W. Bradford, yesterday. Henry Eagle, at his decease, willed to his son William ‘certain pro- petty, providing said son, who had been away and not heard from for five or six years, was then living. Seven years have elapsed since William Eagle was heard of; the law considers him dead. Wilham, be- fore going away, bequeathed all his property to a brother. This brother now claims the bequest made to William by the father. If Willium wis alive at the time his father made the will, of course his heir or brother has a legal claim to the property be- queathed, but not if he was dead. The law consid- ers the absentee dead at the end of sevea years; but does it hold him to be alive till the end of that :ime? The Surrogate decided that the law assumes him to be living until the last day of the seven years has elapsed, and that it requires positive evidence to es- tablish his death before that time. In his decision the Surrogate reviewed the law upon the poiat, from Justinian down to our own courts, and developed come interesting facts on so critical and technical a point. ‘The Canal Commissioners are about to issue pro- posals for a loan of a million and a quarter of doilars.

Wise, at a late democratic meeting in the city of Rich mond, Virginia, got up for the special benefit of John Minor Botts, and to silence forever his late audacious declaration, that the South will not break up the Union should Fremont be elected to the Presidency by the voice of the American people. Captain Scott is the happy man who, in 1852, caught all the old outstanding democratic aspi- rants for the White House—a full baker's dozen— upon a letter which was too strong for niggers to suit the stomachs of the Northern democracy; and the result was the nomination of Franklin Pierce, who had been overlooked by Captain Scott, and who was, therefore, available. One good turn deserving another, when the time came Captain Scott was appointed by Mr. Pierae our Consul at Rio Janeiro, and this will ac- count for the milk in the cocoanut, as far as the Consul from Rio extols to the skies the ad ministration which gave him that office. Henry is the democratic Governor of Virginia nd his presence and participation in the proceed- sof the meeting in question are suggestive o berate ecpranieey arsed to stir up a Botts from the State. cott opens the cgse. His eulogium upon poor Pierce, his defenee of the democratic party, and of the Southern democracy, on the slavery question, may go for what they are worth. His main object was to show up Mr. Botts as a traitor, guilty of the greatest possible offence of treason, and as having “cast himself loose upon the world, unfit to associate with honorab! in that atrocious declaration t@at Frem: tion will not drive the Southggg States to dis- union and civil war. Captain Sept clinches the nail of his argumer nst Mr. Botts by quoting largely from Mr. nore’s Albany speech, to show that the South cannot, will not, and should not submit to Fr ‘s elee Thus Southern ifiers and Northern traitors are mutually em- d to bolster up each other. Yet, while in Seott accepts and approves Mr. Fill- aga re) ejecta the man him- tion elf as utter! Another is his certaint, tion and his He has no doubt of a great atic triumph; but he is still very mach at the popularity of Fremont.

This ion of Fremont is the crowning catastrophe of curious nullification speech h the orator assures us, as confident- “will and uw s Mr Toombs or Mr. Fillmore, ought to be the end of the Uni ‘ h for Captain Se If we dismiss i Governor Wise nde our attention. It s speech that was ature and the glory of this democratic purpose of expelling Mr. the great fe meeting, called for tl Botts from the Commonwealth. And what says Governor Wise? He is aware of the danger—he eces the handwriting on the wall against the cor- rupt and rotten democracy, and he sits ap late of nights, revolving in his mind the measures to be taken in order to break up the . should Fremont be elected. He pleads that this is no time for trifling: that “demonism” is abroad, and that “the question fearfully arises, what «hall we do?” Then he tarns to his niggers—always niggers—it is niggers, first and last, with Gor- nor W and the price of niggers. He tells us hat all al the northern border of Virginia, a thousand dollar n thousand d t is worth no more than a ars eet afloat on a chip on the Ohio river. A the remedy which he proposes for the security of these gers should Fremont be elected, is a dieolution of the Union war—and he is pr or that contin; What biad i ion! what reckless insanity is this!

