"Hard Times." You can scarcely bo in company with a merchant, mechanic, farmer fcc, but you will hear them complain of "hard times" and the scarcity of money. "We have had a bountiful harvest corn cops are coming in better than usual, and yet we hear the cry of "hard times" di.ily and hourly. A great number of bant i, hitherto considered crood, have bursted, and eastern merchants by the score have failed, and we should judge- from present indications, that we are not only to have a crisis in money matten, but we are to have a general "smash." "We most unquestionably have not reached the culminating point in
the west, and money can be obtained moe
, asilv now. than it can be for the next
w tt.elve months, so all monied men say. We are no alarmist, but when we see the felorm that must iuevitably overtake us we tat the liberty to warn our friends to mate preparations for the worst. The greater portion of debtors, hy commencing in time, can so shape their business, that when the crash doos come as come it will they can teep head and shoulders above water. We hav been accustomed to enormous high prices, for the last few years, and we find it very difficult to reconcile ourselveä now, to such as we had fife years since. Prices ate not yet down to ruinous rates'. Ilorfes, beef cattle and stock hog3, command a living price; wheat and oils are low and from present appearances corn will sell at low figures. Under existing circumstances, the question naturally arises, what ought people, who are involved, to do? We don't profess to have enough foresight to answer definitely; we think however, that the safe way would bo to curtail expenses as much as possible contract no debts live within our means sell enough of grain or stoct
at the be3t figures we can get, to pay off
our debts. Then we will feel independent as the red man in the western wiles. i mm 1 1 Consistency. Some of the Republicans appear to be troubled in spirit in reference to the nomi
nations made bv the Democratic conven
tion in thii county.
The greatest objection seems to be to Ihe nominee for Recorder, in consequence
of him being a relation of our3. All ad
mit, so far as our knowledge extends, that
he is well qualified to discharge the duties
of the office, and weie it not that be is our relative, the nomination would be well
enough.
We some how or other cannot persuade
ourself that they have any serious objections to him on that account; for the very
; next week after his nomination, the Republicans nominated Thomas K. Houghton for Recorder, who is a first cousin of ours. We bare known cousin Houghton from bis infancy, and never had augbt against him, except his Reptblican notions. He will excuse us for mentioning his name ia this connection; we merely wish to post our Republican friends in reference to our relatives, so that when they vote for Recorder, they .can. do it understanding!. ZSrOught not the Clerk to have named . Commissioner for the 3rd District, in his . writ of election, as ono of the offices to be filled? Does not it and Recorder rest on the same ground? Jf. C. Republican; m To the first question, we answer, he ou2ht not. To the second we answer, it doe3 not. Mr. Gordon was elected Commissioner in District No. 3 in October, 1852, and his term commenced in August, 1853; he served three years, and from August to No
vember, 1856, according .to tho law of
' 1855. The present incumbent, Mr. Hughs, was elected m October, last, and his term commenced on the first day cf November. : There is no question in reference to the
urinfj the time our neighbor was
a candidate for County Auditor, ho ured
people to vote for him becausdihe was too
fat to work. Dan. his son. we hear is urg
ing in his behalf, that he is too lean. Go it
bare bones. J". C. Republican.
So far as the abovo relates to ourself, it is an unmitigated falsehood. No person ever heard us mate such remarts. We.
supported our family by hard labor, prior
to being elected Auditor, rnd when our term of office expires, we expect to do so again. The remark in reference to "Dan,"
whom he calls "bare bones," we presume
is equally fatee. - When an editor condescends to 'mate sport of a person's natural shape or ap
pearance, they undoubtedly have lost all self-respect, if they ver had any. Were we inclined to write an essay on the physiognomy of any person, wo would not desire a better subject than the editor of the Republican. m m ZSTOur friend McCormick,. of Staik county, by request of a number of the citizens of Knox, has announced his name in to-day's paper, as a candidate for the office of Circuit Judge. It is rather unfortunate that his name was not announced sooner; a great many who would have baen glad to have supported him, have committed themselves. The Democratic convention in this ccunty, not expecting a Democrat to bo on the track this year, res aired to supsupport Mr. Osborn, a3 ho had consented that his name might be used, independent of any party considerations.

