Democratic County Convention.

The Democracy of Montgomery county, will assemble at Crawfordsville. on

Saturday, August 7th.

for the purpose of nominating a county tickct.

THE CONVENTION.

The Democratic Congressional Convention at Lebanon, on last Thursday, was one of the largest and most enthusiastic political demonstrations that we have ever witnessed in the district. Judge BI.AKE, of Clinton county, was nominated by acclamation, and will immediately commeucc the campaign. The Judge is a whole-souled, generous-hearted man, that makes troops of friends wherever lie goes, and our word for it, he will beat Wilson by a handsome majority. We congratulate the Democracy of the district upon this nomination.

We have in the person of Judge BLAKE, TI candidate who stands fair and square upon the Cincinnati Platform, and whose whole life has been devoted in the service of the party. Aside from his sterling political integrity aud devotion to democratic principles, his character as an honest, upright and sober citir.cn, has never been questioned, and which certainly will have its cffcct upon the moral sentiment, of the people of the eighth district, irrespective of partizan feeling.

We shall publish the full proceedings of the Convention in our next issue.

txiT The nomination of Judge BLAKK is well received, and the Democracy of Montgomery county will give him a vigorous support. If the Black Republicans expect any division in our ranks on account of that miserable humbug, "bleeding Kansas," we commend them to the following 'forcible expression of Judge Douglas, in his rcccnt great speech at Chicago: "I stand by the Democratic organization, yield obedience to its usages, and support its regular uominccs.

JIM WILSON AN1) TIIE "OLD LINE DOGS." Each party has now a candidate

Congress in this District. Lest any Democrat, of 1856, should hesitate about supporting Judge Blake, we call his attention to that bitter and insolent speech of Jim Wilson's, spoken at the corner of the Crane House, in this place, the night of the Republican jollification over his election.— "Thank God!" said he, "I have at last got my foot on the necks of the Old Line Do and mean to keep it there'." Think of A that sentimcut. If iu Montgomery county there is a Democrat deserving the name of "Old Line Dog," is it not him who would •vote for Wilson after such a speech? His "foot is on our necks," is it? Arc we "Old Line Dogs?" IiCt us avenge this ..wanton insult at the polls.

A FOUL LIBEL.

Some of the Black Republicans, toadies we presume, of James Wilson, are circulating reports that Judge Blake is a notorious drunkard. Every person acquainted with the Judge, knows Uut this is afoul and malicious lie. The Bepublicaas are abound, it seems, to make temperance an .issue in this race, and arc already stigmatizing Blake as being the candidate of the whiskey party.

THE DISTRICT COH^EHTIOH—JtESOIJVTIOIIS. The following were the resolutions adopted by the Convention on last Thursday:

Resolved, That the Democracy of the 8th Congressional District, in Convention assembled, reaffirm all the principles of the party asserted in the Cincinnati platform and the platform of the 8th January last.

Resolved, That we have full confidence in the wisdom, patriotism, and integrity of James Buchanan, Indiana's first choice for the Presidency, and that we will give him our undivided support.

Two other resolutions were adopted, one declaring against the British claim to a right to visit and scarch American vessels, the other in favor of a homestead for actual settlers.

We cannot well sec how Democrats can find fault with the resolutions quoted above in full. The Lccoinpton men have an expression of full confidence in the wisdom, patriotism and integrity of the President. Anti-Leeompton men find no endorsement of Lecompton, no endorsement of, or acquicscncc in, the Green-English bill, notli ing, in short, but a re-affirmation of all the principles asserted in the Cincinnati plat-form-and that of last January. The Convention very wisely refused to say anything about persons, with the exception of the President and as Lecompton is referred to thc-pcople and thus disposed of, and as Mr. Buchanan's expressed hope that, hereafter the policy of submitting Constitutions to the people will be adopted as a rule, is, at this time, his position upon the vexed question, no Democrat can refuse to render him a hearty and earnest support.

