Hope for New Jersey !

The city of Newark, N. J., at its Charter
Election on Tuesday last, was carried by the
Republicans. This is worthy to be classed
among the other Republican triumphs, as
this is the first tlnre that city ever went Re-
publican, and forcshadows the result. in the
State. The vote stands: Republican 4,600,
Douglas 2,500, and Fusion (Bell d5 Breckiu-
ridge) 3,700. This shows, says the Newark
Daily Advertiser, some very noticeable facts :
“The first is the great increase of the Repub-
lican vote, while the combined vote of the
other parties remain about stationary. In
1850 at the charter election the votes cast
were: Republican 2, 157, AmeriCan 2,258,.rrnd
Democratic 3,496—thc Republican being the
lowest. on the three. The increase this year
is attributable to the legitimate growth of the
party, and the accessions from the Bell par-
ty, who refuse to be sold by fusion bargains.
The second fact which may be inferred, is
that the Douglas and the Breckinridgc par-
ties arc about equally balanced, (about 2,500
each,) and that the Bell party number about
1,000 votes. As this city and Jersey City
are the chief strongholds of that party the
weakness of its vote may be imaginer ."

WIDE‘AWAKB RBJ OICIN G.

Our Norwalk and South Norwalk Wide
Awakes turned out on Friday night last, and
made their first imposing street parade. The
neWs from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana,
was too powerful for the modesty of the boys
and they had to “ demonstrate.” Tire line
was headed by that best of all marching
music, the fife and drum, and the up-town
Club marched to South Norwalk, where they
were joined by the South Norwalk Compa-
ny, and returning they saluted the residence
of every prominent Republican on their line
of march, which was through all our princi-
pal streets, with the “Wide Awakc cheer.”

Among the transparencies was a large one
inscribed on its four sides as follows;

” Well done, Pennsylvania !

The Quakers have Voted 1”
"0 HI 0
20,000
REPUBLICAN!"

“ Have you heard from
I N D I A N A?”

On the fourth, was a large eagle from
whose beak flaunted, “Lincoln and Ham-
lin,” “Union and Victory,” “ Free
Homes for Free Men l”

But their demonstration of Friday evening
beautiful as it was, bears no comparison to
the power and influence exerted upon the
minds of our young men, and the power to be
exerted at the polls and in bringing out the
voters on election day. ,' Therein consists the
significance of this Wide Awake movement
through the country. Boys! up and at them,
and let no lukewarm republican or doubting
loco escape your vigilance! Thus to you
shall belong the honor of securing a greater
political triumph than was ever witnessed in
Old Connecticut before !

Whitney takes the Prince.

Our Whitney with his assistant Woodbnry
was sent for by Brady to come and take the
Prince and suite at his new and gorgeously
fitted rooms in Broadway. Ifany other evi-
deuce were wanting of Whitney’s acquire-
ments as an artist itis thus furnished by the
fact of an artist of Brady’s reputation entrust.-
ing the management of so distinguished an
“order” to Whitney’s taste and skill. A most.
capital picture was taken, of which, and
about which, we shall give full particulars in
our next. ‘

It can be proved from the record that
Abraham Lincoln, while in Congress, voted
with Tom Corwin and other Abolitionists
against the bill granting supplies to the
American soldiers in Mcxico,who were light-
ing for the honor and glory of their country.
Brazen faced editors of the Standard’s stain p,
who pay no regard for the truth in their col-
umns, have denied this fact for the purpose
of deceiving their readers. Old Abe’s record,
however, proves iudisputably,bcyond adoubt,
that he did so vote. What a patriotic man !
Voting to disable those who were fighting for
the honor and glory of their country !
Brdlgclwrl Former.
WWhat ails this man? He, torn and
tormented of seven devils, could not. have
raved and reveled in lies as does this man.
There is no use mincing matters with such
an adversary. Such known and persistent
falsification is scoumlrcli'sm, simple and abso-
lute! Has the man become impotent. of
truthful asset-lien? Or is he infatuated with
abclicf that the interests of agrcat party
are to be promoted by a system of lying,
which in audacity and meanness would dis-
grace a pickpocket. and sneak thief in the
eyes of his confcdel'atcs‘.’ '

and all other kinds of foreign and domestic
marble, and it. is said, at 1-4 of their cosl.— —
Oils, acids and alkalics have no effect on it,
_wc are assured by the agent, also that it will
“stand the weather,” endure more hcat. than
marble, and takes four times the weight. to
crush it. It really presents a beautiful sur-
face, and at its .low price, it must displace
marble to a very great extent. Samplcs can

will not touch or discolor it, it seems to us

Baron Renirew's Neception.

The Royal party’reachcd South Amboy at
a quarterto 12 o’clock and immediately went
on board'tlrc “Harriet Lane,” where they
were welcomed by Licut. Gcn. Scott. On
the way to the city a luxurious lunch was
served undcr the direction of Mr. Stetson of
thc Astor House.

