How ? —These aro questions, Which every body who bestows a thought upon foreign politics con stantly puts to his ,own, mind and to his neighbor's. Lately, alley a lirie(and brilliant Campaign, LombSrdi' changed Misters, and was made overby'Austria to France, by whom it was given to Piedmont. This was a great deal more than Vwron EMMANUEL had a right to look for, considering that, ten years before, the result of the Battle of Novara, which drovoids father frOni the throne into exile, had literally placed Piedmont—at the feet of Austria. . • Moro than Lombardy, however, is to be considered. - Austria was allowed to retain Venetia, in which are continued the misrule and discontent which originally were the Main causes of the recent war. It can scarcely be expected that Venetia will much longer sub mit to this. , • Next, there is dissatisfaction and disaffection in the Papal dominions. The three Duchies, governed by sovereigns of the house of Haps burg-Lorraine, ejected their rulers, and their example has not been lost upon the Romagna, which (tia well as , Tuscany, Modena, and Parma) has actually annexed itself to Pied mont, though VICTOR EIIIIANUEL, as yet, has not accepted this accession of territory. At present it may be said of the Duchies, what Jon KEIIIILE said of EDMUND KEAN'S acting, that they area terribly in earnest. l ! Nothing but the extreinestforce will induce the Duchies to take back their ejected mii-rulers. There is an impression among political peo ple in Paris that NArciLuoar will not sanction any plait for forcing the old, bad rulers upon the Duchies, but that an appeal will be made, in each case, to universal suffrage. That, it cannot be doubted, would be fatal to the hopes of the Grand Dukes., Nor can it be be lieved that the inhabitants of the Duchies will voluntarily abandon their earnest purpose of becoming subjects of the gallant King of Sar dinia.—a purpose which Austria will resist to the uttermost. On the other hand, England has declared, (in Lord JOUN RUSSELL'S accent speech at Aberdeen,) that she will not only be no party to, but will strongly resist, any at tempt to force upon Central Italy obnoxiceis rulers or a form of government of which it disapproves. There has been broached the idea of annex- ing Modena loyarma. But it is scarcely pos sible that NAPOLEON can thus advance the in terests of the Duchess-Regent of Parma, whose private letters, heaping all sorts of personal abuse upon hithself, have lately been pub lished, ' Under any circumstances, it is highly im probable that Prince NAPOLVON will obtain the crown of Central Italy, or of part of it. He has been decidedly successful, in Italy as well as in France, in making himself thorough ly unpopular. MAZZINI, who was one of the Roman Trium virs in 1849, his colleagues being Arinstm and &MI, in which capacity his administration of affairs lasted only three months—Naples and France omPrpowering Rome by force of arms— has addressed a letter to VICTOR EMAIANUEL, in which ho promises him the aid of the ultra Republican party, provided that ho will go on and liberate Italy, suggests the seizure of the whole of Italy ; to convert it into one kingdom from the Alps to the sea, bidding defiance to France, Austria, and as many other European Powers as may oppose such an arrangement. This is a proposition castor to make than bring into action. It shows, however, that the extreme liberal party in Italy, of whom 3Ltzzurt is the recognised head, have groat confidence in the Ring of Sardinia. " - The greatest difficulty of all, in Romagna and in the Duchies, is the want of money. Several attempts have been made to obtain loans, In . the London money market, but with. out succesa. Thts, we apprehend, will be the great evil with which Italy must 6ntend. Question for Administration Organs. Will the Administration organs support Judge DOUGLAS; should he be nominated by the ,Charleston Convention for President in 1860? They are'in the litqt of reminding the Democracy that the organization of the party is the first thing to be considered ;' that a re gular nomination is more binding upon Demo - 4.lna 1.4:44 auo decree of a Convention is to be obeyed, no matter what doctrines it may lay down. It is true, their practices do not square very closely with their professions. They refused to recog nise the Democratic organization of Illinois, although, almost by acclamation, that organi zation made DOUGLAS its candidate for Sena tor; and they openly struck hands, Under the advice of Attorney General BLAOK, with the Republican's, They , rejoiced over the election of General Frousrou 51 Governor of Texas) although he defeated a regular Democratic candidate. And Arr. &moms has issued an edict that no man shall hold office, great OF small, under his Administration, who dares to avow preferences for DOUGLAS. Would it not be well, thee, for the Administration to settle tho question, before the nomination at Charles ton is made, whether they intend to support that nomination 4°134 it fail upon the qeotor from Illinois ? We ask a fair question, and await a frank reply. Breakers e Ahead! The last news from England is that rumors were afloat of difficulties in the British Min istry, growing out of the Chinese affair. The truth of these rumors would not sur prise any person. It is said that Franco, dis covering that it is England which would he served by another Chinese war, is undecided about Joining in it, and it might