others, like Mr.. Carroll, not in Congress at the
time, appears amongst those who adopted and
carried through that perilous measure.
We do not object to the dividend OF glory TO
viii III Mr. Carroll is entitled, but il is due to
history that the precise measure Of his renown
should be properly stated
The great measures of the American heVo-
luton was the revolution of independence, II
was novel, bold, uncompromising. From the
9th Of une until the LIST ofJuy, it was under de-
bate or consideration; at first many ofthe Colo
MES were opposed TO any separation from the
mother country. The chief labor, risk, and
merit was with the men who brought the
Congress ultimately to a unanimous 0onfirma-
ton of the resolution Of Independence. Those
who came after, and signed the Declaration,
were highly meritorious; but their merit can
not be put upon the same platform with their
predecessors in patriotism Mr.. Carroll belongs
to the latter class. 1t was not his fault that he
was not in the front files Of glory
But the meritorious authoress has been
fully indicated from any imputaton of wrong.
The error was made without her knowledge.
She corrected it promptly. 1t has occasioned
a vindication which shows she was under no
obligation to her distinguished relative. First,
because she was an American woman, making
by her own efforts an honest living for those
dependant on her exertions Secondly, be-
cause she had one ancestor Imprisoned for his
opinion, which is glory enough for one author
ess. We therefore consider Miss G. as one of
those fortunate persons who need not TO
"call the king" or Charles Carroll either her
uncle" For as Sir Lucius O'Triggcr nobly
observed, "what though the dirty acres have
slipped through my fingers, thank God the
family honor is untarnished."

Poor louisville /!

Ever since the assault made upon the Amer
leans by the German and Irish population
of Louisville, the followers of the Greytown
administration have been assailing that unhap-
py city and its citizens. One would suppose
that even If the foreign quarter of the town
had been sacked, those who bombarded the
cane huts and adobe dwellings of the Nicaragua
censure others for having followed their exam
pie But, in making this Louisville riot a
question of party, the administration journals
represent that, so great is the terror with which
the Americans have inspired the foreign popu-
lation Of that city, that there is general bun
ding up Of chests, spades, frows, meershaums,
and babies constituting what the Washington
Union calls "The Louisville Exodus" Nor is
that the worst--a Chicago paper says that
~. NJ Speed, formerly Mayor Of Louisville
and very large number Of wealthy and re-
fined gentlemen have removed, or are prepared

unsafe that people are abandoning it to dwell

fractured one had his spine injured, and several
Others more or less injured.
The boat did not leave Stonington until six
o'clock this msrning.

design, OF one OF The lengths of the railroad track,

The escape Of the whole train was miraculous
LATEsr.-The accident occurred at 500 last

appearances the old feud between the company and

Of the Rhode Island Legislature, toward the COM

| Some miscreant removed one Of the rails on the
| bridge where the train ran off, and placed IL two
feet inside of the line of the track obviously with
the intention of throwing the whole train into the
river Fortunately, none of the cars went over

Ten persons were injured, four of them seriously

From the Richmond American
The Hungarian Count at the Virginia
Springs.

A gentleman of this city, recently on visit to
the Montgomery White Sulphur Springs, found,
on his arrival there that the whole place was
alive with excitement in relation to distinguished
stranger, "real Hungarian Count" then lionizing
thereat His flowing beard, and MISUNDERSTANDING
whiskers set off his well developed facial appen-
dage TO "gnat's heel.n The yonng ladies', of
course, all dying to be introduced to the arts
tocratic stranger, while the young gents were en-
vious of the rapid strides he was apparently ma
king into the affections of some Of their lady loves
This state of things we say, was existing when
our friend arrived on the ground. Like all other
men who have travelled and seen much, he de-
sired TO see yet more, and SO In accordance with
wish to that effect he received an introduction in
due form. His astonishment may be guessed when
tell our readers, that in the person of the ex-
lied Hungarian Count, he recognised one Of Pha-
Ions journeyman BARRIERS, who often in New York,
at the st. Nicholas, had put the finishing touch to
his own whiskers. The recognition was mutual.
Count Glorioux" found it convenient to leave
next morning lie wished to go to Lynchburg to
get certain drafts cashed. Mr.. Mosby of the
Springs of course would have no objection TO let.
ting him take his trunk with him. Az that gentle
man did have an objection to his so doing he was
constrained TO depart without his "chst.p That
was the last Of Count Glorioux at the Montgomery
White Sulphur Springs. Ills trunk, when opened
TO view, will doubtless be found to contain sundry
dickeys and full supply of Phalons unriyalled
hair dye. As sequel to this somewhat extended
narrative, we may mention that the " Count" had
previously left the Yellow Springs in debt to the
landlord $50 for board. He was permitted to re-
move his effects from that locality, on account Of
his good looks. II il said that the young gents
rusticating at the Montgomery White Sulphur
Springs feel considerable easier now than before
the Counts departure. The aristocratc stranger
is no longer about to steal the hearts Of the girls
and monopolze all the attention, and they may
be considered safe for the present
