If the„people of Kansas 'frame a Constitution,

' The Constitution of the United States provides

to entitle a Territory to admission as a State. The
determination of this question is left to the sound
judgment of Congress, in view of all the eireum.
stances ; certainly, at this late day, it is not neces

immediate admission, if a majority of her people
desire it,•would be an not of the highest political
wisdom. If it was right for Congress at the last'

'her Katie shall ask; admission' as a free State. If
she does apply for admission, the cot of Congress,

It is not much more than a month ago since
WO 'offered, alien' Olive Branch' of peace to
parties And to the country, the formal repu
diation Orthe despotic dlicrimination in the
English bill: • - A similar spirit was manifested
in other (Pouters. - But this proposition, like
that for - toleration on the original, or Le-
Compton infamy, was answered by repeated
prosciiptions. The resat has been that every
-does „additional discussion of the English
bill has rendered , it so disgiaititilto the people
that ,none but- the veriest' slaves of
,office and
- the - meatiiteihendicants at the feet of power
are now degradpi enough to approve it. From

To the LeComptonitea, who have thus for-
- malty abandoned their faith to the English
bill, in order to secure their re-election to
Congress, we have some brief words to say.
We applaud your concession to the right. It
is well. You should have all the advantage
of, the act consistent with your motive ip
(nuking it, and your- known relations to the
Federal authorities:- Bad you made it earlier,
it would have been better for your own peace
of mind. You see now that the platform and
olive branch offered by Tna Pans constitute
'the ruling - substantiate of a national party.
,36 'iliaPressed are you of this fact, that you
boldly„ lake: ;smut, against the Adminis
tration In taking ground against the English
'We mean nothing harshly when we say
that your concession is a proofAP..-------
(n -w - acepty that it is

your conialitriOrt, you have transgressed so
grossly that few will believe that it is honest.
If you are, and -should be re-elected to Con
'gross, yon must go there either to betray your,
constituents in the new pledge of hostility to
, the Enfibili bill,'or to find yourselves ostracised
14 an Administration which will never, agree
with you in this position. Such are the re
wards of public men who prefer Expediency
to Justice and to Truth.
For ourselves, we see that the victory is
wholly with us; with True Puss and its com
patriots ;with the prescribed, and hunted, and
excommunicated • devotees of Popular Sove
reignty. For all practical purposes the decree
of the Federal power, the Lecompton organi
zatiOn ; of a packed majority in Congress and
an arrogant minority in Kansas ; of office-
hunting sycophants and office-holding despots
—this decree has been' reversed—strlck.en
from the rolls—blackened with ahame:—and
remembered only as an Etample to, be shun
ned. Hereafter no anch crime as Leconipton
Will be attempted—no such insult as'the Eng
lish bill will be dreamed of. The people of
the Territories are supreme in all their local
affairs; and the people of the States will see
that they are not again deprived of a right so
dearly bought and so heroically defended.
Bat the Administration will not say yes to
this I Nor will the extreme South say ITO to
it. Though the one asserts that the English
bill is 'a Finality, and the other' demands that
the pound of flesh shall be forthcoming, the
Finality of the Administration is a• different
thing from that we have contended for. The
Administration Finality will keep Kansas cent;
ours will admit her. The ono will extend the
contest into 1860; ottrs will close it "(if all
parties aro agreed) in six months. Choose
between the two, intelligent reader, and
answer at the pcills.
Mr. DE SAIITT, in reply to the requisition
from Mr. CIItiIiFIELP and other Directors of
thti Atlantic Telegraph Company, reports that
on last Thursday he commenced receiving
a current [of electricity] from Valentia, and
was in hopes that he should be at work again
soon after. He informed Mr. Monter, the land
line operator at St. Johns, of this, whichled to
the too sanguine report that the fu'l connexion
was restored., The current then failed. On
Saturday they were not working at Trinity
Bay, but occasionally receiving, from Palen
tia, some weak reT/ersals of current, which,
when received, are unintelligible.
If the lino were entirely broken, as has been
feared, riot the alighteat current could be re
ceived. Therefore, there is still reason to
hope that the present hitch is only temporary.
Mr. DeSanty did not send any report yes
terday, but promises a daily report of future
proceedings.

