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.

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.

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. Dr.
Kibby of Csnandagus, county, from
7 acres, got an average of 47 buuhels, weigh-

1 EMNSVI-VANU IRON MANUFACTURE.— From a
tabular statement contained in the Railway
Journa l, we gather the following facts, viz :
that there are in the State of Pennsylvania 57
an hracite blast furnaces, of which 5 are un
mshed, and 2d out of blast. The actual make
J. Was 109,168 tons, while the capacity
o! the furnaces is equal to 221,400 tons. There
?> I Top? P yed in lliese ,urnace s 4,228 men, and
horses and other animals.
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.
