Distressing Accident.— On Tuesday evening Mr. Gilson C. Knettle, Agent for WV M. Henderson & Son, of this place, in attempt, ing to couple some cars, in Bam mo re, was cangh t , between the bumpers and crushed so badly that he died in lesskhan an hour-and-aVhalf. Mr. Knettle was a sober, industrious and rcspccta-. bio citizen, enjoying the confidence of his em , ployers and the respect of those acquainted with him. Ho leaves a wile and four small' children to lament his untimely death. 03“ The report in circulation, and which has boon published all over the country, that the Conferees of Perry and York counties Itad vo r ted for and passed a resolution in the conference declaring “ tliat in no event should Joiin A. Ann, the present Lecompt'on member of Con gress receive a nomination,” is not true; The resolution in question approved o( Dr. Aul ? s course in Congress, but declared that ho should hot be re-nominated, because Cumberland bad already had two toms. • Tho.roport.wo believe, grew out of a mistake in. telegraphing-af Har risburg. - Had the telegraph conveyed the whole resolution, there would have been no ground to misapprehend its moaning, but, by conveying only a part of it,■ it was.made to censure Dr.’ Aul’s conduct when it really endorses it. tE?“Tho Conferees of the pie-bald,party of this district, met at Bridgeport, in tins county, on piiday last to nominate a candidate for Con gress.. After considerable ppw-wowing they adjourned without making any nomination, pre ferring to wait the'action" of tho 'Democratic Conferees. Qur opponents are disposed to be a little sharp on this occasion, but wo think it is labor lost. .■ QnEitATiON Again.' — IT'.. „, n ,1 .. 1, „ , able to state that the Hail Pactbry of Sir.

Colored Camp Meeting.—Tlio colored Camp Meeting, held at Mow Cumberland, inthiscoiin ty, on Sunday last, was numerously attended by all colors, sort's, ages, , and conditions, of men and women. Several list fights took place, and. Woody noses, black eyes, and aoto heads, was the result. . ■ Support Toca Own. — The true-policy of a town is to support its own’ business people,— True prosperity can only bo secured in this way.. If pur business men, who pay onr taxes, pay li cense, and keep the- machinery of business mo .vingj are neglected, and purchases made at other places, or from (ravelling traders who reside at other places, wo can never expect to have a homo market worth anything: Too many of onr citizens are in the habit of buying articles of merchandize and mechanism in the cities which can bo, obtainod-fnily as- cheap in Carlisle. Onr mechanics cannot bo excelled, and if wo would prosper in business and wealth, we should make it a point to .“support-our, own,” and by so do. irig give employment tp onr people and keep our money in circulation at homo, instead of send ing it abroad to lino the coffers of city manufac turers. -02?” Messrs.

Tho girl was delivered up to the .Untied Stales Marshal to be returned to her father. ’ K7"The Democratic party has outlived eve-, ry opposing party tliat.cver rose up in this country, aod.it is destined to 'outlive all the base factions and coalitions that may be form cd against it hereafter.' It is the only political party that is now worthy of the conlidence and respectof the people, and it is the only parly that is calculated to develop tho true greatness and glory of the country. HT’Cast week a little girl in Cincinnati, about three years of ago, swallowed a copper cent, of the old coinage. The child suffered considerable pain, but all efforts to remove the cent by cathartics or emetics proved,unavailing. Finally, the coin was skillfully taken from the stomach by a physician, by the use of an in struinent inserted in the mouth. „ The McKean County Bank.— lt has al ready, been slated that tho Cashier of tho McKean -County Bank , had absconded with about $70,000 of its funds.

