The Victories of the Democracy.
The success of the Administration has been
brilliant beyond example in our politics; and
,hnse who have represented the President to
have lost ground have been refuted by every el
ection that has taken place since tho inaugura
te!), This succession of victories, too has
been achieved after the policy of the administra
tion had been exemplified in action. The Pres
ident simply recognised the democratic party
as re-united on its old foundation—on those old
State rights and l nion principles, a rigid adher
ence to which has maintained the democracy as
a party and preserved the integrity of (he nation.
He has planted himself on the compromise plat
form. Ho has followed the frank declaration
of the inaugural with an energetic execution of
ihe laws, and carried out in his appointments
file policy of conciliation that was laid down by
the democratic party at Baltimore. The con
sequence is peace and harmony to all sections
of the l nion and victories every w here for the
democracy; tints exemplitiing the old maxim
that r= federalism sinks the country rises.
The success of the democracy should cheer
every true mend of republican progress. The
administration stand firmer in the support of the
people now, than it did on the day of the deli
very of the inaugural. Trie elections show this, j
One of the old whig States is Kentucky, but
when were the whigs badly off as they are i
now T in that State. .with cne-haii ot the delega ‘
tjon to Congress democrat*? Tennessee, too, j
has cut up the whig brigade terribly, by electing j
Andrew Johnson governor by an unprecedented j
majority, and a democratic majority of its de
legation in Congress North’ Carolina has ‘
gained mi her democratic delegation. Wo j
name these States because they are emphatieal- i
ly the strongholds of whiggery. If the ridicul
ous charge of affiliation with abolitionism does
not make capital for those who utter it in these
States, when will it make capital l if we go to
other States at llm .South, to Virginia, Alabama
and ‘I ex:.-, there re th same gratifying results.
I lie old j dominion b-ads ofi with an entire
democratic delegation to Congress. Alabama
has gained a democratic member—ban ademo
rratic ni ijiiiity in her Legislature to elect two
l luted States Senators, and a democratic Gov
ernor. I exas has elected two democrats To
crown all, as to the Southern elections, in the
most important of all, where the Union whigs
were confident of victory in Georgia, the demo
crats have made clean work by electing their
Governor, a majority ot Congressmen and of
the Legislature. Then there is gain of one
member in Arkansas. At the North, the elec
tion in Maine shows a democratic vote large
enough, when united, to overwhelm whigism.
In \ erniont the democracy have made a splen
did gain. Tn Connecticut they have swept the
hoard in town elections. In the great .Statesof
Pennsylvania and Ohio their majority is unpre
cedented. Such are ihe results in six mouths j 1
ot the trial of the policy ol the administration.
When was such success seen before in theca- 1
reer of an administration ! I
These brilliant triumphs should stimulate the
Democracy ol this State to a zealous support of
their ticket. I hey, too, stand on the same plat
idrm with their friends abroad. Their candi
dates give a cordial support to the Baltimore
creed, and as hearty a support to the Adminis
tration. Both are opposed to all coalition.—
Both, therefore, stand on national ground. In
Ohio, in Pennsylvania, everywhere, the Democ
racy have had to contend with all factions, and
have beaten them all. So let it he in Massa
chusetts. [ here is no other true course to take
hut to rally round Bishop and Dowly as the
candidates of the national Democracy-—/hwlou
Post.
Further from Mexico.
We have been favored with the subjoined ex
tract from a private letter to a friend in this
eity. It will doubtless be pertisd with in
terest :
“Gen. Gadsden, our Minister, is getting j
along smoothly with this Government. It. is’
agreed tnat neither American nor M exican j
troops shall occupy the disputed territory in the :
Vlesilla V alley, while negotiations are accepted !
by Gen. Gadsden. The best feeling at present
Heofn= to prevail in the Government toward I
Americans. Tor instance, an American vessel
was detected in smuggling, or at least very i
strongly suspected in the port of Acapulco :
being detained, and an officer having been pla
ced on board until an examination should take
place, the captain one night slipped his cable
and put out to sea with the officer on board.—
He was pursued, overhauled and brought back,
and then with all his crew thrown into prison.
On a representation from (fen Gadsden, how.,
ever, the vessel, and.captain were released.
•‘ Another case occurred at Paso Del Norte.
” here an American stole some Mexican cattle, |
and was placed in prison to stand his trial for I
the offence. There again the American Minis- !
ter interfered, in both instances, lam satisfied !
that right any! justice were on the Mexican side
of the question. But the Mexican Government j
in a written communication to our Minister, in- :
formed him that his wishes in these cases were
acceded to, and the men released out of an es- j
pecial regard for his Lxeellency, Gen. Gads-!
den, and as an especial favor to him ; and as j
■sue.ii they desired him to consider it.
I hero is no doubt ot all this, [t was an es- !
jweia! favor to him, and not an act of policy or j
justice, lint there is mr doubt Santa Anna ex- !
poets to make by tho operation in the negotia- !
tjons now pending ; as his mouth is watering j
for some money under the eleventh article of |
the Trist treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.” New \

