The Rain. Water from the heavens, when the water in ting, with blessings in its drops. Cisterns will be filled, the river will have a new supply, the lust will be laid, the corn will grow, the grass will spring up, and thirsty people will have a ohanoe for a ohoice drink of pure ater. When the universe is to be suspended, and man to eease, stop the water, and ha will be nowhere. Thanks for the rain 1 During the recent water epidemic, the street oisterns, filled some time since, were opened, and tbe people allowed to use tbe same. Crowds came, waited their turn, and went from wells and cisterns. We hope tbe gentle rain will terminate the "reign of terror." The Sham Battle at Chalons. The French Emperor is preparing for a sham fight at the Camp of Chalons, Forty thousand of the trained soldiers, fresh from Italy, are'to engage next month in a military tournament at Chalons.'' This is a historic battle ground for real and mlmio warfare. We are curious to know who will be invited from England. What distinguished military hero will attend from tho British Isles? Will Prince Albebt meet the French Emperor, in the field, lanoe In hand? Will any blood be spilt? Chalotu, Sur Saone, is on the right bank of the Saone, at the junction of several great roads, and con nected with the Mediterranean, Atlantio and the North Sea, by the Rhone, Saone, Loire and several large Canals. In 1273, Edwasd I, of England, being Invited to a-tournament on hit return from Palestine, attended with one thou sand men-at-arms, and some dispute having arisen, the English attacked the French, killed a great number of them, and left the tilting ground strewed with the dead. This event is known as the "little war of Chalon." The Cities. ' The cities have been thus classed : "New "York it the bead-quarters of commerce- a great wilderness of marble and mor tarthe abode of merchant-princes and millionaires. It harbor is crowded with ships from every nation ; its mammoth mer cantile establishments contain every variety of fabric and produce; its streets are busy as a broken ant heap; its spires point like fin gers of pilgrims, to the land of the Lcautiful above, and its grog-shops are plentiful as car buncles on the face of the toper. It baa the boat editors, and the poorest speakers, of any city in the Union. Philadelphia is noted for handsome buildings erected on straight lines; it is the metropolis of inagazinedom where Oradau and Govr.r make gold, and win golden honora; it is famed for the brotherly love of its Inhabitants, which trait is beauti , fully displayed In the manner in which they get op rows and send their fellow-citizens to "kingdom come." Boston is the bank of 2?ew England, tbe beacon-light of reform, the eat of science anil learning, the forum of 'chaste, classical, thrilling, heart-quaking, soul-stirring eloquence. There is no city in the United States that contains so much speaking talent as Boston. Baltimore Is choleric, noisy and patriotic; Philadelphia is fastidious, lymphatic and metaphysical; Washington while Congres is in session Is like Babel, where there is a confusion of languages or, like a vineyard of lazy labor ers, where there , is a ' "winey" atmosphere; New York " is .energetici , bombastic and original; Cinoinnati is slow of speech, but sound at heart; Boston is radical, forcible), eloquent." The American Mechanic and Laborer. Happily, In this free country, there are no privileged orders ; citiiens take position ac cording to worth and merit, and not aooording to wealth and means. Huge inequalities ap pear, however, between men, many of which are superimposed by erroneous custom! but they can be surmounted by individual exertion by personal character exacting what is due. Our Institutions are based upon the people's capacity to govern themselves, and oooasions occur to awaken men to their vassalage and subjection to Iron customs whloh gall like a fixed yoke on the neck. LABORERS SHOULD NOT HAVE UNREASONABLE TASKS. Tbe first tubjeotion that men feel to be un just and onerous, is unreliable tasks In daily labor. It Is just that Ml should gain their bread by the sweat of their brows It is sweet bread thus earned but the sweat should not make distasteful the bread. Man should not be over-worked. AMERICAN LABORERS ARE THE STATE. Laboring men in America are the State. There is no patent-right Issued to any one in the long alphabet of names of a free people, conferring rpaoial distinctions not aooorded by the consent of the governed. IN EDUCATED LABOR AMERICANS PLACE THEIR TRUST. In this e xcelleoey, nnd in the surety and fix edness of this principle of equality, education is not only important, but like virtue, is msch" Hal, to seoure the poor man, so-called, a proper plaoe in sooiety. WE ARE ALL LABORERS. As all mUBt work to live, all are laborers, and, as the commerce wo enguge in, anil