SUPPOSED MURDERER ARREsrED.-About a
year and half ago young woman was viO-
lated and then murdered in Monroe county
Three men were tried for the crime and aequit-
ted Recently evidence has come out imphcat-
ing young man named Martin Troy, and he
has been arrested in Indiana and brought TO
Ohio for trial. On the way Troy either became
insane or pretended to be, and his conduct was
so violent that he had to be bound hand and
foot in order to manage him. The Columbus
Statesman says although quite young, he is
the most desperate, and altogether the hardest
looking man we ever beheld, and 1t is absolute
" painful to see him"

The House Vote on The Oregon Bill


Fifteen Republicans voted for the Bill, and
fourteen ultra Southern Democrats against
The Americans voted in body against it. The
bill was not considered party measure with the
Opposition, as is charged in some quarters, and
it was to Republican votes that the bill owed its
passage, Ofthe lOS votes against the bill, 80
were from the South. The Cincinnati Gazette
says Had those Republicans who voted for
it cast their vote on the opposite side, it would
have been defeated by seventeen majority
Decided, therefore, as is the Democratic major
ity in the House, phe Democrats outnumbering
the Republicans by thirty-fve votes) all the
strength that side could master in favor of Or
gOh was only such that the bill would have
been lOst6y thirty SIR majority on a full vote,
without Republican assistance Ifany party
capital can be made for them out of the passage
of the Oregon bill, under all these circumstan-
ees, let them make the most of it."

The wool which was worth 40 cents pound
last year in Ohio, is now worth in Philadelphia,
Boston and New York, 60 cents. The expen-
ses of getting it TO those several markets amount
to about cents pound
The commercial history of lock of Saxony
fleece, which we now hold in our hand, will
serve to illustrate the importance and truth of
that economical principle, which requires the
producer aud the consumer to be brought to-
gether. 1t is the finest fiber we have ever seen.
1t was shorn on a farm not eighteen hours dis
tant from this city. The clip of which it is
sample was sold within few months for 45
cents pound. The purchaser carried it to
dealer and resold it for SO cents The dealer
waited awhile for manufacturer of fine goods
to come along, and then sold it 10 him for 80
cents. 1t viii be very hard to satisfy the farm
er, who stands at the smallest end of this eli
max of profits, that he did not lose 35 cents
pound on his wool, deducting the cost of its
transportation from his garTet to the mill in
Massachusetts.

MnoI on me sheep,. Back.

The New York Tribune of the 18th, cautions
the wool growers of the West against making
sales of feeces on the backs of their sheep to
the wool-buying agents who are abroad in the
land engaging wool at so much per pound in
advance ofshearing time. It states that there
are hands now busy all over the West in
taking the feeces off the backs of the sheep,
by contract, for future delivery at present
prices, and adds
Can any of our farmer friends mistake, or
fail to apprehend, the character of the bargain
that is offered them for wool while yet on the
sleeps back! Is it not always made, on be-
half of the dealers in the large cities, upon the
certainty that the price will advance before the
coming of the clipping season! 1t always is.
And we believe that every ssle of wool thus
made by our farmers in anticipation of the reg
ular market, has netted them a loss, and the
purchasers profit. Numerous are the instan-
ees where as high an advance as five cents a
pound has been offered to spectators in wool
on the back, for an assignment of their con-
tracts.
For twelve months to come there probably
will be no diminution of the present value of
Wool in the great Eastern markets. One mo-
tive for an impatient sale we deem to be taken
away by the conviction of this truth The rise
thus far since the last clip has been fully so per
cent We.sincerely hope to hear next June
and July that our farmers generally got so per
cent. more for their wool in 1859 than they got
in 1858. To that end they should resolutely
decline offers made to them in the snow, un-
less they are so much higher than we hear
they are, as to make the 80 per cent advance
sure, with four months interest beside For
the general information of the too small num-
Der of our agriculturists who have focks of
sheep, we give the prices of American Wool in
the New York market this 9th day of February:

Sulphur for Stock .

