We appeal to every Republican reader to whom this may como, in Morrow and Knox Counties, to use all honorable efforts during the abort interval between this and Tuesday the 11th Inst, to been re tho success of Republican principles and men at the coming election. Yonr candidates well Tcprosant your principles, and therefore, the triumph of the former will be the trymnph ot the latter; and thi dofeat of your candidates, for the time being, will be the defeat of your principles. An you would avoid the Irst, see to it that you avoid the first. Don't grudge a little time and labor In personal efforts with your neigh' bors and acquaintances, to give them if nec ceFary, correct information with regard to the political .Ikkucs and feigh importance o' tte election now so near at band.

The genius of Republican ism of our free governmen t of free labor of free homes, arid f wbrld'-wide Freedom, entreats, you command every Republican to do his duty, his whold duty, and nothing but bis duty. Friends of Freedom, Justice, and Humanity, will not every one of you do it? Who tells tho Truth. Hon. Sunset Cox in his speech at Newark,' some weeks ago, told his democratic auditors that alt the stories in the Republican papers about the arrival ot cargoes, of Africans In our Southern ports, and the revival of tho foreign slave trade, were the basest fabrication, and got vp for merely pjiticai vuiyotta. Senator Douglas, on the contrary, in his olurobus speech, told tho assembled Democ racy that the abolitionists and Republican's of the North, had set the example of tiisobod once to tbe national laws in rtlusing to carry out the Fugitive act, and that tbe South, by way of retaliation, had re opened the slave trade; and that at that moment, a larger number of vessels, with cargoes of AWcans.Vln addition to those already landed and soldi) were on their way to southern ports "of the United States. Who falsif.es bout this matter Cox or Douglas? Who can tell? It is said the De mocracy are annit, but here are two Democratic leaders that are far from unity in an im portant matter. B. &lnd. R. R.

Judge Bauney's Letter. Judge 'ftanney Bnds his '13 letter to Mr. Hoffman a' bad egg in hii way in '59. He seems disposed to plead the ' baby act to got rid of il ; but it wont do. He was 32 years of ago w4ieivfae wrote the letter, and thought himself old nough to bo elected to Congress. We fear he was a better man then than he il new. That Icttor bears evidence on its fact that no baby wrote it. M. Fbois'A Co. We invite the attontion ol the great publio to the advertisement of (heso gentlemen in our columns.

Tho weather was everything that could be expected or avked; and tho Fair ex-ooedod the expectations of its most sanguine Iriends. In coiisoqucnce of tho June frost and other causes, it was supposed tbe Fair would he rather a alonder ail'uir, To show that the Knox Coutity Fair of 1859 was a success, we nolo the fact that on the Qrst day, the receipts of cash at the guto, were $370, being $130 wore 'than the first day's receipts of the Statu Fair at Zanesville last week. On tho ncoLcl day the receipts were $G50, making a total of $1020 for Ike flrut two days. At the time of writing this, (Fii-dny.) we have' not the means of knowing what were the receipts of the 3d day. The exhibition in the various departments, Oft the whole' was highly creditable to tbo industry and enterprise of the citizens of the county. The attendance the ontiro three days was good, and on the second day, the number of ladies and gentlemen upon the grounds was very large, almost, if not quite os largo as at tho great Fair last year. .. Notwithstanding the number presont from our ow a and other couotiesthe order and decorum observed ware excellent, '. ' The stoct department was well represented with horses, cattle, sheep and snihe. In horses tho exhibitic n was fine; in cattle, it was not up to last year .in number, though the rruaHty was good. It seemed to us also1 that the number of 6heep and swine, especially tha lattcrjell short. Tbe vegetable department was far superior 'to lapt year, and failed forth many economies.

