ftaaranteo to Turkey her solidarity and ißdirid
n ility of .character as a power, for that sho U
preparing herself to tffaoe forever; but
by the aid of France, eventually to spread the
British .kingdom over Turkish dominions; to
oohtrol tho Black Sea and Constantinople; and
to build up such an alliance of power that they
can say to the' nations of the western os well ns
the eastern Hemispheres —•* thus far and no
farther sbalt thou go.” England professes an
indescribable horror at the fast that the sjmpa
thies of Republican Atoerioa, Democratic Swit
zerland, and tho most liberal Btates of Europe,
Sweden and Denmark, should nssnme distinct
■ neutrality between her and barbarous Russia.
‘ While fully bont on her old game of conquest,
she goes to war with Russia under the pretence
- that it is to protect Turkey and prevent the Czar
■ ftom seizing a portion of her territory. Now a
simple fact, known to every reader of history,
will expose the miserable subterfuge of tho cou
oeited Islanders in this matter. In the last cen
tury, for every single square milo of territory
that Russia has taken by foroe, England has ta
ken "five. During the lifetime of tho present
Czar, Russia has not stolon one foot of Turkish
territory, while only twenty five years ago F’ anee
—one of the present protectors of Turkey —with
far less provocation from the Mahomedans than
Russia has recently had— stole Algiers from Tur
key with shameful butchery. Even England, to
this day, has never dared to recognise the right
of Franoo to that portion of tho Turkish do
mains, by tho appointment of ministerial or con
sular officers in Algeria. How do these
honest facts square with the pretensions of
these two powers at this time ? I leave your
readers to supply the comments.
After having Imperfectly reasoned this sub
ject in a hasty review upon the possible suppo
sition that the paoifio intervention of the Amer
ican nation could be accepted, let nB come back
to the proposition and look at it, as it mußt
and will bo received. The contend ng par
ties l oill not accept the United Statu as a mediator.
The measure will be met, If not in terms of in-
Bult, certainly in disdain. And what in our his
tory has ever ooourred to compare with Booh a
finale 1 The United States Government, raised
up from the blood of exiled patriots; and, by
tho favor of Providence, having become the
greatrtt, the noblest, and the best in the world
since its foundation, to go begging of rotten
monarchies for the privilege of dabbling n their
quarrels, and to be scornfully refused. No, our
mission is a far different one from this. It Is
to build op, by honorable deeds, our own in
ternal greatness; to stand ready to spread our
banner over those weak States, whioh, profiting
by our example, learn to be wise and ask for
admission into onr Union; to striko tho battle
axe of truth deep into tho brains of hereditary
monarchies, by furnishing in our course the un
deniable proofs of man’s fitness for self-govern
ment ; to hold out encouragement, by our on
ward progress, to tho fettered spirits of tho en
slaved who yearn for freedom; to offer homes,
where man is truly freo, to the oppressed of all
lands; and our mission cannot be filled by offi
cious mediation in European affairs. Let tho
monarohs of Europe struggle on; let them va
liantly crush each other if they will; they but
prepare and hasten the way to the inevitable
burst of Republican light and hope, which yet
awaits Old Europe. Fair Young Amerioa can
not hasten that day by her mediation; she may
retard it. Can she possibly choose the lattor ?
I have unexpectedly extended this letter to such
a length that I am indisposed to trespass fur
ther on your space, by reference to tho current
topics of news which you will glean fully from
the journals. The movements of tho allies, as
you will see, are again arrested by conferences
at Vienna, induced by the acceptance, on the
part of Russia, of the “ four points,” as a basis
for negotiations. This stratagem of Russian
diplomacy wonld not succeed in duping the allies
if they were not in the dilemma of a drowning
man, prepared to catch at a straw. They try
hard to ccnstrae it into an actual hopo of peace,
but it is not worthy of any such-construction.
The real object of it is, on the part of the Czar,
to furnish Austria with an opportunity of finally
making up her mind as to where sheWfcl take
bor stand. Russia hss counted Austria out
tong ago, and this is to put her fairly in tho har
ness. This done, then rises the star of hope for
Poland and Hungary. Austria cau go nowhere
. else but with the Western Powers ; her mission
is to protect despotism, and her company, con
sequently, must be the allies.
Sardinia has joined the Western Towers; this
was of coarse to be expected. Prussia ia not in
the conference, nor will she be.
Spain is again in desperate trouble, several of
the Provinces being in aetata of revolt.
Mr. Soule is preparing to tako his final leave
of Madrid. Ho will be in Paris in a few days,
on his way homo ; he expects to be In Washing*
ton before tho adjournment of Congress.

