Judge Douglas bud the Iniwn. It was painful to the old friends of Judge Douglas to see and hear him on Monday evening in the Senate Chamber. He was not only controverting the great doctrine of territorial non intervention wmch he has claimed so much credit heretofore for having aided to establish, but he was doing so against the known policy of the party under > hose Hag he has won ail the position and lame which he nas ever enjoyed in public hie. He had the sympathy, as he spoke, not of such Senator* as Hunter and Toombs, and Mason and Fitzpatrick, and Brown and Slidell, and Clay and Benjamin, and Blight and Jones and Gwin, but ef be war 1 and Hale, and Freshen King and Trumbull, and Fessenden and W ade, ana Doolittle and Sumner, and those with wtum these latter Senators are accustomed to set. How changed Irom that Douglas who led the fight on the Nebr.n-ka bill and claimed no less than Fresidentiul honors lor having done so ! No wonder that he labored heavily in his argument, and thai his speech tall far short ot his reputation, and of what was expected of him by the public ! This is the general opinion given ol it by those who heard linn ; but we shou.d uot now allude to the speech at all, had he not gone out ot his way to attack an article which appeared in this journal Some tour or hve mouths ago. Of course (be article h id nothing to do with the Kansas bill, and furnished no justihcatiou tor his course upon it ; ind his parole of it shows how dreadfully desti tute of appropriate m iterial he must have been fur his speech, and bow eagerly he was grouping about to find something winch he could torture into an excuse tor his conduct. Waal will be said, however, of his ho..esty and fair dealing, when it is understood that he could only make the Unioni’i article usetul for his purpose by placing on it a construction and giving it a meaning which the Union itself had tally and plainly dis ivowed. It was absurd, as Mr. Toombs well said, to charge upon the Democratic party a sentiment which had only been avowed in a single ar tide of a newspaper, and never defended any where else ; but it was worse than absurd when this sentiment bad been disclaimed by that very newspaper,and the article which had been thought to emOody it had been explained as intended to convey a dilfo-eui meaning.— Washington Union.

