It matters but little whether the giil of your choice is rigged up in fip calico or twenty five cent gingham, it the hooks and eyes are' together, and the dress at least in part free from dirt, grease and holes. I know full well that those who have to la bor from morning till night cannot well avoid soiling a dross sometimes or prevent a stray ringlet from slipping out of the comb, but, lor all this, there is no necessity for being always in that plight ; and hence, if you find a girl in such a condition more than once a week you'd better cast a sheep's eye somewhere else, lest instead of finding an angel,you discover that you have got hold of one of the other sort. So much for this matter. On the subject of Behavior in Company, LEIGH RICHMOND gives the following ex cellent advice to his daughters : "Be cheerful and not gigglers. Be sc rioiH, but not dull. Be communicative, but not forward. Be kind, but notsurvile. Beware of silly thoughtless speeches ; al though you may forget them, others will not. Remember God's eye is in everv place, and his ear in every company.— Beware of levity and familiarity with young men ; a modest reserve, without affectation, is the only safe path. Court and encour age serious conversation with those who are truly serious and convertible; and do not go into valuable company without en deavoring to improve bv the intercourse permitted to you. Nothing is more unbe coming, when one part of a company is en gaged in profitable and interesting conver sation, than that another part should be trilling, giggling, and talking comparative nonsense to each other." With Leigh Richmond, 1 dislike these gigghr*. We have those among us who laucy they are the big bogs of creation, but who giggle and whisper at home, in the street, in stores, in cake and ice cream shops, and who can't even put a decent de meanor on their fly-Irap mouths >vhen at church ; yet if any one were to rata* a whisper -that these are not accomplished ladies ! patterns for poor young ladies and inrad girls who cannot sport their silks and ' sjtins daily in ihe streets!! tlie elite of society!!! at least a storm or whirl ; wild of" abuse wouid pour down upon his 'or her devoted head.

FRVSINGER —The designing por , tion oi the locofoco party ullect much as tonishment at tho appointment of the pre sent Surveyor of the Port of Philadelphia. : To us this seems to be as uncandid as it is unfair, as it is not unknown that the Surveyor himself is rn >re of a locofoco than a whig. He was the Aid de Camp of Cov. Porter, and voted for him. He publicly expressed his preference lor Jas. Buchanan for President. Besides, as we are informed by the best authority, five out of seven letters addressed to the Head of one of the Departments, in favor of his appointment, are from prominent and lead ing locofocos, and two of them from loco foco Directors of that well and ably con ducted institution, the Bank of Lewistown, of which Board of Directors the Surveyor is saiJ (for the short time in which ho officiated as a Director,) to have been an efficient member. If the public interest should suffer by this appointment, the locofocos are alto gether to blame for it, because they have asked for a share of the appointments. Tliey recommended Wm. B. Norris, and upon their recommendations he has been appointed. If, on the contrary, his ap poiotment be n good one, the locofocos are certainly entitled to the full credit of it, nor will the whig party of Pennsylvania bo disposed to dispute their claim.

We have, within the last three weeks, re- j ceived a large number of new subscribers, and the prospect is fair that our list will within the j present year extend far beyond what it has at 1 any time reached. Our friends in the country can do much for us : a single word, spoken in due season, has in many instances procured an additional name on our books, and if every one were but to exert himself a little, the benefit to j us would be equal to" the employment of an agent for six months.

