JAHES X PAUIDIHO. The late James Kirke Paulding was born in Dutches coo oty, N. YW th 22d of tVagnst; 1779, and id the Terj crisis of tbe great war of the Beeolutlon. The red-coats disturbed him in his cradle, hi family being forced to take refuge from the invaders in Westchester county; "where the childhood and youth of-Paulding were pass ed, and where he seems to bare received what ever scholastic and regular education he ever en joyed. Cone to man's estate. Mr. Paulding re moved to New York, then, as now. the City of the Empire State, though not, as now, of the ha tron, and fell at once into intimate relations with Washington Irving, whose elder brother had mar ried Paulding's sister. In January, 1807, under the almost nominal supervision of William Irving, the &rst number of "Salmagundi' made its appearance, bearing with it two aspiring young" New Yorkers aod their literary fortunes. The wholesome inflo ence which Irving's peculiar refinement, patience and breadth of nature exerted upon the more vehement and less original constitution of his colleague's mind, is sensibly' marked in the papers which Paulding contributed to- this collec tion. Left to himself, the . infant who had been put to flight by Sir William Howe's royalists, turned instinctively in his manhood upon these premature enemies, and Mr. Paulding's pen was consecrated to the chastisement of ' British outrages" of all sorts and kinds. Be -opened the war of 1812 with a satire; entitled "John Bull and Brother Jonathan," which w 11 be read as a study of American manners and feelings in the arly and captious days of our National Inde pendence, long after it has ceased either to sting the "effete monarch v? over seas, or to rejoice the cockles of democratic hearts in those backwoods cabins where atone it would now be likely to find an audience tor its own sharp sake. The New York of 1812 was, of course, enchanted with the work, and for a time Mr. Paulding quite eclipsed his friend, in the public eye. He followed up his first "hit" with a second, "The Lay of the Scottish FidJle," issued in 1821; and then brou't himself to the notice of tbe political leaders of the day and particularly of Mr. Mauison by a pamphlet entitled "The United States and England."' In 1814 he was named, by the President, Secretary of the Board of Navy Commissioners. From this office be was subsequently advanced to tht of Navy Agent at New York, which he held for many years; and finally, under Mr. Van Buren's administration, was called to the Cabinet as Secretary of tbe Navy. This was his last political preferment; and, although al. ways known as a resolute and a devoted Democrat, Mr. Paulding never exerted any very com-manding influence in the political world. His official duties did not distract him from the pursuit of literary fame. In 1815 he issued "Letters from the South by a Northern Man." In 1818 be attempted a still bolder flight in "The Bnckwoodstnan,' a poem in aix cantos, and in 1822, after an interval which had produced J,A Sketch of Old England" and "The New Munchausen," he came forward as a norelist in "Ko-nifgmarke, or Old Times in the New Worla." It is in his character of novelist trat the name of Psulding is best known, and in this character hat he is most likely to be remembered. "Ko iggmarke paints the story of the Swedes in Delaware, already caricatured by Irving in Kipckbocker's History of New York." "The Dutchman's Fireside," another glance into tbe past, was more keenly taken and more, vigorously reported. This novel, which appeared in 1831 became very popular, was translated into French. t was translated, of course, into Dutch also, and we believe, into the' Swedish, Danish, and German, as well. "Westward Ho!" a novel of Ken tucky life; "The Puritan and his Daughter," the Tales of a Good Woman -by a Doubtful Gentle man;" aud the "Book of St. Nicholas," com plete the catalogue of Mr. Paulding's works of fiction. If to these we add the "3Ierry Tales of Three Wise Men of Golbam," a satire in tbe vein, though not :in the fashion, of Rejbaud's Jerome Palurot-," "The Traveller's Guide, or New Pilgrim's Progress," wherein the follies and foibles of British bagmen on their travels Are set forth and scourged; a "Life of Washington," and a volume of "American Comedies," compos-el by Mr. Paulding, in company with one of bis sons, and published in 1847, we have before us tbe avowed results of Mr. Paulding's long literary life. Bet these bear hardly an adequate proportion to bis anonymous productions. Rather, a writer than an author, Mr. Paulding ran over into all sorts of compositions, and carried into all the thoroughly positive and emphatic quali ties ot bis character. Death of a Lorain Pioneer. Mr. Ezekiel Barnes, aged 90 years, died ia Amherst on the 5 th inst. Forty -six -fears ago says the Elyria Democrat, Mr. Barnes came to Ohio from Massachusetts on foot, and located in the then wilderness of Amherst. He served bis country as a soldier io.1812, and for 69 succes sive years exercised the rights of an elector. He had been a husband 65 years, and had never been married hot once. Fanny Barnes, his widow, is only four years his junior, ia whose companion ship the venerable subject of this notice had seen three "generation pas awsy. He Jived to see bia great great granr cbiiuren, ana y reason ot "superior strength, temperate habits, and active vocations, bad lived out bis four score years and ten without ever knowinr a sick day.

