)¥ EVENING STAR. . SS ee WASHING''ON OITY: SATURDAY .. -September 18, 1858, Notice.—Many accounts due the Star office by persons in Maryland have been placed in the hands of Mr. W. C. Lipscomb, for collection, who is authorized to collect and receipt for those of its bills he may present to our debtors. oo SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union notes that the f-undations of the Opposition have been swept away by the swift current of events; that Corwin replaces Gid- dings, in Ohig, and Gerrit Smith proves formid- able to Seward, in New York. It continues: “The truth is more than evident, the Opposi- tion have ne ground upon which they can stand "They cannot and dare not present an issue to the Democracy. We submit to the fair judgment of the country, if the Republicans are net now sub- stati wholly on the difficulties which have prevailed in our own ranks? All their present strength ix derived from our weakuess. Those who abandoned the Democracy last winter have served the cause of the Opposition, have galvan- ized for the moment the dead carcass of Aboli- tionism ; but it is only another trial which our invincible forces are compelled to make before they sball achieve their greatest victory—the utter subjngation and annihilation of Sectionalism tn the United States.’* The Iutel/:eencer, under the caption “The Monroe Doctrine.’’ gives its own idea of the origin of that doctrine, and subjoins a protest against the theories it is made to fatherin these times. ese &P Joe Shillington sends us Graham's Maza- zine for September, a fine number, beautifully il- dastrated ; as also Herper’s Magazine for the same month. W D Shepherd, Seventh street, likewise sends us Harper for September. Joux Jay axo Roseat R_ Livincston —We are indebted to the publishers, who send us, through Mr. James Carter, their Washington City Agent, for parts 31 and 22 of the “Life and ‘Times of Waskington,” by J. F. Schroeder, D. D., illustrated by Chappel. New York: Pub- lished by Johnson, Fry & Company, 27 Beekman Street. These numbers of this valuable and popular work are illustrated with portraits of John Jay and Robert R. Livingston, which as specimens of the engraver's art reflect infinite credit upon Mr. Chappel. They are peculiarly valuable, in- asmuch as elsewhere we know not where good portraits of these two distinguished Americans of a past generation are to be obtained at reason- able cost. Dee. —A duel took place at the Fairfield race course, Richmond, Va., on Friday morning, » tween O. Jennings Wise, of the Enquirer. Hon. Sherrard Clemens, of Wheelirpg. Four shots were exchanged when Mr. Clemens fell, Laving received a ball in the thigh. The wound ix not considered a dangerous one. ‘The cause of the duel was an article in the Enquirer charging Mr. Clemens as being guiity of ‘an act of gross treachery towards Judze Brockenbrough, perpe- tfated under the guise of personal and political friendship,”’ and “abusing the columns of the Enquirer by requesting and obtaininy the inser- tion of these same willful misrepresentations.”’ Mr. Clemens is the present member of Congress from the Wheeling district. ee eed The American Treaty with China. The following, according to the Friend of China, are the principal provisions of the Ameri- can treaty, signed on the Isth of June, at Tien- tsin, by Mr. Reed ou the one part, and by Kwei- Mang and Hwasbana on the other. ‘The treaty comprises twenty-nine articles, some of which repeat the stipulations of the vld. treaty Article 1 provides for general peace, and a stipulation for good ottices of the United States in case of difficulty with other ers.

His letter bears date at Fort Laramie, Aug. 22d: “Our amiable Secretary of War seems to feel under obligations to provide, im some form or other, for all the inal ts of the Old Domin- fon. Some of us recollect the published evidence in the Fort Snelling case, in which the Secretary invites a friend in Virginia to come up, that he has something for him. Two more instances of his active interest in the welfare of the sons of his native state have come tolight. A couple of youn Virginians—officers of the army—went tom Fort Leavenworth last November on leave of absence till the first of April. Several weeks before this latter date, their regiment, the fourth Artillery, was ordered to prepare for a march to- ward Utah, bat as this service did not suit the inclinations of the young gentlemen referred to, one of them (the son of an eminent lawyer in Bath county,) was put on the Coast Survey. The other (a son of Mr. Goode, M. C ) not having re- ceived a scientific education, could not thus be rovided for; he overstayed bis leave and sent Bis resignation to the War Department; but his er either previously or subsequently arranged mi: Mr. Floyd to have the resignation refused, and his son was put on the recruiting service at his place of residence, an obscure village in Mecklengurg county, where his office is likely to be a sinecure.’’ First Lieut. J. T. Goode, 4th artillery, was granted leave of absence for sixty days by the commander of the troops in Kansas, on the 15th of November last. The General-in-chief extended this until March 20th, 1358. At the expiration of this period, Lieut. G. was unable to report at his station, being confined to his bed by severo illness. Finding that he did not regain his health-as rapidly as was anticipated, and that considerable time must elapse beforo he would be fit for service with his company, then about to undertake a march of several hundred miles, he tendered the resignation of his commission. This the Secretary of War declined accepting, and directed, instead, that Lieut. @. be placed temporarily on the recruit- ing service. As all the prominent recruiting stations wore already oceupied, this officer was sent to Staunton, Va., (not the town of his res- dence, as alleged,) where it was supposed a considerable number of good recruits could be obtained. First Lieut. Wm. R. Terrill, 4th artillery, is supposed to be the other officer alluded to in the above excerpt. Early in March last, an officer of the army, who had for some years been attached to the Coast Survey, was re- lieved therefrom, and Lieut. Terrill, thon on leave of absence, was selected as his successor, at the request of Prof. Bache, Superintendent of the Coast Survey. Lieut. T.’s position on the Army Register, and the state of his com- pany respecting its officers, rendered him oli- gible for the Coast Survey duty, under the rules of the War Department applicable, and itis believed that no officer of the army was more available fur the service. Thus, it will be perceived, that the corres- pondent of the Post has misrepresented and misconstrued unexceptionable actions, in order to gain opportunity to vent his spleen on a prominent Government officer. Navat Ixteviigexce. —The Secretary of the Navy has received despatches from Com- modore Lavalette, dated on board the U.S. steamer Wabash, at Gibraltar, August 21st, which port was reached in 25 days after leav- ing Key West, by making use of the steam engines during nine days. Com. L. reports all on board well, and states that the vesscl had been detained in quarantine, and he has found it necessary to proceed to Marseilles to procure 2 pratique, a8 one can be obtained there sooner than at Gibraltar. The pratique, we believe, is a clearance from quarantine regulations. ile was taking coal and water on board, and would start for Marseilles on the following day. The Wabash parted company with the Mace- donian on the 22d of July, the day the vessuls left Key West, and the latter was not expected to reach Gibraltar before the latter part of August. The Macedonian will proceed to Gib- raltar without delay, and thence go to the coast of Syria, after replenishing her stores at Spezzia. There are also despatches received from Captain Levy, of the Macedonian, dated July 20th, at sea, long. 39 deg. 4 min. north, and Jat. 22 deg. 10 min. west. All were well. Navan Orpens.—Orders to the following effect have been issued by the Navy Depart- ment : Commander Henry H. Bell, to be light house inspector for New York district, vice Com- mander McKinstry, detached. Commander Chas. Stedman#detached from the Philadelphia light house district, and or- dered to command the brig Dolphin, and Com- mander Stellwagon to supply his place as light house inspector. Lieut. D. R. Lambert, detached from the receiving ship at New York, and ordered to the Cyane, and Lieut. Milton Haxton to eup- ply his place on the receiving ship. Lieut. J. Pembroke, to be light house in- spector for Charleston district, vice T. T. Hun- ter detached. Surgeon J. W. Kellogg, ordered to the Navy Yard at Norfolk, vice James Cornick, ordered to the Ruanoke as ficet Surgeun for the Home Squadron. Surgeon M. G. Dulaney, detached on the lat of October next from the Navy Yard at Ports- mouth, N. H., and Surgeon A. A. Henderson ordered to relieve him. Lieut. RK. L. Law, ordered to the Naval Acadewy. ~ Kixe Georog County Rospzry Ca The Star, a few days since, contained the par- tial account of the trial of some parties at King George County Court, Virginia, for the robbery of a seine, &e. A correspondent at that point furnishes us the following account of the result of those proceedings : Kine Gxoree, (Va.,) Sept. 16, 1558. A nolle prosequi was entered for Pesce’ and he was used as a witness for the Commonwealth. Upon bis testimony Chas. Van Skiver and John A. Speiden were acquitted. There was general gratification at the result, growing out of the sympathy excited by the presence of Speiden’s mother. An effort will be made to get old Van Skiver reprieved, or have his term in the peni- tentiary shortened. By the kindnessof a gentte- man of the county, in affording a conveyance, the unfortunate party reached Fredericksbur, the night of the trial, and went on in the train ot cars immediately, —~ Triau or Orpyance.—At the Navy Yard yesterday, trials were made of the heavy ten ineh gun about to be placed on board the steamer Water Witch, and of a Dablgreen twenty-four pounder, which was in one of the boats of the Fulton. The experimentsin either case were entirely satisfactory. The guns were fired several times successively. The guns intended for these two steamers will all be shipped in a few days. Maixe Exection.—We learn, by a gentle- man direct from Maine, who participated ac- tively in the recent canvass, that Col. John- son, Democrat, is certainly elected by 22 ma- dority. This distriet, two years ago, if we recollect rightly, gave the present Republican member, some twenty-two hundred majority. Patests To ne Isscen.—The General Land Office is making preparation for the speedy issuing of patents for the Kansas trust lands ; and, also, for the donation lands in Washing ton ond Oregon Territories, provided for by the act of 1850, and acts amendatory thereto. The arrangements will be completed in a few days, ‘Tue Wearsen.—The following report of the weather for this morning is made from the Morse Telegraph line té the Smithsonian Institution.
