A Soldier's Last Letter-47'M
That gallant soldier, General RICJEIAIM MONT
nolirm, fell at the ;dee of Quebec, on the
last day of 1775 At the same time his aids
de.camp, Major lons liaoPownsort, (wrongly
printed .lifoFnumw, in Lossing's Pictorial
Field Book of the Revolution, Vol. 1, p. 198,)
and Captain Cuzusasthx, were also slain. The
spot is still pointed out—namely, at the foot
of a cliff called Cape Diamond, crowned with
the citadel. Of IdeePairnson and CAME
,ILIi6.I4'O are told by Loesnia, that Ce they were
brave and accomplished, and gave assurance
of future renown; but they fell with their
leader, And share with him the grateful rove
renCe of posterity."
The day 'before the attack upon Quebec,
litael'unsson Wrote a letter to his father, which
we shall here give—not only because it is a
model of what a Christian soldier would write
under the circumstances, but because it has
never before been published. It runs thus:
Ali DEAR Person : If you receive this, it will

inclination I feet to assure you that I experience
no reluctance id this cause, to venture a life which
I consider as only lent, to be used when my coun
try demands it
In moments like these, such en assertion will not,
be thought a boast by any one—by my father I am
sure it cannot. It is needless to tell that my

The ease of William Byerly, which has been on

The Sttoggle iu.the South.
It is worthy of notice that much of the
angry declamation in the South in favor of a
dissolution of the Union if a Republican
shotild be elected President is evidently re
sorted to merely for the acCemplisbnient of
partisan purposes, and to consolidate the
Southern voters upon the Secession ticket.
The really earnest, sincere, and uncompro
mising advocates of disunion are in Savor of
disunion for its own sake, no matter what may
bo the ' , result of the approaching contest.
.Thus, the Charleston Mercury of the 23d in
stant says :
Inennatity, oppression, sectionalism, by the
submission of the South, has become the nature of
the Government of the United States. The ag
gression on slavery is only a development of the
nature of the Government. It is a consolidated
despotism ; and if the tendency to consolidation
'and sectionalism could not bo arrested when the
South was strong, how can it be defeated when
the South Is overwhelmed by the power of the
North? No temporary cheek, like the defeat of
Fthinont tn,1850, nor the defeat of Mr. Lincoln
now, tan give us any security or repose. Pease
and safety for the South are gene In the Union.
Thirty years of agitation, and compromise, and
submission prove - it. The collapse of all parties
in the North into sectionalism proves it. The
deadly antagonism between the two motions of the
Union proves it, The singing of birds and the
opening of flowers do not more infallibly betoken
thecoming of spring than the signs around us the
coming of a Southern Confederacy."
The great Disunion organ and those it re
presents evidently regard the success of Mr.
Ltricom; rather as a mere pretext than as a
cause for severing the Confederacy.
But many of the Breckinridge journals take
a different view of the subject. They make
the success of their Presidential schemes the
condition of their continuance in the Union,
and labor to secure as many votes as possible
for their candidates, for the alleged purpose of
Cimsoildating the South, enabling her to pre
sent a united front against (c Northern aggres
sion," and to secede in solid column as soon
as she can be prepared for that movement.
On the other hand, the friends of Boucdas
and of BELL contend that no sufficient cause
exists at present for secession, and that even
if LINCOLN is elected the South will not be
lustified in resorting to extreme measures be
fore an (c overt act," which boldly infringes
their rights, is committed.
Thus the battle for and against the Union is
waged in all our Southern exchanges, but the
tone in which it is conducted clearly shows
that personal ambitions and partisan rivalries
have much to do with the contest, and parti
cularly that many of the Breckinridge organs
are much more intent upon gaining votes for
their favorite candidates, by creating erro
neous impresilons, and by promulgating ultra
ideas, than upon destroying the Federal Go
vernment. Those who wish to obtain a correct
idea of the real state of public sentiment in any
portion of this country, must always make duo
allowance for the exaggerated statements and
extravagant language of excited partisans.
The people of the South would be grossly de
ceived in regard to the.real views of the peo
ple of the North if they considered the widely
published speeches of Abolition orators as a
true indication of them. In fact, the extreme
doctrines proclaimed in either section are
more apt to be extensively republished and pa
raded, because they are startling and somewhat
peculiar, than plain, calm, and common-sense
speeches which enunciate no startling ideas,
but which really represent prevailing opinions.
There are « sensation" orators and writers
everywhere who attract attention rather by
