The Harri?burR Telegraph, of yesterday, gives an incident that happened during the stay of President Buchanan at Bedford Springs.? There was sojourning.thero a beautiful Pennsyl vania woman, remarkable for her singing pow ers, and1 who has, on all occasions, almost, been requested to entertain company in that way.? One evening, when Mr. Buchanan and his cour tiers bad assembled in the parlor of the hotel, a call was made for the lady in question, which she modestly, but firmly declined. The Presi dent, supposing that his influence would be all powerful with her, went to her, "Urgently insisted again that she should com ply with hiB request, adding that the company were much disappointed at her refusal. She tlien turned to him, and deliberately and em phatically said: "Their disappointment was not to be compared to that experienced by the people in consequence of the acts of some of those in the highest government positions." Now, in all due deference to the Telegraph, which applauds the refusal and the remark of the lady in question to the President, we think that it was very unlady like?not to say abso lutely rude and law. No American lady ever yet had cause to offer such an insult, or rebuke> if you please, to the Chief Magistrate of her country. Such a remark would probably be patriotic and commendable in an Italian lady at a Florence ball, to an Austrian captain, or even the Emperor, but in this country it was as ab surd as it was impertinent. Some days ago the following pointed and stinging satire on the social condition of things in and about Baltimore, was got off by an Eastern paper : Scene in a Newspapeu Office.?Foreman.? Please, Mr. Editor, send me one or two para graphs to fill out a column. Editor.?What shall they be? Let me see? Foreman.?A murder, riot, lapc, or anything horrible, will do. Editor.?Here, boy, bring me a Baltimore paper. (The editor clips at random.) The above clip, to one who has been at all familiar with the state of facts that for a good while back have existed in Baltimore, possesses a point, and conveys an impression of a practical character. It comes as near?indeed, a great deal nearer, being an abridgement of what really exists, than did the spicy epigrams of Hudibras of the characters and scenes which they are said so truthfully to picture. "We had in our telegraphic column yesterday a condensed report of a local item which had appeared in the Sun, which was but one of many that have made Baltimore rowdyism both famous and infamous all over the country. On the steamer Georgia, running on an ex cursion from Baltimore to Old Point, and back, we. once witnessed several scenes hardly less disgraceful than the one which we published in synopsis yesterday, and which we now subjoin in full from the Hun : Riot on a Camp-Meetino Boat?Butchery and Outrage?Arrest oj Four of the Perpe trators.?On Saturday night the steamer Ex press left this city for Lloyd$?Springs camp meeting, on the Ohoptank river, with between three hundred and four hundred passengers on board. Shortly after passing Port Mcllenry it became evident that there would be trouble on board, and alarm took hold of the passengers. Before reaching the Bodkin, a party of disor derly men, who rallied under the cries of Eu bols, Ranters and Rip Raps, went forward and made an attack on the colored people, who oc cupied that part of the boat. At first they amused themselves by knocking down the males and females of the colored passengers, when application was made to the captain to take some measures to put a stop to such pro ceedings. Nothing was done, and after a time the disorderly disposed went down into the forward saloon, where several colored men had taken refuge. The assailants approached a man, and one of them stabbed him in four places, in the side and chest They then blew out all the lights in the saloon, and began an indiscriminate attack on white and colored.? Mr: Jeremiah Slaughter was robbed of $28. Mr. William D. Glass was robbed of $20, and another party was robbed of a valuable gold watch and chain. There being no prospect of any more booty in the saloon, the disorderlies again went on deck and blowing out all the lights, went to the for ward part of the boat, again, among the colored * people. Oue man and his wife were standing together near the bow, and thought they would escape observation. The man, however, was knocked down, and he was held while his pock ets were rifled of all they contained, lie was then stabbed several times, and his wife, who had witnessed the whole proceeding, was out raged in his presence, while she vainly cried for help. Some of the passengers again called on the officers of the boat, and the committee who had chartered her, and volunteered, if called on, to quell the riot and conGnc the disturbers of the peace in the hold until the boat should re turn to tho city. The attack was continued un til several colored men were severely stabbed, and a much larger number horribly beaten.? Among'thbse that were stabbed was a man em ployed as a. drayman by Mr. Welch, in South street, one by Messrs. Smith & Edmonson, on Cheapside, and one by Messrs. T. T. Martin it Bro., on Calvert- street Who the others were not ascertained, but it was said that one of them died from the effects of his wounds. About day light on Sunday morning, the boat approached Cambridge, and the captain, at the request of the passengers, landed at that town. Sheriff Yickers, of DorohesterT county, was notified of -the outrages that had been commit ted, and.summoning two or three of-his depu ties proceeded to the wharf for the purpose, of arresting^the guilty.parties. At first thoy defted his authority; but he called, on some of the pas sengers who had witnessed the whole of the riot, and