C 0 tn w u u t c *T t I 0 u ss. foe lie Gazelle. There are spots on earth where the heart of man is mellowed into those feelings which a celebrated writer describes as consisting of less of earth than Heaven ; where the surrounding scenery, though neither grand nor sublime, acts with a strange power 011 the imagination. A hal lowed peace seems to pervade its preeincts ; lite mind goes hack, to halcv on ua\ s, w lien neither care nor sorrow wrang the brow ; the events of lite pass rapidly before the vision ; and the eye then rests upon some sequestered spot, sheltered by an evergreen pine, or hemlock, a sturdy oak, or ntayhap a cluster of laurel, with a secret wish that there might repose his mortal remains when death shall have ended the turmoils <■l life. The Episcopal burying ground, on tite banks of the Kishacoquillas creek, near this borough, seems to be one ot these favored spots, and several already re pose in its quiet shades, who, vhiie liv ing, expressed the wish that " WHEN I AM SO MORE, HERE LET ME REST." Without any pretensions to writing poetry, I send vou some lines, expressing a desire like that spoken of, which were suggested to m\ nimd by the realization of such aw ish bv one who sometime since took his 'de parture for another world. HERE LET ME REST. When the last throb of life from my frame shall depart, 1 ask for a boon that my body may lie, beneath some evergreen pine—the spot of my heart.— Where Kishacoquilla* rorues murmuring by. Oh ! there let me rest, with the dreams of my youth, T,i! the last sleep of earth shall be broken— With the Kalmia's sweet-scented blossoms, like Truth. Of a bright happy future the token. 1 know not, 1 care not, what earth's scenes may disclose, Whethertempestand storm o'ers'nadow my lot, Cut welcome be death, when in silent repose, I can lay me to rest in that cherished spot— Where lov'd ones with flowers my grave shall bedeck, And moisten the plants with sweet memory's tears, Or weep that thus early, there is but a wreck Of fond hopes crush'd, in the bloom of my years. Oh ' oft have I gazed at the steeps of yon wild wood, Where the evergreen pine rears its tow Ting head, And look'd at the shades, where in gay happy chilhood, On flow'ring greensward I pillowed my head. Oh ' then here let me rest, with the dreams of my youth, Tilt the last sleep of earth shall be broken ; With the Kalmia's sweet-scented blossoms, like Truth. Of a bright happy future the token. T. P. F r the Cazctle. DAMCI .? C . "We all know how prone the human mind is to acknowledge error; how diffi cult to avoid that which the judgement con .t urns, while the inclination approves ; and that it requires a strong mind to break from i ven the most trilling habit, if indulged in !< xjjosirtg him to such a temptation. Such has also been tin ease with liquor. Years ago the first act ol hospitality was ettirig a bottle out for the \i>iter, and it was nothing uncommon to have a bottle ol whiskey or brandy daily on the dinner table, and every round in the harvest field was toasted by all hands with a dram.— Hut it was found that rnatij children who had not the power to resist the temptation, became intemperate before arriving at years of maturity, and pang upon pang has been sent to die heart ol more than one father and mother who had first placed the eup to a blooming youth, now perhaps an irre claimable drunkard. It may p< rbaps said that intemperance slid exist* ir as great a degree as ever. Jll some communities probably it does it may be even in our own—but if there is ,{hc love of it in no longer imbibed nJ home. That spot, sn sacred and hallow ed to the memory of all who u look back into the vista ol the past as: the one most dear on earth, can rni mil'- . be pointed it b'. the drunkard as the i place where he was first taught to love the : then nauseating draught. ■ And now, a concluding paragraph, and 1 i have clone witlj my young friends who still j make merry at public balls. They will I bear me witness that my writings " nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice/' : and what has been said, is more of an of fering as food for reflection than censure. 1 am not one who would curtail your rea sonable enjoyments. 1 would not have vou set down as demure as a deal and dumb assembly, but make your pleasures moderate, sensible and rational. Ask your self, then, whether the enjoyment of a night at such a gathering, with its usual aceom | paniments of drinking, and too often riot ing, with its demands on the mind, the body, and purse, is worth the cost ? Surely, you cannot -persuade yourself that it is. Are three, four, live, or six dollars so easily earned that you can atford to throw away that amount in one night when one-half, considerately used, would procure more than the same amount of rational enjoy ment ? Ask yourself, too, whether you are not on that high road which will lead you to place but little value on money, procured perhaps by hard labor, and that by pursu ing this course you may arrive at the stage when every dollar in your pocket has an itching restlessness that will urge you on to spend it. However incredulous \ou may look, rely upon it, my friend, there are such people i/i the