Speech of Gov. Eigler in Washington. We publish below the speech of Gov. lig ler, delivered in Washington on the 23d ult., at a serenade given Lira by the gallant young Democracy of that city. It is full of thought and true manliness, and presents with candor the issues involved in the recent State can vass. It will be -read with interest by all classes of our people : (lev. Bigler said 'that, unprepared as hot was for the occasion, he should leel hiinselt unworthy; Cf -the..-pcrsoual -, respect. . le friends were hi to. fail to acknowledge, as best he could, a compliment so flattering and gratifying. It speaks (said Le) a language more eloquent than words can express, and had excited the strongest emotions of his heart. OiTerings of this kind to successful contestants for power and place are not un common ; but such , greetings to those about retiring from public life- to defeat-.id candi dates and pro.strflts principles are less usual; for, even in cur days of disijjtercsted friend ship, the rising sun is more attractive to some than the setting. But Mr. B said Le pre ferred to believe that the demonstration be fore him was more than a personal compli ment to himself. He regarded it as intended to evince the attachment of the people pre sent to the great principles which he had the honor to represent in the late gubernatorial canvass in Pennsylvania as manifesting their confidence in the motto inscribed on the Democratic flag now prostrate in the Old Keystone fc'uch sentiment and sympathy he could reciprocate most heartily. It is, said Mr. B.. matter of congratulation, that whilst the candidates of our party in that contest have fallen, not one word has lieen erased from the motto on the Hag under which thay contended not cue sentiment of Democratic truth had been abandoned not one conces sion mado to the enemy in the fight, uor the slightest forbearance asked at their hands. Mr. B. described the contest in this state as one of an extraordinary character one that in many of its phases stood without a parallel in the partisan struggles of the country. For the first time in our history, secret and oath bound societies, organised for the avowed purpose of controlling the politi cal affairs had entered the political arena. For the first time, too, we have witnessed the potent p.nd mischievous workings of an insti tution against which the wise and sagacious "Washington had warned the American peo ple, lie alluded to the mysterious operations of this organization, uiid i-aid that, enveloped in mystery and dignified with the solemnity of oaths, its arproat-hc8 were most insidious and seductive. He regarded it as well cal culated to mislead, for tlve moment, the un wary and the weak. But he had an abiding confidence that mature rcfiL-ction on the part of its members would work its dissolution An institution whose tenets of faith are mim ical to the laws of the land, and" in deroga tiou of the rights and dignity of a large class of American citizens, cannot long endure the scrutiny of an in elligout and just people. Against this, and all similar organizations, said Mr. B., the Dcmccraey of Pennsylvania have taken most positive ground. They are against all secret &x?ieties to accomplish polit ical end.-;, no matter by whom formed. The evil tendencies of such organizations are too manifest, said he, to long command the con fidence of the people. They arc moral as well as political. For an apt and .eloquci,t description of the la'.ter, he would refer his hearers to Washington's. Farewell Address lie looked upon this organic tioa " as a truly great machine, through the operations of which a few desiring and skillful men tould rule the niasss wirti a rod of-iron. Amongst the moral evils may be counted the opportun ity, if not the necessity, which it presents for the practice of duplicity its tendency to destroy that mutual confidence which should ever exist between members of the same com munity to corrupt and make bitter' the chan nels of social intercourse-" to stultify that free declaration of opinion and purpose so essen tial to the promotion of intelligence, mutual confidence, and manly bearing its restraints upon the free and independent exercise of the tketive franchise. Governor B. declared himself opposed to all societies of this kind ; that he depreeated them as prejudicial to the dignity and welfare of the people, to the ad vancement of Christianity and Ilepublicanism - as inconsistent with tho genius of our insti tutions and the American character. In a country where the people enjoy to. such an ; eminent degree the freedom of speech and the -liberty of discussion, there can exist no necessity for secret societies. If there be, said he, moral . or political evils amongst us which demand correction, let the work be an open and a daylight business. Let it be ap plied in a manner consistent with the laws of the land and the people. Lot every man de clare his opinions and intentions frankly and freely, and endeavor, by fact and reason, to constrain his neighbor to the right. But let thcia shun' an institution that teaches its members to say one