Slum—on Talon—lt is rumored that orders to the
mum in Ohio, ludiamand Illinois to vote the Douglas
elect-rel ticket, have recently been issued from Wash.
ington. We do not believe a. word of iii—but, if it is so,
it in only a scheme to prevent an election by the people,
and throw it into Congress. They fancy that the House
will not be able to elect, uni that in the and. they may
so mace-rue as to elect theirfavorite tool, Old Joe Lane,
by the Senna. The Washington managers have so de
nonllsed the party North and South. that they can use
itu they yleaae. We shall sea—State Sentinel.
About. the amount of this complaint is. that
the Administration is engaged in a. scheme to
prevent the election of Lincoln by the people,
3nd to promote the election of some good, sound
national man. The Democratic party would
like very much to see this scheme succeed;
and would be very much obliged to the Admin
istration for suggesting any policy calculated
to save the country from the dangers conse
quent. upon the election of a sectional Repub
lican President. Does the Douglas organ really
desire ,the election of Lincoln by the people ?
The above article from its columns squints very
much that way. It. seems impossible for the
Administration to do anything to please these
genuemen. The burden of their complaint, up
to this time, has been that the Administration
encouraged the running of Breckinridge elec
toral tickets in the States of Ohio, Illinois and
Indiana, for the purpose of defeating the Doug
Ins ticket, and securing the election of Lincoln
by the people. But no sooner is it. rumored
that these Breckinridge tickets are to he drop
ped infarct of the Douglas ticket. than the
tune is changed, and the Administration de
nounced for compiling to give the electoral
votes of Ohio, Indiana. and Illinois to Mr.
Douglas. What a demoralizcd Administration !
Actually plottingto defeat Lincoln!
“We shall see.” We hope we shall see on
Tuesday whether these professed Douglas men
actor or against Lincoln. Ifagainst him, they
will vote for the Reading electoral ticket; if
for him, they will throw away their sufi‘i‘ages
upon the Forncy Straight-out ticket.
How “in New York Vote?
The whole interest of the Presidential con
test is now centered in New York. Entry eye
is turned towards the Empire State. Lincoln
cannot be elected without her 35 electoral votes.
Within the past two weeks the hopes of the
Union man of that State have been gradually
rising; all the elements of opposition to Re
publicanism have settled down into the support
of the Union electoral ticket; and, encouraged
by this unanimity, the conservatives of New
York are working earnestly and hopefully to
sue the Union from the perils of Republican
domination.
0n the other hand, the Republicans are not
so confident or arrogant as they were a month
ago, the tone of their organs betraying unmis
tukahle symptoms of apprehension. The do
mestic feud betinen the lenders, growing out
o! the betrayal of Mr. Seward at Chicago, is a.
constant source of irritation, preventing that
oordiality and union indispensable to the man
agement of a successful campaign. These va
rious Vsigns, together with the immense interest
New York has in preserving the peace, if not
the very existence, of the Union, afford some
ground for hope that the Empire State may
turn the tide of battle to-morrow by declaring
against Lincoln; although we confess that the
probabilities are against such a favorable to
snlt. But we hope for the best while fearing
the worst.

Dangers Invoived in the Election of Lin
coln. -
It would be well for the reasonable, prudent,
generous men of the North, to consider atten
tively the imminent dangers which must attend
the success of the Republican candidate.
First, if Lincoln should be elected, he would
he sure to use all the power, patronage and
policy of the Chief Magistraey, to secure the
passage of a law by Congress, shutting out our
brethren of the South, with their property.
from the public domain. The unfairness and
balances of this act is evident. Without. argu
ment, and its nnconstitulionality has been
solemnly declared by the Supreme Court of the
United States. Yet to accomplish this is the
distinct. and avowed object for which he is nom
inated to the Presidency. What. prudent or
just man will not aid by his vote, in preventing
the possibility of such a thing being accom‘
plished.?
Secondly, if Lincoln should be elected, he
will not enforce, but. will rather hinder, the
execution of the Fugitive Slave Law. This law
has been the mark at which the shafts of his
party have been aimed ever since its enactment.
