Hon Jous P. HALE. We Learn from the Wood
stock Mercury, that lir Hale gave an address at
Woodstock, on Tuesday Of last week, and that "thc
moral social and political evils Of slavery consttu
cd the theme of the lecture" From Gn individual
who went to Rutland on Saturday last for the 1ur-
pose of hearing Mr. Halo address the people on the
above named subject we learn that the expected
speaker had not arrived when he left, which was
near night. We rather think the people had an adj
dress in the evening.
When we first saw the notice Of Mr. Hae's APP
pointments wo did not copy them, and for the rea-
son that VIC did not believe he would ride from N.
Fcrrisbuvgh to Rutland, fifty miles, on Saturday,
and get ready to address audience at or near one
o'clock, p. NJ When the notice came out in the
/ Herald, we were requested to copy, which we did
fearing at the same time that those who desired tc
hear Mr. Hale would have to wait some time attel
the hour set for commencing. We shall learn from
the Herald of this week, whether Mr. Hale arrived
and addressed the people at that place.
/ One thing we observed in the Mercury, which il
practised to some extent by other Wing papers, bu
which we think not tho best policy, and that Is
the thrust at Liberty party men for what they die
In 18l4,--vrtually charging them with being TIL
instruments used in almexing Texas, &c. In 1874
we took Liberty party ground, but if the same pc
litica scenes were to be rc-enacted we should stan
back. III 1910 the editor Of the Mercury supported
John Tyler the same John Tyler nominated JON
C. Calhoun as Secretary of State, and the VIII
Senate approved that nomination. John Tyler an
John C. Calhoun got the Texas annexation schem
nearly completed before Mr. Polk was elected Nov
our friend OF the Mercury must admit that bimsel
and others who went with him, committed an erro
in supporting John Tyler Let him then "own III
truth and shame tho Devil; LAY aside past errors
and 90 light in future. Will not this be the b"S
course to take

ANOTHER EXPRESS RACE from Montreal
to Boston came off on the arrival of the last
steamship, and that by the Concord and Cen
trail route beat It's opponent by about twenty
hours. We have not the exact time, but from
Boston to Montpelier was done in twelve
bours.-U. Wdtchman, July 20.
Friend WALTON, we have word to say to you on
the above statement and that is if you do not dcsst
telling such outrageous falsohoods will have You
read out of the Wing ranks! We did so far after
reading your editorial lie, as to propose to warm
Liberty man in town, to have him take you into
their ranks but he declined receiving you, saying
they had enough Of your stamp already!
What do you mean by telling about "-Anoher Ex-
press Race" and that yours boat ours "by about
twenty hours?" The facts, there was no Express
run on this side No Mountain afNw the arrival OF

the last steamer which arrived before your editorial
appeared; had there been, it would have beat yours
by the time from Montpelier to Burlington, accords
ing to your own showing, for when it did run it got
to Burlington in ttoelre hours from Boston, and Mr.
Field said the Agent told him it got into Montreal
screen hours ahcad ofyoprs! Why that Express was
only about % hours in going from Boston to Mont
real and do you think folks are SO big fools that YOU
can make them believe yOur Riders can gain tcenty
hours out of twenty three hours performed by Ex
press men on this route? Such stories may do for
the Central route, but they wont answer FOR this.
you have such men for patrons they are certainly
to be pticd; and if your habit of misrepresent;pz
about railroad matters will cause you to mis-state

