Davish Sound Boss.—An important omission
occurred in the statement of Mr. Toombs, position
upon the question of repeal, in our issue of yester
day.. We stated that he maintained that a treaty
oonld only ba repealed according to its own terms,
and should have added— 1 "or by a new treaty.”
Jfr. Crumpton.
The London Morning Star, an organ of the
Manchester party says:—” We are told that at the
meeting of the Cabinet on Tuesday, the 22d, at
which Lord Clarendon was present, for the first
time since his return from Paris, tho answer to the
United States was agreed upon. On some of the
points connected with the Central American ques-
lion, the British Government are prepared to give
way, but they will not recall Mr. Crampton, and
they are prepared to communicate to the United
States that they are unanimous in their determina
tion to continue him in bis present position as
British Minister at Washington.”
Since the appointment of Mr. 8oule, a notorious
filibuster and the most odious man in America to
the Bpanish people, as our resident minister at their
court, it hardly becomes us to insist upon a rigid
observance of tha courtesies recognised as binding
In the diplomatio intercourse of nations. We may
be estopped by our own conduct from pleadingwhat
is strictly due us under the rules of enlightened
diplomacy, yet, oould we be relieved from this em
barrassment, there is something in tho action of
the British Cabinet above stated, that is worthy of
consideration by our people. That a nation should
speak of its determination to keep a minister as Us
representative at the capital of a foreign govern-
Bunt, when that government is opposed to hla
eontinuance in such a position, is not only a dis
courtesy, but an act of arrogant insolence that no
nation of proper spirit would fail promptly to re
sent. Should such language be used towards our
country by the authorities of England, wo shall
owe it to our honor both to repel the assumption,
and to refuse the recognition of her favorite.
This whole system of resident foreign ministers
Is a matter of simple courtesy between nations.
It involves no suoh thing as a right, but has grown
up as the offspring of friendly intercourse, and
under the suggestions of oomity and oonvenienoe.
Bach being its character, no nation oan be justi
fied in forcing upon another a minister that is ob
jectionable from any oause, even if it be a mere
prejudioe.
We are willing to overlook muoh from consid
erations of amity, but at the same time, it cannot
be'denied that Mr. Crampton has given ample
ground to our government for his dismissal, should
it think proper to exercise suoh a measure of se
verity towards him. His persistence in violating
onr laws altar the matter had been brought to his
notice by a protest of the government at Washing,
ton, affords complete justification for suoh a step.
As to whether it will be taken, under all the oir-
eumstanoes of the case, is a matter for our publio
authorities to determine in their wisdom. We at
toast hope that onr notion in the premises may not
be provoked by a spirit of bullylsm on the part of
the British government. L

The Defceekwey are boasting meat laatily that

when one wing doea it because Ufa a measure fa

it*te tantamount to aa abaolute prohibition of

of a vary wide diversity both of aantimaat and
feelings. Wo an for tha measure, cmrsalvas, and

Nebraska law should operate to his disappoint
ment, ha will aoon find some new weapon of war

such men for her rulers, she will have signed the
instrument of her bondage and sealed her fate as
equals in the confederacy of States.
We could publish a volume of extracts from
northern Democratic journals to show with what

