In the early part af the put week we were !kited with
heavy rains and violent storms of wind. These ralus have
extended farther North, and greatly contributed to an in,
provement ii4stavigation—the rivers have all risen, and are
now. in good stage of water, but the ice is running very
heavy, and to a considerable extent retards navigation.—
The Ohio is reported "well up," and several boats have ar
rived from that quarter, but shippers to towns on that
stream are fearful lest the ice will interfere and detain
their shipments for the winter--consequently not much
has been done, or will be, as the season has too far ad
vanced for heavy operations. The season's business may
be said to be at a clue
since Wednesday last the weather has been extremely
cold—the ponds and lakes around the city are frozen, and
the boys are indulging in that pleasant winter amusement
—skating. Navigation in theliissourl and Illinois rivers
has been suspended, as also in the Mississippi above rte.'s
-link. At this point heavy ice is running.
In local matters, nothing has transpired. Fanny %amble
arrived in this city on Saturday last, and will commence a
series of Shakespearean readings at the Mercantile Library
Hall on Tuesday evening—commencing with the "Tem
pest."
The (mite of Black llepuhlicanism aro further demon
strating themselves e v ery day. It seems that free white
men in thi'No rtfy re put themselves on a level or equal
ity with the tie negro. ; and whilst the free whiten of the
North are nosing divisions end dissentions among the
people of your latitude, the free negroes of the South play
second fiddle to their werehlppere of tho North—they both
chime to the same tune. The following dispatch welt re.
ceived here yesterday. It epeake for itself:
LOmsVnti, December 5.
HONSINIWILLE, December 3.—Our little town is up in
arms at the preaent writing. "The negroes are marching
upon us" is heard from every month. This morning sev
eral messengers arrived from Lafayette, a small town 18
miles south of Hopkinsville, calling on the citizens of this
place to come to their assistance, as they were momentari
y expecting an attack from about six hundred negroes.—
About 150 persons left immediately for the .at of war.—
They were under the command of Captains Jones and
Jackson, and Sheriff Gowan.
Ilopk.ensville is strongly mrsided. It is rumored that
we shall be attacked to-night. 1 will write you again to
morrow; would telegraph, but all communication has been
cixoff, the telegraph poles being 'cut down. ' Our whole
community was thrown into a state of intense excitement
this morning upon receipt of the following letter from La•

This servile war has been Mewing since - the Domination
of Fremont,aud preparations were daily making, In the
elicit of his defeat, to raise against their owners, and strike
a blow for Free Kansas, Free Nigger, and Fremont: The
above confirnia all that hat been said and the apprehensions
left concerning a sectional political Tarty—civil war. It
Yppears that the free negro-ex of the South hare teen elec
tioneering among the slaves in favor of Black Republican
lam, whilst the free whites of the North have been doing
the same thing among, the negro sympathizers there.—
These slave insurrections are not only confined to Ken
tucky, but there are serious apprehensions of an outbreak
in Tennessee, Missisappr, Texas and Alabama. These Slaves
have been corrupted by the fro.l negroes being allowed to
mingle with them—telling them all they had to de was to
show a disposition to become tree, and the Black Ropubli.
cans of the North would come ro their rewire. It appears
that in some nilarters,judgina from the above dispatch,
that this disposition has been made known, but, unless we
are greatly deceived In the stela! of Black Republicanism,
these negroes will have to fight for their own freedom—for
the negro sympathisers will hardly venture In the South
for such a crusade, they know too well the chivalry and
patriotism that characterises the Sonthern people, and who
stand ready in all emergencies to defend theii constitu
tional rights, either at the ballet box or before the point of
the bayonet. They will scarcely come to the rescue of
their "much oppres4ed" brethren on the Southern plants,
tations !
If these insurrections continue something nitivt be done
to prevent them, and the mode of doing this iv very simple.
It is a fact well known to all who have any knowledge of
the Slave, that he is always well treated, cared for and
abundantly supplied with all the neecioaries of life—he is
content and happy. It is also a fact well known, that the
free nogroea, when they get among the slaves, taunt them
. about slavery, misrepresent their own deplorable condi
Oen, and finally succeed in corrupting the slave—put bad
and wicked motives in his head, and encourage him to
murder and arson. The romodyils simple, and , no ether
. alternative remains to protect the slave-owner or even the
slave himself, than each slave-holding State to enact a law
prohibiting a free negro from coming to the State. This
is a law that must ultimately be enacted, or a servile war
will evidently ensue. With such a law engrafted in the
Constitutions of the Southern States, the effect would be
to drive all free negroes into the North, where they would
be convenient for Abolitionists to associate with, and they
will . be astonished at the immense number the South can
afford, and willingly afford to rid itself of. We believe there
are as many free negroes in the Slave States as there are in
the North, and It seems that this fact is known to the abo
litionists, and they will never be satisfied until the entire
body of the free blacks ertjoy the blessings of the Free North!
