BACK AGAN.-Among the passengers by the
Pacific are Colonel Aspnw.ll, for m my years
our Consul ut Landou and Hon Daley Mann,
Assistant Secretary of State. Mr.. Mann, before
leaving Paris, doubtless had everything duly
cut and dried concerning that Continent, Con-
gress Of General Pr rce's diplomats, Including
the very latest instructions from the State De-
partment on the exact materials and patterns of
good old DR.. Franklins diplomatic costums.
The country may, therefore, feel easy on thai
subject, and perfectly assured of harmonious
conclusion to the deliberations of the aforesaid
Continental Congress.
Colonel Aspinwall, it will be remembered
was superseded in his London consulate by that
great champion Of Young America and of Kos
suth and the continental refugees ia Engl md
George N. Sanders, who, in his turn, having
been rejected by the "old fogies' of the Seaate
has been superseded by another appointment.
Still, Sanders remains behind, and having the
affairs of Switzerland, the aforesaid Congress of
diplomats, the movements of the refugees, aud
the sale of George Laws old maskets and
secondhand artillery to look after he may not
be home for some time yet. Let him close up
all these affairs, however as soon as possible,
for it will shortly be time to set to work for
the next Presidential election. Better luck,
perhsps next tme-perhaps.
GENUINE OR BoaUs?-Some of the Know No
things Of the interior have met at Utica, and,
repudiatng Ullman and Scroggs. have adopted
Clark and Ford as their gubernatorial TICKET
Several questions are accordingly suggested.
Are these Utica Know Notbiogs genuine or
bogus-insiders or outsiderss and il Nj. Clark
party to their acceptance of himself and their
rejection Of Ray mondf After the affair of that
spurious lodge which was refused admission
into the brotherhood, although Mr. Clark was
one of the appncan1s, these are a.,
tions. Will the Seward organs, who betray 30
much anxiety to know whether Daniel Ullman
is native Of revolutionary descent, or de-
scendant of German Jew, and born in Bengal,
or on the other side of the Jordan, endeavor to
enlighten US as to the precise merits OF the
Know Nothingism Of Myron II. Clark?
TIE FREE DEMOCRACY AND THEIR PR0NuNcIA-
MENTo.-We publish to-day the pronunciamento
in behalf of the free democracy of New York,
signed by John P. Hale, Hiram Barney and
John Jay. Their party are the real Simon
pure Birney Van Buren, Buffalo free soilers.
Their address is composed Of equal parts of
pitch, tar and turpentine, wrapped around Judge
Douglas and the Nebraska bill, and all in
blaze What they are driving at in the present
canvass, and who they go for, does not SO PLATO.
ly appear as might be desired; but as nearly as
we can make out, though they are half ashamed
to confess it, Clark is their man, and the wings
are their allies, upon their good behavior. Let
Seward bear this in mind. Hale is also can
didate for the Presidency on the anti-slavery
platform.

THE ARCTIC CALAMTY.-In the news brought
yesterday by the Pacific 1t will be seen that .
notice was posted in the Underwriters rooms
at Liverpool that the royal mail steamship
Canada was spoken on the morning of the 9th
October by the Arabia, and made great exer-
tions to communicate with her, but the only
word heard was "saved" She then telegraphed
the Arctic's number and several other signals,
but the vessels were by that time too far apart
for them to be made out. 1t is proper to re-
mind the public, in order to prevent any false
hopes being entertained, that the Canada no
doubt wished to communicate the intelligence
that Mr.. Bahlaam and his party were saved-the
party, In fact which she herself brought to
Boston.

The DISSERTATION OF FANEuIL HALT.--Upon
the application ofa certain number ofthe tax-pay-
ing citizens of Boston, the Mayor is authorized TO
allow the use OF that time -honored crusade OF
Hberty' for public meeting. 1t having been
prosttuted to the purposes of traitors and rioters
few weeks ago, Mr.. Kelley, member of the
Common Council. at recent meeting of the
Board, offered the following preamble and order:
Whereas, at meeting recently held in Fan
euil Hall. Theodore Parker and Wendell Phil
lips INDUCED in violent speeches, which were
reasonable in their character, and disgraceiu to
the place where they were uttered. and TO the
city--leadins directly TO riot and murder-there-
fore be il
Ordered, That the Committee on Ordinances
consider and report if expedient, an ordinance
which shall prevent, if possible, the repetition OF
such disgraceiul and dangerous proceedings"
In very handsome speeck, Mr.. Kelley defend
ed his proposition and quoted largely from The
printed reports of the speeches of Parker and
Phillips TO show that they were Unreasonable in
their character" He proclaimed himself an
American. and the constitution of his country was
dearer to him than the rawlings of all Aboitionists
and Free Sellers in the land He believed Parker
and Phillips aud the others who acted with them
at Faneuil Hall. were the murderers of Batched-
er. Had Jackson been President, ne would Mt
Kelley thought have hung these men for treason.
Mr.. Kelley called TOR the yeas and nays on the
question OF ordering the preamble and order to a
second reading, which were ordered, and then tne
further consideration was postponed to the next
meeting.

unusually favorable to the potato crop
