Monday in April, 18'. la Democracy is oar Müh. To be a Democrat is to be more than to say be- ... . . . . c Uag to the Democratic party. It is a laot, wnicn no one, Whig or Democrat, will dispute, that there are in . it.:. f.i. tn itroat Uariinir oolitical Darties. It is a fact, too. that the principles of the? parties, thair inundation and essence, are opposed and antagonist" to each other. Whiggery will admit that its pnnei des o:ffer from the principles of the Democratic party. And bow then it comes to be inquired, and let every thinking man inquire, what is Democracy, to which Whiggery is an enemy' Memory will serve many, and history to answer, beyond a doubt, that the principles of Demo "7 ' cr the utntdt. From the eoole. Democracy springs it J r - j- - - w i cm -a cannot come from elsewhere. In tht Utopie it lives. Without the people it dies. But it may be asked, are not the Whigs the people too If the Whigs are for tht popl, then they are; lor that, in e political sense. im the people, which is for the ptozle. Lately, the American people have hid a clear demonstration of which party is for tht people. They have seen Whiggeiy unveiled, and looked upon its face. And have they not seen that smile it has worn so sweetly heretofore wreathed into a snare? The shadow goes before the substance. Beginnings have their consummation. Rules produce their result. A rule of conduct in the life of a man will bring him to a certain end. So of a body of men of a nation the conduct, the pet ion. is an index to the ultimate consequence. And now let us inquire, what is this demonstration, this unveiling of the face of Whiggery, which show s from present movements the consummation, the end of that demonstration? It is this; and let every man see in it tohat is Democracy, and where it i. In Europe there is a nation, once independent and free, .governed by a people, and a Constitution of that people, that is now the crushed, manacled, bleediug slave of a usurping, tyrannical power. That nation (the Hungarian) has dared to lift the arm of independence, and unfurl its own banner of liberty. Power the power of the s.vord has prevailed against it, and it is now at the mercy of a despot. The voice. of the people, the ruurmer of freedom . has been stilled bv the thunder of artillerv The jewels of ennalitv. of individuality, of indepeudence, of human right-, have been robbed from their . . . . , , , owners aad ground under the heel of a foreign mmarch. A nation is to be blotted out, because it dares to whisper " man is free." It is well known (for bis name was bere as tfae champion of human equality, self-government, long before he came) that there is now iu our land one Louis Kossuth, the Governor of Hungary. His mission is a mission from man to man. Uet comes not from court and king. He come from a people to a pfple. What ia it he asksf He tells us the sad story of his country and his country's wrongs. He tells us how that his nation is to be enslaved how that ilia spark of freedom is to be smothered its light go out forever at the hoarse, grud' breath of a frowning tyrant. He asks us, Have we pity f Aud his is no idle story. We know its j . j troth. In the voice ol that nation from across the sea, j uorncs uaca, it seauis, as u tne ecnoes irom our own in fant tones, when we too cried, " help!'' And this is our own voice we hear the voice of liberty, struggling, stilted by oppression. Shalt we listen! May we sympathize? May we lift our voice and ery, " God speed Liberty !" Oh no, " as interference with tht political relation of foreign oovernmtnt$." This is Whig doctrine. Ass my brothtr' keeper'' This ia Whig doctrine. This um alt Jem ntt ration of Whig principles shows where is the true feeling the spirit of Democracy. Who is it that sympathizes? who is tt that tak s the s de of the people that says the people of a nation have a right to govern themselves? What party is it that dares have the magnanimity to utter the sentiment to the broad world, that all awa Knot th rioht upon thtir own to, I to free to govern tktnutlt Is it the Whig part) ? No. They say we have no right to open our mouth. They, therefore, sympathize with the master who forges upon his sort's the iron collar of slavery. They sympathize with the splendor of the court and the golden drapery of the monarch. Will this doctrine do for the people? We have what we should preserve. The people have here liberty end equality. Is it worth preserving? a l m. ' m -1 a - . . .... Let tham watch thea the Utile beginnings ol Whiggery. Lt them redect and see to whet end the syuioathv of whiggery with foreign courts will lead. Sha'l we form ance? of friendship with hiags te forge ohains for the people' Or shall notour voiee and our strength be to lift ap the down-trodden and oppressed of all climes? This is Democratic doctrine This is tbe doctrine that the Democratic party dare alter to the world. It may taena a small matter to talk about the tendency of this country to monarchy, but let tbe people guard well their tights ; let them watch the tendencies of tbe ooctrines of ibe two great pan.-s, let them inquire which way tee sympathy of either goae whether to kings or to people aud then let them use their pmwtr to their ewa advantage Let t inquire, are the rights of the peo- , pie safe with that party which withholds its ympathy I tor thaw, strngglieg for freedom?

