A great many, people do not receive such shock? from such causes; nar when received, do tUy vr m'aate without immense results. What we behold ia a f&t and apparently spontaneous uprising of the spirit nf American nationality. Beneath that we behold the resto ration of that "primeval spirit of Protestant civ iiisation.in whish the country Ueif was origi nally croated. And still beneath that we be hold the renewal of that profound sense of the overwhelming ncoessity of our National U rion which wa the grandest outbirth of our National Revolution. These are the IhVand mericao Nationality." Protestant Civilisation, National Union. The country believed all three nl these are in danger. Men may say tbe conn try ia deluded. Buttbat does not alter the case so Ions as the country thinks otherwise. The country is resolved that all danger to all of them shall be thoroughly removed. Men may eay, the country is misled ; bat what of that, so long as the country is resolved to be Nation al, Protestant and United ? The country is thoroughly convinced that it cannot trust the perpetuation of its nationality, its Protestantcivilisation, and its Union as one people. anV loneer to the keeping of existmz par ties, in their ordinary action ; and so the oountry has, for the 'time at least, set aside all parties. Men may say Hits is mere fanatioism ; but what does tne oooctry-eare tor the sayings of men whom it rejects as unworthy of being trusted with its destiny in so great a crisis ? Tbe coun try resolves to perpetuate the union of these States. They who are faithful to tbe Union had better take ap the same great parable: they who are not, ought in the judgment of the coun try to be indiscriminately crushed. The ceun try determines that its Protestant civilization is its original, its most precious, and its most vital inheritance ; and believing it to have been betrayed, it proposes to surround it with ade quate safeguards. They who participate, in these opinions will applaud this profound pur pose ; they who conspire to destroy that Pro testant civilization, or who abet, or sell them selves to those who do, must abide the political overthrow which so justly and permanently awaits them. The country cherishes its glori ous nationality, and believing it to be endan gered, it has risen up in its majesty to assert, to vindicate, and to develope still more power fully the nationality without which the country iuelf has no destiny no mission on earth. - They who are so lost to every exalted instinct, as to be insensible to tbe grandeur of s-uch hopes as Ood has set befcre us, may &ino det pise an tae en oris py wnicn mose nopes are to ne reanxea. eertneiess, tne country wm au end.

That Htbe way, in which all grand movements oc cur ; even the Kingdom of Heaven does not come with observation. - But the demagogues, the priests, tbe mobs, the foreign papists and infidels, are shocked beyond endurance, because the handful of devoted men who first combined to save tbe country, if that were any longer possible, did not call the whole of them into council! For what? In order to be murder ed ; or, if not murdered, traduced, and the very end for which they were willing to be traduced, and, if necessary, murdered utterly defeated? Were they called into council when their ene mies bought and sold thm ?

If the n&tion&nty of America is to be sus tained, if the Protestant civilization is to be per petuated, it the tederal Union is to be preaerv ed, there is but one possible method of dealing with tbe subject. iae organised power ot so- ctetjr uiuft oe taken out oi tne caods ot those wbo have betrayed these vast interests, and must be put into the bands of those who wiil cherish them. Public opinion is the only in strument by which this great change can be effected. That enlightened, the first step of the revolution is political ; the second is legal. The first step involves the organization and the triumph of a party commensurate with tho country, tbe American party ; and that invol ves the overthrow of every party that resists its ultimateobjects, or resists the necessary means of obtaining these objects. Indeed, if this step were tolly achieved, it would be ot less conse quence to take a second one ; since the laws. though bad, are endurable; and society is safe as soon as it has finally put out of power all men and parties, hostile to our nationality, to our Protestant civilization, and to our federal Union; out of power, with an overthrow inca pable of being repaired And this is the reason why this great move ment excites such excruciating bitterness of hate, in its political aspect, on the part of all against whom it is directed. Its success is seen to be a fanality and a fatality to them. For na tions do not immediately incur the same peril twice, nor do profound national movements speedily exhaust their force. The Democratic party has survived the., storms of a hundred years. The American party, strong enough to swallow up not only Democracy itself, but eve ry other feebler excitement, will live forever. The legal revolution, therefore, which will con summate the political, will be only but neceesa rily the outbirth of its spirit. Assaults upon the Union of these States, whether from the North or tbe South, must cease. Conspiracies against the Protectant civilisation of the coun try between demagogues on one side and papal and mhdel loreigners on the other, mut ter minate.

