Dear Sin: On behalf and in the name of the Central Southern Rights Association of Virginia, we most cheerfully transmit to you a copy of its resolutions, adopted on the 2Sth day ol the last month, ami respectfully invite you to visit opr city, and, on such day as- you may select, adjhresa our people. In making you this communication, we take leave to say that in you, ns one of the gifted statesmen of Pennsylvania, we have, in all past time, found a devotion to the great interests of the nation, its constitution and permanency, worthy of all imitation. Without doubt or hesitation* we may truly say you have ever been found a firm friend to all parts of the nation, arid .ever ready to maintain the rights of each against all factions or parties. Come, then, and' speak to us in that lan guage of instruction and of wisdom which has signalized your life. We are, most respectfully, your fellow citizens, - -D a crnTT C.';S.’MORGAN, i Committee. THO. E. JETER. 3 ‘‘Whereas the Central Southern Rights Association of: Virginia, entertainirig the most profound love and admiration for the constitution of the United * States as it \yaa written and understood by the pa triots'and sages who adopted it, and entertaining the like love and regard lor the union of the States upon the principles of the constitution as so under stood, being willing and ready to pledge their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor for the maintenance both of the : constitution and. union of the States in their original purity, and havinglearn ed from his published' letters and written opinions that the Hon. James Buchanan, of Pennsylvania, entertains the like views and sentiments: “therefore, « Resolved , That the Hon. James Buchanan, of Pennsylvania, be invited to address this association at such time as may suit' his convenience, and to counsel with us iii regard to the best means to be adopted in the present alarming crisis for the maintenance of the constitution and union of. the States in their, original purity.” . Wheatland, (near Lancaster,) April 10, 1851. Mi Beau Sins: I have received your kind letter of the 2d instant, with the resolutions adopted by the Central Southern Rights Association of Vir ginia, inviting me to address the association at such time as may suit my convenience, and to counsel with them “in regard to the best means to be adopted in the present alarming crisis for the maintenance of the constitution arid the union of the States in their original purity ” I should esteem it both a high honor and a great privilege to comply with this request; and there fore regret to say that engagements—which I need not specify—repder it impossible for me to visit Richmond during the present or possibly the next month. The association do me no more than justice, when attributing to me a strong desire “ for the maintenance of the ‘constitution and the union of the States in their original purity.” Whilst Yew men in this country would venture to avow a dif ferent sentiment, yet the question still remains, By what means can this all-important purpose be best i accomplished 'i X feel no hesitation in answering,» by a return to the old Virginia platform of State I rights, presented by the resolutions of 179 S and 1799, and Mr. Madison’s report.] The powers conferred by the constitution upon the general gov ernment must be construed strictly* and Congress must abstain. from the exerice of all doubtful powers. But it is said these are mere unmeaning abstractions; and so they honestly car ried into practice. Like the Christian’s faith, how ever, when it is genuine, good works will inevita bly flow'from a sincere belief in such a‘strict con struction of ths constitution. Were -this old. re- principle adopted in practice, we should po, IjOPger 'witness unwarrantable and dangerous attempts in Congress to interfere with the institu tion of domestic slavery, which belongs exclusively to. the States where it exists. There would be no efforts to establish high protective tariffs; the pub ' lie money would not be squandered upon a grand system of internal improvements, general in name, but partial in its very nature, anil corrupting in its tendency, both to the government and to the peo ple; and we would retrench our present extrava gant expenditures, pay our national debt, and return to the practice of a wise economy, so essential both to public and private prosperity; Were I permit ted to address your association, these are the coun sels 3, should give, and some of the topics I should discuss, as thej best means “ for the maintenance both' of the constitution and the -union of the States in their, original purity,” and for the perpetuation of our great arid glorious confederacy. - - With sentiments of high regard, I remain, yours, , very respectfully, JAMES BUCHANAN.

It is gotten up with considerable taste and presents quite a neat appearance, something after the style of the Albany Cultivator.' It is published in quarto form of 32 pages on strong and fine paper, with a neat and appropriate cover. Its editorial articles and remarks are characterized by sound sense and ability, and the selections, are evidently made with care and discrimination. It is also embellished with appropriate ongravings representing cattle, fowls, &c. 130,905 00 13,708-55 The Journal is edited by Professor S. deman, of Columbia, and published in this city by Mr. A. M. Spangler, at the rate of $1 per annum for a single copy; to clubs of five, it will be‘sent for $4; to ditto of ten, $7,50; and of twenty, 815,00. , . - It ia scarcely necessary to add, that the enter prise is one that should be encouraged by the Far mers of this county and of the State. A periodical of the kind has long been needed in Pennsylvania. They have them in New York, Maryland, and other States, where they exercise a most important influence in their line —and the Old Keystone should not be behind her neighbors in the good work. - We bespeak for thb Journal a favorable recep tion with the public, and wißh the editor lislicr abundant success in their undertaking. On Tuesday connection of the venerable Thomas Ritchie with this valuable democratic journal ceased, and he took leaye of his patrons in nn able valedictory, in which he paid a high com pliment to his talented successor. On Wednesday Maj.DoNELSONIs salutatory ap pcaferi, covering four columns of the paper, and making known his sentiments fearlessly and with out reserve on alMhe prominent topics of the day- His address bears the impress of a strong and vig. orous mind, well disciplined in the politics of the day, and is just such a paper as might have been expected Irom a disciple and protege of the illus* trious Jackson. We commend the Union to the generous support of the Democracy of the whole Union and wish the new editor and proprietors abundant success in their undertaking. • Wc liavb received the first number of a neatly gotten up periodical, entitled t( Tho Temple,” to be published monthly at Harrisburg, and to be de voted-to Free Masonry, Literature and Science. “ The Temple ” is edited by B.

