Popular Fanaticism.
The baleful influences of the proscriptive
political fanaticism of the day, liegin to ex
hibit themselves in a manner not to be dis
puted or evaded. Met here with a spirit
of proscription which puts to blush the in
tolerance of any civilized European people ;
thousands of sturdy, well-disposed men of
foreign birth, who came to our country to
better their fortunes, and to escape the
hardships of the old-world living, arc re
turning to the rule of governments which,
nominally despotic, cherish no such illilteral
spirit as has grown into rankness in a
country professedly liberal und democratic
beyond all others. These returning immi
grants are not slow to correct the erroneous
impressions which half a century of Demo
cratic legislation und generous public feeling
had infused throughout the masses of all Eu
rope, and the effects are shown unmistakably
in the records of immigration at the principal
seaports during the present year. A com
parison between the arrivals at New York
thus far this year aud for corresponding
months last year show a great decrease, to
wit:—
Passengers arrived in New York up to June
2d, 1864 114,467
Passengers arrived in New York up to June
2d, 1856 52,218
Palling oil in 1855, five months 62,249
This falling off in the month of May this
year is very great, and indicates that emi
gration from Europe will soon nearly, if not
entirely, subside.
Arrived in the month of May, 1854 67,874
« “ “ “ 1855 26,094
Less in May, 1855 41,780
This change, remarks a contemporary,
can only be accounted for from the spirit of
intolerance that has sprung up within the
past year in this country towards our foreign
population. A party hits organized whose
declared object is to disfranchise men on ac
count of their birth and religion. This
withdraws to some extent the hand of wel
come that has heretofore beckoned the
oppressed of all lands to our country, and
repulses the emigrant who desires to adopt
the Republic of America as his home and
an asylum from the oppressions that have
alienated him from fatherland. lie hears
that the people of America are prescribing
the adopted citizen on account of his foreign
birth aud religious sentiment, and concludes
•• Tis better to sutler the ills we have,
Thau tty to those we know not of.”
Immigration has not been without its
objectional features, but taken as a whole
it has proved a busting blessing to our com
mon country. It has added to our wealth
—it has peopled our waste lands—it has
brought to us industrious men and women,
who seek employment and jierforiu labor
that the born Yankee scorns to lay his
hands to—it Ims dug our canals—built our
railroads—erected our edifices and houses
—and with its iron sinews borne tin burth
ens of labor in this country. Yet, our
people, with all these benefits staring them
in the face, conspire to oppress and crush
the very men, who have come among us to
help make our country great and prosper
ous. It is for this that the emigrant turns
back with a heavy heart, and the oppres
sions of Europe, rather than cross the wide
ocean to face the oppressions of America.
Theatre. —Another agreeable entertain
ment was given our citizens at Empire Hall,

Death by Lightning.
During the storm of last Friday night,
a most shocking occurrence took place six
miles east o( Rod Wing, at the house of a
widow lady by the name of Wright. The
family consisted of some seven or eight per
sons, part of whom slept in the second sto
ry, and part on the ground floor. The light
ning struck the house, killing two members
of the family,, and what was most singular,
it proved fatal to one that was sleeping in
the upper story and one on the lower floor,
and these persons had each a companion in
bed with them at the time, both of whom
were unharmed. The oldest daughter, a
young lady, and a boy some seven or eight
years of age, were killed. The family were
strangers, having but lately arrived in the
Territory. Our informant says that this
dreadful blow excited for the remaining
members of the family the greatest sympa
thy in the village, as soon as the fac s be
came known.

Feeling oil the Hattie Field.
The Crimea correspondent of the Xew-
York Sun, writing from Balaklava, gives,
from the experience of a wounded French
man, an opinion with regard to that which
is felt by the soldier in time of conflict,which
is something as follows :
Before the battle begins, it is usual to feel
no little tremor, and many cheeks which are
known to be in communication with stout
hearts, blanch visibly. As the conflict becomes
imminent, courage returns, and with the first
(low of blood an enthusiasm is raised, which
constantly increases, and very seldom liag9 in
the least until the last shot is tired. The ef
fect of seeing a comrade shot down is generally
to excite an unappeasable 4hirst for veugeance
against the foe, though in the end one gets
“used to it.” When wounded less than mor
tally, it is not usual for the soldier to be im
mediately aware of the fact, unless some bones
are broken. A sabre may be run through any
fleshy part of the body, and even a bullet lodge
in dangerous proximity to the vitals, and he
for sometime be totally unconscious of even a
scratch. When life is taken by a single blow
the effect is varied with the nature of the
wound as well as w ith the temperament of the
man. Sometimes the poor fellow will leap
high in the air, giving a piercing scream, and
again he will lie down quietly. Oftencr, how
ever, lie simply falls dead without a struggle.
In most cases the features of the killed re
mained unchanged for a long time after death
—eyes open and brilliant, and perhaps a smile
illuminating the lace. To see such an one it
is difficult indeed to realize ti e presence of the
grim monster, Death.

The Post Office Department having had its
attention called to the fact that vessels are
proposing to carry letters across the ocean at
postage rates less than those established by
law, it may be of interest to coi respondents to
learn that the subject is under the investiga

ment. The principle with regard to the for
mer land mail private expresses in this coun
try, will probably l>e made to apply to inde
pendent private ocean mail carriers,and letters
thus scut may be detained. And it may be
also stated the reduction proposed, seems to be
less than it re-ally is, in consideration of anoth
er charge on the other side more than that
charged by our laws.

A curious story has been circulated within
a narrow circle. We give it for what it is
worth. The rnmor is that during the late ses
sion of Congress, Messrs. Prentice, of the Lou
isville Journal, llagner, Flourney and other
gentlemen of the southwest in this city, were
in secret conclave and the result of their con
ference was a promise of nearly all the whig
Congressmen of slave States, to cast their lot
with the K. N's. Messrs. Stephens, Toombs,
Kerr and a few others declined, and are now
fighting that order, while the others, at least
some of them, are engaged fighting on the
other side. It is further said that John Bell,
of Tennessee, is spoken of iu connexion with
Houston of Texas, for the Presidency. Ile
had voted against the Nebraska bill, and it is
thought this would render him acceptable to
the North, while being a Southern man, he
would not be damaged in that section of tho
country.
Whether the story is true or not concurrent
events, omitting the subject of the Presidency,
seom to confirm the rumor.
