Celebration of the Anniversary of Indepen
dence.
A number of the friends of Gen. Scott re
paired to (iianxille on Monday last, for the
purpose of celebrating the anniversary of our
independence at that favorite spot. On mo
rion of Martin \. McElear, ANTHONY'
NIPPLE was appointed President, A. J.
AVOXDER and WM. 11. BERRY HI 1,1. Vice Presi
dents, and J. S. Elliott and Charles Jtobison
Secretaries.
The Declaration of Independence was then
read by G. \A AV oois, Esq.. after which Dr.
J . Phreaner delivered an appropriate address
on the day and the merits of the distinguished
hero now before the people as a candidate for
President. lli3 remarks were received with
much applause. Mr. J. \V. Mill.-i then rose
and said—
FELLOW CITIZENS:—I am onlv a plain
working man and no polificau ; but 1 love m\
country, and the great and good men who
have defended our country's rights and honor.
Ever since 1 could read 1 have seen the name
ol AYashington. Jack.-on, Harrison, Decatur,
McDonough, and Scott held up before me as
very great heroes, who shed their blood for
America, and I always loved them and hon
ored tlmiu l have read about Lexington,
and Eutaw, and Monmouth, arid New Or
leans, and lorktown, and Chippewa, and
Queenstown, and Lake Erie, and Vera Cruz,
and Cerro Gordo, and Mexico, and many
other glorious battles where the stars and
stripes were triumphant Washington, God
bless him is dead, and so is Jackson, and
nearly all of those great men ; hut Seott is
living, and long may he live to upliold his
country at home and abroad. 1 don't care ]
whether Scott is a whig or locofoco ; I am !
sure he is a true soldier and a true patriot. ;
and 1 am bound to vote for him first and last, !
and no mistake. I don't care what his reli- |
gion is ; I never stop to ask about that, be
cause 1 am no gicat judge of piety ; but an
o;d soldier, covered with wounds for his coun
try, i.s a good enough man for me. He will
go right when his time comes, and no mis
take He is a sound egg- J tell you now
Old Chin i.s some ; if he air.t, my name's not
•John Miller. He is a perfect birdex, dipt,
ohellered. gaffed and ready fur the fight.
Didn't he lam it into the British at Old Lun
dy's? well he did; didn't he lick the whole
rascally party of Mexicans, including old
Santy ? il ho didn't you may cat me, and the
whole world is full of Scott as a great man
and a good man, and what else <]., it... people
want tor President?
Aou cannot beat Seottio, no sirco * you
can t begin to do it : his name is AVinficld,
and he will win this field or T hope to see
lum die, for defeat would be worse than
death to the glorious hero.
May (tod bless Scott forever is the wish of
my heart, and may the good people of Amer
ica show their gratitude by electing him Pres
ident.

Telegraphic Despatches.
New York, July 0. —Yesterday afternoon,
a most frightful accident occurred at Staten
Island, which caused the death of a number
of persons. Just as the steamboat Hunch
back, for tiiis city, had landed a large num
ber of excursionists at the lower steamboat
landing, the bridge connecting the wharf with
the shore broke down, precipitating several
hundred persons into deep water. The scene
that immediately ensued beggars description.
Many were drowned, and others were so se
verely injured that the worst consequences
are anticipated. A large number of those
who fell into the water were females and
young children, and being unable to make an
effort for their own preservation sunk imme
diately. Mr. Green, the editor of the Phila
delphia Heralu, who, with his sister, fell into
the water, but were fortunately rescued from
drowning, informs us that at least fifteen or
twenty persons must have perished. Every
effort was made to render assistance to the
injured and rescue the drowning, by those in
the vicinity. f~]< to midnight, twelve bodies,
chiefly females, vonng children and infants,
were taken out of the water, and this morn
ing five others were found—making in all, so
far, seventeen. Among the bodies recovered,
those of Mrs. Jane Gwiliiam and her daugh
ter Sarah, of Philadelphia, were recognized.
Most of those on the bridge, at the time of
the accident, were either Irish or Germans.
NEW ORLEANS, July —Great consterna
tion aud distress has been produced in this
city by the dreadful intelligence that the
oteamboAt St James, whilst r. turning from
Bilnxi. on Lake-Pontchartrain, this morning,
exploded her boilers, and taking fire, was
entirely destroyed. She had on board a large
number >jt per oiis. chiefly composed of uiuu
bei'3 of the most j'espoctable families of thi
city, who were returning from the watering
place at lidoxi. It is reported that fifty lives
nave been loot, including Judge Isaac Preston,
>f the Supreme Court of Louisiana: Mr.
YVolll, the Corporation Attorney, ami mailt
other prominent citizens, with their ladies
and children. The St. James was racing, at
the time ol the accident, with tic mail boat
of Mobile.
BALTIMORE, July 6.—A man. named AVil
liam H AVilhams, residing on Federal Hill,
in this city, suspecting the fidelity of his
vrif •, loft his home on Sunday night, as if for
the purpose oi being absent some time; but
returning shortly after, he detected his wife
holding improper intercourse with a man
named Samuel Abbott, which so amused his
jealous feelings, that ho drew a knife, and
stabbing the miserable woman in the back,
killed her almost instantly. He also attack
ed Abbot, wounding him dangerously : after
which, he delivered himself up to the au
thorities. and was committed to jail, where
he has been raving like a maniac ever since.

