"hickerings iu the camp," which will not
be of mush service to either party.
'rho telegraphic accounts from Sens.

Ito this date, as respects the operations of
the besi ogers. They were engaged in the
lerection of new works, and it is reported
that no further assault will he mode, until
the French batteries which are in course of
construction before the Mamelon, shall be
completed, and ready to open fire. Until
this event transpires, we need expect no
further demonstrations of a warlike nn
titre from the seat of war, unless they be
on the part of the Russians. It is said
that the Russians are making vieormis ef
forts with their spies in Paris and Belgium,
to sow the seeds of discord between the
; English and French. It had been current
;ly reported in Paris that a Cabinet Coon.
cif had been held tinder the presidency of
the Emperor, to deliberate on the rinestion
whether it would not be right to authorize
Cs'eneral Pelissier to act in such a tray as
he may see fit without trailing for the co
! operation of the English.
This savors strongly of a spirit of an
tagonism, and we may eventually zee a
disunion between these two great powers.
We always considered the alliance between
England and France as insincere as it tip

What's to be Done•
We last week published a communion
lion relative to the future action of the
Whig Party of Huntingdon County. The
portion of the article to which we alluded,
when we expressed ourself as not endors •
ing the sentiments contained therein, was,
where the American Party Was spoken of;
but more particularly, where a sly intima
tion was given of Whig and Looofoco "fu
sion." The other . portions of the comma
nication, meet our heartrapproval.
As the Whig organ of the county, it is
no doubt expected we should express our
opinion as to what would be the inner jo
dicious and proper course for the party to
pursue, in the present topsy-turvy condt
lion of politics. We believe sincerely—
and we hope our brethren throughout the
county, will-act upon tho siiggention—that
the Whig Party of the county, has strength
sufficient to triumph over all opposition,
notwithstanding the result lost
fall. Therefore, let delegate meetings be
held as usiAl, in the different townships of
the county, and representatives appointed
to the County Convention, to meet during
-the coming August Court. This is the on•
ly honorable course left for the Party to
-pursue, now, and the only one which can
pn3serva distinct, its name and nationality.
Whatever fours , the Whig county Con.
vention array see proper to pursue, that is.
whatever line of .action it may mark out
for the Party, we deem it nothing but du
ty in every true, loyal and faithful repub
lican Whig,to acquiesce. Should the con
vention make nominations, those nomina
tions should be ratified and endorsed by all
the Whigs of the County; who have so long
and ardently supported the good old prin
ciples upots which the Whig Party is foun
ded.
We hope the Whigs of the county will
faithfully perform their duty, believing us
we firmly do, that a Convention composed
of the intelligent Whigs of the County,
will know whether it should be most ju•
dicious to present a county ticket in the
field, or cooperate with any other organ
ization. At all events, we are in favor of
the Convention, and pray that the disposi•
tions of all loyal fellow party-men may be
as ours. An honorable "fusion" withnny
reTelpible party should not be ore rlolked
by tfiii Convention, in case it sheuld by
;Ismael inexpedient to nominate

CRAWFORD AND Ente.—ln the State Senuto•

the next candidate fur Senatorial honors.—
These two counties have separate and adverse
interests on railroad matters, and therefore each
is desirous of having the Senator. Erie had
the incumbent lost term, but au her railway
troubles arc still unsettled, she is desirous of
having the position again. This difference of
lucal interests seems to cause a general cont.
anon among political parties in that section.

THE MURDER. Pll4/I".BOII.CLARK S. BiIOWN,
at Pontotoc, Miss, of which we lntuly Made
' mention, bears a remarkable likeness to the
case of Malt Ward and Professor Butler. As;
the circumstances are narrated by a letter from
r the ;dace, it appears that Brown was a native
of New Hampshire, a graduate of Dartmouth
I College, and principal of the "Pontotoc Male
I Academy.. A few days previous to the mar
der, Ito punished, for some tnisdemeanor, a lad
named Cater Wray," about 12 years of age.—
John, en elder brother of the lad, who title. I
led the same school, was subsequently expel-'
'1 led fel having at the me twice threatened j
time
Professor Brown if he whipped his mother
again. l'ltrae, ;lays after the occurrence, an
other brothei named Keith Wray. aged eighteen
rears, who was studying medi c i ne hien office in I
in tie ity, armed • himself with a revolver and
1 bowie knoe.went to the academy, and wanted
Brown called out, but, as he was too touch
ex
cited at the time, the assistant refused the re-
I •
quest. Wray left, saying that he would see hint
' on his way home, and at the close of the se,
siun he tact his victim in the public Path. Ile
accosted hint rudely, told him that he hod ine
I posed WM his brother, and when he undertook
to reason the matter, called hint by at insul.
• deg epithet, and aimed a blow with his fist at
• Pmt.'s fare. The latter seeing Wray's weal.-
,
ons as the blow was aimed, raised a little riding
I whip, and prepared to defend himself.
Imme
diatety thereupon, Wray inflicted seven fatal'
j wounds, which caused Brown's instant death.
,The murderer was arrested and committed to
I prison, but his friends made vigorous efforts to
, forestall justice by promptly securing all the lc

leaves a young wife, to whom he had only been
married a few mouths.
