FLORENCE SEWING MIORINES
Can be seen at
No. 439 CHESTNUT STREET (sOoOnd. floor),
cohere all persons interested in sewing machines are in
•vited to call and examine this wonderful Machine.
It has been the .object of the FLORENOE SEWING
MOWN& COMPANY to supply a machine free from
the objections attached to other flrst-class machines. and.
after the patient, untiring labor ofears and a liberal
expenditure of capital in seeming the first mechardeal
talent, their efforts have been crowned wall success and
they are now offering to the public the MOST. PERFECT
SEWING M &CDINE IN THE WORLD. Among its
• many advantages over all other machines, may be mom
'toned
••• • .
Ist. It makes four different stitches on one and the
,same machine, each stitch being perfect and alike on
- both sides of the fabric.
0/waging from one kind of-stitch to another, as
'well as the length of the stitch, can readily be done while
the machine is in motion.
3d. Everestitch is perfect in itself, making the seam
secure and. uniform, combining elasticity, strtngth and.
beauty.
4th. It has the reversible feed motion, which enables
the operator to run the work to either thq right or left,
or stag any cartof the seam. or fasten the Ands of seams
'Without turning the fabric or stopping the machine.
6th. It is the most rapid sewer in the world. making
'
—Rye stitches to each revolution, and there is no °the!.
- machine which will do so large a range of work as the
FLORENCE.
6th.. It does the heaviest or finest work with equal
ta
ditty, 'without change of tension or breaking of thread.
7th. It hems, fells, binds, gathers, braids, quilts, and
.gathers and sews on a ruffle at the same time.
Sth. its siropticity enables themost inexperienced to
operate it. Its motions are all positive. and there are
sea fine springs to get , out of order, and it is adapted to
all kinds of cloth•work. from thick to thin, and is at
!most noiseless.
9th. The FLORENCE SEWING MACHINE is unequal
led in beauty and style. and mint be seen to be • appre

Mr. N. B. Browne and Mr. Justice Wood-
,To the Editor of The Press
Snt.: The following correspondence will explain
itself. To the interrogation from the Chairman of
the Democratic State Central Committee, a fitting
answer was given. He has since remained silent.
The discussion of the opinions of a candidate for
the highest office in the State is, in times like the
present, {both a right and a duty, and only to be
limited by what is due to courtesy and truth. Hav
ing been questioned for the exercise of that rights on
a recent public occasion in regard to the Democratic
candidate for Governor, I now: submit this corre
spondence, in order that the remarks then made by
me, with the authority upon which they rested, may
be judged by the public. N. B. SRO 'AWE.
September 7, 1883,
N. B, Browne, Esq.;
Sin: You are reported in The Press of this morn
ing as stating to a public meeting your,-personal
knowledge of the opinions of the Hon. G. W. Woo'd
ward, the Democratic candidate• for Governor of
Pennsylvania. You - say of him: He is, if possi
.ble, a conscientious Secessionists. No man in the
South carries the doctrine of Secession further than
he, Ssc, ,, Force is given to this litatetsent -by the
claim that it is made upon intimate acquaintance
with Judge Woodward. You introduce your version
of .his opinions with the declaration: "The speaker
was intsmately acquainted with that gentleman, and he
would nay that it it were possible to call from his
grave that arch-traitor John C. Calhoun, and place
him in the gubernatorial chair of Fenniklyania, he
would not be of more service to the Southern cause
than Judge Woodward will be if elected)? .
Will you inform me, whether you are corseatlY re
ported in the newspaper in which these remarks
appear? If you are, will you please to say,whila and
where you have had the intimate 'accjuaintance
with Judge Woodward upon which you impute to
him -opinions which he has never
u ttered to, his
friends or the public'? - - -
Very respectfully yours,

