Tho following from the Washington Union is Important, as indicating the position the Admin titration will probabl) assume or at any rate, the bourse the Organ would recommend. There must be a little " bras; and bluster n. in every thing done is our America, of lateU,M Take care " do i you dare" "mind what, yon are about" are sen tences significant of tbe spirit that animates the administration mat is, nniess ine yrgaus tan, without the Book. We present the article to onr readers ; without remark simply observing that it is an undigni fled, windy, bullying article with words to Incite tbe feelings and mislead the imagination, without assisting the judgment. How far if becomes the character of the leading paper of arrest country, we leave " all the world and the rest of mankind i ,t,o decide." "The question of interest to ns is, in what at titude will Austria .stand when she cymes forward to demand reparation for the conduct of Captain Ingrabaml Surely, she must expecfher own pro ceedings in kidnapping Russia upon Turkish ter ritory, in violation of the laws Of Turkey, by which he bad placed himself under American pro tection, to be severely scrutinized. With what jrace could the court of Vienna clim reparation in view of the fact that the force Jhsed by Captain Ingrahaoi was the result ol tbeJawless violence of the Austrian consul in kidnapping a man who was under the protection of , the flag that floated over Capt. Ingrabam's vessel 1 Of course we can not anticipate the coarse of our government in such a case when the actual circumstances are so imperfectly known; but, taking it for granted that Kossta was arrested by violence on neutral territory, and whilst under American protection, ' we cannot see upon what principle it can be ob jected (bat Capt. Ingrahsm should interpose to prevent the consummation of the outrage. We maintain, that as the commander of the St. Louis, he was not only authorized to resort to " amicable interposition." but that it was Ms duty to his go vernment to exert just us much Jteicer as teas nl cessa ry to arrest the Austrian outrage nd previa I its con summation, i ' Of what avail would his "amicable interpo sition" have been 1 Kossta wns set unn by a band of lawless ruffians employed by the Austri an consul ; he was overpowered, put in chains, and carried to the Austrian vessel, to be conveyed to Austrian dungeon. Captain Ingraham was put in command of the American vessel and intruded with the sacred duty of guarding American citi zens, and those enjoying the right of American protection, against so ch outrages. What was hi duty in the premises'? We have no hesitation in saying that it was bis dnty to use all the force ne cessary to protect Russia ; and we unheMtatingU declare it as our opinion, that if he had poured a broadside into tbe Austrian brig and xunk her to the bottom, that, in view of the outrage perpetra ted by tbe Austrian consul in kidnapping Koosta the 'world would have regarded it as as act justi fiable under the circumstances. Captain Ingra hara, however, determined to try a less degree of force, and for his forbearance we are now notified that Austria may demand reparation. ' Resting our opinions upon the facts as detail ed by tbe London Times, and as they appear in the published correspondence, we think the cir cumstances Authorize us to "give an entirely fa vorable construction to the proceedings of Capt. Irtgraharo." We do not see how he could have Uooo less without incurring the risk of having been censured for want of promptness and ener gy, and without producing the impression that the American flag does not famish complete pro tection to American citizens against insult and outrage. " There is one point of view in which we loO1 upon the affair as fortunate it has occurred un der circumstances which fix upon it the attention of the whole world. Captain Ingraham has dis played tho true American spirit; he has shown that he comprehends the high responsibility that rests upon tho commander of an American ship ; ho has shown that be proerly appreciates the high privilege of being an American citizen. The moral effect of his example will tell well upon the American name; and we shall be greatly di appointed if tbe result does not prove, when Aus triaulemands reparation, that onr government will show its determination to maintain for onr name an elevated standard in the estimation of the powers of Enropc. v;; ,A FAMILY QUARREL. . jTbere baa been a quarrel in that very amiable and very pious crowd called the Abolitionists. The Freesoilers and Garrisonians made great pre parations for the celebration of the West India Emancipation, last week, at South Framingham. Mass. Instead of saying or doing any thing that had special reference to emancfation, they gave themselves up to the most bitter, uncharitable and disgraceful crimination of each other,' and broke op In a row. They told the troth about each otbor,and that was what stuck in their sev eral gizzards. "I PROTESTANT ORGANIZATION. The New York Day Book informs us that this party is now forming, and in a few months iuor 'J?!t.5tm wil1 b complete.