the novelty of their views than on account of
any general confidence id the soundness of
their advice or the correctness of their judg
ment.
In Spite of the reiterated threats of the
Southern journals of a determination to with..
draw from the Union if the Republican candi
date is successful, the position they take is
so unjustifiable, unconstitutional, and revolu
tionary, that it is scarcely possible to place
implicit confidence in its sincerity. When it
is.considered, too, that the antidote every
where follows the bane; that the friends of the
Union in the South tread closely upon the
heels of its enemies, and ably and .43alonsly
combat their dangerous doctrines, it seems
certain that nearly, if not all the States
will bo disposed to wait for an ca overt act"
before they formally assume a disunion atti
tude.
None 'of our free Commonwealths have
been more oppressed and borne down than
New Jersey. The people are Intelligent and
progressive, but for many years past their po
liticians, of all parties, have been fettered to
the ear of a great monopoly—the Camden
and Ambov
_ o 4Thernaty to the State, in the way of
taxation, this company has managed to in
crease its corporate powers, and to dictate no
minations and control elections in most of the
counties. Protest after protest has been burled
against the mismanagement of its railroad
between this city and New York, but in every
case without effect. In vain has the inda%
pendent press denounced this monopoly, and
in vain have the independent people of New
Jersey risen against it. The only answer on
the part of the company has been repeated
usurpations. We regret to say that every
Legislature that has assembled at Trenton, no
matter what the people may have decreed at
their elections, and no matter what its party
bias, has only given to it now immunities, and
inflicted new outrages upon the body po
litic.
Pa. SciruiLan.
The Camden and Amboy Railroad monopo
lists, having successfully taken possession of
the politics of Now Jersey, now extend their
influence into national politics, and, accord
ingly, wo aro,not surprised that, in the Presi
dential contest, they have taken ground bit
terly against Douaras, and In favor of the Dis
union candidate, linEoxmnroax. Tcbtho con
trollers of that corporation the people of New
Jersey are indebted fbr the insolent attempt
to drive the Douglas Democracy or the State
into a support of the Breckinridge or Disunion
electors.
This company is anxious that the new Le
gislaturo of the State shall be composed of its
creatures, because probably a competing lino
may be constructed between New York and
Philadelphia, by which travel and transporta
tion may be somewhat bettor accommodated
than at the present time. Philadelphia, like
New York, can have little or no interest in the
Camden and Amboy Railroad, as it is at pre
sent conducted. It is a Disunion concern,
controlled for the purpose of putting money
into the pockets of a few mon, all neglecting
the public convenience, and all helping for
ward every mal-administration of the General
Government, on the ground that such an Ad
ministration will assist it in its war upon the
rights of travellers, and upon the people of
the State itself.
The lecture season may be said to have already
opened with eignal manes, and if the error, too
common, of supplying quantity rather than quali
ty, is avoided, the public interest in this instructive
class of entertainments can easily be maintained.
Mr. Gough, whose third appearance before an im
mense audience this season we have already
chronicled, is to deliver between now and March,
Val, eight more—not all of them on the subject
ottemperance. The People's Literary Institute,
to which we have, for years past, been indebted for
the best annual series of lectures in Philadelphia,
we learn, have, mainly through their intelligent
and efficient secretary, J. W. White, Esq., comple
ted arrangements for the most brilliant course yet
given under their ausploes. It will include ten
lecturee, the lint of which will be delivered on
the evening of November 22d, by Rev. Henry
Ward Itemizer. Among those who will follow
in the coarse, are Dr. E. 11. Chapin,
George W. Curtis, Esq., Gov. N. P. Banks, Ron.
Charles Sumner, Bayard Taylor, Blehop Simpson,
of the Methodist Episcopal Chnrob, and Rev. Dr.
Storrs, of the Congregational Church. The feet
that each lecture will be delivered by these gen
tleman for the first time In this oily, in the coming
course, will increase the public interest to hear
them ; so that, although this prospective pano
rama of first-class intolleot has been secured
at a cost of over two thousand dollars—the led
tutus themselves receiving over twelve hundred
dollars for their services—the society will doubt
lose more than pay expenses.
Other courses of less note are being arranged,
by various organisations, for sundry objects, all of
which we intend the readers of The Press shell
Have an account of in the order of their delivery.
Thus far, the lecture season of 18604 bids fair to

prospect will be realized.

