enormously increased the number of combat

celerate the period of that mutual exhaustion
which must ultimately separate the most de-

STAND UP! WIN. II. CLAPP, OF HI
RAM, OHIo.-The eastern papers request
that VIM. H. Clapp, may be passed round,
as "Real Hero" We pass:
As the Boston express train of Satur-
day, coming to this city, was started from
the Depot at Bridgeport, Conn.,, child of
Mrs. Martonce, little girl 8 years of age,
in attempting to pass from one car to an
other, was thrown down, and fell upon the
rail between the cars. TIE accident was
witnessed by VIM. H. Clapp, of Hiram,
Ohio, who was standing on the platform of
the car at the time, and who Instantly, at
the peril ofhis life, sprang down between the
cars, and grasped the child with oue hand,
while with the otherfhe clung to the car,
and ran with the tran until it could be
stopped. The child was uninjured except
the bruises received in falling, but would
inevitably have been killed except for the
presence of and activity of Mr.. Clapp.-
Mr.. C. was severely bruised about his
head. Such acts of heroism should not

Canadian Harvest.

Upper Canada has not for several years
had so bounteous harvest as has lately
been gathered. The farmers along the
line of the Lake Huron road are daily
tcaming to market many thousands of
bushels of wheat, barley, peas and oats,
for which they find a ready sale and receive
cash promptly. The merchants of Brant-
ford alone have distributed hundreds Of
thousands of thousands of dollars among
the farmers, who are being thus enabled TO
meet their liabilities. Under the present
iniquitous tariff of Canada, We aid them
to secure the best price for their grain, bat
they and the merchants and mechanics
with whom they deal are not permitted to
buy from us in return. Reciprocity in its
present practical application is perhaps the
most one-sided bargain ever made by the
United States, and it presses with peculiar
severity on our city, where we are receiv-
ing large quantities Of Canadian produce
aud selling nothing worthy of mention In
return.-Bu6faiy Commercial.

Struck the Wrong Man.

Ii will be remembered that a New
York shoulder hitter, at the Democratic
State convention at Syracuse, knocked Mr..
Slryker, of Rome, the Chairman of The
Soft, aut.-Fernando Wood faction, off the
platform, seriously injuring M. Striker
Thereupon hue and ciy Of virtuous indig-
nation was raise! by the 'Soft" branch of
the Democracy against Fernando Wood
and his Hard hred, DULLES. Poor Wood
was driven out of the party for this act of
his supposed hireling, even Mr.. Dickson
deserving him. Wood protested that it
was not his bully that struck Mr.. Striker,
but Woods character was so bad that no.
body believed.him, and the "Hards" actual
ly pluned themselves as quiet, peace low
ing citizens, and banished Fernando Wool
as bully.
Ii now comes out, however, by the affi
darit of the shoulder hitter himself, that he
belongs to the 'Soft" faction, that he is in
government employ in New York, was
hired by the ''Sofis" to 60 to Syracuse to
break up the Convention if Capt. Rynders
should give the cue, and that be got into
the room where the Convention met by a
'pass" from P=ter Cagger.
The name of this bully is Corney Wood,
and he swears that while Mr.. Stryker the
"Soft'' chairman and Mr.. Alvoid the
"Hard' chirman were both on the plat
form endeavoring to organize the Conven-
ton, Rynders commenced the row, and
Wood thinking it time to Ego in" went on
to the platform, and not personally know
ing the chairman, knocked Stryker off sup
posing he was doing his duty, but after
wards found out that Alvord was the man
he should have knocked down.

AFAREwELL TO HOME.


NV own, my native land, good night,
I'm going far from thee
No other land can seem as bright,
Or have such charms for me:
Though doomed in other climes to roam,
Fo. fortune and for fame.
I'll ne'er forget my Island home,
But love thee still the same.
Upon the gallant ship stand
As she ploughs the ocean blue,
And sadly gaze on the distant land,
Receding fast from view.
And OIL how oft vainly long
To be cheerful and resigned:
My bosom still will heave a sigh
For the loved ones left behind.
Farewell. farewell! fore'er fear
An exile doomed to be,
Yet fondly through each changing year
Ny heart will cling TO thee.
When by oppression forced to roam
From the land fain would save;
l go to seek a peaceful home
In the land of the free and brave.
FAREWELL FAREWELL and may the gifts
OF heaven on thee descend;
And from thy wales and mountain riffs.
The hyms of peace ascend.
May tyranny's relentless grasp
EnsIave thy sons no more.
And freedom, with ber blessings clasp
Thy sea-girt, shamrock shore.

