From Panama.
New York, Monday, Octobt

Ne" orh, MOnday, OctODeI o.
The Northern Light which arrived here
last ev-ning, brought a Panama Star and
Herald of the 29th ult.
An attack had been made by an armed
band of rebels against the Government of
the city of Panama, but they were repulsed
with a loss of five or six killed and fifteen
taken prisoners. Five Of the Government
forces were killed. The ring leaders are
supposed to be CarrezO and Blanche, both
oi whom escaped.
The skirmish lasted about three hours,
commencing on Thursday. 29th.
The Government forces numbered about
two hundred. comprising soldiers, police
and volunteers.
The rebels had retreated to the woods,
having been made aware Of the landing of
forces from the British man Of war SAINT
Norys.
The .Star says the landing of the forces
from the vessels undoubtedly settled con
liict which looked Dubious for tEe..Govern-
ment
The forces from the ST. Marys took pos
session of all the road stations, but no at
tack was made upon them by the insur-
gents.
There was still great deal Of excitement
among the natives of Panama on the Goth,
AS it was supposed the insurgents were
encamped within mile or two of ;he city
A strong force was still under arms by
the Government.
The foreign population took no part in
the affair. The trouble it was thought
originated in the attempt OF the general
Government TO force recruits into the army
aided. perhaps, by politicians, and thus
endeavor to obtain their end by melting
revolutions.
The British force had returned to Clio
on the 28th. considering that there was
no further necessity for their services.
A revolution in favor of ex-Pre :ident

The Vote of New York.

The New York Haraid, in commenting
upon the formation of the Union Electoral
ticket la New York remarks:
rhe republicans have their well grounded
fears of the popular vote Of this city and
lis surroundings. They have been using
every exerlion and every device; they have
been lavish of thoir money, and their NEE
tinys and orators, 10 make an Impression
upon this stronghold of Northern conserv-
alism. Their famous torch light Wide
Awake procession the other evening. made
up one half of reiniorcements from our rur-
al districts and from ether States. was a
desperate effort to make capital in behalf
Of Lincoln in this community; but the ex-
pertinent was a failure We had been prom
ised "a parade of thirty. forty, and even
fifty thousand Wide Awakes; the people
expected at least thirty thousand; bat
when the reality cut down that number to
ten thousand. thero was universal dis
appoin ntment, and very general conclusion
hat the Republicans are exag ggerating their
strength in more important matters. We
dare say. too. that the visiting Wide
Awakes from other places have returned
home with anything but encouraging re
membranes of their New York parade;
for except Republican stations along the
route, the countless multitude of spectators
were as silent and solemn as at Bill Poole g
funeral.
From this. and o:ber recent manifesto
tions of public sentiment here, We have
no hesitation in saying that on the impor-
tant day of November the Empire Cily. III

ticket should cross the Spuyten Duyvil
creek at the head of this island. full sixty
thousand in advance of the ticket of Lin

publcans are evidently apprehensive. and
hence their industrious efforts to make q

One -Idead Men.

Mr. SEWARD. in his Dubuque speech,
has a long defense of 'one idead men, Mr..
SEWARD palters with the public sense on
the whole subject For example. he tells
Us that WASHINGTON was one dead man
This. We repeat, is patering with cur com
mon sense. No man ever claimed that
some one object might not justly and nat
urally be made prominent at any given and
proper time. What has been coniended
is, that one idea shall no, SO pervade and
coler every other thought. as 10 Greats an
undue and unnatural subordination of all
others; that twenty five millions OF freemen
have some right to consideration as well
as four millions of slaves. that the progress
of the world, the good of the human fam.
lily and the Union of the S ates. ought not
utterly to be dwarfed by the inevitable and
almighty niger. One-idea men may be
useful men in some things, but are the
most dangerous of siatemcn. He who
would rule great nation must take a
broad and comprehensive view of the
whole field of his operations. This is the
first great aud all important requisite Of a
statesman. This was possessed By Wash
inglon in a high degree. The universalitality
and equilibrium Of his genius Was
it's chief characteristics. To intimate that
Washington was one -idead man is to
slander his memory and tarnish his fame.

E-The Cincinnati Gazette, like most
other Republican papers. has recently been
making desperate effort to show that
Breckenridge is by all odds greater man
than Douglas, and 'ha, he is gong to sweep
Kentucky and the South like a whirlw;nd.
But the following from the last Gazette, it
will be seen that it has changed its mind
both as to Mr.. Breckenridge ati.ity and
popularity:
Mr.. Breckenridge has twice recently
appeared in the field with a set speech,
hiblis the extent and callbre Of his abilities
has a statesman and orator. He does not
seem to shine very brightly il either
character. lie has mistaken his position
and feels it, 1t was a great blunder for
rising man of Kentucky TO take sides
with the secession party Of The South
Kentucky has no sympathirs that way
The nation has no sympathies with it;
and it has narrow, confined, unpatriolic
sphere Of action. Why not take the broad
and liberal side which sympathlzed with
the best interests Of the country and the
best feelings of mankind? Let any man
contrast either of Mr.. John G.. Brecken-
ridge speeches with that of his uncle
j. Breckenridge. on the destiny of the ne
groes, and it will be seen at once which
is the man of mind. and thought, and
strength. Kentucky may rs well give
up the idea of making a great man out OF
John c.. RreckenriJge He has been
much overrated.

Strength of the Douglas Movement.

Mere politicians fail to appreciate the
character of the present Presidential cam
paign or TO estimate correctly its probable
result. The strength of Douglas is in the
hearts of the people. The movement in his
favor is essentially popular one. which
grows day by day and increases in strength
as the contest advances. 1t is particularly
streng in the interior among the masses in
The country. The popular impulse is to
support Douglas 1t is carrying along
with it not merely Democrats, but very
generally Americans, and 10 large extent
Republicans-especially those formerly
connected with the Democratic party. The
plain men of the country do not readily
see the wisdom of the Secession doctrine
Of Intervention by Congress to protect
Slavery. or of the Republican doctrine of
like Intervention 70 prohibit Slavery.
But they can see and appreciate tie
wisdom of Douglas moderate, sensible
and middle ground of Non intervention
Of keeping the slavery excitement out of
Congress. and having that body let the
people of the Territories alone, and leave
them TO manage their own domestic con-
Germs. This is plain. practicable wisdom.
which every farmer, mechanic and labor
er can understand, and can therefore see
good reason Why he should support
Douglas. When the people OF the interior
come to vote, the strength of the Douglas
movement will be understood, and when
the election returns come in, and the ma
jorities from the rural districts roll over
them, lis opponents will awake with
amazement from their false appreciation
of his hold upon the hearts Of the people.

Ordinance. very clearly and su ccinctly, as
follows:
The stupid fallacy has beer put forth
that the Ordinance Of 81 was a part Of the
Constitution. That Ordinance amounted
TO nothing more than the acceptance of q
large tract Of land coded to tho General
Government by single State. with GER
tain conditions attached 10 the cessIon, 80
that the prohibition of slavery in that Ter
ritory was the act of Virginia; Congress
having no authority of itself to prohibit
slavery anywhere; though 1t has an un-

the acceptance, as man may buy plot
