THE BEDFORD (iIZETTE. Bctlioi'th Jtnuiaiy 7, 1*3!). B. F. Ifejtis & G. W. Ee*fonl, Editors. THE IMPOSTORS OF THE LAST CAM PAIGN. We need not r n.md the readers of this jour nal, that during the !a<( campaign we did our best to warn the people against the frauds and j hypocrisy of the Nadirs of the Opposition. — We prophesied that all th.-ir ranting about "pro tection," all their out-cry for a revision of the tariff, would prove but hollow pr. fences, and that the)' would nut fa Nil tiuir promises to the people, concerning the Tariff, should they be elected. That we were right in our predictions, is fully shown by the action ol the Opposition in Congress, in endeavoring to stave off the revision of the Revenue laws, and thus to j keep in force the present low Tar iff, of which j they, last fall, complained so bitteily. The i telegraph informs us that the "R-publican" Senators and Representatives in Cong:. "have come to the unanimous conclusion that parties and politics are so shaped in the present Con- j gress, that nothing w ill be effected during this session, concerning a modification of the Tariff." This, being interpreted, means that those ' Re publican" Senators and Representatives, "are determined that nothing shall be effected du ring this session of Congress concerning the modification of the Tariff." They reckon thai as they were able, last winter, to defeat the Pres ident's Kansas Bill, they will, (by a curt filia tion similar to that by which they succeeded in doing the former) be alike successful in preven ting the c-sfablisti ment of a proper Tariff.— Their object in opposing the revision ol the Tariff, is to keep the question open for future discussion. They found it useful to th-mi at the last election, and they suppose that having blind-folded certain people once, they can do it again. They want the Revenue to fall shorti so that the Government will lack the means of paying its debts, and then they intend to raise such a howl about "extravagant expenditures" • of the Administration, as will r ing in the ears of the Democracy for all time to come. And if, perchancp, the "hard times" should contin ue, they think to bellow as lustily as evei for a high Tariff, and to make the people believe that it was not their fault that tile Congress of 1853- 9, suffered the Tariff of 1537 to remain unchan ged. Such impostors as these deserve to be "whipped naked through the world," and if the people do not soon protect themselves against their imposition, they may look to be swindled not only out of their votes, but out of their rights as (fee and independent citizens. MEETING OF THE LEGISLATI RE. The State Legislature convened at Harrisburg i on Tuesday last, but at the present writing we have no account of its doings. The Opposition members of the Lower House, have nominated W. C. LAWRENCE, of Dauphin, for Speaker, flooring COL. MCCLURE, oi Franklin. Lawrence will, of course, be elected, as there is a decided majority of the ring-streaked and striped in that body. The Democrats have nominated P. G. Grilman, of Luzerne, for the same office, and Jacob Zeigler, of Butler, for Chief Clerk. From the following which we take from the Harrisburg correspondence of the Pittsburg True Press (edited by a Republican) one might be led to suppose that "Simon" will soon po : nt up: That distinguished individual, Gen. Simon Cameron, is in town. I saw him on the street to-day, in company with a distinguished Demo crat, who has been in his pay for yeais. Of course, Simon's mission is known. Some "hard up" country editors, with an eye single to Mid dietown funds, have raised his name to their masthead for President in 1860. Ifo comes here to feel the Republican pulse, and as there are quite a number of Republican editors here, and more daily expected, you may look out tor a similar arrangement to that made by Ford in 1836.

Senator Douglas was serenaded last night and in response made a speech from the balcony of the Everett House. He defined his position in rpgard to the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, and the foreign policy of this country, but carefully a voided recurring to any question of a personal character, as between himselfand the adminis tration ; contenting himself with saying that it was the duty of a statesman to follow our prin ciples to their legitimate and logical consequen ces, regardless of the effect they may have on our public position. Mexican Hews. Fiom Mexico, we have news of a rumor that Zuloaga has offered to place Mexico under the protectorate of Great Britain, and that a Mr. Worrell has been despatched to England to ar range the matter. A Spanish naval brig had arrived offTampiro. A bottle bad been picked up at sea, containing a written statement that the Spanish frigate Cuadaioupe had been wreck ed off the Island of L bos, while making prepa rations for the threatened attack on Vera Cruz. A dejiosit of silver, amounting to $ 12"),009, had beer found in a vault attached to the house, in the city of Mexico, lately occupied by Mr. For syth, as the United Stales Embassy. General Zuloaga was still in the city ol Alexico, but was preparing for flight at any moment. Several of his Generals in the field had been defeated bv the Liberals, and the Archbishop had refused lo supply him with any more money. A trium virate was proposed. Five French and three Spanish vessels were at Sacrificios. TRFJIENDOIS PILES OF GOLD. The Bullion in the Bank of Fiance now stands at about $ 120,0 ),0 J.)