THE ELECTION IN 'KANSAS.
On Monday, the inhabitants of Kansas
exereised.tho right of determining whether
fhay will embrace the happy privilege of
being citizens of an independent Stab , tin
der. the Lecomptou eonstituti . oi with the
English amendments, and paying their own
eypenses, or playing out the game until
1z,60, about which time they will be anx
ious tr) have a finger in the selection of
President, and perhaps pout out of the
Union unless they get their own way. The
election hold on Monday in Kansas will not
settle the question of popular sovereignty,
but will give us breathing time, which is
very necessary, to rig new platforms and
torts new combinations for the coming fight
at least in the Northern States. The relief
will be welcome. We don't care a bawble
-how they settle it. If the Constitution be
adopted it will not La because the people
are at all la !eve with it, but because they
desire peace if it be rejected, it will nut
prove any thing valuable in favor of popu•
lar sovereignty, but rather an es.pressioh of
corner-lot man, slightly mixed by those who
are anxious tor a further distribution of
Uncle Sam's money, and unwilling to stir-
render pecuniary advantages.
There is still Lunch of principle underly
ing this contest, but it is out of Kansas,
and never was in it to any appreciable ex
tent. But the diecueeion of the doctrine in
Congress and among the people, has array
ed honest men and enlisted great intern
izeuce in antagonism. But it has nu right
to disturb die Iletoo,:raoy, distract the coun
try, much less be wade a test for any in

signed in a few weeks to avoid removal for
improper political conduct.
After that period' he warmed up in politics,
joined with the Americans and Abolionists,
and declared hostility to eVerything Demo
cratic. .1"1.1e city dcegates were instructed
against him. He is proud, dignified and
overhearing in his manners—unapproachable
by the commonality - of men. Those who
know him hest have the least regard for him.
These are his antecedents. To defeat him
with Judge Porter will be an easy and pleas

in the absence of the Kansas issue, and the

good spirits, confident of success, and are re

Democrats at this election. They are the
Fairfield, the Auglaize and the Lucas Dis

have at present, will give the Democracy a
handsome majority in the delegation. Last

The result of the election for United States

various speculations are made upon it. The

calculation, in which it claims as certain for
Lincoln, forty-tour Representatives, giving
Douglas thirtyAone. in the State Senate it
claims that Lincoln will have a majority of

Douglas on joint Lallot. On the other hand,

Gerrit Smith for Governor
The friends of Gerrit Smith, of New York,
are desirous the old gentleman should be made
Governor. At a large meeting in Madison
county ')f that ttate, Mr. Smith was called
upon for a speech. We give below an extract
which is anything but complimentary to the
Republican party. lle says :
The Republican party has disappointed me.
As you know, it came into power and I went to
Albany lakt winter I went to my friend Little
john—he was my ftl. He had reason to be.
I asked for a personal liberty bill. It was due
to the State, to the party, to our manhood. I
drew the bill. It had just two sections. It pun
ished any person who should assist in sending
any man into Slavery, Littlejohn acted nobly.
Though Speaker of the House, he held up this
Lill in caucus in my handwriting, and defended
it, but it was defeated. He then took it into the
Legislature—it was defeated there, too, by just
ten votes, and I was struok by the geographical
charaeter, of the vote. Every member from the
old Silas; Wright radical Democratic districts,
from St. Lawrence, Herkimer, Jefferson and Os.
wego counties, voted for the bill to a man. In
Seward's county, and in Seward distiots through
the State, the members voted to a man against
it. I then learned that an Anti-Slavery Demo
crat was more to be relied on than an Anti-Slave
ry Whig. I returned sad. I find our State to
day is a Slave State—that ,--we have no govern.
went, no security for the person. The Republi
can is infinitely better than any of tho other
parties, but it looks courage and conviction."

wriitea by John H. Mollhenny, Esq., one of the
talented and brilliant corps of American writ

