The Democratic State Committee have fix ed upon the 16th inst., as the time, and Har risburg as the place, for the meeting o! the State Convention. WILSON REILLY FULFILS HIS PRO MISES. During the last campaign, Mr. Reillv, the Democratic candidate for Congress in this dis trict, declared in his speeches, that he would vote for the admission of Kansas as a State of the Union, whenever she would present her self to Congress with a Constitution legally and regularly formed by her people, notwithstand ing his support of the English Bill which re quired her to have a certain population before she could be admitted. The Opposition dema gogues boldly asserted that Mr. Reiily did not intend to keep his word. Now, to show the great injustice done Mr. R , by these reckless falsifiers, we need but refer our readers to the discussion on the- Oregon Bill, which took place in the House immediately prior to its passage. A test vote was taken on the ''En glish restriction," and Mr. Reiily in accordance with his promises from the stump, voted with the opponents of that "restriction," thus fully redeeming his pledges and maintaining his consistency. During this vote, as wej'learn from the Congressional Globe, the official pa per of Congress, Mr. Reiily said, "that he had slated to his people before the last election, that whenever the question came before the' House whether or not the "English restriction" should be repealed, he would vote for its re peal; he therefore voted 'no.' " A BLACK REP IHI ICANPIL L FOR THE TARIFF MEN. We have before us a copy of the New York Tribune, of Dec. 16, 1858, in which Mr. GREE LEY the great champion of Black Republican ism, talks as follows concerning the last eiec- j tion in this State : "There (in Pennsylvania) the Opposition "was heartily combined on a negative platform "and a union ticket headed by John M. Read, "who was notoriously a Republican pure and "simple, and a very earnest one. The tariff "question was a powerful element in the can "vass;6tr/ nobody pretended that .Mr. Ren a "was personally abetter protectionist than his "opponent, Judge Porter." So it seems that "nobody pretended that John M. Read was a better protectionist than Judge Porter !" Why, every Opposition news paper in the Stale and every Black Republi can oralor from the Delaware to the Ohio, la bored with all their might, from the beginning -fit -to mat jonn M. Read was in favor of Protection and Judge Porter opposed to it. And yet this Black Re publican high priest tells us otherwise, and would have us believe that it was only on ac count of Judge Read's simon pure niggerism that he was successful before the people.— What a sweet pill this must be for the men who thought they were voting for a better Tar iff man than Judge Porter, when they supported John M. Read ! And what a delightful dose to the straight-out Americans who were duped into voting for Read, because their leaders told them he was not a "Republican pure and sim ple," but agreed with them in their peculiar notions! Greelev is a good liar, but always makes a bad witness against his own party. BLACK REPUBLICANISM VS. FREE OR EGON- Another state has been added to our gloiious confederacy. Another star lias risen in the firmament of the Union. Free Oregon shines resplendent in the bright constellation of our Nation's flag. The steady march of Democrat ic progression has given this new lustre to our country's glory. The halting, negative, con tracted policy of Black Republicanism would fain have thrown its dark shadow upon it, but the patriotism of good men and true dispelled the gathering cloud. Thus it is that Democrat ic principles are vindicated from the foul char ges of the Opposition, and thus are the hypo critic pretensions of Black Republicanism fully exposed. Oregon came knocking at the doors of Congress, with a fret constitution in her hand, with no irregularity, or illegality, in the manner of its adoption, and yet the Black Re publican Congressmen, almost to a man, voted against her admission. The same men who shriek and rant for "freedom io Kansas," and denounce the Democrats as slavery propagan dists and enemies of tree labor, were found do ing their utmosi to keep a FREE state out of the Union, whose admission they knew would be a splendid triumph for the u hite laborer of the North ! On the other hand, almost the entire body of Democratic Congressmen voted to ad mit her. Every Democrat from Pennsylvania cast his vote for Oregon, whilst every Black Republican save one (and another who dodged ) gave his voice against her. This is but one of the innumerable instances in which the Dem ocratic party has proved itself truly national and free from all sectional bias. This should convince every thinking man, that as a political organization our Black Republican opponents are not on'y insincere in their professions con cerning free institutions, but that th-y are even ready to oppose swell institutions, it required by the interests of their party. L?t the vote on Oregon be remembered. : MAIL ROUTES IN BEDFORD COUNTY.

KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE That before Mr. Buchanan's election, the .Yew York T-ibune declared that "as sure as there IS a God in Heaven," if he were elected, j all our territories would be made slave states ; j and this infamously and designedly false and wicked declaration, says the .Montrose Demo j crat, was echoed in substance by the whole Fremont party. Look at the result. Two years of Air. Buchanan's wise and judicious ad ministration will have expired on the 4th of March. During this time two E'Yee States have been admitted in opposition to the best (worst) efforts of the Tribune pack. Other ter ritories are biding their time and maturing ar rangements lor a like welcome from the Na tional Democracy, who, alone, ever have and ever w ill welcome and admit new sistere to our glorious confederacy, in spite of the combined efforts ol Niggerism, Know-Nothingism or what ever other detestable ism may spring up to hang as a loathsome excresence upon the Ban ner of the Union. WHAT THE OPPOSITION DO FOR A MODIFICATION.OF THE TARIFF. Can any body tell us what the Opposition members of Congress from this State, have done for a change of the Tariff, dining the (•resent session ! We should like to know.— Last year the Opposition had strength enough to defeat the passage of the Lecompton Consti tution, but this year, with a gain for their side in place of J. Clancy Jones, and with the whole Dcmocra'ic delegations from Pennsyl vania and Connecticut and also several ot the Democratic membeis from Maryland, to assist them, they are unable to repeal the present Tariff laws. If there were a negro in the case, they would have succeeded long ago; but as it is a question concerning the interests of white men, they are quite indifferent about the mat ter. The people will remember their promises. REPUBLICAN OPPOSITION TO A CHANGE OF THE TARIFF. As far as the Republican representatives of Pennsylvania in Congress are concerned, we question the sincerity of their desire to procure a modification in the tariff at this session. Rut it is manifest that other portions of the Re publican party would rather the question would remain open, that the'finances and the Admin istration may be embarrassed, and some little capital laid by tor the npxt campaign. Look at the position of the Republican party in New York, the great centre and bulwark of their power. The leading organ of unadulterated Republicanism, the New York Evening Post.. I is openly and bitterly opposed to the modifica tion of the tariff: the rather favoring progress in the other direction, towards absolute free trade. The New York Times, another leading ! Republican organ, whose columns arc daily | overflowing with the most malignant persona! ; attacks upon the President, is doing ail in its j power to thwart a modification of the tariff in | accordance with the President's recomrnenda j t ion. That paper ivgaids it as "extremely ; satisfactory to find that the country is not to jbe subjected to a sudden and transient change . in its commercial regulations, for the sake of I covering the financial delinquencies and in ; capacity of the government. This congratula- I tion simply meant that, if no change is made i in the tariff, the financial embarrassments of | the country can be set down to the account of ! the Administration, and used to overthrow the ' Democratic party. The Times even thinks ! that it would be better to run in debt—that is, bptter for the Opposition—than to alter the present tariff'. It says : "It is infinitely better that these expendi tures should be met bv appeals to Congress, in ! the face of the nation, for such loans, fhan fhaf : they should be defray ed, even in part, by a ; conspicuous alteration in the rules to which j our commerce has gradually conformed itself, and which can not be overthrown in the pres | ent feeble and tentative condition of commerce, without serious embarrassments to the mercan ■ tile world. While the government is forced j to borrow, it will also be forced to explain the reason of its borrowing, and it must not be al lowed to help itself out of difficulties of its own j making hy hindering everybody else, and dis turbing the curients of private enterprise." Hre we have direct evidence that at least i two of the leading Republican organs of New ! Yoik city are using all their power and influ ence to prevent ar.v alteration in the revenue j laws; and y-t Republicans would persuade us that their party is a unit in favor otan increas ed revenue and incidental protection. That the Democratic party is divided on this ques tion, we have daily evinced, but it is equallv true that a diversity of opinion exists between members ot the Opposition, which would be more conspicuous than it is if the party was in the majority, and forced to shoulder the respon sibility of any alterations inide in the tariff.— Patriot Sf Union.

