FROM EUROPE!. Attempt to AssassinateUe King of the French.—The Siege of Btlboa Raised. By the packet ship Sheffield, at g. York, from Liverpool, we have our London papers to the eighth of July, and Paris dates to the seventh. A conspiracy to assassinate Lou. is Phillippe had been discovered. The Paris correspondent of the London Times gives this account of the affai r:— "On this occasion the backwardness of the Police, in giving publicity, to the plot, suggested the likelihood of its reality, and on further inquiry I have seen reason to at tach seine credit to the facts whiCh were brought under my notice, which were, that five persons had been arrested last night, and two more this morning, charged with the design of way-laying the King on his return to the Tuileries from Ncuilly, while passing along the quay which separates the royal gardens from the river, and extends from the Pont Louis XVI., in front of the Cham ber of Deputies, to the Pont Royal, which connects the Place du Carousel with the Fuubourg St. Germain. The place would, doubtless, be well chosen for the commis sion of such a crime if the assassins had no idea of providing tar their own safay, there being nothing along the whole interval be tween the bridges but the river on the one side, and a dead wall on the other, but as there is a strong military post at either end, it is evident that escape would be next to im possible. The turn which the trial of the April insurgents has taken at the'Luxem. Bourg would not be unlikely, a prieri, to pro voke some desperate characters to make the attempt; but then,from the disclosures on the trial,it does not appear that there would bo many who would be ready to engage on such a forlorn hope as this, in which the sacrifice of their*own lives would be required with out any temptation or pretence for personal vengeance to secure the application of an ab stract principle oFgovernmeut." The affairs of Spain seem adverse to the Carlist cause. The death of Zumalaearre. guy is no doubt an irreparable blow to the Pretender. The siege of Bilboa had been raised, and the besieging force had retreated in great confusion to the mountain fastness es, where Don Carlos had his head qaarters. To a handful of British auxiliaries,who wore present and aided in the defence of the town, Is ascribed with the usual boastfulness of English prints about British prowess, dr.c. the duccess of the defence. The Queen of Spain is about receiving efficient aid from France. The Moniteur announces, that by virtue of a convention signed between the Dukes de Broglie and Frias, on the 28th ult., the foreign legion is transferred to the service of the Queen of Spain. No stipulation has been made about strengthening the foreign levet} by any French recruits. Volunteerahowever would be received, and the Prefect of the Seine ad vertises for recruitat/and announces that the public office of the Military Intendant has been opened for the purpose of receiving all who offer themselves, without the necessity of applying elsewhere for leave. There are still some difficulties, however, of a pecunia ry nature, which probably will not be sur- ' mounted until the arrival of M. Mendizabel, who had, however, intimated to his Ambas sador that he could not reach Paris, consis tently with his other engagements, for eight days to come. Two steamboats, with detachments a 'mounting to 800 men; had sailed from Eng land—to form part of Colonel, now General Evan's command. A eonspimcy to overturn the throne of the Emperor Nicholas was discovered in St. Petersburg, in the course of the month of May; and more than sixty persons have been arrested on a char L i of being engaged in it. Such is the secrecy with which the proceed ings of the Russian Government are con ducted,that the news of this affair only reach ed Paris recently. Charles the Tenth, Ex-King of France, was dangerously ill at the last accounts. Letters from Toulon of the 30th ult. an nounce that on that day the French naval division, consisting of ten vessels, amongst which are three ships of the line, sailed from that port for the coast of Spam. Mehemet Ali has withdrawn his opposi tion to the expedition of Colonel. Chesney on the Euphrates, which arose solely from his not having received instructions from the Porte. The Malta Gazette contains an account of the disembarkiition of the expe dition at the mouth. of the Orontes. THE PLAGUE IN EGYPT. CAIRO, May 5.-1 would willingly have delayed writing till I could give you better news, did I not apprehend, as the disorder is unhappily so obstinate, my too long si lence might surprise you. The plague has continued ,to increase from the date of my last letter to this day, so that now above 2,- 000 persons daily fall victims to it in the city, and as great a number in proportion in al most all the provinces of the Delta and Cen tral Egypt. About 50,000 persons have probably already fallen in Cairo alone,which gives the city a frightful appearance. PLAGUE IN SMYRNA. —The mail from Constantinople of the 11th of June bringQ the unpleasant news of the plague having appeared at Smyrna. It is said to have been introduced by an Italian merchantman from Alexandria. All the European inhabitants at Smyrna, who had the means of doing so, are said to have fled from the city. Liverpool, July 9.—The subject of expor tation of flour from this country to America, in consequence of its high price in the United States, and the low value it realizes here, has excited some interest. It appears by the advices that the flour and grain mar- Wig in New York, had been in a state of great animation. The price of flour had liven rapidly tosoven dollars per barrel; and 111 curious circumstance is noticed, that some . /Abe castein eaptainv, who had loaded their itestaila while the price was much lower,un hatdad their cargoes and re-sold their at the advance, procoixiing 'borne in ballast.

