Mr. Slorrelt, we are pleased to learn, is now on a fair way of recovery. Wo have heard of no other coses in this county, and it may be proper to add that both these had their origin in Harrisburg. We would,,however, urge alt who have neglected it thus far, to lose no, time in having themselves and their children vaccinated, and thus be prepared for this dreaded disease should U spread over the com inanity! • ; '• School, Tax.— The citizens of this Borough deci ded on Tuesday last, by a nearly unanimous vote, that an additional lax of 62000, (the sum asked for by the Directors,) should bo raifted for school purpo ses the ensuing school year.. 03*The Perry Standard has been discontinued, and its list of subscribers transfered to the old organ of the party, the Perry County Democrat.

The Democratic National Contention meets at Baltimore on theji2d iof llua_ montijH Who iho nom inee Tor ; President will that whean eco and learn,'Gon. CASB, nt prbscnt lhe Senator from jUichiganf wtU bo thefraan. The name of General (tyss is furoiJUi to.every American—:he is o, of the yery first,class,'who lias served his country , in. the; tented/field, at a- foreign .court, ai .nd in tho councils of the nation, with honor to limeolf and credit to his country. But, we uro not about to give a-history of tho character of Geh* C, at this limo. Should ho rccoivoiho nomination hy tho National Contention* It will glee ns great pica, sure to lay before our readers a review of his pnpt life and services. Tho twenty-sixdelegates from this Slate*lb the Naliprttil Convention, will of course; vole foriyir.Bu ciian'ln, • in. accordance, with tlioir'instructions.— And the; will, in* good failh/we doubt-not, continue to vote for' him so long as they have the Uati hope of success. Tho claims of our State, beyond all ques tion, are as strong,, if not stronger, than any otherin the;Union, and..the candidate she now presents, as her first choice, is o. m’an whose brilliant career has wobrfSr him tho confidence and respect of the demo* cracy of the entire Union. The delegates from this Slate, therefore, should, as wo trust they will, con tinue to vote for James Buchanan si) long as they consider it prudent to do so, and thus carry out their instructions to tho letter. If they discover, however, that (hey cannot, succeed with Mr. Buchanan, their next duty to,the democracy of Pennsylvania, will be to vote for that fearless and intrepid Democrat, Geo. il, Dallas— of. .iron-nerve, who has never flinched in any emergency—a man beloved by the democracy .of his naliye Stale; and who, like Mr. Buchanan, would carry this State.by 30,000 majority. : ' ■ ' ’' The duty ofotlf delegates (o the National Conven tion, therefore, will bo to carry out their instructions, andr’Vqto for Mt.-Buchanan, and use oyery.honoriible effort to secure his nomination. If they-fail with Mr. 0., they should llion urge, with tho same unani mity, tho claims uf Mr. , Dallas, end procure his nomination if they can. Should llio delegates from Pennsylvania fail of success with both our favorites, then they are ol full liberty to Cast tho vote of the Stale far any one of tho other eminent statesmen whoso names will be brought before the Convention. So far.us we are concerned; wo have little feeling on this subject.* We shall.givo our hearty, zealous, and.most enthusiastic support to the. nominee of the Baltimore National Convention, whether he be Bu chanan, Dallas, Cass, or that statesman of giant in tellect, Levi Woodbury. Wo, in common with every Pennsylvanian, have our feelings of State pride, and should bo rejoiced to place (he name of Buchanan or Dallas at our mast-head as the candidate of the.de mocracy of the nation for .Presidents But, “princi ples, not men,”'is and shall ever continue to bo our motto, and we feel safe in saying that the nominee of the Democratic National Convention, whoever he may be, will