The Song of tho City.
BY’ TUB nART> OF TOWER HALL
The oountry is fair. Nature’s beauties are there, f
In h'ossoms nml swset-soeated flowers ;
The fields, clad in green, full of promise are seen* U
And birds sweetlv ein« m their bowers.
These blessings of God on the sons of the soil*
Their hearts have Attuned to His praises;
But whde thty rejoiae in harmonious voice,
We sigh in dust, for the daisies.
There's life in the breeze that has traffiek’d with trees
Dispeosmc their balms on the mountains;
There’s health in the nle, whioli is Adam's best pale,
And flows Jrom the ooot, mossy fountains.
The countrv. nlone, eivrs the »ystem a tone—
The iifX’al.it imioh it amazes—
Then pack up ><mr inks the oars for jour wings.
And fly from the dust to lite daisies.
Let husbands and wives, if they value thairlivea,
Pack up. and he off for the seat on:
I write for thetrgnod, be it well qnaeratood,
In rhymes which are ringing with reason. \
It really is sweet, in a oozy retreat.
To laugh nt.ihe sun when it blazes;
And better, I trust, loan the breathing of dust.
Is snuffing the air o’er the daisies •
The husbands will all at the great Tower Hall
Wooure, at a bargain, thoir raiment:
Then each of them aH on his lady osn call
For (eve, ana suocoed as a claimant.
So proud sho w>lifool. to her lord she'll reveal
Her feelings m all of their phases;
'twculd be just if he •• kicked up a dust,”
Though dust he had left for the dames.
My wife, standing noar, with her lips to my eAr,
Says, Dardio,’ while others you're teaehmg,
Remember, I pray, what the moralists say— .
That piaotioe is better than prenohlng.”
“ We’ll leave for awhile 1” she ezolaims with a smile,
■JVhile on me sho lovingly gases.
We will, I reply: ere a week passes by
Your fu>o Itpt shall bloom 'mid the daisies. ' .

Hon. John It. Thomson, of New Jersey.
IForThe Frau.)
Upon reading tho tolcgraphie reports of the pro
ceedio'gs of Congress on tho 23d Inst., I find that
Senator Thomson, of New Jersey, said, upon the
floor of the Senate, that no man could hare,
•looted by our State Convention who wes snspeotea,
of having Douglas proclivities.
As I was oqo of the delegates who voted for
Douglas, I am, therefore, charged, in this publio
mmner, with having obtained my appointment
under false pretences, misrepresenting and betray*
ingmy constituents. This attempt to impugn the
motives, and charge with treachery, myself and
threeothersof my distinguished colleagues, resting,_
as it does, upon tho mere assertion of one indlvi-'
dual, would not bo noticed by me were it not for
the high offiola! position our ncouser occupies.
But lest my silence should be considered, by those
unacquainted with the p’olitios of our State, as an
acknowledgement of the truth of the charge, and,,
believing each-of pay colleagues, thus accused, to
be eminently able to vindicate himself, when, he
deems it necessary, X shall proceed to lay before
the public some facts In relation to my own publio
record upon the existing controversy, by' which I
think I shall prove conclusively that Mr. Thomson
is either very ignorant of the politics of hiß own
State, or else actuated by motives not to be misun
derstood, in publishing to the country that which'
he knew to be false, io order to oreato, if possible,
an erroneous impression, and, with tbe advantage of
his high position as United States Senator, assist the
present Administration in its desperate effort to
bo revengod upon an outraged people, who indig*
nantly resist its usurpatflb, and spurn its attempted
demoralisation and disorganization of the Demo*
oratio parly.
