The Republican Platform. The National Republican Party qf the United States, assembled in National Convention, in the city qf Chicago, on the twentieth day qf May, 1868, wake the following declaration qf principles: First- We congratulate the country on the assur ed successs ol the reconstruction policy of Congress, as evinced by the adoption by a. majority of the States lately in rebellion, of constitutions se> firing equal civil and political rights to all. It is the duty ot the government to sustain these institutions and to prevent the people of such States irom being re mitted to a slate ot anarchy. Second—The guarantee by Congress ot equal sufl rage to all loyal men at the South wts demanded by every consideration of public safety, of gratitude, and ot justice, and must be maintained. The whole question of suffrage in the loyal States properly be longs to the people of those States. T hird—We denounce all forms of repudia'icn as a national crime. l*h»; national honor requires the payment of the public indebtedness in the utmost good faith, to all creditors at home and abroad, net only aceoidin* to the letter, bit to the spirit ot the law under which it was contracted. Fourth—It is due to the labor of the nation that taxation shall be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the national faith shall permit Filth—The national debt, contracted as it lias been tor the preservation of the Union for all time to come, sliou!d be extended over a fair period for redemption, and it is the duty of Congrtss to reduce the rate 01 interest thereon whenever It can be hon estly dene. Sixth—The best pot icy to diminish our burden of debt, Is to so improve our credit, that capitalists will seek to loan us money at lower rates of interest than we now pay^ar. 1 must continue t pay so long as re pudiation pMNRfNilotal, op. n or covert, is threat ened oi suspqrP^fe. Seventh—Tnf/Igovernmont of the United States should be administered with the strictest economy, and the corruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson, call loudly for a radical reform. Eighth.—We profoundly deplore the untimely and tragic death or Abraham Lincoln, and regret the ac cession of Andrew Johnson to the presidency; who lias acted treacherously to the i*ople who elected him and the cause he was pledged to support; who hasururpei high legislative and judicial functions; who has refused to execute the laws; who has used his high office to induce other officers to ignore and violate the iaws: who has employed his executive powers to render insecure the property, the i*eace, the liberty and the life of the citizen; who has abused the pardoning power; who has denounced the national legislature as unconstitutional; who has persistently and corruptly resisted by every measure in liis power every proper attempt at the reconstruction ol the States lately in rebellion; who has perverted the public patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption, and who has justly been im peached for high crimes and misdemeanors and prop ly pronounced guilty thereof by a vote ot 35 Sena tors. Ninth—The doctrine of Great Britain and other European powers, that because a man is once a sub ject he is always so, must be resisted at every haz ard by the United States as a relic of the 'feudal times, not authorized by the law of nations and at war with our ational honor and independence. Naturalized citizens are entitled to be protected in all their rights ot citizenship as though they were native born; and no citizen of the United Stans, native or naturalized, must be liable to wrest and imprisonment by any foreign power for acts done or words spoken in this country; and if they are so ar rested and imprisoned, it is the duty ot the govern ment to interfere in rlieir behalf. Tenth—Of all who were faithtul in the trials of the late war there were none entitled to more special honor than the brave soldiers and seamen who en dured the hardships of campaign aud cruise and Im perilled their lives in the service of the country. The bounties and pensions provided by law tor these brave defenders are obligations never to be forgot ten the widows and orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of the people—a sacred legacy be queathed to the nation’s fostering care. Eleventh—Foreign emigration, which in the past nas added so much to the wealth, development and resources, aud the increase of power to this nation, the asylum of the oppressed of all nations, should be fostered and encouraged by a liberal and just policy. Tw'elflb—This convention declares itself in sympa thy with all the oppressed peoples which are strug gling for their rights. Unanimously added, on motion ot Gen. Schurz Resolved, That we highly commend the spirit of mugnaiiim.ty and forbearance with which men who have served in the Rebellion, but who now frankly and honestly cooperate with us in restoring the peace ot the country aud reconstructing the Southern Siate governments u]x>n the basis of Impartial Jus tice aud Eqnal Rights, are received back into the communiou of the loyal people; and we lavor the re moval of the disqualifications and lestrictions impos ed upon the late Rebe's in the same measure as their spirit of loyalty will direct, and as may be consistent with the safety ol the loyal people. Resolved. That we recognize the great principles laid down in the immortal Declaration ot Independ ence, as the true foundation ot democratic govern ment; and we hail with gladrfes9 every effort towards makiqg these principles a living reality on every inch of American soil. Goldcu Days. September is gone—she came and went this year in most unlovely guise—and the mellow, serene October, the sweetest, if not the brightest, month of all the year is upon us. Nature now arrays herself in the full splendor of her ripened loveliness. The for ests flush and glow with ten thousand varied hues. The fields yet wear a living green; the few flowers which linger are gorgeous with a vivid intensity of coloring unknown to the earlier year. The bounteous, piled up har vests are gathered in amid feasting and jolli ty and the husbandman, with the cheerful consciousness of work well done, begins to look forward to his annual period of rest. Tiie mornings now are fresh and cool, with a sparkle in tne air that exhilerates like a draught of champagne wide. As the day ad vances a purple haze creeps over the sky, an impalpable, half etherial veil, softening, not dimming the splendor of the day, and invest ing the landscape with a tender and dreamy charm which no other season gives. Through this half spiritualized medium the gold and crimson of the forests and the silver of the streams gleam with a tempered splendor; and “The blue mountains, shapes which seem I,Ike wrecks u! childhood’s sunny dream,’’ lie dim and far-removed in an atmosphere of peace and rest and love. The summer’s ring ing sounds are hushed, and such a silence broods everywhere as it'nature paused in reverent stilluess to meditate on the com pleted miracle of the year. Then how gently the long sunny afternoon fade3 into the twilight. The dim haze melts away; the mountains, which were the color of a purple damson, grow clear and blue; the sun, wrapping himself in fold on fold of gor geous cloud, sinks away into his western bed, and the stars shine out with a mellow, gold en radiance, utterly unlike the sharp vitre ous brilliancy they will wear when winter comes. And the moon.