And he sung: "Hurrah for my handiwork! Hurrah for the spear and the sword! Hurrah forth" haml thatshall wield them well, • For he shall be king and lord."

In six months the Colombian Ii vernment was changed, Latitte's pa pers were no longer valid and his large outfit became probably a dead loss. Ile continued his cruises, and became a pirate. I believe he attacked none but Spanish vessels. I remember when three Spanish vessels were brought into Caillou Islands, near Last Island; they were laden with a certain Spanish wine and the citizens of the Attakapas went out to see them, and purchased part of the canzo. In I'l4, when the English made their descent upon the coast of Louisiana, they made an offer to Latitte to join them, which lie refused. lie sent their proposals to• John It. primes and Ab ner Duncan, volunteer aids to (funeral Jackson—prominent citizens, NVEIO had known Latitte in his reputable days. and he offered through them to lend his services to aid the .American cause.— These gentlemen emulously introduced tho subject to Jarksim, and produced his papers, and induced him to consid er his otter.

Adler the battle of New Orleans, but llttle is known of ',Mille and his men They determined to seek some land where the story of their crimes had not penetrated. They quitted New Orleans and went to Galveston Island—some say for the purpose of (iiiiimizipg tatters say to dig up treasures buried there. 'The last I, improbable; men of their profession are notoriously reckless, and prodigal of their means; pirates and nibbers never save. If they had treas ures to bury it is safe to conjecture that they would select some spot more con venient to their usual haunts than Gal veston Island, when in adverse weather It must have taken several days to make the trip, and which, from its very re moteness, must have been exposed to be plundered by faithless members of the band. . . From Galveston Island it is uncertain whither they went. It is said that La lltte sailed to South America. The ab sence or all intelligence is a proof that he Was ashamed of his past career, and changed his name and profession as he hail intended, and led a new life. I have heard it stated that, he has a daughter living now IISO3I in New Or leans. Latitle was no sailor; lie never com manded a vessel. lie equipped them, paid their expenses, sold the cargoes of captured vessels, and was the financial manager. The vessels at sea were com manded by a captain employed by him, named Dominique, a rare and skillful sailor, small, fair, with a kind and pleasant face, a perfect picture of Coop er's Red Rover. A citizen of St. Martin, the late John F. Miller, related to me the following : That once he carried iuto Cuba from New Orleans a cargo of flour, which he sold fur twenty thou sand dollars; but bills of exchange were not in use between Havana and New Orleans, or at any rate he could procure none, and that he was forced to bring back the money in the schooner that had taken the Hour ; that lie pack ed the dollars carefully iu crates like oranges, taking a few filled with the latter fur use at sea, and for his house hold at home. When near the coast of Florida, his vessel was boarded by pirates, and Dominique, whom Mr. Miller had known in New Orleans, stepped aboard. He greeted Mr. Miller kindly, and this gentleman, as may be guessed, was all courtesy. " Well, Miller, what have you on board to-day ?" Vie ljaittOtet VOLUME 72 "Nothing but a little rum and a few crates of oranges." " Why, didn't you sell that flour?" " Yes, Dominique ; but you did not think I was going to bring the money back while you've got a vessel? And I sold the flour badly ; it was a poor spec ulation. I wish I had let it alone. What I made I left in Cuba." " Well, let me see." Mr. Miller led him down and showed him the crates, and even opened one, containing oranges, of course. "Well, Mr. Miller, you have nothing that I want, except a few oranges and a little rum for my men. Let inc have those and I will let you go on." With the greatest alacrity Mr. Miller had,the oranges and rum handed into the boat, which now departed with Dominique and those of his men who had accompanied him. Years passed away; the war with England broke out. Dominique sur rendered with the band, and being an excellent gunner, was placed in com mand of two important guns. It was some days ere the:English advanced.— Mr. Miller was stationed in another part of the lines. One afternoon he sauntered down to Dominique's station. Seated there upon sonie timber, they conversed familiarly. Dominique made some allusion to Mr. Miller's visit to Cuba; the other laughed. "Dominique, do you know I cheated you then Those were crates or gold and silver, ex ceut those I gave you. I had twenty thinisand dollars in the others." Dominique was silent for u moment or two; 'lien, to Mr. Miller's surprise, lie seized Ills hand and shook it heartily. " 1 am glad or it, Mr. Miller!" he ex claimed; "I am delighted! Do you know," in a low, impressive tone, " if ny men had known that,you would have walked the plunk I could not have re straied them. Thvy would hays rob hed you, killed you, and sunk your ves- few )'card past in the na;bll of I berville. Ile was not known, and lived unmolested and to 0 great Progressite Spiritualism Cnonp-Ileetinixitt 1/nlom:ton, Mil.- rocertlioigs—speliker% maul Illedltomr Reported the Jialtine,re Ili :2!;11,.: Until of late years Spiritualism lots had but little hold in this country save in the North and Ety , t, and thirty-three years ago, when a num who preached Spiritualism in New York was arrested for insanity, it was with difficulty that he could save himself from being sent to a lunatic asylum. Since then the doctrine of departed shit its having con verse with their friends upon this mun dane sphere has been slowly but steadi ly gaining ground, and ndw, In many of the States, believers are becoming quite numerous, especially in the East :old West. The congregation has extended itself into Maryland, and in Baltimore there are two distinct congregations, one pre sided over by Mrs. Ilyser, who believe more in the physiology of Spiritualism than in test manifestation ; the other presided over by Moses Hull, under whose auspices the comp-tweeting is now being held. The grove in which the camp is held is well known as having been used us a national camp-ground by the Methodist denomination only a short time ago, and subsequently by the Union colored camp. And now beneath the wide spreading oaks of this beautiful grove the Spiritualists are at present holding I sweet communion with departed spirits, and profess to