principle, Democracy throughout the world. It is right, and that party is right that advocates it. U"The Democracy of New Jcraey teem to ha mar shalling their forces for the November election, indeed, the tight there has already commenced. At the municioial election held in the eity of Camden last ' Tuesday, they gava an earnest of what the future will a bring to light. The election was for Mayor and other city officers, and resulted in a complete triumph over Galphin Whiggery and Nativeism combined. The Democratic Candidates were chrnen over their Whig competitors bv a very handsome majority It is the first victory ever achieved by the Democracy sinoe the I orgauixalioa of the oity bot it will not be the last. JjTBenjamin SATTEai HWAiTB delivered a lecture in Lafayette, on last Wednesday evening, on Religion, Deiuooraey, and Spiritual Rappings.

The directors of this road, in their Ute annual report, ' state that the grading and brjdging on the whole line is nearly completed Ties have been delivered for the first division, Iran Lafayette to Lebanon, nearly equal to il wants, and the residue are in p.ivess of delivery. Ties ; have also been contracted ü)T His rcmaider 0f the mad, and are being delivered. The company have purchased from Wales 5,000 gross tons of T raif, of Waich 2,100 tons have been delivered at Lafayette, and the remaindei are on the way. It was the expectation of the company to have received some of ibeir iron during the past sumI mer. in wtnen i winch case 25 miles of track would have been , Wiw As lt happened, hut 7 miles were j ,cf.,,o operations fp suspended by the frost, but ! it i the intention of the corunanr to resume the work aarlv in the soring, and they are confident that in the month of September next the whole line will be ready for the cars. The company bey derived thejr mein frosn t'ie fallowing resources: Individual stock $234,750 7 Der cent, bonds ol" the city of Lafayette 120.000 7 per cent, company bonds (negotiated) 350,000 U Miscellaneous cash payments 4,075 Miscellaneous cash payments Total .7lli Their present available means are $166,000. The ex ... r , ... f .u. ! penditures from the organization of the company to the present time, have been 43,iy. 1 he entire cost oi the road bed and wooden superstructure wasawu, ici ov, or $2,729 11 per mile, whieh is considerably below the average cost of railroads. The company base their estimates of the business ot the road upon the character of tho couutry through which it runs, and the important connections it lorm with o(hpr rggds. Lafayette is situated on the Wabash, at the head cf stframbQtt navigation, and is the largest exporting city of domestic produce in be State. Indianapolis bids fair to become the largest inland capital in the Union, while the country lying between the two cities, and along the liae of the road is unequalled in fertility ; and is as thickly settled as the average of the Stale of New York, her cities incluJed. The Lafayotte and Indianapolis railroad, by means of the various roads diverging from the capital of the State, rill be placed in connection with tho important cities of Loiisville, Columbus, and Cincinnati. It will also connect with the railroads extending eat from the Mississippi to tho Wabash. It will open a communication at aaaa with Indianapolis and Chicago, and will become a link in the great chain extending from Iowa to tho Atlantic cities. From these connections the company expevt to derive a large through traffic, whioh together with the local traffic, will render their road a highly profitable one. RmilroaJ Journal.

The nominee is Levi L. Todd, of Perry ; township, a man on whom the Democracy cau rally all their strength.