X was elected, in the fall of 1856, to the Sen&to
of New Jersey, thoroughly committed and pledged,
in common with all other Democratic candidates,
to the doctrine of nonintervention by Congress
with the domestic affairs of the people in the States
or Territories; consequently, when it becamo ap
parent (to use Sonator-Bigler’s pertinent expres
sion) that the- “ Adrainistfajion.w&s .getting weak
in the knees, and winced ; under tho Southern thun
der ” —and as our United States Senators, Wright
and Thomson, gave evident signs of trepidation—l
felt it to be my duty, as a public sentinel, for the
purpose of encouraging these offioiala H,to stand up
to the work,” os well ns to prevent the Democracy
of New Jersey from being placed in a false and
absurd position, to* introduce into the State SenHto
a series of resolutions, pledging our State to sus
tain, literally and praotlc&Uy, the doctrine of non
intervention and popular sovereignty, as under
stood by tbo people during~the campaign of 1350 to
be expressed in the Cincinnati platform; also de
nouncing the Locomptou Constitution as a fraud,
and instructing our Senators to vote against It.
I shall not speak now of the favorable manner
in which those resolutions were at first received,
and how they were afterwards stifled in committee;
my public record. Upon introducing the resolu
tions referred to, I endeavored to set forth my
views !n regard to the Territorial controversy in a
speech I then made, unequivocally advocating the
1 coarse that Judge Douglas has so consistently and
horoionlly pursued. This speech was published
extensivoly by the various Democratic papers
throughout the State.
On tho 23d of Mnrob, 1858, X received an invi
tation from the committee on behalf of the Demo
cracy of Sussex, to Attend a mass meeting called
for tho purpose of giving expression of opinion in
favor of the course pursued by Senator Douglas,
and also to instruot their Representative, Hon 1
John Huyler, to vote against the Lecompton Con
stitution. My letter in reply, which was published
at the time, endorsed most emphatically the objeot
of the meeting, and condemned, in as strong lan
guage as I could use, the course of our public
servants at Washington, who were, in my opinion,
setting the will of the people at defiance, and
trampling the only sure guarantee of constitutional
liberty in tho dust.
And thus I might go on up to the very hour of
our State Convention, showing that whenever the
occasion called forth'an expression of opinion from
me, whether in publio or private, 1 have invaria
bly and uubesitatingly expressed tbe same senti
ments. It would have boon impossible for mo to
have given greater publlolty to my sentiments
throughout tho State, or to have given stronger
assurancoof my consistency and sincerity. There
fore, the man who says that I obtained my ap
pointment without even a suspicion of my pro
clivities, upon tho part of the Convention, asserts
that which is entirely and absolutely falso. and
deserves to bo styled a reckless calumniator.
I was selected by tbe representatives of the First
district, (without solicitation on my part,) and
tlocted almost unanimously, as a delegate to the
Charleston Convention, in fall view of my undevi
aling and unmlst&k&blo record up to that hour. I
gave no pledge to any one, nor was any required
of me, except that I would be consistent with the
past. X had a right, therefore, to believe, as I
did, that I was selected because I was known to
be In favor of non-intervention for our oreed, and
Judge Douglas for ourosndidate; in whloh belief
I am much strengthened by the fact that wherever
I have been since my return I have met with uni
versal approbation of my in the nu
merous letters I have reoelved I have net met
with one disaonting voloo. I shall, therefore, if
my health will permit, go to Baltimore determined
to fulfil tho anxious expectations of a confiding
constituency, by demanding tho confirmation of
tho gallant statesman of Illinois, whoso nomina
tion is considered as already having been fairly
made.
Before I close this article, I would remind the
honorable Senator that my efforts, as a member of
tho New Jersey Legislature, in trying to seoure his
re-election, were entirely disinterested. I was
willing to give up my personal preferences fsr
other and more congenial candidates, simply be
cause I wished to commit the Democracy of New
Jersey most thoroughly to the principle of the
Kansas Nebraska bill, by sending b&ok to the
United States Senate menator from a non-slave
holding Stnto who had voted for that celebrated
bill; and perhaps tho Senator will remember that
it was through my instrumentality, moro than that
of any other, that this result was effeoted.
I therefore cunnot account for, his unjustifiable
reflections upon me, except, as troachery to princi
ple aud base ingratitude to friends. appear to be
distinguishing traits of this Administrate, it may
be that its devotees Are compelled to wallow in
the samo infamy ; and If such are the terms de
manded by this dynasty for its favor, let every pa
triot set his faoo against such unjust and faithless
servants, and rally around one who is overy way
worthy of confidence, and will load us to a gloriouß
viotory. . John L. Sharp.

