MONDAY MORNTIQG:
The sentence of the defendant on Satur
day_ e
last closed for the present, at least, one
of the most disgusting criminal trials which
has ever taken place in this country. A man
who, for his supposed morality, integrity of
character,"aralmatily virtues, was placed in
the highposition of a moral reformer, has,
if the testimony is to be believed,heen proved
a hypocrite of the blackest character, and a
sedundrelof the deepest dye. His course of
action: has greatly damaged at least the
present; :if not future, usefulness of the
institution of which he had charge. It was
designed us-a reformatory school for way
'ivardr.tfting youth: He has mad it not a
brotheOuta: harem—a seralgio. -
Whitest is tohe regretted that a blow has
been given to a public institution designed
to reform - youth, the public feels that the
Beard: of Managers have not, done their
whole ditty in this ease In the conduction
of an institution like this, it was enough
for the breath of suspicion to have tainted
the character of its chief officer, to have in
dniSed dießoard to make a change. This is
admitted - lo have been the case in 1857, and
then 'Mr: Rutherford's connection with the
institution should have ceased. The mis
take which the-Board inade was in having
toe much regard for the Superintendent and
not:enough for the welfare of the hundreds
of erring youth, over whom he had charge.
Toe useful, an institution like the House
of Refuge; must, so far as possible, bo per
fect in its governmental organization. A
good boiler maker will always throw aside
a suspected ... plate of iron, and not wait till
the boiler lies bursted before he removes it.
The reSult of this trial proves that - Mr. Ruth
erford Was never a fit man for the position
he held: It- was a fault in. the Board of
varrgers, composed as it is of gentlemen
of integrity, knowledge of life, and experi
ence inlitinian character, that they had so
long and so intimate a connection with their
chief °Winer without ascertaining his true
character. Their neglect, or call it what
yoti ascertain, his true character
has done ,more damage to the institu
tion-than they can repair in years. The
puhlic -have in -it great degree lost con
fident% in- it which can only be regained by
time. The - position which some of the
managers seem'. to have assumed that they
were hound..to,sustain 11r. Rutherford, be
cause they, believed him innocent of the
charges Made against him, was a false one.
The charge once made, his usefulness as a
Superintendent was gone forever. As his
friends, helieving him innocent of the char_
ges; they were bound in manly honor, to
defend ' the character ,of the man, but they
should' not have endeavored to retain him
in his position—a position of such im. - nense
responsibility for good or for evil.

fair trial before an impartial judge, and an

counsel of most diStingttished ability. No

We entertain a convictionithat all were

If -he be'innocent, he is among the most
unfortunate ofmen. But the testimony
ecadd notbe controverted. His moral con
duct
was utterly indefensible. His practiced

of his Cleedisi so far as the law provides for
his pmaishthent. We are very far from feeling
any maudlin sympathy with him or any such
criminal. He has had a fair trial ; the ju
ry have,fourid' him guilty of the crime al
leged against him ; the public are satisfied,
and do not attempt to question the judg

Itseems that by the law of Virginia, even
after trial and.conviction, upon a suggestion
made of insanity, a prisoner may have that
point tried by jury. To give the counsel of
John an opportunity to have such an
issue trained and tried, an application has been
made to 'Gov. Wise to postpone the execution
of the sentence; and as a basis for his action
in the premises, a collection of affidavits taken
in Ohio among the relatives and early acquain
tanceiol Brown has been submitted to him.

The - -two papers loudest in the call for the

execution of 'Brown and all his confederates,

STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS.
The subjoined literary photograph of the
great Western statesman and orator, Judge
Douglas, we find in a W:Orkrecently issued from
the press, entitled "Ten years of Preacher life."
The author will be in the recollection of many
of our readers of the respectable and numerous
denomination of Methodists as the " Blind
Methodist," he being a preacher of that sect,
NOV. 28
and having once, at an unusually early age,
been a Chaplain of Congress. His book con
tains numerous notices of dead and living ce-
ebritics of the political world, among others the
following interesting sketch of the candidate
of the American people for the Presidency in
Stephen Atntdd Douglas.—The first time I
saw him was in June, 1838, standing on the
gallery of the market house, which some of my
readers may recollect as situate in the middle of
the Fquare atJacksonville. He and Col. John
J. Hardin were engaged in canvassing Morgan
county for Congress. He was upon the thres
hold of that greatworld in which he has since
played so prominent a part, and was engaged
in making one of his earliest stump speeches.
I stood and listened to him, surrounded by a
motley crowd of backwood farmers and hunt-
ore, dressed in homespun or deer skin, my boy
ish heart glowing with exultant joy, as he, only
ten years my senior, battled so bravely for the
doctrines of his party with the veteran and ac
complished Hardin. True, I had been educa
ted in political sentiments opposite to his own,
but there was- something captivating in his
manly straightforwardness and uncompromis
ing statement of his political principles. He
even then showed signs of that dexterity in
debate, and vehement, impressive declamation
of which he has since become such a master.
He gave the crowd the color of his own
mood as he interpreted their thoughts and
directed their sensibilities. His tiret, hand
knowledge of the people, and his power to
speak to them in their own language, employ
ing arguments suited to their comprehension.
sometimes clinching a series of reasons by a
frontier metaphor which refused to be forgot
ten, and his determined courage, which never
shrank from any form of difficulty or danger,
made him ono of the most effective stump ore

