Thus far but 69 persons out ,pf tho.whole number are known to have been feared. All the rest are supposed to 'have been drowned/ Among the number lost are .Col. F. ■A.'

A number of plans have been adopted and . io xaifee means to complete the Washington National Monument, but all have fell short of accomplishing that object. First a general col - .lection WW taken up, then boxes were placed at ’the polls In every eiection district, on election day, for the reception of.voluntary contributions. The collections. from these sources failing to se cure the desired end, contribution boxes were ' -placed in all the post offices throughout the country to receive voluntary contributions. The .receipts from this source were encouraging for a time, bet.the novelty of the enterprise has - \worn off. and the boxes no longer receive even a passing notice. As ail benevolent and patriotic paovements, the ladies of the land have stepped “forward and. undertaken to"" do that which the men could pot or would not do. They took charge ofthe matter of scouring a title to the consecrated home of Washington—Mount Ver non after the male, portion of'American society had exhausted .its ■energies in v unavailing- at tdnpteto;secure and they succeeded; and they have undertaken the completion of, the -National Monument, we feel sure they Will be equally successful. We do not know whether a collector has yet been appointed for ibis section, but when one shall have been an ; nounced. we hope to see her request for dona tions .responded to in a patriotically liberal man ner. - The offer to complete the Monument is ns fair and beautiful as the true hearted women who propose it, and is worthy the support and ftoptributioa of every man in the land.

Douglas lias lately made two off-hand and effective speeches in answer to Breckin ridge’s late effort, one at Baltimore and one at Harrisburg. The following extract we take from a report of his Baltimore speech; “ Mr. Douglas proceeded at great length to show by the record of Mr. Breckinridge, that the dogma of non-intervention by Congress on lihe question of slavery in the territories was his, up to the time of his nomination for Vice- President, and it was oh this dogma that he was elected in 1856. Mr. Douglas went to .Ken tucky and addressed the people for three mor tal hours on this question of popular.sovereign ty; he explained it to them just ns he had ex plained it to this assemblage to-night, and Mr. Breckinridge stood by his side applauding him as he progressed, and clapping.him on the hack for his efforts in behalf of this dogma. [Cheers and laughter.] In September, 1856, Mr. Breck inridge visited Illinois, and spoke first in behalf of this dogma, and he explained it so well that he (Mr. Douglas) could not restrain himself from patting him also upon the back.” In the Harrisburg speech, delivered last Friday night, before a very large audience, headed by Gover nor Packer, he addressed himself chiefly to the tariff question, and complained that the negro question has always prevented Congress acting in the matter. Although the main charge bro’t against the judge by the Republicans is that he, more than any other in the country, is.respon siole for this slavery agitation, and that he has done more than all others, by springing the Ne braska bill upon the country, and disturbing the Missouri Compromise at a moment when the whole country bad agreed upon the Clay Com promise as a final settler of the vexed question, to revise sectional feuds and animosity. A Rumobed Political Bargain. —The Phila delphia Daily BuUetin, of Thursday last, con tains tho following in relation to a political trade recently effected between some of the po litical parties in that city - “ In Philadelphia it is understood in knowing circles that an arrangement was consummated.' last night, by. which the Bell and Everett party in this city is to be sold out to tho Democracy. The leaders of the Bellites, Douglasites, and Breokinridgers held a meeting and perfected the terms of the sale. They are as follows: —The Bell and Everett city ticket is to be supported, both branches of tho Democracy dropping their candidates to that end. Mr. Brodhead, the Democratic candidate for Congress in the Sec ond District, is to be slaughtered, and Henry M. Fuller, the Bell and Everett candidate for the same position, is to be supported by tho fu sionists. In return for all this the Bell and Everettcrs are to support General Foster for Governor, and also the regular Democratic no minees for Congress in the First, Third, Fourth and Fifth Districts. The Presidential question is to be left open until after the second Tuesday in October, f Fusion in New York.