Bon. Charles J. Biddle, Chairman of the Dxmacralie
Stale Cenbal Committee:
Sin : I have to acknowledge the receipt of yours
of the 27th inst.,-in regard to my remarks concern
ing Judge Woodward, on taking the chair. at the
meeting of the National Union Party on Wednes
day evening , last. The published reports of the
speeches delivered on that occasion are obviously
incomplete and not intended to be full or literal. I
certainly did not undertake to represent Judge .
Woodward's opinions on the issues now pending,
from my own personal knowledge ; for I sm. not
aware of having exchanged words- with. him since
the outbreak of the present rebellion. On the 'con
trary, in commenting upon the opinions which I
attributed to him, I expres9y stated either my au•
thorily, or the nature of it, quoting partly from hie
speech of December 13, 1860, and partly from current
reports of his opinions, unreservedly given and
made public by their frequent repetition ; and, in
reference to these latter, stating that I had them
from undoubted sources, and could therefore speak
of them as confidently as if I had them from per
.
tonal knowledge.
But, as my remarks - have been thought worthy of
your attention, and that there may be no room for
misapprehension in regard to them, it it but fair to
myself as well as Judge 'Woodward that I should
repeat them for your information. I do so from a
'written draft of them.
In speaking of the remark recently made by a
leading Southern journal, that, since the defeat at
Gettysburg and the surrender of Vicksburg, the only
hope of the South was in French intervention or
Democratic successes at the . North, 1 said "that
foreign intervention was too remote a probability
for them to depend upon ; but as to the latter part
Southern of the programme, the rebels themselves
could not well have chosen more fitting instruments
than the principal Democratic nomineee at the
North. To say nothing of the candidate , for the
Governorship 'of Ohio, it might be affirmed of Judge
Woodward, the nominee in this State, that if John
C. Calhoun himself—that arch.traitor—could be
raised from his dishonored grave and placed in the
gubernatorial chair of Pennsylvania, he could not
serve the interests of the rebellion better. I say
this without any want_of respect to-Judge Wood
ward ; arrhis ability, igh character, and sincerity,
are undoubted. But these very qualities, in the
present case, make such opinions the more danger
ous, and lend them an influence more potent for
"To prove this s i have only to ask your attention
briefly to his views on the three issues, at this time
transcending all others -in importance; I -mean,
Slavery, secession, and the War for the 'Union. On'
each of these Judge Woodward entertains the views
of the most extreme Southern radicalism.—
"Firstsaa to Slavery. He is not content to stand
-with the State Rights Democracy of other ilays,-and
leave slaveholdera in the possession of such,eights
and protection as they had under the Cernstitillion ;
but in his speech of December 1860, he boldly pro
claims that 'human bondage and property in man is
divinely sanctioned, if not ordained - '-andthat
Negro Slavery is an incalculable blessing,' These
opinions, thus uttered r _have lost nothing by the
lapse of time; for, on another occasion, he declared,
uneeeervedly and emphatically, that 'to think
against' Slavery is a Sin, to talk against it is 'a
Crime P Andsmore lately he has affirmed, that
I agitation on the subject of Slavery is Infidelity,
and comes from the instigation of Satan.'
"But, as to Secession. Judge Wood Ward approves
of the course,lnd justifies the act of Secession, if ha
appears to hesitate as to the absolute, right of it.
-Although, looking in the oppoilite direction, he-yet- •
Eubtains and encourages Secession, slid no elan need
go further. Practically, the people of the 'South
havereached Secession by the same road. He may
be sincere and conscientious in hie - views, but he
must bear the responsibility-of having given the
sanction of his name and high position to their re
bellious couree. For if his speech of 1860 left any
doubt on that point, the recent approval and endorse
silent of it, on his behalf, by the Chairman of-the
Democratic State Central Committee, removes that
doubt. To republish such sentiments, after the fad
'of Secession, is an aggravation of the original of
fence, hard to reconcile with loyalty.
lee Thirdly. Judge Woodward is opposed to the war,
and in favor of peace, on any terms ; as - much so as
