SATURDAY MORNING, SEPT. 8, 1855. characters of Washington and Jefferson ; when the historyof their lives proves, that they were too well bred gentlemen to abase and insult, to their faces, on account of political difference of opinion, those who had met to do them honor or to extend to them the hospitalities of social life. The exceotric Tom Marshal said that the history of Tyler's administration would be writ ten in a parenthesis. Not so with Pierce's. Its festering corruption and grinding tyranny have been so smothered, and glozed over with Pharisaical cant and hypocricy, that the histo rians pen can never portray its wickedness. Like the hidden recesses of the oharnel house, it will be pointed at in all future time, as too nauseating and hideous for either examination or description. We have, however, one consol- with various articles, then set on fire, and so dragged through theeity like charriots of fire. The house of the banker E-caudon was ah o entered and some damage done to it not more perhaps than $4,000 or $5,000, before the tnili tary arrived and fired on the pejple, killing four and wounding ten. The other Ministers and objects of the popu lar vengeance had taken the precaution to re move most of their property and secrete it in some place of safety. Besides those above mentioned some forty were killed and as many wounded by the mili tary during the proceedings. On the following day the statue of Santa An: a in the market place was thrown down from its lofty pedestal, and the people wanted to drag it through the streets, but were prevented, and four persons were shot on this point. On the evening of the 15th, the new Govern ment sent, under Gen. V ega, expresses to the PRESIDENT PIERCE'S VISIT TO WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS. One of the most humiliating signs of our downward tendency, and degeneracy as a na tion, is the picture presented by President Fierce, in bw late visit to the Virginia Springs. Taking "If all together, the incidents of the journey his demeanor on the way and the tone of his address, in reply to his worthy con frere John Tyler; and it presents an instance of mock pretension, mountebank royalty, and partisan bigotry, disreputable to the country, and deeply mortifying to American pride. In the first place he affects kingly exclusive ness io traveling in a separate apartment in the cars, surrounded by bis toadies, in order to avoid contact with the ignoble herd. But he plays the King so awkwardly, as to resemble a King's jester in feudal times, rather than the King himself. He wears a calico shirt, much more in character for a black-leg going to a horse-race, than for the President journeying to recruit his health. Bat it seems the people at the White Sulphur, although willing to do him the honor which they seemed to think was due the official position he held, yet instinctively selected John Tyler to welcome him. This was most appro priate, and well ordered. Of all the men that ever lived, Tyler it the most perfect embodi ment of treachery, palavering pretension, and empty-beaded conceit. And what a speech of welcome and what a reply I What a tissue of miserable balderdash ! What a disgusting ex hibition of "you tickle me, and I'll tickle you." We suppose the company assembled must all have held down their beads, lest, if they look ed up, they should laugh outright in each oth er's faces. According to Tyler's speech, there never has been in this country teiore such a love of a President as Pierce saving and ex cepting bis own precious self. And according to Pierce, Tyler's administration would be glo rified in history, because Tyler had discovered that he (Pierce) was a great man ! How these two delectable worthies must have tickled, and nudged each other, when they got off to them selves, and talked of the immortality which they had bestowed on each other 1 Bat this harlenuin exhibition was not the most humiliating part of the programme. Al though this honor tendered to the office, was not confined to one party, but was tendered by the assemblage among whom were men of all political complexions, President Pierce could not elevate himself to the requirements of the occasion. He could not appreciate his position as the President of a great people ; but exhib ited himself as the bitter and vindictive parti san. He could not understand that social cour tesy and good-breeding required he should, for the time, lay aside the virulence of the bust ings but took advantage of his irresponsibil itv to insult those who bad eone forth to honor - j the office he held. His partisan vindicttvenesa was the more contemptible, because, instead of openly and boldly avowing bis purpose, he tried to dig nify his taunts in high sounding and soph omoric language. No one can read his speech carefully without discovering a covert and sneak - ing assault on the American party. No matter what he