This body will assemble in two weeks form
Monday next. 1t will be composed ofthe samo
members as last session. But the Presidential
election being now over, and the responsibility
Of administering the government being soon to
rest on the Republican party, and the treasury
to fall under Its control, far different system
OF tactics from that which has been recently
followed the Representatives Of that party, will
be followed. In Harrison's day, as soon as
the election was over, the very first thing done
by those who had charged in their speeches
and publications that Van Buren, eat with gold
spoons and slept on French bedsteads," was
to demand and obtain from Congress large ap-
preparation Of public money to fit up the
White House in o manner "beftting the digni-
ty OF the Chief Magistrate ofa nation" AS
it was then, so it will doubtless be now. In
steed Of introducing additional economy into
the public service, and lessening the burdens
which rest on the people, the ordinary expen-
ditures will be enlarged, and the amount OF
money indirectly drawn from the people will
be increased On pretence Of helping poor men
they will give away the public lands to specu-
lators, and then TO supply the loss Of revenue
occasioned by stopping the sale Of the pnblic
domain, they will make poor men" pay an in :
creased rrice for every pound ofiron their nec-
essilss may require them to consume. This
I'LL be Republican craftsmanship in practice

Lincoin's Administration


The Republicans in their joy over the victo-
ry which they have just acileved through the
failure Of democrats to, keep the peace" o.
their party and to maintain unity, seem to be
utterly obliyious OF the perils and dIsadyanta.
ges which the possession of power will bring
upon them.--Heretofore their whole work has
been one of attack. They have had to advise
no measure, nor to account for any alleged
failure in the Executive administration of the
government Hencelorth their position is to
be changed into one of defense, and instead OF
busying themselves in assauting others, they
will speedily learn that it has come their turn
to explain and justify. The Democracy OF the
country will be prepared to give the incoming
administration fair hearing. Justice will de-
mand this and they shall have it, but anything
beyond simple justice the Republican victors
have a right neither to ask or expect. II
they would sometimes crave more liberal
construction of their conduct than is placed
on it, q remembrance Of their own personal as.
saults on Mr.. Buchanan's administration will
quickly admonish them that they have no
claim to lenty. Added to all this, the Repub.
lican ADMINISTRATION need not expect to escupe
those damaging assaults which, coming from
the ranks Of It's professed friends, will prove
hardest to meet and successfully resist. The
experience Of Mr.. Buchanan's administration
may warn the Republicans in advance OF the
widespread damage and deep. seated disaffec-
tion that may be accomplished under the bold
and INSCRIPTIONS leadership Of a few misguided
friends occupying positions giving them inau.
ence over public opinion. With an opposition
IN its own ranks OF character klnderd TO that
waged on Mr.. Buchanan by Forney, Hickman
& Co., the administration of Lincoln must break
down within the first year of its existence
That 1t will encounter an opposition OF that
character, we confidently anticipate. .---Neoark

We are indebted to our old friend Gov Me-

Proclamation, which we publish below
TO THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS.
In the beginning We were promised that
"while the earth remaineth, seed time and har.
vest, and cold and heat, and summer and win
ter, and day and night shall not cease"
This great promise to mans hope and indus
try was made by Him, who is the fountain of
Truth; who also said "go forth and replenish
the earth;" and who said unto the tempest "be
stil:" But into Gods purpose man cannot
phyllis ends are worked out in HIS own good
time. He chastiseth for our good, giveth and
withholdeth that his name may receive the
higher glory among his creatures. The con-
trite in heart are chastened and tie proud are
humbled. Let man, therefore, not repne at
what, to him, is mystery, but rather let him
thank God, with humble obedience, putting
trust in His great promises fulfilled unto so ma
ny generations-rather bow in grateful adora-
tion to him by whose power he breathes and
moves, than ignorantly curse the hand which
extendeth blessings and withholdeth no need
cd good. ...........

! who Is Abraham Lincoln!

Mr.. Abraham Lincoln, OF the State OF Tllin.
ois, is elected President Of the United States By
a sectional party. Who he is, and how capa.
BILE he is of administering the affairs Of the gov
ernment, we leave Rev. Peter Cartwright,to tell
who lives in the same county with Mr., Lincoln
Mr.. G. is one Of the Oldest Methodist minis
ters in the United States, and is highly esteem
ed by his church. 95 ael
In letter to Hon. James Il. Morris, of this
State. under date Of Pleasant Plains, Sanga,
i mon county, ILL., October Oath, 1850" Mr..
Cartwright says re .a tasa
Who is Mr.. Lincoln? Barely a second rate
lawyer, with little wit and low cunning, but
no profound talents as statesman. The Lord
pity the UNION II he should be elected. He is
indebted for all his notoriety to having rubbed
against the Little Giant in this State in 1858.
We have no comments to make on the above

Election In Harrison County.
Below we give the result Of the election in
bis couaty on last Tuesday

Bell received votes in Short Greek, in
German; 8 in Athens; Ia in Cadiz; 8 in Archer;
4 in Rumey; 8 in Moore6eld; in Freeport;
in Nottingham, and in Washington; and
Smith received votes in Nottingham and z
in Franklin.
The above vote shows Harrison county TO be
the banner Breckenridge county in Ohio in pro-
portion to her Democratic vote.
Hundreds Of men in this county voted for
Mr.. Douglas, simply because they thought he
stood better chance Of carrying the State than
Mr.. Breckenridge, who at the same time de.
spise his doctrines and heresies. Some also vo-
ted for him under the delusion that he was the
regular nominee. With such men we have no
fault to find. They are Democrats at heart
and cannot be transferred to any other party
by black republicans in disguise.

FWe learn from the Steubenville Herald
that the dwelling house Of Mr.. Samuel Mans
field, Wayne township, Jefferson county, with
contents, was totally destroyed by fire on the
afternoon of November l, between the hours oi
2 and 8 O'Clock. The female portion Of the
family were engaged in making apple butter in
an adjoining building. and did not discover that
the place was on fire until the roof was in a
blaze. The male members of the family being
engaged husking corn, in field considerable
distunce from the house, were unable to reach
it in time to be of any service in the way
extinguishing the flames. The total loss, inclu.
ding the house, "a substantial brick,) furniture
apparel, &C., is not short of $4,000.