Ip answer to -/apeatod inquiries, I have to say,,
that when leee-tfc© wheelbarrow man at work, t
will believe* that the 8t CroU and Superior Kail
road Company WUI build the road. They have
six years left only to secure the land grant. The
Minnesota parties were over forty miles from Bt.
Paul when last heard from, surveying a direct
route to head of Lake Superior. , The laws of
Wisconsin are very strict in regard to delinquent
tax-payers. In 1859, the county advertised and
sold out all delinquents; the printers* fees at twen
ty-five peats par, parcel, or description, amounted
% to $2,721.18. Tbe foes and making out lists, certi
ficates, Ac., amounted to $1,191.20; total,expense
-b? tax-sale of 1859, -wia $3,912.38. ’
, The late Legislature, in order to further eoeree
delinquents, passed a law providing that all this de
linquent property, bought In by the county, should
be readvortised and* resold In 1860,-together with
the delinquencies of the year 1869. This would
have been a splendid job tor certain parties in Su
perior, but Mr. J. 8. Ritchie interfered, and wrote
idown to the Legislature a few days before their
adjournment. The rules were suspended, and a
bill for an act postponing the tax sale was driven
through and passed, and also through the Senate
the next day, and signed by the Governor. The
representative of this district, Hon. Mr..Wliittle
sea, deserves the thanks of our community.. This
movement was a master-stroke of Hr. Ritchie, who
Is determined to take care of thfc property-hold
ers, rosident and non-resident.
l am unable to give you the names of, the Min
nesota bolters, who deserted Douglas under the
most explicit instructions. They-should bo branded
as traitors, in company with the two Indiana bolt
ers. The conduot of these men reminds me of tho
Philadelphia delegation of the 11 People’s ” party,
at the judicial Convention in Harrisburg in 1858.
which boiled from one of your judges, some on the
first ballot, under positive instructions. The rules
of honor do not evidently guide politicians. Tbe
late election of Judge Dixon by one. hundred and
fifty majority in this State, proves that we can
carry Wisconsin under the Douglas banner.
American Citizens m Mexico.
[From the N. O. Picayune.)
Our attentive correspondent at Minititlan. Te
huantepec, transmits to us the following official
statement of outrages committed upon American
oitisens in Mexico. The case, as will be seen, has
been laid before our Government; but what redress,
if any, can be had, remains to be aeon:
Consulate or the U. S. op America, )
Minititlan, May 11,1860. j
Sir: I have the honor to report'to you that F.
L. Hunt, Esq., an American and a eitjien of Obio,
arrived at this port & few days ego from Oaxtcs,
where ho has been a prisoner for some months by
order of General Cobos. Mr. Huct has been badly
treated, and desires me to lay before you a state
ment of bis misfortunes, in hopes that you will see
that justice is dono to him, or that the puhlicatiou
of his-sufferings may benefit and warn his fellow
countrymen.
Mr. Hunt and Dr. Wm. M. Carpenter, a friend
of Dr. Gwin, formerly or California', and now of
Arifcona, went from California to Guatemala. Our
minister there and thevPresident of that Repablio
gave them passports to go’ via Mexico to Amnno.
.These two gentlemen reached the Btateof Oaxaca
unmolested, but at a short distance from the capi
tal of that State they were arrested by a band of
I soldiers jn a most rude andJbrutgl .manner,, and
were brought before General Cobbs. The General
|H»e« »cd OQBld find
two traveler? to be conducted.to the quarters of his
soldiers, where they, wer*-imprisoned, and only as
an aot of grace it was permitted that they might
buy their own provisions at exorbitant prices.
After an ,imprisonment of two months, during,
whtoh time the two gentlemen were In constant]
-fear of their lives,and received dally the greatest,
insults, being told, as if it was a crime, that they
were Americans, they were brought again before,
Cobos, who informed them that they were at liber
ty to go where they pleased, but that they had to
leave the oity immediately, and without passports,
and that if he found them twenty four hours after
this in tbe city they would be shot.
