New Orleans yesterday. From the tone of'the Know Nothing press, and from the conversation of i. u of respectability who belong to the Know V .thing party, we were in hopes that the election ! ■ul<l have passed olf in a peaceable and orderly natiuer. We, in common with most of Democrats were much disappointed. The paid and salaried bullies of the Know Xoth :ig party, armed to the teeth, began earlv in the ( morning going in gangs of twenties and thirties h nt one precinct to au..tlu*r_ In some instances •>- many as ten carriage loads were counted in one j ' I'tad. W hero they found themselves in the com plete and undisputed possession of the polls thev j passed un to another prescind -where thev dill , n .t they left just as many of their ruftiaulv band ; they thought necessary. Whenever a naturalized citizen offered to vote, ' e> eiy possible impediineut was thrown in the wav, i an.l in repeated instances as the oath was being I tendered to voters they were seized by the collur or the hair, drugged awav from the polls, beaten ; j kicked and otherwise insulted. There was no . safety for imv Democrat at more than half the polls ! at ten o’eloefc, A. M. At twelve o’clock, there was not a single precinct which was not in full posses- : of Know Nothing bullies. Alter two o’clock it is doubtful whether there were fen Democratic * voles polled ill the entire city. For a Democrat to ! I offer to vote after that hour would have been to 1 put his life in useless jeopardy. I lie Democratic ticket stands at most of the 1 j.ivciu. Is were destroyed by radians as often as * they were set up, and many of the precincts ull : ! tiie Doinoeraiie tickets were stolen. \t the l.leveuth Preeiuct, front the best reports we ■ j . ..11,1 gat tier, 1111 assault was made upon Mr. Joseph I noi- and Mr. Bernard Avegno, when a Sicilian, 1 nun unknown, armed with acullas, interfered in 1 'i ir defence. Mr. Trepaguier, Clerk of the First ’ 1 ilistriet Court, arrived at this moment, seized the , > -i ill ail and threw him down, hut he iustuutlv * to his feet, grappled Trepaguier around the ' when they toil together the Sicilian stale j * ;i.j iittii as thev tell. I’ltev arose ami grap- I, I again, and fell in the same manner, the 1, 11| 0ll repealing his thrusts until lie had slabbed s Ti. paguier four or live times. Meantime several shots from revolvers were I tli.' Sicilian, some four or live of which ' effect upon Trepaguier. After the latter < i. filially fallen, it is supposed mortallv wounded, \ .1. the Steiliau nourished his cutlass around, and having driven hack the crowd for a few feet, lie .oi away bleeding from many wounds, and suc ■•■l.-d in making his escape. c Whether the Sicilian ran in that direction or i net tiie Know Nothing crowd rushed down on the t Marine Hotel, oil the Ijeveo opposite to the i .wer Market. They went to the door of a room *’ in the second story, which was locked, burst it in ml killed two men, supposed to In 1 Sicilians bv t heeling and stabbing. The cuts and stabs on y. , el' the bodies were nearly a hundred in mini „ 1 In* Sicilians badnetlell llie bouse during tl. ■ ineriiing. It was an aei of mere brutal in- v sane fury the most horrible that lias ever oe- > . ined in this city. • : f \hoiit one o’clock a large gang of Know Noth ings, mil less than seventy-live in number, came hack to the Eleventh Precinct. Thev found the j. .ils closed, and when they learned how the voting * i. el been up to tli.-time of the affray, they raised ti . loud shout. One of the gang then inouiiled a | table, and made a short harangue. Another veil from the crowd t. A minute afterwards nil old frenchman, whose name we did tint learn, wlm was standing quietly by, was struck several times n mice with the leg of a table, once with a large t! hickory cane, and at last was knocked down with j a piece of plank about eight feet long, in the hands of a young man of about twentv-two or three. lie was insensible, and was unable to ri i old tor a long time aft -wards. After this deed of chivalry, the Knights of tint j I.intern raised the cry "For the Sixili Ward!” and tiled off in about the same number with which . they had come. But we are wearv ol chronicling these acts of * assassination, brutality and outrage. Armed and I drunken mobs had possession of the polls. There | was in reality no election at all. I „ About one o’clock Mayor Lewis published the ]. following proclamation : i j- M woitALTV of New Orlkvns, I | c Oily llall, June 2,1 Son. t , /.’> th, eULt'nx of .V. ir OrH.ins; j | W/taeax, liavtttg rcceiveil authentic report from i j| many of the precincts of the city, that hands of \ ~ lawless men have taken possession of the several I oils and are preventing, bv violence and intimi- , ], dation, peaceful citizens from exercising the elec- „ toral franchise; and the police being completely 1 1 disorganized, from resignations and refusal to do ; e dutv.