ward, except the First. The Democratic majority
for mayor last May wall 827. In the fall of 1836
the Democratic majority was 1,313.
The present regularly nominated Democratic
`oandidate is James Donnelly, of tho Seventeenth
*ard, but many of the Democratic citizens of that

incompetent to represent them, are determined to
support 0. Potts, running as an independent De

two candidates can only be estimated by those
who have a' personal acquaintance With them.
The People's candidate, by rkgular nomination, is
Simon Grate; of the Twelotieth ward. The
titraight;out American candidate is R. P. Garri
son, of the same ward. The placards ;issued for
this candidate call him the Independent People's
candidate. Thus there are font tickets' in the

PICTOSIAL NEweraPnns.—From Callender
Company, news-venders, Third and Walnut streets,
we have received the latest numbers of the Illus
trated London News and the Illustrated NM.
ef tA4 WOO,
Mr. De Sauty , s Report.
Public Enteitaluments.
The utter impossibility of heing in two places at
one time,: " like a bird,", as Sir Boyle Roche put it,
'prevented our witnesSing the performance of " The
Inoonstant,".at the Walnut-street Theatre, on Sa
turday evening. Dy sleme Very absurd misman
agement, it was *seated after that most lugu
brious tragedy, "'Jane Shore," a drama which,
we had hoped, was _placed on the shelf, side by
aide with " George Barnwell." Not even the ad
mirable oast, which inoluded Mrs. Bowers, Mre.
-.Conway, Mr. Conway, Mr. McDonough, and Mr.,
Beach, could tempt us to tit through these five note
`of meld-dramatio herror and affliction. "The
Inconstant" is auffielOntly attractive to be a
leading. feature, as it will be at the Arch-street
Theatre this evenings
At the Walnut the oast was very good—stronger
InL the female parts than the male. Thus, we
should-suppose that Mrs. Bowers' Bizarre would
be rattler better than Mrs. John Drew's, and that
Miss Riehings, as Oric!,na, would' excel pretty
MO. Gladetane in the genie part. On the other
hand, Mr. Perry, as Young Mirabel, is not to be
named on the same day with Mr. Wheatley. -
Surely, Mr. Conway or Mr. Beach' should have
been oast for such a part?.Mr. Gilbert would be
preferable to Mr. Thayer, as Old Ilifirabel, because
he could throw more force into that rather demon
strative character.
A new flve•aot play, " Cagot, or Heart for
Heart," will 100 produced at Walnut-street Thea
tre this evening. Mrs. Bowers, and Mr. and
Mrs ' Conway, have the leading parte. This
drama has been a considerable time in prepara
tion, is well cast, very full of interest, awakened
from the first and skilfully maintained and
heightened all through,,and we expect to be gra.
titled by witnessing its representation in a supe
rior - style of art.
On Saturday evening we saw the last perform
ance of t , The Wizard of the Wave," in which Mr.
Dolman's defeet of voiothat frequent interject,
log of falsetto tones—marred the abet of his
eapital acting, as Captain Faulkner and the
Pirate„ This gentleman's acting is always judi
cious, and sometimes even excellent, but his vari
abloom of voice rains many of his best•caloulated
- effects. Mr. new°ll, as a rough-and-ready sailor,
exhibited much ability. There is Scarcely any
young man on the stage whose improvement has
been so marked and so steady. Mr. McCullough's
attempt in the part of the Governor might do for
a small theatre out in the far West, but its exag
geration of action and of tone was entirely unsuit
ed to Aroh-street Theatre.
This paregraphAbont the Wizard," however,
is mere epleodal, tnr we really went to see the fine
comedy of "The Country Girl," one of thnplays
which, like the " Clandestine Marriage" and the
"School for Scandal," never can grow old with
years. The part of Peggy, which was the chef
d'ouvre of the femme Atm Jordan, wee very wel
played by Mu. John Drew. The greater part of
the notion it between Peggy and Moody, and
Mr. John Gifbert performed the latter part very
well. Bat be does not quite look the diameter.
The text of the play puts him at under the ago of
fifty, but he looked ten years older. The letter.
'writing scene was capital, indeed, bringing both
performers into good situations, but Peggy's af
fectedeimpliefty, on the detcetion of the second
letter, which she adroitly affiliates upon Alithea
drew down the house. The part has severe
rather deeidel), prpesions, and Mrs. Drew gave
each of them full re a rm tuimh to the amusement
of a largo audience. The remaining ports were
welt filled by bliss -Taylor, Miss Ifinlook, ;XIV. pie
well, Mr. Dolman, and gr. Wright. Qf course,
this play will- be repeated. , This evoning "The
Inconstant " will be produced, followed by "Pan•
Pry," with Mr. Clarke as the hero.

