apple the other day a sample of keg full
which he caused to be securely headed up
and sunk to the bottom o! his mill pond last
November, where it had lain undis,urbed
through the winter and until abou, the l llh
of this month. Ga bringing his cache of
fruit to the surface and opening it. every APP
pie was found to be free from ret, and as fair
and unwIinkled as on the day when taken
from the tree.-CtWemo,t, y. H., EoWs.

just twelve feet five inches. Lincoln is six
feet four inches long and Hamlin is six feet
one inch long, but neither Of these gentle
men have any other Recommendations

The Sentinel tells Us that Lincoln and
Hamlin have no other measurement than
their length. 1t is evidently very proud of
the shape of its favorite candidate. the Little
Giant, who has greater measurement than
his length, being about five feet long and
eight feet, six inches and two barle! -corns

DfprrnpAxuEs IN KENTUCKY pEp.-The
threatening aspect Of things in Kentucky, allu-
ded 10 last week, has changed, and peace has
been restored. After driving out Hanson, who
had returned after the Hrst exodus to look az
Ger his property. the mob element was rife FOR
further disorders and the gallant Clay became
the object Of threats and menaces Mr. Clay
found Il necessary to plant himself upon dis
tinct ground from the radicals, as Hanson Fee,
and others are called and to assert his deiermi-
nation to stand his ground, came life or death,
Upon the great doctrines of the Republican
party. But for Mr.. Clay's bold aud manly
course IN meeting the mob spirit, every man
having an odor of Republicauism about him
would have been driven from the State After
the destruction Of Hanson's property in the
most wauton and malicious manner, the mob
suffered ts discretion TO get the better oft, and
q deliberate consideration Of Mr.. Clay's posi-
tion set forth in bis appeal and printed haud-
bills, they expressed themselves satisfied, and
disbanded.
The N. York Evening Post publishes a letter
written by Cassius NJ. Clay to gentleman il
New York, dated April Sd, in which, after re-
hearsiug the difficulties following the return oil
Hanson TO Berea, of which We have already
published accounts be says:
In the meantime, en- Tusdny, in Rich
mond | took the stump and disabused the
public mind of the calumnies against me,
aud left for home. But the excitement con
tinued, and was more denounced. 1ester-
day meeting was held to consider me
had my appeal TO the citizens Of Madison
opt in handbills, and had them circulated
they were read discussed--some for, some
against me- When the meeting took place
the Court House conld not hold all the
people, nor could my mformants hear much I;
but speeches we're made-some for, some
against me bat no resolution was passed
against me. My handful was read, and
they adjourned into private caucus. 1t is
believed that they win go TO Berea to-day
and finding no one (for have told my boys
to retreat, leaving their wives and children
at honey they will dissolve. II such be the
case, and no one is killed think we will
have gained complete victory over them
Ifsome are killed, God only knows the end !!
We will of once take to the woods aud the
mountains, and defend ourSelve to the last.
If we had Fifty or one hundred Sharpe's
rifles, it would give us immense power in
the mountain recesSes, where cannon could
not reach us. Il is said the Governor will
be again called upon to really keep the
peace God knows that we don't want
the scenes of Kansas again re-enacted-

From the Albany Journal
The Rhode Island Election.

Sprauge is elected and Padelford defeated,
in Rhode Island, the latter having been
supported by Republicans Democrats, and
Americans
The history of the contest is briefly this:
When the Republican State Convention
was held, the more radical portion Of the
party having o majority, nominated the
ticket headed by Padeford. Some, who
we're dissatisfied with tLis, called another
Convention and put Sprague in nomination
for Governor, aud making one or two other
changes in the candidates for State officers.
The Democrats and Americans, conscious OF
