PRINCETON, Oct 10, IS60.-The political
aspect of New Jersey not only continues
BRIGHT but is continually growing brighter.
| The denomination of John L. Nixon, in the
first, and MIR. Stratton in the second congress
sional districts has given strength to the party,
for both of these gentlemen have large num-
Der of American friends, who will come IN a
body to vote the Lincoln electoral ticket. Inc
West Jersey Americans sympathize with III
ter Davis in Maryland, and Mayor Henry IN
Pennsylvania, in denouncing fusion win the
democracy The same inveterate hatreu
which the Bell party at the south cher
ish towards the democracy honestly per-
vades the better portion of the Americans
throughout the lower portion OF our STATE
Rely upon it, that where the republican ticket
in New Jersey contends against fusion tick
ct. we shall receive large accessions from the
pure men of the American party and again,
wherever Bell tickets are run, the democracy
are completely undOne for the want OF votes
they had unwisely calculated on.
The indications are that the lower counties
of the state will do nobly in November. MeY-
Ger county will do as well as she did
for Gov. Olden Darlington, an old str ing
hold, is douhly enthusiastic, and it is said will
Guido herself. Gloucester, Salem, and Cum
berland, are also considered more secure than
ever, on account of fortunate local nominal
tions. Gov Pennington's success, over which
cloud was recently attempted to be thrown
by fusion of the two wings of the democra-
cy has been put beyond reasonable doubt by
the action of the Bell men in refusing to coa-
lessee on the democratic nominee. Berthond,
in Abrams district, is a popular man, and
stands good chance for helping to increase
the republican representation from New Jer-
sey by two, for Riggs will have to stay at home
to make room for a republican from the third
district.

THE BooTH CASE IN WIsCoNsIN,-This
morning, about 81 O'Clock, Sherman M. Booth
arrived in this city, on the Lacrosse Railroad,
under escort OF two men, and was immediately
conducted to his apartments in the United
States custom house, from which he had been
so long absent. Mr., Booth attended wide
awake meeting at Berlin last night, in cOmpa-
ny with two ladies. Mr. Booth had not been
in town many minutes before it was on the
lips OF almost every one that "Booth has been
re.arreated !! Every body was surprised, and
looked astonished, but still there was no appa-
rent feeling OF excitement, some receiving the
news half incredulously, while Others whistled
a short breath, the same us to say, "Well,
what next ON the programme Z" When Mr..
Booth was taken at Berlin he had been at a
wide awake meeting, as we have stated at
which IchabOd Codding had been speaking,
AMI the martyr was coming away from the
meeting after it was over. We believe the
wide awakes were also coming away from the
meeting, with torchlights, &c. AT this mo-
mcnt Deputy United States Marshal Taylor
and farmer from the vicinity of Berlin, by
the name of L. M. Randall, who lett his
team in the village, and afterwards came
to Milwaukee, stepped up to Mr.. Booth,
I'D taking hold of him, declared him to be
their prisoner. He attempted to get hold of
his Implements of destruction, but was pre-
vented, and he also cried out, 'tFreemen to
the rescue !" but was hushed up and got out
the way, before scarcely any were made aware
of what was transporting. Booth was armed
with revolver and bowie knife, and made
the most desperate resistance. They arrived
at the depot about 10 o'clock. and found, on
reaching there that the cars were just about
to start for Milwaukee. On removing Sher-
man from the buggy to the sleeping car, he re.
fused to walk at all, and would lie down and
be dragged along. Some one at the depot,
feeling sympathy for him, no matter who he
was, indignantly inquired of the officer and his
companion what they We're hauling man
about in that manner for 2" Sherman told him
that "tley were kidnapping him" But the
men bearing him OIL hushed him up, and get.
ting him into the sleeping car, the train sped
away with unusual alacrity and, about half
past five this morning, lie was conducted to
the custom house.

Street ARRAY in PHILADELPHIA,

PHLADELrnIA, Oct. 12.-Quite scene
occurred this morning at the Gomez OF Third
and Walnut streets, between Mr.. Prcsbury,
the proprietor of the Girard House, and James
Edwards, one of the owners of that property.
The lie passed between them, when Edwards
struck Presbury on the face with a cane, draw
ing blood Presbury drew pistol and fired
two shots, neither of which took effect, except
on the foot of a bystander Edwards then
struck Presbury with his fist, when the parties
were separated and Presbury arrested. The
difficulty grows out of a litigation, relative to
the Girard House property, betw cen the broth
erS George and James Edwards, which may
result in the retirement of the present proprie-
tors of the Girard House to Nashville, where
they propose opening new hotel. The trus
tees Of the City Gas Works are manitesIing
opposition to the Improvement in the manuiac-
ture OF gas, by cutting off the connection at
the Girard House, and refusing the supply
from the City Works, unless the proprietors
stop making water gas, with which a portion
OF the hotel has been supplied for months past.

purposes. Upon the summit Of that political
pyramid which was raised by patriots and
Statesmen, and for which we demand the ad
miration Of the world, there sits a traitor
a being who, II his acts are indicative of his
intentions, would willingly rive that pyrs-
mid to fragments, and scatter far and wide
its dishonored ruins.
So unaccustomed are we to think of
treachery at the head of the government of
the people, that we have no standard by
which il may be measured. The mind does
notreadily take in the whole of its enormity.
The word traitor has been so often used in
party senses, that it is inadequate to de-
scribe the crime of him who, entrusted with
the most sacred post in the governmental
ediice, takes advantage of his position the
more effectually to apply the torch of the
incendiary. This difficulty, however, is but
temporary. Time will enable all of us to
arrive at just conception of events and
their bearings; and the people of the United
States will not fail to do the most ample
justice to the memory of our first Presiden-
tial traitor
