Contrary to general expectation, the ex- ! hibition and fair of the MifUin County I Agricultural Society, held on Tuesday and "Wednesday last, became a scene of unit- j sual attraction. At first there appeared a , lack of interest in the matter, but as it be- j eauie known that this one or that one in- j tended to appear on the field with his j horse, cow, ox. sheep, pig, or whatever he intended to exhibit, a spirit of competition was infused among all classes, which re- : suited in a far better display than any had : anticipated. The ladies too, ever ready in j the path of duty, soon took hold of the j matter, ami by their aid rendered the j Town Hall a theme of universal admira- 1 lion for the numerous specimens of skill ! and ingenuity displayed on the tables and ; walls. A general disposition is now man- ; ifested among both farmers and mechanics ; to try their skill next year, and hence we j may look for a spirited contest for the pre- ! miums. We had intended to notice the ! exhibition at length, but as the reports of j committees have not vet been acted on and arranged by the Executive Committee, we ; must defer it until next week, when the premiums will be officially announced. ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.—A man named John Green, committed to Jail for abusing , his wife, attempted to commit suicide on Monday last by cutting his arm with a ra zor. lie is still living, but if he recovers j will probably conclude to die some other death. EIRE. — \ barn on the premises of An drew Bratton, in Bratton township, wa9 1 discovered to be on fire on Sunday morn- i ing last, and with its contents totally con- 1 suined.

It is not known how the fire originated, though sotne attribute it to the sparks of a locomotive.

Sigter, Esq., JIHS so creditably tilled the office of Sher •itl for the last three years, but as what can't be cured must he endured, we wish hirn all manner of good things in his pleasant retreat in the valley, including a wife who will aid him to enjoy them. The proceedings of Court, during the past week, possess but little interest— nearly all the eases tried being ot a petty character. TP'" It has been decided bv the Depart ment that subscribers living in a county where a newspaper is published, are enti tled to receive it free oj pontage, even though the .post office through which thev receive it may be out of the county. Sul - cnbers and postmasters will please notice. Phii.osopjiuai..—The-edstorof lite Fas ten Argus, Mr. W. 11. 11 utter, was de feated for lite Legislature in Northampton county by a Whig opponent: whereupon Mr. II briefly announces: •• The ques ton v, .is submitted to the people ol North ampton county, on Tuesday, whether they would have a good representative or a gor d editor, the coming winter, and they decid ed by a majority of 80, that they would rather have a *ooJ editor. Huzza fur our \i Jv- State Agrlfultur.il Fair. The number of strangers th3t visited Ilarrisburg last week is said to He without a parallel, and indicates that there is at I least a general interest manifested In all classes in the latest improvement in imple ments. in stock, in the various products of the soil, as well as other matters of utility and ornament. The exhibition of horses was very su perior, both of bloods and cross-breeds' and did irreat credit to the zeal and atten tion which our farmers have manifested in the improvement of this noble animal. The bull-pen attracted much attention. Durham, Devonshire, and other breeds, were fully represented by their descend ants in our own State, and it was allowed by all that they haJ no more deteriorated bv transplantation to otir soil, than those who had taken so much pains to foster and protect them. The working cattle next attracted attention ; of which there were some half dozen pairs that it would he difficult to determine which claimed the superiority. The show of mileli cows was every way worthy of the whole drove, and for the most part, were of superior shape and qualities. The supply of sheep was not very full, but they were of very superior quality. The South-downs were much admired. The display of pigs was small, being generally young, presented more for their superiority in make and thrift than for any excessive size : there not being many full grown animals of this species in the show. A very superior lot of seven pi<?s were shown, which ap peared to have all the qualities that the fatting pen demands. Among the feathered tribe on exhibition, were numerous specimens of the Shanghai breed, the largest fowl of which we have anv knowledge. These were exhibited by Andrew M. Spangler, of Lancaster county. Several specimens of the Ciiittagougs, another large breed, were shown by David Taggart, of Northumberland. William Leonard, of Philadelphia, exhibited East India fowls, black Polish do., English pheasants, golden do., Chinese ducks and white English do. All these fowls, <Lc., were in excellent condition, and show a high state of improvement. Among the articles at the Fair from this county were, cases of various birds by J. Thomas: a case of splendid artificial {low ers by Wm. Mitchell, of Dry Valley, the work of his daughter, for which a premium was awarded ; a model of a patented in vention for setting up ten pins, by Thomas E. Sluill; a patent machine for chopping girain, by .1. D. Owens. A large number of pickpockets were on the