Destruction of the Seminary ut Earlvilie,
La Sale County, Illinois.

Ed Free 7rader-Our usually qaiet VIII
lage was on last Sunday morning thtown in
to state of excitement, which no pc none
of US will ever again be called upo u to re-
late. At about p or 3 o'clock on TIL morn
ing aforesaid, an unearthly explosion took
place, causing alu ost every house in the viii
lage to tremble, as though the earth had
opened and the day Of judgment had come
Ibis at first thought was assigned 70 be the
cause, as the Miliertes or Second a lventists
had preached such doctrines only the Sun
day previous, that the end Of time b ad come,
&c. Therefore. from the time the Explosion
took place until morning, no other reason
could be given for such an unnatural sound
Citizens in the meantime were busy-tra-
versing the streets in ali directions, to ascer-
tain, il possible, the true cause Of the terri
Bile fright As soon, however, as the dusky
gray Of morn had passed away, il was dis
covered that the beautiful Seminary, that
proudly stood forth only few hours ago.
could not be seen, but in its stead mass OF
frightful ruins.
/ The news spread like wild fire. men, wo-
men and children rushed to the scene from
all directions, and although, the next day,
I the excitement prevailed, the cause Of such
destruction is still a mystery. Upon an ex.
/ animation it was thought that the villain
who did the act must have broken light
Of glass after tearing off the window shutter
and placed keg of powder or more, in tht
principal room down below, or on the frs
floor, and from the outside fired the fuse
by that means escaping unhurt.
The loss falls heavily on the citizens OF
Earlville and vicinity. The seminary cos
nearly 5000, was built of brick, and was
an orpsmen, and credit to the place. The
first term Of the seminary commenced last
spring, and under the charge Of Mr.. Haslett
Principal, and Miss Cotton, Assistant, bot!

THE County FAIR.-In but little more
than two weeks the next Fair will be held,
and the books are no,e open at the Office Of
the Secretary, DR.. HARRIS, for entries.
The Secretary wishes us to state that the
cash premiums will, if possible, be paid Oh
the grounds this year. This of course must
give general satisfaction.
The work Of preparation is going on ra-
pidly a. the Fair grounds-the buildings,
sheds, &C., are being fitted up in superior
style, and all will be completed, probably, in
week or ten days.
We hear of many persons who are pre-
pairing their articles or animals for exhibi.
ton, and we hope that all who have any.
thing that will possibly do to exhibit, even il
not quite sc good as they would wish, will
bring it along, and the owner thereof may
be surprised to find premium ticket at
tached at the close Cf the exhibition. for the
remark is often made during the Fair, "l
have something at home that would bea
that, and if had known there would be no
thing better here, would have brought i
along"
Mechanics and manufacturers in partcu
lar should not neglect this opportunity, fol
even if they do not get premiums, they OBJ
| tain more than full compensation for their
trouble BY way of adrertising their wares.

Ahaid of their Principles.-Choki down
the Resolutions.

A rich affair occurred in the Republican
Club in this city on Saturday evening. The
club held its second meeting, and some Of
the leading members thought it was about
time to lay down platform Of principles
So they drew up series of resolutions and
presented them to the club. The resolutions
were such as all republican meetings in this
Congressional district have been in the hab.
it Of passing. They announced the usual
republican doctrine of Congressional domi-
nation over the territories, opposition to the
admission of slave States, denounced the fu-
ident Buchanan, &C., &c. They were ner-
vously drawn, and pleased the meeting i'm
menscly, who expressed their appreciation
by repeated and boistcrous cheering. OF
course, the reader has already concluded,
they were adopted unanimously.
Well they weren't! The poor, unsophis-
ticated authors of thoss resolutions, and the
still more unsophisticated "rabuie" that SO
Justify checred them pulled their eyes opec
some, when, as soon as the noise and cheer
ing had subsidized, prominent republican
leader rose and announced that it would
never do to pass such resolutions, and NOV
ed their reference to a committee composed
of such men as o. c. Gray, j. 0. Glover,
and 7. j. Wade
Here is pretty pass! A republican club
refuses to adopt genuine republican resolu-
items! The high privates Of the crank and
file" are for them all over, but the leaders
PIT their hands to their threats and tell
them to shut up. "You don't know what
republican principles are now." The bust
ness of the rank and file is to keep mum un-
til the leaders give them the cue. IL is time
enough to cheer when the leaders taxi, and
if they want resolutions, the President Of
the club will fix up committee to draft
some. And this is Republicanism in these
days of light, and Of freedom of thought
and speech!
Will the Ottawa Republican dare to pub
lish the resolutions that were thus strangled
or will the committee or the club dare to lei
US publish them.