communicating with the public. P.
Our correspondent is mistaken. Mr. Mc

The Police Force In London
Thirteen inspectors, 19 eergeants, and 23 con

Hanged, Not Killed.
Magee, the murderer recently hung in
Boston, was probably not killed, and possi
bly might have been resuscitated at least such
was the opinion of one of the physicians
who attended his subsequent dissection, bas.
ed on the long continued and regular action
of the heart.
Another case is narrated in the Britmh JPl
cirry, June 12, 1790, with the remark of the
editor," Casuists may amuse themselves with
settling whether the following action be rang
ed under the title of justice or humanity."
A young gentleman, who had studied at a
celebrated University, and having a strong pre
dilection for anatomy, took great pleasure in
attending on dissections. One evening he, with
many others, were anxiously attending on the
commencement of that operation on the body of
a notorious malefactor, who lay stretched out on
the table before them : I am pretty certain,
gentlemen, from the warmth of the subject and
the flexibility of the limbs, that by a proper de
gree of attention and care, the vital heat would
return, and life in consequence take place. But
then, when it is considered what a rascal we
should again have among us; that ho was exe
cuted for having murdered a girl who was with
child by him ; and that, trem he restored to life,
he would probably murder somebody else ; when
these things aro coolly considered, I own it is
mp opinion that we had better proceed with the
dissection.' With these words he plunged the
knife into the breast of the earnse mid preclu
ded at once all dread of future a •ia3tien or
hopes of repentance."
In explanation of the c
other similar oceorren

6 , • We Lwow, also, another liting very peouli
ar concerning the irritabaity of the heart, viz ,
that it is ruoro irritable on its internal than on
ita external surface, for if, instead of cutting
out the heart, we leave it connected with tiLL
body, seek out (as the old anatomist *era wont
t.,) do) the thoraoio dust, or pierce the great vein,
and blow a bubble of air into the heart, it pur
sues it from auricle to ventricle, and from van

" 'Thu:3 it is long after appal ell( drewaig or
other balferigion., before the pritteepte of life la
gone, and long after the death of the Lady, before
the heart be dead.'
" Sir Charles then shows how certain ani
male retain irritability in the heart days after
the body is dead :
" Dr. Gardner having left a turtle's heart ue
glected in a handkerchief, found it dry and 61kriv
ailed ; but by soaking it in tepid water, its
plumpness and contractility were restored.'
"Sir Charles Bell speaks largely upon this
phenomenon of irritability of the heart, etc.,
etc., which, if the sage Boston reporter of
the post mortem examination of Magee, the
murderer, will read, he will find that Magee
was legally killed by the hangman, and not
by the sealpels of the post mortem' oper
ators."

We copy the following notice from the (ie.

conductor whe is beyond all doubt one of the

Ellis V. Beggs, a native, and for many years
a citizen, of this county, has for several years
past been a popular conductor on the Pennsyl

mon run through with their trains from Pitts•
burgh to Philadelphia. Under this arrangement
the services of a number of conductors and
hrekesmen have been di)opensed with, but we
are gratified to know that Capt. Beggs has been
retained to run ono of the Express trains. The
decision of the Company in this matter sustains
the popular verdict, which has long since pro
nounced Capt. peggs one of the most gentle
manly, obliging and competent conductors that
has ever been employed on the Pennsylvania or
any other railroad."
Petticoat-lane an
_a geauday
Nearly one square mile, gutted. through with
lanes, averaging fifteen and twenty feet. from
wall to wall, is every day thronged all through
by a filthy, besotted, avaricious mob, including

and filthy Jews, with mouths full of obscenity,
blashemy, lying, and nasal slang ; and to make
up:the bulk, thousands of unwashed idlers, reek
ing from their lairs, with a goodly sprinkling of
real children of misery, seeking, by means of
the last shilling, to get shoes ft r their blistered
feet, or covering for their shirtless bacles,
you have the scene which the big walls of a few
leading thoroughfares shut In and hide from the
respectable part of the populace at the very me.
ment when the church belle are ringing for
morning service.
There cannot be less thou ten thousand per
sons there in the course of a Sunday morning,
for the crowd swells and boils over at every out
let, and the extreme ripples reach ao far as Ar
tillery lane, on one side, and to Aldgate pump,
on the other ; and what with selling and exchang
ing, and stealing, an immense amount of prop•
erty must change hands in the course of every
Sabbath morning. Truth compels us to say, that
though we heard many an awful oath, we did
not see one single case of drunkenness—so much
for the compulsory closing of the dark little
grog shops that abound there. Nor did we no
tice anything approaching a melee, though
small souffles were numerous enough. At every
few yards stands one of the City police, overaw
ing the mingled elements of discord, and by their
firm bearing compelling order, such as it le.—
Indeed: we feel assured, that abandoned for a
single hour by the police, Pettleaot lane and its
odoriferous precincts would more than realise
the most vivid imaginings of Pandemonium, and
indeed, it is little else than a hell upon earth.

