In 1812. between Spain and Russia, Napoleon lost by battle and discasfj and the fatigue and privations of war, Seven hundred thousand men, and they were almost entirely destroyed.

It makes honest Union men indignant when they read the read the resolutions of the Conventions in Louisiana and Florida which are to be passed off as expressions of re-Tired Southern loyalty. The fact of the nig-trer being allowed to sit on terms of perfect equality with the white man in these gatherings is in itself sufficient to expose their real character. They are not made up of Southern men, but of the comorants who follow in the wake of our armies, and seek by thus imposing on the administration and the country to postpone or defeat all genuine expressions of Southern feeling, and to maintain tucmselvea in the possession of their ill-gotten gains.

The New York World, in an article on The Democratic Party," with entire truth ays: What wo beg the reader particularly to remark is, that, throughout our whole political history, although the costume has frequently been changed, it has been the same identical struggle between exorbitant federal per-' tcntions on the one side and popular on tho other. To suppose that this struma has become obsolete ouly be-tokens the shallowness of the supposer. To fancy that the present is a time when the Democratic party nas no work before it, the performance of which is demanded by its principles, is to be as incapable of discerning the signs of the times as a bat is of-sceing in the day-time. If the Democratic party were annihilated today it would spring up again to-morrbw. It is in the nature of things that overgrown power will become oppressive, and that part of the community who hope to share neither power nor the plunder that is to say, the Democratic masses, will resist.

But what is the prospect now To those who are capable of looking beneath the sur meetin; of thc General Assembly, to elect its own Speaker, the-Constitution qualifies that right, and restrains it, when thc Speaker of thc Senate shall tjtcijciac the office of Governor," and provnles f(or the election of a Sneaker pro tt mrore, onu, en snch occasions. prosecutor that the defendant's Stable, which is located within about thirty feet of the house of theproScchtor, has for several years past been kept in a filthy condition, producing noisome smell and occasioning sickness in Mr. Shield's family.
