The Lewistown Hotel, a beautiful and excel lent stand, which commands an extensive cus tom, is offered for sale. Mr. SHELL, with his accustomed taste and liberality, has fitted up a beautiful Oyster Sa loon, where ladies and gentlemen can be ac commodated in a style not surpassed anywhere. N. J. RITIMLL has just received a new sup ply of fine Caps, to which he invites the atten tion of the public. JONES has received another lot of new goods, which, if he does not sell quickly, it will not be for the want of advertising. This store has sev eral rooms, one of which is appropriated to the sale of Dry Goods ; another to Groceries; a third to Ladies' Shoes; a fourth to Clothing. Roots, Shoes and Hats; ar.d a filth to Carpets. Persons interested in the estate of Agnes Hterritt, are referred to the Executors's notice. The administrators of G. W. Oliver, deceas ed, will dispose of the personal property on the 21st instant. Among his stock are 400 bushels of potatoes. Mr. MAW invites proposals for the construc tion of a dam, &c. By reference to an advertisement in another ci :mn, it will be seen that Freight Trains now i in regularly on the Central Railroad. TV We have devoted some space to the foreign news by the last arrival, which is of an important character, but still not de finite. Kossuth's letter to Lord Pajiner- is an eloquent document, which will find a place in history when the oppres sors of Hungary are forgotten. We have had rain, hail, and snow dur- I ir.g the present week, with some cold wea ther. A hard winter is predicted at the north, in consequence of the squirrels mi grating southwards. The Democratic Union office was con siderably injured by fire on Sundav morn ing last. We arc glad to learn that the loss is covered by insurance. * COMMON SCHOOLS LOR COLORED CHIL DREN. —Our exchanges are nearly all par ading a paragraph stating that the school directors of Pittsburgh have resolved to open a school for colored children in that city. In Lewistown this is nothing new —a school for colored children having been in operation for several years past. The Hon. CHARLES B. PENROSE has resigned the office of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, to which he was apjmint ed on the organization of the present Ad ministration—intending it is said, to return to the practice of law as a partner of Thaddeus Stevens. IRON. —It was recently asserted by the j iocofoeo papers that pig iron could be manufactured at £ls per ton, with a rea sonable protit. if this is true, why do not the locofoco capitalists of this county rent or purchase Isabella Furnace, situate in Lcwistown, and put it in operation ! This furnace possesses many advantages: an abundance of the best ore ''an be procured within a mile—charcoal could readily be | boated or hauled —and the pig iron can be loaded on canal boats at the door of the furnace, vet not one of these advocates of < cheap iron steps forward to make his for tune ! Madame Bodisco publishes a card in the Washington papers, in which she al together denies the statement set forth by the Washington correspondent of the New fork Courier and Enquirer relative to the banishment of her husband to .Siberia by the Emperor of Russia. She says that, she received letters by the last steamer, from her husband, stating that he had left; Russia 0:1 his return to America, and ' would arrive about the lirst of January. John C'.

Croat excite- : mem existed at St. Louis, and the popu lace was with much difficulty kept from wreaking their vengeance on tlu- assassins. FAYING FOII Tiir. FUN.—H appears by an port made to the County Board, that nearly a quarter of a million of dollars has been paid out of the Phil adelphia County Treasury since 1 830 for ihd suppression of riots. The New York Election takes place on Tuesday. One-fourth of the Tovvanda Bridge was destroyed by lire on Wednesday of lasi week. (I:N.

JOHN POTTER, Esq., an old and well known citizen of .New Jersey, died on Wednesday, at the residence of his son-in law Commodore Stockton, in Princeton, ai the advanced age of 85 years. FAST RUNNING.—A foot race between the celebrated runner Jackson and ten or twelve others, mostly Indians, was eon tested on the 24th ult. at Buffalo. The distance was ten miles, the first mile be ing run in 5 minutes 7 seconds, the tenth m 5 minutes 24 ' seconds, and the whole time 55 minutes 49.! seconds. It i- hard to beat ten miles in less than one hour. ! V The election for a United States Sen ator took place in the Illinois Legislature, on Saturday last, and resulted as follows: Ceil Shields, 72 ; Cyrus Edwards, 21.

