ke" We publish this week, the usual an-',
nual call for the Democratic County Conven
tion. The " People's Party" are abundant
ly supplied with candidates; twenty or more
for Sheriff, about a dozen for Treasurer, and
a liberal number for the lesser offices. Among
the Democrats, there are few candidates—
very few anxious to serve the people. For
Sheriff, we have heard proposed the names
of Thos. Bell, of Barree, R. F. llaslett, of
Morris, David Black, of this place, Samuel
Miller, of Mt. Union, and John M. Stonerod,
of Birmingham. For Assembly, J. K. Metz,
of Brady, J. Simpson Africa, of Huntingdon,
and Jacob Cresswell, of Cassville. For Com
missioner, James Henderson, of Cassville,
Jacob 11. Miller, of Union, John Hirst, of
Barree. The names of other gentlemen, will,
no doubt, be brought before the Convention
fir the offices named and others, but the
above are all we have heard spoken of.
" The mill of Fisher S. - , McMurtrie is
an excellent one, but it stores no grain, per
haps, from the fact that it can grind all that
is now brought here."
The above we find in the Huntingdon cor
respondence of the Shirleysburg Herald of
last week. "Quisquis" is in error in stating
that Fisher & McMurtrie stores no grain.—
They may not have stored much grain last
year, for the reason that there was but little
in the country to store. This year, great
quantities will be brought to this market and
stored by the firm. Their mill will not he
able to grind all the grain that can be, and
is likely to be brought to this market.
`• YOUR MOSEY on YoUn PL-10E."—A wri
ter in the Washington States, a Democratic
paper, asserts that General George Washing
ton Bowman, the reputed editor of Mr. Bu
chanan's organ, the Constitution, has, fur
sometime, been engaged in levying forced
contributions of six dollars from each and
every subordinate holding office in the vari
ous departments at Washington, the money
to be applied to the sustenance of that disor
ganizing Federal paper !
The editor of the States, in his issue of the
28th ult., says :—" We understand that the
levies realized from the Post-Office Depart
ment yesterday by Brigadier-General George
Washington Bowman, amounted to about one
thousand dollars. This is certainly a very
good day's work.
e- Mr. Senator Brown, in his late speech
at the barbacue in Mississippi, given in his
honor, stated his position in regard to the
Charleston Convention to be as follows. We
do not see that he is read out of the party by
the organ of the President for this frank cx-
pression of opinion :
"The Democratic party was being Aboli
tionized. It reftised to acknowldge th 6 duty
of Congress to protect slavery in the Territo
ries. He proclaimed that the only hope of
the Southern Democracy was to make a fight
in -the Charleston Convention—to go there
determined to have their views incorporated
in the creed of the party, or burst the concern
up in a row. He had no doubt, as they had
heretofore controlled tho party on all great
questions, that the Northern Free-soil element
would yield in graceful submission again.—
If it did not, why, then apply the torch to
the great temple of Democracy, and blow the
concern to finders."
TUE WHEAT CROP IN LANCASTER Co.—The
wheat crop throughout Lancaster county, we
are told, will this year be the heaviest and
best ever produced. A writer in the Daily
Express says, "there . was more grain harves
ted on the 4th of July, 1850, than ever in one
day befurc. The day itself was the best ef
fort of Almighty perfection. The wheat crop
the best that ever grew here—more acres—
more bushels to the acre—more pounds to
the bushel. The weather cool and moist,
gave time and liquid for perfect filling of the
beads--agriculture having reached a higher
point than ever before."
Similar reports reach us from nearly all the
surrounding counties, and we have no hesita
tion in stating that the present will he the
most pi•ulilic grain s , -ason in the whole histo
ry of Penusyl van ia. he earth literally groans
beneath the weight of its cereal burden.—

CORRESPONDENCE OP THE GLOBE.
YELLOW SPRINGS, Juno 25, 1859
FRIEND LEWIS :—Knowing your willing
ness to assist those who are entitled to our
sympathy, I make no other apology for asking
you to publish this, than to assure you, that
by so doing you will confer a favor on one
altogether worthy. My object is to call the
attention of your readers to a book, published
some time ago, by Miss Mary Rankin, of Ca
noe Valley, Blair County, entitled " The
Daughter of Affliction." I have just return
ed from a visit to this talented, though seem
ingly unfortunate lady. For twenty years
she has been an invalid—ten of which she
was never able to rise from her bed. When
quite young, she received an injury from hav
ing a white thorn run in her foot, and since
that time, she has suffered from nearly every
disease that human flesh is heir to, so that
she can, with great propriety, appropriate to
herself the title of the "Daughter of Affliction!'
