ThorewhO know him best con aideehim.every way qualified and unexcep tionable, bat it is objected that hei i is much needed' where he is. . --kee4Mi.O.— • lar We tern from the Harrisburg Tele ,Faph that the 4 ' Straight American-State Convention" at Harrisburg; MayfAl , was a very sfim affair, consisting of only Eileen or twenty men, claiming to;represent Philadel phia, Weitinoreland, Armstrong, Washiag ton, Greene, Crawford, Fayette, Allegheny, and Dauphin. They resolved that they were still " Straight Americans," authorized the President to appoint a State ,CentrAl Com. mittee,.and adjourned. "The Republicans of Union County, at their meeting to appoint delegates - to the State'Coiavention, adopted the following se-- fable resolution : simile oocs have lien Ad opted in Bradford and other counties Resolved, That the opponents of the Na tional Administration in Union county disap '.prove=ofaty attempt in the State Conveu ;tioa to gifeany expression relative to Pres ' ideMial candidates or Presidential' Conven tions, .

Mr Aside from their low and vulgar per: _tonalities, to which we have no reply, the artids in the last _Montrose Dernocrat rant , lag to Bryant and BUchanan arc amusing as atotroplea of an efFort to evade the substance; lad at the same time keep up a'show of fight tiewaginia desperate war against shadows. In commenting on Mr. Bryant's letter to the Boston Republicans, the Democrat editor stated that "this admiration of Mr. Bryant for deeison is suddenly conceived; and that" this letter is the first intimation we have had of a e,hange in his sentiments to. wards the illustrious statesman." Such as. sertions, in face of the fact that Mr.' Bryant was for more than a quarter of's century one of the l leaders of. the Derilocraci, std editor - of the most influential Democratic paper in the North, are most absurd- and ridiculous, and evince great ignorance, or something worse. We pointed out these 6ets, and also the fact that Brysmt's satirical lines against Jgfferson were written when the author was $ mere schoolboy of thirteen or fourteen years, when he Was under Federal influences, and ixould not be supposed to hare formed very decided opinions on any poiitical ques tions. Thereupon the eillitor of the Demo crat got wrathy, and, for lack of facts and ar guments, fell, to calling "us hard names.- - 'With this we have no fault to find, lt was perhaps the best thing he could do , under the circumstances. But in • beatin about fur some chance of escape from the dimgreeable dilemma in which be fotiiid himself; he stem- bled against the filet that Jefferson died just about the time that Bryant _became an - editor " with Republican or Democratic tendencies." Suddenly hiscountelance brightens. "Here," says he, is one of -my - stalements anyhow that has not been disproved. , I'll make a Stead on that. PH maintain that Bryant op- posed Jetrenanqin be died, and for all that I kw* to the contrary that may be the truth." So hers-he plants himself, and proclaims with totsiderable complacency that there is a chime that be may be right in one (unim portant) particular. Nest be turns to Mr. Duch:lan, and as sures his readers that we have made a blun der—no, that our statement is "Aire We said," In the time of the war of 1814,+ MP. Buchanan was a stanch Federalist, and made fierce speeches against the war . and against the Democratic adminiktration by which it war commenced." Hire the important facts are that Mr. Buchanan was then a Federalist, and that be made speeches against the war and the Democratic administration. Well, the Democrat quotes the passage—omitting; tof course, as undeniable, the statement that Mr. Buchanan Was at that time a Federalist ' —and then admits the speeches agitinst the Inar and the adthiniitration,, but avers that they were not made till 1815,when the war was over ! Wonderful ! The treaty of peso* was net concluded till some time in the year • 1815, and Whether Mr. Buthinau's anti-war and end -Democratic speeches, (which the Democrat admits Were Made in the same Sear,) were made before or after peace was concluded, isw Matter of no consequence.— But It is of =some little consequence to get `!Democratic" editor, to adiuit that, ab late as 18I5,(aix or seven years after Bryant wroth the boyish vireo for which: the Democrat condemns hini,) the present *Deincieratic" Ptiaident of the United .

