DISVNIONISTS.
The Geszette charges that.. the -sentiment of
disunion exists in the Democratic party, and
hugs itself witV the ideit that the North must
rebuke the Sentiment. This is what • may
aptly be termed "the height of impudence."
There are some Republicans who think that
the Union - never will be dissolved for the
simple reason that it never has been. We
have no faith in their—assurances so long as
the direct, inevitable tendency of their course
is to produce the very result which they affect
not to fear. ; . The recent raid into Virginia
was the natural result of northern anti-slavery
teachings. - No sane man doubts this and-no
honest man denies it.' These anti-slavery teach
ings have been adopted and endorsed by the
Republican party. They are doing everything
in their power to create and excite a prejudice
which is fast ripening into hate, and when fra
ternal ties and the interests and sympatkies
which bind the two sections of the Union to
gether are severed, then they will separate by
a sudden and final act of dissolution. 'Who
is to blame for all this feeling of hate which
has been , engendered, if not - the Republican
party? They cannot mind their own business
and let the affairs of the Southern States alone._
They declare the "irrepressible conflict" be
tween the two sections. It is they who an
nounce their deterMination to crush out the do
mestic institutions of the South. If they
think the South is not as well prepared to
maintain a separate organization as the North
they deceive theniselves. The sagacity,courage,
wealth, soil, climate and generalresources of
the South cannot be underrated. The South
ern people are wise enough and brave enough
to maintain their own rights, and the Repub
lican party, , which has attempted, and 'is at
tempting, to trample on these rights, is solely
responsible for the sentiments of disunion
which exist in the South. Does the Gazette
expect, people to be villified, abused, have their
rights trampled upon,- and their persons and
property rendered unsafe, and yet maintain re
lations of " peace and amity " with those who
outrage all that is deer to them 7 The Repub
licans are playing a desperate game fur power,
and power they will have oven at the cost' of
the Union. Patriotism is not one of the virtues
which the Republican party can boast of: It
is ruled by fanaticism and an intense selfish
ne 9olden Rule is not'among the pre
cepts which it teaches.
THE CONDIWION OF MEXICO.
The present government of Mexico seems
to be about equiialent to no' government
at all. It is stated that a treaty between
the United States and Mexico has been rati
fied by the latter government. Juarez is
thr only PreSident of Mexico which the
United States recognizes. His is crdlellthe
liberal government, but beyond the city of
Vera Cruz,. which he at present holds, ho
has little territory to govern. Ilimmon
has the capital, the chief towns and nearly
all the territory, the army, the church, and
the money of the country. Juarez and his
government is daily growing more weak
while that of Miramon is gaining strength.
Miramon,treats Juarez only as a rebel and
an outlaw, and it is probable that the latter
will soon be*Compelled to yield what little au
thority he possesses. Mr. McLane is said to
have concluded a treaty with this claimant
of power which he, does not possess, and is
most unlikely to obtain. This treaty is said
to make important concessions to the Uni
ted States; but how the Mexican side of the
contract's to be kept we confess puzzles us.
It can only be made effective by the United
States by active intervention,—assisting
Juarez--and 'this is coMfary to our usual
policy. ,At present Juarez is literally p4wer
less in 1 , Mexieo. The course which the
Presidenl t in his Message will advise in ref
erence to Mexico is looked for by the coun
tryswith anxiety and interest. In all the
foreign relations of this government the
Mexican question is the most difficult. The
progress of civilization and the protection of
our own citizens would seem to demand
that we should at least exercise the authori
ty of protection, if not annexation, of a por
tion of Mexico to this Union, but how this
is to be accomplished by treating with :the
least powerful and least important of the
several governments with which the unhap
py Republicls at present supplied passes our
comprehension. If the liberals hopelessly
fall, as there is every reason to believe they
will, Mr. McLane's mission will have been
fruitless. The unselfish friends of national
advancement deeply regret the social con
dition of Mexico but no present prospect of
relief is offered, and least of all in this treaty.
DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY MEETINGS.
The Demcrats hold their primary meetings
to-morrow to'rbose delegates to a City Con
vention, to Tuesday next to nominate
a candidate for the malty. In the present
imbroglio among the Be Mean/3 in regard to
the Mayoralty, it is iMpo that we should
have a good man, and we hope cry Douro
crat in the several wards will turn._ ut at the
meeting to:riorreAv. " ,

THE RAILROAD DIFFICI'LTE.-TllO subjoin

_
C!
