We took no notice of hra letter l at the time of ns publication.as wo considered his “impressions” of little consequence in any one— According to McLean's “impre-Huns” before ihe election, Gen.

There is considerable ("peculation at this lime in regard to President Pierce's cabinet. The following j list of probable Cabinet officers ere afloat in (ho j journals : | Jjincs Buchanan, of Pennsylvania, Secretary of 1 Slate. John A. Dix, Of New York - , Secretary of the Treasury, David Todd, of Ohio, Secretary of the Interior. Robert F. Stockton, of New Jersey, Secretary of the Navy. Samuel Houston, of Texas, Secretary of War. Lynn Boyd, of Kentucky, Postmaster General. Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, Attorney General. The New STork. Herald makes the following re makes on iho position whioh iho President elect oc cupies : •• In entering upon his administration, Geo. Pierce cannot reflect ttfo deeply and thoroughly upon the elements which have conspired to carry hrm into i the Presidential chair. . His first step will bo his I most important one. He should see to it that it is , not hastily taken, to bo repented of when too late to j retrieve the error. The ovei whelming majority by 1 which ho is elected gives him an opportunity of (acting independently. Though lie may not bo able {to rel.iin for his parly the entire strength which has contributed to his own success, yet bo cun, by the exorcise of a prudent foresight, pul the organization of the democratic party upon a firm and solid busts, which will endure fur beyond his term of service.— If ho had been elected by a small vote, there might bo some justification for the usual policy of seeking to concilitlo discordant elements, which have no other affinity than is found in a eympathcic desire for office and spoils. Not so, however, with* Gen. Pierce. He is strong enough to do right, and will need no other support for his administration than (hat which it will command by its virtuous vindica tion of the great national principles which have been so triumphantly endorsed by the people In bis elcc tion.” We (tope lhatGen. Fierce will follow thq course hero indicated, selecting in every instance the best men for office, instead uf seeking lo conciliate noisy politicians and interested office-seekers. He has been placed in his present situation without any agency of his own, and has attained ii by an unpre ccdcnled majority—a majority which hat annihila ted (lie whig party ; and ho can acl independently and justly, without giving just cause of offence lo any one. Should ho thus act, bis administration , will not only be popular, but serviceable to his conn -1 try. He has an arduous and hurrassing duty lo I perform ; and it will require great firmness to per , farm it satisfactorily to himself und to the country. — ' |]o has the opportunity lo set an example which will ' cause his name lo descend lo posterity with bless - mgs, and wo trust that he will embrace it. Duties of Educated Women- 1 Tho education of women, like that of men, should I lend to prepare lliom for their duties; the difference of their employ mini v will of course render I heir siud lee d liferent. 11 is (ho duly of a wo in i n to fd ucai e her children, llio boys uniil a certain age, and girl*.

How much prudence should a molficr have In order In maintain her authority over thorn, without losing their friend ship and their confidence. Surely the mother of s family ought to possess a religious, mature, firm mind, acquainted wnh tho human heart. St. P>uf attaches such importance to tho education of child ren, that lie says it is by mothers die souls of child nn are suvsti. Weshall not allempt lo specify olllhnt (hey ought to know, in order lo educate ilieir children well To do tins, it would lie necessary lo enter into nn | eniire del-iit oI llicir studies ; but we must not onni j the subject ofeconumy.