We will not stop to argue whether this benevolence and humanity was an error, or whether it would have been happier tor the country had severer restrictions been thrown around tbe right of citizenship. It is enough to know that the privileges have been abased; that experience has shown the foreign influx to be dangerous and turbulent; that im migrants bring with them religious prejudices, deeply instilled against us, as a nation of accurs ed heretics; that liberty with them is akin to licentiousness ; that accustomed to tyrannic con trol they regard republican liberty as unres trained by all law, and finding upon their arri val here that proper restraints are enforced, in their unbridled anger they strike at the ark of our safety and attempt innovations, and cause lessly interfere with that wise administration of public affairs, which is the sole guaranty of a successful government. In fine the serpent has entered our Eden, and tempted them to vio late the only restraint imposed upon them. It matters not, therefore, to us, whether they volun tarily exile themselves, or are judiciously curbed or expelled so that they be arrested before thev put forth their hand to ''take also of the tree ot lite and eat and live forever! " We object, I 41. ' i . r r r 1 . 1 . however, to the implication of Mr. McGee, that his countrymen have not been welcomed and honored ; we object to the argument that selfish motives actuated the generous conduct of our fathers towards foreigners, for webeheve that immigration would have been as great without other incentives than the peace and olentv which blessed our land ; and we object to the false assertion that the American movement is driving the Irish homo tc Ireland,. on account of its being a crusade against their religion. l,et them stay it they wish to be oo-sharers in the natural blessings of our lund ; let them eo. in God's name, if thev claim to be co-inheritors of rhe political rights our fathers wrested from their lathers! Ii not eatisned with the perfect Bocuruy oi uie, noerty ana property, which our laws guarantee to them, they haye lost conli - dence in American legislation, and desire to make it Celtic in its tone and character, it is better, far better they should return home home, where their hearts have ever been, and home whero thev can re kindle the old deserted ti rices and uve unshackled by any laws but tho j mandatf of their imperious task masters.

Among this number, none will attract more attention than Mr. Iloraco Greely of the N. Y. Tribune. At present he is likely to be the greatest curiosity contributed by this country to the Paris exhibi tion. An intelligent American, who is willing to sacrince to a miserable abolition crotchet the greatest Republic of modern times, must be curiosity in foreign lands We shall probably have, however, at the Paris exhibition, a more patriotic and rational repre sentative both of New York and the UnioD, in Hon.

The Union would fain seduce Virginia newspapers to join it in this defence of Reeder this alliance with Greeley and Gar rion Aid Societies, and this covert denuncia tion of brave Southern settlers in Kansas, lhe attempt is vain and idle. Those Virginia jour nals which would join the base alliance dare not, and those which dare would not." Tbe Union is cenerallv believed to be not in different-to the fleshpota of Egypt, or in other words to have a hankering alter the loaves ana fishes, or to speak more plainly, to know which side its bread is buttered. Upon this subject, the Examiner is absolutely savage. See how it comes down upon the Washington Union : "The South well understands the Washington Union. Out of 122 members already elected to the next House of Representatives from the North, but 15 are Nebraska Kansas men upon whom the South can rely. " All the rest are Free-soilers-avowed, committed and uncom promising. It is meet for the Washington U- nion to look tothe flesh pots, and to keep an eye open to the public printing. The South un derstands that matter; and knows well enough that every age has its Arnold, and every cause its Iscariot." But the next sentence is the bloodiest yet. The Examiner not only strikes down its adversary, but raises a veil of triumph, flourishes his hatchet over his head.: and proceeds to scalp and tomahawk him after a fashion that would have filled Tecumseh's heart with envy and made the bent "brave" of the Potawatimies throw aside his knife in despair. Just listen "So that we have this request to make of the Washington Union newppaper, to wit: that it do the Virginia Democracy the favor not appro vingly to mention their cause, their State, or candidates again, while our election is pending We mean to triumph in Virginia, in spite of every incubus, let and hindrance : but we desire no niA Trnm thA Wn'ahindtnn ITninn Wa lid nnt risen.

This ia the ex ample ho proposes to junta!., and bo-hold how aufwessful he is : "Virginia doe n')t rn?an to condemn her own peopl in Kansas. The issue of the Union is to be tested on the soil of that joung State ; and ahe will not play traitor to her own flesh and blood by allying herself with Forney and Ree der. Tha brave Southern men wbo have gone to Kansas always intended to act honestly, law fully and moderately, but firmly and effective ly. They met fraud and cunning, artifice and dishonesty in the bold,: manly way. There were no established courts : and settled laws to ap peal to, and they scorned trick and artifice. They met the Abolitionists and Aid Societies in the only maneer they could meet them in a wild count without adopting their own base tactics. They met them as brave, honest pio neers, looking to the interests of posterity and to the future welfare of nascent States, always meet speculators of the hour, wbo study only selfish gain, and would turn the fairest regions of earth into perpetual desolation to serve their own despicable interests.