Against it the batteries of the “higher-law"
pulpit. have been leveled. The Republican
press have gloried in every instance where, by
fraud or force, it. has failed of execution. In
these circumstances, the necessary presump
tion is, that. if he should swear to execute the
laws, he would do it with a Jesuiticnl mental
reservation, exceptingthis law from the scope
of his oflieial oath, and that. when he should
appoint Marshals and other ofiicials charged
with the enforcement of the laws, he would
appoint those who would be likely to help but.
feebly in restoring to its owners the property
which the Constitution pledges the North to
restore. Will not the faithful and honest men
of the North rise in their might, and prohibit
the commission of an act of bad faith like
this 2’
Tln‘rdiy, if Lincoln should be elected, ibis to
be feared his Administration would at least. be
wanting in proper energy in suppressing in
surrection and invasion at the South. What
distinct and unequivocal pledge has he giVen
that this shall not ,_be the ease? Who has
heard his emphatic denunciation of. the pirati
eal and horrid expedition of John Brown ? A
large proportion of his party, and among them
some prominent and influential men, have ex
pressed their approval of that affair; surely
there is danger that if he were elected, the
persons andfifamilies of our Southern brethren
would not receiveflhat protection which they
would need, and which the pronsions of the
Constitution and the impulses of humanity de
mand from the government of the Union--
What patriotic or humane citicen will consent,
that the country should be placed in such a.
position as this?
These are the dangers, clear and imminent,
in which the election of Lincoln would involve
the South. If only one of these perils should
be realized—if the South should be excluded
from the Territories, or the laws should not be
executed, or insurrection and invasion should
be feebly resisted; whet dire calamities might.
overwhelm the people of our whole land!—
What confusion—what embarrassment—what.
depression—what reproaehes—whst hatred—.—
whnt civil tumult—what blood! None of us
Would be tmafl'ected by the consequences of
such unrighteous measures as we have reason
to expects. Republican Administration to adopt:
Tnssn nsxcnns CAN NOW, nn A‘vsmnn BY
VOTES. Bring on the votes, then. Prevent-ion
is far better than cure. The ‘ballot-box can
roll back the tide of desolation. It is for the
people to say whether the hallotvbox should do
it!
Lincoln Between Two Fires.
The threatening aspect. of ofi‘oirs in the event
of Lincoln’s election, and the probability of
alarm and insecurity at the South, appear to be
creating a great deal of anxiety in the Repub
lican ranks, and threaten to divide and break
up that party, almost in advance of the elec
tion. It is evident that the really honest and
sincere friends of the Union in the Lincoln
party, (and we believe there are such), are be»
coming aware of the hazard which they take in
forcing upon the country a candidate who,
whatever may be his individual views, repre
sents the extreme sectional feeling, and would,
if elected, be regarded by the South as commit
ted to a. policy which would deprive them of
their rights, and deny them equality with their
brethren in the other sections of the Union.
Several of the Northern State: have already
practically violated the national compact, by
nullifying, within their respective States, the
pro visions of the fugitive slave law, and refusing
to carry into efl'eet, or to allow Within their
borders, the redemption of the Constitutional
Pledge for the return of persons escaping from
labor or service in the Slave States. This act
of bad faith, this practical violation of an im
portant provision of the Federal Compact, is
PTOPEI‘Iy regarded at the South as the act and
policy of the Republican party. It has only
been attenfipted in I’lepublieeu States, and has
there been supported only by Republican legis~
lators. It has m fact been the favorite manna.
resorted to by politicians of the Republican
faith, of annoying and vexing the South—of
preventing the return- of their Properly~nnd
of withholding from them that justice and that
fi-at'ernal feeling which are guarantied to them
by the plainest provisions of the compact be
tween the several States.
Mr. Lincoln is the candidate of- the party
which has thus sought to annoy and to vex the
South; the party which, to the extent. of its
poorer, has refused to ohey and carry into effect
the provisions of the Constitution. As their
chosen representative, it is to be expected that,
if elected, his policy would harmonize with
theirs, his veiws agree with their views, and
his action in national affairs with their action
in the more limited sphere in which, hitherto,
they have been allowed to exercise authority.
