1he Ahti-Huchan0n-N " 01lxer Feeling on
IN Red River.
We published yesterday morning, an article from
the Shreveport Gazette of the llth inst denouncing
Gov. Walker in scathing terms. The Gazette is as
strong Democratic paper as there is in the State
and is, therefore, entitled to the respectful consider
alton of all Democrats. In the Gazette of the 18th
inst, we find the following
PERsoNAL.-since our last issue we have received
several letters from different parts of this and Bossier
parish, endorsing our views in regard to 90 Walkers
Kansas Policy" We have but one sentiment on the
subject, and that is the unqualified dsapprova of
the conduct of SO taithless an official As vet, we
have no evidence that Halker will be retained by the
administration. We cannot think for moment that
Mr. Buchanan has, or will endorse Walkers course
We will know sufficient before our next issue, which
will govern the future of the Gazette to-
wards the administration.
The same paper, of the last date, contains long
communication, signed Jefferson showing up some
of Governor Walkers pecuniary transactions in no
enyiabe light, and bitterly denunciatory of his nfa
nous Kansas treachery.
The editor of the Gazette referring to this commu-
nication, says:
We call special attention to a communication in
another column, signed Jefferson. 1t gives true
history OF Governor Walkers financial and political
character.
We firmly believe the country Democrats would as
leave endorse Seward Walker, and as the President
sastains the latter we can see no material difference
between the immortal trio. Had Seward been an.
pointed Governor instead of Walker. he could not
have sold Southern rights and interests in Kansas
more completely.

OREIDE--A Substitute for Gold.-1his is the
name OF a new metal which has recently made its
appearance under French patent, granted in this
country in March last It resembles gold in many
respects and may be used in pure condition, or as
a base for gold-pating. It's cost is about eighty
cents per pound, and yet its appearance is such
that il would readily be taken for gold by the most
casual observers. IL is not pure metal, but a
compound of several metals, refined to such a de-
gree that il does not easily oxydize or tarnish
These qualities make it valuable acquisition to
to the metallic arts. When tested with nitric acid
ebullition takes place, but no spot remains. This
quality, though valuable for utensils, makes it a
dangerous metal for dishonest men. il can be
used in counterfrtng gold readily that il will be
exceedingly difficult TO detect the counterfeit from
true coin. When placed side by side with gold Il
qures close scrutiny 10 decide which Is gold and
winch orride In France q law has already been
passed to prevent frauds, by compelling, under
penalties for neglect, all manufacturers OF
oreide TO stamp the word upon the articles pro-
duced.
A mandatory has recently been started 10 Wa

the new metal Il il said that great deale of tne

Correspondence of the New York Tribune.)

Correspondence OF the new FORK iEbune-l
WASHINGTON, August l.
Lord Napier has had several prolonged inter
views with Gen. CAss, relative to subjects OF cor
rcspundence between the two Governments, during
{ he present week. To-day the conference was IN
usually protracted. There is almost perfect
agreement between the United States aud Great
Britain. Their policy in respect to China, Central
America, and Mexico is Identical. Lord Napier has
signlied 10 Gen. Harran that New Granada could
not expect British sympathy support in refusing
the reparatiOn demanded by the United States for
the massacre of April, 1856. Gen. Cass has recp-
rocated by assuring Lord Napier that, although we
have no cause OF war against China, desire to
see that Empire opened TO the commerce of the
world
Tue general outbreak Of the Sepoys, will no doubt
cause a suspension Of the against the Chinese,
as il will produce diversion OF the army aud ma
Svy employed In this case the duty of protecting
foreign interests in Chinese portswil devOlve upon
the American aud French Il .ets. Some trouble
and annoyance have been caused by the legal pro-
ceedings Against the officers OF the British cruzer
which captured the Panchita. Gen. Cass has in-
formed Lord Napier that this department has no
coutrol over the Courts, but that the Government
will exert its power to secure the officers irom yeG
atious litigation.
