Er The story of the fall of Sebas
.topul and the surrender of the Rus
Sian army of the Crimea, was prema
ture. The, British and French papers
were hoaxc;d.
fa' We arepleased to learn that
the iron Plows, manufactured by
'D. B. Brown at his new foundry, are
giving attire satisfaction wherever
tried. One cf our oldest farmers save
it is the hest plow ever sold in this
We trust our friends will
not think of buying elsewhere, until
they have examined the stock at the
new foundry.

Cir Are the friends of this paper
determined to give it a living support,
or is it to be of the number that hard
times and a scanty support, destine to
a discontinuance I There are lire
men enough in the county to make
the Journal independent in its finan.
cial concerns, and not feel it them.
selves. But to do this, there must be
action soon. Talk will not answer.
We hope this hint will be sufficient,
as this is a subject that we cannot
allude to very often ; and we have no
urging to do.
Pir Our citizens who for nearly a
year have been scantily fed on one
sermon in four weeks, with an occa-.
eional extra preach from some passing
clergyman, are now enjoying a feast
of fat things. Four excellent sermons
-every Sabbath, and sometimes five;
a large and interesting Bible class in
the Sablnah lehool; and prayer meet-.
ing at the sellout house two evenings
in a week.
Besides all these, there has been a
singing school started expressly for
the benefit and improvementolChurch
music. It was opened on Monday
evening last. The teacher is no itin
erant vagabond, but.one of our ITIQ t
respected and substantial villagers, to
whose care and instruction no parent
can fear to commit his child,
crThe Academy reqened on
Wednesday of last week, with twenty-.
eight scholars. By Monday last, the
number bad swelled to fifty--a goodly
number of them being new students-.
and the cry is still .$ they come!"
During the vacation some repairs
were made in the recitation room,,
which add, a good. deal to its comfort
and appearance. No student .who
comes with right motives—the &sire
to learn., and the intention to behave
properly —can fail to „be. benefitted
by being a term' or two under Mr.
Bloomingdale's tuition. The terms
arc pretty high, but no pains will be
spared to give the student the worth
of his money.
We say then " come one, come all'
who want to get a thorough education.
Pill up the old Academy till Mr. F.
will have to cala . rge his bOrder...„ and
can afford to, fit up the grounds, and
make it as pleasant outside the build

N7OI2EAN'S RIGHTS
While some of the woman's rights women
for some days past hive been making speeches
at 4 Convention at Philadelphia in behalf of
their rights, a " bright, particular star . ' of the
sisterhood has been settling tho question for
herself in the old-fitshioned way:
"Married, at Cannel, New-York, on Toes.
day, Octt l bur 17, by Rev. H. G. Livingston,
Dr, Jairkes 11. Merritt to Miss Antoinette
Drown.'"
' Thus, wo presume, the younger sisters of
the woman's rt h.s societies will drop off as
the older ones d sappear, until the last of the
Bloomers "is left blooming alone."
The wit of the above is rather ob
scure, but its baktaste and impertin
ence is unquestionable. If any of the
"woman's rights -women" had made
speeches in Philadelphia or anywhere
else against the marriage relation,
therewouhl be some excuse fur this
universal cackle, set up by old fogydom
at the marriage of Miss Antoinette
Brown; but as telarge majority of the
speakers at the Woman's Rights Con
vention have always been married
ladies, and as none_ of them have ever
said anything against the !elation, we
do not see how any man can give a
decent excuse for writing such a silly
paragraph as the above, •
' Rev. Antoinette Brown, of Soo l l
Butler, N. Y., is not married, but we
do tot, see how, that can affect the
character of these allusions to woman's
rights.
THE NEXT 11. S. SENATOR.
Several prominent
.men have al
ready been named for this important
post. Most of these are entirely out
of the question. A large majority of
the members elect of our Legislature
NS ere chosen on account of their oppo
sition to the Douglas outrage, and
they willundoubtedly elect a Senator,
who has given some evidence of his
opposition to that "scheme. There
have been three men named who have
this, qualification, and only three.
These are A. G. Curtin, of Center,
Wm. Larrimer, Jr., of Pittsburg, and
Hon. David Wilmot, of Bradford.
