In Kentucky, politics are so much mixed up i With Emancipation and Slavery, that it is diffi- 1 cult to come at the facts. la Indiana the prospects are that the whigs ' will gain a member or two in Congress. In North Carolina the Congressional dclega- j lion will stand a; before, unless Stanley has i been defeated—three counties remain to he heard from. ESCAPE. —A man named RIDDLE, who was in dicted for an assault with intent to kill, deiib crat ly walked from the Court House on Wed nesday la-t while the jury was rendering it; ■verdict of " guilty" against him, and succeeded in making his escape. He had been liberated under bail, on whom we presume w ill rest the re?j nubility of apprehending him. Angus! Interest. The semi-atinuil interest on the public debt ci Pennsylvania, due on th; lit inst., was promptly paid in par funis in Philadelphia, by the .State Treasurer. This is the first iitoe since the resumption of the ; ay men t of the in terest on the b ate debt, that it .as Leon paid i:i par funds, and tells well for the honor of the Commonwealth.

For some li'.ne past our tov n lies been dis graced by a scries of drunken brawls, perhaps without 11 parallel in its history, which have at last ended in the brutal beating todeathof a man named JOHN WRIGHT. Peace loving cit izens have long looked fur such a result, from the leniency with which those most interested suffered a set of vagabonds to do as they p'eae . Ed without resorting to the law for redress. • As brawl and riot progressed, hopes were still entertained iliat the sworn officers ot justice would awake to their duty, but all in vain, and it was reserved for the crowning act of these j scandalous proceedings to be enacted before the ! eves of indges and grand jurcrs, attorneys, magistrates, and constables, without so much as an effort to arrest the party committing it ! ; Even when the unfortunate man so cruelly beaten was lying in the throes of death, Win. Eisenbise was actually engaged in another fight, and though die crowd around was again i and again solicited by his own father to lake I him to jail, it was not done. 1 The question may well be asked, by those who love peace and order, to what stute of tilings are we hastening, when the laws are thus violated with impunity and our streets made a menagerie of rowdies from the boy of ten years to the in 1 grown man! Must we in I truth, like a band of savages, go armed with pistol and dagger when walking our streets, from a fear that some drunken rufiian will as sail either life or property, or shall we live as a j civilized community, protected by laws enforced | against the strong as well as the weak! It is i time, full time, that the-e questions sli uld be : decided, and it is also time to know whether there are not officers whose duty it is to queii disturbances, or if they know of violations of the peace at public houses, to report them to the higher authorities. If there are nonesuch, tiiere certainly should be, and the sooner provi sion is made for their appointment the better. An occasional brawl will take place in almost any community, and may be overlooked, but for months past there has been more rioting and j fighting in Eevvistown than there ought to be in i any town of its size. J THE AFFP.IT. —The cireum?t.ince; attending the death of J its' WEIGHT, as near as we can gather them, are as follows: On Tuesday af ternoon some altercation took place between William Eisenbise and John \V right, which at the time resulted in nothing serious. F.isen bise (who was considerably intoxicated) how ever followed up Wright, although the latter is said to have repeatedly tcld the former that lie was no match for hnu in fighting, until they • reached the alley near Freeburn's smith-shop. Eisenbise there caucrht Wright by the arm and struck at him. but did not hit him—the blow , having made, as we are informed, an indenta tion in a board fence which many supp .;e could not have been made by the knuckles of Eisen- ( bise alor.e, although one of the strongest men ! in the county. Eisenbise then threw Wright over his head, jumped on him, and struck t.im 1 three or four blows on the head, when he was taken off. it was at once perceived that Wright was dangerously injured, and he was imrnedi- I ately conveyed to Major Eisenbise's hotel, and : medical assistance called in. His wounds w ere | dressed, and although for a short time he ex hibited favorable symptoms, he expired on Wednesday morning. A post mortem examination was made by Drs. Ard, Worrall, T. \V T. Howard \ anvui zah, and others, which proved that the brain was injured by a fracture of the skull. Wright, we have been told, was not consid ered a very quarrelsome man, and during the lifetime of his wife, who died a year or two since, is said to have conducted himself with much propriety. He leavr 5 four children —the eldest a daughtei about 16 years oM —one of whom is now at Hollidjyshurg, and the others at Philadelphia, j Shortly after this brutal assault v. as made, a man named John Long, while looking at the bruised and battered head of Wright, observed that hi mould like to