.„, OB PAYL'TTE COUNTY
1302' TRUE.
The Journal, in noting the fact that 'La
cheus Patterson, the Republican, publican
candidate for County Commissioner, upon
whose duplicates for 1856 and 1857, as ap
pears by the 'County Auditor's Report, not
a cent was paid until compelled by his posi
tion as nominee to do so, has now paid up,
says, " that Mr. Patterson is square with the
county within the period legally allowed for
the settlements of such accounts."
This is not true,-and the editor of the Jour
nal,who is a lawyer, should not risk his profes
sional reputation by making such an asser
tion. The taxes of 1856 were not paid until
1858, and the editor of the I,:oizrnal, in saying
that this payment was "within the period le
gally allowed for the settlelent of such ac
counts," says that which, as a lawyer, he
knows to be untrue. Will the Journal per
sist in this assertion ?
Damage to the Sugar Crop,
We refer our readers to the Commercial
column of this day's Post, for a valuable and
correct statement of the probable damages to
the Louisiana sugar crop by the recent floods.
It will be interesting to our commercial read
ers, as well as to consumers of sugar gener-
ally.
Another Murder.
In our local column this morning will bo
found an account of the discovery of the body
of a woman, at a point near the city, suppo
sed to have been murdered. A pistol was ly
ing beside the body which had been thrown
into a clump of bushes, evidently for con
cealment. There is, as yet, no clue by which
it may be ascertained who the murdered wo‘
= man is, or who perpetrated the foul deed.
It is to ne hoped that the investigations of the
police may lead to the discovery of the assas
sin. The body was too much decomposed for
identification, but from her dress the woman
is supposed to have been a German.
State Pairs,
Stato fairs are to be held during 1858 as
follows ; Alabama, at Montgomery, Oct. 18 to
22 ; California. at Marysville, Aug. 22 to 28 ;
Connecticut, at Hartford, Oct. 12 to 15 ; Illi
nois, at Centralia, Sept. 14 to 18 ; Indiana, at
Indianapolis, Oct. 4 to 9 ; lowa at Oskaloosa,

New York, at Syracuse, Oct. 5 to 7 ; Rhode
Island, it Providence, Sept. 14 to 18 ; Ver
mont, at Burlington, Sept. 14 to 17 ; Wiscon
sin, at Madison ; Oct. 5 to 8. The United
States Agricultural Society hold their fair at
Richmond, Va., Oct 26 to 30. The Pennsyl
vania State Fair will be held at Pittsburgh
commencing on September 28th, continuing
4 days.
The Wool Market.
The Washington (Pa.)Examiner, published
in the heart of the greatest wool producing
county in the State, says that during the past
week the wool market, in that vicinity, has
been characterised by considerable activity,
without Q,ny material change in prices, which
barring exceptions, range from 25 to 40 cents.
We have heard it said that ono buyer, or
agent, Mr. George Moniger, purchased in a
single day's ride, 8000 pounds. As intimat
ed some weeks ago, the decline in prices is
from 10 to 15 cents per pound on the rates of
last year; although the depreciation has not
been so great on clips that have been proper
ly prepared for the market. Every year our
manufacturers are placing a higher value up
on the condition of wool, and no doubt, right
fully, too. A good article of wool put up in
first rate order, always will command a re
munerative price. This is a fact that our
wool growers should not overlook.
The Hay Crop.
The Carlisle (Pa.) Volunteer says :—"Our
farmers have pretty generally housed their
bay crops during the past week, which have
been unusually heavy in this country this
season—probably the heaviest ever gathered.
Many persons have already commenced cut-
ting their grain, which also promises an
abundant yield.
In all the northern States, the crop of hay
is unusually heavy. In Allegheny and all
the neighboring counties there never was a
better crop. Beef and butter ought to be
cheap and plentiful.
CAsEs of cholera are reported to have oc
curred in St. Louis.
THE Atlantic Telegraph Fleet has not been
heard from, and every day now decreases the
probabilities that the enterprise will prove
successful.
Harvest Prices lu the West.
The Chicago (Ill.) Press and Tribune says
that a meeting of farmers was :lately held at
Baden in that State, to regulate the prices of
labor, during the harvest. It was agreed and
resolved that $l,BO per day was good pay,
and that the demand of more ought to be re
sisted. The Alton Democrat says that in the
vicinity of that city $1,50 is the established
price. Two dollars per day has been being
paid in some localities in the southern part
of the State.
The Republleanti of New York.
The Republican State Committee met at
Albany on Thursday, and after the usual
bickering, resolved to issue a call for a State
Convention, composed of two delegates from
each Assembly district, to be held at Syracuse
on Wednesday, the eighth of September next,
for the nomination of State officers and the
transaction of other business. The offices
for which nominations are to be made are
Governor, State Prison Inspector, and Canal
Commissioner.
National ALrmories.
An impression exists in many parts of
the country, says the 'Washington Union
that Congress at its late session made provis
ion for the construction of additional Armor.
ies, under the direction of the:War Depart
ment. Mr. Secretary Floyd is fairly deluged
with letters recomending proper sites, of
which there are no doubt many desirable ones;
but it appears that no action by the late 'Con
gress was taken on the subject, and the Sec
retary is therefore without any additional au
thority. It will be time to consider the fit
ness of places when the department shall be
authorized to make selections from them.
—Large icebergs have been encountered, re
-ntly, about the Banks of Newfoundland.

