Arsi,)-Some editor says that the destiny of the world often
hangs on the smallest trifles. A little miff between Charles
Bonaparte. aud his love Letitia might have broken off a
marriage which gave birth to Napoleon and the battle of
Waterloo. To which the Chicago Advertiser says : "Yes,
that is the fact ; but suppose a little miff' had taken place
between Adam and Eve! What then ?"
ik:n,lrow suggestive of the custom of the season are the
following lines:
Hail, season of turkeys and geese!
Trail, " sasseng-ers," puddings and grease
And dough-nuts hail !—how plenty and fine,
Since death is the doom of the swift:, !
Dula, SALE—Penny Stamps, since Doctor Brewster was
" jerked' for mailing his letters enclosed in newspapers.
INTERESTING—The Huntingdon Abolition Journal—filled
with stereotyped " astounding" falsehoods, which we offer
the editors and their echo $lOO and costs to make good in
a Court of Justice—disgusting patent medicine and hum
bug newspaper advertisements. Strong evidence that the
paper is on its last legs, or at least crippled in its patron_
age. Even the Trough Creckers, who, it ist.aid, heretofore
read the JOURNAL RS they would their Bible, are beginning
to open their eyes to the fact that they have been deceived
and misled by the rascals who control its columns.
SOLITUDE SWEETENED—Going to jail arid living on inolns

Greenland? •No wonder you felt pale.
Rai - We did'nt think a man professing to be an caor,
could become a mail robber. Its too bad, too bad.--,K wet
G. Whittaker.
That's cool—for an assistant editor to give the Doctor
such a thrust under the left rib, in his own paper. Doctor,
you should read the proof sheets after that. There is about
as much honesty in keeping from as taking from the mails.
W If you wish to know what are the "ups and downs
of life," get drunk sonic day ehen the sidewalks are cov
ered with ice.—Bretoster cE Whittaker.
We. did'nt hear of it—did you hurt yourselves
IM. Wm. Lewis, editor of the Globe, says Mr. Oillam
denies having said that Snare took all the printed mailable
packages in his post office, and that \ e lie. We don't In
lieve Mr. Gillam ever said so.—Breloster d Whittak-er.
You can easily find out what Mr. Gillam did say, and
what he will say. We will take his word, over his own
signature. Get him to make a statement, and we'll agree
to publish it. Face the music you lying whelps.
IM. We hope to God the Post 01 - lice of this place, will
have a competent officer the next four years.— Whittaker
Brewster.
One that will not detect and expose your rascality? We
cannot forgive ourself for permitting you to act the rascal
as lung as you did. We should have caught you before
you got so deep into it. But then you took the advantage
of our stupidity. We'll watch you close hereafter.
tia,. WHAT'S \mom; WITH GABE I—He has'nt been seen
as public as usual for some days past. Guess those fingers
of . scorn pointed at him, are keeping him within doors.—
It's a pity such apromising young man should fall so soon.
Will the editor of the Globe, being postmaster, tell
us what mail robber means ?-13rezester
Mail robber means a man guilty of robbing the mail.—
Now don't plead hereafter, that because you have been in
the habit of doing so and so, that it's a liberty you have
"according to law," and "know no better."
WE MUST BE SOME, AND 1 , 10 NISTARE.—We ]earn from
the ../i:rarmat, that in view of our strength, the editors in
tend to import a giant editor to do their fighting. Fetch
him on—we'll fight a regiment of such things, with truth
as our weapon, and whip them all in the bargain.
CIIRLSTM:kB PRESENTS.--F 01: the best and most to be ap
preciated and admired, call on Mr. Prettyman, and have
your likeness taken, and then present it to a friend. It
can be sent by mail at a trifling cost.
