llniiud Stales. The papers i-eTating to the

believed that, wnli the evacuation of Mex
|eo bv the expeditionary forces, no srrb
jnct for serious dillcreiiees between i' raiico
anil the L'niled Stales would remain.
The expressions of the Idniperor and
people of France warrant a hope that the
trialil ionary friendship bet worn the t,w<>
countries might inlbat ease be renewed and
permanently resiored.
A claim of a citizen of tic l'niled Slates
for indenmitv for spoliations eotnmillod on
the seas bv tic French authorities, in
the exereise of a belligerent power against
iMexieo, has been met by the ( iovermnent
of France with a proposition to defer settle
ment until a mutual convention for the ad
justment of all claims of citizens and sitb
‘jcels of both countries, arising out of the
‘recent wars on this Continent, shall lie
agreed upon by the two countries.--
'Pic suggestion is not deemed unrea
sonaljlb, but it belongs to Congress to
direct the manner in which claims for
iudeinnilv bv foreigners, us well us by cit
izens of the l'niled States, arising out of
the late civil war, shall be adjudicated ami
determined? i have no doubt that thesub
jeet of all such claims will engage your at
tention ala convenient and proper time.
It is a matter of regret llmt no considera
ble advance Ims been made towards an ad
justment of the ditl'ereiiees between the
Ynitcd States and Ureal Britain, arising
out of the depredations upon our national
commerce and other trespasses committed
during mir civil war by .British subjects, in
violation of internaiional law and treaty
obligations. The delay, however, may be
believed t<>- have resulted in no small de
gree from the domestic situation of < > reat
Britain. An entire change of ministry oc
curred in that country during tile lasi ses
sion of Parliament. The attention of the
new ministry was called to the subject at
an earlv dav, and there is some reason to
expect that'it will now lie considered in a
becoming and friendly spirit. The import
ance of an early disposition of the question
cannot be exaggerated. Whatever might
be the wishes of the two < Jovernments, it is
manifest that good-will and friendship be
< tween the two countries cannot be estab
lished until a reciprocity, in the practice of
good faith and neutrality, shall lie resiored
between the respective nations.
On the (Hh of .June last, in violation of
our neutrality laws, a military expedition
and enterprise against the British North
American Colonies was projected and at
tempted to be carried on within the terri
tory and jurisdiction of the l'niled Slates,
‘in obedience to the obligation imposed up
on the Kxecutive by llie Constitution, to
see that the laws are faithfully executed,
all citizens were warned, by proclamation,
against taking part in oraidingsurh unlaw -
. ful proceedings, and the proper civil, mili
tary and naval ollicers were directed to take
ull’neeessarv measures tbr the enforcement
of the laws/ The expedition failed, Imt it
has not been without il-s painful conse
quences, Someof ourcilizens, whoit wasal
leged were engaged in the expedition, were
captured, and have been brought to trial,
as for a capital oll'enee, in the Province ot
Canada. .Judgment and sentence ol death
have been pronounced against some, while
others Inive been ne<piittrd. bully bclie\ -
ingiutiie maxim of government, that
verity of civil punishment for misguided
persons who have engaged in revolutionary
attempts which leave disastrously failed, is
unsound and unwise, such representation
has been made to the British Covernmctit,
in behalf of the convicted persons, as, be
ing sustained by an enlightened and hu
mane judgment, will, it is hoped, induce in
their cases an exorcise of clemency, and a
judicious amnesty to all who were engaged
in the movement. Council has been em
ployed by the Cuvernmeut to defend citi
zens of the l.'nitod States on trial for capi
tal otVences in Canada; and a discontinu
ance of prosecutions which were instituted
in the courts of the United States against
those who took part in the expedition, lias
been directed.
I have regarded the expedition ns not
onlv political in its nature, lull as also in a
grout measure foreign from the United
States in Us cause's, character, ami objects.
The attempt was understood to be made in
sympathy with an insurgent party in Ire
land, and, by striking at a British Province
on this Continent, was designed to aid in
obtaining redress for political grievances
which, it was assumed, the people of Ire
land had suffered at the hands of the Brit
ish Government during a period of several
centuries. The persons engaged in it were
ehiellv natives of that country, some of
whoni had, while others had not, become
citizens of the United States under our gen
eral laws of naturalization. Complaints ol
misgovernmenl in Ireland continually en
gage the attention of the British nation, and
so great an agitation is now prevailing in
Ireland that the British Government have
deemed it necessary to suspend the writ of
/uebeas corpus in that country. These cir
cumstances must necessarily modify the
.opinion which we might otherwise huveen
tertained in regard to an expedition ex
pressly prohibited by our neutrality laws.
So long as those laws remain upon our stat
ute books, they should be faithfully execu
ted, and if they operate harshly, unjustly,
or oppressively, Congress alone can apply
the remedy, by their modification or repeal.
Political and commercial interests of the
United States are not unlikely to be alibct
,ed in some degree by events which are tran
spiring in the eastern regions of Europe,
and the time seems to have come when our
.Gonvernment ought to have a proper diplo
matic representation in Gieece.
This Government has claimed for all
persons not convicted, or accused, or sus
pected of crime, an absolute political right
of self-expatriation, and a choice of new
national allegiance. Most of the Europe
an States have|dissented|from|tlus principle,.

