COLUMBUS: Friday Morning, June 13, 1 KUO, LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION. • • Attempted Hobbery. Avery daring attompt was made, uu Wed nesday night, to rob a couple ol iron safes in the store of Messrs. L. 11. Duck & Cos., by blowing them open with gunpowder. The en trance was effected by prizing open the iron shutters at the back of the store; and from the altered position of the safes, which were very heavy, it is supposed that there were several persons in the party. The experi ments seem to have commenced with the larger safe. It was turned over, lock side up, the powder inserted, and the door forced open some two or three inches. Chisels Were then applied, hut without success. The robbers then took down the smaller safe from its stand, and this time were more successful, it being literally blown to pieces: the ceiling was also broken overhead, either by the con cussion or the Hying fragments. The money in it, however, gold to a Considerable amount, was left untouched; but the papers it contain ed were just beginning to take fire, when the police arrived and stayed proceedings. It is supposed that the robbers retired to await the effect of the report upon the town ; and aft it turned out, that effect was fatal to their en terprise. The noise of the report is repre sented as not having been very loud. The demolished safe was an old one, and had been in possesaion of Messrs. 1). & (Jo. about twen ty years. • r ♦ • “ Montgomery Slow Coaches. Each of the papers published in the city of Montgomery, have many subscribers at this office, No paper comos here from any place, bo irregularly as these. The Columbus Sun invariably beats them to this office. — Wctymp ku Spectator. Certainly, we do have the wonderfullest luck in getting about the country! We are fre quently tickled by paragraphs like the above; and have inquired particularly of the Sun how he manages. “ Well,” Hays he, “you know I’m a little fellow and the Postmasters are good to me. I never blow ’em up ns long as they treat mo well. Another thing, 1 rise early. I broakfast in Montgomery, and get to Wetumpka to/linner. Often whilo lam at breakfast, I can hear the Montgomery papers snoring it off, when they ought to be looking for an inside seat in a safe bag Lastly, 1 al ways take through tickets when I start any where.” Wo understand it now—it’s quite plain. Mr. Buchanan’s Bachelorhood. In view of the fact that Old Puck, if elected, will be the first Bachelor President we have ever hail, wo seriously advised him the other day, not to be singular, but at once undertake to get kimself a rib, suggesting to him a pret ty girl. Our Bachelor brother of the Enquirer, demurs, and hints fondly of an old maid or a rich widow. Be it so. He knows better than we, the tastes and predilections of the ancient and honorable fraternity to which he belongs, and wo do not undertake to dictate. We must also apologise for our presumption ; but being as yet a long ways from the shady side of thir ty, wo, in the natural ardor of youth, sugges ted a pretty girl, our own wishes being lather to the thought. We hope our venerable friend will excuse us. In this connection the Alabama Journal says, the ladies will give Old Buck “Jessie” for his neglect of past opportunities. Will they? Then wo congratulate him. Wo never knew a Jessie in our life but she was the most— pshaw! a confounded fly has dropped in the ink aud we must get some fresh for continua tion of the delightful subject. We may add here however, that the distressing application alluded to by the Journal, should bo spelt, ** Jesse.” The President’s Speech. President Pieroe’s late speech endorsing the Cincinnati nominees, aud delivered from the window of the White House, is having very general circulation. It is a magnanimous speech, aud has greatly elevated its author in our esteem, as a man. The President at his window, the crowd beneath—the one speaking in eulogy of one who may be his successor— the other listening patiently to their Chief Ma gistrate, presented a spectacle upon which tho eye may dwell with patriotic pleasure and pride. Where else than in our own beloved land will you find one to match it ? The whole world cannot afford an example so eloquent of true greatness, and of good government. Its simplicity makes it sublime! ♦ The air, from all quarters, conies to us la den with the fumes of gunpowder burned upon the altars of Buck and Brock. A great deal has also been done in the way of flag-Hying and illumination. Liberty poles sport their gau diest ribands, and windows run gutters of tal low and sperm, throughout the land. The work of ratification is going on briskly, and Buck aud Breck need not fear to break ns soon as they like. They have so many en dorsers. We regret to learn of the death, at Worces ter, Mass., of Mr. L- McCleary, by- the prema ture explosion of a cannon while firing a sa lute. A lad named George Williams was se verely wounded in the arm, foot and face; and a Mr. Bartlett had his thumb badly torn. - # ♦ Tho Prince of Prussia has arrived in Eng land, on a courting expedition to the Princes Royal. The Prince is described as an exceed ing fine-looking young gent, of twenty ; very dignified and graceful; five feet nine inches high (wonder if they measured him); and with a slight auburn colored moustauche. The Morning Post thinks there are no reasons po litically, why the Prince should not marry tho Princess Royal ; hut docs not add—if she will have him. A writer in the Charleston Standard, sug gests the name of Preston S. Brooks, for next Governor of South Carolina. The American party of Florida have nomi nated D. S. Walker, for Governor, and James M. Baker, for Congress. Bridge or No Bridge P Upon this question our citizens will be call ed to vote to-morrow, and as it is a subject of very great importance, be the result what it may, we propose to-day, a Candid