Italy and the United States—Union
and. Disunion.
There is a class of philosophers who con
tend that there is, in reality, no such thing
as human progress; that the affairs of man
kind do not move in a steady, onward march
towards improvement, but in a dull and
changeless circle ; that the undeniable evi
dences of' advancement which some countries
and some centuries undoubtedly pretont aro
as certain to be followed by fatal reactionary
movements as clouds are to follow sunshine ;
that freedom, anarchy, and despotism come
after each other in quick succession ; that
nations are established; progress, acquire
great power and influence, then gradually de
cline and fall; and that thus, while apparent.
ly old things are perpetually becoming new,
and now things apparently becoming old, there
is, in truth, cc nothing new under the sun."
Those who are disposed to adopt this
view of tho history of' the human race,
can 'doubtless find some things calcula
ted to strengthen it in the actual condition of
affairs at the present time in Italy and in the
United States. For centuries the former coun
try hasauffered almost hopelessly numberless
evils, which have their root principally in the
want of Italian unity, and in the consequent in
ability of her people to guard themselves from
foreign aggression or to prevent the desolating
contests whiCh have necessarily flowed from
the rival ambitions and jealousies of her nu.
nierous petty potentates and princes. - But, to
the surprise of the whole civilized world, a
new spirit has recently animated this unfortu
nate land. Changes vainly wished for and
dreamed of for scores of years aro accomplish
ed in a few short minutes. The people have
risen in all their majesty and strength and swept
away their fetters with magical ease and ra
pidity. Old prejudices, which appeared ine_
radiCable, and old difficulties, which seemed
absolutely insurmountable, have disappeared
before the resistless power of the awakened
hope of Italy for a great, free, and united na
tion. The cry of Unrox is the talisman that
has wrought this wondrous change. It is true
that many things have aided and sustained it ;
that skilful diplomacy in the cabinet, and
matchless bravery in the field, have been its
faithful and resolute allies; that Count CA
voun and .NAPOLEON HI have been busy with
their artful manifestoes, checks, and counter
checks, while Gentnum and the bravo volun
teers of Italy have performed prodigies of
valor in many a sanguinary contest; but the
basis of all the great victories has been the
earnest and resolute desire of the Italians to
unite their long-divided, distracted, and con
sequently helpless country, in one united and
pOwerful nation. This object they have now
almost entirely accomplished, and thus their
future prospectalave been immeasurably im
proved.
While Italy has been for a long period a
terrible example of the evils of Disunion, the
United States have astonished the world by
the rapidity of their growth, and the freedom
and happiness they have enjoyed under
the protection of the proud banner of our
Union. As comparatively small and , in
significant Commonwealths, they would not
only have been perpetually wrangling, and
occasionally waging bloody Wars against each
other, but they would have fallen an easy prey
to any European antagonist who would have
assailed them, and been obliged to tamely,
submit to the insults or indignities of powerful
countries. That our Union has admirably
served the principal objects for which it was
formed, every year of our existence as a nation
has abundantly proved. • He who looks at the
power, greatness, and prosperity of the Ame
rican people as they are, and contrasts their
condition with 'what it probably would have
been if the Union had not been formed and
preserved up to this time, can form some faint
idea of the benefits which have resulted from
the wise and patriotic labors of the founders
of the Confederacy.
And yet, while Italy has been struggling
for Union, and thus aiming to brighten her
future, we have men in our country who bold
ly avow their desire and determination for
"light and transient causes" to sweep away
the fundamental structure upon which all
American prosperity is based—to deprive na
of all security against foreign aggression, to
engender an interrninable'succession of do
mestic strifes, to paralyze industry, array
State against State, section against section,
and involve in common ruin all the great in
terests of our glorious country. They
are apparently surfeited with the freerunt
and prosperity we have estiorred. - Arad their
heartaim,,,.........--uesire to create for their
countrymen a future which shall be as full of
misery and indescribable woe as the past
has been of happiness. If it is indeed true
that destiny inexorably decrees for every
country a period of gloom and desolation as a
surd successor of transitory brightness and
hope, the Disunionists of our laud will prove
Cheerful and zealous agents of any demon
who wishes to afflict us. But it seems impos.
sible that any large portion of the American
people can be so blind to their interests
and so dead to the dictates of wisdom and
the promptings of patriotism as to be misled
by the evil counsellors who seek to lure them
on to ruin.
What Ticket shalt Douglas Democrats
Support?
PIIILADELPMA, Oct. 29, 1860.
To the Democracy of Pennsylvania:
EnBTIIREN ; I have boon waited upon and writ
ten to by numerous Democrats as to the polioy that
ought to bo adopted by us on next Presidential
eleotion day. The fatal conduct pursued by the
Douglas State Committee has placed us in a di
lemma from which it will require great exertion
and the nobl est resolve upon onr part to extricate
the fortuneS of Senator Douglas.
It is unnecessary now to inquire by what system
of legerdemain tho committee into whose hands
were placed the success of tho Demooratio party of
Pennsylvania and the interests of Stephen A.
Douglas, be o erized ; when the election
shall have terminated will be the time to institute
such inquiry. For the present, it is enough for us
to know that they have allowed the popularso
vereigntyfiag of Douglas to bo trailed in the mire.
It remains for us to raise that banner aloft and
tteep it floating to the breeze until 1804, when its
great champion will become our President.
The crisis demands that I should briefly state my
opinion as to the course we ought to pursue on the
6th of November next. That there is little or no
time now for consultation must be evident to all.
Some steps must therefore be taken, and instanter
too, to enable every true Democrat to vote as his
oonsolenoo shall dictate, and according to the
usages of his party. Two or three sterling Demo
crats from each ward or township In the different
counties of the State should immediately meet, if
at all praotioable, and have the straight Douglas
ticket printed, so that they con, be obtained at the
various polls upon election day. I would also re
commend to the editor of The Press newspaper to
print the ticket daily in his paper until the 6th of
next month, leaving sufficient blank space so as to
enable the person cutting it out to fold it and vote
it. Every person taking The Press, after he has
supplied himself, can out out the tickets on succes
sive days, and thus assist his friends. On no ac
count should any nine pollute our hands by depo
siting the Reading Disunion-Secession ticket in the
ballot-box. Let the Douglas Democrats of Penn
sylvania, who can neither ho bought, sold, nor
frightened, not up to this, and the great Demo
oolitic party will be purified and saved. Let the
hirelings of the 0. P. F,, the Disunionists and So
cossionists, vote for Brookinridge. We know that
miserable slaves who hold office dare not vote
otherwise.
- E There is another thing that ought to receive 'im
mediate attention, after the election, and it is
this: There ought to be a popular sovereignty
Douglas State organization. iosoh Senatorial and
Legislative district ought to elect ono representa
tive to a committee, said committee to last for ono
year, to be succeeded by other committees, annu
ally elected, until 1801. The duties of these com
mittees would bo to organize every election di.
vision in the State, so that the twenty-seven dele
gates fromPenusylvania will go as a unit for Don
glee in the next National Convention.
I have thus very briefly stated my views. Busi
ness occupations so absorb my time that I find it
impossible to answer each letter separately; I
therefore have adopted this method to apprise all
my friends of the system I wish to see pursued to
rescue the Democratic , party froth the traitors and
pirates who seek to destroy it.
Do not be afraid of doing what is right. Do not
fear the assaults of hirolings—more hirelings.
Dread not the malignity of the filthy slaves of
Federal subsidized confidential backs of newspa
pers. Adhere to Douglas and popular sovereignty.
Vote a Douglas ticket on oleotion day. Permit no
Disunionist or hired of to participate in your
State organization. Fling your banner to the
breeze for Ramose in 1864. Drive out from your
midst all donghfaces, and, before long, you will
have again a united and a triumphant Democracy.