Either of these woad - worthily repro
sent theAnti-Nebraska sentiment of
the State; but we think the choice
should be between Gen. Larrimer and
.Hon. D. Wilmot—because these men.
have done.more to bring about the
present hopeful public sentiment than !
any other two men in the State. Of
these two, while our partialities lean
to General Larrimer, our judgment is,
that the election of the Hon. DAVID
WIL3IOT CO the Senate of the United
States would be the greatest blow
ever struck atbunkerism in Pennsyl
vania, and therefore we hope those
members of the Legislature who are
in flivor of forming a great Republican
party for the purpose of resisting the
aggressions of Slavery, and of giving
effect to the principles of the Declara
tion of Independence, will unite on
Mr. "Wilmot as their chi:Ace for Sena
tor. Thus we agree in the main with
the following excellent article from
the Wellsborough Agitator :
OUR NEST C. S. SENATOR.-SOOT alter the
passage of the Nebraska bill, the Administra
tion palters grew insMent wilh success, and
chuckled amazingly over the - idea that, as
Senators were chosen for a term of six years,
and as a large majority of the Senate was
friend;y to the aforesa.d infamous bill, the
chances for its repeal were " nowhere" for
the next six years Perhaps the results of the
.Nor.hern elections will canvince those editors
that it is not always safe to add insult to. in
jury, especially when the people are the in
jured piny.
The Legislature of thjs Stale is anti-Nebras- -
ka in both branches by :a fair maioritv. The
House stands 74 kriown anti-Nebraska men
to ii:isome opposed and some favorable.
As an ed Suites Sena:or is to be chosen
next winter, we hope ihe most efficient anti-
Nebraska man in the State will be the unani
m6us choice of that body. The naiional .
Senate has bee:: the refuge of the worst kind
of fogyism too king, and it is high time :hat
it was thoroughly removed. These are the
times that try men's principles—peculiar times,
and peculiar men are wanted io represent
them. PennsyNania needs to be relresetsed
by her best and bras est spirit. She' needs,
and trust have a man of strong points and
deep-set free soil sympalhies-to represent her.
He must be candid and fearless; imbued with
a deep love of Trnffi, Justice, and Humanity.
Ile mnst have proved himself an anti-Ne
braska man from priMciple, and, as such, his
course on that question and kindred ones,
must have been- straittitrward in the past,
under all circumstances. Ile must be neither
a slave to a venal ambition, nor a cringing
worshipper at the shrine of public opinion.
He must he a true MAY; warns wi:h noble im
pulses, shAting his actions' by Reason arid
Intuition no less than by the experience of the
past. Such a. man would confer distinguished
honor upon the judgment of his electors, and
add another name to the list of able statesmen
which Pennsylvanians will remember with
prde and p;e sure. Such a man, and such
only, can help reform the abuses in our legis
lative department, and roll back the tide of
Sodffiern influence which threatens to wholly
corrupt the channels of legislation. Pennsyl
vania has but one such spirit—active in the
Present and provident for the Future—that
man is DAVID WILMOT.
On the arrival of Governor Burt at
Nebraska on the 6th of October, a
reception meeting was held, at which
Gen. Hepner, an agent of the Govern
ment, made the following statement: .
" That satisfactory arrangements had been
made between the Government and -the
Indians, to allow of the immediate settle
ment of the country. Ile had no doubt but
that the whites could live in harmony with
. the Indians the remainder of their Kay,
if they were only careful to maintain the
pledges of the Government, that spirituous
liquors shall be excluded from the settlements.
Plain words were used in speaking of the
folly; danger, and guilt of those who would
' jeopardize the peace and safety of the mit
- numity by pving alcohmic liquors to the In
dians. If liquor was to be g ven to the In
, diens, then no one's peace and life was secure
—no safeguard existed against drunken revels,
and savage ferocity, awakened to madness by
j the ''fire water', which would consume the
peace and safety of those who had come here,
expecting to enjoy the shelter of American
law."
Is there any man in this county who
can deny the truth of the above state
ment 1 Is not the "peace and safety"
of this community just as much jeop
ardized by the sale of intoxicating
drinks as the community in Nebraska?
And if there is folly, danger, and guilt
in giving intoxicating drinks to the
Indians in Nebraska, what shall be
said of a man who will deal out whis
ky with one hand, and votes with the
other on election day ? We submit
these questions to an intelligent com
munity, and ask if they are not enti
tled to serious attention.
THANKSGIVING. Gov. Bigler'
has recommended that Thursday, Nov.
30th, be observed as a day of Thanks
giving and Prayer throughout this
Commonwealth.
