VORHEES CO., vs. WILSON. As tho nominations have been made for Congress, in this District, by both parties, \vc suppose we may with safety say, that the fight lias commenced, and will go

"bravely on" till the second Tuesday of October next. Hon. JAMES WILSON, has favored Mr BLAKE with a challenge, or rather an invitation, to meet him on the stump during the campaign. In reply,

Mr. Blake declines, informing Mr. W., that he should make his own appointments and canvass the district, as he in hh judgement might sue proper. Well, wo judge Blake will make fully as successful a race by himself as lie would canvassing tho dis

trict in the company of Mr. Wilson.— Blake is not so short-sighted as to meet his opponent faec to face, on the Leeomp-

ton and other issues, that must necessarily be brought before the people this year.— But, we are told, that Daniel is again coming to judgement—he worked hard, frothed at the mouth, and all this, in the

A II una way—Accideut.

'Last evening about sun-set, tho people on Washington street were startled by the cry of "runaway"' when their eyes were greeted with a little of tho fastest runuing

they have seen for many years. Mr. II. Braden of this place, who had bi-en out upon the streets, with his horse and buggy, tor his usual evening lide, while going

down Washington street, in the common gait of the horse when all on a sudden 'die borse sprang into a run, kicking as he went and when one square south of the Centre Church, Mr. B. and the young lad}'.

Miss Ilellen Elston, who he had with him. were thrown from the buggy. Miss Hellen was seveiely, though we understand, not dangerously injured. Mr. Braden, did not think he was in any way injured.— Miss Elstoil's physicians upon an examination, and in the cleansing of the wounds, did not think her case at all serious.

A Thorough paced Leeoniplonlte. Tho-National Democrat, a Douglas pa per published at Indianapolis styles Judge Blake, "a thorough-paced Leeomptonite." Just before the Lecompton Convention came off in this district that paper remarked: "With the right kind of a man on the track in the Eighth, tho Democrats would stand more than an even chance of success. Such a man is Manson of Crawfordsviilc, whom the Review announces as a candidate. We have but little hopes however, of his nomination, it being already settled by the 'leaders' in favor of Judge Blake, of Clinton, a thorough-paccd Leeomptonite."

^STReturns from fifteen counties in Kentucky make the aggregate number o!

ing character. It is said that, with the exception of Monroe and Switzerland, Car will lead Hughes in every county in tho district. Wo are assured also that Cobb will beat Carlton for the Senate, in Lawrence and Martin counties, by at least 500. "Dick Ryan," is in the third, taking the wind out of the sails of the U. S. Marshal aud District Attorney Voorhees.— Wheiever Voorhees sows tares, "Dick" follows and sows wheat. He has spoken at Columbus, Bedford, Madison and other places.

The Bedford Democrat of Tuesday, speaking of his speech at that place says: Kutional Democrat.

We had the pleasure on Saturday last of listening to a speech delivered in this place by the gallant young Irishman and eloquent advocate of Democratic principles, Dick Ryan, of Indianapolis. Rarely lias it been our good fortune to listen to a speech so replete with brilliant, oratory, cogent reasoning, withering sarcasm and sparkling flashes of wit.

We wish every Lecompton man in the country could have heard the masterly manner in which he treated the Administration's Kansas policy and that some of them who were present had not so incontinently fled.

The Indiana Association for the Advanecment of Science. Immediately after the adjournment of the Wabash Academy of Science, on the 12th of July, at Crawfordsville, tho miliary steps for the formation of a State Institution wore taken.

A Sign cf the Times.

The Springfield Journal relates the following incident of the late Douglas recep

tion in that city: The Douglasitos on"''Satniday gave a manifestation of their zeal against Mr. Buchanan and fhe National Democratic paity, which was of the most niiiikcd nnd decided chaiaeter. As an indication oi their affection for Mr. Douglas, his followers gathered together as many of their old campaign flags as they could collect, and suspended them across the streets fronting on ihn square. It was di.^eovered, however, that one of them bore upon its foids the ominous letters— 'T1 in Constitution, Buchanan and Breckiniidge."

Instantly the flag was lowered, and in hot haste and with the most superlative couteinpt, the name of "Buchanan" wax turn off. The flag was again hoisted nnd read thus: 'The Gunntitvtion.— andBrecfccnriJge.'

Ji ii the blank .-pace thus 'e told a tale which they wished to conceai, and again the flag was lowered and mutilated and when it once more appeared over the street, the motto was in this shape: "The Constitution, and ."

The blank space made the motto appear most'ridiculous, and excited so much merriment among the bystanders, that the indignant friends of Mr. Douglas again lowered the flag, and with rage and mortification stripped the colors of the entire motto, "The Constitution and'' all.

Judge Bryant.

Judge Bryant, who earned an unenviable notoriety by bald faced partisan deciions and partial rulings, in the Fountain county contested election case, is a candilate for re-election. At least ho has been oliciied to run by democratic friends and it is understood that "Barkus is willin."— La/. Courier.

