HENRY CI.AY. —Some apprehensions
have been entertained respecting Mr. ( iay's
health, but at last accounts he was able to
be out, though very weak. The great
statesman is evidently bending beneath the
weight of years and a life of public ser
vice. We learn by yesterday's mail that
lie has tendered his resignation as United
•States Senator to the Legislature of Ken
tucky.
DAVID ROACH, for a number of years a

doubt prove a valuable accession to any
community in which he may locate him
self there.
Breadstuffs' Trade.
The New York Post speculates as fol
lows on the prospect of shipments to Eu
rope. We could heartily wish that its an
ticipations may be realized, though we see
but little prospect of such a rise as will
bring wheat in the country markets to SI
per bushel, which would be a fair rate all
round. That paper savs :
' Now that the Eric C.trial is rlosed, it be
comes of importance to ascertain the stock of
Hour arid grain in this market. (Jn the Ist of
September we had a stock larger by 150,000
bbis. than at the same date in 1850. At the
present time the stock of western canal and
southern flour is 410,000 bbls.
'The exports this season have been in great
proportion of southern flour, therefore the -lock
of western flour is greater than those suppose
who deduct all the exports from the receipts of
western and Canadian tlour on!v. The citv and
neighboring mills have also manufactured an un
usual quantity of flour, a .treat p ar t n f which
lias been exported. The city production is not
included in the published receipts, winch may
mislead many calculators.
' From the last advices from F.utope, we are
led to expect a continued rise in the market for
wheat and flour. The consumption'in Frig land
is steadily gaining on the supply. The storks
are light, as there is a diminishing continental
supply.
' The harvest on the continent has not proved
*=o abundant, and the frost will prevent supplies
from the lialtic. Hence, it is anticipated that
the Engli>h market will gradually rise to that
point at which it will be profitable to ship a large
quantity of our surplus produce; which if riot
m this city can easily be obtained by our rail
road facilities. There is reason for confidence
jn the future state of the market.'

Koteuth—lhc object of Ms visit*
This remarkable and eloquent man con
tinues to engross public attention, and is
using his extensive knowledge lo iurther
the object of his mission. His main tie
sire appears to be to effect the renunciation
of the Washingtonian policy of non-inter
ference in the affairs of Europe, and he
fives us lectures on our institutions as
readily as our best statesmen ! But though
the great Magyar reasons most plausibly,
and appeals in the most stirring notes o!
eloquence for a revers 1 of our p licy, he
will hardly persuade the American people ,
to rush into the vortex of European allairs,
and into certain war —for such would in
evitably be the result. They may, lor a ,
time, be carried away with his eloquence,
but when the time arrives for a cool and
dispassionate decision, we believe that de
cision will be in favor of the salutary re- :
commendations of our forefathers.
The visit of lvossuth to this country,
savs the Baltimore American, on a politi
cal mission to seek, material aid and opera- I
live sympathy in behalf of Hungary, in
view of another struggle there for a lle
public, renders a review of the past three
years of European history very instructive
and important to be now regarded. We
refer to his in its political aspect, and as j
connected with his avowed object of ob
taining from the Government of the United
States a recognition of the independence of
Hungary, and the adoption of the princi
ple of intervention in behalf of Hungary,
if necessary, to prevent the intervention
,of Russia against iter. Whatever individ.
ual citizens may think proper to do in the
wav of making up a loan to be advanced
in aid of the cause he advocates—that is
an entirely different thing from the point
just referred to. He and his Hungarians
will make, no doubt, a gallant strugg'e,
and all who may be moved by a generous
impulse to contribute in their aid may do
; so, if they can. in the full belief that ihe\
are rendering service to the cause of free
dom. To the Government of the United
States, however, the question presents itself
• in the aspect of a solicitation to interpose
to preserve the balance of power in Eu
rope, and to take now and hereafter an ac
tive part in the adjustment of European
disputes. To yield to such a solicitation
we hold to be totally out of the question,
for before a step of this character could be
taken both our government and people
must deliberately repudiate the precepts
and policy of WASHINGTON, and the uni
! forinly wise course in this respect which
has characterised the United States from
their existence down to the present day.
The Tariff Movement.
The locofocos of Schuylkill county re
cently held a " tarilf meeting" at which,
among others, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted :
Resolved, That the great failing off in the pro
duction of iron in the United States within the
past few year-, and the great increase of the
imported article where our own country pos
sesses in unequaled abundance, side by side, al!
the raw materials necessary for its production,
shows that branch of industry to he in -uch a de
pressed condition, that if not relieved, both the
Government and the people must be dependent
upon foreign countries tor the supply of this
great necessary of a defensive government and
civilized life, while heavy drains must be made
upon the coin of the country to pay for the
same, and all other branches of industry thereby
atl'ected.
Resolved, That it is the bounden duty of the
Government to encourage, the home production
of iron for a variety of reasons, some of which
are peculiar to this article, and that among them
ate the following :
That iron is an article indispensable for na
tional defence —for the manufacture and con
struction of cannon—steam vessels of war, Ac.,
Ac.