THADDEUS STEVENS of Penn. is not only a man of mind, but ft man of mural courage. The antimasonic citizens of Pittsburg, Penn. (where he pronounced a brilliant oration on the 4th,) invited him to a public dinner, which he was obliged to decline. The invitation was signed by 100 citizens, headed by Harmer Denny, one of the only four antimasonic members of Congress, in the Union, who have not deserted or injur ed their party by Whig coalition. The note says— As the uncompromising opponents of Secret Socie ties, and of all other wicked combinations against the Laws of the land, and the rights of humanity, we can not refrain from an expression of the delight with which we hail the presence amongst us, of an early, fearless, independent, and most efficient Champion of political kati-hlasonry. Mr. Stevens replies— "lf, as you do me the honor to suppose, I was an early and efficient A nti-Mason, I havo been so in com pany with you, and the other Anti-Masons of Alleghe ny and my ambition would be fully satisfied to be tiniught, your equal in purity of intention, firmness of purpose, and zeal in so sacred a cause. If I were per mitted to arrogate to myself any merit for serving our country, it would be for maintaining, through all difficulties, uncompromising hostilitm to Secret Socie ties." How differently Thaddeus Stevens behaved than did the traitorous won of Now York, in the Baltimore Convention. Mr.. Stevens argued with all his power till twelve o'clock at night, in primary caucus, .against the nomination of William Wirt. But when he became the candidate of the Convention, Mr. Stevens offered the resolution for his unanimous support,and went home and stood true to his.pledge to the last. The New York men who opposed Mr. Stevens and were mostelliqqpnt for Wirt in Convention, went holueW entered into a conspiracy with Weed and Stone to throw Wirt over board, and support half and half Clay men, and thus forever destroyed the national organization of antimasonry. After this example of treachery those antimasons can never ask an honorable, high minded man, fit for the office, to accept their exclUsive nomination for the Presidency. His answer would fall on them like burning shame. "How did the anti masons of Now York and Ohio treat William Wirt?' Apply this to a national, convention We want a national anti masonic convention, to take a fresh departure. But wo want to meet the people ,there, not the men who betrayed us in New York and Ohio. This should be looked to, and such men should 'not be permitted, - to assume the name of anti masons and hold a convention to pledge the party to any course. If the true men mean to have a convention, they ought to hold a pre liminary meeting in N. York, in October or November. The proposal of Vermont to hold a convention at Philadelphia in Novem ber, is disapproved by Pennsylvania, who yet keeps aloof and have appointed no del egates. We can see no evidence to satisfy us, that our party will hold a convention at all. If they mean to, why is there pot some concert in time and place? From the York Republican. The Washington Co. Farmer. A friend °fours being lately on a visit to the west, called in the course of his journey to see the people's candidate for Governor— Joseph Ritner. He found him, not like George Wolf traversing the state on an elec tioneering tour, and oven extending his trip to Saratoga springs to consult with the New York fox, living at the height of fashionable extravagance on money furnished by the peo ple's treasury. He found him, not like the Reading parson, in his study despatching emissaries and supplying funds to go through the state, purchasing "Gazettes" and estab lishing new Muhly presses. No—he found him hard at work in his cornfield, ploughing, and dressed in labouring attire, leaving po litical intrigue and strife to his competitors. His sons, too, were busily breaking stone on a public road where they had taken a con tract, not like the red-faced, well-condition ed contractors on the state works, spending their time in treating canal commissioners, superintendents and engineers, in order to get into favour with these officers and to draw large estimates. We observe that since the hired presses ofthe distracted party can no longer impose upon the people the falsehood that Joseph Ritner is not a farmer, which lie they wilfully and knowingly cir culated three years ago, these soft-handed and purse proud aristocrats are showing their true colours by declaring that the peo ple's candidate is not capable of performing the duties of Governor because he is a la bouring man; and was not, like their priest and lawyer, bred at College. This aristoc• ratio - doctrine will be received with the con tempt it merits by the ti ue deinoc racy—the farmers and working-men of the common wealth. They know that Joseph Ritner is a practical man—that though he commen-• ced life poor—drove a wagon through the wilderness ,and served. as a muunou soldier during the later, and worked hard until by the sweat of his brow he earned a com. petence, and yet labours on his farm, he has spent that time which professed politicians —renegade priests and fifth-rate lawyers— have employed in political intrigue, in ma king himself a self-taught, practical states man. They know trio that the genuine democracy of Washington County—when dernonracy meant something honest—elec ted him to represent them in the legislature, and that the popular branch of a democratic legislature chose him to preside over their deliberations; and having this knowledge, the people will spurn from them every such aristocratic calumny, and adhere to the honest and practical farmer and statesman. OPPOSE() TO EDUCATION.