We clip from the New York llrrald the following particulars of the horrible acci dent at .Johnstown, Pa., (luring the recent \i -it to that place by the President. The //r'lWn correspondent writing from the spot says: At Johnstown a very large concourse of people awaited the train hearing the Pres ident, and, on its approach, began the most Vociferous and genuine cheering pos sible. A FEARFUL ACCIDENT. P.ut their joy at welcoming the party was cut short, and the whole mace con verted into a hous'e of mourning by one of the most calamitous accidents that ever betel a community. The railroad at this place runs on the north hank of the old canal (now dry,) about thirty feet from its channel. The canal was bridged over for several rods in front of where the train stopped, and was used as a platform for busines.'. A bridge for crossing one of the streets, and two raised sidewalks were im provised. In consequence of being slight ly elevated above the ground between the bank of the canal and the cars, the au dience could obtain a tolerably fair view of the rear platform of the train on which the President and others were standing, and therefore crowded on it in a mass so dense that there was no standing room left unoc cupied. THE BRIDGE GIVES WAY. Just as the train was about to move away, and those on the bridge and around the depot were rending the air with cheers for Johnson, Grant, and Farragut, an aw ful crash rose above the roar of the huz zas that startled all within hearing arid silenced many voices for ever. '1 he tim bers in the centre of the bridge, fully a foot square, suddenly snapped in twain, precipitating every soul on it to the bot tom of the canal, a distance of at least fifteen feet. The balance of the sidewalks and platforms ov< r the canal came down with the bridge, and filled tire bottom with timbers, plants and the straggling mass of men, women and children, all buried together in an inextricable confusion. These on the bank between the new yawn ing gulf and the railroad track were fright ened into a stampede, and added to che confusion by screaming, yelling and tramp ling each other into the mud in the frantic efforts to escape. A more frightful scene was scarcely ever witnessed. A few mo ments sufficed to reveal what actually transpired. .Men, women, and children Ist hers, mothers, husbands,_ wives, sons and daughters were now rushing in every direction seeking relatives and friends, and crying aloud with grief and terror. I'KCI I.IAII CIRCUMSTANCES OF TtlE ACCI DENT. From the manner in which the mass of people was precipitated, struggling, clutch ing and grasping, to the ground beneath, a great many arms and legs were broken. The women generally fell head foremost, owing to their inflated style of clothing; and their contusions were chiefly confined to the head, thee and shoulders. One re markable fact was that no infants or small children were known to he hurt in the slightest, although many infants iir’firms were among those jvho fell to the bottom, and a still larger number of both sexes, raging from six to ten years of age. As soon as partial order could be restored lines were formed to protect the sufferers from the outside pressure of the crowd, and to extricate them from the wreck of the bridge and platform. One man was found dead, with a huge beam across his neck and his eyes protruding front their sockets. SCENES AND INCIDENTS AFTER THE CATAS TROPHE. Mr. Melt/.ger, proprietor of the Mansion House, was among the first taken dead from the ruins. Miss Is Tit ie Cannon was at first supposed to be slightly stunned, hut never recovered from the shock, and expired immediately. She was a young laily of rare piomise, graceful, and accom plished in mind and manners ; had gradu ated within a lew weeks past, and was con fessedly the belle of the place. The sight that met the eye as the injured were taken out was horrifying even to a war corres pondent. An Irish widow was carried away, suf fering from pain and lamenting the condi tion her unfortunate family of four little ones would now be in on account of her disability. A young fellow in the first flush of manhood scrambled out of the rubbish, and managed to hobble away a few rods, when he fell from pain and ex haustion, and on examination found that | his thigh hone was badly fractured. The , tears rolled down his checks, and when j asked how he was hurt replied that his leg \ was ruined for life. A little girl who went j down on the top of the crowd scrambled | out and stood staring with flight as one j petrified, and could not be aroused for sev- , oral minutes, when she burst into tears ; and begged to he taken to her mother. A i young Miss extricated herself and took flight as one fleeing from destruction, and j never slackened her speed until out of j sight. The young wife of a man who had j a leg broken was sitting by his side on the ground, weeping freely, but on being ques- j tinned smiled through her tears and said she was only crying tor joy that she had found him alive and hurt no worse. The news soon spread through the village, and those who remained away at first were soon congregated around the depot, wild with excitement and searching everywhere for relatives and friends whom they feared ; were among the killedor wounded. Plunks wore at first taken from the broken bridge to carry away the living and dead, and mattresses were soon brought into requisi tion from the neighboring houses for the purpose. THE MOST PROMINENT PIIVSICIANS OF THE PEACE INJURED. The most unfortunate feature of the af fair was that both the prominent physicians of the place were among the severely in jured. and "the community was deprived of their services in the hour of their greatest need. MEPICAL ASSISTANCE TELEGRAPHED FOR. The agent of „the railroad telegraphed each way along the line, urging forward all assistance, and in less than two hours about twenty physicians arrived by regular and special trains. Few calamities of this kind have been so widespread, or