[Corrsipluddnc-j of Ui« Baltimore Sun.) Washington, March 23. The Majority in the Home for the Kansas Aimis uio i—Tie Objections ot Abstractionists—Mr. Douglas' Speech, SfC. It is now certain that a majority of at least ten exists in the House in favor of admitting Kansas with the Le?omp on Constitution. If a shadow of d >ubt still hangs over the late of the bill, it is because a few democrats on both sides of an im aginary line wished to amend its phraseology vo.thnut changing its substance, either tor the pride ot consistency or to satisfy the prejudices of peculiar constituencies. Is it possible tnat in a mat ter which concerns the fate of the Union, and with it that of the whole contiuedt, men should allow a mere abstraction, without any practical advantage to either section, to stand between them and their duty to the country? Amend the phraseology as you please, the sense of the hill and its consequences will remain the Bume. The great point to be gamed is to get rid ot the agitation which destroys the conserva live party ol the Union, and to restore peace and h trmouy to a distracted confederacy. Shall the fato of this great repunlic, identified with the hopes of mankind, depend on a mere quibble, or a few words without a special meaning in law or politics, to gratify Buucombe? The men who vote on the Kansas bill now before Congress do not a.a merely for the present hour—their deed will live alter them, and consecrate their names either to the gratitude or curse of posterity. Mr. Douglas’ speech last night was not equal to his former efforts, and disappointed even his new friends. W hen a man is not thoroughly convinced himself, it is impossible for him to convince others. Say what you please, Stephen Arnold Douglas feels very uncomfortable in his new position. 17* We are informed that Heilscher, the editor of the Republican German paper at Indianapolis, has taken down the ticket from the head oi his piper, iu consequence oi the bragging and black guirdism of the Fort Wayne Twines. That paper called him an "ill-mannered, fool Dutchman” and boasted that the Convention repudiated him and Juliau and their ultra anti-slavery doctrines.— Heilscher smells Know Nothinism id the arrangement, notwithstanding that German on the ticket.—Richmond Jiffersonian. iLr"Squibb3” “wants to know” if doctors, by looking at the tongue of a wagon, can tell what ails it?—Exchange. Persons who are not doctors can often tell, by listening to a wagging tongue, what ails its owner. ALL, SORTS OF PARAGRAPHS. —Rev. Mr. Kalloch has arrived in Kansas, and entered into a law partnership with John L. Pendery, formerly of Cincinnati. — Some fifty speeches were made in the debate in the Senate on Lecompton, one of the greatest debates in our history. — The upper Wabash papers report the river and all its tributaries very high. At Williamsport the bottoms are overflowed, and the waters were still rising on Saturday. t — Mr. Bruce stated in the Virginia Legislature, recently, that there had been, in the last thirty years, a decline in slaves, as an element of population, of 7 per cent. — The Chicago Times recently stated that there was hut oiie Administration paper in Michigan. Th« Detroit Herald says at least thirteen papers in the W olverine State support President Buchanan, and "more coming.” — On Thursday last a great flood occurred on the Grand River, Canada West. At Brantford, a portion of the town was inundated, but no very serious damage appears to have been sustained. At Galt, a bridge was totally destroyed, and two men barely escaped with their lives. — A Nsw Tcaairoav.—A resolution was introduced into the Wisoousin Legislature proposing to cede b ick to fie General Government all thit part oi the Stale lying North of the third correction line, provided Michigan will cede back that part of her State North and Westot L ike Michigan, lor the purpose of forming a new Ter ritory. — The present number of stores in New Hampshire is 2,7J3, or one to every 3,1 families of half • dozen each. Does uot Uue exhibit in a nutshell the busiueae of trading as over-done? Only think of it! twenty families of half a dozen persons each (12i} in all) to support a store bv any fair income of profit! Ye men of New Hampshire, look to it, and let your forsaken fields call you to repentance and wisdom. — Lafatsttb and La Salle R. R.—Hon. Al bert S. While, of Indiana, was in this city last week looking after the interests of the above proposed roed. A gentleman who is better posted than ourself informs us there is scarcely a doubt but that the road will he completed from Lafayette to Athkum, on the Chicago Branch of the Illinois Central, at an early day, giving a very direct route from this city to ths Valley of the Wabash.—Ckscmy Prom. — Land Salks in Kansas.—The President has issued his proclamation for sales of the public lands et the land oflees at Ktekepee and Lecompton, Kansas Territory, in July next. The first sale at Kickapoo on the 5th July embr roes 798,095 seres, and that on the 19th, 701,082 acres. The sale at Lecompton on the 5th July will embrace 756.446 acrca, and that on the 19th 656,511 acres; making an aggregate of W13, 134 scree. These will be thefirstpnbUcealeea government lands in the Territory.

Whnt Cwmetlutee m Democrat! A Democratic orator recently, in a public speech, defined a Democrat to be one who rotes the Demoeratic ticket Voting is probably the best evidence or test that esn be given of political belief. Faith without works is dead. Barren and useless is principle unless it has a practical application. Professions of sentiment arc of but little consequence unless they influence action. The Democrats who took position against Jackson and his Administration, professed to be better Democrats than he. They, however, voted against the measures of the party which sustained him. By voting with the opposition they soon became identified with that party organization. Their voting for the men and measures of the opposition defined their positionProfession of Democracy, while voting against the policy and candidates of the Democratic par ty.was not sufficient to continue their identity with that party. So in 1854. A large number of Democrats in this State took position against the Democratic Administration upon its Territorial policy as developed in the Kaosas-Ncbraska bill. They claimed to be the true Democracy, yet took position against the Democratic organization, and opposed the Democratic ticket. The professions of Democracy of such men as Mace and Morton amounted to nothing while voting the Republican ticket. Voting that ticket identified them with the Republican party—it made them Republicans. When we see a professed Democrat or Republican becoming very tender-footed about candidates or voting the ticket of the opposite party, it requires but little sagacity to anticipate the end. As a general rule they go over to the party whose ticket they rote. This result hardly ever fails. There is a great deal of force and comprehensiveness in defining a Democrat to be one who votes the regularly nominated Democratic ticket. It is the only practical test of political sentiment. Third parlies standing upon a single issue have become obsolete ideas. In the coming can vass there will be but two parties, the National Democracy and the opposition party. The choice will have to be made between the two. And how will sympathy or association with one or the other be determined ? By voting. The voter who votes the Democratic ticket will be known as a Democrat, and the one who votes the opposition ticket will be set down as an anti-Democrat. The State ticket nominated by the 8th of January Convention will be supported by Democrats and the ono nominated on the 4th of March will be supported by Republicans. Voting for one or the other will be regarded as a test of political sympathy and sentiment. It will determine political character and associations, if the experience of the past is a safe criterion by which to judge the future. If Democrats who opposed the Democratic ticket in 1854 and 1856 became thereby identified with the Republican paaty, we know of no good reason why the same result will not follow opposition to the Democratic ticket in 1858. Whatever evils there may be in the party, or whatever changes may be necessary to consolidate it and to give it vigor and progress, they can be remedied and accomplished by influences inside of its organization more readily and effectively than by any which can be brought to bear outside of it.

