EKKOKS.—One of our compositors in setting up the list of premiums, inadvertently caused the name of Caleb Mills to read "Caleb Miller and in class six, "John Dunham," in place of John Durham and in class eighteen, "John Chadurch in placc of Jehu Chadvick. We deem it necessary to make this correction, so the gentlemen may know where they stand.

TIIK HAILHOAU.—Col. Maxwell, President of (lie Crawfordsviile, Frankfort, Ko5 konio it Fort Wayne Railroad, has just relumed from New York city, to which place he went a few days since on business, in connection with the road. We understand •i that propositions have been made to the companv which are to be laid before the

Board of Directors so soon as they can be called together, and that there is now but little if any doubt of the speedy completion of the entire road from Crawfordsvile to Fort Wayne.

James M. June it Co.'s old circus

is now travelling through this State under •s) a new name, the "Hippodrome." This iruml concern we believe will be exhibited

in this place on or before the 20th inst. Of course every body is expected to stay at home on that day Wiio wants to come to town to see line's old circus?

JO?' Three new Locomotives for the N. A. it S. Railroad, arrived at New Albany on Tuesday last. They are named the Iiainbridge, Frances, and Ladoga. They are said to be very large and powerful engines.

The Sentinel says the corn was con

siderably injured in that county by the late frosts. We have heard of no damage being done in this section of the country by the frost, notwithstanding we had three pretty heavy frosts.

iCi?" Freeman, the alleged fugitive slave was on Saturday last released from prison, by order of Commissioner Sullivan. His claimant, Mr. Ellington, of Missouri, after an investigation of the matter, was thoroughly convinced that he had claimed the "wrong colored man," and withdrew the claim.

jCi?~ The Lafayette Courier says the entries at the State Fair at Lafayette, which comes oil" on the 12th, 13th and 14th of October next, must, bc made on Monday and Tuesday, the 10th and 11th, and Avill not be admitted thereafter-, except at the discretion of the Executive Committee.— The address, by Hon. Horace Greeley, will be delivered on Thursday, the 13th.

'•'4 JCJ/" It is whispered around by the old Ladies, and all others who are in the habit of using the article, that M. Snook, it Co.. keeps a little the best quality of tea now used in this section of the country!

The Memphis papers state that tiie

Cotton crop in that vicinity, and- in some parts of Mississippi, is suffering materially from rust.

Cleveland, Ohio, was visited by

frost on the night of the 20th.

X'fr So far there have been 142 Democrats, G6»Whfgs, and 3 Abolitionists elected to the next Congress. Maryland, Georgia, Mississippi, and Louisana, entitled to 23 members, have yet to hold elections.

THE COMET.

This stranger, which has "been on a visit to our globe for several evenings past, is supposed to be the same comet which nearly frightened the world into piclv, two centuries ago, and which was predicted to appear in 1849, but, as it did not come, the calculations were revised and the most celebrated astronomers in Europe have stated that it would appear between this year and 135G. Its size now is that of a star of the second magnitude, and if it be the one that it is supposed to be, and now on its return, after an absence of over two hundred years, it will terrify the whole world, being in magnitude, when nearest the earth, apparently, of the size of the moon, and visible in broad

day. It is now thirty millions of miles from the sun, and two or three times more remote from tl'.e earth. It is. however, rapidly approaching us, and. if it does not stop or turn aside, the world and its inhabitants may yet meet the fate threatened them by the philosopher of old, of whom honorable mention is made in Diedric-h Knickerbocker's veritable "History of New ork from the beginning of the world to the end of the

Dutch Dynasty."

STATE ROOM CAII.—Messrs. EATON FC GiuiKKT, of Troy, N. says the Kochester Democrat, have just got up for the Hudson River Railroad, a car about forty-five feet long, and nine and a half wide, the whole cut up into staterooms of eight feet square. Each room is calculated for one family or party, and is furnished with one sofa, four chairs, a looking glass, and a small mahogany centre table. The panels are painted in landscape, and the ceiling hung with silk. The rooms are entered from a passage way on the side, and are admirably lighted and ventilated. In the forward part of the car is a wash room, in the rear a snug little nook for the use and occupancy of a chambermaid. This car is intended for an experiment. Should it meet with the patronage worthy of its comforts, Mr. French intends to have.twenty more immediately constructed.

NEW PARTY.—The New York Day Book publishes the creed of a New Party, which it thinks is destined to make a sensation in the country. It is to bc called the American l'artv,—goes for universal education by means of free schools independent of any religious sect—for reforming naturalization laws so as to extend the term of residence, but not to interfere with those who are already voters—goes for free trade in all articles not the products of this country, but a judicious tariff upon all others—goes for a Pacific Railroad—harbor and river improvements—selling public lands to actual settlers—opposed to any legislation which shall exclude the IJible from the public schools, or vest church property exclusively in the hands of the Clergy, 'ihc Day Book says "this is bound to bc a great party

The yellow fever, black vomit, chol

era, and small pox, are making frightful havoc in Cuba. The recently introduced Africans brought with them a terrible kind of diarrhoea, which is carrying off vast numbers of victims. In Havana, the troops are suffering to an appalling extent. In some regiments, of a thousand men, there are scarcely found a hundred available.— The yellow fever has this year, taken a most malignant and Altai form.

The following is an extract from a

letter received from a private correspondent at New Orleans, dated the 14th August: People begin to die here in a way that does not resemble the yellow fever. Within a few days many have died in less than 24 hours after being taken, and almost immediately after the breath has left the body it has turned spotted, being covered all over with black spots, so that it is supposed that there is some other pestilence among us beside yellow fever. Some think it is the plague—same as was so fatal in Rio Janeiro last year. It is enough, however, for us however to know that from 240 to 250 daily die by the epidemic. Our cemetry reports of interments by no means include all many are hurried out of the city and die and are hurried in the country. I have never before seen so much alarm and confusion about sickness in this city all flee who can get away. It rains every day and a hot sun is stewing us up when not raining.