Giddings; Medsfis. Etirrotts :—The Democratic pi pers are republishing an article that was orig inally printed in the Chicago Herald, de nouncing in noneasured terms, the conduct of the Hon. Giddings, that great advo citte of universal freedom, and fearless ex ponent oltrue Republicjnism. 'The article in question hai especial reference to a letter written by Mr. Giddings, touching the cir. cntnstancvs connected with the Oberlin slave rescue case. In that letter:Mr. Giddings said that, " In disregarding the fngitive alive law the prisoners did.right." The herald gets terribly angry about this letter, and ". sincere- ly pities the poor old man" who was its au thor. it is a matter of some doubt, howev er, whistbrr or not Mr. Giddings stands in need of the - Herald's pity. It would seem to us something like the pity with which a mouse is said to regard a lion, when the lat ter is in trouble. The man whZ) is the ac knowledged champion of freedom, -who has spent the best energies of his life in behalf of the down trodden and oppressed, and who is regarded generally by his countrymen as a public benefactor, needs not tie paltry : com miseration of the Chicago ,Herald. hfr. Giddings has never 4(43 to raise his _voice on the side ipt freedottir, and uhristiani ty ; and now, while the frosts of time are - gathering on his devOted head, while he is gliding slowly but surely to an limiored grave, he hesitates nut to exercise that in domitable energy and those splendid - talents fur which he is.so celebrated, in behalf of justices~snd truth, He might he likened,with much propriety, to " Some tall cliff that lifts its awful lorry Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm While round its base the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its bald." The Herald, in alluding to,the spirit of the Republican warty as manifested through Mr. Giddings, says: "A more infernal spir. it never showed its brazen front in this or any other country." • This "infernal spirit" i ndthing more than a sincere christian desire - to prevent the ex. tension of an institution which degrades and demoralizes a large portion of the human family, and which is in itself " the sum of all villainies." The edit& has perhaps forgotten the'speech of Mr. Spratt of South Carolina, at the Vicksburg Convention, in which that gentle man declares that if, while the South was-en gaged in reopening the.,African slave trade, thereby trampling under foot the laws of the land—if the North should interfere to pro.- tea the laws, " - the sun would rise ,on the repking plains of inother Lexington and an other - Concord." - Mis• is the spirit manifested by the South. ern_wing of the Demoilmatic party ; and, • to nee the editor's owrr words ; " A more Infer. nal spiiit never showed its brazen front in this or any other oauutry."

Austrian batteries, and thirty wagons of their sick and wounded, had-re-entered Pavia from the Gravellone. On the 'Morning ()I the llth. also, about 3,oooAustrians passed the Po at the Stella, the Commandant-Gen eral being at the Beet.; on the left bank of the river. • Siege artillery, a regirtient of in fantry, and a detachment of chas.scurs repass ed the Gravellone in the direction of Cssal Pusierlengn. The Mayer of Straddle re ceived from 'the enemy -an intimation to mend the national road which goes to Piacen za. Many of the troops were con centrating between Mortara Palestro, and ßobbio, their headquarters beingg still at Myr . - tara. They had withdrawn the two bridges which they had thrown over the Sesia, in the neighborhood of Palestto. The statement .was made from San Germano on the 126, that on the same morning a troop of the-Sa voy Cavalry, commanded by Lieut., Spini, fell in with a patrol of the Kaiser hussars. and put it to flight, killing one soldier and taking andther prisoner. It was on this day that the arrival of the Emperor Napoleon at Genoa took place. The Sardinian head- Oquarters were transferred on the 13th to ceimiamo. Previously, the following had been issued from the principal hrad-quarters at San Salvetore, under date of May 12 : Reconnoissances made beyog the Po have assured us that the enemy has almost totally Abandoned the position he occupied in the vicinity of the left bank of the river. Ver celli is still occupied by a small Austrian corps. The-sanitary and moral state of our troops continues to be satisfactory. (Signed) DKLLA RoccA.” A Turin letter of the 10th; in the Nord, says: "The retreat of the Austrians is, attributed to a movement of the French from Genoa and Novi on advance against Piacenza, Cre• mona, and Mantua. A eneral Garibaldi will set out to-morrow lvrea, whr nee he will probably make for the Lag° Ma g giore, and then proceed toward Laveno, the Lake of Co mo, and the Valtelina. There he will, be able to carry on the warfare best suited to volunteers. We ought not, however, to be lieve that theie gallapt fellows can only shoot like sharpshooters; one of their battalions has already fought at Caiale, where, after be ing three hours under fire, it drove back the _Austrians at the point , of the bayonet. - I will give you an instance of the gallantry of our bersciglieri. On the latest attdrept of the Austrians to thrOw a bridge across the Po, eight beriaglieri demanded permissiop to io And burn the part of the bridge already COM , meneed•on the opposite bank of the river; :hey got into two small punts, one of which sank, and the three men, in the other were -wounded; but one of the bersaglieri succeed ed in posting himself beneath the bridge with the straw he had taken- with him, and in set: tirig fire to it. After this he came back. "You cannot imagine the dash and enthu riasm both of our troops and volunteers; their:impatience to fight is extreme.; they are especially irritated at the infamous acts com mitted by the enemy, who Drily stein's to have come among us that he may 'eat, drink and 'steal. A general attack is imminent, and it is hoped that 04 road to hfilin will loon be open. The following letter has.-been received in Paris from GeaCia, dated the 11th lost : The latAing of troops, and warlike stores continues, and every day fresh troops arrive from To on or Algeria, to join the corps to which thEY belong. We }lave now a respect able force in Italy—l2o,ooo men at least.— The cavalry camp here is pla'eed near the Pi hi gate, outside the fiartifimtions, on a hill which slopes down to te Stenevasso, a rivu let which is at present dry. 'The white tents scattered over the meadow, the horses pick. eted, the cannon mounted on their carriages, the artillery carts, and the continual move. ment of the army, present a most extraordi nary appearance. Since the rain ceased the enemy moved forward, And offensive dispo sitions have been observed for the last two days- There was rather a brisk engagement on the night of the 7th, near . Casale, between the Italian Volunteers commanded by Gari baldi and the Austrian troops. The details of the affair are as vet but imperfectly known, but it has been ascertained that the enemy lost a considerable number in killed and wounded, and 'among the killed a colonel.— There Were likewise 42 prisoners made, who were brought to 'Alesatmdria.