canvass aa tha supporters of thia measure. For

Tka two Heuose ef Congress having agreed upon
tka Mtovrtng bill, amendatory of tbt bounty lantf
koto, it now,only requires tha signature of the Pres
ident of the United States to become a law:
AtrAorto amend the net la addition to certain
acts granting bounty laud to certain officers and
soldiers who have been engaged in the military
service of tho United States, approved March
third, eighteen hundred and fifty-five.
Be it enacted by the Senate and Route of Hep-
rceentafivrs tf tha United State* of Ameriea in
Congreee vmmbled, That In altoaaea where a cer
tificate or warrant for bounty land for any less
quantity than one hundred and sixty acrea shall
have bean issued Cp any officer or aoldiar, or to tho
widow or minor child or children of any officer or
soldier, under existing laws, tha evidence opon
which certificate or warrant waa tuned shall bo
received to establish the service of raoh offioer or
aoldiar In tho application of himself, or of hla
widow or minor ootid or children, for a certificate
or, warrant for so muoh land aa may bo required to
make up the full aum of one hundred and alxty
acres, on proof of the identity of such officer or
soldier, or In case of his death, of the marriage
and Identity of hla widow, or in ease of bar death,
-of the identity of hla minor child or children t
Provided, neeertkeleet, That if upon a review of
snob evidence tha Commissioner of Pensions shall
not bo satisfied that the former certificate or war
rant was properly granted, ba may require addi
tional evidence, as well of the term aa of the fact
of service.
Sec. 2. And be it farther enacted, That In all
cases,where a pension has been granted to any of
ficer or soldier, the evidence upon which rach pen-
alon waa granted shall be received to establish the
service of suoh offioer or soldier in his application
for bounty land under existing laws | and upon
proof of his identity as suoh pensioner, a certifi
cate or warrant may be issued to him for tha quan-
tity of land to which he shall be entitled; and in
oase of the death of each pensioned offioer or sol
dier, his widow shall be entitled to a certificate or
warrant for the same quantity of land to which
her husband would have been entitled if living,
upon proof that she is such widow, and in oase of
the death of such offioer or eoldier, leaving a mi
nor ohild or children and no widow, or where the
Southern men labor so mentally to build up and
bring into power in that State ? Wa ahail see.
The Lancaster Coos Democrat, a thorough going
Pierce organ, and acceptable aily of Southern De
mocracy, declared itself as follows, just previous
to the election t
“ If the question In regard to Kansas is not defi
nitely settled, it te eettled to the eatie/laetion of
every man of common sens* at the North. No one
believes that Kansas will be a free State. Rob-
inson and Lane, tbe chiefs of the free State
party there, say that fourteen-twentieths of the*
people of the Territory are In favor of prohlb-
Ring slavery ; others say that sixteen out of tweu-
ty are in fevor of a free State. It is difficult to
find a man who will say that he does not believe
Kansas will be free. Who will mako it so ? Will
it be the abolitionists ? No; tt will ba tbe people
of the Territory.”
”11 Kansas, with all tha efforts which have 4 been
made by tbe pro-slaverytsts, with all the advan-
teges which tbe adjoining State of Missouri, full
of slaves and wild with fear that the establishment
of freedom in Kansas will be fatal to slavery in
Missouri! if, with all these adventitious eiroum-
stances, Kansas is still to be free, tehat danger is
there that any Territory mill hereafter aek to be
received into the Union with elaveryl There is
nontb
” And therefore there is no need of an Abolition
or Republican party to prevent slavery extension.
Lot tho people alone, and they will in every ease
prevent its extension of their own free will and
accord. AH that ia necessary is to maintain their
right to decide this question, according to the Dem
ocratic doctrine of popular eovereigntg, and you
will have no more slave States) not one.”
We commend this language to tbe sober atten-
tion of southern men. It is boldly maintained—
and rightly so under tbe northern interpretation
—that the Nebraska bill is a death-blow to slavery,
and that tbe present position of the Democratic
party at the north is so thoroughly freetoil, that
tbe keeping up of tbe Black Republican organisa
tion Is entirely a work of supererogation—in other
words, that slavery will die out under Democracy
as effectually and as soon as it would under Blaok
Republicanism!
Such is the doctrine held by the present allies
of southern Democrats. No wonder the party is
compact and harmonious, when southern men thus
step forward and cement it with the betrayed rights
and honor of their own section. It may be har
mony, but to us it is the harmony of slaves bound,
manacled, Impotent, and bence contented, in tbe
handi of their oppressors. Such is the unholy
alliance called the Democratic party—the hideous
monster which southern Whigs and Americans are
doily called on and exhorted to fall down and
worship.
It will not do for southern editors to apologise
for their fellowship with these men by saying that
squatter sovereignty is not a practical question.—
Whether it be or not, does not alter the views of
those northern frecsoilera, or obange their hatred
of southern institutions. Their present position
and arguments are proofs conclusive that if they
believed tbo Nebraska bill inadequate for tbe ex
clusion of slavery from the Territories, they would
go for its repeal and tbo enactment of some meas
ure in its stead that would accomplish that pur.
pose.
But the doctrine of squatter sovereignty ie prac
tical | nay, vital in its tendencies, as we have al
ready, in a former issue of this journal, fully es
tablished. Wc have no intention to renew the dis
cussion at this time, but would simply state a oase
and commend it to the reflection of those southern
men who attach so little importance to the ques
tion : suppose ono of the 8tates of Moxioo, (where
-slavery docs not exist,) should be annexed and be-
come a territory of thfi American Union—how
could tbe institutions of the South ever be intro
duced within its borders if squatter sovereignty be
tbe law to control it? Will some ono answer the
question?
Mexico and the Holv See.—Diplomatio inter,
oourso has been suspendod between Mexico and
the Holy Sec, and the Mexican Minister, M. La-
raincar, has hauled down his flag and decamped
with bag and baggago. Oause unknown—but
supposed to be connected in some way or other
with the dootrine of the Immaculate Conception,
It Is somewhat curious, that about eight months
ago this dogma was nowhere received with such
. extravagant demonstrations of joy as in Mexico.
Almost every house waa illuminated. One little
circumstance, however, ought to bo noted In this
connection, and that is, that every house that re
mained in darkness was mulcted in the sum often
dollars—the owner footing the bill.
California Emigration.—There ia said to be
quite a tide of emigration setting from California to
tbe Gadsden Territory, attracted by its known
mineral resources, and particularly of copper.—
The developments of this metal, and in almost
pare state, with bituminous coal, are reported aa
very extraordinary.

