Gen. Joseph Lane.

The time is rapidly drawing near. when candidates
will have to be nominated for President and Vice Presi-
dent of the United States, and the public press is be-
ginning 10 express It's preference for the individuals who
should be nominated for those responsible stations.
With all due Difference TO the claims, services and qKal-
iacatIOns Of the other distinguished democrats spoken
o., we unhesitaIngly proclaim our first choice for the
Presidency to be Gen. JOSEPH LANE-ths Marion Of
the MeEicGR WGT-a man, we think, possessing all the
elements Of true popularity, and having in an eminent
degree that ~indOmitable energy OF character, purity.
strength and singleness Of purpose, frmncss and good
practical sound sense, that so highly distinguished the
immortal Jackson, and rendered him so deseTyedly pop
ular with hs fellow citizens. He is n man Of the peo-
pie, s~elf-made, and free from the contamina,ing inAu-
ences to which politicians have been exposed during a
lpng residence in Washington City. We give a decided
preference TO a man fresh from the people over a mere
politician, aud think Gen. Lanes honesty and sound
sense. are far better qualifications for the Presidency.
than the more snowy talents of his competitors.
He is. we believe, the first and almost unanimous
choice OF the democracy OF Indiana; and we would re-
commend that the county conventions fully express their
preference, and instruct their delegates 10 support his
claims at our State Convention.
Gen. Lane Is not, We are aware, very prominently be-
fore the people OF the United States hs a candidate for
the high and honorable station Of President Of this great
republic; the demonstrations in his favor have hitherto
been confined almost exclusively to this State. where his
merits are best known. But we think If a proper effort
be now made by his friends throughout the State, and a
free expression given TO the views Of Indiana her un-
doubted democracy, known devotion to the Union. and
freedom from the ultraism Of both Northern lanaticism
and Southern madness, would give him strength in other
States and place him more prominently before the poo
PIE than any other candidate.-For Wayne Sentinel.

The Tarih-Home Thrusts.

The Albany Kniekerbocker, (Whig } thus ~disposes Of.
the Tribune and Times theoretical nonsense about the
operation of the present tariff on the labor, and produce
OF the country. 1t is a practical application Of the SUBJ
Ject, which every man can understand
GREELEY AND RAYmoND.-From the nonsense which
we find in q G Times and Tribune, we should certainly
think that Greeley and Raymond very seldom went to
market. To uphold their high tariff notions, they make
use of some Of the most Preposterous arguments to be
met with out of Bedlam. The Times OF Tuesday, in-
sists that the free trade iniquity Of 1916 is gradually I'm.
poverishing agriculturists, converting our farms into
thistle patches. and our planters into paupers. The
cheek with which their statements are made, shows that
brass is a metal that enters very largely into the compo-
sition of those who believe that Lowell is the centre of
the world and Massachusetts the rest OF IT," The Times
insists that the farmers are now being ruined" Let
US examine the matter. First quality butter, at this
very moment, sells at the ruinOusly low price Of twenty
cents a pound, and lard in proportion. Potatoes are
worth five shillings a busheI. almost what wheat brought
a few years ago. Apples are worth from three 10 six
shillings a bushel-under the protective tariff of 1912
they sold for eighteen pence. Turnips bring from TWEEN
ty-hye cents to thirty-seyen and a hall cents a bushcl-
a few years since you could buy them for a shilling.
Mutton IS worth from five TO eight cents a pound-under
tho tariff of 1912 you could buy whole cords Of II in this
city at two and a half and three cents. The price Of
beef during the past season has been higher than it has
been before for twenty years. During the tariff OF 1912,
pork vas put up ia Cincinnati for two and a half and
three cents a pOund-it is now worth four and a half and
five cents. Oats. under the tariff of 1912, sold at TWEEN
ty-eight cents a bushel-last winter they brought forty
cents. Barley, which once sold in our market for fifty
TOUR cents Il huSutl. is now Seihh4 IN view oIh Z sew
enty-eight and eighty cents. Poultry, twelve years ago,
sold IN Albany at six and eight cents a pound, it now
sells at ten and twelve cents. Ham, which sold. under
the tariff of 1912, at prices varying from four to seven
dollars per hundred, is now worth from nine to eleven
dollars. With the exception Of -four and wheat, there
is not one single article winch our farmers sell that they
do not get First rate prices" for, and when you take in
TO consideration the fall which has taken place in the
price of every article which the agriculturist buys, it is at
least questionable whether the raising of 'breadstu1s"
is not about as profitable to-day as it ever was. As we
said before, the man who thinks the farmer is being ru-
ined. should just hang a basket on his arm, and visit the
market. An hours experience is worth all the philoso-
ply that was ever spun.

