For thU resolution, forty-thru DomooraU and only

lUdng this very exhibit aa an Index of Northern
sentiment, esn there he any doubt ai to which of tho
* two parties the Booth should bo united In her politl*
cal associations? Can any Georgian hesitate whether
to go trith JomreoN and thb Northern Democrats,
or with JxNxntB and the Northern Whigs ? For the
question between Johnson and Jhnkins 3 duces it
self to this: shall we sustain the party which voted
for Pierce, or that which was defeated with Scott ?
Jenkins is in favor of keeping up Ida connection with
tho Whig*—Johnson with tho Democrats of the
North. Ahd these are the only alternatives loft any
of us* For a sectional party, whether calling itself
Southern Bights or Union, can not be maintained in
Georgia, m is proved by the ft to of both these tempo,
rary organisations. Shall we, thon, by supporting
Johnson, be found in political association with
Northern Democrats, led by Fierce, Buchanan,
Cass and Douglass ; or by supporting Jenkins, be
come the partisans of Scott, Cobwin, Seward, and
Everett. Tbe.msJorlty of the voters of Georgia will
hardly hesitate to choose as allies Northern Demo
crats in preference to Northern Whigs.
Jlr. Jenkins.
Gentlemgn in other States are sorely puzzled to
find out someting about Mr. Jenkins, tho candidate
of tho Jenkins party for Governor. Not long since
we published the speculations of the New Bedford
Mercury, a Whig press, in relation to this “great
unknown.” Now we have a string of inquiries, most
of which we are unable to answer, propounded by
the Richmond .Examiner, tho editor of which grave
ly advances the opinion, that Jenkins is the man
that struck Billy Paterson 1 We give some ex
tracts from a remarkable editorial of bis on the sub
ject of Georgia politics:
The Whin of Georgia are entitled to the gratitude of tho
people of the Union, for haring, when the thermometer or
Fahrenheit wae 98 in the shade, hold a Convention, tho pro
ceedings of which contains so largo an amount of coo], pre
meditated assurance and Impudence, that they have almost
reduced the temperature of the printing offices into which
they have been put into type. Tho very perusal of them
rendered it necessary for us to put oa a great coat,and close
the windows of an attic apartment with a Southerly expo
sure. • * * * * * •
All the leading actors in this transaction wero Whigs,
and their Gubernatorial candidate is a whig to wham Fill
more offered the place of Secretary of the Interior of 1850.
We are authorised by the Presidential election of 1862, to
eay that there is no Union party In Georgia—-tho Democrat
ic partners having retired from the firm.
Yot the Whigs cling to the fragments of the wreck, and
nnblushingly put forth the resolutions that we have pub
lished above. For the purpose of defeating the regular
nominee of the Democratic party, Judge Johnson, they haw
adapted a Democratic platform qf principles. and placed a
Whig candidate upon it. It is ludicrous, whilst it is crimi
nal, to seosucta intolerant Whigs as Stephens and Toombs
deliberately, and by formal resolutions, denouncing tho dis
tribution of the proceeds of the public lands amoug tho
States, and a system of internal improvement by the Gen
eral Government. We have road of the ass disguising him-
self imperfectly in the skin of the lion, but this attempt is
tho richest illustration of it that we have ever known—
here we have tho long ears jof Federalism steiking out of
tho resolutions of the Baltimore Convention ; Stephens
preaching against Whig principles, with Toombs for his bot
tle holder. The humbug is so bald—the fraud so transpa
rent, that It can excite nothing but a contemptuous stnllo.
There Is one strange thing about this movement in Geor
gia. which induces us to believe that the triumph of tho
Whig party could not be attended with fat official pickings.
We near nothing of Crawford—Galphin Crawford as ho is
popularly known in the United States—the grlflHlnancier
of the Taylor Cabinet. Is he gorged with publ^filundcr,
that he does not issues forth and claim his share of tho an
ticipated loaves and fishes? or does he—lofty now that ho
is!—prefor the otivm cum dianitaU of former acquisitions,
to the uncertain and doubtful rewards of tho foraging party
reeoutly organized in his native State ? At the mention or
his name a fragrance of other (lays, perfumed with virtues
or the Taylor Cabinet, salutes us. Jenkins, that man of
mystery, obscurity, and secret power, leads tho baud, and
of the head of the Galpliina wo hear nothing. But who is
the mysterious Jenkins, the convenient cat's-paw or the
astute Stephens and the sepulchral Toombs? Is he a man,
or a mere political myth, engendered in tho swamps of
Georgia, in default of a genuine human being? Dims ho
really like on honest living man, move about on his feot
proper, or glide like the ever-returning ignus /alum, over
the political sloughs, and briar patches, and quicksands of
Georgia? Had ha father nr mother—In he old or young,
dark or fair, toll or stout, gray, blue, black, yellow, tvhilo
or green, are questions often asked about Jenkins, but nover
satisfactorily answered. Doos ho liro in a wigwam, in a
hollow tree, In a log hut. and subsist on cotton seed, eat
fish and beans, or is he a princely planter, rejoicing in thou
sands of brood acres and innumerable negroes ?