prosy speeches, the burden of which was the tariff
and Know Nothingism, without a solitary allusion
to any other issue which enters into the contest.
At the conolueion of Mr. Banks's address, Owen
Jones took the stand, and consumed some fifteen
minutes' time in the recital of a now speech,
whioh he had. bgt imperfectly committed to me
mory. ' The burden of his new song was the
"Scotch Pipe contract," into which ho lac ached
with a decidedly bold flourish. At its commence
ment he laid by his aide a profusion of documents,
which he announced were forever to put the quietus
upon the eharge which had so often been preferred
against him, of complicity in the infamous award
which was made to foreign contractors at - the ex
pense of our own indusolal interests. These docu
ments, however, he did not read, and no allusion
was made to them, save the flourish with which
they were announced. Daring his recitation upon
this subject, there were persona to the crowd cruel
enough to interrupt him with interrogatories,
which seriously embarrassed him, and considerably
marred the beauty of the oratorical performances.
The tern', which formed the prominent theme of
his previous efforts, was source adverted to ; while
net even abare allusion was made to the subject of
Kansas, or an explanation volunteered of his own
betrayal of the people's trust in aiding the con
summation of the infamous Leoompton fraud.
We do not know, personally, the gentlemen who
aotod as oificere of the meeting, but we were as
sured that the president of the evening would not
vote for Owen Jones, and that the sooretary, Mr.
Morgan, resides in Chester county, and avows
openly hie determination to vote for John Riok

THE I ELLOW FEVER AT NEW ORLEANS.—
The yellow fever still continues to rage in New
Orleans, with but little decrease in the mortuary
returns. Still, however, there is a decrease, not
very marked it is true, but enough to show that
the disease has at last attained its maximum, and
sufficiently encouraging in view of the fast that
this is the first decrease since the beginning of this
fearful epidemic. The daily mortality of the
week before last was as follows :

'undertaking which the United States are
commercially deeply concerned, and I alio&ld' not
be astonished if the Administration were togive it

