The list embraces the Illustrated weeklies, the regular monthlies, and ueneral miscellany of a most interesting character. Cif Considerable excitement was occasioned on High street near Broad, yesterday evening, by the efforts of a colored woman to have ber husband arrested for alleged brutal treatment. The woman's countenance betokened the visitation ot something beside the hand of love, and she was couns -ll(0 procure a warrant for the arrest of the miscreant. tW Commissioner Delano decides that when parties a re engaged in thi manufac ture of goods of any description, by fur nishing, material, paying for the work, fc though not personally engaged in the process i manufacture, but conducting It through agents or superintendents, they are liable to the tax Imposed, by the act ot March 31, 1868, on manufactures. r ' Choicb Alc and Beer for Family Use.

As an inducement to emi gration from the North to the Southern States, it is announced that land in that region, adapted to the cultivation of the grains, vegetables and fruits of the temperate zone, may be purchased on reasonable terms, and that with part cash, long credits for the remaining intallments will be given., Farms already cleared and drained are, it is stated, now offered from one -quarter to one-twentieth oi what they brought before the war. It has been Bug-' gested that tbe money required merely to convey a family to the Northwest or Pacific would purchase a farm of 300 or 400 ' acres In Virginia. Opening of thb New York Canal. Water ! was let Into the locks of tha New York canal, as we learn by the Troy, N. Y, Times, on Saturday night, and naviga tion would have promptly opened that evening, but it was found a boat laden with, iron, lying in the three mile level between Troy and Schenectady could not float, and consequently the water had to be drawn oft" and the -boat removed. At 10 o'clock on Tnesda tbe canal was two-thirds full. and the prospect was that the first boat would pass up Wednesday afternoon. Everything, so far as heard from, Is all riht between Troy and Buffalo. . - -. Great Reduction ix CARr its. Messrs.

Thb Massachusetts Mutual Lifk In- surakcs Company. The business of this company, so ably represented in his city by the special agent, Mr. E. J. Fairfield, Is rapidly extending, and the company Is making qnick progress to the front rank ol the most popular organizations of the day. Mr. Fall field is an affable, courteous gen tleman, with whom it is a pleasure to transact business, and. we feet confident (hat nnder his careful direction the company he represents will meet with and retain tbe favor of the public at large. A .Nkw VKLOCiPBDe. A new invention called the rocking chair velocipede, the motive power of which Is supplied through the backward and ior ward motion of the chair, is one of the most recent inventions. It is thus described : The new machine is a three wheeled vehicle, and weighs about 100 pounds. The rocking chair in which the driver sits and propels the machine, is placed between the forward and back wheels, and is connected with a rod to the crank in the axle of the hind wheels, which gives the propelling power as the chair Is rocked backward and forward by the oo- cupanU The steering apparatus is attached to the forward wheel, and the whole oper ation of guiding and running the machine is very simple and almost exertlonlt ss. It is adapted as well to ladies as to gentlemen, and is said to be capable of doing six miles an hour. Thb Laws of the Last Lkoirlatur The volume ol laws passed by the last Leg islature will be large beyond precedent The municipal code, In which are embodied all the laws for the government of cities. tawna and Incorporated villages, will of it self make a volume of nearly as many pages as the general laws ol any previous session. When to this is added tne code or criminal procedure, and the other laws of a general nature, tbe volume will bo a mammoth one. The two codes, eriminal and municipal, are pronounced, by those competent to ludge, the best that could be made, and re flects high credit on the Legislature ibat adopted them. Tbe delay, if any. In the publication of the volume of laws, will be caused by the fact above stated. Fatal Accident. Yesterday morning, Nicholas Connell, a switchman employed on tbe Columbus, Chicago and Indiana Central Railway, was instantly killed by btine run over by shifting engine No. 19, near ue repair shops oi the road. Tbe en sins was approaching the Union derot when tbe unfortunate man attempted to lump on the platlorm In front, but missed his footing and fell on tbe track ; tbe wheels of the locomotive passed over his body above his hips, cntting it in two parte. Mr. Connell lived In the Third Ward, and leaves a wife and Infant child Tbe verdict of the Coroner's Jury was in accordance, with the above facts. We un derstand that tbe deceased was cautiont d but a few hours previous to the accident to be more earef ul in regard to his move ments about moving trains, but manifested no desire to profit by the advice. Killed on the Railroad. Passenger train No. X, Etstern bound over