GREAT MAN.-Among the candidates for
United States Senator from Nebraska, is Gen.
C. II. Van Wyck. 1t is name that will be new
to many but to Republicans who remember the
few dark and eventful years in Congress that
preceded the triumph of 1850, Gen. Van Wyck
can hardly be stranger. The Republicans were
in manority, and powerlcss to do anything but
make themselves heard by the country, until it
became aroused to the impending danger. In
those days, some speeches were made that were
immortal. Mr.. Van Wyck was then member
of Congress from New York, having been elect
ed from lately strong Democratic District.
He delivered enc of the most witty, incisiye,
ringing eloquent, convincing speeches ever ut
tered in Congress, that fairly electrified the
country, and contributed largely to hasten the
grand triumph of 1850. lie afterwards served in
the Rebellion, and became General Nebraska
wOuld honor herself by the election of this man,
and would secure Senator who far surpasses in
ability any man who has ever represented that
State in the United States Senate.

rB- Gen. John A. Halderman, United States
Consul at Bangkok, Siam, has sent us copy Of
the Sidmee Gasette, of that city. 1t is quarto,
of two broad columns to the page printed on
paper of a brownish tinge, and the print some
what dim. The characters do not resemble the
Chinese-more of a cross between German and
Chinese-and the lines run evenly from left to
right like the English There are some terribly
long words, and the spacing is very wide, re-
minding one of the closing matter in daily pa
per, where one paragraph is made into many
short ''takes," and the printers space with SIN
quads, TO make the lines come out even. The
reader will please excuse from making any
extracts from the SiHmese Gazette. We've lost
our specs.
