While the editor of a Douglas paper in the
town of Oregon, Pa, was away from home
one day last week, several malicious persons
'broke into his Office, run up the Breckenridge
flag, and issued one edition of a first rate
Breckenridge paper, to the great establishment
of the editor on his return home.
1t has been announced that the public ser.
vices OF Senator Seward would end on the 4tll
of March next by his resignation. The most
eminent of the gentlemen named as his sue
cessor is Vim. NJ. Evarts of New York, a law
yer, standing very high in his profession, and
in all respects noble and true hearted man.
The democratic state convention of Ken.
lucky nominated for electors at large, ex.sen-
ator Archy Dixon, the wing who encouraged
Douglas to advocate the repeal of the Mis-
souri, compromise and John C. Mason. The
rest of the ticket is for Mr.. Douglas through
out.
The last time Mr. Seward spoke in Boston,
previous to last night lie addressed Taylor
and Fillmore meeting at the fremont Temple.
The other orators on the occasion were tile
Hon. Abraham Lincoln of Illinois, and the
Hon. George Lunt of the Boston Courier.
Two Of these gentlemen addressed large audi
ences in Boston last night, but they were con-
vened for widely different purposes. Mr.. Sew
ord stood north and Mr.. Lunt south of the
aid rallying point of 1849.-Boston Transcript,
14h
The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, speak.
ing of the immense gathering at the home of
Lincoln on Thursday last, says the procession
occupied three hours in passing Mr.. Lincoln's
house, in continual stream, and was over
ten miles long. Mr.. Lincoln stood on his
porch while this army was passing, and re-
ceived the uninterrupted and vocierous cheers
of the multitude. 1t is asserted that seventy.
five thousand persons were in Springfield dur
ing the day, five thousand of whom were
"wide-awakes" in uniform.
Hon. Edward Bates has returned from the
inhospitable Georgians and is now visiting his
friends in Norristown, Pa. The Wide Awakes
of that enterprsing village succeeded in extort.
ing speech from him few evenings since
OF course Judge Bates exhorted them to labor
zealously for Lincoln.

it became state for, an exact knowledge of
that history would not allow him 10 talk as if
the ordinance of 1877 had been powerless to
keep out slavery. On the contrary, he would
understand that Indiana and Illinois were
compelled to adhere to this ordinance, even in
framing their state constitutions and coming
into the Union as states. In a speech deliver.
ed in the senate, in 1919, Rufus King stated
the case as follows =
"rhe states of Ohio Indiana, Illinois, on the
northwest Of the river Ohio, have been ad-
mitted by congress into the Union, on he-con-
diton and coatormaby to the article Of compact
contained in the ordinance Of 1877, and by which
it is declared that there shall be neither slave.
ry nor involuntary servitude IN drW Of the sad
states"
There was on the part of congress an infiex.
IDLE determination to maintain the ordinance
and those states found it impossible to get into
the Union, without agreeing that slavery
should be forever excluded from their borders.
1t was this policy of congress that killed slave
ry propagandsm in Indiana and illinois,
much to the grief of the first settlers in those
states,

Mr.. LTNCoLN's PHYsIQUE.-Men of the
West may care for personal beauty in woman,
but in man beauty constitutes a very small
claim upon their regard. But Lincoln is not
an ugly man. His features may appear rug
ged to the casual observer, but when engaged
in earnest and entertaining conversation they
assume an aspect at once pleasing and engag-
ing. Many men called handsome by bellies,
lack expression in their features when in con-
versation, whereas the man OF genius tee-
graphs his mind to others not only by his Ian.
guage, but by the masculine charm OF facial
