The Attempted DouEius-BeI Fusion

The Attempted DOugluH-Bell Fusion.
The seandalous attempt 10 unite the Bell
and Douglas parties, for the purpose Of pre-
venting an election of President by the peo-
pie, and in the hope that the highest Office in
thenation may be made the object of barter
and sale in Congress, the Boston Traveller
says with truth, does not work we'll There
are supporters of Mr.. Bell itpungently adds,
"who refuse to countenance it, and there are
supporters of Mr.. Douglas who are equally
obstinate in their attachment to principles.
It is the work of few disappointed leaders,
and should not be allowed to reflect on the
masses OF either party, who are honest men
and who wish well to their country. The
more this foul intrigue is examined, the more
knavish does it appear. The supporters of
Mr.. Douglas are composed principally of old
democrats, and the supporters OF Mr.. Bell are
composed in the ike proportion of cid wings.
The one party is full of Irishmen, and the
other of men who think that Irishmen ought
not to be allowed to vote in the United
States. The Douglas party is essentially a
ROmish party, and is supported by all the in
huence and power of the Church of Rome in
America, which are great. The Bell party is
essentially anti-Romish in the Northern
States, many of its members justly belisv-
ing that Rome has too much strength in this
country already, and ought firmly to be op-
posed The Douglas party supports "pOpu-
lar sovereignty while the Bell party pro-
teSses to be opposed to that new-fangled doc
trine, which has bsen denounced by men so
eminent as Mr.. Bell, Mr. Everett, Mr.. Fill
more, and Mr.. Crittenden. Mr.. Douglas
prides himself on having led the way in the
work of repeating the Missouri Compromise;
but the Bell leaders have condemned that
work in decisive language, and have never
recanted their condemnation of it. How can
a coalition Of such men be effected2 The
success Of such an undertaking would prove
that political prOhigacy had reached to its
utmost possible height in this country at a
very early period Of its career, and that the
people had become rotten before they had
ripened. But the evidences are daily multi
plying that the vigorous common sense of the
people revolts at the attempt of political huck-
stsrs to buy and sell them, and that the only
effect of the movement that has been made
will be to increase the Republican vote to
immense proportions. And so will fusion
end, in the grave of the fusionists."

Honduras, which is the scene of Walkers
new ilibustering expedition, the Albany
Journal says was the first part of the Ameri-
can Contenent discovered by Columbus. 1t
is about as large as the State of New York,
and has about as many inhabitants as Con-
necticat. 1t has the greatest diversity Of sur
face and elevation, broad plains, fertile val
leys, clusters and ranges of volcanic noun
tains, many of them terraced to their sum-
mits, affording almost every variety ofclimate,
soil and products. Its commerce grows mainly
out Of its exports of mahogany and other
woods, gums, resins, &C., to the value of per
haps a million and a half of dollars per
annum.
Cortes took possession of Honduras in
1854, and founded what is now its chief
town, Truxillo. It remained Spanish prov
ince until the revolution in 1921, since
which time it has been alternately State of
the Guatemalan Confederacy and an indepen-
dent Republic. Like all the Central American
Republics, it has frequently been the scene
of civil wars, and one is now ranging between
President in, and a General out of power,
thus afording an opportunity Of interference
TO Walker, who sides with the latter.

Rr-Gor. Ford-.Judre BrlnI.orhon.

Ex-Lieut. Gov Ford made an able speech
at Mansfield the evening of the 9Th, in refer
ence to the effort that is being made to de-
feat Judge BrinkerhOf, bya coalition of the
Democrats and Americans. He said he had
heard but two reasons for this, viz: that
Brinkerhoff should be beld responsible for the
rejection of Judge Swan in 1859. This de-
termination arose either from misinformation
or pure cussedness. It was needless to in
quire which. BE himself was q member of
the State Convention, and with FIVE of the
six delegates from Richland county, he voted
for Swans denomination.
From his own personal knowledge the at
tempt to hold Brinkerhof responsible was
grossly unjust, and no man knows this better
than Judge Swan himself. No doubt he
would cheerfully bear testimony to this eff
feet. From his own personal knowledge, al
so, Judge Brinkerhof urged the Richland
delegates to cast their votes for Swan 5 re-
nomination. Five Of six voted for Swan and
among them was Roelife BrinkerhOf, a near
relative Of the Judge Judge B. has always
entertained towards Judge Swan the highest
respect for his judicial integrity and ability,
and feelings Of warm personal friendship.

SPURIOUS AMERICAN WATCHES.
We are credibly informed that some Of the jewellers
Of Cleveland and other places are selling counterfeit
American Watches, for the genuine article, manu-
factured at Waltham, Mass, and particularly for
eign imitation of our watch, named P s. Barley
which is represented to be manufactured in Hartford,
Conn. It may be Of service to the public to be in
formed that there Is no mandatory of watches in
that place The genuine article Of one grade Of our
watches is named P. 5 BARTLETT, WALTHAM, Mass,
and all our watches of avery grade are marked
''FaHhani, Mas"
1t is hardly necessary to state that such watches
are like ours in FORM only, and are made upon the
same old system that has already flooded the country
with watches that are not only vexatiOus and
slant source Of expense but really useless to the
owners and when bought for genuine are calculated
to injure the high reputation which our watches
have attained. We therefore caution the public
against buying our watches from any person who
cannot furnish certificate Of commences for every
watch offered for sale, bearing the number Of the
watch and the signature of the Treasurer Of the
Company, R. Z. Robbins We also beg to inform
those who deal in the spurious article, that legal
proceedings will bo instituted against them, upon
any well authenticated instance Of their selling q

On Erie's fair bosom in fancifll pride,

Till the nag Of Columbia her Perry unfurled,
The boast Of the West and the pride OF the world.
In the snug little harbor Of fam'd Put-in-Bay,
COlumbia's small feet securely did lay;
Each man at his post, awaiting the dawn,
All anxious the fray 70 commence in the morn.
As soon as the dawning of day did appear,
From the snug little harbOr bold Perry did steer,
When the enemy opened with fire most raking,
Expecting bold Perry they soon would be taking.
But the spirit Of Lawrence his influence shed,
Don't give up the Ship when dying he said (;
Though death hover round us and great numbers
we'lldie bravely my lads or wen conquer our foes.
The Lawrence disabled, with chosen brave few,
Perry went 70 the Niagara, the fight 10 renew;
The wind springing up then, be sailed through the
And the cross Of proud England lay soon his feet
While they played yankee Doodle, and the stars
Six ships ofthe British our tars did subdue;
They fought for their kountry, and were bound to
The freedom of trade and our right to the main.
Thus ever, when foes, no matter from whence,
Assail Us, more Perry viii drive them rom hence
From the fields and the workshops Of the free and

Millions oftreemen will rise, our country to save
