Rich Prize

The energy with which the British crui-
sers in the Gul! prosecute their business OF
boarding suspected slavers may be account
ep ior by the reward, in case they really
catch SLAYER, " hcb they receive.
A letter, published in the London Times,
from an officer ON board the gun-boat Jas
per, says:
ave have captured and brought in, /
may safely say,the largest aid richest prize
ever Captured in the slave-trade. She is u
full rugged and fast sailing ship of $50 tons
burden, with full slave equipments, and
provisions for their sustenance. She also
had on board specie in gold to the amount
OF 2,260 oudces, Spanish and Mexican, or
about fS,5O0 slerirng. Her name and ma
ton unknown. We captured her on the
22d OF March, on the Nor b side of M:,ar :
zas, Between and 10 A. NJ, she having
sailed from Havana on the previous night,
to purchase and bring over slaves for the
Island OF Cuba. We had rather an exciting
chase for about four and half hours. Al
Z a. NJ, the Styx (6, paddle, Com. Vesey)
hove in sight and joined the chase, but KEEP
astern of US until we WIRE within a mile OF
her, when she lowered her royals, but did
not heave to until two mure shots were
thrown. We boarded and examined her
She had no papers. Save coppers were ly-
ing on the main deck, and their furnaces in
a base IN the square of the main hatchway,
marked "MarselIles," to which they pre-
tended to be going. We also found slave
tins and spare plank for slave deck, marke d
fitted, and numbered, but not in its place;
$50 "leaguers," and 800 tons of water in
them; an immense quantity of rice, lurina,
dried salt FISH, lS puncheuns of rum and
other necessaries. The Styx shares. but
the Jasper will share in the proceeds of a
prize taken the previous day by the Styx.

Horrible Discl sule as to Rum Sci
ling-A Child Poisoned-Boys
Encouraged in Rum Holes.

Owing to the fearful interest attached to
the following narrative which was given to
our reporter by a member Of the Excise
Board on Wednesday, we are not at liberty
to Withhold it from our readers, and in ma
king it public commit no breach of nfi-
dence. The gentleman in question OBJ
served with emotion that he had received a
most painful letter that morning from an
old and dear friend of his, informing him OF
of the alarming illness of one of his (the
writer's) sons, fine boy only eleven years
old. For some time past, the child's pallid
LOOKS, listless gaze, complete loss of appe-
tite, inertive and at times, spasmodic &C.
ti'n, had all combined to excite great alarm
in the minds of the parents Much cuTios-
ity was of course aroused on observing
symptoms OF a character so unusual in boy /,
of his age, and so different from thpse al-'
tending tine ordinary ailments of children
Suspicion arose on the part Of his parents
as to the origin of his malady, and that sus-
picion fortunately led TO the solution OF the
mystery that seemed to hang arourd their
darling child. Upon il quries being mad e
and investigation being instituted bv the
father and his friends, it was Immediately
discovered that this child of eLerea years was
in the habit OF irequenting in company
with other bows about his own age, a low
rum shop in Essex street, and there playing
dom;noes, smoking cigars, and drinking the
miserable "rot-gut" Of the place, encour-
aged % do so by the proprietor, without
doubt, fo- the affi cted father actually found
his little sons name marked down upon a
slate in the bar as owing two or three dol
lars for drinks! The child is in a very pre-
carous condition; indeed his permanent re-
covery is Problematical, so great has been
the inroad made upon his little conslitu-
tion. Are these words sufficiently strong
to condemn TO perdition the iendish spirit
which in pursuit of gain, thus would sap
the foundation of young lifel However, the
party is known, and he may look out for
speedy attention on the part of offended law.

GSTlt is with many misgivings, we see
the Carol Free Press advocating the send
ing of any one else TO Congress from the
2lst District, than their present able and
distinguished Representative, the Hon. JSo.
A. BINGHAM. Rotation is their only plea
for it, as we understand it; the very princi-
pie that has ruined the North in the Legis-
lative halls of our nation. Do you suppose,
Mr.. Free Press, that the constituents of Mr
STEPHENS. of Georgia, could be irduced TO
''rotste'' him Dutl or those of Mr.. BococK,
of Virginia. or those of the many other able
men that represent the South? Far from
it. They get their ablest men in Congress
and Keep them there. The North would do
we'll TO emulate their example. Mr.. BIsG-
HAM has proved himself to be possessed of
commanding ability, and of integrity of pur-
pose, in hia conflicts with the distinguished
men of the popular branch of Congress; By
al msans keep him uhere he is. He is need
ed there. Every one will accord General
EcKLEY ability. and we have no doubt he
is as good a Republican as Mr.. BINGHAM,
but he will shine other places equally as
well as he will in Congress. There are
other posts of equal honor he would grace
By all means, keep Mr.. BINGHAM uhere he
Is. 1t is duty you owe not only to the
Republicans oc your own district, but to the
State and nation.

