Vernon Umpire and t lie Douglas Platform. On the 3d instant, we took occasion to call attention to the fact, that the Douglas men were secretly circulating,as an electioneering document, in Posey county, an ExIra from the office of the Mt. Vernon Umpire (a professed Bell and Everett paper), which Extra contained that which purported to be the Platforms of the various political parties. These platforms were accompanied by some editorial remarks " explanatory " of the platforms, which remarks were particularly laudatory of the Douglas platform over the others. We charged in our editorial that this Extra with its garbled contents was printed for " a consideration." The Umpire has replied to our article, and seems grievously sore over our exposure of the unfair trick of its manager in issuing the Extra in the manner he did. The Umpire hopes, indeed, that we " will revoke what we have said about it and its Extra." Now we do not feel inclined to do the Umpire the least injustice; but really we must persist in our censures on that paper for its conduct in the matter under consideration the more especially since we have read its lame and overdone defense. We present to the public some of the poi n ts of the said defense, in order that they may j" je fT themselves of the unfair and disreputable conduct of the Umpire iu this matter; and so they may say whether, if there was any doubt at first of a wilful design ;o give Douglas an undue advantage, the defense of the Umpire has not removed that doubt. The defense is lengthy. We cannot copy it entire, but give all that is essential iu the controversy : : ' The Journal charges us with being willing to issue an extra for the benefit of Douglas for a consideration. It is true, we did issue the Extra just as we would print any other circular when paid for so doing. We deny the charge that we issued it as a secret, , or even a public electioneering agent for - Mr. Douglas. But we make the statement, ' boldly, for the benefit of the Journal and all 1 others interested we insert it as an advertisement that we will execute all kinds of circulars and electioneering documents for : all parties be they Democratic, Republican or Union documents we will print for all f on the most liberal terms possible. We so- . licit printing of this kind." " ', "The Journal charges the Extra with 1 garbling the Platforms. It did not pretend ' to give any thing except the slavery clause, L and all that was essential to an understandf ing of this was presented. The resolution J of which it speaks was not omitted through . any intention of the writer; but as it was not in the Cincinnati Code, from which the J said clause was taken, and as the object was I not to make the quotations too long, it happened not to be inserted. Moreover the resJ olution of which the Journal speaks in no - way invalidates or alters the slavery clause, as contained in the Cincinnati Code." a

The Umpire, like all apologists in a bad ' we have on good Democratic authority : cause, proves entirely too much ; it runs on i that of U. S. Senator Fitch. These cireumin its garrulous way, and says all we could stances, together with the nomination of a wish it to say in order to see it entangled Slave Code candidate for Vice President, and

1 in absurdities. The first paragraph that we ( copy from its defense gives all the excuse necessary, if, as stated in that paragraph, , the Extra had been printed as a typograph. cal job for other parties. If the Umpire ofm ice bad been employed by the Douglas men :.rto print a certain number of copies, to be f, printed and banded over to them for their 8 own purposes, there would have been nothf ing very dishonorable about the transaction; but the case is different The editor of that

j paper waives this plea by defending the Douglas platform od its merits. Now read the second paragraph copied by us, and note the shameless justification there I pi ten for garbling the Douglas platform.

