FACTS AND RUNoRs.-It is said that intelli-
gence received here by the Spanish Legation,

government, is much more pacific towards the
United States, and it is asserted that our new
Minister will be received with all the honor
due bis rank.

tract for the conveyance of the mails between
New Orleans and Washington within schedule

the right to protect the transit route across the
isthmus in certain contingencies, without being
called upon to do so by Nicaragua.

The TEHUANrEPKc TRANsIT.-The Washing
ton correspondent Of the New York Herald
says:
authentic source, that Miramon has entered into
negotiations with foreign governments to cede the
control of the whole section Of Mexico known as
the Tehuantepec. Thus one by one, the transit
routes are passing away irretrievably from the
United States, while Europe is drawing closely
the cord that may shut us from Pacific posses
sions. The administration have the whole matter
before them, and ii remains to be seen what they
will do.''
The Agent of the Associated Press telegraphs
the following in connection with the same SUBJ
ject:
"a report prevails here, founded on private ad-
vices, that Gen. Miramon has negotiated a secret
treaty with France and Sardinia. by which France
is to furnish funds to carry on his war; and Mira
mon cedes TO them the Isthmus Of Tehuantepec
etc, but Government, for reasons satisfactory
to itself, does not attach any importance whatever
to the runor and regards it as too ridiculous to be
believed, and especially, in the present warlike
condition of Europe"
These two rumOrs are floating about here
much to the relief of the wonder -mongers, who
have had dull time of late. As far as we can
learn, they are not believed in official circles
to have a Trustworthy foundation. 1t is charged
that theywere put in circulation by parties in
the interest Of the Juarez faction in Mexico
for the purpose of increasing public sympathy
in this country for that party. 1t may be, and
no doubt is true that not only MiramOn, but
probably all the other leaders of factions in
Mexico, have endeavored to borrow money
from European and American capitalists, and
have offered to pledge the public lands of Mex
leo as security.

WARRINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.

A NEW TENr.-Yesterday there was ex-
hibited in the space between the War and
Navy Departments a tent composed Of i've
gutta percha knapsacks, somewhat after the
styIe of the Teute d'ArbrS of the French ser
vice, under which most Of the French army
yintered, as we'll as summered, in the Crimean
war. 1t not only attracted great attention
from those connected with the army who in
spected it, but received their unqualified
praises rs being an invention or arrangement
Of great economy, comfort and convenience
1t consists Of FIVE knapsscks (cloths) 8 feet 8
inches wide, by 5feet 3inches long, 30 arranged
with straps, studs button holes, &C., as to allow
them to be quickly joined together for a tent,
and 50 pitched with dispatch. The straps,
studs, buttonhOles, &C., are used for making
the cloths close and convenient knapsacks or
horsemen's valises when on the march. Or
again, as coverings for ammunition, or aught
else requiring particular protection from the
weather. In the space at our command to-day,
it will be impossible to give detailed descrip-
ton of the arrangement Of this new knapsack-
tent. But in justice to the inventor, Mr. John
Rider, Of No. IA, Broadway, New York, we
may say that the experts present, one and
all, seemed to regard it rs supplying heretofore
greatly needed desideratum for the United
States frontier service particularly.
Mr.. Rider also exhibited on that occasion a
gutta percha water keg, which ELECTED quite as
much encomium as the knapsack-tent Its de-
sign is to serve not only for carrying water, but
for pontoon bridges and coverings for powder,
as may be required.

THI LAST

Republicans of Delaware county, the time
for argument has passed-the lime for action
has arrived. On Tuesday next a contest takes
place which is to have a most important bear
ing upon the Presidential election of l860-is
to determine whether the principal executive
offices and the legislation of our State are to be
committed for two years to come to Republi-
can hands, which will insure an economical and
efficient administration of public--afairs or,
by confding power to the bogus Democracy,
inflict upon the people a continuance of the cor
ruption and extravaganza which has always
characterized the rule of that party-a con-
test, too, which is to determine whether for
the coming six years the sentiment of the peo-
pie of Ohio is to be truly represented in the
U. S. Senate by a man worthy to sit and vote
with B. F. Wade, or misrepresented, as it has
been for the past six years by Geo. E. Pugh
or some equally seryile ~dough-face and obedient
tool Of the slave power.
In these issues the Republican voters of this
county have a deep interest, and a important
part to act. By polling our full Uote we will
do our share in swelling the triumphant ma
jority by which our State ticket is destined to
be elected-and a full rally is necessary, nay
indispensable, in order to place beyond doubt
the election of our candidates for the Leglsla-
ture and on their success or defeat may de-
pend the political complexion of the Legisla-
ture.
Look to it, then, Republican brethren OF the
townships, that your Organization rs thorough
and complete and if not so, AXE instant steps
for effecting it. No Republican voter must
be left at home who can be got to the polls
and if this matter is seer to by being earnestly
taken hold of and effectively attended to, we
will roll up in old Delaware such a majority
for the Republican ticket as we have never
given before.
Let US, therefore, lose no time in concen
trating our forces, forming them in column,
and marching to the conflict. Let us be early
on hand, devote the achole day to the cause, keeI
our lines unbroken, pres ent a united front tt
the enemy-Uote the Republican ticket, the WHOLE
result will be the triumphant election of oul
candidates from Governor to Infrmary Direc
