EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON OITY: BSATURDAY.............Nevember 13 1858. LSS aes SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union says: 4 “ Until a few weeks ago, the New York Tri une had been ed for well nigh a twelve- Month in urging toleration, concession, and alli- wnce between all the different factions which were hostile to the Democratic party and Admin- Asfration. Victory having been won by the union the factions, the Tribune signalizes the first ‘weeks after its achievement bya return to its old abolitionism. Seven devils seem now to have entered into its house, where there was but one Defore, and its last state is worse than the first. From being the ally of the Richmond Whig and the panegyrist of Senator Crittenden and Bell, it has relapsed again into its wonted hatred of the South, returning like the sow to ber mire, and the dog to its vomit. “Phe extreme anti-slavery programme an- nounced by Mr. Seward at Rochester did not pro- claim the mere individual resolution of the speak- er, but the concerted purpose of the entire sec- tonal party of which he is the leeder ” Further, the Union thinks, that from recent Indications of public sentiment in England, it Would seem that the movement in bebalf of parliamentary reform had taken anew impulse; and as one of those indisations it publishes the speech of Mr. Bright. The Jntelitgencer comments upon the recent speeches of Mr. Seward, saying : “ Withont ventarin; elaborate analysis and review 0; holding States.” Yet the Intelligencer apologises for the in- tense abolitionism of this speech as gently as “‘a@ sucking dove; ’ and, after all, docs not ap- pear to be able to find much reprehensible in it. So they go. [7 Favorable accounts continue to be received from the Pike’s Peak gold region. Seven men of the Georgia company tcok out $500 in 5 days. ae ee nD, Carrure oF 4 Staver —The stexmship Black Warrior arrived at New Orieans on Saturday bringing information from Havana that the bark Vewus, formerly under the Mexican flax, was cap- tured with nearly six hundred hegroes on board, ff the Moro, by a Spanish war steamer. Mx. Evexert any tux Mount Vernon Fuxp Mr. Bonner, the enterprising publisher of the New York Ledger, bas proposed to Mr. Everett to contribute one original article per week for one year on the consideration of Mr. Bonner paying ten thousand dollars tothe Mount Vernon Fuad. Mr. Everett has accepted the proposition. New Mexico.—Later advices from Santa Fe hhave been received at St. Louis. Col. Miles had Bnotber encounter with the Navejos, ten of whom Were killed. Eighty horses and 6,500 sheep were captured. Kit Carson, with a band of Utahs, passed through Santa Fe on his way to fight the Navajos. The Mohave Indians had attacked an emigrant train while crossing the Colorado, killing three men, two women, and four children. 17 The consumption of tobacco in France in- ‘creases enormously. In the last years of the first Empire the sales brought, on average, a net an- nual revenue to the tgeasury of the Sate of 26 millions of francs. (The whole trade ia tobacco, snuff, cigars and pipes, in France, is in the hands ofthe government.) In 1520, the Produce of sales ‘Was 42 millions; in 1841, 72 millions; in 1556, 121 millions. Each inhabitant in 1520 consumed in ‘the year 352 grammes (500 to the pound;) in i811, 60 grammes; in 1556, 706 grammes. Axgsox no Caime.—Judge Metcaif, of Staten Is- land, has rendered his decision inthe cases of Ray ‘Tompkins aud John C. Thompson, charged with wrson. He held that the Castleton Beard ef Health was a legally constituted body, acting in judicial capacity, when it declared tuat the Qj uar- antine Hospitals were a nuisance; that the Board hhad a right to so declare them, and that the citi- ‘zens of the town acting under the instructions of this judicial body, were justided in destroying the Hospitals and abating the nuisance. Accord- dng to this doctrine it is only necessarytto cet some municipal or legislative body to declare any thing a nuisance, and a mob may forthwith ‘undertake its abatement by force or fire. A prin- ciple more dangerous could scarcely be estab- dished. Executios of Rogers, the Bey-Murderer. James Rogers, who was convicted and seu- tenced to die for murdering Swanston, in October, 1857,was hung on Friday morning, in a courtw y ‘wt the City Prison, New York, at 11; o’clock THE MURDER. It was In Seventeenth street, near Eighth ave- nue, that Rogers met his two companions, on the evening of the I7th of October. They walked together for some time, stopping repeatedly at the saloons to drink. Rum soon made the youth- ful murderer reckless. Passing a fruit stand, be demanded an apple of the boy in charge, and upon his refusal assaulted him with a drawn knife. ‘The boy escaped into a storeclose at hand, the three young men continued their wale up Teath avenue Near the corner of Twentieth street they stopped at another saloon, where they drank freely. As they came out, one of them, seeing a person go by whom he thought he ree- ognized. exclaimed, “‘ There goes a man that | ‘want to whip,”’ and hastened forward. His com- panions kept pace with him as he went. It was now about 10 o’clock at night The deceased, John Swanston had gone out with bis wife to do some marketing for Sunday, and the two were on their way homeward, when the three youug men overtook them Rodgers car- ried arms a-kimbo, so that one elbow hit Swanston violently as he went bybim.

