Nothing could ex weed the gallantry of the officers and men epgeged. Toey had heard on the first night of the session of the gallantry ef Actiral Hope—how be shiftea bis fag from ship to ebup efter being wounded, and they coukt not refuse to eyenpathize with the officers under bis command—Vaa wart, Chadwell, lemon, Heath, Fisher and others. The action continued until nightfall, while M x, who wan only nine miles distant, and w hat the Ohwese government bad fuldiled its obligetione, made no the carnage. (Hear, he He was disposed e deeply with any Mmister placed at so ho FY Out the that excuse nee from his country: but he was compelled to eey that on this occasion their Minister had misused his avibority. And how did Nr. Broce afterwards detend his conduct’ By saying that the Chinese abused their autho rity, the treachery being that the baiteries of the Chinese were masked, and that there were gunboats on the river. Why, Lord Eig bim: before he left (China, mmew thet the batteries were masked—he intimated that they were fortifying the mouths of the Pribo, and Wat bey were justified indoing 80. He might also reter ww the letter of Captain Langley, who said that it was op our part the declaration of war was made—tha ‘Were waé po treachery on the part of the Chinese at all— that we knew there were gunboats on the river—tbat one of them was actually fired to warn us to withdraw our force; and siated his opinion, that if the Chinese had pened a)! their batteries at that time, not one of our ‘eats would have been left. (Hoar.) There was another matter in which Mr. Bruce’s conduct deserved to be can- vassed. Mr. Bruce stated that Mr. Ward, Hie American Minister, who ivisely did not co-operate with him at all, was weerived with insult and contumsly when he went to Pek Would it be Lelieved (iat all this was tolally imaginary? Mr. ‘Ward bimscif states that ho had been received by the Cemere officials with the greatest respect and considera- tion; that everything had been done to facilitate his jour mey to Pekin; that junks had been sent to convey him up ‘the river, and that the Chinese had shown a courtesy which left nothing to be desired. Mr. Buchanan, the Present of the Cnited States, bore similar mony in his Teoent message, and declared that (he conduct of Mr. Ward on the occasion had received his entire approbation. Taking ail the circumstances of the case into consideration, be thought that Mr. Bruee had acted ina peremptory and precipitate manner, and not in the spirit of a Minister who Went out to ratify a treaty of peace. (Hear, hear.) Lord J. Resseis.—Si qveations the professional opinions of tbe gallant Admiral, al in the service of the er will apy one question his Grown and country. The gailant Admiral has received the approbation of the Admiralty, hisimmediate superiors, and therefore I think it quite unnecessary, indeed impos- aibic, to go into all the questions to which he bas adverted ‘as to his conduct and his differences with the nobie lord ‘who was her Majesty’s Ambassador there. 1 doubt, too, whether this is an opportunity when we can conveniently diecuss the whole matter: but, at able gentleman who brought forward the question made vo mary charger, and went intoso much detail, that I can- mot altogether avoid questioning some paris of the narra- tive which he has given us. ‘The House will recollect that Mr. Bruce was cept to China forthe purpose of obtaining the ratification of the treaty of Tien-tsin. Before he went, he ‘aid a paper before Lord Malmesbury asking insirac: tons, and saying that parts of the treaty of Tien-tsin were Wkely to be unpalatable (o the Chinese. and that there might be some difficulty which had not been foreseen in carrying them into effect He did mot mention that the entrance to the Peiho was Vikely to be resisted; but he did ask was he to insist upon going up to Pekin. Tord Malmesbury, in reply, gave him orders to go to Pekin, and, with regard to the mode of proceeding there, gave him orders ts this eflect:——“ You will probably tnd it advieable, before your departure, to end information to Pekin of your approach, so that suita- ble arreugements may be made for your reception at the Peibo mouth, and the admirai in command is directed to wend tip to the entrance of the Hetho a naval tore.” Let ‘wa suppose