--The Masonic presses, with their characteristic regard for truth, are busy in circulating that JOSF,NI RITNER isan enemy to education and oppos ed to schooling the poor man's child. How probable this story appears when the fact is taken into consideraton that Mr. Ritner him self was a poor boy—the son of a poor man, and had to educate himself mostly, after he arrived to the years of manhood! Also that he has given his own children every advan tage in his power, or that the county affords, for education—one of whom, now no more, proved not only the pride and ornament of his family, but of his native county, of the military school at West Point, of the army in which he served, and of the Colle g e of which he was a Professor, beloved and esteemed by both faculty and scholars; al though he was taken away in the morning itif a life of promise. Mr. Ritner hi mselltoo, the artificer of his own education, hay been for years one of the Trustees of Washington College—has a : school-house erected on his own farm, for the accommodation of his own filmily and neighborhood, and, we aro credibly informed, has paid more towards education, in proportion to his property, than any man in that section of the country. Do these facts look as if Joseph Ritner was the enemy of education, and the ignorant demagogue that the Masonic party repre sent him to be ? Does it look as if he was opposed to educating the poor man's child, and placing him in this respect upon an equality with the rich? Does it look as if he was in fhvour of keeping the children of the poor in ignorance that they may only become the servants of the rich 7 Every honest man will say, nol It effectually falsifies every charge. Let the Masonic presses therefore cease reiterating this slan der, or produce some evidence to sustain it. [Pe nosy Ivan io Telegraph.

Mr. S. has al ready earned for himself a station in the first rank of American Orators.—Carlisle Exp. POLITICAL Gossir4'Extracts from a otter to the Editor of the N. York Star, rom his Washington correspondent. "Dr. Sutherland was on hero some time ago, and managed to get out of the old Chief the toast in favour of Wolf, which so seriously vexed the freinds of Muhlenberg. The Kitchen are all in favour of Wolf, and Kendall has notified Col. Page, Post master of Philidelphia, and Mr. Baker, the Collector, that before the Ides of October they must renounce Mahlenburg, or take the consequences. in the meanwhile, we understand here that Mr. Van Burn is ad. vised to see Gov. Wolf at the springs and assure hUn that he will press Muhlenberg to withdraw in his favour, and heal the breach in the party. Wolf, however, is not in a humor to allow the Dutch Fox to whisk his tail in his face. The truth is that the fight in Pennsylvania is to decide whether Sutherland, Burden -Dallas, King & Co. shall be the Regency, or Hem, Page, Read, Barker, Co.; it is, as usual, a struggle for the "spoils," and RITNER, be tween the combatants, is likely to carry off the bone. The South getting uneasy, and I think with cause,at the increasing power and fero- cious disposition of tto fanatics and immedi ate abolition men. Nothing short of a con vention of the southern states, next winter, will settle that vexed question. Is it not singular, that GEN . . HARRISON at this late day, should become a prominent candidate for the Presidency? I know but little about him, excepting that he is the 'only man that all the candidates can unite upon against Van Buren. The people are taking him up, and the presses are compelled to follow. It shows that military services are popular and attractive, and unless the kitchen can run their spit through the ribs,of his repute tion, he will he a thrmidahle candidate in deed. His first appointment in political life lie obtained from Thos. Jefferson. We understand that the Pittsburg States. man, one of the few masonic Whig papers in the state, has placed the name of 11. A. Muldenherg at the head of its columns, and now strenuously advocates the election or that gentleman. The Adams Sentinel and Franklin Repository should follow suit, and then the spoils party would have nearly all the wolves that have so long preyed on the honest and unsuspecting, by virtue of their sheep's clothing. It was just such fellows as the editor of the Statesman, that recently undertook to catechise Joseph Ritner—to ask him wether he was opposed to Jackson, &c. &c. [ West•Cheg:er Register. DISGRACEFUL PROCEEDINGS! From the York Republican Republican. BALTIMORE RIOTS. Our readers all remember the explosion of the Bank of Maryland, and the publications which have ensued in attack and defence from Evan Poultney, the President, on one side, and Reverdy Johnson and John Glenn, the trustees, on the other. Public opinion which had been against Poultney, has lately changed, and now lays the blame on the other side. Popular excitement rose to great height against Messr . s. Johnson and Glenn, and on Thursday night last, a mob assembled in Monument Square, in front of Johnson's house, at which some stones were thrown which broke several panes of glass; but the assemblage dispersed in quietness Mier being addressed by the mayor. Oa Friday after. noon a meeting of citi z ens was held, the proceedings of which, recommending sub mission to the laws, had no good ellbct; for in the evening, the mob, augmented to seve• ra I thousand persons in number,again bled opposite Johnson's house—again mis siles wore thrown and glass broken, npd though addressed by the mayor, and Gen. Jones, counsel for the creditors of the Bank of Maryland, they did not disperse; the pol ice interfered in vain, and all was confusion until 10 o'clock when the rioters separated and peace was restored. On Saturday night, the spirit of disorder was yet more strong, and we cannot do better than copy from the "Chronicle" the occurrences of the night, premising that the police had provided themselves with fire-arms, coun trary to the wish and instructions of the IMRE It is with feelings of the deepest sorrow that we proceed to record occurrences which took place. in this city on Saturday night.