which took place at Rome in 1846, )vritten by Ed

The scene of the transactions which it narrates, is
Rome and its neighborhood. The Sanfed'sti were
a secret society of Jesuits, who plotted every con

of all his contemporariee—that's certain.
An Eloquent Extract.
Few people will deny that Kossuth is one of the
greatest orators or the day., The following extract
from his late speech in London is really fine. Fancy
suchianguage to be spoken to his own people, in
their own tongue, and you can imagine the effect it
would naturally produce
Why, my lord, has all this occurred to me on
account of the little English I know,
or in compli
ment of the foreign pronunciation which clashingly
hurts the hearing of Englishmen I It is that I touch
ed a chord to which there is a thrilling echo lathe
breast of every honest man. It is because my theme
was liberty, the very word of which is enough to
to electrify , a man's heart and to bring tears of joy
or tears of compassion to his eyes. Itwas because
I spoke of my country's virtues ano of eras unmer
ited misfortune, and held up its bleeding image to
the world--a theme which cannot fail to move man's
heart, to make:liis blood boil up with execrations
against tyrants and with hatred toinjustice and des
potism—a theme sad enough to make the etonesin
the street cry out for compassion and for sympathy.
[Cheers.] The best thanks, in my opinion, are the
pledge which I give yon in the name of my belov
ed people, that abiding our time, we will endure
sufferings, persecution, oppression, but we will not
despair. [Cheers.] No adversities shall bend oar
resolution, toliave our country restored to its na
tional rights, and ant it once more independent and
free. Tyrants may rage in blind fury and decimate
the patriots of Hungary; still the day of redress
and• retribution shall come. Yes, my lord, the
hangman's rope may stifle the curse wldch ismixed
with the dying victim's last prayer, but no power
on earth can prevent the curse to fall down on the
oppressor's head, [cheers,l because there is a God
in heaven and there will be justice on earth. [cheers]
The . blood from the patriot's heart, spilt at the ty
rant's command, may deluge the eoil of our father
land, and dogs may lick up what there was mortal
in that blood, but no power on earth can prevent
its immortal atoms to mount to Almighty God—like
as the blood ofAbel did mount. [Cheers,) The bod
ies of martyrs may rot in the cold grave, a meat for
worms;but their immortal spirits will gather roundthe
throne of the eternal, praying for justice to their
down-trodden native land; and there they stand
and their name is legion. [Cheers.] . I see them
with the eyes of my soul. (Hero M. Kossuth look
ed up to ][eaten.) The prisons may bo filled with
new victims day by day, till thieves and felons have
to be amnestied to get a place for persecuted pa
triots. Exiles may be over the wide world, some
of them corrupted by long distress, others surround
ed hydurking spies ; and the people at home, those
millions of unnamed demigods with immortal souls
and with sacred aspirations in their souls—they may
drag silently their chains, with no tears more in
their eyes, its source being outwept—with no curse
on their lips to be dressed in words, for 'tie too deep.
[Chew , .] There is no power on earth to make a
man love his tyrant and hate his native land—no
power on earth to make Hungary and Italy not to
detest and to abhor the bloody, perjurious house
of-Austria. [Loud cheers.] With what truth be
lore our eyes, what contemptable mountebankery
it is to see the despots and their helpmates assu
ming that were it not for some so called conspira
tors Italy would love Austrian tyranny, and Hun
gary would get reconciled to its unutterable suffer
ings and wrongs. ' Conspirators ! But in the name
of all that is sacred to man, there oppressors there
they are the conspirators against God, against hu
manity, against the peace of the world. It is they
who make Europe boil like a volcano, and the con
tinent quake to the very foundation of society! I
beseech you but to read the declarationof indepen
dence of Hungary. I will let it be reprinted, pro
vided it be lawful in England to print it that it may
be recalled to the memory of the world. [Laughter
and cheers.] I beseech you to read it, and then
I would like to see who in the face of high Heaven
will call Francis Joseph illustrious youth, the
hope of his people "—the hope of his people ! oh,
Almighty God ! [cheers] and we will see the un
corrupted and incorruptible, opinion shall call a
traitor and a conspirator. [Cheers.] That con
spiracy they shall never arrest. I for one declare,
in the face ofhigh heaven, thatenjoying your coun
try's protection, I certainly desire to respect scru
pulously your country's laws, but so long as there
is life in mu, I will love freedom, I will remain
faithful to my fatherland, add, never despairing of
its future, will continue to watch with intense soli
tude the electric spark of opportunity [cheers] from
the hands of bountiful Providence ' to catch from it
the sacred flame of emancipation from its lawless
oppression which my country is suffering. [Loud
cheers.)
