The Qollins steamer Pacific, afier an execele Tout passage of ten days and two boars from Li pool, yesterday brought us foar days’ later advices { fem Europe. The political information by this ar- | rive) isef bat little or no importance; indeed, the | presees and people of the Old World, having no‘bing | ef special interest at homoto attract their attention, appear io be busily ocenpied in the diseussion of effaiss on this continent. Cubs, the guono affair, the las! flare-up in the House of Representatives, &o., &e., 270 all reviewed with the most critical | nicety, as will bo observed from the extracts given | from the London Times. This must be —agreat country, beyond all question. No better proof of thie can be given thon tho fact that the really great nations in Burope have, for the time boing, ceased wrargling emong thomselves, in order to take a eazeful survey of our rapidly advancing strides to imeomparable greatne:s. The harvests in England and France have tarned out mach better than was anticipated. Cotton was steady, and thore had been no ebange in pri worthy of remark in any of the markets. | Peliticians, on referemee to the telegraphie co- Jumn, will see whom the whigs in three or four dif- ferent counties have chosen to represent them in the State Convention. What is a little singular, the whige ef Syracuse have electeda silver gray delegate This is a decided triumph. In othor counties 2 determination appears to be evinced to secure the renomination of Gov. Hunt, with Mr. Uliman, of this city, for Lieut. Governor. According to the telegraph, Gen. Szott’s tour to the West scems to have infused something like ani- mation smong the whigs in Pittsburg, where lic ar- rived yesterday morning. The Genoral made speeches to them during the gore andia the evening, in whieh he highly iauded the character of the Pennsylyaniane generally, and their soldiers particularly. By the way, we to-day publish a homeopethie doze of the Memoir of General Se: which should be read by all who take an interest in the bistorien] events of this country. From Albany we have an account of still another serious railroad accident, in which 2 gravel train yen against » wagon and horses, throwing the driver, a colored man, upon the track, aud mutila- ting him in such a shosking manner that his life is despaired of. ‘There appears to bo no end to this | species of eatastrophe. Will drivers end pedosirians | | vor- | | i | | | org j our friend: an szeltoment ef sensation similar to those of former quadrennial cras. But, so obstinately indif- ferent have. the people at large shown themselves, that in this expectation we were and though, in the whig ranks, “ Stanley was the cry,” yet he and b's colleagues were completely defeated by the apathy of the people, who seem, in regard to the Presidential question, to have been inoculated with the pblegmatic qualities of the historic Knicker- boeker. And yet, palpebdle and self-evident, and apparently indisputable, as the fact has been, tho sapient phi- losopher who writes for that organ of Sewardism, abolitionism, Fourierism, socialism, woman’s right- ism, and all the ethor “isms” of the day—the New York Zribune—bas the effrontery, in an article ¥ ing, in a sort of left-handed argument, that there that evorything was going on well. Je says, also, that this enthusiasm fer General Scott ‘is in the kearts of the people, and will be manifest at the proper tims,” and that ‘(the quietness they (the democrats) mistook for apathy, was the dictate of security—of confidence’ —winding up his inflated article with the following piece of vaticjnation, procured, no doubt, through a spiritual medium :— “We ere no prophet, and cannot say what the future has in store, but to-day the prestige of suceess is ail om ay for Old Chippewa.” Now it would, be almoet insulting to the common sense of community were we to soriously set about refuting the statements of this Sowardite organ—it certainly would be suporfinous task; out we haye just lighted upon an article which appoars in } one of the most influential whig nowspapers of the great West, the Lowisville Jounal, and from it We wako am extract or two, to contrast with the very eredible assertion of the New York Tinhune. Under the caption of ** Tae Presidential Election,” the leading editerial article in the Louisville Jour- nel proeveds io discuss the very qasstion waich we have co often adverted to—tho absence ef popular fecling and exeitement in the campaign. Just hear the editor of this whig joursa! ing @ coinpleie er to the assertion of the abvotition Sowardite He says :— ‘The election is now but sevem weeks off, and yet we are | constrained to ray that the whig party of Kentucky do not appear to have made t! eceseary preparations for it. We bolleve that the ig Coutral Ooi Frankfort have endeavored todo their duty but we seo no evidence of proper e: prominent whigs throughout the that the committee have prepared system of organi:mtion; but all he di Py ate, We are informed in theory ® complete cam do no good unless ond by prom, t it is only @ paper plan, and” vatil active men take hold of ic and gtve it vit eficioney. One reason why or friends throughout the State ave supine is that they suppose our opponents to be supine also. Leven if they were eorree! in this supposicio would not be @ good one, for the demoeratie &t always be ralited to the ‘po