Her book is an auto-biography, in which she
shows how she has been sustained by divine
grace under all her afflictions, and written in a
style which proves the authoress to possess ex
cellent qualifications. She is undoubtedly en
titled to a liberal patronage from a Christian
public—relying for her own and a widowed
mother's support on the sale of her work. Let
all who enjoy the blessing of health, and are per
mitted to roam at pleasure wherever they will,
remember their afflicted fellow-being, who is
confined year after year to her room. Any
person purchasing one of these books, will re
ceive full value for their money, and, at the
same time, be rendering a benefit to one who
deserves to be patronized. Now, I wish it to
be understood, that in writing this article, I
am actuated by no pecuniary motives, but du
it as an act of justice to one who has labored
hard to prepare a book for . the public, and is
of a retiring and unassuming disposition.
Truly Yours,

SAINT Louis, June 30, 1859
DEAR Sin :—Thinking you would like to
have some news from our Western country.
in reference to our future prospects, crops,
etc., and as I have had the pleasure of read
ing your paper of date 22nd inst., and was
born and raised in your county, and used to
read your paper with great interest, I take
this opportunity of saying that business has
been very poor in our city since the panic of
1557. There has been a great deal of suf
fering in this western country in consequence
of the failure of crops for the two years back.
I am creditably informed• that in the north
ern part of lowa, the people are in a desti
tute condition, and. God only knows what will
become of them until after harvest. In our
own State, there has been a great deal of suf
fering, but not so much as in other States
north of us and adjoining. In the northern
part of Illinois, they have lost at least one half of
their stock by starvation. Some farmers
have lost all, some one half and others, more or
less, in consequence of not having provender
to feed them. We are beginning to look up,
and from present appearances, this western
country will be blessed with one of the best
crops of all kinds of grain they have ever
had; and I think this growing crop will put
every body on their feet again, and we shall
have a thriving business for the next ten or
twelve years. Illinois, lowa and Wisconsin
pay their attention more to the raising of
wheat, corn, and potatoes; our State, Mis
souri, raises hemp and tobacco, hence the
difference in the condition of the western
States. It is not often that hemp and tobacco
fail.
Saint Louis is improving very rapidly, and
there 'is a great deal of wealth in this city.—
I came here in the year 1845, when it was
comparative small, and have lived here ever
since, and have seen it grow from a city of
from about fifty thousand to the neighbor
hood of two hundred thousand. It is aston
ishing to see the emigration to this city,
though there is one consolation ; there is
room - for all who may wish to come. Rents
are very high ; a house of six rooms, inclu
ding the kitchen, will rent from six to seven
hundred dollars per year, providing it be a
desirable location, and has all the modern
improvements. Wholesale store houses rent
from one to six thousand dollars. It requires
a man to make a great deal of money to make
both ends meet, as provisions of all kinds
are high. All kinds of fresh moat sell in
market at from 12 to 15 cents per pound,
and vegetables and everything else in propor
tion, hence you see the expense we are under.
Respectfully Yours,
A. B. M. TIIO.3IPSON.
MONMOUTH, WARREN CO., ILL.,

EDITOR GLOBE:—After a longsilence, I have
again found time -to write a few lines to let
your readers bear from this region, and first,
as to the weather. We have a very favorable
season, so far, for the growing crops; the
wheat is doing pretty well, though it will not
be an extra crop under any circumstance.—
As much of the wheat sown was damaged,
and did not come up well, it stands in general,
thin on the ground, and owing to the failure
of last season, seed was scarce, and there was
less sown than usual, but if it fills well, there
will be a fair crop. As yet, there is much
uneasiness felt as to the result, since last
year it promised very well till within a few
days of harvest, and then was almost totally
blighted—a few days more will tell the tale.
The corn is doing very well ; there is a good
stand, generally, and it has been pretty fa
vorable for tending it. Times are dull yet,
though the prospect io bettor than it was
some time ago, and if our crops does any
ways well, hard times will disappear—after
awhile, at least.
The Pike's Peak fever took a•few of our
citizens, and, after carrying them off to the
outside bounds of eiviliiation, it left them
to make their way home the best way they
could. Some got back depleted in purse con
siderably, while a few pushed on, determined
to see the Elephant in full, at Pike's Peak,
and if not satisfied then, to make their way
through to California.
