PETTENGILL are Agents for The Lancaster Intelligencer, and the most influential and largest circulating Newspapers in the United States and the Canadas.They are authorized to contract for us at our lowest rates MONEY: MONEY We want, and must have money to meet our engagements. We have debts to pay, and can only discharge them by collecting from our Books.

Persons indebted, and there are hundreds of delinquents, will please come forward and pay what they owe us; or, if they cannot call in person, let them send it by a friend, or remit by mail at our risk. We prefer either of these plans to sending out bills by a collector; for our uniform experience has been that, after the collector takes out of the small sum he generally receives twenty five per cent. for his trouble, and forgets to make a return of about twentyfive per cent. more, there is precious little left to hand over to the Printer! If we did not need money, we would not thus address delinquents. But we have no choice in the matter; we must have money in order to keep our heads above water.

PRETTY WELL FOR MARYLAND: Notwithstanding the infamous outrages committed by the Plug Uglies and their Know Nothing sympathisers and abettors, in Baltimore, through which thousands of quiet and peaceable citizens were kept away from the polls, the Democrats in other portions of the State did remarkably well, and have elected a majority in both branches of the Legislature, and three of the six members of Congress. The City of Baltimore has become a plague spot in that ancient Commonwealth, and unless some plan is speedily devised to suppress the rioting and disorder, there is no telling what it may lead to. No man's life is any longer safe in its streets after night fall. The municipal and police authorities either wink at the outrages of the ruffian mobs, or are powerless in the way of suppressing the evil. The city is in terror, and is now as completely under the control of rowdies and cut-throat villains as was Paris during the darkest period of the French Revolution, when Robespierre and his blood-thirsty colleagues kept the gullotine in motion day and night without intermission.The election riots in Baltimore for the last four or five years form the darkest page in our country's history.

Fortunately for the character of the old State whose history is graced with 1 the name of Charles Carroll, of Carrolton, the people outside of Baltimore appear to have very little sympathy with the ruffianism that prevails there. CONVICTION OF BROWN. OSSAWATTOMIE BROWN, the leader of the Abolition mob at Harper's Ferry, has been convicted on all the counts of the indictment preferred against him, viz: riot. treason and murder. His counsel made effort to set aside the verdict, on the ground that, because he was not a citizen of Virginia, he could not commit treason against the State.

But the Court over ruled the objection, and sentenced the prisoner to be hanged on Friday the 2nd of December. BROWN made a short address before the sentence, and when the Judge pronounced his doom he received it with composure. COPPEE and GREEN, his companions, have also been convicted on all the counts in the indictment, and will likewise be sentenced to death. The others under arrest will all be tried, and, doubtless, share the same fate. BEECHER, PHILLIPS AND CORWIN.

The Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, (Rev. HENRY WARD BEECHER's,) presented an extraordinary scene on Tuesday night last. WENDELL PHILLIPS, of Boston, was announced to deliver the fourth lecture of the "Plymouth Course," his subject being Lessons for the Hour," but without at all addressing himself to that subject, he launched into a glowing eulogy of John Brown, the condemned traitor who headed the recent insurrection at Har per's Ferry, and for an hour, amid the applause of such audiences as drink in the teachings of Ward Beecher, portrayed Brown as the Saviour of his Country, a greater than Washington, and himself and his associates patriots and martyrs. He justified every act of John Brown's life, whether in Kansas or at Harper's Ferry, and no matter how bloody; declared the plot developed at Harper's Ferry a God sanctioned effort against tyranny, and legitimate fruit of anti-slavery doctrine and teachings. He was proud of the effort Brown had made.

and exclaimed, God be thanked for John Brown. This is a great country to live in now. I expected and do expect insurrection. IT IS THE RESULT OF ANTISLAVERY TEACHING." So much of the harangue as was not eulogistic of Brown was devoted to violent denunciation of the Government and the boldest proclamation of the most treasonable sentiments. THOMAS CORWIN of Ohio, now on a missionary tour to aid the New York Republians, was upon the platform with PHILLIPS.

It is mournful reflect that the temples of God are thus made forums from which to fulminate open treason and praise of bloodshed. Will our neighbor of the Lancaster Union be so kind as to inform the public that Rev. HENRY WARD BEECHER, WENDELL PHILLIPS and THOMAS CORWIN, above spoken of, have been for years, and still are, "burning and shining lights" in the great Black Republican household, and will he publish PHILLIPS' lecture justifying the murders and outrages committed by old BROWN and his party, Harper's Ferry? PLUG UGLYISM: One branch of the Opposition committed the triple crimes of murder, robbery and treason, at Harper's Ferry other branch- Know Noth -have placed the city of Baltimore completely at the mercy of cut throats, ruffians and desperadoes of the most abandoned character. The State election in Maryland took place on Wednesday last, and as was to have been expected, although we had faint hopes of better things, another bloody riot, provoked and carried out by the row dies and bullies, the Plug Uglies, and others of that ilk calling themselves Native Americans, took place. Several persons were killed, and many wounded, and the Reformers, finding that a protracted struggle was useless, and that any attempt to vote only imperilled their lives, retired from the contest at an early hour, leaving the polls and the election entirely in the hands of a mob who disgrace the name of American freemen.