inert face to face those ! who long ago have passed front the I scenes of titkie, and recount with pleas ure the joys of other days, and look hopefully forward to the period when they too shall be " changed," as they call death, and be transferred front this to a higher existence. The camp ground is substantially the same as left by the Methodists about a year ago. There are only about ten tents erected on the place, one of which is oc cupied by Moses Hull, who has charge of the camp, and has inscribed the word " Moses " over the entrance to his tab ernacle. he letters of the inscription are made of dilferent colored leaves, which, it is claimed, were put up by a medium while under the influence or the spirits. Another of the tents is nice ly festooned in front With evergreens and flowers, and itas Up a placard an nouncing "Spirit pictures for sale here." Upon the front of another tent is a placard bearing the words "Bachelor's Hall—Private." Another one of the tents is arranged somewhat after the style of a trural summer-house, and is used principally for children to play in. In the rear or the line of tents is a boarding tent, in charge of Mr Bishop, of Baltimore. In front of the tents the stand and seats are arranged, the latter having a capacity of seating about 600 persons. The stand has no pulpit, and is partly covered with canvass. Speakers and mediums are present from Baltimore, Philadelphia, Harris burg and other places. The singing is conducted by Mr. ( ;en. Broome, of Baltimore, the instrument used by him being a violin, and the 113 mn-book, "'the Spiritual Harp."— The singiwr is one of the features of the camp, and b y its soothing etrects it is claimed that the spirits are induced to take possession of the mediums, and get them under what is termed "the influ ence." Yesterday was what is Called Lyceum Day, a day especially set apart for the entertainment of children connected with the Sunday-school or lyceumof the Spiritual congregation, which occupies Rattle's Hall. I t was expected that a lyceum from Philadelphia would parti cipate in the exercises, but owing to a heavy rain-storm prevailing in that city yesterday morning, the children could not turn out. A large number of per sons, however, went from Baltimore, including nearly a car-load of children. The srxercises connected with the ly ceum entertainment were very interest- The chief mill's-hal of the occasion was r. E. (Iran v le, of Mil ti more, with Mr. Levi Weaver. us conductor. Messrs. Jacob Weaver and Joh n 11. Weaver also took leading parts in tile exercises. When the train which left Baltimore at 7:H reached Oak higton station, the party on board were met by a delega tion from the camp-ground, and form ing in line, with the smaller children in front, the procession moved to the camp ground, headed by the Port Deposit Brass Band. Next to the band the national ensign was carried by Mr. John 11. Weaver, and a beautiful flag of white silk was borne by a lady, inscribed in gilt letters the word " Guardian," which is known as the guardian flag. Previous to the procession starting, the children went through a semi-military 1 7 pon arriving at the rain p the pro cession was marshaled in front of the stand, where the lyceum was dismiss ed for a time. The band took a position and during the day discoursed good music at proper intervals. The stand was tastefully decorated with flowers and evergreens. Shortly after the lyceum had been dismissed, 'Moses Hull, familiarly known upon the ground 113 " llrother Moses," ascended the rostrum, and stated that they would bolo a social chat. He here took occasion to rkfer to the rules of the camp, and stated that no whiskey or other intoxicating liquors were to be sold or drunk upon the ground. Spiritualists, lie said, scarcely ever dealt in that kind of "spirits."— Smoking was not allowed, because its encts were distasteful to their medi ums, and might spoil what otherwise might be agood address. He wanted all who felt the spirit to be operating with them to get up and speak. Mr. Hull concluded by introducing Mrs. H. T. Stearns, a lady about 40 years of age, with pleasant address, entertain ing manners and good delivery, who ad dressed the audience. She had been in the habit of attending grove meetings. but this thing of carrying their houses and beds with them was a new thing to her, and she was not altogether pleased with it. Spiritualism, she said, was so large and grand that it covered all of God's people, and all find in it or under it a home. There were in some of the States more Spiritualists than all other faiths together. There was a great de mand now for test mediums. They claimed to be philosophical, and held that religion is a science of the soul.— She advised them all to participate in the meeting, and if they could not all talk they could sing. After music by the band, Mr. Hull an nounced that the hour for forming the ly ceum had arrived, and advised the audi ence to keep their seats while it was forming. It was no breach of order, he said, to talk or sing, eo they did not swear, lie or s teal. The children, being marshaled in front of the stand, were seated, and after some preliminary exercises an address of welcome was delivered by Miss M. Florence Hull, concluding with reciting a portion of a poem, much loved, u.s she stated, by President Lincoln, commenc ing : If you cannot on the ( - wenn Sall among the swlfieht fleet," Se. Mr. Hull, on behalf of the camp-meet ing, extended a welcome to the children of the progressive lyceum. A portion of an interesting poem was ready by Mr. and Mrs. Hull, after which the children went through some interesting calis thenic exercises, Miss Amanda Hazley being stationed on the stand, and led the exercises with considerable aptness. The children then took their seats, and an address was made by A. A. Wheelock, who said, that in order that Spiritualism might be successful, he deemed it essential to work with chil dren. They could thereby serve Clod truly, because they could benefit human ity, and the only way to serve God truly, he said, was by doing something for humanity. Music was a great medium through which to interest children ; music to the child was intoxication. The physical nature should be cultivated, and they could not serve God right until their bodies are right, hence the exercises of the lyceum. Under these influences old men get young again. The organiza tion of lyceumsshould he ll radical " new leparture." After the addre , s, Mrs, ('. Fannie Allyn, a sprightly Attie speaker and medium, with curly hair, delivered an impromptu poem, composed on the children's