Of all the people who annually travel nlong the many
railroads that travorse the State of Georgia, nearly all have
heard of Jenkins, but none have over seen him. Yet la
times of political excitement, when the cauldron boils vio
lently. Jenkins turns up with unerring certainty. Thus
when Fillmore wanted a Secretary of the Interior, and could
not catch one, he offored the place to all tho great uinr. of
Ills party, and they would not touch It; at last it was offer
ed to Jenkins—'but Jenkins, dreading the light of day-
fearing that somebody might find out who he was if ho
went to Washington—declined taking it; ami we all know
that the President, becoming gloomy and misanthropical,
was forced, after hawking the place about for many weeks,
to give it to Sandy Stuart, of the hamlet of Staunton, who
liad the same qualifications fur the post that ho has for
acting as interpreter to Billy Bowlegs.
We have a melancholy suspicion that Jenkins is the per
son who many years ago perpetrated a villainous assault
upon tho person of William Patterson. Our readers will
remember tho circumstances of the case. Bill Patterson
was struck by an unknown porson. and although tho strict
est search was instituted, theoffender lias never been discov
ered. The lamented Bison (John M. Botts)—whose name is
rarely mentioned since his last demise, when his nintli life
was beaten out of him, was by many suspected of having
committed the assault. But we now believe that Jenkins
is the man who struck Billy Patterson, and then fled to
Georgia, where he has sinco skulked about the swamps of
that 8tate. For if he is not the man who struck Patter
son, we ask who is lie ? Why does not Jenkins show him
self? Why does not some one write his life, or send forth
his portrait to an admiring world ? Why decs not Barnum
avail himself of tho national curiosity about Jenkins, and
exhibit him with the Benrdcd Lady, whoso whiskers and
other capillary enormitlos are now attracting so much at
tention?

The Crystal Palace Festivities, Ac,
Tho Now York papers of tho lGth contain full ac
counts of the concluding details of tho ceremonies, in
cidents, Ac., consequent upon the formal opening of
the Crystal Palaco on the 14th and lfitb. All things
considered It was an occasion that will leave its im
press upon the progress of events. Wo have already
given' much spaco to tho doings of tho 14th. On the
morning of tho 15th, by invitation of the Chamber of
Commerce and the Board of Underwriters, the Presi
dent and Suit were shown tho bay and harbor. The
steamer Josephine was employed for the purpose.—
Many distinguished gentlemen connected with the
businessandcommercialinterestsofthe city accom-
panlcdthe President, the boat leaving her wharf at
10 o’clock. At 12 o’olock a collation was served on
board, presided over by Mr. Perit, Presidont of the
Chamber of Commerce, after which several appropri
ate sentiments were offered followed by happy res*
ponses from tho President, Gon. Wool, Hon. Jeffer
son Davis, Attorney General Cushing and Secreta
ry Guthrie. The boat returned between one and
two P. H., when tbe President returned to his quar
ters Atthe Astor House, whero ho was waited upon
by a deputation from the Governors of tho Alms
Honse with a cordial invitation to inspect the several
institutions bolonging to the city Bituatcd upon Ran
dall’# Island, bnt which be felt obliged to decline. A
public reception of citizens generally followed, and
the bafonce of the day passed most agreeably to all.
In the evening the President attended tho Crystal
Palace banquet, and visited Castle Garden to listen to
Madame Sontaq. Injtbe course of Thursday, after
the ceremony of opening tho Crystal Palaco had been
completed, he called upon tha Countess of Ellesmere,
who U staying with her family at the Clarendon Ho
tel,a politeness which he doomed It his duty to per
form, oa aoconnt of the sickness of the Earl, who was
unablf to attend at the Inauguration of the Crystal
Palace, It was partly out of respect to the Earl of
Ellesmere, as Royal Commissioner, as we understood
the^President to say at bis levee yesterday, says the
Herald, that be was Induced to leave Washington for
the purpose of attending the Crystal Palace inaugura
tion, that there might bo no appearance of neglect on
bis part. He also spokoinvory high terms of Sir
Charles Lyell, the celebrated geologist, who is one
of the British Commissioners.
The banquet given in the evening at the Metropoli
tan, by the Crystal Palace Association, is spoken of
Jutamol the highest praise. Beats were provided
for six bandied guests, And were folly occupied. The
table at which the : President was seated, and the
other-digmitarie^ wbo wero present, atood epon a

who, if bis reputation depended moroly upon tho cul
tivation of science, would occupy a proud eminence
amoug its doYotcea. Bnt his feme rests upon a
broador and ampler basis—upou this: that lie has
himself contributed largely to tho amount or useful
human knowledge. [Applauso.1 Aa an illustration
of what this exhibition was likely to do, I was very
much Impressed by what Sir Oharlea Lyoll himself
told me, that an eminent inventor-and machinist dis
covered, upon visiting the workshops or Lowell, that
while thoy accomplished in the working of iron in
ono hoar what it takes us live to perform, yot in thu
cutting of wood the advantage is just as groat in fa
vor of our machinery. [ Applause. 1 A striking fact,
when it is remembered that tho united States and
England are now, with tho wonderful application of
steam, only nine or ten days apart. [ Applause.]-
Whilo wo return our groatful acknowledgments to all
tho governments and nations here represented, do not
all hearts unite with mo in thoexpiefisionoftlio hope
that tho only rivalry which may ever spring up La-
tween them and us shall bo tho rivalry of earnest,
determined, steady offort to promote the elevation of
the raco, and peace uud good neighborhood
nations and men ?
