Company, the Potomac aqueduct, which belongs to that company. and at present the ebstacle to the early opening of that canal. lt is understood that when the Board of Public Works of Maryland shall haye ap- proved the foregoiug—of which there is no doub!—the subject will be laid before the au- thorities in Washington, witha prospect, it is boped. of having the aqueduct restored to the canal company, and one of our main avenues of trade. so leng locked up through the in- fuence of rival cities, again opened. “Hope deferred maketh the heart sick.” but we yet trust that rightand justice will prevail,and that our canal may,one of these days, be a source of profit and great benefit to Alexandria. The Directors at the same meeting deter- mined to reduce the :reighton coal It cents per ton, which it is thought will havea bene- ficial effect, and greatly increase the trade on the canal —Alezandria Gazette. BRUTAL MUnDER.—A short time since a poor, inoffensive colored man, residing near Mr. Gilead, Loudoun County, was most bra- tally murdered at hisown home, and in the presence of his wite and eight children, by some fiends in human form, disguised as ne- groes. Asfaras we can learn, the circum- stances are as follows: The perpetrator, in company with two others, disgzised as ne- groes, called at the house ot this colored man, whore name is William Taylor, remarking tbat they bad lost their way, and wished to know the way to New York. One of them ex- preseed himself as being very dry, whereon he Was furnished by Taylor with drink, at the same time seizing him by the throat, and swearing ‘hat he would kill him on the spot, if he did not give full privitege (o ransack the premises, and possess themselves of whatever was desirable. This of course was granted, andthe villains proceeded to gather up the spoils. This being accomplished, one of the fiends deliberately placed ® revolver to the head of poor Taylor, and fired, inflicting a wound, from which he soon after expired. The fiends then left tor parts unknewn, and are still undiscovered. Taking it altogether, it is one of the most brutal irson record. The affair was brought to the knowledge of the civil authorities. but they have thus far taken no official notice of 1t whatever. Taylor re- marked, before he expired, that a white man by the name of Bush Underwood, he believed, was one of the parties. The matter will not rest here. If the civil authorities will take no notice of it, the military will.—Alezandria Journal. ®7 The London Morning Heraid raises a doubtasto the Red, White ana Bine having really made a passage across the Atlantic. That paper says that it seems gacdly possible that the deck of that tiny vessel should not have been swept by every roller whenever there was a capful of wind. and that she ap- ee to have no device of any kind to prevent er rudder trom unsbipping in asea way. That she wus seen to leave New York is one in- disputable fact, that she suddenly peared in the channel is another; but that she really crossed the Atlantic without assistance the Herald very much doubts. Although the ex- hibition at the Crystal Palace of her little bin- nacle, ber little sextant, her little speaking trumpet, and her remaining store of biscuits and water, is very interesting, it affords no proof whatever, says the Herald. that she was not hoisted on board some friendly liner as soon as she got out of sight ofland and launched again as soon as the Start lights were sighted. A Serious Cuarce.—Gilbert Adams, Cap- tain J. R Denny, Washington French and Michael Heaney are charged with burning a steamboat on witch there wis 850,000 insur- ance, for the purpose of realizing the insurance. Adams and ch were formally suttlers at Fort Delaware, and bought the boat, which they employed at great profit in’ conveying Prisoners to and from Fort Del . When the war was over it is claimed res her ofno further use to them, they inda Captain Denny to take her to Chester, ostensi- bly to be repaired, and there, Captain Denny testifies, at their earnest solicitation he induced his brother to fire the boat. A hearing was bad in the case in Philadelphia. Tuesday. Adams was held te answer. is Colorado. : SENDING Uoats TO NEWCAsTLEe.— When Sir Morten Peto was in this country he found ou: umong other things that we had bettet coal than thattaken from the EnglisB mines.

