The New Orleans Crescent and the Vh;y
 Resurrection.

The New Orleans Crescent is disposed to quarrel with somebody or other, 1t does not eX- actly say who, for giving out that the whg party is dead. Let the blame, if any there be, fall where it is due. A whig paper, the New York Tribune was one of the authors of this scandalam naagaatum Daniel Webster. the great Whig statesman, was another. But the Crescent feels outraged at the scandal. It de- clares that there is no foundation for it. We presume that the whig party, as na- tional and homogeneous organization, was meant If so, the announcement of the Fri bune was correct. But the Crescent will not even admit that It cites proofto the contrary. It says
 Notwithstanding a we'll proved disease and actual burial, the whigs of the country have been writing, speaking, and voting as before; have contested prncl pies and politics, carried points and parishes and precincts; been victo- rlous here and triumphant there over all their opponents. The whgs are supreme in Maine: they defeated the administration policy and prevented the election of democratic United States Senator in New Hamshire; they hold Vermont, rule in Massachusetts, and regulate the conduct of Connecticut. In many of the other States their influence controls the policy ot the State, and they are to-day winning vic tory alter victory wherever an election is held The latest intelligence received from North Carolina is that General Dockerv has been cleo ted Governor over Bragg, the democratic can- didate, by large majority, and that the State itself has gone whig by most decided vote In Virginia also, whig candidate for Con- gress has been elected over the democratic nom inee"
 Now we would respectfully ask the Crescent if the whigs of Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts. and Connecticut are national whigs? Are they such whgS as the New Orleans Crescent is willing to fraterlise with? Is it not notori- ous that they are completely demoralized and abolitionized? But their rule, is what the Crescent calls whig rule. It will find, we oplne, but few Southern whigs to agree with it. But two of its other proofs fail. It says that the whigs of North Carolina are triumphaut. when the democrats carried the State by handsome majority. True, the Crescent re- lied only upon the rumors current at he time It's article was written, but We would suggest to the Crescent that rumors are unsafe things to rely on, in grave article intended to estab- fish that greatest of all miracles-a resurrection from the dead.
 The Crescent also declares that whio can dldate for Congress has been elected in Virginia Tn place of Mir. Snodgrass, who died during the session. Here, again the Crescent is mistaken. Mir. Lewis, democrat, was elected by consid- erable majority. The Crescent must bring stronger facts and arguments to prove the re- surrection.- Washington Sentinel.

Correspondence of the Daltimo,e Sn,


 Was}sangton, Aug. 2lst.-The last arrival from Europe brings us the news of the terrible ef- feet which the burning of Greytown hes prod uced Tn England The "Thunderer," always calm and classical, alludes to the fact that sey- eral American papers have already severely commented on the matter, and opines that there is no need of discussing it further h. stead Of threatening General Pierce, as the im mortal Dante did his tyrants, with the "ven. geance ot the poet,' he consigns him to the vim dictiveness of American newspapers. There is a sublmity of cruelty and an unusual amount of wisdom and sound statesmanship in that species of revenge.
 MT. Buchanan's last reply to Lord Claren- dons note contains a complete exposition of the dlscreditable and unworthy course pursued by England in regard to the Central American question. It is perfectly unanswerable, and it IS quite possible, though not probable, that Eng land may back out of the untenable and dishon- orable position assumed by her opposite at Nic- argua. The question may be settled in a month or sixty days; but the probability is Lord Pal. merston will seize some new pretext "to teuze Nicaragua little longer.' These were the ioehtlcal words employed by his Lordship in ms reply to Lawrence, our minister to Eng iahd, under the administration of Mr. Fill iilore; English philanthropy seems to be about e4ually divided between the Indians and the Negroes.
 The events in Spain cannot but produce inn por1aht consequences in Cuba where Concha !. once more to assume the captain generalship cl c 'ne iSiand. This appointment does not look ,aVoraoie to our immediate acquisition of Cuba. In the meanwhile the question occnrs how lono Will Espartero be able to hold the reins of gov, ernment. sO The N ebraska agitation has already culmir.a- ted, and the opposition to the bill has seen its best days. It willnever do as we'll again The Northern Democratic leaders have determ;nad % not to make it test question, and the mass of the people like it because it reasserts and con- firms the doctrine of popular sovereignty Of what use is the agitation of the abstract dues. tlon, while thousands of emigrants are pouring into the territories to decide it practically by their votes?

SPIRITUALIsM RUN MAD-ExTRAoRD1SARy MACHINE BYA SPIRIT RAPPER.-The reyela- tlons of splrltualsm have hitherto been of an amusing character; but from a statement which appears in the New Era, the organ of the rap- pers, 1t would seem as if the followers of this new ism are pushing their angelic theories to the widest verge of blasphemv and obscentv. In late number of the organ" we are favored with long editorial article about what is called the "ElectriCal Meteor" or "New Savior. ,, The Era speaks of its deep satisfaction that the world is, by-and-bye, to blessed beyond con- ception by this physical savior through whose lnstrumentallty permanent material basis shall be lad tor true spiritual salvation. The new ''savior'' is machine which has been con- structed at Linn, Mass, by the spiritualist, which they claim to be sem-mechanical and sem-human. lthas been denominated a New Motive Power," and cost $2,OOO to construct it. The New Era remarks that the Electric Motor IS an exact correspondence of the human body. at least so far as involuntary motion is con- cerned. 1t was constructed under spirit direc- tion, and chiefly at the Rev. Mr.. Spears ex- pense. This done, the next thing was to put lie Tn It, which brings us to the most extraor alnary part of the business. How life was i'm. P"l'eu Co Che uldcHlne, Uy MIS-, we will not disgust our readers by detailing.
 If anything more is needed of the last ema- nation of crazysm, it is found in the assertion that the machine began to have life or pulsa- tion, which increased under process precisezu analogous to that cf 'aurssmg Angelic intelli. gences have of course attended her. to explain these mysteries. Spear and his fellow fools do not pretend to understand what the ultimate designs of the intellgences are.
 To cap the climax of absurdity, we have the following statement:
 " In the New Era of July 5th, we find wis., ion had by J. Wolcott, which develops what is expected to be accomplished by this machine It appeared to grow in size, and 'threw off from itself small machines afterits own pattern and these in turn threw off multitude of other It- tie ones." Then he says:
 Next there appeared movement amono the machines, and the large ones, which were now fully developed, moved away over the plain into the distance. In their path stood a great number of churches, of every size and va- riety, from the diminutive Methodist chapelun to the stately Gothic Minister and St. Paul's Cathedral. But the machines did not turn out of their course at all, running over and through those temples. completely demolishing them to heaps of worthless rubbish"
