THE BALTIMORE TROUBLES.
THE NEW POLICE COMMISSIONERS
SEIZED BY THE HADICAI. REB
ELS
A Collision Hourly Expected
The troubles in Baltimore between
the Governor and the Radical Rebels are
thickening. After a full examination of
the charges of malfeasance against the po
lice commissioners of the city, and after
being fully satisfied of their guilt Governor
Swann.iu the exercise of his duty declared
their seats vacant and appointed two con-
Messrs. Valiant and Young, in
their stead. After being duly qualified
they proceeded to the public buildings and
made a formal demand of the old Commis
sioners,of the public buildings property and
papers. A warrant was issued by a J edge
Bond, a most violent radical, whereupon
they, the newly appointed commissioners,
were seized and huiried off to Jail. All
business ir. the city is suspended and a col
lision is hereby expected—Gens, Grant
and Canby are at the city and is reported
to have several regiments under marching
*nder to quell any disturbance of the peace.
A writ of hubeas corpus has been issued
by one of the judges of the supreme court
which, if respected, will probably result in
their release: -Serious riots and disturban-
r.es are frequently occurring and still more
BerioQs work is hourly expected.
MEXICO. —For the last time, probably,
it is said the French troops arc soon to be
withdrawn from Mexico. Minister Camp
bell and General Sherman having received
-orders to proceed at once to that country,
it is evident that a crisis of some sort has
arrived or is about to arrive in its destiny.
If the French troops are to be withdrawn,
-with Maximilan at their head, it will re
quire the immediate intervention of this
Government to settle the local differences
existing between the lival contestants for
power. Without some outside influence
of a powerful character the country would
undoubtedly soon relapse into a worse con
dition than before or during the Umpire.—
It is said that our Government has already
entered into an agreement wpb the Jurez
branch, and that it will be recognized and
•upported with material aid, if necessary,
against Ortega and all other aspirants. In
consideration of tha* support the United
States are to get a large portion of the ter
ritory of Chihuahua, nearly the whole of
Sonora, and all of the peninsula of Lower
California. The line has not yet been fix
ed, but will run from the Kio Grande, near
El Paso, to the Gulf of California, includ
ing the port ofGuaymas. These will he
important and substantial gains. We will
aeotfre not only new routes to the Pacific
and entire control of the Gulf of California,
but acquire about a thousand miles of sea
coast—fmm Cape Lucas to Sao Diego.
Four negroes are now serving on juries
in Boston—one in the Superior Couit for
criminal business, one in the first session of
the Stiperor Court for civil bu>iness, and
two in the second session. The Boston
Common wealth, the organ of Senator Sum
ner, chronicles tlds fact as showing that the
idea of negro equality has been lifted into
more vitalized existence by the late elec
lions. Those of our people who thought
that negro equality wa* not an is-ue in the
late contest in this State,will now find they
were in error. Each Radical triumph is a
step nearer to the equality of the w'dte aud
Ihe negro race in this country.
GENERAL JOIIN F. IIAKTRANST, Aud.
General of Pennsylvania, has accepted the
appointment of Colonel in the regular ar

Secretary of War, and will leave his offic.*,

The Radicals of New York city have
been detected in the preparation of the
grossest naturalization frauds. Four offi
cials have been arretted and held for trial
for preparing fraudulent papers, and upon
one of 1 them hundreds of lorged blanks
were found. So it goes. The old shoddy
thieves must'do something to "keep their

