SELr-LoADING HAr-CART.-The Scientific

a sey.loading hay.eart, recently invented by
d. II. Thompson of Fitchburs Mass

of mkos applied to cart or wagon, in con-

in such way that the hay will DO raked
up and loaded into the cart or wagon by
merely driving the vehicle or wagon over
the meadow. Truly the march of improve

II Hon. Caleb Lyons. Of Lyonsiale,
n. Y, an old Democrat, comes out from the
BUCCANEERS, in letter to o friend, from
which we take the following extract:
DEAR SR-l most cordially congratulate
you in your noble advocacy Of tho principles
of the Republican party of the nomina-
ton Of Fremont and Dayton; they arc those
Of the early fathers and founders Of the re-
public, and a just reflex Of the sentiments
and sympathics Of the democratic masses Of
Northern New York. In Europe, l was
proud, as an American, of tho achievements
of Col. Fremont, complimcatcd as he was
by tho admiration of Ilumboldt,and the dis
tinguished praise Of ANgo. He, in truth,
unitcs Phrnician love of adventure to
Greek patriotism and Roman courage /;
whose country's glory has been his greatest,
his chieGcst and his only aim. Whether We
view him mid the miasrsa Of Salt Lake
marshes, or the perils Of Sierra Nevada
SHOWS, battling under the Boar flag against
defeated Castro,o treating singly, surround
Cd by hostile 0vascs, tho captive Of an ar
my cohort, or the tenant ola British pris-
oa-in each position no has exhibited pa
triOtism that defed prosscutis, and Srm.,
ness that conquered misfortuns. Iu him our
country would truly realize its high ideal Of
chief magistrate worthy Of il progressive
destiny.
The Hon. Andrew j. Harlan, o Pierce
member of Congress from Me Eleventh dis
trict in Indiana, two y@rs ago, has declared
himself for Fremont.
Hon. James b. McKeasy a Judge Of Sara
tosa county, who voted for CAS- and Pierce,
made speech the other night at Saratoga
Springs in favor of Frcmon. and Day
Prentice continues his list of prominent
members Of the Democratic party who have
gone over to the Republicans, and accomps-
mics the record with the following character
istic comments:
"This stampede of the Northern DenOc.
racy continues undated. The extent Of the
detection from the bachelor Of Whcatland,
in favor of the owner Of Muiposa, b as

Love, Despair and Suicide.

Miss p. r. Brown, Of West Troy, commit
ted suicide by drowning last week, from
disappointment or some trouble in love-
She was most worthy, virtuous girl, and
a most beautifully written note was found
in her room, in which she most graphically
depicts her own case just previous to this
melancholy tragedy. The following is an
extract. She uses the hirdporson in speak
ing of herself
"IIush be still :" God has withdrawn
his strong arm; ministering spirits stands
back. "Why is this?" Oh! why has
God left her? Is it because she first with
held her love, in permitting mortal to re-
ceive that homage which was due to her
Maker, or is il to teach her that hcsh is
weak, or why did He forSakc ono who from
her infancy morning, noon and night, has
bowed before Him and prayed for His bles-
sing?
A change has come over this maiden she
awakes from her dream to find she clasps
shad,w. Tho sun shines no moro upon her
pathway, the stars are dim. Oh how can
she live when another's form is clasped in
those arms, anothor's head rests upon that
bosom? How can she smile, on the same
rs if her heart was not molten lead, dasso-
late and blighted? There is darkness over
her soul nought on earth can cheer her now.
She knows the greatest saints have erred,
and she hears the voice Of Jesus, saying, 50
and sin no more. Not all can eIace that
dark spot from her memory. There is fear
that reason will forSake her throne. She
hears the dashing ofthe dark waters, whose
waves are waiting to make her shroud, and
, voice saying, come, hero is rest for the
weary. She cannot stay with this frail ten
,ment, she must leave it because 1t has PROV
ii 50 weak.
"There Is something which dread;
IL Il a dark, FEARFUL thlnk
It's not the dread % deaih-tis more,
II Is the dread Of madness"
