MAJOR .MACE.

The Lafayette Republican papers refuse to answer in regard to this gentleman's position. Their silence is a frank acknowledgment of our suspicion that the Major will not. support Wilson, and that lie has withdrawn from the Black Republican party. With the defection of such men as Major Mace, who can doubt (he defeat of Wilson in October. Hundreds of democrats who went off with the Major in 1854, arc back as ain in tho ranks.

tS'Wc have cheering news from Warren. Judge Blake will carry over four hundred republican votes in that county. Wilson killed himself last fall. It was then lie drew on the poisoned "shirt of Nesfiua," and® despite the warning of his friends that there teas death in the cup," he heeded not, but pursued a course that was shocking and disgraceful to the honor and good character of the eight congressional district. Is it not so Dr. Frv 1

TilE ADMISSION OF KANSAS. Wc arc pleased to see that the Democracy are resolved that Kansas shall be admitted as a State whenever she shall make application, without any regard to tho number of inhabitants. This is right, and while we rcjoice that the people of that territory have defeated the schemes of the villians that concoctcd the Lecompton fraud, wc shall coutcnd for her admission as a sovereign State whenever she shall make application, and without any regard to the number of inhabitants she may possess. Judge Blake stands firm on this position!

We call the attention of our read­

ers, in another column, to the letter from Judge BLAKE. The Judge is making a Fplendid canvass. Jim Wilson, the negroequality candidate, is fast losing ground.

WIIANGDOODLE GRIP.F. Our neighbor of the Journal is evidently vexed with the selections of candidates made by the Democratic Convention. His sympathies for Messrs. Canine, Gott and Misner, are unparalleled in the history of human woe. Aminadab Sleek never shed half the tears over the condition of the natives of Passamaquody Bay, as dear Jerry has over these gentlemen. If we arc to believe his sympathies genuine, there is little doubt, that had Mr. Gott been the nominee, George W. Hall would have stood no sight, for the Republican party would have been so pleased with Mr. G. that they would have all voted for him unanimously?

Wc must confcp?. that as a party, we arc vcrv unfortunate. Do what we may, we can't for the life of us please these sclfsacrifieing, pious-hearted Black Republicans. If we stand up, we are too tall, if wc sit down, we are too short in fact it is next to impossible to satisfy them.

It is an old saying that "charity begins at home," and wc are sure there arc gentlemen in the Republican household that need sympathy and condolence—not from strangers, but from their own friends, and it would be in much better taste for Mr. Kccncy to sit down in sack-cloth and ashes and mourn with Messrs. Ileaton, Fry and Walkup. Every one of these gentlemen believe, as do their friends, that they were more deserving of a nomination for county treasurer, than Win. II. Schooler. Mr. Hcaton is a poor man, a zealous Republican and a devout christian, who believes with his beloved pa3tor, that gambling and drunkenness is an abomination in the eyes of God. His competency to fill the office was unquestioned, yet notwithstanding all this, he was rudely choked off by a miserable clif/uc of wire-pullers tiiat manage and control the conventions of the republican party. The same may be said of Messrs. Walkup and Fry, both excellent men, whose claims were far superior to Schooler's. They had never held an office. For many years they had been earnest and faithful laborers in the vineyard of Africa, but the Bourbon Clique knew them not. Walkup had once acted with the Democratic party, that was an offcncc—a stain that could never be effaced. Fry was a native of Kentucky, a'bad locality for a Republican. Had he been born on this side of the Ohio, or even on the Pedce in the Carolinas, the land of the lories, his claims might have been entitled to more respect,—and, possibly, respectability of character and conipctcncy to fill a public trust might have triumphed over artful chicanery and unblushing scouudrelism, as ever disgraced the most corrupt cabal of political rottenness in a civilized government. Let Mr. Koeney mourn over his own household. Africa is at his door, claiming and beseeching a share of his wb^l^dootUc ^rief that is fritted awaj^upj

at his folly.

RORIJKRV.—Patrick McMullen, an Irishman, who for a long time has been in the employ of Mr. Samuel Gilliland, of this county, was robbed on last Thursday night of some three hundred dollars in gold.— Patrick was on his way south, and while waiting for the train got drunk. Crawfordsville is growing rapidly in iniquity, notwithstanding we have a preacher to every ten inhabitants:

MESSAGE OF THE LORD MAYOR OF LONDON. NEW YORK, Aug. 24.

The following" message was received today from the Lord Mayor of London: LONDON, Aug. 23, 1858. To the Memorable D. F. Tiemann, Mayor of Nctv York:

The Lord Mayor of London cordially reciprocates the congratulations of the Mayor of New York upon the success of so important an undertaking as the completion ot' the Atlantic telegraph cable. It is indeed one of the mo3t glorious triumphs of the age, and reflects the highest credit upon the energy, skill, and perseverance of the parties entrusted with so difficult a duty and the Lord Mayor sincerely hopes that, by the blessing of Almighty God, it may be the means of cementing the kind feelings which now exist .between the two countries.

