Relations with Japan.
The quietest and most inoffensive person
in the world may get into "a row" without
having given provocation to any one ; thus,
rthough our policy ever since we becEitne a
-nation has been to' keep Out of wat with
.:.foreign Powers, we have been plunged into'
it, more than once, without having com
mitted any of the aggressive acts that usual
ly to it ; thus, in 1'798, the conduct of
'France in seizing British vessels, and mann
-factarea in neutral vessels, very nearly drew
ua into actual hostilities ; thus, in 1807, the
_misconduct of England, on the rights of
neutrals, made President Jgggaßsox close ,
American ports against Paitish ships of war,
created a necessity for the non-intercourse
Act, and for a time suspended our trade
'with Great Britain' and France ; thus, in
1812, a little befOre the Orders in Council
'were revoked, we - were literally goaded, by
- wrong and insult, into that war with Eng
land; of which the victory at New Orleans
was 'the glorious close ; thus, in 1835,
when France played a shuffling part about
paying certain indemnity monies, we were
'Within a very short distance from hostilities,
Tor ANDREW J..i.exsolv, who felt compelled
to threaten them, was not the man to pro
mise what he did not mean to perform ; thus,
we were led into the Mexican war, in 18411-
47, by no aggressive feeling of our own., In
short, as. our whole history shows, we have
consistently and constantly acted on one
principle—of letting foreign nations alone.
War, or rumors of war, came from them, not
from us,
Here, again, as the published despatches
show, we are involved in actual hostilities
with the Japanese. It has been known for
some time that, urged by their dislike to, and
jealousy of; foreigners, the Japanese have
behaved to the French and English, on
.sea and land there, which has led to a diffi
culty between them which wiil speedily
eventuate in war. The Japanese reluc
tantly paid sums of money, as com
pensation to the families of cer
tain subjects of France and England,
- who were barbarously murdered in Japan.
Tut they have declined to surrender the
perpetrators of these foul deeds, or to punish
them. The consequence is, that when the
naval and military forces of England and
France are largely augmented, there will be
a war with the Japanese. •
We have endeavored, by the strictest-neu
trality amid these troubles, to keep out of
them; but in vain. A Japanese brig, with
out the shadow of a provocation, has fired
at an American steamer in the port of Ka
_nagawa, and, as was his duty, the officer
-commanding the U. S. gunboat Wyoming
- went in pursuit of the saucy assailant, and
got engaged in a contest with several Japa
nese vessels and with the shore-forts. The
offending brig that fired at the American
steamer was sunk, and a Japanese steamer
was greatly injured by the fire of the Wy
vrning. Five Americans were killed and
'four wounded in this encounter. French and
Dutchvessels had also been fired into by Ja-
panese vessels belonging to and bearing the
flag of Prince COOSIIER 7 a gentleman who ap
pears very earnest in the determination not
'to allow a single foreigner to remain in Ja-
Tan. lie probably knows how the English
have settled down as masters of India and
as protectors of China, and how the: rench
have colonized the best part of Cochin
China, and may naturally think that the
best way to preserve their own freedom is
to dispense with, the presence of all fo
zeigners.
Meanwhile, as we have said, reinforce
ments were expected from England and
France, and the commanders of the British
and French fleets, in Japan waters, were
co-operating, cheerfully and efficiently, with
the Americans. Aar with Japan appears
inevitable, and we do not see, at present,
how we can avoid being mixed up with it.
Let no one think that this will necessarily
be - a brief contest with and a quick conquest
of the Japanese. They are a military na
tion, very unlike the effeminate and white
livered Chinese. They have steamboats,
-constructed by, their own mechanics, and are
masters of gunnery and the manufacture of
all descriptions of fire-arms. Their mission
-to the United States, in 1860, and to Europe,
in 1862, was really one intended far the pur
suit of knowledge. They make:-watches
and mathematical instruments. They menu
facture silk and cotton' better than the Chi
.
nese. They, brew, distil, and make wine.
'They are essentially a military people, and
have a large population, variously estimated
at from thirty to fifty millions. Whoever
.goes to war with them must avoid he fatal
error of underrating their mental or physi
-cal ability. We have no doubt the 'United
States Government will do what is fitting in
the inemises. There is scarcely any Ame
rican citizen, we know, willing to submit to
our flag being insulted by any power upon
the earth. It will, be singular, however, if,
in a war with Japan, our stars and stripes
float, in the van, together with the Union
Jack of England and the tri-color of France.
THE most promising element in the pre
sent campaign is the readiness, and even
the eagerness, with which active and promi
nent Democrats assist the cause of the
- Union. There is not a county in Pennsyl--
vania in which men heretofore known as
leading Democrats have not openly taken
ground in favor of Governor Cow= and a
- vigorous prosedition of the war. If it would
not consume too much of our valuable space,
we could give columns of the names of De
mocrats long attached to that party, and
now voluntarily enlisted among the friends
of the Union, and the friends of the Union
candidate for Governor. This is especially
true of Philadelphia, in every ward of
whiCh numbers of old Democrats are now
-arrayed on the side of the Union candidate
for Governor. It would be remarkable if it
were otherwise. The truths involved in this
great struggle for the preservation of the
Government, the inconsistency and falsehood
.-of the new leaders of the Democratic party,
- the fact that the defeat of Cu - am= would be
hailed by the rebel armies as their triumph,
and would be accepted by our foreign. ene
mies as en evidence that the people of Penn
sylvatiia were ready to close this conflict by
the basest concessions, these are the argu
ments which appeal to every Democratie
heart, and•arouse and organize the energies
of every American citizen. The stringency
of the Democratic organization may restrain.

