TeIYSTERTiCS OF THE DEMOCRACY, AHD MADNESS
OF THE Wirros.—The whig journals throughout
the country are quite in ecstacies, on account of the
fancied irreconcilable disunion of the democratic
par!) , in this great State. Well, we declare, these
sapient whig journalists will be the death of us:
They are the most amusing wretches in existence.
They are continually reminding us that' they can
see as far into a millstone as anybody ; and yet,
poor souls, here they are, utterly blind to the real '
state of political affairs at this moment "Heaven
be praised!" they exclaim " there is to be no union
- of barnburners and hunkers !!---.• The division was
made more decided_than . ever at Rome !"—" The
rascally democrats have gone to perdition ; so let's
be gay!—lets be gay. And off they go in fits of
hysterical laugher.
Now, who is there at all familiar with the cha
racter of the.democratic party, and can read aright
the signs of the limes, who does not clearly per
ceive that the democrats will be completely united,
in this State, in the great struggle at the next elec
tion? These rival addresses of the two, factions,
and all their fuss and fury at Rome, a mount to
nothing, and afford no indications of continued dis
union. The whig journalists, bless their innocent
souls, as usual, reckon entirely without their host
in the present instance. Repeatedly as they have '
been taught that democratic "discord is harmony
not understood," they persist in their blundering
disregard of all experience; and are only awaken.
ed to a sense of their folly by receiving the cus
tomary periodical licking at the hands of their
quarrelsome, squabbling, discordant, disunited op
ponents, who always manage to be affectionate
enough on election days. We have not the least
doubt that the democrats will carry this State tri
umphantly atthe next election. Their defeat in
the presidential contest was the result of the deter
mination of Van Buren to kill off General Cass.
In that notable exploit, the barnburners succeeded:
and both 'factions will now assuredly unite and
carry alf-helore them, the motives of disunion hav
ing been - removed. A 'few or the leaders of the
hunkers will stand out to the last. But the masses
of the party are at this moment, to all intents and
purposes, perfectly united; and the leaders who
hang back, will find it quite convenient and patrio
tic to fall in at the proper time.
But the dear, harmless, unsuspecting, joyful,
dunderheaded whigs. cant see all this! At almost
every step, as they blunder along, their shins are
broken by the stubborn facts over 'which they
stumble, but they will not be admonished that they
are in the wrong track—not they. In one word.
the whigs never had tact or common sense enough
to manage their affairs with discretion. They are
immeasurably behind their opponents in knowledge
of human nature and the e tactics of party. Here
they have, at this moment, at the head of the gen
eral government, a man whd possesses, the elements
of universal and enduring Popularity, and yet the
fools don't know how to turn him and his popular
ity to account! They will be beaten shamefully
in this city and State; and, according to all appear.
ances at this moment, break down still more
shamefully in the administration of the general
government. We believe we must take General
Taylor out of the hands of these blind, blundering
whigs, and put him on his own platform. No popu
larity, however well deserved—no patriotism, how
ever pure—no judgment, however sound—could
counteract the stupidity of a set of politicians who
fan-y those opponents dtad, from whom they are
about to receive a fatal kicking; and who flatter
themselves that their own party is strong and uni
ted., when it is crumbling into fragments. Verily,
verily, General Taylor must be got out of the hands
of the Philistines.—N Y. Herald.
REI.IG IC/VS.—According to the minutes of the
General Association of Connecticut, just published.
there are-in that State 204 Congregational Churches.
252 ministers, of whom 206 are settled pastors;
and 41,070 church members; or if the proper pro
,portion be added for 22 churches not reporting, the
'whole number of church members will be 44.093.
The reported additions to the churches are—by
profession, 752 ; by letter, 705; total, 1,547; or it
here again the proper proportion be added for the
non-reporting churches, the result will be—added
profession, 820; by letter, 807; giving a total of
1,687 additions during the year.

Influenza and Consumption.
It is, indeed, a melancholy truth, that thousands
fall victims to consumption every
. year from no
other cause than neglected colds; yet we find hun
dreds, nay, thousands, who treat such complaints
with the greatest indifference, and let them run on
for weeks, without thinking of the danger. At first,
you have what you consider a slight cough or cold ;
you allow business, pleasure, or carelessness to
prevent you from giving it any attention; it then
settles upon your breast,-you become hoarse, have
pains in the side or chest, expectorate large quan
tities of matter, perhaps mixed with blood ; a diffi
culty of breithing ensues, and then you find your
own foolish negleethas brought; on this complaint.
If, then, you value your life or health, be warned
in time, and don't trifle with your cold, or trust to
any quack nostrum to cure you; but immediately
procure a bottle of that ramous remedy, DR. WIS
TAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, which is
well known to be the most speedy cure ever known,
as thousands will testify, whose lives have been
saved by it.
For influenza it is the very best medicine is the
world.
None genuine unless signed I. BUTTS on the
wrapper.

