PUBLICATION OF’TJIK LAJVS.
! Wo itavo on many occasions, says ilio
jCurlisle Volunteer, urged tho propriety of
publishing all public laws in ono of our
'newspapers in the different counties—the
I expense to bo paid from tbe Slate Treasury
'or by the different .counties, ns may ; bo
considered Vyd noW ryvort to it for
tho purpose ;of 'attracting thd attention of
the press and thoj people in general, previ
ous to the meeting of the Legislature. '
I hat the publication of all public laws
an tho difibrent counties in the State is
\ncccssuri/ t no man of the least discernment
| will attempt to controvert. In most oftho
| Wostbrndiiatds this plan of malting tho peo
ple acquainted with the laws by which
I they are governed, has been ndopted, and
has proved most beneficial in its results.
Lvery man his own lawyer, should bo tho
ambition of. us all. Uut how are wo to
know anything of otir laws, when wo are
not permitted to read Acts of our Legisla
ture f At every session of the Legislature
hundreds of Acts, (many of them general
in their character,) uro passed ; these Jaws
are published in pamphlet form, for 'tire
benefit of our legal friends
penplo never seo them, they know ribt
what they contain, und ofien, very often,
violate a luw of tho State, and aro only
made aware of tho Tact when summoned
in Court to answor tor tho disdomcanor.
How often huve wo heard lawyers at the
bar pleading for a client, and attempting
to create u sympathy J'or him or» the
j ground that tho client had been ignorant
of the law ho had violated ! The publica
tion of laws we contend, would lesson
crimo as well as court expenses. 'Give
the jicojile light,' is a significant and sub
lime sentiment, lire ud.vico contained in
these four words is a volume in itself, and
should be heeded by our law-makcrs and
all in authority. Yes, ‘give the people
light, by plucing before them all informa
tion possible; and moro especially <-ive
them light cn the subject ol tho luws°by
which tliov arc governed. Of n || other
information a knowledge of our general
luws is what the masses require. °
Wo believe a bill was introduced into
: last Legislature, making provision for
jtlie publication of tiio general laws in the
i counties. LTut, by tho cunning of luwyer
I members it was stavc-d off, or postponed
I indefinitely. Gentlemen of the lemil pro
|fi ssion aro of course opposed to having
: the laws published, becauso they know
very well that it would interfere with their
business. Tli.o moro ignorant the people
lean be kept on the subject of the laws
j they aie required to observe, tho richer
jwill be the liarvesl for tho la,wyorB. (t is
not to bo wondered at therefore, that lo.w.
;yers are opposed to tho publication of the
laws—they would consider it au infringe
ment upon former privileges—an intcrle
renco with their bread and butter. Uut,
we appeal to the farmer, the mechanic,the
business man, if this is not n question in
which they uro particularly interested ?
As at present published, wo venture to say
there is not ono in five hundred of our cit
izens- who know any thing whatever, of
the nature of our public laws. And yet
they are bound, by lines and penalties, to !
observe those law-, tho provisions of which j
have no way of ascertaining. This is
wrong—outrageously wrong,and demands
a remedy. Wo say, then, let us follow
the example of tho Westorn and New En-j
gland Suites, and havo oar general laws)
published in tha newspapers Jf the dulbr
ent counties. The expense would bu but
a Irdlc'to each count)'. The advantages!
to every community cannot bo estimated
Wo tiopo our brethren of tho press will
look at this subject and enlighten the peo
ple in regard to it. If the coming Logis
luture does noKcontuin to many lawyers,
we may hope lo see this question receive
the consideration its merit deserves.
If it’lD GROWTH ol' lOWA
lowa is unquestionably destined to be
come a great State. She is already great
in territorial extent and in a rich produc
tive sriit ; but the time is not far distant
when she will be great in population, in
agricultural productions, in the mechanic
aits, in trade, in science and literature,
and great in what is more valuable tiiun
all these—-the honor and valororiicr sons,
their industry and enterprise. Time is on
tho wing, young lowa is growing, and be
fore the lapse of many years she will bo
hailed os one ot tho richest—-rich in all
that constitutes a great commonwealth—
of the States composing tho American
Union.
I'rnm ono ol our exchanges we clip the
following:
“I'i'w persons are awareof the immense
lido of emigration that is setting urrd mb
ving to the West. lowa, csjpjnlly, is fil
: U P with a rapidity almost unparalleled.
A Mr. Watts, of lowa city, who has re
turned to his homo from a trip to the
East, represents Hie emigration liountl for
lowa as astonishing, and unprecedented.
For miles and miles, day after day, the
proiribs of Illinois are linod With cattle
and wagons, pushing on to that rapidly,
growing State. At ono point beyond Pe
oria, Mr. Watts remained overnight, where
ho was informed that during a single month
seventeen hundred andforty-three wagons
had passed, and all for loioa. Allowing
five persons to a wagon, which fo n fair
average, we have 8,715 souls to' add to
tho population of that Btafo. : This bein"
tjut tho emigration of one month, and upon
ono routo only out ofWiinny, it would not

