The health of our city continues good. With the excep•
tion Of one or two murders, there use been nothing of
importance transpiring worthy of note.
The deputy 11. B. Marshals commenced takitig the
census on the let hut, and expect to have the whole State
- completed In sixty days. It is believed that the population
of this city will reach 200,000.
The steamer Vigo exploded her boiler on the Illinois
river a few days ago, and three or four of her crew were
severely Injured. The steamer Parkas was burnt at New
Orleans.
A destructive tire occurred at Nebraska City, which con
sumed nearly all the business portion of the city, consist.
log of 42 prominent business hoases, including the Post
Office with considerable mall matter, and the Goveinment
Land Office with all its papers; also, the Nuckalls Hotel-
The loss is estimated at $120,000, on which there were
insurance to the amount of from $70,000 to $75,000
mostly in Hartford, Coon., and St. Louis offices.
It is said that the City Treasury of Davenport, lowa,
contains just one dollar. Parties holding claims against
Davenport had bettor make a rush !
Politically, we have very little to write about. The
"Opposition"—we mean the " Americin " party, not the
Black Iteptiblicans—held what purported to be a State
Cimvetition'at Jefferson City, In this State, on the 31st nit
There were not over twenty persons present, but as this
was the fourth Convention that they have held without
making a nomination, they were determined to place a
ticket In the field against the Democracy, and atter an
hour's caucuso. fall ticket was made up, with Gen. Wilson,
for Governor. The next day, when Gen. Wilson
heard of his nomination, ho immediately declined—he
could not consent to make the race, and thus bas left the
"Opposition " .of Missouri without a candidate. What
they will now do, we cannot say, but we hope they will
not let the election of Governor go by default.
We hear no more about Mr. Lincoln; his friends here aro
satisfied that if the Democratic party are united, ho will
be worse beat than was Bon. Scott in 1852. They all say
that Lincoln Is not the man, and the Seward men in this
State—though few—are denouncing the nominations as
injurious to the cause and making a defeat certain. Whilst
the Bates' men will not touch Lincoln and Hamlin any
mare than they would Garrison or Giddings. The same
feeling exists In Illinois, lowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin end
Indiana. There is no unanimity fur the nominees, and It
is universally believed that Lincoln will be badly beaten.
We heard a Bates man offer to bet a Black Republican
$5OO thaeLincoln would not carry a county in this State
—ssoo that be would not get 8,000 votes in Missouri—ssoo
that the vote cast against Lincoln and Hamlin in this
State would not be lees than 1'20,000, and $5OO that Lin
coln would not get the electoral vote of Illinois, Indiana
and lowa—the whole to be taken. The bet has not yet
been covered
The Evening News of this city has repudiated the nomi
nationsaf Lincoln and Hamlin, and hoists the Bell and
Everett flag; the _Express also refuses to support the Black
Republican ticket, and in a short time will raise the Bell
banner. We have not seen but one paper in Missouri—
and that the Missouri Democrat—that supports Lincoln
and Hamlin, and even it feels a little sore in doing so.
There is no doubt but that the Black Republicans see the
mistake they have made In their selection at Chicago—but
it is too late to cry over "spilt milk," and they must grin
and bear R. Had they the work to do over again Lincoln
would be the hindmost Mln. He is one of the rankest
Abolili•mists in the country, and his record condemns
him. His vote against the vupplies for the army in Mexico
will do him au immense injury. Hie speech on the
equality of races will drive tens of thousands from him.
His inability and incapacity for the place will lose him a
large vote, and whilst it is universally understood that
William H. Seward is to be Secretary of State, in the
event of his election, will drive all the conservative men
of the country from his support. Ile is no more fit for
President of the United States than any one of the
Japanese. •
The Democratic party never had a better 4,hance to
achieve a victory than at the present time. ~n 1 that is
necessary , to accomplish it is union and harmony, and we
believe that the delegates to the Baltimore Convention will
have had ample time to see how the wind. is - blowing ,
before they meet on the 18th Juno. Lot them nominate a
man that will unite the party—let personal friendship and
personal jealousies be laid aside for the good and success
of the cause, and, unless they do so, they do not only sacri
fice their own first choice, but render a certain defeat to
the party. Which le best—to sacrifice a friend for the
success of the cause, or to politically ruin him as well as
the party, too. Once defeated, through such persona/
means, always defeated.
The time is drawing near when the Democratic party
will either unite and ensure a certain victory. or "split,"
