Gen. Pierce and the New Boston Speech. Gen. Pierce, in a letter to Mr. De Leon, one of the editors of the late Southern Press, de nies the truthfulness of the report published in the Independent Democrat and Manchester Democrat, of his speech at Ne\v Boston. He says of it— The pretended report is, and I presume J ■was designed to be, an entire misrepresenta tion, It is not merely untruthful, but is so grossly and absurdly false as to render, in this vicinity, any denial of its authenticity en tirely unnecessary. This, says the Baltimore American, raises a direct question of veracity between Gen. Pierce and the editors of those papers, and Mr. Foss, the reporter; the latter having sub stantiated the correctness of his report by a J legal affidavit. The value of Gen. Pierce's denial is greatly lessened by the fact that though the report of his speech appeared in January last, he has not, until now, and only now when directly addressed on the subject, given any authoritative or public denial of its correctness. It is natural to suppose that if he is as strong a Compromise man as his friends represent him, and therefore opposed to everything having the least leaning to ab olitionism or freesoilism, a report, which at tributed to him sentiments so entirely oppo site to those he reaily entertained, would have been instantly met by a prompt and indignant ! denial, through a channel as public as that which put the alleged slander afloat. This not having been done, and a tardy denial having only now been made when an ulterior object other than the vindication of liis own character is to be served by it, the friends of Gen. Pierce must not be surprised if his de nial does not receive that general credit that it might claim under more favorable circum stances. The Norfolk News gives another specimen of the style in which the war is carried on li'/aim t General Scott by some of the Demo cratic papers: " Had I the power, i wouid erect a gallows I upon every wharf in the city of New York, and hang every J—d Irishman as fast as they come on shore." "Mr. Matthew L. Davis made the above de claration in Washington, on hearing of a democratic victory in New York. lie is a supporter of Scott." Now, this wiil go tire rounds, and, having been once printed in a democratic paper, wiil never be retracted or contradicted therein, though the fact is to it Matthew L. Dacis ha* been lying in his grave in Trinity Churchyard, New York, these two years! — " The Ball i-. Rolling On."' The Detroit Tribune says that at a Scott Club, formed last week, not over twenty miles from Detroit, TWENTY-THREE Democrats, who had up to that time, voted the democratic 2® 1 , ticket, came boldly forward and registered their names amongst its list of members. Among the officers of the Detroit Scott Club, are three of the most prominent democrats in the State. We refer to Gen. Williams, Gob O'Calahan, and Major Kearslev. A Scott Ciub has been formed in Lysander, Onondaga county, New York, consisting of twenty-five members, all of whom voted against the Whigs at the late Presidential election. The Cambridge ( Indiana; Reveille.contain I letters from Joseph 11. Swope, A. Shepherd, and David Carson, heretofore democrats, but who now declare themselves against \\ alpole, and for Scot t. The extensive flouring mil! of Win. M. Henderson, one mile north of Carlisle, was entirely destryei by fire on Monday. The tire broke out in the fourth story, about noon, and is supposed to have originated from the friction of the machinery. The storehouse adjoining was also burnt, and, with the mill, contained from 6000 to 8000 bushels of grain. Mr. Henderson's loss is about 825,000. He was only partly insured. BURGLARY. —On Friday night last, Mr. Ja- Icob Snyder's Clothing Store was entered, and clothing to the amount of 5316 taken. Six coats were recovered yesterday—they were found hid in John Snyder's haymow. There is some suspicion that the thieves are on their way east with the balance of the goods. Huntingdon dole. i Sudden Death. —About six o'clock, on Thursday evening, the lifeless body of Mr. Edward Tipton, a well known and respectable citizen of Baltimore, was found in the woods in the vicinity of the camp meeting at Wa ter's carnp ground, about 11 miles from the city on the Hookstuwn road. As there were no marks of violence discovered upon the corpse it was supposed death had resulted from a fit—the deceased having for some time past been subject to that form of affliction. Mr. T. was a member of the Methodist Epis copal Church, and had been attending the camp meeting during the day in the enjoy ment of usuai good health. — Baltimore Amer ican.

