Charles Sumner, in the Cooper Institute—ad- mmission 25 cents—‘‘the advertised subject of which ‘was ‘The Republican Party, its Origin, Neces- sity, and Purposes;’ but the real object of which ‘was to prove the immense benefits which would enure to ‘the cause of universs! freedom’ were Abram Lincoln elected President of the United ‘States. and were ‘the slave oligarchy,’ by which Mr. Sumner meant eight millions of his fellow- citizens, utterly and hopelessly ‘prostrated.’”” ‘The Intelligencer quotes from the New York World, (Lincoln paper,) and from the Frankfort wpeech of Mr. Breckinridge, to show that there is ‘but little practical difference between the Repub- lican and Democratic platforms, and then moral- ‘ses a8 follows “Thus it is that we have the curious spectacle of two parties arrayed against each other in re- Ten less an’ ism on @ mere abstraction, while they both join in denouncing the Constitutional Union party, which proposes to act befere the election on precisely the same principles as the Democracy and Republicans expect do after that event, for the want, on the part of the latter two, of rene else which In the nature of things it will be possible for them to do ” UP The New York Journal of Commerce has declared {ts intention tesupport Breckinridge and Lane.

Hyexta Horet, Orn Pornt Comrorr, July 11, 1860. In my last letter from this delightful retreat I stated that about three hundred visitors bad al- ready gathered at :t, and I ventured to predict that. In a few days, the number would be doubled. The préliction has been more than veritied; for there are now here between seven bt bundred persons, from all sections of thé Union. 1 have heard the number estimated 2s high as one thousand, but do not suppose there are so many. But ‘they come, they come. and still they come;” the departures of the day being fully offsetted by fresh arrivals Among the visitors | find several members of Congress, in the number Mr. Stevenson, of Ken- be i Mr. Stout, of Oregon, and Mr’ Scott, of California. Also, sundry thembers of the Legis- lature of Virginia, pra arco Mr. Christian, of A . Mr. Collier, of Petersburg, Dr. Finney, of Senate; and there are others, whose names I bave not learned. Governor Letcher and family will be here to-morrow, with a large party from Richmond. One need not be surprised at the Increasing pea of this famous summer resort; for few f any of the watering places of the country can successfully compete with it in point of attraction. Besides total exemption from disease—a bappy consciousness—there is some pleasant engagement for every one, and the living 1s incomparable N inferior enters into the bill of fare, and the establistment is conducted, in or respect, in an unexceptionable manner. Mr. Willard. name well known io successful hoteling—has proved himself fully worthy of “his illustrious essor,”’ keeping the establishment fully up its former re, ition, and giving entire satis faction to the throng of guests about him. All the establishment wants is more room—enlarged accommodations. Let the foro go to work immediately on the close of the season, and erect additional buildings. A canoe regatta comes off on Saturday next, from which much sport ts ex- pected. Rir-Raps. Tur Execution or Hicks.—The extreme sen- tence of the law was executed upon Albert W.

Charles Sumner has recently opened the cam- paign in New York on behalf of the Republican party by a speech in the Hall of the Cooper In- stitute. That Mr. Sumner should bave been se- lected by the Republican party managers to that end, is in itself significant that they do mot pro- Pese to mince the tenets of their faith in the con- duct of thelr canvass. The attendance was im- mense, and the doctrines of the speech were quite up, in principle, to thoge of the recent celebra- tion of the Fourth of July at North Elba, over the grave of old John Brown. Wendell Phillips himself never preached more unadulterated abolitionism: nor did his followers ever cheer such sentiments more enthusiastically than they were cheered on the night of Wednesday last in the Cooper Institute bali, when proceeding from the lips of Senator Sumner; not by an {rresponsi- ble rabble merely, but by nearly every man of pretension to position, character and influence in New York city, who professes to be identified with the Republican party. The condition of the Democratic and Union parties in the Empire State is, doubtless, at the bottom of the abandon with which the cloven foot of hostility to the maintenance of the Consti- tation as the law of the land, was there put for- ward. Greeley & Co. have been arguing that be- cause an effort is being made throughout the South bythe Douglas managers, to organize a party in sympathy with the aims and ideas of their (Republican) party, therefore, it is impossi- ble that the South will unite in her own defense, on the election of a President proposing to ad- minister the Government upon the principles—so far as the rights of the slaveholding States are concerned—laid down in this speech of Mr. Sumuer. Up to this time the Star has been correct in almost its every prognostication concerning the