Each number will contain 32 pages, with an illustration and colored coVcr, and will be furnished to single subscribers at the rate of $1,50 per annnm. To clubs it will bo sent at a much cheaper rate. Tbo number before us is' beautifully illustrated with a portrait of P. G. M. Joseph R. Chandler, of Philadelphia. ‘ T, The mammoth, establishment of Messrs. J. M. June & Co., is to be. here on the Ist of May—see advertisement in another, column. This is the same Company that was here last fall, and whose -performance, especially that of Mad’lle Tourniaire, gave such unbounded satisfac tion to all who witnessed it. -It 'is one of the best Companies of male .and female, equestrians, that has ever visited Lancaster, and will doubtless com mand an U7* The this City, is already so iar finished thatfreight and passenger cars have commenced passing over it. Itwas'burned down on the 4th inst, and in the short' space'oi fifteen days has been re-built, a promptitude on the part of the State officials highly deserving of commendation. The master builder, D. Stone, Esq-, and his as sistants, also deserve much praise for the Bkill and energy they have displayed in the work. DIT" We direct jpublic attention to the advertise ment of our friend V. P. Andeebow, who has re cently opened a Confectionary establishment, in N. Queen street, .next door to Sprecher’s'Hardware Store. Mr. A. is a young man of active business habits, whols well Qualified to administer to the tasjes and gratification of the public—and a 9 hiß fitted up in the best style, equal, if not superior to any thing of the kind in the City, he deserves, and we hope will receive, ample encour agement.

And we are sincerely pleased to be enabled to Bay so. Prominent among the'obnoxious measures de feated, we are glad to notice the whig attempt to increase the State debt, by issuing a million of small notes, and also the effort to reduce the num- Jber of Canal Commissioners to a single person.— Among the acts that have been done, the appropri ations to the Portage and Columbia aud Philadel phia Railroads, and the North Branch Canal, will be,hailed with much satisfaction; each operating distinctly and favorably upon the of the State, and hence affecting the prosperity of the whole people. The bill to repeal the obnoxious section of the statute of 1547, in regard to fugitives, which has, we hope, received the signature of the Governor, will be hailed with much satisfaction by the people. Several important Railroad charters were granted, but no one, that will operate diaster ously upon the interests of the commonwealth.— The private bills are said to unusually numerous, but necessary. The discussion of the Free Bank ing bill, if it produced no other result, prevented the granting of several new bank charters, and thus protected the producers from the multiplication of paper money—still the manifold curse of our day and time. The bill regulating Judicial districts is such a one as the people will applaud, apd will well carry out the new amendment of our State Constitution for the election of Judges. We noticed among the visiters to this city on •Wednesday, General W. F. Packer, Senator from the Lycoming district; and we perceive that Sohn :S. Rhey, Esq., the Armstrong member of the House, ;is still among us. Senator Bdckalew passed through the city to his northern home on Wed nesday, and Senator Sanderson has, we believe also left for Towanda. Noticing these names on the books of our hotels, recalled to us the services which these gentlemen had respectively rendered to the Democratic party or to 'the State in the last Legislature. General Packer’s able speech in favor of the Sunbury and Erie- road—Mr. San DinsoN’s masterly argument on the.Tariff —Mr. Buckalbw’b eloquent an dlogical address in favor of the repeal of the State law in reference to fugitive slaves—and Mr. Rhey's active and energetic ef forts as Chairman of the Committe on Ways and Means—constitute, for each, a just claim upon . popular favor and confidence in all quarters of this State. Can we forget Mr. Bonham, the young and gifted representative from Cumberland whose speech in favor of the Tariff of 1846, has given him a national reputation; General Brtndle, of Lycoming, whose honest and straight-forward cot/rse merits honorable mention; Glenni W. Sco fibld, of Warren, for his- speech against the pro posal to razee the Canal Board; Mr. Lebt, of Washington, for his constant exertions to put Penn sylvania right on the fugitive slave question; our Hughs, for his'patriotic course on the same ques ; tion; and Senator Henry A. Muhlenaerg— last, not least—for his powerful argument against the system of Free Banking? There are dobtless oth ers, but these were the active spirits of the interior Democracy, and at the risk of being called to ac count for praising such of their conduct as deserves praise, we have deemed this public notice due to each and to all. If they had deserved censure, they should have received it Indeed, representatives so often earn condemnation, that we are rejoiced when enabled to speak well of them. The great major ity of the Democratic party, in both branches of the last Legislature, behaved so well, and. have presented so comparatively gratifying an account ot their stewardship, that it would be withhold from them these deserts.