stcHtner, which cnt-t antlmr nenr my ship

lull not having eiitlicit nt time to tlischtiru
thu lest, she hurl ended for Galidon, nnd
that he expected her Imek on Momliiy even
in";, when he intended to attack her. On
Monday afternoon, nfter I had embarked
the woinen nnd children, I started for
Athens; Imt two hours afterwards I heard
guns liehintl me. Goinrr on deck I saw In
the distnneu two steHtiiem, one chasing ibe
other and fighting. In a short time they
approached me, nnd I saw that one was the
ArcAtli nnd the other the Izzedin. The Izze
din reached the Alcndi nnd gnve her n broad
side, t which the Arcadi replied in the
same manner. As soon as the two steamer
were close together thu sailors began firing
with their rihVs. While the fijiit was the
hottest, two Turkish men of-war made their
appearance round the Cape of Krio nietopo.
The position of the Arcadi then became very
perilous. At that moment the captain of
the Arcadi, with great presence of mind
and coolness, turned his little steamer, faced
the tree enemy's vessels, and passed through
them at full speed, atnidit a, tremendous
lire from the large guns nnd a shower of
bullets. The Arcatli soon approached the
land, and nfter coasting some distance nlong
the small bay arrived near the Capo of Krio
inetopo, w here the captain ran her aground
in order tn save the crew. The righting
lusted till 1 o'clock in the morning. At
that time the three Turkish vessels cat an
chor near the Arcadi. I heard a sharp firing
of rifles during tlie rest of the night, nnd
stayed until morning to ascertain tlie result.
I then saw the Arcadi in flames, but I could
not learn whether she had been fired by her
captain or by the enemy. The Turkish
boats were full of wounded, who were trans
ported to the Turkish vessels, and the Izze
din steamed away in a very damaged condition."
A ittun ItoaN(CMl lis an Oil Itcliuiti;
Ktill.
The London (Ontario) Free Prea says :
In the late lire which occurred at Oil
Springs, resulting in the loss of the llartfmd
oil relinery, a man was literally baked to
(Icnth! He was, nt thu time of the tire,
cleaning out one of tlie stills. To effect this,
he had to descend into the still by a small
ladder, w hich had to be draw n up to cnii'iie
a man logo a'mut Ilia task While thus
working, by some means, through the pipe
becoming disconnected under tlie hand oi
hU fellow w'.irkman in the refinery. I lie nil
ran out, nod communicating with the rite,
the who'e mass was, in a moment, blnziuir.
The man who escaped endeavored to i-xtrt
fate his fellow workman, and siiiceedit' in
grasping bis hand, but he w as nnab M re
tain his hold through tin- hVr e flame -.viiii li
w as rapidly anrrnimdinij him. tin. I. shm

fl lilies, he eciped, nnd statidii g in the open
air, otiK- to her, in common with the as
aeinlileil ni-igltbor the hopeless crv tor he'p
which vcrv row nnd thin rang above the
roar of fliimiiii.' oil trom the fatal slib nbicli
was to prove the ttrtiMe tomb in which,
un-rathed by fltitne. a living man wn to
grapple with the death bent, as hotter and
hotter new the iron, clover and more stilling
the nttnospbere. and more intense, though
each time f.-ebh-r.the a'tempt to draw breath,
till at la-it the almost equally painful silence
told the horror stricken spectators, who
t-t'iod powerless, that all was over, and that
soon nothing but a blnrkenrd mass would
retnsin of the man who not an hour before
wa in tin- iirime of life nnd health. To add
to their ditr ss. the w ife of the riving suf-h-n-r
hurried to the scene, but onlv to hear
the lust crv that dime from that terrible
t"mb. and to be borne back again, stunned
wi'h grief, to fold utmost nnrionscionsly
w ithin her arm four little fatherless ones.
The poor man was subsequently found in an
mil ii; tit posture, leaning auninst the comer
of the still, nnd though not touched by the
fire, he was but a black, charred mass, whose
clothes crumbled away at the first touch,
only to reveal the bare, burnt skeleton of
the man Hutchinson.
