Till E TO THEIR PROMISES. The fourteen Democrats in Congiess from this St Me, have nobly redeemed the pledges made by themselves and lh-.:r friends in regard to the revision of the Tariff. Our own mem- j her, HON. WILSON REILLV, has ued his best j exertions, in behalf of the interests of Penn- j svlvania, and his Democratic colleague, Ms. \ PniLLirs, has framed a Tariff bill which, if' passed, would certainly prove satisfactory tot all classes of our citizens. The paramount object of Ma. PIMLLPS, hill, is revenue, but it also aims to give incidental protection to such j of our industrial interests as are thought to le piire it. This bill is all that the iron men can ask, whilst at the same lime it is framed with that special Democratic regard for the welfaieof the masses, which should always be . ■ I r~y .7>R IT IIII.I; ~TS so lightly esteemed by the extreme protection ids. Every Democtatic Congressman from this State will vote far it, and if the Opposition an* really desirous of a higher tariff than the one in force at present, they can attain the object of their wishes by doing so likewise. The Penn sylvania Democrats have redeemed their promises concerning the tariff, will the Black Republicansand Know Nothings redeem theirs ? HEDFORD RAILROAD. From what we can Earn concerning the above-named project, we may safely predict that it will prove entirely successful. There is hardly a doubt but that the "iron steed"' about whose thundering tramp and roaring snort we read so much, will before many years come nulling into old Bedford with all the rattle and clangor of his noisy hoofs. What an era in the history of our county will it be, when the far mer shall always have a market at his own door; when real estate shall double its valfle, and labor command corresponding wages . when stage-coaches shall be numbered among the things that were, and the "occupation" of six horse road-tearrs shall have "gone," like Othello's; when Broad Top coal shall glow in our grates at G cents a bushel, and hickory shall be used for nought but liberty-poles, axe hamlles and split-brooms: when, in short, we shall be connected by railroad with the <rreut cities and commercial marts of this grea' coun- ; try! But a truce to speculation; there should be none of that, now, for, doubtless, contrac tors and sub-con tractors will show us enough I of it before the Bedford Railroad shall be finish ed. We will only add thai there is slill room on the subscription books of the company for a few more names, and (hat all interested in the I making of file road, should once more give it a "shove," cither by subsciibing additionally, j themselves, or by inducing others to do'so. ANOTHER FIRE. On Saturday night last, at about nine o'clock, , the Stable of Ma. Jo>i:ni CLAAIJ, in the Wcs- I tern part of our town, was discoveied to be on fire. A considerable quantity of straw and other combustible matter having be-o stowed away in tin* building, the devouring element | made short work of it. This is the third stable that has been destroyed by fire in this place and vicinity, within the last few months. What is singular about this stable-burning, is the fact that it has thus far occurred at or n<*ar the same points at which former fires of a simi'ar kind took place. This would seem (0 indicate that these ill-fated spots are the haunts of suspicious character?, who probably bivouac thereo* nights, and by carelessness, accident, or design, set fire ' to-their lodgings. Our borough fofheis should i see to these thing*. 1 ''POOR WHITE TRASH" AXD RICH ! NEGROES. The N w York Tribune , (he acknou jedgeJ organ of (he Black Republicans, in a late art icle j on the revolution in Hayti, makes the following ' infamous and disgraceful comparison : " A considerable part of the white popula tion (of Hayti at the time of the abolition of slavery in that country v w ere petit blancs, so called, little whites, the same with the POOR WHITE TRASH of our Southern States, without education, or property, but exceedingly tenacious, like OUR POOR WHITE TRASH NORTH and South, of a distinction which ••nabled thm to lake rank of the most ac coir.p isls-'.I and wealthy MEN OF COLOR !" Here this Black Republican oracle intimates that the p.or white people of our country and the "little whiles''' of Hayti, occupy the same jiositi >n in the scale of society, and declares that the former w ere enabled "to take rank of the most accomplished and wealthy men of color," | thus placing our poor while population on a level with the negro 1 What will the intelli gent American laborer say to this ? Shall such a degrading insult to a class that forms the bone and sinew of our land, go unrebuked ? The "poor white trash," forsooth ! L"t the poor man remember this stigma that Black Re publican aristociacy fixes upon his name. Let him remember it and let him resolve to wipe out of existence the party that dares thus to dishonor him.

