It was. abou, ten inches long, and oue or one and a halt inches equate, and was evidently the work of skillful hands.

Now the question is, when.was this pin made, and who made it. It had undoubtedly been where it was found embedded for hundreds of "7 Therb is at present an unusual feature in th3 corn trade of Ireland, viz a very large export of oats to France. Sixteen vessels which, have lately left Cork for French ports carried 25,077 barrels of oats, thirteen vessels from Waterford, 16.438 barrels; and three from Dublin, 2,507 barrels making a total of 44,040 barrels. There is at present shipping about as much more, and as the demand from France still continues, it is supposed that the quantity exported to that country will not be completed under 100,000 barrels. The oats are all blac oats.

Mr. Wtnans, the eminent American contractor at St. Petersburg, has proposed to buy the Moscow Railway, so long In the market, and recently offered to the Busso-French.

Railway Company by the Government. He is willing to pay 25,600,000 roubles within a year, besides undertaking to amortise a former loan. "A some ot his London partners are likely to object to the" transaction, Count Stryngonoflf has left for England to smooth- matters, IS he can, on behalf of the Gorernmeitb Radical Threats to Subvert the Government. The Boston Anti-Slavery Standard, Wm. Lloyd Garrison's paper, discusses tne late elections and charges the defeat of its party to the lukewarmness of "conscienceless, place-bunting white Republicans," and to the failure of the party In Congress to do its duty by the African race.

How thatduty should have been per.ormed, the Standard leaves to be inferred by the eonrae it urees Congress now to pursue. It uAn important question now Is will (Jon-gress be wise enough, on reassembling, to rise anove party considerations, ana nromntlv seize its remaining opportunity to repair the injury occasioned by its past omissions? A wise statesmanship in Con- srress may still save us from serious tronnies wnicn omerwise win oe mevim ble. The limited and conditional grant of political rights already extended to the negroes oi ine soum, nas wstnen bihouk them a consciousness of power which they did not feel a year ago. They expected then that the Federal Government would piiarnntee to them not only political tonal ity, but also hompsteads. Every effort has been made to disabuse their minds a to the prospect of land from the Federal Government, but they have, meanwhile, been learning more fully the significance ol the ballot in the hands of a landless ma jority, with unrepentant rebels for oppo nents, we speaK aaviseaiy wnen we say.

that though the negroes are not now, as formerly, looking lor land irom ine wece ral Government, thev have not given up the expectation of having it in another Unless Johnson, following the lrad ot bis initial movement in disarming the blacks of the District of Columbia, is al lowed to override the present reconstruc tlon, and crush out the Badical po itical strenEtli now rapidlv developing in the South, the blacks, wherever they with their friends are in the votlnsr majority, wiil so shape the State legislation as to make the landed property of the South (theirs by their own past unrequited toil) subserve their immediate wants In the way of education and local improvement. In subjecting the Southern lands to heavy taxation for eductional and other legitimate ends, wa think thev vonM t-wwtrly -well If the Dossession of too much nnproduc- Mv land, under such an administration ahonld he found a burden, its sale at low rates would provide- cheap homesteads for all, and give an Independent agricultural constituency for the State and National governments much more stable and trust-wnrrhv than the South has hitherto fur nished. But in anticipation of this turn of affairs, Johnson alreadybegins to oiscnmi-nam nml to disarm colored men. and the Democratic Journals North- and South raise a great hue and cry against the negroes, and prophesy bloodshed and all sorts of evil results. mac ine negroes will claim more than is justly their due, or that tdey will incline -to enforce their claims in an irregular, violent manner, we do not believe." Thus goes the entire Badical doctrine.

The South is to be parcelled out to the Negroes, giving them not only political equality with the whites, but the white men's farms, subjecting the land not taken for the. homestead of the Negro, to heavy tax-tton tor "educational and other legitimate ends" for the benefit of the African race. The cry ot vote yourself a farm and mule to work it, which demagogues of the Radical school have so, dinned into the e.irs ot the late slaves, to the exclusion of all ideas of earning the land and the mule they hope to possess, is not an idle dream of the simple and the ignorant, but is gravely put forth in a sheet that did as much, if not more, to divide the Union and to keep It divided, than any other one newspaper in the land, But the Standard takes another step for ward when It throws the following" to its brother Radicals. We are near the Presidential cam- nicrK but with impeached and suspended, and prompt, thorough radical legislation, such as we have indicated, the "Bull Bun' of the October and November elections can be more than mxae np. nere mmi arise a continaencu in which it will be the duty of the Congress already chosen not only to next succeeding term." The '-contingency" to which the Stand ard alludes is the failure of the Badical Negro Suffrage party to elect a Preslden In that event, the present Congress, which goes out of power on the same day the President to be elected next fall is, by law.

to- be inaugurated, wlir dispossess Presi dent Johnson and designate Chase, Wade, Fred Douglas or some other man, white or black, to occupy the Presidential ialr for four' years, and then the leaders can perpetuate, their power through the remaindir of their lives. This opn declaration or an internum wj sub vert the Government of the Republic, as Louis Napoleon did that of the Bepublic of France by a' coup etat, coming from the snurre it does published in a sheet whose editor is in all the councils of New F.ncland Badlcalism furnishes evidence of a foregone conclusion on the part of the Wders to retain power at each and everv hazard. The attempt, if made, will settle the question of the proper mode make "treason odious." The Vote on the Constitutional Amendment. In another column we give an abstract Congressional Districts, of the votes cast the late State election for and against the n-ODOSed Constitutional Amendment. is based on.

