DELA fatal accident occurred at a ball at
Sansom et. Hall, Philadelphia, on Monday
night. Among the participants was a young

who was accompanied by his wife and child.
About midnight, Owens raised one of the
windows on the east side of the Hall, and
eat down upon the window sill. By some
mischance he fell out and struck upon the
pavement in a side alley, a distance of about
:;0 feet, breaking his neck and fracturing his
skull. The ball was broken up as soon as
the fatal occurrence was known, and the
family of the deceased was taken home in
a chaise. Mrs. Owens was not informed of
the sad termination of the affair until after
she had reached home.

11.1.N:s:A AT .11e1141..1.'s FERRY. —A most mel
ancholy- accident occurred in the Susque
hanna, near McCall's ferry, which resulted
in thc death of three men and the narrow
escape of the fourth who was in the party.
The faets arc substantially these:
Four men named Abner Reese, William
Patton, Henry Shultz and Horatio Dunkle,
having discos cred the whereabouts of one
ot• the cables of the York Furnace bridge,
which was swept away by the late freshet,
started up the river in a small boat fur the
purpose of securing it. They succeeded
in loading the cable in the boat, which be
ing very heavy made the managing of the
boat a somewhat difficult matter. They
succeeded, however in descending the stream
in safety, until they came opposite Idol's
Island, when the boat struck a breaker, cap
sized, filled and instantly sunk. Reese,
Patton and Shultz were drowned, but their
companion, being a good swimmer, succeed
ed in reaching the Lancaster shore in safety.
Abner Meese, who resides in Providence
twp., leaves a wife and family to mourn his
untimely loss. He was highly esteemed as
a citizen in the neighborhood where he re
sided, and general surprise is expressed, by
all who knew him, that he should have
risked his life in such an expedition.
Henry Shultz resided in Martic-twp., and
had no family, having separated from his
wife some years since.
Wm. Patton was a single man and a la
hozer or special jobber about the river.
The cable which they had in the boat
when the fatal occurrence took place, was
very valuable, and had been used in the
construction of the false-works of the bridge.

