The Vote for Speaker.
We find the following editorial paragraph iu the
Augusta Conttitutionalist, of Tuesday :
" Where are the national Know Nothings from
the South ? Where nre they from the East, or the
North, or the West ? All cotnhiuiug against the
father of tho Knnsas-Nebrnska bill. Pome are
voting for Marshall, of Kentucky, and many are
voting for candidates who sail under the flag of
bla.k republicanism. The test we apply to them is
tbe vote they give, and the company they keep."
The Constitutionalist seems determined to place
tbo American party, eveu including its Southern
wing, in an attitude of friendship for the frce-soil-
ers. We need not entnmout upon such a policy on
tho part of our democratic cotemporary, or de
fend the American par y against tbe injustice of
•nch a charge. How tho above paragraph could
have been written in the face of a statement of tbe
actual vote that is published on the same page with
it. we arc at a loss to know. The truth is, no man
regarded as a National American haa yet voted for
a candidate who is in favor of disturbing the Ne
braska bill. They may not have voted for Rich- ! thither a goodly number of House members, cither
wfelr aad U» (Pavaanah Railroads. The bill
r m4 by oaly two votes this morning other Sena
tors recorded their rotaa upon it, till finally the bill
hung upon a single vote. Nearly the whole day was
spent on Mr. Buchanan's motion. Mr. B. support
ed U In a lengthy speech, and was aided by Messrs.
Gone of Greono, and Pope of Wilkos s Messrs. Mil
ler of Richmond, Gibson of Pike, Peeples of Clarke,
Lawton of Dougherty, and Long of Glynn, took
tbe other aide. The debate was ably conducted on
both aides, and was listened to with the deepest in
terest, not only by the Senate, but a large audience
of outsiders. The exceeding closeness of the con
tort, aud the slender thread ou which tho bill hung
added to its great importance as txntoasnre, potont
either for evil or for good, gave an interest to the
•cene which it will require a more graphic pen
than I wield, to describe. Tho contestants being
at length through, having done their all, pro and
rou, the vote was required to l*e taken. It was for
n long time doubtful, which wav the scale would
turn: but the clerk happened to strike a long string
of “ nays" (against tho reconsideration) and as
they came out, one after another to the amount of
wear a dozen, the breathless silence was broken ;
the (Viends of the bill breathed free. Mauy a time
to-day, however, have they trembled for the fate of
their darling, and thoir evident unensiness added
much to the zeal of their opponents, who muy al
most lie said to hnvc moved heaven and earth to
crash the bill. But tho defence was gallant and
firm. Tbe vote yesterday was 18 to 60. To-day,
on the inotiou to reconsider, tbe vote stood Ayes 48,
Nays 54. I should add that some of ;bo votes
against reconsideration would have been cast
against the bill, had it been up. Tho bill has yet
to puss the House.

combined against Campbell, the Freosoil candidate,
for they are voting as much against him ns they!
are against Richardson. The vote shows conelu- j
sivuly that tbe National Americans are standing j
the State. The bill requires such Agencies to pro
cure license good for twelve mouths only, and at
the moderate price of 325,000.
By Mr. Ward of Butts : to authorize the Govcrn-
b.'tween tbe Democratic candidate and a perfect J or to refund any monies unlawfully paid into the
immolation at the ltnnds of the Frcesoilers. Had
tk”y a mind to favor the Frets oilers, they might !
have united with tiicuTbn the fir.-t ballet and liuvo ,

Richardson, also be regarded as ‘'combined against <
tho f.uh ir of the Nebraska, Kansas Ml]? Docs the 1
CjnstitutionaUst charge them, too, with unsound- j

