We have not the space this week to notice his stock . particularly, but say to our readers, one and all, call and examine it for yourselves. In Full Bloom. On Thursday last -w were shewn by A. Manly, Esq.; living about a mile south of this village, a number of buds and blossoms, which he that morning picked-from a plum tree that was then in full bloom. The tree is known-aa the large blue plum,' and has already bore bee crop of fruit this season. . Can any one explain the phenomenon of its again blossoming. ' vBlake House. Those of our read ers who may have occasion to visit Niks, will do well to put up at the above popular house. Mr. Blake, tbe proprietor, is a perfect gentleman and "knows how to keep hotel." We can assure our friends that everything will be done by Mr.' Blake and bis estimable lady to make their stay agreeable in short if tbey are not made to feel perfectly at home it is their own fault.

Lovers of these delicious bivalves and who does not love thenw can always depend on finding Mac on hand ready to serve them up in a little better style than they can be got up at any other place in town. Give him a call. - Pole Raising by Boys!- On Satur day last, the boys of Volinia township, assembled at Gould's Hill, in Tolinia, and raised a beautiful pole one hundred and sixteen feet high, which they dedicated to Lincoln and Hamlin. . At the same .place a few weeks since the Dougla sites managed, after several trials, to raise a pole, fifty feet, but which is now completely overtopped by the boys' 'flag staff." And so the work goes on. A Vag. On Monday last, officers Clemmer -and Taylor arrested a woman, known hereabouts as "Big Ann," in the woodsabout half mile south or this village. She had with her a little boy some 5 years of age. She has lived in the woods, without any other shelter than the trees afforded, for tbe past four weeks. There were ' three beings, whom it were a libel to term men with her when arrested. She was taken before Jus tice Bowling, plead guilty, and fined fifty dollars, to stand committed until paid. 1 1 is to be regretted ' that notbiug coulJ be done with the men found with her, First Pbemitjm. Attention is called to the advertisement of "Patterson's Adjustable Hub Borer," in another column. Mr. Gantt, the proprietor, had one oi tnese nun-oorers on exhibi tion at the Missouri State Fair, held in St Louis, in September, and received the first premium, a beautiful silver medal. We have not seen this machine in operation, but from what we learn, should judge that it was the best and most useful thing of the kind yet invented. ' t"D. B. DeLand & Co.'s Saleratus is giving the most complete satisfaction to- house keepers, as it cannot fail to do. Its manufacturers are determined that it shall be pcbb, and are spar ing no expense to make this the most reliable brand of Saleratus ever offered to the public. It is for sale at retail by most grocers and storekeepers. The principal grocers throughout the county wholesale it. Manufactured at the Fairport Chemical Works, Fairport, Monroe Co., N. Y. Stealing . Chickens. On Sunday evening last, Elias Pardee, Esq., caught one of " Big Ann's " boarders, in his hen coop stealing chichens. The fellow had killed three fine' fat chickens, when Mr. Pardee hearing the noise, went to the hennery and caught him, just as he was pre paring to make off with his booty. The fellow begged so hard, that Mr. Pardee, after finding out all that could be learned in regard to the "sylvian retreat," let him depart, . i Smash Up. Quite a. destructive smash-up occurred on the Central Road, a few miles west of this village on Wednesday of last week. A heavy freight train, drawn by two. en gines, while running at their usual speed, became seperated from the engines, by the parting of a coupling a'portion of the coupling becoming de tached, fell upon the track an threw several of the forward cars of the train off the track, which were entirely demolished. 2o person injured that we hear of. - ' A Dirty Trick. We received a few days since from Jackson, in this State, a letter en closed in an envelope, upon one corner of which was a likeness of Lincoln, but so mutilated -by the low partizan official in the Jackson postoffice, by striking his cancelling stamp over the face, that it would be exceedingly difficult to tell whose likeness it was. When it is remembered that the Postoffice department is sustained by revenues derived frcm men of all parties, and is supposd to be maintained for the benefit of. the whole people, regardless of their political faith, all honorable men must pro nounce this a piece of petty tyranny, which shows a meanness that would be hard to beat. . . ., The State Fair. The State Fair at Detroit tast week, is represented by all who were present, as being a dicided success, both as regards the attendance and exhibition of articles. Among the list of premiums awarded, we notice that the West & Willson Sewing Machine, of which Geo. Smith" is agent for this village, was awarded the first pre mium as being the "best and cheapest family sew ing machine on the ground." About forty sewing machines were in competition. ; Also several pre miums- were awarded to Mrs. James Patton, this village for specimens of embroidery, needle work, te and a silver medal to James Patton for best model sash ballance. , A Sensible Speech by a .Maryland Con - gressman Henry Winter Davis' speech in Bal timore on Thursday evening was great ly applauded by an immense audience He made an able defense of Mr. Lin coin, declaring his views on the exten sion of slavery were precisely those of Henry Clay. The Republicans,' he said, only wanted to prevent slavery from going where it should not go. The "howl about disunion in case of Lincoln's election was only an instance of