FOVR YEARS ha\e now rolled away since
the Gazette passed into our hands, during
which time we have left little undone to
make it an interesting sheet to the politician
.is well as general reader. We have studi
ouslv and earnestly supported those meas
ures which we consider most conducive to
the welfare of our country, both present
and future, and at all times endeavored to
lay before our readers the latest and most
important intelligence. Faultfinders there
have been, but generally speaking they
have but afforded evidence of the correct
ness of our course —lor were all to give us
an unqualified approval, we should strong
ly suspect that there was a want of inde
pendence in our writings and selections
not becoming an editor. We believe then
that wc have done our duty, both to our
readers and the whig party ; and the ques
tion next arises whether the party has
done its duty to us ? If a bare subsist
ence, coupled at times with no little anxi
ety, is considered a remuneration for our
services, it may be answered in the affirm
ative—for four years of almost incessant
labor has left us pretty much in the same
condition as to pecuniary matters we were
in u hen wc purchased the establishment,
if v e except a number of accounts on our
books, where, to judge from the indiffer
ence manifested by those who contracted
them, they are likely to stay. Having had
patience enougli with this class in solicit
ing payment, we shall shortly try what
virtue there is in a magistrate's summons,
and see whether we cannot recover at least
enough to pay for some materials we shall
need before long.
A Lnrfp number of our present list arp
punctual enough in their payments, and
"this '-lass could do much for our interests
by procuring good subscribers when oppor
tunities offer, lew farmers, mechanics or
business men, who have been subscribers,
but have found the Gazette vastly prefera
ble to a citv weekly, and as the turmoil of
the election is now over, every attention
will again he paid to the news of the day,

Susquehanna, to Middletown, and thence
To llarrisburg, and so over the Central

( ff"' The result of the election is a theme
1 of speculation iij almost every paper that
we open—one editor congratulating hiin
; sell that his county or district has done
\VP2I, another henries the wliigs for being
lazy and indifferent, a third thanks his
stars that things are no worse, and a fourth
avows his -determination to juck his flint
i and try it again !" On the other hand,
the loeofoous Fe-congratulating themselves
I at the prospects before them, though here
- and there, where things did not work ex-
J ' aclly as they wished, a little growling i 6
exhibited, and in one case an exposure of
the modus operandi made. In Hunting
don, it appears from the Globe's manifesto
or explanation, that the locofocos had sold
themselves, body and breeches, to John
Whittaker—the conditions being that they
were to elect Whittaker Sheriff, and the j
latter to make votes for Parker for Con- !
. gress. Everything went on smoothly for
a time, the volunteers having been induced
i to withdraw, and the track cleared, when i
somewhat unfortunately for the wirework- j
ers, Robert Speer announced himself as a
candidate, and would not be bought off nor
scared off, the result of which was that j
the leaders could not consummate their i
bargain with Whittaker. A similar game .
was also played in Blair county, the whig j
volunteer candidates trading off congres
sional votes, and although they succeeded I
in defeating Dr. McCulloeh, we are pleased
to say that not a single one of these re
creants to their principles and professions ;
succeeded in obtaining office either in
Huntingdon or Blair counties, and are thus
justly rewarded for their treachery.
Is"* The Excursion Party from Phila
delphia, accompanied by Johnson's Brass
Band, arrived at Lewistown last evening,
and took up their quarters at the different
hotels, where ample provision had been
made for their reception. This morning
they proceed to Hollidaysburg, returning
in the afternoon. The Brass Band per
formed several pieces in front of the Na-
tional, during last evening, which were
listened to with much delight by oui citi
zens.
HT We kept back our paper last week
for the official returns, and this week wc
issue it somewhat earlier than usual, in
tending to make a flying visit to the good
folks at Hollidaysburg to-day.

A telegraphic despatch under date of Cin
cinnati, October 16, says that the official vote

The Republic announces that the Hon.
Edward Joy Morris, Charge d 1 Affaires to
Naple*, has succeeded in procuring from
the Neapolitan Government the payment
of the long-contested claim of Boril A Co.,
i of Philadelphia, amounting to eight thou
i sand ducats. This claim, now conclusive
-1 ly settled by the energy of Mr. M., has
been live years under discussion.
TE BRITISH PROTECTORATE. —The
National Intelligencer states that the belief
which Mr. Squier, our late Charge to Ni
caragua, entertains that Great Britain
i made a treaty with Costa Rica, taking that
1 State under British protection, is a mis
conception. The only treaty made by
Mr. Chatfield with Costa Rica is a simple
treaty of commerce. This treaty has been
I laid before Parliament and printed.
We subjoin as full returns of the elec
tion as have come to hand up to the time
of our going to press. The House is
largely loco, while the Senate is again di
vided into HI whigs and 10 locos, with
Judge Myers, of Clarion county, an inde

