The Opposition Nightmare.

The following from the Louisville
Democrat is both true aud o ated.
''The terror inspired by the name of
Douglas in the Opposition ranks is high
iy amusing. They scribble away very
complacently, until they think of the giant
of Illinois, and then their hair rises on
end like porcupine qaills. They think
they have it all fixed Until they look up TO
the Northwest, and tho thought strikes
them that perhaps Douglas will be the
nominee next year. That spoils their
calculations and deranges their whole pro-
gramme. The great point the Opposi-
tion South have been trying to make, APP
pears from the question they ask of our
candidates: Wni you support Douglas,
if he be the Charleston nominee
When they get an affirmative answer,
they hold up ther hands and roll up their
eyes in affected horror. Squatter Sow
ereignty ! they exclaim. In the North
the Opposition are still more exercised
| over the name of Douglas. He is the
lion In their path. They are waiting
with nervous anxiety to see II their alli es
! 10 the South Can't dispose OF him. They
give out word along the line that he is
dead, and feel happy; aud next day they
repeat it, until they have him dead So
often that his demise is not credited at
| all. We don't often see a paper of the OPP
position without an allusion to Douglas,
in evident alarm. BY the signs Of the
times, judging by their apprehensions,
Douglas is to them dangerous man. Ii
he be the nominee at Charleston, the op-
position see their overthrow in advance.
Work away. we warn you, both North
and South. 1t is the game you have to
play. Before you stand any chance to
beat the Democratic party. you must dis
pose of Douglas. You see it; but the
Democracy see it too, unfortunately for
you; and they see through all your clap
trap and humbug."
This disease has become trebly violent
since the publication of Douglas expo
sition of the line between federal and local
authority. They charge him with being
a pro.slavery man, and howl it all over
The North, but then it occurs to them tha,
he is gaining friends in the South, and
they shout In terror "Oh no he is not d
pro- slavery man, he ia black Republic
can-the worst kind of black Republl
can" But the people know that he il
neither the one or the other. No mai
in this nation occupies SO high position
, as Douglas.

Singular Eject OF the Aurora
ESIpG1siS.

Almost every enc, of course, witnessed
the aurora borealis on Sunday night
week. It was regarded by most persons
as the most brilliant ever seen in this lat
ltude.
But its effects on telegraph lines were
most remarkable The Superintendent
of the Canadian lines telegraphs as fol-
lows in regard to it:
81 never, iu an experience of fifteen
years, in working telegraph lines, witness
ed anything like the extraordinary effect
of the Aurora Borealis between Quebec
and Farther Point last night. The line
was ir most perfect order, and well skill
ed operators worked necessarily from s
o'clock last evening till one O'Clock this
morning to get over in an intelEgib.e
form about four hundred words of the
report per steamer Indian for the A $50
ciated Press, and once the wires were
SO under the influence of the Aurora Bor
calls, that it was found utterly impossible
to communicate between telegraph sta.
tions, and the line had TO be closed"
The effect farther South was less noticea

Louis Napoleon's Speech.

The following is the report of the
speech made by the Emperor at the grand,
banquet given by him upon the return, to
Paris of the French army.
On Sunday evening a grand banq net
was given by the Emperor to the princi-
pal chiefs of the army. About three
hundred persons were invited. At the
close of the banquet the Emperor spoke
las follows:
"GENTLEMEN: The joy experience at
finding myself again with most of the
chiefs Of the army of Italy would be COM
plete ii it were not tinged with regret, to
behold soon the dissolution Of the ele-
ments of force so well organized and or-
midable. AS a Sovereign, and as Com
mander chief, thank you again for
your confidence.
"It was hattering to me, who had new
er commanded an army. to find so much
obedience on the part of men who had
great experience in warfare If success
has crowned our efforts, | am happy to
attribute the greater part of it to the
skilful and devoted Generals who render
ed my command SO easy, because, ami
mated with a sacred fire, they have, neces
sariy, given an example of duty and a
disregard of death A portion of our

1t is said the officers as well as the peo
pie were delighted that he awarded tn,
greater part of the honor of the victorie
to his army instead of appropriating i
to himself. 1t is indeed refreshing t,
know that Louis Napoleon has been one
in his life affected by modesty.

did not notice our meeting The same
cause which prevented us from noticing it,
prevented US from hearing any consider

been expected. being considerably larger
than the average for the last fe " years The
best men from nearly every township were
present, making meeting of much more

Mr.. ARcHBoLD made few preliminary
remarks, and introduced Mr.. R1NEHARI

Melancholy Case of Depravity.

