Il W'etched Humbug. :, The most
abominable humbug in the "show biz
ness" that weeyer came in contact with
is "Burrhus & Co.. 3 Great National Am
.phitheater," which was here in sore
tribulation under the most discouraging
circumstances on Friday and Saturday
of last week. The weather was against
the spreading of their great pavilion,
and, therefore, after much comparing
of pocketbooks and much rubbing to-
4ether of noses, they set up their things
in Oyerman's Hall. Here on Saturday
evening they performed the Fool, each
one taking leading character and prov
Ing star performer. The audience lex
cept the lady portion) sat with hats on,
feet resting on the backs of chairs, some
squirting tobacco juice, others smoking
pipes and cigars from the stub to the
three-footer. While the victim of the
assassin was writhing in the agonies of
death and the great labor of getting
blood enough out of small sponge to
make respectable show by the light of
tallow candle, the unfeeling spectators
haw-hawed and jeered. When the fair
dam-sell met her own Wilkes and eX-
claimed "'Tis he! tits he!" and threw
,her arms about his neck and wept upon
his bosom, there We're those so rude as
to exclaim with much more spirit that
it surely Das he, and others with even
less decorum still who threV their arms
around their masculine neighhor and
cried in Minimizing accents: "My own
dear Wilkes! my own, my own!" One
man in the back of the house got asleep
and fell off the bench. The manager
looked grieved. One man, in the still
ness of an awful tableau, suddenly held
Up his stub pipe, glared at it fiercely and

rhe abou,,onis,.. na the war,

The New York Tribune Of Friday lsst,
in q Gu ious and half-complimentary srti-
Gle, charges that the T~originsl abolitionists"
have contributed very few fighting men to
the war. Admitting that they did 8 good
work in their way, in frightening the anti
slavery spirit and intensifying the fighting
temper of the nation, it declares that their
mental and moral constitution was such
that they 'shrank from the bloody fray"
This charge, it strikes us; l. just the absurd
est of all possible assertions. To arraign
Washington, Putnam, Marion and the
other heroes of cur first revolution because
they did not rise from their graves and
marshal our armies for, victory in our
second struggle for national life, would be
somewhat, but not much, more unressona-
bic than this. The "originsl abolition
ists"-the men who were appointment in
abolition gstherings,"-commenced their
agitation of the slavery question thirty
years ago. At the beginning of the war
they were sll past the prime of life. Many
were gray haired old men. Among them
we're such veterans as Giddings, Garrison,
Greeley, the Tappans, William Jay, 3. =.
,Jocelyn, John Rankin and President Fin
ney, while there were none of them whose
wears did not exceed the number liked by
law as the limit for military service: Their
lives had been devoted to civil pursuits in
which they had won honor and done ser
vice, at personal hazard, to the country
and to the cause of Justice. For these mon
to have left the pulpit and the rostrum to
bear the musket or WELD the sword not
only would have been needlessly to peril
valuable lives, and to divert into useless
channels energies which were doing their
proper work already, but would have
caused positive harm by placing
in direction of military operations men
whom the habitudes and cultures of long
and peaceful lives had untitled to win re-
nown by marches and battles. "oid men
for council, young men for fight" is .
maxim tested and approved by the expert
ence Of two thousand years
Bot il these venerable pioneers in great
and gloriously successful reform have no,
participated in the bloody contest which
has contaminated it, the younger class OF
Abohtioaists, less distinguished but no les'
ardent, who have been moulded q In
fuenced by these leaders, have sent 8 larger

The Kenfnckr ELECTION.


Returns from the "bsck counties" OF
Kentucky develop an unexpected gain for
the Union party, and the probabilities are
now strong that the Union candidate fol
state Treasurer viii carry the State BY
about two thousand msjority. This-ss
most unexpected and gratifying victory,
and demonstrates that the popular heart
of the State beats in unison with freedom
and progress. The triumph of the Union
ticket is q triumph of emancipation.
Whether the results of this popular
triumph can be made Immediately available
in the ratification Of the Constitutions
Amendment abOlishing slavery is doubtful,
but it is q substantial triumph after all,
ar its effects will be none the less felt in
tb 9 end because they are not felt imme-
d lately.
The two branches of the State Legisla-
'ture 10 whom the question of ratification is
committed, will probably be of opposing
compilations. The House Of Represents
tlyes will have a small Pro.amendment
ms Jrity, while in the Senate seventeen Pro
amendment and twenty-one Anti-amend-
melt members are elected. OF course it
will be in the power of the Anti-amend-
ment Ssnstors TO defeat the ratification OF
TIE Amendment, and the honor of com.
Pleting the legal abolition of slavery will
probably be left for States further
South than Kentucky.