The police, who are under the control of that ruffian party, made no attempt to preserve order, and no arrests were made. William P. Preston, Democratic candidate for Congress, was badly beaten on the head by the rowdies, and is confined to his bed from the injuries he received. Such is the opposition to the Democratic party in the city of Baltimore! What is to be the end of these things no mortal can tell. It will soon be a query, if such conduct is tolerated, whether we live in a civilized or barbarous age of the world.

Our neighbor of the Union is entirely too sensitive. We had no idea last week that our on the Harper's Ferry Insurrection, origin of which we justly charged to the teachings of the Republican leaders, would up his bile to the extent they have done. However, we do not recognize in the Union articles, in which we are attacked with such bitterness and savage ferocity, 1 the writing of amiable friend, COCHRAN, who does up fancy localizing and sentimentalism for Abolition organ, par excellence, of the Old Guard." On the contrary, we think optics can trace in them the slovenly of an ill natured, lubberly, overspecimen of humanity, who hails not grown hundred miles from Duke Street. Be that it may, however, the abuse we refer to is argument, nor has the Union attempted answer any of our articles. In fact the writer does not pretend to do so, and could if he did, deny the truthfulness of them.

can substantiate, by proofs strong as Writ, the damning evidence of what have alleged against the Republican leadand shall continue to hold them up in true colors to the public gaze. The abuse of the Union has no terrors for us. We continue to pursue the even tenor of way," and show who are the really reparties for the murder, treason, and sponsible robbery practised at Harper's Ferry; and if, so doing, the shoe pinches our neighbor or Black Republican scribblers for his paper leaders of his party, we cannot help it, however much we may regret the irascible ill-natured temper they exhibit. Perhaps the editor of the Union has not seen in print the lecture of WENDELL PHILLIPS, a noted leader of the Republican party, delivered in the Rev. HENRY WARD BEECHER's (another Republican light) Church, Brooklyn, last week.

We feel disposed to enlighten him with the subjoined extract from that infamously treasonable speech. After some general remarks about education, Mr. PHILLIPS went on to say as follows: He proceeded to affirm that education would not secure freedom, and then spoke of the late outbreak at Harper's Ferry in the follow ing strain: It seems as if Virginia asked leave to be of John Brown at Harper's Ferry. Connecticut has sent out schoolmasters other States of the Union, bue she has never sent out one before to write in lines of light the Natural Bridge, and on the nation's. copybook, Resistance to tyrants is obedience God." I said the lesson of the hour was insurrection.

I want to apply that word John Brown, of Ossawatomie. There was insurrection in his case. It is a great mistake to call him an insurgent. What is the Commonwealth of Virginia? She is only a chronic insurrection. I mean exactly what I say I am weighing my words now.

She is a pirate ship, and John Brown sails the sea, the Lord High Admiral of Almighty, with letters of mark and reprisal against every pirate that he meets on board the ocean of the Nineteenth Century. I mean literally and exactly what say. In God's world for a moment there are no majority and no minority one majority. You have often heard, doubtless, and I need not teach you that the rights of one man (Brown) are as sacred as those of the Com monwealth of Virginia. He has as much right to hang Gov.

Wise as Gov. Wise has hang him. You see that am talking of that absolute conscience essence of things that lives in the sight of Eternal and Infinite. In reference to trial of Brown, Virginia, true to herself, shown exactly the same haste that the pirate does when he meant to take a man on deck aud run him on the yard-arm unconsciously. John Brown began his active life in Kansas aud south of that scene he reaped the The South planted the seeds of lence in Kansas; it taught peaceful Northern men familiarity with the bowie knife and revolver.

They planted 999 seeds, and this is first one that flowered, the first drops of coming shower. People do me the honor say, in some of the Western papers, that it traceable to some teachings of mine. It is much honor to such as me. Gladly, if were a fulsome vanity, would I acknowledge the laurel in having any share in the great resolute daring of that man that flung himself against the Emperor in behalf of justice liberty. Up to this moment Brown's life been one of unmixed success.

He bad dence, skill, courage, thrift, knowledge time and knowledge of his opponents, undaunted daring in the face of the nation. This is the man who went down to Harper's Ferry to follow up his work. He has a great deal already, and now Virginia is decent country to live in. Actually in this Sodom of ours seventeen men have been found ready to die for an God be thanked for John Brown. We have redeemed the long infamy of twenty years of subservience.

There is nothing about this. It is the natural results of slavery teaching. For one I accept it, whether that man succeeded in a worldly sense or that he stood as the representative of government, right, justice and religion. were parties that gathered about him and deavored to reap vengeance by taking his on the banks of the Potomac. History visit it more kindly because he (Brown) hallowed it with the eternal brightness of glorious deeds, rather than because the dust Washington rests upon one side of the If Virginia pirates dare to hang him this mockery of a trial, it will take Washingtons at least to make the river thing but abominable for ages to applause and some Well, say what I really think.

John Brown has given u8 something think of. Brown's act is the lesson of age. He was not thrifty he did not late closely enough, and he was defeated.Hundreds of well armed troops, continued the speaker, never dared to pull a trigger.You shot Brown (meaning his hearers) teen marines, to whom you pay $8 a month, went to the disturbed State when it could stand on her own legs for trembling, strengthened the feeble knees; sixteen with the vulture of the Union above covenanted with death, and took the old by the throat with a pirate hand, and it be a disgrace to our civilization if a gallows is ever erected in Virginia that bears upon it. Mr. Phillips then denounced what he the summary manner in which Brown disposed of, observing that if one single of Jeffries remained it would knock the sides of the coffin against any judge debased even the infamy of Jeffries by John Brown.