/LITEHESTING LEGAL Demsrotr. — A case has been
recently decided in the U. S. District Court at Rich
mond before Chief Justice Taney and Judge Haly
burton, which involves questions important perhaps
to the commercial community.
The case turned mainly upon the legal effect o
letters written by the creditor to the debtor, urging
the payment'ot a negotiable note, and asking the
debtor to" remit the money " and " forward the
amount of the note."
Upon the alleged faith of these letters, the debtor
deposited the money in Bank notes, in the mail, in
a letter addressed to the creditor in Baltimore; the
letter was lost and never came to the hands of the
creditor.
The debtor, R. D. Dun of Essex county, Virginia,
had executed his note to the Plaintiffs, Selmas
Son, of Baltimore, for about $7OO, payable at the
Farmers> Bank oeVirginia. Before it fell due ' Dun,
the defendant, visited Baltimore, asked that his
note might be ordered back front Richmond (wither
it had been sent for collection) to Baltimore, and
kept there, promising to pay it in whole or part,
before leaving. He failing to do this, the plaintiffs
wrote him urgently for payment. He replied, sta
ting that he had been to Richmond at the time the
note fell due to pay it, but could not find it, and
asking where it was. To this the plaintiffs> replied
—" your note is here, forward the amount and we
will send your note to you."
The defendant also proved that the merchants in
Essex were in the habit of remitting money to Bal
more by mail.
The plaintiff's counsel relied on a decision of the
Courts of Appeals of Virginia, reported in 3 Grat
ton's Reports, in which it was held, in a very sim
ilar case, thatn o proof of such local custom could
be given to affect the creditor, and that a letter di
recting the debtor " to remit the money did not au
thorize its transmission by mail." .
Chief Justice Taney, in the present case, disap
proved of that decision, and instructed the Jury
that evidence might be given of such custom, and
was proper, it being somewhat a question of com
mercial usage ; that the Jury might, if they pleas
ed, infer authority to remit by mail in thiercase, that
it the creditor used language calculated to misleld
the debtor, it was his own risk ; and that if the de
fendant Dun might reasonably have supposed from
the circumstances, that the plaintiffs intended to
authorise transmission by mail, then the Jury would
be justified in finding a verdict for the defendant.
The Jury returned a verdict for the defendant.
The cause was argued by Griowald and Celia
borne for the plaintiffs, and Patton and Patton, jr.,
for the defendant.
Tao WHEAT Coop —We notice in . several of
our exchange papers of the adjoining and interior
counties of this State, statements of the depreda
tions committed by the Hessian fly upon the wheat
crop in those counties, with the remark, in some
cases, that the crop would not, in consequence, be
more than a half or a third of an average yield.—
As these statements are annually made at this sea
.son, without much cause, we doubted the general
correctness of them, from the fact that heretofore
these apprehensions of injury were rarely if ever
realized. And at this writing we doubt them more
than before, inasmuch as on a trip up the railroad
to Reading, last week, and thence into the interior
of Berks county, we could not ascertain or perceive
that the attacks of the fly would endanger the
abundant yield promised in every direction. We
presume, when harvest times comes round—and it
is almost here now—that the ravages of this ene
my of wheat fields, will make no more impression
upon the crop of the country,than did the Hessians
themselves a good many years ago, upon the coun
try itself.—Germantmun Telegraph.