—It surely must have been the October moon which Ben Jonson apostrophized as “Queeu and huntress chaste and fair:” In summer the moon is languish ing; in winter her light chills; and in the spring she is apt to be chary of her beams. It is only at this season, when sweeping low through the South, that she gives us ,ong succession of soil and brilliant night* more beautiful than any that tropical climes can boast. Indescribably sweet and tender is the charm of these mellow autumn days. The.r pensive beauty wins its way to the heart as the glowing life of summer and the wooing sweetness ot spring never do. A spirit of reverie is abroad in the air, and it weaves over the mind a soft and dreamy spell. The “mel ancholy days” have not yet come; they lie lat er on. It is true the leaves are changing and falling, but it is with ripeness, not with decay; and the sight is no more saddening than is that of the gathered grain. Happy those who have leisure now to spend much time out of doors, in the fields and woods. To those shut up in cities the real charm of tire season is lost, lor get they it in but infin:tes simal quantities; and like the “purl” witli which Hick Swiveller treated the marchion ess, “it can’t be tasted in sips.” One must have a long draught to appreciate the au tumn's “diviner air.” Then too it must be seized on the instant, for like many another of life’s best joys, it is extremely fleeting. But it is a singularly pure and satisfacufty pleas ure. and we would advise every one to whom the thing is possible not to miss it. Leave work and trade and politics, and for a single ay. at least, get out wiiere you can be face to face with nature; and tell us if in her ripened matron sweetness she wears not a charm more dear to the soul than the pride of summer or the flush of spring. The Pacific Kuilread *rr>,uU>| Tm pieties. The lails have been laid across the two great mountain ranges of the continent—the Kocky Mountains and the Sierra Nevada— and are being rapidly pushed onward along the intervening valleys. Many persons im agined, when the Pacific Railroad was pro jected, that it would halt at the mountain barriers. The result has been that the Cor porations entrusted with its construction have redoubled their energies as the work went on. Twelve hundred miles of the route between Omaha and Sacramento are made by the locomotive, and the gap of about five Hundred miles between the Eastern and Western portions will be further reduced by 250 miles before January. Verily, this is marvellous progress, and the Overland Kail road is no longer a thing of hope and conjec ture—it is almost an assured success. The Central Pacific Railroad Company who have in hand the Pacific half of the line, have built more than 200 miles since the first of July last, and have 100 miles graded in ad vance of their track. The glowing confi dence of the community in this Road is shown by the demand lor the First Mortgage Gold Bonds issued thereupon,which were two years ago offered at 06, are now selling at 103 and interest, in currency, and may go higher shortly. There is, we are informed, a proba bility that the remainder of the Loan will be disposed of wiihin a short time. Capitalists and others interested in such matters learn the particulars and foundation of the Bonds by reference to the advertisement of the Financial Agents, Messrs. Fisk and Hatch,of New Yotk.City, elsewhere in this issue. Wheat verona Held Gold dug from the bowels of the earth gave California a tremendous start in growth and population a lew years ago, and scarcely any thing else was thought of. Flour brought fab ulous pi ices, but gold from the placers could pay for it. Twelve years ago the gold prod uct in that State amounted to $40,000,000, and the wheat crop was of very little account. In comparison with the gold product it was hardly worthy ot notice; at least most people thought so. In 1868, the product in Califor nia is estimated at about $26,000,000. The year previous produced nearly the same amount. The wheat crop of 1868 is estima ted to amount to the same sum. The acreage sown is fixed at 2,500,000, igainst 1,500,000 in 1865, and yet the growth if grain in that country is in its infancy.— We hardly dare to guess the amount that will be grown there at no distant day. No loubt the product will be enormous and throw gold digging for into the shade. It has been trnely said the grain wealth of Califor nia will yet far exceed the gold dreams of her most enthusiastic citizens, for the golden kernels of wheat possess a value far in ex cess of her auciferous sands. The truth is, agriculture, and not gold dig ging, lies at the foundation of the wealth and prosperity of any country; and according to the present aspect of affairs in the Golden State and its neighbor, Oregon, it is the prod uct of the farms that is to add wealth to those States and sustain a rapidly increasing population. Where the soil and climate are favorable to agriculture, the cultivation of the earth will take the lead even if gold lies bur ied in the mountain sides, in gulches or in the bed of streams. A lew years ago flour was a dollar pj^^ound in some sections of California, and noto she sends large quanti ties across the Atlantic to Europe, aod even the farmers ot Maine have eaten bread made irom it.

The Proposed Wilhlawal »fl “The curled darlings of the Manhattan C u as the editors of the New York World are fa miliarly called, sitting in their sanctum Wed nesday night, forged a .hunderbolt, and bright and early Thursday morning hurled it—at the Democracy. The thunderbolt was insidiously Wrapped up in the following words: If our leaders should hecinvinced by the result of (ho late elections that some mistakes were made by not tollowing their original judgment; ;f those who disagreed with them in opinion now see that they misjudged: if there is any impediment to success which can yet lie removed by nolle daring or self-sacri ficing virtue, or a hold stroke of policy, now is the time lor action. It would lie an infinite pity, it, when we are so very near success, we should fail to win if by the lack 01' a little boldness Vaudure. Fai lure, tuujourr Fuudaec. Our prineiptM have not occu rejected in these •lections; there is no call 10 change them. All other elements of the canvass are light and trivial compared with the success of our prin ciples. It requires some great ess o* soul to act a bold part in an tnKX;.o.t*.d crisis, when everything adgs upon a swift and courageous decision, "in this hour, when the party stands with one loot >ver the brink of peril,-and the other on the edge of victory, the capacity of a few tneu to form a great resolution, may shape the destiuy ot the Country. We speak as unto wise men; judge ye what wc say. Then what a ferment and seething and boil ing of tjiH political caldron beganl The air for seven leagues around is said to have turn ed blue with the curses of Brick Pomeroy, who hates a coward. The editorial was telegraphed to Washing ton and set every Democratic politician in the District of Columbia into paroxysms, some of joy and hope and some of rage and cha grin. Some rushed to Chief Justice Chase and went down on their knees to the man who was kicked out of Tammany Hall. But the heart less wearer of the ermine mocked at them in their distress. Some hunted up Gen. Rosecrans, onr minis ter to Mexico who in accordance with the uni form practice of our appointees to that couit docs not go there,and asked his opinion; but he only shook his head gloomily and answered “too late! too late!” Montgomery Blair was also consulted.— Montgomery had a proposition. He would simply invert the ticket as it stauds at present, so as to put “brother Prank” on top. Pah! the anxious inquiters couldn’t entertain that proposition. Better give prominence to the New York riots and opposition to the late war than to the Broadhead letter and advocacy ol the new war. Ana ineu tue quesuoo vras, wnai email we do,—stick to Seymour and Blair and go to the bad” with dignity, letting the old Demo cratic party “die game” like a first class crim" inal, or follows the cowardly advice of “the curled darlings,” once more “crook the preg nant hinges ot the knee” to the Chief Justice and stake ail on a change of base? But here again was trouble: some wanted McClellan at the head of the ticket, while others wanted Hendricks and Hancock. There was nopos sibity of reconciling and harmonizing the con flicting views aud interests. Seriously, there is not the slightest pp'babi ifcy that tho*lead of the World will be followed. The suggestion of a change of candidates will have no olher effect than to disintegrate and reduce to a chaotic mob the ranks already broken by the charge of Republican voters at the polls on Tuesdajr. Nothing could be gain ed by such a change. It is repudiation and revolution that the people have condemned at the polls even more than their representatives* Bfymour ami Blair. It tlie Democrats should seoure suitable candidate!, what witi they do lor a platform? How can they now make a Dew platform? Tf they make a new declara tion of priucipies, what becomes of the great mass of their voters whom they have tor months beeu educating to venerate the accurs ed heresies of the New York platform? There would certainly be a split, and the Democracy would be in the same situation that they were in 1860. Besides, do they suppose that Frank Blair will voluntarily withdraw? Seymour may be easily managed, no doubt. He will merely fall Into Tllden’s irms and have “a good cry,” like a sick girl. But Blair is made of sterner stuff, and will prove troublesome. So this deatb-bed repentance comes too late. There is no