STAR. WASHINGTON OITY: WEDNESDAY...... +,-September 12, 1860. Spirit of the Merning Press. The Constitution treats upon the gradual de- ‘Velopment of republicanism, and concludes its review of the Hon. Alexander H. Stephen’s late speech at Augusta, Georgia. The Intelligencer publishes and compliments Mr. Stephen's Augusta speech. — 17 Heenan’s pugilistic exhibition ended in a wild riot at Woonsocket, R. 1. ————— i> Wm. D. Totty, convicted of the murder of his sister-in-law at Rithmond, Va., has been refused a new trial and sentenced to be hung on the 34 cf November. An appeal, however, has deen taken to the Court of Appeals. 17> Professor Lowe, backed by his friends, has determined, in a couple of weeks, to make another effort to ascend from Philadelphia in his great air- ship. The work of repairing damages to the can- vas, caused by the late accident is to be com- amenced immediate]; iL The census returns are so far reported that the New Hampshire papers put the population of ‘the State at 322,000—an increase of only 4,000 in ten years. There is a falling off in the rural towns and_« gain in the manufacturing. Portsmouth shas shrunk a little. I> The furniture used by the Prince of Wales at St. John, N. B., bas been sold by auction. The Prince's bedstead brought $126; the Duke of New- vastle’s bedstead, $53 25; reception chair on which the Prince sat to receive company, $13 56; dress- ing table, with glass and marble top, $64. ConcRessionat REPRESENTATION OF VIRGINIA. ‘The Richmond Enquirer says: “If the present ratio of representation in Congress is preserved, the increased population in the State, when taken in connection with the fractional excess at the last appointment, will give three additional members of Congress.”’ Navat.—The U. 8. frigate Congress, L. M. Goldsborough, sailed from Maldonado July 19, for St. Catharines and Ric de Janeiro. The U.S brig Dolphin, Chas. Stedman commanding, was still at Buenos Ayres July 25. The U.S. steamer Pulaski, Capt. W. H. Macomb, sailed from Mon- tevideo July 25 for Paraguay. U7 The Deseret News of August 15th gives the names of about sixteen hundred persons who ate on their way to Salt Lake City. Their trav eling stock consisted of nearly three hundred ‘wagons and carts, seven hundred oxen, one hun- dred and eighty-six cows, anda large number of tents. 0 The Kankakee Democrat says that the Prince of Wales and his party will go from Chicago to St. Louis on the Illinois Central Raii- road, in a special train, and that the train will make a halt at Kankakee long enough to give the party an opportunity to go on a prairie-chicken hunt. UPA case was decided on Saturday in the third district court, New York, which involved the constitutionality of a city ordinance against street preaching. A man named Falconer was arrested for lecturing on temperance in the Park, und being taken before the justice he demanded atrial by jury. The jury decided in effect that the ordinance in question was in violation of free speech, and that the defendant must be discharged. D7 Very recent accounts from Europe, and es- Pecially from the eastern part of it, modify con- siderably previous reports of the condition of the crops. Although storms and locusts have done much damage in the Russian grain-bearing prov- inces, there is a strong belief that the harvest will turn out to be a good one. Spain will have a large surplus for exportation, and as most likely of an excellent quality. The deficiency will be chiefly in the British Islands, Holland, and Ger. “Many, but, as other crops have not suffered to the same extent us wheat, the demand may not prove So great as many have supposed. From India vast quantities of rice will be supplied. paseo twats: sere > The Mormons, it would seem, have no present intention of leaving Salt Lake Valley. ‘They are busy erecting in every settlement sub- stantial buildings for council-houses, court-houses, meeting-houses, and school-houses. Grist and saw mills, nafl factories, foundries, and every kind of machine shop are becoming common. A few miles from the city Brigham is iaying outa nursery, with a million trees, which he calculates will inten years tarn him ines many dollars. The building of the Great Temple bas recom- menced, and every spare team is hauling the mas- ive rock from Cotton road into the city. Of the magnitude of this edifice: our readers will form some notion from the fact that the foundation alone cost $60,100, and a contract has recently ‘been concluded for the hauling of the rock for the basement story, a distance of ten miles, for 40,000 ‘The building is to cover an area of 21,850 feet. pS SE eae Tux Dexe or Newcasttz.—The following notice of the Duke of Newcastle, who accom- panies the Prince of Wales on his visit to the British North American Colonies and the United States, as bis mentor, which we take from Burke’s “Peerage and Baronetage of the British Empire,” for the present year, will be interesting to our readers just at this time: “* Henry Pelham Piennes Pelham Clinton, Duke of Newcastie-under-Lyme, county of Stafford, and Earl of Lincoln; Keeper of St. Briaval’s Castle; born 224 of May, 1611; married, 27th Lady Susan ham Alexander, Earl of Lincoln, 2sth 1634, member of Parliament. “<2.