Political future; and now it takes occasion to say that if the friends of Lincoln at the North con- tinue their canvass as thus begun by Mr Sumner, they will pesitively insure the settlement of the slavery question ere Lincoln wields the Govern- ment of the United States as at present consti- tuted, upon a basis satisfactory to those whose constitutional rights are proposed to be dealt with by the Lincola administration upon the doctrines of the Massachusetts Senators’s Union ‘splitting’ Speech. He who persuades bimself that the effort to generate a semi-abolition party in the South for the benefit of Mr. Douglas wil! prevent the whole people identified, directly or indirectly, with the institution of African slavery in this country, from uniting to defend the South and the Union, at all hazards, from the flagrantly pal- pable revolution in the government which Mr Sumner virtually proposes as the result of Lin- coln’s election, egregiously deceives bimscif The question involved is not one of mere policy, or of mere party interest; but, ratber, that of an entire subversion of the Government of the United States as originally formed; and the substitution in its stead of another government, by means of “construction,” as different from it as that of Louis Napoleon. Of a government to which the South could give its consent about as safely as to ® proposition to install William Lloyd Garrison into a dictatorship over the sovereign States of the existing Confederacy, with the understanding that he may administer such clauses of the original Conatitution as hs believes to be of binding force, according to has construction of them on the cne hand—and may scout the obligations of such of its clauses as he holds (in common with Senator Sumner) to be but ‘‘covenants with hell.” A Mistaxe Correcdep—A Washington cor- respondent (per telegr|ph) of the New York Heraid characterizes the trial of the Hon. William Cullom, late Clerk of the House of Representa- tives, for malfeasance in olfice, asa Prosecution on the partef the Democratic party, on account of Mr. C.’s opposition sentiment. This is a sweeping mistake. Neither the Democratic party nor the Democratic National Administration have had anything whatever to do with it from begin- ing toend. It is well known here to have grown out of a personal quarrel between Mr. Cullom and Mr. John C. Rives, the real prosecutor, over @ question arising between them concerning the purchase of certain books ordered by Congress which Rives had for sale, and which Cullom chose to purchase of some one else—or out of some such matter. Charges and counter-charges were brought to the notice of several grand juries for this county, each seeking to get the other ir- dicted. If we mistake not, two consecutive grand juries. seeing through the gist of the affair, refused to indict either. A third, however, bya tight squeeze, did indict Cullom ; returning four bills against him. One of these indictments, on being tried on the day before yesterday, resulted in the prompt acquittal of Mr.C.; there being lit- erally not the slightest atom of evidence produ- cable in open court tending to substantiate the truth of its counts against bim. The District Attorney thereupon elected to abandon two of the remaining three indictments against General Cullom, and to try the other in December next. It is generally thought here that this is the last that the public will ever hear of that indictment before the courts of this District. Rumor says that Cullom, on the close of these cases, designs suing bis antagonist for malicious prosecution, &c. The affair between them, the end of which has evidently not been reached yet bya long way, will probably prove a profitable plumb for the lawyers; and, if also resulting in an entire change of the system of publishing the debates of Congress, it will hereafter save millions annu- ally to the national treasury, and cut off the real root of nearly all the corrupt and Inexcusably ex- travagant legislation of the Congress of the United States—a most desirable consu:nmation indeed. eis ees SecretaRy of Wak AND THE Aqvepvct — The duties of the Secretary of War press so heavily upon nim, that in order properly to dis- charge them, he bas been obliged, for the pres- ent at least, to abandon the idea of retreating for a brief period to Old Point, for Purposes of reiax- ation, notwithstanding the warm weather and condition of his health call for such relief. Nothing definite has as yet been decided upon relative to the water works; but it is safe to assume that the honorable Secretary, who bas so often proved bis interest in the District, will now do whatever he can consistently to promet: this great work, in which all our citizens have so deep a concern. ee Tue Pension Orrice.—We are requested to state that though the Pension Bureau has been removed from Winder’s Building, to the north wing of the Patent Office, and the clerks assigned their various positions in the same, the office is not yet prepared for the transaction of business, inasmuch as the papers belonging to the depart- ment have not been properly arranged. —_>—__ Arroixrments Convigmxp.—James L.
