    Arrival of the U. S. Steamer Princeton.
Boston, July 17.
The United States' Steamer Princeton,
KnFle. commander, arrived at this port this
forenoon, having- left Naples the 5th of
June. She touched at t ayal, and sailed
from thence on the 2d of July.
The Princeton left Naples on the 5th of
June, and spoke frigate Constitution oil

all well. . . . - . '
The Princeton arrived at Leghorn on
ihc 7th and sailed on the 12th.
The Austrians had quiet possession of
r lorence and Leghorn.
Field Marshal Redctzky was at the lat
ter place, and was visited by Commander
Englc, and the officers of the steamship,
who were received with distinguished
consideration.
The Austrian troops at Florence were
under the command of Gen. Dasprc, and
the Florentines were paying Court to their
conquerors, who appeared to be enjoying
themselves.
Marshal Kadctzky wa3 received at Leg
horn with much enthusiasm, which was
unexpected by the foreign officers, who
had heard the boastings of those who de
clared themselves of the Republican party.
Capt. Englc has been in Italy from thp
commencement of the late troubles. He,
with several of his officers, were in Rome
for 11 days after the commencement of
hostilities by the French.

One Hundred and Fourteen Lives Lost
Gathering Tempest in France.
The Caledonia Steamer arrived at Hali
fax on Thursday afternoon, rather over
due, and by steamboat and express to St.
Johns, we have the news despatched by
Telegraph from that place on Friday af
ternoon. The vessel will reach Boston on Satur
day at noon. She brings 45 passengers,
exclusive 18 survivors of the passengers
of the barqe Charles Bartlctt, run down at
sea.
This melancholy disaster took place on
Wednesday afternoon, June 27th, about
700 miles westward of Cape Clear. A
dense fog prevailed at the time. The
Cunard steamer Europa, from New York,
bound for Liverpool, steaming under full
head, ran into the barque Charles Bart
lctt, from London, bound for New York
with emigrants. '
The wreck of the barque was so com
plete tnat she went down in three minutes,
and shocking to relate, out of 15G souls on
board 114 went down with the vessel!.
The Charles Bartlctt cleared from Lon
don with 132 passengers, chiefly emigrants,
and a crew of 11 persons. The Captain,
Mate and ten of the crew, in all 12; and
30 of the passengers, making the meagre
aggregate of 42 souls, which were saved
out of 156.
It would seem incredible that such a de
plorable occurrence could take place at
open sea at daylight, and neither party to
the collision being culpable. Yet the Eu
ropa is acquitted of all the blame not
only by her own crew and passengers,
but by the survivors of the ill-fated barque,
and by the unanimous voice of the British
press and public.
A subscription for the unfortunate im
poverished survivors of the disaster was
set on foot among the Europa s passengers,
which amounted to jC352 sterling, to
which the proprietors generously add.ed
xzu on the ,uropa s arrival.
The Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane
Society voted a gold medal to Mr. S. B.
Forbes, a passenger of the Europa, who
on the occasion of the collision acted with
the most generous and astonishing gallan
try, succeeded by his recklessness of dan
ger, in rescuing many persons from a wat
cry "grave.
The Europa sustained no material dam
age Irom the collision. " "
THE DOWNFALL OF KOME.
On the 30 th ultimo the Constituted As
acmbly of Rome finding that further re
sistance to the assaults of the French ar
my would be vain, and that the further
cflusion of blood would be fruitless, deter
mined to cease hostilities, and virtually
7 V . t . v . . ...
surrendered mc internal uity to the besieg
ing army.
On the 5th inst. an official notification
was made to the French Constituent As
sembly that in consequence of an arrange
ment concluded by Gen. Oud:not and the
Roman Triumvirate, the gates of Pavolo,
Portcsca, and San Pancranzic had been
thrown open to the French troops who
were advancing within the inner walls.
Measures were taken for the immediate
occupation of the city by the army, which
would be made complete, it was expected
with perfect order and quiet.
This communication produced a pro
found censation in the French Chamber,
silence attested the grief and pain, which
were the prominent emotions.
A correspondent writing from Paris the
latest date says: "Just as the Bourse was
closing it was stated positively that the
Government of Louis Napoleon had re
ceived a telegraphic despatch announcing
the entry of the French army into Rome,
and the withdrawal ot the iorccs ol Ocri
baldi. The French were received with
acclamation by the people. QThis is. the
French Uoits account.
FKANCX ANL HOME.
The Lcgklalivc Assembly at Paris has
brm the s:crin of -much turbulence, rc-
muujhIiom, !i.l bickniii": throughout
week. The despotic character and spirit
which mark the movements and policy of
the government have been steadily opera
ting to effect a union between distinct and
various sections of the Assembly not here
tofore animated by friendly dispositions, j
They arc manifestly drawing into a com-
pact opposition to the Ministry of Odillion
Barrot in support ol Republicanism, .which
they conceive is seriously menaced by the
administration., ;. "
The division of Geribrldi had been con-
ducted to Civiti Vccchi, where they would
lay down their arms. QNoble fellows!
they would not yield them on the theatre
of their brave and glorious resistance where
they ceased to light when deprived of the
support of the Assembly.
Two divisions of the French army would
be lodged and maintained by the Roman
Government.
The French funds rose at the Bourse 1
per cent.
Just previous to the receipt of the deci
sive intelligence from Rome, Gen. Bcdeas
had left Paris, charged with authority to
take command of, the army ..in Italy, and
Gen. Oudinot'was ordered home in dis
grace. ;
Arrangements had also been made to in
crease promptly the force in Italy to 50,-
000 men. But, immediately on the re
ceipt of the news of the fall of Rome, of
the surrender to General Oudmot, a tele
graphic despatch was forwarded to Mar
seilles, ordering Gen. Bedcas on his arrival
there to await fresh instructions from this
Government before proceeding to Rome.

