Soacueit Mot,asscs.--Wo neglected through forgetfulness, last week, to notice a sle linen of molasses manufactured from the Chinese .`. 4 .igar cane f o r which we arm indebted to Mr. S, 11. Purple, of the Hill side No r:Cry. WC have given it a fair tri al at the table and pronounce it decidedly the best in flavor that has yet been submit ted to us. It has none of the raw taste so marked in most of the samples we have tried, and conies nearer good syrup than anything made from the same kind of cane. Mr. Purple is a practical manufacturer of maple sugar, and his e.‘perience in boiling has proved valuable to him 111 his experi ment with the new cane. Mr. Thomas Stewart has also furnished us with a sample of the same kind of mo lasses, manufactured after a receipt of his own, which appears to be a first-rate article. We have had no opportunity of fully test ing, its merits but the consistency appears perfect and the color remarkably good.

The country must he once more saved and the newspapersagaiu ask us to -vote early." We, of the Spy, are blessed with an inde pendence of political turmoil and du not feel it a duty to our readers or our pocket that we should heap dirt on the head of either candidate. We are happily free from the necessity (for can an editor do justice to any great principle without blackening the character of all opponents?) of damning Stevens and cursing Hopkins. We admit the argument that because the former originated the "Tape Worm" he should not be sent to Congress, fur the question of a railroad over the South moun tain is a vital one and likely to be promi nently before that legislative body; nor can we deny the equally convincing thunder of the Opposition, that Mr. 11. has originated no great measure, good, bad or indifferent, therefore is unfit to represent this enter prising and particularly intelligent Con gressional • district. We cheerfully agree with our political exchanges that neither of the anxious inquirers fur the "right and ready way" to Washington are proper char acters to go abroad unfettered—they say so and we must believe them—but we are free to be thankful that nor contract with the public dues not contain a clause corn pclibig us to the utterance of these and like unpleasant truths. Hitherto we have been politically - silent beyond the announcement of the candidates of the respective parties, and a brief spirit of enthusiastic advocacy lof our friend A. S. Green, to whom we here declare unflagging fealty, (may every man c in the County vote fur hint.) but in this, our i t-sue previous to the election, the sub ject demands a few words. The main in terest of course centres on the struggle for Moodier of Congress. The Peop'e's party having nominated Mr. Stevens, unquestion ably its ablest man, us well us the most ' obnoxious to the ruling powers, the De mot-rats put up against him Mr. James M. Il++l bin an old line It'hig, who attached himself to their party when Know Nothing ' ism g.tte a temporary quietus to both the great antagonists in the struggle for politi cal power. The Democratic party was only scofthed, and re.surgam wits its epitaph, aline ci fl it may still lie appropriately read lon the slab lvhich cover the remains of its I rival. Mr. Hopkins connected himself with the Democratic rather than with either of its opponents, the Republican or American partie:, and supported Mr. Buchanan for the Presidency. Ito is a gentleman of un stillyNl character and very popular with al: classes of peeplo wherever known. His oc cupation, as ma: to of one of the most im portant iron works in the county, puts his integrity as a tariff maa beyond a doubt, and this, in view of the present excitement on that important question, it is hoped a aid in recommending him to popular favor. In his speech to the convention oil his nom- ination he avowed himself in favor of th, admission of Kansas under any constitution wheuever slit may present herself, thus vir tually abandonilig Mr. Buchanan's Le.mmp ton test. Mr. 11. has been too recently brought forward to suffer as much from partisan blackguardism as his rival. Mr. Ste% cm: career has been eventful, and hi. pa , t political sins are now summed up in dollars and cents, and logically or illog 7 - eally, urged as so many good reasons fur his defeat at the coming election. his 4,1,1 unflinching opposition to the gencrall dirminant democracy and his telling blows are unfurgotten and unforgiven. He is the bitterest foe of that party and the 01.irct 01 its most intense hatred. "Thad. Stevens, the Abolitionist." expresses at the same time beyond all other words, the concentra tion of Democratic loathing and the blackest Black Republican iniquity. Mr. Stevens avows himself opposed to the extension of slat ery but repudiates all desire to interfere with the peculiar institution M Ilerc) at Fres ent existing under state government. The struggle in the County is a warm one and more feeling is exhibited than in any similar contest for many years. Doti. candidates are stumping the di-met pretty thoroughly, and, rr•ith their friends, tuldr( .4ing the mighty and independent 1,..01,1c.

