ImbeeIliry wen shown Up.

While cOgitsting upon the disgraceful spec
tacle Of great nation without On executive
head we come across thefollowing portrait in
the New York Post.
The ofics-holden and secessionists call
Mr.. Lincoln minority President. It has
happened before that a misority of votes
made an election Of which Mr.. Buchanan is
an instance. On the question of his going
out however, his vote is unanimous.
There is something almost ludicrouS in the
imbeciIity Of the administration of the Q. s.
government. Over the door of the White
House should be written, Insults received
here" Senators of seeding States cannot
conceal their contempt Of the government
they rppudiate, and take leave of Congress
with an insolence which would be insuppoft-
able, even If It came from the lips of spotlesE
honesty and loyalty. l am constantly re-
minded Of the story of the rough teamster
whose cart was followed BY weak old man
commanding him to stop--a command tc
which the whistling teamsterpaid no heed =
ssWho Is that old man2" inquired passer-by
ii0h, said the driver, athat's father" @Why
don't you obey him2' "WelL" drawled out
the other, ''thats good joke. NOneof US a
home care anything for what he says Moth
er don't, and / don't and Jake don't, srd
we'eve S'enamost taught the dog not 70 mind
him I"
In The ignobls art Of bringing government
itself into contempt no other man ever equal
led James Buchanan. Even Florida IS no
afraid Of him or Of what he represents.-
Wellington said that Napoleon's presence il
The French army was equivalent to 40, O0C
soldiers. Gen. Jackson in the White Hous
gave some such increase Of Vigor to the o
S. goFernHsat; and what General Jackson
presence gave, James Buehanan's sbsene
wOuldg give.

nan q -. Hon. Iohn 9. wr,rhr

Yesterdays telegraph advised Us Of the
dscease at Washington Of this. venerable
and talented gentleman. He was a resident
Of Ohio before the war Of 1912, prominent
lawyer, and in 1s24-5, prominent member
ofoongrsss. We remember well bis encoun-
tsE1 Of wit and logic with john Randolph
Of whom the Judge entertained no fears
About twenty years since be was elected to
the Supreme Bench Of Ohio, a place be soon
resigned for the practice Of law in oineiuna-
Ii. Afterwards, on the death Of Charles
Hammond, Judge Wright became editor Of
the Cincinnati Gazette.
For some years he has been afflicted viz
blindness. BE was at Washington city as
one Of the Peace Commissioners from Ohio.
Probably at bis age the journey vas toe
much for q constitution somewhat impaired
b. application to mental labor'during a busy
life.
he was sOea astacked.sby paralysis which
caused his death.
Judge Wright was one Of the prominent
men Of the nation.

nesses, it seems very little consideration i
shown for the comfort of Mr. Lincoln. he
is beset squeezed, shook, pulled and ASSAULT
ed generally. We hope our citizens will re-
member that the fstigues Of such journey
must last 8 or 10 days. The enthusiasm Of
those who wish to see him and to take his
hand is wsH meant but nevertheless they
viii do well to reflect that no hand can bear
perpetual shaking. Mr.. Lincoln should az
rive at Washington in healthy and buoy
ant state. his official duties viii be enor-
nous for the first few months. The fate Of The
country may depend upon bis health and
ability to attend continually to business.
We are not sure that be will reach here
entire. After the pulling and hauling be
underwent at Cincinnati, his joints may be
some Of them already out Of joint, or atleast
very sore. If the Pittsburghers are as tend
erly inclined, we fear they may tear of some
Of his limbs for keepsake. viii not our
citizens and the committees remember how
much more he needs rest and quietness than

ne Pennn Onnrention.

This venerable body in which is centereo
at this moment more influence than there is
in Congress, has great difficulties to meet.
One Of the first and greatest is the appre-
hension that there is no guaranty for the ad-
bsrancs of the Southern States to any proPo-
siHon.
Can President Tyler and bis colleagues bind
virQinia2 What regard will Gov. Wise and
his confederates Of the Golden Circle pay to
the wishes Of the OonventiOn2
Tennessee aad Kentucky may be relied
upon.
How is it with Maryland and Missouri j
the terms agreed upon do not suit the hlibus-
ter element of what value will they bs2
Suppose that articles of arrangement are
signed By all the members of the Convention
and the legislatures or conventions of the
Northern States ratify them what guaranty il
there that they viii be carried out good faith
We want something that shall be reliable
We do not see OF hear of any propositions
guaranteeing efectuslly secure passage tt
our citizens through Missouri and othel
Southern States. These are effective enough
modes proposed to catch runaWayS and t.
protect sla-,ss in transit, but as to persona
protection Of white men and efficient mode
of securing kidnappers We do not see them
These come in the gentle shape of recon
al and Just Of any yet presented, but even il
this, free men are not the first consideration

m M Pro1ldent,s speeches.