Taking this View of the question, it is not sur
prising that thoughtful men in all sections
of the Union are alarmed at the here possibility
of Lincoln’s election, and that Southern men,
especially, should look with apprehension upon
such a consummation of all the evils which the
Republicans, as a leading political power in
the North, have sought to inflict upon them.—
Hence the earnest. and deep seated feeling at
the South in favor of secession, in the event- of
the choice of Mr. Lincoln to the Presidency. it
is not so much'the apprehension of the imme—
diate acts .which he, as President, would have
it in his power to perform, 'as u. seeming ratifi
cation and endorsement by one section of the
Union, of all the series of aggressions and
wrongs which have been attempted, and en
acted, to some extent; an endorsement which,
if once made, would put an end to the hope of
future justice and equality among the States,
and leave for the South only the prospect of
continued and perpetual annoyance and injury.
This we understand to be the light in which
sensible men view this question. It'is not that
the election of Mr. Lincoln would, in itself. be
such an alarming circumstance, independent
of its connection with previous aggressions
and violations of vested rights; but as a. se
quence to those departures from good faith and
honor, and an endorsement of those objection
able sets, it assumes proportions, and threat
ens dangers, which otherwise would not belong
to it.
Understanding the deep feeling everywhere
pervading the South, and the extreme danger
which will attend the proclaimed election of
Lincoln, leading men in the Republican perly
have been considering what can be done to
counteract such feeling, and in the event of his
success. prevent the movement on the part of
the Cotton Slates, now so generally appre
hended. Various expedients have been sug
gested, but. the leaders in MLLineoln’s interest
find it extremely diflioult to hit upon any plan
which they deem it safe to promulgate before
the election. One idea is, that Mr. Lincoln
shall immediately after the result is ascertained,
if it shall be found that he is chosen, issue a
sort of manifesto or proclamation, announcing
the principles upon which his Administration
will he conducted. Another is, that he shall
immediately after the ascertainment of his
election, make a tender of places in hisCahinet
to distinguished Southern men, as a guaranty
that. the rights of the South are not to be inva
ded. But neither of these overcomes the diffi
culty which now most cmbarrasses the Repub
lican leaders, which is, the great danger of
losing the votes of conservative men in their
own ranks. To prevent this pressing immedi<
ate difiicnlty, Mr. Lincoln is urged to allow
to be proclaimed, at this time, certain leading
principles which he would carry into effect;
one of them being the rigid and efficient exe
cution of the fugitive slave law. But this,
however it might. operate as a palliative, and
prevent the stampede of all conservative men
from the Republican ranks, is a. measure which
the friends of Lincoln dare not advise him to
adopt, lost it shall drive from him more radi
cal Abolitionists than it would save of honest
friends of the Union.
Thus is Mr. Linco‘n placed between two fires,
either of which will burn him if he ventures to
move a step from his present attitude. Ho
dare not pledge bimselfto execute the laws and
do his duty to the Whole country, and with the
onus of Abolitionism and fanaticism sticking
to him closer than the shirt of Nessus, he is daily
losing the confidence of men who will stand by
the Constitution at all hazards—hum!!! qf

Nannow Escape mos: Lumen Lam—A worth
less young negro named John Faraway, living
at Westminster, Md.. narrowly escaped lynch
law last week. It appears from the Smtincl
that a daughter of the Rev. 'l‘. Gallaudet, one
of the most excellent and amiable young ladies
in the county, took a stroll alone to Sun Set
Hill, where she was sketching some views of
the grand and pioturesqe scenery around it,
when she was suddenly approached by Faraway.
Alone and unprotected. she suddenly became
almost frantic with fear, when she entreated
him to leave her, to which the young vagabond
threatened to-knock her head off if she at
tempted to escapeor scream. She had no money,
but gave him a. fine ring, when just at that op
portune moment Charles Stullar, who was out
gunning, hove in sight, when the reprobate
left her and went to Stuller with the utmost
composure and exhibited the ring, which, he
said. the young lady gave him. Hastily re
turning home, Miss G. discovered to the family
what had occurred; the neighbors soon got
wind of it, formed an impromptu committee of
vigilance, arrested the young scoundrel, 31nd
would have lynched him on sight had not wiser
counsels prevailed. He was finally committed
for trial.