"Wit r.: , ;TCLI MEET DUTCII," &C.—On Friday, Ist inst., Heinrich j Bush, Frank Goldschtuidt and Fritz Miller, all Teutons, were arrested by High Constable Derrick and posse and brought before Justico Welsh, charged with drunkenness, disorderly con duct, breach of the peace, vagrancy, gene ral worthlessness and other dire oTences and crimes to this deponent unknown. The party belonged to that useful class, the des titute laborer seeking work, with an eye -ingle to cold victual or pecuniary relic: preference. Arriving at the Basin after a -ucce , sful collecting tour the "distressed opperati%cs" clubbed their resources with a , iow to provision against a furture wet dta. and invested in Lager. Bush, who is GU seamof age, sank under his potat:ons, and took p3bition in the gutter near the Colum bia Iron Works, wLere be addressed him self to the doop sleep whicha peaceful heart, an easy conscience and a skin full of lager so eminently induces. Watched uver by- the -pedal angel of the "hazy," his bodily in tegrity was preserved, hut while the guar dian slept with one eye, Miller came like a thief in the night and relieved the old man of his shoes. These were parted with 1. , y the false friend at a sacrifice, for G2l- cents, and-the proceeds bartered for the bevera4e which is not intoxicating, in the consump tion of which Guldschmidt participated.— The convives split on the odd glass and be took themselves to a pugilistic ad justment %,f their claims, in which encounter Miller sacrificed one half of at lung-tailed, old coun try coat: it parted down the back, and was given to the winds by his antagonist. The whirlwind of battle was checked up by the myrmidons of the law, and the cunflig3,ad journed, fur final settlement by Jud t 'k Ad vocate Welsit, who sat upon the case and with admirable impartiality graduated the residence at Cadwellville of the respective offenders in accordance with their previous suffering. Bush, iu consideration of the loss of his shoes was let off with 20 days: Miller, less happy in the disappearance of only , half his coat, gut 25 days, while Gold ,,clunidt, sharing equally with the others in die lager and rejoiciug in inviolate integu ments, was deemed worthy of 30 days—all at hard labor. "WITO STrItiCK BILLY PATTERSON?"—On 31(111day last R—l—d P—tters—n, (we adopt this ingenious hieroglyphic at the in- stance or the magi-arate, out of considera tion for the feelings of the defendant who particularly requested that his case should not be reported for the Spy,) the Washing tn house "Propeller," was brought before Justice Welsh, on conip!aint of Constable Hollingsworth, with drunkennesi, and disorderly conduct, Sabbath breaking.. &e., Sac., &e. Much interest was manifested in this ease from the prominence of the pri soner, and sufficient testimony was offered to criminate the Hill and justify- a wholesale sentence of 30 days against the orderly pop ulation of that locality. One, and only one instance of anything approaching unwilling ness to impart general information was that of an officious darkoy with hair cut a la Ab t•olom, who first volunteered the statement that he alone was cognizant of the full par ticulars of the case, then asserted the abso lute impossibility of extracting a word with out the preliminary cash payment of his witness fees. A reluctant uubosoming, was, however, immediately effected by the illqUi9- itonial interposition of a pro-pective 3U days for contempt of court. With Passmore Williamson in his eye he gala in. A brief summary of particulars must take the place of detailed testimony, which would require an extra. • On Sunday, R—ly, filled with red-eye and playfulness, steamed up Union street.

