The Maine Republican State...Convention, «t Portland, last Thursday, rcnomiiiated Gov. Sidney Perliam with much enthusiasm and . unanimity. The Coilegc commencements are now oc curring throughout tho length and bredtli of the Union. We pay $18,000,000 annually for tho priv ilege of wearing boots and shoes, of which the paternal government takes $3,500,000. A large gang of operators in counterfeit fractional currency has just been broken up in •Northern Ohio. There has been a great review of ths French Army, 100,000 good fighting men having been organized into tho Army of tho .Republic. The American Pence Society will celebrate . at an early day the ratification of the “ W ask- Ington Treaty.” In tho French Assembly, Wednesday, a week ago, it was stated that iu less thau six hours the agents of the Treasury had collect ed 4,500,000,000 francs for the new loan. Tho Suez Canal is said to be filling with sand. The Khedive refuses to buy it from the company, as recommended by the Sub lime Porte. The Democ’rats in Iowa who are opposed to the “new departure” programme, intend to call another convention under the lead of Henry Clay Dean. The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad Company sold 120,000 tons of Scran ton coal, laBt week at auction. Stove coal went at $5.24. Not coal at $4.35. A comparitivo statement from the Internal Revenue Bureau shows the decrease in the collections for the year ending June 30,1871, as compared with the previous year, to be over $40, 000, 000, and estimates the collection for 1872 at $112,192,201. Mr. Odo Russell lias been appointed British Minister to Berlin, to take the place of Lord Loftus, recalled. He represented Great Britian at the German headquarters at Versailles during the late war. Rov. Eliphalet Nott Potter, D. D., who has just been elected President of Union Col lege, is the son of Bishop Potter of Pennsylva nia, and the youngest of six distinguished brothers. Au amnesty for political and military of fenses has been granted by the Emperor of Germany to natives of Alsace and Lorraine. Terrible riots have occurred among the miners in Silesia. The Uhlans cleared the streets, killing seven of the miners, wounding thirty nnd arresting sixty. The Council of Political Reform is an or ganization ■ which already comprises among its members a large number of the most in- teligcnt citizens and heaviest tax-payers in the various Wards of New York City. It is, moreover, making rapid advances both iu numbers and influence. Mrs. Lydia D. Sherman, is now under ar rest at Derby, Conn., charged with having murdered, by poision, no less than eleven persons, three of them being her husbands, six her own children, and two her step-chil- dren. Circumstantial evidence against her is very strong. The story of her supposed crimes reads like a page out of the history of the Marchioness of Brinvillicra., Certainly no female in this country has ever before been charged with such a frightful catalogue of :asBas'maVions. Tho representatives of Germany, Sweden, Turkey’ Holland, Russia, Spain, and the Uni ted States, to the Italian Court, have arrived in Rome. King Victor Emmaui 1 reached that: city, and was enthusiastically received by the citizens. THK LONG f ilS L a f e FARMER—THURSDAY [-JULY* 6, . u . . . ; m e 1871. Thy RSult.of the eleciiona in Franco is fit* vorable to the present Administration., . r TkfcrMiflcations of the Treaty .qf'.Wqsliing. ton, which was signed here by the'United States and British Commissioners on the 8th of May last, were exchanged at London on the 17tk ult., the anniversary of the Battle of Bunker Hill. Tuc treaty, -was proclaimed Tuesday, the anniversary of American inde pendence. From the returns in possession ofihe Depart ment of Agriculture, it is ascertained that the acreage of wheat iu the United States as Com pared with last year, has iucyeaeed abaut four per cent., or nearly three-quarters of a million acres, -most, of which, however, is'west of the Mississippi. Most of the‘EasternrStatea show a falling off in the condition of the crop, which in Massachusetts is fourteen per cent, below the average. The yield is stated to be good in all the principal wheat growing States, and, unless disaster should occur, the crop will doubtless be fully up to that of last year. The C'oreans have been punished by Com modore Rodgers and his marines, who landed on the ,10th instant at Kiang-Ko, destroyed or captured five forts,- took nearly five hundred guns, and killed about five hundred men. The offense for which this severe chastise ment was inflicted seems to haye been mainly an unwillingness to associate with outsiders. The Corcuns, like the Chinese, inclined to the non-intercciurse policy. As the. Corenns are feeble and semi-barbarous, the victory is a barren one. When we consider that the losses on our side did not amount to a corpor