might have thought of the wisdom or policy of the principles of the American party ; yet, one would have supposed, that it would have received his forbearance at least seeing that the intense American nationality of the or der was calculated to elevate and dignify the office of President, which be held. No matter what might have been his individual opinions one would have thought, that the courtesies recog nized among gentlemen would have sealed his mouth against allusions to party knowing, as he must, that many of those who were welcom ing him belonged to the American organisation. But no, the occasion, the circumstances, the as sociations could not elevate him beyond the as pirations of a pettifoggerin a village meeting in New Hampshire. It only shows what small materials the man is made of how the country was cheated in his election how it is disgrao ed by bis conduct. The President of this great nation, who ought to leave partisan bigotry be hind him, when be enters the doors of the White- house, insulting two millions of freemen, be cause they esteem their own American brethren higher than they do foreigners because they love religious freedom, better than they do the corruption, the tyranny, and the superstitiou of Romish priestcraft. He prates about "religious freedom," when it is well known that be has been for months the mere agent of Jesuit intolerance, in the proscription not only of officials, but of manual laborers, because they contended for the privi- TUE S reflection. Even if it be the curse of our various Governors of the Departments or States, country to be stillfurther ruled by another locufo- co dynasty, still, it must be a vastimprovement upon the reign of Piereedom. This adminis tration, is contemned even by the great body of respectable and conservative Democrats of the country, as Were the filthy Harpies of classic story by the refugees from fallen Troy. With the exception of the office-holders, jobbers, con tractors, expectants, " by authorities," and would-be leaders, the Pierce dynasty is de nounced by their own nominal party, from one end of the Union to the other. We cannot be worst ed and we may possibly be bettered, in ex changing this dynasty for another of the same nominal party. We have not the fears of the Fox in the fable in swapping one set of flies that are gorged for another set that are hun gry but it will be exchanging for a set whose eipacity for destruction may possibly have some limit, a set whose insatiate maws can never be filled. ggf The New Orleans Picayune presents the following account of the late revolutionary pro ceeding in Mexico : It appears that Sunta Anna left the city of Mexico on the 9th instant, at the head of 1.400 men, under the pretext of quelling the revolution in the State of Vera Uruz. On arriving at the for tress of Perote he threw off the musk and un veiled his real design. He there issued a procla mation, depositing the Government in the hands of Pavoni, Vega, and Salas, and immediately departed with all speed to Vera Cms. His last day's march was lrom fuente by cireuitous routes, (say tourteen leagues,) and he arrived in Vera Cruz on the night of 15th instant. On the day alter bis arn?al aanta Anna en deavored to go on board the Mexican war steam er Iturbide, but being prevented by the stue of the weather he embarked on the night of the 17th, and, with bis family, it :s supposed, pro ceeded to Havana. In the mean time all Santa Anna's Ministers at the oity of Mexico took French leave, and Gen. Carrara, at the head of the only troops left in the city, say seven, hundred men, pro nounced for the plan of Ayutla, naming Carrer a, President pro tern., and Vega commander-in- chief of the troops. In Vera Crus, en the meat of the lout, part of the regiment ot Ires Viejas pronounced and killed one of their officers, and then left the oity over the wall to join La Llave, who was'in the vicinity. Next morning the remainder of the regiment, say two hundred men, were marched out of the city, by order ot uen. Corona, to pre vent further disturbance. Uo the same day, Sunday, the 19th, the city of Vera Crus and the troops pronounced in favor of the plan of Ayut la, Gen. Corona still retaining the command, waiting for orders from the Provisional Govern ment. On the 20th all was quietin Vera Cruz; and no further disturbance was looked for till the 22d, the day La Llave was expected to enter the city -.l l ?!C- Willi ms pronuuciuuoB, to wuiou serioun uiyev tions were raised, as his troops, it was feared, might create disorder. On the night of the 21st, however, at half-past seven, a disturbance occur red among the troops the. Regiment of Guides and the 2d were ordered out, and several shots were fired. The pronounced troops in Fort Coneepcien fired the cannon loaded with grape, and several of the guides were killed. 