THE GLORY OF ALL LANDS.

Rev. s. M, Pomeroy. Bangor, Me-, writes from
the other side of the Atlantic in this strain:
" One result of my observations in various coun
tries. IS the deep. overwhelming conviction. that
the United States of North America is immeasur-
ably the most blessed land the sun shines upon,
IN all It's circni, through tho heavens. You never
meet an American abroad who does not say the
same. Sins We have. indeed. many, great and
fearful. But our privileges. how immense! The
'honght which has spontaneously risen to my heart
thousand times, as have hooked upon the in
habtiants ct there ancient lands. in their squald
poverty, Is. God bless The United States of
.america''

NEW YORK STATE PRISON

There is a curious warfare going on in New
York in relation TO the Sing Sing Prison Govern
ment. which is conducted with great vigor by
Moses Y. Beach, Of the New York Sun, and the
Rev. John Luckey, once, OF now, Chaplain to.
said Prison, against the State Inspectors. and Mrs
Farnham the Ma,ron of the Prison. 1t appears.
that the latter is sustained by the Inspectors, and
the Chaplain by the effulgent Sun. The cause.
of quarrel is. 'sThe Prison Library" Mrs.
Farnham is practical philosopher and phrenolo-
gist, and governs the prisoners according TO
Il" human natur," and furnishes the convicts with
such books as. so far as we have ever heard, are
pleasing and instructive, but which the Rev
John I.uckey proclaims horrible and objection
able"-these are o. S. Fowler's chronological
Works, and the inimitable Works of Boz. as
" Nicholas Nickleby," b" Oliver Twist" and the
% Christmas Carol" and oher popular novels of
the day" and numerous other books of like, and
even still more objectionable characteri" What
horrible an,hroPophag this Mrs. Farnham must
be, and how the pure spirits of Mr.. Beach and
the Rev. John Luckey must travail In sorrow to
and feel that those sacred ,ralls of the States
Prison are defiled with such Objectionable works,
while Mr. Luckey's selection is treated with con
tempt, composed. as it was, of "Harpers Com
mon School Library" "The Christian Libra
Ty," and books of similar character, princi-
pally from the Presbyterian Repository in Nassau
street, N. Y"
We have read with intense interest, and dread
ful preseniment of evil, the startling develop
men,s of the Rev. John Luckey, as published in
the New York Sun. and We pray that bright
luminary for the sake of common sense, to veil the
corruscations of its Reverend correspondent with
the mantle of oblivion nor longer insult the COM
munity with it, and if possible, to eradicate from
its own mind the terrible phantom of Fourierism
From all we have heard, we believe the innocent
neophytes in the sombre and classic shades OF
Sing Sing are doing as well now. as they have
ever done before.

FUN

The Boston Post announces for Monday after
noon last one of the rarest entertainments ever
witnessed in that city, to come off this afternoon,
at the new hall in Haymarket square. Among
the sports is the following:-
"THE BLADDER RAcE-The peculiar en-
tertainment. described by Martin Faruuhar
Upper, in one of his late publications., is one of
the most laughable things that can possibly be con-
ceived. Six eight men start from a given
point. each with large bladder tethered to both
their ANGLES with cord about foot long, for
given point, prize having been offered for the
first who reaches il. If The speed is attempted to
be increased, the bladders become entangled about
the legs OF the competitors. pitching them one on
the other and throwing them down, and produc-
ing the most !aughable and ludicrous results. The
breaking and bursting of The bladders making
noise something like the discharge of small artil-
lery."
This is probably an invention suggested by
reading Walkers Games and Sports, in which
the following ludcrons exhibition is detailed :
These are old time sports, and have given place
to night meetings" and "protracted gather
ings," the fruits of which are not vet fully
ripe -
RUNNING IN SAcKs.-Ths is sport which
affords much amusement To the spectators The
runners are enclosed, from the bottom of the feet
to their necks. in sacks. in which the hands are
also confined, and The sack is then tied round the
neck. The prize is the reward of the person who
frs, reaches the goal. AS many as present them
selves are allowed to compete. AT given signal
they start; some, with their eagerness, and ef-
forts to advance, remain jumping and striving
without making visible progress; some become
PROSTATE at the very commencement end others,
having no guidance of themselves, joste against
their neghbors, and speedily cover the ground
with the fallen. These constant mishaps, and
the unsuccessful attempts to rise, excite the rsible
faculties Of the snectatnrs -

SCARCITY OF COAL.