lyceum, while under the "in fluence." Before proceeding she seemed to undergo come perceivable change in her physical appearance, and whether the poem was impromptu or not, it was well composed and jingled pleasantly. re. Allyn delivers impromptu dramatic dialogues, which are said to be one of the most difficult "tests." The audience was now dismissed for dinner, and dur ing the interval an address was wade by Dr. Seely, who endeavored to show that Spiritualism was taught in the Bible.. After dinner the audience were in vited to be seated and be quiet, and they would be favored with some test manifestations by I\l r. Reilly, a young test-medium. Iteidy first sang a song or hymn, and after getting "under the influence," communicated with number of persons in the audience, to whom the "spirit" desired to speak. This passed on . very well, but all of a sudden a medium in the audience was taken possession of by the spirit of an Indian chief, and after sitting almost as a statue for some minutes, with the muscles of Ills face contorted to inimita ble savagery, his bead began to move front side b; side. Ile jumped up and commenced to whoop in true "big diun " style, and to pace up and down the ground like a raving maniac. The scene that followed beggars description. Ladies and children became frightened. and whenever the embodied spirit of the Indian would make a movement a general stampede followed. Those who b lieved in spiritual man ifestations did not seem to be alarmed, though one of the speakers who had been a spiritualist for about 12 years, re marked that he never before saw such a manifestation. The person possessed of the " Indian "continued to jump around the ground like a kangaroo for about a half or three-quarters of an hour, hug ging men, women awl children, with out uttering anything but fearful Indian whoop, and striking his hand upon his breast, would put himself in the atti tude similar to the " red man " when pre paring for battle. About the same (line other spirits seemed to take possession of a number of the mediums, men and women, present, who were gesticula ting, speaking and gesturing in a num ber of places ILIMIId the grove, which was for all the world like Bedlam let loose. Finally one of the mediums, a lady. and, by the way, uric of the fairest looking mediums upon the ground, cape to the spot where the Son reporter was looking on in bewilderment. She frantically embraced the blushing re porter, and told him that he had big sticks in his head. Explainiwr ' the term by adding that she meant knowledge, and that he would give his knowledge as "light for all" through the columns of the San. She offered to give the reporter a history of his life, but as the reporter did not think that such a revelation would sound so well in the ear of the large crowd which had by that time as sembled around them, he preferred she would postpone her " revela tions" until sonic other time. The manifestations were finally broken up by a summons from Mr. Hull for the assembling of the lyceum. The band commenced playing Shoo-Fly, bUt were stopped, in consequence of the tune not being suited for marching. Upon the children being seated in front of the rostrum, au exhi bition took place, in which Miss Aman da Hazeley, Miss Yost, Misses M. Flor ence and Cynthia Hull, Mies Minnie French, of Philadelphia, Miss L. Eng long, Miss Ida Henry, Sallie Henry, Kate Forrest, and Master Edward Wright creditably participated. A col lection was taken up, and after this was the grand march, which was very ini pressive, the children being supplied with United States flags and other small bags of different colors. After being drawn up again before the stand the lyceum was dismissed, and this closed the regular exercises until 7 o'clock in the evening. The remainder of the afternoon, up to about a o'clock, the time for leaving for the cars, was spent by the children in pie-nie - style, they, with some of the larger people engaging in what is known as "kissing plays." ard Work • • All classes of men complain of " hard work." The carpenter thinks it " too bad" that he Is obliged to work so hard for a living, while his neighbor, the physician, can rile in his carriage to at tend patients, or leisurely deal out medi cine iu his (dike. - The physician thinks it hard work to be in readiness to obey calls at all hours of the day and night; to travel in cold and heat, through mud and storms, and not even be allowed one hour in the twenty-four which he can pmitively call his own time. He envies his friend the carpenter, who, when the day's work is done, can turn to his family and meet in peace. The blacksmith feels that a hard lot in life has fallen to him, as he strikes at the anvil, through the lung day, while on the opposite side of the street, his neighbor, the lawyer, seems to be called to the performance of no harder work than writing at his table, or reading of his law books. But the lawyer, as his glance falls upon the blacksmith, thinks of years spent in study to lit Mtn for the proles. sum, of other years of strenuous mental exertion and constant application to gain a reputation, of tile still inces sant toil necessary to attain if, of his frequent unavoidable contacts with most hardened villians, of the re volting relations of crime he is compel led to hear, of the hundreds of suffering, innocent victims who plead with him to succor them from powerful oppressors, but whom he can nut aid. With a sigh he turns away from the whistling, sing ing, jolly-faced, and brawny-armed blacksmith, and feels it a harder work to hummer and weld the iron, and blow the bellows of the law in such a manner as shall always keep the fires of his rep utation burning before the world. So it is in the various branches of trade, and in all professions. Each is apt to think his neighbor's business light work compared to the duties in cumbent upon him to perform. But it is not so. The merchant and the me chanic, the clergyman and the farmer, have all work to do, either mental or physical, of equal importance to the general body politic, and requiring equaLexertions. The grumbling about hard work is of no benefit to us, but de cidedly foolish and wicked. We are made to work. God consti tuted us with bones, sinews, strength, and in every way, by mental and phy sical endowment, adapted for the per formance of labor. Labor is called wor ship ; the weather in the mental orphy sical sphere of action, he who labors the most perseveringly, the most efficiently for the good of himself and welfare of his fellow-men, must be accounted the most faithful and acceptable worship per.