The Charlcstown (Va.) Free Press, no
ticing the return of Mr. Taylor of that
place, from Harrisburg, with his fugitive
slaves, surrendered to him under the new
fugitive slave law, remarks :
• It was somewhat a novel, though gra
tijying spectacle, to see two fugitive slaves,
homeward bound, under the charge of of
ficers from a free state.*
The same paper has the following par
agraph relative to a man of the woods:
4 A man who is denominated 4 wild,' has
been seen lurking for some time past in the
neighborhood of Halltown, in this county.
He is in a state of nudity, and is quite
hairy. At the approach of any one, he
makes good his escape. llow he subsists
is a mystery, as he never enters a house.
A party of 20 persons made search for
him on Sunday last, but did not succeed in
discovering him, although the day before
he was seen.
FIRST IN THE FIELD. —The abolitionists
of Syracuse, N. Y., have made the follow
ing nominations:
For President—(ierritSmith,white mail.
For Vice President—Sam Ward, black
man.
This is what might he called 4 the mixed
ticket.'
THE POTATO ROT — A schooner arrived
here last week from Nova Scotia, with
three hundred barrels of potatoes, only
fifteen of which proved good at the time
of opening her hatches. \V hen she started,
12 (lays before, they were in perfect order,
and better potatoes, it is said, were never
seen. We learn these facts at the Custom
House.— Host on Mail.
THE LATEST COMPLIMENT.— At the
, Wes thorough (Mass.) Cattle Show, last
week, was exhibited a Holatein cow called
; 4 Jenny Lind, with a hull calf by her side
' named 4 Barnum !'
Hon. John A. Collier has been appointed Dis
trict Judge at San Francisco, and Hon. Thomas
Butler King Collector at the same place. Both
i gentlemen have accepted.
FOREICtf SEWS,
NEW YOKE, Oct- 11.— The Cunard steam
ship Europa, from Liverpool direct, anchored
at the West Spit Buoy, at thirty minutes past
nine o'clock on Thursday and came up this
morning through a dense fog.
She has experienced stormy westerly gales
during the passage, and has brought her
Liverpool Pilot with her, being unable to get
rid of him on account of the gale.
The Europa brings 110 passengers.
She sailed from Liverpool on the 28th of
September, three days after the Atlantic.
On the 29th, passed the packet ship Queen
of the West, from New York, bound into
Liverpool, and the steamer Hiberuio, which
sailed from Boston Sept. 18th.
The advance in cotton of l-Bd., reported by
the last steamer, has not been maintained,
and prices have receded to the rates at which
they stood when the Cambria sailed. The
market, however, continues active.
There has beon a rise m grain, followed,
however, by a tendency to decline.
AUSTRIA.
New Government for Hungary. —The VV ie
ner Zeitung contains the official decrees con
cerning the definitive political organization
of Hungary. At the head of the Hungarian
government is the Stadtholder, who is to re
side in Pestli, with a Vice President, Coun
cillors, Secretaries, Ac. In respect to its
administration, Hungary will be divided into
five districts. Each district will be governed
by an Obergespans Lord Lieutenant, with
the necessary employees. The Obergespans
are subjected to the Stadtholder.
HONORS TO HAVNAU.
General II ay nay dined with Baron Roths
child on the day after his arrival in Vienna.
Ho dined with the Primo Minister Schwar
zenberg on the day following, and the day
after the Emperor gave him a grand dinner.
The Emperor of Russia has sent to Gen.
llaynau, the grand cordon of the order of St.
Anne, of the first class.
A letter from Vienna, of the7tli inst., says,
that several banking houses of four principal
places of Europe, have proposed to the gov
ernment to take, on conditions very advanta
geous to it, the Hundred Million Livros of the
Lombard-Venitian loan; but subject to the
condition that the coupons shall be paid in
the place in which they are issued. The
government is disposed to make the conces
sion. An agent 01 the Messrs. Rothschild is
about to proceed to Verona to enter into
negotiations for the loan.
NAPLES AND SICILY.
The Paris Eveneuaent publishes a letter
from its Neapolitan correspondent, which
announces the outbreak of a formidable in
surrection in the two Calabrias. The Nea
riolitan governmett was greatly alarmed and
iad ordered a frigate to proceed to Cotrone,
a port of Ultra Calabria and bombard the
city. Three provinces of Calabria appear to
be acting in concert in this insurrection. At
Xieastro, the insurgents had a skirmish with
the garrison of the town, in which the latter
were defeated, and twenty-three gent d'armct
of the Municipal Guard, the Judge and some
other government employees were shot. In
this city alone the military authorities had
issued orders for the seizure of upwards of
300 persons, dead or alive. According to the
latest accounts, the insurrection was spread
ing.
RUSSIA.
The Augsburgh Gazette says that there is
at present a species of political Congress at
Warsaw, at which the Austrian and Russian
diplomatists are engaged. The Emperor
himself is expected to attend it. The Con
gress is occupied in the consideration of the
i affairs of Germany and Poland. Ou the first
i of January, 1851—that is, on the 25th anni
versary of the accession of the Emperor
Nicholas, Poland will be transformed into a
certain number of Russian governments.
GERMANY.
Matters in Germany remain where they
were. The battle of Sehleswig has not been
fought, and the Hessians are disposed to do
without their fugitive sovereign. All was
quiet in Hesse Cassel.
The governments of Hanover and Wirtem
burg were raising 10,0OU men to be used by
the elector in case of emergency.
Austria and Prussia are polite but suspi
cious, and one may safely predict anything
of their dark diplomacy; for the result may
discover itself in u century —apparently not
I sooner.
The Austrian Council, sitting at Frank
fort, have declared that the refusal of the
llessian l>iet to grant the supplies is illegal.
In the meantime, the armies of Bavaria,
Hanover and Prussia, approach the Hessian
frontier. Hesse Cassel, however remains
perfectly nuiet.
Letters trom Hanover of the 10th inst., au- ;
nounce the death of the Councillor of State, :
Count Faleke.
Advices from Cuxhavon, state that the !
I>aiies were blockading the river Eyder, and
had expelled forty vessels of various nations, i
roßTrcxL.
Accounts from Lisbon havo been received
to the 13th of Sept. The outbreak of a mili
tary revolution against the domination of
Costa was mentioned. Cabral was appre
hended. The Queen had ordered him to re
turn immediately to Lisbon. It was rumored
that Silva, Cabral and the Duke of Terceria
would enter the Ministry.
It has been arranged to refer to the arbi
tration of the President of the, French Repub
lic, the differences between Portugal and the
United States, on the subject of tlio brig
General Armstrong.
Oporto letters of the 19th, state that a
heavy rain had set in on that day, and fears
wore entertained for the vintage.
tC5~The steamer America arrived at Halifax
on Tuesday with one week's later intelligence,
but the news is unimportant. The Holstciners
have recommenced operations against the Danes,
and gained some trifling advantages. Cotton
was without muoh animation, and wheat and
flour had declined slightly.
A SCENE. — On Saturday morning, the
case of Henry Myler, indicted for fraudu
lently obtaining a land warrant, was con
cluded in Baltimore, when the jury ren
dered a verdict of guilty. Upon the ren
dition of the verdict, the prisoner drew a
knife and stabbed himself twice in the
breast. The wounds did not produce
death.
HEAVY MAIL ROBBERY.— The pouches
containing the great Southern mail were
stolen from the car as it was about leaving
Philadelphia on the night of Saturday last,
and were found on the following morning,
in the neighborhood of Grey's Ferry,
completely rifled of their most valuahle
contents, including a large amount of money,
jewelry, &c. A reward of 8100Q is of
fered for the detection of the robbers.

