The notorious “Colonel” Hugh Forhes. em ployed end pensioned by the Black Republi eana to drill the Kansas troops, and afterwards eo-conspiratorwirh John Brown, was recently appointed by Garibaldi to the command of Mez zaro, Sicily. He has since been dismissed. It was not long, however, before Garibaldi dis covered his error. Forbes no sooner entered "upon his duties than the unsoundness of his mind was visible to everybody. Extreme 'in his views, irrascible in his temper, self-willed and obstinate, he soon made himself ofl'vnsive to all, There was not. a measure proposed aboutwhieh he did not. disagree with his col leagues, the officers of the army, and especially with the civil authorities, which held him in utter ehhorrence. Itwas soon evident to all that Forbes was an impediment to all progress, and that. with him order and peace would never prevail in the eity of Mezzaro. In consequence, his recall was demnnded by both the civil and military authoritzes of the city, and obtained. If Lincoln should be elected, he will probably make his way hither and demand a post, in the “ irrepressible conflict.” The Next Congress. Ourlreaders will remembrr how much diffi culty the Republicans had in electing a Speaker gigging-£28115? they succeeded}; el‘ecting Govt P-nnington, of New Jersey, one of the moat. moderate of their Stripe, by a bare ma. jority. Well, according to the amount) 8 which have reached us of the recent electi us. two Democratic members have been gained in Penn sylvania and three in Ohio; total five, 'which. being deducted from the Republican side and added 'to the Democratic, will make a difi'er once of ten votes against. the Republicans, 5! compared with the present Congress- The Dom oarats have lost. no member as yet. They might have gained three more in Pennsylvania, viz., in the 2d, 36 and 4th Congressional districxs, if only the Democrats and Bell men had co operated. But they chose to run separate can didates, and so were both defeated. The State of New York, which has .hut five members in the presentCongt-eea, including Clark, but not including Ruskin and Reynolds, may easily gain half a. dozen conservative members, if only the conservative men will unite on Congress men, as they have on the electoral ticket.— Thia they must. not. fail to do. We are glad to see that the National Democratic Volunteers (Breckinrijge) are moving in this direction. Pennsylvania—Foruey Arraigning the Administration.

Wilful Misrepresentation. In a report of a speech recently made by Mr. Douglas. at Indianapolis, we find the fol lowing statement: “I tally/1m that ta-dgy‘tfie whole power 0 Mn. Bl cunux’s Adminiuranm‘ 1.: being wielded or Linbaln in every free State qf thg Union. (hders have gunefrgnn Washington to Inyhana qua Ohio, the same us went“ to Maine, to have thcfedegai (mice-ladders mate the Repub licrm ticket at the appruachmg State elections ; and the reason they do not rum. separate State ticket at the same time-they run a separate presidential ticket is that they mtend to vote directly for the Lincoln can didates for State officers.” We take it for granted that the reportis cor rect, and that Mr. Douglas really used the above language. To say that, the assertion is a gross misrepresentation, entirely destitute of a. shadow of foundation, is the mild'eet lan guage that can be employed in regard to it. We know. and can, therefore, speak positively, that no instructions were given by the Admin istration, either directly or indirectly, secretly or openly, to any federal ofiicer, in Maine or anywhere else, as to how he should vote; and we also learn, from reliable authority, that the federal officers in Maine both voted and used their influence for Mr. Smart, the defeated candidate for Governor. We know that such was the opinion of Mr. Smart himself, and that he so stated. in a. public speech subsequent to his defeat. We, therefore, authoritatively and unequiv ocally'pronounce the above statement of Mr. Douglas 10 he untrue, and made with a full knowledge of its untruth. Desperate as his cause really is, forlorn as is his situation, hopeless as is his political prospect, and undignified as is his course, we Were not prepared to find him descend to wil ful misrepresentation and calumn'y, in his de sire to palliote his own guilt, or to gratify his abortive malice. He may be very anxious to shift from his own shoulders the weight of responsibility far Ihe Republican succeascs at. the North, which. muSI crush him. but he cannot succeed in pla cing the smallest portion of it on the shoulders of the Administration, or the gallant, true Democrats who are fig..ting for Bancxmmnon and LAKE“. WE DEFY MR. DOUGLAS T 0 PROVE ms Wonns.—-€onstilution. The Irrepresseble Conflict. In all the speeches which Senator Seward has made during his rear-Ht campaign tour, he has taken hold, radical Black Republican ground; reasserting, in the most unhesitating manner, the irrepressible conflict doctrine.