Attorneys for C ommonwcahh, Miller & Shearer; [ for defendant S. & W. Hepburn and A. D. Sharpe, j This trial excited considerable interest, particu larly among our farmers, who as a class, being most subject to the depredations of these itinerant scoundrels, naturally feel anxious to see them punished. Indeed, the value of the properly these Mlow's deal in, the peculiar facilities afforded for taking, removing, and disposing of it, conspire to render them, when adroit, ns most of them are, the mosi dangerous thieves that can infest a community ; and this danger is even enhanced, when like Wal ters, thev add to the character of thieves that of des. perados also. lirii fly, this case as developed at the tiial, is as follows ; On the night of the 7th April last, two fine horses were stolen from the stable of Samuel Harizler, a gentleman living about 4 miles east ol (Carlisle. Next morning he tracked them 10 with in a hall mile of town. Here all traces were lost, but a halier identified by him as having been un one of the horses, was soon after found near the Poor House in a lane leading Irocn the Railroad to ihe Turnpike. From ihia it was inferred that the thief or thieves had struck for Perry county. Noth* mg, however, was heard of the horses until they turned up in Somerset county, where they were aeon In possession of two men w hose contradictory account of their business and destination excited suspicion, on which the horses were taken and an attempt made to capture the riders. Walters' comradrt sprang from his horse and cut across an adjoining field. Walters, himself, drew a pistol; but seeing the last move of his partner, jumped the fence and followed suite. Wallers was soon after arrested by some stage-drivers at RerUn, D miles from the town of Somerset, and brought to Car lisle. Colling desperate in view of his approach ing trial he procured from a notorious scoundrel of mir place, ihe means by which he soon after ef fected Ids escape, leaving for the perusal of the Sheriff a note, that for cool impudence, we have never seen equalled. Ho was re-arrested in Hol lidaysburg, brought buck and dealt with as above. ISaino us. Jno. Utngliter, Juckson Reighter, Wm. Holmes and David Snyder. —Highway Rubbery.

Shooting ties St«p-Sow.— -A Mrs. Richardson Is on trial in Pittsburg, for shooting herstep'ton. Tho father had loaded tho gun, but it appeared from the testimony that the woman supposed that it contained powder only, and fired to frighten him away, as he was in the habit of coming to annoy her. THE WINTER AT HAND. The last few.days havo made groat changes in the appearance of (ho landscape, stripping it of nearly every characteristic of Autumn, and decking it in (he sombre hues of winter. A week ago the woods wore Ic all (he glory of the full of the loaf. The col. Crs of the Ualiodscopo soarcely surpassed the varied beauty of the native tress. 'Wherever the eye t'eved, it beheld the dark red foliage jf the gum, the bright yellow of the hickory, the diversified hues of the maple, and (lie duM brown of the oak, relieved here and there by the still verdant evergreens, But the ruin that has fallen so plentifully within a week has changed the aspect of (he forests. The trees are now mostly stripped of their loaves, and, with their black and sudden trunks, look like funeral mules keeping watch al the threshold of tho dead autumn. The landscape has lost entirely its October beauty.— But for the green of the late grain, and the purple of the distant hills, there would bo nothing to show that winder was not already upon us. Tho wind, at night, pipis shrilly around the house. Involuntarily we repeal the linos of Bryant: “The melancholy (toys are coins, the saddest of Hie year. Of falling winds, ami naked woods, and meadows brown and sere. Hdiped in tho hollows of the grove, the autumn leaves lie dead; Tfi*y rustic to thn eddying gust, and to the rabbit’s tread, llio rubbin and the wren fire down, and from the shrub the Jay.

Wo shall sit al our blazing fires, or in our warm rooms, and listen, with a feeling of luxury indescribable, to tho storm beat ing against tho closed casements. The sudden traps, ilinn fills ua will) sad feelings. It seems but yester day that it was summer, and to morrow apparently it will bo winter. Nature, as it were, lies dead.— Ah! at a time like this, how thoughts of tho short ness of our space rise to tho mind, and how memor ius of the loved and lost come to fill tho eyes with unbidden (oars. We seem to join hands, indeed, with Death, and to lose something of our interest in life itself. Tho wailing wind, the bleak sky, the bare woods remind ue dial another year of existence hue departed novor to return; that our friends are failing, like the leaves, around us ; lha I age approach es ; that our children will soon fill our places ; and that, in a little while, wo shall bo forgotten. Yes, ihe world will roll on. and millions live, love, and | suffer, yet we shall have no part in it. A broken lomb atone, our name signed to some old deed, wilt bo all that will remain, and perhaps not even that.— Verily, verily, “man that is born of a woman is of, few days and full of trouble.” Mr. \Vnl>»tcr’« Lnat Moment*.

Nothing could more fully or beautifully illustrate Ihe finer (mils of Mr. Webster's character than the simple fact that when the hour of hi* own dissolu tion was at hand, his mind should recur to one of tho most beautiful creations of poclry, tliat could, without any impropriety, bo applied to himself.— iJuw singularly appropriate ore the hist two stanzas to tho great statesman's dying moments!

