4 Suggestion Relative to "Col.
ForbeK.ss
Edituss rze.s and Tribune:
I notice that the persons who have "Col.
Forbes" in charge have shipped him to Torou-
to or some other secure hiding place in one Of
tbeCanadas- Good againl doubt not that
before Congress appoints its committee to 'it
Forbes l. Co., the entire res,duum of TINT per-
sonuge 70 will hare sailed for rEnglaad-~heuce
it will be easy to send him back to Sicily and
lose him somewhere between Scylla and Cha
rybdis. Obviously, tho plan row is to get rid
of. Col. Forbes" in some wny not positively in-
credible, and without the necessity Of appoint
ing Coroaer's jury to sit on him-whereby it
might be disclosed that there was nothing to sit
on! suggest to old Mr.. Bennett and to Mr.
Watts Sherman, {who, understand, is capi-
ta'ist,) that they send Col. Forbes with the
next Arctic Expedition in search Of Sir Jobn
Franklin's men. It would be perfectly easy to
hare him carried of on cake Of Ire, and sucked
iuto Symmes' Hole. II. W

CAWERON AND LkNCOANs
We observe that an article from the Ian
caster (PA) Examiner and Herald, is being
copied into certain Illinois papers, recon-
ncnt;ng Simon Cameron Of Pennsylvania, for
President and Abraham Lincoln Of Illinois,
for Tiee President as the ticket which would
certainly secure majority Of the electoral col
lege next year. The use which the Lancaster
Journal here makes Of a communication which
once appeared in oNr columns, authorizes us to
say word Fin the premises. We think these
Psesident-makers hare commenced altogether
TOO early. We think the people may be trust
ed to make tic proper decision ut the right
time. But it the persons, who have COM
n need the agitation, insist upon having a
ticket consisting Of Cameron and Lincoln, we
fancE tho Republicans Of tho Northwest will
Insist upon turning it eud for end, 50 that it
may read LINCOLN FOR president, and Cam
eron for Vice President We think they will
prefer to put tho strongest man at the top Of
the ticket instead Of the bottom We
axe as fully warranted in demanding
the nomination Of Mr. Lincoln for
sks Presidency as tue Lancaster people arc in
calling for that Of Mr.. Cameron. Whatever
claim may be asserted in Pennsylvania in view
Of the greater vote which that State casts in the
electoral college, is balanced By the greater
services which III. Lincoln las given to the
Republican party and by his wider personal
popularity. Illinois gave Lincoln majority
Of her votes last fall Penusy2vania has never
given Cameron a minority Of her votes in 9
general election, nor, we believe, has hle
strength eTor uecu tested before the people
he may bo rery great farorite with the
masses, but wo do not know it. 1lncoln's
strength has been tested in the sevcEest politi'
cal strifa Of this generation.
We make these suggestions not to insis1
that tho Republican party Of the Union shal
nominate Ar. Lincoln for the Presidency, bu
to state what sort Of ticket we should prcfe
10 auoshcr sort Of a ticket. The Lancaste
-Eraminsr's article was pEintedin circular form
and distributed throughout Illinois BY Dr.: Lett
We'd not know whether lo got them print
ed on his own account, OF whether Mr. Cume
ron authorized him to act in the premises Blu
wo d. know that Mr. Lincoln has not give
him any warrant OF any other man au1horit
for the use made Of his name.

Irishuen are supposed to have prcscriptirc
right to say aud do the queerest things ia the
uueesest way. but about the queerest Of all
things that have been talked about By the sons
Of tie Emerald Isle, is the proposition to raise.
for Pope Pins the Ninth, m army from the sons
Of the old Sod, to consist Of about 5000 men,
for which the Catholic countries Of Europe and
America nre to be assessed At the rate Of
elo0, per annum. This will be just IS per.
annum per MANA mere drop in the bucket.
Therefore it is to be presumed that The HOLY
Father himself ia to raise the balance but how,
is not hinted at. The subsidies for this paper
army are divided among the several natiopali-
ties in the following proportions by the Dun
tialk Democrat, an ont-and-out Roman Catholic

pxsvEa Ct1r, Nov. 6, 1853.
Nr DEAR FR1zSn You have probably BY
this time concluded that my promise to write
you WAS not AZ honest one. The only excuse
and a good one, think, have to offer, was
that I did not wish to send you my opinion Of
this country until had been hero long enough
to form BY actual observation, IN accurate one,
Little did l think one year and half ago, wheu
located in Chicago, that should be so near the
great Pacific, but such is the fact. Now, where
but two years ago, The lone hunter and the
Stalking savage werc the only rational beings
who inhabited this vast region, are springing up
villages reared md filled by the energetic dcs-
cendants of our sturdy forelathers. But am
getting prosr, aud will come to facts which /
hope will interest you.
First, Us you are somewhat interested in pol
itrcs, will briefly touch On that subject. Here,
ii 10 other places, we hare to fight agaiast the
demon slavery, and the frauds Of those who pro-
sess to work for the 4.prcscrvation ofthe Union."
The same border ruf1iAn scenes in Eastern Ran
sas will probably have to be repeated here ere
the banner of Freedom shall ware over this
region Of country. The pro-Slavery men, in
order to elect their candidates, have, as in many
previous cases, made returns from fictious pre-
cincts, or from those in which no polls were
opened or votes cast- Our Delegate to Congress,
B. D. Williams, started, believe, day before
yesterday, for Washington. As you may be in-

wc are informed that a large crowd Of negroes
{probably fifty in uumberl were discovered in

the leader. This negro said they had assembled
together TO have 1" big rassel," but could not
explain the reason of their carrying knives aud

white man was at the bead Of the band, and so
soon as circumstances would permit, they
would have made united cAA1sADo.
