- Written for the Agitator,
Energy of Purpose.
Energy of purpose, decision of character,
and an ardent desire of becoming useful,
should characterize every lover of justice and
of,right. Among the millions of created in
telligences that inhabil|this globe, how few
are there possessing ihe-powers of reasoning,
judging and comparing, who are willing to ;
throw off the shackles of ignorance and pro-’
judice to enlist under the banner of perseve
rance and march-man fully against the foes
of improvement 1 How few do we dee depri
ved of the /comforts and privileges requisite
for a lifpAf ease, nobly battling against the
disadvantages of poverty,,'and defying the
sneers-of caste and deceit.' How few realize
the advantages to be gained bya thorough
application in whatever they find to do? To
succeed well in any calling a’ man must re
solve lo act —to act nobly, decidedly, uncom
promisingly ; entertaining these views he
will eventually succeed in his purpose. Ex
amples of great energy present themselves lo
the memory, as the mind summons from the
grave those illustrious spirits who have given
us worthy models of self-denial. Where are
your Clays, your Webslers, your Franklins
and your Fullons ?xkThey lie buried in the
tomb, yet they live—they live in the hearts
aad memories of their countrymen. Henry
Clay, the great “ pacificator” —“ the man
who would rather be right than president,”
might have ever lived an unknown tiller of
the slashes, had it not been for that energy
inherent in his nature. Rising above every
opposing obstacle he burst the fellers of pov
erty and inscribed his name on the tablets
of fame.. Daniel Webster, “ the defender of
the constitution”—the ablest mao that ever
graced the halls of an American Congress—
might have ever lived and died a' menial
slave of a New England hotel, had he failed
to use those god-like powers which Deity had
given him, and which he used wiib so much
promptitude and energy in the prosecution of
his designs, Beniamin Franklin—the poor
outcast printer—the successful philosopher
and patriot, who snatched the lightning from
its sun-path in the sky and made it subservi
ent to his will—gave us an undying prece
dent of the power of applying means lor the
accomplishment of desirable ends. Robert
Fulton —that renowned and enviable inventor
and constructor of the steamboat that plows
our rivers and harbors, and-moves on the
broad face of the ocean uncontrolled by the
maddened Tory of the wind and wave—has
merited a name never to be forgotten by
American genius. Poor, apd opposed by the
professed folrowerS.of art and science he im
mortalized his name by adhering to bis opin
ions and executing one of (he finest models
of steam-agency (hat ever benefilted an oge
of improvement. Thai pale-faced, laborious
student, as he watches the'expiring, taper as
it sinks into the socket, feels that Ips life is
one of toil, suffering and uncertainties-; with
an aching head and heavy heart he retires lo
rest to restore lo wearied nature us demands,
witn what diligence he pursues his allotted
task ; with what energy of purpose he applies
his mind lo the solution of perplexing mathe
matical problems and abstaact melaphisi
cal principles; notwithstanding this, the
faithful student perceives a pleasure in every
requirement which lends to improve his na
ture. If you aspire to become great and
useful, labor. If you desire the emoluments
and honors of place, labor. If you wish to
elevalp yourselves in the scale of being, from
obscurity to the higher gradations of life, in
vest yourselves with a greatness of soul, a
nobleness of spirit, and make a bold, ener
getic effort to surmount all impediments, and
stand forth men, untrameled by any formality
or artifice Jdstinus.
From the Westmoreland Intelligencer,
Thc Truc Answer.
The true answer to tho question, “ why is
the Slate debt not paid ?” may be found in
tne following simple statement, Wo will con
trast the receipts and expenditures of the year
1800, during Governor Johnston’s Adminis
tration, with those of the year 1853, during
Governor Bigler’s. We copy from the re
ports of the Auditor General for those years,
who were of course sworn officers, and both
Democrats:
Total roccjpU from all sources during
•the year 1850 of Gov. Johnston'*
' administration, , $4,438,131 51
Expenditures daring tho same year. .$4,569,053 94
Total receipts from all spnrdcs during
ttic joar 1853, of ad-
ministration,.
Expenditures during the same year,.510,144,963 7;
It will thus be seen that Governor Biglerj
during the last year, received five millions}
forty-eight lhovsaniL,'-six hundred and thirty*,
tight dollars and fifty seven cents, Mouh-
Inis GovErinon Johnston is 1850, 'This 1
being more than. double the whole amount
of receipts during that year of Johnston’s ad*
ministration. And yet jit nppeaft l that he
(Bigler) has expended jhis whole sum, and
seven hundred and fifty eight thousand dol
lars additional, over and above his receipts ;
or five millions, five hundred and seventy
five thousand, nine hundred and nine dollars
and seventy nine cents, mobb than Governor
Johnston I
iThe Know-Nothings, it is said,;are'
Waking rapid progress in old Berks, and
chiefly recruiting thejr members from theDe
mocteiic ranks. The Beading Journal, in ;
noticing the organization of the Order in that
county, says,«if half the reports
we near in th e street are true, the progressive
nraneb of the Democratic party appears to
be going over m a tody, so aa to makestire
ef puttrag bid Hunkerism to a total Iroiit.
Indeed, within a week or lwo we have heard
it said of several prominent candidate®' .for
the county offices, thaMhey had submitted
thair names to the « Democratic partyprej
ferring to run their cfmhfeo by paying ebun

wall fell in with fi'ttemendous crash, and the
flames shot up magnificence and

adjacent set fire to them.—
The Girard Bowpiso caught under the, cor

The Chiftese Mu||pm also caught on fire, and
was totally consumed with all its cpntents.

the utmost efforts of the firemen and citizens,
they were also destroyed.
One ascending a ladder, fell
from the third jgfery of a building and was

