Effect of Climate ON Wool.

That the climate of the Northern States is
more favorable TO the groth Of fine wool than
the Southwest. repeated experiments are dis
proving. Although it is anadmitted law ofna.
ture, that the covering of an animal viii adapt
itself in great degree to the climate in which
it abides, yet this does not prove that fine wool
cannot be grown in warm climate any more
than that fine furs or fine feathers cannot be
found there, for many animals bearing the finest
quality OF furS, inhabit the most southern por-
tons Of our country; such as beaver, otter,
muskrat and flying SQUIRREL they are all found
IN Texas, as we'll as in Canada The Merino
sheep has been bred for ages as far south as the
thirty sixth degree north latitude in Asia; and
we are informed that there is no perceptible
difference in the finencss of their fleece from
that of the focks Of Europe. We have also the
testimony of the head Of the great Lowell man
atacturng company, who has purchased exten-
slvely from all parts ofthe United States, "that
wherever there are good shepherds, there is
sure to be found good wool" AZ
The vertable samples of wool grown BY an
eminent sheep farmer of Tennessee, (Mr. Mark
Cockerill,) are said to have exceeded in flneness
those selected from the first focks of Europe,
by an agent of our government; and Mr. Cock
erill attributes its superior quality to the cli-
mate of that region, Whether Mr.. Cockerill
is correct or not in his opinion, the fact is ncon-
trovertible, that the climate has worked no de-
terioration in the quality of the wool, in the
many years he has given wool growing his at
tention. But whatever different opinion may
exist on this subject, it is established beyond
doubt that wool grown IN warm climate has
larger and softer fibre than that produced in the
colder countries, although there may be differ
ence in the fitness of either and the manufac-
turer will give decided preference to the longer
and softer sampe.-Pdtsnt Office Report.

squatter sovereignty, which six years ago
was denounced by the Democracy OF the
North as the most absurd Of impossible hum
bugs, 10 now exalted as the grand climacter-
10 OF all political wisdom. Without it,
Territories are political despotisms in which
the people suffer the manifold evils Of op-
preston and tyranny; with il, al the bless
ings of freedom and independence will crown
the people with content and happiness.
Now, there are many Of us who lived un-
der the Territorial government Of Iowa be-
fore Calhoun laid the egg of squatter sover-
eighty or Douglas clLcked over the stpip,' y
and We still survive without even disagree
able remembrance Of the dreadful tyrsnny
which tho dosghfaces portray in such dark
colors. And our observation Of the effects
Of squatter sovereignty in Kans a. does no,
commend ii as productive Of the unmire ed
blessings which il is warranted to produce.
The fact 10, squatter sovereignty 10 simply
the repeal Of the prohibision Of slavery and
the permission Of coatest between cum
friendly legislation" on the part OF the Ter
rltorial Legislature and the DEGREES OF the
United States Supreme Court. And as the
Governor appointed by the Federal Govern.
ment has the veto power, and the Federal
Court has the United States Marshals and
the power Of the Federal Government to back
itnp, "unfrieDdIy legislation is not likely to
amount to much practically.
Squa tier sovereignty in it's best estate is
simply the permission conceded to the peo-
pie to have slaves in tho Territories If they
want them. II they don't want them, squat
ter sovereignty amounts to nothing 1t Ill.

The Locofoco Twin Dcfauliers.
We experience much satisfaction when We
are blessed and commended by the wise and
good. And il il be not altogether so agree
albeit may be quite as useful, and an equally
certain indication that we are in the path Of
duty, to.receivs the abuse and curses OF fools
and scoundrels. The wicked Jews preferred
Barabbas, the robber, to Jesus, who boldly
denounced their iniquity, because their pro.
elivitiss and their sympsthies wsrs with the
evil-doer. On the same principle the rob-
bsrs OF the Treasury,-the Immaculate Esds
and the delecsabls Rabbit, heap curses and
contumsly on those who expose their evil
deeds in the light Of truth to the public eye.
We found the Pl0indsaler on our table
yesterday with several editorials devoted es-
pecially to the abuse Of Howell, and We found
10 the same paper long editorial OF the
Council Bluffs Bugls, Eads' twin de-
fsulter, candidate Babbitt, on the same
fruitful topic. While We can't just say that
We like this, We must say that We prefer their
abuse rather than their praise.
Eads embeEzled the school money Of the
State to the amount Of 10000, and claims
that the State is in debt to him. Babbitt
held on to some ten thousand dollars OF the
money, Of the United States and claimed in
his.psper, that the Government is not only in
bis debt, but gives the public to understand
that he has obtained Judgment against the
Government in the United States District
Court for several thousand dollars. Now.
We have exposed the rsscslIties Of these d EN- !
ocratic pets to the indignation and scorn Of
an intelligent and honest people. 1t is natu.
raj that they should call u hard names, such
rs "liar, hypocrite," &c.
We are not defaulter with thoussnds OF
dollars.of the peoples money in our pocket.
nor are We candidate and using the en-
bezxled funds to secure the votes Of the PEG .