Thus far Mr.. Eiuoolu's addresses appear e
US to be as appropriate as his previous silencs
had been iudicious Eztempore remark
by a President elect, whose policy is yeti
bs exposed, are certainly delicate ezpen
mepts. Thus far Mr.. I. has acquitted him
sslmsslf not only crsditably but nobly.
Oar Democratic eotemporsry is not exact!
suited with bis speeches any more than D.
was by his silence. This is an evidence no"
differently diRerent persons may view the
ssus thing he thinks Mr.. Lincoln will
nrvs4 cross Mason and Dixons Line, If be
does not retraos the indianapolis speech
Mr. Lincoln has, we think, much less desire to
cross this line alive than be has 70 hnd and
% maintain a government there, The hrs'
question is, ,WhsthsF under the administrator
Of the respectable white orayat now at the
head Of aSAirs, there is or is not govern
menti There is a Peace COMMITTEES end
Pesee Congress in session, but in any correct
political sense there is aOt a government.
Mr. Lincoln did as he should on the eve o
bis being proclaimed constitutional Presl
sept rive to the reousaut States and to ther
numerous sbettOrs in and out Of Congress
in and out Of peace conventions, diStin9
appouncenent that be intends, arst Of all
that there shall be An acknowledged eonsfi
tntional government The basis Of this, am
the evidence Of it is the execution Of 1t
laws. Those who are not for the right
executing the laws are for the other side, an
that other side is nothing more than what
asked for by the Slave OOnfederacy. Case
| may oecur, and do occur where it is policy
delay legal action, but when The Executive
the United States proclaimed that he wOul
do nothing, he admitted that there is ne il
herent power in the United States. There
no middle ground. Forbearance and etOr
at mediation are good n their place, but
= admission that there is no power and no di
position to enforce law is an abandonment
tbs government.

Mr.. Lincoln was introduced to the night
session Of the House Of Representatives this
evening by Gov. DenRlsou, and made a brief
speech, containing no special features, but
generally humorous and suitable to the occa
sion. The Hall was crowded, aud the aP-
pearance and remarks of Mr. Lincoln were
greeted with hearty applause, A large MN
Der Of ladies were present
At the residence Of Gov. Denuison this
evening, MIR. Lincoln received some friends
while in another part Of the hosPitable CUB
eruatorial mansion the lady Of the Governor
introduced Mrs. lincoln. Refreshments wer'
furnished in prOfusiOn, and general gOot
time was enjoyed.
If Mr.. Lincoln is not worn out before h'
gets to the White House, it will not be 70
want of long rides by day and long reception
BY night. Anything but tough Westerl
constitution would speedily break down IN

The Toronto Daily Globe raises new is
sue in regrrd to the locus stand of the seced-
ing State of South Carolina:
Suppose that this IA dissolution Of the
Unionl is consummsted, some curious ques-
tons will arise with regard to the national
standing Of the seeding States. Great Brit
ain has recognized the National independence
of the United States; but does that necessa-
rily involve the recognition Of the nationah-
" Of South Carolins, for example, when she
ceases to form part of the Union Her
colonial relations 70 Great Britain only ceased
in virtue of her being merged in the United
| States, whose independent nationality was
recognized by the mother country, When
she ceases then 10 form part OF that nation
ality, does she not by the law of nations,
revert to her former position of Colonial de-
| pendence on Great Britain7
In the year 1870 he British Government
for the sum of 81, 500, purchased the Caro-
linas from company Of merchants. When
no longer under the egiS Of the American
flag, will they not again, IN the nature o.
things, bsc6me the -propertY Of Great Britain?
ddce der Old tltIe deeds 70 tue cotLon proa0
cling territories in the South. Her manufae
lures form so important an element 10 th.
well-being of her people that it is not con
venient for her to be dependent on foreigner
for her cotton supplies.

The following are the resolutions which
have been adopted, without dissent by both
branches Of the Wisconsin Legislature in ref
erence to the so-callsd Personal Liberty
Laws; sH FIfI..
WHEREAS, The States of Kentucky and
Maryland, whose citizens suffer more loss
than those of any other States from the
escape Of their slaves, unmoved by any such
Iretexts have lately declared their loyalty
to the Constitution and the Union. And
WHEREAs, The people of Wisconsin, in
spired by such examples of patriotism as
well as actuated by sense of their own
duty, are ready at all times to meet fratsEnal
advances in the spirit IN which they are made
and to maintain in good faith any provision
of the Federal Constitution. Therefore,
RssOIUsd By the Senate The Assembly con
curing, That the Judiciary Committee Of th'
Senate and Assembly be directed to examin'
and revise the laws of this State relating Il
kidnapping, habeas corpus, and the rendition
/ Of fugitives from labor, so as to make tn
same in ali things conform to the Constitu
ton of the United States, if il anything they
