From the National Capitol !
A GLORIOUS TRIIINIPII
.riPWe have the gratification cf an
nouncing to our friends a signal triumph
'of Americanism in the Capitol of the Re
public, despite the desperate and despotic
efforts of the friends of the National Ad
ministration. A year ago the Americans
carried. Washington City, beating the Dem
ocratic candidate for Mayor by 486 ma.
jority. Stung by that unexpeoted result,
the sham Democracy of that district,
backed by the powerful influence of the
Administration and. its retainers in the
Government offices, determined to spare
no effort to recover their lost ground. at
the late election. With this view the
notes of active preparation for the contest
were duly sounded for weeks, before elec.
lion day, and everything betokened a
route of Americanism. A fusion was ef
fected with the old-lino anti-American
Whigs. This, with the heavy force at
work on the Government buildings and
in the Navy Yard, gave them considerable
advantage. Besides this votes were claim
ed for abitut 180 'Foreigners in the dis
trict, naturalized since the 81st of Decem
ber, whose assistance was expected to
turn the scale. Not trusting the election
officers—most, if not all, being Americans
—an 'attempt was made to got an order
from the Circuit Court of the District in
favor of the right of these foreigners to
vote at the municipal election. The Court,
however, decided that the acceptance or
rejection of those votes was a matter for
the election officers to decide, and that
the Court had no power in the premises.—
To make doubly sure, the Demostratio
Association adopted a resolution demand-
ing that every anti-American voter vote
an open ballot in view of a poll committee
—ostensibly to guard against being cheated
by the electitiii officers, but really to enable
them tliwork. the thumb•serews of party
more effectually, and doter honest voters,
depititioiet - upon Government patronage
for daily subsistence, from voting their
honest sentiments. This system worked
'capitally in Virginia, and the same result
was anticipated at Washington. True, it
was a gross, unparalleled outrage urn! Be
ipublican right, but, what care the reckless
domagognes mho load the anti-American
crusade for Republicanism or true Democ
racy, save as hypocritical pratings and
professions of them may servo to deceive
and mislead the honest masses ?
But all would not do. The combined
coalition of Whigs, Democrats. Catholics,
and Foreigners—backed by the Govern
ment forces and drilliergpants of party—
was handsomely beaten by the sturdy A
merican yeomanry of the district, who send
greeting to their brethren of the Union,
that the National Capitol is still 0. K.,
sod records a . second time her approval of
the doctrine that "Americans shall rule
America." We annex the result :

The Americans also carried five of the
seven wards, electing a majority to both
branches of ihe'City Council&
We regard this of signal importance,
following immediately upon the Virginia
election, and achieved, as it was, in the
face of disadvantages that would have
crushed any other organization. The ob•
jcct of the Administration was to "crush
out" Americanism from the Capitol City
of the Republic. , But they have failed—
most: signally ',The anti-American
partizans have been. making, .themselves
merry over the Virginia election—even
"Penelope" being called 'to assist in
the mock iubilatione over the election of
a renegade Whig,-the bitter personal aid
political foe of JACKBON, and in times past
an equally bitter foe of Democracy. , We
may therefore be excused in bringing out
our cannon to announce this triumph of
Americanism, and think her mission a fit
ting one when announcing that result
neath ttie folds ef the Ameihnin flag.

