EVERY FRIDAY, AT 3, P. 1L PRICK —Two Dollars a year, altcoyr la Adrn.cc. IIakxdes’s Expkess.— What of our news comes not by tho wires, conics by Hamden's Express. Early Monday morning Mr. Powers put into our bands three New York papers of Friday, ubich will come by mail to day at 11 o'clock,' if thejr do not fail. In this way we are able to give from the Herald the details of the Great Eastern's grand entry, a stirring sketch.

To enable him the more readily to do it, wc will quote so much of an article in the Daily of June 7th as is germane to the mat ter. ' That was directly after the adjournment Baltimore June, 23, 1860.

If ao. It la our purpoee, and tbe purpoae of tbe minority who took eepamte action at MRledgevIUe, to take laeae with them and appeal to tbe people, solemnly believing that there to no chance of maintaining tbe na tional In tegri ty, except in praeerriiig, on a fair and equi table bails, tbe only remafnlng National Party. We do Intend, if that party give, na a fair candidate on a fair non-intervention platform, according to tbe principles set forth in the minority action In Mllledgcvllle, although said platform does not embrace or call for Congressional intervention and protection—we do intend, m inch a case, to raise tbe banner of the National Democracy, and make onr earnest appeal to tbe people of Georgia far tbe ippoet of tbe National Ticket. Uat we will make ao factions tight. We are for acting with tbe united Democracy or ucurgla, un a common ticket. If poaaible. If they wilt accept a eonnd nominee, on a aound non-luterTcntioo platform, be tbe nominee whom he may, wc will go with them heart and soul. If tbe Baltimore Convention shall yield to their wtohee In respect to protection, though wc shall regret tbe affirma tion of tbe doctrine as likely to be a source of future trouble, we will atm net heartily with them In support of tbe ticket Onr object to aimplv and solely to avoid, by any meant compatible with principle antf honor, the ruin of the National Democratic Party—tbe catastrophe of a mere sectional struggle, in which tbe weaker sec tion must go to the wall, and the verdict of tbe ballot- box leave no resort but tbe argument of farce and tbe conflict of arms. This we think will be sufficient to quiet the charge of inconsistency as to principle* ; and now in respect to that as to mm. From 1836 up to this time, wc have been steadily and consistently anti-Douglas. It is true, that we did not sympathise in the effort to prostrate him before Lincoln last year, and cannot now understand how any nationkl dem ocrat could do it But wc opposed the nomi nation of Douglas in 1856 and again in 1860. Not to tire the reader with old mites, wc will take the few days immediately preceding the session of the Charleston Convention, when the newspapers were declaring their prefer ences, and wc were anxious to contribute a mite to the anti-Douglas opinion. In the Dai ly Telegraph of the 14th April last the reader will find an editorial article of nearly two col umns, wherein wc labored to combat the views day before presented by the Augusta Consti tutionalist, that Mr. Douglas was the only candidate that could be elected. After argu ing at length the conditions of success, that articlo declares as follows So far then from being'tbe strongest men, it strike! ns be (Douglas) to one or tbe weaken which tbe democracy cen out forward. In the peculiar condition of things which must beeuconntcrcd. If Black Repnbllcanlsmls stronger now than In ISSfl. then we can only hope for aecceaa by conciliating onuide strength, and foe that purpose Mr. Douglas, it seems to ne, to singularly nna va liable. Who should be nominated 1 A Southern man, of fair antecedents and good record, would. In onr Judgment, do best. We believe be would do better in tbe North than a Northern man. Nominate a man, first and fore most, who cannot well be crippled In tbe South by a third party movement, nunter, wc think, will do— Uretidaridgc ought to be satisfactory—but any man of fair standing and clean record will anewer. Next, a Not them man of well known Constitutional antece dents. But for the greet end of tbe campaign—tbie sln- S utl-lrrepreislble conflict Issue—a Southern man, of rrml Constitutional tone, will best meet the crisis— will most conciliate outside strength, and If pnabed with the energy and vigor worthy of the cause, will as surely csnqulsb and prostrate Sewardlem as be makes tbe en counter. So also, the charge ofi nconsistcncy as to men is groundless. ' llut we are indifferent about criminations of this character. Five years hence let he who can trace a straight record, cither in doctrines or men, throw stones. \\c arc upon the line of times, when crew to will make stem sport of theories in shaping the course of men and the destiny of States. The work of derangement ind disorganisation is only begun,- ami hence forward the line of principle is to be carried ove r and through the wreck and ruins of nil pau-t paUtlnr.l .ro.wlvmollmir * m»m. ~laej straight work politicians will make of it A consistent party and political record wherein avery act of a man’s life is seen to have its uni form bearing towardsthe building up of a part y and its adherent,, is a thing of the past. It oould exist only in a quiet and uniform tide of political history. Its eras are to lie found ip tbe struggles for conxtitntional construction tie- tween the Federalists and the Republicans, and upon the constitutionality of measures, between the Democrats and the Whigs. Those doctri nal contests are past and gone, and wo have now substituted to our hands a mere struggle for sectional power and predominance. The is sues it will create are to lie met as they come— the combinations it forms are to be counteracted by combinations. This is party history' in' the future, and no man can tell what is to spring out of the confusion and chans. One thing however, wc are sure, will not come of it. and that is personal political consistency. A NEW PRESCRIPTION. The Savannah Republican, in ita concern for the consistency of tho Telegraph, is neglecting all care for its own. We could have taken our "dftvy,” two davs ago, tluit the Republican was at last loeat<A— that its own labored argu ments for the extreme conservatism of Mr. Everett, and extraordinary soundness of Mr. Bell, had at least satisfied itnelf, and hence forth nothing remained but a steady pull at the tintinnabulum till election day. Not so. The Republican is all afloat again. He cannot stand by the Boll solus. In fact, lie proposes to dispense with the Bell. He “feels it is nil wrong.” It “ is a most injurious and unnatu ral war" between the friends of Air. Bell and those of Air. Breckinridge, and a compromise must be effected. How? Saithhe: Our plan is this: Let Breckinridge and Lane both withdraw from the contest; let Mr. Bell do IJbe Bamo thing, leaving Edward Ever ett, the purest and best man of liis day and generation, the compromise candidate for the Vicc-Prcsidcncy. Then let a Southern Demo crat head the ticket. We know but one who, in all respects availability included, Is fitted for the post, and that is Hon. James n. Ham mond, of South Carolina." Of course, tlie Republican lias a power of attorney from the “Constitutional Union Par ty” of tlie Republic to nullify their action at Baltimore in favor of his "plan." But will the Democratic Baltimore men acquiesce? Pcrkaj* so. If they had no great respect for the “plan ” they m’iglit have too much sym pathy for the Republican to reject it. Who knows? The "plan," then, would distinctly embody the platform, which, you know, is the “ Union, tho Constitution, and the enforce ment of the laws.” 1st, "Tie C,iion"~-a union between those who bnliove, villi Mr. Ewictt, that Congress can rightlully and con- siituiionally prohibit slavery in the Territories and the District of Columbia, and the sale of slaves from State to Slate—and those who, per contra, believe with Mr. Hammond, that Con- gress can constitutionally do no such things. •• /},( ContiUvtion," as' harmoniou.-iy inter preted bv those supporters of the ticket, the ■■ fhforcemn.tof the hurt"—of all law- passed bv either party to this militating interpreta tion.

