(W ich is in the State uv Kentucky S< ptem ber I>, D v For fear that colored state ments of the late onhappy affair wich oc curred at this place may be sent Noith to the prejoodis uv the Democracy, I hereby make a calm and truthful statement uv it. I will prefix iny account by statin that the citizens uv the Corners bare alius desired to live on amicable terms with the colored men. feelin that their interests are more or less identikle. To show how completely we hev conkered our prejoodisses and bow much we desire peace. I will state that for a month ther hev bin only two niggers hung, and them under circumstances uv grate prov ocation. One of em made a face at Issa ker Gavitt, and totfcer refoostd to give Ker nel Punt credit for a lead of watermelons, claimin that the Kernel aheady nwed hitu, and that there wuz no law for a nigger to collect debts uv white men. Uv coorse we can't stand insleDce from em. j The late onpleasanlnis originated in this j wise. The llad:kics uv this county Led given out that they intended to held a po litikle meetin at this place on the 20th inst. I knew that ef they did it, blood would flow, : for I knowd the temper and feeling uv our pcacable citizens. To avoid bloodshed, I I sent word to em not to come—not to hold the meetin—that ef they did, I cood not be held responsible, . ther LI od wood be on i ther own heads. Partikerly I warned cm not to come armed, for our citizens wout stand that anyhow. We kin never permit j men who differ from us to carry arms, cz in ease we hev dispoots with em, they mite be i dangerous. My well meant endeavors wuz frootlis, and Issaker Gavitt thot he'd try. On ihe : uiornin uv the day, 1.-saker rode out to find ef they were bound to come in, aho wheth er thev wus armed. He returned rcportin uv em comin, and every man uv em armed to the teeth. At 10 A. M., the precession j entered the town headed by moosie and the nasbnel flag. Kz it pa-sed Ba&com's, Issa ker Gavitt, who hed a double barrelled shot gun in his band, happened accidentally to I let the hammer fall onto the nipple, when it | went off. Unfortunately it wuz pinted in the di recshun of the procession, and a nigger fell I from his horse with the top uv his head j bio wed orf. To increase the disorder a ; small rock, playfully throwed by Kernel Punt at about the same time, stru .-k anoth er one in the head, and several other rocks from others in and about Basoom's knocked several more uv em down. Hed the nig gers passed on quietly all wood hev been weil, but they didn't. Eager to quarrel, and full uv insolence, and reely seekin a pre ' text to embroil us, the procession stopped ; in wild confusion, many uv em takin to the woods to create the impression that they ; hed bin attackt. The dooplieity of the nig | ger character is beyond finding out! We ' wuz surprised at their brcakin up so sud denly, and for a miuit we didn't know what j to do' Ez the percussion stopt in front uv Bas corn's our citizens conjectured their design wuz to attack the grosery, which is reely the citadel uv the town. In Bascom'sisall the licker we hev; in Basoom's our innocent revels is held; and Basoom's we will defend to the last! What wuz we to do? Un armed and helplis, we were onprepared for thl-. But heaven smiled onto us, and gave us the means to defend ourselves.

