T0e2ext Presidency. Already the Loco foc'o papers arc beginning to speculate in re gird othe next Presidency, and the. friends of the several candidates have commenced the usual system o( wire-pulling which will soon be in' full operation. ? The most prominent candidates in that party are, first, of course, the mighty Pierce, who having been once el ected for fainting in Mexico, has now the addi tional laurels gathered from the achievment of of Greytown to adorn his heroic brow, which alone must inevitably secure his re-election. Such splendid qualifications cannot, of course, be overlooked. Next, we have James Buchan an, at present United States Minister to the Court of St. James, and the same illustrious individual who once attempted to let the last drop of Democratic blood from his veins! Af ter Mr. Buchanan, cornea George M. Dallas, who gave the memorable casting vote in the Senate on the TarrlfT question, and for the pur pose of gaining friends in the South, turned traitor to his own Pennsylvania, and to every other Northern Manufacturing State ! Next, we suppose, comes Henry A. Wise, of Virgi nia, who was never thought of as a candidate, until since the recent election in that State. We don't think he stands much chance' of the Aomination, as his political friends have alrea dy got more than enough of him. Following Mr. Wise, we have Ex-Gov. Mabct, of New York, who chaiged the Government fifty cents for patching the !eat of his breeches ! Won if "Scratchy" couldn't get such a chance? Then we have Ex-Gov. Seymour of New York, Col. Butler of Kentucky, Ex-Senator Dick inson of New York, Atchinson of Missouri, LakeoI Ohio,and the great immortal "Stephen arnold doughus" of Illinois ! with a host of smaller fry, 'too numerous to mention.' We ought not, perhaps, to omit the name Ex-Gov. Bigler, as the editors of the "Orgin" .will doubtless hoist his name, considering him, as they do, not only fit for President, Lut for Pope ! Such, then, is the brilliant galaxy, from whence, doubtless, will come the next Locofo co candidate for the Presidency. That Pierce will be the man is not to be expected, tho' he relies upon the official patronage of the Gov ernmeut, and will no doubt be urged by all the office-holders and employees, Mho always know which side of their bread is buttered. But his Administration has been so utterly weak and contemptible, so pusillanimous and fickle, that he could not possibly receive the united votes of his own party, which fact is so apparent as to. render his chances for the nomination ut terly hopeless. But whoever the candidate may be, it be comes us to be prepared by harmonizing our forces, and modifying our platform so as to make it National. That we have all the.ele raents of success, cannot, for, a moment, be doubted, but if we continue to be cut up into factions with sectional notions and adrodating different isms, we may as well ."hang our harp on the willow." It will be useless to go into the contest, for certain defeat must be the in evitable consequence. We must unite upon a sound platform, that has for its only object the protection of our Nationality, ofour Religion, and our hearths, that will secure to us and to our posterity the blessings of civil and religi ous liberty, and enable us to transmit our glo rious Union unimpared, down to the millions who shall come after us, and' who maj- gather and rest beneath its broad a'gis, "till the last syllable of recorded time !" . .

The following is Marshall Pe lisser's telegraphic despatch, dated Oct. 1st. "A brilliant Cavalry engagement took pi ice on the 29th of September, at Konghill, five leagues north east of Eupatoria, in which the Russian cavalry, commanded by General Korf, was defeated by those of General Alonville. 6 guns, 12 caissons, and field forges, with the carriages, fell into our hands, with 160 prison ers, and 250 horses of the Uhlans.

Having to-day satisfied that deshe, I have witnessed with the greatest satisfaction the cordial and sincere empressineut which the in habitants of Moscow have sliown in their re ception of myself and all my family, a tradi tional welcome which Russia has always given to her Sovereigns. I charge you to expres8 my sincere gratitude to all classes of the pop ulation of Moscow, and to assure them of my good will. -My Lappiness would have been complete, if recent events had not dimmed the satisfaction of these sweet moments. "My order of the day to the Russian armies has already made public that after an unex ampled siege of 11 months, the garrison of Sebastopol, after having given unheard of proofs of courage and self-denial, and having successfully -repulsed six desperate assaults, has crossed over to the north side of the town, only leaving "blood stained ruins" to-the en my.

