Foreign News.
The steamer America, front Liverpool
via of Halifax, arrived at Boston on Mon
day last.
LXG LAX I).— 1 lie political affairs are with
out striking importance, though the feeling
against the ministry is becoming stronger
every day, and public opinion lias arrived at
the coui lusion that a dissolution of Parlia
ment must inevitably take place before its
meeting. The Times of the St It. however,
states that matters are not in a very perplex
ing condition, and seemes to entertain the
opinion that the ministry may possibly suc
ceed in weathering the storm.
On the other hand, the Chronicle and other
of the Liberal papers, state that the Peelites
are uniting their strength with the friends of
Lord Palmerston, and thinks, by their com
bined efforts, the Premier will be compelled
to give way.
FROM THE CAPE OF OOOI) HOPE.—
The London journals publish later advices
from the Cape of Good Hope, stating that an
engagement had taken place between the Na
ti\e and English troops in the Kaffir country,
in which the English were again defeated with
the loss of several officers and three or four
hundred men.
Extensive operations were making on the
part of the troops to retrieve their disasters,
but they had not resulted, so far, in any sat
isfactory manner to the English. On the
contrary, in several severe skirmishes which
had followed, the Natives had been again vic
torious.
FRANCE.—Throughout France, evorv
thing_continues quiet.
The promulgation of the new constitution
has been deferred for ten days.
The President still continues to meet with
a deeided appreciation from nearly till classes
of the people.
A report was generally circulated that a
serious misunderstanding had occurred be
tween the English Ambassador, Lord Nor
manby, and Louis Napoleon, which had re
sulted in the former declaring his intention
to take a formal leave of the French Govern
ment.
This report caused a decline at the Bourse,
but affairs soon rallied, and at the du*e the
market was firm.
Active preparations for sending off flic po
litical offenders against Louis Napoleon, were
still going on, and it was said that over two
thousand persons were waiting the comple
tion of the arrangements in progress for their
embarkation to the penal colonies.
GERMANY.—The affairs of Germany are
without much alteration.
The project of Louis Napoleon to annex a
portion of Germany, was looked upon with
great distrust, and it was thought that should
he attempt to put it in execution, a general
war would follow.
In some portions of the country there are
many of discontent,
HUNGARY.—Throughout Hungary, things
wear an unquiet aspect, and a number of po
litical arrests have been made.
The following late and important news
was received by telegraph at Liverpool,
previous to the departure of the steamer.
ENGLAND. —The London Times, speak
ing of the reports relative to changes in the
Ministry, says :—We merely state the
fact as we believe it to be, that the attempts
to effect a partial improvement in the Min
istry, by the substitution of three or four
new members for others of the present
Cabinet who would retire, has not led to
any result. It seems, therefore, the deter
mination of Lord John Russell to meet
Parliament without any material alteration
in the Ministry.
The Morning Herald supposes that the
Marquis of Normanbv left Paris to be
present at the Privy Consul to be held at
Windsor on the 10th.
pROTKST AGAINST KOSSL'TH'S RETIRN
TO ENGLAND. —The Daily News copies a
statement from a Hamburg paper, announc- !
tng that the Ottomon Porte lias addressed
a note to the English (Government, protest
ing against the return of Kossuth to Eng
land, his liberation having been granted j
under the express condition that lie should
take up his residence in the United Stales. i
The re-establishment of friendly rela- j
tions between the Porte and Austria, renders
a necessary that these conditions be ful- ;
filled.
The present rates of gold at London j
leave but a small protit on importations :
from the United States.
PARIS, Friday, Jan. 9.—A conspiracy !
has just been discovered, the object of
which was to let loose the convicts at the
Hulks, at Kochefort.
Si.xtv persons have been arrested at Mont
pelier on charges connected with the late
disturbances.
It is announced that the promulgation of
the Constitution of France will take place
between the Islh and 20th inst. The
reason for the delay is to allow time tor
the publication of the more urgent of the
organic laws.
The prisoners lately confined at Ham,
consisting of Cen. Changarnier, Lamori
ciere, and their companions, have been set
at liberty on the frontier, with the injunc
tion not to return to France.
A grand review of the home garrison of
Paris was to come oil at the Chainps-de-
Mars on the 22d.
commercial intelligence is re
garded as rather unfavorable to Bread-stuffs.
A SAD I.KSSON. — The True American mentions
the appearance in Trenton of a man who has just
been released from the State Prison, after serv
ing a term of twenty years. During this time
the march of improvement has been so rapid,
that almost every vestige of all that was famil
iar to him then has been swept away. Cities
ami towns have grown up. Railroads and tele
graphs have been established ; the ocean is nav
igated by steam ; in short almost everything
which to us appears old and void of novelty,
must appear strange and wonderful to him. lie

