THE VOICE OF A PATRIoT.-The editor of the
State Journal has seen a letter from Jeremiah
Rose, of Burlington, Iowa, who is now ninety
nine years Of age, in which he says, after pledg-
ing that State for Buchanan and Breckenridge
"For my own part, have but one course to
pursue. / am now near one hundred years DID,;
have fought in all the early battels of my coun-
try under the great Washington and other dis
tinguished American generals, and in voting
have always voted the democratic ticket. Ivo-
ted twice for Gen. Washington, twice for Thos
Jefferson, twice for James Madison, twice for
James Monroe, three times for Gen. Andrew
Jackson, the greatest man of the nineteenth
century, twice for Martin Van Buren, once for
James X. Polk, once for Lewis Cass, once for
Franklin Pierce, and if God spares my life until
November, will vote for James Buchanan, Of

DoN'T DANCE.-A plain unlettered man from
the back country in the State of Alabama, went
to Tuscaloosa, and on the Sabbath went early
to church. He had been accustomed to attend
meetings in school houses and private dwellings
where each one appropriated to himself the first
seat he found unoccupied. He selected con-
venient slip, and awaited patiently the assem-
bling of the congregation. Presently the mu-
sic of a full toned organ bursted upon his aston
ear; he had never heard one before At the
same time the gentleman who owned the slip
came up the aisle, with his lady leaning upon
his arm. AS he approached the door of the slip
he motioned for the countryman to come out,
in order to give place to the lady. This move
ment, the countryman did not comprehend, and
from the situation of the gentleman and the Ia
dy, associated as it was in his mind with the mu-
sic, he Immediately concluded that cotillion,
or French contra-dance was intended. Rising
partly from his seat he said to the gentleman,
who was still beckoning to him-"excuse me
sir-excuse me, if you please don't dance"

NOVEL SCENE IN FRENCH THEATER-Tbe Pa
ris correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune
gives the following account of an amusing
scene which occurred during the representation
of play recently The piece was successful
one, and, in one of the scenes, lambs played an
important part. To give greater effect the ma
chinist determined to procure train of the
genuine article, instead of using dumb repre-
sentatives. The animals were trained so that
they played their part to charm in the rehear-
sails, and at the first performance they formed
an exquisitely beautiful group around their cor
ydon, whom they saluted with tuneful bleatings.
The theater shook to its foundation with loud
applause. The applause continued, and the
sheep became frightened and popped into the
stage boxes, then over the foot lights into the
orchestra-and, of course, the whole flock fol-
lowed the leaders, The ladies in the boxes
shrieked, the orchestra whooped and halloed to
prevent the sheep from tumbling on their vio-
Inns, the house roared. The supernumeraries
were thrown off after them, but it was an hour
before they were caught. The next day they
were sent to the shambles.

QUALIFICATIONS OF MISSISSIPPI EDToR.-
The Yazoo (Mss.) American Banner is owned
by Mrs. Harriet N. Prewett. This lady has
secured the services of political editor, u
whom she thus announces:
"We have the pleasure of announcing to the

can, who has been connected with the Mlssls,
sippi press for fourteen years, has been engaged
to take charge of the political department OF

his man every time. He brings into the politi-
cal canvass, besides general stock of political
information and zeal for the cause, two bowie
knives, one of ParsOn Beecher's Sharps rifles,
two six shooters, and sundry canes and shille-
ahs, not to speak of two pair of brass knuckles
We bespeak for Mr.. Smith cordial reception
by the press-gang."

Gold and silver In the world.