What could bo bettor osloulaid to awaken a
spirit of resistance to en OXIMVOLI of slavery,
than the pretense set up that our goat charter of
freedom carries it and plants it, ad that statutes
meat maintain it, upon every foot)f our soil out
side of State limits ? The South soul(' not forget
that the North abandoned the Tilmot proviso,
upon the request of the South, in fa legislation of
1850 and 1854, and that the cry fo legislative re
striation is only renewed when to South repu
diate the principles of the Compropise Measures
and the Nebraska-Kansas sot. Tit truth of Con
gressional history, in this partiolar at least,
must make against the South. It till not do for
them to exact a polhiy of the North repudiate it,
and then, through the graceless plioey of a Pro
sident, brand every man as an apostate and
trajtpr who will not bask them up in heir tortuous
course. If those who have thus aotekreally make
up the Democratic party, moat assredly it has
fallen, never to rise, until it shall bo lorn again.
As true as it Is that the South ham lost by in
justice, just so true is it that the NOrth mil lose
by injustice if they attempt to prestige it. No
party—no combination—can comment the public
confidence in this country longer then they shall
be governed by the rules of right. To assert the
contrary would ho to deny the political adorns
upon which all free government must rust The
senalble means to destroy the Republican.crganiza
lion is not force to prevent the inaugurdion of a
President legally eleoted, nor threats of acession,
nor attempted secession, from a Union node by
the Constitution. Any or all of these can a..ceo no
other effect than to strengthen it, and male it en
during. If the South would see Mr. Idneob "fail
like Luoifor, never to hope again," lot then wait
patiently for attempted aggretsion upon lie part.
Then, and not till then, will the povier Wind the