' . , . . r r - your paper oi April ja, nut to nacatiea lor attack upon f'he personal character of the Inven tor aad manufacturers of Cook's Portable Sogar Evaporator. - Tke merits of the Evaporator the have aperfect right to .discuss, but our private characters thej shall not assail with impunitv and for their envenomed slanders they will be held responsible before the Judicial Tribunal. With this preface we leave the personalities of their article without further notice in newspaper columns, and say a word or two in reply to those extracts calling in question the merits of our Machine They claim the exclusive advantage of (Cooks Evaporator) being-the only kind with which sugar aod good syrnp can be made from the Cnioese cane. We make this claim in reference to Sugar not Syrup. As the proof of the pudding, &c, we will only mention the little fact, that no other Evaporator has yet made Sugar while Cook's has. 44 The very construction of the apperatus for hich they claim this exclusive virtue, is such to afford no facilities, except that of simple evap oration.; We need none- the rapid alternate subjection to heated and cooling surfaces defecates to a charm, Ileal is the best cleansing agent, as the Messrs. Cooper may in the future find out 1 May have obtained sugar from the settlings f the syrup." . : Our learned friend bad better post themselves on the process of crjstalization. Suzar from the "settlings!" That will do. " A pan whose wortMiness every purchaser, hp ever bad an opportunity to compare it with some others, can testify in sorrow.- ! . surely the men who manufacture this erapo- rator are very unfortunate ia not being able to obtain certificates of experiments, endorsing this man s assertions, from their long list of acq a am lances of 'Sq-iires,'; ' Uooorables,' 'Ex Honor- ables,' &,c." - Sorry the company of "honorable" men ia ot congetiinl to the Messrs. Cooper. But here is something meant to rub. " A pair whose worlklinets." We cannot find that word in our spelling book and doit know its meaning, but the remark maul be cutting and severe. Those who hnve the opportunity to compare it with "some others" (Cooper's for instance,) usually give np "some other " and bay CookV. As to "certificates of experiments we could not publish a tithe of those received in any publication of reisonable dimensions. To render the CvMjper's easy on that score, we append a few very britf extracts hithereto unpublished: "Just the"'thing f r Sugar and Syrup," F. S. Davis, Princeton, III. "All that is clined for it; my sugar is graining' E. Jones, New Philadelphia. "Perfect satisfaction," V. Jt. Wcl'ber, Morris, Illinois. "Jut . the thing I need for Sorgum," J. H. Schnebly, Modsville, 111. - " Works to a charm," E. Wescott, Rochester, Minnesota. . .".Faater, bntter and cleaner than by any other method," A. II. James k E. McNitt, Walnut Lim, in. : "Made 20 bbls. For beauty of color and flavor can't be beat." Mynott Goodsell, Snth Mil-1 ford. IM. : "Will do what it is recommended to do." H. J. Freeman, Montgomery, Co., O. "Gives entire satisfaction. Reliable means by which sugar can be made from the Chinese cane with success." Shueart & Davis. Princeton, III. And so we might continue ad injtnilum But we do not certify our machine into notoriety. We let the people see it work, and at the Fairs, we serve other Evaportors as we did the Messrs. Cooper, at Zaneavilla last Fall. We beat them out of sight in rapidity of Evaporation and in quality of syrup 1 That's the reason we always get the first premiums. We make it so much quicker, better and cleaner than any body else. " How this industrious inventor of evapora tors, fljing machines, tooth brushes. &c has succeeded, according to . his owu assertion, in making out of green aod frost bitten cane, dur ing the winter and spring of '08 and 59, over 900 pounds of sugar, and during the winter and spring of '59 and '60 nearly 1800 lbs. of sugar on bis mysterious evaporator. Now, this is not incredible, for the public must bear in mind that sorgho anger, owing to the novelty of the thing, sell to interesting parties at a ver comfortable figure, and this sagacious concocter of humbugs, who possesses a handsome camp of maple trees, was not the man to let good "runs of the last two years pass unimproved." Here is an open charge of fraud. The sngar Mr. Cook has palmed off upon the public as Sorghum was not Sorghum, but maple 1 . And Mr. Cook's object . in such . a paltry fraud was the comfortable figure " he could realize in the sale of it."--- .' - " Now, Mr. Cook has never sold a pound of Sor ghum.

