KondAJ Morning, Aagiut 12tM, 1862

It waald teem that the copper-John •onitea really expected to accomplish lomething at the late election, or at leaat were not prepared for the .tunning defeat which they experienced. The J«emph» Appeal, the Avalanche and other rebel sheet! are loud and piteous in their cries of rage and anguish. That some one is to blame for their disaster is a point on wbich they are all agreed, but who the guilty man or party may be is a question which cannot be answered in the light thrown upon the subject by the opposition press of Tennessee, for no two papers make the same charges. Some charge all upon the negroes, others upon "Brownlow's militia," while others again say their own inen did not turn out. One journal, after pouring its viuls of wrath upon the negro, addresses its wail of lam entationto President Johnson in tba following pathetic strain: "Ob, Mr. President I the same party that mtinacled the great Stato prisoner at Fortress Monroe has not. only deposed you, but has laid you flat on, your bac^ and placed a eafc in your mouth affd you in the name of our forefathers, in the name of departed liberty, in the name ot a once honored Constitution, and in the name of a suffering humanity, break your chains, reassert your place, drive out the usurper, re-eat&blish States, break down despotism, ancUbe a worthy successor of Washington and Jackson."

This mad dog foaming at the mouth because its party was fairly beaten at the polls is if possible, more ridiculous than infamous.

Franchise in England.

It was feared by sornfi that the House of Lords would insist upon some amend' ments to the Reform bill, especially upon raising the standard of pecuniary quali fleatlon for voting but this apprehen sion was happily disappointed. The bill passed by the Peors, on the night of the (Jth, was precisely as it came to them from the Commons. The following synopsir given by the correspondent of the New York TVibune, in his letter of two weeks ago, defines the outlines and essential de' tails of the new Franchise law of England "It gives a vote to every male house-, holder who personally pays his rates, and it makes any othorthan personal payment Illegal. It enfranchises every male lodger of full age who has occupied one year any portion of a house whose yearly value unfurnished, is £12. It enfranchises every male householder, in counties, who pays £12 annually as rent It enfranchises the graduates of London University, and gives that institution one member it en franchises the full -aged residents cf Oxford and Cambridge Universites, who will vote in the borough elections of those places^ It provides for tho notification to all of whose rates are tftie that carrying voters to tho palls shall not be legal in boroughs, with the exception of five large ones that members appointed to office need not return to their constituents for re-election. The bill protects all existing franchises. Tho re-distribution part of it disposer of l'orty-tlv6 seats, which were ob tained by flis&auchislng four boroughs convicted of gross irauds, and taking one •nomber from all boroughs of less than 10,000 population. Birmingham, Liver pool, Manchester and Leeds are each to have three members. The boroughs of Hartlepool, Middlesborough, Darlington, Dewsbury, Stnleybridge, Wednesbury, Gravesend and Stockton are to have now, for the first time, one apiece. Salford and Mertbyr Tydvil are to bavo two instead of one. Several suburbs of London are combined under 'Cholesea,' and return a member, and a new borough, 'Hacknew, is to be separated from the Tower Hamlets. The University of London is to have a member. Twety-fivs members are distributed among tho counties."

This new law makes the power of the common people absolute. If the aristocracy see fit to mtiko a plubian and patrician issue, the result will be the complete overthrow of feudal despotism and robbery. TLoro is nothing more-certain than this.

Now that the long ponding reform campaign has closed, for tho present at loast, it is evident to any person who has watched its progress that tho result reached in tho House of Lords on the Gth instant was a victory of American ideas over British prejudices. The specinl apprehension of the conservatives was that tho ancient realm, nlwajU true to monarchy, even in the days of tho Protectoratef w«8"drifWirg -toward Republicanism. One of them, either-Mr. Lowe or Lord Cranborne, predicted that tho Upper House of Parliament would yet be an olective instead .of an hereditary butdy and thai the Premier would be chosen by the poopto*Aitd" royalty-itself would nut long survive tho innovation. Wu are not at al! disposed to question the correctness of ihe prediction, nor to deplore the prospect of its fulttlhnent. It is to be hoped tbat Americanism, as it is called, will take possession of England as effectually as the Dutch took Holland. The seed of this glorious tree of American liberty was brought to this country from England.— It first took root at Uunnemede when King John grantod the Great Charter, and all the liberty that has blessed either that country or this dates back to a common origin. If both uations should eventually unite in giving it tho same iway in tho affairs of Government, that would be no cause of surprise, and certainty none of regret.

If the process of British disenthrallment should now be American iu its rapidity it would not be at all strange, for the masses have now for the typst lime got the reins of Government into their own hands.

Capital of Nebraska.

A committee, appointed by the Legis. lature of Nebraska, has selected a site for the permanent capital of that new State. The Territorial buildings are at Omaha, but that city being on the extreme eastern border, could not of course hope to retain the advantages of a State capital. The commission, however, have made a selection for a site which has given rise to bitter expressions of dissatisfaction. It is located in the town of Laucaster, Lancaster county, and tho county is the second one westward from Missouri river. The name of the new capital is to be Lincoln, a very good name. It is 45 miles from the east line of the State, 300 miles from the west line, 55 miles from the south lino, and 150 miles from the north line. It is 55 miles from Omaha, 45 from Nebraska City, and 45 from Plattsmouth. It baa no railroad nor river communication, and its inhabitants are said to number less than forty.

