RAUROAD AGENT. — SAMUEL MILLIKEX, Jr., lately of Philadelphia, has been appointed agent at the depot near this place, the duties of which (•dice, from his experience in general business, will no doubt be performed in a manner satis factory to all concerned. The Democrat states that the five Irishmen whose arrest for rape we noticed last week, got off by compromising the matter. This course may save the expeneesof a prosecution, but is it not contrary to law to compromise a high criminal offence ? Aj point nit' lit by tiie Governor. GEORGE FRVSINGER, Esq., editor of the Lew istown Gazette, to be Notary Public, vice H. J. Walters. We congratulate our neighbor, and trust it may prove a source of larger revenue to him than it did to his predecessor. This is one of the most sensible appointments Gov. Johnston has made. True Democrat. About the latter, friend Walters, we don't know. We might have thought so too were the office worth some $5OO or $lOOO a year, but as the next twelve or fifteen months will probably not do more than pay cost of seal, commission, blanks, &LC., we must console ourself, like the Colonels and Lieutenant Colonels, with being an office-holder with more honor than profit. J. P.

Dar ling arrived at New Orleans on the 11th inst, on the steamship Galveston from Texas, with the remains of the gallant Gen. Worth. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company have concluded an arrangement with the Harm-burg and Lancaster Railroad Company, by which the cars of the Pennsylvania road will run through from Lewistown to Diilersviiie. The Eagle Line of cars is drawn off entirely. A vessel has arrived at New London, Conn , from Davis Straits, the captain and crew of which speak of hearing of Sir John Franklin's ships in Prince Regent's IriieL The natives say that the ships had remained there four sea con?, embedded in the ice, and were still sur rounded by ice. The Indians also reported that the crews were alive and well. This agrees with a report by the Niagara, which had been received at Hull, England. Ltcororo HYPOCRISY. — Mr. Deal the re cently elected Sheriff of Philadelphia, entered upon ins duties !a.-.t week, and in advance made a " clean t weep" of all the incumbents. N'ot even the driver of the prison wagon, or the In 11 -poster escaped. There were hungry applicants tor every post, and the doctrine of Locofocoi.-iin, that "to the victors belong the spoils," fmbade that, a single officer, no matter how competent or capable should be retained. THE Mississippi Senator paid A visit to Mr. BUCHANAN HI Lancaster lately. HE onee de • .ared in the Senate that, if A Northern man came to his State, and dared to avow sentiments HI opposition to slavery, he would be ready to sssist IN hanging him upon the first tree that of fered. And yet in the face of this fact, says the Columbia Spy, we can find journals of our own State, who in noticing his visit, speak ol hun us "the fearless ar.d eloquent champion ol Democracy.'' The following is the official vote in the Union and Juniata Representative district: .-if'-r M l.augtiilu.