DETROIT, Oct. B. —A negro was arrested here
to-day, under the new fugitive slave law, which
has created great excitement. Hundreds ol
negroes are armed, threatening to rescue the
prisoner, whose examination takes place to
morrow. The prisoner was conducted from the
jail to the Court by three companies of soldiers,
with loaded muskets. No rescue, however,
was attempted by the assembled negroes. Bricks
were thrown at the Marshal's carriage. The
Erisoner was committed for a week for I'M U;er
earing.
ST. LOCIS, Oct. 7th—A letter received from
Fort Laramie, dated August 26th, says that the
tide of emigration had almost ceased. The
Mormon emigration for4his year is estimated at
5000. The register for the past season exhibits
the following as having crossed the plains :
! Emigrants, 39,500 men; do. 2,500 women ; do
600 children; horses, 23,000 ; mules, 8000 ; ox
en, 36,000; cows, 7000; wagons, 9000. The
deaths en route were 316, though it is estimated
that full one-fifth of the emigrants did not regis
ter their names.

This creature is a newly discovered link oc
twetii the brute and human species, and it '*
difficult to determine to which it belongs.
This singular being was taken after a hunt
of several days, and brought to this country,
and is the only one ever taken-alive.
in presenting this wonderful creature to tu**
public the proprietor wishes it distinctly under
stood that he challenges either Continent tu
produce a greater Naiural Curiosity.
It has been exhibited for nearly five month?,
and thousands have visited it, including Natur
alists, Medical men, and all who take an in
terest in nature and her wonderful works, pro
nounce her the most surprising specimen of
Nature's mystery ever seen. It throws in a
flood of light on Naturtl History, and fills UP
the darkest spot, (the connection between the
Brute and Human,} and thus combines Insiruc
tion with Amusement,
Its gait is erect, having the Negro features,
with protruding mouth, bald head, with hair
five inches long on its arms. The specie®
grow to the height of five and a half to six feeh
The present specimen is perfectly docile, an#
can be approached by the most timid. Asthia
is probably her only visit to this place, we woM
invite the Ladies in particular to improve the
present opportunity to visit the Wild Lady
Sumatra, who has been drawing crowd*-
houses for the last five months.
This extraordinary Exhibition will be aUeo- I
ded by choice music on the Dulcimer, Rue*