He knew many would deem him a fanatic for uttering this wholesale vituperation, as it would called, upon a State, and for this indorsement of a madman. They met with the indications of the changes which had been effected in Northern States for the last few years. the first news of the Harper's Ferry said the speaker, came to Massachusetts, you were riding in the cars, or walking the street, the first impulsive expression What a pity he (Brown) did not succeed! what a fool he was for not going off on day night when he had ali he wanted Every man voluntarily seemed to give to his indignation at the farce of a trial. conclusion Mr. Phillips alluded to the sacrificing Mrs.

Childs, who volunteered look after Brown's temporal and spiritual condition, remarking that Gov. Wise had open the door and announce to the world she might go in. John Brown has conquered the tyrant. There is hope everywhere; only the universal history--right on scaffold, wrong for ever on the throne, but scaffold sways the future. Behind the unknown standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own.

The Hon. Mr. Corwin, of Ohio, who present, was loudly called for, and in ence to the demand very properly said he preferred to reflect upon what he had before he gave his vote. This was an to Mr. Phillips' introductory remarks.

articles the stir THE SHOE PINCHES! KANSAS OFFICIAL VOTE. At the recent election held in Kansas, on the adoption or rejection of the Constitution, the following is the official result: For the Constitution 10.419 Against the Constitution 5,530 For the Homestead Law 8,753 Against the Homestead Law 4,772 THE DAMNING RECORD. the The Black Republicans are ashamed to acknowledge the Harper's Ferry Insurgents as their brothers; and some of them denounce Oid Browa and his dupes in good set terms. but At a meeting in New York, the other night, toes a Mr. Briggs even went so far as to say that he would hang anybody as high as Haman who should go South and deliberately attempt to incite insurrection.

But the Black Republicans cannot blot out the damning record of their treasonable utterances- utterances which, in other times and in other lands, would have brought their authors to the gibbet and the dungeon. Below, we subjoin a few of the sayings of the many-hued Repub lican Party, omitting those of the crazy men and women who rank as distinctive Abolitionists-the Garrisons, the Douglasses, and the Abby Kellys. Read the record: Gen. James Watson Webb -A Republican leader, said in the Philadelphia Convention: is "If we (meaning the Abolitionists) fail there, (at the ballot box) what then! We will drive it (slavery) back sword in hand, and, so help me God! believing that to be right, I am with them." Horace Greeley, a Republican:" I have no doubt the free and slave States ought to be separated. The Union is not worth supporting in connection with the South." Josiah Quincy, Republican, of Boston: "The deliver obligation incumbent on the is free States to up fugitive slaves that burden, and it must be obliterated from the Constitution at every hazard." Mr.

Banks, present Republican Governor of Massachusetts "I am not one of those men who cry for the perpetuation of the Union, though I am willing, in a certain state of circumstances, to let it slide." Mr. Burlingame, a Republican Congressman: When we shall have elected a President, as we will, who will not be the President of a party, nor of a section, but the Tribune of the people, and after we have exterminated a few more miserable doughfaces from the North, then, if the Slave Senate will not give way, we will grind it between the upper and nether millstone of our power." Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois- -a leading Republican of the West: I believe this government cannot endure to permanently haif slave and half free. I do not expect the house to fall, but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or the other. Either the oppo nents of slavery will arrest the further spread of it, and place it where the public mind shall to rest in the belief that the course of ultimate extinction, or its advocates will push forward till it shall become alike lawful in all the States -old as well as new, North as well as South." Senator Wilson, Republican, of Massachusetts: Let us remember that more than three the millions of bondmen, groaning under nameless woes, demand that we shall cease to reprove each other, and that we labor for their deliverance.

I tell you here, to night, that the agitation is of this question of human slavery will continue while the foot of a slave presses the soil of the American Republic. We shall change the Supreme Court of the United States, and place men in that Court who believe with its pure and immacu to late Chief Justice, John Jay, that our prayers will be impious to while we sustain and and support human slavery." the Benjamin F. Wade, U. S. Senator from the Ohio, Republican leader: has There is really no union now between the North and the South, and he believed that no two nations upon the earth entertained feelings of more bitter rancor towards each other than these two nations of the Republic.

There never was an hour when this blasphemous and infamous called government should be made, and now the hour was was to be prayed for when that disgrace to bone humanity should be dashed to pieces forever." against that Senator W. H. Seward, Republican, in his trying Rochester speech, said that These antagonistic systems are continually coming into closer contact, and collision be results. Shall I tell you what this collision means They who think that it is accidental, unnecessary, the work of interested or fanatithe cal agitators, and therefore ephemeral, mistake When the case altogether.

Giddings, a Republican Congressman, in a speech, said: allusion look forward to the day when there shall be a SERVILE INSURRECTION IN THE SOUTH -when the torch of the incendiary shall light up the towns and cities of the South on and blot out the last vestige of Slavery.

And though I may not mock at their calamitynor laugh when their fear cometh, yet I will hail it as the dawn of a political millenium." We commend the above sayings, of acknowledged Black Republican leaders, to the careful consideration of the Republican press, and especially to our somewhat excited neighbor of the Lancaster Union. We are sorry to disturb the equanimity of his temper, but the truth must be told, no matter by Johnson, of Baltimore, has recently been published, entitled Remarks on Popular Sovereignty," as maintained, and denied respectively by Judge Douglas and Attorney General Black. He maintains the following propositions: First--That Congress has no power to prohibit slavery in unorganized Territories. Second -That Congress has no power to prohibit slavery in the Territories after they have been organized under Territorial Governments. Third- That Congress has no power to establish slavery in a Territory that slavery the creature of positive law, and may exist either by statute or custom.