As concerns the trouble that has agitated the party, we have no hesitation in saying that the above resolutions, brief, broad, and pertinent as they are, were the very wisest that could possibly have been selected. They give neither side a triumph, at the same time, they exact uo sacrifice of honor or principle from either. They omit nothing necessary to define the position and principles of the Democracy. Mr. Blake takes his position upon them, and that is sufficient.

DANIEL VOORI1EES. This gallant champion of Democracy will be found in the thickest of the fight in the present campaign. He will enlighten the people of the Eight District on the infamous frauds perpetrated by the Black Republicans in Fountain county.

LEW WALLACE.

Groat credit is due this gentleman for his wise and conciliatory efforts to restore harmony in the party nt the Congressional Convention at Lebanon. Lew is a Democrat in every sense of the word.

IIUUI!AII FOR BLAKE.—The nomination of Blake is the only topic of conversation. Everybody is delighted with this excellent choice of the Democracy.

THE CAMPAIGN.

Extensive arrangements have been perfected, whereby the present campaign will be carried on with an effective energy heretofore unknown in the district. Let every old liner roll up his sleeves for action.— The time for demolishing Black Republicanism has arrovc.

HOW 1113 RECEIVES IT.

The nomination of Judge BLAKE,, the little giant of Clinton county, is exceeding Iy distasteful to Wilson. When he first heard of the nomination, his countenance assumed an ashy paleness, and he looked a good deal like the boy that let the bird go. Knowing the striking contrast (in a moral point of view) that he will present to the people of the eighth district, compared with his competitor, lie dreads his arraignment before the bar of public opinion. His meeting Blake on the stump, will be like Beelzebub confronting Ithuriel.

\mong the luxuries enjoyed by the

Crawfordsville delegation at. Lebanon, on last Thursday, was a feast of green corn. At night the entire delegation amused themselves with catchingbcd-bugs. Lebanon is a great place, situated near the Court House. Its population consists of a Mr. Buckingham, editor of the Pioneer, and is rapidly increasing.

CLNTRAL COMMITTEE.

The Central Committee will meet at the Review Office on Monday evening next.— Important business will be transacted.

DAN RICK'S GREAT SHOW.—This celebrated and novel establishment of Dan's f°r I will exhibit here on Mondav, the 26th.—

If Dan dou't have a crowd on that day we shall be greatly mistaken.

CRAIG

&

Co.—This firm arc receiving

daily large invoices of new goods. There can be no question but that this establishment hereafter will be the great central mart of trade for Montgomery and surrounding counties. The immense quantity of goods, their superior quality, and the astounding low prices at which they arc sold, has already attracted a large trade, and is rapidly diverting from a huudrcd channels the business of old established houses.— Every farmer and mechanic can save fifty per cent, by trading at this establishment. This is no boast, but an absolute fact.

•^"Thc Dubuque Times says that all hopes that the democrats of Iowa would split upon Lecompton business must now be given up, and that the republicans must meet and vanquish as heretofore a united democracy.

WON'T HOIST HIS NAME.—The Warren County Republican refuses to hoist Wilson's name. The defection is growing rapidly. will knock the persimmon this time.

So, silly heart, break not your dreaming, Nor let a care trouble your sleep— Why make this poor life along labor,

And never a holiday keep?

From Riisscl's Letters from India.

DESCRIPTION OF A NIGHT MARCH. The first bugle goes at two in the morning, but an hour before that there is such a hum and bustle in the camp that sleep is very difficult. Camels and elephants and bullock hackeries are being loaded with tents and equippage camp-fires crackle sharply round your bed, which, these hot nights, is spread under the stars, and mosquitoes, and "Ramdecn!" and "Madrce," and "Sam," aud "Simon," and rude dialogues in uncouth tongues break your slumbers your tent is already struck and looming to a prodigious size the camels quiet now they are loaded and their fate is sealed, stalk away in long files to the road close at hand, where creaking hackeries already throw up dense clouds of dust, invisible but palpable in the night the horses are saddled, each with his sable attendant by his side, and by the light of the camp lanterns the servants arc getting ready the stirrup cup of tea for their masters shouts resound, "Are you ready yet?" "Who's that?" "I'll meet you on the road and at last commences the slow, tedious, inevi table navigation of horse and man through the troubles of that sea of carts, camels and elephants, goats, oxen and human beings.

