and also when he told them that neither
the blind man nor his parents were sin.
ners, but that he was blind that the works
of God might be manifested in him.
We should not have adverted to 1his
most unreasonable and unbecoming ex-
preston Of the Bishop of Oxford's, were
it not that there are so many men in our
own country who take this sour, illiberal,
and narrow view of Gods providence
and DEGREES, and that we find consolation
in the fact that fanaticism and bigotry are
not the exclusive growth of American
soil. The human heart is naturally
idoIatrous and the worship of sticks
and stones is but one degree lower than
the worship of our own partizan passions,
invested with Divine altributes.-B9stou

the following incident:
When at the bombardment of Fort
Henry a young Wisconsin boy, who bad
by some means been made a prisoner,
had his arm shattered by ball from our
guhboats, he was taken to one OF the
huts, where Dr.. Voorhies attended to
him. He had just barred the bone when
an enormous shell came crashing through
the hut. The little fellow, without NOV
ing "A muscle, talked with frmness dur
ING the operation of saving the bone,
when another went plunging close by
them. The doctor remarked that it was
getting too hot for him, and picked the /
BOY up in his arms and carried him into
)ne of the bomb-proofs, where the op-
ration was completed. The only an
wer of the Norlberner was, "lf you

CAPTAIN GoRpoN, TmE E.rcuTrr
SLAvER.-Nathaniel Gordon, captain o
the slave ship Erie, which was captured
off the coast of Congo by the L. S. sbir
Of war Mohican, with her cargo of gG7
negroes, and who was executed in the
Tombs, New York for the crime Of man
stealing, was thirty-tive years Of age and
native of Portland, Maine. lie has
been at sea from his youth, beginning as
cabin boy and working his way up to
the position Of captain. Ii appears that
he had made four slave voyages to the
African coast--two of which were sue
cessful. The cargo of the third voyage
had to be landed on the coast Of Brazil.
and the fourth was the one which gave
the Mohican opportunity to capture his
ship, and which placed him in the hands
OF the law and brought him finally to an
ignominious end. Since his trial, CON
He'ion, and sentence, the most strenuous
EFFORTS have been made to procure a par
don, or at least a Communication. but in vain
Only fortnight's respite was allowed the
prisoner, during which time the efforts of
bio f.iends In his favor we're extraordi-
nary. Their failure induced certain pa..
ties to threaten the executive officers if
they performed their duty, and to take
such steps TO beget public clamor against
the act of execution as would contribute
to defeat it. To prevent this, the author
tiles of New York took the necessary
precautions, and no act of riot or disor-
der took place.
On Thursday, the mother and wife of
the condemned criminal spent most of the
day in his cell. The parting in the even
ing was scene very trying to the sym
pathies, but Gordon is represented to
have borne it stoically. He repeatedly {
SAID during the last night of his existence !
that he was prepared to meet his fate
with manly courage. His only solici- I
iude related to his wife, and particularly /
10 her necessities, and in regard TO the C
disposition Of his body. On both sub i
eets be had the generous assurance of :,
he authorities. He was executed about II
'oon yesterday friday and according a
0 the account furnished by telegraph, lie p
made no speech. 1t had been stated that $,
le would do so, and implicate certain par r
les in Portland in the nefarious traffic. :,
'hleh cost him his life, but there is sup Il
osed to be no good grounds for such a pi

The g Scratches"

Inc Richmond Enqutrer, in discuss
ing the late Southern reverses, call,
them she mere scratches on the skin OF
the country" ''the blows that rouse, not
the wounds that weaken and says that
the few thousand troops lost by the South
are drops from the bucket, and that Dlhe
armies of the United States must take a
hundred places stronger than Donelson
or Roanoke-capture a hundred armies
like those they have overcome--have TO
march over many thousands of miles Of
ground and win many hard campaign
before they shall have reason to arrive
at the conclusions dictated by the drunk
en- insanity Of their present jubilee" All
this and more for it says;
"We repeat, though these reyerses are
depressing, they have had a good effect
on the vitality Of The Southern Confeder-
acy. Ihey are affairs Of the outpost,
only they are the wounds Of the skin.
1t We have twenty lost TAFT es in Tennes-
see before the spring begins, they do not
touch the heart or break the limbs of the
Southern giant. If Nashville is taken
no impossible event unless General
Johnston can defeat the enemy in a
pitched battle, or out-maomuvre him in
his evolutions between the Cumberland
aud tennessee riyers-and if we lose in
all the country of which
Nashville is the centre ard capital, il Is