Appoiiitnients by the t!overnor>
Secretary of Commonwealth — FRANCIS \V.
MIXJHES, of Schuylkill county.
Deputy Secretary. — E. 8. GOODRICH, of
Bedford.
Attorney General. —JAMES CAMPBELL, of
Philadelphia.
From tlie Harrislmr? American.
There is a good deal of disatisfaction ex
pressed amongst the outsiders with regard to
the appointment of the Deputy Secretary.
I hey allege that in this, almost the very tirst
act of his administration after the delivery of
his inaugural address, the Governor violates
one of the leading principles laid down in that
document. Me there makes loud professions
in favor of the compromise, yet in this act
appoints a rank Abolitionist as one of bis privy
counceilors! We do not wish to be under
stood as complaining of this matter ourself:
we give it only as an evidence of the temper
in which it is received by the Democracy
themselves. .Mr. Goodrich, we think, will
make a better officer than either of the other
candidates for the station; and besides, he is
entitled to favor, because not only of his own
efficient efforts in behalf of Gov. Bigler during
the lata campaign, but ot those of his friend
David \\ ilmol and his fellow Abolitionists in
his district.
1 he appointment of the Secretary appears
to give very general satisfaction. We do not
doubt hut he will prove an able officer.
To a certain clnjue of the Democracy, the
appointment for Attorney General is exceed
ingly unpalatable, but they must grin and bear
it, as best they can. It is not a more nauseous
dose than they have recently had to swallow
in tiie triumph of Mr. Buchanan in the elect
ions for delegates to the State Convention.
From the Ilurrisburg Telegraph.
When new men are called upon to admin
ister the government, the people look with
anxiety for first acts, as likely to indicate the
policy which will be pursued during their con
tinuance in power, Words are hut wind,
which all can me alike, like the common ele
ments of air and water. The Governor, m
his inaugural, gave a pledge of servility to the
South, which we knew at the time was only
to deceive the ignorant. Hence we looked
fur the first acts he should perform after he be
came seated in the Executive Chair; and we
were glad to say, that, they give assurance to
the friends of freedom, that the Governor re
gards with respect, the liberal sentiment of
the age. This tirst act, to which we refer,
was the appointment of Mr. Goodrich as Depu
ty Secretary of the Commonwealth. Air.
Goodrich is not only a free soiier, and the head
of a free soil paper in Bradford county, b it is
regarded as a man of high moral principle.
The dereliction of party men, and obliquity
from the paths pointed out in the Constitution
and Laws, find from him no favor. The cor
ruptions of the Canai Board last spring in ap
pointing Judge Ives, and General Bundle, to
important stations on the ptiiiiic wirkso! the
State, though their seats were still warm as
members of the Legislature, in defiance of the
Constitution and Laws, were pointed out in an
able manner in the Daily American, through
the agency of Mr. Goodrich, lie assisted Mr.
McFlierson, the editor of that paper, in the
able article, which appeared there, and would
have been an essential service to the cause of
the people, if corruption had not taken to >
strong a hold upon their minds. But he show
ed his desire to do justice to them, and we re
joice that his honesty on that occasion, has re
ceived an endorsement at tlie hands of the
Governor. Such men are wanted in these
tunes, and we are proud of our goof old Com
monwealth, when she sustains them through
her Chief Magistrate. Li this appointment,
the Governor has not only shown a desire to
reward an honest man, but he hasgiven totlie
Canal Commissioners an indication of iiis dis
approbation ot their acts. Whether the acts
of the Canal Commissioners, in the matter re
ferred to, was really unconstitutional, we do not
know; but we have every reason to believe
that such was the opinion of Mr. Goodrich, as
expressed through lus organ, for the occasion,
the "Daily American," and for his honest at
tempt. to stern the tide of corruption 111 his
own party, he deserves the reward he lias re
ceived. We honor Governor Biglt-r for thir
evidence of regard for meritorious worth.
Nor will a large part of the people of the
State, be less pleased with his appointment,
because of the free soil sentiments of Mr
Goodrich. That 6uch men should he cut
off' from the patronage of the democrat he .
party, is most unjust; and while the Govcr
nor throws out the stuff about the "Compro
mises ot tiie Constitution," lie can neutralize
its effects in this State by his real acts The
half-emasculated men who talk about pre
serving tiie constitution, will be pleased with
the Governor's talk, while the double-fisted,
who have been taught something about free
dom and liberty, will be taken by Tins npjvoint
inenL This is the way the world goes, so far
as politicians are concerned. They rope them
in from all quarters Governor Bigler. so far,
lias sfiown great skill in business. He is emi
nently a practical man.

