The Norfolk jeraid evidently did not regard the affair as a matter of mvonsbine, and says that since Friday Mclent testimouy bas been elicited which fully ustifies the strict police surveillance which has instituted in the excited district. A number of arrests of negroes have been made. Two free megtoes were spprehended, one of whom made some revelations, which, though startli , were highly improbable, and implicated two ne- roes residing in thi ie in the plot, who were mimediately {mpri by our vigilant Mayor for exutnindtion The whole affair as yet is in- volved in mystery, and some are of opinion that it was merely intended to get up a stampede for the benefit of the underground railroad. Nearly all of the negroes on two or three of the planta- tions on bearing whet was going on took to the onl more from fright, probably, than with any mischievous intent A cousiderable patrol force is scouring the woods in pursuit of the fugitives. Whatever aiarm was at first experienced has sub- sided, and the county Is all quiet. The Norfolk Day Book of Monday evening says: Our reporter, who has been among the peo- le of the two counties for two or three days, fringe the intelligence of the arrest of six more negroes on Saturday night, all of whom were duly installed in secure quarters in the Ports- mouth jail. Besides the above mentioned six negroes. a free negro came down with one of patrol, and gave the information that the no- pel aa Dick Ryen had said to him that unless he joiued them on the 7th of October, he would be the first man killed He also gave information enough to convince the patrol that Dick Ryan was the chief or ruling spirit in the cuntemplated outbreak. He also intimated that he knew where Dick was concealed, and would conduct the patrol to the spot. A number of gentlemen accordingly left yesterday afternoon with the full determination of taking the said Dick Ryan either dead or alive. The excitement in the neighborhood of Great Bri continues, and it is said that two or three red men had been detailed todo patro! duty, with instructions to capture the said Dick Ryan at all hazards, and to arrest any others who were implicated. The Wise Dragoons were also di- motil a certain time; after which, were to _— heap in Beas led any call that might be made upon them. greatest ible dais is manifested to arrest all whoarein eywer concerned in the matter, and there is little doubt but the strictest search will be continued un il this is effected.

It ts said that the negroes now in Princes Anne jail will be examined on Thursday.

A man-worship which pays unbe- coming homage to the representative of a foreign wer, at the cost of disrespect to the symbols of Holy Sacr«ment, is neit! becoming to man, nor respectful to God.

The “ins” evidently felt awfully last night; while the “outs’’ wore short countenances. The of a turn-and-turn-about time on’t, not far ahead, which was the quod erat demonstrandum drawn from the returns received from Pennsylvania, seemed especialiy distasteful to those in office who have been the most vehement adberents of the doctrine that ‘to the victors belong the spoils” —a doctrine ever distasteful tous. Unfortunately for those on the anti-Republican side who regard politics as being little else save a scramble for spoils, the Republican Association of this city is said to have closed its books on Thursday night last. We regret that we have no consolation whatever to offer them; as with Pennsylvania gone for the Republicans, we find it impossible to figure out any theory concerning the result of the election next month, that promises a hope that Lincoln may not be elected by the people sce!

History tells us that the most frantic passions mav be excited by party colors, and those who have beard of the Blue and Green factions under the Byzantine Empire will not easily be startled by the wild extravagances of Orangeism. But it seems that we have hitherto been mistaken as to the nature of the movement. We fancied that it was purely Anti-Catholfe, and that the conception ofan Orange conspiracy against the Protestant Prince of the reigning dynasty would {fovolve a kind of “bull.” We now see thatso long es some- body is insulted, and ‘political capital” made out of it, the Orange leaders are not very fastidious “The fanatical zeal of the subordinate members of the societies is worked upon by abler heads, who simply adopt Orangeism as a stepping-stone to power.”’ It probably occurred to no one durin; the late debates on‘‘Party Emblems” that ol colors and tunes of 16%) and 1797 could be turned to any use but that of irritating the Papists or that Canada could rival and surpass Ireland in the art of dressings u ew quarrel out of old materials. ‘Still less could any Englishman have believed till a few days ago, that while the French mperor ‘was sanctioning the servile genuflextions of obse- quious Mayors and Prefects, a Prince of Wales, attended by the Secretary of State for the Colonies would be negotiating in vein with the manicipal authoritis of a loyal town respecting the omission of some cffensive ceremonies. {tin positive! humiliating to read the excuses made for ‘colonia rowdyism by our cousins in the United States, and their assurances that the Prince shall not be mobbed and pursued by Filibustering fanatics after he bad crossed the frontier. n they denouce the un-English spirit of the Canadian Orengemen as alike foreign tothe Yankee char- acter and to our own, and father it upon the Celtic nationality, it isdificuit not to feel some sympathy with them. But we frankly owa tuat the purely Irish party feelings which recent legislation was desizued to check, if more dangerous, are more rational and less base than those which seem to Operate in Upper Canada. .

