was heard Of the runaways until Wednesday, when,
much TO the surprise OF the Tiadephians Mrs. Mesner
returned all tears and rcpentng, to ask forgiveness OF
her outraged husband. She and Bader had wandered
about, spent their money and the unhoy alliance like
all such wicked affairs ended in QUARREL and the wife,
relying upon the old love OF her husband left Bader and
returned to her former home. Mr. Mesner, possessing
Of the milk Of human kindness than usually falls

THE POLICE AND THE BURGLARS.-NO one can
complain that the newspapers are deficient in
reports Of burglaries committed in the city, as
they generally average about two or three .
day. But, for all that, there is not a morning
passes that several heavy cases Of burglaries
are not reported to the police captains which
never find their way into the papers at all, aud,
moreover, which nobody ever hears word
about after the aggrieved party makes his re-
port at the station house. This curious fact
arises from the system pursued by the police,
who, when a burglary is reported, usually re-
piy-"Say nothing about 1t and we will catch
the fellows and recover your property" But
It happens that "thc fellows" are never
caught, nor the stolen property returned
We heard of burglary on Friday night last
in Eighth avenue, where no less than $1,000
worth of property was stolen, but no account
Of it was published. 1t was reported by the
owner of the store to the captain of police,
and no doubt the fact was carefully stored
away in his memory, but that was poor con-
siderstion for the man who lost his goods.
The truth il that the police are ashamed Of
the great number of burglaries committed, and
they think more of hushing them up and
keeping the facts from the public than of pre-
venting them or detecting the thieves, which Is
only another evidence of their inefRciency.

WASHINGTON, December Is, 1860.

rior Department arrived here from New York under ar
rest this morning. He conveyed Immediately the
district JAIL but by consent Of United States Deputy
Marshal Phillips, he allowed to proceed his resi-
dence in street, where Justice Goddard the instance
Of the Cabinet excepting Gov. Floyd appeared and
quired the defendant to give bail for future examination
in the sum of $4,000.
The counsel Of Russell asked the Justice TO allow them
the space Of half hour procure the re-
quired sum, which considered exceedingly exces
sive although much less than the value the property

The LATE FRAUDS IN WAsHISGToS.-The re-
publican newspapers are making great fuss
about the recent robbery in the Interior De
partment, and the sage conclusion they seem to
arrive at Is, that it is about time that Honest
Old Abe" took the reins of government in his
hands. This would be all very well, perhaps,
II one party was less corrupt and demoralized
than the other; but ii 30 happens that 1t is not,
and the people will have to suffer as much from
the republicans as from the democrats. II the
republicans have not stolen as much as the
democrats, II Is because they had neither the
power nor the opportunity up to this time, but
we find that wherever they are in Office
throughout the States they have always had
their hands deep in the public treasury, and
we observe that they never came out empty.
We have published enough Of corruption,
fraud, defalcations and lobby swindling on the
part of the republicans for the past year to
alarm the least scrupulous nation in the world.
Werhave not the least expectation, then, that
the new regime will establish a better condition
of things at Washington or throughout the
country, unless Congress does something to put
o check upon fraud and corruption in the pub
lie departments, so Is to enable Honest Old
Abe to carry out an honest administration OF
affairs. There is nothing in the character OF
the republican party to base any hope upon In
this respect

"THE RIGHT OF FREE SPEEcH"-The right
of free speech, like every other right, may be
abused and turned into RIGHTEOUSNESS That
of the very constitution which guarantees it, we
have abundant evidence. Henry Ward Beecher,
Wendell Phillips and George W. Curtis have SO
abused it that it is necessary to employ the
police and military force to protect their per-
sons from violence in the three principal cities OF
the North. This treatment is bitterly complain
ed Of by the organs and abettors Of the orators.
A great outcry has been raised by the republi-
can journals and orators against the Southern
population because they take the law into their
own hands and execute summary justice upon
incendiary abolitionists who try to SOW the
seeds of serviie instruction among the negro
population. But when this question comes
Northern people, and they find that the
harangues Of the abolition crusaders have
brought the Union to the verge of dissolution,
and vast muititudes of the population
to poverty and starvation, they begin to
think it is time to put stop to them; and
the fears of the orators go beyond the inten-
tions of the people, and hence the employment
of the police.
The idea that the amendment to the constitu-
ton which establishes liberty Of speech confers
the right of RIGHTEOUSNESS and secures to every
citizen an absolute right to speak or write or
print whatever he pleases, without any respon-
sibility, public or private, is" says Judge Story,
ga supposition too wild to be indulged by any
reasonable man; for that would be to allow
every citizen right to destroy at his pleasure
the reputation, the peace, the property and
even the personal safety of every other citizen,
and to stir up sedtion, rebellion, and even
treason, against the government itself, in the
wantonness Of his passions, or the corruption
of his heart This is just what the emissaries
of abolition have been doing both at the South
and the North, and the people of neither Sec
ton seem disposed to give them free scope
anylonger.

when has Mason county ever gone wrong!
You know how long and how ardently, for the sake
Of our common country and of humanity have desired

ciac party. Entertaining the same political views which
my father held and so long advocated should be false

teaching if did not rejoice in the almost certain disso-
luton OF this incubus, which has 0ug weighed upon

corruptions have produced It's dsntegraiion and
thank my God that in all probability shall liveto
the day when il shall be swept from the face Of be-
loved country IL is said that many good and conserva
tive men in the election Of 1856 voted for Buchanan
the ground OF his greater availability in defeating the
Republican candidates. These men, fit be so, must by
this time have their error that both the Repub
and Democratic parties equally sectional and
think in the future may be safely counted the sup
porters Of National and Union candidates believe also
that there many good Democrats who rejoice
the party chains by which they have been long bound
falling from around them and leaving them free and
shackled pursue hereafter the which patriot
ism and duty alike indicate
If in the election OF 1856 the united Democracy, aid
ed by many conservative men, could carry this State but
bv little 1900 majority what prospect have they
of success, divided as they between Breckiu