and thor ough examination of its merits. Pecuii.ttrriv speaking we have not the slightest interest in the matter ; and us to personal convenience, almost none. Bui it is our duty ntfjmbl'c’ journalists to ascertain whether or not the pro posed measure’bo conducive to the interest of ’ a mnjorlty of our citizens, and to govern our selves iiceordingly. The circumstances of the case arc very pecu liar. We remember no similarones. Certain parties procured from the last General Assem bly the right to erect a bridge across our river at some point above the present crossing, and— not collect toll, hut present it to the city, she having the benefit of nil the profits,—in short becoming absolute owner. From what we can learn, the question has teen made one of “uptown” vs. “downtown,” but not legiti mately so, as it seems to us. The question is, shall the city of Columbus, not uptown or downtown, accept a free gratis gift of a val uable public improvement, which will add to the convenience of her people, increase the fa cilities of access to her market, swell the re ceipts of hor treasury, aud thus lighten the burden of taxation to uptown, and downtown as well? No matter what may be the motives of the donors. They are willing to make the gift. Is Columbus willing to accept it? This is the true question before tho voters to-rnor roW ; and be it remembered there is no taxa tion in the matter. Tho city has not orlce to put her hand in her pocket. It is a free gift. Will she take it ? Uptown says Yes; Downtown, or a portion of it, No. Our last named citizens are appre hensive of a depreciation qf their property. — For ourselves we do not anticipate it; We be lieve that it will be found in the end, that both bridges will bo profitable in the way of toll, and not more than sufficient to accommodate the travel and trade that will pass over them. It is our opinion that the bridge will hurt no body and benefit everybody. But let us look at the question of right. If uptown interests demand a bridge, and it can be obtained without taxing down town to pay for it, have they nota right tp the convenience. Granting for argument’s sake, that down town property would be depreciated somewhat, (though we do not believe it) is that a reason why up town should forever be debarred from increasing the value of Ait property? What is this but a consummation of the very object which down town so strenuously objects to ? and that too in a very different and far more objectionable manner ? If anew Grocery Mer chant with strong friends the country round, were to establish himself in our city to-mor row, lie would do so at a cost to every other similar merchant in the city. Every dollar’s worth that he sold would be that much out of their pockets. Must new men therefore be forbidden the town? Every new improvement --►every addition to a town, be it bridge or merchant, is made at some cost to somebody. Things are so constituted, and we cannot alter them. But we may, and should, take care lest the loss to one party far outbalance tho gain to the other; and that the improvement be made without infringement of right and jus tice. These rules we believe may be complied with in this instance. If down town be a loser at all, it is our opinion that it will only be temporary aud insignificant; and we farther believe that she will eventually find herself benefitted in the way of diminished taxes, and a greatly increased general business, in whose profits the whole city will participate. Thus far we have spoken of public interests generally. But there is a specific interest, itself conducive to tho public interest, which wo should foster and encourage by every le gitimate means. Wo allude to the largo Factory interest of our city. Also, though many may not have thought of it, there are some consid erations of humanity involvod in this question —we allude to Factory Operatives. It is noto rious that the former is shacklod, and the lat ter deprived of comfort, and often health, for want of more roomy houses. At present the evil is without remedy. The Operatives can not bo better provided for on this side of the river, for want of ground on which to build. Dwellings on tho other side are precluded at present by the great distance from the Facto ries Which would have to be overcome. An up town crossing would remedy the evil—give to Operatives healthy and comfortable dwellings, and enable the factory proprietors to enlarge their scale of operations. Among smaller objections to the bridge, wo have hoard it said that it will diminish the re ceipts of the present bridge, and also occasion the expense of an additional toll-keeper. As to the former, wo presume it makes little dif ference which hand the city pockets her tolls with: a thousand lost below, is a thousand gained above. As to the latter, it would boa strauge reason indeed for refusing $50,000, for instance, that it would cost SSOO to buy a safe to keep it in. Another point occurs to us, and we are done with the argument, aud will take up the appeal. It is worthy of remembrance, that there are no vested rights whose preservation can embarrass this question. It is very true that tho charter of the present bridge forbade tho building of a second one within three miles up or down. But why ? To prevent tho city from ever building a second one, in case of need? By no means. It was simply to pro tect her against private competition. The same authority which enacted that prohibition for the city’s welfare, has repealed it for the same reason; audjobviated all difficulty by giv ing her permission to accept a bridge at tho hands of the projectors. Let it also be re membered that the present bridge was located where it is for the express accommodation of “ down-town. The original charter provided that it should cuter the city at the end of what is now Franklin street; but the bulk of the pop ulation having settled