With what contempt then must we look apon that disappointed avarice which would prompt the Messrs. Cooper to make so ignomin ious a charge against, a . worthy Inventor who struggling for years against poverty and adverse circumstances his at length made a fortunate discovery 1 But now we come to the grand secret of all this malice and bitterness. They say : . "It is a matter of too much importance to be monopolized by any particular inventor.' Of course its a monopoly. That i what Mr. Cook got his patent-for. It is what all patents are for, to secure to the inventor the monopoly of his invention for a term of years as a reward for his thought, toil and- struggle ; and when avaricious men regardless of tha inventor's rights seek to rob Lim of his jest does by bringing on an issitatioo, our government inflicts a penalty npon such infringement, and the Messrs. Cooper and all who are interested may rest assured, that Mr. Cook will rigorously prosecute infringments upoa his patent. "In conclusion, we will make the following of fer, viz: : " ' We will pay tde sum of $250 to any patentee who has produced, daring the past season, .or previously, an Evaporator, which ia point of convenience and durability, as well as rapidity of operation, is better calculated for working op the tninese on gar cane into sogar ana molasses tha the Union Evaporator. "And if we have not a pan which affords bet ter facilities for manufacturing and refining syrup than any made in this section of the country, we will pay the abive sum to any person who will pay the expense of proving it to the satisfaction of disinterested men. "C. & J. COOPER' We wilt accept the above challenge as soon as they deposite the money with the Knox County Branch Bank, so that we can be sure of getting t if: they back down, fail, or fizzle. And now, Mr. Editor, although we . have en croached upon your columns and your patience, we will state briefly what, we do claim for ouf vaporator and . what bur success in the past bears us out ia claiming : 1st. We claim and have an Evaporator which will Evaporate Cane juite to a beautiful syrup ri from 20 to 30 minutes. This no other can approach. 2d. We claim and have the only Evaporator which is a self-defecator and dispenses with lime and all chemicals, not even needing any milk to ighten the color ! - -" 3d. We claim and have the only Evaporator hich can use a running stream and thereby prevent scorching. 4th. We claim and lave the only Evaporator that can allow tbe juice to flow in at one end and a beautiful syrup from the other, requiring no other operation either in preparing the juice or finishing the syrup, thereby effecting a great sav nsr of trouble, time and vexation. 5th. We claim and have the only Evaporator which causes a deposite of a wax found in the uice, that unless extracted would prevent granu lation, and hence, 6 ih. We have the only Evaporator which las ever made Sorghum Sugar successfully. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, we will for the ben fit of the public irsert Mr. Cook's circular to is agents : BLYMYER, BATES i DAY. Maxsfield, January, 1850. Deah Sir: You are aware since the anoear- ance tf my Evaporator, known as Cook's Portable Sugar Evaporator, many imitations have sprung up, designed by some trivial changes to evade my Patent and. thus deprive ine of the compensation justly due my labors and studies, and which the laws of our country are intended to secure to every inventor. ' Allow me respectfully to inform yon that on December 20th, a Re-issue of my Letters Pat ent was granted me, in which is more fully secured to me what I was origiually entitled to. The following extract from tbe Re issue will g've you tha lead ng ppinrs secured to me. : Yon will observe that :n the patent I have patented a froces?, and 1 claim not only the Evaporator specified, but any pan which embodies in its con struction or use any of the principles of my pro cess, or any part or the machine by which I have made my process available: - - "My inventioc is a very important one from this fact: The syrup is heated intensely at tbe centre of the pan, then partially cooled as it Uows at the sues, ine rapid ebullition through the centre of tbe pan causes tbe scum and fecu- ent matter to be thrown off to the ends of the channels, and rest at the cool sides of the pan until removed by: skimmers, the impurities o( one channel being' prevented from passing through tha next channel by the ebullition at the centre. The frequent cleansing of the stream as it p isses from - channel to channel, secures its perfect defecation, and dispenses with the usual process of defecation by chemical agents. . "My invention is also very important because it renders practicable the boilixo of scoab juices wbilb is kotiox. and consequently a shallow flowing , stream instead of a deep still body of liquor is exposed to the fire.- Having a hallow flowing stream pass over the heating surface effects a uniform boiling without scorching the juice, and also enables the operator to know at a glance tbe Condition ef the svrno. and so time its flow that it shall reach - the ' outlet f the pan just as it arrives at the point of crystali-zation, and thereby avoid the danger of sobjec-jeciing it too long to the action of heat, and thus prevent crystati ration. :; - -'- - - " - "Mr inveotioa is Important because it allows of. the syrup bein kept a longer or a shorter time in contact wita ne beating- surface aceor ding as" the stream is" shallow or deep, or the fire intense or slight. : : - .What I claim aad wish ta teca're by Letters ratent u n ..-r "FiasT.

Note a. The use of my pan. or a pan embody ing any of tbe principles of its construction up on any kind of farnace, brick or otherwise, is ao tatnagemant. b. The use of ledges for riving coarse to the current is aa infringement.

Any projection of the body of loices out side the line of ebullition, for the purpose of se curing a rest of the scum, is aa infringement.