The road for which it has been bought is not named. We hope some of the advocates of free trade in this county will calculate how many men would have been employed, anil what quantity j of produce they and their families would have j consumed, had these SIXTEEN THOI SAND TONS been manufactured here, at fair rates I for labor, instead of being made by the pauper labor of England. Such is one of the effects of a free trade tariff, and the above one instance out of a hundred in which railroad companies have resorted to Europe for Iron rails, simply because a locofoco tariff admits them at a duty > ruinous to ll.e American laborer. "Buy cheap" • may he a very good motto for the rich, but to make any article, cheap the poor man must la bor cheap. That, at least, is our view of the I matter. THE PHILADELPHIA SlN. —The editor of the i Philadelphia Sun, who is an office-holder in the i custom house, thinks that there ought to be a I new pa|>ei established at Harrisburg to give a more effectual support to the administrations of i the National and State Governments, and talks as if the whigs were ready to fall in with such an absurd scheme. The Telegraph is now one of the best conducted papers in the State, and it. as well as the Intelligencer, gives entire sat isfaction to the wings of the interior. The Sun man, we think, had better establish a paper for those with whom he allied himself at the late election, namely, some of the most bitter oppo i nents of Gen. Taylor and Governor Johnston j that can be found in the city of Philadelphia. ! As for the whigs, they neither want trie aid nor advice of such political trimmers. The editor of the Ledger, it would appear from the following paragraph, is turning Ma homedan. Speaking of a probable war in Eu rope. he says : Such a war would bring a new element into ' the politic* of Europe, in aid of liberal institu tions. Mahoinedanism, which is now progres sive, and has always been highly favorable to i social morals, as appears in the superior hones ty. sobriety, charity and piety of all Mahome dan communities, would aid toleration against the corruption of the Roman and the rapacity of the Greek churches. Mahomedanism, which recognises the Old and New Testaments with the Koran, is like Judaism, strictly monotheic, eminently democratic in tendency, and there fore the high road to liberal Christianity. This may startle the partisans of Church aiul Stale ; but it is true. Being "highly favorable to social morals ," j must mean the allowance of four wives and as many concubines as a man can support, which j the Koran grants , and " democratic in tenden- I cy" an absolute despotism, which strikes ofi heads at the nod of a Sultan or Pasha, and bas tinadoes every poor devil who is brought before a magistrate, whether guilty or not. If such a 1 religion is highly favorable to social morals and democratic in tendency, wc commend it to the respectful consideration of our locofoco ! brethren who belong to that progressive school which knowcth not what uci c principle a day . may bring forth. It would doubtless guit*orae of them. Railroad kttinz.

We pause for a reply.— Ere u ing Host. We can explain it. There has been no 'change jof forty thousand votes.' It w ill be found that Gamble, just elected Canal Commissioner, has received fewer votes than were cast for Gen. Cass. The only ' change' consists in the fact - that the whigs (as they usually do in ordinary I elections,) stayed at home and the locofocos i voted. Latest Foreign News.

The Paris Moniteur of last night states that the French Government entirely disavows the conduct of V. Poussin. It also announces the appointment of M. liois I,e Compt, at present French Minister at Turin, to be Minister Plen ipotentiary at Washington, lie is to be re placed at Turin by M. Marat. The Turkish Ambassador in Paris bad an interview with the French Minister of For eign Affairs on Thursday, which lasted two i hours.

WASHINGTON COUNT T HINT.— The IVashing ton Reporter of the 17th inst. states that a num ber of citizens of that county recently organized for the purpose of a grand hunt, dividing into two parties, one under Capt. Bausman of the Reporter, and the other under Captain Biyson. It was agreed that Ihc party beaten should pay for a supper for the whole. The game counted —and by the terms of the agreement, none was to be received after 9 o'clock—was, by Captain Bryson's party 1/273, arid by Captain Bailsman's 1,0ti7, giving Capt. Bryson a majority of 20G. But 20 minutes after nine Capt. Bausman ar rived with 455 pieces, which, could they have been counted, would have given him a majority of 249. The Reporter says : This was certainly the greatest hunt that has ever taken place in this country, and excited intense interest in both town and country. The whole amount of the different kinds of game killed, as counted by the Committee, was : Squirrels, 1,593; Partridges, 21; Pigeons, 15; Hawks, 5 ; Owls, 6; Crows, 5 ; Coons, 2G; Phea sants, 19; Ground-hogs, 4; Ducks, 2; Opos sums, 134; Rabbits, 23—making a total of 2,340. Add to this Captain Bailsman's excluded game, 455, and we have a grand total of 2,795. In the excluded game of Captain Bausman, there were 316 squirrels, 9 Coons, 12 Opossums, 4 Phea sants, 2 Rabbits, with sundry other game. INTERESTING FROM THE CAMANCHES.