Gov. Wise ad- mits that disunion will involve the “fearful issues of civil war, blood and death;” and yet he studies all day, and sits up late of nights, plot- ting this crime of disunion, and this general slaughter of his niggers who are to fight their master’s battles, All this, bowever, is extraneous matter; for Botts was the object, and Botts is the prominent figure ofthe Governor's speech, the Goyernor’s threats, denunciations and wrath. He tells Botts that he has “raised the black flag in our midst” —~ that he is guilty of “treason,” “false to his trust, hishonor and his home,” and warns him that Richmond “has a Mayor, a Commonwealth’s at- torney, a grand jury; and that he had better look to the slavery code of the State, and note the fines and punishments it provides for speaking or writing anything impairing the value of slaves” —niggers, always mggers. We had supposed that Kansas was alone blest with a nigger code established in violation of the constitution; but if there be anything in these threats of Gov. Wise against Mr. Botts, Virginia, whose early republi- can fathers were the founders of the constitution, may boast the same distinction as Kansas—a des- potic code of nigger driving nullification, wholly at war with the supreme law of the land, and therefore disloyal, false to the Union, null and void. What says the eonstitution, the supreme law of all the States and Territories? We quote from it:—* The citizens of each State shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens in the several States.” A dead letter throughout the South. Again, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of re- ligion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof ; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” These interdicts are ap- plied to Congress; but in the case of Houston vs. Moore, (5 Wheaton 1, 12,) the Supreme Court has decided that “in cases of concurrent authority, where the laws of the States and the Union are in direct and manifest collision on the same subject, those of the Union, being the supreme law of the land, are of paramount au- thority.” The whole of these democratic proceedings in Virginia, then, against Mr. Botts, including the speech of Gov. Wise, and the State slavery code to which he refers, are nothing more nor less than a nullification of the constitution and of the rights it confers upon the people in all parts of the Union, of free speech, a free press, and that other right of the people, “peaceably to assem- ble” for the discussion of public affairs. What safety, then, is there with a party which thus shamelessly nullifies the constitution in fifteen States of the Union, by a system of despotic ter- yorism more intolerable than that of Russia? What safety with Mr. Buchanan, who is but the tool of these Southern nullifiers?—or with Mr. Fillmore, who unblushingly counsels the treason of secession should Fremont be elected? There is no safety, no security, no reliance upon either the one or the other. They both stand upon the nullifier’s platform of a red “Fepublican revolu- tion against the people, should thé people decide against them, Our safety and security are with Fremont. Gov. Wise says “ he is nothing, and less than no- thing;” but as the champion of the constitution and the Union against all such hotheaded nigger driving nullifiers and secessionists as Gov. Wise, and such tools of the nulliflers as Buchanan and Fillmore, we say that Fremont is everything. Let us elect him, and restore the South to the constitution and the Union, and bring back all those democratic Southern nullifiers and disunion- ists and their Northern tools and mercenaries to their senses, Our readers may expect soon to heer again from Mr. Botts. He knows his rights, and he holds his ground. Let them touch him, if they dare. A Sovrtiern Ornator Gore Ivto Watt street. —The Buchanan organs of this cily inform us that a committee of merchants, of this city, in favor of the Cincinnati platform, has invited ex- Governor Floyd, of Virginia, who is now sojourn- ing at the St. Nicholas Hotel, to make a speech upon the present Presidential controversy, from the steps of the Merchants’ E&change, on the af- ternoon of Thursday next. This isa very excel- lent movement, and we approve of it highly, Governor Floyd is a fair average Southern states man, of the old Virginia blood. We gave a very good Southern speech which he made the other day at Lynchburg, Virginia, where Keitt ex- ploded. We have no doubt that Governor Floyd will be received with the greatest courtesy, and heard with the same attention that was paid to Mr. Speaker Banks. Let them all enter the con- troversy, and give us all the bearings of the ques tion, of the effect that the election of Mr. Bu- chanaa would have upon Southern institutions ond Southern property, particularly the price of niggers, the enhancement of which was so stoutly josisted upon in the orations of Governor Wise. We also desire to know the exact mode that is to be adopted, in the event of Fremont’s election, by Old Virginia and the Southern States, to rob the treasury previous to going ont of the Union. About three-fourths of the public money of the United States is safe in Wall street, and we desire to know whe ther General Brooks, of South Carolina, and the other fire-eaters, will come down here to take the eub-treasury, or will be satisfied with what they find at the cqpital. We want full particu- Jars on this point, Another point; Lieutenant Governor Raymond, of this State, has been boil- ing over with oratory. He proposed a contro- verey with Senator Brooks, but Lieut. Governor Raymond was too much for Senator Brooks, and he declined. Would it not be a good idea for this committee of merchants to invite Governor Raymond to answer Governor Floyd on the steps of the Exchange? This would save the precious life of Governor Raymond, whose eloquence, if pent up much longer, will certainly bring on the cholera or yellow fever. Governor Raymond is not much of an editor—a poor stick in journal- ism at the best—and ‘t is only fair to give him a chance as a public speaker. Now is the time to bring out our great men, before they explode under the pressure of their own elements, Iuportaxt Dretwstoy on Niooer Lroentres snp Rrowts.