writing from !iiireiitOrti4irslitto of May 22,
spoilt& as folllues
"Several new Post Offices have been e
rected on the Santa Fe road ; among oth
ers chte at Council City, the town of your
New York Settlement Company. The
place fit spoken of as the most healthy and
beautiful in the Territory, and the region'
round about is rapidly filling up with good
emigrants. Two families went in a few
days since with sixteen children."
We learn that a minister is alreadY set
tled there. A steam saw mill has been
sent out and put up, and a population of
some five hundred persons or more is al
ready gathered there. Theso facts will be
interesting to those of our citizens who
have secured an interest in lots in Coun
cil City, the distribution of which is to oc
bur very sht.rtly. • . •
Rev. IL B. Boynton and T. 11. Mason
in their "Journey through Kansas," thus
describe thd region lying around Council
City :—"A most beautiful region of min
try, in which woodland seemed to ho suffi
ciently ahnndunt for life's purposes, and
where graindandand rueadows and bilkido
pastimes were ready nil rides for the
population to come. There is ono of the
finest regions io the Territory for a largo
colony—large enough for a county. ' It is
on the great Santa Fe Road, and a town in
this vicinity would probably become, to a
considerable exteut, a depot for the south
western trade, while tho agricultural re
sources of the surrounding country, being
almost unlimited, would of themselves sup
port a largo inland city."
The Lots in Council City are selling.at
$2, the lot holders to bonnie the corporate
owners of the unsold portion within the
city limits—thus, in addition to the hold
ing of their own lots, participating in the I
profits arising from the sole of the rbalain- I
iag lots.
Imports and Exports.
Tb o imports of foreign merchan
dise entered at New York during the pres
ent year show a gratifying reduction com
pared with the same period last year—the
pressure in the money affairs remedying
to some extent the tendencies of the pres
ent anti-Angriest' legislation of the coun
try. The imports at New York for the
mouth of May reached, including $69,590
in specie, $11,645,986, against over seven
teen millions for May last year. The ex
ports fiU. the same time, including $5,320,-
152 specio-810,995,028—being a mil
lion greater total export and a million less
in specie, than in, May, 1854. Exports
for five months this year—including $13,-
212,402 speeie—s4o,4o2,s4l`; same time
iu 1854, $40,101,070, of which $11,017,-
684 was inispeeie. Cash duties received
for May, $2,400,48245inc0 January Ist,
$11,983,480. In May, 1854, $3,243,161
—first five months in 1854, $17,385,-
352.
This change is already favorably affect
ing the condition of money matters in the
cities, and is a practical illustration of
what the country might exiled from a re
storation of the great American system
of protection to Home Industry. Were
the millions of gold retained in this coun
try to sustain our liVorlishops and feed our
own Mechanics and Laborers, instead of
being poured into the coffers of English,
French and German capitalists, as is now
the legitimate consequence of free-trade
revenue laws, what a different aspect would
our country present I Is it not time that
we become more Americanized ?
prThe American movement is sweep
ing over the Union, scattering the old or
ganizations before it. In Kentucky, Ten
nesse°, Alabama, and other States in the
South, the American party have put' up
full State tickets—the old-line anti-Amer
ican Whigs. and Democrats fusing and
uniting on candidates to oppose them.—
A Democratic member of 4be recent A
merican State Convention, in Georgia in
forms the,lVilledgeville Recorder that it
"was composed of about equal numbers
of old Whigs and Demoorats, it anything,
the latter having the "Majority. Few
prominent politicians of either party were
present. It was mainly made up of thO
substantial, intelligent, thinking men of
the country, who have but little to do with
political life, but who are 'now thoroughly

10. - Tbe Catholic Church Property
question has arisen in Connecticut, though
rather in a different way from the Now
York dispute. The congregation of the
Catholic Clinch in Norwich purchased a
burial ground with money contributed by
themselves, but it is held in fee by the ec
clesiastics, who, it is alleged, impose a se
rious tax on the lots, and refuse to account
for the money. Another canto of difficul
ty is in relation to the pew holders, upon
whom a double tax has been levied, and
all arc ejaeted who refuse to pay it. The
congregation has appealed to the Connec
ticut Legislature for a law regulating the'
conveyance of real estate for religious pur
poses.
DISTRESS IN ARK A NSAS.—Ac
counts from the interior of Arkansas rep
resent things in a most alarming situation.
The people are destitute of provisions, the
earth is dry and parched, no seed will ger
minate, and they have the prospect of a
real famine before them. The Arkansas
river continues nearly dry, and therefore
suppli2s are cut off to a great extent.—
Flour is $l5 per barrel, or 10 cents a
pound ; corn meal from . $2 to $5 per
bushel, according to circumstances, corn
from $1 to $3 50 ; Irish potatoes s'4o Per
barrel.
P. S.—Later rdrices from Arkansas gird
cheering accounts of very heavy rains which

to receive the benediction. But instead
of the pressure of his hand upon my head,
I felt the impression of a kiss upon my

