lections—lists recorded in the royal archives of the Upper House. From these lists results the proof that from -1825 to 1837 the present Earl of Stirling, always recognized in his rights, voted during a pe riod of twelve years as a Peer of Scotland, without effective protest. !And also that he was not only recognized by his peers and themagistrates and courts ot Edinburgh, but that the Lord Chancellor Lyndhurst, Earl Grey, the Prime Minister, the Lords of the Committee of Council, in the King's name, corresponded officially with the Earl of Stirling and addressed him by his title. John L. Hayes, Esq., counsel for Lord Stirling, states that in an interview had with the Hon. R. J. Walker, late Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Wal ker said that, prior to his departure for Europe, he had, at the request of Lord Stirling, examined the case, and although his multiplied engagements pre vented his having been profesianally employed as counsel, an undoubted conviction, which was con firmed by conversation relative to the conversation relative to tike case with several distinguished per sons, during his late visit to England and Scotland, of the heirship, identity, and legal rights orLord Stirling. I, myself, have bad an interview with Mr. Wal ker, and he informs me that Mr. Hayes' statement is true and correct.. As further deyelopements take place you aha be fire[ informed of them.

The public generally look on the state of affairs as less satisfactory. The present position of the question stands thus: Until the 10th or 12th of August, the Czar's final answer to the ultimatum of the four powers, (Aus. tria, France, England and Prussia,) cannot be known. If he accepts that ultimatum, his troops must be immediately withdrawn from the Principalities, and the Conference at Vienna pursuing its arrangement, will conclude a Treaty to protect Turkey in all time •coming. If the Czar refuses the ultimatum of the four powers, or evades a reply (which will be considered equivalent to refusing it,) the - Allied fleets will be ordered to the Bosphorus, if not fur ther, and active measures will be taken by France and England to maintain the integrity of their ally. The question, therefore, is on the point of solu tion for peace or war. The choice rests solely and wholly in the penonal will of the Emperor Nicho las. Until the 10th or 12th of August, therefore we must totally disregard all rumors either favor able or unfavorable. No one but Nicholas himself can know what his intentions are, and the multi tude of statements telegraphed from Vienna, Paris and elsewhere, are for the mere purpose of influen cing the -markets. At the same time, it is right to state that the conduct of the Russian Generals in the Prin. cipulities, would indicate an intention to main tam permanent possession, and nothing has trans pired elsewhere to show that Mania intends to re tract, The journals of Frankfort of the 30th, say that Austria intends not only.to demand reparation from the United States, for tae Smyrna affair, but insists that the Porte shall immediately procure the extra dition of Koszta. St. Petersburg letters say that when the Czar heard of the Koszta affair, he advised Austria to settle it as easily as possible, and do anything rather than give the United States a pretext for interfer ing in the affairs of Europe. The state of affairs at Constantinople and in the Principalities remain unchanged. Only 6000 Rus sians will remain in Moldavia, the bull: of the army being advanced into Wallachia. Duke Constantine, the Czar's son, Grand Admi ral of the Russian fleet, bad arrived at Opessa, and proceeded to Sebastopol to review the squadron. The Russians are tortifying Jassy and Bucharest Syria is in a very disorganized state. The Chris tians were leaving Antioch and Aleppo for the coast. At Laodicea a Turkish mob had attempte'd the life of the Russian Consul. Druses and oth.er moun taineers were arming. In other parts of the Turk ish empire great confusion and disorder prevailed. Cholera is on the increase in Persia, and advan. sing toward Tabreez. The plague had broken out at Khordseen. GREAT BRITAIR.-ID the House of Commons, Lord John Russell statel the intentions of the Gov ernment in regard to Jamaica. The principal fea ture of the plan is, That England guarantees .£550,- 000 sterling to adjust the difficulties, and appoints Sir Henry Barclay, Governor. Parliament is expected to be prorogued on the 18th or 20th of August. The Black Swan has been singing at Liverpool. Lieut. Maury met a highly respectable company of Liverpool merchants on the sth inst., and ex plained his wind and current theory. His observa tions were respectfully acd apparently cordially re ceived. The Mayor presided, En/Nor..—The Turkish question alone occupies public attention—Government taking precautions to keep the public mind tranquil on all matters.— M. the Russian Minister, having asked from the Government an explanation of an anti- Russian article in the Constitutionel, received for answer that the Moniteur alone expressed the opin ions of the Cabinet. Fifty-two French field officers .were on board the steamer Ajaccib to enter the Turkish service. An immense loan of 400,0000,000 francs is seri ously entertained, to extend Paris beyond its pres ent limits, and to erect market places and other pub lic works designed by the Emperor. SPAIN.