We had the pleasure one evening last
week Of seeing Morse's Magnetic ieie-
graph in full operation, at the Court
House in this Borough. 1t was exhibi-
ted by DIR. BoYNToN, who delivered sew
eral interesting lectures upon electricity,
and its application to various purposes,
and whose familiarity with the subject,
both in its general principles and its de-
tails. enables him to present it in the clear
est light to an audience. The Magnetic
Telegraph is undoubtedly the greatest
.swonder of the age," and next to it, per-
haps, is Colts Submarine Battery, the
principles of which DIR. Boynton also
clearly and fully explained.

Eleven Days Later from Europe.

An Extra from the office of the Balti-
more Sun puts US in possession OF brief
view of the news received by the steam
ship GREAT WESTERN at New York.
and thence transmitted by the Magnetic
Telegrph.
Intelligence OF the existing war be-
tween the United States and Mexico ar
rived in England by the Cambria on the
2sth ullmo. and produced much sensa-
ton. Considerable public sympathy
was manifested in behalf of Mexico as
the weaker party.
The Corn bill has passed a second rea-
ding in the House Of Lords by majority
Of Al.
The cotton market was quiet, and but
little doing. The corn market was rath-
er depressed, with slow sales to retail
buyers.
The Queen, on the 23d ultimo present
ed her people with another Princess
The mother and daughter were both do

On the 25th of May Prince LOUIS
BoNApARrE succeeded i'll effecting his
escape IRON the fortress of Ham, after a
close Imprisonment of some years. Hav-
ing assumed the disguise of a workman,
he contrived to elude the vigilance of the
! sentries to regain his freedom, without
any molestation from the battalion of M
fantry that formed the garrison of the Cas-
tie, and he arrived safely in London.
MONEY MARKET-London, May, 90.
ten O'Clock. = The English securities
have been affected in considerable de-
gree by the news from America of dec
laration OF war by that country against
Mexico. II is feared that it win have the
! effect of involving us in fresh difficulties
with the United States, and that the Ore
gon dispute viii now become question
of secondary importance, compared with
others that will, in all probability, arise
from the hostilities of our transatlantic
neighbors.
The favorable effect which it was anti
cipated would follow the large majority
in the House of Lords on the second rea-
ding of the corn law bill, but was quite
stulhfed by this intelligence; and, not
wi;hstanding the good position Of the ac,
: count, prices are about half per cent.
lower than they closed last night.

MOSES HAMPTON, ESQ.

We are gratihed to observe that this
gentleman has been selected by the
Whigs and Antimasons of Allegheny
county as their candidate for Congress at
the ensuing election. If elected, as no
doubt he will be, Mr.. Hampton possesses
both the WILL and the ABILITY 10 serve
his constituents with advantage to them
and honor TO himself Few men can
boast a higher grade of talent, and none
are more deserving of public confidence.
He was for some years resident of this
county, and always sustained high char
actcr for 2robity and integrity-and his
numerous personal and political friends
here rejoice at the prospect OF his soon
entering upon field of so much useful
ness and honor.
In the memorable campaign OF lS40
Mr.. Hampton did good service TO the
Wings and Antimasons, not only in Alle-
gheny county, whittier he had then remov-
Cd. but clswhere, whenever and wherever an
opportunity offered to serve them-and to
his zeal and ability, perhaps more than to
those of anv other individual, were they IN
debted for the triumph which on that oc-
casion they gained over their opponents IN
this State. In 1914 the power of his elo-
quenee was again heard and felt in many
of the public assemblies that were held in
Western Pennsylvania to promote the
election of MARKLE and CLAY-and al
tho the contests Of that year resulted un-
favorably 10 the Wings and Antimasons,
he had the consolation of knowing that
he had done his duty; fully, honorably,
and fearlessly.
Mr.. Hampton, when elected, viii go
into Congress with a reputation that can
not fail to give him an influence which,
combined with his commanding talents,
will render him, in short time, one OF
the most useful members of that
bodv-and the citizens of Allegheny,
while they reap the benefits of his labors,
will a, the same time have cause to be
proud of him as their Representative.

Courier translates the following letter,
which is later than the intelligence from
Vera Cruz by the U. S. steamship Mis-
sissippi:-

Marina.
VFRA CRUZ, June l, 1916.
The Consuls of the neuter nations
have protested against the blockade OF
this port, declared on the goth of last
month by the commandant of the United
States fleet, which allows only l5 days
for foreign vessels to leave the port
The principal portion of the American
fleet is now at Isle Verde, and the Ameri-
can men-of-war ST. Mary's and Falmouth,
and small brig, are cruising before Tam
pico.
Many families are leaving this city for
the interior. We are now here as in
1888, with the only difference that the
Castle is in a better condition.
After much delay the Congress of the
nation had the first meeting on the 9th,
Senor Bustament (the ex-president) be-
ing appointed President of the same, and
it is generally believed that Paredes will
be elected legal President of the Repub-
lie.
! is said that Paroles will march over
| 10 Matamoras at the head OF strong
army, the largest portion composed from
the body Of troops called Reserve. The
day for the departure of the army is fixed
already, but nobody knows it. Gen.
Bravo will Occupy the Presidency al
interim.
The suspension of payments continue
and business remained in the worst con-
ditIon. The Government had called a
meeting for the purpose of procuring re-
sources, which believe can hardly be
obtained, because the clergy is not able
1 to pay the amount Of S90,GG0 monthly,
asked by the government; and on the 9th
or hand the actual condition OF the several
States is not such as to expect from them
any resources.
The New Orleans DELTA of the 10th
inst. has letter from its Pensacola cor
respondent, which has this item of News:
| sit is said that the situation of our
squadron in relation 10 the English, who
have increased theirs very considerably
is somewhat precarious. 1t is rumored
thatas soon as the English hear of the
declaration oil war against Mexico, It will
be the signal for them to take possession
Of the whole coast, and that it is theiI
intention to do so. If they do attempt i
look ont for hard knocks. Although