—Pennsylvanian. Judge Lewis. This4 ent ' emali continues to be very tavorably spoken of in different sections of the State, for a seat on the Supreme Bench. The following notice of him we .clip from the Lawrence County Journal of Saturday-week: It is gratifying to us to see with what unanimity the Democracy of Pennsylvania have fixed upon our old friend Hon. Ellis Lewis, of. Lancaster county, as one of the Ljpmocratic candidates for the Supreme Bench in this State. From present ap pearances he will he nominated without a dissent ing voice. His moral character is above reproach, and he is well -known to possess talents of a high order, and in whose honesty and integrity as a jurist none can doubt. His well known talents, energy and industry, have very properly placed him in the front rank of jurists in Pennsylvania, and if nomi nated,will add much strength to the ticket through out the State. A better selection cannot he made. Incendiarism. The following letter from a respectable source in Utica, N. Y., discloses facts of a very remarable character, exhibiting a degree of depravity in the gratuitous and wanton perpetration of crime which it is painful to contemplate: Utica, N. Y, April 10, 1851. Our city police have recently brought to light one of the most extraordinary gang of incendiaries that ever cursed a community. Over §150,000 worth of property have been destroyed by some forty-three or four different fires during the past eighteen months, embracing stores, hotels, dwelling houses, shops, lumber yards and churches—all of which now . turn out to have been set on fire by some five or six young men attached to two engine companies. I should perhaps except two Bmall fires. The proof against them is sufficient and their conviction is certain, and it is more than probable that they will plead guilty. Some instan ces have been arson in the first degree, which is punishable by death. The most remarkable fea ture in the whole transaction, is the utter want of motive to prompt to such enormity. The very men who put the torch to the buildings worked the hardest at the fire. The young man who helped me to get into the study and save the library of our pastor at the fire of our Church, was the identical person who went up the steeple and set the edifice on fire. He is now in prison awaiting his trial for arson in the first degree. The only reason Sssigned by the guilty parties is that they wanted a little fun aniT frolic, and that they went on undetected until they acquired a sort .of mania for such excitement as the French do for suicide. The CUoctaw Intelligencer. We are undea obligations to Samuel IX Humes, Esq., residing at Fort Washita, Arknnsas, for a number of the “ Choctaw Intelligencer,” published at Doaksville, in the Choctaw Natioh. It is pub lished bit natives, and edited by - whites, and is printed half in Choctaw and half jn the English language. The paper makes a very creditable ap pearance, and the English department is interesting. As-we are unacquainted with, the Choctaw dialect, we are not prepared to say auy thing in reference to that department. ~ Phrenology. —Thoso of our readers who wish to have their characters read, according to the phre nological structure of the cranium, would do well to call upon Mr. Wilkinson, recently from Europe, who comes highly recommended, and whose ex aminations so far, since he has been with us, have been characterized by truthfulness and fairness.— Mr. W. is a Practical Phrenologist, and will remain in tHls City for a few days, at’the Swan Hotel, where all who desire an examination can have, the opportunity. ID* The new steam flouring mill of Mess. Stoll & Co,, is now in’successful operation, in this City, aiufiß said to be an admirable invention. Tlie World’s Fair a Failure. It seems to be a glowing opinion that Joha,BuU > will make a handsome of f Palace. The New Gomier refers to r many recent accounts, as showing the Worid’a Fair is likely to prove a rafher for all .who have any thing to do-.with it except the,Cock* mes, who are making thfemost. eaSsnnva and cute arrangements to fleece all the Yankees and other ■foreigners who are gudgeons enough to get caught there. The grievances complained of by the Courier are,' that ooYhbuntrymen*who liave sort -goods to the Glass themselves to almost numberless hindrances and charges that will make their contributions to the- great show enormously expensive* articles, sent were land«t’,at South ampton free of cfiarge by ouraWngdveriimenty&nd at that point they should have been taken in charge by the British government iand placed safely in the show house‘free Vf cost But, instead of this being done, at every point onr exhibitors have been met by mercenary opposition, as though they were try ing to sniuggte contraband goods into the market, instead of being-friendly-contributors to a show to which they had been invitedby brother Bull. Ev ery case has to be submitted to Custom House Su. pervision, for which a charge is made; they have to be transported Irom Southampton to London at a heavy cost, and! from the Railroad terminus to the glass palace at another heavy charge; arrived there the exhibitors discover that they must pay for ad- j mission to superintend their own contributions; in : addition to these annoyances the owners of patent machines, find that the moment they expose their inventions to the inspection of. the great British public, their discoveries will be stolen with as little compunction as our publishers have in robbing an English author. But these are not all, it has been found that the roof of the palace leaks, and in spite of putty will let in the rain and the wind,'so that after the goods get into the show room they stand in imminent danger of being destroyed by the drippings from the roof. Then again no provision has been made Jbr storing the cases and boxes in which the articles are packed, so<he exhibitors witf have to run all over London to find some place to put them, and when a place is found they j will be sure to be charged enough for storage. The better way, it strikes the Courier, will be for the exhibi tors to keep their packing-boxes, to lodge in; for there seems to be a doubt of half the visitors to