men in the county. He claims that he still
occupies the old ground, but that his friends
have left him. The speech is an able one

fuence, and take the old stand point.

A Thief Taker.

We have now on our Office drawer pat
ent lock. which is really q curiosity. t is
so arranged that it cannot be opened by any
one except the individual who sets it, with
out ringing an alarm bell. 1t can be set in
. number of ways, and is not at all liable
TO be put out of order. Itis a capital ar
r,ngemeut for store money drawers, as 1t is
impossible for any one to extract money
from them without ringing the alarm. The
lock has been in use for some time, and II
ia estimated that for every one hundred locks
in use, seventy thieves are taken annually
In q large store the merchant often happens
70 be at some distance from the money draw
er; a voungster, or maybe an oldster, may
have desire to get access to his drawer, ne
pulls the knob, and rings the alarm. This
brings the enraged merchant down on him
in short order, before be has got over the
fright. His denials are of no avail, as the
drawer nerer lies.
ErHRAIM CHALFANr, of Belmont, has the
right to sell these locks in Jefferson, Bel
mont, Monroe and Harrison Counties, Ohio
and Ohio County, Va. He has hundreds oil
references in relation to the utility of the
lock, and an examination OF 1t Will satisfy
any one OF its efficiency.

s.BLUE" WHITE LETTER PAPER--The
practice OF blueing the paper pulp had its
origin in a singular accidental circumstance,
which, not merely as an historical fact. but
as forming an amusing anecdote, is perhaps
worth mentioning. 1t occurred about the
year 1870, at a paper mill belonging to q
Mr. Buttonshaw, whose wife, on the occa-
sion in question, was experimenting the
washing of some linen, when accidentally
she dropped her bag of powdered blue into
the midst of some pulp, in forward state of
preparation, and so great was the fear she
entertained of the mischief she had done
seeing the blue rapidly amalgamated with
the pulp, that all allusion to it was studi
ously avoided, until, ol Mr.. Buttonshaw's in
quiring in great astonishment what it was
that had impaired the peculiar color to the
pulp, his wife, perceiving that no grea
damage had been done, took courage and a
once disclosed the secrets for which she wa:
afterwards rewarded in remarkable manne
by her husband, who being naturally pIcasct
with an advance of so much as four shilling
per bundle, upon submitting the improuet
make to the London market, immediately
purchased costly scarlet oak, (somewha
more congenial TO taste in those days, it i:
presumed, than it would be now,) with mucl
satisfaction to the sharer of his joys.-Hcr

WADE IN THE SEEATE.-The passage on
the floor Of the Senate, in which Mr.. Butler
bore himself so courteously toward Mr.. Will
son, ana in which Mr.. Toombs approved OF
mob law in regulating debate, has been
sketched in our telegraphic dispatches. The
part our Senator took in that debate was
also sketched, but it will be better UNDER
stood by the following more full report of
what he did say:
Mr.. Wade said it was impossible for him
to sit still and hear such principles avowed
as he had heard on this occasion. AS 10 the
fac:s in reference to the assault, he knew
nothing about them, and had nothing to say
on that point. He was here in pretty lean
minority-not more than about one-fifth of
the Senate entertaining opinions similar to
his. But when he heard it stated that on
this floor an assassin-like, cowardly attack
had been made upon a man unarmed and
having no power to defend himself, and that
be had been stricken down and almost nur-
dere !, and then heard Senator avow that
he approved such conduct, it became mat
tertof some interest and Importance to all
the members of this body, and especially the
minority. A brave man could not defend
himself against such an attack as this, and
might be oyerpowered by numbers; but over
powered or not, live or die, will vindicate
the rights of liberty of debate and the ffee-
dom OF discussion SO long as | live. If the
principle announced here is to prevail, let
US come armed for the combat. Although
you are four to one, am here to meet you.
vindication of the rights of debate on this
floor If these are the principles that are
to be approved by majority, and become
part and parcel of the law of Congress, let

On party degradation and party baseness.

murderer of the Irish waiter, and Brooks
the cowardly assassin, who consented to be
the tool of the brigades of slavery; and we
doubt not that next week at Cincinnati t
will endorse all the long list of outrages and
expressions by means ofwhich slavery is to
be extended over the vast and fair plains OF
Kanzas. What may be the next plunge
into the abyss of infamy Heaven only knows,
but if there is lower deep it will not stop
at it, if power and office can be obtained
thereby.

Mr.. ED1roR-On Saturday last we at.
tended May-Party at the Valley School
at present under the superintendent o.
Miss MARY MCLEAN The day was love-
ly one, and the scholars with gay spirit
bright eyes, and faces beaming DER with joy
were in their respective places, anticipating
rare treat. The school assembled at one
O'Clock and happier band we never looked
upon. The exercises began BY singing
some beautiful songs. and deciaiming pieces
appropriate for the occasion. These were
remarkably well executed, snd though very
young they ''acted well their part" After
this number of excellent pieces were read
from the two papers published in the school
one entitled the valley Star"-the name
of the other we did not learn. Then follow
ed the interesting ceremony of crOwn:ng
the "May Queen" This exercise was hap
PLY accomplished by singing songs OF an
appropriate character, which seemed to have
joyful effect upon all present. The school
then adjourned to shady Grove upon Knox
Island when the scenery around, the de-
lightful grove with its carpet of velvet ver-
dure, and the cool, refreshing stream, SEEM
ed to harmonize with the feelings Of that
happy group of children and parents.
The refreshments were then served up,
and having discussed them 10 their sat:sfac-
ton, the school listened attentively to few
brief remarks from w. B. WATKINS, which
was followed by speech from WIN. r.
PueH Esq, in which he delivered some very
happy remarks, and quite number of sug-
gestions in a manner entirely aPropos, which
met with a hearty response from every
parent present, and we doubt not will exert
an influence for good among the scholars
Then followed such sound of juvenile
sports, of hilarity and of enjoyment, as ii is
our lot but seldom to witness. Thus the
hours rolled quickly by in joyous, youthful
glee, and cali went merry as marriage
bell" The afternoon having been thus a.
greeably spent, the school sought their re-
spectiye homes, while the god of day was
gliding the Western horizon, a happier, if
not wiser throng. Such, Mr.. Editor, is
the brief record OF a day, the memory of
which we shall ever gladly cherish.
Yours &c.,