I staggered to my feet and ejaculated, al
most unconsciously, the words, "Oh,

composure, seizing my wrist with his left
hand, and encircling my waist with his

imprinted a kiss on my face belbre I was

Alleged Conspiracy .to get a
Husband.
It has always been considered the duty
of the Steiner aux to woo, win and pop the
question to the "fairer portion of crea-
Min," except when leap year gives an
implied license to women to win tar them : .
selves a husband and a home. We like
the wooing to be dune by the masculine
gender, and we must admit that our sense
of propriety was somewhat shocked on
Saturday at the hearing of n case before
Ald. Hibbard, in which it was clearly
proven, that a bountiful young female nut
only "popped the question," but a tlempt
ed to supplant a wile in'the Amnions of
her husband.
The facts of the case are as follows :
It . is alleged that a young man , daguerreo
types I , recently traveled through Pennsyl
vania with his mother and two sisters,
the eldest sister about twenty years of age
and quite beautiful, and the youngest about
nine years. Their way led to a public
house in a small village inJelferson county,
Pennsylvania, kept by a very worthy gen
tleman, the husband of a tine looking wo
man, and the father of an interesting little
daughter. A few (lays after the arrival
the wits of the travellers were sot to work,
it it is alleged, to appropriate the snug
quarters to themselves, and during several
days' absence•of the landlord from his
home, the mother of the daguerreotypist,
it is alleged, by snout means or other, in
duced the wife of the landlord to elope with
her son. The guilty party, having wok
them the child of the faithless wife, hurri
ed to Now York and subsequently came
on to this city.
The landlord, on his return home, was
greatly alarmed and uneasy at the absence
of his wife, the alleged conspirators having
told him that she had merely taken a ride
with the young man. In the meantime
every effort was made by the mother and
daughter to inducts the forsaken husband
to Ihrget his wife and cling to the "girl
left behind her ;" but he refused their eo
treu ties, though at the Caine time he .le.
knowledged that lie only wanted his child,
and that the mother should never be Hasp ;
ed to his bosom again. The mother and
daughter, finding their SeiIEMOS unpros
perous, made tracks for this city, and on
their arrival, sought out the runaway.,
and stopped at the sante hotel with
tluem
'l'he disconsolate husband also came on,
and after ti diligent search discovered their
whereabouts.
The wile hearing nl the arrival of her
husband, reunited with her daughter, to
another hotel, and thus saved herself Input
arrest at the tune the lathers were taken in
charge. She was, however, discovered ott
Saturday, and 1..k0n to the alderman's
office, and she was about to be committed
to prison when the linsbland requested the
officer to take her to the hotel, and sec
that she was kept in close confinement.—
This was done, and the husband 511.1,1 ot

Lig • Riot and Dcalb.
Poicri.AND, Mis., June 2.—Mavor Neal
Dow, anticipating the loadoil of the City
Council, recently purelmsed sl,titlo worth
of liquor for the city agency. The liquor
remaining on his hands, several citizens
entered complaint against it, and a war
rent was issued for the seizure of the li
quor. The nay or called a special meet
ing of the aldermen all S'Anird.ly afternoon,
who voted to purchase it fur the city.—
Much interest was felt us to how the mat
ter would terminate.
l'oammin, June 3.—At ten o'clock
last night a noisy mob assembled about
the building used as the liquor agency,
and attempted to break in and destroy the
liquor. The police attempted to pre
serve the peace, and the crowd Wyoming
more threatening. two military companies
were called out. It is thought the mailer
wield end quietly.
At a late hour the mob brake into the
building, when the militsry, drawn up
opposite, fired a volley, killing Eithrain
Robins, of F 4 astpork, and wounding sev
eral others, seine severely. A squad of
the Me Guard then charged the crowd
with bayonets, which rapidly dispersed.
One old gentleman, said to be quietly on
his way home, received a severe bayonet
wound. A few arrests were made, when
the mob entirely dispersed. Another
man is reported dead, having been woun
ded severely.
Pcrrt.swo, June 4.—The excitement
here to-day, growing out of the liquor ri
ot on Saturday night, is intense. Busi
ness is nearly entirely suspended. A.
public meeting has been called for the
purpose of instituting measures to prose
cute those who gave °niers last night to
fire into the citizens and spend their blood
without, it is alleged, a just cause.
The funeral of Robins, the man who
was shot by the military, took place this
afternoon and was followed to the grave
by an immense procession. A large
number of , special police are on duty to_
night.

