Death of Mr.. Mike Walsh.

The Hon. Mike Walsh was found lying
dead, with his neck broken, this morning,
about halfpsst 5 o'clock, at the foot of the
steps leading to No. 1873, Eighth avenue
His neck was dislocated and it was supposed
that death was caused by deceased falling
while under the Influence Of liquor. Police
man Courteny Of the 10th precinct, found the
body in this position and had il removed TO
the station house
Some of the deceased's friends were Of the
opinion that Mr.. Walsh had been robbed and
thrown into the area. \ watch and dia-
mond pin he was accustomed TO wear were
said to be missing; but of this there was no
reliable information.
Deceased was a politician Of much noto-
riety and was possessed of extraordinary
natural abilities He was Of incorporate
habits, almost constant frequenter Of bar
rooms, and other resorts Of politicians. He
was three times sent to the Legislature and
once to Congress. His friends ran him
again for Congress. but he was defeated on
that occasion, by Mr.. Kelly. Deceased was
said to have reformed within the past six
months, abstaining almost entirely from the
use Of liquor. He leaves a wife and two

Robert z. Scott, ESQ.

Since Mr.. Letcher has thought proper to
bring this gentleman prominently before the
public, we are grattied TO say. that ut the
proper time. and that not far of, Mr.. Scott
Wilt pay him back with ten fold interest. If
we have a subscber in this world, who, by
accident has preserved single file of the
Supplement- we will give him two year
subscription if he will send US the speech of
Mr.. Ridley of Southampton, on the basis
question, wherein that gentleman arraigns
Mr. Letcher for his abuse of the East and
produces the Ruffner pamphlet upon him in
open Convention and likewise the answer of
Mr. Letcher to Mr.. Ridley, which reply was
couched in language not very polite to the
East and her peculiar institutions. Before
Mr.. Scott takes the stump, he desires to get
these documents, but even should he fail, he
can prove his charges if denied, by such
honorable gentlemen as Samuel Chiffon, Mr..
Ridley of Southampton, and even the chiy-
alrous and gallant Wise, if necessary. We
believe that Robert +. Scott, deals no easy
blow, but from his ponderous hattle-axe, the
foe falls back in terror and alright We re-
ioice that our cause will have the benefit of
his talents WdrTenton Wig.

The Troubles of Monarchy.

If the republics Of America have their
curruptions and evils, the monarchies of the
old world are not free from their peculiar
troubles and in proof of it, We append an ex-
tract from leading article of a late London
Times:
"At this moment Continental Europe is one
vast camp. Not only have the visions of long
enduring peace faded away but every one is
preparing for immediate war While we are
writing, the resolution may have been taken
which is to plunge Europe into blood
Austrian and Piedmontese outposts are
watching each other across II narrow river
The arscnals and fOundres are at work
day and night in France; horses are bought
up; clothes and shoes are manufactured
with all haste, and thousands of men
fully equipped for the field are ready for en-
barkation at the Algerian ports. Austria, on
the other hand, in spite of debt, disatfecton,
and that worst ofenemies, an alienated friend,
in her rear, is as full of the obstinate war
spirit as her antagonist. Her armies are i'm
mense, and they are being marched IN mass
to the points threatened by the French. Po-
sitions have been taken up, Notifications
built or repaired, strong points made strong
er. and the whole resources of trst-rate
military organization brought to bear ON the
defence of a highly-yalued province. Prus-
sia and the German Bund, although highly
Jealous of France, would hardly 60 to war to
uphold Austria's right ofoccupying the Lee
cations. Yet Prussia, Hanover, Bavaria,
Saxony. Wurtemberg, all look upon war "a
a probable eventuality. Their armies are
being put on war footing; heads of depart.
ments are in council together; the export OF
horses is forbidden; patriotic speeches are
made in the Chambers; and, as matter
of course, the CONSUMPTION is heavier than
ever. What passes in the vast and silent
empire of the Car it is not so easy to learn
with accuracy, but there are rumors OF troops
concentrated in Poland. and we may con-
clude that there, too, there is no alienation
of the burdens of an armed peace. But
when we turn to our own country VIC feel
most keenly the situation of affairs. Are
these exactions never to end? Are these ap-
prehensions never to be allayed? Twenty
three millions were spent in ornaments last
wear, and vet the cry is still, Give States
men and Generals tell us we are not secure.
Periodical panics humiliatc Us in the opln-
ION of foreigners, and tend to degrade the
nation even in its own eyes We are aS-
sured by the Premier that no taxes can be
taken off. and that we may think ourselves
fortunate if no new ones are imposed. The
talk is continually Of recruiting soldiers
manning the navy, casting ritled cannon,
and building inyulncrable craft. :"

Lawlessness.

Lawlcssness, it appears, has not yet been
cffectually checked in Baltimore. Officers
McIIenry and Zimmerman, of our city police,
being lately summoned there as witnesses in
IA bank robbery case now on trial, were men
aced, in the immediate vicinity of the court
house, with the vengeance Of rowdies, whose
cnmity they have incurred by the vigilant
and faithful discharge of their duty. Lieut..
McIIcnry confronted his assailants with re.
volvcr in hand, and by dint Of warincss and
resolution succeeded in reaching the mar
shals Office unframed, whence he was e.
cortcd to the Washington depot by the mar
shall and his aids. Officer Zimmerman was
obliged to resort to strategem to escape, and
was escorted by Il friend in buggy to the
Relay house, nine miles from Baltimore,
where he took the cars for this city. 1t is no
ordinary spirit of rowdyisu which threatens
the lives of the officers of the law at II time
when four wretches await, in the prison of
the same city, the ignominious doom which
they meritcd by deeds of riotand bloodshed.