The Issue in October in Pennsyl

vanla.
The indications are favorable for gen.
eral union of the Opposition to the Admin.
istraiion Of Mr.. Buchanan in Pennsylvania
The Lecompton issue is insisted upon BY
the partizans of the President, and Colonel
Forrey, in his Press, says:
So let it be. Pennsylvania is to be made
the battle-ground in October She was
the battle-ground in 1855. The theater is
the same--the actors the same, and the
principle the same, with tie difference that
those who were elected to office upon the
prncip ie now stand forth full armed against
il. These latter have many potent in!1u-
ences on their side. A mass of patronage
held out to mass Of eXpectants; host of
dependents whose bread is safe only As
they defend the-wrong; a Senate ready to
reject or ratiy, as Democrats are fair or
false. But we have great faith in the re-
suit. The people are aroused. The pub
lie mind is filled with light; The public
heart with Indignation. If there was a
rapture in the strife OF 1856, in honestly
supporting al honest creed, what will it be
iE 1858, when that same creed, baseIy de-
serted, implores for rescue and champion
ship.

GFrhe Gazette and Citizen of last weel

0TThe Gazette and Citizen of last week
with its wonted reckessness, publishes an
account OF the recent deialcaton in Wis.
consn, and charges it as an act Of the Re-
publican pariy.. Now had the Gazette been
honest, and willing to bear its share of the
odium of this disgraceful transaction, we
would never have gone to the trouble to
draw comparison; but it is forced upon
US and here it is. Among the State officers,
the investigation shows that the following
are the bribed. Nine State Senators were
bribed, of these six were Democrats and
three Republicans. The only Senators not
bribed were six Republicans. Flfty-seyen
Representatives were bribed. Thity-erght
were Democrats and nineteen Republicans
In the House one Democrat and six Re-
publicsns refused the bribe. The Repub-
licsn Governor was bribed Democratic
Bank Controller, Democratic Lieut.. Gov
ernor, Democratic Clerk OF Assembly, and
Democratic Assistant Clerk of Assembly,
were each bribed. Now here you have cor
ruption enough to do the world for an age
to come. Deep, dark, and damning to
those involved, and we do not wonder tha,
any party should like to shun the odium
attached, but why be dishonest about it.
As Republican we deplore this corruption,
ard as Democrat we could do no more,
but how will it help the matter TO try to
shift it unto another than the guilty par,y1
A disposition to do this partakes very much
of the nature of crime. There were in
all ffty-one Democrats who received a br:be
of Si3o,ooo. There were frcenty- three Re
publicans bribed, who received Sl75.c coo.
Outside of the State Government, there
has been no limit'to the D, mocracy. The
whole state was bought up. All the prin-
eiple papers were bribed in sums from So.
600 to $4,000. 1t seems to have been the
only object of every man to get Just as
much money from the state as possible
caring very l:ttle whether it came honestly
or not. Such is becoming too common a
feeling, among our officials and the people
are warned to be very carfu. who they select
to rule over them. IF the doings of our
assemblies were laid open to public inspec-
ton. the people would hardly believe their
swn eyes. We would see little else than

The Proposed Dictatorship.

There is something startling in the pro
posal which Judge Douglas submitted t,
the United States Senate on Monday, t.
authorize .he Presldent,n cases of outrage,
upon the soil or citizens or properly of ihf
United States requiring prompt redress, st,
employ such force as he may deem necps s
saiy to prevent the Derpetraion of such
outrages, and to Obta in just redress and sat
isfaeti"n for the same, when perpetrated. "
This Is equivalent TO converting the Pres.
ldent INFO Dictator. 1t coniers the power
of declaring war, and strips the other bran.
C es OF The Government of all control over
It's Foreign relations. 1t is but a short
time since bo.h Houses of Congress de.
clined to grant the Presidents application
for an army 10 be sent to Utah. Under this
,resoutiun he would have had no occasion
10 apply to Congress, tor he thinks he had
the provocation it cont emplates, and which
would have just fed the employment of all
the force he desired to prosecute the war
in Kansas and Utah.
What Mr. Buchanan had done to enti,le
himself to this extraordinary mark of coofi f.
d nee from The legislative branches of the
Government we fail TO see, much less can
We discern Judge Douglass motive in pro-
posing to strengthen still further tie exec.
utive arm which has never been lifted bv
Mr. Buchanan except to strike down some
precious State right, and who, by the sys-
tematic abuse of the patronage under his
control, is gradually converting our Gov
ernment from republic of independe mt
States into a centralized despotism. We
cannot believe Congress will confer such
powers, especially upon the eve of an ad.

Revolution in New Orleans

The citizens of New Orleans have rebe..-
led against the City authorities. A Vigi-
lance Comnittee has assumed the Govern
ment and appointed new city p"lce. The
Mayor has been arrested by the Committee
and is being used to further their plans
We have not been able to learn the exact
cause of the disturbance. Complaints ere
aioat of corruption and slack administra-
ton of the laws. Murders and thefts were
an every day occurrence. The election
which took place on the 9Th resulted in an
American triumph. As yet there has been
no blood shed, but things are assuming
quite warlike appearance, and the bloody
scenes of San Francisco are likely to be re-
enacted. This move does not seem to be
confined alone 10 any one party, yet many
of the leading men are Americans.
