Items of News The intensity of winter still prevails at the North, it is stated that on Friday last a heavily laden team, drawn by four horses, passed on the ice over Lake Champlain to Port Kent, a dis tance of twelve miles. Mrs. Susanna Ritner, wife of ex-Governor Rilner, died at the residence of her husband, in West Pennsborough township, Cumberland coun ty. on the evening of February 22d, in the 51st year of her married life, and 70th year of her age. She was the daughter of Jacob Alter, E-q., for several years a member of the Slate Legislature, during the session of that body in Lancaster; and the granddaughter of Henry Lund is, one of the first settlers and Mennonist ministers in the county of Lancaster. THE CENTRAL RAILROAD. —Seven additional miles of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad were opened on the Ist instant. It is the first section of the mountain division, and avoids the most serious obstructions on the Pcrtage Road. The unfinished portion of the road is "proceeding rapidly towards completion. In its present unfinished state, we see that the total recipl for March last exhibited an increase over the same month in the year previous of over one hundred and seventy-three thousand dollars. SUICIDE. —Jacob W. Smith, of Selinsgrove, Union county, Pennsylvania, committed suicide, by hanging himself in the garret of his house, in that place, on Thursday afternoon last. For many years the deceased was engaged in mer cantile pursuits in Selinsgrove, and was much esteemed as a citizen. Formerly he was a German Reformed Minister, and was pastor of a large congregation in that Borough. The cause of this rash act is unknown. Mr. Smith was about 50 years of age, and has left a wife and several children. MURDERS IN ADAMS COUNTY. —The Gettys burg Star states that, on Wednesday last, Geo. Krebs. residing in Liltlestown. Adams county, Pennsylvania, made an attack, with a large knife, on bis son, when the latter seizing a club, inflicted a severe blow upon the father's head, which caused his death in a few hours after. The act seems to have been done in self de fence. On the following day, near Benders ville, a colored man, named Mars, was shot and killed by a man Dy the name of Green. MEDICAL COMMENCEMENT. —The annual com mencement of the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania, was held at noon on Saturday, at the Musical Fund Hail, with the customary exercises. On Saturday morning it was discovered that Charles E. Maxwell, of Savannah, w ho had passed his examination, and it was expected would have graduated with the class, was dead. He was found in his bed, having died during the. previous night. The circumstance occasioned a very marked sen sation among the students, and threw a gloom over the proceedings. In memory of their as sociate the entire class wore badges of crape.— The degree of Doctor of Medicine was con ferred by the Rev. John Ludlow, D. D., upon 157 gentlemen; after which an address was de livered to the graduate class by Dr. Samuel Jackson, of the institute of medicine.— Daily Veirs. RUSSIA SHEET IRON*. — In the U. S. Senate, last week, a memorial was presented from Messrs. Shoenberger, of Pittsburgh, and others, asking the grant of a patent to secure to them, for a limited period, the manufacture of the ar ticle known as Russia sheet iron, within the limits of the United States. The memorialists set forth that they have acquired the process of manufacturing Russia sheet iron, but that under the patent laws they cannot obtain a patent, as they are not the inventors, the mode being the same as that by which the article is manufac tured in Russia. They represent that unless a special act of Congress secures to'them, for a limited period, the exclusive manufacture of the article, rival establishments would spring up in the United States, and that the competition thereby engendered would prevent them from ic-alizing the adequate remuneration for their labor and expense of procuringthe process, &c. They contend that the manufacture in this coun try would greatly cheapen the article and bring it into general use. Tiir. DEPOSITION OF ROSAS -yFuli accounts of the deposition of Rosas late Governor of Buenos Avers, are received by the English pa j>ers, taken to England by tire mail steamers. The fight between him and Gen/Urqniza was a very sanguinary one; 4000 persons were slain. Ro-as has taken refuge on board an English steamer, and Urquiza has invested the city of Buenos Ayres. It was the belief at Rio Jar.erio, that General Urquiza would cause the Consti t ition to be respected, and that a popular election would take place for a new President. Urquiza had himself expressed a determination not to be a candidate, his desire being only to remain Governor of Entre Rios; but he would assist in the re-organization of affairs, and is stated to have expressed a wish that the British loan should be attended to, and that arrange ments should be made, to tneet it punctually. Previously to his defeat, Rosas