The American Cooking Stove After twenty years' experience in the manufacture of Stoves. wn b'-eiuiH convinced, some six year fönec, that a vast amount of money was nein expended bv the letp'e of this country in buying cheap and almost worthless stoves, a la rye portion of which was wasted ; and that true economy consisted in buying the bct stoves that could be made, notwithstanding the price was hiirh'T. With this view, we uroeeoded to construct the .4t'4'iei;t L'ol.irg .S'oce, and spared no pains or cxper.se to make it the best and most perfect stove that could be m?d . Aud we have experimented with it, and carefully watched its operations for the laM vix years, and when an Improvement suggested itself, we have at once adopted it. and we. have several of these secured by letters patent. In this manner, we no noj, hesitate to say, we have brought it to a higher state of perfection than has heretofore bren attained in cooking stoves. The recent improvements in this stove has added largely to its convenience and effectiveness. In all the varietic" of stoves we manufacture, wa study usefulness, durability, convenience and economy In operation, rather than cheapness in p; ic aud in so doing we are sati.-.f.cd we study the.

The lYutioniil Ranks. It were impossible to make a complete review of the ruinous financial schemes of 1 rii 1 rArnrritiiAit Uli limit riATic b" -""'vui., ikwivui. u"iu"'u6 lllVi worst feature of it all, and the greatest mongrel monopoly ever estabUsnea by a rcople's zovcrumcut for the sole benefit of a mongrel arictocrucy, to the practical cxelusion of the laboring mas.-w and the poorer classes of society. Hut, say mongrel oligarchs of the nontaxable, interest bearing boudholding persuasion: "What objection can be entertained against the National ank.s ? They are the safest banking institutions ever inaugurated siucc the dawn of political economy. Under our system, say they, no losses can possibly occur to the holders of national bank notes the government holds collateral rccurity over and above every dollar circulated by these bank:-, and, if a bank fails, the holders of its "notes can have recourse on the government to cover every dollar." The question of solvency has not been raised by the people in reference to their highly favored banking instituti ns. They ought to be solvent, nnd what is more, they ought to thrive as never banks thrived before; the government is tributary to them, in paying them a heavy rate of interest on their non-taxable bonds, deposited as collateral, and in furnishing them with their circulating notes without charging them one cent of interest, Under sunh favorable conditions, why should not these banks be solvent t aud why should they uot flourish beyond all precedent in the auuals of banking To prove conclusively that the National liaukiug system ia an unmitigated monopoly, enjoyed by the few to the great embarrassment of the laboring tax-pnying masses of the common people, tha following illustration is submitted : As an iustatice : Mr. A, a merchant possessing a net capital of 50,000, discovers from his balance sheet that his estate is not increasing, he looks through his expense account and sees that his heaviest items are for taxes paid during his recent fisalyear : he also perceives that his name docs not appear in tho report of income?, published by the revenue officer; but he does see the names of his neighbors whose estates are not supposed to be larger than his own, representing thousands of dollars of yearly income. A, like a good business man, contemplates the sitaution, and his enquiring mind soon comprehends the reason why so great a discrcpeney exists between his prosperity aud that of Iiis neighbors. He ascertains that his neighbors have invested their estates iu uon-taxable iutcrcst beaiing boads of the governmeLt and that they are largely interested in National Bank stock. This gentleman casts about to better his condition; he at once resolves to wind up bis mercantile affair and convert his estate into uou-taxable, interest bearing bonds, and thereby, forever lose sight of the remorseless tax collector. Mr. A. now beholds ln firti':c, r rrhtcing ; and iu the midst of hu felicity another bright idea flashes upon his eager mind; he realizes that just one more lilt from his government carries him to the goal of his avaricious ambition. A. has a neighbor Mr. iL, an intelligent business man, owir.ng an estate cf taxable property vorth 50,000. . discerns that his estate is not growing, aud his income, after supporting his family and schooling his children, is only sufficient to pay his taxes. Iieiug anxious to emulate the example of his prosperous neighbors", he converts his tixpaying estate into non-taxable, interest bearing securities, aud immediately accepts a proposition from A. to unite their capital in a joint business. They make an application and get permission from the proper authorities to establish a natioual bank. They deposit with the government their joint 100,000 in bonds, and receive 1)0,000 national bank bilk. Now it would appear reasonable that interest on 90,0u0 of bonds should accruy to the government, to balance tho interest bearing value of the S900U0 in circulating notes advanced by the government, and that A. aud IJ. should receive iutcrcst r.ly on the 10,000 surplus ot their bonds. Hut, we find this is not the policy of (he lioveruiuent. A. and B. arc to have a good heavy interest on every dollar cf their bonds, and arc not allowed to pay a cent of interest on the capital advanced to them by the government. Now, let us take a review of the pecuniary experience of these two men. We found them in the outset worth 50,000 each, yielding incomes sufficient to support their families and pay their taxes. We find them now figuring extensively in the finances of the country; thev wield a joint capital of 190,000 and 100,000 is exempt Irmn taxation, national and State, on which they are paid 5-20 per cent, iu coin, (equal tj 7-30 in currency,) and on the 90,000 they may realize the usual rates of interest, varying in the West and South Irom 10 to 20 per cent.; producing an income of 20,780 per annum, aud to all intents and business purposes, their ostites are found tobe duplicated. Instead of being worth 50,000 each, we find these fortunate men representing estates of 95,000 each, yielding incomes of 10,000 each, and at the same time yielding to the government n great deal less amount of tax than did their estates of ,550,000 each, before they embarked in tho Natioual Banking business. The government, under present rule, is made to be the agent of this enormous system uf injustice to the people.