That the value of iron is nearly all made up
by labor—of manly, invigorating, health-giving
labor.
That its great utility—and extended use not
only makes it a necessity of life, but its vaiue is
so great that if paid lor by our coin or by our
home products (not increased but diminished by
its foreign productions i all branches of industry
will suffer from the drain on our capital the pay- i
ment for the imported article must occasion.
If some "good democrat," educated in
the faith since 18-1-1, were to meet with
such resolutions, accompanied by a state
ment that thov were passed unanimously
■ ,
by a democratic meeting, he would be very
apt to pronounce them whig doctrine out
and out. Certain it is, that similar ones
can be found in the proceedings of almost
every whig meeting that has been held in
this ."State for the last ten years.

A report has been in circulation here '
lor several days that a man was killed by
a bear in the Seven Mountains (between
Lewistown and Bellefonte) a few weeks
ago. The story runs that the bear was
wounded by a ritle ball, and turned on his
pursuer.
The Treason Trial—Railway's Acquittal.
The treason trial at Philadelphia was
brought to a close on Thursday of last
o •>
week, and resulted in the acquittal of;
Hanway—the jury having been out but
fifteen minutes. The proceedings are so
long that we find it impossible to make
anything like a synopsis either of the tes
timony or speeches. Judge drier, in ids
charge, quoted from different authorities to
show that
4 A combination or conspiracy to levy war
against the United States, is not treason unless
combined with an attempt to carry such com
bination or conspiracy into execution ; some
actual force or violence must be used in pur- !
suance of such design to levy war; but it is
altogether immaterial whether the force used is
sufficient to effectuate the object; any force,
connected with the intention, will constitute the
crime of levying war.'
The Judge then continued:
°
In -Mitchell's case, it was decided that to re
sist or prevent, by armed force, the execution of
a particular statute of the United States, is a
levying war against the United States, and con
sequently treason within the true meaning of the
'Constitution.'
And in Fries' case, 1 that an insurrection or
rising of any body of people within the U.
: States, to attain by force or violence any object
of a great public nature, or of public, national and
' general concern, is a levying war against tiie
i United States.'
' That any insurrection to resist or prevent,
by force or violence, the execution of any stat
ute of tiie United States, under any pretence of
, its being unequal, burthensome, oppressive or
| unconstitutional, is a levying of war against tiie
j United States, within the Constitution.'
And again—' If the intention be to prevent by
force of arms, the execution of any act of Con
gress altogether, any forcible opposition calcu
| !,.ted to carry that intention into effect, is
levying war against the I uittJ States.'—U. S.
v. lioxie, 1 Fame, "2Go.
But the resistance, of the execution of a law
; of the I nited States accompanied with any dc
! gree of lorce if lor a private purpose, is not trea
' son. To constitute that offence the object of
' the resistance must be of a public and general
nature.
i do not think it necessary to quote further
from the decisions of my predecessors. It will
j sul'.ice to sa\ that the late charge of my brother
Kane to the Grand Jury, in the Circuit Court,
i contains what 1 believe to be a correct state
ment of the decisions on this subject, and that 1
: fully concur in the doctrines stated, and the
< sentiments expressed therein.
In the application of these principles of con
struction to the case before us, the jury will ob
serve, that the ' levying of war' against the U.
j States is not necessarily to be judged ol alone
I by the number or array of troops—but there
' must be a conspiracy to resist by force, and an
! actual resistance by force of arms are intimated
! by numbers. This conspiracy and the insur
rection connected with it must be, to effect
; something of a public nature, to overthrow the
government, or to nullify some law of the Uni
ted States totally to hinder its execution, or
compel the repeal.
A band of smugglers may be said to set the
laws at defiance and having conspired together
for that purpose, and to resist, by armed force,
the execution of the revenue law; they mav
have battles with the ofiicers of the revenue, in
which numbers may be slain on both sides, and
yet, they will not be guilty of treason, because it
is not an insurrection of a public nature, but
merely for private lucre or advantage.
A whole neighborhood of debtors may con-
spire together and resist the Sheriff and his of
ficers in executing process on their property—
they may perpetrate their resistance by force of
arms; may kill the officer and his assistants—
and yet, they will be liable only as felons, and
not as traitors. Their insurrection is of a
' private, not of a public nature, their object is
to hinder or remedy a private not a public
grievance.
A number of fugitive slaves may infest a
neighborhood, and may be encouraged by the
neighhors in combining to resist the capture of
any of their number ; they may resist with force
and arms their master or the public officer who
| may come to arrest them ; they may murder and
rob them; they are guiitv of felony and liable
to punishment, but not as traitors. Their insur
rection is for a private object, and connected
, with no public purpose.
On the rendition of the verdict of ac
; quittal, Mr. J. W. Ashmead said that the
| prisoner was also charged on four other
• bills for misdemeanor; but as he had
passed through such an ordeal, he pur
posed entering a nolle prosequi on them.
ILunvay was .subsequently taken to Lan
* easier, and held to bail in SIOOO for his
appearance at court.
The other cases have been abandoned.
