Hon. Henry D. Di
This distinguished gentleman, whose death
,we briefly announced on Monday morning,
occupied a very high social position in our
city, and was at one period prominently Wen:
tilled with political events of the most import
ant character. Mr. Gams was a native of
Philadelphia, born in the year 1801. His an
'castors removed to Pennsylvania at about the
. .
-time of the establishment of the colony by
l'irrusam PENN, settling first, on the banks
of the Brandywine, near the boundary of
Fennsyli , ania and Delaware. His grand-
Philadelphia in the year
1740, and was' an iniiiiinte friend of Dr.
htsmtzt. Hie• father, Mr. JosutiA Gam,
was for a, considerable . period an eminent
merchant of this city; but sometime before
the elcise of his life, removed to the State of
Delaware. Hon. Thrum . D. G/LPIN received
the rudiments of his education at a Philadel-
vhla grammar school, and at the age of fifteen
entered the University of Pennsylvania, at
which institution he graduated with the high
est collegiate honors "in 1819. He then com
menced the study of the' law in,the office of
Eon. Josses R. lanntsott, and was admitted
to the Philadelphia bar in 1822. By his dili
gence as a student, and talents as a lawyer, ho
gradually increased his standing at the bar un
til the year 1880, When his successful manage
ment of a case arising out of a difficulty-between
two Portuguese ministers, accredited by I,tvo
different claimants to sovereign power—,
. which involved' many important international
questions, and which, alter being tried in the
Circuit Court of Philadelphia, was carried up
to the Supreme Court of the United States—
established his legal reputation upon a firm
basis and secured for him the warm friendship
and high regard of the President of the United
States at that time, General JACILSnN. In
the following. year, 1881, Mr. DALLAS, )1110
thou held the office of District Attorney
of the United States at Philadelphia, was
Chosen United States Senator, and Mr.
Grum' was immediately appointed to suc
ceed him as District Attorney. This of
lice he hold for snore than five years,
discharging its duties with great ability. Du
ring this period be also acted to another impor
tant capacity, as he was appointed by General
JACKSON in 1833 ono of the Government di
rectors of the Bank of the United States. This
position was a particularly trying and onerous
one. The current of public Sentiment in Phi
' ladelphia at that period was strongly * in favor
of the bank, and in opposition to the policy
General Jemmy had adopted.' Yet Mr.
GILPIN,. acting under a high sense of duty,
and prompted by a warm attachment to the
brave old hero of the 1 1ermitage; and to the
policy of the Democratic party of that era,
continued, with untiring vigilance and unbend
ing perseverance to antagonise the controll
ing spirits of the bank, and to assist General
JACKSON in his efforts to suppress it.
During the whole of General' Jamcsox's
Administration Mr. Grtrix was one of its
most uncompromising supporters in this lo
cality, and by his frequentzontributions to the
Democratic press of that day, and by the aid
of his vigorous pen in the preparation of nume
rous addre . sses to the Democracy of the State,
he did much to create the strong current of
popular feeling which sustained General
Lumen In his trying contests. On;tho expi
ration of the first term for which Mr. GILPIN
had acted as a Government director of the
Bank of the-United Statei, in 1884, General
Jacirsoar nominated him for a second term,
but this nomination was rejected In the Senate
,by aMajority-of four votes. Jaonsox +tent to
the -Senate a _renomination, which was also,
Of toiiree, rejected,
" ln the autumn of the same year, as an ad
ditional mark of his regard, General JACKSON
appointed Mr. Gum Governor of the Terri
tory of Michigan; a post which had become
vacant by the death of General Grottos B.
PORTER, and this nomination was also rejected
by the Senate, simply on account of the strong
partisan feelings engendered by Mr. Grxrues
rigid course on the bank question, and without
any pretence of unfitness; or of Tersonal ob
"jaCtions of any kind whatever, by a majority
of one vote. The injustice of this rejection,
and 'the vindictive spirit of persecution it
,evinced, were bitterly denounced by the De
- niecratiepress of Pennsylvania at the time, and
itt the following session of the same Senate,
that body, acting under a higher sense of duty,
made the amende honorable by a unanimous
confirmation of the reappointment of Mr. Gm-
;YU to the District Attorneyahlp of Philadel
phia.