The position of the National Americans is s : m- .
ply this : They nre opposed to the Admini.-tra- 1
ti n, aud t> the Frcesoilers, aud they are voting .
against the candidates of both. This whole delay J
in the election of a Speaker has he n caused solely ,

tbe House should be organized upon tbe Nebraska

Lewis that the art of staining gln-s has m>t only
been revived, but carried to a degree of perfection
never before attained to. Thc best bronze statues
in the world aro cast here, and the only good re

these and other arts have been carried, under the
patronage of thc King, to a degree of perfection
hardly credible. It would require pages to enu
merate what this man—himself n good poet, and
endowed with nn exqiiieito taste, cultivated by

work—while
coming to tbe
propriated bis private income of some two millions
of dollars a year, and a certain portion of the pub
lic revenue; and this he has effectod, not by in
creasing taxation, hut by keeping down to a very

he has appropriated forty or fifty millions of dol

from tbe acquisition of important objects of art,

of fact au available capital to Bankers here. Or
ders have come out by recent ateumurs to remit ns

flection shows that Exchange sold to Bankers
here to he remitted against balances previously
contracted, is just so much withdrawn frani our
available resources, and that its effect is precisely
the fame ns 90 much money ilruwu abruptly from
the market.
Suppose, for example, that thc leading Bankers
of this city and Boston have drawn Exchange to
tho amount of ten millions of dollars, for which
they remit iu other bills bought at a profit, or in
specie, os opportunities offer: if money is easy in
England, Lardy remittances arc acceptable, inas
much as thc Bankers there makegood rates of in

this credit, our Bankers thus obtain thc use of a
large amount of English capital. But money be
comes dear in England, und Bankers there find it
\ necessary to stop advances—it follows that tho
I capital must be withdrawn from this country rnp-
; idly. It is precisely this movement which is now
j acting adversely upon our money market: Bankers
arc paying up their hnlances, nnd the influence of
the drafts thus made upon capital which has so
use here, that it appeared to be part

I Bankers will continue to remit until their debts arc

here (thanks to King Lewis for this and everything
Iso) a royal manufactory of painted glass, the di
rector of which is Henry Hess, one of the artistic
celebrities of Germany. They arc now making
there thu superb wind >ws for tho cathedral of Co
logne. Thc brothers Scherer have n private es-
ablishment, in which they do most lovely work.—
One brother designs thc cartoons, another paints
on the glass, and the third is charged with thu
burning. This last is a most delicate process, per
fumed from three to five times, according to the
number of colors and other circumstances—gene-
hrefc times. When thc plates of glass urc
large, thc risk of breakage resulting from the itn-
isc difficulty of preserving n perfectly equable
heat is much increased. But thc other day nn nr-
tist lost tbe fruits of ten months work, by the tin-
equal expansion of thc glass. In glass painting,
you select a pure white glass, aud lay. on,*as 011
canvass, your first or fundamental colors, then
burn them in, increasing thc heat to thc point of
vitrification, so that thc colors form a translucent
part of thc glass. Then paint on nnd burn ngnin,
nnd so on, till thc work is done. But how nre these
colors thus vitrified? It is by mixing them with n
glass flux, which is an intermedium of the precise
nnturc of glass, which blends or causes to flow to
gether the varkd colors into harmonious surfaces,
like those laid on by the painter. This flux is
composed generally of borax, pure silex, (quartz,)
finely pulverised, and the red oxide of lead, which
lust suhstanco parts with its color in tbe process of
burning. Occasionally some other substances arc
introduced into :. e flux, but these (the proportions
being suitably varied) aro the principal ones. The
colors nre, in tho first place, mixed with oil, which

1 Titr. “Hard Shells."—Tho New York corres
pondent of the National Intelligencer says that the
organ of the Hard-Shell Democrats in' that city
i'idignnntly denies that any members of that sec-
ti <n of thc party were present nt tho roeont moot
ing for thc purpose of reuniting the Democracy,
and declares that the Hards nre not now in the
least tlegree anxious to unite with tho Softs, “ex
cept upon the terms of the latter abandoning their
irregular Frccsoil organization, formally reading
the Van Burens out of their ranks and coming back
repentant to the fold.”
What think our Georgia democratized Whigs of
this? After quitting their old friends and uniting
with tho Democracy in order to got intoa “sound
party,’ it seems the sound portion of it is now repu
diating their fellowship!
The ense of Ilnrriet Smith vs. Tulmunn Phillips,