[We received some days ngo from Mr. Wm.
C. Millar the following account of an examina
tion recently had of the young pupils of tLe
First Fablio School, Duqaesne Borough. It

New Diplomatic oud Consular Bill.
On Tharsdaylast ariimportant bill unexpected
ly passed tho House, for the reform of our diplo
matic and consular system, which will probably
be concurred in by the Senate during tho pre
sent seeiion. This bill, which, last session, was
reported from the committeo on foroign affaire
by Mr. J. rerkins, Jr., of Louisiana, has been
carefully matured by that gentleman, and sus
tained by two speeehea of marked ability, the
last of which, relative to tho proposed consular
reform, was delivered before tho Houso on tho
6th in*t. The changes suggested in tho bill may
bo briefly stated no follows:
1. It ©Voltibea th« tkl.-- .-tf chargw raising all our
diplomats ȣent* to tfce rank tf tamtam pijnlpsuutiery,

through thoagpccy of other persona.
8. It substitutes fixed salutes fjr fees to connular and
commercial agents; abcUthes fijoa for passports, and all
commissions upon money advaorod as wages, or for tho ro

and reduces the tariff of f*rcs and commissions for other con’
snlar acts; defines, with more pr-.-cUion, the duties of con
suls In tho settlement cf tho estates of persons dying
abroad; abolishes ail Bub-agent 3 and vice-consuls, and pro.
videsfor the accountlngfor all fbos and commissions to the
government, to bo used a* a general fund to assist In paying
consular salaries.
We have no doubt this will remedy some of
tho evils of our present consular system. Aa It
is now, the Liverpool, Rio a&d Havana consul
ates are so lucrative that they are considered
prises of the very first class, and are sought by
every man who thinks he stands any chance
whatever; wbilo on the other hand there are a
hundred points whoro the pittance is so con
temptible that we oan get no American to take
oharge of the post, and sotno foreigner who has
never soon our country and has no sympathies
with it, is consequently appointed from noccsslty.
Secretary Marcy marked out a rule to appoint
none but cizens of the United States, but In some
Instances tbo salary Is so beggarly that it will
not justify & man leaving borne. We bope the bill
or something like it will bo noted on by both
branches of the present Congress.
Lieutenant General Soott.
That Republics are ungrateful we have all
read of and had it repeated, too, every day of
our lives; but that the Great Rcpublio is no ex
ception, we think, might admit of argument.
Sho has at least one loss sia of tb&t kind to an
swer for.
The bill that has been before Congress three
successive years, conferring tho titlo of Lieuten
ant General on Winfield Scott, for his emioeat
military services, is a law; or will be in an in
credibly short time ; as it only awaits the signa
ture of tho President. Tho war worn veteran
has now reached the honor he has so long co
veted ; and for oar own part wo are heartily glad
that CoDgretj.l has seon fit to confer a distinguish
ed mark of approbation upon the man who has
added more than any other one to tho lu9tro of
Amerioan arms.
Oen. Scott’s tastes aro purely military, and ho
will hence doubtless consider tho Lieutenant
Generalship as signal an honor as tho Presidency
of tho CJ. States. -It is too, in many respects.
The American people look upon the hero of
Chippewa as the most eminent military man of
bis time, and to show their appreciation of his
services they create a title that has heretofore
had no existence under our government. This,
we take it, is one of the highest compllmonta to
his genius as a commander that could possibly
be bestowed. We hope Gen. Scott may live many
years to enjoy It.
Again in the Harness —Col. Sam. Medary,
the old “ wheel horse M of the Ohio Democracy,
has taken oharge of tho Columbus Statesman
once more. We welcome Sam baolr moßt cordi
ally, and hope soon to hear of his having drag
ged the Hemooratio wagon out of the Free Soil
and Know Nothing quagmire in which it is at
present imbedded. He has seen Demooracy un
der blacker blonds than the present; and he will
live to see them all dispersed.
St. Louie Turned Up.—We received yester
day the first St. Louie papers which have come
to hand since the great snow storm on the