the world’s fair finding a bed to sleep in, or any thing to eat. After all the difficulties, dangers, and expenses of getting the articles into the glass palace hpve been overcome, then come the real perils of the exhibi tors in their attempt to live in London. (Judging from the reports which the English papers have been publishing during the last three or four months, we must believe that such a thing as pure water, pure tea and coffee, pure milk, pure liquor; or pure anything else but pure extortion and roguery is a clear impossibility in London. We have no superstitions nor prejudices in this mattei|d)ut on the contragy, have always been, taught to regard everything having the stamp of London upon it as the best of the kind. But the London papers, the speeches of members of Parliament, and London literature generally, have dissipated all our early illusions about cockney superiorities' they tell a sombre story of metropolitan villanies, of the de ceptions and frauds of merchants, the thieving practices of lodging-house keepers, the avarice of the rich, the meanness of the poor, and the corrup tions, vices, immortalities, and frauds that are.found in every phase of London life. A few years ago the Literary Gazette, an authority which no En glishman would question, published a series of ar. tides called “ London one Lie,” in which.the ras calities ot cockney tradesmen were so thoroughly exposed that it made one shudder to think what a terrible tragedy life in-London must be, instead of being the jolly farce we had seen exhibited on the stage urider that name. Lately the London Lancet has been engaged in a similar task, as belonging more particularly to its duties as a sanitary journal. ■The last London News in an article on this subject “ It appears that there is scarcely an article that we eat or drink that is not mixed up in some way with inferior substances,'to the injury of our pock ets, or with positive poison, to the ruin of our health. Butcher’s meat, which one would think offers some security against adulteration, is continually sold in a state unfit for food; and the darling wight who ventures upon the purchase and consumption of such articles as, sansages, or dried tongues, not only receives diseased flesh, highly spiced, to conceal the original iniquity of the bargain, but, in the matter of salted tongues, receives lingual abominations of the knacker’s yard. The number of horses’ tongues annually cured, salted, and eaten in England, is frightful. It may possibly be alleged, that horses’ tongues are not unwholesome; but, even in that case, the dishonesty, and the injury remain. Bread, again, weich ought to be thestafl of life and healthy is 100 often mixed up with ingredients both disgust ing and unwholesome. A large percentage of bone dust and lime takes the place of wheaten flour in the loaves that are sold to rich and poor; and dam aged wheat is compounded with a variety of sub stances that improve its colour, and increase its weight, without depriving it of its unwholeso'me ness. Coffee is largely mixed with chichory—not at the low price of the inferior, but at the high price of the superior article—the venders having the impudence to justify the fraud on the plea that chicory is wholesome, and that the public like it. Of fifty-six samples of coffee recently purchased at random in various shops in different parts of London, for the purposes of the exposure vriiich is now going on in the pages of the Lancet,-the mic roscope detected that only five were, genuine. ‘ ( The brown sugars .of'commerce,’ as we learp from the ' same publication, ‘are in general in a state wholly unfit for human consumption, 5 and are likely adul terated with ‘ blood, albumen, fragments' of the su gar-cane, starch ’ granules, lime, lead, iron and grit or sand,’ besides 6warms of sugar acari, or sugar lice, were found in thirty-five. The adulteration of milk is, if possible, even more disgusting. Were it confined to chdlk and water, as in days L of old, the robbery, though gross, would not be -so ( very mis chievous; but when the squeezings of horses’brains from the knackers yard are known to be largely added to the article by the wretches who trade in this fiendish mixture, indignation is largely mingled with a feeling of nausea pnd abhorrence. The ad ulteration of malt liquor is perhaps still more noto rious; and the poisons which are put into beer before as well as after it leaves the premises of the brew ers, give th£ medical'men of the metropolis consid erable extra practice, and adds largely to the gains of the graye-digger and undertaker.” ] ; So, here's the kind of fare our countrymen are invfted to at the great World's Fair. Horses* tongues, sanded sugar, poisoned milk,poisoned ale, poisoned coffee, and poisoned bread;!and hard to be got even such as they are.”—Philadelphia Sun. A College Stampede! There was quite a flare-upat Dickinson College in the beginning of last week, as we learn from the Carlisle papers, growing outol a difficulty between certain members of the Faculty and ia number of the students. It appl&rs that the Jnnior Class ex pressed a desire to attend the funeral of a highly respectable citizen of the Borough, and requested a postponement of their recitations for* that pur-, pose. This w6s denied them by two o‘f the Pro fessors. The young men, however, attended the funeral, cbntrary to the wishes of the Professors— for doing which they were brought up before the Faculty, and quite a large number of them expelled, A great excitement was the consequence, and serious inj ary to the College was anticipated.— The whole matter, it was finally referred to the Hon. James Buchanan, who happened at the time to be in Carlisle, and throughhis influence a reconciliation was effected.