The shrieks of his wife alarmed the neighborhood; a crowd gathered at the spot, but it was too late. The unfortunate == breathing his last, and the assailants on eee af pomp PENALTY. - riday, ers suffered the punishment due bis crime. He was dressed in Agrees suit, without coat or vest. On his neck was the fatal Roose, and 4 yellow cross edorned his breast. His face was pale, and its expression, together with his long bair, gave him a very girlish ap- peatance. He knelt beneath the fatal bexm, and Nilligan proceeded to read the prayers. The condemned youtb prayed silently all the time, Kissing the crucifix which he held in bis bands. The prisoners in the celis above had prepared themselves with bits of looking-glass, and their hands could be seen thrust out from the windows above, in the effort tocatch the reflection from the scaffold. a) At thirty-seven minutes past eleven the re- ligious services were concluded ; the clergymen, one by one, shook bands with Rodgers and bade bim farewell. The Sheriff now approached him and spoke in a low tone, to which he replied in an audible voice. That officer ste ped back- ‘ward, and the hangman begun bis oltice. Officer Simpson spzedily attached the noose to the rope which dangled above the prisoner's Ne sign of flinching appeared, except a slight tremor evidently produced by the chilli- ness of the air.

At thirty-eight minutes Past eleven the signal ‘was gi be beavy round of the batchet was heard inside the inclosure at the western end of the scaffoid, and the body of the prisoner was dangling in the air about three fet from the ground.

The knot came in contact with the nape of the neck, mid- way between the ears. orseveral minutes the body swayed to and fro, and then all became still.