The broad doctrinal ground oc cupied by Disill O'Connell, when he afll.nr. ed that Ireland should be governed by Irish men, is precisely the same upon which we have always been found. . The doctrine is one th it appeals so strongly to the common sense of every sensible man, that the only wonder is that in a community like ours there should be found a single individual, born on American soil, who avows or obtains an adverse opinion. There is scarcely a nation upon earth where this doctrine is not fully recognised and acted upon. Iu the countries of enlightend Europe, as well as those of benighted Africa, the prin ciple prevails universally, and the occupancy of an office of honor, trust or profit, of any sort, ly a native of any other nation or coun try, would be an anomaly. In the United Staes alone has this universal principle leen discarded, and we alone may be regarded as thus violating what amounts almost to a law of nature. The character and complexion of our mixed population is the undoubted cause of this strange departure from a rule so proper and so necessary 'to the safety and ultimate prosperity of any n tion. The raj. id influx of foreigners from every section of the world, during the earlier period ofour national his tory, and the ease with which they have leen allowed to become legal citizens, entitled to all the rights a::d privileges of those born on the soil, have hitherto prevented the recogni tion aud adoption, as a national measure, of the doctrine that Americans shall rule Ameri ca. The necessity existing fir one or the other great political parties to .secure the aid of the foreign vote in order to carry out their plans has induced them altern itely to yield their better judgment to the prejudices of those whose assistance they sought, and this great foreign strength, thus vascilating from one side to the other, has managed thus far to stunt the growth of this natural principle of government aud prevent its influences from spreading toucu an extent as to become rec ognized and embodied in our Supreme Consti tution. The time, however, has come at last, when the vitality of this principle will no longer be restrained, but is bursting-all the Itouds that have hitherto kept it in obeyance. Its artributes possess such an endurance that its progress cannot be checked, and the re sponsc'it meets in every honest heart it ene t rates will soon render, its. triumph complete. It needs no spirit of prophecy to predict a pe riod in our national history, not now very far in the future, when all our executive'; legisla tive and judicial offices will be filled by men whose blood has drawn no nourishment except from American soil and American air. . - FvREinx Paupers "in Franklin Cotntt The Cvrsts of "Taxation.