Even the Tribune esti- mates numbers present at 12,000, and admits the meeting was a ‘complete success.” The Journal of Commerce says: By eight o'clock all the streets and avenues con- verging to the Institute were filled; to Third avenue on the east, to Broadway on the west, and for a block or two on the Fourth avenue, north and south. Judging crowds by the usual standards of measurement, it would not be an over-estimate to say that the number collected within and with- out the building waa thirty thousand And, still, on the outékirts of the = er multitnde, made distinct by the glare of calcium lights id myriad torches, might be seen moving mass-s of mea, content to form a part of the splendid show, although it was utterly impossible for them to get within hearing distance of the speakers’ stands. The demonstration was one of the largest, and in all respects the most brilliant which bas en- livened this Presidentia! campaign. And one of the most wonderful things about it was that from first to last there wes not a sign of disturbance Every one present appeared to be profoundly im- ressed with the importance of the occasion. The nside presented a remarkable scene. The ha)! wes hung aboyt with flags and strips of canvas bearing patriotic and conservattve mottoes, and the names of the illustrious Union men of the past.

Mr. Elton came over from Traxillo ina schooner to Charleston, and thence proceeded to Mobile with letters from Col. Rudierto Mr. Julius Hesse, of that e. Mr. Elton was a friend of Gen. Walker, and sym- tbized in bis cause, but was not of his party. He witnessed the execution of the General, of which he gives in substance this description : Atthe of the Fort the General, having been led from bis cell, was relieved of the heavy irens he had borne ever since his surrender. He hed on the clothes which he had worn through the ex- ition. A force of two hundred men with ayonets received him at the fort. He was placed between two priests with lighted candles, and the troops forming in column, the melancholy cor- tege proceeded to the place appointed for the tragical deed. The General's carriage was erect and resolute, his expression calm and even smil- ing, and his whole air that ofa man of earnest de- votion and conscious rectitude. The consolations of religion, which were whi; to him by the priests who accompanied him on this his last march, were received and responded to py bim with fervid piety and Christian hopefulness. ‘These responses,we are assured by our informant, were all that proceeded from him during the march from the Fort to the scene of the execution. The military cortege was followed by a crowd of people, and a number of the sailors and marines of the British ship Icarus, wearing their side arms. As the procession the streets, the doors and windows were ali filled with le, whose countenances, and now and then their language, indicated their views and feelings in regard to General Walker. Am the natives there was a general feelii of exultation at the downfail of the ‘terrible filibuster,’ The Americans and many of the foreigners, on the other band, manifested their decided disgust for the sacrifice of so brave and truea man by the half-breed rabble of this wretched apology for a State, which had to employ 2 British man of war to capture an invading force of 70 men. Even the British marines and sailors, though a reckless and desperate set of ues and ruffians, were heartily ashamed of their in the capture of Walker. As the ession marched by the prison where the rest of Walker's men were confined, the doors and windows of the prison were completely closed. Arriving at an old ruined barracks or fort, about a quarter of a mile outside of the city, the troo were formed into three sides of a square, and tl General wes led forward and placed near an angle of the wall. The crowd of people stood behind the line of soldiers. The priests who bad accompanied the General now held a brief colloquy with him, received his confession, and ‘admintst-red to him the last sad rites of the Church, and retired. A section of four soldiers were then ordered to their post, and taking their position within twenty paces, the usual military commands were given, and the soldiers took deliberate aim at the body of the galiant American, not a feature of whose face, nota fibre of whose body betrayed the slightest emotion of fear. The command ‘‘fire”’ was given, the volley discharged, and the General feil for- ward on bis face. The body lay quivering in the agonies of death—the bullets of his execu- tioners had passed through his hesd—when the second section was ordered to advance and fire another volley, which only mutilated the body, from which the life was fast ebbing. Then a single soldier marched up to the body, and placed his musket within a few inches of ‘the already dead man, and fired, horribly defacing his coun- tenance and blowing the head nearly from the body. ‘Then the troops were formed and proceeded at a pone hae as back to town, leaving the body of Gen. Walker where it had fallen. Here it was taken charge of by the priests who had attended him to the place of execution, and by two Ameri- can citizens, whose names are Cornelius Hooper and Orlando Graves, and after being decently coffined was interred with the ceremonies of the Catholic Chureh in a cemetery outside of the town. During the whole time of the execution not 2 word escaped General Walker, except his whispered de egos to the spiritual consolation of the priests. The story that he addressed the spec- tators a short time before his execution, decla ng his regret for his course, was concocted by the Honduran authorities, or, perbaps, was fabricated in Havana, where his name and deeds were held in such terror. There is not a word of truth in the statement.