hope of safety or even of delay. The great tide of popular enthus' mis rush ing on resistiessly and grandly ,esd on the third of November will bury the last vestige of Copperbeadism in the lowest depths. The beelection of Charles Sumner to the United States Senate is as cer;ain as that Massachusetts will go for Grant, The Repub lican State Convention virtullay nominated him lor the position, and the signs of the times point unmistakably to the endorsement ol the nomination by the people at the November election. Mr. Cbarlts Francis Adams has hoped to be the successor of Mr. Sumner, and his neutral conduct unon re timing to this country is attributed with a great deal of plausibility to a desire lo see how the political tide was turning. Even his ambitious son, John Quincy, did not accept the Democratic nomination for Governor until the action of the Republican convention mado it certaiu that his father could not be Senator. The re turn of Mr. Sumner to the Senate is a matter of national importance and l he certainty of his success will gratify an immense number of people. He is destined to serve a longer term in the Senate than has ever been accotded to any citiien of his State, the present being his third term. Messrs. Pierpont and Stewart gave $211,000 to the Republican campaign fund in New York but are greatly disgusted to find Mr. Helnibold,a wealthy druggest there, going $20, 000 better and giving $40,000 for the further ance of his political views, which are Demo cratic.— Argus. After all the resouces of legitimate medical science are exhausted it is usual for valetudi narian s to regort to quack doctors for aid iu restoring their shattered health. The result usually is that they ale helped--into the grave. It-now only remains for the sick Democracy to make proper disposal in a testimentary way of their coffee-pots, bludgeons, Seymour and Blair banners, pebbles for hurling at Re publican processions, forged naturalization papers and such other assets as they may have, take their $40,000 worth of Bucliu and die. Who is this “friend,” Mr. Argus, that re ceives letters from ail the prominent Demo crats who renounce the error ot their ways?— this “friend” to wnom they deny that they have repented? We believe that we see our old friend Mrs. Harris again through this filmy disguise. For instance, Mrs. H. received a let ter fVom Col. O’Beine, President of the Wash ington Conservative army and navy club, and °ne of the most prominent Fe'niam in the country, denying that he had joined the G rant and Colfax army. Yet, the same Col. O’Beine, as appears from the Boston Post, made a Re publican speech Thursday night. All that now remains to he done for Grant and Colfax is to give them a large popular ma jority, that they may give us peace without so much as a speck of discord. Let the doors of th« temple ot janu3 t,e t Let Maine do her best and give 28,000 or 30,000 thousand ma jority. The campaign here will probably not be resumed with the spirit that characterized the contest for Governor and members of Con gress, but individual effort should not be inter mitted. Every Republican voter should make it a matter of conscience to exert his influence in favor of the Republican ticket as actively as he did in September. What the Democrats Expected.—The New York Express, of Monday, said: “In Pennsylvania the Democrats promise to carry \Tr>m ""iorify; Perhaps by 10,000. The Democrats will, it is hoped elect a Democratic, l^islature, a„d thns retaia’ Mr. Buckalew in the United Slates Senate They hope to carry 18 out of 24 Congressional candidates. Ohio will no doubt do her duty by ns. The Radicals are talking about getting 30,000 majority; but they may consider them selves very fortunate if they are not beaten by nearly as large a figure. Modesty.—The editor of a Richmond paper begins a long editorial with the following words, which are almost painful on accouut of the overpowering modesty and self-distrust which they disclose: “Yesterday was a beau tiful day, such a day as nature’s God seemed to smile graciously jn approbation ot justice and in juft appreciation qf the mighty work accomplished by the editor of the New Na tion, the medium through which Republican ism in this State was first reflected.” Sixty three members of the 41st Congress have been already' elected—more than a fourth of the whole bouse. Conceding to the Demo crats all that they claim these sixty three members are divided between the parties thus: Republicans, 43: Democrats 18. -J —i-ii'-uge I tu a* ft CftHdUhltt!. E»efi the a*op>4tfcarable Democrat will soon to dis*fu0,Governor Boretnan, Republican, had i majority of 5644. The Republican ma jority lias varied from this figure to 12,714, wh'ch was Mr. Lincoln’s majority in 1864.— The Republicans claimed some gains on the election of 1867 for a legislature over the vote ofl866, and they are now confident of electing their whole State ticket and all the members of Congress. The New York Journal of Commerce now gives up all hope of electing Seymour. The number of fraudulent votes thrown in 'Philadelphia alone on Tuesday is estimated at ten thousand, and five thousand more are to he added lor other parts of the State. Gen. N. M. Curtis, always heretoiore a Con servative, writes to the editor ot the Ogdens hurg Journal declaring himself for Grant and Colfax. Hot). Washington Gilbert is mentioned by the Bath Times as a candidate tor Speaker of the House of Representatives. The Times says that while Mr. Gilbert does not wish to trouble members of the House by his personal solicitations, ho would he grateful for their fa vorable consideration. The St. Louis Democrat says Missouri is good for a Republican majority of twenty-five thousand, and will carry six ot the nine Con gressional Districts, certain—perhaps the whole. T"c Hartford Times exults over the discove y °*11 Conservative Beecher—Thomns K., a brother ol Henry Ward, who lives ill Elmira, New York. Ihe largest political ting ever made in this country was raised in New York on Saturday. It is thirty by forty in feet size, lias portraits of Grant and Colfax fifteen feet high, and the names of (lie candidates in gold letters two feet high. Lk Courrier des Etats Uni*, a French paper, which has given a cordial support to Seymour, contains a lengthy article upon the political situation, it regards the recent elections as i i' wu and then adds that the nomination of Seymour was W!1(ie Wlth J1G e ctation cf making hnu President in,» u,r but merely to secure New York state for the canvass in 1872 The Boston Journal bears of i or five lawyers in one of tbe inland towns of Massachusetts, who have recently declared themselves Republicans though they have always heretofore acted with the opposition. The marked advance of United States secur ities, both at home and abroad, is a conclusive evidence of the increased confidence felt by business men iu our financial condition, owing to the assured success of Grant. 1 he London Star says that President John son will visit England soon alter the fourth of March. ltelitfioilM —Tbe abolition of the order of the Jeiiiits atid the confiscation of their property by the Provisional Junta in Spain, is justly regarded as an important step towards the indepen dence of the Spanish people. There was as much need to break the shackles of ignorance and superstition as of political tyrauuy, and the Society ot Jesus in its very nature and purpose is the antagonist ot liberty. Its aim has always been the enslavement of the hu man mind. To be rid of its baneful power was an almost indispensable preliminary to the establishment of anything like freedom of thought. Once before, in 1767. the Jesuits were expelled from Spain by order of King Charles III. From the time ol their organiza tion by Ignatius Loyola, in 1540, they had in creased in numbers and audacity uutil they ventured to assert dominion in every Catholic country, and the power of the Society has ex cee ed that of Rome itself. But they at length overleaped the harriers of prudence, and in 1767 were driven from Spain by royal decree. At about the same time, other Catho lic countries, beginning to teel their tyrannical exactions and determined to rid themselves of their influence, expelled them from their do main also. But in 1814, the Pope, Pius VII., restored to them their confiscated property, and called upon all Catholic princes to afford them protection and lOliei. Such a command was biuding upon the catholic conscience, and the Jesuits proud and defiant re-entered the countries whence they had Deeu expeuea, ana in Spain anil elsewhere have not ceased to ex ercise a powerful influence. The force of rev olution has agaiu driven them away, and per haps the new influence of liberty may be suf ficient to resist their pressure, and secure for unhappy S ain the advantages of at least a more enlightened Catholicism.