Less than four years before he had walked

southwest of Jacksonville, in entire stranger.

between reading newspaper, studying Blask•
stone and talking polities. It is a droll sight
to see a crowd of man and boys gutherod in one
of the primary conventions of squatter Sover
eigns, at a village store on the public square,
after night. It is a Rialto for the merchants, a
newsroom for the quidnunee, a mixture of the

and a theatre and circus united for the huge',

population, but that his character has taken
shape find color from that of the bold men of
the border, where pluck was the highest vire
tue, and "backbone," to use a phrase of the
country, compensated for many a deficiency in
elegance. His organization is exuberant, but
not coarse. Like the prairies of his adopted
State, which in their wilderness yield a lune•
riant bounty of long grass and countless flow
ers, but return to culture unmeasured harvests
of wheat and corn ; so his youth may have
known the flush and pride of rude health, yet
his manhood turns up, under the ploughshare
of experience, a loans a to mature the glori
ous plants of wisdom, power, virtue, and pa
triotism.

The tide of emigration that has set toward the
State for this last few years has been very great,
and the number of emigrants this year undoubt

the glowing accounts sent us by those who
have been hitherto successfully engaged in that
business there, have materially contributed
to this infles. Texas is admirably adapted to

BUT ONE PAIR OF STOCKINGS TO

An old wife sat by her bright fireside
Swaying thoughtfully to and fro
In an ancient chair whose creed:) . craw

. While down by her safe on the kitchen floor
bloods basket of worsted balls—sa scorn.
The good Ulan dozed o'er the latest news,
Till the light of his pipe went out:
And unheeded. the kitten with cunning paws,
Rolled and tangled the balls about;
Vet still cot the wife in the ancient chair,
Swaying to and fro in the fire-light glare.
But !mon, a misty teandrop canto
In her eve of faded briß , ,
Then trickled down inn furrow deep,
Like a single drop of dew;.
So deep wns the channel—so silent the stream,
The good man saw naught but the dun'd eyobenm
Set marvelled he much that the cheerful light
Of her eve had weary grown,
And marvelled he more at the tangled Galls—

Then she spoke of the time when the ba.sket there
Wss filled to the very brim.
And now there remained of tho goodly pile
But a single pair—for him:
Then wonder not at the diad eyedight—•
There's but ouo pair of stockings to mend to-niF,
I cannot but think of the busy feet,
Whose wrappings were wont to lay
In the basket, awaiting the needle's time—
Nor wandered so far away
How the sprightly steps to n mother dear,
Unheeded fell on the careless ear.
For each empty nook in the basket told,
By the hearth there's an empty peat,
And I miss the shadows from oil' the wall,
And the patter of many feet
'Tie for this that a tear gathered over my sight—
At the one pair of stockings to mend no-night.

The late outrage ut Harpies Ferry has Justly
evcitcd the indignation of the conservative
portion of the country-. The noire we con
sider its attendant circumstances, the snore
clearly are we convinced that we are cast upon
troublous times. It is not the audacity of the
attempt, nor the danger, immediate or Remote,
that threatens, through such means, the exist
el4f, ,rf the Southern States and their institu
tions, that gill, us with apprehension and
alarm, but it Is that heresy, of political senti
ment, and that fanaticism of religious
prevalent of late, and of which this murder
ous outrage is a significant consequent. We
read in the signs of the times the evidences of
eristing danger to our Tree institutions. If
these troubles werp qie offspring of heated po
litical passion, we would scoreely regard them
as worthyy of serious attention. The strifes pf
partisanship are known to be but ephemeral,
and will die with the transient purposes they
are designed to subserve. But in the excite
pent and alarm that now agitates the country,
we recogriixe an evil of more gigantic propor
tions, a purpose of a darker hue, and an aiming
at results, the ultimate consequences of which
are but faintly foreshadowed In tbat, increasing
alienation of national sympathy and fraternal
regard, the maintenance of 'which is indispensa
ble to the perpetuity of the Union.
Disguise it as we may, yet the fact stares us in
the face thata misguided religious zeal is the sole
cause of all the excitement and alarm. In the
whole Northern section of tho country, the
Protestant church has become the propagator
of sentiments subversive alike of social order
and constitutional government. The favor
with which religion and its institutions have
been regarded in this country has been used
for the purpose of furthering ono wild scheme
after another, until now,in the Northern States,
church inguence seeks to usurp the 'proroga
tires of power, and it has created a senseless
chimera, called the " higher lew," to which it
asks allegiance in political action, in deroga
tion of the Constitution of tho United States.
We witness every day the desecration of the
pulpit, and the profanation of texts of Scrip
ture, by fanatical religious demagogues, in
apotheosizing traitors and murderers. Those
doctrines of " Peace on earth, and good will
to men," are proclaimed as the instruments
of insurrection murder, rapine and treason,
while the traitors, with hands crimsoned with
the blood of unoffending brethren, are celecra
ted as martyrs to the holiest of causes.
Where are we drifting? What will be the
end of all this obliquity of moral sentiment
and heresy of constitutional fealty ? Shall
we see the noblest structure_ - ! f human freedom
ever designed by men Zit of all the dan
ger that threatens it, mil , ' bngthened by the
ordeal ? Or shall we fair proportions