below, the location was changed. Had the charter been complied with, it is quite possible that down-town would now be the applicant for a crossing; and if so, what would she think if her sister were to de ny her. Knowing as we well.do, that giueroeity mot justice are not things of latitude anil longitude —that they may ilourish as exuberantly down town as up,, we call upon our friends in the former ection to come tip to the polls to-mor row, not only acquiescing in the new move, but prepared to do the handsome thing, ur.d show their magnanimity. Columbus is not done growing yet —far from it. There will be bu siness ill plenty for up afid down-town to do. It does not follow either, that because a pur chaser comes to town over the up-town crossing, be cannot find his way down. It is not location that insures custom. So conduct your busi ness, friends of down-town, with energy, promptness, and faithfulness, as to have your selves sought out wherever you may be. That is tin* secret after all, of doing a good busi ness. bet us appeal to you, in conclusion, to ponder well the question at issue, and strive to approach tho polls not alone with an intelli gent vote in your hands, but with that noble sentiment in your hearts which inspired that gencrolu- utterance, “Live and let Live.” Financial Bank Broke! A young son of Ethiopia, fresh from the scene of the late attempted robbery, passed our office yesterday, and pausing before thh door, yelled across the street in a very excited man ner : “Jim, been ’round to see the busted bank? There’s a bank busted round there!—broke all to smash!” Wc hope the announcement will not create a panic. ITEMS. An exchange says a Mormon preacher has made his appearance in Surry county, North Carolina. While tho Canada lay off George’s Island in a fog, on her way out, the inhabitants of Hali fax presented a complimentary address to Mr. Crauipton, late British Minister at Washing ton. The American party of Louisville have pre sented George D. Prentice with a service of silver consisting of a pitcher, six goblets, and a salver. The Boston Advertiser says the New Eng land Emigrant Aid Company have resolved to rebuild the hotel at Lawrence, Kansas. God made both tears and laughter, and both for kind purposes; for as laughter enables mirth and surprise to breathe freely, so tears prevent sorrow from becoming despair and madness ; and laughter is oneof tho very priv ileges of reaspn, being confined to the human species. The Chicago Democrat of Friday last says: Between dot),000 and 400,000 bushels of corn have been sold “on change” in this city within a few days. Godard, the aeronaut, has returned to New York from Havana. He proposes “togo up on horseback” on the 4th of July. The New York Tribune declares itself in fa vor of Col.

The editors of the five daily papers in Chica go, 111., have organized a committee to take measures for the immediate re-establishment of the Kansas Herald of Freedom. Minnesota territory, which is growing with wonderful rapidity, has now a population of 120,000, more than sufficient to entitle it to be admitted as a State of the Union. No applica tion, however, has yet been made for admis sion. Tho Legislature of Massachusetts is about to appropriate money for a statue of Faith, to surmount the national monument at Plymouth. An old maid down east, says they make no good looking glasses nowadays. During the last four months the sum of $16,000,000 in gold and silver has been ship ped from England to the East. The President of the United States receives an annual salary of $25,000 per year. The salary of England’s Queen is two hundred times as large ns that paid to tho President. Such is the contrast between monarchy and republi can. Ladies wear corsets, it is said, from instinct —a natural love of being squeezed. The pack of hounds of Mr. Richard Sutton were sold a few weeks since, under the ham mer, at Quorn Kennels, Leicestershire, Eng land. This hunting pack, consisting of tliirty idno dogs, from one to five years old, sold for $7,i)00. The puppies, 50 in number, were put up in lots of five each, and brought alto gether $2,300. Why are the ladles of the present day like the lilies of the Scripture ? Because “They toil not, neither do they spin ; yet Solomon in all his glory, etc.” A Vermont Republican Statu Convention presided over by Hon.

Philadel phia Republican Convention last week, and passed resolutions upon whut it is the fashion at the North to cull the “recent outrages at W ashington aud in Kansas.” A portion of a tree was recently found by some men at the depth of sixty-five feet, while they were digging a well in Competino Town ship, Wappello county, la. It seemed to have been about a foot in diameter.. . There has just been quarried, at the junc tion of the Danville and Southside Railroads, a block of granite nine feet thick, 15 feet wide and 60 leet long—containing 800 solid yards. It wiR probably he used for one of the bridges of tho Norfolk aud Petersburg Railroad. A large Sumner indignation meeting was held at Providence, 11. 1., on Friday night. Mr. Wayland, Professor Ceswell and Messrs. Gam el., Charles S.

Food is so scarce that beggars troni door to door are as common as In our At lantic cities. Brigham Young denounces the practice as likely to be an imposture, though lie says where any of the saints have gone five days without food they ought to make their wants known. Rather a hard task for a man to support ninety wives in aconutry where food is so scarce ! A great Kansas meeting was held at Wor cester, Mass., last Friday night, when a sub scription list was openodaud some $4,500 was collected on tho spot.

A great deal of money is being collected here and in the East and West lor Kansas. The collectors call for “aid for Kansas,” and carry round with them a bundle of Times and Tribunes, full of blood and murder stories about Kansas doings.
