Are You coming TO the next HEarFi-
SON Comfy Fair?

~ have nothing to take" is the frequent an
swer to the question at the head of this para
graph. Look around you and see whether you
have not so netting "to take" before you answer
so positively. Have you no horse, mare, colt,
mule, bull, steer, COW, calf sheep, lamb, hog,
pig, chicken, turkey, pea fowl, or any thing else
in the live stock line? Have you no threshing-
machine, mower, reaper, plow, harrow, cultiya-
tor, hay rake, wagon, sled, carriage, buggy, cart,
wheel barrow, scythe, cradle, axe, hoe rake,
mattocI, spade, shovel, fork or other machinery
or implement of the kind? Have you no good
crops of corn, wheat oats, rye, barley potatoes,
tobacco, apples, peaches, pears, plums, ounces
or any thing else in this line? Have you nc
pumpkins, squashcs, gourds, MELONS, beets, on
ions radishcs, turnips, parsnips, carrots, cucum-
bers, cabbages tomatoes peas, beans, or other
garden vegetables? Cannot your good wife make
jeans, flannel lnsey, carpet hose, mittens, yarns
quilts, good butter, bread preserves, jeles, &C.
Have YOU none of the above articles that would
be considered meritorious? If not, are you no

that you are making very humiliating conie'

New Athens Fremont Fizzle.

New ATHENS, Aug. %, 1856.
The Fremont meeting advertised to come off
on the goth inst in our place, was complete
failure About one hundred and twenty-five or
thirty assembled at the ringing of the bell, one
fourth of whom were democrats and portion
BOYS. Warfel led off in his usual laundering
style, e,betraying thoughout,his utter ignorance of
the history Of the Government and Of the po-
litical parties, and on being nterrogated by ve-
teran Democrat (who had voted for Thomas
Jefferson) in regard to the object of the meeting
Of the Hartford Convention, caved in and sat
down, glad, no doubt, to escape from the diem
ma.
Lewton now ''pitched in,' but it would be
repeating an oft told tale to follow him through
his torturous harangue. Suffice it, he admitted
that the insurgents" or rather the Massachu-
sets rufIians were the scum of society, and the
'sborder ruffansn were the dregs and asked
with tone of surprise how we could expect
anything else from q meeting Of such material,
and he might have added encouraged by all the
decency, piety and talent Of the country, must

souls be convulsed and placed on the verge o
civil war; with all its horrors, the Union 0

and dregs of Society, North and South. Chris

He, Qewton) said the poor Whste man at th'
North, was inferior in many respects to the ne
gr, Of the South. Well done Lew! If poo
white men after this, can be bamboozled int
the support Of such men, advocating such sen
timents they deserve to be yoked to the Aboli

more, l do not sympathize in any degree with the
objects and creed ofthe particular party that
nominated him, and do not approve of their or
ganization and their tactics. Practically, too,
the contest, isbetween Mr.Buchanan and Col
Fremont. In these circumstances l vote fol
Mr.. Buchanan. He has large experience in
public affairs, his commanding capacity is uni
yersally acknowledged; his life is without a
stain. | am constrained to add that he seems
at this moment, by the concurrence of circum
stances, more completely than any other, to rep
resent that sentiment Of ationality-tolerant
warm and comprehensiye-without which, with
out increase of which, America ceases to be A
merica; and to possess the power and trust the
disposition to restore and keep that place, with
in our borders, and without, for which our hearts
all yearn, which all our interests demand, thro
which and by which alone we may hope to grow
to the true greatness Of nations.

The coming Harrison County Ag-
ricIuEturaI Fair.

The approaching Agricultural Fair, to be held
in Cadiz, on the 8th, 9th, and 10th of October
next, promises to be one of the most attractive
things ofthe kind that has ever occurred in Har
rison county, or perhaps any other county in
the State. There will be vast concourse of
people present, both male and female and the
whole transaction will be at once unique, inter-
esting and instructive.
We are pleased to see such an effort being
made to give fcrce and elegance to this exhibi-
ton. The object is worth the favor of all
people--the advancement of agricultural inter-
ests the development of the resources of the
soil, and the elevation of the business of farm
ing.
1t is we'll to make general holidays on these
occasions-all classes of citizens old and young
male and female, can mingle in the concourst
without being exposed to rudeness and violence
which SO frequently mark public demonstrations
Respectable men and their wives and children
will be present and every thing will be orderly
and agreeable. The exhibition Of implements
and stock will attract the notice of the farmer
and the plowing macth, will present scene al
once beautiful and plcasingly exciting. The
whole proceedings cannot fail to give universa
satisfaction. Thousands will be present and al
will be delighted.
1t will be seen by notice in another column

to enter articles for premiums, come forwar
without delay, and do so. Don't put it offu

Columbus Meeting.

The meeting at Columbus on last Wednesday
was large and enthusiastic About 10000 per-
sons were present. Able addresses were deliv-
cred by Messrs. Scheaf, Long, Harris, of Ky,
Walker, of louisiana Matthews, Ward, Nc
Dowel, Thurman, and ONeil, besides several
in German. The Statesman in speaking of the
meeting says
Altogether, this meeting or rather the Sc
ries of meetings on Wednesday, made up one
of the most gratifying and profitable occasions
for the Democracy, that we have ever known oil
shared in. The speeches from first to last
were of the highest order of eloquence and full
and teemng throughout with truth and ar
gument. If the Democracy of Ohio generally
are as fortunate, in all respects, during the cam
paign, as were we of old Franklin ON Wednes
day, ourm majorityfn the State next November
will be counted by tens of thousands. Mari

