County Meeting. hsillE Whigs of Miffiin county arc invited toat tend a meeting to be held at Irwin's Hotel tin SATFRDAY EVENING, March 13th, 1-52, to appoint a representative delegate to the State Convention, and, if necessary, conferees to se lect a senatorial delegate. By order of j The County Committee. A considerable quantity of ice is still . lodged in the canal, and although water was to have been let in yesterday, naviga tion will hardly open before the middle or close of next week. SURGICAL OPERATION. —James Daley, who was injured some time since on the Pennsylvania Railroad, underwent ampu tation of the right leg above the knee on Mondav last, at the County Poor House, in the presence of the directors, Messrs. ■ Wakefield, Mathews and Brown. Ihe patient, who is doing well, was under the ; inllucnce of chloroform, and was entirely insensible to pain. The operation was performed in one minute and a half by Dr. Worrall, assisted by Drs. Mat tin and Herring. The locomotive, tender and baggage car of the Tuesday morning train, were thrown off the track by n rock near Barre, Huntingdon county, and plunged into the river. Some ol the passengers who were smoking cigars in the baggage car sud denly found themselves enjoying a cold ■ bath, in several feet of water. The loco motive it is thought will be got out without much damage. The Canal Commissioners have com promised with their consciences by order ing the canals to be closed every Saturday night at 12 o'clock, and keeping them closed until Sunday night at that hour, against all except packet boats. This is drawing a straight line between the saints ami sinners. An able communication in another col- I limn puts a different face upon the bill for reducing the tax on tonage than that given by our neighbor and the Ilarrisburg Key stone. We know not what are the merits j or demerits of the bill in question, but A Taxpayer is evidently conversant with the subject, and hence his statements are , entitled to consideration. SARTAIN has issued four numbers of his Magazine this year, with illustrations in each that are worth more than the price of subscription. The Morning Bath, in the January number: View of the Capi tol and Columbus and his Companions, in the February ; Raffaclle and the For narina, in the March ; and the Magic Lake, in the April number, arc all of an , order of merit seldom met with, lit lite rature, lie has also been fortunate, his his Magazine for those months comprising a rich fund of highly meritorious matter. Additional inducements to subscribe are offered in the adverusment published in I another column, to which spot tul attention is irnited.

Pennsylvania Legislature Me. notice nothing oi special interest to our read; rs in the proceedings of the Legislature since our last. Numerous pe titions in iavor ol the Maine Liquor Law ■continue to pour in from ail parts ol the State, and on ft vote in the Senate to refer the memorial of the Brewers of IMula •delphia to the Judiciary Committee, the n-ote was regarded as in favor of the Maine Law. The first sections of Mr. Muhlenberg's "jiii for regulating the public works have passed the Senate by decisive votes. Our representative sent us word the otlici day that the Granville Road had ■been repealed ! That's right, General —but .hereafter don't pass any such bills until you are sure they are wanted, and then "here will be no necessity for repealing .to .bera. The 4th of March Convention. This body assembled at Ilarrisburg at the appointed time, and after duly l.tbor in,r in the cause, brought fourth ten cents for President, and seven cents for Canal Commissioner. Hon. Wm. Hopkins was appointed President of the convention, with 21 vice Presidents (Davis Bates among the number) and eleven Secretaries. I The preliminaries having been thus ar ranged, the Buchanan men fell to work, and in a short time made mince-meal ot the corporal's guard in favor of Cass, as the following vote will show : For Buchanan, 97 " Cass, "'2 " Sain Houston, ~ R. J. Walker, 2 A somewhat unusual resolution was next adopted to select a committee ot 1 j to report a double set of delegates to the Baltimore Convention, all to be composed of firm Buchanan men, with no other pre ! ference. This was violently opposed by the friends of Cass, and a protest submit ted. signed bv Davis Bates and others, but * O it would not do—the Buchanan men had the convention in their power, and seemed determined to make the most oi it. In fact, they carried their jokes so far, that not being able to find a proper man for the ! committee of twenty-four among the dele gates from this congressional district, the President appointed H. C. Ever. of Fnion county, to represent it ! On the following day the delegation to Baltimore was announced, and we dure say the democracy of this region will be startled to learn that James Campbell , the defeated candidate for Judge of the Su preme Court, and David 11. Porter are two of the Senatorial delegates. S. F. Hench, of Juniata, and Judge Wilson, of ! this county, are to represent the 17th dis trict. For Presidential Elector, James Burnsidr, of Centre, was named. The representatives from Blair, Hun tingdon, Centre and Mifflin, presented tiie names of Judge A\ ilson as delegate to the National Convention, and S. T. Shugert, of Centre, as elector, but the convention quietly laid the paper on the table. The convention next proceeded to bal lot for Canal Commissioner, and Mr. Sea right, having gained some favor among the Buchanan men by offering a resolution to confirm the nomination of Buchanan unan imously (hut which thirty of the Cass men would not do,) the question was soon decided. Mr. BATES, forgetting that the county convention had declared for Jesse IE Crawfurd, Esq., voted for Jack Cum mins on the first hallot. but on the second, third, and fourth stuck to Searight. The last vote stood as follows : Wm. Searight, of Favette, 77 (1. T. Mason, 117 11. S. Mott, 10 J. B. Bratton, 8 The Convention then, after returning sundry thanks and passing a resolution that the Cass men having been " decently licked, ought to submit like men," ad journed. The editor of the Bedford Gazette, hav ing condemned some of Governor Bigler's anointments, and snarled a little at the Ca nal Commissioners, is now receiving kicks from all quarters. A correspondent of the True Democrat gives him a dig or two be neath the ribs, and the Huntingdon Globe recommends him to grease his puffing ma chine until the springs commence opera tions, when*he can again lather visiters , & with the usual " thaft thoap." We sus pect il Governor Bigler had appointed Geo. W. Bowman Adjutant General, it would have been all right.

