A RiJicnloui Story.
In the columns of Unit ileWUMo eliect
"ihe Philadelphia Daily New, wi findn lptter
ignodTjy person calling bimsclf a 'Thiln-
dolpbia Jew," and Dialing that ho was
horn in rhiladolphia, which in n dolnilod
''oock and bull" story about Lis having
been arrested in Switzerland, bonuiseof
bii religious opinions, and of the imbe
cility of th Amoricau Consul who,
tpon application being made to him, do
flarod his inability to aid Jiim, as the
laws of the land did not permit any Jen
to live lb ore, and how ho was compelled
to apply to the Brititth Consul, wbo only
obtained Lis liberation on condition of
bis leaving the conntry. Now wh.le wo
do not take tho responsibility of contra
dicting tho News' Correspondent, we can
notbut regard it as rather an unlikely story.
In the first place the American Consul, if
he had been aware of the "Philadelphia
.lew" being a citizen of the United States,
ould have bad him liberated as easily as
the British Consul, and we Lave no doubt,
had he been so informed, would have done
lis duty. In the second place, tho "Phila
delphia Jew" would doubtless have been
liberated on his own application by piomit
ing to leave the country. In tlte third place
tur " I'hiaueipnia Jew toigets to ive
any names of persons and places, leaving
ui entirely to conjecture as to the locvt in
fuo, except so far as lie may learn from
his sneer at the "petty Republic of Swit
wrland," (we havo no doubt "a Philadel
phia Jew" detests Republics, petty or
jrand,) which ho most certainly could
and should have done if he expected his
statement to bo credited, and in the fourth
and last place, "a Philadelphia Jew" is
most likely a Philadelphia Enow-Nothing
who desires to say something derogatory
of the government under' which he lives,
and its officials, and in all probability
knows as little about the "petty Republic
of .Switzerland" by actual observation, as
he docs about telling a plausible story.
" We would advise " Philadelphia Jew"
before he undertakes to write another let
ter, to take instructions from " Occasion
al," tho very reliable (!) and adroit Wash
ington correspondent of a certain ally of
his patron, who may be found somewhere
within the precincts of his native PhJLa
falphia.
Tm nut Govirnor. We observe that
a number of the most influential Demo
cratic journal in the State, Lave respon
ded in terms highly complimentary, to
tho recommendation made through the
oolumns of the Centre Berichter, and the
"Republican," about the same time, of
Tas. Macmanus, E?q., as a candidate for
Governor in 18C0. Wo are much gratified
at these deserved acknowledgments of the
mental and moral worth of an excellent
citizen and deserving democrat; and as
wo said on a former occasion, although it
is not our intention to advocate the claims
of any candidate so long before the time
of determining the question, wc Lave no,
hesitation in saying that Mr. Macmanus
would prove an excellent Governor. Wo
have had these remarks suggested to us
by teeing in the Milton Democrat of a re
cent date, an attempt to connect Mr.
Macmanut with tho "Bogus" Democrats,
who have been trying to disorganize the
party for a year past. We cannot con
ceive what could have induced the editor
of the Democrat, whom wehavebeen wont
to regard is a gentleman, and a man of verac.
ity to do to, for wocsn scarcely think that
be is not awaro that the principles of the
Democratic party has no more faithful de
fender, nor those of tho opposition no
more inveterate and effective enemy in
the State than James Macmanus, not
withstanding I that hermaphrodito sheet

crat do Mr. M. justice. '

low it who will, and those win will not
quietly, trill havo it poured down their
throats raw or dieguised in sonio other
preparation. Ono of the oljocts of the
Convention seemed to bt the endorse
ment of Hon. Simon Cameron w ith a view
to backing his aspirations for tho Presi
dency, as the candidate of the "People's
party" in J800. This is the nnmo by
which tho canvention designated tho or
ganization which they prolessed to repre
sent, and not a very inappropriate ono
for it either, for it seems to be made up
of all sorts of people, especially in apoliti
cal sense.
Tho deliberations of tho "People's" con
vention wo have been reliably informed
was not of the most harmonious character ;
and if they succeed in gelling through
another convention, without a scene that
shall rival .any former opposition feuds,
then we are no judge of prognostications
The Fry Divorce Case.
Wo copy the following on the Fry Di
vorce Case, from tho Blair County Whig of
tho3dult., which takes a rather different
view of the merits of the above case, from a
number of tbo newspapers of this State
during the pendency and since the defeat
of Mr. Fry's application, before the last
Legislature. We have not deemed it ne
cessary to express any opinion upon the
it, as in the absence of a full knowledge
ofthe case 111 all its bearings, that would
be very difficult to do correctly; but we
give the extract to show that there are,
or were, two sides to tho case when the
vote was taken, and that possibly the
"immortal eight'', who voted on the di
vorce were not so far wrong after all.
" Among the multitudinous affairs befoie
the Legislature last winter, nothing at.,
traded so much general attention as the
petition of Mrs. Emily L. Fry, praying
for the passage of an act divorcing her
from Horace P.. Frv. It was the theme of
constant conversation at the Cnpital, and
tho riiiladelphians engaged in a newspa
per war which at one time threatened se
serious consequences. Tho details of the
case have "become as familiar as house
hold words," but it was only on tho very
eve of the adjournment of the House of
Representatives that the full facts of the
case came before the law-makers atllar-
risburg. It appear, from 'he evidence of
Mrs. Fry that she never had any affection
for Fry, but married him at the urgent
and repealed solicitations of her mother,
at a time when age had not sufficiently
matured her intellect to see, in all its
bearings, the responsibility she van tak
ing upon herself. This will be the better
understood, when wo say that those who
saw her, inform us that in looks and sta
ture she is a mere child, although it is
alleged that 6ho is eighteen years of age.
Under these circumstances, it is not at all
strango that she soon repented of giving
her hand when the heart did not accom
pany it, and revolted in a manner not to
be mistaken by Fry himself. Did he, like
an honorable roan should do, after he
seen the unmistakable evidence trot he
did not possess her affections, second snd
encourage an cff.irt to obtain a divorce?
Not a bit of it. On the contrary, he not
only interposed objections, but even went
so far as to blacken her fair fame. Now,
if there was no ulterior object in view, is
it reesonablo to suppose that Horace .15.
Fry, or any other man could live with a
woman possessing the character he gave
her? This ulterior object he explained
in Harrisburg, by stating that U wished
to get a divorce in the court, in order to
vindicate his character, which had been
maligned and traduced by the appellant
This view of tho case made him friends,
but subsequent events have put another
face upon tho matter, lie has not moved
to get a divorce in any of the courts since
the Legislature adjourned, which now
leaves the interference that if mercenary
motives did not govern the broker in con
slructing the alliance, he is evidently gov.
erned by ft desire to be bought off.
There is one thing now among fixed
facts, and that is if he does not push the
matter to an issuo before the next meet
ing of the Legislature, she will obtain a
divorce which she might have accom
plished last winter herself, Lad she visited
Harrisburg two weeks earlier, and rested
of malevolence. John Grigg it one of the!000 worth of ,06S had 6one ever tho fhlls

