tub: bio spl.it
We have alre»Jy, throughout the Northern
States of the Union, three politics.! parties—the
democratic, the Republican, and the Amerioan.
Without a complete fuel on of tbo two laet in
1856, the Democratic candidate for tbo Presi
dency cannot fail to win. Can such a fusion be
effected T The present indications are decidedly
averse to such a consummation. New York pre
sents the two candidates for Presidential honors
moßt prominent in those two parties. William
11. Beward is tho oholce cf the Republicans. In
faot, that party has been got up through his
agenoy, and mainly for his benefit. He cairoot
be ehoved from the track. His party will stand
by him, and a pretty'strong force of K. N.’s will
rally to his support. Hut George Law has a host
of friends in the American party who will never
surrender to the Seward party. Tho Now York
Herald is the organ of tho George Law party,
and its influenoo is strong, aud bitterly hostile
to Wm. H. Seward. Its appeals in behalf of
Mr. Law are responded to by papers in all parts
of the oountry; and a portion of the Amerioan
party, it is evident, can never bo sold to Seward
and the Republicans. The American party for
next year will bo composed of three classes—the
Sewardltes, the compromisers, and tho uncom
promising. The Sewarditos will join the Repub
licans. The compromisers may go in the same
direction, under what they consider the necessi
ties of the case. But oQO-b&lf the American
party belong to the unoompromising ol&ss, and
will never yiold all their personal preferences,
and all their distinctive principles, and adopt the
one-plank platform of the Seward Republicans-
This uncompromising portion of the K. N.’s,
with Law and the Herald at their bead, will, In
some of the Northern States, form a majority of
the party. With them the Southern K. NJs will
try to coalesce. But whether that sucoeods or
not, a large portion of the K. N.'s of the North
will not eucoamb to the Sewarditos. Such a
yielding implies a dissolution of the Amerioan
party and an abandonment of all its principles.
Saoh is tho prospect cf a split that will render
our opponents powerless at the South, and so
divided at the North as will give to the Demo,
orate several Northern, and all the Southern
States for the Presidency.
Our cause is just, aud its prospects good.
We can work with the hope of success, and with
aealous efforts may win both this year and next.
Thb Best Route from Philadelphia to Chi
cago.—Tho Jiock Islander, published somewhere
in Illinois, states that “the best route befcjreen
Philadelphia and Chicago is a new one which is
opened from Niagara Falls to Philadelphia, by
moans of the chain formed by the Canandaigua,
Elmira, Williamsport, Catawiasn and Reading
roads. This route is quicker and better than
the Lake Shore and Pittsburgh one, whose fre
quent delays between Cleveland and Pittsburgh
render it the abomination of travelers.” This
statement is false in whole and io detail. First,
there are no “ frequent delays ” between Clove
land and Pittsburgh ; secondly, the difference in
dietanoe in favor of the Pittsburgh route is 108
miles; and the latter route beiog old and well
established, while the former is new and almost
untried, it must follow that it is the most speedy.
Passengers can leave Chicago twice daily, oxoopt
Sundays, and go forward via. Cleveland and
Pittsburgh, to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Wash
ington, by a closer and surer couneotion, in less
time, and with less delay, than by any other
route in cxistenco.

