WORTHY OF THoUGHT.-Our cotemporary

some very pertinent and judicious remarks
about the interests Of local journals, and the
duty andpollcy of sustaining them, that arc
worthy of wider circulation and more gen
efal attention
1--WE are driven to the field thus carly
by the unreasonable appearance Of the
agents and runners OF foreign papers,
who are posting through the country
and Offering their publications at rates
rulnous to the prosperity of our kome
papers. Without saying ought against
the claims of any foreign weekly on the
score of general merit, we may be per,
mitted to say, in truth, that to you they
are OF secondary importance in compari-
son with your home paper. What does
New York, Cincinnati, or Cleveland
care for yon or your interests I? What
do they know or care about those things
which most interest you and Of which
you read and converse most in your
shops and by your fireside. We are
pleased to know that you are generally
able TO take more than one paper, aud
that your intelligence and liberality in.
duces you to do so, Yet, at the same
time, many do. not care to take but one,
motives OF economy, and such, in making
choice Of papers, are too apt to take
the lowest priced one, let it be published
at home or elsewhere. What. after all,
IS saving OF fifty or seyenty-fve cents
in a years reading if you fail to read
what most concerns tho society in which
you live, and what most interests you.
If you can't take but one paper, by all
means you should take that one which
brings you the news OF your own town
and county, and from its location should
have some interest in you and your neigh
borhood."

The SoHR. ANNA HENRY, Captain A. f.
on the night of the 9th inst, as we learn from
the Times of Geneva, where the Captain re-
sides. The Scllr. was loaded with pig iron,
bound for Hamilton. About midnight, with
Q stiff wind and heavy sea, Capt S. noticed
that the vessel was hove down considerably,
and efforts were made to right her but did not
succeed. The pumps were manned, but the
water gained rapidly. The yawl was launch
ed, and taking line ran off from the sinking
craft, Capt S, still remaining on board search
ing for the leak. Giving up the safety of the
vessel, he hawled in the Yawl and left the YES
sci, and had hardly got to safe distance when
she went down. The confinement of the air
in the vessel by the rushing waters into the
hold, while sinking, was such as to lift the
deck and cabin aft, and it escaped with a
noise which was heard above the winds and
waves. The Schooner George Steele, of Chi
cago, Captain Long, had been signalcd, and
came TO the scene of the disaster and rescued
the crew, consisting of eight men, They
were alterward transferred to the Northern
Transportation Cos. propeller, the Empire,
and taken to Chicago. Capt Smith, of the
Empire, was mean enough to charge the ship
wrecked crew for their passage 10 Chicago.
Capt Shepard owned controlling interest in
the vessel lost, and had an insurance of So, 900.
Even with this he lo0ses heavily, No insurance

fourteen years, and this is his first disaster

Why HoAR WAS REJECTED.-The tyranny
Of Congress has already alarmed some of the
Radical leaders. 1t has been exemp,ifej in
the rejection by the Senate of Attorney Ger
eral Hoar of the Supreme Bench. The Wash
gives out the following ...t
"Tbe true reason of his rejection will not
be sent over the country by telegraphic dis
patches. 1t will be claimed that he was re-
iected for the reason that he belonged at the
North, and in Massachusetts. But that State
has DO Justice upon the bench, and the Sen
ate cares nothing for this reason. With the
South full of Northern men in every execu-
tive office. and sustained there by the Senate.
very few people can be made to believe that
Mr.. Hoar was rejected on account of his To-
calitv. The true reason is this; he has ex-
pressed opinions of the uuconstitutiopality of
some of the acts of Congress. and he does not
like the Radical plan of subiugating the Ju-
dietary. This killed him off. The Govern
ment is to considerable extent, already re-
volutionized. A few steps more and the
likeness to the old Republic will not be re-
cognized. The States and the people have
little power, and Capitalization will he su-
preme. Already you will notice that Farms
worth. Dawes and Bingham are charmed. and
have entered protests as boldly as they dare.
But they dare not say much, for tyranny ia
so great here that Republicans who are really
alarmed dare not speak boldly and freely.
But a good many are shaking with fear.
There has not been a good feeling between
the President and Congress for some time,
and Grant is now very much iDcensed."
The union Democrat., 1870-02-19

Nkw ENGLAND AID THE WEsr.-Under
this head the New York Commercial .idrer-
tiser. (Republican). referring to the action of
Congress on the Virginia question, says "the
course of our politics shows that the bigoted
rule of men of narrow ideas is coming to an
end, end that so far as the Republican party
shows new Gberality, and breaks away from
the strong gives set upon its limbs by few
fanatical Radicals, it derives this new spirit
from the influence of men who have scorned
the restrictions and intolerance that charac-
terize some of our Eastern public men. The
case of Virginia is in point. Here Oh the one
hand are combined unforgiviag, prosecuting
politicians, and on the other is a spirit pre-
cisely the opposite" In view of which the
Adrertiser SAYS it is strengthened in the be-
lief that there is growing up an antsgonlsm
between the ideas of New England and OF the
West. which can only be reconcied by the
lowering of the pretensions preferred by the
former. Sumner. Butler and Wilson, it pro-
ceeds to saw, Twill not rule the party. They
may heed the lash of Wendell Phillips. but
that angry sound will be disregarded in
Ohio. Illinois, and beyond the Mississippi.
Tie banner under which prejudice, bigo,ry.
sectionalism. and suspicion have harbored
mnst 60 down, and instead there must be a
policy Of lberality, and generosity, and conf
dence. If the New England leaders do not
comprehend this, they will go to tie rear.
The South is coming back to the Union, and
it comes with dislike to New England as
inveterate as it was before the war. for in the
process Of reconstruction it has found only
hesitation and doubt and obstacles. and a de-
sire for vengeance from the people it never
had much occasion to like. The South sees
an ally in the West. 1t finds there broader
tolerance and more hopeful faith. and it
can the more readily attach itself 10 the States
which evinee magnanimity in the hour of de-
feat and suffering. Over and over again we
have read in Southern papers appeals for this
alliance, and there are now fresh signs that
it may be made soon and firm

TIE DAVENPORT EXHIBITION
ally the same performances were gone through
with last night at Platt's Hall as on the pre-
vious night by the Davenport Brothers.
The committee from the audience to examine
and report on the proceedings were Supervis-
or Ashbury and Judge Cope. with the aid of
Captain Roberts and one or two others used
to tying sailor knots. The most wonderful
part of the affair was in the dark seance,
when the coat of one Of the pavenports was
suddenly saatched off his back and thrown
into the air, alighting among the spectators,
while his hands were firmly tied behind him
with cords and seal put on tie knot; and
again. when Mr.. Ashbury and Judge Cope
were seated around the table. with their hands
holding fast to those of Davenport and their feet
on his, the guitar was distinctly pleyed while
rising in the air and ascending nearly to the
ceiling, giving rap on the head OF Mr.. Ash
bury in passing, who ordered the same to go
up higher and higher Altogether, the wnoie
performance was very remarkable. and wholly
inezplicable Oh any method or principle sp-
parent to the spectators. Bulletin.