KossUTH's REcREANCY. A Lundou
correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune, who
is either very well informed or very reck-
less, makes some astonishing revelations
With regard to Kossuth's connection with
the late war. Passing over passages in the
Hungarian's life, which seem to betray q
constitutional vaciliation, We come to the
statement relating to recent events
These are that Kossuth went to Paris in
May last, provided with passport which
described him as Mr.. Brown; that there,
through the intercession Of Prince Napo-
leon, be had an interview with the Emper-
or, in the course which he most solemnly
abjured the Republican faith, and in token
of his sincerity offered the crown of Hun
gary TO Prince Napoleon. Having thus
satisfied the Emperor that be was not OBJ
jeetionable 10 his dynastic interests, an ar
rangement was entered into by which he
received three millions of francs, in order
to commence operations. The money was
undoubtedly necessary in order to begin
the equipment and transport of the Hunga-
rian volunteers, but the writer alleges that
of the millions thus put at his disposal, Mr..
Kossuth at once appropriated for his own
personal expenses the rather handsome fg-
ure of $4,000 francs, stipulationg besides
in case the Italian war should end without
leading to the invasion of Hungary, for one
YEAR pension for himself
But high degree Of hbearlty was also
shown to his Hungarian confederates.-
Every one received bis travelling expenses
to Piedmont, also rich uniform, (the
cost of Majors costume amounted to
fl50,) and six months pay in advance,
with the promise Of pay for oue years ser
vices on the conclusion of peace. The So
called Commander in Chief received sala-
nv of 10000 francs, the Generals 5000
francs each the Brigadiers 5000 francs, the
Lieutenant Colopels 1000 francs, the Ma
jors 5000 francs, &c. This arrangement
accounted for the-well-known lecturing tour
last spring, in which Kossuth reversed all
his former expressions respecting LOUIS
Napoleon, and impressed upon England
the Importance and duty Of fsirict neutraiity.

EvicsiOns i'm Ireland..Hears
RendinS Scenes.

Te Rev. Patrick Malone, priest of Bel
mullet, in letter to the Times says:
On the l2th ultimo, the sub-sherif of
the county with large escort of police,
proceeded to the town land of FalImore
and Blacksod, the property of the Rev. w.
Palmer, distant about fifteen miles from
this town, and commenced to evict under
writ for non-title. The work of demolition
continued until 4S families had been left
houseless and homeless, the bare walls on
ly Of their little houses left to stand. It's
impossible to describe the whole scene as h
occurred. When the several little articles
of furniture were flung out upon the streets
and the roofs came tumblng to the ground,
the cries, and the screams and the frenzied
exclamations that rent the air, are more
easily imagined than described.
The loor people had to take shelter in
diiches and the old ruins Of neighboring
churehyard. Their condition up to this
moment is most deplorable. One poor
woman, the wife of Dennis Murphy, under
the exposure Of the night, was seized with
the pangs of travail, and was compelled to
seek admittance to cabin where eighteen
others had taken shelter also. These un-
fortunate creatures are now constructing
huts for themselves on the most novel sites
and plans that intellectual beings could
think Of Through the kindness of "a neigh
boring tenant they are permitted to use the
wild rocky shore Of the Atlantic for hat
purpose. There line of shanties" has
beeu erected, d l am thoroughly con-
vinced that the next equinoctial gales,
should they come from the southwest,

the angry breakers which are went TO roll

that occasion. Pat Gaughan, with FIVE in

live in the same cabin of fourteen feet long,
seven feet broad, and five feet high, door
three feet high.
Owen Lavelle, four iu family, house nine
feet by nine, and five feet high; door,
three feet high.
Such is the character of the dwellings
these poor creatures intend to use during
the winter. They are, moreover, made
without mortar, and none of them has
floor. You may judge how and my
friend had 10 observe sitting posture
while under the roof of each Of them.-
They all seem destitute of comfort not
having even the appearance OF bed or

The SLAVE TRADE.-"Occasional," the
we'll known Washington correspondent ol
the Philadelphia Press, says:
"The.e is no doubt about the fact
that arrangements ofa very extensive char
acter have been made to revive the slave
trade upon our shores. There have al
ready been considerable number of
slaves imported. and some of them are
now owned and paraded about by promi-
nent men of the South, who seem to feel
very much the same sort of pride, in pos
sessing an African negro, who affords in
himself tangible proof of the successful
infringement of the laws against the slave
trade, as some of our Northern Abolition
lists do in concealing and exhibiting to their
friends runaway negro, whom they have
aided to shield from the operation of the
fugitive slave law. There are also a num-
der of vessels now out seeking cargoes of
slaves, with the intention of landing them
at an early day upon our shores, and those
who are thus engaged count confidently
upon the success of their operations. But,
while this trade is being thus really re-
commenced, do not think that any very
strong effort will be made to legalize the
traffic, as re-encoonters bitter opposition in
many quarters of the South, and even the
slave traders will be more active in setting
the law at defiance than in seeking its re-
peal"
We have no doubt that the correspond
ent of the Press is correct. The fire eaters
of the South unquestionably care very little
about the repeal of the law against the AT
rican slave trade; they are perfectly salis-
fed with violating it and setting the Uni
ted States authorities at defiance. They
know very well, that, if they were to bring
half of Africa TO our shores, no jury could
ever be found to pronounce them guilty,
and that, even if they were pronounced
guilty, the Southern people would rescue
them from the custody Of the law.
The fact is those flame devouring heroes
take infinitely more delight in the slave
trade, now that it is piracy by the law, than
they would if it were legalized.-Louis.

He denounced the compromise breakers,