—Since the above was written we have news that one of the Catholic bishops of Spain has declared himself against the now government, and is organizing an aimed resistance. Doubtless he will have the support against the Junta of all those who prefer the unquestioned domina tion of Catholicism to liberty and progress for the people of Spain. This class is dangerous ly large. It will be for time to show which side is to triumph in this contest. —In the Episcopal Convention on Thurs day, the Committee on a Provincial system re ported the course proposed in 1865, dividing the church into six provinces, each to be gov erned by a Primate, and concluding with reso lutions that the couise be referred to a special t'ummutee or nve to cousiuer anu period, auu report to tbe Couveutiou. That alter the adoption of said canon the General Conven tion ot the Church he kn-uvu by the title of National Synod, and that a committee of five be appointed to dratt a new constitution tor the National Church. In the same body the report on the interpretation of that canon for violation of which Mr. Tyng was tried, was made the special order for yesterday. —Dr. Hedge, Unitarian, and Dr. Chapin, Uuiversalist, agree in recommending the es tablishment oi libera] preaching in Paris, France, because the only preaching in English there.is rigidly Calvinistic. —Rev. John T. McGrath, who has been rec tor of Christ Church, Gardiner, since the death of Bishop Burgess, resigned his charge last week, having accepted a call to Jackson, Michigan. —The Rev. J. A. Lowell has resigned his position as pastor of the Main Street Free Baptist church in Lewiston. —Tbe Kennebec Congregational Conference holds its semi annual meeting at Clinton, Tuesday, October 27th. —The annual couvention of Y. M. C. A.'s of Maine will be held at Bath, October 20th. —The “liberal Christians” of Farmington have purchased a lot for a church, and pews to the value of sixty have been subscribed for. The Great National Handicap. (Reported from a Racing Man.] The Republican and democratic stables each had two in, aud it was understood that one stable companion should help the other. The betting was even when the nays came on the course, although there were some doubts about tho democratic colt Blair, who was said to be a bolter. After one or two false staris the dem ocratic colts got off with the lead, but the dem ocratic colt Blair soon came in collision with his stable companion, Seymour, and ent him severely in the hoof, discovering the fact that it was slightly cloven, and he seemed at this to go a little lame and fell several lengths to the ri ar; hut the Republican colt, Grant, was pul led double, while the democratic colts, running now pretty nearly together, closed up the gap. But at the Maine turn the son ot Jesse made a brush, closely followed by his stable compan ion, Colfax, and opened a gap of about twenty lengths between himself and the horses of the democratic stable. Ulysses was soon palled hard again and Horatio began to close the gap, but it was evident from his distress that he was a poor weight-carrier, while the Republican nag took up his weight—which was heavy, too—very easily, and seemed certain of the re sult. Five to one was now freely offered an 1 not taken. At the Pennsylvania turn Horotio made a rush for Ulysses, but the cut on his hoof by bis stable companion, which had always been con sidered suspicious, now began to tell and he showed signs of lameness. At the Ohio turn Uly-ses let out a link, and catching a sight ot a rebel flag on the grand stand he increased his stride still more, while the audience shut their glasses and declared the race over, for Ulysses was now running easy and increasing his lead at every stride, while Horatio, his chances being over, was being pulled up. It was evident, too, that the Republican colt, being a long strider, would do better in tbe straight work of the home stretch, while the democratic colt had been beaten in what was considered favorable ground for him—namely, the tortuous part of the track.—[2Y Y. Post. A Mighty Project.—The idea of connect ing the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a ship canal seems at the outset to be almost as chi merical as the scheme ot building a railroad over the Atlantic. Yet this subject which was, discussed as long ago as the middle of the six teenth century, is revived again. The propo sition is to extend the canal from Panama to some point on the bay of Aspinwall, a-distauce of about 45 miles. The greatest elevation in this distance is 150 feet above tide water. The estimated cost of construction is fifty or eighty millions of dollars. Why may this not be done? Already ships of light draught are passing through the Suez canal from the Med iterranean to the Red Sea. The account from which we glean these particulars says: The deepest cutting required is 136 feet, the average cutting 49 feet, and the “summit cut” would he about four miles long. For a canal 270 feet wide on the suriace, 150 feet wide at the bottom, and 31 feet deep, the estimated cost is $30,000,000. But by the Gulf of Darien it is said that the highest elevation is but forty feet, aud that the distance from navigable water on one side to navigable water on the other is but thirty-four miles. This is, per haps, an under estimate, so far as the distance between the navigable waters is concerned, hut there can be no doubt of the favorable na ture of the topography. The Atrato river, which empties into one ocean, and the Sail Juan, which empties into the other, have their bead waters in the same swampy plain, and a canal practically for boat navigation was cut through as far hack as 1788. This shows the feasibility of the work, and is certainly an in teresting matter ot history, for the cutting of that caual was quite as complete a demonstra tion as all that has been accomplished by M. Lesseps at Baez, by the expenditure of fifty million dollars. A Call is in circulation for a National Wo men’s Convention to be held in Washington early in December. The object is probably to influence Congress in the matter of granting the franchise to women. The District of Co lumbia is the only place where the general government now has power to regulate suff rage except in the three unreconstructed States of Virginia, Mississippi and Texas. In those States affairs are already complicated enough without introducing any more novel ties. But in the District of Columbia there are all the conditions for making an experi ment which will either silence the clamor of the advocates of female suffrage or prove that their project is reasonable and proper. The hopes of the projectors of the convention are not so extravagant as might at first blush aj>> per. Last winter no less than twelve “grave Senators,” including the leading members of both political parties, Wade on one side and Buckalew on tho other, expressed a willing ness to grant the privilege desired. The Irish Republic uses plainer language to its own countrymen thau they often hear. It says: How, in God’s name, did our people join the slave party, among whom they could not ex ist, and oppose the party of frqftlom in the North, among whom they lived and prosper ed? This we leave for themselves to answer if they can. We bee to as3ure them, however, that breaking up Republican meetings, tiring into processions composed of wounded sol diers, and making “night hideous” with their howls, in Copperhead mobs, are hut melan choly returns to the great American people among whom they live. IVewi Items. A Valparaiso (Chili) letter dated September 16th says great fear prevails that a disastrous earthquake like that of August last was about to visit Chili, as some circumstances that pre sided that terrible calamity in Equador had been observable for several days. The people of Valparaiso in consequence of this appre hension voted according to custom lor a patron saint and elected the Saviour. Earthquake shocks are still felt iu Arigua and Africa, but the cities are so thoroughly i uined that no further damage can be ex pected. The recurrence of yellow fever is ap ple i oiled at Lima and Callao and strict sani tary measures have already been introduced. fWWWWIj Portland fttid Vldhlty, Veil' AdvC'tiifcCincnU this Oar.

