A SMUCGLEICS NATIRATIN - K.—" We shall be, my dear madtm," said I to a fellow pa , senger in the l - 11...sppe boat, taking out my watch, hut keeping my eye steadily upon her, "we shall be in less than ten minutes at the Custom flouse." A spa=m —a flicker from the guilt within—glanced over her countenance. "'You look very good-natured, sir," stammered she. I bowed, and looked considerably more so, in order to incite her confidence: "If I was to tell you a secret, which I find' is too much to hecp :ti euvselr. oh, would you keep it in ?" " I know it, my dear madam— I know it already," said I, smiling; " it is lace, is it not?" She uttered a Utile shriek, and, yes, she has got it there among the crinoline. Blie thought it had been sticking out, you see, unknown to her. "Oh, sir," cried she, " it is only ten pounds' worth ; please to forgive me, and I'll never do it again. Asit . is, I think I shall expire." "My dear madam," replied I, sternly but kindly, ." here is the pier, and the officer has fixed his eye upon us. I must do my duty." I rushed up the ladder like a lamp-lighter; I pointed that woman out to a legitimate authority ; I ac.:.ompanied her upon her way, in cuytodY, to the searching house. I did not see her searched, but I saw what was found upon her, and I saw her fined and dismissed with ignominy. Then, hav ing generot:sligiv:en up my emoluments as informer to the subordinate officials, I hur ried off in search of the betrayed Woman to her hotel. I gave her lace twice the value of that she had lost; I paid her fine, and tb.ra I explaine,l, " You, =aim, had ten pcunds' worth of smuggled goods about your persOn ; Y had nearly fifty times that amount turned informer, madam, let me convince you, fur the sake of both of us. you have too expressive a countenance, believe me, and the officer would have found you out at all events, even as I did myself. Are you satisfied, 'my dear madam? If you still feel agravated or injured by me in any manner, pray take inure lace ; here is lots of it." We parted the best of friends. Wl.lO Does it HIT ?—A writer, probably conversant with the little faults and foibles of people says. with telling irony, "'Keep your eye on your neighbor-. Take care of them. Ihm't let them stir without watch ing. They may do something wrong if you do. To be sure you never knew them to do anything very bad, but it may be on your account they have nut. Perhaps if it had not been for your kind care, they might have di , graced themselves and families, al long time ago. Therefore don't relax any effort to keep them where they ought to be; never mind your own business, that will take care of itself. There is a man passing along; he is looking over the fence—be sus picious of him, perhaps he contemplates stealing something some of these dark nights, there's no knowing what queer fan cies he may have got lute his head. If you see any symptoms of any one passing out of the path of duty, tell every oop s else that you" can see, and be rtafticulF to see a great many. It is a 409 way to circulate such things, and though it may not benefit yourself, or any one else particularly, it will be something important ahout some one :else. Do keg p something ! lenee is a dreadful thing : though it is said there was silence in Heaven for the space of half an hour; don't let any such a thing oc cur en earth ; it would be too much like HeaN en, for the inhabitan ti of this mundane sphere. If, after all your watchful care, you can't see any thing out of the way in any one you may Le sure it is nt because they have not dune anything bad ; perhaps in an unguarded mment, you lost sight of them—throw out hints that they arc no bet ter than they should be—that you should not wonder if people found out what they a ere after a a bile, and then they may nut carry theirheads su high. Keep it going: and some will take the hint and begin to help you after a while—then there will be music, and every-thing will work to a charm."

At a period when Pennsylvania interests are beginning to assert their claims to consideration, any movement by so responsible a body as the Philadelphia Board of Trade, having for its object the reinvigorating of the general business of the State, must command at tention, and may result most beneficially. In any event, if the request of the commit tee is complied with, a mass of statistics will be Lid before a body of intelligent business men out of whose hands it will he likely to come in a practical shape, for the information of the public. In pursuance of a resolution of the ex ecutive council of the Board :If Trade of Philadelphia, the undersigned have been appointed a committee of the Board to oar repond with influential c,rporations and individuals throughout the State, for 'the purpose of obtaining themost extensive and accurate information possible, with regard to the present depress ed condition of the Industrial and Manufacturing interests of Pennsylvania ; as well as to elicit their opinion upon the causes which have pro duced this depression, and the proper rem edy therefor. We therefore beg leave to address you upon this subject, soliciting a reply at your earliest convenience. We would be glad to learn, to such an extent as you zany be will ing to communicate, for so desirable an end, the general condition within the past fifteen years, of the Manufacturing and Industrial interests with which you are most familiar ; the period of their highest prosperity, and the progress and extent of its decline ; to gether with your view of the immediate causes of such depression, if any exists, and your opinion of the proper measures to be taken fur the restoration of their former prosperity and ‘l4c.r. We shall be glad, also :to receive any collateral information liearing on this sub ject, within the range of your observation, more especially in regard to the necessary participation of the Agricultural interests of your neighborhood in this depression of the industrial and producing communities.