All the colors used in glnssor porcelain puinting
nre metallic oxides. Others arc dissipated or
changed by hent. Modern chemistry, tho great
hand-inaid of medical, agricultural and other sci
ences, is one of the agents—the principal one—
which has given to the glass painting of this day
a decided superiority over that of tho middle nge.
It has discovered, as every one knows, numerous
metals unknown in that day. Tho oxides of chrome,
of antimony, Urnn, and a great many others, were
not known or not used then. Those lovely violets,
certuin shades of red, and numerous colors now
used, were not known in tho middlo age. Thus
the superiority of the art in this dny is manifest,
from three Several causes. First, thc drawing and
coloring of the artists of Munich is far superior,
(eveu supposing other things equal,); second, tho
number of colors is vastly increased; and third,
they use now plates of glues many times grentcr
than they did in the middle ages, so that tbe pic
tures nre altogether more satisfactory. As for tho
drawing, there is no comparison to bo made be
tween most of the stiff, ungainly figures of the time
past, nnd thoeo designed by the eminent Munich
urtistn of the present dny.
There aro several firms hero distinguished in
this line. In spanking of thc Scherers, I might
have added that they have just executed charming
cartoons, from which they aro to fabricate two
stained windows for n Roman churah in Buflulo,

LaMSurlW* Portrait sf C'tonar,
M. GaltorrUt, th* well-know* correspond**! at
th* Cuarrier tie* Estate I'nie, writes M follows,
from Paris, under date of October 4th 1
The Prene has Jnsl completed the publication of
the Life of Caesar, by M. de Lamartine. Alexandre
Dumas is publishing a work on the same subject
In the Moosaurtnirt. M. da Lamartine has treated
the life of bis hero like a political epic. Dumas
treats it as an amusing comedy. He gutberi* up
ail tho anecdotes, aud loses himself in the midst of
digressions. Ono writes like Suelouius, the other
like Tacitus.
The work of M. do Lamartine has produced
considerable sensation, ami very naturally. For it
is something more than an entertaining book, it is
a political pamphlet which displays great boldness
iu the present circumstances, aud this net of liter
ary temerity contrasts strikingly with tbe reserve
preserved till uow by the former presideut of the
provisional government. It was thought he had
given up politics altogether, but here we find him
again in the political arena, armed from head to
foot, under thc mask of history. His work abounds
iu allusious to thu present time, and Ceosar up-
pears there much more us a frame than as a pic
ture. Other figures present themselves there as
often as his own, und the dead is only a nail on
which to fastfn the living. The history of France,
in Qne, palpitates at every iustout, under thc his
tory of Rome.
M. do Lamartine docs not hesitate to say that
Cmsor merited, by his crimes, the twenty-three
blows of the dagger which prostrated him at tho
toot of the statue of Pouipoy, at the tuument he
was about to bo proclaimed king. The author
draws up such a terrible accusation aguinst the
victim, anil paints Midi a beautiful picture of
Brutus, the chief of his murderers, that the rcador
naturally usks himself, if tin's is not un uuducious
puuogyrie ot political ussit&siuulion, and ii the/o-o-
curcor imperinl will not havo a bone to pick with
1 lie author. “Opinion was fixed," says thu author,
"the design seemed so honest that it wn.« not a
cunipiot in tho mind of thc conspirators. It whs
tile coiip d' etat of the republic, the just retaliation
ol liberty."
M. -le Lamartine treats not less eloquently tho
question whether the republic was actuully decay
ing at Rome when Ctosur cuuie to destroy it. He
undertake" to prove that it stili had great vital
power from the fact of its furnishing an army of
seven hundred tliousnnd citizens, who defended it
at the battle of Pliursulia, Thupsus und Muuda.—
At tho surne time that he fulminates his accusa
tions ngain-t the reputation of thc conqueror nt
Pliursulia, M. du Lamortiue undertakes to sustain
the honor of Cataline. That is a point of rctnurk-
abie resemblance between his history of Ctcsur and
his history of the Girondins, which is a sort of
apotheosis to Robespierre. These two works arc two
mauefcetocs, inspired by the same spirit—one be
fore and the other after tho Republic of February,
1848.