The resolution offered by tVickliffe at Balti more, for the purpose of catching votes in Louisiana, " happened not to be inserted,'" as it would "make the quotations too long ! " As well leave out of the play of "Hamlet," the part of Hamlet. " All that was essenuo way invalidates the slavery clause, as contained in the Cincinnati Code." This piling on of one excuse after anothen without regard to iheir agreement with each other, reminds us of the defense offered in the well-known " kettle case." " In , the first place," says the defendant's counsel, " the kettle was cracked when my client borrowed it. In the second place, it was whole when he returned it. And in . the third place, my client never borrowed the j kettle. These three propositions we espect to establish !" Well, Mr. Abbott, if you really mean ; what you 683-, and have not sufficient dis- ' cernment to perceive a radical difference aye, a flat contradiction between the Cincinnati Platform according to its Northern interpretation, and the Wickliffe resolution, all we have to say is, you are not fit to edit a political newspaper. You have gotten yourself in a dilemma and can choose either horn. 1, You are not competent to perceive the difference between two contradictory paragraphs; or, 2, You wilfully garbled and misrepresented the Douglas platform for pay, and now justify your unfair and raercenary action. There is no escape for you from impalement on one of these " horns." If yon cannot perceive any difference between the two paragraphs en.bodying the slavery clause of the Cinciucati platform with its popular interpretation, and the Wickliffe doctrine, you had belter quit talking about politics in your paper. If you still justify what you have said and done in the matter under consideration, for the sake of consistency and fairness mak at once of the Umpire a thimble-rigging Douglas paper, and de not pretend friendship for Bell and Everett, or impartiality towards other candidates. v e assert that the resolution adopted at Baltimore in order to catch Louisiana votes, gives the lie direct to the slavery clause in the Cincinnati Platform, as interpreted by Douglas and his followers in the North. For proof of this assertion, we give the slavery clause aforesaid, and the Wickliffe resolution : SLAVERY CLAISE FP.'M TUB CINCINNATI PLATFOIiM. " Resolved, That claiming fellowshin w ith and desiring the co-operation of all who regard the preservation of the Union, under the Constitution, as the paramount issue, and repudiating all sectional parties and platforms concerning domestic slavery, which seek to embroil the States and incite to treason and armed resistance to law in the Territories, and whose avowed purposes, if consummated, must end in civil war and disunion; the American Democracy recognize and adopt the principles contained in the organic laws establishing the Territories of Nebraska and Kansas as embodying the only sound and safe solution of the slavery question, upon which the great national idea of the people of this whole country can repose in its determined con- ; servatiou 01 the Union non-interrerence by Congress with slavery in the Territories or in the District of Columbia." SUPPLEMENTARY RESOLUTION ADOPTED AT BALTIMORE. " Resolved, That it is in accordance with the Cincinnati Platform, that during the existence of Territorial Governments, the measure of restriction, whatever it may be, imposed by the Federal Constitution on the power of the Territorial Legislature over the subject of the domestic relations, as the same ' has been or siall hereafter be decided by the Supreme Court of the United Stales, should be respected by all good citizens, and en- ; forced with promptness and fidelity by every : branch of the General Government." "The principles contained in the organic 1 laws establishing the territories of Nebraska ;' and Kansas " require, as Douglas and his partizans contend, " that the people of each . State acd Territory should be left perfectly free to form and regulate their domestic institutions in their own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United States." Iu their arguments before the Northern people, they endeavor to produce the impression that the people of each territory, under the Cincinnati Platform, are entirely unrestricted in their control over their domestic institutions (including slavery ), and are above and beyond any human power. This, we say, is the interpretation given to the Cincinnati ' Platform by Douglas and his adherents while electioneering in the North before the people for office. This is the spirit of all , their harangues it was in 1854, I8061 1858, is now, and has been between times. ; Yet notwithstanding these professions, tor the purpose of catching votes in Louisiana, they submit to the introduction into their platform for I860 of a resolution which com- ' pletely prevents the possibility of any exercise of " popular sovereignty " by the people of the territories, in case the Douglas policy should prevail. And, further, a re- ! solution was offered in the Douglas National J Convention endorsing Douglas's doctrine ! of an inherent sovereigu right in the squatters of a territory, and it was voted down with scarcely the shadow of support. This 1 then another when that one declined, shows the disregard of Douglas for " popular sovereignty." In view of all these considerations, which the editor of the Umpire must have known from the first, we nsk him whether, as a man of candor and honor, lie can look any person iu the face aud say that the supplementary resolution we have copied which he must admit now forms an essentia part t at the Douglas platform "in no way in-

validates or alters the slavery clause, as cont lined iu the Cincinnati Code? " We also ask Mr. Abbott in conclusion, suppose it be true, us claimed by the slavery extcnsionists, that the Supreme Court has decided that the Constitution carries slavery into all the Territories beyond the control of Congress, the Territorial Legislatures, or any other human power or suppose the Court should decide so hereafter (us it is generally admitted it will) if it has not already done so is the Squatter Sovereignty, claimed by Douglas as being his peculiar property, not totally destroyed dad of no avail to the people of the territories, if the Douglas doctrine should prevail ?