After

A 1tacc la a Thunder-Storm Dark. HWe doubt if there is on record a more perilous race than one in which the late Hiram Woodruff bore a conspicuous part and now appears as tho narrator. We find the account in a lalo nurubor of Wilkes' Spirit of the Times: "In 1843 Dutchman was brought to New York again and placed in my charge Our first race that season, and it was the lost season the old horse trotted on the turf, was against Americus and Lady Suffolk, two mile heats in harness, over the Beacon Course. Bryant drove the Lady, Spicer, Americus, and I' Dutchman. Dutchman won the first heat, Americus the second, and Dutchman tho third.Lady Suffolk wus third in all the heats. In a week'or ten days thereafter, we went three mile-beats hi harness, over tbfe Beacon Course, and it was a tremendous race of four he&ts. Tbeffast was won by Duchman. The second was stoutly cons tested, but Atneriqus won it. The third heat was very hotly contested, and resulted in a dead beat between tbo old horse and Americus. Lady Suffolk was now,ruled out for not winning a heat in three, and thg hatting wi.a heavyv Dutchman having the call. The long summer day had drawn rapidly to a close. At the same time the heavens were overcast, and with fading gleams of dim, yellow light the sun sank into great banks of clouds. They mounted higher and higher, and seemed to lie like a load upon the weary earth. The heat was intense, and not breath of air was stirring to break the ominous repose. With the last flicker of day, the swift scud began to 83' overhead, and the solid-seeming clouds to tower up and come on like moving mountains. It was dark when wo got into our sulkies, and, soon alter the start, the storm burst upon us with a fury that I have never since seen equalled. The wind blew hurricane and the pelting- rain fell in torrents, as though the sluices of the skies had opened all at once.

Nothing could have overpowered the mighty rash of the wind and the furious 6plash of the rain but the dread, tremendous rattlo of tho thunder. It seemed to be discharged right over our heads and only a few yards abovous. Nothin could have penetrated the thick, profoun gloom of that derknes3 but the painful blue blaze of thb forked lightning. I could not see, in the short intervals between the flashes, the faintest trace of the horse before me, and then, in the twinkling of an eye, as though tho darkness was torn away like a veil by the hands of the Almighty, the whole couiso, the surrounding country, to tho minutest and most distant thing, would be revealed.— The spires of the churches and houses of Nowark, eight miles off, we could soe more plainly than in broad daylight, and we noticed that, as tho horse faced the howling elements, their ears lay back flat upon their nccks. Between these flashes of piercing, all pervading light and the succeoding claps of thunder, the suspense and 9train upon the mind was terrible^-— Wo know that it was coming so as to shake tho very pillars of tho earth wo rode on, and until it had rattled over our heads we were silent. Then in the blank darkness, as we went oft side by "side, we would exchange cautions. Neither could soe the other, nor bear the wheels nor the stride of the horses, by reason of the wind and rain. "Look out, Hiram," Spicer would say, "or we shall be into each other." "A few strides further on and I would sing out, "take care, George, you must be close to me." "Now, the noise of the wheels and the tramp of horses could not be heard in the roar ot the wind and the patter of the rain, and yet our voices could be, and were. For a mile and a half, in the very crater, as it were, of this volcanic war of the skeyey elements,we went side by side. Thon Dutchman lost ground. The track was clayey, and he having on flat shoes begun to slip and slide at evory stride.— Americus gradually drew away from him, and when I reached the stand at tho end of the socond mile, I stopped. havo seen great many summer storms 11 my time, and bavo been out in not a fow of thorn, but of all that 1 remember none quito equalled in terrific lury and awful grandeur that which burst over tho Beacon Course just as we began that heat. Spicer says tha samo."

FROGS.

ANew Trade Springing up In oiricago Frogs Legs are Food—UrcatDc maud for Them —Uoir to Cook Them —How they Catcli Them—Ktc.

From the Chicago llcpubUcttu.

Chicago eats yearly one hundred th sand pairs of frogs's legs in other words, one hundred thousand Irogs die annually for our good. They enter life as tad pole, arid depart from it fried in crumbs.

The frogs aro chiefly supplied to this city by a Mr. Buck, who is a German living about two miles south of Hyde Park. He deVotes his whole tiftie to killing frogs finding that it pays him well. He and his nssis tail rise early in tho morning and go to tho sloughs lying southward, carrying with them long sticks. Dressed in high boots and old clothes, they walk through and along the slough', looking for frogs. When one is seen, it is struck on tho aead with along stick, then the fro* dies and bis hind legs are cut off and skinned and put in a basket. To kill them great care and skill are required, as they are cautious and cunning. As soon as they bear footsteps, they will jump from the,bank or grass into the water in a few minutes the queer shaped head will rise just above the surface of the water and peer cautiously around to see who's there. That is the moment for killing it, and it must be done very quickly. Sometimes they are caught out of the water, not of-ten'now-a-days.