SEASON. —Some of our farmers took ad \ vantage of the warm weather last week and ; secured a portion of their hay in excellent con j dition. On Saturday afternoon a heavy rain passed over the upper part of the county, and | on Sunday some seven or eight thunder storms | traversed our valleys, no doubt visiting every i portion of our territory. During one of them, | the electric fluid struck a tree in a garden in j town, which it shivered to pieces, but did no j other injury. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, though warm, were still pleasant j compared with the hot days of the previous ; week, and excellent weather for making hay, j most of which is no doubt housed by this time. The grain is rapidly ripening, and a number of fields will be ready for the husbandman at the , end of the ensuing week, should the weather j continue favorable. CHOl. ERA —Reports, we understand, are in I circulation in various parts of the country that \ cases of cholera have occurred in Lewistown, but our country friends may rely upon it that there is no foundation whatever for such re . port*. A somewhat sudden death occurred at j the end of last week, which has been tortured into cholera, but wo learn from good authority ( that the disease, of which the lady c pokcn of ; died, bore no resemblance whatever, nor par i took of the character of that scourge. Not a ' year elapses in which sudden deaths do not oc ' cur, and the eases are looked upon as no more ; than ordinary occurrences—why not so now ? We can assure our readers that no diseases are prevailing here at this time except such as are incident to the season. Should the Asiatic Cholera come here in reality, we shall not be ; slow m making the fact known. DROWNED. —An inquest was held by GEHROE DAWS, I'sq., Coroner, on Wednesday last, over the body of an Irishman, name unknown, who was found in the Canal, near the Three Locks, in Granville township, on the morning of that day. He bad on a linen roundabout and cassi nct pantaloons; red whisker*; hair slightly grey; was about o feet 7 or 8 inches high, and proba bly 4o years ol age. One cent was found in his pocket, but no papers or marks which would afford any clue to his identity. The jury ren dered a verdict of "accidental drowning." The Overseers of the Poor had his remains enclosed in a coflin, arid intered on the berm hank of the canal near the place where he was discovered. COTTON FAITORIF.S. The succcs which crowned the establishment of a Cotton Factory, at Lancaster lias induced others to embark in the same enterprise, and there arc now two inorc in the course of erection in that city. Ilarrisliurg, York, Reading, and other places, are also moving in the matter, and from present appearances every town of note in the State will in a few years have its own Cotton Factory, lake every other business, the manufacture of cotton goods is no doubt profitable when pro perly managed, hut we should much fear that the establishment of such a number, within a short period of time, would overstock the mar ket, ar.d cause serious loss to those who embark their means in tiiem, unless peculiarly favored in location. Lewistown, we believe to be one ot those places which, despite of panics and cri ses, would afford an ample market for a factory of the kind—the trade of an extensive back country centering here—with water power in ' abundance—and facilities for transportation equal to any town in the State ; and if some of j our own citizens will not soon embark in an un dertaking of this kind, w have no doubt there are keen-eyed capitalists in the eastern cities who will ere long discover our advantageous i position and eagerly secure it. AN UNFORTUNATE LAO.— The Carlisle pa- j pers mention the dentil, by drowning, of u lad, j named LIIAKI.km LA1.1.10, aged 14 years, SUII of respectable parents in that place. A few years since he lost his hearing almost entirely by scarlet fever. Six months ago he wis run over by the cars, and one of his legs had to be j noiputnted close to the thigh. His recovcty was almost miraculous, but, though maimed tor life, he participated as far an he could in j the active amusements of boyhood, until lie has finally ended his melancholy career by being drowned. l*oor boy ! The Clearfield Banner has changed its litl to " The County Dollar," and is now published at one dollar per annum. Though heretofore the locofoco oriran there, it now professes neutral ity in polities—-a state of betwixity and between ity our brother chips will find it difficult to maintain when the tug of war again comes on. We wish them success, however, in their un dertaking. The Hon. James Buchanan has placed $4OOO 1 in the hands of the City Council of Lancaster, the interest of which is annually to bo appropri ated to the purchase of wood and coal for the uso ol' poor and indigent females of that city during the w inter season. Pretty well done for an old bachelor ! Would there were some of the same stripe in Lewistown. A writer in tlie Bellefonte, Democrat is push ing JOHV 1). MEEK for a third nomination to the Legislature, and thinks the principle of chang ing representatives every two years is not a good one. Our "democracy" understand these things better—they are one term, two term, or three term, just as it suits, and don't care, a but ton about the principle—or if they do, they change it to suit the man. Bitsvnv AMP WATER are recommended in some of the papers as a cholera preventive. The New York Tribune tells us how to mix the in gredients, as thus:—To a bucket full of fresh spring water take three drops of brandy, mix the ingredients, then take out a tea-spoonful of the mixture, rinse out the bucket and fill it again with water, adding the tea-spoonful saved from the. fust bucket. The liquid is then ready for use! The Philadelphia " Bulletin," which has a : strong leaning towards the Anti-Administration Party, in speaking of the Removals making by President Taylor, makes use of the following emphatic language : " We do not think that President Tay lor has shown either w ant of talent or want of fairness in turning out men who, previous to his elec tion, abused him in the most libellous nod Jisgraee ful manner. On the contrary, we lament the want of decency and highminutdncts of these of . fire-holders who, while slandering a candidate before election, would stoop afterwards to retain I office under him—nay, WHINE FOR IT." and deallisare published gra ! tuitously in the Gazette, but to prevent mis takes, such items ought always to be furnished by the officiating clergyman, or some friend or relative of the parties. ! TIIK CHOLERA continues its ravages with great violence in the west, in St. Louis the deal!i9 are said to average 100 per day, and it prevails to an alarming extent on the Upper Mississippi—22passengers on board the steam er Uncle Toby having died with it brfv en that place and Oque Awka.