Next week we shall notice tho Fair m.re in detail. must not, however, omit to say that the Mt. Vernon and Fredricktown - Fjre Companies werj on hand. the 2d day .of tho Fair and made a fine display. ' Slave & Whiskey Power. Tako away from the so callcd Democratic party the Slave power and tho Whiskoy pojv-er, and what has it left to sustain it? Without the slave power the party could not carry a fcinglo Southern State; aud without the Whiskey power, it could not succeed in a sin gle Northern State. Take away from the modern Democratic party these two great powers, and it would hi an insignificant faction. Think ol it, and sea if this is not true to the letter. 03" We are indebted lo T. B.

Longworth, the lar gest wine manufacturer in the country, writ ten to the (Jincinnati Commercial, says: "We may now feol certain of a large crop of grapes, probably as large a yield as for the last three years. The reliablo.vinter, who, a lew years since, mauoll.tXJO irallons Irmn an acre, expeots this fall to make 1,200 gallons." air. li. liuctunan, of Cincinnati, next to Mr. Longworth, the largest wine grower, in a letter says thi vin'ageof 1859, near Cincinnati, will bo the largest since 1853. Tho avenigo yield will bo about 400 gallons to the acre. Within twenty miles around Cincinnati, it is estimated the crop will be 800,000 gallons; so that the wino crop of Ohio tho present year may be satcly estimated at over a million of dollars in valtia. OJrMy friends, I always leavo, when I talk, the best thing for the conclusion, and now lam going to give it to you. 1 present to you Judo Ranney the next Democratic Governor of Ohio. (Tremendous shouts of appla:se, followed by nine cheers for Doug las.) . Ibis is the conclusion of the speech of Judge Douglas at Wooster. It will bo ob served that he did not introduco Judge Ran ney as tho licit uovernor ol Ohio, but as the "next Democratic Governor." 1 hut was de- oidcdly a Dslphio utterance. Cin.

Ho remained there month after month, bis spouse expecting ih vain to hear from him, until tno entire years had elapsed. Supposing him dead, er herself deserted, she sued for, and obtained a d:vorce probably on the ground of protracted abscecco and lack of support. ' A few months after the divorce was granted, Mrs. W. was married again; and, after living wltn her second husband two years, he Jied, leavjrg her, an actual, as she was before a le gal widow.'

II. hamuli, Jisg: It has often been remarked that Mt. Vernon is getting to be and is one of the hardest towns that can be found. I always doubted the reality of such deroga tory remarks, and was satisfied 'in, uiy own mind that such was not tho oa.anU tint it was for the want of knowledge! of the vilo-ness, corruption and 'dissipation of other places, that such remarks woro made. Although our town isimmoral and dissipation and wickedness seem to be on tbo increase . in our midst, yet it is a notorious truth that it is more so in other places, as they aro far in advance of us at present. I havo beon taking notice in every towo to see for myself whether thc30 things are so; and I must 6ay that although our boys and young men are pro-faro, drink, swear, gamble, idle about the slreets, breuk the sabbath, &o., fco., yet I will venture to say the boys in Fort Wayno, Ind., are bolder in bLsphemy, worship moro di-rectly at tho altar uf llacchus.ond liquor sellers are as bold there no.v as thoy wero in the dark ages.and'the sins ol the ignorant winked at. You can .stiiinl an 1 read si,'ns, such as pure liquors, wines, xxx ale, sthii.a beer, pale wino, c, Ac, in largo luiteu as if liquor selling were as .honorable as profitable. Bo it said to our disgrace, we have a billiard ta-bio, bowling alloy, and liquor celling establishments, yet Fort Wayne has -three to our ofte. It is trua our boys swear, but in this place profanity mingles in social conversation, and is as common aa household words. Warsaw, Kosciusco county, is not much bo-hind Fort Wayne in this respect, although not so large. ' " My next stopping place was at Davonport, Iowa. Hero, I must say that gambling, drinking,' smokingj shearing, and licentiousness, are in a more rilie condition. Things here show the elfccts of hard times. Business is dull and better lor men to sell beer than in Ohio. Wilton, Iowa, .is a small town but is well supplied with 40 per cent shavers, rum sellers and swearers, much to ft'd discredit. ! It has a beautiful and rich country around to support it, but over-speculation and 40 per cent shaving have given it a backsot, from which'1 will not recover till honest inJustry is rewarded for its toil. "Oa my refum'I called at Genosseo and spent the sabbath, (this is in Illinois,) and the most flourishing place I passed through. A number of Cue brick buildings have been -and aro in courso of erection. It is surroun ded by a very rich and well improved farm-itig country. Tbore is somo good people here and Sabbth schools are pretty well attended.:I am now in the city of Chicago, and have not room to say what I would liko to of this place; but for morals Mt. .Vernon is far, far ahead. Our placo is a stranger to such vice, depravity, drinking and corruption, as are common here. Ths United States Fair is in progress here and a fair exhibition of ma chinery and such liko is on tho ground. I will send you a newspapor printod on th ground that will post you somo. Yours, &c, M.