firfat Flouring Mills,
Both in England arid the United Slutes,
great exertions have been made in tho last
fifteen years, to improve flouring mills, and
mako them produco the largest amount ofi
flour in a given time, ’ |
.It seems 'that, « "Belebt'ated “Conica|” j
mill-^vas. exhibited at; tho IWorld’s Fair at j
London, which wds afterwards examined)
by.n committee of- Parlimcnt and a num-l
her of scientific gentlemenf, and pro-!
nounced to bo a wonder of its kind. Two
of these conical mills were put up in an
establishment, alongside of two old fashion
ed flat Mills, arid tho following is given in
an English paper ns the result of the trails:
There were three trials as regarded the
old systom nnd tho new. The first ex
periment on tho old mill gavo a discharge
of 10 potlhds of flour in five minutes,
which were equal lo ; 19$pounds per hour;
while upon tho patent mill ,'there was a
discharge of 384 pounds in fivo minutes,
or 462 pounds per hour. The difference,
however, on that experiment was against
tho old system 270 pound,i per hour. The
second experiment tried was Oven more
fnvorablo ns regarded the new system.
Two conictil mills worked against two
on the flat principle for one hour, asecr
lujnfng exactly nnd with tho following re
sults : |
Conical mill No, 1 produced 83 bushels,
“ “ No. 2 “73 “
Flat mill No. 1 “3 “
“ “ No. 2 “3 “
This was regarded ns a wonderful ac
hievement, nnd tho scientific committee
declared to their report that these conical
jnills oiust very soon supersede the old
flat mills.
Now we aro glud tohavo it in our pow
er to say that our scientific millers in
Pennsylvania have been improving the
old Hut burrs, so ns to mako them com
pletely eclipse nnd throw in the shade these
celebrated English conical mills.
Messrs. Wilson & McCullough have
recently comploted a new steam mill in
lour borough. They run 44 feet flat
French burrs, two hundred revolutions a
minute, that turn out flour faster than we
over saw it run from a mill spout. These
gentlemen calculate to grind regularly
from six to seven barrels of* extra flour
per hour on cuch run of stones, and they
may be able to do more. As high as
thirty bushels of wheat have been ground

A RETORT
During the war of 1812, it was the mis
fortune of many American officers 'to bo
prisoners in Canada, and not always to
meet with the best of treatment. True
they were physically well attended to and
l generally messed with their captors; but
they wero subjected to gibes and morti
fying remarks, which not unfrequently
called forth a Itoiand for an Oliver. On
ono ol these occasions, (it was just after
the Might of the President from Waslring
j lon, and before the news of his safety had
j reached Quebec) an English officer gave
j the insulting toast, under the circutn
| stance : “Air- Madison, dead or nlire.”
| Words cannot express the indignation of
I tho American officers, nor their surprise
! when they saw a prisoner rise from his
(chair, returning thanks for this rccollec
| lion of his country’s chief magistrate, nnd
| in the blandest voice call on all to fill, ns
j lie was about to make a return. There
j was a peculiar something visible, however,l
winch led Ins companions to think they
j might follow his example,- which thoy did,!
jin a calm and unmoved voice, he gave!
| tho toast, “HIS HOYAL 11 ton.MISS, THE'
( Pkixck of Wales, dkcnk on soiieu.”—i
, Had a shell exploded on tho table, tho I
| amazement could not have been greater,
j and the persons who bad given tho first 1
I toast said, *‘thut sir, is an insult,” “No,”
said tho American “it is a reply to one, 1
.that is all.” He continued, “if it bean 1
insult, resent it!” The English aro in'
the main n chivalrous race, and the com
menccr of the wordy dirputo was indue-'
eil to explain, and the party dispersed.

Shocking Accident, —lt again becom
es our painful iduity to record another
shocking accident which resulted in tho
death of Mr. John Bowehs, of litis bor
ough. It appears that on Saturduy last
several persons left town for the purpose
of testing tho speed of a couple of horses.
Tho test ground was betwoen the tesi-'
denco of War, Baiiid, jr„ Esq., and Val
entines’& Thomas’ old Furnace, on tliei
•turnpike leading from this- place to Lew-!
istown. After having reached tho allotted'
point, the horses were arranged for the]
itest with, their riders seated upon them,I
and started upon tho course amid the an-1
jxiety of thoso who were witnesses of tho I
affair. After proceeding ,somo distance,'
ilia liorso. upon which tlio deceased sat, *
sprang offtho conrsc, and continued to run
glong side of tho road until ho reached the,
wood, pile in front of Mr. H. H. Poorman’s
residence, when tho coursor fell over n
gainst a couple of logs—throwing tlio rid
pr upon tho, ground with tremendous force
,—his head and face striking against tho
end Of ono of tho, sticks of wood—bruising
nnd'.cutting it in,a most horrible manner!