— A despatch from New York, dated Sept. 9th, says: “ After the ad journment yesterday of the Breckinridge Gqm- Douglas Sub-Committee on the pro posed fusion, agreed to accept the proposition ofthe former as thebasis of a fusion, subjeetto the ratification of the Douglas State Committee. The propositions are ten Breckinridge men on the electoral, and the Lieutenant Governor and Canal Commissioner on the State ticket. The Douglas Sub-Committee finally agreed to the propositions, and recommend the State Commit tee to ratify their action. The matter now rests between the two Chairmen of the State Commit tee, and will probably be adjusted as above.” P.'S. We learn from the N. Y. Times that;the above fusion has been repudiated by tho chair man of tie Breckinridge committee. jjr. Breckinridge’s friends here from the- North and South, says a Washington telegram to the Times, express great dissatisfaction at his dodging the question which Douglas so prompt-; ly answered at Norfolk,—that is, wbat he would ; do in the event of a State’s attempting to secede•: on the election of Lincoln. The truth is Breok- ' inridge could not answer without driving from him some of his followers in one section or the other of the Union. The Bell and Everett Com mittee, says the same dispatch, are in receipt©/ letters to-day from nearly every Southern State giving flattering accounts of their projects. Bgk- The war of the divided Democrapyrages as bitterly in California ns Central Committee, at its late session, broke up in a row, and each faction lays the blame upon the other. 1 / - Mr. Breckinridge, in his speech of the 7th of September, said of the Bell and Everett era, “they are gentlemen engaged in ringing: bells, with tongues as long and heath as empty as the bells they ring.’ 1 ggy* The Memphis Inquirer saga lf parties remain on the same fOotm g until November, Mr. Bell’s majority in Tennessee cannot foil short of 45,000. . 1 jj@- There are forty-seven ..newspapers in Texas supporting' Breckinridge, anff not one in fnvor of Douglas. No man has taken the stump for Douglas. Agreeable Informatics fob Pork-Eaters. —The “ Academie'des Sciences,” of Paris, has just received a communication, which has liter ally caused the quills upon that fretful porcu pine to Stand on end with horror. A savant of Wurtemberg,' M. Wirchow by name, announces the fearful discovery he has just made, of the existence of a dreadful microscopic animal, the truehina sparatis, in the flesh of hogs, no'mat ter how prepared, whether you call it pork, bam, bacon, sausages or polony. "When an in dividual happens to eat of this animal in abun dance he is observed to grow pale and emacia ted in a few days afterward, his strength deserts him, and he dies at tho end of the sixth week. A post morten examination shows the muscles of the body to be filled with truehina sparatis, which proves that death must be occasioned by muscular consumption, owing to the attacks of this horrible little monster. Liberality of Gen. Cass. —The Detroit Tri bune says ; “ Last spring, when Gen. Cass laid out his farm into lots, in the north-western por tion of the city, -without solicitation he very; generously offered the Congress Street Metho dist society sufficient ground on which to erect a church and parsonage on any part of the farm they might select. The trustees being called together, determined to accept the liberal offer of three lots, corner of Cass avenue and George street, : making one hundred and fifty feet square, valued at not less than $3,000, on which the trustees will commence the erection, early next spring, of a commodious church, which will cost not less than $3,000, and will be known as tho Cass Avenue M. E. Church.” . Gen. Walker Surrendered. —The steamer Osceola has arrived at Batabano from Truxillo. The commander of the English man-of-war, Ica ries, ordered Walker to surrender the town. —• Walker obeyed, and retreated down the lower coast with eighty men. According to lost ad vices, his force was reduced by continued at tacks by the enemies of Walker. Walker was severely wounded in the face. Several of his wounded followers at Truxillo were placed aboard the Icaries. Vermont Election.— Returns from l43 towns give Fairbanks 14,7-15 majority ; a Republican gain, since last year; 0f2,937.