— Mr. Seward understands his position as an authoritative expounder of the principles of his party, and he evidently feels inclined to use that position to commit Mr. Lincoln and his folluwers unreacrvedly to the doctrine of the “higher law.” No Black Republican will venture to deny that Mr. Seward has a. right. to speak for the party for which he has done l 0 much ; therefore we are justified in saying that. the following extract from his speech at Cleveland, Ohio.represents fairly the sentiment. of the Black Republicans: ‘~ Society on hove but two forms by which the indi vidunl can defend himself from oppression. One is thst which puts the musket into his hand and tells himnt the last resort todennd himself and his liberty. Theother is that which puts into his hand the ballot, and tells him in every exigency to defend his rights with the bal lot. Ido maintain that in founding I. new State we have the perfect liberty'ns well as the perfect right to estab‘ish a government which shsll secure every man in hia~ rights; or. rather, Ido say you must put into every man’s hand~notinto the hands of one—the ballot; or p tinto every man’s hand, and not into the hands of a. few the bullet. so that every man shall be equal before the luv in his power as a. citizen. All men shall have, flatbentm n: num:,‘lL-—~‘--“' “W "' "”‘" ' This means, if it. means anything—and we will not, of course, accuse the Senator of em ploying phrases “full of sound and fury, sig nifying nothing”—thnt negroes, Indians, and others, in this country. who are deprived of the ballot, have 3 right. to use the musket. This is the only logical deduction from this argument of Seward’e. R 9.51 men are entitled to either the ballot or musket, those who are deprived of the former must, as a natural consequence. have the right' of revolution. Are the con servative men of the Union prepared for the terrible consequences which must. ensue if this false assumption of Mn. Seward and the repub licans, that the negroes are entitled to white men’s rights, is once admitted ?-- Washington Constitution. The True Doctrine. Thus spanks thatdistiuguished patriot, James W} Gerar !, Esq., of New York, to his old Whig friends who we leaning toward Lineolnism. “ It. is vain tor the respectable and conser vative portion of that, party to assert that. their policy is to prevent the spread of slaVery into the Territories now free; that; may be their new, and they may sincerely think so, but“) at. is not. the “min to the policy of their leaders (whose dupes they are) if their own acts and speeches are to be credited. The secret circu— lation of Helper’s book in the Southern States was not neeessary to keep slavery out. of the Territories; a'conflict between the free labor 0! the North and the slave labor of the Son! , which they say must be so severe (irrepre?ib‘le) that one party or the other must. yield, 3 not, nreessary to prevent slm'ery being extended to the- Territories. “I, therefore, oppose Mr. Lincoln for his abolition doclrines, declared in his speeches, that. slave labor must conquer free labor, or the reverse; Ihat tbelwo are incompatible in our country, and both cannot exist together. Now, as no one supposes that the Soulhern people will ever make slaves of us at the North, it. fol lows that the intention of this pfirty is that Northern freeman shall leap over the bounda rles of the Constitution and make free the olives in the South.” We pray that‘Hc-éiven will commend this sound advice to the consciences of 1111 Chris tians and law revering men.

Cresson on the 9th day of Au gust. last, and that, we recommem'i to the Dem cratic party of Pennsylvania to stand by the electoral ticket. made at Reading by the Demo igmie amte Convention on the first. of March, 60. To which Mr. Isaac Leech offered the follow ing amendm‘ nt: . Wnnnsas, It is the duty of all Union-loving and conservative citizens to unite in such man ner as will best prevent the election of the see tionnl candidates, Lincoln and Hamlim ; and as it is believed that there are a. mnj rity of voters in the State of Pennsylvania who are opposed to the hostile and aggreseive doctrines of the Republican party ; therefore, be it Resolved, That the electoral ticket formed at Reading, on the first day of March last, be enh mitted to the voters of Pennsylvania tor the votes of all conservative citizens opposed to the election of Lincoln, provided that each elector will pledge himself in writing, within ten days from this date, that in the event ofhis electioii {l3 an elector. lie willeast his vote for President and Vice President in such a. manner as the Reading Convention, rte-assembled for such purpose on the 20th day of November, may di rect, whether it be for Douglas and Johnson, Breekinridge and Lane, or Bell and Everett. Resolved, That believing that there is a deci— ded majority of the voters of this State hostili to sectionalism, end the election of the sectional candidates, Lincoln and Hamlin, we call upon them to forego past differences, and to unite as the conservatism: Union and Constitutions-Ipan in support of the tucket here. presented. Resolved, That the place oi’any one declining to 'give the required pledge may be filled with one ’who will give such pledge to the State Central Committee, who shall assemble at this place on October 23d, at 10 o’clock A. M. Mr. Corrigan offered the following amend— ment to the amendment: Resolved, That. a committee of five from this committee be appointed to meet the commuter of the same number lately appomtcd fratu and by the State Committee of the Consmutiunat Union party, of this State, to confer on the subject of a joint- electoral ticket, the determi nation of said commit-tee of five to be reported to the Demucra ic State Committee for their acceptance or rejectiun.

