might get up to see about it. Upon speaking to him
and shaking him he did not reply, when light was
procured and the unfortunate found to have had
his head literally blown to pieces. Hissson was

AN AMERICANS OPINION OF ENGLAND.-The fol
lowing homethrust at John Bull is from Oliphant's
work on Minnesota. 1t was not long since copied
into the London Times without comment, but why, is
more than we say:
Wal, you Britishers are cute you 60 on the high
moral ticket. You call annexation robbery and terri
toral aggression but there amt power in creation
that's swallowed more of other peoples country with
out choking than you have when nobody was looking
particular And now you're agoing to fight for civil
ization by protecting the most barbarous power in
Europe, and for liberty by allying yourself with a
French despot and q Mahommedan tyrant; but chew
if liberty amt long sight better off in the hands
of that old possum Nicholas than such meay mouthed
hypocrites. You understand stabbing great princi-
pies in the dark, you do Liberty is all bunkun with
you If it amt, what do you go scraping and crying
to all the despots of Europe for when you could raise
tbe hull continent in the cause Of freedom if you had
mind to? Why don't you choke off your privileged
classes and set your oppressed white ngger free and
give back to the black nggers in the Indies the
try you've robbed them Of, instead of screechng at
US, and coming over here with your long faces,
almighty jaw and unremtting lies about slavery and
Cuba? There's no sin in creation your no-souled,
canting, bellows-wnded Parliament won't commit, if
they can make darned cent by it. IN =

The Rio DE JANEIRo AFFAIR.-The Washington
Organ has a letter received from an officer on board
the United States ship Savannah, which gives some
additional intelligence relating to the difficulty that
occurred on the llth February last Rio de aneiro
between the American Commodore and the British
Admiral. Admiral johnson, it seems, alleging that
he had reason to believe that the steamer America be-
longing to the United States then lying in the harbor
at Rio, was Russian pryateer sent word to Commo-
dore sater that he felt it his duty to search her To
this message Commodore saIter returned answer that
under no condition should he allow an English officer
to search vessel bearing an American flag.
Capt. Hudson, of the America, came on board tile
Savannah and denied the charge. He was perfectly
willing to be searched by the officers of the Savannah
the custom-house officers Of Rio; but he would not
submit to anything of the kind from the English Or
French, and threatened, if they sent searching
party on board, to throw them overheard ,,r
On the morning Of the 12th another message was
received from Admiral johnson, who was not satisfied
with Captain Hudsons denial of the charge, but still
insisted on the right to search the America. Commo
dore Salter sent back warm answer, which was met
by threat the part of the Admiral to follow over
haul and search the America at sea. This caused the
Commodore to cease all communication with the Eng
sh and bend all his energies to preparing his ship
Admiral by British lieutenant, but the letter was
returned unopened. At the time of writing the ship
was ready for sea, the boats being all hoisted I'M and
the ship unmoored, riding at single anchor.
The America was to sail the next morning, and tow
the Savannah to sea with her, the Commodore de-
clarng that though the English force was treble his
own, that he would fire upon them at the first attempt
to make foreible search The officers and crew Of
the Savannah were excited by the prospect Of an
gagement with such odds, but hopeful Of victory.
Such was the certainty Of an engagement that q
number of the foreign residents at Rio had chartered
steamboat to accompany the two squadrons to sea,
in order that they might witness the engagement z
It is proper to add that Lieut.. LIE Roy and Boat
swain Whitaker, whoexamined the America under the
orders of Commodore Salter reported in writing that
they had examined every part of the vessel and that
no vestige Of the alleged ammunition or guns were
found. ~ -"

AN INDECENT T1RADE.-The New York Tribune Of
the l1th, speaking Of speech delivered by Senator
Douglass indulges in the following infamous TRADE:

Indeed to characterize the author of this speech needs the
vocabulary highly esteemed in good soeietyA
Of whom the devil might obtain improving hints in his
line be dainty speaking would do Justice
subject. Douglas brains majesty So
had rdas that other Arnold who tried to sell
Liberty before him. But in the Of the Illinois Sena
the brains and unwahed They also ID the
place chronological system founded his brain
would be only applicable Yahoo His bull dog mentality
acobnaton Of the sWineherd and the Calhan One
he Is capable So he is He do certain things we'll
He frame foundation and build thereon rs good
structure Of lies other man witness his late "
heers like fish hardan witness his speeches IN the
alsehood with unryaled skill from the delicate note of
ing in domain of human effort. If the
devil should open Crystal Palace and premiums
Douglas would command them all this branch Of manufacture
Such abuse as the foregoing will not injure Senator
Douglas in the estimation Of honest and sensible men
On the contrary it will disgust all classes save the
mad fanatics the ccnscienceless pharisees who
impose their bogus philanthropy upon deluded vota-
ries aspure gold. ~
We have no pariality for Senator Douglas but are
free to admit the conviction that he must possess good
qualities of heart and mind to call forth the malig
$nant abuse Of the Tribune The calumnies of that
journal are the best Recommendation a public man
can haYe. @lTl G{f#gsS n 1f-ss

THE NEW Collins STEAMER We find in the New
York papers, of the sth full accounts Of the launch
Of thenew steamship Adriatc, built by our country
man, George Steers, the successful architect Of 80
many maritime glories. The launch occurred onthes
7th and the Times says there were thirty thousand
people present. ~ si4$ss y 81. y
AT 10 o'clock, the Adriatic had not moved. An
were wishing she would and hoping the launch would
be successful, but the time had not arrived. BY
Cuba was launched successfully from the adjoining
yard Of Mr.. VIM A. Webb, and was greeted with loud
cheers. S$S 83ss s3$s5 f3Ss .4i
Meanwhile, roR-boats with their four Or Eve, and
steamers with their hundreds, with colors lying were
gliding to and fro in 'front.' adding greatly the inte
rest, and enhancing the pieturesque beauty Of the
scene. And well might the scene emble those in
grandeur, for the trinmphs OF our merchant marine
appreciated, and they were there to witness the
first entry Of whatthe believed to- be the Queen of
naval architectural beauty upon her own domain.
While they waited the WorkEnen were busy and
when the tide was right the last clog was removed,
and she hastened to future home amid the ringing
of bells, the hrilIpping ofsteanw whistles, the boom
ing of cannon, and the enthusiastic shoutngs OF ade
lighted multitude. Onward shewent across the WataF
all other craft making way for her. When she had
reached the middle of estream those on hoard let
go her right bower anchor, but she went dragging
it with her. They let go her left, but she dragged
that also, and continued onward until she had destroy
ed portion of Brooklyn pier, made the others
trembe, and satisfied an interested party that she
bound to run down all opposition. Then she stopped
Many were afraid she might have sustained some in
jury, but those who examined her declared she had
not received even 8 scratch. When this had been
made known the multitude began to disperse, and at
IL O'Clock but few remained. VI
Her machinery is in course of construction at sthe
Novelty Works, and tits believed she will lie ready
to make her trial trip four months hence. She Is to
have two oscilatng engines the cylinders Of which
will be one hundred inches in diameter and twelve
feet stroke. Their nominal horse power win be
1,O00-actual power 000 She will have eight tubu
| lar low-pressuTe boilers, which will be worked at
thirty lbs to the square inch though capable Of bear
| ing sixty lbs. f's7ta 9s5s 3si E
Mr. Steers, the architect and builder, in reply to
some enquiries arose and stated that he was native
