The Niagara'S News.

The steamer Niagara arrived at Boston
on "Wednesday evening, and the foreign
papers brought by her came to h and last
evening. The news is extremely unim-
portant. In France, the chief points of
interest are the debate on the Presidents s
salary, and the progress of the election in
which Emile Girardin, the Socialist edi-
tor, is contending for a seat in the Legis-
has been hushed up for the present, if not
settled. The President had made visit
to st. Quentin, during which he gave
away about 10000 francs and this is Off
cred as a reason for increasing his salary.
Two trials had taken place for libels on
the President, in one of the cases the ac-
cused was acquitted.
From England, we see but little that is
of any interest. There had been scarcely
any change in commercial affairs during
the week. Nothing could be more sea-
sonable than the weather. Throughout
England, Ireland and Scotland, there has
been regular alienation of sunshine and
showers.
Arrangements have been made for hold
ing a great public meeting of the clergy
and lalty of the church of England, on the
27th June, for the adoption of certain res
olutlons with reference so the late deci-
sion of the Judicial committee in the case

Case Of Mr.. Smith o. O'Brien.-In the
House of Commons, on Friday night,
Mr.. l.. O'Brien called the attention of the
Government TO the state of health and the
treatment of his brother, Mr. Smith o.
Brien, the convict upon Maria Island,
Van Dieman's Land. The honorable
member stated that his health was suffer-
ing, and described at some length the reg
ulations under which he was placed, in
consequence of having refused the indul-
gence of a ticket ofleave.

The "Funeral of the Trench.

I'm Impressive SceTe-Ihe Cleveland
Piauodeater in its account of the horrb Die
catastrophe Of the burning of the steamer
Griffith, with the loss of near two humid
red lives, has the following:
''By far the saddest sight was the 'fu-
neral of the trench On a small hillock,
on the high bank overlooking the scene
of death, where the night before so many
struggled in vain against their fate, was
opened trench thirty feet long, six wide,
and eight deep. In this had been laid in
promiscuous order, man, woman, child;
hu sband, wife, and daughter; the father
and son, mother and infant layer upon
layer, until within four feet Of the sur
face. What a horrid work! To see hu-
man beings arranged for compactness, the
rough pile and larger bodies leveIed up
with children and lesser bodies, so that
this vast grave should present an even
surface TO the brush and boards which
were laid over their faces, and on which
the earth which was dug out of the pit
was thrown back. When we ascended
the bank, we found two or three hundred
people around the brink of this mound
taking last look. and performing the last
sad rites to the victims below A clergy
man or exhorter was addressing the by
ISLANDERS, and warning them in accents
solemn of the uncertainty of life, and the
fieetness and vanity ofall things here be-
low. Although there was no procession,
no tollng bell, no coffined hearse, or fu-
neral array, the scene was solemn and
impressive. Yet how soon will this event
be forgotten

The Nicaragua Canal.

If the statements of the New Y ork Her.
aid may be relied upon, preparations are
being made to open this communication
between the Atlantic and Pacific ocean as
soon as possible; and, within the space of
three months, or perhaps two, il will be in
such state of forwardness as will allow
of the transportation partly by land, but
principally by water, of passengers and
merchandise from ocean to ocean, without
any delay or detention worth speaking of.
The construction of such Apmunication
was, as our readers are pel4l0 asbare ce-
ded by the government of Nicaragua to a
company of enterprising American cIti-
zens, most of whom are we'll known TO
the public as men of energy and enterprise.
These gentlemen will employ in the course
of two months, two splendid steamships,
TO run between New York and San Juan
the Crescent City ana the Empire City.
From San Juan, the river of San Juan and
the lake Of Nicaragua will be navigated by
steamboats, of light draught 10 the town of
Nicaragua, distant fourteen miles from the
Pacific, which distance will be traversed
on land by means of carriages. By the
time that these arrangements are compile
ted, the steamships New Orleans and Sa-
rah Sands will connect with the Crescent
City aud the Empire City on the Pacific,
and run regularly on that ocean TO San
Francisco, thus making the line of COM
munication complete between New York
and California by that route. This route
is one thousand miles shorter than that by
| the isthmus of Panama, which is now {
great thoroughtarc to California.

Meeting of the CODfcreCS,

We have learned from SAMUEL III. TATE
Esq, one of the Congressional Conferees
from Bedford county, that the Congress
slcnal Conierees OF Wostn,nraland and
Bedford have selected the Summit as the
place of meeting and the 10th of July as
the time, to put in nomination a candidate
for Congress to be supported by the De-
mocracy of the District, at the coming fall
election. 'Ehe Summit occupies central
position in the District and is very easy OF
access, and we think 1t the most appropri-
ate place that could have been selected.

A Clineher!

We commend the following card from
Mr.. James Davis, delegate to the ate
Convention from Jackson to the serious
consideration of our neighbors of the Echo
In their efforts to create false issue. anc
to sustain themselves in the position they
have assumed, they have resorted to
means derogatory to the character of gen
tlemen, and which has recoiled with a
vengeance upon their own heads. Mr..
Davis has no idea of denying the course
he pursued as Delegate, or of dodgino
the responsibility, and when he signed
the card which appeared in the Echo, in
the hustle of the moment, he had no
knowledge whatever of lis character.
Allusion is also made by the Echo to
certain expressions of Mr.. William Glass,
a Delegate from Susquehanna, by which
they endeavor to place him in false po-
sition in relation to the proceedings of the
Convention. We are authorized by him
TO state that the assertions of The Echo are
false,-that he never stated that when he
signed the proceedings of the Convention
he was not acquainted with their character,
or that hehad any intention of appearing in
any other position before his fellow citi-
zens than the one in which the published
proceedings of the Convention placed
him. We will see whether the Echo
will do justice to these gentlemen by con-
:radlctIng its assertions and stating what
they know to be the trath
A CARD.
The undersigned one of the Delegates
TO the late County Convention has under
stood that certificate has been published
in the last Mountain Echo to which his
name is attached stating that, he did not
vote for the selection of Congressional
Conferees at said Convention, that the
question was considered settled by the
April meeting, and that the Convention
had adjourned previous to the selection
Of Congressional Conferees. This is
perversion of the facts as they occurred,
and the subscriber is willing to admit that
he did sign paper, out that it was done
IN hurry in the evening after the meet
ing OF the Convention, and under a misap-
prehenslon as to its purport, and without
any idea of its publication.
The undersigned did cote for the ap-
pointment of Congressional Conferees by
the Convention, believing that it had al
ways been the usual practice of that body
so to do, and that the Convention did not
adjourn until after the Congressional Con-
ferees and County Committee had been
appointed, although motion had been
made for that purpose.