IA a minit's time they wuz distribu ted, and afore the mob cood organize to ; make TBE attack, a well directed volley wuz poured into em. Tbis dismayed em, and ; the cntiie mass uv em, sich ez wuzu't kill- 1 cd, fled to the woods. Two uv tbe blood thirsty wretches wuz shot at the edge of; McPelter's woods by the Captain scd Elder j Pcnnibacker, who feared that they wuz go in in there to recognize and return to com plete their dreadful woik. Eider Peuui backer hit one inhuman villian with an ase. J which hed bin wounded in tbe leg and wuz I found in a comer uv his fence iryin to stop the flow uv the blood. All thnt day A posse uv citizens were engaged in quellen 1 the fears uv the community by huntiu down . these dangerous incenjarics with dorgs anJ i kil!in uv em, (or ez they exceeded us in J numbers we reely trembled for the safely i uv our wives and children. After a terrible day, the agitated town wuz restored to its wontiJ ptaee, and the ' citizens slept ez yoosual. The casualtes or, our side is not so large cz mite hev been ex ptctcd, when we consider the featful pur j pose uv the barbarians jrbo assaled us. Deekiu Pograni wuz seriously injoored by a rock which l-.-aker Gaviit histed strate up , in hisunthinkin excitement, and poor Ker nel McPelter's shot gun bust the second 1 time he fired it, tukin otf his thumb. These I .njoories sustained by our citizens may be I charged direct'-y to ihe infernal niggers, who i would provoke oar peaccfly inclined people. But they suffered for it. Eleven uv them . wuz killed, and some thirty or forty wuz wounded. The latter hev been all cared for They wuz taken to the County Infirmary for treatment—the expense being charged : up to em cz a lien upon their property, wich will, of course, be sold to defray it. Our citizens do not boast uv wat tbeybev done. They feci it wuz an oaplei-ant dooty they hed to perform, but they hed to do it. Corrupt and reckless men hev bin leadin the colored people a-tray, and ihey hed to • defend tbeirselves. Hed they only taken my advice, and not attempted to hold ther meetin, this wood not hev happened, lied, they not hev come into the Comers with m#>sie and a Nashnel flag a flyin, they wood not hev been killed. And even then, bed 'hey gone on quietly after the fust one wuz shot, and the others wuz knockt down with stuns, I doubt whether anything more wood hev bin dun. They sbo- dent hev held uieetins. We j kia never endoor a meeting uv nigger-, and j we Dever will. Kcowin tbis, why will they persist in boldin of em? The citizens uv the Corners agree anani mously {except Joe Biglerand Pollock) that all the blame mu.-t rest upon the niggers.

AND STAUNCHNESS OF HIS PATRIOTISM," AND THE "UPRIGHTNESS" OF HIS CHAIi- ACTEIL General Grant's temporary acceptance of ! the \V ar Department cau.-cf a stir in the i Republican party, which confuse# tbe cal I eolations of those Republicans who, five weeks ago, counted securely on his nomina tion as their candidate for the Pre-idcncv. Those Republican newspapers, therefore, which, like the Time*, are trying to identify I General Grant idth the Republican party. ' are oppo-ing a strong presumption by the j thinnest aud feeblest of shadowy inferences ' Gen. Grant, to be sure,/.*rare the execution of the Reconstruction act*, but so also doe- President Juhri-on. As they do not differ on this point, they probably differ on none which is pertinent to the present po-ture of affairs. President Johnson would indeed have had no such laws passed as he feei eonstrained to execute; nor is there arty eri ' ilencc that Gen. Grant en r favored, or tried to promote their passage. President John son concedes that Congress has practical control of reconstruction by consenting to execute the laws it has passed on that sub ject; and Gen. Grant finding these law- in force, recognizes their authority, without ijoing b- hi ml them to inquire whether they | ought to have been enacted. There is no evidence that tie President and Acting Secretary of War differ on anv important practical question. The fact that the Trib ■ one and other Republican journals object to Gen. Grant that he has never signified bis assent to their principles, deserves notice and consideration. Of the steadiness and staunchness of Gen. Grant's patriotism, or , the uprightness and the solidity of his char j netcr. no man in the country doubts, no.-aj -1 feels to doubt. The most perfect loyalty. then, may stand with the most absolute in- I difference to tho=E objects which the Repub lican party regards as supreme. Or, to ex press tbe same idea differently, devotion io Republican shibboleth is no te-t of devotion ito the country. On the score of loyalty and solid public *< races, no man in the country ■ an come into competition with this illustrious sodicr. But measure him by the usual, Loyal League standards, and it requires a magnifying gla.-s of very extraordinary pow er to discover that he has any merit of pa triotism at all. The Tribune is clamorous to have Gener al Grant sbow bis colors and take sides in the party squabbles of the day. We rejoice that there is one man in the country who is above the necessity of such belittling partisan ship. We trust that Gen. Grant loves bis whole country; that he desires the good of all its citizens, without regard to any divi ding lines—whether they be lines of party, or section, or raee, or color. It is the no blest reward of great services like his, that it exalts the character of this high level; that it enables a man to act nobly without appearing to be pretentious. Gen. Grant is under a moral necessity of respecting the great renown of his past services. It is be neath him to play any common part in vul gar politics. The Presidency can be noth ing to him; he has a more valuable office. But if in the hands of Providence, he amid be an instrument for tranquilizing the coun try. that is an honor for which he could af ford to sacrifice ease, congenial pursuits, and the responsibilities of greater fame as a sol dier, God forbid that he should descend into t the arena of party contests. If bo cannot be elected President without such a decent, he can do no good in the Presidency. Oar torn, lacerated, exasperated country needs soothing, needs pacification, needs oil on , ihe troubled waters, which still toss and dash after the recent tempest.