THE UOBAL OF TUTS ORB AT VICTORY* Whatever speculation we may entertain with gard (o the cause which led to oa this unprecedented democratic victory, there is ono truth which ihlfael out clear enough through-all the fog and base of parly conflict; and that is,the mseiee,whenevef anything like a parly issue can be made, congdff chiefly in the democratic parly. Whenever the bat. tie is between (ho democratic and (he whig idea the people are sure to rush to the democratic standard; It has been tho policy of the whigs, therefore, to leave thoir principles in the background, and ruab tbei/ candidates ahead under the cover of whatever notso and excitement they could gel op to bewilder and delude the pcoplo. Hard cider and coon skins wire the implements of whig Success in the election of General Harrison. The people were cheated, sod they came forward et the end of four years and threw tho whig speculators end money changers out of power. Then the whiga had resort again to their old device of hiding their principles, and running their candidate in on glory. But. the people had been once cheated by glory, and U was, therefore} found necessary to devise another trop to catch the nrnsee, and so General Taylor was held up is * people's candidate. And bo was elected President of tho United Stales through tho false pretences that ho was a “no parly man;" but he allowed himself to bo called the “people's man,” Standing' Up there on some high, broad-platTui’nrif far afiota thd ftfafe intri gues and partialities of party (italics.

The staunch and tried whigs, in the first place, were forced reluclUntly irf swallow his nomination ; it was a fiUtdf pTU, and one which a boiler portion of tho party took with ex. treme reluctance. The "pcoplo 1 * everywhere fell weft; but both parties wore to an extent dismayed; Gir tho politicians of both parties saw (hat "the pto; / ’plo" were determined to try their own hands and serf what they could do. They were tired enough of lh« everlasting dmg dong about "national banks/' "high “low tariff’s,'’ “protective tariffs," sndifl the hacked and rust d eworda of former party Conflicts, and without any, platform whatever they rushed wildly into (ho campaign for tho “people's man.” Tho result of (his general “no party issue” was of course a temporary icering of the party bonds of both whigs and dcmicroti. Old elementeof quarrel were cneily available in both parlies, and the "glo rious movement of (lie people" came near enough to to bong a glorious destruction of both parties and of j tho Union. Tho “people” every where disap pointed in this general linpao-»nd-torch-Hght-no. pnriy training, and at length have shown in tnvinci- I ble determination to come back and trsirr tga'in' under their old banners. 1 GO 4 626 1148 335 10 104 38 215 Tim nomination o> General Scnlt wai the (bird time of Irving the old device to cheat the people. 0(i( the people had learned to beware of the third lime.

Nov. 13.—Judge Paine of tile Stf* perinr ('unit, delivered his decision in the ease of the eight slaves brought from the Soolft to this city, en rtmle to Texas. The decision grants them their freedom, and they were consequently dis charged from custody. The Judge founded hie decision upon the statelet of (he State of New York. He eald (hat it wee well setileij in this country, and has not heietofore been disputed, that a Slate may rightfully past taws, if it chooses to do go, forbidding the entrance or bringing of slaves into its territory. The lawt of the Stale of New York upon this subject appear to he entirely free from any Cnoertainry. They n 't only do not uphold or legalize a property in slaves uilhm the 1 1 mils of Ihe State, but they ren der ii impossible that such properly should exist within those limbs. except in the single fnslani'e of fugitives from Kibnr under llie Constitution if ihe Lmlecf Slates. These slaves wi re not fugi lives, but were brought voluntarily into New York, by the owner, in d«. fi.ince of the Ntatol*. They aro therefore free. li was stated that the claimant was warned by the captain of ilio e'eamUoal not to brine thenr here, but to land thsm on James river. nnd he de clined.

T*l»e eight persons (2 women, 2 tads, 17 and 13, 2 twin boys 7, and 3 infants) then left the room. They were conducted by Louts Napoleon, and placed in carnages and driven off amid the cheer ing of the colored peopla assembled. Mr. and Mrs. Lemon, the owners, appeared to be much depressed, na It in said the slaves in quet lion were nearly all the property they owned in the world. JftlarUeto.
