HOLMES, Jr. Nov. i2. 73-2t Pretident Buchanan’s View*.—In hia Inaugu ral Address he held the following language: “It is an evil omen of the times that men have under taken to calculate the material value of the Union. Rea soned estimates have been presented of the pecuniary profits and local advantages which would resulf to dif ferent States and sections ft-om its dissolution, and of the comparative injuries which such an event would in flict on other States and sections. Even descending to this low and narrow view of the mighty questiou, all such calculations are at fault. The bare reference to a single consideration will be conclusive on this point. We at present enjoy a free trade throughout our ex tensive and expanding country such as the world never witnessed. This trade is conducted on railroads ;\nd canals, on noble rivers and arms of the sea, which bind together the North and the South, the East and the West of our Confederacy. Annihilate this trade, arrtti its fret progress bg the geographical lines of Jealous and hostile Stales, and you destroy the prosperity and fmtcard march of the whole and every part, and involve all in one common ruin. But such considerations, important as they are in themselves, sink into insignificance when we reflect on the terrific evils which would result from dis union to every portion of the Confederacy—to the North not more than to the South; to the East not more than to the West. These I shall not attempt to portray, because I feel an humble confidence that the kind Pro vidence which inspired our fathers with wisdom to frame the most perfeet form of government and union ever devised by man will not suffer it to perish until it shall have been peacefully instrumental, by its example, in the extension of civil and religious liberty throughout the land.” All kinds of Country Produce taken in exehange for Goode.

Fayetteville, Oct. li, 1860. 60tf Curious Revolutionary Verses.—The following ingenious composition appeared in a Philadelphia I newspaper many years ago Its author is un- i known Its peculiarity consists in the manner in I which it may be read, via., in three different j ways: 1. Let the whole be read in the order in j which it is written; 2. Then the lines downward 1 on the left of each comma in every line^ and 8. 1 In the same manner on the right of each comma, j By the first reading it will be observed that the j revolutionary cause is deprecated, and lauded by I the others: Hark: hark! the trumpet sounds, the din of war’s alarms I O’er seas and solid grounds, doth call us all to arms, i Who for King ueorge doth stand, their honors soon will shine. Their ruin is at hand, who with the Congress join. The act" of Parliament, in them I much delight; I hate their cursed intent, who for Congress tight. The Tories of the day, they are my deadly toast; They soon will sneak away, who Independence boast. Who non-resistance hold, they have my hand and heart; May they for slaves be sold, who act a Whiggish part. On Mansfield, North, and Bute, may daily blessings pour. Confusion and dispute, on Congress evermore; To North, that British lord, may honors still be done I wish a bloek er cord, to General Washington. Historical Magazine. Unitarians.—The Christian Freeman, of Lon don, contains the following statement, under the head of religious statistics: “One hundred years ago there were somewhere about 100 Unitarian ministers in the world; now there are nearly 3,000 distinctly so. There was then a population of about 5U,O00 Unitarians, principally in Transylvania; uow there are about 5i,000,000 Christian Unitarians. One hundred years ago there were about 120 Unitarian church- ee; now there are no less than 3,500.” Extensive Voting.—In looking over returns of the election in Iowa we notice that three counties gave twelve votes each. Sioui county recorded nine votes for Douglas, two for Lincoln and one for Bell. Cherokee county gave Lincoln nine and Douglas three. Buena Vista gave Douglas six and Lincoln six.

Hurrah.—The origin of this exultant interjec tion, the electioneering echoes of which are still ringing in our ears, is probably unknown to nine- tenths of those who use it. It is as old as the Sclavonic race, for aught we know, and is as com monly heard on the banks of the Vistula as on those of the Hudson. From the coast of Dalma tia to Behring’s Straits it is the cry of warlike as sault and the shout of victory. In this country we put it to all sorts of congratulatory and defiant uses, and its most tremendous “vocal effects’’ are comprehended in “three times three and a tiger.” The source of the word is in the primitive*orien tal idea that every man who dies for his country goes to Heaven—Hu-raj, the Sclavonian deriva tive, meaning literally “to Paradise.” Hurrah! is not unfrequently used in America, however, in quite a different sense. The taunting counter- hurrahs of two political factions, for example, very often mean, (it is to be feared) “go to—the other place.”—X. 1'. Ledger.
