Deer Underrround Temperature.

The temperature Of the Artesian well in
Columbus at the depth of 2575 feet, the deep
est well in the world, has been ascertained
by Prof. Wormley to be Ss degrees, Fahren-
heit. The State Journal says:
A Walferdin's registering thermometer,
contained in glass tube flied with water,
and this tube enclosed in an iron one nearly
filed with water, and closed perfectly tight
was sunk in the well, few days since, TO a
depth CT 2,475 feet, at which place it remained
for twenty-five hours it was then lowered to
the bottom Of the well, a depth of 2,575 feet
and there retained for forty minutes. Upon
the withdrawal of the thermometer it was
found to have registered $50 Fahrenheit
Which may be assumed to be the temperature
at the bottom of the well.
In Paris, at Ithe depth Of 80 feet ther-
mometer has continued without variation at
q temperature of $50 Fahr. for nearly two
centuries. Taking this as correct for Colum-
bus, the increase Of temperature below this
point of constant temperature, would be 10
for every seTenty-one feet.
Many observations have been made in the
temperature Of mines and wells, and they all
show an increase Of heat as we descend be-
low the surface. There is however, much
discrepancy as to the ratio Of increase.
The mean rate of increase, from results Of
six of the deepest coal mines in Durham and
Northumberland is 10 for every fourty-four
feet. Observations in several Of the lead and
silver mines Of Saxony gave 10 for every
sixty-fve feet. The increase observed in
sinking the Grenells well at Paris was 10 for
ffly-eight feet. In the Artesian well at Mon
dorf on the frontier of France and Luxen-
hourg, the water at depth of two thousand
two hundred feet had temperature Of 93'
F., showing an increase of 10 for fity-four
feet. The artesian we'll at Louisville, KyY
at a depth Of two thousand and eighty-si1
feet, showed a temperature of s22' F., be-
ing an increase of 10 for every sixty-seven
feet.
From the above reports it would appear
that the temperature below Columbus did not
increase as rapidly as in most other places
where observations have been made.

bis reasons in the Adrian Exposltor for now

thirty years an active Democrat, in a recent

against the Democracy, and in favor Of Lin
coin.
When the Chicago Zouaves visited Troy,
the venerable Gen. Wool paid them a very

seen body of military equal to the Chicago
ZOuaves for perfection of drill.

DisunIon and St0cks----CharlestOn ClRmOr.
The recent prOnunciamento of the Hon.
Lawrence NJ. KeitL of South Carolina, in
favor of DisuniOn on the election of Lincoln,
frightened not even an old woman, except the
n. Y Herald That now fierce Breckenridge
advocate cried in chorus with Keitt, and tried
to get up astock panic in Wall street. but
it was no 60. Keitt launched his thunderbolt
against the Union, and yet the stock market
did not tremble. Bennett declared the dis
solution of the Union to be a fact already de-
termined on and stocks went up Ifthere
was really any danger Of disunion in case
Lincoln is elected President, as Keitt, Ben
nett and such Bobadils blow about, and the
spectators in stocks believed it United
States stocks would show the belief by their
fluctuations. Instead Of this, they are grad
ually rising and the whole market has shown
an upward tendency for some time. The dis
union bluster is a mere political trick, bald as
it is brazen.
That the people of South Carolina will
cling to the Union so long as Uncle Sam has
dollar in his Treasury, is shown by the eI-
asperatiOn Of the pap-suckers of Charleston
at the recent suspension OF work on the Gus
tom House in that city, by order of the Sec
retary Of the Treasurer. Nearly two nil
lions Of dollars have been expended on the
new Custom House the Federal Government
is building at Charleston, and by common
consent it is pronounced a failure. The great
part Of the marble used in it is of. inferior
quality, the architecture is abominable, aud
yet the order to stop work is stigmatized by
the Charleston press as "calamity," as sin
famous, aud a shameful step Threats of
dissolution of the Union are lost in clamor
when the teat of Federal pap is withdrawn.

The Executive axe has fallen upon the
neck of Thomas Miller, Postmaster Of COlum-
bus, fer the second time, and John Dawson,
Chairman Ofthe Breckenridge State Executive
Committee, has been appointed Postmaster in
his place. Mr.. Miller is one of the proprietOrs
Of the Ohio Statesman, and as one of the
publishers Of that Douglas organ has doubtless
made himself obnoxious to the Administra-
ton Of J. B. His successor is an old and highly
esteemed citizen of Columbus, and the decap-
itatiOn of Mr.. Miller only widens the split
of the Democracy at the centre. 1t is thought
the CORY axe is being raised over the
POstmastersa at Dayton, Toledo, Sandusky and

