THE NENV DODGE.
Manufactured dispatches in abundance have
been published since the laying of the ocean
cable, from the President and the Queen of
England, but, being innocent, deceive nor
hurt anybody. In this progressive age it
has been discovered that the readiest method
to injure an antagonist is to write a letter,
imitating his style and applying it to probable
or real ciroumstances, -to make it wear the
face of truth—such as Mr. Buchanan's letter
to English. He had the right to address a
friendly letter to whom he pleased, and the
unsuspecting may imagine he really did.—
The letter was never written, but is still
travelling. So with Mr. Montgomery's le
ter to Enoch South for whisky for the Presi
deK This was done to injure a candidate
for Congress, and create the impression that
Mr. Buchanan drank whisky. The whole
thing was a fahricatio - n—a vile slander.—
Montgomery never drinks whisky, and be ir3
the last man the President would trust to buy
him any, if be required it. We have it from
'the best authority Mr. Buchanan has not
taken a spoonful of whisky since his return
fret England. lie even despises the use of
it in his friends. The next shallow pretence
to deceive is a letter, purporting to have been
written by Mr. Bigler to Secretary Stanton
of Kansas. We noticed it first in the Phila.
delphia Press, but considered it one of For
,ney'sjokes and paid no attention to it. We
find it republished in this city, and doubtless
it will be copied everywhere and believed un
til a denial plumps it out of existence. These
things are calculated to detract from the fair
fame of men, and the press is responsible
We despise such warfare.
TuE repudiation organ- continues daily to
beg pardon of its readers for introddeing its
rehash of abuse of the editors of this city.—
The gentlemanly editor of the Press, who
never descends to personalities, insists upon
classifying the editorial corps as "Dogs"
—every one of them ; railroad Presidents
"Thieves"';' Supreme Judges "Weak, cor
rupt officials." The cause must be tottering,
which calls forth such vulgar raving.
The Difference.
The opposition are ever doleful over the
I- fact that the expenditures - of the general gov
ernment increase from year to year, but they
say nothing abont the corresponding growth of
the country which-makes this additional ex
pense necessary. The official statement shows
that the approbriations this year exceed those
of-last year by four millions, and the opposi
tion make themselves very unhappy over the
fact that there should. be any increase at all.
Because the administration of President Bu
chanan costs more than that of President
Monroe, they would have us believe that it
.that it arises wholly from extravrgance. Let
us see. Here is a specimen of the causes
- which demand au increased expenditure, and
it well illustrates the fallacy and nonsense o
all this talk of the opposition aboutextrava

Who Own the Atlantic Telegraph. •
The projectors of the Atlantic telegraph
enterprise are now the principal owners.—
They are Cyrus W. Field, Peter Cooper, Mo
'sea Taylor, Marshall 0. Roberts, and Chand
ler White, all of New York. Each of these
parties have $lOO,OOO invested to the enter
prise, and one or two of them even more.—
With these gentleman are associated David
Dudley Field, S. F. B. Morse, and others who
have contributed largely to the final success
of the experiment, but are not so extensive
holders of stock. There are other parties, too,
in this country whose means are involved to
a greater or less ex tent, but no where equal
to those whose names are mentioned above.
A large share of the stock is owned in Eng
land, but these are the principal American
owners.
Tux Repudiation organ is very anxious for
a Convention on the 25th, to make arrange.
ments with the Know Nothings who meet on
that day in solemn conclave to put a ticket in
the field which shall demolish the Democracy.
We are decidedly in favor of the movement ;
it will the more certainly insure our success
this fall. The calculation has been alt along
to defeat the combined forces, but the Democ
racy will have an easy victory with a full
ticket against a divided and disorganized
party.
Propoied Extensionqut atlantic Tele.
We understand that it is ti.ontem
plation to lay in connealoi !he tlantic
telegraph, a submarine cable from Placentia
Bay to Sidney, Cape Breton, or to Portland
Maine. Preparations are being made to sun ,
vey the coast and ascertain the best mode of
carrying out the design. The submarine
cable is held to be much preferable to a land
line, inasmuch as it is not liable to damage
from the winter storms, which are always so
destructive to the wires suspended on land.
From Portland to New York will be the
next connection, and that will follow in quick
time.
KANSAS
The Washington Union is of opinion that
Kansas must now wait until she has a repre
sentative population before applying for ad
mission, and that the recent election, rejecting
the Constitution, meant that and nothing
mere, and says :-."Kansas accepts the polioy,
and by the solemn voice of her people declare
it to be the true policy for her future interest
and prosperity. Other Territories, being
notified in advance that their admission as
States will depend upon their population,
cannot complain of the enforcement of the
principle. Besides all this, the principle in
itself is right, and, had it been announced
and enforced heretofore, it would, in our
opinion, have saved the country from much
of the trouble, embarassment and bitterness
which has been engendered by the contests in
Kansas. Under its operation the various Ter
ritories of the United States will fill up with
population carried there by motives of trade
and interest."
The New York Herald is on,the other side
of the question, and says :—" We, however,
have no fears in reference to the issue in
Congress upon this anti-Lezompton restriction
of the late session. It was but a tub to a
Southern whale. No man voting for it should
have been silly enough to believe that this re
striction would or could be binding upon Con•
gress a single session, a single week, or a
a single day.
" Should the people of Kansas, therefore, in
a fair way, get up and present to Congress at
the coming session a new constitution, re
publican in form, we entertain no doubt con
cerning the action of Congress thereon. The
ease is so clear that Kansas is forever lost to
the South, and so clear too is the policy of the
administration, as indicated by the late
election, that there can be no difficulty upon
the subject. The new State will be admitted
at the first opportunity, and that will be the
end of the whole matter. The question being
thus completely settled, the public mind will
be as completely diverted from the subject as
from the question of a national bank, a sub
treasury, or the annexation of Texas. In
this view, for all purposes of political agita
tion, Kansas is already an ' obsolete idea.' "