The Democracy of this county appointed their delegates oh Tuesday last, and instructed them for Hon. James Buchanan, for President; Col. Samuel W. Black, for Governor; Gen. Seth T.

"" ‘We never knew a candidate - for a public office so popular with the mass of the Democratic party as this gentleman. There Is hardly £ dissenting, voice ogaiiirt him—he appears to have absorbed tiM r a&wtiaiw of thh entire party, and left but a sec ondary poatum intke popular favor to hifl compet itors, for die station in which hia friends appear de termined to plaee him. We do not open a demo cratic exchange without seeing evident signs of a decided preference for Bigler. His. name stands at the head of their editorial columns,* and in those columns, are sentiments expressive of warm attach ment to him, who is decidedly the people’s candi date. We also hear of clubs being established throughout the length and breadth of the State, for the purpose.#!.securing his election—-of meetings assembled enthusiastic in his favor, and among the rank and file of the we can perceive a settled determination to place at the head of our good old Commonwealth this ‘sound? Democrat who is equally for his talents as for his integrity. We have conversed with many ster ling Democrats of our neighborhood, and without a single exception, we find .that Col. Bigler is.’the man of their choice, and with him as their leader and candidate, they feel confident of a glorious triumph in October next No other man inspire such uni versal confidence in the Democratic ranks. True it is, there are many oiher men in our« party who could be successful at next election for theguberna* torial chair—Democratic principles must under .the leadership of any good man—but Bigler pre-eminently can satisfy the. entire Democratic party, and secure the overwhelming majority bf former days. —Sunbury Gazette. A Kilkenny Cat Fight—Rascality Exposed, We have received a pamphlet of nearly one hun. dred pages—entitled “ The Charges against the Collector and Surveyor of the Port of Philadelphia.” It embraces the reply of Charles Gibbons, Esq., to the argument of DaVid Paul Brown, Esq., with an Appendix, containing the statement of the Hon. James Cooper, in answer to the Narrative of Col lector Lewis. The whole expose is one of the richest things we have ever read, and as it is an affair entirely among Whigs and Whig officials, we are not all surprised at the mutual charges of falsehood, baseness, perjury, &c, &c., so freely applied to each other. If one-half that is proven against Mr. Lewis by unwilling witnesses, and endorsed by the Hon. Jas. Cooper, be true, he should be hurled from the re sponsible office he holds without a moment’s hesi. tation. The charges of an official character brought against'Messrs. Lewis and Norris, and abundantly sustained by the. evidence, are 1. The Collector of the Port of Philadelphia is guilty of a want of fidelity to the Government, and to the character of the present National Adminis tration, by retaining in the offico of Weigh-mastor a person whom he has always known to.be incom petent for the proper performances of the duties of the said and who stands charged with per jury on the Legislative records of Pennsylvania, a fact well known ( to the Collector at the time that he appointed him to the said office. 2. The Collector and Surveyor of the Port of Philadelphia were instrumental in procuring ficti , tious signatures to certain printed letters addressed to members of the Senate of the United States, ur ging the confirmation of the said Collector whoso name was then before the Senate, and that said signatures were obtained through the W eigh-master, acting in the matter with their knowledge and consent, and that ’said letters were forwarded as genuine letters to certain Senators by the said Col-' lector and Suryeyor of the Port of Philadelphia. To these two charges the evidence is exclusively confined; but there are others brought by Senator Cooper against the* Collector, of a private nature, which, if correct, and we have no reason to doubt their truth, show conclusively that he is totally un worthy. thestation he.occupies. The fight is an interesting one—inasmuch as it shows up .the leaders of Ihe “ decency ” party in a way that must be anything but to the honest and conscientious portion,of their followers. The pamphlet can be seen at this office. 10* Since the above was in type, we learn from the North American that the President, looking upon Messrs. Lewis and Norris as marvellously proper men, has dismissed the charges preferred) and will continue them in office, despite the oppo. sition of Messrs. Cooper, Gibbons & Co. What Next! The Abolitionists ol Boston, not content with their efforts to disgrace that City, by getting up a riot for the purpose of forcibly taking a fugitive slave from his lawful owner, and thus trample un der foot the constitution and laws of the Union, have actually carried their spite against their dis tinguished Statesman, Daniel Webster, so far, on account of his opposition to their views, as to refuse him the use of Faneuil Hall, where it was propo sed'to give-him a public reception. The Boston Courier of Wednesday last has the following notice of this most extraordinary, not to say outrageous proceeding: The citizens of Boston have been for some days in expectation of witnessing a public reception of Mr. Webster by the people of this city in Faneuil liall. On Monday evening, the Mayor and Aider men went into secret session for the purpose of act ing on the following petition : To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Boston. The undersigned respectfully ask the use of iFanouiV Hall, on the 17th of April, 1851, for the purpose of a public reception of the Hon. Daniel Webster, and to consult on tho public good* Signed by George G. Smith, and over 100 other substantial citizens, of both political parties. After some proceedings had taken place in pri vate, the doors were- opened, and the following action on the foregoing petition was reported : Upon tho petition of George G. Smith and others, for the use of Faneuil liall for a public meeting on tho 17,th instant. Resolved, That in view of the recent action of this Board upon other similar applications, and of the present excited state of the public mind, it is inexpedient to grant the use of the Hall for the purposes asked for. ? The vote on the adoption of die resolution stood as follows: Yeas —Aldermon Briggs, Clark, Grant,. Kimball and M unroe. Nays—Aldermen Holbrook, Rogers and Smith. It was not necessary for the Mayor to vote, but it is understood that he declared himself strongly against the resolution. Yesterday afternoon, in consequence of the gen eral excitement occasioned by this, the Mayor and Aldermen met again in secret session, and a pro posal was made to rescind the order. Tho dis cussion which arose upon it was very animated j but it resulted in a refusal of the Board to*recon sider their vote. After two hours, debate Uio ques tion was taken, and it appeared-that there were for rescinding the ResoWo—The Mayor, Aldermen Holbrook, Rogers and Smith—4. . Against reconsidering—Alderman Briggs* Clark, Grant and Monroe—4. Mr. Moses Kimball was present, but would not vote. We do not learn that he assigned any reasons. The public are entirely at a loss to understand this most extraordinary behaviour of the four Al ; dermcn who have thus disappointed the general expectation, and placed themselves in opposition to the wishes of a vast majority, of the inhabitants of this city. We leave the matter without m any further pomment. Inportant Decision. Supreme Coubt ik Basc.