The only Safe a0hich. in epery instance,
preserved The entire contents at
the late Ertensiue Fires.
A T THE BURNING OF THE ARTIZAN
n BUILDINGS, April 10Th, and IN the great
fire in Market Street, May 1st, 1856, the gen.
une HERRING SAFE preserved The Jewery of
George w. Simms g. Bro Books, Papers &C.
OF Fisher & Bro. and Edward Semans & Co.,
after remaining exposed in the burning ruins
for nearly Forty Hours, and proving conclu-
sively what we have always claimed for
ihem, their great superiority over all securi-
ties known.
In these fires, the HERRING'S SAFE,
standing side by side with those advertised
as "waranled 10 stand 10 per cent more fire
than Herring's," came forth the acknowledg
ed victor, not only preserving their contents
in excellent order, but being themselves ia
condition 10 go through another ordeal, while
the bcasted "Salemanders" of other makers
were badly used up in every instance, and
IN some cases,heir entire contents completely
destroyed.
To The public we would simply say, that,
during The fourteen years of the Herrin2's
Safe has been before them, more than two
hundred have passed through accidental fires
without The occurrence of single loss.
We would, therefore, caution purchasers
against the Misrepresentation of interested
parties. The Herring's Patent is the only
Fne-proof Safe made in this city which is
projected by Potent Right, and we will
guarantee il to resist more than double the
amount of heat of any other Safe now known

Monroe and Fairfield.

These noble counties have done most
gallantly at the late election, and have
eclipsed all their former glories. They
have taken their place at the head of the
Democratic Column. Monroe, which gave
last year only four hundred majority for
Medill, is now Democratic by one thou
sand five hundred and twenty-a gain oi
more than one Thousand. In Fairfield,
where Medill had but two hundred last
year, the majority for our State Ticket is
nearly one thousand five hundred-a gain
of one thousand three hundred Had all
the Democratic counties done as well, Ohio
would have been triumphantly redeemed
ut this election. Monroe and Fairfield
promise together four thousand for Bu-
chanan next month.-Cin. Enquirer.

New ORLEANS, Oct. 22.-The steamer
Tennessee brings laicr aud important ad-
vices from Nicaragua in regard to the
position of President Walker. -
Walker, finding the enemy advancing
on Massaya. withdrew his small force
there and the enemy, 1000 strong, occu-
pied that place. Walker left a small force
at Granoda, end advanced towards Mas
saya, with oae thousand men, an nat the
enemy Oh the l .th, near he tity, repuls-
ing them and Or wing them back on Mas
saya, where the battle lasted until mid
night! At daylight 4 courier arrived
stating that l., 4G0 natives and Guatama-
iaus were besicging Granada. Walker
arrived at the heights surrounding the
city on the morning Of the 18th, and
found the city barricaded by the whole
force of the enemy. saa v,
He immediately charged and drove
them from their posts, capturing the COM
nanders, with all their field-pieces, and
routing them from the city with great
slaughter. The total loss of the enemy
in killed and wounded was LOO. Wal.
ker's loss was only l6 killed and 30
wounded.
Walker was 10 march Immediately OH
| Massarga and Leon. His troops were
in the highest spirits. The citizens of
Granada had held the Government build
ings for twenty-five hours, when Walker
arrived to their rescue.
Gen. Walker was asked when, if ever,
he intended to return home, to the United
States? Never" said the greater fill
buster, Never, until l can return by
land"
The steamer Tennessee, from New York,
with 2O5 recruits, (otficers included) for
Gen. Walkers army, arrived at San Juan
del Norte, Greytown, on the 22d ult. !.

The Pole Raising.

On Friday last, the Democratic citizens
of center township, raised hickory pole
in front of onr Office, measuring 206 feet,
but unfortunately after it was up about a
half hour, and while the derrick was being,
/ lowered, il (thc derrick was suffered to
fall against the pole, by which II feet
which was of light pine and very slender
was broken from the top. Bat for this
misfortune wc would have had the tallest
pole in the county
The Democracy however, who arc never
discouraged or dsbeartened by unavoil-
able accidents, Immediately sent for the
Woodsfe!d Brass Band, and notified some
of our Democratic young ladies that their
attendance was requested to present the
splendid Banner prepared for the pole
Nineteen young ladies appeared or the
ground two as committee on behalf
of the Democratic ladies of Center town
ship to present the flag, aud the sew
enteen to represent the seventeen townships
of this county, which gave an oyerwhel-
ming majority for the democracy at the
recent election. After a few remarks BY
J. r NORRIS, returning the thanks of
the Democracy for the Banner, and sew
eral national airs from the Band, all par
ties dispersed well pleased with the day S
performance The democrats went home
with the determination to come up to the
election on Tuesday the 4th day Of No
vember, and roll up q majority of l75 in
in old Center, and thereby do their part
towards making the 100 majority prom
ised for this county to Buck and Breck.
Some of the incidents of the day are
worthy of notice. One was, that for the
first time since the election we saw smile
on the countenance OF the Fremonsters,
when the top of our pole was broken OF
by the falling of the derrick. The reco!-
lection of the 4th, however, soon caused
their phizZes to resume their wunted length.
Another incident Of the day, and one
(which caused much merriuent among the
boys, was the parading of a long bearded
goat in the streets, to represent the wool
/ ly horse andidate, who never shaves
Another incident got up by the woolly
horse party, but for what reason we ars
at loss to know, was the carrying of F;
banner in the streets by some Fremont
boys, representing Lawrence and !brigh
in the Congressional race-Albright way
ahead! They had no doubt forgotten o.
did not know, that Lawrence WAS elccteE
by over 1900 majority. Perhaps, find
ing the Journal silent upon the subject
they supposed the election was yet tt