What are the wings Going to do.

The Wings are In a bad way. In Ohio and Pennsyl-
terribly s%wamped. In Virginia. where they hung out
the banner of Fillmore and the UGion. they are defeated,
horse, foot, dragons, artillery and baggage-wa9ons
In New York. where they mixed up Scott, Fillmore,
Seward and Webster, Union and disunion, the ConstIlu-
ton and the higher law, and the canals, all together,
they have lost ground, and nothing saves them from ut
ter destruction but the canals. And in this city, where
they endorsed the fugitive slave law. they ae entirely
too late 10 come to tea in the tea room. There Is YET a
solitary chance in Observation-Disclosures last chance; for
il Massachusetts, on the l0lb OF November. fails To stand
up tn Mr. Webster, the case Is outlines up; and
Scott, Fillmore aud WeisfeT-the trio-the hero al Meal
CO, the expounder of the Constitution. and The executor OF
the fugitive slave law-will all be laid mp to dry; and in
their last extremity they and the Wing party may yet he
compelled to turn to Henry Clay. They have had nothing
but bad lnck since they betrayed and deserted him.
Now it is the eleventh honr-yea, il is half past eleven
hut still he may save them On a Union platlorm.-N. I.

Winter i'm ST. Petersburg.

To defend ones self from the weather, the most con-
slant and minute precautions are required. In October,
Russians and all who have been long in the country, as
sumo fur clothes, ard keep them in continual wear until
the month Of April. after the ice has broken up on the
Neva. Stoves are lit everywhere, and each family lays
in a stock of birch wood, the blaze of which is more
abundant than any other wood. There is a servant es-
is to keep up, as much as possible, an equal heatthrough-
ont the house. The best stove keepers Qame procures
them a high salary are generally from Moscow.
Twenty degrees Of cold do not appear astonishing to
an inhabftant of St. Petersburg, though he then casts a
curious look at the thermometer. AT twenty-three or
twenty-lOur degrees, constant rounds are made during
the night, to prevent police and the sentinels from fall
ing asleep on their posts. Should the cold bring on
drOwsiness. and the sufferer not he able to prevent him.
self from yielding to its influence, he must perish, as he
can only wake from his sleep in another world. At
twenty-five degrees the theatres are closed, and all
those who are obliged to go out on foot, hurry along with
their utmost speed most anxiOusly looking at the noses
Of all those they meet in the street. If a sudden pale

feeling-should appear on that part Of the face, the pas

duce animation. The same thing may happen to the
operator himself before the hour is over. AT thirty de-
grees of cold, the poor popnlace alone 90 out of doors,
entire families shut themselves mp. and not a single
sledge or any appearance Of fashion is seen in the streets.
Yet even the military reviews are uninterrupted. and
the highest dignitaries, up to the emperor himself, re-
pair TO them without a cloak. IL must be evident that,
with cold of such intensity, the suferings of the poor
must be dreadful; yet it may be affirmed without cxsg-
geration. that the lower classes, in winter, suffer less IN
Russia than in England. There are placed in various
quarters Of every large town of the empire, public es-
Establishments, heated by large stoves, where every per-
son who pleases may take re(uge.-Traoeis in Russia.

IFrom the Washington Telegraph

There is scarcely a doubt that the little band OF insur-
gents and Texan sympathisers now in possession of Mat
amoras will increase in numbers, and eventually con-
cure and possess a large portion of Northern Mexico.
The formation of State governments and their annexa-
ton to the United States are steps scarcely less likely TO
be taken. The time required for the achievement OF all
this will not prove long. An unhappy people IN poverty
and anarchy will oppose but little objection 10 it. They
may not for a time prove very faithful or desirable citi-
zens. but they will generally aequisce in a resort to their
only refuge, and in a few years will begin to appreciate
the privileges that are not now desirable because OF their
inability to comprehend them and realize their blessings.
Other nations subdue, conquer, degrade, and tax their
weaker adversaries. We annex, elevate, protect, and
fraternize with them. Happy for Mexico will all this
prove.
While such is the progress of things in Northern Mex
leo. we are informed, by dates from the city of Mexico
TO the 10Th of October, that the British minister had had
an official interview with President Arista, and demand.
ed a final answer TO Lord Palmerslon's dispatches
formerly referred to, relative to the debts Of Mexico
and it is reported that, unless the answer is satisfactory
all the Mexican ports will he blockaded. To this the
central government has-nothing to reply. Without pow.
er. without money, without the confidence of the people
or of anybody else, what can it do! Shall it place iIsel
under the protection of England-England that ever
gives @ such protection as vultures give TO lambsN The
United States will have a part to enact there. and an I'm
portant part, too. 1t is alike important to Mexico anC
to our government that that country shall not become
subject to any European crown; and well would II bc
for us If our minister were prepared to act with prompt
ness, firmness. decision. courage, and sa9acity. Per
haps he viii do 50. We earnestly hope it. The mo
ment is critical, and stupendous results are now depend

