By the arrival of the Africa off Cape Race, we have news from Europe to the 30th ult., three days later than the accounts previously received. e most important points of the news are the an ncement of the capitulation of the garrison of Ancona to the Sardinians, and the confirmation » report of the partial repulse of the Gari- of last week. Cows were quiet. Veal calves were | steady. Sheep aad lambs were in fatr request, and steady, Swine were very plenty, active and high- er, sales ranging from 6jc. to Te. per pound. The | total receipts for the week (including 735 head beef cattle at Bergen Hill and 235 veal, which were sold on Sunday) are 5,386 beeves, 169 cows, 800 veals, 14,352 sheep and lambs, and 10,990 swine. ‘The cotton market was (rm yesterday, with sales of about 3,000 bales, closing firm on the basis of about Llc & 11'sc. for middliag uplands. The recaipta at the ports since the 1st September last have remshed 263,000 bales, against 259,000 in 1859, amd 234,000 in 1868. The ex- ports for the game period have reached 62,000 bales, | against 100,000 in 1850, and 65,000 in 1858. The stock on hand amounted to 351,000 bales, against 248,000 in 1859, ‘and 217,000 tn 1858. The foreign news imparted more firmness to the flour market, which was active, and closed with higher rates for common and medium grades. Wheat was firm and quite active, and purchased only for export and on speculation. Corn was tolerably Active, and the market firm. Pork closed dull and lower, with fair sales at $18 60 a $18 75 for mess, and at $14 55 a $14 60 for new prime, Sugars were steady, with sales of 900 bhds., at rates given in another columa. Coffee was steady; a public sale of 8,523 bags Rio, mostly peor quality, was made at 151/c. 4 16\\c., average 14c.;and 200 bags St. Domingo sold at 1Se, Freights were unchanged, while engagements were fair, The Result in Penmsylvania—New York the Foriorn Hope. The overwhelming defeat of Foster, the de- mocratic Union candidate for Governor in Pennsylvania, throws the whole weight of the Presidential battle upon New York. Pennayl- vania is irretrievably lost—the great West pre- sents no satisfactory signs of a rescue—the New England States have been abandoned to the enemy—our Northern conservative forces arrayed against Lincoln's election‘are, in fact, routed everywhere, except in New York, and New York is their forlorn hope. Weare thus, in all probability, very near the consummation of that reactionary aati slavery revolution which was commenced under the fatal auspices, to the democratic party, of poor Pierce’s administration. Poor Pierce was blinded by the splendor of his election. He could not comprehend it. He could not under- stand that it was the result of a general upris- ing of the conservative masses of the whole country in support of Henry Clay’s great com- promise measures of 1850. Had he accepted his election upon this basis, and adhered to the will of the people, he might have secured from his administration a new lease of power to the party supporting it of twenty years duration. But poor Pierce was not equal to the occa- sion. He was a vain man, and foolishly be- lieved in his own personal popularity; he was a caucus, small beer, managing politician, and believed that he could do anything with the by the troops of the King of Naples at The last mentioned affair was by no decisive, however, as the Garibaldians ined their positions and renewed the attack Pope has threatened to leave Rome, being advised to such a course by the Cardinals. * The commercial news by this arrival is favor- able. The cotton market was firm, while breadstulfs Lad in some instances advanced. By the way of New Orleans we have later ad- vice m Havana, but they contain no general news of interest. The sugar market was much the fame as before reported. The city was healthy. By the arrival of the bark George Leslie, Capt. Bradbory, at this port yesterday, we have accounts from ‘ks Island to the 26th ult. The Royal Kiondord of the 22d says:—‘We have had a brisk demand for salt this week, which has occasioned an advance in the price and an unusual firmness on the holders.

After a free interchange of opinion on the points urged upon their consideration, the Commitee of the Chamber agreed that the appli- Cation or memorial to Congress on the subject of Collisions at sea be so modified as to propose an international law to provide for uniform penalties flike applicable to British and American sh ia om eto both countries, or in the courts of both. TI mittee agreed that recommendations be 1 Congress to pass a law requiring our ships to carry lights, as demanded by the English law.