world, and not a few in number. Habit, engendered in youth and grown with years, has created an ambitious feeling in their bosoms to have it said that Messrs. So and So were at such a ball, at a cost of five or ten dollars, though their means may be far from sufficient to justify such extravagance. Gradually they ac quire that itching of which I speak for spending money, and the result is, they will soon become as much the slave of it as is the drunkard to the liquor first taken from t he same motive. Though apparently in dustrious, when such persons enter into the bonds of matrimony with one who has de rived her ideas of life in the public ball room, a few years suffice to roll them back wards, and the result is an unhappy mar riage, broken hearts, and a life of privation —or in other words, love flies out of the window while poverty enters in at the door. It is often remarked by well-meaning per sons, .Mr. and Mrs. A. are hard-working people, but somehow cannot tret along right, lli-healtli and other causes at times contri bute to produce this result, but how often is it brought about by the pocket-itch The husband earns money enough to live* comfortably and lay by something for a rainy day, is punctually paid, but somehow it gets out of his pocket, and when rent clay comes round, he is astonished that he has hardly the shadow of cash wherewith to pay it! !Ie has forgotten that on one evening he treated half a dozen of old friends—another day he purchased more of some article than could well be used— another bought this, that or something else, of no earthly use to him. and with such a routine, week after week, is it wonderful that he is not" well-to-do V The attender j of public balls, in my opinion, is on the j spendthrift's broad and inviting road, in the same manner as is the youth who indulges in frequent potations on that of drunkenness, j or the penny card player on that of gam bling—and hence, I have called attention ' to it, because it is better at all times to avoid 1 evil than to court temptation, and in the I hope that some who have thus far thought > lightly of the subject, may he brought to view their career in true colors. S. W. For tin Gazette. The attention of the borough officers is respectfully requested to the following in terrogatories, which, it is presumed, will meet with a willing and cheerful response in the next Gazette, \Lz : Is there a borough ordinance requiring the snow to he removed from the pave ments ? If there be such an ordinance, whose duty is it to enforce it ? If there lie no such ordinance, should not one he passed without delay f Ordinances of this kind, it is believed, j are common in other boroughs, and have ' proved to be very salutary. It is, with great respect, submitted to the wisdom of j the borough officers, whether it would not : he better to have no such ordinance, than 10 have one daily and hourly broken and disregarded. AN IKUI IRKR. For the Gazette. Accident* <>n the Uallroad, The recent accident on the Pennsylvania Railroad will naturally call attention to this j subject for some weeks to come, as the j citizens of this part of the JState are not \ yet used to have their necks and hones ; broken in this new fashioned way. fare- j lul agents, who would rather wait a week than run the chance of a collision, might do much to present such occurrences, if those ha\ingtitc power would employ them. In the meantime, as the lawmakers are in session, how would it answer to inquire it.to tin cipcilieuey of passing a supple- , m nl compelling either the Chief Engineer, an Associate, an Assistant, or one of the l>i rectors, to set in front of the engine on each train, ssv on the cow-catcher, or an arm-chair might he provided for the occa sion ' It is generally believed that such a regulation would most effectually prevent collisions of all kinds, and the passengers could feel " quite at home'' in the cars.— Something of this kind I think was at one time suggested in England, and resulted in placing gates on the road, with keepers, as much to keep cattle from it as to prevent foolhardy conductors and engineers lrom risking the lives of those under theireharge.

Wo are authorised to say that a reward ! of ST>O will he paid by the Burgess and Town Council of the Borough of Lewis j town for such information as will convict i the miscreant or miscreants who cut the Hose at the tire on Friday evening of last week ; and a similar reward will be paid for the conviction of any person or persons cutting the hose at any fire hereafter. In accordance with the general wish of our citizens, we learn that the Town Coun cil lias appointed a committee to procure four hundred and JiJ'ti/ feel of new hose, together with a new Reel; and also ap pointed another committee to examine into the practicability of repairing the okl en gine, which is said to tie constructed on the most approved principle ; or if it can not be rendered lit for service, to purchase a new one. The Burgess and Town Council reeom ■ mend to the citizens to form two llose | Companies ami one Engine Company, and i upon evidence of a proper organization, j we have no doubt the several apparatus will be delivered into their hands.