have been ex pected, from the strange mixture of parties in the Palmerston Ministry, that a difficulty would arise whenever John Bull was made to speak of going to war. Mr. MILNER GIBSON, who obtained the Parliamentary censure of the original China war in 1857, in which be was backed by 'RICHARD COBDEN SINIJOIIN BRIGHT, leaders of the Manchesterreace section ef poli ticians, is now a Cabinet Minister, who cannot consistently remain a member of the Govern ment, Wit. initiate a new war with China, and upon a larger scale than that which Parliament condemned. Neither can Conpcs and Bainier, the two most popular politicians now in Eng land, consent to support the Palmerston Ad ministration, if It plunge the country,sonce more, into the horrors and expense of warfare. These be the "breakers ahead," which threaten the very existence of the Palmerston Ministry, and these we predicted on its forma nob, last summer... If the Ministry should break np, before Parliament meets in Febnt ay, Lord PALMERSTON will scarcely be very .sorry, seeing that ho will thereby be relieved from the necessity of introducing a new and extensive measure of Parliamentary Reform, which, old Tory as be is, ho would fain avoid. 137" The New York Herald and the Public Ledger, of this city, are extremely anxiolla to furnish victims to gratify the strong feeling in the South which has grown out of the Harper's Ferry tragedy. ,The Herald would like to see GSBRIT SMrru and FUEL , DOUGLASS tc hung, htsvn, and quartered," and to this end is en• gaged in the amiable pastime of calling upon Governor MORGAN to surrender these two dis tinguished fanatics to the authorities of Vir ginia. The Ledger, inspired by the same humane sentiment, insists that a well known citizen of Philadelphia—the secretary of the Anti-slavery Association of this State, and, we believe, a member of the society of Friendsshould be punished as an accessory "before the fact," because he published cer tain information after the news of the tragedy was received. Unfortunately for these excel lent journals, however, Governor Wm, of Virginia, does not seem to be very anxious for it the blood of the martyrs;" but, on the con trary; prefers resorting to peaceful and morel remedies. So, we fear that the it labor of love" of the Herald and the Ledger will prove to be vain. Hon. 'Thous H.

The St. Louis Republican of the 21st lust. publishes in full the - inessaionf Jour; Ross, President of the Cherokee Nation, transmitted to "the National Committee and Council, in National Council convened,' of that nation, on the 3d of October.. The Republican states that the message is set up from the MS. of the Chief, written in a clear, round hand, and that his signature is a beautiful piece of chirogra phy. The message is ono of the best-nl•ittr public documents we have over read, and very few of the messages of the white Governors of the Union iqual it in style or in the pro priety and wisdom of its suggestions. Mr. Ross advocates, In forcible and eloquent lan guage, the adoption of measures for the difth sion of education, morality, and temperate and industrious habits among the Cherokees. Ho addresses to his dusky legislators a warn ing which might with much, propriety be ad dressed to many of the white legislators of the country, by telling them that 4 , As indi viduals you can do much, by example and precept, to inculcate harmony, flobriety, purity and patriotism, in your respective neighbor hoods and districts. As legislators you can do more to advance the public good, by rising above personal considerations, enacting judi. cious laws, and providing the necessary means and the proper men to execute them. I speak thus pointedly because I think you will agree with me that the times demand it." Among th 6 most serious evils felt in the Territory, to which he specially directs atten tion, are the disasters caused by the inefficient manner in which the liquor laws aro enforced, and he suggests that greater penalties should be imposed upon solicitors and sheriffs where they fail to enforce them. The Territory appears to be defective in prisons; and until the c( national jail," which is now in contemplation, is constructed, he suggests that criminals should be condemned to hard' labor on some work of public utility. The national debt of the Territory is about one hundred thousand dollars, for which he propo ses to provide either by taxation, or by ceding what is termed the fc neutral land.' to the Go vernment or the United States. Upon this land it appdhrs that some American'titizens have ci squatted," cut down its timber, and re moved its lead and coal deposits, of which Mr. Ross Justly complains. He also complains of the course of the United States marshals in entering the country at pleasure and snaking arrests of Cherokee citizens; and he recom mends the appointment of a delegation to pro. coed to Washington city, there to settle, by negotiation, all questions pending between the Cherokees and the United States Government. Ho refers to the report of tho Superintendent of the Public Schools, from which it appears that a large number of children are in attend ance upon them, and that' they are almost en tirely under the instruction of native teachers. He complains that much of the public land Is monopolized by whites, who claim the rights of Cherokees by virtue of marriage with na lives, and whe are gradually obtaining posses sion of large portions of the