the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, Central Ohio Di vision, when a short distance past the Curve, at Clay pool's Mills, struck a man walking on tbe track, on Thursday, ran over, and almost instantly killed him. The Ztnesville Courier describes him as a tolerably stout built man, broad faced, somewhat bald, apparently about forty-five years old, and dressed like a laborer, and was unknown to those present. He was badly bruised, not mangled, ex cepting tbe left foot, which was cut off at the ankle joint. Tbe train was checked op immediately after tbe accident and ran back to the place. Conductor Frazier intended to take the unfortunate man to Zanesville, but be died in a few minntes thereafter, and the body was left in charge of Mr. Trary, at Clay pool's Mills. Coming Crops We have long since learned the niter folly ot conHdii g in prophesies regarding what may betall In weather or wheat, but when we read in our exchanges from all sections of the country such statements as may be expressed in the following, we are prone to confide in predictions for once : There was never before so large an area of country in wheat at tbis season as now, and that sowed last fall is looking remarkably well. Unless some disastrous blight shall yet be experienced, we shall harvest more wheat in 1S69 than In aoy former year. A very large oreaatn has oeen sown to spring grain, while much land is now in course of preparation for Indian corn. Our orchards are just bursting into bloom, and the .promise f lruit especially peaches is remarkably good. This is the universal expression, and what everybody says must be true." Interest on Monky The Ohio Leg islature, having finally passed the ciiciit per cent, interest law, it is - now legal to contract for money at that figure. The effect of this will be to cheapen money in Ohio. Absolute tree trade would be still better, but. since this could not be secured, we are thankful lor the one step that has been taken in the right direction. Under the six per cent, law Dauits charged 11K3J2 lor money, and mortgage paper sold at 12 15 per t ent. The new law will bring in capital, ana mis is uw way cueapeu money. Cotumttu (Ohio) Statesman. We find the above credited to the Ohio Statuman, and quoted approvingly in the Louisville Courier-Journal of tbe 12cb Inst. Because the article contains ' statements not true, and fails to repeat our sentiments, we must decline the authorship.; It never appeared in the Ohio Statesman." The eight per eent. interest law, which passed the last Legislature, does not take effect until October next, and hence it Li not now legal to contract for money at that figure.' - The idea that an increased rate of interest will cheapen money, is like tbe tarifl fallacy, that tbe deeper tbe duty levied on an imported article, the cheaper it would be to th consumer. , Fell from a Waoos. Yesterday evening, as a wagon containing tour men was passing the corner of High and Friend streets, one of the men tumbled from the wagon to the street in a fit, and sustained severs injuries to 'his' head. Dr.. Seltzer was summoned, who rendered the necessary relief. ' " ' ' " ' - '.. I Thb Ohio MikcuaW Tailoring Company. The attention -of our citizens is called to the magnificent stock ot French, English and American cloths just received by tbis company, in- their - rooms in the Opera House block. The company has s cured the services of tnat unsurpassed cutter, Mr. S. W. Stimson, which is a sufficient guarantee that fits will be simply a matter of course, and after the latest and most approved styles." The celebrated prize medal shirt, warranted ot the best material, Is made to order, and full lines of gentlemen's furnishing goods kept constantly on hand. The com pany now offer 1 a stock of ready-made clothing, at greatly reduced prices, and-everybody is invited to call and examine before purchasing elsewhere. Thb "Code" in Lancaster. There is a good deal of excitement among the denizens of Lancaster just now concerning a threatened duel between two young bloods in that city. ' Of course there is a woman ,' in the case, and we greatly fear that des-perate deeds will yet transpire. It appears ' tnat Mr. D. has been speaking disrespectfully of a lady friend of Mr. O., and the latter gentleman can only be appeased by sheeding the blood of the aforesaid D. A challenge was Issued and accepted, and by the tact oi interested friends, the parties were placed at points about a mile apart, and armed with pistols. The hour for the dread meeting came and passed, but the duelists failed to see each other, and quietly adjourned to heir homes. Subsequently, however, the spirit moved one ot the parties to renew the "phite," and at last accounts he was on the alert for tbe first appearance of his adversary. Should the valiant bloods "shnte" at each other from the stand points assigned by their more sensible friends (about a mile apart), we will give the result to our readers. Returning to thb Popular Vote Sys tem. Some years ago tbe popular vote system, as It is called, for tbe nomination ' of candidates, was tried in tbis county, and failed to give that general