As the conduct in life ~ Mr. pbelns ~

as the conduct in life OF Mr.. Phelps has
Always been governed by fidelity to his own
convictions, SO when the american party
was organized. Mr.. Phelps connected him
self With it. That he did SO honestly and
sincerely, there can be no doubt. He is
not ambitious. and office was not his motive.
he Is neither poor, nor yet ayaricious, and
money was not bis motive. All those who
know Darwin Phelps will be convinced that
when be joined the American party he did
so under the impression that he was Joining
party under whose auspices the influence
OF true religion would be advanced, and
cerrect principles Of government vindicated
Hostility TO Roman Catholicism and foreign
influence was as much part of his honest
convictions as hostility to ignorance and
intemperancc.
The Office of Auditor General is one of
the most important to the commonwealth.
and it is one that peculiarly requires a
knowledge of the laws, habits of close in
Sestigation, industry, ana character Of |
stern aud uEbending integrity. The ac-
counts of all our public officers are exam
ned there and finally settled, and inrelli- |
gence, integrity and business habits, should |
be united in the person Of Auditor G neral. /
All these qualities are found in Mr.. Phelps
aud he ought TO be sustained by every
American, by every good citizen, and by
every good n.an in the Common wealth.

A New LIGHT IN ENGL sH LITERATuRE.-Thc
London Pres8 says that all the readable articles
in Household Words are written by young
fellow named Saa. This young literary Bohe-
IN an, as we have heard from other sources. is a
most remarkable instance OF literary IN m C,
and his frcuud ty is not less marvellous than his
initiative talents. He writes 81 much in the
style of either ID ckens or Thackeray. that it
would take sharp critic to distinguish the false
from the real author: and, what is more marvel
Gus still, is his faculty of initiating popular
actors.
People have wondered at the fertility Of in
vention and industry of Dickens. in writing so
many of the articles IN the Household Words,
while he was at the same time engaged in wr t.
ing his Bleak House and Little Dorrft. But IN
secret of his wo Idcrful tertil ty is explained by
the announcement Of the fact that he has an

DEATH OF Col. NATHAN BooNE.-The Spring
field (Mo.) Advertiser mentions the death OF
Col Nathan Boone youngest son OF Daniel
Boone, aged seventy-six years. Thus it is that
the families of those old pioneers, whose history
reads like romance, aud to whose ntrepdity
and marvellous powers Of endurance, aud un-
yielding determination, we owe the reclamlng
of the "bloody grounds" of Kentucky, and the
wilds of the West, from the dominion of ficrcely
savage tribes, are passing from among us
Boone is a name associated with much that is
manly and heroic and grand in pioneer charac-
ter. His descendants have been among the most
highly respected Of the advancing settlers in the
Valley of the Mississippi. HIS own history i'm
parts spirit and thrilling interest to many tale.
aud our own iavorte Missouri artist, Bingham,
had advanced his owa fam3 by the hstori
cal painting of Boone, on his way to the West,
in momcntary fear of attack from crafty foes,
as he passed the deliles where Indians love to
make their ambuscades
His son, Nathan Boone was marked by the
same active habits the same love of adventure,
aad the same taste for military service, that
characterised his father aid during the most
of his long l,fe. down to the war with Mexico,
he was employed in military duty upon the
frontier.

THE BRITISH DEMONSTRATION AGAINST PERSIA
"A letter to the New York Commercial AdUer-
tiser, dated London, October IA, says:
The intelligence of large expedition fitting
out at Bombay, to make demonstration against
Persia, has taken the London public rather 10y
surprise, although it was known that nothing
could have been worse than our relations with
Persia throughout the whole of the Russian war
Indeed that Kingdom is already little better than
a Russian province, and it is by this means that
the Gar is expected to give direction to his fu-
ture course of aggression. AS however, he is
not anxious to find himself in new difficulties
till he shall have rested from his late defeat,
and also matured the wonderful alliances against
England, which are some day to achieve the
most glorious results for absolutism in general
and Russia in particular, the determination of
the British Ministry TO enter the field at once
may embarass the progress of the movement
If similar promptitude had been shown in the
case of Turkey there would probably, even IN
that case have been no war.
The ostensible raason for the present demon
stration consists in being understood that the
Persians have attacked and occupied Herat
celebrated fortress on the frontier of Cabul the
integrity of which was some few years back
guaranteed to Dost Mohamed. There also re-
mains to be settled rupture which occurred
during the Russian war, the Persian Govern
ment having at that time for obvious purposes
picked quarrel with the Hon. Mr.. Murray, the
British Minister at Teheran.

