VIRGINIA SAFE FOR BUcHAEAs.--The
number Of slaves now annually cold for ex-
portation in Virginia is said 10 be upward
OF twenty thousand. Gov. Wise estimates
the rise In the price of slaves, in the case
Buchanan IL elected, at $1,000 piece
This would add so millions OF dollars year
TO the amount Virginia would receive for
her export Of human cattle. Virginia may
be set down as cafe for Buchanan.

JAMES BUCHAsAs's DrIsG SPEEcE.-Mr.
Buchanan, in his speech to the Keystone
Club al Whealand, endorsed the Cincin-
mali Platform in the following emphatic
language:
"GEsTLEHEE:-Two weeks ago should
have made you longer speech. but now
my tongue is tied, as have been placed
upon platform of which | mos, heartily
and cordially approve. And being the rep
resentaiive Of the great Democratic party
Of the eountry, and not simply James Buch-
anan, must square my conduct according
to that platform, and insert no new plank
into il, nor take one plank out OF ii. That
platform ia sufficiently broad and sufficient
y national for the whole Democratic party.

RUFFIASisM AT Aoscow.-The following
paragraph from the Muscatine Journal gives
the truth relative to the meeting held at
Moscow, to which particular reference is
made BY one Of the border ruffans Of tia,
city in a communication TO the Democrat
yesterday morning. The rutisn glories in
his own shame
MORE RUFFIAkIsN.-We learn from our
friends who were present and addressed a
meeting of Republicans at Moscow la st Sat-
urdsy, that an attempt was made by some
ill-bred rufisns to break up the meeting by
continued interruption Of the speakers.--
These men % forced Mr.. Mills to stop
speaking. They said that no abolitionist
should speak in their School House, and OF.
fered the grossest insults TO those present
who desired 20 hear the speakers. ID. c.
Cloud told them that he would not be hiss
ed down nor denied the right to be heard
and forced them TO submit to the most
gcathing rebuke. They allowed themselves
to be lsmpooned with as good grace as pos
sible. These oatrages have become quite
common OF late. A party unable TO sus.
tain its principles before the people must
resort 10 some subterfuge by which to de-
ceiye. There is day Of retribution
awaiting these rufiians, not far distant.

The Question Settled.

1t is said that President Pierce, as well as his
cabinet, were anxious to smooth the way for the
incoming administration, and of late had put
forth all their efforts to that end. It is also
said that all difficulties between this government
and Great Britain had been definitely settled
Mr.. Dallas had the most positive instructions to
bring to close the long contested question of
Central American affairs, and we believe his in
structions have been promptly acted upon,
and an amicable adjustment has been made of
that question, far as relates to the cession of
the Bay Islands, the rcnunciation Of the Mos
quito protectorate, and the constitution of San
Juan as a free port. ~. , :.sHs. .- a,sr
The settlement of these questions, though
they do not cover the whole ground, will be re-
ceived with approval !by most of our citizens
friendly to an amicable intercourse between the
two countries. We are willing TO give credit
where and to the extent credit is due, and to the
administration of Franklin Pierce we would
award all the praise possible, but we are not vii
ling it should take too much credit for but little
work. That Mr.. Dallas has, in some degree,
been instrumental in bringing about this adjust
ment, may be true, but it is well known thvt
these questions have been under discussion for
some time, and the proposition and basis Of this
settlement was submitted by other parties, and
| under former administration. This settlement
will be set down as a '.feather in the cap" of the
retiring President, and when there are SO few,
we are not disposed to rob him of it, or be very
nice as to his real motive, be it selfaggrandize-
ment or obedience to the dictu of the powers
that be, preparatory to anticipated movements

. = - NAPLES, Oct II, 1856.
At two o'clock this morning we experienced
a shock of an earthquake so alarming in its ef-
fects that we all rushed in our night clothes into
the streets. 1t was only after being there some
seconds that we bethought ourselves of the situ-
alton we were in, and the majority of us, not
withstanding our fright, again entered our hou.
ses to procure clothing. The fog was SO dense
that we could not see each other at ten PAGES
distance. The dew also fell so heavily that even
umbrellas failed to protect US, ...
We remained in the open air until six in the
morning. Curious to say, the shock set all the
bells of the churches and houses ringing. The
alarm was SO great in Naples that the whole pop.
ulation rushed down to the beach, As we have
had two shocks-one slight and the other terri
ble-it is hoped they are over for the present.
The atmosphere, however, is heavily charged.
1t is as warm as in the month of August.

The correspondent of the Daily Times from
Washington, Of the 18th, says an impression still
prevails in some quarters that the government
Of the U. S. has assented to the Danish Sound
Dues Capitalization projects. This is an error
arising probably from the identity of the name
Of the British Minister at Copenhagen, with that
of Mr. Buchanan, late our Mhfister at London.--
Our government has not agreed to, and will not
become party to the capitalization scheme on
any terms, because to do so, would be to yield
entirely the principle upon which we resist the
Danish Exaction. 1t will agree however, to con-
stitute liberal sum annually to Denmark to-