How an Emperor Triiveli.
The special train In which the Einpernr
Napoleon went with his suite from Pari to
Satilzbnrg. is described as exceeding in com
fort and elegance anything of the kind that
has hitherto been known. Tlie train consis
ted nf nine carriages, communicating with
each other by tastefully decorated bridges.
In the middle was a handsome sitting room,
furnished with chairs, ottomans, sofas, mir
rors, pictures. -dorks and chandaliers. On
one side of thia room was the dinning room,
and on the other tier Empercr's study, in
the middle of the dinning room there was
A table, capable of being extended or con
traded at pleasure, with easy chairs placed
parallel to the sides of the carriage. The
Emperor'a Made contained an elegant w rit-ing-table,
a clock in the style of the renns.
siauce, a thetmnmeter, a barometer anil a
telegraph apparatus, ly means nt wimiii
telegraphic communication wa established
with the apartments or the various (Yurt
official traveling with His Majesty. Next
to the studv was the bedroom of the Em
peror and Empress, with two bed placed
trsversely against the sides of the carriage.
Two dressing rooms were) attached to the
bedroom. Tlie remaining carriages consis
ted oft kitchen, a wine cellar and the apart
ments of the Emperor'a suit. There was
also a conservatory filled with the choicest
flowers. , . ,

OR MKDITATKS AND DKSIQN8 FORCIBLE RE'
eiSTANCK TO tHB AUTHORITY or CONGRESS
OIIAVB ASSERTIONS MADE BT SENATOR
THAYKIt "ON U.NIJCKSTIUNABLK AOTUOIII
TV." We quote the following grate statements
from a speech delivered at Cincinnati Inst
Saturday evening by General Thayer, U. S.
Senator from Nebraska :
1 huve recently been In Maryland and the
District of Columbia, huving left Washing
ton only night before last. While there I
took especial pains tit inform myself in re
gard to the present, purposes of Andrew
Johnson, and I obtained w hat I am about to
Mute from reliable authority.
I decline, upon my responsibility as a Scn
ator of the United States, that to-day An
drew Johnson meditates and designs forcible
resistance to the authority of Congress. I
make the statement deliberately, having de
rived in from unquestioned and unquestion
able authority. 1 cannot point out the oc
casion on which he may attempt to use
military force. It may be to prevent the
assembling of Congress; or, when assembled,
if the House of Representatives passes arti
cles of impeachment ; or, it may be for the
purpose of forcing Southern Senators and
Representatives to seats in Congress
The question may be asked : How can be
do such a thing You recollect that six
mouths ago, Gov. Swaun, of Maryland, was
elected U. S. Senator, and that a few weeks
afterward be declined the office, giving
"grave reasons of Statu" as the cause. It
was found that Lieutenant Oovernor Cox,
of that State, could not be depended on for
Johnson's purposes.
There is to-day a standing army In Mary
land an organized militia force, such as no
other Statu in the Union has; that It is offi
cered mainly by returned rebels. When the
time comes which ho looks for, under some
pretense, Johnson may declare Maryland
and the District of Columbia under martial
law, and call upon Gov. Swann to bring
forth his militia.
There is nothing that will deter Johnson
from this t purpose except, wbn the issue
comes, that his courage may fail. I make
this statement thut the American people
may know thetlanper that threatens their
peace nnd safety. Said one of my infor
mants, "If Pennsylvania and New York give
Democratic majorities iu the comiug elec
tions it w ill embolden him to carry out bis
purpose-.'' And I hope you, the people of
Ohio, will be warned in time, and so cast
your votes as to rebuke and prevent the
mad designs of this bad man, who is now
acting President of tho United Stales.
But, gentlemen, let Die say to you that
whenever Johnson attempts force, aud orders
any soldiers he may have under his com
mands, to resist the power of Congress, bis
doom is sealed. (Great applause.) The
fate from which he has preserved the trai
tor Jefferson Davis, will then be meted out
to him. (Applause.) Aye, when that time
comes, five humlred thousand men from
Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio, will leap
to arms unit tramp the soil of Mnrylund, to
reach the beleaguered capitol and rescue it
In. in the ham's of rebels and traitors.

