Now and Then.

On the 18th of May 1854, J. B. We'll
Ter was Senator from California On
that day debate arose in the Senate
on a proposition to pay $1,000 to the
Washington Sentinel to report the pro-
ceedings of the Senate. Stuart of
Michigan opposed the measure, and read
an article from the Sentinel of that morn
ing, in which the administration of
Pierce was severely branded for alleged
favors to free soilers, and objected to
such patronage to an anti Democratic
paper. Weller replied to him, and his
remarks are thus quoted in the Con-
gress,onql Globe
"MR. WELLER.-I regret very much
to be compelled to say that two-thirds
of the article which the Senator has
read meets the appreciation of my judg-
ment,aDd l should be hypocrite if I did
not avow it here. Now, sir, the ex-
tracts which the Senator has read from
the Sentinel do not satisfy me that it is
an anti-Democratic paper, nor do I re-
gard the head Of the administration as
the Democratic party! We have GER
tain great principles which we have here
tofore rigidly and faithfully maintained,
and ! am nat disposed TO Sustain the Ad-
naanestrataon, except SO f1r as the Admin
istratson may stand by these principles" 4"
So said Weller in 1854. Ip1S5S. he
joins with the chivalry wing of his party
in denouncing as anti Democratic a
stand in opposition to the Administra
! ton when it has deserted its oft-avowed
principles. He, and the men who now
act with him, could denounce the head
of the Administration with impunity
and should those that did as good Dem
ocrats, as long as such action told for the
armies of the chivalry but when differ.
ence with the Administration tells
, against the chiyalry, the tune is changed
at once. at was yoar bull that gored
my OK" The Administration no,c is til,
Democratic party, say Mr. Weller and
all the 'chivs," and whether it stands
by great principles or abandons them
must be sustained as test of democ.
racy.

RoueH AID READY. July ss, 1856


MEssRs. N. p Brown & Co.-Think-
ing that an item or two of what was
thought would take place last evening
in the shape of an immense turn out of
the great and glorious Democracy of
Rough and Ready, would not be out of
the way l furnish it. Well, sir, from
the blowing and gas of certain individ-
uals it was thought that there would
hardly be space enough in our little town
to hold them.
Unfortunately for the glorious De-
mocracy of Rough and Ready the time
was fast approaching for the meeting
and so was the Democracy, but it hap
pened to come from Grass Valley and
Nevada. There is no doubt but that
from their appearance and display of
big flag, and sound of music Oh coming
in to town, that they expected of course
to meet one hundred OF two to give them
a grand reception. From some un-
known cause not single individual was
seen to open his mouth to welcome the
grave and distinguished speakers Mer-
edith, Anderson and the patrioticK Knight.
The time for meeting arrived and from
the looks of some of the glorious of
Rough & Ready, an outsider would
think they were afraid to organize for
fear that Messrs Meredith and Others
would find out they had been sold, as
that prospect of having one hundred or
two to attend fell to some forty, princi-
pally of K. N. extraction, who preferred
to hear music in place of Meredith and
others. The mixed Democracy gather
cred around the stand in front Of Masonic
Hall John Long Judge E. W r
heretofore taking the lead was missing
for this timel made his appearance on
the platform and called for Mr Dunster
to act as Chairman of course he did
The next thing was TO call for Mere
dith to start the big talk, which of
course he did, and said that if an imp
of hell was the nominee of the glorious
Democracy, he would vote for him.
Well, Mr. Anderson followed loud
cheering, from Grass Valley and Neva-
da delegation.) He is mighty big talk
er, but patriotic knight beats him.
The meeting broke up as ii begun with
an apparent dread of doing something
awful. JOE PIKE.

Our duty as public journalist is to de-
nouuce wrong wherever found.
~ We are surprised at the profes-
sions of the Anti-Lecomptonites. They
take particular pains on every public
occasion to declare in the strongest
terms their attachment to the admins
tration of James Buchanan, and by so
doing lose the respec: and support to
great extent of those who are without
party
Evidently the position of the Mud
sills" has not been well considered. If
we mistake not there is but little in the
acts of the present Administration that
any man, whether attached to the prin
ciples of the Cincinnati Platform or not,
can honestly support. After looking
over the enunciations of the platform
and comparing the acts Of James Bu-
chanan with it, and with the acknowl-
edged cardinal measures of the Demo
cratic party, we can see little or nothing
in common between the two. Precept
has been most wofully put in practice.
A palpable estrangement from party
principles is plainly apparent. The
course Of the present Administration has
been 50 divergent from the professed
principles Of democracy. as to retain
scarcely trace or semblance of the
principles anywhere. To profess an
attachment to such wandering, treach-
erous or imbecile A administration reflects
no credit upon the honesty or intelli-
gence of the anti-chivalry wing, and is
like the boy who kept jack-knife to
remember his grand d-mother by till it had
three new blades and two new handles.
We challenge one Douglasite to ap-
pear and point out single measure of
James Buchanan and bis cabinet, he
can consistently endorse. 1t would be
strange that an Administration could be
so corrupt that no act of it could be ap-
proved by an honest man. Perhaps
there may be something meretorious
somewhere in the positions assumed by
james Buchanan, but We would be
pleased to see all the merit disclosed,
and if there be any, then we ask the
pertinent question, is there enough of the
commodity tojustify an honest man who
is prescribed by that Administration for
daring to think and act for himself on
one point alone, in still adhering to the
Administration
A majority of the acts of the Admin
istration must be condemned by the in
telligent Democrat, which justifes him
in pronouncing against the whole in the
aggregate. That lis not Democratic
Administration which retains but one
principle of the party out of many, and
can claim no allegiance from a true
Democrat
In this contest to clear themselves of
an incubus, the Douglas men should
take aposition in open antagonism to the
President, because it really seems to us
shere is nothing in his course so far, they
can conscientiously endorse, or at least
so little, that like one sound apple in a
barrel of rotten ones, it may as well be
thrown out With the rest, or if not thrown
out the barrel should not be endorsed as
sound.
