Sir Having noticed an article, in

ing passage, I feel it my duty to give a
statement of the facts of the case. DIR.
Belfoy says, speaking of the Plain
dealer:
But the Editor Of that paper charges Us
with proving recreant to our contract with
Vernon Springs. We admit that VIC would
not comply, and can give good reasons for
not doing SO. When we found that the par
ties who went our security were irresponsible,
we would have nothing farther to do with
the matter. We supposed the men with
whom we made the contract were response
bic, and did not know to the contrary, until
We had been warned by men in whom we
had the utmost confidence. We do not de-
sire to 60 into personalities, and mention
names, but We can, if forced to do SO, give
the names and alse 60 to the Court Records,
and from them copy enough Judgements un-

A Political Lecture by aPious Wife

"A L O'ELcdi Lecture u! d Iohs Wile
The following we find in the Buffalo
Republic, and as there are Wide Aw2kes
here old enough to have wives, perhaps
they may read the lecture with profit:
[Scene In bed, face to the wall
Strong smell of coal oil-Time three in
the morning.)
A pretty time indeed for you to come
home sir! Where have you been all
night! You smell as ifyou had been in
search of Symmens' Hole through a tar
barrel. Talk Of 'suplhuretted hydrogen
or superanuated eggs! They aint any
where. Say, where have you been?
Here I've been lying awake tor the last
five hours waiting for you to come
Now l want to know where you have
been all this time? Wish I uouldnt
bother you-IeN me IN the morning?
l want to know now; it's near enough
morning to know where ones husband
has been all night and particularly if
he comes home perfumed clear through
as you are. You mustn't good aoite me
That won't answer. Suppose you were
a woman and your husband should go
off every night in the week and come
home as you do and-I wish you'd get
up and let some fresh air into the room
or / shall sufocate what would YOU
say? Don't you imagine there would
be a row in the family? Been acith the
Wide Awakes? I should think as
much. You're wide awake fool, that's
what you are. I've always thought you
had about sense enough to parade the
streets with those niger lovers. Why
did I marry you? That's a pretty
question. Didn't you swear that you'd
shoot yourselfif didn't take pity on
you? i am sorry l didn't allow you 20
shoot or hang or drown yourself. 1t
would have been the best thing ever
did in my life. What is it smells so.
Nothing? Don't tell me nothing; it
never smelled SO in the world Had to
carry a torch2 That's sweet business
for man who pretends to be the father
ofa large family Next thing I shall
expect to hear Of you is that you've
been splitting rails for general circu :
ton. I don't kuow anything about
politics? Don't eh? l don't want to
know nothing about politics if I have to
neglect my family aud carry sinking
torches for the benefit of lazy man in
1llionis who is trying to be President
Want to;sleep? I thought you were
q Wide Awake, suppose you've kept
awake to night on whiskey haven't you2
Where have you been all this time; the
town clock has just struck three. Been
to Isnaaoa'sda to praise u liberty pole?
That's q sweet note.-Why didn't the
Wide Awakes of Tonawanda raise their
own pole? I'expect Republicans are
scarce in that section and you've been
Tying to make great splurgs. Well
you cant fool any body. I believe |

scenes transpired. One in particular excited
a good deal of mirth. AS Barksdale was ur-

IN the gallery was observed to become very
much exalted. She coughed, made signs and

leaned far over the balcony. and in an audible
whisper exclaimed, s'David, David, change

A LADY AFTER HUsBASD.-An engagemen,
was enforced in the town of Yates. the present
week. in rather a peculiar, il not an entirely :
Sreeable manner. One Daniel J. Houseman
removed to Michigan from Yates some four or
iive Years since. While residing In Michigan,
ms wife died. Subsequently he became ac-
quainted with young lady in that State, and
1t is said made an arrangement of marrjao,.
with her. Be that as it may, be returned 10
Yates last fall and has since resided there
Last week the Medina stage carried a lady
passenger to Yates, who took quarters NJ
Chamberlain's hotel. She soon sent fer HORSE
man. He obeyed the summons, and almost
Immediately after his entrance into the room,
was accosted by the lady, who asked if he was
willing to perform his engagement. AT the
same time she drew a six barrelled revolver.
and, pointing it at him, stated that she would
give him the contents If he refused. Under
the inspiration of the six shooter added Il,

pitted that he was willing. The instrument
OF death was Immediately lowered and fho
couple were soon on their way to the residence
OF the father OF Houseman. What then trans
pired was not known to our informant. Houso
man is about 30 years of age. The lady, whose
name is not given, is considerably younger.
The matter caused much interest in that town,

THE LITTLE HERo.-Last week we noticed
the exploits of little boy named Hoey, in
signaling and preventing freight train on
the Pennsylvania Railroad from running into
a large rock which had fallen on the track We
now learn from the Mountain Echo, that. at the
age Of five years. during the temporary ab
Sence OF his parents, he rescued his little sis
to", fnen an infant in the cradle, from Il horri.
lie death, by Seizing her in his arms and
rushing from the building in which they then
resided, and which lay some means had taken
fire and was entirely destroyed. IF this be
true, and our informant claims to have OBJ
iaige', II from the father of The boy, it is an
additional evidence of the fact that the lad in
question has the true elements OF manhood in
his composition, and if life is spared 10 him,
is bound TO make mark in the world that
time cannot soon obitcrate.