Last evening I was reading Horace Greo- ley's addresses in California and observed one point which particular by interested me and led me to think of my little girls, and to ask mysell If I had done oil I ought.to induce them to give their most earnest , attcinjoJi to this very nnportnntipart of their education. It is a Imowledys of it;orrfi-throu-h ac quaintance witho urown language whereby we convey thoughts mature thoughts produce thoughts and croate knowledge., " J Now this statement may not bo strictly correct, and if it is not, it only the more clearly proves that I neod the very culture I am trying to. induce you to seek moro dilli-gcntly. But at any rato, 1 believe there exists such an intimate relation -between thoughts and words thot a train of thoughts cannot be formed without signs of our ideas set down here and Ihero (like mile stones;) and tiwtfi are signs, thercl'oro wo think in words. Your Undo says that when he speaks to his Toutouic hostler he has to "Chink in dutch" else he could not speak in dutch. Like other girls you havo a natural quiot-ness of apprehension cart produce mental pictures rapidly perceive accords and discords with facility especially of the facetious or ridiculous kind; and draw comparisons or illustrations exportly. Now if, in addition to natural gifts, for which you deserve neither praise nor blame, you will acquire words in their orthography definitionsp-onuncia-tion application, derivation and relation to eachother together with their symmetrical construction into sentences and paragraphs, y )u will make your conversation very irilerostin" and agrotablo, and your compositions instructive and facinating. Your company will be sought for, your influence he enlarged, and you will get credit for all the knowledge you ' possess -and more too. A landscape may contain all the beau ties and magnificence of crearfvo power, but until tho sun enlightens it, no body can he expected to admire it. Mies M has stud ied-Botany, Mineralogy, Astronomy; Philos- ophy and Mathematics sill she is full of wonderful ideas and sublime thoughts, dislocated, deranged, confused, tinmarshalled and useless;" While Miss if. has studied words and Senten- cos.-r-oijscrvcd the world around her, mental moral and physical;' let her tongue and pen run freely, seen the expression of all sorts of thoughts ard . feelings polished her mind' against living minds and her thoughts by constant uso till she passes current at lull val ue, while Miss M. possessing tho real gold 1 will only pass for lead. 'Iam not goirjg to ask you which you would rather be I am asking you' to bo both, tho landscape full of wealth ar.d bunuty and the sun to bring it out. , I do and must admire a woman fluont, free, racy, pungent, lucid and sententious in his or her conversation or composition. , I am dclightod to boar a man talk or writo as though words were his willing servants and .the whole eighty thousand were standing or flying around him lik4 countless scintila- tions of light, eager to manifest tho deepest ns well as the most superficial, etno'lons, sentiments, opinions, or convictions of his mind or heart. Humanity scorn's as much exalted by such gifts or attainments' as by tho elaboration of Iho.iO' Bubtile theories of tho in'an- gible, invisible agonbs of. patu.ro, indicated by the word "Chemistry," or thoso stupenduous systems which reveal the ordor, regularity and counterpoising' forces of tho pondbrous substancos of nature known as "natural phi losophy;" or even by your favorite science whereby tho mind grasps, the length of the comet's tail the solid contents of sot-urn's body and the lightoning's velocity .called "Mathematics.'' That impersonal, imaginary boing known among accountants by the name 'Profit and Loss" -oan reveal many interesting facts show ing the commercial valui of correct definitions and tho right use of words. I onco used a word in a contract that I supposed represented a certain idea which I afterwards found it did not reprosont, and it cost me over six hun- d red 'dollars! , , Tbo firm I am now doing business with might have saved two thousand dollars this yoar if they had well understood the' mean-ing of a certain wrird which is in daily uso among business men, nnd it is probable that tho great ."India Rubbor case" which has haunted the courts lor years and cost many thousands of dollars, would never have been born if words hud been properly understood and used . In legislation also much mischief results from the wrong use of words. In science Theology politics, and evon in social intercourse tho evil is found. I might also refer to governmental controversies, wars treaties, allinncea.el-c.', but.I am getting my letter quito tootong to be interesting to a young girl, unless I should make two oi throo P S'es. Therefore, hoping you will set your mind upon this attainment and find improvement and pleasure in it, I subscribe myself, Affectionately your TA. The Revival in Ireland. The awakoning in Ireland is regarded as the most wonderful religious movement of modern times. It is changing the social, mental, and moral aspect of tho society Where it prevails, and tho tido of li'ily infiuenco still continncs to roll onward ond with interesting powoT. It is now