by which we get great gain, is but exchange of the products of the labor of tho artisan and the agriculturist, we in America are all mechanics and laborers. HOW MANY HOURS SHALL WE LABOR? As there are a largo number of the opera tives mere eiye, working for wages for others, it would seem necessary to agree to regulation as to houri cf lalor, which would not break down the laborer, but would afford him some little leisure for sclf-culturo, and rescue him from being a machine kept run ning to serve others altogether. THE TRUE AMERICAN QUESTION. The cause of tho operative is one peculiarly American; it is the cause of the one who votes of one who may bo the President the Governor it is tho cause of tho fathers of American children, and of the heads American families it is the cause of those who are the people, who mould public opinion. HOW MANY HOURS? How many hours, then, should an Amer ican laborer work? We mean work, when wo say work; we moan intelligent work, skill ful work; work that's well done when done; honest work, honest in tho devotion of full time while employed, nnd honest in the com pleteness of what is done. How long shall a sincere, tip-lop lnboror in his profession servo his employer? OVER-WORK IS BAD WORK. Is not a service rendered beyond a reason able time, a deterioration of the person fork ing, by ignoring the law of nature, that man is a compound being? A GOOD RULE TO WORK BY. There was a day when oporativea of an order tbatereotod foundations and magnificent tem ples, "wrought their regular hours." Tbe admonition, now, of speculative Masonry, should have an appreciating observance by Amerioan employors and employe. As the twenty-four inch gauge, or the instrument made use of by builders, to measure and lay out their work, it divided Into twenty-four equal parts, emblematical of tbe twenty-four hours of tbe day, we are taught, the more noble and glorious purpose of dividing our time. As it is thus emblematic, we are taught to divide each day into three parts, devoting part fur the service of God and distressed fellow men who all are our brethren; a part for our usual avocations; and a part, for refreshment and tleep. THE ONE MAN STRIKE. In tbe United States, then, the skillful laborer should not be made a drudge. It is the desire of the Penny Press, to favor a per sonal strike on tho partjof each laborer. Each one should not esteem himself more highly than he ought; but every man everywhere, has certain peculiar endowments and gifts, which, if cultivated would elevate to a proper distinction him who properly derelopes his advantages. PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE AND REFORM. Spur up then, each laborer, in field and workshop, and labor with a will, with the un derstanding and with hope. How many hours should an American operative be called upon to work at hit daily task, It will be seen, is an important question. Wait not, then, native or adopted laborer, for concert, to strike for the golden mean in labor ; perfeot yourself in your art, your speciality, take ears of your health, and declare your own independence, not in revolt, but In reform. Plabtkhino. We learn that the following are the rules of measurement of work done by plasterers in Cincinnati: 1. All work shall be measured superficially, ineludtng openings. All bights shall be taken from the floor to tho ceiling. 2. All staircases, eight feet wide and under, shall be meaaured double; all over eight feet, once and a half. 3. All passages, four feet wide and under, shall be measured once and a half; all over four feet, once and a fourth. 4. AH lnollned ceil ings to measure once and a half. 6. All dor mer windows, closeta and privies, to be meas ured double. 6. All ootagon and circular work, exoept oeillngs of rooms, to be measured dou ble. All areh ceilings of rooms to be meas ured onco and a half. 7. The deduction for openings, occasioned by doors and windows, when the workman furnishes materials, shall be, for lath work one-eighth, for brick walls one-fonrtb. 8. Tbe materials for scaffolding and mortar'beda, and vessels for holding water, are in all eases to be furnished by the em ployer. Vandalism Faults on Moth Sides. It appesrs that the Nova Scotia Telegraph Company have got into trouble with the author ities of Halifax. In attempting to erect tbeir posts In the streets without permit, eolllslons ensued, wires displaced and potts cut down; finally, on the other side, the stable and horses of the opposition Express were burnt nd destroyed. PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE AND REFORM. General O. Hinton. Formerly of this State, is announoed at an independent Semocratlo candidate for County Jndge of Sonoma, New Mexio. It will be remembered that General Ilinton, lays a California paper, was an extensive mail contractor in tbe State of Ohio, and was