Men are too cross to talk much at such unseasonable hours. They are very severe, however, to peccant charioteers who get in the way. They ride on in couples or in a single file, morosely indifferent to Jones being "a little seedy this morning," or Brown's declaration that "the instant— the very instant he can get away lie will go home, and quit the something or other service." The road is hard and full of holes by the side are margins of deep dust but as tho road is white at night, you know where you are going.

Presently there is a sound of music heard in the distance behind you It is 3 o'clock, and the column has moved off, inspirited by the strains of a truly British band. Another hour along the white Hue of ride, bounded on both sides by level plains, even with the sky, with clumpy islands of forest trees a mosque by a tank a deserted village. Another hour is passed, and the stars, which have been twinkling very gloriously, begin to pale their fires at last, as the sun sends us a mellow tone of rosy color to herald his advent into the bright blue sky, and gives a note to warn us he is coming. The jackals and wolves, with short, frightened barks, dash across the road to their covers owls and bats, big and little, glide quickly homewards, and the tree partridge and the mino (a kind of starling), and the green parrot wake up, and prepare to make a day of it.

More mosques and Hindoo temples, tanks, villages of mud, where the scanty population arc lying out ou their bedsteads asleep in the streets, come in sight, then a group of men armed with matchlocks and tulwars, seated by tho roadside, who rise and salaam as you approach—village policemen then that nomad population, which ever travels on the Grand Trunk road, and whose waning watehfires you see among the trees as you pass along—all this time camels, elephants, oxen and men, tramping alongside yon fast as you ride—till you coinc to a great crowd of dust by the road side, under a large grove of trees.

The animals stream in, and arc arranged in order, Sir Colin and two or three of his staff come up, and the General has a few pleasant words for every one before he goes to his tent, which has just been pitched. We must wait a little longer. We sleep in the shade at the foot of trees, and afford fine sport for the ants and for the lively members of the party who like sketching. At last the "mess tent is pitched," sends us all to its friendly shelter to finish our sleep on the ground, till the "dum-di-dum" of the drum announces the approach of the column.

The head of the procession is turning off here, and tho plains under the trees are filled with cattle. Already Capt. Allgood and Capt. Johnson, of the QuartermasterGeneral's Department, arc on the spot marking out the site of the various tents. "The Chief's is here." "Well, put Sterling here." "The Chief of the Staff must get his tree over him "Well, put him there," and so on, and as quick as the words so pharaphrascd, the kclassies mark ground, and—luxury of luxuries—the mess camels have arrived, and just as the sun has got entangled amid the lower branches of the trees, the khausaman presents each officer with a cup of tea.

It is now 6 o'clock and breakfast is ready. As soon as it is over the hot winds begin, every man rushes to his tent, the kuskas tatties (frames filled with a sort of grass, fitting to the tent doors, and kept constantly watered, so that the hot air is cooled somewhat before it enters) are put up, and then for heat, and swelter, and torpor for the rest of the daj-, till an hour before sunset, at which time the hot wind generally ceascs. Before the tatty got to work to-day the thermometer stood at 109 deg. in my tent—the air outside was burning, blazing hot—not a soul, except the natives, was to be seen stirring in camp, and it was as much as I could do to get from one extremity of our ground to the other, in order to pay a visit to-day.

—[From the Indiaaopolia Journal, 10.]., THE WHEAT CSOFS IW WDIAlf A.

