Liquor Eloquence. Paul Denton, a Methodist preacher in Texas, advertised a barbecue, with b tter liquor than usually furnished.

When the people here assembled, a desperado in the crowd cried out: ! " Mr. Paul Denton, your reverence ! has lied. You promised us not only a good barbecue, but better liquor. Where is the liquor?" " There,'1 answered the missionary, in tones of thunder, and, pointing his fiDgers at the matchless double spring gushing up in two strong columns, with a sound like a shout of joy, from the bosom earth. " There," he repeated, with a look terrible as lightning (while his enemy actually trembled on his feet) " there is the liquor which God, the Eternal, brews for his children! " Not in the simmering still, over smoky fires, cooked with the prisonous gasses, and surrounded with the stench of sickening odors and rank corruption, doth your Father in Heaven prepare the precious esseuce of life, the pure cold water, but in the green clade and Srassy dell, where the red aeer wallers, and the child loves to play there valleys, where the rills sing; and high upon the tall mountuin tops, where the storm clouds brood, and the thunder clouds crash, and away far out on the wide, wide sea, where hurricance howls music, and th? big waves roar the chorus, sweeping the march of (rod there he brews it, that beverage of life health-giving water! " And everywhere it is a thing of beauty, gleaming in the dew-drops, singing in the summer rain, shining in the ice-gem, till the trees all seem turned to living jewels, spreading a golden veil over the setting sub, or a white gauze around the midnight moon, sporting in the cataract, sleeping in the glazier, dancing in the hail shower, folding its snow curtain softly about the wintry world ; and weaving the manycolored iris, that seraph's zone of the sky, whose warp is rain-' drops of earth, whose woof is the sunbeam of heaven, all checked over with celestial flowers by the mystic hand of refraction. Still always it is beautiful that blessed life water! No poison bubbles on its brink, no madness or murder; no blood stains its liquid glass; pale widows and starving orphans find no tears in its depths, no drunkard s shrieking ghost from the grave cursing in words of eternal despair. Speak out, my friends! would you exchange it for the demon'a drink, alcohol? " A shout like the roar of a tempest answered "No! " The Main Issues. Keep in view the main issues of this campaign. Everything else is subordinate to them. The peace anCtgqod order of society, and the perpettfation of our Government, depends upon their establishment by the votes of the people. They are expressed in this form: The restoration of the Union on terms of equality to all the people. The admission of the Southern people to all their former rights in the Government, when they shall have j agreed to put in the National Consti tution guarantees that they will keep the peace and obey the laws. This is the only possible way to settle up the war accounts with safety. - The North paid three or four billions of dollais, and nearly a half million of men's lives not to speak of limbs for peace and Union. Now let us secure what we were forced to fight for. If we don't, we shall have to fight again as soon as the rebels get back to their old places of power. What precious fools the Northern people would be, to be sure, to fight four years, spend a half million of brave lives and billions of money, to yield up everything they fought for upon the demand of the enemy, who we have just conquered into submission. All we ask is, that they shall agree to be our equals. We demand that, and will have it. Backed by the Copperheads, they demand to be continued as the superiors of the Northern people. Will the soldiers and the people of the North consent? We think not. Dayton Journal. Our Platform. Following is the platform of the Union party for the present political campaign, being the joint Resolution passed by Congress, proposing Amendment to the Constitution : THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States, and of the States wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any laws which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States, nor shall any State deprive any person within its jurisdiction of the equal protection of the laws. Sec. 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to respective numbers, counting the whole number of per sons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed; but whenever the right to vote at any election for Electors of President and Vice-President, and for United States Representatives in Congress, executive and judicial officers, or the members of the Legislatures thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of -such State, being twenty-one years of age and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crimes, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male

citizens twenty-one years of age in such State. Sec. 3. No person shall 'be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President or Vice President-, or hold an office, civil or military under the United States, or under any State, who having previously taken an oath as member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State Legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof; but Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each house remove such disability. Sec. 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for service in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States, or any State shall assume or pay any debt or

obligation incurred in aid ot insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.

A. M. McGRIFF, Clerk. City Clerk's Office, Sept. 20, I860. sep'JO dM Greene's Patent Cylinder CIDER MILL, For Crushing and Expressing the Juice from Apples, Grapes, and other Fruit, at one and the same operation. TIIE SITRSCRIBER HAS IX VENTed and patented a Machine for crushing and expressing the juice from Apples and other fruit at a single operation, thereby dispensing with screws, levers, presses, and other cumbersome machinery, and saving all the time and labor necessary to separate the juices from the fruit by the old process. This important result is attained by a novel arrangement of crushing and pressing cylinders together in one frame, entirely unlike any Machine ever heretofore constructed for such a purpose, and which must eventually supersede and do away with all known processes for extracting juices from fruit. The subscriber claims, and is ready to demonstrate, that the following advantages are gained over all other Machines: 1st. With the same amount of power, three times the quantity of Cider or Wine can be made in a day than can be made by any other Machine. 2d. That trom 25 to 40 per cent, more Cider or Wine can be extracted from the same amount of fruit. 3d. That it is more compact and simple in its operation, stronger and less liable to get out of order; is adapted to band or other powers ; is portable, and can be transported readily from place to place; can be driven by any kind of power, and can be attached to any machinery. 4th. It is cheaper in proportion to its capacity. 5th. It is stronger, being constructed enlrely of iron. 6th. In being adapted for expressing juices from all kinds of fruit, including Apples, Grapes. Rhubarb, or Wine Plant, Currants, and Berries of all kind. 7th. ThatHt is superior to any Root Cutler known for the purpose of crushing roots of all kinds, for feeding stock, quicker, easier, and better than any other Machine. 8th. That it expresses the juice from Apples or other fruit the moment they are crushed, wherein lies the great secret ol making good Cider or Wine. 9th. That it does not grind or break the seed of any kind of fruit; thereby doing away with a great objection which is urged against all otherMachinas. Enclose stamp ior uesenpuveuircuiar.
