Our Periodical Vfcissitudes.

The Republic is again approaching its
quadrennial perils. Whatever may be its
condition at other times, it is bound to have
its alarms and dangers every fourth year.
1t may be Irregular in all else, but it must be
regular in that. We have a class of patriots
who could not comfortably exist without
having The inestimahle privilege of saving
the country at least once in every four years
Th- favorable opportunity occurs simulta-
neously with the election of Chief Magis-
trate. The alarm of impending danger is
sounded at the same instant that candidate
for that Office is put forward. For instance,
a Tennessee contemporary whose patriotism
we could not be induced to question, in treat
ing of the - Occasion and the Man " thus
sounds the tocsn: "No one, in casting his
eyes over this widespread Republic, at the
present time, can fail to perceive that our be
loUed country again IN imminent peril. There
are strong and powerful elements at work
which are portentous of evil to the safety of
the country and the perpetuity of the Union.
The enemies Of the Republic are again attempting
10 uprOOt Tie pillars Of a nation haAotced By the
memory of the great and good men who
framed it, and by the innumerable and inesti-
mable blessings which it has conferred upon
us as people, And from this till the soc
casion " is gone, and the man" is either
elected or beaten, there will
Horrors on horrors accumulate"
The enemies of the Union are swarming
throughout its borders; every bush conceals a
traitor and every civil district stinks with
treason to the constitution and bristles with
the bayonets of its toes But the people are
not left without hope. These stern and self
forgetting patriots, taking up the sweet song,
Dulce ct decorun, est pro patrid mort,
bare their brave bosoms 10 the iron storm,
aud beat back the serried legions that sweep
to ruin and destruction. The Union is saved
and its enemies put to route and to shame.
Happy country!
or course the concdents between these
perilous straits the Uuion gets into with such
systematic periodicity and the Presidential
elections, is purely accidental. There is no
psychological affinity between patriotism
and money. Eighty Millions have nothing
in the world TO do with saving the Union
and the constitution. If Que follows the
other with the CELEBRITY and certainty OF fate,
of what Specification is III The country can
afford to indulge it's heroic defenders in
grand four year jubilaiion. What are their
carousals to the glory of saving the Repub-
lie? Absolutely nothing. Besides, the
plumber OF one campaign must be disposed of
to make room for the spoils of the next. These
campaigns are constitutionally quadrennially
inevitable. The organic law of State has
fixed it SO. There is no possible way to
avoid it, and the people had as we'll make up
their minds to huzza for the constitution
and the Union and Eighty Millions for the
next twelve months.

Is Bill Comfy One of the Harper's Ferry
Insurgents7

The Dayton journal Of Friday, when it was
supposed that the guilty parties at distance
from Harper's Ferry were not even suspected,
was loud in its demands for punishment upon
"aH who had any connection with IT," II tbon
said, "any man who kne0 of the plot and
failed to make use of his knowledge to frustrate
the designs Of the traitors ls verify guilty Of
the outrages committed and should not be al
lowed to escape scot free." But no sooner had
few questions to Old Brown by Mr.. Yallan'
digham brought guilty knowledge aud guilty
action nearer home than the Journal changes
its whole tune, aud pours out what was inten-
ded TO be terrible denunoiAton Of Mr.. V. tor

further Developments may bring home to him
or his friends some connection with il, and
therefore the msledction It uitered9 When a
man is not hurt he don't generally vince so.-
We hope Gov. Wise will look to this matter -
We do not accuse Bill Comfy Of doing anything;