ASTOUNDIZiG CoNsEssioN.—Doctor Brewster, one of the
editors of the Journal makes this confession in his last
paper :—" We have beenin the habit of sending our 'cir
culars' to advertisers, within our papers," and " more un
der belief that we were permitted this liberty ' 'according
to law,' and knew no better until the editor of the Globe
sued." The Doctor's circular consisted of a half sheet let
ter paper printed on one side and on the other side was a
written letter, making the whole as much a manuscript
letter as if the circular had not been printed on the oppo
site side of the sheet. Doctor Brewster was not 'jerked"
for enclosing in his paper a "circulth "—it was for enclos
ing-a Manuscript letter,' as the evidence in Squire Snare's
office will show. And such letters Doctor Brewster says
are 'circulars'—the same as he admits he has been in the
habit of mailing within his papers. One of the ten such
circulars he mailed in one day, we handed over to Squire
Snare, incomplianco with our oath of.office and instruc
tions from the office to which. the concealed letter had
been directed. The Doctor's assertion that ho was under
the belief that he was permitted such liberty "according
to law" and knew no letter, is FALSE.' He read the
law, and knew at the time he mailed ten letters in one day
concealed in his papers, that he was not "permitted the lib
erty according to law." But as he had been in the habit
of doing the same thing (saving on a fair average 10 cents
a day, since he has been in business here,) he thought he
could still escape detection. Doctor Brewster has been in
business here for near three years—and as ho has been in
the habit of mailing such " circulars" within his papers,
we Will see to what amount he has defrauded the United
States. Say he has been in business two years and sit
months—give him 749 days to mail on an average five of
his "circulars" daily—ten cents saved every day will
amount to $74 90 the Post Office Department has lost by
Doctor Brewster's fraudulent conduct. Then there are
some fines yet to be collected which will reduCe tho Doc
tor's profits to a small-pile—but as the winter promises to
be pretty close we shall bo merciful and give him•a Chalice
toirtY iii his fodder.
CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GLOBE•
A Letter from the West.
FRIEND LEWlS:—(laving received many
letters of inquiry concerning the West, from
our friends in Huntingdon county, and not
having leisure time to answer them severally,
and knoviing that most of them are readers
of the Globe, we beg your permission to make
it the medium of communicating to them our
opinion, together with some facts and features
of the western country.
After spending over twelve months in ram
bling over several of the western States, we
have come to the conclusion that Central lowa
is . the prace for Pennsylvanians seeking homes
in the west.
The almost lake-bound State of Michigan;
has its advantages, but it has an ever chang
ing climate, damp and chilly. Illinois, with
its excellent and productive soil, is made up
principally of low level prairies. Hence, it
is prone •to fever and ague, and presents too
monotonous an appearance, to please the eye
of a Pennamite. Wisconsin has a good soil,
and plenty of excellent timber in the'north
ern part of the State. Its inhabitants are
principally New Englanders, Norwegians,
and a good sprinkling of Dutch, in the towns
and cities, Who gain their living by making
and selling "Lager Bier." . Wisconsin Is a
fine, State; but the winters are too long and
cold to please our Pennsylvania friends, who
generally — think they have winter enough at
home. lowals on about the same parallel
of latitude with Pennsylvania, therefore, there
is not so much difference in the climate, ex
cepting that produced by the ever prevailing
winds of the western country. The prairies
of lowa are moderately rolling, presenting a
beautifully undulated appearance. Although
timber is scarce, there are many fine groves
of young timber, sufficient to supply the far
mer with fuel and fencing. The interior of
the State abounds in coal, and many fine
banks have been opened up this fall.
The extensive grants of Public Lands,
made by Congress, to the State, for Railroad
purposes, and the consequent withdrawal of
the principal portion of .the Public Lands
from the market, have caused a rapid advance
in the price of land. Prairie land can be
bought in the inferior of the State, at from
fiur to eight dollars,per acre, improved farms
from fifteen to twenty dollars per acre.—
Prairie.land within twenty miles of the Mis
sissippi river, sells at from twelve to eighteen
dollars per acre. Improved farms within the
same limits, are worth from twenty-five to
forty dollars per acre, those within three or
four miles of large river towns, are held at
from sixty to one hundred dollars per acre,
and upwards. We have been asked, "would
it be advisable to take household furniture to
the west," we answer no, nothing, except
bedding and carpeting. Cabinet ware, stoves,
tin ware and store goods, are sold in Dubuque,
Davenport, and other river towns, about as
cheap-as in Huntingdon county. Don't move
your family west, unless you have a place
prepared to receive them. Houses are very
scarce here, rents very high, and Hotel keep
ers know how to charge. .Horses and cattle
arc very high here, but judging from the re
cent extensive importation of horses, we con
clude that the prices must come down.
