Tho first la composed of strotip and
licnity Union men, in favor of Histulnliif'
the Government rucrtM'tienlly nnd putting
down the rebellion "Vi fighting. As to
private clmrnelerund 'pergonal popularity,
jyn rarely pec ho good n ticket in these
titnrs, taking it as n whole.
Tho oilier ticket i composed of men
who sity they nrc the best mill strongest of
Union men ; lint their clnol anxiety np
tienri to be nliniit the " rltjlitn. of tho elti
y.eii.i," nnd Ihc subversion of our form of
Government, not by tin rebellion, but by
tlio Administration. They think (or ut
leimt pay) that tho wnv to end the rebellion
N to stop (hihllnt; nnd make compromise.
Home ol them nro privately irood men, nnd
of sonm I know little or nothing.
The bull is now fairly open. ' The vote
will be more nenrly divided here thnn in
itKMt onuntir of tho Stall. Yut will re
rolled that Hrrckiuridjrc in 18(50. nnd Mo
Council in 1 802. curried this county by
decisive majorities, over nil opposite: can
lid.ites. IJut the best judges nirrto in llu;
opinion that the Union pnrly will carry it
ihis year, by not a largo but a decitiive
majority.
The Altn Company hnv& sent down 100
ton of oro by the hut two trips of the
Vannma. They now havo their arrange
iiti'tiN so perfect that they can make bar
rels nnd prct oro hauled in ut the rate of
over 100 tons per month. I hey can pot It
Hit us fad its they can lind menus to pet it
nway. They have uliout 400 tons already
out. at the mine.
Since the steamer left n qunrtcr-fnterPfit
of one sham in this mine lias been sold for
Sfi.rtOO rush ; nnd the purchaser win inline,
iliali offered nnd refused Sfi.000 for it.
The Union claim has at last opened n good
payini: vein, and will doubtless soon be
dapping ore. Several new lodes have
been rrciitiy discovered, highly prntnisiiif,'

Fr..m tlm Detroit "Krco IVum,' of .limn S1J.
A very o.uitiuc us well as novel ullalr
occurred about six miles down the river, on
Monday afternoon, belli no les than a ver
itable chase of a hippopotamus. It seems
that In the. transit ot tlm circus, now per-
torinlnu here, from liitnuio to tins city, ll
becuinu in c"sary, on uceount of their ex
cossivo weljjht.'to send tho elephants and
tlio hippopotamus on a propeller, and they
worn aecordinuly shipped on board tho s.
li. Hnlihvi'll. On Mnndav afternoon, us the
steamer was nomine this port, a fcouo of
Viva l excitement occurred, which nearly re-
lilted In tlio escapo of the lingo b"hemoth,
or hippopotamus, belonging to G. C. Quick,
and ut present forming one of tho attrac
tions of G. F. Uailey's (uudrtiple clrcu.
The hugo beast was shipped from itutfalo
on board the steamer 8. 1). Caldwell, and as
it was Impossible to got his immense capo
on board, that was sent by land, while his
Kolu-muthsulp, nccompaiiied by All, tho
Egyptian, his captor and keeper, proceeded
by water to Detroit. During tho voyngo
it was noticed that tho animal continually
looked longingly toward tlio water, as
tttougli ho would havo given ono of his cyo
teeth (no trill by the way) for a plnngo
into tho depths of tho lake, and a ramble
nbont lUi unexpired bottom. No ono sup
pirsed. however, that ho would yield to his
umphibiou8 tastes, und, eo uo extra watch
was et upon him.
As tho steamer neared tho city, and when
three miles Mow the Fort, and as All and
everybody ulso were gazing landward, a
crash and then a splash wero heard from
tho sIUo or tho bow towards tho American
rtiore. Everybody trashed to tho rpot. The
jilaco on tho bow where tho hlppota
'nua had been confined was empty. Tho
truth became instantly apparent. The
boast, ttnablo to resist tho temptation, had
burst his bonds and plunged into the river,
resolved on an ecnitatio excursion. The
owner, who was on board, looked tho pic
tuio of despair. $l0.00(j, to s'y nothing
of a' lurgo amount of prospective profits,
had suddenly vamosed. As for All, the
Egyptian keeper, ho was nearly frantic
lie tore his hair and prayed to his strange
gods. In a few moments, however, the
monstrous head of tho huge beast appeared
above tho surfaco of tho water. A general
bout aroso, and All was with difficulty pre
vented from jumping overboard In pursuit
'I' his companion aud beloved pot, while a
lxat was lowered, into which he jumped
and rowed toward tho beast, who swam about
iu nn testacy of delight.
As tho Egyptian commenced calling him
by familliar names, and at tho sound of his
voice the monster 'stopped, looked around.
and seemed to wait for tho bout to near htm
but just as it approached in reaching db
tnncu tho hippntiiinus gave a plunge, and
onco more dissnppeared, leaving a whirl
pool of seething water to mark the spot
where ho had gone down. Nothing wus
seen of him now for a long time, nnd they
wero about giving htm up for lost, when lie
suddenly made his nppoaranco about 11)11
yards olf. but nearer the shore than at first.