—The Minister from Mexico had arrived at Madrid. ITALT.—The Roman police had discovered that the Chief of the Secret Societies in the Roman States was Aurelio Saffi, the Triumvir. The principal members of these societies—all belonging to the higher classes—had fled. Severe sentences had been passed at Venice on numerous persons found with arms upon them. DaNmerts..--The cholera continued its ravages at Copenhagen. The total number of cases, at the latest dates, was 4700, of which 2500 had proved fatal. THE LATErr.—The London Globe indicates the probable course of events if the Czar rejects the proposition of the four Powers:—No actual attack on the Russians will ensue; the allied fleets will merely take up positions under the walls of Con stantinople; negotiations will be resumed; three months may elapse before they are completed, and war this year will then be impossible, and the whole winter will be available to discuss matters. This, doubtless, is only an ingenious guess. The morn ing mail brings no additional facts. OnEamtv, 0., July 28th, 1853. lionarets. Mu ADE S IN Oaro.—Last Wednesda evening a most revolting murder was committed about three miles east of this place. The facts as far as I can learn are as follows : 'A man named Fullman, a quarrelsome character, had basely slan dered a i.diss Barber and another young lady. The brother of Miss Barber and a Mr. Lovell, the lover of the other slandered girl, took the matter up.— Yesterday Morning they went to Fullman , s to talk the matter over. tie repulsed them with tearful threats, and became desperately enraged. They left him and returned to their work. After supper last evening, one of the parties proposed that they take their rifles and go over to Fullman , s and fright en him. Acting in accordance with the proposal, they took their guns (a rifle and a shot-gun,) and started. On arriving they found Fullman and his wile in a field, raking hay. Lovell advanced to him and said: " Well, Pve come to have it out! " Fullman seized a pitchfork and made a desperate plunge at him— his wife clinging to him shrieking and endeavoring to prevent his striking Lowell.— He succeeded in wounding him in three places with the fork. Enraged beyond control at this, Lovell fired his piece—missing F. and lodging the ball in his wife's head, wounding her dangerously—per haps mortally. He then handed the empty gun to Barber to reload, took the loaded gun and started for home—Fullman following with his pitch fork.— After going some distance, Lovell turned round ex claiming" D—n me if I don't shoot you anyhow." He fired and Fuliman being but two feet from him, received the whole charge in his sidetearing him in a horrible manner and killing him almost instant ly. He leave a family of three small children. The murderers were immediately arrested. They ap pear cool and self possessednot seeming to real ize their terrible situation, or the horrible tragedy they have enacted. Barber thinks he will escape. They are both young men, The deceased had the name of being a troublesome man. • Tao HORRORS or SHIPWRECK.--Capt. Young and the only known survivors, ten in number—of the ill fated bark Argyle, from Bristol to Quebec, laden with iron, before reported as having founder ed at sea, arrived at Quebec the sth inst. Their sufferings have been dreadful. It appers they were nine days in one of the ship's boats, driftirig about on the ocean, and that six oi, base days were pas sed without food or water-during which time sev eral of the men in the boat died o exhaustion and hunger. Of the survivors, two aie•females—one of whom is an old lady, turned, we should say of 50, who, too add to her sufferings, was doomed to see her son, a fine strong young man of 28 years old, die of hunger by her side. The other female is a young woman—and strange to say, both these fe. males were exposed to the same privations that the:men were, and yet they lived through them.— There were twenty-five persons on board the Argyle including three passengers, viz a the yonng woman, the old lady and heison, all of whom betook them selves to two of the ship's boats ; one 01 which has not since been heardof; and it is feared that but nine of to 25 have. tem left to tell the lad tale. Mortality in New York. The New York Herald, of Thursday, has the fol lowing record of deaths in that city, which in the absence of any epidemic, is truly frightful to con. template: One hundred and twenty-one men, seventy-two women, two hundred anti twenty-six boys, and one hundred and sixty-six girls—making , a total:of five hundred and eighty-five persons—died in this city during the week which ended on Saturday. This shows an increase of fourteen cases upon the aggre gate mortality of the foregoing seven days, which was considered as being very high. There is no epidemic, and the character of the prevailing disease remains unaltered, as the pre-disposing causes—eat ing unripe fruit, crowded lodging horses, and nox ious exhalations from sundry collections of filth— still continue unchecked and unabated. The over powering heat oflhe last two days has swelled the catalogue fearfully; but the record will not show the gross number .of deaths from sun stroke until next Saturday. Forty-eight adults died of diarrhrea, thirty-five of dysentery, forty-eight of consumption, twenty-six of the various levers, one of Chagre fe ver, and thirty-five of inflammatory diseases. Of violent and accidental deaths, we had two cases of suicide, four of drowning, three killed by sudden fractures of the limbs, and fifteen by sun-stroke; eighty-six children died of cholera intantum, thirty five of convulsions, thirty-one of dropsy in the head nine of small pox, and thirty-five of marasmus.