detected in the most astonishing mail rob beries ever brought to light in the United States. He was arrested and escaped, and for months eluded the vigilance of tbe officers, notwithstanding the most thorough pursuit ever known in that country. The whole polioe system of the State was aroused, rendering it impossible for him to pass from its borders. After several weeks of such vigilance, the wily fugitive was rearrested, but he had influen tial and wealthy friends, and a brother-in-law went his bail for $10,000. This bond General 0. Ilinton forfeited, and escaped to California. Here he was pursued by Officer Mills, of Akron, Ohio, and was fol lowed from place to place in California and Oregon, finally escaping, if we mistake not, to the Sandwioh Islands. At any rate, the officer was unable to arrest the fugitive, and returned, after a fruitless chose, to Ohio. Expansive Force or Slow Oxtdatiok or Iron. At a late meeting of the Manchester Philosophieal Society, says the Scientific Ameri can, II. M. Ormorod produced two epcoimens of iron used in buildings which have beoome so oxydized as to injure the structures in which they had been used. An iron oramp taken from a buttress of the Manchester Parish Charoh had become treble i's own thicknoss by rust and bad thus split the building in tho oentre, and lifted about twelve feet of the wall. It was inserted about ninety years ngo. The othor piece of iron was a smail wedge taken from the steeple of St. Mary's Church; it was three eighths of an inch originally, but had Inoreased to seven-eighths of an inch with the rust. There were several wedges used, and these had lifted the stones whloh they were meant to keerj in their nlaces. and aomo of them had even been split by the slow but certain force of rust expansion, ine steeple was ereoted in 17.'6, and the upper part had become so ruin ous by these wedges that it had to be taken down pursuant to a notice given by the city surveyor. a Great Hail Stbm. An extraordinary hail storm passed ovor Northampton last Wednes day afternoon. It commenoed as far west as the .'eastern boundary of Chesterfield, and ex tended in an easterly dlreotion as far as Ilad ley. Its greatest force was at Robert's Meadow, Leeds and Horse Mountain, where hail fell so plentifully that the ground was completely oovered, tbe fields looking white. Tho stones were of almost marvellous size. At Robert's Meadow and Leeds stones fell that measured leven imhtt iu ciroumfermec. Stones measuring four or five inobet fell by the thousand. A great many panes of glass wero broken, particularly in Leeds. Fortunately it passed over a region not extensively culti vated, but where it found oorn and tobacco fields it made Bad bavoo, particularly with the latter. Worcester Transcript. ffC-iFA million years ago, there lived among the slant forms of this young world, the eoni of invention 1 huge fruits and flowers of rank and noisome growth, ohokeu the dark dells with worse than upas vapors; unsightly crea tures crawled with slimy tracks, and sported their heinous forms in oumbrous gambols ; they lived and passed away others came and so through tbe ions oenturies or time, race tol lows race, until man, tho mavtor, came. The Eternal procession of time displayed invention from birth to death, from year to year ; ex panded fields waved with grain, temples looked proudly from tho earth, machinery gave countless hands to few. Invention still adds ber blessings to the world. The last work of this extraordinary geni was the sowiDpr-ma chine, sold by P, Evens, Sr., oorner Main and 1 ourth-Btreets well known as Evens . A Wisconsin Lawtkr Murdered. A. letter from Lacrosse, Wisconsin, Augut 10, says: The Hon. H m. pennison, of this city, was yesterday beaten to death while out in Mor mon Cooley, somo fourteen miles from town, with a brother-in-law, trouting. Some words passed between them, nbont their right to tako the trout from their lands, when they came to blows, which resulted in the above. The parties (father, two sons and two daugh ters,) are now safely lodged in jail. Much excitement prevails in town, Mr, D. was at the head of the law profession, partner of the present Mayor, and much respected by the community. Tho deceased was formerly of Freedom, Portage Couuty, Ohio. Emigration Across the Plains. Mr. Gree ley, in a letter from Salt Lake City, dated July 12, estimates the total number of emigrants now on the plains and bound for California at about thirty thousand persons, with teams of oxen, mules, horses, and loose cattle, amount ing at tho start to littlo less than one hundred thousand head. Of these more than half are working oxen. The emigration oovors tbe great trail for an extent more than seven hundred milos, or fully half tb,e distance from the settlements of Kansas to those of California west of the Sierra Nevada. Tho bead of