Fourth--That if Congress can neither prohibit nor establish slavery in a Territory, it cannot legislate to protect or regulate it. Fifth -Territorial government can admit, protect or exclude slavery, at any time during its existence. By the way, is there to be no end to this controversy among these prominent gentlemen about Popular Sovereignty? First we had an elaborate essay from Senator DOUGLAS, next a reply from Attorney General BLACK, then a rejoinder from Senator DoUGLAS, then a surrejoinder from the Attorney General, and now an elaborate argument from Attorney General JOHNSON to prove the truth of the above propositions. We think is about time to quit this useless warfare, as not one person in a thousand will ever think of wading through the apparently interminable controversy. The following remarks from the Harrisburg Patriot de Union are the point exactly, and we hope the wholesome advice proffered will be heeded in high quarters: The Fencing Match of the Giants.

Senator Douglas, Attorney General Black and ex-Attorney General Johnson are exhibiting their skill in dialectic fence. They wield heavy and trenchant weapons, which have been kept bright and sharp by long and constant use, and they are masters in their art. They deal and receive telling blows. They display infinite resources and agility. The spectacle which they afford is viewed with great gratification by a certain number of politicians throughout the land, who enjoy an exhibition of science and skill upon any important subject and the stage of the per formers is 80 high that the individuals scattered here and there, who take interest in the drama, have had an opportunity watch the progress of the set-to.

But the number of spectators is much smaller than might be supposed. We do not know of more than one individnal in Harrisburg, a city fifteen thousand inhabitants, who has followed the controversy through all the lengthy arguments on either side, and he has done because, holding peculiar opinions, he been anxious to test them by every new and argument. Now, if there is only person in Harrisburg who follows this long, althoug giant, debate, it is fair to presume that the number of general spectators exceedingly limited. Indeed, the nation excited upon more important issues, upon questions whieh involve the very existence the Republic and the Union. The mob gained possession of a city the irrepressible conflict has been inaugurated between sections.

There are matters for thought and action by men and parties which involve our domes tic happiness and our national existence. Treason and lawlessness are rearing their heads, and it seems antiquated and unseasonable to be now splitting hairs about theory of territorial government. Territorial government is anomalous and abstract, does not come home to the interest and feeling of the people at this moment. We suggest these honorable men that they turn their skill, their strength and their formidable blades against the common enemy. They remind us of the venerable senators of Rome, were engaged in the discussion of who should command the legions iu a distant province, when the Gauls were about seizing the ital.

We hope these present dignitaries not have their beards pulled while similarly toes may be tramped by the caustic operation. A POLITICAL MANIFESTO. An elaborate political pamphlet Reverdy engagedin a very grave but useless discussion. REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE. The Black Republicans of Vermont, at a recent Convention, adopted the following resolution, the perusal of which we strongly recommend to ou rgood natured neighbor, the Editor of the Lancaster Union.

The resolution reads as follows: Resolved, That every true Anti Slavery American is imperatively bound to labor might and main' for the total and immediate abolition of American slavery, either through the instrumentality, or over the ruins, of the United States Constitution. This is about a faithful translation, into plain language, of Mr. Seward's "irrepressible conflict" doctrine, upon which the Republicans generally are required to stand. Fight to the death for the negro is their motto; they don't care a fig for the poor white man--not they. Fight for the degraded negro, if it should be over the ruins of the Constitution IN FULL COMMUNION.

The Chicago Democrat, a staunch Republi can paper, in defending Brown and his companions, exhibits the most perfect contempt for that portion of the Black Republican press that now back out of the difficulty, in which they find themselves. It says: "This cry of hunting the party used to alarm us. We used to see its ghosts at nights, but now we care only for principles and we are going wherever those principles lead us: and there is nothing that Old Ossawattomie Brown can do will throw the least spot or blemish upon those principles. Thanks to Old Ossawattomie Brown for teaching the slavery propagandists, the nullifiers, the disunionists, the secessionists, the kidnappers, the stealers of negroes from the coast of Africa, the Cuban patriots, and the Walker filibusters, that what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the LATE FOREIGN NEWS. The America, at Halifax, brings Liverpool dates to Saturday, the 22nd ult.

The news is interesting, though not specially important. The departure of the Great Eastern for America had been postponed indefinitely, and would probably not take place this year. The details of the peace treaty of Zurich show it to be but a mere amplification of the Villafranca agreement. By it the rights of the Grand Dukes are reserved. Spain is dis satisfied with the terms offered by Morocco, and war between those powers is considered imminent.

The Sardinian Government had issued a decree for a loan of one hundred million francs. Some interesting experiments have been made with the Atlantic cable.Affairs upon the Continent are still much dis turbed, and many of the Governments are much embarrassed financially. The price of cotton had advanced an eighth at Liverpool. Breadstuffs show a declining tendency. The money market was a trifle more stringent.

