LANE, OK DEARBORN COUNTY. TOR CONGRESS, SECOND DISTRICT, CYRUS L. DUNHAM, OF "WASHINGTON COUNTY. 0"Ve would call the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Messrs. J. M. & M. C. Tilford, which will be found in another column. The New Yokk Democracy. We are gratified to see that the Democratic General Committee of New York city have adopted resolutions having for their object the restoration of harmony and uniiy of action among the whole democracy of the Empire State, a body always invincible when united. The resolutions strongly condemn the administration, and the action of the Committee is an important step in that movement which is destined to prostrate whiggism as completely as federalism was laid out half a century ago. 7- The different parlies which have appeared on the scene of French politics of late, appear to be gradually melting down to two opposite factions, each of which comprises the lees numerous bodies whose tenets most assimilate to that of the two principal parties the Whiles and the Reds; the former including every species of conservatism, and the lattei the republicans, friends of improvement and onward piogress. without upholding the tenets of the more ultra Socialists and so called Red Republicans. Mr. Russell Tubes, of New Hampshire, has given a thousand dollars to the Washington New Hampshire Academy, on condition that it be called by his name. Tubbs' Academy! What a name! O" The friends of Mr. Buchanan in Pennsylvania, it is said, will endeavor to persuade him to be a candidate for the Gubernatorial chair. O The Albany Knickerbocker recommends as the beet of all things for preventive against cholera, soap and courage. Keep clean and keep cool. 07- The Eoston Post has discovered what Gen. Taylor meant when he said he wouldn-t "lend himself to party schemes;" he only meant that he wouldn't go to soirees, pic-nics, or tea-parties. 0:7 Mr. McConnell, a farmer residing near Springfield, 111., has sent nine tons of wool to an Eastern market the produce of his own clipping for the present season. 0"A Louisiana planter and physician states in a letter that he thinks it probable that the cholera has destroyed one-tenth of of the glare "f thst State. U" Colonel tol. Hiilen is named as the democaatic candidate for the next Governor of Maryland. 17" He (Gen. Taylor) is a good and true whig, but he will proscribe no man for a difference of opinion. Pie hates, loathes proscription. He loves the free utterence of opinion. He has commanded whigs and democrats on the field of battle lias witnessed their patriotic devotion and invincible courage while standing together shoulder to bhoutder has seen them fight bleed and did together; and God forbid that he should proscribe any man on account of a difference cf political sentiments. He would as soon think (said the speaker) of running from a Mexican! Senator Crittenden. French League. It is stated by the Quebec Gazette, that the leaders of the French portion of the population in Canada, are about to establish clubs in imitation of the League formed by the British Canadians. This will naturally tend to promote discord, and prevent the much desired unity, by which alone Canada can prosper as a colony. t-Ona of Taylor's new postmasters recently directed a package of letters to this city for distribution, as follows, exactly: "NOFOLIS INDIAN" Capacity u not the secret of that appointment, certainly. It must hare been honesty or fidelity! lad. State Sentinel. Corals, agates and chryttals are found on a stormy fhore; o the rugged soul finds God's most precious gift in the rugged path of sorrow.
Gold Digging. The Albany Argus publishes the following extract from Mr. Hy. Judson, who went to California in Col. Stevenson's regiment, and after being honorably discharged at Monterey, left that place with a party of five others, (fellow soldiers) for the mines, well supplied with tools, provisions, a cart, three yoke of oxen, &.c: "We were twenty-cne days making the journey here from Monterey; when we built us alog house killed our cattle, jerked our beef, and had everything 6nug and in order in two weeks. We went to work a fortnight ago, and in this short time our party have dug over one hundred and eighty pounds of gold, which gives us nearly $5,000 a piece. I happened to discover the spot from which we dug all this gold, which is the only good luck I ever had. We have nearly six months provisions left an advantage, when every necessary is so extravagantly high, which you can appreciate. After the rainy season, next spring, I shall start for the North and American Forks, where the most gold is found. It is too cold to winter there. I shall do well this winter, and when I do return I shall have a pile." "Mr. Stanfield, our candidate for Lieut. Governor, is also in the field, and will continue until the election. Ind State Journal. All a mistake, friend Mr. Stanfield is no more In the field than Nebuehadnazzar was, although we confess he would look well in a field say a ten-acre lot or more. Mr. Stanfield is a good-lookiDg man, and we object to his being turned out to grass. We understand he is the same man spoken of in some of the Ohio papers, who cleared up the principal portion of that country, and put the whole Miami bottom into corn, with his own hands, before he was fifteen years of age. Cramp such a man's genius ia a field, will you? Goshen Democrat. KorstrrH's Prothect. When Hungary was invaded by Jellachich, in September last, and fifty thousand armed men were collected in a fortnight, in the neighborhood of Stuhlweissenburg to repel the aggression, Kossuth issued a proclamation, from which we extract the following sentences : "It is an eternal law of God that whosoever ab andoneth himself, will be forsaken by the Lord. "It is an eternal law that whosoever assisteth hiruseif, him will the Lord assist. "It is a divine law that false swearing, by its results, chastiseth itself. "It is a law of our Lotd's that whosoever availeth hinself of perjury and injustice, prepareth himself the triumph of justice. "Standing firm on these eternal laws of the Universe, I swear that my prophecy will be fulfilled it is that the freedom of Hungary will be effected by this invasion of Hungary by Jellachich." There is every prospect that Kossuth's prophecy will be fulfilled; events thus far confirm it to the letter.