The Conterenco adjourned to meet again at Bridgeport, on Thursday, fho I6th instant, at Hi o’clock, A. M. DEMOCRACY. The Lock Hayon Democrat in speaking of Democracy says, “it is (hat system, which is founded upon the principle, that the benefits as well as the burthens of Government, under an organization established and carried on by the direct action of tiro people, should lie equally and fairly distributed. It avoids with the greatest care; all constitu. lions, or laws that place, or tend to place, the liberty of thought and action, or,the pecuniary interests of one individual under the cbntrol of another. . ■ Under this system, an opportunity is afforded to every person by reason of the privileges it .conimandsr to exercise equal power and rights, with each of ins fellows.' The incentive to bo worthy of such privileges is seep in the diffusion of knowledge, and the facility it affords to all, by education, to bo able properly*to appreciate those powers and rights. Democracy is also founded, upon the great fact, that the. right to life,' liberty, and the purr suit of happiness, is inalienable.. The air, the earth and the water, are the common property of the race of man, and although races may contend'With one another for exclusive rigid and use' of certain, defined portions oi those elements; ybt within the limits which sopeiato nations have, established by consent, as their own, the individual members of each nation, can only by their own free will, and by virtue of laws and compacts they have freely adopted' partayith any portion of those rights. Antagonistic Democracy is that system which asserts that all men are notrljbrn free and equal; that those who by superior forcoor dinning have or may secure power over the 4jes,t, n ha.vo a right to use such power I'or.lhoir'spScia'ididPefit at the expense. of all the rest. .No matter whe ther this advantage is secured in monarchical I brßopnhlican Government by'patient endurance : id' fm; .subjected, for a time, of unjust and nno qiial laws";' or tho exerciao ni pviviieges ancr rights claimed as sacred froth long and nndis, furbed, enjoyment; it presents the great antn. gonist principle which is at war with the govern ment of. tho people as a whole by themselves, and with which Democracy, in tlie present an 1 for the future wages a ceaseless contest. ■ -In,tho organization of parties in.this Repub lic, from tho beginning, tho people have been divided between these two. ideas. The Demo cratic parly, claiming in the broadest manner, not .only the right, but the competency ot (lie people, as a whole, to bear the, burthens and reap, the benefits ot government without any guardians, to whom special privileges should he awarded for voting and making laws for the rest. Tho opposing party, under the various namos wbieh.it has assumed, at first Iho.Fcderal party, subsequently Whig, and now Republican, at an early day openly,, boldly, and in latter times more covetly, and by acts rattier than by decla rations have waged steady warfare upon the Democratic principle. Unable to resign open conflict the impregnable positions bn which'Do. mocracy is founded, they court excitement and address (lie passions and prejudices of tho poo plo in whatever way they are most likely to reach temporary success. One of those seasons of excitement, is now passing away, and those wiip have carefully ob served the measures adopted by. the Republi cans during their accidental success in this- State, cannot have failed to observe that no other construction can be given ito those mea sures, than that they'me part of tho creed, which has descended to them from their ances tors whoso name of Federal they have discard ed, hut whoso principles they pursue, without tho boldness of avowing them." £7” The American and Republican Conven lion of Mew York failed to forma coalition.— Each party nominated a full State ticket. Ed ward D„ Morgan, of Mew. York, was nominated by-the Republicans for Governor, and Lorenzo Burrows, of Orleans, by the Americans. The Wool Trade. —Lawrence county, Pa., seems destined to lake rank with Washington county in the matter of wool-growing. It is’ stated that a single firin. Messrs. Cochran & ilardakrc, of Newcastle, have -purchased and shipped about one hundred and forty thousand pounds of wool , Tito price paid averaging about 33 cents per pound, making over sdfl,. 