THE! NEWS.
There were 160 deaths in St Louis last week,
of whioh 102 were ohlldren.
Tho Amerioan Btato Council, met at Trenton,
N. J., on Wednesday, and passed resolutions
protesting against the 12thartiolo of the Nation
al Platform, and against tho repeal of tho Mis
eonri Compromise.
A. C. Bullitt, Esq., one of the editors of the
Now Orleans Picayune, has beoomo a member
the Christian church in Louisville, and was im
mersed by Elder Henderson. He has given fif
teen thousand dollars toward tho endowment of
the Christian University in Missouri—snob be
ing the desire of his wife, tho late Fanny Smith
Bullitt.
The British ship Red J&oket, with the Aus
tralian mails for England, pat into Rio Janeiro
oo the 19th of Juno for sopplies, and sailed ihe
following day. Sho had three hundred pasßen
gers and the immenso sum of three million dol
lars In gold, making, with the manifest of the
Bhlp Lightning, upward of fire millions of gold
shipped from Australia for England within thir
ty days.
A brutal murder took place on Satorday night,
near the Jefferson Barraoks, Mo , by a company
of fife U. 3 eoldlera. They were robbing the
hen roost of a Mr. Joseph Bchoeffer, who being
aron ed went out to see what was the matter.
In a moment or so after be went out, his wife
heard tho roport of two muskets, discharged
almost simultaneously. She ran out Immediate
ly and found her husband lying on the gronnd
dying, having been shot through the breast with
a musket ball, fle survived bis wound but a few
minutes, and never spoke after it The soldiers
at the barraoks are said to be a very lawless set
No arrests have yet been made.
GOV. REEDBa'S MISTAKE
We have all along approved tho coarse of
Qov. Reeder in Kansas, and hoped he would bo
continued in office and sustained. Bat in our
view be committed ono mlstako of a serious na
ture. When tho Legislature of the Territory
assembled he sent to it a message in the usual
manner. Ho thereby recognised It as tho lawful
Legislature, and was probably right in doing so
The Legislature then passed an act providing
for removal to Shawnee Mission. The Governor
vetoed this bill, and it was immediately passed
by a two tbirdß vote. Up to‘this time, then, ho
reoognised that body as the Legislature of Kan
sas. Bat on tbeir removal to Shawnee Mission
he Informed them that he should no longer con
sider them a legislative body, and their acts
would be void. His ground for this was that the
right of designating the place of meeting of the
Legislature was vested io tho Governor alone.
But they went to Bhawnee Mission and there
passed several bills and sent them to the Gover
nor for bis signature. Ro vetoed them. This
was a great mistake. It recognised the Legla
lature still. They passed them over his veto by
a two-thirds vote, and so they became laws.
That aot of tho Governor gives them all the
forms of law.
We are not disposod to find fault with the
Governor’s conduct. But it is evident that so
bitter had beoome tho quarrel between him and
the Legislature, and tho southern portion of the
settlers, that be could do very little good there.
It is seldom that so high handed an outrage as
that of the Missoarians in Kansas has failed to
meet a stern rebuke. We are muoh mistaken if
the rebuke in this case is not & severe one. The
ease presents not a question of slavery or free
dom, bat & question of the freedom of tho ballot
box, and the right .of the people of each State
and Territory to make its own laws. Missouri
giving law to Kansas la a novelty not to be al
lowed ; and Missourians undertaking to excludo
people from northern States from the territories
of the Union is an aot of andaoity that will not
be forgotten.
It may be well, however, to try another man
for Governor, for it was evident that Gov Reed
er oonld accomplish nothing. Ho had, in fact,
pleased neither of the parties there.
Asothib Steamboat Explosion Three
Liras Lost —The Oinoinnati and New Rich
mod packet Lanoaeter No. 8, CapL Conner, left
for Neville on Tuesday evening last, with an
unusually large amount of freight, principally
corn, taking along an additional foroe of thirty
or forty Irish laborers, to assist In disoharging,
and to enable her to make her usual time.
About 10 o’olock, she landed at Steptone on the
Keutnoky shore, and was receiving a lot of
wheat, when the larboard eteampipe bnrsted,
scalding five or six laborers. About five feet ot
the pipe was oompletely twisted off, while the
larboard oabln floor was torn np for ten feet
along the guard, and to the width of eighteen
inches. Medical assistance was immediately
procured, but three of the laborers soalded,
James Kinney, Patriot Kelly and Thos. Joyce,
-died-soon after. The Coroner’s Jury attributed
the oasualty to come defeot in the steam pipe.