The subjoined letter from the Rev. Henry Jewell,
a clergyman of the Universalist denomination, is
worthy of the highest consideration. Mr. Jewell
was formerly settled in South Reading—the place
of my manufactures. Those of my friends who
know his reputation as a clergyman, and his integ
rity as a man, will join with me in the opinion; that
his testimony may be relied on by those who have
not yet made use of my valuable medicines:
Dn. S. 0. RICHARDSON : Dear Sir-4 have used
the Bitters sometimes in the dry and sometimes in
the prepared form, for about ten years, with emi
nent success. And, Sir, I cannot refrain from
saying, at this late period, that I feel myself under
peculiar obligations to your lather, for the enefit I
received wlien in very delicate state of heM, nine
or ten years ago, in taking his Bitters and other
medicines, similar, I presume, to those you manu
facture. I could state many instances where indi
viduals have experienced vast benefits from your
medicines. • I used a bottle of your Pectoral Bal
sam last winter, with good success. I wish you
prosperity in your-work of benevolence, tor he who
heals the maladies that flesh is heir to, or eases the
pains of the suffering, performs a benevolent act,
and shall not lose his reward. I cannot find it in
my heart to withhold this five testimonial to the
virtues of your medicines. I give it unsolicited—
free=fearless,independent, and you are at liberty to
do whatever with it you may desire. Ido not send
it so much to benefit you as I do to gratify my own
personal feelings. My prayer is, that your valua
ble life-may long be spared to wipe away the son.'

Lancaster High School.
THE Directors of the Common Schools of the
1 city of Lancaster, will open the Male High
School for regular instruction, on MONDAY, SEP
TEMBER 3, 1849, at 9 o'clock A. M., in the
building heretofore known as the Presbyterian Ses
sion Room, near the south east corner of Orange
and Duke Streets.
Three competent Instructors have been engaged,
viz: A PRINCIPAL; a PROFESSOR of Arithmetic and
Mathematics including practical Surveying and
Book Keeping; and a PROFESSOR of English Lite
rature, comprehending English Grammar, Geo
graphy, History, 4-c.
Instruction in Latin and Greek or in German, and
French and Spanish, will be given to such as desire
and are prepared for it.
As soon as the classes shall be sufficiently regu
lated and advanced Lectures will be delivered by
the Professor on the elements of the natural and
other uselill sciences, illustrated by proper appa
ratus and specimens. To these lectures the pupils
of the Female High School under care of their
Teachers, and all the Cominon School Teachers of
the city will have access.
All the Common School pupils who attended the
schools in Franklin College Building, previous to
the late vacation, will be admitted to the High
School, on the 3d of September, without examina
tion.
As many of the pupils of Mr. Prices' and Mr.
Coate's schools, as shall be found qualified on-ex
amination to take place previous to the opening of
the High School will also be admitted.
All other boys of the city who may desire to en
ter will present themselves at the High School on
Saturday, September 1, 1849, for examination,
when if found duly prepared, they will receive a
certificate of admission.
It is extremely desirable that all who design soon
to become members•of the school, shall do 'so at
the regular opening if possible. Owing to the dis
turbing effect upon the classes produced by en
trance at any other period, such irregular admis
sions will not hereafter be permitted except in
extreme cases.
To insure regularity of attendance, and to free
the school from the retarding influences of negli
gent pupils, the rules of the Board relative to the
jorfeiture of seats will he rigidly enforced

Wortz's Submerged Patent Water Wheels,
W e have purchased the patent right for the
above valuable improvement for this county, and
also shop rights for the counties of Dauphin, Leba
non, Berke and Chester. We have a number of
certificates in our possession, but we do not deem
it necessary to submit them to the public, the origi
nals of which may be seen by calling at the works.
We beg leave, however, to call public attention to
the following letter, addressed to a citizen of this'
county by the superintendent of an extensive manu
facturing establishment - in Franklin - county :
CHAMBERSBURG, A p ril 28, 1849.
Ma. HENRY E. LEaffiri:—Your favor of the 25th
inst., is at hand, and in reply say that the Grind
stones we run-with
. Wortz , s wheel are from 5 to 6
feet high, 9 to 12 inches thick, weighing mom 3 to
5000 lbs. We formerly used an undershot wheel
12 feet wide and 14 feet high. Our head in an
ordinary stage of the water is about 3 feet, 3 or 4
inches. Sometimes much less than that. With
the old wheel we run two grindstones. In the same
. place •we have now four of Wortz , s wheels (3 36
and 1 40 inches,) running four grindstones and one
trip hammer weighing about 80 lbs. with less water
and doing more work in the same time. In regard
to the quality of the wheel for the purpose of
grinding, it is far superior to any I have ever used
or seen used, and for a low head I oelieve it is the
best wheel in use—during the whole winter (which
has been unusually cold, we have not been affected
at all with the ice, and in high water at a-stage
which would stop the old wheel entirely, we now
find no inconvenience from back water. Any fur
ther information on the subject I will be happy to
communicate, or it you could make it,convenien,t
to visit Chambefsburg I will take great pleasure in
showing you the wheels. Respectfully, yours,
