"Wkh thn number we pressnt our read-1 crs with ottr enhrd sheet, and, in prebeoting it, are confident that wo aro oITer- , ing a larger paper, containing more reading matter, and executed in a better style, than any other ccinlry pap;r in tho State, for tho same price. As for ourslf. wo havo I.-n .1 i if been connected with the paper now a half - industriously to mnko tho Democrat " iin acccptabo visitor among our patrons, ana worthy, so far as may ba, of tho great prii ciplcs and party it represents. We bjgan our l.vbor3, a3 all hava to be gin, without experience; and if we have had j our Cmlu. our z-al should hide a multitude i of then:; in the meantime, wo trust we have learned some useful lessons, and for the future be better prepared for. tho work before us. Wo shall continue, as hitherto, to devote ourself and best energies to the interests of the Democrat," and leave no nvin3 untried to make it interesting to our various readers. Nolles? than ourself are the Publishers'

interested in making the Democrat " j highways and forever free, as well to the worthy of public favor.

with all this, they have reduced the p-icc to an unprecedented degree, hoping thereby to receive such a number of promptly paying subscribers as shall enable them to busiaiu inemseives at tr.cse raie3. It iä scarcely necessary for us to revert to the importance of a homo-paper. Its advantages have been so frequently et forth, and arc so clearly obvious to all, that no i.: t i x aT a I one of ordinary- intcllienca can fail to see 1 hem at a glance. We would not say any thin againot oar city papers, or in any way tTsdourage their patronage; but we do claim a preference for a home-paper above nil others.' It is purely a domestic institution, tho special guardian of its patrons' interests, and the type of the spirit and intelligence cf the people. If it does not con-

tain aa much reading matter as papers from i to be appropriated r.nd applied in such 'otir-groat commercial posts, it contains j manner as tho Legislature of said Stato more that is directly interesting to the m' P"ib3 for tho purpose aforesaid, , . .

With fliis idea of j the purpose of completing the public buildwhat a home-paper should be, we shall en-! in3' for thf2 erection of others at the , . . . t ... i seat of government, under the direction of deavor to make the Democrat a wel- lho L laturo thereof. Fourth. That all

como visitor at every hearthstone. VVe havo now stated briefly what we pro oso to do for our patrons, let us next inquire what our patrons propose to do for is. As publishers of a worthy county paper, ivo desir it and expsct, tlio earnest co-operation of all our citizens; but, especially, of tho friends of that party whose principles we represent. Every Democrat ought to foci a personal interest in his home org?n ought to labor for its success, as he woulJ for the success of his party, bince one is the type of the other. We are now about to enter on an important Suite campaign, and in order that DemocraU mrty show themselves worthy of the principles' thoy advocate, they ciust be early r.i the field, aud labor assiduously. The canvass will bo a highly eiciiing one, aiid all, who desire to bo kept informed of the political news and movements, generally, throughout tho State, will find the v Democrat " a faithful reporter of the samt. I i vijw. th:n, cf the inducements offered with oar cnlargemeut, which, wo repeat, are not to bo equalled by any in tho State, wo trust we 6haI receive some rcmuneralion in tho increase of our "subscription list, and tho prompt payment of those old outstanding dues, which have been so long accumulating. Then, indeed, shall wo know prcp3rou3 time3, and have a hatter Jvcart to labr for the common Tausc. , jgrVi;h lhia number of the Dsmoerat, i losc3 our connection with it as editor. The reaons of t!iis step it is not necessary to make make ptblic; but let it suffico to Bay that we parf with the patrons of the Democrat, an3 the many friends wo have formed in.this connection, with th. best of feelings. During our brief oClco we have endeavored tQ do our duty; wherein we he failed let tho fault bo attributed rajher to the head than the heart.