Bound to popular sovereignty as I an—that
popular sovereignty which la not merely " old a e

cuse for disrupting the Confederacy, to hi found

Con. A mere declaration In favor of slavery ex
elusion, embodied in a resolution, can scarcely be
regarded as more operative or effective, or objec
tionable than the ordinance of 'B7, the legislation
of the early Congresses, or the Compromise of
1820. It is by no moans a modern conception, nor
do the Republicans hold a patent for it. We have
overcome many difficulties and solved many knot
ty problems during three quarters of a century,
and I am persuaded that a little common eense,
and a little patience, will enable us to overcome
and solve ethers.
Perhaps it is not extravagant to believe that
Southern extremists foar tnat a Repuldioun Ad•
ministration may bo too moderato and conserva
tive to favor their ends, and that, therefore, thwy
prefer to take time by the forelook. Seth a sup.
„nooition seem. very reasonable, when we -consider
that a crusade against slavery, waged by such an
Administration, could not prove otherwise than a
perfect God-rend to this class of politicians.
It is not to be disguised that many professing
Republicans hold and express what I esteem very
absurd views upon the subject of slavery, but I
do not feel myself justified In denouncing all be
cause of the follies of a fow. I should not liko to
be ganged by, or have my status fixed from the sin
gularities of some with whom I am agsociated in
any cause. Nor have I ever understood parties to
be hold responsible for individual idiosyncrasies.
I have looked down upon the Rouse of Represent
atives too often during its last session, not to fool
that there was there a large force of strong men,
Republicans, who would, whenever an occasion
should require it, constitute a breakwater against
which the surges of fanaticism might dash in vain.
Their bearing, the constitution of their minds, and
their votes, have alike satisfied Me. Then, again,we
must not judge too harshly of our opponents when
in the struggle of an exciting campaign, or when
preparing to enter it. Stump-speeches are ono
thing, sworn action may be another. Opposition
to a corrupt, vindictive, and apostate Administra
tion will not establish unerring rules for the sup
port of a new and different one. The real work
bags of the Republican party in power cannot ho
prophesied. Lincoln may be guossed at, but not
mapped. Their advent, if dangerous. cannot pos
sibly prove fatal. And now, when It is universally
admitted they are on their way to assume tho
reins, why should we not treat them as they have
treated us—wait and watch, and expose ifnecessa
ry ? 'We must do so, whether we would or not.
Ihe United States are not yet pripared for revo
lution, nor will our people tolerate it to gratify the
vanity, or fulfil the wicked prediction, of dema
gogues. If Lincoln is wise and just—and I have
no reason to doubt either—he will, by the exercise
of his attributes, wing disloyalty, strengthen the
Union, and advance our interests. Re will know
neither North nor South, nor East nor West, but a
sisterhood of States and a brotherhood of men.