On Triton walk yesterday we noticed a bov, about 11 years of age, carrying on his head a coffin, which on inquiry we learned contained the body of his little sister, who had died of yellow"fever. He was accompanied by his eldest sister, a girl of some 13 years of

a_re.

TITIIINGS.

Of all the fruit of your fields, and

who administers in holy tilings, and the servants of the king, who rule in righteousness, may eat bread, and the land yield her increase—59 words, 241 letters. 2. If ve do not these things, the priest shall fail to instruct you and your children the order of God's house shall be forgotten and the servants of the king shall forget the law and judge for hire, and righteousness shall cease. Then shall wickedness be in the midst of you, and oppression come upon you—5G words, 242 letters. 3. Moreover, the king shall send his servants to demand of you, and they shall •xact that which ye have withheld, and shall wrest it from you with increase andjf ye resist then ye shall be spoiled—37 words, 155 letters. 4. Of all the spoil which you take from your enemies, a tenth shall ye render to the house of the Lord your God, and^ the treasury of the king that he who administers in holy things may remember you before God, and the king's arm may deliver you—48 words, 190 letters. 5. If ye do not this, ye shall not go out with a blessing and ye shall flee before your enemies, and none shall deliver you 25 words, 94 letters.

G. Moreover, the king shall lift his hand ao-inst you, and shall buflet you, and from you shall he take the spoil, and ifjc icmove it from him he shall spoil you—32 words, 124 letters. 7. When labor notice these things, yet one-tenth of your time shall you consecrate to the Lord* your God, and for the treasury of the king, according to joui skill, and your cunning, and your art and you shall not withhold, that a place foi God to dwell among you may not be wanting, and the work of the king may not fail, and that you may possess abundantly fields, flocks, and habitations—85 words, 348 letters. 8. If ye do not these things ye shall not prosper in the work of your hands, and poverty shall be in your dwellings 28 words, 89 letters. 9. Morever, the king shall take your goods and your substance from you, to recompense what you have defrauded the house of the Lord and the treasury of the king, with increase. And if ye obstinately defraud in these things, ye shall be beaten with stripes—45 words, 204 letters. 10. And whosoever cometh into the kingdom, a tenth of all lie possesses shall he give for the establishment of the kingdom, and for its increase, that he may have an everlasting inheritance therein—33 words, 157 letters. 1 1. And until he do this, no inheritance shall be given unto him, and he shall not wax rich in goods—20 words, 75 letters. 12. Moreover, the king shall send his servants to take a tenth from him, with increase, and then the king remembering his children, shall grant an inheritance unto him but his obstinacy shall surely be remembered—35 words, 170 letters.

NOTE—It is the king's commandment that when increase is taken it shall be one-tenth the tithing, and the charges of the officelfor collecting the same.

Total—12 sec., 498 words, 2,089 letters. It would indeed be difficult for any one to plan a more cunning compound of ecclesiastical and civil law, or a better trap to catch the simple novice who is so daring as to take up his residence within the jurisdiction of Mormondom, whether he be Mormon or Gentile. But the text itself is sufficient without comments.

THE WHOLE STORY IN A. NUT SHELL. The Albany Knickerbocker, under the head of "Independence and Progress," tells the whole story of our nation's birth and greatness, and progress in the arts and sciences, in a remarkable short paragraph for a theme so comprehensive. The style is rather racy, but decidedly to the point: "It is seventy-seven years ago to-day since Uncle Sam was born, and what an eventful seventy-seven years they have been. Seventy-seven years ago the United States was a remote circumstance they now compose the second commercial nation in the world. In three quarters of a century they have revolutionized the world, built up an empire, licked our mother, and fenced in a continent. In less time than it took Methuselah to get out of swaddling clothes we have made more canals, tamed more lightning, and harnessed more steam, and at a greater cost in money than the whole revenues of the world could have paid for the day he got out of his time.— In seventy-five years we have not only changed the politics of the earth, but its wearing apparel—cotton shirts being as much the offspring of the United States as ballot-boxes and democracy. Since the fourth of July, 177G, the whole world has been to school, and, what is better, has learned more common sense than was

THE LATE ELECTIONS. The Boston J'ost justly remarks, that "the results of these contests clearly prove the gratifying fact that the democracy of the South"—indeed, we may almost say the people of the South—entertain that unabated confidence in the high nationality of the President, his devotion to the constitution and to the whole Union, which his acts and purposes so eminently entitle him to. What a rebuke are the returns from Alabama, Tennessee, and Kentucky, of a querulous spirit elsewhere, which would seek revenge for personal disappointment by endeavorin to create, in the slaveholding States especially, a mistrust of the .President's fidelity to" those comprehensive views which have guided and distinguished his whole political life—a mistrust of his impartial regard for, and watchfulness over, the particular constitutional rights of the individual States! Hypocritical cant about pretended abandonment of pledges—assumption of superior attachment to the South— false allegations about a change of policy, and all the miserable charges treachery can invent to gratify its malignity, or to palliate its falsehood, cannot impose upon the intelligence of the people. If intolerent politicians are disappointed—if grasping selfishness is checked—if personal malignity writhes for vengeance unappeascd— what matter? All cannot induce the country to withdraw its faith from one who ha.devoted his best days in the council and in the field in subserving her interests, in maintaining her honor. The people will detect falsehood, whether it creeps sneakingly thro' the columns of such "neutral" accommodating" whiir papers as the and "accommodating" whig papers as

sinister partisans. The administration
