D. & P. lIcDONALD,:::::::::::::::JIditori. PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY. OCTOBER ----- 38, 1 858 "Never Give up the Ship." The temporary defeat which DEMOCRACY has just sustained in this District, Las had this good effect: our party has been sifted, and the spurious Democrats, who, with Democracy upon their lips and black republicanism m tneir neans, hare been secretly worker; against us, art now fairly known. Wo wish our - a -k 1 a opponents much joy over the acquisition of these new allies, and advise them to tie the renegades neck and heels, or they will slip over into some other party. , The true Democrat like the true Patriot abates not "one jot or tittle" intho faith of his Principles because of Defea xt .i t. t n He sees in the triumph of his Cause the perpetuity of our Free Institutions and tho general good of the People. Defeat only urges him to renewed strength, and guards him against the plans of hi3 opponents. The wild excitement of 1840 brought a triumph to our opponents but the So berse:ond thought" of '44 and in '52 and '56 brought us victory as every election will, when all exciting Issues are discarded, and men only judge of the relative merits of Democracy and Black Republicanism. The litter hopes for success in Lcitmont alone while the former appeals to the Judgment of the People, and point to the history of our Country to prove that the Democracy have originated and carried out those great National measures which this day make us second to no nation h. the world The same opposition that vas raised against JeTerson for the purchase of Louisiana which was raised against Jackson for vetoing that arch-enemy of our Country the United States Bank and endeavored to keep out of this Union our sister Str.ta of Texas, after her gallant People had gained their Independeuce by succesfully fighting a powerful nation thro a war that lasted longer than that of our Revolution now arrays itself against the Demociacy, claiming no Principle as its aim, but seeking only to destroy by its Schemes the Prosperity of the Union built up by Democracy. The Republican leaders hope by effecting divisions in our Party and presenting false Issues, to leap from the shoulders of the People into the possession of Public Office. Our defeat will be turned to our advantage, for "out of evil cometh good." The contest was a hard fought one. Politically, it was bitter on our part, pertonally, it was all peace. As good Democrats, we yield to the majority, and hope that the gentlemen elected will perform their duties with honor to themselves and the People who have thus confided in them. Democrat Our defeat is but temporrry. "Pick your flints and try again," and "Nevei eive up the ship!" The election held on the 12th inst., has resulted in a general gain for the Republicans. Some say that this partial defeat of the Democracy is not attributable to the difference in the Democratic party in regard to 'Lecorapton;' but we can 6ee no other cause which could effect a defeat in districts where they have heretofore been triumphant. Many persons who have generally voted the Democratic ticket, but were no; active politicians, and were antiLecompton. thought they were compelled to endorse the President's Kansas policy if they supported the Democratic candidates; and, rather than support a measure which they considered unjust, voted with the Republicans. We trust that this tem porary triumph of ourenemies will teach democrats tue necessity of supporting their prin ciples' if they wish to succeed and keep the government out of the hands of fanatics and sectionalism. 3TH.

Their accounts fully authenticate the existeme of gold all along the South Platte, the; having prospected everywhere with dir sucecs. Most of the miners were seeking winter quarters at Bent's and St. Varin's forts. The returned party design wintering at Lawrence, where they were tendered w ith a public reception, and returning to the mines in the spring with a large outfit. Numbers continue to leave here, with the Intention to winter along the road. Louisville, Ky., Oct. 26. Horace Bell, who released his father and brother from Brandenburg jail last July, where they were committed upon a charge of running off negroes, was taken on Saturday from the Fair Grounds at New Albany, Ind., without a warrant, and was brought into Kentucky by Louisville officers. New Albaay became immediately excited; fire bells were rung, and a large meeting was held on Saturday evening. One hundred people chartered a ferry boat and left for Brandenburg yesterday, for the avowed purpose of rescuing Bell. Au express was sent from Louisville to Brandenburg, to place the citizens on their guard against tho hostile expedition. Gov. Willardhas promised a requisition on the Governor of Kentucky. Rochester, N. Y., Oct. 25. Ira Stout suffered the penalty of the law for the murder of Mr. Littles, yesterday afternoon. New Orleans, Oct. 23. The Howard Association regret to an nounce that the epidemic continues in fa tal prevalence, and cautions the unacli mated to keep away. Louisville, Oct. 36. The New Albany expedition, heavily armed, for the rescue of Horace Bell, left last night far Brandenbnrg and Elizabethtown island, whither Bell has been transferred. It is reported that Ken m tuckiani here ana elsewhere are concen trating to meet them. St. Louis, Oct. 6, The accounts of the battle with the Na vajo Indians is confirmed. Mr. Yost, their agent, had formally suspended all re lations with them. He says that their wealth consists of 25,000 sheep, and 5,000 horses, which, if destroyed, will drive them t? desperation, and a second Florida war may be expected. A Woman IIuii. Danville, Pa., Oct. 22. The Clark and Twiggs tragedy was to day brought to a conclusion by the execution of Mrs. Twiggs - for having taken part in the murder of her husband and Mrs. Clark. The condemned woman jpassed last night rather comfortably, sleeping with her chil dren in her arms. She took farewell of her brother and children this morning, and after devotional exercises iu her room, was taken to the scaffold at a quarter past ten o'clock, leaning on the arm of her spiritu al adviser. . A chapter having been read, and an impressive prayer offered up on the scaffold, Mrs Tw:2gs spoke for six or eight minutes, pretesting her innocence, declaring her readiness to die, and her trust in a just Judge regretting only to i l -1- j l l j cu. leave behind her two orphan children. She was much affected throughout; the solemnity of ths scene was made more impres sive by her groans and sobs. Even after he cap was drawn over her face, she ap pealed to Qod in the most earnest manner, isserling her innocence. At half past ten the drop fell, and after struggling for a
moments, me wreicnea woman nunjrifrom the ends of the earth