carried desolation and mourning into so many dif ferent families. Half the households in Johnstown were in mourning to-night, and the list of casualties has probably been swelled from the one hundred aud five names reported to at least two hundred. The 1 “residential party were doubly afflicted by the deplorable occurrence, and was af fected to silence for several hours. A correspondent of the New York Times, who was on the spot, tbits describes the accident: In expectation of the special train con taining the Presidential party, a large num ber of people, probably 3,000 in all. had gathered in and about the depot at this place, to tender the usual salutation. Near the depot is an old canal, and which was a double crossing with a sort of cover, fifty feet aiuare between. I non this structure or bridge some eight or nine hundred peo ple had congregated, a large number of whom were women and children. The centre part was densely packed, and must have contained at least four hundred peo ple. The train had hardly stopped when the centre part gave way with a tremen dous crash, precipitating the entire party, in a headlong mass, some thirty feet. Hardly had the noise of the falling tim bers and the shrieks of the terrified people above ceased, when the groans of the dying and the screams of women and children came from the awful wreck below. All who had escaped injury proceeded at once to extricate the sufferers, who were piled one upon the other among a mass of broken timbers and iron rods. Several of the 1 residential party assisted in removing »i ~ a . injured, among whom were Marshal O Beirne. Mr. Murphv. Mr I’adwallader and my seif. The I’resident and Gen. Grant were exceedingly dis tressed, and were very anxious that the special train should stop over an hour to afford as much aid a# possible, but the Conductor stated that arrangements made for meeting trains on the road, precluded the possibility of carrying into effect the President s humane wish, arid after a few minutes the train started off. The party above alluded to, however, remained, and rendered a good deal ot assistance for nearly two hours. The poor victims— men. women aud children—were dragged out from the ruins, several of whom had crushed to dcatli by but more by being fallen upon by others. Most of the killed and wounded were of the laboring class. Mr. Metzger, one ot the killed, was proprietor of the hotel, and was quite wealthy ; and Miss Letitia Can non was the belle of the town, and graduated at the head of her class on Tuesday last, The scene was one of in descriliable horror. The groans f -and the screams and tear f mothers, wives , asters and daughter w.«- the saddest sisght I ever saw. ' Thirteen persons were killed or n ortally injured, and ninety others severely ’ art Novel and brand Enterprise—H.ijmili eeni New Kate Track—lts Cost <loo Th e North and South—Return »f the Era of hood Keeling. In a let ter from the Hon. John F. to the Mobile Register, dated N \ ,rk. August 28. we find the following very readable paragraphs: I had a delightful day yesterday in a drive through the suburbs of New York for a distance of ten or twelve miles, the object being to visit an enterprise destined to become not only a New York but a National institution. It is anew race course beyond Harlern River, built on private property and at private expense. .Mr. Leonard Jerome, one of the million aires of the city, conceived the magnificent project of a National Ilace-course, which when finished will epst him $500,00)1. Home idea of the grandeur of the plan may he had from the statement that the prin cipal stand costs $70,000. The form of the track is a novel one. It Ls in shape some thing like an hour-glass or a figure eight, the grand stand and the judges' lookout being in front of the neck of the figure, so that when the horses are half way round they are almost as near as when starting. A valley swelling at both ends, and sur rounded by beautiful hills, covered with trees and gTeen sward, seems to have been made expressly for the shape. The stables are every thing in the way of comfort arid luxury that horse-flesh could desire. The club proper consist of fifty members, Mr. Belmont being the principal or presiding steward. It is in the hands of the first men of fashion and wealth, and will he the rage of the ton of New York. The course is to be inaugurated with a four-mile race, and a purse of $lO,- 000, on the 23d of September, for which there are twenty-seven entries, among them “Asteroid, “Kentucky," “Fleet wing, and their aristocratic compeers of the turf. Does not this make the mouths of our magnolia lovers of horse-flesh water ? Mr. Jerome’s stable is already on the ground, and others are arriving. The enterprising proprietor and projector of this enterprise, besides being one of the most tonitib men in town, a splendid whip and a good liver, is a big hearted gentleman, and a true American, lie says his course Ls to be one of the elements of reconstruction — a place where the North and South can meet to learn each other’s good qualities, and wipe out, in generous emulation and .social intercourse, the asperities of the past. He was a war man for the North while war lasted ; being over, he acts the part of a generous adversary, and extends his hand to his late antagonist in the spirit of Co]. Dumas— " It is astonishing how l like a fellow after I have fought him." lie is a warm advo cate of the President’s policy, and assures me that his generous sentiments for the South are the type of the great heart of the North, which will surely crush down the vindictive and cowardly policy of the Radical party. I met at the dinner at the track a dozen gentlemen, all, except Maj. J. R. Walker and myself, Northern men of position and influence. The tone of .Mr. Jerome pervaded the whole party, and re ceived my statement of the late course and present temper and oouduct of the South with warm approbation. I told them we had no apologies to make for our course— we