MR. BURLINGAME3 SPEECH. f i
We invite attention to a very sensible article on
our fourth page, oo tbe Speech of Mr. Bqrlin
Gtut, of Massachusetts, in tho U. S. - House of
RepreseiUatives, from the Bostoa Courier..' ? j

THE DISCUSSION.
We were present during most of the time of the
discussion between Messrs.' Br. ao. & Gilmer, ion1
Thursday last. A very large .crowd attended
perhaps nearly, or quite one thousand persons.
We do not know that an analysis of the speak-
ing on this occasion will, be necessary. Gov;
Sbago avowed I be doctrine we sustain, and very
aMy and' clearly defined the true position of pari
ties. II convicted his opponent of aome few
mistakes fa regard to Go. B's Course, and mr
ticularly xa a charge tbat .be had opposed tree
tsuffrage ; he put Mr. G lmer into a very awkward
position,: from which he was unable to extricate
himself, so far as we could observe. We do pot
eare to discuss tbe merits of the parties, more
? than simply to aay that Gov. Bbago bad decidedly
the advantage of his opponent, both in regard to
facta and their exemplification, lie is a very
powerful speaker, and has" the capacity to rivet
tbe attention and convince the understanding.
We are very much mistaken if be did not cause
the scales to fall from the eyes of some who were
his opponents at the beginning of the discussion.
Miv&jlmeb is a strong man when on tbe right
side. But his iraa an op-bill business, and it was
. evident tbat he felt it to bo so.- jl
Both'genllemea are of much private worth,
and entitled to the respect of their folio w-ci tizens.
It would be well for some of our political suarjers
and brawlers, if they would take example -from
the deportment and manners these gentlemen ex
ii hibited towards each other, in-their animated
discussion. : -1 . j-. - ' " ? ''
If we 'rightly understand him, Mr. Glmeb Is
anti-Nebraska, and in favor of Compromises--he
-is therefore hostile td the chief points of our po
litical faith, as well as that of the National de
mocracy. . ; j - j. z 11"
We should look upon his election as a public
calamity, because it would cheer the hearts of
tbe Black Republicans toj find a Governor of N.
Carolina- not constitutionally orthodox, but Will
ing to secede io some degree from the only ground
of oor security and safety.! tj
We do not, however, look for any such result
She Democracy must be very relax, indeed, if
they do not give Gov. Bbago a very large major
ity, and quite answerable to reproach if they do
not cause it to exceed ten or twelve thousand.
We hope our friends will not wait till November,
when the coup de grace is to be given to their ' op
ponents but make a handsome turn-out in Au
gust, to encourage our friends abroad. -
MILITARY COURTESY.
The German Volunteers, tender capt. VwGlIhs,
and the Rifle Cadets under capt. Blaney, para
ded on yesterday morning, and escorted Governor
Bbago, from Holmes' Hotel to the Steam Boat
Wharf, while taking bis departure from our town.
The whole affair was- exceedingly well conducted,
and after the escort the companies paraded about
town ia very handsome style. There were dis
charges of artillery from Costin's wharf, on the
opposite side of the river, and the military also
fired 'salutes when the boat started on her' way
across the river to tbe Cars of the Wilmington &
Manchester Rail Road. We look upon thi af
fair as highly appropriate land as a courtesy pro
perly due to the Commander in Chief. j -
- " MR. GILMER. !:'
We understand that while we were absent for
a short time from the discussion on Thursday,
Mr. Gilmer was quite facetious in regard to ns
and our afiairs. It is very proper that the, gen
tleman should be facetious. If a Know Nothing
candidate for Governor of North Carolina jmay
ot Indulge iu a littlo episodical facetia, he would
have a very dull time of it, we guess. ' ll
But the chief point to note in this matter is the
tetement made by Mr. Gilmer , that Mr. Baiao
was among the " boys " wjiom we had to take to
task for their sauciness towards us on the floor of
the House of Commons W,y years ago. The
fact is that Mr. Bbaoo was not in that crowd ; oo
the contrary he reprovedj the mv and- told them
that they had done wrong like a gentleman as
lie is and-always was. j j
In candor and justice to- Mr. Gilmer we 'must
say that we believe he thought Mr. Ba.eff was
among the " boys "waeW he said so and more
over, we believe he would have said so, whether
-e uiougbt so or not.
ANOTHER AUXILIARY.
The London Correspondent of the New ! York 1
W.J1 . . . . ... i i
inouue, states inai ute leaders or the European
Democracy " unanimously desire the success of
the Republicans In our approaching Presidential
Election, and deprecate that of the Slavery-extending
Democracy." Gbeelt appears to be very
much pleased at the new! auxiliaries his corres
pondent has picked up in Europe, and expects,
we suppose, great aid. from that quarter.1 The
- Democracy;1 of which bespeaks, s far si Eng
iana is concerned, are doubtless the disciples of
Mrs. Stow and other Abolitionists the, it,w
of which are the Duchess of Sutheiland arid oth
ers, of the "nobility and gentry' of that region.
That the " people of Great Britian, properly so
called, sympathise with any party fcerer i absurd
to think of. They are attached to their own gov
ernment and care but little about our affairs, any
futher than to desire that peaceful relations may
not be disturbed, became It la for the interest of
the mercantile and working class that they should
not be. They know nothing of the geographical
divisions- and social influences that af&Kt the
politics of this country.; We dare say the Black
RennbHcana will talk of the- Democracy bf Chi.
na and Asiatic Turkey, as very anxious about the
election- pt Fremont, nd very " much surpris
ed,." as the odor Democracy Is said to be, at the
nomination of Bchchaxah. This matter is very
edifying to afi who are fond of political nonsense.
N tMR. BROOKE DEFENSE.
The following is the defence of Mr. Brooks,
U May it please your Honor: I appear In per
son before this honorable Court simply to receive
its judgment. I would have preferred that tbe
person upon whom tbe assault was committed
had been present to answer whether or not his
speech which libelled my State and ray blood was
printed, Jbefore. its delivery in .tbe" Senatf. I feel