As previously orders bad been issued to all the
old outposts not to let any one pass outside the for
tifio&tions without a passport from the general, this
order of Cobos was oettain death. Leaving the
town, the soldiers or picket guard would have shot
them, and remaining, they would have been exe
cuted by Cobos.
Nevertheless, the two gentlemen tucceeded In
leaving Oaxaca, but only a few leagues distant from
the city they were overtaken by a band of armed
men, who were just about to shoot them when Ibe
Chief Justice of Oaxaca arrived on the spot and
saved their lives, but ordered.them to betaken
back to the oity.
Again before Cobos, the two gentlemen were
treated with great violence, and the general in
formed them that if he saw them again he would
order their execution immediately. Even the en
treaties of some of tbe officers could not change the
order of their cruel leador. Resigned to their fate,
.they left Cobos, but soon afterwards were addressed
by the Judge of tbe Supreme Court, who volun
teered to pass them through tbe pickets.
, Onco more outside of Oaxaca, Messrs. Hunt and
Carpenlor took tho road to Tehuantepec; but ns
tho adherents of Mlramon are in possession of
many villages, on the road to the last-named city,
and the two gentlemen .being without passports
from Cobos, thoy were nearly in every little place
arrested, treated in the most inhuman manner, and
could make only their flight good by escapes from
prisons.
It Is tbe desire of Mr. Hunt that I shall inform
you that, besides the ill treatment and imprison*
ment which he has suffered, he has lost nearly four
months’time, and is obliged to travel about three
thousand miles against his will, and destitute of all
his baggage and means. Mr- Hunt will go, by tbe
United States, so soon as he shall havo received tbe
means of doing so. ,
It seems that Cobos made no secret of his hatred
against tbe Americans, because he stated to Dr.
Carpenter and Mr. Hunt that his country was at
war against the Americans, and that he would
shoot all those who toll Into his hands.
These outrages require no comment at toy
hands, and I would only remark, that, if ihe
Liberal Government of Juarez is not strong enough
to put an end to them, an -incensed American
public and our Government ought to take effective
steps to do so.
I am respectfully, your obedient servant,
A. C. Allen,
United States Consul.
To Hon. Robert McLank, Minister Plenipotentiary
of the United States of America for Mexico.
Crop Prospects, dec.
[ Prom the Davenport Democrat and News, May 25 ]
, Just as the agricultural community and the
public generally were commencing to quake with
Fear lest the coming crop would prove a failure on
account of drouth, the windows of Heaven wore
opened, and refreshing rains poured down upon
the parched earth in great abundance. From
those plaooa whence came fearful predictions of
failure, now we hear woras of encouragement and
?;ladness. The fearful phantom has been driven
rom our borders, and to-day tho prospect of a
noble crop, such a one aa was nover before sur
passed, if, indeed, equalled in the State’of lowa, is
now. acknowledged on all sides. Our State will
bring into market this year, we predict, a crop of
grain which will make the people stare. One
third more breadth of land has boon cultivated
than in any former year, and the crop will be Cor
respondingly heavy.
The Buffalo (N. Y.) Republtcan t of Tuesday,
say b :
“ Wo are enjoying the most delightful weathdr In
this region, and, in fact, throughout Western New
York, and the crops and fruit bid fair for a most
bountiful harvest. 1 ’
The Rochester Democrat has the following:
“In this seotion of the country wheat looks
splendidly, and thero is cycry reason to hope that
U Is far enough advanced to escape the ravages of
tbe wcevU to a great extent.. A gentleman from
Wheatland, whose name we cannot now remember,
presented us last week with a number of Btalks
grown on his farm, whioh varied from twenty to
twenty-four inches In length, and they were headed
out finely.
“ The crop soems to be as near maturity now as it
did last year on the 4th of Juno, at whlehitime
this part of the State waj visited by a heavy frost,
whiou did an, incalculable Amount of mischief to
almost all kiads of vegetation. Wheat was’even
then considered in a remarkably forward condi
tion.”
The Toronto LtatUroi Monday has the following
In regard to orops in Canada:
“ Our accounts from all sections of the country
are of the most ohoering kind. The fall wheat has
received but little damage, and the spring crops
look luxurious. Everything promises well for the
farmer.”
