Z NEW JERsEY.-The black Republicans and the
Know Nothngs of New Jersey held their Conven-
tons to nominate candidates for Governor at Tren-
ton on the 9TH instant The black Republicans
nominated Chas s. Olden, and Immediately sent
Committee to the Know Nothings to inform them
what they had DONE and to ask their concurrence.
The Know Nothings concurred, and the two parties
have united on the same candidate. The black Re-
publican Convention adopted resolutions strongly
denouncing the administration, &c. The Know
NothiDgs adopted no resolutions, but stand now on
the republican platform. Are these a portion Of
the Know Nothings relied upon by the Register to
make up great national conservative Opposition"

their first effort to elect him to the Senate of the

JUDGE DoUGLAs.-Judge Douglas has recently ad-
dressed the people at several points in Ohio. He
advocates his doctrine of Territorial sovereignty
with even more emphasis than he did in his Harper's
Magazine essay. In other respects his speeches
breathe sound Constitutional spirit, and defiance
to the abotionists and black Republicans. He con-
cluded his speech at Columbus with the following
language:
1.-THE Democratic party is the only party which
recognizes the equality of the States and the right
of the people to exercise all the rights, privileges
and immunities Of selfgovernment stand firmly
by the Democratic platform of 1856; want no new
planks and no new pillars to strengthen or uphold
it: stand upon the platform and carry the Demo
cratic banner. Let the nominee of the Charleston
Convention take the same position; put him on that
platform, and give him the old Democratic banner,
with all its glorious memories clustering around it,
and the Democracy will march to glorious victory
in 1860"

the delay in the delivery Of the Northern mail If
Mr. Syme, or those going to him to have the evil

been satisfactory, then Mr.. Syme might with some
degree of propriety, have published the article

Forthe information of those who have called on
Mr.. John w. Syme instead of calling at the Office,
to be informed will state in general the time of
arrival and departure of the Northern Eastern, and

The Northern mail arrives at the depot at half
past three O'clock and gets to the postofice at
about o'clock. The mail is opened and put up as
speedily as possible. During the arrival of the
Northern mail and the opening of the same, We have
the Eastern mail to close which leaves the depot at
o'clock, when the Western mail arrives, which is
opened and put up and the doors opened at 81
o'clock, for the delivery of the mail-so that any
one disposed to look at this matter in inn artial
manner, cannot fail to that with the help allow

Other blows were struck, the widest excite

American ol,lzous Abroad-.A surrender.

AT tho age Of nineteen Mr. Christian Ernst
left Hanover and settled in Ohio, where he
subsequently acquired the rights of an Ameri
can citizen. Several months ago Mr.. i. re-
turned to Hanover. on a visit to some relatives
in the town Of Pcine, in the district Of Nord-
helm, when he was arrested ON a charge Of
owing military service, was thrown into prison,
aud obliged for several days TO associate With
the meanest criminals and to share their fare;
and after being robbed by somo officials Of his
passports, $3.50 in gold and his clothing, was
dressed in the uniform of a recruit, and thrust
into the ranks of the Hanoycran infantry.-
When he left Hanover his name had not ap-
peared in the cOnscription, and he was free
from debt, yet in spite Of this, and of his
American passport, upon his return ho was
treated like The commOnest criminal. The
conduct towards Mr.. E. was little short of
brutal.
Mr. Wright, the American Minister, was
applied TO by the friends Of Mr. Ernst, and to
his great credit he went vigorously to work
and procured the discharge Of the American
citizen. He not only demanded his release
from the Hanoverian service. but indemnifca.
tion for the treatment Mr.. Z had been subject
ed to, and for his loss Of time Mr.. Wright's
pomptness and decision brought Hanover to a
surrender, and Mr.. Ernst was discharged from
the Hanoverian army. Whether an indemnify
was made has not yet transpired.