This new judicial tribunal has been called into existence by an earnest desire on the part ot tbe government to aid those wbo have lust claims upon, the treasury in asserting their rights. lhe present law, though tar from being perfect, lays the foundation of one of the most useful courts known to our national laws. Its present jurisdiction is, however, limited to the following classes of cases : 1. Claims founded upon any law Congress. 2. Or upon any regulation of an executive i department j 3. Or upon any contract, express or implied, i with the government oi the United States i A 1 .1 U : a 1 .!! Although its decisions are not final, still there can be little doubt that they will be approved by Congress when supported and sustained by such cogent reasons as usually characterize the j udgments of our judiciary. If defects are found in the present law, Congress wili readily cor rect them, and thereby render the court as use ful as practicable. As nowconstituted, it consists of three judges, s solicitor, two clerks, and a mes&enger, whose duties are maiuly indicated in the statute. The solicitor; represents the .government, and perforins those duties usually committed to at toruevs and counsel in the sunerior tribunal of the several States. The President selected ; men forjudges distinguished for talent, expe- . nence, ana learning, ana whose long service in ; the high judicial stations in their respective States has eminently qualified them to preside in this. They are in all respects fitted for e .ats in the bench of the Supreme Court. The 1) usinesti before it will be conducted in a manner equally dignified and appropriate, and nmst command the eame universal resnect. ' lis rules, we understand, will require the same j c.ire and attention, and secure the same regu larity 01 proceedings, as tnose ot the highest tribuualn, State and national. It is a great mistake to suppose that this court will, in its mode of proceeding, resemble a board, or com laittee, where all sorts of evidence, illegal as well as legal,; may be intioduced, and where personal application and importunity can be uiade to individual members with the hope of tecuringtbe desired result. We are persuaded that this court will only act upon such evidence n would be legal and competent between indi vidual litigants, taken in conformity with rules to be established, ar.d which will be applicable alike to all caes, and that the mode of hearing the partiee and their counsel will be substan tially the same as in the Supreme Court of the United States. We understand that the judges are now engaged in preparing tbe necessary rules of practice to control and forms to be observed in proceedings in cases to come before the court. This, we think, is time wisely spent, and which must greatly promote the conve nience of the bar and their clients. The cases a4 before it will not be less complex or important than those in the Supreme Court, and must necessarily require the same talent and learn ing on the part of the counsel as in that high tribunal, while the duties of the judges will not be less laborious or incessant. Although many may be disappointed in realizing their expectations before the court, we have every confidence that its judgements will be of a character so clear and conclusive as to satisfy an aistnterestea persons, ana command univer sal public respect.