After the long continued applause which followed,
the company gave throe cheers for the President,
who immediately afterwards retired, in company with
Goneral Wool and Secretary Webster, to attend tho
Gpern at Castle Gordon.
In proposing the next regular toast, Mr. Sedwick
said:
We are not to forgot that tho Presidont is not hero
alone to-night. There are other gentlemen sitting
closo around him, assisting him in the ardous task he
has had to discharge, ond who have also done us the
honor to be present at our inauguration, and who ore
hero to-night. I shall give you—
Mr. Guthrie, Secretary of tho Treasury.
Tho Hon. James Guthrie responded. He said .
Fellow Citizens : Although I have been a public
speaker for nearly forty years I nover was abashed
till now. What can one from the banks of the Ohio,
a now State, offer hero to this assembly in commem
oration of the industry of all nations, in commenda
tion of tho arts or peace, in the toleration of religious
and political sentiments, tho extension of commerce,
the extension of agriculture, tho extension of manu
factures, tho extension of urts and sciences ? I have
nothing to say but to offer you the example of my
countrymen in the arts of agriculture. They have
felled forests, and raado cultivated fields, and added
State after State to this glorious Union, until wo now
number thirty-ouo States. [Applause.] They have
built city after city. Seventy years ago the city
whero we now are was about a mile and a half in
length and half a mile in breadth, with twenty-one
thousand inhabitants. Now it is more than five miles
long and two miles wide. Where were then wooden
houses of from one to two stories high are now prince
ly palaces of from four to six stories, aud with a pop
ulation of six hundred thousand. And thus New
York has given us an example of the industry of all
tho nations of the earth. New York has done more
than that. Her commerce whitens every sea—draws
thu rioh productions of every land and of overy clime,
and makes this the great commercial emporium of
the United States. New York wus not satisfied with
this, but by her Erie canal, her Erie and other rail
roads, Bbc lias proceeded westward to the great lakes,
and added tho commerce of tho vast West to her
riches. And this is another evidence that New York
has given to tho industry of tho nations of the earth,
[Applause.] She has dono more—she now offers tho
Crystal Palaco for tho exhibition of tho works of our
urt and of our industry. She invites her sister States,
and nil tho nations of the earth, to come here and ex
hibit their industry aud their arts in order that sho
may draw benefit from them, and they, by compari
son, may draw benefit from her. New York is a
peaceful city, and lias won her position and her re-
nowu by tho nrts of peace. And while commerce
reigns New York must tbrlvo—New York must stand
—and her example extend, until other cities and oth
er States, fired by her example, shall, by like indus
try and like enterprise, win tho position and the re-
uown which sho has obtained. [Applause.] But
whero will New York bo when they are coming up
to her? Cast your imaginations a hundred years
hence. Tho enterprise, the industry, and the integ
rity, which have governed and ruled her merchants,
will givo her two millions of inhabitants, and a degree
of strength and power in tho industry of the nations
of tho earth which will still make her pre-emineut in
all tho West.
Hon. Jefferson Davis said—Gentlemen—I thank
you from the bottom of my heart for tho kind and
generous manner with which you have received the
last toast. It is true that I have marched below that
banner, and it ia also true that the warmest feelings
of my heart are with that ling. From boyhood to
manhood it was my fortune to Borvo beneath that
banner ; bnt I can now most heartily rejoico in those
manifestations which now surround mo, and which
indicate tho friendliness of nations. These bring to
gether tho men from evory civilized quarter of tho
globe, to contribute toward the advancement of
scienco and civilization, which will hold men togeth
er in one common brotherhood, mid lead them to
make tho earth what it is destined to be, the home of
man and his blessed estate.
Hon. Caleb Cushing, in responding to tho next
toast, said Gentlemen—In response to your call I
may be pardoned in submitting a reflection, a single
reflection, upon that which constitute the prominent
thought of an occasion like tho present. It is true
that peace has her victories no less renowned than
war. [Applause.] And we ourselves on yesterday
assembled to honor one of thaw triumphs of peace.—
[Applause.] Tho chief magistrate of this republic.a
man who—1 may bo pardonod for saying so in the
presence of so many of the representatives of mon
archical Europo—I say tlmt the man who is at tho
head of this government does not reign but governs.