als guaTd, the affair appears like a, slaughter. Our pet Indian, the high-soulcd and truth ful Red Cloud, has shared tbe fate of the Or iental potentate who was voted mad hy his subject for sayifig that he had been to a coun try where water became solid. Red Cloud has recounted the marvels of the white man’s civillization, and his people say that bad med icine has been put over Red Cloud’s eyes, for these things cannot be. So the sceptre has departed from the great chief, and Little Bull, who is feared of all the Indians, and has de clared undying war agaiDst the whites, reigns in his stead. Our readers will.be shocked to learn, of the murder of the well kQown “ Pet” Halsted ihy a jealous rival in Newark, N. J. A former patron of a woman, with who Halstead has been living recently, a charcoal merchant named Bolts, maddened with drink and jeal ousy, broke into the house early Sunday morning, and after a slight scuffle with his victim, who had just arisen from bed, shot him, causing death iu fifteen minutes. The murderer, after the commission of the deed, walked away, but upon being pursued by a policeman gave himself up. He freely con fessed the murder; said that he had preme ditated it, and was willing to be hanged for it. His connection with the Lincoln adminis tration and Senator Sprague, and with numer ous political movements during the past ten years, made his name fumiliiar to the whole country. The citizens of Frankfort, 111., are at pres ent considerably exercised over what they conceive to be a genuine case of witchcraft. The victims arc two young ladies, daughters of a Mr. James Williams. They are said to be modest and retiring in their manners dur ing the day, but when night approaches, some unseen power influences them to climb to the roof, where, in the words of the local chroni cler, they “gyrate on the comb with perfect ease and impunity, uttering at the same time the most hideous and frenzied screams.” We are told, further, that while performing in this manner, they frequently become rigid with spasms, and, on recovering, devour flies until they are simultaneously seized with nausea. When the spells come on they both run toward the residence o f au old Indy, hy whom they claim to have been bewitched, and who, if they are to be believed, takes an ac tive part in their house-top amusements. Hundreds of persons have witnessed these strange freaks, among the rest two physicians, but the mystery seems to have, so far, proved impenetrable. Hui-ens Couixty—Jolm A. King. The note of preparation for the fall cam paign is beihg sounded from all quarters, and the available candidates for the pfflces to' be filled are being canvassed by the leaders Of the several parties. Richmond county again presents claims for the Senatorial nomination in the person of Hon. Gilbert C. Dean. ‘ We opine tbat it is time Qneens county should ask for her turn. Year after year the claims of Richmond county have been submitted and quietly allowed. vThey have provided us candidates, Simonson and Dean, for Senator- shlp, Norvell for Congress, and Hawkins for. Internal ReVontte Collector. We believe She has had her full share. We now insist Upon the claims of Queens county and present as a suitable candidate for the Senatorial nomina tion John A King, Esq., a gentleman of sound Republican prdclivlties, a worthy son of one of the founders of the paTty, and one whose superior judgment, purity of character and executive abilities efninently qualify idtn for the positions; With-such a name for out standard bearer wc cannat but have the most Sanguine hopes of success. We call upon (he Republicans to 3ee to it that the delegates to their convention be instructed to insist Upon the rights of Queens county and also that Jphn A. King be the nominee.1 T M E ( > Ep alVH.lH.il —r - 1W1- — A con’fenfion was held last Thursday at Binghainjbn, under the presidency of Non. Mr. ScriMcr, of Westchester copiity, with the avowed pfrpose of promoting the, efficiency of the Republican Parly in this- .State, -.The public prijppedings i^chidp^,resolutions to this effect,. lojXfher.witli one very cordially indors ingGen,iJrant’sAdministratioii. The con- vetaion-recited frorapn; association formed among soipfa .earnest Republican' members of the last L^MatUre, who'believed that much might be dWne hy concerted • action to place the interest* of the party above the iuterests of individuals and factious in it. White pro posiug uo definite measures, Hie Convention may be expected to strengthen and' extend this purpose among its members. Gen. John Logan recently said that tile Hon. Conkling would run his pnteul leather boots off to kick down Hon. Fenton in case the lat er was up for office, That in a measure states the cose. - Itfaone of .tl^p misfortunes likely to befall any party, that some leading men iu it will quarrel.' Now these