All again rowid toward him. calling to him
as before, but again tho beat dodged him.
and dived to the bottom of tho river. All
now made a large circuit with hta boat, in
hopes of taking him by surprise a he camo
up to breathe, but as it nwuro of his inten
tions, the hippopotamus rose n long dis
tance oil, aud looked ut his master cunning
ly, and with an expression which seemed to
say. No you don't." For a third time All
started in pursuit, with a result similar to
that which had attended his other efi'urts to
capture his pet.
When ho went down the third ttmo, Alt
paused, evidently completely nonplussed,
and seemingly overcome by grief and des
pair. In a second, however, ho seized tho
oars nnd rowed towards the steamer. "Try
do tog," ho shouted, as ho camo alongside;
gib inu lu tog I" A largo black mastiff,
which had been trained to sleep In the cage
of the hippopotamus, and for whom ho had
for a long time evinced much atl'ectlou, had
been keeping up a continued howling from
tho time his companion had escaped, was
now loosened, nnd ho Instantly plunged in
to tho river nnd swam after All as ho
moved oil'. In about a minute the hippo
potamus stuck his head out of water, and
on seeing him the dog gave a wild bark und
swam In his direction very rapidly. All
acompauylug iu the boat. At last tho
dog reached the monitor, aud with a series
of barks, commenced swimming round tho
animal, and finally struck out for tlio shore,
the hippopotamus following.
Tho Interest excited by this scene wns
Intense, which continued to increase until
tho dog and hippopotamus reached the
American shore. All was not long alter,
and tho niiimui was no sooner on termjlnna
than the Egypt inn. armed wPh a siunll raw
hide, which ho had taken with him, jumped
on the bench, nnd going up to the animal,
spoke a few words in tlio Egyptian longitv.
gave him a few smart raps over his ponder
ono rump with the rawhide, and drove lipn
without further dilllculty to a place of safe
ty, wheni ho was onco more secured, nnd
tlm proper moans adopted to havu him
brought to this city, where ho now Is, In
fine condition, after his frolic beneath tho
waves.
TlIKItt IIot'K is. i.v Dkmm'imgy. A
Vieksburg letter of Juno U.'ld, says:
" Tho prisoners tell various stories about
tho strength ol tho city und the amount or
supplies, but uclcuowledgo tli.it they nro
living on half rations, and many of them
hud tint been out of tho rilU pits for ten
days their rations being carried to them
in the nilit and of course can not speak
very uutheiiticully even were they disponed
to do so. 1 spoke with one of them who
was formerly u merchant in some interior
town in Georgia. I asked hi in if lie earn
estly expected the South to maintain her
position and conquer a recognition ? 'No,'
replied he, I do not ; but wo will prolong
tlm war till after the next Presidential
election, which will result in the triumph
of the pro-slavery party of tlio North, anil
then a recognition of our rights will speed
ily follow.' I tried to convince him that
there wus no 'pro slavery parly In tho
North the men who would luvor a re
cognition formed n small class, not worthy
the iiiiuio of a political party. Eut ho
wloud not believe it. He lirmlv believed
that iu tho ' pro slavery party in the North'
the smith would tlud ner deliverer that
tho North was hopelessly divided that
our soldiery wero dissatisfied with tho con
duct of tho wur, and till that was necessa
ry was to prolong the struggle until their
friends iu the JSorth could comu into pow
er. And he represented, us he said, the
views or tho entire botitii. Utir uoppcr
heads can now see how much their ' frcc
dom of speech and independence of t'e
press' lias aided rebellion how many
precious lives they nro responsible lor
now many months nf bloody wur will
rest upon their licmls."

An old lawyer wus giving advice to his
son, who was just entering upon the practice
of ins father s profession : " My son," suid
tho counselor, " if you havo a case where
the law is clearly on your side, but justice
seems to be against you, urge upon thejury
the vast iinportutico of sustaining the law.
ll. on the other hand, you uro in doubt
about tho luw but your client's case is
founded iii justice, insist on the necessity of
uuiug jusiiee, iiinugu mo neuvens mil."
IJut, uskeu the son, " how shall I man
age n case where both law und justice are
dead against me?'' ' In that ease, my son,
talk roiiud It, tutu round it."
Wombs im Giiu.h. Women ought to be
of more importance to society thun girls ;
but who does not know thut the case is ex
actly tlio reverse? How many women do
wo know who shrink from society, give
their whole timo to fumily duties, bury
themselves up ut home, und seem to bo of
no other use in the world than to dress their
girls for parties and keep the house in or
der lor their beaux ; Ul course children
grow up with the idea that mother is of
no consequence, and don't know the world.
They an ubrond for their oninious. and
spurn all homo influences.
The following explanation appeared in a
Philadelphia paper of the (Ith ultimo : " In
conseoucucc of tho prize liirlit in .Maryland.
there was no meeting ut tho Democratic
club' rooni'lust night."