The wind swept 'fi(onrt the northwest, and
carried the flames with them in rapid and ir :
resislbi;le force, making the whole scene ap
pear like one vast ocean of fire, stayed to

In the Chinese Museum, one noble fireman
was playing a side when an adjoining
wail fell and knocketUiim down, considerably
injuring him; he Sprang to his feet, and
seized the hose again, and commenced work

duct is wqnhy of all praise.
A horse belonging lo the Circus Company
was so much frightened that he would not
leave the enclosure, and the man had to pm
a rope around his neck to pull him put.
Piegons were flying about in all directions,
and fell in the fire and were consumed.
The whole conflagration presented a scene
of unsurpassed grandpur-as the damps lit up
the heavens in lurid flames, and shot athwart
the sky iirtHl the brilliancy of (heir frightful
heavings.
We learn from an (authentic source that
the fire was caused by an incendiary having

Our noble and daring firemen stood up
manfully, notwithstanding the intense beat,
and battled heroically with the flames.
The magnificent of Mr. Earle’s
Gallery, Np. 216 Chestnut street, were en
tirely consumed, or so much damaged as to
render them of no avail tc* the community,
‘ Mrs. Burk’s lace store, No. 212, was en
tirely consumed.
The p/agnifjcent slock of Mrs. Evan’s No.

entirely useless.

A Probable Kidnapper.
When a man is accused of being some
body’s chattel, according to the laws, not of
the United States, for they know no human
chattels ! much less those of Nature, or of
Nature’s God, but of Virginia, Alabama, or
some other barbarian State wherewith we
are unhappily connected, there is a prompT
mustering and hurrying of all the forces of
the Union to throttle the man guilty of having
been robbed of his liberty from birth, and
force him back into everlasting bondage.
But when a man-stealing kidnapper is delected
and denounced —one who has stolen a free
man and sold him into everlasting bondage
for paltry gain—we sea no such alacrity, no
sftch seal, no such array of force, summoned
to consign him to the punishment which the
jaws even of slaveholding Slates provide for
‘him. Is this fair ?
We learn that Morrilo, the alleged kidnap
per of Solomon Northrup, a free colored citi
zen of this State, who was thereby subjected
to twelve years of inhuman bondage and suf
fering as asjavo in Louisiana, was yesterday
morning arrested near Gloversvillc in Fulton
County, and fully identified by Northrup as
the villain who stole and sold him into'Sla
very. We presume there chn be little or no
doubt of his giiilt. Well: does any man
suppose that the arm of the Federal Govern
ment will be stretched out to insure hjs con
viction le— that Judges, Marshals, .Commis
sioners, Dislrict-Attdrneys, soldiers, <Sc’o. will
be rallied into Superhuman activity in order
to insure the execution of justice on this cul

AHUniiter Tarred and Feathered.
A few months since; a man who claims to
be a Methodist preacher, and who lives near
Lebanon, married a respectable
widow lady, who had a daughter some four
teen or fifteen years of age, who was subse
quently prostituted.by-him. The St. Louis
Republican says that as soon as this became
known,, thie greatest indignation was felt
among the citizens, who held a meeting and
resolved’to'lynch him. They proceeded to
his house, but found it barricaded. After a
while, however, he proposed to let them in,
provided they inflicted no other punishment
but tarring and feathering him. This whs
agreed id, and the Republican proceeds to
describe the ceremony as follows: j'
“ The tar and feathers were at hand, and
men willingly pitched in to give him his new
suit. The brushes and mops were dipped
into the tar bucket and speedily applied to
his naked form, while the victim stood like a
martyr. What was their surprise, however,
to find thatlhe substance would not stick, and
slid off- his'jwreon.as fast as it was applied.
Upon questioning him sharply and examining
him they found that the reverend
over, in anticipation of the course that would
be pursued towards him. His ingenuity, how
ever, would not save him, and vengeance
finally triumphed. Some genius in the crowd
suggeslcd a method which was-immediately
adopted. It was nothing more or less than
to sprinkle him with ashes, and a little dirt or
sand. The plan • succeeded —the priming
stuck, and the tar and feathers wore applied
and adhered; after which they trotted him
around on a rail.
The St. Louis Democrat stales that a se
rious proposition was entertained ’at first to
kill him outright, and it was only at the ear
nest pleadings of the more sober rfiembers of
the party that his life.was spared. He owns
a farm somewhere in the vicinity of Lebanon,
and heretofore had maintained a fair enough
character. ’ The citizens have given him un
til after harvest lime to make his preparations
for a removal.
Rumored Slave Insurrection.— The
lasi number of the Natchitoches (La.) Chron
icle says:
For the last few weeks (here has been an
increasing excitement among the planters and
citizens in the neighborhood of Cample and
Grapp’s Bluff, arising from rumored reports
of insubordination and intended outbreak
aipong the slaves. There appears to bo a
conviction in the minds of the citizens that
there is some truth in the reports, but as yet
we cannot see anything to cause alarm.
They have taken precautionary measures, ap
pointed committees of vigilance, and organi
zed active patrols. White men tire implica
ted as the leaders of the blacksj but, so far,
no overt act committed by them has been dis>-
covered. ■ ‘ ' '
Yesterday a large parly of the citizens
proceeded to the bank of the river, where the
Stile hands were at work, and arrested six
teen of them; they were conducted to Na
tchitoches, and placed in jail; there is yet no
charge made out against them'; they are sus
pected of complicity in the contemplated out
break. The negroea .will probably be ex
amined in the course of a few days.

the American ensign from the belfry.;, They
afterward set tKtf'church on fire and it was
