From every portion of the great North there comes tidings of great joy toRepublicans. White Mr. Lincoln is increasing in strength continually, our foes are dis tracted, divided and weakened. The corruptions of the Democratic party have cri ed to heaven, the echo has come back to earth and the people have heard it. All CVer this great valley the heart of this Empire the sovereign masses see the ne cessity of arresting the downward tendency of public affairs. Tie ptoplc are clam oroua for a change. The Democratic party ha9 become bold in its dishonor, shame less ia its policy and .oercenary in all its acts. The people whose government this is are aroused, aud they will burl from place and power the last remnant of this corrupt party. It does seem as though Douglas is an in strument in hands of Providence to dig rupt and overwhelm the party to which he belongs. More corrupt than his compeers, be willingly resorts to any and all means to advance his selfish ends, and falls, cov ered all over with tie wreck aDd ruin he has made. The name Democracy wooed and won thousands and tens of thousauds, but its prestige is gone its potency is be ing dispelled. Republicanism, redolent and glorious, is on the advance, and will, and must triumph. But we must not re main inactive, we mut not dream of fan cied security until possession is ours. A wily and desperate foe, one that is corrupt to a proverb and reckless to desperatiou is around us, and wj must be on the alert. There is a little over three months of labor. unceasing, untirin; labor ahead cf us. Are our institutions worth the continuoueffort of three months ? If so, keep "WidAwake" until the roar of the Republican cannon will echo from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and wherever else there is a free mas. Wherever there is a neighborhood that inot thoronghly organized, attention should be immediately given to it. Wherever there is an individual who does net füllt understand the great doctrines of the Re publican party, let documents be forth with placed in his hands so that he ma read and learn. Wherever there is a pre cinct in which Rrpcblicaoism has not been taught, Lave spVakrs sent, who can ex plain and make clear the great docinn. which we believe to be right. Every where, aad at all times, we conjure th. friends of free labor, free anil, free speech and freedom, to be on the alert. Organise everywhere, and keep the organ izations actively at work, until il.e last vote is placed in the ballot-box in November There should be nothing like cessation no stopping until victory is inscribed upon every banner, and the shout of triumph goes cp from every Club room, from every town-hip, from every city, from evert coanty and every State. Then, and not until then, let as stop our efforts. "If little labor, little are our gains; Man's fortunes are according to his pains Mr. Bates is Tnx South.

Wisconsin, July 16.1&60: Editor Express: Have you any Democrats lo spare down id Hoosierdots? They are mach wanted op this way to make up a fight. Tbe contest is now like mowing thin grass, our principles acd arguments are so ponderous tbey make our shoulders ache for want of something to swing them against. If you have aoy shatn Democrats there to spare, do send them along, by "flatboat" or "rail," or a foot, any 'way so tbey get here. There is a good old rutin up here, nearly ninety years old, who, for the last four years, haw inserted in bis morning and evening devotions, this petition, "Oh Lord.confonnd the devices of slave holders and oppresaers." That prayer has been literally answered, for who ever saw a more confounded set f fellows in aoy Audo Domini, since that great Democratic Convention wa broker, up, for the same reasons. on the plaint of Shinar? I feel a strange combinatiion of ludicrous and pitiful emotious as I look upon our Democratic brethren in their present plight. It is one of those cases when you want to look sober at one corner of yoor mouth, and grin at the other. Cut I don't know, really, as they are to be pitied, for the courre of their leaders, for the last eight years, has been villainous, and they who ill follow bad leaders must expect to bring up beyoud the bound of virtuous sympathy The present condition of the Democratic party, with its varied antecedents and im pending destiny, rs an instructive-lesson, aad when Bancroft gets ready lo stuff its skin, and hang it up to dry in history, it will be fouud on that row of pegs that hold up the world'a "awful warnings." Your predecessor io the Express once compared the parly to a big snake, with its bead in the South and its tail in the North. But since that ws written a new bead has grown on the tail, and in its struggles to crawl both vays it has cut itself in two on the sharp line of Mason and Dizou, and we now heboid it in tie sad condition of the Awphisbxna of Cotton Matber It is amusing to see the desperate efforts at courage put forth by the Douglas men hereabouts. Their utter ruin as a faction is as plain as anything c.tn be before it actually Lappens; s.nd yet, true to the tac tics of their leader, they persist in cover ing up the barrenness sf their hopes by the tol illusive and groundless assertions Why is Douglas at the foot of the hill so !ooo( n ny. Dt-cause ne turned over so rapidly. Now thai he is