Ner Middleswarth, Esq., has been con firmed by Juniata county as senatorial delegate lor this district. This will ren der a conference unnecessary. G aream had some lresh shad on hand this week at £1 p er pair. The Maine Liquor Law has been defeated in the New Jcr'cy Legislnture, by a vote of 46 to 12, on the ground that it ,s impracticable and oat of its latitude. The Washington correspondent of the North American, savs that "since the opening of the session there has been an apparent struggle between the two houses of Congress, as to which should go further in appropriating the public lands. I bus far, the race has been nearly equal ; for both have exerted themselves to a remark able extent, in the expectation of courting ' favor with the new Stales. The only ob servable difference between the competitors ; lias been that, while the members of the ; Senate who exerted themselves most con spicuously were seeking popularity for the Presidency, those in the House engaged in the same enterprise were endeavoring to j take care ol themselves. Of all the ques tions of the day. this one of the public lands has been made to answer the most ; corrupt purposes of party : and its inime- I diate influence has done more to contami nate political society than all the other means which have been employed. In stead of adopting some fair principle of j distribution, or of equalizing the grants, j every new State in which valuable land is , located has m ule its individual bid for con sideration, and in this way millions upon j millions of acres have been voted, without any regard to the policy to which Con gress was daily committing itself. If the : old States cannot be taken into the account of indiscriminate appropriation, as they ought to be, there is great force in the states- i manlike suggestion which Senator Hell threw out the other day, of applying all 1 such resources to the strengthening of the national fortifications, and to an increase of the Naval establishment. A commercial nation is rendered most formidable and se cure, when its flag floats over the ocean with an undoubted capability to redress any indignity that may be offered, and to assert every right that may consistently be claimed. There is every reason why we * should feel a just pride in our navy, and abundant inducements of policy, under the threatening aspect of affairs in Europe, why it should he placed in such a condi tion of strength as to stand before the world ready for any emergency that may chance to occur. Prejudices have been most unjustly excited against this great arm of the national defence by those who have ! : either not taken the pains to investigate its history, or who are wholly indiflerent to ' its importance. But these unworthy ef forts have produced small effect upon the public mind, and have not reached the en lightened opinion of tlie country, which always has been, and always will continue | to be. properly partial to the navy, which contributed so much to establish confidence j in our own resources and energies during ! the last war. NEW REMEDY FOR THE TOOTH ACHE. Mr. : Jas. Houston, of Airdne, says, "Gum Copal, I when dissolved in chloroform, forms an e.xcel ler tcompound for stuffing the holes cf decayed ' teeth. 1 have used it very frequently, and the j I benefit which my patients have derived from it j has been truly astonishing. The application is simple and easy. 1 clean out the hole, and j moisten a little cotton with the solution ; I in- | troduco this into the decayed part,and in every I 1 instance the relief has been almost instantane i ous. The chloroform removes the pain, and the gum copal resists the action of the saliva, and as the application is so agreeable, those who may lalvir under this dreadful malady would do weil to make a trial of it."— Medical I'iriies in Jmir. Ihn. Science. We learn that Dr. Worrall has prepared a solution in accordance with the above, which is said to he an cllceluul remedy for toothache. The Veto Power. (lov. Bigler, savs the llarrishiirg Ameri can, has already vetoed several bills, and the Democratic I nion gives out that there is to be an indiscriminate use of ibis :u --bitrary power during the present adminis tration. It hints that the Bank hills, | though they may possibly pass the Legis lature, will be strangled by the Execu tive. We hope this may prove true. We would like to see the Democracy take ; the responsibility of these measures upon their own shoulders, and we think the j Whigs in the Legislature should not in ! terfere in the passage of these hills at all. j In our opinion they should step aside and let the Democracy take the whole respon sibility of passing tliein. In their presses i and on the stump they are continually de- j nonliving these institutions, and when the) come before the Legislature they are amongst their warmest advocates. Nearly J all the banks that arc asked lor, are asked ! by locotoeos, so let them legislate them selves, and the people will see how tbey are humbugged on this subject. We should like to see the Whigs in a body ! wash their bauds of all participation in any legislation for the charter of Banks. CALVJRMA EMIGRATION. —Some IDEA of the rush to California, and of the crowds who throng j the Isthmus awaiting a passage, may be formed j from the fact that the steamship Golden Gate, ; which left Panama on the 12th ult., for Sao j Francisco, took up thirteen hundred passengers. The New Orleans, on the same day, took up six hundred. A large number also took pas sage by sailing vessels, between the Ist an' ]6th of February, and there yet remained