carry Pennsylvania by.from fifteen to twenty thousand majority. Wo care not a straw who the Federalists may select as (heir candidate, he cannot receive tho vote of the old Keystone. ■ VIRGINIA ELECTION, ■ An election fur members of tho Legislature took place in this Stale on lhe26lli.of April. Wo make up from the Richmond papers a synopsis of.the rc. turns, us farms received:—Senate, democratic gain 2; House, do. do., 8 ; Senate, whig gain I { House, do, do., 3; not democratic gain 6. . The' whigs lose the Senators in the Buckingham and Jefferson dis. trlcts, and have gained the Senator in tho Accomac district. . From the above there can bo little doubt but that the Democrats have carried tho 'State by a sweeping majority. Last year the Federalists had a majority in the House. .Particulars neXt.wcek. Yes, we have people among us, in the U. States, who want revolutions! We have.had those among us wlio have attempted' revolutions; who have ban ded together in fierce factions, longing for tumult,— who have snatched up arms, and. been willing, nay, to appearance, furiously anxious to shed blood. North American, . ■ True enough. But who were'the men, and. to what party did (hoy belong who “ snatched ujyirms and were.anxious to shed blood?" Bet the reader refer hack to the closing scenes of the corrupt ad ministration of Joseph Rilner, and the question will bo answered. When the Federalists of this State* backed by a venal Governor and corrupt cabinet, at tempted “ to treat the election as ifithad never been held," and summoned armed troops with " buckshot and bull" to tho capital, tho Inference was strong that that party were ready and willing to sited blood for the purpose of carrying out their damnable designs, and would have done so had not their cowardly hearts failed them. , “No Proscription!"—This is the groat cry of the Whigs,’although they practice “Proscription" more unrelentingly than any other party known.* In New York they are now descending to tho smallest details in proscription. Having a small majority tn tho City Councils, they have just passed % law placing, in tho haqds of the Common Council the power ofoppoint. ing the undcr-clorks of tho different departments heretofore vested In the heads of those departments. This if, of course, to give them a few more voles at tho next election. - . Tub Tan lUoijurnt Bill.— lt is now thought that the ton regiment bill will .pass the House. Tho recent unfavorable newt from Mexico as to the rati, fiedtion of the treaty, deprives the opposition of the pretence or excuse that the men were no longer wanted. This was the ground taken when tho trea ty was the Senate. ' Grn. Cass in Illinois.— The Democratic Stale Convention of Illinois, has rdnominaled the present Slate officers. Resolution* on (ho question of tho Presidency wore passed, which declare Gon. Cass as (ho first choice of tho democrats of 1 llinois fur the Presidency, and Levi* Woodbury the second. Queen's household costs the mournful denizens of mcirry England over 65, 000,000, a year J each of her children draws 6150,000, and King William's widow is a pensioner to the tune of a million, the public debt Is 65,000,000,000, and the yearly expenditures 6276,000,000.

Very well—although the answer is Just-no answer at all, wc will let it‘go for what it is’worth.- But, did these same Federal preachers—lbif they are—denounce the sin- ofrintonipcraiice, and tho fiard-cider. parades;of 1640? Not.they! And In 3844, when thatoxperlduelliat, Henry Cloy, whose 'hands were rod tvith s the blood ofhiyyellow.iTjen, was before tho people, did..we hear any thing like rebuke fall from the Ups of these preach ers who now denounce Mr.. : Polk 7 L Did they, then speak of the sin of duelling? -No, not a word;had they'to say. Ob the contrary, nearly every minister who now preaches against tho President and (he wnr t voted for Henry Clay in’lB44!

