BSy~The London correspondent of the
New York Times, relates the following an
ecdote of Morphy, the great unbeaten
American chess-player, on his recent arri-
val in London:
Mr.. Morphy, who arrived out by the AZ
RIGA, quietly walked into the st. Georges
Chess Club one night last week, and after
beating Mr.. Lewen, who is a recognized
champion, with the greatest ease, offered a
challenge to Mr.. Staunton, the British CGur
dc Lion of the noble game. Mr.. Staunton
accepted the proposition, sat down, went to
werk-almost cleared the board in some
twenty moves, and was about withdrawing,
in contempt, when lie was arrested by q
''check," which in three moves more grew
into "mate." You may imagine the con-
stcrnation of the hero and of the lockers
on. ''May ask your name, SIR" said Mr.
5. 'Certainly, Sir" replied his young an-
tagonist. AMY name is Morphy" ''Oh OF
America" ayes, sirp' "Ahl then | am
sorry, but am not quite IN play just now,
and should rather not risk another game
just at present." and SO Mr.. Stanton with
drew. The event has created quite a great
sensation in the world Of chess, as was bred
i'll the world of yachtsmen by the victory Of
the America, and Mr. Morphy has made W
match with Anderson, the Hungarian, up
on which all England that playeth chess
will be yehemently betting in the course o.
fortnight. You may regard this as set
| of, perhaps, against the defeat of Mr.. Ter
Broeck's horses-though, it should be re-
membered, that the battle even there is no
! yet given up.

American Manufactures in England.

1t is a fact significant of the progress OF
American manufacturing skill, that the Bir-
minghain English J manufacturers initiate
the trade marks OF American manufactured
cutlery, and sell it as imported from the
United States. The London Times, of the
lSt inst, has the report of trial Of the Col
Inns Company es. Reeves, in which it was
proved that the latter initiated all the trade
marks of the former, an American Company,
even TO the fac simiie of s. W. Collins sig
nature, which is stamped on the cutlery.
The plea in cxtenuation was that il was the
custom in birmingham for manufacturers of
goods to afliX any particular trade mark TO
order, and that this Edgetool Company had
granted licenses to some persons to use their
marks. The Court did not seem to see the
force ofthis reasoning, which allowed a third
party to do thing because the privilege to
do it was granted to second. The Court
said that if the plaintiff had an exclusive
right TO apirticular trade mark, and that
right were invaded, the Court would pro-
tect the right, although the plaintiff might
be an alien, and although the goods upon
which his trade mark might be improperly
used, were not usually sold by him i'm Eng
land.
Such decision does honor to the Judici-
airy of the country where it WAS made.

WHo IS HE?-The Princeton, Clarion
giving an account OF the proceedings of the
Lecompton Convention, says, Mr.. Parrot of
Warwick County, being called upon, deliv-
cred a short and respectable Old Line speech
TO the satisfaction of the audience; but its
effect was in measure spoiled by fellow
who, we Inferred, had escaped from the In
sane Hospital, from the outrageous profanity
and blackgulrdism belched forth to decent
audience We do not believe there was all
honest Democrat present but whose cheek
tinglcd with shame and modification to
hear themselves addressed in such low-aung
language and billingsgate.
Such dirty work was not required before
that audience. The speaker had better be
coiled within the embraces of that " Col
conda" (Ill.) that he spoke of so much, and
be Rugged to death by those !" thirteen Buck
she niggers' he referred to, than to travel
in this district any longer. The democracy
would be the gamer by his absence. The
Clarion is the organ of the Lecomptonites
whose rule is to excommunicate all Offend
ing members who undertake to speak upon
their own impulses, or don't sing according
to the tune played by the organ. We adj

The Vincennes Gazette gives us the pro-
ceedings of the Pike County Convention to
appoint delegates to the Princeton Conven-
ton. After the most industrious drum
ming, about forty voters, one-half Anti-Le-
comptonites and one-f0urth Republicans,
and the other quarter blue light Buchanan
ties, were got together. The Buchanan
"managers," taking census of the assem-
bly,, saw that they were out numbered, and
after some sparring broke up the meeting.
In the afternoon, six of the faithful Buchan-
antics, secreted themselves in room, placed
one of their number in the chair, who APP
pointed the remaining five as delegates to the
Princeton Convention, with instructions to
go for Niblack When the thing got noised
about, great indignation was manifested by
the Popular Sovereignty delegates; and q
determined protest against the proceeding
was started at once.

\ NOBLE AND BENEVOLENT ESTERPRIsE.-
The Ne'cs says that the great New York
Millionaire, VIM. B. Astor, Esq, has deter
mined to build three magnificent steamships
so constructed that they can be used for
commercial or naval purposes. The object
that Mr. Aston has in view, is TO give work
TO several thousand suffering mechanics and
laborers al present out of employment
When the vessels are completed he will offer
them for sale to the United States Govern
ment, and in case il should decline, to the
European powers. Any surplus that may
remain after payment of the cost of con-
struction and reasonable interest, Mr. Astor
intends TO divide among the workmen. The
cost will b. about $4,000, o0ol Such a
worthy deed viii confer more honor on the
name of Aston than al the fame Of his
wealth.