Our town has. for the past twenty lour hours fx . m -iii the most intense excitement, occMuiied ty two ol the most appalling and unprovoked murdera on record, the whole object being, it is supposed, plunder. The victims are Dr. J. F. lladel. formerly health officer of Baltimore, but t,r the last three years a practising physician ol this city, and a young mau in his office, named Henry Graf. A German pedlar, lately Irom Pittsburgh whose name is not known, has been arrested, charged ' with ' the murder,; t and against whom the testimony . is so strong that he would almost be lynched if possession could be had of him by the outraged commu nity. . .It appears that on Monday evening the body of young Graf as found in the mountains, a short distance from town, bearng evidence of having been killed by a gunshot wound. The body was recognized and brought to towu, and on inquiry, it was ascertained that Dr. lladel was also missing, and inquiry was made of bis friends in Baltimore without obtaining any in formation; in relation to him. .In the mean time a German in-dlar was arrested on suspi cion of murdering Mr. Graf, ami on searching him the watch Hiid chain, packet book and clothing of Dr. lladel were found in his pos session, leaving no doubt as to his having met with the same late as bis unfortunate young friend. The murderer was arrested at 12 o'clock on Monday night, and the most intense excite ment existed until daylight this morning, wheu a large body of citizens started oi.t to search for the body of Dr. Ilud.-l. This search was continued until about 10 o'clock this morning, when the body was found in the mountains, hoiribly mutilated. He had been stripped naked, his head cut off from Lis body, and stabbed, besides the mark of having been shot through the back of the- neck. The head is still missing, and it is supposed that the murderer has concealed it in order to prevent the identification of the body. It appears that the German pedlar who has been arrested on the charge of leing the -pcr-letrator of this horrible massacre is a stranger in Cumlerlaiid, and has been boarding at a fanner's house by the name of Steel. ne .r town, for some days past. On Sunday morning, between 9 and-10 o'clock, this stronger and the doctor were seen going over the bridge in the direction where the latter was murdered, and Mr. and Mrs. Steel say that this man cal led and got his gun a'ont that hour, and it is believed he enticed the dotor out by telling him some one was very ill, and. shot him through , the back of his neck, as ' his coat, found in the possession of the. supposed mur derer, had the mark of a bullet through the collar. j - After murdering the doctor, it is supposed he returned to Steel's, as the latter says he brought his gun back alout no"on, and imme diately started towards Cumberland. He was next seen in the doctor's office, in Cumberland by a gentleman who called there to inquire for the doctor. Graf was there with" him, and on the gentleman's inquiring fur the doctor, he was told by Graf that he was out in the mountains, and had met with an accident hav ing fallen in the water. It was supposed that the murderer bad told Graf this tale and that the doctor had sent to him to bring him some dry clothes, The murderer and Graf were seen in the afternoon going in ihe sime direc tion Mr. Graf carrying a bundle with him. Mr. Steel alse says that this man,, and Graf came to his bouse, and the man got his gun again, and they went on up the mountain to-, gether. Two other gen Iemen also say that tln'y passed them together on the mountain, and five minutes afler heard" the report ;Of a gun. . The body of Graf was found with a gunshot wound in the back, and he had !eon beaten over the bead," it is supposed, dying in a fVw moments. The accused returned the gitn and the bundle which Graf had with him, to Steel's ag iin. and left them there. Ills name is un known. Further Part toularsTha Head of Dr. lladel Found. CcMBKRLANr, Oct. 16. 3 P. M. The search for the head of Dr. lladel has been continued throughout the day. and a narty h ;v- just ar rived having foundtho head buried s -me dis tance from where the body was found. It appear- that the German arrested was seen in Dr. Hadel's office on Saturd iy . even ing. When arrested there was found in his possession the doctor's gold watch, bis seal ring with his name upon it. together with all his clothing, books, &c. He acknowledged the stealing the goods from bis office in Sun day night, but denies Having seen or murder ed the doctor and Mr. Graf. The supposition is that, af ter having murdered the doctor, 1 e enticed Mr. Graf out and murdered him also, in order that be might more easily rob the of fice, as both of them nsually slept in the room over the office, Mrs. lladel and her children being absent on a visit to their friends in Bal timore. The accused had in his possession a large number of books and valuables from the office. A Mr. Dawson, who is here from West Alex ander, recognizes the prisoner as an old offen der. He says he was imprisoned at that place for robbing a store, but broke jail and made his escape to Pitsburgh. where he stole a horse, and was re-arrested and brought back to West Alexander, and succeeded a second time in breaking j.iil and making his escape. He Is now heavily ironed, an I every prec 111 tlon will b taken to prevent his escape from the punishment that his bloody work demands.

