WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.

Senator Dorr,las at the South..We are

not a little amused at the pertinacity withwhich the " sore-beadod " newspapers io Illi¬nois and elsewhere, (.trade the pro-Douglasarticles of the New Orleans Bet and the twoor three other Southern opposition papers inhis favor, as evidence of the strength of Doug¬las and his abolition efforts in the South. Itis a notorious fact that the few Southern jour¬nals favoring him, invariably reflect any andeverything but the sentiment of the South.They are Ismaelitish papers, with their handsraised, always, against every one confidedin by the South, and for every one whom theSouth regards as its unrelenting fee. TheRichmond hnqutrrr, since it baa become them-ire mouth-piece of Uov. Wise, has steppedinto line with the few papers to which we referabove, aod now can find naught but censures,direct or indirect, for thoae the South delightsto honor, and praises only, for those repudiatedby all of the South but her few Ishmaelites inpolitics. Under such ciroumstances, it is notwonderful.Governor Wise, in last "going offhalf-cocked," having buckled bis fortunes tothose ot Douglas.that the Richmond Hvqi/irernow shares with the New Orleans Bee, the no¬torious organ of New Englandism in New Or¬leans.the honor of furnishing the capital ofbogusSouthern admiration of his course, on whichDouglas essays to trade in Illinois wheu thatdodge seems likely to serve his turn for thehour. Though the prestige of its former polit¬ical labors and position may serve to deceive a

few Northern Democrats concerning the esti¬mate in which Douglas is now held by theSouth, there, it can etiect nothing in that way,save the generation of uiore wide-spread dis¬trust of itself.What Southern sentiment with reference to

Douglas really is, is concisely stated in thefollowing brief extract from the Georgia Fed-er.il Union, thu recognized central organ ofthe Democratic party in that State, as follows,viz r" \\ e intended a short comment on the late

speech of Senator Douglas, at Chicago, hut Ufid-ing in tbe Richmond South of the 17th instantan aiticle on the same subject, which exactlyunits our view*, we tiansfer it to our column*,as expressing tuily our feelings acd senliuwntstowards thi Senator from Illinois. We willsimply add, that a* Jud^e lJougla* La« made anissue witti the Administration, distinctly ai ddefiantly, on the settlement of the Kansas ques¬tion, we nope no Democratic paper in Georgia. an 1>* found to render him "aid and comfort"In his crusade against tbe South and the South'*friend* in the free States. Judge Douglas ha«no apology to oiler for his late course.SouthernDeini-Ciats will give bim iu future, a* thty haveever given their Northern eueui es, war to theknife, and that to the bitter end "

i he Evil of the Ti.wk.s..Among the mostprolific sources ol evil connected with Americanaffair?, is the growing propensity of our nationallegislators to seek to propitiate momentarypublic opinion in all they do in the dischargeof their duties. The habit has grown into a

disease, working, as its result, incalculablemischief upon both public and private interest.-'.Buncombe asks unconstitutional and extrava¬gant appropriations; and a wish to propitiatethe good will of the meml>er s Constituents, in¬ducts him to devote most of his time to workingout the gratification of its desire. Buncomberuns mad over a moral or industrial problem;and the member forthwith pretends to run madover it also, that Buncombe may be sure to re¬

gard him as the very deity of its momentaryfaith. Buncombe.or rather the spouting andscribbling portion of Buncombe.holds thatoffice In this country is simply the means of re¬

warding cross-roads and grog-shop politiciansfor their eminent services in political affairs.for spouting and scribbling. Buncombe is pro¬verbially out at the elbows, and will soonerstarve than work at aught else than influencingpublic opinion ; so the member, if he wouldcontinue to enjoy popular lavor, ma«t forthwithadopt their view of right and wrong in thatconnection, and must also labor faithfully toimpress it on tbe policy of the Government.A quarter of a century ago it was supposed

that the patrouage of the Executive office wa*devolved by the Constitution on the President,to be dispensed by that functionary. Now. tohint to the member that be is not of right tbe3j'e arbiter ot the dispensation of office in hisdistrict.his party being in power.is to off. rtbe gravest conceivable insult to the dignity ofhis official position. In recently reading a

speech delivered by that distinguished andable public man, Senator Clay, of Alabama,r e find that he Las taken occasiou to lay downsound doctrine, indeed, with reference to thisroot of so much evil.the obsequiousness withwhich members of Congress seek to propitiatethe bastard.ill-gotten.public sentiment of thehour.saying:" I do not think It Is the bus I lie** 0f thi* Senate

or of tbe House of Representatives merely tor-fl'-ct puoiic opinion, whether riKbt or wrJna1 do not think it become* u*, a* representativesof "overeigi. States to run *fter public opinion ;but 1 think we should rather lead It; we shouldcorrect It when it Is wrong, and should only fol-

It Would be a happy consummation for thepublic interest, ifSenator Clay could inoculateall his fellow members of both houses with thispatriotic and conservative sentiment of bis.
