ot the whole question, ftul warns its

boasting of tho Northern Democrats
about ilia political tide turning in their

only arouse tlio Republicans to more
vigorous exertions in future contests.
So strong, it says, is the hatred to tho
Democratic pal ly among tho Northern
people that it can not, under any c'u-
eimmaiices anaiii permanent power,
not even with a united South to aid
them. But, aceordiiiL to tho authority

on Southern politicians. Tho icpeal d
the Missouri Compromise and tho ef
forts to t ueo flavery into Kansas were
originated by Northern Presidential as
piran'ti, They were brought forward to
seciuo Southern support ; they were
tho cause of our late troubles, which.
instead id" being bciicuYial to tho South,
k sill ed in forcing upon that auction
whatitmos- thoroughly detests negro
6 .UVagi'. The South, in view of the in
cah'iilible mischief entailed upon its
people, because ot ils old connection
Willi the Northern Democracy, seems
anxious to avoid any future ulliuuco with
that paity. The Virginia paper which
wo havo quoted, warns i,s readers to
beware ot this, admonishing iheni that,
any connection with it will servo to unite
the great Northern lfepnblican parly
inoiu thoroughly, and cause the Radi
cal trumpets to sound idiesh for "a new
crusade against the Southern people "
This, it predict, will bo lli.j result if the
Northern Democracy niako too much
m ise over their temporary triumph
even in u single Norihurn Slate. In
tact the election iu Connecticut was not
won by a genuine Democratic ticket.
Mr. Itnglish, (he successful candidate
for Governor, sustained tli war through,

abolition ot slavery in tho district of
Columbia, ami fully endorsed Mr. Lin

Connecticut Democrats nominated a
t,muuuio who had sustained their pu.ly,
in opposition to the inen.-ures we luivu
mentioned, they would have been beaten
by the usual majority.

Iho rittsburg lisputch relates some
ot tho facts couieriiing the horrible
murder of tho old nan David Spt oiill, at
his rusideiiuu m Washington" county,
ubout fourteen idles from that cily,
and is still frusli in tho minds of o r
readers. It will b remembered that on
tho night of the 15th ot March last.thrco
men visited the lntiso whero resided
Mr. Sproull and li il aged sister. They
demanded money, and outfit old man
remarking that lio,lwould know them

was taken up slain and tied to a bed
post, after which tie villians ransai'ked
tho house for momy, but got for their
horrible deed but tie paltry sum of one
hundred and sixtedi dollars.
Following so chsely upon the other
horror the Dinsnoro murder in the

about tho oppuaraiso ot the men, their

Ao., were diligent'
ly hunted up. A full investigation of
tho circumstances of the visit of tho two
men a week before, representing them
selves as cattle dealers i their movements
before and after the murder, wus also
carefully inquired into. These searches
aud inquiries added lo the known move
ments ot certain well known characters,
conviuocd the officers ot justioD that
somo of the 'Trotessionala" of tho city
had a hand in the utl'air. Everything
being arranged a deseout was made on
that well known resort, tho "Irwin
IIouso," where it was expected to cap

knowledge of tlio transaction. It result
ed in tho arrest of but ono of tha men

were much chagrined nt learning that
another, and it is supposed, a principal

another arrest was mado on Filth street,
tho prisoner being one Thomas Whit

who aro known to be in or about town.
On Monday night while Bird was oc
cupying a cell in the lock up Squire
Strain held a conversation with him,
during which tho prisoner showed signs
ot considerable alarm, and finally ao
knowledged that hu knew something of
Iho affair,, but positively denved anv

the whole thing was planiiu I in jail; that
among the prisoners there, at ilm time
ho and certain others were there, was a