KJPNVPPEKS. —The Huntingdon Globe says that two men were arrested in the neighborhood of Shade Gap, in that eoun ty, and placed in prison on Friday night of last week, charged with an attempt to kidnap a colored bov irt that ne ; *hborhood. One is said to he a man named Jonathan Little, formerly of Mitllin county. MIBDEK. —The same paper states that on Saturday eiening last two or three Irishmen went on board a canal boat as she entered the loek at the big dam about two miles above Huntingdon, and knocked down and threw overboard a colored man named David (_'. Williams. The oilier hands on the boat escaped uninjured.— Williams is represented to have been an honest, peaceable and industrious young man from Grecncastlc, Franklin county. The party committing this act, consisting of Michael Dolan, Flanagan, and the other unknown, have not yet been arrested, nor is it known where thev arc. THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD. —This great work is steadily progressing towards completion, and it two yejrs it is confi dently expected that it will be finished and in operation. A letter from the Associate Engineer, .Mr. Miller, to the President of the Company, says the road as far as com pleted, to Lewistown, earns an amount equal to live per cent, per anum 011 the cost, although it is not vet sufficiently ad vanced to command a large share of the Western travel. A further section will be opened to Waynesburgh early in the win ter; to Huntingdon in time for next spring's business; and to llollidnvsburg by next summer. This will bring the road, by a connection with the Portage, within seven ty miles ol Pittsburg, by turnpike, and 103 miles by canal. The part of the Western division just put under contract will extend the roatl twenty-six miles further west ward, and beyond all the ranges of West ern Pennsylvania. Of this distance, four teen miles of the heaviest work have been assigned to able and respectable contract ors, to be commenced immediately, and completed April Ist, 1851. The remain der is light work, and will be commenced in the spring, together with an additional section of similar character in connection with it, which will bring the road to the Southern Turnpike, at a point about forty miles from Pittsbnrg, ail of which will be pushed so as to be completed simultane ously by the time above named. By the spring of 1852, from present appearances, the cars will be running from Philadcphia to Pittsburg.

Latest Foreign News, We received on Satuiday our papers by the Euro pa, with full details of the interesting news from the Continent of Europe. By far the mod important feature of this intelligence is that which relates tothe Hungarian refugees at Widden. They seem, even in their exde, aurronniie' with alarming difficulties, and their situation cannot but excite the sympathy of!he whole civilized world. We invite attention to the noble letter of Kossuth to Lord Halmerston, as explaining more fully than the other extracts which we publish die peculiarity of Iheir po sition. We look upon them with deep concern; for after the humiliating proposition made to them by die Turkish ministry, by which, not withstanding previous assurances of protection, they were asked to renounce their religous faith, and the declaration of the council in favor of their extradition, we cannot look with that confidence which we once did upon the disposition of Turkey to maintain tiie rights of the vanquished. Turkey is divided within her self, and the council and ministry, with a re finement of tyranny peculiarly Turkish, will make die refusal of the unfortunate refugees to become apostates to Christianity, a pretext tor withdrawing from them their protection. It is reported, indeed, hy travellers from the Lower Danube, that Kossuth had yi'.lded to the barbarous demand and iiad embraced the Turkish faith, hut no one who reads his noble letter can fhr a moment yie'd credence to such a statement. The intelligence from France is of but little importance. The fact of Al. Pouwin's dismis sal by the American Government, was an nounced in Paris simultaneously wirft the an nouncement of the appointment ot the new en voy, M. L Compf, and produced some little • fleet at the Bouise, but in a couple of days all apprehensions of serious consequences abm doned the public mind The bellicose tone of some of the American journals had excited some remark on the part of tiie Paris press, but the whole atfair was treated with a de cidedly pacific tone. The American Envoy, Hon. Abbott Law rence, had armed at tendon with his family, and entered on the duties ot his office. .Mr. Macready appeared at the llaymarket Theatre, Luidon, on Monday, tiie Bih uist., in Macbeth. He was received by a dense audi ence with a tempest ofapplause, all parties. ac cording to the Times , being resolved "that the honors they bestowed should stand m marked contrast to the indignities offered on the other side of the Atlantic." Lird Palmerston and the Chancellor of the Exchequer had an interview on Friday wih the first l/rd o* the Admiralty and Rear Ad miral Dun.las.