•=l, Di the month of May, of 1837, shortly after
- the elevation of Mr. VAN BUaEN to the Prost=
Anti* chair, he tendered to Mr., GILPIN the
office of Soliciter of the Treasury, which that
gentleman accepted and at once removed to
Washington. Several important questions
arose daring his continuance In this office,
which he discussed with masterly ability, and
which were finally milled in accordance with
his ;suggestions.
In 1840, a vacancy was created in the
office of 7Attorney General of the United
states by the resignation of FELIX Gauanv,
of Tennessee, who had been elected a•United
States Senator from that State, and Mr. GIL
/DI was appointed to this position by Presi
dent Van BUREN. Ile thus attained; when
leis than forty years of age, ono of the most
honorable and important offices in the Govern
ment. During his term as Attorney General,
a large number of important cases (Unleaded
his attention, but he was equal to every
emergency, and greatly increased his pro
fessional repffiation by the ability thus
dliplayed. Mr. GILPIN was a devoted
Mend -of Mr. VAN BURN, and since the
oulmination of the political fortunes of that
statesman, which occurred after his defeat, in
1840, never occupied a very prominent po
litical-position, but he assiduously devoted
himself to literature, and to the diffusion of an
elegant hospitality. When quite a young man
he completed the biography of the signers of
the '.Declaration of Independence. Ho was
aim a prominent contributor to the simerican
gees-forty Review, the publication of which
was, enced in Philadelphia in 1829; and
; o Democratic Review, and was the author
of Mani piddle addresses and miscellaneous li
terary productions. He also prepared the
s!Madlson Papers,", 'which were' published
tinder the auspices of Congress, and performed
this duty with such fidelity that Mr. BANCROFT
WATIRiT applauded his labors.
Mr. GILPIN' also acted, during useful life,
u President of the Pennsylvania Academy
of Fine Arts, as Vice President of the His-
Urinal Society, and as Director of Girard
*b College. He was ono of the most polished
gentlemen we have .Dyer known, and to an
InteUeot of a very high order united a
kind heart and an amiable disposition, which
endeared him to all who had the good fortune
to be ranked among his friends. By his death
':llliladelphia lost one of her most estimable
:=:,*id talented citizens.

Charles Heldsieek.
This gentleman, the well-known manufac
turer of the favorite wine which bears his
name, is now in Philadelphia, en route to
Washington, the political metropolis of the
country. Ho is one of the very few French
men who is a sportsman in our or even in the
English sense of the term, and after visiting
the Southern States, intends to go West,
with his guns and dogs, and have some shoot
ing and hunting there. He is an active and
intelligent gentleman, aged about 36, and the
only person named 11E11191E0K who is at all
concerned in wine-making. His grand-uncle
founded the firm, which was continued by his
father and uncle, and now consists of himself
alone. His visit is one of business as well
of pleasure. He desires to see our country,
and also to visit Cuba, and is desirous of
checking, if possible, the home-manufacture
and sale of fictitious Champagne, which so
largely prevails here. Henceforth - his brand
will simply bear his own name—Citauus
HEIDSIECK. All this, however, ho will commu
nicate, no doubt, through the advertising
columns of the leading journals.
From his pen we have, on our fourth page,
a curious Oticle on the statistics of Cham
pagne, which will be read with interest. He
states some facts worthy of notice. First,
though the consumption of Champagne in the
United States is estimated at 1,000,000 bas
kets per annum, the quantity actually made in
France, in a comparatively email district, Is
not more than 800,000 baskets. One million
baskets aro annually sold in the United States,
while, at the Custom House of New York,
where more than two-thirds of the whole
importation is passed, only 176,028 baskets
were cleared in 1859. The actual supply of
the genuine wine, by all the Champagne
makers in France, is 800,000 baskets a year,
,of which Russia takes 100,000 ; Great Britain
and her dependencies, 165,000; America,
• 220,000; France, 162,000; and Germany
140,000 baskets every year. Thus, only one
fifth of the wino sold in America as Chem,
pagne was made in France
Fear out of every five bottles drank hero have
been made here. Most of the popularly
called Champagne, is a mixture, made from
Jersey cider, or other liquors more hurtful,
put into, a required degree of eEforvesence.