:DEC. 21
levelandHeraM, , in the matter of the pres
ent, difficulties of the l'ittlburgli, Fort
Wayne and Chicago Railroad, has by some
person or :persons, been indOced to give
currency to a variety of statements which
are erroneous in fact, and calculated to cre
ate a false impression where the real condi
tion of things is not known.
Fr. WAYNE, IND., Dec. 19th 1859.
Mr. Editor: Will you please correct any
wrong impression which may have been made
by an article in the Cleveland' Herald, com
pounded of falshood, silliness and wickedness,
to the effect that the Western Directors of the
F. Ft. W. & C. 'Company, were parties to,
and instigated the proceedings against the
Company in the Federal Court in Cleveland.
In my efforts—thus far successful—to main
tain poeseision of the road in Indiana and Illi
nois, I have been sustained by the Western
members of the Board, and I believe they are
unanimous with ono exception, thatthe Cleve
land:proceedings were unwarranted, and ought
to be set aside.
E. P. MIDDLETON 3; BROS.
For twenty-five years this firm have been
known throughout the States as dealers in most
excellent wines and liqours, in the city of
Philadelphia. Their place of business is No.
5 North Front street. They have constantly
on Land the best wines, brandies and fine old
whiskies, such as cannot be surpassed in the
market.
Gentlemen who may wish to replenish their
collars, and dealers who may wish to obtain a
supply of pure and genuine liquors, will find
that orders sent to Messrs. Middleton & Bros.,
will be most promptly and satisfactorily filled.
We commend this house to the trade through
out the State, as a sound, fair-dealing and reli
able one. They do not give you an article to
taste, and then fill your packages with an infe
rior one ; but what they sell may be relied
upon to be exactly what they represent it.
That there is nothing " bogus" about their
liquors we are prepared to assert in the most
positive terms—for we have tried them in
moderation and with - decidedly beneficial
effects. They have a fine article of old wheat
whisky, which is very pleasant to take, and
not in the least deleterous to the human con
stitution.
Cook and Coppie, after the, failiure of their
attempt to escape from Charlestown jai l ), drew
upi a statement of the operations attending
that effort, which has since been published.—
They declared that they received no aid from.
any person, whatever. The remains of Cook
arrived in New 'fork City on Saturday even
ing, ar..l were interred on Sunday, from the
the residence of air. Samuel: L. Harris, in
WilliamsbUrg. The Censistory of Dr. Por
ter's Dutch Reformed church, of which Cook's
brother-in-law is a member, refused to allow
the latter the privilege of holding the funeral
services in the church, unless upon a guaran
tee that the face of the deceased should not be
exposed . to public view.
Estimates for the Fiscal Year.
The estimates for the next fiscal year will
not exceed sixty millions of dollars, a reduc
tion of twenty millions as compared- with
Pierce's adminstration and about seven mil
lions less than those of last year.
It. It. Briggs, a former resident of North
Adams, Massachusetts, writes to the Trans.
cript:
"While I was living In. Adams, thirty five
years ago, I lost a dear wife, of whom I had
no likeness, and there was no likeness of her
in existence, to my knowledge. A few
months since, I wrote a letter to a man in
Columbus, Ohio, named Walcott, an entire
stranger to me, who is called a 'spirit artist,'
saying to him that I had lost my. wife thirty . -
five years ago, named Susan Briggs, of whom
I bad no likeness, and if hecould send me one,
I should be very happy, and would reward
him well for it. A short time since I receiv.
ed a likeness from Mr. Wolcutt, and I think
it to be a perfect one of my wife, and I am
not alone in the opinion. Others who knew
my wife think as I do of the likeness; and I
regard it as a better likeness of her than any
artist in this world could have taken when shin
was living. I have ascertained that my wife
died before Wolcutt, the artist, was born.
Notes Payable on Christmas and New
The fact, of the next Christmas and Now
Year's coming on Sunday, the usual holiday
celebration will take place the succeeding
Monday.. The fact is causing some little anx
iety as to financial arrangements, and especi
ally to notes, drafts, etc., maturing on that
day. As Monday will not be Christmas day,
it does not come within that provision of law
in some States, which extends theexemptions
in favor of Sunday to such holidays as Christ
mas, Fourth of July, etc. The Journal of
ammerce thus enumerates some of the diffi
culties that present themselves in reference to
maturing notes and bills of exchange. If the
day of payment fall on Monday, and the bank
is closed, legally, the payment can be enforced
on the previous Saturday, or the paper pro
tested. As a rule. most of the merchants will
pay such obligations on the Saturday, in the
absence of legal enactment; but if the note is
not paid on Saturday, it cannot then be pro
tested` and If not presented and payment de
manded on Monday, will the endorser be hol
den, and the protest (made on Tuesday) be
legal? It is clear, wo think, that where the
payment falls due on Monday, and the date is
not anticipated (as it should be) by a payment
on Saturday, the bank will bo bound to em
ploy a notary to make demand, and under re
fusal, to issue protests on Monday. The general
operations of the bank may be suspended, how
ever, and the business left. in the hands of a sin
e, clerk and notary, and this will be the course
merally adopted by the New York banks.—
here is another point not so easily settled.