forever at rest then, let us stick up a board and chalk his epitaph: Here lies Steve Dourtas; let your tsars he dried. No mortal lies soa(, or erer lied. Most of the Democrats here are in a pain fjl condition of suspense. Like the boys "in swimming," -with their clothes stolen from the bank, their attitude is a nervous ly amphibious one, ashamed to get out and cant't stay in. They remind me of flock of chickeus the day after weaning They look about auxious and hucgry, but none of the many clucks they hear has the old motherly sound. A prominent lud intelligent Democrat here, one of the Buchanan electors of this State in 1S5G. said to me the other day, "If my vote, sir, would elect any of the gentle men up for the Presidency, I woulJ'nt walk to th Cou't House to drop it in." He spoke iu hyperbole, no doubt, but the remark indicates the state of discouragement amon the intelligent and leading men of the party; and right here will be found one of the causes of the great vieI lory that awaits us, the lack of stimulus. and then fore tli ; lack of effort, on the part of the Democratic filce neekers, who, by centrifugal disruption, of the party, hate been thrown beyund the scent of the pubtie treisury The Republicans had a great rally in Beloit, iu this State, last Friday. Untold thousands congregated at the call, and the scene surpassed ihe great Taylor rally at Fort Harrison hi 1 11 IS, in enthusiasm, if not in numbers. The Wide Awakes from various cities 12 this State, and in North ern Illinois, were on hand, and showed us where the young men are located in this battle. Speeches fron. Senator D.olittle, Governor Randall, and Carl Schurz, plowed up the fresh earth, aod did a thorough subsoil work. By the way, I hope you will make an effort to git Mr. Schurz to visit Terre Haute durind the campaign, though I believe early all the Germans of your locality have di-corcred the humbug of sham Democracy, and attached themselves to the truth. But a spei ch from that wonderful boy philosopher and orator would do none of you any harm. He takes up all the political sophistries of the dsy, and takes them apart, and lays them aside, as skil fully and coo.iy a Freeman does a watch The gathering ui Jul v , more by th ceneral en tfiii-iasm than by the ability of the speeches, left the impreiiou on every mind that an iireUtib!e reactionary and reformatory tide had set iu, in the publi mind, which no Canute, nor Hardicanut edicts, nor Buchauao protests, will t able to stay. The fact is to change th figure to one more appropriate the o!d rail splitter will be sent to Washington to pick the flies out of the giuat molasses po there, aud y i shall see I hem next Spring in all parts of the country, crawliug up on every stump aud hillock, to dry their i.asty -elves. It is rernai kable how the popularity of Lincoln penetrates societj . Every lip seems to be balancing his name. Hi nomination was one of thoe h-ppy event which illustrate the effect of i-l.m co n bined with tact. An sble, sound and hon est man, takfo fres h from the hearth of hi own quiet home, has attracted the attention ofthat part of the people who do the vol ing and pay the taxes. They have exam ined him, hare endorsed Lim, and the I question is already settled Lincoln's nam seem 10 be mixed up iu men's A thoughts it is familiar, his name is no cold, distant aod grand, but gVm'al and companionable, and does uol stop io th admiration of the people, but reaches to their Iocs. Even the auctioneers that -harp sight ed, non-coruinittal tribe of cent lernen find it for their isterests to weave Lincoln's name into their harangues to give better currency to their wares. For example: "Gentlemen, this is a remarkable pair of suspenders," the spriug ard elasticity ia astonishing. Why, I could stretch them a mile if my .trms were only long enough. Six shilling, five, four, three, and if any gentleman wishes to take them tit two hillings, why here they are. What ia the matter with you? Why I could'nt sell yoa the Btshnell House at a quarter of a dollar, and throw in the landlord. Two shillings, Uq shillings, two shil lings, two let ne tell you something," putting hit arms akimbo, "this la the kind of auipenders Old Abe wore when he split rails, and " "I'll take them." "Gods at two shillings. Ifcrt is ao'Ak

Now, gentlemen, do be decent, and not go with your trowsers dropping off any longer! Why, I should thick that the gable end of some poor-house had burst out last bight two 6hilliogs! two shillings ! But I was telling yoa about Old Abe; well, harvest was pressing and he wanted to get his rails done, so he bought him two pairs of these suspenders, at a dollar a pair, and they jerked him along so fast from lo to log, that he split a m i-I 1-i-o-n of rails a day, and piled them up; more than a man could count in a week, the greatest . day's work that was ever done since the creation two shillings! two shillings! This Slate, according to the figuring of moderate calculators, will give Lincoln 15,000 majority. The farmers are beginning lo harvest their wheat an over abundant crop. Old mother Earth is groining under the load she is brir-ging to market. Yours, S. O The Vincennes Gazettte, speaking of a speech recently made by R. J. Ryan in that place ssys : "The Hon. Richard J. Ryan, of Indianapolis, in his famous