The following method Of obtaining
cool water has been found to work
well, and those who cannot readily
procure ice should give it a trial:
To MAKE WATER Com FOR SUM
MER--Let the jar, or pitcher or ves-
sci used for water, be surrounded
with one or more folds OF coarse cot
ton, to be constantly wet. The
evaporation Of the water will carry
off the heat from the inside. and ro-
duce it to a freezing point. In India
and other tropical regions, where ice
cannot be procured this is common.

no one who can render greater aid

E. r. EcKLEY, the nominee for
Lieut.. Governor, as member Of the
Senate from Carroll county, has dis
played talent, industry and tact 10 a
superior degree, and is warmly re-
commended to the support Of the
Wings Of the State. WooDs, Bliss
and SrANBERY have filled the posi-
tons for which they are again candi-
dates with advantage TO the State
and real honor to themselves
HENRY SrANBERY has filled the Of
fee of Attorney General since the
winter of 1856, when the Office
was created, till last winter when his
term expired and Gov. Wood aP-
pointed Mccormick. Every one
knows that JOHN WooDs makes a
first rate Auditor, and that the inter-
ests of the State cannot be better
served than by continuing him at the
post. A. A. Bliss is the present
Treasurer. He has been in the Of
fee long enough to become thor
oughly acquainted with its duties
and is discharging them to the ac-
ceptation of all. No changeis called
for and none will be made. OfEARL
BILL, candidate for Secretary Of
State, we know but little, but that
little convinces us that the selection
is very judicious one-enough that
he takes the place Of the Abolitionist
King, the present "barter and trade"
occupant. The nominees Tor Board
Of Public Works are peculiarly well
qualified TO Discharge the duties ap-
pertaining to the Office. They all
reside near the works they are TO
superiniend, and have a proper un-
dsrstanding Of their correct manage
ment. That this is true Of john Ma
DEIRA many Of our citizens know.
The candidates for Supreme Judges
have all been more or less prominent
Iy before the people Of the State.
CoNvERs has twice before been sup
ported by the Wings in the Legisla-
ture for Judge of the present Su-
preme Court. ANDREWS, Of Cleve-
land, was the first choice of the
Wings Of that section. He is a law
yer OF fine requirements and exten-
sive reputation in the North. GEO.
B. WAY it will be recollected was a
member of the Legislature some
years ago, and acquired the repula-
ton of a gentleman Of rare abilities.
Since then he has filled the position
Of President Judge Of his district,
we believe. ODLIN, of Dayton. ranks
among the first OF the able men OF
Ihe Miami Valley. He will bring TO
The bench an enviable reputation for
egal research and acumen, and we
loubt not will well sustain it. Gin

THE CoUNT AND COUNTESS DEMBNsKI--The Eve
ming Post of New York says that the Count Dembnsk
who TO this country in July last Is now honestly
and nobly supporting himself by selling cigars in Nassau
street, in that city His wife, the young and beautiful
Countess Dembnsk who born the Princess OF Gar
toriska, is with him. The Post says
sit is somewhat singular that while foreigners so
much ressed fashionable circles this lovely
and accom- pished young should not receive atte
ton whatever" ;.
The Courier and Enquirer, commenting on the matter
adds
1.-THE Count though young man, was among the most
effective devoted defenders Of his country in her late
ugge and sacrificed everythnH-rank, position, fortune
and EN- his patriotic devotion to her rights He
accomplished practical engineer, able to discharge
country as exile, seeking subsistence for himself and
his family he compelled 10 open cigar shop as the only
feasible method Of accomplishing his purpose. We wish
that of railroad other corporations that have
need of such services could give hi an engagement where
his duties would be congenial to his tastes but If
This cannot be- hope, all events, that he will be
ubunda ntly successful in selling cigars"