Our town has been considerably excited
once or twice, within the last month, with
mad dogs, as yet, no damage has been done
to anything but the canines. A number of
them fell victims to the marshall of our good
ly city.
The Masons had a turn-out on the 24th of
June, on the occasion of the dedication of a
new Hall, lately fitted up. The Order here,
is in a good condition, and bids fair to live
and flourish, despite the Anti-Masonic excite
ment that chilled it so completely in Penn
sylvania, " when we were boys." The Good
Templars, however, are the most popular
Order here just now, as they take in the
women ; they have a Lodge of over 150 mem
bers, and have had quite a good effect in dry
ing up the flow of corn whiskey in this
place.
But I must close this scrawl, and will try
and give you an occasional letter in the fu
ture, if you desire it, though my time is so
much occupied, I cannot promise to do so
very often. Yours, &c.,
MILLERSVILLE, LANCASTER CO.,
July 7, 1859.
Ma. EDITOR : —There appears to be•a time
for everything. The great Governor of the
Universe has so wisely arranged his affairs,
that they may be suited to the avocations of
man. He has given him a day and a night,
the former being the time to work, and the
latter the time to rest. He has also given
him a seed time and a harvest, a summer and
a winter. This morning, as I was sitting in
my room, pouring over a mathematical prob
lem, my train of reasoning was broken by
the sound of whetting of scythes, and the rat
tling of machinery. I looked in the direction
from whence the noise came, and soon my at
tention was directed to some seven or eight
Lancaster county farmers, who were busily
engaged in cutting the "golden grain." I
thought of the old proverb "There is a time
for everything," and that now was the time
set apart for gathering the rich harvest, and
the sturdy farmer was at his post performing '
the duties of his noble professional. But I
must proceed to something else. We have
had some very pleasant weather here fur sev
eral weeks, which afforded the farmers a
good opportunity for making their hay—the
most of them are done, as it does not take
them quite as long to cut their grass and
make their hay in this neighborhood, as it
does some places. The farmers here have
several advantages in many respects, the land
being comparatively level, and the farms are
not generally very large, hence they can farm
their land better and keep everything in per
fect order. When they go into a field with
the reaping or mowing machine, they need
not be afraid of running against a stone or
stump; as for the former, they are all care
fully gathered and hauled off the fields, and
the latter are taken out of root, therefore
they have every opportunity of using machin
ery in cutting their crops. Most of the farm
' ers do not use the scythe at all, in cutting their
grass—the mowing machines have taken their
place.
The " old hooks" are seldom used by many,
except for the purpose of trimming out the
fence corners, and perhaps it would he well
enough to state here, that this does not re
quire quite as much time and hard labor as
it does in some places where it is almost impos
sible to see the fences fur briars, thorn bushes,
&c. I think that I have never seen a better
wheat crop than what there is in this neigh
borhood ; in short, I have not seen any poor
grain since I came to Lancaster county ; it
stands thick and is well filled. They do not
raise as good rye here as they do in Stone
Valley, Huntingdon county, owing, probably,
to the quality of the soil and its elevation, as
rye generally does better on high shale land.
As for the corn and oats, they look line, and
bid fair for an abundant crop. Fruit is not
very plenty, except cherries, and we have
been eating cherry pies for the last four
weeks, and only yesterday, I had the exqui
site pleasure of receiving from some unknown
friend, a box, containing about eight quarts
of the choicest cherries—would that I knew
who sent them—students love such presents.
The peaches appear to be doing no good;
there is some kind of an insect destroying the
trees in this neighborhood ; the leaves curl
and look quite yellow, and the peaches have
all fallen off. There are some apples, though,
I am told, they arc much scarcer than they
have been for three years.
The Fourth was ushered in at Millersville
by the Millersvile brass band parading through
the town at 2 o'clock in the morning, and
fillinr , the air with their sweet strains. The
band also paraded at 9 o'clock, and its music
was highly commended by all. At 1 o'clock,
P. M., a procession was formed by the stu
dents of the Normal School, and, preceded
by the band, marched to a grove where a
platform was erected for the occasion, and
the day was spent in waltzing. It is hardly
necessary to state, that where youth and
beauty meet, the time could not but pass
pleasantly away. DELTA.
LOCAL COR,R,ESPOVDEXCE
CASSVILLE, July 8, 1859.