Having been nominated under the dic- tation of the Southern democratic managers at Baltimore, he imagined that he might venture upon any experiment, however desperate, that would secure him the decisive support of the South for a second nomination as the candi- date of the democratic party. There was an- other man, possessed of the eame fatal hallucina- tion at the same time, Mr. Senator Douglas; and between the pair of them and their cabinet and Senatorial advisers, they quickly tore the democracy into fragments with that nice little electioneering expedient for the Cincinnati Convention, the repeal of the Missouri compro- mise, Within a few wetke from the passage of that bill, the democratic party in the North was pul- verized under the heel of our popular elections. There was an instantaneous enti-slavery reac- tion in this section so terrible in its effects that it carried consternation into the heart of the Southern democratic camp. So it was that the Southern managing politicians of the party, in order to save the party from absolute annihila- tion, threw overboard, at the Cincinnati Conven- tion, both Pierce and Douglas, and took up a candidate who, from having been on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean during the session of Congress of 1855-54, could prove a satisfactory alibi on that never- tobeforgotten Kansas-Nebraska bill. That ahi saved the democracy in 1856, and, from that escape, with anything like a reasona- ble amount of common sense among their man- aging politicians, they might have made good their party's occupation of the government for two or three unbroken Presidential terms. No sooner, however, had Mr. Buchanan deliv ered his inaugural and proclaimed his Cabinet than the war of the democratic sections, and factions, and cliques, and rival Presidential as- piranta, commenced. to rule or ruin his adminis- tration. These disgusting and disastrous family squabbles, after again turning over,as in 1854, the House of Representatives iato the hands of the cpposition, culminated in the disgraceful scenes of confusion, rebellion, secession and dis- solution which marked the Democratic Conven- tions at Charlesten and Baltimore, the last of that utterly demoralized camp of spoilamen given over to self-destruction, And so here we are, on the very verge of a new order of things, simply involving the subjugation of the Southern States to the anti-slavery sentiment of the North, or the revolutionary alternative of an independent Southern confederacy. Tetween the broken and disordered columns | of the Northern conservative forces the united legions of the antislavery alliance bave thus far met with no check in their onward march, under the flag of Lincoln asd Hamlin. The “old guard” of Penasylwania, which rolled back the tide of victory in 1956, have been ignominiously routed, under the guidance of their treacherous leaders. There is no hope remaining for the defeat of Lincola but New York, and New York is a forlorn hope. The truly brave and patriotic, however, never sur- sder while there is even a forlorn hope. Let the various party elements concerned in our Union electoral ticket set to work sow as if the immediate issue of the salvation of the country were in their hands. To (his end let no more New York contribu- tions be wasted upon Pennsylvanta.

The big and little Forneys of Penns;l- vania bave ¢ their State into the enemy's possession pocketed the fees of their treachery. New York alone remains to con- front the enemy; but that we shall hare the Itberality, the labor, the activity and the fon among all the factions concerned neces 7 to save this State is exceedingly dovbtful. At all events, New York fs the forlora hope The enemy is strongly entrenched, and if be is to be driven out no time must be lost in clos- ing op the Union lines around him for the Gaal aesault Crisis of the Italian Qucstion—The Fall of Amcona. By the news from Europe which we publish to-day we learn that Ancona, the greatest and last stronghold of the Papal daminions, has ca- pitulated to the victorious Sardinians—an event which brings the Italian question to its crisis. This concludes the campaign aa far as the Pope’s army is concerned. It is very plain that the people are not with him on the ques: tion of his temporal sovereignty; otherwise it could not have been disposed of so readily by an invading army from Piedmeat. The difficulty, however, is sot yet solved. Garibaldi, the chief of a victorious revolution- ary army, has something to say on the subject, and he insists that the city of Rome, and every inch of Italian soil, shall be included in the re- volution. Victor Emanuel and Louis Napoleon are in favor of yielding “the Evrnal City’ to the Pope. There is the grand obstacle in the way of the solution of the question. It is no easy matter to dispose of Garibaldi. He may raise a storm over the other crowned heads of Burope which will hurl them from their throng dike the King of Naples, and a revolutionaty conspiracy may exist which is far deeper and more widespread than at present appears. On the other hand, Garibaldi cannot accomplish his purpose if the French and Sardinians oppose him, to say no- thing of the Austrians, unless through a sea of blood. The surrender of Ancona brings matters to a focus. It brings the King of Sar- dinia close to the conqueror of Sicily and Dictator of Naples, and the next mails from Europe will probably inform us whether the meeting will be hostile or friendly. On that depend the fate of Italy and the peace of Europe. Austria, crippled by the last war and trembling for her own safety, but