'4rtiste, no lees than authors, are somewhat die-

Many others, but it would seem that the appoint

the 'origin and purpose of the Commission, and
from the portion I have italicised it is reasonable
to suppose that the - President - was guided in his
appointstente by " the united wine of American
artists." I sincerely trust it has been so. All
worshippers.of art must hope that the appoint-
Monts have been made more in accordance with
artist:le interests thanpolitleal influence::
Theartistsfaeleoted, so far as I' know, have the
fraternal confident° of the whole Samily. Henry
Kirke Brown is a well-known soulptor, who has
made an historic name in his art, if being the atm
easeful soulptor of men whose names tit , : nation
will not willingly let die will give him a claim to
that proud title. His statue of DeWitt Clinton
oonneots him with the great State of New York
through one of its most useful historic personages,
while his Washington statue gives him is national
importance in art. Brown le about forty-five
years old, was in early life a farm-boy, made a
first attermpta.tpaintin&about the age of twelve,
and being encouraged, the experlenoe of nature—
as in the ease of Morris Kitsoh the great German
artist, who was in early life a forester—found vont
in art under the friendly patronage of his mother.
At eighteen, Brown went to Boston, with the
Intention of being a portrait painter. He studied
for it, but the chance modelling of a lady's head
(who was the lady Brown) determined his mind
fortunately for sculpture.' Getting possessed with
this idea, and being possessed of nothing else, the
accomplishment of a visit to Italy was a thing not
easily to be made. To raise the funds he bi'mame
an engineer on a railroad in the State of Illinois,
where, however, he gained nothing and lost some
thing—his health. His mangy surmounted dis
ease and all other obstacles, and being aided by
friends—bless all such friends of students !-;.-he
wont to Italy, and remained for several years.
Having got hold of the manner of working them
out, be thought the best place for a man with
ideas was in his own country, so beak he came,
nettled in Brooklyn, and took hie rank. He is the
first sculptor who made a bronze statue in Ameri
ka. Re has o studio in this city now, and is
a gentleman of calm demeanor and exalted ideas,
personal and national.
• John F. Kensett is a landsottpe painter of very
eminent distinction, Ho is remarkable for hie
Ohoice of subjects as well as for his mode of hand
ling them. In mountain scenery, where we find
the crags 'mottled with the dews and sun-love of
centuries, sparsely mantled ' with fibrous vegeta
tion, looming up from brown pools or sheltering
brawny cascades, and before, atop, or about which
the rugged pine, wind-tossed and splintered, like
a faithful sentinel, stands—there we find Kensett
in his glory and almost without a rival. In the
wild Adirondack of New York he is at home. His
coloring, following the impressions received by his
eye, and in thorough accordance with such sub
soots, Is bold and forcible. His pictures are pecu
liarly national, in being unmistakable combina
tions of American mountains, ravines, rooks, trees,
and skies. -

