Strange Development.

It seems that JOHN ". FoREEY, who
was chief manager of the late Presidential
canvass, wrote sundry letters to his south
ern suboTdii ates, to get up q hi OF q
fuss about the union-make tall threats to
dissolve the union if Fremont should be
elected--say that no southern gentleman
would accept Office under Fremont, &C.
&c. All this was accordingly done: "
tremendous disunion storm prevailed IL
every,souticrn State, and any man wh'
would accept Office under Fremont SHOULD
be hung as an abolitionist. Then com
menced John ". Forney's paper and eve
~ northern press in the negro conspiracy,
to thunder in warning tones that, III you
select John G. Fremont, the union Will be
dissolved the moment he becomes P:esi-
"dent: not a southern man will accept OF
"fce under him; the Post Offices will
"close and the Custom Houses will cease
"to collect revenue; anarchy, revolution
"and separation will follow; but, elect
james Buchanan, and peace and good or
"der will prevail in all this glorious union.
The anti-Forney democracy OF Penn
sylvania have got possession Of some OF
Forney's letters, and they are showing up
his disunion humbuggery at savage rate
It will be remembered the democracy in
these parts feigned great alarm about the
union if Fremont should be elected
John W. Forney got up all their disnnion
thunder and they used it to order under
his direction-just like quack medicines arc
used.

GgThe Je6;srsoaian Democrat, pub
lished at Monroe, Green Co .nty, has sus-
pended for want of support. We notice
this among the suspicious events of the
times, that nearly every week one or more
democratic paper suspends for want of
support, while the Ike happens not once
III two months Of Republican papers,
Also that Just about one new Republican
paper week goes into operation, This OBJ
servation applies not only to Wisconsin, but
the same is reported true Of all northern
States.

QuEER RELA11oNsHIp.-It is said there
is widower in Camden, New jersey, who
recently married a young girl, and soon
after his son BY former wife married
bis fathers wife's mother. In con
sequence Of these two connections a
father became the son-in-law of his son,
and the wife not only the daughter-in-law
of her own son-in-law, but still more the
danghter-in-law of her own daughter;
while the husband Of the latter IS the
faLher-in-law of bis own mother-in law to
bis own father. Singular confusion may
arise # children should spring from these
peculiar marriages.

Pump Carpeaa ter giving Tesfi-
GRomy-BGacz6 Republican Lies
Char gel iEaGss Truths.

It is seldom one of the negro extension
organs ever aludes to Kansas affairs
Pump CATPENrER, of the Madison PatrS-
OF, who is at Washington watching the
Barstow Forty Thieves, writes homo to
his paper, however, contrary to par
ty usage, the following corrobora-
ton of all the shanghai statements
which were formerly set down as freedom
schrcech;ngs, and he gives Gov. GEARY,
whom the democracy have been lauding to
the skies as authority:
I enjoyed the pleasure of an interview
with Gov. Geary to-day, who has just ar
rived from Kansas, and is stopping at VII
lard's Hotel--the lion of the day. He
gives hard account Of the Border Ruff
fans and seems to think that unless the
U. S. troops are at the service of the Gov
elnor there, and Judge Lecompte removed,
no impartial man can exercise the func-
tions of Governor Of that Territory. He
assured me that the story of his specula-
ting in Indian lands or any other lands,
was an unqualified falsehood-that he
never bought nor sold single foot of land
in that Territory He says that he was
In danger of his life every hour that he
stayed there, and that armed bodies Of
men We're banded together to murder
him. He claims to have acted strictly i'm
partial as between the Pro-Slavery and
Free State men. He is quite certain that
a large majority of the bona fde residents
there are in favor Of making Kansas a Free
State, but that the other party have the
strings in their hands, and have resolved
on Constitution which they refuse to
submit to the people. That that was one
of the main reasons for his veto Of the
measure, &c. On the whole he thinks
Kansas pretty hard place-that the
people are right and governed by the best
motives, but that the politicians on both
sides are hard cases, and generally go, ern-
ed by the love ofspoils.
Gov. G. is rather a TALL slender man,
but otherwise well built. He has keen
eye, an active temperament, a hardy com
plexion, wears his beard without shaving,
and | should set his age at about 40. He
says bis six months service has cost him
$4,000 which he never expects to receive
back, and altogether, he considers it poor
investment, either for reputation or mon
ey.

weather rebellions; the weather was OF a
kind which keeps men at home and drives
homeward all who are out. Hence, the
result Of our elections shows that abou:
half the voters stayed at home; Of those
living in the country perhaps two-thirds
did not 90 to vote. Fully three fourths Of
the Republican voters Of Grant County re-
side in the country, 50 that our majority Is
far below what it ought to be. We give
below the result of Towns, SO far as heard

How Much TIMorHY SEED TO AN ACRE.
1t is well known fact, that if you do
not SOW grass seed, weeds will occupy the
space grown. It is therefore desirable to
SOW just as much seed as, when TILED out,
will cover the entire surface. If clover is
10 be sown with it--as is a common but
erroneous practice, because they do not ri
pen together-then twelve quarts of tim
otby to an acre is sufficient. If the mead
owls to be seeded with timothy alone, use
not less than half a bushel of clean seed to
an acre. Ohio Farmer.

J. e. Dodge, Esq. and Eais pTeten-
ded lssss Unreal Friends.

1t will be remembered that we pub
lished last week the card of Mr.. Dodge,
announcing that lie was not candidate
for County Judge. On the day of cleo
ton, notwithstanding his dec'onsion and
never having consented to run, his assum-
ed friends in many places persisted il
working for bis election, yet in the full
knowledge that he had declined. It was
a mysterious operation to all outside of
the secret drivers of all The devilment.-
This week we are able to explain it and
are requested to DO so by the real friends
of Mr.. Dodge.
AS soon as the card of Mr.. Dodge, re-
fusing to be candidate, appeared in our
paper letters were despatched from Ian
caster saying that Mr.. Dodge would serve
if elected, aud that in all probability the
card Of Mr. Dodge III our paper was gotten
up at the Herald Office, OF in plain words,
that we had forged it, and urging all dem
ocrats to work hard for Mr.. Dodge's elec-
ton. During the week several democrats
called on us to see the original or written
refusal of Mr. Dodge to be candidate
We showed it to acknowledgment they
seemed much astonished. They promptly
said that the letters written at Lancaster
urging the support of Mr.. Dodge, were
calculated 10 add insult to injury, and
hoped we would explain it for his bene-
fit.
Mr.. Dodge has since called at our Office
and requests us to say in explanation that
he urged bis friends to support McGonigal
for whom he voted himself, and shat the
support he received at Waterloo, where be
resides, were accidental votes aud by those
who had not learned OF his declension.
So far as we are concerned in the Lam
caster letters, we care nothing. IF any
person thinks we would do so mean a
thing as forge . communication OF any
thing OF the kind, We envy not his stupidi-
tv.
