next, we cannot, for a moment doubt.—

la addition to the significant historical fact, that the people of the United Slates have never yet elected twowiii^ Presidents in succession, and that the State elections, within the last twelvemonth, have gone, with the roo.t singular unanimity, for the democrats, our hopes of success in the ensuing National struggle, are farther encouraged by the ^flection that the Democracy of the Union, although UiflVtring as to the merits and availability of individual candidates, are firmly united, North and South, almost to a man, in their determination to support hc nominee of the Baltimore Convention. |i ii a cardinal doctrine of the Democratic faith to always hold principles paramount to men, and at liit present uutical period, in the history of our country, when soundness of principle is essential to its unity, ns well as to what is far more important, the ftuppresaion of sectional strife, and the stability of the I'niaft, this maxim is more strictly adhered to than

ever.

Thus,

in support of the main principle

on which we are at i**ue with our opponents, the choice ol a man becomes of secondary importance to the Democracy, and more especially so, as cach of \hn distinguished statesmen who have been spoken of in connection with the Presidency, are known to be firm opponents of sectionalism of evcrv hue. While tit'* question of a nomination is before the poople, the merits ol men will be freely, nrul perhaps warmly discussed and it is right that il should be »(», the candidates who seek the confi

and »u|-|Hit of the Democratic party, should possess churaon that will hear tho test of the strictest scrutiny. Hut Ihii question, onoe decidetl according to established usage, the nomination olico made, nil minor and personal considerations Hill be oast aside, OMI principles, founded in truth, patriotism atid experience will become lite watchword, and the Democracy of the entire I nion, will rally, in a solid phalanx, to secure the triumph of those principles. flow is it with our opponents'! Widely different, is the present c.onditiou of thiugs with our Whig opponent!*. We see their party split up into sectional fragments, nn longer a national party. hut an aggregate of factions, whose discordant elements, oven the dazzling effulgence of military chieftainship are powerless to unite. This nearly totat disorganisation of the whig party, was plainly exhibited, in the recent Congressional caucus, at Washington, Many of the Southern members absolutely refused to go into it at all, knowing befirehand, what course would be pursued, and those who were

prevailed upon to attend, alter

vainly endeavoring to obtain a declaration of the principles upon which the party was expected to come together, withdrew, almost in a body, and left of the Southern States, only a small portion of North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee represented. so that, in reality, it was nothing but a Northern caucus. Hut those who remained and those who withdrew, positively declared that they would support no one, uuless pledged to the support of the 'COMPROMISE.* V\ ill Uon. SCOTT, the favorite oandidate ol tiie Northern whig party give this pledge I \V« think not, especially as he ta completely in Unhands of such men as Seward, Greely, vVc.. men who are arrayed in open hostility to the Fugitive Slave law, and *eatou» in the cause of h* repeal That Scott will be the whig Presi (iebiiel candid ate, iu spite of every effort to the oontrary, we consider a foregone conclusion.-— •Availability,' real or imaginary, always carries the day, where principles are not regarded. ^uch being the position of the two parties, as we now behold them, whet doubt can there be that a brilliant victory awaits.

Madame Abtamowiex.

By the card in another place, it will be observed that this deservedly popular Artiste, will give one of her charming concerts in this plaoe, on Thursday evening of next week, full particulars of which will hereafter be made known.

We congratulate our readers upon the opportunity now offered them of hearing in Terre-Haute, a SONGSTRESS of the first class, whose concerts in the principal cities of the United States, (at prices greatly above the rates of Thursday evening, next,) have always been crowded, and attended with reapplause.

MADAME ADLAMOWICZ is a great favorite with the tnusic-loving public wherever she has appeared, and the public press, all over the country, have almost spoiled her with compliments, as witness the following from the N. Orleans Delta:

MADAME ASI.A*OWICT.'S CONCERT.—AfWr all the triumphs of operatic marie, thow nothing that stirs the fwlluw like an old ballad.

The opera pieces were sung with exquiste taste.