THE EUROPEAN CRISIS. The London correspondent of the New York Commercial Advertiser writes that there is a general expectation that some important political announcements will come out in the course of a few days, although no conjectures are stated as to their probable purport. The Emperor Napoleon presided at a Cabinet Council held at St. Cloud, on the 14th to which much importance is said to be attached, and the Emperor of Russia is reported to have summoned his ambassadors from Paris, London and Berlin to meet him at Warsaw, on the 15th. At the same time there is intense activity among the diplomatists at Vienna and Turin, and the Pope has started to Castle Gardolfo to have an interview with the King of Naples.

This movement of the Holy Father bodes ill for the Italian cause, and the activity among the various despotic monarchs is also, perhaps, fatally significant. CITY AND COUNTY AFFAIRS. THE FULTON INSTITUTE EXHIBITION. -From what we can learn. this will be one of the finest and most interesting exhibitions ever held in this State.

The Institute, in its awards, will in all cases discriminate in favor of real merit, that the Judges shall deem justly due; and the Judges are gentlemen selected from the whole county -some forty or fifty, three for each Class who are perfectly disinterested, and have a practical knowledge of the articles of which they are appointed to judge. The grades of award are highly creditable to the Managers of the Institute. There is a Grand Premium of Honor offered to the best and most useful article: For a Lady a fine Gold Watch; for a Gentleman an elegant Silver Pitcher. Also, premiums of Silver and Bronze Medals and Certificates of Merit. Lady Exhibitors will receive articles of utility or ornament agreeably to the several grades of value.

All Exhibitors have the privilege of depositing their articles free of any entrance fee. The Judges are to meet on Saturday. the 19th at Fulton Hall, to make their awards. The Exhibition will open on Monday, the 21st inst. The plan of the interior of the building will be most tasteful and convenient.

The whole of Fulton Hall is engaged and will be fitted up. The Gallery of Fine Arts, for which one of the upper saloons is appropriated, will be so arranged as to exhibit the Paintings in their proper light. The Fencibles' large Armory will be filled with the finer articles. Every Exhibitor who deposits a fine or novel article should attach a full description of its merit and purpose, to enable the Judges to make a fair decision. President Buchanan, Governor Packer, and a number of the most learned and scientific gentlemen in the country have been honored with special complimentary invitations, and the most of them have already accepted and signified their intention of being present.

The Address before the Institute will be delivered by one of the ablest lecturers in the country. It will be a rare treat to the citizens of this city and county. Articles of extreme value and novelty have already been entered from New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. The Managers are all very active, and making every exertion to complete a worthy and creditable exhibition, and we are pleased to learn that at their meeting, the other evening, they were compelled to elect an Assistant Secretary to make the entries of the various articles already crowding in. Inventors, Manufacturers, Producers, should make their entries as early as possible, so that the rooms can be arranged accordingly, and to the best advantage for itors and Depositors, who are allowed to make sales of their articles during the Exhibition, the articles to be delivered to the purchasers at the close thereof.

This arrangement is of such a character as to induce every one to exhibit specimens of their handiwork, and materially add to the credit of the workman. The advantage should therefore not be neglected by any who desire to show their enterprising spirit in work and business for the benefit of the whole community. This being the First Exhibition of the Fulton Institute, gotten up by men of energy and spirit, and on the right principle, it promises to be a grand affair; and as all the net proceeds are to be distributed in premiums, it is of too much importance to be slighted, but the duty of every good citizen to support and encourage it, whilst the name of the distinguished Fulton should be honored with some contribution from every citizen of Lancaster County. The admission fees are such as to create no confusion or impediment. Single tickets, 25 cents.

Children, half price. An Exhibitor by paying one dollar is admitted during the entire Exhibition. The Committee of Superintendence are Messrs. Charles M. Howell, J.

Franklin Reigart, S. S. Rathvon, John Herr, J. Augustus Beck and John F. Heinitsh.

Robert Long, President; William E. Heinitsh, Secretary. LETTER FROM COL. STAMBAUGH. -A letter from Col.

STAMBAUGH, dated Salt Lake, Sept. 30th, 1859, was received last week by his family. Through the kindness of his estimable lady, we are permitted to make the following extracts, which will be read with much interest. It is a source of great gratification to the legion of friends to know that he has arrived safe and sound after his long and perilous journey: "I reached this renowned city, about past 3 o'clock, on Monday, 26th instant. Thank God! Oh! how fervently did I return my thanks to Him for bringing me safely and triumphantly through my long and perilous journey.

Our party is all well. Messrs. Wentz, Miller and Green over. took us in Mail Stage the day after we left Fort Laramie (the 7th inst.) Mr. W.

has entirely recovered of his wound. "I have been busy day and night since my arrival to get the office organized. Everything connected with it was in great confusion -but I had reason to expect nothing else. Gov. Cumming has been engaged since the day after my arrival in turning over the property belonging to the office.

He has acted with great promptness, and evinces every disposition to aid me in getting under way as speedily as possible. "I am staying for the present with Dr. Forney, Superintendent of Indian Affairs. He had part of the house he occupies intended for my use, and sent for me soon after I reached the centre of the city. The house may be large enough for his office and mine, and will save considerable rent to the Government My party is at a public house somewhere in the city boarding, but sleep in the house with me.

I still occupy my tent bed, and sleep on the floor in a little room, without tire-but hope to be more comfortable soon. Dr. Forney has offered me a bed in his own room, but I decline it. "I must stop; am told the stage is about starting, and I must take this to the agent or driver myself. I forgot to say, I have left Major Paul and his escort far behindthey have not yet appeared within hailing distance.