A Leading Army Olßcer to Accompany Min

MEXICO CEDES A LARGE TERRI
TORY TO THE UNITED STATES.
W \BiiinQTon, Monday, Oct. 29, 1866.
Coloskl Lewis D. Camfß'.ll, ths Uni
ted States Minister to Mexico, left this city
ast evening with credentials addressed to
the Juarez Government, ai.d with full in
structions, conforming in every respect
with the tripartite arrangement b tween
the United States, France, and the Repub
lic of Mexico.
Mr. Campbell will probably visit bis
home in Ohio, cm route to Mexico.
Under the airangein nt now perfected
Napoleon is to commence the withdrawal
of the French army ftotn Mexico next
month ; and although he has a year from
that time to Complete the evacuation of
M x co. it is more than probable that the
whole army will he withdrawn by or before
the first ot January next.
Of course, with the withdrawal of the
French army Maximilian takes his de|ar
.ure, and the farce of an empire on the
North America Continent is eud -d.
It is proper to state that this determina
tion of the political government of Mexico
has he n attained through amicable nego
tiations with all partes interest-d.
In view of the great political changes
anticipated in Mexico under the adjustment
of Per governmental affairs brought about
under this management, and the weakness
of the Jaurez Government afterthe piotrac
ted wars that have been forced upon it, to
maintain its existence it ha* becme im
perative—in the interests of all nations
concerned —that a stable government should
he guaranteed to her by some responsible
power. It is possible tint the term ''guar
anteed" i* rath-r strong to express the re
lations assumed toward the Republic by
the Government of the United States; but
the Administration und rtakes to extend
to the Jaurez Government in M xico a
protectorate, which is to be operative, how
ever, only in case of an em< rjjency, In
plainer terms, our amy on the Kio Grande,
and our fleet in the Gulf, are to be held in
readiness to assist J uart-z should such a
si tance become necessary to hiin in estah
lishing Ills auLfiority as President rf the
Republic, and in bringing to work ill full
vigor the machinery of a republican gov
ernrae •
In or ler to an intelligent exercise of
this possible armed intervention, the Ad -
ministration has determined to send with
Minister Campbell a military officer of
high ra k, eminent abilities, and sound
judgment, clothed with p wcr to act in the
emergency referred to. Lieutenant-Gen
eral \V. T hrrman is n<>w spok*n of in
this connection, and al-o Major-G< neral
\V. S. Hancock. The lesp.msible mis
sion, it is strongly indicated has b- en ten
dered to General Sh- rman; but should he
decline, General Hancock will undoubted
ly be sent.
It is no part f the pan to move any
Coifed States force into Mexico until an j
ot casio" shall arise to render such a resort
necessary. But it is hoped that the atti
tude assumed by the United States thus
publicly, in sending an officer to Meiico
clothed with this p >wer, will be sufficient
to overawe the vraious political leader- of
that country, and the numerous rival fac
tions that beset the land, and lead to a
unanimous submission to and support of
the. only gnveri m<nt that has any preten
sions to regularity and Constitutionality, or
any ability to establish and maintain itself.
In consideration of he friendly offices
thus assumed bv the Government of this
country toward Mexico, the government of
that country, which is thus recognized and
established, agree to cede a portion of
their territo-v to the United States The
precise loiin<lary of the territory thus to
be ceded it is n*t possible to give ; but the
future southwestern boundary line of the
United States will probably leave the Rio
G r ar.de at or near the point where it now
does, but taking a more south, rly comae,
will run in a straight line to '.he Gulf of
I""nltfornis, striking that Gulf at a jioint
of G'tayma*. tm as to inelude that import
ant seaport within the limits of the I nitod
States. We then gain the whole of the
peninsula of Ixiwer Californi , with the
more valuable portions of Sor.ora and
I Chihuahua, with all their immensely rich
, deposits of piec'ous metals, the
ed n vigation of the Gulf of Calif* rnia. and
a much shorter and more practicable route
to the Pacfflhc coast.

TllE .CROSBY OPERA HOUSE
ART ASSOCIATION.
(From Chicago Times.)
The success of this—the moststupendoua
Art enterprise of the nineteenth century—
is already an accomplished fact. The as
surance of Mr. CrnsDy fo that effect, streng
thened by the Concurrent testimony of the
wealthy and influential Committee appoint- j
ed to superintend the drawing, and the per
sonal guarantee of Samuel M. Nickerson, j
Ksq. (a gentleman whose undoubted integ
rity is backed to unlimited pecuniary
means,) has appeared in a former issue of
this paper. The sale of certificates has
been rapid and immense, and frilly justified
thus far the expectations of the most san
guine ; hut a large number still remain in
the hand- of agents scattered all over the
country, the extreme shortness of time (as
originally lim'ted) precluding the po>.-ibil
ity of their sale before the date of drawing.
One article, which has seriously retard
ed sales, has been the absolute imposstbilitv
of furnishing engravings as fast as required.
Although the presses Gf the Association
have been worked night and day, the de
mand has far exceeded the supplv,
Afiei duly Considering this, Mr. Crosby
has concluded—injustice to the interests
he represents, and in deference to the wish •
of the public, which (so far as can le as- ,
curtained) is almost universal—to delay .
for a short time the closing of the subscrip* '
tion books, so as to extend the area of mem
bership as widely as possible.
In adopting this course, the Actuary has
consulted the members of the Committee
on drawing and others, who agree with
the management that a short extension of
time will nmpiy suffice, at the present rap- !
id ra'e of sale, t> dispose of tliu remaining
certificates. Tie- names of the Committee j
are a sufficient guarantee of the soun Iness
and disinterestedness of their advice, as
thorough and competent business men :

