We may also remark that tho republicans
OF the New World showed themselves oil the
more open and generous in their manifesto
tons Of hospitality, that they are conscious
OF their strength, and that their indspen-
dence 10 irrevocably secured. Several in.
stances might be cited to show the truth Of
this remark Of New York. The bell Of
the Oldest Episcopalian Church pealed out
"God save the Queen" No citissn was
alarmed thereby; and yet, when Dr.. Irving,
the officiating minister Of that church lust
after the Declaration Of Independence, had
the impradencc to read the usual PRAYER for
the King Of Englaad, he was expelled from
his incumbency. Now, tho English national
hymn can DO longer offend any American
| sensibility; and when the Prince OF Wales
appeared at . theatre the whole house rose
and sang "God save the Qusen'' with the
actors, as in English theatres when the Queen

On the whole, the reception Of the Prince
OF Wales in the United has been worthy oil
the American democracy as we'll - OF him.

ExTRAoRDINARY HEAT IN KANsAs.-Thc
Coolest inhabitant'' in this part OF the West
has never experienced such season as the
present. For ten months the windows Of
heaven have been closed, and vegetation, in
consequence, is nearly destroyed. The whole
country, stretching away to the south and the
southwest as far as the Gulf of Mexico, con-
sisting mostly of broad and boundless prairics,
is in this condition. The prevailing winds
here are from the southwest, and, coming
across these hot prairies, their temperature is
raised to most uncomfortable degree by the
time they reach this part of Kansas. The 81
roccos Of the Libyan desert are not more OPP
pressive. The mercury on several occasions
has run up to one hundred and ten degrees in
the shade, and reports state that men and
beasts caught outin these siroccos have per-
ished. The crops in Kansas have almost en-
tirely failed, and farmers in consequence are
very seriously embarrassed.

REMARKABLE DEVELOPMENTS BY THE CEN
sUs.-A volume might be written on the Gu
riosites of the census. 1t turns up phenome-
ma of all descriptions-old women of 100, still
making patchwork bedquilts, or sewing an as
tonshing quantity of carpet rags daily, all of
whom knew General Washington intimately,
while the number of revolutionary pensioners
would seem to be increasing-bad luck to Mr..
Cobb and his treasury balance, if he has any
worth naming. Our state has its share of
these Oddities The marshal in Lebanon coun-
ty makes this return for Cold Spring township;
Population, al no deaths, no farms, no
grain raised in the township; no churches J;
one school, with thirty scholars, and IA UNI
occupied houses More empty houses than
population This extraordinary return has
puzzled almost everybody. The press ridicules
it as showing how little dependence can be
placed on the returns, while some insinuate
that the marshal must have been either drunk
or Dutchman. But the fact is, the return is
correct, strange though it be. Cold Spring
township is all mountain, and therefore no
farms nor crops. Some years ago there were
coal mines opened within its limits, and a rail.
road was built to them All this made work,
and the workers built themselves shanties all
over this most bleak location. But an unex
pected calamity overlook both railroad and
coal mine-the supply of coal gave out; the
railroad burst up. These Joint calamltles
drove all the new corners away, and hence the
one hundred and forty four unoccupied houses
that now figure so strangely in the returns.
Without explanation, the fact thus reported
would be good cause for doubling the accuracy
of the census But the fact is significant OF
the almost ruinous vicisstudes by which the
early coal business in the state has been at
! tended

very Rnimating. Twelve thousand people
were on the ground. The wagons of the sew
eral delegations were disposed about the
outskirts OF the crowd among the trees
Three thousand of the audience were
ladies, and directly in front OF the stand
was carriage containing thirty-three of the
most charming young women that Wayne
could furnish In the evening there was more
speaking from three stands. The Wagons
were drawn up in immense circles round the
stands, and a huge bonfire was lighted which,
with the torches and rockets, produced won
derfully brilliant effect. During the evening
there was grand display of the Wide-Awakes,
OF whom there were $50 in attendance. The
Detroit Tribune, reporting the meeting, says:
After the procession was formed, Captain
Robertson gave the command to 1ightuP, and
in the space of four minutes every torch was
blazing. The battalion was formed in two
files, and after going through with the manu-
al, the pieces were brought to shoulder
arms, and the command given to 'righ. face
at which order four files were formed, each
containing about 125 men. The manner in
which the battalion was formed caused the
files to reach for about one third of mile.
The command was given TO march, and the
bands striking up, the long rows of light were
seen moving along i'll regular order through
the streets, which were densey crowded
that it was with the utmost difficulty space
enough could be procured for the eyeutions.
Over the bridge and up the hill the lights
glided along, making a magnificent display.
the effect being heightened by the sharp and
quick commands OF the captain, and their re-
petition by the lieuterants along the line the
inspiring strains of the bands, and the contin-
ued cheering of the accompanying crowds of
spectators. AS the procession neared the
ground where the speakers were addressing
the assembled thousands, the crowd in the
streets became more and more dense, until not
place was left vacant, aud all that was visi-
bic was the sea OF heads and torches waving to
and fro, and the rockets as they sped athwart
the sky, and as the procession came in full
view of the speakers stand, such a mighty
shout went up that the very buildings shook,
and every democrat for miles around choked
and trembled in fear at the evidence that his
unrighteous party was so nearly at deaths
door. The shout was repeated again and
again, and ended in three soutinspiring cheers
for Lincoln and Hamin."

By the kindness of a friend we have been
favored with the subioined extract from a
private letter, dated Constantinople, July
25th, from Rev. DR.. Dwight, American
missionary to Constantinople. No man has
better opportunity of learning the exact
truth. Alter giving account Of the riot,
which agrees entirely with that of our own
correspondent, published on Thursday DR..
Dwight goes on to say =
AS might be expected, the representatives
of the foreign Protestant powers at the Porte
are greatly aroused by those disgraceful
scenes. a meeting of five of them was held
last Friday at the British embassy and a very
strong note was addressed by them Jointly to
the Porte, making some demands which can
hardly fail of being complied with, and which
must make noise here The Porte have just
now officially informed Sdepan Effendi, the
head of the native Protestants, that it has
come to the decision to present to this commu-
nifty ground for separate cemeteries of their
own, in three or four different places around
the capital.
Much bitterness of feeling is now manifested
toward US, and toward our native brethren.
We cannot walk the streets without being in
suited. The general state of feeling here is
anything but satisfactory. The events which
have occurred i'll Lebanon and Damascus seem

of mussulmans and christians of this city.
The outrageous proceedings of the Armenians
at the burying ground, so unlike their former
character, are strongly suspected of having
had foreign instigation, and it is firmly be-
lieved that the great object was to provoke the
Turks to fire upon the mob when the hue and
cry would be raised that mussulman tanaticism
had shed christian ~ blood, and tens of thou
sands of christians in this capital would have
started up to revenge it; which, OF course,
would have brought on general and terrible
civil war in the streets and houses of Constan-
tinOpe.
'In fact, we see reason enough on all sides
to apprehend that such thing may be brought
on every day. May the Lord avert it by his
providence. One thing is becoming more
and more certain, namely, that the real dis
turbers of the peace in Turkey are the So
called Christians of the country. The Maron-
ties of Lebanon first provoked the Druses,
though the conduct of the latter has been such
as to call forth the Indignation of the whole
civilized world. The Armenians were the
sole cause of the dsgracetul scenes here, and
so it has been on all similar occasions hereto.
