Senator Douglas is making tour through
a part Of New England, his advent at the
principal towns and cities on the way be-
tween New York and Boston being attended
by enthusiastic demonstrations from his de-
voted followers He reached Boston Tues
day afternoon, and was conducted by great
crowd to the Revere House. In the evening
a serenading procession honored him with
its attendance-OliverS Stevens from the bal
cony introduced him to the crowd in front,
and welcomed Mr. Douglas to the spot where
Webster addressed them in 1850. Mr.. Doug
las said he was proud to speak g from the
same balcony in advocacy of the same prin-
ciples which the immortal Massachusetts,
statesman indicated as the crowning act of
his life" Mr. Douglas went over his stero-
typed phrases about non-interlerence and
popular sovereignty, and on the right Of all
people to have slavery if they want it.
The Republican party demand the possession of
the federal government in order that the power
may be welded for the prohibition Of slavery in
the Territories where the people want t. whilo
the Southern party demands the possession of the
federal government in order that the whole power
Of the government may be welded for the defense
Of slavery where the people don't want it. Gap

can never be reconciled until you recur to the de-
termination that Congress shall never interfere

Think Of man standing up in the chief
city Of Massachusetts, and asserting that the
Revolutionary sires Of those whom he was ad-
dressing, fought for the right of establishing
Slace institutions if they wanted to Mr..
Douglas said that for several years "the
whole time Of Congress has been employed
in the discussion Of the slavery question to
to the exclusion of important business al-
fecting the whole c5uutry.' Indeed and
who SO much as stephen \. Douglas is re-
sponsible for that? We think Douglas can
take the palm for impaIenca from all men

GREAT BRIrAIx-In the House Of Lords
on the 5th inst, the state of affairs IN Sicily
was debated, and the conduct Of Garibaldi
was eulogized In the highest terms by nearly
all the speakers. In the House of Commons
Lord John Russell said Her Majesty's Gov
ernment had demonstrated with the NeaPol-
itan Government against the repetition at
Messina or Naples of such atrocities as nao
been committed at Palermo. aud ne hao eve
ry reason to hope that their INCONSISTENCIES
would not be without due effect
On the subject of the San Juan question

been entirely satisfactory.
At the 4th of July banquet given IN Lon

city, 1Ir Dallas IN responding to the toast
of ''the day we celebrate" incidentally re-
ferred to the operations OF Garibaldl IN the
following terms :--"At this moment, IN
somewhat distant land, a spontaneous and
voluntary insurrectlon against oppression,
cruelty, and wrong has awakened wide
spread sympathy. He forebore making a
single comment upon that movement, but II
there was found among the champions OF
Sicily's rights and liberties wise, disinter-
ested, Just, and brave dellverer who connect
ed the heroism of the present hour with the
heroism they were commemorating-that
man was Garibaldi. Tremendous applause
and three cheers for Garibaldi followed
these remarks.)
Mr. Layard and DR.. Mackay were among
the speakers, and were eulogistic Of America
and American institutions.
NAPLES AND S1cuY.-No movement is re-
ported either in Sicily or on the mainland.
Naples was tranquil, and the Constitution
al party was described as more consolidated.
A telegram dated Naples, July 5th, an

Messina.

SHOCKING FATE OF \ LOST ChILD.-Thc
Newark Advertiser Of July 10Th furnishes
the following particulars Of the sad death oi
a young child in that vicinity:
"Several notices have recently been published
concerning child named Thomas Henry Finley,
aged 3 years, who disappeared July 9th, having
followed from home the band Of the Turner'S, who
held a pic mic that day. His dead body was found
on Saturday near the kossuth woods on the
Neck by Mr.William Stevens, who cunning.
The barking of his dog in a marsh having attract
ed his attention he went TO the spot and found the
body almost imbedded in mud. The child had ey-
identity followed the procession to the vicinity and
having started to return to his home on he hill,
over the meadows, had become fastened in the
mire, an perished from exposure aud hunger.
During the night of the 5th his cries were heard,
but nothing unusual was suspected, and no search
was undertaken. The eyes and nose of the unto =
tunate lad had been eaten away, probably by
muskrats, ana the body otherwise mutilated.
One thumb was found IN his mouth, showing that
in the agony OF starvation the lad had attempted
to relieve himself. lie had perhaps fingered IN
this horrible condition for two three days, un-
der broiling sun by day and exposed to cold by
nj ght, and finally perishing. The case Is ono of
the most affecting that has occurred for long
time Coroner Craven announced the sad intellI-
gencc to the bereaved parents, and tac scene that
followed was very touching"

The OLDEST PREACHER.-'' In the town OF
Berlin, Vt, adjoining Montpelier, lives the
Rev. James Hobart, who is, probably, the
oldest preacher in New England. lie Is now
about entering the 95th year of hIs age, and
the 10Th of his ministry and still he is
vigorous and active, preaching every Sunday
when and wherever he can engage himself.
Thirty years ago, his people, over whom he
had been the settled Congregational minister
since the settlement of the town, in about the
year 1870, dismissed him, suppOsing he would
not hold out much longer. Since then he has
preached in New Hampshire and Vermont,
on yearly, monthly and daily engagements.
He is a great pedestrian, making nothing of
walking half dozen miles to preach, and
home again the same day. Two or three
winters ago, he had received invitations to
preach ON given Sunday in three different
towns in a line from home, and, of course,
the places of worship were many miles apart.
But this did not discourage him He set out
on foot early in the morning of the appointed
Sunday, walked seven miles, preached a fore
noon sermon; and then walked five miles
more to the next town, preached an afternoon
sermon; and then walked on still five miles
to the third town, preached his third sermon.
\ few weeks ago, be had engaged to preach
in Montpelier; but, early in the morning.
his son came to town to say that his father
could not preach that day, as the afternoon
before he had fallen II feet from the top OF
an apple tree, which he had mounted to re
move some dead limbs.

of the Boston TraUeHer. Father Hobart

Hon. r. B. Rhett spoke at a Breckenridge
ratification meeting at Charleston, on the
9th inst. In bis speech he said that Ham
lin. the Republican candidate for tie vice
Presidency, is a mulatto. 50 TIE Northern
people take that man IN consequence Of that
peculiarity. l see it stated in the papers
that he is a mulatto. L can only say that
some state it as q reason why that'man Is ia
taken up, Is in consequence Of the spite and
malignity manifested towards him. But
they design 20 place over the South a man
who has negro blood in his veins. They pu,
a renegade Southerner or one side for Presi-

The dry weather is producing most sad
destruction Of herbage IN the vicinity of the
city. Many fields have been literally baked
by it, the grass being dead and yellow as last
years hay. The hay crop will be an utter
failure, and other crops are suffering badly.
Even the foliage of the trees in many places
is assuming a sere and yellow look Wind
without rain, continuously for many weeks
now, has wrought this havoc. Cattle are
being forced upon the market at any price,
farmers fearing they viii soon have neither
pasturage nor hay to keep them from starva-
ton. Yesterdays sky gave promise Of a
thunder storm, but most Of the rain passed

that Brigadier General Jackman has decided
to hold the Brigade Muster at Montpelier
for the reason that there are no grounds IN

than here. en.Jackman must have worn