. so well known in politics, will come forth
on the day of election, and show their de'Vo
ton to the country:
THERE was a Copperhead demonstration,
in favor of free speech, at. Clearfield, on
Tuesday evening last, when the Hon. P. 0.
:Znantion, au old-line Democrat, addressed
;the Union people of that place. He •was in
cterrupted and assailed by a gang of rowdies,
and nothing but his indomitable pluck and
perseverance cowed and overawed the mob
that • was set upon him. Clearfield is the
home of ex-Governor, ex-Senator BIG - LER,
who traverses'Pennsylvania scattering the
seeds of treason and disaffection, and is
magnanimously permitted to do so. What a

party, one of the chief accusations of which
is that the friends of Mr.' Lurcomi are op
posed to the freest utterance of personal and

The painting upon the flag was itself a mas

WHY do not the friends of WOODWARD,
who'charge that the meetings of the soldiers
in favor of CURTIN are prepared political
demonstrations, get up one or two on their
own hook ? Why do not the sick soldiers
in the hospitals speak out for WOODWARD ?
Why do not the convalescents at home
speak out for WOODWARD ? - Why do not
the honorably discharged soldiers speak out
for WOODWARD ? Echo answers, why ?
Tian Copperhead newspapers have raised_
a great hue and cry against the large debt
accumulated since the commencement of the
war, but they never say that if they had in
duced their Southern friends to - submit to
the regularly and legally elected President
of the United States, we should have had no
large debt.
• WHENEVER a Democrat leaves the pre
sent Copperhead oreanization he is de
nounced and assailed, as Judge SnAtoToN
was acelearfield, but if he remains inside
he is praised and canonized. Even FRED.
DouoLAss - would be welcomed into the so
called Democratic organization if he agreed
to support GEORGE W. WOODWARD. Un
fortunately, however, for that organization,
neither white men nor black men are wil
ling to desert their real opinions for the pur
pose of assisting it in the coming election.
WHEN such leaders of the Catholic Church
ORESIDS A. BnoNsox, the progresSiVe
philosopher and fearless thinker, take
ground for .A.rrmt - Ew G. CURTIN, why
should an Irish Catholic agree to support
GEORGE W. WOODWARD, who, of his own
accord, and against the wishes of his own
party, attempted to disfranchise the adopted
citizens ?
WHENEVER we hear of. an Irishman who
intends to vote the Copperhead ticket we
feel like referring him to JOHN 21ItTcuEnn,
who is now the eiitor of a traitor paper in
Richmond, Va., whose whole course is at
once an outrage and an insult upon his past
professions and practices, and whose pre
sent condition is a retribution and a moral.

