FROM THli PkOFLB. dab Chases a Thousand. - That is, down in Ole Virginia. The Southern gales 1 itely brought to ourlears the clang of re sounding arms. The “nursery” of strong com plected pussons seems to be slightly' confused. “Doleful rumor and sad presage” coaic up from the terrified i\ P. V's. All owing to the fact that a few strangers, sojourners, are discovered in their niid-t, hot haying on “the wedding garment.” A gray-headed old man, with a ba ker's dozen of followers, objects to the prevailing customs. Such conduct irks the “overseers” of tbo “nursery” exceedingly. Fear cotneth upon them. How to escape from the toils, the hateful notions and practices of the new-comers much cserciscth their minds. They go to and fro seeking tor assistance in this their time of calamity, down this bold audacious irtuption (fur so it seemed tolthc wondering eyes of “Ver ginia never tire”) how the volunteers flock to thn standard of the' affrighted “chivalry.'”— Maryland testifies henmeighborly good will-by putting her sons in tnartial jackets; the great Chief at Washington, who presides over the destinies of as all, sends forward his boys, shooting- irons in hand; and foremost of all, with terrible mien and large help, advances Uov. Wise, the testy, with ‘'Dominion in his nod, And, thunderbolts excepted, quite a god.” All having assembled in hot haste, and being marshalled in battle array, they tighten up their valor to the desperate work, and look about if perchance they may espy the enemy. The while the opposition, six or seven of Ethi opian extraction and two times as many pale faces, bavo no thought of so vast preparation and march of numbers being on foot against them. The Allies arc about to triumph. The wits of the Old Dominion are presently coming back which, on the first alarm, had “Altogether gone a devious course.” Anon the adverse forces met—in numbers, com plexion, and military of “vio lentest contrariety,” Ajfaint rattle of musketry, come flourishing of swords, also confusion, and —the smoke of battle clears away. The Wise party have the field—and the Gov. safely makes fust in the stocks the survivors of the officious meddler. The valiant defenders of the “insti tution” go home. A little spark has been put out with oh ! what hogsheads of water. That's a tolerable picture of what recently has been enacted at Harper's Ferry—so scared Virginia, and raised such volumes of smoke. Comment unnecessary. Brown and his corpo ral's guard put in uproar the whole South. To be sure it wasn’t very clever in him, by run ning off the men, whose faces, like the face of Egypt in the olden time, are covered with dark ness, to **lnvade and bring to dust The pillars of support in which they trust." lint on the other hand it is a bad symptom for a whole community so easily to loose its com posure. It argues something .wrong in the make of the craft they sail in. That it is high time they throw overboard the dark plank of slavery, well assured that “A blot will be still a blot, in spite Of all that grave apologists may write.*’ Letter from Kansas. Official role j-“-ikt/i6is—Gross Frauds hy the Democracy—Centennial Anniversary of Schil ler, Ac., d'-e. Atchison, Kansas, Nov. 11, 1859. K-.-itor di Agitator; The official vote on the ff;andolt Constitution foots'up at 13,951, which shows a clear majority of 4,891. When it is taken into consideration that no returns were received from eleven counties, it is a safe calculation to estimate the majority for the Constitution at considerable over 5,000. Last Tuesday the election came off for Dele gate to Congress and County officers, and ae a matter of course gross frauds were again per petrated by the Democracy in Atchison. In the second ward in this city no less than 100 illegal votes were cast by residents of Missouri and people of this place whose names did not appear on the Registry. The judges of that ward all being pro-slavery, every man that came to the polls was permitted to vote without any regard to the Registry. They gave a Dem ocratic majority of 160, which is considerable, more than the number of voters in that ward, notwithstanding full one half of them are Re publicans. The notorious Dr. and Gen. String fellow and Col. Abell, three of the meanest men that ever disgraced the soil of Kansas, were around as usual, to vote. Kot one of their families reside in the Territory, yet all of them come around at every important election and claim a vote. I Several fights occurred during tho day and night but no one was dangerously hurt. A foreigner (who keeps a low hell-hole) was figur ing pretty conspicuously around the polls for the Democrats and got stabbed several times with a bpwie knife. Liquor .all day was as free as water, and the Democracy on any such occa sion can carry anything. Lawrence gives a majority of 487 for Parrott, Leavenworth City a majority of 400 for John ston, IVyandutt City 27, and Doniphan City 00. Doniphan County elects Republican Sheriff and Senator, and probably the whole Republican ticket. ' , The centennial anniversary of Schiller was celebrated in this city last night by the Ger mans, at Ilolthans & Bros. Hall. A grand ball was given aud “lager” was in great demand. Two rowdies attempted to force their way into the hall and wjs fired into by the door keeper, tho ball glancing and taking a young man in the shoulder, and it is very doubtful whether he a ill over recover. Several shots were fired hy other parties in tho course of the evening ’hut nu one was hurt. M_y old friend IVm, M. Butler arrived here from Blossburg last Saturday, by the steamboat "Black Hawk," and intends Ito remain some time in this place. p. A. R. The >1 vdm.vn Brown — lt was the very gen eral belief of those who knew him in)Kansas, that Brown, after the death of his son, became insane upon this subject ; and his proceedings in tliis affair certainly gave countenance to the belief. A wilder and more hopeless project than that in which he embarked cannot well bg imagined. It seems to have been the work of a single man-smarting under a sense of personal wrong, and insanely seeking to avenge them upon a whole community.