The Atlantic Telegraph Cable.
All over the country, so far as the press
has given indications, an absorbing interest
is felt in the success of this great enterprise
—the laying of the Atlantic cable connecting
the Old and the Now World. The intolli.
genco of the fate of the enterprise was look
ed for here for the last ten days, brit at this
writing nothing has ,been communicated. In
the absence of this anxiously looked-for intel
ligence, and by way•of affording food for spec
ulation to those who are expecting hourly to
hear of success or failure, we give the follow
ing extract from an article communicated to
the New York Journal of Commerce, "from
one much more-competent than ourselves to
offer an explanation," says the editor. The
correspondent says:
The ships left Portsmouth on the 10th day of
June, under canvass, not being able to carry
sufficient coal for the voyage. The supposition
they made but E:01V progress ihrough the wa
ter, not exceeding fifty or sixty ifOiles each day.
It is believed that the Arabia sighted one of the
fleet on the 221, two hundred miles oast of mid
ocean, giving to them an average of some sixty
miles per day ; and if the same speed be main
tained for the remaining two hundred miles, it is
reasonable to suppose that the cable . 00nld not
have been united before the 27th, thus escaping
tho severe storm reported by the Arabia and In
dian Empire on the 25th. This fact alone may
decide the destiny of the cable, for einoe that
date all accounts agree that the weather has
been most favorable. It is supposed that the
ships will each pay out about one hundred miles
per day, requiring between eight and nine days
to accomplish the work. This will bring the
Niagara to Trinity Bay, New Foundland, about
the sth or 6th day of July, until which time
there should be no special anxiety for its safety ;
but after that period the absence of news may
be considered decidedly unfavorable, for it is
understood if anything occurs to the cable, de
stroying its vitality, before they arrive in two
hundred fathoms water, the ships are to return
to Europe, and we shall be deprived of any in
telligence except through vessels coming west.—
If the 10th of July pass es without intelligence
from the Niagara, it may be considered fatal to
the enterprise.

At a meeting of the Directors of the Magnet
ic Telegraph Company, held in Philadelphia
on Thursday last, a quarterly dividend of three
per cent., payable on and after the 15th inst.,
was made to the stockholders of the magnet
ic Telegraph Company, and a semi-anual div
idend of two per cent. to the stockholders of
the Washington and New Orleans Telegraph
Company—the line of the latter Company
being worked under a lease to the Magnet
ic Company, the whole forms a continuous
and unbroken line, under the same manage=
ment, from New York to New Orleans, and by
connection at New York with the Boston
Union Line to within a few miles of Portland,
Maine, which point will probably be reached
in the early part of the coming month. The
reports of the officers show the lines of the
two Companies to be in excellent working
condition, and the finances as prosperous as
ever before. Mr. Swain, for eight years
President of the Magnetic Telegraph Com
pany, being forced by the pressurepf his pri..
vato business, positively declined a reelection,
and Zenus Barnum Esq., of Baltimore, was
unanimously elected President of the Com
pany. Joseph Sailer was reelected Secreta.

AT the recent Convention of the People's
Party in Philadelphia, it was resolved to

Mr. Prettyman has been invited to visit the

NEW bons, May 8,1858
This is to certify that Mr. Paul Prettyman has
succeeded in subduing my wife. He took her
when in a most reckless condition, and in one
hour she was cooking a beefsteak with the placid

Mr. Prettyman has full liberty to refer to me.

Can not Mr. Prettyman confer an addi

vising some means by which amiable wives
may subject rebellious husbands to a just and
proper discipline?
Portrait of Goer. Packer.
A portrait of Gov. Packer by Conaroe of
Philadelphia, has been placed in the execu
tive chamber at Harrisburg. The Key-Stone
says that as a likeness it is faithful, and as a
painting upon which artistic skill is display
ed, it is not surpassed in the entire array of
gubernatorial portraits from Willliam Penn
to the present Governor, which appropriately
adorn the apartment of the Chief Magistrate.