DESTRUCTION AT Gn.issuoPrEss.—A gentleman
from Somerville, in Lower Makefield township, in
forms us that the graisboppers are very destructive
in that vicinity. The fields are crowded with them
to such an extent, that a person passing over them
drives the insects up before him in perfect clouds.
Several fields that our informant had seen, were al
most entirely stripped of their crops of clover. He
also states that he had the curiosity to count the
number of the insects on a rail in the fence. He
found it to contain between two and three hundred!
On another rail, he presumed there were at least
jive hundred! If there should come a dry spell, and
they ince,ase as they usually do at such times,
fears are entertained that they will become as de
structive as the locusts of Egypt.—Doylestown Dem
SENTENCE OF DIATR COMMUTED.—President
Pierce has commuted the sentence of death passed
by a court martial at Fort Hamilton, N. Y., upon
Cot lioral John White, for striking and attempting
td take the life of Major Pemberton, to solitary
confinement on bread and water for the period of
thirty days, and thereafter to confinement at hard
labor, with a ball and chain, for the remainder of
the term of his enlistment, and to suspension of
pay and allowances; except the necessary clot ing
and subsistence.
-- -----
THE CROPS AROUND NEW Yong.—The Tribune
says: Spring has been very wet thus far in that
quarter, and the farmers are generally behind their
work, but the crops promise well. Grass never
was better at this season, and we consider a good
yield of Hay already assured. Wheat (little sown)
Is quite thrifty; Corn comes up rank and thrifty
and Potates (extensively planted.) also promise
well. The woods and meadows never looked more
inviting.
MORE GOLD.—The steamship El Dorado, from
Aspinwall, arrived at New York on Wednesday,
bringing 250 passengers from California, and.l,ooo

Ficix ENGLAVIrTO .Caufe fr Lionstrrso.—A let
ter from Genoa to the Newark Daily Advertiser
states th'at a company of Englishmen have contract
ed for building a line of telegraph from London to
the East Indies and Canton. The work, it is said,
has actually begun, being carried -from London to
Genoa. The following extract from the letter gives
distances between the chief European points, and
speaks confidently of the entire success of the un-'
dertaking, unlesi prevented by another war
" The great work is .'already commenced, and
the line has been actually made from London to
this.city„, The government of this country has also '
just entered into a contract with Mr. John Brett,
who represents a large company of British capital
ista—the same which carried the line across the
British channel—fur carrying it on from the main
and at Spezzia to the farther extremity of the Island
of Sardinia, in the midst of the Mediterranean; and
' France will see that it is continued thence to the
province of Algiers, on the coast of Africa. The
interest that England hes in its continuance to her
rich possessions in the East is obvious enough with
out specification. •
"The company has engaged to have the line
from Spezzia to the Island completed within eigh
teen months at its own risk and expense, and the
. government gives it a monopoly for fifty years,
when it will become the property of the State. The
cost is estimated at $600,000. It it provided,
among the details of the contract, that the govern
ment shall have the free use of the line for its de
spatches, and a certain small interest in the income
of the business, for which it guarantees to the com
pany an interest of five per cent., on the capital or
cost of the work. The price of all despatches is
fixed atlifty cents for twenty words.
" The whole line from Spezzia, the nearest point
of the main land, to the termination of the island,
port of Cagliaria, will be 414 miles, of which 83
will be under water and 361 over land, (including
the intermediate French island of Corsica,) thus;
MILES.
From Spezzia to Corsica,
Across Corsica,
/cross the Straits of Bonitacio,
Across Island of Sardinia,
Total 414
" Thus you see that within eighteen months we
are to have the benefit of a telegraphic line from
London to the very bosom of the Mediterranean,—
France, it is understood, will bear het share in the
work on the Island of Corsica. The distance be
tween Constantinople, Algiers, Egypt, the Islands
of the Sea, distant India and China, and the seats
Of European civilization and commerce, for all
purposes of correspondence, will thus be greatly
diminished, which will be a great achievement,
even if the projected work Thou d go no further.—
But it will not stop there, unless the course of
things is unfortunately changed by war."