Ctosz or raz Ixpiay War.—The War De- partment is in receipt of despatches from Gen. Nicaragua.—lIt is clear, from recent official and other publications in French and English newspapers, and from the late maneuvers of Lord Napier, that, though not making the pro- test France and England were erroneously represented to have sent to the State Depari- ined, if nence alto~ gether from the Isthmus of Nicaragua, in com- pliance with the avowed wishes of Martinez and the feeble Camarilla by whom that individual is surrounded. The latter have been playing of late to secure French governmental backing for the Belly contract, we believe without suc- cess, so far; though, if French capitalists take hold of Belly’s scheme, we doubt not they will obtain it, provided France believes that this Government will not promptly enforce the re- turn of the original Cass-Irisarri treaty, upon the consummation of which the question of the success of its (our) Central American policy rand his Government at home, encouraged by the suc- cess up to this time of the plots of Vanderbilt to prevent the opening of the Nicaragua route to California, are just now making strenuous efforts to obtain two treaties from Nicaragua in advance of the return of the Cass-Irisarri treaty, through the terms of which it will doubtless be stipulated that England shall for- ever be as potent on that important line of communication between the Atlantic and Pa- cific portions of the American Confederacy, as up to some time since in the Musquito-country As a matter of course, this Government will not permit the intrigues of Napier in thismat ter to succeed, however pertinaciously he may Because, to do so, would be quietly to resign all in that portion of Cen- tral America, which it hes sought, for years The assurance to ited States and to all the rest of the civilized world, of an isthmus tran- sit route under American auspices to and from the Pacific, entirely safe and free under any possible condition of Central American or any other governmental affairs. We are no believ- ers that because Lord Napier talks to “‘ Wash- ington correspondents’’ of the determination of his Government to land troops in Nicaragua, nominally to seize those England’s officers may choose to designate as filibusters, (but really to prevent the return of the Cass-[risarri treaty, until Sir William Gore Ousley can obtain from Martinez & Co. the virtual surrender of the control of the transit route to England) there- fore his Government will be foolish enough toattempt any such game, in the present temper of the American people with reforence to Eng- lish interference against American rights and While we have steadily set our face against filibustering, we are, and ever have been as much opposed to the idea that England may, with impunity, seize and hold, or expel Amer- icans from any portion of this continent, under the allegation that they arc bent on filibuster- ing. To admit her claim of right so to do, un- der the pretext of her alleged right to protect any government or party in Centrai America, would be to surrender at once into her hands the entire control of that portion of the globe; because—those who know her history know well—she would instantly use Ler inilitary and naval power, under the pretence of check- ing and punishing American filibusters, to fur- ther her own commercial and political ends in Central America, by pretending to regard all Americans aiming to settle there, whoze pres- ence might not be likely to advance her inter- Besides, England is foreclosed from any such interference in Central American affairs by the plain letter of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, un- der the provisions ot which she solemnly stip- ulates never to land troops of any description in Nicaragua to interfere upon any zuch ac- for which Lord Napier now al- leges to various correspondents of distant news- papers—the tools with which he is just now working, in great part, in his efforts to attect the policy of this Government—tbat he is about He dis- claims the right to interfere on the sea with American ships carrying Americans to Nica- ernment will be landed from England's ships, to keep in power the present government of Nicaragua until it grants the concessionz to England to be involved in the two treatics he insists that England shall be permitted to achieve ere his Government will permit the Cass-Irieseri treaty to be returned to Wash- We do not believe Lord Napier ig in earnest in these threats against the rights and interests of the United States; because to entertain that opinion, would be neither more nor less than to credit England with the fixed determi- Ifa force of her marines dare to lay a finger on any American emigrants into Nicaragua, we care not whom they may be, fifty thousand of our countrymen will go to their rescue within This Government is competent to the maing tenance of the integrity of its neutrality law, without English interference, on sea or land. All know well its determination to enforce its strictest letter; but it is equally clear that it will not invent constructive violations of that or any other law of this land, to accommodate England's purpose of forever hereafter exclu- ding American influence from the Isthmus of Nicaragua, however Lord Napier may play to Seizure or a Staver.—The Navy Depart. ment is in receipt of dispatches from Comman- fier Thomas W. Brent, of the U. S. ship of war Marion, dated off Mayumba, southwest coast of Africa, September 8, 1858, from which we make “1 have the honor to inform you that on this ketch, or yacht, from Havana bound to the river Yaive, or Congo, and that 1 , in my opinion, emple evidence to seizure as a vessel engaged in the A. and a prize crew. to proceed to Charleston, S.

Her Commander asks for the return of Lieut. Stone and the prize crew, as the vessel is in want of both officers and men. The above despatches were acoompanied by a letter from Lieut. Stone, dated at Charles- ton, 8. C., November 11, announcing his ar- rival there with the prize vessel, in sixty-two Clark, enveloping a report of Col. Wright, whose operations against the Indians in Wash- ington and Oregon Territories have been noted atiength in the Svar. communications is, that after the battle of Four Lakes, in which the Indians experienced such an overwhelming defeat, Col. Wright es- tablished his camp near the scene of the unfor- tunete affair of Col. Steptoe chiefs of the Spokanes, Cecur d’Alenes, and the hostile portionof the Nez Percez, and other smaller tribes that had taken up arms against the United States, came into camp and made overtures of paace. ‘They acknowledged themselves defeated, and gave hostages, in the form of property, for their fature good conduct, and finally a treaty of peace was concluded with them. bas vers Ven San inte} pai bar. men ing com cisco.

H. was to proceed immediately to his command, and General Clark will rem charge of the South Department of the Pacific. The close of this war at such an early day, re- flects great credit on the energetic measures by General Clark and his subordinates, and is contrary to expectations generally. A Patest Case.—Commissioner Holt has been engaged for come weeks past in investi- gating a contested patent case, the parties to which were Messrs. Savany and Bernard Luath. The invention in dispute is one for rolling cold iron by a method which is said to condense the fibres of the metal, and render the mass stronger and stiffer. In other words, the strength of the metal is compressed into a smaller compass, and said to be greatly improved in quality. The decision was given in favor of Luath, to whom the patent will issue.