confident that under oath he could not have de
nied this fact, which, w ith due deference to your
Honor, I regard asnaterial to my defencg, inso
much as a libel is contrary to law, and to tlmt ex
tent would operate in extenuation of my offence.
I would like to have Inquired of him, in person,
as to the degree of bis personal injuries, aod to
have been informed in what way ho could recon
cile that part of his . statement aa to the words
used by me when tbe assault was made with the
sentence which immediately succeeds this lan
guage ia Lis testimony before tbts investigating
committee, and. which is as" follows: "While
' these words were passing from bis f my lips lie
commenced a succession of blows with a heavy
cane on my bare head, by the first of vckich I teas
stunned so as to lose sight." It would have gra
tified me had be been compelled to auswor ui.dcr
oath as to the violence of the first blow' which I
aver wds but a tap, and intended to-iut him on
his guard. But, sir, be i conveniently and deli
berately absent And on travll notwithstanding
but -six days, ago this case was postponed on ac
count of bis extreme indisposition and the mate
rial ityf "his testinmiy; and yet, with all these
disadvantages, I prefer to. receive the judgment
of tbe Conrt than to continne in suspense.
It ianot my purpose to adduce any evidence in
defence. I have already accomplished more than
half of the journey of life, and this is the first
time tbat it has been my misfortune tone arraign
ed before any- judicial tribunal aa a breaker of
any law of my country. I confess, sir, snd with
out shame, that my sensibilities are disturbed by
my novel position, and I have but to express my
profound regret that, in discharging a duy im
posed upon me by my own sense, of right and the
scntimoat of the gallant people it is ray pride and
honor to represent, I am constrained a conse
quence to approneh you as a violator aud not as
a -maker of the law. -
In extenuation of my offence permit me to say
that no extraordinary power of invention is re
quisite to imagine a variety of personal grievan
ces which the good of society aud eiten public
morality require to be redressed, and yet no ad
equate legal remedy may be bad. So also are
those cases which may fall under the condemna
tion of the letter of tbe law, and yet like consi
derations wili restrain its penalties. The villain
who perverts the best feelings of the better sex,
and rewards tfnsuspecting devotion with ruin,
may bid defiance to tills honorable Court; but,
where a sister's dishonor is blotted out with the
bloed of her destroyer, an intelligent and whole
some public opinion, embodied in an intelligent
and virtuous jury, always has and always will
control the law, and popular sentiment will ap
plaud what the books may condemn. It is thu
glory of the law that it is founded in reason.
But can tbat reasoning be just which is not re
gardful of human fueling 1 Sir, no .one knows
bettor than yourself that such a reproaeh docs
not rest upon our jurisprudence, for even the stern
letter of the law touches with tenderness the
husband who slays- in tbe act the usurper of his
bed. The child who kills in defence of ita pa.
rent is, excused by the law, which is ever regard
ful of thp virtuous impulsetof nature.
JBy a parity of reasoning patriotism is regarded
by every nation upon earth as the cardinal po
litical virtue. Sons are made to reward it and to
perpetuate the names of those who are its exem
plars; and can K be expected, will it be required
that I, with a heart to feel aud an arm to strike,
shall patiently hear and ignobly submit while my
political mother is covered with insult and oblo
quy and dishonor, while her character is slander
ed and her reputation libelled 1 Sit, the sub-J
, : v T i T r- , .... T
auiucc niittu x uay uwu gamtiruig lor my chil
dren may be squandered, my body may be con
signed to the common Jail," my life itself may be
forfeited, but I will be true to tbe instincts- of my
nature true to the" home of my maturity and to
the mother that bore me.
The first political lesson which myj ripening
faculties fully comprehended and appreciated was
the high moral and social obligations of every
citizen to bow himself to the majesty of the law.
In obedience to the precepts of my youth, which
are sanctioned by the experience and judgment
of mature years, I submit my case to the dis
cretion of the Court, with entire confidence that
while you, sir, as a magistrate, perform your du
ty to tbe country and yourself, you will remem
ber 'that in every regulated community public
opinion distinguishes between crime" and honor,
able resentment, and tolerates the refuge which
men sometimes seek in the m.znanimitr of their
judges. -
Judge Crawford, upon the conclusion of Mr.
Brooks's remarks, proceeded to give the follo
wing decision :
"As this matter will be within a short time the
subject of investigation in another place, and as
it is not necessary to the discharge of my duty
that I should remark on tbe evidence adduced,
which I could not do without touching on some
of the point that will probably be raised else
where, it appears to me to be proper what the
sentence of the Court should bo pronounced
without comment. That sentence is that tbe de
fendant pay a fine of SSOO." V
HAIL STORMS.
niLLSBoao, N. C, July 9, 1856, Some parts of
th,is county bavj suffered severely from hail
storms which passed over it on Saturday evening
and Sunday noon. , .
- The one on Saturday evening, we understand,
commenced about six or seven miles north of this
place, and extended down to the neighborhood f
South Lowell, destroying almost entirely the com
and other exposed crops, and demolishing the
glass In windows. Some Individuals, wo are in
formed, sof&red severely, among whom are Mr
Tyre B. Ray and Mr. George Jackson.
Tbe storm on Sunday noon was almo&t nppre
cedsnted in its severity and tbe destination it
occasioned. The bail fell, we aretold, for nearly
half an hour, some of it as big as'heta eggs. It
commenced about six miles cast of this place,,
and extended down about six miles in length,
and some four miles in breadth. The destruction
of the corn, cotton, tobacco, &c., is represented
to be almost entire. - 8ome individuals contem
plate planting corn to supply fodder destroyed.