and give Lincoln and Hamlin the control of this govern
ment. United, we cannot help but triumph; divided, and
defeat is evident.
We again appeal to the Pennsylvania delegation to stand
firm for John C. Breckinridge, for we believe he is one of
the men who can heal the present wounds of the Democracy.
We believe he can more thoroughly unite tho party than
any other man that could possibly be nominated. This
will not be the first time that Pennsylvania has saved the
party from defeat by uniting upon a candidate in the Con
vention; the "Old Dominion," too, is ready to fall into
line with Pennsylvania, and the entire South will prove
no laggard when Breckinridge's name is proposed, and
corning, too, as it should, from that old conservative State
of yermaylvania. All eyes are now turned to Baltimore
and to the " Keystone " State—the latter can either make
or ruin the Democratic party in that Convention—which
will site prefer?
The friends of Judge Douglas in this vicinity are still
confident of his nomination, but at the same time have
over and over again pledged themselves to the nominee.
We now think the party will unite upon the nominee,
and unless no nnforeeen difficulties arise, we will again
march on to victory.
The storm which passed over our city on Saturday night,
was still more terrific at our sister city of Alton, Ills. Tho
building occupied by the Alton Demx-rat, was totally de
stroyed, The roof of the'city hall was blown off, as was
also thiM of the Chicago, Alton and St. Louis Railroad
Depot. There were some thirty or forty buildings more or
lees damagedsome totally destroyed. The chimneys of
the steamer David Tatum, which was lying at the wharf ,
were blown off, and the boat was otherwise materially
injured. The hailiwas terrific, and the breakage of glass
formed no small Item in the general disaster. Along the
track of the railroad in the vicinity of the town trees were
everywhere prostrated, fences blown down, the telegraph
wires levelled with the earth, and streams overflowing
their banks. The down trains of the Chicago, Alton and
St. Louis road were detained some eight or ten hours in
consequence of the storm, owing to obstructions upon the
track. The passengers took lodging at the Alton House,
where they were handsomely entertained, and arrived in
this city at nine o'clock yesterday morning.
The storm must have been very severe upon the upper
river, but owing to the interruption of telegraphic com.
munication it may be some time before we ascertain the
extent of the loss occasioned. So far as we have learned
no rives were sacrificed at Alton to the fury of the storm
king. The city was all night the scone of the wildest
excitement, and at the time our informant left no one
could calculate the amount of the damage sustained.
Notwithstanding the storm was very severe here, yet we
have heard of no material damage, except the filling of
cellars 'with water, and thoroughly loathing and cleansing
the streets, which our municipal fathers would never have
done. Since our residence in this city the streets were
never so white and clean. This is unfortunate for-our
Black Republican friends, for just about this time of the
year they put hundreds of workmen to clearing the streets,
more for the purpose of obtaining their votes at the August
election, than for the comfort of the citizens. They will
now have to employ them in dipping out the Mississippi
river! But seriously speaking, the rain was a Godsend to
thepeople of this city and vicinity—rain was much needed
—the earth was really burning up, and the crops suffering
for the want of. water.
Col. Samuel Schoch, of Columbia, is now on a visit to olir
city.
HAMLIN'S RECORD
Hannibal Hamlin was a member of the
DeMOcratic Convention in 1848, which nomi
nated Lewis Cass ; in that convention he
voted against a protective tariff; in that con
vention he opposed a system of internal
_improvements ; in that convention he favored
the Mexican war ; now he professes to favor
a tariff; now he is a candidate on the same
ticket with Lincoln, who denounced the Mex
ican war as "unjust and unconstitutional."
In the Baltimore Convention of 1848, he voted
in favor of a resolution that declared "that
all the efforts of the Abolitionists, and others,
made to induce Congress to interfere with
the question of slavery, or to take incipient
steps in relation thereto, are calculated to lead
to the most alarming and dangerous conse•
quencee; and that all such efforts have an
inevitable tendency to diminish the happiness
of the people, and endanger the stability and
permanency of the Union, and ought not to
be countenanced by. any frienrof our political
institutions." •
He is now theoandidate of a party whose car
dinal doctrine is to induce Congress to interfere
with the question of slavery—a party built
up solely, and exclusively on this sectional
basis—a party which derives its sustenance
and support altogether from denouncing and
tillifying the Southern States and the insti-1
tutiops slavery.—Piasburg Post. I