A LITTLE BIT OF HORSE TALF.--OR Thurs day, 2.Bth ult., Christian Millis° appeared before Justice Welsh asking a warrant fclr the arrest of a stranger , name unknown, who had ridden away on the steed of Mr., George Hepperle, of . this borough, with no intention—as into/twit believed and was willing to swear—of returning the same. The prayer of petitioner was entertained by the Court, and a warrant plageil in Aft hands of Hollingsworth, Ist Division, Mounted Police, directing him to take the body of ——, and produce him at the Blue Front. Mounted on his dry charger, the official departed, centre a Terre, and disap peared in the bridge with the velocity of a moderately dischargedlarrow. Being aimed with precision he hit the hole of the farther end, emerging into the Borough of Wrights vino.. surrounded by a halo of dust, and an admiring crowd of small boys. He was successful in his mission, and the same eve ning brought to the judgment-seat, one John (draw, of the city of Lancaster, as the ab sconding. equestrian, John, with the bravery of conscious inno cence, and a knowledge of law, kept a stiff upper lip, conducting his defense skillfully and successfully. lie proved that his em ployer, a Lancaster trader, had been seized with a desire to become possessed of the horse of Hepperle, by means of a swap, and to the end of more fairly conducting the negotiation had induced the latter individual to accompany him to the:neutral ground of York County, where the exchange was con summated, and the bargain sealed in a copious flow of lager. Grow was dispatched for the animal, and his ingenious manner of obtaining it at the hands of Hirnese excited that gentleman's suspicion, hence the com plaint. Prosecution attempted to prove a swindle, but the case was dismissed by the magis trate ; llirnese for costs. We understand that llepperle, consider ing hini.elf over-reached in the transaction, the dealer having closed his eye with a wretched charger in exchange for a very good horse, intends seeking justice in York County. TERRIOLE SUFFERINGS FROM "BURNING FLUID."—On Tuesday, 2nd inst., a good looking German, bight Hans Focht, applied at the Blue Front for accommodations for the night. Being of the race of Cain in the estimation of the keepers of the Ger man Hostelries of the town—Hans was a Svroope—he had been refused by them bed and board; and with an eye to a bivouac in the street, or haply a curb-stone pillow and a gutter ,bed, be had prudently fortified his inner man with as many drinks as were ob tainable under the circumstances. The Squire discouraged the encampment project. While admitting the soundness of the great Squatter Sovereignty principle as a political dogma,•t or dodge, he apprehended in the preset instance the jumping, of the Squatter's claim on the part of Hollingsworth, Richard, or some unauthorized deputy. The magis trate is generally impartial in his recom mendation of the tradesmen, landlords and others of Columbia, when an occasion offers fur advice to anxious inquirers, but in the pre-cut instance he volunteered as touter for the Hotel des Etrangers, better known as the Borough Inn, and highly extolled the bar, table and shake down of that literally patronized first-class establishment. Focht unhesitatingly adopted the Squire's sug gestion, and Hollingsworth was requested to show the gentlemen to his room. In the morning the recipient of the Bor ough hospitalities was brought up to the Captains office to settle, when instead of a graceful rendering of thanks fur the favors bestowed, Justice Welsh was overwhelmed with objugations in such complicated black Dutch, that his limited knowledge of the language failed to make him sensible of the point at issue. A wayside interpreter was ' called in, and the address was reiterated, at second hand. Tran.lated into intelligible English, Foclit's tirade resolved itself into a com plaint of the borough acommodations. He intisighed against the apartment as close, .I.wip and nu-ty, the bed as disgustingly filthy, and characterized the entire estab went al lather a pen for the impounding of e-truy swine, than a harbor of refuge for indigent and unfortunate christians. His heaviest attack, however, was directed against the deficiencies in the department of refreshment. He, Hans Focht, had en tered the subterranean with his blood nt fever heat from the fire within, and all through that thousand year night had the undying conflagration raged around and around his ventral cavern, raced