CONGRESsREN--xxlsT AND XXIID
DISTRICTS.
The disaffection in the ranks of the Oppo
sition in this county, and the strong feeling
which exists in Butler county, in favor of a
candidate for Congress from that portion of
the Twenty-second District, gives reasonable
hopes to the Democracy of both districts of
electing their candidates. It is idle for the
Opposition to pretend that any, unity of pur
pose and of action exists in their ranks.
They are not organized, and those who are
attempting to lead them are men of little in
fluence—unskillful generals —each striving to
advance himself, and caring nothing for gen
eral success in the campaign. •
But even with the clashing of ill•assorted
factions and diferse interests of disappointed
men, existing in the ranks of Our opponents,
it will be 'impossible for the Democracy to
succeed in electing their . candidates without
tha exercise of especial care and judgment in
the seldction of the men whom they place be
fore the people. In making their nomination
for Congress, the Democracy, at this time,
must avoid minor issues, and tio far as is pos
sible divest themselves of personal influences.
We want men of talent, of thorough knowl.
edge of the people and the interests of the
district, and of enlarged, National, Demo
cratic views, to be our standard bearers in
the coming contest. With such men we may
succeed. With any others it is idle to hope
for success
In the `Twenty-first District the indications
of the popular feeling of the Democratic mas
ses, so far as we are able to judge of them,
- are favorable to the selection of a gentleman
who has fought many a Democratic battle for
us, and who has grown grey in the service of
the party. He possesses every political requi
site and every personal qualification to make
a Useful and acceptable representative of the
district. He is eloquent, learned and practi
cal.- He knows the people of the district, and
is thoro . ughly acquainted with their interests
and wants. He is a man who will be an honor
to the district in the halls of the National
Legislature. His personal and political char
ioter are both spotless and above reproach .
We need not name him, for the voice of the
Democracy of the district has already named
him as the right man for the right place. It
is no disparagement to tlaeCther aspirants
for the position, that we thus speak of one
upon whom the Democracy have relied in a
'score of well and hardly fought battles.
For the Twenty-second District, it is con
_ ceeded that the Democracy of Butler county
are entitled to the selection of the nominee.—
We are not informed who are the aspirants
for the position, but we may be allowed to
name a gentleman whose Democratic ante
wlents, whose: services to the party,'whose
great,personal popularity at home, and whose
high reputation for ability throughout the
State, point him out as a man peculiarly suit
ed to bear the banner of the Democracy in
his district in the coming contest.. We speak
of Jacob Ziegler, Esq., of Butler. His ser
vices as a legislator, in the position of Clerk
of the House of Representatives at Harris
burg, and as the conductor of a Democratic
journal, have given him a thorough acquaint
ance with public affairs and the method of
conducting public, business; he is of German
descent, and his nomination will prove a most
popular one with the numerous and intelli
gent:body of our German fellow-citizens who
reside in the district; ho is a gentleman of
sound information and unobtrusive, but most
effective, talent. He is a positive man and a
positive Democrat—not a negative one, like
the nominee whom the opposition have.select
ed in this district. We know no man whom
the Democracy of the Allegheny portion of
the district would centre upon with more una
nimity or greater satisfaction than Mr. Zieg
ler. In making these remarks, we' do not
-wjsh to be understood as in the slightest de
gree attempting to dictate to the Democrats
of Butler County. Whatever national Demo
crat they may name, we, 'of-Allegheny, will
endorse, but as. the time is drawing near
when the nominations must be made, we sug
gest him as a gentleman eminently qualified
and admirably suited, to lead the Democracy
of the Twenty-second District to a successful
In both districts we hope to see leading
spirits of our party placed. upon the tickets.
We can only hope to succeed by pursuing
this course. To nominate our strongest men
is the most promising prestige of success.—
If our opponents have nominated second class
men, it is our duty to oppose them with first
class men. Let us do it.
