This gentleman was the Free Soil candi-
date for the Presidency in 1852, and has
been one of the strong pillars in the Ad-
ministration party. He has made an ex-
posure of the inconceivable rascality that
has characterized some departments of the
Government under this Administration,
and he has also taken quite strong ground
In favor of State rights. This would not
answer. He must be silenced, and yet il
would not do to imprison him. Therefore,
he has been exiled to Spain, as Minister to
that Government.

The Independence Of the Admin-
istrntiOm Press.

A journal that belongsto "all the decency
and all the morality party" evidently does
not find it very smooth sailing to animad-
vert upon the failure of its party friends to
redeem the "promises' they made when
they were engaged wheedling the people
into their support. In commenting on this
subject, the journal we refer to says:
"When the current of spoilsis turned from
the pockets of opponents to thoseof friends,
they are likely to have avery changed ap-
pearance, and it requires something more
than partisan strategy. to resist IL. we see
this on eueyp hand and in all parties-in some
more than others, it is true, but still, more
or less, in all; and they, in any party, who
undertake to apply the same rule to their
own party when In power that was adopted
by it when out of power, will find they have
a hard road to travel fany doubt this,
let them try it. Let any political paper, for
instance, commence denouncing In its par
ty friends for what all denounced in their
opponents, and it will see how soon 1t gets
into trouble"
AS there has been only one party in pow
er for some years, it must be the party in
power to which "the current of spoils " has
given "a very changed appearance" and
the denunciation of which by faithful and
impartial editor of that party-if any such
rare object has an existence in the party
secures for him ga hard road to travel
And the invitation is extended to any Ad-
ministration journal that is sceptical on
this point to try the experiment. A very
free country is this, truly. We did suppose
that the only press that is subject to the
scowls and prosecutions of the Administra-
tion, is the Democratic press; but appears,
by the showing of this editor, that the Ad-
ministration press is completely subju-
gated press. They dare not utter anything
in disapprobation of the doings OF the pow
ers that be. They seem to be constrained
to cover up and apologize for the short
comings and malfeasance of the party in
power. This, perhaps, may serve as an
explanation why journals that few days
ago denounced Vice President JOHNSON for
his drunkenness, and urged that he be re-
quested to resign, are now engaged in rep
resenting it as comparatively insignif-
cant affair. They may have received or
ders to change their tone on this subject
May heaven guard people who look to
such press for enlightenment.

The, Ohio Legislature--"Abscn-

N|a
We give place in our columns this morn
ing to an editorial that appeared in The
ohio State Journal on Friday morning in re-
lation to the Ohio Legislature, under the
caption of "Absentees." BY a perusal OF
this editorial, the reader will arrive at the
conclusion that the Administration portion
of the Legislature are an absolute failure
that they ignore the obligations they are
under to their constituents-that they have
been seduced from their Legislative duties
by railroad passes. The Journal does not es-
TEEN it ''pleasant duty" "to call attention
to these delinquencies Of the public SER
wants." yet it conceives it "a duty" to DO So
The delinquency of the Administration
members have certainly become very great
when The Journal feels constrained to cen
sure them SO severely for it. The remedy
it proposes, is legislation prohibiting rail-
road companies from giving to men,
bers of the Legislature free passes. The
free pass system may, probably, be, to
a certain extent, Objectionable; but a
man who can be seduced from his duty
to his constituents by a free railroad
pass, is not the proper man to be elected.
The correction of this evil lies in the hands
of the people. If they shall, in the first in
stance, insist that the men seeking their
suffrages for public places shall be men OF
unbending integrity, of excellent common
sense and average ability, the evil now
complained of will be measurably done
away with. This, however, will not be
done so long as the Administration party
feel confident of electing overwhelming
majorities of any sort of men, and during
the continuance of such overwhelming as
tendency, the least deserving men, as a
general thing, will crowd themselves into
public places. When it shall have been
made unmistakable that the Administration
party holds power by doubtful tenure,
better class of men will be put forward for
the suffrages of the people. If the Spring
elections shall be carried by sweeping ma
jorities by the Administration party, it is
not reasonable to suppose that the next
Legislature will be an improvement on the
present one. 1t, therefore, becomes the
duty of Democrats to work with the utmost
energy to triumph at the Spring elections

THERE is very general protest among
young ladies in the Western States against
the proposed importation OF virgins from
Massachusetts. Notwithstanding the Pres
idential Arithmetic tending to prove that
the country has increased ilpopulation and
wealth during the war, it isPaiufully appa-
rent that there is not superabundance
of manageable men. So many of them
have been made food for powder that the
few left are in active demand. Western la
dies, under ordinary circumstances, are
Justly confident OF their ability to secure
husbands that will please them, andEindeed
have been rather fastidious. The war,
however, has made so many widows, that
these, in conjunction with the misses, think
the Puritan damsels had better stay at home,
or look to some other locality than the West
as a market for the disposal of themselves.
They are understood generally to be strong
minded, and, therefore, equivalent to men
in everything, save trowsers. Why can
they not make an improvement on Bloomer
and marry each other?

THE attempt to grow oranges and lemons
in California is every year becoming more
successful. The principal groves are at
Los Angeles, where there are half dozen
men engaged in the business. Oranges are
grown in other places in the State but
mainly in gardens, and for private use.
There were about 10000 oranges and 10000
lemons grown last year at Los Angeles.
This year nearly 100000 oranges and 10000
lemons have been raised in that vicinity.
The oranges grown this year are larger and
in every way better than last years crop,
and sold at the groves at three dollars per
hundred. The largest growers are two
Frepchmen at the Mission San Gabrial
whose crop last year amounted to abou
$4,000 oranges, besides quantity oflemons

THE New ATLANTIC CABLE. -Messrs Can
ming and Clifford are to commence laying the
telegraph cable across the Atlantic in June
next. The Great Eastern will have 500 hands
on board, with weight Of 5000 tons, lnclud-
ing 1900 tons Of cable, and 1000 tons OF coal.
The conductor is formed Of seven copper wires
and as there are 2, 300 miles Of cable, there will
be IL, 900 miles Of copperwire. Every portion
of this wire is subjected to electrical tests,
and then covered with eight successive coats
Of insulated material This coat Is covered
with jute, and the jute is covered with ten COW
cred iron wires, each of which is covered with
five strands of tarred hemp. The manufacture
and preparation Of the cable is going on with
great rapidjty, aud there is every reason to
hope and believe that this coming experiment
to secure Geographic communication between
England and America will prove a success.