some four of the party were taken from thp bpat. " Two'of them gave their names as Skiriner'.and Robinson, but the names of the others were not ascei taincd. They were taken before .lostice Robert R. Rolinsonj of Cambridge, and. Charles Goldsbor ough/Esq., tho prosecuting attorney, appeared op tHe part of Ihe Slate. The whole of them K were committed to jail for trial at the approach ing term of the Circuit Court for that county. The boat then proceeded, to the camp meeting, where the police force was so strong-that no at tempt was made - to create disorder on the grounds. They left again on Sunday afternoon, for this city, bu* several of the passengers were obliged to stop in' Cambridge, because their: lives were threatened, and came up in the Kent yesterday afternoon. While the Express was on her way up to the city, an attack was made on the engineer, who escaped by locking him self up in his room, his assailants threatening to throw him overboard. The whole affair is represented by those who witnessed it, as .hav ing been most fearful. Females were thrown into consternation, and the rioters were appeal ed to for their sakes, to desist, but they paid no heed to it. The editor of the Utica Herald, who has vis ited the British House of Commons, thus de scribes Disraeli's personnel, in the last number of his paper; Disraeli's face is not simply the most pas sionless, but one of the most .disagreeable eyes ever looked on. It is long, sallow and billions. The eyes are deep-set, the nose is long, the lips are compressed as if in a vice. If there is any expression about his mouth it is a faint sneer. The general impression one gets is that of a tnan who has no faith either in God or man? who dpspises the whole world, and would like to see it burnt up. But it is when others aro most hilarious that Disraeli is most impertura bly grave. It is when the House is convulsed with laughter, that his countenance assumes its most stolid expression. Never for a single mo ment, under provocation, \ by any accident, do those rigid muscles relax,?does a sin gle gleam of mirth light up the void of that sphynx-like countenance. It is difficult to re alize that the late Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the author of Tancred and the "Wondrous Tale of Alroy" are one and the same person. Some time ago an article from the Buffalo Re public (Douglas organ) went the rounds of the press, in which it was roundly asserted that Douglas Delegates to the Charleston Convention would be assassinated on account of their "abo litionism," unless backed by a bodyguard of ten thousand men ; and the importance of taking this precaution, in said articje, therefore, was strongly urged. A Milwaukie correspondent of the Charleston News, who signs himself J. J. San ders, we now see, writes that the programme suggested by the Republic is bound to be car ried out, and that the "armed forces" will be levied from the different States in the following proportions, viz.: Wisconsin will send a delegation of five hun dred of her Democratic sons to accompany the delegates of the State Convention, to be chosen next month. These five hundred arc all Doug- j las Democrats. Minnesota sends a delegation of j three hundred Douglas men. Michigan eight hundred, Iowa live hundred, Ohio one thousand, Illinois fifteen hundred, Pennsylvania one thou siind. New York one thousand, and nearly all the New England States one thousand each.? This is a secret plan ; and it is understood that Douglas will have at least twenty thousand friends in Charleston during the Convention. An Extract from Benton's "Thirty Years." Mr. Benton, in this "Thirty Year's View," says that in 1760 the imports of Charleston were $2,602,000. In 1853 they had dwindled down to $1,750,000;?a decrease of $912,000 in nineiy-fivo years, a slow but ominous and high i ly significant diminution. ' The census of 1850 shows the value of all . the farms, farming implements and machinery |in Pennsylvania to be worth $442,508,640; whilst in South Carolina the same articles were worth only $86,518,038;?a difference of $356, 080,602 in favor of Pennsylvania. In other words, these items in Pennsylvania were worth five times as much as the same were worth in South Carolina. By the same census the value of all the real and personal estate of Pennsylvania amounted to $72!l,144,088. In South Carolina, including 384,925 slaves, to $288,257,064;?a difference of $440,887,304 in favor of Pennsylvania. Tn other words, the Free State of Pennsylvania is ' worth nearly three times as much as the Slave J State of South Carolina. The number of free '.inhabitants in the City of Philadelphia is 308, 1702; in South Carolina 283,544?showing that | the City of Philadelphia, alone, contains 125,218 j more free inhabi i of South Carolina, 1 We have hid away, in a quiet, scquestorcd spot, a man who will be the next President of ?the United States.?Memphis, (Teiin.)

Wise and Old spent "some thiity-six hours in executing the forms of settlement of their bloodless battle, or about ' thirty hours more than Napoleon and Francis f Joseph occupied in making peace after the lato Italian war. It is positively stated that the cor respondence will be ready for publication to morrow. Too much consequence has been given the affair already. The Pike's Peakers have held a convention and adopted a constitution, which is to be sub mitted to popular vole. If sustained, the vote is to be considered as favorable to a State Gov ernment, and if not, to a Territorial one. Tho convention adopted a memorial to Congress, asking to be organized as a Territory, to be called Jefferson. ?i ? ?

As "Italian wife," who begged for a living at Cincinnati, recently ran away from her Italian husband of the same city.