thing and do another. Mr. B. said it was a painful reflection that the Democracy of Pennsylvania, going: into the contest the advocates of the doctrine of self-government of the people of cur Territo ries, with" an avowal of their determination to sustain tho constitutional rights of all classes and denominations of American citiz ens and each member of our national con federacy, and to see equal and exact justice meted out to all, should have been defeated But that glorious party tho party of pro gress and the party of the constitution said he, are not vanquished or disbanded. There is stiB: a solid phalanx of some 105,000 who have not yielded to the power of the new party, besides many thousand of good men who were misled by the wily schemes of the enemy, and who will swell our ranks, joined by many high-minded and . indepent Whigs, who will prefer the Democratic "to the new party ; these united can redeem the Old Key stone from the rule of an unseen power. He made no pretensions to prophecy, nor did he assume o penetrate further into the miseries of the future than other men, but he would ventura to predict that the ' day was not re mote when the principles which have just been prostrated in Pennsylvania will be vindicated and endorsed by the people when the Demo cratic party will be again in the ascendancy ; and also that tho policy of the Democracy in the contest of 1854' will constitute one of the brightest pages in' the history af our party. It was not the firct timft that the Democracy havo-ben- defeated -whilt -twiteadiuc .tt; principles and a wise public policy. 1 his late contest, said Gov B, will be recorded as another instance in which that party , have contended for the right, regardless of the consequence have preferred principles to unworthy success. . Since the election Mr. B. said he had no ticed with much interest, and in some ir stan ces with astonishment, the efforts of certain of the opposition press to save their party from the consecpucnees of this fusion triumph.. Conscious that some of the ialse issues winch they had raised are likely to cost thorn dearly in future, they are attempting to attribute the origin of these to the action of the Demo cracy. Dreading the ultimate effects of the intolerant doctrines that have just triumphed in Pennsylvania, and the frightful error of arraying one class of American citizens and one denomination of professing Christians against another, they are vainly attempting to escape a just responsibility. By w hat facts or process or reasoning this work is to be ac complished, 3Ir. B. said he was at a loss to imagine. As yet he had seen no argument on this subject that could mislead the most dull of comprehensian. The Democracy did not in the lata contest, nor in any other,-j nor will they in the future, attempt to mingle matters of religion with polities They have distincly denounced all such attempts. As a member of that party, he had done so, and should continue to do so on all proper occa sions; nor had he ever sought to conciliate any sect or class of people by 'tampering with their feeliug or yielding, to their preju dices. How these new questions arose in Pennsyl vania can be readily discovered. The Whig Mayor of Philadelphia, in hi3 inaugural ad dress, had distinctly avowed the doctrine that a citizen lorn out of the country should not be trusted with civil office, and that he should make his principle a rule of action in the dis tribution of the patronage of his office. The Democratic' party; .deny the justice Of ibis doctrine, and insist that the guarantees of the Constitution must be scrupulously observed ; that no administrative officer should lay down rules inconsistent with a just administration of the' laws; that each American citizen, wherever born, should be permitted to enjoy all his rights and opportunities under the Constitution. Our opponents, who had thus commenced an aggression upon adopted citi zens, immediately raising the cry of "foreign influence,", and charge that the Democracy are the special friends and apologists of our foreign population, and address themselves to the national prejudices of our people. We deny this allegation that we are the special I guardians of any class of citizens. The Dem- ! oeratic party seek only to defend the Consti- ! tution. and to maintain that each citizen sliall le permitted to enjoy the rights, privileges and opportunities which it guarantees to him. Were the e ncroachment made upon any ether class of people the position of the Democratic j party would not be changed. They would ! still insist upon a just administration of the Constitution. They would then be called the partizans cf the native born citizens. Secret and oath-bound societies have been formed for the known purpose of abridging the constitutional rights of American citizens because of the place of their birth, and the rights of a certain religious denomination of people, whether born in America or else where. Tho T)emocratic party again insist that the constitutional guarantees must be ob served ; that no citizen shall be proscribed from civil place because