But hoped that as a good many of" Sam's"

there was danger of a union of Chnrch and

The Kane pcpedithlhd
Two years ego front Thursday week, tie
Tribune says, the adventurous 'Kane, with
a crew of sixteen menotet sail from New
York, in the little barque Advance, lor the
Arctic Seas, in search of Sir John Frank- ,
lin: His vessel was provisioned for a three
years' mile°, which it Was 'supposed
might, by fishing and hunting, be made to
last one or two years longer. Since July,
1858, Dr. Kane and hie party hays not
been heard from, and it is supposed that
during the open summer of that year, he
entered Smith's Sound, and pushed
through to discover the supposed open
sea beyond where he imagined Frank
lin had gone. The following winter was
ono of extreme severity, and-.the conclu
sion is that the Advance was so firm
ly frozen up that the succeeding summer
did natrelease her from the ice. Dr. Kane
intended before entering Smith's Sound to
lease a supply of provisions at Cape Alex-
ander, and it is probable that he has re•
turned to and is now at that place. On
Thursday the United States expedition
for the release of Dr. Kane, left New
York, the Release in tow of her consort,
the propellor Arctic. As the two vessels
sailed away on their merciful errand, the
crews of the South Carolina and Congress
manned the rigging, and together t ith
multitude of persons on the wharves and
piers, sent six hearty hurrahs after them.
These were returned with equal spirit by
the gallant sailors of the expedition.—
Every advantage has been taken of the
experience of former navigators within
the Arctic circle, and through the kindness
of John Barrow, Secretary of the British
Admiralty, the most recent maps „and
charts have been furnished to'Capt. Hart
stein and his officers. ' In regard to the
provisioning, M. Henry Orient:4 with his
usual solicitude has personally superin
tended the preparation of the preserved
meats. and given a general supervision to
the entire outfit. The cause in which
this expedition is embarked is one that
commends itself to our warmest sympa
thies—:and with good _officers, staunch
!ships and a sturdy set of seamen it cannot
!fail of success. May it soon return in
Isafety with Dr. Kane and his compan
! ions.
THE' AMERICAN PARTV--The Newark
Eagle, formerly one of the most ultra
Democratic journals in the country, bolds
the following language in reference to the
American Party :
We think, and have so thought for a
long time past, that the time has arrived
when every man of patrotic impulses
should unite his fortune with the Amer
ican party. We had hoped to see the
Democratic party adopt the leading prin.
elides of the former, but whether it do so or
not we do not hesitate in declare our pref
erence fur the American creed, as now
advanced and mentained in the State
of Virt.7iniri, the birthplace of the father of
dnicrican Di:inner:my—Thomas Jefferson
—who wished there was an ocean of tire
between this country and Europe.
In taking this position we are not a
ware that we are severing the chain that
has hitherto bound us to the Democratic
party. I! the constitutional organs of that
party will 1101 heed the voice of the people
as heard in thunder tones through the hal
lot-box, they must not blame the Aperi
can portion of their Democratic readers,
if they refuse to be longer guided by their
advises nr influenced by their reasoning.
'flis day of American truckling to for
eign prejudices is past, and while we
would proscribe no man on account of
his birth, or religion, we shall in ['mire
be governed by the sentiment that none
have a better right to rule America than

Tim litomta LAW.—The infidel doc
trine that was held by the sham Democra
cy, that there wat4 ro higher law than their
own enactments, is fast being abandoned.
Senator Hunter, of Virginia, lately made a
speech, in which he used the following
language :
"All Christian Churches and individuals
believe that the allegiance which they owe
to God, is higher than any obligation to
man ; and that in conflict between human
and Divine laws, you must serve God
rather than mail,"
The Democracy, if they keep on, will
aeon be on the Seward platform, which
they so bitterly denounced. Their In's
fortunes are bringing them to reflection.—
Hope they will go on improving, for it
gives ne pleasure to chronicle anything
good of them—a pleasure that we have

A SINGULAR Mitainnon.—At Paris
singular marriage was celebrated in the
chapel of the lintel des Invalids—that of

hands in the siege of Sevastopol, with a
young woman of some property. The
couple were engaged to be married before
the Zouave lett for Sevastopol, and when
he came back, so gloriously mutilated, his
betrothed declared she would keep her
word. Tho marriage was attended by
the governor of the hotel and his staff; and
by all the invalids. After the ceremony,
the cross of the legion of honor was pre
sented to the hero, in the name of the Em
peror, and a valuable present to the bride
in the. name of the Empress. The Zoo
ave had, besides, been admitted to the

