New Y to, May T. 2A.14.
I passed a very pleasant reciting. lately, with
Col. Al'sop. to English gentleman, understood
to have b•en connected with the hoe attempt I
on the life of Louis Napoleon. Two 'eh,
neonvirators," Italians, were prsent, ant stone
dozen or more Americans, among theist tt lien
ladies. I may as well confess, at once, to it
toning sympathy with the “assassins," although
I do nut, of course. defend die blundering, reek
less mode devised by the “conspirators." and
resorted to by Orsini. It was Italian, all over.
Nu Yankee would have even dreamed of such
reekless, unmitigated coin foolery—could not,
by any possibility, have been guilty of it. Ira,.
organization of Amet icons were to deem it ne
cessary to the liberty of their country to kilt
Louis Napoleon. they would select a loan for
the deed able to hit any blotto' lot his coat. or
I tooth in his head. with a rilie ball. it a 111.11,1
yards, or a pistol ball rat fifteen. The ides of
as infernal machine, which might kill tole or
two hundred innocent persons, while it was de
sirable to kill only one particular guilty one,
would never enter the head of a Yankee.
But, apart from the 'node or aopoytio g to
execute the deed, the killing of Leads Napoli•,
on is, I think, jostifiable. As within, I can say
on - the subject, however, would be u tithe as
forcible as the argumerts of the "consproors"
themselves, I will give you the substance of the
reply of one of them, made in my presence, to
an American gentleman, who mildly. but firm
ly contehdA that, "Alter all, no provocation
justifies assassination."
"I am no longer a boy," replied the •`coospir
ntor,'' told epithets have no terror for me. I
regard not words, but acts, facts, eiiiitlitions;
motives, purposes. The idea of using it single
word, expressive of odium to de:•i;;mtte every
act of taking human lite by surprise—an :e•t
which may be performed under tt conei less ca•
riety of circumstances, for a million different
purposes, and from us many distinct motives as
there are sands in the sea—is too seriously ab
surd for either criticism or ridicule ; and I can
not think, I will not believe that nu•n wh are

In ihe deadrof Charles Lerthhart. this cent

hers, and the church ono of its brightest orna.
meets.
Although Mr. Leabhart has been in this hit
msdinte neighborhood but one year; the gym'
pithy and grief which his sickness and death
awakened, told how truly his earnest and of
fectionate disposition had endeared him to
ever• one.
13 business transactions were cbaracteri•
red by honor nail the strictest integrity. In
his intercourse with society, he wan courteous,
kind and obliging. Above all he was truly a
(Animist). His was not n profession merely.
His walk and conversation bare evidence that
he had “been with Christ and learned of Him.'
Ho was a living epistle, known and read of
all men.' At the time of his death, he was the
superintendent of the 'Methodist Sabbath
School in McConnellstown. His loss in this
capacity is irreparable.
The youth who, from Sabbath to Sabbath
were wont to duster around him, will sadly
miss in him a faithful monitor, and a bright
exam pine
lie was a kind and devoted husband—a ten
der father—an affectionate son and brother.
To his bereaved widow and little children,
bath the Shepherd of Israel not said, Leave
thy fatherless child;en. I will preserve them
alivtt; and let thy widows trust in me.
Long may his memory and his ehristiaa ex

Rest in peaceful slumber rest thee,
Jesus Christ shall keep thy dust;
And on the m . trn of Resurrection,
Ho shall wake thee with the just.
