Yorsn People’s Book; or Maoaklxe of
Useful and Entertaining Ksowuuob"—is the
title of a beautifully printed little monthly, published by
Morion McMiehael. Esq., 57 south Third street, Phila
delphia, and edited by John Frost, A. M. Each num-
Ikjt will contain thirty-twupages, with embellishments,
nnd the work will be furnished to subscribers at the .
low rate of per annum. From a hasty glance nl
the first number, wc are disposed to think the Magazine
will be cmimnlly useful in directing tho minds ,of
yoting people,"of both sexes, lo the proper sources for
obtaining literary as well as useful knd-ylgdgc. The
reading matter of the number before us, is entirely
original, and of the eery beijf kind for youth, and there
is no doubt hut ihat the talented editor will make each
succeeding number still more entertaining*
Or7■GRAHAM’S MAGAZINE, for Octobei, is a
capital number. In addition to its reading matter,
which is of the very best kind, it contains the following
embellishments, viz: “Tun Brother and Sister”—
“Descent into the Vallf.t op WrourNo”—“Em
_.|UlO_rT>Ejn.T*’—“Co,EO_TlE.D-d?IX.OVtEILS-W“TIIE.MftNT-U-r

altogether, tho October number, in our opimpn, is one
of the very best lhalhns yet issued from the press.
Dnr. <hfpl ArcTnKxr.— A dreadful accident occur
red on the Railroad, about half'a mile below town,
on Sunday last. Tlic circumstances, as near as we |
can ascertain them, arc these:—An old man by tho I
name of Stbiwmitt:, a pauper at tba Poor House,
had been in town that morning, and on bis return, |
walking along the track, was overtaken by the train of;
cars, and literally crushed to picce&Jpis feet were
cut off, his right arm, his scull brokcUMnto fragments,
and his body mashed to a jelly !
?th>
“WhcthVflinyblame really attaches to the Engineer)
we arc unable to say—although the Coroner's Jury
which held an inquest on the body,- and examined
some evidence on the subject, were,* wo understand,
unanimously of opinion, and so rendered their verdict,
that he came to his death through the carelessness of
the Engineer.. A Justice's Jury which was first held,
(illegally, as it afterwards turned out to be,) came to
a somewhat different conclusion, and did not attach
any blame to the Engineer.
Tha story of the Engineer, is, wc learn, that the old
man was seated, on apiece of timber about three. or
four feet from the track, and that, just as the loco
motive approached within a short distance of him, ho
rose, and, in the act of rising, stumbled and fell on the
track. . *
' The general impression is, however, that the de
ceased was walking between the tails, and, bring very
deaf, did not hear the cats approach. The. Engineer,
“supposing that he would leave the track in time,'did
not think it necessary to hold up, until it was too late
•-end that before, the speed of the Engine could be
sufficiently checked., to admit any one to jump off to
his fescue, he was caughttsnd the dreadful accident
occurred. -
How the facta ore, it is hot for us to say positively.
The accident, however, should serve os a caution to
people against walking on the track 0/ the Railroad at
the rime the cars are about approaching—end particu
larly those who ore hard of hearing.
dj*ludge Prrnr is the Democratic.candidate for
Congress, in Philadelphia, to supply the vacancy occa
g;oned by the resignation of Mr. Sergeant The Whigs
hove not yet succeeded in getting a candidate who is
- willing to run lhe risk of being defeated. -

Those who arc in’ favor of PROSCRIBING tbo

Those who arfi in favor of frittering away the pub-

QCj’Fcllow Citizens of Cumberland County! On
nb\t Tuesday week you will have on important duty
to perform at the ballot boxes. Arc you making the
necessary preparations to do your duty faithfully and
fearlessly, as patriots and as freemen'! Have you been
talking to your neighbors, and urging them to turn out
to the polls 7 If you have—;-ouf appeal is unnecessary.
If you have not—then wto Urge you, as you love your
good old Commonwealth—as -you appreciate the rich
boon of constitutional liberty transmitted to you by
your forc-fathcrs, to set about the good work without
delay. The election is just at hand. You have not a
moment to spare—and if you Would continue frt o non,
: be vigilant and active in the discharge of your duty.
It is a noble cause in which you arc engaged, Demo
crats! You have a gallant leader, in the person of
your patriotic Chief Magistrate, to direct you to victory.
Prove yourselves worthy of him. He has, with iron
nerve ami heart of steel, placed himself in the breach
between the people, and their would-be tyrants and op
pressors—can you desert him, now that the furies of
Federalism are let loose upon him! Will it bo saidi
that he, like another Curtius, perished to save his
country! You stood by the gallant Jackson in his
conflicts with the Monster, and nobly sustained tho old
Chief against nil tho assaults of the mercenary legions
.of the Bunk Aristocracy—and can yon now be luke
warm or inactive, when the same monied power is at
work to prostrate a tried public servant, who has more
_of tlifl-moraLcouragcLof - that-old-Romau-l rr hia-compo=*
sition, than any other man now upon tho stage of
action!. We know, Democrats of Cumberland county,
you cannot bo passive spectators of such a mighty con
flict we know you cannot stand tamely
by, and see your dearest rights placed in Jeopardy,—
Then marshal your forces for the contest without a
moment’s delay. Scour every nook And comer of
your respective boroughs and .townships. Urge yoUr
.fellow-citizens to tho polls,, and let not a single friend
of Governor Pout e a bo left at home on the' Second