SPINNING.
[Tho following poem by Miss Proctor, daughter of Barry
Cornwall, Is dainty as well as dreamy. The Atheneum says:
"Not merely in its tune, but in Its manner too, it reminds
na of some of the minor poems of Heine, In HeWe's good
period :1
All yesterday I was spinning,
Sitting alouo in the sun;
And the dream that I span was so lengthy,
It lasted till day was done.
I heeded not cloud or shadow
That flitted over the hill,
Or the humming bees, or the eTaallowa,
Or the trickling of the rill
I took the threads of my spinning,
All of blue summer air,
And a flickering ray of sunlight
Was woven in here and there.
The shadows grew longer and longer,
The evening wind passed by,
And the purple splendor of sunset
Was flooding the western sky.
Bnt I could not leave my spinning,
For so fair my dream had grown,
I heeded not, hoar by hour.
How the silent day had flown.
At last the gray shadows fell around me,
And the night came dark end chill,
And I r0,..e and ran down the vAley,
And left it all on tho hill.
I went up the hill thin morning,
To the placo whore my spinning lay,
There Wail nothinz bat Whitening dewdrops
Reminded of my dream to day.
VARIOUS THINGS.
—Private letters from the Gulf shore of Lou
isiana speak of the yellow fever as prevailing in
that region to some extent, and occasioning.uot
a little uneasiness among the inhabitants. The
disease, upon the same authority, has been in
New Orleans for weeks past, though the papers
have not thought it of sufficient importance to
say anything about it.
—The Cincinnati Gazette states that advices
from reliable parties in Tennessee state that no
time has been fixed for the resumption of spe—
cie payments by the Bank of Tennessee. The
institution is unquestionably in a crippled con
dition, and it is more than probable that it will
not be abje to resume within the current year.
Indeed there are indications that the Ist of
January may find it fully as weak, if not weak-'
er, in resources than it is at the present time.
--The receiver of the Hollister Bank adver
tises that he has provided for the redemption of
the circulation of the notes of that institution,
amounting to $100,269, and is also prepared to
make a dividend of twenty per cent. to the cred
itors of the bank, on the presentation of the
proper vouchers at his office in Buffalo.
—The Collins line of steamers, It is said, are
trying to make arrangements to resume their
trips to England, on the 17th inst.
—l4lme. Jenny Lind Goldsmidt has sold her
residence at Dresden, and settled finally down in
a villa near London.
—The old and widely known firm of Caleb
Cope & Co., of Philadelphia has been dissolved
and Messrs. Henry C. Howell, Samuel H. Smith,
Everett D. Hall, and Wm. G. Steel, have formed
a copartnership, as their successors. These
gentlemen are widely known for their enterprise
and business abilities, and will maintain the high
reputation of the old house. The name of the
new firm is Howell, Smith & Co.
—An Allegheny County Bond for $l,OOO is
sued to the Connelsville Road was sold in Phila
delphia on Friday at 60. This is a slight ad
vance from previous sales, 'which were made a
49.
—Brass dollars, nicely gilded to imitate very
'closely the genuine California dust, are in circu
lation, and require a sharp examination to de
tect. The milling around the edge is poorly
done. Pewter halves are likewise plentiful.
—The Chilian Government having lost, with
in six months, four British steamers which
they had purchased for their navy, it is said
now intend to order some Yankee steamships,
as there_ is but a single good_ ship in the Chilian
navy.
—Col. James M'Donuelly, late City Marshal
of Chicago, died suddenly on Friday morning
last.
—ln Chicago they have - a temperance lecturer
named Jenkins who got very drunk after tho
meeting was over, and was let off on the plea
that he was "drugged." The next day he got
"drugged" again and was . ,found lying in the
gutter, whereupon he was sent to prison.
—The Sons of Malta in Philadelphia are pre
paring in earnest to receive: their - , brethren who

the 19th. Delegates from nearly every State, we
understand, signified their intention of being
present. Five delegates from Pittsburgh will be
in attendance.

