the following article is from the Nashville. N. H

:. One of our neighbors has got hen, who has
lust put her third brood of chickens to roost The
present season. One of her pullets had laid twenty
two eggs on Monday last. The old hen has redu-
ced raising chickens TO a science, almost She Is
none of your fussy old things who make themselves
exceedingly busy with one chicken She lays
her eggs and matches her chickens, takes excellent
care of them for four weeks. and then they are able
TO take care of themselves. Then she lays ano-

il we have such weather this, she will have an
other brood out Of the shell"
We can heat that yarn all out We, not some
of our neighbors yes, we, the editor of the Spirit
of Democracy. have got a hen which, in few
days. will put her fourth "brood Of chickens to
roost the present season." If the Telegraph's
neighbors hen has reduced raising chickens TO a
science, with her three broods. what has our old
hen done, that has never had one to die under her
charge out Of four broods?

RATHEE GUERRA whig candidate for Sem
ator in one of the western districts of PennsyIva-
mia, who is an editor, gives the following, among
other reasons for his defeat " We lost many votes,
also, on account Of the suspicion that we were an
.dbohtionist This siander, though positively de-
MED ty US, was as positively reafirmed by our op-
ponents. in every part of the county, and did us
great injury. We have idea OF instituting a
legal inquiry into the truth fasity of this dark
accusation In our opinion that would be rather
an interesting SANDER case. We would, however,
advise this defeated aspran for Office to follow the
course OF son of the Emerald Isle, who had been
called the ugIiest man in Greene county by one of
his neighbors. Paddy was very indignant at the
" dark accusation" and, through the advice Of a
friend, who was desirous of having some sport at
Paddy's expense, he determined to institute 'le-
gal inquiry into the truth or falsty Of the charge
But while OIL hi way to the Squire's Office, the
thought struck him that the " slander" might be
pro, ed; so back he came and says to his friend;
" John, an what il he proves lt?" "lt will play
the very d with YOU" says John. So Paddy
concluded it was probably best to le, the legal

THE OATS ARGUMENT.

From the result OF the late election in Belmont
of St. Clairsvile, who are in the service of the
Banks and are the tools of the monoposls of the
country, have at length convinced the people oi
their county, that high duties do not increase pri-
the democracy of Belmont have not, long since,
been " capsized." as it was at the late contest,
knowing as we do, the argumentative powers pos
sessed by some Of those democratic ,chig lawyers
As specimen of the arguments used lii this
county previous to the annual election of last year
by whig missionary from Belmont on tour OF
" labor Of love" to the people OF - dark" Monroe,
we give the following sketch of what was then fa-
miIiarly known as the " oats argument" and which
was designed to prove that the producer and not the
consumer pays the duty. But for the argument
A farmer Of Belmont loads his team with hun.
dred bushels of oats, brings them into Monroe and
proposes to sell them TO Iandland who offers 25
cents per bushel that being the price OF oats grown
in Monroe county. The Belmonter at first says
he cannot take the price offered, because he had to
pay duty of 10 cents on each bushel imposed
BY the Commissioners of Monroe, who are author
ised so to do by law of the State The Belmon-
ter, finding he can get no more for his oats. takes
the price offered, rather than take them back to
Belmont again, or seek another Market which he
cannot do without sustaining greater loss than he
will 10 take the price offered by the landlord in
Monroe. After assuming all these positions, this
sage question was then propounded by this whg
orator. "Would your Monroe landlord ask a
traveller higher price for bushel Of oats upon
which duty Of 10 cents per bushel wa, paid, than
he would for oats purchased of Monroe farmer
free of duty, when it had all cost him the same
price" The orator would then, with a great
flourish, say" now don'tyou see, fellow citizens,
that these loco.focos in Monroe have been hum
buggmg you" Such is specimen of the whig
arguments which the people were asked to look
upon as sound logic; they may do for the lawyers
of Belmont, but they will not do for the people Of
Monroe.
