FoRGoT THE BABY.-On Friday last a
large number Of persons made an eXcur-
sion in the cars to FMrview, short lis
tance below this Borough, to enjoy them
selves pleasantly in the woods. Shortly
after their arrival the mother of child
three months old, placed it in the care Of
an aunt. In the evening when the cars
were about to return to the city, and the
child was fast asleep on the ground in the
grove. the aunt started in search of her
bonnet She had just sufficient tims to re-
turn and get on board the train. Not OBJ
serving the child in her hurry she suppo-
sed the mother had taken it, but unfortu-
nately thetwo ladies got into different cars
each supposing the othsr TO have the child,
so that il was not ascertained until the ar.
rival of the train at the depot, corner of
Broad and Prime streets, that it had been
left behind. The father Immediately hired
a hack and returned to the grove, andwas
overioyed to learn that female, living in
the neighborhood, had had her attention
attracted to the sleeping infantry the bark
ing of dog, and had it taken home. Here
the father found it, and was on his return
TO the distracted mother and aunt,who, as
NAV be expected, were oveTioyed at the re
turn of the child; Norai-Always look

change, purchased some ice recently, and
finding it very wet, laid it out to dry in
the sun. on going to look for it again, he
found that it had disappeared, and fourth.
Nth accused the whole chinese neigh.
bourhood of larceny. A general riot was
the consequence. This is about as good as
an anecdote we heard the other day abou;
a lady ofthe Irish persuasion. Biddy had
just arrived and obtained place to do
general homework, soon after which she
innocently inquired of her mistress how
the ice was to be dressed and whether it
was to be cooked for dinner

DEATII OF REY. ELEAzAR WmIAWS--We
are informed that the Rev EIeazar VIII
MAMs' more genarlly known perhaps as
claiming to be the Dauphin Of France, de-
ceased az Hogansburgh, New York, at g
o'clock, on the morning Of the 2Sth Au-
gust. His last words were: "Lord Jesus
Christ have mercy ON me, and receive my
spirit" For some time back, we have ob-
served in our exchanges announcement of
his indisposition, which seems has resulted
fatally.

A man in Ohio lately cutdown a null
berry tree and split il, and in the heart of
it found black snake. The wood was
sound where the snake was lying and not
room enough for it to turn round. From
the growth of the timber, it's supposed
that it had been there some fifteen years
The snake was six feet in length, blind,
and Lad no use of itself except its head.

any serious objection to proceedings in Kansas He
maintained the legality of the territorial authorities,
the binding force of the law of the 10th February,
directing the election for delegates to constitution
al convention on the 18th of June following, and we
believe insisted that the people should vote in order
to be felt aud needed There is pretence that
there any fraud committed at the election of the
18th of june and that the last contest involving
AN expression of the people touching the scope and
authority of delegates to ordan constitution. Ii
is said by Mr. Douglas Mr.. Wise and others, that
nearly half the counties of the State had neglected
to take census and make registration ofvoers and
alleges "as great central fact in opposition to this
conclusion, that although there was no registry or
census in nineteen Counties the resident population
had predetermined pote This certainly dsproves
the assumed fraud and disfranchisement and re-
lieyes the of all embarrassment in respect to the
June election The census and registry reached ten
thousand in other counties, while only two thousand
and quarter voted This fact goes far to fortify
Mr. Stanton's statement and is explicit against the
position of Mr. Douglas inregard to the contest of the
18th Of June But if Mr. Douglas thought it his duty
to protest against the in which the dele
gates chosen nearly eight months ago, he will
pardon us for expressing little surprise that a
man of his franlSness and activity should withhold
his opinions upon the subject till the meeting of Con
gress. lfho comedies the regularity Of that cleo
ton, on the better knowledge of Mr.. Stanton-con-
cedng, too that neither enabling acts nor submis-
sion necessaryit follows that he must hang all
his objections upon the assumed frauds in the cleo
ton of the 2lst December In respect to the latter
granting the utmost that has been asserted they do
not impeach the validity of the constitution or the
fact that the majority of the cast were in favor
of its ratification as it is now before Congress-
Mr.. Douglass objections then, come too late.
The election Of the 2lst of December did not in
volve the validity Of the constitution. He has en-
dorsed the law of the 10Th February; and there is
no force at all in the points raised against the cleo
tion of the 18th June, except such as refer to the
non-voting population of the nineteen counties
whose alleged disfranchsement is abundantIy de-
MED by "the great central fact disclosed by Mr..
Stanton that they had no confidence in the territo-
rial government. and would not vote.

4 VOICE FROM ooNNEcrIcur.

Ma. EprroR: The opposition of all kinds seem 10 NJ
making great exertions to convince the country that the
democracy of the North opposed TO the admission Of
Kansas into the Union with the Lecompton constitution
| do not pretend TO know how il may be elsewhere but
of this State from having for twenty-five years bated
private soldier in their steady and indomtabe ranks
At the late presidential election gave Mr. Buchanan
thirty five thousand votes, by two thousand than
were ever cast before for any presidential candidate At
the succeeding State election chose two our four
representatives his supporters in Congress- and one
doubts but that the coming April contest we shall
carry the hammer his patriotic administration mo
glorious and overwhelming triumph The universal
feeling of democratic is to stop the eternal
screeching about bleeding Kansas By the quickest pgaai
cable and constitutional process and hundreds of late ou
ponents most heartily join in the sentiment Our
yeomanry and mechanics, constituting the strength of
the democratic party, remaining quietly upon their farms
and in their shops have rejoiced to see the late rabd
and anateal excitement most dsgracefu to free and
intelligent people almost utterly die out and succeeded
by a calm and thoughtful reliance upon the wisdom Of
the Executive and the provisions Of the constitution
We the frank and file Of the northern democracy
have sympathics with the vagares of restless and dis
appointed politicians who wish to rule rn and who
vainy imagine that wisdom will die with them" We
are in favor of the immediate admission of the Territory
of Kansas into the Union eh the constitution framed by her
eqaliychon constitutional con,sa,o and if the act is con
summaed we will endorse it, and the whole course Of
our patriotic Chief Magistrate in relation to it, at the bal
lot box on the first Monday of April.