of the city of New York, mostly idea who have
largely • been engaged in the steamship business;
actuated by the spirit of the age now apparent in
every quarter of the world, which seeks the short
est, most expeditious, and oheapest routes of com
munication between distant sections of the globe,'
have clubbed their means for the accomplishment
of this grand design.
Tho Isthmus of Holstein is the narrow treat of
land separating the North Sea from the Baltic,
between the 'month of the Elbe on the ono, and
the Bay of Riot on the other, pursuing the route
of the river Rbyn. The distance between these
points is only fifty miles, and the distance by this
route from the United States to St. Petersburg is
about one thousand milesiess than by the present
dangerous track of vessels, by the coast of Jutland,
Skagerage, Cattogat, the Sound, and the islands
of Denmark. The - rcate passes through a level
country, free from rook and hard pan,
and a con
siderable portion of 'the'oanal could be formed by
.deepening the Channel of the •Rhyn. Few looks
would be required.. Labor, too, it must be borne
in mind, is mush cheaper there than in the United
States.
It is proposed to make the canal 130 feet wide at
the top water-mark, 110 feet at the bottom, and
twenty feet deep. The estimated mutts 80,000,000.
Russia, Danmark, Sweden, Norway, and Han
over will be benefited by the oonstruotion of the
proposed canal, but neither of them to a greater
degree than will the United States., -provided wo
seise in time the advantages it will place within
our reach. •
Let us look for a moment at the trade of R111331S
and of the Baltic. Russia, with T 0,000,000 of souls,
Is rapidly increasing in civilization, manufactures,
and in imports and exports. Her custom duties
are low. The imports and exports of St. Petersburg
alone, in 1852, were:

The imports and experts of Hamburg, in 1855,
were 2,802,117 tone of merchandise. The value of
the exports and imports of Russia, in 1852, was
5185,102,420, of whioh 880,000,000 belonged to
the Baltio ports. In 1 . 802 it was only ;3 493,045,
exhibiting. by a comparison of the two periods,
the rapid increase of her commerce.
These statements show the greatness of the Rus
sian and Baltic trade, and furnish data upon
which to estimate the value and importance of the
proposed ship canal. Let theories' be constructed
by American enterprise, and Amerloans retain
the control of it, in conjunction with Russia, Den
mark, #o ; let a direct channel be opened to the
ports of the Dalt%q, avoiding the heserdous and
tedious voyage throng Dattept and the Sound,

DEAR PRESS : I suppose that y ou have heard
of the nomination of C. L. Pershing, Esq., as a
matter of course, for Congress, in this district, and
aro probably anxious to know the feelings of the
Democracy hero on the subject. Be it known,
then, especially to oltipen Bigler, that the anti-
Lecompton Democracy of the district are not
" weak in the knees," although the nomination
of Pershing is Claimed as an Administration
triumph! ECM siffnum! In the .pwr county
Convention Ilse contest was between yanks and
Crawford, both anti-Lecompton, while a large ma
jority of the Democracy of Huntingdon are known
to be anti-Administration. We should, therefore,
have gone into the Congressional. Conference
with six members, but by coma strange mis
take (not worth explaining ,harp) ono of the
conferees from Huntingdon was . Administra,
Lion. Judge Himmel, of Somerset, a brother
in-law of Judge Blank, was the ultra Ad•
ministration candidate. Ito carried the conferees
of his own county, by /too of a majority, whilst
in the Cambria•eouuty Convention thoro was
a strong anti-Lecompton feeling manifested by
nearly one-half of the delegates. Does this look
very much like a decided Administration fooling
in the Eighteenth district? The nomination of
Pershing was the result of a compromise, and, in
case of his election, let not the Administration
expect too much from him, lest it be wofully
appointed!

In the way of Improvements we have not mush

milling apparatus is quite a novelty to its way,
from the perfect manner in which it does its work.
It has proved a great ouriosity to country
people, not only for this, but because
it occupies but a small corner in his large
building. It is Clark's patent, manufactured
at 235 Pemberton court, Philadelphia, and I am
told by Mr. Bingham that, by the aid of a six•horeo
power engine, he turns out two barrels of flour per
hour. The price, too, he tolls me, is only a few
hundred dollars. Why, we have la this county, at
Allegheny Furnace, a mill which cost $45,000,
which has very little more capacity. I should
like to own about six of these Clark mills on the