—PeifFer vs. the Com monwealth of Pennsylvania.—The plaintiff in error was lately convicted of themurder -of his wife, in Schuylkill county, and sentenced to be hung. The ground relied upon for reversal was, that after the: Jury were sworn, but before the case was opened, the Jury were suffered to separate and go to their homes. This the Supreme Court have now de cided was a fatal error, atlhough the prisoner’s Coun sel consented. The Court say that a prisoner on trial for his life should not.be asked to consent.— That the dllowing a jury so to separate is danger ous. If the accused has powerful iriends, it opens a door for improper influences against the Common wealth. If he is without friends, it enables a pow erful enemy, or public prejudice, to work fearfully against him. A prisoner so situated, if asked his consent that the jury who are to pass upon his life may not be kept confined to; their apartment, dare not deny them, the refusal ot which they might bej tempted-by their, verdict to resent — Judgmentreversed/and the prisoner sent back for another trial. i AbbUUojtisniin Canada. - A New York iTribun^/writ ing from Toronto, gHreran account ofa meeting of the Anti-Slavery Association of Can place, and of the additsiof Mr. George Thompson the English emissary, on the occasion. ? Aa there is no negiro slavery in Canada it may seem a little sarprising, says the Baltimore can, that anti-slavery associations should exist there. For what he asked, are they insti tuted? To what end is their influence to be direct ed? There'is but one 1 answer to these questions, and that isia very obvious one. They are designed to foment and stimulate domestic agitation in the United States, to embroil the different sections of the Union,land if possible to promote its dissolution. That a foreign people dwelling upon our borders should thus interfere with our domestic affaire is a matter of gratuitous affront, and it is a proceeding altogether inconsistent with that good understand ing which'ought to prevail between neighbors who are presumed to be upon friendly terms and mutu ally desirous of preserving such relations. What havo the people of Canada to do with slavery in the United Stales? It is no concern of theirs; they are in no way? responsible for it. If they consider it an evil it is one which does not affect them, nor are they in any manner authorized either by the pos. session ol superior wisdom, or more elevated mor. ality, or by any other gift, to sit in judgement upon the institutions of another people—still less to or ganize and direct hostile influences against them. The impertinent intrusion of the English emissa ry, Thompson, who is now entertaining the Cana, dians with ? systematized calumnies against the American' people—for he denounces both the North and the South—and \yho owes to the public for bearance an immunity from punishment richly de. served, iB likely to be, we fear, the beginning of a series of similar impertinences—unless the nation al sentiment and the self respect of our people rise up in prompt rebuke against such insulting provo cations. It is mortifying to know, however, that this’hireling slanderer found aiders and abettors among American citizens, while a respectable and intelligent Englishman, the editor of the New York Albion, ajwell known English periodical in this country, thus spoke of him: “ The deliberate violation of a solemn and self- imposed trust, justly drawsdown upon the offending party the: anger and contempt of his fellows; and Mr. George Thompson, an unworthy member of the British Parliament, stands unquestionably in this predicament. That Parliament is now in session, and this recreant to bis duties is three thousand miles away, stirring up strife in a foreign country, periling the great cause of liberty of speech, bring ing the name of his countrymen into disrepute, and playing such fantastic tricks before the American public asstamp him a political mountebank. The town of Springfield, Mass., has been the theatre in which he exhibited himself early in the past week, forcing himself upou an' unwilling populace, and recklessly endangering the peace of the town. The man who faces danger, unpopularity and prejudice, at the call ol duty, deserves our highest esteem; but the charlatan who betrays his constituents, turns a deaf ear to the cries of suffering humanity at his own door, and intrudes his spurious philanthropy where it is offensive and useless—resolute though he may be, and gifted with ability—we pronotince such a man to be a public nuisance, and we hon estly believe that ninety-nine out of a hundred En glishmen on this continent will join in the verdict.” But while we find just cause of cgmplaint in the interference of Canadian associations and English emissaries in the domestic concerns of the South, the same reasons which call for a condemnation of them apply also to those of the non-slaveholding* States who pursue a concerted system of hostility against Southern institutions. What is it to these latter if slavery exists in Maryland or Virginia, or any other Southern State? Why should their con sciences be troubled by a thing in which they have no participation, which does not concern them, over which they have no right of control, and in which their meddlesome interference produces no good to any one* but much evil to many? England, we may well understand, would rejoice to see the growing power of this Republic checked—we speak of the more selfish of her statesmen; she would be glad to witness the dismemberment of the Union, and the failure of our great republican experiment. Is it possible that there are Americans who would tak e 'pleasure in beholding the same disastrous result ? Unfortunately there are many