Mr.. fIamii.l and tlae Homestead
HgGfl

The vote of Mr. Hamlin on the Senate bill,
facetiously called Homestead bill, was thus
explained by himself at the time of voting:
"The men who have taken it under their pc
culiar care Speaking of the bill then on its
passage are the enemies of the homestead
principle and they propose to pass it. am

they tell US, and tell MS very frankly that IL

rot vote for it. voted to substitute the
House bill for this bill but those having
control of the matter have put it into posi-

After the bill passed, Mr.. Davis said 81
do not think the title accurately describes
the bill. My opinion is that an accurate des-
cription of this bill would be:
"a bill amendatory Of the seceraI acts
for the disposal Of the public domain, and to
perfect the existing system in regard to the
settlement thereof.
Messrs. Green. Wigfall and numerous 9th,
or Senators, voted for the bill on the express
grounds that it was not homestead bill, and
coupled with declarations that they mould
neoer cote for q Homestead bill. The friends
of the HON estead principle generally voted
for the bill because it offered some additional
advantages to actual settlers, but not because
it gave them free homes.
On the final passage of the bill as agreed
upon by the Conference Committee of the
two branches Of Congress Mr.. Hamlin voted
for it.

Califo MIA s more doubtful State than
many political calcuators have admit ed
The Breckenridge division is more wide and
impossible even than in the Atlantic States,
and it cuts off wider proportionate slice.-
The Bell men are almost run out as party,
and the remnant will probably fall into the
arms Of the Douglasites. All accounts
agree that the Republicans are making large
gains. If the vote were to be taken to
day, we believe it would show that Lin
coin and Douglas have each about 45, 900,
Breckenridge $4,000, and Bell 10000. What
may be the changes before November cannot
be foretold

More Double-DeaIins-,Thc Little
Dodger On the Homestead Bill.

After lifelong opposition to Protec-
tive Tariff, in and out of Congress, Douglas
few days ago attempted to cajole the Tariff
men of Pennsylvania into the belief that he
is their friend and in favor of Protection to
Home Industry. .
After failing, by his voice or his vote, to
support the Homestead Bill al the late ses-
sion of Congress, when he had a fine oppor-
tunty to do so ifhe chose, he had the impu-
dence at Columbus, Ohio, the other day, to
pretend TO be in favor of the Homestead
principle.
1t is very evident that this bold and I'M
principled aspirant for the Presidency is la.
boring to make himself popular by false pre-
fences and the most humiliating hypocrisy
Like the ily-tongued seducer, he speaks
soft words ofpromise to the ear, only tc
break them when the time of fulfilm emf
comes. He has invariably been in opposi
ton to the great interests of the people and
the nation, and yet, to hear him speak, one
would think that the people could not live
without him, nor the country saved from
ruin unless he was Immediately made Presi-
dent.
If duplicity and hypocricy are qualities K
be respected then Douglas deserves the res
pect Of all men; and if the cunning arts 0
demagogueism will cause the people t.
support man for the Presidency
then they will support Douglas. Other
wise, no! for these are his only reccommen
dation.

COUNTY CoNvENTloN.-We trust the Re
publicans Of this county have noticed the
call for County Convention next Saturday,
the 9th inst, to nominate candidate fol
District Clerk. To-day is appointed for the
holding of Township Meetings 70 choose five
delegates, each; and it is to be hoped that
they will be held in every Township. Let
the county be fully represented We do not
anticipate any diversity of opinion in rela-
ton to the selections of a candidate, but it
is desirable that that selection have the en-
dorsement of full representation of the
friends on this OCCASION and, besides, it will
do us good to come together about that time.
The Union of last week was omnouslv
silent about the Democratic nomination for
Clerk, contenting itself with bare publica-
ton of the proceedings Of the convention
This could hardly be, if Union was pleased
with the nomination. We may hence, infer
that the Union is not pleased-indeed we
Gave not heard of anybody who is pleased,
except, perhaps, Mr.. Augh Brown, the NOM
inee. The fact is, the nomination is one not
fit to be made, as anybody acquainted with
Mr.. Brown, must know. Why the compe-
tent men Of the party-such men as Boni-
field and others were passed by, in favor of a
man who can know nothing Of the office, is
amystery to u.s. 1t strikes us that the pco-
pie will not sanction any such an arrange
ment; that they will not vote for a man
simply because he belongs to the party, with
out regard to his fitness for the position
There are too many interests at stake; too
much skill and experience is required at this
particular time. The people will think twice
before they place a man in the office Of Clerk,
to look on, while two or three assistants will
have to be hired, at large salaries, to do the
actual business. This might be nice ar.
rangement for few Court House managers,
who have made up their minds to i've off OF
the droppings from theCounty Treasury, and
who would delight to hive a man elected
who would be compelled to let them manage
things, so as to subserve their private pur-
poses and interests. Bat it occurs to US.
thatWapello county has done enough towards
the support of this voracious combination
and will hereafter 60 in for men for Office who
will do the most work, in the best manner
for the smallest amount of money, and with
the least expense to the county, for clerks
hire

we may expect that our atmosphcr will at

that our citizens can open their doors and

hours spasmodic bark; laborious to himself
and painful to those who in vain attempted
to catch his words. No term expresses the
sound Of his voice rs well as the word bark :;
and the monotony of those banks, to those
only few feet from him, was too painful to

but to the true cause, an utter inability to
catch his words. By his side was plate of
lemons, and every sentence or two he would
convulsivcly clutch and squeeze one swal-
lowing the juice, so as to keep open feeble
passage from his lungs. The Presidency,
even if it were insured to him in November,
is no compensation for the physical wear
and tear he is suffering"