grobe, conducted by our good friend LEwis,
takes ground as follows;
“ We are not certain 'we will be sustained in our
independent course, but, come weal or woe, we
shall pursue just such a course as we believe will
give the most aid to the preservation of our Govern
ment,' and the most effective opposition to the re.
hellion, traitors, and sympathizers. We have in'our
midst, and, throughout .the country, men who 'pro
fess to be loyal Union men—men who believe they
are as good Union men as any of those who have
voluntarily offered up their lives on the battle-field
in the defence of our flag, but in our opinion they
are' better party men than they are either good
Union men or good citizens. A disloyal man is not
a good citizen. He Can be disloyal, and yet be igno
rant of the fact. He has always been a supporter
of Democratic nominations, and now that the or
ganization has got- into the hands of traitors—the
friends of - the leading rebels in rebellion against our
Government—be=-still sticks to party, votes the
ticket, and, by so doing, gives the rebels as much aid
and comfort as he possibly could were he an open

LETTER FROM "OCCASIONAL:O
WASRINGTON, Oetbber 2, 1863.
The youthful student of 'men and things
can require no broader or better field for
observation than that presented in the po
litical contest Sliortly to be decided in Penn
sylvania by the votes of the people of that
State. He can there see and read human
motives - with incalculable advantage. Seve
ral strange phases wilt awaken his surprise,
but chiefly (which is nowhere more appa-,
rent than in Pennsylvania) THAT e. VIOLENT
EFFORT IS BEING, MADE TO CONVERT TEE
OLD DBMOCRACI . OF THE AMERICAN UNION
INTO A TARTY OF FALSE CONSERVATISM. And
still more anomalous, that this effort should
be made in a time of war. And not only
is it sought to make the
,Democritcy a party
of false. conservatism. The struggle is to
make it the embodiment of an Aristocracy—
not an Aristocracy of Intellect, of Industry,
or of Enterprise, but .an aristocracy of
Wealth and - of ShiveryHof - Wealth coined
out- of Slavery, and •of Slavery established
upon the foundation, of infinite and. inde
scribable: hunian degradation. - Is not this a
monstrous mission for **** party which began
its, career as the soldier and champion of the
extremest progress? in fact, was so
extreme as to shut out'of its vocabulary the
merest hint of the . word Conservatism?-
Which canonized the ultra Jefferson into its
idol and'its god ? Which approved nothing
that was not radical and thorough; making
of Jackson a worship and;an example,
because he scorned precedents and
courts, and even Constitutions, if the wel
fare and salvation of his country required it?
- Which shouted back every. cry for Liberty
from every nation in the world?'was this
element of the "fierce Democracie" that
made it the favorite party. 'Of the American
masses. And let me do it justice in another
resPeCt. If it rallied to strike down old .
wrongs and leaped . over. forms and law
to reach every hated . abject to be op
posed and destroyed, It was always the
first to enlighten aid educate the
people, the first to advocate every great
improvement, and the 'first to curb
and to crush every party that stood
in the way of .the most thorough
liberty. Even Democratic, epposition to a
protective tariff ' had- its root in hostility
to slavery, or rather to restrictive laws.
It was my old belief, that to be free trade
- was to help not to Inirt the - workingman of
the North. Follow the
. real Democracy of
. the past It had a settled ; resolute, and ex
acting creed. It favored the repeal of the
I corrupt Castlereagh union between Eng-,
land and Ireland, and answered O'Connell
in hie eager demands for sympathy and sup.
port.- It favored Don's "revolution in
Rhode Island, in violation of ' the old
charter of .Charles 1.., to the infinite horror
of such dilettanti reactionists as, W. B. Heed
and. George,M. -Wharton, of Philadelphia ;
and went so far as to endorse that revolution
in a National Democratic Convention. It op
posed the whole sumptuary policy, and threw
its terrific force against the Maine Liquor law,
frightening the sensibilities and the pieties
of the .time. It resisted the Native Ame
ricans 'in 1844, and went :into honorable
Minority ten years later for its righteous
antagonism to that short-lived concern called.
Know-nothingism. This is the' record of
the old Democratic party. Well may the
youthful student of histOry ask, What has
changed it? 'Why has it ceased to be the
fearless and unquestioning dictator of po
licies and of creeds ? Why does' it hold
back now? Has the olden fire died ovr Is
the Democracy afraid of Reform—pale be
fore Progress—and too weak to make pre
cedents when it fails to find any ? Is the
great party—that - justified' and joyed over
Jackson when he defied Judge Hall before
the battle of New Orleans-that honored
Buchanan,BoulO, and Mason, when, with
out law, local or general, national or interna
tional, only the law of ex necessitate, they pro
posed first to buy, and failing in this, to take
Cuba from Spain—is it stone dead ? These
are questions.which the -student of history,
the young Democrat seeking foL truth and
knowledge, mill ask of his own heart and
his' own friends. Shall he be told, in reply,
that all the noble record of the Democracy
is forfeited cold forgotten, because slavery has
taken up arms against freedom ?—that the
memory of everything glorious and progres
sive of other days perished the moment the
insolent foes of all right, religion, law, and
-order, - took up arms against the only free
Government in the world?
COLORED MEN IN THE NAVY.—It is esti
mated that there are over five thousand
colored men in the navy. Within the last
eight or ten, months, they have been admit
ted -as seamen, ordinary seamen and lands
men. , Formerly they were chiefly occupied
in the ward-rooms and in the after-guard.
Not one of them, however, holds a position
as petty officer inthe service, although many
of them are coxswains for boats. Admiral
Paulding's, barge at the Brooklyn Navy
Yard, it is not generally known, has a crew
of ten stalwart negroes.
Tan sympathizing newspapers seem to
be greatly exercised by the money made by
contractors under the Administration of Mr.
lamotifst. We think a fair inquiry would
show that most of these contractors are Cop
perhead politicians, who are using their pro
fits to destroy the power that feeds and fat
tens them.
Is rr NOT soniewhat instructive and sig
nificant, that up to this period no German
patriot has spoken in favor of WOODWARD ?
Why is this ? Is it because all the Ger
mans " fight mit Sigel ?"
Wails hosts ,of Democrats are coming
over to the Union , cause, we hear of no Re
publicans who have deserted it. This is a
fact that speaks volumes.
IT must not be forgotten that Justice
WOODWARD is running upon the Vallandig
ham platform in Pennsylvania, the conven
tion that put him in nomination having "en
`dorsed VALLANDIGICAM. JOIEN SHERMAN,
of Ohio, in a late speech, said of Vamax-