LANCASTER, PA., WEDNESDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER 6, 1871 A Mysterious Victim A Woman Packed in a Trone—The Body Checked for Chiengo—Accident al Discovery of the Itematne—Flott the Criminals. A plain cab, drawn by one horse, stopped before the principal door of the Thirtieth-street, Hudson River Railroad Depot, last Saturday about 2:30 P. 3t.— Its occupant, a young woman of small stature, plainly dressed, alighted upon the sidewalk and nervously handed some money to the driver, who there upon drove away as if in a great hurry. Hundreds of carriages had thus come and gone during the day. and this inci dent was naturally unnoticed by the by-standers. The woman paused a moment on the side-walks, as if think ing intently. A number of boys were standing near, waiti,pg for opportunities to carry baggage for passengers, and one of them attracted her attention. She called him and said that a wagon would soon come with a trunk, which she wanted him to help carry into the bag gage-room. The boy, who was known to his companions as " Paddy," readily assented to the engagement, and told the woman that it would be necessary for her to purchase a ticket before she could get a check for the trunk from the baggage-master. He then led his em• ployer to the ticket office, where she purchased a ticket for Chidago. The boy, who was very observant, saw that she gave the ticket agent and re ceived SiS change, the price of the tick et being : , •22. Returning to the side-walk, the wo man led the boy to a truck which had been driven up before the window of the baggage-office during their absence.— this truck was a very small one, with three burn painted red on each side, and also with the name "Tripp," paint ed upon one of its panels. l'he truck luau was old, of slight stature, and wore the blue overalls of a common cartman, lie was greeted by the woman as an old acquaintance. A cheap packing-trunk of small size was on the truck. The woman remarked to the boy that this trunk contained a good deal of glass ware, and would better be carefully lifted. On attempting to raise it, the lid nearly came off, and the woman anxiously asked the boy if lie could not purchase a rope. " Paddy". bought a strap of the baggage-master for SI and brought it to her. The trunk was then securely fastened, carried into the bag gage-room, and placed upon the count er. The baggage-master was hurried, and, upon being shown the ticket, quickly handed the woman a check, aud, attaching another to the trunk, flung it upon a pile of others. The boy .eceived his compensation and walked carelessly with the woman toward Ninth avenue, meanwhile thinking it very curious that a passenger should come to the depot so early in the after noon, when the Chicago train started at 8 o'clock in the evening. The woman left the boy upon reaching Ninth ave nue, after engaging him to meet her on the corner of Thirtieth street, at 7:30 and show her what car to take. She went down Ninth avenue, and was last seen by " Paddy" walking with great haste. Meanwhile the trunk was moved about here and there in the reckless manlier of baggage-men, until finally it was thrown out of the baggage-room upon the platform, from which the trunks are placed in the luggage-car.— Doubtless from this rough handling the lid was iu sonic wanner lotwened, for a porter leaning over to lift the trunk, noticed a naugeonA stench proceeding from it. Robert Vandeward, the bag gage-master, was told of this by the porter, and resolved to open it. The lock was very fragile, and upon the first pressure gave way. The lid was lifted, and upon the top an ordinary quilt was seen, under which a thick blanket was found. Upon removing these, a horri ble sight met the eyes of the baggage master. In the bottom of the trunk, with the head resting upon the knees, was the body of a young woman. The trunk was only two feet six inches long and is inches deep, and yet a body over 5 feet in length bad been forced into it. To do this the fiends had placed the corpse upon its right side, doubled up the legs and bent the head forward. The girl could not have been over IS years or age, and was an unusually beautiful "blonde" with line features and a com plexion of extraordinary clearness. Her long auburn hair of a shining color, hung in heavy tresses over her shoul ders and hid her breast. Her hands, though small and slender, showed that she had labored. No cuts or marks of assault were found upon the body, al though there were slight signs of de composition about the pelvic' region. Capt Caffrey of the Twentieth Pre cinct Police was informed of the dis covery, and immediately began hunt ing for a Coroner. He succeeded, about ii o'clock in the evening, in finding Cor oner Young, by whom an order was signed for the removal of the body to the Morgue. During this time hundreds of persons, moved by curiosity, were permitted to gaze upon the body. At Police Headquarters, in Mulberry street, Inspector Walling examined all the records of the past three months, but found no account of a missing girl corresponding to the victim. Ou the information furnished by the boy known as " Paddy," but whose true name was found to be Alexander Parks, Inspector Walling examined the list of truck - men but found that there was only one eartman in the city of the name of Tripp, and he easily cleared himself from all suspicion. Orders were then sent out to arrest a cartman named Trapp and the order was obeyed, but, after a detention of several hours, he was released, Parks positively asserting that lie was not the man. Bullied iii this direction, Inspector Wallings issued, about 3 a. m., a general order to the police to examine all the trucks in the city, to discover, if possi- ble, the one described by Parks. This search was also unsuccessful, word com ing from all the precincts that no truck of the kind could be found. The police were, however, successful, yesterday Imaning, in finding the man who drove the cal, for the mysterious woman, in the person of a livery-man who keeps a stable in Twenty-third street, near Third avenue. 