We presnmei bowerer, that the means and will of the citiiBSre sufficient -for the occasion, so far as human aid and comfort can prevail. This Is cer tainly tbe case where there are many persons like the one described below, in an article which B pears in the Commercial Bulletin of Ang. 6 under me head of "Incidents in Begging Excorsifina :" . With a certain class of Tnanklndthat portion whose organ of self-esteem is the nnwt prominent and active one their'craniums Ievebpe, certain occo atioos, as well as peconiarv deficiencies are looked upon as evidences of inferiority, and as a matter of course, are excluded from associa tion with those who assume a uperioritv. There are too many of ns in fact who claim not to be influenced y external appearances, that are as much, if not more at fault as the vain, ponions, purse proud "egotist, who makes no atteu.pt to disguise bis abhorrence and dilike of those in the humbler walks ot life. We are too prone to give the cold shoulder to one who does not. per haps, move in the same 'sphere with ourselves, from circumstances beyond his control and of a character unknown to the public. Would it not be better to probe the heart, to find out the inner man. before pronouncing judgment against and excluding him from the pale of society, simply upon evidence of an outward character 1 All this moralizing, however, is irrelevant to the object of these articles, but I have been led into it by a train of reflection from an occurrence of yesterday. For some two years past I have noticed on a street through which I ass in going to market, in a little den like, partitioned off from a corner of a store, and measuring about 4 by 6 fret, a tai lor sitting upon his bench assiduously employed in his avocation. Early or late he was always there, and seemed to be an immovable fixture. By constant passing and looking in. his face be came familiar and I felt so fur interested in him as to throw something in his way. Yesterday on passing his place he stopped me and asked me if I was not a member of the Howard Association. On answering "yes," lie said, '! am poor, but I Wish to give you all I can. here is one dollar. winch is all I can spare now. but 1 will eive vou tbe same amount every week so long as the sick ness continues." If science were so far advanced as to lead to the invention of a heart microscope, and il applied to this man, benevolence would be discernable to an extent far beyond many of those who make much great erpret ensiotis. If from his humble position he is neglected and pei haps despised in this world, bo will have his reward hereafter.

Tbe Baltimore Sun of Thursday has the follow- At 4 o'clock on Tocsday afternoon, th" 2 o' clock P. M. tpin from Philadelphia and the 2 o' clock P. M train from New York, while coming round a curve, at or near Old Bridge, on the Cam den and Am boy railroad, enme into a terrible head and bead collision, whereby some four or five per sons were instantly killed, and a large number wounded some of them, it is feared, fatally. Horse expresseMvore immediately sent off to the two nearest stations where aid could be procured' and locomotives nnd cars were immediately dis patched to the terrible scene. The scene is des cribed as bafSing all description, but the absence of all scre8ming;Bnd unnecessary noise was most remaikablu. Tbe details are given in the state ment of two reliable gentlemen. The names of Ibe killed could nojge ascer tained; but, so far as we can learn, there were two men, one woman and a child killed. One of the men appeared to be a foreigner. Tbe two trains took away such of the wounded as could be easily removed. The remainder were left at Old Bridge in tbf care of medicnl attenrlanis from Amboy and otber plnces. Tbe conductors of tlx two trains which came into collision were arrest ed, as we learn from the statement made by the captain of the steamboat John P tu-r. IMPORTANT SUIT IN MONTRE AL The following is from the Montreal Trans cript : "We understand that notice of an action has been served on the Mayor by the relations of James McRca. one of the parties who lost his Uf by tbejring of the troops of the lower divis ion on thJiight of the 9th June.

Foreign ministers to this country frequently do a little diplomacy on their own account.

American born; Monsieur Pageot. a former and M Sartiges, the present French min istor at Washington, have both Ame'ican wives.
