The storm is report ed to hive been one of great force, and has doubtless done considerable damage in the upper end i* the valley. General J^cott. The following tribute to the character of Gen < rul Scott is the more interesting as being a voluntary offering to merit, by a great and good man. at a time and on an occasion ori ginating in a higher motive than under the disturbing influences of party spirit. It may be found in tile fifth volume of W. E. Chan tiin/s puhli.-hed works, in the preface to his i 1, ■••tin*'- on War, deliver- ■! in the year Is.'JS. . Much. also, is due to the ltenifieent influ- ; r-nce 4 .f G n- ral Scott. To this distinguished man belongs the rare honor of uniting with military en rgy and daring, the spirit of a philanthropist. Hi.- exploits in the field, which placed him in the-tirst rank of soldiers, have been obscured by the purer and more j lasting glory of a pacificator, and a friend of mankind. In the whole history of the inter course of civilized' communities, we doubt whether a brighter page can be found than j that which records his agency in the removal ■of the Gherukeiis. As far as the wrongs done j to this race can be atoned for, Gen. Scott has mad" the expiation. In his recent mission to , the disturbed borders of our country he ! lias succeeded, not so much by policy as; by i the nobleness and generosity of his charac ter, by moral influence, by the earnest con viction with which he has enforced on all with whom he had to do, the obligations of patriotism, justice, humanity and religion, it would not be easy to find among us a mam who has won a purer fame ; and 1 would do i something, no matter how little, ta hasten the time when the spirit of christian humanity ; shall be accounted an essential attribute and the brightest ornament in a public man.'' The Hollidayshurg Standard says that the editorial convention of 1840 originated among the editors "down the river who had free ; tickets on the railroad." Wo done our part towards the convention of that year, but with the exception of a ticket to visit the intersec tion some years ago, we have always paid our j way on the railroad, and occasionally put up with the " usual impertinence" of conductors in the bargain. We court neither free tickets nor chalked hats. The people of Huntingdon have been seized with a feverish desire to make the long projected railroad to Broad Top Moun tain. Subscription books are to be opened on the lOth. Y\ e hope they may succeed, as its ■ ■ traction would dcpM.-ite of bituminous coal into market, and do some thing towards the prosperity of that good looking IK trough.

( I.ocofoco National Convention. This motley assembly convened at Balti more on Tuesday last, at the Ilall of the Ma i rviand Institute. The delegates, says the Baltimore American, "thronged rapidly in, and it soon became evident that extensive and complete as the arrangements were, there would be a press for room. The announce ment was made by Mr. J. KETTLEWELL, of the Committee of Arrangements, that each State would only be entitled to seats on the main platform equal in number to their con gressional representation, and that alternates and mass delegates must take their places in tin? reserved seats adjoining the platform. This announcement, however, produced but little effect, and though it was repeated fre quently, the crowding and confusion increased. The lower part of the Hall, designed for the accommodation of spectators, was not crowd ed. though the number of persons in attend ance was large. But few ladies made their appearance in the gallery reserved for their i use—and the numbers did not materially in crease during the opening session. At half past 11 o'clock a small swivel stationed in front of the Ilall added its noisy notes to the general hum of preparation, and was dis charged at intervals until noon." B. F. Hallett, of Mass., called the Conven tion to order, after which Mr. Bright, of la., nominated as President pro /em., Gen. 1 {OVU LES M. SAUNDERS, of North Carolina, which was confirmed. At this time the crow d on the platform had : become so dense that great confusion began to prevail, and it wan evident that without tin* adoption of some means, order could not be preserved suttieientlv to enable the Conven l . lion to advance .with its proceeding-. An other, appeal was made to the alternates and others to withdraw from the platform. Gov. Floyd, of Virginia, said that the con fusion prevailing was inevitable, from the want of sufficient room. But fifteen seats had been allotted to the Virginia delegates, and there were one hundred present. They • could not designate who of that numb w [ should lie entitled to seats on the platform. It was impossible for them to make the dis tinction if they wished to do so. They w.