A# the barrest progresses the news of the wheat yield grows worse^ The promise held out by the huge straw and rank heads which the wet weather produced, has been too often falsified, as many fair promises have been before. The big heads have proved to be empty or but half filled, and the tall stalks, like other tall bodies, very precious-little at their tops. A correspondent at Winchester, whose letter we published yesterday, gives us minute and reliable intelligc-ncc of the yield in that quarter, and it was not particularly encouraging. Such reports as we receive from persons in this vicinity do not sound much better. From other points we hear the same unpleasant news. The Hendricks Ledger says that the crop in that county is about the "rustiest" ever known, and the papers along the White and Wabash rivers talk of "rust," big straw and light grain. The eastern portions of the State the harvest so far reported, has not equalled the expectations of two weeks ago. The ruin of the "rust," has been greater than was anticipated, and has only really beeu found out since the "cradle" brought it within reach of examination. A light crop is the fate of the greater part of Central, Western and Eastern Indiana, we fear, though in those quarters there are many localities that will yield heavily, and help raise to average some of their lighter and less favored neighbors. But the whole State is not threatened alike, we are glad to state. The letter of Mr. Dillion, Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, from Laporte county, which is published in auother place, tells that the wheat in Laporte is good, averaging over twenty bushels to the acre for the whole country, and in some quarters reaching an average of thirty. Such a yield all over the State would make a crop the like of which was never known. It proves that Northern Indiana has enjoyed to a considerable extent, humanity from the damaging weather influences that have so pinched the rest of the State. We say "Northern Indiana," because we have news that induces us to think Laporte is not more than a fair average of the rest of that region.— Tho Valparaiso Republican one of the best and most reliable exchanges we have, said a few days ago of the wheat in Porter county. "The wheat crop cannot be surpassed—tall rank and heavy, with long heads which will soon be filled. Never was there more wheat sown, and never a better prospect than before us."

From such indications we arc disposed to think that Northern Indiana will turn out a very good lot of wheat but the rest of the State with, of course, numerous exceptional localities will fall short of an average. The "rust" has done a vast deal of mischief this year.

GRASS? WIDOWS IN INDIANA.—A facetious correspondent of the Dayton Journal who has boon travelling out in the Wabash regions of Iloosierdom, noting the condition of the country, the state of crops, the progress of the harvest, &c.—the two latter of which lie reports as usually fine— discovered one peculiarity in every town he tarried in. Hear him

Speaking of grass reminds mo of the fact that Indiana (and particularly the Wa basli) is literally swarming with grass widows. Every hotel or tavern has or have had one or move of those bewitching vixens, domiciled with them for ten dai/s, which makes them citizens and residents of tho State of Indiana, aud with a little hard swearing, natives, too. A the expiration of ten days a suit is commenced igaiust some vile husband, and, as a matter of course, a divorce is granted, if for no other cause than incompatibility of temper. Here arc congregated from all the States in the Union (exccpt Illinois, who is a competitor for this profitable lawyer trade) all the disconsolate grass widows. A case I heard of in Peru, where the widow of a millionaire had come from Brazil, remained here ten days, got her divorce, with $800,000 of alimoney, and would have had more, but old Croesus had no more in the United States that was conicatablc.

RAREY'S METHOD OF IIOItSE-T VMING. The Scientific American says:

This new system of taming is founded on the well-known process employed in subduing buffalo calves and wild horses taken by the lasso, and consists in simply and gradually advancing toward the horse to be subdued until you arc able to place your hand on the animal's nose and over his eyes, and then to breathe strongly and gedtly, as judgment may dictate, into the nostrils. Wc have the authority of C'atlin, in his "Letters and Notes on Americans Indians,

hands over the eyes of a buffalo calf, and

breathed into his nostrils, after which I have, with my traveling companions, rode several miles into our encampment, with the little prisoner busily following the heels of my horse the whole way, as closely and affectionately as its instincts would attach it to its dam. This is one of the most extraordinary things I have witness-, ed since I came into this wild country and