The Meteoric Shower in England.
London—The Scotia brings lull accounts
of the shower of meteors observed in Eng
land and Scotland, on the morning of the
t Ith inst. The display was magnificent,
especially in London, where the skv was
covered with Hashing meteors in such num
bers as almost to defy computation, in
other parts of England the number was
smaller, and at Liverpool astorm prevented
observations; but wherever tho shower
was visible, the most brilliant ellcels ot
color wore produced, and some singular
phenomena attended the course ol the
meteors.
The Tunrx of the loth has the following
account of the display observed in the
neighborhood of Paddington Green:
The liery shower foretold by the science
of America and Europe for the nights of the
KHli and 11th of November of this year, was
seen in full splendor yesterday morning,
between the hours of 12 and 2.
From Paddington Green, a fairly open
position, 207 meteors were counted between
12 ami 12.20, und of these the greater num
ber fell alter 12.20. The next hundred was
counted during the six minutes that suc
ceeded the half hour. Soon after this it be
came impossible for two people to count the
wnolc that were visible from this station,
and doubtless from positions with a purer
atmosphere and a wider horizon, the spec
tacle must have been one of surpassing
splendor. Indeed, from a window at High
gate looking N. N. E. t but with a circum
scribed view, an observer counted 100
meteors, in tin* four minutes between 12.2.2
and Li.tWi, and no less than 200 in the two
minutes between 12.f>7 ami 12.0 U,
As the constellation Leo rose over the
house north of Paddington Green and
cleared itself of lia/.e, the divergence of the
meteor path* from a point within it became
obvious, not merely in tho directions of tin*
streams that shot' from or through the
zenith, but in those that left their phos
phorescent-seeming trails in the sky
towards every point of the compass.
Sometimes these rocket-like lines of light
would glide out like sparks Hying from an
incandescent mass of iron under the blows
of a Titanic hummer, but with the distinc
tive features, lirsl, of those lingering lines
of illuminated haze in their .truck, and sec
ondly, of (heir rarely appearing as if they
originated in the region of the >kv, from
which their courses evidently diverged.
Sometimes tin* meteor was orange and
almost red in its color, whereas the lumin
ous trail seemed almost alwavs, probably
bv contrast with the surrounding lighl.of
a bluish hue. I n one splendid instance the
trail, after having nearly disappeared, to
gether with the roeket-heuu that hail
produced it, became again lit up and visible
coincidently with a sort of resuscitation ot
brightness in the body ofthe meteor. Now
and then a little illuminated puiUlmll would
appear iu the middle of the constellation
Leo, generally more or less elongated or
elliptic in form, as it seemed to be more or
less distant, and at the same time conver
gent from an imaginary point that seemed
about :$ deg. S. by E. ofthe star/7«wi»ui
Leonis; and one, us near as could be esti
mated to such a point, was simply a star
that waxed and waned and disappeared as
011(1 looked at it. Sometimes a minute point
ol light, like a lire-tly, would dart with an
angular, jerking motion and zig zug course
hither and thither, but still us if away from
Luo.
Only about three meteors were seen dur
ing one hour and a half to take a direction
manifestly opposed to that of these diverg
ing multitudes. The meteors winch shot
towards the western horizon seemed more
brilliant and larger in their courses than
those which dropped into the eastern ; in
deed, very few seemed even to reach the
roofs of the houses from behind which Leo
imd arisen. This was possibly only an
elTccT of perspective, or it may have arisen
from the curtailment of the view. As re
gards the long lines of light that lingered
in the paths of the meteors, it seemed that
generally they were more dense and bright
est towards the middle of the visible path ol
the meteor, while thu meteor itself seemed
brightest just befmo its extinction; an
elVect possibly due to an obscuration in the
middle of its courso by matter thrown olf
from it. The meteors seemed also to lose
volooitv as they went, but this might have
been the result of perspective in those pass
ing through the zenith.
One singular feature in these eelcstial fire
works was the rapidity with which the
maximum of frequency came on and went
oil again. About two'o'clock the meteors
seemed to have become as scarce as they
were at twelve, though they continued in
smaller numbers till tiie verge of daybreak.
From half-past twelve ora quarter to one
until about a quarter past or half past one,
tin; heavens seemed veritably alive with
stars rushing m many parts of the sky, in
groups of two or three together or in imme
diate succession on each other, seeming as
though racing over the blue vault, except
that their courses so rapidly diverged.
lion Cave Johnson, of Tennessee.
Thu telegraph announces the death ol
C'uvu Johnson, at his residence Ml Chirks
villo, Tennessee, on Friday lust. Mr. John
son was nearly sevunty-lhtir years of age,
having been born'in Robertson County,
Tenn., January 11, 171)3.
lie was lor many yours one of the most
prominent . and inihiential politicians in
that Stale; was a man ot liberal education,
and a lawyer bv profession. He held for
several years the olUce of Circuit Judge.
In lsiis he became a candidate for C’on

