Madam C loaded her pistol forthwith, and went ioto the garden, followed by the company. The twenty paces were meaeered, the mercautile hero pulled oat his watcb, gallantly refusing one not much larger than a franc, offered by ibeladr. and fearleaaly assumed bis place.

CinciJtnat Gazette, The SabbU in the ffoon. The Hindostanee believe that tbey can see a a rabbit in the moon. The Chinese, when thev represent the moon, paint in its centre a rabbit pounding rice. This singular belief recalls a curious and touching legend, which in early times passed from India to China. There is near Be nares a forest in the middle of which is a reli gious monument, called that of the Three Quadruped. . The following story explains to us the canae of its consecration t Three animals, a fox. a monkey, and a rabbit, lived most friendly .together in the forest. One day the master Of the gods, under the garb of a poor old man, ap. peered before them and thus addressed them t " My children, do yon love this calm, retired placet D you never feel afraid ?n 44 The thick grass is our carpet," they answer ed. " We walk through the shady forest, and though of diferent families, wa live in harmony. We are peaceful and aappy . " I heard of k." said the ol ! man ; M and there- fere furfnigtb bardeo of toy age, I came from 'a very great dietaoce expressly to see yoo. But to-day I sueTer greatly from hanger.' Could yoa give me something to eat?" ; : At woe the three quadrupeds, moved with compasskm and love, leaped away iw three different directions to seek for the desired food. After galloping by the river's brink,' the fox seized a silvery arp, fresh and dripping, and brought it betweew his teet. The monkey Hi m bed the hichest trees, and descended with the most exquisite lowers, and had nothing to offer the old man. The latter said, with sadness. : 44 The monkey and the fox have bad pity upon me. Why tea the rabbit disptsed.me?" On hearing these words e reproaeb, the rab bit said to the fox and the monkey. M My friend v snake here a pile of wood and dad leaves, and yoa wiif sooo know what I think." When they had finished the heap of wood and dead leaves, the rabit set ft oa fire,: aud the said, "Good old man, I am little and feeble, I have looked everywhere, and I found nothing worthy to bring to yoa. But I do dare offer my humble body for your repast." At these words, he jumped ftrto the fire, and there met his death. The god then appeared under his teal features, gathered up the bones 6f tbe poor little rabbit and, after a painful sigh, said to the fox and the monkey, I am deeply touched by this sacrifice, and as a reward, I wball place the rabbit in tbe center of the moon, in order that his memory nsav never perish." Hilldng Often. The following item we fin j going the rounds of the press, without any rark of " patefftity as is too often the ease : ; Every practical dairyman knows that cows milked three times a day give a larger quantity of milk than if milked twice, though it may not be quite so rich i and in young cows, no doubt it baa a tendency to promote the dereloptffent of the ttdder and milk veins. Frequent milking stimulates an increas ed seereti in, and therefore oaght never to be neglected in tbe milk dairy, either in the ease of fotrn eodi or lafge mitkerV at the height Of fhi flow.

The llot. y'M We leara from, ear exchanges, says the N. T. Ifctkodiil, that the potato-rot, which Bntil re cently, has manifested itself but little, is tow assuming a very threatning aspect ia many localities. One farmer ia Wayne conaty, N. says that there are many fields ia that viclaity not worth digging, and have consequently been abandoned. Farmers sboald not delay another day, bat get their potatoes bat of the ground as soon as possible, and allow them to dry. By this means the infection can be prevented from spreading,' and the tubers not affected before be ing dag can be saved. Though no disease appear by the time this week's number of our paper reaches its subscribers, the diging should be set about in earnest. Tbe Enrol Jfeie-Yorker says that hundreds of bushels are every year lost ia Western New-York by delaying? digging nntil it is so late that they cannot be safely housed before hard frosts. This remark wilt apply equal. ly well to many warmer latitudes. Water-Melon Molasses. A man in Ross county, Ohio, stales that he made, leak aeason, from water melons grown on one acre of ground, eighteen barrels of ayrup. which sold for 80 cents a gallon, giving $4C0 for the acre of land and the labor. Tbe Ohio Cultivator gives the process as follows : " Take onl. the soft part of the melon, which can be scooped out with the hand or a wooden spoon) rob it through a wire sieve into a. barrel or tub, then strain out the juice through a cloth straiaert boil down the juice in a copper kettle. ast as you would cider or . maple-sugar water, and be careful not to scorch it when, nearly done. For a preserving syrup for fruit this is excellent, and also for many other oses. An acre of good melons will yield eighteen or twenty barrels of syrup. : Episcopal Chnrch in the Suites.

Prince of Wales is mostly derived from the Duchy of Lancaster, and from his Wardensbipof the Sianoeries at Cornwall. As Lord ftenf-ew is the first who has been entitled to these since George IV, came to the throne ia 1820, and as they have been yearly collected and kept in trust for the next- Prince, he is a-bandantly supplied, although without any settle ment fi on Parliament. The other members of the Royal family have annual incomes by Parliamentary settlement about as follows: Queen Victoria, $1,925,000; Prince Albert, $300 000; Duchess of Kent, mother of Victoria, $150,000; Leopold, of Belgium, undo of the Queen, $250, ' 080; and the other auats aui cousins of the Queen j $100,000 more. Parliament does not nsually make a settlement upon the Princes Roy al till the occasion of their marriage.

