GP' Our friend, Charles Steele,, of
Sharon, in this county, has placed , on
our table an ear of corn raised in-Ship
pen, Mliean Co., that reminds us of
our boyhood farming in Chester coun
ty. This Shippen ear of corn has 22
rows and 45 grains to the-rum, making
990 grains of corn on the- ear, which
is 462 grains more than that sent us
by Crayton Lewis. Which will yield
most to the acre is a. matter of doubt.

could be endorsed even in Chicago,
published the following:

At 7 o'clock on the evening or October
the 1 eth, 1r1.54, we !dieted JAMES POLLOCK to
be the Governor elect of Pennsylvania;' at
nine we knew it; at ten we nominated him
as the People's candidate for the Presidency ,

nailed his name to the mast-head of :he Tek

and . .he breadth of the hind by steam, in order
to give the magnanimous people .and "our
editorial brethren an opportunity to pass
their judgement upon our se ection. And
we venture to say that never , within the rec
ollection of the "oldest inhabitant," has 'an
editorial suggestion been received with such
unanimity. Many of the . public jour als, in
and out of Pennsylvania, have seconded the
suggestion, and some of them with enthusi
asm. Quite a number have adopted Gov.
Pollock as their candidate; and so far as we .
have observed, but one that supported him
in the recent contest, has attempted to dis
countenance the project, and that one, for
want of a better argument, falsely accu.-ed us

Union entitle her to this distinction. And
what of the man we present ? None haVe
dared to question his integrity or Capacity,
and we venture the asseriion that they will
not be questioned in the future. Four times
has he been a candidate. where he had large
majorities to overcome; and in every instance
has emerged from the smoke and dust of the
battle, with "brows bound with victorious
wrea.hs." So fur as we• knew, he is the
first Governor that has been elected by Tux

ABE THE XFIOW-NOTHINGS PIIpSCIIITITTE I
As this charge is frequently . Made
against a party that seems tube sweep
ing all before it, we think our readers
would like to know whether the charge
is well founded or not. We find a
communication in the N. Y. Tides of.
Nov. 14, evidently from "one of 'em,"
which presents their view of the mat
ter, and 'gives some reasons for their
defeat on Governor in New-York:
There was on the part of some, too,
a 'fanaticism in opposing the Know-
Nothings, and in the manner of it.
Theirs may be a too narrow and inex
pedient policy.--especially in their
apparently inaisoiminate hostility to
all foreigners. No better citizens can
be introduced into the country than
the'Scotch-Irish, of the North of Ire
land, the Scotch, the Welch, the Pro
testant immigrants. from Germany,
(who are far from being all for Lager
Bier and Infidelity,) &c. But the
Know Nothing, or ultra American
party, if you please, are not banded
against ally rights of foreigners, or
adopted citizens. They arc not pro
scriptire, in any sense firrbidden: by
the Constitution,—even if they are
sworn in their determination 'to vote
against foreigners, and especially Ro
monists. As for the reason of their
hostilit3jet the impudence of the mass
of the 'lrish and other foreign Papists
' or infidels, and rummies, he recollected;

! meddling; and their readiness to be

their vote, and paid for it with un

such hostility, let it be further recol
lected, that while we interfere not

"HOSPITALITY."
HaVing seen in a recent number of
the Journal an article on Hospitality,
I vas led to reflect on the aspect of
the case-and feel convinced that in
this county at least there is no lack of
that virtue. Do we not receive the
stranger that comes to our gates with
open arms ? Do we not hasten to
give him the best seat, sending our
own children to stand in the corner,
if they are a little lame or disabled,
in order to make room for him And
when we have filled the lap of one
with the best we have, • poor though it
be, until, like the child with the ap
ples, Le finds he has, not hands enough,
he quietly' makes over the surplus to
his friend, another stranger ; as though
he.felt that our hospitality asked noth
ing but to be passed along.
We admire, we employ, we pay
court to all these strangers, for do
worthiness of theirs above our own
people, but simply out of abundant
hospitality. And even when our own
old friends come, we stand modestly
hack, and let these new corners do
the honors to them, as though it be
longed to them. Let us not be ac-
cured, either, of exercising this virtue
only toward the rich'and fashionable.
Do we not-thus receive those who tell:
very piteous stories of their necessi
ties'? and - is it for us to doubt or to
question? Of course these recipients
of the good place will exercise the
same feelings towards those who cso
after them, that we show to them, and
learn to retire into corners and by=
places after they get to feeling at
home a little, just as we do. -

".The uselessness and extravagance
of modern women, multiply Lche
lors."
So say several of our 'papers. Ed
itor after editor copies the remark,,
thus expres,ing their assent to it.—
Probably it is true; I should be glad
to
. think so. It is another proof of
evil being overruled for good. Use
lessness and extravagance are not
very good of themselves, but if they
"multiply bachelors" they will prob
ably prevent some of the unhappiness
that often results from hasty, ill
assorted marriages. I have a respect
for bachelors, because they have not
proved themselves intolerable to live
with because they do nut leave their
wives at home when they go out for
pleasure, recreation or mental im
provement; becauie they do not spend
dollars on subscriptions, or charities,
or amusements, or satin vests—and
snappishly refuse a few pennies fo:F
urgent household necessities.
Not long since, I counted in a small
village .congregation. seven women
who had parted from their husbands.
These were all estimable, virtuous
women, respected and respectable-
Well would it have been perhaps, if
these had been useless and extrava
gant—there would have been in our
little- community seven more bache
lors—and seven single women, less
tried and sorrowing than they now
are.• Ah, if uselessness and extrava
gance are working in this way—pray,
dear girls! be as useless and extrava%
gant as you can. G.

expose of the principles of the new

is possible for an .outsider to do.
While we cannot approve all that is
attributed to this young giant, Vie find
much to encourage us in his =Me

seems to speak by the card, in com

thus alludes, to -the principles of the
Ametican party :
The old party cries now resound to
heedless ears, and factions that have
distracted the country will be swept
out of existence; the -great basis of
human rights will be- more firmly
planted, by being more clearly under

and enjoy the protection of our laws,
to worship God according to con
