The Key of the Bastille. a glass case, in the great passage of the mansion at Mount Vernon, hangs a memorable relic, placed there by "Washington himself— the. Key of tho Bastille. It was a gift from Lafayette. On July the ,14th, 1789, the, Parisians stormed and took the Bastille, and thereby may bo said to have commenced the 1 first ( French revolution. The Marquis do” Launay, i Governor of the hated fortress-prison, with ,his Lieutenant, and somo soldiers, wore killed; 'after a gallant defence « worthy of a better ! cause/i as Mr. Thackeray would say. 'Their jheads were, out off, and stuck upon pikes, paraded through the.princlpal atreeta-of Paris. prison was ordered by the National Assembly and tho stoneß of wbichit had boon builtwere /jubsequently in of the Font dc la Concorde, ttyhe command of the National Guard was given to' and, as a special compliment, the key of tho Bas tille was placed in his hands. He determined to present it to his friend, George Washington, In that agreeable and instructive volume, Benson J. Lossing’s << Mount Vernon and its Associations,” wo find a detailed account of the manner in which the Key came into Wash ington’s hands. " ' ■ From this we. learu that, in March, 1790, Lafayette sent Ufa Key, together with a small pencil drawing pf tho destruction of the Bas tille, to Thomas Paine; then in London, to bo forwarded to Washington, and that he enclosed with them alettolo Washington, dated March 17, 1790, atleftM in which occur the following sentences: « Give mo leave, my dear General, to present you with a picture of the Bastille, just as it looked a few days aftor 1 ordered its 'demolition, with the main Key oi the fortress of despotism. It is a tribute which I owe as a son to my, pdppted .father—as an ald-de camp to my General-*as- a missionary of lib erty to its patriarch;” ' L ; After some considerable delay, probably oaused by the difflcnlty of finding a safe per son to convoy them to the United States, the key and drawing were sent to Washington by Paine, who -wrote a-letter expressive of his gratification at being tho medium of trans mitting such a present, and his regret that he should be unable, from his detention in Eu rope, personally to place them in Washing ton’s hands, and adding that he had permitted no drawing,to be made of tho key orskoteb. Washington wrote to Lafayette, on Augnst 11th, 1790; acknowledging tho receipt of tho letter and gifts, which last, he described as ‘i the token, of tho vlctory gained by liberty over despotism.” The key'anfrtho drwrfog, both of which are represented in Mr. Lossing’s book, were placed by Washington’s own hands in that part of the mansion of Mount Verpon which they continue to occupy. Di rectly opposite hangs the spy-glass which Washington used throughout the Revolution. II thoro be ono tjiing whoso identity is almost mote certain than another at Mount Vernon,‘,it is the Key.of the Bastille, which reached Washington, sb directly from La fayette., Yet, in the Illustrated Loudon ffews of May 26th, we hare a long article in which the claims of another koy are set up. Among , many;'.curious. relics, this article teltiMijJ'wbi igfde and a stone bam the centre entrance of tho Bastille;” The stone is oblong, and around it, cut in capitals is tho inscription “ Cette piebbe vibkt de oacuots DE LA BASTIW.E, DOHNEE A M. JfOBEAU ST. Meet, President des Bieoteubs, 1789, par IE Patbiote Palt.ot, l’an 4e.” [This stone, coming from tho dungeons of the Bastille, was giren to M. Moreau St. Mery, President of the Electors, 1789, by the Patriot Palloy, in tho fourth year of tho Itepubllc.] Accompanying it is the original letter to M. Palloy, from Bailly, the Mayor of Paris, thank ing him tor the stone and inviting him to dln nor. On a considerable portion' of tho stone, within tho above inscription, is carved an obelisk, surmounted by a flying Fame (or a Vic tory), and near the apex of the obolisk is cut a medallion portrait. The obelisk stands upon a base, on which is cut what seems to be a plan of tin) Bastille. Underneath, in a space occupying about one-fourth of the stone, is a large Key, fastened there by iron hooks, dri ven into wood plugs, let in to hold it. : Tho tradition 1s that this is tho identical key of the principal gate ef tho Bastille. To account for there being a duplicate—it boing undeniable that tbo veritable Key of the Bastille was given to Lafayette, and sent by him to W ashington—it is asserted that there woro two koys of tho great gate of tho Bastille —one in the possession of tho KiDg of Franco him self, and the other in that of the Governor of tho prison. Tho possessors of what passes in England for tho Key, do not deny or in any way impngn the authenticity of the Key which has hung in tho entrance-hall of Washington’s houso at Mount Vernon, tor tho last seventy years, But they affirm that it was the King’s Key which fell iAto the hands of General La fayette, and that their key is that which was in custody of the Marquis de J.aunay, Governor of tho Bastille. To us it appoars moro probable that La fayette, who personally assisted in the storm ing of tho Bastille, and who was extremely popnlar and distinguished in Paris, on ac count of tho gallant services which he had ren dered to tho cause of Liberty in America, should have been presented with the Key, actually captured when the prison was taken, than that ho should have become possessed of tho duplicate (if such there wore,) held by tho King of Prance. 'f ho key, as engraved In Mr. Losaing’s book, from an accurate drawing made at Mount Ver non, bears little resemblance to the other key, of which an engraving is given in the led London News. Perhaps, the Becond key, now in England, was used in opening and lock, ing one of the smallor doors or gates of tho Bastille?—that is, it may be a key, but not the key. Lafayette’s letter to Washington deci dedly speaks of sending “ tho main key of tho fortress of despotism.'* Moreover, Lafayette sent off AL key ten months (March, 1790) alter it came into his possession, whereas M. Pal loy, “lo patrioto,” did not present tho stone until 1798, three years later, and there iB no re cord whateyerabout bis key, or its history. A Voice from Little Carbon. GUN NO.

