For President in 1856,

JESSE D. BRIGHT,

Subject to the decision of the Democratic National Convention.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

It as been thought advisable to postpone our County Convention from the 22(1 of (he present month to the 29th, in consequence of several of the townships holding their clcclions on that day. Let every old liner then bear mind that the £9lh is the day set for the convention.

GEN. ALLEN MAY.

Wc take pleasure in proposing to the

Democratic State Convention to be holden on the Cth of next month this gentleman ns a suitable candidate for State Delegate to the National Convention. The General is one of those sterling Democrats thnt his party should Geek to honor. In the late campaign none did better scrvice.

During the whole of last summer and fall lie was actively engaged in combatting the odious principles of Abolition KnowNothingism, and to his efforts, we are indebted in a no small degree for the brilliant rictory gained over the enemy.

A RELIC OP BARBARISM. We have in our possession a pair of brass

knucks, an implement used by members of tJie once existing Know-Nothing Order, to knock down innocent and unoffending citizens, who had the temerity to exercise the rights of American citizens. They arc said to have been invented by an ardent and somewhat over zealous disciplc of Protestantism of the John Calvin school, who claimed that they possessed advantages equal to the Scriptures in spreading tho true religion and staying the progress of Catholicism. If any of our old lino readers would like to have a peep at these inquisitorial instruments of Protestant Jesuitism we will take pleasure in showing them. They were picked up by a friend in the vicinity of the late Louisville butch cry, and arc still stained with the blood of some martyr who no doubt perished in that fearful storm of bigotry and fanaticism.— France has her historic page darkened with the scenes of St. Bartholomew and America with the carnage of Louisville.

At close of Summer day, And half awake and half a-dream, Sho watched the ripples play She marked the waters fall and heavo,

The deepning shadows throng, And heard, as darkened down the eve, Tho river's babbling song, And thus it sung with thinking tongue,

That rippling shadowy river— Youths brightest day will fade away For over and for ever !r!

The twilight past, tho moon at last, Rose brightly o'er tho night, Each ripple gleams beneath her beams,

As wrought ifi silver light, The heaving waters glido aiong, But mingling with their voicc, The nightingale now pours his song,

And makes the shade rejoice, And thus he sung with tuneful tongue, That bird beside the river— '•When youth is gone, true love shine on,

For ever and for ever."

J&sT Arrison, the torpedo man, who was

arraigned at Cincinnati on Saturday, before Judge Parker, withdrew his plea of

"not guilty," and put in a special plea of autrefois convict, or once in jeopardy.

THE KANSAS FLURRY.—The St. Louis Intelligencer of the 5th instant, commences along editorial on this subject in the fol

lowing strain:—"We give it as our unquali

fied opinion that there will bu no war in

Kansas. The public mind in Missour is unmoved, and the late eruption of exciting

rumors sent trembling along the telegraph

wires, have only betrayed the nervousness

of the borderers—riot aroused the clans of

Missouri. In fact, the people begin to smell an ar

rant humbug in the whole "fire and fury"

despatches from Kansas.

ADULTERATED LIQUORS.—In the counfy

of Middlesex, New Jersey, a petition is being got up, to be presented to the next

Legislature of that State, asking for the passage of a law to prevent the manufac

ture or sale of adulterated or impure liquors It is proposed to subject offenders to fine

and imprisonment. The potion reads:

'Poisonous compounds under the name of liquor, are daily sold to the inhabitants of this State, the effect of the use of which is not so much to intoxicate as to render insane that the use of such drinks has introduced, and will continue to introduce, fearful diseases heretofore unknown to our race, and spread vice and immortality broad-cast over the land and that the cause of humanity imperitively calls for some immediate legislative action on the subject."

