- Arthur's Home Magazine for August
has been received. 1t is q very interesting
number. Since Miss Virginia F. Townsend
has been connected with this magazine, We
think it has been very much improved, and
it was always good. The articles arc al
ways well written, and have good moral
tendency. No parent need fear to put this
Magazine in the hands Of his children, for !,
always has good influence. r
U The Northern Home Magazine for
August has come to hand. This is publish
ed in Portland by Daley & Lufkin, and !,
an excellent periodical. This number con-
tains the portraits and short biographical
notices of the two principal candidates fol
the Presidency = Fremont and Buchanan
The people will do we'll to encourage thu
Magazine, for, beside being n home produc
ton, it is really worth their patronage.

done to prevent tho eloquent champion o

hard during that night and at intervals dur
ing the next day. On Wednesday night
the wind, which had been before prett,
strong, blow furiously from tho Fast, AM
the rain fell In torrents. We write thi
Thursday morning, and tho violence Of tn
storm has not abated. We expect to heal
that much damage has been done to tn
Shipping on the coast, and that the farmer
have suffered badly by tho prostitution Q
: their corn and grain crops.
AS WE NIGHT EXPECT, The Anti-slaycr
Standard, Garrisonian, is out in bitter hos
tility to the Republican party. In its lead
ing article Of its last issue 10 an extract of ,
letter from "clear sighted Abolitionist il
Massachusetts," who says that tho. success
of the Republicans will in Its banumbinl
and satisfying influence rctard tho move
mcnts of the slaves redemption" So Par
ker Pillsbury, prominent Garrisonian, il
two speeches has declared his preference 70
the election of Buchanan, because it woul,
tend to promote the anti.Slayery agitation
while that Of Fremont would tend to ccssa
ton it. ...s. ....... ..