had acted on fixed political principles and deep-seated convictions —believed we were right in conscience honor and princi ple when we struck for independence, and still believe it; we were beaten, but not humiliated ; we accepted the political solu tion as the cost of defeat, and were ready and anxious to strike hands again with them, provided we could do so upon terms of political and manly equality, and in such a manner as to preserve the dignity of Americans, which had suffered no shame in our hands in all our conflicts upon land and water. This style of thought was most cordially received by the whole table, and was followed by a toast from Mr. Jerome, at the head of it, to the memory of the brave dead of the North and South, who hail shed a glory on the common American name. I mention this circum stance to illustrate the feeling among this class of men. None of these gentlemen are politicians, and they were all shades of old parties. But they were all intense Union men, and their Union extends to the embrace of the whole South upon equal terms, and they do not regard the Union as complete without the South. One of them said : “I glory in your Lee and Stonewall, and in the surpassing valor of your gray coats, even more than in the achievements of the Northern troops, for I he reason that the odds were against you, the struggle harder for you, and pluck and heroism required greater.” After a de lightful day, our host mounted the box of Ins drag, and taking the reins over four spanking bays, drove us through the Ceil tral Park into the city. I trust that these gentlemen are not mistaken, and their noble sentiments will be ratified by the majority of the Northern people at the ballot-box. The President in Indianapolis—Dis graceful Scenes. The telegraph has already advised us of the disgraceful reception accorded the. President by the Radicals at Indianapolis on his arrival there on the 10th inst. The Indianapolis Herald gives the following de tails : The most disgraceful scene ever enacted in this crime stained city, attended the re ception of President Johnson last night. * * * General Meredith, in the midst of a perfect pandemonium of villian ous noises, succeeded in making his recep tion speech, and introduced the President. The Chief Magistrate of the nation, with uncovered head, his white hairs and the dignity sis his station appealing in vain for a respectful hearing, faced a frantic mob, which greeted him with an overwhelming storm of groans, hisses, bellowings, and all sorts of grotesque noises, interspersed with vile and insulting epithets. The friends of the President, of whom there were thou sands in the street, were taken by surprise, and overawed by the strength and deter mined front of the rioters. In vain were they appealed to. The uproar was contin ued without intermission until they had bellowed themselves hoarse. It seemed as if all hell had broken loose, and its inmates were bolding high carnival in front of the Bates House. , After standing full ten minutes on the balcony, the President turned his back on . the mob, and entered his room, doubtless | strongly impressed with the decency and good breeding of an Indianapolis audience, which refuses the Chief Magistrate of the nation a hearing. The shutters were closed the curtains drawn, and the mob left to enjoy "the fruits'’ of their victory. For i half an hour or more the riot was kept up without cessation of the groaning aud bel i lowing, and then it assumed a more serious i shape. The torchlight procession began ! to move through the crowd, when the riot ers opened the ball by striking at the lamps with their cudgels and smashing the trans parencies. A torch bearer whose lamp was knocked off by a brawny ruffian turned the i staff and broke the scoundrel's head with it. Then pistols were brought into requi- I sition. Some twenty shots were tired, causing a general scattering of the crowd. A citizen named John Trucks, was hit in the nose, and a gentleman named Rooker, from Hamilton county, received a ball in his knee. It is said that Mr. Charles Stagg, a lawyer and phonographic repor ter. received a stray shot in the hand, and that a lady was also slightly wounded. Some time after the hrst shooting, How ard Stretcher, a young man of the city, shot and killed a man named Stewart.— Stretcher is a Johnson man. We did not get any authentic information ot the cir cumstances preceding the shooting, but understand that someone struck Stretcher. He fired three shots, one of which struck Stewart in the mouth, lodging in the back of his head. He was carried into the cor nev drug store, and soon died. During the first melee the rioters struck indiscriminately at the marshals and torch bearers. Some of the horses ridden by the marshals were frightfully cut and gashed. It is evident that the whole thing was preconcerted. Rumors of a disturbance were rife throughout the day, and the pres ence of a large number of prominent Re publicans in the crowd shows that it was i countenanced and encouraged by them. These sober, sedate. God-fearing, "respect able" aud eminently loyal patriots, went about through the crowd while President Johnson was trying to speak, rubbing their hands in frantic glee, and chuckling over the 'tun'' they were having. There were A. H. Connor, some of the Douglasses. Glazier. Unversaw. and a host of others— lending their counsel to the disgraceful pro ceedings. which have fixed a damning stain upon the fame of our city. . In the meantime the police—the virtu ous, honest, patriotic conservators of the peace were quietly looking on. enjoying the sport with a keen relish, such as only po licemen can feel. They never attempted to make au arrest, unless it was in case of a Johnson man, or "copperhead," caught in the attempt of defending himself from the attacks of their Radical friends. After the row was over, they were seen to knock down, brutally beat, aud then drag to jail a man whose only offense was shouting, Hurrah for Johnson.

