The News from syria.

The latest intelligence from Syria indicates
a slight display of energy on the part Of the
Turkish Government at the last moment
The Governor General of Damascus has been
deprived of his Office, and sent away for trial
The Governor General of Beirut has been
placed under arrest. A correspondent Of the
London Times says that the sun never shone
upon more awful scene than the Christian
quarters of Damascus presented on the 10th
OF July. On that day alone from one thou
sand to twelve hundred Christians persisted.
The wells were fun Of the bodies ofChrstians
thrown down by the Druses and their allies
the Turkish soldiers. In many cases houses,
the cellars of which were filed with fugitive
Christians, were burnt down, by which large
numbers perished miserably.
Many Of the Christian women and children
had been made prisoners by the wild Arab
tribes, and carried of into the Desert. The
agitation was spreading to other places and
fears were expressed of trouble at Jerusalem,
where there was qEIIs---I.- ..Jie sccit5-
ment The Moslems, according to a CORES
pondentIof the London Times, bodily declare,
"that if single party of European soldiers
are landed on the coast, not Christian shall
be left alive throughout the length and
breadth Of the land"

What They Do in Lowell.

In Lowell there are twelve corporations,
with an aggregate capital of 81 Z, 900, O0O, own
ing fAy-tEo factory buildings containing
over four hundred thousand spindles and
twelve thousand looms, with other machinery
in proportion, employing eighty-seven hun
dred women and forty-two hundred men
manufacturing yearly more than one hundred
million yards of cotton cloth, twenty-five
million yards of calico, twenty million yards
Of bleached and dyed goods, one and hall
million of wooden cloths, and over million
yards of earpetings. Think of strip Of
cotton cloth, yard wide and two hundred
miles long, made dailyl Enough in a year
to go twice round the globe, with ends FIVE
thousand miles long to tie with.
So much for little Lowell, town in Mass
achusetts, containing about 10000 inhabi-
tants This town was made exclusively by
its manufactures. It's cotton mills are now
yielding profit that stimulates to the highest
degree of production. Its fabrics are known
throughout the world. They are sold side by
side with the best Manchester goods IN Chi
ma, inSouth America, and in the Islands of
the Eastern seas. Boston grows rich on the
dividends of the Lowell Mills, and her white
sails are seen on every ocean bearing the pro-
ducts of home industry and capital.

walker and His FlIIbu.tsr..

The agrey-eyed man of destiny does
not seem to meet with more than his usual
success in his last foray upon Central Ameri-
ca. Gen. Walker succeeded in landing
squads of his men at the Island of Ruatan, as
they arrived in different fruit vessels from
New Orleans but at Belize, Honduras, The
British authorities seized one of his pirate
vessels and took from it twenty-seTen boxes
Of eontraband arms and ammunition The
captain then abandoned his vessel and with
the passengers and crew proceeded TO the Ru-
atan rendezvous. The captured vessel was
the schooner Clifton, of New Orleans, and
the subject is to be laid before Gen. Cas-
BET A letter from Belize July 25th, says;
Aher collecting his men together at Rua-
tan, Walker proposed descent on Omoa or

President Of Honduras Affer Feinstatng

Wait Awhile.

There was great inquiry yesterday among
the irish Democrats of this oityfor the books
aid papers of the old Know Nothing Lodge.
They say that as their party in New York
has sold cut TO the dark-lantern fraternity,
they must lose no time in mastering the grips
and passwords Of the Order. A crowd Of
them were in front Of the Times and Herald
Office, hunting up some one who could teach
them the hailing sign and signal of distress.
They were advised to wait until Douglas re-
turns from his search after his mother, away
up there in Maine. He is unquestionably
posted up in the most recent improvement in
Iodge-working, and can tell them how to
curse Dutchman in the most approved man
ner. As soon as he gets back, the dressing
rooms Of the pro-slayery ampitheatre viii be
opened for the initiation Of candidates No
Germans viii be received, as it is understood
they dare to be dissatisfied with this selling
out Of the party to the rump of American
ISM Chicago Press and Tribune.