who, whether they desire such a result or not, are laboring Bteadily and perseveringly to bring it to pass. Foreign Affairs. The late foreign news gives no new aspect to the face of things in Europe. There is yet no perma nent government in England. The Russell minis, try which still holds place until ri new cabinet can be organized, stands in an awkward position, and does not venture upon any decided measures. The anti-papal bill, so called, has passed to a second reading! in the House of Commons, and will no doubt become a law. It seems to be however, as a bill of no very great efficacy one way or|the other. It is supported by some on the very ground that its operation will be nominal, and nothing moro. The political affairs of France exhibit nothing of special Interest. The crisis in that country will come when the question of the Presidency in 1852 shall call for a settlement. There is no room for a doubt that Louis Napoleok intends to prolong his term of: office, if he can, in despite of the constitu tion. ' His partizans and the journals in his interest are now expatiating upon the hereditary principle as essential to the stability of Government. Ot course they do not apply this reasoning to the claims of the Duke of Bourdeaux—nor to those of the House of Orleans. Their object is to reconcile as well;as they can, the principle of popularelection with that of hereditary succession—a difficult task, yet not without precedent. The Government of the Roman Empire from the time of'Julius Ceasab, illustrates that species of combination—in an ir regular "way indeed, yet still substantially. The nephew succeeded the hero, and the blood of the Ceasabs constituted a popular title to the throne until it was exhausted. It may be that France will repeat the illustration. So says the Baltimore American. Tub Baltimore Murder. —George Long, a negro boy, 13 years old, has been arrested at Balti_ more, charged with the murder of the boy Rumpf and has made a full confession. He says that young IRumpf and him had been spinning top to. gelher ; inthe slaughter house; that little Rumpf lost his top cord r and that he struck him on the head because he could not find it. , He then.hunted for it again, and not finding it, he. beat him on the head with a stone until he was insensible. The bruises on his fingers were caused by hia holding up his hands to keep off the blows. He waß not dead when he left him, and he heard him* still groaning at a lkte hour that night. Several others heard groaning that'night, and thought it was the dogs. The doctors think little Rumpf had life in him twelve hours 'after he was fatally injured. The child was but five years old.

White hill, on Saturday evening'last, and, altht ugh the night was very dark and rainy, the large iront room and the one adjacent were crowded full.— The minutes of the preceding meeting weVe read and unanimously adopted. Dr. N. B. Wolfe then addressed the Association, and spoke at longih of the character atncT public services of Hon. Jakes Buchanan, and tho brilliant administration of the lamented Pol*. *At the conclusion ol his remirks, he read the following patriotic aud truly Pennsyl vania letter, which was responded to with enthu siastic applause: ' j No, IS6, Roiuddtonßow, j> * Philadelphia, April 11,1851; j - ' My Dear Sir: —I wish-it was in my power to visit Columbia with the view of complying ) with your invitation, tendered in behalf of Bigler jClub No. 2, to address that patriotic body of citizens. >- I am already under an engagement to addrcss.Club No. 1, in Lancaster city, on the 2Gth inst., which 1 shall havo to comply with at serious inconvenience. My professional duties aro such as to require my constant'attcndanco here. I must, howover, ;avail myself of this opportunity to say, that I cordially concur in tho object of your association. My ac qnaintanco with Col. Bigler has induced me to forni a high estimate of his talents and business qualifi cations, and to appreciate folly tho prudenco, modesty and manliness that constitute tho leading features of his political character; and I feel jwell convinced, that ho will not only bo nominated by* tho Democratic State Convention in June, but-elcc led by the people next fall to tho Gubernatorial office. What I like about him best, is that 1 believe he has in his hoart the trtrb feeling that should characterize every Pennsylvanian. He has, 1 1 am suro, a disinterested and enthusiastic devotion for tho interests, honor, advancement and historical reputation~ef his native State, not measured 'or in fluenced in any respect by considerations of dollars and cents —by narrow personal prejudices against ; particular men, or by expectations of office.! For let mo say that, while we all have reason tol look with great satisfaction upon tho wealth, the thrift, tho industry and the physical resources pf tho State, we must not forget that tho future prosperity ,j pow er and fame, as well as tho estimation in which it will bo held by the other American States, a|id by all other nations too, will depend in no small de ; groo, upon the moral and intellectual lighj shed over our beloved and honored Commonwealth, by tho genius and illustrious services of our distinguished public men. A Nation or Stale to he truly great, must produce great men. • In History they appear in their characters and services, tho proudest monuments of a nation’s glory. NojW you will allow mo to say that, other than Pennsylvania, u I know of no Slate in the Union that has failed to support and cherish with unanimity its own accom plished Statesmen, and at all propor times to indi cate a determination to advanco them byi their encouragement, approval and support to thonighest honors of tho Republic. Pennsylvania scorns to have had no ambition for tho Presidency, or jdso to have made the fatal mistake that its possession would be worthless. Many -citizens think that Pennsylvania has certain important interests! pecu liar to herself. Is it possible that they do not clehrly perceive that these interests, whatever they may be, might bo secured with some real effect, if Pennsylvania, instoad of consenting as -tlio has heretofore done, to bo tho mero tail of Federal politics, would seek to hold in tho person of !ono of hdr own great and patriotic citizens, tho substantial and lofty power, by which sho might shape events, and give direction to public affairs. » | But I will not detain you longor. I wish to bo understood as sincerely and heartily recognizing the idea of State nationality,‘and that now, and hereafter, no matter what others may do, I am first—always for Pennsylvania. Truly your friend and obedient servant, RO. TYLER. Dr. N. B. Wolfe, Columbia, Pa.

