the Fayetteville Observer,) writing about the
business of High Point mentioned in the Observer
few days ago that 1000 worth of dried black
berries sent from that place to man at the
North, from July to Sept. II, 1859. Some of
our contemporaries, copying the letter, have been
in wonderment to the purpose for which the
dried blackberries were wanted. They are used,

New INvENT1oN.-We are informed
that Rev. Mr.. STANLEY, of the First Pres
byterian Church, who on the morning of
Sabbath last preached the funeral sermon
of JOHN BRowN, of Kansas and Harper's
Ferry memory, is about to apply to the
Patent Office at Washington, for patent
for the invention Of Hero, Martyr, and
Saint, out of the dead body of one who
assassinated many peaceable and unoffend
ing men in Kansas, and surprised and kill
ed unarmed men at Harper's Ferry, and
when condemned to the galows for the
one hundredth part of his crimes, was so
hardened in sin as to refuse to have a
clergyman visit him in prison. We I'M

Free Democrat, Milwaukee, is to 20 to
Washington, and in person file Mr.. STAN

A FLAT CoSTRADICTIoN.-The editor Of
the Manitowoc Herald will perceive the
following Favorable allusion" to his "false
reports" concerning the editor of the Pilot,
by reading the Milwaukee Neocs Of the 18th
inst. We hope it will have a beneficial
influence upon friend FITCH, and that here
after he will be more careful in observing
the 9th Commandment, which reads "thou
shalt not bear false witness against thy
neighbor." The Ncncs says:
"BUr JrsrrcE.-The editor Of the Man
itowoc Herald says that false reports"
secured the appointment of Jere Crowley,
of the Pilot, Deputy L. s. Marshal, from
the hands of Mr.. Lewis. The Herald has
evidently been misinformed, as we know
that Mr.. Crowley was appointed on his
own merits as man and democrat, and
not on account Of the short coming of, or
false reports concerning any one else"
AS we have failed to induce the Herald
to retract its false statement, we wonder i,
the above will not compel i, to do us ;us.

LEI A large amount of Lumber and
other products from the North are now
passing over the North Western Railroad
to the South. The difficulty is to procure
freight cars enough to do the business that
is steadily increasing at all the stations
Long trains twenty or thirty cars daily
pass through this city, loaded to their ut
most capacity. Next season, with the in
creased facilities which the company will
have, we shall witness an amount of travel
and transportation over this road that will
astonish those who have INDUCED the most
extravagant expectations. Against all op-
position and jealousy, this is destined to be
the great public high way of the State and
draw to itself much the heaviest share of
business. - Watertoun Democrat
Our citizens can see the necessity for a
Railroad to Lake Winnebago, which, if
completed, would give US, of the Pilot, an
opportunity of chronicling items like the
above, instead of our Watertown cotem-
porary. Watertown, GAINESVILLE, and Chi
cago, are now reaping large benefit
through our apathy. Hurry up the Rail

ANOTHER RErUBLIcAN PREAcHER-We
learn from the Waupacca Spirit, that at a
meeting of the Fox River Presbytery, held
at Stevens Point, last week, the Rev. GEO.
TURNER was convicted Of the "crime of
dishonesty, falsehood, and prevarication, a
want of strict integrity under oath, and Of
bearing false witness against his neighbor,
for which he was deposed from the Gosp-
ell Ministry, and communicated from the
Christian Church" Brother TuRsER used
to pray for Fremont, denounce slavery,
preach on everything but the gospel, and
has at last turned out just as all that class
of divines will.-Mlwduhee Ne,rs.

He directed the "young idea," to support

The Steamship Indian.