' Yonrs, Respectfully, -- D. M. COOK. Arizoma. The convention to form a provisional govern ment for the Territory of Arizona, met at Tuc son o a the 2d of April, and consisted of thirty-two delegates. James A. Lucas was chosen president and Granville Oury secretary. The convention was not at first very harmonious, but a constitution was adopted, finally, with but one dissenting voice. It provides for the ordinary legislative, executive, and judicial department of government, but gives the governor extraon dinary powers, among which is the appointment of the other officers of the government, except legislative ana county omcers. vine convention ballotted for governor, and elected Dr. L. S. Ow- ngs, of Mesiila, who, on the next day, was duly inaugurated, and the following appointments were announced by him: - Lieutenant Governor Ignatio Orrantia. 6 Mesiila. Secretary of State James A. Lucas, of Misil-la. " . .. - . Territorial Treasurer M. Aldricb, of Tucson. Marshal Samuel G. Bean, of Mesiila. Comptroler J. Howard Wells, of Tucsoo. Attorney General Benjamin F. Neal, of Gila City. . . Chief Justice Granville H- O ury, of Tucson. District Judges Samuel W. Cozzins and Ed ward McGowao. The first session of tbe legislature will be held in Tucson on the first Monday in March, 186U A protest was adopted against the removal of United States troops, or the abandonment of military posts now established in Arizonia. The following resolution was adopted: . Resolved, That we have entire confidence in the wise, patriotic, and pure Administration of our venerable President, James Buchanan, fa'ly believing that the only aim he has had in carrying out his Government has been for the good of the whole country. Also, believing that if some of the wholesome acts of. his Administration have failed to become effective, it has been cans ed by the opposition of factious demagogues, whose aims have not been for the good of the people, but for their own personal aggrandizement.Th State House Interesting Tacts. ; Inquiries are frequently made about the cost of tbe new State House, dimensions, e-, which few are able to answer satisfactorily. The last report of the State House Commissioners shows th&Cie total cost of the building up to November 15, 1859, was $1,330,106,20. To this sum should . be added $ 16,000 - appropriated last March, making $1,347,106,20. Tbe building is to be completed by the first day of October next. The State House is 304 feet long, 184 feet wide, and its bight to the top of the cupola 150 feet. Its corner stone was laid . on the 4th of July, 1838, and over twenty years have been occupied in iu construction. : A good deal of the Stone work was done by tbe convict labor. The work oa the Artesian well will be resumed i a about a week. When the contrictor ceased last fail, the well had been carried to a depth of 2,340 feet. There is now ia it 123 feet of iroo tubing 4j laches in diameter, extending from the surface to the first lime rock, and 155 of 3 J inches in diameter, inserted to prevent the slate from crombliag, from; 1461 feet to .1896 feet from the surface. No injury has resalted to the well by the boring having been, suspended. State Journal. Defining1 Its Position. The Philadelphia Hvening Journal, which has ably advocated the formation of the "Constila tional Union Party," having been mistaken as an organ of that party and accused of playing into the hands of the Democratic party, thus defines its position: . - "Ours is the 'flag of the Union,' and -under it -we shall fight Sectionalism aod Abolitionism, oo matter what false and specious names they may assame, just: as long as wo have strength and life to strike a blow for the. whole couotry and its Constitntion, against the domestic and for-eiga foes of both.

On Saturday raorniag" the citixans of Milford, N. 3 were aroused at ao early hoar by the in telligence that a robbery had been committed oo Friday night by one James Nelson. . It appears that Nelson bad been in the employ of Mr. Heo-ry Vail for some time past, and Jon Friday announced his iatentioo ot going to Philadelphia. Having overdrawn the amount of wages doe him, be applied to Mr. J. W. Vanderbilt for some money, and raised a small sum. Mr. Vail retired 10 bed about 9 o'clock, leaving his wife en gaged in some of her domestic duties, aad he soon after fell asleep. About 2 o'clock oo Saturday morning he was awakened by the cries of his children. Upoa calling for his wife be found her missing, and upoa further investigation discovered that Nelson had stolen or take a away his (Vail's) clothing, the clothing of his wife, aad about fifteen dollars in money, and then, to make the robbery more complete, had stolen his ife. Vail and bis wife have hitherto lived har moniously, and are young aod respectable. Vail is willing that his nnfaithful wife may go, but is greatly afflicted at the reproach that may be thrown upon the childrea. Trenton Gazette 167A. Revolt in. the Ohio Penitentiary Proven- - : ted. . Through an orderly, well dispo scd convict Warden Van Sljke learned last week of a con tem plated revolt of the prisoners in the Peniten tiary to culminate Saturday evening ia the din ing room, white they more than a regiment of hardened, reckless men were assembled for supper.. The plan was gotten up by a desperate convict named Blackburn, from Gallia county and at various times communicated, until the whole thousand and sixty men were informed of the plot, which was, to overpower and kill the guards, when all were assembled ia the vast din ing room, then to force the large gate at the southeast corner, kill the guards on the wall, if necessary and when outside of the walls every man take ca:e of himself. Ti e discovery of the plot by the Warden, however, frustrated . the bloody design, and on Saturday evening when each company of men were told by the guards of the discovery a more chop fallen looking set of villians could not be imagined. Previously, however, the ringleaders had been taken from the shops and dungeoned, where a little restric tion will, probably be exercised. There can be no doubt but that wholesale . slaughter, rapine and plundering were prevented by the timely disclosure of the matured plans of tbe desperadoes; for what a volcano of vice and pent up pas sions is concentrated in the hearts of that regi ment ot confined villainy. J Penitentiaries are dear luxuries, a fact that can be appreciated after 'two or three attempts to revolt, when a constant dread of something terrible lurks ta the minds of citisens. The. sooner a new penitentiary is built and three or four hundred convicts moved into it from this the better for Columbus and all parties concerned State Journal. - Crop Prospects in the "West. The Chicago Journal has the following items in regard to crops in the West: A gentleman who bas jost re tared from a trip through various parts of Illinois, expresses the Opinion that more land has been sown with wheat, and is being planted with corn, this year, than ever belore. As a general thing, the grain prospects are favorable thus far in tbe season, though in some localities the winter wheat has been badly frozen. In Will county, and" throughout that region, a great breadth of land has been sown with oats. If the weather continuesi good, and Provi-dence smiles cpon the labors of the husbandman until the harvest-time, the West will no doubt this year have an unprecedented yield of grain. With occasional exceptions, the crop prospects in the North West are represented as in the highest degree encouraging. Yet it is rather early, in the season to predict with any degree of certainty. Late frosts, dry weather and other visitations, may interfere to darken the present bright prospects. m - It is generally believed that "one good bar vest" in the West will bring us out of the "hard times' fair and square.