the whig strength canno correct — The They ave at work every de make bo noise about it, Their hope of gaining Kentucky, over whieh tbe whig tlag has for so rrany years streamed in glory. is nerving them tothe most determined exer. tions. “We baye reason to know that the democratic lcaders are entirely confident of carrying Kentucky, un- less. an excitement shall be got up in ihe whig party. len election, shall be warmed up to enthusiasm. Now, we pit Prentice and Henderson, of the Louis ville Journal, against Greeley and associates, of the Tribune. Both belong to the same party. One says the whigs are supine, and must be defeated un- lees they ean be warmed up to enthusiasm—the oth- er esserts that this enthusiasm for General Soott | doce alzeady exist in the whig ranks, and that the prestige of success is all on their side. Which of the two avsertions is most worthy of credit, and which of them is best fortified by tacts?) We leave an in- telligent public to decide, and rest satisfied that the verdict will be against the “‘man of many isms.” Dasiex, Wesstrr.—The Union whig party are marching forward with steady step and closed ranks, and their banner proudly flying in the breeze. There are now two papers in Boston bearing the standard of Daniel Webster for Prosident of the United States. The Bee has long since hung out its colors. But the Courier, a staid and sedate jour- nal—one of the most respectable of the whig organs of Boston—has also unfurled at the head of its eo- Jumns the following nominations :— ever learn to keep off the track, and thus avoid reck- | lesely tampering with life and limb ? We learn that a dreadful murder was committed | at Natick, Mass., last Friday night. The assassin | entered the house of Mr. Taylor, and having des- | patcbed him, attacked Mrs. Taylor, who, after a | derperate struggle—in which, it is feared. she was | mortally wounded—succeeded in getting rid of the fievdieh vy in. A man was yesterday arrested, | whom Mrs, Taylor, although in an almost dying state, recognized asthe perpetrator of the outrage. The cool weather has already greatly diminished | the mortality reports of different Northern cities. oi : fevers, dysentery, &c., ave rapidly disap- pearing. There have only been cight deaths from cholera at Rochester within the last three days. i A despatch from Springfield announces that there | was a very Leavy fall of snow on the White Moun- tains laet Thursday, and that a party who climbed Mount Washington were almost frozen to death for | their trouble. We are sorry to hear that Mr. Beebe, of Brooklyn, and a Mr. Fowler and lady, of | Connecticut, were severely hurt by being thrown | from a carriage at Franconia Notch on Friday. | The Canadian Parliament on Friday adopted an address, by a majority of thirty-two, asking the British government to relinquish the control of the Clergy Reserves to Canada. Oar columne, as usual, contain a large amount of local, political, religious, and other interesting in- telligence, to which we direct the attention of these interested. , : The Presidential Campaign—Remarkabir Dearth of Excitement. in the upright and independent performance of our editorial functions, we have, from time to ti during the past few months, noticed the complete absence of all popular fermentation with respect to ihe Presidential contest now pending in the country. It was a circumstance worthy | of note, typical of the progressive utilitarian | age in which we move, and of the confidence of the people in the ability of our free institu- | tione to keep the country right on in the course of | prosperity which, for ite past career, has awakened | the admirattoa and envy of the civilized world. The | popular sentiment was, and is, that it mattors little | which of the two candidates presented by the leal- ing parties of the country may be clovated to the Presidential chair, so long as the great fundamonta! principles of the constitution are reapocted. The | mass of the poople saw in the violent efforts made by the politicians, and journalists, and place-huntors, of | either eide, nothing but the natural oporations of | covetousnes? of powor, place, and the spoils which will acerue to the successful party. Thoy, there- H fore, have taken no active interest in the campaign, | but have shown the atmost indifference as to who shall reign over them. | This total apathy it manifested throughout the | cs whole extent of the Union, has attracted the obser- | iy 5 supporters of General Scott could hitherto eal | [2% vation ofall intelligent men, and has been com- | mented on in some of the independent journals of | the country, but more especially in our colnmns. { As faithful historians of passing events, we have | recorded the state of popular feeling as exhibited ridiculous results, to be got up here and there by the ranting politiciane and stump orators of either of | the two great party divisions. In this, a¢ in all | matters of public interest, we were guided by facts | obtained from our own reporters, as well pa from | other reliable sources of information. We thought, too, previous to the adjournment of Congross, (hat when that would take place, the Senators and Rep- | yoventativos, coming from that not very decorous | txena of strife, and etumping {i throughout the | Woon, would dissipate this spathy, and kindle up | x ‘ \ j ter UNION WHIG NOMINATIONS.