well executed and without any accident.
—At Madison, Wis., a few days ago, there was
a swimming match for a silver goblet—the one
swimming the greatest length of time to take
the prize—no floating or swimming on the back
allowed. There were eight competitors, three of
whom swam for 5 hours and 37 minutes, and
then, none of them manifesting anylinclination to
give up, agreed to come out of the water togeth
er, and draw lots for the prize.
—The Pacific Mail Steamship Company is
now loading at New York, 10,000 tons of coal
for San Francisco, California, for all of which
ships have been chartered at $ll 50 to $l3 par
ton.
—The Alexandria, (Va.) Gazette says that
there is at present considerable activity in the
coal business at that place. More laborers are
much wanted at the wharves and in the yards,
and e.large number of men could now find steady
employment.
—Col. Henrydiiog, who fought as a privtae
at New Orleans, and who was on the electoral
ticket in Alabama, in G'll. Jackson's first cam
paign, died on the 13th ult., in Marengo county,
Ala.. He was for many years a member of the
Alabama Legislature.
—List Thuroday evening, some, boys in Cin

which one of their number had just bought, when
the weapon exploded and the ball entered the
heart of a lad named Hatmakcr, causing almost
instant death

sponding period of last year.
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
The following figures look badly for the

$76,531 28, of which $76,635 68 is on the
main stem, and $B4B 58 is on the Northwest

on the Washington branch earnings of
$925 98,.whieh, deducted from the two items
of decrease above noted, shows the net falling
off as before stated. The . gross revenue in
July of last year, from the three lines'of roads
amounted to $441,809 81, of which $17,-
251 09 was from the Northwestern line, that
being the first month in which any revenue
was derived from that work.
Stephan 11. Branch Again.
The New York New says that Branch
published iithe Aligator some time since,
slanderous and false story concerning a young
lady of 'that city--daughter of a clergyman—
who had spent some months in Europe. The
libel was brought to the knowledge of the
lady by some injudicious friend. She was
very delicate in health, and the suffering it
caused her sapped the springs of life in a
few days.• She died, another victim to the
foul power