'X/""On Sunday last, Mr. Sickles, Member of Congress, from New York city, shot Mr. Key, the U. S. Distiict Attorney for the District of Columbia, as the latter was standing talking with a friend on Pennsylvania Avenue. The seduction of Sickles' wife, by Key, was the cause of this terrible tragedy. COMMUNICATION. OIK COMMON SCHOOLS. MESSRS EDITORS : I am now nearly through visiting the schools for the present term. 1 desire to say a few things in regard to them. If you give me a little room ia your paper, I will furnish a few short articles ou the subject. Perhaps they will be interesting to many of your readers. i do not wish to trouble you nor any per son else, with an extended detail of statistics, ; and therelore would merely remark that there ate one hundred and seventy nine schools in the county at this time. Two hundred and twenty eigot applicants were pxatnined during the term. Two hundred and eight certificates were issued ; many of which were of the lower grades. Some of these were employed from necessity and not from choice. In some districts better teachers could not be obtained for the vages offered, and in others, betlerones could not be had at all. The standard of the teachers' qualifications was raised a little higher than it was last year, requiring a little more to get as good certificate. The schools, through out the county, wherever I was able to visit them, have been doing better Ibis term tiian tiie last, with only two or three exception?*.*- The signs of geneial improvement are begin ning to be seen in many places. Teacherss institutes are regularly held in most of the districts for purposes ol mutual improvement ; a disposition to build better school houses and employ better teachers, is showing itself, and in many places there is a more general waking up to the claims and responsibilities of the sub ject. One of the true principles of political econo my is, that every state should educate its own children, or at least see that they are educated. This is nothing more than carrying out the principle that calls for every government to establish laws lor the protection of life and property and the punishment of crime. It is not difficult to see that a good school house, well occupied, is worth much more than] any jail or any code of penal laws, as a preventive ol vice and wickedness. The legislation of our State has hitherto acknowledged this pi inci ple and has acted upon it, especially so duiing the last twenty five years. Hence Educational means fully able to accomplish the purposes for which they are designed, have been liberally provided. The question then forces itself upon the mind : Are the Common School* of our county, as they are now organized, accomplishing the purposes of their institution ? tha is, do they give thoiough elementary in struction and proper moral training to the chil dren ol the people ? lam sorry to say that this question cannot be answered fully and (itislacto ly in the affirrr.ati e It is true that much, very much has been accomplished and the standard of the schools is higher now than at any time in their previous history ; and as a general thing, they were better taught. and more thorough instruction was given during the past session than ever before, and, though j more tr.terest was taken in their success by j direc ors and parents than formerly ; and, j though it is acknowledged that, the inlereal is j increasing and the tendency is upwards ; yet all this does not bring us up to what we ounht to be. We are so far bark ! There is room for j great improvements. Much must be done be- j fore we can enjoy the full benefit of our School system. It is said, by competent judges, tube one of the best in the world : yet there are many persons who object to it in its present form and would object to it in any other form. Those are not wanting who object even to the laws of Clod. It is true, there may be j something to object to iir our present system,! but whatever these objections may be, they bear no comparison with the hindrances toils proper working, thrown in the way by some parents, some directors and some teichers also. 01 these I will speak hereafter, and of each dis trict in paiticular, as some are deserving of much praise. SUPERINTENDENT. AT THEIR OLD TRICKS.