WH O VOTE E REPUBLICA N TICKE IN CHICAGO. It has always been a wonder here of late how the Republicans could carry the elec tions in Chicago by such large majorities.— The Chicago Dm-crat, one of the organs of the Republican party of Illinois, has ex-its plained the matter at last. Long John tell.-. why it is that his Republican friends suc ceed. We clip the following from that pa per of Monday last: This year, 1859, it is notorious that the black-legs, the brothel keepers, and the whole class of offenders, who claim the right to violate all our laws with impunity, also ro'e.l tte Repub'icun ticket.

The well known rule, that the traitor, never receives the confidence or respect of those whom his treachery is intended to ben efit—while of course those whose trust he has betrayed, regard him with loathing and not seem to apply to the Republican party. But as this party has an exception to every rule of decency and honor and propriety, which has hereto fore been observed, it will not be wondered at and the fact that it is itself mainly com posed of broken jJMvn hacks and renegades from the other parties—of traitors—gives satisfactory and philosophical explanation of •he reason why Mr. James W. Lynd, late of the Henderson Dimwrat, is received into ranks with such jot and exultation. Every further accession of renegades seems to keep them all in countenance for the disgrace and humiliation consequent upon the treachery they have been guilty of, is as it were divided up, and made more endurable. Therefore one can realize why the char acter and posi ion of Mr. Lynd, is so mag nified and extolled by the Republican press, and the article in which he takes his final leave of the Democratic party, and by which he attempts to justify his treachery, is pro nounced oy mat press, as me ^,t,.0 »TiJ* of disinterested' ess and honor. By taking into consideration the cause of that exception to the old fashioned notions of propriety and decency, presented by the Republican party, iwhich we have above hinted at,) and the circumstances of Mr. Lynds desertion, we see abundant reasons, the jubilant ovation that he is now re ceiving at their hands, and how well, indeed, he is entitled to their very Hiffh-'si ht,o.-K Treachery is an old practice of Mr. Lynd's Only last fall he received the nomination for the Legislature from the Democratic Con- vention of Sibley County. He hoisted the ticket of that convention at the head of his paper, he declared that every man on it, himself included, was ever ready to sup port the priixiples of the Democratic part}'." And yet befoie his words were hardly printed he sought the same nomination from the "People's fji nvention," ran up the tick et of that Convention in place of the Demo cratic nominees, and did all he could to de-trality feat them but after his election, said in speaking of it "That he could wield his pen with renewed vigor, to procure a Demo cratic triumph." What is the 3a.use of this sudden change in his sentiments? It is evidently of a per sonal nature entirely. The gall and bitter ness and venom shown in his valedictory, is evidently not the effect of a serious change of principles. He does not even mention tint Administration, in whose praises he has all along been so fulsome. He does not state what is the panic iar policy or prin ciple of the party that he itt dissatisfied with. General charges of corruption and of fraudulent intentions and plans revealed to him by a State Officer is all the motive he assigns. Who that Officer is,how the fraud is to be carried out, he does not tell. Such a statement is unworthy of notice.' Charges made in a manner so vogue that even tho* false they cannot be denied, specifically, are evidence on their face tha» their author is a cowardly, malicious liar. They need no refutation- Mr. Lynd is simply a dissatisfied dema vogue. 11is cable has run out.

