If We arc to believe the telegraphic
wires, (and wo. do not see .what incentive
they havcjito lie about it,) all Virginia,
and especially that part of it lying contig
uous to Harper’s Ferry, is in a terrible
all oiiginating out of a mere
supposition that the Abolitionists ore about
to attempt] to rescue old John Brojtvu from
their clulphos. The mere suppositions
took the form of rumors—not capable of
being traced to any responsible source, but
tetiJl sufficient to inflame the public mind.
A barn anil several stacks of wheat were
burned one night last week—a certain in
dication that the rescuers were on hand,
t 7
whereupon Col. Davis, the officer in com
mand at Charlestown. telegraphed to Gov.
Wise for troops, whicji were sent to . the
number of a thousand, with -field pieces
and ammunition, accompanied .by Gov.
Wise himself, who probably thought there
was some truth in a despatch wbicli an
nounced that parties had crossed from
Ohio into| Virginia at Wheeling.
Mow we do. not for one moment
bend any Saab a thing as an attempt at
rescue. Mad as the ultra Abolitionists
are, wc can'not for a moment believe that
any considerable number could be found
* ' S’ ■. ' i ' ■ ;
to set their lives upon a cost in such a
doubtful enterprise. The Virginians know
this too, hence they have simply made
fools of themselvbs in alarming their wives
and children unnecessarily.
The arijay pf the chivalry is to encamp
at until Old Brown and his
fellow prisoners have paid the penalty of
their folly! It will be a gala day when

tionists will not be there... to -haunt their

“Kpt Yet Quito Dead.”
The, Democrats ami ultra Republicans
UaVo been .preaching noil promulgating
the opinion that the American party is
dead, to sill intents and purposes. The
former wrote friendly epitaphs, and the
latter claimed take its place on the po
litical,chessboard. The American party
is not only .not dead, but in many of the.
Northern it holds the -balance of
power as-a seperate and distinct organiza

A Most Thrilling Adventure
Last Monday, morning, about eleven o’clock,
Bays the Portsmouth (Ohio) Tribune, the new
wire suspension bridge spanning the Scioto just
above its confluence at this place with the Ohio,
was uxidernuned and prostrated by the force of
the Scioto current. That morning, at an early
hour, Mr. JJ, 3. Cassidy, and two other citizen’s
of this place, crossed .the bridge in a buggy, on
a hunting expedition. They were but in the
woods all day. and had not heard of the fall of
the bridge. They returned in the evening, and
arrived at the crossing after dark. A span of
the .bridge reaching from the shore out over a
portion of tho river still remained as it had
been left by the structure, breaking in two.—
The hunters, all in fine spirits, and unconscious
of danger, started over the bridge The driver
noticed the horse hesitated after going some
distance, and urged the animal forward. The
poor brute Advanced a step or two, and again
stopped. The driver got out, and to bis horror
discovered the bridge gone, and the horse's
head projecting over the yawning gulf. They
#ere'on the very brink of death! Another
step forward would have plunged them down
into the raging torrent, where the angry waters
rushed like a race-horse to the Ohio.
A Decided Cuabacteb. —Miss Lacy Stewart,
of South Sci;uate, Mass., recently died at the
great age 0f;96 years. The following account
is given of her strange personal history;
Her father was a white man—a sea captain—
and her mother a full blooded Indian. She was
brought up in one of the first- families in the
town of Scituate, and ha<f until within a year or
two lived in the family down to the fifth gener
ation, Within that time she had been unable
to support herself and became an inmate of the
almshouse. She was a woman of gooditnanners
and possessed a great deal of pride. She was
much averse to going to the almshouse, and un
til the day of her death Was in the habit of dres
sing in a very gay style. She requested, j us t
before she died, to be laid out in her bright pink
dress, and lo have on her lace turban, which
was decked very gaily with feathers and showy
ribbons, and her ’kerchief round her neck. She
also wished, her coffin to be lined with flowers.
She also requested to be buried in the burial
ground with; and near the family she had lived
with most Of her days. She wished to be car
ried to the Methodist church and have the
Episcopal minister attend her. funeral. She re
quested the minister to state (which he did)
that she had never been out of the limits of the
town, and had never entered a church door un
til she was carried in for burial.
Biography or a Knife. —The Cleveland Her
ald relates the history and travels of a jack
knife, which passes to the “ homeliest man”
that can be found It says that about the year
1845, Dr. j.' V. C. Smith of this city, was pre
sented with;a large jack knife to which tradi
tion assigned a long list of homely owners, da-'
ting 6ack to the early days 'of New England.—
In that year the Dr. met the Lieut. General of
the BritishPr&pices, W. R. Stephenson, and,
struck by h|s .superior claims, at onco surren
dered thevaluable relic to his keeping. In
1851, the Lieut. General met Ossian E. Dodge,
and with eloquent speeches oh either side, the
knife was transferred. Whilst giving a concert
in 1858,-Dodge was accosted by Mr. J. S. A.
French, of Nashua, N. H. Stunned for the mo
ment by the personal appearance of the gentle
man; Dodge could scarcely answer the question,
but hurriedly presented the knife with a few
words of explanation. In the possession of Mr.
Frchch the knife has remained until a few days
since, when, conceiving ho had grown handsom
er than of oldj he returned the relic to Dodge.
.On tVednesday last, Mr. Dodge, impressed with
the wroog |»p was daily committing, in keeping
the relic ffiim its Rightful owner, presented it
to Charles F. Brown, of the Cleveland Plain
dealer.—Boston Advertiser. -
Affecting Incident.— -The scene of the
of the Royal Charter on the coast of
England, was at latest advices a most harrowing
'<s'«•!"One peculiarly' affecting incident is thus
related.. A poor young woman was searching
along the beach to endeavor Ip find some trace
of her husband.., about whose fate aho was un
certain. She discovered a Waistcoat which had
justlbeen Washrf ashore, and which had been
Kang up itf front of the tent by one of the coast
guaid. Alspost frantically she pulled it down.
T,t proved ; to bo that of her husband, a man
named Baijett, who had been painter aboard
the Roya! Charter. The grief of the poor wid
.ow yraa almost heartrending to witness. Some
of tire atanders : by in an attempt to comfort her,
.suggested |hat she might be mistaken. “Oh,