Among others he visited a woman who is one hundred years and live mouths old. She is the widow of the late Richard Tobie, who died six years ago, aged almost ninety-three years. He and his wife lived together seventy-two years! The old lady retains her mental powers remarkably well. Strou lwater is her place of birth. Her name before marriage was Betsy Picket. She has been a very industrious woman and brought up a large family. When Portland was burnt in the war of the Revolution she says the men were engaged in war and the women had to do the work. She was then old enough to carry a pe:k of corn to mill, while her mother carried a half bushel. The mill, was in Saccarappa, three miles distant from their home, and when they returned from the gristmill they used to have a good time in baking paucakes and eat ing them. She can walk about without the use of a cane. 1 never saw a more striking picture of old age than she presents. She is indeed a very remarkable woman, aud through a long life has done a vast amount of spinning, weaving, knitting, sewing and other house work. There is an aged couple who live near her, Capt. Samuel True and wife, the former aged 87, the latter 80. They have lived iu the married state sixty-two years, and now do the work on the farm and in the house! Within a few years several persons have died in this town who had reached almost a cen tury. It must be confessed that the air in New Gloucester is very pure and conducive to long life. Capt. True says he can well remember when a “whipping-post” stood at the Lower Corner, upon which criminals received the lash for their offences. There has been some improvement in the administration of the law since that day, if criminals have not grown less in number. Sabbatii School Institute.—A County Sabbath School Institute, under the general superintendence of Mr. Pardee, the very suc cessful Sabbath School worker, will be held in Portland, Monday and Tuesday, October 26th and 27th. The exercises are expected to be of such a character as to greatly help superintend ents and teachers in the performance of their duties. The place of meeting is not determined, but delegates are requested to report them selves at the rooms of the Y. M. C. Association, corner of Congress and Brown streets The subject of forming a County Association will be considered. Trotting Match.—At the trotting match at Saco yesterday fod set of buildings, almost the entire crop of hay, grain, potatoes, from a large farm, together with two good horses, six cows and two swine—involving a los* of 83000, with but a small amount insured. SAGADAHOC COUNTT. In the first trotting match at the Fair in Topsham, on Thursday, the first prize of $100 was won by “Fleeting Moment” of Augusta, and the second prize of $20 by “Areola” of this city. In the second race the first prize of 850 was won by “Beauregard” of Augusta, and the second prize of $10 by “Fearful” of Me chanic Falls. WASHINGTON COUNTY, The Eastport Sentinel says the schooner W. B. Page, arrived on Monday from a mackerel cruise of six or seven weeks to the bay of Che leaux. The mackerel catch has proved a com plete failure this season, none of the vessels from the Bay having any thing like an aver age fare. YORK COUNTY. AVe learn from the Biddeford Union, that the house and barn of Nathan W. Stover ot Limerick, together with his household furni ture, clothing, farming utensils, crops and hog wore destroyed by fire on Sunday 4th instant, about 3 P. M. Nothing was saved except a Sewing machine bv a neighbor. Whole loss $1 ,100. Insurance $600. It was doubtless the work of an incendiary, as the family were ab sent at the time and the barn was fiist con sumed. Mr. Stover is a young man of good habits, and a returned soldier, minus his right arm, on whom this loss falls peculiarly severe. His townsmen are making him liberal dona tions in his time of need. Varieties. —In a recent canvass of the passengers of a Connecticut railroad train, the person who was making it sportively asked a grim, solemn old lady which way she would vote. She didn’t understand his question. “Are you for Grant or Seymour, madam?” repeated he. Grantersemer!” replied the indignant female, “Don’t know of any sich plaoe; I am a goin’ to Norwich!" —A jail, constructed completely of wrought iron, has been made in New York for Potosi, Washington county, Missouri. It is construct ed of heavy boiler iron, pauneled all round, is fifteen by sixteen feet upon its foundations, with walls seveu and a half feet high, aud is divided into three separate cells. The doors, folding beds, water-closets, wash-stands, &c., are all of iron. The whole work is massive, strong, and well eontrived, and of itself fur nishes a prison that a culprit once in would find it a hard job to get out of. This iron jail is to be set up within the hall of abrjpk prison —The origin of mahogany furniture is thus given in Dickens’s All the Year Round: A West Indian captain, about the beginning of the eighteenth century, had brought some logs of it as ballast for his ship, and gave them to his brother, Dr. Gibbons, au eminent physi cian, who was then building a house. The wood was thrown aside as too haid for the workmens tools. Some time afterwards his wife wanted a candle-box. The doctor thought of the West Indiau wood and out of that the box was made. Its color and polish tempted the doctor to have a bureau made of the same material, and this was thought so beautiful that it was shown to all his friends. The Duchess of Buckingham, who came to look at it, begged wood enough to make another bu reau for herself. Then the demand arose for more, and Honduras mahogany became a com won article ot trade. In Germany the experiment of keeping the public schools open only in the forenoou is found to answer admirably, and it will proba bly be universally adopted in that country.

Grief, fear and anxjety hurt by making the blood to circulate slower. Both causes may produce serious evils to the health unless pre vented by timely aid. Here we are admonished of the superior advantage of Brandreth’s Pills.— For it the blood goes too fast, from nervous or other causes, they alli\ the turmoil and are healing balm to the brain. While, should the blood circulate too slowly, tinting the skin with a dark hue, they at once relieve t he bl >od of its excess of carbon; thus they relieve the mind and restore the health. Should an organ he weaker than the rest, there impure matters from the blood will be deposited. This N the way umps, boils, tumors, carbuncles, are produced.

John Quincy Adams made a speech. "Mr. Adams said lia had come here by invitation, and therefore felt at liberty to give that most unpleasant of com modities, good advice. Ha said he had been a free soiler, a republican, voted for Lincoln, was a supporter of the war, and an enemy of slavery. This was his position at the close of the war, but when the southern people laid down their arms, and were ready to come back, be was ready to take them by tbe haud and receive then. Many of the best men of the Republican party held the same view. Then came the 13th am^ridment abolishing slavery, which was rat ified by all the southern States; then the 14lh amendment, containing the clause disfranchis ing tbe sourtliern leaders. Ho thought the southern people right in rejecting it. They could do no less. He then stated that the north bad always considered the people of tbe south who engaged in war as rebels, vid when conquered as prisoners of war, who had no right. They appealed to the constitution, but it was not their constitution. They fought against the reconstruction acts, and regarded (Southern States as foreign territory. Tbe chief difficulty now between the North ern and Southern people is not a difference of opinion. They thiuk nearly alike, but unfor tunately they don’t seem to uiiderstauil each other. People in Massachusetts stilPliold this idea of the Southern man, “A dirk in one pocke*, a pistol in the other; a cigar in one side of his mouth and a quid of tobacco in the other; indolent and domineering, and intolerant ol any difference of opinion.” Since coming down himself he found that newspapers had not told the troth about the South. He had spent sev eral days in intimate conversation with Gen. "Wade Hampton, and had learned his views of gbe future, and he was now satisfied Wade Hampton was no more of a rebel than him self. He said tbe people of the South must nut expect much from any political party. If Grant is elected it will not be as bad lor the South as many here appear to think. They should remember, above all things, that whether they like it or not they could do uothing. They could not go again to war. Where would they get ammunition el even banners? The policy of the South is peace. The North desires assurances that slavery will not be re-established, neither in in its old form nor yet as a punishment for crime, and there must be perfect freedom of speech; but not until then can there be perfect reconstruction, harmony and reunion. He spoke words of kindness to the negroes, who were present in large numbers, assuring them that it was to their interest to stand by their friends whom they bad known the |longest, and not be carried away by fair promises of carpet-baggers, who onlv want their votes. When the present questions are sett'ed, as they soon must be. the whites would stand by the whites and the negro must go down un leas lie abandons his present course. He was opposed to universal suffrage, but was satified that the people of the South were ready to concede impartial suffrage to the white and black, as is the case in the Radical State of Massachusetts. With the extinction of slav ery, lie said, all cause for bad feelings between the North and South had passed away, and lie hoped that soon Massachusetts and South Carolina would again stand side by side as brothers and friends as they had done in the days of the Revolution. GEORGIA. DEMOCBATIC PBONUNCIAMENTO. Atlanta, Oct. 16.—The Democratic Execu tive Committee of Georgia published the fol lowing to-day: Whereas it has been represented by the Re publican speakers in the present canvass, that the Bouthern people are in lavor of fhe re-es tablishment of slavery in their respective States, and will commence by depriving the blacks of the right of suffrage. For the purpose of meet ing this allegation anil givingit positive denial, be it resolved by the Central Committee ol the Democratic party in Georgia, representing the people of the State, that the charge is une quivocally false; that for evidence that they do not wish to re-establish slavery, and could "not effect it if they would, we refer to the fact that this State has assented to. and ratified tho amendment to the Constitution of the United States, forever abolishing slavery and involun tary servitude, except for crimes whereof the party shall he legally convicted. That we reiterate the position taken by this committee in a late address, and in the report of the committee on the state of the Republic, adopted by the House of Representatives in the legislature of this State on the 2611i utt. That wo also endorse the address of Gen. R. E. Lee and others in response to the letter Irom Gen. Rosecrans. That we acquiesce in the present status of the colored race among us, and will protect that race to the full extent of our power in the exercise of the right of suff rage secured to them by the Constitution of the United Slates, aud amendments thereto, iiud the constitution and laws of this state.