'the cabman told the police that, about 2 o'clock on Saturday, he returned to his stable and found wait ing there a woman who wished to go to the Hudson River Railroad depot. He took her there for $l, and noticed that she acted strangely upon getting out of the cab. As fur describing her, he said that was beyond his power, as he did not scan her closely, and regarded her as he would any other common passen ger. The body of the young woman was removed to the Bellevue Hospital Dead- House about 10 o'clock ou Saturday night. Here it was taken from the truck and placed in a cow :non pine cotlin. No effort was made to preserve it upon ice, for identification or for the photograph ers. The body when found in the rail road depot showed few signs of decay, but six hours in the dead-house convert ed it into a loathsome object. The face and neck swelled into horrible propor tions, and the upper portion of the body turned almost black from rapid decom position. When the photographers at last arrived, about 3 yesterday afternoon, the face was so changed that they deem ed it useless to take a picture, as she could not have been recognized by her dearest friends. Deputy-Coroner Cushman arrived at the Morgue at 11 A. M. yesterday and made a careful post-mortem examina tion of the body. tie believed the woman had been dead three or four days. On opening the abdominal cavi ty he found it filled with liquid, and showing signs of peritonitis. The womb was large and contained evi dences that a fetus had been expelled. Dr. Cushman was of the decided opin ion that death was caused by acute per itonitis, resulting from an abortion. The police are making every effort to discover the authors of the horrible out rage, but as yet without the slightest success. The failure of the photograph ers to obtain a portrait is regarded by the detectives as a hard-Vow to their enterprise, and the absenee of any trace of the truckman as alm - tist the end of hope for any discovery. ! A clue fur nished by ex-Deputy Coroner Shine is attracting some attention. Dr. Shine was visiting Dr. Nagle, July 8, in the room appropriated at Police Headquar ters for the Bureau of Vital Statistics, when an elderly lady entered. She said that the niece of a friend in Canada had come to the city a few weeks be fore with the intention of putting her self under some eminent physician's care for treatment of a tumor in the stomach. The girl, after spending some time in looking around, had told her that she had at last found a physician in Oak street. A week afterward the girl had left the house and had then been absent four days, causing great alarm to her relatives. Dr. Nagle asked the lady the name of the physician in Oak street, and on being informed by her, looked through the list, but was unable to find any doctor of the name having an office there. Dr. Nagle then asked for a de scription of the girl's personal appear ance, and the lady said that she was of a light complexion, with golden hair, and a lovely face. The lady gave her address in Bond street.-2C. Tribune. NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.—The mystery of the corpse found in the trunk at the Hudson river depot is clearing up. The truckman who brought it has surren dered himself, and the police, acting on information given by him, have arrested the notorious abortionist, Dr. Jacob Rosenzweig, alias Asher, from whose house the trunk was taken. The peo ple attempted to lynch the Doctor as he was being conveyed to the Tombs, and he was saved. with difficulty by the police. He denies all knowledge of the affair. The WIECOBSIII Democracy Remarks of Hon. James R. Doolittle, upon Neeeptintr the Nomina tion for Governor. Mr. Doolittle, upon being declared the unanimous nominee of the Demo cracy of Wisconsin, for Governor in the convention at Madison, on Wednesday, came forward and made an admirable speech of acceptance. In the course of his remarks he said : The views and purposes of the Demo cratic party,and of all who opposed the adoption of those amendments, have beeu frequently called in question, and that by Senator Morton and Speaker Blaine, who are regarded as the leaders of the administration party. They say, in substance, because the Democratic party opposed military reconstruction and voted against those amendments in Congress and the State Legislatures, it intends when it comes into power—and come it will—to disregard those amend ments and set them aside. In saying this, they assert what they cannot know to be true, and they assert what we know cannot be true. Long before Mr. Val landigham said anything upon the sub ject, the address of the Democratic members of Congress declared the contrary : "We earnestly entreat our fellow-citizens in all parts of the Union to spare no efibrts to maintain peace and order; to carefully protect the rights of every citizen ; to preserve kindly relations among all men, and to discountenance and discourage any vio lation of the rights of any portion of the people secured under the Constitution or by any of the amendments." As to Mr. Vallaudigham, it might have been a new departure, but to Democratic members of Congress, the leaders of the party, it was no new departure.— How could the Democratic party dis regard or set aside those amendments if they would? But three ways can be conceived or have been suggested. First, by obtaining a decision of the Su preme Court declaring them void. The present construction of that Court makes the thing impossible, and no Democrat would propose to reconstruct the Su preme Court to reverse its decision.— They honor the Judiciary too much to do that. Besides it is almost certain that upon all such political questions, depending upon the results of elections, the Judiciary would feel bound to ac cept and follow the declarations of the political power. Congress and the Ex ecutive thought the Supreme Court could neither take judicial notice of events depending upon the elections except as they are declared, nor frame an issue to try the question of fact whether :a Constitutional amendment has or has not been ratified by the Leg islatures of three•fourths of all the States, after the same has been pro claimed duly ratified by the proper offi cer under the forms of law. Second, by proposing a new amendment to set them aside directly. This would be a legitimate mode, but is wholly impracticable. Be yond q uestion, more titan one-third of the States would vote against it, and three fourths are required to carry it. The attempt to do so would renew the agita tion of the negro question in another form, hut could bring no practical re sult. Besides, all parties, North and South. arc unwilling to open that ques tion. The negro is free, and none would enslave him, and negrosutl•rage has be comes. fixed