[Correspondence of Bally Morning Post.] t
LETTER FROM HAHBIBBCELG*
HAitßisßtma, February 13, 1855.
JDtitr Pott: This is the day for the election of
a United States Senator, and just now, 12 H., ;
the'two Houses hove met in Joint convention to -
proceed to the work. You will probably learn '
the result before this letter reaobds yon. This
morning Mr. Jordan, Senator from Bedford, in
troduced in the Senato a joint resolution provid
ing for the appointment of a Qommltteo to in
quire whether any improper means or influences
have been used in the canvass. Gen. Cameron,
you know, is very wealthy, and charges of bri
bery are freely made. The aommittco will give
those who have made the ohargos an opportuni
ty to prove them if they can. The ' resolution
passed both Houses with but one dissenting
voice. It is not probable that the investigation
will result in discovering any thing startling. It
has become fashionable to slander the Pennsyl
vania Legislature in that way, and sometimes
when there is no foundation for It.
Thero is a great deal of exoitement here abont
the election. Twenty-eight K. N.’s have signed
and published an address against Cameron,
though he reoeived the nomination of the K. N.
oaucus. This “ bolt,” it i 9 thought, will sunder
the party, and in the end destroy it. The “come
outers,” are, many of them, Curtin’s friends,
and the Governor’s. Curtin was the adminis
tration candidate, and his defeat is a sore blow
to the administration. Cameron has headed the
Governor, so far, and now heads the party that
elected Pollock. The Governor's popularity has
been suddenly eolipsod. Whigs and K. N.’s
abuse him roundly for interfering in this elec
tion. Mr. Curtin should have been satisfied
with tho office of Secretary of the Commonwealth;
but he is a fast man, and could not wait to earn
honors before claiming them. . Mr. Bnckolew is
the nominee of the Democrats, and will poll the
Democratic vote—27 or 28. Beyond that his
antecedents givo no promise. He is a thorough
going Democrat; an ablo and eloquent man, and
has been fivo years in the State Seoate. Thomas
Williams, Esq., may be satisfied that the old lino
Whigs all voted for him. But it don't toko long
to count them.
Cameron’s enemies were very anxious to pro
cure a postponement of tbs election. And now,
at 1J P. M., they have succeeded. The Con.
vention adjourned to this day two weeks, at 12
M. 1 sent you by telegraph, to-day, tho result
of the ballotings, so far as the principal candi
dates are concerned. The adjournment looks
bad for Cameron’s chances. His friends op
posed the adjournment, and were beaten. It 19
thought hoTe that he cannot be elected. It will
be a long time here for two weeks. There are
a large number cf candidates, and tho result
of this day's work will encourage desperate ex
•rtions. The U. S. Senatorship is a glittering
prize. It has drawn a large crowd of people to
Harrisburg to day. As the battle waxed warm
est in tho Convention, tho drinking, swearing
and betting ran high at the hotels. But the ad
journment put an end to all but the drinking
for the day.
Iu tho vote for Senator, Eystcr, Muse, Kirk
patrick, Guy and Smith all votod for Cameron.
Darsio voted for Williams ; and M’Cllntock
for Buckalew.
Mr. Da r sie voted fir the adjournment; all
of the rest of oar members voted against ad-

Shocking Scenes at an Kzeoatioa at Seir
Orleans
Wilhdtn Jung was hung ot New OrleatJfl cn
tho 2J iii St., for tbo murder of an orphan hoy,
of whom he was the guard tan. We gather
from the papers of that city tho following ac
count cf the revolting scenes that preceded the
exception:
Three days previous he attempted to commit
sniciclo frith a knifo which ho bad to *omc toys
terioas manner procured, and which he had
sharpened on the brick wails of bis solitary cell.
Ilis windpipe bad been oat, and his throat, from
oar to ear, had been hacked with a desperate,
but misdirected energy, which left it a complete
mass of mangled flesh. Ho had also rtabbod
himself la the side, and attempted to batt his
brains out against the dungeon wails, but with
out trail. Tho wounds vrero bound up with
lint and linen, bit it was with great diffi
culty be could bo kept alivo antil the day of ex
ecution. It appears, howover, bo walked to tbc
gallows with & firm step. So soon as the drop
folfetbe wounds in bis neck wore opened afrcßh,
presenting a horrible sight. Tho knot of the
ropo caught him directly under tho chin, throw
ing his bead back, and he lircd for some time
struggling most desperately. The windpipo was
entirely severed—the blood flowed copiously
from his throat and mouth, staining his white
neckerchief and cap—and the wind rushed
through tho opening with & frightful and most un
earthly lohd report, which caused every spectator
in the yard to shudder and turn away his head
io horror, The agony of tho sufferer must have
been intense. Ilia legs and arms, though firm
ly tied behind his book, writhed about for at
least ten minutes. The veins of his bands in*
otaasod In size. After hanging about fifteen
minutes, Dr. Sebastier pronounced him dead,
and his body was cut down and plaoed in a
rough coffin, and soon the ghastly, lifeless form
of tho child elaycr was forever hid from mortal
gaze. '
On Wednesday morning. February 14th, 1855, at 4 o’clock,
Mr*. KLIZABHTH E. M. MEREDITH, aged 20 years and
1 month.
The friends of the family are respectfully invited to at
tend tho funeral, on FRIDAY, at 1 o’clock, from tho r««l

LINK’S VERMIFUGE, which Is now universally acknowl

faculty (who ore so often opposed to the use of patent
medicine?,) cannot withhold their approval of this invalu
able remedy:
Li.vn, Stark county, Ohio, January 8,1849.
I have used Dr. M'Lone’e Warm f'pedfle in my private
practice, an am prepared to say that the unparalleled
.1 access with which I have proscribed Its u.«e, both for chil
dren and B<Jults, induces me to say the most In its favor of
eny specific or patent medicine ever before brought to ray
notice. The mode of administration, the smaUneiqi of the
dose, and the certainty of Its efficacious effects, give it, tn
my opinion, a decided advantage over any other medicine
of the kind before the public.
Purehascoa will pleas* be careful to ask for Dr. MH/ane’s
celebrated Vermifuge, aud toko none olse. All other Ver