We recently examined seme passenger oars just

THE GAZETTE’S MK.W POIY.
Oar neighbor of the Gazette is great on hob*
bicE, and he has ridden all his old ones so
hard of late that they have become spavined,
foundered and wind-broken; and he has been
oompelled to hunt up a new one. Kossuth has
furnished him with the now pony, and it is evi- j
/denlly going to be ridden hard.
It seems Kossuth, who is only a private citi
zen, addressed a letter to the President and bib
Cabinet some months ago, iu wbioh he proposed
several questions aud demanded answers. Ho
prefaces his questions with a prediction that
Hungary and Italy would soon be in a state of
revolution, and then wauts to know what our
government would do about it; 'and whether
, our ships would be permitted to supply the rev
j olutionists with arms without being sabjeot to
soarch and soizure. The administration very
properly declined making any reply whatever,
aud Koßsuth’s letter remained unanswered.
This the Gazette thinks was a great outrage,
, aoJ the administration is taken to task roundly
for uot deciding important international ques
tions before they arise. It seems then, that, in
the opinion of the Gazette, if any man in Eu
rope is trying to get up a revolution against the
Auetrian, Russian, Italian, or even French gov
ernments, he may write to the President of the
United States and ask if help may be expected
from him ; and (be President Is bound to make
answer. The very statement of the proposi
tion reveals its absurdity. If the President
should answer that ho would assist tho
tionists it would involve our governments with
tho existing governments of Europe, and the
Qaztilt and ita friends would coudemn that in
discretion at once. If he answers that no as
sistance will bo given they ooademn him for
want of sympathy with the cause of liberty.
If he makes no answer at all he is condemned
for disrespectful treatment of a noted indi
vidual. Either way the President is wrong, of
course ; and it is supposed that some political
capital can be made out of 6uoh a humbug.
Every man of sense can see that tbo Admin
istration in that matter took tbo only propor
course that could have been adopted. Our
policy is non-intervention in European affairs :
and it wouli certainly be tho most dangerous
absurdity for our government to open diplomat
ic relations with private citizens in Europe for
purpose of promising tbom aid if they will get
up revolutions agaiosl governments with which

wo aro at peace.
That new hobby of oar neighbor won’t take ;
and it will be impossible to make capital out of
it. It is too ineffably absurd.
An Hon. Senator** Opinion.
Senator Becj. F. V. ;tue, of Ohio, reoently de
livered a speech before a Republican aodienoe at
Portland, Me., in which he expressed tho belief
that—
T “ There was really no union now between the
North and the South, and ho believed uo two no
tious upon the earth entertained feelings of more
bitter ranoor toward each othor, than these two
sections of the Ropablio.”
If Mr. Wado and tho miserable zealots with
whom ho acts represented “ the North,” we havo
no doubt tho result would bo as he eays ; tut
happily for the safety of the Republic they are
a minority—a very small minority. If, however
by any accident the faction of whom he ib a
Representative man, should gain the ascendency
in the National Councils, it ib easy to predict the
Union would not last a twelve-month. Their
fanatical course would drive tho Booth from tse
so sure as they have the opportunity.
Bub hear Mr. Wade's opinion of that earns old
Coon—the late Whig party, 110 said
*• There were in Maine, ae in the West, a few
who believed in reorganizing tho old Whig’party.
He (Mr. W.i had followed the fortunes of that
party with unwavering fidelity for raoro than
twenty years, and felt free to say {bat that par
ty is now not only dead, but etinketb. Ho wus
present when it died the death of a felon, and ho
stood thero to pronounce it dead, dead, dead.”

Gen. Cass repels an assertion in the letter of
Gea. Houston, of Texan, that be (Gou. V ) ap