-The rabid disunion articles in the Constant/on
emanate item the pen Of the Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury, Mr. Clayton.
The President was asked, a fow days ago, if he
would resist seeession. He remained silent.
The excitement in the South is increasing. Gov.
Lacher continues in his warlike measures. Sena
tor Toombs openly declares he will resist the in
auguration of Lincoln by seceding.
The Disunion ohiefs calculate espeoially upon
the aseistnnoe of the young men of the South who
do not own negroes, the some class which woe
called by the negroes and mulattoes in St. Domin
go, in 1790, "lee petite Wanes," (the little whites,)
for the purpose of distingnihhing them from those
who were proprietors. The real clove owners, and
all those who have something to lose, are utterly
opfosted to secession. If the Northern people will
only remain silent spectators, and not increase the
excitement now existing in the South by intermea-
Ming, something which the rebellion loadors
anxiously hope for, Um conservative clement in
the South will drive out the Disunionists in a short
time.
Disunionism M 001133 submission to England. Tho
South, in the event of a dissolution of the Union,
will broomo a British dependency. England is
laboring for the achievement of that result.
If tho President did not secretly countenance
the disunion movement, he would dismiss trona his
Cabinet Seerolaries Cobb and Thompson, who aro
the prinoipal movers in that iniquity.
Aaron Burr did want nothing more than is now
advooitted by our Sweden. Ile desired to form
an independent empire within the boundaries of
the United States. lie was tried for high treason,
and died in exile, despised and shunned by his
countrymen. The abettors of the present treason
able secession movement will share his fate.
The people of the South will never consent to
become British subjeots. Mr. Buchanan, who has
permitted himself to be used as a tool of the ene
mies of this oonntry, who, instead of lifting his
voice and applying the power of his office for the
preservation of the Union and Constitution, has re

While at Chicago, the Chamber of Commerce of
Milwaukee extended to the Philadelphia excur
sionists an invitation to make their city a visa
The invitation was accepted, and on Saturday eve
ning the party went to Milwaukee. At Racine,
they were met by a committee of morehaato and
escorted to the Newhall House, where quarters
had been provided. At II o'clock on Monday, the
Philadelphians visited the Chamber of Commerce,
when Mr. Bill, the President, extended to them a
hearty welcome. Mr. Stokes and Mr. Budd, of
Philadelphia, responded in a bad manner.
- The mous bers of the Chamber of Commerce
showed great cordiality, and did everything in
their power to make our visit agreeable. Every
opportunity was afforded far seeing the city, and
ovary facility offered for ascerti.ining the extent
and character of its trade, its. Thus it was seen
under the most favorable auspioos, and trill doubt

the delightful points on the lakes. GOD. King, of
the Journal, and Mr. Aikens, of the

the visit. Mr Benedict, of the Cleveland Herald,
and Mr. Sutter, mayor of Cleveland, itecompanied
the party as far as this point
Forty years ago, Mr. Juneau came to this place,
located a farm, and cultivated It For several
years ha wax the only settler, but gradually
others came in, and it assumed the character of a
small trading post In 1840 it could scarcely
claim the dignified title of a town; but with other
Western towns, it began those rapid strides which
caused its most astonishing advance. And now,
in that abort apace of time, It Itheretielacil the large
population of nearly 80,000 persons, with largo
stgres, fine houses, and other tuarka of a much
older city. All there attest the fortunate charac
ter of the location. Its harbor, in the form of a
crescent, five miles long and two and a half deep,
with the mouth of the Milwaukee river, presents
many advantages for shipping. Thus, as ono op
the siiiirpiLli — pointe of Lake Michigan, which, ow
ing to its groat depth, never freezes over, and is
open during the whole winter, Milwaukee must
obtain a fair fraction of the hake trade. This year
this trade is more active than at any time within
four or five years. The freights, at present, to
Buffalo, aro from 18 to 20 cents per bushel, while
last year they were but three or four cents; and
from New York to Liverpool they are new about
22 cents per bushel. North of this place is the
great pine region of Wisconsin, and this pours Into
Milwaukee a heavy lumber trade.
Wheat is ono of the main plops of Milwaukee.
To-day's receipts, I notice, are 169,959 bushels.
These reports of Chiongo and Milwaukee literally
show that this section Is the granary of the world.
and will necessarily become the richest section of
this country.

