Testimony of a Political Opponent.
The Washington Union says: In these
days of political detraction and misrepresenta
tion, it is jleasant to record the testimony, no
les generous than just, of a political opponent.
It is, therefore, with feelings of more than or
dinary pleasure that we make room for the
following, which wo transfer from the columns
of the Philadelphia North American :
"A gentleman of this city informs us that
he lias lately passed an hour in company with
the lion John M. Clayton, during which the
conversation ran freely on the subject of Mr.
Clayton's letter to Mr Rodney King. Our
informant referred Mr. Clayton to that pas
sage in his letter iu Which ho states bis opin
ion that DO geueral rule could be laid down on
the subject of nppointing foreigners io ofice,
to which there would not necessarily bo excep
tion,' c To this Mr. Clayton replied in
nearly the following terms : 4 1 can give you
an example, sir, to illustrate my meaning.
There in James" Shields, af Illinois, now a
candidate- fr re-election iu that Statu to the
Senate of -the United States. I have been a
whig always1, and he is--a democrat I am a
native, and ho is an Irishman by Lirtb. I
do not know what his religion may be, but I
suppose ho is a Catholic, and I am a Protes
tant. If I had a hundred votes for a Senator
from Illinois, I would cast them all for James
Shields. He is a ttatesman, a patriot, and,
in vaj opinion, cue of the best men in the Sen
ate. Such a man,' added Mr. Clayton, is
an hoDor to any fetation lie may hold, and I
Bhould grieve to learn that lie Lj not to return
to the body of which he has been so u.viful and
valuable a member. ;

Attack on Pctropaulvwski Ly the English and
French Elects.
Th authentic-news of the declaration of
war by England and France against llussia,
reached iho allied squadron in Callao, just af
ter the departure of several Kusmn vessels
from that coast. The Russian vessels went to
the Sandwich Island, and thence, as it was
supposed, to Petropaulowski, or the Port of
Peter an l Paul, in Kamschatka, iu latitude
53 north Thither the allies wentiu search,
leaving the Sandwich Islands on the 25th of
J n!y. They found tu? northern ocean cover
ed with heavy f.Ng-, which compelled the vis
i els to t.ail very slowly. The fog was very
often so thick that it was utterly impossible to
see the. signab a hundred 3'ards oil'; and the
Kurydice was parted from the other vessels in
a fog, and was not seen ugain until they met
at Petropauiowski, at the end of August.-
The season admitted of no delay, and the ves
sels prepared for immediate action.
The place presented unexpected obstacles
It wm supposed that the fleet would fiud a
town with few soldiers, and fow fortifications
or defences of any kind ; but they f ound a for
midable fortress, protected by eight detached
batteries, containing in all, more than 120
guns and 1SC0 men. Three days after leav
ing the Sandwich Islands, the Admirula bar
ing no thought of finding a Gibraltar atPctro
paulowski, despatched two of their squadron
the Amphitrite and the Artemise, to cruise on
this coast.
Petropaulowski is at the foot of a small and
narrow bay, the shores of which, were protec
ted by numerous batteries. IJefore the town
could be reached, it would be neccssajy to si
lence three cf these batteries. Nature has
given the position a protection, by the erec
tion of a . mound of sand in the midst of the
bay.
This mound of sand leaves to the vessel but
a narrow channel, and hides the view of the
principal fortress to vessels at a distance. On
the Sbth of August, the six vessels, of war,
the Forte, of GO guns, the Kurydice, of 28
guus, the Obligado, of 12 guns, the Pique,
of 40 guns, the Prcsdent, of 50 guns, and the
Virago, steamer, of G guns, (the last three
English, and the first three French,) were be
fore the place, intent upon takings it.
When the attack was about to be begin,
Admiral Price in command of the English
forces, shot himself through the breast with a
pistol ball The news had a very depressing
eCectupon the people of the fleet. Price was
a brave man and much respected, and out of
respect for him the attack was postponed till
the next day. It was supposed by some to
have been au accident, while others thought it
a suicidal affair.
On the 31st of August the battle begun.
The Russian frigate Aurora, of 40 guns, and
the Dwiua, of 18, Averc anchored tefore the
mound The allied vessels, distant about a
mile from the city, concentrated their lire on
the three foremost forts. These were silenced
after a fierce cannonade, in which 250 guns
were engaged. The batteries were deserted
by the Russians, the cannons were spiked,
and the next day the allied A'essels moved up
nearer to the city. Ou the 1st of September
an attack was made upon the Russian vessels.
The Aurora was badly iniured, with a num
ber of shot holes between wind and water, and
having her mainmast shot away.
About noon a large fort had been reduced
to such a condition that it was thought- best to
take it. A body of Fn nch soldiers were ac
cordingly landed, and they took the fort-without
dilhculty. The Russian officers barely
had time to escape, leaving everything which
they did not habitually carry on their persons.