THE KANSAS MESSAGE.

Errao from letter from Of The mort Distinguished demo
cra,s in Pennsylvania echo aros The intimate personal and
political friend Of General Jacksn) 10 gentleman in
his city.
..My DEAR Sir Mr.. Buchanan will be so crowded
with thanks for his noble message that should have
very little chance of being heard But am really
ous to saw to him how much its manly tone and lucid
argument have impressed me. He
reminds me of General Jackson, by the in which
he takes his stand fearless for himself appealing to the
sober second thought of his countmen jealous for the
Union and feel confident now did in the dark
est hours the bank campaign that however the storm
may howl there is Inc of light in the horizon which
promises q bright tomorrow.
Say to the President much of this for me as he
may have leisure to listen to but at least give him my
thanks for having met the emergency as he has done

We give, in another column, from the Mobile
Register the result of public meeting in relation to
the Walker -Paulding affair. Ii will be that the
good people OF Mobile feel a very interest in
maintaining the sovereign rights of the government
Of Nicaragua and justly sensitive at any viola
ton of the conceded power Of Congress TO determine
all acts of the part of the federal Union. SO
far we heartily concur with our Mobile friends Dis
obedience to the laws Of free country, like ours is
far more to be reprobated and condemned than kin
dred acts under despotc rule. The law, in the Uni
ted States, mbodes a public judgment of it's APP
proval as well fixes rule for the government of
individuals We so, then, little further than the
people of Mobile, and insist that the expedition of
Gen. Walker was fitted out and moved in express
violation Of act Of Congress and should be con
deinned such

AN ARGUMENT ABANDONED.

One Of the principal objections that have been
urged against the Lecompton constitution by those
opposed to it is, that by the 14th section of its
schedule slavery is fixed upon the people of Kansas
until after the year 1864. This argument however,
formally abandoned by Mr.. Wilson, of Massachu-
setts, in his late speech in the Senate He said ::
:" But we are now told by the President that we can
change this constitution before 1864 l hare no
doubt Of that. beliere the people haze the right to
change their constitution 1Shen they please, and ju1 hop
they please" If this be soand we fully with
Mr. Wilson that it s--why not let Kansas come into
the Union under the Lecompton constitution By
so doing inAct no wrong upon her people for if
majority of them are opposed to slavery they have
a right to call convention the moment she becomes
a State, and amend their constitution accordingly.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.

The phrensy into which the Presidents message
upon the admission of Kansas into the Union has
thrown this pretentous philosopher is amongst the
most refreshing spectaces of the season. If is not
that simply of cool, deliberate philosopher losing
his equanimity for moment it is far otherwise.
We have presented to u.s. in all its most attractive
forms the very ecstasy of passion the most ludicrous
contortions of impotent rage Our philosopher
raves, fumes, gnashes swears no drunken fish
woman in the pory could regale her audience
with more choice epithets than the Tribune heaps
upon the head of the President nor could she
possibly portray nature corrupt or degrade
ton more despcabe.
The perversions and misrepresentation of the Tri-
bune upon all subjects are known and acknowledged.
1t feeds its readers upon the choicest fab
relations served up in all varieties every day. Its
readers are used to the fare the men and horses
of some countries come to do pretty well upon ar
senc as condiment. The Tribune would not be it.
SELF anything like ITSELF if truth in any shape, or
justice, could find place in its columns. II is not,
then. to be wondered at that the great luminous and
mastery message of the President should meet with
the most trucuent denunciation at its hands. But
the farcical rage into which the freeove phianthro-
pist precpitates himself is not to be wondered AZ.
Like the little partcolored animal that robs hen
roosts philosopher not only scratches and bites,
but lie does He. reserves for his hour of
greatest need, to be used in moments of deepest
peril or wrath the sack of fetid putrescencc with

THE MAJoRITy-We all ought to know Just what
these two little words signify but six months ad
ditonal controversy in Kansas about their meaning
we much fear will overthrow all past conceptions of
their proper place in the English language. The
word majority in reference to elections, signifies the
greater of two parties, party exceeding all
others in numbers. The pollliss must be consulted
TO ascertain who the side of the majority In
all political affairs the rule of the majority is ac-
knowledged as the basis of our representative de-
mocracy but it is also acknowledged that voters
alone can be counted Any other rule would destroy
the government. If persons refusing to vote are to
be counted il is manifest we can have no elections
The republican press, and some of our demoNatic
friends, talk about their majorties in Kansas with
as much confidence and authority if they had Just
footed up election returns. Now we want to know
what your maortes were in June last, when you no.
torousy refused to vote at the election of delegates
to the constitutional convention? What We're your
maioritics on the 2lst of December when you re-
fused to vote again upon the constitution then just
framed? Where, indeed, do you find your maiori-
ties Are they voters That is an important
queston--are they voters2 II they are voters then
tell us if they voted the 18th of June for that
precisely the time to be felt If they did not vote,
how have you packed them into majority We
really would like to know