-iv willing to take any place on t!i" floor or in the gallery, but they were detrmined to keep together. They proposed to retire un til room could lie provided for them. Allen G. 1 hurmati, of Ohio, also rose and complained that seats had not been prepared for that delegation. He said they d-inande 1 as a right that they should have scats togeth er. Similar complaints were male by the delegations from North Carolina and other ; States. The Chair announced that before furtlu r proceedings, the Convention would lie opened with prayer. The Be v. -J. Campbell White, Hector of Sr. Andrew's l'rote-taiit Episcopal Church of Baltimore, was then introduced, | and made an appropriate and fervent prayer. On motion of Jacob Thompson, of Missis sippi, it was resolved to appoint a Commitb e ' of one delegate from each State represented in the Convention to nominat permanent of ficers for the government of the Convention ; and each delegation to appoint its own dele gate in said Committee. On this Committee Heudrick B. \\ right, a notorious politician from this State, was appointed. After some debute on minor subjects and the appointment of a committee on creden tial-. the Convention adjourned imtiio o'clock. At that hour the Convention again assem bled, when the Committee appointed lbr that purpose reported for President of the Conven tion, JOHN "V . DAVIS, and a \ ice President from each Stat*-, except South Carolina, which was not represented. David Lynch, -aid to he the circulator of a defamatory publication relative to Gen. Ca-s, was appointed a Vice President from IViinsvlvauia. Samuel Ji. Patterson, from this State, wa appointed one of the Secretaries. The Committee also reported the following resolutions: I'rs'tJred, 1 hat tie* rules of the House of llepresentativfs, a- far a- applicable for the government of this Convention, be adopted as the rules of this Convention. J'cJio/red, That two-thirds of the whole number of votes given shall be necessary to the nomination of candidates for President and \ ice President of the I nited States, by this Convention. U< solced, That in voting upon any question which may arise in the proceedings of this ''.invention the vote shall be taken by States at the request of any one State; each State to be entitled to the number of votes to which such State is entitled in the next Electoral < 'li'-ge, without regard to the number of dd. gates in attendance ; the manner in which said vote is to be east to be decided by the delegation of each State for itself. An effort was made to lay the two-third rule on the table, but was voted down bv a decisive voie, whieh may IK; eip*>idered equiv alent to a declaration that KASS KANT KOME IT! BUCHANAN DITTO! On "Wednesday the want of seats was again felt, and caused much scrambling and noise. Various resolutions were ©Serial— among them to support the fugitive slave law —but the convention was in no hurry to adopt them. Mr. Nabors, of Mi-si-sipp;, offered a reso lution providing that no nomination shall he made for cither President or \ h President, until t;.e platform of the party i- fully laid down. ih< resolution gave rise to much d bate, ami o ing withdrawn, was renewed by Mr. Vise, of Va.. and after still further debate, ! laid on the table. Yeas 155, nays 111. The committee on credentials also mad ■ a repmt which created much •xciteumnt and debate, having recommended the admission o f ho ill the nullifies and Union men from Georgia. .'ls oi the members rose to th' ir feet ainid cries of adjournment, A*c\. and the convention finally adjourned until Thursday. On Thursday, having at last quieted the unruly spirits, the convention got to work, and the first ballot resulted as follows: Cass, 115 Buchanan, Douglas, 20 Butler, 2 Marcy, 27 Houston, 8 T I 1) Lane, oo Dodge, 3 Weller, 4 Scattering, 2 The convention continued to ballot through out yesterday and last evening until 9 o'clock, when the 17th ballot stood—for Cuss, 99 Buchanan, 87 Douglas, 50 The highest vote obtained by Gen. Cass, in the seventeen ballots taken yesterday, was one hundred and eighteen. The Convention then adjourned until this morning, when it is understood a " game of folk'' is to he played which will result in pitching overboard Cass, Buchanan, Douglas, lie., and place in nomination Gen. W. O. of Kentucky ! or one of his calibre. Items of News. The 5 ork Advocate is offered for sale. We have a number of the National Olive Branch, a paper published at Philadelphia, by Thus. C. Clarke.

