Its appeal to the captains of democra-
cy however is the most laughable part of
its lachrymosical article Who are these
captains? Surely not the men whom the
Buchanan administration has prescribed !?
Not the men who were insultingly inquired
after by high Pennsylvania Oficeholding
democrat at Washington a0hether they acere
still democrats 2 We thought the captains
were on the ground hard at work. There
were several government officials from
Washington-there was our ?. NJ, and
sundry others either holding or expecting
to hold office, blowing forth the glories of
the Buchanan administration from early
morn to the closing of the polls-were
these not captains? Surely the Democrat
would not ask those whom it has denoun-
ced as allies of Black Republicansm be-
cause they would not endorse the insane
measures of the administration, to spend
their time, their money, and their infu-
ence in glorifyng the nest of rotten Office
holders at Washington who are doing their
utmost to destroy every vestige of TRUE
DEMOCRACY, by substituting an espionage
on principle, thought and action, more wor-
thy of despotism than free government; !;
yet it is to these the Democrat now appeals
with the cry of Help me, Cassius, or l
sink"

Close of the 10Th Volume.

The present number completes twelve
years since we have had charge of the Ga
zette. During that time it has been regu-
larly issued every week, with the excep-
ton of late years of 4th of July and
christmas weeks, on which we no longer
profess to publish paper. There are ma
ny "reminiscences in this period, political
and otherwise, to which we could advert,
but as in the main there is but little on
our part to regret, and much to afford graf
ifcation, it is hardly necessary to do so.
Our subscribers seem to be we'll satisfied
with the course we have pursued, as is ev-
idenced blythe commentators so frequent
ly bestowed, even when differing from us
in opinion. As our course has been, so it
will continue, We shall speak fearlessly
on measures either of general or local ma
ture-approving what we believe to be
right, and condemning what we believe to
be wrong or injurious to the masses. In
dong jhis, we may at times oppose friend
rs well as opponent, but that is result
which, III The nature of really free press,
circumstances must govern, for friends may
be wrong as we'll as opponents.
So far as pecuniary matters are concern
ed, we have not much to boast Of The
high prices a few years ago without cor
responding increase in ours, and the present
depression in business, have kept us IN
Ststu qno, giving bare living, even with
The use OF more than ordinary economy
te however have hopes that times will
soon mend, and that the recent expression
of the people Of ,Pbteennnsylvania for a pro-
teetlve tariff, will hasten that much hoped
Ior advent, when perhaps many who now
forget that newspaper or other debt ought
to be paid will remember us and make up
for past deinquencies.

Ma We make the following extracts

HsA- W make the following extracts from
a letter recently received from a resident of
Minnesota, formerly of this county:
LAKE CRY, Minnesota, Oct 20, 1853.
| am very much pleased to hear OF the
change, politically, in my native State. Our
party have triumphed here, which you doubt
less have learned; friend Moses Montgomery,
the democratic candidate for Senator, has been
beaten, Averell, the Republican candidate be-
ing elected The latter is also resident of
our town.
Our city is not improving as rapidly as at
first; in fact, it has, ike most other places,
grown prematurely. We, however, are not
discouraged, as it is natural point for very
extensive country back of us, which is being
rapidly settled, and which is now subject to
pre-emption, by an act of Congress passed last
May. This is the very best thing could have
happened, as the land will now be taken by
actual settlers. Our crops here are excellent,
excepting wheat, which was injured by rust
the weather having been too wet. We are
exporting corn, oats and potatoes. Merchants
here are paying for corn 81 cents, oats 80.
Potatoes are very plenty: hardly know what
to quote the price at We can beat you at
raising almost anything; our soil is the most
productive that have ever seen. Our vege.
CaDleSy tUO, are vi " pttleT uuallly anu
larger growth. The cultivation of the sugar
cane is succeeding finely. 1t is estimated
that there has been 1000 gallons of molasses
made within compass of but few miles in
our neighborhood, some farmers producing
above 200 gallons. 1t is supposed here that
in favorable season for the cane to mature,
that it will produce 200 gallons to the acre
AS yet, the machinery for manufacturing is
of very rude kind, but the quality of the
syrup is far superior to the best New Orleans
| suggested to some of my former acquaint-
ances here to use salt in boiling down the
syrup. which they did, and found it to be a
great improvement; it causes the scum to rise
more rapidly to the surface, clarifies it, and
improves the flavor greatly. Their kettles
Tor pans, rather would not boil down more
than would make half barrel at one time ;
in that quantity they found two large teacups
ful of salt to be sufficient As yet, it is only
experimenting, every one using his own judg-
ment in the matter.