Under the above tremendous head the Cleveland Herald, noted for the mysterioasest.kind of . mysterious disappearances aad- the atartliageet : , of mysteries, accounts for the plowing through, some old graveyard as follows: . Yesterday, while Mr. James Eaton, of Rock-port in this county, was plowing oa his. farm, ho was startled by the ploaghshare turning up some haman bones. Mr. Eaton, assisted by Mr. T. ' R. Irons, proceeded to dig around the spot, and ' succeeded ia tnrniDg op tbe skeletons of three persons. Two of tbe skeletons had all double teeth and sound. The three skeletons lay close-together, and were only about a foot beaeatb the surface, - About a year ago Mr. Eaton ploughed up a skeleton near the same place. The position of the skeleton, the fact of their being buried at such a shallow depth, and the whole circamstaat ces surronnding tbe matter render, it probablo that some tragedy is connected with this myste . rious affair. The farm is near the month of Rocky Riv2r. - ;.. ; Progjes Impossible. The Goal Beached ' at a Bound! We call this the age of progress. It is so, But ia some departments of science discoveries bave been made,and practical systems introduced,-which leave nothing to be desired ia the way of improvement, and which, ia fact, preclude progress by giving us perfection at the outset For example, when Professor Holloway, some treaty . five years ago, gave to the world his inestimable remedies, he seems to have left nothing even for himself to achieve, ia the treatment of human maladies. The progress of the demand for hia-Pills and Ointment has, iudeed, been unparal-elled in the history of medicine ; but he has found no reason to altar a single ingredient or vary a proportion. We therefore class the eove . reign antidotes for external and interact diseases with which that distinguished medical reformer has blessed the world, ameng the inventions which are perfected at their birth. - Our method of arriving at a correct appreciation of the respective merits of opposing systems, .,-is by comparison. Now, we bave seen a great, deal of what is called regular practice, and do not hesitate to say that it fails more frequently than it succeeds. This is not the case with Holloway s Pills and Ointment. Ia many instancea some of which should be specified if spare-permitted we have seen these remedies effect complete and permanent 'cures, when eminent members of the faculty had exhausted their repertories without finding aaything that would : even alleviate the agonies of their patients. ;-Testimony confirmatory of our own observations on tbe subject is continually pouring in from all parts of the Union, and we cannot refuse ere ; dence alike to bar owa senses, tbe common seas of the ; public, and tbe almost universal opinion m of our brethren of the press. The case as between the Faculty and Profes- sor Holloway seems to stand thus : The faculty have the prestige of antiquity, authority and usa?e. ' . . . . Holloway, on the other hand, is not. a man of mouldy maxims. Small respect has he for Galen and gammon. He cites ao authorities, save liv- . ing witnesses and contemporary facia. A few pages snfSce to develop his system and embracw. his simple directions. He denounces mercury, and and all corrosive poisons, and does not b lieve that life can be saved by draining it fenr- tains. Above all, he fnrnishes the whole civil, ized, and no small portion of the semi-barbarian and savage world, with a Pill and ao Oixtmest, which appear to accomplish all that the Faculty aim at, but in five cases ont of six fail ta effeew For diseases of the stomach, the liver, the bowels, and kidneys, as well as for ordinary, pulmonary affections, the Pills are absolute speciSc; and the sufferer from external disorders or injuries may recover under the operatioa of th OurTwcirr, when nothing elselwiil save him.