A large quantity of grain was brought ! to town within the last few weeks, farmers I in all directions having taken advantage of the fine sleighing.

Senator Hopper has also taken advan ! tage of the weather to make "hay" while | the sun was shining, and has ice enough 1 now to keep most folks cool during the next summer. The Huntingdon folks are talking | of constructing a plank road to M'Alavey's Fort, and calculate , if extended to < 'entre county, it would secure most of the travel now coming to Lewistown. Doubtful. Vv ' The Democrat takes exception to our article in last week's paper on Post Ofiice Robberies, and says then-is some ; " probable apology" for its publication because both the President's and Gover nor's Messages appeared together! If the facts stated in that article arc not true, why not deny them? Our neighbor well knows that for every postmaster removed the cry of" Proscription," " Another Vic tim," " the Guillotine," is raised by liis political adherents and occasionally by himself. If then those whom the leniency or the mistaken policy of the administra tion at Washington has retained in office commit depredations, let them, as Itwofo •(<. bear the blame : if wliigs. ditto. p inr On Friday evening ol last week our citizens wove again alarmed by the cry of lire, which was found to proceed from a stable in an alley between Market and Third streets. The lire originated in a stable jointly occupied by Mrs. Shaw and Mr. M'Ewen, and spread rapidly to Mrs. •Oriswell's, Mrs. Marks's, (filled with hay), and J. W. Shaw's, (occupied by Mr. Frank,) all of which were in whole or part consumed, with a considerable quantity of hay, straw, &e. The gable end of Mr. M'Clure's barn was rapidly burning at one time, but the strenuous exertions made by several of our young men who ascended the roof, aided by those below in furnishing water in buckets, fortunately succeeded in arresting it, as had this building burnt, a long row of barns and stables would inevi tably have shared the same fate. Zerbe's carriage making establishment, although at O T 7 fc I different times in imminent danger, was saved by the hose, aided by a number who exerted themselves in the most praisewor thy manner. Mr. M'E wen's cow was unfortunately burnt. The property consumed was worth perhaps SIOOO or sl2oo—Mrs. Marks, we believe, being the only one insured. The fire is variously attributed to acci dent, carelessness, snd design, hut with no definite information to fix it upon either ; although cutting the hose would seem to indicate the last mentioned. Collision on the Pennsylvania Railroad. At the time of our going to press on Friday of last week, fears were entertained that a serious accident had occurred on the railroad, as the cars due on the previous evening had not arrived at that time (2 o'clock, I'. M.) These apprehensions, we regret to say, were fearfully realized. The passenger train from M'Veytown left Lewistown a little after nine o'clock on Thursday, and proceeded on its way cast at the rate of 25 miles an hour. At a place | known as the " J'oor Man's Spring,"' near Baileysville, in Perry county, where there is a considerable curve round the mountain, the western burthen train was seen ap proaching, but at so short a distance that it was found impossible to stop either train. The result mav well he conceived. V most terrible collision took place, demolishing both engines, tenders, two burthen cars, breaking the baggage car, and somewhat injuring the passenger cars. F. K. Ileis ley, of llarrishurg, supervisor of the road, ! was on the tender, making efforts to reach 1 the baggage car when the collision took i place, and was so much injured that he died shortly afterwards. Joseph Ilahn, the con ductor of the passenger train, had a leg ' broken and his left foot crushed. Henry j Hull, the engineer on the passenger train, was scalded about the legs and feet, hut not dangerously. He is said to have ex- ! hihited much presence of mind, having re- [ versed his engine the moment he saw the - ! other train coming round the curve, rati over the tank and jumped on top of the baggage car before the collision took place, j Mr. Cook, the baggage master, was slight ly hurt. The passengers escaped serious injury. The conductor, engineer, and fire man of the burthen train all jumped elf in ' safety—and the first named, a Mr. Bcale, of Juniata county, to whom, if we are cor rectly informed, the accident is attributable, at once fled into the mountains. The dead and wounded were taken to liarrisburg. The loss to the company cannot be less than from $15,000 to $20,000. It is said that the burthen train, which ought to have remained at Duncannon, was within three minutes of making the station at Bailey's: and what is remarkable the two trains met on the very spot more like- Iv to create a fatal collision than perhaps any other between this place and Harris burg. When the Central road was put in ope ration, we entertained hopes that a long time would elapse before we would he called upon to chronicle so sad a disaster as that given above, or if any occurred, that it would he one of those which no human ken could foresee. In this respect, we must confess, we have been grievously disappointed, and we also believe that the public has been equally so. The lives of passengers ought not to be placed at the mercy of every reckless conductor or en gineer who may choose to jeopard their safely, by taking upon himself the respon sibility of proceeding from one station to another when passenger trains arc due ; and the company owes it to the travelling community, as well