'sThe President is the statc.n

From the Harrisburg Patriot and Union, Id
"Tbe President is the State, because be ia
tho savior of the State" says Forney, oracle
of the White House. Carve that precious
logic on the White House door; carry it on the
trophy of the President's body guard; engrave
il on the escutcheOn of the Union for q motto
in place of the present. How fine an epitaph
for the liberties Of the generation 'The
President 10 the State"-the President is dele
gated power--the Preoldsnt is Congress and
Judiciary, the impersonation of "righ,s reserv-
ed" the zone of many;" he is the functions OF
the separate States, the process of the Courts,
the imposts and the taxes, the polty and econo-
my OF the Empire-"the President is the
State!" How perfect such creed! Bow tc
Gesler's cap; "the President is the State"--al
hail, the King 1t is a ghastly joke, indeed
when made the best Of; but it sounds muct
like whisper from the throne itself. Poo
dwelling thing. poor crazed, demented Pfesi
dent! to what sublime depth should reasol
fell when hattery can win its ear to such
thought-'she President is the State" ~

The Salary Business in the Legislature.

The Salary Business in the Legislature.
The use OF an adjourned session of the Legis-
lature is to counteract the acts OF the regular
session. Thus each session and each Legisla-
ture propagates legislative necessities, which is
the same thing as propagat;pg ita species, which
seems to be the chief end Of creation. The
regular session was retrenehing aud reform
Ing session; the extra session is laxative. In
1t, astringent condition the Legislature saved q
large amount Of money by some email econo-
mics In salEfies The Supreme Judges we're
cut down from $4,000 to $4,000. The county
Auditors we're also reformed and retrenched on
plan which substituted o bad system for q
good one, with very little If any present gain.
Now bill is introduced to raise the salaries Of
State officers; that of the Governor from 81 800
to $4,000, and, our dispatch gingerly says,
'olhers in proportion"
Salaries are convenient shuttlecocks for leg
islative retrenchment. When salary is cut
down, the sum is as palpable to the people, as q
silver half dollar, dropped into the contribution
plate, would be to the congregation; while the
| lretrenohment which consists in rigid scrutiny
of appropriations, and stubborn conflict With
taxes, is like the dews of Heaven, very refresh
ing, but it makes no noise. Therefore it is un-
worthy the labor Of an ambitious legislator.
How could this Legislature have achieved q
| reputation for retrenchment at its constitutions
al session, il former one had not raised the
salaries of the Supreme Judges from 81, 700 to
$4,000 And how can the next Legislature
have fair retrenchment margin to work on,
to gain reputation, unless this puts up the SAL
aries of State officers2 sf ~
AS one of our morning contemporaries is wont
to remark, when peeling for an article which
shall go to the bottom of things; It would be
well In this mstterto look beyond the transient
and the feeting, TO the vital and the perma-
nent. We give an approximation to the idea,
but not the fine language. There is great
principle at the bottom OF this. If we can fish
it up, We may have some rule for adjusting sal
aries. We would not, OF course, deprive the
General Assembly Of its margin for retrench.

PoRT HUD,oE, Feb. l7.-Cspt. Cannon, from
Red river, brings information of the capture of
the Federal steamer Queen of the West, at
Gordon Landing, Fort Taylor, on Red river.
The Queen of the West captured the Confed-
crate transport Eva Nc. s, forced her pilot,
John Burke, to take the wheel, and ordered
him to take the boat to our batteries. Burke was
frightened, but fually took the wheel under q
Yankee guard. Upon nearing the batteries he
told the Yankees they we're fifteen miles from
them, Immediately putting close in, when she
received shot which broke her steam pipe, die
abling the boat, the Yankees being wholly un.
prepared for q fight, and suspecting no danger.
Burke jumped overheard and drifted ashore.
The boat drifted to the opposite shore, when
her crew escaped with the exception Of eigh.
teen, who fell into our hands. The crew snb-
sequently got aboard the Yankee boat De Soto,
and with two hundred stolen negroes effected
their escape. The Queen of the West Ia now
10 possession Of the Confederates, and will be
toved to place of safety for repairs. 1t is
reported the Yankee gunboat Indianols has
gone up Red river to recapture her.
Later intelligence states that the Confeder-
ate steamer Webb was closely pursued and cap
tured. The Eva is disabled in one wheel.
The Queen Of the West is but slightly injured,
and will soon be in fighting trim, under Con.
iederate colors. CHI 'to U.iiHT 81. .-
We have positive information that the trans.
port De Soto was burned by the Yankees to
prevent her from falling into the hands Of the
Confederat .t.

Wendell Phillips thinks no Regiment

of Whites and Blacks.


WENDELL PHILLIPS, the distinguished Repub-
lican Of New England, has been addressing the
negroes of Boston at the Jay street Church. He
is In favor of mixing up the races in the same
regiments. WENDELL is always little, but not
far, in oduanee of the Republican sentiment
He says: 'At 'a'
Your succees hangs on the general success -
If the Union lives, it will live with equal races
IL divided, and you have done your duty, tn en-
you will stand upon the same platform with the
white race. Cheers Then make use of the
offer Government has made you, for if you are
not willing TO fight your way up to ofiice you
are not worthy of it. Put yourselves under the
Stars and Stripes and fight yourself to the mar
quee OF a General, and you shall come ou. with
sword [Cheersl J
In this battle between freedom and slavery-
for it Ia virtually such-one thing knoW-God
has given the black race its fest great historic
chance for writing It's name high IN the history
of sges, and in the struggle know the blacks
fight well. The question is-Will you of Mas

luctance because yon are not to have ofieeri
OF yonr own color. This may be wrong, for
| think you have as much right to the frat com
mission in q brigade as white man. No reg
iment should be raised without mixture o
the races. IL is as proper as that Rosecrans,
Catholic, should lead an army not of his creed
But If you can not have whole loaf, will 20
not take slice2 That is great question fc