The ex-struck cellent canvass of the State, that he made in the fall of 1857, in which by li eloquence and candor he won all hearts, and his man ly and consistent position in Washington as the sincere and unflinching supporter of Stephen A. Douglas, in spite of the most overwhelwing influences brought to bear by the Administaation, has gained him the sympathy and respect of even his polit ical enemies. W know he is reliable and consistent on all occasions. We know that if nominated on a Douglas platform, he will be its most able and eloquent defender. We hope he will accept the nomination, if for no other reason than because he could not be defeated. Mr. Graham's name, strikes us, as being the best yet presented for Congress, from the west side of the river. He will be the choice of the Minnesota valley, and of that portion of the State, not fairly embraced either in the valley, or in Southern Min nesota, to wit the count'es of Dakota, Goodhue and Wabashaw, an important sec tion of the State, which has yet had no rep resentative on the State ticket, and should wield a strong influence in the Convention. We have not space to enlarge upon the names presented for the minor offices, it is enough to say that it is evident that it will not be for want of good Democratic timber that a strong ticket is not presented. OCT A letter received from John JElder who lately left here for Pike's Peak, states that he is prospecting in the mountains, that he has found no diggings that would pay. That there is the greatest imaginable dis tress, that murders are committed daily and robberies without number. Many are subsisting upon the flesh of their deceased comrades, and every one that can is leaving, we have not room for the horrible incidents and details that he sends, having received them after our paper was made up, but they arc heart sicken:ng. a terrible responsibility rests upon the New York Tnluu, andoth sheets, which so alluringly set forth the prospects for wealth in that region. Mr. Greeley is now in that country, where he can be an eye-witness of the misery he has caused. 1 E O E AN E WAR The arrival of the steamer Vanderbilt, with later files of foreign papers, furnishes us with a few items, which although but casually alluded to in the brief telegraphic despatches, arc of more than passing im portance. W refer to the placing of Anco na in a state of Siege by the Austrians, and the consequent protest of the Pope, togeth er with the almost simultaneous declaration of the French Government, thai this action of the Austrians, if allowed by the Papal government, will be considered an infringe ment of the neutrality that the latter pro fesses to maintain. Between the summary action of the Aus trians and the indignant demands of the French, the unfortunate Pope is in a tight corner. Either of these powers can over turn his government, and to offend either would be fatal to his interests. These facts appear to herald the speedy downfall of Pius IX—an event which would not break the heart of Napoleon III. It is barely possible that the Papal gov ernment expected to maintan a state of neu during the Austrian and Sardinian war, and it is quite certain it strongly desir ed to do so. Cardinal Antonelli knows too well, the imminent danger to his power arising from political agitation in tho coun try over whi the Pope has secular sway. According to present appearances, Pius IX., in his dread of offending his dear son Fran cis Joseph on the one hand, and his dear son Napoleon on the other, is likely to of fend 1 oth and he fears, with reason, that the filial regard of his Imperial sons is not so great as to prevent them from disposing of him in any way that will further their own interests, without paying much regard to his. Tho protest by the Pope against the placing of Ancona in a state of siege was a formality absolutely necessary to the pres ervation to the Papal government of the last vestige of its dignity The cool as sumption of Austria, in taking this step was too great an outrage to be passed over in silence. Austiia has no more real right to assume such military power over Ancona than over Bologna or Rome itself, and the Pope could not do otherwise than protest against it, even were he not spurred up to such a declaration by the French Kmperor. lie has done the bost he could under the circumstances, but as he is now directly in volved in the great European quarrel* we may expect at any moment to hear of a decided change in the political features of tho Papal government.