generally admitted that a power of no human origin, and which cannot be wielded by human agency ,is at work both on tho bodies and minds of its subjects. The infiuenco is yet principally confined to tho north-of Ireland. There is nothing impassioned, excitable, or superstitious in the character of tho people of that portion. Unlike tho Cells of tho south and west, who are full of these elements, thoy are of English origin, and exhibit many of tho foature of the Sax on charactor. It is the stronghold of Protestant influence, and Prosbvterianism is the principal ccclesiastinl element among the dis senters, ino nunistois oro men of men to 1 power anil varied culture. A London paper says: Thrco 'things distinguish tho revival from any that have preceded it. 1st. The total absence of any plans or organization for producing a religious ox citemont. 2d. Thoro is no trumpot-tongued evangelist of the revijal, as a .Wesley or a Whitfield, attracting thousands by his forco or power. 3d. Extraordinary physical pho nomena accompany tho movement, which cannot bo satisfactorily accounted for. From various accounts in tho foreign papers we collect tho following comments and statements ol facts. The greater portion of tho population at present affected is awed by religious truth. l lie worK originated in no grand demonstration, neither was it heralded by omens and predictions. Yet its features are so marked and tho changes which resu't from is so palpable as to attract tho attention even ol cold sceptical philosophy, which is compelled to acknowledge the genuineness of a movement produced by an oaency of which it has no knowledge. . 1 ' . 1 he ministers and christians of all the Protestant denominations have joined in tho work. ' Ministers of tho Episcopal denomination, who would not a few months ago unite with a Baptist: or recognise his ministerial claim Presbytorians, Methodists of various sects, all minglo and cordially co-operate. As perities, jealousies, unkindly feeling aie melting down. - Elders, deacons, leaders, and members aro very active in. prayer meetings and in visiting the awakened. In many pla ces every second house in the street is a Bethel, In houses, shops, ware rooms, squares, school-rooms, churches, and chapels, people meet lor-prayer. lliey go there in thousands; every placo of worship is open almost from morning tin night. A short lime since the Botanical Gardens nt Belfast wero visited by about 40,000 people, who, in dilTere.it groups, spent tbe day in various acts ol religious services. A new court-house at Colcrain. was to bo' opened, and arrangements were made for. celebrating tho event in tho usual manner;' but as the day approached ho one could be found to at tend the ball. Meetings for prayer were pro posed and tho place was crowded throughout tho day by thousands of devout and interesting persons. In some places trade is interrupted. Mills cannot go on. Editors now and then apologiso to thoir readers that their paper is delayed on this account; while rail way directors aro putting on special trains and allowing thorn to run till a late hour for the -convenience of parties attending religious services from a distance. ' ' . All classes, old and younff, educated, and nnoducatcd.art experiencing the power of this awakening. Professional men, merchants, mriuors, artisans, factory girls, and laborers nro found togothor among the convened. Nor are its efliirts alone to be witnt-sscd among the' Presbyterians, Methodists, Episcopalians, and Baptists; but the Moravians, Roman Catholics, and Unitarians are .alike ffocted. Some of the accompaniments of Ilia great work puzzlo and perplox many. The strik. ings down, the bodily prostration, the loss ol spocch, sight, and hoaring lor a ti.uo, the alleged visions in some cases, these are a stumbling-block to many.. These phenomena mark tho revival " more or less every where. In many cases persons are struck in a moment with a. most overwhelming : sense of Kin and danger, . . Sometimes it is followed by the entire physical prostration, and in all cases by the most acute anguish. These phe-nmnona atl'ect all classes tbe gray bairod man and the child, tbo lady of social position and the ignorant old woman. These circumstances are rcportod by very intelligent investigators, and deserve and recoire an atten tive consideration'." They must'be'eftrtbiited to Rome other cause than the excitability ol the Irish character, lor it must bo remembered that the people aro Scotch-Irish and loss mercurial in their temperament than even the English. The fruits of the work ore every where visible; a great change, has taken placo in the tcmpor and habits of multitudes. . To this, ministors of all denominations, magistrates, and the employers of laborers bear uniform testimony. Young men and women who were wont to crowd out of town on Sunday evenings for pleasure are flow found in the house or prayer. J hore is a reat falling oti in the liquor tto flic, some who have been engaged in it hitherto 010 giving up their licences and engaging in othor occupations. The duties of the police have been greatly lessened; savings banks receive augmented depos its, and masters find their full muster of hands on the first day of tho week's toil.

