8 THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 18G8. V ALLAN!) IQH AM. ygUnt he Bays attar his llanalmatloa far Mr. Vallanfllghara tm waited upon at his residence In Dayton on the night of the 18th instant, ad in answer to the congratulations ot his fronds upoa his nomination at the Dfn ratlc candidate lor Congress from the Third Ohio District, raid:- , A1 . It is will known that the nomination is not such as I expected. It is not what I desired, and at another Urn's and nndr different cir cumstances, I might well hesitate to accept. By no wish, and i.o act of mine, direct or Indi rect, am 1 a candidate. Mj position Is not the result of any ambitious aspiration of my own It is b duty imposed upon me. I would gladly shrink irotn its Ubors, its vexations, ana its responsibilities. But at such a time, and in IU9 midst of a political campaign like the present, l am constrained to yield obedience to tue em phatic demand of the cron'ventio o. Id accepting this tr.iat I lay aside all Inllvt. viduallty. i have personal won the support or the vote of any man, nor do i desire any citizen to regard his suttrage ad a manor of mere personal lavor to mo 1 stand before the people of the district not as an individual, hut as the representative of the ancient principles aim piescuv punum mi the Denjoctatic party as the ripreeutative of not the deai past, but the living present; of the questions pending to-day between the revolu tionary and destructive organization known as the Kepublican party as it now exists and the Democratic and conservative masses of the peo- Sle, without reiercnce to former issues and pit iftprruci'8, whether of live years or tiiteen 5 eHis huo, Itisuotwbat was done or omitted br parties ai they were organized in ISjt or 1803, but whiit is to be dune to-day and to-morrow and nct year lor the relief ot tne people. (Cheers.) As a cnudidaie ' repre-seut the views and teelinKs and purposes ot the puny, an 1 the men who demand that the further domination ol the radical KcrmlTican fuction, with its military despotisms, its negro Governments, its disregard ot the Constitution, its hae of the old Union, its high, oppressive tariffs, its burdensome and vexatious taxes, lis enormous Bud increasing Government debt, its exemption of the rich troin equal taxation, its demand of pold for the bondholder and paper for the peo ple, its gigantic peculations, plundering, and corruptions, and Us most protligate aud extrav agant expenditures in time of proiound peace Bhall come to au end forever. (Loud cheers.) Whoever of either party thinks that these toing ought not any longer to he endured cannot hesi tate as to his vote, lor these arc the questions of the present and the future, (applause.) If this nomination, my Irieuds, however graiilylng, is to be reearded as a mere personal lavor to me as au individual, and If votes are to be given or withheld upon any such consideration, I raot xeepectiully decline it. If, however, every citi zen is by' his ballot to express his views and his convictions upon public affairs, 1 accept it, since you, my friends, have not deemed me incompetent or unlit to faithfully represent sud carry out the principles and r policies which are tne i-sues in tins election as have just f et them lonh. As to the result of ie canvas, allow me a word. You know that the this district was, six years ago, made heavily Republican, as that party was then organized; but times are change and election returns with them, and the vote six years or two years ago any where is small evidence of what it shall be in October or November next. Resting the campaign solely upon the great questions which now come homo to the hearts and pockets, too, of the people, and asking the judgment of the voters of this district wholly upon them, I have but little mere of pTsonal interest in the result than any other cliizen. But my conn dence in the lu'eilieence and honesty of the people and in the power ot these issues is very great, aud, without sounding manifesto or boastful prumbc or pledges, 1 only say to you that I propose calmly, steadily, qu'.etly, and with determined purpose to go to work and carry this District. (Great cheering.) Whether I shall succeed I can tell you better on the morning after the election. (Laughter.) But meantime, my friends, while you spare no honorable effort for success, do not concern yourtelvcs about either the idle boasts or the vulgar asauts and falsehoods