the official returns In the office of the Secretary of State. These returns 'AV not e-enerallv show the number electors voting at the election as the Con-atirnrinn rpnalres when an amendment 8'ibmitted to a vote of the people. The estl mates In the abstract referred to of the num. ber of electors for candidates and not vot- inz for or against the amendment, are ob tained bv taking the highest number votes cast lor competing candidates for the same office, and subtracting therefrom the aggregate of the affirmative and nega tive votes on the amendment. These non-votes are, according to the provisions of the Constitution, added to the votes given di- rectlv aarainst the amendment.

Our ab stract makes these non-votes 100 more the State than the summing up in the published official list of the votes for or against the amendment, and consequently in. creises the majority against the amend mentbylOO. The number of noes in Greene county, as it appears in the official list published in the papers, is too small by 600. It was put down in that list at 1457 it should have been 1957. According to the offlnial list, Darke county gave 100 more votes on the amend ment than she cast for the competing can dldates for any one office.

In each of the counties of Licking and Fulton the num ber ot votes for and against the amend ment corresponds with the highest nnmber cast for any one office. According to the abstract printed In this' number of our paper, the following is summary of the total vote in the State the Amendment: Vote for Amendment. .9 liiraat rote acainst Amendment S35.340 Majority on direct rote against Amendment.

Cincinnati Enquirer.

The Wm. Allen. of Editor Statesman A number of Democratic naners have struck out on the Pres idency, hardly waiting until the smoke of tbe battle ot the late election had cleared away. Many have thought this agitation premature. Such bas been my opinion; but as the discussion has commenced, it is in order I suppose for all to speak out.

Who shall carry the flag of the Democracy In the great struggle of 1863 is a most important question. That he should be a man of intelligence, sound doctrine, faithful to principle and of stern Integrity no one will deny. That he should have experience in public affairs is not to be doubted. The Democracy, if. prudent and faithful to the time-honored principles of the party, will win the next Presidential race, aud hence it is of the first importance that a man having the qualifications named, and who is at the same time possessed of great executive ability, should be elected as the candidate of our grand old organization.

We have such a in in Ohio one whose friends can look back on his record while a Senator, in a most important and mo mentous period of our history, and chal lenge criticism one who was always faithful, and discharged his public trust with an eye single to tie glory of his country, aud bis whole country. That man is Hon. William Allen, of Ross county. Other gentlemen In Ohio, and other States, have their admirers, and I would not utter a word against any of them but it does seem to me that there would be a peculiar fitness in placing the standard of the Democracy in the bauds of William Allen In the contest of 1863. His name would be a tower of strength his election the salvation of the country.

If the candidate of the Democracy Is accorded to the Great Northwest, then surely the honor should fall upon William Allen, PHILO JACKSON. of Capt. Wm. W. Peabodt has been appointed to the position of Master of Transportation on the -Marietta Cincinnati Railroad, to take the place of General Or-land Smith, who resigned not long since.

Capt. P. has been acting in this capacity tor some time, but the official notice ot his appointment has not heretofore been published. This is in our opinion, the very best selection that could have been made. Capt.

Peabody is thoroughly competent for the post, is a man ot untiring energy, courteous, affable and of the strictest integrity. The railroad company has in him un invaluable servant, and one whose place they would find It very difficult to fill. Gazette. We can indorse the above heartily. The Captain has been indefatigable in his efforts to advance the interests ot the road, and fully merits this evidence of appreciation of his services on the part of tiie company.

He is thoroughly acquainted with the business he has taken in charge, and will prove a valuable officer for the company, and an agreeable gentleman for outsiders to transact business with.

It the wound is a dangerous one, as stated (of which we have no doubt). and "he is doma at well as could be expected under the circumstances:" it may be that he has died ere tins, or it may be that tie will recover.

Relief for the People. 5 6 3 7 7 33 28 15 13 8 3 7 12 8 4 11 3 6 21 3 4 The neoDle of the United States, espe cially the working people, are over-bur dened with taxation, and they emphatically demand a more economical administration of Government. They need and must have relief, and the men who hold official trusts, and manage public affairs, would do well to heed, at once, the unmistakable popular feeling in reference to this great matter. In behalf of the laboring classes, npon whom the Government depends for its very maintenance, we demand a reduction of taxes so as to raite revenue sufficient only to nay the interest on our vast nation al debt and bear the necessary expense of Government. Nor would we hasten tntJ payment of the public debt.

The ebinolish-ment ot a sinking fund to pay the principal in thirty years from date will be hearrily ap proved by nine-tenths ot the irre-gnective of party. We favor the substitu tion of greenbacks for National Bank cur rency, with a view to saving tne interest on, and taxing up, tne jxauonai Bonds araduallu.

In short, adopting the fan euasre of the platform of the Labor Reform party of Allegheny oaunty, "we declare that the administration of Government should be marked by the strictest economy. in order that present taxation may be diminished as rapidly as possible, and all additional burdens upon the people averted."