Why will not the Atlantic
Cable Work. Communication through the cable is not yet restored, and will not be until the sh? aend at Valentia is repaired. Whether thin will have the desired effect remains to be sesn. In the meantime, the scientfic world is again roused , into discussion of the causes and possibilities of failure. Mr. Babinet, of the r renoh Institute, writes to the Paris Dbais to say that, in a conversation which recently took place between himself and several eminent French electricians, the conclusion was come to, that it was next to impossible to obtain a. satisfactory result from such a conductor as the Atlantic cable. It appears that the electric current running around a wire surounded by other metalic threads produces a powerful electrical discharge, which give signalsaltogether foreign to the dispatch transmitted. The same thing took place before vers, when the cable was first laid across the Channel, but was obviated by the weakness of tho return currents, by employing an aparatus not too easily acted on by the discharge of the fluid. The tele graph between France and Algeri, however, still presents the same difficulties. It is nearly the same thing that would take placo in a room where the echoes are very powerful; where, after uttering one sound the speaker roust wait until the echo has died away. It took twenty hours to send the message of Queen Victoria to the President. In connection, with the discussion we give below a letter from a gentleman in Louisiana, wl o presents some novel ideas on this subject. Practical electmians will be able to judge whetht r its sugdstions are of importance. St. Joseph, La., Sept. 15ih, 1858. Editors of Day Bool: I have lately made cipric .ti with a section oi tne 'Atlantic ieiegrapti uaole, the result of which are in my opinio of the utmost importance. If you think them worthy of insertion in your Journal, you are at liberty to use them. I procured a section of the cable last June from a friend in Liverpool. It was 54 J inches in length. I applied to its entire surtace, by the use of machinery constructed for the purpose, a pressure equal to lO'OOO pounds to the square inch. I then applied the galvanic current to it whilest under this pressure, and found that it wa3 almost impossible to pass the fluid through. On removing the pressure the fluid was transmitted with as much facility as it was prior to the application of the pressure. I am not informed of the greatest depth to which the Atlantic Cable has sunk. I should like to learn in order to estimate the maxmium pressure existing upon its surface. It is this pressure which partly destroys the insulation produced by the gutta percha in the cable, and so much obstructs and weakens the fluid in its passage acrcss the Atlantic? There seems to be some plausibility in the hypothesis, and the result of my experiments strongly indicates that sueh may be the fact. . I would like to open a communication with some of your correspondents upon this subject, and send them a more detailed statement of my experiments, accompanied by drawings of the machinery made use of in effecting the pressure. It is really a curious piece of mechanism and was invented by an educated Choctaw Indian.I have discovered a substance superior to gut a percha as an insulator, cheaper, more durable, sufficiently elastic for all purposes, and very slightly affected by any pressure which 1 could bring to bear upon it. If any of your friends are curious in this matter. I will take pleasur-3 in imparting to them all my information upon the subject. Respectfully. Robert Y. Smiths. Prospect of Another Indian War. Dispatches have been received fromthe War Department of tne Interior from New Mexico, giving accounts of a fresh Indian war in the Navajo country. Captain McLean, of the Rifles, on returning from Santa Fe to Fort Defiance with seventeen mounted riflemen, and a few friendly Indians and Mexicans under Captan Bles Lassa ro, when within two days march of Fort Defianc discovered a large body of Indians attempting to surround him. He forthwith dismounted his men and attacked the Indians, who had signified by their war whoop their inteution of at tacking his force. He led the attack, and at the distance of three or four hundred yards fired and killed several Indians and dispersed the rest. A party of them who gained McLean, 8 flanks, opened a sharp nre ot arrows ana ouiiets. McLean was badly wounded; supposed at the time mortalev. His men continued the fight, and took a large amount of prep erty, norses. ore. it is supposea this is the band of Indians which protected the murderer of Major Brooks' servant. Colonel Mite commanding Fort Defi ance reports that this precipitates another nerious Indian war, and that he takes the field wi?i out delay with all the force, conr sisting of about three hundred mounted riflemen and infantry. It is . said these Indians number, about two thousand warriors. They are defiant, for when McLean's party drew their arms, they laughed in their peculiar fashion. It is believod that we are on the eve of a general Indian war. ' The Department, in view ot these circumstances, and the neces sity of giving security, to the overland routes, will act with determined vigor. Cause For Priisk. From the whole surface of the ocean, says Dr. Dick, there arise every twelve hours no less than thirty millions of cubic feet of water, which is sufficient to supply all the rivers on earth. This immense body of water is formed into the clouds and carried over every part of tne continents, ana again u is conaensea into rain, snow or dews, which water and fer tilize the earth. Should this process cease, we j might wash our clothes, but centuries would not dry them, for evaporation alone produces this effect, vegetation would wither, the rivers would swell the ocean, j
the operations of nature would cease. 00 ölx nunared thousand dollars will be close i3 the connection between this process I the lowost sum offered the State of Delaand vegetable and animal life. Praise the ' war0 at the approaching session of the