Prim's Proclamation - Isabella In Exile. PRIM S REVOLUTIONARY MANIFESTO. Soon after arriving at Cadiz. General Prim put forth the following proclamation: Spaniards, to arms; citizens, to arms! .' We have suffered long enough ! Tbe pa tience of people has it* limits in degrada- 1 lion, ami the Spat i.-h nation, if it has some times been unfortunate, has never ceased to be great, and cannot continue in tearful : resignation, to support endless evils without falling into abject baseness. It Las, there fore, sounded the tocsin of revolution—a ! heroic remedy, it Is true, hut inevitable nnJ j urgent when the salvation of the country 1 j demands it. Principles liberal enough to ! • satisfy present necessities, and men sensible | ; enough to fure3ee and respect the aspirations ' of the future, mizht have obtained without j violent changes tbe tran.-forroarioa of our ' country. But the per.-istenee of an arbi j trarv policy, the obstinacy of doing wrong and thu Kindness of immorality which, i descending from a high quarter, has com : mcnccd already to infiltrate itself into the I organization of society, after having bepois oncd tbe Government of the State, iu making the administration a policy of bargaining, : and justice a pedestal for all iniquities, have j unfortunately retarded all salutary con lees-ions, and isolated Spain in the general ; movement of the civilized nation.- of tbe j globe. To arms, citizens, to arms! Lot ! the cry of war he to-day the only cry of all ■ good Spaniards. Let all Liberals, during ; the battfe. forget their former differences, and patriotically sacrifice their personal rancors far the salvation of the country. , Finally, let there be only one project in the | great Libera! communion, namely, battle ! but one end, victory! and but one flag, "The regeneration of the country." To destroy, in the midst of confusion, the ! obstacles which are systematically opposed to the prosperity of people—that is the end if armed revolutions. But to instruct ! oneself in the midst of calm and reflection— j that Is tbe end which ought to be sought by nations which desire to conquer by their valor their sovereignty, and which know how to show themselves worthy of it by con serving it by their prudence. Let us there fere to day destroy what time and progress ought to have transformed by degrees, but i without stopping lor the solution of ques tions which future circumstances - may render unreliable, and without prejudging ques tions which, by weakening tbe ardor of the combat, lessens also the sovereignty of the nation. And when calm returns, when re flection replaces action, all parties may then without danger unfurl their colors, and the people, making use of sovereign peace, may constitute itself as it judges best, and for that object seeking iu universal suffrage ail the guarantees which it thinks ncee--ary for the eonqut-ct of its liberties and the exercise -jC it.2 right?. Gcu rals Serrano and Dulce, like mc, are swong ttre illustrious seamen who. impelled by the love of their country, have put themselves at the head of the movement with tbe national squadron. But a naval accident has. in spite of themselves and with r grtt on my part, retarded their arrival. 1 -peak, therefore, not only iu my name, but , ra the names of those illustrious Generals. I Spaniard-, military and civil, the country ;is iu want of our efforts ! Do not be deaf to i the cry of the country —a crv full of the suffering of our fathers, of our wives, of oar HOBS, and of our brothers! Fiy to the c .mba; without heed of the insufficiency of our armies! AU are good when the defense of the honor ol tbe country is in question, and conquer once more our liberties, which have been trampled under foot? Call up the energy of our ancestors: let us endeavor to reconquer the esteem and admiration of foreign nations, and. finally, show ourselves worthy sons of coble Spain! PRIM. HOW TRIM RE-ENTERED CADIZ. "'Prim's entrance into Cadiz was a-scene of almost delirious enthusiasm. We have bad an account of it from an eye-witness, w!. h arrived here this morning, and I have a; 0.