At. 2.30 P. M., the Prince entered Castle
Garden, where he was received by the May-
or, who formally presented to him the Corn-
rnon Council of the city in a :body. He was
conducted to a room where he put. on his
uniform, which was that of a Colonel ofthc
100th (Canadian) Regiment—scarlet cont,
blue facings, trimmed with gold; black
trowsers, with gold stripe down the outer
scams; cocked hat, with white plume of os-
trich feathers; crimson sash, and blue rib—
bon with a star of the Hanover-fan Gnelphic
Order.

Mayor Wood then cscortcd him to the door
facing the battery, where he was presented
to General Sandford. He was received with
the fullest honors, rolling drums, colors
drooping, arms presented, band playing do,
and immediately reviewed thc troops. He
was then conducted to the City Hall, where
from a platform he received the honor
of :1 marching salute. At 5.10 the
Prince and suite entered Varriages and
proceeded to the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
The review at the Hotel did not take place,
owing to the lateness ot'thc hour, but in res—
ponse to the calls of an immense crowd the
Prince appeared upon the balcony, where by
was heartily cheered. ‘

Friday the Prince visited the N. Y. Univer-
sity, Cooper Institute, Astor Library, Central
Park, High Bridge and Randalls Island &.c.

At the Central Park the Baron planted tu'o

trees at the request of the Commissioners—~»

an English Oak and an American Elm.

A lunch was taken at the Mayor‘s residence
at Bloomingdale—Ex-President, Fillmore,
Arch BishOp Hughes,Bishop Potter, W n. B.
Astor, and other prominent men bein, pres-
cut.

The greatest event of the occasion, the Ball
at the Academy of Music was got up in mag-
nificent style. At the first Attempt to dance,
however the floor ave way in the centre,with
a terrible crash. Tt'had been built over the
stage floor. No body was injured, the work
of repairing took some two hours.

The Baron danced first with Mrs. Gunilla"-
gan. Afterwards he had for partners, Miss

Iason, Mrs. Gould Hoyt Miss Roosevelt,Miss
Jennie Field, &c. .

Saturday, he visited Bradys new Photo-
graph Gallery, Barnums Museum and sever-
al other stores. Sunday he attended divine
Service at the Trinity, Church and Monday
he embarked on the Harriet Lane for West
Point, from there he goes to Albany and
thence to Boston. '

 

. ,w

Writ the solicitation of one Of our citi-
zens, a member of the Baptist pursnasion,
we copy the following from the New York
World :— '

 

Division of the Bible.

An association composed of very respecta-
ble, but we think, very mistaken, gentlemen,
mainly of the Baptist church, calling them-
selves the American Biblc Union, having for
its chief object the revision of the King James
version of the Scriptures, held its eleventh
anniversary in our city last week. It report-
ed an expenditure Of forty thousand dollars
in furtherance of its objects during the last
year, and the completion of the first of the
four gospels, which is issued in a quarto vol-
ume of about three hundred pages,now before
us. This does not claim to be a final revis-
ion ; a final comnrittcc of reviscrs has
yet to pass _.upon it. It would not. be
right, therefore, to make the convention re-
sponsible for what seems to us the absurdity
of the so-called emendations—an absurdity
which any o‘r’re‘who has any taste for English
pure and undefilecl cannot hold observing.

\Ve rejoice that Baptists, as a body, give
the amended version no countenance. We
rejoice at it simply in the interests of Chris
tianity, and out of no sectarian predilections.
The King James version of the Holy Scrip-
tnres'is a work of incomparable beauty and
worth, and time only makes it the more beau‘
tifnl and lovely. To fifty millions of human
beings it is endeared bytbc most ].rrer:iousan~
cestral memories, and the most sacred fiSSOCl-
ations. It is the bond of Protestant brother-
hood, the tabernacle of their common Chris-
tian hopes. If it has its inaccuracies, they
are not. to be determined upon or corrected
by single individuals or denominations. Re-
spect for the religious sentiment. of Christen-
dom and regard for the interests Of Christian-

ity itself forbid it. Protestants now have a.

commonly recognized standard of belief; but
when innovations upon it, like those here
designed, are tolerated and accredited, no
matter in what 'spirit or with what ends, a
precedent is established of the most. dungeons
tendency. What one sect may do all sects
may do, and what they may do to a given ex-
tentstlre‘y‘ may do to any extent, and if car'-
ried out the Bible would be turned into a.
veritable Babel—a concatenation of doubt-
ful readings—n miscellaneous scriptural pol-
yglot all in the Christian tongues. An
emendation of the reached version of our
Bible should. ‘never be undertaken except
by the most competent agency, and with the
universal cencurrcnce of all Christian denom-
inations. .Otherwise, the most deplorable
,mischiet‘s, may ensue, and without the gain of
one substantial advantage.

j TERRIBLE DISASTER IT SEA! ’

i Burning of a Steamship!