After takin? this fort it was thought advisable
. to send a body of men to get behind the main
fort, an l make a uiversion in the rear white
tlie ships were playing in front. About sis
hundred men were sent for this purpose, and
an American undertook to guide them around
to the rear of the fortification, but he took
them into a thick brushwood, where a large
number cf Ilu3siai3 were concealed. The
Russians began a muruer-oits fire upon the
French and English, who after a short resis
tance, fled with the loss of about 150 men kil
led and wounded. They left their dead upon
the field. They managed, however, to take
one of the smaller redoubts, spike the cannons
and take 43 Russian prisoners
Immediately after the return of the troops
upon their respective vessels a council was
beld and it was determined to leave Petro
paulowski, and the purpoxi was soon accom
plished. The main purpose of the attack was to des
troy the Russian vessels, so that they could
not hereafter sally out and injure the commerce
of the allies od the Pacific It was supposed
that the Aurora was so much injured that
several months would be required to repair
her. and tue Dwma, a vessel ot about 18 guns,
was considerably injured. The winter, how
ever, lias now set iu at Petropaulowski and
the ice will have completely closed the harbor
of the Port of bt. Peter and fc?t. Paul, long
before this, so that no trouble to French and
English commerce is to be anticipated from
the Aurora and Dwina until next April at
least. The frigate Pallas was taken up tha
river Amoor some distance from the mouth,
and was there made fast, dismounted and con
verted into a fort. ' The position of tae Diana
was not known, but it was supposed to be in
the Sea of Ochotsk.
The assailants fauod m the main object of
their attack, aud failed signally in their sec
ondary object, the destruction of the fortifi
cations at Petropaulowski. The purpose was
not to take the town, which they might really
have taken or destroyed without loss, on Ahe
second day. It3 conquest, however offered
nothing of benefit; The loss of life in the al
lied fleet is differently given by those who
were present. More Englishmen than French
men were killed and wounded. Several un
lucky bails, as they are styled, struck the
English vessels, killing, not solitary mea, but
carrying off whole files. The French vessels
received no unlucky balls, although a number
of the shot vrere sufDciently injurious to the
vessels The Forte received forty balls, nd
though she was in the thickest otNtlie fight,
only six of her men were killed and ten woun
ded on the vessel.
The Russian prisoners express their satis
faction with the manner .in which they have
been treated, and it is probable that they will
be permitted to come on Ehore on their parole.
A number of them have como from St. Pe
tersburg within the last year.
The Russians handled their guns with a
skill which commanded the admiration cf the
allied forces Fifteen hundred of the men in
the fort were veterans from the, Caucasus,
sent out through Siberia and down the Amoor
within a year, and six hundred of the number
had arrived within three mouths of the attack.
Among the prisoners taken, werca number
of persons of intelligence, including Germans,
Danes, and others who have been in the Rus
sian service. A Russian gencralj now on the
frigate Forte, in this harbor, was captured in
the Sitka. He was going to take command
of the fortifications at Petropaulowski. While
the allied fleet was before that place, a Rus
sian admiral, formerly on the Pallas frigate,
arrived from the Amoor off the harbor in a
small screw steamer, and was about to enter,
when he discovered the hostile vessels, or was
signalized, and putting about, succeeded in
making his escape.

Loss of tae Yaniea Blade. Thirt7 Lire 3 Lost.
Waolosale Eobbory. $153,030 in Specie Lost.
The Independent steamer Yankee Blade
, t 1 i). . 1. -1 4.
was wrecKea on ounaay, me ist msc, auoui,
3.V P. M., by running upon rocks near Point
Conception "in a fog. The vessel had been
out 2o.V hours from this port when she was
wrecked. About half an hour before the ves
sel struck, one of the passengers remarked
that he saw land, but Capt. Randall said it
was a mistake, and that they were at least
20 miles from shore. About half an hour
afterwards, the vessel ran gradually up for
more thau half her length 011 a rock, with a
slight shock. The land was some half mile
distant, and was soon afr clearly risible.
As soon as she struck the wheels were back
ed, put it was of no use; she was completely
fast. The water immediately couvuicnccd to
rush in at the bow, and the stern settled so
that the whole of the promenade deck, excep
ting the guards, was under water :
A scene of great confusion ensued. There
was no order, and scarcely any attempt at the
preservation of order. Capt Randall was in
a boat with six men, in about ten cftnutes af
ter the steamer struck, and went ashore to
find a landing place. Soon after(that, Jhe
first mate left with another boat wiih some la
dies, and then the second mate toyk another
load of ladles. One of these baits ws swamp
ed, and out of 21 persons, it wassayl that 12,
most of whom were ladies, were drowned
The land, distant about three-quarters of a
mile from where the steamer ky, ros in a bold
blufi 200 feet high, aud the plaao where a
landing was practicable was between two large
boulders. About seven or eight! boat loads
were landed on Sunday. Here tiost of the
passengers were landed ; but the second mate
to-jk his boat down the coat about j ten miles,
to a beach. All the ladies were landed before
night. Jdost of the passengers sajc-d nothing
save the clothes they had on. 1
The sea was rather rough . though there
was little wind. The surf was so lavy alor.g
the shore that the boats were ewaniped four or
five times, ond the men wno had iiicc reach
ed shore had little ui? .position to gojout
121
When night approacnel it wa.
iriirjOEsible to proceed whh carry::
senders to the shore. The general
01 course
g the pas
mpressiou w?.sthat the steamer would go torncccs du
ring the night. The boat roiled ry much.