We recollect a trial, at the Court of General
Sessions, New York, in October, 1854, where-
by the whole machinery of fraud was exposed.
A wino dealer in Wall-street was convicted
of selling a basket of Champagne of a partic
ular brand, the bottle-labels of which were
forged, cc contrary to the statute." Evidence
was given before Recorder Tattoo, who triod
the case, how the modern miracle of changing
cider Into Champagne was perforated. It
was shown how a fabricator of labels had litho
graphic stones to make imitations, and how he
stamped the corks—how the wine-makers buy
up empty Champagne bottlesfrom the hotels,
put their own stuff into them, and sell them
again to hotel-keepers and others, In this
case, the convicted wine-merchant was very
properly sent to prison, where, though lie
offered to pay a large sum by way of fine,
if the ignominy of confinement were spared
him, ho had to servo out the whole of his
time. A much snore appropriate and severe
punishment than a few weeks' Imprison.
ment would have been for the fraudulent
wine-maker of French Champagne out of
Jersey cider to have been compelled to
drink a basket of his own compound, in the
course of a week. That world have been a
severe punishment—perhaps a fatal one. It
would have extended the Eastern custom of
suiting the penalty to the crime—just as, in
Constantinople, when a baker is detected in
using light weights - hsie_put into his own oven
with the next batch, and, whiii — ftiesloavrs ere
drawn—a baked baker is drawn out also.
WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE
Letter from " Occasional.',
(Correspondence of The Press.]
WesninaTos, Jan. 81, 1810
As I stopped into the reoui of Hon. J. C. Mo-
Kibbin, of California, last evening, he handed rue
ho Stockton (California) Democrat of the 25th of
December, from which I first road, and then ex
am:tad, the following paragraph :
" Occasional,' the Washington correspondent of
Forney's Press. has booome suite an imtitution of the
country. His letters are not only polished productions,
but they are as vigorous as they ate well wraken. 00-
0118101111' is evidently thoroughly versed in the secrete
of the White House, 'swell acquainted with the history
and characteristics of the public men who surround Mr.
Buchanan, and is not inexPert in giving to the public
the red-tape mysteries of the Government departmental
'ricers. Besides this,' Occasional' is as great an an
noyance to the President and his Cabinet as was Junius
ro the King and Ministry of England. In short, the
nerrerpondent of The Press is as useful to the nation Ile
he is an eye sore to public plunderers. Whether For
ney himself In the author of the corresroadence, or
whether some shrewd Federal office• holder. does not
matter; home truths are told, and we must be satisfied
with the knowledge of the fact." •
Let me say another word for myself. How could
I be Forney, when I appear in The Press, no
matter whether he is here or elsewhere, whether
he le In Washington, Philadelphia, or New
y York?
"I am myself alone." It is true I am In some
sense a polypus, for I have many doubles, and
more than one representative. I gather facts ice
historian gathers foots, touching them only when I
find them of the true ring, stamped with the trim
vignette, and unclipped and unsweated by others.
Cam not, however, incapable of a little justifiable
deception. The other day, for instance, as I was
dining with Mr. Secretary he said to one,
Pray tell me who is -Occasional ? ' Ho seems
to know most of our aeerets, and ho tolls them in
such a dashing way, and so good-naturedly withal,
that I should like to know him." My an
swer was, "He is a man about my she and
age, but I am sworn not to tell." I kept
a steady eye upon him, and saw, to my relief, that
he was satisfied. The other evening at Brown's I
met Cot. —, of Kentucky, who said, " I have at
last found out Occasional,' and ho exhibited a
mad inscribed with a highly respectable name,
claiming to bo myself: I told him that ho had
made a discovery, and passed on in a "laughing
meditation fancy free." Riding from Mount Ver
non on Saturday, after the bewildering seeps of
Friday, I heard a Southerner dilating upon poll
ties in general, and correspondents in Partiaular.