Tbe honor and integrity, as well as the per petuity of the great State of Virginia Have once more bcendhreatened. The people of Charles town and of Harper's Ferry have been thrown once more into spasms of terror; once more have the shiverlry shivered, and the clang of arms and the braying of trumpets or something else, have disturbed the usual quiet of that mother of Presidents! Another invasion? Not at all. There is no other John Brown brave enough to go to his doom in this way. No. The cause of this new consternation in “Old Virginia” is a horse of another color. Virginia shakes, but no new John Brown docs the shaking. On Thursday night last, a stack of wheat on a farm about three miles from Charlestown, Va., was burned either by accident or design. This, gentle reader, as the novelists say, is the whole story. No ; not the whole story for thd funniest part of it is yet to be told. The au thorities of the place telegraphed at once to the President of these United States and the Governor of the Great State of Virginia to send troops and munitions of war to the locality of the burning wheat stack. Gov. "Wise, the val orouli and valiant champion of “the honor of Virginia,” marched at once at the head of five hundred armed men. Arrived at the scene of proposed carnage, these valorous warriors were 1 in the sad predicament of having nothing to kill. There was no enemy on hand. The wheat-stack which had probably been set on fire by some “no-account-nigger” had magni fied the fears of the people into a dreadful raid of abolitionists who were there to rescue John Brown I After the most diligent search no body was seen -Willing to givo battle to the as sembled knights, and at last accounts the shiverlry were stUl shivering. Who would not live in a slave-ridden State ? fj “Shadows to night Have struck more terror to the heart of Richard Than can (he substance often thousand soldiers Armed in proof;" and until the accursed shadow of slavery lifts its pall from the morbid mind of Virginia* shadows will continue to haunt and terrorize ing stuck to the world. A Report of the Proceedings of the Teachers’ Institute held hero last week will ho found in another column. The Report is Offi cial and was not prepared expressly for this paper. We regret that other duties prevented us from attending regularly the several sessions of the Institute. Wo were also unable to se cure a reporter who would have presented a correct account of the questions discussed, and the many excellent points made by those who took part in the discussions. The gentleman who acted as our reporter at the Tioga Insti tute, was engrossed with tho duties of presid* iug officer of the one just closed. This will be a sufficient apology to our readers fur not pre senting a report of our own. Besides the remarks of Mr. Reynolds the Su perintendent (who we believe has not an equal in the State for energy, and devotion to tho high trust reposed in him,) lectures were delivered by Prof. 11. C. Johns, and M. 11. Cobb, Esq., and an address by Miss Lizzie Lichtcnthalcr ol iLawrenccville. ,0a each occasion the Court House was crowded to its utmost, and the fre quent and hearty applause accorded to the speakers showed the popularity of this method of imparting instruction. Taking the Institute “all round” it was an excellent one, and we cannot doubt that its in fluence will be felt for good to tho schools of the county during the approaching winter. ]The M”.

[By reference to the proceedings of the Institute held at Tioga, it will be seen that the Counsel lors were instructed to give a written statement of educational affairs,,but as they failed in this, and not all being present, and only gave it ver bally, this report is necessarily quite imperfect.] Charleston.—Two school houses built within a year ; three first class ones in the town, five good and the rest poor—seventeen in all.