Mr. Bruce Lad taken a diferent coarse to that which he parsued, and iet us consider what would have een the consequences, and what sort of judginent would have been passed upon him in this country. If Mr. Bruce hhad said he would not auemps to pass up the river by force, but that he would submit to the propesais of the | ‘Chinese, what would bave ooourred at bome! For may own part, I am inchned to think that, afler the successful resistance made by the French and British Forces. the Chinese authorities tere disposed to be more civil to the Americane than they would have been, anit tt was their @bvious policy that they should show to the Americans how peaceful and amicable they could be. Now, if Mr. Broce bad received the treatment which the Americaas recerved—that he had been conveyed to the capital, and Ghat, having arrived at Pekin, be was received as Mr. Ward was—that he was > bow his head to Ue ground in the presence of the Emperor: I must suppate that Mr. Bruce would have chown the some sparit as Mr. Ward did, and that de would have said he would mot submit to. any other ceremo- my lian that usually recoan Western Courts, a Bhat he woul noe submit toa ceremony which would be'a de- gradation to hss sovereign. The Chinese would have said to him, as they said to Mr. Ward—“Then what was the use | ef your coming bere; we cannot ratify the treaty here: we scounte! you to go back again.” Now, suppose all tuathaa faken place, what would have been Why, thise— ad instructions from your goverament 2o get the treaty ratilied: you not got that done; you have eubmitted to the Chines Fou have no: obeyed ‘the instructions which you recs from govern. ment, and a}! upon what excuse’ why this, that you found mresitance which you suppoted you could not over. ome.” Although there was not a strong British force at | | T suppose no one in this House | | { | thereon. the same time, the hono- | | Moors, about half a mile trom Williamsbridge. sorceniy snonigs hos O's Darposes mo the rmee at Newmarkei \ @ for having recourse to it. adding, 1 e » © vacenorge a} over, and Red Rook an immense colt, with plenty of bone and substance, combined “OG She astion of @ pony.

For the Chester Cup the Ame- rican colt Satellite has supplanted Longrange in the pre- mierchip; so that the United States are now in & postion to boast of having their importations first favorites for the greatest race and the greatest handicap in the world. Sa- ‘elite is stated to have run well in the United States, and in fact was the best threc year old they had in the coun- try. Consequently, with such a weight as Mr. Topham bas given bim, he must be avery dangerous opponent, for it would take aclippieg youngster to beat him pro- vided the improvement he makes is such as might be an- Ucipated. Fis ronring at Liverpool J should put down for nothing, as he was only sent thore to accustom him to crowd. Neither this horse nor Umpire, nor any of Mr. Ten Broeck’s team, are to be put into strong work until aiter the arriva! of that gentleman in England, which will be the first week im the cnsuing month. LUYELLUS, THE ANTAGONIST OF UMPIRE. [From the Manchester Guardian, Feb. 15.) Lupelius, who has recently come into such favor tor ‘both the two thousand guineas and Derby, was foaled at Mr. Halford’s, in Worcesterabire, who hired Loup Garou, the sire of Lupellus, for £300, after be left Hampton court. Mr. Halford considered him a dear bargain; but he hed ten yearlings by him, for three of which he was oifered £1,000. Lupellus himself belon; to & solicitor at Wan- tage, who thovght so highly of him that he put 1,000 guineas on his head, and offered "him at that price to Sir soseph Hawley, Jobn Day, and John Scott in turn, but withont success. The latter had heard of him, and gent Markwe)! down to see him. That wel! known Lincoln- shire Pe is ares him, but, of conrse, sent John Scott word about bis splint, and advised him to ask the price, which was the aforesaid “‘choker,”’ and the matter drep- ped. When theee negotiations failed, Mr. Parr made a auch emalter offer, but with three contingencies of £100 each for Lupellus’ three first wins, every one of which came off. His brother was also purchased by Mr. Parr, and is @ brown, with a beautiful well kni; back, but not so varinint in his style as Lupellue.

Ten Broeck’s Umpire (take 9 to 1.) ‘rom the London Post, Jan. 14.| A recommencement of the skating eeason took place on Sunday, and was continued yesterday, but not without se. yeral accidents. The thermometer, as registered at the Royal Humane Society’s house, in Hyde park, by Negretti and Zambra’s patent instruments, during Sunday night, was as low as 26 deg., being 6 deg. of frost. Yesterday morning the mercury rose to only 28 deg. at 9 o'clock, and at noon, when the sun was shining, only 124 deg. above freezing point; but in the evening the quicksilver was rapidiy descending, indicating a continuance of frost. The barometer stood @ 30.08 deg. The wind was from the north to northeast. The weather was fine, with occasional showers of snow. The ice on the Serpentine was described as being in such a dangerous condition that the icemen were ¢ the whoie ofthe day in preventing parties from venturing About three thousand persons ventured upon | the Round Pond Kensington Gardens, and whilst a number were skating, including some ladies, the ice parted asunder, and two genti@men became immersed, and were in the water over fifteen minutes. In their ex- i ertions to get out they were much cut. They were, how- er, eventually rescued by icemen Maskell and Pavey, and taken to the receiving house, where they had every attendance. The Lovg Water in Kensington Gardens were used by about one thousand sliders and skaters. Two tlemen broke through the ice on the river, and s in the water twenty mmmutes, and the icemen who went to assist also became immersed. They had to remain im that dat ‘ous position until a skate litter crawled along with a ladder. In St. James’ Park about twenty pergons became immersed. Sunday Skating on London Pond. (F Police Intelligence. Heavy Case Or EMMEZZLEMENT BY PORTERS. —Detectives Lee and Cornell on Thursday night arrested a man named Alfred Tarte, on charge of robbing bis employer, Mr. Wm J, Brown, of No, 28 Pearl street, Jt seems that for some time past Mr. Brown, who keeps a provision store at the above number, continually missed various articles in the grocery line, which disappeared in some unaccountable manner from the store. He gave the matter into the hands of the above ofticers, and they on Thursday night, while watching tho premises, detected Alfred Tarte, the porter, leaving the store at an unusually late hour, with some stolen property in his possession. On being arrested he confessed to have committed the robberies; but stated further that shortly after his first theft he had been de- tected by two employés of the place, named James aud Yanie! Barry, who, by threats of exposure, forced him to continue in his nefarious work. The property so purioin- ed he alleges was sold by the brothers Barry to a receiver pamed Harry Klinker, a grocer, at No. 408 Peari street. ‘he officers subsequently arrested Klinker and the two Parrys, and took all the accused before Justice Connolly who committed them to the Tombs to await examination. Akyst oF TWO ALLNGKD BURGLARS.—For gome time past. the county of Westchester bas been the scene of repeated robberies, and almost every night the dwellings in and about Williamsbridge have been entered, and considera- ble property stolen. Detectives Sampson and Devoe, velug calied ia that vicinity on Monday last, observed two | suspiciozs looking men on the road with two bags, ap- parently loaded with goo They accordingly over- hauled them, and to their suprise found that the contents of the bags were none otber than the proceeds of a rob- bery committed the night previous at the bouse of a — goods consisted of a large number of valuable ornaments, worth in all about $500.

On the eubjectof the Dred Scott decision, we gtve nearly Mr. Bates’ pwn words; and asa coincidence, and in order to show wyat slight diffe- rence there is between the opinions he entrtains on that question and the position taken by Senator Dyuglas on the game subject, we give by the side of it a pition ef the platform of the latter gentleman:— YROM SENATOR DOUGLAS’ PLAT- FROM MADAME Bates’ PLAT ¥ORM.