1 he guides then took the fort by assault, after which all became quiet, and remained so till the sailing of the Orizaba. ' 1 ' Since the foregoing was written we learn that Carrera was appointed Provisional President for six months. ' .. " A quarrel for the Presidency it is said, is likely to ensue. The pleasure ot Alvarez and Comonfort is not known, and they will have a say in the matter. We find in our papers lrom the city or Mexico some accounts or tne events, wmcn preceaea the results we have stated above. The condition of affairs for some time past has been such as to lead to the expectation of all that has taken place. People began to speak very freely and private meetings took place in the bouses of members of the Liberal party. Since the 8th. indeed, these proceedings were commenced, and the probability of the. depar tare of Santa Anna was discussed. J. be sensa tion increased as hours passed, and reached the highest pitch when a decree under bis authority made its appearance nominating a triumvirate to act during his absence until he should arrive at Vera Cruz. On the 10th the Heraldo and Single XIA. newspapers began to publish remarks on the actual condition of affairs, breaking through the bonds in which the press bad hitherto been held. They both published the plan of Agutha, and orecioitated the issue ot a pronunciamiento in the capital, which was at first proclaimed by a part of the garrison, and in the evening by the population, who adopted it. t On the night of the 12th the commission ap pointed by Santa Anna put at liberty the gen- . . . . . 3 1 O tlementnat naa oeen unpnsoneu oj oqvauu, who were some sixty in number, and were the principal agents In causing the general adoption of the plan of Agutha. v About tne mmaie oi me iouowiuk uay a imbck- ini of the noDulace took place in the Alameda, numberiner from o.uuu to iu.uuu. xoey-noauy confirmed the elan of Avutla. with the addition of making a provision for the organization of requesting them to pronounce, and at the same time they sent to the commander of the Liberal force to inform them that every thing iiad been regulated according to their view, and to re quest them to come to the capital alone, leaving their forces behind them, for the purpooe of electing officers and arranging the Government. The Liberal party, however, was not satisfied. ! and sent on tocthe commanders telling them to I bring their forces, and that they would then be able to carry out their plans.. J. he new Uovernment was. in fact, oomnoaed of a large proportion of the members of the last one, and closely united with. the church, for which reason the Liberals could not adopt it. D. Luis de la Rosa, late Mexican Minister to Washington, has been appointed Governor of Puebla, to the great satisfaction of the Liberals. Sr. Lizardi had claimed $2,000,000 for bonds and valuable papers burot, and, according to a private note, the American Minister says he has lost his rights, as be accepted the Cross of Cau dal upe from Santa Anna. The press was free, and the Verdad, the Mon itor Republican, the Patra, and the Revolution had re-appeared. CORRESPONDENCE. It wilV be seen from the following correspon dence that Ch. C. Raboteac, Esq., has consent ed to deliver an- address before the Raleigh Typographical Society, at its First Anniversary to be held on the 15th inst : Ralbioh, Sopt. 1st, 1855. Dear Sib : We, the undersigned, were ap pointed a committee to seleet a speaker to deliv er an address before the Raleigh Typographical Society, at its first anniversary, on the 15th instant. The committee have selected you to be the Speaker on that occasion, and hope you will do them the favor to acccept. Tours very respectfully, J. W. Chadwick, 1 W. T. Womblk, I A. D"G. Tumbro, Com'tee. J. N. Bunting, j W. W. White, j To Ch. C. Raboteau, Esq. Raleigh, Sept. 3d, 1855. Gentlemen: Your note informing me that I have been selected to deliver an address upon the Anniversary of the Raleigh Typographical Society, on the 15th instant, has been received. The short time allowed for preparation might well deter me from responding to your wishes, in this respect ; but the honor conferred upon me by the Society heretofore, renders tne un willing to decline any duty imposed : though I very much fear I shall hardly be able to justify your expectations in the selection. Yours respectfully, &c, CH. C. RABOTEAU. To Messrs. Chadwick, Womble, Tumbro, Bunting and White, Committee. ,The "Standard" says, "will the Know Nothing papers of the State publish Mr. Bar ringer's reply to Mr. Rayner ? We shall see." We do not know what the Know Nothing pa pers may , do. We publish it but will the Anti-American papers (or if it suits the "Stan dard" better, will the anti-Know Nothing pa pers) of the State publish Mr. Rayner's letter, and the notes of Messrs. Haugbton, Singeltary, Crudnp and Cherry, in to day's "Regii-ter ?" Will the "Standard" publish these m tsf fWe shall see 1" The publication of