The proposal of Hiram Sibley, representing the Vfestern Union Line, was in accordance with the misimum gum In the act of Congress, namely: #40, and $3 fora single dispatch of 5 the usual proportionate d. tion upon dispatc of greater length. Theodore Adams, of Harris- burg, Pa., bid $29,000 per annum for ten years. Orville Clarke, of Sandy Hill, N. Y., and J. Har- mon, of. Detroit, bid- per annum for ten years. B.F. Ficklin, of St. Joseph, Mo , makes three bids. The first $35,000 per annum for ten years. The second $40,000 per annum, and to transmit all Government dispatches at $1 50 for the first ten words, with the usual deduction for those of greater length. The third $10,000 per annum, accompanied with a proposition to run a pony express after the first five hundred miles of the line is finished, at the usual telegraph rates, until the line iscompleted. There were present at the opening of the bids, Messrs. Sibley, Fick- lin, James S. Graham and a Mr. Bee, the last named gentleman connected witha Placerville and St. Josephsline. The Secretary will Probably make his decision this week. These bids, six in number, were all that were Presented; and if in accordance+with the act of Congress, they were “accompanied with the cer- tificate of a United States District Attorney, or District Judge, stating that he is acquainted with each of the persons signing the guarantee and knows them to be men of sufficient property to make good the above guarantee,” it is sufficient to ensure the erection of a telegraphic line to the Pacific. It rests now with Secretary Cobb to determine which bid, in his opinion, is the lowest offer and the most acceptable to the Government. There is but little difference between Messrs. Clark & Co. and B.F. Ficklin’s last bid; yet the last bid of Mr. Ficklin seems to present great advantages to the people and the press of the country; and as they are to be the parties benefitted, it is presuma- ble the Government will enjoy like advantages. At the end of 500 miles, and, indeed, unt!l the Telegraph iscompleted, we are insured under it a tri-weekly pony express to our western coast; and we all know now the immense advantage of a semi-weekly one, particularly our commercial men. ‘We know Mr. Ficklin is well acquainted with the wilds of our Western frontier, and if any man in the countty can push forward this great work to a speedy completion, he is that man. We therefore hope that the enterprise may fall to his lot; which will happen if, all things considered, his bid proves to be the lowest and most desirable for the Government. ——_—_»-——_ Tus Key to His Jovanzy.—it geems that Mr. Herschel V. Johnson, suddenly abandoning his remaining appointments to address the people in Georgia and other Sonthern States, has gone post haste to New York. Now, the key to this unex- pected journey of his is found in the whisperings of the Douglas managers here. It seems that the “force”? speech of Mr. Douglas, delivered it Norfolk, Va., as published in the Norfolk Argus, and repeated by him at other points in Virginia, has played hob with the scheme of drawing off from the Breckinridge ticket in Georgia, votes for Douglas sufficient to secure the State to Bell; the game for which the Georgia Douglas leaders have been playing. It will be remembered that, in effect, the argument or posi- tion of the “force” speech in question is little more than a paraphrase of the threats of the New York Trivune, and Messrs. Sumner, Wade, ¢t al , that in case of resistance in what she regards as her constitutional rights, abolitionism will send its armed cohorts down upon the Sonth to com- pel her submission. As might have been expected, the assumption of such a position by Mr. Douglas is causing every States-rights man at the South to wash his hands of Douglasism ; and ere the rise of the Douglas party all the southern democracy were States-rights men. hus, the errand of H. V Johnson to New York is to the end of inducing Douglas at once to modify his “force” position in order to ‘‘save the pieces’ at the South; and to that end only. He will probably fail in it, as the Maine election must tend to convince Douglas that the only way in which he can hope to save the pieces at the North, is to fight the d—1 with even hotter abolition fire than he has been using there up to this time. He cannot afford to venture to correct his southern mistake at this particular juncture. That's clear. So Mr. Johnson will have but his labor for bis pains, we apprehend. 6 TRiaL ov THE Great Floyp Gux.—A Board to consist of the following named officers will convene at Fort Monroe, Va, on Tuesday, the 18th instant, for the purpose of examining the fifteen inch gun there mounted, and of witnessing the firing with the same. ‘The Board will report whether or not the efficiency of our present arma- ment for harbor defense would be improved by the addition of a judicious proportion of guns of this class. The firing will be done under the direction of the Captain, T. J. Rodman, of the Ordnance Department. Lieut. Tallmadge, Recorder. Detail for the Court Engineers —Gen. Joseph G. Totten, Maj. J. E.