When, however, the day's hunting has not been very successful, and Mr. Buck has not killed as many as he has orders for, he goes out again at night. He takes with him a lantern and a pole with a piece of red cloth attached to it. The light of the lantorn is thrown on the water, and the rod piece of cloth on the pole is cast in where it shines. The frogs are attracted by the light, and go to the spot they see the red cloth, are curious, and bite it. Their teeth become entangled in it, and they are drawn out of the water. This is the easiest way of catching the frogs, but it is less practiced because it has to be done in the night time.

When Mr. Buck first began to kill them it was very easy work, for they did not seem to fear him but that is all over now, and tho frogs have loot all their faith in man. They see that men only seek after them to «ut their hind legs, and they cast them aside as they do women, after having won their love. So they aro shy of Mr. Buck, and have to be battered on the head before they will come near to him.

Mr. Buck and his assistants pass the day in thus hunting for frogs, and return home about six o'clock. The lags are carefully put away in a cool place, and eaten by us for dinner and supper.

Early one morning Mr. Buck procured a number of frog eggs and placed them in a good pool made for the purpose. In a

little while tbe place was filled fjfjth poles, and they grew up in~the'cour time to be little frogs. The ground, how ever, around tha pool was maoihe^amt the heavy rains filled it with water Most of the frogs then escaped from tbe pool, and went off to see the woridL Soma of remaining ones have been killed and brought to market here, w! been left, so that there may W ma: there next year. It is probable that a larger and bettor pool may be made, and one from which the frogs will not care to escape, so that next year Mr. Buck can quietly gather in his daily supply of frogs without wandering off for them.

It is hard work catching them in "winter as the ice on the slough's become 350 very thick, and the frogs ^pa't hate ti chance to put fheir heads out* of ffie water. If be can get a sufficient number of them before winter seta in, it is likely that he will continue to supply tbe market here during the cold weather. If so, they will be kept in conservatories^ as In Ger many. These conservatories art/ large holes in the ground, and at four -or lite feel deep. The frogs are put in there,' and the mouthof- the hoW iscovered with a board and straw. Whenever- any of them are wanted the hoard is removed and they aro taken out.

Not only docs Mr. Brtrk caftsjiVfrog^ himself, but he very often Infe them brought to him by persons living several miles away. They are:~bmtght by him, and in turn sold agajiti^ H^ggonopoiizes the whole trade.

So great is tbe 1 eman'd* fo:tBat they are always sold by hirri without-the least trouble. Owing, however, tV-the limited supply, they are sold almost exclusively to restaurants. Now" and then private families send down to-Mr. .Buck's place and buy some, but it is too-fftr outof the way to do it often. That is one reason why husbands dine every now and then at the restaurants—they jean get frogs there. It is to be hoped that nest year Mr. Buck will be able to bring enough in so that private families can be supplied.— They aro sold by him at a very reasonable rate—only twelve or fifteen cents a dozen he asks.

A Reminiscence of General Iee. From the Quincy Whig. 7 "I think it was in the winter or spring of 1834-5, one evening, just at nightfall Lieutenant Lee, then on duty at the mili tary post at Montrose, Iowa, stepped into Mr. Browning's law office in Quincy. Milton D. Browning and the writer ware in tbe office. Lieutenant Lee introduced himself to us, saying he wa?. an officer of the-army, stationed above as orrthe river, at the head of the rapids. Ha jqquifeel for an acquaintance residing hero, "Who was then absent, seemed disappointed at the absence, and ended by.askipg if there was no public amusement of any 1cindg-~ ing on iu (juincy, that night. We tdld him there was to be a show at the old log court Honse, but wo thought it would bo a poor thing. Lee said anything would do to break the monotony of frontier life We all went to the show of 'dissolving scenes and Punch and Judy,' acid luuntla crowded house. The house wps dimly lighted with tallow candles, especially du'r ring the exhibition of the dissolving acehef but when Punch and Judy, and, if you will excuse me, His Maje3tv the Devil were brought forward, a stoager light was seme how produced, and the audience, could see each other pretty well. Lee now became the observed of all observers He was a fine looking young man, in mil itary dro9s, and was the first ever seen in Quincy, wearing tbe moustachc, orab some ot' tho people afterwards called it, muso'ottoucli-it.' He soon.a'ltracted more notice than tho show a good many curious remarks were made by some of tho audieoco—they wanted to know what oaUr 'oirth ''.that thing was under his- no«o, and oheold hard case exclaimed' Ol n.kt- ni away—he will scare the wimmiato death Leo heard all they said, but did not move a muscle of his jaw, and seemed amused both ut tho people and tho show. "Wheii the exhibition wa3 over he returned with us to the office, but as we were bachelors, and slept on cots, wo could not offer, him a bed, and be went t? the.'Land Pffice Hotel,' to fight the bed bugs, and we saw hj.ni no more, though this was not the only time no evur visited Quincy. This Lieutenant Lee was none other than he who became the great rebel General Lee of thedefunct Southern Confederacy.'
