CHANGES IN t1s CaS.net.

We announced last week that Howell
Cobb had resigned his position as Seereta-
ry of the Treasury. FIX Gov. Philip F.
Thomas of Maryland has been appointed
to fill the vacancy lie is man of whom
but little is known beyond the fact that he
is q violent secessiorist, and symPathises
with the fire caters of the South in all
their movements tending to the destruc-
ton OF the Government.
Gen Cass has also resigned as Secreta-
~ of State. not caring any longer TO be
identified with the infamous sdmlnistra-
ton of which he has been part and parcel
until now The Presidents refusal to send
re-inforcements into South Carolina to pro-
tcct the Government property, is said to
he the cause Of this step on the part
of Gen. Cass. All patriotic citizens will
applaud him for h $ courage and patriotism
in the course he has taken. Atty. General
Black has been transferred to the Office va
Gated by Gen. Cass We have not learned
who takes Blacks place as Attorney Gen
eral, but presume he will be man after
Buchanan's own heart and traitor to bis
country, who will axe it point to play
into the hands of the Dsuniouists Of the
South Thank God this administration
has but little longer to live.

Matters TO be Pondered.

The Barbarian Shareholders are driving
citizens from their property and homes by
thousands, tarrlng and feathering them and
heaping upon them all kinds of insults, not
excepting hanging them upon trees, and
suffering their bodies to hang and rot, re-
fusing them burial and all this only be.
cause these men voted as they chose. To
all this the Government pays no attention,
not even exPostulating with the rufians,
much less bringing the whole power of the
Government to restrain and unish the of
tenders as decent government would do
On the other baud are politicians at the
C1pltoi recommending Compromises to ap-
pease the wrath Of these southern ruffians.
instead OF Congress going in body and
bursting III the door of perjured and
reasonable Executive, and in thunder tones
demanding that the laws for the protection
OF persons and property shall be executed.
Instead OF administering the Government
we have, the Administration, and Congress
seem to have strangely suspended the Con-
o't,o'io' ana Laws. surrey there ought
to be some men in Washington, to redeem
the country from indictment for treason
and foolishaess. What gives the whole
picture Its chief feature is the revolving
fact that the country is making obeisance
to shareholders whom the Government
ought to have arrested, tried and punished
Tor their crimes against the laws. The
last aud most Infamous act is. the periured
and traitor President. after bringing the
country into this condition, appointing a
day of prayer and calling upon Christians
to pray God to remove the threat ming evils
which is about as impious as it would have
been had the tyrant Nero appointed a fast
to save the city from the flames kindled by
bis own hand.

Chicago and North Western Railuay.-
A late number Of the Railway ReUiew contains
the following observations on the above road, by
N. H. Parker Esq, the travelling correspondent
of that paper:
The road is now in complete order from Chi
c:go to Oshkosh, Wisconsin distance of 1914
miles, and soon to be opened to Appleton, 90
miles North, making ola niles. As an illus
tration ofthe efficiency of the present Company
we may state that within three months time
they constructed sixty three miles of roadway,
built three large substantial bridges over Rock
river, and erected all necessary depot build
ings, water stations, &c. The first train pass
ed over the entire line, from Chicago to Osh-
kosh, October 9th, 1859 Free from curves,
ballasted with gravel, and fenced its entire
length, this may be set down rs first class
road in every respect. At present the Compa-
ny have in use SO locomotives, 400 freight cars,
1871 platform cars, 90 passenger cars and eight
baggage cars
This road connects the metropolis fthe North
West with the celebrated wheat growing dis
trict of Wisconsin, and when completed will pass
through the famous prairies of Northern Wis
consin and Michigan, and furnish an outlet for
the inexhaustible bed of copper ore at Ontona-
gon, and of iron ore at Marquette The Com
pany i. actively engaged in the extension of the
work towards Appleton, which VIC understand
will soon be completed.

/ reiteratc the recommendation contained in
my Annual Message of December, 1853, and
repeated in that of December, 1859 in favor OF
the acquisition Of Cuba from Spain by fair pur.
chase.-President's Message.
We call that decidedly cool. Before
"Uncie Sam makes any further invest
ments in that line he had better ascertain
whether Louisiana and Florida, which be
bought and paid a handsome sum for, are
to remain his property or not and also
whether Texas, whose war with Mexico
we fought and whose debts we paid cost
ing our government thousands of valuable
lives and many millions of dollars, is not
going to leave us 'peaeeably if she can,
but forcibly if she must. Before We buy
any more territory, let the question be set
tied whether we are 70 own it or not after
we have made the purchase and paid our
money. The idea Of paying two or three
hundred millions of dollars for Cuba.

JEyF. DAVIS says the Senate slave code res

of compromise .-E1chQnge.
We revere the Union as highly as any
one does, and trust We never shall see it
dismembered But if "the Senate slave
code resolutions of last winter furnish the
only basis of compromise" between Il e
North and south; and if that is the only
ultimdtuna on the part of the Southern
Fire-eaters by which the cotton states will
consent to remain in the Union, then VIC
say. ''let the Union slide" A large ma
ijority of the voters in tie United States
have pronounced against that doctrine and
declared that slavery shall not be carried
into the Territories and be protected by a
slave code. If majorities are no longer
permitted to rule under our form of gov.
ernmcnt, then our government is humbue
and farce not worth preserving. If the
South does not wish to remain in the Tn
ion unless the rule shall BE- reversed, and
minorities be allowed to govern, then lei
the South dissolve her connection with the
Union-IF SHE CAN. But we apprehcnd
that the day Of her deliverance is not very
near at hand.

You cannot put your finger on the part
of the Constitution which conveys the right
| or the power to carry from one of the States
of the Union to any territory of the U. S
Nor can | admit for single momnet that
there is any separate or several rights upon
the part of the States or individual members
Of a State, or any portion of the people
of the United States, to carry slaves into
the Territories held in common between
the several States. 1t is joint property
held by a common trustee for the general
good and to be administered by the Gen
eral Government according to it's deliberate
judgement of what will best promote the
common happiness and prosperity, and do
justice to all.

LAS all lovers of our country ought TO do, L
still hope for the best, but fear the worst, Did
the mass Of the Republicans of the North know
how nearly they had applied the torch to ever
house, and the knit v ire hearts of their white
brothers and sisters of the South it seems to
me they would pause in their mad career. The
slaves here think that when Lincoln becomes
President they will be Set free. and no one can
tell the amount of bloodshed this conviction may
cause. But l am talking politics to you-no
not politics, but a matter Of life and death to
thousands. | cannot blame the people of the
South for the feelings they entertain. Dem
ocrdt.
The above is presented as the language
of Southern man, in a letter written to
gentleman in this city. and is worthy of
close attention, as afTording a specimen of
pro-slaycry logic. The argument, if it may
be so called, is this: The course of the
Republican party IN electing Mr.. Lincoln
will endanger the lives and property of the
shareholders therefore Republicans have
no right to persist in advocating and car
rying out their doctrines. Is it the fault
of the Republicans that the shareholders
are in such danger? Because the South
has established such institutions as are in
consistent with the safety of the people, if
the people of the North continue to act
according to their conscientious convic-
tions of duty, must the Northern, or free
States, therefore, give up their freedom I
The idea is most absurd, and the demand
an insult. 1t is this very truth confessed
in this letter, which shows how wrong sla-
very is, which cannot exist with the safety
of the master, unless the whole country
and peoi lie are made slaves also. This is
very much like Satan, after his fall, de-
handing of God Almighty that he shall
blot out all holiness from the universe, be-
cause it is not agreeable to his fallen ma
ture aud renders him unhappy