People will Fruxisn Him with i Hall. Tli. following prophetic paragraph appeared in tno New 1 ork -loarnal of Cotninerce ot the issue of April 2*’>: “The Know Nothing Councils of Philadelphia havet . fused the use of the Hall of Independence fa the reception of the Hon. James Buchanan. Nevermind; the people will furnish him a hall, aft.-r the 4th of March next, which will he ‘siitli ci"tit lor all practical purposes.’ ” The Cincinnati Tim, - Know Nothing) explains that Mr. l-iLLMoiit: signed the fugitive slave law, not b.-catis.- lie approved it, but because the Whig party was opposed to vetoes. It savs : ” 1 he simple tact that Millard Fillmore signed the fugitive slave law is no proof that he is in fa vor ol slavery, however strongly it may he urged against him hv Abolitionism or its advocates. Will those who endeavor to construe that act to his disadvantage remember the fact, that m the election by which he was declared President of this Union. the one man veto power was a main issue, and in repudiation of that power he was chosen. Tiie fugitive slave law came before him for bis signature after it had passed both houses oi t'ongros, bearing by such passage the sanction of the will of a majority of the people of the Knifed Stales bv their representation, and upon no other . rounds'than its constitutionality could he have withheld bis signature. It was signed, and the fact that lie affixed bis name to it as President ol die Kuion, is no more proof of pro-slavery pro clivity than that he entertains Abolition senti ments. As an opponent of the one man vetop.nv et, an issue in Ins election, and made so by the party to whom be owed his election, be could not do otherwise, so long us the sanctity of the Con stitution was not infringed upon Black Kepublieau Estimates. The New Turk Tribune, in its estimates of the result of the November elections for President, does not seem to regard Mr. Fillmore's prospects at all, unless he considers him the available candi date for the anti-Nebraska States. It is well, at all times, to know the views of the opponents of the Democratic party. When the result of the campaign is known it is very probable the Black Republicans and north ern Know Nothings will exclaim, with as much wonder as the Xetherland minister, “mvc*odness vat a peoples!” The following, from the New York Tribune, the leading organ of the Black Republicans, makes a calculation of the chances of success. We give it j that our readers ntay understand the expectations of our most formidable opponents : “ 1 11 * Brospscts of the Presidential Campaign. In our view, the selection of candidates is an j eminently practical business. We must not begin j by imagining that the battle is won, mad teat wc have only now to distribute atid rightly apportion ! " the spoil of victory.” Wc must choose men who will attract to our ranks voters who are not til , ready with us, and not repel auv who are. We s have to consider that, of the two hundred and ninety-six Electoral votes, a full third will be : against us any how, and that of all that remains wo must carry three-fourths, or be beaten. Let us take a look at the figures : ; Anti-Nebraska. Nebraska. States. Elec. Votes. States. Elec. Votes. Maine 8 1 Maryland 8 New Hampshire 5 j Virginia 15 Massachusetts 12 I North Carolina 10 Rhode Island 4 South Carolina 8 Connecticut 6 j Georgia W Vermont f, i Alabama 9 New York 35 Mississippi 7 Ohio 23 Florida 8 Michigan 0 Kentucky 12 Wisconsin 3 j Tennessee 12 j Arkansas 4 I Texas 4 Total 114 I Total 108 DUBIOUS. Now Jersey 7 j Indiana 13. Pennsylvania 27 j Illinois 11 Delaware SI California 4 Missouri 8 Total 74 “This Seems to us us favorable an estimate ns existing facts will warrant—far more than an op ponent could be expected to concede. We believe there is this day an anti-Douglas majority in caclat Ot the States we have placed in the anti-Nebraska column, provided it can be concentrated and call ed out; but it will not bear division. We shall then need thirty-live electoral votes from the doubt ful list, that is to say, we need the votes of Penn sylvania and Indiana (40) or Pennsylvania and Il linois ior those of New Jersey, Indiana, Illi nois and ( 'aliloiuia (85) or those of Delaware, In diana. Illinois and Missouri (3ti) to elect. If we eauiiot carry, with hardly an exception, the States set down in our first column, we are beaten of course. If we can carry them, we must select candidates who can carry thirty-live votes out of the doubtful list. The Oldest Delegate.