Prov .dence and tho Presidency.

Hon. john VAN BUREN made an elo
quent speech in Albany on the 18th inst.
1t abounded as usual in humorous pass
sages among which we quote the follow>
ing:
Now, president Johnson himself, it is
frequently said, may die before the expi-
ration Of his official term, but to this my
answer is that no democrat ever died in
the presidential Office. Cheers and laugh
ter Ii is a very curious fact, that our
ing the last sixty FIVE years only three
federal presidents have been elected-Gens
Harrison and Taylor and Mr.. Lincoln.
Each Of these died i'll the presidential Office
ard the vice president who succeeded to
tie cfiice 10 each case was democrat.
50 'ha., during the whole Of these sixty
five years, democratic principle have been
in the ascendancy Cheers I wonder
that some of these clerical republicans
who look for the finger of God in every
thing, 90 rot see what a provdentia|
dispensa,ion it is Laughter No dem
ocratic president has ever died in Office,
and no federalist president ever lived out
bis term in it, showing the wa,chful care
Of Providence over the United States
FROM the fist gun Of the revolution
to the last scene of the rebellion, in no
way has this been more providentally
and conspicuously presented.

UoSoR AMONG THIEVES This is an
old saying, aud if a true one, shows ths,
mankind is totally depraved. But can it
be said to hold good among the wheat
Spectators of Mantowoc, who buy and
sell :or the purpose Of making money.
We have heard it said that some Of these
men have yet 20 learn that there is beauty
and ruth in the saying which has passed
iuto a proverb-" there is honor amonp
thieves, for they will buy to-day a
quantity OF wheat in store to be delivered
to morrow, bu, when the morrow comes,
if wheat should show decline they will
refuse to receive, but if it has advanced
they will insist upon the delivery. Such
men ought to be drunmed out of the
market

They ARE COMING! During the pre-
sent week we have bad fifteen new SUBJ
scriptions to the PRot-most Of them
being from returned soldiers who have
become disguised with the Abolition
party.
At the Democratic Caucus on Friday
evening, ADRIAN ANDREW, Esq, made ar
address to the meeting, in which he openly
proclaimed himself Democrat for the
future. Mr. ANDREW has done more labor
for the Abolition party in this county than
any man in it, but has become disgusted
with the junto of bad men VINO control !,
for their own selfish purposes. And such
men are joining lloDARrs' brigade every
day. There are more coming.

HEAVY STORM Sir Vessels .4shore.-
The heaviest storm that occurred during
our residence here was that of Tuesday.
A perfect gale blew from the south. east,
making very heavy sea outside. Sixteen
vessels and the steamer Planet came to
anchor in the bay, all of whom rode out
in safety, except the schooners Franklin,
Selt, and Belle. The former was beached
between the two piers, and the latter tw 0
came ashore north of the north pier.
Three unknown vessels also came ashore
just north Of Two Rivers. 1t is presumed
they will all be got off with little damage.
During Tuesday night the wind shifted to
the north east, which caused the sea to
run down, and dispelled all fears for
further danger to the vessels at anchor.