hi the man irho could Ir.y him out in that van, or something to that effect, when William Eisenbise at once declared that he could do it, and the result was another fight. Long however proved a rough customer, and gave his opponent a pair of black eyes, togethi r ; with sundry marks about his face that weeks will not obliterate. Eisenbise remained about town until within a few minutes of the death of Wright, without any attempt being made to ar re-t him, when he crossed the Lcwistown and Tuscarora Bridge and made for the mountains. , He was seen by several persons at Bixlcr's Gap j during that day, and is represented as being al most unable to see ar.d to be otherwise so much bruised as to be unfit for travelling. His friends, it is supposed, have siace then provided him with a retreat in the hills, or aided his escape, nothing further having been heard of Lis where abouts up to the time of our going to pre-s. A reward of f>oo 13 offered for his arrest and con finement in any jail in this commonwealth. i "A TUB PHESIDSM'S TOUR. —Gen. Taylor, as we learn, was to have left Washington on Thursday, the ifih inst, and proceed byway of Beltirnore to Vork, in tins Etatc. Thence he was to go to Lancaster, and afterwards to Harrieburg, where he is expected to arrive tu day. From liarrisburg, in Company with Gov. Jaim.-.ton, he will pa.-e over the midland and western counties, pausing at various places of interest, and especially 13 ulLrd Furings, and ' reach Pittsburgh on tie F-th. Alter ,p .Tiding a <iay or two m our great Western emporium, he will visit some of the Northern counties ot Pennsylvania, and thence cross into New i'ur.; ami advance for lite E*- f On his return he will etop in Philadelphia long tnough to ena ble the citizens to gratify the ur.iversi! desire of seeing ami conversing with the hero of I! :• ena Visa.

The Whigs of Aliffiin assembled at the Town ilail < n Tuesday evening, ar.d were or ganized by the appointment of the following officers : President. CO I. \VM. REED. Vice Presidents. Col WILLIAM CUMMINS,DANIEL BROUGHT, SAMUEL MORRISON, \VM. T. BELL, E.-q, Secretaries. Judge CrisicfU. James A. Fearce, llenry McFadden. On motion cf George Frysinger, a commit tee of five was appointed to report resolution? for the consideration of the meeting, 'i he chair named George Frysinger, Adam Sigler. E. E. Locke. J- F. Cut'.reil, Atlatn Ilolliday, who accordingly retired, and subsequently re ported the following, which were unanimously adopted : Resolved. That the Administration cf Gen. Taylor, thus far, meets with our cordial ap probation— is alike conclusive that while actu ated by pure and just motives, he is not un mindful of that great party by whose votes lie was elevated to power, and that, despite the hyena bowlings of glutted office-holders and their sycophant-, he hat- the more! courage to remove those who, with the cry of rotation on ilu ir lips, cling to every petty emolument with the tenacity that "drowning men hold en to STJWS." lies Ived, That if in exercising the appoint ing power, some have been elevated who were perhaps not deserving of such distinction, we would rather attribute their appointment to recommendations—too oiten got for UM ash ing by those whose principles are altogether centered in self —than to a desire, on the part of the President, to run counter to the popular will. Resolved, That WILLIAM F. JOHNSTON has fch wn himself a true and tried friend of Penn sylvania interests, whom neither factious c.iques nor unprincipled opponents cou'd swerve from the path of duty: worthy of the confidence reposed in him by the people of a great State, .10 intelligent or unprejudiced man can withhold from him the praise of "well done, thou good and faithful servant." Resolved , That in Gideon J. Ball, the whig State Treasurer, the locofocos have caught a • tartar' who has already taught them that the People's Money (wrung from them by onerous taxation) is not to be squandered with impuni ty, or used for speculating purposes by those who have grown w fat on State pap as to be come as saucy as fat, without his letting the taxpayers and laborers know where tiie.r mo ney goes to. Resolved , That if the laborer is worthy of his lure, as was asserted by a locofoco canal coin mi- oner at a recent celebration, the non labtrrer is not —and theref *e Morris Ixmg streth is requested to refund into the Stale Treasury $973 of the £IOOO he drew, as $23, in our opinion, w uld be full pay for ail the services he rendered the State last year. Resolved, That the *higa of Mifflin adheie to their timc-h itr red name and principles with a firm reliance that they constitute the true democratic 'platform on which our country is progressing in its careci of usefulness, integ rity and virtue. With one of cur great lend ers " we would rather EE RIGHT than be Pre sident;" and hence, while we welcome to our ranks the oppressed of all nations, we stoop not to entrap them by professing what we do cot practice —or, in other words, call ourselves democrats and advocate high-toned federal principles. Resolved, That Thomas 11. Benton having lately discovered