hail storm, whilst coming down Cranberry
Summit the evening previous. The hail
ratified down upon the car tops like new

such immense quantities as to nearly OBJ

There was also heavy hail storm on
Thursday on the National road west, and
it was with difficulty that horses caught
upon the road were kept from running
away. The horses attached to an omnibus
coming east, became frightened aud tried
to run away, the windows of the bus were
broken, the passengers jumped out to be
pelted, and the greatest alarm was occa-
stoned.

WASHINGTON, June S.-Two officers Of
the Treasury Department spent several
hours with the Japanese on the subject of
currency, the object being to obtain all
possible information with a view to the
regulation of commercial transactions, but
nothing definite as yet has been accom-
plished. IL appears that the Japanese
have much knowledge of refining silver
and brass metals, but not of gold, and it
is thought long time must elapse before
a satisfactory understanding can he ar
rived ut in relation to the value of the
latter.

Another Triumph for Free Speech.
C.M. Clay at Richmond, Ky.

Another Triumph for Free Speech
c. nj. Clay at Richmond, KY.
Cassius n. Clay won another victory for
free speech, and struck a good blow in
behalf of Republicanism at Richmond, Ky,
the county seat of Madison county, on the
4th inst. This WAS the day of the OPEN
ing of the County Court, and large num-
her of people were of course present from
the surrounding country.
MIR. Clay had publicly announced
through both the papers issued at Rich
mond, that he intended to speak on this
occasion, and the subject was much can
vassed in the streets. The more violent
portion of the Revolutionary Committee.
we learn, we're for silencing him
At one o'clock, P. A., the large Court
House was packed to its utmost capacity.
Mr.. Clay took up the Republican platform
and read it, making no nllusiOn to the
mob, but going on to vindicate the Princi-
pies laid down in that platform Finding
him prudent enough to avoid any mention
of the mob, one of the most violent of
them declared that Mr.. Clay should be
..sGof through the htud." Mr.. c. said he
claimed the same equal rights as were all
lowed other parties, and that he would
.ssTAxD or FALL THERE T. The clamOr
against him continued, but the great mass
cried, ''go on"
Mr.. Clay then said: "Gentlemen, see
what You are after. If nothing but fight
will do you, we are ready for you. NC'O
try it. Shall speak, citizens, or not 2"
.sYcs, yes, go on" was the response from
the great minority of the crowd. dozen
voices cried ont, "No, no." To which Mr.
C. replied, Then % out, [great applause
s'if you don't want to heart" And they
went out, completely foiied in their feeble
att .mpts at assassination
Mr. Clay made strong speech, which
told with great effect upon his large audi
ence. Many Union men, we are told, de-
clarcd for Lincoln that day. Our Repub-
lican friends there are in good spirits
They say the cnuse is progressing, and
that the time Is not far distant when Ken
lucky will not only tolerate free speech,
but will also range herself on the right
side.

Gentlemen Your official communica-
ton of the 18th inst, informing me that
the representatives of the Republican par
ty of the United States assembled Mt Chi
cngo. on that day, had, by unanimous vote
selected me as their candidate for the Of
Acc of Vice President of the United States,
has been received, together with the rcsO-
lntions adopted by the Convention as its
declaration of principles. Those resOlu-
tions enunciatG clearly and forcibly the
principles which unite US and the objects
proposed to be accomplished; they address
themselves to all and there is neither ne
cessity nor propriety in my entiriug upon
discussion of them: they have the appro-
val of my judgement and any action of
mine will DC faithfully and cordially sus-
tanned. nn profoundly grateful to those
with whom it is my pride and pleasure,
politically to operate, for the nomination
so Unexpectedly conferred, and desire to
tender, through you, to the members of
the Convention my sincere thanks for the
confidence thus rcposed in me- Shonld
the nomination which l now accept, be
ratified by the people and the duties de-
volve upon me of presiding over the SEN
ate of tho United States, it will be my
earnest endcavor faithfully to discharge
them with just regard for the rights of all.
1t is to be observed in connection with
the do;ngs of the Republican Convention,
that paramount object with US is to
preserve the normal condition of our Ter
rttorinl domain as homes for freemen.-
The able advocate and defender of Re-
publican principles, whom you have nom
mated for the highest place that can graft
fy the ambition of man, comes from n
State which has been made what it is by
special action in that respect of good
and wise men who founded our institu-
lions. The rights of free labor have there
been vindicated and maintained The
thrift and enterprise which so distinguish
ed Illinois, one Of the most flourishing
States of the glorious West, we would see
secured to all the Territories OF the Union,
and restore peace and harmony to the
whole country by bringing back the gov
crnment 10 what it was under the wise
and patriotic men who created it. The
Republicans shnll succeed in that object
as they hope to. They will be held in
grateful remembrance by the busy and
teCming millions of future ages.
am, very truly, yours, H. HAMLIS.

BALTIMORE, June s.-The japanese Em-

cession was very fine. The ambassadors
rode in open carriages, each attended by a
member of the naval commission. They
observed great reserve, seeming TO notice
nobody, the subordinates, however, mani
tested the greatest interest at the scene,
acknowledging and returning the salutH-
with the greatest enthusiasm, some even
taking off their quaint hats and raising
them in the true American style, to the
ladies. On their arrival at the Gilmore
House, in Monument Square, the whole
procession was reviewed by the Embassy
from the portico.