The Annexation or Canada. A Toronto correspondent of the Rochester Daily Advertiser confesses his positive conviction that a majority of the people of Canada are willing to be annexed to the Government of the United States. His languag, it will be seen by the following, is very decided; "I believe the time to have arrived when annexation could be effected, if it depended upon the majority of the Canadians. I have come to the conclusion by mixing with all classes of society, and by close observation. You cannot enter the house of any well informed man in Canada, and broach the subject of politics, but annexation is spoken of as a cure for all our present misfortunes, and the fact is, that until we have annexation we ehall have no peace, no prosperity or safety in the province." Lawyers and Mechanics. The New York Mirror, in a late number, says; "The bar is no longer the resort of the ambitious youths of our country. The mechanical departments are beginning to be preferred. There are now twentysix young gentlemen in this city, that have received liberal educations, who are serving their times as ship-wrights, carpenters, ice. In a few years the United States will have the most accomplished mechanics in the world. The union of a substantial education with mechanical skill will affe.it this." The Potato. It is a fact not generally known to farmers, that there are are two parts in the potato, which if separated and planted at the same time, one will produce tubers fit for the table eight or ten days sooner than the other. The small end of the potato, which is generally full of eyes, is the part which produces the earliest; the middle or body of the potato produces late, and and always produces large ones. A farmer, in the. Amherst Cabinet, says he always pursues this plan in order to btain an early supply for the table, which are usually fine and mealy. Clermont Eagle. A Prosperous Concern. From a recent exhibit of the Methodist Book Concern in New York, its assets appear to be $643,217 (0, while its liabilities amount to only $S,403 94. The profits of the Concern are annually divided among the several Conferences. 1CT The Knickerbocker for June is out. The following we find in the Editor's Table: "Here is a capital epigram from the pen of a friend on a woman with red hair, who wrote poetry: Unfortunate woman! how sad yonrlot, Your ringlets are red-and your poems are not.'

ROME STILL UNSUBDUED. lftSLUKfcClTIOft lft OEHMAWY. Markets Firm. FRANCE. The attempted insurrection in Paris has been followed by more formidable resistance to the laws. At Lyons a serious engagement took place in the streets between the troops and mob, in the course of which a considerable number of lives were lost on both sides. Barricades were thrown up, which were not taken until battered down by cannon. The fighting commenced on the morning of the 15th and continued late in the night, but a telegraphic despatch, dated at Lyons in the afternoon of the 16th, announces that the insurgents had been completely routed. The streets are clean, and the city restsored to tranquility. There are upwards of fifty thousand troops in and around Lyons. No apprehensions of any further disturbance. Great excitement existed in difftrnt places, and it is evident the conspiracy in Paris has extended to almost every town in France. The attempt made to get up disturbances in Marsailles totally failed. One regiment of cavalry put all to route without striking a blow. Ministerial changes are about to take place. Dafaure and his friends are about to retire. It is reported that Abbe Pallootk, private Secretary to Cardinal Antoile, has arrived at Paris from Gaeta. and that he is bearer of important dispatches to the French Government, and an autograph letter from the Pope, to Louis Napoleon, expressing his regret at the bombardment of Rome. HUNGARY. The news from Hungary and Austria is contradictory. Some accounts give advantages to the Austrians in the South. Two actions have taken place, both terminating favorably to the Imperialists. The Hunearian General, Perizel, from the fortress, Peter Warden, attacked some Austrian entrenchments, but was ultimately repulsed. Though the Austrians admit suffering severely, Arother battle fought by Baron Lillochich is asserted to have been a brilliant victory. But Austrian accounts are not trustworthy; at least as far as regards their own loss. The London Globe of the 22d ult has intelligence to the 16th June, giving accounts of a tremendous encounter between the Hungarians, Austrians and Russians. The Austrians and Russians were completely defeated, leaving 23,000 killed on the field of battle. The battle took place on a large plain between Raab and Weinelburg, and lasted sixty-four hours. The Maggars loss is stated at about eight thousand. The Austrians commanded by Ileyman, the Russians by Rudyer, and the Hungarians by Georgey. Although the news of this battle was received by private letters, none of the papers alluded to it. The Vienna papers contain not the most distant allusion. Another affair is mentioned as having occurred at Croina. A brigade was sent by Schlick from Orenburg under Gen. Wiss. Wiss was taken prisoner, and Uplan and Col. Baron Zessner killed. Schlick sent this brigade to cover his right flank whilst marching to Raab. It was beaten on the 13th ult. Some reports represent this whole brigade destroyed; others that four thousand troops had deserted Schlick, and gone to the Maggars. For three days, carts have poured into Presburg nd other places. A fresh recruitment throughout all Austria is intended. Letters from Oldenburg state that a certain Count Imperial Chamberlain and others, in whose possession a number of passports of rebel parties have been found, have been arrested. The only mention or allusion which can be gleaned from Vienna papers regarding the great battle fought on the 13th ult., near Raab, is the surmise that the defeat of Wiss's brigade gave rise to fabulous rumors. On the other hand, the authorities maintained that the route of Wiss was only an episode of other battles. Letters of the 13th ult., from Cracow, publish ed in the Breslau Gazette, mentions an affair be tween the vanguard of the Maggars and the Rus1 sians, within the Gallacian frontier, at Jordanon The Russian Col. Mayden was killed, and two hundred Cossacks cut off and taken prisoners. J Another letter, dated Cracow, 15tk ult., men tions reports of an engagement at the ena of the pass, between Bern and the Russian advanced guard, numbering six thousand men, who were j beaten off. j France up to the latest dates was tranquil. j Ledru Rollin has not yet been arrested. Chole- . ra decreasing in Tarn.
