Hon. John j. Crittenden.

The venerable Kentucky Statesman,
in closing his speech at Nashville on the
25th September, drew the following
picture of Dissolution of the Union: :,
The poor man would be taken from his
cot and forced into the army, or with
a soldier billetted on him, would be forced
to suffer insult to himself, and perhaps
dishonor to his. home. The respect of
the world would be lost--our flag dis
graced, and the glorious title ofan Amer
lean citizen would be no protection
abroad. On the contrary, the ships of
the once respected sand feared republic
would skulk in out of the way bays and
rivers and harbors, and fear to meet
foreign flag upon the open sea. She
would be seeking salty in secluded by
ways! Falsify this. you who are of peo-
pie who have beca, and who are so great!
The child is now dwelling in some of
your homes who will live to see one hun
dred millions of free men in this great
valley Of the Mississippi. know may
not hope, but would to heaven might
behold that number of freemen obeying
the mandates of this great Republic, and
ieasting on the blessings of liberty. The
time is so near, that with little straining
of the eye, ! think can behold the full
ness of the land, all free, and all living in
harmony and love! What spectacle!-
Fit for the witnessing of heaven and
earth! Shall we preserve this power for
those millions-this power greater than
the Caesars? Yes, let us do our duty and
preserve for the future and for all time
the rich inheritance of an undivided and
free country.
In regard to the charge of Abolition
against Mr.. Bell, Mr.. Crittenden said:
They charge Mr.. Bell with being an
abolitionist. | smile at the charge, be-
cause ! know that those who make it do
not believe it. ] pass it by. would not
dignity it by a refutation. l would not
crafty those who make it by an argument
about it. They sometimes say that am
an abolitionist. They have made that
charge against me. pass it by as the
idle wind. When Mr.. Bell is convicted
on that charge most of you will begin to
feel for your own safety on the same
charge. There is Mr.. Bell, you know him.
And there is Mr.. Everett associated with
him, and you know him. They are too
high for commonplace fattery, and if
they were not, am too high to bestow
it. There they stand with their illus
trious record, running back for thirty
years in the public service, without spot
or blemish.

pay- A correspondent of the Richmond

rsS~ A correspondent of the Richmond
Wig, writing from Christianburg Va,
Sept. 18th, says that in a public speech
delivered there, the Hon. Roger A. Pryor
clearly and distinctly admitted that if it
could be shown to his satisfaction that
John Bell could beat Lincoln, he would
cheerfully vote for him, and in the whole
course of his speech, he said not one word
against Bell, but or the contrary, he ac-
knowledged that Mr.. Bell was sound up.
on the great issues which were made
against Mr.. Douglas.

WoN'T BELIEVE TuEM.-Thc Richmond
Wing says it is very hard on the Breck-
inridge orators and newspapers that the
people won't believe a word they say
against Mr.. Bell. They foam and rage
and howl and denounce, but all in vain.
Mr.. Bell goes on from hundreds to thou
sands. They assume that he is ireesoil-
er, but nobody hceds them. They as
sumo that he is willing TO have slavery
abolished in the District of Columbia,
but every boy Of ten years of age under
stands that he never did and never would
support such proposition. lie voted
against the bill of 1850 to abolish the
slave trade in the District, and never did,
upon any occasion, go for abolishing
Slavery there or anywhere else.

VILLAINY ON THE MOBILE AND ONO RAIL.
RoAD.-The Mobile Tribune of the 2lst, re-
cords the following: .....
Yesterday evening, as the freight train
No. 2 went up the road, when some few
miles above Whistler, they came in con-
tact with a strap" which was evidently
set for the Mississippi passenger train
1t was log placed on the track in such
a position as to throw the down train off.
Fortunately the up freight train No.
struck it first, and no damage was done,
except the breaking of q water pipe. The
train then returned to Whistler. The
passenger train from Mississippi came in
at the regular time.

Az EXTRAORDINARY PLoT.-A letter from
Trieste, in the London Morning Star, gives
an account of an extraordinary attempt
on the part Of the second captain of the
Austrian man-of-war Kaiser to blow up
the vessel, with every soul on board, the
whole of the ships lying in the neighbor-
hood, the yacht Of the Archduke Maxi
imilian and all his company, together with
the greater part of the town Of Trieste
This Austro,ltalian Guy Faux was discov-
cred at the critical moment, and blew out
his brains.

A PALrADLE IIIT.-The National Intel
ligencer says:-"The same fastidous gem
tlemen who are now arraigning Mr.. Bell
for the observations he offered on the bill
providing for the suppression of tho slave
trade in the District of Columbia, (but
against which he voted from considera-
tions of public duty, inspired by regard
for the sensibilities of the South, find it
convenient to forget that in the year 1862
they zealously supported for the Vice
Presidency of the United States, distin-
guished Democrat who had held langu-
age on this topic such as would have been
likcned TO misprison of treason in any
body but Democrat. We nllude to the
Hon. VIM. r. King, of Ala, who, in the
debate on the Compromise measures of
1850, zealously advocated the passage of
the bill prohibiting the slave tadc in this
District"
The truth is, those who charge Mr.. Bell
with even the slightest unsoundness on
the slavery question, know better, or else
they are pitiable ignoramuses-that's all.

No CnANcE.-The cry of mo chance"
in 1856, says the North Carolina "Argus,"
was raised when it was seen that Mr.. Fill
more could not be elected, and the re-
suit was, that thousands of old Wings
and Americans deserted the standard of
Fillmore, and voted for Mr.. Buchanan,
in order to defeat Fremont. They did
not vote for Buchanan for any love they
entertained for the old gentleman, but
q to defeat Black Republicans. Patriotism,
coupled with the old adage that zone
good turn deserves another" require
that Mr.. Buchanan and his friends should
drop Mr.. Breckinridge, who has "No
CHANCE" whatever for success, and
vote for Bell, who stands the ONLY
CHANCE of defeating Lincoln.

gaSn The Boston Advertiser says that
an officer was dismissed from the Custom
House in that city lately who was an old
faithful officer and soldier of the war of
1872. His salary was not large, not moro
than he required. Yet on the 3lst of
August he was assessed $50 for party pur-
poses. Aware that if he refused he
would be decapitated, of course, and
wishing to retain his position, he paid up
promptly. On the first of September he
received his dismissal. Having got out
of him all that it was possible to obtain,
he was turned adrlft, and tho very next
Jay at that. Rather unkind to say the
least of it.