On this sObjes the New York Sun says :-Ap.
PrehenslonS of foreign competition in coal, from
reduction IN the tariff, induced the Pennsylvania
miners to contract their operations in July and
August bot now that the consumption is found
to have increased one fourth since last year, they
have again employed their full force Of hands at
the mines; too late, howeve to get the coal to
market, as the canals and railroads cannot send il
forward fast enough. The consequence is that the
price is raising, and we are threatened with We.
~ serious scarcity this winter. Foreign coal NAV
come in from Piciou and Liverpool, bot we fear
not in time to pseserVe the poor from the effects
Of high prices.

THE U. S. SHIP CONSTITUTION.

Well, it is now ascertained that this sterling
old favorite has been sent TO Boston. We believe
that if the voice of the American people had been
taken, that would have been the last place to
which she would have been committed but Sec
retary Bancroft. and the " skiIful naval cons,ruc.
tor" who presides over the Bureau of Cons,ruc
ton, Sc, Capt. Morris, are Bostonians, and had
the temeT,y TO offer this insult to the democratic
party through "Od Ironsides." She has not
been there since her " figure head "was destroyed
in that harbor, in 1882 or '33. We shall give
the history of that transaction in our next, from
the speech of Com j. d. Elliott, who was true
soldier, sailor, patriot and democrat

BRITISH MEDIATION.

Alter admitting the unhncss OF the English
Government to play the part Of an umpire during
the tendency of the Oregon dispute, Lord Palmer
| ston says:

have instructed Mr.. Packenhsm to make the
newed offer Of mediation in shape that shall 70.
quire an answer from the United States. A cor
responding communication has been made to the
| Government Of Mexico, and, therefore. the offer
ha wing now been made To both the contending
parties, II will depend on the answers we may
receive TO these communications, in what degree
the government of this country may be successful
IN bringing to an amicable settlement. difference
| which 4 am sure all the well wishers of both
Mexico and the United States would rejoice to see
terminated"
Although the European powers have watched
with jealous eye the extension of American ter
r'tory and American principles. they have been
unable TO detect any flaw in our conduct towards
Mexico that would authorize forcbie inierven.
ton this is universally acknowledged. But now
England seeks to attain the same end under the
pretext of friendly mediation we hope her offer
will be firmly and decidedly rejected. We are
opposed in private and public matters to the prin
cipe of arbitration. Arbitrators invariably seek
to satisfy both parties, rather than to do justice to
either; if a man claims your coat and panraoons.
leave it to arbitration. and the arbtrators give him
the pantaIoons at least We think we have right
on our side, and we have the power to enforce il.
In the defence of bad cause Mexicu has robbed
our treasury and split some of the best blood in
America we hope that the retribution will be such
as to prove warning TO her hereafter.
We copy the above from the Southern Stand
ard. and need only say that they embody our SEN
timents exactly. We think after reading what
the President says in his first message to Con-
gress. about European interference in American
affairs, we need have no fear of his accepting the
mediation of England. If Lord Palmerston
wishes to play the part Of peace maker, let him
direct his efforts to induce Mexico to do justice,
pay her honest debts, and then, hut not Till then
will the American troops be stad in their onward
march. We are right glad to see our own opn
ions. as to the policy of continuing active opera
lions, sustained by the Government at Washing
ton. The Union, which no doubt reflects the in
tentions of those who have the management of our
national affairs, says We have seen variou,
versions in the newspapers of the contents of the
late dispatches from Mexico. But whatever be
the truth upon the matter. true policy seems to
point to a vigorous prosecution of the war. The
President, with all his disposition for peace, has
declared his objections TO any armistice, to any
cessation of hostities until treaty of peace has
been made and ratified. AS we said the other day,
the only road to prompt and permanent peace,
is vigorous prosecution of the war."-.Nc,c

AN EXCHANGE REFUSED

The Savannah Georgian, writing from the
squadron off Vera Cruz, says that flag of truce
was sent down to Commodore Conner, offering to
exchange Commander Carpenter, his officers and
men, for General Vega and The three officers ia
ken with him. The proposition was refused.
The Union of Thursday evening, in noticing
this rumor gives it fiat denial, and says that 80
far from refusing. Com. Connor sent the PROPOSE
ton 10 his Government for instructions, and that
such have been sent on as, it is hoped. will lead
10 the exchange of the officers of the Truxton.
