The inauguration of the Franklin statue at
Boston, has been the occasion for revlvlng an
incident connected with the life Of the phl!oso-
pher. His only son. William, was governor of
New Jersey at the time of the declaration OF
Independence, and did what he could to pre-
vent the legislative assembly of New Jersey
from sanctoning the proceedings of the general
congress of Philadelphia These efforts, how
ever, did but little to stay the tide OF popular
sentiment in favor Of resistance to tyranny, and
soon involved him in difficulty. He was de-
posed from Office by the wings to g i've place
to William Livingston, and sent prisoner to
Connecticut, where he remained about two
years in East Windsor, in the house of captain
Ebenezer Grant, near where the Theological
seminary now stands. In 1778 he was ex-
changed, and soon after went to England
There he spent the remainder of his life, re-
eeiving pension from the British government
for tie losses he had sustained by his fidelity
He died in 1918, at the age of 82: The oppo-
sition Of the son to the cause the father advo'
Gated produced AN estrangement between them
and in Franklin's will, speaking of his son. he
says, ..The part he acted against me in the late
war, which is of public notorlety, will account
for my leaving him no more of an estate he
endeayored to deprive me off,

ii prssaming tina. the Presidential Canvass
hiss ended as the table below would Indicate.
Pennsylvania has been reputsd in ouot, bus
the heavy Fillmore diversion in Philadelphia
aud the southeastern portion Of the state - too
srsas to be overcome, and has settled the
question. The election has been decided by
the people, as we never entertained doubt
bu, il would be. Kentucky, Tennessee,
Louisiana and Florida, reported - probable
for Fillmore, have unquestionably gone for
Buchanan BY decided votes. Maryland may
have gone for Fillmore, but it is yet doubtful.
II 90, then Fillmore gets electoral votes,
which Is inst so many more than we ever be-
lievcd he would get. We carry all the Free
States this side Of tho Paoi6 but three, and
saould certainly have carried them all on =
straight, honest, conceded issue, with the
third ticket out OF the field. Nothing is
more certain than that, as no intelligent hon.
est man can doubt. So that we Republicans,
though the election is lost, barely lost, los,
BY lies and fraud At that, have every reason
to feel proud and strong.

is inexcusable even in u prairie region-it is

be stripped OF timber entirely. Enough

A Fac. STATE IN TExAs.-Somc may look
upo such thing as Free State OF Wes-
tern Texas rs improbable, particularly at n
time when such strenuous efforts are being
made to carry slavery into Kansas, where
slavery docs not now exist BY positive Law.
Yet there is = strong probability that such an
event will occur within the next ten years,
Oar opinion il based upon the fact that for
cgn immigration IL greater than domestic,
by at least ten to one; and upon the we'll
known fact that foreign immigration is OPP
posed to slavery, from principle, prejudice
and education. Aud there are many Of the
Immigrants from the older States opposed ia
slavery, who quietly tolerate it 80 long as /,
is an institution Of the State, but who will
vote no slavery when the question comes up
whether Western Texas shall be free o,
slave State. This fact Is not general,
known; if so, it is not duly considered. Tn,
vote Of the adopted citizens Of Texas nov
numbers Mt least twelve thousand. In lesl
than three years IL will be increased to tire,
times that number, unless the naturalization
