MANUMIssIoNs Or SLAyEs.-A very interest

Court, and as it is national in its character, we

politicians generally avoid.

WEATaER AND CRoPs IN EH0LAED.--A letter
Of late date from London, says "The pros.
pects Of the grain crop are very good. With
moderately fine weather the yield Of wheat is
expected to be as abundant as at any period, but
owning 10 the length of straw it would suffer
greatly from continued rain or sudden storms.
Thus far the heat Of the season has been beyond
the average, but its electrical conditions have
undergone violent changes"

Uurtuilment Of Mail service In Ohio.


The people in all parts of Ohio are reaping
the bitter fruits of the spendthrift Administra-
tion Of President Buchanan, in the curlailment
Of the mail service ON long established routes.
Daily mail routes we see noticed ia various
portions Of the State are being cut down to
tri weekly, and tri-weekly to semi or weekly.
Such important towns as New Lisbon and Gal
hpolis no longer have daily mail from any
quarter, and We notice that many towns Of less
nSle now get buta twice week mail service.
This spasm of relrenchment at the expense
Of mail facilities, causes much indignant re-
Rark in the communities outraged The Gin
einnali Gazette says
The storm of indignation raised by this in
saUe movement, will yet so startle the authors
of the scheme, we trust, as to induce them TO
retraee their steps. The people of Southern
Ohio will not meeky tolerate such wrong.

subject from the victims of this treatment.

F1RE-Loss OF LlFE.-A house near the
Rock River bridge, on the Chicago and
Rock Island Railroad, was burned last FRI
day evening about 10 O'Clock, and a little
boy about ten years old was consumed il
the flames. The person who occupied the
house is an employee of the road, On that
evening the family concluded to visit one
of their neIghbors, and putting their little
son to bed, they shut up the house leaving
quite brisk fire burning in the stove.-
During their absence the house took fire and
was consumed. Last Saturday the remains
of the little boy were found.

A SPECIMEN OF SLAVE SrATE.-In regard
to railroads, the State of Arkansas has per-
mitted slight innovation upon barbarism.
A single road is dragging its slow length along
from point opposite Memphis toward Little
Rock. Forty miles of it have been in opera
ton for several months; the regular time of
the passenger train in making that distance is
six hours! There is no daily newspaper
published in the State! There is no general
system of free schools, and from one third to
one half the white children are growing up in
ignorance. So much for this debatable ground
between civilization and barbarism.

AID FOR FATHER CHINIoUY's CoLoNY.-In
New York, quite an effort is making to help
Father .Ehiniquy and his French Canadian
Colony at Kankakee, Illinois, out of their
enbarrassments. Up to the 10th inst, the
sum of $1,O42s6 had been contributed in
New York city alone. Of this, $475 is to be
appropriated to the payment of very pressing
debt on Father Chiniquy's property. Articles
Of clothing for his people are also being freely
contributed. Father Chiniquy is now in New
England, presenting the needs of his colony
before the Yankees, and is receiving some aid.

w The Registry Law Of New York,
although imperfec. in some respects, acted as
such check apsn illegal voting at the recent
election, that the Baltimore papers demand
one for that city. 1t is strange that, while
we record our title to an acre of ground or a
village lot, our right to vote, or our liability to
nave that right rendered nullity by the
illegal vote Of another, is not guarded but by
the summary action Of a board of election
officers, at moments notice! Every con-
sideration of equity and justice, having a
bearing on this question, speaks strongly in
favor of Registry Law. The demand for
such law is as urgent in Iowa as elsewhere.

fW The wires tremble with the details OF
the old womanishness of the chivalry. 1t is
plain enough, now, why Virginia did not
furnish a soldier for Mexico, when every other
State rendered its regiment. Virginia is
afraid of its shadow. Col. Davis is no doubt
regular old "fuss and feathers" and the
sooner Gov. Wise supercedes him by putting

Virginia cease to make herself ridiculous.

Abuses of the Elective Franchise

1
We copy in another column, from tn,
Albany Atlas and Argus, an able articl,
condemning the use of money to influence
elections. This is an evil not confined to New
York, but prevalent all over our boasted fret
and enlightened country. The West ha'
caught the contamination, and, in proportion
to its wealth and the interest of its elections
is perhaps as deeply stepped in the crime-fo1
crime it certainly is-as the East. The reform
suggested by the atlas and argus will receive
the hearty cooperation of all men who desire
the ballot-box to be made, as it was originally
intended, the faithful exponent of the
unbought opinions of the people. Nothing
will so insidiously and yet so surely undermine
our liberties as this growing disposition on
the part of the people to yield the public trust
into the hands Of faithless and corrupt men.
There is another evil, nearly allied to this,
which, we believe, is rather more prevalent al
the West than at the East. 1t is usually
termed electioneering," by which is meant
the personal solicitations of candidates in
their own behalf Electioneering has become
an almost invariable custom, and many men
to whom it is really dstasteful feel compelled
to resort to it when nominated for Office,
merely because it is expected of them. It's,
indeed, ridiculous how some candidates for
petty offices conduct themselves. They visit
all parts of the county shake by the hand
men to whom they would not speak on
ordinary occasions-anxiously inquire after
the health of their families-kiss their babies,
praise their farms, their stock, &C., and lie
and degrade themselves in other ways-for
what ?-for votes And this is not all. They
"button- hole" and make personal appeals to
as many voters as possible, besides delivering
pop-gun harangues at country school-houses,
for the good oftheir country themselves!
Wethink it time this contemplate system
of men proposing themselves for office, and,
after receiving, by bribery or unblushing
effrontery, the nomination of some political
party, worrying men for their support, ought
to be discountenanced. The remedy is in the
hands of the people. Let them use it. Let
the people attend the primary meetings of the
parties, and resolve that no professional
Office seeker or no man who obtrudes himself
before them, for any office of honor or trust,
shall receive their support. In this way,
modest WORTH" which never asks reward,
will be sought out and promoted, and our
rulers will be men of honesty and integrity,
and the people will in consequence be happier.

squabble between the politicians and Office

master Cook has been again overhauled by
the Department for misconduct in his office,
and is again cited to answer the charges. He
had successfully refuted his enemies up to
this time, but the Postmaster Generals agent,
sent recently to Chicago, has accumulated a
large amount of evidence from the Office