Be paid a just and high compliment to "No
body," of the New York Times, who is indeed
a prince of a fellow, and I am (though be don't
know it) a first-class friend of his. Ile liked "In
dependent," of the North American, and said
that while he was somewhat acrid and angular, he
was mostly accurate and plucky. He loved old
"Lou," of the Sun, and spell 9 rapturously of kin
rose-covered cottage outside of the city; and ho
went off into ecstasies about John Forsyth'e (tor
respondents from New York and Washington In the
Mobile negsater. " But," said my friend from the
hot aide of Mason and Dixon, " the moot mysterious
of all is ' Occasional,' of Forney's Press. Ho Is
a sort of Asmodeus—an ever-present perennial pest
—a mosquito never caught—a mask never uncover
ed—a brigand, sir, a brigand, who gives &graceful
stab at Old Buok, and loaves nothing behind him
but hie blow, and his infernal anonymous title." I
almost blushed black, but as I concurred In the
compliment and tho censure, I got back to my gar
ret with a whole akin and unbroken bones.
The President Is becoming unusually communi
cative. Me never had much of a constipation en
to words. lie is now sure that the Union Is to bo
dissolved. He said before Judge Black and my
self on Monday, Gm 234 of January, that he never
had had any fears of dissolution( tilt now. Oh,
ancient Buck, how could you say It! To ray
knowledge, you have predicted death to the Union
ever since you entered public life. Ido not say,
Is come have intimated, that a very old bachelor is
like a very old maid, and that Cho ono in breeches
to little better, or more useful to posterity, than
the other in pet—in hoops. I leave such civilities
to Bennett. But have you forgotten, most masculine
Mies Pribble, that you thought the Union was an
nihilated in lea, on tho Wilmot Proviso contest; in
1950, on the Compromiserneasures (which you never
did liko); and in 1850, when it was saved by your
election. A gentleman from Pennsylvania told him
last week that our trade had fallen off in Philadel
phia. " Well," said oar most excellent Chief Ma
gistrate, "wby don't the manulacturers of Pennsyl
vania move South, to Maryland and Virginia,
where they would find a soft olio:tate, and plenty of
custom 3" I wish you could have seen the face of
the Pennsylvania Democrat after this remark.
"Why, my God ! sir," he said to me, " does ho
want us to leave our own State, and to deprive her
of the benefit of oar industry? We could not get
otir workmen to stay in the South, in the present
state of feeling, for a week." I smiled an " Oces
clonal" smile, and changed the conversation.
Chevalier Wykoff Is with us, as I predicted he
would be some weeks ago. Ile looks well. Ile is
an evergreen, and is gladly received in society.
His object is said to be todirepare for a visit of the
Bennetts. The difficulty is a Pryori. May not a
cowhide follow the Presidential welcome ?
The death of Henry D. Gilpin has occasioned
profound sorrow among his numerous friends and
admirers in Washington. No American statesman
was more universally beloved. During his con
nection with the public' service, he built for himself
the highest reputation for integrity, ability, and
patriotism. Although retired from polities, he
cherished awarm and heartfelt sympathy with those
progressive Ideas to which your journal is dedica•
ted. Surrounded with all the comforts and luxu
ries that wealth and refined taste could supply, he
was an ornament to moiety, and rejoioed in nets of
private charity, and in assisting all publie im
provements. The last time I saw him ho looked
forward to many years of enjoyment. Ills rest
dense in your oily was the abode of hospitality,
THE PRESS.-P
hie guests wore among the most distinguished men
of this and other countries, and his collection of
works of nrt had been selected with singular good
Judgment. Peace to his ashes !
Mt. Buchanan caused it to be announced this
morning that he had taken no port in the contest
for Governor in your State, and that hb had never
expressed a preference for Mr. Witte. Unfortu
nately, however, the friends of the latter are able
to prove that ho did declare himself im,his favor.
Some amusing disclosures will be made after the
meeting of your Reading Convention.