WOMAN. I** FEMALES, owing to the peculiar and important relations which they sustain, their peculiar organiza tion, and the offices they perform, are subject to many sufferings. Freedom from these contribute in no small degree to their happiness an(j we|fare? jor none can be happy who are ill. Not only so, but no one ot these vari us female complaints c m long be suffered to run on without involving the general health ot ibe individual, and are long producing per manent sickness and premature decline. Nor Is it pleasant to consult a physician lor the relict oi these various delicate affections, ami only upon the most urgent necessity will a true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm as to do this. The sex will then thank us lor placing in their hands simpie specifics which will be found efficacious iu rejjeving and cur ing almost every one ot those troublesome complaints peculiar to the sex. S'J HELMB OLD'S Extract Buolm Hundreds suffer on In silence, and hundreds of others apply vainly to druggists and doctors, who ei ther merely tantalize them with the hope ot a cure or apply remedies which make them worse. I would not assert anything that would do iiyustioe to the at flicted, but I am obliged to say that although it may be produced Irom excessive exhaustion of the powers oflile, by laborious employment, unwholesome air and food, profuse menstruation, the use ot tea and coffee, and frequent childbirth, it is tar oftener caus ed by direct irritation, applied the mucous mem brane of the vagina Itself. When reviewing the causes of those distressing complaints, it is most palnihl to contemplate the at atendant evils consequent upon them. It is but sim ple justice to the subject to enumerate a few of the many additional causes which so largely affect the life, health, and happiness of woman in all classes ot society, and which, consequently, affect more or less directly, the welfare ot the entire human lainily. The mania that exists for precocious education and mar riage, causes the years that nature designated for corporeal development to be wasted and perverted in the restraints of dress, the early confinement of school, and especially in the unhealthy excitement of the ball room. Thus, with the body h*lt clothed, and the mind unduly excited by pleasure, perverting in midn’glit revel tho hours des gned by nalurc for sleep and rest, the work of destruction is hall accom plished. In consequence ot this early strain upon her sys tem, unnecessary effort is required by the delicate votary to retain her situation in school at a later day thus aggravating the evil. When one excitement is over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbid ly sensitive to impression, while the now constant restraint of fashionaule dress, absolutely forbidding the exercise indispensable lo the attainment and re tention of organic health and strength; tlie exposure to night air; the sudden change of temperature; the complete prostration produced by excessive dancing, must of necessity, produce their legitimate effect. At least an early marriage caps the climax ot misery, and the unfortunate one, hitherto so utterly regard lees of the plain dictates and remonstrances of her delicate nature, becomes an unwilling subject of medical treatment. This is but a truthful picture of the experience of thousands of our young women'. Long bsfore the ability to exercise the functions of the generative organs, they require an education of their peculiar nervous system, composed of what is called the tissue, which is, in conynon with the fe male breast and lips, evidently under the. control of mental emotions and associations at an early period of life; and as we shall subsequently see, these emo tions, when excessive, lead, long before puberity, to habits which sap the very life ot their victims ere nature has self-completed their development.

July 22, 1868, dtf THE GREAT Pacific Railroad —receiving the aid aud supervision of the Govern ment, and carried forward by the extraordinary re sources aud energy of the powerful Corporations to whom it was entrusted—is capidly approaching com pletion, aud it is safe to say that New York aud Nnn Franci>c« will be conuected by roil by the FOURTH OF JULY NEXT. More than two-thirds ot the Through Line and Branches between the Missouri River aud the Pa cific Ocean are constructed, at aeost ot nearly One Hundred Millions, And the remainder is being pushed forward with unparalleled vigor.