Mb Cobden —This gentleman haainado one
of liia fearless and eloquent lbit*
iab Parliament, in whioh he denoanoos the gov
ernment for not aooeptihg the terms ofpfiacfi
proposed by Austria. Ho says it was a fatal
mistake that will cost England maoh blood and
treasure, and end witHont honor or advantage*
The empire of Russia, he believes, cannot be bom*
bled. He saye, too, that the people are losing
all confidence in their public men, and that the
events and disasters of this war have “used
np ” every political charaoter in England. He
says the war is unpopular with tho French peo*
pie, and must become more so as fresh levies of
men are called for; and that England has not
over 80,000 effective British bayonets in the
Crimea, and he adds :
“ When you soo the Emperor of Russia Issu
ing his ukases, and by cue stroke of his pen or
dering a lovy of 260 000 men, do yon think that
you oan oarry ou a successful contest with him
with 30 000 men, or that yon can do without
having an extraordinary levy of troops? ’
la conclusion he says :
“ 1 look ba °k with regret on tho vote whioh I
gave on tho motion which ohaoged Lord Derby’s
Government I regret tho result of that mo
tion, for it has coßt the conotry 100 000 000 of
treasure and between 20 000 and 80,000 good
lives. [Hear, hear ] Do not let ns, then, be
frightened by the threat of a change of Minis
try ; anything will be better than allowing the
oonntry to go drifting on in this war as it is do
ing. withoot any ono honestly declaring to it the
objeotof tho war. [Hear, hear] Does any
body profess to eolvo the mystery of what the
war is carried on for ? Is it to take Sebastopol ?
If it is, you must surround the plaoe with 240,-
000 men, and etarvo the garrison out. Are you
prepared to do that? Will you winter again in
the Crimea, whioh I am told is now the talk in
your oamp 9 You had the opportunity of
making peace, but the Government rejected the
terms that were offored. You have estranged
the other Powers of Europe from you, and left
yourselves without any other important ally
than France. Under these oirourastanoes I en
treat tho House to speak oat its honest convlo
tion. I see tho dangor that is before ua in tho
loss of confidence in public men ; and I only ut
ter my own firm persuasion when I say that I
look upon the noblo Lard’s (Lord J. Russoll’e)
conduct as striking tho heaviest blow that has
over yet been dealt at that oonfidenoo. [Hear,
bear.] As I wish well to our representative
system, I would earnestly exhort evory momuer
of this House who aspires to bo a statesman
sedulously to Bhun tho oourso whioh tho noblo
Lord, tbo member for London, has adopted in
this momentous matter.
Wo make ono other extract, where he speaka
of the mode of carrying on the war, and
of tho impossibility of taking Sebastopol on the
present plan
“Uatil you Sebastopol, and besiege it
according to 'he invariable rules of war, there
is no chance of taking lL Yon know this, and
yet you are oarryiog on the war under the pre
tence that you are fighting a battle for the lib
erties of Europe. (Hear, hear ) It is not very
complimentary to teJ! all Europe that you are
fighting for its liberties ; neither do I think that
the Germans, the the Danes, the Swiss,
or others, will ferl it sa a compliment tcFbe told
so; but if you do set up tbeeo mighty proton
slons, do not show year Impotence, or uso
threats which yoa cannot oarry out. I, as an
advocate for peace, tell you that I think this war
might have been avoided, but I ehare with the
rest of y->n tbo rid-cuio which is heaped on this
country for tho boast and braggadoolo which in
the end are attended by snoh bumble perform
ances We arc like the Chinese, brandishing
paper shields with tigers' heads on them, sound
ing gongs and blattering in the faeo of the
world, and expecting it to be frightened at theeo
our warlike preparations."

