Plainly Spoken.

The Charleston Nercuy publishes a letter
from a gentleman in Brookeville, Pa, in which
the writer declares that no issue presented by
the South-nothing but the solemn pledges Of
his friends to the people, that he was aAerly op-
posed to the further exfenfion of Slavery
could have ever induced Pennsylvania to cast
her electoral vote vote for Mr.. Buchanan. And,
to-day, there are more than one hundredu thousand
men within her borders who voted for him on
that, and on no other issue.
He predicts that the administration of Mr.
Buchanan must inevitably fail since, if he
favors freedom in Kansas, he must deceive
and ALLEVIATE the South; WHILE if he proves Gre
creant to the issue upon which he alone received
his support from the North, and the solemn
pledges he made by his friends TO the people,
there will be a revolution of feeling in the
ranks of the Northern Democracy that will
shiver that party as a strong man would shiver
an eggshelll Its adhcrants Will not amount in
number to respectable foraging party"
Mr.. Hale adduced proof in the Senate the
other day of the declaration that Buchanan S
friends in this State made use of the Free-Soil
sentiment in the Democratic party, by exhibit
ing huge handbill which had been posted as
as call for meeting in the northern part OF
PENNSYLVANIA of Democrats in favor of "Buck,
Breck and Free Kansas" at which Bigler was
to be chief speaker.

amened through all the stages, but with
out affording any clue exposing the origin
of the disease, or developing any facts
that could suggest appropriate remedies
The first symptoms are manifested in the
staggering motion of the hog, which is suc.
eeeded by violent purging, with spasms.-
The disease then extends to the throat.
which infames and swells until the hog sti-
fles and dies. In this respect the disease
may be said to resemble -erysipelas.-
in fact, as it is from this cause chiefly that
death is produced, the malady seems more
early allied to erysipelas in the throat
than to cholera. Mr.. Graft further. OBJ
serves that young ''stock" hogs are more
easily infected than full grown and fat ones;
and that a hog recovering from this distem-
per may afterward run with impunity
among hundreds of the sick and dying with
out danger of second infection.
Those hog-pens which appear to have
suffered most are located chiefly in and
near the two Miami's or other smaller
streams in this State and Indiana, The
pens of Milford, Deerfeld, at Pease & Co.'s
distillery, near Dayton, have been swept
almost clear of their stock, and there seems
to be no cessation in the ravages of the
fatal distemper. Many have supposed
that the advent of cold weather would de-
velop benifcial results, but no reports re-
specting its influence have yet reached US.

The Hog Distemper.

A fatal malady has prevailed among
hogs in the Ohio Valley during the last SIX
months. 1t is computed that between co.
900 and 10000 have died within hun
dred miles surrounding Cincinnati. The
disease is considered incurable, having
baff1ed the most critical Investigations into
its nature, and as steadily resisted all rem
edal agents. The malady has been va
guely denominated "eholera," from the
failure to discoveries true character, and up
on that principle which a few years ago
prompted mankind to apply the same term
10 all ills which resembled ''cholera' in the
human body, and which they did not com
prehend. The distemper of which we
treat is similar in some of its operations to
cholera, and in others it resembles erysip-
elias.
Mr.. Thomas Gaf proprietor of the eS-
tensive distilleries and hog pens appurte-
nant, at Lawrenceburg, and who lost about
four thousand hogs this season by the raw
ages of the hog distemper, has devoted his
time patiently and indefatigably in seeking
to fathom the profound and alarming mys-
terry, but with Indifferent success. His ex-
aminations, observations, and experiments,
however, have satisfied him that the mala-
dy is infectious.
He at first attributed the disease to the
''still-slop with which his stock was faten-
ed, although he entertained many doubts
from the facts that cattle fed on similar
food were not affected. He, however, in
stituted enquiries among farmers remote
from distileries, and who fed their hogs
on corn exclusively, and found the NOR
tality equally great in their droves. He
then procured four or five perfectly healthy
hogs and enclosed them in .hospital PEN
where many others had died. lie fed
them exclusively on corn and water. In
a few days they sickened and speedily died,
thus proving the infectious character of
the disease. He also observed that hogs
belonging to farmers along the road on
which the dead distempered were hauled
to be thrown away, were swept off by scores
thus confirming his previous test. ri
DR.. Sutton, an eminent physician o'
Lawrenceburg meantime was called 70

. se,.te Committees.