and fabrications of the enemy. It is the mission of little creatures to abuse Valiaudigham, and it is bis business to pass them by with profound contempt. (Cheers.) As for myself. I propose lo deal fairly, honestly, and kindly with all ad versaries. In this spitit lsball at the outset meet the gentleman who is to be my competitor, and it is for him to say whether he will recipro cate the courtesies usual among gentlemen. And now, my iriends, once more thanking yon for this kind and coraial "surprise party," upon an occasion most unexpected, and trusting to meet you atrain wheu better prepared to extend the hospitalities of former times, I bid you good UhjLt. (Loud cheers.) VICTORIA. Tine Attempt to Assaeslaate the Qwaeia or jsafisaa. This morning's European despatches con tained the meagre account of an attempt made to assassinate Queen Yictorla at Lucerne, Bwltzerland. The New York World thus com ments: The Queen of Great Britain has numerous nersonal virtues to recommend her to her people. Coming of a bad race, taking charge of a Court by no means purified lrom the indecen cies of the Regency, ehu his ever sho wn herself highly sensible ot her moral obligations and careful to make her courtiers feel the same. On this account, whatever may have been her weakness as a political ruler, sue Las constantly merited the esteem of her subjects, and of numbers, too, who owe her no allceriauce. If any sovereign in Europe were likely to escape assassina tion it would be Queen Victoria. Unfortu nately, however, her life has on more than one occasion been the object ot an assassin'd aim. In June, 1840, while yet a girl, a poor wtetch named Oxiord, more thau naif de mented, endeavored to assassinate her, but happily in vain. Scarcely two years afterwards John Fiancis was sentenced to be hanged lor a similarly unsuccessiul attempt, but the excel lent 3 oun, Queen woul 1 not permit the execution of the sentence, in July, 1812, John Deau was sentenced to imprisonment tor eighteen months lor another attempt. In these cases tue criuiiuaU have beeu invariably Englishmen. Speaking ot attempts on the queen's lue it may not be out ot pl.ice to call attention to the rumors prevalent some thirty years ago, of the more than legitimate uuxietv of her uncle, the Duke of Cumberland, alierjvaids King of Hanover, to have her removed Irotn his path to the throne ot tue Go'-rges. On account of this well-known fueling her mother, the Duchess of Kent, constantly circulated rumorsot the young .Princess' declining health. These had their effect, an 1 no kriown attempt on her life watt made before the first just mentioned. The cable telegram of Uiis morning, which, with uiea'jie deinil. announce a rumored at tempt on her Majesty's itie in Switzerland, it is not necessary to i-ta'e, requires confirmation. And that portion which impliedly charg-a u eocittv einliruciut! a lurge section of the Cfltls race with coldly and deliberately planning as unnecessary a crime as there is recorded, needs very strong evidence in i' support. We hesitate to admit that even a bona fide attempt has been mede bv some enthusiast, like the Vlctoriau, O'faiTcll. rendered senseless by broouing over Ol'ie wrousis and ro-rpooi-iblo only lor himself. At the inoseut moment the tide of popular feeling is setting etronelv in En el and towards "justice lor Ire land." 'The strength of Unit current involves the existence of a areut political party now ruliDg the country, aud the Ueaven-boru minis ter of these latter Jays might not be scrupulous as to Ihe menus he my employ iu diverting the tide. Until it is placed beyond all doubt that this alleced attempt at assassination was p'anued by the Fenian organization, let our readers remember the k.'udly feelmes of the Irish people towards the Qu'eeu personally, aud that knowing who is to De the nxt King of Britain there is constantly on te" Hps the re mark of diaries to his brother -"Junien, they Kill never desalinate me to wake ju King." THE CELESTIALS. Cklaa la Bosto-A. urtad Baqw em Spaeehee. The corporation banqnet to the Embassy M the St. James Hotel, Boston, last night, was elecantand Interesting. Mayor Shortleff pre sided, and introduced the speech-making by a complimentary allusion to the illustrious Embassy, and the ancient dynasty which It represents. Governor Bubock, on the part or the State remarked that no duty remaiued fir him save t.i officially assure the aistinguishea guests of the