The Extravagance of tlie <>]>iiosi- TION—FACTS AND FIGURES. The Opposition are just now loud in their professions of economy, and in their denun ciations of the extravagance of the 'Democrat ic party and of the Federal Administration. We took occasion in oar last issue to show how little foundation there was for these denun ciations, by exhibiting the facta and figures in connection with the expenses of the General Government since Mr. Iluchanan went into office. Wc propose now to show that the Op position, North and South, who are so blatant in their senseless clamor about the extrava gance of the Democratic party, arc themselves mainly responsible. as onr great Senator asser ted u few days ago in his speech at Lexing ton, for tlm extravagance in federal expendi tures of which they complain. The public expenditures, a large propor tion of them being regulated by law, are more under the control of Congress than of the Ex ecutive Department of the Government; and, therefore, the policy of any party in reference to them is more clearly exhibited by its ac tion in that body than it can be in an Admin istration of the Government. Assuming this to be a fact, as it is conceded by the Opposi tion to be, we present a few facts furnished by the record of the Thirty-Fourth and of the Thirty-Fifth Congress which are practical il lustrations of the principles by which the Op position are governed, in relation to the ex penditures of the Government, and show that they are themselves mainly responsible for the dxtravagnuce in these expenditures for the last few years, of which they so loudly com plain. These facts, which follow, have been published before in our columns ; and, we may rematk, may be verified by an examination of the official record of the Thirty-fourth and of the Thirty-fifth Congress. 1st. The Legislative expenses of the House of Representatives of the Thirty-fourth Con gress, which was under the control of the Op position, (having a Hlack Republican speaker, and a Southern American Clerk,) deducting from them the sum of seven hundred and ninety-four thousand five hundred and eighty dollars and sixty cents, for the difference in the pay of members under the old and the new compensation law, were three hundred and eighteen thousand six hundred and fifty dollars and forty-nine cents more than those of the Democratic House of the precccding Congress. The followingjs an official state ment, from the Register of the Treasury, which proves the assertion which we make, in reference to the legislative expenses of the Op- teo to Kansas.

The record of the last Congress is the proof of this fact. 7th.

The facts which we have given sh6w that they are extravagant from prin ciple, and encourage in ever}- way an immense federal expenditure. They vote for homestead bills and agricultural college hills, which would deprive the Government for years of any reven ue from the public lands—for river and harbor improvement hills—for pension bills, requiring an annual expenditure of eight or ten million of dollars, for the next ten or twelve years—for bills giving increased sums of the people’s mo ney in bounties to cities and steamship compa nies—for hills appropriating monies for useless custom houses and unprofitable mail routes— for hills giving constructive mileage to members of Congress—for bills to pay the printing plun derers, in short, forall kinds of bills which may increase the expenses or exhaust the resources of the Government And yet, they clamor a- bout the extravagance ol the Democratic party. The Democratic party is the only party, North or South, which lias tlie principles upon which this Government can be economically ad ministered, and tlie power and tlie wiil to carry their principles into practice. Nuts for the Ncgropliiltsts. Fred. Cozzens, in his recently published pleasant volume of the Nova Scotia travels, called “Acadia, or a month with Blue Noses,” relates the following as among his experien ces: TeKMISUS OF AX UxDERUKOt'ND IiAIL- aoAD.—"We are now approaching a negro settlement,” said my compagnon du voyage, aftei- we bad passed the Acadians. In a few minutes we saw a log-house perched on a bare boue of granite that stood out on a ragged bill-side, and presently another cabin of the same kind came in view. Then other scare crow edifices wheeled in sight as we drove n- long; all forlorn, all patched with mud, all perched on barren knolls, or gigantic bars of granite, high up, like ragged redoubts of pov erty, armed at every window with a formida ble artillery of old hats, rolls of rags, quilts, and indescribable bundles, or barricaded with boards to keep out the air and sunshine. “You do not mean to say those wretched hovels are occupied by living beings 1” said I to my companion. “Oh yes,” ho "replied with a quiet Binile, ‘these are your people, your fugitives.” “But surely,” said I, “they do not live in those airy nests during your intensely cold winters ?” Yes," replied my companion, “and they have a pretty bard time of it.” “Between you and I," he continued, “they are a mise rable set of devils; they won’t work, and they shiver it out here as well as they can. During the most of the year they arc in a Rtate of ab ject want, and then they arc- very humble. But in the strawberry season they make a little money, and while it lasts arc fat and saucy enough. Wc cant do anything with them—they won’t work. They arc in their cabins just as you see them, a poor, woe-be- gone set of vagabonds; a burden upon the community; of uouseto themselves, nor to anybody else.” White Slaves of so Account.—“Do you know,” said I, “Picton” what we would do” (we had just emerged from a coal pit) “if we had such a devil's pit as that in the States 1“ “Well,” answered the traveller, interroga tively. •We would make niggers work iu it.” ‘I dare say,” replied Picton, dryly and sat irically, “but, sir, I am proud to say that onr Government does not tolerate barbarity; to consign an inoffensive fellow creature to sueli horrible labor, merely because he is black, is at variance with the well-knowu humanity of the whole British nation, sir.’’ . "But those miners, Picton, were black as the devil himself.” _ _ "The miners,” replied l’ictou, with impres sive gravity, “arc blaek, but not negroes.” ‘Nothing but mere white People, Picton ?” ‘KU ?*' said tin? Iruvelldr. •Only white people, and therefore w'e need note waste one grain of sympathy over a whole pit full of them.” •Why not?" . B 'Because they are not niggers ; what is the use of wasting sympathy upon a rat-hole full of white British subjects ?*• “I tell you what it is," said Picton, "you are getting personal.” A Young Ladv’s Pastime in Pams.—A Paris correspondent of The Perth Amboy Jour nal says that there is a new fashionable epi demic raging in the French capital; a sort of young ladies’ work, the result of which will lost for many generations, 'lbe process is this: You buy a set of porcelain (Sevres, if yon choose) as expensive or cheap as your taste or your purse will admit of; on these you paint beads* landscapes, flowers, or what ever you fancy, with paints prepared for the purpose. Then you send it to the porcelain baker, who bakes it three tiaies, which so fixes the colors that they become permanent, and will last as long as the china. I have seen a complete tea set paiuled by a young lady, which could not be painted for $1,000. Eve ry plate, cup. saucer, preserve dish and cake basket was different, and very beautiful. Of course the baker must thoroughly understand his business, for a minute too long m the oven, or tbe oven too hot, may destroy all. An ar tist who had spent many months painting a piece for the exhibition at the Palais d’lndus- trie, among the collections of living artists, had it cracked in the oven by waut of sufficient care The porcelain plate alone had cost some hundred dollars. Not long since a baker fell asleep and broke $8,000 worth of porcelain, for which he was obliged to pay, and was con sequently ruined. I do not know if you hare porcelain bakers in the United States, hut if you had you would find this far preferable to many other pastimes in vogue. Marcii i.-. „ Dunn’s motion to send a i»»» .^5.