Busi ness of course, is little or nothing thought of the transactions that are made are to supply our immediate wants. We have had consid erable rains, but the atmosphere is still oppres sive. On the preceding day the Board of Health reported cholera interments, and 26 from other diseases. At Pittsburgh, on the 25th, there was one case.

The New \ork Courier eiv i the particulars of an interview with Mr .James 1,. Goring, who has ju-t returned from San Francisco, Califor nia, whither he went some months since on commercial business, from which we make the following interesting extracts -. The number ot fore ■'■•• err*, < hicflv from l'eru. Chili, Mexico, and tin Sandwu h Islands, who are pouring into California, is almost incredible. Seventy or eighty vessels were lying in the har bor, Completely deserted by officers as well as by men, left with no one to take care of them and rapidly falling to pieces at tl- wharves. The Peruvian government has sent a portion of its navy to San Francisco to bring away the Peruvian merchant vessels lying thc-re, and it is only by similar action on the part of our gov- i eminent that any portion of the American v took tivenlu-ftve pri soners and brought them into the ramp. Ac cording to the usual forms of proceeding, steps were immediately taken to give them an ex tem pore trial, which would, of course, have L-en followed by summary punishment. The In dian prisoners made an attempt to escape the first night after they were brought in. They , were detected, however, and twenty-four of them were killed on the spot. Judge Lynch is the only magistrate known throughout the mining region, and his de- j crees are pronounced with all proper judicial forms, and executed with relentless severity. There is no law, of course, for the district cx- ■ cr-pt such as is created by the emergency of the ' case. As to the extent and wealth of the gold re- j gions, Captain Loring says the truth cannot well be exaggerated : the only deceptions practised ' are in regard to the ease with which it is often represented that it may be gathered. He saw several old miners who had crossed the Rocky Mountains and settled in Oregon ; but on the : first report of the discoveries of gold they had j left that country and -gone to California. They } state, that, judging from the volcanic formation of the country and the appearances that every where meet the eye, they have no doubt what i ever that gold will be found to be equally abun dant on both '■iik'- of ihe Rocky Mountain chain, . tor a very great extent. New mines were dis covered within thirty miles of San Francisco, a few days before Mr. Loring left. He brought wiih him some beautiful specimens of the gold i found in the dry " diggings." Some of them | . weired five or six ounces, and had the appear- ' ance of having been incited in an open lire—be- j ing irregular ir, fortn, and slightly discolored by ; ashes or dust. These diggings are mainly be- j tween the North and South Forks, upon ele vated ridges in the mountains. The earth is ; very hard clay—requiring strong blows with a pick-axe to break it. The miners go into this ! section and strike at random. If there is gold i there, it will soon be evident by the appearance : of pieces, large or small, mixed in with the clay. On seeing ihese they immediately fill their bags with the dirt and carry it, either on mulea or on their shoulders, leu or twelve miles to the nearest streams, where it is washed and j the gold separated from Ihe dirt. Even with ! this tedious and hard process three ounces a day is a lair average for a strong and hearfy man. Frequently, however, from lack of proper tools, men dig with their hands—after a hole has once been made: and their fingers i soon become so sore that they are forced to : give up. * The great increase in tlm number of miners • was diminishing, ot course, the returns to in- ! Hividuals: and it was believed that ft om half i an ounce to one ounce would be a fair average during the season. About 10,000 persons have been digging during the past season, but more than twice that number are expected to I arrive before the next season opens. Just now j very little isdone in the mining district, owing to the stormy and unhealthy weather. Chiifs and lever were very prevalent, and the district would no! bo considered healthy for digging i until September. The miners live mostly in tents. The iiilie town of Stockton, near the ! mining region, is composed entirely ol tents.