The Rebellion in St. Domingo not Snp-
Nnw Tons, Oct. 2,—The steamship Corsica, from
Havana, via Nassau, has arrived here.
From-Havana we learn that the rebellion in St.
Domingo is not suppressed. Spanish troops were
marching on Le Vego, where the rebels were
strongly fortified. Additional soldiers were also
being sent from various parts of Cuba to assist in
quelling the rebellion. Various skirmishes had
taken place, in which it was reported the rebels had
becn-defeated.
The English steamer Union, a suspicious-looking
craft, had arrived at Havana. It was reported that
she was from St. John, - N.-8., via Nassau.
Nothing had been heard of the missing Spanish
.
steamier Mexico, but It was hoped, as she had three
boats, that her passengers had been' picked up by
some passing vessel.
The news from . Nassau, by the Corsica, is
unim

Tex LAST oar
of the State Agricultural Exhibition was ushered in
by clouds, and ushered out by storms. Both its entry
and its exit were anything but satisfaotory. The
ears were not nearly so crowded as they might have
been, and were the day before. The beginning of
•e day seemed to augur clear weather, but gave
aso one or two slight intimations of foul. As
upon former occasions, the oars and omnibuses were
crammed, the only difference being- that they were
not 'so much so. At the various tables where dinner
was prepared gentlemen, overcome by the fatigue of
the journey, were to be seen reclining, with heads
and necks at right angles, and bodies forming
obtuse.angled triangles. The swallow. tail flag sig
nals allot iledOve are afraid, but a small tithe of the
information which they were intended to convey to
anxious passengers: The 'milkmen at the station,
twisting their milk cans aboutin a very prestidlgita
tolial manner, were suggestive of country sights and
sounds. Not the least interesting feature on the
way up, was an, animated donversation (an instance
of private opinion publicly expressed) between two
gentlemen, who enjoyed the mutual privilege of
holding different views of the same subject. One
elderly gentleman, who represented himself as being
the representative of an old Revolutionary faintly,
and a pillar of the Union, in the same breath ex
pressed a decided bias on the side of Mr. Justice
Woodward., His antagonist very efficiently repre
sented to him that if he and his party had taken as
much pains to crush the rebellion as they did to crush
the dovernment, the eons of Secessionism would
long ago have been made futile, The elderly gen
tleman was of the opinion that the keeping up of
the .rebelliori furnished an acceptable revenue to
certain parties whom he considerately forbore
mentioning, and contemplated, with unmitigated
horror, a suggestion from his successful rival to
peruse an unanswerable doctrine from The Press.
This intercourae., however, partly amusing and par
tially painful, was put an end to by the arrival of
fresh Norristown( B. The wheels of oar and locomo
tive quickly put a stop to argument, and only al
lowed the amicable intercourse which half the time
is half understood and half guessed at.
YRSTERDAVI3 PROGRAM_ RE
was followed out to its full extent. The programme
included the •
1. Grand cavalcade, at-ten o'clock A.M.
2. The double fancy-trotting homes, class NO. 12,

