llntelligencer & Journal. Lancaster, Novemberl6, 1852. GEO. SANDERSON, EDITOR. c The Printer Wants Money. Now that the Presidential election is over and the Democracy every where triumphant, we hope our patrons will not be offended when we tell I them—we mean those in arrears—that we need I'MONEY badly. Those indebted for subscription, lidvertising and job work, or either, will confer a great favor by paying us what is justly our due.— The approaching Courts will afford a favorable op portunity to many, who cannot come to town,- to send it with their neighbors. Those living out of }he County or State can remit by mail at our risk. Lancaster County Democracy. Many of our exchanges throughout the State are maiming an unusual degree of credit for the man ner in which the Democracy of their respective unties battled for the right in the recent Presi dential election. This is altogether natural, and we find no particular fault with them for so doing; al hough, we presume none of them did more than a simple discharge of that duty which they owed to themselves, their party and their country. But are they entitled to more credit than their neighbors? Do the Democracy of Berks, and Montgomery, and Westmoreland, and Luzerne, and Tioga, and Clari nn, &c. &c., deserve more commenJation for their (gallantry in upholding the flag of Democracy, than their fellow-workers in the good cause in the strong Federal counties of Lantaster, and Alleghany, and Somerset, and Dauphin, and Union, and Lebanon, &c. &c. We think not. Here, in Lancaster county, we have as true hearted and gallant a band of Democrats as ever drew the breath of life. The prom is, that with a Whig majority of five thousand to contend against , and without any thing to hope for, either present or prospective, in the shape of office from the peo ple, they nevertheless enter the contest, year aftei year, and proudly bear aloft their flag despite the rolling surge of Federalism which threatens to en gulph it. And not only do they hold their own and maintain their ground against fearful odds, but they are surely and steadfastly increasing their vote from year to year, and this too, in the face of all the wealth, money and influence of a haughty and domineering foe who have had all the offices at their command for the last twelve or fifteen years. We, therefore, claim for the Democracy of this county at least , as large a share of patriotism, as true a devotion to the men and measures of their party, and quite as much credit, as any of their fellow Democrats in any other county of the State. We ask nothing more,,and shall lay in our claim for nothing less. Cabinet Making-. This seems to be a favorite business at the pres ent time with many of our contemporaries of the press, and "not a few wiseacres pretend to know who will and who will not be the constitutional ad visers of the incoming President. Now this is all labor spent for nought—breath wasted on the desert air. lien. PrEncE is an experienced statesman him self—has been much in public life, and knows in timately the character and qualifications of all our public men. It is fairly to be presumed, therefore, that he will select his own Cabinet, without regard to the cabals or intrigues that may be at work, and bring around him the best and most competent Democrats in the Nation. All attempts to bias his mind for or against any individuals, will fail upon him or we have much mistaken his character, and the pilgrimages that have recently been made or are now making, to Concord, with the view of depreciating any of our own Pennsylvania states men, or prejudicing his mind against them, will all be in vain. He, doubtless, keeps his own coun sels, and will, at the proper time, announce a Cab inet that will at once command the confidence and esteem of the whole country. Democratic Jollification. The Democrats of Strasburg and vicinity intend holding a meeting at the public house of Wm. Ech ternacht, in that Borough, on Saturday evening next, the 20th inst., at ti o'clock, for the purpose of congratulating each other upon the triumphant election of PIERCE and KINO. A Band of Music will be in attendence, and the meeting will be ad dressed by William Mathiot, Esq., James L. Rey. nolds, Esq., Col. Wm. S. Amweg and others. ID — The Democrats of Washington city had a grand celebration on Thursday evening, in honor of the recent victory of the second of November.— An eloquent and patriotic address was delivered by Col. Joirn W. FORNEY, in which itte causes and consequences of the glorious event were ably set forth, and the great future of our country, under Democratic rule, glowingly depicted. No man con tributed more to the recent triumph of Democracy, than Col. FORNEY. His indefatigable and effective labor with the editorial pen, and'on the stump, have won him lasting gratitude from the Democratic masses; and his voice is now most appropriately raised at the Capitol, to swell the shouts of a vic torious people. 11l It is worthy of remark that Clarion County where all the Iron-masters break up about once in every two years, and where Furnaces are sold by the Sheriff at a shilling each—according to Whig accounts—the majority for PIERCE and KING. is larger than ever before given to any Democratic candidate ! So much for the trumped-up falsehoods of Federal Whiggery. One of two things is certain —either the Whigs lied about the matter, or the people of that counry have become heartily dis gusted with the exploded humbug of Protection. 111 The new postage law is now in operation so that the Intelligence? . :an be received through the mail in any part of this State, at only thirteen and a half cents per annum postage, it said postage is paid in advance; but if not paid in advance, 26 cents per annum will be charged. To any part of the United States, out of the State, the posagte, when paid in advance, will be only 26 cents per annum. The postage, therefore, upo z s our paper, ought not to be an objection to any one who may desire to subscribe for it. No postage to subscribers in this county Louis NeroLuoN.