this magnificent oolumn will enter the valley of the Sacramento early in August; its extreme rear will be struggling down the mountain slopes, sad, lank and footsore, as late as the first of October. The London Times. A correspondent says: The London Timet has eighteen reporters at the Houses of Parliament, and for these, as well as the majority of its compositors, the working hours are the night hours exclusively. It owns four cabs, which are employed solely in carry ing reporters and reports at nlghtto and fro be. twoen Printing-house Squaro and the Palace at Westminster. Tbe roporters relieve each other at tbe House every quarter hour, and thus, though tho debate in the Commons lasts till four o'clock in the morning, the Tiiae gives it in full by sunrise, though it cover two whole pages of thejournal. Tho following from theChioago Trihun is good; in fact, very good, and cannot be passed by bocause it is personal : Into Him. A vaporing Cinoinnatlan at the Tremont Houeo, expatiating on the "vine clad hills," ic, olaimerl that tho Ohio was "the Rhine of tbe New World." "Yes," ejaculated old X . tho pork- Rhino." There was a pause, then several exploded, and then the crowd took a last view of the whole subject through tho bottoms of glass tumblers, at the expense of tho Hogopolis man. The Southern Cotton Crop. The boll-worm. is said to nave made its appearance among the ootton in South-western Georgia,in oonsequence of the protraoted wot weather. In many parts of middle Georgia, they can, it is alleged, do no harm, for thero are very few bolls for them to destroy. The Selma (Alabama) Courier also complains of tho ravages of the boll-worm on the bottom-lands in that State, but expresses tbe hope that the damage will not prove gen eral. pS' Mary A. Sam mis has commenoed suit, in Suoramento, for a divorce from her husband, Benjamin W. Summis. They were marriod in Saoramento in 1863, and went to Dayton, Ohio, in 1854. Dofendant returned to Califor nia and corresponded with plaintiff until June, 1855, when, as she alloges,'he wholly aban doned her, and withheld necessary supplies. Ail Old Turtle. Mr. Isaao Hoover, living near New Holland, Pennsylvania, found in one of his fields, a fow days since, a land turtle with tbe date and Initials, "18101. II.," out on the under shell by himself in that year. The turtle was alive and active, and not any larger than it was forty-nine years ago. pF "Tho pen is mightier than the sword." A Lieutenant in tbe army recently undertook to flog tbe editor of the Indianola( Texas) (Vu ttlte. Th tables were turned on him, and he himself was mads the recipient of a severe, but doubtless deserved castigatioo. - LATEST BY TELEGRAPH. REPORTED FOR THE PENNY PRESS. From Washington. Washington, August 22. The Adminis tration has bestowed on tho subject of the African slave-trade its earnest attention, and with a view of auppressinjr as far as possible this traffic, has initiated measures more effi cient and more extensive then ever before for that purpose. The squadron for tho coast of Africa, as arranged by tho Secretary of the Navy, will consist of tho following named vessels; The steamers Mijme, Sampler, San Jacinto and Mohitjnn, and tho sloops-of-war Uonitellation (toe nas-ship). rortumoullt, Ma rion and Yincmne: The most efficient offi cers are assigned to their command. Those of the steamers Myitie and Snmpter are, re spectively, .Lieutenant W. . x,eroy nnd Xiientenaiit 0. i . Armstrong. These gentle men were, at their own request, ordered to this service; their vessels being of light draft, can penetrate waters too shallow for those which have heretoture been on that coast, besides having the advantage of steam. Hence, slavers will bo more closely pursued. The joint treaty with England requires that the United States shall keep there a force of eighty guns, but by recent arrangement on the part of the Administration the num ber of our guns will be one hundred and six teen. Mr. Birney, who sucoeeds Mr. Morse, as naval storekeeper, went ont in tbe Constella tion, with instruction to remove the naval de pot for the African squadron, from Port Praya to San Paul de Leander, which is three hun dred and thirty-six miles distant from Port Praya. This new depot will consequently be much nearer than the former to the prlnoipal points of trafiio on the coast, and will, in a great measure, obviate tbe necessity of a long cruise. On our own coast, too, there is to be an effici ent naval forco, composed of the steamers Cru sadvr, Lieutenant Jlaffott; the Mohawk, Lieu tenant Craven; the "Wyandotte, Lieutenant Stanley; and the Fallow, Commander G. G. Williamson. They are to cruise in the neigh borhool of Cuba, for the purpose of capturing any slavers whloh may, by their expertness, escape the vigilance of our naval force on the African ooast, These arrangements will soon