that whig* ore rnrji uho pay taxes and Jig ht for their country, it is tube hoped that other distinguished locofocos will soon be similarly enlightened. During the evening, excellent speeches were delivered by JAMES T. HALE, E-q, of Beiiefonte, Gen. Wa. 11. IRWIN, and A. K. CORNYN, Esq., of Huntingdon, and some point ed remarks made by Mr. C. UACOHLIKO, of Newton Hamilton. W.M. P. ELLIOTT, Esq. was then appointed Representative Delegate to the Whig State C nven* 1 n, and Ciiptu n THOMAS WATS IN, Senatorial, (with full power to act as such in case neither Union nor Juniata has named a Senatorial Delegate.) LOCOFOCO COl MY CONVENTION. This August body assembled at the Town Ha i on Monday hst, and after an arduousses- nominated the following ticket: For Assea.b'y —ALEXANDER GIBBONY, of Union tow nship. Commissioner —GAßßlEL DENMIRE, of Oli ver township. * Treasurer — ROUT. H. MOCLINTICK, of LOW* istown. Auditor —CYRUS DOR MAN, of Decatur town ship. JOSEPH ALEXANDER, Esq, of Lewistown, v. is elected Representative Delegate to the next Democratic Siate Convention. John Puree!!, of Wayne, John Stine, Jr., of Oliver, and James Hail, of Brown, were elected Conferees to elect, with Juniata and Union c unties, a Senatorial Delegate to the next Stale Convention. There was not much difficulty experienced in the nominations fur Commissioner, Trea surer, and Auditor, rur friend .McClintick hav ing had the promise so long that the party could not well get over it, and Dunmire per haps the same, while Auditor is "small pota toes" at the best, the office not being worth more than isl ur $3 per annum; but for Le gi-laturo there was a war of words as well as .1 hatful of tailorings. Dr. Mitchell received 17 votes on the first ballot, lacking but two of a nomination—the remainder having been cast for T. F. McCoy, Porcel. Gibbony, &c.—but nr. the convention never intended to nominate him, ho was gradually letdown into his politi cal grave with the following salvo : Resolved, That the course of 11. J. Walters, fvq , and Dr. G. V. Mitcheii, our delegates to the late convention at Pittsburgh, on the 4th of July, whereat John A. GambU', of Lycom ing county, was put in nomination ! r (.'ana! Commissioner, meets with our cordial ap proval. The friends of Captain McCoy hung on to their candidate with all the zer.l and fervor that friends could, but neither his services in tho Mexi -an war nor his services to the demo cracy of Mifflin at home, could induce a major ity to vote fur him.

The Board of Canal Commissioners was in session at Congress Hall, Philadelphia, in the beginning of this week, the principal business before it being the examination of the bids for the construction of the road to avoid the In clined Piane. The number of applicants for contracts on the seven sections is one hundred and twenty-six, and the bidders are said to be among the best and most responsible contrac tors in the .State. The prices asked are gen erally quite low, end there is scarcely a doubt that tiie Slate appropriation will bo sufficient. FATHER MATHEW continues his temperance labors in Boston. In two days, last week, he administered the pledge to between fur and five thousand persons. One good effect lias been to shut up a large number of drinking houses *on Sunday. Many persons come from the country on purpose to take the pledge at his hands. Since he has been in Boston, he is said to have administered the pledge to persons. The Post says that while administering the pledge to a groupe of his countrymen, among whom were two or three 'hard-looking sub jects,' the worthy father gave them the fol lowing good advice: — 'Keep clear,' said be,'of intoxicating drink and you will soon be in better plight. Save your money, and go West, w here land is cheap and the hand of man is wanted. While you are in the habit of intemperance, you often drink up the value of an acre ot land in a night So keep sober, lay up your money, and leave tins part of the country, where tiie iabor-mar ket is overstocked.' We know some in this region uho would do well by following tins advice, instead of spend ing their hard earned money in buying whis key. DEATH CP A PIONEER.—The Cincinnati Chronicle announces the death, in Gaiiatin, Ky., of Captain Jacob White, one of the very earliest settlers of the Miami Valley, in the O-'U year of his age. While a boy he left N' w Jersey, with his father's family, for the Redstone settlement, on the western frontier of Pennsylvania, and was at that place when the Declaration of Independence was adopted and published. He nnngled fiecly in the frontier conflicts of the revolutionary war. and the Chronicle says of his subsequent career: He was one of the smail party that planted themscives at the mouth of tiie Little Miami, and commenced the village of Columbia, in the la 1 i ol 17—\ which was the first settlement made within the limits of Judge Sy mines' pur chase. Being a bold, fearless adventurer, lie left the settlement, erected a block-house on his land, seven or eight miles in the wilder ness, to which he removed his family and be gan an improvement, soon after the