Presidential Election.

The political attitude of the several States as
now known, renders the next election of Pres
ident matter of interesting calculation. The
National Era says: " 1t is quite clear that un
less the Republicans elect a President in 1860,
no election by the people can take place. The
number of electoral votes including Kansas
which will in all probability be admitted at the
next session of Congress, will be 306, and a ma
.jority of this number, necessary to choice of a
President and Vice Pre- sdent, is l54. The
South has 100 electors, and the Free States in
Guiding Kansas, will number 1876 electors. 1t
viii therefore be necessary for the democracy to
get eoCry Southern State, and Northern States
enough to make up "a electors, in order to sue
coed.
In view of the present antagonismS in the
democratic party, it is almost morally certain
that it cannot secure the requisite number OF
electoral votes to elect the President. The
Douglas wing of the party has not the strength
to even approximate to the requisite vote; nor
can the Southern wing of the party which repu'
dates the Douglas Popular Sovereignty the
ory, command the necessary vote. 1t is clear
therefore, if the Republicans fail to secure the
majority of the electoral votes, the election OF
President in 1860 will devolve on the House Of
Representatives. Whoever will look over the
table of States, must perceive there can be nc
such union of the Democracy, as will insure {
majority of States for any Democratic candi.
date the democratic candidate will either be Of
the Douglas stripe; or OF the slave code faction
of the party.

supreme Court Decisions.

There have been some important decisions
lately by our State Supreme Court. The act re-
moving the county seat of tIowa county to
Dodgeville, was declared void, because the act
had simply been published as local law, and
not as a general law. This decision of the
Court probably affects a great variety of acts,
under which proceedings have heretofore been
had, and the question becomes an important
one what is a general law 1t is supposed
that this ruling of the Supreme Court in the
Iowa county seat case, may affect many other
matters, liable to a similar objection.
The Court have also decided that the act O.
the Legislature, creating the Office of State
Comptroller, is unconstitutional and void. AL
so that the assessment blanks, ordered
TO be printed by the Secretary Of State, amount
ING to So, 640 was an illegal act and that tn,
State Treasurer properly refused to pay the draf
of the Secretary. The order for the printing o
the assessment blanks at the Patriot office Mad
son, was generally regarded at the time as n
ontrage-calculated to rob the printers of tn
everal counties, for the benefit of partisa
sheet at Madison.

Personal Liberty.

The South may violate the Constitution, and
the Democracy has not word of reproof tn
offer but the North may not enact laws for the
protection of personal rights-if she does the
Democracy denounce it as treason. The State
OF Louisiana has recently passed a law that
any person of color coming into that State on
board of any vessel from another State, shall
be lodged in Jail Immediately on the arrival of
the vessel in port, and remain in jail until the
vessel leaves. The captain of the vessel may
take such person out of Jail by giving bonds of
$500, conditioned that the vessel will leave
port within "A hours, and that the free person
of color will not be allowed to go on shore
The law also imposes fine of $3.50 on the
captain of any vessel, having any free person
of color on board If he fail to report such fact
to the authorities
The Constitution ofthe United States declares
that the citizens of each State shall be entitled
TO all privileges and immunities of citizens in
the several States" The South may violate
this constitutional provision, and the Democra-
cy see no wrong in such infrac:ion on the rights
OF the States. But when the North enacts
laws to protect citizens in their personal rights,
there goes up cry of dsunon, and Northern
oughfaces affect to be greatly alarmed for the
safety OF the country. The Northern Democ-
racy privilege the South to trample on the Con-
stitutiOn for the sake Of holding together the
great Democratic party.

binding Wheat and Other Grain
bV NTachisRery

We have before spoken of the machinery in.
vented by John P Nanny, of Rockford, for
binding grain. The bands used for binding
cost about eighty-seven cents per acre, and can
be used for good many years by being taken
care of. The editor of the Rockford Republican
has witnessed the operation of this new binder
and speaks of its merits as follows
No improvement has been made in a long
time past so exactly suited to the present needs
of the farmer As the new binder recently invent
ed by Mr. Joha P. Nanny, of this city. There
have been attempts to make binder previous
80 Mr. Mannys efforts, but none have succeed
ed in reaching that point of perfection by which
the grain could be bound AS fast as it was cut
Mr.. Manny's binder will do this, and with the
most admrabl accuracy. With such machine,
which one man and boy can work with perfect
ease, immense fields of grain may be gone over
and every particle securely bound Just rs fas
rs the reaper lake it down This binder is
very simple i'll construction, not easily got out
of order. and can De attached to any reapinp ma