of his religious be lief ; and, again, a false charge is raised, to the effect that we are the apologists of the Catholic religion. "We deny this allegation, Raid Mr. J. 1 he Jemocratic party are the guardians of no religions denomination, but simply defend the constitution against the in novations that would render ils guaraatee a dead letter. . Were similar combinations made against the Presbyterian, or Methodist, or any other denomination, the Democracy would resist such encroachment. Then, with equal justice, they might be called the special friends of these denominations, iue demo cratic party is not the guardian of any parti cular religious denomination ; it seeks to se cure the especial favor of none, but maintains the constitutional rights of all. It has not. and he trusted it never would recognize the demands of any sect or class of people, as such for oSlce or honor. It will maintain the legal and moral rights of all ; anel leave each citizen to depend upon his own ; merits and qualifications for office and honor. - . . c The doctrine, Eaid Mr. Bi, that the acci dent of birth is to determine the rights and opportunities of an American citizen to at tain to and to hold civil office, is inconsistent with justice and right. Citizens, agreeably to the Constitution, are entitled to like bene fits, rights, privileges, anj immunities ; and, for one, he denied the justice of all attempts, either by power of secret combinations or by laws, to restrict or withdraw these blessings and liberties a3 to particular citizens. The proposition, said Mr. B , is unjust, illegiti mate, and revolutionary,, and ho was at a loss to understand how any one making pre tensions to Christianity could countenance so great a wrong. , The acceptanoo of our con ditions by the people of other countries made a covenant which we have no moral or politi cal right to break, and which the govern ment is bound to maintain. The savage rule, that might makes right, and that only, can be made to reach' the "object of this new or ganization. But ccrtainiy such doctrines are not to bo countenanced in our enlightened ago Wo native-born citizens have no more rihfc to combine,to?ether to take away the civil rights of adopted citizeus than wo have to take away their goods and chattels. The obligations mads by our forefathers shouht be faithfully observed; the faith ef the nation as plighted ia the constitution should never, and he trusted aud believed, never yoyld be violated. The only legitimate in ijairy on thi3 subject, said Mr. B., must have I' .WoWwo -he future. A proposition ' to change the conditions on which the people of other countries shall hereafter become Ameri can citizens is a fair subject for discussion and inquiry However much . we may differ in opinion as to the necessity for a change in our naturnlizatieui laws, no complaint can be justly made that the epiestion Las been pre sented. Such a proposition' could work no wrong to cither the native or foreign born citizen. Those who aect.to believe that our country is being harmed and onr institutions endangered by the influx of foreign born population should direct their efforts to this poiut, and to this only. They should seek to accomplish their purpose by taking rather than breaking law. Those who would proscribe men from -civil ofhee because of their religions belief, should also take "notice that the direct tendency of their doctrines is to a unity of Church and State. In no other way can their doctrines have a practical operation. The Democratic party are opposed to any such unity, as they are against any and all attempts to Lring the power of the civil government to bear upon matters of religious belief and church organi zation. Nothing, said Mr. B., could be more prejudicial to our civil government, or so well calculated to retard the advance of Christiani ty. If this doctrine is to xnake an' isue j against the Democracy, let it come. We shall stand by the Constitution, and by the great- j est of all the distinguishing e-haraeteristle-s of our government religious liberty, lie had j no fear as to the result ; the people will main tain our republican institutions as they are Mr. B said he fondly hoped the recent election in Pennsylvania had not created the J impression that she had permanently fallen j from her ancient faith. . He felt assured that ! she had not that she will hereafter stand by the rights of the individual citizen as well as by the constitutional rights of the Several States of the confederacy that she will dis countenance all attempts to organize - gra phical parties, and extend under all circum stances, a patriotic support to the Union. The reccut. election furnishes no evidence that ht-r Democracy Lave changed any of their former views ou great national rpuestions. The defeat of the Democratic party, said Mr. B , must be attributed to the power of the secret societies to which he had already re ferred ; all -other agencies and influences would. i his opinion, have failed to accom plish the cud we have seen. - - Mr. B. alluded briefly to the course of the opposition press toward President