O* Judge Wright, of Logansport, passed through the city on Thursday evening, bound home from a visit to Kansas, where he designs to make his future home. He expressed himself delighted with the soil, the climate and the future prospects of the embryo State. He is reported to have said, that the people of Kansas, or a majority, would prefer to be admitted under the Constitution to be framed by the Convention just elected, but rather than not be admitted into the Union and vested with the full direction of the domestic policy of the Slate, they would aceept admission under the Lecompton Constitution and change that so as to make it acceptable to the will of the majority Judge Wright is an intense Black Republican.

ConffreMiwnai Committee for tbe Sixth District. The last Democratic Congressional Convention for this District appointed John R. Elder and A. P. Morrison, of Marion; A.G. Selman, of Shelby ; John Slaughter, of Morgan; Edward Clark, of Hendricks; George Tagueand J. W. Kightley, of Johnson, a Congressional District Committee to serve for two years and until their successors be appointed, whose duty it shall be to call District Conventions, fix the ratio of delegates, and do such other business as it is usual for such Committees to perform. This Committee is, therefore, empowered to fix upon the time for holding the next Congressional Convention for thit District, and to decide upon the ratio of representation. " People's Peatee Meetings ”—In consequence of the throng attending the "People’s Prayer meetings,” Wesley Chapel, Meridian street, the upper room instead of the basement is now occupied. In addition to voluntary prayers written request* were yesterday sent np by sinners. We ara rejoiced to note that the good work still goes on. Defxectatkd Assets of the Pennsylvania Bank —The recent statement of the appraisers appointed to examine the assets of the Pennsylvania Bank, reveals a most singular chapter in bank management. Werememper no instance of late years where the interests of the public have been so utterly sacrificed, and the Presideni and favorites of a baak have been so gorged with ill-gotten spoils. Tbe failure of the old Bank ot the United States, under tbe auspicious of Nicholas Biddle, wss hardly more disastrous, and compared with AUibone, Biddle was the pink of

honesty.

From tbe appraisers’ statement, above refered to, we learn (bat the present eatimated value of $683,696 67 of securities found in Allibooe’s safe is only $56ASS 84, or a little over eight cents on the dollar. The amount of overdrafts and balance of notes and obligations in the hands of tbe trustees, for the benefit of other banks, foot np to the amount of $128,510 ao, which tbe appraisers value at Jmtf tkne doRmrs

tmd thirty em ends/

It was upon such securities as these that Alii bone and his co plunderers drew nearly seven hundred thoeesnii dollars from the bank. One would tt»M.h that with tbe history of this huge swindling transaction before them, coupled with the downfall of tbe U. 8. Bank, tbe people of Philadelphia had sdBdent warning to Induce them to look pretty sharply after baak m