Yallandigham lor Fernando Wood. ' I have heard
- it stated, that, on former occasions, he rebuked the
eel Tier concessions of his own party to the patriotic
war spirit of the country. But we have no need to
place this upon any uncertain authority ; we have
bis language in 1860, in advance of Secession : ' We
hear it said, let South Carolina go out of the Union
peaceably ; I say, let her go peaceably, if she go at
all. , And in 1863, after South Carolina had gone
out, and ten other rebellious. States with her, to re
peat such language is to say let them'all go peacea
bly.' Truly, with the success of such a candidate '
and such principles, Gettysburg will have been
fought in vain, the battle for the defefice of our own
soil against the rebellion is still to be fought.",
These were soy remarks, so far as they related
especially to Judge Woodward, somewhat fuller
than the report, - but substantially as delivered.
They are atyour service. .
You will perceive that no statement is made upon
my personal knowledge as derived from him, but the
sources of my information are indicated in every .
case. I may add, air, that the most material part of
the hinguage above quoted, apart from speech of
1860, was derived by me from a public address deli
vered in' this city, by a gentleman of the highest
character, several months before Judge Woodward
was nominated. The sentiment then attributed was
regarded by the speaker, and I believe by most of
the hearers, as presenting the rare moral phenome
non of a cultivated and. Christian mind under the
dominion of such an idea, as that " to think against
slavery Ma sin ;''and how little protection against•
the lowest form of prejudice a high judicial training
and position afforded, when a judge could descend
from the supreme tribunal of the State to define it
to be " a crime to talk against slavery."
These sentiments, thua attributed to Judge Wood
ward, I fear, neither he neir you can escape. That
epeech, which must have sounded like a new and
strange Declaration in Independence Square, con-.
tarns them in express terms, or by necessary
cation. The identical thoughts, indeed, the same
peculiar turn and force of expression, are there. No
candid man will-deny it And whatever of - error
that speech contained originally, Has acquired start
ling emphasis of late, repeated and approved as it
has been by you on his behalf. Eleven of.the States
have Receded, as he invited them to do ; slavery has
solemnly challenged the world as to her right to be
the cornerstone of society and government, claim
ing, as he did for it, a Divine ordination ; and- the.
rebellion, in arms for more than half.. a presidential
term, has resisted the power and resources of the
Government, encouraged to do so by just such ad
vocacy of peace on any terms. And yet at a . time .
-when the fairest portion of our• State was (Mao
late in the track of the Southern• invader, and its
soil was red with the blood of so many thousands of
loyal soldiers who fell in its defence, - you rise in
your chair and. pronounce such sentiments as a
signal exhibition of -statesmanlike sagacity,. and
join with its author in reaffirming a speech; the
whole argument of which was to prove that, in this
controversy with rebellion, the South .was right and
the North was Wrong ! ,
In years past, wnen the defence of ySouthern
rights and institutions was made under the Coast-,
tution, and by means of legitimate agitation, I stood
in the free& rank of their friends ; but from the hour
thatviolent hands have been laid upon the Coned
' tntion and the Union, and. an impious attempt, has
been made to 'overturn both, I have not hesitated as
tO my'duty as 'a loyal citizen. -The example of such
loyal Democrats as Cass and Dickinson, Butler and-
Dix, Holt and Andrew Johnson, and a host of others,
is suilloient for me. have with them faithfully up
held the Government, with whatever influence I
•
Impressed with the transcendent -importance of
the issue now before the people of Pennsylvania, I
spoke at the Meeting - on Wednesday evening of the
.'opinions of judge Woodward with plainness, and, I
hope, with courtesy and fairness. If in my remarks
either sentiment or langpage was attributed to him
. which he disavows, I stand ready to make the con,.
rection. But if, on the contrary, they are ;labels&
Bally accurete, you mud, agree with me that it would
be difficult to end a better living representative of
the principles ofJohn,C.'Oelhoun than your candi