--en a short letter from Prim to a friend, in which he describes it in few but energetic words. The whole city was out. mad with delight, men and women crowding round the successful General, embracing and thanking him' Tbe Gaditanos are a de monstrative people, and on this occasion tl ey sc- in to have almost gone out of their sen.-es with joy. One of the first things to be done, now that all was secure hi Cadiz, ' was to send a messenger to Seville, and a ! well-known progressists journalist was des : patched thither. As soon as the chiefs of ] the liberal party heard of the success of the I movement at Cadiz they rose and the : garrison rose, and the whole city besides: and the Captain-General of the province, old General Yassalh), who declined joining, rec.ive-d a pass and departed northwards. A revolutionary committee or juora was at once formed, having for its President Senor Aristegni, well known and mneh esteemed as a true, liberal, and disinterested man, who has never held office, but has always maintained a high reputation as an honor | able patriot. He is a leading man in Seville, i and probably some of your readers have • visited his valuable gallery of pictures, which is one of the lions' usually shown to | strangers in that city." THE DUKE OF MONTPENSIER. The Gaulois publishes the following state ment. the purport of which is confirmed to mc from other quarters: — "A personage who has been mixed up with Louis Philippe's politics, and remained on intimate terms with the Princes of tbe Orleans family, went to Biarritz and sought an iuterview, whioh was immediately gran ted. 'Sire,' said the personage in question, I am entrusted with no mi.-sion from any one to your Majesty. I come here of toy own aecord, to say that, whatever may be the result of forthcoming events, I am per j Ibctly certain that the Duke of Montpensier i will never authorize the Duchess to accept j Queen Isabella's succession. The Duke knows that Spain needs to be on good terms S with France, and he is perfectly aware that I his personal position would place the king dom in great difficulty. NotbiDg in the : world would induce him to accept the re j sponsibility of the events which might fol low the Duchess of Montpensier's accession !to the throne. His resolution on this score is so far determined that your Majesty may ; consider my statement as a formal renuncia ; tion of the Spanish crown on the part of the i Puke and Duchesa of Moutpeasier.' The VOL,. 41: XO. 40 Emperor, in reply, said that he had the created esteem for the character of the I'tike and the virtues of the Duchess, but that politic* had exigencies above all con-, operations of feeling, and that he was happy . to hear that the Duchess of XlontjieDsier, in | accordance with her husband's good advice, dismissed any idea of ascending the throne > ' of Spain." QUEEN ISABELLA IN EXILE. The dethroned Queen was rtill at San Se-1 ba-tian at last accounts. The Bordeaux ! ; Grande gives the following pa-ticuiarsof , her scjourn there:— ' Secluded, almost in eolitude, in her pal ace, through whoie saloon* streams of cour tiers and guests so lately passed, the Queen ; is reported to give vent to bitter sarcasm in | speaking of her lonely and deserted condi ; tion. Her intendant, Marloi, who—to everybody's indignation—is seen strutting j ! about the streets, appears to be her Mojes ; ; ty's only confidant. Now that her reasons ; for pn.tpor,if*s IfcAr i,n unj r..