— We have observed in Opposition papers various stories of corruption among Federal officials, witli an occasional in sinuation of complicity on the part ofthe Pres ident. Charges so contradictory ol the uniform tenor of Mr. Buchanan's public life, which through all its vicissitudes has never contracted so much as the stain ol suspicion, are too pre poiterous to require lormal relutation. But toe absurdest rumor gains a sort of credibility from perpetual repetition. The following statement, for instance, having been propagated without denial, now circulates as accepted troth in the Opposition journals : "The Seaman Printing Investigating Com mittee is slowly progressing with their testimo ny. Yesterday some development*, regarding the election in Pennsylvania were made. Mr. Wendell, of the Union , says he distributed large sums lor political purposes, especially when the public printing was under his charge ; and that he received a letter from Mr. Buchanan request ing him to expend SI,OOO to deleat John Co vode, which he refused to do." The Slates says a more shameless calumny never originated in the malice of political foes. Mr. Wendell has testified to no such charge : nor could he without committing the basest per jury. Indeed, the accusation is palpably false : since the person for whom Mr. Buchanan is represented to have employed his influence was the opponent ol his Administration or its leading measure. DEPUTY MARSHALS.—The Butler Herald, a paper which doubtless speaks on the authority of the Marshal of the Western District, says there is in many quarters, we understand, some anxiety to know when the appointment ol De puty Marshals will be made. To all our friends who may be interested in knowing we would say That the taking of the Census will not be commenced before the Ist of June 1860. It is usual for Congress to pass laws providing for, or relating to the Census before each decennial period of taking it. The ap pointments of Deputysare not usually made, in deed can't well be made, until it is seen wheth er Congress will make any new provision in ref erence to it. It is very probable Congress will not take up the subject till next Session. In this view of the case, it j* not at ail likely any Deputy a will be appointed before IheSnrneof 1860. b A case of Ama Iga illa tion. It is our painful duty to record one of the most humiliating occurrences known to a cbris i tian community—the marriage of a white girl ; to a negro. The negros name is John Sophia, who has for some years lived in the family of Mr. Jo | seph E. Whiting, a wagon maker in the village |of Hartford, this county. He is % quadroon, j aged 22 years. The name of the victim in this I disgusting transaction, is Amelia Tingley, j daughter ol Mr. Truman Tingley, who resides in Hirtford township, sun? three miles | from the village, and about a mile from the University. Her age is 18 years. * Some months since, the girl lived for a time with a ! family near Mr. Whitings, and during this pe ! riod the plot was concocted, which has had so ; terrible a termination. Her lather iearning that she was being taught to associate familiar ly with the negro, took her home at once, and, to shield her and her friends from disgrace, it was kept a secret ; and here for the tune, the matter ended. On Saturday the 13th inst., the girl went to I church, accompanied only by two little broth ers, (other members of the family being kept at home by the ilness of her grandlather, Da rius Tingley, a notice of whose death appears | elsewere) and instead of returning home, went with Whiting and his wife to their house, when they called in a clergyman to perform the mar ; riage set vice. Of course none would be a par ty to so black a crime, whereupon the parties , went to New Milford and other places in search jof some being who had not decency enough to I deter him from lending himself to so degrading | an act, and on the next day a Justice of the Peace at Kirkwood, iN. Y., consented to give j legal sanction to an alliance forbidden alike by | the law 3 of God and man. When they returned to Harford, and it be came known that they were married, the town was thrown into great excitement, and various demonstrations were made, expressive of the indignation and disgust of the citizens. On Friday night they came to Montrose, to avoid, it is said, the just indignation of the people at | home, and a double bed-room was engaged by Whiting, at Searle's hotel, where the four j (Whiting and lady and Sophia and lady )*peut ' the night before it was known to Mr. S-arle j that there was a darkte in the gang. The next j day, Whiting and his wife, the negro, and R >b j ert Alexander, who also accompanied them on ; their bridal tour, were arrested