INCONSISTENCY OF the OPPOSITION. Never has a party made a more ridiculous record than have the Republicans upon the Territorial policy of the country.— This is shown most forcibly in the action of the Republican members of the last Congress in their votes upon the applications of Minnesota and Kansas for admission into the Union. The Cincinnati Enquirer, in an article upon the subject, makes the following forcible illustration of the inconsistency of the Republicans in their votes upon those applications:

Now, what was the policy pursued by many of the Republicans in Congress in rcspect to these applications They voted to keep the free State of Minnesota out of the Union, although she had a jwpulation of two hundred thousand people, but, at the same session, voted for a bill which allowed Kansas, which they now claim had but thirty-fi.ee thousand people, to come into the Union as a slave State, if it teas the desire of her people so to do. In other of its devotion to the interests of freedom and free States, declared, by its votes in Congress, that two hundred thousand people coultl not make a free State in Minnesota, but thirty-fee thousand might, make a slave State in Kansas.

HON. JOHN W.

13th, 1858.

BLAKE,

Datr Sir:—Feeling a deep interest in the nature of the final, settlement of the Kansas questiin, we desire you to say whether, in the event of your election to the next Congress, yon will or Trill not vote for the admission of Kansas into the Union as a State, as soon as she applies with a legally formed Constitution, without regard to the provisions of the English bill.

Your obedient servants, ROBERT HEATII, F. B. EVERETT,

JAMES O'BRIAN, JAMES HOWE,

FRANKFORT, Aug. 16, 1858.

Messrs. Robert Heath, F. B. Everett, J. Isler and others: GENTLEMEN:—Your favor of the 13th inst, making inquiries as to my position on the question of admitting Kansas into the Union, in the event of my election to the next Congress, came duly to hand.

The convention which nominated me for Congress, very properly, in my judgment, refrained from the expression of any opinion upon the vexed Kansas question, evidently regarding it as disposed of by the act passed at the last session of Congress, known as the English bill. That act in effect provides that if a majority of the people of Kansas vote for the adoption of tho Lecompton Constitution, the Territory should at once be admitted as a State but should that Constitution be rejected, then it shall be deemed and held that tho people of Kansas do not desire admission into the Union as a State under that Constitution and in that event the people of said Territory are authorized to form a Constitution and State Covernment whenever, and not before, it is ascertained by a census that the population of said Territory equals or exceeds the ratio required for a member of Congress. Baltimore, Md

The returns of the late Kansas elections Jr™10™' *a show that the Lecompton Constitution has

been rejected by a large majority, I am not ~.®r, advised whether the people of Kansas rejected that constitution on its merits, or whether they desire to remain in their present Territorial condition—that question will be decided by their future action.

As a member of the Democratic party I do not recognize the right of one Congress to pass any law which a subsequent Congress may repeal, alter or modify and if should be elected and the people of Ivan-

sas should at any time during my term, ap ply for admission into the Union with a legally formed Constitution, which is the will of her people, I should act upon that application regardless of any law whatever now upon the Statute Books and vote for her admission, believing that tho harmany of the country would be promoted tliereby.

I am respectfully yours, JOHN'W. BLAKE.

LIEBIG THE CHEMIST.—A correspondent of The Rural New Yorker gives the following description of Liebig, the agricultural chemist: "On the last day which I passed in Munich, I went to hear the world-renowned chemist, Liebig, lecture. His labratory aud lccture room arc in the same house in which he resides. When he entered the lecture room the students all rose to receive him, and lie acknowledged their attention by a polite bow. He wore a black dress-coat and white pantaloons. Liebig is a fine intellectual looking man, tall, tho' not broad has iron-gray hair, which has fallen off from his broad and projecting forehead he wears no beard. He lectures in a very conservative manner, part of the time sitting makes many gestures, and good ones too. His facc is expressive.— He is indeed a good deal of an orator, and perhaps the best popular lecturer in Germany. Liebig was fifty-six years old on the 12th of May, 1857. He was born in Darmstadt, and at the age of twenty-one was made Professor at Gicssen. In 1852 lie came to Munich. Between the years 1832 and 1856 he published one hundred and seventy-seven papers, many of which were very elaborate. He is said to be proud and overbearing he is, however, on the side of Progress, and heads the Reform party in the Uuiversity. I heard an American gentleman, who was well acquainted with him, express this opinion:—

"I don't know a man whom a little judicious damning would do as much good to as Liebig. He is cross and tyrannical to his assistants, and they do not deserve suchjtreatment."

THE FRAZER RIVER POSSESSIONS. The British Government has changed the name of New Caledonia, which embraced the Frazer River country, to Columbia. The first name was given in compliment to the seltler9, who were chiefly Scotch. They have adopted the new name in commemoration.of the great discoverer of the continent, Tbut distinguish it from the Columbia in the United States by the addition of British.

ATROCITIES IN MADAGASCAR. The following distressing account has been received from Madagascar, where the natives have for some time committed great excesses:

A French vessel, the Marie Caroline, of Nantes, having gone to Madagascar, received an order from King Vinang of He-na-Be, to anchor off Soua-llano, the ordii'""j ui unit jiuMy porentatc.—

In the letter referred to, after speaking of sonic experiments lie had made, lie says:

Yinang then gave him a house to reside in for the time necessary for his negotiations, and on the following day ten men and women were procured for him. Only a few days, however, elapsed before the king began to carry his guilty projects into execution. The boy was first killed by a blow from a saber, aud the captain destroyed by a musketball.