— On the two proceeding nights there had been assemblages in front of Mr. Johnson's dwelling, Monument square, which had resulted in no other injury to the property than the breaking of some panes of glass. The assemblage on Friday night was ad dressed by the mayor, Mr. Preston, Gen. Jones, of Washington city, the two latter counsel for the creditors of the Bank,ofMary laud. We did not hear either of the addres ses, but that delivered by Gen. Jones was printed by request and circulated and cir culated on Saturday evening, and it was hoped would have had a salutary influence in allaying public excitement. But as an attack was anticipated, a number of addition. al police officers were appointed, some of whom° were mounted on horseback and all provided with batons. Early in the evening these were stationed at the different avenues leading to the square. Soon after dusk the crowd began to collect in Baltimore opposite to Calvert street, great numbers of whom wore attracted by curiosity. Some of the mounted men were here stationed to keep the street clear. Here we understand the disturbance first commenced by the throw ing of stones, quantities of which wore left on the spot from late paving and the gather ed materials for a new building. This mode of warfarecontinued until about ten o'- clock, when fearing that the guard would be overcome, they were supplied with mus kets and ammunition. The heart sickens at the scene that ensued. Discharges from the muskets became frequent, sometimes over the heads of the crowd, and occasion ally amongst it. We understand that the muskets were loaded with small shot, with the view of avoiding the infliction of mortal wounds. Whilst this scene was passing in front of north Calvert at. a body of the as sailants passed around in north Charles street attacked the house of Mr. Glenn, destroyed the windows, doors, &c. and demolished and threw the furniture into the street, but no disposition was manifested to injure the prop erty of others. The contest at Calvert street and other points was renewed at intervals during the greater poi hen of the night, and the guard remained on duty until day light. - Rumours aro various as to the number of killed and wounded—but we have no positive information of more than one of the former. Numbers were injured by the stones thrown, besides those wounded with shot. On Saturday night, fifty-five prisoners from among the mob, were arrested and taken to jail. The American of yesterday morning says:— The excitement in reference to the per sons connected with the affairs of the Bank of Maryland was manifested to a still greater extent on Sunday night. At eight o'clock the house of Reverdy Johnson,. in Monument Square, was attack ed and entered, the furniture thrown into the street and burnt, the interior of the house demolished and the front partly torn down. A short time before 11 o'clock, the house ofJohn B. Morris, in South street, was at tacked, the furniture thrown into the street and burnt, and the interior demolished. About the same hour an attack was about to be made on the newly erected dwelling, of Hugh McElderry, in north Calvert street but it is said that a representation that the property was yet in the hands and at the risk of the contraetor, induced the party to retire. The residence of Jesse Hunt, Mayor of the city, was nest visited, and the furniture thrown into the street and burnt. The house of Captain Bentzinger was also assailed. The store of Capt. Willey in Franklin street. was about to undergo a similar visitation, but the representation by, Mr. Lynch that the property was j►is and not captain W's, was the means of its pros. ervation. The house of Dr. Hintz was assailed; but his lady making her appea rance and declaring that the property was her own, she having received it from her Gather's estate—they- listened to her appeal and departed without doing any injury.— 'Flies° citizens were active in supporting the civil authorities on Saturday night. A little befote day-break on yesterday morning, the residence Of Evan T. Ellicot, in Pratt street was attacked, and tho furni ture thrown into the street and burnt. In all these emps the assailants carried on their proceeMEgs without hindrance or any attempt at it. On Monday morning, the Mayor wive tied the city councils, who after being eddies. sed by him, resolved to issue an appeal to the good sense of the community, which was done. It appears that on Monday, Jesse Hunt, the Ma) or, resigned, and A. Miltenberger was elected in his stead. On the morning of the same day, a meeting of citizens v%ai held, when a motion was made and carried to fiwni the citizens of the respec tivet wards into classes, who should meet in the afternoon in their several wards. On Monday afternoon, there was a general shut. ting up of stores and places of business—the civil authorities called on General Smith for aid, who issued an order culling out the aid division of Maryland Militia. At 10 o'clock P. M. of Monday, the "American" says— "corps of citizens, well armed, are occupy. ing di%rent part of the city,_ arid _thus far every thing is quiet." These are all the details which the papers furnish—many deaths were doubtless lost, but the prints give no information. Major E. L. Finley was wounded and taken to York springs for safety, with a broken leg and many bruises. MORE Honnons.—The Louisville Jour nal contains an extract from a letter dated Cayuga, Miss. July 0. The writer states that a plot was discovered in Port Gibson to poison several families. Two of the leaders in the plot were immediately arrested, and after they had confessed, their guilt, were compelled to take their own poison. Both expired in ten minutes. The Port Gibson jail, the writer states, is filled with negroes; and adds by way of postscript, that 30 blacks have been hanged in Madison county. COMM UN IC A TIONS CCLONIZA.TION.

