A few years havc passed, and this same shadow has waxed into an austensible substance, and to day, Louis Napoleon commands sa greatej iuflucuce on the continent of Europe, than almost all thc rest of the powers combined.

Artful and untiring his policy is becoming the admiration of all, and his diplomacy, while it gives him ascendency, humbles in the same ratio those who havc cast their fortunes in the scale with him, 'J

By the above extract, (whether true or not. wo cirnnot say,) wo find he is already, with the characteristic of his family, disposing of eorne of the European crowns, and placing them upon the heads of his emissaries.

There is something in that Bonapart blood, that gives it a supremacy wherever it drop of it is found. Sprung from the masses, iu half a century, it has controlled the destinies of tho most powerful Kigdoms, it flows from the heart in such a pure genial current, that it forccs itself into the favor, and demands the admiration of all.

matter, and in its wisdom, thought that

born American citizen, will say that the act of Congress is far preferable to the l.ot haste of our Constitution.

In the last election the American party advocated thc necessity of a foreigner complying with the law of Congress—or at least, that ho should take the oath of allegience to this country, before he be permitted the right of the elective franchise. We advocated the propriety, of his not only saying he intended to become a citizen, but of his actually being one so far as a mental abjuration was concerned, before he should have the privilege of th'6 bal-lot-box.

triumph of right over wrong? of correct doctrine over incorrect, of truth over error?— Look at it, think of it and then answer these questions.

Again, tho American party, while it conceeds the right to every man to worship God according to tho dictates of his conscience— while it acknowledges thc innate right of all men, of whatever nation or clime, to assemble, and under their own "vine and fig tree," pour out their devotions in such language, and worship in any form they may, in their judgments, think right still it hylds, that when a Catholic alien, enters our courts, and proposes to take an oath of fidelity to this •ctMimry it miner institutions, thereby abjuring all allegience to any foreign Prince, power and potentate whatever, if he retains a mental reservation of obedience to the commands of the

Pope at Rome, he is not a fit subject to become an American citizen. Thc Old Liners say he is a suitable person tube thus metamorphosed, and upon this, we went into thc campaign—they have triumped. Reader, are they right, or are they wrong Look into this matter, think of it, and then auswer this question, xlt /.' -•*'{?'.

Again, the American party,looHngover*tlic broad extent of our State, and seeing the withering, blasting and soul destroying effects, produced from ihecxccssirc use, and the sale of spirituous liquors, determined to exert their entire iufluence against it—the moan of the widow and the cry of the orphan came up from teu thousand hovels to their ears—they saw our cities filled with th^se house of intemperance, of infamy and of crime, where the unsuspecting youth of the country were decoyed and ruined—they beheld the bloodshot eves—the trembling nerves—the decayed muscle—the erased brain—the numerous wrecks of manhood, and the moving masses of corruption that daily stalked around our streets, and they 6aid one tn another, this is wrong—humanity, our couutry, and our religion, our duty to our God demand a reform in this.

Tho vtnivertol topic, of eonrse, i^, "Sevastopol is taken f' Politic? grew rabmeBtarily calm. When the America arrired, stagnant business hutfg its drooping head, even trifle lower—people didn't ftuzza—nooocTy but the editor of the "Albion" tossed up $ hat—every, one seemed struck but not with joy, nor would I like tJ say—sorrow. 11 was.rather a universal surprise, Sevastopol had growbinto the grand impossibility of the age, and to find it suddenly taken—gone—seemed something beyoud what thc appreciative Americans could "comprehend.

The preslftfyehr will long^be'c8nppictfofts by the brilliancy of one event, at least, among the New York literati. I speak of the '•Publisher's Festival," to the Author's and Litcrlity men of America! ^It came •flf at the Crystal Palace, Sept. 29th. Think "of seven hundred authors—all together! The most opposite, faction, snarling people in tho world, seated around one table, smiling amoug flowers and fruits, just as though each individual's good genius had promised him all the cnor inous sum he had set upon each prospective book, and conjured this fairy banquet with its affable presiding publishers, as an assurance thereof!

