The Standard man and his friend the *' pedagogue” are on hands again, in the last Standard, with a rehash of their vapid taporinga and scurrilous blackguardism.— They demanded from us the proof that Walker or Douglas proved the President an * idiot” or a w lunatic.” We furnished it rather stronger than they could bear, and yet they have the un parallelled effron tery and unblushing impudence tosay, that we have merely: sai(f'that a it is so, because we said it was,” They say we “ cite no passages'” True wenlid not, because that would have occupied too much space.— But;then we gave the substance of them, ■s fairly as either of them could have done. They know that, and hence they attempt' by disparaging our construction of them, and blackguarding us, to-make their read ers believe we failed to produce the proof. As forthoir abuse we care nothing. It is like trifling and contemptible. But if .it will be more satisfactory to themj wewdß .givo them some more proof, and -Governor Walker, in his tetter •tb General Cass, says: tact, based os a long and intimate a>toel- Mm.witb''tho people of.Kaneas, that an overwhelming mjunrlty of that people ore opposed to that instrument; and mjumitMtate that but one out of twenty of tlic Press of it.” • • • • “Im teed, disguise it as wt may to ourselves under the influence of the present ex citement, the facts wilt demonstrate that apy attempt by Congress to force this constitution upon the people nfKan us, wilUw an. effort to substitute the will of a small minor- Ipr for that of an overwhelming majority of the people of Governor Stan ton corroborates this state ment, and adds: - •‘lt eaaonly b« milntalnod br th« *ran 6f the federal {TOBTIUPAAt forcing the constitution upon the people tgfc&tt jthelr declared will, aiui against every principle of Wptfffkinttßy democracy, tight, and justice.” - -The President is attempting to force this •wittdleupon the people of Kansas, ergo , by Walker to be cither an “ icUoJt’*pr a “ knave." Agaiu, Governor Walker, in his letter to Geb. Gass, Bee. 15th, 1857, says : -*■ In nineteen of theae, counties there was no cenenx. and lharefero there could be, no such apportionment* there of upon ench censne. Ami iu flft-en of those roitoiteftlhere was no registry of rotors. These fifteen coun ties, many of the oldest organized counties of the Territory, w4re entirely disfranchised, and did not gireand (by no unit of their own) could not give a solitary vote for delegate* to the conrention.” “In fifteen counties out of thirty-four, there was no reg istry, and not a solitary vote was given or could bo given fir delegate* to the convention fn any of these counties." Governor Stanton, in corroboration of this 1 fitoteinent, In his address to the peo ple'ofthe United States, says: “The regtotratton required bv law.had been Imperfect in all the counties, and had been wholly omitted In one-half of them ; nor oOuld the people of these disfranchised coun ties vote'in any adjacent coauty, as has been felidly sug gerted,” The President says everything connec ted with the Lccompton swindle was fair and legal, ergo, he is proved by Walker to be either an “ idiot” or knave. Wo might fill our columns with similar extracts, from the speeches and letters of Douglas and Walker, but they are unne cessary. These gentlemen don’t call the President an , “ idiot,” “ lunatic,” or “ knave,” but they prove it as clearly as could be done. If the Standard-man and the pedagogue” fail to see it, wc can on ly pity ;thc obtuseness of their intellects.

T. F. Wright, were stolen from the yard in the rear of his dwelling, in Allegheny. They contained about sixteen hundred newspa pers ; numerous letters, embracing a cor respondence for fourteen years past ; re ceipts of considerable value to Col. Wright; atid canceled notes to the amount of over three hundred thousand dollars. Wonder if several of our communications, donning him for the aviall sum of Six dollars and Thirty-seven and a half cents that he has owed us for more than a year, were among the papers stolen. If they were the Col. no doubt feels easier in con science since they have been abstracted, as they cannot any longer reproach him with his breach of honesty. But whether they were or not, we are sure that our re ceipt for the aforesaid small bill was not stolen, as we have never yet been so for tunate as to be called upon to grant him a receipt for the same. .

The following communication from the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Agricultu ral Society to a prominent citizen of our county, has been handed to ,us for publi cation. It is of general interest to the citizens of this Commonwealth, especially those partial to Agriculture and Agricul tural pursuits. It requires no comment ut out hands, as it is plain enough to be understood by all: Habbjsbue<j Apbil, 13, 1858. Sxb Your attention is called to the follow ing synopsis ofthe proceedings, of the “ Pcnn sylvanm State Agricultural Society,? at its late meeting, held bn the ICth of March of the cur rent jest- It was then “ Reto'ved, That David, Taggart and Amos E.

