Massacre of Christians at Jeddah.

The English and French who fought with, and ostensibly for, the Turks, against Russia, are getting paid in coin they did not bargain for
 The "sick man. as Turkey was called seems to have fits. or dangerous paroxysms. In the account of the massacre, given in the letter be- low, originally published in the London. Times, it appears that no Americans were killed. The correspondent of the Times writes from Alex andria, July 9th:
 On the evening of the 18th ult., few per- sons-Greek residents of the town of Jeddah- came swimming of to the British ship Cyclops, and stated that disturbances had arisen, and that they feared conspiracy had been entered into against the Christian inhabitants. Everything, however continued in appearance perfectly quiet; not shot nor cry was heard, though the savage work was even then already com menced; but the assassins had taken the pre- caution to use cold steel alone. The English consulate was the first point of attack, and MT. Page, the acting consul, must have fallen under the blows of crowd of ruffians, who followed up the murder by sacking the house and tearing down the flag. The unfortunate mans body is said to have been found literally hacked to pieces.
 Maddened with excitement, the mob appears
 next to have poured down upon the house of the French consul, M. Eveillard Here however
 the kaimakan, or governor of the town made some feeble attempt to interpose; the force al lis disposal amounted to only eighty men, and whatever efforts they may have used, they did

"Monsiur Tonson Come Again."

We had thought that if ever there was a scheme elfectually exploded--a question fairly settled the scheme or question of United States bank was disposed of Those who had once been its most earnest supporters acquiesced in the judgment of the people that consigned "an obsolete idea" The adoption of the de- mocratic policy of divorcing the government from all banks was so decided and thorough a success, we did not suppose, that, in the heighths or depths of folly, scheme to ally them once more would be presente or indorsed by sensi- ble men. But the leading opposition journals are all out once more in favor of national bank!
 Our readers will remember the arguments used by the friends of the old bank. First it was conteDded that the government could not col lect its revenues without the aid of bank, and therefore, it was, not question of expediency, but necessity. This was shown to be false by the action of the independent treasury system.
 Second, they averred that there was not Soiu abu niiNci iOi ehC Noit' oi bho country, and that twice as great an amount of circulating medium was required. The fallacy of this was shown at the time, but now, they have not even that excuse; the mines of Cali fornia, Australia and Frazer's river have food ed the country with gold. Hence, among the plans proposed some wish to dispense with issues by the bank, and have what they call a great regulator of exchange But the most of them are for straight-out, old fashioned Nick Bid- dle bank.
 This movement and the late meetings at the north, demonstrate that the opposition will throw away the dead humbugs of opposition to foreigners and the Catholic religion. and confne themselves to the three issues: Abolition ol slau~y-a national bank-a high tafif They return to old doctrines and old humbugs. They ressurect the old bank and try to scare us with the skeleton of the monster slain by General Jackson.

FREE MAsoNRY.-The New Orleans Bulletin emarks concerning the masonic fraternity If

FREE MAsoNRY.-The New Orleans Bulletin remarks concerning the masonic fraternity of the United States: is s
 Here is body of men, composed of ail classes and professions, entertaining every kind of opinions upon religion and politics, and ex- lstng in every State of the Union, who come together aud exhibit among themselves the ut most harmony of feeling and action. No word oi opprobrium escapes from the laps of any one to insult and wound the feelings of another.- NO herce anathema of sections is heard. No extravagance is indulged in. Everything is done decently and in order. Everything is qulet, gentlemanly, respectful, diguifed. The Dltterest political enemies meet face to face and you shall never know by their actions or words that they do not belong to the same party. Re- liglonlsts the most opposite embrace each other In the arms of an exalted charity. Fanaticism nnds no entrance into the society of the broth- erhood. Not wave of discord dsturbs the waters of the inner temple, no plunge into the aoysS ot atheism, rant, lawlessness, shocks the moral sense of mankind No revolutionary hydra comes up from beneath to break up the foundation of order and send the tornado over the fair face of society,""
 It then asks why it is that christian churches do not profit by the example afforded them by this phllanthropic fraternity. Quoth the Bull letin:
 But what IS the secret of their unanimity ot their harmony, of their brotherly love, of the conservative front which, without tremor, Ghey maintain, and the general commotion, hatred and fanaticism existing around them?- It Is round, It seems to strike us, in one word toleratSon'

 To close this tedious subject we have only further to remark, that the democratic party, and those members of it just elected to impor- tant posts are too wide awake to suffer them selves to be dictated to by these fellows who are eternaly sandering IS. They, seeing and reading flor themselves, know that we have not sought to lead or drive, to coax orinfluence, and as We are unpledged and untrammeled, so they will be, except to their constituents, whose will they will strive to carry out regard less of dictation from any source.

