II haa Wtofor. und i, now. firm friend of Senator Douglas, and hesrtilj sad c WuIIt .pplauds his courae htb ...!.! 5TThe Republican papers, in all patts of the State, are endeavoring to create discord in the Democratic ranks, by their senseless twaddle about th English bill, The Democrats in this part of the State are satisfied, as far as we have heard an expression from them, that the English bill is a settlement of the Lecompton question,

returning it t-j the people of Kansas to The 'Golden Era says it is a fixed fact reject or confirm it, as they may see prop- that our British rivals have already enterer. If a majority of the inhabitants of ed upon the construction of a railroad from Kansas are in favor of it, Kansas is imme- Canada to the Pacific. That is, they have diately to come into the Union as a State, now on the ground a various points a large

with that constitution; but if, on the other hand, a majority are in (aver of rejecting it, it is to bo considered as dead null and mm told. I Senator Douglas, (a man who stands foremost ?.n the rank of statesmen of today who opposed the Lecompton consti-1 tution to the last,) regards the English bill as a settlement of the question, and the only way in which it could be settled at the time the bill was passed. Tbe English bill gives to the citizens of Kansas just what the Republicans asked before it passed to-wit: an opportunity to reject it. But no sooner was the privilege given them, than the Republicans set up a pitiful whine because the people of Kansas were allowed the privilege of rejecting Lecompton if r,-w sistency! thou art not Republicanism. . . What changes Lava taken place in the mind 3 of the Republicans since the Presi deutial canvass of 1856! Then, they ad Tocated the droctrine that Congress had the exclusive right to make laws for the gov ernment of the Territories; a short time since, another changs came over the spirit of their dreams, and we find them trying to make people believe that they were they who advocated, from the first dawn of the Kansas question, that the Umafide citizens of the Territory should have the power to make laws for their government, as best suited them, subject only to the constitu tion of the United fatales. Hut as soon as the English bill passed, which gave to the inhabitant 01 mataiusea lerntory what they contended they should have, we see mem tacamg on in anomer airecuon. ana abusing English more than they ever aia Douglas. What a beautiful thing is Re publicanism! Kow we Una them aavocating no principle, they are tattered and torn, a dissolution is to take place. a new party is to be organized, to be called the "Peopled Party," composed of the remains ox me deceased nepuoucan party. km . m How many times they will change before the campaign of 1860, somebody that Knows win cave to itiu C!1 John CJ 'TVallrM ri e .1-- t rv. lr. aiior 01 mo .uaporie tntcs. not ait.

The Congressional Canvass. , Last "week we published the proceedings of the meeting between Col. Walker and Mr. Colfax, for tho purpose of making ar rangements for a joint canvass of this dis tnct. From that report it mil be seen that there was no arrangement agreed upon, and aa the action of that meeting is prob ably nfinale, we suppose that they will canvass the district separately, or not at all. We are unable to detect anything unfair or illiberal in the propositions of Col. Walker; if there was any advantage in either of them it would accrue to Mr. Colffvx, from the fact that he has three times canvassed tha entire district, and flooded it with his speeches, "while there are many isolated portions of the district that Col. Walker has neier risited. Col. Walker's health is in a state that would forbid a canvass embracing every township in the thirteen large counties composing the district; as Mr. Colfax would accept of no other arrangement, we think it evinces either a want of pluck, or a disposition to lake ad vantage of Col. Walker's ill health. Let the case be viewed either way, it will not redound much to the glory of Mr. Colfax. ---<>--- From California. We are under many obligations to W. F. Sherwood, Esq., of Bourbon, for files of late California papers. He has also favored us with a letter from T. DAME, Esq., of Lafayette, Ind., now in California, from which we make an extract relative to the "Frazier River Gold Mines," which are at this time creating such an excitement in all parts of the country. Mr. Dame haslong been a resident of Lafayette, and is well known as a gentleman of truth and veracity. His statements are reliable. 0f the Fratier River mines, he savs: This is tbe grande8t numbug of the age.