which the opposition to tin* Whigs assumed

laws i the Slate, a portion of the negroes,
or those that were free, were allowed to

negroes their freedom, received just sutii
eient votes to elect him to Congress, the
votes of the negroes deciding the result, lie
remained in Congress through theeulire
administration of Andrew Jackson, He
was subsequently thrown out by the
temporary Whig ascendency, but was
a-uiin elected in 1838, and continued a mem
ber of the House of Representatives until
IS l"), when he was appointed Postmaster
<iLMieral by President Polk. At the close of
Polk l * administration he retired from
politics, and never since participated in its
excitements or contests. Ho accepted, at.
that time, the presidency of the Rank cf
Tennessee, a position which he held till
ISjSI. He took no part in public matters
during the rebellion. Upon the reconstrur
lion of the State, under the provisional
governor rule, he was elected to the State
Senate, but never look his seat, immediate
ly resigning. He was a man ofindustrious
habits, strong prejudices, and was much
given to bitter personal animosities, but
was considered an able statesman, and at
one time wielded great inllueuce at the
national capital.
Butler mul Morrissey
The Montreal Gazette republishes, from a
Wisconsin newspnper, an interesting ac
count, by au eye-witness, of the behavior
of Dr.’ B. F. Butler at Charleston in 18(50,
when that individual did the dirty work of
Toombs and Slidell, und after trying in
vain to secure the nomination of Jeflerson
Davis, assured Ihe Southern secessionists
that, in case ol' a war, he, Butler, and his
followers at the North, would stand by the
South.
“Yet Massachusetts, the foremost State
of the North,” exclaims the Gazette , “de
lights to honor this man—a double traitor;
first, to the Northerners, by whom he was
sent to Charleston, and then to the South
erners, whom he encouraged in their prep
arations for revolt. ® * * A State which
sends such a man to Congress has really no
vantage-ground from which to attnek New
York about its representative prize-fighter