And also, at half past four o'clock, the payment

first heat in 2.46, easy ; the second heat was' a dead
heat in 241%; the "Keystone" won the third
heat in 2.92; and "May Queen" won the fourth heat
in 2 43. The enthusiasm was intense, especially in
respect to Col. Pdatthews' matched horses.
THE ANNOUNCEMENT OP PREMIUMS
was necessarily delayed, the committees being
anxious to do fun juttice to all parties. The hour

THE NUMBER. OF VISITORS -
was not near so large as was present on Thursday,
and as was anticipated would be present yes
terday. Probably not more than fifteen thou
eami visited the grounds. 130th the journey to
the Fair, and the journey from it, were, there
fore, less unpleasant, in the way of over crowding,
than on previous occasions.- To pack between
twelve and fifteen hundred people into a dozen old
cars is by. no means condueive to their safety and
comfort, especiatly when trestle-work hes to be
traversed, and when the perfume which Rite the
cars does not breathe through the “- m'sts of ala
baster lamps." The interestinghets of yesterday's
programme was crowned by a most agreeable de
neuement. The - sky was 80 happy that the people
at the fair enjoyed themselves so much that it shed
fetus (teals of joy) upon the . oecasien. The item
-deserves a pluvial paragraph. The rain commenced
at about four o'clock, and increased in intensity
until the time the train started. hien, women. and
children tushed frantically into the main building,
into the largo public abed, into the president's,
secretary's, treasurer's, and marshals' offices, and
cooped themselves together under trees, umbrellas,
and the race-course stalls: They committed assault
and battery on innocent omnibuses, and waylaid
wagons laden with patent mowere and remora,
One mournful group under a Spreading willoc#i in
stated upon the stoppage of a Coneetoga wagon,
already overloaded with three men and six stove
pipes, and one unfortunate reporter hailed a dray
chock full of some patent invention, ensconced him
self somewhere among the red painted iron handi
craft, paid the driver ten cents (via postage stamp)
to (hive him to the station as soon as 'possible, in
order to obtain standing room on the last train, and
had his pants torn into the bargain. It is but just
to add that the excitement of the rain was preceded
by the excitement of a fight, which the marshals
and police attended, but which we didn't.. In and
out and to and from the fair there was plenty of
teem for
I=l
sketches. There were people at table who eat
as though their very existence depended upon it;
signs with periods painted square in one place, and
round in another, though it cannot be said that
such sentences were rounded periods; there was a
gentleman in a back car who eat ground-nuts to
himself with an abstracted air, as though he
was holding communion with them. There was also
the usual cry of-" Row are you, six o'clock tray-
ain 7" "Hallo, Joe! you going to hang oat" There
were men and women staring at each other blindly,
like rabbits with no nuts to crack, and there were
soldier boys seeking seats and finding none. The
railroad lines overlapped each other like brained
whalebones, and umbrellas became as übiquitous as
was possible at such short notice. Experienced sol
diers, from the tops of omnibuses, surveyed the
fashionable fugitive, drenched almost to the skin,
and shouted, " Ow•oo °woo! the rain, the rain i"
What the precise meaning of this vowel exclama
tion may be is a hard matter for a mere connoisaieur
of language to determine ; but it is certain that it
occasioned the moat exquisite satisfaction to the
soldiers, and was a keen source of annoyance to the
fashionable fugitive,
Yesterday was the fourth and last day of the
eleventh annual exhibition of the State Agricultu
ral Society. Though, as a whole, it cannot befavora
.bly compared with some former State faire,, yet the
exhibition was creditable and interesting. The
numbers which attended bear witness to this. The
different departments were probably as full and di
versified as should have been expected, and •no
noteworthy exception occurred to mar for one mo
ment the unanimity which prevailed.

