How Lewis ID. Campbell was Nominated.

The Republican Convention for the
Third Congressional District of Ohio,
composed of the counties of Butler,
Prcble and Montgomery, was held on
Tuesday last, and the result has here
tofore been announced by telegraph.
The nomination of Lewis ID. Campbell
was unanimously made, as appears by
the concise and graphic account of the
Cincinnati Gazette. After the organic
alton was Effected 2.-rffs- 9H
Mr.. Thomas Moore, of Butler, then
moved that each county should consult
Immediately, and name at once its can
didate for Congress. Carried.
Mr.. Beckett then mounted seat and
announced Butlercounty will meet in
this corner" The other counties met
in other corners.
In few minutes the Chair said: ''Is
Montgomery ready to report ?"
E. A. Parrott rose and said: "Mont-
gomery is a unit and casts her 43 votes
for Lewis ID. Campbell. Great APP
plause. .r
Butler was next called-Dr. Edward
Kimball responded: Butler casts her
26 votes for Lewis d. Campbell"
Preble was then called, and M. 3.
Chadwick said: "Preble casts her "a
votes for Lewis d. Campbell.
Dir. Moore, of Butler, moved that
Lewis d. Campbell receive the unani-
nous nomination of this Conventions
A Delegate" He's got that"
Chair-That's so, but some of these
gentlemen want an opportunity to
shout. Iput the motion-say aye; now
holler.
Your reporter cannot attempt to
give the hollering; it beggared all des-
cription.

There is great outcry about that
letter of the President to Bill English.
The Administration press give gene
raj blast to the effect that it is for
gerry. The facts in the case are these:
The President wrote letter to Bill
English which Bill read openly to the
Convention which placed him in nomi-
nation as a candidate for reelection,
having before his nomination used 1t
privately to procure that result. The
letter which is going the rounds of the
opposition press, was as nearly as one
who heard it read could write from
memory. The home organ of Mr.. Eng
lish admits that letter from the Pres
ident was read by English, but declares
that the one printed bears no resem-
blance to the real document save in one
particular. Mr.. Buchanan did say that
if he had thousand votes to give in
the district of Mr.. English, Mr.. E.
should have them all for nomination by
the Democratic party and reelection.
If the Presidents papers are not salts
fed with the letter as printed, let them
print it correctly. Bnt though read to
a convention it NAV be that it. is like
that private letter Of Hon. Sam Cox to

The TerminOus of the Atlantic Cable and
Surrounding Scenery.

All who have visited Trinity Bay,
Nev foundland, with one consent allow
it to be one of the most beautiful sheets
of water they ever set eyes upon. Its
color is very peculiar-an inexpresslble
n;ngling of the pure blue ocean with
the deep evergreen woodland, and the
serene blue sky. It's extreme length is
about eighty miles, its breadth about
thirty miles, opening boldly into the
Atlantic on the northern side of the
Island. At It's southwestern shore it
branches into the Bay of Bulls Arm,
which is quiet, safe and beautiful har-
Dor about two miles in breadth, and
nine or ten in length, running in di-
rection northwest. rrs vtsr..r
The depIn oI water is sufficient for
the largest vessel. The tide rises sew
en- or eight feet, and the bay terminates
i'm beautiful sand beach. The shore
is clothed with mountain ash, presents
a pleasing contrast. The land rises
gradually from the water all around, so
as to afford one of the most convenient
and agreeable town sites in Il e island.
You ascend only about a quarter of a
mile from the water, and there are no
longer trees, but wild grass, like an
open prairie. Here are found at this
season myriads of the upland cranber-
ries, upon which unnumbered ptarmi-
gan, or the northern partridge, feed.
The raspberry, bake-apple berry, and
the whortle berry are also common.
Numerous little lakes may be seen in
the open, elevated ground, from which
flow rivnlets, affording abundance o.
fine trout. After ascending for about
mile and half, you are then proba-
bly, 800 or 400 feet above the ii le, and
nothing can exceed the beauty of the
scene when, at one View, you behold
the placid waters of both Trinity and
Placentia Bays-the latter sprinkled
with clusters of verdant islands.
You can now descend westward as
gradually as you came up from the Tel
egraph landing, to the shore of Placen-
tia Bay, where there is an excellent
harbor and admirable fisheries, skirting
the shore, and the accompanying road
of the land Telegraph line leading from
St. John westward through the island
to Cape Ray. At this season of the
year, game is very abundant. Rein
deer in great numbers, bears, wolves
others very numerous, the large north
ern hare, foxes, wild geese, ducks, &c.
About four miles southwark of the
entrance of the.Bay of Bulls Arm, on
the shore of Placentia Bay, is situated
the extraordinary La Manche lead
mine, the property of the !Teleetapl,
Company, already yielding rich sup
ply of remarkably pure galena The
place where the cable is landed is mem
orable in the history of the island as
the naval battle ground between the
French and English in their early
struggle for the exclusive occupancy
of the valuable fisheries along the coast.

