Mr.. BUCHANAN AND Mr.. DOUGLAS. The
rupture between the President and Judge
Douglas had been rendered more durable by
recent occurrences. A number of very ex-
treme southern men, not yet prepared to
break with the northern democracy, waited
upon the President last week, and represent
ed to him that they could not afford to drive
Mr.. Douglas into an alliance with the Repub-
licans, or to permit him to be crushed by
them. 1t was, therefore, necessary to the
cause of the South that Mr. Douglas should
be returned to the Senate, and that event
might depend upon the patronage of the ad.
ministration. Mr. Buchanan instantly be-.
trayed strong and vindictive feeling. He de.
clared that be would not stay his hand; that
it is no longer desirable to keep terms with
Douglas; that he had failed the democracy
on critical occasion, and was no more to be
trusted by it than John P. Hale, and that he
should proceed to turn out of office all his
followers whom ne could reach. He, there
fore, resumed the work which he had sus.
pended in March, and Immediately removed
three of the most effective and able friends of
Mr.. Douglas as a senatorial and presidential
candidate in the Northwest Waship,gton

HoosAc TUNNEL.-Mr. Haupt informs the
Troy Times that the Troy and Boston Railroad
from Troy to North Adams, will be completed
within six months from this time. Some four
hundred men are at work in the tunnel and
on the line Of the road. On the east side,
eight hundred feet has been cut through.
though some three hundred feet of this re-.
quires to be dug out, and that work is now
going on. The terms OF the State loan are.
that on the completion of six miles of the
road and one thousand feet of the tunnel.
100000 is to be advanced by Massachusetts.
This amount will soon be realized and this
attained, there will be no difficulty iu reach.
ing the remainder of the loan by the success.
sive steps required. On the west side. some
three hundred feet has been excavated. A
limestone section has been reached, and the
work is slower, but this will cut through in
the course of couple of months, and there
will be fair working again. With full forces
distributed each side Of the mountain. forty
feet IS excavated per week, BY the present
hand process; but machinery will no doubt
DC applied to this great work in the course Of
few months, that will accomplish four times
the amount executed by hand labor within a
given period.

The MAINE LAW SUsTAINED.-We have be-
fore made the remark. that there is deep.settled
determination in the minds of the people of New
England to put down the illegal liquor traffic, by
all such legal means as may be necessary for the
accomplishment of the object and every effort of
the liquor dealers to defeat that object results in
fixing stronger the determination, and in more
stringent measures for carrying it out. The
truth Of the remark has just recevedSa new and
significant illustration.
We have been told much of a reaction in
Maine, it has been said that no prohibitory law
could be sustained there. Well, to test the ques
ton, the last Legislature offered the people their
choice, the old license law, properly guarded, on
one hand, and the prohibitive 'Mane Liquor
Law on the other The vote thereon, agreeably
to the provisions of the law, was taken on Mon
day, and the following is the first account we get
Ofthe returns
Portland June The people of this State
voted today on the prohibitory liquor law sub
mitted to them by the last Legislature, and the
result is that probably the law has received nine
tenths of the votes cast, as indicated by the fol-
lowing returns ;-Portland-for prohibition 1857
for license 3D. Gorham-for prohibition 254, IL
cense l. Falmouth-for prohibition l57, license
none. Other towns heard from present about the
same complexion.
Twenty towns, mostly large places, return--for
prohibition $3.50, for license 637. In seven of
these towns not single vote was cast for the IL
cense law.

The PETERsBUReH (VA.) "SLAvB CASE"
The facts in the case of the capture of the
schooner Kesiah, Captain W. 5. Bayles,
of Brandywine, Delaware, with five slaves
on board, are thus given in the Petersburgh
Express. The slaves were missed shortly af-
ter the schooner sailed, and steamer was
dispatched after her. The schooner was over
hauled % miles below the Point, and the
steamers party after some difficulty succeed
ed in finding woman slowed away in the
midst of lot of bacon under the cabin floor,
and dressed IN mans attire. The four men
were afterwards found secreted in the hold,
IN a quantity of wheat; the captain and
mate, who comprised the whole crew, still
persisIlng upon such one being discovered
that there were no others on board The
captain and mate with the refugees were
placed on board the steamer, and the schooner
towed back to City Point. where an immense
crowd Immediately assembled.
The prisoners were marched out under a
