The Norlhern Light has 650 passengers. The miners are generally doing well The immigrants from China and across the plains are arriving in great tinmbeis. ( Large shipments ol quicksilver havo been made to China. The shipments of gold for tho present year show an excess fur the eight months, over the corresponding period of 1852 of nearly $10,250,000. the strikes among the laborers continue, ftnJ have generally proved successful. The Indian hostilities on Rogue river are unchecked. Two men, who murdered Mr. Buckwith, 6f the Volcano Diggings, weio attested on board tho Drother Jonathan, just as sho win leaving San Fransisco for tho Isthmus. There names were were Dutch Henry and James Fox. Large meetings havo been held in San Fransisco, in favor of the immediate con struction of the P.iei'iu Railroad.

These items, with 650,152 of "Relief" issues, and about hall a million of floating debt, form the aggro gale mentioned. Since the 1st Dec, 1851, the debt has been increased by amount of the appropriation to the North Branch Canal 8850,000 ; and lessened by the operations of the sinking fund, payment of out standing ceilificates, damages, balances of contracts, &c, $918,910, reducing lhe State debt at present to 840,203,633. The payments on the debt made since the first of December, 2851, exceed lhe amount of the North Branch loan the sum of $68,910,52. tl should be slated, also, that in addition to the 8134,000 received in premiums by the cancellation of tho six per cent, bonds, there will be an an nual saving i.. the late of interest of a frac tion over $50,000, or a sum equal to the in- ImrwlrPf. thousand dollars of GIS VIS the public debt.

RIVAL HOL'TKS TO rillLADfcLl'HIA. The opening of the Philadelphia and Sunbury Railroad has had the eflect ot stirring tip the Susquehanna Boat Company, and lhe result is made manifest by innu merable hand-bills, headed Change of Hour Quickest route to Philadelphia, &.c. The Packet now leaves Northumberland, according to the new schedule, at 8 o'clock in the evening, arrives at the Junction at 5 in the morning, by which pasengers will arrive in Philadelphia in time for dinner, say one o'clock. Time 17 hours. ThiSj the bills say, is ''7 hours in advance of any other route." The kind of arithmetic used in making this calculation is not laid down in the bills, but on close examination we find the result is brought about by starting eleven hours earlier, or the evening pre vious. Davy Crockett once upon a time, being asked the hour for dining in Wash ington, stated that common folks dined at noon, members of Congress at 3 o'clock ; Senators at fi ; but Gen. Jackson, who .was more distinguished, did not dine until next day. .It is upon the Crockett principle, we presume, that the Boat Company have made their calculation. Now il we adopt either ol these modes ol calculation, we can prove conclusively, that by the Philadelphia and Sunbury rail road, passengers arrive at Philadelphia thirty minutes before the Boat passengers leave Northumberland. For instance pas sengers take the cars at Sunbury at 7 in the morning, arrive at Pottsville for din ner, and Philadelphia at half past seven in the evening, or thirty minutes before the boat leaves Northumberland. Time 12J hours, or 41 hours less than the boat route, according to their own showing. But se- t riously speaking, the Boat Company must i have been hard up when they advertised j their route 7 hours in ad "anof of any oth er, unless tney look upon the a hours of "rosy dreams and slumbers light," upon the 7 by 9 couches of the boat, surrounded by festooned curtains, as so many hours passed in oblivious felicity, dreaming of cascades and water-falls, that even Shen stone might have envied, while the limpid waters of the canal were splurging through the gates of the lock. But A kn ; that dreams are only dianns ! Thttt fuuey cannot dive A lasting beauty to thus forms, Which scarce a moment live ! E7- The travel over the Philadelphia and Sunbury Railroad is greater than we have reason to expect in its unfinished state. On Tuesday morning there were thirty eight through passengers and three coaches are now running from Shamokia to Pottsville to accommodate the increased travel over the route CSrOur readers will find, on our first page, a somewhat spicy letter, Irom a Northumberland correspondent of the Phil adelphia North American. The sarcastic allusions in regard to this place, should be received with some grains of allowance, The writer, a clever friend, possesses an exhuberant and fanciful imagination, which added to early predjudices, will readily ac count lor occasional flings ol this character.