New York, Sept. M.—The Herald’s Washington special says: In a previous dis patch I understood there was good reason to believe that in a few days Jeff. Davis would be teleased on parole or bail. I re ceived my information from a high official, who possesses excellent facilities for learn ing the President’s views and intentions on such subjects. The announcement created quite aflutter among the politicians, and several very influential ones favorable to the President's restoration policy, ventured to call on him to ascertain if the announce ments were well founded. They urged the President to defer any action in the matter until after the fall elections, reminding him he was already accused of sympathiz ing with Rebels, and abusing the pardon ing power and assuring him that the re lease of the head rebel, at this time, would be handled by the Radicals in the present compaign with a powerful effect and greatly impaire the chances of the party now labor ing to elect to office men who would sup port his ( the President’s] policy. This I have on undoubted authority. The President replied that many distin guished and loyal gentlemen from both the North and South has appealed to him for the release of Jefferson Davis, and had presented several considerations which made a favorable impression on his mind why Davis should not be held any longer in confinement; and that he had said to them that if, from any fault of the court or the proper officers of the government Davis should not be brought to trial in October, he should not, from any reason then known to him, deem it his duty to hold the prisoner for another day. But in giving the friends of Davis this assurance, he had anticipated the action of the court, and had not appointed any time for Davis’ release in the event of his not being tried. He declared that he had from the first desired to have Davis tried for treason, and had used such influence and authority as he possessed to have the trial take place at an early day, but if there should be any further delay in bringing on the trial, he believed that neither the interest of the country nor his duty demanded that lie keep the prisoner longer in custody. He also stated that he was unable to perceive that the release of Davis on parole or bail would furnish the Radicals with a valuable weapon, but that he believed the masses, if there should be further unnecessary de lay in bringing him to trial, would ap prove of his being conditionally released. 11. is well understood in the best inform ed circles that Davis will not be tried at the October terra, so that his release may bo looked for soon after, but not till after that time. Mr. Reed, one of Davis’ counsel, had been authorized by the Attorney Gen eral to say to his client that the govern ment would direct his immediate release on the condition of his leaving the country and never returning, and that Davis in dignantly rejected the offer. Humble I,il’e. Toll me not that he’s a poor man, That his dross is coarse and bare; Toll me not his daily pittance Is a workman’s scanty fare. Toll me not his birth is humble, That his parentage is low ; Is lie honest in his action ? That is all I want to know. Is his word to be relied on ? Has his character no blame ? Then I care not if lie’s low born— Then I care not whence his name, Would he from an unjust action Turn away with scornful eye ? Would he, then, defraud another ? Sooner on the scaffold die. Would he spend his hard-gained earnings On a brother in distress ? Would lie succor the afflicted And the weak one’s wrongs redress ? Then lie is a man deserving Os my love and my esteem, And I care not what his birth-place In the eyes of man may seem. Let it be a low-thatched hovel— Let it be a clay-built cot— Let it be the parish workhouse— In my eye it matters not. And if others will disown him, As inferior to their caste, Let them do it—l’ll befriend him As <t brother to the last. [Laris Correspondence of the New Yorli Express.] I’lic Emperor Continues Very 111 Mys terious Whisperings and Surmisings— Popular Superstitious—Apprehensions of Some Pending Catastrophe. Paris, August 17, 1866. The Prussians and the needle gun are now thrown into the shade, the French having other things tothiyk of. The Em | peror is seriously ill. The papers say notli ; ing—-but can such things be kept se | It is stated by those who belong to the ! entourage of the Emperor, that the malady I under which he is laboring leaves us but little hope that science will be able to get | the better of it. Ever since the Moniteur informed the public that His majesty had I been obliged to give up taking the waters at Vichy, lii.s health had been gradually declining, and a proof that there is more than meets the eye is, that the Camp of Galons, which was to have been visited by the Emperor, has been suddenly raised. His Majesty is suffering from diabetes, ac companied by attacks of fainting fits, which sometimes last for a considerable time. \V e are informed that such is the cer tainty with which a catastrophe is expect ed at St. Cloud, that the officers on guard at the palace, on being suddenly called out to present arms to the Empress of' Mex ico, exclaimed— “He is dead! He is dead !” fancying that His Majesty was no more. There is now a general anxiety in the public mind. Both friends and enemies of'the present dynasty look with awe at the probability of a general upset. Napoleon the Third’s Government has been one of such a personal character, that it would seem that he. once away, the wholemachin ery must come to a sudden stop. Superstitious people, whose number is legion, in the city of free thinkers, attach much importance to a dreadful catastrophe, which took ulace on the fete day of the Emperor. Whilst the fireworks were be ing let off on the banks of the Seine, the crowd was so great on the Place de la corde. that several accidents took place. The public journals inform us that several persons have since died of their contusions, and many others lie in a very precarious state in the different hospitals of Paris. Those superstitious jieople of whom I speak, bring to our recollections the dread ful catastrophe which took place on the Place de la Concorde, during the festivities on the occasion of the wedding of Louis XVI., with the unfortunate Maria An toinette of Austria, and that which took place the year beiore the death of the Duke of Orleans, the eldest son of Louis Phillippe, who met with his death from ha ving sprung out of his carriage, , when driving on the road to Xeuillr in 1542.