FROZEN TO DEATH. —Mr. Ceorcc Hein
del, a citizen of \Y indsor township, was
frozen to death on Monday evening of last
week, on his return home from town, from ;
which he was hauling lime. He was
found about a mile and a half below Dal
lastown, and not much more than a mile
from his own residence, having unhitched
his horses, two of which made their way
home—the third, being blind, he had prob
ably attempted to rule or lead. When
found about midnight, search having been
made soon alter t.ie horses returned with
out him, there was no life leu in his bod v.
As lie was a man of sober and steady
habits, he must have fallen a victim to the
intense coldness of that night. He leaves
a surviving widow and children.— Vuik

JOHNSTON MCKKE, who was convicted
in the Quarter Sessions of Cambria county

FROZEN TO DEATH. —A woman nrvl two
children were found frozen to death in a snow
bank, at St. Louis,on the night of the 14th inst.
At Cincinnati, on the night of the 17th mat.,
a woman and a boy were frozen to death. On
the foilowing day two men were found nearly
frozen. One of them was so badly frost-bitten
that portions of his arms, legs, and face had
commenced peeling off.
According to the notes of the weather made
at the National Observatory at Washington, it
appears that between the 15th of December
and the 19th of the present month, both inclu
sive, there were eight fa! Is of snow, the aggre
gate depth of which was thirty-one and a
third inches. This is more than fell in the
three preceding winters together, and more
than in any winter within the last ten years.
A serious accident occurred in this city on
Saturday last. It appears that two sleighs
came HI collision in East King street,by winch
a young lady, named Catharine Laucomer, was
horribly mutilated. The shafts of one of the
sleighs penetrated her skull, dislodging one of
her eves, and otherwise seriously injuring her.
She died on Wednesday last, in consequence
of the injuries received.— Lancaster Republi