There can ba no doubt of England's desire to afford us every facility in the way of trading with her ports, and the two anlions togeth er will reap the benefits of the impetus thus to be given to commerce. We may yet live to see the day when, owing to the I illiberality of our government, a separate Republic will be flourishing like a green bay tree upon the shores of the Pacific.' ---<>--- Utah. Late advices from Utah state, that Gen. Johnson's command had entered Salt Lake city without encountering the least opposition, on the 25th of June. Barracks are to be erected at Cedar Val ley, and a permanent military post established. The Mormons were rapidly returning to their homes at Salt Lake City. Brigham Young continues his fulminations against the Federal Government. ---<>--- Arrival of the Persia. NEW YORK, Aug. 3. The Persia which sailed from Liverpool at 9 o'clock a. m., of Saturday, July 24th, arrived here at 11 o'clock this morning. European politics quiet.

Hö thought it would be undesirable to attempt to remove the distinction of caste. In the Commons, Lord Stanley stated that between January and July 29th, 17,000 troops had been sent to India. He added that the governmest was aware of the great importance of striking an effective blow at the insurgents. Mr. D'lfiraeli stated that there had been no, communication between tho English and American governments respecting the recent acts of British cruisers, and these communications were now held in abeyance. Dunncr the abevance. the United States government had made a friendly overture that her Majesty's gov ernment should offer to the United States a plan for their consideration which should accomplish the putting down of the slave trade without misunderstanding. Her majesty's government had accepted that offer, and were now eDgaged in the con sideration of a plan which they believed would satisfactorily accomplish all the ob jects both parties desired. Cheers. Thenew silk crop was favorably reported. FRANCE. The statement that the French troops are to be withdrawn from Rome, is positirely contradicted. It was thought that Prince Napoleon vould be named minister of war sooner or later. A Marseilles telegraph says: A serious revolutionary movement has broken out amongst the Christian population of Syria. It is said that Tripoli and Latakai are in a state of insurrection. Jn Candia the Chris tians have eiiher barricaded themselves or taken flight. The Times correspondent, on board tho Agamemnon, pronounces a wire covered cable totally unfit for a Submarine Tele graph across the Atlantic, and suggests a thin copper wire covered with gutta percha and greased yarn. There has been rather more business in American State securities at improved prices. A meeting of tho share holders of the I. C. R. R. was held in London on the 22J inst. It was resolved to appoint a permanent London board, and endeavor to make provisions for a regular credit at N. Y. on behalf of Luropean stockholders. A deputation is to proceed to N. Y. to prevent the company beintj pledged with out the concurrence of tho London com mittee. From Huropc. St. John N. F., August 1. A steamer from Cape Race about noon yesterday, and handed to a fisherman four copies of the Liverpool Northern Time sof the 26th to the 23J of July, inclusive. Her name was not ascertained, and the customary dispatch from our agent at Liverpool, having failed to come to hand, we are unable to say what vessel it was. The probability, however, is, that it was the Persia from Liveipool on the 24th. From the paper received the following summary has been made up: The commercial advices aro necssarily very imperfect, but the political news will be found'of the highest interest, embracing as it doss, news of the recapture of Gwa lior by the English, and the taking of a Chinese fort mounting 238 at the mouth Peiho river. IXDIA AND CHINA. An official telegram to tbe foreign office. on the 22d of July, states that the Canadi an arrived at Suez on the 16th, with dates from Calcutta to the 19th, Madras to the 24th, and Gallee to the S9th June, Hong Kong to the 7th of J une, and Aden to the to the 11th of July.

