MOntalembert on CavOur.

Count De Montelambert is again before
the public in rather singular way. Count
Cavour, in his late great speech on Italy
and Europe, remarked that an llustrious
writer, "in lucid moment" demonstrated
to Europe that liberty had been very useful
in exalting the religious spirit; and De
Montelambert's friends assured him that he
was the Catholic writer intended. Where.
upon he addressed characteristic letter to
the correspondent. He says he would not
take the allusion if it had been merely
praise, but as it contains insult; bis modesty
cannot put up with it. The Count pitches
into Cavour with will. This will serve
to show the spirit of this letter:
Not one of your acts but wounds and revolts
me, and now you strike fresh blow on all
love. by masking your perverse designs under
the veil of q false accord between religion and
invoke mT testimony. owe it to myself to
protest that on no point am with you. Thank
God, your policy is not mine.
The Count sneers at Garibaldi and sides
with Lamorciere, and so forth, in a rich
and original way; but there is one graft
flying passage. He says
On our side, dare to say it, is conscience.
On your side, believe, it is success. Pied
mont dares everything, France permits every.
thing, Italy accepts everything, and Europe
undergoes everything. Your success, repeat
it, appears to me certain.
And hence, we Americans say, every.
thing appears to be coming out about
right.
The Count is jealous Catholic. He
thus speaks word for bis church.
But say, without hesitation, free church
In free state is my ideal. / add that in mod
ern society the church cannot be free except
where everybody is free. That, in my eyes,
is great blessing and great progress. In
any case it is fact. Let not anybody reproach
the church with not accepting all the liberties
granted by the State. In all countries she
accepts them, and, what is more, she makes
use of them-in England, as in the United
States, in Prussia as in Holland, everywhere,
in word, where she is not gagged nor impeded
by fetters specially invented for her.

The Vice Presidents Organ ON Sc.

From the Lexington IKy.l Statesman, organ of Vic =
President Ereckiuridge.
There is yet no just cause for revolution
or dissolution. The Union commands our
cordial allegiance; to it we shall be loyal
until it's basis, the Constitution has been
actually destroyed. Kentucky will not
surrender the Union. Our people are as
gallant and spirited defenders OF their rights,
and as little disposed to submit to wrong
and dishonor, as any men who tread the
soil of America. They will not permit
themselves to be degraded nor their rights
invaded; but they do not believe the time
has come for revolution, and will yet cling
to the Union with the devotion of the true
sons of '76.
10 our Southern friends we would ear.
nestly appeal to await the full develop
ment of Lincoln's policy before striking
the fatal blow to the Union. Kentucky is
border State, and, as such, the first anu
greatest sufferer by Abolition ascendency.
Our State is barrier of protection to the
Cotton States against anti-slavery aggres.
sions. Our friends in the South can GER
tainly bear the Administration of Lincoln
as long as we can. Then, let them heed the
voice of Kentucky, stand true to the Union,
and not exhaust all hope Of yet maintaining
the Constitution. The Democracy of Ken
lucky, those men who, in the support of
MIR. Breckinridge, have given earnest Of
their fidelity to the rights of the South,
will appeal to the South to give up what
ever movements are now in contemplation,
and, like patriots, uphold the Constitution
and the Union. Do this, and all may yet
be WE'LL

Missouri ELEcrIoN.--Although DOUGLAS
has carried Missouri by some four hundred
majority, yet its electoral vote may be cast
for BELL. Quite number of counties have
not made the return within the fifteen days
directed by law; and the Secretary of State,
who is BRECKENRIDGE man, has not sent
after them, as he is directed by law to do.
In this way DOUGLAS may be cheated out of
the electoral vote. Many bets have been
made on the State, and no honorable person
will seek to take advantage OF this techni-
cality. The fact is undisputed that DoUG.
LAS has received majority of the votes OF
the State, and all bets made against that
proposition have been lost.