1 EXPLOSION AT NEVJTBURGH.
Newbubgb, N. Y., July 8, 3 o'clock, P. M. I
have just returned from the scene of a sad acci
dent in this village. At 25 minutes to 1 o'clock,
tbe boiler exploded in the Washington Iron Works,
belonging to Stanton & Malloryj and seriously in
jured some six- persons. Tbe building is of brick,
some 200 feet long, and threo stories "high, and
has been half demolished by tba explosion.. The
boiler, which was a new one, was rent asunder in
every parj, and carried perllaps 100 feet in the
air, passing over the roof of a tbiee story sash
and blind factory on tbe opposite side of tbe
street, and landing behind it, where it now lies
spread out upon tho ground like a sheet, and a
complete wreck. Several pieces and one large
weight were found near the river, 400 feet distant
from tbe place of the explosion'. There are from
70 to 80" hands employed" in the baiMing.'bnt
most fortunately It was their dinner hour, aud all
except the foreman and a few others were absent,
and these were not engaged at work, but were
sitting-around the doors. At any other time tbe
loss of life would hare been great not leas than
SO or 40. As it ia, there were several very narrow
escape. The foremin was carried across the
office and through a glass door rat the street,
maiming bis arms ; another man was blown from
the second story, and a third borne to some dis
tance in the air. I hear that three others were
rescued from tbe ruins. It is thought that not
more than one to fatally Injured. It ia too early
to give yon further particulars to-day. The loss
ia variously estimated from S10.000 to $15,000.