THE DARIENESS DEEPENS ROUND
DIY PATE'.
The darkness dupens round my path,
And Wadies is the vault on high;
I hear the thunder voice of wrath
Staking the turrets of the sky;
Nor earth, nor sky, I may not ace,
When all is steeped in ebon night,
Save when the lightning in Its glee
Turns all the datkoned world to
In vain 'strain my weary eyes,
.And strive to keep the forest way,
Still denser shadows round me rise,
And haste but addeth to delay;
And E.r away I hear it now,
The whirlwind coming in his might,
Beneath whose tread the woodlands bow,
My soul deep filling with affright.
The rain comes dashing down at length,
As if an ocean buret in air ;
Lost, lost, I am; my spirit's strength
Fast yielding unto wild despair;
Reeling with terror, diZzy, blind,
How from these dangers shall I flee
What shield of safety can I find
From falling Hub, and crashing tree 7
The shrieking wind, tho driving ra'y,
'-' The heavy fill of riven tree,
The thunder on its lightning train,
The forest like a surging sea—
j Amid this elemental strife,
When Death is hovering ever near,
What Power can shield my threatea'd life
What liand shall keep my pathway clear 7
Be strong, 0 heart; bo not cast down—
() spirit be than doubly brave;
Though earth thus trembles at EL. frown,
Ws is the hand will save—
As they whcse path led through the see,
The harmless waters past,
Eo shall Ms mercy shadow thee,
And bring th e safe at Lost.
And lo! the tempest now is o'er,
The trees are sinking into sleep,
And quiet reigns where all before,
Was wild as is the stormy deep;
The stars look miller.: from on high.
Like eyes whose griefs are wept away ;
The path is gained, and onward I
Go forth rejoicing on my way.
Telegraphic Cable.
Everybody has something to say about the'
wire, and why shouldn't everybody—it has a
right to manopolise attention and extort sen
sation. Henry Ward Beecher has performed
his share; and makes his bow in the following
style:
"We are gathered to express our joy at the
apparent consummation of one of those enter
prises peculiar to the century in which we live.
Do you reflect that there are men living among
you to night that lived, and were not very young,
before there was a steemb at on oar waters ?
There ere men here that lived before they ruf
fled the water with their wheels, and since their
day and within more easy rernembranoo,
roads have been invented. I remember when the
first one of these was laid very distinctly. It is
within onr remeinbr ince that the telegraph was
invented, and by an honored citizen in this vi•
einity—all this earning far within the remem
brance of young men. But now this is not so
much an invention ao an application. We have
tried the air—we have learned that by stretch
ing wire from pole to pole we can gird the land.
We have come to the sea cost and said, Who
shall guide us across this great deep? Who shall
bridge it? And there, it was thought, would be
an end to our enterprise. But no ; enterprise
said, if we cannot balloon the deep, nor bridge
it, we can telegraph it, and so they determined
to do it, and what Yankees determine to do gen
erally is done. [Applause.] Scarcely does a
plant break from the ground sooner than this
enterprise showed—first root, then tennis, then
blossom and fruit. It is one of the most mar
vellous things that this has been done, and it is
still more marvellous that it has been done with
so few mistakes. Last summer the ships went
out and put their legs down ; this summer they
went out and put down the soles of their foot
They then went bank to take another start ; now
it is done, and the two continents are connected
by this chord. [Great applause ] I cannot of_
course—l shall not trespass much upon the
themes that are kindred to this fact ; I shall leave
them to those that are to do all the profitable
arid interesting speaking to-night ; I shall leave
this thoroughfare untrodden—l do not propose
myself to go over the wire. [Laughter.]
Wheat In Indiana
The Indianapolis Sentinel thinks that on
the whole, the crop of wheat in that State will
exceed that of last year. In Laporte county
alono it i= ^-`ruated there will be a surplus of
700,020 bushels for shipment. The grass
crop is fine all over the State. Oats aro une•
qual ; in some localities au average crop, while
in others there is almost a total failure.
Senator Douglas.
In reply to the welcome extended to Sena
tor Douglas by the citizens of Winchester,
Illinois, the following touching and beautiful
words were called forth from the eloquent
speaker:
Ladies and Gentlemen, Fellow-Citizens ; —To
say that I am profoundly impressed with the
keenest gratitude for the kind and cordial wel
come you have given me in the eloquent and too
partial remarks which have been addressed to
me, is but a feeble expression of the emotions
of my heart. There is no spot on teis vast
globe which fills me with such emotions as when
I come to this place and recognize the faces of
my old and good friends who now surround me
and bid me welcome. Twenty-five years ago I
entered this town on foot, with my coat under
my arm, without an acquaintance in a thousand
miles, and without knowing where I could get
money to pay a week's board. Here I made
the first six dollars I ever earned in my life, and
obtained the first regular occupation that I ever
pursued. For the first time in my life I then felt
that the responsibilities of life were upon we,
although I was under age, for I had none to ad
vise, with and knew no one upon whom I had a
right to call for assistance or for friendship.—
Here I found the then settlers of the country my
friends—my first start in life was taken here,
not only as a private citizen, but my first elec
tion to public office by the people was conferred
upon me by those whom I am now addressing
and their fathers. A quarter of a oentury has
passed, end that penniless boy:stands before yon
with his heart full and gushing with the senti
ments which such associations and recollections
necessarily inspire.
Expedition to Paraguay.
We i find the following in the New York
Herald, as a special Washington dispatch of
August 11th :
The vessels designed for the expedition to
Paraguay will be in readiness in about six weeks.
Meanwhile, there will have teen so much talk
about it that Lopez will be as well prepared for
hostilities or defense as he could wish, if indeed
ho contemplates either. If he is a man of sense
he will set himself to work to drive the best bar
gain he can with U.E. for a brisk trade. Para
guay is one of ' , the richest States in South
America in resources, and has only to bo made
accessible in order to their proper development.
The idea that Lopez objects to the opening of
the opening of the navigation of the Paraguay ,
because he wishes to monopolize his own carry
ing trade upon it, is, if true, one which a proper
agent could soon dibabuse him of by representa
tion of the vast increase in that trade which
must follow the admission of strangers who wish
to buy the produce of his country. If ho keeps
commercial nations out his trade will all be
among his own people, or those of the Argentine
Republic and Brazil, on the opposite sides of the
Paraguay and Parana, and can result in only a
very slow development of the resources of his
beautiful country. Everything, therefore, de
pends upon the selection of the proper sort of
person. This is a commercial age. Commerce,
in its most enlarged and comprehensive sense, is
king. No wars among civilized nations are
waged except upon . commercial questions, and
even commercial nations can only afford to use
the sword as the key with which to open up the
trade of the half-civilized countries. The wants
commerce demand the opening of the South
Amorican rivers. It Should be done peacefully ;
but it must be done, whether or no.
A Prophecy by Professor Morse
Vi'esnaloron, Aug. 10.—Prof. Morse, fifteen
years ago, in a letter to the then Secretary of the
Treasury, the Hon. John C. Spencer, gave utter
ance to a prophecy which has been fulfilled in
the complete success of the Atlantic Telegraph.
I quote , the following words :
di The practical inference from this law is that
a telegraphic communication on the eleotro-mag
netio plan may with certainty be established
across the Atlantic Ooean. Startling as this
may now seem, lam confident - the time will come
wheif;thie project will be realized."