A semi-official article in the Prussian Staat zanzrigcr declares that Prussia lias now re ceived tu!l satisfaction for the late affront to its troops on their arrival at Hamburgh. There is nothing new respecting the state of the nego tiations between the Prussian Cabinet and A Von Pechilin. The Intelligence from Sir John Franklin's long absent expedition has produced every where throughout England, the liveliest deli- lit and gr-itificai ion. The German journals convey the assurance that Prussia will persist in organizing the Con federation known s the League of the Three Kings, even though the Southern Sates and Austria refuse to adhere to it, as in fact, thev have already done iu the most explicit manner, i The accounts from Ireland relative to the potam crop are painfully dtsnlrnssing. The distress of tii<- people will therefore probably be greater than at any previous period, as the means of those able to afford them relief will fie more exhausted. Emigration, especially Irom tue south, is proceeding at a rapid rate. Extract from Kossuth's Letter to Lord Pul merston, dated WIDDIN, (Turkey,) September JO. i " May it please you, my lord, to allow- nie to communicate to your Excellency a most revolt , ing condition which tiie Turkish Government, at the suggestion of Russia, is afiout to impose upon us poor homeless exiles. " I, the governor of unhappy Hungary, after having, I believe, as a good citizen and honest man, fulfilled to the last my duties to my coun try, bad no choice left nie between the repose of the grave and the inexpressible anguish of expatriation " Many of my brethren in misfortune had preceded me on the Turkish territory. 1 fol lowed thither in the hope that I should be pcr ] mitted to pass to England, and there, under the protection of ttic English people—a protection I never yet denied to persecuted man—allowed to repose awhile my wearied head ou the hos i pitable shore of your happy island, j " But even with these views, I would rather have surrendered inv-elf to rny deadliest enemy than to cause any difficulty to the Turkish Gov ernment, w hose situation I well knew how to appreciate, and therefore did not intrude on the I urkish territories without previously inquiring whether 1 and iny companions in misfortune would be willingly received, and the protection of the Sultan granted to us. " We received the assurance that wc were welcome guests, and should enjoy the full pro tection of his majesty the Padisha, who would rather sacrifice .10, Out) men of his own subjects than allow one hair ot our heads to he injured. " It was only upon this assurance that we passed into Turkish territory, and according to , the generous assurance wc were received and tended on our journey, received in Widdin as the Sultan's guests, and treated hospitably dur j ing four weeks, whilst waiting Irom Constant!- | nople further order* as to the continuation of our *ad journey to some distant shore, " Even the ambassadors of England and France, to whom I ventured in the name of hu | inanity to appeal, were so kind as to assure rnc . of their full sympathy. "His Majesty the Sultan was also so gra cious as to give a decided negative to the inhu j man pretensions of our extradition demanded by Russia and Austria. " But a fresh letter from his Majesty the Czar arrived in Constantinople, and its consequence was the suggestion sent to us by an express messenger oi the Turkish government, that the ; Poles and Hungarians, and particularly myself, Count Casimer Bathiany, Minister of Foreign j Affairs ol Hungary under rny government, and the Generals Me snares and Perczel, (all present here ) would be surrendered, unlc-s we chose to abjure the faith of our forefathers in the re. , ligiou oi Christ :uid become Mussulmans. And thus five thousand Christians are placed in the terrible alternative either of facing the scaffold I or of purchasing their lives by abandoning their faith. So low is already fallen the once mighty ' Turkey that she can devise no other means to answer or evade the demands of Russia. " Words fail me to qualify these astonishing snggestions, such as never have been made yet to the fallen chief of a generous nation, and could hardly have been expected in the 19th ' century. " My answer does not admit of hesitation. Between death and shame the choice can be neither dubious or difficult. Governor of Hun gary, and elected to that high place by the con fidence of fifteen millions of my countrymen, I know w ell what I owe to the honor of my coun try, even in exile. Even as a private individual 1 have an honorable path to pursue. Once the Governor of a generous country—l leave no heritage to my children —they shall at least bear an unsullied name. God's w ill be clone. ! am prepared to die ; but as 1 think this mea sure dishonorable and injurious to Turkey, whose interest 1 sincerely have at heart, and as I feci it a duty to save my companions in exile, if f can, from a degrading alternative, I have replied to the Grand Vizier in a conciliatory manner, and took also the liberty to apply to Sir Stratford Canning and General Aupich for their generous aid against this tyrannic act. In full reliance on the noble sentiments and gener ous principles of your Excellency, by which, as well as through your wisdom, you have secured the esteem of the civilized world, i trust to be excused in inclosing copies of my two letters to the Grand Vizier and Sir Stratford Canning. " 1 am informed that the whole matter is a cabal against the ministry of Reschid Pacha, w hose enemies would wish to force him to our extradition in order to lower it in public esti mation, and render impossible its continuance in office. It is certain that the grand council held on the 9th and 10th of September, after a tumultuous debate, the majority of the council declared in favor of our extradition, the major ity of the ministry against it. No decision was come to, in consequence of the altercation which took place; but, notwithstanding, the ministry thought fit to make u.> the revolting suggestion 1 have named. "This mode of solving the difficulty would not, 1 am convinced, save the ministry, because a protection only given, in contradiction of the Sultan's generous feeling, at the price of five thousand Christians abandoning tbeir faith, would be revolting to the whole Christian world, and prove hardly calculated to win sym pathies for Turkey in the event of a war with Russia, which, in the opinion of the most ex perienced Turkish statesmen, is approaching fast. "As to my native country, Turkey does, I believ-e, already feel the loss of the neglected opportunity of having given to Hungary at least some moral help to enable it to check the ad vance of the common enemy. But it appears to trie that it would be a very ill-advised mode of gaining Hungarian sympathy by sending me to an Austrian scaffold, and forcing rny unhap py companions to abjure their religion or ac cept the same alternative. ".No friends to the Turkish government would spring up front my blood shed by her broken faith, but many deadly foes. My lord, your heart will, I am sure, excuse my having called your attention to our unhappy fate, since it has now assumed political importance. A bandoned in this unsocial land by the whole world, even the first duties of humanity give us no promise of protection unless, my lord, you and your generous nation come forward to pro tect us. " What step* it may be expedient that vou should lake—what we have a right to expect from the well-known generosity of England—it would be hardly fitting for n.e to enter on. 1 place my own and my companions' fate in your hands, rny lord, and in the name of humanity throw myself under the protection of England. " Time presses—our doom may in a few days be sealed. Allow me to make an humble per sonal request. 1 am a man, my lord, prepared to face the worst; arid I can die with a free look at Heaven, as 1 have lived. But lam also, my lord, a husband, son, and father; my pour, true-hearted wife, my children, and my uobie old mother, are wandering about Hungary.— They will probably soon fall into the bands of those Austrians who delight rn torturing even feeble women, and with whom the innocence of childhood is no protection against persecu tions. 1 conjure your Excellency, in the. name of the Most High, to put a stop to these cruel ties by your powerful mediation, and especially to accord to my wife and children an asylum on the soil of the generous English people. " As to my poor, niy loved, and noble coun- : try, must she, too, perish forever r Shall she, unaided, abandoned to her fate, and unavenged, he doomed to annihilation by her tyrants ? Will England, once her hope, not become her conso lation ? "The political interests of civilized Europe, so many weighty considerations respecting Eng land herself, and chiefly the maintenance of the Ottoman Empire, are too intimately hound up with the existence of Hungary for me to lose all hope. My lord, may God the Almighty for many years shield you, that you may long pro tect the unfortunate, and live to be the guardian of the rights of freedom and humanity. 1 sub scribe myself, with the most perfect respect and esteem, (igned) '• L KOSSUTH."