speech here on Saturday night, called Ab Lincoln "an old ion of a bitch." His excuie for applying this very chaste and elegant language to Mr. Lincoln, was the hallooing of a boy "Hurrah for Lincoln" ou the outside of the crowd which he was aldress iog. The buy did wrong, but it was uo excuse for the ituperative, slanderous and dirty epithet ua--d by Ryan. This is almost equal to calling "Honest old Abi" a traitor, and to the recent asser tion of Hon. Mr. Rhett of S. C, and en dorsed by the State Sentinel, that Hanni bal Hamlin a mullatto, actually having ne gro blood in Iiis veins. What next? The Vernon Banner tells the following .... . ... story, wbicn is good enough lo ue true, u it isn't On last Saturday as the train was com ing down from Columbus, where Cassius M. Clay had been speaking, while Bill Daily was talking to a gentleman who had been a Democrat but did not recognize Daily, in reply to some remark of the latter's concerning the race for Congress, ihe gentleman esid : "When a party bring out such fellow as Bi. 1 Daily, I aio done with it." Daily had a little bu siness just then at the other end of the car, and on inquiry the gentleman found that he had been talking with that same "Bill Daily." Pears. Bro. Lingle of the Lafayette Courier, has been presented with a sprig of a pear tree, which contained within the length of- three inches a cluster of ten pears. We thought we had beat all Hoo ierdom in a prolific limb of pears, having gathered a cluster of fix from a sprig of the same length, but we knock under, and propose to Bro. Lingle, to pair off with him, by having him send us a pair of his peart that we may pare and eat them. Or if he will send us a couple of pairs of pear we will send him a pair of pears and let him corn-pare them provided they are not im pair ed by transportation. Adam and I'.vt. The paintings of Adam and Eve in the garden, and the expulsion fro.n the garden, now on exhibition at the Universalist church, in this city, are, perhaps, the finest specimens of artist ic tallent. ever brought to this city. They arc full of merit aod should be visited by every lover of art in the city. The Expulsion is a wonderful creation, and depicts the awful agony of our first mother, when the terrible reality burst upon her senses that she had lost Paradise, and the protecting despair of Adam when he found the light of heaven shut out from him. It is masterly, and both are worthy the patronage of our citizens. , ,,. i... , A Modest Max. Senator Douglas has the extreme modesty, to travel about the country nddres$ing public meetings. His programme has been publishe 1, that all his movements 1 -ay be known. This is, we believe, the first time a Presidential candidate has ever felt it necessary to take the stump. Well, it is, perhaps, best that he show himself once more to the people, that they may see how his eat tail hangs. He will be ashamed to appear after November. O The Asbury Chapel, will soon be finished, of the repairs it has been undergoing for the last several weeks. The fresco painting by Mr. Gulic, we are sorry to say, does that geullenaan's reputation no credit. In fact it is a very bad job, and deserves no compliment from our pen. Tha graining of the pulpit and lips by William Barr, in iratuiution of oak, is admirably done there is no better grainer than Mr. Barr anywhere. Altogether, however, the church is much improved. IT Mr Voorhces will eloquently maintain the doctrines of popular sovereignty and non intervention, and advocate the election of the representative s of those prin eiple, Douglac and Johusou. Sit te Sentinel. He will maintain the doctrine of Popular Sovereignty will he? Jj" The Fort Wajne Times, says : Mr. Fitch, son of Senator Fitch' and U. S. District Attorney for Illinois, is at the Rockhili House. He is rallying the Breck irhdge men, ar.d cooling the ardor of the Douglas men. The Administration is resolved on beating Douglas, and they will do it. IT Gen. Milton Stspp, well known to the old citizens of Indiana, who has been living in Texas for a few years, informs his friends that he has declared for Lin coin and Hamlin in spite of the latitude lie finds himself in. m LT A gentleman authorizes us to bet J..VM) that Douglas will not carry Indiana Oh! ye who are strong io the faith will you take It. N.A. Ledge. Won't soiDxof our enthusiastic Douglas men tike that bet? Here is now a chance to show your faith by your works. .- O Senator Pugh of Ohio, in his speech at Indianapolis, said '"that Douglas had by Lis persooal honor been lifted to the highest place a man can attain to." It may be so, but if so, it is a case of I if ling a very heavy load by a very weak thread. Sensible at Last. Hon . Geo. E. Pugh, told the people at Indianapolis, the other day, that he felt the crises was loo great for him, and be was going to quit being politician. The people of Ohio, last winter, prepar ed the way for hit quitting by electing a successor. I The office of the Pulaski Demo erst, is ofered for sale; cause, not Douglasilea enough in the county who can read to support it. We guess there will be a great deal of that kind of tbiog done before Christmas. IS! tT Mr. 31. Hickcox withdraws his name from before the people of this coanty, as candidate for Sheriff.
The Correspondent of the Journal and C 91. Clay.