—lt is pretty well settled, we believe, that the French Empire will be proclaimed on the 2d of December—that being the anniversary of the great battle of Austerlitz; as well as of the President's coup detat—and that the new Emperor will be crowned with the title of Napoleon The English papers apprehend the worst of conse_ quences from this movement, northe least of which is war, and an attempt to invade and subdue that country, by Louis Napoleon. FRKSILLIN Pizncz is the youngest man who has ever been, elected President of the United States. He is 48 years of age. Washington, John Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, John Quincy Adams and Van Buren, were each 58; Jackson, 62 ; Harrison, GS Taylor, 66 ; and Polk, 50. PITCHING INTO GWEELEY.—The 'Albany Knick erbocker, a violent Whig paper, thus discourses concerning the Tribune man : " So long as the Whig party looks upon Greeley as one of the fathers of the church, and takes eve rything he utters for gospel, so long may they ex pect to stand where they now do—among the "used up" and annihilated. General Scott was not de feated by the Democrats, but by the New York Tri bune. The leaders which that paper is I constantly gating out on pig iron, temperance and satinet, would crush another WASHINGTON." fl - 3" The MilwaukieFree Democrat places the tiathe of Jona lime at its head, for the nex I),Etnidentiul campaign, and mays that it will floe time U. ~rat tout yenta. A Whig Blunder (Exposed The Independent Whig pitches into the Silver Greys like a thousand of brick' and blames them with being the main cause of Gen. SCOTT ' S inglo riolis defeat. It may be that Rime of the Fillmore and Webster men gave the old hero the cold shoul der in consequence of his Abolition antecedents and affinities, and we think they 'showed their good sense and patriotism by doing so ; but that they were the real cause of his overwhelming defeat, we do not believe. The truth of the matter is—the Whig leaders, whether known as Silver Greys or- Woolly Heads, have, by their conduct during the last four years, proved themselv i es to be totally un fit to manage the complex aff-irs of the govern ment, or to protect the honor and interests of the country in our intercourse with foreign nations.— They do not appear to have had any administrative qualities, and seemed wholly inient upon degrading our own position as a nation, and running riot with the spoils and plunder of the Trhasury. The Amer ican people have been quiet, htlt prying witnesses of all this, and they were determined that there should be an end to the blunde i ring diplomacy and the Galphinism and Gardinerient of Federal Whig gery. 'Tie true, had Mr. Fillmere been selected as the candidate, he might not hate met with so total a route, for he would not have made such a con summate fool of himself as Gen. Scott did by trav elling over the.tountry begging votes, an'd, in addi tion, his patriotic course on the Compromise ques tion would have gained him many friends ; but his defeat would have been none fhe less certain, as would have been the case with any Whig cantli• date who could have been named. The people of this country are essentially Democratic in their feelings and sympathies; and, besides, the mas ses are honest and intelligent. They may be oc casionally deceived, as they were in the elections of 1840 and 1848, but they soon hasten to correct the error, and hurl the deceivers from the power they so outrageously abuse. There were other causes, dOubtless, which oper ated against the Whig party; but the above, we opine, were the principal ones—and we speak of them now for the especial benefit of the Indepen dent Whig and its coadjutors of the Woolly Head and Silver Grey press. The rhig party, as such, has descended to the tomb of all the Capulets. It is literally dead and buried, and all the galvanic apparatus of the entire Federa!l press of the Union cannot restore it to life or anilnation. To use the prophetic language of Daniel Webster, once its • most gifted leader, it lives only in history, and will • never more be known or recognized as a political party. Sic transit gloria mundi. lion. James C We take the following excellent article from a late number of the Montrose Democrat. It por trays the character of the Hon. James Campbell so truthfully and faithfully that sse give it to our read ers. We cannot but admire, now that the contest is over his noble and indefatigable exertions during the late State and National canv a ss. His conduct has been such as will endear him strongly to the true and unflinching Democracy of Pennsylvania in all time t o come, and shows him to be far above the narrow and contracted selfishness that has govern ed the conduct of some wobld;be great men: HON. JAMES CAMPBELL. It often affords us useful instruction to which the movements of dif ferent individuals, especially in the political world, and endeavor to judge from their actions of the mo tives and inducements that sway and control them. There is, at the present day, so much of utter sel fishhess in the political arena.; so loud professions of attachment to principles : that prove to be pro fessions merely, where personal ambition is disap pointed—that it relieves us somewhat from the un happy opinion we might otherwise form of politi cal men generally, when we find in a man such manifestations of pure attachinent to principle as is exhibited in the person of Hon. James Campbell. We do not believe that there can be found another man in this whole country, if indeed such an one can be found in the whole past political history of the country, who has exhibited such resplendent, self-sacrificing devotion to his political sentiments, as he has. Struck down as he was, last fall, by the most unholy combination; no one had reason to expect aught from him but coldness and indiffer ence, if not overt opposition. True, he was nobly sustained and fully vindicated lby the great heart of the Democracy of the State, and would have been