Territory with a view to speculation. Ile also complains of the I loss of time and property which results from the adjudication of disputes between Cherokees `and citizens of the United States by United States agents, or judicial tribunals which re side at a great distance, from the places at which difficulties occur. Ile suggests that it the right to levy and collect taxes from tra ders and others, who reside in the country, and to hold them accountable for a violation of our civil rights, is so manifestly just its itself, that I am inclined to believe it would not be denied ,by the Government." The condition of the Cherokee nation is well calculated to elicit the sympathies of tho people of the United States. They have made the only experiment which possesses a remote chance of success, of establishing and neon nuing a civilized republican form of Indian government. No other.numerous body of the original owners of this continent will be at all likely to resist, the destructive influences of white associations upon the 111-fated abort- gincs. If their experiment fails, it will cvi dently be through no want of intellectual en dowments on the part of their chief; and, for the sake of humanity, and the credit of our Government, it is to be hoped that it will per these linfottunate red men, a wise and liberal policy, and spare no pains to render the perpetuation of their race as feasible as possible. The Great Eastern. It appears somewhat doubtful whether the Groat Eastern will leave England during the winter. The London Times threw -donbt Upon the 'probability of a voyage, The latest accounts state that she reached Holyhead, from Portland, on the afternoon of the 10th inst.—malting the voyage in forty eight hours, and the distance 550 miles. This would give less than twelve miles an hour for her average speed, hut a speed of seventeen miles an hour was easily obtained, without any special exertion. There is a difference of opinion as to whether her motion was slight or, heavy and rolling. The vessel steered well, all accounts concur in stating, and, though SO numb iron is used in her construction, which usually interferes with the magnetic influences of the needle, the compaoe§ woro marvel lously exact, At all events, the Groat Eastern cannot leave England, it she does come hither, before the middle of November, at the earliest. She was to remain at Holyhead for ton or twelve days, after which she would proceed to South ampton, which she would reach about the 25th instant, where ber gollers wore to be repaired under the Inspection of an engineer appointed by the Government 'board of Trade. lie will scarcely make her first voyage ifl 010 mid dle of November, and will probably winter at Souiluimpton. A JUST TRIBUTN PROM' 4 NEW TORE PAPER TO VIE ARM-STREET THEATRE.—i r ogjertlay's New York Tribune speaks of the performance of it Dot" at the Arch-street Theatre In the following terms! "The ply which, of all others, has given moot delight to New Yorkers, this season, has ;net with a like enthuslastie reception in Philadelphia, where the admirable company at the Arch-street Theatre do it full justice. In some reapeeta the drama is better noted in that city than it wee in New York, and in some other regards the Nimbi effects are much better, because much more natural. Wo mention the moving scene of the cottage in the se cond act as the moat remarkable instance. In New York, by a curious oversight of Mr. Bonet eau% while the cottage moved to ono side to show the action in the street, the people inside the house remained stationary, so that when the mechanical effect was consummated, the actors who had been in the middle of the room, were left close against the wall, without having moved out of their chairs —the sides of the house having approached them. At the Arch-street Theatre this blander is reme died, and the house and inhabitants move together, as they should. In one or two other respects, toA, the mechanical arrangements have been mush im proved. "As to the acting, while in some regards it is far inferior to that at the Winter Garden, in other things the New York company could have learned mush from the Philadelphians. Dot is admirably played by Mrs. John Drew, whose performance is not marred by the dialect, and the disposition to make out of place low-comedypoints, which die figured certain scenes of MRS Bshertson. But the glory of the piece is the Tilly Illowhgv, which is acted by Mr. J. B. Clarke in a manner so artistic, so excellent, so completely and thoroughly good as to be positively wonderful. Mrs. John Wood was extraordinarily funny, but extravagantly unnatu. ral. A woman fn real life having a constant sup ply of real babies furnished by the surrounding neighborhood, and treating them as did Mrs, Weed her stage-baby, would have made a modem slangh ter of the innocents at the rate of about fifteen nightly, Mr. Clarke is to the fell as funny as Mrs. Wood, but all the while preserves the true subordi nation of the character, giving the other actors an opportunity to properly play their parts, His per formance is so lifelike, so natural. and shows so mush of the true artist, as to deserve a kindly re cognition at the hands of all who glory in the dra matic art. It IS because Dot' has delighted so many thousands of people here, and because we deem that our readers are interested in all per taininglbereto, that we give here a word to the Philadelphia performance."