On Tuesday o. asst week Saul Ruggles
was found guilty OF burglary at ST Clairs-
vile. He is the son of the late Benja-
min Ruggles, for lS years a Senator of
the United States, from Ohio. In the
earlier portion of his life Saul gave evil
dence of the talents to attain position
even higher than that so long maintained
by his father lie was surrounded by es-
timable friends, he was well educated, and
his father was wealthy, No young man
in this part of the State seemed to have
a more brilliant future before him. All
things seemed to have combined to make
easy his road to emineuce.
He acquired u love for intoxicating
| liquors which in short time robbed him
of his self respect, and of the respect oi
his friends. He descended lower and
lower in degradation until he became the
ve-iest vagabond; repeatedly committing
acts for which u rigid execution of the
| law would have scus him to the peniten-
tiary. Every means was employed fol
his reformation, but without the leas
avail
His best friends are now willing to SCI
him imprisoned, believing that he is dan

Destruction of City by an Exrsn-


The English papers,, received by the
Etnd, announce the entire destru ruction Of
the ancient city of Erzeroum, in Turkey.
by repeated shocks o earthquake within
the last three months. The lst earth
quake occurred June lst, aud letter from
one of the missionaries of the American
Board gives vivid description of The
first great shock. He says:
The first shock, which was not very se-
we're, was felt about 8 O'Clock "A NJ,
June | and at 10 O'Clock A. M. the fol-
lowing day came the fearful earthquake,
which laid in ruins 1000 houses aud
nearly destroying 500 more and inidr-
ing 200 others, leaving. according to
the accounts of Turkish officials, over l,
500 houses unharmed;. but / do not be.
lieve there are 90 houses IL, Erzeroum as
sound as they were before the earthquake.
The shock WAS not only felt throughout
the city, but the villages on The plain, and
even at Hassan- Kallah, twenty miles to
the east.
According to the official returns. $50
dead bodies have been taken out from the
ruins, about two hundred wounded, and
60 are missing The heavy shock which
did the mischief, is said to have continued
about eight seconds, and it was followed
by three others less severe the same day.
Shocks, more or less severe, were also
felt at intervals during eight consecutive
days, since which there has been perfect
quiet, and the work of building and re-
pairing is now going on asrapidly as pos
sibie .s. tgy
1t is singular fact that the destruc.
tion was almost entirely confined to the
Mosem quarter of the city and only
twelve Christians lost their lives. None
of our Protestant friends were Injured,
though several barely escaped with life
One woman, sister ofour native preacher
b. Hohannes, feeling the waving to and
fro of the house seized her two little
children and escaped in time to see roof
and wall como down with a era h where
she had been sitting. Part Of auother
house adjoining ours was crushed, but
no one was harmed The two. mission
houses were injured, but not very seri-,
ously.

Our Candidate For Senator.

Mr.. CowDEN, our candidate for State
Senator, is an intelligent farmer, living
near Millwood, in Guernsey county. He
is honest and upright, and is highly es.
teemed by his neighbors. If our Iegisla-
tive bodies had more such men as Mr.
CowDEN, and fewer of the gas-factory class
we would have better laws and fewer OF
them. To show the estimation in which
he is held at home it is only necessary
to say, that he was nominated over some
of the best men in Guernsey county, with
out any effort on his part.

The Fremont Messenger.

This excellent paper has been purchased
by our friend NJ p. Bean, formerly of the
Crawford County Forum. We are heart
glad of this. The Messenger has lately
been edited with much talent. it is true,
but was certainly deficient in discretion.
A fight has been kept up in the Demo
cratic party in Sandusky county, in which
the Democrats did all the fighting, and the
Republicans reaped the benefits From
our acquaintance with Mr.. BEAN we are
confident that he will reconcile these diff
culties, and make unit of the party in
that county. He has Democracy enough
to attempt it, and ability enough to ac-
complsh it. We wish him unlimited sue
cess.

e A man named seeley Zimmerman

A man named Seeley Zimmerman
was murdered near Waynesburg, Pa, on
the 25th ult., by gang of negroes. A
feud had existed for some time between
the negroes of the vicinity and the citi-
zens of Dotysburg, which resulted in an
attack by about 20 negroes on 5 or 6 of
the whites, and Zimmerman was murdered
during the combat. There is great
deal of excitement in regard to it. Sew
eral arrests have been made.