RACHEL'S

entree, created quite a tremor

among the fashionables, but at this date, she is in a decliue—that is, her popularity. Thc masses wero virtually excluded from her performances, owing to the judicious price Mons. FELIX fixed upon. The consequence is, that the furor has died ouE. Thc transient patrons have dropped ofT, and though RACIIEL has undertaken readings at the Broadway Tabernacle, the probability is that uo suck compromise will turn thc ebbing tide. RACHEL'S appearance,. on the stage, is certainly astonishingly beautiful, and of that queenly, commanding kind, that taks your admiration by storm, if I may use such a phrase. Her actions have all the cam dignity of one conscious of her power—there is no nerve overstrained—even when drawn to the tension of passion—nothing overdone. You gnze,entranced and lose all knowledge of the woman's beauty in the perfection tion of the article Her readings evinced in a less degree, the same wonderful talent. Altogether, her appearance here will form a notable epoch in dramatic affairs.

Apropos of reading, I heard a rumor, recently, that an eminent divine io the upper part of the city, had announced his intention of giving, early this winter, public readings of the dramatical portions of the Bible—this will be a novelty, certainly, and please the "Moral Drama" folk, who patronise the lec-tur-room of the museum

Iam sorry to say that crime has, in nowise, abated sii-co the reign of Mayor WOOD—the

scure gambling houses, and out-of-the-way proggeries, were gladly*taken by a hopeful community, as the premonitory symptoms of a sweeping reform. The establishment of a complaint book at his office, available to the most humble citizcn that had been wronged, was greeted as an evidence of fatherly considderation, that argued well for peace and quietude. Alas! for the hopes of innocent voters, crime pokes its ugly fingers even in the-May-or's sanctum. A gentleman, the other evening, while.crossing the Park, received a backhanded blow, and on recovering from its ef fects, had to look up to the great lighted face of the Hall clock, to discover how louir lie bad lain on the gravel—for his gold watch and wallet had disappeared Mr. Boyle, of No. 40, Division street, while industriously measuring calico behind his counter last week, was politely addressed by a woll-appareled gentlemau, who informed him, that while passing, his canehaj accidentally caught in the vaultgrating and slipped through. Of course, Mr. Boyle could not refuse the gentleman permission to descend into tho vault and get it. But that night, the worthy, but unsuspecting shopkeeper was robbed of some two hundred dob lars worth of goods and valuables, by thieves, who entered by means of the vault-grating, which the polite stranger had unfastened, while looking for his cane! But such trifling occurrences ore common, perhaps unworthy from their frequency, of so much mention here. It is a disagreeable sight to a NewYork man but uufortunatcly, there is no other pictuie to gaze upon. The city is as corrupt in her government as in the dark bye-cor-ners of her filthy streets—as fated to vice as Babylon was to destruction. Ah, the Police!

What discoveries would have been made, had the indomitable navigator been permitted to moor his ice bound ship in that sea, is left for the future geographer to note.

This discovery but confirms the dreams of philosophers in relation to this northern ocean, and we have often thought, that there was more sound resotiiug, than speculation in Simm's theory of the world.

The cold was intense, while Dr. Ivane and

his party were crossing this field of ice—the $2,00.

temperature was 57 degs. below zero, and as early as November, the whisky and mercury was solid, daily.

The entire crew who went out with the expedition returned, except three men, who perished from exposure. Nothing was seen or heard of Sir John Franklin. This, we have no doubt, will end thc search as to that bold explorer—the world will soon forget him—nil will forget him, all cease to pronounce his name. But time, nor distance, nor uncontroling circumstances, can, for one moment lessen the ardor—weaken the zeal of Lady Franklin.

ITEMS'FOIT TIIE LADIES.—-Lady readers, will the following hint- be useful? Britannia should bo tirvl rubbed gently with a woolen cloth and sweet oil, then washed in warm suds, and rubbed with soft leather and whiting. Thus lr n'.ed. it will rt tain its beauty lo the last. New iron should be gradually heated at first after it has become inured with the heat it is not likely to crack. It is a good plan put new earthenware into water, and 1 it heat gradually until it boils —then coo! arrain. Brown earthenware, particularly may be lotf^ncned ftr ilii* woy. A Jmnil ful of wheat or rye bran thrown in wliik boiling, will preserve the glazing, so tin.: it will not bo destroyed by aci I or salt. Clean a brass kettle, before using it for cooking, with salt and vinegar. The oftener carpets arc shaken thc longer tlicy will wear. The dirt that collects under ihem grinds out the threads. If you wish to preserve line teeth, always clean them thoroughly after you have eaten your last meal at night. Woolen should be washed in very hot suds, and not rinsed. Luke-

warm water shrinks woolen ^oods allow ashes to be taken up in wco I.