—A New York paper says : “ Among the delegates from New York to Cincinnati is Major tlem-ral S. t!. Hathaway, of Courllund county, one'of the oldest delegates to the (invention, being in his seventy-seventh year. He voted for Jefferson. From 1 i vit. The mail from Great Salt Lake city, arrived at St. Louis on the 2t'dh tilt., bring ing papers to the -Ji'.lh of March. The Convention to form a Slate Constitution was making rapid progress. The Convention met on the 17th ot March, and on the 24th, the special committee unanimously reported the “Constitution of the State of Deseret.” The St. Louis Refoihliran, in giving this news, remarks: “The State of Deseret will have her Senators and Representatives knock ing at the doors of Congress for admission, before the close of the present Session. Hopelessly Deranged.- We regret (says the Louisville Coir'or,) to leant from a gentleman from Barren county, that the lion. Jamks]G. II vkdv, Lieutenant-Governor of the State, is deranged, or rather has sunk into a state of almost mental im becility. His memory is entirely gone, and his mind is hopelessly shattered. His physicians, think he will not recover. Mr. llvnnvltas long been in bad beaub. During the session of the Legislature the past winter be was confined to bis room a large portion of the time. , The Democratic National Platform. In another part of the paper will he found the Democratic platform complete, as adopted bv the Convention on the third day. The Cincinnati /■,',o/nir, r of las! Thursday’s issue says: “The representatives of the Democratic parly, now assembled in convention in this city, have laid down a most glorious and substantial plat- 1 form sound and national in every purl. It is ; clear and explicit in its phraseology, and relates to every question now at issue before the people. Both the general principles of government and the administrative details that are foreshadow < ed will meet the cordial approbation of the partv t and the country ; for they are based upon and ad- ( here strictly to the Constitution. With a bold ness, courage, and honesty characteristic of the Democratic organization, there is no subterfuge or i concealment attempted, hut ils creed is embla- i zoned upon r.s banner and displayed before the , people. “The convention reaffirms the old and time-hon ored resolutions of the party, laid down in IS-10, and adopted at every subsequent convention, i They have also incorporated in it a distinct ex- ] presaion of their sentiments in regard to the new issues that have been raised in recent years. (!p- ' oil the subjects of Know Xotbingism and slavcrv, particularly, the sentiments of the party are most i admirably and felicitously expressed, and their I i reading was frequently interrupted in the Conven tion bv enthusiastic acclamations. Thev treat evorv point in controversy, and give utterance, in the most forcible manner, to the well-understood Democratic ideas respecting those exciting topics. They announce the firm determination of the Dem ocratic partv to maintain inviolate the equal rights | of the States, and to recognize the equal rights ot the citizens, and to frown upon all organizations, secret or open, which make distinctions of birth, j creed, or section in their government or policy. “It is with pride and pleasure that we call the ■ attention of the reader to the noble series of reso lutions, referring to domestic affairs, which were adopted bv a unanimous vote. Every delegate in the Convention, and every State in the Union save New York, ( whose contested-election ease had not been acted upon,} responded aye to these resolu tions. New A'ork will undoubtedly come in aye when her representation is full, and thus complete : the list. What a glorious testimonial this to the i nationality of the Democratic party! No other 1 organization can unite half as many States in fa ! vor of its administrative policy. The hearty . cheering, and the applause which greeted the adoption of the whole platform, showed that our organization never before was more thoroughly united upon its principles, and never spoke in u more unanimous manner to the country. This unanimity, where the enemy expected division, will have a great effect upon the nation, contrast ! 43 ’• docs, with the bickerings and troubles of ! the opposition. ) i “ the Democratic Representatives from the North, the South, the East, and the West, all lia ! ternize like a band of brothers, and upon their j platlorm the whole Union can stand in confidence that the rights of every section and of all im-n are 1 equally secured by it. Our principles are de ‘ dared, and nothing remains for the Convention hut to find standard-bearers, whose success will ( give practical effect to them in the coming canvass. , That duty discharged, as it will be in a creditable | manner, and we are sure that the nation, with a j unanimity unparalleled, will pronounce in our fa ' vor, and overwhelm the bigoted sectional factions opposed to us with u well-merited and annihilatin'- defeat.” A' vluk Reckued. —The sufferer from a cough or > cold, or the confirmed consumptive even, gets full : value for his outlay, in buying a bottle of the Wild Clierrv Balsam.

