• We mite early an Wednesday
.morning, but we have nuflicient re
,tu.rns to show' that the county has
',given the entire Reolblican ticket a
- handsome majority. Whipple and
- .Graves will hate about 200 majority,
',and Souther about 250. We are sat
isfied. The men who have been in
sulting our people - for the past year
and -a . half, are rebuked. Freedom
Las triumphed, and our citizens have
hurled from them the pre-slavery
leaders who sought to lead 'them
astray.
The following is a record of last
?fight's news: Tuesday evening, Oct.
9th, the returns begin to come it, ten
minutes past seven. Eulalia gives
g majority for Souther. Well done,
Eulalia ! If the other towns come_ in
as well we shall have handsome ma
jolity in the county. Twenty minutes
past seven, Coudersport 38 majority
fur Nicholson for Canal Commission
er. Hurra fur Coudersport ! Let a
few more of our best men be thor
oughly slandeted, and hunkerism will

majority in the Bort,' and . -i in Eulalia
tot,uship. That will do. Quarter to
ten, Homer comes in with 14 major

noble. The Republicans ut that town

Quarter past ten. Here comes Julius
with the returns from Hebron, 50
majority for Nicholson, and about the
same for the rest of the ticket.. tilo

We honor thy hardy, intelligent, and
,ever reliable sons. Wednesday morn

comes a messenger from Ulysses ; Si
majority for Whipple, the other part
of the ticket about the same. Nobly

bushels of buckwheat from one

c r-P'• „. We publish on the outside an
extiact from one of Horace Greeley's
agricultural addresses. It is an able
document, and shotild be thoroughly
read.
Mr'Society has been steadily
proving in this village for many years,
and were it not fur a few industrious
slanderers and tattlers, we know of
•nu village of its size more attractive
as a plac'e of residence for the refined
.and virtuous.
Good fresh butter is selling for
ta t renty cents per pound in this Tillage.
°lir farmers take a note of this,
and increase their dairy ' business ?
hers is no surer way to coin money
than to make butter end cheese, and

article, every word of it. By the way,
the Progressire Farmer is• published

liar A - good many thousand dollars
have been lost to the farmers of Potter
county the :,past season, for %Vint 'of
sheep enonzli to eat up the briOts and
grass that - wasted in old ehoppings
not ye - i brought under cultivation.
12e The buckwheat crop of this
county, is immense. We hope our
friends in the - different townships.will
furnish us with the amount rgise4 in
their respective neighborhoods; and
of the best yields per acre. • ' .
fa' This is a favorable time to in
crease the circulation of the Journal,
and the !:ontintied sickness of Mr.
Avery justifies us in making an earnest
appeal to our friends fur aid. We
have no time to canvass for subscri
bers, and niust rely entirely on the
kindness of friends to increase our
list.
Ur' A friend has furnished us with
a.-copy of the Telegraph published at
Newtown liillage,Tioga county, N. Y.,
Nov. 28, 1815. It is a tour column
sheet containing about a tifth as much
reading matter. as the Journal, and
published at two dollars per annum,
*one-half in advance.
What was then Newtown village is
now .11;linira, large enough fur a city.
There is little of interest in the num
ber of the Telegraph. before us, but
the following in relation to " Caucus
Nominations," is worthy of repetition
at this time:
Main• of the Republican editors express
opinions favorid4te to nominations by mem
bers of Congress. The measure is uccessa
ty, say they, to prevent division of Rcpubii
can votes; and it is open to examination by
the people, before and al.tir it is hustle.
Experience hats re:uoved doubts on 1114
subject, by demonstrating that public opinion
has less influence ou caucus nutntnatious than
caucus nomination's mt pulnic opinion. The
runner (thus is caucus nominations) has di
rected ine latter ever :mice Mr. Jefferson's
renrezpent.
In 180 the party of jefferi.on called
itself Republican, but even then caucus
nominations controlled public opinion.
We hope the Republicans of this day
will fake warning, from the errors of
the past---,take care that public opin
ion controls not only the nominations,
but the elections.
Pleasiare4 of Planting
Where shall we find so pleasing. an appre
ciation of the pleasures that attest the lover
of of a garden. as in the following extract of a
letter trom the venerable Dr. Fothergill : -
" Planting and gardening supply a hind of
entertainment the most lasting and reasonable
of any occupation in this life, pleasures not tt
be purchased. The trees which we ourselves
have planted; the "fruits we' ha . ve raised, the
Plains• we have cultivated, seem to be like
our children, a kind of new creation. - Their
shade, their taste, their fragrance, and their
beauties, affect us with a richer repast than
any other. %Vhat a pleasing scene lies open
to a young man of fortune devoted to such
amusements. Eat h succeeding year produces
new shades, other fruits, fresh beauties, and
brings, besides, more profit. To belnitd the
rising groves, barrenness made fertile, our
'coun.ry improved, ourselves made useful and
happy, and pos:eril enriched ! I have seldynt
known a man possessed of a taste lity<uch
pleasures, who was not at the same time tem
perate and
svirmous.—Derticatturis.t.,
1
These are pleasures which the poor
est and huMb.lest may easily enjoy.
In this country where land is so cheap,
every body may own a small La on
which trees may be planted, fruit
grown, and a home beautified ; and
whoever is the posses,sor of a few
acres of land in this county, on which
he has planted trees, we think, will.
stay where he is if wise. •