(Correspondence of The Prem.] IVdsutterrox, October 21, 1852. You will remember I annonnecd, some weeks ago, that the postmaster at Cincinnati, Iron. James J. Baran, would, in all probability, be removed. The statement was denied in certain quarters, but as I rarely speak exoept upon the amplest autho-, rity, I calmly awaited the denouement. Mr. 'Baran has been removed. This ill-advised and extraor dinary sot will male great excitement-1n Ohio. There is but one cause for it. Mr. Baran is the friend of Stephen A. Douglas. Ire was one of the earliest and ,most enthusiastic supporters of Mr. Buohanan's nomination and Administration, and during the sessions of the Convention at Cincinnati I exerted himself, in connection with the Ponnsylva eta delegation, to bring about that desideratum. lie has represented Cincinnati in the Congress of the United States, and has been twice elected may or of that oily. The post office was far below his deserte; and yet, from this comparatively subordi nate position he has been ejected, simply because he has exercised the right of declaring his prefer ence for President. Mr. Faxen is the intimate friend of Mr. Senator Pugh, of Ohio, who will no doubt bring the matter before tho Senate.' Mr, Pugh's connections with the Southern men will enable him filly to vindicate his friend, and to ex pose the Administration. It is a manifestation of the strange hallucination of the President that at the fery time the whole country is dimming the cause which produced the death of poor 13roderiok, and when the proscriptions and calumnies resorted to against that lamented patriot are being revived 'in the minds of all men, another blow should be struck at one of our most distinguished Democrats, and another victim should ho offered up to gratify the malevolence which enema to have become des• perate in hia determination to destroy the Demo cratic party beforo the expiration of his Presiden tial term. Lam told that this act was MN Bre . tha- WM'S own, and it is certain that at twist one mem ber of his Cabinet publicly and Indignantly pro teats against it. The James Buchanan who has beettmOtted private, secretary to the President is the senor the only surviving brother of the President, the Bev. Edward Y. Buchanan, an Episcopal clergyman in your city. He has lately been admitted to the bar, and from all that I hear of him li an excel lent and exemplary young man. The poet of private secretary shas undergone quite a number of changes since the retirement of James Buchanan Henry. It is a highly important position, requiring censiderablo. teat and ability. In this connection I ought not to omit to state, that the Mr. Shannon who acted as pritaste BOOPIAItry before the appointment of the last young Bucha. can was a devoted member of the Amerloan patty, and not long ago en efficient editor of one of their organs. It is not doubted in Washington that Mr. ,Senator Bigler was the engineer of Mr. Shannon's promotion to this confidential connection. Mr. Senator Bigler is a grateful man. It appears that when he was running for Governor the second time in your State, Mr. Shannbn, then an active member of the American party, undertook, for a certain consideration, to turn a good portion of the Ameri can vote of Dauphin county into the Bigler column, and having performed, or attempted to perform, this act, he had a peculiar claim upon Mr. Bigler, who has recognised it in this handsome and public manner. Your Harrisburg readers will understand these remarks. No private secretary, for years past, has been more popular, by the way, than Mr. Sidney Web ster, who acted in that capacity during all the Administration of Oen. Pierce. His gentlemanlike deportment, his courtesy to visitors, especially to Is dies, and his untiring devotion to the interests of the President, made him hundreds of friends, who will always remember him with gratituile. f hope tt ig'sot improper to add that It is stated and be lieved hero, that Mr. Webster wilt alertly lead to the altar the accomplished daughter of one of the most distinguished and wealthy politicians In the " Empire State." Judge Black is a very liberal Cabinet Minister, after all. Although he has not been able to take care of any of his Democratic friends in Somerset and Cambria counties, and in the region around about hie home in Pennsylvania, I understand that, like his affectionate friend, Bigler, be has procured an important appointment for a leading member of the American party, well known in Cambria and Blair conntice, lo your State, under the collector of New York. Tho name of the new protege of the Judge is Mr. Times Ilaynohls, formerly of Elmira, and for some time en active and onergotio opponent of the Demooratio party. This magnanimity on the part of Messrs. Black and Bigler (of course under the sanction of the President) deserves to be recorded in these pages. What effect it rosy produce upon Mr. Bnehanan's Lancaster Mende—particularly those known to be opposed to the doetrines of the American party,• - and with whom, during his late visit to " the only Demo cratic city," ho dined in finch friendly 