The steamship Connaught, of the Gulway
line, was burned at sea on Sunday, about 140
miles from lloslon Light. On Saturday she
sprung :r leak in the engine room; the crew
Slll’t'f‘llt‘tl in luv-ping it bclow the fires till K!

snmkc issuing from all. stroke hole. Nol-
willrslanding the ulmost exertions the tire
gaipctl and very soon drove the cabin anS‘l'H
gel-s on deck.

The water and tire both gaining, boats
were got ready in a heavy sea. The first
boat: lowered was stovc, and six others were
successfully launched and filled with passen-
gers. About. 1‘3, the brig Minnie Schiller
saw the signal and bore down. The cm-
barkaiiou of the passengers commenced at. ’i',
and at 0.30, the passengers, numbering, 467,
and the crew, lrumbcrlng 124, were with the
mails, safely placed on board the brig. The
passengers saved nothing but the clothes in
they stood. Capt. Leitch is unable to account
for the lcak which filled the vessel so rapidly
or for the origin of the fire which, from the
rapid prugniss it made after discoverv, is
supposed to have been smouldering for :r
lonrr time. h

’ bc brig arrivcd at Scituatc, Mass, Tucs-
dny morning. The last seen of the
steamer was at .2 o'clock Monday morning,
when shc was one masss of flame. She was
bound to Boston,but had touched at St. John
on the 3d, when-her news was sent bv tel-
egraph from that. port. '

This was the third trip out, of the Con-
naught. and she had proved to be in all I'c-
spccts a first class ocean steamer. She was
01'4400 tons burden, built of iron and finished
in the first style of workmanship. Her ex-
treme length was 37 8 feet, breath of beam 40
feet, and depth of hold 32 feet. She was built
in five water-tight compartmentswas launch-
ed at Noweastle-on-the-Tyne, and was justlv
regarded by her owners as one Of the swif‘tcst
and most substantial steamers afloat. The
Connangbt was valued at $600,000, and is
fully insured in England.

A WOMAN Turns Tun PRIZE AT A Prow-
ING Marrow—A rather unusual circumstance
occurred at a flowing match which lately
took placeat "augueray, (Shane) a young
woman, about nineteen, driving a pair of
oxen, presenting herself as one of the com-
petitors. Atfirst some objections were rais-
ed as to her admission, but under the circurn
stances of the case, they were set aside.—
Marie Chirat. the young girl in question, had
the misfortune to lose her father about ten
months ago. Hehad a lease of a. farm at
2,000f ayear, and when he died, left a wid-
ow, a little boy and Marie. Tire daughter,
feeling that to quit the farm in the middle of
the lease would be the ruin of the family,
told her mother not to be cast down, for she
would undertake to work the land. She
applied herself strenuously to the work, and
was soon pronounced to be the best condnc~
tor of a plough in the commune. That opin-
ion was confirmed at the public competition,
as the principal prize was awarded her. She
returned home in triumph to her mother, ac-
companied by a party of female friends.

WHOII. John M; Botts made an address
at Richmond, before an audience of tour or
five thousand people, in which he rebuked
the advocates of disnnion in the most decided
terms. The object of the followors of Mr.
Breckinrige, he declared to, bethe reopening
of the slave trade. Mr Botts though prefer.
ring the election of Bell and Everett, would
consider the success of Mr. Lincoln as any-
thing but a calamity which would call for a
disruption of the Confederacy. He said that
in ten days 300,000 soldiers could be raised to
protect the Union, without goin into a single
free state. He was loudl applauded.
Yancey also spoke in ichrnond the same
.evening, advocating Breckinridge, but he was
comparatively tame and did not ride his high
disunion horse.

Sennott was rudely interruped by a Breckin—
ridge man as follows :——“Aint you an aboli-
tionist? Didn’t you go down to Virginia to
defend John Brown ?"—Mr. S. (promptly and
with cmphasis)—J‘Am I a thief because I de-
fended you from a charge of larceny, and kept
you from the house of correction, where you
belong 1‘" This keen and cutting retort im-
mediately brought down the house in a roar
of applause, and the speaker proceeded in his
argument without any danger of further
interruptions from his inquisitive opponents.

merit the favorable criticisms that were
passed upon their execution.

Among the articles in fancy, work we no-
tice a Picture Frame, Card Basket, a Chair
200 years Old in which former Kings and
Princes were wont to be seated. The motto
in front of the Speaker‘s stand, as well as

Speaker’s head, Were worthy of notice as the
contribution of the fin‘rer sea! to the embel-
lishment of the Tent, who richly» merit, not
only for their contribution but‘for their per-
sonal presence and cooperation, a good share
of the honor.