A still narrower escape for myself individ unlly happened on aDotber occasion, not long Colonel Hunt, the Governor of the Fort of Tan nah, about seven or eight miles from Bombay ; and as I had an appointment at home in the morning, and the night was remarkably fine, - O ' with a brilliant moonlight, I declined the.-hos-pitable invitation of my host and hostess to remain with them during the night, and or dering my palanquin to be ready at ten o'clock. left Tannah at that hour tor com Day. a great portion of the way wa over a .level plain ot j some extent ; and while we were in the midst j of this, the bearers, of whom there were eight. four to carry, and four for a relay, with two mussauljees, or lantern pearers, who carry tneir lights in the moonlight as well as in the dark, as a matt r of etiquette which it is thought di respectful to omit in short, the wbole party ot ten in an instant disappeared, scattering them selves in all directions, and each running at bis utmost speed. I was perfectly astonished at thi9 sudden halt, and wholly unable to conjec ture its cause, and all my cilling and iemon strance were in vain. In casting my eyes be hind the palanquin, however, I saw, to my horror and dismay, a huge tiger, in full career towards me, with his tad almost perpendicular. and with a growl that indicated too distinctly the intense satit-fac'i in with wh'.ch he antici pated a savory morsel for his hunger. There was not a moment to lene, or even to deliberate. To get out of the palanquin, and try to escape, would be running into the jaws ot certain death. To remain within was the only alter native. The palanquin is an oblong chest or box, about six feet long, two feet broad, and two feet high. It has four short legs for rest ing it on the ground, three or four inches only . .1 i ' t. i . . i i a a Dove tne soil, xis uouom ana aiues aro aw. and its top is gently convex, to carry off the rain. By a pole projecting from the centre oi each end the bearers carry it on their shout ders, and the occupant lies stretched upon a thin mattress on an open cane bottom, like a couch or bed, with a pillow beneath his head The mode of entering and leaving the palan quin is through a square opening on each side, which, when tho sun or rain requires it, may be closed by a sliding door ; this is usually composed of Venetian blinds to allow light and air, in a wooden frame, and may be fastened, if needed, by a small brass hook and eye. r.v ery thing about the palanquin, however, is made as light as possible, to lessen the labor of the bearers ; and there is no part of the panellipg or sides more than half an inch thick, if so much. All I could do, therefore, was in the shortest possible space of time to close tbe two sliding doors, and lie along on my back. 1 had often heard that if you can suspend your breath, and put on the semblance ot being dead the most ferocious of wild beasts will leave you. I attempted this, by holding my breath as long as possible, and remaining as still as a recumbent statue, but 1 found it of no avail The doors were hardly closed before the tiger was alongside, and his smelling and snorting were horrible. He first butted one of the sides with hid Lead, and as there was no resistance on the other, tho palanquin went over on its beam ends, and lay perfectly flat, with the cane bottom presented to the tiger's view. Through this, and the mattress, heated no doubt by my lying on it, the odor of tho living flesh came out stronger than through the wood, and the snuuing and smelling were repeated with in crea?ed strength. 1 certainly ex pected every . or .Ko. ,, U' r.-.f! his paws, he would break in some part of the palanquin, md drag me out for his devouring. But another butting of the head against the bottom of the palanquin rolled it over on its convex top, and then it rolled to and fro like a cradle. All this while I was obliged, of course, to turn my body with the revolutions of the palanquin itself, and every time I moved I dreadeJ lest I should provoke some fresh aggres sion. The beast, however, wanting sagacity, did not use his powerful paw as I expected; and giving it up in despair, set up a hideous howl of disappointment, and slinked off in the direction from whence he came. I rejoiced, as may be well imagined, at the cessation of all sound and smell to indicate his presence ; but it was a full quarter of an hour before I had courage to open one of the side doors, and put my head out to see whether he was gone or not. Happily, he had entirely disappeared, and I was infinitely relieved. The next course to be considered was, whether I should get out and walk to Bombay, a distance of four miles, now near midnight, or whether I should again close mj doors and remain where I was. I deemed this the safest plan, and remained accordingly, when, about half an hour beyond midnight, all my bearers returned, with several peons, or foot soldiers, and. muskets, pistols, lances, and' sa ores enough to capture and kill a dozen ti gers ; but these were too late to be of any use. They made many apologies for leaving me, but said that, as one of them would be certain of being seized by the tiger if they remained, and no one could say which, they thought it best that all should try at least to escape, and I readily forgave them; after which they bore me home with more than usual alacrity, and I enjoyed my repose all the more sweetly for the danger I had escaped. A Modern Cinderella. The Salut Public, of Lyons, contains the following tale, the truth of which it guaranties: About two months ago, M. de Rhet , a gen tleman of large property in the neighborhood of this city, on leaving tbe theatre after a per formance of the Etoile du Nord, picked up a white satin shoe. On examining it he found that it must have beep made for a foot remar ably small and elegant. He asked the box keepers if any one hud announced the loss of the shoe, but was answered in tbe negative. He took it home with him. The more be saw it the more he admired it; and he jumped to the conclusion that the owner, having so small a foot, was, in all probability, extremely beau tiful. He showed the shoe to all his friends and acquaintances, and caused them to make inquiries after the owner ; but he could gain no clue to her. At last it struck him that, as tbe person wbo had lost it could not have walk ed home, he might gain some information from the cab-drivers. After eight days snent in in- ' quiry he found a driver who remembered hav ing driven a young woman who had lost her shoe in the Hue Thomas?in. M. de Rhet thereupon made inquiries at every house in that street ; and he at length discovered a young work woman who blushingly confessed that the shoe was hers. As he anticipated, he found that she was remarkably beautiful, and on inquiry be learned that her character was very good. He fell in love with her, and in a few days they were married. The Wilmington Herald exclaims as fol low : "Think of Corn selling by the cargo here to $1,20 per bushel, and Hay, if any can be ob tained from dealers at all as a favor, at $1,75 at $2,00 per 100 lbs 1 Flour, up. Rice, up. Meal, up. Butter, at a great distance." Matters are not a whit better here in Wash ington. Every article mentioned above sells at a price which indicates that the laboring man and the mechanic need expect nothing much short of lingering starvation famine 1 We do not speak thoughtlessly ; the prospect before us is well calculated to terrify those who have-the courage to contemplate it. Corn, &, arrives and departs now and then, but few of tbe per sons who need it most can lay their hands upon it. Flour, $15 a $16 per barrell Butter, 40 a 45 cents per pound 1 Bakers' loaves, the length of a man's hand and the circumference of his wrist, and made of black flour at that !

But 1 once knew a man for veracity noted, Who said that his horse waa lull eighteen feet high, When all the bystanders, with one accord, voted, You must have meant hands, sir, or else, sir you lie!"