Never Al

ways have your matches and lamp ready for use in case of sudden alarm. Have important papers altogether, where you can lay your hands on them at once in case of fire. Do not wrap knivos and forks in woolens. Wrap them in good strong paper. Steel is injured by laying in woolens. Old bread may be made al most as good as new by dipping the loaf io cold water, then patting it in the oven after the bread is drawn, or in a stove, and let it beat through. Isinglass is a most delicate stareh ferr fine masHns. When boiling common starch, sprinkle in a little salt it will prevent it» sticking. Sonic use su rar. -.

AW EXCITINU IilClflliNTf. The Pittsburg Post relates the following thrilling incident

On Tuesday, after the Blairsfille train on thc Pennsylvania Railroad (on which Loughridge's great American car brake is constructed) had got under full headway beyond East Liberty, the engineer, Mr. William Will, espied something1 on the track which he took to be a package lost When within about one hundred and set-enty-fi ve feet of it he discovered it was a little child, about fourteen months old. sitting between tbe cross-ties'. 'With astonishing rapidity be struck the steam lever and ctrt off tbe steam, drew back the brake lever and applied aU the brakes. Tbe fireman, J. Snyder, got down on the step at the side of the engineer, awaiting the moment that the momentum1 of the train was sufficiently checked to permit him to jump off and run ahead to snatch the child from the track, which soon occurred when by a superhuman effort he gained inch by incb on the engine, and tbe babe was picked up safely and handed over to its father. The engineer performed bis doty so well that the train was brought to a dead stop within fifteen feet of where the child was sitting r-z*if

Tbe sight of the infant, the deliverance to itb parent, the running of the men, the qaick movements of tne engineer, the sereecbiBg of the brakes, and sparks of fife that flew from tbe track, rendered it moment of the most intense excitement, —one that will be heldin,piea*apt remembrancebf those wko. by their extraordinary presence©{infO£U»vedlire child iroJd an awful death.

Kansas. He answered all the requirements of the law and received the oath so far as swearing to support the Constitution and lajvs of the United States were concerned, as well as'the Organic Act of the Territory, but when the additional part, was added the Colonol dropped his hand, feeling that he could not "take sb big a swear."

J.S.

Emory* Esq., from

his place, found himself in a similar condition and also refused the oath. Col. L. then asked the favor ofappearing in behalf Of McCren, who was to be Ipaced on trial for the murder of Clark, to a regular parcticing attorney in the Supreme Coitft of Indiana, as also in the Supreme Court of the United States, 'f his cause of comity was disregarded, alid the Colonel was excluded from the Courts of Kansas, in violation of al! precedent, and in a manner unheard of by the legal profession.

Opinion of tlio Attorney General. Attorney General Cushing has given an opinion in regard to the reclamation of "fugitives from service" in organized Territories, of which the following are tho main and most interesting points

I. The constitutional right of a c-itisten of the United States to reclaim a fugitive from his lawful service extends not only to the Slates and to the organized Territories, but also to all the unorganized Territorial possessions of the United States. '•2. If in such Territory there be no commissioni rs of thc United States to act, thc claimant may procccd by rocapturo without judicial process. '•3. Any such fugitive from service tn tho Indian country is there unlawfully, and, as nn intruder, is subject to arrest by the Exocutivc authority of tle United Slates. "4. Such fugitive canmM. 6e protected from extradition by any Indian tribe or nation for the Indians are themselves tlvo meie subjects of thc United States, ffWd have no power in conflict with tfie Constitution of the United States. ^'5. By the local law of the ofgfani^ed political communities of the Chefoftees,

Choctaws, and Chickasaws there is ample provision for the delivery up of fugitives from service in any of the States."

Much indignation is cxprosKcd by a portion of tl»e Protectant German* in.tliU eifyViW tho conduct of the two Gorman Ministers wko openly electioneered on Tuesday for the oid line ticket.

A Ports NAI*I —-jAmong the rumors vf the day is one to the effect that Lucieu HofiWpnrte, son of Charles Lucien Bonaparte, l'rince of Canino nnd Muair^uatio, is soon lo be made' a Cardinal, with a view to his elevation to the Papal chair, on the der.th of Pius Ninth—an event not considered very remote, as his Holiness i» snid to bo MilFerimr from an Incurable internal disease. Willi his courin aw Pono, and with the present English nllianco still further strengthened as it may bo Loui* Nspoleoti may occupy a much stronger and prouder position than he does now. All difficulties, too, in the way of curing the Pope's services nt his coronation may thus be removed. The expected Cardinal atnl Pope is tho Emperor's cousin by a double tie, his father having married Joseph Bonaparte's daughter/ Ze naide.—Phil. Bulletin.