Of course the principal topic of disenssion was the Great Eastern, and after leaving the Nar rows every eye was on tlie qui tire to discover a trace of the ship.

Tlie building was crowded to suffocation, presenting a sea of expansion hoops and np»rkljng eyes, a garden perfum ing thc air with the balm of a thoueand flower*, a forest, the leaves of which were Japanese fans, waved by gentle breezes, while “Tom my” is being chirped by a thousand pretty throats. The great feature of the performance was thc grand Japanese March composed for the occasion, and whielt was rendered with tremendous effect, the three hundred violins, teijprs, basses, and double basses, played up on lielow the bridges, and for which one liarrc-1 of rosin was furnished, done tlicir part well, with thc exception of a few' which appeared to be a little out of pitch, the- wind instruments, blown by the steam engine under the stage, perfonne'd with great power, as also did the organ of steam whistles, which in the fortu passages was most admirable, but I. should re commend thc engineer not to try the boiler guage, during one or more bars rest in the music, as it injures the effect. The 150 Chi nese gongs with as many cymbols, ami 144 drums anu seventy-five potash kettles, which wercintroduced in place of kcttlo drums, as much more effective, were performed upon with tlie greatest 'precision, and last but not least, I would mention the trip-hammer from tlie Novelty Work, which was one ofthe most effective instruments in the orchestra. The Embassy occupied thc proccnium boxes, and uu» r —c„_oniy>. nnneared to make a greater impression on them than anything that lias been gotten up for them since their arrival. The first note of the march given with the full power Of this monster orchestra, opened wide the eyes of the chief' Embassadors probably' for the first tijne since they have been among us, whilst it was noticed that the cues of ■ number of the Embassy, which usually rest od the top of their heads like a coil of rope, had become uncoiled and assumed a perpen dicular position, pointing directly upward.— The performance was a decided success and does great credit to the management of the Academy, of Alusie, as Well as to the composer of the inarch and - conductor of the perfor mance. Of course thc Japanese were.duly impressed and delighted. ' ■ Very respectfully, ■ C. New York, June 2’Jth, 1860. Frietul QlUby .'—The. Japanese leave us to morrow, in tlie Niagara, and the Great Eastern has made her appearaucc amongst us at last; so, thc Gothamites have something to keep up the excitement—something to lionize—some thing to raise up this furore whicli seems to be n necessary element for tlie citizens of this great metropolis.