opinion as to the merits of the candidates for Go
vernor in Pennsylvania, and the wishes of the regi
ment in the matter. [Cheers.] Capt,J. W. Crosby,
Company' G, was called upon to preside. Captain
Louis Redenbaugh, Company B, and. Captain Wm.
H. Robinson, Company 0, to act as vice presidents
Lieut. Samuel W. Means, Company:E, A.R. Q. M.,
and Lieut. Richard R Lippincott, Company I, A.
A., to act as secretaries. Capt. Crosby, upon taking
the chair, said that he did not look upon this as a
political meeting. We could not vote, and we were
about to instruct our friends what to do in this mat
ter, and to express:our firm conviction that Governor
Curtin was the friend of the cause, andlhe soldier's
friend. On motion, a committee was appointed to
report resolutions. The committee - having retired,
Captain Crosby desired the members of the meeting
to listen attentively to the reading of the resolu
tions when presented, anti not to assent to the pas
sage of any of which they did not approve, as nothing
was to be reported but the genuine sentiment of the
meeting. Assistant Surgeon John W. Riddle being
- called upon, said he was no speaker, but would say
how he felt. Three years ago he had opposed- Go
vernor Curtin, but would heartily - support hint noir'.
[Cheers.]
The following resolutions were then read, and
ad opted without one dissenting voice:
Whereas, It is our opinion that none can have a more
lively interest in the issues of the rola - Mal contest now
Pending in the State of Pennsylvania. than her sons now
lathe held contending for the vindication of the offended
majesty of onrcemnion country: Therefore.
Bey:aped, That although we deem it incompatible
wnh the most v.tal Interests of our country that politi
cal opinion, as such, should in any way guide the opera
tions of our- great armies in the Held; 'yet, our vocation
as soldiers has neither deprived tie of our interest is the
selection of these who shall represent and care for ns in
the executive and legislative chambeis of our State, nor
of our light to be heard in this behalf.
. _ . .
Res .t /tad, That the only party lines recognized by ne
are.those unmistakably-drawn between honorable. de
voted, and unconditional- loyalty to cur Government,
and that cowardly, contemptible sympathy with rebel.
lion which has given, and still continues to give, so
n,uch substantial aid ano comfort to a malignant and
relentless enemy, with Whom we can make no terms but
those of submission or extermination; that in the at
ismpt to divide the sentiment of the People upon any
other issue, we reCognize the spirit of him who should,
opportunity offer, and interest demand. would place
the knife at the throat of her who loves him.
Resolved;- That we recognize the Administration now
in power / e the Government, and its such entitled to the
earnest and cordial support of scary loyal man; that the
paltry argument. by wnich those who call themselves
Dtmocratdendeavor to [distinguish between the loyalty
to the. Administration and loyalty to the Goverame , t,
is
a specious sophism too shallow to be worthy of the Con
sideration of any sane mind.
-Resolved; That-in Andrew G Curtin we recognize
one who has nevirfaltered in his self-sacrificing devo
tion to, the cause for which we, as soldiers, are contend
ing; that as Pennsylvania Volunteers we do and, shall
ever regard him with flied affection that inasmuch as
uncontrollable circumstances prevent our voices from
being heard at the ballot-hox, as they would oe in un
mistakable tones, the anxiety with which he has ever.
watched over, and the energy with which he has ever
advanced our comforts and interests as soldiers, make it
the imperative duty of our friends at home,
_without re
gard to distinction of party, to labor and ' achieve his
election to the executive chair of our flats; that we aro
unwilling that our interests, as Pennsylvanian soldiers,
should .be, committed- to the.keeping of any man,
and especially to one who does not profess to be Inc friend
of the soldier and his came.
Resolmd, That copies of these resolutions be forward
ed for publication to the Pittsburg Chronicle, Deslxetch,
Gazette, and Commercial; to the Philadelphia Pram',
Inquirer, and Sunday Dispatch; to the Record of:the
Times. of Wilkesharre, Pennsylvania; to thoAmerzcan
Republican and Village _Record, of West Chester,

Three cheers for the resolutions and three for Go
vernor Curtin. Colonel Smith being called upon,
said• that he was a firm friend of Governor Curtin,
and< that the regiment had sent a message to their
friends at home, which would leave them no room
to doubt what soldiers wished in the matter. These
resolutions would encourage patziots and undeceive
those croakere wbo professed to; believe that there

were vociferously applauded throughout, and three
cheers given for the 'speaker 1 0 their conclushM.

THE SSORNTAILY OF STATEI ON TruAL.--0a
Tuesday a case came before one of the State courts
in New York city, entitled George W. Jones vs.
William H. Seward, Secretary of State. Mr.
Jones, formerly United Consul at Bogota, was ar
rested in December, 1861, by order of the Secretary
of State, and now brings an action for false im
prisonment. A motion was made to have all pro-
ceedings stayed, as there was a motion to have the
case removed to the Federal courts. The argument
of counsel for defendant was that the order for Mr.
Jones' an est was made by Mr. Seward
as Secretary of Slate. On the third of
March, 1863, Congress passed a law entitled
"An act relating to habeas corpus, and regulating
judicial proceedings in certain eases." The fourth
section of the act makes any order of the President,
or under his authority. made at any time during the
existenee of the present rebellion, a defence in all
courts to' any action or prosecution, civil or crimi
nal, pending, or to be commenced, for any search,
seizure, or arrest under such order. The fifth sec
tion of the act provides for the removal of alt actions
for any such arrest, &c., from any State court in
which they may be commenced to the Circuit Court
of the United States. The plaintiff's counsel sub
mitted his argument, but the case had not been con
cluded at the close of Tuesday.
CITY I 7L 1 JD(
ANOTHER MERITED COMPLIMENT TO TILE
WHEELER & WILSON SEWING MACHINII.—It has
become so general for the Wheeler & Wilson Sew-
ing Machine to take the tint awards whenever
they are brought into competition with any others
in the country, that for them to receive any less
compliment than this would be an ineulr,to the in
telligence of all who know the relative-merits of
the various sewing machines now in use. The
American Institute, which has just closed its annual
fair in the city of New York, where all the sewing _
machises in the land were represented, awarded the
highest premium to the machines in question, and
we believe a similar preference has been given it
wherever it has been publicly exhibited. The pecu
liarities of the Wheeler & Wileon inetrument consist
in their simplicity (being operated more easily than
any others extant), their perfect adaptability to all
kinds of sewing, their extraordinary durability (it
being almost impossible to get them out of repair),
and their exquisite beauty as an article of furniture.
The elegant new warehouse of the Wheeler & Wil
son Company, in this city, at No. 704 Chestnut
street, is now the leading point of attraction on our
most fashionable thoroughfare, rendered doubly so
by the lnuch-arlmired automaton lady in their west
window, who still continues to puzzle the wits of
every lady by the agility with which she operates
the machine, without a moment's intermission, front
morning till night.
A BEAUTIFUL CLASS OF 'PICTURES.—
Messrs. Wenderoth & Taylor, (formerly Broadbent
& Co-) Nos. 912, 914, and DIG Chestnutstreet, deserve
the tharke of the community—which they are also
receivirg in the way of a liberal patronage—for
having introduced one of the most interesting
classes of photographs that yet have been at,
tempted; we allude to their lands Cape views for
framing, taken from. nature, They are rapidly col
lecting ViCWS of the most striking points in the en
virons of our city, duplicates of which can be had at
their counters. They, are also executing a large
number of these views of villas and home scenes of
various hinds to private order.
A CELEBRATED ITEW CIIURN.—Mr. A.
H. Franciscus, (proprietor of the great Cotton Batt
and Wooden Ware eetabliahmeat, Nos. 513 Market,
and 610 Commerce streets,) has just introduced an
article entitled the "Pnecrux Ontrzsr,n a newly
patented article, which claims to be superior to any
other churn in the market. It can be kept Perfectly
clean and sweet without a particle of waste in but
ter, and will save its own coat in less than a year.
This ingenious affair has been on exhibition at the
State Fair during the present week, and from the
crowds of scrutinising observers with which its
operations were constantly surrounded, and the fa
vorable impression it made upon intelligent farmers
and their wives, we have reson to believe that the
“Pheenix Churn" will very soon become widely in
troduced. We.-may add, in conclusion, that one of
the best evidences of its merits being real, is found in
the fact that-Sir. Franciscus has accepted the sole
agency for its sale. Sub agents will soon be em
ployed by him in all parts of the United States.
The churn may be seen in operation at Mr. F.'s
warerooms.