A report of the trial of II ana way
will be published in a volume by King A:
Baird, Mo. 9. Sansoni street, under the su
pervision of J. J. Bobbins, editor of the
Philadelphia Legal Intelligencer. It is
said it will give a " full and complete his
tory of everything that transpired during
the trial."
SKI.K-SK TTINIJ AIM: PlNS. —Thomas E.
Shell, of this place, has recently applied
for a jiatent for a new kind of nine pins,
which require no hoy to set them up.
l'lie Scientific American has an engraving'
of this invention, from which we leatn
tiiat under Mr. Shrill's plan, the balls are
made to roll back to the player of them
selves, thus cnabing any one to indulge in
the recreation of bowling without the as
sistance of supernumeraries. Stout cords
are attached to the upper cuds of the pins,
and so arranged as to be drawn tip simul
taneously, by means of a rope which ex
tends to the other end ol the alley, where
the players are stationed. When the pins
are placed, the cords are allowed to remain
quite slack, which permits the pins to be
knocked down by the ball, just as by the
old mode. When it is desired to set up
the pins, the player turns a little crank
which raises the pins from the board to a
perpendicular position, and then lowers
them to their places. The cords attached
to the pins run through guide holes placed
directly above where the pins should stand,
so that the pins are separated and assume
their positions with the utmost exactness.

Proceedings of Congress.
The joint resolution introduced into the
Senate by Mr. Seward, was passed on
Friday last by a vote of yeas 33, nays 13.
It reads as follows :
Resolved, bij Ike Senate and Home of Representa
tives of the United Slates in Congress assembled,
That the Congress ot the United States, in the
name and in behalf of the people of the United
States, give Louis Kossutii a cordial welcome
to the Capital of the Country.
On the same day Mr. Cass's resolution
in relation to the late seizure and firing
into of the Prometheus, which was offered
some days previously, was taken up and
passed as follows :
Resolved, That the President of the United
States be requested to communicate to the Senate,
if not inconsistent with the public interest, arty
information the Executive may have received
respecting the firing into and seizure of the
American steamship Prometheus, by a British
vessel of war, in November last, near Grey town,
on the Mosquito coast, and also what measures
have been taken by the Executive to acertain the
state of the facts, and to vindicate the honor of
the country.
Oil Tuesday, Mr. Stockton, of New
Jersey, presented the memorial of numer
ous citizens of Newark and New Jersey,
setting forth that they are well acquainted
with John S. Thrasher, lately condemned
bv the authorities of Cuba. They set
forth (he reported circumstances of his un
just and of his unfair mock trial, and pray
that the Government will take such meas
ures as will prevent an American citizen
from being sent in chains for a long im
prisonment as a galley slave. He moved
that the petition lie referred to the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations, and offered
the following resolution, which was adop
ted.
Resolved, That the President be requested to
lay before the Senate, if not incompatible with
the public interests, all information he may pos
sess touching the imprisonment of Mr. John S.
Thrasher in the dungeon of the Castle in Havana,
in the island of Cuba.
.Mr. Hutler, of South Carolina, and Mr.
Foote, of .Mississippi, again took up some
time in debating the fugitive slave bill—
the former contending that it had not been
and would not lie executed by the north.
Khett, another fire-eater from South Caro
lina, also took part, and said the people he
represented, as well as himself, were se
cessionists and disunionists.
In the House, on .Monday, the Kossuth
resolution was taken up and passed by a
vote of 1 to 15.
Mr. Smith, of Alabama, rose to make a
personal explanation, with reference to the
subject embraced in the resolution, his
conduct having been assailed publicly ;
which was at first objected to, but lie was
ultimately allowed to proceed, and went
into an investigation of the conduct of
Kossuth since his arrival in Fngland and
the 1 nited .States. He occupied upwards
of an hour in reviewing the proceedings
of Kossuth, principally since his arrival in
New York, his after dinner speeches and
declarations at oilier times, attacking the
policy of the Government of the United
States in retaining its Minister in Austria,
which he considers at variance with its de
clarations in lavor of Hungary. lie de
nounced the pretended republicanism of
Europe which recognizes royalty, and in
stanced the present republic of France as
being at variance with those principles
upon which this Union is founded, and he
quoted from Kossuth's declarations during
the Hungarian struggle to show that lie
himself contemplated establishing a king
dom. In conclusion lie condemned Kos
suth's interference with religion as calcu-
lated to irritate a large portion of the pop- j
illation of the I nited States, as well as the
remarks he had made in this country that
were calculated to create warlike feelings
in the breasts of an excitable people.
Mr. Fitch, of Indiana, submitted a reso
lution, in effect rescinding a former resolu- i
tion of Congress, declaring the Mexican
war fo be unconstitutional. ,
The ayes and nays having been demand
ed, it was carried by a vote of 103 to 51.
Mr. Meade, of Virginia, moved to call
upon the President for any information he
may possess, and shall think proper to
communicate, touching any treaty between
England, France and Spain, that may have j
been entered into for the guardianship of j
Cuba, which was carried.
