NnnIea in InsurrecrIon.

The cruelties aud expressions Of Francis the
Second have ct lsst driven his subjects to in
surrection-a result which was clearly foreseen
by all but that second Caligula, his minions
and hackers. So far, the accounts received are
exceedingly meagre; while they appear to have
been got up in the interest Of that young tyrant,
and hence can be relied upon only in part
The movement began on the 4th or 9th instant,
at Messina, on the Island Of Sicily, the teIe-
graph representing it as . mere riot, caused by
certain "rOughs" Of that place. The govern
ment, however, viewed the matter differently,
for large bodies Of troops were instantly de-
Spatehed to Sicily, where the insurTeetion was
spreading at latest accounts. A similar attempt
made in the city of Naples would sPpear to
have been immediately suppressed.
The NeapOlitan army consists Of about one
hundred and forty thousand men; but many Of
the principal officers are known to be bitterly
hostile to the administration of Francis and the
priestly influences by which he Is controlled
If the insurgents can only hold their own for a
few weeks, there can be little doubt regarding
the final result. Austria is no longer ready TO
march her legions into Southern Italy in.behalf
of despoti1m, a. she has been accustomed to do.

Of Robert Z. Campbell

The Davenport Gazette of April %, gives
the particulars of the remarkable suicide ol
ROBERT E. CAMPRELL, Esq leading banker
of Davenport, Iowa. Mr.. CAMPBELL was well
known to many in this section of Ohio He
shot himself in his banking house about IL
O'Clock Saturday, An, and on hearing the
pistol shot citizens ran in and found Mr.. c. in
back corner of the room, reclining against
door and partially on lounge. The Gazette
says:
Lifted on the lounge he did not breathe again,
although his pulse beat family some minutes.
He had shot himself with a revolver, some.
what behind the right ear, the ball passing
through the brain and lodging against the
skull Of the forehead, but not penetrating it.
DR.. Baker arrived a few minutes after the act,
and soon pronounced him dead. At the time
he shot himself, his son, Augustus, who was
engaged with his father in business, and James
ThOrington, Esq Sheriff, were in the ROOM
He had just paid the Sheriff thousand dollars,
and Mr.. ThoringtOn was seated at table be-
hing the counter, engaged in counting the
money, facing Mr. @ who was only few feet
distant, when the pistol was discharged. -
Looking up he saw Mr.. O.'s hand, with piss
tOl in it, dropping slO Wy from his head, and
his body slowly sinking to the floor Mr.. O.
was standing up, his face half turned from Mr.
ThoringtOn when the pistol was discharged
He never groaned or made sign Of life afler-
ward.
Mr.. Campbell was aged IS years He
came here from Ravenna, Ohio, early in 1856,
bearing an excellent character and having con-
siderable capital. He was the first in the real
estate and banking firm Of NickOIs, Campbell
& Co. He was generally regarded as cautious
and close, but prompt and honorable business
nan. He was unobtrusive and pleasant in So
cial intercourse, and man Of intelligence and
high private worth. BE was sensitive on the
subject of his business credit, and with his PEI
ouhar ideas of life and death, and the small
gulf between SO easily passed, almost to quote
his own language--it was not q moments
choice when he found his credit in danger, to
take away the life which according to his own
peculiar ideas might be associated with bust
ness dishOnOT. He had recently been much
troubled about business matters, particularly
about some things growing out of the old firm
Of NiekOlls, Isbell d Co, which were in some
manner thrown upon his shoulders, and were
involving him, and upon which he had just
paid the sheriff large sum as noticed above.
Mr.. Campbell leaves a wife, who is now at
the Burtis House, where they were boarding,
q son Augustus, employed in his Office; q son
Frederick, who has been two years at Pixies
Peak and married daughter At Cleveland,
Ohio.

Rnlarremen, OF The yvelIund Canal.

The subject of enlarging the Wellsnd Canal
is before the Canadian Parliament. According
to Mr.. shsnley'l report the cost would be two
millions of pounds. Others contend that the
cost would not exceed one million. Mr.. Mer-
ritt stated during the discussion that the capi,
tai required to build a single track railway
along side the canal would be four hundred
thousand dollars, SO that single track rail-
way could be built every year for less than the
interest on the cost of enlarginp the canal.

According to the epistle Of the "seniOr edi-
tor" Of the Dealer, Charleston is just the place
Of all others in North America for holding
PsO-Sl avery Democratic National Convention.
He writes:
Charleston, like Cleveland, has about sixty
thousand inhabitants, some forty thousand Of
whom are black, and some fifteen thousand are
Tree blacks.
The 'seniOr editor" has not completed
census of the sOetoroOns"-at least he does
not give the figures, BE is hugely enamOred,
however, with the condition of the "cOlOred
population, /" and puts il before that ''Of white
labOrers in any Northern city" Hear him:
The eolored population are better cared for
here than the same population Of white labor,
ers in any Northern city. They are extremely
well dressed and are the happiest faces we meet.
They are under rigid discipline, but this is for
their good. For Instance when the evening
drum is heard from the balcony of the City
Guard house, which is ct 10 o'clock, every
darkey hss to leave the street and retire to
where be belongs. If caug ht out by the PO-
lice, Of which there is a strong force always on
duty, he is taken to the lookup and cat@o' nine
tailed next morning. If this was done in
every Northern city it would be better for the
morals of young men and the community In
general
Complimentary to the white labOrers of
Northern cities truly The eOlOred population
are under rigid discipline, but this is for their
good. II caught out after 10 O'Clock. the
"darkey" is taken "tO the lOck-up and eat-O'-
nine tailed next morning" Its fOr their good
writes the Douglas driver. and aif this was
done in every Northern city it would be better
for the morals of young men and the oOmmu-
nifty in general" The "white laborers" of
Northern cities, worse of than the colorsd
population Of Charleston, forty thousand of
them slaves, the ''senior editor" thinks would
be improved by the rigid discipline of slave
masters, the lookup and eatsO'- nine tails ! A
novel Democratic mode of lettering "ihe
morals Of young men and the community in
general" certainly and worthy of the distin-
guishsd philanthropy and regard for white
labOrers Of Northern cities entertained by the
'senior editor" of the Cleveland Plaindealer.