With such Vjord of recklessness, profligacy, and extrav Discovery of an Island. Tlie New Bedfoid Mercury learns by a private letter that Captain Robert D. Eldridge, of the barque Amazon, of Kairhaven, has discovered an island in the Pacific Ocean, several hundred miles from any land laid down on the charts Tlie letter was dated at sea, Jan. 11, 18o9, and in it C’apt Eldridge says uf the island: “It Is in latitude 0 45 north, and longitude 176 35 west, very low and dangerous, and is, I expect, the lxst resting place of the cretv of some of the ships which have been mussed in vears gone by. 1 ran along the lee side within pistol shot of the beach, but it was too rough to land; and after convincing myself that there were no living people upon the island, squared away again. On the highest part of the island is a house apparently built from pieces of a wreck with a flag-staff at one end, from which still dangled the halyard block. Near the house were several little hammocks, each with a toll, upright stone upon it, evidently the graves of the poor fellows who had escaped from the wreck of their vessel, and died on this dreary spot, where perhaps they spent months iu vainly looking for a pAssing sail to relieve them from their weary prison. Vice Pkesident Bkeckenkiinie.—At a demo cratic barbecue in Paris, Kentucky, on the 1st insi., Vice President Breckcnridge being pre sent was called to the stand, hut he only occu pied it about five minutes. During that time he said: . , The Democratic party was, in lius judgment, tlie only political party now in existence which US capable of taking care of this glorious coun try. Organization after organization rose and fell; some lived a long period, others shorter. Some had good lungs and good braias, though the latter were often not very sound. The bust party which passed away [the American] looked out upon the earth and then expired. The death of the democratic party, he said, was pre dicted at every election, hut it is to-dav more healthy than ever. It is no flickering light; it rests upon principles which its opponents can not withstand—it can’t die—it is the only na tional party left in tho United States—a ’fight house set upon the headland of the sea as a beacon light to guide the weary traveler home. "He said that strifes and differences do arise ii their ranks, but for all practical purposes tli entire party was a unit. fertilizers GENERAL* AGENCY. tV rhe undersigned respectfully announces to Planters and others interested, that they are con stoutly receiving direct from the Islands, and from the manufacturers, the following most zrrHovzo Firtiuizxbs mow Knows, all of which have been thoroughly and satisfactorily tested, viz: No. 1 Peruvian Guano, Sombrero Guano, Rhodes’ Super Phosphate of Lime, National Fertilizer, Ground Plaster.

Price 6 cents per pound, 25 per cent, less than Rope. Any one considering the advantages of Iron over Hope as a material for binding cotton bales, will be surprised that it has not been adopted long since.-— In is security against fire, there is an overwhelming reason for its adoption. The presses in the seaport cities have been the main cause of its not being generally adopted; but now that objection is removed generally, and the Orleans Press, the largest in New Orleans, gives it the preference over rope. The Fassman Iron Hoop and Tie is the improvement of one of the proprietors, and is adopted from the fact, that it is found, after long experiment, to combine the greatest merits in simplicity and facility of application of anv one yet made. It is so prepared as to require no change for re-compressing. Thus obviating the only remain ing difficulty at the seaboard cities. The hoops arn sent of any length, from eight ot ten feet, and a full guarantee given that neither the Ties nor Hoops shall break. And farther, that all cotton bound in them shall be received on the same terms, at the Orleans Press, as rope bound cotton.— The weight per bale is about the same as rope, not one ponnd more or less. To show the opinion shipmasters have of it, we give the following, among numerous commenda tions we have: The undersigned masters of vessels, having had cotton compressed with Passman’s new Iron Hoops and Ties, hereby recommend the same. The bales being well compressed, and the buttons or hoops, never breaking when thrown down in the ship’s hold, or when stowed. L.