Letter from President Buchanan.
The following letter from the President was
read at the Democratic celebration in Inde
pendence Square on Monday :
WASHINGTON, July 3, 1868.
Gentlemen :—I have received your very kind
invitation to be present at the meeting of my
fellow-citizens in Independence Square, to cele
brate the approaching anniversary of our na
tional independence. Would that it were in my
power to accept the invitation. This, however,
is impossible. May we ever continue to cele
brate, with ardent_ enthusiasm, throughout the
length and breadth of the land, each successive
return of the day which gave us birth as a na
tion. Whilst we do this, and thus keep alive,
from generation to generation, the memory of
the common sufferings and the common dangers,
which our fathers encountered in achievinz our
independence, the Constitution and the Union
will be preserved.
I congratulate you, with all my heart, upon
the presenthopeful prospects of our country.—
I humbly trust that a kind Providence hae dis
pelled the angry clouds which but recently seem
ed to impend over it, and that we have nearly
reached the end of those violent and exasperat
ed sectional controversies which have threatened
the Union.
When we contrast the present condition of our
country with what it would have been at this mo
ment had Congress adjourned without enacting
any law to mitigate the sectional strife which
had been raging for years between the States of
the Confederaoy, we have every reason to be
thankful to the Supreme Ruler of nations, who
has over interfered at the hour of our greatest
need to shield us from danger.
From your friend, very respectfully,
JAMES BUCHANADJ.
Theattare Parker on the Drama.
Mr. Theadore Parker delivered himself thus
the other day:—A thousand years ago, your and
my Saxon forefathers, living in mean hovels,
for their favorite sport had mimic battles, where
in, with quarter staves, or spears, or swords,
men laid at each other in their savage joy, and
were often hurt and sometimes slain. Looking
at the howling wilderness of amusement, who
could have foreseen the time, in another land,
peopled by other Saxons, in Boston, two thousand
Christian men and women should oome together
in a theatre, paying large prices,
to see a great
scene of ambitious human life, done into mag
nificent language; by an old English Saxon poet,
ohiefest of his tribe, and that grand poetry,
enacted into a grand drama, by a New England
Saxon woman, who transfigured his thought to
life—teaching bow the justioe of God comes and
torments the murderer, and her who excites the
murderer, walking in such ghastly sleep. Who,
a thousand years ago, in the rough sports of our
-Saxon fathers could have imagined a Boston au
dience, thrilled with [esthetic and religions de
light at seeing Macbeth fitly enacted by fitting
men and women.
ODWORMS! WORMS I—Thero is no disease more
common among children, and yet none which so fro.
queutly bathes the skill of the physician, as worms. They
are highly detrimental to the constitution; and their pro.
sense should be carefully guarded against by parents. On
the first manifestations of symptoms, every moans should
be used to e:Pel them promptly and thoroughly. hrLane's
Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa.
is well established as the most certain, safe and speedy re.

keep this invaluable medicine on hand. In addition to its
perfect safety, it never faits to produce the desired effect.

ST. Jonas, June 10 —The steamship Fulton,
with advises to the. 30th, was intoroepted off
Cape 'Race on Friday, per the Associated Press
yacht.
The Fulton cnoounterod strong westerly
weather, but no ice. She saw nothing of the