JACOB LEFEVER. MR. LEFEVER'S REPLY. GETTYSBURG, August 4, 1835. GEORGE ZIEGLER, ESQ. SIR-1 had just commenced work at press when your letter of this morning was hand ed to me, I therefore laid it in the desk, and did not read it until afler 12 o'clock. Lit tle or no inconvenience will result from this delay, I presume; but, without increasing the delay to an extent which might be deem ed unreasonable, I shall be obliged to reply hastily, almost without deliberation or re flection. I am not entirely insensible, I hope, to the• favors of those who have assisted in sustain ing me in the difficulties which have been encountered since I came to this place: Nor, 1 trust, do I possess a revengeful or unfor giving disposition. It is probable that have, in many instances, permitted the lib erty of tho press to degenerate into licen tiousnegs, from a wish to let every freeman , exercise his right of speaking his thoughts_ But, after the unfeeling (to use a mild phrase) manner in which I was recently treated through the columns of another pa per—intimating the , probability, if not the wish, that I would soon be reduced to abject poverty—and this, too, possibly, with the concurrence of all the active men who are now desirous of having their productions pub lished in the Compiler—l say, taking these circumstances into consideration, I do not feel under any peculiar obligations to favor them, contrary to theinterests of those who agree with me in opinion. Personal differences are, I assureyou, ve ry unpleasant tome; and I have often re gretted a hasty expression which produced' them; though it Tight appear to have been justified by circumstances. In reply to the main object of your letter I will only say, that I do not fe*justified ift making unconditional promises, at present; nor would I deem such promises expedient at any time, until I had an opportunity to peruse and judge of the articles offered—un less, indeed, it were understood that names• were to be attached. The article signed "A Wolf Man," in the last paper, was very different from what I had hedlh led to expect from Gen. Miller's conversation with me. [Communicated I have been so °ken interrupted and so• much occupied, that I could scarcely finish; this crude reply to-day. • Respectfully, yours, &c. JACOB LEFEVER. MR. ZIEGLER TO MR. LEFEVER. GETTYSBURG, August 11, 1835. MR. LEFEVER, Your letter of the 4th inst. was duly re ceived, (in answer to mine of the same date,) in which 1 can perceive nothing definite as to our claims and inquires, answers to which were solicited from you on behalf of others as well as myself, who aro friendly to the re-election of Gov. Wolf. In order to make upihis deficiency, there was a communica tion sent to you signed "A Democrat," for publication, which you have not published —giving your reasons in the last 'Compiler,' and stating that "it will be with great re luctance if we publish this or other similar productions." This is agnin as equivocat ing as your first reply. You are. now re quested to give a positive answer, either in the affirmative or ne g ative, as it may seem, best to you .. Should if be in the negative, you will please return the communication signed "A Democrat" to the person whose name was signed to the request made of you, so that it may be published elsewhere, to gether with our correspondence. _ Yours very respectfully, - G.