We called Mason Babbi,ps lawyer, because
We proved him the lawyer and adyocate al
the criminal candidates Of the Locofoco mar
y, nov and heretofore, and, as such, he did
confess that Babbits was in default to thu
Government over nine thousand dollars.
The exact cum appears in the report Of the

cams coDcerning candidates for Senator
Passing BY the falsehoods contained in that
article, would suggest that food Tor reasc-
ton might be found in the action Of some Of
the Dem oerats in relation to this Same Sen.
atorial business. Early on Monday, altar
the Democratic Convention, - soon % IL
~ known that Hugsl VAS candidate, the
autocrat Of the Lee Democracy rushed in hot
haste to Hugel's embrace, although be had
not spoken to him for six months.
He made haste TO rssract oil the harsh
things he had ever said Of Hugsl, and asked
to be received again into the pals Of his
friendship. Mr.. Kent was sought, and Mr..
Kent was found. And Mr.. Kent was forced
to decline the nomination. And then Mr..
Hugel was sought and found, and the nomi-
nation was offered to him. He was begged
to take it tears Of entreaty were almost
she'd to him. The terrible crime Of bis
apossacy Was laid before him; he was told
that Democrats had made him his house had
been the Democratic head quarters. Can-
didates had stopped there. but I'll these
things moved Hugel not. He laughed at the
offer He had been promised and deceived
once, and he WIS done with Democratic Con-
ventions.
The week wore anxiously awsy-dismsy
was depicted on the oountenance Of every
Democrat. Friday eame, and with Friday
came ClAgess. Now We shall sec, said they.
Clagets was atfable--Clagest was persuasive
-Clagett was promisscry. Hugel should
have his place on the ticket. No--Hugel
was an dependent candidate for Senator.
Well, then, he should have the regular nom
nation. No-he would have none Of it,
Councils were held. Much persuasion OF
HugePs friends. More dsmay--and Clagst,
went home cursing. Thus ended the diplo-
matte missions to Hugel.
| In view Of this condition OF thinRs, |,
strikes me there is and admirable GOODNESS in
any animadversions upon whatever ac-
ton Republicans may have taken, or may be
falsely represented to have taken, in this sad
affair. The poor Democrats are in tho CON
dtion Of the frogs. 1t is death to them,
sure enough-while it is no more than human
nature for Republicans to stand BY and en-
JOY the sport. Go on with your show, gen.

nreckinridge not Tor ID ouglas.

Abiding to the honed words of some OF
Senator Douglass Friends towards Vice
President Breckenridge, and their hope to
satisfy the latter with the Senatorship, secu-
ring his support for the Little Rebel for the
next Presidency, the Louisville Journal says:
Undoubtedly those politicians in Kentucky
or elsewhere, who think with the sop of the
Senatorship to allay Mr.. Breckinridge's as.
pirations for the Charleston nomination or
enlist him in support OF their own, are des-
tined to be wholly disappointed. He helps
himself fret, and his friends afterward, il
ever. These politicians don't know their
man. Mr.. Breckinridge is himself an aspi-
rant for the Charleston nomination, and will
continue to be until the question 10 closed
reserved, discreet, politic, modest aspi-
rant, no doubt, but still reeolute and
hopeful one. We conceive this to be set.
tied fact.
Besides, if Mr.. Breckenridge we're disposed
to cast his influence for anybody but himself
ia the Charleston Conv ention, Douglas could
not be the favored one, for the essay in Har-
per and the inaugural address Of Governor
Magethn show tho two men to be as wide
asunder as the poles on the slavery question.
Light and darkness are not more opposed TO
each other than the positions Of Douglas and
Breokinridge are. In view of these hostile
positions, an honorable reconciliation or CO.
alition of the two aspirants is moral i'm
possibility. Utterly SO. Ona variety OF 40
counts, therefore, the friends of Douglas at
Washington may as we'll relinquish ali such
hopes as the correspondent of the Press ut
tiers. They had great deal better not lay
the fastering unction to their souls. Breck-
inridge is off-otf on his own hook. Messrs.