—YY'E learn from the National Intelligencer that ac counts have heen received at the YY'ar Depart ment respecting an important National Council recently held by the Catnanche Indians. The council lasted ten days, and its object was to elect a new chief to rule the nation, in place of the one recently deceased. The individnal chosen glories in the the name of Buffalo Hump. On being installed into ollice, after the Indian fashion, he addressed the council, saying that lus people had formerly made war upon Texas when it was " feeble and alone," and had gained nothing; and he gave it as his opinion that if they now continued to make war upon Texas since it had become apart of the United States, the result would be their utter destruction as a nation. He also expresied his determintion to do all in his power to put a stop to the thieving depredations which had been committed by a portion of his people against the white inhabi tants. and expressed a hope that his efforts would be successful. The prominent members of the council having agreed to the advice of Buffalo Hump , two subordinate chiefs were ap pointed to communicate in person the result of the council to Capt. Steele, of the 2d dragoons, at Fredericksburgh, by whom a report was made to Gen. Brooke, commanding in Texas, who forwarded it to the YY'ar Department. OREGON. — A correspondent of the New York Courier, who is in California, gives the follow ing account of Oregon. 1 met a gentleman a day or so since, just down from Oregon, and was greatly interested to learn from a practical man of observation, facts connected with that country. Timber in great variety, he says, inay be seen, and much of it six to ten feet in diameter, 250 to 3UO feet high, and free from knots. In illustration, he said, he *aw one mill, recently erected, with two saws, that were cutting GOOO feet of lumber per day, the mill being operated by water by a stream from a lake three miles distant, into which lake the timber was felled, and floated thence direct to the mill, sawed, and turned out the other end, to where a vessel was ready to re ceive it and sail for market. Oregon, is without doubt the greatest iumber country in the world. By an estimate made, with some care, there arc standing within a circle of three miles around this null, timber enough to last one hundred years and cutting GOOO feet per day. As for the wheat of that country, Mr. N. tells me G5 lbs. to tiie bushel was the ordinary weight, and the handsomest he had ever seen. This satisfactorily accounts to me for what, when 1 first was at the mines, seemed a strange preference on the part of the Oregonians—their giving $5 a $8 per barrel more for flour from Oregon than any other. The cattle said Mr. N., are unequalled ; for oxen, brought from the States, will improve so in one year as hardly to be known by their former owners. A Califor man's Experience. The following is extracted from a private let ter, written to the New Orleans Bulletin, by one who made the trip in one hundred days by the ('orpus Christi route. After giving an amus ing account of his adventures and a description of San Francisco, he ssvs : " A small 1G x 38 weather-boarded house, rough inside and out, has cost $28,000, and rents for $2OllO a year, payable in advance. Building lots are worth from $4OOO to SIO,OOO. I pity the poor devils who have bought and buiit at these prices, for in six months they w ill not he able to realize one-tenth of their outlay. Those who have eonse out with goods are bound to lose money. Goods have been shipped from all the Pacific ports, which can always supply the country witii the required provisions. [Our friend here gives the story of his travel to the diggins, and then says:] The gold is not on the surface, as has been represented, but you have to dig deep for it, tear up the solid rock, work in the water, and then it is all luck wheth er you get much or none. The work is of the hardest kind, and after trying it, 1 may candidly say, that I would rather drive a dray or roll boxes on the I.cvce, than follow it up. To all who purpose coming out. 1 would advise them first to begin at daylight and carry kegs of nails, boxes of tin, or any other heavy packages. From the sidewalk of any street HI New Orleans car ry them into the store and pile them up, do not | stop for breakfast, or lunch or liquor ; at noon stop an hour and cat a small piece of salt pork and a ship's biscuit, and then work until sun down, and see how you feel If you can then :■ find a comfortable night's sleep on the ground, under a tree, with a single blanket and a million , ants running over you, and enjoy all this, you can then come out to California and live