Ax Uzs'lmm'i'ioxan Conuwmnsn—J‘lot long
ago an edition of “Goethe’s Correspondence
With a Child”+that7“strange, wild book,” as
an English critic calls it—was published. in
Boston. Its typographical beauty and handy
form attracted'the attention of a London book
seller, who at once purchased a large number
of copies from the American publisher, and
with his own imprint upon the title-page pro
dueed it in England. It was highly praised
there for the elegance of its execution, and one
journal wentso far as to commend its appearance
as “characteristic of the house from which it
issued.” It was pounced upon by the agent of
an enterprising bookselling firm in New York,
and several coyies were sent over for sale at
nine shillings (sterling) each about double the
price of the same edition with the American
title page. No doubt the booksellers found
wiseaeres enough to take 011“ the copies of the
English edition even at double the price.—
Not a had ,oomplimout, on the whole, to the
beauty of the volume, and to the “University
Press” of Cambridge, where the printing was
done.
A SILVER Monsnm.——The excitement. con
cerning the newly-discovered silver mines. says,
the Oregon City Argus, on the head—waters of
the Molnlla, seems to be getting intense. Par
ties are continually arriving in town, making
their outfit. and departing for the silver regions.
A party from town went. out this week and I'e
turned, after each one had taken out a. claim
of one hundred feet. front, running to the top
of the mountain The amount of silver sup
posed to be there is almost fabulous. D, 1),
Thompson, fit}, one of the returned party.
thinks the mountain is a mass of silver ore,
containing probably hundreds of millions oflhe
mineral—or at any rate double as much as
there is in the Santiam mines, which were
suited by us to amount. to 100.000,000 of tons,
which. at. $5,333 to the ton, (estimated,) would
gwa $5 333,000,000. Supposing the Molalla,
silvu mines zo«contain' 200,000,000 of tons,
and to be equally as rich as the Santinm ore,
thvre is no question but they are worth
$1,066,600,000,000. .
GENERAL NE WS.
I=l
Tan Cnnmsn AND Tm: Aunts—Advices
from China. state that the position of the Chi
nose on the Pei-ho river is represented to be a.
very strong one. and in addition to these for
tifications they have two bodies of troops, one
numbering 40.000, and the other from 40,000 to
50,000. It was expected that the attack on the
part. of the English and French fleets would
certainly be made on the 12th or 13th of‘ August
last, as a. longer delay might result in a great
deal of sickness, from the malaria. of the marshes.
Mr. Ward, our minister, was with the allied
fleet, as was our entire naval force on the sta
tion. This fact gav'e great dissatisfastion to
the Amefican residents of Shanghai, who could
not see the necessity of two American war
steamers at the Pei~hn, especially when Shang
hai was threatened with a rebel force of 20,000,
which was reported to be only four miles ofi‘.
The whole available force in the city to defend
it was only about 1,500 men.
Tun Convnnsios or SAILING VESSEL: ix'ro
STEA}XERS.——The board appointed by the Soc
retary of the. Navy to examine the sailing
ships of the Nauy to determine. the expediency
of converting them into efficient war steam
ers, are said to have recommended only the
following line of battle ships: Pennsylvania,
Columbus, Ohio, North Carolina, Alabama,
Virginia. and New York. The other two, the
Delaware and New- Orleans, are unfit, both in
frame and planking, for this alteration. The
entire cost of converting these ships, accor
ding to their estimate, will be three millions
sixty-four thousand dollars—about one-half
Ihe cost. of steam frigates of the Minnesota
class.
Pkoxouxcnn Sson.——-The question, “what is
a. snob,” is likely to be satisfactorily answered
through the discussion now being carried on
among; the military men and hotel keepers in
New York. It appears that. Gov. Morgan,
having invited one of his stafl‘, who also kept a.
hotel, to the Prince of Wales dinner, recalled
the invitation, because he was assured it was
not. etiquette for a. prince to dine at the same
table with a. hotel keeper. The military and
the gentleman who keep a. hotel have voted the
Governor a “snob,” and remind him that he, as
a. grocer and vender of molasses and nutmegs,
had not any great advantage over a hotel
keeper. The insulted Boniface has resigned
his. military commission.
Tun ADAMS Exrnnss ROBBERY.—-It willbe
recollected that on the night of the 16th of
April last, the safe of the Adams Express
Company, on the New York and New Haven
Railroad, was thrown from its place in the bag
gage car out of the door, near Westport, Conn,
While the train was in full motion. There
were in the safe money and drafts to the
amount of $16,000. Since then the ofiicers in
charge of the matter have been working form;
elucidation. The baggage-master of the train
was subsequently arrested, and it- is now stated
has lately confessed his guilt, having been