fact—a th ing accomplished. Third, the only other possible mode is the military one of using the army to control elections and to change the Con stitution. Radicals like Senator Morton might consistently adopt this mode, for they the not hesitate to put the army above the Constitution and civil law in order to control or decide elections; but no man who still cherishes the doc trines of the old Democratic-Republican school of Jefferson and of Jackson would dare to use the standing army for any such purpose. Besides, the attempt to take away negro suffrage by force would lead to a bloody struggle—prob ably to civil war—and without do ing any good would involve greater evils than now exist. I should not have dwelt upon this subject so long but for the constant efforts of our Radical opponents to place us in a false position, and to charge us with the pur pose of dealing with the Constitution as they themselves have done, viz : To re anistruct it by the sword and to renew civil strife. And now, gentlemen, let me inquire, What are the issues and ditties of the present hour? I, In rela tion to these amendments we cannot expect a decision of the Supreme Court to annul them ; we do not propose a new amendment to set them aside, and least of all by the sword. But the question arises: How will you remedy the un bearable evils which now rest upon the Southern States? You know the dis franchisement of hundreds of thousands of the most intelligent whites, and the universal suffrage of the blacks, led by adventurers of the standing army have subjected the people to the worst form of government, and robbed, burdened, and humiliated them beyond de scription. In the language of the Dem ocratic Congressional address : " Our hopes for redress are in the calm, good sense of the sober second-thought of the American people. We call upon them to be true to themselves mid to their past, and, disregarding party name and minor differences, to insist upon a de cent qualification of power; the restric tion of Federal power within its just and proper limits, leaving to the States that control of the domestic affitirs that is essential to their happiness, tranquil ity, and good government." Will you Ignore that and leave them without remedy ? No, gentlemen ; but the rem edy we propose is one to ,cure and not to aggravate the disease—to appeal to the reason and returning sense, the jus tice, magnanimity, and fraternal leel ing of the North and South in favor of amnesty. In this appeal large numbers —thousands upon thousands—of liberal Republicans, like Brown and Schurz, of Missouri, have already joined. The negroes themselves at the South will join in demanding amnesty for their late masters. The example of Missouri cannot long be resisted. 'The Choctaws and Cherokees, in their treaties of peace six years ago, gave universal amnesty, and their example should shame Chris tian white men out of a policy resting on unfeigned hate or unmanly fear. The sentiment must become really uni versal amnesty, and two-thirds of Con gress will vote for the bill. Although late coming,it will tend to restore fraternal feeling. It will certainly restore intelli gence and character at the South; give it a voice once more in the management of its local affairs,and restore to those States what they have not had for years—a re publican form of government. Gentle men, among the other important issues of the present the greatest is : Whether our government is to be in substance— if not in form—revolutionized; whether the Federal Government is to remain as our fathers made it, based upon a written Constitution, limiting and ;defining its powers and reserving the mass of powers not delegated to the several States and to the people; or whether it is to become a government of unlimited and central ized power; in a word, whether the United States shall continue to be a union under the Constitution, or be come a centralized despotism at Wash ington to be governed by the secret re solves of a caucus, and by the President at the head of the army? Our faithful representative at Washington says: " Under the pretence of passing laws to enforce the rourteenth amendment, and for other purposes, Congress has confer eed the most despotic powers upon the Executive, and provided an official ma chinery by which the liberties of the people are menaced, and the sacred rights of local self-government in the States ignored, if not tyrannically over thrown, modeled by the sedition laws, so odious in! history." They are at va- slttettigtr(kt riance with all the sanctified theories of our institutions, and the construction given by these Radical interpreters to the fourteenth amendment is, touse the language of an eminent Senator—Mr. Trumbull, of Illinois—" annihilator of States." Under the last enforcement bill, the Executive may, in his discre tion, thrust aside the Government of any State, suspend the writ of habeas corpus, arrest its Governor, imprison or dis perse its Legislature, silence its judges, and trample down its people under the armed heel of his troops. ;Nothing is left to the citizens or State which can any longer be called a right. All is changed into mere suffrauce. As sure ' as we live this is /.he great issue and danger upon ur - noW. Everybody feels that a revolutron is going on in that di rection. The very ground is giving way under our feet. Radicals admit it ; some avow and justify it, and some of the best friends of republican government fear that the revolution has already gone too far to be arrested. But, gentlemen, let us not despair; truth will rise again. In the nature of things, in our system of government, two forces are always at work like the two forces in ourplao eta ry system, the one tending to draw all planets to the centre, the other to take them out of the system altogether.— They have been constantly struggling with each other from the beginning and from before the beginning. As compromise of forces, the planets were made to revolve in their orbits around the sun, so by a wise compromise and balance of forces in our political system our composite form of government was made. To the Federal Government were given certain definite and delegated powers necessary to the Union, to the common defence, and the general wel fare. All the remainder, except just enough to carry into effect the powers delegated, were reserved to the States and the people. With men of extreme views and radical tendencies it seems almost impossible to comprehend a in itation of rights and powers. To illus trate: With the Radicals of the South —and I might add some at the North— before the war, the Federa: Government had no rights the States were bound to respect. The war, I think, has cured, or ought to cure that delusion, but I fear it has given rise to another; for, since the war, the Radicals of the North seem to think the States have no rights the Eederal.