letter from Archbishop Hughes, which that gen.
tleInan deems necessary as " refutation of ma
licious article published in the New York Times

ence to previous attack made upon him by cor
respondent of the Times, who wrote over the sig
nature of ''Equitas." The Archbishop demanded
the name Of the author of the communication, and
Mr.. Raymond, editor of the Times, stated the
article reached him accompanied by private
note in the same handwriting, signed by DR.. Nc
Elroy Of st. Mary's Church, Boston, who avowed
himself the author" DR.. McElroy, however, dis
avowed the authorship, and the note turned out
TO be forgery. The Archbishop now assumes
that the forger was in the Times Office, and is the
author Of the editorial article he now replies to-

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Union argues that the current attempt
ut treason in Kansas is the cunning scheme of
q Republican party leaders, in order to con-
jure up an excitement among their followers in
certain Northern States where elections are
soon to come of.
The fHtefItgsHcer, in a calm and able article
reviews the condition Of things in Kansas. The
editor, in the course of his remarks, takes &C.
casion to commend the policy pursued by Gov.
Walker, and to show with great clearness that
the current efforts of the town of Lawrence to
set itself above law. is naked and unmistakea-
bic rebellion against not only the authority Of
the territorial legislature, but also that of Con-
gress, and the Executive branch Of the General
Government. We trust that the Inteiiigencey $
article may be re- published throughout the nom
slaveholding States, where it cannot fail to do
much good in the way of checking any propen-
sity to sustain with public opinion the mad con-
duct of the Abolitionists in the Territory, now
being worked up to the preparation of open
acts of treason by appeals from the New York
Tribune and more or less sympathizing jour-
mails

The DISASTER AT THBFLUME HOUsE.-Wc
had telegraphic despatch yesterday mentioning
the death of two persons at the Flume House, at
the White Mountains. The Boston Traveller of
last evening says:
BY the p. m train to-day. the widow of Mr.
Smith, with the body of deceased, reached this
city. BY passengers in this train we learn the
following facts In regard to the disaster:
The lightning struck flagstaff erected in front
of the house, on the 18th July last, descended the
pole until IL reached the wire of bell. and thence
entered the house. Mr.. Smith was sitting in the
poEtico when he was struck and killed. Mr.
BlandOn was writing at his desk. child near
him was stunned and slightly injured. as were
also number of other boarders in the vicinity of

FROM BRITISH GUISEA.-By the arrival of the
Dark MontezHma we have files of the Georgetown
(britlsh Guinea) Royal Gazette to the I'd Of July
inclusive. The question that seems to engross
public attention there just now is the importation
Of coolies, and the immense mortality and her
evils attendant thereupon. The effect appears to
have been to discourage coolies from coming to
the West Indies. No such disinclination prevail
ed with respect to the French Islands. The erni-
grafton agent at Madras having promised certain
coolies passage back to India, after five years
industrial residence In British Guinea, seemingly
IN excess of his instruction, the Governor had
published decree confirming the agents PROM

ADDITIONAL TRooPS FOR MINNEsorA.-We
have reason to believe that this morning it was
definitely determined to reinforce the troops
now at Forts Ridgley and Snelling-the nearest
| military posts to the threatened Sioux outbreak
with four companies of U. S. troops; making
not less than eight, in all, that will garrison
| them for the time being, and operate from them
| if circumstances require it. Gen. Scott was
probably directed to-day to designate which
troops shall be sent thithcr, that being the
function of bis Office. 1t is to be presumed that
he will select those nearest at hand.
p. S.-There are two companies Of the Tenth
Infantry at the two posts named above, that
| would have moved to join the Utah expedition
but for the occurrence of pressing necessity for
| their temporary presence there. Tits probable
ger. If so, there will be ten companies of the
| United States Troops in ell at hand to operate
| against the Sioux if necessary.