The Chaalpioniaxlp of England.
It will be borne in mind that the late pugilistic
contest between Itt..inene Sayers and Tom Pad
dock, to decide the championship of Eogland,
took place some wiieks; since, when Sayers was
held the winner, having obtained this triumph
in a manner that proved him to be one of the
most extraordinary boxers of the day. Paddock
being compelled to succumb to his victo-lous
arm, Sayers retained his distinction of champion
of England, a title ho had honorably gained,
and with it that handsome and massive trophy,
the belt, in his memorable: contest with the . Tip
ton Slasher. The customary rule of handing
over the battle nosey at some sporting domicil,
was, in this instance, departed from. as the friends
of the champion, in admiration of his conduct,
wished for this ceremony to be performed in the
most public manner, and for the purpose the
Victoria theatre was engaged, and here, as may
be imagined, the sporting metropolitans aSsem•
bled to do honor to the occasion, the house being
crowded in every available part.
The champion was. introduced to the andienee

The Last of a Litstint - ulshed Ship.
Mr. H. C. Pratt, the contractor, is busily en
gaged in repairing Battery street, in front of
Wheeler's Gymnasium, with the wales and bet
tom plank. of the, famens - old sl)p Cadmus,
which had the distinguished honor of bringing
Marquis de L‘layetta to this country in 1824
The planks are to this day as sound as a plump
bolt, and would have lasted many years longer
This old ship is as indelibly , connected with our
country's history as the Mayflower, and the very
sight of her remains recalls a host of historioal
reminiscences of deep interest to every American.
It is instructive to pnnder en the progress of
our country since that old ship tossed the spray
aide with her bold, bluff bow, and spread h-r
wings to the winds as one bounded across the
Atlantic, to bear to a graleful people the distin
guished man whnse memory shares a place in
their hearts with that of George Washington.

vastnws of the strides we have made towards
national rank and power and wealth and impor
tance since the keel of the Cadmus parted the
yielding billows. Milltons of oppressed of other
lands find shelter and protection, liberty and in
dependence under those institutions that Lafay
ette helped to found, and, among others, thous
ands upon thousands of his own countrymen.
In no art have we advanced more rapidly than
in that of shipbuilding; and could the architect
of the old Cadmus look upon some of our
modern specimens of superb clippers, which are
the admiration of the world, his bosom would
bound with pride at the acknowledged superiority
of his countrymen in his own handicraft. It is
almost saddening to think that the remains of
the famous old ship, aro being laid for the pas
sage of carts and drays, that horses and cattle
will tread out the last fibres, of her teugh and
venerable old sides; and that men, as they pass
over the moulding planks, will do so unemasel :us
or unmindful of the place she once held among
the celebrities of our mero'nant fleetso.
