s55- The news by TIE Overland Mail is
that there is prospect of a duel between
Senators Douglas and Fitch 1t was but
short time ago that two other Lecompton
Senators were venting their malignant spleen
upon the great Illiuoisian. They love him,
vastly these Leeomptonites. There is every
evidence that he is with theml People will
believe that peace is made with Douglas, and
that he is a good Administration man, when
the Administration Senators like him SO
much
1t will be remembered that Fitch is one Of
the Bogus Indiana Senator's elected by an
inscriptions faction in direct violation of the
Constitution Of that State, and admitted to a
seat in the Senate Of the United States, in
the face Of this fact by shameless Lecomp.
ton majority. Judge Douglas opposed his ad
mission, and Fitch, with the narrowness that
characterizes minds of the stamp of his, hates
him for doing his duty,
There seems to be dead set against Doug.

what they will make of it. If the people
do not visit it tenfold upon their heads, we
have mistaken that sense Of right which

YREKA LIBRARY-We are Informed that
the Committee appointed by the Ladies Sew.
ing Circle, are preparing for the purchase Of
books, with the funds realized from the La
dies Fair last Christmas. 1t is said, and to
the honor of our ladies' that so soon as these
arrangements are completed, and the books
obtained, that they propose holding another
Fair with the view of rendering their library
still more complete
Preparation is being made by different
property holders, to commence the work OF
building as soon as Spring shall sufficiently
" open to admit of it. Among others, Mr..
Greathousc proposes putting upa two story
brick. on the north west corner of the vacant
lot fronting on Miner and Main streets. 1t
is anticipated that extensive improvements
will be made in Yreka during the progress
Of the coming summer.
From present indications, the severity of
winter is over, though it is still stormy and
unpleasant There is now an abundance of
water for mining purposes and, if the wealth
er does not grow colder. gold dust will soon
be taken out in great abundance.

INQuEsr.-An inquest was held, yesterday.
by Coroner Counts, on the body of Oscar or
Joseph Nell, who was found, at 7 o'clock in
the morning dead in his bunk on board the
Sam Soule. Quite n number of witnesses,
persons employed on the boat, were exam:n
ed but the only facts ascertained were that
deceased was n German, that he had been
employed as deck hand on the steamer, and
was noted for his correct habits and attention
to his duties. A post mortem examination
WAS G.ade by Drs Simmons and Taylor, whc
testified that all the organs of the body were
found healthy, with the exception of the
brain. Pressing upon the left side Of the
organ, Just beneath the vertex or top Of the
head, there was found sharp piece of bone
embedded in the dura mater, around which
there were evidences of chronic Inflammation
and eifusion From the investigation. the
physicians were OF opinion that no recent in
jury had caused the diseased appearances
but that at some former period, a blow or
fall had occasioned fracture of the inner Ia
ble of skull, which had led to chronic infiam
nation and compression of the brain In
the opinion of the doctors, the injury above
referred 70 had caused the mans death.-Sdc.

Mr. Frazer Is among our most respectable citi
zens, long resident of this city, and for the rea-
son that he is son of Ireland, the DoMoCRAr en-
deavors to castridicule on his name-Express.
How very sweet our Rosewater organ is
getting to be. Its proprietors, of course, are
the only true fiiends of our naturalized citi-
zens. How was it with them in 1855? Y es,
and how was it with them last September,
when John Il. Gilmore and Thomas Powers.
two respectable Irish born citizens, were reg.
ularly nominated by a Lecompton Conven-
tion for Constables? The Express would not
put their names in the Administration ticket,
at the head Of their columns, although the
nominee Of the same Convention for Supervi-
sor wds placed upon the ticket Every Irish
man in Marysville was outraged by their un
precedented course. We then said so. We
called public attention to the glaring slight
put upon Gilmore and Powers. Mr. Gilmore
waited for the Express to voluntarily make
amends, but in vain. He then went, as we
are informed, to that paper and demanded to
know why his name was not put in the pa.
per- At last these wonderful friends of their
Irish fellow citizens, after delaying for days,
did yie@d to tie pressure and Gilmore and
Powers were placed in the Lecompton ticket,
at the head Of the Express To cover up the
delinquency the Lecomptonites went through
the motions Of nominating Justices although
it was first decided to nominate none, and
although there was no regular committee to
make such nominations, so far as appears by
any record Of their proceedings. We are
willing to have our naturalzed citizens Judge
of Us 10y our uniform conduct, and have no
fears that anything we have said concerning
Mr. Frazier will be misconstrued into any
disrespect towards them The Irish of this
city know US too well to have any doubts
about our uniform personal and political
friendship for them.

