SOMETHING IN A NAME.-A general be-
lief exists that there is nothing in a name.
Such a view was held by Shakespeare
But the pecui,iary difference between one
name and another exists sometimes. At
Yale College, at the present time, the mar
kel value of a name is $500 per annum.-
A gentleman named De Forrest diod seye-
raj years ago and made Yale College the
trustee of sum Of money, the interest on
which permanent fund amounts to $500
per year. This $500 derived from that
permanent fund is Annually given to any
student in Yale College whose name is De
Forrest.

A leading democratic senator lately said
thatif the opposition were sensible, they
would so utterly destroy the democratic par
ty that it would never be heard Of again.
The States, Douglas Washington organ
says there is no longer democratic party.
The Union, NJ. Buchanan's organ, declares
that it is not to be denied that the admin
stration has no party in congress. Mr. Bu-
chanan says that he can recommend no
measure that will receive the support Of a
majority of the democrats in congress
Where, then, is democracy! The dcmoc-
aacy of jefferson and jackson was long ago
kicked overheard The democracy Of the
Declaration Of Independence, is hercsy
worthy Of the stake in the pigger demo.
cratic party Of this day. Sill the sonti-
ment Of true democracy remains in the
hearts of the people. 1t only remains that
they understand well the issues now made,
and the men who have attempted underthe
name of democracy 10 lead them into the
support of all the demands Of the niggeI
drivers, will be buried under the curses Of
an outraged people.

Col. Fornoy,s Review aud Anathcma.


Col. ForneJ editor Of the Philadelphia
Press. made James Buchanan President of
the United States. In letter written by
him from Washington 10 his Press, dated
March 4,h, 1859, Col. F. thus reviews and
pointcdly condemns;
Two years ago this day, James Buchanan
took his seat in the Presidential Chair, the
most popular Of our Chief Magistrates since
the days Of George Washington. All par
ties stood willing to trnst him. His inau-
gural address was accepted by every section
with unalloyed pleasure. His long public
life induced even those who refused to sup
port him iu SO, TO repose a generous conf
dence in his administration. He held in
his hand the destinies of happy country.
He was clothed with rare advantages, and,
had he been animated by Conscientious pat
riotisrn, he would have consolidated The
Democratic party in every State in the Tn
ion, and paralyzcd and prostrated all its adj
Yersaries.
Where does he stand to-dayi Utterly
bankrupt and broken-his administration
dishcrorod before the world The great
party which carried him into office, after in
finite labor and expense, torn into fragments.
Corruption like pestilence, so peryading ev-
cry department of government, that Demo
Gratis, admit the fact with pain and shame,
and Republicans point to it with exultiug
Indignation.
A withered financial policy, an incapable
foreign policy, Cabinet divided upon prin-
ciplc, aud united only by the mercenary mo-
tive of selfpreservation. No advocates to
hold up or strengthen his hands. No in
trepid statesman ready to come forward in
the spirit of honest sacrifice and plead in
his behalf before an outraged country. No
high-mindod journalist, devoting himself to
the vindication of his conduct. Nothing
but aversion and contempt.
The sentiment first uttered in this jour
nal eighteen months ago, which, when ut
tered, startled so many honest men, name.
1 ly: 'that the way for the Democratic party
to recover its strength and maintain au ef-
fectivo and powerful organization, is TO cut
loose from the Notwithstanding sent
mcut is now everywhere accepted as tho
only remedy by wnlch democracy eau ever
re-ascend in the affections and confidence o
the masses.
There is no middle ground. Ifthe yosng
who glory in the traditions and name o
the Democratic party, and who, fired BY al
houorablc ambition, look forward to receive
the votes Of the people, they can do 50 onl.
by rejecting ali responsibility or connection
) with the present administration.
Couycaiions may assemble al HarrisbgT;
or at Albany, or at Trenton, or at Coam
bus, to vindicatc their party crceds, and ex
press a hollow confidence in tho Admins
lration. Tammany Hall may roar througl
its hundreds of official mouths sweet praise
} upon the men now in power, but the mass
es of the Democratic party will be conten
with nothing short Of the banishment fror
: their favor Of the faithless servants, VIII
starting out with violation of politics
principle, have eliminated in a series Of stu
pendous acts, morally infamous and unre
Iievedly black.

The German Republicans Of Toledo, at a
large meeting held in that city the other
day, prepared memorial to the people Of
Massachusetts, asking them not to impose
further restraint upon naturaized citizens BY
requiring them to be two years residents of
the State after they have received their
naturalization papers, before they can be
allowed the privilege Of the elective fran
chise Wethink their plea is Just and right,
and shall very much regret if the people of
Massachusetts, establish such clause in
their constitution.

In The rapid progress which The nigger
democracy Is over making towards total
subieelion to the slave power itis ncodful
as often rs onco in ninety days to take bear
ings and find its true position. Hho Mis-
souri, Cornpromise shut slavery forever out
Of all territories Of tho United States north
Of 36o 30'. Che democracy repealed this
restriction, and has since passed through all
the degrees, until the south now demands
that slavery shall not only have the same
right as freedom to 60 into all the ter
ritorios, but demands further, that it shall
be protected by positive legislation of con
gress. Thus no territorial legislation can
shut out the black curse, because federal
legislation will of course override all terri
torial laws. This, then, is the latest de-
mand of the slave power: Slavery must be
admitted into all the territories and protect
ed there by the laws and arms of the Uni
ted States This demand Mason, Slidell
and Davis made in the great debate just be-
fore congress adjourned. On this platform
every presidential candidate who appears
at Charleston in 1860 must come,--or
lose the support ofthO south. Douglas and
Pugh and all the northern democratic sen
ators declared that with this plank in the
platform the democratic party at the north
was utterly ruined. They had already
gone to the verge of ruin in submitting to
the demands of the slave power-farther
they could not and would not 90. If they
cannot take the platform with this plank in
IL where will they go' Their southern
masters will not yield by the breadth of a
hair.

Slavery exists in Cuba in mitigated
form. The slave can buy himself or
an undivided portion" of himself, whenev
er he demands it, making tender of the
money. If he acquires fractional indie
pendence, he becomes entitled to proper
tionate share Of his time and earnings. II
his master maltreats him, he is allowed a
certain number of days in each year to find
new purchaser. He can have his child
ren legally declared free by paying $25, in
Court, at tho birth Of each. Negroes in
Cuba have rights which white men are
bound to respect.