MR. EVERETT AND THE OHIO ELECTIOIi.-At
a large Union meeting held at Circleville, WO, on
the 29th ult., the following letter' was read from
'Hon. Edward Everett
EUROPE-
British Opinion—The Utility of the Anieri
can War.
(Prom the London Newt.
Th'e utilitarianism of the age seems to have reach'
ed its last extreme when we hear men talk of the
American war as "a useless war." A great many
people are saying so every day, without any appa
rent rironecioueness of the condemnation -a man
passes on himself when he discusses the utility of
saving one's country or dying for it.aaThe New York
Standard has opportunely republished, in its issue of
July 25th, a report of >a public meeting held in
Faneull Hall, six-and-twenty years since, at the in
stigation and under the influence of Dr:Charming,'
which many of our glib writers and talkers might
read= with advantage. At that meeting Chan-ang
andlother speakers distinctly recognized the occasion
as the beginning of a mike. through which the Re
public must inevitably pass, for its salvation or
destruction ; and since that day there has never been
,a time when the conflict could be regarded as'either
unnecessary or useless. It was as vital as it was in
evitable ; and it was the consciousness of this which
gave to that meeting a solemnity never rivalled by
anyoccasion in the season of war,
'it was not on behalf ef the negroert ' or about the
Degrees at all, that the citizens of Massachusetts
met in their old hall. It was to confer on the case
of the murder of a fellow-citizen who had been
quietly'using and - fteeerting his right of free speech
In a free State. This Massachusetts man,
Lovejoy,
was the first who fell in this war, which many
people call useless ; and he fell in asserting the right
of every citizen to speak mutter print his opinion on
public - affairs. After his press had been twice de
stroyed, he was himself shot at the door of his office
in 111inoirs, where he was hunted to death by the
same sort of champions of the South as those who
'have now been exemplifying Southern phivalry in
New York. The men of that day who thought that
any disturbance of the apparent harmony of North
and South'would be highly inconvenient, or as they
called it " useless," did -their utmost to battle Dr.
Ohanning's movement, as the proceedings show.
Th,e Attorney General of Massachusetts advocated
delivering up dissatisfied citizens to be dealt with
under Southern laws, rather than find any fault with
either Southern laws or lawlessness ; and when it
was doubtful whether dastardly or patriotic counsels
should prevail, the listening citizens felt that their
fate trembled in the balance. There must be conflict
in4iny case ; for the South, dominant at Washing-
ton; had begun to trample on such, essential rights
as must be fought for sooner or later: the question
was only whether the struggle should be prompt,
bold, and, decisive, or deferred, timid, and irresolute.
Such was the opening of the strife which we wit
nese at this day; and very vividly is the scene
brought up again by the republication of the report
of that critical meeting, which was one of Dr. Chan-
Ding's last solvicee to his country. He obtained for
his native State a deliverance from the` shame of an
unresisting submission to the Southern gag. The
brave and sound were fewer than he had supposed ;
but they - were ascertained, and they might be trust
ed to uphold the liberties of the citizens till they
should have to be fought for by an all-engrossing ci
vil war.
These is a sense in which these choice citizens
have always deirlared the war to be "useless" and
" unnecessary;" but it is not in the sense in which
our §aceesiiin newspapers make the assertion. What
the - sound Republicans mean is, that a bold and time
'ly resistance to unconstitutional action would have
brought. the South into order at any time before the
great concessions made by Northern cravens in 1850
and onwards. A stand-made for the right of peti
tion, when Mr, Adams contended for it in Congress
almost alone: would hare saved this war. If South
Carolina' had been called to account, in 1636, for
burning the contents of the mail-bags In the streets
of Charleston, this war might haVe been saved. If
Massachusetts had made a stand for her constitu
tional rights when, in 1645, Mr. Hoar—a venera
ble and distinguished citizen commissioned to con
fer > with the Government of South " Carolina
on the case of Massachusetts seamen in
the port of Charleston—was marched out of
Obruleston with his daughter, in violation of
all right and usage, this war might perhaps have
been averted; Webster was then in the Senate at
Waiihington, and he was always a dead weight on
the liberties of his State and country; the Southern
influence, commercial and political, was too strong
for the unaroused and unconverted people to resist.
The outrage. outrage was put up with, and'the present war
was thereby rendered , necessary and inevitable. It
is in this sense that retribution is traced by the na
tional conscience in the war which has cost so many
lives and so much misery. If the last generation of
citizens bad been up to tbeir duty, they would have
spared the South much guilt and punishment, and
their own children all the horrors of this time. The
last thing that the men of any generation would
assent to is any suggestion that the Republic is not
*worth all cost in pre serving it.
Between the day When Lovejoy was mobbed and
murdered in Illinois .and'last month, when the
-same things were done in New York, there have
been many riots. It could not be Otherwise, when
the South was growing more and more aggressive
and lawless, and the North was- uneasy in con
science, wounded in its self-respect, and suffering
undef the moral evils of its idolatry of the Union.
It.stoned its own prophets at one time; and long
after personal' violence on any large scale had
ceased, not a little social insult and wrong was in ,
flieted on its wisest, and bravest, and moat devoted
citizens. It is the contrast between those days and
'the present,, when the mobbing, and political igno
rance, the futon riots, the persecution of right, and
the ascendency of wrong are seen to exist only
among the dregs of the people, instead of in "gen
, tlemen of "property - -and and standing," which in
duces steady- patriots to exhibit the former
times by the, side of the present. It is this
contrast which gives to the events of the day in
America a significance of which pert European
critics have no conception. One would think that
they had tried often enough the assertion of their
opinion of, the uselessness or patriotic sacrifices and
efforts. We smell to hear a great deal fifteen years
ago, about the uselessness of the Lombards being
sulky with the Austrians, and of the pleasant things
they. might obtain by merely acquiescing in Aus
trian rule, and giving up dreams of a restored Italy.
The same sort of exhortation will be as much thrown
away upon the Americans as it has been on the Ita
lians. They, in common with every patriotic peci
ple, feel impelled to utter first the remonstrance so
- touching in old. Lear: ,
- "0! reason not the need!"
But all can and do reason the need, and show good
cause for so doing. If we would understand the en
couragement which animates the free Americans alike
under defeat and triumph, the conspicuous calmness of
spirit with, which they abide godd and evil tidings, and the
steadfast resolution with which they pursue their aim,
we must remember what they were going through before
They were known to be under any trial. They have pass
ed through the extmrience of an alarmed and divided
mind, and the lawlessness which that troulde engendered.
They know now what they are aiming at, and they are
con f ident as they are resolute about saving the Republic
for their children after them. Because they are reso
lute and inflexible, silly critics suppose them to be
passionate and vindictive. Because they have found
that a State can no more than a man, "live by
bread alone," and that something else than wealth
is necessary to welfare, gross and low censors sneer
at them for not letting well alone, and for punishing
themselves with a warfare in which the sensible
people of London and Paris can see no earthly use.
So be it! The use of the etTort is the concern of
those who make it; and, if they find time and atten
tion for any question of use at all, we imagine it
will be to ask what is the use of people at a distance
criticising a course of.action the very grounds of
which they do not understand.

