The Kevrs.
The Yanderliflt arrived yesterday morning, with
European news to the afternoon of the 22d ult.,
four days later than the accounts previously received.
There is nothing especially important from
the seat of war in Italy. All parties were actively
preparing for another great combat, the intelligence
of which was momentarily expected to reach London
when the steamer sailed.

the new British Ministry has been received, together
with their addresses to their constituents,
which in some degree foreshadow the policy of the *
administration. It will be seen that Mr. Richard ]
Cobdea's name is not in the list.
The Marseilles papers state that the Egyptian ,
Ministry hsd suspended the Suez canal works.
The French Consul had offered his mediation in
the matter.
The condition of affairs on the Continent had
caused considerable fluctuation in public securities
in London. The latest quotations for consols are
92j a 92$.
The Liverpool cotton market was quiet, without
change in prices, while a slight improvement in the
demand for breadstuffs and provisions is reported*
The steamship Cahawba arrived last evening, with
advices from Havana to noon of the 29th ult They
contain little of importance. The health of the city
continued good, with but little sickness in the harbor.
Two cargoes of coolies, numbering 930, had
just been Unoed, and other cargoes of the same
sort were daily expected. The sugar market was
dull, and freights less active and declining. The i
Cahawba brings $170,000 in specie
Our correspondent at Cardenas, writing on the
24th nit., soys:?On the 19th inst. 412 coolies landed
here from the Italian bark L'Abito, and twenty* ,
seven died on the passage from Calcutta. They
look well, and we know from their countrymen now
here that they are good laborers. The quantity of
Bugar in warehouse is trifling, and molasses is getting
scarce. Vessels are leaving in ballast. The
port is healthy, and so is the whole island. Quiet
pervades all classes. A rumor is prevalent here
that if the war in Europe should become general
Spain will assuredly join France.
By the arrival of the schooner Arcade,Cap! Carl,
at this port yesterday, we have news from Aux
Cayes, St. D. mingo, to the 20th nit. Everything
was quiet throughout the republic, aud extensive
preparations were in progress at Aux Cayes to receive
President Gefl'rard, who was expected there
in a few days for the express purpose of reducing
the export duty on coffee. Business was very dull,
but a revival was predicted when the new crop
came in. i
We have accounts from Belize, Honduras, to the i
14th ult. The reports that the English government
was about to surrender its claim to the Mosquito
protectorate had created considerable uneasiness
among the British mahogany cutters, while, on the
other hand, the Honduranoes were elated at the
prospect. The mahogany yield this year will, it is
said, be the most productive ever known, and the 1
rum and sngar crop has been very fair. Business
was very dull, and a large fleet of vessels wa3 in the
harbor waiting cargoes. The provision market was
overstocked. ,
But few liquor shops kept open doors yesterday, as ;
will be seen by our report in another column. The la j
ger beer saloons were principally, however, open
the proprietors taking the ground that Kgo; is not '
an intoxicating beverage, and that it is no violation
of law to sell it on Sundav. Mr. Pillsbury, the now 1
Police Ruperinlendent, has not signified whatoction '
he shall take upon the matter of enforcing the Sun- 1
day laws. The general' closing of the liquor sa. (
loons yesterday was in conformity with a recent
order of Deputy Superintendent Carpenter.
During the past week there were 59 admissions
to the City Hospital, 51 discharged or relieved, 7
died, and 261 remaiping on July 1. Of that number \
223 are males and 42 females.
The balloon Atlantic, which started from St. Louis
on Friday on a voyage to tho seaboard, landed '
near Troy yesterday. We have received no parti- 1
calam of the trip nor of its termination. 1
From the mass of correspondence that has 1
reached tia wifrdn the hut rcw days, and for all of
whioh we could not find room in our oolumna, we
have made such a compilation as embraces all the
points of interest contained in Buch communications
and as may prove interesting to the general
reader. It will be fouud elsewhere in our columns.
The steamship Star of the South, Captain
Lyons, which left Savannah on the 29th ult,
arrived at this port last evening. She reports
breaking lier connecting shaft on Friday
night last, hut continued her conrse under s&il
until Saturday night, when she wus struck by lightning,
which shattered her fore topmast and foro
topgallant mast, and finally expended itsolf in the
ice-house, doing considerable damage, but nothing