satisfaction which had been expected to result from the experiment. A Democratic County Convention accordingly decided to change the system and restore the former method of nominating candidates by conventions composed of delegates chosen to represent tbe several wards in the city and towu-ships In the county. Under this arrange--ment, our candidates for county offices were nominated and elected last year. We understadd tbat the County Central Committee are to have a meeting to-day, at which the question is to be discussed I whether it would not be better to nominate our county candidates this year and hereafter by popular vote, instead ot by the delegate system. It might, we take the liberty to suggest, be well tor the committee, if the foregoing question shonld be mooted, to determine first wbetbertbey are vested with the power to change that which bas been already settled by a County Convention. We make tbis suggestion without expressing a preference for the one mode or the other of making nominations. But it somehow or otber strikes us as it will doubtless most of our readers, that what a county convention has decided, upon, can only be properly reversed by a similar convention. . . . . r Laryngitis in Horses. A correspondent reports the following treatment of a valuable horse to which bis attention was called a few days ago : On arriving at the stable where the animal was loeated, I found him in a dangerous condition. He appeared to be gasping for breath ; a loud, stentorious noise, which could be heard at some distance, indicated that tbe difficulty was occasioned by obstructions within the Larynx. The pulse at the angle of tbe jaw was very indistinct, the pupils of the eyes were dilated, or in a state ol amaurosis, the extremities and external surface ot the body were deathly cold, the tongue and visible mucous surfaces were livid, all . indicating sp edy death. Every few moments the animal would be seized with a convulsive or spasmodic fit ot coughing, which seemed, each time, to threaten bis - life. In these fits of coughing be passed from the nostrils a yellow secretion aod troth. Under the above circumstances any altem pt to administer medicine was deemed unsafe. I therefore decided to perform tbe operations known as Tracheotomy, which was doue in the following manner. The horse was led to a convenient spot in the center of the stable, sud an incision made through the skin to expose tbe trachea, about midway between the jaws and breast bone. The trachea was now punctured by means of a pointed scalpel, and a probe-pointed bistoury used to dissect out a piece of the windpipe corresponding to the size of the tracheotomy tube. This tube, after being inserted into the windpipe, was secured in place by means of elastic tape, which was passed around the neck and tied. On the in trod notion ot the tube tbe alarming sy m p-toms immediately subsided, and the act of breathing was performed through the tube. I then applied a counter-irritant to the throat, ordered a warm bran niasb, into which was sprinkled chlorate of potassa. At tbe expiration of thirteen days the wound in the windpipe waa closed, natural respiration having been restored, and tne animal having good nursing was finally restored to usefulness."

The object ot the convention Is to secure tbe cordial and active co-operation of tbe people of the Ohio and Mississippi vslieys in the effort to build op direct trade witb Europe through South Atlantic sea ports. Flowering Shiiubbjsky. Every one acquainted with the subject has bis- preference or rather tancy, as to the flowering shrubs. But there is a group of tbeni which, by universal consent, every one admires and desires to see upon his premises. Among them are the following: The several Spinets, especially Reevesii and Pru-nifolia;Deutzias, Forsythia. Colutea, Wie-gelea; Snow Ball, Phlladelphus, Corona-tus, Pyrus, Japonlea, Double Flowering Chinese . Apple, Magnolia Soulangeani, Magnolia Conspicua,- Mist Tree, Persian Lilac, Econymus, Flowering Almond, Double Flowering Peach, fco. There are numerous others which, when carefully cultivated, are very pretty, and add much to the floricultural appearance of tbe premises ; but each one will find out for himself, as he progresses in his Improvements, and his knowledge becomes more expanded in floriculture, what to add to the collection, as bis tastes mty dictate. ' s Thb Condition of thb Stbam Firk En gines. Some few davs ago it was found necessary to order the steam fire engines "Miller" and ."Ridgway" out of commission, and send them to tbe shop ior a general overhauling. A thorough examina tion of tha machines bas revealed a condi tion of their flues very suggestive of explosion, with all the concomitant horrors, and the wonder is that working the engines of late, at even the low pressure of 10 or la pounds ot steam, has not resulted in ex. plosions and loss of life. Many of tbe flues removed from tbe "Miller" were so weakened by the corrosive sction of tbe water, that they could be picked to pieces by a common pen knife. This engine b been thoroughly refitted, however, and In future can be relied upon as