Our Carrier desires us to say, that in ac cordance with an old and well-established custom, he will, on the first of January, present to the patrons of the Nonpareil, a New Year's Address, and indulges in the hope that those to whom he has served the paper faithfully, will freely "come down with a dime or two," for the benefit of him telf individually and collect-'™lj- Fe Pre" iune he would not refuse 'siller' from even an "outsider,"—nor from those who have not, through inadvertence, regularly receiv ed weekly visits from his honor.

Oftilil ef the Land Office. In our last issue, we stated that we had been informed by the Receiver, that there was a probability of the Lund Office in this city being opened for private entry on or before the first of February next. We did not wish to be understood as saying that official instructions had been received to this effect, as such is not the case. We make this correction with a view of preventing any wrong inference gaining currency in this conncction. The report in regard to the probability of the opening of the Land Ofice, though not official, comes from a who so nobly prosecuted the work of com pleting tho structure, and through whose means, wo are to enjoy its accommodation during tho present season.

And sometime about midnight, a light from Heaven shone down brighter than the sun, so that a man whose name was Levi, who was passing that way, was' ena bled to bind up his wounds, and take him to a hotel, when he gave the landlord twen ty-five cents, and told him if it cost more than that he would foot the bill."

We have at present only a single reflection to add. W hen the Kansas-Nebraska law, out of which this deadly feud has arisen, was proposed at first in Washington, the Whig party, by unanimously opposing the propo sition, would, in our judgement, have con solidated its self, and shattered the Demo cratic party into hopeless fragments. It failed to do so, however, and, as a necessa ry consequence, flew into hopeless fragments itself. But justice is never wearied. It is certainly some consolation to know that, if the Whigs forfeited their existence as a par tv by neglecting to cut the throat of the Democracy with the Nebraska law, the Dem ocracy are on the point of doing the job quite as handsomely and effectually for themselves. Unquestionably tho whole dra m~ of Kansas is one of the finest instances of partisan retribution which the annals of republican politics afford Q"5?"At last Henry Ward Beecher has lec tured in Philadelphia. lie has several times had nn appointment to show himself that city, but on eneli occasion some accident gtage ii.li I courses—"We shall probably commence closed.

The returnes from everv township in tKe county but the one we speak of had been recieved at Toledo, nnd the vote of this very township was needed to tell how the county had gone.

Frekn Mexico. The news from Mexico, by the last arri val, shows a most wretchedly bad state of affairs in that unhappy coontry. The pro mulgation of the extraordinary powers gran ted to Comonfort had been apparently fol lowed by no important result. On tho night preceding their promulgation, it seems, an other revolution in favor of Santa Anna was actually contemplated in the capital, and the next day a whole battallion of the Na tional Guard had to be disbanded, while a number of persons were arrested and impris oned as participants iu the rebellion. 'Ihere had been risings of Santa Anna Prvnttnci aclos in various quarters, bnt their efforts were all detaehed, and consequently ineffec tual. The fall of Comonfort eventually, however, is considered certain. The steamer Tennessee, which brings the news from Mexico, also brought a number of distinguished individuals, who have been banished from their country by Comonfort. Among them are Gen. Mariana Salas, who was President of the Republic during the war with this country Gen. Pacheco, Gen. Augustine Zives, Gen. Calleio, Gen. Gui tian, Col. Jose Washington, Col.