Mr. Breckenridge comes from a family distin guished for talent. His grandfather, Hon. John Breckenridge, was elected to the United States Senate in Kentucky in 1801. Something of his standing in his day, may be iuferred from the ftict, that in 1804, in the party caucus, at Washing ton, which nominated Mr. Jefferson for the Presi idency, he received twenty votesforthat high office. In 1 bos he was appointed by Mr. Jefferson, Attorney General, which appointment was confirmed and accepted. Between him and Mr. Jefferson the most intimate friendship subsisted. His brilliant career was cut short by death, in tho prime of his life, before the expiration of the Presidential term. Air. Breckenridge’s father was the lion. Jos. Cabell Brackenridge, eldest son of the preceding, who died in 1524, when perhaps, younger than bis distinguished sou at this time. But in his brief hto he highly distinguished himself for his talents and his virtues. He was successively Speaker of the House ol Representatives and Secretary of State in Kentucky. He was an active elder in the Presbyterian Church, and as eminent for his piety a3 for his ability. He married a daughter of Dr. Samuel Stanhope Smith, President of Princeton College, New Jersey, who yet survives him. His oldest brother, Dr. John Breckenridge, was re garded as one of the most amicable of men and one ot the most eloquent of American preachers. Ilis surviving brothers. Rev. Dr. Robert J. Breck enridge, of Danville, and Rev. Dr. Win. Breek euridge, of Louisville, Kentucky, are among the first men of the cottnwv and oi’ the age. Their sister was married to Gen. Peter B. Porter, Secre tary of War under Gen. Jackson. Several of the younger members of the family are distinguished tor their ability and will soon be known to Lite country. Mr. Breckenridge was born about the year 1821; lie graduated with distinction in 1838, at Ceutre- College, Kentucky, then and still under the Presi dency of his brother-in-law, Rev. Dr. John C. Young ; and Is now about thirty-four or thirty-five years of age. He has no brothers. In the com mencement of his professional life he went to the northwest, but soon returned and engaged in the practice of law in Lcxingtou. In lt>47, he went to Mexico as Major in a regiment raised under the second call upon Kentucky for troops, which ar rived too late to participate in the struggles of the field. His professional services, however, as coun sel for Gen. Pillow in the trial in Court Martial, upon charges preferred by Gen. Scott, gave bun a distinction which he had no opportunity to win on the field. Upon the close of the war, he returned to his practice in Lexington. In 1851 he became a candidate for Congress in the Ashland district, so long represented by Mr. Clay, in which he lived, ami was elected over his competitor, Gen. Leslie Combs. In 1858, he was re-elected over Ex-Gov ernor Letcher. While a member of the House he was appointed by the President Minister to Spain, but declined the service. At the expiration of his second term, lie resumed the practice of his pro fession. Mr. Breckenndge’s private character (it is be lieved by the writer) is perfectly untarnished, and his life without the blemish of the vices which cleave so much to many of our public men. He is married and bus an interesting family about him. His person is highly preposessingand will ever mark liim as an honorable, high-toned gentleman, lie has much decision and dignity is unassuming, yet of impressive presence; and however his poli tical friends and opponents may differ in the esti mate of his ability, as compared with his great kinsman or other statesmen, none will question that he has the character and talent that will com mand respect wherever he is placed. Principles, not Men.— The conclusion of the leading editorial article in the Nashville Ur,ion of Tuesday last, is as follows ; “One thing we predict with the most perfect certainty all the bickerings they may have will be over men and not over principUe. They will be a 'mil on the question of a platform. Democracy is the same everywhere. Its nationality will se cure it against any internal feuds upon all the im portant questions of principle. And therein con sists its strength and its pride the safety and stability of the government. Every member of the (’incinnati Convention might turn Black Re publican to-morrow, and the Democratic party would still remain intaet. Its foundation is based upon the great cardinal doctrines of civil and reli gious liberty, a strict construction of the Constitu tion, and the sovereignty of the States. Men are, therefore, but ils advocates, not its vital part.” (X)MMERCIA I 7. liiver News. The river is in good boating order, and rising slowlv.