[The above was incorrectly published last week,] Foreign News. e England. —The English papers notice the fishing question generally, and censure 1 the Derby ministry for the excitement cre r ated. e Count D' Oisay is dead, as is also Jo hannot, the celebrated painter. 2 The London Press generally favor the - English interpretation of the treaty of' 1818; > but blame the administalion for not giving 1 previous notice of their intention to enforce it. The subject is creating some anxi | etv. A rumor is current in England, that • j France is about to call a meeting of the 1 maritime powers of Europe, to protest a - j gainst the aggressions of die United States i | against Mexico. i France. —The French Ministry has, t in addition to the appointment of Fould, j I as Minister of State, been otherwise xriod . | ified. It has been decided to have no review ' | fete on the 15th inst. „ The conference between France and Belgium has been resumed. It is reported that the French have bom • barded and taken possession of Tripoli. Belgium. —A telegraphic despatch from • Ostein!, states that the Belgian States Gen - ! eral has decided to reject the Commercial ! treaty made with France. Prussia. —The Cholera has been caus ing dreadful ravages in Posen. i 'l*lie treatv concluded between Prussia, Austria and Russia against the pretensions of Louis Napoleon, has been published, and forms the subject of much comment .| by tile press. The conclusions of the pow i ersenjfieed in the treaty are thus expressed: In the case that the Prince Louis Bona parte, present President of the French Re public. should get himself elected by uni versal suffrage as Emperor for life, the powers will not recognise thai new I form of elective power till after explana tions shall have been .demanded from Prince Louis B maparie as to tue sense and meaning of his new title, and after he shall have taken an engagement —first, to j respect the treaties; secondly, not to en deavor to extend liie territorial limits of France; and thirdly, formally to renounce all pretensions to the continuation or found ing of a dynasty. In the case that the Prince Louis Bo j naparte should declare himself hereditary Emperor, the powers will not recognise the new Emperor, and will address to the French Government, as well as to all the other European Governments, a protest founded on the principles of public law and on the letter of the treaties. Thev will afterwards consult, according to the I circumstances, as to the ulterior measures which they may think it neccessary to take, lit the case that a popular or mili tary movement should overturn tiie Gov ernment of Prince Louis Bonaparte, or simply in the case of the death of that ; personage, l>>e powers bind and oblige themselves to aid and favor by ali means in their power the restoration of the legiti mate heir of the crown, and in the sequel they will recognise no other dynasty but that of the Bourbons, and no other clairn , anlbut M. Count de Chatnbord. In acting thus, they protest beforehand , against the imputation of wishing to attack the independence of France. France is Irce to organise her internal government as she chooses, and tlie powers do not re ject the sv-um called constitutional any more than they reject any other system. But the recognition of legitimate and hereditary royalty does not interest France alone; :• interests all European States, it i JI . ! pr*ncji.L. for v'<rir.!< ',, , * . 1 ." . .

From California. I lie San Francisco dates brought by the steamers Illinois and Northern Light are to the 16lli July, l'hiinews, though two j weeks later, is not of any special import ance. At Mariposa serious difficulties had arisen between the Americans and the Mex ! icans and French, and a pitched battle took place, involving the death of one man and the wounding of a number. Whilst the : opposing parties were preparing lor an other and more desperate encounter the French Consul interposed, and his good ofhees were effectual in preserving the | peace and restoring a proper understand ing. Indian depredations continued to prevail, and the papers are occupied with the details of murders, duels, hostile ren countres, lynching, &c. We take from our files a few paragraphs: One ot the most splendid specimens of golJ ever brought to San Francisco, was dug ai \ iacita, Calaveras countv, bv the present owner, Mr. Durham. Its weight is somewhat over twenty-six pounds, and with the exception of 'a few speeks of quartz, which can be removed with a knife, the lump is a solid mass of pure gold. This was found sixty feet below the surface in a drift of nearly thirty feel from the main hoie. Those prophets who shake their wise heads and assert that the mines are 'giv ing-out,' would do well to , look at this delicate little ' eliispa,' and al j tcr their opinions. Its value is about $5,400. < On the Bth of July, the San Francisco | Herald, published eleven days later intelli gence from Europe and eight days later from the United Slates, received via New Orleans, Vera Cruz, City of Mexico, and Aeapolco, in advance of the mails ; the first occurrence of the kind since the possession of California by the Americans. The Fourth of July was celebrated in San Francisco, with great spirit, by a long procession, oration, fire-works, Ac. Con-1 i spictious in the procession was a long line of Chinese, richly dressed, and bearing a huge national banner of crimson silk, upon which was emblazoned in golden embroid ery, the royal dragon. They are said to have expended $12,000 in getting up their portion of the procession. The Chinese continued to arrive in San Francisco, in great multitudes. Nearly 4000 had reached the city within a fort night. They stopped but a short time, and made their way at once to the mines. The hostility of the miners towards them appeared to be abating, as few reports were received of their expulsion from the mines. THE MARKETS. LEWISTOWN, August 20, 1852.

The total export of coin from the port of Now York, since the first of January last, amounts to $16,755,072. The receipts from j California in the same time, exceed twenty-five I millions. This looks very well on paper, says the Ledger, but it should be remembered that what California is sending back is but part of a large debt due the Atlantic cities. It is not allclcar gains. We should notbuildtoo large ly upon it. It should also be remembered, that we are all the time sending to Europe a very large amount of bonds, of one sort or an other—that these will take annually a goodly proportion of our cotton, corn and pork, to j pay the interest accruing on them, and some ; day or other, perhaps not very distant, a part i of them may be sent home for payment of the principal. It is true, many of them do not | fall due for some years yet, which relieves the party issuing them from any present concern i altout them; still they may be thrown on this market for sale, which, so far as the retention : of coin in the country is concerned, amounts to the same thing as if due and payable. The i proceeds of the sale goes abroad, and as the European creditor never takes our paper mon i ey, goes abroad in coin. VN Apprentice to the printing business will be taken at this offine.
