ARRIsoN IN IowA-ATTEMPTED AR
REsT.-We find in the st. Louis Lntelli-
gencer, of Saturday, the following letter
dated Croton, Lee Co., Iowa, July 18th,
relative to Arrison, the supposed muir
derer of Allison and his wife. 1t is
much to be regretted that he was not ar
rested:
GENTS: Our little village has been
distracted with the most intense excite
ment since Saturday evening last, by
the arrival of VIM. H. Arrison, from
Cincinnati, who, it is supposed, caused
the awful, the heart-rending destruction
of Mr.. Allison and wife on the 26th ult.
1t is reported that Arrison left debts
to be collected, and the amount for
warded in draft to this Office. Ex-
pecting to receive the draft he called at
the postoffice and was supplied with the
letters that had arrived, one of them
containing the draft. From information
that had been received, with respect to
Arrison, some of the citizens were pre-
pared to take action towards securing
him. Accordingly quite a number
started in pursuit. They found him at
his fathers, who lives some three miles
from this place; but from some cause
allowed him to escape, which he dA in
the most precipitate manner, nothing
definite being heard from him since.
The conclusion is that he made for
his brothers, living in Appannoose
county, and from thence further west.
From an acquaintance of some ten
years with young Arrison, viii at
tempt a description of him, which you
may use as you think proper. VIM. H.
Arrison is about 5 feet 10 inches high,
rather square rugged, evincing in his
every movement, nerve and action
His hair is black, soft, and glistening;;
piercing black, moving, and disturbed
eyes, though hidden by long and heavy
lashed; nose, properly speaking, Ro-
man, without undue prominence; high
cheek bones, thin lips, and splendid
set of teeth, the incisors, or front teeth
slightly projecting. He walks as though
one leg was a little shorter than the 9TH
er. or the difference may be caused by |
the habit of placing the right foot down

PAs Spring and Summer Medicine, Car
ter's Spanish Mixture stands pre-eminent
above all others. Its singularly eficaeicus ac-
ton on the blood; its Strengthening and vivi-
flying qualities, its tonic action on the Liver;
its tendency to drive all humors to the surface,
thereby cleansing the system according to ma
ture's own prescription; its harmless, and at
the same time extraordinary good effects, and
the number of cures testified to by many Of
the most respectable citizens of Richmond,
Va, and elsewhere, must be conclusive evi
dence that there is no humbug about it.
The trial of single bottle will satisfy the
most sceptical of its benefits.

The Highland Ns,os misunde

@ The Highland Nssos misunder-
stands the position of the Wing party
entirely. if it supposes that they are
going to relinquish either our Whig
name or Wing principles, by supporting
the candidates nominated by the people
at Columbus on the 18th. They sup
port those candidates because the candi-
dates are the best fitted for the respec-
tive Offices, because they truly represent
right opinions upon the Nebraska swim
die, and because they are the only men
that can be elected against the Demo
cratic ticket. They go into this canvass
with these views, and let the mere incl
dent of party name lie dormant for the
present.-Gn. Gazette.

PARCHED & GROUND COFFEE

WHICH they Just received from one of the
most reliable houses in New York, and
which they can recommend as a strictly pure,
better and cheaper article than the coffee COM
monty in use. This Coffee is parched in large
cylinders, retains therefore all its strength,
good favours and oily substances generally
lost in parching coffee in skillets or pans, as
done in our western country. Housekeepers
would do well to try few pounds to get con-
vinced that it is great money and labor sa-

NEW YoRK MoRALs.-We give up
more than our usual space to full sc-
counts Of the immense swindling op-
erations in New York, now daily COM
ing to light, and by which New York
life is illustrated. According to the
Herald, some body has been swindled
to the tune Of over eleven millions Of
dollars, within the last ninety days, by
fraudulent issues of stocks of various
kinds, and it is not surprising that q
panic should follow. Is there any body
in New York who Is honest? Certain
ly the gamblers in stocks make very
poor show in this way-the Vicksburg
gamblers of old we're princes of hon
esty compared with them-and the cor
ruption may be supposed to extend to
all other classes. We observe that a
merchant of very respectable preten-
sions, had just been detected in attempt
ing to fire his store, not for the benefit
of any insurance upon it, but to avoid
exposure on account of inability to de-
liver bales of cotton which he ought to
have had in store, but had not; and for
two weeks or more, one of the Courts
of that city has been occupied in the
trial of a divorce case, the parties to
which belong to Upper Tendum, and in
the course Of which a vast amount Of
depravity and prohigacy was charged
and exhibited against each party. The
crisis of rascality may come after a
while in New York, but we see nothing
like it yet.-Ao. Repu6.

A FACT WORTH KNOwING.-It should
be borne in mild that We have pursued a
course entirely different from the usual mode,
in bringing our medicines to the notice of ply
sicians. The recipes of STABLER'S AN0-
DYNE CHERRY EXPECTORANT and
DIARRHGA CORDIAL have been made
known cOntideHtially, to upwards of five hun
dred medical men, every one Of whom racom-
mend them as highly efficient remedies. The
Expectorant has been pronounced by them to
be an excellent remedy in all cases of coughs,
colds, Group, bronchitis, asthma, and diseases
Of the Lungs and Throat generally. The
Diarrhea Cordial has also received their un-
qualified praise as remedy for diseases of the
bowels, both in children and adults; and the
many cures that these :"good medicines" have
effected, prove the physicians opinion well
founded. They should be kept in every fami
ly, ready for instant use when occasion may
require. See descriptive pamphlets, to be had
gratis of the agents. Price for each, only so
cents, or six bottles for $3.50.

WHAT better memento can be given

that although distance divides, and oceans
may roll between, still we have the image, as

has. He has conscience, faculty of reason
ing, of reckoning, of imagination. He reads,
writes makes speeches, buys and sells, and
manufactures. In fact a man must be an un-
blushing, cold-hearted atheist, as destitute of
truth as of goodness, who can deny the hu.
mainly of the negro. Or, in charity, we can
imagine that bigotry and prejudice may SO
stupefy an ignorant and imbecile understand
ing as to shut out the most selfevident truths.
Allowing that the negro is less intellectual
than the Caucasian, does it follow that he
should be his slave? Should all men of COM
mon minds be the slaves Of tho few superior
minds? Have the more educated, intellectual,
and mentally active people of the free States a
right to enslave and trample on their Southern
brethren, equally endowed by nature, but not
equally favored by circumstances The cham
pions of Slavery must either give an afhrma-
tive answer to these questions, or abandon the
unchristian doctrine of q superiority of race.
We designed in the beginning of this article
to have made some extracts from an article in
the Richmond Enquirer, in which the writer,
quoting Fletcher, Mississippi author at
tempts to show the negro race to be descended
from Cain. But our limits to- day compel us to

The comparison of the total Tree with the
total slave States as regards the native popu-
