Hawkeris a marble carver, from Philadelphia, and it is said, belonged to the famous " Killers." He made his escape and is still at large. rOgr-Mr. Owns, the new Superintendent of Common Schools for this county, paid us a visit a few days since. He was on his way visiting the several School districts of the county, and appears to be much interested in the cause of education. We wish' him abun dant Success in his new calling.--Shirleys bwrg Herald. : And so do we wish him abundant success in his new calling. In answer to inquiries made by us we learn that he is being emi nently successful in the discharge of his du ties as County Superintendent of Common Schools—in breaking down what little preju dice there exists against the office, by an able discharge of its duties, which cannot but make it appreciated—and in inaugurating a new era in common school teaching, the actual design of the office. And we predict that his future able and energetic labors, though quietly and unostentatiously performed, will win for him and the office which he adorns, the unqualified approbation of every friend of common school education in our county. The beautiful shady retreats which the woods and groves all around us afford are be ing resorted to daily by our citizens and stran gers iii qtieSt of the cool, bracing air, the scenery, pleasure, etc. We have noticed, as they occurred, the pie nits of the several pub lic schools under the direction of their teach ers. On last Thursday the children belong ingto the Catholic Sunday School had an ex ceedingly pleasant pie nie at the Cottage Grove. The children, who were principally under the Superintendency of -Miss M. A. WALLACE, enjoyed them Selves hugely in the way of playing, singing, swinging and feast ing. In the evening they were treated to some excellent music on the Guitar by Mrs. lip vfc.ix, after which they returned in pro per order to their homes, appreciatingas well as youth can, the kindness and -generosity of their teachers and parents. On the following day 801110 of our young ladies and gents got up a pie nie for some visitors, which came off somewhere in the neighborhood of town. Report says it came up to the idea of a pie nic and was a merry affair. We saw then returning, and sup posed the young gents were intoxicated with pleasure—they were tastefully decorated with the wrong tiles—kind of metamorphosed into queens. Long last the season of pie nic sights ! toll) 01-41.04-11:;01 1 1, Ca) lk DKl3aai,kl EDITOR OF THE GLOBE compliance with your suggestion I have made a little note of the grain crops and other affairs in-different townships through which I passed. In Shirley township the wheat looks well, and may be considered an average crop in all parts of the township, while in certain sections it presents a fine appearance. Rye and oats look rather favorable. Clover is a little short but a pretty fair yield can be de pended upon.. Timothy is better than usual. The Corn, as in most parts of the county is backward, and as in many other places the farmers planted a second and , a third time.— Mr. &Mel Douglass, an enterprising farmer, was planting on the 12th June, and he assu red me that he had planted the same field on the 25th, in "a former year, and that his corn ripened. This gentleman is building a very fine barn. Numerous other citizens through out the township, - and the P. R. Road Coin pally at Mt. Union are improving by way of building, showing - that Shirley township pos sesses the elements . of active industry. Ap ples are - plenty, but other fruits have failed. From . Art. Union we have a daily coach to Orbisonia, and 'a tri-weekly mail-coach ~to Chambersburg. The coaches are neat 'and ,convenient. J. Jamison, of Shade Gap, ,is the mail contractor, and shows' an accommo dating spirit to passengers and guests. Eight Miles from Mt. Union and twenty miles south of Huntingdon, the pleasant village" of Shin leysburg shows, a spirit of industry and im provement. _ The streets arc clean and to some extent adorned with shade trees. This village is a corporation and it contains a Fe male Seminary and an Academy for boys.— I both schools and think them under the care of cerapetent . instructors. Mr. Kid der, 'the Principal of the Seminary, has a: high reputation as a scholar and teacher. Germany Valle Y—poetically, the Vale of O ermany—is a rare part of Ihmtingdon coun ty. The' sell is of a good limestone quality. and in a high state of cultivation. The crops of all kinds Ire excellent, the farmers thrifty and contented. CionwELL.