A letter dated Corpus Christi, July 3d,
contains the following intelligence m re
gard to the Indians and the Sierra Madre
revolution:
A letter was received here yesterday by
express from Laredo, giving the important
intelligence that a train of IT. S. wagons
had been attacked between San Antonia
and the Eagle Pass, twenty miles above
Prcsido Rio Grande, and thirteen team
sters killed,- but one escaping. The In
dians took off all the mules. A company
of Hying artillery arrived at Laredo on their
way to Lcona, but on the 27th ult. they
were ordered back to the Rio Grande city.
The citizens of Laredo, however, persua
ded the officer in command to remain
there until an answer could be received
from Gen. Harney, to whom an express
had been sent with a request to have the
company permanently stationed at Laredo.
The writer says: "Our neighbors on
the Mexican side of the river (Rio Grande)
arc in a state of Great excitement. Pa
rcdes has pronounced for Santa Anna.
The Mexican troops are all ordered away
from the line, and the National Guard has
been ordered from the frontier to Victoria.
A revolution is about to break out, having
for its object the declaration of indepen
dence this side of the Sierra Madre.' I
believe the above news to be authentic.

The Corpus Christi Star of the 30th,
gives us the following information in re
gard to the Indians:
"The latest news received from Lieut.
Walker states that he was closely pursuing
the Indians, having been seen beyond the
Sulphur Springs, and from the freshness of
the trail he thought he was quite nearto
them. His horses were pretty well tired
out, but the men are represented as being
in high spirits at the prospect of speedily
overtaking the savages, and expressed
their determination to follow them on foot,
should their horses give out. On Satur
day last a party of nearly one hundred In
dians made an attack upon the Rancho del
Alazan, killed one man, a Mexican named
Miguel Bocanegra, and three horses, and
drove off about twenty-five horses and a
bout one hundred head of cattle. The
major domino of the ranch, Bias Falcon,
narrowly escaped with his life; and after
pursuing him nearly to the house, the In
dians sat down within full view and quiet
ly cooked and ate their breakfast. . As
soon as they left, information of the out
rage was sent to Tolosa, where a party of
twelve rangers, under Lieut. Aikcns, were
stationed. These immediately started in
pursuit, but, through a mistake of their
guides, they missed the trail and returned
without seeing the Indians."
The Frontier. The Star says, wc
learn that much dissatisfaction is felt,
throughout all the Northern provinces,
with the present restrictive laws of Mexi
co; and that the decree declaring Matanio
ros a comparatively free port, had caused
a deep feeling of discontent in both the ci
ties of Tampico and Vera Cruz.
TheMails. The Star has an article
in regard to the management, or rather
mismanagement of the mails in Texas.