TOI7CUSTONE
A YOUNG MAN SHOT IN THE STREKT.—So
tween 11 and 12 o'clock on last Wednesday night
Mr. William Mahone. •with one or two friends,
was standing at the Telegraph House, Cincinnati,
when a Mr. Adams came In and asked Mahone to
sing. Mr. Mahonededined. Adams told Mahone
he could whip him. Mahone replied that ho
didn't want to have a fuss in the house, when
Adams told him to come outside, and went out the
door flourishing a cane. Mahone followed him,
and some words passed outside the door on the
pavement, when Adams was heard to exclaim,
" It's all right, John, shoot him—kill him !
show you whether I've got friends, or not." At
this juncture Sohn C. Clawson and his brother
Charles came around the corner, when John Claw
son fired a pistol pointed at Mahone, when the
latter fled to a drug store, exclaiming to several
persona who wore present, "Gentlemen, I'm
shot!"
Mahone was concluded to a sofa, with the blood
gushing out of his month. Ose of the persons
present interrogated Mahone as to who shot him,
when he replied, "John Clawson." Mr. Giffin
said, Did John Clawson sheet you? and he re
plied, " Yes, it was John Clawson " These were
about the last words he uttered. In ten minutes
after he entered the• drug-store the breath had
left his body. The parties concerned ran away,
but were arrested. They are all young men under
twenty-eight years of ago.
CONSOIHNOIL—About twelve years since,
Dr. Gregory, then living at Geneva, N. Y., lost a
purse containing $2OO, of which no traoo was ever
found until a few weeks since, when the Recorder
of Geneva advertised the money, stated that the
person who had found it had beoome religions, and
felt that he could no longer keep property which
did not honestly belong to him.
Letter from Pittsburg.
(Correspondence of The Press..l
PITTEIIiIIRO, May 18,1559,
In my last letter to The Press, I made a brief
allusion to the fact that the Post, of this city, had
rend all persons out of the Democratic party whe
sympathised -with the, Btate-Rights Demooraoy,
and but fOr lack of time I would else have given
you a few extracts from recent editorials of that
journal ai a sample of the gross inconsistencies
which the opponents of our Movement invariably
fall into. I trust it will net be too late to attend
to this very agreeable business at this time. , •
In his Issue of May 4th,-.the editor of the Post
gave his leaders -an excellent article, headed
Demooracy gone mad," in which be took eon•
sion to condemn, in nntneasnred torms, the ostra-.
,ciem of Hon. A. Douglas, by the State Central.
Committee of the Administration party in Illinois.
'rho argaidents of the address of that committee
' iwere Ault:tented upon in a very masterly, man
ner, and the position firmly established that no -
MemlniOrthe party was bound by its rules if they
fettered' ither his judgment or hie action. But I
will, give .the editor's own- language : "Thank
God, in this free country no rules of party organi
zation Mtn compel to act against their judg
ment and their cobsoience." , sr , st" "They
entrust the delegated poorer of representing their
opinions to those in ,whom they have confidence;
it they find that 'they have -been misrepresented,
they are compelled by no rule of party organiza
tion to sustain their agents, (or candidates, I pre
sume) in endeivorleg to effect that which they do
not desire to effeeted." * a P ar ty
'disoipline, when it attempts to control the
;tidgtnent stliV of boomer'
;tyrenhibil, and: Welk Silia have 'kaiak' etiontf
and-conscience --enough to• haVe any opinions' of
'their oun,..will never ; surrender them to the en-,
tire arid undisputed management of any delegated
'authority, bo it Convention or Caucus." w *
"The force of.party.diseipline can never compel
intelligent men -to act as they do pot think."
" No arbitrary diota: or those who may be placed
in the position of leaders, ban control , the honest
sentiments or actions pf the mass,",
" And now the minority, by an appeal, to notes
of - organization which are not infallible, even if
made for the general good, and riot for the interests
of a few, who would manage for their own.gain,
"attempt to read 'him (Judge Houglas) out of the
party. There is no poWer in the Hemostatic or- '
gam zation - which amid% this."
The,editor conoluffirthat "we must read each
men
,as Denbo into the party, not out of it."
These extracts do certainly contain remarkable
language, the sentiments of which no one can suc
cessfully controvert. , Behind just snob a position
have we entrenched ourselves. We bold that no'
rola of party organization.oan compel. Ps tAo
port the oandidates of a OonventloneDemoorate
only in name, which, has .entirely, subverted our
mcst sacred principles..
Six days afterwards, when the proceedings of the
State Central Committee were - published, along
with the address authorised by the committee, the
Pass devoted almost an entire column to show that
all he had said on the 4th was merely bosh, and
did not contain a ,word of truth. At least this is
the import of' the last artiole, for he says :- "When
Men, who think alike, and have certain great prin
ciples in common, wish' to carry eat their. princi
ples and their measures by united action, or
ganization and the adoption of some kind of ,
rules of action become - necessary to success.
Those who refuse to not-by these riles:have no
right to claim membership in the, organisation.
They are outsiders:" * * * "All who claim
to be Democrats," to., "must be willing to sub
mit • to the regulations of ,the party on all general
matters and abide by Its nominations regularly
made." - -
Bat it is unnecessary to multiply extracts.
Those I have already given are suffioient to, es
tabliih the puerile inconsistencies of this model
expounder of Demooracy, who one day says that
party rules are not infallible, that no' one is bound
to.submit to them, and that there is no
,power in
the Demooratio organisation which can read such
man as Mr. Douglas out of the party; and yet,
who within aik days, changes his tune, and. says
that the rules of party are not only necessary and
omnipotent; hut that allpinions claiming to be
members of the organisation must slavishly sub-'
mit to them,—and at the same time, with one fall
swoop of his mighty, pen, reads thousands of
honest and fearless men out of the par
ty. In reading, the btate-Rights Democracy
out of the organisation, he assumed a power,
Which six days before he averred did not belong
to tho party. I presume that the editor, whilst
floundering beyond party limits, has been. in
vested with this regal omnipotence, and is himself
determined to lissome the control of the'Demotra
tie organisation, regardless of the memoirs of the
put, and the hopes.of the future.