dence, the Commiaaioner of Pensions shall not ba
latiifled that the pension was properly granted, he
may require additional evidence aa well of the
term aa of the fact of service.
Sec. 8. And be it farther enacted, That so much
of the third section of the ”aot In addition to cer
tain sots granting bounty land to certain officers
and soldiers who nnvo.becn ongaged in the mili
tary service of the Unfted States,” approved March
the third, eighteen hundred and fifty-five, as re

or tnav bo claimed, be, and tbe same is boreby, re
pealed, and parol evidence where no rooord evi
dence exists, may be admitted to prove the ser
vice performed, under auoh rules and regulations
the Commissioner of Pensioos may prescribe.
Bco. 4. And be it jurther enacted, That the
eighth section of tha not above mentioned, ap-
iroved tbe third day of March, in the yaar eight

The Imperial Stud.—A letter from Vienna to
ths Springfield Republican gives tha aqnexad da-
aeription of tha Imperial atablaa:
”1 have visited soma picture gallarlai, twenty
or thirty churches, a gnat many cablnota of natu
ral history, a few peaces, and, most interesting
of all, tbe Imperial stables, where six hundred no
ble ateeds are lodged most royally and tare sump
tuously every day, dutifully attended by three
hundred servants. The apartments of their equine
highnesses are at ones splendid and comfortable,
free from the scent of the stable and clean aa a
lady's parlor. Their blanket* are embroidered
with tha Imperial orest, their harnesses, saddles,
and all their equipments are of the most eostiy
kind and generally in excellent taste. In one
large hall are aome two hundred carriages, of
which the oheapestoosttwoor three thousand dollars,
and tbe coronation earring*, adorned with paint
ings by Rubens, and oovored with diamonds and
S id, wheels and all, cost about two hundred and
ty thousand dollars. Another baU filled with
State anddlas and trappings of various descriptions,
ie etill more magnificent. Bnt the animate them-
selves, unlike most oeoupants of palaces, tar out
shine all their exterior adornments. The bright,
fiery, intelligent eye; the proudly arehlng neck,
(the hone ie the only animal whom pride really
bocomes,) theform of perfect aymmetry, the doll-
cat© but powerful limbi, the grace of every move-
ment, the gentleneis and eonrtesy with wbiob they
reoetve every little attention beetowed upon them,
tbo high-bred noblenesa and dignity of their whole
deportment filled me with admiration. I would
rather have my choice from those aix hundred
horses than tbe imperial crown of tbe owner. The
carriage horses are all white, but those for riding
are of all colors, somo magnificently blaok.”
One Word More totFe Sooth.—We have
been frequently asked by Southern Democrats—
many of thorn delogates to the Cincinnati Con
vention—what course the National Democracy of
this State will pursue, “in the event of their dele
gation being rejected at Cincinnati, or both dole-
gates admitted ?” Neither event suggested ia
probable. The Convention dare not rejeet the Na