The infant a mother attended and loved, Tlie mother, that infant's affection who proved; The father, that mother and infant who blest — Each, all are away to their dwelling of rest.

So the multitude goes, like the flower or the w eed, j That withers away to let others succeed; So the multitude come, even those we be hold, To repeat every tale that has often heen torn. ! For we are tlie same our fathers have been j We see the same sights our lathers have ] seen; i We drink the same stream, we see the same sun, j And run the same course our fathers have ! run. The thoughts we are thinking our fathers did think; From the death we are shrinking our fath ers did shrink; To the life we are clinging our fathers did cling, But it speeds from us all like the bird on the wing. They loved—but the story we cannot un fold ; Theyscorned—but the heart of the haughty is cold; They grieved—but no wail from their slumbers will come; They joyed—but the tongue of their glad ness is dumb. They died—ah ! they- died—we, things that are now, That walk on the turf that has over their brow, And make in their dwellings a transient abode, Meet the tilings that they met on their pil grimage road. Yea, hope and despondency, pleasure and pain, Are mingled together in sunshine and rain, And tlie smile and tlie tear, and the song and tlie dirge, Still follow each other, like surge upon surge. ’Tis the wink of an eye; ’tis the draught of a breath, From tlie blossom of health to the paleness of death, From the gilded saloon to the bier and the shroud; Oh! why should the spirit of mortal be proud ? • Trifles. “1 here is no place like li°me,” said a brainless fop the other evening to a pretty young lady. “Do you really think so?” Said the young lady. “Oh yes,” was the reply. “Then,” said she, “why don’t you stay there.” The Mayor of a town in the west of England, questioning the boys at the rag ged schools, asked them what were the pomps and vanities of this wicked world. A little boy aid : ’“The Mayor and corpor ation going to Church, sir. ’ ’ A lady hired a Western country girl for “help,” and was surprised to see her poke her head into the parlor one afternoon when visitors were present, and ask:— “Marin, did you call juit now; I thought I hearn a yell. ’ ’ Among all tlie letters that came home from the East, during the Crimean wav, one of the most affecting was that of a little drummer-boy to his mother. After describing the hardships of that memora ble winter the cold and biting and pitiless wind, the hunger and nakedness, which the army endured, he concluded the letter with the simple and touching words, “Bat, mother, it’s our duty, and for our duty we will die.” Mr. Aytoun, the bard of Kinaldie, was particularly indifferent respecting his attire, but was noted for his powers both of com pliment and banter. Walking one fine morning on the Scores prominade at St. Andrew’s lie met a lady acquaintance whom he saluted with his usual courtesy. “Good morning, madam : how well you are looking to-day !” “I’m sorry I can’t return the complinent,” responded the lady, adverting to the plainness of the ap parel. “Poll!” said Mr. Aytoun, “you might have licit, as I did.” A young lady was sweeping the streets with a trail two yards long. A young man stepped upon it, partly tearing it from her waist. She turned shortly upon him, and said, “Sir, you are a rowdy. ” He retort ed, “Madam, you are a dowdy. ” “If I was a man, I would thrash you,” said she. “If you were pretty, I would kiss you.” “This is insufferable,” said the lady, gath ering up her calico and turning away. “That is true,” he replied, “whotheryour remark applies to yourself, your dress, or the weather. ’ ’ A correspondent writing from Arkansas Springs, describes a wedding which took place between two persons who had never seen each other until the day before. The next morning two or three waggish fellows informed him that his wile had a twin sis ter, that they were so much alike it was difficult, to tell them apart, and that he had married the wrong one. The poor fellow without saying anything to his wife, went directly to the magistrate and wished him to “undo what he had done, and marry him to the right gal,” The worthy squire told him that if he had known this the eyening before, he would have fixed it right, but too much time had elapsed, and it was too late! The common phrase, “Give the devil his due,” was turned very wittily by a member of the bar of North Carolina on three of his legal brethren. During the trial of a cause, “Hillman, Dews and Swain” (all distinguished lawyers), hand ed to John Dodge, the Clerk of the Su premo Court, the following epitaph : “Here lies John Dodge, who doged all good, And never dodged an evil; And after dodging all he could, He could not dodge the devil!” Mr. Dodge immediately sent back to the gentlemen the annexed impromptu re ply : “Here lies a Hillman and a Swain, Their lot lot no mau choose ; They lived in sin and died in pain, And the devil got his dues ! (Dews,)” Seven out of nine counties in California heard from, have gone lor the President's policy. Dr. A. A. Gould. President of the Mas sachusetts Medical Society, and a widely known physician, is dead. The Democrats carried their whole tick et at the municipal election in Alton, 111., | the other day. That is a good beginning. The Washington Chronicle in an edito rial, urges Congress to enroll the negroes ) of the South into militia organizations. What's ip the wind ? The Conservatives of Illinois claim that they will elect nine members of Congress | at the next election. The Eriarfield Iron Works, Alabama, : under the superintendence of Gen. L.