JAHES X PAUIDIHO. The late James Kirke Paulding was born in Dutches coo oty, N. YW th 22d of tVagnst; 1779, and id the Terj crisis of tbe great war of the Beeolutlon. The red-coats disturbed him in his cradle, hi family being forced to take refuge from the invaders in Westchester county; "where the childhood and youth of-Paulding were pass ed, and where he seems to bare received what ever scholastic and regular education he ever en joyed. Cone to man's estate. Mr. Paulding re moved to New York, then, as now. the City of the Empire State, though not, as now, of the ha tron, and fell at once into intimate relations with Washington Irving, whose elder brother had mar ried Paulding's sister. In January, 1807, under the almost nominal supervision of William Irving, the &rst number of "Salmagundi' made its appearance, bearing with it two aspiring young" New Yorkers aod their literary fortunes. The wholesome inflo ence which Irving's peculiar refinement, patience and breadth of nature exerted upon the more vehement and less original constitution of his colleague's mind, is sensibly' marked in the papers which Paulding contributed to- this collec tion. Left to himself, the . infant who had been put to flight by Sir William Howe's royalists, turned instinctively in his manhood upon these premature enemies, and Mr. Paulding's pen was consecrated to the chastisement of ' British outrages" of all sorts and kinds. Be -opened the war of 1812 with a satire; entitled "John Bull and Brother Jonathan," which w 11 be read as a study of American manners and feelings in the arly and captious days of our National Inde pendence, long after it has ceased either to sting the "effete monarch v? over seas, or to rejoice the cockles of democratic hearts in those backwoods cabins where atone it would now be likely to find an audience tor its own sharp sake. The New York of 1812 was, of course, enchanted with the work, and for a time Mr. Paulding quite eclipsed his friend, in the public eye. He followed up his first "hit" with a second, "The Lay of the Scottish FidJle," issued in 1821; and then brou't himself to the notice of tbe political leaders of the day and particularly of Mr. Mauison by a pamphlet entitled "The United States and England."' In 1814 he was named, by the President, Secretary of the Board of Navy Commissioners. From this office be was subsequently advanced to tht of Navy Agent at New York, which he held for many years; and finally, under Mr. Van Buren's administration, was called to the Cabinet as Secretary of tbe Navy. This was his last political preferment; and, although al. ways known as a resolute and a devoted Democrat, Mr. Paulding never exerted any very com-manding influence in the political world. His official duties did not distract him from the pursuit of literary fame. In 1815 he issued "Letters from the South by a Northern Man." In 1818 be attempted a still bolder flight in "The Bnckwoodstnan,' a poem in aix cantos, and in 1822, after an interval which had produced J,A Sketch of Old England" and "The New Munchausen," he came forward as a norelist in "Ko-nifgmarke, or Old Times in the New Worla." It is in his character of novelist trat the name of Psulding is best known, and in this character hat he is most likely to be remembered. "Ko iggmarke paints the story of the Swedes in Delaware, already caricatured by Irving in Kipckbocker's History of New York." "The Dutchman's Fireside," another glance into tbe past, was more keenly taken and more, vigorously reported. This novel, which appeared in 1831 became very popular, was translated into French. t was translated, of course, into Dutch also, and we believe, into the' Swedish, Danish, and German, as well. "Westward Ho!" a novel of Ken tucky life; "The Puritan and his Daughter," the Tales of a Good Woman -by a Doubtful Gentle man;" aud the "Book of St. Nicholas," com plete the catalogue of Mr. Paulding's works of fiction. If to these we add the "3Ierry Tales of Three Wise Men of Golbam," a satire in tbe vein, though not :in the fashion, of Rejbaud's Jerome Palurot-," "The Traveller's Guide, or New Pilgrim's Progress," wherein the follies and foibles of British bagmen on their travels Are set forth and scourged; a "Life of Washington," and a volume of "American Comedies," compos-el by Mr. Paulding, in company with one of bis sons, and published in 1847, we have before us tbe avowed results of Mr. Paulding's long literary life. Bet these bear hardly an adequate proportion to bis anonymous productions. Rather, a writer than an author, Mr. Paulding ran over into all sorts of compositions, and carried into all the thoroughly positive and emphatic quali ties ot bis character. Death of a Lorain Pioneer. Mr. Ezekiel Barnes, aged 90 years, died ia Amherst on the 5 th inst. Forty -six -fears ago says the Elyria Democrat, Mr. Barnes came to Ohio from Massachusetts on foot, and located in the then wilderness of Amherst. He served bis country as a soldier io.1812, and for 69 succes sive years exercised the rights of an elector. He had been a husband 65 years, and had never been married hot once.

We make this claim in reference to Sugar not Syrup. As the proof of the pudding, &c, we will only mention the little fact, that no other Evaporator has yet made Sugar while Cook's has. 44 The very construction of the apperatus for hich they claim this exclusive virtue, is such to afford no facilities, except that of simple evap oration.; We need none- the rapid alternate subjection to heated and cooling surfaces defecates to a charm, Ileal is the best cleansing agent, as the Messrs.

And so we might continue ad injtnilum But we do not certify our machine into notoriety. We let the people see it work, and at the Fairs, we serve other Evaportors as we did the Messrs. Cooper, at Zaneavilla last Fall. We beat them out of sight in rapidity of Evaporation and in quality of syrup 1 That's the reason we always get the first premiums. We make it so much quicker, better and cleaner than any body else. " How this industrious inventor of evapora tors, fljing machines, tooth brushes. &c has succeeded, according to . his owu assertion, in making out of green aod frost bitten cane, dur ing the winter and spring of '08 and 59, over 900 pounds of sugar, and during the winter and spring of '59 and '60 nearly 1800 lbs. of sugar on bis mysterious evaporator. Now, this is not incredible, for the public must bear in mind that sorgho anger, owing to the novelty of the thing, sell to interesting parties at a ver comfortable figure, and this sagacious concocter of humbugs, who possesses a handsome camp of maple trees, was not the man to let good "runs of the last two years pass unimproved." Here is an open charge of fraud. The sngar Mr. Cook has palmed off upon the public as Sorghum was not Sorghum, but maple 1 . And Mr. Cook's object . in such . a paltry fraud was the comfortable figure " he could realize in the sale of it."--- .' - " Now, Mr. Cook has never sold a pound of Sor ghum.

With what contempt then must we look apon that disappointed avarice which would prompt the Messrs.

They say : . "It is a matter of too much importance to be monopolized by any particular inventor.' Of course its a monopoly. That i what Mr. Cook got his patent-for. It is what all patents are for, to secure to the inventor the monopoly of his invention for a term of years as a reward for his thought, toil and- struggle ; and when avaricious men regardless of tha inventor's rights seek to rob Lim of his jest does by bringing on an issitatioo, our government inflicts a penalty npon such infringement, and the Messrs.