He died suddenly, having been in apparently very good health a quarter of an hour before lie expired. The servants upon going after hearing his bell, found him lying on his bed, evidently in a dying condition. Thc position in his church held by thc Most Reverend gentleman was a sufficient indication ofthe high esteem in which lie was held by the Church, and in all his other relation lie was honored highly aud well beloved.

DirriccLTT Between Secular and Reli gious Authorities.—A difficulty has arisen be tween Archbishop Hughes and the authorities of New York. It appears that the City inspec tor addressed a notification to thc Archbishop that the law passed in 1853, providing for the registry of births, deaths and marriages, re quired every clergyman to report all marriages celebrated by him to the City inspector, under a penalty of fifty dollars for refusing or neglect ing so to <la The Archbishop, however, replied by declining, “with the utmost res]>ect for all human legal authority,” to fulfil the simple re quirements of that law. He says that many ca ses occur in which it is for the Catholic priest to remedy privately thc evils which the corrup tion of morals mav have entailed, and declare- , . . . — . that while he, tlie’Archbishop, Is “quite ready ® r being towering Cnr n or « fir, AM,1 ” ij i- not nrenared to “ ons of a kindly n the shape of a ship, long before anything of the ordinary craft around her was visible, except their sails, untill finally loomed up in a mazy outline the beautiful proportions of the gigantic steamer. She was at this time lying broadside to, exposing to thc best advantage her form about half way between Sandy nook and thc light ship, lieing on an obtuse angle to thc south ward between tho two. and about fourteen miles from the Narrows. A number of small boats— for everything must now he considered small— yatches and steamers were plying around her, hut looked in tlio distance like c© many 4mtinu live ants creeping busily around the carcass a sleeping beetle. She was settled a little by the stem, but at thc same time she was exposed throughout her wholclcngth some three feet or more of her cream colored bottom. She was at this time drawing twenty-seven feet of water, being lighter by about three thousand tons than when she left Southampton. Steam was emerging from three of her smoke-stacks, and thc British ensign fluttered fioin her peak. One of our largest steam tugs was moored alongside, hut, in thc distance, the two black bodies seemed so closely merged in one that the latter was barely discernible. A broad white streak running around the ship relieved what would otherwise be monotony of color, while two British bull dogs protruded their black noses through as many port holes, ready to thunder away their responses to her hearty American ’welcome. Her general ap pcarance, at tills moment, was like that of s majestic yacht, and her fine lines, as thc tug steamed around her in a circle of nearly mile, were revealed to their best advantage. It was only on coming alongside, however, that one could appreciate thc magnitude of the Leviathan. Here, looking up in thc wheel, almost as largo as the dome of the capitol at Washington, the beholder is lost in astonish ment at the maze of iron ribs, plates, buckets, wheels and machinery by which the ponderous body is kept in motion. Faces are seen lining the edge ofthe bulwarks, and the wheel house is covered with tlie passengers and officers, hut so far up in thc air tiiat they seem almost like Lilliputians. The enthusiasm hs intense. Cheer after cheer ■ resounds in tlie air, words of greeting are exchanged between re-united friends, and general good feeling prevails. How could it be otherwise?. The Great Eastern spoke for herself There she lay, almost in consckms'inajesty, a brilliant success.- We are now moored alongside, however, and prepared to ascend, which wc do by a long sc ries of wooden stairways, terminating on'thc deck immediately afl of thc wheel house. As we are going up, a voice from above says, “Are all these gentlemen guests S” (There were about fifty on Sic tug.) “Yes,” says some one be hind its. “A hearty welcome, then, friends," returns a rough, honest voice, and, .strangers as we are, we find, on reaching the “terra firrna” of th^ship, a warm hand grasping our own in warmer welcome. •• You’ve been a long time coming,” says one.- “Well, we’ve come along as fnst'as a long ship would bring us.” “Yes,” says the first, “you couldn’t be much longer, if you wanted to.” Leaving, the punsters to their enjoyment, however, we drop down Upon tlie deck, the huge broadwayof the »mp, or miner a sortmr aquatic park, where a man may ramble until lus legs are tired, and yet not lmlf gratify an ordinary curiosity. Away in the distance forward are the mcn at work ; amidships, Capt. Vinchall, a thorough specimen of thc English sailor, is urbanely re ceiving the gentlemen who have just arrived, while aft a small crowd of mingled strangers and friends are straggling along in wonderment at tlie novel scene around them. Questions are asked and answered with tho greatest good humor; interesting features are. pointed out; incidents of the trip arc . rehearsed, and the qualities pf thc great ship are discussed, as if she was the veriest pet in the world. -It is now about two o’.clock; the tide is at its- height; and tlie moment lias arrived when thc feet is-to he demonstrated whether or not the Great Eastern can cross thc