Perhaps we ocgLt to have noticed the article, in relation to Cassius M. Clay, which appeared in the Journal on the I8ih inst., at an earlier date. It is evidently the production of one who hates Mr. Clay very much, and who has sought this occasion to both villify and misrepresent him. He pours out a few vials of his wrath to but little purpose, and attempts to give leaf in thahistorv of a man, whose every actis as familiar to the people, as household words. We regard but one assertion of the writer of the article now uuder consideration, worthy our notice. Speaking of Mr. Clay as a Kentuckian he says, his acts there, "proves that the great Cassius, the expo nent of Renublican doctriuea. wa deter mined to abolixh slavery," &c. This is the ground of his offending the basis of all opposition to him the reason why he is 60 odious to the Democracy lie, says the correspondent, is in fa Vor of abolishing slavery, and for that he is most vilely abued. The reader must recollect that Casius M. Clay is a ci'.izeu of Kentucky was born and raised and always lived in that State is an extensive properly holder there, and has been a large slaveholder there. He is a Kentuckian aud has always lived n Kentucky soil and among Kentucky m-titntion. Has he not a right then, as a citizen of a slave State, lo express an opinion in favor of the abolition of slavery? Has he not a right, as a cm ien of a slave State, to be an abolitionist? Is not this the great doctrine of Popular Sovereignty that the people of the States nd the Territories have a right to regulste their domestic institutions to suit themselves? Has the time come when a citizen of a Stale shall not he permitted to express his opinion in relation to the do mestic institutions of the State in which he lives T Is Cassius M Clay to be censured if he is in favor of abolishing alavcryvS'n the State of Kentucky T Popular Sover eign Democrats, is tins the position you HOW assume, that an individual, livm in a slave State, is debarred the privilege of opposing the institution of human ervi lüde? Popular Sovereignty is then the right of the people to do as they please, entertain such opinions as they please, discuss such subjects as they please and do as they please generally, provided al ways, they do not touch the subject of ho man servitude that they do not touch the Democratic nigger. That is a sacred thing and no ruthless hand should be permitted to disturb it. This is a new phase in the doctrine of Popular Sovereignty, and we hope the star correspondent of the Jourua will make the most of it. A .ew Chapter. A few days before his nomination ai the candidate of the Douglasites for the Vice Presidency of the United States, to wit, on the 23th day of May. I860, Herschel V Johnson wrote a letter on current political topics, from which we cut the following choice paragraph, for the consideration of the squatter sovcreigusof Indiana : I believe that it IS THE RIGHT OF THE SOUTH TO DEMAND and the DU TY OF CONGRESS TO EXTEND PRO TECTION TO PERSONS AND PROPER TY OF EVERY KIND (INCLUDING SLAVERY) IN THE TERRITORIES DURING THEIR TERRITORIAL STATE This is no new opinion. I ADVOCATED THE DOCTRINE AS FAR BACK AS 184S IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES. If you have sny curiosity to see the argumeul, I rele you lo my speech on the Oregon bill, de livered 7th of July of that year, and repor ted in the Congressional Globe. How tin just, therefore, are the insinuations icith uhieh you intertprrse ana interlard your editorial comments that all are in favor of squatter sov ereignty' who happen not to agree iciA the seceder from the Charleston Convention ! I REPEL THE INSINUATION SO FAR AS IT MAY BE INTENDED TO APPLY TO ME COME FROM WHAT GUAR TER IT MAY, AND PLEAD MY OWN RECORD IN VINDICATION." Here now is a popular sovereignty man with a vengeance a dyed-in-the-wool po pular sovereignty man a popular sovere ignty roan that we read of in the Terre Haute Journal and papers of the ilk. We wUh the Douglasites of the Northwest much joy io voting for him 1 Why, the man is more fanatical than Yaucy I Bu hurrah for Douglas and JOHNSON I Indian October Election. The October Election in Indiana is mere important than any which has ever occur red in mat tuaie. A Uovernor, Lieut Governor, a Treasurer, Auditor, and Se cretary of State, and other State officers with members of Congress and a Legiala lure, are to be elected. Upon the Legis! a ture will rest the duty of electing a Uni ted States Senator, and of districting the State for Congressional and Legislative purposes. Anxious that it may be carried by the Republicans, we take the liberty o saying a few words to our friends of that State. We believe that a majority of the voters of Indiana are tired of Democratic mis rule, and are ready to shake it off, if pro perlv aroused to action It is true the Democracy are divided as never before, and a victory over them would seem of easy accomplishment; but herein is the danger. Although as to the candidates for the rreMdency this division exists and cannot be reconciled, an ef fort is making lo unite on the State ticket and on members of Congress and the Leg islalure. As strange as it may seem, it is urged that the friends of Breckinridge should support Mr. Hendricks for Govern or, while that gentleman was so ardent in the support of Douglas as to go to Haiti more to aid his nomination 1 Inconsi tant us this may be, it is possible that, to a great extent, it mav be carried out. It is not safe f r our Republican friends to rely too much on the divisions and Con sequent weakness of ouropponents. Their etlorts shoui-i be as earnest and as energetic as though uii such reason for that weakness existed The Republican cause needs bat lo he placed 111 Us proper light before the peo Cle to secure their approval. This should e done by the distribution of newspapers and documents, and by public speaking. More can be done by holding meet ings in every school district than -by spend ing time and money in getting up large County Conventions for display. People go to school district or township meetings to be informed; but, when they go lo County Mass Meetings, it is but to in crease the nun. her, which gets up a rival ry between parties, and does not result in any permanent good. The complete organization of every township in the Stale wi 1 secure a Repub lican triumph. May we aot ask that no time be lost ir. bringing about such an or ganization? Now is the time to work. More can now be done in one day than in weeks hereafter. Succeed now, and Iudi ana in all future time, will be numbered among the Republican States, where she long since ought to have bsn. N. Y.