; A Good Mam's Wish.-I freely confessed to you, says Dr. Sharp, that I would rather, when I am laid in the grave, some one in his manhood would stand over me and
say, 'There lies one who was a real friend to me, and privately warned me of the dangers of the young; no one knew it, but he aided me in the time of need, I owe what I am to him.' Or I would rather have some widow, with choking utterance, ffllhno hpr r.hilnren. 'There is veur friend and mine. He visi.ed me in my affliction. un 1 fonnd von. mv Ron. an emnlover. and vou ray daughter a nappy uome in a virtuöus family,' I say I would rather that such Dersons should stand at mv grave than to have erected over it the most beautiful sculptured monument of Parisian or Italian marble. The heart's broken utterance of reflections of past kindness, and the tears of grateful memory shed upon the grave, are more valuable, in my estimation, than the most costly cenotaph every reared.

It is said that a gentleman from Kansas City, who is to start with one of tho trains leaving this week, will return as the embryotio Congressman. The grounds upon which they ask this action of congress will be, that situated as they are five hundred miles from the well-settled portions of Kansas, and its seat of government, it will be impossible for them to fined any protection from our Territorial authorities; and that unless furnished with an organization of uuicsM iurmaueu wua a Organization oi their own mob law must prevail and they must suffer from ceneral unarchv.

Hostilities are not to be expected as the result of his proper demands and offers. The London Times says tlir.t all appearances indicate that the present Atlantic Cable must be given up, and hopes that the experience gained will be used to insuro that success which is finally certain. It admits the superiority of the Niagara over the Agenemnon, and thinks that a ship should be especially constructed for laying cables. Jt3T Mr. Morgan, the Republican, candidate for Governor of New York, is a very .wealthy man. The New York News says he has agreed with the Republican Committee to spend 8100,000 on the election.' The Republican office-holders in New York have beentaxed 8100.000 in addition for campaign purposes. Such prodigal use of money in elections cannot De too strongly condemned. It is to be hoped that the freemen of New York will rebuke this manifest attempt at briberv auu corruption. 1 ? JtST The Greenfield, find.) Sentinel an nounces the death of Gen.

ASI1BEL P. WILLARD. Dakikl McClure, Secretary of State. S3T The idle maa is 6aid to be Satan's ambassador. Work always. Labor is a blessing to all. lie who works most, whether in body or mind, or both, is the happiest man. Labor and health ie the boon all should pray for. Idleness is the worst evil that can befall a sane man. The stagnant water soon becomes putrid and dangerous to all who approach it; but the runniug stream is refreshing to the 11 1 1 1 e eye: lull ot health, and sparkles, as it dances along its course, in the ray a of the sun. jfSTls there anything IT Ii. mgimj laugh of an innocent child? v'.n :mv other music so echo through the hear ' inT chambers? It is sympathetic. t', byan! other melodies. -When the Cither is so abaorbed over bis book, which seems to concentrate every faculty, he hears his little bay laughing 111 his sports, and Jaugns. also, he knows not. wherefore. The bright being continually gathering intelligence, casts around us gems of thought and pearls of affection until our paths seena paved with precious stones from heaven' treasury. No day of storm is dark where; he is no wintry evening long. A young child is a full fountain of delight to tha house and heait. . jf2T A correspondent of the Chicago. Free Press, reflecting on the sad fate of' Thurston, who recently went up in a balroonrfrom -Ai'.rian, Mich., has been induced to compute the time he cui!4 ha in falling to tho earth. Ills elev.Vioa waa thought to be three miles when he was last seen, and assuming this to be the distance that he fell, it would only require thirty-one aad a half . seconds for him to reach the earth, a velocity of 495 feet per second. Assuming his weight to be 160 lbs., he would strike the earth with a mo mentum equal to 1 GO, 800 lbs., or a little more than CO tons, a power sufficient to shattar his body, bone aid muscle, mU atoms so minuto as scarcely to be perceptible, if to not bury him into thc ground.