Through much tribulation we reached this place, the capital of the good old commonwealth of Pennsylvania, this evening. Tbe road Irom Pittsburgh is badly conducted. They seldum, if ever, make the connections, and. therefore, do not oarry passengers through according to their schedule time. From Pittsburgh to Turtle creek, 12 miles, the road is completed. From thence to Beattiu's station, 23 miles, over a turnpike road, is passed in coaches. We left the station at . o'clock. The ra n was descending iu (orreflts. Th,0c wefc oyer two hundred passanger and we did not reach the railroatf until near three o'clock. Just as night set in along tho winding course of the Conemaugh, which was dashing and roaring down like a mountain torrent, in one of the defiles, covered with a thick pioe forest, we enpquuter.Hl a beaYr Und ilide wmoh had covered the road for near a quarter of a mile. This obstructed our progress, and we were compelled to wade through water, snow, mud and mire around tho impediment, to take the cars asj the opposite siJc, which had been for hours waiting for us. From this poiq( to J '..,, vn we met with no difficulty. At this place we took the Poitage railroad, by which the mountain is ascended by five inclined planes. The cars are drawn up by engines and let down on the opposite side of tho inour.i.tm by the same process. We were from ten oV-lqck aj night, unhl daylight next morning, making this portage- At ton o'clock we left the Mountain House, near Hollidaysburgh, passing through Huntington, MitHin, and several other villag.'S. We reached this place at 4 o'ulock, P. M . too late lo make the conosctioo wi;h the cars for Baltimore. We shall, therefore, instead of going through from Pittsburgh to Baltimore in twenty-six hours as they profess to carry passengers, ho more than nfty in makiug the latter point. I would advise passengers to take the old jroqte bv Cuiubci land a more safe and expeditious. The legislature is in session here, and I had the pleasure of meeting several old friends. The Democratic Convention, with much unanimity, have instructed their delegates in favor of ifr Buchanan for the Presidency Thirty-four delegate, all persona) and political friends of their favorite, have boen appointed. These delegates have no second choice, and from the beginning to the ending will vote for old Buck as Pennsylvania's last uhance for the Presidency W. J. B. Washington, Citv, March 17, IS52 I reached this place last evening. Senator Bright, who has not enjoyed good health through the winter, has re turned homa for hid family. He will be bac(c to bjs post in a few days. Got. Whitcomb has been absent for some weeks. Ho is at Brooklyn, N. Y., undergoing medical treatment. His health is very precarious Mr. Robinson is just recovering from a severe bilious attack. The rest of our Delegation are well, aid maintaining their positions with much credit. Judge Adams, the new Senator from Mississippi, and Col. Weiler, from Paliforriia, appeared to-day and took, the required oaths. But little is doing iu Congress three speeches were made in the House to-day and the suhieet of all was ibe Presidency. Mr. Annleton. of . . lie. Maine, made a very calm, deliberate and creditable effort, in which he couipiimeuted the different gentlemen of the democratio party whose names have been canvassed for the Presidency ; declaring his willingness to support any of them, and pledging the vote of Maine for the nominee of the Baltimore Convention. He was followed by Townsend, a free-soiler. from Ohio, who had the impudence to undertake to speak lor the democracy of that State. He a as corrected by his colleagues Messrs. Olds and Edgcrlon, who declared that he was not authorized to speaV for their ooastituents or the democratic party of the State. Col. Gorman finally asked him who fir had voted for in H48. This rather disconcerted the gentleman. He was compelled to admit that he had supported Yen Buren and Adanis. This admission destroyed tho eifect of his speech, and he sat down in much confusion, feeling that he had not made much by his assault on slavery and the fugitive slave law. These unprofitable discussions protract business, and are attended with no beneficial results, but I fear they will lie continued until the nominations are made Mr. Chandler, Whig, from Philadelphia, made the con eluding speech, which I did not hear. W. J. B. .Mariou Couaty Democratic Committee. At a meetiug of the members of the Marion County Democratic Committee, held in the State Seutinel Counting-room, on Saturday, March 20th, 185, on mo- " 7 ' ' lion, Lew A.

