ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT REA-
son WHY JUDGE DOUGLAS SHOULD
BE;NDHIN ATEn

Under the apportionment for representa-
ives III Congress to be made next winter,
on the basis Of the census of 1860. the north
eastern States will lose largely from their
present representation, while the northwest.
ern States will gain vastly. Indeed, it must
be evident to every we'll informed mind, that
under the new apportionmcnt, the great
northwest will hold the controlling power
in the house Of representatives. This falls
election will, beyond question, fix the polit
zeal character of this whole region, either for
or against the Democracy, for years to come.
IT Judge Douglas should be made the nomi-
nee at Charleston, the Democratic party will
sweep every State northwest of the river
Ohio: just as certainly as that November's
sun shall rise; and that, too, with such a
rush of enthusiasm and with such eush of
glory as never before marked the history OF
the Republic. Thenceforth the great north
west will be as true to Democracy as the
magnetic needle is to the pole, But
without the nomination of Judge Douglas,
we have no encouragement to hold out
Inc Democratic party in this section of the
confedcracy will fight to the last, whether
our favorite be the standard bearer. or not,
even 1t it be with the certainty of defeat
but It the National Convention shall overlook
this most important field, at the present cri-
SIS, and turn deaf ear to the prospects oil
the party and the hopes of the Union, the
blame Of whatever result may follow, If blame

u. u EUROPEAN NEWS.

NWnrUa seen by tho news from Europe,
In another column, that Savoy is annexed
to France, and the central Italian provinces
to Sardinia. This will make Victor Eman-
usl the head Of great and powerful nation.
The manner in which the different Faro
pcan governments received the dispatch Of
the French Emperor in relation to the an i.
nexstion Of Savoy. is amusing. It shows
that neither Of them are much inclined To-
pick fuss. The French army is leaving
Italy in order that the Italians may regu-
late their domestic affairs in their own way.
The Pope feels very much .ggrieved At the
seizure Of his dominions by Sardinia, and
oil political and spiritual relations between
the King and his holiness, are to be broken
off, The Pope may we'll feel severely the
loss Of his dominions. His is the Oldest
government Of Europe, and if there is any
merit in antiquity, surely he can claim the
benefit. It will be source Of grief to
him to transmit to his SUCCESSORS domin.

that the divine right Of kings has not the

THE SPRING ELECTIONS.

The spring elections have all been great

Of the State. This is great triumph. The

usurpation in the Romagna, and had
sent protest to all the governments
against the annexation of the legation
to Sardinia.
The treaty of the cession of Savoy
to France was not published, but it,
features were already known.
The London Times, in an editorial
admits that the annexation must be
quietly allowed, but at the same time
denounccs the act us one of spoil
ton and wrong, and III principle as
bad as Il march upon the Rhine or a
sudden attempt on Antwerp. 1t adds
it must leave upon all minds the con
viction that there is no salty except
in continual watchfulncsss and armed
preparation against the aggression Of a
sovereign who thus seizes upon the
possessions Of a friendly power.
FHANcE.---Thc French senate had
indirectly rejected, by . large MAORI
ty petitions requesting their interven
ton in favor of the temporal power OF
the Pope.
The Paris correspondence Of the
London Times says that all the powers
had replied to France relative to Sa.
voy, and gives the following as tho
substance Of their notes:
Russia says that 80 long as the RICH,
OF the people to select rulers is no,
put forward by France, aud that as
the present change does not affect the
balance of Europe, what Sardinia may
do with Savoy is no business of hers.
Prussia says that. as the Emperor Of
France formally disavows the doctrine
OF natural oncicrs, the transfer of Sa
voy is no business Of hers.
Austria declares that she certainly
does not approve OF any annexation
ct the kind, but as Europe stood by
when other anncxations were affected
she does not see what she has to dc
with Savoy.

CALIFORNIA NEWS.

News from California confirms the report
OF the immense richness of tho silver region
Of Carson VALLEY. Many men who have
been working in California for years, and no
richer for it, now find themselves a, the top
Of the hill! and immensely wealthy. Many
will make fortunes in those mines, 9TH
ers may toll for years and make nothing
All advices warn men from going unless
they are plentifully supplied with capital in
order to work the mines by machinery
And we would advise all who have
capital, to come to Minnesota, buy farm,
live on and cultivate it, and in the end they
will find themselves richer, happier, and bet
ter, than If they venture their all, perhaps
to win, perhaps to lose, in the mines Of the
eastern slope.

