The editor of the Republican having
stated that Gen. Cass adiocated the doctrine
of perpetual allezidrce, we took occasion to
remind him of hi. ermr,advising him to cor
rect it by publishing Gen. C's opinion:, Last
week, in pretended, compliance without sug
gestion,the editor repeated what Cass stated
was understood to he the doetrine of the
French govercment,-butlwithheld hia opin
ion'abich denies tbe soundness of the French
doctrine. This is an evasive trick that any
boy could resort to, but is hardly worthy of
a candid journalist.
. Now as the Republican has seen fit to
state that Gen. Cass, and the Democratic
party, admit the old idea of European mon
archies, which is opposed to expatriation, we
take-this occasion to deny the correctness of
the statetrient, and assert that Gen..cau, and
the Democratic party, unqtalifiedly declare in
-favor of the right of expatriation and natur
alization, and consider the nattralized citi
zen, when abroad, to be entitled to' the full
protection of our government.
For the correctness of our assertion, we re
ferto ibe published opinion Of Gen. Cass, his
instructions to our minister'at Berlin, in the
case of Ernst, which were given by authori
ty of the President and Cabinet, the opinion
of ttornex:Generatillack. tba Adkosiv of the.

Pennsylvania, - as, well as the views of the
Democratic press, generally.l,
By publishing these or the substance of
them; the' editor will Convince his readers,
if not hiinself, that he was mistaken, or mis
stated facts. It is strange that a subject of
such vast importance should be entirely
overlooke4lby any newspaper publisher, as
Las been the case with the editor of the Re
publican, and that he should, instead of pub
lishing the important and authoritative opin
ions of our goverriment, content himself with
Simply giving the views of the French govern•.
meet, and then incorrectly stating that sect
were the views of our government, and the
friends of the Administration.

Nei England was held .in Boston last week;
to take into consideration the COlllBO to be
pursued by them in the coming Presidential
canvass,. and the best means of proMoting
the mnral,_. social and political elevation of
their race. The attendance gm large, and,
from the report, we judge that not a few
white-skinned sympathisers _were present=
Wm. Loyd Garrison being one of the orators
of the day. "Several "cullud brudders l ' pro
ceeded . to "ease dar mines," and resolutions
were read, which, among other things, declar
ed that white peopte were equal to negroes ;
they also took occasion to dictate opinions
as guides for the Judges of the U. S. Courts.
Their ridiculous condescnsion is no less con
temptible than their impudent assumption
cf judicial wisdom.. Butior their going out of
they are , much tq blame than those white
fanatics who wickedly, encourage it, and it
tempt to create false sympathy for the black,
for base purposes.
Garrison in his speech declared that noth- -
ing had gratified him so Much - -as the reputa
tion which be had gained of being a b!ack
man, and so long as slavery Amnia exist
upon the face of earth be begged to- be re
garded as a thoroughly :died- in the wool
black man. "To this complexion had it come
at last," that color was no protection against
the encroachments of the slave power; white
as well as black were-alike 'slaves upon - the
Plantation. It was absurd for-him'or her to
suppose' that color would protect them from .
being made slaves. _ lie thought it time to

If the following statement, from a French
journal, be correct, one of the most important
French courts acknowledges the right of ex-
patriation
Juthen, the well known chef I:tin-desire of
London, basing come to Parii - in May last,
was arrested for the non payment of a bill of
exchange given top Mr. Chapelle; but in or
der to obtain his release from prison, be had
himself declared a bankrupt. On Thursday,
M.Delepierre, 'who holds the bill of exchange,
and woo bad opposed bir die:Alai:l;e, applied
to the Tribunal of Commerce to . order the
declaration of bankruptcy to be set aside, on
the ground that M. JuHien bad bean natural
ized an Englishman, and could not, therefore,
enjoy the privileges of a Frenchmen in a case•
of billikruptcy.
Jullien,Jit reply, represented that as the
letters of naturalization he had" obtained in
England stipulated thit he could be neither a
member of Parliament nor a minister to the
Crown, nor a grand dignitary of state, be
:could not.be considered an -English subject,
but only as a denizen of England ; that letters
of full naturalization in England can only,be
Accorded by Parliamentwhereaehis had been
given by a Minister; and that having return
ed to France be had recovered his French na
tionality. t the Tribunal held that, having
obtained all he rights' and privileges of as
British subject, absent from certain restric
tiqns,allowed by an act of Parliament in 1832;
and having taken the oath of submission and
allegiance to the Queen of England, he was a
naturalized Englishman, and consequently
could not be declared a bankrupt in France.
In consequence of this decision, the appli
cation made by Jullien, to be set at liberty,
was rejected.—Galignald's Messenger, June
27.
A correspondent of the Washington Con
stitutien writes as follows from Bedford :
"President Buchanan is still here, and, is
visited 'by large numbers of his old Peansyl—
vania friends and neighbors. I noticed quite
a delegation of Bedford county farmers
wending their way to his rooms on Saturday
last.. Mr. Buchanan receives these sons of
toil as becomes a Democratic President, and
they.seem to appreciate fully. his genial and
warm-hearted bearing. Some of them, lam
told, came thirty miles to take the Old Chief
by the - hand. Demagogues' may slander
and re - vile—enemies may lay their snares for
his feet—false friends may go on in their
work of treason • but the people—the great
popular heart 'Of the Union—are with the
Administration of Seines Buchinaii.”.