A liiinorni Spring Discovered by the
We have received a letter from a corres
pondent at Cannon's Mills, Columbiana coo n
ty,Ohio, giving , a wonde'rfnl account of the dis
covery of a Mineral Spring in St. Clair Town
ship; near Spencervale, a small village on the
'waters of the Little Beaver, on the road to
Calcutta, (0.) Our correspondent says that a
spiritual medium—a gentleman from Cleve
land, who is a sincere believer in the doctrine
• of spiritualism, has had a communication
with the world of spirits, and by their in
structions has discovered a Mineral Spring of
wonderful medical qualities. It cures, he
says, diseases of the body and perhaps also of
the mind. Persons who drink' of this wonder
ful water are not thirsty again for twelve hours
after. The water contains Magnesia, lodine,
and Oil. Our correspoOant says there is no
doubt about the oil, for he has seen it him
, self._ The gentleman who writes the letter
to us, is doubtful about the spiritual _charac
ter of' the discovery, but ho alleges that the
spring is a . "fixed fact" , and its waters do
possess rare medical properties. If it cures
"diseases of the mind as well as the body "
we advise the Cleveland! medium to use the
waters freely. They may do him good.

I notice by the True Preee of thiAity, of Monday,
that the heavy editor is again at his poet and pitch
ing into dead bead editors, legislators and judges, for
riding over railroads without paying. If there is
any evidence of corruption in all this, it would be
advish'bla to examine the pockets of the smiling
Kennedy, the animated County Commissioners, as
well as a few other prominent gentlemen, now busily
engaged in denouncing railroads, who travel with
their families over The Pennsylvania Central. The
stop thief cry may do well enough for the smell batch
of repndiationists. hereabouts to amuse the uninitia
ted, but the menticu of a few names, taken from the
books in the offices of railroads where lists of passes
are kept may put a different aspect upon the ease.
The man who publicly ()barges tuat Lowrie, Wood

[Correspondence of the Plttaborgh Pont .1
PRAIRIE Dtt CHIEN, Wie., )
July 22, 1858. )
Dear Poe :---The route I have traveled over
in reaching this point, from Pittsburgh, proba
bly offers more inducements to the ploasure•seek
er, or to one anxious to be relieved from the
cares of business, than any other of the same
length in lhe country. A distance of over seven
hundred miles from the Smoky City, the whole
intervening space is replete with the most varied
and romantic scenery and interesting sights to
relieve the tediousness of a lengthy and prolong-
ed journey.
Prairie du Chien is a comparatively new town,
located at the mouth of the Wisconsin river, at
the terminus of the Milwaukee and Mississippi
Railroad, Within a mile of the Mississippi river.
The inhabitants claim for it four or five thous
ands of a population, but from appearances I
should think it didn't number half that quantity.
It is rising into importance, however, as the
terminus of a railway route, and, doubtless, in
a few years, will be one of the la rgost attics in
western Wisconsin.
- I reached here last night from Chicago, enjoy
ing from that city one of the finest journeys it
has ever been my fortune to make. Leaving the
Garden City in the 10 A. M. train of the Chi
cago, Fon do Lao, and - St. Paul Railroad, a few
minutes brought us out on the almost boundless
prairies spread over northern Illinois and west
ern Wisconsin. -
For about thirty miles, the road runs over
ground level almost as a floor, and has neither
curve or grade of any account to surmount. Not
a bill or elevation, and scarcely a tree or house,
are in view to obstruct the eight, and as far as
the eye can reob, it wanders over immense plains,
resplendent with the waving green corn fields,
or yellow with the plenteous harvest just being
gathered. To a person used to our Pennsylva
nia hills, the sight is singularly strange and in-
teresting.
This is snooeded by a series of rolling plains,
interspersed with chimps of trees and bashes,
with ccoasionally a small stream or lake, mean
dering or glistening in the distance, tho whole
forming:a prospect of the most magnificient char
acter.
This kind of prarie land continues until you
reaoh Janesville, a flourishing town of 600 or
700 inhabitants, situated on Rook river, Rook
county, Wisconsin, where we made a conneotien
with the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad
running from Like Michigan to the Mississippi
river, through the centre of Wisconsin.
A few miles farther on, btill plesing over an
undulating country, the finest and most fertile
probably the Bun ever shone upon, we arrived
at Madison, the capital of the State, a handsome
and elegantly situated city, abounding in many
fine buildings, of which a cursory view was had
as we'passed through. Tue place is located ou
the shores of one of the lakes which abound so
plentifully in this region, and apparently is a
charming place to reside.