On the same night John Watson, of Kiski minitix township, during the Hashing of the lightning, accidentally t-i 1 into the lock six miles from Saltshurg, and before rescued was drowned : he is a brother of Sheriff Watson, of Armstrong county. The Supreme Court rendered its final opin ion on Thursday in the \\ heeling Bridge ease, which will compel the company to remove it as an obstruction to navigation.

The General Conference of the Methodist | Episcopal Church, which meetsquadrenniallv, i has been in session for two weeks past at j Boston. It is composed of Delegates elected jby the several Annual Conferences. On j I uesday, the 25th uit., the following elections j were made, Bishop HARDING having died du- I ring the past year, and Bishop HAM LINE being i disabled by infirm health : ; Bishops elected—Rev. L. I). Scott, of New York ; Rev. M. Simpson, of Cincinnati ; Rev. P. C. Baker, of New Hampshire, and ; llev. E. R. Ames, of Indiana. The following Editors have been elected, viz :—T. E. Bond, senior editor of the N. Y. Christian Advocate and Journal : I)r. J. M<- Clintock, editor of the Quarterly Review, N". Y.: Win. 11. Hassner, editor of the Northern Advocate, Ala. : Dr. Wm. Nash, editor of the Christian Apologist, Cincinnati; D. P. Kidder, editor of Sunday School Books and papers; Missionary Secretary, Dr. Purbin. There was also some action taken respect ing the suit brought by the Methodist Epis copal Church South, for a share of the proper ty of the Book and Publication Establishments of the Church; and on a subsequent dav, editors of other church publications were elected. The N. S. General Assembly of the Presby terian Church in session in Washington was chiefly agitated last week by a discussion of proposed measures of Church Extension.— The debate was between those members who > favored the establishment of Ecclesiastical Boards of Home Missions and Education dis- I tinetly Presbyterian, and those who prefer red co-operatnm and union with the Congre gationalists. The latter declared the plans of the former to he fi<* rock on which the Presbyterian Church split in 1837. The Assembly on Saturday week waited in a body on President FII.I.MORE, who was ad dresit'd very eloquently by Dr. ADAMS, the Moderator, to whom he replied in very apt and appropriate terms. Tlie Assembly hav ing also vi-iteil Mount Vernon on the same or previous day, resolved on motion of Rev. Dr. HE MAN. to contribute a block of marble : appropriately inscribed to the Washington Monument, and appointed a Committee to carry the resolution into effect. The O. S.

The Diocesan Convention of the Protest ant Episcopal Church in New Jersey was hel l in Newark last we *k. There was s-une >h'irp shoi ting and warm discussion, between Bishop DOANE and his friends, and his oppo nents, growing out of a presentment made of him by tie* Bishop- of V irginia, Maine and another, on which he is to lie tried by the House of Bishops in October next, after the return of Bishop* Mi CO-KRY, of Michigan, and DEI.ANCV, of Western New ) ork. from England, to which th *y have voyage 1 to at tend the liuinlr-dth aimivi-r-arv of the Bible and Prayer Book 8 ci-ty of the Ghurch of England. The Dioc 'san Convention of the same i liurch in .Maryland had also some warm ili-.-u--ions at its annual session last week. Some censure wa> expre-sed towards Rev. Dr. J OINS, of Christ Church, Baltimore, for having preached in the Eutavv St. Methodist Episcopal Ghurch in that City, and not using the whole of the service jirovid lin the Book of Common Prayer. A correspondence of a polemic kind had taken place between Dr. JOHNS end Bishop WMITTIMGUAM, previous to the meeting of tlie Convention. The Con vention also declined to recommend the u>e of the publications of the Episcopal General Sunday School 1 uion in the Churehc- under its charge—probably a High Church op position to Low Ghurch operation-.