The benefit derived by stock from the use
of sulphur is not sufficiently well known.
Most farmers are aware that there are GER
tain seasons in the year when animals OF
every description on the farm-from the
finest colt to the poorest calf-become afllic-
ted with Gn plain English) lice, Zone of
the ten plaques of Egypt or ticks.
TO become free from any trouble or in
iuries from the attacks of these pests, we
have only to put sulphur in the food, or salt
of stock SO infested: or mix little in lard,
and rub it on the small and young animals
A speedy cure may be depended upon.
think a teaspoonful two or three times a
week-four or five times year-will gener-
ally keep hogs and sheep entirely free from
such vermin.
The above article is more particularly ap-
plcabe to sheep and hogs. 1t has been
said, and believe with some show Of truth,
that sulphur has another effect on sheep;
that, given pentifully at the beginning of
warm weather, as above directed, every 9th
er week. till shearing time, it opens tho pores
of the skin, curing cough, and whitening
the wool; and as evidence of which, look at
the big snow white sheep on the mountains
of Virginia in the vicinity of the sulphur
springs. Ohio Farmer.

Volcano in California.

Some of the newspapers have become
quite interested in report that volcano,
in active operation, is to be seen somewhere
in the vicinity Of Lassen's Peak. This has
called out the Petalun,a Journal, with the
annexed statement in reference to it:
"Mr. G.. Jackson, Of this city, informs us
that during the month of April, 1851, he, in
company with several companions, while out
on prospecting expedition, paid a visit to a
volcano-probably the same to which DR..
Wozencraft refers. Mr. Jackson locates the
place at distance of forty to fifty miles, in
N. or E. N. E. course from Lassen's Butte.
Their attention was drawn to it by observing
for three successive nights, what at first ap-
peared to be a dim light, but as they neared it,
it assumed more the appearance of column
Of fire about one hundr~. feet in hight
Upon reaching the base of the mountain,
numerous hot springs were discovered so hot
that the party boiled coffee by immersng
their kettles in them. On the summit of
the mountain, the party discovered an open
ing forty to fifty feet in diameter from which
issued an immense column Of what appear
ed to be intensly heated air. With such
force was this emitted, that Mr.. J. saw stones
weighing fifteen and twenty pounds, upon
being thrown into the chasm, were hurled
upward into the air to a considerable hight
OF the depth of the crater, Mr.. Jackson
could form no just conception, as the intense
heat of the escaping gas utterly prohibited
approach nearer than fifteen or twenty feet.
The sides of the mountain, coated in some
places with lava, gave unmistakable evidence
that this volcano had at some day presented
more active and terrific appearance"

Senator Grant, a representative in the
Legislature from San Francisco-who ought
to know the truth of what he asserts, as he
was elected through their influence, and at
their instance-in a recent speech in the
Senate, designated the independent press of
San Francisco as "venal and corrupt" AS
we hear great deal said now a-days in these
journals about ''party tyranny" and party
corruption" and the "b; netul influence of
party" we would just like to make the in
quiry of this class of journals, when they
cease to be partizan in their character? We
have been familiar with them ever since they
had an existence, and can assert, without fear
of successful contradiction, that they have
always been the uncompromisinG enemies
of the Democracy, and manifested the most
unprincipled partizanship in their warfare.
1t makes no difference what phase the OPP
position assumes, they adopt it without a
murmur, and join Justify in the fight. When
it is over, and the national, conservative SEN
timent of the State has achieved a glorious
triumph, they commence at once their an
nual crusade against party, which is kept up
until the next campaign opens, when they
are as ready as ever to enter the fight against
the Democracy.
The Democracy have always had the same
enemy to fight, and they will not be doing
their duty if they do not continue to have it
to oppose them. We desire no better evi-
dence of the justness Of our cause than the
disapprobation of these same independent
journals. They claim to be opposed to party
but it is only to the Democratic party
1t has never yet done anything to elicit their
appreciation, and it is the hope of every
good Democrat that it never may.