leaders having quarrelled, will sound their gongs and divide and disorder and demoralize everything for the purpose of avenging themselves. They imagine that their personal cause is the cause of tbe whole party. Fenton and Greeley and Conkling are useful men; have been efficient politicians, but they have done no more for the Republican party than it has for them. If they must fight let them fight, but the party has no desire;for a part ill the matter. We hail with pleasure the movement among the young men of the party. “Let us have peace.” If the old soldiers wont pacify overboard with them and their personal fangles. * We append the resolutions of the Binghamp- ton convention: Whereas, The result of the general elections for the last three years has shown that tho Republican Party organization in this State, through unfortuuate divisions in its own ranks, has lost much of its effective strength; and, Whereas, We beiieve that those holding the Republican faith constitute a majority of the legal voters of this State ; that the success of the Republican Party is essential to a wise, pure and economical administration of public affairs, anr that success cun only be gained by harmonious councils and united action ; therefore, Resolved, That we bold it'to be the duty of all true Republicans to seek the advance ment of Republican principles, rather than the promotion of the interests of individual men. Resolved, That tho exigencies of our poli tical position demand tbat each Republican shall give close attention to 'the primary meetings for the selection of representatives to | conventions, and for the nomination of candidates. Resolved. That we propose to give our earnest, hearty support to the- candidates nominated for office by the Republican Party iu each locality and throughout the State. Resolved, That in these times of political, intrigue chicanery and corruption, it is the duty of every good'citizen and true patriot to do all .that ,W hi|U lies toward restoring .the wisdom, the,-p,urity and integrity which one charicterizcd the administration of the affairs of the State and toward defending, our insti tutions ithperiled as they are by the covert at- tacts of insidious toes. , . • , - Resolvedf'ShtA vie pi-' nose toformno new party and to take now “new departure,;” but to consolidate aud strengthen the organization made glorious by the achievements of the past, and we cordialjly welcome all those in our ranks who place first and paramount among poliical Considerations tbe advancement of Republican principle's and the success of the Republican Party. ’ Resolved, That the present National Ad- raiuistrqtion, by the restoration of all the States to their proper sphere in tbe Goverment of the Union, by the reestablishment of the national credit, by the steady reduction of the national debt, by the rapid decrease of taxation, by tbe numerous discharge of superfluous office holders, and employees of all departments, by the reduction of the army, and by the settle ment of grave international questions, evinces itself a cautious, prudent economical, and able administration, deserving the commendation and support of all good citizens, and of all honest nienr The “New Departure.” M e . EbrtQB.—Will you please inform a bothered body what Ml the talk about “new departure means? What is it ? Is any body going anywhere, and if so, where? ■ Well, in 'navigation a new departure means the pointing'of the prow of the vessel one or more points .fo the right or left ef the course It has been pursuing. In law .according to Bouvier it means “the desertion by a party of the grounds before taken, and the adoption of another.\ ’The “new departure” of tbe dem ocratic party means the giving Up of its war against tbe Union, against freedom, against impartial suffrage and now that the Republi can party has beaten it on the field of battle and at the ballot box, to accept the situation. The new departure is the Democratic pavty going too late mass and confession, It is the candid admission on its part that it was wroug. It is a grand indorsement of the Republican party, its legislation and policy. In theneW departure the Democratic party conies like the prodigal tired of having fed upon husks (out of office) and asks that it may be aided to be come respectable agaiu. With Salmon F. Chase wo feel inclined to say “amen.” We cannot give tbe prodigal a new .ring. We have noop, nnd rings have dope much toward his defilement. -We can kill a fatted calf, but we cannot let’ the rule of the house' go out of the hand- Of the elder (Repnblicah) now, until the prodigal (democracy) haa spent a proba tion of at-least six years; just another term for Grant and twelve times as. long as. foe Methodist church takes to bleach out ordinary sinners. \Btittho Democracy is.tiot ordinary hut extraordinary lit its iniquity. * i 4 * - .