We hope Madame A. will have a large auditory, for none of her celebrity hate heretofore visited Tor re-Haute—we expect none such hereafter. The earliest present on the occasion, will have choice of the most eligible seats. Remember this, and go early. __________

3 It is amusing to witness the great

effort that is

being made by the Whig Press lo creates prejudice air ong the people in regard to the election of Judges, by the cry that they do aoi went a party judiciary. Are they sincere in their professions? Is there a whig editor in the Slate who has even intimated that be would support either of the democratic nominees for Supreme Judge! Not ono. Then why do they preach up no party io the election of judges. And why did their Convention of the 26th of February nominate strong party men for that office! We have said strong party men and know that such is the fact* We are acquainted personally and by reputation with them all, and we here ssy to any democrat who thinks of voting for either, that when he does so, he casts his vote, and thereby assists in elevating to office, one of the bitterest enemies to him, and the democratic party, that there is in Indiana. *We say to the democrats then, let the croaking of whig editors pass for what it is worth—it is their business to do it, they get paid for it. Heed them not, but quietly pursue the even tenor of your way until the election day arrives, and then, march to the polls, clothed in the msjesty of freemen and vote the entire democtalic ticket.

The democratic press, with one exception, is enthusiastic in support of our ticket for Supreme Judges, which is proof sufficient that they are good and true men, and every way qualified to discharge the duties incident to the station. We do not claim for them superiority ovtr the whig candidates, but thst they are their equals, no one unbiassed by prejudice will attempt to controvert or deny.

The North Western Gazette, recently commenced at Bloomington, lnd., and edited by JAMES HDGBBS, forms the above exception. We are pained to witness the course that he has in his wisdom seen fit to pursue, and much more so the resulu, which will inevitably follow, to himself. He is a relative of ours, and one much admired on account of his ability, talents and acquirements, and consequently it affords us no pleasure in alluding to this matter. It is lobe hoped that he will stop and reflect before he carries this thing any further.— His articles in relation to the election of Supreme Judges are all copied in the whig papers throughout the State, thus affording them the material upon which to attempt to break down the Democratic Ticket, or a portion of it. Ho has their laudations now, but after the election is over, they will turn to him the cold shoulder. It is infinitely better to so shape our course through life, that we may receive the approbation of our friends, than the hypocritical praise of our enemies—the one is true and firm as the everlasting hills, the other as evanescent as the morning devv. We have made the above remarks because we thought it our duty to do so, owing to the position we occupy, and trust that he will take no exceptions to them. They were prompted by the kindness we feel for him, and as uch, wc hopo they will be received and appreciated.

The Slate Free Soil Convention has been in session this week in Indianapolis, GEO. W. JULIAN, ANDREW L. ROBINSON, JUDGE STEVENS, and olhcr distinguised Free Soilers were in attendance.

Delegates were appointed to attend the National Convention to be held at Cleveland on the first Wednesday in August. Of the delegates chosen, we heard mention their names of A. L. Robinson, S. C. Stevens, J. P. Mulliken, J. II. Cravens, S. S. Harding, Geo. W. Julian. M. R. Hull. Ovid Butler, John B. Semans. H. L. Ellsworth, E. B. Crocker, and several lesser lights,

Resolutions were adopted in opposition to the Fugitive Slave Law, and the 13th article of the Stale Constitution favoring the freedom of the public lands declaring that the Anti-Slavery party is not a sectional party, but for the Uuion and asserting that the democratic and whig parties, had outlived the measures thst brought them, into existence, and that were mere factions..

The following nominations were made For Governor—A. L. Robinson, of Vanderburgh co.

Lt. Governor.—E. B. Crocker, St. Joseph co. Electors Slate at large.—S. C. Stephens,—Geo. W. Julian.

District Electors.—First District. JofrtfeS C. Veach Second, Third, John G. Cravens Fourth, Stephen S. Harding Fifth, Matthew R. Hull Sixth, Ovid Butler Seventh, A. Crane Eighth, Samuel A. Huff Ninth, John Demoting Tenth, Geo. W. Weeks Eleventh, David W.Jones.

The Georgia Lands

Our indefatigable neighbor of tho Wabash Express has along article in his last paper about what he terms the Georgia Land Swindle. We have heard of individuals who have gone raving distracted crazy, because they had got an idea so deep in their craniums, especially when it was not very capacious, that there was not room enough for another.

We very much fear that this is case with our neighbor, and that we will soon be called upon, with sorrow and anguish, to witness his departure for the Lutiatic Asylum. But believing that he can relieve his mind by taking the proper steps in order to a full investigation of this whole transaction from the beginning, we would respectfully refer him to Gen. Milton Stapp of Madison, who no doubt, can relate some instructing historical facts in regard to those same Georgia Lands.