The Collins steamers are named after oceans and seas, and the Cunardors after countries. Kaimioad Matters in Mississippi.—The Jackson Flay of the Union, of the 27th ult., lias the follow ing article on railroad matters. It will no doubt be interesting to our readers: We learn from Mr. Cunningham, the efficient Superintendent id the V icksburg road, that three hundred and fifty tons of iron lor the Mississippi Central railroad has been landed at Vicksburg, and will be brought out this week. The track laving on their line from Canton North will be commenced as soon as the Canton road is open to convey the iron. Ihe track was laid on Saturday to within hall a mile ot Canton, and will be com pleted in a week or ten days for the regular pas sage ot the Height, and passenger ears. 1 lie Mobile railroad is now completed toScoober, in Kemper county, one hundred and sixty-seven miles, whither the cars make daily trips. It is thought the line will be opened to Columbus ;J>y the branch road; by the end of the year. The Mississippi and Tennessee road now makes daily trips from Memphis to Hernando, and is pro gressing finely. The Central is open to Holly Springs, and also progressing southward. Maj. Roach, the energetic and efficient President' of iln' southern road, is on a trip to Washington and the northern cities, to promote the interests of that company. Lust, but riot least, we learn that the whole line from Jackson to Osyka is under contract, and the work will hi* pushed to completion. A continuous line tiom New Orleans to Canton, thence bv the ' Central to Memphis, thence to Louisville, with j connections to < 'harleston, Nashville, and almost I everywhere else, is among the early certainties, ! and will give a fresh impetus to the prosperity of all tliis section of country. Tin: Hemocuatk Nominvtiov. We spoke, on Saturday last, of Mr. Buchanan's nomination for the Presidency by the Hemoeratie Convention, lie was not our first choice ; but this, more from the position of the prominent candidates in reference to pending issues, than from nnv objection to him self with reference to general polities. We have accepted his nomination with a full confidence that he will administer the Government in good ; faith towards all sections of the Union. And he j is not the less i 'Commended to us bv his conser vatism and well known moderation of character, qualities that are not likely to lead him to foster i and encourage the too prevalent disposition of our people io interfere, by wild adventure, with j the a flairs of other nations. The principal nomi- ! nation of the Convention, therefore, is one with i which we may well be satisfied; for we did not - allow ourselves, beforehand, to believe that either i one of the three prominent candidates could sc- j cure sufficient strength in that body to command j ils-vote. eVi.irhs/'iH SHU MMNG N M\VS.

IS article wis compare fuvora- B blv with any of like character. in the known world. I find that by putting it in the form [■jßfjP of a Soap it gives it a decided advan 11*9? tago over any Balm, Salve, Liniment, or Ointment that can be made for the cure of ihs eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir tues from being impaired bv age or climate, and renders it very convenient for use. Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara tion injurious to the patient. This article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Files, Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Son- Eves, Bone Eelons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac., extract scurf and dandruff front the head, thereby preventing premature baldness. It is also one of the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a superior dentritiec to the teeth. For shaving soap, it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and curing such sores as may he on the face. In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and particular old sores, this soap litis proved a balm indeed, by its wonderful healing powers. I can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is only requisite to prove its efficacy us above stated, and wishing to avoid everything like httmbuggery, l leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not doubting they will then declare this to be the tie plus ultra of the age in the healing art.