every thing bearing on the Question, is necessary, to enable the public to iudze fairly and impartially. Doea the "Stan dard" wish its readers to decide upon a ful knowledge of all the faots, or upon a limited view of only a portion of the evidence ? We are not the assailant of Mr. Barringer. By no means. But we think it due to Mr. Rayner, that the publio Bhould see, that if be arrived at erroneous conclusions in regard to the object and purport of Mr. Barringer's state ment, other intelligent and honorable gentle men drew the same inference that he did. "FIVE MILLIONS OF GROWN MALES WILL ARRIVE FROM EUROPE NEXT YEAR I" , Suppose this announcement should be official ly made by the President in bis next annual message. Would not every intelligent Ameri can born citizen read it with feelings of alarm ? -Would he not involuntarily exclaim, "our Re publican institutions are in danger !" Would not each' father look to his children and trem ble for their safety, as his imagination pictured a scene of anarchy soon to pervade the .land? ,We ask why would every reflecting citizen dread ihe. sudden presence among us of so many foreigb -born voters? The answer is pliTn. We instinctively feel that the Constitution and liberties of America are only safe while Ameri cans possesd a controlling voice in the manage ment of the government. Let loose upon our shores 5,000.000 of men from Europe, and give them the right of voting, and our present form of Republican government would probably not last a twelve month Every sane man feels this to be true, and none but designing demagogues will dare to deny it. American Republicanism isonly safe so long as American borq. voters are in a large majority in their own land. Once admit that the sodden advent of 5.000. 000 of voters from Europe would be an evjl and a danger to be dreaded, and' you admit tbjs. cor rectness of the leading principle of the Ameri can organization. That principle is to throw new guards around the elec ive franchise, and to grant it to no foreigner hereafter arriving un til he has lived among us twenty one years. Fifty years ago, when but 5,000 Europeans came to America in a year, there was no press ing necessity for requiring of them a very long probation. Their numbers were so few that their Influence on the government was not felt. Even to the year 1830, the annual arrival did not a re rage 10,000. The great inerease com menced with the famines which afflicted Ireland and Germany in 184G. Look at the following statement: Emigrants arriving in 1820 5,993 1830 23,074 1843 74,607 " " 1846 220.182 " " 1854 460,000 There are now in the United States over four millions of European emigrants, or nearly one fifth of the whole white population, Official statistics furnished from the Custom House re ports show that about two fifths of the emigrants are grown males over 20 years of age. It may, therefore, be safely estimated that there are ow in the United States at least 1,250,000 of men of foreign birth, the greater part of whom have arrived within the last nine years. But the danger does not stop here. By the ratio of increase witnessed since 1846, the Eu ropean emigration in nine years from this time. or in 1864, will have reached 1,000,000 per year. Of these, about 400,000 per year will be grown men, prepared to become voters in five years from the day of their landing. liy the returns of the Presidential election of 152, It will be found that the total of voters was then but a fraction over 3,000.000. Under existing laws, and under the encouragement held out for increased emigration by the Pierce party, there, will be "In the year 1865, in the United States four millions of men of foreign birth. American born voters will then find themselves in a minority in their own land. is it not time that every lover of his country should anxiously labor to avert this danger? JNow is the time lor action. Amend the Natur alisation laws. Adopt checks to ciTent pro miscuous emigration of felons and paupers. Cease to offer our public domain as a bribe to induce increase ot emigration. Cease putting foreigners into the offices of government at home and abroad. Cease from giving them a prefer ence as mechanics in the construction of nation al buildings, and in the Navy Yards. Do these things ana the present emigration will lessen rather than increase. Persevere in the present Pierce policy, and our eounffy will soon become the Botany Bay for the old world, and Anarchy or Depotism will, at no distant day, rule in the land now blessed with fXepubucan liberty.

In such counties as Jackson, Davis, and some others,' where Bates had a ma- jority, there is now a majority ot several hun dred the other way, and tnat in counties wnicn had been considered hopelessly and irredema bly Democratic; while in Jefferson, Scott, ana some few where the Democrats have gained, their Grain have been comparatively small.

