The CHARLESTON NoNISEE,-In the nomina-
ton to be made at Charleston in April next
such policy should be adopted as would har-
monte the conflicting elements and make us an
unit. Let no ultra man who has taken antag-
onistical grounds upon the exciting topics OF
the day be placed upon the ticket Let tile
candidate for the next Presidency be a national
Democrat, standing upon the broad platform OF
the American Union, knowing no North, no
South, and bearing aloft the principles of Jack
son and Jefferson. With such candidate we
are willing, for our part, to risk the destiny Of
the government. JOHN G. BREcKEsRIBGE is a
man that the party can elect. He is not ultra
in his views, neither does he take part in the
sectional squabbles of tho day. The national
position he has taken places him prominently
before the people untrammelled with any Of
the entangling alliances that have destroyed
the hopes of so many good men Of this coun-
try. We are anxious to see the old democratic
standard floating in the breeze without a stain
to tarnish il il is the standard that the whole
American people can rally around; one that
we have been used to reverence from our boy
hood and which we believe is tho only safe
guard to our liberty fla national man isnomi-
mated there will be no trouble about the result

INTERCHANGE OF CoMpLIMBNTs.-Princc Ma
poleon, son of Jerome, is said to be on the eve
Of making five-days visit to London, and the
Emperor of Austria is reported TO be on the
eve of becoming the guest of thc'Emperor of
the French, in the rural retirement of Com
paigne Queen Victoria will probably be in
Windsor or Osborne when Prince Pon-Plon Wis
its London, in which event she must receive
and entertain him. The Austrian Emperor, at
the French court, will be made the object Of
every attention-so much so, that he well may
wonder whether his host really is the person
who defeated him at Solfeiino, few months
since. Politics, like misery, gives man strange
bed-fellows.
The Emperors Of Austria and Russia are alAs
to have a friendly meeting at Warsaw. There
has been some GOODNESS between them, owing
to the position Russia took during the late war,
but no quarrel. If they should agree to make
common cause against Napoleon2 More i'm
probable events have lately occurred.
Queen yictoria's son, Prince Albert, the mid
shipman, is about visiting the Sultan, at Con-
stantinople. The young gentleman is learning
navigation very pleasantly, at any rate.

WASHING MACHINES.

We copy the following from West Chester
paper;
ave suppose there has been more humbug
washing machines invented than any other
kind of machinery. The cock-loft is full OF
them, but the long looked for has come at last.
"The Emancipation advertised in another col
uinn, is n machine that throws q woman s
knuckles and wrists altogether in the shade.
1t is truly to woman an "cmancipator' from
toll and labor of the sevcrest kind. great
many people talked to us about this machine,
but we were incredulous, Al last SO many
words of praise met us that we determined to
try one, and we apprehend that il any one was
to come and steal it away, there would be
nearly as much trouble in the household as il
our baby boy was carried off by the Gipsies
1t does its work perfectly, and those who love
the women, and who does not, should prompt
" procure one. But seriously this is a great
invention and will save immense labor 1t
works by pressure and does not wear the
clothes at all. We are perfectly willing to
stake our reputation on this piece of machine
ry Woman must throw aside their prejudices,
give ii fair and impartial trial, and our word
for il, it is great success. Our friend, VIM.
A. Moore, is the agent for this washer, and he
is disposng of them like hot cakes"
They are manufactured at the machine shop
of George G. Lobdell by Lewis Paynter, who
has the right of the State of Delaware. Per-
sons wishing any information concerning these
machines will do well to call on Mr.. Paynter
at Mr.. Lobdelrs shop.

AUSTRIA, FRANCE, AND SARDlNlA.-There are
conflicting rumors in Europe, as we learn
by the foreign papers by the Persia, respecting
the Zurich Conference. One account has it
that Austria refused to sign the treaty of peace,
considering that the compact of Villa Franco
has not been acted up to, and making pecuni-
airy claims on Lombardy which France will not,
and Sardinia cannot accedc to. The set-oif to
these claims would be the expenses of the
war, which, provoked as it was by the tyranny
Of Austria in Italy, ought not be borne by
France and Sardinia. On the other hand tits
declared that the treaty of Zurich would be
Immediately completed, after which there is
to be Il Conference of the Great European
Powers, England included, finally TO adjust the
affairs of Italy 1t is also said, but seems al
most incredible, that France makes demand,
upon the King of Sardinia, of an indemnity
from Piedmont of the expenses of the war
almost incredible because Victor Emmanuel
was not allowed to have any voice in the adj
justment at Villa Franco.