Cholera has nearly disappeared from Chicago. But one death was reported on the 14th. Major Joseph Stephens, sixty-one years of age. thirty-six inches high, and weigh ing forty ; ftve pounds, died of apoplexy at Lyman, Mo., recently. As the Rev. Mr. Law was kneeling to prav, at the Mosherville, Ohio, M. E. Church, on the night of the 9th iust., he fell aud expired in the pulpit. A man calling himself C. C.

The Chambers Tribune says that one of our adjoining counties, Randolph, is now one vast Uuion League society, and even here in Chambers county, we hear of socie ties forming and being largely attended. The cholera is prevailing to an alarming extent in Vicksburg. The disease has as sumed a very malignant type, and some of the oldest and best citizens have been stricken down. Ratification Meetings. The last Southern Watchman contains the proceed ings of meetings recently held in the coun ties ol Madison. Franklin, and Banks- to ratify the proceedings of the Philadelphia Convention. AGRICULTURAL. American vs. English Fanning. Mr. X. A. Willard, of the Utica Herald, who went to Europe last spring, for the purpose of investigating the system of farm management in that country, writes : “I have often read accounts ot the im mense crops of hay grown upon the meadows in England. 1 think there must be exceptions, for wherever I have been I have seen no larger bulk of hay upon the ground than in America. 1 have taken special pains to make examinations ot fields, with a view of comparing crops in the two countries, and I have vet - to be convinced that the production here is so large, cu an average, as has been repre - sented. I can not speak so well of quality, as that, after all, is a matter to be determin ed by the manger. And I must say this for our farmers in New York, I have seen nothing in the harvesting of the crop that.-, is superior to the practice among our best farmers. I have visited llctham ated, Mr. (Lawes' estate) in some respects the most noted farm in the world, certainly in England, and many other fine farms where the hav was being cut and cured, and I can see’ nothing in tlie English prac tice whereby the grass is saved with more of its nutritive value than with us. The grass is cut in flower, either by machine or by hand, hay tedders are used, and if not fit for the stack it is put up in cocks. Everything is conducted in a most leisurely manner. The workmen are numerous, but : it would make a New York farmer ache to i see the slow, plodding way in which the work goes on. They have a very good horse rake upon wheels, with strong iron teeth, and the operator walks behind and dumps by pressing upon a lever. It is a very good machine for cleaning up after the bulk of the hay is taken off. though we j should esteem it much heavier than neces sary. At Rothamsted, two men were rak ; ing after the cart. They had long-headed ; rakes, in which were set curved teeth of | iron, and they cleaned up the hay by merely j dragging the rake. The head of the rake was some six feet in length, with a strong : branch handle. CURE FOR IIEAVEY HORSES. A correspondent of the Massachusetts Plowman, having had a large experience with animals afflicted with the disease in question, always with success, with a small amount of labor, submits the following : First, procure, if you have not one al ready, a head halter, and tie the horse so that he cannot eat the bedding; give for a few days but little feed, and that wet, not more than half the usual quantity, which will relieve the breathing; after which nutritious food is fed liberally with the grain, and less hay, and so long as you do so, your horse will not have the heaves. If the owner wishes to hurry recovery, a dose of physic (an ounce of powdered aloes) will unload the bowels quicker. I have owned several heavey horses, and after treating them as stated above, I have doubted whether they ever had the disease, but after (by accident) a large amount of hay had been devoured, the distressed breathing and double action of the flanks reasserted the facts. SOURCES OF FARM MANURE. W. H. White, of Windsor, Conn., writing to the Boston Cultivator, on tie resources a farmer has from which to draw fertilizers foi his land, asks: ‘ ‘Does the reader make the most of his resources? Is there noth ing left that can be converted into fertilizers material? How is it with the hog pen? Is that supplied with good material to ab sorb the liquid as well as the ammonia? A free supply will tend to keep the hogs clean and furnish a quantity of manure, Then there is a privy, which is too fre quently allowed to waste its ammonia, in stead of absorbents supplied to fix it. A tight vault, into which dry muck, plaster, loam, etc., may be introduced and mixed, will supply several loads of poudrette, su perior to what the market affords, with little labor. The lieu roost will supply several barrels of good guano, of the qual ity of which there is no question, when home manufactured by supply of dry loam, plaster, etc., with frequent overhauling.” A CHEAP SMOKE HOUSE. A correspondent of an exchange gives the following as his plan for building a smoke house: No farmer should