BREAoH OF MARRIAoE PROMISE The breach
Of marriage promise" case, which occupied the
attention Of tho Superior Court during tbe
whole Of last week, was finally closed on Sat-
urdsy last. TIE parties reside in Washington
township. The plaintiff was Miss Rebeccu
Thomas, young lady Of prepossessiDg sp-
pearance, and rather inclined TO be "prelty"
and eyed about 90 years; the defendant was a
Mr.. Joseph s. White, whose appearance did
not indicate him to be very wicked fellow,
though we judged from his countenance that
he was a man Of "strong likes and disllkes,"
which leading quality Of mind will probably
account for "breAking his plight" with Miss
Thomas Mr.. W. rejected Miss t., and mar
ried another lady in the neighborhood, which
was bad enough; but, II seems, did not stop at
that. He gave as an excuse for his conduct
that Miss t. was not chaste This probably
had more TO do with bringing this case into
Court than the mere breach Of promise.
The damage claimed by plaintiff was placed
at $4,000. Mr.. White having the reputation
Of being,worth about 10000, il wns thought
that Miss t. was entitled TO the half of it,
Miss. T. employed Messrs. Gunekel q strong,
and s. Craighead, and Mr.. W. procured the
services Of Messrs. ?. P. Lowe and JnO. How
ard.
We cannot give even an epitome of the evis
dence adddced by the parties, great deal Of
which would be improper to publish in a news
paper, and much Of that sdduced by the de.
fence was unworthy Of the party offering It.
The engagement Of the parties to marry was
clearly established; and II was also proven that
the lady had procured aud made her wedding
clothes; and, indeed, discharged gentleman
who was anxious TO WOO her, stating that she
was engaged to Mr.. W., and did not think il
right to receive the special attentions Of any
other gentleman. No case was ever more plain.
ly made out In our courts
On the other hand, the defendant attempted
to prove that the lady was not chaste; that was
the reason he had abandoned her. In this he
most signally failed. It was shown that from
a child up she had sustained an excellent repus
tation; that during the six or eight years White
had waited on her, she had conducted herself
without reprOach, and that she appeared in
Court with as good reputation as any lady In
the country.
The jury were out about FIVE hours, and we
learn that there was no discussion as to a ver>
dict for the lady, but as to the amount of dams
ages. The wealth of the defendant, It seems,
the basis Of the damage. 1t was Fl
nally settled, $50 we learn,) that W. was worth
about $4,000, and it was determined to give
Miss T. about the third Of that amount, and
the verdict was named at $2,666
A motion for new trial was made, but we
have not learned that Judge Haines has gran
ted it.

THE NEW WONDER.
Peter losses Hair restorative


THIS Hair Restorative is now acknowl-
edged to he the best invented for all diseases Of
the Hair and the Scalp, and It has worked wonders
wherever used. Several of our citizens have tried
IT, and speak IN the highest terms Of its curative
properties. The following is one among the many
certificates just treeelved by the Proprietor
DAYTON, sept. 9th, 1858.
Ma. p. JosSE:-For several years past, from some
cause, hair has been gradually falling out until
entire badness threatened us. We have tried va
rious remedies, but without any good result. We
were induced to try your "Reatorstive" by hearing
1t highly spoken OF BY those who had used It, and
who assured that 1t had the effect Of bringing a
new and vigorous grswth Of hair upon their heads.
We have used It, and Its good effects are plainly Wis
ible in the renewed growth Of hair where we were
fast becoming bald. We cannot recommend the Re
storative too highly. Yours, truly,

AN EXCITING STREET SoKNE.--At about eight
o'clock on Saturday evening. the cries Of fe.
male, evidently in great alarm, calling for
"helpl help" "save me p murder |" and using
other starting EXPLANATIONS, was heard issuing
from an omnibus that was being driven rapid.
~ down 9Th street towards Brown, down which
street the driver hurried his horses until he
drew up in front Of the residence of one Of our
most respectable citizens. There were two per-
sons in the Bus, "a man and women,) both
strangers. The man had his arms around the
women, apparently forcibly OBTAINING her
both much excited-the women crying "mur,
DER at the top of her voice, and asking the by
standers,-a number of whom had by this time
collected--if they were "citizens Of Dayton
for Gods sake to help herl" She said she was
not crazy, as the man from whom she was
struggling to get free, said she was, but that
they were going to murder her She was told
to be calm, for no one should harm her.
In the mean time, some two or three persons
in the crowd caught hold Of her and lifted her
down out of the Omnibus; the man, after a Its
Tie rough handling, having unloosed his hold,
ne also gov OUT on tnt blue Wulkp huu dppehfeu
almost as much frightened as the woman. The
woman, between er cries for "help !" "God
save me r. ''murderI" de-, now called out the
names of Mr.. and Mrs. H., the persons before
whose house the bus had stopped. The gen.
tleman was not at home, but his lady, who had
heard the noise and come out of the house, soon
recognized the voice and person as those Of a
dear sister in law from Pennsylvania, and who
had Just arrived in the 1880 trainl
Upon inquiry we learned the lady had quite
recently recovered from a severe illness, and
that the excitement and fatigue Of the journey
she had just accomplished with her husband,
had proven too much for her strength; and
while on the way from the csrs to the residence
of her Dayton friends, her temporary insanity
assumed the violent form related above.
We are pleased to be able to say that the Af-
tiicted lady has recovered.