The Deatu of Joseph Gales. The tele graph announced the death of Joseph Gales, whose name associated with that of bis brother-in-law, W. W. Seaton has been identified for half a century with the National Intelligencer. Mr. Gales was born in Eckington. near Sheffield, Eogland. April 10, 1766, and when when seven years old he accompanied his father Joseph Gales to the Uni
ted Slates. Mr. Gales tue elder was a ninler and bookseller in Sheffield, and there published the Sheffield Register. He sympathized mo strongly with the French Revolution, that he sold bis paper in 1793 to James Montgomery, the poet, and came to Philadelphia, where for two or three years be published the "Independent Ol zettecr." the first paper that presented shorthand reports of Csngressional de batet and proceedings. In 1790 he sold this paper and removed 10 Raleigh, N. C, founding the"Kegiter. He died iu 1841 . His son, whose decease 1 this morning announced, was educuted at the University of North Carolina,' and ' then learned the art of priutmg. In 1807 he settled at Wasbiuglon as the assistant of S II Smith, who bought the "Independent Ga etteer from his father, and removed it to he Capital, changing its name lo "The National Intelligencer." Mr. Gales be came Mr, Smith's partner, aud in 1 til 0 his successor as publisher of the Tri-Weekly Intelligencer. In lcl2 Mr. seaton was ad mitted to partnership, aud in 1613 the daily publication of the Ii.telhireiicer was commence. . Cin. Gax. The Harmonious in PknnstlVania. The war of Ihe tactions in Pennsylvania is waxing hot aud bitter. The rent runs through the middle of the parly, aod bets are being made as to which party will poll the most votes. An attempt was made the other day to hold a Convention of both wings in Col umbia county, one of the old strongholds of the Democracy. But the irrepressible conflict wn too strong for the cohesive at traction of public plunder, and the Con vention was rent in twain. Some 50 dele gates pronounced for Breck and 28 for Dug. Two conventions were then organ ized. At the Breckinridge meeting C. D. Mur ray made a speech, in the course of which he ia reported to have said: Again I ask, who are responsible for all this? and again 1 answer, the Douglas men. They are the fellows who "have been and gone and done it." In the language of the poet, they have done a work which "Not Jove's ire. Nor sword, nortimc, nor fire. Can make undone." Tbey have nominated Stephen A Douglas, aad now let them make the most of him. As for roe. I'm for Breckinridge. The Vax Buren Fabcc No. 2. The Wooster Republican aays "Stephen A. Douglas now occupies much the same position that Van Buren did in 1843. Van Buren did not get a single electoral vote, neither will Douglas secure a single one. Van Buren was warmly supported by his friends and obtained a large number of votes in the North. So is Douglas sup ported by his friends and camp followers. and he bids fair to obtain a very respectable vote iu the North, but by no possibil ity can he get a single electoral vote. The few States, such as Indiana and New Jersey, in which Douglas would have had some chance of carrying the electoral vote, will be thrown to Lincoln by the large vote that will be given to Mr.Bieckioridge. And as to the South, Douglas has no more chance to carry a single Slate there than Van Buren had. .The Douglas men al ready begin to feel the weight they carry, and are flocking in hundreds to Breckin ridge or Lincolu. In fact the Douglas strength is fast wasting all over the country and we should not be surprised if his friends would yet consent to take him off the ticket." O Hon. James O. Putuam, one of th most prominent and influential Americans of New York, io a recent letter to a meet iug of Republican! in Wyoming county said "It is undoubtedly true that Mr. Bell has the respect and confidence of every man of American antecedents, but of what earthly service can 20,000 or 30,000 votes be to him in New York? No more than so many saloons to his shadow. 