from the Erie Observer, speaks our sentiments
so completely that's's transfer it to our col
unins,and trust our friends in the county
riill act upon the suggestions by keeping us
advised of whit is going on in their locality:.
Everybody thinks jtaa easy matter to edit
a piper. We are fiequently told, by these
who are imbued with this idea, what a news
paper should be like. One would have it full
of foreign news, another wants the speeches
of this or that greatman, is - third thinks poli
tics a - bore, and would have none of it, a 4th
would exclude all advertisements, and devote
the space to the sto;"..",
-of Cora Cobb and Dr.
Robinson, - or other writers for the Ledger and
the Mercury, a fifth insists that all love sto
ries are insufferably stupid, a sixth think' we
do npt pay'eurigh ,attention to local' news,
and tells us that We have never noticed the
monster squash or Mammoth cabbage of his
neighbor Jenkins,—and so on to the end:of
the fault tinders' chapter. Now we submit
that it is impossible to please all these diverse
tastes, and as the next beet thing, after pleas
ing everybody; is to please one's self, we try
to do that, and trust to luck fur the balance.
But there is one thing we could do, which
would please a great many of our readers, and
which we would do if we could receive the
help necessary, and that is to make our col
u'mos a more perfect -transcript of the goings
on in the county. But we cannot do that
unless we receive the cordial help.of all our
friends in the carious townships. Matters are
occurring every day in different parts-of the
county that possess a local interest all over
it, which if we Could be furnished-the partic
ulars, we could dress up foe-our columns, and
thus give them an interest heretofore un •
thought of. It is impossible to berwery w here
—to be here, in our office, attending to our
business, and at the same time takiiag an ed
itorial observation over each township. But,
if some friend in each township, would spend
half an hour as occasion may demand in wri
ting us 'a letter, stating concisely what hes
occurred in his neighborhood, we would then
be able each week to spread the same before
our readers. We think we hear several who
read-this article respond, "But.„l sin not com
petent to write for the press," &c., &c. We
do not ask you to write for the press-we only -
want you to write to - us whenever anything
new occurs in your neighborhood—and out
of the information thus furnished - we will pre
pare it for the press. If your neighbor Jones,
or Smith, or Brown, breaks his leg, disables
himself with his (tidying-machine, or has his
barn; or house, or any thing else struck with
lightning, write us the
_particulars. • If some
foolish misanthrope, tired of life, shuffie off
v i.r a t without Ele p lp wa gf
to know
it, for of such „paragraplis are' newspapers
made. In short ; whatever occurs in your
neighborhood, give the -.particulars and we'll
make a note of it—and thus one of the corn
plaints, alluded to in this article, that too lit
tle attention is paid to the local at:farts of the
county, will be removed. Think of - Ibis,
friends, and next week,, or the week after, or
any time the "spirit moves" and the occasion
demands, as the fish said to the angler, "drop
us a line." Marriages and deaths should al
ways be reported.

Sincerity versus Hyputrigy.
The following extract from the Pranklin
Patriot, published at Farmingham Maine,
would lead to the inference that-there is more
hypocrisy among the Republir..a s os of New
England, than-we were aware of: To read
the account they publish of the holy horror,
in which they profess to bold negro slavery
reedsVeMeik i iii r tiPtifit ai gf r r t rAjitA n g"
from the sale.of 'their colored - breihten. We
find, however, when-gain is in question their
principles take a back seat, and that they
are as eager as the slaveholders themselves; to
profit from the traffic in the bodies and souls
of men. ; This single incident demonstrates
the hollow-beartedness of their profiesion. _
"Mr. Rice died some three years ago, in
Boonville, Missouri, where he resides, leaving
an estate of some fifteen thousand dollars,
about half of which consisted of slave prop
erty. Dying without issue, his brothers and
sisters, and their representatives, inherited the
estate. Three of these heirs resided in this
town, one in Strong, one iu NeW Sharon, one
in Firette, one in Gaidiner, and One-in Low
ell, Mass., and every one of tlieM belong to
that class who are ever ready to shriek for
freedom" and shed crocodile tears over the
sufferings of the "poor slave." As these slaves
came into their bands without any effort, cost
or sacrifioo on their part to ebt.i. ahem, ,it
would certainly be more reasonable to expect
sir liberation at their bands than the South
ern elaverroltiers who have paid for their slaves,
acquired them as they do other property, been
accustomed to their services and familiar with
the institution all their lives; yet the result
proves the reverse to be true. These-consci
entious anti-slavery republicans unanimously
decided to have their slaves sold into that
perpetual bondage which they have so stren
tionply denounced as the "Aim of villainies."
Their decision has been carried into effect.--s
The slaves have been sold by the administra
tor in Missal:lA, by their order. A gentleman
of this village, who went to Missouri as agent
for the heirs to close op the estate, hire putt
returned, bringing with him six or seven thou
sand dollars dividends•rising from the sale of
slaves and other property up to this time, •
portion of the property having been sold on
time, the proceeds of which are not yet avail
able. Doubtless these 'freedom and human
ity" brethren will continue to advocate the
abolition of slavery-qingling their slave mon
ey in their pockets while they , abuse Southern
slavebolders, including those to whom they
have sold theirs, for not liberating their bond . -
men. Such is black republicanism in New
England."
Where are they Going if
:Sihce the great Forney manifesto, in the
shame of en address, to the •so•called State
Rights Democracy was issued, in which the
faction be beads" was advised not to support
the regular Democratic Stile ticket, it has
been wondered Where Gov. Packer would go,
or what his friends Would do io tho matter.
He has,. maintaieed a stubborn silence, pub
licly. but the following, which we clip from
the State Journal, the new Opposition paper,
just issued in Philadelphia, throws some light
upon the subject, and looks as though some
body bad gained his confidence. The para
graph reads as follows:
" It is generally uriderstood here that die
friends of Governor Packer over the State
will vote for the Opposition candidates for
Auditor General aud Surveyor General?'

