And another vory important feature is durability. A Plow completed will last a man from two to five years, accord ing to tho soil he cultivates, and will only cost about Three Dollars to put it up. An Agency will soon be established in Romo, and then planters will be invited to call and see for themselves. Address, • B. F. REYNOLDS, mar20tritf. Kingston, Go. Sijgijjegg fyi^g.

September 7,—ly. Bell and Everett. Wejiccept, with pleasure, the nomin ation Sf these distinguished gentlemen for the Presidency and Vice-Presiden cy, by the national Union Convention. Had we been able to make a selection best suited to our awn views, we might have chosen others; but we are satis fied that the are the best nominations that will be made by any party, and we very cheerfully give them our humble but hearty support. have no time, at present, to make more than a passing remark or two about Mr. Bell’s positions or the slavery question. Though he voted in 1854, against the Kausos-Nebroska bill repealing the Missouri Compromise, he believed tho Missouri restriction of slavery'to be unconstitutional and un just towards the South. He only re spected it because long acquiescence had, in his opinion, imparted to it the sacredness of a compact between the sections. In all original legislation (as in that of 1850,) he is and was opposed to all Con gressional interference with slavery as unconstitutional and inimical to the gouth, and'at the same time opposed to squatter sovereignty. In other words, he stands by the Territorial bills of 1850, as conforming to the spirit of the Con stitution and the rights of the sections. He feared that the repeal of the Missouri restrictions as to Kansas and Nebraska, after such long toleration as a compromise between the North and the South, would stir up and embitter seotionalstrifes, and therfore he opposed it—at the same time acknowledging the right of the South to demand of the Federal Government “hands off” in all the Territories. The result shows that he was right in his apprehension of the mischief that would follow the passage of the Kans<is bill, with all the encouragement which , it afforded to sectional partisans to | commence in the Territories a strife that would convulse tho whole Union.

I appre hend that as great a wonder has been realized already on tho earth. I appre hend that the distance between the mind of Newton and of a Hottentot may have been as great as between New ton and an angel. There is another view still more striking. This Newton, who lifted his calm sublime eye to the heavens, and read among the planets an 1 the si a s the great law of the material, universe, was, forty or fifty years before, on infant, without one clear perception, and unable to distinguish his nurse’s arm from the pillow on which he slept.

Canadian Yankriism.—Over the line in Canada, they are quite as inquisitive as their Yankee neighbors—probably the South wind carries the infection over. Some years since the Receiver General was travelling on a steamboat with funds for the Government, and for the sake of privaoy and safety he engaged the whole of the ladies' cabin. The passengers were all alive to ascer tain the reason of this arrangement, and especially to know what business the great man could have on hand to require so much room and money. At length one of them, more bold than the rest, ventured to introduce the subject as the Receiver was walking the deck, and approaohed him ask ed him if he was on a government contraot ? “Yes," was the gruff reply. “A very large one?" . “Yes, very large," “May I ask what it is!" . “Yes." “Well, pray sir, what is it!’* “Why, you see," said the Receiver General with great seriousness, “the King of England has made a A Man Pleads' his own Case. In the Quarter Sessions, Philadelphia, recently, a man named Pierce Kitchen was tried for an assault and battery up on his wife. . Mrs. Kitchen was brought to the stand. She couldn’t swear fcat her husband ever struck her, but swore that he indulged in whiskey and failed 'tor ' *■'- *—” " mrt that he would plead his own cause. Mr. Kitchen spread himself, and made a speech. He faced thejury, and went through the motions in a manner that would have done no dis credit to any of our best Q'urtei Sessions practitioners. He informed the jury that, having failed to prove that he laid an angry hand upon his wife, he could not possibly be convioted of an assault ion her. As to the other oharges he pleaded justifiaotion. “ Mrs. Kitchen, gentlemen of thejury,” Bald Mr. Kitch en, “is a member of a v ehuroh, Mrs.. Kitchen forsakes her kitchen, and spends half her time in the church lec ture-room. ' While my ^breeches are running to seed, and the children going about with ill-kept noses and dilapidat ed extremities, Mrs. Kitchen is indulg-'' ing in a confab with a’lof of old ladies, about the shocking nudity of the South Sea Islanders. While willing to, provide for her, gentlemen of the jury, I ain’t willing to feed all the brethren of the . nor to give Bohea parties to twenty people twice a week neither. If I’ve got tight on the. strength of suoh a provocation, gentlemen of the jury, it ain’t a bit more than the best of you would have done if placed in rsy cir cumstances ; and if you was me, and I was you—knowing the case as I do l’d render a verdict of acquittal, and served the woman right.” Having said this, Mr. Kitchen discontinued *the subject, and the jury placing their heads together, rendered a verdict of “ Not guilty." :— *6f*The Vermont Patriot tells a story of an old miser, who went one day to visit a former borrower, who since, for tunately,had grown from poverty to inde pendence.