THE POLISH REVGL.IITION.
[From the Paris Patric. Aropasi
The Abeinedu Nerd of. St. Petersburg of the 16th of
„August tells its readers that the insurrection in the
`kingdom of Poland is rapidly approaching a cousin.
dour: The. Russian - Government, it, is said, has
assembled so many troops there that almost every
district is completely occupied by them, and the in
surgent bands are vigorously . pursued. Several re.
giments of :cavalry have lately arrived in Poland,
together with a multitude of. Cossacks, who are
most useful in such a war as that carried on in Po
land nt present. The insurgents, consequently, not
withstanding their - courage, are forced - to yield to
numtiers, and they sniffer immense lose in arms and
ammunition, which they find it difficult to replace.
The national Government, perceiving the danger,
has commanded the insurgent- chiefs to avoid as
much' as possible any regular engagement, being
convinced-that such a mode of carrying on war can
not long be continued, and that no foreign assistance
is to be expected.
Colonel 'Krylr, who commands the insurgent
forces in-the palatine of Lublin, has forwarded.' to
the National Government the following report of
the victoryZyrzyn : " On the Bth of August I
- a
attacked cohimn consisting of 1,000 infantry, fifty
COSsackeand two pieces of cannon, which were es
sorting a quantity of treasure. The Russians -lost
181 killed, 132 wounded,-and 1150 prisoners. We ob
tained poeseesion of 500 rifles, the two pieces of can
non and all the baggage with the money, which I
hastened to deposit in a place of safety without
counting it. I believe that we captured - about 140,-
000 roubles (.£20,000) - the; remainder, which was es
timated at 60,000 - roubles, disappeared. Since that
battle we have beenwithout cartridges, which pre
vented me from - defeating another Russian corps. I
- had with me at Zyrzyn 1,500 riflemen, COO 'scythe
men and 250 horsemen: The riflemen alone were
engaged." -

