The Legislature Of this State is
constantly passing resolutions ask
ing for additional mail facilities.
Hadn't it also ought to pass
resolutions instructing the dele.
cation in Congress from this State
to vote for an appropriation to
transport the mails over the routes
we now have. Such Legislation
we admit should not be necessary
to impel them to the performance
of a solemn duty, enjoined as
much by the Constitution as by
the necessities of the country, but
their attempt to cripple the admin
istration for political capital at the
expense of the people leads US to
expect their opposition, again if
party ends can be secured there
by.

Immediately after the closing of
the Charleston Convention to ad-
vocate the election of its nomi-

THE NEW SCHOOL ACT

Large numbers of our subscri-
bers are asking for the publication
of the School Laws, and many of
them are censuring us to some ex-
tent because they are not publish
ed in our paper. Our informa-
ton leads us to the belief that the
County Judge should have them
published at the expense of the
county, but as they are not yet
furnished to him, no censure
should attach for not having them
published. As for ourselves we
have never yet seen them, if we
had, though they would be Of lit
tie interest to the general reader
and their publication Of great ex-
pense to us, we should give
them and rely upon the magnanf
nifty Of the Judge for such COM
pensation as he might give us,
not expecting that allowed by
law for such work.

The following notice appeared in the
New York Ledger, in regard to the
Aitna Insurance Company. MI. Rob-
ert Bonner, tho publisher Of the Ledger,
executed HE 6rst job work in the Cour.
ant office, Hartford, Conn, for the Atna
Insurance Company. He says:
When We were IN apprentice in the
old Courant Office, in Hartford, about
twenty years ago. the first Job work"
on which We were employed was in print
ing the policies of the Etna Insurance
Company Of that city. We knew the
leading men connected with the Com.
pany-knew them to be goodand respon-
sible men; and when We came to New
York, and had insurance to do, we
thought of tho old Etna, and At the
time of our recent fire were insured in
it to the amount Of $4,000. How did
they act there? Just as we had expect.
ed they wsuld. As soon as we aequain.
ted them with our loss. tho agent in
this city, James A. Alexander, Of g.
Wall street, at once proposed to send
of his check for the amount. Is it any
wonder that such company is success
full! Ofour experience with other compa-
MES We mean to speak hereafter.
Insurance with this safe and
reliable company can be affected
by applying to w. r. Mead at
the Plaindealer building upon as
reasonable terms a. with any
company having the ability and
intending in good faith a prompt
and honorable settlement of all
lo'sea In procuring Insurance
the motive is to guard against
loss, or damage by fire, hence the
wisdom of insuring only in the
best company within your reach.
How can the Union be saved? By
letting every white man South and
North know, and keeping the facts be-
fore them, that the Union contains thirty
millions Of people, while the slave own
ers are only three hundred and fifty
thousand! Shall this handful long
be permitted to keep the 'aillions in a
state Of constant uproar, excitement
and turmoil Let as say anildly but
frnsly--M!-N Y. Tribune.
If there are but $685. shareholders
among the 100000 in the Southern
States, why not leave the question with
them! Why call in the whole North t.
interfere by agitation and aggression?
Atlas & argus. ...
Why Mr.. Argus! don't you
know that the only stock in trade
of the Republican party and of
the Tribune in particular, is the
poor negro! Whitewash the ne
gro and take the kinks from his
hair, and such philanthropic busy
body's as Greeley are thrown out
of employment at once.

CHARLESTON CONVENTION
One month from to-day the De-
mocracy of the U. S. assemble to
put in nomination a suitable per-
son for the standard bearer of the
party in the coming contest. AS
VIC have repeatedly said, the will
Of that convention shall be demo-
cratic authority to US, both in its
nominee and in the platform of
principles it promulgates. If that
convention shall nominate either
ofthe twenty-five or thirty men
whose names in one way and
another has been mentioned in
connexion with the Charleston
convention, we shall buckle on
our arm or for the fight with full
faith in an overwhelming triumph.
And though we have, as all other
democrats have, our preferences,
still the nominee of that conyen-
ton will be our standard bearer,
and from thence on, our choice,
first, last, and all the while.
We allude to this question at
the present time for the parpose of
contradicting an erroneous inn
preston, to the effect that we have
assailed Judge Douglas, which in
terested parties parties are endeav-
oIluS 10 convey.
Such is not, never has been, and
will never be our position toward
any member of the party who is
willing, as Judge Douglas declares
himself to be, to support the nom-
inees and stand upon the plat
form Of the party. But we have
protested land still stand by what
we said) against the action of the
State convention As fraught with
evil and only evil to the party in
Iowa. We believe the people Of
the State Of Iowa, are democratic
to-day, and if united will cast the
electoral vote Of the state for the
Charleston Nominees. Against the
state convention for EXPIRE ssing a
preference for some particular in
dividual we do not protest, though
we admit that our wishes are al.
ways best consulted when dele
gates are sent untrammeled.
But when that preference is so
expressed as to injure the party
in case it is not regarded with ia
vor, we deem it our duty to pro-
test in behalf of the rank and file
whether our course is pleasing or
not to the self.installed leaders.
In conclusion we venture to
predict that if Judge Douglas is
nominated he will be elected, and
farther, that many of those now
clamoring for him, will oppose
his administration, because they
may have failed to secure fat po-
sitions to themselves or friends;
while we shall, as we have ever
done, give t. his, a. to all demo.
cratic administrations, an unwa-
vering support.
We go even further and say
that if Judge Douglas were now