combining all the elements of safety and efficiency. Rfi pairs on the Ridgwaj"are progressing. and under tbe supervision of the Council committee on the Fire 'Department, she. too, will shortly be in excellent condition A nti-Athleticism .The London Times gives voice to the feeling of dissatisfaction which is springing up In England against what it calls "Athleticism," which U now occupying so great- a portion of the time and energies of the youth ot that country. It says that it is impossible that a man's chief attention can be given to boating and cricket and athletics np to the age ol twenty-two, without a sensible loss of op portunity. Tbe years lost cannot be re called, the plasticity of the mind for the reception of knowledge is gone. The hardening, vulgarizing effects of the turn ot thought acquired by such a life are but too visible. , With numbers the addic tion to these things binders not only any serious stuly, but even the ordinary ac complishments of a modern gentleman. Young men grow up ' to' manhood with something painfully simple and loutish in their character. Tbey cannot even speak French, and it they go as far as Paris, they are as much at a loss as It set down at Tim-buctoo. Even as to the result in a physical point oi view of this over-devotion to ath letlc sports, the Times says : "Take the most crucial test, the march ot armies on a campaign. The higher French officers are in great part highly instructed men, ana no ciass oi tneui nave given them selves up to rowing and jumping from bov hood to manhood. But tbey march, and they make their men march, witb tar more alertness and agility than is shown by an English regiment whose officers have been athletizing all their lives. Young Americans are popularly supposed to pass their hours of recreation In making speeches and reading newspapers, and they eertaiuly do not rival ourselves in tbe multitude and elaborateness ot their sports. But Sherman's march through Georgia on the oue hand, and the successive catnpaigt s of the Confederates on the other,show that Americans are able to endure exertion and fatigue at least as well as Englishmen. In tbe campaign of Sadowa the Prussians exhibited promptitude aud endurance not to be exceeded by any nation. In ttie ordinary occupations of lite the same powers are witnessed, and there is no reason to believe tnat the higher classes ot these countries are not Btrong euough for anything they have to do." Hon. S. 8. Cox In Airless. Hrn. S.S.Cox, now or recently traveling iti Northern Africa, is publishing a series of descriptive letters in the New York World. One of thete, under date of Al geria, April 20, Is now before us. It is, as every one acquainted with Mr. Cox as a writer, would naturally expect, very interesting and graphic. But we have only space for a very brief, and, of cour.-e, very imperfect notice of a small portion of Its contents. Speaking of the city of Algiers, Mr. Cox remarks that ".he different nationalities and costumes are like the moving figures at a tair. The thirty -six years ol French occupation bas not touched tne shell, much lets the kernel, of the Orientalism and Mahout-edanism there so prevalent. Tbe day before the date of his letter Saturday being the Jewish Sabbath, Mr-C. learned on inquiry about the character and condition of the Hebrew population, that they were the most prosperous. Since tbe French occupation, and since they have been permitted to hold property.tbey have acquired nearly all the estates of tbe city. Going into their synagogue, Mr. C. and his companions were received with . the greatest courtesy. They are the best ap-paralled and most Intelligent of the native population.' They number over six thou sand. The women dress In gaudy color , with cinctures of gold and embroidered ribbons. Tbe children are beautiful. Tbe same may be said ot the Arab and Moorish children. - Mr. C. never saw hand somer children than these. Their eyes are dark and vivaciously expressive. They have a daring glitter that expresses the grand and active race tbat brought civili zation from the East to the now dominant Western races. Tuey gave us arithmetic, algebra, astronomy and chemistry. Their doctors In medicine and scholarship informed the world of mind during the dark est of the ages. It was truly an interest ing tight to gaze on those sweet and fresh blossoms ot the old Moorish tree. But we must cut short our notice. The letter is long, occupying over three solid columns In the World. He who would en joy its contents, and be instiucted by the views presented of the ancient races who now inhabit Algeria and the rest ot Northern Africa, sbouid make it a point to peruse Mr. Cox's letters as they successively appear.

Advices from Lexington, Va., state that considerable apathy txists among the people in the valley, concerning the coming election. In many counties the precincts are so arrauged that a considerable distance has to be traversed to get to tbe registration office or to tbe polls, and unless active steps are taken many will refuse to trouble themselves so much to register, and const quently will not vote in that section.