Both were murdered and their oaugnter alone-a young lady who, though under twenty years of age. appears to have pos seseeo the spirit of heroine-was rescued from tne hands of the assassins and, covered with an Arao cloak, she was carried tothe house of the Haimakan. Her face was laid open with a eash rom sabre cut across the cheek, but before oelng dragged forth she had avenged the mur- oer or her father by the death of the assassin.
 Early on the following morning Capt Pullen. still ignorant of what had occurred, sent two boats ashore. When they neared the inner reefs Turkish soldiers were observed warning them of: they continued, however, to advance until they found themselves surrounded by a crowd of about SIX hundred men, who from the out-iut- tlnS reefs poured a shower of stones upon the boats. The crews were fortunately armed and soon forced their way back to the ship. not, however, without having been compelled to pour Voiiey of musketry into their assalants.
 An interval of five days now elapsed until the arnval from Mecca of Naamik Pacha, the Gov ernor ot the Hediaz, with body of about eight hundred Turkish troops:
 The crew of the steamer entreated their off. cers to be allowed to take vengeance upon tbe city. if not by laying the place in ashes, at least by being permitted to land, even though the risk at finding themselves, It most POO men, op posed to a population of 10000; but the Kaima- kan sent repeated messages beseeching Captain Pullen to desSt from all interference, warning him that his own house vas surrounded by in- furlated fanatics, clamoring for the surrender of the Christians, who they knew had obtained re- fuge in the house, and declaring that were a single gun fired, or one armed man landed from the ship, not only the lives of the refugees, but also hls own would, to a certainty, be sacrificed. ms officer can doubtless not have yielded with out struggle, and no other argument would probably have saved the city from it's well-mer- lted doom. Even thoughit be granted that only portion of the inhabitants were actually en- gagged In the massacre none had a claim for pity where all had stood calmly by without stretch Ing forth finger to protect handful of inoffen- sive men and women who lived among them. relying upon their hospitality.
 On the 20th Naamik Pacha arrived with his troops, and some semblance of order was re- stored. Miss Eveiard and other rescued Eu- ropeans were transferred on board the Cyclops. In spite of the opposition at first made by the Pacha, the crew and marines were afterwards landed with the British and French coors, and. escorted by body of Turkish infantry, they wefe led 10 the newly made grave, over which the funeral service was read, and the English and French flags were rehoisted under salute ot Fl guns.

 California and New York papers please copy.
 In this city, on the 10th inst, WILLIAM GEORGE, aged 3S years.
 MT. George was native of Kelsterback in Germany, but has resided in this place for the last twenty-five years, being engaged in the mer- cantile business at the time of his death, as one ofthe firm of "Wm. George & Bro"
 In the death of Mir. George, we can truly say, that the community loses valuable and good citizen, the orphans whom he had in charge, their best friend and protector. 1t has fallen to the lot of but few to suffer upon bed of sick ness and pain, as compared with the subject of this memoir. For more than twenty years was he afflicted, and though at times so great sui ferer, he was energetic and prompt in business, true to his friends, liberal with his ismeans--with which kind Providence had blessed him, to all his relations.
 Mir. George has been for many years con- sistent and valuable member of the Protestant Episcopal Church of this place, one of the last acts of his life was the partaking of the holy communion in remembrance of his beloved and risen Saviour.
 To remark that Mir. George was retiring, modest amiable citizen, would be simply to say what is the expression of all. e August 2d, 1858, at the residence of her hus- band, in Magnet Cove, Hot Spring county, Ark, Mrs. MANoRY COOK wife of the Hon. Lemuel A. Cook.

She was married to Mr. O., in 1927, and they had raised large family to be honest and respectable men and women--who are left to mourn their irreparable loss. The day that her husband was honored, by an intelligent people to seat in the legisla- tive counsils of his adopted State-tore from his side the partner of his youth and the solace of his latter years--but he is blessed with sn as- l surance that his loss is her eternal gain.