MTMM ' 'MnM:II.II
There are a few Whig 'papers 'in
this State that did their best - during
the canvass to keep up the old party
organizations, and which ' , are blind
enough to insist that the Whig party
'of Pennsylvania is yet all - powerful.
It is fortunate for the State that a large
'majority of the Whig papers rose
Superior to such narrow views. and
especially so that the Hon. JAMES
POLLOCK deemed the triumph of prin
ciple of more importance than the
preservation of the Whig organization.
It is apparent to the dullest compre
hension, that Judge POLLOCK owes his
election to his fearless advocacy nf the
great American idea, as proclaimed
in, the Declaration of Independence,
and to his frank and manly efforts in
favor of the suppression of the liquor
traffic. His fearless utterance of the
truth commended him to all good men;
hence his glorious vote. .
But we find in the Abney Luminary
au account of a speech made byJudge
Pot.LocK, since his election, to his
political friends, that adds still further
to the evidence of his fitness for the
station to which the people have
called him. The speech shows the
Governor elect to be the man for the
hour, and we commend it to the care
ful attention of the Erie Gazette,
Bradford Argui, and such other papers
as still' think the Whig: organization
ought to be preserved. According to
the Luminary, Judge Poi.Locx said:
wished it to be remembered, that, at
though he was now, and had been identified
with the Whig party, yet he did not aunt his
election as a Whig victory, nor did his Whig
fronds deem it such, but that it was emphdu
cally a victory of the People over the advo
cates of principles which they could not
sanction or support. To all, alike, Whigs and
Democrats, the victory was to be ascribed as
the result of their own hands.
Such a man deserves to be the
champion of the triumphant party,
and we hope his friends will have the
good sense to drop old distinctions
and unite together in one great, bar,
monious, invincible Republican party.
In relation to the Slavery question--.-
He paid an eloquent tribute to the intelli
gence and patriotism of the people in their
repudiation of the iniquitous Nebraska bill,
and the attemlit to perpetuate the curse of
Slaxery in our land ,by Congre.sional legisla
tion, and said that' freemen everywhere re
yoked at the idea of extending and perpetu
ating oppression and that in the trial hour,
the peepie, trite to their own.instincts and the
lessons taught by their littliers, would be found
on the side of Liberty.
AXIISEMENTS
The Independent of Oct. 12, has an
article on Amusements and Art, ob
jecting to Christians going to. the
opera because it "cultivates a taste for
dramatic representations"—"that it
gives depraved fiction or distorted his
tory set to music;" and even objects
to the "moral dramas of the Bowery
and Museum," meaning, 1 suppose,
"Uncle Tom's Cabin," "Hot Corn,"
etc., and says—" There are, subjects
outside of the Church on whom such
means had best be thoroughly tried,
before she); aro applied to Christian
families."
Then is asked—" Where then shall
Christians find rational entertainment,
and enjoy the refining influence of
music and of other ail?" and among
the answers to this gives the following:
Just now, too, in art, we have the
study of Leutze's great painting *of
WAsnimrros AT MONMOUTH, which
its owner, David Leavitt, Esq.,
.has
generoirsly thrown open to the public,
at the National Academy. We shall
not now-speak critically of this new
achievement of Leutze, as a historical
painter; but no one can study the
action of the horses in the foreground,
the disorderly flight of Lee's detach-
Mem, flue majestic mein of Washing

command; the craven, cowering look
of Lee, smitten as by a thunderbolt;
the hurried rally of the troops, the
eager onset. of the flying-artille! y,—
and not confess the power . of art to
reproduce in speaking forms the sub-
Ernest passages of history.
•If dramas are bad, are not battles?
If we would guard our children from
representations of false life in theaters,
shall we exhibit to them pictures
which shall cultivate in them a love,
or at least -a • tderance of the war
spirit, at widest variance with the
teaching of the Prince of Peace, and
more expressly than any other sin
condemned by Him. Whether the

We do not see how intelligent Tem
perance Democrats can longer. be
mistaken as to the real position of
parties'on the., Temperance question.