Since this report, the Comptroller has made
a call ON the banks for additional securities,
which has been promptly responded to.
At Chicago, Oh Thursday last, the sale Of
exchange advanced to seven and eight per
cent, and in some cases, was sold as high
as ten per cent. The Democrat of the 22d,
says:
Messrs. Hall Brother, of Aurora. owners
of the Bank of Aurora, and National Bank OF
Illinois, and also of the Arctic Bank, and Hall
& Brothers Bank of Wisconsin, failed on Tues.
day morning to open their doors for the trans.
action of business. During Monday they sus-
tanned decided run. Being undoubtedly very
weak from the call for specie, which has for
the past two weeks been very heavy, they
could not have been able to comply with the
call from the Auditor. and being natural solic.
tous of retaining as many deposits as pos 81.
BILE, they closed their doors. This will finish
the banks in which they are interested. One
OF their depositors, who had almost $l2, 900
with them to his credit hearing that they had
a run, and that they closed their doors in con-
sequence, went to the Office of the Recorders
Clerk early on Tuesday morning to record two
judgment notes against them. To his conster.
nation he found that they (Hall & Brother) had
been there as early as A. NJ, and recorded
their assignment.
A despatch dated Boston, N November %,
says:
No serious results have yet attended the
financial pressure, and remittances from the
hottest part of the South continue to come in
as usual. The statements of fepudiation by
Southern creditors are untrue.
So far as this city is concerned, should the
emergency require it. the directors of all the
Boston banks propose to discount to the
amount of five million dollars, which will make
money easy in this city.
The Wheeling, (Va.) Washington, ID.
CO. Norfolk, Richmond and Petersburg,
and the Baltimore banks, suspended specie
payment on the 22d. The Charleston banks
are hard pressed, but refuse to suspend until
the New York banks do.

1t was rumored on the street today
bu, since denied, that Balls mills, in Yer

Montgomery declares that he intends

Large quantities of guns, revolvers,
cutlasses and other war implements have
been shipped to Kansas as food for the
suffering. They were sent from the east.
Unless the President sends out troops to
take and hang Montgomery and his men, we
may expect for many months a reign of

responsible parties, addressed to the proper
authorities, that Captain Montgomery had
a force OF probably five hundred men, with
plenty of arms, ammunition and other ma
terial aid, and from time to time warlike
supplies have been received by him from the
North.
The writer also says that the demand to
adjourn the land sale would be resorted to
as mere pretext for raising an armed force,
and that the real object of this lawless Or
ganization is raid, first, on the frontiers OF
Missouri, and then on Arkansas and the
Western border, to avenge the punishment
of Abolition emssaries.
Gov. Medary has recently communicated
some important particulars relative to
Captain Montgomery's reported alarming
movements. United States troops will be
forthwith ordered into Kansas at such
points as may be necessary for the protection
of the land Offices in the performance oi
their duty, as we'll as the public property

Men who would Vote Differently Now

Men who would Vote Differently Now.
A friend witnessed scene at the levee
the other day, which is significant, and in
dicates the experience of many farmers in
the Northwest, and especially of foreigners.
Several Norwegian farmers were endeavor-
ing to sell their wheat, which had been
hauled to St. Paul from considerable dis
tance. Fifty cents bushel seemed to them
a very--very small price, and elected con-
siderable grumbling. The grain buyer ex-
planned the reason-told them of the politi-
Cal troubles, and said they should not have
voted for LINCOLN, whose election had
caused the financial crisis, &c. EYES," said
the Norwegian, "that's just it. l was
told that if I voted for LINCOLN, that l
would get better price for my grain, and
now, that LINCOLN is elected, I have to sell
it for almost nothing.
We don't approve of the price Of wheat
affecting mans vote but the above shows
that certain arguments indulged in by reck.
less politicians, like curses, come home to
roost. That Norwegian will look below
the surface hereafter, in the matter of voting.