— Hie miners generally bury their ore until thev can take it into San Francisco and exchange it j for goods or slop it for home. All accounts agree that the Mexicans man ifest anything but a friendly feeling towards the Americans. It is stated that great numbers i of Mexicans, many ol them in organized com- j panics, and well armed, are leaving Mexico for California, and the writer, noticing the ill | feeling which manifestly prevails, expresses tin- opinion that war will be renewal within a i short time between the two countries. Mr. I Airing says that Col. weller, who was appointed by our Government, Commissioner to aid in running the boundary line according to the ia'e treaty, was to meet the Mexican Com missioner on a fixed day at Los Angelos at tiie day appointed ; and it was very generally an ticipated that the Mexicans would takeadvau- I tage of the failure, to disregard the treaty, and ! attempt to tegain possession ofllicir former ter ! ilory. rhit, of course, was mere conjecture, but it was thought to be rendered probab.'e, by what was known ot the state of feeling among the Mexicans. It has been suggested, mnreo- i ver, that foreign governments wouid not be unwilling to see liio war renewed, and tiiat they wouid aid the Mexicans m rcgciniiuv nos- i session of the Western Pacific Coast, since the Americans threaten to deprive the English al-, most entirely of the extensive and profitable commerce which they have hitherto enjoyed. OREGON. I lie New \ ork Commercial is in re ceipt of Oregon papers to llirSCd February, u contain the li.test news from that ter ritory, , 1 he Legislature of Oregon brought ils session to a close on the Ifith of February, having passed fifteen acts ami one resolu tion- Among the acts passed wero the fol lowing:— # l* In establish a mint ; to regulate the manuiaeiuro and sale of ardent spirit? a- | mong the Indians ; to prevent gaming ; to ' provide fill ihe pay of ihe commissioned officers employed in the recent \fr with Cayuses. 1 ho Legislature bail appointed the ne cessary h vtvutive, Judicial and other offi ce rs. Iho message of Governor Abernethv, tlHivurfcd nl the opening of the Legislative session, occupies a column and a half of the Spectator, b binary 8.

It was apprehended that nearly all t i lp male population would leave to the .Sp r ; n for California, unless gold in great abm" dance should he found in Oregon. V letter from Fort Kearney, of the California emigrants passing that place, sa\ a : Not a man hut what has a gun and a re volver or two, tinri one fellow 1 baa-, actu ally had no less than thrtc boicie kniees stuck in his belt. Many of the parties as originally lot med in the Stales, have had dissensions, and are broken up. and each fellow is striking out for himself. It r Jia! , ters but little whether a man is in an oig;- nized company or by himself, for it is mi ! possible to get cut of sight of wagons. — Such an emigration as is now passing over the plains, has not had its parallel in any age. Composed, as it mostly is, of the • best material of our land, the country that receives it must necessarily assumes com. mamling position. The last arrival from the frontiers is a solitary foot traveller, who says lie lias come all the way Irorn Maine, without the assistance of either railroad, stage, steam boat, or telegraphic wires, fie is accom panied bv a savage looking bull-dog ; has a long rifle over his shoulder, on the end of which he C 3r r ies his baggage, consisting of a small bundle, about the size of your hat. He has no provisions, but gels along pretty well by sponging on his fellow travellers. He says he wants but a hundred meals to carry him through, and he rather guesses ; he'll find Christians enough on the road to i supply him with that number. I think that I the ratio between men and wagons, is three and a half to one. The Statr Treasurer ot Pennsylvania has made an arrangement with tour of the Phila ■ delphia Banks whereby the Slate interest due in August next will be paid in par tends.
