iu cutting off their corn. The crop is an un
precedented ono everywhere. • 4
Fcbog 1-The New York Times predicts
that there will be hostile demonatrAtions tow
ards the United States, by the Allied Powers,
shortly. r
Tao Pond TRADE.—A pork dealer in. Cledß•
land has already contracted for packinilo,ooo
hogs. At Clarksville and Bowling preen, Ky.
pork.packers are contractfne; fikhogs at $-t
gross ; and at Terra Haste, Intl.,at $5 nett.
Susresziso.—Owing to some temporary dif•
ffeulties which has arisen, the' building of the
new Methodist Episcopal Chiiroh in this place
—the foundation of Which 13 completed—has
hem) postponed until the codling spring.
Rtoitr.—Wc understand that the Presbyteri
an Congregation of this borough, is negotia
ting with Captain William Dorris for the pur
chase of his present beautiful residence ; de
signing as a parsonage. It' this be correct,
we congratulate our Presbyterian brethren on
the consumation of this long needed end long
talked of purchase.
Foot, FOR TIM MlND.—Colon, the good look
ing, jovial and popular bookseller and station
er, has just returned front the annual book sales
of the eastern cities, with a well selected stock
of books. We learn that he has made addb
tional arrangements, whereby he hao increased
his facilities for procuring the latest publica
tions, which he will sell at the lowest possible
advance on publisher's prices. 'Give him a call.
T. CARNIVAL OF Famr.—Never, as long
hack ns cdir memory stretches, was there great•
•or abundance of fruit in Humble:ln County,
than at present. The markets are almost glut
ted with the various products of the orchard
and the garden. We are in the midst of the
"Carnival of Fruit." The gentle spirit of Po
mona has waved nn auspicious wand over the
Mud, and the little armies of fruit trees have
t,ruited their ranks ten-fold.
A GREAT 13.1Tri.i: hai taken place near the
North Fork of the Piano River, between 450
Ignited Slides tro. pa, under General Harney,
and a large force el lF:ionx Indians, resulting in
the (Went of the leiter, after a desperate fight,

flowerer, we plow our cause in the hands of

eate.'
11,11:1, co3TE vii JUDOENMXT !
Justice Lowrie of the Supreme Court, has whif
f' a few days published kis opinion in the Wil•
fancies case, fully coinciding with a majority
of the Bench. lie also votes to set aside the
right to dm writ of habeas corpus demanded in
the premises. It is a most diJgraeeful and hu•
miliating circumstance that the Supremo Court
of the State—which is presumed tester above
politics-81.dd thus truckle to Southern influ
ence and Locofoco ride. Is it not high time
that 1113 people forgiven: party, and stout? up
for the right?
Busy' am—Monday lust was a busy day a..
mong all classes of the people. The politicians
were about in considerable numbers, while the
inure numerous class of care nothings were on
the qui vice for the appearance of Dan Rico's
cavalcade. These latter care less for politics
—less for speculation in money matters—than
they do for fun and frolic. They go in for n
hearty laugh, let who will prefer money and po
litical advancement, and perhaps in the end
their philosophy is the trim one. At nll events
we do not feel disposed to question it now.
MAsomc lim.t.l)EnumrioN.—The dedica
tion of the new Masonic Temple, is Philadel
phia last Wednesday, drew together one of the
largest crowds ever assembled in that city.—
The
procession was a grand affair, shout •1000
members of the Order being in rooks. The
proceedings Were highly interesting throughout.
The building is one of the most grand and ma
jestic edifices ever erected in Philadelphia, nod
is an ornament to the city. We do not know
the cost, but it must have been an enormous
• sum. Will old "Mount Moriab" be again rovi.
vcd ?
TOO GooleAnxrr.—The price of Wheat
is tending upwards again, owing to the demand
for export. If farmers can dispose of all their
wheat at the present price, this ear's harvest
in the way of profit, will be an unusually largo
one. Rye is also being exported freely. The
crops of Germany are a partial failure and Rye
goes thence principally. to supply the d,ricit.sm
cy. Oats are abundant, and only in moderate
demand. The enormous crops of corn in earl•
ous parts of the country, will doubtless bring
the price of this cereal down to a reasonable
price, and its use in various ways can be resor
ted to, by those who find' it necessary to prac-
Aire strict economy.
A WEATHER. Ilex.—Some old 11,g.y of a phi
losopher has written that "every bitter has its
sweet," and the every day experience of life go
far toward establishing the truth of the senti
ment. Hot weather brings us prickly heat and
mosquitoes, irritable days and sleepless nights,
but it also brings us strawberries, iced cobblers,
turtle soup and the fourth of July. Frost adds
to oar fuel expenses, nod inches folks sweat a
bout the high price of coal, frown at their ugly
red noses, and puts them into an ague fit at the
thought of going to bed 'Alights ; but then the
frost frees us from apprehensions of the yellow
fever and cholera, and brings us a thought nes.
er buckwheat and all manner of gridlo cakes.
We should therefore, endeavor to sweeten the
affliction, with a becoming philosophy and elm
right kind of molasses.
Flmm—Every thing now.•days is gove,
nod by fashion. It rules in the church and
governs the school; it invades the sanctuary of
home and penetrates every nook and corner of
the public lecture no less than the ball room.
It flourishes like a green bay tree no less in the
parlor than in the street ;in the sick chamber
and in the drawing room. Everywhere it is
recogniicd, adored an worshipped. The old
and young, merry and grave, rich and poor, all
bow down and worship at its shrine. It regu
• lates the cut of a man's coat, the length of his
gttntnloons and the corners of his beard; noless
ruly than it does the form of a woman's bonnet
4 .'er the length of her skirt. But of all the ab.
surdities that it leads the blundering sons and`
daughters of Adam into, there is none so at,.
s urd and foolish as when it endeavors to strip
death of its solemnity and rob the grave of its
grand gloom. When fashion Neel. to embel.
fish the cold clay from which the living soul
has fled, and decorates it in fanciful and gaudy
attire, hanging it with trinkets and bedecking
it with gew-gaws, well may we exclaim, 'whore
will it end 7' In matters of affecting life and
its gaieties, we have nothing to say against
fashion ; but when it interferes with death,
peers into the coffin, prescribessumptuary rules
for the funeral cortege, without claim or k
new. Speaking of the folly of this funeral
fashion, a clever writer remarks "Let every
man or women who mourns thedeath of a near
friend or relation, make a bold stroke toward
de mlishing the foolish, expensive, nod uncouth
system of going into mourning. Let the be
reaved refuse to array themselves in sables, and
say with Hamlet
"But I have that within which, pass oth show."
-Generally grief is not made up of crapes or
• cloths, although fashionable sorrow could not
be delineated without the aid of those fabrics.
It is unrighteous to allow fashion to play the
tyrant in the grave-yard. For thesake of trade
let that monarch rule and revel in the saloon,
the opera-house, the drawing room, and the
aristocratic street; but when the tomb is in
question, let fashion he set aside. The custom
of going into monrning distresses many a poor
fatuity beyond calculation. If they do not wear
black they are heartless, the world says, and
do not respect the father, the brother, or the
sister or mother, who has suddenly departed to
life eternal. As if a broken heart is not ns
ten rotted under light colored vestments es tin
' der crape. Eye-serving grief is not grief nt all.
' We despise, we almost scoff at it.
G FAN-% N VOTERS IN NEW lona.—The New
York Stoat, Zeitung reckons the number of
t ermawspcaLing voters in that city nt ten
thon:motl. Those aro the men whom Kossuth
advises to art politically through their own
immetliate organizations.