J/Chapman, Esq., of Philadelphia, for innumer able favors in the shape of newspapers, speci mens of the new cent, etc., e'.c. The Public Debt. In his late message Gov. PACKER presented a very lucid and satisfactory view of tfie present condition of the State finances, including the revenues, expenditures and indebtedness. The real debt of the Commonwealth, funded and unfunded, he sets down at §39,208,111. lo: —and adds, "to meet this, besides the ordinary I sources of public revenue, the State owns bonds received from the sale of the public works, and | which I have every reason lo believe, are well ! secured, amounting to §ll,l SI,OOO. Deduc ting this from the outstanding debt, it leaves, to Ibe otherwise pro\ ided for,'the sum of §28,057,- j til. 16." Governor continues—Mt is j believed that, with the existing sources of : revenue, and the observance of strict economy, lit.;. v ._ ——l —>—rm- ctrrrrm : year, at least §1,000,000." . • These are truly words of enconrageine nl that carry hope and confidence to the hearts of the ' tax-payers. Our State debt, ( should the bonds referred to by the Governor, be sacredly preser ved fir the purpose to which they were orfo j inaily destined,) is now virtually but $28,087,- 111. 16„ and we alraady have a sinking fund j ol §1,000,000, per annum, which, with proper ! economy, may be continued from existing re j sources. The importance of maintaining this j fund cannot be over estimated, and it behooves j the Legislature to co-operate with the Governor iin giving it permanence, by pledges of fixed i resources that cannot be disturbed. . The potency o( such a fund is mighty for ! good. It would pay off our debt in eighteen years—or, in other words, a million of dollars I thus apriopriited annually, too ther with sl,- 40+,355 50, the sum required to pav the annu al interest on our present diminished debt, will discbarge principal and interest at the end ol eighteen years. Thus our debt of $28,087,- 111.1(1 would he entirely liquidated by this wise appropriation of but $18,000,000 I j To show the vast importance of this measure -till further i—should we goon paving interest, | w ithont a sinking fund, at the end of eighteen ' years, we would have paid $25,278,399 90 ! interest money, and still owe the same debt of $28,087,111. 10, undiminished Out, with the j proposed sinking fund, our debt would be all paid, at the end of the lime specified, and thus eighteen millions, in addition to the-interest that must be paid without a sinking fund, would pay the entire debt. It is as disheart ening and unavailing as the labor of Systphjis, to pay interest without 'inking the principal.— It is also contrary to the honest habits of the mass of our people, in their private dealings, and their servants may rest assured that no measure wMild be more popular with them than the establishment, ii|>on an immovable basis, of a sinking fund, at least large as that indicated b) Governor PACKER. — Patriot end Union. The Territorial Govfriuneots of Arizona, ifacolah and Jefferson. VV ASIII\(;TON , Jan. 2S.—The bills establish ing 'ierritorial governments for Arizona, Daco tab and Jefferson, were to-day introduced by Mr. Stephens, in the House, on his own notice. I'hey are not, therefore, repot Is from the Committee on Territories, though exactly similar to those agreed on by the Committee, excepting the name of the Platte River country, which is in Mr. Stephen's bill called Jefferson. Jefferson will run from the one hundred and lir.-.t degree to the Rocky Mountains, and from tie forty-third degree to the New Mexican line. The object of introducing the bills in this way was to have them printed, so that when the Committee on Teriitories is reached in the call, tile bills then reported can be put on their pas sage, the House in the meantime, having an opportunity to read them. BLACK AND H HITE. — We find in an ex change paper the statement that seventy two white f- nales were married to negroes in the State of Massachusetts last year! If this be so, it is carrying out the Abolition doctrine to practical results. The Banks to Pcns\lvania. In the Auditor-General's report recently made to the Legislature, presenting a state ment of the condition of the Banks of this Commonwealth during the last year, there are one or two points, worthy of notice: 1. The amount the Banks owetUlheir stock holders, depositors and credito s, Jin November last, was $72,095,864 32. 