and bishops have no right to deliberate together or
adopt resolutions in common without the express
permission of the Government : Considering that,
according to the terms of the declaration of L 862, it
is a fundamental maxim of the public law of France,
that the head of the Church and, the Church itself
have not received any power except upon spiritual.
matters, and , not upon temporal things; that, con
sequently, the• pastoral letters which bishops may
address to the faithful of their dioceses only must
be conftned.to instructing them in their religious

has been addressed by the archbishops and bishops
who have put their names to it, not only to the faith
ful and clergy of their respective dioceses, but to the
faithful and clergy of the French Empire, by the
medium of the daily netvspapersiarid by a pamphlet

Considering that that letter challenges the right of
the Government to enforce the respect due by the
bishops ,to the laws imposed by the Empire; con
aidering that it contains a censure upon certain acts

foreign policy ; that, under this double head, it con- .

Countersigned, BAROCHE,
ADDRESS OP THE EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEPH.—
The epeech which the Emperor of Austria made at
the opening of the Congress of Princes is as follows :
Most illustrious and beloved brothers and cousins,
most valued Confederates : An assembly of the heads
of the German nation, for the purpose of deliberating
on the welfare of the Fatherland, is an event which
has not. occurred for, centuries. May we, by the
blessing of an Almighty ProvidenCei be on the eve of
a happy future. .
Confiding In the elevated sentiments of my fellow
princes—confiding inthejust spirit of the German
people, who have been enlightened by experience, I
have sought to bring about a meeting at which the
German Princes should, in a fraternal spirit, unite
their hands for the strengthening of the Confedera
tion. I have Q,ecimed it my duty openly to express
my conviction that Germany justly looks forward to
a development of its Constitution which shall be in
accordance with•the-neceesities of the times, and I
have come in pereort , to-exchange ideas with my
confederates, and-to state what I consider feasible,
and what I, for my part, am ready to grant.
Your Majesties, and all of you, my illustrious and
beloved confederates, accept my thanks for your
kindness in consenting to act with me.
I Mire forwarded to my illustrious Federal allies
the draft of a project of reform which was drawn up
under my immediate superintendence. ,
Being of opinion that the sphere of - action of the
Bund should be enlarged, I, -in my plan of reform,
propose that the executive power shall be placed in
the hands of a directory, which shall have a Federal
council at its aide. We require the periodical meeting
of an assembly of deputies, which shall-have:full
power to participate in the legislation and in the
control of the finances of the Bund. I propose that
there shall be periodical meetings of .the German
princes. By the introduction of an independent Fe
deral Court a satisfactory , guarantee is given for the
proper administration of justice in Germany.
In all these matters the principle of the equality
of the several independent States will, as strictly as
possible, be upheld. At the same time due regard
Must be paid to theii political influence and to the
number of their inhabitants, in order that an effec
tive executive power and a general representation
in the Bund may be inseparably united:
All details are based on one simple idea—an idea
that has taken complete possession of my mind. It
is, that the- time has come for renewing, in a way
which shall be in accordance with the, spirit of the
times, the Bund which our ancestors entered into.
By allowing our peoples to participate in the Bund
we shall give new vigor to it, and enable it to up
-hold to the end of time the honor, power, security,
and welfare of Germany as one great and insepara
ble whole.
Doubtless my propositions will admit of improve
ment. • I readily admit that such is the case. But I
beg: my confederates to take into consideration whe
ther it is dr not our common interest not to post
pone, even for a time, the acceptance of a plan
which, as it .now stands t is a great improvement on
the present state of things in Germany. In the pro-
posed act of reform the necessary means for repair
ing its defects in a constitutional way are pointed
out. I see no prospect of finding a firm basis in the
question relative to the future of Germany by means
of prolonged deliberations. The .question must be
settled by the prompt, unanimous, and disinterested
resolves of the German princes, who, in matters of
inferior moment, must magnanimously make sacri
fices for the attainment of the great object which
they have in view.
. .
West illustrious and beloved brothers and cousins,
most valued Confederates—as you all share with me
the " exalting' , impression of the present moment,
so must you participate in the deep regret which I
feel that Prussia is nOt.represented here. 0" ke of
ing
iny-most heartfelt wishes has not been fuldlle . I
was not eo happy as to be able to perauade h.
William of Prussia to participate in person in our'
"work of union" (Einlgengswrgke), but, neverthe
less, I have not lost the conviction that the results
of this daywill be salutary. The King of Prussia
fully appreciated my 'arguments concerning the ur
gent necessity for a reform of the Bond.
King William had no other objection to make to
my proposition to hold. a. congress of princes than
that she necessary preparations for such an int
rortant step had not been made. In principle, the
King was not opposed to an assembly of princes, but
he
-was of opinion that a conference of ministers
ought to precede it. I called his attention to the
fact that all former negotiations by means of second
persons had been fruitless, that it was for us tare-' l.= the Bond, and that we were firmly, resolved
that " the German nation should no longer be de
prived of the means of enjoying greater (hohere),po
lineal development." Let us pass quickly over
mere matters of detail, for the sake of the incalcu-
- -
lably more important whole.
In good Federal faith let us preserve for the
mighty (kingdom of) Prussia the place to which
she is entitled, and let us hope that our unity will
produce an indelible impression on all German
hearts.
In so far as lam personally concerned, my Blue
trions confederates and friends, I shall always feel
satisfied that I have done all in my power to draw
closer the ties which unite all the German peoples,
and to make the Bund as one great plower (Gesamant