Judge Dooglas having stated, a few days ago, ia Virginia, that be would treat the Disunioaiets in the same way General Jackson did the Nalli-fiers when he was President, reminds as of an anecdote Of the great mad. During the nullifi-Ctiou in. South Carolina, after General Jackson's proclamation, the Governor of Virginia sent a request to the President, in case it became necessary to send United. States troops down Sooth, not to send tbem through that State; if he did, they would have to pass over the Governor's dead body. The President received the message and replied: lf it becomes -necessary for the United States troops to go to Sooth Carol! oa I, aa Commander ia chief of the Army, will be at their head; -I will march them by the shortest root; thej may pass through Virginia, but, by the Eternal, if the Governor makes' it necessary to pass over hi dead body, it will be found that I wilt have previously taken off both bis ears.' : During a dinner glrea by Fernando t7ood la bis mayoralty of New-Tors: ia 1S55, Gen.

A Union Township Meeting' of the Dem-crats and Bell and Everett Parties, at :.:;Sparta-; The 2Zd of Sept. 1860, was a day that will long be remembered by the Democracy of South Bloomfield township. At sun-rise our National flag could be seen, with the names of Douglas and Johnson floating in the breese, from the top of many a young hickory, planted in our town for the occasion. During the forenoon the weather was lowery and windy, and ia all probat bility, lessened the magnitude of our meeting. Yet, notwithstanding, the unpropitious aspect of affairs in the cbmmenct ment of onr rally at 12 o'clock, we were happily greeted by a Very large and splendid delegation from Chester and Harmony townships with tbe MJL Gilead Brass Band in attendance. Scarcely had the marshals of the day conducted the first delegation to tbe grova prepared for the ; speaking, ere a second delegation still more imposing to behold made its appearance from another direction, in conmaev tion with which was a large company ot ladies and gentlemen oa horse-back, rendered - more joyous and happy by the musio of the Clark Street Brass Band; and thus tbey came pouring in from every direction until the little towa of Sparta contained, according to the opinions of many, some 1500 or 2000 people. According to the announcement of the Chief Marshal, the people . had, collected around the stand erected for the Speakers at 2 o'clock P. M. The meeting was called to order by Gen. H. F. Randolph; and Mr. By ram Beers, Esq., of Chester township, was appointed President and S. Roberts, P. B. Ayers,;G. Clark and John Broke w. Vice Presidents, and A. A. Morehouse and J. Guire, Secretaries. - Mr. B. L. S wetland was then called oa to ad dress the meeting, npon which (hat gentleman arose, and after making a few preliminary re marks, coovnenced, - and highly interested the audience with a clear, comprehensive and argumentative speech. By reference to the early history of our Government, the recorded history of those who formed that Government, as well as the present position of men and parties, he must haveproven conclusively to every unpre judiced mind present t . I. .That the principle of Popular Sovereignty as adrocated by S. A. Douglas and the Democratic party, in! regard to the actual citizens of States and Territories, to control their own affairs in their own way without the interference of Congress, the same to-daj a claimed by the original 13 Colonies and reaffirmed in tbe articles of confederation and in our present Constitution. ' " '- ' II. That the same falacy was ca'lfed oat in the settlement and admission of. new States into the Union under the present administration of oar Government, and .reafflrmed by "the old Whig and Democratic parties in 18-19-50-, and 1852 and also reaffirmed by the Democratic aad American parties in 1856 and 1860. " III. That the claims set up by the Republi can party, that tbey are the true followers . of Washington, Adams, Jefferson and other Revolutionary Patriots and Statesmen, is untrue, aad tbey have no right or title to that claim whatever, politically. ' IV. That the record of the Republican party does establish beyond all dispute an avowed determination to establish Negro suffrage, equality, socially and politically.; V. That the Repablican party is Sectional, Revolutionary, and, ia principle, at war with tbe Constitution and Union of these States.

We have been blest with bountiful crops of all kinds the present season, Tf-ere will be a large surplus of grain shipped from Iowa this fall. Now, friend - Harper, I have received several letters from some of my Democralio friends in old Eaox, they appear to be anxious to know the position I occupy in tha great political struggle that now agitates the American people. I ; suppose tbey tbinlt from tbe number of candi dates before the people, that I would find some i dificalty in selecting a standard bearer. I would j say to my inquiring nnds, that I know of but oae Democratic Candidate and that is the "Lit tle Giant,'? who was placed before the Democracy of the Nation, by the National Convention, whose nomination will be ratified by the Ameri can people at the ballot box. Iowa is safe for Douglas beyond a doobu The changes that have taken place since the nominettou in favor of the Democracy in onr county are truly encouraging. Hundreds of men who left the Democrats four years ago, are now foremost in the battle. We nave neara out Here, that a man by the name of Old Abe," living some where in Illinois, a rail splitter by trade, is a candidate for Salt River, and we have concldded that we will be able to elect him ia Iowa thie fall. To give yoa some idea of the rote in this Stat, last week 1 traveled in company with a1 Republican friend to McGregor's, on tbe Misa ssippi. The road was lined with teams, bawling wheat to the river. He proposed that I should canvass for Douglas and he. for Lincoln. Now, I will give you the result : 65 for Douglas, 49 for Lincoln, 3 for Bell, and I for Breckinridge. I asked the Rreckfofidge man if he was not a Postmas ter, aod he said he was. : Yon may look for days in Iowa, and if yoa : find e Breckinridge man; yon would be safe ia swearing that he held some petty post ofice.