triumphantly elected but for the corrupt combina tions of Philadelphia; liti(men i in defeat are apt to consider that simply, and not ;th e cause. But this was not the case with Judge Campbell. Rising high above all personal feeling of disappointment, in the contest just past, he threw himself in the breach to turn back the retaliatory blow; and, re. gardless alike of personal ease, pecuniary advan tage, or natural obligation, devoted himself to the success of the Democratic party, with an energy and purpose never before witnessed. The obstacles he has encountered, and the exertions he put forth, seem almost superhuman; and when we say that the Democracy of Pennsylvania are more indebted to him, for their success, thah to any man or set of men in the Commonwealth, we are but doing him faint justice. We admire that man, Judge Campbell; and not .dge _ ...; the man merely, but his noble and virtuous actions. He labors from principle from a high sense of affec tion and duty to his CommonWe'alth and his coun try. The selfishness of the mere politician is not found in him, but the spirit of a patriot is every where exhibited by his life and actions. Would that Pennsylvania, and the country, had more such men to control their politics Governor Bigler The Pennsylvanian says, with much truth, that the high toned, able and arguinentative speeches of Gov. BIGLEIL during the recent campaign, at York, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and other places in the in terior of our State,. have secL.ed him a still firmer place in the affections of the Democaatic masses than he ever held before. While his efforts have materially contributed to the brilliant triumph just achieved, wherever he has gone his noble and mag nanimous bearing gave to the truths he uttered a force and power that seldom failed to carry convic tion to the minds of all who heard him. It was truly a triumph for the Dem, cracy of Pennsylva nia to witness the hearty and, enthusiastic reception the Governor of their choicemet with by assem bled thousands in a sister State, and the earnest at tention paid to his eloquent address by the congre gated masses of the Democ4cy of the Monumen tal City during his late visit among them. The old Keystone may well be proud of her noble exec utive, and the exalted position she is yet destined to attain through this vigorous exertions her in be half. r - Commissioner of Patents. The Washington papers announce the fact that the Hon. Thomas Ewbank has resigned the office of Commissioner of Patents, and Silas Hodge, of Vermont, been appointed in his place. We feel confident that a Pennsylvanian should be selected to fill this office hereafter. Eastern men, Messrs. Burke, Ewbank, and others,have given to the East ern,' States the credit of ha l ing the most ingenious inventors, whilst for some years past about the lar gest number of applications for patents have been forwarded from Pennsylvania. Should it fall upon a Pennsylvanian, we know of none more competent to fill the office of Commissioner of Patents than our friend, Col. J. FaArriatr.t REIGAILT, ofLancas tei. city. He is a practical engineer and draughts man, and the numerous paents he has procured for many inventors are evidences of his perfect knowl edge of the business of the Patent Office. We have with much pleasure noticed of late that the "Scien tific American," of New York, a paper devoted to scientific subjects, and the weekly business of the Patent Office, has, with oth r papers throughout the Union, represented Col. Reigart's abilities for that station in the most fiatterin manner, and we hear tily join in the recommendation. , We clip the above complimentary notice of our townsman, from the Baltimore dirgill of Tuesday last. It is scarcely necessary for us to say that we concur in opinion with our Baltimore con temporary, as to Col. REro.frr's qualifications for the office alluded to, and are pleased to find that his merits . are duly appre r elated abroad. Should Pennsylvania receive the appointment from Presi dent Prance, we have no doubt Col. R. would fill the station with energy and industry, and bring to the discharge of its citifies a practical knowl edge of its details. o . 137" Hon. GEo. R. Bann elected to Congress, from t a majority of 'ln votes. For Cot lotelllvacet. Mn. SANEDEVON:—SeveraI times during the late Campaign my attention was directed to certain articles published in the Lancasterian, charging a want of organization of the Democratic Party of this county. I did not contradict them at the time, because I felt satisfied that the election would fur nish the most ample proof of their falsity. The State and Presidential elections. have been held and my anticipations have been more than re alized. Under all circumstances the Democracy of Lancaster county have done as well at both elec tions as that of any other.county in the State. The Demoeratic increase of this County from 1844 to 1848 was only 137, while in the four years immediately following, viz: from 1848 to 1852 it was 488. But the hig majority in 1848 was 5310 and in 1852 it was reduced to 5058, making a gain for us of 252 votes, which added to the in crease of the Democratic vote, gives to the Demo cratic party a gain of 750 votes in four years in the strongest Whig Connty in the Union. Again the vote for Gov. Bigler last year was large be yond expectation, yet in a single year we have in creased 352 votes. Pierce and King received 352 more votes in Lan caster County than were ever before given to a Democratic Candidate—even to Andrew Jackson when he carried this County by 1500 majority. At These are facts over which every Democrat info the County has a right to exult. While the whole Country was ringing wall shouts of joy upon the election of Pierce and King and the Democracy of the county were congratula-; ring themselves upon the victory, when it might be expected that factional bitterness for a brief period atej least, would be allayed, the Lancasterian of Wedneoo day last, devotes several of its column to abuse 000 the regularly appointed Committees of this Count*. A falsehood persisted in and not contradicte , O sometimes passes for a truth, and I am therefor: compelled to notice it. It was my fortune to be Chairman of the Count ty Committee for about seven years; and I may - 0 therefore be presumed to know something aboux, our organization. I have no hesitation in statinoo that greater efforts were made and more zeal anoo activity displayed during this Campaign by thoo regular Committees, than I have ever known beforoo It is manifestly improper publicly to state whip° these exertions were, it is sufficient to say that tl2 O usual efforts were made to bring out the vote, arv ° I others besides. 