This, not of Igo .also provides for removing negroes found on board such captured slave' vesiels be yond the limits of the Unitedlitates, and:centem4 _plates their transportation to Africa Singularly enough, this is the first instance in the history of our country in which,a vessel has been ',alight in the sot of slave-trading by our national vessels, and the parties engaged in it, together with the negroes, are all taken to the metropolis of South Carolina, shortly after a movement has been made by some of her leading men in favor of a revival of that trade, after an unbroken acquiescence in its prohibition bad been maintained by the whole country for years. The inen,eugeged; in the traf fic are to be tried by a South' Qarolins jury, and the law' demands - their punishment, by death, for an act which leading Smith Carolina politicians declare should be exempt from nil penalties. Con; siderable feeling and' excitement already exist 2npon' the subjoin, more particularly, perhaps, with regard to the disposallof the Africans, than the fate of the ,orew. The whole case is somewhat of a Southern parallel for, the demonstrations some times =dein your northern cities, when fugitive slaves ere arrested for rendition to their 'Masters. I trust, however, that popular feeling will not be allowed to interfere with the faithful mention of the law. ."' , The President is taking a vary deep interest in the election in Pennsylvania. The renomination of a number of his storm* Congressional supper,. tore having been secured, be Is very anxious they 'should be cleated, His old friend, Col. Florence, stands very high in his affootions, and may rely upon the unwavering support of the navy-yard influence, as well as of all other departinents of the National Government in your city.' Govern ment employees are to be . taught that there are not only , Leoompton and Douglas tests, but also Florence, and Phillips,— and Landy. tests ; and: woe to the poor wights who cannot come up to the full length of all the modern mea surements of :Democracy! ,In ,Lancester coun ty, the dissatisfaition of the Opposition with Mr., Stevens' nomination . bas' created a bepe that a respectable endorsement' Might be obtained there for a Democratic nominee for Congress; and to se cure this, Ibave heard that Mr.' Buchanan has written to his confidential friends in Lancaster that he was willing to dispense with an endorse ment of his Kansas policy by them, and even to consent to the nomination of an avowed anti-Le compten Democrat In opposition to Stevens. This augurs well; and may we not hope that the Ad ministration will grow as lenient and politic in other sections of your State, and in the Union ge nerally, as, if ray information be correct, Mr. -Buchanan has shown himself to be toward the people of Lancaster county? If that kiad of a programme will answer, there, why cannot the Danites be celled off from their war in Illinois? why cannot the persecution of Hickman, in Ches ter county be stopped, and the honest Demodraey of the *hole North be freed froni the ban which has been , placed' upon them as the penalty for an hones t adherenee to the pledges and principles -of 1856 ? To:day has been signalized by the removal of Mr. Davidson, U. S. Marshal of Illinois, and the "appointment of Charles N. Pine in his plane. The former gentleman has been guilty of the high orime of adhering to the regular Demooratio or ganisation in Illinois, and being a friend of Sena tor Douglas. The new appointee was formerly of Camden, N. J., where he was a rabid Amerlean; and where he published a paper advocating 'the doctrines of that party within the past few years. His residents. in Illinois has boon brief, but he has distinguished himself latterly by publishing a roe aompton, anti-Dingle-8 paper, and it, would not 'do to allow snob a potrietin enterprise to go long unrewarded. , Occasional,. Harvest Hanle at Bethlehem. On Wedtieaday, amid all the excitement of the Cable Celebration, there was received at this'offlea a polite and friendly invitation from Bethlehem to attend the Harvest Home Festival Ball, to be held at the Eagle Hotel, last night.

Those " harvest-home" Celebrations rare charm ing and genial institutions. They hive descended to the present time from remote antiquity; and they are perpetuated, in one shape or another, in filmed every part-of the world. In the wine countries, the great holiday of the year is the Vintage." In the .corn-producing countries, the conoluaion of the harvest is celebrated with genial ani innocent jollity and, mirth. We dare say that our Bethlehem friends, even while we write, are making the moat of the holiday they have thus elected to make. -- NATIONAL THEATRlft—Thera was quite a house full here, last night, to Witness two very intone* mole-drimati—" Claspardo the Gondolier" and "The Terror of the Road."