Fasrionadle Intelligence.—At 8 o’clock la*t
evening, at the Metropolitan, Mr. Edward Arthur
Lawrence, of thin city, was united in marriage to
Miss Mary Mickle, daughter of ex-Mnyor Mickle.
The ceremony took pluco in the parlor of the hotel,
and was witnessed by nearly three hundred of the
relatives nnd intiuiutc friends of tho parties.—
Among those present we noticed Senntor Dickin
son, Governor Ditnond, of Rhode Island : Hon.
Robert J. Walker, Commodore Nicholson, U. S. N*.
Thomas Francis Meagher, Esq., Hon. J. M. Den
ver, member of Congress from California ; Gen.
Escnndor, of Mexico ; Stanhope Prevost, Esq.,
Judge Roosevelt, Charles II. Morgan Esq. ; Hon.
Pre-ton King, Ex-Mayor Ivingsland, Gen. Tall-
mndgo, and many otiier distinguished persous.—
Thc array of carriages made quite an excitement
about tbe hotel, and tho audience nt the ceremony
numbered a* many ns a thousand. After the cere-
monyn splendid entertainment was given,including
n soiree dansante, in one of the large dining-rooms,
and n supper, in the best style of the Metropolitan,
was given in tho other. This may ho considered

Canadian Ladies Odliged to Come to the
States for a Divorce from their Husbands.—
The subject of divorce is now agitated in not only
new works by American writers, but it is gaining
much attention in Europe. Three writer* v>f note
have recently touched upon the subject. The one,
Miss Bronte, in “Jane Eyre," tbe second, Mrs.
Norton, in “ Stuart of Dunleatb," and Mr. Dickens
in “ Hard Times," is tho third. But the great dif
ficulty in divorce cases, if too great latitude is
given, lies in the fact that we cannot tell where it
will end. Iu Canada it requires a fortune to get a
decision in such mutters. There, ns in Connecti
cut foriustonco it goes before the legislature, with
this difference, that in the Provincial Parliament
the applicant is compelled to deposit with the clerk
of tho house some $75 for printing expenses, be-
tore a bill of complaint enn he read. Alter that it
is referred to a standing committee of three ;b fore
they net further upou it another sum has to he de-
po-tiled to pay for sending for witnesses and wit-
iiesscs fees, and per diem allowance. For n di
vorce net, where there is but little trouble of proof,
from $40(1 to $S00 nre soon used up in this way.
If strongly contested, the snug sum of $2000 is nn
easy get off. This puts it nut of thc powes of peo
ple of indigent circumstances to obtain n divorce.
In Connecticut; however, thc expeuse of legislating
on the subject is paid by thc people. The same
law exists in England ns in Canada; none hut the
wealthy can dissolve a union, however pugnnnt
by crime. In this State, courts have tho jurisdic
tion; hence there arc many who repair to this side
from Canada to rid thom«clvcn of the burthens of
the tormentors.—Buffalo paper.
Mi'HDEROrs Attempt.—We were surprised, nny,
shocked, to learn that nn effort wiis made on
Saturday night last, to murder Mr. Isaac Henry,
1 ite President and Cnsliier of thc Branch oi the
State Bank, in this city f at his residenco on the
Sand Hills.
It appears that he had, about ten o’clock, re
paired to his hod chamber to retire for the night,
when the report of a gun was heard, two halls Iron
which pitted through the window and lodged in
the wall inside of the apurtment, without touching
him.
When wo contemplate thc extreme debility and
feebleness of Mr. II., from long ill licnitli, we can
not hut regurd thc nttcuipt to assassinate him ns
one of the greatest outrages that could ho perpe