of tho passengers wi ic injured, and the ship
was found to be peifectly sound after the stroke.
About two o'clock yesterday afternoon the Cahawba
came up with the Star of the South, twenty
milts to the southward of Sandy Hook, and took
her in tow and brought her safely into port
The Most Rev. Archbishop Hughes preached yes
terday in St Peter's church, Barclay street
Having understood that the theme of his discourse
was to be tho temporal sovereignty of tho Pope,
one of our reporters was on hand to make a ver
duiiui report 01 me kcddud. iu? ?itoio nnu m>uo
fabric of the sermon was, however, the reiteration
und enforcement of the Catholic dogma tlut Ike
iiomaii Church w the Church of Christ, and that
outside of that mystical body there is no Christianity.
The Archbishop glanced but once at the
idea of temporal power and riches and prosperity,
and that was in connection with the poverty and
backwardness of Catholic countries, and in doing
so he cited the case of Satan tempting Christ by
ottering him all the kingdoms of the earth. The
Archbishop, however, did not enlarge on the illustration,
seeing perhaps that it would give room for
the remark that Satan was more successful in
similar experiments with the successors of St. Peter
some centuries afterwards. In the afternoon a
large congregation assembled at St. Peter's church,
when the Archbishop admin latere 1 the sacrament
of confirmation to about four hundred and fifty

rite News froiu the War?Brilliant Ai'UoiiH
or Garibaldi.
Tbe news from the seat of war in Italy, received
by the Vanderbflt, which arrived at this
port yesterday, brings uh intelligence from that,
quarter up to tbe 21st of June. No important action
had then taken place between the main armies
of the belligerents, but they were taking up sucb
positions as would render a terriblo combat inevitable
in a short time. Francis Joseph bad
placed himself at the head of his army and established
his headquarters at Villa Franca, a
point on the railroad line between Verona and
Mantua, almost in the centre of the great strategic
quadrangle. The French, under Louis Napoleon,
occupied Brescia, almost iu a direct line
west of Pescbiera, the northwestern defence of the
quadrangle, and connected with it by the railroad
from Vienna to Milan; while Victor Emauuel,
with tbe main body of the Sardinian army,
was near tbo little village of Ca.itcgaato, a fbw
miles from Brescia. The Allied forces then, were
concentrated in full strength at one point, while
tbe main body of the enemy, with the Austrian
Emperor commanding in person, were awaiting
their attack in the very heart of their strongest
defences. Ere this, perchance, the shock of war
bas been felt between the Mincio and AdJge, and

:eiv ed a fatal and a final blow.
It was believed In Europe that, although the
French army, in accordance with the pledges
of Napoleon, would not follow up the
campaign beyond the borders of Italy, should
the Austrians be driven out, that the revolutionary
armies raised in all quarters of the peninsula,
and now being further augmented by the
efforts of Klapka and Kossuth, would, in conjunc
tion with the Sardinians, carry the war into Austria
itself, and there strike at the root of the
Ilaptburg tyranny. Should such an event transpire?and
it seems not Improbable?the mobilized
army of Prussia, the army of the Germanic
Confederation, and the soldlera of every State in
Germany, would be instantly in the field, and we
should soon behold the terrific spectacle of all
Europe battling upon every frontier on the Continent.
Turning our eyes from the popition of the main
armies in the centre of Lombardy, if we look towards
the north we will see the indefatigable Garibaldi,
who seems to be the omnipresent hero of
the campaign, gallantly striving hand to hand
with the Austrians, and at all points, wheresoever
he meets tbem, achieving something for the
cause of Italy. In the first days of the struggle
we find bim pouncing down with his small baad
of gueirillas upon Vareee and Como, capturing
those cities from the enemy, and pushing on iu
>ue uirecuon 01 inn Tyrol as far as Soudrio,
raising the wbole country into insurrection, and
strengthening his forces as he goes. Now, overwhelmed
by superior numbers, which come fresh
upon bim by railroad from Brescia, then held by
the Austrians, be is forced to retire step by step
to the shores of Moggiore, leaving behind him the
morale of his victories. Rallying at Laveuo, he
dashes back upon bis foes aud compels them to
evacuate all the positions they had retaken, and
again obtains possession of the line ol country
commanding a portion of the mountain passes
from the north. Agaio we find him greeting the
Emperor and the King within the waits of Brescia
after their capture of the Lombard capital, aud,
alter a brief consultation, betaking himself back
to the scene of action In the north, where he
again cncountero the Austrians on the Chiese,
and again obtains a victory. The last accounts
represent bim as throwing a bridge over the
Chiese, near Castenedomo, with a view to keep
open a communication with Brescia. Here the
AiMrians?under General Urban, we presume?
attacked him in force, but were driven back
laving first succeeded iu blowing up Garibaldi'
bridge. Meantime, Victor Emanuel despatched
Claldlni, the Sardinian General, to support
Garibaldi, whereupon the Austrians withdrew
ftom Castenedomo.
The Austrians seem resolved to hold the passes
leading through the Tyrol at all hazards, which,
in a strategic point of view, are essential to them
We learn that they have occupied the Stelvlo
pass, where tbey have a strong force of artillery,
and are constructing entrenchments. But we
may expect a smart brush in that quarter before
long, for some three thousand French troops arc