Geo. Casy denies this, and refers to his remarks
In the Seoul* last February, when he expressed
hie ohborrouoo cf the attempt to organise poli
tical and religious Intolerance “in a country
fuuodcd upon emigration, and grown prosperous
and powerful hy toler&iiun. He announced in
the same speech his utter repugnance to tho new
parties and othet combinations of tho enemies
of tho Democracy, to fasten their odious and of.
ton rrjeoted policy upon the country. “We
want no new parties—no new platforms (he
said( “no new organizations—and the sooner
those dangerous efforts are abandoned, the bet
ter will it be for us, and those who are to follow
ae in this heritage of freedom.” He reiterates
these views. He relinquishes none of his oppo
sition to the secret order and its principles, and
he regards the Democracy as the only and true
Amerioan party.”
Obitdaby.— Ex-Governor Thomas Metcalf, of
Kentuoky, who died of Cholera, on the 18th in
stant, at tho advanced ago of seventy fire, had
filled some high offices in that Commonwealth.
He wta what is termed a self-made man, never
having received more than a few months school
instruction ; and at tho age of sixteen was ap
prenticed to learn the trade of stone mason. He
first appeared as a public speaker in 1809. In
1813 he commanded a company at Fort Meigs.
While in the army he was eleoted to the legisla
ture, receiving all the votes in his oounty but
thioteen. He was elected to Congress in 1818,
defeating Joahep Desha, afterwards Governor!
In 1827 he was the “ National Republican ” can
didate for Governor, and beat the Hon. Wm. T.
Barry, who represented the Jaokson interest, by
a majority of soven hundred and nine votes. In
1884 he was chosen to the State Benate—in 1840
made President of the Board of Internal lm- I
provements—in 1848 appointed to fill Mr. Crit- i
tenden’s unexpired term in the Senate. Since i
then ho has confined himself to his farm, situa
ted abont half ways between Maysville and Lex
ington. ■ The Louisville Courier say? that in his
old age, his intellectual strength did not abate
one jot, and that a stone mason by trade, he al
ways boasted of his service 1q that honorable
lino of tho meohanic arts, and delighted in being
called the “ Old Stone Hammer.”
The Wilmington Gunpowder Explosion-
Surprising Phenomena —The New York Ex
press says :
r “Some new foots of interest oonocrning this
explosion have been mado public by Prof. Olm
stoad, who mado particular inquiry for scientific
purposes. It will be recollected that the explo
sion was occasioned by fire from the oigar of
of one of the teamsters, while the wagons load
ed with ponder wero passing through Wilming
ton. Some of the phenomena were surprising.
A splinter from a Venetian blind was blown
through an inch board, making as smooth a
hole as if pointed with steel. Metals were often
displaced. The shoes were torn off the horses’
feet, castors from furniture, and hinges from
doors, and wagon-tire was torn off and straight
ened, and ono piece left on a hill a quarter of a
mile off. Windows wore destroyed for the dis
tanoe of more than a mile. Those near the spot
were burst in, the others out; those further off
were all buret out. A piano open near the spot
was but little injured ; one doted , further off,
was burst open and nearly ruined. The effeot
on the animal system was to produoe a sense of
suffocation at first, and afterwards soreness of
the throat, or oven hemoptysis. Many were
carried some feet and dropped ereot. A man ou
horsobaok was lifted out of the saddle and
dropped into it again. But the moßt wondrous
effeot was exhibited by three depressions where
the wagons had stood. The one under the mid
dle wagon was ten feet by five, and three feet
deep. It appeared that the earth (macadam
ized) had not been removed, but oondenßed.
Professor Olmstead knew of no instance of
greater power, even in the great explosion of
Brescia, where two millions of pounds of pow
der exploded, that equalled this. Iron water
pipes were broken four or five feet under I
ground." I

