held a meeting at Jersey City yesterday P.

The Committee recommended that the cleo
toral ticket he composed Of four Douglas and
three Breckenridge men, to be supported by
the friends of each candidate, and respectively
headed Douglas Ticket and Breckenridge

ing the majority is to receive the electoral
vote of the State, except in case the whole
vote will elect either candidate, when he is
to have it. This plan appears to meet the
views OF the most influential Democrats Of

From Washington.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-F. W. Williams,
Secretary of Legation TO China, arrived here
direct from the Emperor, bearing the rati-
fed treaty with this government, and an
autograph letter from his Highness to the
President of the United States and present
ed both of these documents to the Depart
ment of State to-day. He brings no politi-
cal news of Importance. hN'
The aspect of affairs was not altogether
encouraging. Considerable depression pre-
vailed in commercial and other circles, grow
ing out of the troubles with England and
France.
No practical progress, whatever, has been
made toward the settlement of the San Juan
affair. Both governments still insist upon a
perfect title, and neither is likely to surren-
der. An arbitration to some neutral and
friendly power was suggested months ago,
but was not pressed owing to other engage
ments of the Administration.
Messrs. Russell, Majors & Co. had made no
proposition to carry the entire California
mail, ria Salt Lake. as alleged. They enter
tanned such an idea, but after Mr.. Russell
made a personal investigation of the bulk oi

abandoned the enterprise as impracticable

SING SING, July 3.--At four o'clock this
morning a fire was discovered in the Cabinet
Workshop of Charles H. Woodruff, in the
Prison. The engines were brought into re-
QUESTION, but, before the flames were checked,
the entire building was in ruins. The boot
and shoe-shop was with difficulty saved.
The loss to G.. H Woodruff is 100000 in
sured for $4,000 in twenty different Com
panies in New York. The loss to the State
is $4,000 no insurance.
Messrs. Smith sustained loss, by water, of
l5,O0O insured in the Atlantic Astor and
Commercial Companies of New York.
This is the third time Mr.. Woodruff has
been burnt out since 1854. The weather was
calm, or the entire prison would have been

are none now who propose to pluck out
their eyes for this, although a direct scrip
tural injunction may be found to that end.
Our correspondent admits that music may
rouse men to deeds Of bloodshed Is there
any worse passion than that for war and
bloodshed2 Music is regarded as potent
stimulus of this. The ancients pictured itas
the most hateful of passions, and most dire in
its effects. There is tendency in modern
times to take one OF the most amiable of the
ancient goddesses and make her the symbol
of theworstl passions of the human heart
but this has not changed eternal justice, and
war must always be regarded as the most
evil passion of the human heart.
Music is the chief incentive to dancing
The question was seriously asked in the late
Methodist General Conference, by delegates
from this city, whether dancing should not
becondemneda as an exciting cause of violat-
ing the Seventh Commandment. Christian
charity compels US to believe that this ques-
ton was not wantonly raised, but that devout
persons had found themselves subject to such
influences from dancing. Let not the strong
brethren despise the weak for this, but rather
say, like Paul, if dancing causeth my brother
thus TO offend, he should dance no more while
the world stands.
Every thing beautiful and desirable can be
made subseryient to lawless passions. They
who would avoid contact with any thing
subject TO abuse, should be put in cast-iron
cell as soon as possible, and under regimen
ofdaily faggellation that would draw all the
vital heat in them to the surface.

The Wnvgoucr Case.

Our readers will remember the account we
gave a short time since Of the negro Waggoner,
who was kidnapped in Ohio aud sold into slave
" at Alexandria, Ky. II seem that quarrel
recently sprung up between the scoundrels Gu
gagged in this iuhuman transaction, which devel-
opes the fact that the scheme was to purchase
the negro for mere trne. then to dispose OF
him at full price, and the two divide the pile.
But there was such an excitement raised immc-
dately after the pretended purchase, that they
were compelled to bring the negro back to New
port for another trial; which will probably free
him. But what will be done with the rascals
Foster and Heinz They will unquestonaby
60 scott free in Kentucky but they deserve
stringng up tar more richly than the horse
thieves on the frontiers. The cursed laws which
govern the institution of slavery is the cause OF
all this--the thing which Brockinridge and
Douglas say has right TO enter the territories
and usurp the rights of free men,