000 which has been distributed among our wool-growers. tCT’Rev. Mr. hoop, of tho Episcopal Church at Metamora. Illinois, was about commencing a sermon, when a sudden gust of wind blow the document out of the window. Some of tho con gregat.on tittered and laughed. The clergy man descended from his desk, went out and re covered his sermon, returned and preaehbd it and then announced that he would preach no more for that congregation. A ITaud Case. —Frank Johnson, a freeman of color, has just returned to Newcastle. Pa., after having been a slave in the South for eight years. Ho was deepyed to Lynchburg, Va., I about 1850, since which time ho has been a I kind of circulating medium throughout the Whole region extending from Virginia to South Carolina. ,He has been sold twelve times, at prices ranging from $5OO to $lOOO. At length, being identified, his case came up for trial in 1 the court of Jloore county, N. C., by which he was set at liberty. ] Mr. Jefferson and Political . Deserters. Few men have more thoroughly studied hu man nature, or the Causes and motives of the action of men. than Mr. Jefferson, nor calcula ted their effect with more accuracy. lie may well be called a prophet, whose predictions sel dom, if ever, failed where political considera tions were involved. We have been struck with the depth and accuracy, of his views con cerning political deserters, and with what accu racy he has described the course of those ofbur own times, their motives, and the consequences to themselves and to the party they leave. In a letter dated May 4,180 G, to Mr. Monroe, who was then abroad, Mr, Jefferson said “ Our old friend. Mercer, broke off from ns some tunc ago, at first, professing to disdain joining the federalists.'yet. from the habit of voting together, becoming sopn identified with them, - Without carrying over with him a Kin gle person, he is now in ii stale of as perfect ob scunf;y_ns if his name had never been known. iMr. J. Randolph is in the same track, and will, end in the same way, lUs course , has exercis ed considerable alarm., Timid men consider I it.fts a p’rooif of the weakness of the. govern ment, and that it is to be rent to pieces by dem agogucs, and to end in anarchy. I survey the scene with a difierent eye arid draw a different augury from it. In the House of Rcnresenta* a great mass Mr. Ran dolph s popular eloquence gave him such ad stages as to place him unrivalled ns.a. leader of the House: and, although not concilatory to I whom, he led, principles of duty and pa triotism induced many of them to swallow hu miliations he subjected them to. and to vote as was right as long as he kept the path of right himself. The sudden defection of siich men could not but produce a momentary astonish-! menfc, and even dismay ;■ hut for a moment on ly. The good .sense of the House rallied around its principles, and, without igiy leader, pursued steadily the business of thsssossion. did well, and by a strength of vote wwch hns never be fore been seen. ■ Upon all trying questions, ex clusive of the federalists, the minority of repub. •icans (anti-federalists) voting with him. has been from four to six."or eight, against from ninety to one hundred : and although lie treats the federalists with ineffable contempt, yethav | mg declared eternal opposition to this adminis ! tration and conscquently'associatcd with them m his votes, he will, like Mercer, end w|fh him, Ihe augury drawn fronwhls is. that there is a steady, good sense in the legislature, and in the body of the nation, joined with good intentions, which will lead them to discerri and to pursue the public gbod. under all circumstances.which can arise, and that no ignis fatuus will be able to lead,(hem Icing astray. . Jn'lbe present case, (he public sentiment; as far as declarations of it have come in, is, without a single exception, in firm adherence to the administration.’’ ■ Here Mr. Jefferson fiilly describes' those who left the administration at the, last session of Congress, and commenced voting with their former enemies, and, from voting together, be came identified with ' them; Althongfi' some times calling their former opponents bard names, and treating them with contempt, still their habit of acting and voting' together placed them upon the exact ground occupied by the | opposition. Mr. Jefferson describes most ac: rately, the effect upon, the .deserter,, and upon the administration. It sinks, the actor, and he soon becomes forgotten,.while.it in no respect injures the administration; Although thc pco ple.at first become alarmed, their good sense has parried thern along in the right track in the support of all proper measures,"ffttcrly -djsre gaiding the zeal of clocpicure of thoso who have lei t the democracy ai>d are giving aid and com fort to their enemies. The desertions of’last winter Jiave_npt elevated one of the deserters, nor have they injured the aclnnhistratiortoKoc'- ■casioned continued alarm with the public.— The good Sense of the latter has penetrated the movement and the m,etivqs of its actors! A 1 S°°d democrats will rejoice to know how little their party is affected by .movements intended to crush and destroy i,t. Mr. Jefferson’s pre dictions have been again realized. 'The demo-. .cratii party is purer and stronger, than ever, and will triumphantly work but the great objects of it's founders, while, deserters, will meet the fate which-Heayen has ordained for all who place' themselves in that unenviable category. The votes of the, people, almost daily coming in, prove that they have duly estimated the causes of the late desertions, and the true measure of the deserter’s, merit.