One ol the Grand Jurors was engaged with Clark in the attack ou M Crea when the latter shot him. Notwithstanding this fact the Judge overruled every motion for defendant, and al so refused to sign a bill of exceptions, or ex plain by what rule be selected the 16 Grand Jurors. The Grand Jury was then sworn and the Court adjourned. Next morning Le compte secretly added three more to the jury. On Thursday afternoon the Grand Jury came into court for instructions iu the M'Cre case. Instead of publicly instructing them the Judge sent them back to their room, and del egated R. R. Rees. the Chairman of the Ruf fian mob that attacked Philips, to instruct them in their duties. . Being still divided, they again forced their foreman to lead them into Court. The foreman, who is one of the fire eaters under Stringfellow, Atchison & Co.. was exceedingly angiy at their obstinacy, and as they came into court exclaimed, "They can't agree ; three are for a presentment for murder, five for m n slaughter, and eleven against finding any bill." This announcement produced a great sensation in Court, and the Judge, without instructing the jury that in such a case they should return tho bill "igno red," sent them back "to their room and caus ed other business to bo brought before them. A majority of the jury, however, being in fa vor of ignoring the bill against M"Crea refa sed to act upon any other business until his case was finally disposed of, and therefore re turned again .and again into court without ma king any presentment. This was continued till Saturday, when the Judge, perceiving that he, to go ou with the business before him, must do justice to M'Crea by giving the jury p'roper instinct ions, dismissed the Grand Ju ry, and adjourned the Court until the second Monday in November. Such an adjournment is not legal, being authorised by no statute, and is, in fact, a dissolution of the Court. As such it vas doubtless intended, in order to de tain M Crea in prison until next spring, that another effort may be organized to pack a Grand Jury. The baseness of the Judge - has not been unobserved, nor will : it pass without notice. A petition will be presented to the President praying, for his lemoval on the ground of corruption and imbecility in office, and thfMr is not a single attorney of respecta bility in the Territory who will not sign it. When this man came to the Territory the people looked upon him with hope and confi dence ; but ever since he sold an extra-judicial opinion for an-interest in the proposed lo cation for the Capital, public opinion has has tily changed toward him. Since his encour agement of the ruffians of this neighborhood, by showing a disposition to frown down all cliarges brought against them, the citisens of tho town have fonnd it necessary to appoint a special police, and the greater part of the ci tizens are oblige 1 to carry arms to defend themselves from outrage. t.

America is now the only country in the world capablo of supplying the wants of Germany. Notwith stiuding the present necessities of the coun try, the emigration to America is at a very low scale. There are two reasons for this : Th war has in a measure emptied France, and even England partly, of young men, aud espe cially of those belonging to the working class es. The Germans, instead of crossing the sea, find it more advantageous to emigrate to neighboring countries, where their labor is wanted and well remunerated. The other rea son is to be found in the American party movemont. which the Gerinau papers make the best of, in order to divert the stream of emigration from the United States." Is There a Foreign Parti ? Tuesday's doings have answered this question, with an emphasis that will never be forgotten. Thou sands of moderate and careful citizens, who have heretofore disposed to -receive with great allowance, or absolute" indifference, the fre quent warnings of the American press, as the mere exaggeration of partizanship, have been suddenly startled and astounded into both at tention and conviction. No mau in his senses can hereafter pretend to doubt the existence of a powerful, thoroughly-drilled and thoroughly-organized foreign Catholic party in the Stato of Pennsylvania, whose cohorts are ready to march en masse at the bidding of their leaders, and to neutralize, by their farudulent and illegally-obtained papers, the votes of the nafive freemen and citizens of the soil. Know ing and feeling this, who can doubt the conse quence of such knowledge f We regard it as truly fortunate something for which we ought to be thankful ihat this all-essential and one great act in the political position of the coun try, has been discovered this year, instead of next.

Every ihii j. wi quiet for about an hour after the polls were opened, when a number of persons, led on hy Country Thompson, mad their Hj-peaiance, and attempted to take possession of the p.l!s. This demonstration aroused a Fpirit of re sistance on the part of the Americans, aud ti e attacking party was repulsed, Thompson, Ben jamin Eccleston and others of them hiving been severely bruised. After this disturbance matters were very quiet till about -2 o'clock when a number of persons, of whom Thomp-. son and George Konig were the leaders, ccm menced an attack at the corner of Fremont and Saratoga streets, two squares dist int from the polls, which resulted in the ahoot '.ng of several jeons. The origin of this disturbir.ee we could not learn, but as soon ns it was di.covered, the High Constable who was present at the polls with about thirty of his subordinates, sent a nuniWroftlieifhcerstoqu. il the rir-t.