+ ABOUT Robert Southey
says man may be cheerful and con-
tented in celibacy, butt do not think
he can ever be happy; it is an uunatu-
raj state, and the best feelings of his
nature are never called into action.
The risks of marriage are for the great
er part on the woman's side. Women
have so little the power of choice, that
it is not perhaps fair to say that they
are less likely to choose well than we
are but / am persuaded that they are
more frequently deceived in the attach
ments they form, and their opinions
concerning men are less accurate than
mems opinion of their sex. Now, if a
lady were to reproach me for having
said this, / should only reply that it
was another mode OF saving there are
more good wives in the world than
there are good husbands, which l verify
believe. / know of nothing which a
good and sensible man is so certain to
find, if he looks for it, as good wife.

In a little fairy valley

In little fairy valley

Where silver streamlet wanders,
Is this pretty home of mine.
Where the wild flowers bloom the sweetest
And the robins love to come,
And the brightest sunbeams linger,
Is my little cottage home.

And of skies that brighter seem, a
Where the flowers are ever blooming
And the trees are ever green. q
And of cities with their splendor
Far beyond the oceans foam,
Yet am well contented
With my pretty cottage home.
To be sure no terraced gardens
Are around my simple cot,
No choice exotics, yet as sweet
The wild forget-me-not.
No peak except the forest, f
Where the red deer loves to roam,
Yet nature seems to bless me
In my quiet cottage home.
Some boast of fame and glory
And others sordid wealth,
Yet care not for their glitter
With the blessed boon of health.
The king may claim his palace
And the titled lord his dome,
They know not the enjoyment
Of simple cottage home.

Loafers in A Printlng ofrice.

The composing room Of a printing Office
is not the place to telllopg stories, or argue
points in metaphysics, A printing Office
is like school,, it can have no interlopers'
hangers on or twaldlers, withouta serious
Inconvenience. to say nothing OF the loss
of time, which is as good as gold to the
printer. What should be thought of a
man who would enter school and twaddle
first with the teacher and then, with the
scolars- interrupting the dicipline of one
and the studies of the other? apd yet this
is the practice effected Of the loafers with
the course of business distracts the great
attention which is necessary to the good
printer. Mo gentleman will ever enter il
and presume to act the ioafer. He will
feel above it, for no real man sacrifices the
interests or interferes with the duis OF the
others. The loafsr does both. Let him
think, ifh, never has, that the last place
he should ever insinuate his worthless enc
unwelcomed presence is in the printing Of

Carr. CLARKE:--In noticing edilorially |
my recent Lecture. you represent me as
''aRsmpfiHgto prove chat all who presume |
TO disagree with the orthodox believers in |
miracles arc otksisfs." Now the only
miracles on which basOd any argument,
or from which l drew any inference were
the miracles connected with the introduce
tion Of organic life upon our planet.
Attempted TO demonstrate that the produc>
ton Of the first pair Of each species OF ami
mails. andthe production Of the first germ
OF each specissofpIants was q miracle; that
is, an.event.that was not brought about
simply Bv the agency Of natural causes,
and from these miracles Of creQtiog,l at

TOR. Itmay be that none but the ortho.
doz believe that power district from aud
superior to that OF nature has ever been ex-
erted, or has even an existence.
]. WILLIAMS.
In reply to the above we have simply
10 remark that we do not admit. that the
"creatiOn Of organic liie," or the frst man
and woman, or the first pair Of animals
was miracle, in the common acceptation
Of the term; but. that it is part and parcel
Of series of acts Of supreme power and
infinite wisdom. which personi6ed, means
God. With these creations, commenced
the laws Of nature to finite beings-laws
accompanying and impressed BY Jehovah
bimsslf upon all created things; and upon
the observance of these laws depends the
happiness, both present and future, of all
created beings. We do not believe that
the all.wise, omnicient Creator of the uni
verse was mistaken in his theory, by the
Vaccinations Of human beings, found it
necessary to annul, suspend, or to contra
vtne any of his primitive laws.
We are satisfied to take creation as we
find ii, rsfsrring all to the supreme, un-
changable, eternal wisdom of God-the
first caase of all things; and therefore. the
only legitimate province of finite beings
lis, to learn what exists, enquire how it ex'
lists. and learn to ,0hat purposes in human
life it can be applied to contribute to hui
man happiness in this life and the life to
come. "A
II therefore follows that we believe in
the first great Bible from God to man--the
Book Of Nature, which is open alike to all,
that a "man may read as he runs" We
also believe in the declaration Of Christ,
II am come not to destroy the law, but to
establish it as it was in the beginning
!. that not a jot or title shall pass away un'