SOCIETY IN ST. PETERSBUROII.—In no place is fashion so observed as in this capital this shows how unripe our development is our way of dressing is foreign to us.—• In Europe, people merely dress we always are in costume, and therefore we arc afraid of the sleeves being too large, or the collar being to narrrow. In Paris, people fear nothing but being dressed without taste in London, they fear nothing but catching a cold, in Italy, everybody goes as he likes. But was one to exhibit the lions of the Newsky promenade at St. Petesburgh, those battalions All alike in their fast buttoned coats, an Englishman would believe them to be a division of policemen.—Ilerzen's Siberia.*

THE CELESTIALS IN* AUSTRALIA.—The same sentiment of hostilit}- towards Chinese emigants which has manifested itself in California, has aiso sprung up and bccome even more fully developed in Australia.— The principal cause of this hostility is that the Celestials in California, as in Australia, do nothing to promote the prosperity of the country they come to, their sole aim being to extract just enough of the precious metal to enable them to return in comparative wealth to the Flowery Kingdom.

ENGLAND AND THE UNITED STATES. The London correspondent of the New \ork Herald is informed that the manufacturing interest of the north of England intend shortly to convene two great national meetings at Liverpool &nd Manchester, to denounce the belligerent policy of Lord Palmerston, and to express for the United States those sentiments of respect and regard which feeling nnd interest alike dictate.

NUNE-

MACHER of this place. It was first published some twelve years since, in New York, but as only a small edition was printed, it soon run out, and owing to the constant enquiries for it Mr. N.'determined to republish it, which he has done. The author's name is Rev. B. R. HALL, of Brooklyn, N. Y. The book was first published under the fictitious name of "Robert Carltou," which name has been continued in the present edition.

Mr. HALL left his home in the East some twenty-five years since, to try his fortunes in the far YVest. He settled at Gosport, Ind. At that lime all that section of country was called the "new purchase"—hence ihe name of the book. Mr. HALL resided at Gosport, or rather where Gosport now is, for three years, when he moved to Bloomington and opened a Female Seminary.— lie afterwards became Principal of the State University at Bloomington, when, owing to the dissensions in the Faculty, he resigned, :ind returned to the East.

The "New Purchase" is a literal and truthful description of life in the West a quarter of a century ago—and faithfully depicts the customs, character, "lingo," and habits of the settlers. It is replete with humor, and to one who has never seen the reality, its graphic description must be highly entertaining.

The work will doubtless be very extensively rend and purchased in that section of the State where its scenes are located, and we therefore propose to give a key, whereby it may be more readilv understood and appreciated. First, as to places: Bloomington is represented as Woodville Gosport as Glenville Spencer ns Spiceburg Indianapolis as Tinibcrapolis. Secondly, as to persons: The author appears in two characters, as Carlton, and the Rev. Charles Clarence. Col. Wilmar we will call Gen. MCCALLA,of Kentucky Prof. Ifarwood, will answer for our neighbor HARNEY of the Louisville .Democrat Ex-Gov. WHITCOMIJ appears us Wra. Cut?well, Dr. BREUKEN BRIDGE as Bishop Shrub AUSTIN SEWARD of Bloomington, as Vulcanus Alhcart, Gen. LOWE of Bloomington, as Gen. Jacobus, Dr. MAXWELL of Bloomington, as Dr. Sylvan, Jxo. M. YOUNG as John Glenville. Rev. Dr. WYLTE as Dr. Bloduplex, Among the students spoken of are Gov. WRIGHT and WM. MCKEE DUNN of Madison—but as the former appears to some adadvantage we shall not mention his alias.— The medical student who aided in resurrecting the Indian Chief "Red Fire," and who did such tall running, is none other than PARIS C. DUNNING, Ex-Lieut. Governor of the State. We might here state, also, that the head of "Red Fire" was sent to Dr. CLAPP of this city, who sent it to Dr. MORTON of Philadelphia, the celebrated ethnologist, in whose collection it now is.

The "New Purchase" we can recommend as an entertaining and humorous work, and one in which the "mirror is held up to nature" It will richly repay perusal, particularly to those who are little acquainted with the peculiarities of backwoods life.— —3r. A. Tribune.

