Know Nothings) unexpectedly large Know Nothing gain there. The editor of the paper to which we refer, to think that these more than ingenuous explicatives of the reason why Vir- gisia came so closely up to our neighbor’s anti election calcelation, are induced by the fact that its mozoy winning friends are aim- ing to give it come even more effective and substantial testimony of their peculiar affec- tion for it at the present writing, than that to whioh they treated the Hon. Henry A. Wize in front of Brown’s hotel. The Rain.—As the rain experienced in this region during the past week turns out to have been very general, there can be no doubt that it ic destined to prove of almost incalcu- lable vaiue to our country. Twenty millions of dollars is a very moderate estimate of the additional value it will give to the crops, above their probable value, had the dry sea- son lasted & month or even three months longer. Is secures us, perhaps, average crops of vegetables (though they will be late) for fifty miles around Washington, and at least quadruples the quantity (weight) of hay that would otherwise have been cut, though we question whether the hay crop.can be an ay- erage one. To have made full crops geu- erally it should have fallen a month ago, as up to its advent we had not had a real “ sea- son” since the snows of winter passed off. In this vicinity the heavy dews and remarkably cool weather had kept the wheat thriving, though the stalk was very generally short. As far as we can poreeive, we have no joint-worm this year around Washington, and far less rust than we ever saw before, for which latter good fortune we may thank the absence of rain. The season of last week, however, will doubt- less make the wheat crop of this region much more than an syerage one, for it will keep the ground quite moist enough throughout the next month, in which the wheat will grow astcnishingly if sunshine is vouchsafed to us abundantly. The backwardness of the sea son has kept the corn and oats apparently at @ “stand still,” though both these crops have looked green and healthy. They must now start forward and grow with great rapidity. Se also must the young clover, which within our observation has every where taken well Our orchards, ia all directions are laden with frit as they have not been for four cr fivo years past. On the whole, the prospect fora successful agricultural season for fifty miles arcund Washington, is now most gratifying, notwithstanding the gloomy aspect of things aweck ago. We have all, indeed, abundant Teasons to. be grateful to Rim who watches over us and provides for our wants. A Characteristic Device.—Some of the so- select coterie of our talented, knowing, truth- fal, entertaining, and ingeauous neighbor caused to be posted around the city a hand. bili signed “ Orricrax,”’ calling on Democrat: to regard the contest of to-day a Democratic ope, and treating the subject so as, if possible, to offend Whig anti-Know Nothings. Tho trick is transparent throughout its every line, even without the addendum in pencil which we enw on more or lesz of them, attributing their issue to the Siar offiec. We thank the nineompoops who got this hand-bill in question Up, for zo completely proving it, on its face, to bea bald Know Nothing trick, on a par with the Secretary of the Navy and Commodore Pan!d- ing story, and with that, the falsehood of which is so completely exposed in the follow- ing letter, which we take from the columns of the last issue of our talented, truthfal, and ingenuous neighbor, aforesaid : POR THE AMERICAN ORGAN. Mr. Editor: Your paper of yesterday oon- tains an article,over the signature of ‘Mo- ilenry,” stating that ‘the Montgomery Guards and National Gaard, have received orders io hold thezase! vos in readiness on Monday next.” And adds, thet native Americans are to bp throstened with the force of the bayonet in the hands of mercenary foreigners and apos- tate natives, do. Now, sir, the whole story is a premeditated falsehood. The National Guard has received no orders to bein readiness for Monday, or any other day. And asto the mercenary foreigners, there are but sevew persona of foreign birth on the roll of the Company, numbering 58 men. In regard to the political complexion of the Company, I respectfully refer you to some of its members, who are candidates on the Amer- ican ticket for the City Councils. James A.