We have, however, just received a note from (lin- ton place, in the contiguity of this gentlemen's re sidence, giving we certain information as to ‘ho identity of our correspondent, en which we wero posted up before hand. He is weelthy and gallant; ‘and in compliment to tho fair lady herself he have paid up the balance of the $500 without being dunned.

The victims of this popular delusion seem to be increasing on ull hands, and there is every appeerance that the number of in” feel ture of victory, unless the whigs, at the approach ef the | mates of the insane asylums, at the end of the pre. sent year, will be nearly double of the year pre- vious. There is one important old lady who has been infected by the Rochester knockings, who is now on her way to an insane asylum, and possibly will reach it in the early partof November. Under the teach- ings of a certain philosopher and Fourierite of this city, a highly respectable o1d lady, known as the “Whig Party,” has been devoting days and nights to Rochester knockings, for some time, and she is now getting very much excited upon the subject ; and-we think that by the beginning of November the will be ready to be put into some safe lunatic Tnr Union Wma Panry.—THe Nowsxarion or | *sylum, and possibly, also, the best way would be to put the philosopher along with her, in tie samo institution. Dre Thvisi0on 4xp Umon or Pantres. — There ate now two whig parties in tho field. The nomination of Webster divides the whig party into two orga- nized factions—one the Union whigs and the other the abolition whige. Webster is the leader of the whig Unionists, and Scott of the whig abolitionists. Really, it would soem that division and disaster have afflicted all parties except the rampant demo- eracy. The free eoilers are divided into two orga- nizations, and have made two sets of nomina‘ions There is no union anywhere but among the demo- eracy, who appear determined to have the spoils, at all hazards. Tur Frignr avour New Jrrsey.—The Seott and Seward socialist clique of this city, seem to be ina terrible fright about the vote of New Jersey, in December. The Hon. Mr. Wright, formerly a very influential whig of that State, has, it seems, them on their strength and decision in holding firm abandoned the whig party, in the days of its do- against the threats and frowns of whig leaders in tage, and has come out for General Pierce and the the Scott interest, and the attacks of the Scott pa- democracy. Hebkas been nominated at the head of | Pere, which have utterly failed to put them down. In reference to the principle our contemporary says — ‘Two things may be learned f pened. One is, thet Mr. Wi people and bis popularity with the masses, have beca grossly underrated by the politiciaus of the whig party. The other is, that when an attempt is made to foree peo- ple to support a candidate whom they do not like, on the ground that they are bound to do ro, in consequence of a party nomination, there must always Le a very nuniber of persons belonging to such & body as the w arty who will not endure that kind of coorcion. There : such a thing among the ma:ses of the poople as pollti- cal principle; and although the regular loaders of & poli- tical party areapt to assume that it i¢ all on their elde of & question, they axe sometimes forced to loarn that a dif- ferent view oi what cometitutes principle may very ho- nesily be taken by very beucet persons, Se, then, it seems that the Union whigs are nei- ther to be cajoled nor forcod—neithor led nor driven—into the support of Scott’s nomination. They have principles to maintain as well asthe | Scottites, and they have as good a right to stand } hy them.