It seems to be credited that Mr. Wendell, who
has brought suit against certain of the high offi
cials, including I believe the Attorney General, for
certain acts of bad faith in reference to the public
printing, will not be as froo in exposing the Admi
nistration before the Senate Committee of Investi
gation as was expected. lie has intimidated the
President and his adversaries to that degree that
they will no doubt offer him any amount if he will
consent to hold his tongue.
You will hardly believe it, but it is nevertheless
the fad, that the foolish excitement created in the
South by the fire-eaters in Congress is exhibited in
constant potty annoyances towards all Northerners
who dare to visit Mount Vernon! A few days ago
two or throe gentlemen from Philadelphia took a
jaunt to the home and grave of the rather of hie
Country, and were studiously watched, as if they
had come armed with tire and sword, or as if they
were resolved to poison the entire State. On their
return, having purchased three canes out from the
homestead of Washington, which they had wrapped
in a blanket shawl, they soon discovered that they
had become objeols of suspicion, and it became no.
eeesary for them to explain that they oarriod no
deadly weapons. When wo remember how much
money has boon raised in the free States for the pur
chase of the estato of Washington from his descend
ant, we may conceive the feelings of those of our ci
tizens who desire to enjoy the pleasure of looking
upon the sepulchre of that great and good man,
whose life was one tribute to his oouutry, and
whose last appeal was a prayer for the preserva
tion of the Union. What a spectacle for foreign
nations'. American citizens, who cherish the re
collections of Germantown and Brandywine, and
Monmouth and Princeton, and Lexington, and
Bunker Hill, and who look upon the character
and the memory of Washington as only next to
the Deity, shut out from that spot which they have
been accustomed to look forward to as the Mecca
of the Itepublio, or if permitted to turn their steps
in that direction, dogged by spies, and insulted by
violent and abusive men ! I would not interfere
with the noble mission of the aecomplished Miss
Cenningham, of South Carolina, aided as she is
by many of the most beautiful and gifted of the
fair women of my own State ; but there is no de
nying the fad that among other injuries inflicted
upon tho fair fame of the Republio by this
unionists in tho South, that of see ticnalizing the
grave of Washington may bo regarded as the
most serious.
A good thing took piece yesterday, in otili of t,ho
departments of the Government. A Democrat
picked up the Washington Constitution, contain
ing a violent attack upon Adrain and itsynolds,
for voting for Pennington for Speaker. 5 ' Why,"
said the Democrat, " the National organ is turning
upon those two poor follows with the greatest
ferocity, but I have, as yet, seen no comment
upon the transfer of the entire Administration
party to the Know Nothiuge.”
Gov. Pennington, of Plow Jersey, who, T have
no doubt, will bo elected Speaker of the house, lo
one of the most conservative of mon, /Jo has
served an Chancellor of the State, and GoVeruor Of
New 'jersey, and also for several years pre
sided over the State genate, and in regarded as one
of the ablest lawyers mad qp)it distinguished
mon of that State. Ile is decidedly Ja favor of
protecting the groat staples of Pennsylvania uod
New Jersey, and will give us such committees es
will intone a faVorable consideration of the entire
revenue question. Tn conversation with several of
our Pennsylvania Repreaenfatives, I was glad to
hear that they had the highest hopes upping some
thing practical on the tariff question during the pro.
out Congress. Tho Southern people will soon bp
convinced that, whatever the Republicana may
have intended, there is no longer any disposition to
interfere with their rights ; and if they not
upon this knowledge and ,eo : operate with mon
like Afr. Pei:minima in rosard to too revision of
the tariff, such a law will pass both houses, wad bp
signed by the President, as will give general satis
faction. Mr. Cobb tie the only obstacle, but it is
hinted that the President et/J1 use his best endeavors
to induce him to yield to a reasonable and proper
modification of the act of 1857.
By tile` way, Commodore Stockton's last letter,
in which he proposes to give the South a slave
code, the Drod Scott decision as Interpreted by
Mr. Buchanan, and additional provisions for the
rendition of fugitive slaves, In exchange for specific
duties upon Iron, Is tether too generous.
It is aharaoteristie of the commodore to he libe
ral, but brave and open-handed ash° Is, I think his
proposition is rather more than the South expcots
at our hands, end is certainly more than we cap
afford to give

Mr. Douglas' resolution was taken up, and Mr.