Our permission Is now ready—yon can have them all, and
not one white man out of a thousand will object. The en
actment of a law above suggested will be the only means
of keeping down rebellions among the negrocs of the Sonth,
and at the same time give to the Black Republicans their
own—therefore, it will prove beneficial to both.
The electors of Kentucky formally cast the 12 votes of that '
State, on Wednesday last, for James Buchanan and John
C. Breckinridge. Judge Bullock of Louisville, was chosen
to carry the vote to Washington. This is the first time
since the organization of parties that Kentucky has cast
her vote for a Democratic Candidate for President. There
has been criminal negligence of the officials of Kentucky
at the recent election. By the informality of the returns
nine counties of the State have been disfranchised—losing
a majority of nearly one thousand for Buchanan. The vote
returned shows a Democratic majority of 6,118. The num
ber of rates thrown out were—Buchanan, 3,552, Fillmore,
2,551.,. Buchanan's urinal majority in Kentucky is 7,113!
Thus, it will be seen that some 8000 voters have been dis.
franchized through the negligence of officials. In the coun
ties thrown out, the Tote returned is 6,109—in some coun
ties only the majority is given, but the entire Tote of those
Mae counties is about 8000 legal notes, all of whom had not
a voice in electing the President of the United States!
We have at last the official vote of this State. Mr. Bu.
an's majority is 9,4631 Fremont's official majority in Wis
consin Is 10,247. Buchanan's majority, (official) in North
Carolina is 18,455. The lowa Legislature met on Monday
last. The Republicans have a decided majority in both
houses, and will have things all their own way. The Con
stitutional Convention meets in that State on the third
Monday in January—it stands 72 Black Republicans and
14 Democrats. J. Davis, the newly elected "Republican"
member of Congress from lowa, was not long since a slave
owner in Missouri, and he first appered in lowa in pursuit
of runaway slaves, which he finally caught and sold, and
now he is „Fine of the Blacks himself! Oh, consistency,
thou art &jewel.
Col. Jim Lane, the notorious Kansas Bleeder," is now
in lowa, and expect.' to leave Mt. pleasant on the 20th
for Kansas.
Political speculations are all the rage in this latitude.—
: Our good people hive not yet made a Cabinet for Mr. Bu
chanan, but they are daily laboring so to do: when they
get the timber hewn out and a few of them put together,
we will-advise you. Speculations in regard to appointments
are also rife, and good and true men are now to be found
willing to tender theft- services to government even unsolic
ited. Office seekers are in a great stew—thoy are wonder
ing if Mr. Buchanan will favor the Benton or the Anti-
Benton party of this State, they are as yet uncommitted, but
if necessity requires it, they will be found on either side—
or on both aides at once, if pressed pretty hard, it is imma
terial to them—they will serve their country coming from
each! We of course know no more about who Mr. Buchan
an will appoint to office than they do, but we believe that
Mr. Buchanan will know who his friends and the friends
of the Democratic party are, and what few offices are to
be filled here, will be occupied by men fully qualified for
the position—good men and true Democrats, who have alike
supported the party and its great principles—who have
stood by the Ship of State in storm and in calm—in defeat
and in victory. We are not at all uneasy about the 4-
pointments—they will all be attended to in due season.
Tho complimentary article to Col. Benton, which appear
ed in the columns of the 4 Pennsglcanian" a few days
since, has created quite an excitement among political
leaders of this locality. Different constructions are put
upon it. Benton men, who heretofore denounced Col. For
ney, now laud him to the skies—Benton men who deserted
:Col. Benton at the last hour, and refused to listen to his
appeals to vote the Buchanan ticket, are dumbstruck or
thunderstruck, and Inquire what doe.; all this mean?
Anti-Benton leaders are alike unable to decipher the puz
zle. It is indeed very singular that an editor cannot pay
a statesman a compliment for services rendered, but that
certain men must enquire Into the motive. They are ta
king too much upon themselves, end all such inquirir
should be treated with silence, the meaning of which is un
derstood. The Leader of this city says Col. Forney Iwnot
the editor of the Pennsylvanian, whilst the Democrat claims
him as such, and the result is a newspaper discussion as to
Col. Forney's position. We say Col. Benton was entitled
to the compliment paid him by the Pcnnayivanian, wheth
er Forney is the editor or not. Col. Benton's name was
mado a powerful weapon against the Black Republicans in
the North. He spoke in behalf of Mr. Buchanan through.
out his entire tour through Missouri last summer—he came
from Washington ou the eve of the election to make a
speech to our citizens, expressly, as be said, in favor of
"Back and Brecle—he appealed to them to vote the ticket
—but they did'nt do It—they deserted him—they voted
for a Know Nothing—for Fillmore. But Col. Benton is not
to be blamed for this, he acted his part well, and deserves
the respect and esteem of all good Democrats. A large
majority of the Benton mon did not rolefor Buchanan, and
they need not take any comfort from what is said personally
of Col. Benton.

