BLACK REPUBLICAN BRIBERY
IN CONGRESS.

While the rank and file of the Black
Republicans have been shouting for
bleeding Kansas" the leaders of that
party have been "bleeding" the public
Treasury to the tune of millions. The
article in another column from the Al
bany Atlas fully reveals the Black Re-
publican character and extent of this
Black combination. The Atlas well re-
marks:
It has been by diverting the public
mind from questions of internal admin
istration, that these combinations have
been able to go on SO long The tes-
timony reveals that this corrupt cabal
was organized and carried on its opera
ti6ns, at time when the public mind
was directed to Kansas! The Matte
sons, Gilberts and Edwards and their
-sympathisers and defenders, the Grows,
the Kelseys and the Bennetts, spent the
session in which this stupendous system
of larceny was going on, in singing, like
Greek chorus, strophes and anti-stro.

1t is only by diversion of the public
mind from the true questions of govern

We confess that we take no pleasure
in the exposure of these demagogues.-
We believe that their conviction has
been matter of regret to the Committee
on whom the investigation has devoted.
But we are not unwilling that the les

secondly, of the folly of ac-
cepting the professions of fanatic zeal
for the Slave and of the people of Kan

the duty of the Democratic party to
stand up more strictly to its radical doc

If these lessons are brought home
where they are needed, and acted upon,
this exposure ofa public evil will become

RIVALRY OF MURAr AID DA.
VOUST.

Despite the opiuion (rather anti
French,) of certain general who is
pleased to throw upon Napoleon the
whole blame of the disastrous war in
Russia despite his admiration for the
defeat of the Russians during the marc h
to Moscow, it is bat just to declare that
elsewhere than in the imprudence and
incapacity of the emperor, the essential
causes of our misfortunes will be found.
and that q le grancle hoDlnze" was not so
much ofa simpleton as be wishes him to
appear. Perhaps, too, the complaints of
certain generals, who pretend to believe
that war can be waged without risking
limbs and lives-the efeminacy of some
and the jealousy. of others, may have
contributed in no small degree to SOW
dissersion and disccuragement in the
midst of our army. Here is ia al proof
of that rivalry among officers, which
rendered the soldiers uncertain how to
act, and frequently took from them that
enthusiasm 80 necessary to the success
of this expedition
Napoleon had recently placed Davoust
under Murat, who commanded the van
guard of the Army. They were now,
(the twenty-seventh of August.) at
Slawkow; on the twenty eighth, Murat
pushed the enemy towards the Osma.-
He crossed the river with cavalry, and
vigorously attacked the Russians, who
were posted On hill on the opposite of
the stream, where they could easily
maintain an obstinate fight. They did
so at first with some success, and Mu-
rat, wishing to spare his cavalry in a
spot where the ground was difficult, COM
manded one of Davoust's Batteries to
sustain his movement, aud annoy the
enemy on the heights. He waited some
moments to see the effect of this new at
tack; but all was quiet; and the Rus
slams, profting by this extranrdinaryin-
action, poured down from their emi-
nences, drove back the cavalry to the
borders of the Osma, which runs in the
hollow of ravine, and almost precipi-
tated them into the river.
Murat, by words and example, en-
couraged ibis soldiers, and sent another
message to the commandant of the bat
terry but still his order was not obeyed;
on the contrary word was returned that
that commandant, alleging his instruc-
tions, which under penalty of disposition,
forbade him to engage without command
from Davoust, refused to fire. Rage
glowed within Murat, but more imme-
date peril called him; the Russians
continued to bear down upon the caval-
ry. He headed the fourth laucers,
threw himself npon the enemy, and by
fierce struggle carried those heights
that Dayoust might have swept with his
cannon.
The next day the two officers stood
before Napoleon the king of Naples,
secure in having justified hisrashness by
success; the prince of Eckmul, firm in
his opinion founded on well tried
science. Murat complained bitterly of
Davoust's command to his subordinates.
The emperor listened with his hands
behind him, his head slightly bowed to
conceal an air of satisfaction, pushing a
Russian ball with his toe, which he fol-
.lowedas it rolled, with seeming interest.