Admiral Hoff writes to the Navy Department from Havana, the 6 oh lost., announcing that be woull be absent from that port lor a few- da. s, to relieve the Narragansett at Key West, and for a change of air lor the officei s and ere w. He had just received information from Commander Fillibrown, at Key West, that tin English steamer Salvador is a supposed Cuban privateer, and that our naval forces have been watching her lor some time at the iustance of the Government. She has cleared lor St. Thomas, via Nassau, without arms or munitions of war of any description. , Everything at Havana Is remarkably quiet. The Spanish authorities seem con-ndentot suppressing the rebellion before the explratiou ot the year. Tbe rainy season, now coining on, precludes the possibility ot any active operations of any importance from the interior. In conversation with Cubans, who were at one time sanguine ot success, Admiral Hoff says those in tho Havana end of the Island are dissatisfied, from the tact that the revolution has not been conducted in a manner to coincide with their views. There is little or no organization among them, although they claim the cause ot their present inactivity is owing to their forces being exercised and instructed in the use of arms, preparatory tor a campaign at the close ot the rainy season. Generals Cespedit and Quesada are acting independently, and nave their own separate forces and adherents. Mr. Hall, our Consul General, and the Commodore of the English fleet, seem to think the insurrection is being crushed, and that in a tew weeks it will consist ot nothing but irregular bands ot outlaws scattered tnrough she interior. , A letter from a treasury officer at Beou-fort. South Carolina, states tbat the schooner Grapeshot, bouud from New York to Falmouth, Jamaica, put in there tor repairs on the 27th ot April. As she was laden with arms and munitions ot war, and had thirty -tlx passengers, the Collector at Btautort telegraphed to Collector Grim-nikli, at New York, and received a reply that the Grapeshot was regulany cleared tor Falmouth, and consequently she was not detained. A tew dayB after tim a new Collector was appointed at Beaufort, and he was urged by Captain Usher, of the revenue service, to investigate matters, fie replied it had been thoroughly inquired into by his predecessor, and tuerelore declined to act in the case. On the 12th of May the Grapeshot still lay in the harbor ot Beaufort. A. Virginia l-legition Watt on I he President.

A .Nkw VKLOCiPBDe. A new invention called the rocking chair velocipede, the motive power of which Is supplied through the backward and ior ward motion of the chair, is one of the most recent inventions. It is thus described : The new machine is a three wheeled vehicle, and weighs about 100 pounds. The rocking chair in which the driver sits and propels the machine, is placed between the forward and back wheels, and is connected with a rod to the crank in the axle of the hind wheels, which gives the propelling power as the chair Is rocked backward and forward by the oo- cupanU The steering apparatus is attached to the forward wheel, and the whole oper ation of guiding and running the machine is very simple and almost exertlonlt ss. It is adapted as well to ladies as to gentlemen, and is said to be capable of doing six miles an hour. Thb Laws of the Last Lkoirlatur The volume ol laws passed by the last Leg islature will be large beyond precedent The municipal code, In which are embodied all the laws for the government of cities. tawna and Incorporated villages, will of it self make a volume of nearly as many pages as the general laws ol any previous session. When to this is added tne code or criminal procedure, and the other laws of a general nature, tbe volume will bo a mammoth one. The two codes, eriminal and municipal, are pronounced, by those competent to ludge, the best that could be made, and re flects high credit on the Legislature ibat adopted them. Tbe delay, if any. In the publication of the volume of laws, will be caused by the fact above stated. Fatal Accident. Yesterday morning, Nicholas Connell, a switchman employed on tbe Columbus, Chicago and Indiana Central Railway, was instantly killed by btine run over by shifting engine No. 19, near ue repair shops oi the road. Tbe en sins was approaching the Union derot when tbe unfortunate man attempted to lump on the platlorm In front, but missed his footing and fell on tbe track ; tbe wheels of the locomotive passed over his body above his hips, cntting it in two parte. Mr. Connell lived In the Third Ward, and leaves a wife and Infant child Tbe verdict of the Coroner's Jury was in accordance, with the above facts. We un derstand that tbe deceased was cautiont d but a few hours previous to the accident to be more earef ul in regard to his move ments about moving trains, but manifested no desire to profit by the advice. Killed on the Railroad. Passenger train No. X, Etstern bound over the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, Central Ohio Di vision, when a short distance past the Curve, at Clay pool's Mills, struck a man walking on tbe track, on Thursday, ran over, and almost instantly killed