Washington Correspondence.

New York, Nov. 7. i The Herald's Washington correspondent says: “Though diplomatic rules, and perhaps prudential considerations, prevent the S o tate Department from disclosing the exact state of affairs to the public, yet it is believed that seribas difficulties may, and will, probably, grow but of the dispute between the Unitffd States and England in reference to the Island of San Juan. It is generally conceded that Gen. Harney was entirely fight in taking possession of the Island for the protection of our citizens there, and for the maintenance of the right of this country to the Island under the I’ackenharn treaty of June 5. 1846. The President will spbmit the correspondence to Congress at the coming session, and will ask for means, money and men to enable him to defend the rights of; our country and uphold the honor of its Aag at all hazards and to the last extremity.” • The same correspondent considers the return of Mr. Dallas before the holidays, or ehrly in the session of Congress, as probable.

Dauglas Declines.

•Mr. Douglas declines the invitation to address the Democracy of this State, which was published with such a parade of names nj few weeks since. The cause given is the illness of his wife, and we have no doubt it i$ given in good faith, and not as a “dodge,” for Mrs; Douglas is dangerously ill, and has been for some Weeks. Still if she was well it is a little doubtful if he would profit very largely by his visit and a speech here. The masse* of the Democracy are decidedly disposed to support him, but the leaders, who turn the masses just as they please, are quite as strongly disposed the other way. Mr. Douglas could, therefore, make no acquisition of popular strength, for he has that already, and he might possibly make a move that the leaders could use against him. 1 {g7”We have; not in a long time seen anything so funhy as t ! 'e following from 11. Clay I'ate’s contradiction of the report that Old Brown tooki him prisoner and scared Win half to death during the Kansas war: If what 1 have said is not enough, the pjeople need expect from me nothing more «)jT defense with the pen. Three years ago I one Coward who said I surrendered, and when he was called on for satisfaction, would accept a challenge. I adjust as able to do the same tiling in 1859 us [ was in 1850} and possibly a little abler." “H. Cl, a v Pats..” :‘fThrpis.lied a cou-ard he said, and lie is rrkidy tb do it again. Brave man is I’ute. Like the man who whipped his wile, and went into the stijeet and swore he could just whip any woman alive. Pate is prepared toUwhipl any number of "cowards."

guerilla chief Cortinas, who is ke oping BrownsiviHe, Texas, in a stale ol alarm, has published a proclamation, in wlhich he says that the honest citizens have ; noth'iig t« fear, and that it is his sole object to punish six or (eight citizens of llrouns-. vW.le who by legal and other means are endeavoring to dispossess the old Mexican residents of tiieir I a tills. Cortinas claims to be a Ajmericun citizen, and the gfievaoces ot his party are apparently real. "Daniel S. Dickinson on tiie “Irkepressible Coh'Fi.tcT.”—-In the course of his recent Albany speech, Ifon. D. S. Dickenson said tlpit “ t(ie Slave States are every day growinjg weaker, and the free States stronger.” 'That will do very well fora “Democrat,” but if the same declaration had been made by a Republican it would have been, according to Democratic journals, proof that the j author was directly concerned in the Harper’s Ferry difficulty. ---<>--- A REBELLIOUS AND PROFANE ELDER.— Heber C. Kimball, the Mormon Elder, “preached” in the Tabernacle at Salt Lake City, on the 11th ult. He was particularly severe on the U. S. Government, and said that the Government and hell combined cannot drive them from their mountains; and said that “old Tom Benton is now snuffing sulphur in hell, where he ought to be.” ---<>--- KENTUCKY REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION. — The Republicans of Kentucky will meet in Convention on Wednesday morn- ! irig, Nov. 16, 185®, at Newport, to organize I the party in the State—to form a Presidential electorial ticket, appoint two Senatorial delegates for the State at large, and transact such other business as may come before tlje Convention. t j l Goshen Times boasts with good! reason of a Republican family in that county. It is that of John Weaver, of Benton township, and consists of the father, eight «bns, and four sons-in-law, all residents of the same townshjip, all voters, and all true blue Republicans. Pass the Banner up to Ajlr. We aver! l . London Telegraph gravely states I that in the United States, “among the can- ! didates of the Democratic party for the Presidency, the most prominent is Stephen •Au Douglas, n black man, who for many tyjears has conducted an Abolition ant] emancipation paper with signal success," I Dollie Dutjton of Springfield Mass., a . f r * °L ten y earß i is a prodigy beaidea whom ; °. m Tnumb ceases to be a curiosity.

To be Drawn at Cincinnati, Ohio, ON MONDAY, JANUARY 2 ? 1860. rpHE great favor with which my Grand Annual JL Gift Distribution, (drawn fi'sth December, 1^58,J was received, and the fact that I was unable at that time to supply near all the tickets that were desired, has determined me to prepare a scheme that surpasses in magnificence anything that has heretofore been attempted, and affording better chances to the ticket holders to do well than could possibly be given in a scheme of less dimensions. All money received will be deposited in bank by the projector, until after tlie drawing, and will be returned to the persons sending it, if every thing does not take place as advertised. Persons who desire, can deposit their money in sums of fifty dollars and upwards with H. Hliimk Co., a well-known and responsible jewelry linn in this city, who have consented to retain and take charge of all sums deposited with them until after the drawing. The total value of prizes to be distributed is One Hundred Thousand Hollars, and the number of prizes is Five Thousand, and the whole number of tickets being Twenty Thousand, there is consequently one chance in every four tickets. The drawing, as above stated, will lake place on Monday, the 2d day of January, in a public hall in Cincinnati, and all the tick-et-holders who can possibly be present are earnestly requested to attend. The capital prize is the residence built and occupied by myself in Covington, Ky., opposite Cincinnati, (being the handsomest and best arranged dwelling in the city,) with grounds belonging thereto.

The Carriage is one L bad made expressly for my family use, of the best materials, and with the most substantial workmanship, and cannot be surpassed by any in the Union. It has had about a month’s service—just enough to test its good qualities. The horses are in accordance with the carriage, being matches, spirited and docile, and beautifully made animals, and the harness is a set of the best silvermounted that could be made The price (one thousand dollars) at which this entire turn out is put up, is much iess than it cost to me, and would be a bargain for cash. There arc fifteen hundred prizes of American Gold in the scheme, in sums ranging from five to one thousand dollars each, which .speak for iheinselves. The three Buggies and II oi ses, with silver-mount-ed harness, worth four hundred dollars', are splendid prizes. The horses are good, and the buggies from the establishment of 1 u • Bruce 6c Co., Cincinnati, one of lb* ii,L manufacturers in the city. me four Pianos, worth five hundred and four hun died dollars each, have been selected by a competent judge lrorn the largest stock in the West, and are pro nouncod very*superior.
