Not a solitary petition tMioouie from the people akii)g lur the passag tof the bill, The truth la that it i a onotrivanoe of Wm. D. Morgan. He atartrd It in order to amuse the publio with bla wonderful financial ahllitlei, and to afford him a chance- to descant on the Bresllo defalcation.

That bill baa got pilh lu it. It will prove tbe greatest ol bleainga to tho State an ' to the people, end will Inaugurate a new and wise Btate policy. Wo hope it will be pturd at once, Ai regarda the eoii'racta and contractors, we have little new to sty. We gave our views at length oo thoee matter luat year. We have nothing to add thereto, and nothing to take there from. We were opposed to the Btate declaring tbe contrarta null ami Told, without first baring the facta trlrd by tbe Court, end we were op poaed to too State taking the contracts from the persons who held the-o before tbe Coarta had adjudicated them. We believed then, end we believe now, that the bill of Mr, Cadw 11 wee the proper bill to have paatvd. It wae eafe for tbe btate : It was fair to the oootraetora. That bill waa defeated, end another was passed taking the coalmen from those who held them uutil the Courii should decide whether they were legal aud binding. The oatea have been tried In one Court, and tbe deoltfoo of that Court was favorable to tho conlraotora. . Tbe cutset U a ain before the Legislature. There are two bills, one wbloh baa passed the Senate and which Is strong against tbe contractors, and the other Is tbe one Introduced late tbe House by tlr. Fine (rook, which, if we andrnUod it, is substantially the bill wbloh Mr. Cadwell Introduced lent year, and whloh failed la the House by a itnall vole. We do not Intend to take sldui oue way or tbe other In the matter. Tbe majority have the reaponilbillly and they must bear it. Every Democrat In the Legislature, wita one or two exceptions, supported Mr, Cad well's bill lajt year. Let us see what they will do row. UoN.

