A Correct Position.

It will be remembered that we copied
an article sometime ago from the N. Y.
Tribune, showing that that journal was de-
cidedly in favor of the reelection of
Senator Douglas to the United States
Senate. We find in its last issue an arti-
Gle on the late contest in Illinois, from
which we extract the following
ave have very little regard for plat
forms or parties. We saw Senator DoUa-
LAS, who for years had been the most ef-
fective and INSCRIPTIONS among the
Northern servitors of the Slave Power,
thrown by circumstances into the front
ranks of the opposing host. We saw him
hated, for time, by the steadfast cham
pions of that Power, as no lifelong adver-
sary was or could be. Il seems to Us, there
fore, the true policy Of the Republican part,
to interpose itself bctsOees him and the Savers
ErtnaSiOnists. to rally around him and up
hold him on his nei0 platform of practical re-
sistdnce to the behests of the Slave Pot0er
thus enabling the Administration to organ
ize Democratic party of some strength
implacably hostile to him, tchile he Should
b borne By Republican votes triumphant,
back to the Senate. Had this been done
Mr.. Douglas could never more have beer
signally useful to nor trusted by the Slave
Power. His hopes of further advance
msnt must have rested perforce on the
growing Free-Labor sentiment of the
countrV.o

Means 10 be Honast.

A. NJ. BURNS, ESQ.,, of Manhattan,
writes to the Pittsburgh Dispatch letter
in which he takes very sensible view of
the "Gold Mines" We copy
would warn your readers to look up
on all articles from the newspapers pub
lished in the out-ftting border towns
with much allowance. Not that I would
by any means insinuate that the editors
would Intentionally exaggerate, but they
will doubtless be deceived into the publ
cation of matter intended to advance the
pecuniary interests of certain class Of
persons. So far as my belief is concerned,
there is gold in the Pike Peak region,
and no doubt many will acquire wealth
there, while others will spend their outfit
perhaps, without realizing as much as
they expected. But of these things we
cannot say with certainty; the bright side
however, will be painted by the imagina'
ton of those ambitious Of acquiring
wealth Immediately. 1 need not portray
the success that will be anticipated by
many; let nae, however, add that those
who are successful must endure hardshipi
and privations which the imagination o
your eastern people never would have
thought of. Provisions must be hauled
by OK teams from here to Pixies Peak ant
Cherry Creek. The distance is great, ant
the price will be enormous, unless the mar
ket should be over stocked, and it may
be, as 1 find that many persons now il
this country have an idea of commencing
the trade. l have said provisions will b.
dear. So will everything. The expo
sure to the inclemency of the new climate
will of course have tendency to Great,
disease; it cannot otherwise be; the hardy
mountaineer who has been Injured to tn,
privations of the inhospitable wilderness
will stand it; but it will be different will
those who have been raised in the orien
bandbox.
How many others are there in Kansa
who will present the dark side of tn
gold fever to their readers, even by i'm
plication.