There is bolting all over the State. Mass meet

ticket. The K N't eay they will not abandon
all their principles and prejudices, and vote for
a '• red-moutbed abolition disanionlst." Tho
Gallipolie Jornmcl. a Whig paper, s*ys that to
support him Is “ morally impossible." The
Journal, speaking of the Convention that nomi
nated Chase, ecya .
“Astonishing a? it may ho to tho right think
tag, honorable voters of Ohio, this Convention,
in tho face of the grievances of the people by
exceseivo taxation, microle and rnispovorDmcot
in every shape, past and present. waived every
const deration for that of tho welfare of the oe

red-moutbed Locafoco Abolition DteaoionUt, for

seen whether the of Ohio will disgrace
themselves in the support of this ticket, with
Chase at tho head. Wo have oot the first parti

only rivet the ohaios of the negro the tighter.
“The ticket nominated by this Convention
may suit eomo of the hot-headed Abolitlooicts;
but for us to cepport tho ticket as it stands. is
morally impossible. We are no Abolition Dis
unionist, and have no sympathy with that

Tho feeling exhibited by the Gallipolis Jour

over central and southern Ohio, and not a few
in the northern part of the State, have deter

FROM MEXICO
THE PROPOSED ORGANIC LAW
Lata Intelligence from Mexioo states that the
principal toplo of disouaalon was a new projeot
for a constitution Which Santa Anna had caused
to be prepared for' submission to the Connoil of
State. Haring oonvoked a meeting of that body
on the 25th of June, bo made a speeob, in which
ho deolared that he had discovered that the
people desired a different form of government,
and he was ready to yield. Theroforo he pro
posed to the Connoil the consideration of the
threo following points:
Ftret — 11 Is it the proper time to give the coun
try a fundamental law ?”
Second —“ What kind of a law should be adop
ted t" and
Third —“ Who ought to give this law t”
The Counoil decided that now was the proper
time to frame thlß fundamental law. A com
mittee was then appointed, and on the 27th ult.
they reported :
Firtt—“ That his Most Serene Highness has
sufficient power to form the said Constitution.”
Second —“ As a means of oo operation for suoh
an important work, his Mobl Serene Highness
could ohooso two or threo individuals from each
Department, or recommend the said work (the
Constitution) to the Connoil of State. '
This being done, a decree was issued to the
Governors of the Departments, elating the faot,
and notifying those authorities to inform the
people in their justification that—
” In order to have the 00-operation of all who
wish to illustrate the matter by means of tho
press, they bavo full liberty to write and pub
lish by that meano their opinions in respect to
tho points indicated, provided they preserve in
their writings the proper moderation anddelloi
cy, and respect due to tho authorities, as well as
the regard due persons iu their private life. The
government never has wished to suffocate tho
iiborty of the press, which consists iu the de
ceit eluoldation of vjuestioos of general interest
without abuses Bgalnst morality, authority and
the laws.”
The idea of assoolntiog some two or threo
others with the Emperor was not a palatable re
commendation, but having commenocd the work,
he was obliged to go on, though his admirers say,
with no serious intention of providing a good
law.
One of tho resolutions whioh hove been adop
ted by tho Counoil of State on tho subleot is as
follows t
** Tho republican representative form oaght to
be adopted, fixing corresponding guarantees,
and combining the various parties In such a
manner as will insure its stability and public
repose.’'
Tho friends of Santa Anna assert that he
really intends to oall a convention, at whlob no
organic law of tho most liberal provisions will
be introduced. They aver that its object will
bo to tranquilisc present and prevent tho recur
rence of anarchy, by amalgamating tho wishes
and interests of localities and parties.
11 The law will embrace all '.ho freedom with
jnst [mutual] security for person and property,
of wmch tho most successful and happy nation
can boast.
“ It will not be a post /ado in reference to
exiting Interests under past or present organ
isms.
“ The church and all property interests, na
tional and individual, untouohed by tbs laws,
wil 1 descend to posterity dependent, as in all