2. Tiie amount of gold and silver at that time, in all the Banks, was $i 1 ,+20,54-7 74. That amount is money , but the balance is mere ly credit, viz : $60,675,216 58. If they are not asked ro pay this large a niounl they can get along quite swimmingly, but if some "Trust Company" should fail, or some sudden demand arise for coin, their condi tion, and that of the community, would be deilorable indeed. Most people seem to forget that the Banks are bound to pay all their liabilities in specie. There is a popular erroron this subject, namely, it rs considered that a Bank is in a good condi tion if its specie equals or is nearly equal to its notes. Whereas it is bound to pay its deposits, and other liabilities, in specie on demand, as well as its notes. Anolher popular error prevails on tire subject of deposits ; they are supposed lo be money placed in the banks for safe keeping : whereas, they consist mainly of promissory notes, dis counted by the banks : and, instead of being money, are only credits. Ir is a singular remedy—although not a novel nor an original one—that is proposed in certain quarters, namely : to use State stocks, which are nothing but credits, to increase the security of banks, when at present they stand in the proportion of seventy-two of credits to eleven of specie ! A remedy to increase the disease is a little different fro n that of the quack doctor, who gave his patient medicine to produce fits, because he was srreat on fits ; but the practice would be equally gsod in either case. Why cannot some wholesome measures be adopted? As, for example, the establishment of a Constitutional State Treasury ; tire prohi bition of notes under twenty dollars ; the au thentication of the issu- and circulation of cer tificates of the deposits ol gold. Some meas ures like these might prevent the evil conse quences of our system of banking, andsive the people a sound currency.— Pennsylvanian. THE AIM OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. "There is no middle ground," says Giddings; "the Republican party must be one. thing or the other—radical Abolition or nothing. Ii must plant itself on the old and despised Aboli tion platform, or abandon its organization as a party. An active, hostile interference with the institutions ol the Southern Slates is impera tive. on the patl of the R publican party, or its organization cannot be maintained. We must take and maintain positive Anti-Slavery ground. The Republican party must come upon my old Abolition*platform, and wage an uncompromi sing war upon the South —if disunion be the result, all right." Such in effect is the language of Giddings, whom a majority of the present Republican party, while they acted as Whigs, ridiculed and opposed. -Giddings tells them the truth when he savs they must take th"ir stood on the old I true blue Abolition platform. That i 3 precisely what they have got to come to —and most of them are already there, i No one who has watched the progress of the i Anti-Slavery movement in our country, will ! question the correctness of Mr. Gidding's propo | sition. The Republican party must float oo the f.wave nli- 4 "—I~*ajLT-iliini-jil 1 ~*ajLT-iliini-jil ar ajhylt o-* rise "O j more.

That purpose is to override the Constitution by means of po | litical power obtained in asedional issue, and j thus virtually dissolve the Union, or compel | the people of one portion of it lo accept such i terms as the victors shall be willing to extend, i Senator Seward's Rochester manifesto means ' simply I hi", and as that has been end us-d by the Republican parfv, tlr-y are bound by its doctrines.— Pennsylvinian. HUNTINGDON, PA. —On the 17th inst.. Eiias B. VV ilson, Esq., summoned a jury, and procee ded to hold an inquest over the remains of a j man Idund on Terrace Mountain, some time j since. Alter a careful investigation, the jury j returned a verdict of death by violence, by I some person or persons unknown to them.— i The skull gave evidence of violence, as it was J fractured in several places. The man's name is supposed to have been Dr. Mayer, who left i Woodbury, Bedford county, about the last of | May, or ist of June, 1856, <o go to Philadel i pbia, since which time he has not been heard ! of, nor has been known lo have reached that ! place. He was a German by_ birth, and is ; supposed to have been a Jew, from thp fact that [ he had two straps about him, which are worn j by the Israelites, in commemoration ol their deliverance from bondage. There was also found with the remains, a small band trunk, 1 which contained one glass inkstand, one taper match box, one tin match box, the cla<p cr frame of a portmonnaie, the frame of a cigar case, and a wooden box filled with matches, which the jury believe to have been the property of the deceased. They aie also of opinion, from the appearance of the deceased that he had been lying theie from four to seven years.