up and down his parched alimentary canal, issued in Simeon gusts from his encrusted mouth, scorching, searing; roasting, baking, stew tng, broiling, frying, sizzling; in short, sub jecting him in every member to the question by fire. He humbly asked what crime he had committed that he should!be thus mar tyrized l Surely the fact of his having voluntarily kindled the fire should not cut off his water! More in anger than in sorrow be inquired why this little municipal Hades was not furnished with at least a bucket of the Water Company's best I fi , quiro Thomas Welsh had no word to say in defense. He could not deny that the stranger had fared hardly, but he c ,old not send the Borough down for thirty days, so be pronounced sentence of banish ment against the Swoope, and handed over the Corporation to the justice of " Our Special." P. R. R. YIIAIN OFF TOE TRACK.—On Tues day, 2nd inst., Constable Hollingsworth ar rested and arraigned before Esquire Welsh a party "on a train," and very heavily freighted. The 'Squire opened the services with the usual intimation that inebrity in the streets of the borough was contrary to the statutes and to good morals, and referred the miserable offender to back files of the Spy for the fate of the transgressor. The prisoner was asked i I he had anything to say in his defense—any good reason to urge why the sentence of the law should not be passed upon him. He got off a rather in co.,berent statement, being evidently too much in awe of the magistrate to speak freely.— The gist of his remarks was that he ans wered to to the name of James Brown, and bad long been in the employ of the F. R. R. Co. The Justice knowing that strict so briety prevail on the Philadelphia Division, questioned prisoner as to his locality and discovered him to be of the Westerh Divis ion. James made no end of good promises, and the 'Squire after an appeal touching enough to move the conscience of a money lender, discharged the offender with an ad monition to go and drink no more. For the Columbia Spy MR. SJET:—Why do we Columbians need so much governing? 'Why should our Bo rough Fathers be called upon to legislate the hour upon which we may open our money-sack and supply ourselves with a pound of butter, or a slab of bonny-clabber? In other civilized communities, the day be ing named for holding regular markets, folks are supposed to be able to act for themselves, as to what time they will pur purchase. Here we must await a certain click of the town horologe, or, failing its action, the whim of some pompous official. Can't folks see the advantage Johnny Bump kin takes of our hungry looks, as we stand ready to grasp with greedy hand his com modities at a given signal? We pay at least twenty-five per cent more than we should were the market to be opened, say at day light in the morning. Then the laboring man might supply his wants untroubled by excessive prices, or crowded from hiti pro prieties by showy crinoline in the pursuit of notoriety. Won't our Council look to it? Nov. 5, 1858. PETER SISICLE. TIIE ELECTIONS.—The Electiona of last Tuesday seem to have generally resulted, as our own, adversely to the National Admin istration. We give below the summary of the returns as far as received : The result of the election in Illinois is - in doubt. As far as heard from, the Legisla ture stands thus: House, 35 Republicans, 33 Democrats, 7 doubtful; Senate, 11 Demo crats, 3 doubtful. Delaware goes Democratic—electing a Democratic Governor, Congressman and Legislature, the latter ensuring a Demo cratic U. S. Senator. New York State elects the whole Repub lican State ticket, by at least twenty thou sand majority, and a Republican Legisla ture, beside; all the members of the Con gress except five. Thiskin, anti-Lecompton Democrat, is unfortunately beaten in the Ninth district, by the Administration can didaie. In New York city the whole Dem ocratic municipal ticket is elected. In Wisconsin and Michigan the Republi cans carry everything, including all mem bers of Congress. New Jersey elects five members of Con gress for the Opposition, including Adrian, anti-Lecompton Democrat. To the State Legislature of New Jersey we have elected 35 Opposition and 25 Dem ocratic Assemblymen, while the Senate is controlled by anti-Lecompton Democrats. The majority on joint ballot is sufficient to elect an Opposition 11. S. Senator. Since the above news later intelligenge shows the success of Douglas in Illinois, and,the election of llaskin in New York.