The plans followe 1 .pursuing my workcre varied to suit circumstances. But when I had decided that a school was needed at any point, I generally visited, during the week, some of the families most likely to be interested and on the Sabbath met the neighbors at their regular appointment if they held any, at which I addressed them on the importance of early religious training for children and induced them if possible to orgauizc a Sunday School aid provide it with such books and papers aud other necessaries as would be likely t ) make it interesting and profitable to those who might attend. But as there were many places where no regular religious services were held at any time, I often found it necessary to visit nearly every family iu the settlement during the week, and to make a special appointment fur a emveuient hour of the Sabbath. Iu this way I frequently succeeded ia organizing a school. But not unfrequcntly whatever plans were adopted, I failed to effect an organization. Iu this way I spent nearly four mouths, from May 2d until August 26th, in exploring Marshall county with the fol lowing results: No. of Schools organized " Teachers in same 11 71 373 Scholars Schools visited or aided Teachers in same Scholars ': Testaments distributed Addresses delivered Familie- visited 10 I o 43 2,S03 191 no GO 200 Ain't of religious reading distributed $227 of which was donated 22,G5 No of miles traveled 992 At an expeuo to the Americau S.

There are also about 1300 Sunday school papers, mostly semi-monthly taken. Of the library books about 2,100 are publications of the American Sunday School Union. The rest are of various societies. There were also organized during the present season, by other parties, at least seven other new schools besides those I organized. Some of them before I came to the county others afterwards, but before I arrived in neighborhoods where they were needed. Qaite a number of these new schools are in neighborhoods where no preaching has been tustained nor any other public religious worship. Inclosing up my wort I have tried to ascertain what proportion of the children and youth of the county are attendants of Suuday Schools. I find that much less than one half the number between the ages of six and twenty one years are reported. Tlie number iu the county between these ages, according to the report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction for the State last year, is 0,150, while the whole number of Sunday School scholars is only 2,G75. This state of things is attributable to various causes, among which arc the lack of schools and the insufficiency of those already iu operation. I have already given a sufficient reascu for the lack of schools, namely, the waut of proper persons to take charge of them. Of the insufficiency of schools much might be said, but as the nature of this report precludes any lengthy remarks, I will simply mention what seems to me the immediate causes of it. These arc the ruinous practices of closing the Schools during the winter season. The lack of intercut in their work on the part of teachers and the careless, ncss of parents in not sending their children to school, and often what is worse-, their positive opposition to the whole Sunday School system. 1 believe there were but two schools in the county kept open last winter outside ot Plymouth aud Bourbon. These schools gave a more eucouraging report than any other old schools in the county. One of them reported five conversions among its attendants last year. Both reported a more thorough course of instruction than other schools. In visiting the old Fchools while in session, whenever other duties would permit, Ig iined a good acquaintance with tlu methods of instruction, and the interest manifested by teachers in their work. As the result of my observations, I am fully convinced that very much needs to be done to stimulate teachers and other officers to greater diligence in their work. On the accomplishment of this hangs in a very great measure the future success of the Sunday School cause in this county. The te tchers must be encouraged and taught in 4yu!o way, or they will not take that interest in their work which is necessary to render it successful. If some means could be devised by which the work of teaching could be rendered more pleasant and the result more apparent, it would be but a very short time until the places now des titute would be supplied with schools. Those schools already in operation would be more generally attended, and the oppo sition whieh now exists would cease forever. This fact is apparent wherever strong schools can be found. In such place? the opposition cither dies out immediately or hides itself and is not seen or felt; and if a new school is necessary within knowing distance of such schools, tho work of setting one in operation is not to be compared with that of starting one near those which are weak ami inefficient. Hence the great anxiety of Sunday School fricuds iu the county, should bo to render more efficicut the schools alreadjr in operation. It gives me pleasure to know that many have felt this and arc doing all they can to accomplish it. Many of tho officers of sohools are waking up to a greater zeal in their work, and aro beginning to enquire what mean3 can be devised to render their j hbor moro successful Although there

