Time of Competition for Premiums Extend¬ 
ed.—Onr offers for the largest Bets of subscribers ob¬ 
tained on or before Feb. 1st, and for the ilrst lists of 
specified numbers (fifty of 80 each, seventy-live of 30, 
etc.,) were issned Jale, and beside raaDy persons who 
have obtained large clubs, preferred to take extra copies 
Instead of competing for premiums. We therefore find 
that many of the Specific Premiums are not yet taken, 
and have concluded to extend the time for both Large 
Prises and the others (Specific) not yet won, until March 
1st. Let It be understood that all remittances mailed on 
or before the 1st day of March will apply on the Large 
Prizes, and the remaining Specific Premiums wilt be paid 
as fast ns pereons become entitled to them, tir As no 
agent has been advised as to the state of the competition, 
(as to bis or her chances,) or will be before March, none 
Of our friends can reasonably complain of this necessary 
extension of time. TVe hope each and all will continue 
their efforts with vigor and energy, resolved that the 
Rural Bjugadx of 1865 shall largely exceed In numbers 
that of last year—thus fulfilling present indications.

The two Houses of Congress canvassed the 
votes for President and Vice-President on the 
8 th inst. The Senate entered the Hall of the 
House of Representatives at one o’clock, and 
Vice-President Hamlin took the Chair with the 
Speaker of the House on his left. Trumbull of 
the Senate, and Messrs, Willson and Dawson of 
the House, were appointed Tellers. 
The two Houses 
ROCHESTER, N. T., FEBRUARY 18,1S65, 
The Vice-President said 
being assembled, in pursuance of the Constitu¬ 
tion, that the votes be counted and declared for 
President and Vice-President of the United 
States for the term commencing on the 4th of 
March, 1865, it becomes my duty, under the 
Constitution, to open t he certificates of election 
in the presence of the two Houses of Congress. 
I now proceed to perform that duty.” 
He then broke the letter containing the certifi¬ 
cate of the State of Maine, which was read by 
Senator Trumbull. 
On the suggestion of Senator Wade, the read¬ 
ing of the other certificates at length was 
dispensed with, and the vote only of each State 
announced. 
Next, the votes of New Hampshire, Massa¬ 
chusetts. Rhode Island. Connecticut. Vermont, 
and New York were announced ; and, like that 
of Maine, all were for Lincoln and Johnson. 
NEWS OF THE WEEK, 
From the South. 
According to the Richmond papers, the 
result of the late interview between President 
Lincoln, Secretary Seward and the rebel com¬ 
missioners near Fortress Monroe, hay, had the 
effect to enkindle such a flame of military enthu¬ 
siasm in the hearts of the chivalry, that the whole 
world will start hack in affrighted wonderment 
that such patriotism should exist in the 19th 
century. We imagine that we now hear the 
howling of the dogs of war as they run madly 
through the avenues of the rebel capital scenting 
afar off' the hated Yankees! Woe be unto tbe 
hapless victims who shall be encountered bv 
creatures who have been so thoroughly 
inn ■kited with a fresh supply of the elements 
of ■ dropliobiu! How etartliug to us Nortb- 
cn"rs is the tact that the Southern Confederacy 
is now in earnest, and on onr devoted heads will 
soon fall the thunderbolts of a most outraged 
and indignant people! Oh! Mr. Lincoln! you 
have refund to euspend hostilities for an hour 
until the Southerners lay down their arms and 
submit to the laws of the land—you have refuml 
to annul your Emancipation Proclamation — 
Fow have done it — you and your abolition 
Congress have done it — abolufwd Slavery by an 
amendment to the Constitution of the United 
States—abolished slavery in the Southern Confed¬ 
eracy! Yon have now got to contend with a 
nation of giants who will fight! light!! fight!!! 
and if, perchance, they are finally forced into 
the “last ditch,” they will there yield up their 
natural lives on the altar of their country, and 
embark npon a sea of ghostly warfare, and for¬ 
ever and ever do battle against the common, the 
degraded mudsills of the North. Ye misguided 
Yankees, pause in your mad career and learn 
wisdom by the “signs of the times ” before dire 
calamity overtakes you ! For he it. known that 
president Davis has addressed a mighty, a terribly 
enthusiastic meeting of real Virginians at Rich¬ 
mond which assembled to give vent to their 
indignation for the insult our authorities heaped 
upon the Southern cause at the lute peace confer¬ 
ence in Hampton Roads. The spirits of the 
Southern people have been aroused by the spirit 
of their great Chief— aud soou Lincoln and his 
degraded satellites (Davis intimates) will pros¬ 
trate themselves in humble submission at Rich¬ 
mond aud plead for mercy and forgiveness. 
“Stand back! my lords, and let the coffin, pass,” 
and shudder at this symbol of departed human¬ 
ity. The admonition “ be ye wise as Berpents 
and harmless as doves,” comes to you from the 
Mecca of Rebcldom — by heeding which you 
will'escapc the “ wrath to come” and be suffered 
a “little longer” to be counted among the