There is nothing later from the Atlantic Telegraph fleet than i3 reported by the anueruui. St. John, N. F., Aug. 2. We find in a Liverpool paper of the 24th the following account of the London marke of the previous day: Sugar was in goodjde maud at an advance of 6d., and buyers acted with confidence, several cargoes having been sold; we find lump quoted a 52s.55s. Coffee is fully supported, and an average business was done. Teas dull, common Congou was quoted at 6d. Queer. Prohibition. It is a singular fact that the recent legislation, ostensibly made to annihilate the liquor traffic, actual ly compels the purchase and sale cf intox icating liquon in every town in the State Section five provides that immediately af ter the 15th of July the selectmen of towns, and the mavorandeldermen of cities, shall m purchase intoxicating liquors,' and shal appoint an agent in the town or city to sei the same. This proceeding is not optional with the towns or cities, but compulsory upon them. Thus, ia many town's where they have had no place for intoxicating liquors for years, a Maine Law rum shop is to be established and put in operation. In fact of prohibition by compelling the establishment of rum shops in every town

A clergyman in Connecticut was reading to his congregation the beautiful and poetic Psalm of David where he says: 'Mercy and truth are met together; Righteousness and Peace have kissed each other.' At this point a little girl in the assembly manifested a great interest and whispered to her mother: 'That's true as you live. I saw Righteous Hill kiss Peace Peabody behind the smoke house, but how did the minister know it.' A beautiful girl with a pair of pouting lips, stepped into the store to buy a pair of mits. 'How much are they?' Why, said the gallant but impudent clerk, lost in gazing upon her sparkling eyes and ruby lips, you shall have them for a kiss. 'Agreed' said the young lady, pocketing the mits, and her eyes speaking daggers. 'And as I see you give credit here, charge it on your books, and collect it the best way you can.' So saying she hastily slipped out of the door. Written for the Marshall County Democrat TOS O, come with me Through starry light; Our footsteps far Shall stray to-night.

Iriival of the Steamship anticroiit. New York, August 2. The Steamship Vanderbilt arrived this a. 111. at 6 o'clock, bringing Liverpool dates to the 2 1 st and London cf the eve of the 6ame day. She brings nearly three hundred passengers; reports very favorable weather for lajmg the cable. She passed the Anal off the Stanton the morninsr of sailing. The Niagara passed Cape Clear on tne morning 01 the öth, ana tue AcraI memcon was off Kingsdale the same p. m. I rrt ii a; ti . uer was an interesting ueoate in too House of Lords on tho Jeddah massacre, in which Malmcsbury said all necessary steps baa been taken to demand immediate re dress from Turkey. There was no inten tion of occupying Mecca. The House of Commons discussed at length a motion by Roebuck, that the privileges of the Hudson Bay Co., about to ex pire, ought not to be renewed, and that such territory held by them was needed for purpose of colonization, and ought to be assumed by government. This motion was finally withdrawn. The attempt to raise funds for the com pletion of the steamship Great Eastern, has failed.fand it is now proposed to raise a new company for purchasing her. The challenge of the Americans backing Paul Morphy against Staunton, the English Champion Chess Player, for 1,000 guineas, had been.accepted by the latter. The cantest will commence in Sept. The cotton supply of England was very actively engaged in collecting subscription. They are about to open an exhibition of an extensive collection of cotton sample from various countries. There has been a sudden change in the programme of Queen victorias visit to Berlin. There h to be no salute, no dem onstration as usual on such occasions. The cause of this change is not known, but there are rumors of ill health of Princess Frederick William. The Paris Moniteur says the French Government will join Englaui in demand ing reparation for the Jeddah massacre. The Atlantic Telcgräpli. Captain E. E. Morgan, who has crossed the Atlatic one hundred and fifty-six times, writes to the N. Y. Jonrnal of" Com. on the practicability of laying a submarine tele graph cable between Europe and America. He says: "There' has never been any difficulty in laying telegraph wires in shoal water, and and the sole cause of the failure in this'case is owin to the depth of the water; by rea son which the great length of the wire held in suspension causes so heavy a strain upon it, that if not parted altogether, the inside wire is broken, or .the gutta percha coating so strained that the water reaches the electric wire, and of course instantly stops ine communication. The plan I would adopt is this: When stowing the wire away in the ship's hold attach it to a three inch Manilla rope stop ping the wire and rope together, which might be done by four or five men as fast a3 it could be coiled away. There . is no objection to the additional number of ships needed to carry the quantity of rope that would be required by pu'.-suint this method Next dispense with the macbin ery of every kind hitherto used to check the cable, and, instead thereof, provide every convenience for getting it out. No stop or cbeck of any sort woulabe required: the buoyancy of the rcpe would let it sink gentley dowri, and would prevent it fron, running out too fast. There is no difficulty ia coiling the wiro away so that it will

not shift or foul, and as to the sinking, so long as a square inch of the material to be sunk is heavier than a square inch of water, it will go down. The wire should previously be passed through a hydraulic cylinder, under pressure equal to three miles depth of water, to ascertain if. in all this length of cable.