hearty concurrence of the Execu tive in the honors tendered by the City of Boston. In closlDg the Governor satdi You may aik, it you will, why China comes here with an American citizen lor her himba'sv dor, to demand a high place of dignity among the countries, and she answers witb the elo quence ot a long and masterly history, that sne comes offering only terms ot international equality, as one Of the peoples and Governments ot the world ot to-day, compacted and rtbbe I by the vicissitudes ot fiity centuries, self subsistiug against all efforts to assail or invade her, but willing aud anxious now to welcome the satis of jour commerce into her ports, the voices of your missionaries into her interior, and the lights of your citizens within her jurisdiction In that spirit, aud ii that cause, I welcome Mr. Burltngame aud his associates, and bid them God speed on their way to the other countries. 'ihe lion. Charles Sumner spoke at length, pronouncing a warm eulogy upon Mr. Burlin game, in which be said: "Mr. Uurlingame was not only my personal friend, but an honored associate iu representing trie good people ol this commuutty, and In ad vancing a great cause, which he championed With memorable eloquence and fidelity. 8uch are i o common ties. Permit me to say that this Eplct.dul welcome, now ottered by the municipal authorities of Boston, is only a natural expres sion of the sentiments which must prevail In this community. Here hiB labors and triumphs began. Herein jour eprly arplaueeaud approving voices he first tasted of that honor which is now his in such an pie measure. He is one of us who going lot lli into a strange country has come back with its biebest trusts and diguities. Once the representative of a siusle Congressional district, he now represents the most populous iiatioc ot the globe. Once the representative of a little more thau a third part ot Bjsiou, he is now the r -preventative or more th in a tliird part ol the human lace. The population of the globe is estimated at 1, 200,00(1,000, that of China at more than 400,000,000 and sometimes at even 00,000,000. If In this position there be much to rxcue wonder, there is still more for gratitude in the unparalleled opportunity which it affords. What we all iisi is opportunity here, opportunity ou a surposlag scale, to be employed, I am sure, so as to advance the best in'erests of the human lamily; and if thess are advanced no nation can suffer, with justice aLa generosity as tne reciprocal rule, and nothing else can be the aim of the precut mis sion. There can be no limits to the immeasura ble consequence. For myself, I am less solicit ous with regard toconce;:Sions or privileees than with regMrd to that spirit ot friendship and eood neighborhood which embiaces alike the distant and the near, and when once established lenders an else easy. Mr. humoer men gave an mterest ine review of the visit of Marco Polo to China. in the thirteenih century, as described bv the Vcnitian historians, and drew comparisons be tween tue experiences or Polo and Burlingame. In conclusion, Mr. Sumner said: And this brings me, Mr. Maor, io the treaty which you Invited me to discus. But I will not now enter unon this loplc. Ii you did not call to order for f peaking too long, 1 urn sure I should be called to orotr in another place for undertaking to tpehk ot a treaty which has not yet beeu pro claimed by the President. One remark I will make, and take the consequences. Tne treaty does not propose to do much, but is an excel lent bcginniug; and I trust through the good omces ot our fellow-citizen, the honored Pleni potentiary will unlock these great Chinese f-ates, which have bi-en bolted aud barred for ong centuries. The mission is more than the treaty, because it will prepate the way for further intercourse, and will help that new order ot things which are among the promises of the lulure. CRIME. A Lyncblag Mob Firad 17 pom nad Oat Killed. The Ilopkinsville (Ky.) Courier of recent dale sajs: John Coombs, as onr readers will remember, has figured tor some time past, and on various occasions, in our police reports, charged with the offense of whipping his mother. In the opinion of some ot the young gentle men of our city, the arm of the law was too short and weak to Inllict u punishment com mensurate with the magnitude of the offense charged. These young gentlemen determined to take the law in tneir own hands. We do not approve ot any violence