hope Of palitical prcftrment couc1uslyely and
IL once. 1t is hardly necessary 10 repeat tho
w.ll.lnowa state Of facts which brought
Judges Dixon aud Sloan into tho field and
shaped the issues Of the contest The only
question Of varianco between them on the
record was the appellate Jurisdiction Of the Su.
premc Court Of the United States, The con.
stitutionality Of the Fugitive Slave Law was
not in issue; and lit bad been that fact would
not have constituted Democratic triumph,
though Judge Dixon had received eve
r. vote in tho State. The Hon. Timothy o.
Howe, Of Green Bay, one Of the ablest Repub.
lica"s IN the State, and prominent candidate
for Republican support as Mr.. Durkee's sue
c2ssor in the Q. S. Senate, has always advo-
Gated the opinions in regard to tho appellate
Jurisdiction Of the Supreme Court, which
Judge Dixon las recently proclaimed, and he
has not been disqualified thereby for any
office in the gift Of the party: Prom
inent Republicans in Madison, Milwau-
kee, Racine, Green Bay, and other places,
supported Judge Dixon for the purpose Of re-
cording their individual views on the question
Of the Supreme Courts jurisdiction, notwith-
standing Judge Sloan Was the nominee Of q
Republican Convention. But the best eyi-
dence that the Democracy have nothing to
rejoice over in this election is the fact that for
the first time in at least ten years Of party
strife, they did not dare to make nomination
Of their own. They estimated themselves at
their OWL value when they became mere
make-weight to decide points Of difference be-
tween two wings Of the Republican partE.

An Italian Election.

The recent voting in the Italian Duchits and
the Ronssna, on tile question of annexation,
has brought to light certain characteristics
of the Italian people which Ill men must
praise. A correspondent of the New York
Commercia1 Adrertisfr, who was in Florence
during the. two days in which the contest was
going on, writes that during thut time, though
almost the entire population were in the streets,
ind though the excitement growing out Of the
probable consequences Of their net, was
intense, there was no rowdy demonstEa.
tlons, no yelling, no hooting, no fighting
no drunkenness; there was no riotous, noisy
crowd about the polls, no guard Of shoulder
hitters, no importunate ticket venders, and no
grog shop! So perfect YVES the order, and so
general the interest, that the ladies entered into
the struggle, and at any time they were safe
though in the halls where the voting was pro-
crossing. After the contest was over and the
result declared to be for annexation, the JOY OF
the populace would be no longer RESTRAINED.
Shouts for Napoleon and Victor Emanuel rang
through the city; every house was illuminated !;
the air shook with the roar Of cannon, and rock-
cts strramed up in every direction and burst IN
showers Of stars. 4 whole city was dissolved
in tears Of gratitude and patriotism.
Students Of American history will see IN this
first Italian election, THE order and joy Of the
people, and the unanimity Of the result, close
resemblance to that memorable contest which
after the Revolution placed Washington in the
Presidential chair. That tho Italians, cursed

During the dehntes on the Helper Book in
the House Of Representatives, lii. Fasnswort1,
Of Illinois, noticed book entitled "D!ack Dia-
la,Ads," Ena Published by Pndney d Russell,
Of New York, recommending ihe Slave trade,
piracy, &C., as "ten times worse than the uel.
per book" aud q fitting set.oG" to its endorse
ment by Republican members, inasmuch as the
infamous book, "Black Diamonds, gathered in
the Darkey Homes Of the South" had been re-
commended by Democratic newspapers, includ-
ing both the New York Herald aEd the Wash.
ington Constitution, tho principal organs Of the
party.
1t was then urged, however, that Fansworth
had not made out parallel case, in con.idera-
tion Of the fact tint the Helper book had been
endorsed and circulated By members of Con-
gross, which was not the case with "Dlack
Diamonds"
The parallel is perfected in every point By the
discovery Of the fact of which Mr.. Farnsworth
VAS not awarc at the time Of his speech referred
10, riz:-that the slave trade aud fillibuster
book, Is Black Diamonds" has boen actually en-
dorzed in the most unequiyocal terms, and cir
culated under their trunks by the leading DEM
ocsatic members Of the House of Representa-
tives, including some Of the most prominent
Democratic candidates for the Office ct Speaker,
This is discovery, indeed, to which Mr.
Farusworsh's exposure has the credit Of lead
in.. He has silenced all clamo1s about the
Helper book, and completely covered the Re-
publican party from the false and unscrupulops
assaults Of their enemies.
The following is the "Black Diamonds" cir
cular, signed by Democratic members, with
copy Of the book submitted to them for iuspec-
tom circumstance in which the 1Ielperites
certainly have great advantage, as they signed