00 The Editor of the Lancasterian seems to have po very imperfect idea of what is meant by organk pp lion. While censuring the Committee he wet( 00 " those who labored long and who are now soug 00 to be robbed of the credit," &c. Does he imagi Do that the several Committees alone are to work? , Oo On the contrary every Democrat In the County 00 expected to labor for the Party, whether placed c o ° a Committee or not. The Committees can do but IT ) tie without the aid of the active men of Party.g the late campaigns, as far as my knowledge extendj o the Township Committees did their duty, the a4 O tive men not on Committees did their whole dutm and neither could or would rob the other of credo° justly earned. 0 The Democracy of the Townships select tbeio own Committees, and as a Democrat I have bed° accustomed to believe that the People of the Deng ) ocratic Party are competent to select all their se' vents. The Editor of the Lancasterian may, if chooses, charge them with having made impropr i _ appointments, but I am not disposed to unite wo n him in any such wholesale accusa , ions. a I have thus, in behalf of the several committe., e replied to the general charge of a want of orgaler zation; but the Editor of the Lancasterian makef several specific charges of neglect of duty on tr. part of the Chairman of the County Committ; which it is my duty individually to answer. Di ing a long and arduous service, I fancy that I h a d gained some little reputation for zeal and fideli to the interests of the party, which I do not car, to be robbed of by the ignorant or unscrupuloy The first charge is in these words: Why w it that you complained of the non-receipt of Do. ments when you knew that documents had la printed by the National Committee for your use Now, sir, I deny that any Democrat in Lincast4 county had any reason to complain on that gromF A large supply of documents of different kinds v. procured and sent to the country. No one cols.. ask for them and meet with a refusal. or But before the Editor of the Lancasterian took to criticise the conduct of any one, he shoux have made himself familiar with the facts of •Y" case. Now the truth is that but a very se rn , , , number of documents were furnished by the I tional Committee l to the Chairman of the Cow in Committee, for gratuitous circulation in Lancas county. But it is true that a few Democrats the city and vicinity (of whom the Editor of t Lancasterian was not one, or he would have know I the fact) raised a sum of money and purchased very large number of documents, which were gel e:ally circulated among the people by the owner, of them. As one of the contributors, I receive,' my share of these documents, as, also, a few through the post office, from the National Commit tee, all of which were distributed. So much for this charge. Another complaint is, that the tickets were not distributed at the October election. For the infor-, mation of the Editors of the Lancasterian, it mays be well to state, that the custom always has been - to have the tickets printed about two weeks before the election, when the announcement is made by Tr HE undersigned, being desirous of relinquish .the'at a reduced price, the stock in her TRIMMING Democratic papers of the tact, and those desk., 1 ing her business, now offers at private Bale, imme diately Oft F., d en the corner of West King street, ing them are invited to call at the office of the With a th j e oi e n t i o ng k th a e nd iMa fi rket House. Chairman of the County Committee to procure e best elands the occupancy of supply. In case the Democrats of any District the store, one Of : the omit to call for their tickets, a special messenger be had immediately, or at Zell ' periods city, can is sent out to supply them. This was precisely the course pursued preview, this and the first of April as may suit the purchaser. to the October election, with this exception that thei ' Terms or payment will be made easy. For fur- Editor of the Lancasterian neglected to notice in ; thee particulars enquire of his paper the fact that the tickets were ready for, REBECCA M'CONOMY: distribution. Tickets were either taken or sent out 4t-42 to every Ward, Borough and Township of the coun ty at least four days before the election. If any;; mistake occurred afterwards it was no fault of mine Bnt it seems with all his vigilance that the Editor; can discover only a single instance to afford the groundwork of a complaint,and that is in Elizabeth Township. He tacitly admits that forty-four ci the Districts were properly supplied, but because a mistake occurred in one District, he argues a wart of organization, etc. It is not true however that Elizabeth township was unsupplied with tickets.— Two weeks before the election, John Elser Esq., a veteran Democrat of that township, wrote ' for tick ets and they were sent to him by mail. A large supply was also given to L. R. Hibshman, the Mem ber of the County Committee for that township.