go into full operations, and the Secretary of tbe Navy is now hurrying tbe preparation of sucn 01 tne vessels as are yet in port for this Important service. Fire in Boston. Boston, August 22. Yesterday morning a fire broke out in the City Hospital Building, on Deer Island, which led to a general fire-alarm In the city, and several engine companies were dispatched to the Island; but tba fire, for tunately, was oonfined to the east wing, and the main building escaped damage. The up per part of the east wing, used as a house of reformamation for juvenile offenders, was des troyed. The loss is estimated at from $10,000 to $20,000. Throe boys William Coughlin, Thomas Gordon and J. Biley confessed to setting tbe building on fire, by plaoiog 00m bustikles In the ventilator. It was intended to set it on fire at midnight ; but Coughlin, who applied the match, overslept that time. Riley was formerly an inmate of the Reform School, and has twice attempted its destruction. Fire at Halifax—The Express Horses of the Associated Press Destroyed. Sackvule, N. B., August 22. We learn from Halifax that MoKays stable at Touro has been burnt, and that all the horses, ten in number, perished In tbe flames. As these horses are included with those used especially for expressing steamers' news from Halifax to Saokvillo, for the Associated Press, it is feared that there will be unusual delay with the Canada'i news, now really at hand. The fire was undoubtedly tbe work of an incendiary, and as it may bo a part of the machinery by which seme fraud is to be perpetrated in connection wita the next news from Europe, the com uiercial publio should bo more than usually cautious until the authentio intelligence shall have been received by tbe Associated Press. Later from Havana. New Oblkans, August 22. The steamship Cahaieba, with advices from Havana to the 18th instant, has arrived. Sugar was firm at 8 rials. Lard buoyant at 18(1 9o.

Leavenworth, August 22. Some confirma tion of the reported outbreak in the South has reached here on the Jag llawk. Mont gomery is reported to be in the field. Con siderable uneasiness existed in anticipation of a renewal of the old disturbances. The Niagara Railroad Convention. Niagara Falls, Aug. 22, The Convention has agreed to reduce the rates to Memphis, via Cairo, to 181 and 144, on first and second class, and 185 and 149 to points below Mem phisthe third and fourth classes to remain at present rates.

Californians Killed Indians on the Plains. [From the San Francisco Bulletin.] Oeorge Davis, of New York, who has just arrived in this city overland, via the South Pass, informs us that on June 17th, whilo pass ing up the Sweetwater River, near South Pass, his party discovered a man named O. II. Hall, lying in the road mortally wounded. They took him up and oarried him with them till June 19th, when he died. From the wounded men Mr. Davis obtained tbe following narra tive, which he has kindly furnished na: They were all sleeping, when the Indians stole in upon their camp, and seizing the guns fired upon the sleepers, killinr Steph enson and Moore, and fatally wounding Hall, who was shot through the shoulder and hip. Captain Florence sprang upon an Indian who carried a club. At this point of tbe affair, Hall fainted. When he returned to con sciousness again, he found that the teut was rilled of its contents, and himself stripped all his clothing. On April 30, Mr. C. H. Hall, of Cinoinnati, Ohio, George Stephenson, of Pittsburor. Penn.. and David Moore, of Lanonster County, Penn., nwl ft, II -Mi -e n 1 auw v.uvmu USUI J.'Juruuu UI lnrilB10. Penn., left Sacramento with the intention going to the East overland. After reaching the Sweetwater River on the 15th, Moore fell siok and the party baited in a canon on the banks of the river, about fifty miles from South Pass. On tho third day of their halt, tboy were suprised by a party of Crow Indians. Upon turnlcg his eyes aside, he saw Captain Florence standing bound hand and foot about ten yards distant, and the Indians holding oouneil, In their own language, a few yards further off. In a short time they led Captain Florenoe away, and soon afterwards Hall heard the trampling of horses. Tbe Indians bad gone off with their prisoner, leaving Hall, whom they supposed to be dead, without clothing or food. Although mortally injured, he mansged In tho course of a oouple of days to walk half mile aad readied the main road, where be fell and remained two days, when Mr. Davis and his party passed and picked him up. The party spent some time seeking for the Indians and Captain Florence, but without avail. All that could be found was a trail leading In the direction of the Crow nation. Captain Florence belonged to the Masonlo fraternity. MARRIED. At tli DpniilM.n iloue,ln llilirirv, liytheTlav, Clinton W.Hmw. IV it. H'Cinnusnir, Ksq,r.f Omaha, N.