MURDER BY A BAPTIST BIIEACHER.—The follow
ing is copied from the Raleigh (N. C.) Register ; a
secular journal. It is a horrible transaction. Let
ters were received here last week from Hyde, Tyr
rell, and Beaulort counties, stating that Washington
Carroway, a citizen ot Hyde county some filty years
of age, and many years a Baptist preacher, lately,
on some frivolous pretext, knocked his wile down
with a chair and then seized a large stick and con
tinuedto beat her, when Lassiter, who was board
ing in
. the house, interfered to prevent her being
murdered. Whereupon Carroway took his gun to
shoot Lassiter; but he disarmed him and left the
house. A few days afterwards, Lassiter chanced to
go by the house, which stood near the public road,
when Carroway, seeing him pass, took his gun and
ran through his field to cut him off, and overtaking
him in the savannah, shot him dead; then took his
victim and carried him some half a mile into the
mud, and stamped him below the surface of the
mud, covered him over with brush, then ran off,
made his escape from the country, and eluded pur
suit. He has been married three times, and has
children by each marriage, and horrible to tell, cur
cumstances have now come out which strongly in
dicate that both of his deceased wives came to their
deaths by his hands.
HYRRAULIC CEMENT.—We learn from the Jersey
Shore Republican that R. Knox & Co., having se
cured a contract for furnishing 80,000 bushels of
cement( for the Sunbury and Erie railroad, between
this place and Sunbury,' have established a large
manufactory, about one mile below that place.—
They have .kour kilns, capable of turning out 500
bushels 'of ta - e burned argillaceous and -tiliceoifs
stone of which the cement is made, and, is
obtained in inexhaustible quantities near place
of manufacture. A steam engine of twenty-horse
power, driVing three run of burrs, is used for grind
ing the ealcined stone, making it as line as flour.
It is then put in barrels or sacks for use. When
properly prepared it is used as mortar in the build
ing of walls or bridge abutments, and either above
or under the water, quickly hardens to the solidity
of shone.. We are glad to learn that the enterpris
ing gentlemen who have undertaken to furnish this
cement, have also secured heavy contracts with the
Williamsport and Elmira Railroad Company.—

A HOG FOR TILE WORLD'S FAIR—The Milwaii
kie Daily Sentinel says, a monster hog, weighing
eleven hundred and nine pounds, was lately shipped
on board the steamer Arctic, on his way to the
WorldtsPFair at New York. He was purchased by
Messrs. R. Bugg 4. 8.. Stewart, of Niagara county,
N. Y., for $2OO, from Mr. Hollister B. Thayer, of
Troy, Walworth county, Wis. His actual measure
ment was as follows: Girth behind the shouders,
6 feet 7 inches; extreme length, 9 feet 11 inches.
He was perfectly white, and only twenty months
old. The hind wheels of the wagon were taken
off, when the animal walked off of his own ac
cord on board the boat, and laid down on deck
contented. The owners ate confident of making
him weigh eighteen hundred pounds, when fatted,
live weight. This is one of the specimens Wiscon
sin sends to the World's Fair; it will he hard to
beat.
"THE NORWALK DISASTER.—The Special Com
mittee appointed by the Connecticut Legislature, to
inquire into the cause of the accident at Norwalk,
made their report on Tuesday. They state the
cause to be, primarily, the carelessness of the engi
neer in charge of the train, and the insufficiency of
the signals at that dangerous locality. "The report
is also severe upon the management of this import
ant line, and states that the President is, especally
negligent in tie discharge of the duties devolving
upon him. The committee submitted no bill or
resolution with their report, for the reason that the
Standing-Committee on Railroads design reporting
a general law, in order to avoid similar calamities
, in future.
NEW CHARTER FOll NEW YORK CITE.—The peo
ple of the city of New York on Tuesday decided,
by•a large majority, to accept certain amendments
to their City Charter, which bad previously received
the sanction of their State Legislature. These
amendments were petitioned for by many of the
citizens of New York in order to check the alleged
corruption on the part of the Municipal government,
of which we have recently seen so much complaint
in the newspapers. It is thought that the amend
ments will prove effectual for the purpose contem
plated. The majority in favor of their adoption is
over 33,000.