—We see, from a report in some of the newepapers, that Judge Whiting, of the Su- preme Court, has decided that a negro has not only the right to travel in railway cars and om- nibuses with white people, but that he may also be « candidate for the Presidency of the United States. This is the true, genuine black republi- canism; and should Judge Whiting be nominated for the Mayoralty, he would receive the united vote of the downright black republicans of the AdLigan bres, oves any white aaan's gaadidat, Woreign Opinions of the United States. We see, from the journals of England, France and Germany, that the people of Hurope are giving a good deal of attention to the affairs of this country, and entering more into the spirit of American progress than heretofore. But we do not see that this is done in a spirit of admiration or eyen sympathy. No American can read the English, French, or German papers without having his pride wounded and his feelings hurt by the manner in which men and things in the United States are handled. Nor is this confined to the press, The best of Europeans have begun to think and write disparagingly of us. M. de Tocqueville, than whom no man living better ap- preciates the institutions of the United States, or wishes better to democracy, writes to a friend in this country that the respect and kindly feeling once inspired by the American republi¢ among the French have now well nigh disappeared. ‘These things are the more worthy of reflection as the claims of the United States to the respect- ful consideration of the rest of the world were never so great as they now are. Thirty-five years ago was a period at which, according to the present census of the United States, this was a country well entitled to the admiration of the world, for iis men were then men indeed, and its leadevs true heroes. Yet this was the period of which Sidney Smith wrote, when he denied that the United States had ever done anything for letters, or for art, or for science, or for industry. Now, on the other hand, the claims of this country to eminence in each and all of these departments of human progress, are indisputable and considerable. Nearly one-third of the leading literature of the day will soon be American. American artists are figuring worthily at home and abroad. American industry is competing succeesfully with that of England in several of the largest markets of the world. American science, as judged by the Dudley Observatory, the work of Agassiz, the Coast Survey, the several exploring expeditions, and the studies of such men as Henry, Bache, Pearce, Guyot, Alexander, Mitchell, Hall and Fremont, can compare with the matured fruits of science in England, France or Germany. To whichever side we look, we find the same proofs of progress and eminence. How, then, comes it that, while the leading minds of Europe admired and respected us, when we had so little to show for ourselves, they turn from us in aver- sion and occasionally in contempt, now that really we can present substantial grounds for respectful consideration? The reason is simply that the world yet judges nations by their political leaders, and that we are judged of by our politicians. They are, heaven knows, an insignificant enough portion of this community; but in Europe, it is the fashion to consider politicians a superior race of beings, who typify national excellencies, Our politi- cians, therefore, are viewed as the highest ex- pression of the American mind, the ripest fruit of American culture, the best samples ef American growth, And seeing them disorderly, violent, reckless, unprincipled, and degraded, the Euro- peans naturally conclude that the whole natiow must be marked by those same defects in a stil) higber degree. Onur neighbors across the water will come to a knowledge of their mistake quite as soon as it is of any consequence that they should. But is it not of some consequence to us that we should in- quire whether the palpable inferiority of our poli- ticians, ag aclass, to every other class in the community, is or is not a necessary consequence of democratic institutions? The fact stares us in the face. In the days of Clay, Webster, Calhoun, and their compeers, the statesmen of America were such as any nation might have been proud of. Atan earlier date, round Jefferson and Ma- dison were grouped a band of statesmen who have rarely been excelled in history for judg- ment, wisdom or character. Now, we can hardly point to a single politician of whom one can bear to speak with anything like patience, They are all—with afew rare exceptions—unprincipled, reckless, brutal, corrupt, and many of them im- becile and ignorant besides. Why need this be? Are there no decent