intelligent citizens who possess nearly one
half of this great country.
It seems to matter not, that not a single
influential statesman of tho South is
known to favor tho views of a few mad
caps, and that many havo shown both the
impolicy of such a ridiculous agitation and
the sinfulness of the scheme for every
cairn mind must instantly percievo the
distinction between holding nogrocs in
bondage, wbo are born to that position,
in such wise that manumission is impossi
ble, and the traversing of broad seas to
wrest the inhabitants of another Continent
from the soil and climate to which they
were created, for thepurposoof transplant
ing (hem to a region for which God did not
destine them which there are some mad
enough and rapacious enough and suffic
iently blinded, by an insane desire for gold,
to believe even possible in this century or
civilization.
Each day we mori clearly perceive the
dislike iJj which tho Democracy of the
South view the proceedings of the few ultJt
agitators, and gladly notice tho en
thusiasm with which tho sneoch of the
Hon. J acop Thompson, at Raleigh, North
Carolina, whither ho aecompaniod the
President, was received by tho large as.
sembly. In the course of his remarks he
incidently observed:

ingdon Globe of June 1st says:
Last Sunday week ft fight occurred in
a Sunday School, out on tho Ridges, about
five miles from this place, at what is call
ed the Union School House. The facts of
the case, as we learn them, are as follows:
The school met at the usual time. Mr.
John Flenner teaches a Bible class, and
during the time of reciting lessons, one of
the members composing Mr. Flenner's
class, named Smiley, became unruly, snd
he attempted to put him out, whereupon
Smiley struck him, and then a Mr. Thomp.
son interfered to part them, when Fleno
ner turned on Thompson, and gave him a
choking. Finally the row was quelled and
they all returned to their homes. Tho
constable of that region being an eye
witness to tho fuss, brought suit against
Messrs. Flenner, Smiley and Thompson,
and on Saturday last they had a hearing
before Esquire Snare, who fined Flenner
and Smiley five dollars each and costsi
and discharged Thompson.

FROM THE WESTERN GOLD MINES-
BV OVERLAND HAIL IXTRKSS.
Leavenwortu, June IO.-Advice brought
here by express coaches from Denver City
(which started on tho 1st instant) contain
the most extraordinary accounts regard
ing the gold digging, and are calculated
to renew the fever with tenfold more vir
ulence than ever.
Rich nuggets had been discovered on
the North Fork and Vasque Creek.
Thoy were principally of gold and decom
posed quartz.
Great excitement prevailed all through
the country, and the statements of tho
yield ol Gregory'sand other mining compa.
nies aro almost fabulous.
It is said that a company from Indiana
arc making from $150 to $500 a day.
The other accounts aro of the same
chin aeter, and unvarying.
The letters, which seem to Lave been
written under the prevailing excite
ment, are in strong contrast with the
previous gloomy reports.
The dust taken out of Grcory't mines
alone, it ii estimated, amounts to $20,
000.
Denver City was almost depopulated,
by the people leaving for the moun
tains. Provisions continued scarce at the
mines.
Twenty thousand dollars were offered
for claims.
Subsequent arrivals will determine the
certuinty of this information but none of
the account! received ditler in their tenor.
Rich specimens of gold have been also
received by this arrival.
This community is intensely excited in
consequence.

Republican Prjss is boasting that New
England is "a unit" In opposition to tht

representative is elected from that region
to Congress. Tine; but not so novel at
true. New England was a unit in 1801,
when JrrrERSON was elected President;
New England then voting in a body
gainit him ; and, again in 182.9, when
Gen. Jackson was elected; New England
then, nguin, voting unanimously against
the Democracy. Now she is a "unit" in
support of Abolitionism, and the very men
who boast of this unity, profane the
names of Jackson and JsrrERsoN wiih the
mockery of their praise.
How is it. Some of the oppcs!'.;.'- "
pers talk about the strength of the Amc-icnn-Republican
party of this State, while
the convention of tho 8th inst. nominated

How is it. Is it American-Republican

or are they both identical or both distinct,
and if the latter, which is tho Simon pure.