—a fir higher sum than was ever held bv that estabiishmhnt, and more than $9,000,000 in excess ol the largest total ever collected in the Bank of England.— At the commencement of the present year, the Bank of France held less than $50,090,000, and the influx in nine months has therefore been $70,000,000. At the Bank of England the total, at the beginning ol the year, wa $53, 000,000, and it is now more than $95,000,000. The highest sum it ever possessed was slll, 000,009, in July, 1852 iCjjr°"A Genlile, last week, ran away with a pretty Miriam, the daughter of a Cincinnati pawn broker. They were traced to St. Louis, where the lath°r hail the youth arrested for ab duction. By some means the little Jewess suc ceeded in obtaining permission to visit Itim in his cell, accompanied by a justice from Illinois town ; 3iui while the attention of the jailor was diverted, the parties were made one by the ma gistrate, and the Hebrew's plans defeated in the twinkling of an eye. Woman's wit saved the lover. In the afternoon the father withdrew his complaint, and the happy couple went on their way rejoicing. week there were 174 deaths in Philadelphia; 8S children, 86 adults, 91 males, 83 females. Canada and the ( mlrd Slates. A correspondent of the Journal of Commerce says that though neither her Majesty nor prince Aibert can gratify the Canadians by a visit, yet one of her sons—the Prince who has just enter ed the navy, Alfred, born in 1844—will appear as their representative. You must have hee ded the frequent interviews of the distinguished Canadian delegates in London with the members |of the Cabinet, and the extraordinary lavors, invitations tothe palace, and so forth, which j they have received from the Couit. The main ! object is proclaimed to be a federation of the ! British North American Colonies : the railway 1 across the British territory to the Pacific coast is, however, co-ordinate and necessarily or • integrally connected. The study ol the British | government is 110 longer confined to the means !of simply preventing the colonies lrorn annex ing themselves or being annexed to the Republi can Union, but how to an equal, a rival 1 British power,the whole breadth of the cont inent conterminous with the American popula tion. The Toronto correspondent of the Lon- I don Morning Post, remarks—"lt has become jan utter impossibility to arrest that onward ' movement which will make Canada a formida j ble rival of the disjointed and therefore misna ' med United Stiles." The Pout of the 23d or | 24th contains a communication on the Atlantic and pacific junction, which should not escape j your notice. The writer had well studied his j important subject. He explains in detail the j relative positions "in the case of Gieat Bntain ' and our Republic? I shall veature to offer you i here a short extract : "In America we have a rival that fully ap ! preciates the necessity ol railroad communica tion with the West. Assuredly she will strain every sinew to beat us in accomplishing this gigantic undertaking. Let us first consider our own status in the matter, then that of our highly enterprising rival. England is already fuilher across the huge continent of America than are the Americans themselves in lorniing a basis of operations for a railroad to the Pacific. In our British North American possessions the route is feasible of construction, and is superior to any which the United States aflbrd." Bat the correspondent shows further that, in point of tune, Britain cannot compete with America in the Southern transit ; the more imperative, therefore, an overland route through the Biitish possessions. He describes the Ameri can overland mail, and adds : "The same contractors are in readiness to contract v\ ii!i the British and American Govern ments to carry a mail Irorn St. Paul and Pembina to Fraser River, through British America." The Gold ol Pike's Peak. The Washington Union has published a let ter from J. C. Hemingway, &. Co,, of Leaven worth ci'y, Kansas, to Gen. Ward Burnett, which stuns up the following information HI re gard to the Pikes Peak gold mines : Ist. The gold is found on the surface, and, at various distances, to the depth of eight feet. *2d. The "bed rock" has not yet been reached by any of the miners. 