'e Stone WI Potato
Last spring we mentioned having received
a sample of the Stone IEII potato from sir.
1). A: Bulkley, a professional gardener of
Williamstown, 3.lassachusetts, WIN obtained
this variety front the seed, and named it after
his place; the Stone Bill Fares. We have
been very successfid in its cultivation. We
planted it close beside the Mercer potato, and
Lind it much superior to that both in size, in
productiveness, and the healthfultiess of the
plant. The yield, so far as we were able to
estimate, was at the rate of about two hundred
bushels to the acre, which is' a large one fur
Long Island. The Mercers contiguous to it
are slightly affected With the Potato disease,
but in the Stone hill potatoes are no lIICIPS of
the disease Whatever. Tha tubers are large,
o f a roundi s h shape, white-skinned and white
within, and Mealy when boiled. They have
this..pecuh6rity, that if flog before they have
attained their proper size, they are not, like
most new potatoes, of a waxy consistence, but
are farinaceous, and apt to break open in
boiling as it' quite mature. The Stone Hill
potato we regard as a very important addition
to the stock of good potatoes, superior in sev
erai.respects to. any commonly cultivated in
this region.—Ere. Post.
We hope some of our enterprising
farnaers will act on the above . informa
tion. The Post is entirely reliable in
its statements, and the above is vain:
blo information.
HENRI' WARD BrAnuanisst.—This clergy
mannrecently preached a sermon against old
school Ca!violists'', in which he said he wished
it fully understood by his people, that he
served them nofas the minister of a sect, but
of the truth. "I am not," be declared, "a
Calvinist, an Arnienian, a Universalist, a
Unitarian; a Pelagian, nor a Swedenborgian
but I am simply Henry Ward Beecher, a
Jesusof the Gospel, belieierin the Lord
Jesus Christ; and trying to make other people
beliern in bias—that is all!"
rEe4icamFau. or notir BANE
Seldom has there been a judical.
outrage equal to that perpetrated by
Judge Kane. By wantonly thrusting
an innocent rnan into prison, he has
invaded the liberty of every. citizen.
No man is safe where . such abuses are
practiced. It. may -be a matter 'of
doubt whether the wrong in this and
•other similar cases, which have given
to his honor an unenviable notoriety,
is the result of sheer ignorance or of
moral obliquity. Charity inclines to
the former view, and thus leaves us in
possession of whatever comfort can
arise from the reflection that irpbecil
ty, rather than knavery, has caused
the evil. But, in either case, the mis
chief is the same-,,people may as well .
die by malignity as by fully. In
.either case, there is 'no . remedy but
removal from office. We, therefore,
heartily agree with those journals
vhich demand the impeachment of a
judge, who has so repeatedly and
'Shamelessly prostituted his high office
to the slave power. The lUdepend
vzt of last week has the following:
"An act of tyranny, unprecedent
ed in the histi.wy of our country, has
been perpetrated by a judge of the
federal .court, and remains unre- .
dressed. An unoffending citizen who'
-stated the exact truth in his return to
a writ of the court, is imprisoned for
contempt,-and must lie in jail at, the
will of the Jeffreys who has thrust
him in. The attempt to deliver the
prisoner by a writ of habeas corpus
from the Supreme Court of the'State,
has railed, and there remains but one
method of red! ess,
" Judge Kane has abused hi; pre
rogative,and usurped the functions of
an absolute sovereign. He- deserves,
therefore, to be impeached by the su 7
preme power from which he,holds his
bfEct. . Let petitions be poured in up,
on the House of Representatives for
the impeachment of Judge Kane.—
This, if carried, will lead to a .trial by
the Senate, and if that should not re-
Solt in conviction, the exposure and
disgrace will be more than any roan
can endure. Like his great ancestor,
this destroyer of the innocent, outlaw
ed-from society, will wander up and
down the earth, crying. " My punish
ment is greater than I c•c•: bear." Let
every city, town, and village, move fbr
the impeachment of the modern Jeff
reys.'.'
The following is a good form of
petition :