He has tho actual as well as the titular power invest
ed in him by the free choico of tho people of the Uni
ted. States, and Isay that a man ho high placed would
not have left his official duties for an occasion like
this, to be present at a consecration, not of a temple
of Belona, but of an edifice raised to a divinty un
known to ancient mythology, viz : tho useful objects
of life. [Applause.] And it was not like tho cap-
tor leading In triumph conquered nations, with the
trophies of their dishonor at his back, that the Presi
dent of the United Stated honored this occasion, but
to show, at the head of that great procession of tho
representatives of the nation of tho earth, that they
were convened together in brotherhood and peace,
aud science, to do honor to the solemn spirit of im
mortality that is God-like in tho nature of man. [Ap
plause.] I have derived the siouercst pleasure from
witnessing this congress of nrts. science, and com
merce, and I believe that it should necessarily have
beon held in tho city of New York. [Applause.] I
will not further trespass upon your attention, but al
low my friends to address you. [Loud applause.]
In reply to the sixtli toast: *• The Foreign Com
missioners who have honored us this day with their
presence," Sir Charles Lyell wus introduced, and
responded ns follows:
1 have to return, as your President has called upou
me so to do, my thanks, in my own name and that of
my colleagues, for tho honor you have done us in
drinking our healths. After wbat tho President of
the United States and the Presidont of this Society
have kindly said of their regret for the absence of
the Earl of Ellesmere, it is almost unnecessary that I
should, although he commissioned mo to do so, apol
ogize to you for his unavoidable absence. Not only
in spite of indisposition did he press his journey from
Canada, in the nope of being present at tho ceremo
nies yesterday, but he requested me to say that ho
would have been here if he had not been confined to
his bed by illness. Ho also requested me to say how
gratified lie has bocn during his late tour through
this country with the kind welcome he has received,
and to use his own words, " the cordial yet unobtru-
bIvo hospitalities which ho has every where met
with." [Applause.] Gentlemen,, tho President of
the United States bus spoken of mo in such terms
that I say most sincerely, with every disposition to
bcliove him—for your first magistrate, like our own,
can do no wrong—that he lias not measured carefully
enough the terms of his eulogy. I receive gratefully
there expressions, as iutended at least to convey ids
kind feelings towards me for the Httlo part which I
have played, whether in science or in making your
country better known, its I think it deserves to bo, to
my countrymen. [Applause.] Your President bos
also alluded to the observations of ono of my col
leagues, Mr. Whitworth, which he made after his ro-
turnfrom a visit to the Lowell factories, and I may
say that duriug their tour—and roy colleagues, have
said tho same thing to me—thoy were Rtruck with
tho wonderful labor-saving Inventions in the machine-
ry of this country, to which, far more thon its soil
or any other cause, they ascribed tho groat wealth
which has accumulated here. [Applause.] I trust
this commission will bo the means of making sooner
known somo of those inventions and machines which
it is moat desirable our countrymen should under
stand tho benefits of. This is tho fourth visit I have
made to your country, and it is only by observing the
wonderful progress which this peoplo aro making in
knowledge, power, and general prosperity, that wo
[can arrive at a true estimate of the greatness of tho
country. It is indeed a most cheering sight for any
foreigner to witness. I say a foreigner, but whenev
er I havo travelled in yonr country whether pursuing
science, or with others engaged in tho same pursuit, 1
or travelling as a stranger, I have never beon allowed
to feel myself a foreigner 5 and yet, stranger to say,
this is the first time 1 have visited the United States
without finding the press, and sometimes Congress,
engaged In the discussion of questions that seemed
to endanger the amicable relations between thin coun
try and my own. Blr Charles Lyoll hero alluded to
the McLeod difficulty In 1841, and t[io Oregon ques
tion in 1845, when he said tho walls of our city wore
placarded with “ fifty-four forty or fight." [Great
laughter.1 He then expressed the hope that nothing
more serious should occur to disturb the present
peaceful relations of the two countries. After allud
ing to the New. York Crystal Palace In appropriate
terms, be concluded as follows:—Tho Exhibition of
England In 1851 created a unity of all tho nations of
world, however different' tholr tendencies and
^ Lot us therefore, hopo that

to return my thanks toyou all for the kind aud worm
recaption you have given us to-night.
Tho seventh regular .toast: “The GQvernor of the
BUte of New York,’!‘was olotpiontly responded to by
Govomor Cobb, of our own State, In tho absonoo of
Govornor Seymour, of New York, who had been
obliged to retire from porsonai iudlspositlon. Gov,
Cobb spoke os follows 1
Gentlemen—I hollovo I stand alono at present, ns
representing in an oxooutlve capacity, tho sovereign
ty of any of the States of this union, at your enter
tainment this evening. This should uot bo so; but 1
feol that I am authorized to say that tho non-attend
ance of my coleagucs U uot from any want of interest
in tho occuslon which has called us together. If there
were any officials in this country.who ought to havo
been present at this time, I think they should havo
bceu or that class to which I have tho honor to bo-
long. Representing the sovereignty of tho States of
thiH Union, they should bo peculiarly interested In tho
results of this ond kindred exhibitions. We have
been told of tho stimulant which will bo given to in
dustry in alt its brandies throughout our country by
this exhibition 5 wo are well aware that every branch
of trade is advanced aud carried forward by It. More
over, our Union will be strengthened by this display:
ore difficulty which has existod between tho different
States will do silenced by such an exhibition. My
own judgment la, that whon we come to know each
other bettor wo diall esteem each other more highly.