Pet hups a woman's weakest point is ber
pn.iiencss to follow the fashions, no matter
how absurd they are. There is not one
single nroiiment or fact that can be ad
vanced in justification of wealing dresses
tli:it tniil upon and sweep the streets. It is
not only contrary to good taste, cleanliness
nii't rifitu ment, but it is absolutely vulgar.
We t.rt, therefore, glad to find that so pop
ular a writer as Oliver Wendell Holme, has
felt it bis duty to notice this ridiculous
t'tishi iii in his usual pungent style;
"Hut confound the make believe women
we hate turned loose in our streets; where
do they come from X"t out of Boston
parlors, I tiust. Why, there isn't a beast
or a bird that would 'drag its tail through
the din in the way these creatures do their
dresses. Because a Queen or a Duchess
wears long dresses on great occasions, a
maid of all work or a fuctory girl thinks she
must make h.-rself a nuisance by trailing
through the streets, picking up and carrying
about with her bah '. that's what I Call
getting vulgarity into your bones and
m.nr.w.
"Show, over dirt, is the attribute of vul
gar people. If any man can walk behind
one of these women, and see what she rakes
up asshe goes, and not feel squeamish, he
bus got a tough stomach. I would not let
one of them into my room without serving
them as David did Saul at the cave in thu
wilderniss cutoff ber skirts.
"Don't tell me that a true lady ever sacri
fices the duty of keeping atl about her
sweet and clean, to the wish of making a
vulgar show. don't believe it of any lady.
There is something that no fashion has a
right to touch, and cleanliness is one of these
things. It is an insult to a respectable
laundress tn carry such things Into a bouse
for her to deal with.1

To the Voters of Pennsylvania Fel
low Citizen : Onco more to the rescue 1
The election is only ten days bence ; and
seldom, if ever, were more momentous Is
sues presented for your decision. The ma
jority of the judges of our Supreme Court
were elected before the recent war, and upon
partisan, Democratic, State rights, and se
cession platforms, which were free charters
for rebellion. The war itself was a legiti
mate consequence of these principles, and
in strict accordance with these State rights
doctrines. When the conflict came, tho
Judges and the other leaders of the party
which elected them stood fast by their plat
forms, sod in so doing "dederted the cause
and flag of the country. They denied the
power of the National Government to co
erce rebels, to issue paper money, or to
make it a legal tender, or to make and en
force a draft to fill up the ranks of our ar
mies, or to punish deserters by disfranchise
ment ; and in a hundred other wavs endea
vored, by State actions, to nullify national
laws; and thus, during the wbolo war,
kept up an unceasing "fire in tho rear."
These dangerous dogmas and State rights
heresies bavo been overthrown and repudi
ated upon a hundred bloody battle fields I
In the name of Henven, ask us not to restore
them, or to elect men who uphold and
maintain them !
Of the same grave cbnrocter is tho great
and overshadow ing national question of re
construction. This is the issue of the hour,
and of the contest. Who under the Consti
tution has the right to make laws and reg
ulations for States and people lately in re
bellion ? Is it the sovereign people, through
their representatives in Congress ? or the
man who accidentally fills the Presidential
chair? These impoitant questions answer
themselves. Never were living issues more
plain. You, and the other loyal people of
this nation decided them at the ballot box
only one year ago, in the election of the
Fortieth Congress, and bv a nnnular verdict
four hundred thousand 'ttrong! Why bas
not tins decree ot the people been executed,
uud become the settled law of the land t
Only because of the perfidy of A. Johnson.
Icstead of executing the laws, as required
by the Constitution, and by his oath of of
fice, he openly defines them, and endeavors
systematicolly to nullify aud defeat them.
To this end, he strikes down and endeavors
to humiliate and degrade our most honored
and beloved patriots, statesmen and heroes.
Edwin M. Stanton was a patriot, even in the
Cabinet of James Buchanan, and ever since
he bas been loyal, faithful, and true. Gen
erals Philip II. Sheridan and Daniel E.