The steamships America and Hammonia ar
rived out on the 27th.
The news from India is important, advising us
of British successes. The British have captured
Calpee, with a great amount of stores and am
munition. Serious disturbances had occurred at
Bombay. The Presidency political agent and
his escort had been murdered by the rebels, and
Fort Copal and New Goond were taken. Sir
Colin Campbell had beaten the rebels, and cap
tured Mohundee. The rebels were approaching
Ladino:ow, which was filly defended.
Other successes of the British are reported.
Arrival of Senator Donglas at Chicago-
CHICAGO, July 9.-11 P. In.—Senator Doug.
las arrived this evening. At 1 o'clock, a com
mittee of four hundred from Chicago and ad
joining counties, proceeded to Michigan City,
where they met Judge Douglas, and escorted
him to the city. On the arrival of the train, he
was greeted by the firing of cannon and cheers
of the people. A procession was formed, and
escorted him to the Tremont House. Here he
was welcomed in a brief speech on behalf of the
citizens by Charles Walker, President of the
Board of Trade.
Mr. Douglas, after returning thanks for his
magnificent reception, reviewed the action of the
last Congress on the Kansas bills, and extolled
the Crittenden bill as honest, and the very best
proposition of the pr9.etioal illustration of popu
lar sovereignty. He claimed that the struggle
with Lecomptonism was for integrity of princi
ple. That struggle was triumphant. Leoomp
tonistp, virtually abandoned by its friends, had
been defeated forayer. He had opposed the
English bill, although it practically sent back
the Constitution to be accepted or rejected by
the people, because the manner, as well as the
form, of that submission was at variance with
every just principle of popular government. It
was the submission of a Csnstitution to the peo
ple with a threat if they didn't accept it with a
Slave Constitution with thirty-file thousand in.
habitants, they shouldn't came in as e. Free State
until they had ninety-three thousand. He could
never countenance such discrimination between
Free and Slave States.
The best energies of his paind - las been for
several years devoted to the' great principle and
rights of the people of the territories to frame
their own fundamental laws, and he intended to
devote his future life to the Ga s tric doctrine He
contended that the Compromise measures of 18.50
were founded on that principle. The Kansas-
Nebraska billaffirmed the Cincinnati platform,
and re.affirmed President Buchanan's inaugural.
He regreted, however, that the powerful politi
cal party of this country determined not to ac
quiesce in this lino of policy. The Republican
Convention, recently assembled at Springfield,
nominated Mr. Lincoln his successor to the Sen
ate, repudiated the doctrines of popular sove
reignty, end proclaimed that Congress, and not
the people of the territories, should establish
their domestic institutions. Linoolu endorsed
not only this doctrine, but proclaimed a line of
policy which is inoompatablo to the existence of
the Union. Ho declared that if the Union was
divided in equal numbers of Free and Slave
States, the Union could not endure.
Mr. Douglas showed the dangerous tondoncy
of the doctrine ; said that it invited and pro
claimed a war of extermination of one section
against the other. Ho regarded it as subversive
to the fundamental principles upon which our
complex system of government rested, and de
nied the uniformity of local policy in the domes
tic institutions of the different States, as either
desirable or possible. Oa the contrary, the po
litical system rested upon the theory of prac
tice, and a dissimilarity in the local policy of
the domestic institutions of the different States.
Our forefathers, ho said, clearly perceived that
the domestic institutions which would suit New
Hampshire were totally unfit for the rice planta
tions of the Carolinas. Hence, the constitution
adopted provides that each State shall be sove
reign and supremq within her own limits, on the
supposition that they would be as diversified as
the States are numerous. Thus It will be seen
that the diversity and dissimilarity in the domes
tic institutions of the digerent sovereign States,
are the cardinal principles underlying the whole
system of a repu'olican form of government. Its
strength, harmony and adaptation to the wants
and interests of the people are all defended by
the right each State has to form and regulate its
own internal policy, without regard to their sim
ilarity to the constitutions of other States. Re
peated uniformity is neither desirable nor pos
sible. If possible, how could it be obtained ?
There is but one process through which it can
be accomplished. That would be to abolish State
Legislatures, and convert the Government into
one consolidated empire, investing Congress with
full powers to adopt police regulations, regulate
internal policy, and adopt domestic institutions
for all the States. Let this be done, and there
would be uniformity. Then the States would all
free their slaves—then negroes would vote every
where—then would our glorious Confederation
of thirty-two sovereign States be merged into
one consolidated empire, and then would the
uniformity of despotism reign triumphant
throughout the land.
He adverted to the necessity of maintaining
the organization of the Democratic party. While
there might be differences of opinion in respect
to the true construction of particular articles of
creed, party toleration must be indulged. There
should be no proscription of sound Democrats
because of such differences. He said that the
office-holders and Republicans who wore working
in unison for the purpose of defeating the regu
lar nominations, would be like the Russians at
Sebastopol, who kept firing, and didn't care
which the hit—French or English.
Col. Lincoln was present, and heard Douglas.
Fireworks were discharging in several parts of
the town. The number of persons in attendance
was variously estimated at from fifteen to twen
ty five thousand.

Joseph Board, City Marshal, was brutally mur
dered this morning about four o'olook, while en
deavoring to arrest a man named Barker, who
was engaged in a fight in the market house.
Barker stabbed Beard, the knife entering the
side, severing the lungs and entering the heart,
killing him instantly. The citizens were much
excited, Barker was taken to the watch house,
and from thence to the jail. He was taken from
the jail by the citizens and marched to the court
house yard. A temporary scaffold was erected
from the court house window, and at 8 A. M.
Barker was swung off. The first rope broke and
he fell to the ground, a distance of thirty feet,
bruising hie face considerably. Ho recovered in
a few minutes and was again taken up to the
window, another rope attached, and was then
made to jump again from the window. He still
hangs, and will hang till 12 o'clock.
Acidity of the Stomach and Indigestion.
"I can eat anything after taking your Holland
Bitters," is a remark frequently made to us.
To persons troubled with acidity of the stomach,
Indigestion, or any disorder of the stomach, we would
only say, .try it. Its world-wide reputation has been
established alone by the many wonderful cures it has
effected. ' When used for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver
Complaint, weakness of any kind, Costiveness and
Piles, it should bo taken in small doses—say, half a
a teaspoonful, regularly throe times a day, before
meals.
Caution !--Be careful to ask for Beerhave's Holland
Bitters. Sold at $1 per bottle, or six bottles for 85,
by the sole. Proprietors, Benjamin Page, Jr., 1.; Co.,