bonds in controversy were part of those given to

charged the jury that the city had no power to
make the subscription to the Allegheny Valley
Railroad, and that the plaintiffs could not ratio
vet- on the coupons of the 'first issue to the Pitts- -
burg and Steubenville Railroad, bemuse the
bonds in their possession bad not been assigned
to them in the manner provided by law. A non
suit was taken with regard to the Allegheny Val

burg and Steubenville road. Verdict for plain

Mr. Everett at Jamestown.
The Southern Literary Messenger for May con
tains an interesting account of a pilgrimage made
the previous month by sixteen ladies and gentle
men, including the Ron. Edward Everett, to the
ancient site of Jamestown, to plant ivy at the
base of tile ruins of that elderly settlement of this
now great Republic. As the pilgrims were about
to depart, Mr. Everett was addressed by one of
the party in terms of welcome, to which he replied
as follows:
I am extremely indebted to you, sir, and to
our kind friends, on whose behalf you have spoken,
for the obliging manner in which you have been
pleased to allude to my share in this simple act of
commemoration, and for the cordial welcome which
you have given me to this sacred spot. I feel
that any premeditated phrases of aoknowledgmont
would have marred the beautiful simplicity of the
oeoaeion, and I reinice that we are both here with
no other preparation than that of the sympathy
with which we have all united in this tribute of
respect to the noble fathers and mothers of Virgi
nia. It is indeed, sir, a hallowed spot. The vene
rable tower, beneath whose shadow we stand, and
whioh we have sought to adorn with Nature's dra
pery, though not coeval with the first attem. is at
settlement, is nevertheless—for this country—of
great antiquity, and it marks the- spot where the
first germs of this mighty Republic, now almost co
extensive with the continent, were planted in
1607, not as we have planted these roots of ivy—
, vot in the sunshine and the smile of Heaven,
Bat armed in whirlwinds end begirt with foes '
"The next attempts at settlement, I need not
tell you, were those made by the Pilgrim Fathers
at Plymouth, thirteen years, later,
and, in like
manner, amidst hardships never to be adequately
described; and it is indeed with heartfelt satis
faction that I, a dutiful son of New England, have
united with the fair daughter of Brandon; with
you, eons and daughters of Virginia; with our
friends from the Empire State, (Ur. Samuel G.
Ogden and family, of New York,) and the gentle
man from a foreign province, (Mr. Johnston, of
Halifax,) who has kindly joined no oa this occa
sion in paying this bumble tribute of respect to the
pioneers of North American civilization. What
memories come back to the mind-as we stand on
the spot where, two hundred and fifty-two years
ego, those thrilling HMOs of • our early history
began to be acted out; What solemn and tender
images crowd upon us, as the shadowy forms of the
chivalrous Smith; the friendly Powhatan, the gen
tle and compassionate Pocahontas, (whose name,
truly Christian before she was baptized, figures on
the little steamer that has just glanced over these
shining waters,) present themselves to the mind's
eye !
" Happily, sir, the ivy we have planted will long

green plants, in continuous reproduction, are de
manded front those which flourished two centuries
and a half ago; but the substantial brink walls of
the ancient church have ortimbled to the dust
never again to be raised ; the solid monuments in
yonder churchyard, which preserved for awhile
the memory of the good and bravo of other days,
are falling asunder; huge trees have pushed their
gnarled limbs through sepulchral marbles ; their
very fragments are hastening to decay; ettam
pawn! twine. But let us hope that, in genera
tions to come, the ivy which we have this day
committed to the genial earth will spread verdure
and beauty over the wall upon which it climbs;
yen,that in ages still distant, to the end of time,
an when tower and ivy shall alike have perished,
the groat republic, of which it is our privilege to
be the citizens, will stand unshaken upon the
