invitation of DIR. jackson, they called up
on Mr.. Sumner, who received them very
cordially. He soon asked Mr.. Hofius how
Mr.. Ford had succeeded here. The Colo
mel told him frankly that he didnot succeed
very well-that his meeting was composed
of Democrats and Fillmore men-that very
few Fremont men were present, in conse-
quence of there being but few in the place.
This frank avowal irritated the gentleman
with the soft brain, and he poured forth a
perfect torrent of invectives against Penn
sylvanans. While emptying his vials of
Black Republican wrath, he declared that
the Wings and Democrats of Pennsylvania
were white slaves, and that he should glory
in seeing them brought to the block, and
disposed of under the auctioneer's hammer.
The unqualified assertion of the Yankee
fanatic did not fail to arouse the indignation
ofthe Pcnnslyvanians, and Col Hofius made
some tart reply, which only aggravated the
martyr the more, and he showered abuse of
the foulest kind upon Pennsylvanians in
discriminatory, and whenthe party attempt
ed to vindicate their State, the dignifed
Yankee Abolitionist coolly opened Bos-
ton paper, and commenced reading. The
party came away completely disgusted, and
Col. Hohus, who previously felt great SYM
pathy for the man before he uttered such
atrocious sentiments, declares openly that
his Honor earned great many more can
ings than he has ever received.

SUMNER IN PENNSYLVANIA.

A Pennsylvania journal, the Holidays

cious bit of gossip, in regard to the ''where-
abouts'' and the temper of the immortaliz-
ed Mr.. SUMNER. 1t is really refreshing
specimen, and is especially valuable as a
proof, from his own people, of the cool eff
frontery, the bare efaeedhypocrisywith which
the Massachusetts Abolitionist has carried
himself since he was whipped in the Senate
Chamber. The utter degradation of the
men who make up the Republican party is
as appalling, as, but for the proof, it would
be incredible. But TO the extract -

his arrival, what little sympathy was mani

tirely given way to feelings of deep disgust.
There is nothing whatever the matter with

appetite, and talks politics with all the bit

can command.

THE RoUT OF THE TRAITORS.

The final defeat of the Black Republican
party in the House of Representatives is
an achievement over which the South may
rejoice with honest exultation; for the
struggle and the result reflect infinite cred
it on the frmness and fidelity of the South
ern spirit. All honor to the gallant minori-
ty in the House, whom defeat could not
dismay, and who returned again and again
to the charge, until the enemy's column
gave way. All honor to the Senate, for the
infexible tenacity with which it held to its
position under every accumulation of ad-
verse influence. 1t has again shown itself
the bulwark of the Constitution. All hon
or to the patriotic President, for so fearless
discharge of duty. The result vndicates
his policy, and consistently closes the Ad
ministration of Franklin Pierce with an in
comparably brilliant victory over the enc
mics of the Constitution and the Union
Nothing is wanting to the lustre of his re-
putat@cn. His name is imperishably asso-
ciated with the history of grateful coun-
try.
The Black Republican forces have suf-
fered repulse from which they can never
recover. They must endure the infamy of
treason, without the reward of successful
crime. They are defeated, they are humil-
lated, they are covered with contempt
they are pursued by the Kisses and curses
of an indignant people. The Democracy
are now triumphant in the North. The
election of Buchanan is placed above the
caprice of fortune.-[ Richmond Eng.

SHOCKING.

DIR. Magic relates that an idiot in the hos
pital of Salzburg appearing to be singular
ly insusceptible of fear, an experiment of
an appalling character and appalling con-
sequences, was made upon him as means
of putting his susceptibility to the test
1t was proposed to produce in him the i'm
preston that he saw a dead man come to
life. A person, accordingly, had himself
laid out as a corpse, and enveloped in a
shroud, and the idiot was ordered to watch
over the dead body. The idiot perceiving
some motion in the corpse, desired it to lie
still and the pretended corpse raising it
self up in spite of this admonition, the idiot
seized q hatchct, which unluckily was
within his reach, and cut off his head
He then calmly resumed his station by the
real corpse.
