FIRES — rN EMMITSBURG.—About 9 o'-
iclock on Saturday night week, a large Hay
Rick, with several tons .of hay, the property
of Mr. JOHN Beans, in. Emmitsburg, was de
stroyed by fire--doubtless the work of an in-
•
cendiary. •
Between 12 and.l o'clock the same night,
a clever-sized Barn, the property of Dr. AN
NAN, about 200 yards from the scene. of the
previous fire, was discovered to be in flames,
a nd before they could - b checked, the entire
building was consumed; to r with hay,
grain, a wagon, a cow, ttc. But for the calm
ness of the night and the extraordinary-exer
tions of the citizens, we are informed that
mach greater destruction would have ensued.
ae Catholic Church was at one time thought
to be in imminent danger. This fire was also
the work of some heartless incendiary.
COURT adjourned on Thursday. Quite a
number of the smaller grade , of larceny• and
assault and battery cases Were disposed of,—
none of general interest. In the case of the
Commonwealth against Daniel Lee, charged
with - the - ftrhrg - of - Warrens' Factory, the jury
returned a verdict of not'guilty.

"We'll all. Meet Again in the Morning."—
BALLAD—Words by HENRY__CLAY PREESS ;
Music by MOM AS BAKER. Price 25 cents.
A highly interesting and affecting incident
gave rise to the above ballad, affording a gen
ial and extended scope for the eonceptiVe pow
ers of both poet and musician s and that the
inspiration received therefrom was of more
than an ordinary character, we cite their joint
production in witness. The melody is of that
natural flowing character so acceptable to our
people, and whiCh gives an indiscribable ef
fect to the soothing sentiment of the words ;
it is arranged in the key of two flats. Mr.
Baker is well known as, the most popular bal
lad composer in the country, and the present
production certainly excels any thing we have
'before seen from his "facile" pen. The fol
lowing we quote from the title page--
meet again in the Morning."—
It was a beautiful 'exclamation of a dying
child as the red rays of the sunset streamed
on hint through the window,
."Good bye, papa,
good. -bye ; mamma has conic for me to-night.
Don't cry, papa; well all meet again in the
morning." And the heart of that father crew
lighter under its burden, for something assur
ed him that his angel had gone back to the
bosom'of Him who said,."Suffet little children
to come unto me, for of such is the Kingdom
of 'Heaven." Mr. W. forwards Music free of
postage, and gives five pieces twenty-five cents
each for $l..

too late for thig is.sue. Itwillappear - in — on

We give below a list of all the cases re
moved to the Supreine Court from this Judi

Who, that has I►ad opportunities of reading,
___lintiraLheard of the philanthro ist, lloward,
the greatest part of whose life was spent in
visiting the prisons of Europe, and adminis- -
tering relief to countless numbers of suffering
inmates, and whose name will go down to re
niotest time, crowned with the honors which
millions yet unborn will bestow upon it? In
the same category we may place the name of
Miss Nightiagale, tile4evoted, self-sacrificing
heroine of the Crimea. But while we give
due honors to such names, we Should do in--
justice to a noble and generous heart, were
we, fur one moment, to forget the name of
Holloway. The le of an immense for
tune, which would allow him to traverse the
world in search of pleasure, he chooses, in
stead, to devote his leisure and his talents to
the benefit' of his fellow-creatures, by dis-
Teasing among them the most remarkable
remedies ever yet compounded i arid• which he
himself discovered after years of unremitting
toil and research throughout the vast cabinet
of nature- To these researches Professor Hol
loway was . first incited by the enormous
amount of suffering from various diseases
which he everywhere saw around, and the
sad inefficiency of medical art to meet and
vanquish them; and the success which has
met him at every step—yet no greater than
he anticipated—has proved his well-earned
reward. So great, indeed, has become the
popularity of his medicines, even in the re
motest corners of the earth, that his parent
establishment in London outstrips the largest
in the world; and their marvellous virtues
have been extolled in almost every language
from pole to pole. We have seen innumerable
testimonials from persons who have used these
remedies—stacks upon stacks—in which their
Wonderful powers are extolled - in the highest
degree. In a climate so Variable as ours, the
most insidious diseases are likely to take root
before the patient himself is :mare of it, and
an immense amount of suffering is thereby
entailed, in many cases causing death in fault
of ignorance of the proper remedies, which,
applied in time, would have prevented the fa
tal result. In every case of incipient dis
ease, and even in cases far gone, recourse to
Professor Holloway's never-failing remedies
will save months of painful illness, if not life
itself. We do not overrate the man, nor his
medicines ; but what we are confident of, we
are willing to bear testimony in its favor ; and
as far as our absolute knowledge extends,
covering a space of years, we feel competent
to speak upon 'the subject in the warmest•
terms. Therefore, it is our earnest wish that
-not-a faotily-iirtheAand-shoulaozaut
of the Professor's _remedies, and that they
should always he kept on hand to - use in cases
of suddenillness, as they will operate as well

possibility' of danger to the system arising
from their use.-li)stott.

The lion. Thomas IL Benton, in a letter
dated the 10th inst.,-recommending the with
drawal of the Benton Electoral ticket in Mis

There is a design here, on the part of some
to put up an electoral ticket for Fremont, about
which no one speaks to me, as I have charac
ter enjdvh to keep at a dit.ifance all that class
of - perri.bus who, . dishonorable - themselves,
could approach a man wi th adisbonorable prop

that I'should consider such , a step as injuri
ous under every. aspect—mortifying to Fre

aggravating the sectional feeling which now
arrays each half of the Union against the oth

The - President has issued his proclamation
authorizing the sale of the eastern portion of
the Delaware trust lands,-in Kansas Territo
ry. The.sale is to take place on the 20th of
October, at Fort Leavenworth. These lands,
says the Union, have been classified and ap

appraised value. The towns and cities laid
out ou These lauds will be sold in lots or blocks.
The number of acres to be offered fur sale is
about 208,833, and the quality of the land is
unsurpassed, perhaps, by any other equal body
of laud in the United States; and the location
of the tract, lying and being around Fort
Leavenworth, is very eligible, and most desir
able for a residence.
