Governmea,.i r.tulty.

The London correspondent Of the CONNER
ciai Advertiser states that the fact has been
exposed that the Calcutta Government had
absolute warning Of whatswas going to take
place months before the India mutiny broke
out. Not merely the wsrnings Of opinion,
such IS was expressed BY old General Ma.
pier, but clear, unmistakable announcements
such US those which preceded the gun pow
der plot in England, and which through be-
ing attended to saved King and Parliament.
In November last, Gholab Singh, an old Sikh
chieftain, wrote TO Lord Canning, the Gov
ernor- General ut Calcutta, that the Mahom-
edans intended to rise, and had offered him
the direction Of the projected movement -
The Government, it is said, laughed and did
hot even reply to the letter. In their self
complacent wisdom, they doubtless looked
upon It ns trick of the old man to ingra-
siate himself; but, allowing the probability
OF this superstition, what government with
spark Of prudence would have slignted the
intelligence, and left il without IN attempt
ut investigations This, however, 10 ~ moth
ing compared with what follows. An En-.
glish merchant had had his suspicious excl
ted, and even converted into certainty, and
upon communicating his information 70 gov
ernment he received the same treatment.

Hamilton. He had long carried on business
IN Cawnpore and Allahabad, and had gained
the confidence Of the native dealers From
these he received a friendly notice to send
his family away in six months. At first he
refused, but at last he became convinced
there was some impending peril, and be fol-
lowed the advice. At the same time he wrote
10 the government, and offered to obtain
further particulars. But the authorities
were too well satisfied with their own knowl-
! edge. and this letter, like that from Gholab
Singh, was not even acknowledged. II il
to be admitted that these statements may re-
quire confirmation, but they wear strong
! appearance Of truth. Assuming them to Be
correct, the history Of human conceit and
apathy hardly furnishes similar instance
OF infatuation. Either fact, taken sipgly,
might have been expected to excite vigilance,
but the two, from such totally different
sources, amounted to hand writing upon
the wall which only an Official Nebuchadne
Ear would have disregardsd. Nothing was
done, and Delhi, the great arsenal 81 the
country, was left without even single COM
pany Of European troops while the Calcutta
authorities were busy Ia framing . law to
extend the native power % ~ 20 bring the
people to perfect political equality with
their rulers, and TO enable them to DID -
judges in the law courts.

Important from wash,ng,.n.

The New York Times of Saturday, has a
special dispatch from Washington, dated
18th, which says that the administration 10
determined to support the neutrality lave,
and to-day took the initiatory steps for that
purpose. In addition to information havigx
beeu received Of the fitting out Of three sew
eral expeditions, viz: at New York, New Or
leans and Mobile, for the re-invasion Of Mic.
aragua, under the leadership Of Gen. Walk
er, intelligence Of an Official character has
come to hand Of another expedition, having
its center in, if not nearly altogether con-
fined to Texas, for the invasion OF Mexico,
and, it is supposed, the seizure Of the state
of Tamaulipas. Gen. Sam. Houston is, BY
the reports received, implicated rs it's leader.
To-day the form Of instruction was pre-
pared by executive authority, and copies Of
which will be dispatched tomorrow to the
various United States marshals and district
attorneys on the seaboArd, as we'll as to the
officers Of the army and navy, and to use all
lawful means at their command to prevent
such expeditions leaving the United States
for the invasion Of any country with which
we are at poace-in other words, enjoining
them TO strictly enforce the neutrality laws.
At present no presidential proclamation will
be issued.

POLITICAL sPEAKTSG.
\ Although this was not down in the pro-
| gramme Of the Fair, it constituted very i'm
portant part of the performance, and was the
| chief attraction for Locofoco demagogues
| who have neither the manners nor sense to
abstain from protruding politics upon all oc.
casions. II by the sanction and encourage
ment of the officers Of the Fair, Loeofoco
speaking is to constitute regular part of
the proceedings, ii may as well be set down
in the programme; and We suggest that a
show of fairness be manifested by giving
Republican speakers IN equal chance.
Ihurstou, the Locofoco Senator Of this
county, led off the speaking, but his speech
did not differ materially from any one dcliv-
cred by him on politics during the last two
years. 1t was as usual mere rigmarole Of
balderdash and falsehood, in which he did
not Intentionally utter q single truth, and,
! think, hardly Numbered on one by acci-
dent.
Or. Allen followed, as modest as that of
0ctavius' and quite as honest. Heprofessed
himself an anti-slavery man, and declared
general affection for the blacks, avowing
that next to his white relatives he loved the
negro nanny who sucked him and his fos-s
ter brothers and sisters who were the play
mates of his youth. But the great burden of
his speech was the danger to the Union
from the agitation Of the slavery question.
The fiery and haughty Southernsrs would
not endure this agitation, and if it did not
speedily cease they would dissolve the Union.
And for his part he would rather see the
earth open and swallow up the three or four
millions Of Africans, than that the
Union should be dissolved. The Doctor
urged that the spread of Slavery was but
little matter, and tried to convince the peo-
pie OF the North that they should submit. to
every outrage and encroachment Of the
quietly and tamely, in the meek
and humble spirit becoming in "poor whites"
towards Southern aristocrats.
The third speaker was Lynch, Of our city,
who spoke loud and long to convince the
foreigners hereabouts that Dr.. Allen was
very popular in Keokuk, and that he loved
the Germans and Irish most devoutly, and
that they, especially the Irish, almost adored
DR.. Allen.
BY the time Lynch had exhausted himself
the Republicans were thoroughly aroused,
and demanded fair play, and in spite of the
Locofoco strikers, who had two or three /
more speakers on hand, John W. Rankin /
was forced on to the platform. He took the |
Locofoco speakers up seriatim and exposed
.neir falsehoods, humbugs and misrepresen-
alton, so pointedly that even Thurston felt

brief account of his.speech, and will close
With the assurance that he acquitted himself
and to the great qualification Of

The Republican party of Davis county has
never been organized till lately. Black De-

polled all the votes, or very nearly all there
were in the county. Wesee by the proceed
ings Of Republican convention held in
Bloomfield, few days ago, that the party in
tina, county has been at last fully organized,
in the best spirit, and the members have
opened the campaign with commendable zeal.
They took their stand upon the Philadelphia
platform, adding some excellent resolutions
OF their own, in entire consonance with the
national declaration Of our political faith,
pledged their efforts in favor Of Lowe and
Faville, and nominated as their candidate for

A DAY OF tw0 brfure the surrender Gen.
Mora's scouts intercepted letter from Wall