be without a good smoke house, and such q one as will bo fire-proof and tolerably secure from thieves. Fifty hams can be smoked at one time in a smoke house seven by eight feet square. Mint- is six by seven, and is large enough for most farmers. I first dug all the ground out below, where the frost would reach, and filled it up to the surface with small stones. On this I laid my brick floor, in lime mortar. The walls are brick, eight inches thick and seven feet high, with a door on one side two feet wide. The door should be made of wood, and lined with sheet iron. For the top I put on joists, two by four, set. up edgewise, and eight and a half from centre to centre, covering with brick, and put on a heavy coat of mortar. I Duilt a small chimney on the top in the centre, arching it over and covering it with a shingle roof’ in the usual way. An arch should be built on the outside, with a small iron door to shut it up, similar to a stove door, with a hole from the arch through the wall of the smoke house, and an iron grate over it. This arch is much more convenient and better to put the fire in than to build the fire inside the smoke house, and the chim ney causes a draft through into the smoke house. G ood corn cobs or hickory wood are the best materials for making smoke for hams. The cost of such a smoke house as I have described is about thirty dollars, but will vary in different localities. Hints on Cooking, etc. I Recipe vs. Receipt. —Many writers, including some editors, use these words in i discriminately. Though Webster gives | the authority of Dryden and Arbuthnot f for this custom, it would seem preferable i to confine the use of the word “ receipt” to its proper sense, the receiving of some | thing, or the acknowledgment of its recep tion, and use “recipe” only for directions | for making compounds in cooking and I medicines. j Cream Beer. —Prepare a syrup thus: I Into 3 pints of water put 2i lbs. white j sugar, 2 ozs. tartaric acid, the juice of half Ia lemon, and boil together five minutes. ; Then stir into it half cup of flour previously I mixed up with some water. When nearly : cold, add the whites of 3 eggs well beateii, i and halfoz. essence of wintergreen. Put ! into a bottle and keep in a cool place. It is ready for use at once, but improves with age. _ To use, desolve 2 table spoonfuls of this in a tumbler of water, and stir in j teaspoonful soda. Always shako the bot tle well before using the syrup.— M. L. B. [A little white of an egg beaten and added to. the common soda-water gives a peculiar foaming or froth-like consistency to the fluid when the gas-water is drawn in. We saw the directions for adding the egg sold in the W est a few years ago, at $ 1 to $5 each, to owners of soda-water fountains. — Ed. \ Wedding Cake. —(Pronounced excel lent at a great many weddings, says the contributor: 1 lb. flour, 2 lbs raisins seeded and chopped, 2 lbs. currants, l lb. citron, 1 lb. sugar, j lbs. butter, 10 eggs, two wine glasses brandy. Stir sugar and butter to a cream, add yolks of eggs’, then spicess then the flour in which has been rubbed 2 tcasponfuls cream of tartar and 1 of soda ; then the fruit, and lastly the whites of the eggs beaten to a froth. The spices are 1 tablespoouful ground cinna mon, 1 grated nutmeg, and one teaspoon ful cloves. The loaves require from one to two hours’ baking. Jelly Cake.—Mix 2 cups flour, 1 cup of milk, 1 cup sugar, i cup butter, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoonful sugar and 2 of cream of tar tar. Divide into six parts, and spread each as thin as possible in pans of uniform size. Bake about 3 minutes ; when done, lay together with layers of jelly between ; cov er up the upper layer with plenty of sugar sprinkled on, or with a thin frosting. Bachelor s Pone. —Stir well together 1 qrt. sweet milk or sour milk with soda, 2 tablespoonfuls lard. 2 eggs, 3 teacups white com meal, or enough to make a moderate stiff batter. Bake in a loaf in a quick oven. Red Ants. — After our safes, cupboards, etc., are washed and wiped as dry as they can be with a wrung cut ploth, we sprinkle on salt and rub it weli into the wood and all the cracks and crevices with the same! damp cloth, and have found it effectual ! against ants. — E. Carr. Camden, N. J. Soft Gingerbread.— Two cups molas- ! ses, j eup water. \ cup butter or lard, 1 teaspooufu! soda, ginger and salt as de- 1 sired ; mix thin with flour. “Hasty Pudding. — A housekeeper directs : ' Nine tablespoonfuls of flour, six eggs beaten light, one quart milk ; have a hot oven and bake 20 minutes. Eat with sauce : butter and sugar rubbed to a cream, and flavored to your taste, is very nice.” Such a hasty pudding must be nice, if one ha.' plenty of cheap eggs. \Fe should want some sugar in it. Our home manuscript book calls this recipe ".Sunder and Pudding. Indian Meal Pudding.—Put a tea cupfiil of meal into a teacupful of hot milk, knd 3 beaten eggs. \ tablespoonful ginger and cloves, butter half the size of an egg. Boil 2 or 3 hours in a boiler. Best Corn Bread.—Make a thick hat ter of 1 qttart of sweet milk, and 1 quart of buttermilk. 2 tablespoonful of saleratus and oue of salt. 1 teacup molasses. 