1 hive endeavored to study the persona aud political character of Mr. Lincoln. have read his debates in the Senatoria canvass with Mr. Douglas, and bisocca tional speeches elsewhere, and I say with out qualification, that, in bold, logica manly eloquence, in sincerity aod truth fulness of character, and in a lofty scorn of all the arts and tricks of petty men, h seems to be the legitimate successor of Henry Clay." More Aid. The Winona Minn) Re publican states that Dr. Charles Benson has announced his separation from th Douglas Squatters, and declared his inten (ion bi support Abraham Lincoln. Dr Heiiton says "one might as well vote for woman as to support Douglas, who is bu a cat's paw in the hands of the South to throw the election into the House or Sen ale. Iu re no ui but a thorough going pro slavery man can stand even the shadow of a chance. Douglas cannot be elected Breckinridge must not be; therefore it is the duty of every patriotic citizen who is opposed to, the extension of' pro slavery rule, or of the conliuance of a corrupt ad ministration, to cast his vote directly for Abiaham Lincoln, and thus put a stop at oi.ee to the sectional bickerings which now divide the Democratic party aad dia tract the country." Tennessee. Hon. Horace Maynard, o Tennessee, spoke at Kuoxville on the 7th No candid man, he said, believed that there was a remote chance of electing cither Douglas or Johnston, while he re garded the chances of L'ncoln as decidedly good for an election, but would deplore such an event. He urges a union on Bel and Everett. The Nashville Bauner announces that Hon. M. P. Gentry, Hou. Charles Ready Hon. Barclay Martin, and Sterling R.Cock rill, Esq., of Tennessee, have left the Bell and Everett ranks, aod declared for Breck icridge and Lane. A Sakoamon County Farm. There is a farm of 12,000 acres, twelve miles east of Springfield, Ills. This farm belongs to Mr. Hamilton, of Kentucky, and is divided as follows, 1,400 acres wheat; 400 acres rye; 1,200 seres corn. The wheat field was entered last week, and in a few days more the entire crop will be in market. We un dcrstand lhat 20,000 bushels have been sold to a Chicago house at $1 25 per bash el, to be dilivered iu that city immediate ly. This is equal to $1 08 on the farm. .. The conviction is becoming general lhat the electoral vote of New York will be cast for Douglas aod John son. -Journal. None but an idiot could allow auch a conviction to enter bis mind, as every sen sible man must know that New York will give Lincoln and Hamlin a clean majority of 50 ,000 over Douglas.

Jones wss called to the chair, and Henry II. Braach appointed Secretary. On motion, of Craig, the President ap pointed a committee, consisting of II. D. Washburn, Robt. E. Craig, and Jas. Jordao, to draft resolutions expressive of the sentiments of the Newport bar, upon Hon. Satnl. F. Maxwell's retiring from th ; bench f the Common Pleas Court of Vermillion coanty. The committee reported the following resolutions, which were unanimously! adopted. j Whreas. bv the rerent rhanire in this I .. , -j - o - judicial District, the county of Yermillion will soon be deprived of the judicial services of Hon. Saml. F. Maxwell, present and past Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of this and Parke eonoty therefore. Resolved, That in his taking leave of us, we deem it our duty, as members of the Bar, to pay him the justly merited tribute of testifying to his urbanity and social disposition as a iriena, nis tony ana nigo bred mincer as a gentleman, and his up Tightness and true qualifications as a Judge as displayed in his intercourse (for the past seven years) with the Bar, and citizens, and in the impartiality and promptness with which he has decided the differences of our people as they have officially been presented to him. Resolved. That we feel a lively aod last ing interest in the welfare of our friend and brother, Hon. Saml. F.

