BURGLARY ExTRAoRDNARr.-In Cumber.

tered building, and, after stealing some
money from the drawer, laid seige to the safe
BY regular mining operation. They laid a
train to the safe to blow 1t open, fired 1t from
the outside. Their labor was lost, for, in the
language Of the Wheeling Intslligenecr-
"The explosion which followed forced out
the vail Of the back building, which fell across
Centre street, and tho roof tumbled In upon
and crushed the contents Of the room. The
main building, on Baltimore street, two and q
half stories high, of brick, was shattered from
the main floor 10 the roof, the glass being
blown out, the doors and window frames
started from the wall, and the walls, front and
| side, forced out and cracked almost to their
downfall. 1t Is needless to say that the bur.
glars did not re-enter the store 10 look after the
| contents of the safe, which was found undel
the rubbish with the outside plate Of the door
shattered"

The "Psscs" Apostle and the Major Cen

We had supposed that Mr.. VallandIgham
was sent to Chicago by his political friends;
but he tells US at Dayton: 81 expect speedily,
by the grace Of God-and l ask no higher au-
thority-to be at Chicago" This effectuslly
dlsposeS Of the authority of the Convention
that sent him. But would he kindly inform an
lnquirng public, In case he had been dlssatis-
lied with the authority he asserts, TO what
higher authority" he would have appealed
In the midst Of his speech the worthy orator
pansed to ask this most puzzling question |;
" What shall say, as an honest manp What,
indeed That question may be called, In the
language OF the rude street boy, "a sockdolo-
ger"
But recovering toward the close of his ad-
dress, he proclaims his purpose "to remain
forever Code noblcst work, an honest man. |"
It Ia most commendable resolution. The
delegate who hold his office as the old kings
doubtless remembers what Othello says to
Emilia of her husband, Iago;
An honest man he is, and hates the slime
That sticks on hlthy deeds"
But being an honest man, why docs the lm-
maculato orator proceed TO asperse the honesty
OF tho soldiers. ~ do not look for personal
aggrandizement. II did should have been a
Major GeHsrdl long ago, aud had millions Of
money Eotd by as The Ipoits Of my Rert IN hs Udr."
This Is the plain assertion thdOthe commits
sion OF major general is the result OF a desire
OF personal aggrandlzement, and that major
generals lay by "spolls" to tho amount Of
millions Of dollars. Mr.. Vallandlgham should
remember that he is . "peAce" man, and not
good authority upon soldiers; who, as they
read such word, will be apt TO eIclaim, a. he
remembers olhello did, with peculiar em-
phasis, when his mind awakened to the truth,
"Ho'ts'i, hoasH Iagol"

The Democratic cenv.ntion.

Some Of the auspices of the Chicago Conyen
tlon betoken evil. A railroad train loaded
with delegates is blown OF the track, and tn,
spectators platform breaks down early In tn,
proceedings. 1t was a "pesce" platform, ",
conclude, for nobody was hurt. The accident
betokens the coming fate OF the peace party.
Peace means the dismemberment of the Gov.
ernment and submission, In fact, TO the de,
mands of JefI. Davis. The people will break
down all such platforms, and those who stand
on them will tumble down.
Mr.. Belmont, according to the press report
OF his speech, warned the Democrats at the
outset of the dissensions Of the Charleston Con-
yention, and with reason. The slave power
broke up the Charleston Convention and the
Democratic party, and brought on the rebel
lion. The sympathizers with the old "institu.
ton" will rule or ruin the Chicago Conven
ton.
The history of these Democratic convention
10 interesting. The one next previous 10 tn
Charleston Convention was opened with grea
eclat by Gen. Sterling Price, who, ct the hest
Of q guerrilla delegation, knocked down tn
uootkeeperr, hnu etroue lnto the hAl Win IN
air OF slayeocrat, followed by Isaiah Rynders
He was expelled, however, and his brothe
s,aveocrats, having everything their own way
proceeded harmoniously TO the nomination o
Buchanan. At this convention, too, the sam
Keystone Club, which "groaned" the Unio
newspapers when they left Philadelphia 70
Chicago, was extremely active. They tool
possession of Cincinnati, seemingly. Th
largest parlors in the hotels were monopolizec
by them. Their bands of music added to th,
general excitement. and they nlled the ali
everywhere with the praises OF James Bu
chanan. That club did more for the nomina
tion OF Buchanan than any other outside in
auence. They now go for peace at the poin
of the knife.

The Fisr..o.. At Ford. Theatre.

Mr.. and Mrs. Florence received an ovation q,
ford's Theatre that must have been very gratiiy.
inE, accustomed a. they are to large and enthusi.
sstio audiences. The theatre was hIled from top
to bottom and all around the lobbles. The area for
promenaders waI filled with spectators, some OF
whom sat on oanvss-baek stools and the Others
maintained perpet dleulsr attitude, except whea
they were "doubled up" with laughter by Flor
enee's rich eomicalities.
Mrs. Fiorenoe was nearly smothered with the
bouquets thrown from the boxes by offieers and
others who, happening to be In the city, tooS 90
easion to testify their appreciation Of these favor
ite children OF Momus and the Grsoss. We trust
that Mr.. Ford will give Us an opportunity to wit
ness, ere long, the nsw pieces that the Florences
have added to their repertoirs.

A plmeuity with Spain Possible.

In the year ls46, the United States made q
treaty with New Grenada, South America, by
which the United States agreed TO guarantee
forcibly If need be, the neutrality of the 18th
mus of Panama. This treaty was ratified
June 18th, lS4S. Now, Peru, friendly coun
try, calls upon the United States OF Colombia
Formerly known as New Grensda) to prevent
Spain from transporting her troops across the
Isthmus for the purpose Of making war upon
Peru.
Colombia, knowing that she has not the
strength To resist or prevent Spain from thus
transporting her troops, calls upon the Gov
ernment Of the United States to fulfI the guar.
antee entered into by the treaty above men
toned.
Our Government fuds no difficulty In determ-
lining that IL Is our duty 10 perform the obliga.
tions set forth in the treaty, whenever the de-
mand shall be made by the proper party; and
in the solution of the latter part of this propo.
sitiOn was found the only doubt or cause for
hesitancy. The matter was referred to the
Attorney General, who, upon consideration OF
the subject aud full examination of the history
of the facts involved, finds that New Grenada
and the United States of Colombia arc one and
the same Government.
So that we must send troops and vessels OF
war, II need be, to maintain our treaty, and
pr'Vent spain from Transporting her troops
across the I,thmus.
II appears that the treaty also guarantees the
absolute sovereignty of New Granada over the
territory named, and recurrence to the his
tory Of the negotiation shows that the agreo-
ment was made with the expectation of pre-
sently being called upon to send troops for IN.
oct, nsible purpose OF maintaining tho treaty.
but really with the design OF occupying and
possessing the territory on behalf Of the Un,t,d
states. Such was the plan OF our, then, sd.
minittration, whose policy was to occupy and
control this continent.
In the Impending results Of this treaty, We
have practical illustration of the impolicy OF
departing from the teachings Of our fathsrs,
and OF the wisdom of Washington and his co.
temporary statesmen, who epJoIned upon ua 10
avoid entering into entuugling alliances with
foreign Powers.