'communion —remains to be seen. The fondness of the Administration for deserters from tae" Amenutte patty to trot le these days of political Proscription. Judge Terry, of California, who performed the handsome aloe of Administration executioner In a lite memorable event, was sledding member of the Imeiican party In that State before he became a leader In ears. In the apotheosis designed for the illustriourlferry, in honorof.his artistic consummation of the Wishes or trio Administration, let it not lie forgotten that while he struck down a man is halo whple lite had beep one tribute to genuine , DemeeraitOlrhtb, he at the eamo time increased his claims upon the con sideration of our tolerant and pious Mot Magis trate. District Attorney Van D f yke, of your city, left Washington last evening in high spirits. ;He did not stay at the White Rouse, the illustrious eon of my father"—Mr. Robert Tyler—having got into the " spare room" before him. Whether in imi tation of Mr. 4qttA, who slept with the Captain, the Chairman of the State Central Committee shared the same bed with the President, I em not üble to say; bat it is certain that their companionship has been of the moat affectionate character, Mr. Van Dyko has made some headway in his movements against your Collector Baker, and I would not beat all astonished if the latter, In order to avold the fate that has befallen many faithful servants of his Ma jesty, should conclude to imonte the premises on Chestnut street. 4. defensive or explanatory attitude is the worst possible position for a Publio mon of n newspaper. Precisely such au attitude do most of the Itepubli cans occupy to-day In their efforts to explain away Governor Seward's speech on the "Irrepressible conflict" between the two sections„ North and South.

Concert Hall was filled last evening by a fashion able audience, to listen to the first lecture of the winter season under the auspices of the Harrison Literary Institute. The orator of the evening was Joshua R. Giddings, late member of Congress, of Ohio, and the subject, Scenes in his Congres sional Life. Mr. Giddings spoke without any notes, was very rapid in enunciation, and was listened to with the closest attention during the hour and forty minutes spent in its delivery. At precisely eight o'clock Mr. 'Giddings ap peared upon the platform, accompanied by the members of the Harrison, who occupied seats upon the platform. Mr. Alexander 'Ervin, Jr. the pre sident of the Harrison, introduced Mr:Giddings in a brief speech, in which he referred to the ar rangements of the Inatitute for the present lec turing Reason, and stated that already several emi nent gentlemen, among whom were 3flssrs. Wen doll Phillips and Home Greeley, bad been en gaged to lecture at a future period, the former on the evening of the 3d proximo, and the latter, on the 2d of December. Mr. Phillips would repeat his groat lecture on "The Loet Arts," while Mr. Greeley would deliver a lecture written for the Harrison, on California and, the Mormon Country. [Applause. Mr. Giddings, oncoming forward, war received with loud applause, and said that, before corn ! manning his lecture, he would allude to a alight notice which appeared in yesterday morning's Press, and which referred to the unfounded ru mors going the mends of the papers in relation to his connection with the late sad tragedy at Har per's Ferry. That notice, written by - Col. For ney, aired of a Philadelphia public a respectful hearing4or anything he might have to say. Of Col. Forney he could say nothing but words of kindness. He was his political opponent; yet he had always, in their official intercourse, treated him with the most gentlemanly• courtesy; but while he appreolated fully the motives which ac tuated him to the publication of such a matter, he could not but entertain the hope that nothing of this sort was necessary to insure for him a kind hearing before the people of Philadelphia, and the citizens of his own native State of Pennsylvania. [Applause.) In addressing the Harrison Literary Institute, by whose invitation he was then in Philadelphia, ho would refrain from anything of a political or partisan character, and would treat solely of that branch of literature treating of the Congressional scones in our country's history. He would tell them, as far as his recollections would serve him, of many exciting scenes that had occurred during his long period of Congressional eon-lee. . And the Grid scene to which ho would invite the attention of his audience was the celebrated con- test for the right of petition in Congress. In that contest high among them all ,was John Quincy Adams. of Massachusetts. jApplatated Any man who might have been standing in the gallery of the Rouse of Representatives, January 24, 1842, would have been the speetater of a most exciting scene. John White, of Georgia, was inthe chair, and the House was filled with its members. In the aisle an old man might have been seen standing at his desk—a man of me dium size, of a well-built form, and a most dignified beating, slowly taking paper after paper from a large bundle that lny