A Question OF yeracity.

It may be remembered (says the New York Com
mercial Adverliser) that Lord Palmerston, some
time ago, on the floor of the House Of Commons
declared that the assumption of responsibility for
the attack upon the Caroline, had been officially
made known TO the Government of the United
States, through Mr.. Stevenson, the United States
Minister at the Court Of st. James. In reference
to this declaration the London Times makes the
following statement:
I'VE are anxious to enforce the expediency Of
getting at the tzuth of rumor which has been ac-
credited in the best informed circles, and of which
we see no reason to doubt the truth--namely, that
within day or two after Lord Palmerston assured
the House Of Commons that he had, three years
ago informed Mr.. Stevenson Of the British Govern
ment having sanctioned the obstruction Of the Car
oline, the American Minister, Mr.. Stevenson, ad.
dressed himself by note words, to the British
Foreign Secretary, positivy alleging that his Lord
ship had stated what not the fact for that the
American Government had never yet had such
a communication from any official functonary OF
Great Britain. The whole corps dip!Onatigue now
in London have, we understand, been fully appnsed
of this matter, which reflects gravey upon the char
ac,er Of British Secretary of State.

The Paixhan Bomb.

The invention Of this terrible engine of destruction
is likely 10 cause complete revolution in the modes
of naval warfare The Pairhai bomb is throws
horizontally and with as much certainty as n solid
sho, fiom ihirty.two pcunder. The destructive
effects of these bombs are described with fearful
mmueness of detail, which leaves the impression
on the mind that nothing is told which has not been
done and witnessed. when thrown horizontally
they will crush, strike to peices and tear open the
side Of vessel, with terrible shock. 'if they
remain iu the side" says the account, "their exPio
sion, acting like mine, will open large breaches,
the irregular fractures of which, extending below the
water line, will make passage through which the
water will rush in, as though dyke were sudden.
ly broken. IL bomb should enter a mast, It will
oveurn IT, together with its yards, top and rigging.
Should the bombs pass entirely through the ships
side, then they will produce their effect between
decks in the midst fthe combatants, the r,ilicry
and munitions; they will scatter around showers Of
iron, and insepporable volumes Of smoke and flame;
they will completely destroy a fabrick of wood
much more easily than that Of stone; they will rip
up the deck, set every thing on Ere, and cause
dreadful ravages every where"
Some of these bombs are of one hundred ani IF.
1 iy and two hundred pounds weight. In addition tc
their explosive terrcrs, they charged also with
certain composition, which, upon bursting gives
forth such noisome and even poisonous smell, q.
to render ship uninhabitable.
! In the British and French navics the Paixhar
bomb has been for some time in use. It's powerful
efficacy was displayed at st. Juan de Ulloa, Bey
rout, and at st. Jean d'Acfe. The new ships il
the British navy include. as a permanent portion o
their armament, numbet Of bomb cannon adapte,
to this new and destructive missile. few of ou
national ships, we believe, have been provided wit,
Paixan bomb-but the use of it has not yet be
come so general in our navy as is desirable.

A Dark Picture.

a correspondent of the N. Y. Express, on the ist
Of Jan. last, commenced keeping a record Of the
murders and suicides chrolcled in the newspapers
which he was accustomed TO read, and the result
is as follows;
From that date to the first Of April, there have
been "A murders and 63 suicides. OF these, 10
to sudden death by intemperance; l2 by taking
laudanum, and other poisons; by downing, and
s by shooting themselves.
Ofthe murders, 6 were in New York, in Ohio,
A in Georgia, in n. Orleans, in Vermont, in
New jersey, in Kentucky, in Arkansas.
OF suicides, 32 were in New York, in Penn
sylvanis, in Massachusetts,, in New Orleans, 2
in Connecticut, l in Maine, in Kentucky, in s..
Carolina, 10 Wisconsin, in Rhode Island, in
Virginia.
IN is remarked that this melancholy list is far from

The Revenue and Relief Bill.

at will be seen by reference to our Legislative
proceedings, that this important, bill is now in the
hands Of a Committee of Conference, who have
control not only over the matters in dispute, but
over the entire biiL The committee Of tire two
Houses composing the conference all selected
all able and judicous men and we have hope
that in the shortest time practicable such compro-
mise will be effected by them will meet with the
sanction of majority Of both Houses, and become
law. The report of this conference is Of the ut
most importance as it will only remain for the two
Houses either to reject or adopt, toto, and with
out amendment, whatever they shall agree to report
TO their respective Houses If their report he agreed
to, the Bill is passedif not agreed to, the whole Bill
is lost. The Committee will probably be ready to
repor, tomorrow, and the time of the final sjourn-
ment Of the Legislature may be regarded as nearly
at hand"
The above is from the Harrisburg Daily Chron~
Gle. The bill we presume acted on yesterday
and is therefore by this time in the hands of the
Governor. What he will DO it is difficult to say.
The truth is, the Governor and Legislature are both
surrounded with difficulties political as well as nan-
cal, and that the two bodies should harmonze, was
hardly to be expected. In the meanwhile the coun-
try must suffer-

New Mode of EIecting President,

In order to obvate the strife and excitement al
tending the election of chief magistrate every four
years. various plans have been suggested An
amendment to the constitution offered about
ten years since by Mr.. IIhouse, then member
of the U. s. Senate from Connecticut, with view
to effect such change. The amendment was sub
stan,iaiy as follows;
Each Senator, belonging TO the class whose
term of service will frs, expire, shall, in the alpha
betcai order of their names draw ivory ball from
a box containing as many balls as there are Sena-
tors of that class, one OF which to lie coored, the
others white; the Senator drawing the coiored ball
TO be the President for term Of two years. and the
drawing to be superintended by committee of the
House of Representatives"
Wm II Crawford and Judge Marshall, both gave
their opinions not wholly unfavorable to such a
change, in letters which have been published Judge
Marshall seems to think that the President would be
substantially chosen by the people. The people,
however, never would sanction such mode. Per-
are not unrequently elected Senators hy caucusing
in the legislature who never could receive the suf.
fages of the majority of the people Such has been
the case more than once in Pennsy lvania, and we
presume in other states.

II will be recollected that some months ago, four of
packe, ships saved each the crew of British
sci in distress. They were the Rhone, Captain
Walton; Stephen Whitney, Captain Thomson; Co
lumbus, Captain Croppe5 and Sheridan, Captain
De Peyster. Yesterday, Mr. Buchanan, the British
Consul, addressed to these commanders the follow
ing extract of letter-"I am directed by Lord
Pslmerston to desire you to express to the COM
manders of these vessels the thanks of her Majesty
Government, for their praiswor,hy conduct, and for
the assistance which they rendered on the same oc-
casions and you will state to these commanders lha,
her Msjestys Government intends to shew its sense
of their services, by sending to each Of them gold