In conclusion, Mr. Editor, we will for the ben fit of the public irsert Mr. Cook's circular to is agents : BLYMYER, BATES i DAY. Maxsfield, January, 1850. Deah Sir: You are aware since the anoear- ance tf my Evaporator, known as Cook's Portable Sugar Evaporator, many imitations have sprung up, designed by some trivial changes to evade my Patent and. thus deprive ine of the compensation justly due my labors and studies, and which the laws of our country are intended to secure to every inventor. ' Allow me respectfully to inform yon that on December 20th, a Re-issue of my Letters Pat ent was granted me, in which is more fully secured to me what I was origiually entitled to. The following extract from tbe Re issue will g've you tha lead ng ppinrs secured to me. : Yon will observe that :n the patent I have patented a froces?, and 1 claim not only the Evaporator specified, but any pan which embodies in its con struction or use any of the principles of my pro cess, or any part or the machine by which I have made my process available: - - "My inventioc is a very important one from this fact: The syrup is heated intensely at tbe centre of the pan, then partially cooled as it Uows at the sues, ine rapid ebullition through the centre of tbe pan causes tbe scum and fecu- ent matter to be thrown off to the ends of the channels, and rest at the cool sides of the pan until removed by: skimmers, the impurities o( one channel being' prevented from passing through tha next channel by the ebullition at the centre. The frequent cleansing of the stream as it p isses from - channel to channel, secures its perfect defecation, and dispenses with the usual process of defecation by chemical agents. . "My invention is also very important because it renders practicable the boilixo of scoab juices wbilb is kotiox. and consequently a shallow flowing , stream instead of a deep still body of liquor is exposed to the fire.- Having a hallow flowing stream pass over the heating surface effects a uniform boiling without scorching the juice, and also enables the operator to know at a glance tbe Condition ef the svrno. and so time its flow that it shall reach - the ' outlet f the pan just as it arrives at the point of crystali-zation, and thereby avoid the danger of sobjec-jeciing it too long to the action of heat, and thus prevent crystati ration. :; - -'- - - " - "Mr inveotioa is Important because it allows of. the syrup bein kept a longer or a shorter time in contact wita ne beating- surface aceor ding as" the stream is" shallow or deep, or the fire intense or slight. : : - .What I claim aad wish ta teca're by Letters ratent u n ..-r "FiasT.

The convention to form a provisional govern ment for the Territory of Arizona, met at Tuc son o a the 2d of April, and consisted of thirty-two delegates. James A. Lucas was chosen president and Granville Oury secretary. The convention was not at first very harmonious, but a constitution was adopted, finally, with but one dissenting voice. It provides for the ordinary legislative, executive, and judicial department of government, but gives the governor extraon dinary powers, among which is the appointment of the other officers of the government, except legislative ana county omcers. vine convention ballotted for governor, and elected Dr. L. S. Ow- ngs, of Mesiila, who, on the next day, was duly inaugurated, and the following appointments were announced by him: - Lieutenant Governor Ignatio Orrantia. 6 Mesiila. Secretary of State James A. Lucas, of Misil-la. " . .. - . Territorial Treasurer M. Aldricb, of Tucson. Marshal Samuel G. Bean, of Mesiila. Comptroler J. Howard Wells, of Tucsoo.

The first session of tbe legislature will be held in Tucson on the first Monday in March, 186U A protest was adopted against the removal of United States troops, or the abandonment of military posts now established in Arizonia. The following resolution was adopted: . Resolved, That we have entire confidence in the wise, patriotic, and pure Administration of our venerable President, James Buchanan, fa'ly believing that the only aim he has had in carrying out his Government has been for the good of the whole country. Also, believing that if some of the wholesome acts of. his Administration have failed to become effective, it has been cans ed by the opposition of factious demagogues, whose aims have not been for the good of the people, but for their own personal aggrandizement.Th State House Interesting Tacts. ; Inquiries are frequently made about the cost of tbe new State House, dimensions, e-, which few are able to answer satisfactorily. The last report of the State House Commissioners shows th&Cie total cost of the building up to November 15, 1859, was $1,330,106,20. To this sum should . be added $ 16,000 - appropriated last March, making $1,347,106,20. Tbe building is to be completed by the first day of October next. The State House is 304 feet long, 184 feet wide, and its bight to the top of the cupola 150 feet. Its corner stone was laid . on the 4th of July, 1838, and over twenty years have been occupied in iu construction. : A good deal of the Stone work was done by tbe convict labor. The work oa the Artesian well will be resumed i a about a week. When the contrictor ceased last fail, the well had been carried to a depth of 2,340 feet. There is now ia it 123 feet of iroo tubing 4j laches in diameter, extending from the surface to the first lime rock, and 155 of 3 J inches in diameter, inserted to prevent the slate from crombliag, from; 1461 feet to .1896 feet from the surface. No injury has resalted to the well by the boring having been, suspended. State Journal. Defining1 Its Position. The Philadelphia Hvening Journal, which has ably advocated the formation of the "Constila tional Union Party," having been mistaken as an organ of that party and accused of playing into the hands of the Democratic party, thus defines its position: . - "Ours is the 'flag of the Union,' and -under it -we shall fight Sectionalism aod Abolitionism, oo matter what false and specious names they may assame, just: as long as wo have strength and life to strike a blow for the. whole couotry and its Constitntion, against the domestic and for-eiga foes of both.