Maxwell responded in a brief but appropriate address where upon ihe raeetiug adjourned. D.M. JONES, Pres't. Hkxry H. Brasch, Sec'y. In the Pocket. We made a flying visit to Evansville on Monday, stopping at Via cennes for a few hours by the way. The "old post" we are glad to see is improving rapidly, and the people are rousing them selves in more respects than one. While they are progressing in city improvements. they are also progressing in political af fairs. We never saw the people of old Knox so alive to the necessity of hurling from power this corrupt Democracy which has so long disgraced our nation and corrupted our people. An immerse crowd congregated on Saturday at Vincennes, to hear Cassius M. Clay, and all were delighted with his speech. Flags were flying all over the city those bearing the names of Lincoln and Hamlin largely predominating. At every station from here to Evansville, the prevailing sentiment seems to be for the Republican leaders. At Princeton we found a number of old acquaintances, who we knew in "fifty six" warm Filmore men, who are now equally warm for Lincoln aod Hamlin, and we heard of numerous others in the same position. At Evansville the Republicans are in the finest spirits we ever saw a 6et of men They are very confident of carrying old Vanderburgh hitherto the gihralter o Democracy in the Pocket for Lincoln and Hamlin this season. They had a rousing meeting of "Wide Awakes" on Monday night, and to night tbe city will be alive with people to see and hear that noble champion of Freedom Cassias M. Clay Judge Law's chances to get to Congress are "growing small by degrees and beau ifully less" each day Our much honored fellow citizen Mr. Albert Lange, has been among the people of the Pocket, and has made his mark broad and legible. His competitor is following in his wake but he looks chop follea exceedingly The friends of .Freedom bo ay listea for a joyou. report from ihe first Congressional District. ZT The telegraphic correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, writting from Wash ingtou, says : The N. Y. Herald, having by turns supported everybody , is at last out for Breckinridge and Lane. How the Bell people must feel I It lias discovered at last that Douglas won't do to lie to, and in its issue cf to day says : "We believe that the people are sharper tLau the poli ticians: that the former understand the true positiou of things, and are willing to act upon the question without regard to the leaders of either faction. The rapid spread of the Breckinridge movement in this State and the present attitude of Penn sylvania, show very plainly lhat a Union Conservative conciliatory spirit prevails in tbe great center, aod that with proper efforts a great deal of strength outside of the Democratic party may be gained for the B-eckinridge ticket. If tbe Union peacelovisg voters will drop Douglas, Bell and Houston, neither of whom can by aoy pos sibility be elected, and turn their votea in to B and L.. thev will aweeo the country and demolish the Black Republicans as . . . - " J Samson did the Philisti .es. Mr. Breckin ridge is the only candidate except Mr. Lin coin who is sure of an Electoral rote, and the latter, if beaten at all, can only be overthrown by the former. It is all very well to write and speak against Lincoln ana n.s supporters, out it an avail, notning unless mere is r univeu Opposition io him. Mr. Breckinridge gains strength at the North every day. It is possible that he may conquer Lincoln. It is not possiuie, so lar as we can see, lor any other candidate to do so. Therefore we adviss the conservative masses of the North to uaite aod outvote Lincoln at the polls, combin-1 ing to support tne only nominations which have touched the popular heart, those of urecsiunage sou lim. Light in LoTrT. We met on the cars the other day, a Cincinnati acquaintance ho had been to Egypt, to look at the corn, He "happened in" at Palestine on Saturday last, where more than a thousand live Republicans had assembled to hold a
political love feast. He expressed muehlPCDi there forethan the voluntary
astonishment to witness such a elemonstralion in the "home of the Giant," and more particularly in Egypt. Our friend is one of those who signed the call for the great Bell 6 Everett demonstration which came ft in Oiucionati last .week, and we rot from him some light on that sobject also.
LATER FROTI EIHOPE.
ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA. New York July 24 The steamer Canada, from Liverpool the 1 1th', hat arrived. Garibaldi's ministry had resigned. It was reported that Naples had notified Englasd and France of her intention to offer the constitution of 1812 to the Sicil ians. Frat.ce had assented thereto, but ! England hesitates. Sir Robert Peel r.ll-d o tl, cnvrn. ' ment not to assent to the annexation of Sicily to Piedmont. Lord Juhu Russell replied that the government could not depart from the great principle that the peoI pie had the right to chouse their own overumeut without interference. Lord John Russell explained the potition of the proposed European coi.fereoce relalu aavoJ England had accepted the proposition of Prussia, while Austria hesitates. The government had uo knowledge of the replies by the other governments. It was stated in Parliament that the British forces in China reach 17,000 men. The French government and Legislature dieagrecp as to the bill relating to the exportation of rags, and the bill was withdrawn. The monthly returns of the bank of France showing a decrese on cash of 37,000,000 francs. Insurrection in Syria continues. Fued Pascha has gone there on a special mission, armed with full powers and in view oftbat fact. England and France have agreed to absiain irom present interference it Turkey, however, proves incapable. These governments have an identical instruction to their admirals to atop the massacres at the desjclioa of tbe villages. The Druses