upon his table. He was eurrounded'by the excited and sensitive men of the South ; nob men at Henry A. Wise, Rhett, Holmes, Meriwether, Cooper, and others, were around him, eagerly watching his mevementa. As the old man slowly road the contents of ench Dam, qulok as thought, a motion was made to lay it on the table, and carried. At last he took one from the bundle purporting to come from the 'sili cone of a town in Illaasachusetts, and asking Con gress to legislate for a peaceful dissolution of the Union. Instantly upon its being read en intense sense+ Gen pervaded the hell. Scores of Southern men rose nt once and clamored fiercely for the floor, a clamor which was disregarded by the Speaker,who nrotected the old man xi his right to the floor. Hopkins, of Virginia, asked if it would ..be proper re have the petition burned in presence of the House. Others made propositions of a similar cha racter, all of which were treated with disdain by the Speaker as beneath the dignity of the Reuse. Mr. Adams asked that the petition be referred to a twist committee of nine. with instructions to rc. port adversely to the spirit of the petition. and to set forth reasons why Congress should not favor ,a resolution of such a character. The scene, as the speaker had said, was one be yond the power of language to describe. A reso lution was offered, setting forth that, as Mr. Adams had violated the dignity of the House, ho should bo expelled from the body. Immediately after the resolution wag tottered the House adjourned, amid a moms of intense excitement. The next day Mr. Adams was arraigned before the House, and such scene was presented as had rarely been seen in the Hones. Thegalleries were crammed, the avenues leading to the House were blockaded by spectators, and the foreign delegations were present, interested spectators of the extraordinary spec tacle. On the part of the opponents of Mr. Adams, Hen. Thomas F. Marshall, of Kentucky—a man of unrivalled genius, splendid powers of oratory, and almost brilliant imagination—was chosen to lead the prosecution. This was dean iwo.vent_anY stisparuna one prosecution beingTh work ot tne Democratic party, Mr. Marshall being a Whig as well es .Mr. Adams. Mr. Marshall made the opening speech, in which he arraigned Mr. Adams for high treason ill, the strongest terms. His argument was unrivalled, and was seemingly very conclusive in all its array of convincing logic, and brilliant rhetoric. It could be easily seen that during the delivery of this speech Mr. dame' soul was distracted by a series of most oonfheding emotions. His countenaneo—and It was as honest a countenance as had ever been Inscribed by the bands of the Creator—showed the conflicting passions that racked his soul. Mr. Giddings went on to dettoribe, with a mi nuteness beyonii the limits.ot a hasty newspaper sketch, the continuation of that eventful trial, dwelling particularly on the most exciting inci dents of the scene, and finally its conclusion by a triumph on the part of Mr. Adams He spoke also at some length of a debate that arose between Mr. Adams and Mr. Wise, where the then young and impetuous Virginian was worsted. In alluding to Mr. Wise, Mr. Giddings spoke in very feel ing terms of . him, and of the friendly relations that existed between them There were times when Mr Wise had treated him with severity, and they had always been the most ultra political oppo nents'. But, as ColonelForney in his paper of yes terday hail passed a eulogy on Mr. Wise, he would merely add a confirmation of those words, and say that Mr. Wise, with a courage worthy of the man. had stood by hint in the hour of his need, and had actually defied the rules of the Home. by refusing to vote when that Reuse fought to popish Mr. Old dings by en unconstitutional act. [Applause] Wo will not attempt to follow Mr. Giddings through his long ami interesting lecture, or detail, with any attention to eireumstanee, the many ex citing scenes brought up before the view of his hearers. The peculiar opinions of the speaker on slavery were frequently dwelt on by him, and at times with great earnestness. An allusion to Ken neth Rayner, of North Carolina. in which he said he would reepeot him while memory held its seat in his brain, was loudly applauded. In oonoluding hie leetnre, in doing which he was frequently interrupted by the apdlence with cries of "Go on," Mr. Giddings said that during 'his Congressional career he had at times uttered lan guage which after-reflection made him deeply regret. Ile had said at one time that, when the South was ravaged with the horrors of insurrec tion, he would laugh at their calamity, and mock when their fear cometh ; but he .felt free to say that snob words were not the feelings of his heart. He belied Ms own natpre when ho said anything that might seem to fayor blood or rebellion on the part of any class of mon. [Applause.] After thanking the audience for their kind at tention, and expressing the enni s iction that the time wonid oome when this nation would no longer be a nation of slavery end alaye-holdera, Mr. Giddings concluded amid great applause.