— Tickets for Pennville—the new district, were also sent to Dr. Levi Hull and by him delivered. A number of tickets were also sent to an active Dem ocrat residing in the same district—so that every effort was made on my part, and if from the mis takB or misapprehension of those entrusted with tickets there was a short supply at the Elizabeth Poll, it would have been an easy thing to send a person to a neighboring district and in an hour to procure any number of tickets. The same charge is repeated in reference to the distribution of tickets before the Presidential elec tion, but in this case the Borough of Washington is the solitary - instance of neglect. Now what is the gross neglect of duty here? That from some ac cident the tickets for Washington Borough did not reach their destination until Sunday evening or Mon day morning previous to the election. What a gross neglect of duty on the part of the Chairman of the County Committee! But I fear such accidents will frequently occur, until the Chairman is furnished with sufficient funds to enable him to employ a ri der to take the tickets to each district. The delay in this case to easily explained. On Thursday afternoon previous to the Presidential election, the Tickets had been taken away or sent to every district except Millerstown and Washir g ton Borough. In order to get the subject of tickets off my mind and enable me to attend to other ditties, late on Thursday evening I drove out to Millerstown and gave the tickets for Washington Borough to A. Peters, Esq., the Elector for Lancas ter county, and who resides in the same township in which Washington is situated, who promised to send them to John A. Brush, Esq., at Washington. The messenger dispatched by Mr. Peters left the package at Mr. Mann's tavern to be forwarded, but it did not reach its destination until Sunday even ing or Monday morning. If I understand the Editor of the Lancasterian he wishes to convey the idea that on account of the singular neglect inthe distributionof tickets it became necessary for him to print and distribute 10,000 tickets. If this be his meaning it is untrue. One of the Editors of the Lancasterian came to my of , Tice on Wednesday or Thursday previous to the Presidential election, and in the course of conversa tion was informed that with one or two exceptions the tickets had been distributed through the county? Another of the Editors came down on the same day and requested a few tickets to furnish persons from the county who applied to him. He receiv ed several hundred tickets, and was told that when he wanted more he should step down to my office and he could get them. Why then was it neces sary to print 10,000 tickets, when by walking a square he could procure as many as he desired ? The simple answer is, that if he had got the tick ets from my office he would have deprived hinfself of the glorious opportunity of shewing his devotion to the party by announcing the startling fact that he had printed 10,000 tickets for the Democracy of Lancaster County. What a pity all these tick ets did not find their way into the ballot boxes on the day of the election! At both the State and Presidential elections 25,- 000 tickets were printed; they were kept at my of lice and furnished to every Democrat who desired mpbell a (Dem.) has been re be State of Delaware, by them. At each election more than 21,000 tickets were Eent and taken away. So that it would seem the 10,000 in Buckram of the Lancasterian were quite unnecessary. I have thus replied to these charges at greater length than I had intended, but I felt it was due to the Democracy of the county to repel them. The office of Chairman of the County Commit tee is one of great responsibility,and requires much expense and labor. It was with great reluctance that I consented to serve this year, but having once accepted, I determined that no pains or expense shovld be spared on my part to merit the confi dence reposed in me. The whole County Commit tee was influenced by the same considerations. And the Committee will retire from office at the end of their year with the cansciousncss of having faith fully, zealously and successfully discharged their duty to the Party, and with the proud satisfaction of knowing that during their year of office, the De mocracy of Lancaster County gave to their candi d ates a larger vote by upwards of 350 than they Lad ever before polled, and that the increase in the strength of the Party was far• greater than during the term of any former Committee.

ALFRED Nacia, Pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church of this city, has recently is sued a work, entitled the "Churches of the Valley or an Historical Sketch of the old Presbyterian Con. gregations of CuMberland and Franklin Coon ties,' , in this State. It is a work fraught with interest not only to Presbyterians, but to Christians or every . denomination, containing as it does much interest ing matter connected with the state of religion in the Cumberland Valley, and the organization of the early Churches in that interesting part of our State. The Presbyterian contains the following notice of Mr. Nevin's work: We really thank Mr. Nevin for this t aluable and deeply interesting contribution to our ecclesiastical history. We read the records of these gld churches with mingled feelings of pleasure and melancholy. The latter feeling alone prevailed, as we read the well written sketch of Rocky Spring Church, now dilapidated and almost deserted, its former occu pants passed into the eternal world, and their pos terity moved away to mak&i,place for those who disregard the doctrines and worship of our Church. The thought was suggested—should not Christians, in settling the question of emigration, ask them selves, if it be their duty to remove, when a removal may prove a death-blow to the church in which their lathers worshipped? And that populous and neglected grave-yard! we felt, like "Old Mortality," a strong desire to go thither, and set up the fallen tombstones; and re-chisel their inscriptions. THE NEW YORK CRTSTAL PALACF..—The ground plan of the building forms an octagon, and will be surmounted by a Gieek cross, with a dome over the intersection. The extreme length and breadth of the building are each 365 feet. Height of dome to top of lantern, 148 feet. Entire space on ground floor, 111,000 square feet. Galleries 62,000 square feet.