THE FUTI'RB O S' TURKEY—SPEECH
OF KAIIL GREY
£arl Grey, cce of Eaglaud’s ministers under a
former administration, Utcly delivered a epeeoh
in the House of Lords on the finances of Great
Britain, and the propriety of Her Majesty's gov
ernment guaranteeing the interest of the Turk
ish loan, in which he used this remarkable lan
guage :
We are, in the first plac-, made responsible for the whole
interest of the Turkish loan. ]f Turkey does not pay, and
1 roncnvf no man -in his senses believej that the Turkish
empire t mil be tn existent* forty years hence, or that tboro
jrt tun remotest chance of our not being called upon to pay
the interest which we hare bargained to pay. When we
have paid the Interest, It will be fur us to call upon France
to reimburse us her proportion, But looking at the future,
many changes nuiy take p'acc, and many questions may
arije between the two couutries which are now upon the
best po-isible terms. Having tom e supposed tct-q/T, Uih Fre.nch
government may claim the right of imlh'u liiinglhat jnxymerJ
W», on the other hand, not admitting any such right, may
intist on being reimbursed, and difficulties may arise be
tween the two countries.
Your lordsliip3 know the present state of that most cor
rupt of all governments, the Turkish government and that U
it turnout that, rf the money lohich ought to go into the
Turkish treasury for public purposes. Wo small proportion
goes tnlo Iht hands of corrupt pashas and griping money
tenders Y our lordships will remember the distressed state
of the Turkish anny in Asia last winter. By the concur
rent testimony cf all the newspapers, the state tn which
the army was reduced was, not because Turkey had not a
sufficient earn of money wherewlih to pay the men, but U
cause the unde had been the subject of unbounded pecula
lion In all countries there is a disposition to extravagance
in the expenditure of the government money, bot, in u
U.M!IIh l4 f7il ,k 2 jr that extravagance and peculation ilia
5 . 1 dld not intend to advert to this sub
ject, but h has been Incidentally raised by my noble friemJ.
Before I sit down, ue the bill before the Bouse provides ano-
Sn^^i^ , fi , |! l J ) [h £ ''? OU,OO0 ’ il ln im P osa bl « for rue to forbear
f» B & &riD “ nd re J fret wi th which I have received
tide proposal ror an additional loan. My ionls, we have ul
ready sanctioned a loan of £16,000,000 ; then there Is thr
guarantee of the Turkish loud, which, in ihe moat favor*,
ble view, la equal to another loan of half the nomina:
amount, £2,500,000; th-n the £7 000,000, which lh* ircv
?? w uut horixed to raise, making a total of
of borrowing which, Parliament has sanction
ed ID a einglrt session. My lords, I for one look soith the ut
most dumay on such draughts upm the rts-jurcts of the coun
try. My noble friend his already called attention to the
enormous amount of our present expenditure, for, In addi
tion to these loans and our largely-increased taxation, the
expenditure ingoing no at a rate that Is tru‘y frightful.
When the time comes that this reaction shall take pluce
and when injudicious reductions shall be called for, this
liouse will have Ojb most difficult question to consider, how
to relieve the people from the pressure of taxation ’ Your
lordships will remember that the stateof the world Is much
altered from what it was ln former days. Already a great
stream of emigration is setting out—on emigration notonlv
of the best of the population, but of those men who carry
with them t.o lacomdderahle portion of the national wealth
If your taxes press too heavily on productive industry. you
artificially increase that tendency by rendering it difficult
for men to live at home, and thus injure the very source® of
your power. The samo effect will be produced upon your
trad*-. In the present state of the world, with active rival*
on the other side of the Atlantic, with the competition of
your colonies to contend against, you cannot, without In
jury to the vital sources of your pewer, Impose tax«tku
upon trade aud Industry te«ond a certain amount; and
therefore, when peace returns, will find, it this ayatem
of loans Is carried much further, that you havo inflicted a
mos; irreparable injury upon tie couutry. I hope that
lhaee things will be considered nut only by your lordships
but also by the public, and that there will be a general Je
ftre to prevent the continuance of the present enormous
expenditure.
Notwithstanding the opposition of the noble
Earl, the bill passed through the Committee, and
will become a law without doubt But hie speech
shows what a peer of the realm thinks of the
future prospects of their ally, Turkey, for whoee
pretendod integrity Eoglaud is now shedding her
best blood and spending her vast treasures in the
Crimea. If the Turkish Empire is so near disso

Maeqdette, Marquette Co., Wisconsin.
Editors of tub Mosnino Post:
Genilmcn .- I send you a few items touching
the pleasantness, beauty, hcalthfulness and for
tlhty of this country, especially this county, and
this town more so. I looated myself in the town
of Marquette in the spring of 1860, when at that
time there were only bovod families; now there
arc near one hundred. Wo aro situated on Foi
river, (navigable for steamboats to Green Bay. )
which forma a lake here about seven miles long,
and from a half to one and a half wide, and very
pleasant plouty of fieb of rare kinds, and abun*
dance of ducks tr.d prairie chickens.
This county can't bo beat for raising wheat
banners who have been hero only six years are
getting wealthy fast. It would astonish any
person to travel through this county and see the
wheat. At a low estimate, there will be 200,000
bushels of wheat raised in this county the pres
ent year. There are a number will have from
1,000 to 3,000 bushels this year. There is not
eo good a site for a profitable flouring mill as at
this place. Wheat call be shipped from this
plaoe to Green Bay for CJ cents per bushel, and
flour for 20 cents per barrel; and from hero to
Buffalo for $1 per barrel. Wheat merchants
would do better by ooming hero to purebaso
wheat than any plaoe I know of, for 1 think that
staple will be eold bore for from ii'H to 76 cents
per bnshol, this fall.
We aro only in want of capital to mako this
one of tho first towns on Fcx river. We have a
bridgo in progress of building across the lake;
tho scat of justice is here ; and altogether, the
inducements which are offered arc great for
business men. We invito men of capital to come
and see for themselves, and we are Bure they
will not regret the trcnblo and expense. Horses
and cattle are high tu Wisconsin. We are in
want of a flooring mill, a foundry and a printing
pross A glass works would do well here, for
there is au abundanco of the best of sand, and I
am told it is of the beet kind for making glass.

