Let it be re membered that tbe people in their sovereign capa city distinctly and unmistakably willed, by their suffrages, that the Capitol should remain at Mil ledgeville, and consequently any bill removing the Capitol to any other place will be directly contrary > to the wishes of the majority of the constituencies in this State. * y P- S. A very laughable occurrence took place to-day in die Senate chamber. The gallery was filled with pretty ladies, and several of the mem bers, unable to resist the temptation, left the dull arena of legislation, to go and breathe a lighter, pleasanter atmosphere, and whisper soft-nothing to the fair. A\ lute thus enjoying themselves, some envying, less fortunate member, interrupted the proceedings of the House, by moving to grant leave of absence for the remainder of the day, 10 the I members in the gallery, supposing they could not sufficiently compose their minds to come down t<> ; dull business. Tbe permission was loudly and unanimously granted, much to the discomfiture of the “ladies’ men.” ;From the WustauyUm Union.' A Proclamation. />// the President of the fnited States of America-. Whereas, indications exist that public tranquili ty and the supremacy of law in the Territory of Kansas are endangered by the reprehensible "acts or purposes of persons, both within and without the same, who propose to direct and control its political organization by force: It appearing that combinations have been formed therein to resist the execution of the territorial laws, and thus, in ef fect, subvert by violence all present constitutional and legal authority : It also appearing that per sons residing without the Territory, but near its borders, contemplate armed intervention in the af fairs thereof: It also appearing that other persons, inhabitants of remote States, are collecting money, engaging men, and providing arms for the same purpose : And it further appearing that combina tion* within the Territory are endeavoring, by the agency of emissaries and otherwise, to induce in dividual States of the Union to intervene in the af fairs thereof, in violation of the Constitution of the United States. And whereas, all such plans for the determination of the future institutions of the Territory, if carried into action from within the same, will constitute the fact of insurrection, and, if from without, that of invasive aggression, and will, in either case, justify and require the forcible interposition of the whole power of the general Government, as well to maintain the laws of the Territory as those of the Union. Now, therefore, I, Franklin Pierce, President of the United Slates, do issue this, tnv proclamation, to command all persons engaged in unlawful com binations against the constituted authority of the Territory of Kansas, or of the United States, to dis perse ami retire peaceably to their respective abodes, and to warn all such pri sons that anv at tempted insurrection in said Territory or aggres sive intrusion into the same will be resisted, not only by the employment of the local militia, but also by that of any available forces of the United Stetes; to the end *>f assuring immmunity from violence and full protection to the persons, proper ly, and civil rights of all peaceful and law-abiding inhabitants of the Territory. It, in any pare of the Union, the fury of faction or fanaticism, inflamed into disregard of the prin ciples of popular sovereignty which, under the Constitution, are fundamental in the whole struc ture of our institutions, is to bring on the country tbe dire calamity of an arbitrament of arms in that Territory, it shall be between lawless violence on the one side, and conservative force on the other, wielded by legal authority of the general government. I call on the citizens, both of adjoining and ol distant States, to abstain from unauthorized inter meddling in the local concerns of the Territory, admonishing them that its organic law is to he executed with impartial justice; that all individ ual acts of illegal interference will incur con dign punishment; and that any endeavor to inter vene by organized force will be firmly withstood. I invoke all good citizens to promote order hr rendering obedience to the law ; to seek reinedV for temporary evils by peaceful means; to discoun tenance and repulse the counsels and the instiga tions of agitators and of disorganizes; and to testily their attachment to their country, their pride in its greatness, their appreciation of the blessings they enjoy, and their determination that republican institutions shall not fail in their hands, by co-operating to uphold the majesty of the laws and to vindicate the sanctity of the Con stitution. In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to 1 be affixed to these presents.

Anxious to extend its influence, an i olace it upon a substantial basis of support, th - Publisher de-ires most earnestly to direct the attention t>! the thinking public of America to its I claims upon their consideration. The main feature ot the t ill i r. 17 1 ON is its A-- Smrx of < 'ur •> ;,t LlCrntnre. In this department are <riven thorough and able criticisms of all the most important books as they are issued, pointing out rheir chief characteristics, and indicating their moral tendencies, thus keeping its readers inform ed of all new publications which deserve their at tention. tr VLSI) CONTAINS Copious Intelligence of Affairs in the Literary World; Gossip concerning Books and Writers; Announcements of contemplated Publications; and Lists of New Books issued in America and Europe. The Grama, Music, Fine Arts and Science, also receive attention, and several columns of carefully selected and agreeable matter are given in each ! number. In addition to the above .there is a de partment of Miscellanea for reading, of an enter taining character, carefully selected from new books and the ablest reviews, and a weekly collection of Notes and Queries, which contains a great variety of curious and valuable information. It is confidently believed that a journal such as the CRITERION, cannot fail to have a good effect upon our national literature, and to some extent upon our national character. It will be found es peciallv valuable in directing the attention of youth to works of real excellence, and encouraging an j appreciation for valuable reading, which is being 1 rapidly destroyed In the circulation of superficial and sophistical books. To the leading man the j literary intelligence alone must render it very tie- j sirable; and to all who wish to promote an im provement in taste, the encouragement of merit, * and an uncompromising condemnation of vicious j si vie, mock sentiment, and evil principles, such an enterprise cannot -at least, should not—be indif ferent. To members of Historical, Literary and Scien tific Societies, Lyceums and Debating Clubs, the subjects discussed in this paper will, sit all times, prove of peculiar interest, and it is the de sign of the editors to thoroughly canvass, from time to time, those important philosophical ques tions which agitate all inquiring minds, correcting false theories, and encouraging profitable investi gat ion. The CRITERION is published at -S3 per annum, | payable yearly, bait' yearly, or quarterly, in ad- i vaiice. Specimen copies supplied, on application I to tile Publisher. CHARLES R.