THANKSGIVING DAY,


By lis EtelieHcy, Hiiiam Burton. Gorernor q
the State NJ Dciduat.
IT Is the duty of a Christian people, at III
times, to return thanks TO the Great Oliver 0
all good and perfect gifts, for the innumerable
blessings which lie Is continually showering
upon them: but more especially is itright and
proper that n day should be set apart when we,
whoare blessed above all other nations, should
with humble penitence and grateful hearts,
bend the knee together, and with one voice
thank Him from whom all blessings flow for
the priceless liberties which we enjoy For the
early and the latter rains, which have blessed
us in basket and IN store, while famine and pow
erty have been the lot Of others; For the sun
shine of peace, under which we bask in careless
contentment, while the demon of war carries
terror and misery to those even beside us; For
the health which strengthens our frail bodies,
while pestience walketh abroad through less
favored countries, with misery, desolation, and
DEATH as his fearful companions; Forthe genial
sun and frequent showers, without which the
husbandman would have toied in vain; For
the gentle winds which have filled the sails of
the mariner; For the success which has re-
warded the energies of the merchant; For the
regular and constant employment afforded to
the mechanic and the laborer and for the good
and equal laws which protect all alike in the
enjoyment of life, liberty, and property.
Therefore, I, WILLIAM BURTON, Governor of
the State of Delaware, in humble reverence, do
appoint THURSDAY, the twenty-fourth day of
NOVEMBER next, as a day of general thanks
giving and praise to Almighty God, and do re-
commend its appropriate observance by the
citizens of this State
In testimony whereof, have hereunto set
IT,. $. my handand caused the Great Seal of the
State of Delaware to be affixed, at Dover, this
twenty -sixth day of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and fifty
nine, and of the Independence of said State the
eighty fourth WILLIAM BURTON.

The FRIeArE BIRD-The following is the ac-
count given by the Bishop of Norwich at the
late meeting of the Ipswich Museum Of Natural
History. lie had sent to the museum that DAY
a specimen of the frigate bird-whch was lit
orally tenant of the air; it lived in the air.
slept in the air, and never came to the shore
except in the breeding season. The explana-
tion of this extraordinary phenomenon was
as simple as possible. 1t was admirably con-
structed for the purpose of its existence. 1t
had an enormous pouch beneath its throat, its
skin was loose, its bones and arteries were like
air-vessels; and with an extraordinary expGn
sion of tail and wings it could, by imbibinng
a quantity of air, and rarefying it within its
body, become, in fact, an cir balloon. In this
mannerit floated in the air during sleep.

| A TRIAL OF RIFLEp SIx-rouspER was made
raj military officers of the Mexican "Consiitu-
tional" government. The firing was cxtraordi-
nary, and rivals that of the most complex
| French and English pieces The gun is a COM
mon bronze cannon, five feet long, weighing 5s9
pounds, and is rifed with eight grooves. The
target five by seven feet, moored Mt a mile dis
lance, received six out of eight shots after the
gun was brought to bear upon IL, five ofwhich
were within twenty inches of the bulls eye
This success is attributed to a new construction
of projectile, invented by the late Andrew
lIotchkiss of Connecticut, and said 10 have
been recently much improved. After the tar
get practice the muzzle of the gun was eleyn-
ted and shots thrown to distances yariously es-
tmated between three and four miles The
projectles are oblong, weighing nine and
three quarter pounds each, and were fired on
the long range with fourteen ounces Of Du-
Points powder-N y. Sun
PoLITicAL EXCITEMENT AT BALrTNoRE.-The
American party held large meeting in Monu
ment Square, on the night of the 9th, and the

fireworks, the firing of guns, cannons, etc. AID
dresses were delivered by Henry Winter Davis,
Morrison Harris, Judge Crane, Of Virginia, and
Others
The Tenth Ward procession was headed by
a man on horseback, carrying large awl. The
Eighteenth Ward had blacksmith shop, in
which men were engaged in making avis.
These were designed to caricature the use of
avis at the polls on election day.