men in the country to choose for political office? Can we notin some way bring about a revolution to sweep away these loathsome politicians who are disgracing the American name, and destroying the character of the United States abroad? “ Puosorny Ovr or Tewrer—Our amiable cotemporaries of the Zribune should never, by any chanee, lose their good temper. A philoso- pher is a poor stick at best if he cannot govern his temper; and a politician is of little account unless he can not only govern his temper but also smooth the ruffled tempers of the hungry crew about him. The Tribune wisely thinks that there is no necessity for mixing up the Presidential election with the municipal one. We are of the same way of thinking. We have put forward and supported John C. Fremont as the best repre- sentative, in the general government, of the ad- ministrative wisdom of the people of the United States, We have defended himagainst a series of bratal personalities unparalleled in the history of politics. Our cgtemporary of the 7ridwne concurs with us in support of the same Presidential can- didate and in reprobating the brutal personal at- tacks of his calumniators and enemies. Why not make this mode a general principle of political conduct ? In the municipal election, and probably in the State election also, it seems that we may differ, and most likely will differ, with our philosophers of the 7rilwne; but in order to give the same tone of high moral character to these contests that we have endeavored to give to the Presi- dential contest, we shall lend our support or in- terpose our opposition to candidates in the one as we have done in the other. We shall avoid and frown upon personalities and miserable private affairs, judging of the public capacity and fitness of candidates without favor or affection. A great many sensible persons in this city who originally opposed Fernando Wood for Mayor are now in his favor, believing, as they do, that good government is more attainable by renewing bis tenure of office than by discarding him, with all his experience, and taking up another and an untried man, for no other reason than that Mr. Wood has personal foos and rivals in his own camp, as well as in the camps of hisopponents. The 7yidune is perfectly welcome to oppose or to support any one it pleases for the office of Mayor: but we think we have a right to express our opinion on the propriety of its course and on its consistency of temper and tone in sup- porting one candidate in one way, and opposing another candidate in another way. With regard to our acts or professions in the sup- port of Cel. Fremont for the Presidency, we shall never go far out of our way to have them verified hy the approbation of the Zribune. We will do our duty without regard to cliques. We can smile cquolly at jy ertinenge and insolgngo, whether it comes in the garb of philosophy or in that of brutality. We have supported, and will continue to support, Colonel Fremont for the Presi- dency, on the highest principles of statesman- ship and the most approved sentiments of policy; and if any of our cotemporaries in the same camp begin to show their old instincts and old follies and old brutalities, we shall first quietly counsel them like friends, and if they prove re- fractory, we shall next kick them out of our way like “border ruffians,” who ought not to be treat- ed otherwise in a dignified controversy. Colonel Fremont, by a combination of various causes and influences which we understand per- fectly well, is now something ahead of his two competitors, and will, in all probability—if his friends conduct themeelves with dignity and pro- priety—be elected President of the United States. If he should be so elected President of the United States, and should organize and con- duct his administration on the great conservative principles of the constitution and enlightened statesmanship, we shall support that administra- tion, and go for his re-election to the Presidency in 1860. If, however, he should fail in realizing the hopes formed of him in that respect, we shall oppose him as warmly, as strongly and as deter- minedly as we have ever opposed the imbecile administration of Pierce. That’s all. The Pacific Difficulty. It appears from our information from Panama and the Isthmus that if a second hleody riot has not already taken place there, it may be expected at any day. It seems that parties are divided on grounds of color; that the whites outnumber and consequently outvote the blacks; and that the latter, like the border ruffians of Kansas, appeal from the ballot box to the machete and the re- volver. On the 15th instant there would have been a riot and much bloodshed but for the United States marines who pulled to the water line, and lay there in their boats, ready to inter- fere in case of disturbance. We have no positive account of any subsequent riot; but at the time the steamer left Navy Bay, a rumor was current that blood had begun to flow at Panama. Our information, which is derived from several trust- worthy source, leads us to conclude that no re- liance whatever can be placed either in the will or in the power of the government of Panama, or of New Granada. Many of the officers of go- vernment live and discharge their functions in a state of abject terror of the negroes, who ere always ready with the threat that they will mur- der any one who opposes them. Others are only too well disposed to abet their nefarious designs against the people of the