3J. With the iudest implements they were able to obtain from $2 to per day. •Ph. With improved means, such as "sluices" and "tonis" there are "millions of acres" (to use their own phrase) that will produce S2O per da)', and many places as much as $lO. slb. That this new gold region ditfers Iron California in this : The gold is scattered broad cast over a vast extent, and not found in "pock ets," "gulches," and ravines," as in California thus insuring a support, at least for every man that is disposed to labor. 6.0. The specimen accompanying this note constitutes a part ol the labor of the Messrs. Russell, in "more than five hundred different places." 7th. The last place they labored was at "Cherry creek," sixty miles noitheast from "P-ke's Peak." This creek empties into the South Fork of the Platte, on the South side of that river. At this point, Cherry creek, they found the richest "diggings." The Gamblers in Council. The Gamblers of the United States are hold ing a National Convention in Chicago. They are said, by the Democrat, of that city, to make a decided sensation, being distinguished by their sleek appearance, sharp looks and display of jewelry. The purposes of the Convention are, first, to revise the old rules and establish new ones lor their games : and second, to impose on the profession non-inteifeience in politics.— The importance of the first reform is indicated by the fact thai several lives have been lost in broils arising from different constructions of the rules. As for the second, it seems to us, judg ing from recent revelations and notorious (acts respecting the habits of leading public men, that an obvious way to efTect it is to exclude politi cians from gambling houses—a measure which would almost involve annihilation of the busi- ness. Another Steamboat Accident. The large stern wheel steamer Metropolis, Capt. Calhoun, bound from Pittsburg for New Orleans, with a cargo of over four hundred and fifty tons of produce and Pittsburg manufac tures, ran into the bank during a fog, one morning, last week, at two o'clock, at Sug3r Creek, belov/'Cincinnati, and instantly sunk.— The boat is a complete wreck, iiaving broken in two. There were no lives lost. The Sev enty-six coming up, landed at the wreck, Capt. Barclay and his crew rendeiing all the assist ance required. She lies with her bow direct ly in the mouth of the creek, with the water above her cabin floor aft. We understand she went into the bank under a full head of steam. The tall timber knocked her chimneys down- The wreck will be out of water when the river recedes eight or ten feet. The Metropolis was built at Pittsburgh, over two years since, and was in h-T third season. She originally cost twenty six thousand dollars, and it will be re membered, exploded a boiler on her first trip, above this point,killing Capt. Hazlett and others. She is owned by her commander, Capt. Cal houn, Capt. Hazlett's widow, and others in Pittsburgh, where, we understand, she was in sured for fourteen thousand dollars. The loss of boat and cargo will amount to over one hun dred thousand dollars—the hulk being fiom Pittsburgh, and points above Cincinnati. There is a law in Natchez, Miss., which authorizes the Mayor to announce every week the current price of bread based on the cost of first quality flour, and no baker can sell other wise. For instance : lor the week commencing Dec ember 7th, the Mayor gave public notice that first quality of flour being worth $9 per barrel, the weight of a twenty cent loaf must be 53 i ounces, arid in this proportion for the smaller ones. TRADE WITH THC NORTHWEST.—A letter from Chicago, published in the Philadelphia A or/A .American, says : The fact is that, after all, the west and 1101th west are the great purchasers and consumers ol goods. They are more extravagant and use tip more of some of the great staple manufactures —say woolens, cotton and -hardware—and there cannot be a revival of trade at the east to any great extent, until they are again able to buy liberally, and pay for their purchases promptly. I am sorrv to say thai, so far as northern Illinois, Wisconsin, lowa and Minnesota are considered—mote especially the two latter —this longed for stale of things cannot be, | until we have had a good crop, and not a full restoration until alter we have had two good j crops. We have been hardly dealt with, the past twelve months—our crops of wheat and 10.ats neaily destroyed bv the wet weather of tfie past summer ; and this fall, the trade f>r i the season what Utile Ihete was expected— j almost ruined bv two months ol continued rain ; and mud. I have been in this city sixteen years, and comparatively speaking, have never known it so miserably dull as during the past six months. There are some branches of trade I that are absolutely dead, for the time. There is one thing pretty certain, however, that I through economy, retrenchment and reform, the odds and ends are getting pretty well used, anil so soon 'as people are able to buy, their necessities will require 4hem to spend the money freely. Tin: Parts correspondent of the fiiston Tran script states that he has visited the studio of Greenough, the sculptor, and says : On entering, I was struck with a statue of Washington, which he had just finished. As an equestrian statue, it is unique iti its way.