The Little Giant" is still in New York lay

and intends to remain month or so longer
His friends are confident Of his nomination,
notwithstanding the late arrogant attempt OF
the Washington Constitution to read Dough-
sud Wise out of the party.
Tho Richmond Enquirer claims TO have inn
portant and reliable information relating to the
prospects and views of Senator Douglas with
reference to the nomination at Charleston. It
represents that he entertained no doubt of his
nomination and the adoption Of his platform
lie thinks the question is already determined;
that he can succeed without any aid from the
Middle States; that the united Northwest and
Northeast arc for him, beyond doubt, as well as
sew ralof the Southern States; that he is GER

State. In the South he feels certain of North
Carolina. Kentucky, Argansas, and Louisiana,
though some OF them may vote ballot for
other names. lie regards all the Southern
candidates except Gov. Wise as having virtu-
ally withdrawn from the field. If a Southern
candidate is TO be elected, Gov. Wise is Doug
las man According to the view of the field
taken by Douglas, there are but two candidates
really in the field, Douglas and Wise Once
nominated, Douglas confidently anticipates re.

strongly for Wise first, and evidently avors

Spirit of the DemocrntIc Pres.

The Memphis Enquirer edited by two eE-
democratic United States Senators, Clemens
and Bohand, thus hits the eternity of the dem.
Ocratic party between wind and water:
When we belonged to the democratic party
it was neither cursed with the heresy of dis
union nor dsiigured with the foul slime of cor
ruptiOn. 1t was party Of principle-true to
its pledges, and unialtering in its attachment
to the cardinal doctrine of Jefferson and jack
son. The motley thing which has stolen the
name of democracy bears no resemblance to
the old and sterling organization--is entitled to
none of our allegiance and never was. We
worship in no temple where Toombs, Stephens,
Benjamin, and the like are clothed with the
vestments Of the Priesthood and ofiioate at the
altar.

A Chapter OF Horror.

A correspondent of the New York Journal Of
COmmyes, writing from Singapore, says that
although it is we'll known that the French and
the Spaniards are waging war with the Cochin
Chin ese, yet the causes of that war are not so
well understood, The correspondent, eOnsid-
ering himself competent TO explain the cause,
says: There is a single cause of the present
war, as stated both by the SpaIiards and
French, and that is the horrible butchery and
torture Of Catholic priests and bishops, both
Spanish aud French, as well as native priests
and Christians The persecution commenced
nearly thirty years ago, but has ragged with
the utmost violence for the last few years, while
some of the most revolving cases have occurred
within the last two years, when two Spanish
bishops were most barbaFously put to death,
one named Diaz aud the other MelehOir. 1t is
not alleged that the Catholic missionaries had
interfsred, like their brethren and predecessors
in Japan, with the affairs Of the State, they had
no plots, they created no Disturbances their
only crime was protesting the Christian reli-
gion.
A learned French priest says, that within a
few years twenty-five French aud Spanish
priests haye suffered martyrdom; and two bish-
ops, fifty native priests aud eighty native Chris

Rights Of Foreign Born citizens.


The Richmond Wing suggests the following
very striking illustration Of the absurdity OF
the Administration doctrine respecting the
rights of our foreign born citizens
Suppose a citizen of the United States is
seized upon claim for military service" by
Spain, say, under the circumstances stated by
the Secretary of State, and while he is serving
out his time in the Spanish army, war takes
place between the two countries The citizen
Of the United States is found with arms in his
hand, battling against the very government to
which he voluntarily swore allegiance, and
special allegiance as against his own native
cOuntry-fOT thus runs the tenor of his natu-
ralzation papers. Unless exempted by special
act of Congress, he would, in case he should be
taken by US, be liable to be shot as a traitor.
The seizure of naturalzed American citizens
is becoming an event of frequent occurrence,
and the New Albany Ledger gives fresh and
aggravated instance Mr. John c. Terhoth,
formerly a merchant of New Albany, but more
recently Of Louisville, was lately married and
took his bride with him to Europe on bridal
tour. He was arrested while in Prussia, on a
visit, and impressed into the army. Mr.. T. can
get no relief and not even sympathy from the
Democratic Administration. Gen. Cass coOlly
tells all such American citizens you had no bust
ness to place yourselves within reach of the
despol's power, we can do nothing for you
Better furl our flag than thus disgrace it.

ENORMOUS INcREAsE IN Our IMPORT TRADE
-BREAEERs AHEAD.-By the Custom House
returns, it appears that the imports for the last
week exceeded those of the corresponding week
in 1858 by Sl,792Ol6, and those of the same
week in 1857, just before the panic, by ST.
54l ,955 For six months commencing with
the first Of January, the total amount Of imports
for the present year is s52,s5s,46O, whilst for
the same period in 1857 it was only S45,054,-
ing the effects of the long continued depression
caused by the panic, and the greater eau
ton induced by it amongst the banks, we are
rushing into the excesses which led to the re-
yulsion of that year.

The shnw Rallroad Case.

The celebrated case Of Sarah E. Shaw against
the Boston and Worcester Railroad Company,
which has been in law for seven years and has
excited much attention, has at last been finally
decided in favor Of Mrs Shaw. Mrs s. was
made cripple for life and lost her husband by
being run over, and three verdicts have been
rendered-sl5,Os7, $4,000, s22,24O- each
progr ,ssing in amount, so as to correspond with
the accrued interest and expenses. Mrs Shaw
will now get $4,000, the counsel s4,5OO, and
the railroad Company will have to pay in all
nearly $4,000. The Company would have
made money as we'll as reputation by fair ad.
justment of damages at the time of the distress
ing accident.