MR. EDITOR:—The festivities of our Nation
al Anniversary being now over, I shall at
tempt to give you a sketch of the doings
which that day of renown witnessed, in our
vicinity. " As previously arranged, a proces
sion was formed in the village at ten o'clock,
A. M., and marched, with national banners
waving, and the aspiring notes of martial mu
sic swelling on the free mountain breezes, to
the grove in which the celebration was to be
held. Here all found pleasant seats beneath
the green foliage, and the appointed exercises
wore begun. Music was announced, and the
melodeon was tuned by gentle fingers to notes
of melting harmony, while, through the quiv
ering leaflets, happy and tuneful voices seat
up to Heaven a song of praise. Then, while
the dying echoes still lingered, all reverently
bowed, and joined in mingled prayers and
thanksgivings to the beneficient Father of
Good. With grateful hearts, 'were recoun
ted the blessings of the past and the present;
the triumph of liberty ; the establishment of
a great empire founded upon the glorious
platform of human rights ; the peace and
prosperity which, while Europe is shaken as
by an earthquake, dwell within our borders.
Then recognizing the great principles of the
bible as the foundation of our national free
dom and prosperity, the divine blessing was
fervently implored upon the efforts of the
good, to make those principles universal.—
There is inspiration in such a scene. Happy
America! Vainly shall the boding prophets
of ill foretell thy doom, while such are thy
children. The prayer ended, again music
woke its harmonies, and then the Declaration
was read. And though eighty-three years
have revolved since the winds first bore that
burden to eager-listening ears, not less warm
ly did they that heard, embrace its message,
meanwhile, their spirits thrilling with the
glorious sentiment, "Independence now, and
independence forever." After singing "The
Union Forever," an oration was delivered by
Rev. J. M. Elderdice. His subject was "This
Land of Ours," and well shall it be with our
land while she boasts such defenders. I dare
not attempt to render the oration its just
award; but the beaming countenances and
and thrilling nerves of the audience told its ef
fect. Then was sung "Our Father Land,"
and, the yearly oblation at Freedom's shrine
being now offered, the remainder of the day
was devoted to banqueting and gala-day
amusements. The bountiful dinner; the Fair,
where fair ladies sold commodities of manu
facture, not to be excelled by fairy craft; the
swing, thirty feet high, and swift as the wild
bird's wing; all the varied round of joys
that make up a rural celebration, were enjoy
ed to the full. The day closed with a con
cert, and the weary revelers sought their pil
lows, happier for the recurrence of the na
tion's birth-day. C. C.

HIGHLY INTERESTING DETAILS
Thirty : five Thousand Austrians placed Hors

—Another battle expected—The Austrian re
serve on their way to Italy—Antwipated at
tack on Venice—lleroism of the Sardinians.
The following telegrams contain all that is
known in regard to the great battle on the
24th of Jane:
NAPOLEON TO TILE EMPRESS
CARRIANA, June 25, 1.30 P. M.—lt is im
possible as yet to obtain the details of the bat
tle of yesterday. The enemy withdrew last
night, I have passed the night in the room
occupied in the morning •by the Emperor of
Austria.
Gen. Niel had been appointed , Marshal of
France. •
CARRIANA, June 26, 11.30 A. M.—The
Austrians, who had crossed the Mincio for
the purpose of attacking us with their whole
body. They have been obliged to abandon
their positions and withdraw to the left bank.
of the river. They have blown up the bridge
of Goita. The loss of the enemy is very con
siderable, but ours is much less. We have
taken 30 cannon, more than 7,000 prisoners,
and 3 flags. Gen. Neil and his corps d'armee
had covered themselves with glory, as well
as the whole army. The Sardinian army in
flicted great loss on the enemy after having
contended with great fury against superior
forces.
The Paris Pi-me says that private messages
from Berno are spoken of, which put down
the Austrian loss at the enormous number of
35,000 hors du combat, and 15,000 taken pris
oners, together with 16 flags and 75 pieces of
cannon. This, however, lacks confirmation.
The following is the order of the day, pub
lished by the Emperor Napoleon, after the
battle of Sulferino :
"CARRIANA, June 25.—Soldiers : The ene
my, who believed themselves able to repulse
us from the Chinese, have recrossed the Min
d°. You have worthily defended the honor
of France. Solferino surpassed the recollec
tion of Lonato Castiglione. In twelve hours
you have repulsed the efforts of one hundred
and fifty thousand men. Your enthusiasm
did not rest there. The numerous artillery
of the enemy occupied formidable positions
for over three leagues, which you carried.—
Your country thanks you for your courage and
perseverance, and laments the fallen. We
have taken three flags, thirty cannon, and
0000 prisoners. The Sardinian army fought
with the same valor against superior forces,
and worthy is that army to march beside you.