PENNSTLVANIA RAILROAD.—The section of the Fennsylvania railroad near Greensburg, where there is ten miles of staging, is to be completed and opened to-day. This will make a continuous rail road between Philadelphia and Pittsburg, and Pitts burg and Cincinnati, which will add greatly to the comfort of travelers. We are also gratified to learn that an arrange ment has been made between the company end Messrs. Bingham & Dock, by which passengers' baggage is not changed between:Philadelphia and Pittsburg. This is, therefore, now one of the most pleasant routes to the west, and we trust it may receive its full share of the travel. ED' Pm Ines, was sold in Pittsburg, on Wednes day last, for $4O per ton.

To thine own self be true; And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou can'st not then be false to any man, In response to the above sentiment, M r . Boca- ANAN replied in the following remarks-, I am a Pennsylvanian, in heart and soul; and whatever can advance the interest or promote the glory of my good old native State, God bless her! shall ever find in me a devoted advocate. I am proud of my State ; and State pride springs from that commendable and natural feeling—that love of our native land which Heaven, for the wisest purposes, has implanted in the human breast: "Breathes there the man, with soul so dead, Who never to himself bath said, This is my own, my native land ! Whose heart bath never within him burned, As home his footsteps he hath turned, From wandering on a foreign strand ft , The citizens of Pennsylvania ought in my opin ion, to cherish this sentiment of State pride more than they have ever done heretofore. We have never properly appreciated ourselves. This noble sentiment, however, should never degenerate into harsh, jealous, or unfriendly feelings towards our sister States. Far, very far from it. But it ought to impel us to a generous rivalry with them for the palm of excellence in every thing which can ad vance our physical prosperity--in every thing which can elevate, enlighten and adorn the human character. Under our complicated but unrivalled form of government, state .pride has become the truest pa triotism towards the whole Union. It is eminently conservative of cur Federal Republican Govern ment. What we have most to dread is the centrali zation of unconstitutional political powers in the Federal Government; and the indulg"nce of a well regulated State pride, throughout.the confederacy, will always preserve, us from this abyss. As our territory extends—as we rapidly advance in power and wealth—as the patronage and expenditures of the Federal Government increase, the natural ten dency becomes greater and greater to accumulate power at the centre of our system. But whilst thirty one State sovereignties, proud of their power and jealous of their rights. shall con tinue to resist all encroachments from the General Government, they will ever preserve the just bal ance between Federal and State authority. So long as this balance shall be held with a steady hand, neither the Constitution nor the Union will ever be in danger. But let the pride and the power of the State severeignties pass away—let them be reduced to mere provincial corporations, dependent upon the Federal government, and then the centraliza tion of all powers at Washington, in fact, if not in form, will inevitably follow ; and thus the anima ting life and soul of our institutions will have tied forever. What but centralization at Paris has rendered abortive every attempt, for the last sixty years, to maintain free republican institutions in France Had she converted her ancient provinces into sover eign States, with State governments, such as we en joy, and established a Federal Republic, a coup d'etat at the. Capital could never have destroyed her snccessive free Constitutions. Liberty would then have taken refuge under the wing Of the State gov ernments, and would have been protected by their power until the storm had passed away. Paris would then no longer have been France. Under our system at the present moment, nothing could be so supremely ridiculous as an attempt to make a coup d'etat at Washington. State pride ought ever to cherish the Senate of the United States, as the selected protector under the Federal,Constitution of State sovereignty. This is a body far more important, powerful, and august than was ever the celebrated Amphictyonic Council of Greece. Among our sister States, and through out the world, the intelletual and moral character of , each State in the Union is, and must be, to a great degree, estimated by the standard of the Sen ators whom she has selected to represent her sover eignty. I have often observed with what intense feelings of pride the citizens of Kentucky have in the Senate Chamber pointed to their Clay—the cit izens of Massachdeetts to their Webster—the citi zens of Smith Carolina to their Calhoun, and the citizens of New York to their Wright. Alas! these intellectual giants, like all things human, havepas sed aWay. There is no State in the Union which can more justly indulge in feelings of State pride than Penn sylvania. Our enlightened, persevering and truly christian founder, immediately after he had obtain ed the Royal charter, declared, in the spirit of pro phetic enthusiasm: "God will bless and make it the seed of a nation. I shall have a tender care of the Government, that it be well laid at first." And truly God has blessed it, and the seed which Wil liam Penn sowed has borne the richest fruit. We have already become a powerful and prosperous na tion; and united with thirty other confederate States, we have formed a Federarßepublic which is the ' admiration of the world and the Satr of promise in the West to millions of down trodden men through out the old world who are panting for the liberties