ECONOMY LS WEALTH,
And this is the most undoubted truth of our
century in getting rich!
VI"" H.VTEVEB you buy, buy it at THE
, T cheapest store, after trying at differ- J
cut places, and don't make your bargains on I
first looking at what i wanting. In strolling j
about town, you may perhaps notice a store |
in M ARKET STREET. Lewistown, next door to j
the Bank, pretty well known already as
KAUITS Cheap Store
— in fact, the cheapest store in town. Try it i
there only once in buying your CLOTHING
— anything for instance of BOY'S A MEN'S •
Y\ LAB, from HEAD to foot, and you'll find
out what a difference ir MAKES to buy in the ;
right place instead of the wrong. There's no j
mistake about this — give him a call ; he wont ;
charge you anything for showing goods, but
he'll be always most polite aud accommodat- I
ing to all who may favor him with a visit.

PRIVATE SALE.
rpME undersigned will offer for sale his well
| J_ known and desirable business stand, situated
on Valley slreet, Lewistown, known as the
: " LEW ISTO VV N POTTERY."
The advantages this stand has in location, the
| facilities it affords for a convenient and. ready
market for its wares, together with its verv ex
tensive patronage, renders it one of the most
i desirable in the country.
The WARES manufactured at this estabiisii
| merit are far superior to any other in the six
counties, and have a reputation that will evti sc
; cure the patronage of the public, from the fact
of the material being inexhaustible, and con
nected wi'.li the concern by a iease of a nu:nb-r
j of years.
The business of Potting has been carried on
successfully at this stand by myself and father
for over 30 years, which is of itself sufficient ad
j vertisemcnt to prove its advantages a? a busi
ness stand. The PERSONAL PROPERTY in
i connection with the concern, w ill also be soia,
: if purchasers desire it.
For further information, apply to the under
i signed on the premises, or by mail to Lew.slown
P. O.
fl3r*The business will be conducted as here
! tofore until further notice. All orders prompt
ly attended to. and wholesale merchants allowed
the usual discount upon the delivery of their or
ders.

Smoke House, and other out buildings tnereon
| erected. There is also a well of water on tlui
premises, Apple, Peach ami Plum Trees in full
bearing—in fact everything calculated to render
it a pleasant home.
The store stand is undoubtedly one of tho
j best in the country, being situate on ths great
! avenue (the Centre and Kishacoquillas Turn
pike,) on which hundreds of thousands of bush
; els of grain are annually taken to market; the
i new turnpike from Milheim, in Centre county,
intersects the Centre and KishacoqoiUa". roai
between the store and tavern, and th3, note
nearly firii'hed, will largely increase the bust
ness—so tliat few places offer more inducements
to an enterprising business man than this.
The location in other respects is highly fuvor-
I able—being six miles from Lewislown, but a
short distance from Brown's well known hi his,
convenient to Schools and Churches, and au un
surpassed valley beyond, whose thrifty popula
tion daily pass the door. It was Ja... t occupied
