THE BUROPBAK WAR* £J6w that hostilities have aciuallycommenced between Rassia and Turkey* (as our. readers will observe by the latest intelligence published Ibis week in our columns,) a wide field for speculation as to (he probable course of events on the conll* nent of Europe and Western Asia, opens to our view. From tho first-in this controversy be* tween Russia and Turkey, we have instinctively sympathized with the cause of the Grand Sultan, and had a strong faith in the success of his arms, each as would not seem to be warranted by tho results of previous conflicts, between the same powers. Bat we think the’ events of (he past ! few years have changed the character of Turkey, and that instead of the weak, exhausted power she has generally been considered to be, ready tot fall to pieces from ineritae and sloth or tho slightea exlernal jostling, she has renewed her energies in a remarkable manner and is now perhaps the most warlike and energetic people of the World. She is resuming her ancient prowess and enthusi asm, when she was by her impetuous valor the master of much of Eastern Europe, and her domin ions threatened to be the centre of almost universal empire. When she seemed likely to be tho scourge of Europe, her devastating armies were eventually resisted and checked in their onward | march by the peasantry of Hungary, and Europe thus saved from the desolating tread of the cruel and vindictive M.useelman. Tho essential services thus rendered by Hun gary, have been rewarded by the Czar assisting the House of . Hapsborg to trample the constitu tion of Hungary in the dust, murder her citizens, whip with the merciless knout her women, and incorporate her as a dependent province under military rule, into an empire that owed its exist ence to her bravery and good offices. Hungary J followed (he fate of Poland; and poor Poland and ! poor Hungary Ho bleeding at the feet of conquer ors without magnanimity, the victims of a policy as heartless as despotic, and have no longer a name or a place among the nations of tho world. But (heir virtues and their sofferings are not for gotten, but continue to stir up (he patriotic and brave of every people and Inspire them with re newed zeal in the cause of liberty, and in their cause if opportunity 'offers to strike a blow in (heir behalf. Their chief men and rulers have had to flee from Cosaack and Austrian tyranny, and have infused their spirit into surrounding nations, into I whose bosoms they have poured the tale of (heir sufferings, their woe, their degradation. Turkey received recently at the risk of war, the exiles of Hungary, and nobly protected them, and refused to give them up to the vengeance of their oppres sors. The noble Kossuth and his companions were saved to the world from an ignominious death, by the hospitality and sublime moral stand taken by Turkey in their behalf. Can we believe that these events so ennobling in them selves have bad no Influence upon the Turkish nation, and not rekindled an ardour in their bo* some that is now burning and glowjAg Id national effulgence in the principalities invaded by Russia, and which has so far given victory to the cause of the Crescent 1 The hospitality of the Moslem has been the bread cast upon the waters, which iis now returning after many days. Already are the exiles of Hungary arming for the defence of Turkey. And can we believe that Poland and Italy will remain Indifferent spectators! The countrymen of Kosiusco will join with the follow ers of Kossuth and Mazzlni in beating back the invaders, and in the praiseworthy and patriotic effort of giving constitutional liberty and consti tutional governments to supplant the absolutism of Europe. Hungary and Poland and Italy may not be free from the agitations produced by a ge-j neraJ European war likely to follow ibo collision! between Torkey and Russia. The wonders of Providence are mysterious and past finding out. Recently it Is alleged by the foreign dispatches, Louis Napoleon, the Emperor of France, and Louis Kossuth, late Governor of Hungary were closeted for three days on the sub ject of European affairs. The nephew of “ the Child of Destiny** may with a superstitious awe feel called upon to decide the question whether Europe shall become Cossack or Republican.— The prediction of the great Napoleon may be a bout to be verified, and now is about the lime that prediction made at St. Helena, (ho prison house of the greatest spirit of modern times, was to bo consummated by the actual event 1 Can we doubt the effect of tho enthusiasm and eminent ability of Kossuth whb all these concurreul events upon the mind of the present Emperor of France!— He is tho representative of a new order of things, of the new dynasties and not of the old. Napo leon the Third, has for his prototype and examplar the “ Child of Destiny,” the Napoleon the Great, tho creature of revolutions, rising to his full height nod majesty upon the ruins of crumbling thrones. May not the present Emperor of France con sider himself tho vice gerent of heaven to carry out and consummate the great work of his august relationT Should such be the case how import-; ant the results, how splendid the panorama of European events for a few years to come I May the Spirit of liberty guide them and the welfare of the people be promoted and established.