DA%ID M rcuit.r., Esq.—lt gives especial
pleasure to notice the recent action of the Ca
nal Board, in the appointment of David Mit
chell, Esq., as superintendent of the Colum
bia Railroad, in place of Col. Joseph B. Baker,
who goes intolthe custom-house at Philadel
phia. Mr. Mitchell is known to the people of
Pennsylvania, as a gentleman possessed of
rare qualifications to discharge the duties of
the office to which he has been appointed.—
Besides being a practical engineer, with a
high reputation earned in his profession, he has
business qualifications that are not excelled
by any man in the State ; and to crown all, he
is a gentleman who, while he is mild and
courteous in demeanor, is, at the same time, a
very Caisar when the sterner qualities of his
nature are called into requisition.—Keysfone.
The Commissioners of this county,
announce that they are prepared to pay the
intereqt on loans, at any time calift.l for, on
or Lefore the first day of April.
zer Cov. Geary, who has resigned the
Governorship of Kansas territory, as before
announced, arrived in Harrisburg, on the
20th inst., direct froth Kansas, and during
his short stay, was called upon by a large
number of the citizens and members of the
legislature, who were cordially received by
him, and to whom he related the condition
of affairs in Kanacts, which he represents as
deplorable. The Government, he says, is
entirely in the hands of the Border ;Ruffians,
and no power but the military arm of the
General Government can control them. The
legislature is wholly pro-slavery, and every
act of theirs looks to the permanent estab
lishment of slavery in the territory, regard
less of the rights and wishes of the majority
of the people. Ile has no doubt, he says,
that if a fair expression of the opinion of
the actual tuna fide settlers could be had,
two-thirds would he found favorable to the
territory being free. But this fair expres
sion of the voice of the people cannot be
had. The election that is to come off in
April, will not be participated in by the free
State men, for the reason that under the
laws, and the manner in which they are
administered, they could nut have a fair ex
pression of their opinion. The territory is
already swarming with Border Ruffians,
who have been colonized along the Missouri
border with the express purpose of voting
and carrying the election for slavery. There
is no hope for the free State men unless the
General Government or Congress, will se
cure to them their rights. The adoption of
the Slave Constitution at the approaching
election, be thinks, is inevitable under the
circumstances.
The TeleyreipTy says that the Governor is
accompanied by hi, Private Secretary, John
Gillen, of Philadelphia, who has Leen con
stantly by his side, and he gi‘es also a most
deplorable account of the state of affairs in
Kansas.
Mr.lion says that every man hailing
from a free State is considered an Abolition
ist; and even Richard 3PAllister, celebrated
for his slave-cateliing prod itieg when in
Harrisburg. is clasQed by the Border Ruffi
ans as a rank Abolitionist and Free State
Man I
Gov. Geary was in Washington on Mon-
I day last, and on that day expected to have
an interview with the President, but was
I unable to do so in consequence of the ap
' pointments occupying the time of' the Presi
! dent and Cabinet.
He had a consultation with Gen. Cass on
Saturday, to whom he related a succinct ac
count of afthirs in Kansas up to the period
of his departure. lie says that in all his
conduct he aimed only for the peace and
welfare of the people, and that in the ad
ministration of his duties, all classes were
treated with the strictest impartiality. The
Governor reiterates the opinion that the pop
ulation of the Territory is still too small for
its admission us a State, and considers it
best that it should remain as at present until
its numbers shall increase sufficiently to
send a Representative to Congress.
The Nurill Awerican, of Thursday, has an
article on Kansas affairs, and the difficulties
the administration will have to contend with
in that Territory, in which it is said—Guy.
Geary has resigned his post. At first it was
belimed that he would be sent back. But
the Governor is rather too keen a man to be
twice victimized. To prevent such a con
summation he published a farewell address,
and communicated to various Republican
newspapers such statements concerning the
outrageous condition of affairs as he knew
would he sure to prevent his return. More
over he so timed his resignation as that it
should go into effect before he could reach
Washington, and thus he cannot withdraw
it if he would.
In fact, the Governor has grown sick of
such au empty honor. Like Reeder and
Shannon, he fancied before going to Karosas
that he was really to Lo I ot ernor, but a
brief experience was sufficient to teach him
that the national appointee is a mere man
of straw. Das id If. Atchison is, and has
been as nitwit the Governor of Kansa, as
Brigham Young, is of [tall, and like him,
too, in defiance of all law, of civil regula
tions. There is a fictitious slow of a terri
torial government maintained at Leeomptou
but the capital is located at Platte City,
Missouri, from whence emanate all orders,
laws, writ, of arrest, etc., for the subjuga
tion of the refractory people of Kansas.
Dr ITH OrELIAOLr E . L A ss...— We have the
unwelcome duty of announcing the death of
Elliott E. Lane, brother of Miss Harriet Lane,
and nephew of President Buchanan and of the
late John N. Lane, of this city. lie died sud
denly and unexpectedly, about half past nine
o'clock, Thursday morning, of inflammation of
the bowels. He had been unwell for a day or
two, having taken a slight cold while planting
some trees at Wheatland ; but nothing serious
was apprehended from it, either by the family
or his physician; and no alarm was felt until
a very short time before his death, and then
it suddenly became apparent that all efforts to
save him from the grasp of the grim mes
senger" would be useless. Mr. Lane was a
young man possessing excellent and commen
dable traits of character, and his death is not
only a severe shock to his relatives and inti
mate friends, but will be generally lamented
by our citizens. The receipt of its intelligence
at the White House, in Washington, was as
unexpected as unwelcome, and must have as
suddenly cnanged the scene there from joy to
mourning, as the electric spark that carried
it. Mr. Lane was considered the favorite
nephew of Mr. Buchanan, and as principally
possessing his confidence and regard; and his
death will therefore be the more keenly felt,
from the fact that no intelligence of his being
ill had been communicated to his sister or the
President—and the first information that reach
ed them was that of his sudden and unexpect
ed departure.—lnland Daily.