still capable of a great effort, is couched, like an old sick lion, to spring upon the prey if she gets an opportunity. Nothing would so please her, nothing so favor her hopes, a8 to see Garibaldi and Victor Emanuel engaged in deadly fend. Her expectation in that case would be to step in and seize the lion’s share of the spoil. Na- poleon, however, is the great lion tamer—the Van Amburg who keeps the menagerie of royal beasts in order—and his wishes must be consulted. As usual, he will probably strike the decisive blow when the proper time comes. The Pope may solve the question himself by abandoning Rome. The obstinacy of himself and the uncompromising character of Cardinal Antonelli may precipitate the fall of the Papacy, and leave him not even the City of the Cwsars. But it is likely that the mission of General Guyon is to keep him there, by force if necessary. It would not do for the Emperor to let the Pope be under other protection than that of “the eldest son of the church.” One thing is clear, that the days of the Pope’s temporal sovereignty are numbered, after a sway of a thousand years. How it took its rise, an article in another column on the fall of Ancona explains to the readers. Its decline may be traced to the reformation, the art of printing, the progress of civilization, and the extension of human liberty. In the dark ages the Papal dominion did good service; it preserved the vital spark of civilization against barbarism. But it has served its purpose, its day has gone by, anda newer and a bigber civilization has superseded it, and Pio Nono may as well accept the de- crees of destiny and progress, for the words of Galileo are made good in more senses than one— “the world moves.” If the Pope will not move with it he must move out of it. If he should have to abandon Italy, and can find no safe and peaceful asylum in any other part of Kurope, let him come to America like other refugees and princes, and his followers will build for him a new Vatican, from which he can wield a spiritual sceptre over the Catholic world with greater Christian power than he ever possemed before, Activity or THe Arnicasy Stave Trape.—We publish in another column today a very inter- esting account of the slave trade as carried on off the west coast of Africa, and the connection of the United States squadron with that branch of the naval service. For some time past it must have been observed that the slave trafic has been unusually brisk, and to the credit of our government and our Gulf equadron, it must be said that its success has been effectively in- terfered with in several instances by the arrest of slavers and the liberation of their human cargoes. The extraordinary activity of the slave trade may be accounted for by two or three causes. The immense profits which it holds forth induce the Yankee shipowners and mer. chants of the Northern cities to embark in the traffic, either directly, by fitting out slavers on their own account, or indirectly, by furnish- ing ships to Spanish merchants for that nefa- tious business. It is @ fact worthy of note that nearly all the vessels engaged in the slave trade are fitted out in our Northern and Eastern cities, where the niggerloving black republi- cans most do congregate, and where the pecu- liar institution of the South always receives the most scathing denunciation. From the month of April, 1859, to February, 1560, no less than thirteen slave ships, known to have negroes on board, made successful trips from the Congo tiger to Cuba, almost every one of which sailed from some Northern port of the United States. There were twenty eight suspicious vessels off the African coast which were expected to leave with human cargoes after March of the present year, and, with three or four exceptions, they were all fitted out either in New York or some other Northern city. Thus we see the greed of gold, into which negro flesh can be so readily converted, completely overcomes all abhorrence of negro slavery. And this is one reason why the slave trade is in such a flourishing condition. Another reason is to be found in the fact that England, although she maintains a squadron on the African coast, still winks at the elave trade, and permits Spain to violate her treaties by allowing negroes to be landed in Cuba, the only «pot in which the slave dealer now finds a ready market for freah importations of human merchandise. ‘The fatal experiment of emancipation in the British West India colonies has convinced the Boglish government that cotton and suget can- aot be talsed withont slave labor, and by con- niving at the system of traffic, against which ft is ostensibly arrayed, it hopes to recuperate the resorrees of its broken down colonies; or, failing in that, it would gled'y rednoe our Southern States to the condition of the West Indies if it could; and heace the perpetral abuse heaped OCTOBER 11, 1860.