shipped a con siderable amount of treasure, and it was sup posed that he would go to England either in a British ship-of-war, or by the next mail steamer. CtiiroßKiA EMIGRATION*. —Some of the re cent letters from California give accounts of that country, which arc calculated to dampen the ardor of those who look upon it as a mine of wealth, which they have only to reach to pick up a fortune. There are, no doubt, some who do acquire considerable wealth, but it is generally those who have some capital to start upon when they reach there, and which they can invest in some of the many enterprises which must necessarily present themselves in a new country. The great mass of those who emigrate, however, are poor young men, having nothing but their labor to work upon, so that every occupation in which mere labor is re quired is overstocked. The Boston Traveler publishes an account, recently received, which gives the experience of thousands. Some three months since, a large company of mechanics, numbering some twenty-live persons, left Bos ton for California, to try their lurk in the land ol' gold. By the last mail, letters have been re ceived from nearly all the company, and they all concur in saying, that S.in Francisco and the other large cities in that section of the country are thronged with persons of every trade, un able to procure work of any kind. One man writes that he is fully satisfied with what he has already seen, and would, if he had the means, gladly return home. One of the party, a most excellent machinist, we/it to lake a situation, where he was to receive something like SIBO per month. When he arrived, he found that the firm for whom he was to work had failed, and at last accounts he had been unable to ob 11in work. With these facta before them, those who are making preparations to emigrate —and their number appears to be unusually large—should weigh well the prospects before they start, arid have a certain and definite ob ject in view when they reach there. Those v, ho go, trusting to chance fur a favorable turn a their fortunes, will be likely to meet with 5> .d disappointment. The election in St. Louis on Monday last, re sulted in the success of the Whig ticket. After the polls had closed, and whilst a crowd of the friends of the successful candidates were pas sing Werkmeyer's tavern,a German coffee-house, at the corner of Seventh street and Park Avenue, five or six guns were fired upon the multitude, fatally wounding six persons, who died in a short time thereafter. Several others were carried off severely wounded. The ex citement occasioned by the outrage was, of course, most intense, and the infuriated crowd rushed into the (louse and completely demolish ed its contents, and then set fire to the building. Two other buildings adjoining, inhabited by Germans, were also fired and destroyed by the mob. MADISON', Indiana. April 3.—This afternoon, about half past 2 o'clock, as the steamboat 41 Redstone," Capt. Tate, hence for Cincinnati, with about 70 persons on board, including crew, was backing out from Scott's Landing, about three miles above C'arrollton, her boilers burst with tremendous force, instantly killing a large portion of those on board, and dreadfully scald ing and mangling most of the rest. The boat being completely shattered, immediately sunk in deep water, and many of the passengers, who might otherwise have been saved, were drovvned. Of the crew, only the captain and clerk were saved, and tiie former was so severely injured that it is thought he cannot recover. The boat having sunk, it was with difficulty that the bod ies ot those on board could be recovered. Up to 7 o'clock this evening, fifteen dead bodies were recovered, most of them so horribly muti lated as to baffle all attempts at identification. The names of the unfortunates have not been ascertained. CINCINNATI, April 3. —The Chiiicothe papers contain fuli particulars of the disastrous fire that occurred at that place on Thursday last. " Adams' Block,' including the Clinton House, and the adjacent extensive warehouses, were burnt to the ground. In a few hours the entire portion of the city east of High and north of Second streets, was a mass of smouldering ru ins. Included in the destruction, in addition to the block above mentioned, was the •' Ross Block," the extensive row of elegant and spa cious stores between that and the canal, the Madison House, business houses, &e. Of the wholesale establishments on Water street, east of Walnut street, every store to Mulberry street was destroyed. Also, many stores as far east as Bridge street. The merchants had just received their spring goods, and their stork was very large and valuable. The Post-office, the print ing office of the Adrertiser, and the lines of Telegraph passing this section of the city were also destroyed. The books and letters were re moved from the Post-office in safety. The loss is large. Married. On the Otlt instant, by the Rev. Joshua Moore, 'l'. A. WORRALI., M. D. and Mies ELIZ \BETII