From Madison west, the country continues
of the same prairie like character unt'l the Rail
road strikes the waters of the Wisconsin river
when, for the first time since leaving home, you
get among elevations that rise to the dignity of
hills. The Wisconsin is a wide but shallow
stream and the road winds along its valley down
to this place. Along this portion of the rbute,
it is very wild and uncultivated, abounding in
scrubby titles, sind uncomfortable looking mo
rasses.
Though Illinois and Wisconsin, the crops seem
to be in a good condition, and from what I could
learn from farmers and others along the road,
the crop of wheat will be very fair. The o orn
looks remarkably well and will be an immense
yield.
The best route to reach this place, St. Paul and
North West generally, is by the Chicago, Fon du
Lao and St. Paul Railroad, which runs in connec
tion with the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad
and a spiondid line of steamers for Prario du
Chien, forming a continuous and pleasant line.
The fare is as low as by any route, while the time
is several hours less. The distance from Chicago
to here is about 230 miles, and the time ten
hours. The trains are carefully handled, acci
dents almost unknown, and in every particular
complete satisfaction rendered to the traveler.
M.
Rareyva Great florae Taming Secret
First. That he (the horse) is so constituted
by nature that ho will not offer resistance to
any demand made of him, which he fully com
prehends, if made in a way consistent with the
laws of nature.
Second. That he has no consciousness of
his strength, beyond his experience, and can
be handled according to our will without force.
Third. That we can, in compliance with the
laws of his nature by which he examines all
things new to him, take any object, however
frightful, around, over, or on him, that does
not inflict pain, without causing him to fear.
The horse, though possessed of some faoulties
superior to man's being deficient in reasoning
powers, has no knowledge of right or wrong, of
free will and independent government, and knows
not of any imposition practiced upon him, how
ever unreasonable these impositions may be.
Consequently, ho cannot come to any decision
as to what he should or not do, because he has
not the reasoning faculties of man to argue the
justice of the thing demanded of him. If he
had taken into consideration his superior strength
I he would be useless to a man as a servant..
Every one that has ever paid any attention to
the horse has noticed his natural inclination to
smell everything which to him looks new and
frightful. This is his strange mode of examin
ing everything. And when he is frightened at
anything, though he looks at it sharply, he seems
to have no confidence in this optical examination
alone, but must touch it with his nose before he
is entirely satisfied; and as soon as this is done,
all is right.
We 'might very naturally suppose, from the
fact of the horse's applying his nose to every..
thing new to him, that he always does so for
the purpose of smelling these objects. But I
believe that it is as much or more for the pur
pose of feeling, and that he makes use of his
nose or muzzle (as it is sometimes called) as we
would of cur bands; because it is the only
organ by which he can touch or feel anything
with much susceptioility.
We know, from experience, that if a horse
sees and smells a robe a short distance from him,
he is very much frightened (unless ho is used to
it) until he touches or feels it with his nose ;
whioh is positive proof that feeling le the con-
trolling sense in this ease.
It is a prevailing opinion among horsemen
generally that the sense of smell is the govern
ing sense of the horse ; and Faucher, as well as
others, has, with that view, got up receipts of
strong smelling oils, So., to tame the horse,
sometimes using the Chesnut of his logo, which
they dry, grind into powder, and blow into his
nostrils, sometimes using the oil of rhodium,
origanium, &0., that are noted for their strong
smell; and sometimes they scent the hand with
the sweat from under the arm, or sometimes
blow their breath into his nostrils, Ste. &c. ; all
of which, as far as the scent goes, have no effect
whatever in gentling the horse, or conveying any
idea to his mind; though the acts that aeoompany
these efforts—handling him, touching him about
the nose and head, and patting him, as they di
rect you should, after administering the articles,
may have a great effect, which they mistake to
be the effects of the ingredients used.
Now reader, can you, or say ono else, give
one single reason how scent can convey any idea
to the horse's mind of what we want him to do?
If not, then of course strong scents of any kind
are of no avail in taming the unbroken horse.