SIR---Your letter of thitt morning's date has been received: and as you accuse me of equivocation, I will now endeavor to be ex plicit, on some points, at least. As 1 have already stated, elsewhere, had even you ap plied to me, in the first instance, it . might have been improper to withhold any of your decent communicntions; hut, after you were the agent to have myself and my political friends abused through the columns of the Star, with a malignity,and in langnage.which is a disgrace to all concerned; and, after your endeavoring to prejudice the public mind againSt me, in nn important suit short ly to be tried—it was very injudicious, in my opinion, for the friends of Gov. )Volf to push you forward, as the person to ask me to publish for them—i request to which eve ry reasonable person, entertaining my viii%‘ of the circuinstunces, would' have expected 0::)-.Devoted to Politics, Foreign and Domestic Intelligence, Literature, Science, agriculture, (lee Mechanic arts, Internal Improvement, and General altliseetlanyo a direct and positive refusal. The case would have been altered, had a political friend and consistent democrat sent commu nications; but such men are scarce among the friends of Wolf in this county. Ido not intend to publish any communications dero gatory to the character of Mr. Muhlenberg and his friends. Respectfully, yours, &c. JACOB LEFEVER Aug. 12. P. S. I enclose the communi cation signed "A DemoCrat;" but, deeming it prudent to keep a copy of A—und n rheu matic afrection rendering writing very pain ful to me—l could nut reply so soon asi de sired. J. L. For tho Compiler The imposition which has been for a time some. what successfully practised on the good people of Adams county, we think will soon bo detected by all who feel an interest in the preservation of those principles °firm) Republicanism in which it ought to be our pride to continuo to act. Schemes of ambition, which most probably(l'd not originate in this county, but the furthera which have been most industrously pursued y sot of mon whose pride it is to be thought leaders, have boon carried on to an extant which will astonish every man when he reflects upon the means used to im pose upon his understanding, and ho brings to his recollection the , persons who have used thoso moans. You cannot have forgotten the veins which were taken by the nctivo politicians of your acquaintance, to tlefond the policy of the State Ex ecutive, in the promotion of Internal Improve merits, and what is called the General School System, neither of which will long need defenders in any section of the State; for so soon as they be. comethoroughly understood; and the vast advan tages which must inevitable flow from thorn be seen, so soon will both be properly appreciated by nil who havo a due regard for the prosperity of the Commonwoulth, and the mental improvement of its inhabitants. Nor can you now overlook the use that Ilea bean made of the internal improvo. inonts of our country, and that very school law which will in time secure to children of all our citizens opportunities , of acquiring information; which will enable those whose parents him the misfortune to be poor,to compote with the offspring oldie most proud and haughty nabobs of the land; will enablo many in lowly stations, to whom na. tore has been kind and liberal, but the world stin gy and niggard, to rise above the frowns of for tune, and oxalethenisolves to situations in which they will be useful and respectable. When Governor Wolf, was first elected to the office, the improvomonts had been entered upon and much money had linen expended; and what ever may be the result of those-improvements and the consequent expenditures in benefiting or in juring the citizens of the commonwealth, noed scarcely now be inquired into; the money has boon expended, and tho Improvements almost complo• tad do honor to our native State, have placed her in an onviablo rank amongst her sisters, and aro now at this early period producing revenues Ihr beyond tho expectations of the most sanguine ad vocates of the system. The school law was not in operation, had not passed until after his (Gov. Wolf's) election; and wo will not, nor cannot de ny, that although most of the Governors who pro ceded him, had in accordance with the constitu tion recommended something of tho kind, yet that it lied not boon very zealously and perseveringly pressed upon the legislature as an imperious duty, until lie became Governor; and that ho did on eve ry occasion enjoin it upon that body,as a long nog. looted and very important part of the duty which they owed to their Constitution. Until latoly,it suited well the inclination ofthoso who are now Gov. Wolf's most bitter opponents, not only to justify him in his course in those mat ters, as well as in the general course Obis admin. letration, but to praise him as the most honest, up right and rnorkorious of Govornore! Indeed they do not even now pretend to point out or specify their objeations; yet they have the modest assu ranco WWI you, that it will be Anti-Democratic to vote for him! 'Tis somowhat strange, that this discovery should have been made in almost ovory part of the date, by a few very knowing ones in each county, precisely at the same ported, with out the general mass of the people even having harbored the least suspicion on the subject! Had it not boon for the vigilance ofthe lynx-eyed Pa. triots, always wide awake to their own Interests, who had diswered that they themselves had been found out, and that their influence was at an end, we should have never hoard a word on the subject. The alarm has been liaised, tho cry gone forth, that Democracy is in danger! but tho alarmists, the self appointed sontinols who havo raised the I storm, lave not yet condescended to inform the Plobonn throng, froni what quarter danger is to bo expected!! -The peoplo would like to bo informed from what source the information was derived, which was for a long time mostlndustriously,and with an air of groat importance and mystery whispered about. Where did the few initiated derive their intelligenEe, that Gov. Wolf had los t his popularity and could not be re-elected? How was it ascertained, that although the Governor's whole conduct had mot with their most decided approbation, and although they felt the warmest attachment to his person and fame, yet, they were constrained to say, that notwithstanding the un wavering excellence of his conduct, and their un dying attachment to him, they would be compoll. od to give him up! what were the reasons which compelled them, contrary to their own feelinga,in his favor, to desert the object of their fond attach. mint?, The public are as yet altogether in th e dark es to any reasone which could have operated upon their minds; but the public does know, that those who were . erefessedly his most ardent friends, most enthusiastic admirers, are now anxiously en gaged in endeavoring to use against him the very weapons which they themselves within a very brief space of ttrue brandishod in his favor! lIYMENIAL REGISTER.