BssrUßsndlng Calamity,
On Wednesday evening last, a gentleman
living near Commnnlpaw Lane, Hudson county
—we have not learned his name—met with a
sudden and untimely end, under the following
clronmetanoes: It appears that he had In hta
house a three barrelled pietol, loaded. Ho told
bio wife ho believed he would dlsohargo tho
load. She repliod that ihe would like to fire
them off—to whlob he oousented, instruotlug her
to be oareful to point the pistol upward. Sho
did so, and two barrels went off) tho third, she
told him, missed fire.
He replied that perhaps It might not be load
ed, and requested her to hand It to him for ex
amination. But alas 1 for all homan calcula
tions—she snapped It again; It proved to be
loaded, and sho holding It in a wrong position,
instead of the bail going upward, It entored the
heart of her hnaband, killing him lnatantly.
The married oonplo were dovotedly attached
to eaoh other, and we learn that the unfortunate
eelf-made widow, la now frantlo with grief nnd
unutterable agony, bordering on Insanity, In
view of this terrible catastrophe.

The Sifroei and Chase.
Two big, sanoy negroea have taken tho dump
for the Chase Abolition tloket in tho north

Abolition Convention In Loralne conuty, Ohio,
passed tbe following resolution :
“ Baolvei. That it is tho sense of this Con
vention that the colored peoplo are entitled to
have the elective franobiae given them.”
In notlolng these movements tho Oolumbns
Statesman well remarks:
*' This is a proper preolude to the ohange to
bo proposed if the Fusion tioket should be suc
cessful—giving to negroes In Ohio the right of
voting and eligibility to offioe. Yet the. ruling
wing of tho party who will do this thing, If in
power, aro pledged to shut out white Roman
Gatbolies a-d whito foreigners from the rights
with whioh that party wish to Invest tho

