We trust the good-work will go on-,-until-the Augean stable is effectually cleansed from federal corruption. "Burns ,, —No 3, shall appear next week. |Uj“Thc town of Adelphi, in Indiana, was nearly destroyed by fire on the 20th ult. |C7»„We hardly think it necessary to re ply at length to the charges and insinuations of the Herald against Mr. Eby. It is suffi cient to observe, that if those charges, &c. were endorsed by the Managers or any oth er respectable and responsible individuals, we have no doubt that Mr. E. would be able and willing at once to prove their-'falsity; but emanating from the source they, do, any notice from him would be altogether super fluous: ■ We will only remark in justice to that individual, and we are prepared to sub stantiate our. assertion,-that the charges of " insolence , &c. to the Managers, brought against him, are false and without the sha dow of foundation. ’Tis true that he has, ns. every freeman should, when the subject; was introduced, expressed his political pre ferences; but-that he “assailed” the Board Of Managers in' the “coarsest and grossest” manner,—or that he was "insolent!’ arid “overbearing” to “Managers, Engineers, Stockholders, and. persons having business, with' the company,” is untrue in every re spect-, We shall say nothing more at pre sent',.but, if heed be, we shall advert to the subject next week. A Masterly J?e/rea£<—-The Tennessee Sentinel has the following reference to;the admirable escape, of the “flying phenome non.” L 1 ‘-‘The Harrisburg Keystone. states that Mr. Penrose, the federal.Speaker.of thcSe- Sate, in effecting his retreat from the Senate Chamber; On the first day; of the ’session,' jumped out of it windowjwehefeet high, through three thorn bushes'/and over a seven foot picket’fence!!! Whatever may be thought of Mr. Penrose’s courage, there can be no dispute about his activity, Hervould be an invaluable acquisition tp ahdwe advise.him to turn his attention that k vviiy, as it is evident that his 'eareer as a pol itician. is about closing, . J- fcSP»The, Branch Bank of the State of Al abama has a Hand tune suspended specie fiyments. , jv |C7»A bill has passed the'Senate of Ohio,, by a vote of 17 t.q 15, to prohibit the. estab lishment of any agency,-or branch'; of. the U, S. Bank of Pennsylvania, in that common-., wealth. About one year ago, a federal leg islature repealed ai similar act, in order to Biddle an,opportunity to car ry on his wholesale gambling policy in the very heart pf one of the most prosperous and thriving states in the Union, and thereby to paralyze the industry of her people, by in viting hordes of gambling speculators mongst them to eat put their substance. But federalism had ifsday, and that young and vigorous, commonwealth now stands untram melled and uncorrupted as an abiding mon ument of the virtue and intelligence of her people. George IF. Dixon. —This notorious scoun drel, who figured several years ago in this borough and elsewhere aaa great VGumbo Chaff” singer, has lately caused much ex citement in New York, by libelling respect, able citizens through the columns of a small paper under his control. Having been in dicted in 18, cases, he was required to give bail in the sum of 818,000. Mrs. Miller, a courtezan of the city, went his bail; blit a few days after surrendered his body to the proper officers, and he is now in durance vile. Col. Johnson*—A Kentucky paper says: “Col. R. M. Johnson will not be. a candidate for re-election as, Vice President. Rumor states that his friends have prevailed upon him to offer for the next Governor of Ken tucky.” In the event of Cbl.'lL declining,! the Washington “Metropolitan” - urges~lhe nomination of the' Hon. James Buchanan. : ICT’Henby Clay has turnedsmtkzrtom meriet in the Senate, and has came out full blast against the Abolitionists. Chamelion like, he can change his principles to suit any. tiling’. What will the abolitionists of the East now think of him, whom but yesterday they landed to the skies? Hail Road to Pittsburg. —A public meett of the citizens of Pittsburg took place on Friday week, for the purpose of taking, measures to secure the construction of the Rail Road from Chambersburg to Pittsburgh gQ° , 'l 99,025 hogs were slaughtered at Cincinnati, during the past season. Messrs. Editors;—A writer in the last Herald, with more zeal than prudence, has undertaken tef'justify the Managers of the Cumberland Valley Rail Road in their ex pulsion from office of Messrs. Angncy and Eby, and argues, that, because. Gov. Porter and the Canal Commissioners have, accord ing to the invariable-practice of all their pre decessors, removed - theiT“polittcal enemies" from office and supplied their places with democratic citizens, therefore the Managers of the Railroad, according to the same prin ciple, ought to remove every democrat from office over whom they have control. This kind of logic might answer very well, if the road was constructed by, and exclusively for the. use of, the federalists; but until this is made apparent, their, system of proscrip tion-must of necessity be looked upon as al together unjustifiable. If the'principle be good, the Managers ought to carry it out, and not only exclude their political oppo nents from office, but also prevent any of them from travelling.,onthe road or forward ing; their produce to market by this means of conveyance. But did the Legislature, when the act for incorporating the company was passed, intend that the road should be for the accommodation of one particular po !HpSa| party'iouhc exclpsionof all others, or waks^intendeintgvthe benefit of the public gene rally?-—"The re can be,but one reply to this_interrogatory.' If,’then, the road was intended to be, constructed for the benefit of the community at Jarge, without regard to the political sentiments of the people, I ask by whatfautbofity have the Managers sp far departed from the intension of the Legisla ture, as to make the whole concern a mere party machine to be brought into subservi ency to the interests of. a few unprincipled political demagogues?,, It- is due -to them selves, as managers; to-the stockholders, who are deeply interested in the character of the road; and to the community at large, to sat isfy the public mind oh this subject. If the road is -to be a political it be so—if not, thp public mind should be disabused in relation thereto. - Ons or tbs Stocsuosdeiui.