paratively valueless. What made their
own position more disagreeable, was the
fact that any member of the Spanish A

Louis Kossuth.
LEADER OF THE HUNGARIANS.
The Hungarian war has been, for the
last six months, the favorite field for abso
lutist calumnies and English misconcep
tion. The aristocratic and monarchical
nation of the Magyars has been alternate
ly described as a horde of blood-thirsty
communists, and then as the Orangemen
of Eastern Europe, fighting in the name of
liberty to consolidate an odious ascenden
cy over the mass of the surrounding popu
lation. The plotting intriguer, Jella
chicii, appears as the champion of an op
pressed race, and the faithful servant of a
betrayed empire. The Governor-President
of the kingdom of Hungary is spoken
of as the chairman of a committee ol
Public Safety. But perhaps the most
singular mis-representations have concern
ed the personal qualities of Kossuth.
Even observers, who cannot be charged
with a spirit of intentional detraction, have
dwelt so exclusively, cithei on single ele
ments of his character, or on such as arc
utterly foreign to it, as to give, upon the
whole, a most incorrect estimate of the
man. M. de Lancsdorff, for example,
in the Revue des Deux Mondes, speaks of
him as a revolutionist of the latest Parisian
fashion. Another writer sees in Kossuth
only a fanatic, endowed with strangeener
gy, and a marvellous power of stirring, by
his eloquence, the passions and hearts of
multitudes. Such energy and faculties
Kossuth undoubtedly possesses; but
through his whole life they have been
subordinate to the most temperate, discre
tion, the most far-sighted patience, the
most practical and conscientious industry.
Louis Kossuth, then a young man of seven
or eight and twenty, was selected in the
year 1837, by a noble Magyar lady, as
the representative of her seigneurie in the
Hungarian Diet. In that capacity he
transmitted periodical letters to his patron-;
ess, with an account of the proceedings in
the Assembly. The want of any commu
nication by the press gave great impor
tance to these documents. They were
circulated from hand to hand, copies were
at first multiplied in manuscript and after
wards in lithograph. The reputation of
the young jurat s epistles had already ex
cited the suspicion of the Austrian author
ities, and this last step gave them an op
portunity ihoy were looking for. The
lithographed sheet came under the denom
ination of a newspaper, and unlicensed
newspapers were prohibited in Hungary.
Kossuth was arrested, and passed two
years in prison waiting for his trial. In
1839 he was tried, and (. sentenced to one
year's additional imprisonment. In 1810
he stepped from his prison to the head of
the Magyar opposition in the Diet, ins
next eight years were passed in a steady
struggle on his part at once to repair the
gaps which inattention of the lapse of time
had permitted to deform the chartered lib
erties of the Magyars, . and at the same
time to weld together into one homogene
ous nation, the various races dwelling on
the soil of Hungary. .... His journalistic mis
haps had by this time borne their fruit.
On quitting 'his prison, he at' once com
menced a daily journal, the Pest Ilirlap,
and ln snlie of seizures,- proooeutions, and
the Austrian police laws, it forced itself
into circulation, and was continued under
Kossuth's ; personal direction, till the be
ginning of last year. Kossuth's influence
was looked on with jealousy by more than
one party in the Diet. Besides the regu
lar supporters of the Austrian government,
he was thwarted by the wealthy and pop
ular Szccheny, and by the ultra.patricians
of exclusive Magyarism. Szechcny was
familiar with the political learning and
most advanced liberalism of Western Eu
rope, but he lacked the high moral faith
