lnTWashington news.

WASHINGTON, Nov. rs.
According to the reported conversation with
Mr.. Wise, recently in this city, he has no
doubt of existing secret societies in various
portions<of Ohio and elsewhere, the members
of which are bound by horrid oaths, not only
to rescue Brown, but to take revenge on those
who were instrumental in the conviction of
him and his associates for their offences at
Harper's Ferry. The letters which the Gov
ernor has received upon this subject are from
men in whose word he places the fullest con-
.idence, but whose names will not be revealed
by him. 1 was doubtless the belief of the ex-
istence of such societies, numbering, as was
reported to him, thousands of members, for
the purpose eelated, that led the Governor re-
Gently to call, out an additional number, of
troops > - 60 SO -
Several clergymen yesterday in their Thanks
giving serinans earnestly condemned the ex-
prcssiens of sympathy for Brown and his asso-
ciates and declared that their execution was
due to justice and the enormity of their crime.
The See,y.iof War received the following
dispatch to day from Lieut.. GEN. Scott, dated
Straits of Fucia, Oct. 2T, and sent by way OF
L~eavenworth. 5 fr aa
"Two days ago I dispatched from Eft. Town
send a communication to Gov. Douglas propos-
ing a temporary adjustment of the basis sug-
gested by the President in his instructions to
me. There has been no answer yet. No
doubt the proposition will be accepted. Every
thing is tranquil in the Island" @

BUT TRUE.

A few days since, Mr.. Jas. II. Beadle, of Hunts
vile. Alabama, called on us and gave US permission
to publish for the benefit of suffering humanity, The
astonishing cure which had been effected in the case
of his wife by the use of DR.. Hance's Vegetable Ep-
ileptie Pills. He informs us, that the time his wife
commenced using the medicine, her system was SO
entirely prostracted, by the number of spasm she had
undergone, as to reduce her weight to 100 lbs. Since
she has been taking the pills, she has entirely got
over the spasms and has gained in weight and bodi-
ly health; She now weighs at least 200 lbs, and de-
claaes she is in better enjoyment of health than ever
before in herrlife. Mr.. Beadle also related the case
of Mr.. Harrison Lightfoot Of the same town, who
has been eAtirely curedsof the worst form Of Epilepsy
by these same pills. Mr.. Lightfoot's case was SO bad
that he never passed a week Without having an at
tack, often falling down in the street He has not
had an attack for more than a year Mr.. Beadle
thinks that if the pills ever fails in curing a-case, it
is for the want of proper perseverance, on the partof
the person in taking them, as he feels assured from
observation in the case of his wife, that if they arc
taken for a sufficient length of time, they will cure
auy case. Sent TO any part Of the country by mail,

Practical Abo1itionism.

Anumber of prominent Abolitlonists from
The East. who are in attendance upon the Evan
gelieaI Abolitionist Convention, now in session
In this city, are stopping at the Richmond
Heass. Among them is the Rev. G.tB. Chez
yer, of New-York. Yesterday at dinner, a ne
qro was discovered at the table, sitting at the
eft of Brother Cheever, while at his right sat
a couple of Boston ladies. Some ladies at an
other part of the table called the attention of
Mr.. Taber,. one of the proprietors, to. the fact,
and expressed the very common feeling among
persons not practical Abolitionists, than it was
net agreeable to sit at dinner in company with
a negro. Mr.. Taber at once directed one OF
the black walters to have the black removed,
and it was done accordingly. The Abolition
ists,gamong whom the negro was sitting, mani
tested aereatosympathy for the black, and de-
manded feelinglyc if the rules of the house
banished him from the company of his friends
and companions at the table. Upon being IN

PrepafasohB for Browns Executior

Nov. ~.
The New York Herald's Harpef's Ferry de-
spatch,. referring to the execution of Brown,
saws the most stringent regulations have been
adopted in regard to the presence of civilians
at the execution.
All applications for passes for civilians to a.
tend within the military lines are refused by
the. Governor, on the ground that it would con-
fict With the military programme. He said
that Oh ecitilians could not, under any circum-
stances, be admitted within the military lines.
The outer line would be nearly a mile from the
Not a word Of what j ohm Brown may utter,
if he should say anything, will therefore be
audible to the men forming even the line next
the galiows.
Gov Wise statedsthe cause of this exclusion
of all persons, other than the military, to be
that IN the event Of an attempted resette, an
order to FIRE upon the prisoner will be gwen,
and that those within the lines, especially those
sufficiently near the gallows to hear What Brown
would say, would inevitably share his fate.

How to Use Lime.

Lime as food for plants, il required ID
very small quantities, and for this purpose
should be applied in very minute doses, and
frequently. Shell lime is better than stOh5
lime trhen wantsd for manure. When re-
quired not to feed plants, but to dssompoas
othef materials in the soil, such as inert or
ganic matter, then larger doses may be Civ
en-, and this should never be mixed with
any manure Of a nitrogenous kind-sieh sS
night soil, phosphates, guano, or barn.yard
manure. Lime may be mixed with salt id
the manner we have SO often recommends
ed, or with sour muck, or any other organ.
ic matter not readily decomposible. Never
apply lime 10 the soil within day or two
of the time when manure has been applied.
When barn-yard manures have been deeply
buried in the soil, a light top dressing Of
lime may be used after the blowing. This
will gradually sink, and when it meets with
and assists in dsconposing the manure. the
grass in rising will be absorbed BY the in.
cubemt soil.-[Ths Working Farmer.