Missionary. THE SCAFFOLD. Execution of'Ihrec IXvsme. From the Mobile (Ala.) Time, Sept. 23. The long-expected hanging of the three uegroes, Grant, Robertson and Richardson, took place in the yard of the jail today. The circumstances of the horrible outrage committed by the three negroes, are no doubt familiar to our readers; nevertheless, a short sketch of the case, the arrest of the perpetrators, aud other incidents, will not be out of place. On the 28th of April last, the Community was thrown iuto great excitement, caused by the report that a family living at Bog River, about ten mil:. from the city, and about seveu from Dog River factory, had been most horribly outraged and beaten by a party of negroes. Tho victims were the family of a Mr. Peters, a man of GO years of age, and his family consisting cf a wife and four children. On the evening of the 27th of April, obout 7 o'clock, three i.egroes entered the house and demanded money. Mr. Peters gave them all he had about him, amounting to about 3 50. The negocs swore that he had more, and commenced to ransack the house, breaking up the furniture. They finally seized Mrs. Peters, and took from her person about 1,400 in gold. The daughter of Mr. Peters was then seized and violated. passing from the arms of one to the other; the knives of the villains were called into requisition to aid them in their hellish work. A little girl about three years of azc was dashed against the wall aud severely injured. The boys were held up by the heelj to make them tell where the money w.13. Mr Peters was kuockeddowu and shot at, and mo.it brutally treated. Public indignation was so great at this most horrible outrage that the most sfrenuous efforts were made to arrest the perpetrators. On the 3d of June, on3 of the perpetrators, Ulysses S. Grant, was arrested, aud on the Sth, Jas. Robiuson. and about two weeks afterwards Joe. Richardson was cauIit. They were examined before the Mayor, aud identified by Mrs. Peters and family as the negroes who had committed the outrage, They were accordingly sent to the city court under a heavy bjud. At the June term of that court they were tried, found guilty, and sentenced to be hung on Friday, the 3a of August. Certain parties, having taken an idea iuto their heads that they were innocent, used strenuous efforts to obtain a respite. The Governor granted the respite for four weeks, which expired to-day. The Governor came down himself to investigate the case, aud, feeling satisfied that they were guilty, refused to cxteud another rcsyite, which had lecu asked cf hiui. FORCE ON THE GROUND. A detachment of 50 men of tho 15th infantry and a strong police foice wcro on the ground. The crowd outsido the walls was very large, principally negroes; about 100 per sons were inside bv special permission ot the Sheriff. The housetops, trees, aud high fences in the vicinity were crowded with ca;er lookers on. There was no excitement in the crowd, all being quiet and ordeily. The scaffold was erected in the. north cast portion of the yard fronting west. It was built of rough pine, about 14 feet high, allowing a drop of two and a halt feet. The trap was four by six feet, aud set to be sprung in the usual manner. The prisoners pissed the time in their cells, just before taken out to the scaffold, in praying and singing, several colored preachers being with them. They seemed peuitent. though showing great signs cf trepidation, and appeared to bo perfectly unmanned. At 15 minutes to 1 o'clock the condemned were taken out of the cell, and conducted to a room, where the white ihroud was drawn over them and their arms tied. They seemed resigned to their fate, and while- being robed, clipped their hands and jumped up aud down, praying aud singing. The colored minister who attended them stated that while praying with them in the cell, some one had stolen his hat. Sheriff Granger told him that everything had been dune, by those by those who believed them innocent, to have them pardoned, but without effect. At 5 minutes to one they were conducted from the room to the scaffold, loudly proclaiming their innocence. They ascended the scaffold with a firm step, singing the "IIo'v Ship of Zion," accompanied by a colored minister, Sheriff Granger, and Col. Pinion. The gates at this time were opened and the crowd poured in. After praying a short whilo, they each in a loud voice proclaimed that they were innocent of the