If we greeted more heartily .than others any exhibitors at our Stale Fair, it must bo the gentleiuen whose name makes the captii n abovo.' We confess to a warm, imperishable sympathy to mechanics, ' a "lellow feeling" that time cannot obliterate. If our direc tors would have the effect, not an apparatus m. the country should bo controlled, owned or exhibited but by the mechanics who in vent it, give it "shape and consistency," make it, in fine. When wo'mect an article of merit under such auspices, 'things seem natural,' and such precisely was the case in respect to the gentlemen whoso names we -use. We found them in "Power Hall," superintending their "Improved Iron Husk Portablo Grist Mill," lor grinding Wheat and Corn and oth er substancos requiring "pulverizing. , We had toe opportunity or inspecting this improvement when in actual "blast" yesterday, and wo accord it superiority over any other we have ever witnessed in motion, It completely performs its work, and in a style which astonishes the crowd pressing round. We ascertained that Messrs. Shipley & Blair manulacturo dilterent gages or sizes fro.n twenty inches to four feet in diameter, to suit all classes of purchasers. The Burrs ore of the tinest French quarry and selected from a large stock. 1 ho entire mill is of tho bolt aud most durable workmanship- and after its re ception can be put in operation in a very short tunc; it occupies but little space, and may ho rim at any speed without liability o) choke- ing, not easily disordered, and so perfect that tho proprietors warrant il in all cas.s. They arovvery generally in uso, duing both .Mer chant & Custom work, and in every instance in which they havo yet been triod they have rendered entire satisfaction. Without enlarging upon their chnri'clcristics, tho points ot merit in which they are unrivalled, we will conclude this hasty ad version to them by citing everybody to tie spot where tho sample is orected, in Power Hall. Messm. Shipley & Glair are from Mt. Vernon, and wo sa. by their advertisement, that they olfer liberal chances to manufacturers. They furnish do signs and droits of Mills free of charge, and will sell county rights of the above improve ment, with patterns,, if required.