too firmly established to dmit of a mo

No one who can form an approximate idea
of the enormous scope and magnitude of
thi truly wonderful enterprise involving
as it has from the moment of its organiza
tion (barely three months ago) the estab
lishment of hundreds ot local agencies in

Tin 1 Management. would Announce that
till* time broiled for the Closing of the
Books has been found too short to complete
an otidert kmg of such magnitude.
The sales have been very large—suffi
cient to iusure the entire success of the en
terprise. Had it been possible, within
the short time allowed, to have furnished
the Engravings RS fst as they have been
required, there is not the least doubt that
every certificate would now have been
disposed of.
There has been a genera' desire, ho-vev
er. to receive the Engravings at the time of
subscription, and the difficulty heretof-rc
of f dly complying with this d- sire has ma
terially retarded t' e progress, of the sale.
A portion of the certificates consequent
ly remain unsold. The Committee agree
with the management that the books should
not be closed, when a short exti-ns on of
the time, at the present rapid rate of sales,
would suffice to dispose of the remaining
certificates.
The subscription books will, therefore,
be continued open for a short time longer.
The day for the Award of Premiums will
soon be announced.

more than the entire State of Rhode Island.
In population it ranks the fourth county

BOLTON'* HOTEL,
The following not ce, clipped from the
Fuiriot Sc Union, in reference to the "Bol
ton House" and its proprietor GEO. J. BOL
TOW, who was formerly t>f this place, is a
well-eaMied and richly deserved tribute to
the talents, ability and energy of that gen
tlqpian.
Our friend, G. W, Huntef, the cl-rk of
the house, who has a knack of making his
guest feel so much at home, we see, too, is
earning tor himself golden opinions,
, There are few men who have achiered
a higher reputation as a h<iel keeper than
our friend George J. Rolton, proprietor
and manager of Bolton's Hotel in Market
Square A number of years experience
in the business, both in th;R place and Cape
May. has secured for him a reputation
which ca'-not fail t-i continue is the future.
His well-known stand in this place,which
for many years was calh-d ihe "Buelder
House," has so materially improved un
der his management that it is no more
than justice to him that we make mention
of the fact. One year ago a new story was
added to the budding, which was a decided
improvement, and the rcoms have been re
papered, refitted and refurnished through
out. Tins was (.one at a great cost, in
volving an expenditure of thousands 0 f
dollars. From beginning to end the
house is a pattern of good order, and the
largely increased patronage bestowe I up
on Mr Bolton shows that th-; pubi c, in
some degree, appreciate the improve
ments ho has made. Every apartment j*
provided with gas and water, and the beds
for cleanliness and comfort, are not ex
celled in the State. Three hath oomsare
upon the first floor,which avoids the necessi
ty ot guests going to unwholeome places for
comforts of the kind. The table is well
supplied with every variety the market
affords, and the servants, ol whom there, is
a goodly number, are attentive and ohlig
ing. No other house in Pennsylvania ha
a b.*tter reputation, and it can be said with
truth this reputation is deserved. Those
who canqoi find com'orts snd convenien
ces at this house, ne<-d not expect to find
them at any hotel. Evt-rv person who
knows anything about a public house, will
admit that much of its perfection depends
upon its chief clerk. JPe need only to
refer to Mr. George VV. Hunter, the gen
tlemanly and i fficieut change de affaires, to
Hay all that is needed in that particular.—
\\ e will conclude this article hv saving,
that Harrisburg is fortunate in havincr Bol
ton'* Hotel, and in Mr. Bolton a its plo
- Idle latter is popular every where
an I w< hope his stand will long continue
in ts present excellent condition, and the
worthy host reap a handsome reward for
his 'abors."
American Manufactures—the American
Walch Co. of Wattbain, Mass.
Everv one knows that the mechanism of
the best manufactories of this country is
unequalled in any other part of the woild.
The genius of American mechanics pro
duced .-otton-giii, the tnecuunicHl reaper
and in wer, the sowing machine, and last,
but not h a-t, the wonderful machinery of