When I lett home, you recollect, I said I could reach Salt Lake by 25th September; arrived one day later. If I had not delayed by the accident to Charley, and had not been tacked to the military escort, I would have gained 5 or 6 days, and would have been here on the 20th. In the 47 days I was out, I had only 38 traveling days. In that time I brought a party who had never been on the Plains, with three wagons, two of them heavily loaded, six-mule teams, over a wilderness of eleven hundred and sixty five miles! After Separating from Maj. command I had no guide, wagon-master, or help of any kind-but I determined to succeed, and I did succeed! Every body seems surprised.

I was not expected for ten days. describe this great city or its people for a few -have been out but little. Several Mormons have called- all expressing the kindest feelings. Things a look well." The Colonel adds a postscript that he will commence his promised letters for The Intelligencer as soon as he gets settled. These will prove deeply interesting and valuable to our readers.

Patterson. FER received an order last week, whilst in Philadelphia, from Adjutant General WILSON, for seventy-five long range rifles for the Jackson Rifles. The order is directed to Capt. HAMBRIGHT, and is on the Ordnance Department at Washington. Thus, after a long and shameful delay, this gallant corps are about getting their stand of arms.

It is, without doubt, the best-drilled and disciplined rifle company in the State, and with their new arms and new uniforms, which we understand they intend providing themselves with shortly, will make an appearance second to none in the country. We congratulate the gentlemanly and indefatigable officers of the Jackson Rifles that their unflagging perseverance has at last received its just reward. All honor to such men 88 Captain HAMBRIGHT, and Lieutenants Cox, REES and NAGLE.

Keyser's Toothache Remedy, prepared by him in Pittsburgh, which is put up in bottles and sold at 25 cents each. It is an excellent medicine, when diluted, for spongy and tender gums, and is worth ten times its price to all who need it. Sold here by C. A. Heinitsh and all Druggists.

A MEDICAL EXAMINATION. -Once when a physician is called in to examine a patient's condition, he finds that the lungs are half gone, or that destructive lesions have occurred, 80 as to render a cure, in many cases, impossible. The patient will find that the little cough, which he thought had merely annoyed him betimes, has laid waste a large portion of an organ, whose functions are necessary to human life: we mean the lungs. If the incipient cough is heeded, and a timely resort is had to medicine, such as Dr. Keyser's Pectoral Syrup, a real scientific com pound, prepared by a careful physician, known to most of.

our readers, the cough will never end in an inflammatory condition of the lungs and bronchia; but obstruction will be removed; free breathing, health, in the place of disease, and consumption, for want of a nidus, will never take hold of the constitution. Sold here by' C. A. Heinitsh and all Druggists. A dreadful case of suicide took place on Thursday in Washington.

A young man named Lewis H. Jones, son of the late George Jones, a clerk in the Land Office, shot himself at the house of his mother, on New York avenue. His course of life was characterized by considerable irregularity, which was a cause of great grief to an excellent mother, who frequently remonstrated with him. On Thursday morning she had again been in conversation with him in relation to his irregularities, and concluded her maternal counsels by embracing and kissing him, when he stepped back a few feet, and drawing out a Derringer pistol from his pocket, and pointing it to his head, exclaimed, I'll kill myself," and discharged the weapon into his forehead, blowing his brains out, and causing instant death. The Delaware Enquirer, at Wilming.

THE PRESIDENCY FOR A PARDON. -The extravagant offer made for a horse at the battle Bosworth, has been more than overdone in effort for the pardon of Brown. The Presidency is the offer now made to the Executive of Virginia for 80 unjustifiable exercise of Executive clemency. The effort is not confined to the Black Republican journals, but, we regret to see, even New York Journal of Commerce joins the mistaken cry for clemency, and its reasons imply that a living martyr, at hard work for is less dangerous than a dead martyrthe penitentiary makes a man more of a felon than the -and that misguided people" sympathize more with the forgotten dead than with the suffering, bard working, confined living.

To us it appears that John Brown, at hard is labor, would be a continual source of supply Abolition fanaticism; that his groans would resound from Richmond to Eastport, and from the James river to the St. Lawrence; that every meeting of the Black Republican and Abolition parties would herald forth resolutions for his liberation; that the stump, every election, from a Constable to the Presidency, would be redolent with praises of heroism and curses upon his imprisonment. Not 80 with John Brown executed. He has forfeited his life, and though possessed of many traits of character that were worthy of a better fate, pity and commiseration are closed against the murderer of Turner and Beckham. Virginia will execute Brown and his associates, and feels herself able to meet all the consequences that may arise from that act.

Richmond Enquirer. ANOTHER INDIAN MASSACRE. -The latest Salt Lake mail brings the details of another Indian massacre, which occurred 25 miles west of Fort Hill, on Lander's Cut off, on the night of the 2d of September, on a party consisting of six men, three women, and ten children, part from Michigan, and part from Buchanan county, Iowa. The emigrants were surrounded just as they were about camping, and shot down before they had time for defence. Some who escaped fell in 8000 after with a company of dragoons, under command of Lieut.

Livingston, who sent a detachment to the massacre. On their arrival they found the dead bodies of five persons on the ground, out of the eight that were missing. The dead were horribly mangled and scalped. One little girl five years old, had both her legs cut off at the knees her ears were also cut off, and her eyes were dug out from their sockets; and to all appearances the girl, after having her legs cut off, had been compelled to walk on the stumps, for the sole purpose of gratifying the hellish propensities of savage barbarity. The names of the murdered are: Edward Miltimore, James Miltimore, Wm.