ItichtrdEcri called out to a woman in the crowd tqi tak j good care of that book, aa they Hoped . . . a to ineet on judgment day. At 12 minutes past one o'dock the capa "rere drawn over their eyes by Sheriff lirauger, ana in one ruiuuie aiiemaiu. the trap was sprung by him, and the condemned were dangling iu the air. Grant died easy and without a struggle. Rcbin'son struggled for an iustant. and then ! hun? motionless. Richardson diel in great agony, drew himself up, and his btruggles lasted for about three minutea. The crowd behaved in a moat orderly manner; there was no disturbance, tnd after the hanging they dispersed peaceably. After hanging for about 20 minutes, the bodies were cut down and pronounced dead by the surgeon. Thus closed the last act of the Dos River outrage. From the National Intelligencer. Tlie Situation In Tcxat. A northern-born citizen of Western' Texas gives us some accouut of the condition of things in that State, which applies in a greater or less degrei to all the reconstructing States. The freedmen have been less regular in their work thi3 season and the crops have suffered in consequence. A chief cau-e of this unsteadiness lias been their interest iu politics. At the busiest season the' would leave everything for days together to attend political meetings, and in the loyal leagues they have heard so much about confiscation for their benefit that they really expect soon to be made rich without work. Their leaden are generally the worst c!as3 of white, men who do not scruple to use the grossest deceptions, cr any other dishonest means to obtain power, who were the bitterest secessionists wheu secession was popular, but arc now ready to play the part of original Unionists, and take the hardest ironclad oaths without flinching. The white population of Texas is more than four times the colored, but reistrptioc is io thfi hands of the mean whites for tfce JnCil part, aud they have made the disfranchisement altogether more sweeping than the reconstruction acts justify; so much 19 that the negroes will be in the cajcritj, and will control the Constitutional Convention. The political prospect has a depressing effect upon business, and all are in doubt about the future. The white men are willing t-j submit to reconstruction but they object to disfranchisement,especially to the illegal extension of it by the boards of registration. But there id I uo appeal, and they sec no hope of relief, and no prospect for tne future much such miserable confusion and strife ai prevail in Tennessee, with constant apprehension that it may terminate in chronic hostility of races. -aMrs. President Lincoln. The New York World has the following curious paragraph : It ha3 been currently reported iix thi city during tho past few days, that Mrs" Abraham Liucoln, wife of tL2 late President, has been since Saturday last, io a3 up-town hotel, under the assumed name of Mrs. Clarke. Ilc-r visit to this city, it it alleged, is for tho purpose of disposing of female wearing apparel and jewelry, in order to replenish a nearly exhausted purse, htr present iucome amounting to only about 1,700. These articles cost at least 7,000, but the Rroadway firm to whom they are consigned do not expect to realize more than about 1,000, which invest ed in the State of llliuois, where she novfr resides, will yield herau additional income of 400. Conspicuous among these trappings, are a set of line Russian sables, sev cral lace and India shawl?, a point lace dress, and parasol cover, and a solitaire diamond ring. Mrs. Clarke or Mrs. Lin coin, seemed anxious to preserve her tncojnitot judging from the directions given to her agcLts.and evidently shrank from the inevitable notoriety in thus publicly parting with the souvenira cf her White House days. The IMoiisrh Hoy. The young man who leaves the farm for the merchant's desk or the doctor's office, thinking to ennoble his toil, makes a sad I TT a m mistake, lie passes, by that step, troui independence to vassalage. lie barter a uatural for an artificial pursuit, and he must be a slave of the caprice cf custom ers and the thicance of trade, cither to support himself or to acquire a fortune. f he more artificial a man's pursuit, the more debasing it is, morally aud physically. To test it, contrast the merchant's clerk with the plough boy. The lormer may have the most exterior polish, but the latter, under his rough outside, possesses the truer stamina. He is the freer, franker, happier and nobler man. Would that young men might judge of the dignity of labor by its usefulness and man lines?, rather than by the superficial glosses it wears. Therefore we never see a man's nobility in his kid gloves aud toilet adornments, but in that sinewy arm, whose outline, browned by the sun, betokens a hardy, honest toilet, under whose Farmer or mechanics vest the kinglicst heart may beat. aaj HQ4 af A daughter-iu law of Sterling Price diel on tho same day that he expired, and tho funeral obsequies of both were combined.
