The Probate Ofiice.
The wreck ofthe old carbunclcd safe which,
whilom, held the sacred relics of the Probate
once of this district, was taken out of the ru-
ins and its defunct carcass conveyed with
funeral solemnities to the present cupsolous
quarters of our friend the Judge, in Phenix
Block, and on Friday last, its body' was sub-
jected to a post mortem examination. Upon
laying it open. its viscera was found trans
posed to a most capital bed of charcoal.—
Whereupon the Judge, with that eye to prac-
— tical results, for which he is sojustly celebra-
ted, reauuuncisted that old and trite philcs
ophy. that “ there was no great loss without
its gain,” as the mishap,while it has ruined
the character of the safe and safe maker,
would nevertheless furnish him with his win-
ter's stock of charcoal .' Results evince so
much truth that our former christening oi
thisburieaque of a safe, viz: “ Probate Cook-
l'ng Range,” loses all its intended irony.
The Judge has also got his new Stearus d;
l Marvins’ safes repaired and deposted in lllS
ofice, and moreover those books, with covers
all bereft, are rebound. and look as smiling
in their calf~skiu and gilding,as a country girl
In her nowesf calico dress‘aud most prodigiOus
hoop. The Judge is now ready and anxious
to swear (not in a profane way )lhut his rec-
ords are in a better condition than before the
tire. So that his original heavy loss,rnstuiued
in bodily discomfort, is fast being made up.

is said they came over from Five Mile River.
The parties were arrested, and the husband
of one of the women,paid the flue and costs
imposed by Justice Hubbeil.
The frequency of these petty lurcenics
should put all our shopkeepers on their guard.
Itis often apparent that the sole object in view
in the commission of these thefts, is to get
committed tojaii where comfortable quarters
are secured for the winter. There should be
some kind of occupation provided for all
such prisoners, at whatever cost to the'coun-
ty, as the mere commitment, without impo-
sing lubor, is enjoyment, rather than punish-

As the time approaches for a presiden-
tial election, speculation is rife, in regard
to who is to be our candidate, and opin-
ions as to the merits or popularity, of this
or that individual, and as to his chances
for election to the presidency, are as nu-
merous as the leaves of Autumn. That
there is a. strong desire for a change in
our national government, and in its domes-
tic aud foreign policy, is evident from the
results of the recent elections, and the dis-
satisfaction so general among the Ameri-
cau people.
At. present the mauuibcttu‘iug interests
of the country is not. merely crippled, but
seem to be struggling in the last; throes of
death. The yearly cost of maintaining-
the luxury of the present model adminis-
tration is more than the cost of the whole
of our last. war with Great Britain, and
more than the annual expenses of this
country during the Mexican war, (ride the
last report of the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry)yet- this model administration has shown
itself to be one of unbounded capacity, for
its cry is still, Give ! Give! ‘hc money
which goes for retaining a. large surplus
of men about Navy Yards, for no other
reason under heaven, but. to vote for ad
ministration candidates 0.1 election days,
is not a legitimate expenditure, Mr. Bu~
chanan’s opinion to the contrary notwith-
standing.
Thc time was when our presidents merc-
ly recommended certain measures to Cou-
g'rcss, and nppr’ovcd of them when passed.
and that body acted without executive
dictation, or the fear of executive displeas
ure. In our time the president originates
measures, and brings the whole force of his
administration, its immense power antipat-
ronage, to carry them through Congress,
and if a. representative of the Democratic
party in Congress, is so unlucky as to foil
ill harmonizing what he considers to be
his duty to himself and his country, with
the wishes of the president, he calls down
the vcugencc of that presidents displeasure
upon his head, and must cxpcctlhut every
iniiuenC-c possessed by the president over
party, will be used to consign him to pc-
liticul oblivion ‘hus is the independence
of the representative destroyed, and. the.
government pervetcd into a one man pow-
er.
Thus docs J amcs Buchanan by reward-
ing the subservcucy, and punishing the dis-

with ruthless hand strike a blow at repub-

country.
It: is for the American people to decide
whether or not we are to verge into a dc"-
potism, whether or not we are to sacrifice
the interests of the country, to the inter.
csts of party, whether we rescue the ad
ministration of the government from the
hands of blood-suckers that nowfastcu up-
on it, whether peace and prosperity, in-
stead of misrulc, extravagance, and depres-
sion in business are sure to be our lot for
four years from 1800.
At a time like this, it behooves us to
lay aside our difcrenccs,’ and come togeth-
er upon a. platform which shall embrace
the interests of the whole country.—
Wc must disregard this or that individu-
al’s wish to be president, and nominate for
our candidate, one that will be true to the