which we. enjoy, Besides, Pennsylvania is truly the Keystone of the Federal Arch; and our char acter and position peculiarly qualify us to become the mediator between opposing extremes. Placed in the centre, between the North and the South, with a population distinguished for patriotism, steady good sense, and a devoted attachment to the ' Coostitution and the Union, we stand as the days ; man between the extremes, and can declare with a , potential voice to both, "hitherto shalt thou go, but no further." It was from the Legislature of this great end glorious old Commonwealth that the first ray of light emanated to dispel the deep gloom in which the' slavery question had involved our coun try. The heaven-born principle of religious liberty ,t s with which our founder was i pi ed, has been al ways carried into practice in ylvania. From the beginhing, every man has joyed the natural right of worshipping his God according to the dic tates of his own conscience. No bigot or despot has ever been suffered impiously to assume the attri butes of Deity, and to interpose and prescribe the form in which man shall worship his Creator. Although there are events in our history which we may have cause to regret, yet, taken as a whole, the State has always been well and wisely govern ed. "By their fruits ye shall know them," is a rule dictated by divine authority. Judging according to this standard, where shall we find a people on the face of the earth—where has there ever existed a people more prosperous and snore happy than are the people of Pennsylvania - at the present moment? Agriculture, manufactures and commerce are all in a flourishing condition. Labor every where finds profitable employment . Every where a fair day's work commands a fair day's wages. We have no poor amongst us, except the victims of idleness or misfortune; and to relieve the unfortunate, we have a greater number of benevolent institutions than any of our sister States. The teeming bowels of our soil have been explored by the hand of enter prise and industry, and our vast mineral treasures are carried to our own markets and those of the world over the railroads and canals which have been constructed in all directions by the wealth and public spirit of our fellow-citizens. Nor have we confined ourselves merely to the development of our physical resources. Every child born in the Com monwealth enjoys the same right to a good com mon school education that be does to breathe the vital air, and everywhere temples arise for the wor ship of the Most High, erected by the volukary contributions of a Christian people. . Why,should we not then, in the languago of your toast, cherish 'State pride, State fidelity, and State fraternity?" In politics, from the very nature of man,-and of our free institntions,we must necessarily differ; but throughout the vast range of subjects on which we have, a common feeling and common interest for our good old State, why should we nut cordially' fraternize , The city of Philadelphia and the interior of the State are bound together by the strongest bonds of mutual interest. In this respect they are inseparible. The one is essential to the prosperity of the other. Let not this be the harsh bond of ‘ mere cold and calculating interest,'but let it be the happy union of mutual kindnes and af. tectiiin. 8.628,6'29 6,294,728 , $407,876,096 $14,721,541 $330.398 $2,259 $530,221 $61,527 $562,195 $1,822,357 $1,040,366 $31,500,053 13,367,691 ' 4,305,160 19,835,214 It cannot be denied, though it is to be deplored, that mutual jealousies, to some extent, have hith erto existed between the city and the country.— These would pass away like the mists of the morn ing before the rising sun, if the people of both knew each other better. The citizens of Philadel phia do not generally visit the interior of their own State as much as we from the country ardently de sire, or as often as the citizens of New York and Baltimore visit the interior of their respective States. Come more frequently amongst us, and you will find that for cordial, genuine, heartfelft hospi tality—for magnificent, grand and sublime scenery, Pennsylvania is not inferior toany State through out the Union. Like quarrels between man and wife, there have been, doubtless, faults on both sides. Let us forget and forgive what may have been wrong in the past of either, and determine that hereafter the bonds of mutual, affection shall be much stronger than those cemented alone by avarice and interest. For my own part, so far as I may possess any influence, I shall use my best exertion to bring about this con summation, so devoutly to be wished. "State pride, State fidelity, and State fraternity," now and forever! Er A Democratic Jollification and Supper wi come of/ atVoganville, on Saturday afternoon flex Arrival of the Glasgow. LATE FROM EUROPE. The steamer Glasgow, Capt. Craig, from - gow, arrived at New York on Wednesday after noon, at 3 &lock, having sailed on the 26th ult.