the game the Democracy have been playing for many years." There was no danger at all. "He was willing to do ; anything honorable to elect John Bell, but not to give half a yote to his political opponents.. Fusion tcould do Bell no good. If the Democrats really believed, Lincoln's defeat necessary to the salvation of the Union, let them vote for Bell, or agree to vote for Ever ett, in; case the election goes to the Senate. Then we might begin to be lieve they were in earnest, ; He thought it unwise to send the election into the House.'"' There. was a time when, had the election gone to the. House, and Lincoln been defeated, he believed eve ry Republican State would have gone for Bell ; but the insane method of con ducting the canvass has destroyed that chance, and not a single Republican State would vote for Bell in the House. Walker's Execution. Very inter esting accounts have been received by mail of the last hours of Gen. William Walker, the fillibnster. . Walker was heavily ironed and imprisoned at Trux illo, when he at once sent for a Catho lic priest. He - was executed on the 12th of September, ' at 8 o'clock in the morning. He walked to the place of execution with a crucifix in his hand, and at the head of a body of soldiery, which formed ia hollow square about him. Just before he was sht he said : "I am aRonian Catholic. The war which I made upon Honduras in accor dance with the, suggestions of some Ruatances, was unjust. Those who accompanied me are not to blame. I alone am gailty-- I ask pardon of the people. I receive death with resigna tion would that it may be the good of society." - The accounts all agree that he died with much fortitude. : As already stated, CoL Rudler was. .sentenced to four years imprisonment; The remain ing seventy of his company were par doned, and will be sent to this country. Death of John N. Dwight.- We regret to announco the very sudden death of one of our oldest, best known and most respectable citizens, on Mon day morning last. He had just risen from bed and was in the act of dress ing, when he suddenly fell upon the bed and expired. His disease was sup posed to be the affection of the heart Mr. D wight was one ot our first set tlers, and will be kindly remembered by a numerous and extensive circle of acquaintances and friend Jackson CUisen. Another Fusion Finality. It ap pears from the published official state ment that after various tribulations, the Know-Nothing, disunionist and Doug las fusion in New York, is accom plished. Hon. Greene C. Benson is substituted as Elector at Large in place of Hon. Reuben H. Walworth. John H. Bowen, Jacob A. Westervelt, Ste phen P. Russell, Wm. B. 5 Duncari, Vm. A. Kobbe, and Abraham B. Con ger are substituted for Charles A. Col lins, Oswald Ottendorfer; F. R. Tiilon, James Robinson, John Anderson, and Edward Ilaisht, as District Electors. And Hon. Wm. C. Crain, of Herkimer, is substituted as a candidate for Lieu-1 tenant Governor, in place of Hon. Wm. F. Allen.' There is still an element of discord, however. Mr. Greene, Chair man' of the Breckinridge State Com mittee, it is stated, expresses his deter mination to carrv the war to the bitter end, and Mr. Brady, Breckinridge can didate for Governor, it is announced, will stump the State until the election, against the ticket. . . ; For the Republican. ' Mr. Editor : Since my return from St. Louis, I see that the Cass paper has asserted ! that . I hold "that there was property in man." This is one of Mr. Douglas views,, which is not '.enter tamed by me. it 1 own a norso ora hog I can kill it, and no one will molest me; those who claim property in man, can not exeroise sovereignty in this way, -therefore the doctrine is false. All I claim, and all , the Breckinridge and Lane party claim is, that the mas ter owns the service of. the Slave. i Yours, &c., - . - - S. N. Gantt.' "The Lately Captured Slaver. The slaver J?nV: brought into New York, having been captured off the Af rican coast, had 879 negroes on board tho largest number ever, taken from a single slaver. - She was only 17 hours from Congo when taken ' The slaves were' all naked, and when rescued jumped and shouted, clapped their hands, and shouted for joy. The Erie is described as a nne sailor, bne was finely fitted up, and had slave coffers a sufficient quantity of water, vinegar in casks placed fore and aft, to last 900 people for sixty days, and an exceed ingly large quantity of. rice, pork, beef, farina, bread and peanuts. , The hold of tho .vessel was unusually neat, and kept in excellent order, mere was less filth found in the ship than is nsual with sravers, which was, perhaps, ow ing to the lact that a large crew were exclusively employed in preserving the healthv condition of the vessel." The sails are new and valaable,' and could not have been long in use. Tribune. CST'T.he Artizans' Bank New York has closed its doors and suspended bus iness ; its affairs have been placed in the hands of a receiver. By the last bank statement it appears that its con dition was as follows i Average amoun of loans and discounts, 1,363,360 average' amount of specie, $285,431 average amount of circulation, $95, 114; average of net deposits, $1,066, 418. The capital of the Bank is S600, 000 Thr Steamer Conn aught Burnt.- A despatch from Boston, says that the steamship Connaught from Galwav via St. Johns, took, fire Sunday morning, about 140 miles from. Boston Light. It is reported that all her passengers and crew were saved by the brig Minnie Scheeffer, and brought to Scituate.. A steam tug has gone there to tow the brig up to this city. She had about 600 passengers on board, all of whom were saved. The baggage was all lost. A FULL AND CHOICE ASSORTMENT OF LIQITOR.S OF ALL KINDS, W arrantcd Pure WILL AL WA YS BE FOUND A T O "W A.
