ARRIVAL OF THE ATLANTIC.
PROCLAMATION OF PEACE.
ADVANCE IN BREADSTUFFS.
New YORK, May 12.

New YORK, May H.
The steamer Atlantic, from Liverpool,
has arrived, with Liverpool dates to the
3Oth ult.
The Asia arrived out on Monday.
The principal feature of the news is the
official publication of the treaty of Peace,
and the formal proclamation of peace. The
appended conventions are also provided for.
Tie first has reference to the passage of the
Dardanelles; the second is for arranging
the details of naval force in the Black Sea;
and the third declares that the Aaland Isles
are not to be fortified.
There is also an important declaration
of maritime law, viz: abolishing priva,eer-
ing, and providing that neutral flags shall
protect all carg"es except contraband arti-
cles, with the addition that neutral goods,
under the eLcmy's flag, are exempt from
capture.
The Treaty itself is precisely the same
as sent by the last steamer.
The following is the substance of the
missing articles of the Treaty of Peace:
Art. 5 grants full and entire amnesty
to those subjects who may have been com
promised by any participation whatsoever
IN the events of the war in favor of the en-
envy, and it is especially understood that
such amnesty shall extend to the subjects
Of each of the belligerent parties who may
have entered during the war to be employ
ed in the service of one or the other bellig
erents.
s. Prisoners Of war shall be immedi-
ately given up on either side.
T. Declares the Sublime Porte admit
ted to participate in the advantages of the
public law sy stem of Europe
Their Maleslies engage each on his own
part to respect the independence and terri
torial integrity OF the Ottoman Empire,
and guarantee in commerce strict obser-
vance of that engagement. and will IN con-
sequence consider any act tending to It's
violation question OF general interest.
8. If there should arise between the
Sublime Porte and any other signing pow
er. misunderstanding which might endan-
ger the maintenance of these relatives, the
Sublime Porte and each of such powers,
before having recourse to the use OF force
shall afford the other contracting parties an
opportunity Of preventing such an extrem-
ity by means of their mediation
The following additional article has been
rendered imperative by the necessity Tor
employing transports for the evacuation OF
the enemies, but was evidently an after
thought consequent upon suddenly sug
gested idea:
1.-The stipulation of the Convention re-
speeding The. Straits, signed this day, shall
not be applicable to vessels OF war employ

The Know Notbines are much displeas

The Know Nothings are much displeas-
ed with the result Of the Fusion Conyen-
ton at indianapolis, on the first inst. They
were sold to the Abolitionis.s, without
compensation or promise of any, by VIM.

brethren, the Fusions were afraid to trust
him: he therefore received no support in
the Convention. but is now receiving the
maledictions of the injured party" The
Vcvay RereiIle, anenthusiastic Know Moth
ing sheet, gives their President ticker in
the following manner:
1--WE were mortified, as were the Amer
leans from all parts of the State, at Indian
apolis on Wednesday night last, to hear
VIM. Sheets, President of the State Coun-
ell, declare that "the question of human
slavery was the great and paramount ques-
ton before the people Of Indiana" This
man Sheets has baselv betrayed the Amer
lean party, and we hope the President of
the National Council will lose no time in
demanding of him the Charter, together
with the books and documents pertaining
to the same We MUST and WILL have a
State Council in Indiana that viii represent
the views of the National American party.
Sheets was a candidate for Governor,
and then Lieutenant Governor, and hoped
by double dealing to be nominated; but ne-
Their Americans, Republicans, or Adolf
tionists were willing to trust him. AS a
bite for the Republican support in the con-
vention next day, he stated in his speech
"Wednesday night that he was going to
bring the great American party of Indiana
to the support Of the Republican ticket
We trust the American party of Indiana
will lid itself of all such political dema-
gogues."

Dreadful Accident OH the Panama Rail-
road---5O Persons Killed and 100 Bad
ly Wounded.
New YORK. Nav IS

NEW ORR, May 10.
The Tribune contains the following ac-
count, from an eyewitness, of the railroad
accident at Panama, dated Aspinwall, 9TH:
Yesterday a. M, the passengers who left
New York April 2lst, started from this
place for Panama in three separate trains
The first contained the mails, and the 9TH
ers passengers and baggage. The two last
were filed with passengers. After pro-
ceeding little over half way to Panama,
the engine of the freight train ran off the
track in such position that it could not be
replaced without good deal of delay
The conductors of the passenger trains
ran back to Aspinwall We were within
about two miles of this place when ter
rible crash occurred. | was seated in one
of the rear cars, and, Immediately looking
out of the window, | could see the cars
rushing one upon the other. until nine in
number were demolished. Every car was
crowded, containing at least 600 persons.
At present it is impossible to estimate tho
number Of killed and wounded, or their
names There we've not less than $40
persons in the cars which wee shiveret
to atoms. 1t must be a low estimate to say
that 50 were killed and at least 100 badly
wounded. 1t seems almost miraculous
that SO many escaped with their lives"

There will be Democratic Conven ion
at Bradford, on the 10th of June next, to
nominate Candidate for Congress. There
is no question in our mind, but Col. Walker
is the choice of the Democracy of this part
of the district, and should he be the nomi-
nee, we should regard his success as Ger
tain, SO far as this county is concerned; but
should majority of the delegates prefer
Judge Stewart or any other sound Nation
al Democrat to Col. Walker, the Democ-
racy of Marshall will cheerfully acquiesce
in their decision. and will give good ac-
count of themselves in October next.