which gives its political element to Koss
uth's character; and while the latter was
bent on educating his countrymen for free
dom, by the foundation of schools, the or
ganization of municipalities, and the con
cession of gradually extended franchises,
Sezchcny grudged whatever funds or acti
vity were withdrawn from the task of for
warding the material civilization of the
country. On the other hand, the cham
pions of the old Magyar ascendency con
tested every step towards raising Croats
and Sclovacks to a level with themselves.
But Kossuth manfully struggled on, and
when the great events of last year broke
ouf, had scrurcd ilio hcary co-operation
of all fractions of the national party. Nor
had he met with less success in bending
them to his own wise and patriotic views.
By giving all the population of the villages
a share in the nomination ot "the notary,
he had paved the way for a general scheme
of I election by two degrees. Political
privileges were extended to all Hungary
and her dependencies, without distinction
of race or language. The Serfs were se
cured in the exercise of the worship of the
Greek Church. But Kossuth s crowning
glory and most fortunate achievement was
to propose, as Finance Minister in the first
native Hungarian Ministry, the abolition
of all seignorial rights, and the payment
by the State of full compensation to the ex
propriated nobility. The probable tactics
ot the Austrian government weie thus an
ticipated and checked. , In Gallicia that
government had not blushed or dreaded to
appeal to the most profligate lust of plun
der, and to arm the peasantry in a servile
war against their feudal superiors. Ihis
very year its organ; the Vienna Presse,
announced that "the way to govern Lom-
bardy is to rum the rich, a declaration
which was appropriately followed up by a
decree for the issue of 80,000,000 assig-
nats, and by Marshall Radetsky's threat
of indemnifying the poor of Malin out of
the estates of the Litta s and the Borro-
meos. in the same spirit, bchlich and
Jellachich advanced into Hungary, and
officially promulgated promises of agrarian
partition. But the Hungarian population
remained deaf to these wicked and inflam
matory appeals. On the other hand, the
whole flower of the Magyar nobilicy are
serving Kossuth with the most honorable
devotion. Innumerable falsehoods have
been spread touching their alledged disaff
ection. Wc can only select a recent one
as a specimen of the rest. The corres
pondent ofa London newspaper announced
a movement in favor of Austria among
the magnates of Presburg. The facts
of the case were, briefly these: The
"magnates" in question were a small knot
of Austrian ex-officials, who had come to
gether and issued a proclamation for the
levy of a regiment in the imperial interest.
In three weeks they had mustered exacdy
75 soldiers. Thus neither among the
Magyar chiefs, nor among the races that
were formerly under their rule, has Koss
uth's merited influence declined. The
Esterhazys, Telekis, the Bathyanys, the
Palfys all have their representatives in
his councils or his armies. He has been
a61c to publish the protestation of the
Croatian nation against the acts of Assem
bly which Jallachich convoked, under the
pressure . of martial law, at Agram. A
Magyar, by his mother's side, and aSlo-
vack on his father s, he has become to all
parties and tribes in Hungary the repre
sentath'e of a united nationality. And
when the resumption of regular communi
cations admits the European public more
freely than is now the case to the interior
politics of Hungary, we believe that their
verdict will justify the enthusiastic unan
imity with which his countrymen have at
last reposed all their hopes of independence
in Kossuth's courage, wisdom, and perse
verance.