WHOLE FAMILY POISONED. citizens ot
Naperville. Dupage county, Illinois, have been
having mad dog excitement lately. One day
this week, says the Chicago Press of the 10Th.
gentleman whose name we have not learned
went to drug store to get some poison for
the purpose of exterminating part of the ca
nine community, and while there purchased
some chewing gum for his children. He put
both packages in his pocket and returned
home. By mistake he gave the wrong pack.
age 10 his children, and baited the dogs with
the gum, in consequence of which the former
very soon died. Not long after, his wife also
expired from the effect of small portion of
the supposed gum, and the man himself took
dangerously Ili-lle having taken "a taste OF the
poison under the same mistake. 1t is also
stated that the child OF another man has ,.,en
poisoned in the town by eating soda cracker
prepared for dog.

resolution of inquiry into the general exect-
tive management of affairs. viii give point
and pertinence to the Presidents celebrated
letter to Pittsburgh, in which he deprecated
the modern practice Of sending money out
from Washington to carry the elections. No
doubt the President would himself hesitate TO

party and the government, and therefore he
ought TO 5a thankful that these abuses can be
blown up without his personal sgency, beyond
the writing Of that letter, and perhaps brief
examination by the committee. The commit

little solicitude and uneasiness.

TFRRIR.G AFFLIcTIoN.-A man by the
name of Mos 5 M'Carty, in Jay county. Ind,
some time al October cloped with a young
woman of the neighborhood, leaving his wife
and his eight children totally unprovided for
and dependant upon themselves for support.
The mother was almost heart-broken by this
cruel desertion of her husband bat she was
doomed TO trials still more severe. Soon af-
ter his departure, her eldest child. Esther Ev-
eline. aged l6 years, was attacked with the
putrid sore throat, malignant form of the
scarlet fever, and after few days of intense
suffering breatiIed her last. Jonas, an inter
esting little boy of five summers, was next at
tackled with the same disease, which soon ac-
compished its work, and he was buried beside
his sister. Next followed Moses Wilson. the
eldest boy. aged twelve years, who died on the
evening of November 9th, and the next NOR
ming Sarah Jane. aged nine years. died also.
On the 9Th OF December, the youngest child,
In its second year, was carried off by the same
disease; and on the 25th little John died also.

THE1R oWr TESTIMONY.

Judging him from the statements of his own
supporters, remarks the Lancaster Union. Mr..
Foster, the ssDemocraticv candidate for Gov
ernor, must be entirely destitute of any def
mite principles, and the most double-faced
man that ever was presented for the suffrages
of the people. Mr.. Lewis G.. Cassidy, Phil
adelphia lawyer, orsted from the District At
torneyship because he received the return of
election through fraudulent votes cast in 1856,
and who proclaimed himself to be sspoliti-
clan" being called upon to speak in the Con-
vention after the nomination, after declaring
that he knew Gen. Foster well, said of him
''He is bound TO no particular issue; he is
ssconncctcd with no particular set of people
''Lecompton and nti-Lecompton men may
s:stand up and look him in the eye." This GER
tainy presents the candidate in the light of
man who has independence of opinion
action, but seeks to make fair weather with
men of different views by making his decara-
tions accord with the notions of the persons
with whom he may be in contact at the time.
The same ambidextrous advocate made his
candidate occupy position, yet more equiv
say :-..The people of all sections of this great
commonwealth, protecfionists and otherwise,
ssmay stand up in October, and say here is our
ssman.'' Now that d man can be both Le-
compton and Anti-Lecompton-P -Protectionst
and Free-trade--at one and the same time,-
involves an irreconcilabiIity which it would
puzzle the asfuteness and recklessness of a
Philadelphia lawyer and politician to explain.
Honest, straightforward citizens and voters
cannot he led to support candidate who at
tempts, like the clown in circus, TO ride two
horses at once with their heads pointed in op-
posite directions. Such performer must in
evitably fall to the ground. After presenting
his candidate in this ridiculous attitude, Mr..
Cassiday went on to say to the Convention -
ssIf you want to see the embodiment of Demo
':crofic truth, look upon this Henry D. Foster"
1t is well he qualities the word sstru:h'' with
the adjective democratic" That is very
different article from the struth' which is re-
cognized among men as being the ..enuine ar
ticle. 1t is spurious and deceptive. Ii pal
tiers with the people in double sense. It was
exhibited in the Kane letter of 1S44-the final
ity of the compromise Of 1850, in l852-the
false pretense of leaving the people Of the ter
ritories to decide the question of slavery for
themselves, in 1856. 1t now takes the four,
as embodied in Gen. Foster, of both Lecomp-
tonism and pt0nism-Pr Protection
and Free -trade-and brazenly asks the people
10 trust it in this double aspect. s'The De-
mocracy'' has so often succeeded by practi-
cling political iraud that they now boldly a.
vow it, and think they can still impose upon
the people