Wait u DbmooraotT This Is tbe title of a long article In tbe Stattmtn of this awning. When Orestes A. Brownsna edited the Btma-tntie Htvino, he said "democracy was tbe su premacy of man over his accidents," Tbe StuUimm'$ definition Is oot qnlte so teemed or so transcendental as tbat of the fiti writer. The Stateiman says tbat democracy means that Congressmen, whatever their notions ot right may be, must role aa tbe majority dictate. Now this may be demooraoy, but it Is not constitutional republicanism, end this government we regard as a Constitutional Republic, and not a fierce demooraoy, a was Athens, or tbe colonies of Plymouth and of Massachusetts Bay. They were not Representative Governments. The people deolded what should be lew by assembling together, end voting In "open town meeting," and who should execute It. Now tbe government of this country Is controlled by tbe Conciliation, which fixes tbe duties of Its offl oer, and prescribes their terms of office. If the President, or a member of Congress, or a Senator, were bound to ebey, or reel go bis place, whenever Instructed to do w by e vote of tbe people, It would not only take from the person holding the office all independence of thought, but It would abrogate ell laws fixing the terms of office. For instance, If a vote were to be taken to day In the United States, James Buchaoan would find a large majority against him. So In this State, If Pugb were to resign, and tbe matter of his election be left with tbe people, he would not be returned. Were an election to take place in Ohio now, Governor Chase would be elected by twenty thousand majority, aod we ahould eleot a Republican majority of the Legislature, for in their party measures now under consideration in the House aod Senate, they do not reflect tbe eentimenta of a majority of the people of Ohio. There has not been a day sloce Mr. Pugb held bis seat lo tbe United Hiatus Seoate tbat be haa repre sented tbe wishes of e mtjorlty of tbe people of Ohio; and yet the Siatnman baa not called upon him to resign. N Itber bas It called upon Mr, Bucbanan to resign, and It irobably won't But we shall be asked, "doo't you believe that a majority should ruleT" We answer, roost cer tainly we do. But the will of tbe majority shonld be expressed In accordance with the law and the constitution. For lostanoe, were we eleoied to Congress by the people of a district, we should go there and endeavor to the best ef our powers to carry out tbetr will, and do our best for their good; but If a majority of tbe d strict, before the expiration of our term, should Instruct us to vote for the admission o1 Kansas Into tbe Union under tbe Leoompton constitution, we should out do It, nor should we resign; we should stand our ground and vote aa our ooosoiecoe and our oath of duty denanded us to vote. We would not stultify ourselves by voting sgalost our convictions of duty i.d of right Nor would we play the sneak ani resign. We wonld take the responsibility of our vote, end If in tbe end tbe people did not like our vote, they should have free cboioe to eleot some one else to our place, who would serve them better. If defeated, we should at least retain our manhood, our self respect, end our principles. r Pbebidiitial Bbibsht. Great excitement was caused by the motion made by Mr. Board to Gongreas) on Friday last, to appoint e committee to Investigate into the ohsrgee made by tbe correspondent of tbe Tribnn, that Mr. Burns of this State bad been liiduced to vote with theLecomptoolteaon tbe promise from the Administration tbat bli son to law should be appointed Poet master of Keokuk, for which be bas been an applicant, and Burns an Incessant borer. Alto tbat Burne should be appointed Marshal of the Northern district of Ohio oo tbe expiration of bis term. The motion was tabled by a Tote ot yeas 108, nays 68. Tbe Democrats generally voted yea, end the Republicans voted nay. During tbe debate Burni "prononnoed the charges false, aod the writer the biggest liar from here to Oregon." The Trikmt'a oor-P'spondoot says: "Tha Administration gain no thing by laying the resolution on tbe table. They shrink from a damaging investigation, but the publio will Inquire, and the affair will oot be dropped In Congress. Tbe evidence against Mr. Burns Is said to be very etroog." " Now, some members are asked t trample upon tbat principle fpopulsr sovereieotvl against tbe oonviotlons and desires of nearly tbe whole of their constituents. They are requested to vote tbemselvee unfit to bn in Congress et all; aud to declare officially, tbat they are Inoapable ol legislating, exoept and- r tutel age and supervision ol e branch of tbe govern ment, whlob has no right to intervene between them and their constituents at all. It was well fi-r Mr. Toombs to disclaim again at a standing army; It wuld have been better, If be bad oontluued, and demonstrated the danger of a atandiog army ol placemen aod pensioners, subsidised for the express purpose ot defeating tbe will of tbe people, and overthrow tbe platform ereoted by the National Democracy, or i bee are a aaogerous io uemocracy as bayo nets; nay, more eo, lo this Confederation, wbete tbe oonaolidatloo ot power lo the Federal Government menaces the rights of the States and the liberties ol tbe people." Thus speaka the SMamm, And yet the Dem ocrats In tbe Legislature, seeing tbe Intention of Buchanan's administration, with He ' stand ing army of placemen and pensioners, subsidised for tbe eipre-s purpose of defeating the will of tbe people," resolve tbat tbey "still" have confidence io Buchanan, aud bold still" while the fetters are forging to establish despotism lo Kboihb. Not only so; but wbeo an Investigation Is aked, (or the purposed ferret ing out tbe truth la regard to the bribery of tbe people's representatives, the Democratic ma jority lo Ooogress vote down the reeolotloo of Inquiry, and stifls Investigation! Such is mod-era Democracy. The School Commissioner's Report. Tbe first annual report of School Commie sloner Smyth wae received this day. We will endeavor to give an abetract of this doeumeot sooo. It has been preparod with eare, aod a vast amount of labor; and It abouoda lo sug gestloos and statistics of blgb value. Wo notion tbat Mr. Smyth entertaloa a'difisr- snt oplnloa ot "nni paper, maoufactared rags end lampblack," from that held by some members of Con grata, Oa page 29 he aaya: "Kvery leaoher ahould read at leat one good newspaper; otherwise be will live lo Iffuornce of daaly occurring facte,' it regard to which his proieanuo requires IB a oe anouia oe lQiormeo.

Tbe reoeot fight In the Uuues causes tbe peo ple to be euxlum to know more of tbe chiff personages engaged io It. Mr. Grow is a man of medium B'se, compactly built, and as true ae sUel to tbe oaues of Freedom. The Boston Bft gives the subjoined sketch ol his antecedents : Mr. Grow waa born In Wind bam oounty, Connecticut. Hii parente emigrated to north ero Pennsylvania wbeu be wae yet acb-ld.

An elder brother aided tbe subject ol tbia sketch iu obtaining ao education, and be we graduated at Amherst College, Muss, a', the age ol tweoty-ouH, In the year 1844. In the foil of i860 he was first elected to Congress, by singular accident in polltica.

Eiirht days before tbe election, both agreed to resiun if Mr Grow w. uid bn ti,n candidate.

The telegraphic announcement in tbe State $- man this moroiug that Mr. Miller ha been re moved from the office of postmaster of Columbus, and Col.

Mr, MilUr ha been tut many years the most active aud influential member ot the locoloco party in tbe county, aud bas probably dooe aa muob to keep the party together, and to give it li.orease, as any oue in Ihe Btttte, He was appuinted to tbe pott masteri-blp by James Buchanao, aud alter eojoytng tbe place for a few months, haa been removed from It by the same di stlii Kuinhed person.