Slavs Case in Kentucky.
Avery interesting slave case has just been
decided in the Covington (kv.) Circuit Court.
The case was between Samuel Norris, a slave, |
and J. N. Patton, ot \ irginia. The particulars,
are, that Norris who has been living in Cov
ington tor several years, where he married a
tree woman, and has several children, Was per
iiiitfed by his master, Patton, to hire his own
time, paying him through his agents, Nithers A
Cos., of Cincinnati, his annual hire, which he
always did promptly. The amount stipulated,
was & 100 per annum. About two years since,
his master, Patton, came to Cincinnati and sent
for Sam to visit him, which he did at the house
of his agents, Nithers A Cos., at the same time
the following agreement was made:
Patton agreed to liberate Sam, or allow him
to buy himself by paying the sum of four hun
dred dollars within four years. The surplus,
w hatever it might he, was to belong to the slave.
In accordance with which agreement, Sam
paid at that time one hundred and thirty tour
dollars, and has paid him since fifty dollars
more. It was expressly understood that Patton
was not to sell him during Ihe four years. This
part ot the agreement Patton attempted to vio
late, to prevent which the suit was brought.—
1 fie case was decided on yesterday it) favor of
the defendant, and the suit dismissed by Judge
Pryor, upon the following grounds:
L That the statutes of Kentucky recognise
only two ways of liberating slaves—lst, by
will; “Ad, by deed oi administration.
‘A. 1 hat a slave, by law, is not allowed to en
ter into any contract.
■l. I hat the fact of the agreement being enter
ed into in Ohio, a free State, does not alter the
law, so long as the negro is still a slave.
-1. That, the contract, or agreement, was only
executory between Sam and Patton, and the
time fixed for his freedom was at a future dav
and contingent.
o. I hat so long as Sam was a slave, the
master was entitled to his services, and the money
received hy him was, by law, considered his
own, |
Being a suit of much interest, references were
made by the judge to all the authorities upon
which his opinion was founded. In the conch,,
sum oi his remarks, he said : “I am, therefore
unable to give any effect to the agreement, be’
cause it was made in Ohio; and i feel compell
ed, understanding the law of this case as I do 1
o decide against the plaintiff, ai the, same time i
looking upon it as a great hardship and cruelty.” !
Ihe case was appealed to the Supreme Court ■
of the State.— C’hron. v§- Sentinel.

j such a vast, number of the Southern oeople over j
! ,he or!horn States by which the two extremes ;
of the nation were brought into intimate con- i
nexion. and old associations revived or new ones |
created, has undoubtedly done much to restore I
that natural go -d will which existed previous to !
the agitation to remove groundless prejodi- j
ces, and establish unanimity of sentiment on j
important social arid political questions. South
ern slaveholders, direct from their sunny pjan- j
i ,f ßio:is. have been discovered not to b* the room j

