PLAN FOR TAKING THE YEAS AND NAYS plan for taking the yeas and nays, in all dellberative bodies in the United States, for which C. G. Peebles, of Philadelphia, has a patent, IS as follows: two pulleys or keys are placed within the desk of each member a board or slab is placed on the clerks desk. on which is printed the name of each member oi the house; slips or slides are placed in this slab, running parallel to and to correspond with each name. Communication is had by means ot wires, or other material, between the keys in the desk and slides on the board. N hen vote oi "ayese IS called, the members simultaneously touch theirkey marked ..aye,n which throws the slide out on the board. so that 1t projects beyond his name and the edge of the board; and in like manner for the nays. By that arrangement, the clerk can count the vote, announce the result, and place the aggregate vote on the board, all within the space of minute.

HARvEsuIMG. IN PENNSYLVANIA. The fsrm-
ers are busy ia the various counties gathering
their wheat crops The accounts that come in
are favorable. In Lancaster, where short
crop was anticipated, we are gratifed to learn
says the Ledger, that the prospect ola fair crop
is much more favorable. The wheat and rye
particularly the first, were somewhat injured
by frost; but it is believed that the average crop
OF the county will be quite equal to last year.
The corn and cats have greatly improved by
the recent refreshing rains, and will yield
very fair product. The grass crop has suffered
severely by the effects of long drought, and
will not yield, it is believed, one half of the hay
produced during the last season. In Adams
county, the Gettysburg Chronicle says the grain
crops, particularly the Mediterranean wheat
yield remarkably well this season. The rye is
tolerable. yet medium crop. Oats in poor
condition, and very slim crop expected The
corn IS short, but may still yield sufficient to
pay the husbandman for his labor.

THE GREAT PESTILENCE.

The most awful pestcncc which is known

This disease, like the cholera made its first
appearance in India and other parts of Asia.
Medical science was then at a very low state.
1t ravaged the East with a virueEce vastly
greater than the cholera. by report furnish
ed the Pope, whose throne was then seated at
Avingnon, it is reported that nearly twenty
four millions of souls persisted in the East dur
ing one year.
1t soon crossed over into Greece and Italy
with unniitigated mortality. In Venice one
hundred thousand are computed to have died,
and sixty thousand in Florence. 1t marched
EDWARDS with terrific Fury into France, Germa-
ny, SC. In the most favored districts, two oct
otevery three persons died. In many places,
fourteen to sixteen cut of twenty. In some
districts not single male adult survived. In
Germany millions persisted. At Lubec, in that
empire, fifteen hundred persons died ia four
hours! In August, lS4S, Il reached Englaad,
and entered Londoa on the LIST day of NoVsm-
Der.
Many writers have described it on that Is
land, as well as other parts of Europe. |lt is
recorded that in the Church yard Of Yarmouth,
