r a E GAZETT !■:. UEVRY H. HWlttlt. The Fnion Star, in a notice of HENRY \\'. SNYDER, the Whig candidate fot Au ditor General, says he is the son of Simon Snvder, whose administration as Governor of Pennsylvania will ever reflect honor upon his name, and cause his memory to he cherished by all those who love and value the prosperity of the Old Keystone State. We need not refer our German friends, says the Star, to the conduct of Simon Snyder while Governor. Thev already know it. They know him to have been a prudent, sound and practical statesman, and our good old Common wealth prospered greatly during his admin istration. His son, Henry W. Snyder, our candidate for Auditor General, has in herited his father's integrity and sound judgement. It is altogether superfluous lor us to teH the people of Fnion county that Mr. Snyder is eminently qualified to till this oflice. But we would send it abroad throughout the Commonwealth as the united voice oi Union county, that we who know him, can and do bear testimony of his honesty, integrity and ability. As an accountant Mr. Snyder has few if any superiors. He possesses excellent busi ness habits, an obliging disposition, an en larged experience, and every other qualiti calion requisite to make a popular, faithful and competent officer. Mr. Snyder being of German descent has a thorough knowl edge of that language, and is identified with the interests and feelings of our Ger man population. His name will be a tower of strength in the German portions of our State ; and wherever the friends and admirers of Old Simon Snyder live, Henry AY. Snyder, we predict, will re ceive a strong vote. From the llarrisbttrg Intelligencer Organization—lts Yecessity and Importance to tbe Whig Party. We desire to impress upon the Whigs of Pennsylvania the great importance of early and efficient organization in the pres ent campaign, and with this view, invite their attention to the following resolution passed by the late State Convention : 6. Resolved, That, with a view to sustain the Executive by the association of men—men of high character, sound political opinions, and large experience, we have this day nominated JOSHUA DUNCAN, JOSEPH HENDERSON, and HEN RI W. SNIDER ; surrounded by such men, and no longer embarrassed by adverse associations, the Whig Governor can, without fear or difficulty, carry into successful execution all measures ne cessary for the public good ; for their election, and with it, the election of a Legislative majori ty, so important in every respect, we invoke ac tivity, harmony and fidelity in the Whig rank 3, from one end of the State to the other. This resolution inculcates the proper spirit, and if properly responded to by the Whigs throughout the Commonwealth, will be attended with results to gladden every patriotic Whig heart in the land. Pennsylvania is ever regarded as the great political battle ground of the nation, and if she prove herself true to the M hig faith, as she will if the Whigs do their duty manfully as they did in 1848, her exam ple will inspire the Whigs of the whole country with renewed zeal and energy in the good cause. Apart from this partizan view, however, the importance to the in terests of the Commonwealth, of electing " men of character, sound political opin ions, and large experience"—such men as are presented on the Whig ticket—as as sociates with the Executive in the admin istration of the public affairs, cannot be over-rated. It is impossible for the Gov ernor to carry into successful execution <-ueh measures as are necessary for the public good, without the hearty co-opera tion of the co-ordinate branches ol the government. Hence the election of a Whig Legislature, and a Whig Canal Com missioner and Auditor General, are essen tial requisites to insure the prosperity and onward march of the Commonwealth to that heighth of power and glory to which she is one day destined to arrive, and to which her great resources and importance entitles her. She can only arrive at this point ol em inence, however, through the successful operation of Whig principles and Whig measures, and they can only be secured by the election of Whig men to administer her public affairs. The Whigs have proved themselves the majority P art y ' n the State in all contests in which the full strength of both parties was polled. Thus :n the contest of 1848, both for Governor and President, our opponents were thor oughly united, and polled the largest vote they ever had in the State, yet wp beat them at both elections. This gratifying result wan produced by the zeal and activi ty of our Whig friends in getting our vote to the polls, and proves incontestibly, that whenever the proper efforts are made we can and will be successful. Shall these efforts for success in the pending cam paign be made now ? We hope so, and tru-t that every leading Whig in the State, in view of the importance of the contest, will buckle on his armor and prepare for the light. We cannot begin too soon, and cannot too earnestly engage in the work, ■'ind therefore, in the language ol the reso lution of the State Convention, " w in voke \CTIVITV, HARMONY and FI DELITY in the Whig ranks, j rota one *od of the Slate to the other.