him. The Ztnesville Courier describes him as a tolerably stout built man, broad faced, somewhat bald, apparently about forty-five years old, and dressed like a laborer, and was unknown to those present. He was badly bruised, not mangled, ex cepting tbe left foot, which was cut off at the ankle joint. Tbe train was checked op immediately after tbe accident and ran back to the place. Conductor Frazier intended to take the unfortunate man to Zanesville, but be died in a few minntes thereafter, and the body was left in charge of Mr. Trary, at Clay pool's Mills. Coming Crops We have long since learned the niter folly ot conHdii g in prophesies regarding what may betall In weather or wheat, but when we read in our exchanges from all sections of the country such statements as may be expressed in the following, we are prone to confide in predictions for once : There was never before so large an area of country in wheat at tbis season as now, and that sowed last fall is looking remarkably well. Unless some disastrous blight shall yet be experienced, we shall harvest more wheat in 1S69 than In aoy former year. A very large oreaatn has oeen sown to spring grain, while much land is now in course of preparation for Indian corn. Our orchards are just bursting into bloom, and the .promise f lruit especially peaches is remarkably good. This is the universal expression, and what everybody says must be true." Interest on Monky The Ohio Leg islature, having finally passed the ciiciit per cent, interest law, it is - now legal to contract for money at that figure. The effect of this will be to cheapen money in Ohio. Absolute tree trade would be still better, but. since this could not be secured, we are thankful lor the one step that has been taken in the right direction. Under the six per cent, law Dauits charged 11K3J2 lor money, and mortgage paper sold at 12 15 per t ent. The new law will bring in capital, ana mis is uw way cueapeu money. Cotumttu (Ohio) Statesman. We find the above credited to the Ohio Statuman, and quoted approvingly in the Louisville Courier-Journal of tbe 12cb Inst. Because the article contains ' statements not true, and fails to repeat our sentiments, we must decline the authorship.; It never appeared in the Ohio Statesman." The eight per eent. interest law, which passed the last Legislature, does not take effect until October next, and hence it Li not now legal to contract for money at that figure.' - The idea that an increased rate of interest will cheapen money, is like tbe tarifl fallacy, that tbe deeper tbe duty levied on an imported article, the cheaper it would be to th consumer. , Fell from a Waoos. Yesterday evening, as a wagon containing tour men was passing the corner of High and Friend streets, one of the men tumbled from the wagon to the street in a fit, and sustained severs injuries to 'his' head.

There is a good deal of excitement among the denizens of Lancaster just now concerning a threatened duel between two young bloods in that city. ' Of course there is a woman ,' in the case, and we greatly fear that des-perate deeds will yet transpire. It appears ' tnat Mr. D. has been speaking disrespectfully of a lady friend of Mr. O., and the latter gentleman can only be appeased by sheeding the blood of the aforesaid D. A challenge was Issued and accepted, and by the tact oi interested friends, the parties were placed at points about a mile apart, and armed with pistols. The hour for the dread meeting came and passed, but the duelists failed to see each other, and quietly adjourned to heir homes. Subsequently, however, the spirit moved one ot the parties to renew the "phite," and at last accounts he was on the alert for tbe first appearance of his adversary. Should the valiant bloods "shnte" at each other from the stand points assigned by their more sensible friends (about a mile apart), we will give the result to our readers. Returning to thb Popular Vote Sys tem. Some years ago tbe popular vote system, as It is called, for tbe nomination ' of candidates, was tried in tbis county, and failed to give that general satisfaction which had been expected to result from the experiment. A Democratic County Convention accordingly decided to change the system and restore the former method of nominating candidates by conventions composed of delegates chosen to represent tbe several wards in the city and towu-ships In the county. Under this arrange--ment, our candidates for county offices were nominated and elected last year. We understadd tbat the County Central Committee are to have a meeting to-day, at which the question is to be discussed I whether it would not be better to nominate our county candidates this year and hereafter by popular vote, instead ot by the delegate system. It might, we take the liberty to suggest, be well tor the committee, if the foregoing question shonld be mooted, to determine first wbetbertbey are vested with the power to change that which bas been already settled by a County Convention. We make tbis suggestion without expressing a preference for the one mode or the other of making nominations. But it somehow or otber strikes us as it will doubtless most of our readers, that what a