During the year ending June 80, 1870, the
number of persons who left Canada, and the
other British American possessions, to become
citizens of the United States, was 40, io3. inns
number was exceeded only by Germany, Great
pritain. and Ireland. Why, do you suppose, was
tbis number so great Simply because the
English laws force free trade on their colonies,
and the people are driven out of them for want
of fair wages for fair work.

The Easton Journal, referring to the extract
we recently published from the Star Of that
place, broadly limiting of corrupt bargain be-
tween Col. Hambleton and Ex-Governor Swan,
to parcel the two Senatorships of Marylad be-
tween them, positively denies the story so far as
1t relates to Col. Hamblet \. AS the journal
speaks for the latter, we give him the beneht
of it's denial for we would not willingly do,
even party opponent injustice, but yet, we can
not believe that the people of the First DIS
trict will accept simple denial as sufficient an
swer, where charge is so pointedly made by a
paper Of Col Hambleton's own party. A grayer
charge could scarcely be brought against gen-
tleman than that ho intimately associated with
Tom Swami, much less made political combl-
nation with him. Does the Star retract It's
charge?

Az ATTEMPTED OuTRAeE.-A
lady from this city, who has been
spending the summer upon her
farm near Rappahannock station,
in Fauquier county, was suddenly
aroused from her slum5ers a few
nights since by the pressure Of a
hand upon her arm, and opening
her eyes saw a large negro man
standing by the side Of her bed.
She Immediately screamed for help,
and her overseer, who was an in
mate of the house, armed with q
stick and gun, at once ran to her
assistance. The villain hearing
tue approach of the overseer,s seized
a young lady, who was sleeping
in the same bed with the lady just
mentioned, in his arms and spring
ing through q side door darted for
the woods, and had reached the
gate of the enclosure before the
overseer caught up with him and
forced him to rellnquish his prey,
by beating him severely over the
head with a club. The young lady
had swOoned from fright. The
affair occasioned great excitement
in the neighbOrhood, and parties
have been searching for the
wretch, but as yet without success.

THE FATE DE- FRANCE.

The Northern papers all concur
in the opinion that any farther re-
sistance on the part Of Paris or
France can only lead to a further
eiFusion of blood. With 100000
Prussian soldiers in the field, and
no organized French army, the in.
yaders are absolute masters of the
situation. They could overrun and
dcvastate the whole Kingdom.
Things are not now as they were
in 1892 when the flint muskets
we're the only weapons, and the ig.
norant peasants could WELD them
effectively. France has at least
four millions able bodied men, ca
pablo and willing to defend the
native soil; but probably not one
in ten understands the use Of the
Chassepot or the Mitrailleur-
which use can only be acquired by
discipline and habit. France,
therefore, with all her resources, is
powerless in the presence of her
organized enemy. Shei is at the mer-
cy of that foe, who has never yet
exhibited a trait ofgenerosity to a
fallen adversary. With the brutal
instincts which have ever charac
terized the Brandenbourg House,
this enemy delights in mangling
and torturing its victims. Unless
neutral Europe interposes, these
brutal tyrants will delight in the
opportunity which Partisan resis-
lance will supply for Cutting their
appetites for plumber and carnage.
What European Power can
effectually intervene? England
might have done so but for her
shameful abandonment ofthe only
loyal and useful ally she ever had
in France. Her treatment OfBona-
parte would make her profTers OF
mediation insults. Italy is unable,
Austria trembles for herself, and
Russia, perhaps, rather rejoices in
the extinction Of the civilization
which she felt as a reproach to hes
own barbarism.