NEW COUNTERFEIT.— We learn from the Lancaster Tribune that Counterfeit Five Doliar bills on the Harrisburg Bank ere in circulation in that vicinity. They are of Letter A, and of various dates. The signature of Thomas Elder, the President, is pretty well imitated ( but that of J. W. Wier, the Cashier, is poorly executed. Tire engraving of the whole note is very coarsely done, and not at all calculated to deceive any one who has the least judge ment in such matters. Counterfeit Threes on the Beividere Bank , are now in circulation ; the filling up is rather ! smooth'y done, but the bungling manner in which the name of the bank in the body ot the bill is in-erted, will readily detect the coun terfeit. The vignette of the counterfeit rep resents shipping, steamboat, in the harbor and is entirely ditlerenl from the genuine. The words " State of New Jersey," on the right hand end is also very clumsily inserted. With a little care no one need be deceived As the recent rise in Coffee is of inter est to all classes, we copy the following report of the state of the market at Rio, i from whence our principal supply is do- ; rived : Rio Dk JANEIRO, Sept. 10th. Coffee—More favorable accounts from Eu rope, and the certainty that the new crop will not, on the average, be halt the preceding ! one, hut, in the opinion utmost, not exceed one third, have caused prices to advance very con siderably, and the transactions have been vers extensive both for Europe and the United States. At the moment, the market is quiet, | but the dealers are very firm in their prices, superior 7.1 a 8c ; good firsts, 6| a 7 l-5c on board, for new crop; of old, there still remains some quantity in the interior, which may give a fair supply to the market until January next, but afterwards, very little can be expected.— Many planters have already sent all their new to market, and many have none at all to send, j So general n failure was never before known | in Brazil, and has proved much greater than we anticipated in February and March last. The | last advices from Europe, to 16th of Julv, have ! rather checked the demand, but should they ; be at ail favorable by the next packet, it will revive again, and we should not he surprised to see prices advance still more.

Y\ ithout anything like animation, the Corn and F lour trade has been tolerably steady dur ing the week, and late prices have been fully supported for the prime qualities of each arti cle.