Wheat and Corn Crops. We present the following from the Nashville Banner of Saturday, as an indication of the prevailing excitement at the South regarding the supply of food, without stopping to examine the figures and conclusions of our contemporary. There will be much suffering at the South, unquestionably, consequent upon the failure of the crops ; but the Western States are, fortunately, in a position to furnish full supplies of the necessaries of life. There will be no famine, and there sheuld be no famine prices. Cin. Gaz. l: It is a settled fact the corn and wheat crops of the South are failures, and that the cotton States will have to be purchasers of corn from the more fortunate Northern and Western divisions of the Union. Our people are interested upon this subject as one of much greater importance than the political divisions of the North and South, and as if to rebuke the minds and restrict the spirits which have dared to whisper ' secession from the North,' an Almighty Power has made the Southern divisions of the country as dependent upon the North for food as the North has been on the South for cotton. Two such failures as the South experiences this year in succession would ruin her. Happily for the South, the cotton never entirely fails, and in an augmented crop of (it is estimated) 4,500,000 bales, she will find the means to purchase her food. For once "King Cotton" must abdicate his commercial throne, content to make one of a trimuvirate that henceforth rules the world. That which would have been deemed impossible a few years since has now actually occurred, and Georgia, .Mississippi and other States are importing their food from Illinois and Indiana. During last season Missouri supplied this demand, but she will be unable thio year, tor her crops have in a great measure failed, while the demand, then light, is now almost incalculable. The completeness of the failure in the South it is hard to contemplate. The tone of every exchange is desponding ana almost despairing. The Montgomery (Ala.) Mail, of a late date, says : j' We are satisfied, from reliable sources, the crop of Eastern Alabama and Western Georgia will fall far short of the needs of home consumers, and if there should not be u heavy crop in South Alabama, backed by low prices in the West, there cannot but be immense suffering for the 'staff of life.'' And this demand from the South is made simultaneously with a similar call from Europe. We notice in our Western exchanges several items in regard to puichases made by English firms, of houses in the very interior of the States of Illinois and Indiana, at high rates. A lot of 2,000 bu. wheat was lately purchased at Newcastle in Indiana by a Liverpool firm at Si 0"i. In New York red Western is selling nt $1 2'2Y1 25, while Western white brought 1 3o(iiy :17, and Kentucky white sold at 1 42. The exports from New York have been very large since the new crop was harvested. For the week ending Saturday, July 28th. the exports from New York to points in Great Britian amounted to 385,000 busheU of wheat, 17,000 bushels of corn, and 6,500 brls of Hour. Many startling indications of the absolute want felt in Europe come to us daily. Bread riots have occurred at Bologna and in the North of Italy. Paddingtou Green, Loudon, was lately the scene of a great open air meeting of laboring men, demanding a reduction in the price, and a fuller supply of the necessaries of life. Meetings of a similar character have been held at Birmingham aud Sheffield, at which the persous present pledged themselves to abstain during the month of July from beef aud pork, mutton, lamb and veal. "And what product has the North with which to supply this increase demand '.' The States which raise a surplus of wheat aud export it, are Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin, in all eleven Slates, which produced, in 1850, an average year, 85,500,000 bushels, valued at about $90,000,000. But it is said that this year the product will far exceed this. Illinois, which raised 0,414,575 bushels of wheat in 1850, at an average of 11 bushels to the acre, will produce this year not less than 13,000,000 bushels. An intelligent farmer, writing to a Chicago exchange from the Southern portion of Illinois, says of the wheat and corn crops: ' If you intend to store the grain that is coming to your city this fall, you must roof Chicago all over and make one grand store house of it.' Indiana in 1850 produced 6,214,458 bushels. This year it will exceed 9,000,000. The crop of Ohio is estimated at 25,000,000 bushel. New York at 20,000,000, Virginia at 15,000,000, aud the other States named above have increased in like proportion. It is estimated that these eleven States will produce 125,000,000 bushels against 85,500,000 in 1850, and about 110,000,000 in 1859. This sum of 125,000,000, at the prices paid in St. Louis and Chicago, the home markets fur the crop, will be worth $130,000,000. ' The corn crop of the West will surpass, it is said, any that has been harvested any year during the last decade. In 1850 Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee, and Virginia, the corn exporting States, raised 352,000,000 bushels, which was valued at about SI 76,000,000. The value of the product of the entire States for the same year was $296,035,552. Thus it will be seen that the seven States named raised very nearly two-thirds of the entire crop of the Union. But the above figures fall far short of giving the amount raised in I860. Instead of raising 57,500,000 bushels, as in 1850, at an average of 29 bushels to the acre, Illinois will this year produce 100,000,000 bushels at an average of nearly 50 bushels per acre. Indiana and Ohio "will raise 90,000,000 each. The crop of Kentucky will be fully 60,000,000, while Tennessee, Virginia, and all others named, except Missouri, will produce a similarly augmented amount. The product of Indian corn for I860 in the exporting States will amount to fully 500,000,000, valued at $250,000,000, a sum nearly equal to the value of the crop of the whole Union iu 1850. Well may the West be called the granary of the world." "Will high prices rule for these staples? Tl; it we are compelled leave to our readers to aigue iMtai time tj ilei; p. In case of a war in Europe, no 1' '. KSM'b would be the case, aud such a war vouhi be ruinous to the South Without a war to stimulate prices we do uot think thut the cry raised by England and the demand by the South