—5—11 x,l ' tlide; and that scnspiracy will fail. But a few months afterwards you will see another rising, of a more extensive and decided na- | ture. Our great towns are ready for that; and, be sure, the pronuriciamento will be made." The prediction thus communicated several months ago has certainly come to be fulfilled. THE BIBLE. I was reading a deeply interested tale in which a French gentleman brought his wife home otie day a present. "What do yon ; think it is? " said he. He gave it into her ; hand, and she found it to be a Bible. Both were infidels. "The book-seller said no, I ] brought it as a piece of antiquity." The! book was then laid on the shelf. Many months passed away. One day, the gentle- | man set alone in Lis study, full of sorrow: j his first born baby was dead, and his wife j jhf"* li& rlci-porof- LA AIM 1 paced the room. Suddenly his eye glanced on the piece of antiquity. lie took it dowD carelessly turned over the pages. The first passage she saw were in Job xiv: 1, 24; be closed the book angrily; yet his mind was disturbed. Days passed; the wife still lived and the husband kept solitary in Lis library; but a change bad come over him. ; Again he took to the Bible; he read hour ! after hour: midnight come on, and even day j dawn, yet still he read. Another day, and j his wife revived. When permitted to see her, he told her about the book he bad been reading, and that it had made him very unhappy. She said: "We will burn the ! dismal book.'' "Wo must not turn it," he replied. As weeks passed on, and the wife was getting better, she so wi-hed to share her husbank's distress of mind, that she pur suaded him to bring the piece of antiquity to her chamber. She read it sometimes aloud, sometimes with her husband, and j seemed to find pleasure and tranquility in it. She said one day to him: "If this book is true (as it surely is.) our condition is very happy." Time wore on- Both read and studied tb is precious book, and found promise; light shone into their dark seals, and the piece of antiquity proved to them (as it will, with God's blessing, to all who read it,) truly a "lamp unto their feet, and a light unto their path." LITTLE SINS.— An ingenious mode of ti rer killing is that which is employed by the natives of (Jude. They gather a num ber of broad leaves of the prauss-tree, which much resembles the sycomore, and having well besmeared them with a kind of bird-lime, they strew them in the animal's way. taking care to lay them with prepared side uppermost. Let a tiger but put his |iaw on one of these innocent looking leaves and his fato is settled. Finding the leaf sticking to his paw, he then shakes it in or der to rid himself of the nuisance, and find ing the plan unsuccessful, he endeavors to attain his object by rubbing it against his face, thereby smearing the ropy bird-lime over his nose and eyes, and gluing the eye lids together. By this time he has probably troddeu ujion several more of the treacherous leaves, and is bewildered with the novel in convenience, then he rolls on the ground and rubs his head and face on the earth, in his efforts to get free. Bv so doing he only adds fresh bird-lime to his body, and limbs, agglutinates his sleek fur together in un sightly tufts and fini.-hed by hood-winking himself so thoroughly with leaves and bird lime,, that he lies floundering on the ground, tearing up the earth with his claws, uttering howls of rage and dismay, and exhausted by the impotent straggles in which he had teen so long engaged. These cries arc a signal to the authors of his mischief, who ran to the spot, anaed with sruns, bows and spears, and find no difficulty in dispatching their blind and much wearied foe. What more striking illustration of the danger of yielding to the first temptation! The deceit and falsehood resorted to in hiding a knowledge of the fact. Sin upon sin. But temptation once yielded to, mul tiplies its power over us. Thus smear, leaf after leaf, till we are the powerless victim and prey of our sins. A LETTER from Burlington. Vt, closes as j follows: "Business is at a stand still here. We are all busy burying Democrats. Shall finish in November." A POOR woman can see more sympathy in a sixpence than in streams of tears.

