tension of the slave power, though person
ally he said nothing about Abolition. He
most strenuousiy opposed the repeal of the
Missouri Compromise, was against the Kaa-
sas Nebraska bill, against the Lecompton
swindle, against the English bill and some-
times he maintained his course against the
instructions of the Tennessee Legislature
He has also been steadily opposed from the
first to all acquisitions of territory from
Mexico or Spain for new slave States. All
through he has acted fully up to all that the
Republican platform could demand. On the
other hand he has supported all those gea-
eral measures that have been most popular
at the north. If he had done half as much
for slavery as he has against its assumptions
and usurpations, he would be sure of every
democratic vote in the South, while now
he does not claim or expect Republican sup
port.
We are liable to have many worse men
than John Bell elected to the Presidency, and
have little chance of obtaining better.
OF Mr.. Everett we have no room to speak
to-day, and he is too well known here to
need words.-Nep5Wypor Herald
The Nevada journal., 1860-07-06

A Prophecy FULFILLED In the Illino
contest of 1859, Mr.. Douglas had much to
say about the sectiouality of the Republi-
can party. In reply to one of these TRADES,
Hon. Abraham Lincoln used the following
remarkable terms:
g ask his attention, to the fact that by
the rule of nationality he is himself fast
becoming sectional. | ask his attention to
the fact that his speeches would not go as
current now South of the Ohio River as
they have formerly gone there. ask his
attention to the fact that he felicitates him
self to-day that all the Democrats of the
Free States are agreeing with him. If he
has not thought of this, commend to his
consideration the evidence of his own dec
laration on this day, of his becoming sec
tional too. see it rapidly approaching
Whatever may be the result of this ephem-
eral contest between Judge Douglas and
myself, see the day rapidly approaching
when the pill of sectionalism, which he has
been thrusting down the thro ITS of Repub-
cans for years past, will be crowded down
his own throat"
The Nevada journal., 1860-07-06

THAT'S So.-We agree with the Mariposa
Gdzette in what it says, as follows: at is
important for the people to look well to the
coming election fer members of the Leyis-
l'ture; because, at the next session of that
body, a United Ststes Senator is to be elect
ed; and what is of infinitely more import
ance, ;he whole legislative representation
is to be re-apportioned upon the basis OF
the census of 1860. This will give rise to
one of the most exciting sessions ever wit
messed in the Sta and if we desire to get
fair show, we must send cur best men to
both tr1nches of the Legislature: men who
can speak and act, and who, from their abil-
tiles and character, can command influence
in the legislative halls If we send mere
dlmmies, who will draw their per diem and
vote aye and no, we will stand about as
much show for fair proportion of repre-
sentation, as a feline would in the Internal
regions without claws; or a male member
OF the bovine species, with his caudal ap-
pendage curtaiied, ia fly time"
The Nevada journal., 1860-07-06

WHAT QUEEN Cosrs.--The following
from the Philadelphia Press, will give onr
readers an idea of the expense to the British
nation of supporting the Court of England
1t may be new to many of our readers, and
will show them what royalty costs. In the
last year the outlay of the British people
for royal establishments amounted to abou
S2,732, 955. The leading items are as fol-
lows; Queen Victorias civil list, Sl,925,-
900, including her private purse, $500, 900
salaries of household, $685., ,00O household
expenses, S855,oo0; royal bounty, S66, 900;
pensions, $4,000 miscellaneous. $40, 200
Prince Albert's annuity, $3.50, 900; Duchess
of Kent, Sl50,OOO; Duchess of Cambrid re
$4,000; Duchess of Meeklenberg-Strel
$4,000; king of the Bulgians, $3.50, 900
Princess Frederic of Prussia, S37.s9o SER
warts of deceased royalty, Sl4,625. All OF
these moneys are paid out of the Consoli-
dated Fund Tor public revenue) of England,
and do not represent the whole amount re-
celved By the royal family.
Thus, Prince Albert has numerous Offices.
civil and military, which bring him in an
additional income of Sl50,000. The Duke
OF Cambridge, besides having part of St.
James Palace free of rent, taxes, and re-
pairs, has some 5000 per annum extra as
commander-in-chi and colonel of a cav
airy regiment. Not only is the queens aunt,
the DutcheSs of Cambridge handsomely
pensioned, as well as her son and two
daughters, but even her son-in-law, a very
poor German prince, accepts $500 year
from Great Britain. The queens mother
and the queens uncle, Leopold of Belgium
have 100000 year between them. Nay,
50 much is money an object with royalty
that the Princess Royal of England, married
TO the king of Pruss as nephew, was mean'y
permitted by the Prussian royal family to
sad lie the British nation with life pension
to her Of Ss7,94O year, which John Ball
will probably have to pay during the next
half century.

The LITERATURE OF THE PRESs.-1t GER
tainly can not be claimed for the American
press that its literary attainment is very
high. The editor of one of our interior pa
pers makes use of the phrase q we done it,
A city journal said of man whose leg was
unfortunately broken by accident, /" that he
had his leg broken" as if he had hired some
one to perform the painful operation. A
leading Sacramento paper, relating the sud-
Den disappearance Of lad who is supposed
to have fallen into hume and drowned,
says of him that ." he was found missing"
A western journal, in describing and extra
ordinary fall of meteOric stones, says that
one large mass weighing ffty-two pounds
descended ''in an angling direction Shade

computing interest at six per cent. has been
published, which appears very simple. Null
tiply any given number OF dollars by the
number of days of interest desired; sepa-
rate the right hand figure, and divide by
six; the result is the true interest in cents
OF such sum forsu number of days at six
per cent. This rule is simple, and so true
according to all business usages, that every
banker, broker, merchant and clerk should
post it up for reference and use. There be-
ing no such thing as q fraction in it. there
is scarcely any liability to error OF mistake.
By no other arithmetical process can so de-
cided information be obtained with few fig
ures.