of mobs and the Use. We were not, however, the legal adviser of these young gentlemen. They, according to Coombs' state ment, ditguising themtelves as negroes, pro ceeded to his house, determined to punish him as they thought be deserved. Aimittance being demanded by these disguised parties, Coombs, being thoroughly am ed, determined to give battle. From his station at an upoer window, he tired upon the assailing party. The ball took etlect in the head of Kobert Hunter, shattering the skuII and causing instant death. Hunter's companions then retreated. The deceased was well known in this community, was a carpenter by trade, and a clever, kind-hearted man. Coombs was arrested, tried, aud acquitted, as be w as justifiable in the premises. The same paper contains a card, signed by Coombs' mother, iu w hich she states that her son bad not npor the occasion spoken of, or at any other time, abused Ler or used any violence towards her. Vbrti lndlaalaas Asaaaalaatad la Mo. The New Albany (Ind.) Commercial of Wed nesday last says: By a special despatch from Crawfordsville we have the following particulars ot a most hor rible triple assassination. The despatch says: "The citizens ot Crawiordsville have beeu veiy much hocked by the receipt of a letter from Curihage, Missouri, coutaiulug the distressing intelligence that three former citizens of this iilace, Mr. Israel Putton, his son, and nephew, dr. Nelt-on Moore, were receutlv assassinated near Carthage. It seems thut they nad bs.-n miKHiig several days, and a search was made for them, which resulted in finding their Oodles bung to a tree, with their throats cut, evidently having been lelt in lhat coutlliiou for several days. Mr. Patton lived withiu a tew miles of Crawfordsville lor a number of years, and po tessed an excellent moral character. His son served in the army credibly, and wa iu niauv respects a n.ost worthy man. Air. Moore, the ntphew, was remarkably quiet, never saying a word to give offense to any one. We are unable to lenru the probable reason of the outraire. and lrom the well-known character of them all, arc lelt to infer that they are the victims of Kebi 1 hatred, as they were all thoroughly loyal and lovers of then- country. Their death his occasioned a feeling ot sniness in the commu nity, and we wait with much bolicilude the particulars in the case." THE EXPRESS ROBBERS. llano and Aadsr.oa Dlscbargad at Wladaor aad Uaarrsatatl. The Detroit (Mich.) Tribune, of August 20, tays: Yesterday the case of the United States against Frank lteuo aud Charles Andersou was culled up agaiu betore Police Magistrate Carou, at Windsor, for further examination. When the case was called, Albert Prince, who was em ployed to conduct the examination lor the pro-f-ecution, renewed his motion of yesterday for the nmuifion of certain documentary evidence. The magtstiute declined to receive it, unless the piosccuiion would produce Ilarklus, the mam witness against the defemiau's, in order to give them an opportunity to meet him face to face and subject bim to a croas eiamiua tion. He said he had examined the statute and had come to the c inclusion, that it was entirely oi.'cretionflry with him to admit or reject the documentary evidence, and under the cireura Muuceu he should exclude It, At the Muteitiou of Mr. Prince, a note of this discaslon was mfle by the clerk, and the counsel then an nouncfd that he should not Introduce Harklns, a r would he eive aovraason for hii non-nro- 4 ictlon In Court. He announced at the same time that be could not proceed further with tne case unless permitted to Introduce the deposi tions. The Court offered to give hint further time to procure testimony, but the offer was declined, and the magistrate then discharged he prifonen. No sooner had they been set at liberty than Ibey were rearrested on a warrant charging tbem witb having committed an assault with intent to kill Americus Wheedon, conductor on the Jefferfonville, Madison and Indiana Rail road, in Indiana, on the 22 1 ot JUy ias issued by Gilbert McMirken, another of the maelsiratcs in the town. This action was not entirely unexpected, although the source from which the wan-ant drenaled created a little surprise. The prif oners, about noon, were arraigned bdlore Mr. McMicken, pleaded not guilty, and the ex amination was adjourned until 2'30 o'clock, at which time the Court reopened at Sandwich. T. O. Ilatkms, the mefsecger alluded to above, ap peared