?rWe call attention to the early reminiscence of the Hon. 0. H. Smith, on our first page. Many of the circumstances detailed are quite interesting. A goodly number of our readers were formerly residents of Fayette and Rush connties, and wero personally acquainted with Mr. Smith aud the early preachers he names. We have a distinct recollection of hearing Eld. Strange use tho sentence to which Mr. Smith refers.
Circular to the Voters Marshall Conxitv.
As therC has been a diversity of opinion why I am again a candidate before you for the office of Treasurer,,it is due to myself, and to my constituents, that I should give an explanation. Owing to an act of tho Legislature of 1855, mating tha beginning of all the county offices uniform, the election last October was illegal. II the Supreme Curt decides the act constitutional, and there
fa a bar? possibility of that being the case, I again have come before you, asking an
endorsement, for that which I was elected
to last fall, in good faith. I do not ask you to continue me in my office any longer
than my commission now runs, viz: from
the 10th of August, 1857, two years. I
have filed my bond, duly approved, re
ceived ray commission from the Governor, and am now in tho faithful discharge of
the duties of ruy office. I have nothing to offer to disparage tho claims of my honorable competitor, Mr. Oglesbee; if elected, he no doubt would make you a good officer; but, as I wa3 endorsed by a respectable rote last till, and received in convention a reindorsement. I know of nothing now to render me less worthy to be continued in office my full term. I learn it is reported that if beaten, I intend to contest the right to the office if the Supreme Court at its next November term decides against me. This, I positively deny. If it decides in my favor, I shall un
doubtedly hold; for then the election of
1856 was legal.
Trusting that every voter will give this
matter a favorable hearing; I remain, most
respectfully, your obedient servant. D. TINNED GE.
The Ariel, from Bremen, via Southampton Sept. 9th, arrived in New York on Wednesday evening. Rev. Mr. Hay, an American missionary to India, with his wife, who succeeded in escaping from Allahabad, were at Southampton, where they arrived in the Ripon steamer. The Rev. gentleman preached
at two of the leading dissenting chapels in Sunday the 6th inst. Thy were about to return to New York.' The Marquis of Dalhousie h 6ail, by the press, to have set a noble example, by placing the whole of his pension of 5,01)0 per annum, conferred upon him by the East
India Company, at the disposition ot the London Committee, for the aid ot the sufferers from the Indian rebellion. Particulars are received of tho religious riots previously reported to have t ten place in Belfast on the Gih inst. It seems that while Rev. Hujrh Hanna was delivering a temperate evangelical address, in the open air, to a congregaton of some 5,000 or 6,000 people, first one whistle than another in a different direction were heard, whereupon the crowd immediately divided, each party tating its own side. The Belfast Mercury thus describes the scene that ensued :
A volley of stones came from the party next the dock, accompanied by a cheer, which was answered, and in less time. than it tates us to narrate it, the conflicting parties were fihtin?. Those next the docks gave way, pursued by men who, it afterwards appeared, weie principally shipwrights, -brandishing wooden bludgeons used in their trade. The fighting portion of the mob went up Donegall quay, and, in a short time afterwards, about forty youDg men and boys ran inlo the ship yards at the quay, from which they speedily return ed with a further supply of the weapons already noticed. In the meantime, their opponents were reinforced, and came towards the soeno of action, driving the stragglers before them, in no very tender mode, when a conflict ensued which ended in their retreat in all directions. The treatment some men then received was dreadful. When the Catholic mob sought safety in flight, they were knocked down in all directions, and brutally treated. One man especially received such abuso that, if ho survives, it may bo said a man's stall can resist anything." The belligerents aain
Of I went up the quay, but were stopped about
Gamble street by the Constabulary, under Sub-Inspector Bindon. The two parties were then tepirated, and wee to the unhappy man, whether Catholic or Protest
ant, whose business or pleasure left him
within the power of either mob. Many mnocent persons of both sides, who tnew nothing of the distur&ance, have been tr.e sufferers, and it will be well if loss of life doe3 not result from the brutality of these miscreants." During the niht tho riots were renewed,
and the constabulary being obliged, in self-
defence, to fire on the mob, one young man was tilled and several others badly wounded. All was quiet on Monday morning.
A lartxo number of rioters were arrested
and promptly punished.
The London Times had a very savage
leader, not long since, ridiculing the ap
pointment of Sir W. Codnngton to be the i,;a
Continental travels, when his services were a m m
needed ia Inu.2. krae üays atterwards a letter was forwarded t6 the Times, by way
of renlv. in which tho General expressed
his perfect readinoss to serve I.n India if
erful combination on the other Bide for the avowed purpose of bringing all the principal undertakings to ruin. Unlike those of any other country, the majority of the leading speculators of New York are devoted to the tast of depreciating national credit. Whether this arises from tho extent to which American lialrliiiesare held by for
eigner need not be disclosed a large body
of active persons are known to be associated for this purpose. m They influence the press to work out their views, and are able not merely to operate with joint capital, but to.hold regular meetings and permanently to retain legal advisers, whose chief vocation it may be assumed is to discover points that may enable the validity of each tind of security to be called in question, and thus create distrust. " They are also said to succeed, in a large number of instances, in getting their own creatures into control of companies, ostensibly supporting or opposing them, as may best suit their tactics in each particular case. Each new revelation of fraud is hai.ed as a triumph, and such directors and shareholders as may show a disposition to take advantage of technicalities to defeat all equitable claims, instead of being booted frtni the exchange, find a circle of admirers. Of course this state of things would
end, cr be greatly mitigated, if stoct and
bond holders were to exercise vigilance.
In most instances the proceedings are so
notorious and tho laxity of management so
complete and long continued, that English investors, if they had any rational agent on
the spot, could not fail to be warned. But
there is no London committee of American stock brokers, and apparently no possibility
of forming one. Yet something should be
dono if possible to remedy the evil. Some persons will say tho best remedy would be
lounu by an avoidance of American invest
ments altogether; but this, although it
forms likely enough to be brought about
unless tho respectable portion of the Amer
ican mercantile community can contrive to
influence public opinion, is not a result that any one anxious for the advancement
of tho best interest of both countries would
wish to see take place. No field for the
employment of capital is superior to that of the United States, and the sympathies of business beget a universal disposition
here to seek it. Under such circum
stances it i3 deplorable that, owing to a
want ol concerted astion among portions
of two communities, a depraved minority should command all tho channels of enter
prise and render confidence impossible."
A memorandum had been issued from
the Horse Guards, to the effect that gentlemen qualified in other respects might
obtain commissions in the army by raising
luu recruits. Rev. Dr. Livingston had attended
a
meeting of tho Manchester Cotton Supply Association, Chamber of Commerce, etc.,
He said that
country was well adapted for producing cotton, sugars, etc., and he proposed devoting the next few years of his life to special efforts developing these pursuits in Africa. Resolutions were adopted calling on the government to furnish Dr. Livingston with a steamer to ascend the Dainbest river, and to enlist the Portuguese government in favor of the enterprise. The renewal of tho religious riots at Belfast had caused the government to issue a commission of inquiry into matters, with tho view to punish the offenders and adopt preventive measures in future. The government promises prompt and vigorous action. The Catholics of Belfast have organAll 1 fllin flaill V 1 v A t.M C AMKtn