Edgar de la Charme, who for a number of days together never left the gaming room at Baden Baden without carrying off the sum of twenty-four thousand francs. The Figaro gives the following account of the close of his cam j paign: ' The day before yesterday M. de la Ciianne, reflecting that there must be an end even to the greatest run of luck, locked his portmanteau, paid his bill, and took the road to the railway station, accompanied by some of his friends. On reaching the wicket he found it closed; there were still three quarters of an hour to pass before the departure ol the train. 'I will go and play my parting game,' he exclaimed; and turning to the coachman, bade him drive to j Karseal. His friends surrounded him and held him back: he should not he would ' lose at! ins winning* But lie was resolute, and soon reached the Casino, where his traveling dress caused a stare of satisfaction among the croupier?. He sat down at the trente et quarente, broke the bank in twen ty minutes, got into his cab again, and seeing the inspector of the tables walking to and fro under the arcades he said to him, in i tone of exquisite politeness, 'I could not think of going away without leaving you my i R R C '" BEING AGREEABLE. The art of being agreeable is to appear well pleased with all the company: and ' rather seem well entertained with thein than to bring entertainment to them. A man thus disposed, may not have much learning nor much wit, but if he has com mon soDsc, and something friendly in his ixbavior, it conciliates men's minds more than the brightest parts withoat this dispo sition; and when a man of such a turn comes to old age. he is almost sure to be treated with r, spc-et It is true, that we should not dissemble and flatter in company: but a man may be very agreeable, strictly consis tcat with truth and sincerity by prudeDt si knee when he cannot concur, and a pleas inga-sent where he can. Now and then yon meet with a person so exactly formed to please, that he will gain upon every one who hears or beholds him: this is not merely the gift of nature, but frequently the effect c f much knowledge of the world, and a com mand over the passions. THE HUSBAND. Ladies sometimes do not value their hus bands as they ought. They not unfrcquently ,earn the value of a good husband for the ' first time by the loss of him. Yet the hus band is the very roof-tree of the house, the corner stone of the edifice, the keystone of the arch called home. He is the bread-win. r,cr of the family, its defense and its glory, the beginning and ending of the golden chain of life which surrounds it, its consoler, its. law triver and king. And yet we see how frail is that life on which so much de pend.--. How frail is the life of the husband and father! When he is taken away who shall fill his place? When he is sick, what gloomy clouds hover over the house! When he is dead, what darkness, weeping, agony! Thea poverty, like the murderous assassin. I break? in at the window: starvation, like a famishing wolf, howls at the door. Widow j hood is too often the associate of sackcloth and ashes. Orphanhood too often means desolation and woe, A NEW ARMOR PLATING.— A newly invented armor plating was recently the subject of interesting experiments in the presence of the Emperor Napoleon 111. This substitute for steel plates is made of felt, vegetable fibres and a woven fabric, an d is compressed by the action of powerful machinery until it becomes as solid as cast metal. At the trial it was tested both as a coating for .-hips and as a breast-plate. The Chasscpot gun, it is stated, could not pene trate the felt, and a revolver discharged close to the surface produced no effect The Emperor, it is reported, has given orders for a trial of this substance on a large scale, so as to ascertain its applicability to ships of war. PROSPECTS OF THE SOUTH. —Nature has been bountiful to the South this year, and furnished it with the means of relief from many pressing social and financial cmbarras oK-ntr. The comparatively favorable cotton, I corn and tobacco crops may Dot be sufficient to cause a return to the former general prosperity, but they, at least, place all clas ses in a better position respecting the im mediate present and future. At the present prices of cotton, the South will realize not less than §200,000,000 from this staple, and probably about half as much more from tobacco, corn and other products. It will tbus have a solid basis of about §300,000, 000 upon which to proceed. ADVICE TO YOVKO MJK.—Let the busi ness of every one alone, and attend to your own Don't bay what you don't want. I'sc every hour to advantage, and study to make a leisure hour uesful. Think twice before you spend a dollar; remember you will have another to make for it. Look over your books regularly, if a stroke of mis fortune comes upon you in your business, retrench, work harder, but never fly the track. Confront difficulties with unflinch ing perseverance, and they will fly at last; then you will be honored, but shrink, and you will be despised. XIOPESTT is not only an ornament, but also a guard to virtue. It is a kind of quick and delicate feeling into the soul, which makes her shrink and withdraw herself from everything that has danger in it. It is such an exquisite sensibility, as warns her to shun the first appearance of everything which is hurtful. WHAT is said from the feeling of the moment should excite but feeling of the moment. ACKNOWLEDGING WC have been in the wrong is oaiy showing that wc arc truer to day than yesterday. HUMAN nature is so constituted, that all see, and judge better, in the affairs of other men than in their own. A good word is an easy obligation; but not to speak ill requires only oar silence which costs us nothing. THE best consolers of human hearts may bear broke# hearts in their own bosoms,