_the inglori
ous result of the lust campaign, have.rous
ed a spirit of inquiry in England which
threatens to break down the barriers of
political' privilege, within which the aris
tocracy of that country have so long en
trenched themselves, and to open a path
to distinction to men of talent, irrespect
ive of title. Hitherto the principal offices
of government have been held by a few
aristocratic families and their immediate
dependents; and this has been tolerated
so long that the privileged few seem to
regard themselves entitled to perform the
ministerial functions by a sort of Frescrip
tire right. But their absolute unfitness
to cope with great emergencies, has be
come, of late, so glaringly apparent, as, to.
call forth the denunciations of the press,
and rouse the opposition of the people.—
The previous reforms in England took
the shape of gradual extensions of the
elective franchise, and the redress of local
grievances. The present:movement is
aimed at the privileges of the aristocracy,
and demands the introduction of the mid
dle glass into the higher councils of the
nation. That such ai change in spite of
opposition, will slfortly bu effected, wo
have not tho least doubt ; nor do we doubt
that the elevation of new men to stations
of political eminence will result in giving
a proportionate degree of liberty to the
people at large, and While it gives inceas
ed stability to the government, will infuse
new vigor into the administration of its af
fairs.
ENTIRE WEDDING PARTY PODIEND,—
The Petersburg Express contains a loiter
which states that on the 22d u1t.,11. B.
KANE, a lawyer of Scott county,Va., and
Miss SARAH, a daughter of Col. ANDER
80N,*Of the same county, were married.
On the next day,.a party was given at
the residence o f the bridegroom, at which
a large number of citizens were in atten
dance. Everything passed off with unal
loyed pleasure until a late hour of the eve
ning, when, after eating a lot of custard,
two or three complained of sickness;
then some twenty-five or thirty became ill,
and in a short time between forty and fifty
were sick, complaining of nausea, &c.—
Two physicians were soon in attendance,
and pronounced all hands poisoned, a
mong them the bride, who, with twenty
five others, it was feared, cannot recover.
At least so says the correspondent of the
Express, whose whole letter (dated at
Emory and Henry College) looks a little
suspicious. He adds that the custard was
analysed and found to contain arsenic, and
that no one is suspected, as the servants
partook of it and were also taken ill.
A recent number of the Petersburg
Express confirms the story, and states that
a Mr. Bishop has since died from the ef
feels of the poison, and that seven or eight
more were not expected to survive—a
mong them three of the sons of Mrs. Neal,
residing at Reek Creek, near clinch river.
A negro has been arrested, and we learn
that there is strong reason to helieve that
he or she was instigated to the act by a
white woman. The Abingdon Virginian
also announces the death of Mr Bishop,
but says that the occurrence was areciden
tal, resulting from a poisonous ingredient
put into the custard by mistake, to flavor it.
Shocking Came ofSulelde.
NEW Yonv, June 3.—Thomas Baily
Russum, of San Francisco, (formerly of
Baltimbre,) blew his brains out last night
in a house of ill-fame, on account of the
couriezan refusing to harry him. He was
wealthy, and has a wife and family in
California. Mr. Russum was formerly
Register of San Francisco, where for many
years he was highly respected. The cause
of this melancholy act was the refusal of a
beautiful prostitute, with whom ho became
enamored, th marry him. He' bad two
pistols with him last evening; the officers
secured one, when suddenly he drew
another and discharged the contents into
his brain, and falling headlong down
stairs, died in ten minutes' time. He had
threatened to commit suicide on account
of the girl refusing him. The coroner's
jury to-day rendered a verdict in accord•
ance with the shove.

tee appointed by the Shareholders in this affair,
to distribute the 100,000 Gifts amongst the
ticket holders, have deferred the distribution
until the bth of July, on account of there

Mr. Perham, ever anxious to meet the views of

as to those who have purchased tickets in his
enterprise. We commend the reading of his
advertisement to our patrons, and hope that
each and all will lend a helping hand to bring
the matter toan early and satisfactory eimsu