ARTIFICIAL OIGARB.—The steadily advancing
price of tobacco has been met and measurably
counteracted, by the production of artificial
cigars, which answer all the purposes of the genu

most positive evidence, supported by'the oath of

The New York Herald, of yesterday, which

"Other despatches to private parties in this city
corroborate the above. The description given
makes it almost certain that the burning vessel
was either the Austria or the Alps, while the state•
mont as to the figuro-head would seem to show
that the former Is the ill•fatod steamer—that of
the Alps being merely a scroll head, while the
Austria's was an Austrian eagle. The Austria is
known to have left liamburg on the let and South
ampton on the 4th instant for New York We be.
lieve she has it red bottom, though her engines did
not work through her decks.
" morels one probability in favor of the safety
of the crew and passengers, which is a strong
one The burning steamer bad no person on
board when seen by two vessels, and as she was
on the track of numerous lines running between
this and Europe, the reasonable supposition is that
they were ail taken off by some eastern-bound
steamship. Tho brig seen by the Arabian four
miles distant from the burning vessel may have
the passengers, or many of them, on board. It is
to bo hoped that a few days will solve all these
painful doubts."

been relieved through it. agency. The original plan of
the Hospital embraces a wide range of usefulonos, and ,
if fully carried out will be 'the means of doing a 'mit
amount of good to the sick and suffering. The number
of outdoor or dispensary patients, which have been the
chief objeote of attention duringibe last year. may be
increased to an indefinite extent. Prom the peculiarities
of the district these patients will enter largely auto,
the labors of the Hospital. An extensive manufacturing
district will always supply great numbers of accidents,
local diseases, and other affections. which will not pre
vont the patlen's" from walking to the Hospital. The
surgical wards will nemmarily be well filled as soon ai
?smile and wards are supplied ; while the obstetrical de
partment, as past experience proves, will be one of
great interest. The want.of apoonupedations for this
class of cues was long agO felt by the benevolent Doc
tor Preston, whose charitable intentions in bequeath
ing a large legacy for the establishment of a lying-in
hospital in this distriet have not yet been fulfilled.

Return of Warren Itoso Company, No
33, from Philadelphia.
A large number of engine, hose, and other corn
perdu of the fire department turned out last night
to receive Warren Hose Company, No. 83, on their
return from Philadelphia, whore they have been
on a visit since Wednesday last. On their arrival
in the oily of Brotherly Love they bourne the
guests of hose company 29 (the Warren), and the
whole Philadelphia fire department turned out on
the occasion to welcome them. Nothing, it ap
pears, could exceed the hospitality with which
they
. were entertained; their brother' Stamen of
oar sister city seemed to vie, with each other in
their attentions, and the returned visitors will
long bold their warm-hearted and cordial friend
ehip in vivid remembranoe. When leaving Phila
delphia they were escorted to the railroad station
by a large force of the fire department of that city,
and were accompanied by three of the members of
the Hope Hose Company, who, we understand, are
to be their guests daring their stay in New York.
As it was understood lithe Impeded company
would arrive in the half-past nine o'clock train
from Philadelphia, the various companies which
intended to join in the procession assembled at or
In the vicinity or the Jersey City ferry, where the
line was to be formed. A committee of three from
traokson gogine Company No. 24 crossed the ferry,
and on the arrival of the returned firemen escort
ed them to this side of the river, where they were
received by a large delegation, consisting of one
from pooh of the companies present. At half past
nine the train arrived, pundtual to the hour, and
with it the expected company, who were received
by the committee in due form, and who accompa
nied them across the ferry. Qn reaobing New York
they were greeted with a oordial welcome by their
fellow firemen. The streets were Illuminated with
a perfect shower of rockets and other fireworks,
while the torches, which now flamed along the
rapidly-farming line, brought out in bold relief
the picturesque uniform of the men. There were
twenty-six companies and thirteen bands, and the
whole number of members in the procession could
not have been lesi than fifteen hundred. A large
mass of people assembled at the foot of Courtiandt
street, and In fact all along the route of the pro
cession, and greeted them with the most enthnsi•
Otte cheering as they passed. The• men them
selves ehewed their appreciation of this manifesta
tion of popular feeling by cheering in return ; and
they must have been pretty well tired before they
reached their destination.—New Tor* netald of