Scsircely had they entered into negotiations on the deck of the vessel than oue of the Maligaches drew a pistol and shot the mate dead.— This was the signal for a general massacre of the crew. Two of tho sailors saved themselves in the rigging, another was drowned, and the fourth reached the shore, but seriously wounded, all the rest- being killed. The vessel was then taken into the river Soua-Rano, where she was pillaged and then burnt. A letter from St. De nis of the 13th of April, in confirming this account, states that the men who escaped the massacre were still alive. It, however, announces that Souniounna, King of Mourouinbe, the bay of which place is called by the English "Murderer's Bay," had put to death the agent of a rich commercial house at Hamburg, after having taken possession of all his property.

THE SUMMER GRIEF OF HAVANA—Fearful Ravages of the Vomito.—A correspondent of the National Intelligencer says:

An hour in Havana when the vomito reigns would effectually cure one of all filibustering to obtain residence here. Certes, no man in his right mind would accept it as a bonus on condition of remaining the year throughout. Winter may diminish but cannot divest the city of its "summer grief." As I left the harbor this morning an officer of the British steamer said, "and that ship you see by itself, its sails all hanging loose, was this morning towed from the wharf and moored there by the authorities, all having died!" The poi&on was never more plainly discernable than now no one can forget its smell, nor the stinking fog which, as the sun rises, shoots up and disappears from the hot harbor like steam from the locomotive, without the whistle for, though all arc upon his track, Death gives no warning. More than half the sailors have died, and as no fresh ones come it must cease. Like stricken victims, a few vessels may be seen leaving the harbor by the first breeze these few have enough left to sail away, but not enough to manage the empty ship. The truth can only be learned by visiting (at hotels) the sea captains, making acquaintance, and becoming]interestcd in what they tell you. The details xcould not be credited.

From the H. Y. Courier and Znqnirrr.^ THE WHEAT CBOP OF, 19Mb The wheat crop in the MTeral' States may "be considered aa harvested and partiafij ready for market. We can, therefore, give the following retains with some degree of certainty:

New YorV—The crop is under the last year's'about fifteen per cent., lmt thequality is much better.

Pennsylvania—The crop is folly on average one, but ten per cert, less than lastyear per acre.

Maryland— Tho crop is an average one, but less per acre, and better in quality,. than last year.

Virginia—The wheat crop in this State is twenty per cent, less than last year for the amount of ground in cultivation, and the quality not much superior.

North Carolina—The crop in this States is probably nearer to a total failure thau in any other—the yield being fully fifty per cent, lees than last year, and poor in: quality. 'r ..

Kentucky—The crop is above the average, but less than last year. The qualiT ty, however, is unsurpassed.

Tennessee—The crop is a good one, but under the average in the yield per acre.-— The quality is good.

Missouri—The amount of the wheat crop in this State is not fully known, but it will generally compare well per acre with tho other Western States.

Ohio—The yield of wheat per acre isfulhT twenty per cent, less thau last year, but from the increase of land in cultivation the dccrcase from an average crop will not much exceed ten per cent.

Iowa—The accounts from the center of the State in regard to the wheat crop aro very gloomy. The crop will hardly average ten bushels to the acre. Oats are generally a failure.

Illinois—In Southern Illinois the yield, of wheat is about a fair average, rather undcr than over. TJie winter wheat liaabeeu generally successful, and spring wheat the reverse. In other parts of the State the yield will not be over half the usual crop.

Indiana—In Indiana the yield of wheat has been from one-half to two-thirds of tho average crop.

Minnesota—The yield of wheat in this State is of better quality than usual, and in quantity is nearly two-thirds the usual crop.

Michigan—The yield of wheat in Michigan is over two-thirds an average crop, and generally of good quality.

Wisconsin—The crop of wheat is up to the average, and greater oxtcut in cultivation, compensating for any deficiency in tlie yield per acre.

The upward tendency in wheat, promising good prices and the present fair prices, will, we think, make the receipts at tidewater, this year, nearly equal to those of last year. The quality of last year's wheat is such that an attempt to store it longer will be rninotis. We have reason, therefore, for believing that the movement of the crop to the seaboard will be active for the rest of the year-

Tlie Courier, however, i* sadly at fauTt in its speculations as co the receipts of wheat at tide-water. The receipts will bo at least thirty, and may probably be fifty per cent, ahead of the receipts of lSfw. Already we have this year, to August 1 f/, S 4,02(3,0'»9 bushels, delivered from the canal to tide-water. The receipts in 1857, for the whole season, were 5,703,400 bushels. This deficiency will, in all probability, he made up before September 1, leaving the receipts for September, October and November as so much gain over the receipts of 1857. The receipts in September, October and November, 1857, were 4,17-,ni(j bushels. We do not expect to receive so much as this in September, Oe
