Extraordinary StOrm-MarveIOus Escape
from Lightning.

During recent Storm the lightning
struck the northwest corner of the NJ. e.
Church at Bloomfield, N. j., and ran down
the gutter. The ladies of the church were
holding an ice cream and strawberry festival
in tents, on vacant space adjoining the
church, and one of them was erected i'm
mediately adjacent TO the building. AS the
water from the gutter ran against the tent,
constable Joseph Osborn took hold of the
gutter TO alter its direction, just at the
moment that the electric fluid struck it.
The lightning went into the top of his
shoulder, passed down his left arm and leg,
and out of his foot to the ground. The skin
was torn off, and a round hole, about the
size of small bullet, was left in the bottom
of the foot. His leg was completely black
ened. His clothing was nearly all torn off,
and he was of course, rendered insensible.
Mr.. Osborn was taken home, and will pro-
badly recover. His escape from death is
| most remarkable.
Samuel Carl, who was about assisting Mr..
Osborn in fixing the gutter, but had not
| touched it, was burnt on the arm and stunned
Most of the persons present were stunned
and some Of them knocked down, but only
Mr.. Osborn received serious injury. Several
ladies became frightened and ran home
| through the drenching rain. The noise o.
| the explosion resembled that of a loud cannon
the whole vicinity was brilliantly illumi
mated, and smell of sulphur was left behind
The rain and the accident of course, made
summary end of the festival

CLEVELAND has lion. The papers of that
quiet village are making the most of it. 1t
is an Octoroon, young girl, the daughter of
Mississippi planter, but born slave-a sin
gular coincidence. Her father purchased a
house for her in a fashionable quarter of
Cleveland, provided her with servants, and
engaged the daughter of clergyman there
to superintend her education. The girl is
described in the papers as about eleven,
bright, intelligent, with long black curls, a
complexion not yellow or brown, but COM
bination of pure black and white, (?) quick
to learn, and of tractable, simple DISPOSE
ton. Her establishment consists of five
servants from her fathers household an
"eminently respectable man servant who al
ways accompanies her in her walks, house
keeper, cook, and two maids. The house
purchased for her. cost $1,000, and she has
800 900 invested in her name in Cincinnati
property. These particulars we gather
from the Cleveland papers, whose elegant
leisure has enabled them to devote them
selves to this subject.

Reception of the News of Douglas's Nom-
ination In Washington.

Continuation Of his Speech from rfr@ rage
Does not this line of policy look to dis
union2 [Cries of "Yes."1 Intelligent men
must be presumed to understand the tendency
and consequence of their own actions. Can
the Seceders fail to perceive that their efforts
to divide and defeat the Democratic party, If
successful, must lead directly TO the cession
of the Southern States2 | trust that they
will see what must be the result Of such a
policy, and return to the organization and
platform of the party before ii is too late to
save the country. [Applause.]
The Union must be preserved. lCheers: J
The Constitution must be maintained invi-
olate, [renewed cheeringl and it is our mis-
sion under Divine Providence, as | believe,
to save the Constitution and the Union from
the assaults of Northern Abolitionists and
Southern dsunionists. Enthusiastic ap-
plause and three cheers for Douglas.l My
friends have detained you too long, and will

ST.. JOSEPH, June 25.--The Pony Express,
with dates from Carson Valley TO June .,
arrived here to-day.
II was thought that the Indian war would
soon be over as the force now in the held
will be able to subdue them, and reduce them
TO control or drive them beyond the limits
where mining explorations are to be carried
on.
Major Dodge, Indian Agent for Western
Utah arrived in Carson Valley on the 9Th
inst, from Washington, where he had been
to confer with the Government as to the
future management of the Indians in THIS
section. He left yesterday for the scene Of
hostilities at Pyramid Lake. IL was the
GENERAL opinion that the savages will have to
be punished severely in order to bring them
to terms -, -,
II was feared that they will not stand a
fight but retreat to the mountains, thus de-
LAYING the final issue, and probably leading
to protracted war.
A messenger had arrived from the army
reporting that the Indians had fled without
an engagement.
Col. Landers road expedition had arrived
| in Honey Lake Valley, and would I'M
mediately proceed to the seat Of war