cannot bo admitted, became, if the Convention

Mr. BuonANAN.—Philadelphia, May 9th.—Mr.
Buohanan was notified of his nomination for tbo
Presidency by the Pennsylvania Stato Democratic
Convention, on yesterday, at Lancaster, by a com-

honor, and endoriod tho resolutions adopted by
the said Convention. The Kansas Nebraska not,
bo said, would, if carried into execution, with an
inflexibility and porsoveranco precluding aU hope
of a change, and yot in a kindly spirit, ere long,
ized form, marched more than twenty miles to the
dace where they were mustered into'the service’of
be United States, or were discharged more than
twenty miles from the place where suoh company,
battalion,or regiment, was organised; luall such
cases, in computing the length of aervlce of tbe
officers and soldiers of any snob company,battalion,
or regiment, there ehall be allowed one day for
every twenty mllea from the place whore the com
pany, battalion, or regiment was organised, to tho
place where the samo was mustered into the ser
vice of tbe United States ; and also, one day for
every twenty miles from the plnco where suoh com
pany, battalion, or regiment was discharged to the
place where it was organised, and from whence it
marched to enter the service : Provided, Thatsuch

general officer of the United States commanding an
army or department, ortho chief executive officer
of tho Stato or Territory by which such company,

The Napoleon Correspondence.—It will bo
recollected that Louis Napoleon, some tirno ago,
charged a commission with tbe task of collecting
all tbo correspondence and papera of bii uncle,
Napoleon the First. Tbe commission are hard at
work, and have already oomo into possession of
more matter than would fill one hundred volumes
in quarto. It Is said that the publication of these
papers will throw an entirely new light upon the
character and aime of tbe first Napoleon. A Parle
lettor-writer states that Thiers, the historian, lately
said, speaking of this immense correspondence:
” It will oblige mo to add twelve volumes of post
script to my history.”
Locomotive Whistle.—Tho Scientific Ameri
can states that Mr. James Harrison, formerly a
resident of Jamostown, Chautauqua county, N. Y.,
has recently invented and patented an important
improvement upon tho locomotive whistle. The
apparatus is an autoinatio one, and is so contrived
that it blows itself at any desired point along the
road. The certainty of its performance is attained
by tho arrangement of adjustable stops, so con-
trived as to come in contact with and raise tbo
valve of tho whistle. Tho stops ore placed upon

Dear Sir: Your loiter of tho 25th iniL, reached
me to-doy. I am in tho midst of hurried prepar
ations for a long journey, and have not time to. wheels of tbe engine,
answer it as I wish. I am going to Missouri and _ —^ . „ _ ,