(fovernment is bound to respect. And this last delusion is as dangerous to liberty as the first. Ex treme follows extreme. The pendulum from one side of the arc swings always to the other, and the higher it rises on the one side the higher it rises on the other. The rebound front the war be gan. The Southern Radicals' idea of all power in the States is now under the lead of those who control this adminis tration, fast driving all power into the Federal Government. 1 repeat, in my opinion, gentlemen, the real issue, para mount over all others at this moment, is whether the true republican form of gov ernment of our fathers shall give way to centralization and to military despotism. It has already made long strides in that direction. The great duty of the Democratic party and all who love re publican liberty is to bury all the issues of the past, and unite in an honest, earnest, self-sacrificing effort to arrest the further progress of that revolution. We can only do that by a change of administration ; by restoring, as far as the Constitution will allow it, to State Legislatures,State Judiciaries, State Ex ecutives, and State military forces the defence and maintenance of the rights and liberties of the people, which cen tralized power cannot defend but will certainly destroy; by placing the civil above the military power in all the States; by reducing the standing army, that standing menace of all republics, with its life tenures, aristocratic tenden cies, and extravagant expenditures, and by preventing its further interference with the freedom of elections. OMNI= Thirty-five dead bodies have been re covered from the wreck of the steamer Ocean Wave, near Mobile. The number of deaths from the East ern Railroad disaster has reached hi. It is believed that several of the injured will die. A' train was thrown from the track of the Southside Railroad of Long Island, yesterday, but fortunately no one was injured. "Negligence of the switch tender'' is reported as the cause. At Memphis, Captain J. Theodore Adams, a dry goods clerk, was shot dead by J. W. S. 'Browne, a pressman, whose (laughter he had betrayed and refused to marry. Browne gave himself up. At Washington, on Tuesday after noon, Geo. H. McNaen, aged 11, was killed by lightning. Mrs. Locket was also struck by lightning about the same time, and it is feared will lose her eye sight. Governor, Senter, of Tennessee, has is sued circulars to the Governors:of all the States and Territories inviting their co operation in securing a full representa tion at the National Agricultural Con gress to meet at Nashville ma the :Id of October. At Washington, on Monday night, a man named John Clary was found by a detective on a street corner, with his throat cut and bleeding profusely. His wound was dressed, and lie was taken home, but refused to give any informa tion which would lead to an arrest. A despatch from Charleston last night reports a " few new cases " of yellow fever, and three deaths among those previously reported. It adds that "opin ion is still divided as to the probability of the disease assuming the proportions of an epidemic." At Alamenda, Cal— on Tuesday night, a man named Engelbrecht found iu his back-yard a man named Patton, who was formerly a suitor for Mrs. Engel brecht. Several shots were exchanged, and both were wounded—Engelbrecht mortally. Patton is in jail. William Hickman was arrested in Utah Territory on Monday, charged with murdering a Spaniard last year.— He was formerly a Mormon of good standing, and the "Gentiles" say that his arrest will lead to' disclosures impli cating the Mormon authorities in other crimes. A report published sotne time since of the capture by Indians of a train near Fort hiii, Indian Territory, the killing of several drivers, and subsequent burn ing at the stake of two more, is contra dicted by S. L. Woodward, the Post Ad jutant of Fort Sill. He says no such af fair occurred near that post, and the train is now engaged in hauling hay. At Louisville, on Wednesday, the fourth floor of Whitney, Brown Ss Co.'s warehouse gave way under a heavy weight of grain, and crushed through the other floors into the cellar, killing three men—one white and two colored. Two prominent merchants had just stepped from the building, and were thrown out into the street by the con cussion. The steamship Mississippi, from New York for New Orleans, was wrecked on the Florida coast on the 24th inst. All on board were saved, and arrived at New Orleans in the steamship Cortez, on Wednesday. The cargo of the Miss issippi, mostly dry goods and shoes,was valued at $500,060, and the vessel was valued at $150,000. It Is thought that both will be a total loss. An Atlanta despatch says the archives of the Georgia State road were on Wed nesday turned over to a committee of citizens. During the last four days the late Auditor, Treasurer, General Ticket Agent, Master Mechanic and several merchants have been held to answer for frauds on the treasury, and the turn ing over of the archives to the citizens' Committee as a result.: The crew of the British bark Mona, composed of colored men. recently mu tinied at sea, and the Captain, Hatfield, shot and slightly wounded one of the mutineers. The vessel arriving at Darien, Ga., Hatfield was arrested by the colored men there and lodged in jail. He was released on Tuesday, and went to Savannah. The matter is to be laid before the British Minister at Washing , ton. Heavy rains in New York State on Tuesday night did considerable damage. Three breaks occurred in the Delaware and Hudson Canal above Ellensville, two being one hundred feet long, and a third seventy-five feet. It will require eight or ten days to repair these breaks. Trains on the Rondout and Oswego Railroad were delayed several hours by damage to the Beaver Kill Bridge. At East Al bany,several houses were carried away by a rise in the culverts of Quack enderry creek, and many families had to escape from the houses by the second story windows.

