The Otio State Journal, asks if there is
to bo an Editorial Convention held ON
Franklin's birthday, as usual!
To which the Dayton Journal very aptly
replies:
"Wc trust, if tho Convention assemblies,
it will do something moro than eat and
drink, and pass resolves to bO decent in ed
itorial controversy. These things are all
well cuongh; but there ought to be some
business rules established in regard TO price:
of newspapers, advertising, ETC., which
should be mllexibly adopted. The great
est drawback on the printing business now,
is ''ratting,' among publishers. A scale oI
prices for advertising, especially, should be
liked on and lived up to. "Working fol
nothing and finding yourself" ought to be
speedily discontinued"
That is about tho way We feel on the sub
ject.

"Hurrah hurrah for Obsrlin;"
Away they went in haste
Adown the streets the fugitive
BY joyous friends was chased,
And back beneath tho stars pale light
With merry hearts we came;
While brave Kentuck ard Marshal Lowe
Skunk back with brows Of shame.
They begged to go thoir way in peace
Without a certain dress
Made up of feathers and of tar;
We pitied their distress.
Nor gave to thom the coat and ride
Such rascals do deserve
When in such deeds they're fairly caught,
Or in such business serve.
Right merrily we ran and rode
Back to our classic town;
With joyous hearts, that honorcd night
TO rest wo laid us down.
A noble deed in Freedoms cause
We'd done that happy day; MAN
From Slavcry's grasp we d snatchcd A
May wo do thus alway.

THE sOnROws OF OFFICEHOLDING

THE SORROWS OF OFFICEHOLDING.
The position of an oflicobolder under Mr.
Buchanan, however delightful it may be, is
not all sweetness. To be an official of th,
federal government is no doubt honorable
and profitable, and excessively tickling tC
human vanity, but there is after all n droE
of bitterness which must bo tastod.--
Uncle Sans "ossfcrs" arc no doubt greater
than other men. The dignity Of a state of
fetal is as nothing in comparison, but there
arc one or two things which still reminC
these men Of greatness that they are still
mortal. Mr.. Buchanan has not only carried
out tho rulo that all his appointces must bc
of his party; but be has gone n step furth
or and insisted that they should take all hi
presidential opinions MS law and gospel
If he changes they must change. If h'
says at one time that the people of Kansas
shall have no constitution forced on them
this to be the creed Of fliceholdcrs-whilc
it lasts. If at another timo hc says tha
Lccompton ought to bo taken by the peo
pie Of Kansas, willing or unwilling, VIII,
then this is the officoholders creed. l
learns these officials to watch well the cours'
of executive opinion, lest while advocating
what was the presidents creed with zeal, h
should suddenly find his head in the baske
for not knowing that tho president has cas-
off the old doctrine and got the new.
Just at present there is another crop o
peas in the officehollcrs' shoes. They SCI
that Mr.. Buchanaa is going down and Mr
Douglas is going up. They want to shou
for Douglas in order to secure future holc
on the treasury tcat; and they must shou
for Buchanan if they would not lose the tea
that is now in their mouth. Thoy rcall,
don't know whether they arc whistling o
singing, crying or laughing. They are OBJ
jects of compassion. Their sufferings is in
tolerablc." With all tho greatness apt
glory which belongs to a federal official
wo think that just now and under Mr.. Blu
chanan, we should rather dwell in the vale
of private life.

Southern View of the British
Right Of search.

We see il stated in the papers tina. the ground
{ of defence on tie part of the British cruisers,
for forciblv overhauling onr coasters in the
Gulf Of Mexico is, that they are only looking
ont for pirates. That, as by law OF tire
I United States, it is rendered piracy For any
citizen Of the United States to bring slaves
into the United States, they take our coasters
into their rhlanthropic and. imperial super
vision, and propose to protect us from the ri
rates who may bring slaves into the United
States, by seizing them on the high seas, and
hanging them in Jamaica. Here again, we
see tn" hnmilating position in which the
| United States are pnt by our absurd legisIa
! tion with rrsnnct to the African slave trade
| AS nitrate is iostis hrmnne gcneris. no crui-
ser Of any nation. il is supposed. car he blam-
| ed for ascertaining whether vessel is a pirate
or not. Hence the cruisers Of every nation in
| the world have right to coma npnn orr coasts
| and overhaul every vnssel which they think
proper 70 suspect of being engaged in the AZ.
| rican ,sl,ve tradn-the laws of the United
States declaring them pirates. .H
ground for interference from that which has
heen assumed nm the cnas. Of Africa. Great
Britain claimed right Of visitation of Ameri-
can vessels IN the coast Of Africa, simply To
ascertain whether the vessel was American or
not. Such vessel CARRYING slavcs TO Cuba or
Brazil was not pirate; she was merely enga-
god in IN illicit tra,ie. To bring slaves into
the United States only is piracy. The ground
now assumed is. that slaves are being IMPORT
ed from Africa into the United Statns; and this
hy orr laws. being riracv, British cruisers
have a right 10 detect the PIRACY and suppress
lit. Hence. British naval police hv our own
laws. is created over the coast of the United
States. This Is the position.
Now. in all frankness, We must confess thai
there is great force in this position if assumed
by Great Britain. There is no question that
the cruisers of every nation nnder the sun have
right to seize on the high seas and condemn
pirates. in any port in the world. Pirates be-
long to no nation. All nations are interested
to DESTROY them, a"d.the flag of no nation can
protect them. Hence il is the right, as it is
the duty Of the cruisers of all nations TO ascer-
tain whether vessel on the high seas is a pi-
Fate or nor. As all vessels on our coast bring
ing slaves into the United States are pirates bv
the laws of the Untel States. why should not
British cruisers ascertain, by search and ex-
animation. whether they are pirates -or not p
This is the position, and it is not wi thnut
strength.