Still, we would not blame them so much, if in their attempts to prejudice'the . people against tho administration, they would sUeb4o the truth and dcal'in facts. - Cat.when wirheir a minis* (cr declare from (ho pulpit, that (he war. with Mexi. co is “unrighteous, wicked, and without cause," and that “the Americans were the first to shed blood upon Mexican soil," tho conclusion forces itself, upon us that the man who usen such language is cither,igno* rant of the subject ho attempts to discuss, or is a wiltul doliboralo falsifier. . - Every man, wo care not of what party ho belongs, regrets the present war, which we trust is about to terminate. Every good citizen wouldrejoice to hear that tho treaty of ponce won ratified—to hearthat the roar of cannon and Iho clangor of arms were to cease. But, to effect a peace, must we submit to disgrace, and suitor our go unrodrcsscH f Ner6r! Should the Mexican Congress tofuso, to ratify the treaty, as approved by ilie Senate of the United Slates, we hope to see bur government prompt In renewing vigorous hostilities. ' 4 There can be but little dodbt but that peade would have been declared long since had it pot been for the treasonable efforts of the friends and allies of Mexico in this country. Many sanguinary and hwd-fuughl battles—many valuable lives—much blood and trea sure would have been saved hod It not becri for the speeches of traitors in this country, whose sympathies were enlisted entirely for (he enemy, Mpjico was deceived—her people, (generally ignorant4bd easily imposed upon,) considered ft to bo thffpol|c| of their country to hom out, and reAise all offers 3or peace. They had the speeches of Clay, Wcbslcr. BoUa, Gallatin, Holme*) and other Federalists, translated and printed for distribution—and to show tneir great respect for these ** illustrious defenders of (be cause of Mexico," they were all elected honorary.memberfc of the Philanthropic Society of Mexico /" "No won der that deceived Mexico refused at an earlier day to treat for peace.. From the speeches of her friends in this country—Senators, members of Congress, min. isters, and others, she was led to believe that public opinion would force tho President to withdraw the American troops in disgrace from her soil without oven asking or expecting "indemnity for the past, and security for the future." Mexico has boon deceived— the men in this country, who, through treachery, de* sired to befriend her, have,proved v lo be her worst enemies, and tho fruit which they attempted ,to fur. nish Mexicans, though dazzling to their ey£s, turned to ashes on'their lips.

A few more bursts and tho poo* pie will loam wisdom, though they learn it at a dear school. ’ 03r So says tho honest and fearless Editor, Sam’l. Mf.dary, of the Ohio Statesman.

We think, however, that U will have ono good effect; /The British Government will certainly granl some con cessions.' John Bull is naturally obstinate, tiiough sensible and wary. What he refuses fo grant on the appearance of any attempt at compulsion; ho will of* ten yield to solicitation when hissigacity.tenuiies. him to make a virtue of necessity. • , tf\ .Groat Britain, alaimed at tho influx from Europe of.suspicious characters ripe for political excitement •of every sort, is about to.re-enact a portion of tlio.old Allen Act.' A suspected, foreigner will, in dense* qucnco, bo ordered to leave at.short notice. . This is peculiarly intended fur'tho latitude of Ireland, we suspect. The effect remains to bo seen. In Ireland, things remain as they were, Tho English.law.of treason is being extended to Ireland. This will make it felony to invite, in a public spocclj, tho Irish people to arms! We shall soon leurn which of tho Irish is courageous enough to run the fearful risk at a repetition of their past course will en tail upon them. . . * The Protestants in some directions are now unit ing with the Catholics for Repeal, and the people are arming to an enormous extent. The government ha«45,00U soldiers under arms in Ireland, and bar racks arc being erected at numerous points to secure (ho means of resisting all attempts at, rebellion.— Great disaffection, however; is spreading among the milUory,.and "Repeal" is rapidly becoming a more and more general outcry. Still, without external aid, Ireland enn do nothing, at presen t,‘by force.— What ’effect her altitude may exercise upon British legislation is: another question. Doubtless a good one.- 'v Franco remains inactive and tolerable tranquil.