ZMr. Douglas.
The war upon Senator Douglas has
opened beautifully in Washington. The
caucus Of the Administration Senators
was stormy, but the vote. showed a large
majority to be'in favor of removing him
from the chairmanship of the committee
on territories. The only persons voting
for Mr. Douglas were Messrs. Shields,
Stuart, Clingman,Brown, Toombs, Green
and .Bigler. Seventeen votes were thrown
against him. Mr. Slidell led on the at-
tack, aud there was no concealment of
the fact that the proposed action was in
accordance with Mr. Buchanan’s bidding
though some tried to find an excuse for
their course in the fact that Mr. Douglas
is expected to be absent until J anuary.—
Others maufuliy declared their _ votes to
be decided by the fact that Douglas
holds to the power of a territorial legis-
turn to exclude slaVery, while the South
claims that slavery cannot be prohibited
until after the territory shall have been
admitted as a State into the Union.

warned his fellow Democrats to iwzvnrc t
cf the results of their present ac- 3
tiou. The fact that breach, who
takes Douglas’ place. was his antagonist-
on the Kunsasquestioo, last year, makes
this action the more significant. t-‘rceu
himself voted against. this offer; i‘l :32-
grade Douglas.‘ Senator Broderick was
not. invited into ,the caucus and several
others absentcd themselves, among them
Senator Hammond.
The correspondent of the Tribune,
says :—
It is regarded as demonstrating their:-
hereto the extreme Pro-Slavery Policy
adopted at the last. session—to reduce
the Anti-Lecompton mcu to the position
of a faction, and to drive them from the
party. .
A leading Southern Senator said to-
riny that they hurl temporizwl long enough
and that. thcv had concluded to drive
Douglas out of the party. The South
will tolerate no half-way'position. '
The Anti-Lecomptou Democrats cx-
press deep indignation at. the treatment.
which Douglas has received. Mr. Brod
crick was not invited to the caucus, and
is considered as having been read out of
the party.
Mr Seward, on hearing the result of
the caucus, remarked that it; was the best
illustration that could possibly be given
of the truth of his statement that there
was an irrepressible conflict between free-
tiom and slavery. It. was if greater out-
rage. politically speaking, than the at-
tempt to force Kansas into the Union as
a Slave State. ;»l:ccuuse it indicated a
<etticd determination to tolerate no di-
versity of opinion on any measure which
the South demanded.
- The. Auti-Lecomptou Democrats dc-
t:lare that they will not submit. Doug-
las said recently that he meant to contin-
no the fight with the administration to
the end. ‘

luring in favor of finding him guilty of
murder and two in favor of his zit-quinil.
On the sc‘coud trial he was found guilty
oi‘murdcr and the. sentencgwas set aside by
the Court of Appeals, on the ground that
the Judge in his charge to the Jerry

of the previous good character. Uh

by the Court of Appeals, on the. ground

Hadcongress admitted Kunsasinto the union
under the Lecompton Constitution.the Legis-
ture. might, at its very first session, have sub-
mitted the question to uvote of the people,
whether they would or we rid not have a con-
vention toameud their constitution, either
on the slavery or any ,othcr question, and
have adopted all necessary means for giving
speedy effect to the will of the majority.—~
Thus the Kansas question would have been
finally settletl.—Presidenl’s Message.
It is very well for Mr. Buchanan to
make that ussertion‘uow, when the whole
affair is settled in another way. Such
was not the understanding, then, at
the South. The , Leconipton constitu-
stiiuliou contained a clause prohibiting
on altorutibn till 1864. By accepting
-t.hc cornstitution, the clause would hare
been accepted, and the U. S Supreme
Court would have decided against them,
if,, before 1864‘, they had passed any
laws or 4 made any constitution which
would invalidate the right of holding:
slures- Under that clause, men. woulu
have flocked in with signs. The bold-
ing of these slaves would'liuve been called
crested right, and the U. S. Supreme
Court would have decided that payment
must be made for them if the State, it"
its sovereignty, abolished after 1864, [in-
existeuce of slavery.
That such was the understanding of
the South and the pro slavery party at
: the time, appears from a passage in Sun-
; utor Green’s Rep in. 1He says :
i ' “Many generous persons are intlisposctl