interest. The document was drawn up

In the name of God Amen- I, Ed

enjoyment of excellent health, for which I
am duly thankful, but having arrived at
that period of life at which it becomes the
duty of men to hold themselves ready for
disease and death and, moreover, having
this day learned, for the first time in the
course of my life, that my late marriage
contract will admit of a construction tend

which she would have been entitled with

First Democratic Response in Liltlc Cambria.
At a meeting of the citizens of Johns
town and vicinity, held at the house of Mr.
Samuel Bracken on Wednesday the 18th
inst., to respond to the State and County
nominations. On motion John Matthews
Esq., was appointed chairman of the meeting-
Mr. Matthews upon taking the chair,
made some very appropriate remarks.
which were enthusiastically received bv
the large concourse of citizens present.
On motion the following gentlemen
were chosen Vice Presidents, viz. Steele
S. Williams, and Wm. P. Patton.
On motion G. Nelson Smith was ap
pointed Secretary.
On motion of 1 hos. A. Maguire it was
Resolved that a committee of fiva be ap
pointed to draft resolutions for the meeting.
The Chair appointed the following gen
tlemen that committee.
Maj. T. A. Maguire, John Latshaw,
Casper Burgraff, H. A. Boggs and John
B. Onslow.
During the absence of the committee
Dr. Wm. A. Smith, the Democratic nomi
nee for Assembly, entertained the meeting,
in his usual able and happy manner; in
which the covert plans of the crafty whigs
to gain power, and the great national and
State questions at issue, were briefly but
pointedly expressed.
I he committee then returned, and
through their Chairman, Maj. Maguire,
reported the following resolutions, which
were adopted unanimously.
lhe Democracy of Pennsylvania arc
once moie in the field, prepared to do bat
tle for their time honored principles.
The broken ranks, caused by last years'.
defeat, have been effectually rallied, and
again present an unbroken front to the ene
my. Enthusiasm has assumed the place
of despondency, and confidence has dis
placed doubt of success.
1 he County is now thoroughly con
vinced of the value of whig promises.
The whig party, abandoning in the last
campaign an open avowal of any fixed set
of political principles, came into power
under the assumed garb of no-party ism and
opposition to proscription. By these
means that party succeeded in decoying a
sufficient number of democrats from their
allegiance to the political faith of their fa
thers, gave them the ascendency. No
sooner, however, have the reins of govern
ment been placed in their hands, than they
have thrown aside all regard for pledges
and promises, and stand before the world
in all the nakedness and deformity of whig-
gery.
It is a matter of vital importance to the
perpetuity of our free Institutions that this
party of broken pledges and violated prom
ises should be ousted from power, as soon
as it can be effected under the existing
laws of the country. As Pennsylvania is
responsible for the defeat of the democra
cy last fall, it is peculiarly incumbent up
on her to lead off in redeeming and disen
thralling the Nation; 1 hereforc,
Resolved, That we accord our willing
approval of the acts of the Democratic
State Convention, assembled at Pittsburg
on the 4lh inst., and adopt the doctrines
promulgated in the Resolutions passed by
that body believing them to be the true
principles of a progressive democracy.
Resolved, That in JOHN A. GAM
BLE of Lycoming county, we have a can
didate in every respect qualified for the
office of Canal Commissioner, for which
he has been nominated with unusual una
nimity by the representatives of the de
mocracy of Pennsylvania, lie has been
chosen as our standard bearer in the com
ing campaign. In his triumphant election
we forsee the precursor of the complete
rpsiomiion of the Republican party of the
old Keystone, and the consequent downfall
of whiggcry. 1 o bring about so desirable
result, the Democracy of little Cambria
will give willing and efficient aid.
Resolved, That our County Ticket is
one worthy our enthusiastic and undivided
support. Our candidates arc good men
and true possessing the entire confidence
of the party. It is to be hoped, that in sup
porting the ticket there will be none ex
cepted, but that "the Ticket, the whole
Ticket and nothing but the Ticket," will
be the battle cry of the Cambria Democ
racy in the approaching contest.
Resolved, That the Representative of
Cambria county in . the last Legislature
proved himself by his votes, to be "every
inch" a whig. No member of that body
evinced a greater degree of enthusiasm in
in the support of whig measures. How
any man having the most distant claim to
the name of Democrat, can vote for such
a candidate, is beyond the comprehension
of ordinary intelligence.
Resolved, That the Democracy of
Johnstown and vicinity respectfully urge
upon their, brethren throughout the county
to be "up and doing,' we have the numer
ical strength to effect a complete 'crzZ
of the stigma cast upon our county bv tl
partial defection of last fall. Let Us ne
begin in good earnest, and a glorious r?
generation will crown our efforts.

meeting be signed by the officers and Pub