' - LATER FROM KANSAS.-
The Free Slate Convention Dispersed by Colonel
Sumner Convention at Topelca. " . :
St. Louis, Jufy 9th. Advices from Topeka,
Kansas, to the 4th, says that a convention met
there on the 2d instant, and passed resolutions in
favor of the Republicans, and denunciatory of
the Democrats, appealing to the friends of free
Kansas iu Congress to stop voting supplies until
Kansas shall be admitted into the Union, under
tbe Topeka. constitution. , Mr. Donaldson and
Judge Elmore read the President's proclamation
of February last, and Governor Shannon's proclar
mation ; and one Woodson read a note flora Col.
Sumner saying that he would prevent the meet
ing of the Legislature, but they were unheeded.
About 800 persons ware present, all armed. ' .
On tke 4th both branches of the Fre "State
Legislature met, when Col. Sumner entered the
town wjth 200 U. S. dragoons and planted two
cannon at the head of Kansas javenue. Tbe
troops were drawn up before Constitutional Hall.
Col. Sumner told Jhe cilisens that he would not
disarm them or break up the convention, but had
.orders to dissolve the legislature, and did so.
Col. Sumner repaired to tbe Hall of Represen
tatives', and laid: "I-am called upon to perform
the most painful duty of my life. Under the au
thority of the President I am here to dissolve the
Legislature. In accordance w ith my orders I
command you to disperse.. God knows, I have no
party feeling in the matter, and I will haro none
wbilg I hold my present, position. In Kansas.. I
have just returned from the border, where I have
been sending homo Missourians ; and I am here
with instructions to disperse the Legislature. I
agajn command you to disperse." - - - -
Judge Schuyler asked if they were to under
stand that they were to bo driven out at the point
of the bayonet 1 Col. Sumner replied tlmt ha
would use the whole force under bis command
to enforce the orders. The House then dispersed.
A similar scene was enacted in the Son ate.-
The convention is preparing resolutions endor
sing tBo State Government and the Topeka consti
tution.. The fears of an invasion kept large num
bers from attending.
France Christening of tbe Imperial Prince.
The chrislcniog ot the luipeiial Prince bad
takrn place. The procession to the church was
gaudy and magnificent. The Mooitctir describes
the scene at the church : . . '.
New aisles bad been erected, with a vaulted
roof of cerulean bluo, bespangled With golden
stars- The lancet arches wero peaked out with
green, yellow, crimson and g'"!d. Windows of an
ephemeral character, bitrsoadmlrably'done that
they almost vied in beauty with those that wee
really painted, helped to fling a soft light of ricfi
harmony over a scene which would take half oi
your columns adequately o describe. Tbe cen
tre of the crosa which constitutes tke ediSce bad
a high altar erected, over which was suspended
from the top of tbe blue vaulted roof a rich pur
ple anopy, spangled with bees.
On one side a row of graduated benches sat the. I
8-ilihops of France in their gorgeous robes.
Ther wcie the four archbishops on a fauteuil by
themselves. - Tbe cardinals, in crimson, on an
other opposite. ' In front of the altar, with a font
between, was placed a throne for the Emperor
and Empress, Thousands of" lustres flung their
light on the nave of tbe church. Tbe sun shot
its gjorious rays. through the colored windows,
and when the imperial party, the legislative and
senatorial bodies, the thousands of beautiful wo
men in those delicious toilettes d soir, all with
paptismal veil, were all assembled, tbe effect of
this light was beyond measure enchanting.
Tbe Emperor aud Empress and the Prince Im
perial entered", with a fanfaronade of trumpets.
Tbe Cardinal Legate received them. All the con
gregation rose, and tbe church, from the roof to
the floor, wa one vast mass of human beings in
their babiUof cercmuoy. The imperial child was
piestnted to tbe font, and as the Papal Legate
raised it in bis arms amid tbe deathless-silence,
of allrit uttered a long, loud, sharp, but still plain
tive cry, which attracted the sympathy of all
present. Every one helped to break the silence,
and make some exclamation indicative of human
sympathy; The Emperor smiled, and tbe Em
press, spite of tbo solemnity, bent her head over
the litte one.
Then took place attestation, the Emperor do
ing so first; tbe Princess Matbildo and the other
Pliocesses doing the same magnificently saluting
their Majesties, as, pasiing before tbem with -their
superb trains, upheld by- thir retainers,
they proceeded to the desk where lay tbe great
book of State, -
The babtism ever, the equerry exclaimed-:
"ViveV ' Empereurt Prince Imperial !" 'The con
gregation caught it up, and tbe church front all
points rang with the glorious cry' Many were In
tears. The words were caught up, and an air ex
pressly composed for , this occasion was chanted
by the whole choir, with the words: ' ViveV Em
pereur I . Vive, Vive le Prince Imperial f

