Our respectable neighbor, the Cour-
Ter, thinks, or affects TO think, that IL
is matter ofindifferenee whether tho
voters at an election are able to read
the language in which our laws are
written ornot. II voters are regarded
merely as the convenient tools OF dem
agogles, it Is certainly of very little
Importance whether they are able to
read their ballots, or possess any know
ledge of the public questions to be de-
cided by their votes. IL is true that
mere ability to read does not necessa-
rily imply intelligence, as the posses
sion Of n mouth does not necessarily
imply full stomach. But il would
seem TO be pretty safe proposition,
that man cannot possess clear and
well digested views Of the constitution
atty OF public measures, who is una
bic to read the Constitution, or Of the
propriety of all laws while he is igno-
rant Of their provisions. There are
some propositions so obviously trueas
scarcely to admit of argument. OF
this character is the proposition that
intelligence is an indispensable quail.

elective franchise. This is so hack

He will find that the reason uniformly

SCHENECTADY COUNTY ALSO VISITED by

From the Schenectady Star.
On Saturday afternoon, about five
o'clock, a strong current Of air passed
through a portion of this county, and
cut up some strange freaks 1t COM
menced at Mariaville, laying the APP
pie orchard of the widow Frost In
desolation; passing into Bradshaw's
woods 1t twisted off hickory trees a
foot through the trunk, and pine trees
two feet in diameter. The next we
hear Of il is at Samuel McMillan's,
where il blew down trees, removed
stone walls, and carried away fence.
rails, so that they have not since been
heard from.
Richard ID. Bond, living next east,
had his barn, and shed adjoining the
barn, demolished, anda valuable horse
killed by the roof of the wood shed,
which was lifted entirely off. The eff
fects are visible for about half mile

tho storm was from west TO east. We
had no wind at the time in this city,
and so far as we can learn, the dam.
age was entirely confined to narrow
strip Of about five miles in length
and a quarter of mile in width
For so severe a hurricane it is rcmar-
kable that IL should have been confn-
ed TO so narrow limits. The theory,
however, in the afflicted neighbor-
hood, is that the comet must have
struck slightly somewhere in the town
of Duanesburgh.

CHASTITY bruises on the neck, though
the blow which caused the death is
evident in a wound upon the abdomen.
Reflections sad and suggestive throng-
ed my mind as looked on the corpse
of that mother, and thought on the
fate that had stricken her in death,
while the infantin her arms was utter
ly unframed, and the boy behind her
not so seriously injured as to cause in
slant death; but reflections are out of
place here. The boy spoken Of was,
at 6 o'clock this evening, still alive,
though in stupor, and will probably
die Of his wounds, which are mostly
on tho head and face.
Hundreds on hundreds Of people

strange misfortune.

n NASHVILLE:
FRIDAY. sRPTEMBER Ii, 1857.
The state Fafr.


The next annual meeting Of the State
Fair will commence on the 18th of Octo-
Der next, and continue the entire week.
The opening address is to be delivered by
Governor JOHNSON, and the closing by the
Governor elect. Hon. I. G.. HARR1s. The
premiums offered by the Bureau are very
liberal; and we are informed that the Fair
Grounds have been vastly improved since
last fall, affording now much greater facil-
tiles for the accommodation of exhibitors,
and for the convenience and comfort of
visitors. This being the case, we would
nrge our agricultural friends to take steps
to bring about brisk competition for the
premiums. Every farmer and planter with
in convenient distance, ought to have
something present to represent him. It
was for their benefit that these fairs were
instituted; and unless they take an inter
est in their success, and do what they can
to render them attractive, it is not to be
expected that the general public will man
ifest any great desire to encourage them.
If they do this, the coming fair will, we
have not the least doubt, take the lead of
all its predecessors. The year has been a
most productive one With the single ex-
ceptiOn of fruits, every thing that the
earth yields for the sustentation and sup
port of man, is abundant, and of excellent
quality. A wider and better field for com
petition and display cannot be expected
and should not be desired. Let us, then,
have fair this season which shall be cred
liable to the rich, prosperous, and enlight-
ened section of country which constitutes
! the heart of Tennessee.

THEIR 'NoRrHERN ALLIEs."-The Democratic
press and speakers throughout the South have been
deriding the American party for its meagre repre-
sentation in the next Congress- and at the same
time Boosting of the ffty-one Northern Democrats
who will stand side by side with Southern men in
the House of Representatives. The Savannah
Georgian says that the Hon. A. Il. Stephens re-
Gently used this argument at Hancock, Ga, when
Mr.. Lewis, in reply, put an utter extingu$her on
all his fond hopes by showing that every OF
these ffty-one Northern Democrats will be found
standing side by side with Mr.. Buchanan, in favor
of Walker and ireesoilism, and against the South,
Mr.. Stephens and his fellow Democrats of Georgia
included. Mr.. Lewis spoke the truth. There is
not Democratic press or politician of any promi-
nence at the North that is not against us on this
question: question involving, as declared by the
late Democratic Convention OF Georgia, the prnci-
pie of non-nterVentiou and the dearest rights of
the South. What, then, is the South to expect
from her alliance with the Northern National Dem
Ocrats! Will some one tell us? The South has
no hope from either the administration or its
Northern friends. In this emergency when the
only principle for which she has commended is in
jeopardy, and put there by the men who should
have stood by US, her only hope is outside Of the
National Democracy.-LOu. Jour.

The silence of an Arctic Night.

The following eloquent description of the 81
lence of an Arctic night occurs in DR.. Hays
lecture on the Arctic region:
"The moonlights OF this period (winter) are
the most grand and impressive of anything l
have ever witnessed. The clearness of the
air, the white surface of the snow and ice, give
an effect monOtonous and cherries, but truly
grand. But there is neto element which
makes this mid-winter moonlight seem almost
terrible in its impressiveDess. 1t is silence.
~ have often, TO escape from the trying mo-
notony of ship-board life, gone OFF six or eight
miles into the interior, in search of novelty,
and in order that / might be alone. There,
seated upon a rock or snow-bank, L look
around me, and see great uneven country
rocky hills and glaciers covered with snow /;
myriads of crystal gems sparkling in the light
of the pale moon, which shoots its rays down
through the crisp air, making it almost as light
as day. / look seward and see a long plain
of ice, melting into the horizon, dotted ali
over with huge, towering bergs,-nOthing
more.
"All nature is in the repose of death. am
too far from shore to hear the crunching O
the cables as they rise and fall lazily with the
tide, or the RI ar like thunder as some huge
crack opens through the heavy foes. There
is no animal to cross my path, no tree among
whose branches the wind can sigh and moan.
There is no song of birds to enliven the scene
no wild beast to howl. stand here alone,
the only representative of Gods living world
the ohly being that has life or can move.
Every sound that hear-every motion that
see-is made by myself; hear nothing but
the pusation of my own heart, my own foot
steps, or now and then, possibly, in the dis
lance, the deep rumblng of falling snow
bank.
''The sensation of utter loneliness and isols
ton creeps over me. Ny heart BEATS as il
rushes the blood through the sensitive organi-
cation of the ear; am oppressed as with dis
cOrdant sounds. Silence has ceased TO be neg
alive; il has become sternly positive. ! hear
see, and feel it. It's presence is uncomfortable.
spring TO my feet-I plant them heavily in
the snow to drown its presence, and l rus
back to the vessel, and glad even to fad T,
fuge ia its dull, dull life of hOrrid inactivity.