We have been asked by young men, "would
you advise me to go west ?" Yes! if you are
a farmer, or have a good trade, as House
builder, Blacksmith, &e.; if you have a few
"rocks" to invest, so much the better ; a few
hundred dollars judiciously invested here,
will, in all probability,- make more money
than you can by "hard knocks." Don't come
here with just money enough to pay your
way, and no trade, expecting to get situations
as clerks in stores and offices; the country is
flooded with young men of this kidney—bet
ter'stay with your friends, as friendship is a
rarity here; money is the magic, and he is
unfortunate indeed, who is without it. All
kinds of domestic produce, except wheat and
corn is high. Wheat is selling at' i 0 cts. per
bushel; Corn 25 cts.; Potatoes $1,00; Tur
nips
40 . cts.; Onions $l,OO ; Butter 35 cts. per
lb.; Eggs per dozen, 30 cents, and every thing
else proportionately high: Boarding is from .
$3,50 to $4,00 per week. The farmer is reap
ing a rich reward for his labor. These high
prices are not attributable to short crops, (the
crop this season was considered a fair one,)
but to the immense influx of population,
causing the consumers to far out number the
producers. We now hope we have in some
degree at least, complied with the wishes of
our friends. Our next epistle will most like
ly be dated at Omahe, Nebraska, when we
will endeavor to give something of interest
from that far famed land of promise. 0.

From the New Orleans Delta.
THE NEWS PROM NICARAGUA.
The Blue-Grey Eye Seeth Smoke
We publish to-day the news from Califor
nia and Nicaragua, received by telegraph
from the Ba,lize ' embodying several details
of the progress of affairs in the latter coun
try, especially worthy of the immediate atten
tion of the American people.
William Walker has been met by greater'
odds than any, of us expected just now, and
William Marcy may be aware'of the cause;
the odds were nothing; the steady rifle and
inevitable bowie-knife, as usual, were every
thing ; And so wd have the agreeable duty, of
recordinc , three victories on land and one on
sea. The blue-grey eye apparently sees the
end very clearly, and the spirit of an ex-edi
tor of a New Orleans paper moves rapidly to
its goal.
Paul Jones is "not dead, bufliveth." He
is afloat in a little schooner off the Nicaragu
an shore. When he leaped from his birth
place in Carse Thorn, he may not have
known—that Celtic adventurer—that many
would arise and follow his example. He
"leaped on. the deck of Destiny," and the
terrible vessel bore him well. But the little
Nicaraguan schooner has a "deck of DeStiny,"
too, and once more the American people are
face to face with an enemy On the waves, or
rather have been face to face with an enemy,
and whipped him.
We favor no sickly sentiment of ultra:
Americanism ; we despise the crotchets of
the extremists who forget that foreigners take
a prominent and honorable part _in most of
our battles ; but we think that William
Walker, hit or miss, win or lose in future—
is a man of whoni any nation may be proud.
Who would believe from the beginning at.
Rivas, with the original fifty-six men of the
Vesta—that the commander of the little craft;
the Vi-king of a dangerous and almost im
possible adventure, would become in a short
time the President of Nicaragua, set a war
vessel on the water, and in six hasty battles
annihilate some three thousand of his foes!?
The thing appears incredible ; and yet our
telegraphic despatches establish its existence.
Walker's reinforcements from this city ar
rived in good time. He acted promptly on
their arrival. His movements were as pre
cipitate as when he rapidly marched (a forced
march) from Massaya to Granada, and de-,
feated the enemy in the very flush and intoxi
cation of their enthusiasm. It is evident
that neither time nor powder was lost. The
events followed each other quickly; and the
man who marched at their head must be fully
equal to the exigencies of his mission. A
silent inanbut prompt to strike ; one of the
men who say in their inmost hearts—
"Noise befits nor camp nor ball—
Eagles soar on silent feather;
Proud sight!
Left, right!
Steady, boys, arid step together!
And so Granada is burned ! The catastro
phe can't be helped. Walker has to win,
and it is not 'for us at a distance to judge
how.
We must await events, and our present
impression is that 'William Walker regulates
the aforesaid events in Nicaragua to some
extent. So we pause on a few more battles
—believing in the blue-grey eye! •