trated. Indeed, we can but hope that it wa* (lie
result of accident on the purl of some one, n negro
perhaps, who was hnmlling tho weapon, und fears
to acknowledge it; for we do not suppose that Mr.
II. has nn enemy, iu his present condition.—
Augusta Chronicle <t Sentinel.
A College Battle.—From oil accounts it ap
pears that a sort of civil wnr is raging in Ronnoko
College, Va. A largo portion of the students hnvc
rebelled against the authorities of tho institution,
and havo succeeded in winning over to their cause
a portion of the faculty Tho difficulty originated
in the dismissal of a student for not attending re
citation. Tho students conceiving Hint an impor
tant principle was involved iu thin transaction—
that it in fact trenched upon thoir rights ns a body,
made the enusoof the excelled member thoir own,
nnd declured wnr aginst the faculty. As a conse
quence tho recitation hulls were deserted, and
everything like study ignored ; a procession formed
which paraded in disorder tho streets of finlom ; in
dignation meetings held in tho chapel; thu build
ing placarded witU "students’ righto" and sur-
mounted with a flag; inflammatory speeches made ;
pledges sealed never ngnin to attend Professor
Halsey’s recitations, and to hnvo tho dismissed
student reinstated nt any risk. At this stage of
tho proceedings a meeting of tho resident members
of thc Board was called, and negotiations opened
betwean tho belligerent parties. Tho truco result-
toi in a compromise which divided tho faculty, n
portion siding with tho students, whilst tho other,
embracing Prof. H. and tho professors of Modern
Languages and Natural Sciences, considering that
too much had been yielded to tho refractory stu
dent.", declined performing duty until tho whole
matter could ho referred to tho trustees. And
thus Iho bnttlo recommenced and with renewed
vigor. The »ludents being strengthened by tho
nllinni'o, were now confident of success, which no
doubt they cunsidcr complete upon learning that
the dissenting professors Imd withdrawn from tho
Faculty. For these facts we are iudobted to n cor
respondent of tho Lynchburg Virginian.

“To A T.”—A grocer, wishing to ho a little odd
in regard to a sign, enured two letters, T. T., to lie
jiiiiiiit-il on his shutter, the oue green and the other
bhu'k. Not long after, sodm* porson observing it,
inquired what it ineaut. “Why, you great goose,
you," said the trailer, " Us gran tea and Hack t cm."
Vegetable Growths of California.—An ag
ricultural show ha? just been held nt Sacramento,
at which tho productions of thc country were ex
hibited fur prizes. Tho show of animals was re
markable only ns given evidence of considerable
improvement in thc breed of horses since tbo Amer
icans have been in possession of thc State. Thu
exhibition of fruits nnd vegetables was really cu
rious—tho former from their variety and precocity
nnd the latter from their gigantic size. Pumpkins
weighing 120 pounds, beet-root 74 feet long, and
a stalk of Indian corn 34 feet high, were among
tho “monsters ’’ of the exhibition. Tho vegetables
of this country grow with a luxuriance unequalled
elsewhere, hut they arc deficient in flavor. It ap
pears that peach nnd pear trees frequently pro
duce n double crop in tbe same senson. The pro
duclivonsss of tho strawberry plant is also very
rcmarknhlo.
An Amfbicax Vtssri. Fired At.—Cupt. Nickerson, o

fnii Jacmel, reports that when half way between Cape
Tlbcron mid Capo Dnimn Marin, his vessel was fired nt
from tho xhore, the cannon hull passing only about ten
