THE MAINE CHIvALRY.

The Democratic members Of the Maine Leg
lature recently adopted resolutions, by unan-
imous vote, re-endorsing the Cincinnati Plat
form, and the principles of Popular Sovereignty
and declared that the people of Territory, the
same as those of State, had an inherent right
to regulate all their domestic institutions.
Two papers, the Bangor Union, and the Belfast
Journal, both edited by Federal officers, have
denounced the resolutions, and extracts from
these papers have found their way into the Le-
compton press of California, to show that the
Democracy of Maine are following the anti
Democratic vagaries of Mr.. Buchanan. AS a
still further evidence Of the "soundnessr of the
Maine Democracy, We publish the following ex-
tract from speech by Jethro Kalesead, Esq,
postmaster a Calias: 7t,s v.,, .tt s,i
"'Taint no use to talk abeout non interven

gether meow, we shall be clean overrun Direct
ly. What's the use of our hevin' constitution
if them blue -bellied Yankees are to have a
right to take our niggers away, by prohibiting
slavery, as they call it. We are national men
ourselves, and want to hev' our side win, or
else we want the government broke up. Sec
tional men are at work trying to undermine
the glorious flag Of our Union. Shall they sue
coed? Never, sir. The age Of chivalry, say
some, has fed. 'Taint So There are some Of
us left. Let our knightly bugles but sound,

airy will respond from Passamaquoddy to Pc
nobscot [Cheersl Sir, the Presidents right.
JEFF Davis is right. VIM. Walker is right.
Howell Cobb is right, and so are oil our fellers.
The renegade Douglas has been endorsed by
the Maine Democracy, but, sir, we must repu-
date their dastardly action. When think of
my pOsition,-my connection with the National
Democratic Administration, - the commission |

swells with patriotic emotions. and storm of
Indignation arises within me when think Of
the efforts of Douglas to abotionze the North,

breezes which come up the Passamquoddy bay,
are grateful, for they cool the hot ardor Of my
chivalric and passionate blood. Loud aud

THE PACIFIC SrATEs.--In alluding to the de-
feat of the Pacific Railroad bill, the Sonora
Herald says;
1t is true that the people Of California are
loyal citizens Of and attached to the Union.
Hailing from every State 10 the eonfederacy,
with the endearing reoollections Of early homes
and dear relatives left behind, still fresh in their
memories, none are more devoted TO the glory
aud pcrpetuation Of the Union than the emf
grants Of California But even the strongest
ties of affection, and the closest relations of
consanguinity, may be weakened and severed
by long-continued i'll treatment and neglect on
the part of one or other Of the parties interested
The statesmen at Washington, who are in the
habit OF making periodical buncomb speeches

ICE IN SURGICAL OPERATIONS.

The Utica Herald says that DR.. Wolcott,
of that city. actingunder the suggestion OF
French journal has resorted to iceas means
of destroying pain in surgical opeations. \
few DAYS since, he removed very large tumor
from mans leg. He took preparation "t
snow and common table salt and applied it 10
the diseased part. which was almost immedi-
atey reduced to an insensible state. The re
moy al of the tumor was accompanied 10y very
little loss Of blood and little or no pain. lr.
W. thinks that this method of producing in
scnsbility to pain is preferable To that Of
chloroform. inasmuch as it is not dangerous
and does no injury to the blood.