need frighten those who will have to purchase. Such a crop has not been known for years As if provideutially, a superabundant harvest has blessed the North and the We-t, laid supplies from those quarters are not likely to be scanty or dear, and there is no nied of those fearful and rather ridiculous forebodings of famine we see promulgated in same papers. Hut no doubt speculators will handle tb-- articlesestensirely this season, and perhaps to the advancement of prices enormously. With the small stock of wheat and corn on band here, we imagine Nashville men will find money ia these articles."

At the 8outh-Wcstern Indiana District Fair, held here October, 1869, there were but two premiumsofferod foroookingstoves one for the best wood cosking stove, and otss for tho be't coal cooking stove. Tho Economist took the FIRST PREMIUM FOR THE BEST - OOKIXG STOVE FOKWOOD. R.sdker, Kinsman A Co took tho first premium for their cooking stove for coal. No other premiums were offered. The large silver medal was awarded to the Economist at the New York tttate Fair ; and the first preminin at the United stateFair held at Chicaga. and twelve other State and County Fairs in 1- '. Iu no branch of mechanical art has there laien a more apparent advance than in tne manufacture ot stoves. It is but a few years sinoe the very name was a novelty, representing a huge, shapeless strurture, almost as devoid of use as ornament. These bavegradually given plaoe to patterns of grace and utility ; until the varieties our markets now preseut bare almost exhausted the vocabulary of names ; and the different phase tbe metal is made to assume, would astonish old Vulcan himself. In style and finish, tho improvement has 1 .e n real, leaving nothing to be desired on that point, but the severe competition in price, to which they have been subjected, has deprived them of many of the more substantial Qualities dasirable. This seems inore especially to have been the case In reference to cook stoves an article ot domestic economy that hasmoro todo with scolding wives and crotchety servants than most people Imagine. The public have loug sought an improvement in this article, aud we believe are ready to pay any reasonable price for a cooking stove, if it only possesses tho merits ot size, weight, convenience, durability, economy, aud perfection of manufacture. These qualities seem to be possessed most fully in the Economist a new stove, perfected and brought out tbe past season, by Messrs. Treadwell, Perry A Norton, of Albany. We heard so much of this stove, and it looked so much like a stove intended for use, that we concluded to try them, and the result of tbe experiment couviuces us tl at the proprietor, iu thoir determination to make the best stove in the toorld, have succeeded. We regard the Economist as possessing all the merits above enumerated as tho great stove of the day far in ad- - Q - ..r ........ 1.. ,e . ii . f 11 ' 1 ' 1 u,.uiup, ' . . ran.. ,...-. , 11 l 11 e iiuQ ui its name in durability and the use of fuel, affiotirf tbe many conveniences attached to it, may J pntinned a largo oven, with hooks arranged, uspeudiug moats while roasting.

There never has Jbsen, to our know ledge, auy broiling fixture that tsCa really satisfactory in its eperation. The proprietors of this stove have been conducting a series off experiments upon broiling, eliciting some valuabli facts, and resulting In the invention of a gridiron adapted to this stove, which has seen secured I'.y letters patent, aud is one of the most admirable t Uings of the kind we ever saw broiling without suioke, and keeping the coals in a constant glow. We are always ghvl to do justice to mechanical in:rovements, and especially such as contribute so largely to the general good, as the one abovo mentioned.