The upper' cabin did net fdi wii'j TTer for
about an hour after the vessel !fid struck,
and it is said that fiends immediately began
to pillage the property, of which tlure was no
owner immediately present. The filling of
the cabin before dark prevented tli continu
ance of the pillage. As night approached,
the stern settled down and the bojf rose, so
that the deck stood at an angle of aliput twen
ty degrees. Tbe forward steersg(('was thus
elevated above the water, and as njht came
ou it became the scene of horrible pjilage.
There was a large number of steeraie "passen
gers ou the Blade, many of whom hil money
aud valuables in carpet-bags, stowc1 away in
their bertli3 ;
There were twenty or twenty-five vretches
on board, who were determined ti fake ad
vantage of the confusion to commit a general
robbery. No sooner was the favorinf mantle
of darkness spread over the sky, flan they
hurried down into the steerage, and, legan to
examine the clothes in the berths, avjl to-cut
open the carpet-bags. What was done down
there no honest man knows. About 7 o'clock
the cry of murder was heard in thesteerage,
and about the same time two pistol iltots were
heard. WTho was the murderer, and who the
murdered, no one knew. A iinmbcr of per
sons started to go down into the steerage, but
the steps were taken away by tha below,
and threats were made that no mn should
come down Jthere alive. The condition of af
fairs on the boat was such that theri was not
much disposition to undertake to difjnd the
right cf strangers. Thero were about 800
persons on the steep deck of the boit; sitting
down, standing up, aud a few lying down
shivering m tuo eoia, ana waiting utmost, in
despair of seeing the moruing No jne slept
or thought of sleeping. During tie night
some further scenes of violence occurred. A
number of persons were assaulted jQne per
son was knocked down, anl competed, with
a pistol at his breast, to give up hi money.
Another was robbed, and an attempt yis male
to throw him overboard. A num bet more of
similar cases occurred j
When daylight came persons west down
into the steerage and saw some marks of blood;
but if a murder had been committed ta body
had been cast into the hold or otherwise dis
posed of. The floor of the steerage .is cov
ered with articles of clothing, carpet 'lags cut
to pieces, and rich China chawls witch the
miners were taking as presents to fijends at
home. ' Iu the morning t'ae boats bf-gati again
to take cf persons from the wreck. '1 .e third
mate and the pnrsur were the only o2-ers
who staid cn board. The passengess speak
in high terui3 of the third mate. Ilocspref
sed hi3 determination to be the last man to
leave the wreck; and he was constancy busy
in encouraging the desponding and endeavor
ing to preserve order and system." - Captain
Randall came tS to the stesmer in the morn
u7. in a boat in which ho staid till it ktback
to snfn-e. its assured 1
ose on thfe wreck
-they would all get
t!iat there was no danger
off safe. -
By a fortunate accident, the Goliah came
along within sight of the -wreck about;9 o'
clock in the morning. Capt. Haley tiok a
large load of the passengers on boar4 and
landed them at San Diego. In- the mealtime
a number of the men on shore had startiil for
Santa Barbara, which was about fifty mijes to
the northward. Tho Goliah, on her return,
stopped there and fouud forty-five therej and
then proceeded to the wreck, where she lund
on the shore the remainder, all of whoii she
brought to this city. It may be that 2I few
were missed who were on the way frori the
landing place to Santa Barbara, and had not
arrived when the Goliah touched there. AH
the rest are in this city or in Los Angclos.
When the Goliah returned the wreck was
scarcely visible above water, and it is very
likely that by this time nothing is left, and
that the specie is a total loss.
In regard to tbe number of lives lost there
is much difference of opinion among the pas
sengers. Some think thirty were lost, and
some estimate it as high as sixty. In one
boat load swamped twelve were lost, iu anoth
er five, in another three, Sec. One man who
had two carpet bags fastened to his neck, one
on each side, was so anxious to get to shore
that he jumped from the steamer intending to
swim to a small boat which wa' near, receiv
ing passengers, but bis carpet bags were too
much for him he sunk like a stone.
Besides, it is said that three persons jump
ed overboard from the Goliah, on the way to
San Diego. The reportisthattwo ofthe.se
were robbers, who heard that they were rec
ognized, and that there was a disposition on
the part of some of the passengers to bring
them to justice. Other passengers express a
belief that the robbers hid themselves and
managed to hare the report spread, so that
they could escape.
A couple of inen constructed a raft, and
started by the aid of a current 'towards the
shore. They had stools on their rafr,-nud
hoisted a small flag out of merriment. Their
fun disappeared when they discovered that,
after going some distance, the current chang
ed, and began to carry them out to sea ; they
were rescued by a boat.
The place of landing opposite the wreck,
was a barren point, and the nearest house was
ten miles distsnt.