KERR, daughter of the Rev. Joshua Moore. Died. On Tuesc)ay last, in W ayne township, HEN 11V MILLER, aged about 45 yars. On the 21st February, in Decatur township, Mitllin county, NANCY HOUGH, wife of William Hough, Deacon of the Baptist Church, in Lewistown, aged G2 years, 9 months, and I day. Mrs. Hough was baptised upon the profession of hpr faith in Christ, in the winter of 1-42, and united with the Baptist Church in Lewis town, and maintained her profession and adorned the doctrine of God her Redeemer, until death, by a holy life and Christian conversation, She was a living epistle, of modest virtue, shining brightest in the retirement of her family, w here her worth was best known, and her loss wilt be deepest felt. During the last part of her life she passed through the furnace of aflliction ; but she glorified God even in the fires. She exercised strong faith in God, and indulged a cheering hope of glory and allowed patience to have its perfect work, and in hutnble submis sion bowed to her Maker's will. And when the Messenger come to call her away, -he was ready and willing to go; she was favored with the use of her senses to the last, and died in the triumphs of the gospel of Christ. And eouid she speak from the eternal world to the beloved ones left behind we presume she would say, " Weep not for me—all tears are wiped away from all faces here by God's hand." !>. \V. On the sth February, at her residence, in Mifflin county, RACHEL JOHNSTON, aged I"JC> years, 7 months, and 20 days. Mrs. Johnston was one of the constituents of the Lockport Baptist Church when it was or ganized in the spring of 1842. She professed to be renewed by Divine Grace in the first pro tracted meeting that we ever held in that place, which was in the beginning of that year. And from the time of her baptism to her death, -he lived the exemplary and devoted Christian,' It was her lot in providence to live many years a widow, and also to be tried and trained in the school ot affliction. During the last year of her life she was bereaved of a much beloved daughter, an only chiitNwho died in the bright hope of eternal life, saying—"Come Lord Jesus—come quickly." And not long after this event her " beloved William," as she called him (a young man whom she had raised.) was taken from her by death. And thus the tics which bound her to earth were unloosed in mercy by her Heavenly Father's hand. And then'she desired to depart and be with her God. While in her last lingering sickness, she enjoyed great peace of mind and a cheering sense of the presence of God, and she was resigned to his holy will. And having given herself to the cause of God while she lived, she did not for get her Pastor in her last will and testament. And having set her " house in order" and finish ed her work she fell asleep in Jesus. And her memory is blessed. D W On the 23d inst., at the residence of bis father Thomas C. Alexandor, Esq., in Kielia coquillas \ alley, in this county, THOMAS CLARK ALEXANDER, in the 2Gtb year of his age. Jhe health of NTr. A. began to fail during Die last summer, while engaged in a course of reading at Huntingdon with a view of entering upon the prac tice, of medicine. Realizing that he was the marked victim of that inaidnous disease, consumption, and unable any longer to pursue his studies to advantage, he returned to the hoine ot his childhood, where, re ceiving every attention that parental solicitude could bestow, and sustained by the sympathies ot a large circle of relations and friends, he calmly awaited the issue. Jt was the privilege of the writer, as his p .-tor. frequently to visit him during this period, and seldom nas he seen one 111 similar circumstances, ex hibit more composure of mind, and there is good reason lo behove thai this composure was well found ed. Much of his time was spent as long as his strength would allow it, in the prayerful perusal of the Holy S riptures, and of valuable works on the subject of practical religion, so that when his increas ing weakness forhnde this, he was provided with abundant material for pleasant and profitable medi tation. He retained his senses, and his composure of mind to the last, and just before hisdeparture. re ferred to the language of the christian poet, (which he had often before quoted,) as expressive of Ins view of himself,and of the only ground of his con fidence, * • " A guilty, weak, and helpless worm. On thy kind arms I fall; Be thou my strength and righteousness, My Jesus, and my all." On the 25th inst.. his remains, attended by a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends, weie committed to the tomb after a discourse had been delivered by his pastor from Acts VIF. 59. "Lord Jesus receive my spirit." This is the first breach death has ever made in a family of nine children, and while his parents feel and mourn over their loss, "they sorrow not as others which have no hope, believing that if Jesus died and rose again, even so them ls.,i which sleep iu Jesus will, God being with hint."