A Russian counsellor of state has recently
published work styled Gold & Silver; their or
gin, and the amount extracted from all the coun-
tries of the known world, from the most remote
times, till the year 1856" The following par
ticulars are interesting:
"The amount of gold and silver annually ta-
ken from the mines of Europe, including Russia,
is 26,S05 kilogrammes of the former (27-l0 lbs.
to the klogramme,) and l6l ,444 kilogrammes
of the latter, valued together at $25 ,O00
"In America, including California, the annual
product is 169,834 kilogrammes of gold, and
735, ,180 kilogrammes of silver, worth, in all,
SAG, 100000.
'In Asia, the annual product is 2,700 kilo-
grammes of gold, and 10000 of silver, amount
ing in value to $22,000,000.
"In Africa, no silver mines are wrought, and
only 1920 killogrammes of gold are produced
valued at $2,000,000.
Australia, too, yields no silver, but the an
nual product of gold amounts to 290,260 kilo-
grammes valued at $200,000,000.
"Sum total in all parts of the world, SIC, ,199
kilogrammes of gold, and ,026, 624 kilogrammes
of silver valued together at 1888 000 900 francs
or over $780,, ,0000 900. The whole sum extract
ed from the earliest times up to the present, will
amount to Is, ,3l4,659 kilogrammes of gold; and
254, ,4l0, ITO of silver, worth altogether, some
thing more than $20536, 900, ,000."
The annual productions of the precious met.
ais at the present time is enormous. At the
present rate, we gain more in fifty years thar
our ancestors did in fifty centuries The annu
al increase of gold and silver for the period Of
three years ending in 1851, more than doubled
that of any previous year, amounting to COL,
100000 francs; and in the last four years, end
ing in 1866, it has increased l50 per cent, and
now amounts to 1892 2,63l ,65l francs, or $4ls'
526, $50.
| America has furnished more gold and silver
double the amount-than Europe, Africa, ant
Australia put together, and only $20,00O,OO(
less than Asia has furnished since the beginning
of the world.

New PLAN TO PUT Down BANDTTT IN MEXICO.
President Commonfort appears to be in earn
est in his endeavors to carry on the work of re-
form in Mexico and very practical in the meas
ures which he adopts for this purpose. Aware
that the robbers upon the road from Vera Cruz
to Mexico can only carry on their nefarious bus
iness because the inhabitants along the route
sympathise with and shelter them, he has de-
termined to introduce, as last resource a new
population in those districts He is therefore
about to establish four colonies of foreign i'm
migrants on the road between Jalapa and Vera
Cruz, each to have 10000 acres of fertile soil
for cultivation, and 900 for sites for villages
French, Germans and Americans will probably
compose their inhabitants, and they will be al
lowed to introduce everything they require for
their wants through the custom honse free OF
duty. Agents are about to be dispatched to the
United States to obtain immigrants. Such a
population would oppose and drive out banditti
from among them so that before long the road
from the capital to the coast can be passed over
in security.

"THE PERus OF THE SEA.''2The New York
Herald, of July lst, publishes list of the ma
rine disasters reported to underwriters from
JAN 1st to July lst, 1856, including vessels lost
and damaged, with estimates of loss of freight
and cargo. The cases of total loss of vessel and
cargo are distinguished by an asterisk; the
names of those vessels which went forth upon
the ocean and were never heard of more, are
printed in italics The list is frightful occu-
pying more than column and half of the
Herald-each vessel in line; and still, as we
perceive, the list is far from complete. The ca
ses of total loss of vessel and cargo were 80;
vessels sailed and never heard ofafterwards, IL;
whole number of vessels suffering total or par
tial loss 357 in addition to these, 218 other
vessels of all classes were damaged in hulls,
spars and rigging The total loss of the six
months, including damage to cargoes and yes
sells arriving after long bosterous passages, is
set down by the Herald at SIS ,890,500 (nearly
sixteen million of dollars,) an amount said to
be without parallel in our commercial history.

ALL RIGHT IN KENTUCKY.-The Louisville
Times of the 18th, assures us that Kentucky is
as safe for Buchanan and Breckinridge, as either
Mississippi or Alabama.
The Louisville Courier, a Wing paper, thus
speaks in its issue of the 14th of the prospects
in Kentucky:
"If the elections were held to-day, Buchan-
ans majority in Kentucky would probably
reach ten thousand; but when the fact becomes,
as it will, more and more clear that Buchanan
is the only chance to defeatJ. G. Fremont, there
will, we predict, be general stampede, and we
shall not be surprised if his majority in Ken
lucky reaches double or treble or even quadru-
pie that number. We speak seriously, deduc-
ing effect from cause"