In the harmless, sportis e "way he's got," cuffed James—cuffed hint twice, in the fullness of his heart. James uprose and "went in," when Sir Rolando, the har row knight, found hitnself, after the recep tion of a shower of rattling blows and kicks, in the middle of Union street. The short witne above mentioned, testified to the prisoner's frantic efforts to get at Jones, whose utter destruction he vowed if not withheld. Ile was accordingly hi, f:•iclids and confined to a ter b I warfare. Bnl sides, aided by partisans front all quarters of the ILO, cut rigid o r :t conflict of invective which was only inter rupted by the arrival of Hollingswmth, who turned down the gas and escorted no—hallo: we almost forgot—ll-1y to the cellar, where that frolicsome youth abode until Monday manning. The Justice, in view of these facts, sen eaced prisoner to pay a fine of S-I fur the ~enefit of the school fowl, (fur violating the Sabbath,) and on the remaining counts of the indictment adjudged him guilty, ordered him to pay the costs and give security Cro good behavior form° months ("Oh, Madely! Lawd, Squi Oil") all of which was duly e , tn plied with.• Jones, for repelling R—ly's little advances with more than necessary noise and pr , ,fanity, was mulcted to his no small astonishment. Items of News Thereare seventeen banks in Pennsylvania, east of the Allegliany mount.ins, not in chided in the Philadelphia arrangement for specie redemption. They have a capital of 'f',500, 1 7.'00. and a eirenlati. , n l , large as the wenty-two redeeming banks, with a capital ce million 3. The U. S.

She brings fineen of the passengers and set en of the crew of the I,lt steamer, making, with those picked up by the 31sturit.e, eighty-nice persons in ail saved front the burning ship. this of the re-cued passengers is a young girl of four teen years. None of the Philadelphians who were on the Austria appear on the list. All hope of any of them bciag raved is, therefore, extinguished. Since the first of January the marine losses have been 229 vessels, valued at SG,- 815,391. During September the losses were 20 vessels, valued at $1,128,200. The anthracite coal tonnage on the four leading transportation lines this year has been .3.097,055, against a total of 3,412,034 for the corresponding period last year. The totals this year were, for the Reading nail road, 1,21G,-1:;2; Schuylkill Canal, 895.576; Lehigh Canal. G 2,1",, 733: Lehigh Valley Railroad, :155.317. The last tamed is the only bite showing nn increase. 13,555, while the net decrease of the four lines is 314,976. A deficit of *30,000 has beets discovered in the accounts of the I'ewabic Company, at Boston. A Valentin correspondent of the London Times gives a very longandelaborato report of the troubles to the 4.-clantie telegraph, from -which it seems ant the condition of the cable has been extremely variable ever since the cessation of the signals at sea, during the operation of laying. At times, it was in good working order, and at others quite indifferent. On the 9th of August it began to grow worse, and from that time 'forward increased until the final cessation of all intelligible signals, on the 4th of Sep tember. By numerous experiments, the defect is ascertained accurately to be at 270 miles along the cable, front the Irish coast. and is supposed to be a defect of insulation. This would place the fault at 220 statute miles from Valentia, or just at the point where the bottom descends abruptly to a great depth. In laying the cable, the Agamemnon crossed this bank an hour be fot e the expected time, and consequently did nut allow the requisite slack there. - The New York Crystal Palace was entirely destroyed by fire, on Tuesday together with all the the goods on exhibition there, the American Institute fair being in full blast at the time. Loss half a million dollars.— Insurante small. EEEEECE By the arrival, at New York, of the steam ship Hammonia, from Hamburg and Southampton, and of the Nova Seutian, at Quebec, from Liverpool, we have four days later news from Europe. Among the pas sengers injured by the explosion on board the Hammunia, was Madame Andre, wife of G. Andre, music dealer in Chesnut street, Philadelphia. The question of the Prussian regency has been settled satisfactorily, the Queen withdrawing her pretensions in favor of the Prince of Prussia, who assumes the nominal title of co-regent, but with full power. A Paris correspondentof the London Times, says that the ports of Tahiti and Marquesas are about being declared free.— At the opening of the States General, in Holland, on the 20111, by the King. he ex pressed a hope that body would regard, favorably, the measures concerted fur the abolition of slavery in the Dutch colonies. The Spanish Curies has been dissolved, much to the satisfaction of the Liberal party.— The experiments with the Atlantic telegraph show that the cable has not parted. Faint signals were still received from Newfound land. Another and more distant fault is spoken of, the lecality of - which cannot be ascertained without going to Newfoundland. The Spanish government has ordered a new reinforcement of 3000 troops to Cuba, and all the large naval vessels unemployed are to proceed thither immediately.