would not be stronger and better able

THE LOST IDOL OF a POOR HOUSEHOLD.

IsADoRE, OBIT, 1861.
Lay her gently down to rest,
Cross the hands above the breast.
OF the one that was our best;
Isadorc,
Ours no more.
Let her shroud be white as snow,
Make her grave where daisies grow.
Near brook, with Iuling flow,
Close between
Banks OF green.
But let no grim sections bell
Toll for her a mournful kne1;
And let no stone tablet tell
Stranger eyes
Where She lies.
For a loss like ours shall be
Known to none Bat two or three.
That the mourners may not see
False tears shed
For the dead.

FROM WARRINGTON.

From An Occssiona Correspondents.
WAsHIssTos, Monday Juns ieei
The latest nsws received from France indirate
that tho chief object OF her policy, at the present
moment, IL directed toward the settlement OF The
Roman question already solved, ss it seems, In the
Emperors mind The belief, in diplomatic circles
is that an agreement has bcen made between 'he
Pore and the Emperor, in viISne OF which the
former, without distinguishing any one OF bis prlvli
eyes. would withdraw for q while from Rome u
which he would be recalled sone tins after by Vic
tor Emanuel. supported in this by . vote Of the
Italian Congress IL is useless to say. that In this
csse the preroQsiivss Of His Hsiaess would still be
large aud not derogat,ry to his Prestigs. He wouia
withdraw from Rome With the consent OF tho BEN
obs Council, now as,e nbled in that city, and thu
carry with him the acqioscence Of the whole Gath
ole world.
Next to the Roman question, American affairs
occupy the attention Of nie French. The arrival 10
Paris of Mr.. GeoAroy First Secretary Of the French
Legation after visit to Richmond, 10 company with
NJ. MERCER, has created ce.van curiosity IN dlpo-
matic circles; and sho1h not be astoDished II nis
presence there should produce much comment from
the French press. He has ha@i several interviews
with NJ. Thouvenel to whom he delivered the dis'
matches Of NJ Mercier relative TO bis trip TO the CAPT
,oI If Rsh.,dorn. lie also visited NJ. Persgny, the
ma.ter mind OF tho Cabinet and 1t il said by some
that the voyage of the latter to Lon0on IL mace e1
clusively in relation 10 American ahslrs' VaorS
assert that NJ Persgny goes thither for no political
object whichever, but simply to take back Inc iawy'
Ii,b have been in the BDglish capital for some time.
Probably both suppositions are true Certainly fer
siopv hsa not received any official mission from the
Emperor. for the very reason that France having a.
ready an Embassdor In London, nests no one else 10
transact business. But great measures have not al
ways been taken and plaos Of policy adopted through
En- basosdors' hands, and the fact thu: Peslgny
knows every political parsonage on the other SIDE o,
the channel and that in many instances he Las acted
upder their influence makes bis visit there sucisny
significant
should not be surprised II the sudden and unes'
pected support granted by the English Cabinet 70 ,he
expeJtion of the French in Mexico, support when
has been announced in unmis,akable terms IN tIe
columns of The London 1fmes, was owing to''S
desire to rivet still moro closely France to the policy
England intends to pursue in the settlement Of
American affairs. So unprecedented, l might say
20 extraordinary, change in the English policy
cannot be attributed to any other cause. mus
when Tie London Times says that England iooA,
without Jealousy to the extension OF the co'on'A,
possessions Of France, and that humanity, order and
freedom would gain immensely BY her permanent