Is Col. Fremont a sIavehoIderl

~
In reference to this grave question, about which
the Fremonters seem so disturbed, the Mslina
Examiner explains more directly to the point
than any thing we have seen, as it gives the
names, places and all about it in such way, that
unless distinctly disapproved, will leave the inn
preston upon every one, that Fremont does, so
far as he dare do it, actually hold slaves, in the
right of Jessie at this time, or did SO very re-
centlyl
Verify, this is a pretty predictment for the
ranting freedom screechers to be caught in;
From the Medina (O) Examiner.
We had two good practical Jokes here last
week. Among the recent arrivals from Calior-
MIA was Mrs Noyes-a highly educated and
intelligent lady-the widow ola deceased bank
er at Stockton, Sacramento, and San Francisco.
Her relatives being all old line whigs she was
called upon by several impudent republicans, to
vouch for Mr.. FremOnts popularity in the gol-
den state. But what disappointment met the
inquisitors. Said she, "Fillmore has some
friends in California-Buchanan many, but Ere.
mont none. His license or minors tax in the
Senate. and his Mariposa Swindle in the State
to say nothing of his manifest incompetency has
done the work there. Buchanan will carry Cal
! ifornia.'
Again lady from St. Louis, an acquaint
ance of Fremont recently visited relative o
hers, "a. Failing, ESQ., in this village, who is {
noisy black republican know nothing. She hat
hardly shaken hands all round, when she wa
asked what she knew of Fremont. "Why,'
said she, 81 know him well. He is a good south
erner with us. He owns, or rather Jessie does
(for Fremont is insolvent and cannot own any
thing,) lots Of negro slaUes, fa'med out on M
shares, near 81 Louis, and he is noao hUing on tn
toqges of slave labor AS to his religion know
that while in St. Louis he ranked as Roma
Catholic; "for" said she, "ImyseT hare seen hi1
dozen times 90 to mass, and to the confession an
be sprinIled wjth the holy aOater."
Such is the testimony ofintelligent and disin
terested witnesses. do not myself attach muc
Importance to mans religion, and do not be
lieye Fremont has enough of any kind to hur
him, yet the evidence that he is, or rather was
Roman Catholic is, / think, conclusive. MI
Baker, a young gentleman of considerable posi-
ton here, and a wHIG, has been following up tn
matter, and he has received letters from men
the highest responsibility showing that Fremor
was both a Catholic and Stakeholder; and ths
he only changed his ground when the republ
cans began to talk of him for the Presidency

or Holloways Ointment and Pills, an un-
failing Remedy for Scrofulous Sores.-The eld-
est son of Anthony Barnet, aged IA, Of Calves
ton, Texas was an awful sufferer with scrofu-
lous sores on his limbs, the parents took him to
several doctors, and did all in their power to
alleviate him, but he only became worse. A
sister Of Mr. Barnet who had been cured Of q
bad leg by Holloway's Ointment and Pills took
the child under her protection stating she would
try what effect few weeks residence with her
would do, no sooner had she got him at her own
house, than she tried Holoway's Ointment and
Pills, they soon caused an improved appearance
in the child, and after using them about ten
weeks, every symptom Of his disorder had van
ished like snow before the sun, such IS the
power of these wonderful rcmedies! They
will also cure all disorders of the skin.

Mr. Douglas Report ON the House
Kansas Bill.

On our first page may be found this able re-
port in full. The Washington Union in speak
ing of it says:--It viii be remembered that the
House, some days siuce, on the motion oil MI
Dunn, passed bill in lieu Of the Senate paciti-
cation bill, and sent it into the Senate. Mr..
Dunn's bill was made the subject of written
Report, which was made and read by Mr. Doug
las yesterday. Nothing on the subject oil Kan
sas has before appeared which places the Re-
publicans in 50 inconsistent and indefensible a
position. Mr.. Douglas exposure ofthe objec-
tons to the House bill was so overwhelming
that Mr.. Seward rose and said, that although
there were provisions in the bill which he wo'd
cheerfully vote for, there were others which he
utterly repudiated. Yet this bill, thus emphat-
ically repudiated by Mr. Seward, was adopted
by the republicans and North American Fill
more men in the House as the antagonistic prop
osition to the Senate Pacifcation bill.
The report of Mr.. Douglas will fully explain
the reasons why Mr.. Seward refused to sanction
the House bill We can barely glance at few
of the points made by Mr.. Douglas Report
He shows that according to the boundaries o
Kansas as passed by the House, the jurisdic
ton of the Territory is to extended as far soutl
as 80 deg. 80 min-thus embracing larg,
strip of country dedicated by treaties to tn
Cherokee Indians now occupying it, and there
by violating the stpulations Of those Treaties
They embrace also, large section Of the coun
try purchased from Texas in 1850, lying nortl
of So deg 80 min. and also large body of coun
try now embraced in the Territory of Ne1
Mexico-thus violating the stipulation on whic
the purchase from Texas was made, and nullfy
ing the compromise of 1850 organizing the Tel
ritory of New Mexico. The report shows tina
the House have more than once declared tn
Kansas laws to be null and void but by this bi
they have recognized their validity. 1t show
that the House Bill actually legislates SLAYER
} into the Territory of Kansas until 1858, an
then undertakes to legisiate it out ofthe Terr
tory; and it shows that although the Republ
cans have filed the land with accounts of mu
: ders, robberics and other heinous crimes pc
petrated in Kansas, by this bill they allow q
the offenders to go free. But the full bearing
the report can only be appreciated by readir

The silly story that no Protestant clergyman

that he would give one thousand dollars to thu

manner invited to marry Col. Fremont. Th