county convention has decided, upon, can only be properly reversed by a similar convention. . . . . r Laryngitis in Horses. A correspondent reports the following treatment of a valuable horse to which bis attention was called a few days ago : On arriving at the stable where the animal was loeated, I found him in a dangerous condition. He appeared to be gasping for breath ; a loud, stentorious noise, which could be heard at some distance, indicated that tbe difficulty was occasioned by obstructions within the Larynx. The pulse at the angle of tbe jaw was very indistinct, the pupils of the eyes were dilated, or in a state ol amaurosis, the extremities and external surface ot the body were deathly cold, the tongue and visible mucous surfaces were livid, all . indicating sp edy death. Every few moments the animal would be seized with a convulsive or spasmodic fit ot coughing, which seemed, each time, to threaten bis - life. In these fits of coughing be passed from the nostrils a yellow secretion aod troth. Under the above circumstances any altem pt to administer medicine was deemed unsafe. I therefore decided to perform tbe operations known as Tracheotomy, which was doue in the following manner. The horse was led to a convenient spot in the center of the stable, sud an incision made through the skin to expose tbe trachea, about midway between the jaws and breast bone. The trachea was now punctured by means of a pointed scalpel, and a probe-pointed bistoury used to dissect out a piece of the windpipe corresponding to the size of the tracheotomy tube. This tube, after being inserted into the windpipe, was secured in place by means of elastic tape, which was passed around the neck and tied. On the in trod notion ot the tube tbe alarming sy m p-toms immediately subsided, and the act of breathing was performed through the tube. I then applied a counter-irritant to the throat, ordered a warm bran niasb, into which was sprinkled chlorate of potassa. At tbe expiration of thirteen days the wound in the windpipe waa closed, natural respiration having been restored, and tne animal having good nursing was finally restored to usefulness."

Flowering Shiiubbjsky. Every one acquainted with the subject has bis- preference or rather tancy, as to the flowering shrubs. But there is a group of tbeni which, by universal consent, every one admires and desires to see upon his premises. Among them are the following: The several Spinets, especially Reevesii and Pru-nifolia;Deutzias, Forsythia. Colutea, Wie-gelea; Snow Ball, Phlladelphus, Corona-tus, Pyrus, Japonlea, Double Flowering Chinese . Apple, Magnolia Soulangeani, Magnolia Conspicua,- Mist Tree, Persian Lilac, Econymus, Flowering Almond, Double Flowering Peach, fco. There are numerous others which, when carefully cultivated, are very pretty, and add much to the floricultural appearance of tbe premises ; but each one will find out for himself, as he progresses in his Improvements, and his knowledge becomes more expanded in floriculture, what to add to the collection, as bis tastes mty dictate. ' s Thb Condition of thb Stbam Firk En gines. Some few davs ago it was found necessary to order the steam fire engines "Miller" and ."Ridgway" out of commission, and send them to tbe shop ior a general overhauling. A thorough examina tion of tha machines bas revealed a condi tion of their flues very suggestive of explosion, with all the concomitant horrors, and the wonder is that working the engines of late, at even the low pressure of 10 or la pounds ot steam, has not resulted in ex. plosions and loss of life. Many of tbe flues removed from tbe "Miller" were so weakened by the corrosive sction of tbe water, that they could be picked to pieces by a common pen knife. This engine b been thoroughly refitted, however, and In future can be relied upon as combining all the elements of safety and efficiency. Rfi pairs on the Ridgwaj"are progressing. and under tbe supervision of the Council committee on the Fire 'Department, she. too, will shortly be in excellent condition A nti-Athleticism .The London Times gives voice to the feeling of dissatisfaction which is springing up In England against what it calls "Athleticism," which U now occupying so great- a portion of the time and energies of the youth ot that country. It says that it is impossible that a man's chief attention can be given to boating and cricket and athletics np to the age ol twenty-two, without a sensible loss of op portunity. Tbe years lost cannot be re called, the plasticity of the mind for the reception of knowledge is gone. The hardening, vulgarizing effects of the turn ot thought acquired by such a life are but too visible. , With numbers the addic tion to these things binders not only any serious stuly, but even the ordinary ac complishments of a modern gentleman. Young men grow up ' to' manhood with something painfully simple and loutish in their character. Tbey cannot even speak French, and it they go as far as Paris, they are as much at a loss as It set down at Tim-buctoo. Even as to the result in a physical point oi view of this over-devotion to ath letlc sports, the Times says : "Take the most crucial test, the march ot armies