The contest relative to the right of Gen. Whitfield to his
seat In Congress, as Delegate from the Territory of Kansas,
was brought to a close on Tneedsy last, much to the dis
comfiture of Mr. Grow and those abolition sectionalists who
have acted with him against Gen. W., the lawfully elected
Delegate from Kansas. For admission to his seat, ayes 111,
against admission, nays 108. So you see, Messrs. Editors, j
from this vote against the further rule of sectionalism in
the House, the influence of that dangerous party are in
fact in a minority even in the present House of Repreaen
tatives. Thanks to the public expression of the people at
the recent State and National Elections for this happy I
change of sentiment in some of the members of the House. j
The Appropriation Bills for the payment of Pensions, and
for the support of the West Point Academy have both been
reported this week In the House. This shows commendable
industry, that is creditable to the Committee of Ways and
Means, in the House, which we hope those who come after
them will profit by in future Congresses. There never has
been a good reason for delay in Appropriation Bills not toe
ing brought forward In the early part of the session, and
the present move Is NO commendable in point of interest to
the people, that we are compelled, from a sense of justice,
to speak well of this early action of the present committee
on this greet change for the better, in their dispatch of but,
Inees for the action of the House.
The debate in the Senate as well as in the House, is con
tinned upon the propriety of printing extra copies of the
President's Message. The opposition in both houees deny
11./ they are .1 wilartuf party, but continue iu their debate
to disabuse that position. They are evidently dissatisfied
with the Preeldent for something he has said in his Mes..
sage, but contend, in their speeches, that the President iv
wrong in the character he defines for them in the position_
of the Fremont party. We shall not pretend to follow th'e
speakers in this debate. Most of the language is the saute
old abolition slang we have been accustomed to bear for
yearn back,—both Inimical to the peace and quiet of the
people, and to the permanency of the Union of these States,
the compact under the COnstitution of the U. States and
the co- equality of the States under the Constitution.
GOT. Wtt. Rioust made a vary imposing and suitable
speech on Monday last, in defence of the President, to
which Mr. CoHamar rejoined en Tuesday. Messrs. Trum
bull, Bigler and others continued the debate on the 114.11,1 e
evening. Since then Messrs. Pugh, Casa, and Hale and
others continued the debate until Thursday evening,: when
the Senate adjourned until Monday.
111 the House, the debate has been somewhat spicy. but
not at all as belligerent in tone or used so defiantly as du•
ring the lost session by the black-republican sectional
members. We hope the gal will pass off in the House in
another week, and some disposition will be shown to drop
further debate upon the Presidential issue and the slavery
question.and follow up the public business to completion.
The Southern Conve Minn, now in session at Savannah,
G.,. called for the legitimate purposes of Conunondal tm
pinvements at the Southern Ports of the Union, will be
much niarted in its progress of obtaining that desirable
consummation, by irrelevant questions of the slave trade
being revised. This is wrong in principle and impossible
in practice. While the Union lasts we ore bound by obli
gations of honor, by niost solemn treaties and enactments,
that that trade shall cease. It to, therefore, wrong' to agi
tate this question in, the South, for the simple fact, that it
will do us as a nation, no credit to revive a trade, that en
lightened nations of Europe have with ourselves pro
nounced piracy. We hope the Convention will succeed in
striking out 1.1,11 e plan of commercial improvement. so that
the whole country will be benefited by the changes pro
posed, and the slave trade left as now upon the Statute
Books.