— Washing! cn Union. I’.u.i.ixn ope in Emigration. —For the first time iii.the history of emigration to theJJniled btates from the British Islands, there is now a preponderance in the movement' towards Aus tralia and Canada over that toward these .'shores;'’ The official returns made up in England, show that for the first three months of 1858 the ag gregate number of emigrants from Great Brit ain was 19,000,’0f whom 8200 were bound,for the ,United Slates, against 1G.72G for the corres ponding period of 1857. ■ Of the rest; 98G7,were for tho Australian colonics; Emigration for all parts of the world has not been at so low a figure for fifteen years past as it now is. It at tairieifits maximum figure in 1853, when it reached 372,725, This was reduced to less than one-half in 1857, when the emigration on ly reached some 180,000. Interesting to Newspaper Ruopribtors, ; One of the Courts of ; lheStatepflndiana, has recently made a decision, which is of interest to all newspaper proprietors throughout the Un- ion. ’ A controversoy existed relative to a charge for advertising between the commissioners of Hamilton county and the Patriot newspaper.—- It was held by the Judge that " the published terms of newspapers constitute a contract. If work is given to newspaper publishers without a special contract comraveiling the published terms, the publisher can charge and receive ac-, cording to the terms so 'published. It is not necessary tp prove.what.tho work cost, or was worth ; the publishers have a right to fix the estimate value of their columns, and, if so fix ed, no other question need be asked, but the price thus charged'can bo recovered.” IlnnnmTATiY Physical DisFonjiiTr.—One ol the most remarkable instances of thotransmis. sion of a singular physical deformity, from pa rents to children, through successive genera- tions, is to be found in Cincinnati, Ohio. A man, between forty and fifty years of ago, has four short fingers on each hand, reaching about to the first joint of a finger of unusual length, and, what is very, remarkable, is the fact that this pysioal deformity of the hand can bo tra ced back, through various members of his fam- ily, for d period of one hundred and eighty years. Whether or not any of his ancestors, previous to that time, were similarly afflicted, is not known. - - O” Many are the preparations ottered to the public for the cure of Chronic Diseases, but no medicine has ever done one-half the amount of good for sufferers as Du Vaix’s Galvanic On., It is applicable to all sore and painful diseases. It will relieve pain in a ic# mimites. Tlib Great Difference of Parties. ■The Democratic party is, and always has been, the true friend of the poor man. Since the foundation of our country, tho'Demooracy have favored every measure which was calcu lated to benefit the mechanic and the laboring man. The principle of universal suffrage, the present public, land system, our hard money currency, the abolition of imprisonment for debt, the Homestead Exemption Law, the com mon School system, and every other policy of our Slate and National governments, which di rectly befriends the poorer classes, .owes its adoption and successful operation to lh,e Demo cratic party. ■ The Opposition, on thecontrary, have always been the peculiar friends of the rich. They seem to entertain the same ideas that arc held by .the British aristocracy, namely, that “the masses of the people are incapable of self-gov ernment, and if the government, will take cafe of the rich, the rich will take care of the poor.!’ Consequently, nearly every measure they ever advocated was based upon one or other of those theories. Especially was this the case with their National Bank, their Bankrupt Law, their imposed distribution of 4he public lands among the States, ami their high tariff system. Their Alien -and Sedition Laws of old, their Know Nothingiam of 1854, and the hostility to popular sovereignty in the Territories, all ewe their origin to the same mistaken notions. The “Scotch Pipe” Roorback. The Opposition to the Democratic party, hav ing no principles and despairing of being able :o make an issue on" which they can- ride into Office, have-jnvented, in lieu of a platform, any quantity of falsehoods wherewith, if possible, to injure the prospects of the Democracy. One of the, boldest, as well'as the most insidious, is. | that concerning the purchase of. the pipe for the Washington City Aqueduct, in which it is alleged that Government bought the said pipe] from manufacturers in, Scotland. , The follow ing,. from, the the Hollidaysburg Standard, shows the whole thing a fabrication : “ We have noticed a Munshausen story trav elling around in the papers, concerning our government making a contract for water pipes to be brought, frojij. Scotland.,. It is a fihely. gotten up story, and did it not lack that -one qualification, truth,. it might be told with u great deal ot effect. The facts are as follows: Government required pipes for the Washington aqueduct.. An advertisement was made of the contract offering it to bidders. John Lawrence Myers, an iron founder in Philadelphia, put in the best bid and received the contract, agreeing |to furnish the pipes by ‘ October Ist. Upon John Myers giving security, his bid wasfeceivr cd, and the whole■ affair was taken out of