phia, Pa, have surpassed themselves by com
uencng in weekly issues, the republication of
Sir w alter SCOTS novels at the low price of %
ceuts a number, or five dollars for the whole set,
comprising 80 stories We very glad to see
SO cheap an edition of rovels SO much superior
in their tone aud morals-to say nothing OF their
genius-to the watery trash that is written aud
read we suppose hy foolish people now days -
Better read the Waverly novels, and reread them
good taste over the blood and thunder of yellow
covered sensation novels. The Petersons have
thus far issued ten numbers, containing each a
novel complete viz: Old Mortality, Woodstock
Waverly, Ivanhoe Rob Roy, Qlentin nurwand
Guy Mannering, kenil worth, The Abbott, ard
The An,iquaFy: aud would advise all our
readers to send to the Messrs. Petersons for set

Mr. Teas also exhibited specimens of the gen
zine Allen Raspberry and Red Prolific
A sun mer Turnip shown by Ii Strxttan, with
out name, attracted some attention from its supe-
rior size and appearance
Brlnckle's Orange Raspberry shown by Mr. :.
was much admired both for size and flavor Cane
not hardy; requires protection through the win
ter.
The Everbearing Raspberry exhibited By DR.
Boyd, was the centre Of attraction, not only from
its fine size and flavor, but for its great bearing
qualities, producing fine fruit from the middle OF
June until frost; continually good for Market

cold water, applied at any time during the heat
Of the day.
Teas recommended watering in the evening -
Thought it lost too much by evaporation when
applied in the morning
Coney and Smith would water al any time
temperature, therefore, by applying cold water
to the roots of plants in the heat of the day,
tended to equalize the temperature and promote
the health OF the plants.

Strawberry plant this season, 700 berries He
wished to know if any one could beat it.

Kansas Ciaims.-The Legislature of Kansas,
ut its last session, appointed Commission con-
sisiing of one Democrat chairman, and two Re-
pubicans. to go into different parts Of the Terrific
ry, and take evidence OF the losses sustained by
the people during the difficulties which afflicted
them in 1855 and 1856, and report the amount
due each claimant.
The amount claimed fer losses sustained
nu cunts to one million, two hundred and fifty
thousand, nine hundred dollars and stxty-sx
cents, one hslf of which is fraudulent aud will
not be allowed by the commissioners.
ne crops taken or destroyed amount in the
aggregate to thirty-nne thousand and fity-two
collars and sixty cents. Three bundled and for.
d horses, four hnudred and five head of stock
s.ou. and fifty three houses destroyed. The
re State men surpassed the prosavery men in
cattng horses, but in the destruction of property
and driving of stock the other party excelled.
The report of the Commissioners will present
ne most complete and accurate history of the
troubles Of lS55-'5G, ever yet made pubc-the
causes, progress. evils and the results of the wars
il Kansas, the suffering and exposure attending
them, with the details of pressing, stealing so
prevalent at the time.
The largest claimant against the Territory for
losses sustained, is Col S. W. Eidridge propri-
etor OF the Free State Hotel, at the time it was
destroyed he was awarded about forty thousand
dollars. The smallest award is that Of a gentle
who claimed over two thousand and is to
receive only niue dollars.
Congress will be called upon to pay all these
just claims, and it should be done.

Democracy Backing UO,1n The telegraph
reI orts that Previous to the preparation of the
letter TO our Minister at Berlin, instructing him
TO demand Of the Hanoverian government the
surrender OF Mr.. Ernst. Attorney General Black,
~ the request of the President, rendered al opin-
ion il the case maintaining the general right OF
expatration incoDtestable, and that in regard
TO the protection OF citizens in their rights at
home aud abroad, we have no law which divides
them into clai ses, or makes any difference what
ever between o native and @ naturaiized citizen =
They may therefore, go forth with equal security,
over every and through every land unde.
heaven including the country in which the latter
we're born Either Of them may be taken for o
debt contracted, or q crime committed by him,
but both are absolutely free from all poiitcol OBJ
legations to every country but their own
They are both American citizens, and their ex-
elusive allegiance is due TO the government ofthe
United States.
In Judge Blacks opinion, the Hancverian
government cannot justify the arrest of Ernst by
showing that he emgrated contrary to the laws
Of his country, unless il also be proved that
the original right of repatriation depends upon
the consent of the natural sovereign and this last
proposition he is sure no man can establish.
So speaks the Attorney General, but the ques-
ton is will the Executive and his Cabinet carry
out the opinions of their Judicial adviser =
Judge Blacks opinion is correct, bat he has no
power 20 enforce his opinion. Mr.. Buchanan aud
Gen. Cass, have the power to protect American
Citizens as advised to be their duty, but they
have already given their policy to the world, which
is the reverse, and it is scarcely probable they

Resolved. That in the language of the Su-
preme Court Of the United States, 1.-The right