ttolected Story, j Castle of Creifenstein, A GERMAN LEGEND. It was a happy time for the peasantry of Neuberg when tbeir brave Duke, Henry journeyed through his dominions. He was on his way accompanied by his consort Hedwig and their ehildreu, with a numerous retinue ol lollowers, to visit Ills burg of Behrnorg, built by his reuowned father, Duke Bo es laus. While he stopped a day or two to rest flora the fatigues the travel, his subjects from the neigliboniood came to petition fa vors and redress some various grievances, lor they knew the good will of tbe.u sovereign, and thought his power almost boundless. Among the petitioners was an old herds man, whose name was Wolfgang. To the gracious inquiry ofthe Duke respecting his wants he was auswered that the whole coun try was tormented with a condor that took off the greatest part ol the Hocks and even maimed oxen at the plow'. The bird had a nest somewhere, and young ones, and when these were grown, children, perhaps men and wonieu, would not be sale from their iapaci ty. “Take compassion upon us, gracious lord,” prayed the herdsman, “command your sold'ers to slay the condor and destroy its ucst*” "Where has the bird its eyrie?” asked the Duke. “1 know not,” answered the herdsman, but, methinks, it is beneath the Ralilen berg.” The Duke gave immediate orders that t'ue hird of prey should be hunted and killed with its young. The whole country was in mo tion the knights were eager to fulfill their lord’s demand and gain renown by the slaugh ter 01 so destructive a ioe to the herdsmen.— But the condor seemed to dely them. Sheep disappeared daily, as if by magic. Only at intervals coufl the bird tie sien, soaring up on outspread wines at so vasl a height that no arrow couid reac.i it. The peatauts mourn ed and the baffled warriors murmured at tneir want 01 success. neau t.i.t scuauuoiu, the sou of \v olfgang,a ycuih of aspirin, spir it, uu little iu lu.eti, .ij h's lather ol.en coin piai ieJ. to the held man's lanor, Ldd been utioujly watching the knight.", apparently C iarmed wiin me.r or." e apparel and armor and tallowing ai a Uisiaime i.,ose who were, nearest the Dukc.a.ul li.o.tgh iugarb liumhlc many a highborn cavalier might have envied the noble and graceful lorm and tne majestic beauty of bis countenance. Nature bad gilted him with matchless perfection of person; his mien was not that of a peasant but of a free born noble—tor which, indeed, he was noted throughout the country, As the Duke with his train entered the Castle where he was lodged young' Schaflf Liold passed mournfully along tlie mountain side undei the shadow of projecting rocks. He had not gone far when liis steps were arrest ed. At a tew paces distant, a young and beautiful woman richly dressed, lay sleeping upon the ground, her lair cheek rested on her hand, her soft brown hair, unclasped, tal lowed the waving line of her figure.— So exquisite was this image ot beautv thal the young herdsman stood gazing at her sev eral minutes, unable to move his eyes; sud denly, however, he started lorward, as lie saw a viper of the most poisonous kind, glide swiftly over the moss toward the head ot tlie sleeping girl. Schalfho’al sprang forward in time to strike the reptile dead witli his start. The noise awoke the young girl, when seeing the snaxe, she started up with a cry ot hor ror. The next instant, comprehending tlie danger from which she had escaped, she turn ed with a Jook of gratitude to him who had saved her. At the same instant a voice call ed Irom the thicket, “Frincess Rubeta!” 1 am here,” answered the young girl, and Schaffhold at once knew' her rank. She was the eldest daughter of the Duke. With a heavy heart lie turneu away anu was out of sight when the attendants came to the spot. The Princess walked on to the cas tle. and no sooner was it known hat liad be fallen her than the youn^ pages and attend ants hastened to her. But no traces ot the youth who had rendered her this singular service could be discovered. That day before sunset the peasantry were assembling in hol liday attire, decorated with ribbons and flow ers, to appear before the Duke and bis family. All the herdsmen except Schaft'hold were there, and the eyes of the Princess sought only him. When she found him not she sigh ed and tears tilled her beautiful eyes. Sehaffboid wandered in the woods the rest of the evening, and returned home late at night to think and dieam of ubeta. With morning, re olution came. “She cannot be mine,” he said •mournfully, “but 1^may at least win a name that she may not disdain to hear.” He quitted liis father’s hut early, and his steps involuntarily turned towards the castle where the Duke’s party lodged. There was an unusual concourse of people before the gates. A herald came forth mounted on a white horse decorated with trappings, pre ceded by a trumpeter and accompanied by several knights. Sehatfhold approached as near 88 possible. The trumpet sounded, and alter it ceased, the herald made this procla mation in a loud voice: “Our gracious Duke, Henry the Fust, sends greeting to his lieges of the country ol Neu berg, and having heard that the whole valley is plagued with a condor of an unusual and extraordinriy magnitude, by which the lives and property ot his subjects are endangered, lie doth hereby promise to the brave man who shall kill this bird and destroy its nest, the hand ot his daughter, the Princess Ru beta, in marriage.” Bewildering and trembling with newborn life, struggling with tear, the young herds man listened to tl# words of the herald.— When he had ended the trumpet again sounded. The young Princess sat weeping in her chamber. The Duchess, her mother, stood regarding her almost sternly, and reproved her for want of submission to the parental Will. Ah! my mother,” raurmered Kubeta, “must I then wed a man whom 1 cannot love, if be chance to slay the bird “The Duke’s honor is pledged, my child, and the man who shall do this act !u honor ot thee and him, is not? unworthy though he should be the lowly born, of thy hand.” The Princess shook her head and contin ued to weep “Ah!’’exclaimed the Du-hess, “can it be possii-ie that thou Invest already The i’r ncess covered uer blushing face with her hanus. “uis name! demauded the Duchess, “who has dared to as, ire unknown?” "None! non;'." exclaimed liobeta,'he but saved my life. “jia! the young man who hided the snake whilst thou-wast sleeping. “The same.” Why, it was but a hind, a peasant; out on thee, torward girl.” The Princess lifted up her eyes. “Was not Piostus, the founder ot my father’s honored race, a herdsman, too The Duchess frowned, and ordered her daughter to attend her to her apartment. It is needless to say that the Duke’s procla mation caused great excitement amongst the pages and knights of the court. Each was eager to obtain the prize. The country was scoured by huntsmen in every direction, and every cranny ot the rocks was scanned for the eyrie of the condor. “Thou, too, my son” said old Wolfgang “surely thou dost not dream to contend in’ this pursuit which only may be accomplished by a knight,” as he saw his son preparing for the chase; “they will chastise thee as an un start.” “Father, I fear them not, lor the Duke’s proclamation said not whoever of noble blood shall lay the condor. 1 know not if this was meant or inadvertency, but upon this issue I am resolved.” And Scbaflhold went forth with his staff and axe to hunt the bird ol prey. All the morning he wandered in the forest. At noon, wearied, but determined not to yield to fa tijgue, he climbed the ioltiest tree that lie could find, and wliieb commanded a view of the country. The day bad hitherto been beautiful, but Sehatfhold descried a dark spot In the distant horizon, which betokened the coming storm. ouuoemy a oara specie, so distant that it seemed hut a mote dashing over the strain ing eye, caught his attention. His heart bounded within his breast. The speck grew larger he clasped his hands in an ecs.acy of joy. It was th“ condor! Soaring a height im measurable, it still drew Dearer. Scliatfhold hid h’mselt in the foliage of the trees, and watched the flight of the majestic bird. Of the condor, it is said that it will remain tor days upon the wing and never light upon the earth, save lor food Rapidly ft came on, floating calmly in mid-air; l,is eyes followed its flight, which was now directed toward lotty and inaccessible rock on ttie summit of which was an aged tree, which doubtless con tained the nest at tbe condor. Descending from uis elevated situation, lie crossed tbe valley and (breed his passage through the thick and interwoven boughs and wood of the torest. But the storm which had threatened had now begun, hut onward he pressed; he had clambered he mount* n to the loot of the rock, the perilous a eenr nf Which he now commenced enir„«^enV sale guidance to Providence! Grasping8 the shrubs growing on the loot of the rock8 cut ting lootsteps as he slowly advanced, he reached the most dangerous part projected over the abyss, and upon its ver'e stood the lightning-scathed tree. He toup| see the dark form of the bird above him._ Her tiery eyes