Matl hashad ata)ic with Gen. William Walker, of Nicaregua. The editor says the Goneral i still a firm believer im the necessity of a slave gyvernmen outside of this Union—Nicaragua, for instance—and re- gards Hon. S. A. Douglas as one of the mow devoted friends of that mode of slavery extension. Ht is a firm Deliever, too, in the success of Douglas before theCharles™ ton Convention. For Dickinson.—The Jeflerson City (Mo.) Examiner ha boteted the name of Hon. Daniel S. Dickinson, of thie Sate, for President. MiyyFsoTA FOR SEWARD.—The Black Republican Slate Convention of Minnesota directed their delegates to we Chicago Convention to use all honorable meané to secure Use nomination of William H. Seward. One Man YOR Cameron 1N Ispiaxa.—Among the dele- gates electtd to the Chicago Convention in the State of Indiana we observe the name of John & Robbs, Faq., & brother-in-law to Gen. Cameron, and a warm and openly avowed friend. Quite likely. Tux Froripa Dewocracy.—-A democratic meeting held in Franklin county, Florida, on the 18th ult, passed the following resolution:— Resolved, That we deplore the triumph of black repub- licanism, in the organization of the present Congress, and condemn the occurrences in Waehington, before and after the election of Speaker and Clerk, and think the time has arrived forthe ‘*people of these Uj States” to act, and by their voice amd power to hirl all “‘Forneys” to the ‘lower deep,” hrthe ‘sink of their political curse.” Taxxa Ix MississrPri.—The Natchez Courier, speaking of the law recently passed to increase the State taxes of Mis- eissippi, eays:— Taxes are thus raiged in ovr own State about $210,000, to come ou: of the ‘ots of slave owners and landholders. Of this sum $150,000 are appropriated to buy arme ; the rest will go to Virginie missions, Atlanta conventions, dis- union fuss generally, and democratic exigencies. And all this, too, without one dollar to pay interest on the State debt, or one attempt made by the majority to negotiate for its settlement. Be it remembered that this increase of taxes would more thin bave paid the interest on the Planter’s Bank bonds. The people ate taxed, and the discredit of the State never removed. Admirabic de mocracy ! Nor Postep ox tHe Coxsni7eTion.—Governor Goodwia, of New Hampshire, it is said, does not know of any clause in the constitution which requires the return of fugitives from service. Tun Price oy 4 Lecisiator.—The Albany correspondent of the Buflalo Courier, Dean Richmond's organ, ssyse@ state of things exists in Albany “without precedent in the legislative history of New York. Schemes for depredating upon the public are openly discussed, without even the ajlectation of concealment. Senators and Agsemblymen have their epecified price for supporting given measured, to such a degree that the price of a vote has risen from $3,000 or $5,000 to $25,000 or $30,000. It is not easy to ‘see how this obstacle is to be removed. The expectations created by this process have reached a point that no rea- sonable promige of gain—no promise that can come with. in seventy-five per cent of fulfilment—will satisfy.” Tix Democratic CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR OF PENNSYI- Vania.—The democratic nominee for Governor of Pean- sylvania, Hon. Henry D. Foster, is a citizen of Weatmore- land county. He possesses a bigh character as a lawyer, and has taken an active part in politics as an advocate of the democratic party. He was member of Congress from he Westmoreland district from 1843 to 1847, and a mem- ber of the State Legislature in 1855, 1855 and 1857. In 1858 he was again a candidate for Congress in the Nine eenth district, but was defeated by Hou. John Covode, his black republican competitor. ALABAMA ON THE ELECTION OF A Buack Reprerican Presi, pxxt.—The House of Representatives of Alabama on the 22d inst. passed resolutions, with but two dissenting votes, ordering the Governor to cal! a State Convention tn the event of “the election of a President advocating the principles and action of the party in the Northern States calling itself the republican party.”” The same resolution previously passed the Senate by a unanimous ‘vote. Tur Orrosmion Sovta.—There bas been considerable talk in Virginia, Missouri and some of the other Southern States, about uniting the opposition in all sections for the Presidential campaign. How the movement wil! succeed remains to be seen, but from the following resolution passed by an opposition meeting in Onslow county, North Carolina, we should judge tne project is looked upon with very little favor in that section :— Resolved, That we look upon the black republican party with abhorrence and with contempt, and pledge ourselves never to allow them to take the control of our liberties until our lives are extinct. AN OvrT-AND-UcTER.