ANGELS DAGUERREoTYPED.- The Spir-
atual Telegraph contains the statement
Of a correspondent to the effect that on
a recent occasion an artist was employed
to take a daguerreotype Of a corps, which
for the purpose, was seated in a chair.
The plate, on examination, was found to
contain not only The picture of deceased,
but. to the establishment Of all, two
other figures, a male and female, stand
ing beside the corps. The w'iter adds ::
" The dress of the female figure was
wholly unlike that Of the artist, tire
artist was a ftma|e) and no other female
was in the room. All the e yures, cor.
pse and all, were very dim. Now, the
spiritual phase is, that two spirits stand
ing besides the corps were reflected, etc.

SAN MICHAEL, W. B.sRg.;, Aug: 25th, 1859.
Owing TO the heayy, dry weather 10
the fore, middle and latter part oft.hs
week, everything dropped, but the. better
qualities came up with the sunshine, and
some holders refused to let 60. A>deci-
ced tendency was exhibited in all opera'
tons, and prices ranged considerably
higher than when down. The lower
grades were principally ias.'e"and, hence :
we see no occasion to change our figures
from previously quoted rates. Consider.
able excitement was raised in the putty
market in consequence! Of the arrival Of
a cargo Of that commodity. It was pur--
chased at a light figure at sight BY
Blind, Sash d. Co. Capt. Paoes repor
ted immediate sale and the market was
depressed: Some small lots of whisky
were taken by the constable for the ben
ut Of the underwriters, and the sales o.
staple footed up on Saturday. The
week closed firm, the transactions foot
ing up more or less according to the
sales, and there is q general opinion en-
tertained among business men that there
will be a brisk demand if purchasers Or
orders come in freely. The closing quo
tat;ons for prime were about the same,@
and we see no occasion to alter our fig
nres. The condition Of our market, as
shown BY The statement is about The,
same. Mess Pork, is retailing in small
OTIS in grocery establishments. Lard IS
ess firm as the season advances, end
he same may be said Of butter.

The MiddIeboro;(M lass Gazette gives the

re- The vote taken 10 Baton Rouge
last Saturday upon the appointment d
delegates to a Parish Convention with
the view Of nominating a State Senator
in com JUNCTION with East FeIiciana and
West Baton Rouge, resulted in the &C.
lection Of delegates favorable to the nom-
~ination of ALEX. BARROW, Esq, of this
parish. This, beyond question, secures
the election Of that gentleman, as no
candidate with a certainty of defeat
would be foo1-hardy enough to enter the
ring. AS an outsider, although a friend
and admirer Of Mr.. BARROW, we cannot
refrain from congratulating the Democ-
racy upon their choice. W. have known
Mr.. B. for years, and know him to be an
honorable. upright gentleman, who will
be an honor to the body to which he as
pires, and a credit to the constituencies
who will elevate him to that position.-
The advocate says after the result of the
in that city was known;
But when the polls were closed and
the results known, the enthusiasm of the
victorious party, foryet}ul Of the usual
for keeping the town quiet,
broke out into the widest Notifications of
success The winning side stood the
treats, and the defeated ga'|an,Iy faced
the music Of unco, king bottles and cIiuk-
ing glasses, until these festivities had ec.
faced all traces Of the late divisions.

The STATES AND sold BUcK."-

The " STATES " AND "OLD Buck
The Washington States, a Democratic
journal published at Washington City
seems disposed to "pitch into OUT wor'
thy President. When Democratic pa
pers, and one right under the Presidents
nose, speak so harsh|y Of the Admins
ton, it seems to augur that there is
something rotten in Denmark. When
anti-Administration or opposition papers,
feel disposed to censure or condemn the
President, his official acts or his Cabinet,
it is put down to the feeling which actu-
stes those opposing Democracy. We
have no disposition to meddIo in the
matter, but give the " document" AS we
find it in the columns of a contem-
porary:

morous for an increase Of taxation to

dacious ambition. Much profession of
fidelity to State rights was INDUCED by

redeemed by the protective tariffs aud

The country was instructed to rejoice
over the remuneration of the right search
by Great Britain, and, in the midst O:
the triumph, American waters and sub

The Poor FoREIa our

The Poor FoREIGNER.-Sinco our
magnanimous Administration has placed
itself in queer ~antagonism with the for
eigners right to American citizenship,
into which they have, by thousands been
: manufactured by the great friend Of
the foreigner, the Democratic party, they
have been continually in search Of ON
plea to dodge the position, and throw,
# possible, the blame elsewhere. But it
won't go down. Tie foreigners eyes
are becoming open to the fact tina: Dem
ocratic profession Of brotherhood and
equality are all CANNON aud moonsl'ne.
The latest dodge of the " friends Of the
poor foreigner" is to rake up and rehash
the worn out oaths Of the deiuncl K. Ms
to show the poor de|uded creatures that
the Democracy never took such oaths,
and that they are, after all, in spite Of
Mr.. CAss, the foreigners friend. Try
some other dodge, that wont work. The
Louisiana Democrat advises the adop-
ted citizens to exact penance from recu-
SAINT Know Nothings before listening to
them, to make them get down on their
knees and repeat the obligation buck
wards!! The editor of that paper
may have been one Of those WHO were
accustomed to 60 down on thei~ knees
and beg for {; reigners votes, such verify
is com,oon with modern Democracy. 1t
were more in keeping with national hon
or and spirit were Mr.. CAss and some
others who maintain the same doctrines,
male to 60 down on their knees and re-
cant ever, word and thought they may
have expressed or entertained as the for
eig'ers rights at home and abroad as an
American citizen, and made publicly to
confess that "once a citizen, always a