A (Iain.?Our readers, especially those of the
democratic ohurcb, will remember the very remarkable
speech made sometime ago in Tammany
Hall by that facetious Mississippi tiro"
eater, Senator Brown. We peroelve, from oar
Southern exchanges, that he fcw- been at it -(gain,
m the some peculiar vein of Southern democratic
independence, among the people ox Miir-daeippl ?
that he bos thus given "utterance to the opiiJoa
that Mr. Buchanan, Gem Cats, Mr. Toncey, Mr.
Bright, Mr. Dickinson, and the whole Northern
democracy, except a small Spartan baud, are unreliable
on the question of the right of Southern
men to the protection of their property (slaves)
in the common Territories." la another of these
Dome speeches, delivered at a barbecue, Mr.
Brown is represented as having said that?
The. drmo.-ritlc p?riy ?u being abolition lzod. It re
fbted to acknowledge (be duty or Congrro* to protect
slavery in t>*e rerniories. He proclaimed that the only
bope of the S.vnbern drmo?Tncy to mate a fight ia thi

the Northern free mu onmuct wooll > ..id agraceful sub
nr. ismon again. If it did not, why then apply Ih* torch to
the great temple of democracy, and blow the concern to
flinders.
la reply to these aforesaid charges against the
administration, the Jackson Mistiiuippian conies up
to tbo defence oi the President; whereupon the
Charleston Mercury zealously undertakes to prove
the correctness of the declarations of Mr. Brown.
Thus, the Mercury reverts to that exploded
humbug "of a compromise recently made
between the PrealdGnt and Tl<mvU4 nn th*>
t'-rms of his ignoring the repudiation of
the Drcd Scott decision,'' and to the "open
reconciliation with Walker, the right hand
man and staunch friend of Douglas," and says
that "preparations are making to whitewash
Douglas in the Charleston Convention] by coinpromising
and betraying the territorial rights of
the South."
Now, while Mr. Buchanan has unquestionably
given offence to our Southern fire-eaters, filibusters
and African slave traders, from tins indexible
adhesion to his constitutional duty of seelug
"the laws faithfully executed," wo dare ooy that
among the Bober, sensible, law-abiding people of
the South, as sunong the same powerful classes
of the North, the course of the President in regard
to filibustering, slave trading and nullification
is heartily approved. The administration,
on the other band, would be justly subject to
public contempt if it could descend for a momeut
to the loose, disorganizing and lawless
policy suggested in the fire-eating and filibustering
speeches o 1 such restless Southern agitators
ob Senator Brown.
With regard to the Charleston Convention,
should these Southern disorganizes there "apply
the torch to the great temple of democracy,
and blow the concern to flinders," we think that
the Union might possibly survive the explosion.
Nay, more: it is possible that with the blowing
up of the "great temple of the democracy" this
rotten and corrupting party convention system
of making Presidents will be succeeded, on oil
sides, by a better state of things. Certainly,
from ibe three highest candidates out of four
of live from an independent popular election, the
House of Representatives at Washington will be
as competent to choose a satisfactory President
as any irresponsible body of political gamblers
and loafers under the name of a national party
(Jbnveiition. Finally, we would admonish Mr.
Brown, that unless he and his fellow fire-eating
and filibustering agitators of the South make up
their minds to fall back at Charleston behind
the strong entrenchments of the administration,
the democratic party will be blown "to flinders.''
Tine New British Ministry.?In another
colamu will be found a list of the new Palmerston
administration, with such evidences of their
viewB on the foreign and domestic policy of England
as are to be gleaned from their addresses to
tbeir constituents. The men who compose the
Cabinet in the new list are, it will be seen, with
a couple of exceptions, the same whose names we
gave the other day. In place of Mr. Cobden we
find Mr. James Wilson substituted as President
of the Hoard of Trade, whilst Mr. Cardwell goes
as Secretary to Ireland. The omission of Mr.
Colxlen's name from the Ministry will strike
every one with surprise, as it was generally understood
that he had been offered and had accepted
a place in it. We see by the QazetU that
tbe appointment of Mr. Wilson to thiB office is
merely a provisional one, so that Mr. Cobden is
probably btill hesitating as to whether he will
take it
Should this explanation tarn out to be the
correct one, and Mr. Cobden finally decline
to make part of Lord Palmerston's
administration, it will be an Indication
that its programme in connection with
Parliamentary reform is not deemed satisfactory
by tbe Manchester men. Although they will
support the government in its foreign policy,
tbey may not feel disposed to compromise their
position on the great question with which they
are identified by accepting office in a Ministry in
wbicb strong differences of opinion must prevail
in regard to it
On tbe Italian question but little is to be
gleaned from the electioneering professions of the
new Ministers. They all declare themselves in favor
of the strictest neutrality without committing
themselves to any further specific views.' At this
early stage of its existence it is not, of course, to
be expected that the administration should
launch out into any premature statements of its
policy. The circumstances under which it comes
into power are, however, we think, a sufficient
guarantee that it will offer no obstacles to the
establishment of Italian independence.