on a campaign. The higher French officers are in great part highly instructed men, ana no ciass oi tneui nave given them selves up to rowing and jumping from bov hood to manhood. But tbey march, and they make their men march, witb tar more alertness and agility than is shown by an English regiment whose officers have been athletizing all their lives. Young Americans are popularly supposed to pass their hours of recreation In making speeches and reading newspapers, and they eertaiuly do not rival ourselves in tbe multitude and elaborateness ot their sports. But Sherman's march through Georgia on the oue hand, and the successive catnpaigt s of the Confederates on the other,show that Americans are able to endure exertion and fatigue at least as well as Englishmen. In tbe campaign of Sadowa the Prussians exhibited promptitude aud endurance not to be exceeded by any nation. In ttie ordinary occupations of lite the same powers are witnessed, and there is no reason to believe tnat the higher classes ot these countries are not Btrong euough for anything they have to do." Hon. S. 8. Cox In Airless. Hrn. S.S.Cox, now or recently traveling iti Northern Africa, is publishing a series of descriptive letters in the New York World. One of thete, under date of Al geria, April 20, Is now before us. It is, as every one acquainted with Mr. Cox as a writer, would naturally expect, very interesting and graphic. But we have only space for a very brief, and, of cour.-e, very imperfect notice of a small portion of Its contents. Speaking of the city of Algiers, Mr. Cox remarks that ".he different nationalities and costumes are like the moving figures at a tair. The thirty -six years ol French occupation bas not touched tne shell, much lets the kernel, of the Orientalism and Mahout-edanism there so prevalent. Tbe day before the date of his letter Saturday being the Jewish Sabbath, Mr-C. learned on inquiry about the character and condition of the Hebrew population, that they were the most prosperous. Since tbe French occupation, and since they have been permitted to hold property.tbey have acquired nearly all the estates of tbe city. Going into their synagogue, Mr. C. and his companions were received with . the greatest courtesy. They are the best ap-paralled and most Intelligent of the native population.' They number over six thou sand. The women dress In gaudy color , with cinctures of gold and embroidered ribbons. Tbe children are beautiful. Tbe same may be said ot the Arab and Moorish children. - Mr. C. never saw hand somer children than these. Their eyes are dark and vivaciously expressive. They have a daring glitter that expresses the grand and active race tbat brought civili zation from the East to the now dominant Western races. Tuey gave us arithmetic, algebra, astronomy and chemistry. Their doctors In medicine and scholarship informed the world of mind during the dark est of the ages. It was truly an interest ing tight to gaze on those sweet and fresh blossoms ot the old Moorish tree. But we must cut short our notice. The letter is long, occupying over three solid columns In the World. He who would en joy its contents, and be instiucted by the views presented of the ancient races who now inhabit Algeria and the rest ot Northern Africa, sbouid make it a point to peruse Mr. Cox's letters as they successively appear.

Admiral Hoff writes to the Navy Department from Havana, the 6 oh lost., announcing that be woull be absent from that port lor a few- da. s, to relieve the Narragansett at Key West, and for a change of air lor the officei s and ere w. He had just received information from Commander Fillibrown, at Key West, that tin English steamer Salvador is a supposed Cuban privateer, and that our naval forces have been watching her lor some time at the iustance of the Government. She has cleared lor St. Thomas, via Nassau, without arms or munitions of war of any description. , Everything at Havana Is remarkably quiet. The Spanish authorities seem con-ndentot suppressing the rebellion before the explratiou ot the year. Tbe rainy season, now coining on, precludes the possibility ot any active operations of any importance from the interior. In conversation with Cubans, who were at one time sanguine ot success, Admiral Hoff says those in tho Havana end of the Island are dissatisfied, from the tact that the revolution has not been conducted in a manner to coincide with their views. There is little or no organization among them, although they claim the cause ot their present inactivity is owing to their forces being exercised and instructed in the use of arms, preparatory tor a campaign at the close ot the rainy season. Generals Cespedit and Quesada are acting independently, and nave their own separate forces and adherents. Mr. Hall, our Consul General, and the Commodore of the English fleet, seem to think the insurrection is being crushed, and that in a tew weeks it will consist ot nothing but irregular bands ot outlaws scattered tnrough she interior. , A letter from a treasury officer at Beou-fort. South Carolina, states tbat the schooner Grapeshot, bouud from New York to Falmouth, Jamaica, put in there tor repairs on the 27th ot April.