Mr. Charles Fos ter, Mr. Maginley, and Mr. Barrett particularly impressed us as playing well. There is a very pretty Miss Pike, with almond:shaped eyes, (such as figure in Annuals' engravings,)• who would be prettier still, if, when not speaking, she had not a habit of distorting her under-lip by biting it. The Sherif%UV. Me. EDITOR: You have truly and wisely said, that the " Democratic party is by no means calla ffedwlth Mr, Berrell's nomination." You further veryjcstly remark, that " it is by no means certain that he Was the choice of the Con vontion." , And you also truly state, in reference to the se lected nominee of the opposition party for the Sher gait), of our city, "that the thousands of Demo crats who feel outraged" by the selection of Der rell "do not see that they would be at all bone fitted, or the public interests particularly od.. vanced, by the election of Mr. Kern." The office of Sheriff of Philadelphia should be Ailed by a citizen of high character and acknowl edged intelligence, and not by a brawling, ignorant pot-house politician. We go for the fitness of men and things. With the immense fees accruing to the office of Sheriff of this great city, the position should command the time, talents, and services of a citizen, who is beyond reproach or impeach ment, and that suoh men can be obtained beyond the pole of noisy alehouse polities and ballot-box stuffing, we have not the remotest doubt. Time was, when gentlemen of character, Intelli gence, and integrity were seleotod for the Sheriff ally of our city ; but within the past few years, men of little character and loss intelligence have, to the great reproach of our people, been unwisely elevated to the position. The period has now ar rived to correot this ovil, and we therefore trust that the independent voters of our city will, at the coming eleotion, withhold their 'suffrages from candidates notoriously incompetent and unworthy., - PHILADELPHIA..

Burning of the , Quarantine Buildings by a -Mob. - AN INCENDIARY lIANDDILL—ADOZEN Buit,DINGI3 DEByRoYED—ONE MAN KILLED AND A.NOTUER WoUNDRD. [From the New York Poet of last event ng.) An organised Mob of twonty-five or thirty per. eons assembled at Quarantine last night, and in pursuance of the recommendation of the Oastieton Board of Health, proceeded to " abate" the nui sance of Quarantine by burning the buildings to the ground. Eight sheds, 200 by 25 feet long, the large small-pox hospital. 30 by 35 feet. the Bt. Nicholas, 160 by 60 feet, and three stories high, Dr. Thomp• _eon's residence. a handsome three•etory hones, and a large number of oat•houees, sheds, &0., were burned. , In faiit, — onli one large building remains standing. The plan has been a long time maturing, and wax expected to have been carried out bionday night, after a boat race, but for some reason the race was postponed. One man. named Ilegemen, a stevedore, was shot in the bank, probably fatally ; and another, a man belonging in Onstleton, was wounded in the hand and in the groin, It is stated that an attempt will be made to. night to burn the remaining buildings, but the presence of the police will probably prevent it. No Once had arrived on the spot at noon to-day, although they were sent for last night • ' The fire companies turned out, but their hose were out, and they manifested no disposition. to Work. . Two or three man were arrested during the night, but the mob wont to tho jail and reamed them. ME. RAY TOMPKINS' STATEMENT Mr. Bay Tompkins, who is the Obief of the Fire Police, and supposed to be a very influential man on the island, made to our roporter the fol lowing statement: I, wee present at the. fire, was up all night, and am tired all over. My brain is tired. I had a great deal to do besides working at the fire ; I bad to save Dr. Bissell and Dr. Walser, and to tell the truth, I had a very hard time to save Dr Walser. I think these buildings caught fire about nine o'olook. As to tho origin of the fire, I don't know anything, but unquestionably they were set on tire. They were set on fire in consequence of the fol lowing handbill issued yesterday by the Board of Health of the town of Castleton, and which wee extensively posted yesterday, one of them-having been placed on the wall in the very spot which was first broken through : .Extract from the. Minutes of the _Board of Health of the town of Onstleton ' Richmond county Resolved. That the whole Quarantine establishment, located ea it is in the midst of a dense population, has become a pest sad a nuisance of the most odious Oa. ranter, bringing death and desolation to the very doors of the people et the towns of Castieton and Southfield. Resolved, That it is a nuisance too intolerable to be borne by the citizens of these towns any longer. Resolvedi That this board recommend the citizens of this county to prouietthemselven by abstltg this abomi nable nuisance without delay. It.OXIIISTOPISR, Chairman. A. W. 804013, Secretary. Eept. let, , 158 One of the shanties was first fired; they were built some years ago for ship•fever patients; when it was set, there were from twenty-five to forty per sons inside; the whole thing was done by not more than twenty men. . • The second building was not fired until the first wag entirely rammed; the second was the small pox hospital, known as the Bt. Nicholas, the walls of which aro still standing. I went inside when the fire began, and offered to help, but Dr. Bissell said, "Go away, we don't want your help at all."