bj be lUvaiia, which we pul.lirlud yesterday,
a no ?> tl? Y?idertoilt, which we publish to-day,
w? It* urn thai the brst movement of revolt in the
Papal States, of which we had news a week ago,
hue aeeiiun d formidable proportions, and that
tri m Dciostia tbe Hume of revolution baa ext
end Hi to Ravenna, Rimini arid other cities in
tbe Papal dominions. This turns out exactly as
we predicted on Tuesday last. Not only have
the Austrian* been compelled to evacuate tho
prmc'psl el'i-e and fortresses in tbe Stales of tbe
Church, but the people have arisen in these
p?ac< s and declared fbr the national cause. Tbe
Pope has sen* hi* Swiss hirelings to Perugia to

jccts or I'alixn K>Wii:r? to tight for hiin. But
hew little chance ohu thin handful of mercenaries
huvc against the people, now that the Austrian
"eg'oiic are out of the way! Were it not for the
presence of Fr< i.nh troops Home itself would be
now revolutionized, and the Pope would have
boon ago n an exile at Gaeta or mine other
stronghold of Naples. Napoleon holds the dog*
of revolution In his leash; he bus only to let
'betn loose, and Home is either once more a republic
or has pronounced ior King Viotor
Etnsnuel. Bnt the time has not yet come for revolution
at Rume.
We are infer aw d, by a correspondent of the
Paris Unirer*, thai the French Emperor sent ba?k
a deputation from Bologna, which visited him
alter the revolution of that city, bidding
them obey their sovereign the Pope, and to
remember that be (Napoleon) had not come
into Italy to lessen the Pope's power, but to
make it respected- Coupled with this there is
" a rumor " that a deputation had goue from
Mo]opna to the Pope to lo-k his pardon
for the recent revolt. News coming from such a
source is to be taken with a graiu of salt The
Vtiktrs is very doubtful authority on a matter in
which " the wish is father to the tbougui" But
it a deputation bin gone from Bologna to the
Pope, it perhaps speaks only for itBelf, or for a
very small fraction of the people. And if Na
poison bas given the answer to the Bolegnese
deputation which he is represented to have
given, it is evidently suggested by prudence iu
| present exigencies, aud it ia no indication of bin
intentions at) to the future. Ilia designs may
| eurely be better determined from bis deliberate
stddicau to the people of Italy, after the victory
' of Mageuta, published.by hia own authority, than
from any vague hearsay conversation reported
without a voucher for its authenticity. In that
address?an address to the whole Italian people
without distinction?he Fays that bo had oome
" to render free the most beautiful land in Europe,
and.that do obstacle phould be raised to the
tree manifestation of their legitimate wishes." If
this is not telling them that they may choose their
own rulers or their own form of govrnment, there
is no meaning in language. From a correspondence
of the British Ambassador it appears that
Napoleon promised at Akssandria, in reply to a
message from the Pope, that "he would respect
the neutrality of the Pope's dominions as loDg
! as it was respected by the Anstrians." Just so.
Bat the Austrians have not respected it at all, and
the Vienna correspondent of the London Hmn
says that "recent eventB show that the neutrality
of the domains of the Church is not likely to
bo resperVd by tho Enaporor of France."
But the beet key to the designs of Napoleon
is the denunciation which he Is receiving
