m-The Albany EVENING JOURNAL,
in noticing the action Of the Southern
secedcrs, very truly remarks:
"Seceders repudiated Mr.. Vau Bu-
ren for a single act of disobedience to
the Slave Power. The Disunionists
repudiated Douglas for demanding
that the Constitution Of Kansas
should be submitted to the people.
The madness of 1S4S elected Gen.
Taylor-that of 1860 will elect Lin
coin. And, with the Census of 1860,
the power of slavery to make or mar
the fortunes Of Statesmen, departs for
ever"

/ sgThe West Chester (Pa.) DEXo-
Graf, speaking of the proposed oppo-
sition TO Lincoln's Inauguration as .
singular fact, makes some remarkable
statements. He says:

ton. 1t is said the Yanceyites are

we have one of these secret conclaves
in our beautiful town? The old
Know Nothing lodge can be had, and
the half dozen men who sympathize
with 1ancey ought to rent it forth
with.
On the other side of this question,
| hear Of Southern man being asked
if he thought his people could DC
COAXED to stay in the Union in the
event Of Lincoln being elected?
Well, he said, Lincoln was no: Sew

Strong Endorsement.

( IThe Hon. Richard Yates, Republi-
can candidate for Governor in Hi
nois, addressed a mass meeting at
Sprinfeld recently. Weextract from
il the following passage relative to
Mr.. Lincoln:J
"Now. fellow-citizens, it may strike
you as rather a strange matter that
the people Of so great a nation as this
should come TO Illinois for its Prcsi-
dent-that the mighty Republican
party should look to this fa--away
Prairie State for its standard-bearer
in such a momentous contest. Yet l
say here, that | have heard the great
men Of this nation, North and South,
East and West, for four consecutive
years in the Hall Of the House of
Representatives, and in the Senate Of
the United States; l have heard
Stephens and Toombs of the South,
Seward, Chase, and Corwin of the
North | have heard the most re-
nowncd orators on the floor Of the
Senate and House daily for years !;
and | say to-day, that, for clearness of
statement, for penetration Of thought.
for power or irresistible logic, for
broad, comprehensive, statesmanlike
views, for exalted purity of private
and public character, your own Abra-
ham Lincoln is the clearest, noblest,
purest, and best Of them all. In the
history of his life-in all the elements
which inspire with enthusiasm the
hearts OF the masses of mankind, and
rouse the millions to action, l stand
up here to-day in this Capitol of the
State, and in the presence Of my
couutrymen, TO say that the name Of
Lincoln is this day and hour tho
name upon the Continent Of
North America. prolonged cheers.1
Fellow-citizens. the ename of Abraham
Lincoln, which We present TO you, is .
winning name-a name to rally on
wherever freedom requires a champi-
on-a name to boast Of wherever you
would point 10 an honest man or q
patricia name TO love wherever af-
fiction would seek q warm-hearted
and generous spirit-a name which is
a spell TO gather millions wherever
free hearts and strong hands are to be
in favor of liberty and hu-
nanity." Tremendous applause.]

How TO WATER PLANTs.-As a rule water
should never be given until the further with
holding Of it would be detrimental to the
plants. Habitual watering does, in the ma
ority of cases, more harm than good. Plants
left to battle with drouth send their roots
deep down in search of moisture and when
rain does come they benefit more by it than
those that have had regular waterings all
along. If the ground is dug deeply and kept
in good heart, plants that have once got es7
tablished will bear drouth for any length Of
time, but things lately planted and that have
not had time to "get hold" must be kept
supplied, or their beauty may vanish for
half the season. Succulent vegetables, too,
which ought to be kept growing quick,
must have abundance and, Of course, plants
in pots must Of necessity, have sufficient.
There are two important points to be at
tended to in giving water one is to expose
the water to the sun before using it, to rem
der it soft and warm, and the other is to
give thorough soaking at once, sufficient
to keep the ground moist n week. Suppos-
ing the supply to be limited, but regular,
the best way Of economizing both water and
time is to take the garden piece by piece,
watering each piece thoroughly every even.