a 7 there is no place where the water can get tnrougn tne out side coating to the electric wire. "The bottom of the ocean is. without doubt, quite level enough for laying wire; it is probable more so thanlthe land.and all the currents met within its descent would be of no consequence. It would, in three hours, be auietlv on the bottom, two miles below the surface, and where nothing can ever disturb it. No living thine ever coes down lower than about one hundred fath oms, except occasionally a wounded whale mignt exceed, that depth. There is no place so quiet a3 the bottom of the ocean. where the water is over two hundred fathoms deep; and that the great telegraphic cable can be safelr ßlaceö! there. I look unon as a matter beyond all doubt." Plymouth. It is four years since we were at Plymouth, and on our recent visit there we found that it had kept pace, in the way of improvement, with the general progress of the day, and especially with its advantages in the way of rail roads. The soil of Marshall, at least a large portion of it, is unsurpassed by any in the State, and the thrift, enterprise, and taste of the people of Plymouth, have long ago marked it as on of the most flourishing towns in Northern Indiana. Twioo within a few years, it has been visited with fires which have laid the larsrer portion of the business street in ashes, but the energy of the people has only been stimulated to redoubled activity bv the visitation. and new business houses take the places of tnose destroyed. The town, 6ince the completion of the two railroads to that point, has had many new buildingj added to it, and all appearances indicate that it is but now in the vigor of its growth. In the evening after the convention, there was a littlo impromptu party at the Edwards House a large, well kept hotel which we had the pleasure of attending. and which gave us the opportunity of seeing a number of handsome, well dressed, and highly accomplished ladies, as could be found in a similar social gathering any where. To C. II. Reeve Esa.. of Plvmouth. Mr. Holcomb. and other gentleman, who showed the Peruvians so many polite attentions on that occasion, we return our thanks. and give the assurance of reciprocity whenever opportunity offers. Peru JSentinel. Every one is aware of the indefatigable zeal evinced by the Republican nominee for Congress, in making acquaintances and securing votes and "thereby hangs a tale." While in his peregrinations a few days since, ho was made the principal in a little scene that proved most galling, and a few repetitions of which must necessarily cure him of his present undignified method of securing the public favor. In the course of his "rounds, Mr. C. visited the railroad shops, and, among others, was presented to a worthy German, whoso organs of hearing are somewhat defective. Upon ap proaching the German, Mr. C.'s escort said: "Sir, I will introduce you to Mr. Colfax. Now it appears that he has for sometime past been annoyed in some way about his "poll tax," and having caught the sound of the last word only, the German exclaimed, in a tone plainly indicating that all the blood in his Teatonic veins was fully aroused: "To the Dy vil mit um boll dax I pay him already du dimes." it is not necessary to record the fact that the bystanders, who were numerous, raised a prodigious shout, and that Mr. Colfax and his friend speedily decamped; the former well convinced of the truth of what somebody said that "The best intention is too often sullied by the event. Laporte limes. Gfix. Cass ahd thk Right of Search. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia North American, an op position paper, pays a well deserved com pilment to Gen. Cass for his important agency in settling the question of right of search with Great Biitain. Speaking of the satisfactory solution of the question, the writer says: "Nor should the occasion be allowed to pass whatever differences of political opin len may exist, without a just and becoming tribute to the able, lesolute and' patriotic course of General Cass. If there be ons question more than another to which he has especially contributed the eüorts, the zeal, the investigation, and the un swerving purpose of the last 25 years of his public career, seconded by all the influence of his commanding character at home and abroad, it has been this right of search. Indeed, it had come to be con sidered, in some degree, as his peculiar province of specialty. And when his in structions to Mr. Dahas comes to be scan ned by the impartial judgment of men disembarrassed of all partygties, it will be seen how much the country is indebted to him for the settlement which at once re lieve our diplomatic relations of their most I At t ' T. vexatious ana mreaiening aspect, xt 15 greatifying to me, as a political opponent, to have the opportunity of expressing these sentiments. This is a great triumph in every sense, and nothing but the most narrow and bigoted partizanship can deny to those who have achieved it the nign creaitwnicn iney areenuueu uci.i:m from a generous public."