The following comments of the BostOn
Evening Telegraph on New-York-pol
itics, is a fair exposition of hunker
democracy in all the Status:
It is curious to see that the Administration
party, despairing of making any political cap:
ital out of the universally unpopulir Nebras
ka Bill, now place their sole reliance upon
the power of thirst. FKre Rum has taken the
place of Free Trade in their political platform,
and St. Tammany appears with a decidedly
red nose, a staggering step, and'a remarkably
rummy breath. The call for the first meeting
of the Administration party invited "Those
who are opposed-to the coercive, 3utjust Maine
Law prepared- by Myron Holley Clarke, the
whig, nominee for Governor of this State,
who object to have their houses searched and
their property contisc , t:ed in violation- of the
Constitution and of their personal' liberties,
who are opposed to the assaults of bigoted
and vindictive demagogues, who are in favor
of sustaining the princip•es of the veto toes
sage of Governor Seymour." And - the Day
Book, the new organ of the party, which with
a genuine. democratic contempt fur Demo
cracy, says-of Mr. Clark—" A pretty man he
'to make laws! A country retail .hardware
merchant, - a. vender of fish-hooks, log-chains,
ox-yokes, frying-pans, and gimlets, set up for
Governor!--a dealer in butts aiu4 screws,
hammers and hinges, snaking laWs for the
people of New-York !"—the Day Book lays
great streds upon the.anti-democratic attempt
at " laying down rules and regulations for our
diet; toiling us what we shall eat'or dr.nk;
when, where, and hoW much we shall take of
this and that beverage." It is a great pity
that Bronson will not get out of the way, and
let there be a " free fight" on the Liquor; as
wet' as the Slavery question—a second York
and Lancaster quarrel, with -an amendment,
autistituting the red nose for the red rose.
The Opinion of an Old Friend
We have just received a very plea
sant letter from one of the moist relia
ble friends of Temperance and. Lib
erty with whom it is our privilege to
associate Referring to the election
in this county, and the lesson it teaches,
our correspondent thus speaks of the
Journal and its position. We ask the
friends of Liberty and .True Demo
cracy in this
,county to take this opin
ion into consideration and see ;%vhether
it does not suggest . a duty that ought
to be discharged Without further delay.
The decreased circulation alluded to
was caused by adopting the advance-
pay system
If the Jciurnal had continued with the same
circulation it had eighteen months:ago, you
would have carried the county by a greater
majority than you lost; and it wouid bet well
for the friends of Freedom, and those inter
ested in the character of the county, to deter
mine whether it is better to leave the county
in the hands of the enemy, orat tt little effort
and trilling expenditure place the journal in
the Icinds of at least
. half the voters of the
county. Your paper wou!ii have had more
influence than before, with the saute circula
tion, because I think it is a.stronger paper
than it was.
Cam' We are pleased to see that a
new interest is awakened in this com
munity, in the Sabbath meetings.
We hope to see the interest increase,
until. every family shall be Wqll - rep
resented in • some religious meeting
every Sabbath. We believe this would
add to •the happiness of all.. Are
there any who think ottlerivise?

- SCHOOL TEACHERS FOR This WEST.
—Gov. Slade arrived in Albany on
Friday evening,accompanied by twen
ty-five young women on their way to
the• far west as teachers, under the
patronage of . the Educational Society.
They are apportioned to Mississippi,
Arkansas, Indiana, Illinois, &c. The
Society has sent out over 400 teachers
—some having gone 'to. Oregon, Cali
fornia, and Texas--Tribute. •
From the Cleveland Leader,
EXACTLY—MARK IT!
The Oligarchs are shrewd. " Wh •
),.
demands the Richmond Enquirer,
" should a German ask to be natural.
ized in so short a time ? The present
law is too liberal." Unquestionably.
For Catholic BnowNsoN has shown
that. the servile portion . of the folrOvr.
ens of the Papal Church, always
Slavery, have ceased •to immigrate,
and that the Germans. now coming
among us are hostile to Slavery. in any
and every form.. Therefore, the Oli
garchs say, "make the naturalization
laws more stringent."
. But look ye ! The Washington
Union speaks for the Administration—
for General PIERCE, and poor ARNOLD
DOUGLAS. It !ca., brave in defending
these "foreigners," one and all, before
the Presidential election; but since,
- awl especially erer sinee the 10th. of
Obtober, it spurns them. Hear it, as
it speaks on Tuesday, Oct. 17th, offer
ing its hand to the Know-Nothings
".Naturalized citizens ought to see, in the
immense increase of foreign emignitionwithi;
the last few / years, legitimate reasons for a
earnest investigation by native citizens of the
proboble influence of this increase- of foreign,
population upon our institutions. This itoa
fair and legitimate subject for discussion; and
if it shall result in, the conviction that our
naturalization laws are defective _and require
to be amended and reformed, the naturalized
citizens ought neither to be surprised ner to
Colllpl3lll,
Now put this and that together, - and
sum tip the logic of the case_ in sim
plest form. " These Liberal Germans
now here, and those emigrants now
coming into the country, are anti-
Slarecy as well as anti-Jesuitical ; they
hate servitude in every form ; they
hate a Papal Supremacy and an Oli
garch rule; therefbre we will corn
bine with Romanists, and deprive.
these Germans of citizenship. And
this rsthe plot or plan of the Slavires
South and the Set viles North: . •
Look a little further. The Wash
ing!ou Star is the Jackal' of the.