Deax Express : The news from Norfolk and Portsmouth, by the Seaboard Railroad to-day is appalling, horrifying and heart-rending. I nave only time to give you a few of the most important deaths, previous to the departure of the Peters burg train. I deeply regret to inform you that the excellent and efficient Mayor of Portsmouth, D. D; FISKE, Esq., has followed his noble compeer in philan thropy and eood works the lamented Woopis of Norfolk, to the tomb At half-past seven this morninz. after a painful illness of several days with Yellow Fever, he quietly ana cairaiy breathed his last. Poor Portsmouth is not her fate indeed a hard one. To say nothing of the scores of other noble souls and good citi zens, that have been swept off by this terrible scourge, the loss of Trcoiek and Fiskb is one week, is indeed a heavy blow, and well calculated to unnerve the stoutest heart. Capt. SeldeaW. P. Allen, of the Seaboard Road, one of the most popular and highly efficient of ficers I ever knew, ir the very dawn and strength of manhood, died at the Naval Hospital yesterday about 1 o'clock. He wa a native of Greensville county, and has a brother in your city, to whom his will indeed be crushing intelligence. Among the latest deaths in Portsmouth besides the above, are the following : ; 'r - Miss Laura Williams, daughter of Patrick Wil liams, daceased, Mr. W. and a sister of Miss Laura's died a few days ago. Mrs J. A. Williams and Anne also, who are about the last of a numerous family. Nearly every member is now dead, or else have the Fever, except one, and she is the wife of Mr. Lemosy, of the Telegraph Office, now in Boston with her husband. She will indeed find a deserted home when she returns. Negro man of W. Gunter; Wm. Watson; child of George Thompson ; Mrs. Bullock ; negro man of John Tees ; Mr. Sullivan ; a negro of W. Hodgsdens ; Mr. John D. Cooper, negro of Wm. Brooks; Wm. Cowdery ; Wm. Murphy ; Joseph A. Bilisoly, jr.; Thomas Green; Miss Caroline Williams, and others. The interments yesterday numbered about thirty. Mr. Daughtery, the mail agent of the Seaboard Road, was taken sick on his way up to-day, and was compelled to get off on the road, and take to his bed His place is supplied temporarily by Mr. Columbus C. Robinson, a very courteous and ef ficient gentleman. ---- Dr. Wm. Collins, President of the road is not sick as was reported yesterday. From Norfolk the tidings are two heart-rending for detail. Whole families have been swept away i during the past two or three days. Among others are mentioned a Mr. Lewis and six children, also Mr. Resten, wife and seven children. Dr. Cox and several other transient physicians have beea sent to the Hospital. All agree, physicians as well as others, that the disease is certainly on the increase. Among the dead at Norfolk, is mentioned the name of young Walter Scott, of Richmond, who volunteered and went down a few days ago as a nurse. He is a son of Robert G. Scott, Esq., our present. Consul for the Port of Rio de Janeiro, South America. The burials in Norfolk yesterday amounted to forty ! ! ! Grave diggers are said to be in great demand. Three nurses from Charleston, are now here on their way to Norfolk. CONSUMPTION. There is no disease with which our country is afflicted, which sweeps off annually so many vic tims as Consumption. N walk of lite is sacred from its blighting influence. No age is exempt from its death-dealing shalU. The old, the middle-aged, and the young, all alike, are food for this common enemy of mankind. Is there no help for the afflicted t No prevent ativeof the dangers which beset us in our changea able aud tickle clime 1 We think there is. Wlstar's Balsam of Wild Cherry is offered to a suffering world as such. Its true value and intrinsic excellence are sufficient to en title it to the confidence of the public, and it has won that confidence. None genuine unless signed 1. BUTTS on the wrapper.

His head Is not worth protecting, and then his late adventure among his Irish friends shows that it isn't the part of him most in need of protection." Prentice, of the Journal, has got bis neigh bor of the Democrat in a tight place. The said Democrat, while peaceably passing along th'e street in a buggy, with a friend, received several shots from the window of an Irish house, and one of the shots tound lodgment in some unmentionable part of the editor s body. But notwithstanding this assault, he has been la borinir incessantly to prove that the natives were altogether to blame- ana tne poor, harmless Irish greatly outraged. When in vestigations were being made, the editor kept mum. and never would have duoloaed the bul let in bis rump, lest it might upset bis cause and do injury to bis Irish allies. Bait. Clipper.