In order to obtain perfect obedience from
any horse, we must first have him fear us, for
our motto is, fear, love, and obey; and we must
have the fulfilment of the first two before we
can expect the latter; for it is by our philoso
phy of creating fear, love, and confidence, that
we govern to oar will every kind of horse what
ever. I should not want, for myself, more than
half or three-quarters of an hour to handle any
colt and have him running about in the stable
after me ; though I would advise a new beginner
to take more time and not be in too much of a
hurry. When you have entered the stable,
stand still, and let your horse look at you for a
minute or two, and as soon as he is settled in
one place, approach him slowly, with your arms
stationary, your right hand hand hanging by
by your side, holding the whip as directed, and
the left bent to the elbow, with the hand pro
jecting. As you approach him, go not too near
his head or croup, eo as not to make him move
either backward or forward, step a little to the
right or left, very cautiously ; this will keep him
in one place. As you get very near him, draw
a little to his shoulder and stop a few seconds.
If you -are very near him, he will turn his head
and smell your hand, not that he has any pre-
[From the London Pamphlet.],.
ferenoa for your hand, but because that is pro
jeoting, and is tbe neereat portion of your body
to the horse. This all melte will do, and they will
smell your naked 'hand just as quickly as they
will of anything thine' b that yon can put in it,
and with just as good an ace., however much
some Men may have preached the doctrine of
taming horses by giving the animals the scent of
articles from the hand. I have already made it
appear that that notion is a mistake.
As soon as he touches his nose to your hand,
caress him as before directed, always with ovary
soft light hand, merely touching the horse, always
rubbing the way , the hair lies, so that your hand
will pass along as smoothly as possible. As you
stand by his side, you may find it more conve
nient to nab his neck or the side of his head,
which will answer the same purpose as rubbing
his forehead. Favor every inclination of the
horse to touch or smell you with his nose. Al
ways follow each touch or communication of
tnis kind with the moat tender and affectionate
careseess, accompanied with a kind look and
pleasant word of some sort, such as "Ho ! my I
little boy, hn ! my little boy:" "Pretty boy I"
"Nice lady !" or something of the kind, con
stantly repeating the same wards, with the 811113
kind, steady toile of voice; for the horse soon
learns to road the expression of the face and the
voice, and will know as well when fear, love, or
anger prevails as you know your own feelings;
two of which—fear and anger--a good horse
man should naver feel.
If your horse, instead of being wild, seems te
be of a stubborn or mulish disposition ; if 1 ,,
lays back his ears as you approach him, cr
turns his heels to kick you, he has not that -
gard or fear of man that he should have to en
ble you to handle him quickly and easily;
it might be well to give him, a few sharp cu•
with the whip about the legs, pretty close to the
body. It will crack keenly as it plies around his
legs, and the crack of the whip will affect him
as much as the stroke; besides, ono sharp cut
about his legs will affect him more than two or
three over his back, the skin on the inner part of
his legs or about the flank being thinner ;and
more tender than on his back.. But do not whip
him much.

Anothe - Great Cure Elleeted by Barlirtee's golland
The wife of Pieter Da liVitte, living In Holland
TOwn, Sheboygan county, Wisconsin, suffered much
from Weakness of the Stomach and indigistion. She
had been under a physician's caroler some time, but
the disease seemed to baffie even his skill. She pur-,
chased some HOLLAND BITTERS at our office,
which has 'given tone to her stomach; her appetite
and strength •are returning, and we firmly believe
that this is another great cure effected by your med.
icine.
We have atilt to record many wonderful cures ef
footed by: this remedy, but must wait another upper.
tnnity. One thing you can rely upon, what we have
published are from persons much respected in our
community, and are literally true.

Messrs. Fleming Bros am a practicing physician, re•

with the superior virtues of DII. M'LANE'S VERMIN:I'4,E,
prepared by you. At some more leisure moment, I will send
you the result of an experiment I made with one vial, in
expelling upwards of 900 worms.

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS
dir. Editor: I was somewhat astonislied to see
in the last issue of .your weekly paper a com.
munication recommending Mr. MATTR.DW HARRISON,
for nomination, by the Domooratio Convention, for the
office cf Sheriff. The Post has all along taken strong
and decided ground against all sectarianism as well as sec
tionalism in politics. It appears somewhat strange, to
me as an old Demo:rat, to ace in your paper a Puff in favor
of a inaa who devoted so much time, in 1854, in organizing
what wits tormod Idatow Nothing lodges in several of the
democratic districts of this county. It strikes me as wrung
to reward Wm for that co soon, t ) the excluaion:of the voter.