ground, and among the persons robbed was Wm. Furey, Treasurer of Centre county, who lost about J? 1000 in cash and SI3OO in school drafts, as he was getting out of the cars. Two noted thieves have been arrested at Philadelphia, charged with the crime, but the money has thus far not been recovered. A correspondent of the Ledger notices some other matters as follows ; A very large number of threshing machines arc on exhibition, and several horse power ma chines. Of '.he latter, Pelton's Tripple geared power appeared to bo the favorite. Mr. Pelton is quite a young man, hut he no doubt possesses considerable mechani cal genius. As valuable as his power machine is, he has not boon able to obtain a patent for it. lie belongs to Lancaster county. E. Whitman, of Baltimore coun ty, Md., exhibits a large number of thrash ing machines and farming tools, some of w liicli possess much merit. J esse Roberts, of Xorristow u, exhibits his patent grain and seed fan, said to possess many advan tages. J Bamborough shows his fanning 3 O C mills, which obtained the premium of the Lancaster county fair in 18*8. It is able to clean from 100 to 120 bushels per hour. .1. Montgomery, of Lancaster, shows his improved lioekaway fan; 11. \V. Smith, of Lancaster county, shows his improved patent drill, which is recommended for its strength, durability, and simplicity. O. Robinson, of Franklin county, shows Mum ma's patent corn sheller, which obtained the siher medal at the Maryland State Fair, held in Baltimore, 1850. William C'rousdale, exhibits his patent seed drill, and broadcast sower. Harkisbtrg, Oct., 51. The State Agricultural Fair has even been more crowded to-day than it was yesterday, the day fortunately proving very fine and inviting. It was in fact the great day of the festival into which all of interest connected with the fair w as crowded. The ploughing match took place at 8 1 o'clock this morning and excited no little inter est. Numerous ploughs were entered for the : contest, and the ploughmen represented various 1 portions ot the country. The ground selected was a held ot 20 acres immediately adjoining the ; grounds of the Fair, aud by its excellent soil and fine situation admirably suited the purpose.— ! , Among the ploughs entered were, several ol ! j Prouty <fc Mears, of Boston . Sinclair, of Bal- j timore ; Hall & Spears, of Pittsburg ; Pouley of : Montgomery, and Casslet, of Cumberland. The j ploughing was generally good, but the. pre- ' maims have not yet been awarded. The match ! , was witnessed by from three to four thousand ' persons, and among the. number we noticed tiov . Johnston, Ex-Governor Ritner, and Judge Jes sup, with many others who have taken the liveliest interest in all connected with the fair The ploughing match being over, the pre- j miums on stock, Ac. were awarded. The pre- j mium for the bsst Durham bull over three years j old, was awarded to James Gowen, of Phila- j delphia ; Henry Slicrbourne's fine stallion "J. j K. Polk," took the prize, as did also the fine French Merino sheep, of A. L. Bingham, 01 : Vermont. McCormick's celebrated Reaping Machine was again successful. A premium was also awarded to the double plough of Messrs. Prouty & Barnett. of Philadelphia, and indeed their whole display of implements was most at- , tractive, and it was thought by many would claim the premium as the largest display, but that after careful investigation, was awarded to E. Whitman, of Baltimore. ; The awards of premiums being concluded, | the Society repaired to the Capitol for the pur- j pose of listening to the annual address to be de- ; livered by the Hon Andrew Stevenson. Here the crowd was as dense and compact as could well be conceived. Every available position , was occupied, and we were glad to observe a large portion of ladies present. The address of | Mr. Stevenson was a truly able and eloquent j The articles from this county an'no lieed by tbe several committees as follows: To Mrs. Jameson, Miss Mitchell, and Miss Avers, of Lewistown, for a large case of ar tificial flowers in great variety, j>s 00. Five cases stuffed birds, J. Thomas, Lewis town, a fine display and v.dl prepared and mounted.—Premium $5 00. Sausage stutter, A. B. Long, Lewistown. We think it a good article. —Diploma. Sasuage stuft'er, W. Mitchell, Lewistown, ap parently very nseful. Model of a bee hive, James Robb, Lewistown, Diploma. Ten pin alley, Thomas E. Shall. The model posesses novelty and ingenuity. A Diploma of merit was awarded to A. Thompson, Reedsville, Milllin county, Pa., for a drilling machine. rr Considerable sensation lias been pro duced in this country by the publica tion of letters from Prance, which re present Kossuth, the celebrated Hunga rian, as anything but what he was supposed to he. The wi iters say that his conduct on hoard the frigate Mississippi, as well as of his followers, has been imprudent in the highest degree, and they also allege that he never intended to make the United States his home, further than to collect funds. A:e., to create disturbances in Europe. These statements want vouching, and must of course be received with allowance, in connection with this subject, it is rumored that the Austrian charge has demanded his passports, to be furnished whenever Kos suth arrives in this country. t'ff Bucks county has elected a Whig Sheriff for the first time in more than twenty years. His majority is only 87 