' , ' ' “We mentioned last week, upon the autho rity of District Attorney Downing, that Judge Armstrong had issued an order for the arrest of -Horace W. Love. The -Jamaica Dem ocrat, say, Judge Armstrong did not issne any such warrant. We have nothing more to say.” ■ And so the Flushing Times says you are another. “Some of our exchanges have already com menced writing up the political slates for’ tbe Fail campaign. We think it rather soon to agitate the subject. The people will attend to this busines when the proper time arrives; at present they don’t feel much interested in -what is written in the interest of. political as pirants. AH that is said, .at this early day, to influence ihe people in favor ofthe friends and relatives of tho writers of these buncombe articles, is entirely thrown away. Wait a lit tle longer .”—Flushing Times. . We cannot agree. The people will riot at tend to jhis, They never do attend to spch things. The politicaiis write up the slate and as a prelimiuany they have to go through a certain amount of skirmishing, It makes good reading, and people pay for it. The people have an inkling of what they ni4y expect from a protracted reign of De mocracy in the State in tbe fact that bonds to the amount of forty million are to be issued by the authorities of the metropolis the pres ent summer, The Democracy are experts in squandering the people’s money,- running in debt and imposing burtliensome taxation. The first Slate election will be in Kentucky. Last year the Democracy had 31,000 majority. This year the organs of the party call earnest ly upon the rank and file to save the State from the hands of Republicans. This cry of apprehension is ominous. For the first time the negroes vote. A revival of the old system of -stump con troversy is being exhibited in Kentucky, Mes srs. Harlan aud Leslie, the Republican and Democratic candidates for the Governorship, have publicly,engaged in .a long, discussion of party politics, Tiie audiences are reported to have been very large, and' the interest lively. The Treaty F ully Ratifleti* It was announcec} on Frjriay that the ratifica- tions of the Alabama Treaty were exdhanged on the 17th mst. The British Government acted with a promptitude corresponding to our pwn. Its foil'assent was ensured before our own action, aiid the'exchange .of, rati fications was but a formal act. .The Ca nadians may posibly ..regard this intelligence as another- .rebuff from Englaud..- They have yet taken no action. While they are still engaged discussing what they, will do, the Home Govermedt promptly ratifies with out any reference to them. However, we,sup pose toey are still at liberty to pass upon the portion of the Treaty which relates to Fisher ies, though nothing they may do can effect the rest. The organization of the hoard of Arbitra tion which meet3 at Geneve, will naturally follow at an early day. The President names one member, the Queen one and the heads of the goverments of Brazil, Italy and Switzer land each one. The name of Charles Francis Adams has been mentioned as likely to be our representative, and he is said to be the ckpice of Secretary Fish. No belter man could be selcted. The dnty is exceedingly delicate and important, and he is admirably qualified for it. -—Albany Journal. ’rue Sljn. Perhaps no part of the human: body is sub ject to a greater variety of diseases and dis1- figurements than is its exterior covering, the skin. Some of these diseases are organic to the Skin itself; while others are only symp toms of a more deeply seated trouble. Now, though,it might seem, as it would no doubt be, preposterous to attack a disease seated iu the stomach or liver by an application to the epi dermis, yet there does not seem anything irfa- tional in basing on the skin your treatment of a disease located in the skiu. This wo3 the view taken by that benefactor to mankind, Mr A. . Constantine, of 43 Ann Street, when he undertook to furnish an article for every lady and gentieman’s toilet which, while it was agreeably aromatic, should so operate on the skin as to leave it beautifully white and soft, and perfectly healthy, Hi's Persian Healing Fine Tar Soap is the result Of his long labors toward that end. After a contin uous use of over two years of this pure and agreeable preparation, we can say—and could if we were dying—that we believe the gcod old man could have made no more precious a gift to his species by any other direction «f the same amount of effort. He has eman cipated men and woman and children forever from the necessity of rough, pimpled, chapped or blotched skins; he has insured the human cuticle from these humofs which so frequent ly disfigure and finally destroy that fine or ganization. The druggists sell more of Con stantine’s soap than of ail other medicated kinds put together —for this Simple reason, that they can truthfully and sincerely guar antee the Persian Healing Soap from actual kpp.wlcgge,.a thing thdy cannot do with nine- tenthti-^f the trashy,compounds passing under the name of medicated soap.

