TIIE GAZETTE. T"?* The dwelling of George Longsdorf, in this borough, was again broken into on Sunday night, and a considerable sum of money and several articles of clothing ab stracted therefrom. The money was found on Monday morning buried itl the garden. Suppose some of the city editors try the " spiritual knockers" on this mystery, and see whether they can point out lite guilty, it is a fair field to test their power. < \ MP MEETING. —A camp meeting of the .Methodist Episcopal ("liureh will com mence on Friday next at the old camp ground on Air. l'uiiuinv's place, Oliver tow nship. From California. The steamer Cherokee, with dates from 1 San Francisco to the Ist of July, arrived at New \ ork on Tuesday, bringing the immense amount of two millions, ninety four thousand, two hundred and ninety eight dollars and siuly cents in gold on freight, and four hundred thousand dol- , lars in gold, in the hands of passengers. I The Californians are getting impatient at the delay of Congress to admit them into the Union. They have good reason, and their waiting so long is only another proof of the attachment to the Union, and the value set upon it by the people, which is in striking contrast to the miserable disun ion sentiments uttered by ambitious dem agogues at Washington. San Francisco is recovering; from the late disaster, and , considerable improvements are in progress. The gold appears to be abundant, but many •v ild stories are circulated respecting new discoveries, which reports are set afloat usually for interested purposes. One in relation to great discoveries at Gold Lake drew off numbers of persons, who have lost time and money, and returned dieap- ! pointed and indignant. The rumor that the State of California intended to take possession of the custom revenues is not confirmed. Telegraphic Despatches. From our Exchange*. HALIFAX, N. S., August 6, 2. P. M The British Mail steamer Cambria arrived here at 11 o'clock this afternoon, and sailed soon afterwards for Boston. She brings dates from Liverpool to the 27th uit., and London to the 2bth. PORTCGAL.—The Portuguese havingdeclincd to accede to the demands of the American Min ister, be had demanded his passports. In anti cipation of leaving he advertised bis household furniture for sale. The Americau Squadron has sailed for Tangiers Mr. Clay, our Minis ter, intended to leave Lisbon on the 19th inst. ENGLAND.—The intelligence of the death of Gen. Taylor bad reached England, and pro duced a great sensation. The leading Journals of London, Liverpool and other places, were devoting much space in their columns to a re view of his character and exploits. A large meeting of the American citizens assembled in London upon learning of his deatb, at which the American Minister presided. Series of highly patriotic resolutions were read and unan imously adopted, expressing their sense of re gret and sympathy with the family and the country. The political news of England possesses hut little of general interest. The Ministry have again been defeated in Parliament on two of their own measures, viz : the Jewish Emancipation Bill and the new Mar riage Act. The Potatoe blight is said to have appeared both in England and Ireland. It is, however, in a mitigated form. Its effect, notwithstanding, -is beginning to be felt sensibly in the Corn mar ket, although the coming crops present the pros pect of an abundant harvest. DENMARK AND THE DlCKlES. —Hostilities have actually commenced between Denmark and the Duchies—the latter having been de clared by the former in a state of blockede. There was an action beyveeen a man-of-war and a German steamer, on the 21st, in which the former suffered very seriously and was forced to retreat. The hostile armies at last dates were on the laud and were face to lace, and bloody conflicts momentarily looked for, and as the king of Denmark intends a severe coercion and is strongly backed, there remains no doubt that a severe and bloody conflict will ensue. NEW YORK, August 7. —Johnson, Suydara, Sage & Co., heavy commission merchants of this city, have failed to a large amount. The failure has produced quite a panic in mercantile circles. The firm held a very large stock of flour BOSTON, August 7.— T. A. Elliott has been, after thirteen ballots, nommrted for Congress, as a sort of compromise candidate between two portions of the Whig party. He has asked time to consider as to the acceptance of the nomina tion. The locofocos of the Fourth District have called a convention for the purpose of nominating a candidate against Palfry. gT. Lotus, August 7.—The official returns come in slowly, though but little doubt now ex ists but that the whole Whig ticket for this city and county is elected. John F. Darby, Whig, is likewise reported to be elected to Congress from the First District. GENERAI. SCOTT.— While the schools of the First Ward were resting in the shade of the Treasury Department, on Thursday afternoon, General Scott passed along the side walk. He was instantly recognized, and the hats of the boys waved in the air, and the little girls flour ished their white handkerchiefs and bouquets. The General halted, and addressed them in terms of great kindness. He was proud to witness the appearance they presented, and he honored them, and their teachers, and the school authorities, for their laudable efforts, and hoped they would still press onward in their noble pursuits, the children were delighted with the incident, and though it may seem but a lit lie one, it will never be forgotten bv them, and the image of the gallant hero will live forever in their remembrance.— lit public. YIELD O* WHEAT IN MICHIGAN.— Mr. Ite>k er, ths enterprising and faithlul Express Agent, informs us that the formers are getting out their wheat rapidly in Southern Michigan, and 'hit the yield proves abundant. Mr. Hoag of Adrian, threihed the wheat from five acres, and it yielded 42 bushels to the acre.