Cincinnati, Sept. 12—The President spoke as follows in reeponsé to the welcome sddress of Hon. W. J Groesbeck : 1 tender you my sincere thanks for this re. ception, Itis no ordinary Serene to be ten- dered the complimerts which Rave just been given me through Mr. Groesbeck—the same man who welcomed me here an exile, in 156i, on the occasion of my first visit to this place, when I fled from the fury of Southern rebels; 8nd it is a singular coincidence that he who acted as yourorgan in welcoming me, the exile, now welcomes me in the double capacity of a citizen of the United States, and as President of thirty-six States, not twenty-five, as some will Bave it. [( 5 I will say, by way of introduction, that I entertain the same views ing the Union that I entertained in i861 contended then that no State could go out of its own will ard accord. I contendsonow. I placed myself upon that platform as a Senator, and upon it 1 fought secession and rebellion. I stand upon it pow as President. [Cheers] It has been said that I have tarned traitor since I became President. Traitortowhom? I will eal upon any man where and defy him to put bis fin- ger upon an instance in which I have sweryed & hair’s breadth from the platform upoa which the late lamented President and myself were elected. Extract the principles from the plat- form, and they will be found identical with thore of the Constitution of the United States, and upen that | stand as 1 haveever stood. 1 again ask this intelligent audience, to whom bavel turned traiter! I do not wish to be Isisunderstood, and 1 will, therefore, speak plainly, as there are those desirous of misrep- resenting me. If fidelity to my country, to the Constitution and to liberty be treason, then 1 am atraitor. (Cheers. If fidelity to country is treason to party, then i am a traitor. Why should I turn traitor? I have been fighting powerandtyranny all my life, and now, in office, itis a second nature, and it is natural that I should defend the rights of the people against tyranny and centralization. What will I gain PY, treason? I am nocandidate. I have filled all the offices in the gift of the people, and my ambition is satisfied. Why should 1 turn traitor to the people who have honored me! What act of my life has ever been te their detriment? Have not all the measures I ever advocated been for the amelioration of mankind! I have opposed the enemies of freedom and the Von- stitution since I bave been in power. I vetoed the Freedmen’s Bureau bill in the interest of the people. Does that make me a traitor! Was the Freedmen’s Sureau bill, or any bill like it, a part of the platform on which f was elected? Did I receive your votes to saddle upon you & measure which will cost at least twelve million doliars per annum, and may cost fifty or sixty million dollars. (Cries of “No, no!) Why that wonld be four times all the expenses of the Government under the ad- ministration of John Quincy Adams, which was denounced as an extravagant administra- tion. Who has done more for emancipation than I have? Knowing that theemancipation proclamation was only & war measure, and its legality might be doubted ina time of peace, 1 was for the constitutional amendment, which makes all men forever free. (Cheers.) 1t was submitted to all the States, elee it could not have been valid to day. (Cheers.) The negrois now free, and has an even startin the race for lite; but there are some who say that he is not competent to take care of himself, and want the Government todo it for him, yet they turn right around and aay that he is competen: to'vote.

SEconp NaTIONAL CouNciL oF THE RoMan CatroLicCuRce —The second National Voun- cil of the Catholic Church of the States, to be held in this city on the first Sunday in October, and which is to terminate on the thira Sunday of tae same month, will probably prove & grand religious pageant. All the archbishops, the heads of male religious or- ders, the superintendents of seminaries; in fact, the entire Catbolic clergy, have been in- vited to attend, and the invitation seems to bave been ages 4 accepted. The Most Rey. Dr. Spaiding. Archbisbop of Balumore, has been delegated by the Pope to preside over the deliberations of the council. ‘ne importance of the convention about to assemble may be determined by the fact that there will be forty-one prelates, at least one hundied priests, and & great number of supervisors of or- ders present. tional Council was beld in this city in 1853, and its decrees, after Daving been approved by the Pope, were ublished, and their provision: n observed in the discipline o: Catho- lic Church. It is thought the present Oouncil will exercise & much greater influence than the one preceding it, owing to the great in- crease of —— And religious orders of the Cburch. The direct object of this important assemblage of Oatholic clergymen is for the purpose of regulating the discipline of the Church; also, for& more systematic plan for the education of Catholic youth. It is gener- ally understood that the convention will - vise the endowment of several colleges and seminaries, and that the education of priests will be @ prominent topic of discussion. it is also understood that new episcopal sees will be established and Bishops appointed to fill them. All nominations will, of course, be re- ferred to Rome for confirmation, this being obligatery on all Catholic Councils.—Baltimore American.