Sickles are patriots and heroes who bnve
nobly earned the gratitude, affection and
admiration of their countrymen. The for
mer with his loyal legions, stood in the val
ley of thu Shenandoah like a wall of fire
between us anil our enemies, and saved our
State from the foot of tho invader. The
latter, in the front of battle, shed his blood
aud lost his limb at the culminating battle
of Gettysburg. As patriots and I'ennsylva
nians, can we ever forget tbem, or forgive
him who would wickedly strike them down?
Their removal and attempted humiliation is
not only a high crime antl misdemeanor,
but a wanton insult to every loyal man,
whether citizen or soldier. Let it be resen
ted, aud punished as such. Wait not for
the turdy progress of impeachment by Con
gressbut, to the polls 1
For want of facts and arguments, our ad
versaries, as usual, resort to vain boastings
of their strength, and loud assurances of
victory. Be not deceived by these stale
Chinese tactics. By false prophecies they
easily elected Lowry, Woodward, M'Clellan
and Clymer during the last five years, when,
in fact, at every recurring election they were
ingloriously defeated, and never more sig
nally than in the last contest. Rest assured,
no modern prophet can make such dry
bones live. If, in view of our solemn duties
and responsibilities, we do but half our duty,
we can increase ocr old majorities. Discard
all side issues and personal preferences; and,
as in the dark and fving hours of the war.

The Albany evening Journal of Thursday
says .-!. -
In this city, to-day, at No. 11 Park street,
died James A. McDougall, formerly Senator
of the United States from California, and iu
his time one of the most brilliant and honor
ed of the galaxy of American politicians
whose talanta gave bright promise of future
eminence and usefulness. A lew days since
one of our most respected physicians, while
visiting a -patient in the vicinity, was called
to enter the dwelling in question and see a
sick man. He did so, aud found a poor,
broken wreck of humanity, totteriug upon
the verge of tbe grave, in tbo last stages of
a dreadful disease. Despite tbe ruin, phy
sical and mental, which this unfortunate
presented, there were, at occasional mo
ments, glimmerings of intelligence wbicb
shewed that the wretched being bad been
something more than an ordinary man.
When the physician lull, he mas informed
that be bad seen what was left of Senator
McDougall. To day tbe mournful drama is
ended, and the curtain has dropped. Sena
tor McDougall was bora in this city, and
educated as lawyer, i At an early period
in tbe history of California he emigrated
thither, and soon attained a high position
by virtue of bis remarkable talents and great
energy. .
He was a member of the Legislature, and
took a prominent part io the organization
of the State. Afterward be served in the
Federal House of Representatives, with
great acceptance to his party and bis con
stituency. In 1860 be waa elected to tbe
United States Senate. Ia tbst body be took
a foremost rank. Tbe same fervid eloquence
wbicb bad mads bim lion of the masses ia
California, rendered bim powerful ia the
deliberative body ; and. some of bis speeches
will be long rememberod as maaterpiecea of
oratory. But a paasjoa for ttrong drink
proved his ban and tbe cease of bis ruin.
Loan before tbe close of bis term, be became
an object of shame to those with w hom be
wm associated, M& bU suppression woold
bsve been a msttci of course, even were bit
party im tk taceodsDt in tbe California
Legislature. Since his retirement bis only
public appears ace was at a Democratic meet
ing in New York, w liens be was shockiugiy
itfca tacitated. His subsequent steps have
been rapid sud certain towards the fatal
end. The story is one too sad to dwell up
on. Let us remember the Unfortunate only
with pity for bis sad fate.-Himself the
worst sufferer by tbu vice which destroyed
him, bis mournful death furnishes a sad
warning to others against the follies by
which he was destroyed.
Here vb Come. There was a wedding
in a church in a village near Chicago, re
cently, which was attended by a crowd of
people, tbe bride being a famous belle in tbo
section, and the bridegroom a late officer.