Mr. Gilbert comes direct from Salt Lake City. Gov. Denver was at Leavenworth, and reported things at Fort Scott in a more quiet state. ----- DEATH OF GENERAL SMITH.--The telegraph announces the death of this gallant soldier, the commander of the Utah Army, at Fort Leavenworth. His health has been feeble for some time, and the result shows that his physical powers were unequal to the task he had assumed. Persifer F. Smith, in an eminent degree, possessed the qualities of a military commander. He was brave, chivalrous, and resolute. In the Mexican campaign he was distinguished for courage and skill. In the death of General Smith, the country has lost a chivalrous soldier and a patriotic citizen.--<Sentinel>. ----- The Reported Capitulation of the Mormons. We believe that no official information has been received by the government giving confirmation to the advices, very important if true, that have been telegraphed from St. Louis. These advices come with an impress of truth, and are more circumstantial than spurious intellegence [sic] usually is. If the news prove true, it will be welcome indeed. It is hardly consistent with previous advices we had received of the vigorous measures taken by the Mormons to cut off our supply trains and harass our army in detail; but the news is so gratifying and welcome, that few are disposed to question it. If true, it will be a new proof of the value of energetic measures and a stern policy on the part of Government toward rebellion. More passivity or non-resistance on the part of the Mormons, in the presence of our army, will amount, to very little in the settlement of this Mormon trouble. The real curse of Utah is the imposter Brigham Young; and even if the news be true of his pacific overtures to the officers sent out by the Government, we doubt whether it can be regarded as a <bona fide> submission. No settlement of the Utah difficulty can be regarded as effectual or reliable which leaves this impostor in the exercise of his dominion over the religious mind of that community. We may have the semblance of peace, but there can be no peace in fact between the Federal Government and the community who acknowledge Young as their ruler and prophet. Nor can there be any security in that community for the citizens of the U. S. who profess a different belief, so long as the despotism of the Mormon church remains. Were the reported news true, therefore, we would be slow to regard it as conclusive of peace, to regard any peace as reliable which left Brigham Young the despot of Utah.--<Washington Union>. THE "RETIRED PHYSICIAN WHOSE SANDS OF LILFE HAVE NEARLY RUN OUT."--The Naiv York Leader contains a lengthy expose of this individual, from which it appears that hiä real name 13 Oliver P. Brown, a Vermont printer. Ilia mixture is composed of liquorice, a slippery-elm decoction, and honey, costing. bottle included, sixteen cents. He hires an old man named Kuper to personate Dr. James, the " retired physician. " He is is also in company with a fellow called Monnett, in the treatment of privato diseases, and is the publisher of the Magic Monitor, a paper devoted to magic and tho advertising of his nostrums. In addition, ho is the proprietor of a medicine for the cure of solitary vice, called the " Cordial of California" Laurel;" tho superintendent of a clairvoyant, under tho name of Dr. Tracy Delorme; and as Professor James T. Horn, advertises in tho country papers a recipe which will teach anybody how to make 81,000 per annum, which ho will enclose on the receipt of 85 said recipe being for tho manufacture of artificial honey. He also figures in petticoats, under the name of Madame Julia Melville, as proprietor of a cosmetic called "Tho Milk of Roses and Extract of Elder Blossoms. " - The Mayor of Jersey City certifies that thero is no such person in that place as Dr. II. James, but an old man i3 employed to personate him. The whole matter i3 said to bo well understood there. Brown is said to be woith from $50,000 to 8100,000, which he ha3 cleared within a few years by baiting the gudgeons. ' A Romance or Fourteen Lises.

When they arrived home, they were agreeably astonished to find themselves heartily forgiven by the old man,and4ffer ed them a homestead and farm of GO acres. There was common 6ensc allaround.

