    From Harristhug.
The Harrisburg correspondent of the
Philadelphia North American says : Thom.
C. Seouller and Glenni W. Sootheld, the
two out of the three signers of the majority
repprt on the slavery question, submitted to
the House on Monday, now state that they
did not agree with all the positions assum
ed in Mr. Beaumont's report, but desired
merely that the whole question should be
brought before the House,'
Mr. J: M. Porter denounced the political
heresies contained in Mr. Beaumont's report,
stating, at the same time, that he disapprov
ed of both the majority and minority reports.
Mr, Beaumont's report it is supposed will
not be adopted.
From Washington.
'The debate on the Slavery question, after
two day's recess, was resumed in the Sen
ate yesterday, if not with additional spirit,
with a change of characters by the principal
actors from the South. From an incendiary
Mr. Foote is translated into a prophet, frcim
an eater up of men. Mr. Clemens, is chang
ed into an cater up of •words. Mr. Foote
predicts that, unk!ss his Compromise com
mittee of thirteen is appointed at once, be
fore, Saturday next there will be an end to
the Union.- AIN Clemens is-more charita
ble, and, like the later followers of t 1 Her
ism, he is willing to post-pone the destruc
tion of the country for two weeks, provided
not another word is uttered on the siavery
question. We pretend no knowledge of
the secret machinations of the disonionists;
hut still we are inclined to regard the half
threats, half-predictions, of the two gentle
men named as a p elude effort to frighten.
trhen they can no longer impose.

France.
President Bonaparte has established at
Paris a newspaper called The Napoleon,
which is understood to be par exce.llenza,
the Presidential organ. lie has not only
established it, but he is likewise one of the
editors, and writes articles occasionally, bad
good, or indillerent. Some say (and it is
tint unlikely. we think.) that the "N:apole
on" is intended to advocate, openly or sub
rosa, the restoration of the Empire, which
would place Napoleon the Second on the
throne of course. An editorial, from the pen
probably of his Excellency himself, suys
that the French nation has to choose bet Wve n
the virtue of ‘Vashington and the glory of
Napoleon ; and that the Republicans of
Fiance will know how to decide. Now this
if said in tnemca, Won ie ruse epu c o
but one construction—ti !tether we should
take the virtue of one great man or the glo
ry of another. /re should be nearly unan
imous fur the man of virtue and his system.
But the case is different in France. There
the.nation goes for glory, to which almost
everything is rearded as secondary, tvhen
it is• viewed under the aspect of national
property. This word glory is there talis
manic ; the child lisps it in infancy ; -the
schoolboys first. most lasting impressions,
are connected with _the_glory of
,the Great
Nation ; the soldier charges his enemy in
the name of glory, and the statesman's gui
ding star is ever the national glory. This
was the secret of Napoleon's vast.populari
ty ; he !rave the French glory until they
were almost surfeited with it ; and the dirt . .•
at last came,that fighting, chivalrods, and
heroic people shifted for peace. The first
signs they gave of having had enough . of
blood, and t. ietory. and glory, was when Na
poleon made War upon Spain in ISOl", thi,7
was never - a popular war in Prance, and
which led, without doubt, to the Emperor's
overthrow. by using up two hundred thous
and of his hest troops, and by creating chitlins
of his invincibility. which no Frenchman
had before doubted. \\Then front 2(1,01)1) to
:25,000 French veterans laid down their
arms at Bay len to a force composed of Span
ish militia, the astonishment and consterna
tion WaS greater in France than had been
produced by any previous calamity. The
loss of the fleet at the Nile and at Trafalger
were great calamities ; but diet= were not
go cntirely unlooked-for and confounding as
the surrender of a whole French army to
an enemy who was not only nut feared, but
despsed. •

Frightful Scene at a Menagerie.
An inquest was hold on tho first instant.
touching the death of 1.:11..n Brioht, a vonnr.2, -
girl agt(l 17 years, who was Icijvcl on thc
previous evening. by a tiger in the estab
lishment of Mr. Geopre Wombwell. which
had arrived in ChathaM. England, fin- exhi
bition oh the preceding day. Stephen King
the first witness examined. said he had been
in the employ of Mr. Wombwell as keeper
for the last six years. The deceased was a
niece of Mr. Wombw.)ll's, and daughter of
John Bright, a bugle player it) the band.—
It was the business of the deceased to co into
the dens and perform with the beasts, which
she had been in the habit of dointi several
times daily for the last twelve months. On .
the evening of the first, shortly after nine
o'clock, she went into the den ih which a
lion and , tiger wore kept, for the purpose of
performing, as usual; the tricks played by
her being principally with the former ani
mal. She had only been in two or three
minutes, but had gone through the main part
of the performance, excepting that of !talk
ing the lion sit down in a particular part of
the cage, yhen the tiger being in her
the deceased struck it slightly with a small
whip ‘vhich she carried in her hand. Time
beast growled as if in anger. and crouching
Close to the bottoM of the den, stretched out
its paw, as if at her h)g or dress, causing
the deceased to fall sideways against the
cage, the animal at the same moment spring
ing at her, and sei z ing her furiously by the
neck, inserting the teeth of the upper jaw
in her chin, and in closing his month. inflict
ing frightful injury in the throat by his fangs.
Ile then appeared to change his position,
making a second gripe across the, throat o f
his victim. A keeper who was standi ng
on the step of the den, armed with a whip,
immediately rushed to her aSsistatice, but
the animal did not loose its' hold until struck
over the nose violently with an iron bar, and
whilstone held the animal, the unfortunate
fe
tuale was removed from the cage bleeding
profusely and life all but extinct. She was
taken into one of the caravans, where she
was immediately attended by two medical
g,entlemen who happened to be present at
the time of the occurrence. By a witness,
The animal hind never exhibited symptoms
of animosity before. All the animals ap
peared very fond of deceased, and she of
them. lle saw the deceased enter, and in
going in, the tiger did not appear to be very
friendly with her, she struck him on going
in and he laid down. She then proceeded
to her performances with the lion, and after
wards turned round and again struck the ti
ger: It appeared angry, and immediately
seemed .to turn upon the deceased, rearing
upon his hind legs, and seizing. her by the
neck ; she fell on her back, and the tiger
crouching over her he saw no more•of.her
until removed from thu , den, when he hash.
- erred to her assistance. She was perfectly
insensible and had lost a great deal of blond ;
and tier face and lips were very pale. She
was still alive, her heart was beating, but
she was perfectly unconscious, and in a few
minutes her heart ceased to beat. 'llirl f re
were four wounds on the left side of the
neck, a slight wound on the left leg, and an
other on the chin, caused by the teeth oldie
tiger, the under jaw of the animal having
caused a very lar , re wound under the chin.
which. aided by the shock her system had

knee badly broken—after laying; 3 weeks,
and nothisig done for it, the animal in the
mean time by thrashing about in his agony,
had worn the hair nearly old' him. Tito ow
ner with axe in hand was about to putt an
end to the. stifferitnrs of his favorite
when our informer solicited and obtainod a
present of the horse. and with help got hint

ed the bones speedily to unite anti impart
