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..

RUSSIA AND TURILEY.--The Eastern difficulty is
within a few days of being settled, either for peace
or war. 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immediately withdrawn from the Principalities, and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.

Syria is in a very disorganized state. The Chris

ITALT.—The Roman police had discovered that
the Chief of the Secret Societies in the Roman States

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.

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.

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.
CHOLERA AT Eaufriimmo.—A physician recent

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.