! Col. Thompson ON the Supreme Court
and Common Schools.

and Common schools.
The Hon. r. W. Thompson delivered an
address before the Teachers Association at
Terre Haute, on Thursday last, in which he
reviewed and exposed the errors in the. re-
cent decision of the Supreme Court, upon
the Common School question. The address
is said to have been one of the Colonies
ableSt efforts. The Union gives the follow
ing synopsis of its leading points. We
wish the address might be printed entire.
The position Mr.. T. took against the de-
cison OF the Supreme Court was one of in
terest and of power, showing plainly. to
the mind of every ono present, that the Su-
preme Judges were laboring under an eyre
gious error when they based their decision
upon the erroneous conclusions they bad
come to, either through ignorance or preju-
dice A law to become general, within the
full meaning of the Constitution, may not
be in full operation in every township in
the State, but when it grants the same priv
ileges and the same powers to each town.
ship, then it is general, and because of the
negligence or want of proper spirit, in
any particular section, TO enforce said law,
or to avail themselves of its benefits, it does
not follow that the law should be declared
unconstitutional, owing to the want OF its
general enforcement. Here is the main
point upon which the decision Of the SUI
preme Court was based, and when exam;n-
ed in proper light, that decision seems to
be perfect farce, and its record upon the
pages of the Reports of the Supreme Court
of the State of Indiana, is a reproach upon
our heretofore fair reputation.
1t has been the universal concession of all
courts of record, from time immemorial,
that where any particular right was granted,
to any man or set of men, or corporation,
for any particular specified object, all the
power and means which may be necessary
to accomplish that object are embraced with
in the meaning of that conceded or delegat-
| ed right. The Supreme Court, in deciding
that we had the right to levy tax to build
school houses, certainly over looked this
important feature in common law, for we
certainly do not wish to build school houses
to rent out to shows, menageries, or to sa-
! loon keepers. The house is useless without
school, and school is hardly practicable
without house. Then il must follow that
one right includes another, and SO on unit
all the machinery necessary to accomplish
the original design is set in full operation.

B1 How the official dignitaries use the

w. How the ofhclal dlgnltarles use the
public vessels for their private pleasures, is
set forth in letter from Old Point Comfort,
Va, dated July Is, which says:
"Hon. Howell Cobb, Mr. Collector Schell,
of New York Miss Lane, niece. of Presi-
dent Buchanan Sir Gore Ousley and lady
the French Minister and suite, and num-
Der of other ladies and gentlemen, arrived
on yesterday in the steam cutter, Harriet
Lane, from Washington"
The public revenue cutters are thus used
as private yatchs for the excursions OF the
Washington officials and their families.
They may soon demand sloop of war,
each, and the President will, perhaps, order
frigatc or liner into the Chesapeake, to
take his exccllency and his retinue upon sea
excursions, or an ocean voyage. The duties
of the Home Squadron may, in the end, be
chiefly to attend upon the wants and enjoy
ments of the Executive Dignitaries 1t win
be but slight assumption upon that which
has seized upon the revenue fleet. The
right and principle are the same; if public
opinion endure one it will soon have to
tolerate the other. The Marine Band at the
Washington Navy Yard is made to attend
these officials on their excursions, and play
at their private levees. The tendency of
these thinge arc unmistakable, and the only
check is public opinion--the verdicts ex-
pressed through the ballot boxes. The ex-
ecutive is not only absorbing all the power
of the Government, but is usurping all the
privileges of monarchy, and using the prop
erty of the State as its own. Let the peo-
pie rebuke this tendency by rejecting the
unscrupulous adhercnts and supporters of
executive power, like Niblack, whenever
they seek their suffrages.

pey'A fellow named Francis Barton, who
had been committed to Jail at Princeton, af-
ter an examination before Judge Pitcher,
for stealing watches, &c, thinking Justice
had not been done him, had himself taken
before Judge Perkins, at indianapolis, on a
writ of habeaS corpus, last Monday. After
hearing the argument, Judge Perkins de-
termined to review the case, and for that
purpoie he has agreed to come TO Princeton,
to take the testimony, rs less expensive and
troublesome than TO carry the witnesses to
indianapolis, and will be there on Thursday
next. We know nothing of this particular
case. But the issue and returns of writs OF
habeaS corpus have become a crying abuse
They are used now as one of the I" establish
ed and easy modes y by which the escape OF
notorious criminals is effected by lawyers
The judges are doing infinite injury to the
cause of justice by the readiness they eyincC
to grant them on the slightest pretext; and
the uncourteous disposition shown by The
judges of the higher courts to undo what
has been done in the inferior tribunals, i,
helping with other things to destroy public
respect and confidence in all the courts.

FATAL DEAR HUS-.-The citizens of War
rem living on the borders of the Green
Mountains in Vermont got up bear hunt,
and rallied to surround piece of forest in
which q large bear had taken refuge. The
ring was formed and the men marched in
ward to inclose the animal in the center
where he was discovered, AMI greeted with a
general shower of bullets from every part Of
the closing lines. The bear, which was a
monstrous one, weighing over 400 lbs, was
instantly killed; but sad to say, he was fonnd
not TO be the only victim. A man by the
name of Cas- has been shot through the alb
domen by some careless or excited gunner,
standing on the opposite side of the ring
who aimed at the bear, but needed not the
unfortunate man who stood within range Of
of his bullets Cass, after lingering in ago
ny six or eight hours, expired tie same night