The 'Housekeeper's Friend.—Spald
log's Prepared Glue.—Small conveniences for general
family use are often of more value than what are called
"great inventions." It is estimated that in the United
States there are at least five millions of households, in all
of which the' annoyance of squeaking, rickety chairs,
sofas. tables, etc., is constantly experienced, and so long as
furniture is in this condition there is always danger of a
" smash-up." The experience of the city housekeeper,
with May-day before her eyes, will readily suggest the
value and convenient of really trustworthy prepared glue,
that can be instantly brought in requisition where repairs
to furniture and other household wares are needful. The
want of such an article is as constant and universal as the
family, and hitherto it has been a want unsupplied. This,
however, can be truly said no longer. Spalding's Pre
pared Glue seems to be all that bee been desired in this
direction. It is kept soluble by chemicals, retains its
strength and tenacity, is convenient and always "up to
the sticking point," is put in a bottle with a brush, and
sold at twenty-five cents. No housekeeper in the city or
country can well afford to be without a bottle of Spald
ing's Prepared Glue. It is just the thing for the library
and schools ' where books are constantly in need of repair.

Intrinsic virtue alone could insure the success which
this article has attained. For Rheumatism, Salt Rheum,
Burns, Bruises, Stiff Joints, or °aids, Sprain, Pole Evil,
and Swellings upon Horses, it has no equal. No person
will be without it who has once tested its value. "And
with reference to the general estimation of the Mustang
Liniment, I can cheerfully say that no article ever per
formed so many cures in our neighborhood as this. L. W.
SMITH, Ridgefield, Corm" S. LEITCH, Esq., Hyde Park,
Wt., writes, " that the horse was considered worthless,
(his case was spavin,) but since the free use of the Mus
tang Liniment I have sold him for $l5O. Your Liniment
is doing wonders up here." Such testimony is reaching
us every day. The half is not told. Every family should
have it. Beware of imitations. The genuine Mustang is
sold by all respectable dealers throughout the world.

The Springs are about 2,600 feet above tide-water, and
the air is always bracing and invigorating, the thermom
eter seldom ranging above 75 0 in Summer. The head
waters of the Susquehanna and Clearfield, abound In
trout, and the mountain ranges are filled with game,
affording fine sport to those who are fond of such amuse

T HE. JAPANESE
BY TUE BARD OF TOWER HALL
Many ladles, in our city,
Have been buzzing round, like bees,
Getting ready for the welcome
To the honored Japanese.
Silks and satins, they have purchased;
Pretty bonnets, fancy veils;
Hoops and skirts, deceptive cotton,
And the bones of slaughter'd whales.
On their bureaus, chairs and tables;
On their stands, and on their beds,
There are hooks-and-eyes and ribbons,
Pins and needles, silks and threads ;
Bonnet trimmings, scarfs and mantles
Tape and bobbin, cords and braid,
And et caleras—Excuse me!
For t name them I'm afraid.
Taking up his needed linen,
Mr. Docile says: *My dear,
There Is not a single button
On this shirt I'm holding here!"
And his wife replies: "My darling,
You'll be quiet, if you plea.;
Pve been thinking, not of shirts, love;
But about the Japanese.
"You must do without the buttons;—
Won't you, now, my little man 1—
For I'm vary, very busy
With some trimmings from Japan ;
"Which, on six unfinished dresses,
I must put this very day;
For I will outshine the Stuckups,
In the mansion o'er the way."
"I will do without the buttons,"
Docile says, with accents sweet;
"But, though buttonlesa and hopeless,
Will the sous of Niphon greet,
"And, while you outshine the Stuckups,
May your teelings not be hurt
By their seeing me—your husband—
With no buttons on my shirt."
Lo! there comes a thought to Docile,—
Just the very thought he needs—
And, with feelings it awakens,
To the Tower Hall he speeds:
Where he buys a change of linen,
With some garments ala-mode:
And exclaims: "I hope the buttons
On this shirt are strongly sewed!
For if this—l sigh to say it !
Should of buttons be bereft,
I must bid farewell to buttons,
Till the Japanese have left."