the hands of* the government and its officers.. Mr. Myers. we believe, did make a contract with some Scotch house to supply part, of the pipes; but only because it was necessary to enable him to fulfil his contract: and upon these the United States will be as. much of a; ghlncras the duty amounts to. , . V* ■ to the Government making any contraci wifhaScoich, company, it is simply false, Whatever Mr. Myers doesjs another,matter. , AnNIVEHSABY op CbOMWELE’s Death. The 3d instant was the -rtvo Bfndrc'dth anni versary of the death of Oliver Cromwell. I.y a singular coincidence, the day of the. week as well as tlmt of .tijfynionlh was the same.as that on which the protector (lied, «qd on which he achieved his most* signal triumphs. On Sep nf. Dnnbar; on I September 3. IGSi, bo received the “crowning mercy I’of. 1 ’ of. Worcester; and on September 3, , 1858, be passed from arnhng men. I , C 7” We learn, from the’ Johnstown (Pa.,) Echo .that a brutal murder was perpetrated near that town on Sunday last. It appears that two young men, named John Beamish' and William - ArentrUo, had been to a,parly oh Sat urday night, and. after it broke up, left the house in company with two young women, whom it N wns their intention to escort to their homes. On their way they disputed about something, and Archtrue struck Beamish with his fist. The latter returned the blow, where upon Arcntrue drew a knife and slabbed him to the heart, killing him instantly. The mur derer was arrested almost immediately, 'and committed to Ebensburg jail for trial. Both parties are respectably connected,-and previous to the murder are reported to have been on the best of terms with each other. £7?*. The Allentown (Pa*) Republican’ notices two aged men, now living in Lehigh county, who may well be called relics of the olden lime. The one, Mr. John Harlaoher, is ninety-four years/old, and celebrated the return of his birthday two Sundays ago by visiting the place where ho was born, at Hclfricii’s Spring, in South Whitehall township,, which is about six miles from bis present residence in Upper Sau con. The old man said he wanted to take one more drink from the old spring he loved to visit' in his boyhood; and around which he 1 saw many a band of Indians assemble near a cen tury'ago. The - other old veteran, Mr. Philip Weilzel, of Lower Macungy. township, must be a hearty “old block”ofa Democrat. Heisovcr eighty-five year? of age,, and yet worked in the late harvest like a young man. Ho cut with his own hands thirty-three slacks of grain and fificen.staoks of timothy. ,Ho also assisted to mow in haymaking. FatAi. Mistake of a Druggist— Professor John Wilson, of.“ South Wood School,’’.Tall adega, Ala., died onthe22d ult,, from taking a dose of morphine, by mistake, instead of qui nine, A valuable servant had a slight chill and the physician directed ■ the family to procure from a drug store a small quantity of calomel and quinine. .The ordinary dose of quinine was given to tho servant, and in a few hours she was dead. Mr. Wilson having had a slight chill, tho doctor weighed out for him ten grains of quinine—as was supposed—from the same bolllc. As soon ns it was taken ho began to sink, and in twenty minutes ho was uncon scious. It was now discovered that through the mistake of tho druggist, morphine bad been sent instead of quinine. In eight hours the pa tient was dead. Tho affair has created intense excitement at Talladega. Tiir Mission to Spain;—lt is reported that the Hon. J. P. Benjamin, United States Sena tor from Louisiana, has been tendered the Mis sion to Spain, in.plaoe of Augustus 0. Dodge, the present incumbent, This.-doder the cir cumstances, is'one of'tho most "important ap pointments in the gift‘of the Government, es pecially as wo may infer that the new Minister, will be charged with the duty of making ano ther eflort to secure the acquisition of Cuba., Mr. Benjamin is a highly accomplished gentle man, and is, perhaps, as well qualified for the responsible post, as any individual , who could bo selected. Tribute to (lie Printer—PfillosopUtrr. . A .suggestion has been made, that’ at this particular time, when science has accomplished so great a feat as spanning, the ocean, that it would bo appropriate to render a tribute to. the philosopher .who drew the lightning from the clouds, and whose services in aid of the great cam e admit of no faint praise, The ashes of Benjamin Franklin rest m an obscure and lone ly corner of a grave-yard in Philadelphia, and strangers visiting the spot, justly censure tjie American pcople for the neglect paid'to his re mains. No appropriate tombstone is reared. There are two classes of the community who owe a debt of gratitude to the deceased, and those are printers and telegraphers. Why then should not the members of these two profes sions, throughout the Union, combine their ef forts, and rear over the head of the printer philosopher a monument. There are at least eight hundred telegraph employees in this country, and six or seven times as many prin ters. A small contribution from each would raise all that 1 would bo. required to erect