The Military and Financial "Odds' - of the - • Conflict. - The campaign which began by the 4htry of the French troops into liivitnont,.and by the passage of the Ticino by the Austrians, is oat kkettla Whiai cery,tor exceed! any' tor bier sirtiggrea 'in those countries. In. the long wars of the . firit Napoleon'. it may 'be observed that ,the armies contirually ! in creased in number, while, It is said, the gen ius of the commander and the prowess •of the individual sold ier diminished: The brill lent campaigns of Napoleon's youth were made at the head nt a new thousand men.— Marengo itself was pined by 4 28,000, bur the wnr- of 1805 actively employed about 150.000 ofilhe French, while in the cam paigns of iVngram, Moscow, and Lelpsie we have icerlmparnbly larger armies brought in=' to the field ott both sides, Now, the war of 1850 begins on the colossal settle of the lat ter Emoire, and the armies employed may attain dimensions such as no single State.has hitherto . been capable vf producing. Pre suming the re niggle to be confined to France and Austria, mid to the field of Northern It aly, we shnll have the spectacle of a combat in closed lists such as the world has - never be fiire witnessed. It both the antagonists fight. well and stubbornly, the conflict will he :as interesting to the military critic as grievous o4he philanthropist. Both France and Ans. trig will be able to march almost all their enormous forces to the seat of war. Ger- Many will, Ade the war is confined to Italy, be sufficiently the ally of Austria to guaran tee her front any attack in the rear from Rus sia, but not sufficiently to disturb France by any demonstration on the Rhine. It may be said 'that, for some time to come at least, the influence of Germany will have the ell : eat of leaving both sides free to use all their strength against melt bther. That they will use it there is no doubt. l s hc seat of war adjoins the territory of each, rattnys and dimmers transport their troops easily, and most of the long blotches, which enfeebled. and dimin ished armies in the days of Napoleon, will be avoided. • Enormous 'masses of armed. men can be taken to the country they are to fight in as comfortably as if they were mere.: ly making a change of quarters: With this facility of transport, and this poyrer of using the-whole of their great standing armies, we must expect to see two hosts gathered. to gether on the plains of Italy such as no two single States ever yet opposed to each other: The numbers we do: not pretend even to guess at. The French are pushing troops over the Alps, and loading their ships of war with soldiers for Genoa. - The supply of food will be the only limit to the number which can thus be brought into the field. The French probably hate their information about the Austrian army., as the Court of Vienna has its awn about French proceedirws. But Englishmen are allowe'd to know little about the matter. There is, however, no doubt that the Power which sent a quarter of - a million of men to Sebastopol within eight een months will be able to send -that number into Northern Italy, Considering that 'the whole of Italy,. with 27,000,000 people, may shortly be in Insurrection, and that Sardinia has some 80,000 troops of her own already, ft now bo r0dk00...411:- +lllbort --esogovatio, that more than $OO,OOO own may in the next two months be put in fine to drive the Aus trians from their carefullychosen and now famous positions in Lombardy. Ott the oth er hand, Austria' can, and will, -no doubt, bring an equal force into the field. She does not.want men, for the empire contains 33,- 000,000 souls,, without counting the Italian Provinces: If the Finance Minister can find the money to keep 300,000 men on foot in- Italy, General Gyulai will find work forthem s all. They will not be men to fight with the spirit and dash of Frenchmen, but they will be fine troops, superior. in physique to their enemies; they will have all that science has achieved itt the way of perfect weapons of destruction, and they will be commanded by officers who - know that the -eyes of Europe are upon them, and- thSt they 'mist fight now for the very existence of their empire. AMERICAN TRAVELERS is Ecnnex.:—One minor eflect of the European war that must operate to'our advantage, will he to turn the tile of travel which has been setting from this country with an unprecedented' current during the past year. For more than two months past, the passports issued from the Departments of State; have averaged over sixty daily, exclusive of the. travel to Eng ltind direct, whi requires none, and those issued_ by our MI 'ster there fo'r the coati.. vent. An immense mount of money is thus annually withdrawn, d without any return whatever, which might beneficially spent at home. Some idea may formed of the Lush abroad, from the simple ct that, on a recent occasion, nn less than MeV Ameri cans were presented at the. French G,urt,and somewhat to the amusement of criticising spectators. Poor Mr. Mason had a , hard' time of it, doing the hewn for- his fellow countrymen, and especially his fellow - coun trywomen. .

Posi tions which involve the policy of legislation must be filled by men who are not of inimi cal opinion., in order to give oneness to the, Government; but that corrupt, depraving, unnational, and disorganizing idea which was introduced by the modern Democracy, and adopted by the old Whig party in a spirit of retaliation, " To the victors belong thespoils," is both folly and crime. !There is real /dan ger of dissolution of the Union by total jde moralization of our political system, from this.proscription for independent votiVg.— The elective franchise is not held as the right of freemen, but as the barter of demagogues.