Tfce Belifflna* Beltglwas Bwwlwal. The lecture room ot Wesley Chapel was crowded to overflowing at tb$ noon Union Prayer Meeting yesterday, and increased terror and solemnity pervaded tbeaaaemhlage. GrentoaeCien animated those wbe leed in the devotional exer cisda. The exortstions were pointed, practical and heartfelt. We noticed that all classes of the community were represented iu the meeting, and all ages, from childhood to those whose bleached heads gave evidence they were fast approaching the allotted years of man. The meetings held in the different Churches are, also, increasing iu interest. Christians are being revived, and sinners converted. We give the following interesting items of exchangee. The New York TYihune, in noticing the prayer meetings held at Burton’s old theater, iu that city, says : It may be well to state, for the benefit of those attending these meetings, that numbers of pickpockets are generally present. PittsscaoH.—It is said that 1,000 or 1,500 persons have recently united with the Churches in Pittsburgh. The Revival in Cleveland.—The PLsindealer says tbit the religious revival in Cleveland continues with unabated enthusiasm. Something like a thousand persons, of both sexes and all ages, have been converted within the past few weeks. Morning and evening prayer meetings are held at most of the Churches, aud are largely attended. In fact, a deep aud altogether unprecedented interest in religion is everywhere manifested in Cleveland. A correspondent gives the following account of the good work in Philadelphia: There is no abatement in the fervor oi the great revival now in progress among the churches in and all around this city. On the contrary, it is evidently becoming more general and intense. Vast crowds continue to assemble daily at Jayne’s great Concert Hall, iu Chesnut street, to indulge in prayer, and to listen to the numerous preachers of all denominations. Among these the Rev. Dudley Tyng, a low church Episcopalian, is very promin’ nL These meetings number 2,500 to 3,000 persons. Persons of all l&iths and creeds unite harmoniously in prayei and singing. Telegraphic dispatches pass to and fro between the meetings aud other assemblies in other cities, so that the meetings may unite in simultaneously singing the same hymns. The enthusiasm of the occasion gives even to the telegraphic wires a new and heretofore undiscovered magnetism — the sympathy of Christian effort—for these messages ol love pass over them free of charge. Atone of these meetings a clergyman stated thit fi.ty members had been added to his church the previous Sabbath. Daily prayer meetings me also held at Handel and Haydn Hall, and they, too, are prodigiously crowded. The same animated exercises and fervor prevail. At St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, a daily prayer-meeting is also held, to which all denominations of inquiring minds are publicly invited. At the Nazareth M. E. Church, meetings for prayer and Christian ex perience are held every afternoon, and are numerously attended. At this church the revival has been five weeks in progress, and three hundred have been added to tbe fold, one hundred of whom were men. At St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church, prayer-meetings are also held every evening. In the churches all round this city the same miraculous awakening seems to prevail. It is by no means limited to those denominations which have aforetime been considered as especially given to indulge in revival excitements. On the contrary, it evidently em braces almost every form of church organization. In this unexampled conviction of the public conscience, the clergy are most laboriously active.— Those who preach extemporaneously have new and onerous tasks imposed upon them, many of them preaching three times daily throughout the entire week. Yet they faint not, but seem to grow stronger day by day. All the newspapers, secular and religious, testify to the extraordinary number of persons added to to the Church in this revival. Hereafter, no doubt, reliable statistics will be collected ou the subject. It will be as interesting to be able to measure the results of this movement, as to identify its primary causes. The religious revival of 1858 is so remarkable for its simultaneous magnitude, that it will be pointed to herealter as one of the epochs ot tbe century. Whether the true measure of the good it may accomplish is to be ascertained by merely counting noses, is somewhat doubtful. H istory admonishes us that great national revivals have often followed great national calamities, and that they have also sometimes preceded them. The careful student of the signs of the times will not lose sight of the coincidence which exist everywhere around us, moral, monetary, but especially those of a political character. The Philadelphia Ledger makes the following sensible comments upon the great religious move-

ment ;

But the most noticeable feature of the present religious movement is, that it springs up so di rectly among the people themselves. We do not say that it springs from the people, because we would rather hope and acknowledge it as one of the blessings coming in the course of His providence and grace from the Father of Mercies. But we mean that, we find it commencing among the laity rather than the ministry, and not under the powerful preaching of some revivalist. No Elder Knapp, no Mr. Spurgeon, no Mr. Whitfield or Wesley, uo ministerof any denomination, is prominent in the movement. No one man seems noticeable at all. Merchants lead the meetings. The universal right of the citizens peaceably to assemble and petition, is one of those political rights of greatest value in earthly citizenship. So the great natural right and duty of every man who believes in God to pray to bis maker is here exercised with a simplicity, a freedom, an interest and a power, worthy the consideration of all. In former seasons of this kind, preaching has been the great means of good. But here business men turn aside to pray for five minutes, and find it does not distract, but calms and elevates their minds, and fit them better to grapple with the cares of

the day.