The screw steamship Indian, wrecked
on the coast of Nova Scotia, on the 21st
ult., an account of which disaster we pub
lished in the Pilot Of the 81, belonged to
the Liverpool and Canadian Steamship
Company. She was first class iron pro-
peler Of one thousand seven hundred and
sixty-four tons bur:hen. She was built in
Dumbarton, Scotland, in the year 1855,
and enjoyed very good reputation for
speed and safety. She was two hundred
and eighty-three feet long, and fitted with
five water-tight bulkhead compartments.
Her engine was a vertical direct one, with
two cylinders of sixty-two inches in dame
ter, and three and half fee. stroke.
As our readers are aware, the first steam
ship that crossed the Atlantic was the
Sirius, in 1888. The regular line of Eu-
ropean steamships was started by Mr..
CUSARD in 1910, and since that time there
have been lost on the Atlantic twelve
steam vessels, as follows; The President,
Columbia, Humboldt, City of Glasgow,
City of Philadelphia, Franklin, Arctic, Pa
cifc, Lyonnais, Tempest, Austria, Indian.

CHEERING TO THE DEMocRAcY-The
Milwaukee News, in giving the result of
the recent election in this State, gives us
the following figures, and words of encour
ment to the Democracy:
The whole number Of votes polled this
year, is over 123, 900, and exceeds that of
1856, about 1000, and likewise that Of
last spring, by almost the same number.
Compared with the vote of 1856, the re-
publcans lose nearly 5000, and the Dem
ocrats gain upwards of 1000, compared
with the vote of last spring polled at the
judicial election, we find that Randalls
vote is nearly the same that Paine receiv-
ed, while Hobart's is about 1000 greater
than Lynde received.
This affords most cheering indications Of
the progress of sound democratic princi-
pies in this State, and shows that republi-
canism is on the wane. We shall obtain,
as early as we can, complete table of the
votes cast, in the several counties, at least,
and in the towns. wards and precincts, if
possible. We will then undertake to an
alyze it, and show that our gains have all
been in the two Congressional districts,
which border upon Lake Michigan, while
the republicans have gained largely in the
Second District, which borders on the
Mississippi river. We have only time to
add, now, that the result is not, in the
least, discouraging to US, and propitious,
we think, for the democracy"
|
dir HIM AGAIN.-The Tribune, a few
days since, in denying that the Republi-
can party is responsible for the acts of JOHN
BROWN, used the following language;
There may be men who act with the
Republican party. who desire to accom-
plish by instruction what the rest of the
party are trying to secure by Legislation
the freedom of the Territories; but il
would be as consistent to Judge a church
or a society by the acts Of one man as tc
hold the party responsible for the act,
of few, whose counsels DO not prevail in
its conventions, orinhuence in itsdecisons.
On reading the above, any sensible mar
would Judge that the Tribune and the Re
publicans do not sacton tho course pur
sued by zone man. and his "acts, in &
certain "chureh" in this place. Our
friend of the TABERNACLE does not ap

own political friends. In fact, some o

To John Brown:
SIR:-Although vengence is not mine,
| confess thatI do feel grateful to hear
that you-were stopped in your fendish ca
reer at Harper's Ferry. With the loss Of
your two sons you can now appreciate my
distress in Kansas, when you then and there
entered my house at midnight, and arrest
ed my husband and two boys, and took
them out of the yard and in cold blood
shot them dead in my hearing-you can't
say you did it to free our slaves. We had
none and never expected to own one. 1t
has onl y made me poor disconsola:e
widow with helpless children. When l
feel for your folly, do hope and trust that
you will meet with your just reward. O.!
how it panied my heart to hear the dying
groans Of my husband and children. If
this scrawl gives you any consolation you
are welcome to it. MAHALA DOYLE.
n. B.-My son, John Doyle, whose life
| begged of (you) is now grown up, and is
very DESTROYS to be in Charleslown on the
day of your execution, and would certain
ly be there if his means would permit it..
NJ. DOYLE.
AS BRows, in his dying hour, acknowl-
edged the butcbery of Mrs. DoYLE's hus-
baud and her two sons, in Kansas, why
cannot the Tabernacle" preacher give us
discourse on the brutal murder, or why
cannot our Abolition friends take up a

phan children-made SO by OssowArTA-

unjust, is the murder, in cold blood, Of
three innocent persons, to be passed by
without reproachl Here is a splendid sub