In the cases above noticed, the merchant can
save himself and the bank all trouble by pre
paying his notes on Saturday. Not so with
sight drafts formardoki to the banks fur collec
tion.- These the merchant cannot anticipate,
and ' can make no previous position to
cover: If all his notes are paid on Sat
urday, and his store or office closed on
, opday, so long as that is not a legal holiday . ,
th ...nil or other collecting agent may call
with a ...• ht. draft,. and, ' finding no ono to
meet the .1. . :nd, must, for his own security,
issue &protest., :tofore, the rule with most
of the banko has tsleri s to hold over their CorreK
spondence unopened, than cutting off all op
Mortunity for difficulty with their city custo.
ars. The question is then presented, if a
draft thus lying unopened should not be paid
en its presentation , the next day, will the bank
be responsible for neglect of" due dilligence T"
This our most experienced bank officers
have been unable to decide to their satisfac
tion. Most of them heretofore have conclu
ded to run the risk, and not to open their let.
Core. A' fine, *preferring ;to , err, ,if at all,' on
the side of prudence, have kept a clerk to make.'
a nominal demand and protest all eight drafts
{got paid, but have retained the protests and de
stroyed them upon payment of the obligation
the succeeding day.
Telegraphic Enterprise.
Mr. Charles M. Stebbins and his asseociates
of the Western Union Telegraph Company,
have commended the construction of a tele
graph from St. LOT& to. San .Francisco. The
lino on the Eastern end has been .completed
for nearly three hundred - miles west of St..

ANECDOTE OF WASHINGTON IRVING
-A DAY AT SUNNYSIDE.
- It' was the day of Mr. Webster's funeral
,at Marshfield. It was one 'of the glo
rious days of October, when the mists of
Tappan Zee flung a veil over the charms of
the Rockland Hills, obscuring the landscape
of the highlands in that half light which
Dougherty knew so well how to j aint. The
Sun was warm and genial and the air balmy,
liniomnch that we adjourned from the par
lor to the porch. The conversation turned
upon Mr Webster—his life, his loss to his
mourning country. Thence it changed to
Mr Webster's compeers and the era of the
Republic in which they lived, and to a com—
parison with the preceding epochs, and
thence to prognostications and politics in
general.
Just then my eye was attracted to an
apple tree loaded with 'a precious freight of
bright'red apples, to which I quietly walk
ed, unperceived, as I supposed. I picked
an apple from the ground. It was very
_ood. I tried another. It was somewhat
• ecayed. I then threw some of them at
the sound, bright-red apples on the tree.
While thus busied. I heard a tenor voice
crying out: "An old man once saw a rude
boy stealing apples, and he ordered him tc
come down.'
Looking round, I saw Mr. Irving coming
towards me, to whom I replied: "But the
young saucebox told him decidedly that ho
would not." Mr. Irving rejoined: "Then
the old man pelted him with grass."
I replied: "At which the saucebox laugh
ed whereupon the old man began to pelt
him saying, I will see what virtue there is
in stones.
you've read it, you've read it," ex
claimed Mr. Irving, clapping his hands in
great glee and fairly running, in a dog trot,
to my side.
"I hope my guests will excuse rne," he
said, "but I could not refrain from coming
to you."
"Yet they were conversing on very grave
and interesting topics," said I, "and I won
der you could break away so easily to detect
a young saucebox stealing your apples "
"Well I must tell you how it happened,"
he replied. "To be sure the topics are
grave and patriotic, and all that, yet when
I saw you eating my apples from this grand
old tree, and trying to knock some down
- with the rotten apples spread about here,
it brought to my mind a circumstance
which happened to me on this very spot
some fifteen years ago. I had lately come
from Spain, and was building yonder non
descript cottage, half Moorish and half
English—an olla
,prodrida sort of thing—
about which I was excessively interested,
considering my work as grave and patriotic
a matter as the conversation down there.