AN EDITRESS % . /TIIOLT A WANDROBE.-Mr2.
Prewett, the editress of the Yt.zno City (Miss.)
American Banner, recently visited New Or.
leans, where she met with a sad mishap—
nothing mote serious, liewefer, than the loss
of her trunk„ containing helwardrobe, jewel
ry, &c. She says in her parr :
I request that if this notice falls under the
eye of any steamboat otliceit or any body else,
that knows anything of my strayed property,
I hope he will advise me oflits whereabouts,
as 1 am much inconvenience and distressed at
its loss. My name, 11. P. Pewett, is painted
on one end, so there can bed mistake about
its ownership. If any thiet pas got it, I can
only say that he must have I heart, indeed, to
rob an editor of a 10 ississipil newspaper. No !
human natuie is bad enough. God knows, but
there can be no one mean dough for that !
If, however, any one has talen it by mistake,
Nit him send it back, end ni questions will be

GOOD Anvice BADLY BEIRIVED.—Governor
Gardner, of Massachusetts,in his recent pro
clamation for the annual State Fast, made the
following excellent suggestiins to the clergy :
May those called to milister at God's al
tar, impressed with the trath tbat national
transgressions can only be corrected by re
moving individual stria, abstain from political
discussions and secular consderations."
This suggestion says the Boston Atlas, is
" not received by the puilic in a manner
complimentary to his Excellency," and quotes
paragraphs from several paters in illustration
01 the fact. Nevertheless it is eminently just.
Men are much more wdlint to humble them
selves for the sins of others than for their own.
With the Pharisee's pride tley can lament the
condition of " this publican " but have no con
ception of the fact that in eight of God he is a

of Commerce.
MmEsom.—Ex•Governor Ramsey, in an
address at an agricultural fair in Minnesotta,
says there is yet room in that territory for a
million and a half more of farmers. He thinks
Minnesota will some day produce more corn
and wheat than any other state in the Union.
He repudiates the idea that the climate is too
cold for people from the old states. He repre
sents the climate as equable and steady not sub
ject to frequent changes, and decidedly favora
ble to health. A system of railroack is already
commenced that will give access to markets,
and enable farmers to get prices for their sur
plus products and stocks nearly equal to those
of Illinois. Be says that from Minnesota to
the foot of the Rocky Mountains, a distance of
nearly a thousand miles, there is good farming
land nearly all the way, and abundance of tim
ber.
A PLEASANT SI'EPIIIE PARTY.—The Wor
cester, (Mass.) Spy says—The parishoners of
Rev. J. G. Adams, preacher to the Universal
ist Society in this city, called at his residence
on Tuesday evening, aid made themselves
perfectly at home 11/ the ab,ence of their pastor.
On his return Rom an evening call, he found
the house literally crammed with people, and
the tables loaded with ben itiful and substantial
presents, among which was a purse containing
two hundred dollars in gold. We are glad to
notice such exhibitions of kindness and good
will, for they illustrate that happy condition
of the society which is nost favorable to its
prosperity.
A MAN Cur rs Two.—The town of Benton,
Indiana, a few days mu: was thrown into

upon a worthless fellow who had been loafing
about Brake's wagon shop Being hasty and

RIGHTS OF TEACIIF:RS.—In the Supreme Court
at Portland, on Tuesday, Geo. B. Elden, keep
er of a high school at Windhan, was tried for
assaulting a pupil. Judge Davis charged that
the master in a school acted in the same ca
pacity as a parent at home, and had the right
to enforce obedience to school rules by proper
punishment, and left the jury to decide wheth•
er this right was exceeded in this case. The
jury returned a verdict of not guilty. The
case was tried previously before a justice of
the peace, and the teacher was fined $5, and
appealed.