—A*. F. £v. Art a W I I E A S It seems, is not as difficult as when Na poleon the First achieved the task some 5 0 years ago. A foreign correspondent of the New York Timet, thus describes the gov eminent road over Mount Cenis, over which are now pouring the ench battallions, and over which runs a regular line of diligences: The road over Mount Cenia is McAdam ized throughout its whole extent, and is wide and in perfect order, consisting of easy grades. The" journey over the pass is no pleasant affair, even to one who occupied the protected seats of a comfortable dili gence—what must it be to soldiers on foot, wet with severe rains, and incumbered with knapsack and arms The pass is 6,825 feet high—nearly three hundred feet higher than the famous Sim plon pass. That of tho great St. Bernard, over which Napoleon conducted his army before any road had been formed, is 8,200 feet. The easy grades Of the Mount Cenis road, and the protection furnished by granite posts on its exterior, within seven or eight feet of each other—fit mly planted in the earth, and about four feet high—indicate that a principal object in thus forming it, was the easy and safe hauling of cannon and baggage over the line. 1 walked for miles over the road, in the ascent from the Sardinian side, and carefully observed its construction. The engineering difficulties were immense, but they have been over come with such skill, that the ascent is uni form and easy in every part. Occasionally a level place is left to afford relief to hoises the weariness of a steady pull. I na ticed that the marks of the drill used in blasting were nearly obliterated, the effect of long continued exposure to severe storms, and the character of the rock, which is a soft limestone. It may be, if the history of the road shall ever be lost, that future anti quarians may contend from the obliteration of all signs of blasting, that at least no great difficulties were encountered in its construction, even if they do not insist that was formed on a natural bed. One is with wonder that such a great work, over high mountains, should have been formed and finished on a line exceeding fifty miles, so completely that it exceeds in ex cellence any road I know of in the United States, whether public or private, or long or short. It is kept in high order, and is des cended on a brisk trot, with' entire safety. It seemed most appropriate, as this great road was tho work of the elder Napoleon, that the representative of his name should distinguish himself by using it for the march of a great army aimed at the same power which Napoleon successfully en countered soon after crossing the Alps." ENGLAND W I AUSTRIA. Mr. Bigelow, one of the editors of the New York Kvening Post, writes in his last letter from Paris There seems to be an impression here that England is destined to side with Aus tria, and I have beard bets offered within three days that England and the German powers would be fightiig with Austria against France and Russia think any one who had taken the bet would have won it, though it is not supposed that England can look with much complacency on a war which threatens to end in giving the commerce of the Mediterranean to France, and to place half a dozen Italian thrones at her disposal, and also to give to Russia, that long coveted access to the Ocean by the way of her Southern frontier. The En-papers glish dare not say a word against the osten sible cause of this war, the liberation of Italy, but I have not met one that feeds easy about the result. They ar. mortified at the utter failure of Lord Cowley's mis sion, not because it failed to give peace, but showed that England's influence upon continental politics is no longer what it used to lie, and that France and Russia, are playing the game without much respect for her assistance and advice. They have have counted England out," ard it is this in all probability which has sent a large British fleet into the Adriatic, of which you will doubtless receive full partiulars thro' your English files. We begin to see now,tributions, more clearly, why Cherbourg has been so strongly fortified, and why France has built ind equipped a fleet which has cost more than all her colonies are worth. The Empe ror is not sufficiently suie of the abiding af fections of his beloved sister of England to risk them under the tests to which he will have occasion to subject them, without ta king pledges from fortune. PHASER RIVER. The intelligence from Fraser river indi cates that the gold excitement in chat region was breaking out afresh but California pa pers discreit the truth of current reports in relation to the matter. The San. Francisco Herald, for example, devotes considerable space to the exposure of what it conceives to be their true character. That Journal of the 20th ult, remarks as follows: "It has never been denied that gold ex ists in the Fraser river country, but it has been proved by the irrefutable testimony of figures and actual calculations that it exists in such small quantities, and can only be ob tained at such a cast, that it is much more lucrative to let it alone than to attempt its possession by digging. Last year about thirty thousand American miners, men prac tically versed in the business, men whose energy and enterprise would balk at no ob-any stacle, completely overran the Fraser river country and explored almost its far best ac cessible limits in search of gold. They had the whole year be'ore them and used their time and opportunity to the fullest extent. But what was the result? Out of the thirty thousand who went to Fraser riv^-r, not one returned more wealthy by reason of the Fra ser gold. Some speculated in town lots at Victoraand mode money from the excite ment others dealt in merchandise and rea lized a hadnsom profit but wno came away richer in Fraser river gold?" Tee San Francisco HeraU figures up a loss of $4,500,000. expended for merchandise, passage money, on account of the gold diggings, in British Columbia, against $900, 000 received in return, one third was Cal ifornia gold coming ack. California people don't like any rival to their own mines, and have little reason to fear any that will be very formidable. E BATTLB FieLo OF MARENGO AGAIN. —A Turin lei tar says there is every appear a of an approaching great battle on thewas ground of Marengo, where Napoleon the Great won his memorable victory in June 1860. A French squadron is in the Adriaic. A new ministry has been formed in Florence. Virginia Election. RICHMOND, May 28. It is impossible, as yet, to give an accurate statement as to the actual result for Con gross or Legislature. Mr. Letcher will be elected governor by five or eight thou-and majority. 0^7" The Milwaukee Nem says, that since Sickles shot Key, no less than thirty-four men have been shot, or shot at, by injured husband*, that we have account of. A E 0 1 I I E O E ARRIVAL OK THE BTKAMEKS NKW YORK AND HAMUONIA AT NKW YORK, AND TnE HUNGARIAN AT QUEBEC. No Fighting, but VigorovTprepitrations. N E W YORK, May 30. The steamship Ne York arrived yes terday, bringing London dates to the 17th. News not very important. No battles had been fought in Italy up to the 16th. The Emperor Napoleon and King of Sar dinia hod fixed their headquarters at Ales sandria, and had already arrived there. All Sardinian vessels in Austrian ports are to be seized. The Austri ms have withdrawn from Rob bio. ENGLAND.— The Queen reviewed the troops at Aldershot on the 16th. The steamship Haiumonia sailed from Southampton on the 18th. The ship Thames, from Savannah, was partially burnt in the Liverpool dock on the 15th. She had a cargo of cotton and tim ber. FttANCE.—The correspondent of the Lon don Times, says the confidence of the suc cess of the army in Italy is so great that preparations will soon be made at Notre Dame for a Te Deum or thanksgiving for the great victory expected to be announced next week. All officers of the regiment of sappers to be commanded by Prince Napoleon left Par is on the 14th, for Toulon. A train of siege artillery had also left for Italy. It was rumored thai arms had been sent to Hungary, and that the Hungarians are effectually employed in fomenting insurrec tion in their country. It was reported that the Emperor Napo leon, before leaving Paris, addressed a letter to Queen Victoria, repeating his promise to take no step during the war to compromise the interests of Kngland. AUSTRIA.—Nothing farther from the seat of war. PIEDMONT.—The official bulletin of the 14th says the Austrians withdrew today from Ribbio, but a second and still stronger reconnoiteiing party had been pushed for ward to the walls of Verceili. The Emperor Napoleon, with Marshal Canrobert, rode through the streets of Ales sandria on horse-back, and were everywhere received with great demonstrations of joy. GERMANY.—A dispatch from Berlin savs the Diet was closed on 14th by the Prince Regent in person, who, in a speech, said th»t Prussia was determined to maintain the balance of power in Europe, and stand up tor the security and protection of the national interests of Germany, and expect ed all the German Confederation powers to stand firmly by her side in the fulfillment of that mission. India and China mails arrived at London with Calcutta dates of April 8, and Hong Kong 28. News unimportant. French troops had captured Saijon, a place of considerable importance in Cochin China. ARRIVAL OF THE HAMMONIA." N E W YORK, May 30. The steamship llammonia arrived from Southampton 18th ihsfc., and brings London of that day. Napoleon remained at Alessandria, busy with his generals in laying strategical plans. The Piedmontez cavalry had fallen in with a detachment of Austrian hussars and made me prisoners. Austria has recogniz»d the neutrality of the States of the Church. The bridge of Stella had been threatened by the Austrians, who have workmen as sembled there and at other points on the Po.sota, The Po had risen, and the women and chil dren of the country *rete compelled by the Austrians to labor at the works. Several Sardinian Mayors, who refused to comply with the Austrian demands for con had been arrested. Four Austrian merchant vessels hod been captured by the French squadron in theour Adriatic. The French squadron was before Venice on the 16th. On the 14th, the Austrians were at work leveling a casino, although the state of siege has been raised. France has not recognized the neutrality of Naples. Rome is tranquil. A PROGRAM E VOU AUSTRIAN E RO I N I A The following bloodthirsty order has just been issued to the inhabitants of Plaoenza by Gyulai, the commander of the Italian division of the Austrian army. It is the most highly accredited license for murder and highway robbery that has appeared in modern times: "A prevotal court is organized and only applies one punishment—that of death. The following are considered crimes incurring that penalty: 1. High treason, or any act tending to forcibly change the sjs'em of the empire of Austria and of the duchies, or to attract or increase any danger from abioid against the said states. 