The Foneuae or Abbott Lawrence. —The

people ; and the oloßing of the stores, the in

minute guns, gave the the appearanoe of a city

heartfelt, spontaneous tribute of respeot to the

THE MURDER AT THE INN.
Tho person, however, could not be found, and
after a deal of bustle, order was re3iorcd, and
the counsel for the'proaecutiou rose and com
menced his charge. This charge, and the reply
of oounsel for prisoner, my father would repeat
almost'word for word, oo deeply had every word
uttered been impressed upon his mind; but it is
needless for me to repeat it here, as tho reader
has already been informed of the nature of tho
evidence, and the facte appeared bo conclusive
against my father that no ono oould imagine
him otherwise than guilty of tbo crime with
whioh he was charged.
“ The only difficulty,” continued my father,
“ to ascertain what had become of the port
manteau previous to committing the murder,
and that 1 bad accomplices.
Indeed, people thought 1 had tracked tho old
gentleman from Albany purposely to commit the
crime, so easily are people prejudiced against a
prisoner when once the idea has gone forth that
ho is guilty.
The Judge had commenced to snm up with a de
cided leaning against me, and tho jury looked as
though they were anxious to pronounce the ver
dict, without leaving tho box, when tho same
voice that had before interrupted the court, ex
olaimed
“ lie is innocent, and nothing shall longer
cause me to withhold my evidence."
“ Bring that woman down here,” exclaimed
the judge, stopping in his summing up.
“ If she has no evidenoe to give, bat is mero
ly aotuated by feelings of excitement, I will
commit her—Buch persons have no business to
attend Buch scenoa as this.”
The general impression appeared to bo tbat
the woman was, as tho jadgo said, aoting from
feelings of excitement, over which she had no
control, and such was my own opinion, though it
was Btill sweet to belieyo that ono person in that
crowded court thought me innooeut when all
others believed me guilty ; for I had begged my
poor father and mother not to attend the trial.
The oouoeel who plead my cause, however,
'bought there might be some reaction in my fa
vor made by this occurrence, and Lis keen eye
oaaght the two accusers stealing out of the
court as ihe woman was brought forward by the
officers.
“I requeßt that tbo witness for the prose
cution be detained until this witness is examin
ed,” eaid my ooQoeel—whose name by tho way
was Lemon.
The jadgo ordered that they be detained.
“And now,” said he, as he turned to the female,
“ wlyU is the meaning of your interrupting tho
court iu this manner?”
“ 1 am chambermaid at tho Hudson Inn,” she
replied, “ and can prove that this young man is
unjustly accused.”
A ray of hope shot through my mind ; I rais
ed my head and my eyes oaught those of my ac
cusers. I saw that they were deadly pale.
“What havo you to say,” continued the judge,
still addressing tbo woman.
“ I wish to be sworn,” she replied, and the
oath was administered. Bhe then proceeded to
state as follows ;
“ My name is Hannah Smith ; I am chamber
maid at Hudson lon, but the house maid waa
anwe i on the morning in question, and as the
fires were to be lighted, I had promised to rise
and light thorn for her.”
At this juootare of the witness’ statemeot
Jenkins suddenly exclaimed;
“It's a lie! it’s a lie ! she has been paid to got
mo into trouble.”
“ You,” said Mr. Lemon, with a voioe tbat
rang through the court, “ sho has never men
tioned you. Does your coaseioiice torestall her
evidence ”
A murmur of sntprisc and interest ran over
the court, and tho judge leaned forward, his
eyes flied on the pale, working face cf Jen
kins.
"Where are you. Captain Moore ? ’ he exclaim
ed, “ where are you ? They are all against us
all—all you ebo—”
‘•Idiotl” hissed the captain through bis
clcnohed teeth.
I cannot allow this," said tho judge, “tiffi
cers take both these men into custody, but keep
them in the court."
" Mr. Lemon now turned to (ho wilness au.l
said, •• Hannah Smith, go on with your testimo
ny”
The woman oontioued ; " 1 went to bed early,
but about midnight I awoke, and it then occur
red to ate, as I was restless, that 1 would rise
end lay the tires ready for morcing. I got up,
