Gas A HUMBUG For the past six months VIC
have had one of Knapp's Patent Rosin Oil
Lamps in use in our family, and for cheopness
fine, mellow, steady light and neatncss, we pro-
nounce it the best thing we have yet seem The
wealthy mansion can perhaps afford 500 pei
month for gas, but we poor people, who look tt
economy, will do well to give this Tampa thor
Tough examination. 1t gives more light thar
fluid at one halfth cost, is steadier and cheap
er light than gas, has no smoke, dirt or gum o
oil and tallow, nor explosibility of fluid Thi
" non-explosive fluid - is, in our opinion, a non
explosive humbug So 60 to L. F. Pierco's ant
get this new Rosin Oil Lamp and be safe, ant
thank us for calling your attention to it.

LAUGHABLE.-The Patriot last week an
nounced that a gentleman from Montpelier, W
P Badger, had so far lent himself to the slav
: power as oget an election as pro-slavery Ma
tional Democrat to the Territorial Legislator
of Kansas A correspondent of the Bosto
Journal gives us a specimen of this gentle
, mans doings as follows:
There are three pro-slavery or National Den
ocratic members of the Territorial Legislator
-Messrs. Badger Bennett and Miller. MI
Badger introduced a memorial yesterday, ft
the Assembly to present to Congress, prayin
that the Calhoun Constitution might not pa
: that an Enabling Act for new Conventio
might be enacted, and that after that CONVEX
ton should have framed Constitution, and I'll
people ratified it by their votes, the Presider
, should have power to admit Kansas to the III
ion under it as sovereign State, without an
action from Congress. The memorial was III
3 derstood to be an Administration measure, an
| never before saw any movement pounced on
ferociously in any Legislative body Speech a
ter speech was made pitching into the Admir-
istration with wonderful vigor, urging that tt
olive leaf should be accepted from it, and thu
! we should carry out the principles of Squatt
Sovereignty by framing our own Enabling A
3 in the Territorial Legislature. Poor Mr. Badg
! was nearly overwhelmed in the torrent of indi
nant oratory, and when the vote was taken
' stood solitary and alone. Euery other memb
. of the House uOted against The measure.
The PRoPosITIoN TO PURCHASE BRITISH NoR1
AMERIcA.-Some of our thin-skinned Canadi;
cotemporaries have taken Mr.. Campbel's re
G olution, recently offered in the House, in sorio
: earnestness. The Toronto Colonist is ve
h much excited on the subject, and relieves itse
It thus:
r Commend us to America Free-soilers
}, matchless impudence And commend us
g pecially to Mr.. Campbell of Ohio, for the
: frontery with which an opponent of Walker
e Central American forays, himself proposes

l. telegraph btells an almost unintelligibe tale
d Mr.. Campbells effort in Congress yesterda
e We gather, however, that he proposes