-t A oxet Star fioutifl. — About a month or so
j a* th* Dickinson's l. tndinp “Hawk Evp “
i Mr. J. Smith—accompanied bv Mr. Crvstler—
was hunting on the classic banks of the River
Nation, near Crystler’s Mills, his dogs pressed
close on a deer, which took to the river, where
the hunters pursued it in a canoe. On up
preaching the animal, they were surprised to
perceive it struggling desperately, being every
now and then jerked suddenly under water.
T he hunters immediately approached, and with
the aid ol others at hand, dragged the deer into
the canoe, when to the astonishment of ail pres
ent. a large turtle (some forty pounds in weight)
was found firmly fastned to the deer’s tail,!
which would undoubtedly have been shortly
drowned by its amphibious assailant. ’The tur
tle. retained its grip for upwards of two hours
alter the deer was killed.
‘This extraordinary circumstance is attested !
bv several witnesses, says a Montreal paper.
Tin Fisheries. —The fishing season on the j
Banks and the Northeast coast, just closed, ap- •
pears to have been an unprofitable one to the |
groat hulk of the fishermen. The Boston ‘Tran- j
script remarks:
The time for cod and mackerel fishing is now j
about over, and the season has been a very hard i
one for the fishermen. We are informed that
the average wages earned by the men who have
been voyagers where (he hands had a share of
the profits will not be more than twenty.five I
cents a day. A few vessels have been quite
fortunate, and we hear of one captain whose 1
share will be about #IOOO for the season. In
the fishing districts, there is much discussion re- ■
specting the plans for the future. M any of those j
engaged in th* business will quit it, as there is
not enough profit to warrant its prosecution.
Shocking Tragedy. —A telegraphic dispatch, I
a few days since, mentioned, in brief terms, the !
murder at Louisville, kv., ot a schoolmaster,
Mr. Buffer, by one of his pupils named Ward.
Mr. Butler, it would appear, had slightly pun
ished a little brother ol \V ard for eating cheg
mites in school and telling a falsehoood. ‘The j
latter had gone home and given his brother his j
own version of the case ; and he had deliberate- !
Tv |>urehashed and loaded a pair of pistols, with
which he went and shot Mr. Butler, in cold •
blood, and without a word of explanation. The
N. V. Times says:
“Ward, the principal actor in this dreadful
tragedy, is the author of a book recently pub- j
lished, entitled English Items, which attracted j
some attention from the violence and coarseness
of its vituperation of every thing English. His
family is one of the first in Louisville. Miss
Sallie W ard, the lady whose marriage to Col.
I . B. Lawrence, oi Boston, some years sine*-,
and subsequently separated from him, attracted
public attention, i- hi- sister.'’
Jewish Oppression Re rices!. —By the late ar- :
rival from Europe we learn the fact that the
Austrian government has signalized itself by a
backward step in civiT/.ation. It has restored j
disabilities which the barbarism of the middle j
ages imposed upon the Jews, and which were j
only removed by the revolution of 18-18. The!
Austrian government seems determined that no
benegt shall accrue to any class of its subjects j
from that revolution. Hereafter, the Jews in i
Austria are forbidden to hold real estate in their j
own name, but ali property of that description i
to which they lay claim, must he registered in |
the name of Christians.
CC T A New A ork Sunday paper says that of j
American brandy the best quality can h bought
at wholesale for forty cents a gallon. There
is a large house up town that stills about twenty |
hogsheads a week, and the head of the firm, who :
but a few years since, was a porter in a distil- j j
lory, is now living in a splendid house on one j
ot the avenues, and is in a lair way of becotn- j
ing a millionaire, if he is not one already.’’
JA’ A London physician says if men would
wear their beards in winter sorethroats would go j
out of fashion. Very good advice, but what
would the women say.
Missisippi Colton Crop. —The editor of the |
Port Gibson Herald says: “After traveling :
through forty-eight counties of this State, dur- |
ing the past summer, we feel prepared to sav i
that the cotton crop of Mississippi will fall one- i
third below the crop of last year. The boll
worm and the rot have together visited every
cotton field we have seen, and the injury sustain
ed is immense.”
Statue to Daniel Webster.— A letter from
Florence in the Newark Advertiser, says the
triends of Air. Webster will be gratified to know
that Mr. Powers has received an order from
Boston for a bronze statue of the great states- 1
man, to be placed in front of the Massachusetts
State House.
ICT The New Y ork Herald is of opinion that
the advocates of the Maine Law will have a ,
majory in the New York Legislature.

Nov. 2, A. L., 5853. \
At a regular meeting of this Lodge it was resolved that
a committee be appointed to draft suitable resolutions as a
tribute of respect to the memorv of our (feoea c ed Brother,
JAMES MEACUI M.
Whereas,it has pleased th* Supreme Grand Master of
the Universe to remove from among ns by death, our es
teemed and worthy Brother, severing the. Masonic chain in
our Lodge for the first time. By this solemn dispensation
*ve are reminded of our own mortality—that life is uncer
tain and death certain—that “duet we are and unto dust we i
must return.’’ Brother .Meat-hum is no more ! He was in
deed and in truth a Mason. In life he exemplified that I
that system of morals which he — tho square regu- !
feted uis conduct with society—the level stuck with nis j
brethren—and the consciousness of the presence of tho All- j
Seeing-Eye,the emotions? and desire* of his heart. But !
thee** virtues could not shield him from the .-•troke of the I
Scythe of time, nor stay the victorious ravages of death— |
but though death ia victorious, ii is only for a titn*—and ‘
when this “last enemy shall be1 destroyed” our Brother an
an Evergreen shall y*-t flourish in “immortal youth.’
Therefore R solved, That in the death of our brother
the Fraternity have sustained an irreparable loss; as a ;
friend and brother he was frank, open and generous, us a ;
Mason, exemplary, as a husband, kind and affectionate,
and as a father, fond and devoted.
Reflulved, That the many virtues which were exempli- i
fied iii the life of our deceased brother, are worthy of our j
imilalioii, and in respect to his memory we wear ihe usual 1
badge of mourning thirty days and our Lodge he clad in
the habiliments of mourning sixty days.
Resolved, That a copy of these proceedings le forward
ed to the family of our deceased brother as a mark of our
high regard for him, and as an evidence that we condole
with them under this our and their heavy loss.
Resolved, That these proceedings be entered on the min
utes ofthe Lodge, and that the Columbus papers be request
ed to publish the same.

I the means at their command will authorize.
And it appearing also, that Locomotives, passenger and

j said road have been purchased* and that in all reasonable
; probability that distance of the Rond from Columbu.-, will
j be finished and in operation early in the ensuing spring, all
j being paid for by subscriptions to the stock of the company,
j and without involving said company in debt.
; And, whereas, the citizens ol the city of Columbus, at a
I public meeting, have passed resolutions duly certified to ‘

attached, which shall be payable half yearly, and shall be
I signed by the city Treasurer. That the said bonds and
i couponds for interest, shall be payable at any place within
the United States, as may be required by said company, pro
vided that said Railroad company, shall pay the exchange
j on difference in the value of money between the city ol
I Columbus and the place where said bonds and coupons
j shall be made payable, and shall also take the risk of the
