AN INCIDENT OF THE Wharf.-The correspOn-
dent of the London Times writing from Sebas-
topol, narrates the followngincdent: A flag of
truce went across in boat few days ago, to
within a short distance of Fort Constantine, to
give up Greek Colonel in the Russian service
named Mento, who commanded battalion Mt
Balaklava when the Allies arrived in the Cri-
mea, and has been prisoner ever since. He is
n man Of advanced age, and it was resolved to
let him rejoin his family, which was sent over
to the Russian lines some time ago. On the oc-
casion of his liberation, q touching incident oc-
Cured Conversng with the English officers
who accompanied him, the old Colonel express
ed his hope that he should find the greater part
of his family alive and well, though he had
heard from them but once since their separation.
His son, he said, he had no expectation of see
ing again. He was q naval officer serving in
Sebastopol during the seige, and he knew too
well how dreadfully the Russian navy had suf-
fered to cherish hope that his child had been
spared. The British flag of truce approached
the shore, and was met by Russian boat, when
those with whom the Colonel had just been con-
versing were surprised and affected to see him
clasped in the arms Of the lieutenant command
ing. The son. already mourned as dead, had
been sent, either accidentally, or, more proba-
bly,, from delicate kindness on the part of our
brave antagonists, to receive his father from
captivity.
EFFEcTs OF ILLEGAL Vor1NG-An Irishman
named Carney, alias Powers was killed by VIM.
Miller at Vincennes, Indiana on Tuesday. There
was an election for town officers, and Carney had
voted in three Of the wards swearing in his vote at
each place, and was about to vote in the fourth
ward when Miller challenged his vote. Some
angry words ensued, in which Carney gave Miller
the lie, thrusting at the same time his fist in the
face of the latter, if to strike, when Miller stuck
him with knife in the right side Of the abdomen,
cutting one Of the main arteries, and causing his
death in FIVE minutes Miller's friends state that
he is ready to give himself up to justice.-Louis-
viNe Journal, 18th uh.

LAST IsLASD.-We hear it mentioned that
Messrs. Hall & Hildreth, proprietors Of the st.
Charles, New Orleans, contemplate erecting a
large and spacious Hotel, on Last L,innd. An
establishment Of this kind is much needed, and
would pay handsome percentage, if properly
attended to. Last Island, is environed by one
Of the most beautiful beaches anywhere to be
found in the whole Southern Coast. Oysters
and fish Of all kinds, abound in the greatest
plenty. Last Island is situated about sixty
miles from the present terminus Of the Opelou-
sas Railroad.

acquiring freedom, and more particularly denied
the use Of any species Of firearms. Now, if this
is not tyrannical oppression, what is? Can anyone
wonder that feel indignant towards the Popes
government?
The great devotion Of these poor ignorant people
is certainly beautiful in ITSELF and unobectionable
in most instances. They seem to adore the Virgin
Mary more than our Saviour, for you cannot look
in any direction, in any window, at the corner of
any street, without seeing picture Of her; only
sometimes represented with the infant Saviour
indeed you will find the same thing in every house.
even the poorest hovel. In every gallery of paint
ings, Madonnas are SO common that you rather
shun them than otherwise. This feature of their
devotions think is carried to too great extent,
though as general rule think the Protestants as
class might learn much from the Catholics that
would be good for their souls. While the latter
are perfectly devoted to their church and its prin-
ciples, the former are too apt to be Indifferent and
treat matters concerning their church with too
much levity, and carelessness, not deeming it
worthy of second thought whether that is provi-
ded for or not.
Well, God help this poor country, and soon may
the light of freedom be shed throughout the land
really pity the Italians for it must be SO intoler-
able to be subjected as they to the rule of for
eisn soldery with all the sweet delights of liberty

Let the American citizen but reflect that during

who visited our shores with the view of entangling
our Government with the revolutionary movements
of Europe, dictated to his countrymen and the
German population Of the United States to support
the Democratic nominee for the Presidency as the
one which would be the more apt to favor his views
of arriving at the summit Of his ambton-that of
ruler Of Hungary, and head of the revolutionary
movement Of Europe. But thanks to the dying
injunctons Of Clay Webster, and other patriotic
Americans our country was saved from being en-
shared in the infamous policy of foreign interven

w ASH TUB!
PATENTED MOVER Der Sth. 1853.

TT can be established by reliable persons who
4 have used WisSER's TUB, that it is the best
and most convenient machinery for
Z
that was ever invented. This valuable inven-
ton has been III use nearly two years, and is
now extensively employed in nearly every
State in the Union. 1t is equally well adapted
to the washing of the largest as well as the
smallest fabcics. Among the leading estab-
lishments Of the county where it is used, may
be mentioned the HOWA ARD AND BROAD
WAY HOTELS, New York. Reference can
also b. had at Canton, Nurwalk and Ashland,
where it is generally employed.

ed the right OF Ashland County, is now pre-
pared to furnish - on short notice.
Directions for Using the Tub.
Place half a dozen of shirts, or equal, in tbs
tub with the heated water and soap-wrist
bands and collars, should be well soaped The
water should cover the follower; bear no
weight on the follower, but turn it easily with
a stmi-circular movement: rub the clothes
through two suds and the washing is done.