He says the Bank have arranged with the Ohio, Trust Company by taking bonds and mortgages for their balances, about 8800,000, This locks up that amount, but is'not equal to their undivided profits. There are 36 branches with 84,100,000 capital, SI, 100, 000 undivided profits, and 10,000 bills receivable. vTha Banks," the President remarks, "are in a more comfortable situation than when the Trust Company's failure occurred, the loans are on acti?o commercial p-vper based chiefly on the export trade of

Ihe I'aria correspondent of the London Time3 notices the rumors afloat ot tho intentions of the British government to en
list a foreign legion for India. We do not
think it at all probable that these rumors are correct, bat the writer says: " It is reported here but I hope without foundation, that the English government i.s about opening recruiting offices ia several of the German Principalities, as well as in the United States, to raise reinforcements for its army in India. It is not generally considered that the enlistment of foreign
troops was one of the most judicious of
the measures adopted by our government during the late war, and it has been questioned whether, at the same outlay, a plentiful supply of recruits might not have been obtained in Great Britain and Ireland, the money granted for recruiting expenses to foreign officers and agents beinsr otherwise applied a liberal bounty, that is to say, to the British volunteer." The Canada, from Liverpool Sept. 12th, arrived at Halifax on Wednesday afternoon. Great Britain. Cyrus W. Field has has written to the London Times in response to the statemtuts of that paper in
regard to tho availability of the Atlantic
cable for the Indian telegraph. Mr. I icld
auer a minute examination Dy electrician ;
and others, says tho reported generation of
neat in ino cauie is iaise, as no neat exists
in tho holds of the Agamemnon and Ni.u;
ara beyond what is natural ; that the cable tests as perfectly through its whole length
as when it was hrst putou board 1L2 ships,
and that there is not tho slightest appre-
ueusiuu oi injury occurring to me caoie. Experiments at a temperature of 135 Fahrenheit, and extreme pressure of weight have been recently resorted to with satisfactory results. He also says that, as regards the sale of the cable, the suggestion did not come from the Atlantic Company, and, when offers were made, they only consented to entertain them on condition that they could contract for a similar one to bo made and ready for them in time to secure its being laid at the earliest practicable moment in tho spiing. - Mr. Field briefly disposes of the false insinuations against tho Company by asserting that they have nothing to conceal, and all their acts are open to public scrutiny. Tho money article of the London Times contains extended remarks in regard to the financial crisis in New York and American securitiss generally. It says that it conjectures that the amount of American securities held in England is from eighty to one hundred millions, and it deprecates the apathy exhibited by capitalists as to tho management of railroad affairs, concluding as follows : " Whilo tho total absence of organization prevails in England there is actually a poir-

To measure a half bushel (or other measure), squaro the diameter in inches, multiply by the decimal 0.7854, which gives the top or bottom in square inches, if the diameter i3 uniform. Multiply thi3 area by the depth in inches, and the product is the contents in cubio inches. Example. A half bushel measure is 13 inches in diameter, its depth 8 inches; 13 squared is IC9, multiplied by 0.7854 is 132.7326, multiplied by 8 gives ICG 1.

The area of the top of the full bushel is 268 8-10 square inches, therefore that of the half bushel should be 134 4-10, and must therefore have a diamrter of 13.1-12 inches, nearly. To preserve the accuracy of the heaped measure or the cone all fractional measures should preserve their proportionate areas of tops. SOLIDS. Tho cubic yard contains 27 cubic feet.