—ln this township we find a great variety or soil—clay, slate, limestone gravel, and a fine quality of limestone. In Black Log Valley, and near the residence of Mr. Walter Galbraith, I observe projecting dips of limestone of the best quality, and in ferior to none that I have observed between Pleasant Valley in Blair county and Lancas ter. What it is doing there Ido not know ; it appears to be an exception to any Geologi cal rules within my observation. The crops appear as variable as the soil. In general they are good. There is some complaint of the fly in the wheat. Clover and timothy are good. The fruit is favorable except" the peaches. In my next I will give you a note of Tell and Dublin. Yours, NORTEL HENDERSON, MERCER COUNTY, ILLINOIS, } JUNE 14, 1856. DEAR LEWIS :-I promised to write you from the Prairie land, on my arrival, and de sire one or two stripes for not doing so for a week afterwards. Still there is some allow ance to he made for one who had never seen the great Valley before. First impressions of so new and vast a country as this are not always to be relied on, and I wanted time for more observation and a little familiarity with scenes so different to those with which I have been accustomed from childhood. Ido not know that the appearance of this country took me at all by surprise. Geography and fancy had made a pretty correct impression on my mind as to its mere physical face. But in the quality of its soil ; its unrivaled capacity for vast agricultural returns to the cultivator, and the activity and enterprise of its popula tion did astonish me. This State, in all that -belongs to scientific farming, and the use of every invention calculated to reduce and save manual labor, is fifty years ahead of the cast. This is partly owing to the adoption. of the country to the use of machinery, and partly to a, necessity, arising from the high price of labor. The people, too, live comfortably, in convenient houses generally, and all bounti fully supplied, not only with the necessaries, but the luxuries of life. In regard to the crops, I have seen•nothing like it in my life. From the time we left the low marshes around the brow of Lake Mich igan, through the whole length of the State to the Mississippi, where I was yesterday, I have not seen a single spotted or inferior field of wheat. No furrow vacancies, nor thin un even blotches, mar the level and waving sur face that covers these sea-like prairies. Great quantities of wheat are sown this spring, and from present appearances, notwithstanding the weather here has been exceedingly dry for some time, the yield will be most abun dant. I was much gratified at this, for on our passage through North-western Ohio,- observed as I thought, sad- indications of a plentiful harvest. Some fields, indeed, look ed well, but by far the greater number were anything else than promising. The towns here arc different from our East ern towns, and deem to be' laid out without any regard to the economy of land, but they look fresh, thriving, and throw the advertise ment of the enterprise upon the winds. Mon mouth, the seat of justice of Warren county, in which I now.am with my friends, (being just over the line of Mercer,) is a very thriv ing village, and in a few years has grown up from a few scattered families to a city of some .2500 or 3000 population, Galesburg, some 18 miles up the Burlington and Chicago rail road is a beautiful place, containing two col leges, one female seminary, besides other in, stitutions of learning, and about 5000 p'opu, lation. It is situated in a beautiful prairie, its streets, (as is the case with all western towns) spacious, and .lined with beautiful trees ; the roads leading into it, also likewise decorated, dotted here and thdre with some building of architectural taste and beauty, whilst the town itself, like a second Jalapa, seems as if it had really fallen from heaven, and lies like the picture of .Paradipe in a frame of diamonds. Bat for dirt, business, noise, grandeur and insanity, commend me to Chicago. It is all dirt in the streets, it is all business over the dirt, all-noise in the midst of business, and this never ceases ; grandeur, in the immense size and capacity of its warehouses and many of its business buildings lately put up, and in the ocean-like Lake, that heaves her broad bosom up against her wharves, with her state ly ships and steamboats, that ride upolt it; and insanity in the race after wealth, stretch ing beyond-ordinary euterprize, with an in sanity after the single idea. Chicago is in deed favored. Everything combines to make her a great city—the city of -the Lakes, the greatest city in America off the two oceans. Yours, Mn. EDITOR :—lt has become almost pro verbial that the people of the present age—in this part of the world, arc better acquainted with foreign , 4 emery, than they are with that of our ONVII country, which is so much admi red by straligers. Permit one who has from childhood, perused with pleasure, the columns of your instructive paper, to give to your nu , merous readers a short sketch of a rural val ley in which so many of their sons and broth ers are pursuing their studies, under peculiar advantages. The lovely Valley of Tuscarora is pleasantly situated between the Tuscarora and Shade mountains; the former—being one of a continuous chain extending from the Ju niata river to the Potomac—forms the