This force is doing good service in arrestng dis

Try Il Again. !.


Among the host OF National Wings that are
everywhere giving their influence 10 the support
Of Buchanan and Breckenridge, we notice the
names of Hon. Thomas Ewing and Hooking
Hunter, Eeq., both Of Lancaster, Ohio, Hon.
James Stanberry, Of Newark, Ohio, and many
others in that section Of Ohio that we are
well acquainted with, having passed a large
portion Of our life there. e.-Gazettc Of Tuesday.
The paragraph from which the above is ex-
tracted Is decidedly rich. Unfortunately for
y, others happen to be acquainted in Ohio as
well as himself, and happen to know that the
above is whopper. Hon. Thomas Ewing, who
has probably been abused more BY the Locofoco
orators and newspapers than any man in Ohio, is
now an excellent man Mr.. Ewing has author
lied the Cincinnati Gazette to say that under no
circumstances will he vote for Buck. Mr.. Hun
ter never has been a politician has taken
an active part on any side, and we venture he
has now made no declaration in favorof the pro-
slavery party. Who is Hon. James Stanberry
Of Newark, Ohio, that the Gazette is SO well ac-
quainted WITH and who has declared in favor of
Bucks From residence of over thirty years
in Newark, Ohio" we assert that no such man
has lived in Newark, Oh,o," within that time.
But the Gazette says further:
With Mr.. Stanberry we were less acquainted
than with the two former gentlemen. He is
widely known, however, as lawyer, and as
having been whig member of Congress from
the Licking district.
Then you mean the Hon. W. Stanley who
was member of Congress in 1902? Exact
ly. But he was elected as jackson man!
That, too, You had forgotten, as well as the
name. Now, Col, if you viii turn to the " North
American newspaper, published at Newark,
Ohio" OF the 9th of July, inst, you will find that
Hon. w. Stanley was one of the speakers at
ratification meeting in Newark Ohio" and de
clared himself strongly for Freedom and Fre-
mont!
We suppose Thomas Ewing, Hooking Hunter
and VIM. Stanley know just as much about
the editor Of fthe Gazette as that individual does
about them. But as to the high opinion and
admiration expressed the attachment is proba-
bly, not reciproeated.
We advise the Gazette to lay its next scence
Mt some point where the editor is not acquainted.

large businessin freights and passengers although
only "a miles are completed. The two daily
trains are crowded each way with passengers.
Heavy shipments of Goods, Groceries, Machine

titles of produce and live stock arriving for this

large receipts of grain. 81

Ma. EDIroR:

competition in this line; have in this way call

through your paper, make known the necessity

best opening for business now in your growing

B Washington and Main streets were yes

bition. A woman-one of the degraded out
casts of society-in state Of intoxication, had
been guilty of gross and disorderly conduct.
Two of the city police arrested her, and started
for Justice Harris office. She didn't want to
see the squire, and was opposed to the proceeding
generally. The novel spectacle, and the exhi,
bitions of ground and lafty tumbling, drew a
good deal of attention. The last We saw of the
party, the lady was upon dray, headed towards
the Justices Office, from whence she was sent

be very fine, except the one of old Buck, which
is about ten years too old, owing to its having

Mr.. BUCHANAN AND TIE Save PowER-Mr.
Buchanan vas last week invited to be present at
the closing exercises Of the Normal School, near
Lancaster Pa, to address the students but he
declined, and gave as reason for SO doing, that
the students had, sometime before, held an in
dignation meeting, at which they denounced, in
tho most caustic language. the dastardly and
cowardly attack of the assassin Brooks upon
Senator Sumner, and that his appearance at the
school under these circumstances, might be mis-
construed by his friends in the South.

above fact, very properly adds sit is surpris-

Mr.. TOWNSEND GLovxR, FROM the Patent VI

ged in examining and making accurate drawing
Of all the Insects which attack vegetation In this
| region of country. Ne esiover is saidsto be q

He informs us that his intention Is to prepare
drawings for instance, ofa stalk OF wheat upon
which viii be represented the grub at the root
the worm at the joint, &C., the various fruits
with the insects that attack them. These draw
ings will be engraved and distributed among ag
riculturalists, for the purpose of eliciting from
practical men the best System Of warfare upon
these enemies of the vegetable kingdom. The
intelligence, thus elected is to be disseminated
through the medium of the agricultural reports
of the Patent Office. % e ~
II seems to US, that this is practicable plan
and that the labors of Mr.. Glover will result in
good. The great agricultural interest of the
country has received, thus far, very little atsen-
ton at the hands of the Government, far less
than 1t deserved. sf o4-.a ss - Ss-

upon showing his ignorance; howbeit, the dem

dinary ambition. 1t is always thus-when POM
pous ignorance and superfciality would pass
current for learning, the lion skin is never put
on so carefully but that some portion Of the ass
is visible. The vaingorions editor of the Ga
zette would impress upon the people of the
"rural districts" the fact that he was an inti-
mate acquaintance of certain distinguished gen.
tlemen in Ohio. And 10, he does not know their
names! 1t seems he referred to James r. Stan

He never had seat in Congress. He lives at

IT A North Carolina journal invited the
National Intelligencer to support Buchanan, to
which that Straight Wing paper responds as fol-
lows
Perhaps it may be found that sense Of
duty as we'll asa feeling Of prejudice may pre-
vent us from going all the length of that Dem
ocratic platform upon which our North Carolina
friend finds it so easy to stand. And, moreover,
if the present is fearful hour, by whom, we
would ask, has it been brought upon us? This
we feel is not the time for reproach or crimina-
ton. Infinitely sooner would We heal wound
than open one. But il, in place of the unity
and concord which prevailed in the country
three years ago, the heart of the patriot is now
panied by acts Of violence, his ear stunned by
words of fierce and angry strife, and the Union
itself straining its fastenings, can the Democrat
c party be acquitted of its full share Of respon-
sibility in the organization Of this altered state
of sentiment throughout the country? Can our
North Carolina friend say that his withers are
unwrong! With our we'll known views respec-
ting the impolicy of the recent Congressional
legislation which has been the occasion of all the
strife that now divides the Northern and South.
ern portion Of the Union, it could hardly be
expected Of us to s.take ground ? with very great
alaerity by ehe side Of those whom we hold to
be greatly II not mainly INSTRUMENTAL in bringing
about the present unhappy state Of affairs.