Fee reat Misraintep.—By some m ishap, the editorial article in yesterday's Star explaining the cause and circumstances of the overwhelming defcat of the nominal Democratic-party cause in Maine on the day before, went to press without the usual correction. Consequently, we were made to seem to have written nonsense in Penning more than one of its sentences; though it is to be Presumed that nine readers out of ten compre- hended at a glance how that its:‘confusion worse confounded’ occurred. 2 Scrvevor Geyerar, Dervry Scaverons, &c We understand that the accounts of the Surveyor General, Deputy Surveyors, Receivers, and Dis- bursing Agents threughout the United States have been adjusted by the General Land Oftice up to date. —-.—.

When within a few rods of the shore, the raft ca zed; some of us got back on it ong them, the captain and myself; the captain got one of the ladies back; a big sea came and us off. ‘The captain was the last man on the float; I heard him cheer- ing the passengers; another sea came, washed him off, and he drowned. Of the twenty-four ‘who were on the float, only eight were saved. “‘Aftér the life-boat was launched, a yawl which was aft was launched. ‘Two boats were launched from the hurricane deck. I knew only two men on the raft—the pe and Mr. Waldo, the clerk of the National Mine at Ontonagon. ““W hen it became light in the morning, thefour rafts were in sight, and many floating on pieces of the wreck. The captain called to each of the rafts and inquired if his southern friends were aboard. They answered from each that they were not.’ (The friends referred to (says the Times) were probably Col. F. A. Lumsden and family, of New Orleans, and Mr. Garth and family, of mong 6 ] ‘The family of Mr. L. consisted of Limseif, bis wife, hisson Frank, and an adopted daughter named Emma. The baggage of the party was not with them, it having been sent from the Tremont House in charge of the Adams Express Company. STATEMENT OF THE STEWARD Frederick Rice, steward of the cee se says the dancing on board was suspended half an hour before the collision on account of the heavy wind and sea. but the whole boat was lighted tg brilliantly. Mr. R. describes the scene on boat the steamer after the collision as one of the wildest excitement and terror. Passengers ran hither and thither with alarm. Women screamed and clung to their husbands or companions in frantic terror. For a considerable time after the boat left the wreck, the terrific shrieks of the passengers were heard above the howling tempest. IncipEents. It is said that one man, a prssenger, who was saved in one of the boats, left his wife and child on the vessel, and in his abject fright did not seem to think of them until he was himself safe on land. Mr. Eviston was with his wife on the pilot- house, and his sole care seemed to be for her. When near the shore, a huge wave washed her off into the lake. Her husband instantly left his Place and swam to her assistance. Seiz! ng herin bis arms he straggled back through the waves, and by great exertions succeeded in placing ber pay by his side on the pilot-house. Both were saved. Edward Spencer, a student of the Garrett Bib- lical Institute, was pecially Prominent in bis efforts, and plunged into the surf with a rope tied around his body, thus rescuing several from a watery grave. The life-boat, in which were the two mates, came in below Winetka. One of the boats from the hurricane deck started with twelve n- gers, eight of whom were saved. ‘The boat upset twice. A lady and child who were on this boat Were washed away once and picked up. They Were washed off the second time and drowned. For five miles along the shore the surf was filled with fragments of the wreck. Furniture, doors, the piano, carcasses of cattle, and fragments torn from the boat, told the fearful tale of destruction and death. John Furlong,when the boat began to break up, found a cabin door, with which he threw himself into the water. A man who gave his name as Gough, from Indiana, made his way to Furlong’s raft, which proved insufficient for both, end Gough refusing to relinquish his hold, Furlong left it, and sueceeded in rexching a cattle pen, upon which he and a comrade reached the shore Gough wes lost. ee ee LatER From MeExico—Pronunciamento in favor of Comonfort.—The N.QO. Picayune of the 6th inst. says: -‘Intellizgence of the highest authority, and brought by the last steamer from the Rio Grande, has been placed in our hand to the effect that a general pronunciamento in favor of the re- turn of ex-President Comonfort to authority in Mexico bas been planned and is on the eve of being proclaimed This new movement, as we are assured, is not confined to the northern States of the Republic, where, however, it was first in- augurated, but is coextensive with the Republic. The governor and highest officials of each and every one of the States adhering to the constitu- tonal cause are inthe secret, and when the signal is pore will all pronounce simultaneously. We call this movement a new one. It is such, how- ever, only in the sense that it has now beon fully matured and brought toa head. For six months now, it bas been well known to all intimately conversant with affairs in Mexico thatthe wires were being laid, and that for this {ernae Gene- rals Doblabo, Tracona, and others visited this elty the last winter for purposes of personal conference with the ex-President, and afterward left for their respective fields of actiow.