THE ION ESrEAD BILL.

The Homestead Bill, which passed the
House. is still being daily discussed in the
Senate. 1t seems likely, from the spiri,
manifested, and the test-votes taken, that j,
will pass in some shape or other. Mr.
Brown, Of Mississippi, proposed an amend
me"s embodying the following propositions
FIRST, The pre-emp:or shall not sell, ali
snste or dispose Of his or her right for a
consideration and if he or she voluntarily
ahandoas one pre-emption, and claims an
other, no right shalt be acquired by such
claim, until the claimant shall first have
test!tied, under oath, before the register OF
the land office, when the claim is preferred.
that he or she has voluntarily abandoned
his or her original pre.emption, and that
no consideration, reward or payment Of any
KIND has been received or is expected. di
rectly or indirectly, as an inducenent for
such abandonment and any person VIII,
shall testify falsely in such case, shall, be
deemed guilty Of perjury.
Second, Any person claiming and hold
ing the right Of pre- emption to lands under
this act, may be required by the State with.
N which the same lies to pay takes thereon,
IN the same manner and to the same extent
- IT he or she owned the land ia fee sim
pie and in case such lands are sold for
taxes, the purchaser shall acquire the RICH,
Of pre-emption only.

his family for six consecutive months shall
DO deemed an abandonment and the land
shall, in such case, revert to tn, United
States, and he subject to the same disposi.

We are decidedly in favor Of that propo.
sision ia regard to taxes, as it would be the
greatest injustice to make men who have
paid for their land, endure the whole bur.
den Of the taxation Of tho State for five
years, while those who receive their land.

Two brothers, sons Of miller in tho
Northern part Of vermont, having occasion
for more convenient method Of weighing a
bulky article than by the old fashioned hay
scales, contrived more simple plan, for the
mechanism for which they took patent in
1880. TIE result was SO salts :actory that
they applied the principle, with progressive
improvements, to other decorations 0; scales,
until they now finnish upward, of one hun
dred varieties OF scales, the largest of which
will weigh loadcl canal boa; o! i've hun
drcd tons, and so down to The incest bank
or jewel scale.
The worldwide reputation Of the Fair
banks Scales is owing first, to the in
genious buc simple mechanical arrangement,
and next, to the persistsn. determination OF
the propr!etors always to sell first rate
article, and at a reasonable price Hence
their scales are everywhere the acknowl-
edged standard, and at the same time are
sought Cor the commonest uses. BY this
means they have built up model town

W ARMY NEWS FROM New MEXICO
me Savannah e publican Publishes the fol
lowing extract from private lettc: written
by an officer of the United States army now
stationed in New Mexico. 1t bears date
Sante re, February 25:
am very busy preparing for a war against
the NavJoe Indians. who have been very
troublesome this winter. Last week we had
a fight with them at Fort Craig, on the Rio
Grande, which resulted in killing and wound
ing over thirty five and recapturing from
them booty they had stolen from the
ranches on the river, viz : 5000 sheep, a
number of cattle, horses, &c. This has
been the most successful coup VIC have yet
had with them, and will quiet them for a
time, but nothing short OF severe punish.
ment will effectually awe them, and this we
hope to give them this summer, as about a
thousand of our troops arc mastering and
concentrating for the purpose.
KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN C1RcLE.-A
New Orleans letter states that the number
Of K. G. C.'s now in that city is about g.
200 men. Tho companies are composed
ofyoung men, and their drill is said to be
excellent. The organization is reported to
extend through seventeen States, including
the whole South, and comprises nearly 80, :
600 members. The writer says its object
is to march to Mexico, crush the Miramon
faction, and place the s.Jaurez Government
fairly on its legs. This done, they mean
to assimilate the Mexican republic as near
~ to our own as the different habits of the
two races will permit. The X. G.. C.'s
contend that they are violating no treaty or
neutrilty law, and disclaim the character
Of fillibusters. In Texas, the division is re-
ported to DO $500 strong, with pecuniary
resources Of nearly half a million.