Miltimore, Mary Ellen Miltimore, and Myron Cline. BRUTAL MURDER IN CHESTER COUNTY young man, sixteen years of age, was brought to the prison of Chester County, on Thursday last, charged with the murder of a young girl aged nine years, named Susan Emma Kimble, daughter of Larew Kimble, of Lower Oxford, Chester county. On Tuesday afternoon, the little girl was sent on an errand across a field, where a boy of sixteen years, named Rey burn, was plowing. She did not return that night. Early next morning diligent search was instituted, and soon her lifeless body was found in a dam of the Octoraro creek, near by, with her head crushed and mutiliated with a stone.

From the dam, tracks were found leading across the plowed field to the place where young Reyburn had been plowing, where marks of a struggle were plain, and where also a stone was picked up having marks of blood upon it. The foot tracks represented those of Reyburn. He was immediately arrested, but denied all knowledge of the deed, and suggested that it might have been done by two negroes who had crossed the field. But an examination of the ground did not tend to confirm his story, as there were no foot marks found except those leading to the dam from the spot where the struggle took place. A track was made from the field to the dam by the dragging of the body.

Considerable excitement prevailed in the neighborhood, but no violence was attempted. It is supposed that he first ravished his victim and then murdered her to conceal his guilt. THREATENING AND APPEALING LETTERS TO GOVERNOR WISE. -The Governor of Virginia, whose energetic, patriotic and prudent conduct in regard to the Harper's Ferry outrage commands universal approval, is in daily receipt of a large number of letters from Abolitionists in various States, threatening his life, threatening an attempt to rescue Old Brown, and threatening the renewal of like attempts to those of Brown if Gov. Wise does not pardon the miscreant who has just been convicted of his crimes, and who will be put to the death he deserves, as surely as to morrow's sun rises in heaven.

These letters speak of the increasing number of the Abolitionists, of their ability to perform what they threaten, and of the 6 6 mur derous eye" to use the language of one of them, with which they watch the progress of Brown's trial. They wind up generally with holding out to the Governor great popularity at the North if he will deal leniently with the criminals. From all quarters in the Northern and Western States these letters come, written in every style and penmanship; but all breathing threats of rescue or of vengeance. Brown in case and his followers are executed. PROCEEDINGS AT CHARLESTOWN.

CHARLESTOWN, Nov. 4. There has been a marked abatement in the excitement here to day. The town is, however, as full of people as when the excitement was at its height, and strangers are continually coming and going. Judge Russell and lady, and Mr.

Hoyt who first took up Brown's defence, left here this morning for Boston. Coppee, who was found guilty yesterday, has not yet received his sentence. Shields Green one of the negro prisoners, was put on trial to day. He is defended by Mr. Sennell.

The evidence is closed, and the case will be submitted to- morrow to the jury. Copeland is next for trial, and on Monday it is expected that the wounded man Stevens will be brought up. It almost certain that Cook will plead guilty, first submitting a written confession or statement of his connection with Brown. His brother-in-law, Gov. Willard, of Indiana, is still here.

Price, $3 per annum. J. M. Westhaeffer, Agent, 44 North Queen st. It would not be an easy matter to put one's finger on a dull number of this famous periodical, and when we announce, as we do now, the publication of a new number, the reader may look for at least one paper the perusal of which will be well worth his while.

We have no intention to canvass the different articles in the present issue, which offer the usual variety; but we cannot refrain from calling attention to, and soliciting a careful perusal of, the abstract from Capt. Speke's Journal in this and the number for September, giving the details of a journey in Central Africa, made by him in conjunction with Lieut. Burton.Traversing districts before untrodden by the white man, that officer, having entered Africa on the east coast, worked up to the northward and westward, to the Mountains of the Moon, and in their vicinity has discovered a vast lake or inland sea, to which he has given the name of Victoria Nyanza, and which there is every reason to believe is the long-sought FOUNTAIN OF THE NILE. This lake is situated exactly on the Equator; and its position and the formation of the country lend much probability to the suggestion. We cannot reproduce in this brief notice Capt.

Speke's argument on the subject, but we must refer for the details to the number itself. Price of the four Reviews, $8 a year; "Blackwood" and the four Reviews, $10. DE BOW'S REVIEW, for November, is on our table. Its contents are as follows, viz: American Agriculture. Life and Liberty in America.

Department of Commerce. Education, NATURALIZED CITIZENS. The Black Republicans, truly remarks the Boston Post, continually misrepresent the Democratic sentiment toward naturalized citizens, in order to hide their own intolerant conduct. To show the doctrine upon this point maintained by Mr. Buchanan's administration, we quote again from the official letter of Mr.

Case, our Secretary of State, to minister at Berlin, Prussia. It reads thus The moment a foreigner becomes naturalized, his allegiance to his native country is severed forever. He experiences a new political birth. A broad and impassible line separates him from his native country. He no more responsible for any thing he may or do, or omit to say or do, after assuming new character, than if he had been born the United States.

Should he return to native country, he returns as an American citizen, and in no other character. In order entitle his original government to punish him for an offence, this must have been committed whilst he was a subject, and owed allegiance to that government. The offence must have been complete before his expatriation. It must have been of such a character that he might have been tried and punished it at the moment of his departure. A future liability to serve in the army will not sufficient; bocause before the time can arrive for such service, he has changed his allegiance, and has become a citizen of the United States.