I was watching the workmen, directing this
one and that one, least the idea of my fan
cy might not be realized, when, in turning,
my eye caught this apple tree, loaded with
fruit, (just as your eye did.) It was a day
like this,-one of our October days—our
Highland Octribetdays—such a one as lights
upon no where else in the world. And this
apple tree bore that year as it does not bear
every year, yet just like this. Well, I left
my workmen and my talk, ( just as you (lid)
and ate one of these windfalls, ( just. 9
you did,) and liked it, ( just as you did,)
and then I tried to knock some down (just
as you did.) Now while I was enjoying
these fine apples, (it was for the first time, )
"Just as I am now" I interposed. "Yes
yes," he continued. "A little urchin, such
as infest houses in building—a ragged little
urchin, out at the knees and outsit the el
bows--came up to me and said, sotto lx,'—
'Mister, do you love apples?" Aye, that I
do,' said I. ,Well come with me, and I'll
show you where are some better then them
are.' Ale said I; 'where are they 'Just
over the hill there,' said he. 'Well show
me,' said I. 'Come along,' said the little
thief, 'but don't let the oil man are us.' So I
trent with him and aide my own an;les.
Thus, you see how it happened that I could
not stay with the politicians." And as he
said this his whole frame shook with fun ;
and his face threw oil' the wrinkles of
seventy years. Geotrry Crayon stood before
me.
Dodglog Mee Creditors.
Ono of the " e.arlosities of debt " has recent
ly come to light in the English bankruptcy
Courts. The Scotch law, it appears, affords as
many iodides for fraudulent debtors as it once
afforded to clandestine marriages, so that by a
few title-simple proceedings, anybody who has
been a resident in that ancient Kingdom for
forty days, can wipe off all old scores and be
gin the world anew. The place which has
been to gentlemen in difliculties what Gretna
Green used to be to ardent lovers, is, it appears,
the Western Isles, off the coast. English
debtors run up to those latitudes, take up their
abode in the Isle of Mull or the Isle of Skye,
and remain there in seclusion for forty days.
That time-honored period having elapsed, they
notify their creditors in London or Liverpool
that " Brown or Smith, of the Isle of Mull,"
is about to absolve himself of Ins liabilities
before the proper Court on a certain day. The
creditor is quite satisfied that no " Brown or
Smith of the Isle of Mull," owes him anything,
probably never beard of such a parson, and
takes no farther notice of it ; and is astounded
to rind in a week or two, that " Brown of
Mull," is the identical 'Brown of the Strand
Holborn, who was largely indebted to him for
goods sold and delivered, and his release under
the Act, ho would certainly have vigorously
opposed. It Is thou, however, too late, and
he finds to his astonishment that when frown,
after forty days, designates himself as of Mull
or Skye, he designates himself with perfect
legal accuracy.
There has lately, however, boon an expose of
the practice in the case of the defaulting
banker, Stephens, which bids fair to consign
these pleasant retreats to the same useless ob
scurity as old Gretna himself.
Senator Crittenden.
Says a Boston paper : " Another of the an
dent lights of the United States Senate is soon
to go out. By the election of Mr. Breekinridge
from Kentucky, John J. Crittenden, the old
est member of the Senatorial body, retires
from a public service that has been most hon
orable to himself and most useful to the coun
try. Mr. Crittenden is now in the seveety
four th year of his ago. He entered the Senate
as early as 1817—forty-two years ago—al
though he then served but two years. It is a
singular fact that Mr. Crittenden has never
boon a member of the House of Representa
tives. Besides his different terms in the Sen
ate. Mr. Crittenden served thepublic as Gover
nor of Kentucky, and Attorney General un
der President Harrison, and also under Mr.
Fill more. With his retirement in 1861,wi I
disappear the land marks in the Senate of
the old Southern Whigs. John Bell, a or
/
thy compeer, has preceded him the present
year. Of those who remein that once acted
with him—Messrs. Toorreb - s, Pearce and Benja
min—none areetvfiw outside the Democratic
rank. Mr..•t l rittenden's succesor, Mr. Brock
inricloyes a man of snperior ability and char
acter; but wo cannot think him qualified in
'.y respect to fill hie position."
John Brown.
There is too much of John Brown in the
newspapers. Almost everything we road con
tains something about him—something that ho
said or did while living—something condemn
ing or oxhalting him. Why not lot him rest ?
lie endeavored to carry out an cronoous idea,
and hia. failed. Justice and 'patriotism de
manded his sacrifice, and be was executed.—
filo does not deserve to be canonized, and it is
not acting a noble part to denounce him now
that he is in his grave. The world is done
with him—lot him sink into oblivion. A.
higher tribunal than human opinion demands
an explanation of bib conduct while on
earth. Mortal judgment has been passed—let
him alone.

vor with which , the work has been recetved,has com

right (it being patented) to manufacture it. The object
of this trickery is merely to obtain. an opportunity to