ITALY. The news from Italy is up to the I3th ult, up to which time the Romans had maintained their position. The French used cajolery and threats, but the Romans stoicly resisted all advances, and in the most dignified manner refused yielding to the summons of surrender issued by Oudinot. On the Ilth a breach was effected in the walls and a portion of their troops entered. This report led to the belief that the struggle was over; but it appears that on the 12th Oudinot issued a letter to the Triumvirs, making a last appeal to them, endeavoring to throw upon them the responsibility of blood being spilt in the event of refusal. GEM ANY. The G erman States bordering on the Rhine are quiet. General insurrection going on. The Prussians have now advanced, and a struggle has taken place at Mancbieve. Result not known. ENGLAND. In England nothing of interest. There has been little change in the state of business affairs during last week. Produce market moderately
supplied, but there is no extensive demand. Holders firm, insisting on full rates. Cured pro visions meets fair enquiry at steady prices. The money market to-day has been firmer; consols having been 91.'39I5, are now 91 9I?Y for acconnt. HEALTH REPORT. 'Cincinnati, July 6, 1 P. M.

Once in a while, way out here in the West, you may rake up a scien tific that is some. It don't matter whether he's a regular built a dye-root and tan-bark or a Number 6; whether he spells our better half Phe-mail or syrrup, Sir-rip come in whatever shape he may he's a jewel. But to return to our mutton, as they say tn the South of France. We heard of one on the Ar kansas river, who had settled in a kind of "out of the way" place, where medicines wers scarce. He had a call; his only chance was elder bark. Scraping it up, he obtained an emetic scraping it down, cathartic; and without scraping at ail, a diaphoretic. Our infeamant asked the patient how it an swered. "Why, God bless you," said he "he got it all mixed up scrapings down, scrapings up and smooth bark for it gave me the cholera morbus, and like to have sweat me to death!" This was in Arkansas, but Tennessee beats it. Old Dr. Smittee, who according to the advertisement, was "related to the king of Prussia, and own cousin to Baron Trenck, the man what you 'read of,"' thus described a case in his practice: "Well, I was riding along, and just as I come to one of my neighbor's house, I hear a boo-hoo-ing, I listen, it keep going. I git down, hitch my horse, and walk in. I find my neighbor, his wife, and all his children, crying ever so loud, and and there lay a negro woman who had been dead several hours. I look on, I feel pity for them, I I go to my old saddle-bags; I get out my vial of precious medicine I bring all the way from Prussia; it cost me forty guineas a drop. I give her one drop, open fly one eye! I give her huder half drop, open fly toder eye! I leave and mount my horse, and go to Clarkesville. Been gone two, three days, when I ride by the house again. I listen I hear ze-ze-zis-ze-ze-zip. I git down, hitch my horse; I go in den what I see! dat same nigger done spun her tree cuts!' Batesville, (Ark.) Eagle. Curiosities.

A MOTHER'S TEACHIN
ST L. H. SIGOCRNIT. V The boy eat listening to the worct That from his mother fell; Pure lessons, wrapped in tender tone Like music's softest swell. And oft he marked her musing brew, With holy silence bright, And blessed her placid smile, and deemed" That angels loved the sight. But when the mother laid her down' To rest in mouldering clay, The world's temptations o'er him rolled. And swept his faith away. Like birds that scorn the fowler's snare, He trifled with his fate; Forgot to seek the Spirits's aid, Or for his teachings wait. Thence, as in his mid-night watch, The lonely deck he paced, With the sad, solemn stars above, And round old Ocean's waste. And though her warning voice, who long 'Neath the cold soda had slept Spoke forth from every rushing wave, That on resistless swept. He thought a tear-drop like her own, Fell from a gathering cloud, That round the beauty of the moon Had wreathed its silver 6hroud. He thought the searching eye of God Flamed in his secret soul, And down the proud man bowed in tears, To own its strong control. Whenever you go to drown yourself, always take along your corks, for after you get into the water you may change your mind to take a bath. In such a case brick-bats, they say, dont answer. It is a mark of a depraved mind, to sneer at decrepit old age, or to ridicule any one who is deformed in his person. It is not quality, but innocence which exempts men from reproof.