boun dary between the counties of Juniata and Perry. For `wild and picturesque scenery, this mountain is surpassed by few, in the Keystone State. On the public thoroughfare, leading from Mifflintown to Waterford, the traveller frequently passes farms and farm houses which at once convey to the mind the impression that their occupants " live at home." The Valley is about six miles in width. The soil being heavy limestone, is productive, and in good state of cultivation. The Agriculturists in this vicinity evidently show more taste, in laying out their fields, and constructing their buildings than those of many parts of the State. Eight miles from Mifflin, emerging from a narrow strip of woods, we come suddenly in sight of Tuscarora Academy. This popular institution, founded in 1830, is at present un der the control of J. IL SHUMAKER, A. M., an erudite scholar and christian gentleman ; as well as a faithful, thorough, and experien ced instructor of youth. On a steep declivity, a short distance from the Academy, the Pres byterian portion of the community, have erected a handsome brick Church, in which Rev. a W. THOMPSON, one of the most popu lar and successful ministers of the Hunting don Presbytery, officiates as Pastor. A walk of ten minutes brings us to Tuscarora Female Seminary. This institution was founded in 1854 by Rev. WM. GARTHWAIT, of New Jer sey. The building is large and convenient; commanding an extensive prospect of the surrounding country. The grounds are be ing laid out and beautified with ornamental trees. Both these institutions are enjoying a liberal share of patronage from the sister States, and bid fair to rank among the best institutions of the kind in the country. Na ture has lavished upon this lovely Valley more than an ordinary share of attractions. At the distance of a mile from the Academy, there is a conical hill, at the base of which there is an object worthy of note, known as the " Indian Mound," There lie mouldering in the dust, the bones of many of the once powerful tribe of Tuscaroras. They have gathered around the council fire and sung their war song for the last time, and many " moons ago " they have departed to the "'happy hunting grounds of their fathers." Thd wild deer has fled from the mountain, sides; the dense forests have disappeared be fore the woodman's axe; but the same silVery stream glides merrily along, as it did when the children of the forest tossed its crystal spray from the oars of their light canoes. Lot Etna, raging, sweep her crusted side, Or Blanc, stand highest, of tho Alpine chain; Let Tiber shake his mane, in lofty pride, Or Ganges, sweep his banks, with purple tide: ,Dearer to me than all, shall still remain, Streams and mountains of my country.

Governor Shannon's Proclamation. Below we give Governor Shannon's proclamation, pre viously spoken of in our telegraphic despatches. The firm, temperate, and impartial 'stand taken by the Governor, coupled with the judicious and energetic course pursued by Colonel Sumner, will, we sincerely trust, soon relieve the Territory from the state of anarchy and excitement into which it has been plunged by the wicked counsels and mad appeals of fanatics and demagogues: Whereas information has been received by us that armed bodies of men exist in different parts of this Territory, who have committed, and threaten to commit, acts of law less violence on peaceable and unoffending citizens—ta king them prisoners, despoiling them of their property, and threatening great personal violence; It appearing,. also, that armed combinations have been formed for the express purpose of resisting the execution of the territorial laws and preventing the execution of and process by the officers of this territory: It, appearing further that individuals, as well as associa ted bodies of men, have assumed to themselves the power of notifying citizens of'the Territory to leave their abodes, and in some instances tq quit the .country, under threats of inflicting severe penal ties on those who do not comply: Now, therefore; I, - Wilson Shannon, governor of the Territory of Kansas, do issue this my proclamation, to command all persons belonging to military organizations within this Territqry, not authorized by the laws thereof, to disperse and. retire to their respective abodes, and to warn all such persons that these military organizations for such purposes are illegal, and, if necessary, will be dig ; persed by the military force placed by the President of the United States at my disposal for the purpose of preserving the peace and enforcing the laws of the Territory; that steps have been Mlren to disperse all unlawful military or ganizations which are threatening the peace of the coun try and the good order of society, and to disarm them should they reassemble. All civil officers of the government are required to be vigilant in enforcing - the laws against such of:tenders, and in protecting the citizens both in their