Fiight of Comonfort

Bince the war with the United States the Mexican Republic has tried three experiments in the way of government, .The first was that of Herreraand Arista, which lasted from the peace in 184 S te Jan. 6, 1853, when Arista, an honest man, a sincere patri‘ot and a wise Statesman, al last yielded to the fatal power of circumstances, and the greely factions that surrounded him, and went into exRe whoes Ko died, "Nicss Gl the o¥perimeont of despotism under Santa Anna, a charlatan ‘and a biaggart,‘if there ever was one, who clothed himself in regal state and titles, till heand they were suppressed by the sturdy old mountaineer, Alvarez. On August 9, 1855, Santa Anna, for the third or fourth time, abdicated and fled the country, which he had not known how to govern. Finally ‘we have seen the moderale ‘Democratic Administration of Comonfort, wha 'was put into power on December 10, 1855, and ha’g’in turn been compelled to abandon the impracticable task, and seek safcty in a foreign country.— The feclegraph informs uws that, with .his friend Garcid Conde, he arrived at New OrleansZlast evening. : L This result has long been grobib‘l"é. It is, we think, impossible to deny, on the whole, Comonfort has borne himself well in the final struggle ; but “the forces combined against him were too powerful and active to allow him much room for hope, Therevas the natural reslessness of a decaving State, in which the people are ready to believe that any change will be for. the better ; there was the ambition ofa score of rival ggnej'als, whose advancement required o revolution; and above all, thene was the enormous power’ of the. Church, which the President had defied, and at whose political preponderance he had struck an unpardonable blow in the securalization of the [Church lands. To this power and its purposes all other causes became Subservient.z Jln order to resist it Comonfort made himself Diztator, but in vain. aiieran ardent struggle, lasting now for four months, the latter halffof which has been marked 'byx-; actual civil \}i‘ar, he has at last met the fate of Mexican ruler%, and isa fx.:g‘i_tiw.—‘Tg"ibuneil

Amusing Side Show in Washington. Of all the comical “side shows” to be seen at Washington, none are more amusing to a “looker on in Venice” than the performance of office seckers from this State. Men who, while Douglas was presumed to have a potent voice in the distribution of patronage, were his “very “humble and most obedient servants”’ proud to doff their hats and bend their Suple necks to the distinguished Senator, are now deafening the Executivé with. their clamorous claims to the merit of disliking the Little Giant. -They are “orthodox in their hostility.” - They have always distrusted him—never was thére any cordiality between them-—are peculiarly disgusted with his late ‘fundamental , error.””. This hatred of the rebel 18 gohasowimr in. its intensity, immemorial snd ‘unrelenting! If necessary they ecan produce testimonials to show that they ihave never been near him since he “lost the power to serve them; certificates to prove they have always abused him roundly and patriotically, from the day he forfeited his claims to public plunder. Revolt must be put down—no better way than to set them up.. = - : : : One fellow thinks it will ruin the Douglas party certainly to send him (the fellow aforesaid) out of the country with a consulate; another knows it will crush the faction to return’ him to the “bosom of his family’as Post Master. A third thinks neither of the above are sound—“saw one with a ticket to-Mrs. Douglas’ levec in his over.coat pocket, heard him say he thought he’d go—actually Deheld, the 'Otger speaking 'witl-a man who afterwards spoke to another man who is known to speak continually with Douglas.” He alone is_inflexible in his anathemas, and his appointment to a fifteen hundred dollar clerkspip would be the political death to the Illinois Senator. In truth; the easiest way for a-Democrat: to obtain an office now is -to damn’onehalf the Democratic partj;,‘and swear “like our army in Flanders” at the Little Giant. The most whispering apology for that gentleman is instant decapitation, It takes'off the head quicker than any guillotine. The merest hint of a heresy in that direction, is sure to sever the jugular vein, and although that porous flexible old gentleman, Gen. Cass, whose spinal column - has become s 0 softened, by half a century of Irptib—lic pap, that he camnot- sit.up, even in the padded chair of State without a pillow, aud that vacillating, timorous, old boned-turnkey, the Post Master General, may occasionally let in a Douglas man eclandestinely; with old Buck himself it is “war to the knife,” and no one need expect' any favors from him who is not willing to take a Hannibal oath against the Illinois rebel.— Chicago Trabune, .~ 's~

Mr. Douglas will report against the admission until the Constitution is submitted to the eople of Kansas, while Collamer and %e’ad'e will also submiit ‘a report adverse to the admission under the Lecompton Conititation, = . .~ , /The Democrat Seénators held a cau‘cus to-day in reference to the business before Congress, at which Douglass, Broderick and Stuart were formally read out of the party. - i i It is generally conceded that the army bill now before the Senate, will pass that body by one or two majority. . The Tribune correspondent says, Gen Calhoun, sent a man to Col. Harris, on Monday, before the vote was taken, to assure him that the freestate men wo’d be counted in Kansas. Harris, suspecting gave no heed to the assurance. Last. night, Harris 'saw Calhoun, and questioned him on the subject. After much evasion, he at length declared that he had issued no certificates to the fre¢ State men, and should issue none until Kansas was admitted under the Lecompton Canstitution. Harris replied that then she would not be admitted. Hemi . The correspondent or the Courier sends a similar despatch. . i