WHOLESALE OYSTER ESTABLISHMENT,

The sallfior quality of Northlk Oysters is well known,
and no city in the Union possesses such advantages for
putting up Oysters as Norfolk Is favored with.
They are procured fresh from the extensive oyster
grounds in the immediate neighborhood, and are conse
quently put up in a healthy state, being spiced a few hours
after they are taken out of salt water.
These SPICED OYSTERS need only to be tried to prove
their superiority over oysters sent from other cities, where
they are often spiced in a sickly or decayed state in conse
quence of the difficulty of procuring them fresh from the
beds.

"Life of Samuel Houston. Philadelphia."
" There is no campaign in modern military history which
for its extent, although attended with such disastrous re
sults, although eventually ending in the liberty of the
Republic, than that conducted by General Samuel Hose
ton, during the years 183 E-37 in the defence of the Ameri
cans then settled upon the frontiers of Mexico. In a brief
period, with a small band of Heroes hastily raised en
masse, and illy armed and accoutred, the brilliant defence
of the Alamo, was made forever glorious by the bloody
massacre, perpetrated by the Mexicans. This unfortunate
event which showed valuable lessons and glorious illus
trations of the valor of our citizen soldiers, and of the
genius of the Great Chief and Hero, ought not to be for
gotten or hastily glanced over. It is believed that the
campaign during the Texan war hue not received full jus
tice in the narratives which were published, the numerous
merits of which were marred by serious errors. By com
paring these various versions, and by consultation with
those who played prominent parts in this event of our his
tory, it is believed that this Biography of the Texan Hero,
which is divested of cumbrous details of military techni
calities, is as faithful and exact as it is practicable to render
a narrative of this description.
The sole desire of the author has been to do full justice
to Amerttan valor and patriotism, and to present truthful
and vivid pictures of that memorable war, and of the con
duct of the Great Chief who springing from the people, a
frontier warrior, without science, art or experience in mil
itary affairs, was enabled through them:Mies of Providence,
by his stout heart, hie sagacious intellect, and ardent pa
triotism, to repel, punish and nearly destroy some of the
most mercenary soldiers that were ever sent forth by any
power on the earth. Ought each deeds be permitted to
fade from the memories of a patriotic people? No I it is a
reproach to the present generation, that there is not more
spirit exercised by our government in defending the rights
of our citizens and extending that protection to them
which has ever been sanctioned by every true son of lib
erty. Address, GEORGE G. EVANS,

FROM THE PREFACE.
- -
The Empress Josephine wee one of the most remarkable
of all the extraordinary characters who rose into conspicu
ous public positions in consequence of the French Revolu
tion. Wonderful were the events of her life. With the
kindest and most affectionate of human hearts, she milted
the sternest principles of rectitude and a comprehensive
genius.
In political foresight, her superiority to Napeleon is now
universally recognized. Had he listened to her admoni
tions, his empire might have been averted. It is worthy
of notice that this political foresight and ability has been
inherited by her descendants—two of whom, Napoleon 111.
and -Pedro 11. respectively the present Emperors of Prance
and of Brazil, are among the ablest sovereigns now reign
ing in the world.
The events of Josephine's life, and remarkable traits of
character which she displayed amidst the most amazing
vicissitudes of fortritio, afford not only an exceedingly
interesting but a highly instructive lesson to all who road
her biography. In this respect her career, taken as a
whole, may challenge comparison with that of any other
historical personages in history.
Josephinkconstantly looked to the glory of France and
the fame of her husband as the two most desirable objects.
When Napoleon desired to perpetuate his dynasty by a
second marriage which might yield him a male heir to his
throne, Josephine nobly sacrificed her own feelings to what
she was told might eventuate to the advantage of France.
In his adversity this true woman forgot all but their
happy years of wedded love—remembered not that she had
been repudiated, but that he was unfortunate.
We have freely drawn upon various authors, who have
recorded anecdotes and traits of Josephine, as related to
them, with the tender regret of affection, which, too late,
recognized her full value, by Napoleon himself, in his clos
ing years, and it is to be hoped that the book will be found
reliable RS well as entertaining. Full-of truth, yet it is the
.very Romance of Biography.