Ipgtop j from one of tho Ult Domed pl.ee. I will Mny 9—Iotolllgraco bo. hoop rccelved hcte of a
write you at length.
In the meantime I sincerely hope you will not.
commit yourself against tbo American party. I.
thought tbo nominations at Philadelphia prema- .
ture, and have not been surprised at the expres
sion of dissatisfaction it has called forth; still I do
not seo bow a remedy can be applied that will not
bo worse than the evil. I try to look at it praefi-
cally. The three prominent candidates of the Anti-
Americans are Buchanan, Doaglas and Pierco.—
Buohanan is more deeply attached to tbe prospec
tive principlo than Fillmore. Dougins is fully com
mitted to the river, harbor and road appropria
tions,und Piorco is committed to everything and
will prove true to nothing. Neither of tho three
comes up to tny standard of wbat a Democrat
ought to he. Neither oan be trusted, by tho South,
an hour after they have secured our votes. All of
them will bo certain to favor measures from which
the North will reap the bonefits while we pay tho
taxes,andal) ofthemwIUbocertaio^to stab uswhile
trofessing tbe most profound regard for our rights.
n tho vory nature of things a party whloh relies
upon foreign voters for success must enunciate
irinoiples, and advocate measures hostile to the
ustttution of slavery. The foreign baek driver,
drayman, ditcher or hod-carrier has no dosire to
compete for bis wages with the negro. Even the
Irian chambermaid looks with jealously upon tho
employment of negro girls in our hotels. There is a
wide—an almost universal repugnancy to a domestio
tail to see reduces so
fonrful accident, which occurred on Wednesday
evening, on tho Mississippi and Missouri Railroad,
near Davenport, Iowa.
Tbe express train from Iowa city ran off tho
track, whilo going at a rapid rate, causing terrible
destruction.
Twelve persons are said to have been killed and
a great many others wounded.
Tho entire train, consisting of the locomotive,
four pnssongor cars and a baggage oar, were de
molished.
The scene is said to have been an awful one.
None of the names of the victims have reached
The Kendall Case in New Orleans.—Now

oian ought to look for the seeds of principles,
which, sooner or later, control tho destinies of a
nation. Great events work their way up, not
down. AU revolutions begin among the masses.
Wilbcrforco himself only gave voice to a sentiment
wbioh existed before his birth. Tbo Parliament
of England would hnve abolished slavery if he
had never lived. The harangues of a demagoguo
are harmless if thoro is no prejudice for him to di
rect—no eentiment in tho hearts of tho laboring
classes wbioh responds to his appeals. With none
but an American people to appen] to, who do not
look upon the slave as a rival whose labor inter
feres with the sustenance of their own families, all
tbe political preachers and orators in tho land
oould never got up a slavo agitation to a dangerous
height. It is a Southern man, horn upon the soil
of tbo South, linked to it by a thousand ties, at
tached to slavery by a domestio relation, and be
lieving in my soul that it is best for both races,
that I cherish most ardently tha American cause.
Whntever host promotes that cause will be certain
to receive my support. I oannot hope to have
everything exactly as I wish, and as a practical
man, I mean to take tho best I oan got. At Phil-
adoipbia, as at all other Conventions, things were
dono of whloh I do not approve, but I predict tho
Cincinnati Convention will do muoh worse in re
gard to a platform, and that tbe nominees will be
a hundred-fold more objeotionable. Oliver Grom-
woU was wont to say “nits will bo lice,” and a
vile set of traffickers for foreign votes must, of
necessity, give us a trafficker like themselves for a
candidate.

ROUND HILL
Water-Cure & Motorpathic
INSTITUTE,
AT NORTHAMPTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
I N all the local advantages which render attractive an
institution fof invalids, and a summer retreat for
others, seeking relaxation and pleasure, this stands alone
and unrivallud. For the gratification of rural tastes and
real enjoyment, it poweawa many advantages over most
“watering places." Jenny Lind, after a three months
etay.called it tho “ Paradleoof America." Families from
tho South, find in it a lovely, and in every respect desir
able summer residence. Parents, anxious thattheir chil
dren should poisees good constitutions on entering youth
or adult age, wouidfind that a few months residence In
the bracing mountain air of Round Hill, with Ite sys
tematic, invigorating exercises, would put them in pos
session of greatly ennaucod powers of endurance, and
their whole tifo would be likely to be more energetic,
from the impetus thus given to physical development.
Dr. H. Hnletcd, the proprietor, continue# to pay par
ticular attention to Women’s diseases and weaknesses.
Tho success which has attended his method of treating
such copiplatnt* by bts system of Motorpatby has given
him a most extended practice. This system is founded
on new pathological principles, and by It, permanent
cures are effected with an ease and certainty heretofore
unattained. He also devotes himself to the cars of the
various kinds ofehronio diseases. .Havingbeen for twen
ty years at the head of a Hydropathic Institution, and
within that time having treated many thousands of tb*
most complicated cases, he has had an opportunity which
few have poesessed of acquiring skill In the control of
protracted and difficult complaints.
