RICHARD GOLDEN.

Europe has lost one of her great men, and the
United States one OF her best foreign friends, by
1.-THE death Of Richard Golden, which occurred at
,,London on Sunday, the ID Of April. Mr.. Cob
sden had been for several years in feeble health,
Fand had but recently yenturcd 70 come to
London, in order TO take part in the debate on
sCanadian affairs. lis intimate friend, John
bright, waswith him in his dying hoirs.
7 Richard Golden was born in lS0i at Durn-
fford. near Medhurst. Having early lost his
lfather, who cultivated small estate at Durn-
ford. he was initiated into business by his uncle.
J Becoming a traveller on commission, he found
Fan opportunity TO journey through Turkey,
y reecc, Egypt and the United States. He sub
! sequeaily settled in Manchester as a cotton
smanufacturer and soon began to attract atten-
: tion 10y two pamphlets in which he treated
,ptIitical questions from a commercial point OF
.yiew. In I-3S the memorable agitation
lfor the repeal Of the corn laws com
smenced. which, under the able leadership
! of Golden. ended in the complete success of the
anti. Corn.Law League. Sir Robert Peel in the
'House of Lords and Earl Grey paid to the
talents ard the integrity Of Golden the highest
Tribute OF admiration. Earl Grey said that
gto his genius and perseverance, were they IN
ldebted for the achieve ment of what he believed
ITO be one Of the most important measures with
! relercncc tn the futare welfare of the British
Rpeople that ever received the sanction Of Parlia-
sment. lie ha,\chievcd this triumph by means
I altogether uncxceptionable; all his efforts had
sbeen addressed toward converting the opinion of
1 the nation, and he must say that his success
sappeared almost miraculous.
In 1853 on returning from another visit to
Ftbe United States, Mr.. Golden was offered a
jseai in the Cabinet, but he declined serving
4 hinder Lord Palmcrston. He remained with his
. friend Bright at the head of numerically small
but influential party of reformers in the House of
= commons. He took prominent part in most
: of the great questions discussed by the Parlia-
g. ment. and especially distinguished himself by
his speeches in favor of policy of non -nterven-
Dtion in foreign wars. and of concluding com.
: mercial treaty with France. His speeches made
N "A profound impression upon the public mind.

All Europe has been alarmed by the reported
appearance of the Siberian plague at st. Peters
burg and It's advance toward the frontier Of
Germany. A telegram from st. Petersburg
states that it is committing fearful ravages, and
that official returns as to the number Of victims
have altogether ceased A semi-ofiicial organ
of the Russian Government denies the correct
ness of these reports, which, however the neigh
boring countries agree in accepting as true.
The Austrian Government has sent Medical
Commission to st. Petersburg to examine into
the nature of the epidemic, and the French
Government has ordered all ships arriving from
Russia to be put in quarantine. The English
Government has sent instructions to the consuls
in Russia and the ports of the Baltic to collect
all the Information they could on the subject
and forward il to England.

Tor cognizant Of the plot to assassinate Messrs.
Lincoln and Seward (Which is not to be credited
|on mere surmise or conjecture)it will yet be
seen that they could have devised no other crime
so suicidal, no enterprise so pernicous to them
selves, as that whereof these statesmen were
the victims.
Murder is horrible at best; but the assassin
who steals into chamber of sickness and sui
|fering and puts his dagger to the throat OF the
PROSTATE, helpless victim of wounds already IN
|hicted, must be a more depraved and soulless
VILLAIN than he who strikes down his victim In
the pride of health and manly vigor. The crime
of Booth, hideOus as it is has parallels in those
|of the mscreants who butchered Henry Nv. OF
France and William Of Orange; but the I'M
known miscreant who stole to the bedside OF
|Gov. Seward, with falsehOod on his tongue and
murder in his heart, stands on a pinnacle of in
fanny to which, within our recollection, no other
assassin has yet aspired. For the honor OF hui
man nature we trust he will never have an
|imitatOr.
Gov Seward will survive; and even the
Icrime Of which he has been the victim will not
shake his cheerful faith in Man, his invinciblc
trust in God. An nfexible foe to the Rebellion
land its melting cause, he has never hated its
authors, because he bears hate to nothing which
God has made. And if the fortunes of war shall
place the Rebel leaders in the power Of Andrew
johnson, they will have reason to bless God
that there survives to intercede for them one so
|merciful by nature and SO influential by char
'acter and position as William ii. Seward.