«• The Itaees af Man," by I. W. Bleber
This essay was a dissertation on tho differ
ent races of mankind. The speakers voice
lacked force and modulation, and his
gesticulation needs improvement.
“ Tin'. Tower of the Pulpit,” by Tilglnnun
|)cer. The address was well studied, deliv
ered in an easy manner, mid was received
witli marked attention by lie* audience.
“ .1/i/f/i.s,” by A. 11. Potlerer, an old and
popular subject, was discussed by this
speaker, ills speech was well written and
olerably well delivered.
Mr. Ferrlere, whose subject was “Thu
Tic," huH an agreeable voice,
and a moderately good delivery. Hu is
In favor of the “ equality of the ruoos,”
ami, we Judge, of amalgamation also; ns
wo are unable to perceive how negro
(•quality could legitimately bo lauded in
i dissertation on “The Family Tie,”
unless tn advocacy of the commingling
»f the races in that relation. We trust,
for the honor of his Alma Mater, that Mr.
F. will not reduce his theory into practice.
Mr. Geary was announced tospeuk about
“the Oath,” but did not do so “muchly,’* as
Arteinus says. The orator attributed the
rapid growth of our con ulry, to tho profound
respect which its people entertain for “The
Oath.” This resp.-ct was evidenced, he
thought, by thesmall number of desertions
which occurred in our army during the re
cent contlict. Those who have seen ,the
largo lists of deserters from Pennsylvania
regiments, which the ('ommomveallh has
furnished to the clerks ot the Courts o[
(Quarter Sessions in the dillereut counties,
and those who are accustomed to sit in our
courts during (Quarter Sessions week, will
fear that Mr. Henry is !laltc‘ring us over
much ; for they will have reason to doubt
the truth of both his fact and Us example.
“Spiritualism,” by Jos. H. Kershner, was
well-conceived, but lie spoke in an entirely
100 low a tone of voice, llis gesticulation
was appropriate ; better, perhaps, than the
oration itself.
Mr. (imss took for his subject “ The Her
man Cuiiilicl," and did liinisuli much credit
by liis effort. His matter was good, and his
delivery graceful. Ho modulated his voice
with a good deal ol skill, but might we
thought, huve thrown a little nior nfccliny
.nto his tones.
Mr. Nevin's performance wo may very
truthfully say, was extraordinary. The
bow, willi which lie opened, was au index
to what followed—it was intense. His mo
tion was perambulatory,hisaclion gyratory',
lie looked for all the world at times as
though he was (tutting "pigeon wings” on
parlor skates. It may be that this was
owing to the fact that tho Hamlin Bros, had
been advertised to periorm their muscular
feats, last evening, on the same stage, and
the young gentleman may have supposed
that it was incumbent upon him to supply
their places, to those of the audience who
laid beeu drawn to the Hall by the Hamlin
posters. “No pent up Utica" will ever con
lino Mr. Novin's powers; we doubt indeed,
whether a boundless continent will suffice
Mr. SluiefTer delivered a very good and a
vorv earnest address on ftie “Martyrs of
Science," und was the only one of the ora
tois who seemed to feel right earnestly, tho
truth of wlmt he was saying. Mr. S. in our
judgment, had the best written oration, do*
'livered witli most feeling. Mr. Gross ex
celled all, ingraceful elocution and easy de
livery.
Mr. Seltzer has a line voice, and dilated
upon “ Thu Fenian Fiasco" with some
ability.
Mr. Stuhr showed evidences of thought
in his treatment of “ The Charities of Chris
tendom," handling the subject with some
power.
College orators always err in grasping
at a too ambitious style—in essaying to do
what their abilities will not enable them to
accomplish; and our triends, the Seniors
of '(a, were not free from this fault.
The exercises of the evening were con
siderably marred by the distribution among
the audience of a filthy sheet of printed
matter intended lbr a witty caricature ot
the speakers, Imt which fell far short of its
mark. It was the production of black
guards, and its whole character shows a
great lack of relined wit in those who con
cocted it. It is shocking, that so vileusheet
should be ottered to the perusal of the ladies
of uni-city,'’while in attendance at an honor
ed college exercise.
It was written by students who are not
lit to be received into the polite society of
our city. Their names have been whisper
ed ou the street, and we hope, for the credit
of our town, that their acquaintance will be
dropped, a id their presence among us en
tirelv icimred, by the respectable port ion of
our r.i.ivns. They are a disgrace to Frank
Lin and Marshall College, and amply merit
expulsion from its walls.
Interesting Pkkskntation. llow
many of our readers have ever visited the
Halls of the Literary Societies connected
with Franklin and Marshall College?
Tkosejvho have not, wo would advise to do
so, and we feel certain they will be amply
repaid for the walk. On Saturday, by in
vitation, we wero present at the presenta
tion of three beautiful walnut chairs, turned
and carved in gothic style, in keeping with
the hall, to the Gmthean Litorary Society,
by their friends in this community. They
were made by Christian Widmyer, Esq.
of this city, and are gotten upxn the finest
style. The design of the ladies was to sur
prise the Society, and well they succeeded*
for we are informed that no member was
acquainted with the project. As it was
the hour for the regular meeting of
the Society, a graduate member en
tered the Hall and secured an adjourn-
ment, the members being requested to re
main in the Hull. The chairs were then
carried in, followed by a number of the
ontributors, and were presented in a short
nd neat speech by Rev. A. H. Kremer,
who stated that inasmuch as twenty-seven
dollars had been deducted from the price of
the chairs, he was able to present, in addi
tion, that sum of rnouey in cash. He was
responded to on the part of the Society by
Mr. SheafTer, who expressed gratification
that the Gcutheans held so high a place in
the estimation of our citizens. The occa
sion was a very pleasant one, and passed
off satisfactorily to all parties.
The Gcetheans have recently furnished
their Hull with an elegant Brussels carpet
and after they have procured proper cur
tains, which we understand will be soon,
they will have a hall of which, not only
they, but Lancaster itself, may well feel
proud.