Twenty-two Persons Killed rind Forty seven Injored---The Disaster 'at Stowntorket----Esplosion of Gun Cotton. treat the London Telegraph, August 11 ] It would be difficult to exaggerate the de gree of excitement and alarm produced in the secluded coin m unity at Stowmarket by the deadly explosion of Friday last. Un fortunately, the results of the cata.strophe fully justify this alarm. hi the same house, curiously enough, the wine-cellar door was forced open, mirrors were fractured, furniture broken; and, in many cases, where the sashes as wallas the panes were hurled right through the room, the inmates were either wounded or had marvellously narrow escapes. To those who had husbands, fathers, or children em ployed at the factory, that fearful roll of smoke, and the suffocating gases that poi soned the air, told a dreadful tale. Hurry ing down towards the works they came In view of what but a few minutes before had stood a compact model village, with its magazines and sheds intact. Now all was changed into a burning ruin, enveloped in sulphurous fumes,:and its buildings utterly wrecked and destroyed. Sheds were blown down, workshops un roofed and dismantled, leaving the gaunt outlines of the machinery , half-obscured by the smoke from the burning rafters. Bricks, slates and iron torn up into shreds or brok en were soen in heaps through an atmos phere thick with dust and fire and nitrous gases. The sites of the three magazines were scooped out into deep hollows, and the earth was heaped up into black mounds. Not a vestige of the structures remained. Worse even than this scene, appalling though it was, were the cries of the wound ed scattered over the six acres of ruin, the terrified aspect of those who having been in the works had escaped with their lives, and the lamentations of those who were search ing for their friends. Notwithstanding that the flames bad seized the ruins of drying sheds, and In spite of the imminent danger, the people set to work to get out the wounded, the dead and the dying. Chief among those who were thus engaged, setting a noble, though, as it turned out, indiscreet exam• pie, were Mr. Edward Prentice and Wil liam, him nephew, the chairman's son.— Observing the clothes of a man among the broken masonry of the driving shed, these gentlemen rushed forward In order to get him out, urging others to help them, and assuring them that there was no more dan ger. But while one of them was handing along a package of gun-cotton It or some other material exploded, and blew them both to pieces—scarce even their shattered bones remain. People around werethrown down by the concussion, and it is feared the several who had escaped the large ex plosion were killed by this. The report was heard in the town. What was before a fright now became a panic. Whole fam ilies fled from their homes into the fields. It was known that there was still a fourth magazine, and from the direction of the wind and the terrible extent of the burn ing mass it seemed in the highest degree probable that this also would explode. Very great, therefore, was the danger to those who, though appalled by the two shocks and by the scenes arounffithem, did not shrink from the duties enjoined by hu manity, but manfully exerted themselves to give succor where it. was most needed. Radical Rascality In :New Orleans Governor Warmouth, of Louisiana, on Tuesday suspended Secretary of State, Geo. E. Bovee, and appointed F.J. Herron, ex- U. S. Marshal, his successor, until the meet ing of the Legislature. Bovee refused to surrender his office to Herron, and was for cibly ejected by the police. It is charged that Bovee promulgated as a law,but which did not become a law, a bill passed by the last Legislature, known as the Crescent City Water-Works bill. Bovee alleges that he acted by the advice of the Attorney-Gener al. While Bovee was being ousted from his office, a strange scene was taking place at the City Hall, where an ordinance Intro duced in Council, leasing the City Water- Works to a corn pany for twenty-five years, and authorizing the mortgage of the Works for $2,000,000 was under consideration. In the course of the discussion Administrator Delaasize (colored) produced a certificate for 1000 shares of stock at $lOO each,'which he said had been "given him to secure his vote for the measure." Administrator Walton said that " he had been offer ed a sum which would make him in dependent for life to support the meas ure, and Mayor Flanders stated that every Councilman had been approached, and that "he had. seen $lOO,OOO offered to one of them." The despatch which reports the above, adds, that the impression prevails that the measure will pass. The Bedford and Bridgeport Railroad will be finished to Bedford by the let of September.

In calling public attention to this little ma chine, a few of the invaluable qualities, (0 t lo.vssvd by any of tier washing machine yet nvented), are here enumerated. It is the smallest. most corn pact, most porta ble, most simple to construction, must easily operated. A ctiild ten years old, with a few hours' practice, can thoroughly comprehend and effectually use it. There Is ri o adjust mg, no screws to mantic, no delay in adapting! It Is always retuly for use! it Is a perlect little wonder! It is a miniature giant, doing more work and of a better quality-, than the most elaborate and costly. One-half of the labor Is !oily saved by Its use, and the clothes will last one.tialf longer than by the bid plan of the rub hoard, It will want, the largest blanket.— bree Odra,: at a time, wasniug thoroughly! In a word, the ablution of any mime, rroni Quilt to a Lace Curtain, or Cambric Hanaker cider, are equally within the capacity of this LITTLE GN.NI It can he fastened to any tub and taken off at will. .No matter how deep rooted a prejudice may exist against Washing Machines, the moment this little machine Is seen to perlorm Its won ders, all donuts of Its cleansing chicory and utility are banished, and the doubter and de tractor at once become the fast irlends of the machine. We have testimonials without end, setting forth Its numerous advantages over all others, and from hundreds who nave thrown aside the unwieldy, useless machines which have sig nally failed to aCCOmp.l!th the object promised In prominent and loud sounding advertise ments. It is as perfect for washing as a wringer is for wringing. The price, another paramount inducement to purchasers, has been placed so low that it is within the reach of every house keeper, and there is no article of domestic economy that will repay the small Investment so soon. $5.50. - - All that is asked for this GREAT LABOR SaV EEL, is a fair trial.