The London Court JouriUd says that the Em
press of the French*, who is known to take a groat
interest In Spanish polities, at an evening reception
at the Tuileriea lately, held a very warm dlsonesion
with the Spanish ambassador. Persons near say
her Majesty Was reproving the Spanish Government
for what she thought too much Severity toward Or
tega and his companions. At last tho Empress
oftfled the Emp«wr to give his opinion. Ma
iesty.s&id he could not support'hep tiewß, and
bowed politely to his Excellency of where;
upon the Empress was supposed to have bee*,
snubbed. *

The Rope-walking Mania.
Dg lave crosses the patebson falls on a
TIGHT ROPK.
Mods. De Lave, who, following in tbe wake of
Blondin, at Niagara, achieved some notoriety by
his feats at Rochester in crosrimg GeneaerFalla on
a. tight rope, yeeterdav gave a similar exhibition
at Paterson, N. J., whfch was witnessed by many
thousand persons. The place selected for the
k Grand Ascension” was below the where
the river passes through a gorge at least six hun
dred feet in width, and nearly two hundred feet
deep. The rope, whioh was of Manilla, and of the
rise of an ordinary hawser, was stretched across
this chasm from near “The Cottage on the Cliff ”
to the top of “ Morris’ Mountain.**. Os tbe cliff
side it was rove through a stout block near the top
of a tree, to give it the required height or level,
and was thdh hove taught And firmly secured.
Lateral and perpendicular stays "of small rope
were also attaohed to the large one to render it
firm, and prevent it from swaying under the-feet
of the performer. In order to turn the affair to
the best account a high board fence protected'the
entrance to the grounds; but .while hundreds paid
their quarter, thousands who did not pay witnessed
tbe feat from prominent points in’ the neighbor
hood. Morris’ mountain was covered with specta
tors, a large portion; of them being ladies. The
“island,” the windows and top of the gun-mill,
the print-works and. machine-shop, commanding a
view of the scene, were alive'with people. It .was
estimated that nearly ten thousand persons wit
nessed the sight.
•Every thing being in readiness, De Lave made his
appearance shortly after 4 o'clock, and mounted
the ladder which led to the startiog-pointon the
rope. He was greeted with cheers, which ho ac
knowledged by taking off his cap and waving it to
the multitude below- He paused a few.mpcieaW to
survey the rope, nn<l after, directing that two of the
stays, which were rather slack, should be-tight
ened, he poised himeetf upon the rope, with apola
in hand, and began the walk; keeping time with
the band, whioh played “ Hail Columbia.” ,The
oheers of the multitude were now hushed,.and each
one held his breath as the little Frenchman walked
rapidly forward over the dizzy heigh! The' rope
slightly swayed under his step, but there was no
interruption in- his progress, and in about four
minutes he reached the opposite ride at the top of
Morris’ mountain. ......
I Prolonged cheeTS now greeted him from both sides
| of the fearful chasm over which he had -passed.
Here DeT»ave passed among the crowd, receiving
what each one would throw into his cap, by which,
it is said, he realised a handsome sum .Ip about
fifteen minutes he again madaßia appearance,
having exchanged his jaunty little oap and feather
for a drab Kossuth hat. ; After -waving a signal to
the bind, whioh struck up thb "Mammals*,” be
began his return. In thei*MdW©fth*rope he
stopped, laid down upon Me back,, ruse, sat astride
of the rope, then on one, ride, and. repeated these
feats several times, the spectator# cheering frem
both sides of the river. He concluded his walk,
appearing considerably u winded,” and in a pro
fuse perspiration. The performance was now con
cluded. Be Lave.gavenotieaof a repetition of the
feat on Monday next, when he .would„ walk with
peach baskets tied to his feet, stand on hw head,-
and perform other “ terrific ftats ” A largo naw=.
bet of pick packets were on the ground, and siML
man, Israel Moneon, a batcher doing berineeAo*
Main street, lost his pocket-book, containing tfeh
avails of hi# week’s basin $ll5.—JV, JjR