Tho Presidents Reoonstrue.ton Policy

Tho Presidents Reconstruction Policy
1T is only an Experiment.
In recent speech at ChilIicothe General
Schenck, referring to the reconstruction
policy adopted by President johnson, gave
the following very interesting and impor-
tant account of the Presidents own views
and intentions, as developed by him in 8
recent conversation with Sehenck him
self:
In that interview l expressed to him the
doubt and Jealousy that existed in the
minds of the people of the country, and
especially In the minds of the people of
Ohio-doubts whether, under the policy he
had adopted, We were not going too fast in
bringing back by hurried processes these
rebel States into full communion with the &c
that had never left the Union fold. I tod
him that that doubt might, perhaps, rest
on 3 misunderstanding as to the extent to
which he proposed to carry that policy. l
said, and l think you will Justify me in
having said so, that if his purpose was "a
establish temporary Governments, experi
mental in their nature, by tn appointment
OF these provisional officers, in order to test
their disposition to go ahead, and come
back in good faith, and with the full pur
p1se of abiding by their Obligations t.
the National Government; and if he pro
posed to keep enough of the military powe
stationed in the late rebellious States t.
supervise their conduct, and reach forward
the strong hand to keep them in the RICH
way, we would be satisfied with such ex
~periments- And, moreover, 1 said W
would be better satisfied still if we shoul
definitely understand that it was no pul
peso of the Executive to f~orestsllt the actio
Of Congress, but that when they should a.
semble they should determine whether, /
addition to having their local Executlv
privileges in the States, these people wei
ready to return to full communion with Il
Government, by being represented in Il
eounsels Of the nation.
L Am glad to be able to say that the a
surance 1 had from the President justii
me in saying that, although this was Il
policy he meant TO pursue, it was only 8
3 experiment. He said that he had no pu
pose of interfering with the action of Co
gress the experiments being inside we.
l but 8 preparation of these people for a be
t ter and more improved condition. And
6 far rs keeping watch over them by srm'
force is concerned, he pointed to what b.

oraPes ON the Lake.


A correspondent of the New York Tri-
buns thus writes of the prospects along the
lake shore:
l visited many vineyards on the Ohio
lake shore. 1 did not see q single diseased
Cstawba. Many Issbellas were badly mil
dewed. Six miles from Cleveland, DR..
Mathivet has ten acres on the sand. He
has the finest show of Delawsres l know
of. Many were grated on other stocks.
This is an easy process, as l know by ex-
perience. These grapes srein large punches,
and free from disease. The Doctor makes
his whole stock into wine, and he has q very
large stock, mostly Catswbas.
Dr.. Durham, nine miles east Of Cleve-
land, has a small vineyard on the clay ridge.
He works his own ground. 1t is rich with
manure. l think he has the finest grapes
on the shore. Perhaps there Is no vine
yard in the world Ct the same extent 80
profitable. Last year, from an acre and q
hall, he sold seven and 3 half tuns of Ca
taWba grapes st fifteen cents a p.uBd, or
tho thousand tt0o hundred and THIRTY sir
dollars This he told me- himself, and he
is a trustworthy man.
The assessor told me he handed in this
sum to hiW, among other items, for taxa
tion. The Doctor said that if the season is
favorable he is likely this year to have ten
tuns of grapes. He keeps the ground clean,
cuts off ~lstersls, and the vine at the top
of the stakes, of which there are two Tor
each vine, but does not strike of a single
leaf. He does this in June and August.
The grape region here is of two kinds.
A ridge o parallel with the lake and
o two miles from IL. It's ~e=averlv
clay. Formerly it was said TO be Jrnouse
but TO hold the world together. From the
foot of the ridge to the lake it is mort sand
and was supposed to be best for grapes
But experience has shown that fros!s come
at least ten days sooner here than on the
ridge, and the grapes do not ripeD well
They value this ridge land at from $50 e
500 an acre. Elsewhere one has to pay
this amount at least for t,erehing ground
Here they only pillow. If the soil is spoDgJ
and wet, they put in tile drains.

The SpirituaIIsts or the Franchise
Question.
The following resolutions, unanimously
adopted by the Yearly Meeting of Spirit
ualists and Friends of Progress, held st
Auburn Corners, Geaugs county, Ohio,
Saturday and Sunday, August l2th and
18th, 1856, are furnished to US for publics-
ton:
WHEREAS, To man or nation, there is
no safety save in obedience to the Divine
Law of Justice, therefore
Resolved, That it is of highest moment
that we should sAin security for the fu-
ture 80 some compensation for the toils
7snd sufferings of our heroic soldiers and
the trials and heart pains Of the friends
and relatives of those who have given
their lives for freedom; and that such
security can only be gained by granting
equal rights before the law to all of what
ever race or complexion; that il is f4grsnt
injustice, and pitIful to deny the
eOlored soldier, who has fought and bled
for his country the right 10 cast his ballot.
2. That it is blind folly, the outgrowth
of q base prejudice, born of slavery, to
I0lsce political power in the hands of ma
ignsnt and u~nrepsntsnt rebels by denying
loyal men, black or white, the privilege Of
voting-a folly which will bring new
trouble and disaster to the sacred cause of
Liberty and Union.
Resolved That, IS "Friends of Human
Progress" we meet for the discovery and
application of truth to the end of q higher
standard of thought and lite, a wiser con-
duct of all private and public affairs, a
growth in true manhood and V~omsnhOod,
a hearty interest in al good reforms, a
quickening of intuition and spiritual life
from within, and q clearer recognition of
those eternal laws, in the soul and in the
nature of things, which link us 10 the In
finite and the Divine. ~