to any city ; and here, as a consequence, you find
large breweries with immense vaults, capable of

There is one feature hero which strikes a Penn•
sylvanian with pleasure. It is the largo and
splendid school•hcusos. These buildings are con
structed in the most convenient manner, and equal
to any of those of the East. Their coat has boon
about $20,000 each, and Milwaukee has nine at the
present time. Thus she is wisely securing her fu
ture welfare, by making the youth of the present
day capable of meeting that future, and able to
sustain the interests of this section. Wisconsin
eon boast of a most generous support of her schools.
The school fund is $5,000,000. The future alone
will show the immense benefits to be realized from
this magnificent liberality. The crash of 1857
affected the progress of Milwaukee, as it did the
West generally, but her present activity will soon
throw into oblivion the sad history of '57, which,
if remembered, will be only for the purpose of
comparing the prevent with the past. The health
of Milwaukee, as'a city, is very remarkable. Lo
cated upon a bluff, it is high above the contagious
influence of the swamp or:111178h. it is surrounded
by a pure atmosphere, which drives out all the
favors which frequently attack lake towns. The
fact is, if people want to die, they must leave Mil

is regarded as one of the most beautiful cities of
the West, and Madam Rumor for once has not ex.
aggerated her beauties. To him who would see a
tine typo of a Western city, we would say visit
this place Wo find hero, strongly represented,
New Yolk and the New England States, the na

others for their shrewdness—two characteristics of

LECTLINES ON ASTROLOGY.—IIte readers
of the afternoon papors of yesterday were amused
to see an advertisement of certain lectures on
astrology, wherein an obscure wiseacre would lay
before the public "a feast of information touching
the manner God governs the world universal."
We recollect to have noticed the name of this
diviner at the head of a precocious sheet, which
heralds the facts of futurity at the moderate rate
of a few pennies per number. The diviner in
question may be a very good sort of fellow; his
profession, and not his character, is the subject of
our comment, and we have seized upon the foot of
his pronuvoiamiento to say a few words upon the
Magic, or wise men and women, of this city. It
is a mistaken idea that incredulity in the marvel
lous is a feature of the day. Tho number of pro.
fessional fortune-tellers demonstrates the existence
of a popular infirmity, and we have ascertained,
from accurate data . , that more than two hundred
male and female impostors are denizens of this
city. The advertisements of Some of these, in
the cheap papers of the day, ore excessively
amusing For a half-dollhr ono can he in
formed, with the greatest certainty, of the future
husband or wife decreed to him, and one dollar
will insure a written certiGaate of nativity, behind
which the Fates cannot go. These are of the
higher class of diviners, or the aristocracy of sooth
sayers ; but there are others who do not scruple to
disclose the secrets of the prison -house, and re•
veal the mysteries for paltry some—" filthy hags "
—whose miraculous abilities can be bribed for a
shilling, and who will venture to disjoint both
worlds, and set aside the ordination of the stars at
the jingle of a dime Such aro the parries to
whom the hired house-girls go when doubtful of
the word of their lover, or tremulous with fear of
overshadowing misfortune. Their earnings-are
squandered on these Jezebels, and stories more
false than ingenious poured into their ears. One
case in this city has come under our cognizance
where three members of a family pursue this ne•
&Hoes trado, and have labelled their dwelling
with announcements 'of their profession, to the
great disgust of the surrounding respeotableneigh•
hors. We contemplate, at no distant day, a visit
I to the Magic. What they have to dealers will
'form a wonderful • chapter Perhaps "they may
' throw seine light upon the contested•eleotion case,
the disunion matter in the Cabinet, or the vexed
matter of the ultimate location of our publio
buildings
ALLEGED ROBBERY BY A OIIAISE DRIVER.
—Yesterday morning a chaise driver, named John
McFarland, was before Alderman Bottler, on the
charge of stealing a travailing bag containing
valuable papers, from Mr. B. ft. Benton. Mr.

