o^7”The Vincennes Gazette has hit upon the best illustration of the queer Ways of those papers that oppose Lecomton and support its nominations, that we have yet seen. It ■ays they are like Munchausen's dog, who eplit himself in two by running against something one day, and in haste to patch up the dog, the veracious Barron put him together bo that on the one side the legs pointed down and on the other up. The animal turned over and went on its upside legs when he found it hard going on the others. The Terre Haute Journal And the New Albany Ledger are capital specimens of the “patched dog” species. {£s”Montgomery, the Pennsylvania member of Congress, who got hi« name into good company with the Crittenden amendment, and had a chance for enviable fame, has dirtied himself hy returning, like the dog, to his < pmit. He has mdde his peace with the tdayery Democracy, receives a clear field on that side lor re-election,-and will be warmly opposed and we trust defeated by the Republicans. Elizabeth Parker, the oldest person in the State of Maine, died in Durham, Cumberland county, on the 22d ult. Her age was nearly 115 years. She was born in 1743, Z2> years before the declaration of Independence. Till she was about 110, 6he possessed bodily vigor sufficient to enable her to work in the garden, an employment she took great delight in. 1 ., Londonderry (Ireland; Sentinel of the, 28th of May r says: ‘Died—Oh the 3d inst- Mrs. Ilemohill, of Straw, near Newtownstewart, in hett 84th year. She was the eldest daughter of Mr. Wm. M 7 M’Farland,. of Leardet, who married Maria, eldest daughter of the late Mr. Andrew Buchanan, of Tattyreagh, near Omagh, and. was first c main to the Hon" James Buchanan, now President of America.” j (ps"The New Albany Tribune says that an affray caused by liquor occurred at Gdsport, on Friday evening last', between two brothers niiriied Murphy, in which one struck the other across the neck with an ax. cutting ■the jugular vein and killing him instantly. Theanurdered man had been but a short time .out of the Penitentiary. The murderer was arrested and put in jail. ffir'A severe storm visited Minneapolis, Minnesota, on-the Ist inst. The wind blew a perfect hurricane, upsetting chimneys, prostrating crops, and doing other damage. The steeple of’ the ndw Baptist Church was blown down, and the edifice was otherwise damaged to the amount of one thousand dollars. - J OCr'A Lady named Temple, who is well known.in the fashionable regions df Belgravia, lias discovered a remedy tor stuttering. It is simply the act of reading in a whisper, and gradually augmenting the whisper to a louder toil London Pager. son of Mr. Fou'd, the French minister of state, lately fell into love with M’lle Valerie, an actress, married her privately, stole a million and a half.of francs from his father, and ran away to England with his new wife. The affair was the talk of Paris, but the papers were forbidden to mention it. o^7“The Brook vide American says that a few days ago a Mr. James Maxwell, residing in that \ feinity, shot himself through the head with a gun, killing himself instantly.i He was a quiet maq. a good neighbor, and well situated. No cause for the fatal act has been ascertained. 077“ A few' nights ago a fiend placed cross ties in a cattle guard on the Wabash Valley Road which threw the engine, tender, and one passenger cur from the track. Fortunately,- no lives were lost. A man who so jeopardize tbe lives of hundreds of human beings should not be permitted to run at large. Fountain ledger says that on Wednesday a little son c f Stephen Fagg was killed instantly by the accidental discharge of a gun with which an older brother was playing. The entire charge passed through the child’s head. # violent thunder storm that passed over Minerva, Ohio, on Sunday last, the 27th alt., killed three persons and injured many others. A daughter of Mr. Bayard was struck by lightning and Jtiiled, two female teachers in the Sabbath School were killed, and .several houses and barns were struck and much shattered. ') celebration 'of the 4th «pf July last Monday, at South Bend, was a brilliant affair. There was, says the Register, from 10,000 ta-12,000 people present." The oration of Hon. Schuyler Colfax is spoken of very highly fey all who heard it. The Lafayette Courier disovery of the -body of a young Afee Rljne, of that place, who, it was supposed, nad drowned himself in the Wabash, in a fit of despondency. Iwo steam boilers in Manchester Print Works, five miles from Providence, Rhode Island, exploded on Thursday evening, killing three men. Loss to the premises $5,000. OiT'The store of Messrs. Tousey &, Byran> in Indianapolis, was broken open on Saturday night last, and about $1,300 worth of silks and other costly goods, taken out. No trace ot the burglars. o^7”Abner Smith lately postmaster at Northfield, Boon gounty, Indiana, has been convicted ol robbing the mails, and sen-! tenced to ten years’ confinement in the State prison. Mann, President of Antioch College, Ohio., has been elected President of the faculty and professor of Ethics in the North Western Christian University at Indianapolis. » 80 - Three little boys named Eddy Fentress, Eugene Monroe and Perry Watson, were drowned at So ymour , Indiana, on Sunday last, while bathing in the river at that place. the celebration of the sth in Waupun, Wisconsin, there were fourteen oldsoldiers who were in the last war, whose ages were from 64 up to 78, ranging between those extremes. A. H. Reeder, ex-Governor of Kansas, will probably be the Anti-Lecomp-ton candidate in the Thirteenth Congressional District Pennsylvania.

Mr. Cobb is an independent* candidate (Democrat,) for the Senate in the district of Martin and Lawrence. Colonel Pepper is an independent candidate for the Senate in Ohio and Switzerland counties. The Colonel is a Democrat. A Singular Way of PuniSung a Murderer. — We copy the following. from the Paris (Ky.)