W. A. STOKE q, k:SQ.—The Sabiol,tlea arti
cle, ta4ken from the Philadelphia Eennsylva
nice, And which originally appeared 1/1 the
Greensburg Democrat, will be of interest to
our Democratic friends. the Pennsylvanian
says:---15 Air. Stokes spent the first years ,of
his professional life at the Philadelphia Bar
and is familiar with the practice of our Courts
here. lie is a native of Philadelphia, and his
talents are known amongst us better than those
of any lawyer or judge out of the city :"
y the appointment of Judge Black to
the Attorney Generalship of the United States,
a vacancy PAS been pleated upon the Supreme
Bench of this State, which will be filled by
Governor Pollock until the election. It will
be necessary for the Democratic State Con
vention to re.assernhle to nozninate an addi
tional candidate for that position.
In looking over the list of gentlemen named
in connection with that nomination, we find
no one whose nomination, in our opinion,
would be so desirable as that of a distinguished
citizen of our own county: we allude to Win.
A. Stokes, Esq.
In our opinion, there are several requisites
for an available candidate for that vacancy.
Ist. The candidate should be taken from [he
Bar. In other words, he should be one who
has not forgotten the difficulties of the pro
fession.
W. He should be a Western man. All the
other candidates upon our State Ticket have
been taken from the East, and it would be but
an act of simple justice to the West to give
this section of the State the candidate for this
office.
3d. He should be a party man; for so long
as these offices are filled upon party grounds,
it is but right they should be g iven to the
men who have done service for th e party.
4th. He should be a man of ability, and a
lawyer of reputation.
sth. He should be of an age at which his
judgment is matured, and he should not be of
that age when his faculties aie in any degree
impaired.
In all these essentials, Mr. Stokes has been
eminently favored. As a lawyer, he stands
among the highest of the profession in Pennsyl
vania. His mind is strong and active, and a
ready discriminating judgment points him out
as the proper man for the position. As an
orator, we have never heard his superior.—
With a chaste and easy speech, a smooth and
pleasant manner, and a convincing power of
reason, he is,indeed, a model orator. As a
party man, th ose who heard and read his elo.
quent appeals for the Constitution and the
Union, in the first campaign, will readily pass
the judgment of their hearts in his favor. He
has just about reached the proper ag4 for that
Bench, being neither too old nor too young.
We trust that when the State Convention
meets, it will do honor to itself and to the
Democratic party by the selection of the man
we have named."
CoLuatinax Guano.—The attention of our
subscribers is directed to the advertisement in
this paper of Messrs. Richards & Miller, of
Philadelphia; and we quote from distinguished
Agricultural Journals in regard to the Colum
bian Guano they advertise.
"This article is gradually coming more into
use amongst farmers. It has already estab
lished a favorable reputation, gaining decided
confidence as a prominent fertilizer.
Agriculturists in Maryland and adjoining
States, who have given it a trial, speak most
favorably of the practical results. An espe
cial desideratum is, its cheapness when com
pared with Peruvian Guano, and its more last
ing effect upon soils. The nutritious or ferti
lizing ingredients of this fertilizer cannot be

ficiently convincing and efficacious to warrant
its future rise. We have seen highly satisfac

The undersigned, members of th e committee, d
se,pcetfu'dy report, thut \\e 'MAW me two origi.••
tinily agreed upon by Farrel &Ilerri.ng, and Eitans
Watson, placed ride by side in tt furnace. viz:
The Safe in upe by the Paymaster of the Vi iladel

Heading. manufactured by Farrel. tr. Herring. and. •
the Safe in uPe by it A. Lantz, In bin store. manu
factored by Evans & Watson, and put iu boolt.pre
et•rly alike.
The fire was started nt Si o'clock A. M., and kept,
up until four cords of green hickory, two cords dry
oak and half chestnut top wood were entirely eantf .
sumed. the whole under the supermtendence of the
subscrtbers, members of the committee. 7he Safest
were then cooled off with water, after which they.,
were opened. and the books nod papers taken
by the committee and sent to II A. Lantz's store for ;
public examination, after they were first examined' 1'
and marked by die Committee. The book. and pa
pers taken from the Safe manufactured by Evans arid
Watson were but slightly affected by the intense heat ,
while those taken from the Safe manufuetuted.t
by Ferrets and Herring were 111 our Judgment dam-
aged fully fifteen per cent. more than those taken
from Evans A Watson's Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair and int
partial trial of the respective qualities of both safes.
