NoN-INTERCoURsE WITH THE NoRTn.-It
has been chronic with southern journalists for
considerable time to fall into passion over
the manifest dependence of their people upon
the industrial products of the free states. And
the short-sighted men have often recommend
ed the forming of associations pledged to dis
courage or denounce the use of any article
manufactured at or imported from the North.
The Richmond Wing, opposition, has reviv-
ed the old clamor, since the Harper's Ferry
affair turned its head. The best commentary
upon the appeal is the fact that Virginia has
within short period purchased $4,000 worth
of rifles in single New England city to de-
fend herself against the imaginary foes which
the Governor sees upon all her guilty borders.
BY all means let this commercial intercourse be
stopped.

Col, Shaffner, for the purpose of surveying the
route for the North Atlantic Telegraph via
Greenland and Iceland, arrived at Hamilton's
Inlet, lat. 81 3d. on the Labrador coast, on the

Gains and head winds only four days, land at
Glasgow on the 14th of November.) Colonel
Shailher reports that an ocean cable can be
carried in dep sea into Hamlton's Inlet and
thence some two hundred miles in deep water
westward towards Quebec. His soundings
and explorations gave him increased confidence
as to the practicability of the route. The
weather was fine. No frost, nor snow, nor ice,
at shore, VISA found. Passed many icebergs at
sea. Having completed his examinations, Col.
Shafiner was expecting to sail for Greenland
on the 10th of September, making the deep
sea soundings on the route.-Boston Courier.

FATAL LEAP UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
NIGHTMARE.-At Harrisburg. Pa. on the
night of the 18th ult., j. OFT Rockafellow, an
extensive contractor on public works, came to
his death in an extraordinary manner. He
was putting up at the State Capitol Hotel, and
after passing the latter part of the evening in
cheerful conversation with Col. Omit, the
landlord, he retired to his Apartment, which
was about thirty feet from the ground He
was apparently well when he left the parlor !;
but about hafpast two o'clock he got up and
leaped out of the window The noise occasion
ed by his fall awakened some of the boarders
in the adjoining apartments, and upon looking
out they discovered what had happened Mr..
Rockafelow only lived twenty minutes after
he was conveyed from the sidewalk to the
house. His fatal leap was attributed to excite
ment caused by nightmare.

Curtis Criticized.

BAY STATE House, Dec. l, 1859.
MessrS. Editors-It was my good fortune to
attend the lecture, a few evenings since, at Me-
chanics' Hall, on modern nfidelity.
Mr.. Curtis is fine fluent speaker and lee
turer. He defined his position, no doubt. sat.
istactorily to himself and many others, but
not to the entire satisfaction of large class of
this community. He stated many things
which were true, but gave TOO much scope in
his definitions Of the name infdel for the true
believing Christian.
Is it right for public lecturer to give such a
large latitude Of opinion in religious duties as
to mislead the young and inexperienced from
plain fixed duties in the Christian life 4?
think not. Is il a reason for it because Mar
tin Luther did it and came off victorious and
successful! Luther would have remained in
the church all his days if he could have done
1t, and used his powerful mind in reforming
the corrupt church Of Rome but he could not
do it, and was obliged to stand out almost
alone and advocate the cause of his Master.
But shall we leave our respective churches
at the present time and each stand out alone
and singlehanded? or shall we work in our
own chlwches and help on the Rcdeemer's
Kingdom and bless mankind
One young man, quite juvenile in his APP
pearance, who heard the lecture OF Mr.. Cur
tbs, said that he waS in the same condition