Bat to-day, in order to makeupjlbr lost time, I have determined to indite this epistle for you, and I fear without considering the most important part of the business, < 4 something to write about But as ** a faintheart never won a fair lady/’ here goes. I M ! Our hirsute friend. Mayor Vanx, has had a fine opportunity, daring the last week, of play ing the agreeable, which liis friends say comes so natural to him. A committee of Baltimore ans paid us a visit for the purpose, as is stated, of viewing our many city improvements. The record of their nightly peregrinations has not been made public as yet; but the reporters seom to have followed close by on their foot steps throughout the day, as the columns of our daily papers will testify, teeming as they did with the extensive accounts of the progress the Baltimoreans had made throughout our city.— Being paraded through our principal streets and only into our finest buildings, no donbt but that they will be able to take back with them the most glowing accounts. Will it nut be something to boast of? (and indeed.it is true.) They were all in Moyamensing prison, and notwithstanding it is considered to be most se curely guarded, they all escaped. The three great institutions of the city that seemed most to require their attention was our Mayor, the stream fire engines, and the police and fire alarm telegraph. As I have, in some of my former letters, explained the merits of the two first named institutions. I will take this oppor tunity of noticing the latter. A telegraph is a telegraph, all over the world, I suppose, but the particular purposes to which it is applied here, are peculiar with only one or two other cities. The efficiency that our fire department is noted for, is owing in a great measure to the manjler of giving alarms. Formerly, before the firepien could receive the notice that a destructive fire was raging, it was necessary for some one to make it known to the ringer of the State House bell, and this very ojt ten occasioned dangerous delay. But now, it is only necessary to go to nu alarm box, which may be found at almost every two or three squares. The signal being given, not only the bell ringer at the State House, to all the alarm boxes throughout the whole city, so that all the fire men know the exact whereabouts of the fire, and if in their respective district, they can im mediately repair to it. The telegraph has been very beneficial of late in restoring lost children to their parents, as also the means of decreas ing the circulation of counterfeit money. As soon as a new counterfeit is known to be out, it is made known to the inmates of the central po lice office, who transmit it by means of the tel egraph to the various police stations throughout the city, and thence it is made known to the various tradesmen, and op the morrow the whole city know it through the press. Its general utility in our city affairs baa brought great praise and honor to Mr. Philips, who, 1 believe, originated the idea of applying it to its present purposes. The llcv. Dudley A. Tyng, who, you may re member, raised quite a now in his congregation some time ago, by making his political views public from the pulpit, nlct with a sad and it is to be feared fatal accident, last week. It seems that he was superintending some threshing, and being in his dressing gown, suffered it to be caught in some of the machinery by which his arm was drawn into the machine. At last ac counts it is stated that in order to prevent mor tification his arm has been amputated. P. S.—Wince dead. SIGMA. The lioop Trade. For the edification of our numerous readers the ladies in particular—we clip the following description of one of the greatest “Hoop Skirt” pianufactories in I | this country, from an exchange. It will serve to show the extent to which; the ar ticle is worn by the women of this coun try, if not the dimensions, although they are almost equal;— “ Douglas & Sheiwood, the hoop skirt manu facturers, turn out 4000 skirts every day, and constantly employ five hundred hands, besides 180 sewing machines ; so says the Journal of Commerce. There is used each week not less than ouo ton of steal, to said the ladies in spread ing themselves. Several floors in a large buil ding ore exclusively occupied to their full ex tent with persons engaged, in cutting cloth, tape,; bone and steel, and manufacturing small metal lic pieces used in constructing the. skirt, —for all of which process cimiaingly devised machin ery is employed by those who are engaged in adjusting these parts to each other, and bring ing order out of apparent confusion. Hoop skirt making is a science, and one on which patient study has been bestowed, till by succes sive improvements, an Article of dress has been produced which is thought to be favorable to health, while it conduces to comfort and beau ty. To illustrate the difficulty experienced in. obtaining the exact desideratum, rattan, cord, whalebone and brass have been successively em ployed and rejected,,in whole or in part, as too brittle, too rigid, tob flexible, etc., and of course, much valuable machinery bad- to be thrown aside as useless, with eiush change introduced. Now, a kind of English jjsteel is substituted, af ter being subjected to a high heat, and'sdddenly being plunged into cold oil and again transfer red to a bath of melted lead to give it the prop er temper and elasticity. Such quantities of the material thus predated are used, that the railway train which forwards the weekly instal mentfrom Connecticut to the factory in New York, is yclept the “ hoop train,” and of course, is regarded with more !tihan ordinary considera tion.-, 3Che factory, with, its industrious popu lation of|6oo young women, is an interesting place toTisit.” f'M'f „V. - ' : -T Jit • A SuGHi Dmosbtbatios. —We learn from iua eye witness, that a fracas occurred in Phila delphia, oh the 24th uUi, between Mr. Rice, of the Penntylvantan, and.

The father, assisted by another man, was engaged in burning brushes, which bad been collected at different places in the field, and had several stacks burning at once. While so engaged, it was discovered that the child, who had been at one of the brush-heaps, was burning in a Blaze. Reibling- rescued the child, whose stockings and clothing prevented any serious bodily in juries from the burning. Provoked at the child for its mishap, the father took him to the housh, where there were no inmates, and, throwing the child in a bed, departed to his work in the field. Home minutes elapsed, when . the man who assisted Reibling directed the attention of the latter to a cloud of smoke coming out of the house. On reaching the building it was found that the child, still in bed, was completely sur rounded by fire, with all its clothes in a blaze. When rescued, the child was burnt almost to o crisp—the bead completely bare of hair-*—and survived only three or four hours. ] , Personal. —The Mobile Advertiser, speaking of Parson Brownlow, bolds the following com plimentary language: “ What must be the im pression as to the character of the Southern people upon the minds of the ignorant masses of the North when they behold and listen to this blackguard Tennesseean, and are told'that he is a minister of the Gospel, and the chosen champion of Southern institutions, sent among them by the people of the South? It was an unfortuate joke for Southern gentlemen, ns they did it, doubtless, only for the fun of thing, to have encouraged this coarse brawler in poli tics and religion, to go into the North and ex pound the merits of Southern institutions and Southern society. But the mischief has been done. The reverend ruffian lias already crossed the line, and the enemies of the South are doubt less, by this time, chuckling at the prospect of the damage which the reputation of the South ern people is certain to suffer in the minds of (lie Northern masses from the blackguard exhi bitions of this Tennessee parson.” RH E 1 il ATLSM AND NE V U ALGIA, Mum | iK.