and bad to crttES thdeuullory. As I-opened the
door leading ant, 1 si* Jenkins cross f.-cu: the
stable with the gentleman's cloak with the t,m
LiiriMi hanging over bis arm.”
“You are quite sure It was Jenkins veu
saw ?"
“I should not hava spoken bad I not hoerJ
hint deny that he took the gentleman’s cloak to
brash.”
" And this," said tho counsel, "you slate on
oath ?"
"I do.”
“ ' Vh 7. >0 tho early stage of this trial, when
you first heard the denial rf Jenkins, why did
yon not como forward at once and tell all you
knew "
11 I had hoped that other evidence would have
saved the prisoner, aDd would have rendered
mine needless, for I was engaged to marry
Jenkins, and though 6iuco the night of tho
murder, I have oast each thoughts aside, I did
not want to be his accuser.”
" And this is all you have to say ’ Thiß is a
favorable turn in the ovidenoe for the prisoner,
bat merely proves that ho told the truth re
specting the cloak, and that his aoouser swore
falsely.”
"It was not all. When I heard tho noise in
the inn, I was in the parlor laying tho fire. I
ran up stairs, intending to return to my bed
room, when I saw Jenkins at the other end of
the gallery, coming from the murdered man’s
room with the oloak wrapped around him. He
threw it off and stepped into the prisoner's
room, where he left it. In a moment after I
saw the prisoner pass out of his room into tho
murdored man’s in his night clothes. I was
frightened, and I hoard Captain Moore say,
‘ This is oapital, he is walking in his sleep. We
will secure him.’ I then heard a souffle, and
soon tbero was a orowd of poople in the houso.
I made my way to my room, and looked myself
in ; this is all I know of tho matter."
Tho witness was requested to stand asiJe, and
a ray of light was opened to me.
I had hitherto been at a loss to know how 1
had got into tho room, but now I rooollcoted
that onee or twioe in my boyhood, when exoited
afters long journey, 1 had frightened my mo
ther by rising from my bed and walking in my
sleep. - 1
I beokoned my oounsel and was about to ask
him to seed for my parents to prove that I had
a habit formerly, of walking in my Bleep, but
before I could there was a general murmur in
the court, and all eyes were turned in one direc
tion. Mr. Lemon turned and pointed out Jen
kins to me. His faoe was awful pale, and he
appeared as though he was about to faint.
At length he burst out into a wild cry which
terrified every one.
“ Spare my life—spare my life,” he cried, and
1 will tell all—spare mo—l did it—but captain
Moore tempted me. Ho said the man had
money enough to make us both rioh—Oh God
spare my life. ’
The effcot which this had upon the crowded
court was eleotrioal. Every one rose to hia feet,
and it was some momenta before the judge, who
himself rose, could command a hoaring.
He bade the officers place Jenkins and Moore
at the bar and then told Jenkins to tell all he
knew. This unhappy man did. The two vil
lains had resolved to ohargo me with the mur
der, and for this purpose Jenkins had perpetra
ted it, dressed in my cloak, and seeing me come
into tho room, as desoribed by the servant girl,
they had immediately aooused me of tho murder
and thrown open the window wbioh was not more
than fifteen feet from the ground, to load io the
impression that 1 was on tho point of escaping
when arrested.
Thejudge asked Jenkins whero tho portmao,.
teau was, and he replied that it had been hand
ed by Dim to Moore, who had hidden it iu the
stable.
The officers were sent to scaroh the spot indi
cated, and both it and the knife were found.
Tho trunk had not yet been opened and it was
examioed in the presence of the court aud
found to oontain upward of four thousand dol
lars.
Tho prisoners were tried, oonvicted, sentenced
to death and executed, without tho oxprosaion or
one word of sympathy by the crowd who witness
ed tho execution.
I need not say my parents were overwhelmed
with delight, and Mr. Wither’s family who,
aftor all, were good sort of people, were sorry
for what I had unjustly suffered, that they pla
ced me In a situation far above my expectations,
and perhaps this dreadful episode in my life was
the real stepping atone to my prosperity in
business.

Tbeso Tills ucquestlonably possess great tonic properties,