The new comet is now faintly visible to the naked eye-an the constellation of Ursa M inor. Its northern declination being 72°, and its right ascension 10b. 2Uin. It will continue to approach the earth until the middle of July, when it will attain its mini mum distance from us of about thirty-eight millions of miles, or less than one-half its present distance. As it is also approaching the sun, it will become five or six times brighter than it now is. On the 20th June its geocentric position will be between the stars Alpha and lota Praconis. On the 1 Ith of July it will be seen a few degrees to the west of the bright star Arclurus, in the constellation Bootes.— Moving rapidly to the south, it will pass near the star Spiea Virpinis on the of July, and will soon alter descend below the southern horizon. As it is already fast increasing in bright ness, it will probably he distinctly visible to the naked eye during the middle of July. It is a singular fact, that the first Euro pean observations of this comet were re presented by elements which made the probability of a collision with our planet a matter of serious apprehension.— Jioston Traveller. Strange Catholic Ceremonies in Italy. At Messina, in the celebration of the assumption of the Madonna, a huge car is introduced, forty feet high, supported by iron machinery, and very fancifully deco rated. This car is drawn through the streets for three days. The base repre sents a tomb occupied by a choir chanting over the body of the Madonna. The twelve apostles are in attendance, person ated by youths of good families. Above them is a circle that revolves horizontally, with children attached to it representing angels under a lage Sun and Moon that turn vertically, with six infants as cherubim suspended at the ends of the principal rays. The infants and children suffer ex ceedingly in sustaining the parts assigned them, and when taken down, are, not un frequently, half dead from fright and fa tigue. As to the girl who personates the Madonna. 1 was informed that it was al ways deemed prudent to place her under the custody of the police for some davs afterward to save her from the infatuation of the lower orders, who would, unless thus restrained, tear the hair off her head for relics.

Lewistown, Jupe 08, I°so tf WARM SPRINGS, PERRY COX72JTY, PA fTHE undersigned begs leave to inform the public, that *- lie has recently purchased the Warm Springs, in Perry county, Pa , and has improved and refurnished the buildings for the entertainment of visiters, in a style j calculated to ensure comfort and convenience to all w ho : may feel disposed to patronize the establishment. These springs are situated on the banks of and empty 1 into Sherman's rrepk, a stream assoc'ated with the thrill- I ing scenes between tlie early settlers of that part of : Pennsylvania and :he aborigines, whose hunting grounds lay on Us margin. They are il miles from Carlisle, j (through which the Cumberland Valley Railroad passes from Chambersburg to ilarnsburg,) from win-h place visiters can at all times procure excellent conveyances. Those also from the east, wishing to reach the springs hy j the Central Railroad, ran tin so by taking passage to the Dunratinon Iron Works, (13 miles di-ruit from the , springs) where coaches are constantly in readiness to ! convey them thither; ami those coming from the west j on the same road, can at all times obtain easy conveyan ces at the Railroad Hotel at Newport, which is but a few j miles distant from the springs. The qualities of the water at these sprint:? are most extraordinary indeed for the speedy and permanent care of SCHUVULA, TETTFJt, Eruptions of the Skin, and in fart every specie,* "of Cutaneous t.iseases. lie has hundreds of certificates, showing the wonderful cures effected by using this water internally, and by bathing in it, obtained as well from strangers as from those residing in the immediate neighborhood of the springs, who have not only experienced the infallible effica y of the water themselves, but witnessed the same upon others. l*rof. JAMES C. BOOTH has ANALYZED the waters, and fonnd them to contain 9 2 grains of sol d matter in the galiou, I which is composed as follows: Carbonate of lone, - - - " C6~ " magnesia, - - 1.938 Alkaline salts,rhi- ff. chlorides, with a por tion of sulphate, - - 1 093 : Siiicia ..... 0.C05 Organic matter, - - "J 897 j y There are also at the same place half a dozen ol other I springs, of different descriptions, among which is one of j sulphur and one of cold water. j It may not be improper to state why a knowledge of the j extraordinary medical qualities of these springs has not ' been more extensively known than is indicated by the I certificates of those only who have resided in their im- I mediate neighborhood. Years ago the property fell into '• the hands of a number f heirs, who were indisposed to i undertake the responsibility of makine it a place of puh ! lie entertainment —probably because thepatronage of the I public would not have justified the undertaking, aa at j that time (before the spirit of improvement had rend -red ! distant and difficult points of sjieedy and cheap access,) I its location was out of the way, and the roads to it rough | and almost impassable. At the death of Mr. Kennedy, : it fell into the hands of his Ireirs. neither of whom semi j ed disposed to lake hold of it, but leased a to tenants, more for the cultivation of the land tiian a regard to the i use of the water. It was finally rented to Mr. Hippie, 1 (now proprietor of a large hotel in Tremont. Pa.) who made arrangements to accommodate the public, and dur ing his term many invalids availed themselves of this opportunity to visit ami test its medical qualities Sir. Hippie however retired in a short time, and tile property again fell into the hands of the heirs, and remained so until proceedings were instituted in the Orphans' Court for its sale, it was ordered to be sold, and the subscri ber became the purchaser- It will thus be seen that with the exception of the short time it was held by Mr. Hip pie, no efforts were made to bring it into notice. The country round the springs and neighborhood is di versified by cultivation and beautifully wild and pictu resque scenery, abounding in game, while the stream passing through the property affords fine fishing. Every attention will be paid to the comfort and convenience of guests, and the charges so moderate, that all may avail ' themselves of the beuefits of the Water. May 31 —St 11. H. ETTER.