as those residing along the line who now have no other mode Sir—The postmaster general, after careful ! consideration of the question as to the right of i postmasters, that have the privilege of franking, j to frank letters to publishers of newspapers cov ering money for subscriptions or the names of J subscribers, has decided, that when the postmas ter is agent for the publisher, he has the power ! to frank such letters, and his agency will be pre | surncd from the fact that he franks them. As | no postmaste-r kas any authority to frank these ; communications but when he is such an agent, it is proper to regard him as acting in that e&pa- I city when he so conducts, until information is received to the contrary, in doing this busi ness, the postmaster must be regarded as entire ly the agent of the publisher and not of the de partment. Very respectfully, Ac., RRRZ HENRY WARREN. We hereby authorize every Postmaster in Miff lin county to act as agent for the Gazette, and on all sums of $2 and up | wards to retain 10 per cent, for their j trouble. This will pay quite as well to ob tain subscriber* for the Gazette as for city j papers. IV We learn that the Canal Commis | sioners have directed passengers to be car | ried over the State road hereafter at the I uniform rate of 3 cents per niile. Should i the Harrisburg and Lancaster Company : conic into this arrangement, the fare from 1 Lcwistown to Philadelphia will shortly be ! 85, and from MeVeytown 85,37. I lr~ XVc have heard it mentioned that : Mr. MOWRY, of the Engineer Corps sta tioned here for a year or two, has been ; appointed Supervisor of the Pennsylvania , Railroad, in place of Mr. Heisley, deceased. This is an excellent appointment, Mr. M. having always been noted for a careful and attentive discharge of his duties. JAIL BURNT —Loss OF LIFE !—The jail of Adams county, Pa., was entirely con sumed by lire on Monday. Two human lives were lost by the catastrophe—lsaac Mussulman and John Toner, both insane, and confined for safe keeping. State Treasurer's Report. The .State Treasurer, in his able report, j adverts to the foreign notes in circulation in this State, and particularly through this region, as follows, lie says— The inquiry may be very properly made— i 'Why is this currency here?' Because the j State refuses to furnish a better. The neglect of the legislature to provide a currency adequate to the wants of business, invites it among us; hence the losses are incurred by our own citi j zens, while those of other States pocket the re | suiting profits. By her policy, the Common- I wealth secures to sister states a monopoly of the banking business, denying her citizens a share in its benefits. This policy drives from us cap | ital—other states invite its investment. The banking capital of Pennsylvania has been reduced, within the space of a few years, from I near sixty millions of dollars to about seventeen millions. In addition, the discriminations a j gainst revenue by the onerous tax levied on money at interest has driven away millions more, which, when here, entered inio business in the form of permanent loans. And while this state of things exists in Penn- ! I svlvania, the banking capital of adjoining States has been increased. The effect of this great diminution inourcap tal caused a demand for money. The energies of a people proverbial for their thrift and indus j try, long accustomed to the excitement and ac tivity $f business, could not remain dormant for ; such a cause. Money, in some form, as the rep resentative of bulky values, and as tke medium of exchange—without which business stagnates and trade languishes—they must have; and as the Genera! Assembly, in this emergency, failed j to provide a currency equal to the wants of bus ; iness, they very naturally sought relief by im j porting the currency authorized by other gov ernments. i Bank paper, governed by the laws of trade, flows where it is most wanted, for there the best j price is p;id. Pennsylvania for some years has wanted and still continues to demand it. And in consequenee, the paper currency of our sister States and the (,'anadas, is not only tolerated but i invited here to supply the demands of enterprise ! and the wants of trade. To stop the millions of small notes, that from this cause, have flown in : upon us, is impossible. As well may you at : tempt to stop, on the borders of the State, by le gislative enactment, the air that, aw-eeping over our mountains and through our valley s, imparts health and .vigor to all, as to stop the paper circulation of other Stales, invited and retained here by the demands of business. Such is the j force of public opinion upon this subject, that your law officers have not the hardihood to at tempt the enforcement of prohibitory statutes. I Mr. Ball adverts strongly to the facts, that I Massachusetts, with a population of 900,000 rouls, has a healthy banking capital, carefully ! guarded, of j.;i3,25*>,000 ; but that Pennsylvania, with a population 2,i>00,000 souls, has a banking ' capital of only >17.700,000. Comment, he snys | is unnecessary—that the millions of paper, i | sued by other States, and circulated in this, to j sustain our industry, is sufficient comment ol it l self. Why, he ash's, hesitate longer to invite the return of capital? Its presence is admitted by all to be essential, i every point of view, to the prosperity of the Stale, and for invigorating the energies and enterprise of the people. Could ; these foreign bank notes be driven from among ' us, it would be a desirable consummation truly, if'you sub&titue a better currency in their stead.