— Nothing new has taken place of. consequence. Lara, artino'soddress indicating that Franco will not assist Ireland or embroil herself with other nations, appear* to excite considerable confidence. Every means is 1 being employed to have thorough republicans elected to tho National Convention. Financial ms tiers are, of course, in a terrible slate. On tho wholu Franco is doing well and wisely. Wo trust sho will perse vere. The Danes'ond tho people of tho Dulchy of Hob stein have hud a serious battle. Tho latter hayo been defeated. The whole of continental Europe is still in a state ,of active ebullition;'and the probability is that when the disturbance subsides republicanism or constitutional will be the generally adopted forms of government. At this moment, Re publicanism seems to bo tho favorite., but wo do oot desire to bo tod sanguine in predicting Such a glori ous consbmaliun of tho hopes of philanthropy, From tho Public Lodger. XiATB FROM MEXICO# A further time aektdfor ihe-rat{ficatUin of the treaty —Mexicans expecting further modifications —Amer- ican Patrolfired upon in the city of Mexico—Charge of Murder againet Penntyltaniant, By special express from Now. Orleans wo have an extra Picayune of the 22d, which gives (he following intelligence from Mexico, from the city of Mexico to the 13th inst., and from Vera Cruz to the ICib inst. Tho Court of Inquiry has adjourned to the United Slqles. ' Special correspondence of the Picayune. City or Mexico, April 13,1848. II is reported oa the authority oi' Iho Pragrtiso, (ho ••Pure” paper, published at that Penny Pona has naked ih&l lour months be now allowed 1 him to obtain a ratification of the treaty. 1 cun learn of no other authority for the report, and am dis posed to doubt its truth; for if Pena y Pena la deal* roua of the. ratification of the treaty, his only pros pect of succeeding is by pressingtho subject upon Congress Immediate,ly. It is added, too, that the Mux* team* have great hopes of obtaining concessions and modifications of the treaty usupproved bylhu Senate of tho United Status, from our own Commissioner or Commissioners, and if they were to bo guided by the past, as 1 had occasion to observe in a former letter, 1 they would procrastinate negotiation, or continue the I war, in tho conviction Unit the more tho one was pro- 1 crnstiimtud, or the longer tho . other Was continued, 1 tho greater would bo weir ultimata advantage. 1 > have, however, strong hlpos that neither Mr. Suvicr, I 1 or Mr, Clifford will por Kentucky Regiment, the name of Clio commander of which I have been una ble to learn, and a company of Marines, under Copt, I Henderson, were ordered out, These forces having arrived on the ground, forty or fifty armed horsemen wore met, who sucrolioglhcmsclvcs in ai)dh>bouttho| bull pen, kept up a fire upon our troops for nearly ah 1 hour. Several shots wore also fired from the lops of the houses in (he vicinity) end (wo riflemen were so- 1 verely Wounded. , ; ( 1 Owing to (he darkness of the night, end the fear that our troops might Accidently shoot one another, their Are was not effective, and but (woof tho Mexi-i i cans were killed. A few were taken prisoners, and houses In tho neSghboxhoud wore searched, and arms found in them captured. During (bo latter part of the fight a firing was heard towards tho Al)einodo,tn Hi* opposite quarter of tho city, and Lieut. Russel started in the direction from which it was hoard, but on redohii\(r the spol .no one was to 1»q found. The horsemen thalwera soon ul the bull pen wore rogu-. I«rly armed as guerrillas or cavalry, with lonoos, os. oopoUcs and pistols, and it was supposed (he object was to break the armistice,, The firing at the Alle. mede was, it is thought, for tho purpose of drawing attention that Way; and by weakening our forces ut the bull pen to enable the Mexicans there load with more boldness and effect. The parties ecsmpd of the murtlfr : ,of Manuel To. rillo and of the attempted burglaVyt|f the house in casion. .U.IUIII . Tho court of Inquiry, U is now confidently said, will adjourn about tho middle of next weokj and will proceed Immediately to tho United States to prose cute the,investigation. , . D. S. - LATER, FROM MEXICdi From tho Plcaydno of llic 23d till;; wb Have re ceived later news from Mexico. In speaking of the shocking murder committed in the city of Mekico; the correspondent of that paper soya : . - At ah early hour the next morning, Gov. Smith; having been informed hf tho murdcf and attempt to rob, ordered Liool. Russel, of the Rifles; and Lieut. Black; of the Tlh Infantry, the former chief of policb in tho Palace, and tho.latter bis assistant; to make search for the parties wbom depositions hod been made. This they succeeded in admirably, and to-day they had six out of seven in ifons; VVlmt caused (he dnustial excitement wdv, that two of the accused are officers of the Pennsylvania volunteers, one Lieut. Hare and the other Lieut. Dutton.. Lieut. 