— Two hundred and nine of the entire number were under one year of age, and three hundred and sev enty-seven had not attained to ten. Two hundred and sixty-nine persons died in the five up town wards, and eighty-five.in the five down town wards. Exciting News from Mexico. Highly Important from El Paeo—A Californian Im prisoned—The Jail attacked by Americana—The Mexican Troops Firing upon them—The District Attorney Killed—lntense Excitement. The New Orleans Picayune has received advices from El Paso, Mexico, to the 22d of July, which re port the existence of great excitement in conse quence of a disturbance between a party of Ameri cans and Mexicans at that place. It appears that an American who had recently re turned from California, Alas seized by the Mexiaans, tbr some alledged offence, and cast into prison; on hearing of which circumstance, a party of his friends (also Americans) commenced an attack upon the jail for the purpose of effecting his liberation and rescue. A guard of Mexican troops, however, soon came up, and witnessing the action of the Americans, fired upon them, causing the latter to beat a partial retreat. The fight was afterwards renewed, and the District Attoruey of El Paso county, Texas, who was present, killed. One person was also severely wounded. What the final result of the affair would be was not known, but tho Mexican forces were armed and drilling near the American town of Paso, which was in great danger.—N. Y. Express. IEI Paso, as everybody knows, is on the Mexican aide of the Rio Grande. DISCONTENT IN CANADA.—The Montreal Chron icle argues that there can be no such thing as a con tented colclny. Self government or independence is necessary, it holds, to give satisfaction. We quute: 'ln this colony, a lew years ago, the French pop ulation were dissatisfied. All poser belonged to England and a few pet colonists. The provincial assembly was composed principally of persons who could only legislate upon their o n grievances.-- Public improvements were lost •sight of, immigra tion interfered with, and the public education ne glected in view of these grievances. All these, af ter much expenditure of fustian were ultimately summed up in the celebrated ninety-two resolutions, an appeal was had to arms, and a deleat, equivalent, as it has temporarily turned to a triumph, was the consequence. But of what avail in the way of producing contentment has been the result of plac ing the government of this country entirely in the hands of the priesthood of Lower Canada? As suredly it has been 'of no avail whatever. It has only had the effect of making the previous contents, the English inhabitants of the province, noncontents. It produced the annexation manifesto. 1t has led to a cry for the Union of all the provinces. The province is as intemperate, as unruly, as dissatisfied as before, the only difference being that the whole English population is aroused against 'nos institu tions notr•e langue et nos lois,' and perceives in the home government a defender of the Catholic faith Canticle. This is to be regretted. But how can it be remedied 1 A union of all the provinces would assuredly annihilate French supremacy, it might not make the provinces more British. 'Canada is becoming powerful, and will be free. She insists upon liberty of speech, and will toss from her those little men now in authority, who fancy they can withhold it from her. The Mel bourne Argus writes in theearne strain for Austral ian Independnece." ARREST OF A FUGITIVE SLAVE AT CINCINNATI. —CrriclNNArr, August 16.—A man named George McQuery alias Wash, was brought to this city last night from Piqua, claimed by Henry Mills, of Ken tucky, as a fugitive slave. The colored people gathered in large numbers round, the Galt House, where the fugitive was guarded by the U. States Marshal and a posse of police, and exhibited much feeling, but dispersed upon being assured that ihe prisoner should have trial to-dby. This morning the fugitive was brought before Judge McLean, in the United States Court, where the case was heard and adjourned till to-morrow. The evidence was decidedly in favor of the claim of ,Mr. Mills, the fugitive having confessed being his slave. The attorneys for the defence seem to rely upon the unconstitutionality of the law. I.IJ - The payments into the New York Sub-Treas ury are said to be enormous. According to the la test accounts, the balance on hand was over 0,- 500,000. It is calculated that before the month ex pires, it will be equal to the whole amount 01 ape cierin the New York Banks. The New York Ex press, alluding to the subject says: These immense importations are exciting much attention in financial circles. The Government, however, are doing all they can to alleviate the pressure of the Treasury hoard on the commerce or the country, as we perceive by the circular ot the Secretary of the Treasury that he proposes to ten ders of Federal stock of 1867 and 1868, to the amount of $5,000,000, between the present time and the first of December next, which are to be li quale?ed and redeemed with the addition ot 2 per ced. premium. The demand for Federal stocks for banking purposes and.ror Government redemp tion wilt cause all now held in Europe to be sent to this country, and thus open a new demand for other American stocks. COUNTERFEIT /NSYRANCE COMPANI.