Andrews, and call the special attention of our readers to itl V Gen. Andrews is a warm admirer, and has been a decided supporter of John C. Breckinridge, but, like an honest aud patriotic citiien, he sees bis duty and advances to its performance. uYole tolid against Lincoln is his motto. He admits what all men know to be true, that there is no prospect in Ohio for the success of Mr. Breckinridge, and to support him is only to aid the cause of Lincoln, which Gen.' Andrews Is SbwiHing 16 do, aod therefore be declares it to be the duty of all Democrats to u tote tolid against Lincoln" to go in and give the 4ih of July Electoral Ticket their support TU views enieftafned by Gen. Andrews, and1 expressed in his letter, will fiad a response in the hearts of all the honest Democrats in Ohio, who have been" inclined to the support of Mr. Breek-inridge. Those who pursue... a different course from the one suggested by him, and continue to org's opposition to the 4th of July Electoral Ticket, may be set down as favorable to Lincoln's election, and Working for the success of the Republican!. We believe, however, the number will be few. Cen. Andrew's has discharged a duty to himself and hrs country, for which : he will receive the thanks of all patriotic citizens. We ask all Union men to remember the motto of General Andrews Vote solid against Lincoln!" mPCfSTAirrLETTER PROil GE2T. S. t7. ANDREWS. - Honest Srecionfidge iien, Beaa Itf ; CotXMsts, Oct. l?ib, 1860. Eortoa Ohio STATrstfAXt" I have noticed in your paper that the Dotifjtat Electoral Ticket, made' at" Harrieburg, Pennsjlvanta, has been withdrawn, and that the Democracy cf that State will probably consolidate their vote npon the regular Democratic Electoral Ticket made at Reading. This I am glad to see, for a divided vote of tbe Democracy, in Pennsylvania, would undoubtedly secure tbe State to Lincoln, while a nailed vote of the Democratic party in the old Keystone State will unquestionably tare the country from Black Repablican rule. . -'s If this movement is good policy, and right in Pennsylvania, it certainly would be expedient in Ohio. Ia view of lhe recent elections in these States and in Indiana, what are we to expect 1b November next, if the Democracy remain divided? The prospect stares' as in the face, that ihe Repablican party' will be ; fa possession cf tbe Government, and tie "irrepressible conflict wili be vsed o&lil "sJl sball become free Slates, or all slave Euies.' It is not a question simply about Terr'.'.ctial Government, but it is a contest between He North a&d the South, madefy the Hf7-i::;aa rrty. w'uh'lleiw-X-f eoaverlirj fcU.iC.Ua iz.iCii ru:-3.

I would much prefer John C Breckinridge for PreaideotOif the;tJuited S'ates. I Lke tha man, his principles, aud his. platform. I believe he is a true prtriot and high-minded statesman; and, if elected President, that he would exert his great ability to preserve che Union and foster the interests of the country. But la Ohio he cannot be elected; therefore, I think it is best to tote tolid against Lincoln. If we pur soe the same policy "ia Ohio that is adopted ia Pennsjlvaota, our cause will triumph ia Norem ber. Yours truly S. W. Aroxtrs. Tom Corwiri in Illinois Fea'rfal Hebuke: The StateJBegisler, of the 17 th insC, says: "On Monday last, Mr. Tom Corwin addressed a Republican meeting at Jacksonville. When he was about closing, a note was handed to him. He opened it, and glaucing at the first lines he saw it was an invitation. By way, of affording himself a preteit fof not speaking any oftener than be bad bargained for, he told the crowd that he hadjust received an invitation, which he would read.; Mr. Corwin then read the note.- It was couched in the most polite terms, and ex tended an earnest and pressing invitation to the Hon. Tom Corwin to visit only oae mile distant tbe 4'obio of Btrden?t who had been welcomed in Mexico by bloody hands to a hospita ble grave? Corwin was thunderstruck. He put j the note down, took it op, twisted it, hung his head, and said nothing. Tbe. multitude, about equally divided V a Democrats aud Repub licans, looked on the pitiable eight in silence. The rebuke was a crushing one. It was a com-1 plete discomfiture. Corwin at list essayed a' justification of his course on the Mexican war, j failed, provoked the Jeering taunts of the crowd,' and left the stand, and quit Jacksonville. The' same reproach will follow him wherever he goes in Illinois. He can speak at no place ia Middle' and Southern Illinois that does not contain a monument to the heroes that fell in Mexico.