in prcpri a person a, and swore positively lhat Frauk Beno and Cuarles Anderson, Sen., are the men who robbed the express car. He declared that he could not be mistaken In regard to the Identity of the prisoners, aud gave his testimony in such a manner as to leave little, if any, room to doubt its correctness. Mr. Whet don, the conductor of tbe train which was robbed, and who prelerred the charge of assault with iutent lo kill, failed to ideality the accused. Some other testimony of an unim portant nature was taken, when, owing to the lateness of the hour, the case was adjourned for a furl her bearing at 10 o'clock A. M. today. It is understood that the British Minister at Wahington has written to the Canadian Gov ernnient, requesting them to use every honora ble ellort to secure the extradition of Ueni and Anderi-on, and the Adams' Express Company are determined they shall come over if they are guilty. The defendants, on the o'her hand, have strong hopes ot proving au alibi. EXTRAORDINARY LARCENY. A Womaa la a Papar Collar Manufac tory Defrauds bar Kmploysra out of 84000. Tne New York Times of this rooming says: A very remarkable ca-e ot err bczziement was made public yesterday nt the Tombs Police Court, bi loie Aldeiman Coman, when a lore worn au employed in a paper collar manuiac.ory was airaigned on a charae ot embezzlement. It appears ftom the statements of the complainant in the case that Messrs. Mersserole & Llbby have been lor some time exiensively engaged iu the manufacture of payer collars at their j rem lets, Nos. 76, 78, and 80 Cenire street, and rave had iu their employ, as forewoman aud superintendent of the "patchmg-ro im," one Mrs. Poer, who bad under her direction from bl'ty tj eighty girls, who placed in position the small pieces of linen used io streugtneu ihe button-boles of the collars. She had lull con trol ot the girls, and on her recommendation these operaiives were either engaged or dis charged. Mrs. Poer kept a pa-s-Oook contain ing the names ot tne girls uuuer her direc tion, in which she en'ercd the amount of work perlormed by each. These girls '"patched" collars by piece-work, receiving from sixty to eighty cents per thousand, according to the demand for aud price of collars in the market. When a girl had "patched" say 1600 collars on a certa-u day the forewoman would credit them with 2000 or over, and at the end of the week, when tne operative had drawn her money, she would be compelled, under threat of discharge, to return the surplus amounts to the forewoman, who, ot course, made a considerable sum each recurring weekly pay-day. She would also insert tne names of girls who had been dischaiged from tue manu factory in the pay-roll, aud induce certain d apes t-t her own to step up and draw the money ci edited to these discharged bands and surrender the gteater pari lo Mr6. Poer. The mm have been makine, as they supposed, a large number of collars, and it was out v yes terday, when an invoice of stock manufactured bad been taken, that the Srui discovered that they were out 2,383,353 collars, or rather, that they nail paid lor tno pa cniug"ot that num ber, w hen the work had uji been pertorinel This was the lowest calculation that the uiciu bers ot the firm could make, and they are not yet sure that the amount embezzled does not reach a higher sum than $1007 "50. that being about what the missing number of collars would have cost had they been honestly made. The sum obtained by Mrs. Povr, through her "dummy" operatives, cannot be well etimattd, tbouch it is supposed to reach over S2000. When a luriLer investieation was made in the matter the girls employed in the "patchlug" room laid bae thttir sbare of the trausactiou, and the entile ramifications of this complete system of embezzlement were matte maoifest. Ihetc "uatcbini;" girls are all of lenuer aee. aud the majority are without homes, relatives, or mental tiainlnc, several of theoa being regular inmates of the Girls' Lodging Houses, or the working women b Home. ine nrm hascou tinucd to keep nearly nil of them employed throuchout the year, and truMed Mrs. Poer im plicitly in the management of the details of her department. Several girls who proved contu macious regarding the money system inaugu rated by the clear beaoed iorowomau were dis charged on her representations of ill conduct aud careless work; but iu many instances taeir names were used by Mrs. Poer as a cover lor reuewed embezaeinents.