TIIE BEAUTY OF CHINESE SCKNKUV.—Two American gentlemen have recently pentrated the country for some distance in the neighborhood of Shanghae. They write as follows: "The country has been charming—hills, valleys, groves and streams being found in of IlomanofisKv. pleasing variety tains each The mour though many of them arc covered with bamboo, so common in this country. The streams are all rapid and clear," llowing over a pebbly or rocky bed. On their banks are numerous small paper manufactories. The principal machinery con.-isls of an over-shot water wheel, with a huge trip-hammer, which pulverizes the material, chiefly bamboo, of which the paper is made." Of a view from the top of Heaven's hye Mountain, which is two hundred miles south-west of Shanghae, and which is nearly a miie above the level of the sea, they tlius wriic: '"The view surpasses all

were mountains. The intervening valleys were cultivated, many of them ornamented by streamlets which glittered in the rays of the morning sun like threads of silver."

THE TOHV OATH OP 1776.—I, A doswenrtobc true to IlisMajesty, King George, and to serve him honestly and faithfully in defence of his person, crown, and dignity against all his enemies in North America, or oppo.sers whatever to keep secret, and to observe and obey the order of my superior officer that shall be issued to me from time to time. So help me God. I A do swear to keep secret all that you shall say or read to me, and not reveal the same to blood relations or any other person whatever. So help me God."

The above is the oath taken bj* the Tories of the revolution—is there anything more infamous in this Oath than the'Oath by the Know Nothings? Are not the sentiments of each the same? This Tory oath, as does the I\. N's, end with the sacrilegious, "bo help me God." Well, God did help them to a rope round their necks, and their name, and posterity into contempt and disgrace, as he will the present Know Nothing fraternity.— Chicago Time?.

fey** The N. \. Times is discussing the subject of a union between the United States and Mexico. -.

v.£ WISCONSIN ELECTION. Owing to the almost innumerable and

conflicting reports respecting the election in Wisconsin, we have heretofore refrained from expressing any opinion as to the result. Bat, as it is now conceded on all hands that the entire Democratic ticket has succeeded over the combined efforts of Know-Noth-ings, Black Republicans, Maine Lawites, Free Lovers, fcc., by a majority ranging from 800 to 3,000, in a State which last year elected the whole Fusion ticket by near 8,000 majority, it gives more than usual gratification to refer to it. and join the Democracy of the Union in expression of joy at the result. This is a victory of no common import. The doctrine of non-in-tervention, as contained in the Nebraska Bill, was made the issue, and the success of the Democratic party shows that are turning sense of justice has lain hold of the people there, as in several other States where elections have recently been held and having cast off the incubus of sectionalism, they wheel themselves with alacrity into the ranks of the Democratic party— the only party whose principles are tiie same in Maine" and Califarnia, Wisconsin and South Carolina. The battle was an open one—the Union on the one hand disunion on the other—and Wisconsin comes out of the struggle with untarnished bono'and unsullied name. The hideous monster, Fusion, which has for a time been sucking tho life-blood of the ComonweaUh, has been buried deep in. the execration of an injured people—in a grave DO deep for the combined machination of the motley group of disunion traitors to resurrect it from.

The notorious Booth trampled under foot the Constitution of the United States, which declares that "fugitives from labor shall be given up," headed a mob, tore open a jail, at set at liberty a slave in the hands of the law.

Fusion applauded the act, and succeedcd in carrying the State in 1854, hordes of villains set law at defiance and infuriated mobs established the only court of justice. But orient day ever follows dismal night, and reason always hurries on the desukorv track of rash, infuriated wrong, and Wisconsin, to-day, stands redeemed, an honor to herself and an honor to the Union.

The enemy have been met upon their own ground, and their defeat is overwhelming. Great is the victory, and great should bo the rejoicing.

According to it the church has about ninety-five missionaries in .Europe, and an equal number in Asia, Airica find the Pacific isles, besides large numbers of native elders in the various fields of labor, and a considerable number scattered throughout the United States and British America.