If they loft, as intended, on the 17th ult., they
arc now on the fourteenth day out from Queens
town. In the last trial the machinery on board
the Niagara worked with great perfection, and
had everything depended upon that there would
have been no doubt of success, even despite the
inclemency of the weather. But the employ
ment of two vessels undoubtedly increases the
rkk and doubles the chances against the enter
prise. tf the attempt fails now it is not likely
that it will be abandoned, or that any other
company will uudortaa e It, for the present com
pany, it appears, are detertaiued to prosecute
the work under all circumstances till they suc
ceed. They are very wealthy, and are, besides,
too well aware of the ultimate profits which must
accrue from it, Besides, the Newfoundland
company have the exclusive right of lending on
the shores of that island, Cape Breton, &0.,
while a new one would be obliged to run the
cable from England to France, mid through
Spain to Flores, and from Flores to Cape Cod, a
distance of three thousand miles, and crossing
the very worst part of the ocean, according to
the diagram of the bottom, which shows high
mountain peaks and terribly abrupt declivities
all along that lino.
In all probability they will provide a lighter
cable - for the next trial—one weighing five hun
dred pounds to the mile—which could be stowed
away in one ship. A portion of such a coil has
already been manufactured, and will probably
form the Atlantic telegraph wire after all. This
cable would require new machinery, and might
be paid out almost as elaoli as a log line Let
us suppose 3,500 or 4,000 miles of such a cable
were put on the Leviathan, with proper machin
ery, and paid out at the rate of ten or twelve
miles an hour, the work might be accomplished
in eight days. It may be said that this rate is
too rapid ; but lot us look at it. The much
greater breadth of beam of the Leviathan
(eighty-six feet, we believe,) would enable them
to make coils of twice the diameter of those on
board the Niagara and Agamemnon ; and as the
diameter of the paying -out wheels could be pro
portionately Increased, the danger from rapid
running off would be about the same as on board
the Niagara, whore the question of danger has
never been raised, although the cable has gone
out at seven miles an hour. It is very likely
that the company will be forced to employ only
one ship
and this light coil in tho end ; and if
they do, we look upon the chances of success as
the best yet presented.

[O• DR. AVLAcNE'S LIVER PILLS.—When the pro.
prieters, Flaming Brat., of Pittsburgh, Pa., of this
invaluable remedy pm-chased it of the inventor, there was
no medicine which deserved the name, for the cure of Liver
and Bilious complaints, notwithstanding the groat preva
lence of these diseasea in the United States. In the South
and West particularly, where the patient is frequently un
able to obtain the services of a regular physician, some rem
edy was required, et once safe and eftectnal, and the oper
ation of which could In no wise prove prejudicial to the con
stitution. This medicine is supplied by Dr. liPLaue'a Liver
Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, as has been
proved In ovory instance in which It has had a trial. Al
ways benellcial, not a solitary instance has ever occurred in
which Its effects have been inArlon.s. The invention of an
educated cud distinguished physician„ it has nothing in
common with the quack nostrums impose 1 upon the public
by shallow pretenders to the medical art. Experience has
now proved, beyond a doubt, that Dr. DPlsine's Pill is the
beet remedy fiver proposed for the Liver Complaint.

—aided not a little by a perfect system of Medical M.:da
tion—has enabled me to aarive at a v d_'clel a
o, direct an sae
cred al course of treatment far the positive and radicalcure
of all diseases of the Throat, Lung s , and Air-Pasiages. By
Inhalation, the vapor and curative properties of medicines
are directly adreseed to the diseased organs and the
Inhalation of any
integu
merit.. I do not advise the ass of Medical
kind, to the exclusion of gemerai treztment ,
and although I
consider it a useful adjuvant in the proper
those fearful and often fatal diseaaes, yet deemmanagement i of
cessary that each patient should have the benfit very
rY
both i
geteral and local treatment. The success of my treatment
in the above diseases, and the high character of the Institu
tion over whPh I have eo long had the honor to presidar
too well known to need any eulogy or comment from me.
At the solicitation of many private and professional friends,
through whose philanthropic aid the above charity has been
long and liberally supported, and after due consideration, I
have concluded to make such arrangements as will bring
the btneflts of my experiments and treatment within the
reach of all, and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those
only who entered the Infirmary, or who were able to visit
me at my office. Hoping therefore that the arrangement
will give entire satisfaction, both to my professional breth
ren and the public, .I would respectfully announce in con
clusion, that Icon wombs consulledpersonally or by /du ne ,

used in the Institution, prepared to suit each Individual
case. Inhaling Vapors, Illed.ical Inhalers, dr., dc., will be

Include medicine sufficient for one month's use; also, In

of Medicine, and the balance $6 at the expiration of the
month, if the path nt be cured or is entirely satisfied with
the treatment. Patients, by giving a full history of their
case, and their symptoms In full, can be treated as well by
letter as by personal examination. Patients availing them