There is a story about him that was revived
with great effect at tho wedi'ing. lie was
in tho western frontier service, and one day
(so the story goes) be went out to bunt a
hear, lie had been away from camp a few
hours, when bis voice was beard faintly ia
the distance, exclaiming
"ii-t-r-e ue rone! '
In a little time tbe same cry was heard
again, but nearer; then it was repeated at
intervals, nearer and louder; then finally
the bold captain emerged from a bit of
woods near the camp, running at tbe top of
bis speed, without a coat, hat or gun. Ia
be came to tbe camp, shouting. "Here we
cornel"
"Here wbo comes ?" inquired a brother
officer.
"Why. me snd tbe game." irasned tbe
officer, pointing to a big bear who showed
himself at tlie- edge bf the woods, took a
look at tho camp, and then, wttb a growl at
missing his expected meal off tbe captain,
disappeared in tbe woods again, .
"But why didn't you shoot tbe bear, and
then bring bim in I" inquired one.
w iiat s tlie use in snooting your came ?
said the captain, testily, "when jou can
:nng it in alive, as I did I"
The story got home before tbe captain
did and was in everybody's mouth. The
other night, as tbe bold captain led bis in
tended bride into the church with pride and
grace so readily inspired by the occasion,
some wicked wag sang out from the gallery
"? r- we come "
Which was followed by such a shout of
laughter as tbe old church never knew
before.
Idle Daughters. It is a most painful
spectacle in families where the mother is
the drudge, to see tbe daughters elegantly
dressed, reclining at their ease, with their
drawing, their music, their fancy work, and
their reading ; beguiling themselves of tbe
lupso of hours, days and weeks, and never
dreuming of their responsibilities, but as a
necessary consequence of neglect of duty.
growing weary of useless lives, laying hold
of every newly invented stimulant to amuse
their drooping energies and blaming their
late w lien they dare not blame tbeir God for
having placed them where they are. These
individuals will often tell you with an sir
of affected compassion for who can be
lieve it real ? that poor, dear mamma is
working hcrsnlt to death. Y et no sonrerdo
you suppose that they should assist her tban
they declare she is quite in her element in
short, that she w ould never be happy if she

Killing and Drebsino Poultry. Al
most every locality bas its own system, but
I may advert to a fuw facts on this subject :
poultry when bled to death is mucb whiter
in the flesh. I should advise the following
plan, as tbe very best, causing instant death
without pain or disfigurement :
Open the beak of the fowl, tben with a
pointed and narrow kcife, make an incision
at the back of tbe roof which will divide
the vertebra and cause immediate death ;
after which hang the fowl up by the legs
till the bleeding ceases ; tben rinse tbe beak
out with vinegar and water. Fowls killed
in this manner keep longer and do not pre
sent tbe unsightly external marks ss those
killed by the ordinary system of wringing
tbe neck. When the entrails sre drawn im
mediately after death, and tbe fowl stuffed,
as they do in France with paper shavings
or short cocoa nut fibres to preseve their
shape, they will keep much longer fresh.
Some breeders cram their poultry before
killiug, to make tbem appear heavy ; this is
a most injudicious plan, as the undigested
food soon enters into fermentation, and
putrefaction takes, ss is evidenced by the
quantity of greenish, putrid-looking fowls
that are seen in the markets. Geylin't

How to Keep Potatoes. A correspond
ent of the Scientific American says tbat he
has tried the following method of keeping
potatoes for years, with complete success,
though in some instancea tbe tubers were
diseased when taken from tbe ground :
"DuBt over the floor of tbe bin witb lime,
and put in about six or seven inches of po
tatoes and dust witb lime as before. Put iu
six or seven inches of potatoes and lima
again; repeat tbe operation until all are
stored away. One bushel of lime will do
for forty busbelf of potatoes, though mora
will not hurt them the lime rather impro
ving tbe flavor tban otherwise."
Tits Msysville (Kentucky) says:
"Genersl John A. Logan is a grandson of a
brother of General Ben. Logan, of Kentucky,
one of tbe most distinguished names in the
early history of this State. The family
came to Kentucky from Pennsylvania, and
were of Irish origin. He was named after
Colonel John Allen, wbo fell at tbe battle of
the River Raisin."