—TRIPLE SHEET. beads He. 1D — upon Southern institutions by Exeter Hall. England could in one moment put a stop to the slave trade by insisting that Spain should fulfil her treaty stipulations with regard to it; yet England has not done so. Our government has no treaty on the subject with Spain; hence we can do nothing but intercept slavers in the Gulf and off the African coast, which our squadron has been doing very effectually of late. The Pennsylvania Election and the Lo- cal Issues, The long looked for preliminary skirmish to the great national battle to be fought atthe ballot box in November has finally taken place in Pennsylvania, resulting, as it will be seen by our returns, in the complete triumph of the black republican, or, as they style themselves in that State, the people’s party. As the suc- cess of Garibaldi with his handful of followers on the island of Sicily gave to his name a pres- tige that only made it necessary for his per- sonal presence on the mainland to silence the batteries of the Bourbons and cause their King to run from his own shadow, 60 this election bas settled in advance the Presidential struggle in the Keystone State, leaving barely a forlorn hope in New York, the last resort for the friends of the constitution and the Union. The October elections in that State have for the ast three Presidential contests been considered the turning point of the campaign. Thus the triumph of the democratic nominees, Hopkins for Canal Commissioner, and Woodward for Judge of the Supreme Court, in October of 1852, was admitted, by the politicians of all parties, to be the precursor of the election of Franklin Pierce, and the success of gpott, the democratic candidate in October, 1856, by a little over two thousand majority, was looked upon as the death knell to Fremont’s hopes, and unmistaka- ble evidence of the election of James Buchanan by the people in less than a month from that time. There are, however, other than national issues that have brought about the election of Mr. Cur- tin, questions peculiar to that State alone, which will not enter into the contest in November. In the first place, Mr. Curtin was a leading and active member of the whig party long before it went to ruin, and has never been a rabid repub- lican of the Seward school, but a representative of the conservative wing of the party. He was likewise an active and prominent member of the Know Nothing party in 1854, and during the canvass of that and the succeeding year took the stump in defence of those doctrines. The people’s party, composed of both republicans and Americans, having the prestige of success in the last two State elections, placed him in nomination in February, long before any of the national conventions assembled; the party lines were therefore drawn before the split at Charles- ton, or the nomination of Lincoln at Chicago: with antecedents precisely the same as the lead- ers of the Bell and Everett forces, it was impos- sible for the latter to transfer their rank and file to Foster, who had been their bitter oppo- nent. In fact, a number of the leading politi- cians who have supported and worked for the election of Mr. Curtin have placed themselves on record, by letter and speech, for Curtin for Governor, and Bell for President. The democratic nominee, Henry D. Foster, onthe other hand, had various obstacles to contend with in the ranks of the democracy. It will be remembered that he was a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in 1857, when Forney was acandidate for United States Senator, and opposed his election, not considering Forney fit for the position, It was the refusal of Foster and six other intimate friends to go into the caucus to nominate a United States Senator that gave to three other democrats a plea to bolt the caucus nomination and vote for Cameron, which elected him over Forney. This has not been forgotten by the Chevalier, and, whilst he has pretended to sup- port Foster, he and his friends throughout the State have done all within their power to elect Andrew G. Curtin. Aside from this, the demo- cratic party of that State have been weak at the knees ever since the attempt made by Douglas and poor Pierce to obtain the support of the Southern States, and have always been defeated whenever any person who had a hand in that transaction was placed in nomination. They were only saved in 1856 by the nomina- tion of Mr. Buchanan, who was out of the country and had no hand in the Nebras- ka bill. The split at Charleston and Balti- more set the democratic politicians by the ears, and between Douglas stumping the State against a union, and the blundering nonsense of the two State central committees, Foster has been placed first in the frying pan and then in the fire not kaowing which way to turn until the best portion of the campaign was over. With, therefore, the leaders of the different wings of his own party trying to kill him, and running against a man popular with all branches of the opponents to the democracy, it is a won- der that Foster has done as well as he has. But few of these issues will be found in the next contest; and, had Mr. Curtin’s majority been only five thousand or less, instead of fif- teen or twenty thousand, as it is, there would have been some hope, with a cordial union of the Douglas, Breckinridge and Bell factions on one electoral ticket, of carrying the State in November; but with the petty squabbles of the one horse politicians on the State committees, aided by Douglas and Forney, they have rolled up the majorities against them so large that the floating vote will more than make up for all that the Bell forces can reduce Curtin’s majority, and we may expect to see the majori- ty for Lincoln, who has not really half the strength in Pennsylvania of Mr. Curtin, far exceed that of the latter. Let the people in all sections now prepare for the rule of a republi- can President after the 4th of March next, for such is the decree of the Peansylvania elec- tion. Tae Patwce or Wates’ Reception ty Cana- DA AND Tite Untrep Stares.