Tun RECEPTION OF THE Pumas 0F WALES IN NEW YORK—We gave yesterday a brief account. of the recepliun of Lord Renfrew (Prince 0: Wales) on his arrival in New York on Thurs day after-noun. The" reception, from all an conhts, was amagnificenl-aflair, in which about 200,000 perslms either took an active part. or Icoked on w'u h interest. H e was met a: Amboy by a. large comminee of citizens, among whom was the veteran General Scott, who was the. first. to take the hand of the Prince. Embark ing on the beautiful steamer Harriet Lane. the were soon enroutc for New York. On passing the Narrows a salute was fired from Fort Hamilton, which was responded to by the Governor’s Island Band on board. Beu loe’s Island also fired a salute, and Fort Wil liam, on Governor’s Island, paid the party a similarcompliment. As the Harriet Lane neared the Battery. the view, it is stated, was anions ting in the extreme. The gaily decked ship ping on both the North and East rivers; the saluting from the merchant shipping and from the forts; the cruwds which thronged the pier hends, and darkened the roofs of every house top, and the dazzling uniforms and the bristllng bayonets of the military which occupied th-ry foot of space upon the Battery, formed a scene the most. impressive and beautiful. The galle ries around Castle Garden were most densely packed. . ' The Prince landed amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the aswmbled thOusunds, and entered Castle Gordon, bowing and raising his hot as he proceeded. The room was decorated with a profuse display of hunting; English and Ame ricntt colors, amicably interwoven, run .along the benistere of the gallery, and twined them selves around the columns in the centre. while flags of nearly all the nations of the earth hung upon the walls. or depended from curds stretched across the arena. The Prince advan cing to the centre of the room, was introuuued to Mayor Wood, who Welcomed him as follows: “ Your Royal Highness: As chiefmagistrute .of the mm” I welcome you here, and believe that I represent the entire population, without encepliou.“ To which the Prince responded as follows: ‘- It affords me great pleasure to acceptyour hoepilalilies, which I have no doubt will be war-thy of the great city ofNew York.” Mayor Wood then introduced the Prince to a large number of city oflicials. Soon after, the Prince having pm on the uniform of a. colo nel of the British army, took the arm of Mayor Wood, who escorted him and several of his suit to the street. where they mounted splendid horses and reviewad the military, consisting of three brigades, and numbering about 7,000 man, Who appeared tog-real. advantage. The fnmoué Seventh appeared to make a great impression upon the party, General Bruce audibly express ing his opinion of them in the mast favorable m aner. The review was concluded about 3:} o’clock. when the Priucv was conducLed lo the carriage provided for him. which was drawn by six mag nificent black horses. The procession, as it passed up Broadway and Park Row to the Park, was greeted with wild enthusiasm by thousands. At the City Hall the military passed in re view, the Prince meanwhile, with Mayor Wood and the suite of the for-men, standing on on clemted platform. covered with a. carpet. The military occupied an hour and a. half in pass ing. In being now quite dark, the Prince pro ceeded rapidly to the Filth Avenue Hotel. Which he reached at 6,} o‘clock. The Courier an s: 3*" The Duke of Newcastle expressed to Mr. Thompson, the Mayor’s Secretary, his gratifi cation at lhe magnificence of the receplion._ The authorities, he said, deserved much praise, but. the people deserved more. Never had he seen such good order preserved-41. was m Wandrrful. The Duke then alluded to ' port’whieh had appeared in some of the papers to die effect that the Prince had 31: annoyed and insulted in Richmond. He ‘ nied that. 511 d! an incident; but! occurrel‘. . l ‘ regretted that it. had appeared in thep .0 prints. as it. would give a wrgng impreaj . bnglapd.
