Sparkling wit appears to have been a very
prominent feature of the Banner editorials for a
few weeks pas’, evincing a very sudden and un-
expected development ofsmartness in that usu-
ally very dull and stupid affair. To explain this. =
would be somewhat difficult, unless we adopt the
conclusion, which facts seem to renderinevitable,
that all this smartness is the olfsprittg ofa very
precocious little fellow who glories in the hilt‘-
of Rev: whose young ambition prematurely ovct‘.
leaped the confines of the nursery, and bids fair
soon to release him from its su'atIl:'ng i'ncuntLrmz-
bes. The correctness of this conclusion is the
more probable, frotn the rapid (lawn and expan-
sion of his ret:c'rence’.s intellect, whi lt has been
so sudden as to outstrip altogether public appre-
ciation ! This being the case, we must congrat-
ulate “the party” upon the important fltltllllull
lhey have made to the instalment of talent and
democracy wli'cli they recently brought from
Stamford between two (lays .’ That /ifs rever-
ence has talents somewhat rare, we think all will
atliriit frotn the evidence we are able to adducc.
This evidence, some of it at least, will be con-
sidered quite conclusivt.-,as the source from which
itcomes is so di:-interested, and the authority in
all respec s so co.i.petent, being no less than the
testimony ‘of the gentl- man himself! Other
portions ofit are drawn from a source entitled to
great Wru't.’e. For instance, the St'n,;r’et'cn Blan-
urcripts. the first Chapter of which was publish-
ed to the world with a fiout'i.sli oftrumpets, with
the name of his rc~t:~.re,ncc—-“l’:v " and all—duly
displayed at the head. The stibsequetit chap-
ters never saw the light, but by a fllli‘tl(1CCt.(fe.”li of
the stupid printer, were “covered up warm” in
the ashes of oblivion ! Presto, what a fate for
the labors of that lleverertd head! It will hardly
be necessary to do more than bring fortvard /‘it’:
7'ct'-erenc-;’s own testimony, to ptit this question
at rest——-beyond cavil. So here it is reader, self-
bcgotten, taken from the last nttmber of /its 7'61,‘-
ercncc’s mouzli-piecc——the Banner. lfit is not
rich, then we are unable to appreciate literary
excellence, and mozlcst merit !

Juoctzs or Pnomrr-..—Tlte present incumbents
have in nearly every case been reappointed. A
change however, has been made in this District
This has, we suppose, been considered expedi-
ent on accountof the delicate state of herilth of
the present Fudge, who has servetl the ptiblic so
long, variously and faithfully. The appointment
it will be seen, has been given to Sidney B.
Berirdsley. The appointment is a good one.-‘
Mr. Beadsley is a young man of more than ordin-
ary talent, and his professional career has been
s“u‘ch during his residence among us as to gratify
the hopes ofhis friends. His appointment was
generally expected, and will meet the approba-
tion ofthe citizens of the district. The business
ofthe office, we think, will not suffer iti his
hands. __ ___ _, .

is pretty good ground to conclttdctliat the Legis-

‘be feeling has become prevalerit that some-
thing should be done to add fttrtlier securities to
the school fund. Some deem it the bcttlcr course
to snpersedc Mr. Beers, be having" had the con-
trcll ofthe fund for nearly twenty years, and
putting in some other conipctc-tit man by which
means, the exact position of the futid may be-
come confidently known. We do not know that
any one lays. the charge at Mr. BL-c-rs’ door of a
want of honesty, but so large a fund—2'wo mill-
iotzs of tlolhtrs, all agree, should be guarded with
the utmost watclifulness, and accessible to other
eyes than those t'.:ftl:e otlictrr that controlls it.
The more prudent course probably will be adop.
ted by the A$L:utnl.ly, cfmtilriiig no removal, at

‘These documents, Mr. Colton says,
make developments that are perfectly as-
tounding, and go to show that all the bar-
gaining was on the side ofJ_ackson and his
jfriends. It is proved by them, we are
ltold, that Bticliarian came to Mr. Clay
from Gen. Jackson with a direct offer, and
that Houston also went to Hoarie with an-
other direct offer. The snarl into which
lit gets Biichanau, .lackso'n, Eaton, &c. is
atterrtptsto get out of the dilemma, when
he foundtliat Clay was too noble to be
bought, annihilates Buchanan, and Buch-
anan in endeavoring to throw the burden
from his shoulder drives the General to
the wall,wliile Gen. Eaton eats them both
up. The disclosures exhibit the Jackson
men of that. period who surrotmded their
favorite candidate in an almost ludicrous
light, while it fastens t1 blot on l3uchanan’s'
forehead he will find it impossible to wipe
out.’
Polly .B0(lE.'lZ3.-—-‘V8 regret to hear, says

expresses the opinion that her iinprison-,

the idea of being executed for the crime,
is totally banished from her mind. Slte