THE LAST SUICIDE IN SAN FRANCsCo.-Th Sun
furnishes the following particulars of a case
which has excited some interest:
Yesterday Coroner Kent held an inquest on
the body of Bartholomew Walz, who attempted
to commit suicide on the 18th inst, by shooting
himself through the head, aud who died on Mon
day morning at one o'clock, from the effects of
his wounds. Dr.. Burns testified that, at the
time of the occurrence. he ATTENDED on the
wounded man, and desired TO remove him to
the County Hospital. Waz declined being re-
moved, as he had sufficient funds for medical
attendance, and desired the Doctor to take
charge of the same, as follows: 1882 in cash y
ounces of gold, dust, and a note payable on dc
mand, dated December 9th, 1856, on Messrs.
Thompson q Osborne of Old Gulch, for the sum
of 5000, with interest at the rate of seven per
cent per annum. He declined to answer ques-
ton as to the cause of the rash act. The day
before death ensued Walz deeply regretted
shooting himself and hoped TO recover. The
jury returned verdict of suicide. committed

the 10th Of November 1t appears that slight

place, though tits expected to break out shortly
with renewed strength. Many families, taking

THE CENTRAL SUN.-All scientific men have
maintained that there must be central point
if not central sun, around which the whole uni
verse revolves Meeder who is unquestionably
one of the greatest astronomers ever known,
has given this subject his special attention; ard
he has come to the conclusion that Aloyane,
the principal star in the groupe known as Pleia-
des, now occupies the centre of gravity. and is
at present the grand central sun around which
the whole starry universe revolves. This is one
of the most interesting and important astronom-
ical announcements ever made, though tits very
likely that, but for the eminent scientific posi-
ton of the anthor, it would be treated as vision
airy. Another interesting statement in this con-
nection is made by Mr.. Thompson, one OF the
physicists, who, with Carnot, Soule. Meyer and
Others has largely contributed towards estab-
fishing the relations between heat and mechan-
ical force, and who has extended his research
to the heat emitted by the sun which heat, he
observes, corresponds to the development OF
mechanical force; which, in the space of abont
100 years is equivalent to the whole active force
required to produce the movement of all the
planets National Lrltelsgencer.

ANOTHER CASPER HAUsER SToRY.--A letter in
the Ahegeimene ZetUi,g tells most romantic sto-
ry of girl who was found in November, 1858,
wandering about near the village of Weiskrchen
in the Banat almost in a savage state, unable
to speak intelligibly, though she was full grown
The girl has been carefully educated, since that
time, by Friedrich Eek, the teacher 10 whom she
was colfded by the municipal authorities Of
Ofenbach. She is now able to give some ac-
count of herself, and the result has been pub
lished by Herr Eek in pamphlet just printed
at Frankfort. What can be collected from her
is that before she was live years old she was
seized and carried away from her mother, who
lived, according to her description, III large
house, like castle, with three towers, and prob
ably situated somewhere in Hungary.
Some fifteen or sixteen years atterward she
lived in place underground, in the midst OF a
forest, where she was tended by an old woman
called Bertha and man named Eleazar used
to bring food and clothes for both of them
About seven years after her arrival there, lit
tie baby, two or three months DID, named Adolf
was brought to the subterranean dwelling, and
remained there from that time. No Instruction
was given to either Of the children, but they
were kindly treated In October 1858. their
foster mother Bertha. took the girl out of the
cavern, put her into a carriage drawn by two
horses, and conveyed her to the place where
she was abandoned, near AschaffenLurg whence
she wandered about until she was found by the
country people. The little boy was left behind
in the underground abode, Snch is the story
which Herr Eek has been able to gather from
the girls broken recollectons. The Austrian
Government has directed all possible research
es to be made by the local authorities to clear
up the mysterious affair.
