Col. BIssELL.-We copy the following


from the Quincy Herald of the 18th:
We learn from a gentleman who arrived
Yesterday on the cars, that Col. Bissell has
addressed letter to the leading Black Re-
puolicans of Springfield, expressing doubts
of his eligibility to the office of Governor,
and also a desire and probable d"termina-
ton to decline the canvass. 1t is sa q, FUR
ther, that Judge Logan, of Springfield, I'M
hestatingly expresses the opinion that Bis
sell is not eligible under the Constitution,
and that every te east for him will be
vote thrown away. 1t is also stated, that In
his letter to his political friends at Spring
field, Bissell says explicitly that if elected
lie could not take the oath prescribed by the
constitution, to wit: that ne had mot fought
a duel, nor sent or accepted challenge to
fight duel" On Wednesday it was gene
rally believed at Springfield that Bissell
would withdraw, and that Hon. Mr.. Lincoln
would be substituted in his place upon the
fusion ticket.
We have seen nothing in the Springfield
papers to confirm this report. But that
Bisscll regards himself as ineligible under
our constitution there can be little doubt.
1t can be proved by thousand witnesses
that during the canvass in 1862 in his con-
gressional district he used it as an argument
in favor of his being elected to congress,
that, to defend the character of his state
! abroad, he had made himself ineligible to
office under her constitution at home.

\ Fusion FizzEE.-There was quite blow
in the Chicago papers few days ago about
a great Fremont demonstration, at Newark,
in Kendall county. We concluded there
must have been thousand people present,
and that fusionism had great time gener-
ally. a more reliable account, however,
says there were just 60 persons present
and the meeting was held in small Baptist
church. The principal Spokesman were two
or three preachers, who spent the afternoon
in wranging over resolution, hat We

DEMOCRACY OF PrrxAM-ASoTuEE 16 STAR
FLAG.-A correspondent Of the Chicago
Times writes from Putnam county, Aug.
18th:
Mr.. Osgood, the democratic candidate for
Congress in this t3d) district, spoke at Hen
nepin yesterday (Au.Ust ~, to an immense
assemblage-as many, think, as 600
which is ''sorne," considering the size OF the
place. The day before yesterday. he spoke
at Sheffield, Bureau county; and here All
incident, happened, which forcibiy illustrates
the position Of certain sectional! party,
now IN the fed.
The sectionalsts raised large pole, with
the tlagC) OF our country(J unfurled from
it. THIS fag hat sirtsen stars on IL, anil one
1rge Giaek IN the centre Mr.. osgood,
in his speech abiding to it, said tha, he did
not know what it meant, unless it was in
tended TO represent an index 10 their black
hearted principles.
At Henncpin, Mr.. O-good made very
able speech, defining the democratic princi-
pies fully and fairly, and also showing up
Mr.. Lovcjoy in his true light-showing that
LovejOy had been an Abo!it!on>t, showing
The. lIr had sold himself to Long John
and the Fusion party; showing that he had
spoken in such malicious terms of treason
and dlSrespect of our high Executive, which
in less lenient country or government
would have punished him with death.
speak the voice Of the Boilers and ali
National men Of this section, when ! say
that Owen Lovcjoy is the most consummate,
hypocritical, di>unon scoundrel that ever
battered himself away for office. Why,
Mr.. Editor. John Wentworth himself is
man whom have known for the last fifteen
years, and know him to be, God knows,
mean enough, yet would rather trust him
for Treasurer than this same Owen Lovcjoy
for Street Commissioner. An honester,
more sincere act the Republicans never were
known to 20 than to bolt him. Give US
any one else but him-Oaeen Lorejoy-and
we'll go him'-but not him, ugh, ugh
Can't 90 it, no how :" That's the Kind of
feeling with which a great portion of the
party receive this man. That nomination
has settled their hash" in this district
The gallant democracy must triumph here.