Men of courage were rarely abusive but those

Mr. Bingham replied.
Mr. Brooks expressed gratification that Mr.
Bingham declaimed any personal unkindness,
and asked him whether he understood him cor
rectly as saying that he (Brooks) was guilty of
-the moral turpitude" of perjury. Mr Bingham
denied such assertion and Mr. Brooks expressed
himself satisfied. '
- Mr Orr deprecated the fact that an attempt
had been made to impress the public mind that
Sumner was stricken down while pleading in be

that Mr. Sumner was stricken down with a blud

CROPS IN THE WEST.
A two weeks tour through the States of Michi
gan, Wisconsin, lows, and Illinois, has. given us
an opportunity to observe tbe growing crops, and
to judge for ourselves.
In Michigan the Corn is backward, but the rains
and sun are bringing it forward fast, and an av
erage Crop ia looked for. Tbe winter wheat is
good ' ' "
In Illinois, (the northern part,) wheat, both
spring and winter, is rack. Corn is breast high,
stands well, and premises a heavy yield. There
is, too, in this State, an immeuse breadth of land
sown. - , - - .
Farmers are getting more Independent, have
more facitittesand can take care .of more grain
than heretoore. The trouble bas been with
tbem, that they could sow more than they could
reap, help in harvest being scarce. . But now,
tnacr icrry plows; boavs, reaps, rata, thrashes
and cleans their grains and but little U left for a
man io do. except to market his crop.
THere is no- old wheat in the country, but
plenty of corn. Every Tanner, almost, has balf
or two-thirds of his last year's crop on hand, lay
ing in heaps about bis barfts.
Crops: In Iowa and Wisconsin thro will be
an immense yield of wheat, oats and corn ; there
is no fly or rust yet visible, and this wwk'the
wheat harvest will generally commence. Look
oat for low prices.

HoWrwav's Ointment and Pills, a certain Cure
for Scald Heads. Henry, 12, Maria. 10, and John
Ames, 9, of Apalacbicola, Florida, were all three
affected with this disagreeablo malady; Maria
in particular was in a wretched plight with it, and
although th?ro were many remedies tried, yet tbe
malady did not seem to decrease, indeed tbe dis
ease spread itself all over the surface of the head,
to the great annoyance of tbe parents and discom
fiture of tbe child ; tbe blood of the others was
equally impure. At last the parents' put tbe
three under a course of Bolloway'a Ointment and
Pills, which cured them all In tbe space of nine
teen Weeks. Their health has since considerably
improved. These lemedies are wonderfully effi
cacious in all diseases of tbe skin .

Numbers 1 and 2, just issued, complete tbe se
ries, which is, as a whole, cheaper tban any other
series of Readers in .the United States, and aa
complete. -,
Tbe Editor (Prof. JJubbard) fa his Preface to
Number 1 deems it proper to allude to a few of
tbe peculiar advantages aimed at by the Superin
tendent of Common Schools while-making courts
to bave this work completed. These are
. 1. THE ENCOURAGEMENT OP A FEELING
OF SELF DEPENDENCE, and tbe enlistment of
popular sentiment in behalf of the State, aud ita
institutions It waa not thought important how
over, to bave more than 004 number of tbe Rea
ders of merely local interest.
2. TO KEMEDY THE EVIL EVERYWHERE
COMPLAINEU OF IS COMMON SCHOOLS. OF
A PERPETUAL CHANGE IN TEXT BOOKS ; an
xpeni-ive habit, and ono which injures- tb
Schools by preventing the children from being
classified. . A nories of borne Readers, it was sup
posed, would be certainly uad, and ibis great
'wvil thus avoided.
3 ECONOMY, the popular system of Readrrs
being too long and being made so often merely to
add to the profits of authors and publishers.
This series is to consist of fewer number tban
those generally nsed. and ft fs believed I hat thsc
numbers are sufficient, while 'if tbe svrjein were
universally used in too 8fate, the asm saved to
parents and children would! ajoourt to several
thousand dollars annually.

Violent Cough, Bloody Expectoration, etc.
Miuieim. Centre Co., Pa., Oct. 9, 1830.
I not only take pleasure, but deem it -a duty I
owe- to suffering humanity, to certi'y publicly to
the great power of your Compound Syrup of Wild
Cherry. I was taken with i a violent cough, and
bloody expectoration, great ' wasting away of mv
flcafi, all the symptoms of Axed consumption. Af
ter trylng'varioas remedies without sny relicf.and
hearing of the great virtues of your Syrup, I com
menced its uscjand to my great satisfaction, and
astonishment of all aronud we, my cough began
to abate, appetite improve, and In fact I'have be
come as healthy and fleshy as ever. Some twelve
months have elapsed since the disease was first ar
rested, and I have every reason to believe that it
is completely eradicated, from rttv system.