Pierce. It is teeming with decuueiations, and yet that press has utterly failed to controvert ,the doc trines and principles of his 'public documents. Time and experience will vindicate the policy aud principles he has advocated ; and the op position, as iu times gone by, will be again compelled to confess the utter futility of their assaults upon Democratic policy, measures aud men. The most violent of these, how ever, said-Mr B.. have not as.aiied the mo tives of the President all admit the purify of theman, and the justice of Lis intentions. ' An Attempt to Smuggle. Yesterday morning at an early hour In spector Brown, of the llevenue department, seized some 4,500 worth of watches and jewelry, found on the persons of two of the seeoad-class passengers of the steamer Wash ington, from Bremen. The circumstances of the case were these: Mr. Surveyor Cochrane Lad received what he deemed reliable infor mation that an " atten:pt would be made to smuggle a large quantity of jewelry, watches, rf-c, by passengers of the Wa.singlon, without designating the parties suspected. Previous to the arrival ' of the Washington, Officers Brown and Dusenberry were detailed to take charge of hei , On the day of her arrival they could discov er no indication of an attempt at smuggling ; but yesterday morning, as officer Brown came on deck to reliev e the night officers, he obser ved that two gentlemen who were promena ding tho deck had something arouud their body that made them appear greatly out of proportion. He accosted theui and asked what was in their money-belt. They replied nothing but Fpte-ii He then caused them to be searched, and found on their persons a large number of watches ana considerable jewelry, which he tock possession of and de livered to the Surveyor of the port.' The es timated value of the seizure was between four and five . thousand doIla?s. '20th. JV. V. Tritune, Cost of Pcblic Worship i Boston.

Our scene opens upon a highway, nearly three, leagues from London. The- shades of evening were fast setting, when a horseman, bestriding a noble fcteeci, who seemed ouite exhausted by his da's journey entered the avenue leading through llalstcad V ood ; and the young man for he seemed scarcely twenty-two years of age as he entered the forest, now made gloomy by the darkness of the fal ling night, drew from his "head the richly em broidered cap of velvet, and as he wiped from his brow the perspiration, he murmured: But a' short distance now niy good steed,' and our journey is ended. 'Tis a long time since I left the city of my birth, and ir.y pa rents and sweet sis'tor God forbid that aught should have befallen them during my absence will scarcely know me. But I will give them a surprise ah ! that will Le delightful;" and he again pi need the e:; upon Lis heal, and started onward at a brisker pace. But scarcely had he proceeded ten rods when, from a thicket on the right, a man, whose face was covered with a mak, rushed from his concealment, and ere the traveller was aware of his presence, se ized the horse by the bridle, and with a powerful jerk, near ly threw him upon his haunches; then level ing directly at tho stranger's breast a heavy pistol, he exclaimed : " Instantly deliver up the money in vonr possession, or your life will pay the forfeit." ihe young man s eyes cashed with pas.Mon for a moment, then tpurring Lis Li rse which gayea spring forward, he leaped with a bound trom his saddle; and . ere the robber, whose attention Lad been for an instant directed to the horse, could prevent it, or before Lis arm could be raised", one hand of the traveller was fairly gripped upon his throat,, and the Other pinioning the arm which Leld the pistol i lcreeiy did tue robber struggle in Lis cm- dravors to free -himsolf from the young man's hold, but 'twas all in vain ; he might as well have attempted to. move a rock. Soon his face turned to a purple hue, and 33 he vainly endeavored to utter a sentence, Le opened Lis Land, the pLsttd dropped upon the ground and he turned his eyes with an imploring look upon his captor. Nor was it unheeded, for the young man unloosed his hold upon the robber's throat, and drawing from his pocket a handkerchief, he firmly bound the hands of his captive; and then taking the loaded pistol from the ground, he placed it within his own bosom. The robber, as his captor stepped from him. sack upon the turf, and to the astonishment of the young man, buried Lis face in Lis bound hands and burst into a Cool of tears. "Alas! poor Marian," he sobbed, "you will now starve, audi, oh, heavens! shall not be near you !" btarvc Marian, repeated the young man, whose astonishment was great, by all that's good, I have a sister by that name, and she of whom you?peak shail net starve. Tell hk1, my geod man, why did you attempt to rob me '! You seem not like a common vil lain " "Neither ami," said the roLbor, lifting his head at the words of the young man. "Then why, I again ask, did you attempt my robbery " I will tell yoa as vou desire it, and God knows it is all truth. Two years ago I was a elerk in the employ of a wealthy, influential nrni