SENATOR DOVSLMr

In a speech in the 'Senate, Jane 16, 1858, Judge Douglas spoke as follows: I resisted with all my strength and energy the attempt to force the people of Kansas into the Union with a constitution known to be /epugnant to their wishes, without 'first giving them an opportunity to reject it and I rejoice to say that we resisted it successfully until the attempt was abandoned and the question of admission was referred back to the people of Kansas to be decided by them at the polls. Although the struggle was long, exciting, and exhausting, it resulted in the abandonment of the attempt to force the Lecompton constitution on the people of Kansas, and in that abandonment was a clear recognition of the principle that the assent of the people must be first had and obtained before any instrument can rightfully become their fundamental law. The question of admission was remanded to the people of Kansas, to be decided for themselves at an election to be held, in pursuance of law, for that purpose thus again recognizing the principle for which I had contended during the whole controversy, that the people had a right to decide for themselves the question of admission under the constitution. When I saw in the bill the recognition of the principle, I deeply regretted that the provisions of the bill and form of submission were not such as I could sanction with my vote. I expressed this regret at the time and indicated two amendments, whiteh, if they could have been adopted, would have enabled me to vote for the bill. But when the bill became a law the whole questien was remanded to Kansas, to be decided at an election which has been fixed for the first Monday in August. Which ever way the people of Kansas may decide the question at that election will be final and conclusive. If they reject the proposition submitted by Congress, the Lecompton constitution is dead, and there is an end of the controversy. If, on the contrary, they accept the "proposition," Kansas, from the moment becomes a State of the Union and thus the controversy terminates. Whether they shall accept or reject the proposition is a question for the people of Kansas to decide for themselves, with which neither Congress nor the people of the several States, nor any person, official or otherwise, outside of that Territory has any right to interfere.' Hence, the Lecompton controversy is at an end for all men, of all parties, must be content with and abide by wharcver decision the people of Kansas may make. It is true that the same question may arise on the application of some other Territory for admission into the Union. I am prepared to give notice that whenever that question may again arise I shall be found maintaining and vindicating the same principle which I have

Democrats, but men of all _parties, that

whatever decision the people of Kansas may make at the election on the first Monday in August next must be final and conclusive.

Now, if we can agree, as I have always avowed my willingness to do, to sustain President Buchanan's reoomnieudation, that in all future cases the constitution shall be submitted to the people, as was required in the Minnesota case, all matters of dispute and controversy will be at an end, aud our territorial policy will be placed on a wise and just basis.

AN OCEAN TEIP IN A BALLOON.—J. Stainer, of Harrisburg, Pa., proposes to cross the Atlantic in a balloon, 100 feet in diameter. He says in a letter to thc Tele­

graph— "I am satisfied in my own mind that with such an apparatus I could cross the Atlantic in 75 hours, and the whole cost would be not more than $20,000. The balloon, net work and valve would weigh about 2,000 lbs., and the boat and rigging, three tons and a half this will leave about eight tons ascending power, for provisions, passengers and ballast. It would require three good ocean navigators, and one astronomer, besides myself. I would suggest New York as the starting point, and am certain I would strike within two hundred miles of any given distance in Europe. I would suggest May as the time, for making the experiment, and would make the attempt in 1859, if I could get th? government or others to assist mc."

The Agricultural Bureau of the

Patent Office is extending its useful efforts to promote the interests of the farmer. It is making preparations to test the cultivation of tea in this country. The seed will be preserved in China especially for the purpose, planted in glass cases and shipped in October. By the time of their arrival here they will have sufficiently sprouted to be set out in beds. After being tested here, the plants, if successful, will be distributed among the Southern States. An order for a great variety of seeds will also be sent to Egypt in a few days, through a house in London. This list includes wheat, barley, rice, clover, (Trifolium Alezandrinvm), &c., &c. In the many experiments of this kind which the department has undertaken, there may be some failures, but the general result is no doubt highly beneficial to the country, and must add to ita agricultural wealth.