Democrate-read the above--cut it outpreserve it -and whenever you hear your opponents fibbing about the course of the Government in relation to naturalized citizens, repeat it to them. CRAZY." -The Republican papers continue to excuse Old Brown's Harper's Ferry Kansas work" on the ground that he is crazy." They say that he was made so by the murder of his son by the border ruffians in Kansas. But it is well known that Brown was a thief, a robber and a murderer before his son was killed and that he was supported and aided in his murdering and robbing in Kansas by the Black Republicans of New England. The Providence Post speaks from the record when it describes the old villian: The simple truth is, that Brown commenced his career a8 a villain long before his son was killed, and that most of his villainous exploits preceded this event. No man in Kansas doubts or has ever doubted that he is murderer; and that he is a horse thief might be proved, we think, without seeking for witnesses now outside the city of Providence.

He was a notorious highway robber in almost the very beginning of the Kansas difficulties, and never felt under any obligation to confine his rascalities to that ry. He made frequent incursions into Missouri: and before the Missourians had done any thing more than interfere with the Kansas elections, was known throughout his neighborhood as a robber and cut throat. It was in May, 1855, if we mistake not, that he dragged Allen Wilkinson, a very peacable pro slavery man, from the sick bed of his wife, and murdered him and on the same night, we think, he murdered William Sherman, James P. Doyle, and a son of the latter, who was a mere boy. It was long after this that he made his electioneering speeches for the Republican party in the States.

Did the Republicans get an insane man to electioneer for them But, more than this. The murders charged against old Brown and his son were committed seven months before R. P. Brown was murdered But we are not disappointed. The same organs which applauded and honored this old villian, after he had stained his hands with the blood of Wilkinson, Sherman and the Doyles, will of course find some excuse for his conduct at Harper's Ferry.

We are thankful that we do not belong to 8 party which demands so much of its supporters." A FEMALE HORSE Conneautville Courier states that two men were in that village a short time since in pursuit of an Irish woman who had stolen a horse and bug gy from the vicinity of Rochester, N. a week previous. Once they overtook and arrested her, but the same night she escaped thr agh her chamber window, by means of the bed cord, obtained the same horse and buggy from the stable, and continued her flight without bonnet, shawl or dress, they having been taken from her room by direction of her captors. She, however, supplied herself with these articles by borrowing them from a house on her way, while the family were absent.On Tuesday she lodged near Seagertown, but on Friday no further trace of her had been discovered. The Pittsburg papers state that eluding all pursuit, this female Jack Sheppard made her way to Mercer county, where she traded the stolen nag for another, and then continued her journey, arriving in Alleghany city in the early part of last week, and put up at Neely's tavern on Federal street, just as any other traveler.

She stopped there for some time, representing herself as a resident of Oneida county, N. whose husband had recently died, and that the purport of her visit there was to discover the whereabouts of some relatives, whose acquaintance she desired making. After some few days had passed, she consented, at the suggestion of a friend, to sell the horse and buggy, and both were disposed of to Mr. Gerber, a tavern keeper on Ohio street, for one hundred dollars, which, of course, was handed over to Mrs. Killen," the name under which our heroine passed.Shortly after parting with the horse she disappeared, and while speculation was rife as to what had become of her, the Rochester gentleman reacbed the city in pursuit of the fair widow, accompanied by the party from Mercer county, with whom she had traded his nag.

The latter's horse was hunted up and found in the possession of Mr. Faas, to whom Gerber had sold him, but no traces whatever of the thief could be discovered, and thus far all efforts to ascertain either her identity or hiding place have proved abortive. This whole adventure is a most singular one, and displays an amount of tact and nerve rarely exhibited by a woman. MURDER IN MONTGOMERY -The Norristown papers give an account of an atrocious and horrible murder that occurred at Bridgeport, on the 25th ult. A boy named John H.

Famous, only about eight or nine years of age, went to the house of Benjamin Eagens, a near neighbor of his father's, while the older members of the family were absent. He here found a loaded gun in one of the rooms with which he deliberately shot Mr. Eagens' daughter, Mary Elizabeth, aged about eleven years, killing her instantly. The boy upon being questioned, said the gun had fallen accidentally and shot her. He subsequently stated that he was mad at her, and had killed her.

They had attended school together and had quarreled. The boy had threatened to shoot the girl, and took this occasion to carry out his threat. The coroner's jury charge the death of the girl upon the boy. The young offender has been committed to Norristown jail for trial. AMERICAN RIFLED CannoN.

-A trial of a rifled six pounder was made on Monday of last week, at Flushing, L. before several military officers of the Mexican Constitntional Government. The firing was extraordinary, and rivals that of the most complex English and French pieces. The gun is a common bronze cannon, five feet long, weighing 580 pounds, and rifled with eight grooves. The target, five by seven feet, moored at a mile distance, received six out of eight shots fired after the gun was brought to bear upon it, five of which were within twenty inches of the bull's eye.

This success is attributed to a new construction of projectile, invented by Andrew Hotchkiss, of Connecticut, and said to have been recently much improved. After the target practice, the muzzle of the gun was elevated, and several shots thrown to distances variously estimated between three and four miles. The projections are oblong, weighing nine and three quarter pounds each, and were fired on the long range with fourteen ounces of Dupont's powder. -N. Y.