MR. BATES, in his letter announcing that
he will give Mr.. Lincoln cordial support
states what he supposes to be the opinions of
Mr.. Lincoln on slavery, among which is the
following;
Congress has supreme legislative power
over all the Territories, and may, at its dis
cretion, allow or forbid the existence Of
slavery within them"
The right to "allow" slavery is of course,
the right to do it affirmatively; that is, the
right to establish slavery in the Territories.
The right to allow slavery in the Territories
is ultimately the right to make slaves of
free men. If the negro has an inherent right
to be free he can not be divested of the right,
no matter how long or through how many
generations his freedom has been withheld
from him; and Congress has just the same
right to legislate him into slavery that it has
to legisate that he shall be held in slavery
in the Territories.
The Chicago Convention resolved that all
men are created equal and are endowed with
inalienable rights, among which is liberty;
but according to Mr.. Bates, Mr.. Lincoln holds
that Congress may "allow," that is authorize
mon to be deprived of this equality and this
inalienable right, in the Territories If Con-
gross may allow or grant right, it is, oi
course, its duty to protect it. Either Mr.
Bates fails to comprehend the platform thai
Mr.. Lincoln has subscribed to, or the Repub
lican party has become converted to the tru'
faith, that the inalienable rights of the negro
are the right to that condition which th'
superior race sees fit to assign to him.

THE fact is generally acknowledged
throughout the United States that Cincin-
natl has the finest Opera-house in America,
and the highest taste in art music and the
drama, and that there is no place where the
unclean animal, forbidden by Moses, but
which forms the principal feature of the
Christian Dispensation, can be knocked on
the head, stuck, scalded, scraped and disem-
bowelled in so brief space of time as in this
city. In addition to these excelences, Of
which we are justly proud, and which have
greatly excited the envy of Eastern cities, 1t
must now be conceded that Cincinnati has
the most capacious private residence in Amer
lea, if not in the world, and the most exten-
sive facilities for private hospitality.
We see IL stated in the Enquirer, paper
which is distinguished for the correctness
and exactness of its political statements and
estimates, that on Saturday night, in conse-
quence of the nomination Of Douglas at
least ten thousand persons assembled in front
of the Enquirer building" and after various
eloquent speeches, "the crowd and the band
started for other parts of the city, received
everywhere with the greatest enthusiasm y
"Ten thousand men shouted themselves
hoarse over the nomination. When they
reached the residence of Mr.. Charles Rule
the Enquirer says, "the crowd was invited in
partook of refreshments, and at three o'clocl
in the morning left with prolonged cheers foI
Douglas and the delegate from the Firs
Ward"
1t must be admitted that private residenc
which will receive ten thousand persons i
what can not be found in any other city il
America and private domestic facilitie
which, without warning, after midnight cal
provide refreshments for ten thousand Dem
ocrats, may be truly called metropolitan.
When we consider how good digestio
waits on Democratic appetite, and how tn
huidsof the system must have been exhauste
when ten thousand Democrats shouted them
selves hoarse on warm summers night, W
must see that this provision of refreshment
in private residence, near three o'clock i
the morning, throws the miracle of the loavC
and fishes quite in the shade, for that was
small multitude of only five thousand.

ST.. LOUIS, June 25.-River stationary,
with about fifteen feet to Cairo.
The packet Ben. Lewis, which exploded
near Cairo this morning, was built three
years since for the Missouri River trade, but
has been running between here and Mem

sidered by competent judges to. be the
heaviest OF any boat coming to this port,
they being built of three-eighth iron, and
unusually solid and well made in every re-
spect.

one of the wealthiest of the old Californians,
or rather Mexican citizens of California, for
he was born in Guadalajara. He went to
Monterey about forty years ago, a poor man,
and worked for long time at his trade OF
wagon-making. In the course of time he
succeeded in getting possession Of fine
ranches and great herds of cattle, which he
sold at immense profits in l849 and 1860.