HERRING TRADE 11 NEW BEl3FORD.—Perhaps
few persona, except those immediately engaged in
the business, are aware of the importance of the
herring trade in this city. The schooner Abbey ar
rived here with 38,000 herrings, being all she could
carry. Several vessels, all from Martha's Vine
yard, have arrived within a few days with great
quantities of this fish. Open boats laden entirely
with herrings frequently run in. The importation
for the last week will probably not fall short of
300,000, and they sell readily at 75 cents to 80
cents per hundred. Large numbers are taken by
the country towns in this vicinity.—New Bedford
Murcury.
THE CRTSTAL PALACE .—The Nee York Journal
of Commerce is very severe upon the Crystal Palace.
It says 'this affair was conceived in fraud, (for all
dishonest speculation is fraud;) it has been carried
through by deception, for no promise ever made by
its managers has been kept; and the show they will
make of the wares and trash, will not half equal
that of the Annual Fair of the American Institute.
We do most sincerely advise all not to be gulled
by the humbug, for it is one too small and contemp•
tible."
ILLINOIS Pasco Coop.—The editor of the Alton
Telegraph says: We have been engaged for some
days past in trying to relieve our trees by picking
off the superabundant fruit, removing overcharged
limbs,&c., and have found it an almost intermina
ble task. In many cases small shoots, less than
one inch in length, are burdened ,with four or five
peaches, and though countless thousands have fal
len or been removed from hlmost every tree, they
are still much too full for perfect safety. Other
fruit is also very abundant in this place.
IMPOUTANT SUIT DECIDED.—The suit instituted
at Pittsburg, by Wm. L. Slicer, of Maryland and
others, heirs of Thos. Cromwell, deceased, to recover
about $2,000,000 worth of property, was concluded
in the U. S. Circuit Court, in that city, on Monday
week. Judge Grier in the charge was decidedly ad
verse to either the law or equity of the claim, and
directed the jury to-bring in a verdict for the defen
dants in the dower, and dismissed the bill in equity.
The trial excited intense interest, both from its mag
nitude and the great array of legal talent.

youth, Age, style, Taste, Beauty
and Fashion.—The seasons of life should be
arranged like those of the year. In the spring of
youth, when all is lovely and gay, then as the
green cover is spread on all the face of smiling ea
ture, in brightness and beauty, so let the dress par
take of the season. Fine taste, as well as fashion,
decrees the necessity of nicely adapted garments
to age, circumstances and seasons. The man
whose head is silvered with age, who feels not the
blood of youth dancing warmly in his veins, should
not run into extremes of dress, nor yet should he
permit his clothing to be so far behind the times as
to render him ridiculous. There is a beco.ning
fashionable dress, suitable for the age and seasons
of life as well as the seasons of the year. You can
be suited in handsome style in clothing that is well
and fashionably made, of good materials that will
fit well and become the figure and season, at the
great Clothing Bazaar of

Dr. Ayer :—ln the month of July last I was at
tacked by a violent diarrhma in the mines of Cali
fbrnia. I ret , reed to San Francisco in hope are,
ceiving benefit from a change of climate and diet.
My dtarrcea ceased, but was followed by a severe
cough—and more soreness. I finally started for
home, but received no benefit from the voyage.—
My cough continued to grow worse, and when I
arrived in New York, I was at once marked by my
acquaintances as a victim of consumption. I must
confess that I saw no sufficient reason Di doubt
what my friends all believed. At this time I com
menced taking your truly invaluable medicine with
little expectation of deriving any benefit from its
use. You would not receive these•lines did I not
regard it my duty to state to the afflicted, through s
you, that my health, in the space of eight months,
is fully restored. I attribute it to the use of your
Cherry Pectoral. Yours truly,

like hope, when my physician brought me a bottle
of your Pectoral." It seemed to afford immedi
ate relief, and now in a few weeks time has relate
red me to sound health. if it will . do for others
whet it has done for me, you are certainly one o.
the benefactors of mankind.
Sincerely wishing you every blessing, I ant