six months, and be able to save with good luck at : digging, from $3OO to $15,000. It is all in the luck, for where there is one who has made •45000 or $lO,OOO, there are 500 who have not $5OO, and all doing the same labor. There is , no doubt that California is one vast gold mine, lint it requites much hard labor to get it out. Five years hence, when labor can be hired, ' regular mining companies w ill realize fortunes." The letter concludes by saying, that if the church get* as many repentant sinners within the year, a* there arc repentant miners at the "diggins," her population and prosperity will he enormously increased. SEIZURE AT NEW YORK. —The Dry Goods Reporter states that suspicions have been enter tained for some time that parties in that city were defrauding the Government by fraudulent invoice* in the entry of cloth. Officers have been ferretting out the roguery, and during the week several invoices have heen detained, and about $5,000 worth of cloth seized, which were invoiced from forty to ten per cent, below their fair valuation. The above is another illustration of the beau ties of the ml valorem system, which offer* a pre mium for rascality, and places the fair and hoq orubl* import*r ut the nuTcy ot his uiHt'rupu* , h>us arid di-horu st oomprtitors. WHEELING, Oct. 20. COMPLETION OF TRISUSPENSION BRIDGE The grand Wire Suspension Bridge across the Ohio was completed to-day, and Mr. EHet, the distinguished architect, rode across it for the first time. The experiment proved emi nently successful. A large concourse ot per sons was assembled upon each side of the riv er to see the apparently hazardous feat. When the intrepid and daring projector and buiider started iiia horse and buggy upon the noble span, he was saluted by the firing of cannon and loud cheers from the adiriring multitude. The animal attached to the vehicle progres sed steadily, and Mr. Ellet gained the opposite shore in triumph, where he was again greeted with loud huzzas. HARRISULRO, Oct. 19, CONVICTION —Jonathan G. Mills, a dentist of this place, who was charged with theseduc tion of three young women, sisters in this place, was tried on one of the charges before our Court of Quarter Sessions, and lire jury this morning brought in a verdict of guilty. THE Two WANTS IN CALIFORNIA. — A letter From San Francisco says:—"At present, (as the common saying here is,) there are two things really in demand, viz : women and lumber, the former being exceedingly rare, and the latter bringing from $250 to $4OO per thousand feet." It K I APK RJIJDICKI),—Let no fooli.-li per sons l>e go prejudiced against this now truly celebrated medicine a* to dcgpise this advice ; let it be used immedi ately on pain beine fell! no matter where it maybe, whether in the head or feel, whether it be in the hack or abdomen, whet her a rising front external orinternal cause, use the Rraiidn-th'a fills,and rely upon it, that the pain will go, the body will be restored to health as goon as nn ture has received sufficient ASSISTANCE from their effect. The quantity of impure humors discharged from the ' bod) bv the action of the Brnndreth's Pills, is replaced in the course of a few hours with new and pure blood, by the digestion of a moderate meal. By purging the body with this medicine the whole mass of blood becomes en tirely purified and regenerated. That the blood is the life of the body, I presume is un disputed, therefore I shall say that it being the SEAT or i Li FE, it must also be the seat of disease. If disease be in | the blood, we should abstract the disease only, not the ' blood. It is the impurities which must be removed by ■ purgation to secure our health, in all states of the weatner, • in all situations, and in all climates. The blood, like a good spirit, is always trying to benefit the body by its struggles to exp< I impurities. But it is not capable to ef fect its own purification at all tiuies : to do ibis it must often have assistance. When the blood is loaded with im purities, especially in this climate, the consequences may be fatal, provided the blood i not purified at once, and this is sure to be e dec ted if Ltrandreth'a Pills are used.

Since then a card hits appeared in the city papers signed by Geo. Maxwell, Andrew C. Barclay, John M. Kennedy, A. J. Derbyshire, Win. M. Kennedy, Joseph Cleaver, Philip Rey bold, John C. Clark, and Geo. G. Cleaver, who aver that they are owners of nine-tenths ofthe stock, fully acquainted with the issues and assets of the bank, and bind themselves that the notes will be paid in gold and silver on presentation. The signers we know are considered men of wealth, and the Bank may be as solvent as re presented, but the mere fact stated that nine individuals own nine-tenths of the stock, does not speak very strongly in its favor, as these nine persons can of course control the loans, Ac. without check or hindrance ; and where temptation exists in speculating times, it is sometimes difficult for the best of men to let well enough alone.