Tboughte from Charming
Government resembles the wall which sur
rounds one's land, a needful protection, but
rearitg no harvests, ripening no fruits. Ii is
the individual who must choose whether the
enclosure shall he paradise or a waste. Pow
little positive good can government confer!
It does not till our fleas, build our houses,
weave the ties which bind us to our 'families,
give disinterestedness to the heart, or energy
to the intellect and will. All our great - inter
esti are left to .ourse:ve., and gore rninents,
when they have obstructed them much more
than advanced them. For example they have
tat cn religion into their keeping only to dis
figure it. So education in their hands, has
become a propaga or of servile Maxims, and
an upholder of antiquwed errors. In like
manner, they have parelii;ed trade by their
nursing care, and multiplied porerty by their
expedients for its relief: Government. has al
most always been u harrier against. _which in
tellect has had to struggle. and society ltts
made its chiefprogress by . the minds of private
individuals, who have outstripped their rulers,
and gradually 'chained them into truth and
wisdom.
When l compare the clamorous preaching
and passionate declamation common in the
Christian worldlivith the composed dignity,
the deliberate wisdom, the. freedom from all
extravagance, which
.characterized Jesus, I
can imagine no greater contrast, and lam
'sore that the fiery zealot is no reprmatative
of Christianity.

Passmore Williamson is still in
MoyaMensinff prison. He has violat
ed' no law ; he has been couvidted of
no crime; lie is not even awaiting a
trial. Ho simply performed an act
of humanity, in Jetting a poor black
woman, who had been heldas a slave,
know that, brought within the limits
of a free State, she was thenceforth a
free woman, owner of herself and
her children. And she, desiring above
all things to be a free woman, and
reasonably distrusting her former
master's word that he would give her
her freedom if she would remain with
hire, preferred to .make her liberty
Sure, by taking her rights and her
children, and going her way.
Her former mast,er, to get back his
slaves, appeals to the Judge of the
United States Court, who grants a
habeas corpus, perverting that writ et'
liberty into an Instrument orslavery,
and requires Mr. Williamson to pro
duce before him the 'bodies of Jane
Johnson and her . children.
liamson rem ns an answer that they
are not and never have been in his
possession, and that ho knows nut
where they are. This was the simple
truth. The United States Attorney
chooses to declare it a falsehood, - and
moves the court that NIA-- Williamson
be committed for perjury and fur con:
tempt.
J udgeKane, after deliberation, con
strues the true statement to be.a legal
falsehood, and a defiance of the court,
„„-
grants the motion, and commits Air.
Williamson to prison for contempt,
"without bail or mainprize." Had
he committed him for perjury, he
Might have had a trial ; as it is ho
can have none; the judge is jury too,
and desput—,-sentences and condemns
to an imprisonment without limit and
without relief. Without limit, save
as he may choose to use his clemency;
without relief, save by unmanly sub
mission and dishonest -retraction, on
the part of the prisoner.
He cannot "purge himself from con
tempt" so lone. as be keeps an honest