—The reception which the Prince cf Wales met with in Canada must, on the whole, have been exceedingly gra- tifying to the feelings of himself and suite. There was only one interruption to the general entbusisem which marked his visit there, and that was the Orange ebullition at Kingston and Toronto, the vulgarity and» bad taste of which have since reacted so severely on its authors. The effect of it will be to kill Orange- fem os an institation in the British Provinces as well as in Ireland ; for it fs evident that, soeial- ly se well ox politically, it is a dangerous ele ment in any community. In this country the l’rince has been every- where received with equal, if not greater, re- apect and cordiality of feeling. This has been due as much to his own simple and unaffected bearing as to the high opinion which is gene- rally entertained here of his excellent and sen- sible mother. So fay, with a single exception, there has been nothing to impair the satisfac- tory character of his visit amongst us. Need we say that it has been reserved for Philadel- phia, which disgraced itself by its rude and in- hospitable treatment of the Japanese Princes, to furnish that exception. The more respecta- ble portion of the Philadelphia people, as re- presented by their ball committee, exerted themselves to the utmost to sustain the credit of their city on this occasion; but their efforts have been marred by the vulgar and black- guard attacks made by the local press on per- sons who had received invitations to the ball. Philadelphia editors, like the Toronto Orange- men, are insensible to the obligations of de- cency and hospitality. Provided they can find a vent for their small passions and jealousies, it matters but little to them whether the occa- sion chosen for their exhibition be a fitting one or not. The Eventualities of Lincoln's Election, The election in Pennsylvania has passed, and the whole country will experience a feeling of relief. In its result it foreshadows that of the pending Presidential election, the only point still defensible being the State of New York, and this must be fought as the fight of a forlorn hope. Whatever may be the issue of that contest, the country will now begin to consider the even- tualities of Lincoln's election. These present a vast field for study and reflection, but there are a few prominent points which will overshadow and control all the others. Chief among these, again, stands the great fact that the cohesive power of the black republican party will have to undergo the test of its being in the administration of the government instead of in opposition; and a more severe and critical test could not be applied to it. If it can come successfully out of the strain which its own conflicting elements will subject it to, it may retain control of the government for twenty years tocome; but if it cannot pass this ordeal, Mr. Lincoln will find himself, withia a year, a President without a party, as completely as was John Tyler when the Har- rison administration lapsed into his hands. The first point in the political field before us is the fact that Lincoln will have been elected by a party counting not more than one-third of the popular vote of the Usion, which will have triumphed through the folly and imbeci- lity of the leaders opposed to it, and the dis- gust and indifference ef the conservative ele- ment. From this starting point the black re- publican administration will encounter the fact that it has not a working majority in either branch of Congress, nor an opposition capable of defeating its organization of the government and the conduct of its affairs, unless that oppo- sition be roused to cohesion through the radical and ultra character of its own men and mea- sures. The old democratic party—rotten through a lopg possession of power, and corrupt through the degeneracy of its organization—has fallen to pieces, and its old leaders and old party cries can never bring it together again. The Tam- manies and the Regencies that, all over the country, have eo long held control of a tri- umphant political party, have, like the monks of La Trappe, dug their own graves, and the people have willingly consented to bury them therein. A political revolution, initiated at Charleston, formalized at Baltimore, has to be consummated by the inauguration of a black republican administration at Washington, and the opposition to it will spring from the course it pursues. Which will triumph in the great and desperate contest of party measures and party policies that is soon to be begun at the federal capital will depend upon the wisdom, the patriotism and the conservative nationality that each may develope. One thing is self-evident: a party comprising only one-third of the popular vote cannot inflict permanent evil on the country. Should it attempt such a thing, it could triumph only through the mad- ness and folly of its opponents. From these general views we may pass to the contemplation of the particular cir- cumstances that will attend the black re- publican party in administration. That there are conflicting interests and tendencies of a political and personal nature in that party is abundantly evident, and these will be rapidly developed under the ripening sun of power. The policy of Lincoln’s cabinet cannot be so constructed as to suit the moderate republican and the fanatical abolitionists, the free trade men and the protectionists, the progressive Northwest and the reactionary Northeast; nor can Seward and Greeley, Sumner and Cameron, Helper and Dayton, Wendell Phillips and Mr. Grinnell, be breught into harmony in action. The antagonism of these several interests will be developed in the highest degree by the swarm of long waiting and hungry office seekers that will throng to Washington, clamor- ing for reward in the division of the spoils. This contest will begin immediately after it shall have