ist nor a partisan; but, it2 , lew of impending
danger, I cannot withhold smy feeble efforts in
the endeavor to recall my countrymen to sober
reflection. If over the exigency of the times

Pennsylvania.
The Pittsbnrgh:(Penn.) Post objects to our
conceding Pennsylvaniato the Republicans in
the election'of ISGO.. It states that if Senator
Douglas is nominated at Charleston he will
certainly receive its electoral vote. Senator
Douglas can be elected without Pennsylvania;
but it is gratifying to see the confidence which
animates our friends that he can also carry
that Slate. He is unquestionably tens of thou
sands of votes stronger in Pennsylvania than
any other man, and if it is designed to redeem
her he mustbe the nominee at Charleston. We
do not believe any other Democrat has the ghost
of a chance to carry her. The next Presiden
tial battle will be a severe one; but, with Sena:
tor Douglas as our standard-bearer, its result
will not bo doubtful. We shall carry the ono
hundred and twenty electoral votes of the
South, and, in addition, the following States:
Indiana 13
Illinois 1
..
.. 1
Oregon 3
Calnornin 4
Wl , con MID
lihio
That is 30 more than is necessary to elect.
In addition, we may carry Pennsylvania, 27 ;
New Jersey, 7;- and New York, 85. But the
principal reliance must bo upon the North
west. It is here that the battle is to be fought,
and it is with reference more especially to this
section of the country that the nomination
should he made.—Cincinnati. Enquirer.

AN ADVERTISEMENT in the Peoria
Tr aiuonjt, of November 4th. calls on Coal Lageers
to come to Peoria to work. it states that from 150 to 53 1 )
min find employment.. As we deem ,ucli an adcerthe
ment calculated to mislead many already nearly impov
erished miners, we take this occasion to state, there is
-now more coal-diggers here than can find employment,
and warn all to stay away. Many that have been attract
ed here by such unwarrantable calls, are in a suffering
condition, after paying out their little-all to get here.

ART.IF.ICIAL:TEETS.
IT is well known that first class Dentistry
has teen beyond the reach of the mass of people
on account of its costliness, and the majority, rather
than take up with the inferior worknaanshlp of "cheap
Dentists," have adopted the wiser' course and dorm
without any, for if a set of teeth be imperfect m work
manship and inexact in fit, it is worse than useless and
dear at any price. , •
THE CORALITEAND PORCELAINTEEM
augurated a new era in the science or der4Hary--being
the vary best Artificial Teeth now in use, they can . be
afforded at prices that place theta within the reach of
all. -
Being the first to introduce these new styles at' work
to this community, I accordingly fixed such pricei as I
,teemed would remunerate the best artistic and.nie
clianical skill. Since then, however,the unprecedented
favor with which the work has been received, has, com
pelled
other Dentists to adopt it, some of whom wish to:
retain the old gold plate prices, which I consider would
be exorbitant; for, though the new styles are really
more valuable than the best gold work, they are inside
of less expensive material. The increased amount .of
work done also compensates for the reduction in pride -
On the other hand, a few Dental Quacks of this
who possess neither mechanical skill or common home
esty, advertise the work at prices slightly less than ray_
own, notwithstanding they have neither the ability nor
the right (it being patented) to manufacture it. The
olject of this trickery is merely to obtain an opportn ,
uity to disparage the Condi te and Porcelain and recant
mend some of their own worthless work.
I have felt bound, in justice to myself and the pubile;
to make knows these facts.
The qualities of the PORCELAIN AND COBALITE
PLATE TEETE, whicifesuiblish their great superiority
over the hest gold °rather metalie plateare--endre free
dam from all metalic taste, smell or tarnish. beincin
' corrodible and impervious to the juices of the rnoathr,'
perfect .adaptation or fit, (impossible in metallet work,)
which. with much greater strength and lightnes. ena
bles them to be - worrt with more case, comfort and Mil' i
ty. They arc alio far more durable, less liable to
and more easily repaired. - - -