X desire to remark here to the commit tee, that a statement was made by Mr. Bmn wobth, thpt upon my request he had paid money, towards ln 1856, and that he had paid it to me personally. That is not so. I novor re-: quested Mr. Botmbwoktb to contribute a dollar towards my eleotion, nor did he ever give me a' dollar. He gave a financial agent of mine one! hundred dollare. under peooiiar oironmeianoes. i Q. l'id yon ever have any correspondence with Mr. Browse, of the Consmuiton, Ip reference to' supporting the Leoompton policy of the President ?! A. No, sir. j Q. Did you have any correspondence with Mr. Bdtmbwobth, Superintendent of the Assay Offioe in New York, in reference tq thpt taatter 7 A, I corresponded with Mr. Bottkrworth from the' time liras elected member of Congress, in 1856 down to the 17th of April, 1858, whoul wrote him a letter closing our correspondence and terminating onr acquaintance. Q. Have you any objection to leaving that cor respondence with the committee? A. As to this letter of my own, closing our correspondence, I have no objeotion to leaving that, and having i| Incorporated, as a part of my testimony. I had not intended to have mado any use of Mr, Burras worth’s letters to me; bat having read in the New York Times, of the date of the sth of April last, a statement which was designed to ohqrge me with having at one time been in favor of the Leoompton Constitution, which statement I know was snperin: duced to be published by Mr; : Bb*ysbwobth ( and reference having beeq made in that state* ment to some of my private letters to Mr. Butter? worth, with what. purported to be a quotation from one ef my letters, I now propose, therefore, as Mr. Buttxbworth in a letter,to me oonsented to the publication of his letters, provided I would consent to the publication of my letters, to leave these letters of Mr Buttbrwortk to me with Mr. -CovoDß, the ohalrman of this committee, the let ters (o be in ftrsealed envelope, with the under standing that if Mr. Buttebworth agrees to thp publication of the whale of my letters, these shall be published also. Ido this because I desire that the onus these letters shall be put upon Hr. Butterwobth, he having, in his exami nation here, oonsented to the publication of his letters to me, provided that I wottlt eencant to the publication of my letters tohlm. oontalaed-in tfcfc at fhm .-April .lest, mure tna«ratiymn»r CohsideratlonThas induced mo to testify bofore this committee. That statement sought to oharge me with having acted at least with dnpiioity upon'tho Kansas questies. Hence it is that I am willing to leave with this committee Mr. Botthrworth’b letters to me, many, of which were written in friendly confidence, just as mine were written to him. Therd'are expres slonsqpon both sides of a very friendly oharaoter. Q. Without stating the oontents of Mr. Buttbb worth’s letters, can you state if you know what hie views were upon the Leoompton question after the 19th of December, 1857? A. After the 19th of Mr. Buttkrwobtq did not endorse the President's course upon the Leoompton question. They accorded, as I understood them, with my views fatly. And I desire here to state, as you have mentioned the 19th of December, that Mr. Butterworth has said, ael am informed, that I favored the Leoompton polioy of the President np to the 19th of Deoember, and he also said that the Leoompton message of the President bad beon transmitted to Congress before that period. Now, for the truth of history* and to vindi cate myself, I desire to state that the annual message of the Presidont of the United States was sent to Congress on the Bth of December. I ap proved of that annual message, and on the 21st of December, 1857, I wrote a letter to a meeting called at Tammany Hall, in New York, to approve of the message. There waa nothing in the annual message upon tbe subject of Kansas which I did not approve, becauso Leoompton had not.then been made an issue. The first election in Kansas topk place on tbe 21st of December, 1857, and the second election on tho 4th of January following. The speolal message relating to Leoompton itself was not transmitted to Congres* until the 2d of Fe bruary, 3858. Q. How many Dcmooratio members of Congress approved the Leoompton polio?? A. Well, air, !as a saspioion has been sought to bo thrown upon my course upon tho Leoompton question, it would per haps be well for me to state that the anti-Lccoirip ton Democrats always mot at my house. At the first meeting cf the acti-Leoompton Democrats, which was about the Ist of January, 1858, there were some twenty-four or twenty-fivo present. - I w&b appointed the secretary. Those who met there were Mr. M. McKibbe.h of California, John 0. Davis, Mr. English, Mr. Niblack, (he only met with us once.) Mr. Foley of Indiana, Thchas|l. Harris, Mr. Shaw, Mr. Smith, Mr. Marshall, Mr. Morris of Indiana, Wilson Reillby, Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Hickman, Mr. Chapman, Mr. Dbwart, and Owen -Jones of Pennsylvania, Mr. . Co\- ti Mr. Groksbkck, Mr. Cockrell, Mr. Law rkncf. and Judge Hall of Ohio, Mr. Adbain of New Jersey, and Mr. Clark and myself of New York —twenty four ox twenty-five- altogether. Q. now many adhered to that position upon tbe passage of the English bill? A. There were only twelve—tbe apostoHo nnmber—who voted against the English bill, and one was away, Mr. Mont gomery, who w&b paired with Mr. Wabrbn, of. Arkansas. Q. Did you ever have an interview with the Pre sident in relation to the Lecompton question ? A. Yes, sir. It was an official interview. i Q. If thare is no impropriety in telling us about it, will you please to do so ? A. I had an inter* view with tho President after the first or seciond' meeting of the anti* Lecompton Democrats whom I havo named as meeting at my house. As I had a great deal of solloltnde at the time to have 'Mr. Buchanan’s Administration a successful one, espe cially upon this Kansas eubjeot, I oalled upon him. My littlo daughter was with me. This was long before he sent in his speoial message upon Kansas. I told him that there was this number of Northern Domoorats who would not support what was un derstood to be tho Kansas programme—tbe' ad mission of Kansas under tbe Lecompton Constitu tion. We had a general talk upon the subject at that timo. He asked me what I proposed should be done about it. I told him. vefy frankly that I trusted he would not make any Administration test of Lecompton, but woul*} let tbe Lecompton Con stitution go to Congress from thehandsof John Cal houn, who had been directed by the Convention, wbloh was alleged to have framed it, to transmit it to Congress, and Congress would dispose oi it, we trusted, without hla making it an Administration’ i measure. Tho President said 'that he bad de termined upon his policy upon that question, and as Alabama, Mississippi,’ and Georgia, were about seceding uniats Kansas was admitted under that Constitution, he had/determined to ! send the message to Congress, and make it an ! Administration measure. Subsequently to that a | oommittee wia appointed, at e meeting of tho anti- Lecompton Democrats atmy house, consisting of i Messrs. Jakes B. Clit, Dbwart, and myself, to wait upon the President And beg him not to make this an Administration measure and test. Mr. Dxwart did not go ? °wiug to P OO^0 * relations theretofore with the President, and Mr. Cox went in his place.- That interview was a short time be fore tho President lent in bis Lecompton message. Mr. Clay was the chairman of tho oommitiefe, but each of us made our argument, In as forolbio a manner as possible, to avoid the difficulty which subsequently grew out of this subject of Lecofnp ton In tho House. , / , t . .

Yon needn’t smile—l am in earnest i My reason, ask yon | Certainly; ■ I always try to have a reason for the faith that is in me. I want the slave tradeopened and,legally established here; nay, I would havi Independence Square, where the freedom of this country was horn, turned into a hage slave mart) There would I erect a platform that would delight our seceding brethren of the Sonth, and on it the auctioneer should stand from (t rosy morn till dewy eve." I would have him employed and paii by the State, and kept at his work every day, nntu every slave in the Commonwealth waa sold off tj> the bfgheet bidder. Thus, you will see, paradoxi cal aa It may appear, I am in favor of opening the slave trade here because I am opposed to slavery here. - 1 Oh, It would be such en unottoos pleasure to read in Ths Preasy some fine morning, an advertisement soiaUwhat in this fitshion: i ' Wiii-ber'BOta jot auounnt of the j on the 4th of July next,' at the slave mart in Inda- ,| pendence Bqnare, the following deacribedehafcteli, ; to wit: - j James —an accomplished servant.

(Correspondence of The Press.] POTTSYIIiIiB) June 10, 1860. There is muoh amusement here at this time among the opponents of the Democratic party, and some regret among the true men of the party, that the friends of Douglas have been sold by the dele gate to Charleston, Mr. Hughes The secret lies in this, Senator Bigler, who is the Tycoon of our delegate, is exceedingly anxious to be Vice Presi dent himself, and therefore prefers the nomination Of a Southern candidate. That a large majority Of the Democrats of. Schuylkill are In favor ef Doualas no sane man will deny, and vet by the trlokery ofßigler, the speoial pleading of a lawyer and a committee, made of men of clay; the late meeting was not as emphatic in its declaration for Douglas as the popular sentiment demanded. Ob abamo! Look at Lanoaater, (the hqme of thefavo rite son,) Montgomery, ana all other Democratic counties which nave spoken since the meeting of the Charleston Convention ; they expressed themselves in words of thunder, openly,’ manfully. No padlock was, as in Schuylkill, attached, to their lips, but the flame of indignation for the sin of stifling public .opinion, must and wilt break out, and Bigler and Haghes, and their Guthrie friends, (who in Sohuylral may possibly fill an omnibus.) will bo nowhere. Mind the prediction: the people have been humbugged long enough by Senator Bigler, and are panting to obtain pn opportunity to vote for or against him again, that free expres sion may be given to their indignation.