Wlmt is better calculated to bring about that result
than tho collection of all the Interests which go to
mako up tho grand aggregate of American interests
and national greatuess? The mighty North, and
South, and East and West, have met, not for any su
premacy of power, nor for tho settlement of any ex-
asporatod feeling, but for a generous rivalry, to bcc
who can do inoBt to promote the arts and sciences of
our country and of tho world. Geutlomen, I havo
given you but one idea, and I might lmvo associated
it with others. But I atn reminded that time is pas
sing rapidly away, and that there are many hero
whom you and I are anxious to listen to upon this oc
casion. [Loud cries of go on, go on.] I am afraid
before I should proceed much further you might give
mo a different intimation. Tho cheers wero then pro
posed aud heartily giveu for Mr. Cobb, as ho resumed
his scat.
Among those who responded to other sentiments
wero Senator Chase, of Ohio; Count do Bartigks,
tho French Minister; tho venerable Dr. FnANCis 5
Mr. McMiohael, of Philadelphia; Chancellor Wal
worth; Ogden Hoffman 5 Judge Campbell ; Major
Sprague ; Con. Tallmaixje, and others. After a fi
nal speech from Mr. Sedgwick tho company sepa
rated.
On Saturday morning, at 10 o’clock, tho President,
accompanied by General Wool, Messrs. Guthrie,
Davis and Cushing, took his departure for Washing
ton. O11 tho arrival of tho boat at Jersey City, a
sulute of gun3 was fired from tho Battery, and also
from the British mail steamship Arabia. The Presi
dent and Buito were escorted to the railroad depot,
where a special train was in waltiug to convey them
to Philadelphia.
Thus has terminated an occasion unmarred by a
single incident calculated to detract from tho pleas
ant remembrances of the future—an occasion where
tho highest functionaries of a Democratic Govern
ment have freely mingled with their constituents in
more ilriniy establishing tho arts of peace, and in the
promotion of the menus of human happiness.
The First Day’s Exhibition.
The New York Times, of the 16th, describes the
exhibition at the Crystal Palace tho day previous, be
ing the first after the opening. It says:
If wo wero disposed to be imitative, wo should call
this tho Crystal Record, or the Crystal Diary, or the
Crystatepumething or Anything. For everything
within a mile of the nowly opened Industrial Palace
is crystal. There are Crystal Stables, and Crystal
Cake Shops, aud Crystal Croggcries, and Ice-cream
Saloons. Ono old woman lias set up a Crystal Fruit
Stall, at which oranges and bananas, in every Btago
of decomposition, may be purchased. We noticed a
dilapidated hovel on Sixth-avenue, which was called
by its proprietor the Crystal Hall of Pleasure. The
Crystalian prefix muy have been all very well, for the
thing was transparent enough ; bot how even the fee
blest pleasure could bo conjured up in such a temple,
we are entirely at a loss to determine.
Tho interior of tho Crystal Palaco looked handsome,
and more attractive than wo have yet seen it. Many
additions were made yesterday to tho different
departments. Exhibitors were busy, os usual. Here
a browmskinned Italian was polishing a table inlaid
with difierent colored woods, on which a variety of
battles were depicted, the most remarkable of which
was Waterloo, whero Napoleon in tho foreground,
mounted on a maple charger, and clothed in a ma
hogany coat with rosewood lapels, led an oak and
walnut army to the cliargo. There a sculptor or his
assistant, clad In blouse, was sand papering and put
ting tho last fond touches to some marble statue or
bas-relief. Men were rushing about in all directions
with porcelain jugs, pictures, bits of machinery, mod
els, musical instruments, and u thousand such objscts
in their hands, on their way to the section in which
their show-cases lay. But there was, with all this, no
crush or bustle in the building. Its fine proportions
were not disturbed by any unseemly crowding. Tho
vast naves were agreeably sprinkled with the gay
dresses of tho visitors, aud tho doino looked loftier,
lighter, and more terlal than ever.
In tho Holland section men were busy nnnackini
rich velvets aud other costly goods, some or wliici
whore already displayed on stands. Italy, with its
statuary aad paintings, presented a gayer sight. We
noticed oue remarkable work of art in this department
which has been just unpacked. It is a wild boar’s
head, cast in bronze, by Professor Colracnt Papi,
modelled from nature, and untouohed by chisel or
graver since the hour it was taken from the mould.—
It is full of spirit and truth; the wild bristles arc
matted on the Merced head, and the small eyes glean
as fiercely as they did when the savago owner died

Nearly opposite to the German States lay a work In
bronze or great merit, ltwas a <iying Heron, design
ed by P. Coinolera, and executed by lhiplan it Salles
of Paris, a firm remarkable for the beauty and artistic
excellence of its issues. The Heron lies prone, with
the fatal arrow buried deop in his ragged feathers
His long neck writhes convulsively in tho agonies of
death, and his logs are stiffening out with tho muscu
lar action so powerful in such moments.
