liawrciiccburffh, August SI. We ar3 requested to say that Samuel McCurdy is a candidate for school trustee. We have been requested to say that Geo. Cable is a candidate for justice of the peace in this township. On Thursday last our town and vicinity were visited by a shower cf rain, that lasted for 2 or 3 hours. The effect has been most pleasantly felt in the coolness of the air, and the revival of scorched and suffering vegetation. The Cholera, it appears from the report of the mayor, has entirely ceased at Cincinnati. The Ohio river is extremely low. Steam boats, of light draught, continue, however, to ply between Cincinnati and Louisville. A "broad horn" occasionally slides alcng south, under the operation of manual power, at the rate of 8 or 10 miles per day. Steam Mill. On Saturday evening last, a meetin? of the citizens of this nlace was held at 3Ir. Hunt's Hotel, to devise ways andl means for the erection of a steam flouring mill. The meeting was organized by calling Walter Armstrong, Esq., to the chair and appointing Maj. John P. Dunn secretary. After some remarks by the chairman, in explanation of the object of the meeting, a committee, composed of George Tousey, James W. Hunter, and John P. Dunn, was appointed to ascertain who, and what number of persons, were desirous of engaging in the work, and what amount of capital would be required to carry the object of the meeting into effect. The meeting then adjourned to this evening, to meet at the same place and hear the report of the commi.ttee. Those who feel an interest in the prosperity of the place, and surrounding country, are earnestly solicited to attend to-night, and by their united exertions, aid in the promotion of an object of great importance to our citizens m general. The returns from the several congressional , districts in this state, confirm our report of last week, excepting the 2d district, in which it seems the result is yet doubtful. The contest lies between John Ewing and John W. Davis, and not George Boon, as was ot first reported. The Indiana Democrat says "we have an unoiiicial statement from all the counties in the 2d district which places Dr. Davis a few votes ahead of Mr. Ewing. The vote is so close that there can be no certainty of the actual result, until officially returned to the secretary of state." John Carr, Ratliff Boon, Jonathan M'Carty, Amos Lane, George L. Kinnard, Edward A. Hannegan, and either Dr. Davis or John Ewing, compose the delegation to congress from this state. The official vote in each district will be given as soon as ascertained. The Louisville Advertiser gives the following statement of the votes for member of

We present the following as a correct list of members returned to Congress from this state. In the first District, we have not ascertained to a certainty whether Mr. Lyon or Mr. Boyd have been elected, but are of the opinion, from information received, that the former gentleman has succeeded by a considerable majority. The result of this election,'has terminated in the choice of nine National Republicans, to four firm friends of the Administration. This result is not at all unexpected, when we take into consideration the management in the formation of the Congressional Districts by the last Legislature of Kentucky.

Well may the county of Lancaster be denominated the garden of America when her fair daughters are able and willing, at such an age, to undergo such industry.

If it is true, as we have seen it stated in the St. Louis Republican, that those vast regions of the far West, hitherto covered with Buffalo, are deserted by that animal, a curious and interesting question will arise as to the cause. Whither they have emigrated, time will explain; but why those vast and fertile prairies, and the salt licks, to which in heards of hundreds of thousands, the noise of their feet sounding like rumbling thunder, they have so long wended their way, should be deserted, is a question we have no means of solving. We know, they and the Indians have receded from tho beginning, and gone, always in advance of civilization. The approach of the white man has been alike startling to both. Once, the plains of Illinois, and of the states nearer home, were covered with Buffaloes: and the Indians were there with their numerous bands. Now both are gone gone over the great water, the Mississippi. A panic would seem to have followed them there; and onward they seem to have gone, breasting, or perhaps crossing, the Rocky Mountains: the Indians must follow. These animals are their bread, and meat, and clothing; they furnish the Indians with beds also. They are indispensable, in the present condition of those remote Indians, to their existence. No wonder they are represented as starving, and that the traders, deprived of their usual means of subsistence, should be obliged to trench upon their stores of tongues, and, in other respects, look about them for means of living. Too long has a war been carried on by traders upon the Buflalo, for their tongues and tallow. It is said the Buffalo feels secure when with the Indians, but that he Hies at the aDDroach of the white man, and is alarmed at the sound of his gun. The Indian shoots the sharp shrill sound of his rifla soon passes away, and is not soon repeated. He goes to the carcass, cuts off tho meat, and is satisfied. The white man's rille is ever ringing. Whole hoards are shot down not for subsistence, but for the tongues and tallow, as articles of traffic. As many as ten and twelve thousand tongues have been sometimes brought to market in a single boat! This may have been the cause of the disappearance of the Buffalo from these immense plains, inhabited by them for ages. Comm. Herald. We have been informed, that on an estate of General Wade Hampton, on the Mississippi, a little above New Orleans, out of fifteen hundred slaves, more than seven hundred have been destroyed by Cholera.