a handsome tomb, plain but massive—emblema tic of the combined simplicity and strength of him whom printers delight to honor. Already the typographical fraternity in New Orleans I have taken the matter in hand, and at a recent meeting appointed, officers and adopted pre liminary measures for the formation of a socie ty for the purpose designated. The call which they have issued will no doubt he responded to with alacrity, and, as the right sort of men have the matter in hand, we expect to see it carried through rapidly and successfully. Atlantic Telegraph is not yet in working order. The insulation remains per feet, out no messages have been received, for ten days past. It is surmised that the removal of the telegrapher, Professor Whitehouse,which was to have occurred about the Ist inst., has something to do with this. Prof. Thompson will succeed him. The Hughes instruments will be used, and it is. confidentially believed that with them three hundred words per hour can bo transmitted; The first of October is now.the time mentioned for. opening the tele graph for regular dispatches. So says r.ijmor. ■ HZr" The Rev. E|cazer Williams, more gene rally known, perhaps, as claiming' to be the Dauphin of Prance, (the son of Louis XVI, and Marie Antoinette,) died at Hogansburg, N. Y„ at 8 o’clock on the morning, of the 28th of Au gust.. His last words were:—“Lord Jesus Christ,'.have mercy on mo, .and receive my spirit. Ho was buried the following day with Masonic honors and the services of the Episco pal Church,in which he Was a Missionary priest. He died in poverty. There is no doubt that ho suftered at last from the want of attention, and other necessaries.. His habits at home seem to hare been reclusive. Had he tnade known, his claims- Co, their attention, the Masons'would have: provided for all his wants. He leaves an heir, who may yet prove his royal lineage. A Cr.Ea'Gv jiao's Wipe Eloping with , a Railhead Man;.-—The people of Lafayette, fnd., were startled some days, since at the an nouncement of ah’cxlraordinary ;cl(Jpement; 1 Mr. Sherwood,, the Secretary of thb-Lafayette ' Railroad. tympany, and ,Mrs. Allen, Wife ofik 1 Presbyterianminister of that city, Joined com pany and left for parts probably unknown.— ( Mrs,..Allen left her husband on'a preterided vis it to St.. Louis. Her husbnnd Was to meet her there, but on reaching the city found her not there, and the truth of. her real intentions and action was revealed to him. Sherwood left a wife and two children, and sent word' to his wife, after leaving Lafayette, to dispose, of her goods and with her children go back to her father, •’ Six Men Drowned— Last Friday evening a week . appeared to have been a most fatal one m the neighborhood of Milwaukie, Wisconsin. Ku usP. Jennings, a merchant, and John H. Sn hvan, commercial agent, went out on the lakem a club boat and never returned ; the same evening a fishing-boat was caps zed at the mouth of the haVbor, when Henry Burchard and a young man named August were drowned Xwo othprs, whose names arc not given, went out to fish the same evening, and were also drowned. The bodies,-of these last two were recovered the next day. D, '; ATrr Fbom an Overdose op Morphine— On Tuesday forenoon, the wife of Mr.- George Stoddard, of Brookline, Mass., having a vio lent headache, took a dose of morphine, in the hope of obtaining relief. , She soon became aware that.she had taken an overdose, but she feared no serious ill effects, as she was accus tomed to its use in similar, cases, and medical aid was not called in.until it was tip- avail— • She gradually sunk, and died in the evening. A Savage Liuel upon a WosiAif.—Walter Savage Landor, the poet and author, a man 83 years of age. has just been convicted in England of a wanton libel upon a lady, Mrs., Yescombe. He accused her of pequry. of stealing from him i apd others, and obtaining money under false pretences. He subsequently, through (he inter cession of friends, made an apology, in which be withdrew, all the offensive and libellous charges which ho had concocted and circulated against Mrs. Yescombe, and added a promise that they should not bo repeated. But after this ho 1 re, newed his attacks, and in anonymous letters wrote the lady tho most disgusting beastliness that any brdm could conceive. Suit was brought against him, and a verdict of $lOOO was rendered by tho jury. The press Of Eng land, with one general accent, denounce the libeller and applaued (he verdict. Catawba Brandy Repudiated.— The Alex dria (Ya.) Gazette says, that the agent for the “ Pure Catawba Brandy,” for that city, had some of the article analyzed by a competent chemist last Friday, and found it to -to “ pure old rye whiskey, colored with burnt sugar.”— The agent, accordingly, has thrown up bis agency. Potatoes are said to have been first plan ted in New England, in 1719, by the London derry settlers, who, embracing sixteen families, put their first crop,in the ground in May, upon a ridge of land now lying in the western part of Derry, N. 11, Since then the potato Jias ranked among the leading productions of the country. .

