M., Mr. Buchanan TIME into town & stopped at the BEDFORD ilo -. kept by John Hafer, Esq. Here a ruber of his personal and political friends eall i unon hm and tendered their congratulations,. , tie. A first-rate dinner was served up to ... company present to which all did ample I : rice. What a striking contrast would be j preseoted, were this simple Republican meal ruerreotyped aad placed side bv side with a • ictureof the exclusive banquets of European royalty! In the afternoon the President received the) ~,0(1 wishes of the ladies of Bedford at the resi- j ■ nee of GenM. Bowman. .If hie visit to our t .wa gave Mr. Buchanan as much pleasure as it i :j ur citizens, we do not hesitate to say that he enjoyed it. Tilt.

May he live, often to iaro to our delightful spa and to take by the jural bis numerous friends in Bedford county. ! who are always glad to meet him and who test- . bv their votes last (all, that the acts ol his! life meet their hearty approval.

VVe are informed that there are -till ; some two hundred (which is not a small num. bet) present. Bedford Springs have been ex tensively patronized this season and deservedly, too. I Bedford Classical School and Female Seminary.—We direct the attention of our readers to the prospectus of this Institution,; published this week in our advertising columns. We have no hesitancy in recommending it t > those desirous of obtaining a thorough classical j education, and to parents we would especially mention it, as an excellent school for children. We bespeak for it an extensive patronage. On an Tour.— We announced last week that General W. H. Kooatz, of Somerset, was in town. We learn that the General in company with Hon. J. R. lldie, has gone to Huntingdon, arid that his jvpose is to a!lay the troubled waters in that county, which threaten to strand the little j barque lie has launched on the ocean of poli tics, and in which he intends to reach the havi-n o: the Senator-ship. Which side of his "polit ical rr.an*' he will show in Huntingdon, we know not. We would advise him to wear a vest, or coat of changeable silk, as a sort of in- : bex to his political notions.