votes, vet the largest received bv any Sheriff of that county within that period, with a single exception. ThH is a little remarkable, to sav the least. rif" The Juniata county papers contain a long list of unsettled suits on the docket of the Court of Common I'leas, and no- ' tice is given to the parties to appear on or j before the first day of December term to j show cause, Ate. A similar rule might do some good in this county. SHIP DKSTROVKD BY A WHAI.K. —Capt. j Debtors, of the whale ship Ann Alexan- ! dor, arrived at .Now A'oik in the Cherokee, j ami reports that on the 20th of August last, when in lat. 5 50 S., lon. 102 W., i while in pursuit of whales, two of his j boats that were out in pursuit were at- ! lacked by a large sperin whale, and eom plrteiv demolished. The captain prompt ly ordered out a third boat, and proceeded j to the assistance of the men. who were j thrown into the sea bv the destruction of I their boats. He succeeded in rescuing ail \ oi ihein, and reached his ship in safety. Hut the whale becoming more frantic with j rage, immediately directed his course for ! the ship, and struck her abreast of her j foremast, injuring her so badly that she iu slautlv filled. AH hands took to the boats t on the 22d, and were subsequently picked up by the ship .Nantucket, Captain (iibbs, ! ol Nantucket, and arrived at Havta, Sept. 15, whence the Captain took passage lor New York, on his way home. This is j certainly an extraordinary instance of the i capabilities of the whale, and we believe the like has occurred hut once before, which happened in thecaseof a Nantucket ship years ago. A WILL CASK, involving much property, was on trial several days last week, in Philadelphia, and occasioned much inter est. The devi/.ce was an old man of 83. and when he died, left his property to an illegitimate son, by a will made two years before his death. His nephews, as heirs at law, disputed the will, on the ground that he was of unsound mind, and after forty witnesses were examined, some ol whom deposed that he was'eccentric, and others that he believed in witchcraft; the Judge charged generally in favor of the will, and the jury took but live minutes to decide the saint' wav. CALIFORNIA (JOI.D. —The amount oi gold exported from California to the lf>th September of the present year was s<><),- 010,920; and the steamer < >regon whieh left San Francisco on the Ist October had on board about $2,200,000 —making the total export to that date about $02,2110,- 000. How much of this has gone to Europe ! The Hoston Atlas states that fur the defence of that port, ami the supply of the United States steamers and other vessels stationed there, or built, or to be built in that quarter of the country, we are told that there are deposited at the Navy Yard, at Charlestown, not less than seven hundred cannon. There was a grand procession and display at Wheeling, Va , on Friday lust, on the occa sion ot the reception of Ur. Kmkel, the Ger man patriot. Lotofofoism In a Snarl I laving accomplished the defeat ot James Campbell for Supreme Judge, because, as the Pennsylvania!) and its satellites repeat edly alleged, he was a Roman Catholic, the party has taken alarm at its own work ol proscription, and is now endeavoring to soft-soap the Catholics by inuendoes that Campbell is a greater man than ever, and some even go so far as to say that higher honors await him! It is certainly some what unfortunate for locofocoisin that they cannot charge this defeat to the whigs—as they do almost everything else that is un popular —and hence, after professing to be the special friends of Catholicism, foreign ers, Arc. it is at once seen that unless some reparation is made, there is danger of losing votes at future elections. To pre vent this dire calamity to the party of loaves 'and fishes, the papers in locations where Catholics reside in any number, "speak out in meeting" as they never spoke before. Hear, ior 'instance, the Bellefonte Democrat: " SECRETARY OF STAIE.—A number of our exchanges are out ia favor of the appointment ot the Hon. GEORGE W. WOODWARD, as Secre tary of the State under Gov. Bigler, but we understand that that gentleman is zealously- Urging the selection of Judge CAMPBELL to that high station, and his friends here are almost unanimously of the same opinion." The same paper also has the following: " THE TURNING POINT. —We copy an article under the above caption from the Philadelphia Argus and endorse most heartily all it says of the men and the means by which Judge CAMP BELL has been defeated, and the course which must be pursued towards the traitorous crew to whose disorganizing efforts it is to be attributed. The democratic, parly must make up their minds either to drive them from their ranks or drive themselves into a hopeless minority for years to come." We subjoin the article referred to from the Philadelphia Argus, with the remark that its assertion as to a bargain with the whigs bv the 14 small band of reckless and profligate" democrats is a little ridiculous and extremely nonsensical: "THE TI USING POlNT. —Three times within six years have nominees of the Democratic party in Pennsylvania been struck down by an organi zation within her own limits, and defeated bv men who have held positions as democrats and now profess to act with them. In the first in stance Geo. W. Woodward, the regular caucus nominee of the party for United States Senator, was defeated by Simon Cameron, aided by Whig and .Native vote, and a few purchaseable Dem ocrats, whom he has always in his train in the State. Subsequent to that, William J. Foster was defeated by the same men after being the choice of a large majority of the Democrats of the State for Canal Commissioner; and now Judge Campbell is the victim of the identical gang of political assassins who hang on to the skirts of the Democracy like a pestilence.