• ALBANY, Aug. 3.—A terrible accident oc
curred on the Northern Railroad, near Sch.3igh
ticoke, last night. The down train, doe in
Albany at 7.25 P. M., while passing over the
bridge which spans the Tombannock, was
precipitated into the creek below, a distance
of twenty to twenty-five feet. The water was
about six or eight feet deep. Over thirteen
persons are reported to have been killed.
Aug. s.—The inquest on the bodies of the
killed by the recent railroad disaster has been
ooncluded, the jury returning a verdict to the
effect that, as the Schaghticoke bridge ...was
known to be unsafe, the Superintendent and
Directors should be held responsible.

folloiingarticle in its editorial- columns in
reference to the forged letters which Forney,
of _the Press, hu been publishing the. Past
week, purporting to be'written by Mr. Jenks
at Washington City, to James Buchanan,
who is now. sojourning at Bedford Springs,
and visa versa. A man so lost to allpioci
ple as John W. Forney is, can be guilty of
anything, no matter what, if be thinks it is
calculated to ~injure the Democratic party.
But the article speaks - for itself:
"Physical or mental prostitution forms a
subject that never fails, to awaken a feeling
of sadness in the bosom of the calm, philo
sophical observer of events. Moral degrada
tion must eventually sink ilt< possessor into
oblivion; no matter_whether, white acting a
brief part oo the stage of human existence,
he ia-surrounded be admirers, or has his own,
or the wealth of others at command.."Occit
sional"-ly we observe men rise. in position by
the hand of warm, genuine friendship; and
again our moral] sense • becomes • shocked,
on beholding him turn, like the snake - in the
fable, and sting his benefactor. He who can
bemean himself so much as to pay a debt of
ingratitude, forfeits all the respect' of honest
men. Morally speaking he is an. outcast,
whose every treed is poison. He is a thing
to bearoided as he crawls. He is as loath
some se a viper. He forfeits all right to the
"benefit. of clergy," and wins for himself an
ignoniinious grave, into which at last he
sinks, "unwept, nnhonored and unsung."

PROGRESS IMPOSSIBLE. •
THE GOAL REACHED AT A SOUND.
We call this the_age of progress. It is so.
But in some departments of science diicover.
ies have been made, and —practical systems
introduced, which leave nothing to be desired '
in the way of improvement, and which, in
fact, preclude progressby, giving us perfection
at the. outset. For example, when Professor
Holloway, some twenty-five years ago, gave
to the world his inestimable remedies, he
seems to bate left nothing even for himself to
achieve, in the treatment of human maladies.
The progress of the demand for bis Pills and
Ointment has, indeed, been onparalelled in
the history of medicine; but he has found no
reason to alter a single ingredient or vaif. a
proportion. We therefore class the sovereign
antidotes for external and - internal diseases
with which thatdistioguished medicaLreferai
er has blessed the world, among the' Inven
tions which ate perfected at their birth.
Ourmethod of arriving at-a correct appre
ciation of the respective merits of_ opposinjr
.y.tensa, Now, we hive
seen a great i . , deal' of what is called regu.
tar practice, and do not hesitate to say that
it fails more frequently than it succeeds.
This is not the case with Holloway's Pills and
Ointment. In many instances—some of which.
should be specified if splice permitted—we'
have seen these remedies effect complete and
perminent cures,. when. eminent members of
the faculty bad exhausted their repertoires
without finding anything that would even al
leviate the agonies of their patients. Testi
mony confirmatory of our own observations
on the subject is continally pouring ip from
all parts of the Union, and we cannot refuse
credence alike to our owe senses, the common
sense of the, public, and the almost universal
opinion of our brethren of the press. _
The case as between the Faculty and Pro
fessor Holloway seems to stand thus : The
faculty have the prestige of antiquity, au 7
thoity and, usage.
Holloway, on the other hand,is not a man
of mouldy maxims. Small respect has he for
Galen and gemmon. •Ha cites no-authorities;
save living witnesses and cotemporary fad's.