HURTER, of Virginia, occupied the floor.
Mr. Huiseea said that the resolution of Mr.
Douglas was in itself a commentary on the times.
It was a resolution to repress civil war, founded on
an actual case of outbreak. lie enumerated the
different kinds ofprecinct+ and labor of the South,
which were not in rivalry with the labor of the
North. The Union, he said, was not a oollection of
hostile, but of eubsidiary interests. The foreign
exports of the South were two hundred million.,
of dollars, and the freights on them range from
seven to eight per cent. Ho went into the statis
tics to show how greatly the North was benefited
by the products of the South, in carrying them to
foreign and domestic markets, and In manufac
turing them. From four to five millions of the
Northern people aro sustained by these products
in the manufacturing interests. Heavy du
ties bad been laid In past times to pro
test the American manufactures of the North,
and the location of the United States Bank at the
North had contributed to hasten the coneentration
of commercialpower there. The action of the
South is naturally conservative, and Re interests
lead it to economy In the administration of the Go
vernment. The South had never asked one dollar
of protection, except the few sugar planters, who
constitute a small portion of the Southern people.
ifs referred to the essaults upon the South by the
North—the Missouri restriction—the abuse of the
right of potitien in asking for the abolition of
slavery in the District of Columbia and elsewhere,
and the suppression of the slave trede between the
States—the latter being necessary for the moral and
physical improvement of the negro, as it carried
him by a natural law to a climate better suited
to him. Its next referred to the personal
liberty laws of the Northern States—tho higher
law doetrino—the nomination by the same party
in the House of Representatives of au endorser
of the Helper book for Speaker, do. lie now
tidied what was the end Aimed at by the Re
publicans, unless It be the abolition of
slavery in tho Southern States. Igo pointed out
the evils that would result from a general eseaPai
pation—general decay at the South, the vessels
totting at the wharves at the North, and the man
ufacture, stopping. Its own interests ought to in
duce the North to change its policy, the effect of
which was to invite the South to secede. Suppose
such a policy of eon/dant irritation was kept up by
England and France towards each other, how long
would it he before the channel that divides.would
resound with the engines of 10 .1 411940 n Could
the same policy he pursued here without driving
the South to dissolution? It had been said [het
the North could coerce the Southern States Into
subwieelon. How could they hold them as con
quered provinces, and would not that necessitate
an entire chew of the Constitution ? Ile argued
to ehow the thing to bo Impracticable. lie maid

stitution of slavery; without it, tide continent

he seen that only Brazil, which had re
tained slavery, bad prospered. Slavery was
necessary in new countries, and the happiest rein
dos for the negro was that of master and elem.
lie defended slavery JP the abstract, and on the
ground of right. The helmet course for the North,
if it could not in conscience oarry oot the provi
sions of the Conetitution, was to propose tit repara
tion. lie believed that there might be a Confede
racy formed which would preserve some of the
benefits of the ',regent Union. and avoid the con
scientious scruples of the North. It might bo
necessary to form three or fear emetics- Unions,
bound together by looser lionde, and yet pledged to
resist foreign eneroaohnients. Hut helieeed
there was nu necessity for this, and there wee no
necessary collision between the interests of the

Tho plot was revealed by Sanchez to a warden.
Sanchez told the whole story, in which ha said
that both ho and Stephens were armed with six
barreled revolver , ' The original plot was, that as
the doors of the two cells were opened simul
taneously to pass the food into the cells, the two
were to rush out and each kill his man. Sunday
night last was fired for carrying oat this murder
rue plot, but the orders which the warden
gave, that the doors should not be opened at the
setae time, thwarted the scheme. Theo Stephens
proml•ed to commit both murders himself. Micron
as his cell.door was opened he was to kill the keep
er who opened it, and then rush into thu h tit and
kill the man at the fikke)C of Sat:Cl:ol . i ccli. He
was thou to release Sanchez, and the two were to
escape, killing ever) body who stood i n their wgy.
The revelation of the plot by Satchel alone p,e
vented its commuituation. Ills execrator. will take