The anti-Lecompton meeting advertised to be held in: the Academy of Music last evening, was not held, the les., sees of the building persisting ini their refusal of its use. : - A large crowd gathered in front of the building and considerable indignation was manifested. Some of the party were threatening to break in the door. = The majority, however, were peéaceably inclined. ; 7 i Mr. Stanton was called for and made a few remarks, stating that his voice would not allow him to address tiiem in the open air, but when a hall could be procured, he would be happy to give them his sentiments. - . g } A large number of persons and a band of music followed Mr. Stanton to the New York Hotel, where he was again called out and made a. few remarks. b % | .

- Railroad Accidents..: i ; Albany, Feb. 11. The New York mail train 'for the West, on the Central Road last night, was thrown off the track near Canascota, by a broken rail. Mr Brannan of New York City, was badly cut on the head but not dangerously.

~~ The Victory in the House, - . The first pitched bttle of ‘the Lecompton struggle was floaght on Monday last, and victory perches on the standard of Freedom. {l'he-House, we. believe, was fullér thah on any similar occasion in the past—there being two hnndred and twenty-¢ight members, (includii-g' the Speaker,) in their seats, and all but the Speaker voting on the decisive call of the Yeas and Nays.— The heaviest previous 'vote we can recall is that by which the Sub-Treasury bill was laid on the table by thé Congressof 1837-8-—Yeas 115; Nays 100; total ' 225—two less than now. . The Nebraska bill ;as passed by 113 Yeas to 100 Nays; total 223, or with Speaker 224—four less than on Monday,

. We calculated that, of the ninety-two Republicans and Republicanized Americans in the House, ninety would be found in golumn at the decisive charge yesterday, and |the result more than justified our expectations. Ninety-one 'said No to the proposed reference of the Lecompton Message and Constitution to Mr. A.H. Stephen’s packed Committee yesterday—9o from the Free States and Francis P. Blair, jr., from St. Louis, Mr. Matteson of this State being the only Republican absent. ,j-Mr,] A. S. Murray of this State was at home by the bedside of his dying son’ when summoned to his post; tfiat son died (at Goshen, Orange County,) on Friday last, and on Monday morning Mr, Murray, leaving his wife ill at home, ‘was in his seat at Washington, voting onievery division... . .0 The Douglas Democrats never claimed, within our knowledge, to muster more than twenty-five members in the House, which number they were sure, could not be reduced below twenty-two. They gave just that number of votes against sending Lecompton to Stephen’s Committee, though Mr. J. B. Clay and all others of whom they had hopes from the South, came up missing, though Mr. Reilly.of Pa., on whom they count‘ed, was absent, while Messrs. Burns and Miller of Ohio deserted them, at the moment Messrs. Adrian of N.J., Dewart of Penn!, and McKibben of Cal., who were subjected to all manner of trials, and the theme of innumerable dispatches, stood fire. It is hardly possible .that any of these can ‘henceforth be shaken. Mr. H. Winter Davis was the only South American, and the only member from a Slave State except Mr. Blair, who voted against Stephens and Jecompton. This is as well as we expected. i ‘ _ : 1,. We forther analyze ‘thé vote as - follows : Ll v

_ For lecomp'tc}n. Against Lecompton. Slive Statey,....B4. | Slave Statesu.....2 Free 8tate5,...729. | Free 5tate5,....112: R oo e = et Lo o lia ) T, L 1

We do not| regard this close vote as absolutely decisive of! the final result, but it must go very far toward insuring the defeat of Lecompton. Mr Speaker Orr can hardly fail to give Col. Harris a - majority on his Sclect Committee—not, indeed, pledged to oppose the Lecompton con‘{(ivance under all ¢ircumstances and at all hazards, but in favor of an honest and searching inquiry into and report upon the machinery by which that ctfimtrivance‘was - produced, and the favor or aversion with which it is regarded by the people of Kansas. This inquiry must take time, .and cannot fail to result in the presentation of startling facts in a .shape which must command general credence. Our confidence that no Constitution will berecognized by C‘ongrese as that of Kansas until that people shall have fairly and freely accepted it, is materially strengthened by Monday’s proceedings in the Heuge: .. ' | b

- The Southern Speaker. Speaker OrR has violated propriety as well as parliamentary rule in putting on_the Special QQ,QmiQtee, under Harris’ resolutions, a majority of Congressmen who votedagainst them. - The object in ordering the Committee was to secure an inguiry into. the facts.— This the Speaker im'd’eq?kes to crush out by givin’fi; the .control to those who are opposed to it, and _who can vote down all the measures necessary to the’ investigation. If the investigation requires the presence of persons at & distance, or papers not at hand, or the sending of a messenger to Kansas; the majority can preventone and all, and thus stifle all the proceedings. It may turn that this is of no political importance; but the fact “that the Speaker has so organized the Committee, shows that no man who supports the LecomptonConstitution can be trusted with the commonest responsibility without abusingit.