The lay feature of this movement is, at least, suitable to the genius of our institutions. It is democratic. And it is well calculated to benefit the men who engage in it. Men, after praying for others, and speaking to others, will certainly be less likely to go and do a wrong act. It must and will, we hope, introduce a higher sensitiveness as to right and wrong into all their transactions. It ought, and further, it must, if it do this, tend to elevate the whole people into that knowledge of religion that shall make each able to form a sound judgment for himself as to right or wrong and all religious matters; no one else can do this so well. This will not make men less disposed to appreciate the value of sensible and pions pastors. If every citizen were educated in a knowledge of physiology and the laws of health, it would only improve the char acter of the physician, and make the most intelligent sought after and appreciated. Only ignorant quacks would be the sufferers. So the more the people cultivate the knowledge of religion

s.

lor themselves, and an intelligent consciousness the higher Vill be the state of virtne and morality in the whole community, and the greeter their estimate of really wise and enlightened religious teachings. So far, then, this is a movement in advance of any thing ever yet witnessed, because it tends toward* maki: g the whole people in all, even business relations more enligtened, virtuous

aud religions.

The pogrees of religion sod of all good, in a world like this, is. by no means, straightforward, as we all know. There are many seemingly backsets, many ebbings and flowings, of all the tides of good influence among men; but things never go really back to where they were before, and never moYa merely round and round in circles without progress. It is in spyral cycles that all good advances in ths earth. Geld lm le we. Mr. Eldridge, of Laeas county, write* Burlington Hosekeye: Mr. Editor:—Gold has been discovered iaClark county, this state, about eight miles north of Osceola, on the road leading to WinterseC A few days since I had occasion to visit the place and examine for myself, and am satisfied there is no humbug about it.

Arrangements have been nude to open two other leads which have times here discovered. Grant exdtmeat prevails through this section of Gw in regard to it. More anon.

Cfcamffn *f Cwmstttwtlwfe. We here before named four States that initiated measures for e Bhangs of constitution ia direct disregard of the mode pro .-iffing for a change in the instrument itself. We now give another instance where the Legislature of a State (Ma rylsad) has submitted to the people a proposition to change He constitution in free of a prohibition of any change in the instrument itself before 1863. We find this foci staled in the speech of Mr. Kennedy, of Maryland, delivered in the United Stales Senate on Friday, March 15th. Mr. Kennedy concluded his able speech as follows: “One other point of view I will allude to before I conclude, and that is the inalienable right of the people )f a Staw, in the exercise of popular sovereignty, in conformity to law, to amend their constitution in their own way and for their own purposes. The Legislature of my own State of Maryland has, within the last three days, passed a bill on precisely that ground, all parties concurring in it. A men cans and Democrats have just passed a bill to take the sense of the people on amending the constitution of Maryland, which note has in it a clmme prohibiting Use change or amendment of that constitution until 1862. ft has been done in accordance with the forms of law. It is to be submitted to the people. If there be any question of difference as regards this particular constitution ot Kansas, how can you so readily, in what manner can you so soon and so easily remedy the evil as by admitting the State? It there be a majority of ten thousand against it, that majority can control it. Take it away from here and let us get to the real business of the country. Let us take away the exciting subject of dispute and quarrel, for which this Congress has been agitated now for three months, and give it to the people of Kansas to settle. “For these reasons, sir, I shall vote for the admission of Kansas under the Lecompton constitution.” Democsatic Convention at Evansville.— The following resolutions were adopted by the Democratic City Convention recently held in Evansville: Resolved, That we are opposed to the establishment of any new tests of democracy, but that we recognize all as worthy ot confidence aud respect who stood by onr side upon the platform ol principles enacted at Cincinnati, in 1856, and who rallied under the democratic banner in that memorable contest. Resolved, That democrats may, and of a right do, differ upon subjects of national, State and municipal government, which necessarily arise from time to time, in the administration of our political affairs; that such differences of opinions ah 'U.d be tolerated and not permitted to distract and divide the rank and file when called tu contend against the common enemy. Resolved, That we still cling to our ancient motto—“Union, concession, harmony; everything for the cause, nothing for men.” O* The Pittsfield Sun says : Mr. Henry T. Hicock, who resides in the west part of this town, on Monday took from a well on his premises, which he was cleaning ou account of the bad taste of the water, four hundred and eighty-two dead frogs !
