THE RESPONSIBILITY

The Opposition papers endeaving at the cost
of their reputation for sanity and honesty, to force
upon the democrats in Congress the responsibility
of not organizing the House. This is futile at
tempt to throw the Indignation of abused and
confidence betrayed people off their guard and lead
them into error. South Carolina can not be said to
be Democratic in doctrine that is, she is party
State but all her representatives throw the response
bility of non-organization upon the South Ameri-
cans. The Opposition think we ought to elect one
of their men. This would be madness part i.
What? Democrats abandon the administration and
go with their opponents; most assuredly not. Let
the Opposition organize the House assist the Ad
minstraton in its organization. Let the Opposi-
ton forces unite or let branch of the Opposition
go with US. Their duty is clear If they cannot
organize the house adversely to the Administration
let them unite and organize with the government.
The government that is not worth the support of
the party which placed it in power is certainly very
worthless We shall hereafter condemn any abandon
ment of democratic candidates for the Speakership.
Let our representatives vote for democrats or none
other, and let the burthen and responsibility rest
where 1t should, upon the opponents of the Demo

DANIEL WORTH ACTING OLD JOHN
BROWN

The New York Times of the 31st December con-
tans letter from Daniel Worth, dated Greens
borough Jail, n c., December 26, 1852" in which
he gives account of his trial and imprisonment,
and anticipates the wrath to come' He says he
is happy in prison, and ready to "suffer shame y
for the cause in which he is engaged.
We regret that the only legal punishment in his
case is whipping, the pillory' and Imprisonment. 1t
is better that one man should die than that the
peace and safety of whole communities should be
put in jeopardy. Daniel Worth must know that he
has offended against both God and man. No one
can truly 'glorify Coz" by sowing the seeds OF in
su ERECTION and serve war If our institutions did
not suit him, why did he return from Indiana
We think the keeper of the Greensborough pris
on should see to it that more of Daniel Worth s
hypocritical letters, appealing to the abolitonists
for sympathy should be permitted to be sent North
to be published in abolition newspapers

called Huddleston, an Irishman, who worked the
Coafield railroad, expressed his admiration of old
Brown, and hoped he might die such death as his
Some of our town boys thought they would give him
chance to die his death, and quickly rope was
procured and he was hosted above terra arns0. He
begged of them to permit him to say his prayers
but time would not be given At length when he
began to exhibit signs of stranguaton they let him
down, and gave him an opportunity to run, but he
declined doing he was, therefore, again suspend

to escape, he made tracks most rapidly, and left

LEGISLATIVE PoErRY-We find the foIlow;n, 70
ported in the Milledgevlle Recorder among the pro-
ceedings of the Georgia Senate:
The bill for the relief of the S S jenkins was ta
ken up.
Mr. SHEPPARD Opp. oc Webster, offered the fol
lowing amendnendment which was read:
Be it surely and firmly !enacted,
All husbands that are sorcly afflicted
And wish paration from their wives,
Shall have the boon the balance of their lives.
And that wife who loves not her man,
Be allowed to ship him soon as she
In law make void the matrimonial tie,
Which by the edict cast the fatal die.
All desiring divorces now make the way
And don't delay it for another day,
Which then as oft, in some distampered state,
AS now by some trick depend many fate.
The Clerk (Nr Pringle) read the amendment in
clear and brilliant voice, amidd roars of merri-
word from being heard: AS as order was re
stored, the Chair (Ir Lawton) decided that the Leg
islature did not pass laws in poetry.

Thursday morning. at O'Clock, the thermometer
marked eighteen degrees above zero.
Fun IN PRIsoN.-The following statement, if true,
is singular. We have the authority of the Indian
apolis Journal:
The prisoners in the indianapolis Jail are face
tious set of rascals. Thanksgiving day they hung
