The State election in Kentucky takes
place on Monday next. Acting Gov
ernor Stephenson is a canuidato lor re
election, and tbo question is only how
iiiuuu majority will be given lor the
ticket. Kentucky is democratic to the
core, and so are nil the border and
Southern States, when once the band of
military force is lifted from the people.
That will be done by tho election of

the attention to it of certain persons who

A young man who ardently desired
wealth, was visited by his Satanic maj.
ety, who tempted him to promise his
soul for cteruity.if he could bo supplied
on thii earth with all tho money he
could uso : " Tho bargain was conclu
ded tho devil was to supply tho moo.
cy, and was at last to have tho soul, un
less tho young man could spend inoro
luoney than tho devil could furnish.
1 cars passed away tho man married,
Was extravagant in his living built pal
aces, speculated wildly lost and gave
away fortunes, and yet his coffers were
5lw'J? u11- lle tned politioiuu, and
bribed his way into powerand fame, with
out reducing his "pile" of gold. He be
came a "fillibuster," and fitted out ships
and armies, but his banker honored all
hit drafts. He went to St. Paul to live,
and paid the usial rates of iutcrest for all
u ?0I?ey he conld borrow, but though
the devil mado wry faces when ho came
to pay the bills, yet they were all paid.
One expedimont aftar another failed;
tha devil counted the time, only two
years, that he must wait for the soul and
mocked the efforts of the desparing man.
One more trial was resolved upon The
man started a newspaper! The devil
growled at he bill at the end of the first
quarter, was savage at the end of bix
months, melancholy in nine, and brok,
"dead broke," at tho end of the year,
feo the uowspaper went down, but the