UNPLEASANT TERMINATION OF A TRIP ACROSS
THE ATLANTIC.— Among the passengers in the
S. S. Lewis were a " Mr. Dixon and lady," ac
cording to the list. Upon the arrival of the
said steamship, yesterday, officers Butinan and
Tarleton, accompanied by an English police of
ficer, went on board arid" waited on " Mr. Dix
on," as being one Mr. Edward Reynolds, a de
faulting clerk, from a house m Leeds, aud a de
serter from his wife, whose place had been
usurped during the passage by the female who
passed for his " lady." The amount of his al
leged embezzlement from his employers was
variously reported to be from $1000"to 1000/.
lie was taken to the city marshal's office, and
subsequently committed, to await further action
in hi 3 case to-day.— Boston I'ost 6th.
FINE SPORT.— The people of Fort Des Moines
and the surrounding country are making an or
ganized demonstration against the wolves by
which they have been for a long time annoyed.
1 hotnas J. Brooke has been appointed Grand
Marshal, and has issued General Orders No. 1
dividing the entire population into four divisions,
and appointing marshals to the command of
each. On the morning of the 2tlth each division
is to form, as specified by the order, the whole
to constitute a hollow square, with dogs in the
rank of file closers, and at the command bv >ig
nal the whole army is to advance towards the
centre. Fire-arms are forbidden on the field,
and the dogs arc relied upon as the principal ex
ecutioners. The scene wi I no doubt be grand
and terrible.— Dubuque (l.nra) Herald, Dec 20.
A MONSTER. —A drunkard in Dearbome
county, lu., near Harrison, a short time ago,
drove ins wife from home in a cold night,as re
purled to us by the Brookviile Gemot - rat. She
look with her a young child and started to a
neighbor's. After being out awhile, he started
i little girl of six years after the mother. The
child was thinly clad, anJ started on her er
rand. Reaching a small stream, she could not
g< - t over it, and turned towards home. The
Democrat says she had almost reached home in
safety; hut in attempting to climb the fence
around the home, a rail slipped from its place,
throwing her to the earth and falling across
her neck. In this position she was found by
her frtiier the next morning, dead, and cold as
the snow dr:tis around her. Without lilting
the rail or removing the corpse into his house,
the brute started for an otliccr to hold an in
quest over the body !
SERIOUS ACCIDENT AT THE BIG TUNNEL ON
THE BALTIMORE AM) OLIIO iI.ULROAI). AtlfW
laboring cltoul three years tu pass ntuier a
mountain of rock, working day and night, the
hands, from each end met together on Friday
last. Those on the west end beirer nearer to
those on the ra.-t end than was expected, (only
eight feet between them.) a blast was applied,
which, when exploding, produced fearful and
fatal consequences. From the number at work,
which was eleven, one man was killed, and
eight seriously, some mortally wounded. Two
only escaped unhurt, and they were considera
bly stunned. They did not know that they
were so near together until the explosion.
How fearfully suggestive the truth, that" in

IMPORTANT TO CALIFORNIA PASSENGERS.—
Mr. Cor wine, U. S. Consul at Panama, states
that hundreds of otir countrymen have arrived
at Panama, with tickets purchased for the Pa
cific Mail Steamship l.ine in New York, from
Berfurd & Co., and, being unable to procure a
passage thence to San Francisco with these
tickets, the greater part of them having ex
pended their all in the investment, have been
c anpelled'to remain on the Isthmus in the most
abject poverty and distress, and not a few of
them have contracted disease and died. Mr.
Flint, the agent of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company's line, has written to Mr. Corwine,
stating that tickets purchased from Berford &
Co., are not recognized by the Mail Steamship
Company. Zachrisson, Nelson & Co. state
that Mr. E. Mills, agent of the Brother Jona
than, has no authority to sell tickets for the
'• Union." Persons going to California will
govern themselves accordingly.

Recorder's Ollice, as well as in Orphans' Court business, !
are re<iuested to call ami get them without delay, as my j
term of office expires on the first December. Many fees I
small in amount individually, are due in all these offices,
and of course 1 cannot afford to spend much time in j

of considerable importance tome, I trust a further notice j
will not be necessary. Executors and administrators oi |
estates, as well as some four or five hundred owners of j
Deeds, which have been recorded but not lifted, are par
ticularly invited to give me a call.
