Subp0aning an Angel.

In an article in the London Quarterly
Review, for April. reviewing Horace Bin
ney's pamphlet relating to theold bar Of
Philadelphia. We find an snecdote Of an
American lawyer, Jeremiah Mason which
we have never seen in print before. II was
told by Daniel Webster: Mr.. Mason was
engaged in defense Of Methodist minis
ter by the name Of Avery, on a charge Of
murder. The professional character of
the prisoner interested deeply his brother
ministers, who in numbers attended the
trial. The case was serious, and the advo-
cate was ascribed intently watching the
progress of the evidence, carefully noting
it. and observing its effects upon the jury,
when one of those ministers, who would
now be called a Spiritualist. was led to
his side, and in great agitation said, "Mr.
Mason, i have a most important matter to
communicate. The Archangel Gabriel
came to my bedside this morning, and
told me that Brother Avery was innocentP'
Without lifting his eyes or pen from the
paper. Mason replied. "Let him be subpen-
ed immediately" and continued his work.

Breckihridge and Lane.

We are authorized To announce that
within twenty days there will be Breck.
inridge aud Lane candidate for Congress
in this Congressional District. No somi-
nation which could have been made by
th. Convention yesterday. would have
been so Objectionable TO the friends Of
Breckenridge and Lane, as that Of Mr
Voorhees,. They regard him as a renegade
from the party that has made him all that
he is, and they say the last renegade shall
receive his just reward.
We are justified 10 further saying, that
there will be Breckinridge and Lane cleo
toral ticket organized in this State 10
few weeks. and that the friends Of the Ad.
ministration and of the marion Of the
Mexican war" will sustain the one
aud stick to the other from first to last.
The Brecknridge and Lane men Of this
city. and those who attended from abroad
it was noticed did not go into the Conven-
tion on yesterday, and hence they do not +,
and will not consider themselves bound
by its action. Every one knows, that but
few weeks ago, Mr.. Voorhees, was an ar
dent supporter of the policy of the Admin
istration now in power-he has received
its bounty, its favors and its offices. His
sudden conversion to that man. whose sci
f.hpess has destroyed the nationality Of
the Democratic party, is remarkable TO
say the least of il. and it would be strange
indeed, If the friends of Breckinridge aud
Lane did not hold him as a renegade aud
an migrate.
Although the Convention yesterday W as
harmonious, yet it was owing to the fact
that the Brsckinridge men did not, nor
would not participate in its deliberations.
They held themselves aloof in order that
their subsequent action might not in the
least be controlled by its action. There
are many Democrats in this Congressional
District. who do not believe in, and will
not follow after this strange god. Popu
lar Sovereignty, aud although young and
ambitious aspirants may do so, yet the
Old Guard Of the Democratic party, those
men who have for years fought in its ranks,
will not. They will not sell themselves
to advance the Interests of any particular
individual. nor will they lend their votes
or influence to give places of trust aud
profit to those, whose conversion TO a new
faith. dates back only one week. before the
places Of trust and profit are to be con.
ferred.

minor position here, few weeks ago
called on an old friend and asked his can

So" said he, and continued, "you wont
deceive me now. as il is important that
should know the truth" His friend re-
assured him that Lincoln would be the
next Presiden, beyond all doubt. "Well,
them" said, "if that is SO, | am for Lin
comb myself. and want you to give me a
certificate in time"
Hundreds of these gentlemen are now in
for "Lincomb." and will have certificates
in time. They never did think RePubli'
cans were half as bad as repre- sente d -
They are getting to be really as good pat
