! EASY Lessons FOR NEW LEcoMPToN EDIroRs
- The Lecompton politicians neglect the
training of their new editors, and by this
means. the latter fall into sad mistakes One
Of the greatest Of their blunders is that of
foaming and frothing at Mr. Broderick. in
uumberless soda. water squibs. We ought to
let,thcm do it, perhaps, as their ignorance is
all our gain, but We have not the heart to
withhold from: these eseinexperienced gentlemen,
little of the secret history of the late Le
compton State Convention. 1t is, perhaps
generally known that Mr.. Broderick is not a
candidate for any Office this fall, and that he
Is only desirOus that the people should, at the
ballot box, say what they think about Le-
comptonism in the abstract. Therefore
when the real Democracy assembled at Sac
ramento, on the 4th inst, he, not being a del
egate in the Sta te Convention, did not visit
that assemblage, and made no endeavor to
suggest any action for that body, further than
to say to some of his own friends that demo.
cratic conventions should have for their mot
to- Principles, not Men" The Democratic
Convention did put forth platform of prin
ciples and expressed no opinions as to indi-
viduals. So much for the action of the anti.
Lecompton Convention; now for a little
peep behind the curtain of the Lecompton
State Convention. Many of the delegates in
the Lecompton Convention desired to de.
nounee in the most ferocious language, David
g. Broderick. Brags were loudly made. pre-
yious to the Convention, that this would be
done. 1t transpired, however, that in the
| Convention were leaders, who were firm
friends to Mr.. Broderick, and who would
Kick up precious row if the Phiistnes
should dare to molest their Sampson. They
stopped any such action. Mr. Broderick,
being something of a tacticisn, and having
Ihuch positive strength in their Convention.
aud desiring little political exercise, did
most positively decide that he would not be
denounced by the factionists, and he was not

introduction of resolution, there can be no
DOUBT that there would have been disorgan.
izaiion among the disorganizers. To make
amends, some editors think they must now
do what their leaders dared not do in Con.
vention. The policy which dictated silence
IN the Convention, is as good now as it was
then We are glad the policy is repudiated
however, for Mr. Broderick's numerous per
q
sonal friends in the Administration party will
no doubt consider themselves invited to leove
by the constant pop gun attacks upon I'll EN-
which are now the mania with the Leeomn
ton organs. The hand of David G. Broderirk
was in the Lecompton Convention, and not
in the Democratic Convention. 1t was hi,
writing, on the wall of Dr. Benton's Church.
which forbade denunciations of him, and the
writing was well needed

TRANSPARENT. The most assinine stupidity,
it seems to US, that was ever displayed IN the
world, is that of the Lecompton press, in cry
ing out that Douglas is now acting with their
side of the house. Douglas, it is true, has
said that. as a general thing, upon every 9TH
er issue but Kansas, he was with the Admin
istration. but that he still stood hy his old
doctrine about constitutions being submitted
to the people lie says "the same question
involved in the Kansas issue may arise on
the application of some other Territory Tor
admission into the Union. | am prepared
now to give notice that whenever that ques
ton shall arise / shall be toa''d maintaining
and uindicating the sans principle Ttich !
hare insisted so strenpousiy should be applied
to Kansas"
Does that look like acting with the Lecomp-
ton crew? THEY say, in their State Platform,
here. that the people have no business to
question the acts of their Representatives,
and they are pledged by the doctrine enunci-
atsd in their platform, to favor the same ac-
ton hereafter in Congress, should similar
case arise, that the Lecomptontes pursued in
the case of Kansas. Their doctrines is, to pay
no attention to the people but merely to those
who lie themselves into the position of the
peoples Representatives. Stephen A. Dou
gas stands where he always did, and this
Lccompton doctrine that is tried to be sugar
coated for Douglas men in this State, is the
very opposite of what their great leader be-
lieves and battles for. Douglas hasn't swal
lowed himself whole, and turned himself
wrong side outward, yet!

Es2y- We desire in the most obedient and
flial manner to express our great qualification
at the tone of the last LH-erHc UAj0R We
think we see in it the evidence that the edi-
tor thereof has not entirely forgotten or de-
parted from the faith Of the fathers, for he
urges upon the Democracy the duty of " re-
curing to first principles" and declares that
the " ancient landmarks Of democracy should
be frequently and clearly exhibited" We
trust that it will be one of his efforts to bring
the benighted Democracy Of LIzerne back to
those great principles inculcated by JEFFER-
son, from which the present miScalled Demo
cratic party has strayed. To do this, he must
repudiate the old Federast who occupies the
Presidential chair, and refuse the leadership
of TooMBs and STEPHENS, who have no regard
for Democracy, except as an ally of Slavery
he must assert the right of the people to gov
ern themselves, and deny that the Constitu-
ton is the broad Aegs with which to defend
and propagate Slavery. When we see this,
we shall know that first principles still
| abide.

Beg We observe in the Columbia Democrat
a call for the meeting of the Keystone Ed-
torial Union," signed by LEVI l.. TATE Presi-
dent, to be held at Pottsville, on the 1lth of
May next. On looking over the columns of
the Denocrat we find that it contains some
half dozen advertisements of character unfit
to go into family, and which no publisher
who has proper estimate of his responsibility
would permit to fill his advertising space.
We consider these Editorial Conventions as
humbugs, as far as any practical results are
contemplated. All the resolves that could be
written would not clean the columns of sor-
did, ayarcious publisher, Of immoral adver-
tisements, as long as they paid well, nor ele-
vate in the least his standard of dignity and
propriety. AS social gatherings they may be
pleasant and our advice to those assembling
at POttsville is, to first pass resolution that
every publisher is competent (or should be-
to conduct his own business, and then to en-
ploy the remainder Of the session in those fes
tiyities for which the craft is proyerbial.

propertydOes not belongtoA but that it belongs

the Old method Of allowing the Sheriff to sell,
