ANECDoTE OF OLD VIRGINIA. Several years
since, there was very exciting debate in the
House Of Delegates OF Virginia upon H The
Wllmot Proviso and kindred Resolutions
The most ultra Pro. Slavery sentiments we've
expressed, and some of the members rendered
themselves ridiculous in their laudation of
the " peculiar Institution" During the
midst OF this exciting discussion, a large par
ty OF gentlemen assembled at the house of
distinguished citizen of Richmond, and
among them were many leading members of
the Legislature During the evening the con.
versatiop turned upon the discussion going on
in the Assembly, and prominent member
remarked, "we are making ourselves foolish
IN the eyes of the world, besause it might be
inferred from the character of the discussion
IN the House. that in the estimation Of the
Assembly, there was nothing so important
to the welfare of Virginia. as to pres erye in
tast the system Of slavery. Whereas" said
he, "we all know that it retards our progress,
and is the Very incubus that presses US down
and the very thing OF all others, which we
desire to get rid Of
On another occasion of interest last winter,
a distinguished member of the House of Del
egatesr IN speaking upon resolution to raise
Committee to provide measures to g resist
the aggressions OF the North" exclaimed that
He "oulu raise wall OF adamant as high
as Heaven, to shut out all intercourse with the
North" After he sat down. a friend from one
OF the Northern States, who happened to be
present, said to him, g What means this wall
OF adamant sir :" To which he good hui
moredly replied, Buncombe, ir,"-''Noth-
ing but Buncombe," These two anecdotes
speak volumes, and give more truthful in
sight into the real sentimentof the people of
Virginia, in regard to domestic slavery, than
can be learned from the public speeches of
her politicians, or the insane rawlings of the
Richmond press.-N. Y. Courier and Enquir-

To satisfy the atlas that no "mere personal
differences" had anything to do with the matter,
we will state what we well know here, that Col.
Dewitt, so far fromshaving any personal feeling,
did not desire denomination, and would have
given MI. Chaplin a cheerful support had not Mr..
Chapin's friends, knowing these facts, treated
the Fremont Americans Of the district and Col
Dewitt also with disrespect, and this too in the
cipt.
According to this, then, the people are to un.
derstand that Col. Dewitt is to run for Congress,
not because he desires an election or because his
friends desire it, but just out of spite The Col
onel is kind hearted man, and we don't believe
the nsinuation is deserved

Convention of 1908, concerning persons en-

The RESULT IN PENNSYLVANIA, AND ITS
CAUSE -Benjamin F. Butler Eq., of Lowell,
the most knowing and influential man in the Bu-
chanan ranks in Massachusetts,, and delegate to
the convention atCincinnati, on Wednesday, said,
while speaking Of the Pennsylvania election. that
it would be found that toenty thousand members
Of the Order Of United americans, toso had been
reckoned, up to the day Of the election, as Fillmore
men, had voted the Buchanan State ticket.
This statement, says the Boston Telegraph,
comes from good authority, and what is more to
the purpose, it is intrinscally prabable Upon
no other ground can the immense Buchanan ma.
jorties in the Eastern countries be accounted for
The Fillmore party, by the acknowledgment Of
its leaders, has only one mission in this contest,
and that is to "kill the Black Republicans" Its
leaders are under pay Of the Buchanan party, and
they have transferred thousands of voters into
the ranks of the Pro. Slavery Democracy.

OCTOBER II. Is5 6.

FURTHER FoREIGN NEws.-A WARLIKE
RUSSIAN MANlFEsTo.-Net0 York, Oct IA
diplomatic circular, signed Nesselrode has
been sent to all the Courts of Europe, setting
forth what is to be the foreign policy of the
Russian government. Some of the British
Journals interpret it as, in effect, a challenge
to England and France. for it says in sub
stance that if the Western powers attempt to
coerce the King of Naples into the adoption
OF reforms necessary to prevent an outbreak in
Italy, or, in other words, general CONFUSION
throughout Europe, Russia viii espouse the
cause OF King Bomba, on the principle that
he is doing what he likes with his owR.
The spirit of this manifesto gives color to
the belief which prevails that Russia will send
her fleet for this purpose, to the BAY of Ma
Piles, to oppose those of England and france,
and collision may arise, the consequences of
which cannot we'll be over-estimated. The
Circular is addressed TO all Russian represen-
tatives abroad. 1t was read by Baron Bru-
now to the French Minister of Foreign At
fairs, but was not otherwise officially COM
municated to that government. a distinction
is thus sought to be established between
simple despatch sent to a diplomatic agent,
and formal notification directly addressed to
the government The zeal question is, how
ever, whether the Circular itself is, is not,
correct exponent OF the pohcy OF Russla.
From the Daily Ne'os The text of this
manifesto is neither more nor less than SOL
emn declaration, " naughty in tone and def.
ant in language Of the part Russia intends
to assume in the political transactions of Eu-
rope, and denunciation but thinly yelled un-
der stately courtesies of diplomatic style,
against the interference of the two great pow
ers in Naples, and the continued occupation
of Greece. The manifesto contains doctrines
of 1856, which are but the echo of the Holy
Alliance of 1921, but the madness of the pres
ent tyranny is unbearable, and the Western
powers will be forever disgraced, if they suffer
themselves to be deferred from this great and
mighty writ, de lumatico inqawendo, by the
miserable fictions of the Holy Alliance, and
the naughty menaces of the Gear.

NARROW ESCAPE AT NIAGARA FALIs.-The
Rochester Democrat has a thrilling commun-
ication giving an account of a thrilling Incl.
dent at Niagara Falls, on Sunday. 1t repre-
SCENTS that at about 5 o'clock, p. M, a number
OF persons were on Luna Island, and among
them couple of boys at play. One of them
fell into the river, only thirty or forty feet
above the Falls, His screams drew the at
tention of others near by, among whom was a
person named p. P. jackson, who was only
fifteen feet above the Falls. He at once
jumped into the water, and maintained his
footing until the boy came down against him,
when he seized the boy and threw him on
shore. The boy began to cry, and ran off, SO
that his name could not be ascertained. 1t
was all Jackson could do to get on shore
again, the water running very swift
jackson is the man who used TO swim about
in the immediate vicinity of the Falls, to the
terror of all spectators, last summer.