Our neighbor of the Gazelle states that the Milton Democrat and Sunbury Ameri can are not deposed to give a hearty sup port to D. B. Montgomery, our candidate for the legislature, and intimates that it is owing to his opposition to the $200,000 subscription by the county. We should like to know by what authority the editor ol the Gazette s-ls himself up as a Judge in this matter. We have only to say, for ourselves, that the assertion of the Gazette is utterly untrue and unfounded. We have less reason to feel dissatisfied with Mr. Montgomery on this score than the Gazette, as we nver advocated the subscription, although we always contended it would be a good one while that paper did not only advise a subscription of $200,000, but one of double that amount, let, strange to say, the Gazette, in the face ol all this, has the hardihood to assert that "neither of these papers saw anything to disapprove of be so arranged as lo iillord un equal pattici in Ihis subscription." palion in the benefit to every interest and to If it will do our neighbor anv eviod. we every section.

The cuiitractois along lhe line of I tie road, are vigorously engaged in prose cuting the woik, ami Ilia colliers who are. prepaiiug for the completion of 1 he woik, will be ready with their operations ut about the period of the opening.

This large estate which has lain idle for so many years, will, we are pleased to say, be put into action and profitable operation shortly. Our readers will remember that the heirs of Mr. Uirurd, lately recovered eleven very valuable tracts from Ibe city of Philadelphia iu a suit brought before the Circuit Court of the Uni ted States, and among these were several rich coal tracts located near Girardville, within a distance of two miles from the Mine Hill extension. We learn that w ith as little delay as possible, these lauds will be opened sod will contribute heavily lo the alieady immense trade which flows daily fiom our flout ithinj region.

On Thursday evening , week John Whalen, an Irish man aged about 25 years, employed on the Mine Hill railroad, was so badly beaten by a gang of miscreants about Weslwood, that he died on the following Friday morning. Chas. Reckman was accidentally killed in the mines of Richard Kear, near Minersville, on Thurs day afternoon of last week. Mr. Reckman was a member of the Minersvilln Artiller ists, w hich company notice his decease, by a series of resolutions exprrssive of Iheir re card for him. On the morning of the 15lh inst., a miner, named Patrick Matthew, was instantly killed in the mines of the Tucker Colliery, Tuscarora, by a fall of coal.

The Harrisburg Union gives tho following sketch of the Cornwall Mines, about twenly- five miles from Ilarrisbutg : There appears to be three conical mounds, heaved up from two to three hundred feel above lhe level of the plain, and covering an area of about ninety acres, the e.'.lite con tents of which is a mass of the purenl and best iron oie in Pennsplvaiiia. There is no removing superincumbent earth, and sifting and sorting ore here, and no miners required 1 he whole lull is cut down in benches, as contraclois would remove giavel for an em bankment, and evety pound dug i3 iiou ore, lhat neither requires ro.istiug or preparation before Kiug into the furnace. These mines have been wotked one hundred years, and ihey look as they might last for a thousand more. Wo learn lhat Mr. Worrell, a competent engineer, has made a measurement of lhe mines, from which he estimates them lo con tain forty millions of tons of ore above thd water level, ami it is quite probable that theie is twice as much below the water lev el According to this estimate here is a sin gle tract of land occupy ing the room ol an ordinary Pennsylvania farm, lhat would pay the whole debt of tho Stale and leave a large surplus. This ore is now being sold and w ot keel up at lhe rate of about four hundred tons per day, aud when lhe Lebanon Valley railroad is built two thousand tousn day of it can be sold. All thai is now taken uwav lias lo be hauled iu wagons over a plank loud five miles lo the Uuion canal. When the railroad is finished tracks can bs built into llm pits, nud lhe ore shovelled into the cars from lhe banks, and thee mounds will furnish hade for a rnilioad for a hundred yeais to come.
