There is one consolation in this state of things: It is, that tho people are uniting as one man. to toss his administration and all con nected with it, to the bottomless pit. The soon-, er the betterynnd with Americans in power, the wretched diplomatic appointments will all ho rescinded, and new men will be sent ont It is a great, pity that the election for President could not come off to-morrow.

It is owned and kept by an Irishman, a pretty clev- • r fellow, and one of our oldest citizens. That “.-hop" is the reliving point for all Mao's coun trymen about here, who are fond of taking a “«ve dhrop."

Deaths by Violence.—We have just re ceived the painful intelligence of the death of two men in Fannin county, by tho hand of Mr. onter. • ■’••jK ' We understand tho facts to be as follows : Three men came to Mr. Gunter’s house In search ofa Mr. Smith, nnd not finding him, went on their way; but returned in a short time and commenced throwing down Gunter's fence ’in order to ride 1n.> Gunter came out of hi? still house, which was inside the inclosure and for bid them throwing it down, but they persisted and a fightqnsned. and the three being nn ov*r- mateh for Gnnter, ho retired into toe -tillhouse. One of the men whofeo name was Mill -r. and who had fired a (revolvor) pistol during tho rencounter now rode up to the door of tho still house and fired at Gnnter in at the door. Gun ter then shot Miller with a rifle, who fdl from his horse and immediately expired. Another one| of-tho combatants by the name of Nash seized tbe pistol which had fell from Miller’s hands and fired at Gnnter in at the door, where upon Gunter stepped out with anothrri!!. see ing which Nosh turned and 'fled, and Gunter I ■ pact appeared rather moje favorable. But the shock to bis system was too much, anddeath suprevened about forty hours after ^jp'acei- dent . - The Lancaster Gtrs.—The Montreal G»- acUo of Dec. i>, furnishes & particular account of this new arm of which a» much mention to mado in too reports of battles to the Crimea, and from which such astonishing effects bar* been predicted. The article In the Gazette to a controversial one, but we extract from it th* following particulars. * * The Lancaster gun has the appearance of ant ordinary large cannon, but its peculiarity eea* sists in the bore, which is elliptical in shape, and slightly spiral. Tbe month instead of be ing circular, is elongated like an egg. From the mouth the boro winds gradually tc breech, in such a degree aa to make a quar of a circle—that is the projectile if vcrtics inserted r t the mouth, will lie at tbe breech at right, angles with its first position—that is hor izontally. The projectile shell or shot is of tho shape of tho mouth of the gnn, and flattened. When toe gun os fired the hall acquires a rotary motion, and must mako one revolution every four lengths of the gun. This is tho effect for which small arms are ri fled. It is impossible to cast balls whiohareper- fectly round. Tbe slightest inequality of the hall necessarily deflects it from the true range. Tn sinnll arms tho barrels are rifled so that a rotary motion is given to the bullet, which counteracts the tendency to fly off in any uCe direction, nnd scuds it straight forward. This plan may answer for small arms and leaden bul lets, but it is impracticable to groove cannon for iron balls. The Lancaster gnn is therefor# a substitute for rifled cannon, throwing an el liptical shot ont of an elliptical bore, to which a rotary motion has been given by a spiral curv# in the gun. Several of these gun3 have burst, and there to some apprehensions expressed of their liability to 'mr*l in cr»n--<yi<m>-o of ton incrnnii*d resis tance within the bore to the iron ball. They are used at long ranges, and they are described a* wonderfully true to their aim.

Allow one deeply interested as a Parent in this school, to say a few words in addition to toe favorable notice already published. As a Fath er Having several children to educate, I have studied hpw I might, with the greatest facility, ascertain the abibity of a Teacher to do my children good without waiting till the end of a Term or year to judge by their measure of at tainment. As yet I have fixed upon hut one sign that has not disappointed me; by this criterion I can form a tolerably just, estimate during the first week or two after the school opens. When my children do not wish to retire to rest at night until they have learned their lessons for the next day—or when they will rise quite early in the morning to review the pre vious night’s studies; I am satisfied that their teacher will do. He has secured their respect, and infused into them a spirit of emulation. Such a teacher possesses a gift which is more potent for good to tho young, than Till the eru- dition aUd ’experience of Mr. Shcxbley, or any other man, without this talent; Pmean, the art of imparting what ho knows. This is too magic key which unlocks his own stores of knowledge and the avenues to the minds of all his scholars. If two yeareof close observation, will greatly gratify ono who is in earnest to judge in such a case, Imay bepermittod to say, that this art is possessed nnd exercised by Mr. Sheibly in an eminent degree. Wero I to say all which a just estimation of this gentleman’ system as a teacher or ability ns a scholar would i prompt; soma persons might conceive this to be a mere complimentary card. I will there fore oulyremark that I am much interested ns a Parent in Mr. Sheibly’s remaining among us; thfp ho ought not to he ejzpec’ed todo unless ho is well sustained ; tind ns ho is often receiving advantageous propopositions to leavo us, my hearty desire is that ho may always have, as long os ho desires to remain, as good a school as he dould get nnywhero else.

THE KNOW-NOTHING MOVEMENT. The present movement is duo to a deeper. yoml expression the sentiment which has indu ced a large portion of the Iri?h nation to evince anxiety for 137 return: and I feel deeply grate ful for the sympathy which has been exhibited in tbe United States, the British colonies and elsewhere, toalft? the TriAi political exiles; but it does not seem tome to be consistent with the dignity of tn:' country to solicit foreign inter vention on our behalf. For my own part, I am not conscious that I have done anything which disentitles me from spending the remainder of my life in Ir«l— V and, which country is not ODly the home of ** affections, but also the nat ral sphere, of my duties : aud I am convinced that sound policy as well as genorous feeling dictates tbe promul gation by the British Government ofa complete and general amnesty, with regard to the proced- dings of nil those who were compromised in toe insurrectionary movement of the year 1348. I now find myself compelled to remove my family, in the middle of winter, from their cher ished home in Ireland, and-to seek for them a domicil sn some foreign country. Such a lot, though preferable to imprisonment in Van I>ie- inti-.i’s Land, naturally gives occasion for much .-oiictade; but I would rather remain forever aa exile from the land which I love than return thither under restrictors incompatible with :my persona- honor, or with tue rights and duties of an Irish gentleman.

This conviction comes, moreover, just at. a time when the old parties have lost their hold npon the confidence'of.the people, when the issues that havo divided them have been decided or have died out, when their machine ry of intrigue, their shuffling evasions, the dodges the chicanery, and the deception of the leaders here excited universal disgust, and have crea ted a general readiness in the puhlio mind for any new organization that shall promise to shun their vices and combine the elements that havo hitherto given strength.