—Two men named H. M. Reed and A. J. Ward, lately opened an office in Pittsburg, purporting to be an agency of the the "Protection, Fire and Marine Insurance Company of Boston." They represented the capi tal of the corporation to be $400,000, with a surplus fund of $250,000. Cads were published giving a list of officers, and quite a considerable amount of money was received in the shape of premiums for insurance on property in Pittsburg. Inquiry having been made in Boston on the subject, the Pittsburg' ers have just become aware that the whole concern is bogus. The fellows have both disappeared from that vicinity. irr Wm. V. Davis, Esq., formerly of this place, has been selected Principal of the Lancrster High School. Mr. Davis was long known as one of the most successful teachers of the higher branches among us, and none in this community can doubt his fitness for the position he has been chosen to fill. Cliambersburg Repository. • A Win Moys.—A meeting of the colored peo ple of Western Peensylvania contemplating emi grating to Liberia, in Africa, was held at Hollidays burg on the 28th ult. Those present formed them selves into an association to be styled the "Litieria Enterprise Company," whose object is to emigrate to Liberia, and engage in manufacturing, mercan tile, and agricultural pursuits. They also appoint ed agents to transact their business, voted to ask a further loan from the Colonization Society, and re solved to use every possible exertion to be ready to sail on the 10th of Nouember next. They adjour ned to re-assemble on the first Tuesday of October, to select permanent officers. A STUPENDOUS Western Pennsylva nia company - have set up a claim to the Western Reserve of Ohio, under a grant from Connecticut, alleged to have been made after the year 1762, when Charles 2d granted to that colony a patent for the Reserve. In 1795, it will be remembered, she sold the Riserve to another company, relinquishing all claims to jurisdiction over the territory to the Uni ted States, in 1800. These Pennsylvania parties, we learn from the Washington Star, have applied to the General Land office to make to them patents for all the Reserve! The officer replied, we learn from parties interested in the ":speculaton, " that the go vernment never having had a claim to or propietor ship over that territory they cannot entertain the application: and that the State of Connecticut is the party to whom the Pennsylvania company must look for redress, if they really have rights in volved in the case.

THOMPSON. prospectus of the " Washington I_ Sentinel." I propose to publish in the city of Washington, in September, a political newspaper, under the name of the Wastmoron SENTINEL. In doing so it is proper I should make known the principles it will maintain and the policy it will ad vocate. It will support cordially and earnestly the prin ciples of the Democratic Republican party of the United States. It does not propose to be the organ o. any department of the Government, except in so far as independent maintenance of the doctrines of that party may,represent its opinions and express its views. It will not be ambitious to commend itself to the people by a blind flattery of their rulers. It will seek public support by the bold avowal of the sen timents which are common to the genuine Democ racy of the Union, and by the condemnation of all such as may conflict with them, from whatever quarter they may come. It will seek to be (and it will. endeavor to deserve the title) the organ of the Democratic Party of the United States. The Sentinel will maintain a fundamental truth of that great party, that the States formed the Uni on beween them by the ratification of the Consti tution as a compact, by which also they created the Federal Government, and delegated to it, as their common agent, the powers expressly specified in it, with an explicit reservation of all others to the States, or to their separate governments. The ex ercise of any powers beyond those thus delegated is, therefore, a usurpation of the reserved authority of the States by the agent of their own creation. The Sentinel will uphold and defend the Union upon the basis of therights of the States under the Constitution; and thus by sedulously guarding the latter, it will the more effectually strengthen and perpetuate the former. JOHN RAUB, JACOB NEFF. With regard to the exercise of the powers of the Federal Government, the Sentinel will take as the principles of its action that Congress shall exercise no power which has not been delegated by the Con stitution, according to a strict and lair interpreta tion of its language and spirit; and I hat it shall not seek to attain indirectly an object through the exer cise of constitutional power, for the direct attain ment of which it has no delegation of power. In other words, all powers exercised must be clearly granted, and all granted powers must be used for no purpose except such as is clearly intended