Ihlytcfbc gained—button the contrary, much to lose—
by voting only a part of the ticket. The men on it are
all competent and deserving—much more so than their
opponents on the Federal ticket—and it becomes us
one and all, in view of the Important interests at stake,
any local feeling, or personal prejudice we
may entertain against any of the candidates, and yield
the WHOLE TICKET a cordial and energetic sup

Again, then, we urge you to a faithful, zealous, end
.vigorous discharge of your duty, from now to the close
of the polls on the evening of the election.
tinware of Spnrlous Tickets!
Wo would thus early caution our Democratic friends'
throughout the county. to be on their guard against
spurious rickets. We have reason to believe that the
Federalists will catty on a bold game of this sort at the
ensuing election, in order, if possible, to elect a portion
ofthrir ticket They well know they can effect noth
ing by a (air and open system of. operations—hence
they resort to any means which can promise them the
least hope of success. We trust, therefore,, that our
Democratic friends, one and all, will examine well their
tickets before depositing them in the ballot-boxes, and
see that the proper names are on them, and that they
are correctly spelled: ]
Banks has'nt resigned his Judgahip yet
—nor won't either, John has no notion of letting Govct
nof~PonT*B',,have ah opportunity of supplying his
place, either before or after.the election!
Qj’The new Postmaster, Captain Porter, has aban
doned tire Herald concern. The editorial department
is, we understand, to bo under the control of 8. Dns
ur Anaiu, Esq,—atlesst for a time. ■
Let our Democratic friends remember that the next I
Legislature will have the important duty to perform of
arranging the State into Congressional* Senatorial, end
Representative 'Districts.', How important .then is it,
that we should carry our candidate for Governor;, and
have a republican majority in both’branches -of the
Legislature!' We all know, and have felt, the infa
mous gerrymandering process of 1836, under- the first
year of the Ritner dynasty, the present Sen
atorial and Representative districtajiave been arranged,
and how milch the'public will has been stifled by it.—
But bad as the apportionment of '1836 is, it will not
compare in injustice and inequality with the one which
may bo expected, should the same Federal Aritiinftsonic
party igain get the ascendency. •’ Should such a mis*;
fortune unfortunately occur, the Democrats of Cumber-,
land may expect to have their voice smothered by the
Antimosonry of Dauphin, or the Federalism of Lon
caster~and the Districts will be so arranged as that
the Federalists always be able, to elect'a 'majority
to Congress, and’to the Slate Legislature 1
We hope ourrDomocralic friends will think, well on
these things—and act accordingly. .“ An .ounct of pre
vention is worth a pound of cure,” pnd it becomes*
every man of us to from now"to the
election, hrordcr to secure, nofonly the election of our;
candidates for the lower House, but also our candidates
for the denote. •
For ourselves we concur iu the opinion that this
heinous charge should in common justice be proved or
in common decency be stopped. The Bank of the U.
States was chartered by the federalists—-it has- been |
managed by the federalists and ruined-by the fedcral
iste. It is in their handss thcy havc the rccorJs of-all 1

WHAT DO THE PEOPLE THINK OF
JOSEPH iUTNER 1 " s
Tliis man who disgraced the .State of Pennsylvania,
emmcnt, or he will destroy the man and the party.—
Is evidence wanting of thlsl Look at his recent nets.
When he found that Gen, Harrison would not make
him Post Master General, then he said he would have
no ollicc—he would leave politics—and he became
dissatisfied with the General Administration.. As soon
as the President was dead, and Tyler began his ad-
he makes a second appeal to him for an
official situation. Ho'again was foiled, and what was
the result? He at once nominates Gen, Scott for the
.Presidency, in 1844. Thinking to intimidate Mr.
Tyler, the Chronicle and Telegraph of this place,
two papers owned and conducted by Stevens, arc at
once out for Scotland place his name at the head of
their columns. T\\e Lancaster Examiner-enii Geifys•
burg Star , two other of hi? papers, follow in the wake.
You next see him in the field, self-nominated, as a
candidate for the-Lcgtslaturc; although in 1839 lie hod,
in a letter addressed to his 'constituents, in Adams
county, told them that he would never again con