speeches.
Special Dispatch to the New York Tribune
CHARLEsTowN, Va, Nov. 30.-According
to Gov. Wise's orders, no one will hereafter be
permitted to see the prisoners, except the au
thorities and clergymen. Browns interviews
with the Rev. Mr.. Waugh resulted in a differ
ence of opinion on the question of slavery.
He now refuses to see him or any of the
Charlestown ministers again. The other pris-
oners welcome them gladly.
Brown will be executed just before noon on
Friday. The Sheriff will take him in charge
at 10 O'Clock. The last privilege granted to
Brown will be the choice between riding and
walking to the scafiold. No strangers are adj
mitted here. A guard attends the arrival and
departure of every train. Even residents can
not go about after shutdown.
Mr.. Egerton, member of Congress from Ohio,
came here Monday afternoon with petition
from Browns son, for the dead body OF his
father. This Yves peremptorily refused, and,
two hours later, Mr., Egerton went out of town
in an open wagon, guarded by four of the
Black Horse Rangers.
military band gives nightly serenades of
merry music. This, in the midst of panic and
preparations for death Nero fiddled while
Rome burned. A brother Of 'Coppie, in dis
guise, was this morning arrested at place
about thirty miles distant. He was taken to
Jail, and identified by Cook. All the other
prisoners refused to recognize him.
From the Richmond News.
WE SHAN'T GO TO CHARLEsTowN.-Since
the recent orders of the Governor, we have
determined not to be at the execution of Brown.
We understand that his Excellency has order
ed that rope be placed around the gallows,
whose radius shall be 900 yards, making the
space enclosed 5000 yards in circumference,
and that any one, save the militia, who comes
within the boundary, shall be indiscrminately
shot at. We shall, therefore, wait for the tele-
graph, and not jeopardize our life by an APP
proach to the gallows.

AN lRREPREssIBLE CoNFLICT.-We learn
that there is just now something of a conflict,
and no little excitement, among the people
connected with the Episcopal society in Will
kinsonville. Rev. Mr.. Spalter, the clergyman
employed by that society, has been called to
account and punished by Bishop Eastburn, for
too much liberality towards clergymen of the
Congregational persuasion. He has presumed
to exchange pulpits with Rev. Messrs. Jessup
of Millbury, Stafford of Northbridge, Dennis of
Squan, N. j., and some others. Our inform.
ant states that the Bishop, having taken the
matter in hand, notified Mr.. Spalter that he
had "violated canon of the church" and ask
ed him :-"How dare you do so" The Of
fender replied that the canon in question was
man-made rule, and did not bind his con-
science; but this reply was not accepted as
satisfactory. Bishop Eastburn put Mr.. Spalter
under censure and suspended him from preach
ing in Wilkinsonviile. But, it seems, he con-
tinued rebelliousy TO preach there until Sun
day, Nov. 10th, when the church was shut and
barred against him by the gentlemen who own
it; and on the following Sabbath another cler-
gyman was introduced to the congregation
Such is the story as related to us by one of
MIR. Spalter's friends, who asks us to publish
the following communication =
EPISCOPAL equation. THE Rev A. d.
Spalter, pastor of the Episcopal church at
Wilkinsonville, Mass, has been forbidden to
preach in the Episcopal church by the Bishop
of the diocese. The reason assigned by the
Bishop is, that he had exchanged with Con
gregational clergymen, though assured by his
people that it was agreeable TO their wishes for
him to do SO, they having passed resolution
to that effect to wit =
Resolved, That our minister, the Rev. A.
d. Spalter, be, and is hereby, authorized to
exchange with all Evangelical ministers at his
pleasure"

THE CONFLICT IN DELAWARE Which shall
TRIUMPH "A great cutlery was raised by the
Democrats some months ago, because William
ii. Seward remarked that an ''irrepressible
conflict was going on between slavery and
freedom, and that one or the other would even
tually triumph-that freedom or slavery would
become universal in our country. A greater
truth than this was never uttered. 1t matters
not what people may think or say, this conflict
between free and slave labor is going on. 1t
has its origin in nature and operates as GER
talnly and as surely as any of the laws which
govern our bodies. We cannot escape it if
we would, so long as the power of loco
motion, or Of freedom to remove from
one portion of the world to another.
IS given to our race. Life is a contin.
al struggle. Men are forced to fight, as it
were, for eXistence-to fight for food and cloth
ing for their wives and their little ones and
where the climate is congenial, free labor is
tanning the mastery over slave labor and the
system Of chattel slavery is dying out. This
is the case in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia,
Kentucky, and Missouri, or at least in some
portion of each of them, and in the lapse of
years it will become extinct This is a fact ::
and whether it is popular or unpopular one,
it matters not. Whether popular or unpopu-
lar, ii is all the same. The tide of population
will roll on, the struggle for existence will be
continued, and either white or slave labor will
triumph. Wilmington (Del0 Republican, (cOn-