THE IMPROVEMENTS FOR 1860, are:
let. A more compact frame,—thus decreasing the width
of the machine, while increasing its strength ; at the same
time allowing a material reduction in weight.
2d. A most important item, a lighter driver and sickle;
thus permitting an increase of motion not practicable in
other machines.
The wear and tear of a reaper or mower is occasioned
mainly by the weight and motion of the sickle. The im
proved driver and sickle of the " McCormick " will weigh
hat 9% pounds, while those of other machines are from
fifty to one hundred per cent. heavier. Every pound thus
added to the sickle and driver, when in motion, is jest so
much wear and tear—not only upon the sickle itself, but
also the driver boxes, crank, and all the journals. It is a
strain upon the whole machine as well as horses.
The alight indentation and peculiar cut of the sickle,
with the combination of the spear-shaped fingers in our
machine, gives us this advantage; and it is one of para
mount importance to the farmer. As proof of what we
state, we ask purchasers to weigh the sickle and driver of
other machines. Owing to improvements for 1860, we are
enabled to increase the motion of our sickle nearly one
fifth, without danger of breaking or additional power—
hence, can do gond work even with a slow team.
_ _ . . .. . . -.....
3d. A Cantor Wheel upon an entirely new principle has
been added to the grain side of the machine, wholly roller.
ing the horses from pressure in turning, and materially
lessening side draught.
4th. A Lever-shipper for throwing in and out of gear.
sth. The machine is now so balanced, that in connection
with our patented semi-jointed tongue, the cutting appar
atus is completely and easily thrown over obstructions
while in motion, simply by the weight of the driver in his
place; thus dispensing with all levers and complicated
arrangements to effect the same object. This obviates an
objection urged against the "McCormick" as a mower,
and will be found to work perfectly, without endangering
the durability of the machine.
6th. New Finger Beam.
New Fingers. Shorter and narrower—thus more
penetrating, yet with same angle as heretofore.
Bth. The Shield to Spur Wheel is attached to the bridle,
so that in raising and lowering it moves with the bridle.
- . . .
9th. Angle Board dispensed with, and replaced by an
adjustable iron rod. 11 ,
10th. New Scraper Board attachment.
The foregoing are a part of the many changes for 1860.
The whole machine is lightened and reduced in size; yet
having an increased capacity for work. .Avi improved
Neck-Yoke and Donbletree ie also furnished with each ma
chine.

6626,
Scrofula, or s
Evil;
is a constitutional disease, a et:eruption of the
blood, by which this fluid beecimes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the cireabition, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
fram its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy: The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis.
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con
stitution, descending .1 from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation ;" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, di X
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children."
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu
tions not only iuffer • from scrofulous com
plaints, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases.; conse
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the'
system. Most of the consumption which de
cimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination ; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from at
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this: lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system wemust renovate
the blood by an alterative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such a medicine we supply in
AYER'S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
the most effectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. It is CM
bined from the most active remedies that haie
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure of
not only scrofula, but also those other affec
tions which arise from it, such as Emu Tram
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHONY'S FIRE,
ROSE, or ERYSIPELAS, PIMPLES, PUSTULES,
BLOTCHES, BLALNS and BOILS, TUMORS, TETTER
and SALT RHEUM, SCALD 'READ, RINGWORM.
RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC and MERCURIAL DIS
EASES, DROPSY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY,_ and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITT?,
TED OR IMPURE BLoon. The popular belief
in • impurity of the blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.
Ayer ' s Cathartic Pills ,

are so composed that diseaSe within the range of
their action can rarely withstand or evade them
Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse,

Not only do they cure the every-day complaints

So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu-
merous are ,the cases of its cures, that almost
every section of country abounds in persons pub
licly known, who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every
other medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, the
public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections of the
pulmonary organs that are incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and .been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits
on the afflicted they can never forget, and pro
duced cures .too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten
