THAT RAT AFFAIR.
W applaud the candor of the Journal of Tues
day, in admitting the plausibility of our reason
ing abou the mischievous and wicked Rat, who
committed the depredations on the Herald office,
ns having sallied forth from the first named es
tablishment. We also admire the Editor's regard
for justice in the case, in permitting any person
to kill any Rat that may stray from bis establish
ment. So our neighbors on Market stre.'t may
destroy these creatures without exciting the in
dignation of lira Venerable.'1 Moreover, the
Editor very kindly permits those " at all disposed
to indulge in luxuries, to eat them, roasted, stew
ed, fried, bashed, with or without onions, as tho
case may be." s
This is kind of our neighbor, and we trust the
Herald will note and appreciate the privilegea
gran led in case of another capture; we say an
other, for it is reported down here that the Rat
lias been captured, wbo caused the grievous com
plaints of the Editor of the Herald and wbo has
given rise to the inditing these lines, and others
from our neighbors, furnishing important histor
ical data.
Since writing the above, we learn from the
Herald of yesterday, that the report about the
capture of the wicked quadruped is true. He
was captured after half an hour's struggle with
the "devils" of that office. If bis life was notori
ously wicked bis death was magnificent, like
some other heroes for it is manifest be was brave,
else he would not have fought against such odds
for a ' wholo hour, by Shrewsbury clock."
CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR.
We have uo objection to any or the candidatea
likely to nsk tbeyote of Ibo Democratic Party,
at the coming election either of them would
make a good Governor, but we prefer Holden,
because he would make, we think, the best Gov
ernor of the three.: Messrs. MacRae and Leak
may be superior to him in some points, but in
none required to sustain the respectability of the
State and the promotion of the public interest.
Mr. Holden belongs to a profession, being an
Editor, that is not so very highly -esteemed by
some classes,., owing, in a great measure, to the
very small materials out of which a large num
ber of Editcrs are made. But ho Is a Printer, at
the bead of his profession, and sutt-tins the post
r Editor with rare talent and sound judgment.
But the objection to which we al.ude is cer
tainly unsound. In tho profession of the law, for
example, are found many lawyers made of small
materials, very small indeed. And yet from that
profession have come a large number of the great
est men that ever adorned the world, and many
of them good as well as great. 'President Bu
chanan is a prominent illustration of this fact, aa
were Calhoun, Clat, Websteb, .and a host of
others though the grealeat and the best we bavo
known was not a lawyer vis : Washington.
We gball feel no excitement in regard totbo Gov
ernor's Election, so that the Democratic contest
ants do not work so aa to weaken tbo support of
the General Government, which North Carolina is
bound injustice to ber principles to give, in the
crisis that is advancing upon us. Of this crisis
we do not feel inclined to speculate. Whether
the Lecompton contest shall end in disunion or
cot, Piehcs and Buchanan have secured a titne
Ci. daring fame, for having planted themselves up
on the rampart of the Constitution, in defiance of
surrounding hostile, and committed themselves
to enjoy a glorious triumph in its vindication
or an equally glorious immolation amidst its rn

A further answer was then .received from Mr.
J, W. Walcott, a witness, in the case of allege!
corruption of members of Congress. He submit
ted a written statement, in which, after disclaim
ing any intention to contemn the authority of the
House, he says be denies the right of the com
mittee of investigation to require answers to ques
tions not within the scope of its duties, namely ;
the investigation of charges against members of
the last House in connection with the tariff bill.
He said be bad be n legally advised not to ans
wer questions criminating himself unless oppor
tunity granted him to be heard. He defended hi
position at great length. .,.
Mr. Burroughs interrupted the reading and said
he had heard enough.
Mr. Clemens askod whether the opinion which
had been read was signed by Reverdy Johnson.
Mr. Stanton offered a resolution declaring that
Mr. Walcott bad failed to answer satisfactorily
and orders him to be committed to jail by the
sergeant a t-arms, and to be kept fa close eastedy
until he is willing to answer all legal and proper
questions. - r ,..
Mr. Stanton said that the power to inquire ne
cessarily implied the power to compel witnesses
to produce al. essential evidence. The House had
the common lata right to punish witc esses for con
tempt. It was proved that $53,000 came into the
bands, of Mr. Walcott perhaps innocently. But
subsequently it might have been applied for cor-
upt purposes, and the committee have the right
of knowing what became of the money.

Da. Swiitss.- Dear Sir- Believing ita dutyl
owe to the public, and in justice to you. I have
llioushl Dioper to make known one ot the mom
ex truordinary cutes, in my own case, that has ever
rxien truly recorded. In tne month of October last
I was amicted with a severe gatherinit in niv
brenst, which formed a large abscess, and also
eomniunicutcd to my Longs and very much afflict
ed thfim, and di sen a reed lurge qiiamiues ofcorrup
tion, external and internal. M v breath could ls-
pnS3 through my Lungs and out tnroueli the civ.
ity cf my breiisi with apparent ease, attended wiih
a violent cough, day and night, loes 01 appelite,
no. exireiue ueonnv, eo mat my pnvsictana
inougni rny cave entirely nopeiessand bevond the
power of medicine. I remained in this wretched
eonditlon for a Ions- time, until 1 was w.isted to a
mere skeleton, and there seemed to be no hope Tor
me; bur having read in the public papers of the
many wonderful cures performed by your COM -POUND
SYKCPOF WILD CHKKRV, 1 im
mediately sent to linitimore tor rive bottles and
commenced its use. and to my great satisfaction
and my anxious tamilv. the abscess or ooenin? in
inv luns beitan to he;il, and tru cough subsided
and on ums ten bottles I was restored 10 perfect
health. 1 believe, that to your valuab:t medicine,
under the blessings of Divine Providence, I am
Indebted for thin great change, and 1 am huppy to
say, that lam now enjoying as good health as 1
verhave.
Over five yeirs have elapsed, and 1 still remain
a perfectly hearty man at this date, June 2d, 1656.
1 have not had a day's sickness for ihe last ly
months. Please accept my grateful acknowledg
