on the 1st inst, but was prevented by the
excuses of a mob. Fl is understood that
he will make second trial The occasion
was one rejecting lasting infamy upon that
growing city. 1t was no sudden outbreak
of popular passion, but a predetermined and
evil concerted movement on the part of abO-
lit;onists, and the personal enemies of Judge
DOUGLASS, to disgrace him at his own home
The men engaged in the disgraccful out
rage, are those on whose party banner is
Inscribed /" Free Labor, Free Thought, Free
Speech, and Free Men," 1t adds one other
proof to substantiate the fact that the par
ty pretending peculiarly to the advocacy of
equal rights, is utterly false and hollow
built up on no enduring national principles,
hut depending for its existence on agitation,
and appeals to the worst passions and pref
udicCS of the mind.
This public insult will work no injury to
Senator DOUGLASS. lie will yet be heard
i'll Chicago, gladly heard there, even though
his doctrines may not meet with the gene
raj acquiescence. 1t is impossible that any
set of fanatics and mobocrats, can, for any
length of time, hold sway in rational COM
munity.

Reports in the English papers say that the
inhabitants of Aland had risen against the
Russians, and it was proclaimed, by the French
admiral, from the pulpits of all the churches,
that the Russian sway over the island had
ceased.

General assembled the stand, and with his pc
culiar thunder broke the silence by saying:
There is more joy over one sinner that re-

that need no repentance

lips ere the house 'camc down in loud and
continued applause. All present then under

Commodore stewart.

In looking over the list Of retired officers in
the House Naval bill, we find the name of this
gallant veteran officer, now at the head OF Cap
tains. 1t is good to recount the brave deeds
of this son of the sea. AS long ago as the
years 1882 we find him commanding an
armed vessel of this government, and has ever
borne the character of being dauntlessly brave
and most skillful seaman. It was he COM
manded the Constitution during the last war
when she encountered the English frigatc LIE
rant and the heavy sloop-ofwar Cyane, and
after long, tough, and spirited engagement
she captured them both. The Commodore ac-
uuired great renown in this engagement; the
crew cvinccd also the greatest courage and
consumnlate skill in the management of the
vessel. The Cyaae first struck her colors, and
the Lerant, after exhibiting great boldness
submitted to til heavy broadsldes poured into
her by "Old Ironsides.''

Svvamps near Hudson, Ohio, OH Fire.
Sept. |.

In Ohio, the pine swamps west of Hudson,
have been burning for several weeks. The
meadows to the extent of several hundreds of
acres, have been burnt down to the depth of
four feet, and will, when the swamp fills with
water, become lake. The fire would COM
mcnce eating under, and whole acres were I'M
dcrmincd, when, finding vent, it would burst
out furiously, consuming everything within its
reach.
President Pierce of the Hudson College,
went to the swamp to view the scene, when he
saw several large trees, apparently on solid
ground, commence tumblng as though caused
by an earthquake. The fire broke out all
around him, and he narrowly escaped with his
life