1ho rocept conduct of the o.. s. Senate, in
r,.l;pe up its Committees, is without parallel
in the history Of that body On the mos. i'm
portant Committees there Il not single Repalai-
can. This is sectionalism with vengence!
Nothing in this world, except Locotoco effronte-
ry, would have the impotence to say a word
about sectionalism after such an exhibition as
this: yet the very first time anything is said
about the election of PRESIDENT not sold to
Southern interests exclusively, these same facilc
gentlemen will be shocked at the awful section
alism of such project. The Republicans, after
carrying twelve of the most wealthy and iRfu-
ential Of the free States, might well have claim
ed representation in all the important COM
mittees; and yet these gentlemen, who are
frightened at the bare idea of sechonalism, cut
them of e,direlyi Massachusetts,, Connecticut,
New York. Maine, Ohio, Rhode Island, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Iowa, and Illinois hare no roice in the formation
of these important committeesl Look at this
Record of Sectionalism," and then decide on
whose shoulders rests the odium which the
Egyptian demagogues attempted to heap upon
the Republicans last fail.-look at it, and re-
member it when you hear pretended Demo-
crat talking about sectionalism Had Speaker
Banks made up the House committees after this
fashion, only putting Republicans in the place
of Democrats, what howl would have wound
ed the ears of christendomI The stirring up Of
a menagerie of hungry bears with long pole
would have been music TO it!''
The Ohio State Journal says:-"The Senate
of the United States ballotted for, and elected
these committees. In every point of view they
are 1liberal, and sectional, and if such batch
had been made by Mr.. Banks, they would have
called down upon him the thunders and light
nings of the opposition. The committees of
the Senate, are the eyes and ears Of the Senate.
They make the reports; they decide what shall,
and what shall not, be reported; they shape the
Legislation of the entire body. Let the people
look to where they repose their power, and an
swer whether the minority slaveholding States
shall rule this nation, or whether the majority
non-slaveholding States, shall enter in aud take

The editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer fresh
from his "niggers" in New Orleans has the impu-
dence to proclaim that "Ohio proper" gave a
majority for Buchanan, that aceursed portion of
it which was settled by Yankees having turned
the scale for Fremont. The Ohio State Journal
very properly takes up this New Orleans editor,
imported into Cincinnati to make use of our
great liberty" as Pierce says, to abuse the good
people of our noble State, and gives few facts
about "Ohio proper" and improper. 1t says
that in the entire Reserve, which gave the Re-
publican candidates twenty Thousand majority,
there were but 1850 adult male persons who
could neither read nor write. Throwing out
the county of Hamilton, in which is Cincinnati,
the five strongest Buchanan counties in the State
are Brown, Butler, Fairfield, Holmes and Pike.
The five strongest Fremont counties on the Re-
serve are Ashtabula, Geauga, Lorain, Trumbull
and Lake. Here are the entire number of adults
in these counties who cannot read and write:

that the Republican counties named gave a
larger vote by 1866 than the Democratic eoun-

Extracts from TayIOr's Letters.

ENGLISH CHARAcTERIsT1cs.-In a let
ter to the New York Tribune, Bayard
Taylor says:
''On landing at Dieppe, I had speci-
men of English independence. The night
was warm, and went to the refreshment-
room at the station to get a bottle of lin
onade gazeuse. While it was being open
ed, solid, middle aged Englishman stand
ing near me said: "Do you need more
than bottle, Sir! l want little with
brandy" l shared it with him, and the
bottle having been paid for in advance, l
was moving away, when he called after me.
"How much must l pay?" "Nothing,"
1 answered; "there was more than need
ed, and had already paid for it." "Sir,"
said he fiercely, 81 take nothing from any
body; am in the habit of paying for what
get" "But l." 1 replied am not in the
habit of dealing in soda water" and so
left him: but he Immediately called the
garcon, and satisfied his independence by
paying over again the price of half bot
tie"
The following presents contrast be-
tween the German and the Englishman:
"Of the English one meets in Switzer-
land, one-tenth may prove agreeable ac-
quaintances of Americans and French,
e-fourth; of the Germans, one-half.-
The principle topic of conversation was
not the scenery, but the merits of different
hotels. l heard ruddy Londoner gravely
recommend a certain house because the
tea-cups had handles to them, and another
was delighted with Lucerne because he
had found good confectioner's shop there.
The principal test of a good hotel, howev-
er, as l learned from the confidential re-
concentrations of several gentlemen, was
one of so ludicrous character that re-
gret being unable to state it.
We fell in, nevertheless, with some very
pleasant people, and could not help MOTTO
inc that the English are becoming more
maleable and tractable of late years. Those
who had cast their insular she'll met us
with Continental freedom and cordiality.
One experiment which 1 made turned out
unsuccessfully, to my regret. Going down
the valley of the Aar, I saw approaching
me German gentleman and lady; follow
cd at little distance by an English party.