THE CORNER STONE 0-Of the new English Lutheran Church in this placc,will be laid on WEDNESDAY NEXT. The masons are busily at work, using every exertion to complete the basement story (8 feet above the level of the pavemem,) by that time. The building is 70 by 50 feet. and the location about the most convenient in the place—being in Chambcrsburg street, a short distance iveat of the Court-house; and,when will add much to the appearance of that part of the town. (0-Our country, throughout its whole length and breadth, is exhibiting a scene of anarchy and lawless violence, which is alarming to the judgment, and sick ening to the heart of the patriot. The Laws have every where lost their force; and every man, or com munity of men, redress injuries and avenge wrongs as he or they may find most congenial to their own feel.- ings. And in many parts of the country, this course is justified by the respectable part of community upon the plea of necessity—alleging that the Law does not afford adequate remedy! In the South Western States, a acirronstittdcd! Committee tries and hangs Ameri can citizens by scores! In our larger Cities, Mobs, in open day as well as by night, pull down Convents, and destroy the Property and Lives of private citi zens, almost without resistance! The citizens of Charleston (S. C.) have usurped the direction of the U. S. Mail in defiance of the Constitution and Laws! Baltimore has again re-established its claim to the detestable appellation of "Mob-Town!" What is the cause of this depleFable state of things? It is obviatsly to be found in the principles established by the present Administration of the General Govern ment, AIDED BY SECRET, IRRESPONSIBLE, OATH BOUND, SOCIETIES. Every Citizen has as good a right as the Executive to construe the Constitution and Laws as he understands them; and to judge of the ne cessity which sets aside the operation of Legal Tri bunals, and establishes the immediate action of the self-constituted judge—THE mop! Nor can conviction and punishment ever follow such crimes, as long as Secret Leagues arc permitted to oxist,sworn to screen their brethren from all punishment, whether "right or wrong!" Those who would preserve our country from the worst of Despotisms—a lawless mob—wheth er that mob sit in high places or grovel in the dirt, must lend their whole energies in eradicating forever Secret Oath-bound Socikies, and overthrowing that doctrine of constituting every man the Judge and the Avenger of the Laws. 0(31-There was also a riot and a mob in Washington City last week, on account of the apprehension of an Abolitionist. Order has however been restored there, as well as at Baltimore. OurA very destructive fire occurred in New York on Wednesday morning last. A large block of build ings was destroyed, occupied as stores, offices, &c. and upwards of a thousand persons thrown out of em ployment! Twenty-one valuable printing offices, se ven binderies,and thirteen newspaper establishments, are among the property destroyed. Whole loss esti mated ut about 7 750,000--insurance $215,000. (o—The election in Kentucky appears to have re sulted in favor of the Whims. Out of the thirteen Representatives from that State in Congress, nine Whigs and two Jacksonmen have been chosen—leav ing two districts doubtful. TAXES! rrWhon the People of this State are ground down with enormous TAXES, a bold attempt is muking to continuo thorn, and perhaps increase thorn, by electing a new man of the same party. The Demagogues well knew that the people of Adams county would not vote for Wolf on account of wasteful extravagance, and so they nominated Mulilenberg, who they well knew was one of the brethren of the same tribe, and would pursue the same policy, and never bring the favorite Agents of the Masonic party to an account. We might as well ro.oloct Wolf, as any man belonging to the Masonic party. If you wished to bring an agent to a strict sottloment,or indict him for fraud, would you choose members of his own family as his judges and jurors? Elect Railer; a new party will then bo in pow er, and a full investigation be had of the squan. doring of the $25,000,000 which has boon bestow ed on the minions of the Lodge.

'As it appoars to bo tho general opinion throughout the County that Mr. STEVENS should 'be placed on the ticket, wo have Flo reason to believe, that he will take any stopslo defeat the wishes of the people of all parties. TH A DDEU S ' STEVENS, ESQ. The Anti• Masons hie and in all parts of the State, as far as the fact is known, as we learn, have heard with extreme regret, and, in some instances, with much displeasure, that the able and popular champi , in of their principles, TnAnneus STEVENS has p`osi• tively declined a nomination for the Le gislature. It was not expected at this cris is; and although it is well known that he has served his constituents in the capacity of Representative for the last two years at a great sacrifice of practice and profit in the line of his profession, still it was hoped and expected that he would once more yield to the call of the People, and forget private interests for the public good, at a time when 6 471 AUGUST. 6 46 D. 11.