The OrEX Polar Sea Qcestiox. At a recent meeting of the Koyal Geographical Society in London, Dr. Rink read a paper in which ho attempted to demonstrate that Dr. Kane was entirely mistaken in relation to an open polar sea; that thero was an error of about two degrees in his reckoning, and that ho approached no nearer the Pole than several other navigators had done before him. Sir George Benk, Capt. Collinson and others took the same view of tho case. The American Association for the Advancement of Science, however, regard the subject as worthy of further investigation. At tho late session of that body. Dr. Hayes, Surgeon to Dr. Kaue's second Grinnell expedition, read a paper, in which ho announced his firm belief that thero was

an open polar sea beyond tho ice-belt that had thus far prevented actual access to the suggesteu anotner cxpenuionto test tne u ui -..i .no jMouieui . i a-ujtf;fc icicrrcu io n conimiiiee, vvno imua a report IM Ar.4iA tArk.. mltli Via.

To understand the philosophy of this phenomenon, essential to the very existence of plants and animals, a few facts derived from observation a long train of experiments, must be remembered. Were the atmosphere every

This, as you will see, is a manner

urr.tcd. Tho absorbing power of the at mosphere, and coscquently, it capability to retain humidity)is proportionally greater in warm than in cold air. The air near 'ho surface of the earth is warmer than it is in the region of the clouds. The hi" her we ascend from tho earth, the colder xrn find j tho atmosphere.

How singular, yet how simple, is such an arrangement for watering tho earth. Sei American. A CuRiors, Hoax. The London papers lately had for saveral days in succession accounts of what purported tobe a convention of Italians in that city. Distinguished names were given of those present, and speeches put into their mouths, as a manifesto ag iiust tyarnnicide and in favor of constitutional monarchy in Itally was issued, and an appeal to refugees to join in tho protest against rigiside. The Times paid eight pounds for tho report?, and noticed the convention in an elaborate leader, and all tho other dailies paid more or less for simultaneous copies of the same reports. The manifesto was duly fo warded to the French embassy and duly acknowledged, and tho movement was favorbly noiiccd in Parliament .After tho affair had gono on for a week, and tho pubiic was getting interested, it wa3 discovered that tho whole thing was a hoax, and to add to the mortification of the London publishers, it was the work of a poor Irish scribbler, driven to the necessity of earning hi3 broad by his mventivo genius. He wrote the whole thirg, speeches, manifestoes, and. all, and did them so admirdbly that nobody suspected that thoy were not genuine. Such a hoax would not be posiblo in this country, where the press relic3 on its own reporters for news. SpringCeld (Mass) Republican. . - Live Within Your Means. Next to the slavery, of intemperance, what slavery is more galling than that of poverty nnd indebtedness? The man who is every body's debtor, is every body's slave and in a much worse condition than he who serves a single master. . - For tho sake of the present time, as well as for the ßiko of the future, we would most earnestly urge upon every working man and boy to live within his means. Let him lay by something every day, if but a penny, itis better than nothing, infinitely better than running in debt a penny a day or a penny a week. If he cams a dollar, let him fairly try the experiment of living on 90 cents. He will like it. "People will laugh." Lot them laugh. "Thy will call mo stingy." Better call you stingy than to say you do not pay your debts "They will wonder why I do not j havo a better house, furniture, fec, and why I do not attend concerts and playhouses." Let them wonder for a while; it won't hurt them, and it certainly won't hurt you. By and by you can ha.e a fine house, and fine furniture of your own, and then they will wonder again, and come billing and cooing about you, like so many Dleasd lools. Try the experiment.

An Illinois Border Ruffian editor, smitten by the harms of a matron of tho village 'n which his sheet is published, addressed her u long and passionate letter, filled with rhapsodies on her beauty and his love-born helplessness. Tho lady, we suppose, with tho advice an consent of her lord, sent the missive to the rival country paper, in which it appears names, dates and all. It is understood in Iroquois county, that the editor has a country paper for sale. . MH 'O, pray let ma havo my way this time. said a young genlleman to his lady-love. Well. Willie.