A CHASE AFTER AN UNCHASTE WIFE,

A CHASE AFTER AN UNcHASrE WIFE
A few days since. the Chronicle says, a
person named Garfield arrived in this city
in pursuit of his wife, who had clipped
from his home iii Fremont, Ohio, in com
pany with a man named Lorenzo ID. Park
err By the help of constable Pierce, of
this city, the husband traced the seducer,
on Saturday last, to the eastern depot, and
after procuring a disguise, started for Sa-
lem in a chaise. At that city the man
was found, and the wife was seen in his
company to enter the Marblehead train
The pursuing party also stepped on board,
and so completely was the husband dis
guised, that the two parties fell into con-
versation on the way. Arrived at Marble
head, all hands put up at the same hotel,
and dined and supped together. In the e.
vening constable Pierce procured the as
sistance of a Marblehead officer, and at
eleven O'Clock the whole three made up a
little surprise party and visited the gull
ty pair in their chamber. The appartion
was so sudden and unexpected that the
man tainted away, but the woman content
ed herself with violent screams. Mr. Can
field regained possession of his child, q
boy of ten years, and with him returned
TO Ohio, leaving the woman to follow out
her free love- doctrine with her paramount,
when he gets out of Salem jail, where he
at present resides.-Boston Times.

THE PRISONER.

Some two years ago while DR.. JOHN B..
PHILLIPS of Kenneth Square Pa, was trav-
cling in Switzerland, he was suddenly ar
rested and thrown into prison, without the
least reason icing assigned for so doing.
Being confined in a close, damp cell of one
of those baronial prisons, and being sub
jected to all the gross insults and ou;rages
of the officers and soldiers, his suferings
were such, as no language could depict.
On being released, he learned that he had
been arrested on the suspicion that he was
the Italian Patriot, MAssENA, travelling in
disguise.
Alone and silent, sat the prisoner pale,
While weary thoughts his only vigils keep,
No fYendly nigh hear his wall,
No knder voice to sympathize and weep.
Like felon bound, the CALLING chain he wore
Within foreign prison dark and wild,
While cruel soldiers guard the iron door,
Which shut from Heavens light her free born
child.
His fate unknown, and cen the reason why,
He, thus condemned, must wear those heavy
bands,
Why doomed, like murderer, in that cell to lie,
Since blood, nor unjust act, e'er stained his
hands.
What deeds of crime and darkness are not thine
Oh Tyranny. What justice hast thou ever
shown
To poor humanity unless of Kingly line,
Unless securely mantled by some mitred
throne.
Thus thought the stranger prisoner as he lay,
Tossed by fever, which those damps had
breathed,
Perhaps, before me, oft the Patriots stay
Within these walls, kind death, alone, re-
lieved."
Perhaps, within this cell, Tell has lam,
While wife and babes on distant mountains
weep,
Weep, and for the absent call-but call in vain;''
And thinking thus, he sank in quiet sleep.
Now, quick as the metcors flash in the sky,
New visions of gadness come over his soul
To dry up the tcar-drops that dimmcd his dark
eye,
And loosen the letters, that tyrants control
Now far, far behind him the prison walls lay,
And the Soldiers harsh words arc remember
ed no more,
For his bark, on the blue wave, is bounding a.
way,
Still bearing him on to his own native shore.
In the pride of his freedom-the pride of his
birth
Once more he is treading the land of the free
Where the homeless find homes, and the exile
of earth,
May scOrn the base trappngs of proud tyranny.
On his green native hills stands the home of hi.
childhood,
And thithcr his footsteps he hastily turns
For Ger the deep meadow--across the dark wild
wood
True hearts of affection in tenderness burn
Oh! wake not the sleepcr-disturb not his dream
ing,
Let visions like incense invitingly rise,
But huzza. for our country, where Liberty's bea

Curious INSTINCT OF PLANTs.-Hoare,
in his treatise on the vine, gives a striking
exemplication Of the instinct of plants. A
bone was placed in the strong, but dry clay
of vine border. The vine sent out a
leading. or tap root. directly through the
clay to the bone. In its passage through
the clay, the main root threw out no fbres;
but when it reached the bone, il entirely
covered it, by degrees, with the most deli
cate and minute iibres, like lace. each one
sucking at pore in the bone. On this lus-
cious morsel of marrow bone would the
vine continue to feed as long as any nutri-
ment remained to be extracted.