We have long supposed the Louisville Courier to be without a rival as an infamous, lying and mendacious sheet, but iteeems to be eclipsed either by the Evansville Journal or the Wabash Express—wc cannot tell certainly which. In the last number of the latter paper we find the lollowing: •The Louisville Courier charges that a fugitive slave from Kentucky, recently escaped at New Albany. in a buggy belonging to A. P. Willard! NV hope Willard did not lend or send his buggy to the culled gem man' for such a purpose.' 'We fiud this statemont in the Evansville Journal.'

Although the Courier told a most infamous lie on Mr. Willard, it did not tell this lie. It lies between the Evansville Journal and the Wabash Express. Whether tho Journal told the lie, or whether the Express told il, and, being ashamed of it, tried to put it off on the Journal, we cannot say.— They can settle it themselves. We think it quite probable that both these worthies will some day be very thankful for the use of a buggy to carry them beyond the borders of Indiana—fugitives from justice.—N. A. Ledger, ______

LET OFF THROUGH A ••LETTER."—A man was arraigned before the Municipal Court in Boston on Tuesday on a charge of having forged a note lor some thirty dollars. His counsel moved that the indictment be nolle prosed, on the ground thaly on it copied the forged note as reading *1 promise to pay,' dec., whereas the original forged paper was written, «1 promis'/' &o. The court sustained the objection to the indictment, and the prisoner was discbsrged.

The Hon. Daniel Wehater, while riding from his residence in Marshfield to Plymouth, on the 8th inst., was thrown from his carriage, striking hie head and right shoulder. He was stunned, and for a few minutes insensible, during which he *ai carried into a house near by, and medical aid promptly procured. His injuries, though severe, were pronounced not dangerous.

IMMIGRATION TO CALIFORNIA.—The rush of im migrants to California continues unabated, and every avenue of travel towarda the Pacific contin ues crowded with those who are impatiently ma king their way thither. The eteamship Northern Light, which sailed from New York for Nicaragua recently, took out the unexampled number of nine hundred and fifty passengers, all bound for Califor nia, and the Crescent City, which sailed on the same day for A»pinwall, also took out three hun dred and sixty passengers, making a total in one day of thirteen hundred and ten passengers.

TFFLFC McDoKorcH ESTATE.—The New Orleans Delta states that the McDonough estate is rapidly melting away in the litigation. The executors and attorneys have already disposed of nearly 100,000 and a large portion of the personal and real estate of the deceased is advertised to be sold to meet the current expenses*. ,,

Gov. Wright and the Whigs.

Defrees talks about what he could prove if he had a commission to take depositions. We will introduce some evidence. We will first call to the stand Schuyler Colfax, Esq., editor of the South Bend Register, and late Whig candidate, for Congress in the ninth District.

Question.—What have you said in favor of Gov. Wright Mr. Colfax? Atuwer.—I published in my paper the following, which is my real sentiment in relation to Gov. Wright. "If use are not deceived Gov. Wright has from the first day of his incumbency, eudeavored to act as an honest, impartial Governor of the State. He has performed his duty to all parties fearlessly."

We will now call to the stand Judge Stilt, late editor of the Centreville Whig: Question.—Judge what have you written in favor of Gov. Wright? —The following is from the Centreville Whig, of which I am the editor: "So far as our Slate policy is concerned, there is no difference between TFAigs and Democrats, and as Gov. Wright has (aken the first efficient steps for the developementand encouragement of the ag~ ricultural resources of Indiana-, we again say that tee hope he will be continued in the Executive chair."

The court here suggostod that ihe case waa clearly made out. ana lhat further testimony was unnecessary.—Slate Sentinel.

In a bit of a row on the North Side a night or two ago, one of tho watchmen found the crowd too much for him, and what with fists, clubs and henvy bocts, received a pretty severe handling. This perhaps he might have withstood had not the fair sex come to the rescue armed with—tea kettles, and with one fell whirl laid low tho guardian of the night. From the evidence given, no weapon can be more formidable than a tea-keitle, except a tca-kellle filled with hot water.—Chicago Journal.

RECIPROCITY.—The Boston Congregationalism and the Trumpet, have made an arrangemont for for each paper to keep before tho people, in standing columns, a collection of Scripture texts selected' by the other. So that the Trumpet publishes avery week a list of lexts against Universalistisin, selected by the Congregationalist, and the Congregationalists publishes every week a list of texts selected by the Trumpet. And each is pleged to continue this arrangement as long as the other will.