at , Panama between four and five thousand per- j , sons awaiting- a conveyance to California. , F',r the Gazilte. Important Bill. A bill has been for some time before the le gislature of this Stale, which provides that an abatement of the State tax of 3 mills per ton per mile shall be made on all local freight pass ing over the Pennsylvania and Lancaster Rail roads, provided the companies running these I roads shall make a corresponding reduction, and ■ shall send their freight by the way of Columbia over the whole extent of the Philadelphia and I Columbia Railroad. That a hilt so greatly conducive to the inter- j ests of the State, so advantageous to the resi | dents along the valley of the Juniata, and so im ! portant as a financial measure tending to in ! crease the revenue of the commonwealth, should j be opposed by members of the legislature under ! the impression that it will effect the revenue of ; the State injuriously, is most singular, and furn ishes a lamentable illustration of that want of practical information and clear discrimination on certain questions which are sometimes I evinced in the course of gentlemen possessed of even more than ordinary intelligence on other ; subjects. The tax was imposed upon the tonage of the ! Pennsylvania Railroad in the belief that the I construction of this road would injure the busi ; ness of the main line by the diversion of trade. Whether this view is in general correct, or ..ot, we do not now propose to consider ; certain it. is that it is grossly erroneous when applied to the local freight of the Juniata. For example, a i boat load of 60,000 lbs. of grain, carried a dis tance of 90 miles on the canal, which is more I than a full average between Columbia and Hol- I lidavsburg, would pay to the State, a! the rates which obtained last year, 5*28,80; whereas, the same freight carried in cars on the Columbia I Railroad, would pay to the State <03,96, or an i actual gain to the State, except some increase in cost of motive power, ol §3.7,16, or 122 pet cent. As none of the local freight from the Ju ; niata is transhipped at Columbia to the railroad, but passes to Philadelphia over the Tide Water Canal, it might be supposed that the State would allow a large premium to encourage its transportation in cars rather than by boats. Vet so far is this from tl.e fact, that a lax is laid on this freight for the purpose of preventing its | transportation by railroad. That a course so su icidal to the interests of the State, should be 1 sanctioned by intelligent legislators, is most 1 surprising. We are happy to learn, however, that a majority of the board of Canal Commis sioners have taken a more liberal and enlighten ed view of tiie subject, and approve of the pas sage of the bill as a measure calculated to in- ; i crease the revenue of the State. But this is not ail. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company are permitted by their charter, and are required in self defence, to add the whole of the tax to their rate of toll, and it is therefore paid by the residents along the line of road, thus de priving them to a considerable extent of the use of this improvement, and retarding greatly tire development of the natural resources of the j country and the consequent increase of wealth i and population. The distance from Dillersville ' to Holiidaysbut'g is 175 miles—the tax per ton for this distance is 52£ cents. Can any one sup pose for an instant that coal or the inferior kinds of lumber can bear this tax on transportation r ■ ' Certainly not, and in proof of the fact, it appears ; that neither coal nor lumber have ever been car- i ried over the Pennsylvania Railroad as a regu lar business, and cannot be until this restriction : is removed. The Railroad Company is not the principal sufferer by this ill advised policy—the I citizens of the interior of the State arc injured : by it to a tenfold degree. It cannot be alleged that the canal gains what j the railroad loses by this policy, tor the effort is to crush the earliest developments of a business that might become an important source of reve nue. Immense forests lie within a few miles of the railroad, near Tyrone, which cannot by any i possibility be made to yield their products to the canal. Vast fields of coal lie in the same local- j ity, which are too remote from the canal to per i mil even the thought of a connection with it by means of wagon transportation. How ruinous | then must be that policy which condemns the one to rot in the soil which produced it, and forbids j the. application of the other to the arts of life, j By the provision that ail the Pennsylvania ; Railroad freight shall pass over the whole ex ' tent of the Columbia Railroad, the State would : receive tolls on the whole of this business for 11 miles more of road, or an increase of 16 per ; cent on that which is now received byway of Dillersville. We learn that 1 tie Pennsylvania Railroad Com . pans are indifferent to tin* fate of this bill, and make no effort cither to favor or oppose it. It is, in fact, of much less importance to the corn : puny than to the State. All that the company i can gain is an increased business from a rcduc- 1 : tion of tolls, while the State secures the benefit I of the same increase, ami in addition the large revenue arising from the difference between . railroad and canal rates of toll, and the com- j paratively small expense at which an increased business on a railroad can be accommodated, as wi 11 the niv>v ision thai 11 miles more of the ' Columbia Railroad spall be used in its transport- > ation.