Washington Union. It scents out the
prey for the Oligarch. and tracks the
path by which he may scum it. It
cares not about consequences, and
looks net at means. - The-only question
it asks is, whether its Slavite masters
aro strengthened, and if they be, this
paid pimp is contented. Just hear
the - Washington Star, then, as it ap - -
plies practically the logic of the Wash
ington Union, and" the Oligarchs on
this subject. It says:
"There will,hozreeer, be no Southirn opposi
tion totter Administration. Erery man in =fhe
House front the South stilt staid np-to ITE'
MEASURE WHICH TILE
unity
IS
NTi)
KNOWN T FAvoa.. This. trf a great sec
tion of the Union, hitherto unknown in either
branch of Congress, will give them a moral
strength which, we think, will counterbalance
the plans of the majority."
Again put this and that together,.
and sum up the logic of the whole.
The Oligarchs are a UNIT. They base
their policy, - and- their action, upon a
sectionalism, resting-on Slarery Tinix
MUST HAVR•A DIVIDED NORTH TO MIT-
C'EU.D ;if they can get-it by flattering
the naturalized, and those foreigners
who mean to be . naturalized, let it be
poured out '• like a flood ;" if they can .
get it 'by uniting with the Know-
Nothings, and opposing the natural
ized, anti those- foreigners who seek
citizen Ship, let it - come " in' a very
torrent."
Nor need we wonder. For the
position of the 'Oligarchs is plain all
through. " The unity of a great sec•
tion" is made secure.; Slavery plants
that on a rock. As part and parcel of
that section—its organ and its strength,
though outside of its own dominion
State-wise, stands the- National - Ad
mini-tration. It will originate no
measure and a.opptirt . no measure hos
tile to Slavery; it will - originate atiy
measure, fi iendly to Slavery. There
fore, rejecting free homestead bills, it
will unite with or against the Natural
ized, as - such action r4ay strengthentor
extend the right of man to chattelize
man.
Let the North open its eyes wide,
for these Oligarchs will astonish it be
fore the battle for Freedom is won ;
they will use Know-Nothings and
Catholics both, without their realizing
the fact, and make them, though an
tagoni-tic, work for them, for they are
Jesuits in American Parties.
SURE ENOI7GH.
Capt. Carpentei of the Vth Ward Police,
in reporting to his superior the murder orig
inating in. a grogshop dispute which look
!dace 'in his Ward yesterday morning, thus
descants :
"Comment, 'perhapii, is useless, but facts
are stubborn tlunq4. I have frequently had
occasion to report to you the great evil arising
front these low groggeries being open at all
hours of the night, thereby nursing 'and in
citing the evil-disposed to crimes of all kinds,
and frequently, as in this case, ending in
murder. If this house had been closed at a
prosier time, no disturbance Would haVe oc
curred and Mitchell would not have been
shot. But he sowed the seeds of crime in
others, and he has reaped his reward by the
sacrifice of his life. As a peace officer, I
once more call the attention of this City an.
thorities and my fellow-citizens.to the-neces
sity of 'passing some stringent law to close all .
groggenes at a reasonable ?hour. _Until this is
done, the police are powerless in preventing
many crimes, particularly that of murder.
We cannot be (what we should be) a preven
tive, but only a detective police."
l'eS, Captain, you are perfectly right ! the
closing of all the grogshops at a reasonable
hour would " prevent many crimes, particu
larly that of murder." But there may be
some :dispute as tcr.what is "a reasonable
hour," So we will giver3ur. opinion on that
point. :We think . 7 o'clock this morning
would be a good time for closing and never
the best possible time for reopening them.
Can Capt. Carpenter better these hours?
Can he suggest any others -so likely to " pre
vent many crimes, particularly that of mur
'der ?" Let us hear.—N. I. Tribe/if. - -