— She brings London dates to the 25th. The steamship Canada arrived at Liverpool on the 24th. ENGLAND The funeral of the Duke of Wellington is fixed to take place on the 18th instant. Bristol has been made the port of departure for the steamers 01 the New Orleans Steamship Com pany, to run to Australia, and, it is believed, also to America. Land has been purchased in Hyde Park, on which to erect the new National Gallery, at a cost of $1,000,000. The clipper ship Chrysolite, arrived at Liverpool , on 22d from Whampoa, after a quick passage of 104 days. The Chrysolite has brought the first cargo of the new crop of teas. The Chrysolite sailed from Whampoa in company with clipper ship Stornoway, for London, and the two ships kept in sight of each other for 43 days. An antislavery meeting was held at Glasgow, on the 25th, in the F. P. Church, to take measures to redeem a mother and seven children from Ameri• can slavery. The family it was proposed to re. deem; is that of John Weems. Rev. H. Garnet, (colored) was the principa4opokesman on the oc casion, but it does not appear how much money was collected. FRANCE The Moniteur publishes a decree of the President, granting a credit of 20,000 livres, for the expense of appropriating the Pantheon to the purposes of religious worship. It is rumored that the President, alter the delib erations of the Senate are concluded, intends ma king the tour of the Northern Departments of Prance. Preparations for his reception are already making at Amiens. M. Dc Thiers has not been consulted us to the new . Ministry of Belgium. Considerable anxiety exists in Puris , in regard to the matter of the Ministry. The Aloniteur does not as yet contain the long talked of, and, it must be said, impatiently expect ed, decrees for the reduction of the army and for the amnesty, but it is stated that the reduction of the army:is a question decided upon land that the re duction will be double what has been already sta ted—that is, that not less than 13,00 u men will be released from military service. The amnesty will not, it is feared, he as compre hensive as has been stated, and it is not at all im probable that exceptions will be made in the case of those who are considered as personally inimical to to Louis Napoleon, and that amongst others Gen. Changarnier. will be one of the principal. A difference has arise' , as to the title of the fu ture Emperor. Those cven .mongst his partisans who would desire to see his rule established with out affording new grounds for discontent to foreign goVernments, preter that the title should be Louis Napoleon I ; whilst some 01 his more zealous friends who are perhaps more Bonapartist than the Presi dent himself, insist upon his right to assume that of Napoleon 111, and they instance the case of Louis XVIII, though a Louis XVII never wore the crown of France. The former deny that the cases ale siim The rumors in favor of the son of the Prince of Canino being chosen as the heir presumptive to the crown have acquired much consistence.

Late from Mexico Revolutionary Illoventents—Government 'Troops Join tug the insurgents—Plot to Assassinate the Presi. dent—Arrival at Vera Cruz of. Adze Conklin and the American Commission. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. loth An arrival from Vera Cruz brings dotes to the 3d inst., and from the city of Mexico to 28th ult. Senor Yanesee has accepted the post of Minister of Foreign Relations. The Senate has rejected :he proposed amnesty to the Vera Cruz insurgents. A - proposition has been introduced into Congress for a loan of $3,000,000, to be raised at not exceed ing 3 per cent. a month, for the reestablishment of order. A proposition was also made to increase the di. rect contributions of the States. Orders have been issued for the arrest of General Urega, but he he has not yet been taken. The revolutionary moveuients at Guadalajara are more formidable than ever. The new plan proposed is to convoke a Conven tion to relorm the Constitution and elect a new President. A call is made upon Santa Anna to re turn, and Generals Uraga and VelaNuez were each, in succession, requested to head-the movement, but they have refused to take part in it. The impeachment brought against Senor Aguirre, Minister of Justice, was for allowing the exporta tion of the specie belonging to the British creditors, without paying the usual duty. A plot has been discovered by Senor Ramirez at Marino, which had for its object the assassination of President Arista. Nothing had transpired with regard to the Te huantepec proposals. The U. S. Steamship Powhatan, Commodore Newton, had arrived at Vera Cruz, with Judge Conk lin on board, who was preparing to proceed to the city of Mexico. The steamship Fulton had also arrived, having on board the U. S. Commissioners appointed to ex amine the Gardiner claim. The revolutionary movements continue to pro gress, and it is reported tnat some of the Mexicali government troops had joined the insurgents. A plot to assassinate the President had been dis covered. NATUIIALIZLTION Laws.—The Albany Argus gives the following summary of the laws on the subject of naturalization Any alien who shall have arrived in the United States under the age of 18 years, and who shall have continued to reside therein to the time he makes application to be admitted to citizenship, may, after the age of 21, and after a residence of years, including his minority, be admitted a citizen, without having previously made a declaration of of intention to become such citizen: provided he makes declaration of intention at the time of his admission, and furnish proof of residence, &c. The children of persons duly naturalized under any of the laws of the United States, being under the age of 21 at the time of their parents being so naturalized or admitted to the rights of citizenship, shall, it dwelling in the United States, be considered as citizens of the United States. Previous to 1548, no person arriving in the L ni ted States after the year 1515, could become a cit izen, who had not for the continued term of five years next preceding hi: admission, resided therein, without being at any time oat of the territory there of. This law was repealed in 1545. The children of person,: naturalized, as mentioned above, on arriving at the age of :21 years, may vote without having received a ce.tdicate of naturaliza tion, EXTENSIVE ROHllgliir rs POTTSVILLE.—OrI Sat uraay night week, the jewelry store of Mr. George Heaton, at the corner of Centre and Market streets, in Pottsville, was entered some daring villains, and robbed of watches and jewelry to an amount exceeding two thousand dollars.