Discovery of a New Plot to Assassinate tho Emperor of the French. Parin, April C It is now po.'kively certain that all those who have nny nieansofknowir.gwh.it passes behind the scene, that the ceremony of opening the Boulevard do Sfcha;topol, was put ofTon account of tho discovery of a fresh plot to ass issioate the Emperor. The details of the affair arc kept in the utmost possible mystery, and arc probably only known to the new Prefet of Police, General Espihesse, and the Emperor himself; but the mere fact of the existence of the plot is known to some hundreds of individuals, and it has even caused a modification in the ceremonial of yesterday, whereof a trace is to be found in tliij morning's Monitcur. The fficial paper alluding to the name of explanation for the presence of all the troops that were called together yesterday, In the origin, the ceremony was a purely civil and municipal one ; but when it was discovered that eo great a danger threatened, it was resolved to change the ! cliaractcr altogether, and instead of a municipal, it I became a military Jcte. Connected with this, 1 can relate a curious circumstance that has just occurred, and for which 1 cna vouch. Last week, cd upon a lady friend of aiine, with whom, and with whose husband, he has been on intimate terms of friendship for the last fourteen years. I3oth this lady and her husband are foreigners settled in Paris. The pcrsougc I speak of made the visit in question on purpose to ask thess friends of his what property they had preserved in their own country, and how far they had identified their fortunes with those of France; and the language he held was textually this "With all my osition obliges rac to know, I cannot reconcile it to mrlous itanüns frJi?Jifp tor you and yours, not to cnligh -en you upon the reality of the situation we are all cfu3, now living in France. Tne Empercr'a existence is an all but impossible one: he is so surrounded by plots that every day brings to light, so that he is now compelled to suspect tho very individuals that serve him ia the interior of the palace, that it is next to a positive miracle that he should escape. His own faith in his preservation i shaken; and from day to day, from hour to hour, anything may happen in Paris, and Paris become a p'ace where no one who is not forced to live should be desircus of prolonging his stay. All this may not occur it is possible that nothing of it at all may happen; but it is just a3 possible that it may all occur any day ; and that being the real state of affairs here, I can not reconcile it to myself not to warn you, and not to advise you to be always ready to leave this country at a moment's notice." If I could name to you the man win uttered these words, you would at once 'see that, unless they were pronounced by Loui3 Napoleon himself, they could not be so by any one mare important. 1 con fess my own impression is, not that the plots for assassination will succeed in their direct and pres cnt form, but I firmly believe they have another danger, which is every bit a3 great, and which is evident to some few of those who livo in Louis Napolean's intimacy. . The no'.ion of an incessant and horrible danger hanging over his head has so possessed the Emperor that in spite of all his resolves to the contrary, his nervous system is shakcH to the roots, and he is in that peculiar state of mind that prevents a man from seeing straight or moving stra i gh t. lie no longer enjoys Iiis liberty of action or thought , and hi3 own mistaken act3 it will be that will probably one day bring a fatal crisis on. lion Death of Senator Eans. Washington, May 7th, 1653. Judge Evans, Senator from South Carolina, while supping with his colleage, Mr. Hammond, last evening, was taken suddenly ill with disease of the heart. He was carried home and died about Jten o'clock. lie had returned from dining wita Gov. Hammond in perfect health, smoked a cigar, and retired at 10. At 1Q o'clock ho cams out o f his chamber, called his servant, and sent for Mr. McQueen, who, with Mr. Boycc, lodged at the eamo house. Mr. McQueen came and found Mr. Evans Eitting in a chair complaining of nn oppression of the heart, He requested Mr. McQueen to administer two spoonfulls of ether, which had no effect. A physician was sent for, who attempted to bleed him but did not succeed. He died in a quarter of fin hour, peacefully and almost imperceptibly. His last word were to Mrs. McQueen, who was bathing lu3 head with cologne: "You are very kind, but it will do no good." He was the oldest Senator, 74 years of age, : and was eminent for the gentleness and purity of Ida character.
