BsS- 1t will be seen from Sam. johnson s
letter that Hon. Joe Bowman is about to
take up his residence in Olney. OF course,
this will not interfere with the firm of Bow
man " Harrow, in this city. They have al
ready gained an unenviable reputation
throughout this section, and the citizens of
Southern Illinois AMI Indiana will be clad
to learn that they still have the advantage
of their legal knowledge and fidelity Vi,,-

so, we presume the firm would like as few

BaEH A bill has been introduced into
the legislature of Texas, and passed the
House, authorizing a reward of $l0,-
900 for the capture of Cortinas, or any
other of the leaders of the Mexican brigade
on the Rio Grande. This is not very cred
liable to the bravery of the Texans, to try
and accomplish by money what their cour-
age fails to bring about. 1t is a disgrace
not only to Texas, but to the General Gov
eminent, that this brigand should be so
long running at large.

LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION

B3- AS matter of great interest to our
readers of the Opposition, we publish, to-
day, the call from the National Republican
Committee for the Chicago Convention
We must say that it is much more sensibly
drawn than we anticipated. We feared
that it would be an exclusive, hide-bOund
affair, inviting only the "favored few" to
participate; but its authors seemed to
have a realizing sense" of the existence
of somebody besides the straight-out Repub-
licans. In their action so far, excepting
the choice of Chicago as the place of meet
ing, they have shown more wisdom than
has characterized the leaders of the Repub-
lican party on some occasions.

nsy~ The Washington correspondent Of

BSg" The Washington correspondent of
the Cincinnati Enquirer says:
learn that Senators Bright and Slidell
have employed two or three clerks in send
ing off documents to the Southern States,
assailing Judge Douglas, and that they oc-
cupy their time in franking these documents.
Slidell and Bright know that their chances
for the Presidency and Vice Presidency de-
pend upon the downfall of Douglas there
fore they are doing all they can to slaughter
him at Charleston. They'll do it, too.

Bay The article we copy to-day from the
Cleveland PLaindealer, headed Look to the
Senate is worth reading, as showing that
there is an end even to the subserviency of
such men as J. w. Gray, the editor of that
paper-a man who formerly would swear
that black was white if the Administration
and the Southern wire-pullers that con-
trolled it only ordered him to do so. Since,
however, Old Buck took the POstofiice from
Mr.. Gray, the latter mas not been a very
great admirer of the President and his fire
eating masters. He has rather been down
on them with vengeance, on occasions.

FIIImore ON DIR. noynton.

Dr.. Boynton's reputation, as q popular
lecturer, has been long known in other cit
les, where he has never failed TO crowd
large halls 10 listen to his ATTRACTIVE dis
courses ON Geology. We see it stated that
his lectures in Cincinnati, a week or two ago,
were so wellreceived that people were turned
away from Smith & Nixon large hall, una
bic to obtain a seat, or even standing room.
In order 10 give those of our readers who
have not seen the newspaper notices, an
idea of the estimation which intelligent
gentlemen have of these lectures, we copy
the following letter from Ex-President Mil-
lard Fillmore:
BUFFALO, Nov. 10, 1856.
Having had the pleasure of listening to.
DR.. Boyntons Course of Lectures on GeOlo-
gy, recently delivered in this city, and I'M
derstanding that he intends going West with
a view of repeating them, | AM happy to
state, for the information of my friends
there, that his Lectures here, though deliv
cred during the excitement of the political
campaign, were listened to by crowded au
diences of our most intelligent citizens Of
both sexes, with apparent delight and salts
faction. His manner of lecturing is much
more attractive for being oral in
stead of written, and much more
instructive to the popular mind by
being Invested of all the technical
tiles of science, and brought down in plain,
familiar language to the comprehension of
all. The lectures derive additional interest
from the splendid Paintings with which
they are illustrated, many of which are not
only beautiful as works Of art, but very in
structive in presenting peculiar landscape
views and geological formations of the
earth. l can not doubt that his lectures
which are delivered with that earnest en-
thusiasm peculiar to one whose heart is in
his subject, must be useful wherever they
are delivered, and believing this, cheerfully
commend him to the patronage of my friends