—One of the republican delegates to the Chicago Convention trom the Nineteenth Congrez sional district of Obio, says that if the nominating Con. vention puts up a conservative man he will neither vote for him there nor at home. He would support none but a live red-hot republican for President. A Tareatenine Atureps.—The § Standard, the organ of the Jerry rescuers, contains the following threay n regard to the nomination of old Madame Bates, of Mis souri:— To nominate Mr. Bates at Chicago would be a siicidal operation. Thai gentieman is a very respectavie citizel but he is not « republican, and his nomination wou! please only the rump of old line whiggery and Kaow Nothingism. 1! Bates is nominated at Chicago—a result of which We have no apprebension—a republican candidate would at once be proughit out in opposition. Doveras iN lovisiana.—The New Orleans Della says the delegation from New Orleans to the State Convention will stand—Douglas 5, anti-Douglas 23. Revrpiatine Hewer.—The Chicago Tribume, which mar- shais the black republican forces in the Northwest, and which but a short time since gave {ree currency to the doctrines of the “ Impending Crisis,’ now says:— Slavery is an established institution’ in some of the States of the Union. Wherever it has a foothold, its ex istence is maintained by virtue of State laws. The au- thority which enacted those laws is the only power com: Petent to repeal them. So far, therefore, as the abolition can do no- of slavery is concerned, the republican thipg—seeks to do nothing.

Sin—I deem it my duty to meet the affected ignorance and disbelief in the truth of my statement, made in the Board on Monday night last, and, by implication, the charge of attempting to levy black mail, contained in the card published by you yesterday, over the signature of Gideon J. Tucker, with a few simple statements of fact. While the name of Mr. Tucker was before the Bosrd of Aldermen for confirmation as President of the Croton Board, Wm. N. Mcintyre, formerly of the Daily News, but now one of the Bonded Warehouse contractors, in company with Dr. Tucker, brother of the nominee, met me in the Park. Mr. McIntyre called me aside, and told me that a certain sum of money had been placed in his hands to use, and he would give me $1,500 for my voteand influence in favor of Mr. Gi J. Tacker’s confirmation. Treplied, “Mr. McIntyre, money is a handy thing to have in the house, but I have been, going on five years, in ‘the Common Council, and have never yet allowed any man tocarry me in his pocket, and I do not intend to do sonow.”? He replied, “You need not be afraid of me; I have used money Pare in my bands in that way before, and it was none of anybody's business.” I replied, “Yes, Bill, 1 have drilied with you long enough to know you; bu: 1am notin that kind of business.’’ We then separated, and subsequently Mr. McIntyre called upon me twice or three times at my residence, and several times in the City Hall, ‘on one occasion calling me out of the chamber of the Board of Alcermen, snd renewed his offer of money. On every occasion after the first he offered $2,000 for my vote, bat I invariably told him that 1 would not accept his money ‘on avy consideration. Mr. Gideon J. Tucker himself called twice at my house, and offered to divide the patronage of the @ between the Mozart democrats and the republi- cans of the Board, if he could get the republican votes to contirm him. I told bim that if my vote elected bim I shoula expect to get a share of the patronage of tho department for my repubiican friends; bnt I never told him 1 would vote for him, nor that I would not, but that I would be governed by the action of ihe republicans in caucus, although, when he was first nomivated, I did feel favorably towards bim, as he told me Mr. Wood cid not want really to have him contimed, and Dr. Tucker spd Mr. McIntyre made similar state ments as to the Mayor, to falluence my ac- tion. Dr. Tucker, the brother o° the nominee, also offering the siderations es his brother for the republican support. J told him if we did confirm his brother we should expect get our share of the offices. ldid net agree to the propositions. The Mayor also OMered to reinstate my brother in-law in the fire-telegraph office, from which he bad removed him. Melntyre said he would give him a piace in the Custom House on the ‘26:b of January, and Mr. Tucker said he would give hima berth in the Croton Deparknent for my vote; bul I re- fesed all their offers, and did not yote for Mr. focker. 1 append the following statement of my brother-in-law, Abrabam i}.

A day or two following, John R.