kil led more than 2000 unarmed men in cold blood. There was great alarm at Beyront, and the Franks and christians had taken refuge on the foreign Men of War. The Calcutta Mail of June 14th, and that from Hong Kong May 23d, had reach ed England, and the American portion is on board the Cauada. The British forces had left for the Peiho. A collision was considered iovitable. Toe Breckinridge Movement. The Seceders' ticket, it appears, will not fall to the grouod for lack of newspaper sup port. There are dow two hundred and sixty two journals in the Union devoted to the advocacy of his election. These are distributed as follows: Maine 2, Ne Hampshire 4, Vermont 1. Massachusetts 9, Connecticuts, New York 17, New Jersey 3, Pennsylvania 10, Delaware 1, Maryland 11, Virginia 29, North Carolina 16, South Carolina 1, Georgia 25, Alabama 21, Mis sissippi 10, Louisiana 11, Ohio 12, Ken lucky 20, Tennessee, 16, Indiana 2, Uli nois 3, Missouri 18, Arkansas 1, Florida 5, Texas 3, Wisconsin 3, Minnesota 2, Wash ingtoncity2. In this list there are two hundred and sixty two. Fifty four of this number are published in non slaveholding States, and two hundred and eight in the slavehold ing. The entire number makes an average of eight papers in each Slate. None of the papers in California, Oregon, Rhode Island, Michigan aod Iowa, in the support of Breckinridge and Lane, are included in this list, consequently it is incomplete. The Granert of the World. We have been "out and around" a little in years gone by we traveled, during the years 1852 to 1853, over all Soulhern and West ern Indiana, and over all of Illinois from the Wabash to the Illinois river, but we never saw snch corn as now waves over the fertile fields of the Wabash valley. From this city to Evansville is an almost unbroken cornfield, the most rank, luxuriant and most finely eared we ever 8aw. We should suppose we saw euough corn during the week to bread the world during the season. We learn there is enough in the Miami valley to aupply the whisky. The Fraternitt. We spent an hour with our cotemporaries, Gee, of the Vincennes Gazette, McNe-ly of the Evansville Journal, and Williard of the Enquirer They were all cheerful and courteous wor king earnestly in their several spheres, and are all agreeable gentlemen Lr We ask the attention of our readers to the "List of Premiums of the Bridgetoc Union Agricultural Society." This affords a fine opportunity for our mechanics and f "culturists to compete with their neigh bors, and we hope they will be prepared to do so. Read the Premium List in to-day's weekly issue of the Express. . U" Thomas A. Hendricks, in 1858, while Douglas was fighting his great battle against the Administration, left his office of Land Commissioner at Washington city, came lo Indianaand made a score of stump speeches, in which he sustained the Locomplon policy of the anti-Douglasites, and denounced the Little Giant in anleasured terms. Thk Mont gomery, Alabama, Mail talks of refusing to let postmasters appointed by Lincoln, if he should be elected President, take possesstsn oi she omces. lh Albany hvening Journal makes tins remark tbe text ot a caustic article.

For instance, durins the last nineteen years, the mail service in the Southern States has cost 50,544,416 1 8, and the receipts have been only 3Z7,54y,6ZU: showing a deficiency ot nearly twenty-three millions of dollart: During the same period, the mail Service in Northern States cost $G0, 891 3 34 and the receipts were 968, 648,510 70 showing a surplus of oear eight millions of dollars. What more lucky thing could hap suspension of two or three hundred oi these pauper establishments?

JOHN STOW ERY-. PROSPECTUS OF THE OLD LINE GUARD. The Old Line Guard will be issued on Tuesday, the 17th of July, 18C0, at Indidianapolis, Ind. This paper will advocate the election of those true, tried aod patriotic Statesmeu, John C. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, and Geo. Jo. Lane of Oregon, for Ihe Presidency aud Vice Presidency. A period has arrived in the history of the time-honored Democratic party, when it becomes the solemn duty of those who love principle more than men, to take council of their judgment, rather than personal preferences and prejudices, and stand forth calmnly, firmly and fearlessly in defence of Ihe right. We feel thai we are doing this in uailing to our mast head the colors of Breckinridge and Lane, with the platform, of principles they have declared in their letters of acceptance, and using all houorable means to insure their election. In the language of oar candidate Jfor President, let us stand by tbe "Constitution, and tbe Equality of tbe States! These are symbols of everlasting Union. Let Ihese be the rallying cry of the people." The Old Line Guard will be published Tri-weekly, until after ihe Presidential election, at the low price of One Dollar, in advance.

I his won derful remedy was brought to tbe knowledge of ihe present proprietors by a friend who ha Ixen a great traveller ia Persia and the Holy Land. While going down the river Euphrates, he experienced a severe attack ot Fever and Ague. On discoveriag his condition, one of the boatmen took from his person an Amulet, saying, "Wear this and no fever will touch you." Although iocredulous as to its virtues, he complied and experienced immediate relief, and has si nee always found it an effectual protection from all malarious complaints. t On further investigation he found that the boatman attributed to it miraculous powers, and said that it could only be obtained from the Priests of the San. Sott time afterwards the gentleman in conversing with a Priest, obtained from him tbe secret of its preparation, and ascertained where the medicinal neros were lound, or which it was compounded. Tbe wonder' ful virtues of this article have induced a full belief in tbe minds of the natives of the miraculous healing powers of their Priests.