FELLOW-CITI2ENB.—The goodness of God to us as a people calls for our public ac knowledgement and our grateful praise.— The past and the present are crowded with Ills blessings. Nothing has occurred to imperil the prineples of civil and religions liberty upon which our Government is based, or to interfere with its harmonious operations in all departments. We are at peace with all foreign nations, and the noise of violence is unheard within our borders. While all enjoy perfect freedom of opinion, the genial influences of our free institutions; and the mild spirit of our holy religion, are more and mole uniting us iu our brother hood. Our educational institutions are dif fusing intelligence among the masses of our citizens, inducing a higher appre ciation of their privileges, and a deep er sense of their obligations. Though in some localities the pestilence has prevailed, our country at large has enjoyed unusual health, and we are blessed with an abun dance of all the necessaries and comforts of life. Our industrial pursuits are fast re covering from the torpor induced by the recent financial embarrasroents; confidence is being restored, and business is resuming its wonted activity. Mercies crown all our relations in life, and the hopes of a glorious immortality wait to cheer and bless every heart. Prompted by my own convictions of duty, and in conformity with the expressed wishes of many of my fellow citizens, I, WM. F. PACKER, Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania do hereby appoint Thurs day, the Eighteenth day of November, next, to he observed as a day of general Thanks giving and Prayer, and reccommend to all our pcople that setting aside all worldly pursuits, they assemble in their respective places of worship, and unite in offering thanks to God for Ills goodness, imploring His gracious forgiveness, and the continu ance of His mercies, and while our hearts throb with gratitude to God for His un nowhere(' blessings, let a liberal charity be extended to all upon whom have been laid the burdens of misfortune and want. Given under my hand, and the Great Seal of the State, at Harrisburg, this twenty eighth day of October, in the year of our Lord one 'thousand eight hundred and fifty-eight, and of the Commonwealth the etghty-third. W'. M. 'HESTER, Secretary of the Commonwealth. A LITTLE DIFFICULTY rar TUE lirsv.—An enterprising traveling agent for a well known Cleveland Tomb Stone Manufactory lately made a business visit to a small town in an adjoining county. Hearing in the village that a man in a remote part of the township had lost his wife, be thought he would go and see him, and offer him oonso lation, a grave stone, on his usual reason able terms. lie started. The road was a horribly frightful one, but the agent perse vered and finally arrived at the bereaved man's house. Bereaved mares hired girl told the agent that the bereaves man was splitting fence rails "over in the pastur about two miles." The indefatigable agent bite/Jed his horse and started for the "pas tur." After falling into all manner of rand boles, scratching himself with briars, and tumbling over decayed logs, the agent at length found the bereaved man, In a sub dued voice be asked the man if bad lost his wife. The man said ho had. The agent was very sorry to bear of it and sympathi zed with the man very deeply in his great affliction; bat death, he said, was an insati ate archer, and shot down all of both high and low degree. Informed the man that •' what was her loss was bis gain," and would be glad to sell biro a grave stone to mark the spot where the beloved one slept —marble or common stone, as he chose, at prices defying competion: The bereaved man said there was " a little difficulty in the way." " Haven't you lost your wife ?" inquired the agent. "'Why yes, I have," said the man, " but no grave stun is neces sary ; you see the cussed critter ain't dead. She's scooted with another man !" The agent retired. TIIE PnrLosorrry or PLAYING Low.—At the recent reception of the new engine by the Boyden Engine Company, Waltman, Rev. Thomas Hill, of that town, who was unable to be present, sent in a letter, in which is the following paragraph, which contains a valuable hint: " When the sad fire at the corner of Cen tral and Newton street was raging, some years ago, I went with a friend from another State, an old fireman, to look on. He re marked that those who held the pipe seemed to him not sufficiently governed by the great principle which is the secret of all success in battling with fire. This principle is ex pressed in the most important precept, play /ow! Throw your water—not on the top of the fire, where it will be turned aside by roofs, floors, and other obstructions, or, touching the fire, will fly off in useless vapor—but throw it at the lowest burning point, that the _steam generated may as cend through the fire and smother it— throw the water at the lowest burning point, which is by its ascending heat en couraging the whole fire—destroy first that ringleader of the riot." DAVID AND GOLIAU.-A preacher, who we believe ro be of the Methodist pursuasion, who used to bold forth to out-door audien ces in this town, was preaching once at Forbestown, from a text which had some bearing on the David and Goliah combat.— The old fellow (the preacher) had some quaint and original ideas of his own, and was'nt afraid to speak them out. Alluding to the probable cause of David's heroic con duct, and his readiness to engage in mortal combat with the giant, he said: "Now, my hearers, what do you suppose was the reason that David was so mighty willin' to go out and fight Goliah? Was it because ho wanted to serve God? No.— was it because he had religion into him?— No. Was it because be wanted to do good generally? No. "I'll tell you what he done it for, and there ai'nt no use o' anybody denyin' it.— He was struck after one of Saul's galsr— (Sensation-)—Rtitte Record. A GOVERNOR Nos PLUSSED.—The other night as the Ministers were returning from Conference, on the E. T. (Ga.) Railroad, an amusing occurrence took place between Gov. Brown and Parson Brownlow. Just before the cars arrived at Knoxville, Gov. Brown came up, and taking the Parson by the hand remarked: " How do you do, brother Brownlow Y I am happy to see you." The courtesy was returned, when the Gor. continued : "I hope you will moderate in all your notions of propriety in regard to your fel low-citizens—lire like a good Christian— and last, though not least, become a good Democrat." The Parson with the eccentric look pecu liar to himself, stretched himself up and re marked : " Governor, an old gentleman of your politics, many hundred years ago, took our Saviour upon a mountain and preached just such a sermon." The outburst of laughter can be better imagined than described.—Cin. Gazette. Penn'a 8.. B..—Departnre of Passenger Trains. Lea' g Columbia,.