commence ment of the Indian war which was terminated by the treaty of Greenville, in 1793. During the war, his block-house was attacked bv a strong party of Indians, who were repulsed, and compelled to retreat. In the morning the body uf one of the Indians was found dead on the ground, so near to the block-house, that his companions were unwilling to incur the risk of an attempt to carry him off. Friithlfnl Eailroiiu Accident. A frightful accident occurred on Thursday morning of last week, on the New Jersey rail road, near Princeton, to the train which left Philadelphia f r New York at 0 o'clock. S me wicked wretch, it appears, had displaced the sw tch at a turn out, and the train running oil the track; the locomotive, tender, and bag gage crates were thrown into tiie canal. The following is a 1 st ot the kiileu and wounded, as published in the Philadelphia papers cf Fri day morning: KJled. —Win. Conover and a German un known. Wounded. —James Hollingsworth and his wife Saruh Ann, Matthias North, Eliza Bryan, Chas. Naslbury, Win. Miikburne, Martin Mer rill or Merrett, Mrs. Mary Lindsay, Eiiza Hand, Barbara House and child, Mary Ann Garrison, of Philadelphia; Thomas Giassup, Joseph or Joshua Giassup, of f" rank ford, Pa.; Simon Griswold, of New York; Patrick Mc- Porril, of Williamsburg, L. I.; W. li. Waters, of Pottsvilie, Pa. From the Colonization Herald. REV. WILLIAM M. HALL. It is with much concern that we are obliged to announce the resignation ot Mr. llai! as Agent of the Pennsylvania Colonization Soci ety. His business engagements have been so much interrupted by infirm health as to pre vent his sustaining any longer those relations with the Society, from which both he anil j anticipated the most satisfactory results. We subjoin the resolutions passed "by the Board of Managers on the occasion of his r :signalion. R/ solved, That ns the Rev. Mr. Hall has rendered his resignation as Agent of tiie Board, his resignation be accepted, but at the same time the Board deeply regret that the state of .Mr. Hail's health and the immediately urgent neci.-sity of the Society, compel us to part with a gentleman in whose zeal, fidelity, and intel ligence. they have the highest confidence. Resolved, That the Board collectively and individually, tender to Mr. Hall their senti ments of cordial esteem, and their most hearty w.thcs for his health and happiness. Mr. Hail, with the consent of the Board, had intended tn act for awhile on behalf of the So ciety in some of the counties in the central part ot the state; but we grieve In sav, that an affection of his eyes arrests him even in this more limited circle of action. The Cholera is still slightly decreasing in all the principal cities, but two deaths having been reported in Philadelphia on Wednesday la-t. — In some of the western towns its ravages are severe, instances occurring where w hole fami lies have been carried oft".

M - Favre, with a great diahf abiltiv, is aLo a lawyer of considerable . \. perietice, and is not likely to fall tfl ( 0 \j Ledru Ruliin's blunder of calling on hi* partisans to take up arms. The seats recently occupied bv M,.. sietirs Ledru Rollin, B ic, Felix Pvjt.a: Mathieu (de la Borne.) are now occupied by the declared adversaries of SocialUm.— Messieurs Djpont (de Busac)ainl I'locon, who had been set up by the Socialists in several departments, were all unlucky they themselves, as well as their colleagues, .Messieurs Goudcliaux and Gurnard. were in Paris. M. de Lamartiue has been elect ed lor two places, but he is not considered as a Red Republican. lie will probably ultimately join the Cavaignac party, which may be c.ill-d the real Republican party, and which therefore, opposes both the re actionnaires and the Red Republicans.— The gre.Mest number of the new members are of the old Conservative, or, as it WHS called, the dermatic party.

All the wounded have been removed from that palace. The French are doing all ther can, distributing money, due., to get up a cry in his favor, but in va:n. The Roman troops who had agreed in the first instance to do duty conjointly with the French are all leaving, and the force remaining now amounts to less than 1,000 ir.en. Of j these many were anxious to leave, but General Oudinot would not give conges. The Pope's engiceers having been asked to make a demonstration in his favor, pre ferred quitting the service. Thirty-niae out of forty-seven resigned, and ail the rank and file were disbanded- The same thing occurred in the artiSleiy. all the ol ficers having resigned, with the exception of three captains and a sergeant. *1 he rea son given is, that the French authorities relused to give litem any promise or guar antee as to the protection ol the rights of the people. General Oudinot has dismissed all the persons in office under the Republican Government, and even under Pius l\. himself, and put in their places all persons whom he could find that had held office under Gregory XV L The strangers at Rome during thes.ege may be thus cl assified :—Poles, 200; French, 50 ; Spaniards, Germans, and oth er foreigners, 100 ; Italians, not Romans, 3000.