Fire at Connersvillc.We regret to learn

that the citizens of Connersvule, were visited on Monday evening last, Aug. 12, by a very destructive fire. The particulars, as we have learned, are as follows: the fire was discovered about 9 o'clock issuing from tho back part of the Grocery and Liquor Store of Mr. Wousteh, on Monroe street, which soon resulted in the entire destruction of the whole block of buildings from Fryr.URGirs corner to Mr. Wattox's; comprising three Stores and two dwelling houses. Mr. Wocster, wo are sorry to add, is left entirely destitute -not being able to save a solitary article of goods. The others were enabled to save the greater portion, though in a confused and destroyed condition. The flames spread with such rapidity that it was with the utmost exertion on the pirt of the citizens tint the adjoining block,) was saved from sharing a similar fate.. We have not learned how the fire originated the los3 of property is variously estimated at from 25 to 30,000. Particulars next week. Brooktille American. Fire. A Black-Smith's Shop was consumed by fire on the night of the 5th inst. at New-Trenton, Indiana. Loss, about $150. Ib. The Indiana Democrat says: We are requested by the Agent of tho three per cent, fund to give information, that four hundred dollars are now in his hands, for each of the counties in the State, to be applied under the appropriation of last winter." Beat this who can. A little girl," 11 years old, daughter of Wm. Vandemark, of this town, spun on a common wheel, and reeled the same, 110 knots first quality woolen yarn, commencing at sun-rise and finishing at sun-set. This, truly, is great, considering that 40 knots is a good day's work for an experienced spinner. We repeat it; beat this who can, and we would be pleased to record other instances of this kind. Phelps Journal. A South Carolina paper mentions a lady of that state who has one hundred thousand silk worms busily engaged, and that she expects to raise silk enough by tho latter part of August,, to manufacture more than a hundred yeards of cloth. Two other ladies are also mentioned who have made silk cloth. I and sold it for $2 per yard. A Sailor's Explanation. There is, in England, a tomb-stoiio bearing the following inscription: I). D. D. D. D. D. J). and the visiters of the yard are frequently puzzled to decipher its meaning. It is called the Seven lVs. There were one day two wags trying to give it an explanation, but without effect, when an old tar, steering his rr,!irso tn t'ift tr ick' r:imr tr nnrlwr 1 vn Jack, said one of them, what's the meaning of so many D's on that stone! Why, you lubber, that's Doctor Dudley's grave, and, according to my reckoning, it means, "Do Dear Devil Decently Damn Doctor Dudley." X. Ir. Gazette. Cholera in Columbus. During the week ending August 8th, there where but 0 deaths from Cholera in Columbus. No new cases are reported in the adjacent towns. Probably Columbus is now entirely free from tho disease. In the Penitentiary, from the 12th of July to tho 6th of August there occurred 35 malignant cases of Cholera, and eleven deaths. On the 6th inst. hut one patient remained in the hospital. A number of cases of diarrhcea existed, but nothing of the malignant disease. Ohio Atlas. We learn from the "Far West," that the Cholera prevails along the Yellow Stone and Kansas rivers. A famine also threatens the inhabitants of the immense regions of the Upper Missouri. No Buffalo had appeared upon the plains of that country during the past spring. tb. TOR THE PALLADIUM. The following lines are supposed to have been the rellections of a gentleman on the death of his wife. "When death calls: The fairest works of nature fall." Of my belov'd I am bereft, And in this world a mourner left. My Eliza, though in youthful bloom, Is summoned to the silent tomb. To worlds above her spirit's flown, On wings of love to Jesus borne; Oh God! thou only didst her send A few short years with me to spend. And now she's gone and left me here, No more my lire-side to cheer; No more to hear her cheerful voice, Or in her presence to rejoice; No more to meet her lovely face, Or in it the sweet welcome trace; No more to meet that speaking eye, Which always bid my sorrows fly. My loss in silence I will mourn, Tho' grief my anguishM heart has torn: For loss of infant, daughter dear! And bosom friend in one short year. Thus all my comforts fly apace, And leave behind naught but their trace. ! I sickning turn me to inv room: But all is silent, void and gloom! The loved one's gone, that used to greet The sounds of inv returning feet No cheerful voice salutes my ear, To soothe my scul from heavy care. Deprived of all most dear on earth, I lonesome sit upon my hearth; The slave of care and solitude, And over joys departed brood. O thou! who gives, and takes away My ev'ry murmuring passion stay, And grant thy grace and strength to give While in this world I'm spared to live! And when my davs on earth are o er, Take me where parting is no more: There on that sweet and fertile plain, The friends I mourn I'll meet again! F. W. B.

The very frequent applications wo Inve had for copies of Col. Boyle's recipe ns a substitute for Paint, induces us to republish it. Maryland Repuhlican. To Make paint irithovt White Lead and Oil. Two quarts skimmed milk, two ounces fresh slacked lime, five pounds of whiting. Put the lime into a stone-ware vessel, pour upon it a sufficient quantity of milk, to mike a mixturo resembling cream; the remainder of the milk is then to be added ; and lastly, tho whiting is to be crumbled, and spread on the surface of the fluid, in which it gradually sinks. At this period it must be well stired in, or ground as you would other paint, and it is fit for use. There may bo added any coloring matter that suits the fancy. It

is to be applied in the same manner as other paint and in a few hours will become perfect ly dry. Another coat may then be added, and so on until the work is completed. This paint is of great tenacity, and possesses a slight elasticity, which enables it to bear rubbing even with a coarse woollen cloth, without being in the least degree injured. It has little or no smell, even when dry, is perfectly inodorous. It is not subject to bo blackened by sulphurous or animal vapours, and is not injuriousto health. AH which qualities give it a decided advantage over tho white lead. The quantity above mentioned issiifiicient for covering twenty-seven square yards with one coating. Cholera. Our village has been thrown into considerable alarm and cxcitrment by the appearance of a few cases of Cholera among us. Our physicians have reported G cases that have occurred during the present week, which they suppose to be Cholera, 4 of which have proved fatal. It has thus fur been confined to transient persons, whoso habits and manner of living have been such as to render them most likely to take the disease no cases have yet occurred among thoj-egulir citizens.