The Benson CAsE.-Tho San joaquin Re
publican has the following touching the
matter:
An inquest was held on Tuesday, at Ben.
sons Ferry, on the body of John A. Benson.
The inquest was held by Justice Mills, he
not being aware that Coroner Bond had been
apr ointed. The verdict was that deceased
came to his death from pistol ball fired bv
Green Palmer We learn that Mrs. Palmer
and BenSon's friends positively deny that
there had been any criminal intercourse, but
Mrs. 7. admits that Benson had followed her
for some time with improper proposals, and
that he had been repeatedly impored to
keep away from the house by her. Palmer
stated to the neighbors, after the shot had
been fired, that Benson had "tampered" with
Mrs. p, and that he had warned him repeat.
edly to keep away from his house, but Ben
son insisted upon coming, and went so far as
to threaten to blow his head off if he should
dare to interfere. The neiglbors generally
insist that Mrs. Palmer is guilty Palmer
also stated that his wife told him that Ben
son said he would give Palmer 81 900 for his
place if she (Mrs. P.) would stay in the coun-
try and become his mistress, and let Palmer
go home with the children; and that Benson
made the offer of 81 900 TO him, aud after
wards declined to fulfill his bargain. Mrs.
z. had told him thatt the reason was that she
refused to accede to his proposal of rem in
ing. She at one time went to Sacramento
with Benson to sign the deed. This latter
affair is supposed to have been the immedi-
ate cause of the shooting
Palmer was last seen at Stayton's, four
miles from Benson's, about s O'clock that
night He encountered son Of ex-Super-
visor Thompson on the road and told 'him
what he had done, and said he felt justified
in it. He had his revolver in his hand. and
said he intended to deliver himself up, but
would shoot the first man who attempted TO
arrest him. lie applied to Stayton for a
horse to take him to Justice Mills to whom
he wished to surrender himself Stayton
started to catch the horse but while he was
gone Palmer left. 1t is supposed that he was
alarmed by the barking of some dogs and
thought he was pursued

DUUGLAs AND FETcH.-The statement cor
tained in our telegraphic dispatch, of yester-
day morning, in rotation to the difficulty be
tween Senators Douglas and Fitch was prob
ably based upon the.following dispatch to one
of the St. Louis papers:
"NEY York, January 22.-An angry dis
cussion had arisen in the,Senate Chamber. al
Washington, between Judge Douglas and
Senator Fitch, when words were used which
it is thought must lead to duel The de-
bate occurred on the question of confirming
Patten, of Ohio. as Collector of Toledo. Mr..
Pugh opposed Patterns nomination, as the
man displaced was his friend. He said that
if the President desired an issue with him
(Pugh) he was ready for it. lie denounced
the appointment, and called on every Sena.
tor who was his (Pugh's) friend to vote
against it,
Mr.. Douglas responded, saying that he
would vote with the Senator from Ohio. He
then Lranched of on the Illinois appoint
ments, and said they were dishonest, corrupt
and incompetent.
Senator Fitch said that this was ntrue.-
Douglas reiterated his charges, and Fitch
"S"lu salu II WIS untrue. Here occurred
cries of Order! DC Motions We're passed of
various kinds. jeff. Davis said he had lis
tened with Indignation to the language used,
and it was that of a highwayman and bravo
1t is said that the lie was given, and most Sc
we're personal remarks were made"
The precise merits of the case are probably
not yet understood 1t is not clear as to
whether Davis meant to apply his observa-
ton to Douglas or to Fitch or to both.
Daily national Democrat., 1859-02-19

lNsANITY.-Tomaso Refs, says the Sac.
Register, who was ordered by the County
Judge to be removed to Stockton, is still on
the Brig, and his insanity is increasing every
day. lie has not eaten mouthful Of food
for three days. 1t is said that no provision
has been made for the transportation of in.
sane persons fro-n this county to the asylum.
This being the case, we suppose Rcis must
remain where he is, until some officer from
another county shall pass through, and yolun.
teer to take the patient to the asylum, as in
the case Of Roberts. Common dictates of
humanity require that Refs should be re.
moved

rs" Douglas is with the Administration,
SO much so that he arose in the Senate, on
the 22d ultmo, and denounced the action of
the President in the matter of the Illinois
appointments in terms of such whitening re-
luke as to cause a decided commoton in the
assembly. Senator Pugh, Of Ohio, in com
menting upon the conduct of Mr. Buchanan
in removing personal friend of his (Pugh's)
from an office in Ohio, and nominating an
other individual in his place, remarked that
if the President desired an issue with him
(the Senator from Ohio he could have it.
He denounced the new appointment and
called upon any Senator who was his friend
to vote against it. Whereupon the Hon.
stephen a, Douglas, of Illinois, responded
enphotically, that he ,could yote wiM tie
Senator from Ohio This looks as though
the great lllnoisan had surrendered to the
Administration. does it not?

CB The Express, of Friday. makes q
doleful appeal to the Lecomptontes to come
to the rescue of their principles-that is, we
suppose, to the rescue of Federalism. Con-
gressional interference with slavery in the
Territories and the suppression of the free.
dom of the ballot-box for these constitute
the substance ofLecompton principles. Well,
these principles do need to be rescued, that
is fact, and speedily too, for the people are
trampling them under foot every day.

G3s- Gen. Quitman attributed the cause of
his decline, up to the last moment of his life.
to poison, administered to him in the shane
oi arsenic while resident of the National
Hotel, in Washington. He used to assert
that it was mixed with the sugar, and sub
stantiated this BY the fact that during the
entire term of the malady, which afterwards
assumed the name of the hotel, no one was
taken i'll who refrained from the use of that
article.