HUSBAND AND WIFE KILLED BY LIGHTNING. — Mr. George Rumberger and wife, of Warriors inark township, in this county, were killed by lightning on Sunday the 28lh ult. There had, as we learn, been quite a heavy thunder storm, and when the rain had partially ceased, Mr. R. went out to open a passage for the water, which was darning up in the garden. His wife fol lowed him with his coat, and he stepped with her under a large poplar tree, to put it on, when the lightning struck the tree, and instantly killed both husband and wife. Five small chil dren are left orphans by this afflicting dispensa tion of Providence.— Huntingdon Journal. TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. —We learn from Now \ork, that a terrible disaster occurred on the New \ ork and Erie Railroad on Wednesday afternoon, Blst ult., about 1 o'clock. Asa freight train of twenty-two cars, lies vily loaded with live stock from the west, was crossing an iron, bridge over a email stream, three miles west of the mouth of Lackawaxen creek, the bridge gave way, and although the locomotive got oversafeiy, the tender and fifteen cars were precipitated into the ravine, which was sixty feet wide, and twenty-five feet deep, j The ravine was completely filled up by the wrecks of the cars and animals. The sixteenth car was refied on end, on the top of tle heap of ruins. The cars which went over are suid to heve contained about 100 head of cattle, 250 hogs and 750 sheep ; in all about 1100 ani mals. The car 3 which were going verv rap idly. were completely shattered to pieces, kill ing or wounding hundreds of the animals, and killing five men. DEATH OF COMMODORE JACOB JOKES.—Com modore Jacob Jones died in Philadelphia on Saturday last, after a lingering illness. He stood nearly at the head ol the list of post captains, two names only taking precedence. Capt. Jones, we believe, was a native of Del aware. He is one ot' the number who in the war of 1612 contributed to establish the naval renown of our country. He fought in the Wasp one of the bloodiest naval battles in our history, and captured in 45 minutes the British brig of war Frolic of superior force, and under circumstances highly unfavorable to success. For this action the Statesof Delaware, Massa chusetts, and New York, each voted him a sword in conunemoratioaof lusgallantry. which was in no wise impaired by the subsequent cap ture of bo'.h the Wueii and the Frolic, when in a crippled condition, by a British 74. Com. Jones was, bat recently, governor of the Naval Asylum, on the Schuylkill, of the command of which he had been relieved previous to his death. DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.—We ere paired to learn that a distressing accident occurred at Northumberland, on Thursday morning last. As an open wagon, drawn by lour horses, be longing to A. L. Kupp, used for carrying pas sengers from the Junction to Northumberland, since the breach in the canal, was crossing the bridge over the West Branch canal, it suddenly gave way, precipitating the wagon bottom up wards into the canal, carrying with it the pas sengers and horses. A man named Jones,from Danville, was drowned, and another person whose name we have not learned, was so ma terially injured that lie is not expected to re cover. Two of the horses were also killed. There were fourteen passengers in the wagon at the time of the accident, most of whom were more or less injured. This drcadlul casuality occurred previous to daylight, and no blame can be attached to the driver. The bridge was pronounced unsafe for some time, and, we are informed, the attention of the Su pervisor was frequently directed lo the neces sity of its immediate repair, of which he took no notice. Had the duties involved upon him been attended to properly, we would not have been called upon to record this painful occur rence.—Aliltvman. I\ec tiler's CELEBRATED COMPOUND HEMLOCK PLASTER.