the manager win retrieve his losses, which have
been severe enough ito weigh royal merchant
down.
In the matter Of new plays the extension ofthe
copyright to dramatic authors has given quite an
impetus to that style of literature, although but
few Of the new native productions have yet been
placed before the public. Mr.. Brougham has
brought out larger number of new plays than
any other manager, and among them successful
local comedy by Mr.. Cornelius Mathews. MIR.
Burton has given us "Self" a comedy in three
acts, by Mrs. Bateman; Mr.. Stuart five act
comedy by Mr.. Lester, and Miss Laura Keene,
"Young New York; three act comedy, by Mr..
Wilkins. The last named play, now in its third
week, has had the longest run Of any
that this list includes all the original pro-
auctions of native authors so far pre-
sented. There are, however, great many in
the hands of the managers. They all have manu-
script enough sent in to afford them pleasant read
ing by the domestic hearth for the next twelve
luOutu. Dul wi Huo u hCV PAuy, AAo oAUvS
Actress" underlined he has accepted five act
comedy, Fascination" Mr.. Stuart has new
local comedy in three acts, and Mr.. Brougham
viii shortly give us his first attempt at a roman
tic five act blank verse play, called 'All's Fair
in Love-" So there will be novelty enough for
the next two or three months to come.
New York is pretty well supplied with good ac-
tors and actresses, as well as theatres and play
writer's. We have the finest actresses on the Eng
fish stage now here, in the persons Of Miss Laa-
"a Keene, Mrs. Z. L. Davenport and Miss Agnes
Elsworthy. Then for actors there are Burton, L
L. Davenport, Anderson, Jordan, Lester, Blake,
Wacot Fisher, and many more. Mr.. Burton has
brought over for us Miss Marshall, jolly Lon
don soaJrette, while Miss Keene has introduced
new face ON her boards-that of Mr.. Charles
Wheatleigh, an excellent comedian.
We expect that each succeeding year will bring
still more dramatic talent to New York, for the
reason that it is better paid here than elsewhere
All these things work together for the benefit Of
the city, and all respectable public amusements
should receive the warmest support from our citi-
zens In the hands of such managers as we have
in New York, the theatre the opera house, and
the concert room may be made efficient co-work-
ers with the press in advancing the civilization,
the refinement, the prosperity, the true glory Of
the city, and the republic of which it is the me-
tropolis
We trust that everybody will remember this
that all the theatres will be well supported, and
that the managers may find at the end Of the sea-
son comfortable balance on the right side OF their
cash accounts.

French might win higher position than the
one he occupies, and reap reward common
surate to his astounding merits. There Is
plan by which he might so illustrate his name
that his past successes would seem insigS
nificant in comparison with those to come. There
is an act by which he might win such
fame that he would rise far above mere mOnarchs
and dynasties, and have but one rival, one equal
in history Were the Emperor Of the French,
satisfied of the futility OF dynastc dreams to set
his whole energies to the work of preparing the
French people for democratic regime by the es-
tablisbment Of free local and municipal institu-
ti0ns gradual education Of the masses to the
proper use of political power, and slow re-
moval of the existing restraints on the liberty OF
speech and the press; then, at the end of given
period, to appear in public, and voluntarily to
relinquish his title and his power, and lay him
self the corner stone Of new French republic, on
a solid social basis, he would have done what no
other man in history has ever done, and would
rank in the eye Of the calm thinker, even higher
than Washington.
OF the political effects of such step we for
bear to comment: it is to the personal conse-
quences SO far as the Emperor is concerned that
we desire to direct attention But to take such
step as this, extraordinary genius is needed.
MUNICIPAL. ANARcHY.-Let it be well remem-
bered by the people Of New York that the state
of horrible anarchy under which we live may be
perpetuated or aggravated or remedied by the
Legislature at the coming session. We are in
deep disgrace it is true, but thereis alower depth;
we are shamefully governed, but worse govern
ment still may be conceived by powerful ina
ginatiop We have seven or eight despots, who
filch our money from us, and laugh at us when we
complain, and administer our affairs in the most
corrupt and negligent manner, and are as indie
pendent of us as the Emperor Of the French or
the Sultan; who knows but we might have
score? There lie in the docket two hundred in
dictments procured by the Mayor against gam
bling houses and two thousand which have been
all unprosecnted, unnotced; who can tell
whether, under new system, any offenders would
be prosecuted at all?
We say this because we have reason to believe
that the charter which will be passed by the Legs-
lature this winter will be really worse than the pre-
sent one. The controlling party in the Legisla-
ture knows what is right perhaps, but they are
afraid of doing it because they fancy they might,
by doing So oblige Mayor Wood, who differs with
them ON the Kansas question. We are to be
cursed with fresh complication Of anarchy on
account of Mayor Woods views about Kansas,
or rather on account of the views Of the repubi-
can Legislature touching Mayor Woods OPT
Mons.
