Petersons Ladies National Kagasine for
October The October number of this Maya
zine, now on our table, is gotten up in a
style that does credit to its publishers, and
cannot fail to please its patrons. The only
drawback to this periodical that we know
of is its great want Of punctualty. Unlike
Cooley, who is certain to come--thc National
is almost as certain not to reach you. Out
of the nine numbers published this year We
have received but four, and we are Of the
opinion that a lady once paying her two
dollars and not receiving more than half the
numbers, during the year, would not be like
" to subscribe again. At the beginning of
the year we published the Prospectus, for
which we were to receive the periodical regu-
larly, but shall not be guilty of the same fol-
ly again unless the proprietor will promise
VS. to mend his ways.

Col. Kunkcl Against his own
State.

HN-A the last session of Congress bill
passed both Houses, says the IIagerstown
Herald and Torch, donating public lands to
the several States and Territories which may
provide Colleges for the benefit of Agricul-
turc and the Mechanic Arts, but was vetoed
by the President. The bill was returned to
House, and upon the question shall the House
pass the bill in spite Of the veto, the vote
stood yeas 1o5--nays 90 not two-thirds vo-
ting in favor of it, Of course it was lost Al
though Maryland has an Agricultural Col
lcge, which is struggling hard in its infancy
for success, against many adverse circum-
stances, and may yet 90 down for want OF
proper encouragement, Mr. kUNKEL, we'd
ded to the Administration as Ephraim Of old
against this bill. Although millions ofacres
Of the public lands, the common heritage Of
oil the States, have been given to new States
for Railroad and educational purposes, Mr.,
kUSKEL refused to vote single acre to his
own State, one of the most renowned of the
Old Thirteen, for the promotion of Agricul-
ture and the Mechanic Arts, two Of the no
blcst pursuits in which her industrious popu-
lation are engaged. Further comment is I'M
necessary, and we leave the people, at whose
hands he is asking a reelection, to determine
whether such man is fit representative Of
their interests in the Councils OF the Nation !.

RACK "a few days after Mr.. Kunke's
nomination for Congress, by the Democracy,
Mr.. Hoffman addressed him note challeng-
ing him to II public discussion Of the political
issues of the day, as often rs the time between
that and the election would permit. Two
weeks have elapsed, and Mr.. Kunkcl has not
yet returned definite answer to Mr.. HoT-
man. Why is he thus procrastinating p
Does he intend to decline the challenge, or is
he delaying the answer with tho view Of al
lowing as few joint discussions rs possible :?
The thing looks suspicious. Ifhe is not afraid
of his record, and has the intellectual ability
to sustain himself in conflict with Mr.. IIotf-
man, why don't he meet the responsibilities
Of his position as becomes clivarous oppo-
nent? Week before last the Alleganiau
threatened to teach us that prudence is the
better part of vaor"i in regard to this matter,
but it seems almost impossible to get our
neighbours man up to the mark. Sir him