man's contempt fir perjury. And so,
for the simple acts of humanity - and
truth-telling,- Mr. Williamson is im
prisoned durit , the will and at tire
mercy of one man, fir simply plead
ing not -guilty co a charge made by a
slaveholder.
But surely - there must be some
remedy. Surely there must be some
power in free, civilized PennsyWania
which can ince& re to arrest such
tyranny, tvud right such wrong. The
.State courts will protect the citizens
of the State: yes, qVt3ll against actor;
treys, and judges, and ministers of the
United States, The appeal is made
to them. From his prison Passmore
Williamson reaches out his hand and
asks for justice. It is refused.
- The Stiprerno Bench (with a noble
exception, that of Judge KWox,) de
clares that it will not interfere. The
question of contempt is a delicate
question ; it is the duty of the court
to discourage all such contests with
the legal tribunals of the country; Mr.
Williamson "carries the key of his
prison in his own pocket ; be can come
out when he will conform and make
terms with the court that scat him
there.
So the State courts- will not inter
pose. There remains no remAy but
impeachment. Meanwhile William
son lies in MoYamensing prison, and
Kane is his brother's keeper.
So, in this our day - and land, is
" judgment—turned away backward,"
We "look for justice, aad i lo, oppres
sion; for righteousness, butbAold, a
cry !" And this is our slavery. . What
a spectacle before God, and a world
looking. to us fir the. noble instance
of liberty ! In free and republican
American, a minister of the govern
ment proceeds to represent us abroad
with slaves in his train.
• On the way, a countryman of Penn
and Franklin accosts them, not to see
them free, out simply to tell them that
they are already legally so. For this,
though a constructive charge, a govern
ment judge imprisons him. And there
is no remedy except through impeach
ment of that judge before a republi
can- senate, half of whose members
are slave-holders!
How fast slavery is ultimating itself,
and. showing in unmistakable fruits
what its genuine spirit-of tyranny is!
We hope we shall hear no more of
"slavery's being wrong in the ab
stract," so, fast it embodies itself in
ever new .and more hideous shapes.
The cancer cannot be hidden. Will
men begin to boast of its beauty ? ZVe
hope we shall hear no more of slavery's
being •'a thing with which we here at
the North have nothing to do." It
has overleaped .the borders.
It stands in northern Boston, and
with hs gaunt bands puts chains
around the Court House, arid on the
limbs of the black man, and hurries
him through a hedge of bayonets, each
red with the blood of Liberty, subsidi
zing government ships and: government
gold to accomplish its victory.
In Northern Kansas, armed with re,
volver and bowie-knife, it invades the
polls and tramples upon the franchise;
shakes its insulting 'fist with oaths and
threats, in the face of freemen ; defies
and ejects governors; and, seated in
the legislative halls, issues laws punish
ing free speech with imprisonment,
and humanity with death.
And now, in Northern Pennsylvania,
it mounts the bencln and binds the
judges' hands,anilseats
it turns the key of Passmoro William-
Son's prison and stands guard at the
dour. tl.ad the North has nothing to
do with it ! Nothing, but to submit.