1 Hare lias been arrested, but Lieut. Dutton is still at large. The following are tho names of the remain der of tho party:—Jesso Armstrong, 0 discharged leambtcr; John D. Hollister, an American citizen; John Wall, private,Co. E.7th Infantry; B. F. Wmgg, sbr’gt. 7lh Infantry; and John Laveily, an American citizen. Hollister and Laveily arc gamblers, a spe dies of scoundrels with which the city is infested.— I am averse to witnessing the degradation or morti fication of a fellow being, but being with Lioutonaril Russel at the lime he ordered Hare to bu pm iu irons, at his .invitation 1 accompanied him to the room in the Palace in which the prison is Confined. He has a wound in Uiu arm, supposed to have been given by one of the shots of the dork, and with his uhn in jj sling, the handcuffs were fastened on him, and his logs bound together with a fchulri. ; A gentleman who was once on terms of intimacy with-him; happened to be with us, and as we wore leaving the room ho Begged tho gentleman to exer cise his influence with tho press of the city not to have his name mentioned in connection with, the affair until an Investigation cbuld be had. Ashe made this request he could scarcely refrain from shedding tears, and our sympathies were increased by tho reputation he had acquired in the battles of the valley. For his gallantry in those battles his company presented him with a sword shortly after the arifiy entered tho city. If ho be guilty though, and with such degrading associates, licilhcr Ills bra very nor position should shield him. A correspondent of tho Crescent says t ' Their (rial will take plaoo on Monday next, tho 10th uIU. and for the honor of the army, if proved guilty, should bo hung in Iho Main Plaza. Robbery soems to be the order of (ho day just now. A few evenings ago a party of soldiers houdod by a man in an officer's dress, went to tho hacienda of San Anto nio, under pretext of searching for deserters, and de manded entrance in the name of the United Stator. Of course the doors (vere opened, and tho protended soldiers proceeded at once to rob the place.of every tiling valuable. There is scarcely a smalt village ( near here that has not suffered more or less within the last two weeks from depredations of this kind, commuted either by-Amoricansor Mexicans. . Many soldiers have recently deserted from our army, end have taken to robbing for a living., 1 can trace this bad conduct on the.part, of some belonging to the army to nothing but (liu insatiable appetite for ga ining that exists in this city. Men lose their money, lose their credit, and self respect soon follows. Then (0 replenish their packets some of them will stoop to almost anything. Several small burglaries have taken place in the city of Mexico. Tho publication office of the North American was robbed, amongst others. ' This Inst j robbery must have been perpetrated by Mexicans, us u, robbery of a newspaper office could scarcely have [ entered the head of uh American. . Opinion* lunching ,lhe ratification of Iho Trebly are as contradictory aa usual. A quorum of Congress had not yet ruachud the city. Wo make Iho follow* ing extract from on article in (ho Fruo American, of iho Idlli iust. s “Wo had occasion. yesterday (o converse with a , respectable gentleman who has just arrived from tho city of Mexico. Ho is u Mexican, and is in favor of peuco, but says that tho members of Congress will not vote for tho treaty ua It now sUndsi.thal he has hoard many of thorn express Ihoir opinions on (ho . subject, and that they all seem to ogroo (hat they have not Iho power to cede my portion of tho ter. itory belonging to tho Republic. Doing this, they think, would be violating the Federal Constitutionof Mexico. They would be willing to pay tho expenses of the war. ‘ ' They are also willing to abandon Ihoir pretensions to the ownership of Texas, provided Iho demarca* lion of the boundary line ho loft to commissioners to be appointed by each government. . In our opinion, if this statement bo true, and wo believe it Is—U shows plainly that the Mexioanshave again made an abuse of the good faith of the Amer ican government. 1 * . Brigadier General CadwolUder had resigned his commission, end left Iho oily of Mexico on his way homo, Mr. Trist had also loft tho oily under an escort on his way to the United Stales.