for the peace of Europe. -
Tile Horrors of the Libby Prison.
From the Hartford Press.]
If it is possible for our Government to do any
thing to mitigate the horrors of the tabby Prisons at
Richmond:the press ought to importune it night
and day, until the poor fellows who are imprisoned
there are treated with some little humanity. The
stories of suffering that reach us from day to. day,
proof accumulating upon proof, leave us no doubt
that the condition of the inmates of that prison is
horrible beyond expression.
- In the early days of the war, when the Libby was
open, to receive the instalment of Bull Run captives,
it was a comparatively clean, decent place, and
though the fare was rough, and the treatment some
times brutal, yet there were some mitigations to the
confinement. lithe prisoners had money they could
purchase some comforts. Latterly, however, com
forts are not to be had - in Richmond, at least by
prisoners ; and the premises, anti the prison itself,
have become noisome and filthy, and the rebels have
steadily grown more rigorous and inhuman. Rich
mond is a centre of real hate of the 'Union men.
It outdoes Charleston, even. Indeed, nowhere else
in the whole South 'are prisoners so barbarously
treated. There are not in other places wanting in
stances of kindness, and in many localities the
prisoners fare about , as well as the rebel.soldMrs
themselves, except that the sick and wounded are
almost invariably neglected.
We, printed, a few days ago, a 17eraldcorrespon
.,dent,s account of the awful life in the Libby; and
• the frightful physical and mental condition of our
poor fellows there. Shocking as the story was, and
almost incredible, ,we have reason .to believe it
to be literally:true ; and that the testimony on the
subject is sufficient to arouse the indignation of the
The filth of this pestiferous prison ie. indescribable
in print. Its inmates are crowded together, many
of Ahem sick, covered with vermin, with scant
clothing, with no beds, half fed upon' decayed meat ;
and spoiled bread, until with hunger and the horri
ble diet they sink into, a sort of idiotic stupor. They
lie down in filth like beasts. They maunder over
this - disgusting food with childish fondness. This
condition would wring pity fromany hearts but the
savage. _
From a private, but trustworthy letter, written
at Annapolis August 22, wotalm some add confilna
lion of the shocking treatment of prisoners every
where in and about Richmond, And bearing out the
loathsome narration in thalfercid. It seems to be
the rebel policy to exchange, if possible, the sick
and broken.down soldiers,first, they being selected
so that the Union army will get no recruits. Reg
ments and companies captured, are: disorganized as
much aspossible, and.the healthy are retained-in
confinement. Some '..luee,liundred paroled prisoners
had just arrived at Lninapolie from City Point,. and
one hundred and sinly.eight of them went at. once
into the hosttal : They all show rough usage,
and speak of "thet...sojeurn.upon the Island ea being
accompanied by treatment bad in the extreme, being
nearly starved, and.. shot al. for the slightest offence.
The rebels seem bound to test to the utmost their
powers of . emkirance. The men sent to _be be
numbed—a general stupor of the faculties and ener
gies. They report come four thousand still on the
Island, and that the Oharleston prisoners are ar
riving them , '-
" Some Italy pitiable stories of the condition to
which some of the prisoners are, reduced for food in
Libby are related. A sutler, a man of much in
telligenea, portrayed some of the 'scenes, with teals
in his eyes, of men who had become almost idiots,
who Would seize their crumb (of food) with childish
eagerness, and delight only to toy and play with it,
-and then lay it away, to afterwards find it stolen,
when the old vacant expression would settle on
their countenances, and they . would sit down in
hopeless despair."
This is horrible ! And thsee men are our friends,
brothers, neighbors, good soldiers, gentlemen, the
loved of women, those who have homes, and have
never known before what it was to want food had,
at least, decent lodging. And they , are going idiotic,
starving in filth and squalor.
The lion. Thomas D'Aroy McGee, with whose
erratic course our readers are familiar, having, re
cently suffered some pretty. severe castigations from
the liberal Canadian-press for his latter,day
narchical teachings, replies to The Globe in a letter
tinctured with mush bitterness in which he protests
against " far-fetched personal remarks drawn from
controversies with which Cinada and Canadians
have nothing whatever to do," and says:.
" What induces mono notice The Globe's plan of at
tack is that the writer or writers,' by a long, stride—
reaching from Ireland to Canada—endeavor from
these reminiscences to discredit that anti-democratic
policyfor British America of which I km an humble
advocate.' , Whether I have added one more to the
not unusual mental -phenomena illustrated by the
lives of Southey, Coleridge Wordsworth, Moore,
and Mackintosh, who were ail ardent revolutionists
at-one-and twenty ,and just as strong constitutional
late at forty, is a very secondary matter ; but whet!),
er the policy I uphold should suffer for my early aims
of omission or commission may be 'of some import-,
ancekto the country.