' his services will be more wanted, if possible than they heretofore have been. His tal ents, influence, sagacity and decision will be almost indispensible, at a time when the corruptions of the administration aro to be probed and exposed to a triumphant 'people. He does not belong to Adams county alone. He is looked upon as the property of the party throughout the state; and as such ho is considered us having no right to decline a nomination of the opponents of corruption, extravagance and masonic misrule in Adams county. This is the voice, and the feeling of our friends every where, and it is ardent. ly hoped that the A nt i• Masons of Adams co. will not allow him at this time to retire from the service of themselves and the country.— There is much feeling on this subject, throughout the slate, and we have too exal ted an opinion of Mr. Stevens to believe that, if he should be nominated he will not yield to the public voice of old friends, awl the anxious solicitude ofthe Anti-Masons thro'. nut the state, notwithstanding his refusal to be a candidate for nomination. The next session of the Legislature will he of more importance to the cause of Anti masonry than any ten years either preceding or follo‘ying 4,114 lie will have it in his power to complete the objects, on which his talents, and eloquence have been exerted in vain, because of• the array °Numerical force alone against lam. Ho will have it in his power to carry the bill against secret socie ties, with others of importance to the best interests of the people, arid the welfare oft he state, at the coming session, and he should not be allowed to let the opportunity of doing so much for the cause and the State pass. We might say much on this subject, but we cut our remarks short after again appealing to the Anti-Masons in Adams county, to send Mr.STEvENs back, "whether he will or not."—Pa. Teligraph.

INTERESTING FACT.—Geri. Harrison, says the Cincinnati Whig, in the course of his speech delivered at Lafayette, Indiana, during his late visit to that place, made the following remarks, by which we are put in possession of a very interesting fact: "The idea was a happy one expressed by a distinguished citizen of our own country, in his address to the veteran Lafay ette, "that he had seen posterity." That same good fortune said General H. was his. It would seem almost incredible that the speaker had at one time been the sole representative in the councils of the nation of the territory which now forms Ohio, In diana, Illinois and Michigan—nay more, that he had once been the chief Execntive Officer of the region last named with the addition of Missouri and Arkansas—of a territory extending from the warm Climate where sugar and cotton are produced, to the cold country of the North where corn will scarcely grow."

UNPARALLELED GOOD ronTlyNE!—Beltz hoover's Lino of Stages has been running from Baltimore westwardly through this place, daily, for nearly three years, during which time the distance travelled has amoun ted to upwards of 110,000 carrying, on a moderate calculation, 10,000 passen gers—and yet the Line in that period, had not mot with the slightest accident of any kind by which the lives of passengers or th interests of tho proprietors have bttrn jeo pardied.— Westminster Carrolltonian. 0-- -- 11Phere should the Church be aunt? Build it as near the centre of business as possible. If our church had employed seve ral good agents to ride through the cotninu nity the last forty years, and answer this question, the cause of Christ would have been essentially promoted. Some congre gations have built little churches in the cen tre of business. Others have supposed that the stillness of retirement would be cavern ble to religious worship. A third class have built a half or whole mile from town, that all the extremes of the congregation might be equally distant from the meeting house, con tending that the people in town might as easily come out a mile, as those in the coun try could come in ono. All these and simi lar reasons are not sufficient. The people in town are not prepared to convoy their families out as those in the country to carry theirs in; and if they were, they are not accustomed to go out for other things, as the people in the country are to come to town, NO that they will not. Christians and imps. nitent sinners in the country, with very little sacrifice of feeling, can and will come to town; but this is by no means true of those who live in town. It is proper, then, if circumstances make one place a centre, to lot that be the centre and not war against the laws of nature. The spot that circum stances make a centre for other business, will have the roads all pointing to it, and that is the spot for the meetina•house.— Most deplorable facts through the country meet the traveller upon the subject. The place of worship is a little out from town. There are the graves of the fathers; habit has made that the spot whither the tribes go up; and you cannot change it without animos ities, and the separation ofdear friends; and still any other denomination, that has its centre in town, is succeeding better than they. 'The minister and best men are dis heartened, many sinners are kept from the house of God, and souls forever lost. Facts will show, at the bar of God, that this mat ter is no trifle in building of the Redeemer's kingdom.—Cincinnati Journal. 6 19 19 19 19 The Shoriffef Cornwall, U.

"Well, Deacon, thoy do say you made ono of your very best spooches at the funeral." Tho Deacon had just buried his fifth wife, and at the conclusion of the funeral services, addressed the mourners as it is customary. This speech was lb° town talk, and the Deacon, good soul, felt ex ceedingly flattered, as well he might. "Well! Deacon! every body is talking of your speech—every body admiring it—but few sown to remember it. It is agreed on all hands, that it was a groat speech, a glorious speech!" "Why yea! I do flatter myself that at times I can do something In that way, Squire. It will bo given us at the hour what it is proper to say, you know—that is some mon havo a kind of superna tural gift that way!