— Tile horse, instead of being rampant, as is al most always the ca3e, has his head to the ground. He has just been relieved from the pull of the General's hand, and, with head down, is cham ping the bit, just as any one may observes horse doing altera hard tide. Let the reins go and at once the animal u ill stretch his neck and champ the bit, thus resting the muscles that have been drawn upon for some time. The horse is finished in such a masteily style lint all the jockeys who have seen it are rapturous in their applause. The artist has chosen Ihe most auspicious moment in the great man's life to represent. The General is in the act of shea thing his sword. A GREAT Jut. DELIVERY ! —Two MURDER ERS AT LARGE—TEN PRISONERS GONE. —On Sunday afternoon, about four o'clock, one of the officers of the county prison went into the jail for some purpose, and was struck with the remarkable fact that with the exception of one or two colored men imprisoned for trilling of fences, none of the prisoners could be seen.—- It was not long before Mr. L iwe discovered what had become o! them. A good sized open ing through the three foot wall in the r-ar or west end of the prison told the story. Ten of them had dug thioogh the wall and escaped.— The wall through which they dug is in the dar kest part of the pi ison, and the aperture opens into a small room direcily beneath the arena of the Court room. After once getting into the vacant room below the entrance, it was an ea sy matter to ascend tiie dark flight of steps, break open the ordinary door, and be at liber ty- The following ire the nams of the escaped prisoners and their crimes.—Conrad Seibold, in dicted for the murder of Henry Korrell on 27th ot June last. John Fronenberg, also indicted for the murder ot Koriell. These two are the most impoitant cases. Seibold and Fronenberj are both desperate and dangerous men, and will not be retaken without a mortal struggle. These same men made an attempt to break jail by sawing away an iron grating, two or three months ago, but were fortunately discovered on the eve of the execution of their plan. The other prisoners escaping are Milton Dud lev, horse stealing ; George Miller, burglary ; Thomas Smith, sent to jail to await trial at Com mon u leas Court for shooting Philip Barnell, with intent to kill : Thomas Watson, sent to jail upon the same charge; Wm. Williams, pe tit larceny ; John Kelly, petit larceny ; Robert Armstrong, petit larceny : James Brown, petit larceny. ~0/iio Stafesmin, Dec. 23/A. Ix twenty-four of the thirty-two States, ne groes are allowed no political privileges what ever, that place them on an equality with the white race. Eleven of these twenty-four States are free. New York practically excludes them by a lreehold qualification and a long residence before voting. Two more States —Ma ine and Rhode Island exclude them bv requiring all voters to be citizens of the United Stales.— Massachusetts and New Hampshire are about the only States that make no distinction of color or race, and there they are not allowed to serve in the militia. Ax old man, a beggar, was arrested in Wash ington on Tuesday, for carrying concealed weapons. He was seaiched at the station house, and about §1,4-00 in notes and American and other coin, was found in his pack, along with old watches, awls, tiles, needles, soap, &c.— He, a Swiss, has been in this country about 15 years, and there is so much sickness in this country he is determined to go back to Switzer land, and in order to obtain money that was not depreciated in Europe, he had bought French coin for American. The pistols were for self defence. How a Man's Life is Sometimes Pro longed. Below will be found a certificate from one of our most respectable citizens, residing in Patton township, regarding the efficacy of Dr. Keyser's Pectoral Syrup, a medicine which we have favorably known for a long time, and which is attested bv hundreds of our immediate citizens, in every walk in life. Whatever some may think of what are usually termed patent medi cines, we have entire confidence in Dr. Key ser's Pectoral, as we are assured that the Doctor prepares every ounce of it with his own hands. "Some time ago, an old neighbor of mine was very ill with a bad cough, which every one supposed to be consumption. His relatives told me that he had taken every remedy they heard of without benefit, his brother came to see him die, and all were confirmed in the belief that he could not live. I nad about a third of a bottle of your Pectoial Syrup, which I gave him, and it entirely cured him to the astonishment of all. What makes the case more remarkable is the extreme age of the man. he being about eighty years old. I have no doubt the Pectoral saved his life. JOHN M'GINNIS, April 14th, 1857. Patton tp.
