larThe Spring elections in Peansyl•
vania resulted in large gains for the Dem
oorats—indicating a fair majority against
shoddy. A similar result is observed in
other of the central states. Even in
Rhode Island, the Lincoln party, by aid of
picked soldiers, only carried the State by
a hundred majority. The skies brighten;
and we question _whether Linooln ac C 0.,,
can perpetrate frauds enough to save
themselves next November.
far Three years-ago Mr. Lincoln did
not expect to save the Union by war;
end by his instructions, his Secretary of
State, William H. Seward, in his letter of
April 11, 1861, to Mr. Adams, our Minis
ter to England, said :
" For these reasons the President would
not be disposed to reject a cardinal doc
trine of theirs (the rebels) namely ; that
the federal government could not reduce
the seceding states t 6 obedience by con
quest, even though he were disposed to
question that proposition. Bat in fact
the President accepts it as true.
tam has now become the settled doc
trine with Lincoln's adherent; that a man
who conscientiously obeys the Constitu
tion, is therefore ”disloyal.” Judge -Col
lamer of Vermentran old Senator and a
devoted Republican, speaking in the Sen
ate recently of the greenback bubble; used
these words:
"I do not wish to
.oecupy the time o
the Senate by making any remarks about
the Constitution of the United States. I
think it a subject tdinost of DERISION
mats; with many gentlemen (Senators)it
is an object of derision! As it is so in a
great measure, and AS A MAN IS SNEERED
AT FOR MENTIONING THE CO. mu vrION,
and if be has a decent respect for it and
for his own oath, he is called a " timid"
man, I do not wish to take up much of the
attention of a body where such a subject
is treated in such a manner."
The men who habitually sneer at our
constitution and reject it as a guide for
thr
tin- ou'r . constatiticnal form
of government, and they will do it' unless
the people overthrow them, finally. Shall
we perpetuate Lincoln & Co., or the
Government? One must go down
.; which
shall it be? Answer at thopolls. •
The BietropoUtan.lidr.
The Metropolitan Fair closed on the
third week, Saturday, the receipts being
over a million dollars. Quite an interest
was manifested in the sword vote, which
allowed any one paying a dollar to direct
what general' should receive an elegant
sword. By a special arrangement motes,
could be polled a person equal to the
number of dollars he might pay, and one
min thus voted ten thousand times for
Gen. Grant. _At 3 o'clock on the last day
McClellan had 11,999; toGrant 9,647, w ,
ste, of numerous heavy votes for Grant.
The public voting was, then stopped, con—
trary to the original arrangement, and a
secret ballot to be announced .hyrO cum

march was at once begun, overland, for
Vieksburg. This march will be across the
upper part, of Louisiana. We have as yet.
no news of the abandonment,of Naehito
ches. Our intelligence is not later than
the 15th; There can be no doubt, howev
er, that the expedition is given up.
The, confederates have captured Ply
mouth, in North Carolina. The ram
guarded the month of Roanoke river and
prevented any aid from getting in, while
the laud forces assaulted the town and
carried it by storm. The surrender took
place on Wednesday last, and Brigadier
General Wessels and sixteen hundred
troops were taken prisoners. The garri
son nambered twenty-five hundred, and
we judge the loss in' killed and wounded
must hare - been very severe. Twenty-five
cannon were also captured. The confed
erate loss 'as reported by southern des
patches was three hundred. The capture
of Plymouth makes the rear of Norfolk
very insecure, and by opening the Roan
- okexiver yrill necessitate alarge addition
to, the blockading squadron in that quar
ter. The ram also will require the
presence of the strongest iron-clads. New
bern is now the only federal postin North
Carolina. Being very near the seaboard,
and king now . isolated and threatened by
the enemy, we may safely state that fed
eral of in North Carolina are in a very
precarious condition.
News from the Red river is to the ef
fect that the rebels were reported- march
ing on Grand Ecore on the 22d, and that
our troops were going ont to meet them.
The losses in the late battles foot up over
four thousand. Gen. Banks is believed to
be safely entrenched at Grand Ecore.
The rebel ram Roanoke, which assisted
in the capture of Plymouth, North Caro
lina,• was somewhat injured in the fight,
but; as am% as she is repaired it is report
ed that the enemy will attempt the cap
titre of all the towns in North Carolina
now held by our forces. It is stated that
the recent disasters in North Carolina are
attributable to the course pursued by
Butler, in withdrawing troops , from that
state and making theidepartment• depen
dent entirely upon him. It is stated that
Butler • has permitted' himself to be de
ceived by a false spy, , in relation to the
rebeLrams in North Carolina waters, and
that bsjimigOrtitotbsainvealacwicraf

These varieties - have the advantage that.
they do not spread by suckers like the
ordinary raspberries. They are perfectly
hardy. The plants may be set in any good
soil early in Spring. Three feet in rows
six feet apart, will be a good distance ; this
will allow room to,use the cultivator be
tween the rows.
.Tbe plants tbe'second
spring are trimmed by cutting the tops
back to abent 2 1-2 feet, and iu June the
1 new canes which have shot up are clipped
when the reach the some height. At each
spring's pruning, the wood which has
borne the year before is cut out, and any
branches that are in the way of cultiva
tion removed. The plants are propagated
by layering the ends -of the pendent.
branches in September or as soon as their
tips become firm. The ends of the branch
es -are inserted perpendicularly in the
ground just deep , enough to secure them
from being blown 'out. In this position
the layers will root and be ready for re
moval next spring.—American
