It says that ■•whatever reputation Mr. BoUa may have earned ns a stateman, has assuredly been ruin ously damaged” by his New York letter on that subject. Having thus summarily demol ished Mr. Bolt’s reputation, the States pays its respects to its cotemporaries throughout the country by declaring, with characteristic mod esty, that'“tbe amount of ignorance that has manifested itself on this subject, as expressed through the newspaper press, is positively marvelous.” It is fortunate that there is as least one lu minary in the country capable of dispelling the clouds of ignorance that obscure this subject; and fortunate are the inhabitants of the Fed eral city, in living within the radius of its light. The States gives the following oracular expo sition of the whole subject: “In Prussia every male child is born a sol dier. The King has a claim upon him for a certain number of years of military duty, which is just as valid as the claim of a Virginian to n slave child for life is valid by the Constitution of the Union. If a male child quits his realm, at whatever age, without having discharged his duty, he is cier liable for its performance, cither person ally or by a substitute, upon re-entering the realm. Xo obligations which he can take upon hina- Bulf to another country, and no protection which F'ioli country can extend to him, can impair this claim, because it is of anterior existence. For instance if a male slave of Virginia— one of Mr. Butts’ for instance—were to escape from bis owner, proceed to Prussia, there be come a subject of the Crown, and subsequently return to Virginia, is it likely that he would be icnoied to Prussia upon the demand that he is a Prussian Subject? The notion is too absurd to be entertained by a rational being. Old Virginia would surren der her existence before she would surrender him. The cases are identical. So long as the slave remained under the jurisdiction of Prussian law, or out of the confines of the United States, to long would his master be without a remedy Ibr his wrohg, and so long as the Prussian, who owes military service, remains in the United States, or within the confines of Prussia and the Germanic Confederation, so long is he se cure from the exactions of the sovereign in whose realm he was born.” This is the doctrine of Mr. Cass, as illustra ted by the Douglas organ. Upon this point, at least the Buchanan and Douglas wings of the party agree. It must be truly consoling to our adopted fellow citizens to know that this Dem ocratic Administration regards them as mere “/it7thee slaiw.” The doctrine is, that every subject of a for eign, despotism is born a slave, and that-this condiiiuji cannot be changed by anything he cm d'j for himself, or that our Government can do &r him, although it accepts his allegiance. “Xo obligations which he can take upon him- KCrlf to another country, and no protection which such country can extend to him,” can make him a free man, or even “impair the claim” which his master has to his personal services, in virtue of his having been born to slavery. — True, lie may escape from slavery if he can, and flee to this country, and here, in pursuance of our laws, go through the idle ceremony of renouncing his allegiance to his hereditary master, and being declared a citizen of this glorious llopublic. But be is only a “fugitive slave,” after all. Our Government can afford him no protection against the claim of his former master, because it recognizes that claim as “just as valid as the claim of a Virginian to a slave child for life.” In fact his condition, according to the Stales, is “identical” with that of a “runaway nigger”—that is to say, he is free just so long as be can keep out of the clutches of his former master, and no longer. If that master once gets his hand upon him, our Government cannot interfere in his behalf, notwithstanding it has accepted his allegiance and made him a citizen.— Washington Republic. The Wit or x Mischievous Belle, —The Pe tersburg}! Express gets off the following in ref erence to Ex-Senator Foote. It says: Hon. Henry Stuart Foote, late Senator in Congress from Mississippi, and afterwards a shining light in California, is attracting considerable atten tion in the South at this time. It seems he is endeavoring to look young again, and has conned a brown wig and dyed his hair and moustache. List winter the Ex-Governor was figuring about the parlors of the St. Charles Hotel in Xew Orleans, in a flowing wig of dark brown locks, and an enormous beard and mous tache of the deepest jet, which would have done honor to a grenadier of the French Impe rial Guard. As he passed the large mirrors he never failed to cast an admiring look at'bis own re flection, and not only smiled at himself, but the cause of laughter in others who beheld kim. One evening he joined a group of gen tlemen who surrounded a young and charming fielle, and soon addressed some remarks to her. She returned a lopk of quiet surprise as if she Aid not know him. “Why, Miss said ° ur venerable chameleon, “you don't seem to know me.” “Ob, yes,” said she, apologetically, “there is something quite familiar to me in your voice, but really, 1 can't recall your name.” name, Miss ,is Foote.” “Ah 1 now I nnderderstard it..

A Hew Flank. At a time when the sham Democratic press of the country is trying to saddle the responsi bility of some measure of Massachusetts State politics which affects the rights of the natural ized citizens of that State upon the Republicans of the whole country, it is interesting to read the letter of Mr. Lewis Cass, enunciating as it does, a new doctrine with regard to the rights acquired by citizens not born within the limits of the United States. It is in vain that Mr. Caleb Cushing and Senator Pugh come to the rescue of the venerable Secretary of State, and proffer their logic and rhetoric to explain that which needs uo explanation. The doctrine re mains as written by Mr. Cass, that no native of the old world can have the absolute right of ex patriation ; and as a corrollary deducible there from, that no matter how long a native of Prus sia, Franco or any other country may have been a naturalized citizen of this country —no mat ter how long be may have contributed to sup port and been protected by this government— he still owes military service to the country from which he is a self-made exile, and this government will not protect him against the claims of his former lord and sovereign. Such is the Democratic doctrine of to-day in contrast with the doctrine enunciated by Mr. Marcy in the case of Martin Kosta, that if a foreigner bad even declared his intention to Become a ci tizen of the United States, that act was sufficient to entitle him to the protection of this govern ment, no matter where he went. When we remember that one of the causes of lBl2 was the impressment into the British American seamen under the mediaeval doctrine of perpetual allegiance, we are surprised that Mr. Cass and with him .the Democratic party, that make all their capi tal with the more ignorant Irish by their pro fessed hatred of England, should adopt this En glish doctrine and incorporate it into the Dem ocratic creed. The phrase “progressive Democ racy” is frequently used by the stump orators of that stripe when addressing the people whoso votes may happen to be needed at the time, without much reference to its meaning. Wc have often wondered wherein was the progress which the phrase seems to imply, but every day helps to unriddle the mystery. On all questions which affect in any way the rights of man, white or black, that party progresses—after the manner of tbe crab. Here was a splendid op portunity for the leaders of the Democracy to have gotten up a furor over the rights of white men--foreigners whom they profess to love so much—but instead of that we have given to us some old-time ideas of international law, and tbe rights of a nation to the service of thoso born on her soil, whether they live on that soil or not. We give in another part of this paper, an ar ticle from the Washington Republic which il lustrates, we fear but too' clearly, the spirit of the Democratic press in regard to this doctrine. From this it may be seen that adopted citizens are regarded by this administration in the same light as fugitive slaves , a fact which may tend to open the eyes of some who adhere to the De mocracy, because they are intoxicated with the name. What reason do the Democratic leaders give for this new doctrine with regard to the rights of foreign-born citizens? The same reason which they always have given when any infa mous measure was to be adopted by the party, namely, that it has always been the policy of the government. Indeed some of the echoes of the Washington organ, resort to the smallest kind of logical shuffling to gull their readers with, as for instance the Patriot and Union of Harrisburg, which comes to the such patriotic twaddle as this : “Tbe.assumption that every man owes some thing to the mother who bore him, and the soil upon which he was born* is recognized by mu nicipal and international law. To disregard this recognized fact would be to go counter to the uniform practice of this country, to uniform international law, and would involve us in war with all Christendom, It would be in total dis regard of Washington and our political fathers, who advised us to avoid all entangling alliances or interference with foreign powers, for it would make us a nation of propagandists, who are de termined upon carrying our ideas of domestic government by force of arms, into every coun try with which we have relations. For this we are not prepared, nor are we able to compel oth er countries to adopt our views as to the allegi ance which citizens respectively owe to the land of their birth and the land of their adoption.” It will be seen that such catch-phrases as “entangling alliances,” the “early fathers” and so forth, are always on hand to be used on oc casion* like this, but how these fine phrases WELLSBORO, TIOGA COUNTY, PA., THURSDAY MORNING. JULY 14, 1859. can be made to solve the great question of righjts, is more than anybody but Democratic politicians can tell. But in order to sliow that this new doctrine of modern Democracy is in direct op position to the practice of the government here tofore, we copy a short chapter of history from the X. Y. Express: | “Francis Allibcrt, a native of ihe Department de Var, in the, South of France, left there during the drawing of the conscription in 1839, and was actually drawn as a conscript, and was therefore an cckapc de la conscription, lie arrived at New Orleans, made the usual application for citizenship, and was duly natu ralized in 1845. lie was successful in business in Louisiana, and in July, 1852, nfterjan absence of near ly fourteen years he returned to visit his family in his native village; and under the vigilant police in France he was arrested in twenty-four hours after his return. He immediately wiotc to Mr, ilodgo, the nearest American consul. The latter, that he might better at tend to the case, immediately requested that Mr. Al libert might bo brought to Marseilles, which request was promptly acceded to by the General-in-Chief com. mauding the military division. Hie was there brought before the Tribunal de Guerre As au Insonmie, and condemned. Mr. Allibert was willing to pay four thousand francs for a substitute, bi t Mr. Hodge would not allow him even to make the iffor, but obtained a re-hearing of his c.iao, appeared 1 1 person before tbo Tribunal dc Guerre, and pleaded tho case; akd after two trials and a detention of six months Ac teas acA uoiclcdged an American citizen', and order* enjuc from the d/ in inter of IVW at Paris, dbeetiug his release. — Mr. Hodge gave him u passport, vliich was vised by the police, and with which he remained some weeks with his family, tiaveled throng i Franco, and em barked at Havre on his return to the United States. “The correspondence nu file in the Department of State gives the full dutuiU of the :ase. find Mr. Kver- Secretary of Stale under Mr. Fillmore, o ( n the od ISa'J, (the last day* lie was in office.) wrote a complimentary letter to r. Hodge, lu which he says. ‘•‘The Department was gratifii Allibert, whose arrest and intprUf mis, although a naturalized citizen (. as mentioned in your communion leased. This is undoubtedly due elded stand maintained throughoi versy in your official corresponds ities on the subject. “It is much to bo desired that fA a precedent, as yon intimate, and i ralized citizens t >J the United Stnt\ icithnuc dunjcr of urrrtt for mili< event, a hurtful source of irritu feeling will be ” We ask our readers to remember that this case occurred while the present acknowledged chief of the American party was President of the United States, and we aslt the attention of adopted citizens particularly to the fact, that the present administration, n its empty professions of regard for the oppressed foreigners who seek homes on our shores, is nevertheless willing to ignore an important pre cedent, in point of fact, altogether similar to that of Le Clerk to whom G m. Cass addresses his letter. i The whole case may be staged in a few words. The true doctrine is, that if !a man be natural ized ho is no lunger a foreigner in any sense of the word. The nature of \merican institu tions precludes the possibility of having for eign citizens. True, the accident of birth re mains, but that is all. Herein is the whole case. i Wc ought not to be surprised at this denial by the Democrats of the inherent right of all men to self-expatriation. It is not surprising that a party which makes war on free men be cause of the accident of col ir—as the Demo cratic party did in Maryland % few weeks ago— should make war on free men because of the accident of birth. Practically the principle involved is the same. American Democracy— we use the term in its highest sense—should teach that self-expatriation is a natural instead of an acquired right, and that, eternal allegi ance is behind the spirit of ttie age. But Dem ocracy as interpreted by the modern fathers takes queer flights, and this is certainly one of them. Wo suggest that the new doctrine be made one of the planks of the Charleston Platform. Mr. Douglas’s Position. Every reflecting man knows, that our Amer ican system of Conventions and Caucuses lias degenerated into mere machinery, by which intriguing politicians impose upon the country incompetent candidates for offices of all grades, from President down to pound-master. We therefore laud the recent Douglas, not for the politici pounds, but for the scutin pendenco that dictated and a declaration of war agains assumed infallibility of par is a proclamation, by a disi leader and presumptive can dency, to an assemblage w! tbority of determining hi terms he will and will not t onsent to bo named by them for that office. If it be regarded as an attempt to dictate to a N ttional Convention, our response is. that it is high time somebody, with the prestige and pltck of Mr. Douglas, taught our National Convention Mongers, that principles can be enunciated, and leaders desig nated, by others, quite as properly ns by them. They have long enough dictated both creeds and candidates to the people, prescribing, with Procrustean precision, for whom they shall vote, and what doctrines that tote shall represent. We are glad to find that one distinguished party chief has the courage to use plain lan guage to the-three or four hundred political hucksters, who, by and by, will be selected at hap-hazard or by corrupt appliances to go to Charleston, and there determine, by thimblo rigging trickery, the destiny of one of the great parties of the country, and perhaps of the country itself, for the coming four years. Our Caucus and Convention system, when operating on a national theatre, is almost-as baias a constitutional monarchy, with its acci dents of birth. The responsible ministers of the crown can be driver pleasure of the people, burg or a Baltimore Conv all the leading statesmen denly-discovers the peer: place and power of some Polk, or'Pierce, and the party, with a wholesome fear of excommunica tion and lose of pottage, ratify the discovery with their votes, no subsequent disapprobation of the people can rid the nation of the infliction. Patronage and pay are assured unto the incu bus, however grievous to be borne, for four years. This system renders politics and office-hold ing such vulgar pursuits and occupations, that the great body of first-class men of all pro fessions and callings will have nothing to do with them. With honorable exceptions, and we are happy to say there are many such, it crowds Congress after Congress with obscurity and mediocrity, and fills our State Legislatures and Executive departments with men who were never heard of before they entered their halls, and arc utterly forgotten as soon as they leave them. And so it is with all the descending grades of office till they reach the lowest place in the gift of the smallest political municipality in the land. And, not content with dictating candidates, and sentencing to the party guillotine those who repudiate the dictators and their nominees, these irresponsible conclaves prescribe the creed of the party in respect to all questions past, pending, and prospective. A mass of undi gested verbiage, called a “platform,” usually presented to the Convention just as every mem ber is rushing for the door or the depot, and which few understand and all soon forget, be comes, henceforth, by virtue of such action, the irrevocable creed of the party to which every orator, editor and candidate, in the cxei tingcanvass that follows, is required to conform in thought, word and deed. Everybody knows that creeds thus originating have no effect in i':J to learn that M. inment as an £n*ou the United States, .tions, hns been re to the ilnu and de nt the long contro qce with the author- producing identity of sentiment in the party; win no totes to its candidates, while they repel many; and usually fall within the scope of the criticism that "Webster, with more wit than wisdom, bestowed upon the Buffalo platform, via: “That all which it contained that was true “ was not original, and all that was original “ was not truel” t* case may serve as that hereafter unfit* its may visit France lary service. Iu this lion ami unfriendly The period may come when the people will select their candidates and adopt their creeds without the interposition of a self-elected Con vention or Caucus. In the meantime, the re cent letter of Mr. Douglas points in the right direction. — Xew York Tribune. Last Friday evening a party of four gentle men viz, Prof. Wise, the celebrated Aeronaut, Prof. La Mountain, Mr. Wiu. Zlyde of the• St. Louis Republican and another person left St. Louis in the great balloon on a trial trip to the Atlantic coast. This balloon was built at Troy recently for the purpose of crossing the ocean to Europe, and this trip was to test its capacity. The balloon came down Saturday afternoon in St. Lawrence Co. in the State of New York, a distance of 1200 miles from the starting point, having made the trip in twenty hours. The Buffalo Express derives the following informa tion from Mr. Hyde ong of the party. ‘•They left St. Louis at 7:20 P. M. Friday. They immediately arosq to an altitude of about two miles which was the highest point gained daring the trip. Hero they found the easterly current expected and sailed along at the rate of about a mile per minute. The air was in tensely cold and several extra garments failed to prevent a constant shivering among them. It became at laat insufferable, and Prof. Wise, thinking to find the same current nearer the earth, allowed the balloon to descend a few hundred feet. Hero they were struck with a current running north which, before they could again ascend, carried them several degrees to the northward, thus passing north of Buffalo, when they intended passing this point much farther south. At about 2 o’clock Saturday af ternoon they were over Lake Ontario, when Prof. Wise experimented in the different cur rents in order to gain information.for his pro jected Atlantic trip. This brought them in contact with the gale which prevailed over this portion of the country, and ere they could rise above it, the balloon boat struck the water and was dashed into a thousand pieces, the voya gers being in the car above. Everything, coats, boots, provision and hooks were thrown over board in order to lighten the balloon, and it soon rose about fifty feet and passed on to the land in St. Lawrence Co. Here they were met by a dense forest, and the grappling irons (very large, weighing ten pounds) attached to ropes fifty feet in length were thrown out. The bal loon at that time was making two miles per minute, and the irons seized large limbs of trees, tearing thcm-,from the trunk, and giving the track they mipie the appearance of one caused by a whirlwind. At times the car up set, and the balloonists clung to the ropes for safety. At 4P.M. on Saturday the car caught in a high tree, and the force of the wind swung the balloon around the branches, tearing it into shreds. The passengers were thro.wn out on the ground near a small village, from whence Mr. Hyde came to this city on his return to St. Louis, and the rest of the party went to Albany. i letter of Senator id principles it pre sent of wanly inde ] pervades it.

FROM THE PEOPLE. For tlio Agitator. Mount Vernon. To the People of Tioga County ; Chosen as Lady Manager of the Mount Vernon Ladies Association of the Union, for Tioga Co. I ven ture to appeal direetiy to the warm hearted and patriotic people of our comparatively new Go. for that assistance which, from my success thus far, I'am justified in saying, need only be so licited to obtain. Surely, we will not be dila tory in lending our time, talents and purses to promote so patriotic and noble a cause. We will not allow others to carry off the palm, while we stand idle spectators gazing as if we did not like them to enjoy the full benefit of that “inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pur suit of happiness,” which was never more exten sively acknowledged than at the present time. Could wo have witnessed the glorious triumph of our Washington in the full flush of his vic tory and see him self-possessed and calm while thousands looked to him with feelings akin to idolatry, then might we have realized the worth, the nobility, the perfection of such a character; but although that day and its hen: has past away, still dear to every true Amer ican is the name of Washington and we can “honor him as never man was honored before” by erecting to his memory a monument, not of marble of costly structure but a far more magnificent one —by purchasing his homestead and tomb. “It is the nature of man to give utterance to his profound attachments. And Washington is in the hearts of the American people. They love him. They love the ground on which ho stood, the streams by which he walked, the ■ l skies on which he looked. They gather, the fragments of his correspondence, the words which tradition has handed down. They love the questions which he contemplated and dis cussed, the improvements which he planned, the hills and vales on which he ever cast his eye. But tongue can never tell how much they prize the trees he planted with his own hand, the lowliest shrub he ever watered, the floweret which bloomed beneath his smile at early morn, the vine which clustered round his weary head at evening tide. And if these can be earned by toil or bought by the sweat of brow or weight of gold, (and for such as these how paltry a sum is $200,000,) —if with them 1 can also be obtained whatever remains of that grand form which was ‘first in peace and first in war/ men will have these fur their own, and cleave to them. There is ever a yearning in the soul for something to remind it of the truly illustri ous dead, especially when their virtues stand well in the foreground of eternity.” Xhejabjectof the Mount Vernon Association although familiar to every child, it may be proper to state and in doing we know of nothing more perfect in simplicity yet eloquent in language than wo find in the Appeal to the people of Pennsylvania by our worthy Vice Re - gent, Miss Lily L. Macalesder, viz.; “The object of the Mount Vernon Associa tion is to obtain by- voluntiry contributions a sum necessary to purchase aiid hold forever two hundred acres of the Mount Vernon estate, in cluding the mansion where Washington dwelt and died, his tomb, the garden and grounds around them, and the landing at the Potoiqac by which they are approached. To collect this sum Vico Regents have been appointed in differ ent States, with Lady Managers, associated committees of ladies, and, advising committees of gentlemen in the various counties, cities and principal towns. Every person by whom $l,OO is paid toward this fund becomes thereby a per manent member of the Association, and is in scribed as such in a Record which will be pre served at Mount Vernon.” We sometimes meet this objection, viz, that ‘•the price is ioo much," —perhaps it is too much for a place upon which to raise corn ana pota toes —too much as a price for a farm, but who so dead to all the finer feelings of our nature as to put his hands in his pockets and coldly calculate the price of Washington's home—of his decaying bones ? Tho price of a place like Mount Vernon it is impossible to calculate and parsimonious to say the least, must be the heart that stoops to raise after a little thought such an objection. Give freely, give liberally and feel that you are better men and women’ for so doing. Enter heart and band into the matter and no doubt you will feel the warm blood flow more abun dantly, and your own spirits raised by the act. And let us “faint not then in our endeavors. It may be but elevating and purifying toils.— False men cannot barm us, and the thoughtful and brave will be on our side. The young men will there. The patriots will be there. The wise will be there. The believers in the suffi ciency of God’s word as a revolution will be there. The good will be there. The men and officers of the United States army and navy will be there. The strong-handed and bold hearted of eiery honest calling will be there. The statesmen that are such, the humble min isters of Jesus, and all true lovers of our coun try will be at our side to promote and maintain our efforts/' It is sometimes asked bow much has been contributed? It is impossible to give the exact amount, as every day adds more and more, but upon the Ist of June there had been paid into the Treasury SIoT.OOO —a sum which should encourage all persons to add their dollar that the remaining §43,000 be speedily raised.
