WILLIAM II. BIssELL, Governor of Illinois, died
on Sunday afternoon at Spring fed, his official resi-
dence. Col. Bissell is native Of this State, born
near Cooperstown, Otsego County, April p, ISL,
and of course was not quite 40 years old. His
father pioneer settler from Connecticut, gave
him such school advantages as his moderate cir
cumstances allowed, and he graduated at Jefferson
Medical College in Philadelphia 10 1885. He prac-
ticed medicine the two following years at Painted
Post, in this State, and then removed to Monroe
County, Illinois, where he was chosen as Demo-
crat to the Legislature in 1S40 He changed his
profession about this time from Medicine to Law,
locating at Belleyille st. Clair Co., whence he vol
unteered in 1876 for the Mexican War, and was
chosen Colonel, serving with distinction under
Gen. Taylor in the Buena Vista campaign. On his
return, LIE was chosen to Congress as Democrat
by a large majority. He served through the
XXXIst and the XXXIId Congress, being re-
elected by unanimous vote. His controversy
with Col. JEFF. Davis of Mississippi, which cul-
minated in challenge by the latter and its prompt
acceptance by Col Bissell, is well known. Happily,
the duel, which seemed for time inevitable, was
avoided. Col. B., who had previously evinced
Free.Soil sympathies took decided ground against
the Nebraska BILL united in the organization of the
Republican party, and became its candidate for
Governor in the struggle of 1856. Had his health
not been seriously impaired about this time by an
attack of disease, which nearly paralyzed his
lower extrsmites he might have been the candidate
for President. In the election, though Col. Ere
mont lost the Electoral Vote of Illinois, Col. Bissel
was chosen Governor, the total vote being

Col Bissel He has never been we'll man since
his affection, but has gradually faded away, unable
to walk, and hardly able to stand. His mind, how
ever, remained clear to the last.

of the most estmabe citizens of the State becomes

sLAyE.BURNINGs.

We said, the other day, in all article on slave
burnings, that we did not pretend to do more than
give some instances of that method of punishment at
the South, as full catalogue of such atrocities, for
any given number of years, would be impossible.
Our list however, is likely to swell in dimensions,
from the attention which the foolish assertion of
Mr.. Davis of Mississippi is attracting in other quar-
teIs The (Saint Louis) Ereling Neps of the l4th
instant republishes an account of the burning of
slave at the stake, within year. in Missouri. The
Neus, as good Southern paper, pronounces the
speech Of Mr.. Van Wyck as grayely false and I'M
" charitable" but the assertion which Mr. Davis
declared to be " false" utterly false" and for
making it, I" denounced Mr.. Van Wyck as a " liar
" and scoundrel," The Nens acknowledges not
only to be true in general but true in particular,
regards its own State, not eight months ago. The
account of this tragedy, as published in the st.
Louis papers of the 22d of July last, is as follows:
"NEGRo LYEcHISG IN SALINE CoUSTY.-Marshall,
Saline County, No., July 20, lS59.-Some time ago,

named Hinton, Waverley, in this county. He

was conveying him to prison, he was set upon by the
crowd, and taken from that officer. The mob then
proceeded TO the Jail, and took ttence two other NO

Yet when the Opposition msjorit, of the Com
mttee of Was and Mesns endeayor to report
bill in accordance with the recommendations OF the
President ard the prayers of the People, they find
Themselves bottled by the tenacious resistance oil the
cotton growing interest aided by rules which enable
two ffhs of the House to block the ~ay IN dehahce
Of three. iifths. But the rules were on Friday
amended, and yesterday the bill was reported All
the signs indicate that, with perhaps some modiii-
cations of detail this bill will pass the House by
handsome majority but we fear, only to be defeated
in the Senate. In other words, the Pfesldepts
political opponents will do their best to give
effect to his recommendations with regard to the
Tariff, but his political friends will probably have
power to defeat them.
We deeply regret this. That bill, if passed, would
doyery much to reinygorate the langushng industry
of our country 1t would open new and long closed
mines; put furnaces into blast; reanmate long
silent factories; and add immensely to the aggregate
of cur annual production Hundreds Of thousands

satisfactory wages would find new avenues 30 en-
plo.ment opening before them on every side and

and other staples. We have as undoabtlrg falth
that the passage of this bill would add at least One
Hundred Millions per annum to the earnings and
wages of Labor throughout the country as we have
that the sun will rise tomorrow.
What, then, stops the way Nothing but the
resoIute will and supposed interest Of three hun
dred thousand breeders and workers of slaves, who
conceive that their profits will be diminished BY
measure demanded by the interests and the voices OF
the great body of our Eighteen Millions OF Free
Laboring People. Abstract the Three Hundred
Thousand who fancy the Government always must

cause ii generally has been and the resistance 10
the passage Of this Tariff bill would scarcely make
itself felt.
All we'll the day approaches when the Eighteen
Millions will be stronger than the Three Hundred
Thousand. And yet when the question is one OF
work and bread or ideness and famine for very
many, it seems hard to wait Patience Is great
virtue but what virtue is more difficult

that Mrs. Brennan, whose disaPpearancefrom Staten

named we are not informed, but she is thought Mt

The House yesterday concluded action ON its
rules. We rejoice to note that the rule which linn
its speeches to one hour each was sustained by Ia
majority. An attempt TO readmit ex-Members to
the floor of the House failed by the Speakers cast

There ought to be rule prescribing that the
highest vote cast for any candidate for Speaker
shall elect on the seventh ballot, should no elect
be previously made by majority, and that the
highest candidate on the third ballot for CLERK,
Printer, Sergeant alarms, &C., shall likewise be
chosen. But we must be content to grow wise BY
degrees.

New-Orleans papers of Thursday last contain
details of Mexican received by the Star OF tho
West Miramop, with 5000 men and numerous
train of artillery and ammunition stores, had en-
camped within four miles of Vera Cruz establish
ing his headquarters at Medelin. Col. Yivaddo,
WHO commanded one of the principal forts on the
southern side of Vera Cruz, had been detected in
conspiracy to blow up the fort on the approach of
Mramon. Thirty conspirators had been banished
from the city, and Vivaddo had been condemned to
four years Imprisonment. The Havana expedition
under Marin, which had raised the Mexican flag
when out of the Havana Harbor, was last heard of
at Sisal. 1t was well armed, and it was thought
other vessels had sailed from Havana on the same
mission. Marin was to land on the coast near the
mouth of the river MedelD, and thus communicate
with Miramon. Juarez, however, had planted a
battery at that point and had stationed vessels
along the coast to intercept Marin. The United
States vessels Savannah Saratoga and Preble were
anchored under the inside walls of San Juan de
Ulloa, ready to act in an emergency. Capt. Tur-
ner of the Saratoga had gone TO Miramon's camp,
in behalf of the American citizens.
Later.-By telegraph, we have New-Oresns ad-
vices of yesterday, and Vera Cruz to the 9TH inst,
which wear serious aspect. Miramon was closely
besiegpg Vera Cruz and made an assault on the
night of the 9TH, which, however, was repulsed.
Two of the Church party's steamers have arrived
at New Orleans, prizes to our naval force at
Vera Cruz, but on what grounds is not stated We
are clearly on the eve of being embroiled in the
domestic quarrels of the Mexicans, to subserye
personal and sectional ends.

Tie Senate of Pennsylvania has unanimously

House) authorizing the Governor to appoint three
Commissioners, to confer with like Commissioners,

legislative or other action as may be deemed proper

Pro Raia principle, or such approximation to it as
NAV be found feasible We rejoice in the hope that
