True, the Nnsliville organ does not Bay it in so many words, but the logicnl inference from Its language mjs it with distinctness that leaves no room for cavil abont its mean ing. ''Thousands have claimed to be democrats who never knew what demo cracy was." All such, of course, are not democrats, according to the reasoning of ' Jjigy Now that another Presidential election is a troacliin:. the political leeches that have been sucline tho life-blood of , tlie orSnn. an(J taking the number from the country, and fearing tho indignant verdict of a plundered and deluded people, are 'making a tremendous fuss about eeonomy. They threaten to tax the cor respondence of the people, by an increase of postage, after lavishing hundreds of thousands of dollars upon partizan favorites who have ' contracted for the public printing. They talk about making editors pay postage on all their exchanges, when they pay to the carriers of tho over land mail sixty-five dollars for every let ter. ,They threaten to restrict the frank ing privilege, and propolSo to give a mil lion and a half of dollars a year to Ocean mail steamers. And thus it is with all the sum total of rank and file, how many will remain? Let us see; and in making the calculation, we shall assume the demo cracy of the Union and American to be the simon pure article. Douglass is not, a democrat, neither are those who take him as their guide and their name is legion. The advocates of the Pacific railroad are not democrats, be cause they advocate internal improvements by the general government these include the followers of James Buchanan. Those who advocate specific duties are not demo crats, because they advocate a tariff that will discriminate in favor of protection an odious whig doctrine these, too, fol- JQT.

With not a few of its members, we are personally acquainted, and, judging the mass by the samples, we are brought ' to the conclusion ' that such an assemblage of upright, patriotic, and talentod men has rarely met anywhere, or for any purpose. The unanimity with which Hon. W. L. Gogfcin was nominated as tho opposition candidate for Governor, is a just tribute to his talents and moral worth, as well as ah evidence of the har mony that pervaded the Convention. The nominee will give honest John Letcher trouble,' and if Virginians are, as of old, will beat him badly. 3r One Pyne, U. S. Marshall for the Northern District of Illinois, has been charged with embezzling the publio money, and other misdemeanors, and the charge is sustained by competent proof. But the correspondent of the N. York Timet says Buchanan declines to remove him because it would bean admission of the truth of Douglass' statement, that the Illinois ap pointees are a pack of scoundrels. This is the way our government is administcrd by democrats. Appoint rogues to office and keep them in office, rather than acknowl edge they are rogues. their proposed retrenchments a great ado low James Buchanan.

His high order ef talc uU, powers mm a debater, known in tegrity of character and extensive populari ty point him out as tho man for the crisis, ami the satisfaction with which his name i every where received in this connec tion inspires confidence that, as the candidate ol tho opposition, tho State can be redeemed from tho harpies that con sume its substance, and befoul it character. At this particular juncture, no one can fail to see the importance of bringing out, Cor every position, the strongest and best men. Upon tho selections to be made, more than upon all other considerations, .depend tho issue of the August election. The- shivered fragments of democracy, like 'steel-dust to tho magnet, will gather around tho glittering contents of the treasury, whonevcr tho cry is heard, by . which they are periodically summoned to rally around the feast of plunder, and Nothing but men, strong and truo, who can arouse tho slumbering patriotism of ,-i-f , . . exhibits on mo opposition, enn succossiuiiy me. 9 Mie ovmy of mercenaries who tight for pay.

', The third meeting of -the -Democratic eaueua of the House- of 'Representatives was held at the Capitol last night. Mr. Jones, of Tenn., oeeupied the chair and Messrs. Jenkins of Vs., and Pendleton, of Ohio, acting at Secretaries. ' I ' ' ' ' Mr. Phelps, of Md.; introduced a scries of resolutions to the following effect. That the temporary necessities ot the Govern, ment should bo met by an extension of the law authorizing the issue and re-issue of Treasury notes for a period of two years, that the appropriation bills ought to be acted on as specdly as possible, that the expenses of the government ought to be reduced to the lowest point consistent with the wants of an economical administration of the government. Mr. Phelps argued briefly the necessity and importance of-immediate action to avert the nccesity for an extra session. Mr. Crawford, of Ua., proposed the lol- lowing as a substitute for Mr. Phelps's re solutions : Rtntlvcd, That it is inexpedient and un necessary to deBturb the tariff of 1857. Resolved, That the temporary necessities of the government should be met by a re issue of treasury notes. Rcohed, That the President be reques ted to convene the Cabinet and submit to them the estimates heretofore presented, for the purpose of ascertaining what de duction is practicable. Mrv Crawford made a speech in advoca cy of his proposition. Mr. Hatch, of New lorlc, desired fur ther information on the subject before he would be prepared to vote.

Second Were her papers lound correct: Third If the American flag was still flying when her hatches were opened, and if not, under what circumstances, and when, it was hauled down?

They have done all this, according to the Union & Ameri can, and they are reaping their reward. They aro proclaimed to be unworthy to bear the hallowed name of democrat, and are denied' the "personal advantages" which they supposed it would confer." Perhaps this is all right ;. but it does not square with our ideas of justice and common decency. And had it been our misfortune to have assumed the demo cratio "badge," from whatever motive of "personal advantages" this hint would not have boon lost upon us, and we would have "cussed" the whole concern, trampled tho "badge" under our feet, and enlisted under another flag, where, if we received no pay, neither would we receive insult. Bg The Richmond Enquirer insists that Buchanan's views on internal im provemunts are federal and anti-demo cratie. What does it think of the millions of acres of the publio lands bestowed, by democratio administrations, upon the new States, for railroad and other improve ments? Is there any difference?

It is exempt from all danger of explosion, cleanly in its use, free from all odor, and suited to all purposes, from the lady's work-table to the lighting of streets it is at once orna mental and useful, and so simple in its construction that a child can understand the principle. Mr. Bosler can remain but a short time here, andwould be pleased to make an ar rangement with some suitable person for the sale of the Gas Generator in this county and on terms that will make the arrange ment profitable to the individual who may take the business in hand.

A letter from Paris, from a prominent source, states, on information received from Madrid, that it wan not probable that the Hon. Mr. l'reeton will be received as U. S. Minister, but, if he ahould be, tho first intimation from Inm relative to the pur chase of Cuba would be deemed sufficient L-roiind for giving him his passports. Our Government, however, is not in receipt of any official information from Spain on that subject. It is stated in well informed circles that the reinstatement by Miramon of Zuluoga to the 1 remdnnoy in Mexico was at the in stance of France and England, who have nn especial interest in his administration in connection with the debU due those Governments. Tho effect of the vote in the House to day, laying the Nebraska contested elec tion case on the table, is to continue J udge Ferguson in his seat as delegate from that territory. The impression Drevails that the Drono sition to place money at the command o the President to negotiate for the acquisi tion of Cuba will pass the Senate, but will bo defeated by a large majority in the House Wasuinuton, Feb. 12 lloute.