been ascertained that Lincola ix elected, and the first fight will come on the ap- pointment of his cabinet. From this it will proceed to develope one of the most discordant and corrupt administrations—if we may judge from our experience in this and other States with black republican governments—-that this country has ever seen. From such a state of internal affuirs in the triumphant party we may not expect any very active prosecution of its supposed aims. If the conservative elements conduct their opposition to the Lincoln administration with anything like common sense, the interests of the South. and of every other section, can be protected much better within than without the Union. | As the Senate now stands, no great harm can | come to any interest throug! | President. It is only from the folly of its a black republican own leaders that danger can come to it; and it may thank these for any presumed danger it may anticipate in Lincoln's election, What danger was imminent when the Alabama Legis- lature passed the resolutions instructing the delegates at Charleston to secede in a certain event? What peril micht not have been avoid- ed bad Mr. Yancey remained in his seat in the convention, and fought the battle of the South in alliance with its Northern friends! Here we have the true and only danger in Tincoln's election; and it is the South that must look these eventualities In the face and meet them, but not by running away from them. The battle of the South can be fought in the North through legitimate and peaceful means, and it will tri- umph if Southern leaders will not pereist in abandoning the strugg’e before the blows that hurt begin to fal!. The seeds of decay ar? abundant in the present fanatical organization of their opponents, and placing them ia the los- beds of power will ripen them with astonishing rapidity. Wustam L, Yancey’s Srexcu.—We publiate this morning a full and accurate report of the very able speech delivered last evening at the Cooper Institute by the Hon. Wm. L. Yancey, of Alabama. The orator, while he ventilated bis peculiar ideas about the right of secession, which he claims for every State, performed a good work in placings before the view of the people of New York the important commercial bearings of the question whether the go- vernment is to be henceforth adminis- tered under the principles of the constitution or in conformity with those of Mr. Seward’s irrepressible conflict doctrine. The men of thia commercial metropolis and of this Empire State are called upon now to decide that question. The result of the Pennsylvania election haa evi- dently disheartened Mr. Yancey, and he virtu- ally gives up the Presidential contest. He ia indifferent now as to whom the people of thia State give their votes to—whether to Breckia- ridge, Douglas or Bell—previded only it be not to Lincoln. In regard to the question of secession, he declares that there is no such thing as the South seceding as a section. He does not know how she would go about it. But be announces his belief in the right of a State to go out of the Union if she thinks pro- per. Were this principle recognized and acted on, we might soon fall into the disorganized condition of Mexico. But whatever may be thought of Mr. Yancey’s notions on that poiat, his views on the commercial relations of the question are entitled to serious and grave coa- sideration. We commend them to the merchants and men of New York. Ponitics AND THE Money Marxet.—The New York Times is véry sensitive about the state of the money market, and the effect which the political situation of the country has upoa it. It deprecates the idea of any alarm on the subject; but, curiously enough, while it endea- yors to allay any excitement or want of con- fidence in one column, it fans the flames of distrust and alarm in another column by dilating upon the suspension of one of the city banks in a fashion calculated to make people very uneasy about all the other banks; for what befell one may befall all. It alleges that the bank shut up because of loams to the amount of fifty thousand dollars being made out of its capital to some politicians, and that this was the cause of the difficulty with the Clearing House. We wish the Clearing House would give usa little of the inside history of the other banks, and perhaps we would find that the Artisans’ institution does not stand alone in the category of mismanaged banks. It is very funny, however, to see the Ties attempting to allay the spirit of mistrust ia our banking and money affairs, which the preseat political relations between the North aad South have given rise to, by adopting the best possible course to increase it—that is, by charging gross mismanagement upon one of the banks. But that is our cotemporary’s quadri- lateral way of doing things—decrying the spirit of alarm in one column, and writing it up ia another. DESVATCHSS FROM TUB CHIRIQU! EXPEDITION, Wasturaron, Ost. 10, 1899. Despatches have been received at the Navy Depart- meat from Captain Engle, of the Chiriqu! expeditioa. ‘The expedition thus far has beea a perfect success, He ‘speaks of the immense coal felds which they have dis- covered in the various localities, and says that the har- borsare cosurpaseed.

Beuator Green, of Missouri, protests strongiy against the curtailing of the Salt Lake route of Julesburg, aod sending the Sait Lake and Deover malls round by Council Biufls, seven hundred miles out of the way, aad from four to five days’ delay each way.

While professing frien iship for Foster, even up to day of election, he was working secretly for the biack repubil- cans.