flashed and she flapped her wings at the intruder. The clamorous impa tience of her young for food, alone stayed her Irom making a swoop at him when half way up the side; and a hitherto unseen elelt in the rock which ascended the sides, led him by a circuitous rout,- to the summit; this per il surmounted, he was now to stiive tor his life with the fierce enemy whoso ,n iim i had inva led. Thecondo/J‘^chedl" the nest, whetiing her beak lor the encouuter her large e es glaring defiance. To ascend the tree would have been destruction and no crossbow, a bolt from which would have stood him much need, had he. A thought struck him to kindle a Are beneatli the tree. With speed he gathered together a lew dried boughs and brushwood; be fastened it to the end °t a long pole which lie had cut down with his axe. Then striking fire he kindled it and placed it as high as he could reach in the branches of the tree. The half decayed boughs were distantly on fire. The violence of the wind swept it on ward, and the nest itself was wrapped in flames. The condor had taken flight at the first gush of smoke, but recalled by the cries of her young, wheeled round and round the blazing tree, uttering a hoarse, short cry at intervals, and flapping her huge wings, as if maddened with rage and despair. Anon she dashed furiously at Scliaffhold, who nothing daunted struck at her with his axe. the only weapon ot defense. The bird wheeled round him and then plunged madly into the flames to the rescue of its young. Long and limit less were its efforts; it mingled its horrid shrieks in the blast ot the stoim till the coun try around was aroused; but all in vain were its struggles, the fire bad so weakened it that, overcome, the huge creature fell at lull length, exhausted, at the leet of the ymith, who. with one mighty stroke of his axe, sev ered the head from the hotly of the pros trate enemy, which should now no longer be the terror of the husbandmen, and which, if the Duke were but right y minded toward the honest and deserving, should lead lum to his fortune. Dragging the carcass of his prostrate loti to the edge of the precipice, he precipitated it over the side, and at length managed to make a sale descent with it into the valley. Here, to his surprise, the whole population, as well as stately lollowers of the court, were assembled, attracted by the fire and the wailing cries of the condor, and had been the witnesses of his prowess. The Duke listened to his accouut of his adventure, and demanded his name. “hhaffliold, the son of Wollffang, the herd man,” was the reply: and the youth saw with pain the smile that passed round the noble circle. But the Duke exclaimed after a moment’s hesitation. ‘•Bring lortli my daughter!” Several ot tbs knights ventured to remon strate. But the Duke once more hade them do his bidding. There was a pause, and presently Rubeta appeared, leaning on her mother's arm, pale and trembling. Again there was a murmur, but the Duke exclaimed; “I pledged my royal word that whoever should slay the condor should receive my daughter’s hand; it is true, I did not think that one so lowly born would attempt, or if attempt,succeed agaiust such noble knights: but, as success has attended his efforts, he has shown hinisef more worthy than you all and I will not break my word. Young man take my daughter; thou art comely as thou art brave, and let no knight here murmur at my roval light to do justice to desert.” Schatl'liold advanced to the Duke and kneeling down, exclaimed: “I would risk life a thousand times for so fair a prize, but I will not take the hand that the lady doth not willingly bestow.” “Now, by the rood, thy spirit is kuigbtly enough,” exclaimed Duke Henry, “but. it is our will ttiat thou dost wed the lady. Ru berta, what sayest thou “I will obey thee, my father,” said the said the maiden, from whose cheek the flush of |oy had chased away its paleness. The Duke joined their hands. “And thnt thou mayst have a home stately enougli tor a bride,’’lie continued,“1 will give thee as much land as thou caust encircle in one day’s jour ney. On the rock thou didst climb—the condor’s eyrie—I will build a stately castle tor thee and thine, which shall be called Urielenstein, in remembrance ef the bird which brought tbee fortune.” The same day was the bridal of the prin cess and herdsman solemnly celebrated.

There is a man whose hand does not tremble, but handies a brush with dexterity, and lays on the PAINT that neve leaves color or stain. He paints girls, boys, men and wo men, by t e hundreds, every day and evening. He removes pain as if by magic, of any name or nature, whether chronic or acute, from a simple mosquito bite to the most frightful cancer. Broken down, trembling patients are sent by the officers ot hospi tals to WOLCOTT’S Office, No. 170 Chatham square. N. Y., an 1 all pain is removed tor every application, free of expense, without money or price, lor the ten ant ot the sunken cellars of the meanest tenement house, or tor the owners ot brown stone and marble pa'aces of Filth Avenue. All, all are treated alike, and each wait their turn for an application ot that wonderful remedy, PAIN PAINT, and all distress, pain, and misery, vanishes instantly, as it command ed by a supernatural agent The scepter of the king dom of pain is broken under the touch of the brush, and crumbles like a spider’s web, where before it held its victim^with an iron grasp lor scores of >ears. Hundreds of physicians have witnessed the opera tions with astonishment, and those who expected to scoff and laugh returned to pray. A tactory in Brooklyn and the office in New York is driven to its utmost capacity day and night. The Doctor’s friends urge him to double the price at once; but the Doctor with an emphatic No, settles the matter. The peo ple shall have it, and every body else, tor 25 cents, 60 cents. $1, $3, $5, and $8 per bottle, and cun select what size they please. Those who are able certainly will purchase the largest sizes, tor they contain six teen ot the dollar bottles, and hold enough to drive pain headlong, instead of a small bottle that removes pain only by inches. Dr. WOLCOTT is a man of business. He has been in the same office nearly six years, and folks know just where to find him. He has no time to visit race courses or base ball matches—hardly time to snatch a lunch.—People of common sense know that he means just what he says. He has too much honor to make a single lalse statement. It is needless tor us to state the success he has al ready achieved in the sale of his old standard reme dy, the ANNIHILaTGK, universally patronized lor catarrh and colds in the head, which is to-day the only leading and reliable remedy tor that loathsome yet universal complaint. Still more, he now puts up the ANNIdlLATOR in pints, instead of hat/ pints, and makes it one-quarter stronger and more efficient. He has cured, by th*» use ot this valuable medicine, not only thousands of almost hopeless cases of catarrh, but hundreds of weak nerves. Many a man whose hands trembled to sueh a degree that* it was impossible to read a newspaper without laying it on a desk, and who could scarcely write their names once a week, find immediate benefit. Pint bottles hold three ot the 50 cent bottles, and he**sells fttty pint lottles to one of the smaller size. Thou sands suffer who would be wholly restored from that disgusting disease, CATARRh, which leads di rectly to lung complaints, dyspepsia, weak nerves, Bliu in the side and stomach, and liver complaint. octors in general do not understand Catarrh and few are bold enough to deny it. Noihing ever taken into the stomach can cure it, for the disease is in the head. You might as well put a plaster on the foot to cure an ulcer on the hand.—Catarrh is an ulcera tion in the head and a running sore; the matter tails in the throat and clogs it; at night runs down lo the stomach and undermines the whole constitution. Catarrh snuff'wid always produce catarrh and ag gravate the disease. A sneeze is nature’s most em {>hafic No, and dust ot any kind is most positively niurious. You must cure the festering nicer in the head and the difficulty in tha throat and stomaoh, fiom this loan of phlegm constantly pouring from the head, is removed. It must be cleaned out, instead of aduing snuff and more filth. Buy none ol the Doctors’ remedies unless in pure white wrappers.

The unfortunate should be particular in selecting his physician, as it is a lamentable yet incontroverti ble fact, that many syphilitic patients are made mis erable with ruined constitutions by maltreatment from inexperienced physicians in general practice; for |t is a point generally conceded by the best syphilogn dhers, that the study and management of these come dlaints should engross the whole time of those who would be competent and successful in their treat ment and cure. The inexperienced general practi tioner, having neither opportunity nor time to mak himself acquainted with their pathology, commonly pursues one system of treatment, in most cases mak ing an indiscriminate use of that antiquated and dan gerous weapon, the Mercury.