2 tea cupfuls of wheat flour for shorts), and com meal enough to thicken it. Bake two hours in an oven a little hotter than for wheat bread. A loaf still nicer espec : ally for }>oor teeth, is made by using half the above quantity, steaming it three hours, and then baking enough to just brown the top mcely. Brown Bread,—Mi* 3 cups corn meal. 3 cups rye flour, j cup molasses with a teaspoonful of soda dissolved in it, with a sufficiency of cold water. Bake in a cover ed dish, about 3 hours, in a slow oven. Corn Dogers.— Salt and scald silted corn meal. When cool wet the hands in cold water and mold into cakes like biscuits, but not very thick. Bake rather slowly, on a griddle, in hot fat, browning first one side and then the other, Split open and eat while hot, with butter or syrup, or with meat and gravy. Preserving Green Corn.—To E. j*\ Green. Kalamazoo, Mich. We have tried various methods of bottling and can ning green corn, but never with satisfactory results. We have also eaten that put up by those who make a business of can ning fruits and vegetables, but the corn was always poor, to our taste. We know of no way to put up green corn successfully, except to cook it on the ears, then shave off and dry it in a strong sunlight, or by the fire, or in the oven. Preserved in this way it is very palatable at a season when g-eeu vegetables are scarce. Meat Balls. —A good way to use bits of cold meat. Cold beef or pork, chopped very fine, put into a dish with an egg to each i lb., crumbs of bread soaked and mashed fine, 2 onions (if liked) chopped well : season well with salt if fresh, and with pepper. Make into small cakes and fry in plenty of lard Heating Botltes for Fruit.— “ Su bscriber. '' of Columbus, N. J., writes that she washes and wipes the jars dry, and then sets them in the oven until too hot to handle without a cloth. As wanted they are taken out, set on a warm board and the hot fruit poured in. In this way she has broken only one bottle in three years. By the hot water plan, described on page 2C2 | (July), we have not broken one in putting up the last four hundred. Claret Wine Stains. —A Wilbraham j (Mass.) subscriber says that these may be I removed from a table cloth by rubbing the spot, as soon as made, tboroughlv with | common salt. When washed, the stain will entirely disappear. To Color Scarlet. —For one pound of cloth or yarn, mix in warm water, j once cream of tartar and 1 ounce pulverized coachneal ; add 2 ounces muriate of tin. Stir until it scalds, then put in the cloth or yarn.— Housekeeper, name unknown. Deserted. Tlie river flowed with the light on its breast, And the waves wore eddying by ; And the round, red sun went down in the West, When my love's loving lips to my lips were prest Under the evening sky- Now weeping alone bytlie river I stray, For my love has left me this many a day ; Left me to droop and die. As the river flowed then, the river flows still, In ripple, and foam, and spray, On by the Church, and round by the hill, And under the sluice by the old burnt mill, And out to the fading day ; But I love it no more, for delight grows cold When the song is sung and the tale is told, And the heart is'given away. Oh ! river, run far ! Oh ! river, run fast! Oh ! weeds, float on to the sea ! For the sun hasgonedown onmybeautiful past, And the hope that like bread on the waters I east, Have drifted away like thee ! So the dream it is fled and the day it is done, And my lips will murmer the name of one Who will never comp back to me.

The Scholastic year will consist of TIIIRTY-FIVE WEEKS of SESSION and TWO jf vaca tion at Christinas. The Misses SEDGWICK desire to make their School one of superior excellence, and no pains wiil be spared to accomplish their end. Augusta, from its central position from the well-known and universally re finement of its society, presents very superior advantages as a place wherein to establish such a SCHOOL. The house secured is LARGE and AIRY, the rooms commo dious and well ventilated, and attached is a large Orna mental Garden, presenting a desirable place for pleasant aiul healthful exercise. There will be a FRENCH GOVER NESS in the fa mil >, of established ability, with whom the younK ladies will be obliged always to converse in French. The Pupils will be under the constant supervision of EX PERIENCED and REFINED TEACHERS, and their Moral and Religious training will be carefully attended to. The course of study will embrace all the various English branches and Mathematics, necessary for a thorough and accomplished education, and will include VOCAL and IN STRUMENTAL MUSIC, DRAWING, PAINTING, and the LATIN, GERMAN and FRENCH LANGUAGES, VO CAL MUSIC will be a daily exercise in the School. As the number of Boarding Pupils is limited, preference will be given those who apply to enter the family for the Scholastic year. Circulars containing terms and additional particulars for both Boarding and Day Pupils maybe obtained by ad dressing the Principals. Classes will be formed in French, Vocal and Instrumental, Music and Drawing and Painting for those Youug Ladies who do not wish to enter the School asday pupils.