When near Green street Konig ran. into a house and was taken into custody iy t;W :!! cers who were conveying-him to the "sutioji house when it was discovered that l.e had t-ecn shot, a ball having entered his back above ti-.o hip joint which penetrated through his b-.iy. He was taken to the Western station Lousu and subsequently removed to his residence in the Second Ward. He is considered to ba dangerously wounded. At the time of Li ar rest, a large bowie knife was removed from his person. During this riot a man named John Clark was shot in the leg below the knee ; the ball was extracted, and he is now considsd out of danger. John Gowan was shot in the left side. He is not cons dered to be dang-ronsly-injured. Alexander Kutherfoid was slightly injured by a ball striking him on the boot. A colored wom-in was seriously wonuded liiviii been shot in the face during the firing o thi street. Several other persons were slighliy injured. . The new of this disturbance attr .cte l :.er- 1 sons from the various parts of the city, ;o i in a short time a crowd of serir il thouii-1. 1 assembled and remained on the spot out ! n j closing of the, polls. There wore no lurLiur riotous proceeding. Many extriug tiii va ries were circulated in reference to the dis turbance, and it is almost imposibL' to all the facta as they occurred. We were on the spot before an J after the ri. ot, and it gives ns pleasure to say th.it the . people of the ward generally conducted them selves in. an orderly manner. The scer-es of disorderly conduct were generally confined to that class who came from different wards, del-. egated it may be, to fight for the rival pnrties.

For the uninitiated we i'.l, ftate that yesterday morning an a;plic.i:o:i was made by the counsel of Passmohe Wil liamson to Judge Kane, to allow the reading and filing among the records of the Court ot" an affidavit of Williamson. In replv.tl.e Ji-.ilg-j. intiiu ited that they could tke a rule to show cause why anoh an affidavit should not l.efilyd, Tho CQHpst'l desired the Judge to sy if bo--declined to entertain the motion as made by; them, whereupon the Judge repeated his for- mer declaration, They again pressed their; original motion, when the Judge peroinptori-T ly directed a jnry to be empannelled in in ano-v ther cause, and: the counsel ot Paasmore Williamson, engaged in their legitimate cal--. ling, were thus unceremoniously but eflVcta-. ally turned out of Court. Those who recol lect or will refer to a certain passage in the recent opinion of judge Kane on the petition1, of Jane Jonson,-will readily appreciate the higu handed conduct of Judge Kane on this occasion, and understand what bearing it ronsf necessarily hive on the case. We think that. .Mr.. Williamson's counsel owe it to him. and? to themselves, as well as to the community, to give immediate publicity to the contents of this affidavit, in order that this monstrous -desecration of law and prostitution of justice may meet with the fate it merits and must in- , evitably receiTe.-rrSnn. Heroism r a oa in the Crimea. The foli lowing account of the exploits of a dog in the Crimea, which we translate from the Gazette of Trieste, surpasses everything heretofore re-; corded of the devotion and bravery of this no-. blc animal: . "A great sensation has been caused in thef camp of the allies by the heroic deeds of a dog belonging to Colonel Metmann,rf the 7Sd re-c giment of the line. On the 16th of August;, d iring the battle'of the Tchernaya, the quad-, raped broke his chain, fought inthe ranks of the army, saved the life of a sergeant and -a ' soldier, "and took three Russian prisoners.-? A ball struck his foot, but tbe woundonly-. embittered the animal the more. He tbrew himself upon a Russian officer, flung him' to the ground, and dragged him prisoner by the' coat collar to the French. A phyaician ha bound up tbe wound, and the four-footed h-r-is convalescing. He will- probably receive, seme mark of honor, as another dog in the English army has been rewarded with a medal' for his devotion to his master." ;Tbk Elections Still to Come in 1855 Louisiana votes on Monday, .November a. fot.