Where Mosquitos Come From*:
A writerou entomology, discussing about these
pests, thus bandies the eubjeo!:—“The moß
' qaito .proceeds from tho animalcules oommonly
feinted the wiggle-tail. I took a bowl of clean
water and set it In the sun. In a few days, some
half a dozen wiggle-tails were 'visible. These
continued to increase in eiso till they wore, about
8 16ths of an inoh in length. As they approach
ed their maturity, they remained longer at the
Burfaoe, Beeming to live in the two mediums
air and water. Finally, they assumed a ohry-
Balis form, and, by an increased speoifio gravity
sank to the bottom of the bowl. Here, iu a few
hours, I peroeived short black furze, or hair,
growing on every side of each, until it assumed
the size of a minute caterpillar. And thus its
speoifio gravity being counteracted or lightened,
it rapidly floated to the surface, and the slight
est breath of air wafted it against tho side of
the bowl. In a very brief spaoe of time aftor
terwards, the warm atmosphere hatched out the
fly, and it escaped, loaviug its liny house upon
the water. How beautiful, yet how Bimple I
After the water had gone through this pro
cess, I found it porfeotly free from animaloulse.
I thereto! e came to the oonolusion that this
wiggle-tail is a speoies of the shark, who, hav
ing devoured whole tribes of animalcu’es, takes
to himself wings and escapes into a different
medium to torture mankind, and deposit eggs
upon the water to produce other wiggle-tails
who in turn produce other mosquitos. ’
Any man who has “kept house” with a ois
torn in the yard has doubtless observed the
same effeot every summer. Open your cistern
oover any merning in the mosquito season, and
millions of them will fly Up In your face. Close
the windows of your room at nigbt, at the risk
of being smothered for wont of air, being caro
ful at tho same time previously to exclude every
mesquito, and go to bed with a pitober of that
same cistern water in the room, and enough will
breed from it during tho night to give you any
satisfactory amount of trouble. In faot, stand
ing by a shallow, half-stagnant pool, in a mid
summer’s day, yon may see the wiggle tails be
oomtng perfectly developed mosquitos, and
they will rise from tho surfaoo of tho water, and
fly Into your face and sting you. What it is ne
cessary to know at this day is—has there yet
been discovered any positive exterminator of
that infernal pest and disturber of night’s slum
bers, the mosquito ?
The Republic of Liberia.
Wo have always watohod, with deep interest,
the progress of the settlements of Liberia, look
ing upon them as destined, under tho smiles of
a kind Providenco, not 00)7 to furnish a safe
and happy Bsylum for tho Afrioau population in
his country, but also to exert an important in
fluence in Christianising and civilizing the nu
merous tribes finding their home upoa the vast
continent or Afrioa. And it is gratifying to
chronicle, from time to time, how their cherish
ed hopes are being more and more realized
John 0 Bradford. Esq , Purser in the Navy, re
cently made an address at C arlestown, Maos.,
which is entitled to more than ordinary atten
tion. That he is qualified to speak with empha
sis on tho state of matters there can Dot be
doubted. Mr. Bradford was cruising three years
on the Afrioau ooast, made freqaent visits to tho
Liberian settlements, and had much intercourse
with the citizens. Tho beat evidence of tho ja
diolous formation and faithful exeoution of the
laws is f inn i in tho oontonted, prosperous and
happy condition of the people. Tho statements
that havo been made to contrary ha pronounces
untqolvcoslly to be untrue. Bsys he—
“ During a period of service on the ooast of
Africa, longer than any other commissioned of
ficcr of iho (Jolted States aod with, I be*
lieve, a still greater share of personal inter
courso with tho inhabitants, I met with but two
individuals who expressed a desire permanently
to return to the Doited States. One of. these
was an old lady from Charleston, South Baroli
na, who had reached tho sixty fifth year of her
pilgrimago before landing in tho colony, a period
or life when it is not always agreeable or prac
ticable to break off old and form now attach
ments; and considering that this personage was
a maiden lady, without family interests or iofiu
ence, I think she was excusable; tho other sub
jeot was a worthless, idle fellow, who had offen
ded against the Commonwealth, and of course
disliked tho discipline for Bach cases made and
provided. I believe, sir, I can fearlessly assert
that tho general tono of the Liberian Colonists
IS contentedness, happinees, with a strong eensc
of gratitude to tho kind and generous frieuds
to too Uailcd States, to wboec courap;*oa3 ef
forts, under God, they arc indebted for their
homes, their country ond nationality.”
The geographical position of Liberia ie favor
able alike to commeroo and agriculture, ra
bracing over four hundred miles of coast, and
containing a population cslim&ied to exceed
two hundred thousand. It is well watered,
wooded, and luxuriantly fertile. It is pleasant
to observe, in vonous parts of tbia largo terri
tory, the comfortable homesteads of former
slaves of the South, now converted into thrifty,
Independent freholders of tho African Common
wealth.
Thb Stobt or Siavebv is Nsbbasea. A
correspondent of tbo N V Times, referring to
an advertisement cf slaves for sale, in thoftie
braskn City News, which has caused a great sen
sation, eayo tbst the parties referred to as im
porting slaves toNebraaka, aro Messrs Nuckolls
A Hall, owners of Ibc principal site cf No Crank a
city, extensively engaged in business there, and
owners cf a majority of the slaves in Aiobison
county. Missonrl. These men have had a few
slaves at work for them in household duties at
Nebraska oity, own tbo Nebraska City News,
and dictate the artioies whiob appear in it. The
correspondent of the Times says of the slave ad
vmiscmenr, and a few pro-slaverv articles that
havo appeared in the News:
"I look upon tho movo as eimply a piece cf
bravado at home, and probably designed to find
favor and approbation at tho bands or these
men In St. Louis with nhom they have business
connections. This is the key to the whole
affair. Tho Idea of olavery gaining a foothold
In Nebraska, Is utterly out of tho question."
Ltv* Stock of Onto — A correspondent of the
Lonisvtlle Conriqfc, ’* on traversing Ohio,
gives a very ,hc progress
made lu that Htu-f _ of live
stock, especially the breeds of cattle. Some
parts of the State, ouoh sb the oountios of Piok
away, Madison, Highland, Licking, &e., have
long been celebrated in this respeot, bat it is
within a comparatively few years only that all
sootlons havo gone to work Industriously and en
ergetically to improve the breeds of thoir oat'.lo,
and establish herds of commanding reputitlon.
Tho wrltor attributes this result, In a great
measure, If not chleby, to lagislatlou favoring
the establishment of agricultural soolotloa In all
tho coanticß. Men of landed estates and pecu
niary resources, are at the present time embark
ing energetically In the buslnoss of oattlo rais
