GJ'The rumor that Reid, of the Xenia News,

In the first place, we do not believe Reid

Out Of respect for the writer's feelings which are

particularly characterize it. In the second

fears Of Reid by stating that the little tuft Of
hair Immediately below, and south Of Reid's
nose more resembles the tip of tabby's tail than
a R"banner," to say rothing about "an army OF

PRoyoKNG.-Several errors of spelling
and grammar occurred in Mr.. Halls report
Of the Central High School, which was in-
serted in our paper on Thursday oGthis week.
We were absent at the time it was printed,
and We improve the first opportunity of re.
lieving Mr. Hall from any annoyance it's i'm,
perfect publication may have given him. 1t
is perhaps unnecessary to inform the public
that one of our compositors, whose knowh
edge Of the printing business is probably
equal to his scholastic requirements, was
the unfortunate individual who unwittily at
tempted to create the impression that Mr..
Hall was unequal to the tasks of reporting,
in correct language, the condition Of the
School over which he so worthily presides.
In the hurry of going to press" our typos
performance escaped the argus eyes of the
gentleman whom we had detailed to "read
proof" Weregret this-not so much because
few persons might think Mr.. Hall litter
ate, for the execrable spelling, for which
printers are responsible, would exhonorate
him-but because it gave the public imprest-
ion that we were unpardonably ignorant of
our profession. The typo aforesaid" is, we
trust, sufficiently penitent, and we have as-
surance that he will not again attempt to

HowLNG Tho Lawrence correspondent Of
the Leavenworh Herald gives a graphic &C
count Of the proceedings, etc, Of the Oonyen.
tion which nominated NJ. j. Parrott a delegate
to Congress. For a while the friends of Con.
way and Parrott were a tie. and neither being
willing to recede, IL was thought best TO take
up new man. "Parott's friends would not
listen to this. Parrot. was the better tacticiap.
and towards noon Of the day, he was seen hob.
nobbing with weak Conway men, when the ob.
serving could readily see how the wind was
blowing At length the friends of Parrott in.
sisted upon another ballot, when their candi
date received the nomination by very small
vote" What occurred in the evening we will
let the correspondent relate in his own way:
The successful candidate, aud his friends. and
especially the Leavenworth delegation, had
grand ioliioation last night, keeping up their
howls I'LL late hour. The stock of whisky in
Lawrence is perceptibly diminished
The competitor Of Parrott, Mr.. Conway, was
very much put out. He stated that he had been
a Whig and then a Republican, had always
been consistent man; while his competitor
had been every thing by turns, and nothing
long," was mere trickster, and nothing else :;
bat If the Republicans of Kansas were willing
to trust such a man, and honor him over tried
friends, he would not complain

GJNo democratic candidate in Kentucky
met the slave'code issue more squarey and
denounced 1t moro vigorous sly than Dr. Pcyton
in the Second District He advocated Con
gressional nondutervention in the broadest
sense, and declared that no Congressional in
teryenton for slavery was necessary. The
consequence was he was reelected to Congress
by a large vote, from close district. The New
Albany (Ind) Ledger, in remarsing this fact.
says:
Instead Of Sinking and diIly .dallying with
this question, az did some other Democratic
candidates for Congress in Kentucky, Dr. Peys
ton met il boldly on every stump--his opponent
taking strong protection ground-and the pco
plehave triumphantly sustained him. Some
ofthose gentlemen who evaded this issue, and
now Rnd themselves defeated may learn use-
iul lesson from these circumstances.

A HUMAN DEMON IN lTALY.--The Italian
correspondent of the New York Times says
that earnest attempts are being made to de-
tect the assassins Of General Anviti, the
wretched minion of the Duke of Parma. To
show what provication those who killed him
had, the writer narrates the following:
Anviti and certain Pietro Carin were ri
walls for the hand of q certain Luisa -;
Carini was victorious. On the evening of the
decision, Anviti, standing at the door Of q
barber's shop, heard pistol fred off near
him, and caused Carini to be arrested, and
menaced the barber and his apprentices with
torture and imprisonment unless they affirmed
that they had heard the shot, and seen Carini
pass the door. They, on the contrary, de-
clared that they had heard no shot, and had
not seen Carini during the evening. They
were all imprisoned, but still persisted in
their denial, while Carini so clearly proved
an abb, that Colonel Hszon, President of the
Council of War, publicly declared his inno-
cence. ~yr- ,s s.-J...-.
The barber and his friends were kept in
separate cells, and one morning one of them,
Giorio Barbierf, the father Of a large family,
was found strangled on the floor Of his cell
The other prisoners were advised to avoid Q
similar fate. One of them, on this, thought
he had heard the shot, and had seen Carin
fire the pistol; and Carini, with two supposed
accomplices, was condemned to death by the
Auditor of War. The family appealed to the
Duchess, laying before her the infamous facts
She simply wrote at the foot Of the sentence
"Let it be executed" and Carini was shot
This is but ono of tho tiendish acts of the Ex-
Colonel. Let it be borne in mind where the
lamentabls vengeance of the rabble Of Parma
is censured. -,-..s- .......

which reached Halifax that the wrecked vessel

were made by all the public functonaries on

vessels lying at the hsrbor. The result is al.

A DIsUEIoN JOURNAL JUBILANT OVER HAR-

in late issue, under the head of Mirabile
Dictu," has the following:
"Strange things are come to pass. Five
short years ago, and the Democratic press and

from Maine to Mexico, and from the Atlantic
TO the Pacific Oceans, proclaimed their halle

forever and day, of the great nigger I've

never, never, never was the glorious Union
so firmly set upon its broad basis of equal
right and equal protection North and South.
Peace was to reign supreme; tariffs were to
disappear: taxes were to be even the Amer
lean eagle was to spread his wings and soar
aloft, and license was no more to be seen, but
liberty was to live forever. The faintest init
nation Of hint that all these things might
not come about just yet, all at one time, was
received over the whole land as the insanity
of croaker, and as disaffecton next to
treason.
| "In three short years these wild, fond
dreams of many were scattered to the winds
for we found ourselves in the midst of the
sharpest, fieroest and most direct conflict with
the North, We had yet experienced. Every
principle was trampled under foot by thes'
sweet lambs, cur brethren Of the North; every
agreement laughed at and the bold issu'
made of Might vs.. Right. They had tn,

Of our claims and contempt Of our assertions

The Mercury then goes on to show that the
South nowindorses its views-that the Uniol
must be dissolved.