the American Watch Company of Wal- j
thani. This Company was established in
1850, an 1 has grown in proportions which
entitle it to a first rank amor - the manu
facturing enlerprizcs of the New World.
It .employs between DoO and 1,000 arti.
zans ofenpciior skill and character, and a
large and thriving town has grown up in
its vicinity. The factory covers over th. ee
acres ..f ground, and as an illustration of
its extent, we ma\ mention that it is sup
plied with more than 60 miles of iron pipes
and produce* an aggregate of nearly 75,00#
watches p-r annum. Die ft.tin iers of this
Company believed that the same delicate
mechanical processes which had produced
such leinarkably perfect results in larger
machines, might b.- applied with even
greater advantage loth production of the
watch. Tin-foreign time pieces are made
principally by hand, and except when of
liigu cost, an imperfect anic e, often out of
lepair, and xflittle value is the result. —
Abroad, these mysterious and infinitesimal
organs which, when aggregated, produce
the watch, are the truit of slow and toil
some tnanuei processes In the results,
Cicre must of course be lack of that per
fect uniformity whi-h is indispensable for
correct time-keeping. The constituent
parts of the American watch, on the other
hand, are fashioned by the most delicate
and accurate machinery. Wheels, pin
ions, springs, screws, absolutely uniform in
weight, circumference, dimensions, and in
every possible particular, are turned out
in myriads by unerring finger of steel,
and their proper combination and adjust
ment by skillful workmen have given the
Company its high reputation. Its watch
es tot only go with the the trade and go in
the pockets of 200,000 people, but they
go right and go everywhere. — Exchange.
A CROSS WOMAV. —Tne idea of a wo
man getting cross and ugly when thing* in
the family do not run quite as smoothly as
they should, is simply ridiculous. She
mako herself an obj ct ot loathing and
contempt whenever sh is guilty of such
nonsense. The Almighty has created her
for a purpose entirely different to this in
sane and foolish indulgence in Hngry pas
sions He has made her beautiful and at
tractive in her person, endowed her with
sensibilities and refinements of mind and
manner which, when properly cultivated,
bad to the elevatior. of the higher and ho
lier feelings of nature. Think of being
thus constituted getting cross 011 every
trifling occasion. How she insults 'he
Creator, and prostitutes th--se excellent
qualities which the Rtern sex do not. possess,
and which seem to be reserved by heaven
for her alone. Think of this, fair woman,
whenever the devil temp s you tosiD.—
You may forfeit all within your grasp;
worldly happiness, personal esteem, do
mestic felicity, that peace of mind which
arises from a consciousness of duty well
and faithfully performed, and what is more
than all, you may forfeit the favor of your

Encouraging.—A short time sirne a friend (?)
called on us, and expressed gr at satisfaction at our
course ; and at the same lime wished that we might
be successful. As to the radical disunionists ha
hoped we would still continue to cry aloud and
spare not. We of course felt very much gratified
at this endorsement of our cause, and modestly
hinted to our admiring friend that he did no/ bit
aught fo subscribe for he Democrat.
• '-W-a-a li," said he," "I would take your paper,
but Mr. W., a near neigh-orof mine takes it, and
we get it and read it every week ju -t the same, so
I think it won't hardly pay for me to subscribe "
We were, and still are awa'e of the fact that bi„
neighbor takes our paper, and also of Hnot ber fact
(hat his kind neighbor has not from the beginniug,
(1861) now upwards of five years, paid us a single
larthiug for it. This our enthusiastic, admiring
friend can see every week, if he reads the date on
the address label on it. Comment on this state of
facts is unnecessary. We do tbiuk, however, that
it won't pay for us to supply several families with
a paper at so cheap a rate to them. We hope our
dead-head subscribers will net hereafter be{so gener
ous in lendiag not their own , but our paper to their
neighbors.
This kind of encouragement is very cheap to the
donor, and really don't go a groat way in paying
printers, purchasing paper, ink, Ac.
A very different kind of encouragement was con
tained in the following letter recently received from
a friend IS-DKID.