John-F. .Mbans, of Towanda, Bradford county, aa the next Democratic candidate for Canal Commissioner. There ia no office in the gift of the people—not even , that of Governor—of eo great importance to the lax pay ers and business interests of tbe Commonwealth, as that of Canal Commissioner. It needs but a glance at the extent and character of our improve* menls covering, like veins and arteries, the face of our great old State—to appreciate their importance, and (he immense responsibility rest* tng upon'lhose to whom is committed their man agement. How careful should we be in the se lection of those upon whom We devolve such delicate and important functional There are some who seem to entertain the idea that a good lime-kilti or eayv mill clerk possesses suflicien 1 qualifications properly to discharge the duties of the office we are considering. What a mistake! What unpardonable ignorance! These ere they who eo vociferously bellow <• Sell the public works!” As far as my observation jtaches, the tone of the democratic press seems* to favor tho claims of the North, (we have no South, 1 believe, Mr. Editor,) and in that event, where would you look' for a better or more suitable man than Col. Jno. F. Meanbl He is well abkHavofably known throughout the North; and has warm friends wherever known, who would rejoieo at his noml ’ nation. A man of fine business habits, urbane and pleasing in his manner, radical, untiring, and | consistent in bis democracy, and withal, and a. bove all, of unbending integrity, he possesses all the requisites to a useful, prompt and accommo dating officer. Ia view of all these considerations, and others that might be named, wo might well regard (he nomination of Col. Means as auspicious of suc cess at the polls—and the dawning of a new era in the history of the Canal Board. ..SUSQtIfiHANNA. The “ Late” Whig Partv in Onto.—The re sult of tbe recent election iir Ohio, intensely grati fying as it is to the Democracy of that State and of the whole Union, is, of course, regarded by the Whigs with feelings of a diametrically opposite nature. If their defeat had been of a less over whelming character, (hey might h&vo found some “balm in Gilead” to assauge the mortification oc casioned by the disaster, but (he Democratic vic tory was so brilliant and so complete, that no con solation is of any avail. Whiggery will not be comforted, and its lamentations.are truly sorrow, ful. Hear the-lamentation of the Duflaloe Ex press. “We refer to the •'Whig party of .Ohio os of things past. It is pretty much'obliterated. We recollect something of that party in Ohio in other days, when it inscribed upon its banners its tri umphs by majorities that astonished the world, and seemed to bid defiance to all attempts to over throw it. A few years have rendered it prostrate and powerless, without any apparent recoperative energies. The late election, left it with but Jive Whigs in the Senate, and fifteen in the House of Assembly— hu\ twenty in the entire Legislature. This is a lamentable picture of a great and power ful party now fallen and helpless. We hold the Whig party of Ohio up to the political world as a warning against the entertainment of side issues. It is n victim of abolitionism abd.coM water, and by the two, left as bare as nakedness itself, and as weak as imbecility. Abolitionism had nearly skinned it alive, when by a fatuity inexplicable, U turned to the Maine Law, which dealt the finish, log blow. ' Growth or Ohio.—Every six years there-is. law, a revaluation of real estate-ln Oblo, for taxation. Jo 1846, the cash value of all property in Ohio amounted to a little orar four hundred and seventy five million dollars. The new valu ation of 1653, now completed, shows (ho value of all taxable property in (hat State to be just aboot $800,000,000: an increase of $3-25,000,000 in six years.'; This is at the rate of aboui7o per cent, in six years, or almost 13 por cent, per an num. At that rate, the valne of all (he properly of the Stale will be doubled in less than nine years from lBiG. This wonderful growth In wealth is doubtless the result, in a great measure, of the completion of many railroads running through different parts of the Slate, and connect ing with Eastern roads so as to give to the agri cultural interests all tho benefit of cheap and speedy access to the Eastern markets. The re turns show the increase in value is principally In farm lands. Tho value of real estate in Columbiana county alone, in the last six years, is nearly $2,000,- 000; and the value of all property in (hat county is returned at very nearly $10,000,000. When it is recollected (hat, oat of about 35,- 000,000 acres of land whjoh constitute tho area of Ohio, only about two-fifths are yet brought under actual cultivation, some idea may be form ed of the future wealth of this State, when all its soil is cultivated, and all its capacities for produc tion developed.

The Commonwealth was represented In this case by David Fleming, Dis trict Attorney, and bp A. J. Herr and F. C. Car son, who. were associated with him in the case, and the prisoner was defended by John C. Kun kel, John Berryhill and Thomas Jordan. The proof of the killing of the woman was well made out, but the evidence showed that it was done In a fit of anger, brought on by Jealousy; at the same period; Johnson having shot and mortally wounded a person who was In company with his wife at the lime. After a laborious investigation of the evidence, and able arguments on both sides the case was submitted to tho Jury on Saturday night ateleven o'clock. Tho Jury remained out until nine o'clock oh Tuesday morning, when they brought in a verdict of guilty of murder in tbe second degree.— Harrisburg Onion, A New Application of the Association Principle, We find in the Armstrong (Pa ,) Democrat, the following communication, which suggests an idea that may be worthy of the attention of such of our readers, of limited means, as are pondering how they can secure a home in (he West: “A Sonic Wav to Get Rich.— Suppose fifty families, consisting of farmers and mechanics of different kinds, form themselves into a company, elect a President, Board of Managers, Secretary and Treasurer; pay in $l6O each family, or a tri fle more if necessary, making a fund of $7,500 or $10,000; move into some rich and healthy part of the Western country, consisting of woodland and prairie, on some navigable river leading to Take up a section of land, lay it off into town lots, divide them equally among the 50 families, take $BOO of the money and buy United Stales Slock with U to pay for the land, it will draw interest to wanted. Take the balance of the money for flour, bacon, sugar, coflee, seed wheat,corn, pqlatoeSfCowa, horses,hoga, wagons, gears, ploughs, transporting the families, £c.— When they arrive at the spot selected, all go to work as one family; some to ploughing, planting, fencing, and some to building houses, &c. Build a house for'each family on one of their own lots, and then dissolve the company ; dividing the pro duce and personal property equally to each family; or if the majority, or any number of them, like to stick together longer, and build (wo or three houses for each one, and a hotel, they can .do eo; they will soon find renters for them. Thus yon see each family for $l5O and eight hoors work each day for about six months, will own 34 lots and a house, in a town of fifty families, consisting of fanners and mechanics, worth at the lowest calculation $4000; besides a share in all the pro duce raised, and the personal properly bought.— Besides, each family can lake up ICO acres in (lie neighborhood of the town, for $1 35 per acre, and pay for it when it comes into market, with large ranges for cattle on the praries all around, and ■ very Mule winter. This nan all bo done honestly, without robbing, .shinning, or oppressing any body—a very satisfactory consideration for sn , honest man to reflect over.” The communication concludes by stating that a company such as that proposed above, in non being formed at Kiitaning, Armstrong county, to start on the Ist of March next, and invitre those pleased with the prospect to join the expedition.
