DISGRACED.

Alexandria, (Va., Gazette.
The people Of the United
States were publicly disgraced
and Inundated before the
world, in the capital of the
country, Wednesday, when a
man charged with felony, un>
dergoing his trial, was permit
ted to leave the prisoners box.
in the courtroom, in order that
he might go to the Senate
Chamber, take his seat as Sen~
ator from South Carolina, and
vote upon laws for the govern
ment Of the nation, as Mr.,
Patterson did. Such incidents
afford delight to the enemies
of the republic, and certainly
bode no good to it; but what
else can be expected when
States, in possession Of their
own people, send such men as
Mr., Blaine to the senate, and
when one of the two political
parties into which the country
is divided come within a few
votes of nominating the Maine
Senator for the presidency?
The people choose their own
representatives, ana rarely
fail to select those who repre-
sent them fairly. Evil times
have come upon us. for no
people can, or deserve to
prosper, who delight TO honor
and elevate to high places men
who have been proved to 5e
dishonest and corrupt, and I'M
less a change in the moral
and sentiments Of the voters,
and that for the better, and
speedily, take place. America
will add another to the long
list Of disastrous failures Of
free Institutions.

are fit only for treason, STRAIT
agems and spoils.'' No man
is safe where such vipcrs exist.
No character secure from CO.
vert assaults where such beings
with the image Of God upon
them, while Satan rules their
every impulse, are abroad in a
community. The fair fame of
the noblest man or the truest
woman is the mark at which
the slanderer aims his poison
ed, subtle darts. Envy, sus-
picion, malice and all the evils
turned loose from Pandora's
box are concentrated ir the
heart and on the tongue of the
traducer, and the venom Of
the serpent is emitted in every
word he utters; Such charac-
tiers deserve to be frowned
down, upon the first aspersion
they are heard to make; con-
temmed by all honorable citi>
zens, aud driven from all de-
cent and respectable society.

COWARDLY SLANDERERS.

OF all the detestablc NOR
tails that fatten themselves
upon society, those whose
hearts and tongues delight in
traducing others and publish
ing to the world the foibles of
their brothers and sisters,
magnifying them from mole
hills to mountains, are the
most to be dreaded in q com
munity. The man or woman
who comes out boldly and
charges wrong where he or
she knows it to exist, CONS
mands respect in any society,
but those who whisper idle ru-
NOR from ear to ear, adding
to it as they go, leaving, ieav-
ing their slime wherever they
wind their loathsome track,

young man who begins by
treading on a lady's foot often
ends by kissing her lips. And,
we may add, the same rule
applies on the other side,

to have been as badly delnoralized
as were the Roman legions by their
first encoun:cr with the elephants
of Pyrrhus, and by tine time the
sun appeared above the tree tops
the terms of capitulstion were all
arranged. They asked to be per-
mitted to withdraw unmolested
from the Baton Rouge district,
with all the subjects of Spain and
with all the emb'ems OF Spanish
authority, civil and military, which
was promptly acceded to, and as
promptly carried into execution.
Before noon on the same day the
exodus began, and soldiers and
officers. Regidous, Alcaldcs and
:AIguazils, forming procession Of
several hundred souls, took up the
line of march for the eastern from
tier of the Territory to announce
it's surrender to the fortified posts
of Spain at Springfield and at
Manchac. .-.. :.

no one present to impersona'c his
faociful creations Of what a cavalry
commander ought to be, he called
for that officer, to whom he con-
templated a grateful and formed
surrender of his sword. Perhaps
he pictured in that parsonage a
golden-creste3, naughty, proud
warrior, prancing m his gallant
steed; to such a gallant apparition
he could yield almost gladly, and
feel relieved Of half his load of de-