A clear majority is 1872 We believe every
one of those printed in the first column will
go for Lincoln and Hamlin, giving him l79
votes, or q more than a majority. We do
not despair Of either Delaware or California.
So figures the New York Tribune of July
3Oth. The New York Times takes view of
the Presidency in Congress as follows:
Agreeably to the Constitution, when the
returns from the several electoral colleges
have been read by the Vice President in the
presence of the assembled Congress, and it
shall have been ascertained that no candidate
has a majority of all the electoral votes, it
becomes the duty of the House of Represen-
tatiTes to choose from the three numerically
highest names on the list the future Presi-
dent A quorum Of two-thirds is required
for this purpose, the delegation of each State
casting a single vote; and the successful
sspirant must have majority of all the
votes. In the present Congress, the delega-
tons as they stand would unquestionably dis
tribute their votes as indicated in the sub
Joined table:

It is an established fact that during the
Administration of President Buchanan, New
York has become athe first slave-trading port
Of the world" The policy he has inaugura-
ted has practically repealed or nulli6ed the
old rest rictions upon the African Slave Trade,
and from New York to New Orleans his Off
GERS, agents and Courts wink at or directly
countenance the infamous and inhnman
traffic. The officers and crews Of vessels
captured with slaves on board are discharged
with scarce the mockery of an examination,
and slavers are permitted by such o. S. Mar
shals as Rynders, the old rowdy and unprin-
cipled Captain Of the notorious Empire Club,
10 leave the port of New York almost as
openly as vessels engaged in Legitimate COM
merce. Within the past few months steam
vessels from New York have been added to
the feet of American slavers, and so active has
the business become as to give a new impulse
and phase to American commerce.
Is proof Of this fact needed? The New
York Post Of July 2sth furnishes it. It pub
fishes list of eighty-fve Slavers under the
American Flag, from February, 1859, to July
l6th, 1860, to which may be added some half
dozen gone through the Sound, the names OF
which could not be obtained. Some twenty
vessels, the compiler of the list says, have
been detained under suspicion a great many
others have cleared from European and South
American ports.
The Administration Democrats in the Sen
ate during Mr.. Buchanan's Administration
have given no aid to the passage Of the
bills introduced by Senators Seward and vii
son to more eGectually suppress the Slave
Trade-a trade which the New York Post
says "has so noiselessly developed ITSELF
stripped our wharves of its shipping and
made New York the great center ofthe trade
in African Slaves" And adds the Post:
aThe honor of thus diverting our ships to
this degrading business belongs exclusively
10 the present administration. When the
future historian shall ask, What did James
Buchanan accomplish during his term Of the
Presidency the answer must be, He revived
the slave trade; in everything else that he at
tempted, be failed; not single measure that
he recommended was ever approved by the
other branches Of Congress or by the people
but to his eternal shame be used the power
with which, as the chief executive officer Of
the nation, be became invested, to break up
and disorganize the police Of the seas, and
thus 10 revive traffic which ell civilized ma
tons have agreed in denouncing as piracy in
its most reprehensible form
ave do not envy him the reflection with
which, from the brink Of the grave, he will
look back upon this croWning work Of bis
career asa statesman and as President Of this
republic. Who shall chant the praises and
bless the memory Of the successor OF Wash
ington who re-opened the slave trade, and
made HAmerican a word Of horror TO the mil
lions Of poor creatures who are the natural
victims OF this unhallowed commerce?'

The Democratic State Committee recently
held a meeting at Worcester, and decided to
hold a State Convention at Worcester, Sep
tember 9Th. The Boston Traveller says:
Five members of the Committee were alb
sent, and there was one vacancy. A motion
to admit Breckenridge men as substitutes for
absentees was rejected, II to Il. A resolu-
ton endorsing Breckenridge and Lane was
rejected by a like vote. By the same vote the
Committee rejected propositions of Brecken-
ridge men to have large ratio of representa-
ton, that the Convention might be small in
numbers, and the ratio was fixed as usual
one for each town and city, and one addi-
tional for every twenty-five Democratic votes
at the last State election. This is considered
a triumph by the Douglas wing

VETERANS IN THE FIELD.-Mr Stephen Gran
dali. of Tiverton, was ninety-three years Of
age last February. On Friday last he han
died the scythe in the moving field with the
vigor of youth and '1aid his swath" hand
somely from early morning until eleven
o'clock in the forenoon, when he took the
fork and lifted up the new-mown grass to
receive the curative and genial influence of
the meridian sun. Mr. Crandall has labored
through the "haying season" as steadily as
any able-bodied workman, and his physical
condition is that of health, activity and abili-
ty to perform the duties of the haymsker
with the alacrity and promptness of four
score of years of age.
Mr. William Francis, of Fall River, R. l.,
is also one of the representative men who
"hold out to the end He is,in his eighty
fourth year, and on Thursday last led the
mowers around the field, turned his swath,
and thought nothing of it. He "works like
beaver" every day, and can put many a
man of half his years to the blush.-FdH