bar. Much'has been said pro and con on the subject, and it is quite natural that the liveliest interest should prevail. The officers are all at tlicir stations— one stands forward near tlie foremast l>y thc gang, whioh is a part of tho system of commit ideation from point to point; Capt. Vinchall and Mr. Murphy, the New York pilot,-with his associate, Mr. Van Duzcr, are on tlie wheel housc, cool, calm and collected; the engineer is at his station, looking down in thc huge vault where revolves the massive machinery, with a steadiness that would not draw thc at tention Of even a blind man; an officer or two arc on the narrow bridge amidships, at a wheel which connects with the machinery for steering, watching with the utmost care every motion of the pilot, while eight helmsmen at the four wheels connected with the steering apparatus astern, taking their cue from him, guide the ship on its course. The order is finally given by Mr. Murphy, under whose command the ship has now passed to “Go ahead.” Thc engineer wares his linnd, the offleo below repeats the order to those still further below, and ina minute the great wheels commence tlicir revolutions. The stupendous fabric yiclife to tho mighty jiowcr within her bowels, and, moving slowly on jts way, com mences, as it were, a triumphal march townrds tlie city. Gradually the point of. danger is neared. The perilous bar is at bund. Speed is accordingly slacked, and Mr. Murphy, from his position, silently gives his orders. A sim ple elevation or depression of the hand indi cates to tlie helmsmen the course they are to pursue, and the ship, under this skillful gui dance, obeying her helm with almost thc read iness of a sail boat, proceeds on her way. A majority of thc people are meanwhile cir culating through tho various apartments of tiio ship, as they would through one of our magnif icent hotels," bestowing hardly a thought upon the event immediately transpiring around them, which is uppermost in the minds of a few. In fact, most of them' arc unacquainted with the exact locality of the danger, and probably won der at the slow pace with which they are creep ing along. Once, it is said, the noble vessel barely touched bottom, but tin’s is uncertain; and as the point of contact was nearly a quar ter of a mile away, few troubled themselves a- bont nn incident which required so much travel to investigate. Among those cognizant of the tact, it was gencrallv agreed that the discolored water which marked the spot was only the stir ring up of tlie great deep by her screw. At aboot three o’clock the company sat down to an elegant repast, to whicli, with freshened appetites they did full justice^ It was a genu ine, hearty English meal, such an ono as an individual who has had a sea breeze in his com position for six or eight hours is most likely to give his undivided attention. Choice wines ac companied the repast which were partaken of with that moderation which always marks a party of gentlemen; and at an opportune mo ment thc cloth was removed and they were made one of tlie medium for exchanging the kind feel ings which prevailed. Passing Fort Lafayette, a salute was fired, j whicli was promptly responded to from the four • guns of the Great Eastern, and from this time j hie, increased. Hundreds of little' craft shot out into the stream and fell in the wake of the Great Eastern. Looking down from her forctop —an elevation almost equal to that of the tallest ordinary mast—it seemed almost a fairy spec tacle. Below, was the beautiful outline of the largest steamer in the world, gliding so majes tically and quietly through the water that her motion was hardly perceptible, while behind, as far as the eye could reach—commencing with a few fast steamers at the stern—spread out the escort in thc shape of an immense fan, every fold of which was quivering with beautiful fife. When nearly ofl’ the Battery, the chimes of Trinity Church were heard across the water, playing “Rule Britannia.’’ Salutes were fired from all thc steamers in port, not excepting, of course, the Cunardcrs at Jersey City, which on the present occasion did extra honors. Shortly after, Capt. France, of tlie revenue cutter Harriet Lane, came on board, accompan ied by Collector Schell, Baron Rothschild, Au gust Belmont, First Assist’t Collector Ira Todd; Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Mr. Clay ton ; Mr. A. Isaacs, and others, with whom the customary civilities were exchanged.

Here, after some difficulty, she was turned and headed downstream for her dock, where, contrary to general expectation, she was at once moored. Thc manner in which this was donc reflects the highest credit upon Mr. Murphy, the pilot, and the reader can appreciate the daring of the un dertaking on being informed that the immense ship was carried alongside by him to the no small astonishment of every person on hoard, including the officers, with as much case appa rently as he would handle his own pilot boat, governed alone by her own impetus and without the aid of a single friendly hawser from a steam tug. Here she was made to touch the dock in a gentle way, clipping off only a splinter, com paratively, as she came alongside; hawsers were got out, the passengers’ luggage was inspected and remove-1, good bye was said all around, the company departed for tlicir respective destina tions, and the Great Eastern quietly settled her self fora two months’ rest.

Nobody was troubled with any malady she hadn't suffered.