AgricuIture i'm california.

At the Mission Of Carmel, near Monterey, and in that
vicinity, considerable attention has been paid To agricul-
ture during the present season, and the crops are highly
promising. The fruit crop in Los Angeles this season
is very abundant, the peach and pear orchards being
com pletely oveTburdened by the immense loads of fruit
with which their branches are covered. The vineyards
also ae extremely prolific, and will yield a handsome
revenue to their owners, by the sale of fresh fruit and
in wine. There is q fine field for the agriculturist in
that section of the country, as land is to be had on the
most reasonable terms, improved and unimproved. Not
withstanding the revenue from the cultivated estates is
so great aud almost certain, several gentlemen, who
have already accumulated handsome fortunes, are ready
to dispose of their estates. The very extensive property
of Mr.. Woliskill, one Of the best establishments in the
Puebla, in the most perfect order, has been offered for
the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, as we are in
formed. The yearly revenue from the producte can
scarcely be less than ten thousand dollars per annum,
under proper management. The lands at the Mission,
about seven miles from the Puebla, once extensively Gull
tivated under the superintendent of the Priests, are
now again likely to produce bountilully. Several enter
prising Americans have already located claims upon
them, with the intention of bringing them under a high
state of cultivation, and they will soon TEEN with the
almost spontaneous productions of the fruitful soil
fila California.

Female II. DIS.

The Central Medical College, Of Rochester, N. Y,
Of Mrs. l. N. Fowler, who from her spirit OF education
her scientific and medical atEainments, has obtained a
wide spread popularity.
The time is not far distant when every Medical IDslis
tninon IN the country. will be compelled 10 organize a
Female Department, TO sustain itself. As much as
people may sheer at "Woman's Rights" IN a general
sense there Is nothing in the idea Of Female Physician to
excite the prejudice Of the most obstinate conservative"
IN Cbristendom. The sex have suffered uniol devils for
the want Of them, and when they shall become so numer-
Gus as TO share equally the labors Of their brethren Of
the masculine gender, a marked improvement will be
observablein the physical condition of woman. As mid
wives, the field should be left to them exclusively. II is
TO be hoped that Mrs. Fowler will turn out scores OF
thoroughly educated female doctors, every year, during

Thu FIRE ANNIHILAToR.-Mr. Barnum, in a card
which we noticed in the New York papers, Of the Both
ultimO, says one thousand of the machines have been
completed, but owing to the charges being larger than
the English. they will require more time to dry. He
speaks confidently Of the success Of the enterprise, and
says a test will be given in a short time. In the mean
time, he says, the persons who engaged in it are gentle
men, whose responsibility and integrity are undoubted.
who did not risk their reputation nor their money in this
enterprise until they had thoroughly Investigated its
claims, personally in this country, and through their
agents IN England, and they never have taken. and
never will take, a shilling for machines or territorial
rights, without binding themselves TO refund every far
thing received, if the public demonstration. or test, is
not perfectly successful.

his enterprise, and shall wait with anxiety for the proof.

Death by Poison.

Mrs. Mary Saunders, Of Mt. Pleasant, in this State,
came to her death on the 18th ultimo, by taking a dose
OF ~SfrychRia through mistake for that of morPhia, from a
clerk in a drug store in that place. This appears to be
the second case Of the kind that has occurred at Tat
place or vicinity since our acquaintance with Mount
Pleasant, and we understand the poison was obtained
each time from a clerk. There must be a ~palpable
neglect or consnmmate ignorance on the part of the
druggist or his clerks, or certainly such mistakes would
not occur. When children pay with edge tools they
will cut themselves occasionally so it is with people
when they use the most deadly Poisons IN the three:fold
Kingdom Of nature as medicines, they must expect fire.