Cultivation of tho Soil/by Steam, I From recent experiments in England it would I seem that the practicability of cult\yatii)g the . soil by steam has heon^ successfully tested. The Royal Agricultural Society recently ottered pri zes for n steam plow, that could bo : used by practical farmers in turning up fho Soil. The prize of $5OO was awarded to the steam plow patented by o'Mr. Fowler. The Council con ferred on Mr. Howard, another patentee, a me dal of honor for bis steam cultivator. It is now merely a question with farmers whether it will, pay them to employ slfam in tillage; The judges reported .that twenty of these steam cul tivators have been successfully worked ’ by ten ant farmers. The daily working expenses of Fowler’s machine they estimated at .£2 Cs. On the light land the work done per day of ten hours, including stoppages, was 7J acres, the soil being moved by four plows, 0 inches deep, by 3 feet 4 inches wide. On the heavy land the work of ten hours 'amounted to five acres, the same furrows as before, being taken. It was then tried with two trenching plows, (he width being twenty inches, the furrows from 12 to 14 inches deep, and the quantity of work done was 2i acres. Hero we see the increased cost of deep ploughing. The estimate of the judges for the tight land was 7s 2d per acre, for the heavy land 9s 2d per acre, and for trenching, 18s 4d per acre. On the light land the work could not have been done by horse power for less than 8s per acre. The trench plowing [ could not, have been done by horse power at all; it must have been done by manual labor at the cost of £G 13s 4d ; per acre. Thus, for ordinary ploughing, steam power as at present applied, saves one-fourth of the cost, but its real value consists in enabling the land to be deep ploughed, at a moderate cost, in a Way hitherto only used for market gardening Camp Susquehanna. The first general encampment of the.military of this Commonwealth, ordered by the Cover nor, was held during last neck at" Williams port, Lycoming county. Some twenty-five companies, numbering about a thousand men; were in attendance, and the display is said to have been very fine. Oh Thursday last the troops'were reviewed'by Governor Packer, and a correspondent of the Harrisburg Patriot anil Union thus describes the scene: “ His excellency arrived on the camp ground in an open barouche, and under a strong con voy of cavalry. The vast, multitude sent up cheer after cheer as he passed on his way 10 the Genera] ’s head quarters, and a salute of seven teen gu'ns was fired, in honor of his arrival. The Governor must have been filled with emo tion at these evidences of the love and esteem of a grateful people. He will never forget the en thusiasm .which marked his reception at Camp Susquehanna. - “ The review was the greatest feature of the encampment, and was most successfully per formed. Gov. Packer rode up and down the line ip an open carriage, dressed in a suit of plain,black, which presented a most striking contrast to the bckmifuluniforms of his aids. '. “The scene from the hill was inexpressibly grand. The military, drayvn up in line on the plain below, with their guns and swords, at a ‘present arms’'the music'of the regimental five thousand ladies and' gentlemen that graced the occasion with their, preitenbe, and these attired in dresses of ;evfery imaginable color,-so'much so that the effect was. almost ns fine as that of the military beneath them, was. a sight that greets the eye onlyonce in a centu ry.’’ ■ : . , -.,w: .