— They are small in number, but enough when joined with the Whigs and aided by the columns that the pious leaders direct and the despicable hirelings circulate, to nullify the will of the ma jority and defeat their candidates. Their semi position in the party is made use of to deceive the honest position of the Democracy, who see ing their names in connection with the organi zation, naturally suppose that they are what they profess to be, and thus is the imposition consummated. At the recent election thousands of Democrats were cheated out of their votes by these creatures, who, holding places under Democratic olliccrs, took advantage of that fact to strike the ticket, and defeat a portion of ihc nominees. These are briefly the facts of one, and the j history of the causes tiiat have produced the rc- ' lated disasters to the Democratic party in the State, and we now say the TURNING POINT has come, and the leaders of that faction must be denounced and driven from the party, or else I the idea of holding delegate elections and con- | ventions will in future be a mere farce. If to- j day one man is to be sold to the opposition be cause he is in favor of a particular candidate , for the Presidency; and to-morrow another, be cause he will not promise to appoint some favoi- j ite to an office under the < 'anal Hoard, and then another becau-e he is of a different religious be- ' lief, what hope is there that a majority of the State can be kept steady in their devotion to the | party : There is none, and the great majority of the democracy should see to it that a smali hand of reckless and profligate men are not suf fered to break up the paiiy, or introduce among us that spirit of religious bigotry which we have i alwavs contemned. This is their object, and this is what they have bargained with the \\ higs to do. This is the first time in the history ot the State of Pennsylvania that so bold a scheme ! against the will and wishes of tire majority has j been attempted, and if wc do not mistake the tone and temper of the Democracy, it will be the last. They have conjured up the wind, let them beware of the tempest. We again say to the steadfast Democracy of the State, the turning point has come, and the rules and organization of the party must be vin- j dicatod, or defeat will stare us in the face for j years to come. Endurance has ceased to be a ; virtue, and the rank and tile ot the party cry ac- i tion—bold, firm and decided action. We mean 1 no blustering menaces, but the cool, prudent, well-considered movement of men who have thought on the evil to be cured and the proper remedy to be applied. In the early commence ment, in ti.at track lies the only escape from the impending ruiu that hangs upon the footsteps of the Democracy, and lower like a storin cloud over their pathway. Men will not always be content to be trampled upon by this band of trading politicians in the State, who make mer chandise of their political position as they do of their religion and their conscience. The last straw breaks the back of the overloaded beast, and this last attack upon the organization of the party has broken the bonds of the real Demo cracy of the State, and they now demand action with reference to the matter." A number of other locofoco papers also iconic in to the aid of Campbell. The Berks County Free Press says; i " The Hon. James Campbell is defeated, and Hon. Richard Coulter on the Whig ticket, elec | ted to the Supreme Bench ; he has the credit of j being the only Whig elected to any State ofliee i in this election, and the triumph, if such it may i be called, is due to treachery on the part of j certain ambitious politicians, who have on other occasions betrayed the party, and who only hang upon its skirts to destroy the very cause which gave them the only prominence they i possess." In alluding to the same subject the Lan caster Intelligencer thus expresses itself: " The defeat of Judge Campbell is the tcm ■ porary triumph of as unprincipled a faction as ever disgraced Pennsylvania. Hut James Camp bell, although he is beaten, is not prostrated.— He now occupies a prouder position than ever before the people, and the Democracy of Penn sylvania will yet elevate him over the heads of , all bis enemies, and show by their action that so good and so pure a man cannot be crushed by proscription intolerance and faction." Taken altogether, we infer that the loco foeos have defeated Campbell for Supreme Judge in order to make him Secretary of | State and Superintendent of Common Schools or something else that will soothe his wounds; but whether such a position would be more satisfactory to than the first named, we cannot say. As whigs, we must of course take whomso ever Mr. Bigler will give us, hut as there is time for reflection and as serious ob jections might be urged against his appoint ment as Secretary of State, we encline to the belief that Campbell will be appointed ■ Attorney General.