An arioSmt Divine, fffil'as Wllt^as reverent defined the old fashioned iron-clad doctrine f el&flon thus likp ; : ‘ .' 0 “You a n nnd yon can’t, £ou will and you won't. You ohall and you atmu’t And you’ll bo datoriad if you'don’t.” Our Democratic friends are ia awful bond and bitterness on‘the election question, fher is not & prominent Democrat in Queens coun. ty that will put himself square on the record to say for or against the new departure. Yet the leaders feel that they must , “Door dl*.’’ The question is asked elsewhere, “i8 any body goiDg anywhere and where ?” Matters now look as if the Democratic party were go. ing—to pieces. The “new departure” is an ef. tort after the manner of a flying leap or dou- ble summersault, to vault into the ascendency. It is bold enough in its conception, but »re is not vitality enough in the told carets t0 perform the feat. Then the party has so many encumbrances in the way of ignorance and prejudice in its rank and file. Its is like the dog with the tin kettle tied to its tail. Imagine an animal of that kind so appendagej attempting to jump across Niagara river above the falls. Imagine its bead suddenly cut off when in the suspense of the jump. W'bat a picturer Yet it is the counterpart of the Dem ocratic situation. Tammany wants new departure. The World and Round Table, indorse. Says the former of it: “Adapt our utterance to the bigotry, the ignorance, and the narrow preju. dice of men who have voted with the Repub lican party hitherto.” We call attention to the following conflict ing opinions: Tho Democrats of Chester county, Pa., are rampant against tho Ohio Platform. In their opinion, “negro equality” is “rank, and smells to heaven.” They have published an address denouncing all efforts to divert them from a strictly “ white man’s party.” Tbe Westchester (Pa.) Jeffersonian ! mamls a convention to “expunge\ the offensive plat form. The Richmond Wing concurs in (he sugges tion that the Southern States should hold en tirely aloof from the next DemocratlcNation- at Convention. The argument is simple. Such an abnegation of Southern influence would—so it is said—relieve the Northern section of the party from all embarrassment. It would serve to release it from the odium attaching to Southern control and dictation. It would remove the grounds of difference among the Southern people themselves, or at least preclude their obtrustion and expressien. Iu a word, it would put the responsibility upon the Northern clement, and leave tlm South free to make its own choice and act at its own pleasure. Seventeen Democratic journals in Ohio re fuse to take the new departure pointed out to them by the late Democratic Convention. Asa Packer, of Pennsylvania, unquestiona ble Democratic authority, thinks the “new de parture”. is a palpable fraud, aud that “disaf fected Republicans” will hardly be caught by it. ' ' Tiie Louisville Journal graciously consents that Mr. DaVis shall speak and Mr, Toombs shall gabble if they choose; hut it resists “tbe attempt to make the Democratic parly res ponsible for thbir 'utterances: ” It Is hinted that a shrewd and diplomatic Tammany policeman has gone South with the delicate mission of persuading Jeff.