There wero a great many tilings to amuse 11s as wo
wandered about. There was Homo caudle exhibitor,
who, not content with showing his long and short
"sixes," decorated his case with a stearine Greek
Slave. The idea of a captive in tel low, or spermacet-
ti, or even stearine! tho thing was too laughable. In
the galleries of tho nortli nave wo beheld one of the
most unfortunate gentlemen it was ever our lot to en
counter. He inhabited a gloss ense, belonging to some
one who exhibited trusses, artificial limbs and sus
penders. There was not a portion of this unhappy
gentleman’s body which did not apparently require
relief, lie lmd a patent left leg; his right was envel
oped in a bandage for the suppression of varicose votes.
His arms were in splints, patent also. His suspend-
era were of a complicated nature, something botween
stays and a straight waistcoat. Ho was a lamentable
instance of human infirmity, and although I10 was
mule of wax, we pitied him.
The Englhli Department was looking gloomy.—
Hardly any of the goods had been unpacked except

If, when tho doors of the Palace are closed for the
night, Rome of tho most convivlally disposed statues
stopped from their pedestals and lmd a quiet game of
eucre. There appears to he some good paintings in
the English section, but they ureas yet so huddled
together that It is impossible to obtain a favorable
view. There was ono funny picture in tho lot. It
was a water-color cony of Corregio’s charming pic
ture of “Cupid Reading,” in tho Loudon National
Gallery. This copy was bysome modest young lady,
who signs herself Miss M. The picture looks like a
cheap cotton pocket handkerchief which has been ex
posed to the elements, and whose colors have run.
Farther on, and apparently belonging to no par
ticular section, there is a picture of a young Calabri
an woman playingon tho tambourine, by ono Leopold
Poliak. There is a very good elfect of light and
shade, and the girl's Bkin is deliciously brown and
sunny. The rod tint in her hair is admirably man
aged.
On the whole, this, the first public day of the Ex
hibition has been eminently pleasing, and gives us an
agreeable foretaste of what we may expect as things
progress. A large number of foreign packages wero
received to-day. Ono hundred and filly entered the
Foreign Department, mostly German consignments,
and a very considerable number wero handed into the
American rccoiving office. Fifty largo cases, filled
with goods from Europo, were passed through the
Custom House to-day, so that wo may expect soon to
see the blank spots in tho building glowing with in
dustrial decorations.
The number of tickets sold during tho day was
3,350. The amount of cash received at the doors wuh
$1,630 60. The number of persons admitted during
the day was 7,000. The colfortion for the Washing
ton Monument amounted to $41 02.
Tho Exhibition is now un fail acromidi, and wo
venture to predict that it will riso high in publio es

recreation.

Horrible Suicide.
Immediately alter the sounding of the whistle at
the 8 o’clock A. M. express train from Now York at
the New Rochelle depot, yesterday morning, a gen
tleman, very respectably attired, started up the road
with his hands folded and head drooped, as if labor
ing uuder a depression of spirits. Auer lie had pro
ceeded a short distance, ho hulled between the tracks
of the railroad, and stood as though he was wniting
the arrival oftho train. Tho engineer and brukemcn
saw him, and presumed that he would keep clear of
the train ; but on Us approach, ho threw himself
right across tho track, in front of the locomotive—the
whole train imsltig over him {literally smashiughim
to pieces. A gold watch aud chain, also smashed
to atoms, were found on his person. In his pocket
was a wallet containing a roll of bank notes aud two
business bills made out to F. C. Gray. Coroner Hun
tington was immediately sent for, to hold an in
quest.
Wo learn that the unfortunate' man’s name was
Franklin C. Gray, aged about 45 years, a weathly
merchant of Sun Francisco, California, whero he was
Alderman for two years, aud highly respected. Ho
lmd an income of $36,000 a ycur, which ho received
regularly, in moutbly remittances of $3,000.
He brought letters of credit from Cook, Palmer A
Co., of San Francisco, about 15 months ago. IIo has
since been residing, a portion of tho time, in
Washington, where ho recently married a young,
beautiful, and highly accomplished Indy. He lind re
cently purchased a house in New York, iu tho Fifth-
avenue, which I10 fitted up in a most magnificent
style. Last week, while laboring under an abei ra
tion of mind, lie disposed of his bouse and furniture,
at a sacrifice of $7001) to $8000. He advertised bis
furniture for sale ; and, on persons going there, they
found that he had sent for u furniture broker, and
had it all taken away.