TIM 'INQUEST ON THE BODY OF QUIRE.—
Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held on the
body of Alexander Quinn, recently found in the
Schuylkill river, and formally supposed to have
been murdered, on which charge Thomas No.
Laughlin has been for some days held in durance.
A post-mortem examination had been made by
Doctor S. P. Brown. The concluding testimony
was taken yesterday.
Officer John Naulty deposed to seeing the de
ooased early on Sunday morning. Bo appeared
perfectly ebbe to take care of himself.
Gamewell Springer sworn.—Saw Quinn and
another man, supposed to be McLaughlin, at
Twenty-third and Callowhill streets; they were on
the opposite corner from witness ; Quinn fell down,
but when witness went up to him Quinn gat up,
and did not complain of being struck ; he saw the
two going down Twenty-third street.

another man going down Twenty-third street,
locked arm-in-arm ' • thought that Quinn appeared
pot feotly able to take care of himself; 31cLaup
lin did not appear to beg -eativ under the in
fluence of liquor.
It will be seen that this evidence was all of pre
vious summonin*, and bears little against Mc-
Laughlin. The Jury rendered their verdict that
Alexander Quinn came to his death by acoidental
drowning.

THEPT.—Wm. Woods was arrested last
evening at Second and Chestnut streets for steating
a brass kettle from a hardware store. lie will
have a hearing this morning.
The St. Louis News env : The most beastly
murder we have ever boon called upon to record
was committed near Ohambersburg, in this county,
on the night of the 7th instant. The full particu
lars of the vile affair have not been developed ; but
so mush of them as we have been able to gather
are about as follows: Whiteford, the murdered
man, owned a farm near Ohambersburg—he lives
in Canada--and is a man, we learn, of considera
ble property. Ho was out last fall to settle his af
fairs here; and, it is alleged by those birds now in
custody on charge of the murder, that White
ford stole a horse from one of theparty on leaving
for home in Canada, last fall. Bat this has not
yet been substantiated, and, it is thought that
there is no ground on which it can be confirmed.
Some little confusion was created about the alleged
charge at the time, but soon died away. A few
weeks ago, Whiteford again visited his farm. He
was immediately taken in charge by the clique in
question, without a warrant, to answer for horse
stealing. A warrant was finally issued, and one
John Beard—the man from whom it is supposed
the horse was stolen—had himself appointed de
puty constable, and took Whiteford in hand to
await a trial on the Monday following. This was
on Saturday, the sth instant.
It is reported that the man was hung anti beaten
in the meat beastly manner on Saturday night, for
the purpose of making him acknowledge that he
committed the offence with whiCh he was charged.
Finally, on Sunday night following, he was bru
tally murdered—apparently having been beaten
to death with clubs. Tho next morning, when
the citizens gathered in for the trial, it wee an
coerced, by those who had him in charge. that
Whlteford had made good his escape, and that a I
number of the party were in pursuit of lam. The
search was extended for a time with seeming in
difference, and the confused statements of the affair
directly created suspicion, and fen of the party
were forthwith arrested and taken to Athens and I
put under guard for further Inquiry. The people I
then instituted a search for Wniteford, who, they
were almost assured, was murdered, and late lest
Monday the body was found burled about two
feet under ground, with some hruah carelessly
thrown over the place, near the raider:toe of the
said John Beard who had him in charge. On the
recovery of the body the ten men above men
tioned wore put In chains, and are now undergoing
trial. It is current' reported by some that
Whiteford was killed for his money, and that the
charge of horse-stealing was only raised by those
vile desperadoes to get him into their hands.