Suppose a man dip from one vessel to another ono gallon at a time he could not under the most favorable circumstances average more than a gallon in two seconds or thirty gallons per minute: now if he should work at this rate night and day without the slightes intermission' it would require more than seventy thousand years to dip out the numbar of gallons contained in a cubio mile.

IN THREE VOLUMES, OCTAVO, o THIS work contains upwards of 2,000 pages, ia printed on fine paper, and handsomely bound in various styles. It is illustrated by several engravings on steel, and numerous fac wmiles; among the former are two fine portraits of Jefferson. Tbe fac similes embrace, among others, the original draft of the Declaration of Independence, in Jefferson's own hand-writing. This is, in every sense, an authorized work: it was undertaken under the approbation of his family, and with an unreserved access to all the private papers of Jefferson in their possession; and has received the benefit of their recollections and opinions at every step. The work contains the expression of Jefferson on every great public question which arose, from his advent to public life to his death a period of about sixty years, and embracing the whole forming period of the Republic. It contains Jefferson' heretofore unpublished family correspondence; selections from his finest published letters, state papers, etc etc OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. "No other Life of Jefferson ever published probably none that ever will be published can bear any comparison to this in thoroughness, fulness of incident and conscientious fidelity. This biography has evidently been a labor of love, and the years of patient, assidious toil it has cost, have been given with ungrudging, untiring enthusiasm. N. Y. Tribune. "At length the public have a life of Thomas Jefferson that is not only fascinating, and therefore sure to be popular, but one that will stand the essential historic test that of accuracy and truthfulness. It is seen that the greund-work of the whole ia authentic cotemporary material, and of the highest order. To gather it, has been the work of years. We would not compare this volume with that inimitable and incomparable biography of Boswell, and yet so faithful is the portraiture that Jefferson is made to draw of himself, that his nature, his very soul, is delineated with a distinctness not unlike that in which Johnson stands out in the pages of Doswell." Boston Post. "Imbued with that enthusiastic admiration of his subject, without which a biographer is rarely successful, Mr. Randall nevertheless does not seek to hide whatever faults he may find, either from himself or from the reader. He paints the picture as Cromwell insisted that his should be painted, "warts and all." The picture gains by this in life-like coloring, without losing any of its majestic proportions." Albany Eve. Journal. "No one who runs his eye, however casually, over this work, will fail te be satisfied that Mr. Randall has added very lately to the stock of the world's information about Jefferson, that he has had access to sources hitherto unexplored, and that he has done more than was ever done by any one before him to illustrate tha personality ofthat groat statesman." If. Y. Evening Po$t. "We hare read with delight Mr. Randall's captivating details of Mr. Jefferson's personal hiatorv, which he has sedulously gathered, and admirably grouped together, from a great variety of authentic sources, hitherto uaexplorcd. Out ol the tempting richness of his materials, the able and clearsighted autnor has constructed a book, at once most enter taining and instructive one that should be studied by every patriot of the land." Rick. Enquirer. "There can be only one opinion as to the ability, general impartiality and industry which Mr. Randall has brought Into combination in the composition of this biography. He has worthily executed a much wanted book." Philadelphia Press. "It will take a place among tbe choicest classics of American literature, and be consulted by every future historian of this country " Phil Ete. Bulletin.' "We like it because it neither conceals, palliates, exagerates.nor distorts, but approaches, in every instance, and in every particular, the career of the noble character whose opinions have done so much tosnape tne domestic and foreign policy of the nation he contributed so greatly to call into existence.