Douglas' Hoosb inWashington?Thb People WHO CONGREGATE there. ,, [From a IV uhlngton le t ter.] On any evening may be found at the resi dence* of Sepator Douglas Democrats of .all shades, as well as every class offence men. On Friday evening lhst was quite a large gathering there of politicians, of all: stripes, by special invitation. Prominent among the guests were Senator Iveison of Georgia, Mr. Browne, editor of The Constitution (the Government organ,) Mr. Coom's, editor of The Republic, and many other leading Southern and Northern party men. There was much private and confidential conversation between Mr. Douglas and the rep resentatives of the different factions there as sembled. Mr. Douglas appeared to take all by surprise by the strong and decided opinions he express sed in the conversation. He said that the whole iSlavery question was a momentous one, and must be fought, and fought now to the end, and the qucstiou whether himself or any other man-was to-be nominated for or elected to the Presidency, sank into insignificance in compar ison: with the great issue. He was very vehe tnent in his denunciations, and ridiculed the idea entertained by many of his Democratic friends, that by the decision in tho Dred Scott case Slavery existed in or went into the Territo ries?contending that no such decision had been made; or if made, could have no binding force; that such an idea was ridiculous in the ex treme;!^ wondered that any were found so fool ish as to harbor such a thought. Ho contended that Slavery could not get into tho Territory except by special local enactment after a Terri torial Government hod been duly formed, and that Slavery did not and could not exist in the Territories, until then; that all persons who go into a Territory before an act has been paised for the establishment of a Territorial Govern ment, are interlopers and tresspassers, and have none of the rights of "citizens of the several States," and can claim no protection nor obtain j redress for grievances of the general Govern ment; and hence they can have no legal protec tion or claim for any slaves they may take with thcui. Broaucloth tub Enemy of Health.?Profes sor Hamilton, in an able address on hygiene to the graduates of the Buffalo Medical College, denounces broadcloth as an enemy to exercise, and therefore to health. His remarksare point ed and sensible. He says: American gentlemen have adopted as a na tional cestume, broadcloth?a thin, tight fitting black suit of broadcloth. To foreigners, we seem always to be in mourning, we travel in black, we write in black, and we work in black. The priest, the lawyer, the doctor, the literary man, the mechanic, and even tho day laborer, choose always the same unvarying, monotonous black broadcloth; a stylo and material which never ought to have been adopted out of the drawing room or the pulpit; because it is a fee ble and expensive fabric; because it is at the North 110 suitable protection against the cold, nor is it indeed any more suitable at the South, ft is too thin to be warm in the winter, and too black to he cool in tho summer; but especially do wo object to it because the wearer is always soiling it by exposure. Young gentlemen will not play ball, or pitch quoits, or wrestle and tumble, or any other similar thing, lt&t their broadcloth should be offended. .They will not go out into the storm, because the broadcloth will lose its lustre if rain lalls upon it; they will not run because they have no confidence in the strength of the broadcloth; they dare not mount a horse, or leap a fence, because broadcloth, as everybody knows, is so faithless. See these young men, mid these older men, merchants, mechanics, and all, learn to walk, talk and think soberly and carefully; they seldom ven ture even to laugh to the lull extent of their sides.

An Ancient Advertisement.?The following advertisement was extracted from the Boston Evening Post, of November 7th, 1748; "Choice Pennsylvania Tobacco Paper to be sold by the publishers of this paper, at the Heart and Crown?'where also may be had the UVLLS or Indulgences of the present Pope Urban Till., either by the single bull, quire or ream, at a much cheaper rate than they can be purchased of tho French or Spanish priests, and yet will be warranted to be of the same advan tage to the possessors." These bulls or indulgences of the Pope were printed on one side of a small sheet; several bales of them were taken in a Spanish ship, capturod by an English cruiser and sent into ISnston. Fleet, the publisher of the Post, pur chased a Jvery large quantity, at a very low price, and printed various editions of ballads on the hack of them. One side of the sheet was blank, and tho paper very good; one bull an swered for two half-sheet ballads or songs, such as "Black Eyed Susan," &c. The indomitable Parson Brownlow writes to the editors of the Nashville Ihtnner, in a tone of exultation at the brilliant success achieved in the Congressional elections in Tennessee, and at the cheering gains of the Opposition on the State ticket. He thus characteristically winds up: "Let us up and at them again! Let us light on, fight ever! We have our quarrel just?we arc on the right side?we must and will tri umph. For my own part, I this day resolve anew, to begin tho fight, and come what will, I will be found in the ranks of the Opposition, fighting the most corrupt and profligate party that was ever organized in Tennessee or else where?that unwashed, undrcumcised and. un principled party, falsely called the 'National Democracy.' " ( ? " 1 " * * - I ? A son of Cassius M. Clay, whilo gunning re cently, was bitten on the loot by some poison ous reptile, supposed to be a rattlesnake, and his body immediately exhibited all the symp toms of the most virulent poisoning; hut he was dosed until stupefied witii "apple brandy, nnd the next morning was as well as ever. So con fident was Mr. Clay of the efficacy of alcoholic spiiits in all' cases of poison by the/ biles of bnakes.atld insects, that he did not even send for a.pliysician. Saleratus was bound upon the bitten spot, until-ammonia could be procured, when the former was moistened with 'it. This was upon the theory that poison is an acid, and only alkali will answer, though ammonia is thought to be thJhest. ; : - " A Benainlaceuce. {From the Brooklyn Transcript, Wharton's paper. 1 A few dnys since,, your journal gave an inter esting article, on "the beauties of the mornin"-" written by this eloquent man.