On Sunday, the 26th ultimo, about five miles from Camden, the ele phant attached to the circus and managerie of C.F. Bailey & Co. killed a horse and bis keep er. It appears there was a difficulty in getting the animal across the bridge near Col. Taylor's mill,' and after some trouble they succeeded in getting him over by another way. ine ele phant from some cause became angry, and the horse coming in his way was gored to death After ascending the hill on the other side of the mill-race the elephant again became unruly, wantiog to go to the left in place of the light. The keeper, whose name we leara is George West, undertook to punish him ; whereupon the enraged animal seised and threw him up. piercing the poor man through the body, ana mangling him otherwise in a shocking manner, so that he died in a few minutes. Mr. Bailey returned immediately to Camden and informed the coroner, Z. J. DeHay, who summoned a jury and repaired to the spot, when, after the usual formalities, the jury re turned a verdict in accordance with the tact. In the afternoon a requisition was made upon the Camden Light Infantry to go and kill the elephant, which had become a terror to all. A detachment, under command ot Lieut. James J. Villepigue, immediately responded to the call, and, arming themselves with powder and ball, repaired to the scene, lhey did not, however, succeed in killing the elephant that night, but went again the next morning, and, with the addition of several other gentlemen, not members of the company, succeeded, after a long and dangerous struggle, in dispatching him.

"So have I," said the miser ; "grant mine first." "Agreed." "My re quest is," said the miser, "that you ask ma for nothing." Died, on Wednesday the 29th ult., E. A Heartt, Junior Editor of the flillsborcugh Recorder. He was in the prime of life, being in the 36th year of his age His worth as a man, and public spirited citixen, his industry, his benevolent disposition, his bland and courteous manners, his honesty of pur pose, and his unbending integrity, won for him the respect of all, and the sincere love of a large circle of friends who mourn over his early death, la con nection with his aged and venerated father, he conducted a paper, which, for a manly and dig nified avowal of sentiments, a careful exchange of editorial courtesies, and a high toned morality, compared favorable with any paper in the State As a son he was dutiful and reverential to his aged father, whose feeble steps he supported with filiAl affection. The wife with whom he shared life's toils and joys the children just old enough to lisp the name of "rather," the sisters who clung to him as their best earthly friend, must tell what he was at home. His cheerful temper, and his christian courtesy made that home the abode of Bolid and christian happiness. But the light of that house has been extinguished. May Ood in mercy support and comfort these hearts crush ed by this sudden blow. The crowning excellency of our departed friend was his humble and consistent piety. A temper naturally kind, cheerful and joyous was beautiful ly developed by the grace of God, which taught him the way of salvation. This was manifested in all his intercourse with his fellow men, and espe cially did this light shine in the domestic circle. Early In life he gave himself to the baviour, and his daily walk was a bright illustration of a life of faith. When young in years and young in his christian profession, he was made an Elder, and the members of the church will long cherish the memory of this servant of God. He was always ready for every good work, for he loved his Mas ter's cause. Pressure of business and even feeble health were never made an excuse for negleoting his duties to the church. With great delight he attended on the ordinances of God's house. For many years he was the able and efficient Superin tendent of the Sunday School. This was his cho sen and much loved field of labor, and well and faithfully did he occupy it. The end of such a life was peace. His removal was sudden to the church and to his friends, but not to him, who had set his house in order, and who had long held intimate communion with eter nal realities. No man ever had stronger and dearer ties to bind him to earth, and yet he turn ed from earth with firm faith and bright hopes ; oalinly and confidently he sunk to rest "to be for ever with Jesus ;" and as he lost all consciousness of earthly scenes, his feeble tongue in broken sen tences snowed that his spirit was looking on the "twett and beautfuF' of the celestial city. Letytis who remain, follow him, who through faith and patience hath inherited the promises. COKHVSICATKP. Pall Stock, 1855. MTJIR & STEVENS, IMPORTERS AND DEALERS IN CHINA.