MURDEROUS OUTRAGE.—We noticed yester
day the reported murder of a man at the
Practical Farmer's Inn, on the Philadelphia
Turnpike, near Claymont, which report has
been confirmed. It appears that two men en-
I tend the inn in Brandywine Hundred, on
1 Friday afternoon, about 3 o'clock, and called
1 for liquor, which, upon receiving, they som
plained of not being good. Mr. David Carr,
the proprietor, told them it was the best he
had, and if they did not like it, they need not
take it. One of the men then threw the bot
tle at him, and the other beat him with a
club in a brutal manner, from the effects of
which he died on Sunday last. The men also
knocked down and beat an Irishman named
Patrick Dunn, who was in the hotel at the
time. They then left and went towards Phil
' adelphia. Mr. Nicholas, one of the neighbors,
heard of the affair, and went in pursuit of
the men. He traced them along the railroad,
and was informed that they hnd got on a
freight train. He rode on and overtook the
train, and told the conductor the Circumstance,
and that he would go ahead and have an offi
cer at Chester to arrest the villains. This be
did, but only secured one of the men, the oth
er not having got on the train. The one ar
rested, named James Davis, has been commit
ted to New Castle jail. It is said that the
other villain has been arrested and lodged in
jail at Media, Delaware county, Pa. Coroner
Rickards, having heard of the matter, prompt.
ly repaired to the spat, and held an inquest
on the body. The jury rendered a verdict
of death from a blow -on the head, in
flicted by the aforesaid parties. The skull
was fractured from the forehead about six
inches towards the back and left side, causing
a fearful gash to look at. It has been sugges
ted, in view of the enormity of the outrage,
and the limited circumstances of the family,
that the Governor offer a reward for the ap
prehension of the murderer yet at large. He
is described as being about five feet ten inches
in height ; very black hair, and of stout
build ; he will probably weigh about 180
pounds ; and apparently is about 25 years of
age.—.Norili American of Wednesday.
HORRIBLEtIR.—We learn from a gentle
man of this vile, the following particulars of
the most heart-sickening incident we have
heard of in a leng time :
It appears that on Wednesday afternoon
last the family of David Bailey of Ossian had
gone away from home, and had spoken to a
daughter of Mr: Samuel Mitchell, a young la
dy of 16 or 18 years, to have her milk the
cows, and do some other little chores. Mr.
Baily kept a large dog, that he supposed to be
familiar with Miss Mitchell. She had fed
him, and wishing to use the pan he had ate
from, approached him and took hold of it.—
The dog commenced growling and she told
him to stop his noise, when he intantly sprang
at her throat. She put out her hand to ward
him off, when he seized . her arm, taking out a
piece of flesh and tearing off her sleeve. He
then seized'her other arm, all the while try
ing to get at her throat, and managed to get
her down. But she succeeded in regaining
her feet, and had the presence of mind to
work her way towards the house, the dog all
the time shaking and mangling her in a horrid
manner.
As she neared the doo'r the savage brute
succeeded in getting hold of her jaw, driving
his teeth to the bone. She at length got in,
and with her feet succeeded in partly closing
the door, the brute still hanging to her face
with devilish ferocity, only loosing his bold
when the door was shut upon him and the
flesh gave way! The poor girl sunk to the
floor from exhaustion, covered with blood, and
with nearly all her clothing torn off. Iler
face and limbs were completely mangled, hav
ing received it is said,-near one hundred and
thirty wounds on her person ! Mrs. Baily
being a h'alf a mile or more distant had her
attention called by her children to the snarl
ing of the dog, and hastened home to find him
covered with - blood, lying at the door, upon
the remnants of Miss M.'s clothes. On at
tempting to tie him up, Mrs. B. received one
or two severe wounds, but finally succeeded,
and the brutal animal was shot. The young
lady is still Jiving, but is in a dangerous con
dition.—Danville (N. Y.) Herald,
CALIFORNIA TOBACCO.-A plant of Califor
nia grown Tobacco has been exhibited in San
Francisco, which is pronounced to by judges
to be a very superior article ; it is even said
that, by suitable culture and attention, as
good tobacco can be raised in California as in
Virginia or Cuba. The leaf of this plant is
large, and of a fine soft texture, theonly defect
about it arising from the imperfect mode of
cultivating and curing it. This sample was
raised at the new town of Peralta, a place
which is rapidly growing into favor with the
public. The proprietors were giving lots to
such as would improve them, and large num
bers have availed themselves of their liberali
ty, and the place promised soon to be densely
settled. It is one of the most attractive spots
in California, being easily reached from every
quarter,
with a genial climate, and a rich soil
covered with beautiful old oaks.
OLD GUARD.
nal of Tuesday week thus speaks of the Pork
business at that point:
During the Summer contracts were made at
figures which - cannot now be obtained. The
heavy stocks of old provisions on hand in the
West, as well as the East, and the dullness of.
the European markets, which have been so
much overstocked that purchases made here
by the French Government last F.tll, for the
use of her army, have been actually returned
to find a market in this country, have thrown
a drimper on prices. Last year the 1113! kets
were almost hare of stock, with a war in Eu
rope when the season numenced ; this year
they are overstocked. Compe:itian last year
ran prices up to a high figure, and most of the
operators suffered. Experience has taught
them a lesson. Packers here, as well as at
other points, are determined nut to be allured
again in that way. The prevailing rates at
present are $5 50 ass 75 net ; the outside
price is usually paid by porkhouse owners to
secure the killing. The market is steady at
these figures, as but few have yet come in.