Recently, he was introduced to Mr. Foreman, of
the Pavillion Hotel, at New-Racliellc, at the office of
John Cook, Jr., No. 08 Broadway; and alter some
conversation with Mr. F., talked of visiting the place.
Yesterday, he again met Mr. F.,nnd at once d< aided
to return with him. He eamo for the purpose of look
ing at the rooms, and promised tu bring his trunk up
the following day. He appeared to enjoy himself
very much during tho evening, and partook oi n hear
ty supper, lie said ho never enjoyed a meal better.
He was in excellent spirits. Air. Foreman, in accor
dance with the wishes of Air. Cook, did all iu liis pow
er to occupy his mind, as, for some time past, lie liud
been rather depressed. In the evening they went to
tiie Neptune House, to havo a game of billiards, but
not, finding a table at liberty, tbey returned, and he
went to bis room Immediately.
On returning from the Neptune House, it was
agreed upon that they would proceed on a fishing ex
cursion in tho morning, of which amusement lie said
he wus remarkably fond. Air. Foreman invited a
number of ladies to accompany them, with a view to
edify him as mucli as possible. When everything was
ready, and ho ascertained that ladies were going, he
said ho did not feel well,and declined to go. A short
time afterward lie went out at the western gate in the
rear of the house, and after going a short distance,
turned round and looked as though he suspected that
some one was watching him. Not supposing that lie
contemplated anything wrong, no ono followed him
or took any further notice of him.
His wife is expected from Washington tlite morn
ing, to join him. Ho appeared to idolize ids wife ;
and only a few days ago lie made out a will, leaving
her all uis property unconditionally.
We havo said that the body was “ literally smash
ed to pieces." If this statement bo literally under
stood. it will convey some idea of the appearance
which the body presented. Not a piece of the scull
could lie found larger than a penny! Both arms and
the right leg aud foot shared a similar fate. The ver
tebras is in several places broken, and tho left font
smashed to pieces. The brains, mangled flesh and
intestines were scattered iu all directions. Hero was
a broken leg, while there was a part of a hand, or
some other portion of that human frame in which life
and spirit beamed a minute before. The hand that
writes this description of a most horrible death, gath
ered up the scattered brains and mangled limbs,
placed them on a plank and assisted to carry them to
New Rochelle Depot. The horrible suicide occurred
about three hundred yards northeast of the depot.—
The body lies at the depot awaiting the inquest.

Our Dcmnmls on Ureecc.
Decidedly tho Greek Government is set upon trying
the patience of the Government of the United States,
as it did a few years since thot of Great Britain.—
From correspondence from Athens as lute as the lOtli
of Juno, wo learn that whilst the U. Si irignte Cum
berland, having obtained, in spite of dissatisfaction
iu certain quarters, a firman to pass the Dardanelles,
had temporarily loft Athens aud gone to Constantino
ple to protect the Americans residing there, in case
there should be any outbreak of Mussulman fanati
cism during tho dillicnlties between Russia and Tur
key, the U. S. ship levant was still obligud to await
at Athens tiie answer of the Greek Government
might give Air. Alursli, who was still detained there.
The special mission oi our Minister at Constantino
ple lias as yet been ineffectual in eliciting from the
Greek Cabinet tho answer demanded, though we be
lieve it is two mouthssiucc Air. Alarsh’s second urrival
at Athens.
The wrong done by the Greek Government to the
American citizen, Dr. King, wus ol a two-fold nature;
one was iu sustaining his condemnation and impris
onment without legal or constitutional justification;
tho other was in restraining him for sixteen years
from using or selling certain land which lie possessed
in the centre of the city, and declining to buy it.-
After the nature of the complaints had been labor,
ously examined by Mr. Muren during many weeks,
mid the results in voluminous reports hud been pre
sented to Government, President Fillmore was con
vinced that it was absolutely necessary to demand
satisfaction. That satisfaction has been demanded;
but besides the fact that procrastination anil tergiver
sation aro essential ingredients in Greek policy, the
Greeks are just at this moment too much absorbed
with insane dreams aliout tbc extension of their au
thority over European Turkey, and the restoration of
the Greek Cross to Saint Sophia, to attend to the mi
nor matters of justice and comity; and so our proud
ships remain for months expecting promised answers
in vain.