What the Opposition Should Do.

The Baltimore Patriot, speaking Of the
best policy for the Opposition to pursue in
1860, truly says:
"Ifthe Opposition party desire TO elect
their President in ls6o-if the great major
ity of the country wish 10 end the rule of
the present unworthy, un-American admin
istration, neglectiDg American interests and
given over to mere popularity hunting at
the South, and ofice-seeking everywhere
the Opposition party will have TO UNITE
They will have to AGREE upon some MAN.
Let platforms go. Every one knows what
they are worth. Each citizen has been dis
glsted in learning how far they may be trust
ed or relied on. II is clear that If the ooun-
try chooses, some national, conservative
American man can be elected by the peo-
DIE. Shall we have such an one? Shall
we put up and vote for one who can be ad-
vocated and voted for in each and every
State of this Union? Or shall we repeat
the miserable farce of the last Presidential
slectionP 1t makes no difference whether
we are agreed on every detail or not. Does
il make q difference to the bundle Of fact
ions which agree on one thing-tO call them.
selves united "the Democracy" Does it
make any real difference to them that their
composite elements are as wide asunder as
the poles, upon this very question of Slave
ry? Why then should We forever hold of?
We have no chance; they have no chance,
but in sensible union to do what we can
for the country, and let the eternal, never
ending question Of Slavery work out its own
solution"

FCrinoline was originally the name Of
Partisan nodiSte-ons Madame Crinoline,
who kept set of dress-making rooms in
the Rue de Ia Paix. 1t eventually came
into use to denote the article mos. in repute
at her establishment. She it was who, BY
the invention Of hsrse hair woven into q
sort of cloth and manufactured into petti-
coats, enabled the fair sex to dispense with
that clumsy abomination which always
placed them, il net in headlOng hurry,
certainly in busde. The name of The
pstticoat was given from that Of the inven-
tor, as has frequently happened; the crino-
line, the pstticoat, was derived from Crino-
line, the dressmaker.

| Horace GREELEY IN SAcRAMINro.--Mr. .
Greeley arrived in Sacramento on Monday
evening by rail from Folsom, at which place
he was met by an escort of Sacramentoans.
The Standard thus describes Mr.. Greelsy's
appearance: .--- .-..- .,r.-. ,-,Y
"Mr. Greeley is about fifty years Of age;
stands nearly or quite six feet high, ,:and ID
tOlerably broad in the shoulders. His hair
is flaxen and is considerably scattered be-
low the crown and around the back and
sides Of his head. The top Of bis head ii
entirely bald. His forehead il bfoad and
massive. He wears . whisker under his
chin, and his eyebrows so white and deli
cately defined that it is difficult nt FIRST sight
to discover the existence of that ornament
tai portion Of the face. His gait is peca-
liar. He lifts not only his feet, but his hips
when he walks, and keeps his head bent
come distance in advance Of his BODY
These remarks are made, not in derisisn, but
because so much has herstofsrs been said
on this head by the Atlantic press, that ma

The Chilcothe Bank Hob.

III the press be any index TO public sen
timent, the people of Missouri-and, indeed
the whole cOuntry-are remarkably sount
on the subject of prompt and unqualified
redemption OF Bank paper. Not paper
in the State defends the Chilicothe mob
The subject has received attention, and re.
buke, from papers Of the States. The fol.
lowing from New York paper, is too good
to be lost. We make only couple of ex-
tracts. Speaking of the man who thought
it just and proper to ask the Bank TO re-
deem its promises 10 pay, the paper says:
"Now observe the beauty Of the poetical
justice meted to this miscreant. He thought
to make run upon the bank, and he had
to make run away from it. He thought
TO make the specie reserve of the bank less
and he had 10 make himself scarce. He
thought TO diminish the funds of the bank,
and he found himself nowhere. But while
we admire the beautiful equity which chang
ed his countenance instead of his bills, and
sent him away empty of hard cash, we can
not withhold our need of praise from the
Banking System into which it is evidently
organized. From the prompt attendance
Of the indignant citizens, it is clear that
they were used to the work. A part,
doubtless of the machinery of the institu-
tion as essential as the President or Direc-
tors, and much more essential than the
scales.
A wink from one of the officers was suf-
fcient 10 summon them TO the rescue, TO put
10 flight any varlst that should insult the
Bank by asking it to pay its debts. Now,
what beneficial change the general adopt
ion of the Missouri system would work in
our Banking system! Is it not obvious that
failure is impossible under itP Suspension
of bank could not occur, for the suspen-
sion of the creditor would avert the posi-
bility Of it. When churlish creditor could
not draw specie without drawing a halter
al the same time, it would produce great
and effec'ual change on his dispostion.-
Truly, Missouri must be the Eden of bank
srs, and Chilicothe its Paradise! Where a
bank cannot stop payment because it never
begins, and the voice and will of the BROTH
erhood allows and protects IFS course, there
S the city of the Soul for all that numerous
md valuable class who spend their lives in
cheating each other and call it business
We look for an emigration TO that better
han golden region which shall take the con-
'eit out OF that to Pixies Peak. Wall street
will become bowling wilderness, if it do
lot save itself by taking leaf out of the
ledger of the Branch Bank of the State of
at Chilicothe.