OREGON FREIT.-1t is claimed that Oregon
is one of the finest fruit growing countries in
the world, and that the size, quality and
quantity of apples raised here from young
trees, challenge competition. It is estimated
that not less than $75,000 worth of apples will
be shipped to California this seaon, and that
$30,000 worth were sold last year. The size
of apples is almost incredible, a bushel of
pippins haring been exhibited, whose average
weight was eighteen ounces each. It is no
uncommon thing to see specimen apples
weighing from one and a half to two pounds.
A DELICIOUS TEMPERANCE CEST.—Who
would not live in almost any place where the
young ladies are addicted to the delicious
custom which is set forth by an exchange as
follows :
"Quaker young ladies in the Maine Law
States, it is said, still continue to kiss the lips
of the young temperance men, to see if they

41G1- THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF THE AO E.,
PROFESSOR WOOD'S lIAIR RESTORATIVE.—This
preparation, although less than two years before the pub
lic, owing to its wonderful effects upon the human hair and
scalp, has already obtained a celebrity and sale perfectly
uuparallelled. It has without the ordinary appliance used
for such purposes, won its way, and been heartily welcom
ed to most of the cities and towns in the United States the
Canadas, and the West India Islands. Nor is this result
surprising, when it is remembered that its popularity is
based upon its merits, solely me established by actual tests.
That this preparation will actually RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO ITS NATURAL COLOR, produce a luxuriant growth
upon the heads of the bald, prevent the hair from falling
off, and when used as a toilet article, produce a continual
flow of the natural fluids, and thus render the hair soft,
glossy and wavy, destroy diseases of the scalp, and expel
dandruff, the certificates of distinguished gentlemen and
ladies, in every part of the country who have tried it, and
therefore speak what they know, most fully attest.
Mnsolui, Worcester CO., Mass., Nov. 13th, 1855.
Prof. 0. J. Wood—Dear Sir; I take pleasure in bearing
voluntary testimony to the magic effects of your wonderful
Hair Restorative. As far back as 1836 my hair commenced
falling off, until the top of my scalp became bald and smooth
as glass and it has continued to fall for a great many years,
notwithstandingi I have used many celebrated preparations
for its restoration. Seeing your advertisement, I was in
duced to give your article a trial, and to my utter astonish
ment, I found after a few applications that my hair became
firmly set and assumed a very glossy and beautiful appear
ance; and, by the time I had used a quart bottle full, my
balyk,,head was covered over with a young and eigrrous
groiith of hair, which is now from one to two inches in
length, and growing very fast.

Sowsrmso Woarn KNOWING I—By using Professor Wood's
Hair Restorative, gray Hair can be permanently restored to
tsorlginal color. The subjoined certificate was received from
Johnson A, Stone, Gardener, Me. and is but one of the
many instances that are daily coming to our knowledge of
Its wonderful effects. It is no longer problematic, but a
self-evident truth, as hundreds can testify.
' DAIU)INER, Me.. June 22d, 1855.
Mr. H. DYES—Dear Sir: I hare used two Wt ties of Prof.
Wood's Hair Restorative, and can truly say it is the great
est discovery of the age for restoring and changing the Hair.
Before using it I was a man of seventy.. My hair has now
attained its original color. You can recommend it to the
world without the least fear, as my case was one of the
worst kind. Yours, respedfully.

1 have used Prot. 0. J. Wood's Hair Restorative, and have
admired its wonderful effect. My hair was becoming, as I
thought, prematurely gray, but by the use of his Restora-
tive it has resumed its original color, and I have no doubt,
permanently so. SIDNEY BREESE,
En-Senator United States.
_ .
The Greatest Discovery of the Age.—lt seldom occurs,
that we notice, under any circumstances, patent medicines,
restorativet, or anything of the kind, for we hare a preju
dice against most of them. But candor compels us 1., in
vite attention to the advertisement of Prof. Wood's Hair
Restorative. We are too juvenile to require anything of
the kind, but some instances of its use have COME, to our
knowledge which almost assure us that it is a sovereign
remedy against the hair becoming prematurely gray. It is
not a `• Hair Dye;" but upon its application as directed, the
effect is produced on the skin, which brings out the origin
nal native colored hair, without stillness, and gives it a glos•
syand natural appearance. We have seen persons who have
used it, and they are much pleased with it. —Missouri Re