— Huntingdon Globe. A MOURNING DOG. —The Boston Transcript says a police oflicer pointed out a rare instance of canine affection to-day. Ajhandsome Scotch terrier has tor two or three weeks past watched beside a grave in King's Chapel burying ground, night and clay without cessation, save only occasional intervals of short duration, when obliged to absent himself in quest of food to prevent actual starvation. During the last severe snow slonn the humane officer first discovered the dog at his devoted duty, and endeavored to call him away for the purpose of giving him shelter ; but the faithful animal would not leave the sacred spot, and responded only in wailing deeper and more melancholy than those of the storm. Even the. subsequent intense cold weather, with the thermometer at 15 degrees below zero, did not drive him from his guard, and he may still be seen daily at his post of watchfulness over the remains of some beloved human being whom he has enshrined in his affections. The sleepless interest manifested by Ibis poor brute would seem to indicate that he cherishes some idea of literal resurrection of Iris friend, and that he must be constantly watching for bis coming. THE BOARD OF CANAI. COMMISSIONERS After a bill bad been can-fully matured providing for the abolition of the Board of Canal Commission ers on the 10th of February oext, Ibe Senate, upon information which imperatively deman ded prompt action, concluded that the safest course was to put an immediate period to the duration ol'the Board by abolishing it without a mom"nt' delay. As stated on the floor of (he Senate, this action was demanded by the abase of the last hours of power on the part of the majority of the Board, in disinterring and allowing claims long since rejected as merit less. The Canal Board has received much unmerited abuse from the Opposition, and now that it is a baut being abolished, they give it a parting kick, as if its errors and faults were l!ir-ir spe cial aversion. This spi.it renders necessary | the observation that the aliowancejof the claims, alleged to be rotten, followed cloae upon the ' heels of the entrance of an Opposition member : into the Board, who has been landed in all the j Opposition prints, both before and since (he : election, as just the man to put an end to the ! corrupt practices nf (he Canal Board. We know nothing positively of the merits or ilemT ! its of the claims allowed, but while Judge i Strickland [aud Mr. Piumer were both members j of the Board, these claims could not receive j their sanction.— llurrisburg Patriot, AN ITEM FOR SMOKERS.—Lite Illustrated con i tains the following in relation to the statement that tin-foil, used for wrapping tobacco, lias dangerous poisonous qualities : "There is infinitely more poison inoo n pack ; age of tobacco, than in the tin-foil that sur rounds a hundred. If anybody doubts this, let Them hold a sheet of white paper over the smoke ih.at curls up from burning tobacco, and after a i pipeful or a cigar lias been devoured, scrape (he i condensed smoke from the paper, arid put a very small amount on the tongue of a cat, and they will see her die by 'strokes of paralysis' in fifteen minutes."

BROWN, Merchant of this Bat, m*-.—i^, n r c ~ ,-xcfnient Ciliz-n has brought affliction and desolation, not only to bis beloved consort and immediate relations—but a!-o to the community at large of which be was a use ful and acceptable member, 'the loss of a dear daughter but three weeks before, and ihe news of the decease ol his venerable mother about trie same time preyed very much on his spirits. In the spring of 1820, the deo'd came to this place in the capacity of teacher in the then :- BeJlord Academy;" an office which he so faithfully and honorably fulfilled, that to this day, many now living bear testimony to his -kill as an instructor, ati.l to bjs probity as a chris tian and a man. He subsequently embarked in the mercantile profession: and during his course in this avocation, he won golJen opinions from all sorts !of men. His punctuality—honor—honesty— and general integrity have been recognized by the unan -1 imous voice of his fellow citizen-; as was most sen sibly demonstrated by the extraordinary concourse j that followed his remains to the grave. By ibis enlightened and freely given counsels, he was •au eve to the blind—a foot to the lame and a light ; to the perplexed and the doubtful. Born at Gongh's town, New Hampshire, (the land | of the Puritans) he was not originally a Roman j Catholic—but subsequently embraced that faith al'- | ter deep study and conviction. If his lo>s to socie i ty and to the church of which he was so valued and consistent a member to the moment of his decease, be an irreparable one—much more so is it to his now stricken ar.d desolate h^me —to his sorrowing iiiconsriUte widow, cbild and near and dear relatives and friends. Their con-olation must be founded in Ihe memory of his many virtues—lns well-spent life, and the bright hope of a blissful immortality —which such a career, as his, trust inspire. They are taught by true christian to say with Israel's holy ktng; "I know () Lord, that thy judg ments are just: and in thy truth, thou ha,t humbled ne." And bowing to the adorable will of God, in thi3 afflictive dispensation, they can pray with the same pious prince and prophet; "O let thy mercy be for tny comfort, according to thy word, unto thy servant —let thy tender mercies come unto rne and 1 shall live, for thv law is env meditation."—Ps.