81" The following is an eloquent perora-


ton of Mr. Nelson's (Tenn) speech, the
other day, in the House of Representatives !:
Before take my seat, l trust the House
will indulge me in giving utterance to one
or two cid fashioned sentiments, which, in
days past and gone, were common to the
whole American people 1t may excite the
derision of a portion of the disunionists of
the North, and it may provoke the contempt
of the fire-eaters of the South but | say
there is one class of sentiments which, al
though the leaders in the excitement may
strive TO create a feeling of discord in the
minds Of our citizens, | trust all will hold
in common. What are they We love our
country; we love its mountains, its hills, It's
valleys, its streams; we love its peaceful
Sabbaths, its church-going balls, its English
Bibles, and its glorious liberty of conscience.
Applause. We love that feature in every
American constitution which abolishes all
hereditary honors and distinctions, and
enables the poor mans child, 1T has talent
and genius, to climb.
"The step where fames proud temple shines afar e
Applause in the galleries. We love the
star-spangled banner which has waved in
triumph over many Il field of battle, and
protects our commerce upon every sea We
love the memory Of the worlds only Wash
ington. Applause on the floor and in the
galleries. We love the name and the fame
of every hero who has fought, or bled, or
died on the battle-fields of the country Re
newed applause OF them it may Ice said Z.
..They fell devoted but undying;
Tie very gales their names seem signing
The waters murInur of their name,
The woods are peopled with their fame
The silent piilar-l0ne and gray
Claims kindred with the sacred clay
Their memory spariSles DER the fountain,
Their spirits wrap the dusty mountain:
The Eleanest rill-the mightivst river
Rolls mingling with their fame, forever, "
Great applause in the galleries.
We not only love those, but above all.
trust, we love this glorious Union, pur-
chased by the blood and treasure and con-
secTated by the prayers of our fathers, and
preserved by the valor of their children.
We love this glorious Union, repeat, and
we want no abolition, no secession, no dis
union, no notification, no civil wars, no
rocking carnage, no blazing fields, no burn =
ing cities, no military despots to arise and
bid
'.The blood red path of conquest hail"
No, sir, no; we want none of tAis-none
Of these; but we desire to live on as we
have lived in times past, free and united
people; one in mind, one in heart, one in
interest, one in feeling, one in all that
makes a nation great-one III all that
makes people happy. [Great applause in
the galleries.
trust in God that these sentiments will
fill and swell in the American heart as long
as the gliding streams tremble in the sun
shine, leap joyously, and roll to their ocean
home as long as the blue mountains clap
their hands or bathe their faces in the sky
as long us the God of eur fathers shall lead
us in perils 10 come, as he has led US III peris
that are passed, by pillar Of cloud by day
and pillar of fire by night.

He was then not only pastor, but the sexton

DS8S The people of the South, as we'll as
of the North, are in favor of the continuance
of the Union by nine hundred and ninety

THE DOUGLAS CAVE. "-Thurlow Weed
Esq, writing from Washington to the
Albany Ece,.ing Jomrnai, says
1t is true, rs reported, that Senator Doug
las has 'caved.' He goes back, however,
without the right to the last Congress. The
desertion is felt most keenly by the anti
Lecompton Democrats of Penns 5Ivania, and
by the friends of Broderick AND MclSibHan,
one of whom sacrificed his life ind the othe6
his election for a cause which SGnator Doug
las took up and has laid down, IS men put
on and draw off their garments. Like Dam
iel S. Dick inson, of New York, the Illinois
Senator goes back to be strangled. Their
heads will 90 into bag and into the river
just rs go the heads OF rebel Pachas who
offend the Sulta%.-There are nc men more
truly and firmly fixed in their opposition to
the Democracy, now and through the war,
than MeSsrS. Hickman and Swartz, and Col.
Forney, with their 10000 Democrats in
Pennsylvania. Indeed, the men who car
ried Buchanan through Pennsylvania on
their shoulders, in 1856, will now help to
swell the majorities in that State, mountain
high, against the Charleston nominee.
