Mr.. Breckinridge's Letter.

Considerable stress is laid by the advocates of
Douglas reelection upon the fact that Vice lresi-
dent Breckenridge has declared hts preference Tor
him over Lincoln. This is true; but it is accom-
panied with an explicit disavowal of any approval
Of Douglas course last winter. From the tone Of
the Vice Presidents letter, it is evident that he
prefers Douglas as "choice Of evils only. The
Washington Union, in publishing the letter in
question, accompanies it with the following forci-
Bile comments:
The Vice Presidents Letter.
We publish in another column the mucii-taiked-
of letter Of Mr. breckenridge To the Douglas CEN
trail committee Of the State OF Illinois. The read
er will Judge Of its character for himself. Those
who prefer Judge douglas to Mr.. Lincoln may be
satisfied with it in respect to that point, though
VIC doubt not they would be lad to strike out
some of its expressive reservations. lie cannot
approve the senator's conduct last winter, nor
some of his positions in the present canvass yet
nevertheless, he likes Judge Douglas better than
Lincoln. Mr. Breckenridge is explicit. Had the
question been put to him whether he would sus
tain Seward over Lincoln, Hale over Greedy. Pres
ton King over Matteson, it is not unlikely that he
would have expressed his preference in terms quite
similar to those employed in answer to the Illinois
committee. There are, doubtless. many goov
democrats who like Douglas better than Lincoln
perhaps very many in Illinois, who will vote
against both. That is not the question in issue
at least it is not for the democracy to decide

legations for the aid of 1.-The powerful Douglas de

ton of the Judge over Lincoln. nereabouts near.
ly oil the republicans are Of the same way of
thinking. Between two opponents we see no
reason why prefeaences should not be entertained
especially, as in the case of Mr.. Breckinridge,
when it is expressly declared that it is not to be
construed into an endorsement or approval of the
conduct Of the favored.

The Ia no marked change in the condition of the
wounded parties to-day. Mr.. Gouldy partially re-

and homes are entertained Of their recovery.
A great crowd surrounds the premises but none
are admitted 70 the house. not even intimate
friends unless their services arc needed
The physicians hoped that the removal of young
Gouldy's body would dispense the crowd. The
mother also expressed n wish that it might be la

THREE Mex SufrocATEp IN RosIx Oil
lSrILL-NARRow ESCAPE OF A FoURru.-A sad
accident occurred at the Bowman Oil Works,
Pine Island, Roxbury, at about nine o'clock this
morning by which three lives werc lost, and in
regard to which We have the following particulars:
In the building is large iron still, capable of
holding several hogsheads. At the bottom of this
still the pitchy substances collect and harden, and
it is necessary, after the still has cooled off, for
the workmen to enter by means Of ladder and
cut of the collections with cbisel This NOR
ming workman named Lyons entered tho still
for this purpose. but unfortunately a sufficient
time had not been allowed for the iron to cool,
and the noxous gases to escape through hole
opened for that purpose. In a short time he was
heard 10 fall, when Mr.. Nathaniel Butler, and
finally Mr.. Dennis Butler, the superintendent of
the establishment went to his relief hut they
wore overcome and persisted before relief could
reach them. The cooper of the establishment was
present, but was prevented from entering the still
BY workmen of the neighborhood Mr.. Butler,
the superintendent, was q years ofage and leaves
a wife and children. Coroner Adams was called
to the case, but deemed an inquest unnecessary.

ANCIENT MINES IN NEBRASKA few years
ag, there we're discovered on the Weeping Water,
fourteen miles from Nebraska City, what appear
cd to be the remains Of ancient shafts and drifts
dug for mining purposes. The discovery excited
some attention ut the time, but no efforts were
made to investigate the subject. One day last
week, "a we learn from the Nebraska City News,
a company Of gentlemen residing in that city arm
81 themselves with shovels and pick-axes. and re-
paired to the spot for tho purpose of ascortaining
further information about these silent yestiges of
past people. They found the trenches to be
from twenty to thirty feet in width and on max
ing excavations Mt the bottom. broken rocks were
discovered. indicating that blasting had been pur-
suel in forming the trenches. The Ncbracka
Mus thinks that the excavations were made in
search # lead.

fcatures-Ae ocean mail steamship bill,
&c.
WAsHINGToN, May 28.-A move nent is
in progress contemplating tie cooperation Of
all opposition elements to the Administration,
in the Peoples party of the Union.
The main features of the proposed orcsni-
zatiou are the ignoring of all questions pro-
ductive of sectional strife; the protection of
popular rights; judicious system of inter
nal improvements; a settled and firm foreign
policy; the prevention of the landing of for
eign criminals and paupers; the protection of
the ballot-box, and an extended period OF
residence after naturalization, as a condition
for the exercise OF the elective franchise; the
fostering of American genius and art; allow
ing every territory rising into State. to have
her Constitution and laws framed by citizens
of the United State. who are permanent in
habitants, under such rules as Congress may
prescribe.
The ocean mail steamship bill appropriates
million FIVE hundred and eghty-one thous-
and dollars, and provides for procuring the
proper transportation of the mails il cases
where failures to perform the contract have
and may occur.
Col Florence intends to introduce a bill
making appropriations for Qualifications and
! other works of defence.