from the Catholic bishops in Vienna, Ireland,
and New York?from the very dignitaries
of the church who, at the time of the coup
d'Oat and as long as he appeared to short-sighted
and narrow-minded ecclesiastics likely to be
a despotic monarch, ruling the people with a
rod of iron and repressing the outbursts of human
liberty around him, were loud in their
praise of the "Catholic Prince." In this
country, from Brownson's Review down to the
meanest little sheet, the Catholio press defended
his acts and covered him with laudations. Biographies
of the most eulogistic kind were issued
by the Catholic publishers, and the altars rerounded
with pxanB and hosannahs to his name.
He was almost deified, and had he died then, before
he fulfilled his mission, he would have been
probably canonized and enrolled in the calendar
of the saints.
ThiB is all changed now. On Saturday we
adverted to the fulminations of the organ of
Archbishop Hughes. In the news from Europe
which we publish to-day there Is a still more remarkable
manifesto from a Catholic bishop in
Ireland, who follows his primate in tbe metropolis,
as no doubt other bishops in this country will
follow their metropolitan in New York. Dr.
Leahy?for that is his name?asks, "What sovereign
in Europe can plead a better title to his
dominions than the Holy Father to his?" We
answer none, for all their titles are not worth "a
red cent." They are founded either in force or
fraud?not in the will of the people?and the
Pope's is to be classed in the same category with
the rest The Bishop of Casliel says it is more
ancient than any other, and that the Pope
got his kingdom entirely by peaceable means.
How, In the face of the Catholic historians,
which he must have read, this Catholic prelate
could make such an assertion, is beyond our
comprehension. Certain it is that he calculated
largely upon the ignorance and credulity of
those to whom he addressed his pastoral. All
who know anything of history know that King
Pepin, in 755, conferred upon the Pope his temporal
dominions, and that before his time there
were numerous kings and kingdoms in Europe.
As ior "the tiara with its triple crown," which Dr.
Leahy says graced the Pope's brow centuries
and centuries before any of the kingdoms rose
into which Europe is now partitioned, he lubors
under a grave historical mistake. The first
Pope who ever caused himself to be crowned
was Damaecns n., in 1053. And will Dr. Leahy
pretend that no kiDgdom of Europe rose before
that time? It was a mere cap which was worn
by Damascus. John XIX. fitBt encircled it with
a CTOwn, in 1276. Boniface V1U. added a second
crown in 1295, and Benedict XIL, in 1334,
added tbe third crown, thus fanning the triple
tiara. Surely Dr. Leahy does not mean
to say that none of the present kingdoms or
Europe existed before that time. Ttjc khg
dome of France, Spain, England and Germany
aroee long before, to say nothing of the ki?. ^ oi
hfs own nation; Brian Boru, who w>s crowned at
Tara in 1002; Malachl, who wore the collar o:
gold In the Dinth ccntnry; Nlall, of the Nine Hostages,
who flourished In tbe iourth century; Con.
of the Hundred Battles, who reigned in tbe se
cond; and Ollamb Fodbla, who lived 1,000 years
before any Pope was beard of. Where are the
crowns of these kings now ? Where tbe crown
of the Pop's will soon be forever. Toe argument
horn antiquity, therefore, does not serve.

