To the Hon. Roger A. Pryor.


The Wheeling Union, of yesterday, re-
published from the columns of the Louis
willie Courier, number of questions, pre-
tendedly addressed to the Hon. John Bell.
The tone of the article indicates that it
was the design of both the writer and the
republisher to show that Mr.. Bell would
not dare to answer the questions, especially
afirmotively, and that he was not, there
fore, a fit man to be voted for in the South.
Some of those questions are as follows:
Are Won in favor of the extension of
slavery into any of the common territories
now belonging to the United States
Would YOU vote for the protection of
Slavery in any of the territories?
Are you in favor of the acquisition of
territory adapted to slave labor?
Are you in favor of re-opening the Afri-
can slave trade?
In the event of Lincoln's election are
you in favor of submission to his inaugura-
ton?
The foregoing questions are Addressed
in manner and form, as we have published
them, to Mr.. Bell, and if it is duly in or
der, and perfectly agreeable all around we
desire 10 transfer the address of them from
the Hon. Mr. Bell to the Hon. Mr.. Pryor.
Will yon then, Mr.. Pryor, answer each
and all of the above questions in your
speech tonight at the Atheneum?

THE n. Y. correspondent of the N. %.
Crescent relates mysterious event which
happened at Wallack's theatre during Mr..
Florence's recent engagementthere. Flor
cnce was playing Capt. Cutie, hin Burton's
old clothes. Mr.. Fenuo, who is a great
spiritualist, was sitting with an actor
named Lowton, in the green room, when
the latter, who proves to he surprising
medium, felt the table on which he was
leaning suddenly move, intmating that a
spirit desired to communicate with him
He told Fenno what had happened. and
both set to work at once to evolve the SUI
pernatural secret. Upon demanding the
spirits name, they were, on spelling it
out, not little startled to find it William
E. Burton. But still more were they as
tonished on reading its communication, to
this cffect-'Tell that ID scoundrel to
take off those old clothes" Fenno, like
faithful Iomcrian messenger, obcyed the
Nel'oOt of the dead, and so excited Flor
ence that he could hardly get through with
the performance.

'.In reply to the question, what would
he do if Lincoln was elected? Gen.
Walker said, drawing himself up to his
full height, and in the sublimest strain of
eloquence that come veal or come woe,
so help him God, he would not submit,
and that he would take the banner of the
constitution, and plant it where the honor
or safety of the south demanded, and that
he would defend it with his life and for

So there is one danger over, thanks to
southern general. The Saracens and Moors
will please make note of this, and save
themselves the trouble of voyage.

who would be injured, Lincoln, or our

A pretty little girl in Berlin, discovring
that her brother was challenged to fight
duel, determined out of love for him to
assume his attire, meet his antagonist, and
take the chances. She trusted the truth
would not be discovered, and actually APP
peared on the field at the appointed hour.
The place of meeting was that where Herr
Won Hinkeldy was killed some two or
three years ago. The opponent was, how
ever, not deceived by this false appropria-
ton of the pantoloons, though willing, out
of gallantry, to humor the fair one, and
frighteu her for her frolic, SO he took his
place, aud, as he obtained the right of first
fire, levelled his pistol at his fair antago-
mist FOR n time. She did not, however,
the air. The turn of the young lady
came, and she was in uowise nervous in
using her rights, and shot the young man
in the shoulder. The wound was slight

Scratches In Horses.

The approach of cold, wet weather, sug-
gests the application of few hints on this
aliment, which at this season sometimes ap-
pears on the horse, just above the hoofs and
below the fetlocks. 1t is caused, generally,
by want Of proper care for the warmth and
dryness Of the feet, allowing horses to stand
in their stalls after driving in cold, muddy
weather, with wet legs, and doing nothing to
clean them and prevent chill At such
times the legs and feet should be well rubbed
with dry hay, so as to get them warm, and
as nearly dry as may be. 1t this disease has
already appeared, wash the part affected with
warm soap suds, and then with beef brine
This will affect cure. Keeping them clean
and dry, by rubbing only, will general pro-
duce the same result

How to Judge Cattle.

In all domestic animals the skin, or hide,
forms one of the best means by which to es-
innate their fatting properties. In the hand
ling Of oxen, if the hide be found soft and
silkey to the touch, it affords proof of ten
dency to take meat. A breast having per-
feet tossch viii have thick loose skin floating,
Us it were, on layer Of soft fat, yielding to
the slightest pressure, and springing back
towards the finger like piece of soft leather.
Such skin will be usually covered with an
abundance Of soft, glossy hair, feeling like a
bed Of moss; and hence is ever termed a
messy skin. But thick set, hard, short
hair, always handles hard, and indicates a
hard feeder.

The Roadster.

The word roadster is not we'll understood
by all whe exhibit horses at our fairs, and
frequently horses belonging to other classes
are shown in this. A horse of all work may
be fair roadster, but roadsters are really
horses fit for travelling. The Morgan horse
is good illustration of this class. Like all
other classes, they need good vital organs to
give them bottom, and first rate motive
temperament. He need not be so large as
the horse of all work, nor SO strong; but on
the road, he should be much his superior,
travelling daily with light loads fifty miles,
not for single day, but for weeks.-Ohio

Delaware, Rebecca and Concord Grapes
In Iowa.

James Smith, of Des Moines, SAYS
"The Delaware grape is doing finely with
me this year, Notwithstanding put them as
deep into the ground as I could, to let bit
remain out. Rebecca, too, has stood our cx-
IRENE drought and excessive hot weather,
without scorching leaf, and, in fact, con-
slider it one of the healthiest Though slender)
of twenty sorts have in cultivation. But
the Concord is the grape for this country
My original vines that were direct from Mr.
Bull, five years in my garden, stood out on
trellis last winter, without particle of pro-
lection from any quarter, and came out this
spring sound, and have now heavy crop of
fruit"
The Germantown Telegraph commenting
on the foregoing, says:
"Amid all the strife about grapes-especi-
ally the new sorts being constantly brought
to notice-the Concord is rapidly gaining
favor, and must become popular for general
cultivation. We this year fruited the Della
ware finely, and we have tested it with the
Concord over and over, as have other persons,
and we have no hesitation to say, that while
the Delaware is fruit of higher qualities,
pomologically speaking the Concord is to be
preferred. Its size, rapid growth, and early
bearing, more than make up, in our judgment,
the difference in quality. Indccl, there are
persons having no fear of accommodation
before their eyes, who think the Concord is
ahead in all respects" gzs.r... ...

Immense Potato Crop In Iowa.

The potato crop of Iowa for the year 1860
is truly astonishing. The yield in some in
stances up to 400 to 500 bushels to the acre,
and the general average is not much less than
200 The quality of the potatoes is better
than usual. 1t is not uncommon to find them
weighing pound each, and some weigh even
five pounds. Not sign of rot or imperfec-
ton has been discovered. So plenty and
cheap are they that for the past week many
loads have sold at ten cents per bushel. No
danger Of starving in Iowa at these figures.

Hog Cholera.

This disease seems again to be doing much
damage. Mondays Louisville Journal says:
We stated on Saturday that hog cholera
prevailed among the swine, not only in Indi-
ana, but to considerable extent in this city.
The Lafayette (Ind.) Journal of Friday saws
that the disease has made its appearance
among the hogs that are being fed at Hollard' 8
distillery, in the southern portion of that city.
During Wednesday and Thursday forty-five
died, involving loss Of 6, 500 pounds. They
were sold to soap factors at one and a half
cents per pound. The hogs were the proper
ty of Messrs. Telford & Co.