Horrible Murder-A SON and Sister Killed.

Horrible AIurder--A Son and Sister Killed,
Geo. Aldrich, a convict, who had just
served out term of five years in the Yir-
ginia Penitentiary, for killing a man in Lo-
gan, left Richmond few days since, and on
arriving at Logan county, found that his fam
lily had moved across the river to Warfeld,
Lawrence county, Virginia. The Kanawha
Republican says: a.l
He followed them. He murdered his sis
I ter in the most shocking manner, literally
cutting her to pieces, taking out her heart
and hacking it to pieces, and then throwing
the body into Sandy river. The body of his
son lad of about thirteen years old, was
found in a by-place, nearly eaten up by hogs
but was readily identified by a remarkable
scar on one foot, which had been preserved
by the shoe and stocking. He wss'by wife
who had obtained divorce. After the per-
petration of these horrid deeds, the iend, with
his gun in hand, fled to the woods, saying
that he intended tokill his father and mother
and two other persons-and then the people
might take him, burn him at the stake or do
what they pleased with him. The excited
people are after him.

+, "senlimentui JOuruey'' ef DOHsias.
The old Philadelphia Inquirer in noticing
Tie pilgrimagc Of candidate Douglas osten-
siiay to visit his mother in New York, and
his native hills in Vermont, together with
lateral excursions equal to Tristan shandy,
comes to the conclusion that he is pursuing a
very devious journey to the White House,
and will probably arrive at that delectable
mansion at the next recarence Of the " Greek
EaiendsPI .E)EII5i()H
Among the speculations concerning his
probable objects in this stumping tour, the
Inquirer says the most popular one is, that
while he bas neither expectations or hope Of
carrying the Electoral vote Of a single one OF
the States in which he has been speaking, he
looks forward to the leadership Of great
Northern party, to be composed Of the " Free
Democracy, and portion Of the present Op-
position, which party is to be his base line of
operations for the Presidency in 1864. This
hypothesis is plausible, but its anticipated re-
suits are rather remote, and, We may add,
slightly uncertain. The representative man
of Young America lives too much in the
near future to postpone for so long period
the reward for his arduous labors. Is it not
more likely that his object is to accumulate
in his favor large popular vote, to Offset it.
against that which may be cast for Breoken-
ridge, in order that he may demonstrate that
he (Douglas) was the choice Of the masses Of
the Democratic party for the Presidency -
1t seems to us quite clear that this is the i'm
mediate object Of Judge Douglas, and this Sc
cured, the other and more distant advantage
may be lel for future contemplation and ac-

years Of age are BOT listed for taxation at all

out by the e.Ovner Of property of such uncer-

also exempt from taxation, and the margin
between twelve and disability is wonderfully
narrowed down when the assessor calls

Under the Christian law Of the enlightened
Commonwealth the negroes are sold out as

and generally with such distinct enunciation
and voice as to be heard by the entire audi
ence. All were good, several were warmly
applauded, and boquets were thrown to some
Of the fair graduates. We have no oppsrtu-
nifty at this late hour to particularize, farther
than to say that tFourIeaEed Clover" "Life
is Magic Ring, and Seward ranked
among the best of the, one-seore and nine.-
All were brief none tiresome, some spright-
ly, and several so touching that we noticed
grey-heads on and off the stage in melting
moods. Prof Morgan delivered the Diplo-
mas, with sound words Of advice and warm
Communications and blessings.
The music, vocal and instrumental, as
ever at oberlin Commencements, was excel
lent. The beautiful song of the class, from
the pen ofthe gifted Miss Everson, gradu-
ate, was sung with truly fine effect. The
music was as appropriate to the interesting
occasion as the sentiments and words. A
numerous band Of loving sisters, clothed ia
pure white, emblem Of youthful innocence
and.purity, was to be broken; and like sweet
bells three hundred voices, tremulous with
emotion, chimed IN response the parting fare
well. The last verse was sung by the pupils
in the gallery Immediately after the presen-
tation of the Diplomas,and was befttingf-

Ladies' Department of Oberlin College.

plauded by an immense audience.