that tbey are readiug the statement o*
aa edaoated man, aa Dr. Leahy undoubtedly is.
The Pope got bis dominions precisely by "deeds
of volence;" and we could easily show, if we
had room in an editorial article for such details,
that "the piuriaiony of St Peter," aa it is ludiorouelj
call- ?l, has ever since been the cause of
more bloodshed than any other kingdom ia Europe.
Thtiu ia fraud us well aa violence at the
bottom of the Pope's title; for when tbe Greek
Emperor, to whom tbe ex-arohate belonged beif

take buck the donation from the Pope, as he
Hail given it to Llui foi the salvation of his soul.
Thus the con tide ration held out was a fraudulent
reprteeuta'ioa, and on that ground the
Pope's title is null and void.
Several times there havo been two Popes
together waging war against each other, and for
seventy >eors, in the fourteenth century, the
teat of the Pope was removed from Rome to
Avignon, in France. What, then, became of his
title? N.-polcoa L disposed of the Pope's do
niinion in the saute maimer iu which it w.w

oul} right of Kings or Popes which baa any validity.
"bui," replies L>r. Leahy, "that monarch
died iu exile, in a distant little island, which
was the visible punishment of heaven on
Lis Eaciilego and usurpation " If to be in exile
' and to die there be a mark of Divine vengeanc ?>
what shall be said of St. John, who wrote the
apocalypse when an exde in the island of Palmos;
and of Hildebrand (Gregory VII.), the
most distinguished ami greatest of all the Popes,
who died in exile at Salerno, a city of Naples,
whither he wa\ driven by the German Emperor
lleury IV,, after a bloody struggle which lasted
for many years9
Louis Napoleon Is not the man to be scared by
absurd prognostications of his dying iu exile, or
such other bugbears which cannot frighten even
children in the present age. Alter the exile of
Napoleon I. the Pope's only title deed is the atrocious
treaty of Vienna. By numerous event*
during the last thirty years that treaty has been
nullified, and by the present war it is torn to
atomB. By the revolution iu 1848 the Pope Ion
his crown for eighteen months. For its partial
restoration he is indebted to the cannon, and
baxnneta of the nreaerit Fmnsmr nf the KV,%n,.t.
holding It from him ever since only on sufferaice
and as bis vassal. Let Napoleon III. only withdraw
his troops from Rome, and what then bocomes
of the throne and title of the Pope ?
The Fourth of July?Rush of Gothamites
out of, and of rustics into, the clty.?ever j
Fourth of July presents a strange metamorphosis
in the personnel of our population. Citizens, with
their wives and families, avail themselves of the
national holiday to get out of the noise, and
beat, and uproar of New York, and into the
comparatively quiet and cool retreats which the
country ailorda; while, as a sort of compensating
movement, the country people bring their wives
and daughters, who are tired of green meadows,
and quiet brooks, and ebady groves, into the
metropolis, to see the public buildings, and
c-burches, and Fifth avenue palaces, and to witnces
the grand fircworksdisplays which our very
liberal Common Council provides for them at the
public expense. Of course, when the " Glorious
Fourth " happens to be within a day of Sunday,
and thus two holidays come after each other, as
is the case this year, the exodus of our citizens
and the ingress of our country cousins become
proportionately greater.
We learn that the rush out of town yesterday
was unprecedcntedly large, and almost beyond
the power of the railroad companies
and steamboat proprietors to accommodateOn
the Harlem Railroad the pressure
was kept up all day, crowds of people
who could not get on board one train waiting
patiently at the depot for the next or a subsequent
train to start. And so it was with the
other railroads having their terminus in New
Yoik, and with the steamboats plying up the
Sound and the Hudson and down the bay. All
went out filled to their utmost capacity, while
the return trains almoet made up the deficit by
draughts from the rural districts.
The Brooklyn Yacht Club went out in full
fleet, bound down the bay for a three days'
cruise. In fact, there was a great perturbation

Hauling Off from tub Lek Suore.?The re- 1
publican Legislatures of New York, Masaachu- '
setts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Con- 1
uecticut, since December lust, upon the " sober e
second thought," have each and all concluded to J
recognise the validity of the Fugitive Slave t
law in setting aside various experiments of nul
llfication. Iu all these movements the republican
managers bavc admitted and surrendered to
the conservative scntttneni of the maws of the j
people of tb" North. The extreme abolition ^
programme of the Rochester manifesto is the ^
rocky lee shore from which the republican party t
have thus been crawling off. They want sea ^
room, and they have been tacking to the wind- ^
ward. Thus, in Ohio, the Supreme Court or' the 1(
8?ate, under the control of a republlcau ma- ^
joritj. has lately affirmed the binding obligations
and the pains and penalties of the Fugitive .-'lave
law. Upon this point the editor of the JVuiiuiial n
AnU-Slaven/ Standard, of this city, gives the fol- ii
lowing explanation, fromja private letter of " au \
influential member of the republican party" of d
Ohio, to wit" Do you know that politics P
caused the recent decision in Ohio? Fear of b
injuring Chase's Presidential prospects (lid the d
devilish job." All these things, and especially t!
this " devilish job" ia Ohio, wear an ugly com- hi
plexion for Master Seward. He is evidently hi
tbc Jonah who will have to be thrown overboard tl
to save the sblp. d