Tona of Perry township, as a candidate for Stale Senator to 011 the unexpired terra of Nicholas McCarty, resigned, and solicit a general attendance at the polls ou' the first Monday in April next. On motion, Dr. Loftin was unanimously chosen te fill the vacancy in this committee, caused by the death of i Adam Wright of Pike township. The first Saturday in August was designated as tbe day for holding the county Convention to make the reg. j ular nominations for county officers, and the several townships were requested to nd lull delegations to said Convention. L. A. HARDESTY, Chairman. J. M. Taibott, Secretary. jLTDr. Crawford, of Decatur county, intends going to Oregon, and has resigned his seal in the Senate. His successor is tobe elected on the 1st Monday in April. !T7The Whigs pretend to be veiy much elated that they have got old Nick " after Jo Wright. 0t course he is after him and will continue to be after him as well after the election as before it.

Besides, there's nobody to be offended in this case nobody worm mentioning, that is. We can bombard the Japanese towns without danger of receiving any shots in return. We can butcher her helpless natives by hundreds in her Capital, where we are to make a stand 'at all hazards," and probably shall not lose a man on eur side. ''All the hazards" of this exploit will not amount to much. But it won't do to "intervene" thus in the affairs of Russia, or Austria, or Franoe. We must not overrate our strength. We are fuliy equal to opening a Japanese port ; but it behooves us to tremble when a Frenchman cheers our flag at Marseilles, lest we should be "corapi omised" and presently annihilated There's a degree of distinction to be obseived in all these cases, especially where valor is also required 117 11 I i I. 1 ill I we snau near oi avasssaara expiou, auu ueeus oi mgn emprise, - irom our squaurou on japan, tieiore many months have relied away.

Tbc World-s Revolution.

The upheaving of the elenicu.s in the social and political fabrics ol the world, are so many indications of the restless and nil pervading spirit of change which is abroad in the earth, and before which, as chair before the wind, the time worn usages ol hearv and decrenid privilege are destined to crumble, fall away and be forgot ten. The dawomg ol demociatic light and knowledge is already streaking the distant horizon, and the nation long silting in darkness, will sooner or later hail it inendian beams with the faith and holte which ensnirits 1 CI J I -I - . . ' . to bold deeds, and great sacrifices in the cause of hn inanity However much the opposing influences may writhe and struggle, and whatever reverses mav aonear to befal the onset of freedom at the present moment, the ieaven is at ork whlch mm at no'dislanl day com pletely pervade the entire mass of mankind, that the vie tory win oe sure an j lasting, on the side of the allied Tbe example of our own countrr. and the ev. r E Inn-oc rA i ii at i -a zaai siss i t .1 .mil I : s . sympathies of our countrymen to behalf of the sti uggliag m,,lio.ns of other lands, form no unimportant peat o? the fl machinery by which oligarchy and despotism is lo be nally overthrown.

Let the conflict be waced. Thejangel of light of intelligence and liberty will put his foot npon the dragon of oppression, civil and religions arrogance, and long dominant error In these marvelous times, the heart of every friend of freedom should beat faster and higher, as he comprehends the struggles cf the resolaCa workers upon each side, and sympathizes with the kindred oppressed. And when we eonsidei the part which our country is enacting, we find that as ever, the active and potential influence emanates from that political party whose principles are those of the rights of man, aad of human progress. The reviled "Locofocos," whose name wi given them because they brought light out of darkness, are bringing about this new result just as they keep in steady blaze the conviction of our people that they are capable to rule themselves. The doctrines of democracy must be universal, because they arc suited to the happiness of the world. Whiggery dies of its own tardiness, because it is itself inimical to progression. It is in tins country only tue remains ol the spirit of monar- . - . . chy, modified to suit a free people tempered down to the standard of toleration. It is going out and w shall soon hear no more of it. Detroit Fret Prem. Loss of the Clay Medal The splendid gold meda' wbich was recently presented to the Hon. Henry Clay 1. ..