Blood has not been shed in vain for the glory
•.)f France and the happiness of the people."
No circumstantial account of the battle has
reached Paris. It was inferred from the tel
egrams that the French army suffered so se
verely that two days after the battle it was
still unable to resume the offensive. There
were rumors of 10,000 to 12.000 French
troops having been killed and wounded.
THE AUSTRIAN OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF TUE BAT
TLE.
VIENNA, June 25.—The day before yester
day our right wing occupied Pozzolenga, Sol
ferino and Carriana, and the left wing pressed
forward as far as Quiddizzola and Cas-Ciof
frelo, but were driven back by the enemy.—
A collision took place between the two entire
armies at 10 A. M. yesterday.. Our left, un
der Gen. Wimpen, advanced as far as Chiese.
In the afternoon there was a concentrated
assault on the heroically defended town of
Solferino. Our right wing repulsed the Pied
montese, but on the other hand the order of
our centre could not be restored, and our
losses are extraordinarily heavy. The devel
opment of powerful masses of the enemy
against our left wing, and the advance of his
main body against Volta, caused our retreat,
which began late in the evening.
VIENNA, June 25.—The Austrian corres
pondence contains the following :
The day before yesterday the Austrian
army crossed the Mincio at four points, and
yesterday, came upon the superior force of
the enemy in the Chiese. After an obstinate
combat of twelve hours our army withdrew
across the Mincio. Our headquarters are
now at Villa Franca.
The London Times sass that the Austria
ans have most candidly admitted their defeat,
and that history scarcely records a bulletin
in which such a disaster is more explicitly
avowed.
• A message from Carriana announces that,
on the day of the battle, the Emperor Napo
leon was constantly in the hottest of the fire,
and that General Larrey, while in company
with him, had his horse killed. The lifoni
teur says that the battle will take the name
of the battle of Solferino.
The official Austrian Correspondence of the
27th June, contains the following : "The
Emperor of Austria will soon return to Vien
na on account of important business. The
command in chief of the army, which is pre
paring for battle, is given to Gen. Hess."
Prince Napoleon arrived at Parma, onithe
25th, and was received with enthusiasm. •
Forty thousand men were embarking in
Algeria for the Adriatic, and at Paris news
was expected of the occupation of Venice by
the French.
A dispatch from Berne says that 3000 Pied
montese, with 700 volunteers, had arrived at
"Tiramo," and advanced to Borimo, at the foot
of the Stelvio pass.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Times says it was expected that another bat
tle would be fought before the seige opera
tions would come on.
Patriotic demonstrations by the working
classes in Paris were universal.
Large reinforcements for the French army
were constantly quitting France for Italy.
A dispatch from Vienna says that the at
tack of the French on Venice and Tagliamen
to, about 45 miles northeast of Venice, was
expected to take place on the 28th of June.
The Austrian reserve, numbering 175,000
men, were on their way to Italy. They are
considered the flower of the Austrian army,
not a man of them having served less than
eight years.
The Austrians have sunk five small vessels,
a large frigate and three steamers in the port
of IValamico, to prevent the passage of the
French Squadron.

the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of LINER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishing discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to which these Bitters are applicable are so universal, that
there are but few of our friends who may not test their
virtues in their own families or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
one remedy anion; the many advertised medicines, deser
ving the public commendation. It is a fact that, in the
minds of many persons, a prejudice exists against what
are culled Patent Medicines ; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an array of tes
timony to support it as Hoofland's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in
their own tunilies. Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most eminent, take it; why should
not you t Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you are sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters.
These Bitters are prepared .and sold by Dr. C. M, Jack
son,
No. 418 Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa., and by drug
gists and storekeepers in every town and village in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, and South America,
at 75 cents per bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle.

PATENT CHAMPION SAFE.
LATE FIRE AT DUBUQUE, lOWA,
DUI3UQUA Jan. 7, 1859
Gents: a am requested by Mr. T. A. C. Cochrane, of this
place, to say to you that on the morning of the 4th inst.,
about 3 o'clock, his store took fire, and the entire stock of
goods was destroyed: The heat became so suddenly intense
that none of the goods could possibly be saved; but fortu
nately his books and papers, which were in one of your
Champion safes, were all preserved perfectly. And well
they may be called Champion, for during the whole con
flagration there was one incessant pouring of flame direct
ly upon the safe which contained them. And still, upon
opening it, the inside wasfound to be scarcely warm, while
the outside was most severely scorched. Yours truly,
N. A. McCLURE.