Doubtless fresh and definite instructions havo been
sent to Greece ; yet no American entertains a doubt
that the present Administration will sustain the last,
and persevere until ample satisfaction is obtained,
and that if more decisive measures nre necessary, they
will be adopted. Greece is a petty kingdom, anil
tbe strong should uot be too exacting from the weak,
ns long as they act with justice. But it is preposter
ous for the Greeks to presume upon their weakness,
upon the protectorate of the three powers, aud upon
their classic origin, as a dofeuco and shield, when
their conduct is such that it would incur foul reproach
in a more powerful nation. England Imre with great
pttienco during many years, the contemptuous silence
of successive (5 reek Cabinets to her demands for re
dress in the Paoilico and other affairs ; but at last her
magnauimity was exhausted, and her licet laid an
embargo upon the merchant ships or Greece. It
would be singular if America should have to follow
in the suit of England, and thus present to tho world
the picture of two nations that were tiie most enthu
siastic in the cause ol Greek lilierty, compelled the
first of all to seek from that people by a demonstra
tion of force, that justice which they will not grant
from a sense of honor. But if Greece is so vain ond
self-sufficient that site lias not been taught by a Brit

son of snows. This intelligence wilt be bailed with
plea rare by the people of Missouri, and the undertak
ing of Col. Fremont of this survey during the hall
and Winter snows, shows tbe confidence no feels in
tho practicability of the central route, and this confi
dence shown by one so well acquainted with tbe
whole country ns Col. Fremont cannot fail to inspire
a similar confidence in tho friends of tho central
route. We understand that Col. F. undertakes this
survey without aid from the government; and if so,
it gives him additional claim to tho gratitude of the
whole country.-—67. Lnuis Democrat.
Assassination-
A correspondent gives us full particulars of tho as
sassination of Mr. AlpheuR Jones by Mr. Miller at
Barnes’precinct, in this county, which we mention
ed briefly a few weeks since.—Montgomery, Ala.
Journal:
“ One of the most bloody deeds on record, was not
long since committed by tne licentious and unprinci
pled wretch, Dr. 8. M. W. D. L. Miller, on the person
of Mr. A Interns Jones, a respectable citizen of this
county. The facts in relation to this outrage are as
follows: Said Miller had, for somo months, been in
the employment of said Jones, ond on the night of
the 6th of June last, Jones’ wife left his couch nnd
crept softly to that of Dr. Miller; to which place
Jones Boon followed her, ond attempted to drag her
out of bed; but while doing this, Miller crnelly stab
bed and chopped him with a huge knife, which is
supposed to nave been concealed about tho bed.—
After receiving many death-dealing strokes from
this midnight assassin, Jones, with his entrails in bis
bands, fled to tbo house of his neighbor, Mr. 8upples,
to which place I10 was pursued by Mre. Jones and
Miller, who liad 0 double-barrelled gun. Fortunate
ly, Jones, who was judicious enough to abandon tho
road and take to tne woods, reached there before
them, and fell exhausted in the door just os they ar
rived nt the gate. Not boing allowed entrance, they
both rcturnod to Jones’ house. After ransacking the
house for Jones’ money, (about $400) but which, dur
ing their absence, liad been secured by Jones' moth
er, an aged and decropid lady, Millor mounted his
horse and took (light. Mr. Jones has lain in a hope
less aud deplorable condition at tho house of Mr.
Supples ever since, until bid death on Friday last.
Miller escaped on a black stallion, with a white
face, taking with him a pair of physician’s saddle
bags—black—with patent covers. He (Miller) is a
mite of iow. dlmluUtlvo statue;. black hair And eves.
Opening of the FinsT Railroad in Africa.—
Accounts from Alexandria, Egypt, of Juno 21, state
that tho Cairo and Alexandria Railway had been par
tially opened. A letter, dated tho 2tat says“ Tho
first rafitfuy ever contracted in Africa has been for
twenty-five miles from Alexandria, traversed this day
by locomotives, and i t the land of tho Pyramids oue
inoro monument has been added to the abiding splen
dor of the past. There is to bo a more formal open
ing in a fow months, when tho first section to tho Nile
Is completed.
Tiie Destitute Celestials.-The Charitable ben
efit for tho relief of tho destitute Chinese Dramatic
Company is announced. Arrangements have been
made to give a benefit at CastJo Garden, on Saturday
Evening, July 16, Max Marctzck having proffered the
free U80 of that establishment for this charitable pur
pose. Artists of distinguished reputation have vol
unteered their valuable services, nnd tho Committee
hope to present on the occasion a programme of en
tertainments worthy of public patronage. The ob
ject of this proposed charitable benefit is to raise a
buin of money to enable these unfortunate Chinese'
wlio are in a most destitute condition, to return to
their nativo country.—N. Y. Tribune.
Wu yesterday Haw tho successful result of a surgi
cal operation oi bo novel and ingenious a character
as to deserve mention iu our columns. It was per
formed by Dr. Dixon. Editor of 27ie Scalpel, upon
Mr. D. liyslop, of this city, for a cancer of eight
yenra standing, involving the whole of the lower lip.
The membrane lining the Up being sound, the opera
tion consisted in dissecting off the diseased part and
removing it, leaving the membrane in its natural
place. Thou two incisions were made downward
from the corners of tbe mouth to tho chin, and the
skin covering tho latter, being loosened on each side,
wns crowded up, and by a few delicate stitches con
nected with the membrane. When we saw it the lip
was nearly well, and was perfectly natural ami sym
metrical ; aud when entirely healed a slight Hear
from the cut 011 each side of the cliiu will be the only
trace of tho disease, or of the operation for its re
moval. Jt forms a striking illustration of the re
sources of both nature and art.—N. T. Tribune.

were ready to be shot.