In the Senate on the 3d, Mr. Cunning ham read in place a bill to incorporate the Presbyterian Church, in Newton Hamilton. •S. \V.

Kissel, loco, Assistant; John L. Morris, loco, Doorkeeper ; Geo. W. Palmer, loco, Assistant; Andrew Young, whig, Messenger; Samuel Peter son, loco, Assistant. This medley of offi cers was produced by the vote of the Speaker. Win. P. Brady was subsequent- It retained as an assistant Sergeant-at-Arms. A message was received from Gov. Johnston, nominating Joseph Buffington, to be president judge of the 18th judicial district, composed of the counties of Ve nango, Jefferson, ('larion, Elk and Forrest; Robert Woodward, to be an associate judge of the county of Armstrong : William Leech, to he an associate judge of the coun ty of Mercer ; Jacob Bear, to be an asso ciate judge of the county of Lawrence; Jere Adams, to be an associate judge of the county of Bradford; and Edmond Taylor, to he an associate judge of the county of Luzerne. Another message returning with the Ex ecutive veto, the bill entitled 4 An act to authorize certain persons named therein, to improve the navigation of the Susque hanna river, between the Nanticoke dam and the New York State line, and giving to them the right to navigate the same with steamboats. To lay out a State road from Cannonsburg in Washington county, to a certain point in Fayette county, and "to establish telegraphic communications on the Columbia railroad.' Another informing the Senate that dur ing the recess, the Executive signature had been affixed to a number of bills passed tit the last session of the General Assembly*. Another enclosing a rerios of resolu tions upon the subject of slavery, adopted bf the Legislature of Vermont, and a re port made by a committee of the same Legislature, relative to the establishment of a Bureau of Agriculture in the depart ment of the interior at Washington. In the House, on the 3d. the Clerk an nounced that he had appointed Messrs. A. S. Brewster, \\ . L. Gray, and W. J. Allison, as Transcribers. Mr. Gibbone*. read in place a bill re lating to a tavern license in Mifflin county, which bill was taken up and passed final reading. In the Senate, on the 4th, the Speaker announced the standing committees. Like the officers, they are divided in politics. Mr. Cunningham is Chairman of the Com mittee on Agriculture and Domestic Man ufactures, and is on the committees on Militia, \ ice and Immorality, and Private Claims for Damages. During the session Mr. Packer arose and delivered himself of an abusive speech because the Speaker had not placed him at the head of the Apportionment Committee. Mr. Crabb and others very properly con tended that the Senator from Lycoming had no right by a party move to have his name placed at the head of that committee, where he might frame districts to suit him self. In the House, Mr. Gibboney was ap pointed on the Committees of Agriculture, and Roads and Bridges. In the Senate, on the sth, a paper from the Governor was read, in which he in formed the Senate that no less than 23 hills lor divorce had become laws during the last session, and urging a more rigid scrutiny in regard to the same, thereby saving the time of the Commonwealth, and guarding the morals of the people. lit the House on the 7th, Mr. Gibboney presented a petition for a law to prevent the use of the public works on the Sabbath. In the Senate on the Bth.