Columbia Correspondence. Columbia, April 20,1851. Friend Sanderson:— lf tho writer in the last Lancasterian had not exhibited so many symptoms of distress, I would have supposed that he had not received a “shot at the Capitol .” His personal attacks upon myself and the gentlemen who fill the offices of “ Bigler Club, No. 2,” very unhappy disposition of mind ; and are only entitled to commiseration or the scenic smiles ot contempt. He is profuse in his catechetical analysis of my political character, and exhibits a ferocious malig nancy and florid impotency, which will comparo with the “viper and file” of tho fabulists JEsop and Phsdues. He has touched me, howover, on one vulnerable point, to whicti l plead guilty, and that is egotism, so far as self respect is concerned, which wilt prevent me from descending to an alterca tionwith a concealed assassin, who has exhibited so much laxity of morals, depravity of heart, and proficiency in the traduction of character. Yours, very respectfully, N. B. WOLFE. Columbia, April IS, 1851 EJilor of Uie Lancaster Intelligencer A Journal: Dear Sir: —“Squib,” a correspondent of the Lancatlerian , pays that portion of tho Democracy of Columbia, who arc associated in the Bigler Club of tliis place, rather a dubious compliment, when he asserts that no intelligent Democrat would accuse either of the gentlemen named in the pro* cecdings of a recent meeting, for having written certain resolutions which they handed in, unless he would agree with Dogberry that “ Education comes by nature.” I? Mr. “ Squib” has been infatuated with the idea that no intelligence exists amongtheworkingclasses, ho liad better give in, for tho impression is erro neous, and ho'will find the young working democ racy as wide awake Ab any skinny Squib W L -ho feasts and rations at the public crib. Dogberry was correct in llie main, when he as serted that "education comes by naturo,” and particularly so if ho implied tlio education of De mocracy. I wroto the proceedings of the last meeting ot the Bigler Club, held on the 6th instant at the public house of VI r. John Slack, Squib’s assertion to the contrary notwithstanding. 1 also wrote, as Secre tary of that meeting, that " Dr. N. B. Wolfe ad dressed the association in his usual happy and elo quent'style for three quarters of an hour, amidst frequent interruptions of applause.*’ What have you to say about it? CHARLES M. STREIN, Secretary Bigler Club, No. 2. Ms. Editor In an article over the signature of " Squib,” in tbe last No. of the Lancasterian, there appears to bo a great deal of beautiful thun der most wantonly wasted. In reviewing the po litical lifo of Dr. Wolfe’, many charges are made— but none sustained. The *" ad captandam ” mode of procedure seems to be all sufficient for some folks. Now, waiving inquisition as to the truth or error of " Squib,” let a little bit of the history of some of our Columbia politicians bo recited to show how very variable such folks sometimes prove — aye, and so plaguey forgetful! Some few years since the now " Apostle of Democracy,” the cyn osure of tho eyes of the unterrified, (if we except in some few cases of strabismus,) was as full of Anti-Masonry as five feet nothing might well be crammed. dont affect his present position at all, at jail! ’ No indeed ! it only goes to prove that "great oaks from littleacorns growl” Then again, a certain " pseudo Modico,” who has since held as many offices in tho Democratic gift as ho could get, and sighed after a great many morq, that ho could not get,—was a “ show-beef” in a Harrison procession, that dragged its weary length through our streets “onco upon a time.}* Mark you sir, a " show-Beef 1*? for wo saw him seated in one of the carriages ourselves, uncapped, bowing as po litely as any Chinese Mandarin in a Tea-shop I All this proves nothing against those very worthy gentlemen !
