enemy, and saw the farmer at his pow, the
bl ,cksmith at his anvil, and the women at
their churns and spinning wheels Babies
and boys crowded around to hear the mu.ic
and see the pretty trainers, with feathers
and bright buttons. Of course, none of
these were in a proper position to be shot at
"Where are your soldiers = they asked.
"We have none," wos the reply.
"But we have come to take the town."
"Well, friends. it lies before you"
"But is there nobody here to fight J"
"Ho; we arc all Christians"

RAYENNA, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1859
Rev. Peter Car right.

We find the. flowing story of the veteran
Cartwright iu the I IIIadeIphia BulEGn.-
Peter has often contested SsDgomon county
with Lineob, ,-once as candidate for Con.
gress. About the year 1925 he wos elected
to the legislature OF Illinois, md he gives
number OF illustrations Of his difficulties in
political lie. This 10 one. Let him speak.
fYr himself:
The first time ! ran for Office in Sanpa.
mon county, was on the north side of the
Sangamon river. as we say in tbe east, e.ec
tIoneering, or rather try ing to get acquainted
with the people, Tor was at that early day
grea, stranger to them. Passing thro ugh
bushy point OF undergrowth. near a ferry
where ! inteodrd to cross the river, I heard
some one talking very loud. refined nv
horse to listen. ] heard some one saw th,t
Peter Cartwright was ID raecsI; and so
were al! Methodist preachers; they would
teal horses, Ond that it was a scandal to the
country that such man as Cartwright should
oh'r Tor representative OF the county, and
that the first time he saw him, inten ded to
whip him for impudence. This surprised
me little, ard / looked around for some
way to pass without coming in contact with
'hs company; but there was no path that |
could see, and the brush was SO Thick could
not get through. So summoned all my
courage and rode boldly up and spoke to the
men. There were six of them; and as I
learned but one OF them had ever seen me.
81 said, "Gentlemen, who is it among you
that is going to whip Cartwright the fi:st
time you see him !" The man who had
threatened spoke out and said:
81 ain the lark that's going 10 thrash him
we'll"
Said |, "Cartwright is known TO be much
of man, and it will t4ke man to whip
him, mind you"
"Oh, no." said he, 81 can whip any Meth
dist preacher the Lord ever made"
"WelI, sir" said I, "you cannot do it: and
now tell you my name is Cartwright and
| never like to live in dread; if you really
intend to whip me, come and do it now"
He looked little Con used, and said, "Oh,
you can't fool me that way; you are not
Cartwright"
"WeI," said I, "ihat is my name. and
am candidate tor the legislature, and now
IS your time. Ii you must whip me do it
now"
He said,
"No. no, you are not Cartwright at all;
you only want to fool me-"
By this time we had moved slowly to the
boat, and when we got on it he broke out 10
fresh voIIey Of curses on Cartwright.
said to gentleman on the boat,
"Here, hold my horse," aud stepping to
the cursng disciple, said sternly to him:
"Now, sir, you have to whip me as you
threatened. or quit cursing me-. or will put
you in the river, and bsptise you in the name
Of the devil, tor surely you belong to him."
This settled him; aud strange to say,
when the election came off he went to the
polls and voted for me, and ever Afterwards
was my warm and constant friend.

GThe Aurora Borealis, that paradox OF

been fully explained and accounted for. A

thereby derived oftheir tfssural disquisitions.

For YOumg Men 10 Think Of.

In the latest OF his preachings upon
"PopuIar Proverbs" Dr.. Holland closes a
thoughtful and suggestive discourse on sea
eual pleasure. with the following earnest
remarks TO young men, which deserve to be
thought Of:
"Oh il this world could rise out OF this
swamp OF sensua;iiy, rank with weeds and
dark with deadly vapurs-fuIl Of vipers,
thick with pitfalls, and lurid with deceptive
lghts-and stand upon the secure heights OF
virtue, where Coda sun shines, and the
winds OF heaven breathe bIundiy and
healthully, how would human lite becomes
blessed und beautiu !! The great burden Of
the world rolled off, how would il spring
forward into a grand career Of prosperity
and progress! This change, ios this coun'
sry, rests almost entirely upon the young
men of the country. 1t lies with them
more than any other class, and more than
oil other classes, to say whether this coon'
try lhall descend still lower in its paths to
brutality, or rise hisher than the STANDARD OF
ils loftiest dretms. The devotees OF sense,
themsel, cs, have greatly lost their power
for good, and comparatively few will change
their course oi lite. Woman will be pure
IL men will be true. Young men this
great result abides with you # you could
but see how beautiful flower grows upon
the ,horny stalk OF self denial, you would
give the pleut the honor it deserves. II it
seem hard snd homely, deepiSe it not ; for
in it sleeps the beau'y Of heaven and the
breath of angels. II you do not witness the
glory Of its blossomings during the day oil
life, it's petals will open when the night Of
dea comes, and gIndden your closing eyes
with their marvellous loveIiness, and fill
your soul with their grateful perfume"

GRAND jury PREsESFAESr.-We had inten-
ded TO give last week the presentment of the
Grand Jury at the recent term of our County
Courts, but it was unavoidabIy crowded out
After setting forth that action had been taken
on ten bills, they remark;
And while on this part OF the subject the
Grand Inquest cannot help expressing their
regret that quite a number of trifiing cases
are constantly returned to the Court by the
different Justices of the Peace and they do
hereby present the same evil, and res
pectiully ask that the Court use all proper
means to abate the nuisance. This grand in
quest are well aware Of the popular doctrine,
that the people in their local capacity have a
right TO ''regulate their own affairs in their
owl way This, as well as every other doc
trine policy which attempts to approach a
standard of justice and equal rights has boun-
daries We dare not DER leap, without becom-
ing tTansgressors OF that very standard of pTin-
ciple We would seem to appreciate. And
while in present capacity we, in common
with the rest of our fellow citizens, regret We
ry much that we have often been put to shame,
in witnessing in number of instances that
several of our conservators Of the peace, were
so miserably intoxicated and profane that we
deem them disgrace to good old Com
monwealth if not to nearer associations, 9TH
ers of the same class prostitute their position
by using the name OF the Commonwealth IN
bringing frivilous actions against persons
have them arrested and brought before them
upon Insignificant charges with great array
of dignity and authority bat afterwards they
labor with great zeal to have them quashed
and settled contrary TO all law upon the sub
ject. Others again, as above cited, often an
noy this Honorable Court with like petty char
| ges. which are of no interest to the court, nor
of any benefit to the morals Of the commuui-
ties in which they originate. These as we'll as
other apparently Insignificant matters are
preying disease upon the comm onwealth,
and if no check is offered by those who hold
the remedy, we will find that our virtue will
soon be gone.