by the Sheritf i and hrld to bail on a charge of conspiracy, at j the instigation ofthe girl's father. We trust the affair will be fully investigated. The Whi ! tings were so anxious to keep the matter secret i until a marriage could be efiected that they ob j tained a pledge from the clergyman at Harford | (Rev. W. W. Welsh of M. E. Church)!hat in j case he did not marry th- parties, he would ! not reveal their plot, and he, thinking they could not succeed in their disign, did not make it known. In justice to Mr. his family and ' numeious relatives, ail of whom occupy a high | standing in this community, wr niu.it add that they are not rhargenble with anv wrong in the a/Fair. Jn her father's family the girl has been taught no doctrine tending to so degrading a result. The only explanation of the matter is that ner mind was poisoned by the influence of those engaged in btinging about the marriage, who, it seems, are too fully enamored of the mo dern doctrine of "Nenro Equality.'' Were none but themselves affected oy the tesult of their plot ling, it would, coinpaiatively, make little H'lierence, out ihu • J ... g ami int.OWnt girl should tie ruined, and a family an i large circle of relatives have such a disgrace fastened upon them, is too great an outragp to be quieth submitted to. We learn thai a citizen-' indignation meet ing is to be held at Hutford to-morrow. Should there be any error in the above state ment, we will be obliged to any person who will firnish a correction, or add any material information on the subject,— Montrose Demo crat. Dariug Feat at Niagara-Crossing oc Stills above the Falls. The Chicago Press lias an account of a Yan kee adventurer, named Andrew Green h-af, crossing Niagara river between Goat Island and the Falls on stilts, on thel'2th inst., for a bet of SIOOO, made with a Southerner. Green leaf (or Morul!i,as he calls himself, for he passes for an Italian, and is a "showman,") had with him a pair of stilts about twelve feet long, made of wrought iron, flat, sharp edged and pointed shaped in fact almost precisely like a double edged dagger, 'f heje were firmly la.->h~d to his legs,and he walked towards the teiribl- river with a confident smile. The morning was clear and cold f but he was attired very lightly ir. a dress not unlike that usually worn by pro fessional gymnasts. At ten minutes past seven he stepped into the water, which in anotliei moment was boiling, gurgling, and rushing be neath his feet. The boldest of the lookers-on held bis breath in suspense, as the daring man receded from the shore. He alone seemed un moved, and passed on, slowly anJ carefully, avoiding the larger rocks which were made ap parent by the eddying current. His steps at first were very short and carefully made, but afterwards became bolder and longer. The stilts of course H ere so placed that the cu-rent struck only against their sharp edge, and pro duced bat little effect, but the danger of sunken rocks and the conviction that a single false step would send him to death, produced a feel ing which was horribly painful. Once or twice he seemed to lose his balance, and a sick ening shudder ran through each one of the be holders. Recovering himself he still kept on still receded, until to our straining eyes he could scarcely be distinguished from the foam ing waters. The middle ofthe river was attained at last, hours seemed to have fled, but it was barely seventeen minutes since lie left the shore. As he approached the deepest and most dan gerous part of his route, the suspense became more fearfully intense. No word was spoken except that one man offered another five dollars for a moments use of his lorgnette, which offer passed unheeded. Just as Morelli reached the swiftest and deepest portion of the current, he seemed to totter—sink—he threw up his arm— I closed my eyes. Opening them a moment after, I saw that he was still standing. A few moments more, and ke had reached the Cana dian bank—he was safe, and fell exhausted in to the arms of two men who were waiting to receive him. At this hour (3 P. ,M.) he was nearly recov ered, and though still in bed, receives the con gratulafions of dozens of visitors who coine !>our ing in. He I, ft the American shore 903 feet above the fill, and came out about 1,000 feet abort l the Canadian. The money ha? already been handed over to him, and ali will agree that it a' faiily won. His generous op|>onent is able to afford bis low, and s{*aks in praise of Morelli mnre enthusiastirallv than any.