tered into a violent quatrel with that gentle
man, and presently shot him fatally in the
breast. The cause of the difficulty is not as
certained. Surmises as to the indescretions
on the part of the Queen, obtained momentary
currency, but were instantly discredited. No
statements have been made by the official pa
pers on the subject. Mr. Nelson was formerly
a resident of New York, and ifrom the accession
of Kamabamelto, until the fatal quarrel, had en
joyed the monarch’s unlimited confidence and
regard.
A Noble Little Girl.— Tho Warren town
Flag contains an account of a death, lost Thurs
day week, of a little gjrl of eight or nine years,
daughter of Mr Traverse Gough, living a few
miles from Haymarket. In the absence of all
older than herself her clothing took fire. She
first tried to Suppress the flames herself; then
she asked her little sister of four years to throw
water on her; but the little one ran, instead, to
call the neighbors. When they came, they
found her lying oat in the yard, and, in reply to
the question “ what she was doing there?” she
said. She thought if she staid in the bouse that
the house would catch fire, and burn tue baby
up too. What a noble, sensible remark for one
so young ! She retained all her faculties to the
last, conversed freely, and bore her sufferings
with a fortitude truly remarkable for one of
her age. The interesting little creature de
served a better fate.

THE GREAT RESTORATIVE.
FEVER AND AGUE CURED BY DR. M’LANE’S LITER PILLS.
US_ Mr- Jonathan fymgbman, of West Union, Park
County, Illinois, writes to the proprietors, Fleming Bros,
of Pittsburgh, that suffered greatly from a severe
and protracted attack pi Fever and Agud, and was com
pletely restored to health by the use of the Liver Pills alone.
Theeo Pills unquestionably possess great tonic properties,
and can bo token with decided advantage for many disea-;
ses requiring invigorating remedies; but the Liver PUls
stand pre-eminent as a jneans of restoring a disorganized
Liver to healthy action; hence the great celebrity they
bavo attained. The numerous formidable diseases arising
from a diseased Liver, which so long baffled the skill of
the most eminent physicians of the United States, are now
rendered easy of cure, thanks to the study and perseverance
of the distinguished physician whose name this great med
icine bears—a name which will descend to posterity as one
deserving of gratitude. This Invaluable medicine should
always be kept within reach; and on the appearance of the
earliest symptoms of diseased Liver, li can be safely and
usefully administered.

This is a purely vegetable compound, prepared on strictly
scientific principles, after the msnncrof the celebrated
Holland Professor, Boerhavo: Because of its groat success
in the most of the European States, its Introduction into
the United States was intended more-espccially for those
of oor fatherland scattered here and there ovi r ths face ol
tills mighty country. Meeting with great tuccess among
them, Xnow offer it to'the American public, knowing that
its truly wondepful medical virtues must be acknowledged.
It is particularly recommendedTo those persons whose
constitutions may have been impaired by the continuous
use of ardent spirits, or other forms of dissipation, flans,
rally Instantaneous in effect, it finds its way directly to the
seat of life, thrilling and quickening every nerve, raising
up the drooping spirit, and, in fact, (ufuting new health
and vigor in the system.

guard against purchasing. Be not persuaded to buy any
thing else until you hnve.given Bderhave’s Holland Bitten
a (air trial. One bottle will convince you how infinitely
superior it is to all these imitations! '