IBS Balinese at the stook hoard waa better to day, with advances of 3 4 - , each in State Fives, City Loans, and Pennsylvania Railroad shares, and of 3: in Harrisburg Railroad and Nforris Canal. Catawissa Railroad first mortgage bonds were better, Bank stocks command high prices in view of the near approach of the Novem ber dividends. The money market is without change from previous quotation'. Laat week the bulk statement showed art increase of loans with a decrease of specie and deposits —a burning of the candle at both ends. This week the loans are reduced, though the specie and deposits show a further decline. The reduction of the loads will be favorably received by the figincial public.. There is too much suspended and renewed pa per afloat to warrant any unusually great extension of bank facilities, at a time when the active business of the city does not require many beak facilities. We had the pleasure of a ride in the first passenger car upon the Chestnut and Walnut-streets _Railroad Company this morning. We invested our six cents in an exohange ticket, good for either the Tenth and k leventh, Fifth and Sixth, Fourth and Eighth. or Second and Third-streets railways, 'and rode dawn Chestnut street and down /Second 'treat ever no far. The first car was well filled, and we have seen them at odd times during the day-always running full. Some of the Walnut-street omnibuses showed an ugly spirit in moving slowly in the direction of the care upon the track, delaying Lath the passengers in the cars and those in the omnibus—a foolish policy, ert ain to recoil upon the omnibus line to its great in jury. The omnibus drivers on Chestnut street behaved With much better taste and manners, and the old tied new institutions rolled along amicably together. We r °heed the sale of some of the stock of this railway in the latter part of the week at twenty ; but we are led to behove that it was not a bona hie transaction. Sales of the stook outside of the board are reported at $27 to $3O per share. OFFICIAL BANK STATEMENT. LOANS. Rings. Oct. 17. 0ct.24. 0ct.17.

He did this in snob a knowing manner that the au dience began to laugh. Corwin noticing it at last, waved the dog beet: with his hand saying, . Come, one at a time, old fellow.' Bull stepped book a few paces and turned his head on ono side with a gels/Joel expression, Ralf inquiring what ho meant. Corwin returned the look as near Bull's as his won derfully expressive countenance could come, and then said confidentially to the crowd, , I do be lieve he thinks of leaving the other dogs and j,rining the Reim:ll)lton party .' This was fol lowed by a roar, in the millet of which Bull cocked up hie tail and deliberately trotted nut of the hall —every part of him saying plainly as a dog could speak, that he 4 wouldn't.stand any more of such d—d nonsense.", Philadelphia .11tarliete.

A committre . of three was appointed to test the merit. of each machine, and for this purpose two stumps. equal in size, were selected for the trial. Mr. W., wishing to exhibit the full p..wer of his machine, made fast his ehair a to a green tree about two feet in diameter, which was standing about three rods from bingo:me. at the same time connecting his rods with the stumps set apart for the experiment. Tne word was given. and in less then seven minutes both tree and stomp were hauled out of the ground, Jo the entire satisfaction of all pre- sent. Attention was then directed to the working of the Knowelton machine. After making several attempts. with the same team that Willis had used to pull his stump, the machine failed. and the effort was abandoued. The same success; attended former male of' the Fame machine. At the request of the committee. Willis then tried his machine on this stamp, and with his small power it was readily turned out in a very few minutes' to the satisfaction of hundreds that witnessed tha won derful exhibition. .Nlr. E.

Tho day after par chseine he pulled twenty-eieht stumpa. full and average size. and turned out three Large rocks, in the short space of two hours, and wee highly pleased, as the machine worked better than he had expected.