The Unson argues that the true and only safe policy for the Democratic party on the slavery question is that of rigid adherence to non-Intervention, as it is impossible that the North and South can even agree upon it. The Intelligencer announces that Mr. Perry Charge @’Affairs pro tem at Madrid, has ob tained an entire satisfactory settlement of the El Dorado case and that of the Vice Consul st Sagaa Le Grande; and also that M. Doe Cucta, the Spanish Minister in Washington, is about to return home at his own request, being opposed to the party now in power in Spain. WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. A Fraudulent Publication —Proofs are ac- cumulating from day to day of the base means by which the base ends of Know Nothingism are attempted tobe attained. The persons usurping without a show of right the title of the Board of Managers of the Washington National Monument Society, in their address to the people of the United States, as pub lished and re-published in their Organ for the last four weeks, contains the following Paragraph : “A new Board of Managers have now been appointed. We come into cflice under favor- able auspices, and well-founded hones of means to proseoute the work. Since our elec- tion, on the 22d February last, we have not heemidle. Our arrangements have been be- an, and are now in . All causes of ‘aueceate between us and the Old Board have, as we hope, been removed, and we will imme- diately go to-work.”” The assertion contained in the last sentence cf that paragraph, unequivocally conveying the idea that they and the only true and gen- uine board of managers had come to an un- derstanding whereby their due election and authority as. board were acknowledged or acquiesced in by tho true board, is « palpable falsehood; the falsehood of it is piain and manifest on the face of every communication between the two parties; on the face of the resolutions published in the papers of this city, with the address of the true board, Those resolutions, the icstant they were pazsed, were communicated to the persons so usurping the title of managers; and:those who read the news- papers havo seen how unequivosally and em. phatically they denounce the illegality and un- fairness of the pretended election on the 22d of February last, and repudiate the auther- ity attempted to be set up under it. So far from such denunciation and repadia- tion having been recalled or in any degree modified, the true and only board of man. agers, in their very /2st communication to the board of false claimants (which was in answer to certain requisitions from the latter) ex- Pressly referred to the resolutions denying ad repudiating their authority to intervene ‘ta any of the society’s affairs. Bat the turpitude of this falsehood does not end here. The disengenuous and mean at. tempt to shield i: from detection and exposure is no less worthy of genera! abhorerce. The sentence containing the falsehood is found enly in the Orzan’s edition; but is wholly omitted in the edition published in the Ints/- figencer. The policy and canning cf this do ceitful variance between the two editions is apparentezough. Thecalculation was founded on the very evident and string probability that the National Intelligencer’s edition would first meet the eyesof those who coald at once detect, and would necessarily donounce and expose the falsehood as goom a2 its ex- isterse chould be made known to them; and that having ence read the acdress in that paper, and wholly unsuspicious of the truth, they would not think of looking after it in the Organ. They have succeeded, however, in merely delaying detection—the work of jus tice bas been retarded, but has at/ast reached its goal. This is all of a piece with the forgery and perjury, by which the public were mado to believe for a few days the statemert ‘hs! sixty Kuow Nothing workmen had been discharged from the Gosport Navy Yard.

It always tells the Truth —our ingenuous, and trathful neighbor, it seems, is quite as near the mark in accounting for the winnings of its coterie in the late Virginia election, as it was in its statemerts on whieh that precious baad won so much. The Southside Democrat spikes its “ten- thousand-foreign-votes’”’ excuse, by printing to the census of the State, wherein it will be ‘pereeived that there are but 7,000 foreign- borm persons in Virginia—men, women, and children.

An Agent’s Compensation.— During the lifetime of a soldier, a bounty land warrant was iesued on bis application, and delivered to an agent in this city who was duly empow- ered by the soldier to receive itforhim. After the soldier’s death, a dispute arose between his heirs and the egent in possession of the arrant a8 to the fee he was entitled to re- ceive for his servicez, and the heirs demand the issue of a new warrant in the name. Held that the issue of the warrant to the soldier during hia life, and its delivery to the agent selected and authorized by him to receive it, had exhausted the powers of the office in the premises, and that the measure ef compensa- tion to the agent was a matter of private con- cern beyoni the jurisdiction of the Depazt- ment, and in which ii ognnot interfere. The Rebscce Ehoal Beacon, on the Fleriis Coast —We hear that the severe gale on the Florida, of the 17th ult., swopt awsy all the preparations that had been made for the eree- tiom of the beacon named above, which wiil cause a month’s delay of the completion of that work, and some additional expense. Light-house Keepers Appointed. — Josiah Tobey has been appointed keeper of the light- houze at Boon Island, Maine, at $600, vice George Bowden, removed. Hiram Tobey and Charies. H. Tobey have been appointed assistant keepers of the same light, at $300 per annum, vice Christopher C. Litti¢field and George @. Bowden. Under Invoicing.—Proceedings have been commenced against the importers of three cases of magnificent embroidered goods which came over in the last trip of the steamship America. They were seized by the reve- nue officersof Boston for a violation of the 66th section of the act of March 2, 1799. Their appraised value is $1,473, while they were invoiced as worth $865. The Naturalized Voters’ Question.—The Cireuit Court for the District of Columbia, Judges Morsell and Danlap presiding, this morning decided that persons who have re- stded in this corporation for a yoar, and have been naturalised since December last, have the right to vote in the election to-day; but that the lists having passed out of the hands of the corporation Register inte those of the judges of the elestion at the several voting Places, who are themzelves quasi judicial offi- cers, they (the Circuit Court) have not power to issue the mandamus to compel the election boards to azcord to such citizens their rights. Such citizens should, by all means, offer their votes, and if refused they have a remedy in euits at law against those depriving them of what the Cireuit Court decides to be their rights. Besides, if they offer them, they must be counted by the revision power in deciding the general result. The Know Nothing judges are even refusing the votes of citizens naturalized on the 8th of Jane, 1854, on the ground that they have not been citizens for one year. The decision above mentioned shows that they sre depriving such citizens of their rights, and they will of course be sued by all such persons to-morrow. If the illegal votes they are receiving on their own side, and the legal votes they are reject- ing on ours, vary the result in any case, their illegal action will of course be appealed from, and set aside by the Circuit Court.