Miss Lynch and her mother, with my family, left Washington on that day to return to New York, under my protection. At ray instance and oersuasion -.a . a ea e a tne meuai, tor greater saiety, aas placed in my carpetbag, which contained my writing-case and other valuables, aad this bag was kept by me personally iu the cars and carried in my own bands at the various changes and stopping places on the route, until our arrival in New York, on Saturday, at 2 o'clock, P.M.. when it was placed on the hack which was to convey us to our residences. I saw it put on the driver's seat, by Mr Yreeland, the b2age master aad proprietor of ibe hak, by the side ol the di iver, and it was in that situation, as we believe, when the carriage left the foot of Courtlaadl-at., (Mr. Yreeland himself being present and directing). On arriving at No. 45 Ninth-st., the residence of Miss. Lynch, the bag was missing, and the driver could give no account of it. Under tbcae circumstances, it is pro - m per that 1 should communicate the facts to you, as tho rffnol lb Committee, with the expressien of my deep .. . . . , ,. . regret for the occurrence, and to request thml m perfect duplicate ol the medal may be prepared mt my cost, as soon as possible, after tbe loss is ascertained, and transmitted to the distinguished statesman.

It was of solid gold, inclosed in a massiv silver case, and cost we believe, about $2,300.

Tribune of the 16fA in$t .

II the IVorih have received nattnug, it . more their own fault than that of the Convention. With what propriety can we complain, when, instead oi having our men at lie seat of Government, making the acquaint, ance of the people from all parts ol the State, as were the aspirants from the South, they were quietly at home' JNolwithstanding the names of one or to Northen men were presented, they were not on the ground to make the acquaintances of the delegates and members, 1 It s true, Mr. Bowes, the Clerk cd the House was a candidate for Secretary of Staie, aad, though a youn gentleman, well qualified, having already been Clerk 1 w" years, was considered too young a man for that place. The name of Mr. Ellis Campbell was presented for Auditor oi State, and, tioi withstanding he was not "0 the ground, and totally unacquainted, he received a respectable vole. Was not the office of Lieut. Gevernor oucreu to a citizen norm ol the abash ' Are not two of the delegates to the National Convention for the State at large (McCoy ami Buckels) from the North? We would suuiiesi to our Democratic friends as well il I .a t aervi as editors, that if they wish nominations at the hands ot Convention they must make the acquaintances of the people north and south, and not stay at home com plaining. We think it would be muc h more profitable to our editorial friends to acquaint themselves with ibe reasons than seek to create dissensions in our ranks by finding fault. We hope those who wish to promote the entice ol the party will, in future, at least wiihhold their indiscriminate blous until onr (nends hall deserve them Tbc Whigs will have faults enough to 6nd without then, assistance. L,mm - ho recent election I Dr. NnJ, Martin, th jjelIIlKrilUc candidate, as Governor ol New Hampshire, is a victory of which eveiy patriot ought to feel proud! 11 s a victory, not over the Whigs alone., bnt over a vile and most despicable coabion between thaupany and the IL.IS.!

Tbe platform of the democracy of New Hampshire is national in all its bearings. Tbe following is one of lha resolutions passed by the Conven tion which nominated jjr Martin Rejoiced, That tbe Democratic party has always been and always will be, while worthy' ol the name, faithful to the Union as it is, and the Constitution as it is as ready to bear lhe burdens as to enjoy tbe benefits arising therefrom ; and that we hdd all men as enemies to our cause and to Republican liberty, who seek to weaken the attachment of the people to the Union or, to create disaffection to any provision of the Conslila lion. Governor Mai tin is elected by a clear majority of I,500 over both ol his opponent, while at the election last year the democratic candidate fell some 3.000 short of an elect un by the people. In addition this gratifying result, the democrats have carriod tbe Houia of Representatives by the overwhelming majority of more then fitly, and it is said they have the entire Senate I bey hftve' ma(Je , dean w-Mp fcmi ,he rMat ceariy khow, that the democracy of that noble Stale, when uni'ed, and standing aioofrom all sectional alliances, are invulnerable and unconquerable Our whig friends, who a lew months ago, seemed to entertain serious apprenen ions that New Hampshire would prove recreant to her democratic attachments, may now, e think, dismiss all theirears on that score. The Democrats having a large and controling majority in the Legislature, will elect a United States Senator in the place of Jo'-n P. Hale, divide the state into Congressional Disu.cts, Sic.