by the Constitution. In respect to the internal administration of the Government the Sentinel will sustain the settled policy of the Democratic Party. It will labor to inculcate the cardinal doctrine of Democratic in- - - ternal policy; thnt this Government will best pro mote the freedom and prosperity of the people of the States by being less ambitious to exercise pow and more anxious to preserve liberty, and by leav ing to the individual States the management of all their domestic concerns, while it contents itself with guarding the Confederacy (*tom external vio lence, and directing the foreign policy of the coun try to the promotion of the common interests and defence of the common rights and honor of the States composing it. The Sentinel will advocate such a progressive foreign policy as will suit itself to the exigencies and correspond with the expanding interests of the country. That policy should be energetic and de cided; but should temper firmness with liberality, and make its highest ends consist with the strictest principles of justice. The real interests of the country, upon each occasion demanding attention, will , be its guide in the course the Sentinel will pursue. The national policy of the world in this age is essentially aggressive. In the growing sense of weakness of some of the nations of the Old World, and the arnbitiQus restlessness of others, a com mon motive to colonial extension has developed itself. Our settled determination to repel interference from abroad with our own domestic concerns will prompt us to avoid it in the affairs of other coun tiles, unless, by their foreign or colonial policy, our peace shouid be threatened, our security en dangered, or our interests invaded. For when the selfish interests of other nations prompt a foreign or colonial policy, which infringes upon our rights and places in the pathway of our commerce a dan gerous and unfriendly rival, such a policy must be resisted :by remonstrance, and, if need be, by war. Our foreign policy should, indeed, be defensive; but to be properly defensive, it must sometimes be apparently aggrefsive. Our Administration should be vigilant, watchful, and energetic. The world is full of important movements, commercial and po. lineal, deeply concerning American trade and American power. It is time we had an American foreign policy. We must have it. We cannot avoid it if we would. We have larger interests, and a greater stake in the world and its destiny, than ev ery other people. We occupy the best portion of a continent, with no neighbors but a colony, and a worn out, anarch,al despotism. We are the only people whose own Lnd, without colonial depen dencies, is washed by the two great oceans of the world. Our agricultural productions are more va ried and more essential to civilized life and to hu man progress, our mineral and manufacturing re sources more vast, our facilities and capacity for internal and foreign commerce more extended, than those of any other people living under one govern ment. A continent, to a great extent unexplored and exhaustless in its yet hidden wealth, is at our feet. European trade seeks the great East through avenues which are at our doors, or must be made through our own limits. Europe, Asia, Africa and the Isles of the sea, lying all around us, look to us as the rising Power through the agency of whose example and ever widening and extending though peaceful influences the blessings of liberty, civili zation, and religion, are destined to triumph over barbairism and superstition of the millions of the world. And shall such a people refuse to lay hold upon their destiny and act upon the high mission to which it is called—a mission so full of hope, though so laden with responsibility, which, if prop erly directed, must make our confederacy the har binger of peace to the world as well as the peace ful arbiter of its destiny? The Sentinel will therefore advocate a bold and earnest foreignpolicy, such as the condition of the country demands; but it will advocate it under the flag of the country ; nowhere else. Its foreign pol icy must be consistent with the spotless himor and unimpeachable good faith of the Country. To be respectable at home and abroad, and to be great in the eyes of the world, it must ask for nothing but what is right, and to submit to nothing that is wrong. It must be liberal and magnanimous to the rights of others, and firm and immoveable in insist ing on its own. It must in line, be true to its.own interest, rights, and honor; it cannot then be false to those of other nations. Such, then, is the chart by which we shall be guided. Independant and free, we shall endeavor go be honest and truthful. The true friends of tllemocratic principles, we shall cordially support and defend. Its enemies in thefie/ds or in ambush we shall oppose and on all proper occasions de notince. To our future brethren of the press we extend the hand - of friendly greeting. The Sentinel is the rival of no press of its own party, the personal en emy of none of the other. The present Democratic Administration has our best wishes for its success in the establishment of the great principles upon which it came into pow er; and in its honest labors to attain such an end t will find the Sentinel its friend and coadjutor. i TERMS: For the Daily paper, slo'a year in ad vance.