Race Between n Sheriff nu«l n Steamer.
A gentleman who came up from Kent
county yesterday states that on Monday
night another gentleman stopping at the
hotel in Millington, iu that county, was
robbed ot his pocket book by a party who
roomed with him, named Connor, and on
Tuesday morning it was discovered that
the guilty party had gone to Crumpton to
take the steamer for Baltimore. Sheriff
Gilpin at once got into the buggy and drove
dowu the road, knowing that the boat
would leave Crumpton, five miles down,
shortly after 6 A. M., but when he reached
that point he found he was a few minutes
too late. The sheriff was not to be outdone,
and knowing that the boat would stop at
Cbestertown, fifteen miles furtherdown the
river, he took the road for that place, and
succeeded in reaching there ahead of the
boat. When she landed Mr. Gilpin had no
difficulty iu procuring his man, and found
on him the stolen pocket-book and money.
Sheriff Gilpin thus succeeded in heading
off with a horse and buggy a Chester river
steamer, and also had the satisfaction of
landing his prisoner in Kent county jail.—

The Cumberland Valley, It Is almost univer

Is rapidly Improving; developing new sources
of wealth, and Is the resort of strangers from
all parts of the Union. Shlpponsburg bos a
population of over two thousand inhablranls,
and bids fair to be an Important point at no

great demand for leather would Indicate the
advantage of re-establishing thl • Tannery,