stringent measures are absolutely necessary far

" railway accidents."
How Prisoners Are Senvnced in tub
General Sessions.?As will have been wen by
our report of the proceedings of the G~ntral
Sessions, the June term of the Court a as bmaght
to a close by the sentencing of prisoners who
had been convioted of various offences during
the present month, the majority ot' whose o??es,
hau'cvop inifsli f ltatro l?aan ? d- ' " '
.vnvTvt, U1BU> uaiv. ui;cu 11UUMJT U'JJCUICU', a 'AI
the time of their conviction. We took pie isurs
a few days since in noticing the fact that District
Attorney Walerbury and Judge lluai'.il
were making strenuous exertions to secure toe
prompt administration of justice to parties accused
of crime, and as we are anxious that every
obstacle to tbe accomplishment of that u>;?iruble
result should be speedily removed, we would
call attention to the mode in which criminals are
disposed of by the co-ordinate branch of this
Court, namely, the practice of remanding prisonera
for sentence till the last Saturday of the
term, instead of sentencing them on the sput,
where no good reason exists for suspending the
immediate inlliction of the punishment due to
the offences of which they were prououoced
guilty by a jary. This has grown to be a great
nuisance, and should be remedied without delay.
It is true that in the days of Recorder Riki-r all
the prisoners convicted daring the term were
sentenced together; bat the rapid iacrc.i^c of
population, and consequently the great increase
of crime, render it neceaeury to administer the
law with promptness and energy. Tiie evil of
which we speak is so great that prisoners have a
better chance of escaping from the custody of
the officers than they would have if such a la^go
number were not unnecessarily devalued in the
Tombs before conveying them to their flual destination;
and, what is still of more consequence,
justice would be administered more iniulligeutly
perhaps than it is at present. There were over
forty prisoners brought up for sentence iu the
Sessions on Saturday, a large majority of whom
ought to have been sentenced when convicted;
for it is obvious that a presiding Judge can impose
a sentence much more uadersUodir.giy
when all the facts and circumstances attending
the case are fresh in his memory than amid the
bustle and excitement of a crowded court room.
The Pennsylvania Democracy.?We have before
us a copy of the address of the State Committee
of the Pennsylvania regular democracy,
issued the other day from Harrisburg. It is
signed by Robert Tyler (son of ex-President
John Tyler) 08 chairman, and the document
bears throughout the evidences of a constitutional
political pleader of th? Old Virginia
ichooL On the great subject of squatter soveeignty
the committee contend substantially that
ihould tho necessity arise it will become the duty
>f Congress to Interpose against the "unfriendly
egielation" of the local authorities of a Terriory
on the subject of slavery so that the rights
if slaveholders may be duly protected. Titus,
chile the regular democracy of Pennsylvania
tccupy the platform of Governor Wise, the
lickman-Forney boiters stick to the platform of '
ir. Douglas. And thus we suppose t.hey will go
nto their October election. Aud thus. ri?ht a>td
eft, the democracy, upon their negro abstrav
ions, are torn to pieces. Who could have
[reamed of svoh terrible disasters from that
popular sovereignty" experiment of Messrs.
iouglas and Pierce, the Kansas Nebraska bill.
The Prussian Loan.?The successful exporileuts
made by Louis Napoleon in financiering
iduccd, as we recently stated, tho Prussian gotrnnicnt
to follow his exuuiplo. Fiodiug money
iflicult to raise In England, they appealed to the
'russian people for uid, and the response has
een such as to confirm tho value of tue prececut
established by the French Emperor. By
10 last advices from Berlin we learn that the
ibscriptions to the loan of 30,000,000 thnlers
mounts to 31,875,100. The surplus of 1,875,100
lus subscribed for will be deducted from the
LfT.rnt allotments to be made. In thia result.