2. The conceal ment of arms or amunition of any kind. The public are particularly reminded that the punishment of death will be inflicted on one, whatever his condition may be orkeep however irreproachable his previous conduct may have tieen, who shall be found in poss ession of arms or ammunition, either on his person or in his house or any place to whi he may be supposed to have access. 3. Taking part in assemblages, whether armed or unarmed. 4 Illegal enlistment, acting as spy, seducing soldiers, whether they be long to the Austrians or allied troops* and generally all that may occasion disadvantage to the enemy. 5. Armed resistance or the aggression against sentinels or patrols, a the slightest violence against any Austrian or allied soldiers. A warning is also given that the sentinels and patrols will not only have a right but are ordered to use their arms against any one who shall not yield at the first summons." ARMS. It is argued that Austria will b3 lass ef fective in tht coming war because her great power is her cavalry, she having the best mounted and most active riders in the world. With the old musket, two hundred yards considered the proper charging distance for cavalry as at that distance shot began to tell. Now. however with th» Knfiell and Minnie rifle, infantry can reach cavalry at ihe distance of half a mi'e. If the drag oons quicken their pace to close, the mad dest charge will not. bring the horse on the bayonet in less than three minutes, and when he arrives he is blown and disabled, if he ever does arrive, for in traversing eight hun dred yards', at the top of his speed, he. re ceives half a dozen volleys from practiced 8'iarp shooters. This is no doubt true in regard to the effectiveness of the infantry of the present day by means of improved small arms but it will not be much of a change to turn the cavalry into mounted riflemen, armed like the infantry, which would make th#m tho most uftVtive troops in the field.— HEWS A A A S —There are 29,000 post offices in the United States. —A French writer estimates the whole number of vessels afloat£to be 90,50 —Walker,"the grey-eyed man of destiny, is residing quietly at San Francisco. —The chain cables of the steamship Great Eastern weigh seventy pounds per link. .7" Philadelphia Tract Society dis tributed 1,659,044 pages of tracts the nw year. & $ S Benjamin's constellation newspaper has "gone up." —The census to be taken next year will show the population of the United States to be over 30,000,000. —The Emperor Napoleon the III, having been born the 30th of Apnl, 1808. has com ploted his 51st year. —A Petersburg!!, Va., lost week, a party of factory girls administered an unmerciful thrashing to a libertine.

DESTRUCTIV E CONFLAGRATION IN E From the Expr si cf Herald of the 28th ult., we learn that the building in that city known as Odd Fellows' Block, was entirely consumed by a fire, which was discovered about 1 o'clock in the morning. The Htr ald says: The fire was discovered in the main hall of the second floor of Odd Fellows' Block, and spread with such rapidity as to render futile all efforts to check it, and in about an hour and a half the entire costly block was burned to the foundation. The Odd Fellows' Block was erected three years ago, at a cost of over $50,000, exclu sive of the fitting up of the People's Teater, which cost some $5,000. The Odd Fellows' Block is the third val uable buildi.ig that has been burned down in Dubuque within the last 18 months— •he other two being the Merchant's Hotel and the St. Cloud Hotel, the first of which cost $40,000 and the other 95,100." CHINES E I S E O Gl!f ENG The plant called Ginseng, the discovery of which in such large quantities in Minne has suddenly brought into existence a branch of profitable industry, employing hundreds of hands, derves its commercial value mainly from its consumption in Chi na, although it is often used in this country for certain valuable medicinal qualities it possesses. We have heretofore stated after some of exchanges, that it was chewed or smok ed by the Chinese for its exhilirating effects and used as tonic. We are informed how ever, by Bayard Taylor, that it is chiefly prized by the Chinese, as an aphrodisiate— being mainly used to stimulate the pas sions enervated by the debaucheries of that libidinous race of animals.

The times are now ripe for a political or ganization of a political movement in the slaveholding States, irrespective of party designations, of course and there are pe culiar reasons why such a movement should be undertaken now and here. Indeed we are credibly informed that conferences have already been held, by the leading patriotic gentlemen in this city, of all parties, and the plans of a Southern organization have been set on foot, and almost matured pre vious to going into action. W earnestly hope the good work may go on and speedily. The country, we repeat, is ripe for the move ment, and if judiciously inaugurated, it will sweep over the land with a force that no opposition will be able to check- We there fore caution our friends in the country, everywhere to be prepared for it, and to themselves tree from all entangling alliances which may hinder them from joining it untrammelled.