THE FINE ARTS.
-- W. H. Beard, whose "March of Silenus" at
tracted so much attention in our last Academy Ee
hibition, hag returned to New York from hist:our in
the White Mountains with his young bride.' He
made numerous sketehee and studies during his
absence, from which he will paint large pictures
during the coming autumn. Whitridge and LeClair
and Hays have also returned.
Cr G. Thompson is engaged e in his studio in the
University Building, New York, in painting a large.
sized copy of hie celebrated picture of "St. Peter
and the Angel" for a gentleman in Cincinnati. This
picture was painted by the artist while a resident in
Rome. Hawthorne alludes to it with praise in hie
romance of" The Marble Faun." Mr. Thompson
has also on his easel a landscape illustrative of
Wordsworth's poem of "Lucy."
Berlin is going to have an exhibition "in me
mory of the time of Frederick the Great and the
War of Liberation." Leutze's grand picture; :"The'
Retutn of Frederick the Great from the Imprison
ment at Kuetrin," into be lent for the occasion.
No less than nine artists have already been
drafted in NeW York—viz : A. Bietstadt, who is now
among the Rocky Mountains;`W. P. Dana, w. s.
Hennereey, William Hart, John 0. B. Tirtman, John
Pope, J. R. C-rifilth, George H. Hall, and Theodore
Pine. We know of none whO have been drafted in
this city.
—1 writer, on a visit to Rosa Bonheur, thus de
scribes her place of residence: " Dl'lle. Bonieeur
(so famous for her paintings of animala) has chosen,
as her residence in Paris, an old-fashioned house in
the Rue d'Aseas, with a large court-yard attached.
Entering this, you find a farm.yard in the heart of
the city, round it are stables - and cattle-sheds; in
the middle a good sized piece of pasture is enclosed,
where sheep, goats, and heifers, browse together on
the best of terms e eHere a - peacock airs his train in
the sun; there a lot of pigeons coo and beckon ;-
cocks crow, guinea fowls call, hens clamor over
their brood. At intervals, over the strident
din of the poultry, booms the deep bellow of
a Highland steer, or oneelong bay from a favo•
rite English hound. Orem the threshold- of the
painting-room, and there are these living mo•
dels multiplied on the -walls by studies more
or less finished, but all portraiblike in their
faithfulness—all instinct with that subtle charm
which has been well called the painter's magic.
Presently in comes a goat, evidently - free of the
sanctum; trots round with a critical air which is
irresistibly comic ;,wags his venerable beard over
sundry sketches of himself, and away clatters Cape
corpus again. Next appears Margot, a beautiful
mare, coming straight up to her:owner's easel with
those affectionate whinnying% which beg some
tokens of recognition quite -as plainly as human
utterance. The figure in a loose costume, some
thing between a blouse and a paletot, seated before
the easel, appears somewhat insignificant; but now,
as the artist looks up with a smile: at her favoritht
the glance at her face, which most of us know by
Dubufe's portrait, at the massive forehead, the fine
intent eyes, the physiognomy, in which strength and
simplicity are so rarely blended, suffices to impress
you with the presence of genius: ,
The San Francisco Sunday Mercury, dated July
26th, has this item : "Author and Artist —Our city
is at'present honored by the presence of Mr. Fitz
Hugh Ludlow (author of the famous book called
The HasheeSh Eater and Mr. Bierstadt, a land
scape painter of considerable fame. They came to
California overland, and will remain long enough
with us tar see all the eights of the Golden State.
Welcome, gentlemen."
—Powers, the American artist, in Italy, is tho
roughly devoted to the Union cause. It is worthy
of mention, also, that Castellani, the celebrated
Roman lapidary and goldsmith, 'persistently sells
his works of tasteful skill and beauty at some
twenty per cent below ordinary fixed prices to all
Union American purchaeere, on the ground that
such is his contribution to the general cause of free
dom.

members of the Academy of the Beaux Arts—Count

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THE MONEY MARKET.
PHILADELPeA, Sept. 73 1363
There is a steady stream - of buyers of gold in the
market, while sellers are far less numerous. Addi
tional European complications are having conside
rable weight with that class of people who, when
the war broke out, rushed into the market and con
verted all their property into solid gold. Of course,
it is a man's own business if he chooses to do this,
but we deplore the effect a simultaneous move
ment of this kind has on the market Gold opened
at 13I5„ strong, and rose to 133' during the fore•
noon, and fluctuated between 1.33.14@i33 until the
Clore. Government securities 'are steady, and the
supply of money on the street is more than adequate
to supply all the wants of those in need, but
the timidity displayed by lenders is causing the
weaker operators some trouble.
The conversions of currency into the five-twenty
loan last week, at the office of Jay Cooke & Co.,
amounted to over three millions of dollars, and was
well distributed over the loyal section of the coun
try. We have so often alluded to the qualities of
this loan that we have little more to say concerning
it. Our desire for its entire success, however, will
enable us to keep posted in'regard to it.
The stock market was steady for the better class
of securities, but weak and irregular for the fancy
stocks. A large lot of State fives sold at par. Small
lots of city sixes sold at 101 for thesld, 107 for the
new. Reading sixes, 1870, sold at 108; Pittsburg
coupon sixes at 90 ; Camden and Amboy sixes, 1889,
at 1073. f ; Elmira fives at 77 ; Cincinnati sixes at par.
Reading Railroad shares opened at an advance of

same at 57% bid: Philadelphia and Erie sold at 26.
North Pennsylvania at 18%, a considerable advance.

Chicago: Cattle Market, Sept. 5.
. . -
Barr CATTLE. —Tbe arrivals during the day have,
beene in exc'ess ol last week. The market is, however,
dull and inactive, consequently many lots remain un
sold. - Dintlets seem ufdispo ed. to make purchases
even at lower rates than were quoted yesterday. Per
Corm 'and 'Steers of -good quality sales have been ef
fected -at $33.85, bpt inferior grades, miless at a.
considerable reduction of prices are unsaleable- A
few toed: droves have been offered during the dm.'
but the general quality has been second and third rata
only.
Bone.—Whatever deficiency may have existed in the:
supply some ten or twelve days since has been more
than met by the arrivals of the present week. .The de
cline in sales, to which we referred on Thursday. baS
continued during to-day, and the market closed this eve- -
ning with fully tic reduction from the prices of yester
day. There has, been a heavy arrival of stock of crime
qualities, but buyers, evidently anticipating a farther
supply, are indisposed to do business at the present
figures, in consequence of which a considerablepropor
don of the stock' that has- come in to-day remains weer
for to -morrow'a market.