FARMERS EDUCATE YOUR SONS
"Even I, the descondant.of a poor
line of cultivators, stretching back,
very likely, to him who through his
own blindness and fatuity lost the sit,
nation of head-gardener in Eden—
even I feel the all-prevailing impulse
towards improvernant and refinan. I
can never be a scientific farmer—l am
too old and too heavily laden with
duties and cares for that—but my sun,
Übe lives,.shall be. The little I can
teach him shall at *least inspire him,
with a craving for more, and set him
on the right track to learn it.
If any ram in the community may
be presumed to - understand fully, and
to be imbued thoroughly with the
progressive spirit . of the age, that
man is. Horace Greeley. With his
peculiar political and social views And
feelings, we have nothing to do ; but
with the noble, energetic spirit he has
ever displayed, and with the immense
influence he has for years wielded
with such prodigious effect, every
thing. The cmtraet which we give.
above is strictly characteriskie of the
man, and embodies sentiments which
we should like'to believe pervade the
breaA of every farmer. in the land.
It is useless to attempt a concealment
of the great fact, that tho' spirit of
progress has laid her hand upon at-,
most every tiller of the soil, and that
slowly, be. certainly, the slumbering
spirit of the - giant agriculture is awak
ing to a con.4cieusness of its own im
mense importance. ate by one the
old fashioned prejudices of by-goec,
days are thrown aside, and those wh o
a few years since indignantly discard
ed the idea of making a..siirgle step in
advance of daddy's plan of firming,''
are either conforming in full to the
onward Inovements of the age, or
gradually 'adopting improved imple
ments, seeds, and method; of tillage..
Rut there mire very many, who like
HoraceCireeley, "feel the all-pet vad
ing impulse towards improvement,"
but who are too old and too heavily
laden with cares and business dutio;
to devote themselves to scientific
farming. To such we say, educate'
your sous, and caucate th sun with
special reference to tha profession
which you intend they shall pursue
in after life. Do not Le afraid that
in filling their minds with the gre
-truths of science
. you unfit them for
the physical &flies of life. The mans
who tills the earth understandineiy—
who is acquainted with tho character .
of the, soil he cultivates—the m mares
he applies -L-the seed -he sows, and -
the harvest he gathers—.rely such a
man's daily toil is materially lessened
by the fact that every department of
it is conducted intelligently. Every
plant anti leaf and blossom is to him
a subject of the deepest interest, be
cause a thorough knowledge of each,
so Jar from unfitting him for his work,
only enables him to prosecute it il•tre
easily and more economically. Where
the farmer doggedly" attribMe4 his
want of suedes; to the weather, or to
Providenco, the educated man, know
ing that nature is rarely in the wrung,
investigates the cause of the fitiluri,
and generally succeeds in tracing . it
to its proper source. " Forewarned,
forearmed." is a trite but a truthful
adage. I'he educated man provides
against a recurrence of the fdlare,
while the ignorant one, without either
the ability or inclination to search out
the reasons why he failed in a particu
lar direction, " trusts to luck," and
succeeds no better than at first.
Ye that me skeptical in regard to
progressive farming, look around you•
for a single mornent, and if the
snows of forty winters have fallen up
on you, g,) back twenty years only,
and compare the farming of that day
with the farming of the present day,
Look at the farms which in the period
of twenty years have been improved
most, and our word for it, they were
those, the cultiVators of which were,
if not highly educated men, at least
those who did not condenin book farm
ing as a humbug. They were men,
who if they had not, as the' farmers of
the present day have, access to reli
able agricultural information in the
form of periodicals without , number,
and newspapers at mere nominal
prices, were possessed of an indomi
table spirit of inquiry and energy—
the men, in fact, to whom.we are most
.largely indebted for the facilities the
present generation of farmers enjoy
fur cultivating the soil intelligently,
pleasantly and profitably.
A good name bi above rubies, hnt 'good

• THE Sit'S HAS Hen FLAME.--TIM
lessor. Henry, before the American
Association of Science, gave odd . re
sults touching the existence -of red
flames on the edge of the sun, as ob.
served during solar eclipses. These.
projectionsof red ilarne were ob
served again in nay.. A blackboard
representation of them was given
a circle with cloven tongues of tire.
Daring eclipses, it appears, remark
able appearances of these flames have
been obsttved since - the year 1533;
when Alexander and Henry were
astronomers together . at Princeton.
One used a yellow glass, the other a
red, It was found that these flames,
could only lie observed through . the
red glass. To to t this, :last spring
when the big eclipse happened, Mr.
I lenry experimented 'at Washington,

are usually in the light-house service,
and concentrated the L ays of the Nuts .

pink color. A range of difierent

through none of them, yellow, green,
nor anything else but red. could the
flame be seen. Mr. Henry called in

till the red e,lass came. A candle was
taken ill), and it wa;•iuvisihle through