persons and prop erty against all violence and wrong. I further declare that all notice:: given to citizens or persons found in the Territory to leave the same, or their house, or any particular locality, are un-authorized by law and highly reprehensible, at tending to breaches of the peace and violence and disorder. . . further declare that all law-abiding citizens of the Ter ritory without regard to party, names, or distinctions, must be protected in their persons and property, and that all military organizations to resist the execution of the laws of the Teiritory, or to disturb the peace thereof. must be dispersed; and all aggreasive parties from without the Territory must be repelled. That the military force placed under the control of the executive of this Territory is amply sufficient to enforce the laws and to protect the citizens in their rights. further declare that in carrying out this proclaznation, no distinction dr inquiry is to be made as to party, but all persons of all parties are to be treated alike under like cir cumstances. '•Obedience to the laws, and consequent security of the citizens-of. Kansa, are 'Amery objects; and all lawless .'ioienee within the Territory, in whatever form it ,may manifest itself, must be repressed," and the proclamation of the United .•.Mates of the 11th February last will be strictly enforced: and a requisition has been made on Col. Sumner for a sufficient military force to insure obedience to the proclamation. I call oil all good citizens to aid and assist in preserving peace, rept...ls-dug violence, and in bringing offenders tojustice, and in maintaining the su premacy of the law. In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and [L. s.] caused the seal of tiro Territory to Le affixed this fourth day of June, MU. T. P. 0 For The Globe By the governor: DANIEL WOODSOS. Secretar3 ST. Louis, June 2a—A letter to the "Republican," da ted, Westport, 17th, says, that Sumner has put the Cali fornia and Santa Fe roads and the principal therwighthres leading into Kansas, under blockade, and has driven out Maj. Buford, Gen. Jonc3 and Col. Shelby, all of them head ing canisrant parties. Another letter, dated Kansas City 16th says that 'Sumner states that every criminal and per son under indictment in Kansas, Omit be arreAed, and that Lane, nor nobody else shall come around into, the Territory,•through lowa, Nebraska, or any other place ox ceptit be over his dead belly. Attempts were made on the night of the nth, to murder the new Deputy .Sheriff of Douglas cannty. who lives in Franklin. Three men came to his hoth,e, and fired through Nrindow at his bed, they then broke Open this door, when the Sheriff shot one of them dead; the iwt, fled. The simile letter says that Sumner has received a dis patch dated flab. from Fort Kearney, stating that it haml of Cheyenne Indians had joined a party of Siopx, and that war had again been proclaimed. One white' settler had been killed. Sumner immediately dispatched a company to Kearney from the camp near Westport. PROCLAMATION. By the Governor of the Territory of Kamm', Kansas News WILSON SUANNON From the Detroit Free Press, June 20 A Tragical Odcurrence—Strang, the Mormon Leader, Shot. The U. S. steamer Michigan, Captain Charles McNair, arrived at this port, 3,e6ter day, from the Lakes. While lying at St. J allies, Beaver Islands, en the afternoon of the 10th inst., a tragical event occurred on shore, which will probably result in the death - of James J. Strang, the well known leader of the Mormon settlement at that place. We derive the following brief details from Capt. Meßlair : It seems that Captain Mel3lair had occa sion to send Strang on business, who while .on his way, to the vessel, in company with the pilot, was waylaid, and shot down with pistols, Alexander Wentworth and Thomas Bedford, two of the former followers. He received throe balls in his body, one' striking the skull behind the ear, glancing, and passing out; one lodging near the upper maxillary bones of the face; and the' third close to the spinal column. After he had fallen, one of his assailants followed up the attack by a violent blow of his pistol over his head, producing a severe contusion of his brow and left eye. The wounds were dressed, as soon as cir cumstances admitted, by the surgeon of the steamer, Dr. McClelland, who continued in attendance upon him until the steamer Ic t. The men satisfied that they had taken his life, fled to the Michigan for nrotection against the fury of the Mormons. Their per sons were at once secured, - and they have since been delivered into the custody of the Sheriff of Mackinac. The Michigan left Beaver Islands at noon on the 17th, when Strang was living and sen sible, but thought to be in a critica state. Seven families, including those of the peti tioners, and consisting in all of near thirty persons, Mormon seceders, thought it pru dent to quit the Island, and took passage in the steamer to Mackinac.
