SOMETHING STRAEGE.-AmOng the
unfortunate fatboatmen wrecked
in the late terrible hurricane on
the Ohio were two brothers of the
name Of Gibbons, from Pittsburg.-
When the boat they we're on went
down, near Carrolltop, one of them
was rescued from drowning, but
the other, less fortunate, sank and
persisted beneath the waves. The
survivor, after waiting at Carroll
ton and searching in vain for sew
eral days for the body, returned to
his homo in Pittsburg. Saturday
night he dreamed that his brother
whose name was Daniel, came TO
his bedside and told him that his
dead body might be found buried
by the side of that of n relative
who persisted on the same day and
in like manner with himself. THE
relative was on another boat when
LOST The brother Immediately
started down the river, and on
reaching this city and calling on
the sexton Of Springdale Cemetery,
he found sure enough that bis

to us by Mr.. Gibbons himself, who
was in our Office to-day, and we
have no reason to question his YER

by the various marshals who have

all be answered readily and with pre-
cision. To some it may seem an IN.

meuts Of the Japanese Embassy is at
last announced. They were to leave
Washington on Tuesday, the 5tb inst,
remaining 10 Baltimore until the sue
ceeding day, then proceed to Pbila-
delphia, remaining there until the
18th. From Philadelphia they go to
Niagara Falls, thence to Boston, and
thence to New York. They are ex.
pected to arrive in the latter city
about the 10th instant, and will re-
main there until the steam frigate
Niagara is prepared to sail with

The JAPANESE EMBAssY.--Under
date of the 3Oth, the Washington
correspondent of The New York
Times writes
The Japanese Ministers to-day
declared their purpose not to visit
New York, or leave this city until
they start for home. The fact Of
their acceptance of an invitation
was explained to them, when they
replied that if they went they de-
sired TO stay at the Navy Yard or
go directly on board tho Niagara.
They have evidently become alarm
ed and suspicious. They do not be-
lieve the story of the accident to
the Niagara, and the current rumor
on the street is that there was no
accident, but that the ship started
under sealed orders, and, afterpro-
ceeding to a certain point, was di-
rected to return. Such was the
story Of parties in authority who
ought to know. The impression
now is that the Japanese will go
on board and leave for home. Pre-
sident Buchanan says that he is
heartily tired of them, and desires
TO get them of his hands. To. day
some OF the Japanese officers went
shopping, and purchased several
gold watches, halfa-dozen Yankee
clocks and q lot ofcoiIee mills, bring
ing back counterfeit money In
change. The watches were return
ed aud the money refunded.

p.paL RIGHTS IN NEw-xDnK.

The Archbishop of New-Y0Yk and tue 5affrsqsH
Bishops of tie Ecclesiastical Pfoyince Of Nsw-York,
numbering eight individuals have addressed 10 their
people very earnest and animated manifesto in
favor Of preserving the integrity Of the Pspal donn
ions in italy. The Archbishop and bis colleague,
say they particularly desire the privilege OF entering
the Holy City, both from the waters OF me AdrIauc
on the West and from the Mediterranean on the
East, over territory subject to the Poye alone.
Under favor, this is far-fetched argument for not
Welding any portion of the Papal kingdom 20 tho
control of the people who occupy it. Suppose these
gentlemen and their friends can 90 to Rome ever
and from the Mediterranean only, why viii not
that answer their purpose What is the necessity
Of reserying any portion OF the Adristic coast Tor
this purpose 1t certainly would not accOmmodate
pilgrims and strangers from this quarter. This
consideration against any surrender OF Papal terri
tory to the demand of European diplomacy, VIII
not. we think. weigh much with the new Congress,
should it ever assemble.
The general argument of the Archbishop and bis
associates is leyeled against all diminution what
ever of the Papa territory. The reasons ars
various, as may be seen from the foregoing sample.
But these reverend prelates deal in threats as well
They threaten England, and they threaten France:
the first with the Indignation and hostility OF num-
beers in this country, distahty limiting
rebellion. They threaten France with vengeance
of different character. They alude to the fact
that after the frat Napoleon seized on the Holy
Father, bis Empire crumbed and decayed. They
taunt the present Emperor with the recollection
that though bis cousin was crowned King of Rome,
yet he never regned.
In addition to arguments based on the general
idea of the legitimacy of the Papal rule, giving, as
they say, the Pope as good claim to his dominons
as any European sovereign has to his 1--WE think
Louis Napoleon might here have been hit again),
the Archbishop and Bishops deal in a style OF un-
equivoca denunciation. They do not hesitate to
style the parties to the reconstruction of Italy,
amaliciOus enemies of religion" Whether such q
mode of speech is best suited to those who have
controlling voice in the settlement of this disputed
boundary question, it is not for as to say. The
Archbishop is the reputed author Of this document,
and as he has lived long in this country and has
cultivated here the manly art of free speech it is
not surprising that this manifesto should be ex-
pressed with force and frsnkness. How much it
will advance the interests of the Pope, and whether
he will thank the ecclesiastic for writing it, is yet
to be seen. If it serves no other purpose, 1t at
least avouches his zeal in that Masters service

Cushing filled with the idea that his argument in

speech, in which he related his Cape Cod