Senator Henderson, of Texas, giving his

reasons for not voting upon tho Kansas Conference bill: PHILADELPHIA, May 2, 1858.

MAJ. JOHN MARSHALL—My Dear Sir: I left Washington city on day before yesterday evening, just after tho final passage of the Kansas compromise bill, I did not vote on the bill at its passage.

On the morning of the daj the bill finally passed, the President sent for me, and'made such an earnest and strong appeal to me to vote for the bill, and aid in saving his Administration and the Democratic party of the North, as to induce me to leave tho Senate Chamber and not vote at all, as I would havo felt bound to vote against the bill if I had voted.

We are an unfortunate people and when we will be able to present the question in a shape to unite the majority of our people in standing by their rights is hard to foresee. Yonrs, very truly,

We have seen this extract in our exchanges for some days past, as no Democratic paper has denied its authenticity or contradicted it, we are bound to accept it as both genuine and true. What picture of Presidential meanness does it exhibit! What a depth of degradation has the country reached when its chief officer can beg and coax, and importune a member of Congress to vote for a bill! How effectually does it demolish every pretence of theLecompton organs that the President used no influence to pass his pet measure! Here is a confession of tho most direct ami degrading influence, not a wlfit better than a bribe in spirit, and but little better in form. The President, who could do what the dying Senator says Mr. Buchanan did, would bribe just as readily.— Henderson was trembling ou the verge of the grave when he wrote that letter, and

pure, high-hearted Pies-

ident" sent for him to beg him to support, not a measure of beuificence, or a deed ol charity, but a fiaud, a confessed, convicted fraud, the most open, impudent, and mischievous ever attempted in our history. What more shameful scene could be magiued than an old man, high in pla^e, begging a dying man to support a huge lie, a wholesale fraud?—Ind. Jour.

SnciDic.—Coroner Moffit held r.n inquest yesterday morning on the body of Laura J. Greene, an unmarried female, at the house of Mrs. Mary Harrison on Massachusetts Avenue It appears from the evidence that the deceased was employed occasionally to do housework for families, and when not employed made the house of Mrs. Morrison her home. She has relatives lesiding at Middletown, Ohio, but none in this city. On Saturday afternoon she purchased five cents worth of strychnine at Moffalt.'s drug store. In the evening she took a ride in a buggy with John A. Berlin, a married man, and returned home about 10 o'clock. W bile riding she exhibited a portemounaie which she told Berlin contained a paper of which he must he careful, saying in answer to a question, that it contained poi-on. She stated that she had been in better circumstances, and disliked working in people's kitchens.

Previous to the ride on Saturday evonine -he had told Berlin of her intention to poison ^er.self, but he supposed she wa jesting, and on Saturday evening insisted on taking the poison from her, but tailed to get it.

The deceased told Mrs. Morrison that she had taken the poison before coming into the bouse on Saturday evening—swallowing the paper from the portemonnaie, with its contents.

Mrs. Morrison was called to the deceased about one o'clock yesterday morning. Several gentlemen residing in the neighborhood came in shortly after. Mr. I. I. Kcely called in Dr. Funkhouser. The deceased admitted to Dr. F. that sho had taken strychnine, complained of erijpps all over the body, and desired ice water.— The deceased was in spasms from the time the witnesses before the coroner's jury entered her room between one and two, until a few minutes before three o'clock, when sho died. Dr. Funkhouser has no doubt of strychnine being the cause of her death.

Thejnry returned a verdict in accordance with the above recited fflfcs—attaching no blame to any one.

Among the effects of the deceased w^re some scraps of poetry, snatches of love songs, and eleven daguerreotypes—nine ot them pictures of men—some of which were readily recognized as residents of this city and vicinity. Sho had resided here about eiirht months.—Ind. Jour.

Dr. Roback's 1 heory and Practice. It would seem that Dr. Roback's "Scandinavian Remedies" have taken the highest rank among the standard medicines of tho day. His theory is, that in whatever organ disease may show itself, its roots are in the blood. Hence his famous Swedish curative, the Blood Purifier and the Blood Pills are designed to act specifically upon the sanguineus fluid. One thing cannot be disputed, they produce most salutary effects even in apparently hopeless cases. Individuals who have suffered for years from dyspepsia, scrofula, eruptions of the skin, bronchitis, asthma, general prostration, liver complaint, rheumatism, neuralgia, and many other distressing maladies, report themselves, over their own signatures, as radically cured by a course of these Remedies. The claims of Dr. Roback's advertisements are therefore supported by competent proof. See Advertisement.

Mr. C. P. Plummcr—Dear Sir: I cannot refrain from giving you this slight regard of the opinion I have of your valuable medicine.

I did so I am rejoiced that I can testify to its great effects. After using tha third bottle I was entirely well, and am now attending to my business. X' C. E. LKAVEHIXO.