in Loudon. At the mansion of the junior partner, I one evening made tho ucquaiutaucc of a beautiful voung lady, daughter of a rich merchant.. Our intimacy ripened into love, and we became pledged to one anot" cr. Thus our affairs steod, when the father of Marian became aeiuaiuted with the fact, aud forbid uie his house. I was but an humble clerk, he said, and not a match for her whose afii-e-tions I hud gained But the sternness of the lather altered ' not the feelings of the daugh ter, for in a few weeks wc affected an elope ment, and then Marian became my wife "Her father from that moment would never sec her face; and he declared that not a pound of his wealth, should ever be bestowed upon his ungrateful girl. By his machinations, also. I lost my situation aDd six months since I lc-tt the employ of my hitherto kind bene factor. Oh, God ! the agony of miud I have since endured would Lave mad Jcued my brain. Lad not my gentle Marian been uppermost in my thoughts.' For many weeks I have sought employment but could not gain it. Since yesterday, myself and ' wife have not tasted food.; and to-day Heaven forgive me-the act I started from the city determined to rob. You can sec how I have succeeded ; and yet, thank God, you overpowered mo Had it not been for my wife I would never attempted this ; but I could not see her starve I could not!" and as he concluded, he again sobbed like a chill. " Nor shall she," cried the young man. "I know not but you arc playing me false, but I scarcely believe it. Forgive me, how ever, if I take proper precaution against treachery'" . As he spoke, ho again mounted his horse, and bidding his prisoner go on before, they started on their way to London. "Lead me to your owu dwelling, and if I find you have told me the truth, you shall not suffer ." . - ' "Thanh you thauk you!" was all the ovenpowcred man could reply, and they pro ceeded on iu silence. The bells of the city were striking the hour of ten when the two men arrived at the out skirts of London.- Dismounting from his tired horse, which he left in the hands of tho host ler at an humble iun, the young man follow ed the footsteps of the robber keeping a cau tious eye on him, lest he should attempt to escape by darting down one of the many lanes in the vicinity. But such a thought never entered the breast of the prisoner, for he led his captor on through several streets, till stop- ping before a miserable, tenement, whose an cient wall seemed as if about to fall to tho ground, and he turned and ea'ul : " This is the place where, for three weeks myself nd wife Lave been ;bligcd to remain : deprived of every comfort and even thencceB 1 skies of life But do not let me go into tho I presence of Marian w ith my Lands so bound ; ; forhc-aven's eake. kind sir, unbind them, for should she see them thus, the would Lnow ! that I was a criminal. : A tear stood in the young man's eyes as he : proceeded to do a3 requested, for he felt that j such words could never eeuie frcm a guilty , and depraved Leing Pushing aside the rick j ety door as soon as his hands were free, the j poor man entered the wretched abode, follow ed ly tiic stranger. A'assuig enrougu a ewr of a hall they' came to kuothcr door, which was opened, and they stood in a small low room, which was lighted but di'dy by a flick ering rush light. A woman, who at their en trance, was sitting with her face buried in her Lands, started up uu sprang to the embrace of her husband. She notice-d not ihe strong er; but as she welcomed her husbaud, she ask ed in a-tremuleus voice " Have you succeeded, dear Alvin in find ing employment Y ' " I have pot, dear Marian," was the reply, "but I have brought a friend with nic who promises relief." The woman started at these words, and turned to tLank her unknown deliverer. But scarcely had the young man's eyes fallen up on her face, than he rprang forward exclaim ing " Gracious heaven! do my eyes deceive me? Tell me w hat was your name before your mar riage " " Marian Ilansley !" exclaimed the bewil dered w('ii:an. . ' "I knew it; I. could not mistake those fea tures ycu are my m'te r .'" and the young mau pressed her to his heart. No, it cannot be !" exclaimed she starting back; " I never had but one brother Le slee j'S in an ocean grave." ' Ah, .you are mistaken there; the vessel in which I sailed for the Indies, was wrecked,, and all but myself perished. For two years I have wandered iu a foreign land and Lave just arrived upon my native shores I am your brother, William llansley !" "Then it must be so it is, indeed, for I can now recognize your coui.toBar.ce, although you are much altered ;" and with a glad cry she flew to his arms. It was a happy meeting for all that uight, aud it may be well believed that the husband was astonished at the scene. That very uight they removed toconiSurta ble quarters cud the next day at the interfe rence of the long lost sou, were restored to tho favor of their wealthy parents. Marian nev er learned the true story of her husband's meeting with her brother, uor was the inci dent ever calk-d in memory of the truly re pentant husband Business.