The question is now presented to the Freemen of
Pennsylvania, whether DAVID R, PORTifk or
THADDEUS STEVENS shall be the next

ijJ-THe following from the Boston Post, “defines
the position” of the Federal party, perhaps, aa near as
can bo done at the present writing s— , .
“A prominent Democrat, in Washington, last week
asked an equally prominent Whig, in a good-humored
way— “ How are you getting along now*ddysl” r “I
dui hardly tell,” said the Whig, “for the Eord haa got
our President, [Harrison] the Locos our Vice Presi
dent, [Tyler] and 1 believe the Devil will have the rest
eftts!”
Wo invite-attention to the following article which U
copied from tho Keystone, in relation to the villainous
slander of the Federal press in relation to Gov. Pon
teh and tho defunct U. 8. Bank. It most effectually
pins this Federal falsehood to the counter, and ought
to mantle with shamo the checks of those who have
assisted in propagating it. Dyt that any of the editors
will havo tho magnanimity to acknowledge the slander,
is more than can bo expected. They aro so accustomed
to that vile system of electioneering-—<o reckless and
unprincipled in all their political movements, that false*
hood and rascality 'have become as it were, a second
nature to them, and they could not, if they would, act
tho part of honest men.
THE $90,000 SLAJVDER!
The ‘‘Athens Scribe,” a whig paper published in
Susquehanna county, containable following paragraph:
“The Telegraph and other papers at Harrisburg,
weekly assert tliu following in substance:'*
“David R> Porter received for signing tho suspension
resolutions, $99,000 from tho United States Bank.”'
• The “Register,” another whig paper, printed in Sus
quehanna county, says in relation to the above us fo>
lows: * >
“Tlicro.arc more friends of John Bonks than one in
this section who wish tho truth of the above charges to
be proved beyond tho power of cavil, or the story drop
ped.”
The last Herald, with its characteristic falsity, talks
about a letter said to have been written by Col. Hugh
Lindsay, of Berks county, of whom our readers hoard
something during the FfesidcnUal campaign, in which
he says some hard things of Governor Porter,
The lost Reading Democratic Press, published in
Berks couhty, enables us most effectually to contradict
this falsehood. The Press states, that instead of -him
being hostile to the Governor, the Colonel is one of his
warmest and most decided friends in the whole county,
and that he is exerting all his influence in behalf of the
whole Democratic ticket*
. The Press’informs us further, v and if it will be any
consolation to "the Herald clique, they can have the full
benefit of the prediction, that, under no circumstances,
will Governor Porter’s majority in Berks county be
less than four thousand —and may, very possibly, reach
‘FIVE THOUSAND!
The last Herald indulges in pathetic appeals to the
“faithful,” ,to turn out at the election, and vote the
whole Federal* Ticket. It is;very evident that the Sarah Boyer, wife of William Boyer, North

his promise in not giving the said John an office. —
This is the aame. John Jf..Davis who. vraa,removed
from office some two years ago, by President Van Bu
reo, on account, if we mistake, not, of his, ineompetency
and intemperate habits, and who then denounced Mr*
Van Bttten aa much tor *at ach aa.he now does-Gov.
amor Porter for haviDg rthmed to give him an office
after his expulsion by the President. A easeful pent*
•al of Davis’ letter, u it i> pnbliehed in the Federal
papers, will satisfy every one that Gov. Porter, was
right in refusing to give hip a responsible office, oven,
although, which wo very much doubt, he had at any
time promised him one. ,
j Courzction. — A “Voter,” whose communication
appeared in the last Volunteer, was misinformed in re
gard to SamUel Given’s eligibility. \Vb have since
ascertained that his father, old Mr. Given, was a natu
ralized citizen, and, of course, bis son is eligible to any
office.. We make this correction with pleasure, as wo
arc always willing to do justice to every man,.no mat

editor comes up to such a cohclusion, we inform them
that he sets down a majority of 200 in Cumberland
county for Banks P! The fellow must certainly be dc
raented;—for no man in his right mind, Democrat dr
Federalist, ever dreamed of John Banks coming with
in 600 votes of Governor Porter in this county, let
alone beating him. The idea of the Federal candidate
having a majority in Cumberland county, is preposter

Pain bu Weakness.—*ln all eases of’pain or weak
ness, whether it be chronic or recent—whether it be
deafness, or pain in the side—whether it orise from
constitutional, or from some immediate caused—wheth
er it be from internal or external injury, it will be cur
ed by persevering, in the use of Brandreth’s Vegetable
Universal Pills —because purging with these Pifls
those humors from tho-body is the true cure for all
, these complaints and every other form of disease.—
This is no mere assertion, it is a demonstable truth,
and each day it is extending Itself for and wide—it is
> becoming known and more and. more appreciated.
When constant exercise cannot bo used, from any
cause, tho occasional use of opening medicine*, such
1 an oho as Brandrelh's Vegetable Universal Pill* , is
. absolutely required. Thus the conduits of the Blood,
; the fountain of life, arc kept free from those impurities
which would prevent its steady current ministering to
j health. Thus morbid humors arc prevented from bc
| coming mixed with it. It is nature which is thus
assisted through the means and outlets which she has
; provided for herself.