Revolt in. the Ohio Penitentiary Proven- - : ted. . Through an orderly, well dispo scd convict Warden Van Sljke learned last week of a con tem plated revolt of the prisoners in the Peniten tiary to culminate Saturday evening ia the din ing room, white they more than a regiment of hardened, reckless men were assembled for supper.. The plan was gotten up by a desperate convict named Blackburn, from Gallia county and at various times communicated, until the whole thousand and sixty men were informed of the plot, which was, to overpower and kill the guards, when all were assembled ia the vast din ing room, then to force the large gate at the southeast corner, kill the guards on the wall, if necessary and when outside of the walls every man take ca:e of himself. Ti e discovery of the plot by the Warden, however, frustrated . the bloody design, and on Saturday evening when each company of men were told by the guards of the discovery a more chop fallen looking set of villians could not be imagined. Previously, however, the ringleaders had been taken from the shops and dungeoned, where a little restric tion will, probably be exercised. There can be no doubt but that wholesale . slaughter, rapine and plundering were prevented by the timely disclosure of the matured plans of tbe desperadoes; for what a volcano of vice and pent up pas sions is concentrated in the hearts of that regi ment ot confined villainy. J Penitentiaries are dear luxuries, a fact that can be appreciated after 'two or three attempts to revolt, when a constant dread of something terrible lurks ta the minds of citisens. The. sooner a new penitentiary is built and three or four hundred convicts moved into it from this the better for Columbus and all parties concerned State Journal. - Crop Prospects in the "West. The Chicago Journal has the following items in regard to crops in the West: A gentleman who bas jost re tared from a trip through various parts of Illinois, expresses the Opinion that more land has been sown with wheat, and is being planted with corn, this year, than ever belore. As a general thing, the grain prospects are favorable thus far in tbe season, though in some localities the winter wheat has been badly frozen. In Will county, and" throughout that region, a great breadth of land has been sown with oats. If the weather continuesi good, and Provi-dence smiles cpon the labors of the husbandman until the harvest-time, the West will no doubt this year have an unprecedented yield of grain. With occasional exceptions, the crop prospects in the North West are represented as in the highest degree encouraging. Yet it is rather early, in the season to predict with any degree of certainty. Late frosts, dry weather and other visitations, may interfere to darken the present bright prospects. m - It is generally believed that "one good bar vest" in the West will bring us out of the "hard times' fair and square. ' - The Solid Men. Ia Boston there are one hundred and twenty persons, firms or corporation that are taxed for a quarter of a millioa dollars or upwards. Na thaniel J.

Under the above tremendous head the Cleveland Herald, noted for the mysterioasest.kind of . mysterious disappearances aad- the atartliageet : , of mysteries, accounts for the plowing through, some old graveyard as follows: . Yesterday, while Mr. James Eaton, of Rock-port in this county, was plowing oa his. farm, ho was startled by the ploaghshare turning up some haman bones. Mr. Eaton, assisted by Mr. T. ' R.

The three skeletons lay close-together, and were only about a foot beaeatb the surface, - About a year ago Mr. Eaton ploughed up a skeleton near the same place. The position of the skeleton, the fact of their being buried at such a shallow depth, and the whole circamstaat ces surronnding tbe matter render, it probablo that some tragedy is connected with this myste . rious affair.

It is so, But ia some departments of science discoveries bave been made,and practical systems introduced,-which leave nothing to be desired ia the way of improvement, and which, ia fact, preclude progress by giving us perfection at the outset For example, when Professor Holloway, some treaty . five years ago, gave to the world his inestimable remedies, he seems to have left nothing even for himself to achieve, ia the treatment of human maladies. The progress of the demand for hia-Pills and Ointment has, iudeed, been unparal-elled in the history of medicine ; but he has found no reason to altar a single ingredient or vary a proportion. We therefore class the eove . reign antidotes for external and interact diseases with which that distinguished medical reformer has blessed the world, ameng the inventions which are perfected at their birth. - Our method of arriving at a correct appreciation of the respective merits of opposing systems, .,-is by comparison. Now, we bave seen a great, deal of what is called regular practice, and do not hesitate to say that it fails more frequently than it succeeds. This is not the case with Holloway s Pills and Ointment. Ia many instancea some of which should be specified if spare-permitted we have seen these remedies effect complete and permanent 'cures, when eminent members of the faculty had exhausted their repertories without finding aaything that would : even alleviate the agonies of their patients. ;-Testimony confirmatory of our own observations on tbe subject is continually pouring in from all parts of the Union, and we cannot refuse ere ; dence alike to bar owa senses, tbe common seas of the ; public, and tbe almost universal opinion m of our brethren of the press. The case as between the Faculty and Profes- sor Holloway seems to stand thus : The faculty have the prestige of antiquity, authority and usa?e. ' . . . . Holloway, on the other hand, is not. a man of mouldy maxims. Small respect has he for Galen and gammon. He cites ao authorities, save liv- . ing witnesses and contemporary facia. A few pages snfSce to develop his system and embracw. his simple directions. He denounces mercury, and and all corrosive poisons, and does not b lieve that life can be saved by draining it fenr- tains. Above all, he fnrnishes the whole civil, ized, and no small portion of the semi-barbarian and savage world, with a Pill and ao Oixtmest, which appear to accomplish all that the Faculty aim at, but in five cases ont of six fail ta effeew For diseases of the stomach, the liver, the bowels, and kidneys, as well as for ordinary, pulmonary affections, the Pills are absolute speciSc; and the sufferer from external disorders or injuries may recover under the operatioa of th OurTwcirr, when nothing elselwiil save him.