United States. And if all the officers of government possessed the will and the courage to keep the peace, they would still lack the physical force that alone can impose it pon the populace of Panama. We are satisfied, therefore, that the lives and property of our fellow countrymen who cross the Isthmus four times a month, are in the most im- minent peril; and we believe that unless mea- sures are taken to inaugarate a new order of things at Panama, the trade of the world will re- ceivea notable check, and the interests of the whole Pacific be seriously injured. Our government, after the occurrences of April, stationed vessels at either end of the rail- way to overawe the negro mob. At the time there was reason to believe that this precaution would have sufficed. We are now convinced that it will not. We have every reason to believe that a settled purpose exists among the half- breeds and negroes of Panama to inflict some se- vere injury on our people in revenge for sup- posed wrongs, and also to plunder the specie ex- press on the first convenient opportunity. There is no ground for hoping that the deed will be at- tempted in an awkward or foolish or helpless manner. On the contrary, it is likely that it will be performed with cunning and executed with bloodthirsty daring. The train will not be at- tacked under the guns of the frigates. But a few rails may be torn up at some twentymiles from sea, and in the confusion created by the sudden stoppage of the train, the specie car may be robbed, and an indiscriminate massacre at least commenced. In such a case, our vessels of war would be utterly uséless ; they would not know of the mischief until it was past remedy, and we should have no other consolation than a sterile vengeance. Under the circumstances we revert to our ori- ginal sentiment —which concurs in some respects with Mr. Corwine’s report—that the Isthmus should for the present be occupied by United States troops in the interest of the commerce of the world, When we last made this suggestion it aroused quite a clamor among various organs of opinion in Europe; it was viewed as a step toward the annexation of New Granada to the United States. Reflection will probably convince the English that we have no such foolish aim as this; that we only seek to insure the safety of our people and our property, as well as theirs; and that national usage, no les than paramount necessity, justifies the measure, There ought to be some men in England who know enough of America to be sure that the annexation of New Granada has not a decent advocate in this coun- try. But whether foreigners like it or not, it seems that it will have to be done. We cannot go on, risking five hundred valuable lives and a million and a half of treasure every week, either to satisfy the dignity of the imbecile Spaniards and ruffian negroes of Panama, or to defer to the jealous alarm of Europe. We have abundant precedent for the step. England has never hesi- tated to garrison any territory in the East when the rulers thereof appeared incapable of preserv- ing peace; she has more than once fofced her troops upon her neighbors to help them to rule their territory; at the present moment she garri- sons Greece jointly with France. France garri- sons Rome, and has garrisoned parts of Northern Africa, in the interest of the commerce of the Me- diterrancan. Austria has garrisoned Lombardy for forty years, and only recently ceased to gar- rison the Principalities. It is pretended that in some of these cases a sort of invitation passed be- tween the Power invaded and the invader, but this can delude no one, and in many cases # has been wholly dispensed with. We see no reason why the United States should not garrison Panama, Aspinwall and the line of road; and we see many reasons why, if the pre- caution is neglected, we may hereafter rue the neglect. Pexxsyivania Sore ror Faemont.—We have received information from the most reliable and undoubted authority that satisfies us that the Fremont State ticket, in opposition to the demo- cracy, will be triumphantly elected on the 14th of the next month. The opposition party in Pennsylvania united some two years ago, under the name of Know Nothings, and ewept the State against the democracy by an unprecedented ma- jority. Since that time there has been another auitusion, bd all Up gleanguls of that pasty are now planted on the grand platform of oppo sition to Buchanan and the democracy, and ulti- mately in favor of Fremont and the revolution in, politics, The Buchanan partizans in Pennsylya- nia are endeavoring to encourage their followers by calculations based upon the old issues, but they have neglected to take into account the great religious element which is opposed to them. They have omitted to notice that the united religious press of Philadelphia, as wellasNew 1 York, is almost unanimously opposed to them, and that in consequence the rotten democracy will be defeated in Pennsylvania as they have ¢ been in Maine. This religious element has not appeared in politics in this country during the last quarter of a century, but it has lately been awakened in the fullest force, by the atrocious policy of the Pierce administration in relation to Kanéas, and there is the strongest reason to be- 4 lieve that it will sweep Pennsylvania, in opposi~ tion to the Buchanan party, both on the 14th of October and the 4th of November, inaugurating one of the greatest political revolutions ever known in the history of our country.