your course and show yourself man before you

RloTs IN New BRUNSWICK. We men
toned briefly on Tuesday, the fact, commu-
nicated by friend who had just returned
from st. John, N. B., that serious riots had
recently occurred in the Province, between
the Orannemen and the Ribbonmen, (Protes-
tant and Catholic.) We have since exam
ined the St. John Morning News of the 10th,
and the Fredericton Head Quarters Of the
18th inst.
From these papers we learn that Monday,
the 18TH was the anniversary OF the battle OF
Boyne, Ireland, by which, it vii! be remcm'
bered, the Prince of Orange completed the
overthrow of James ii and the Popish dynas-
ty of the Stuarts. This day, therefore, is OBJ
served by the Protestant Irish, under the IL
tie of Orangemen, as the establishment OF the
Protestant dynasty on the throne of Great
Britain. Of course, the recognition Of the
day excites the ire Of the Popish Irish, or
Ribbonmen; and quarrels and riots very
often arise between them on the 18th OF Ju'
ly.
AT Fredericton, the Orangcmen, in as
sembline for a private lunch, we're drawn in
TO fight with the Ribbons, which resulted
in a few broken heads, disfgured faces, one
broken leg, and the somewhat serious lnJu
ny Of ono man by slugs, shot into his body.
At Woodstock there was much more Sc
rious affray. There the Orangemen, to thu
number Of $50, assembl, d, and marched IL
procession, to have an address or sermon or
the occasion. Apprehending an attack trsn
. the Ribbonmen, they provided themselve
with firearms, which were carried, read.
loaded, in wagon along with them. On 1t
return, the Ribbonmen attacked the process
sion with fire arms. The Orangemen lmme
diately ran to their wagons, and Selling thci
arms, returned the fire with deadly effect
The fight now became general, and was cor
tinued until the Ribbons yielded, and wer
driven out of the town, leaving FIVE dead, an
several wounded-BoSt. IraU

GREAT MORTALITY oSBoARD THE U. 5.
SHIP RARITAN. We learn that previous to
leaving the squadron, the Raritan received
on board q number OF sick from the other
ship5, all of chronic diseases, seven OF whom
died on the passage home; and the crew lost
ten of their number from bilious remittent
fever, of which there were many cases on
board when the ship arrived here, all, howev-
or, in state Of convalesccnce. Captain Ed
son, of the Marine Corps, died OF fever at
Havana on the 10Th instant the day the ship
left that port. He had distinguished himself
by his gallantry in the attack on Vera Cruz,
and several other sharp encounters with the
enemy, without receiving wound, to be cut
down in the flower Of manhood, and the pride
of his fame, by the insidious hand of disease.
Midshipman Storer, who died on The 4tb, was
a son of Capt. Geo. w. Storer, u. 5. n The
Raritan was ordered to quarantine by the
health authorities Immediately on her arrival,
and at an early hour yesterday morning land
ed ali her sick (sixty-six in '@mber) at the
Naval HOSPITAL. The disease, though nia!lg-
nant in its character, is reported by the ply
sicians as not contagious; and not single
instance Of vomi:o hNa occurred On board the
ship. The healthy portion CT the crew, we
are informed, is intended to be transferred to

DESTRUCTIVE CONFEDERATION &'PduPS
Church Heap Of Ruins! 1t becomes our
painful duty to announce the destruction OF
st. Paurs or Grace Church, by fire. Sunday
morning about two o'clock, the flames were
discovered issuing from the belfry just above
the roof of the building, aud in q few minutes
! so strong was the current of air, that the en-
! tire steeple was cnveloped in flames.
The library of the Church, we understand
had been removed, but the books in the body
of the building were not rescued. The splen
did organ OF the Society, as also the massive
bell, were both destroyed, the latter having
been melted. The cost Of the two was some
thing like $4,000. The outer walls of Tho
church, which are of cut stone, are consider
ably injured, but remain standing. Ever.
thing upon the inner portion was consumed.
The loss to the congregation must be some
thing like $4,000 or $4,000; $4,000 Q

Col. DoNIPHAN AND Col. XENoTEoN.-
The New York Post compares Col Doniphan'S
expedition from Missouri through New Mex
ico, to the mouth of the Rio Grande, with the
famous expedition of the five hundred Greeks
under the renowned leader Of nearly similar
name, Col. Xenophon. The last has become
classic because it was told in so charming
manner by Xenophon, and all Doniphan has
to do is to write perfect history Of his ex-
petition, to make it be read with admiration
two thousand years hence. The Greeks
were led from near Babylon, through Ar
menia to the Black Sea, thence to Chrysopo-
lisa distance of three thousand and sixty-five
miles. 1t was accomplished in fifteen months,
and large part of it through an unknown,
mountainous and hostile country, and in an
Indictment season, the Greeks losing every
thing except their lives and arms. Doniphan
and The Missourians travelled over six thou
sand miles in twelve months, neither receiv'
ing supplies nor money, but living exclusive
" on the country through which they passed
