■ “ Alas for Mr. Olivor Cotter’s powers of compre

don’t, he oan't be riominated, and tho mam ‘argument
against his pnmination is that ho canlt hc elected; if
nominated. If jionins, an independent candidato.aml
Seward runs, am nominated at Charleston, I can
beat them both. Or. if squatter soveroifnw is a plank
of the platform at Charleston, and Douglas is nomi
nated, (ho South will run an independent candidate' on
protection principles, and run tue election into tho
louse. Y r hofo, then, would'Mr. Douglas be? The

A letter from St. Petersburg, dated July 15,
coming from a good source, says;
“ There are many versions in circulation touch
ing tho mission of Count Paul Sehouveloff to tho
Pronoh hoadquartors in Italy. Tho onp* most nc
orodtted is that'this jioreonago was - ordered by tho
Emperor Alexander-to toll tho Emporor of tho
French that Prussia and England, being alarmed
at his great successes, bad oorao toan agreement to
check their continuance; and,that, in tho anticipa

w6rc fully disclosed, 1 It would show,that it was the'
independence of character displayed by Mr. Hpory,
in refereuoo to this and other matters, that prompt
ed him to abandon tho post of privato secretary
of the President, and commence tlie practice of his
profession in New York. It is notorious that tho
tyronny and hauteur of Mr. Buchanan to members
of his household, and certain members of his Cabi

has a right to insult and dograde honorable men in
tho presonco of other?, and that tho insulted citizens,
must submit xn silence, ovGn whon misrepresenta

Mr. Wood, you vyill recollect, paid a visit to Itichr

an elaborate oration upon 41oxandcr Hamilton;
was tho guest of Gov. Wise, and has, from that
day to tho present, been regarded as his loading

in Congress together. It must ho peculiarly mor

.whilo, on tho other hanjj, it iseosy to imagine the

of Virginia in having his private opinions exposed

4 “It ia tho opinion of .experienced fisliormon that
■ this is the fish which bus given rise to the belief in
a sou-sorpent. - Wbqu it is running at iu-ordinary
.speed in soarch of prey it moves along just under

rises up in a serios of oorrngatidns for about ouo

iuto tho ordinary spreading wuke produced by a
body moving through tha water. This nppeaiancp
