Money Wanted.
We need money badly at the present time ; and
as we have a large amount standing on oar books
for subscription, advertising and job work, we
should be pleased to see any number of our pa
trons step up, or down, as the ease may be, to the
"Captainli office" and settle their accounts• Of
course this hint is not intended for those (and we
have a goodly number of such) who are always
prompt in paying the Printer.
An Apology.
Our time, for several days past, has been entire
ly taken up in moving and getting. fixed' in our
new quarters, consequently we have been. unable
to give much attention to the paper. Our readers
will, therefore, know how to make allowance for
any omissions or imperfections that may be appa
rent in this number.
Appointment.
Governor Ligon, of Maryland, has reappointed
Col. J. Fasaisma Rzto..n-r, of this city,Cotnmis
'Loner, with authority to take acknowledgement of
Deeds, Mortgages, Letters of Attorney, or any wri
ting under seal to be used or recorded in -the State
01 Maryland. Col. R. held the office under the late
Governor Lov,e, and his re-appointment is no less
complimentary to our townsman than kited and ju-
dicious on the part of the new Executive of Mary
land.
The Census.
Any suggestions which may be induced by nn
examination of the tables of the United States Celt
sus, for this county,,shouid beforwarded at an early
day to Mr. Dc Bow, Superintendent of the Census
office at Washington, with a view to the correct
ness of other Publications from that office.
117' The bill providing for building six steam
frigates, in -accordance with the recommendation
of Secretary Dobbin, has passed hotly branches of
the National Legislature and is now a law. In the
present troubled - state of Europe, we think this a
wise movement on the part of Congresi.
IV" The Coalitionists, embracing Whigs, Maine
Law men, and Free Soilers, have carried the elec
tions in Rhode Island and Connecticut, by heavy
majorities. So much for re-opening the slavery
agitation which it was supposed was forever quie
ted by the passage of the Compromise Measures
'of 1850.
TAXABLE PROPERTY OF THE STATh.—The ag
gregate of taxable property fixed by the Revenue
Board of this State is $531.465,556. These sums
will yield the following revenue to the Common
wealth :—Tax on properly subject toe tax of three
mills, 41,577,1.37 44; tax on property subject to a
tax of one per cent., $52,613 S 3; tax -on property
subject to a tax of two per cent., $6,580 50; tax
on watches $11,338 75; gross amount of revenue,
$1,698,920 62. From this amount deduct $lOO,-
000 for collection, exonerations, &c, and we have
nearly $1,548 920 52 net revenue. The expected
revenue for this financial year exceeds by some
thousands of dollars the estimated expenditures.
PEnvEneror OF Fscxs.—There is no longer a
shadow ol doubt but that the Democratic press of
Harrisburg has been bought up•to subserve the in
terests of the . great Railrosd Moloch; and if the
people of Pennsylvania are opposed to a SACRI
FICE of MILLIONS of DOLLARS in virtually
GIVING awkr our Public Improvements to a giant
corporation, let the unsubsidized press of the State
speak out. The Keystone, which, under the rule of
the late Judge .McFarlane would have continued
an unbought organ ol the party, comes to the aid
of the mighty corporation, and right manfully does
n 3. l'ha:C ,for its new friends. by; perverting and dis
nFiUrtiiktieeTl,Dd figures to show that there has
been a loss on the Mainline, during the year 1853,
of $450,705 58. But, mark ye, how a plain tale
shall put them down. In the Keystone's estimate,
the sum of $648,710 46 expended in relaying the
north track of the Columbia, Road and the New
Portage are counted, evidently, with the current ex
penses of the year—which, if deducted, (and no
one will pretend to 'call these ordinary expenses,)
leaves a nett revenue to the Commonwealth of
$198,003 881 Truly jt must be very much to, the
interest of the State to give away what will yield
that sum when the works are completed.
But the Union is still more rampant for the sale.
Nor this alone—but it opposes the lease, of the
works at an annual rental of $1,200,000. This is
probably owing to . the fact that the bold speculators
and financiers who have the control of Two BANKS,
SAVING'S INSTITUTION', and a LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY, are not included end taken in as part
ners. Verily, Lauman & Co., especially the corn
piny, should be the last to do anything that would
militate against the Commonwealth or the Im
piovements, for it is at these teats that they and
their friends have fattenek—Hollidaysburg Standard.
WHOLESALE LEGISLATIOII.—On Tuesday last,
the House of Representatives, at Harrisburg, passed
eightythree bills—nearly all of a local character—
besides doing other business connected with legis
lation. •
New Lomnorr ACADEMT.—We direct attention
to the advertisement of this Institution in another
column. The location is a beautiful one, and we
are glad to learn that, under its present excellent
management, the school is in a highly prosperous
and flourishing condition.
V A bill has passed both branches of Congress,
increasing the compensation of Postmasters 10 per
cent., on their present allowance. This is specially
applicable to Postmasters in small towns and vil
lages, and is an act of justice to a deserving and
useful class, who perform more hard labor at a
lower salary than any other officers under the Gov
ernment

A TRVMETIDOUS WIIECK.—On Saturday week,
as the stem section of the boat Emily laylor was
descending Plane 10, near Hollidaysburg, when
about two-thirds of the way down, the stops broke,
and it came with a rush in collision with the mid
dle and forward sections standing at the foot, caus
ing a most magnificent smash up. The whole of
the sections ran to Miller's Warehouse, where the
locomotive canglit them. While in the act of
checking the speed, the second section parted, scat
tering sugar cured hams, flour, whiskey, &c., right
andleft on the railroad,
Russia and. England.
' Among the items of intelligence by the late Ea'
ppean steamer, says the Pennsylvanian, is a lengthy
end interesting correspondence between the British
Demister at St. Petersburg„ in January, 12.54, Sir
G. H. Sismoua, and the British - Governutent, in
which the views of England and Russia upon the
Turkish 'Question, at that time, are set forth with
considerable clearness—the British Minister hav
ing had numerous interviews with the Czar upon
the subject. The main features of the diiicossiop
are the pertinacity with which the Czar insisted
upon the probabilities of a speedy dissolution of the
Turkish government and the necessity of an un
derstanding between England and Russia which,
in that event, should be made of the country. In
speaking of Turkey, he pronounced it a sick man,
whose recovery was impossible and whose dissolu
tion only a question of time. He declared his de
termination to oppose the occupation of Constanti
nople by England or any other important mari
time power. His general ideas in regard to the
ultimate destiny of Turkey, being given by Sir G.
H. Seymour in his (the Emperor's) own language,
as follows :
Well there are several things which I never will
tolerate. I will begin by ourselves. I will not
tolerate the permanent occupation of Constantino
ple by the Russians. Having said this, I will say
that it never shall be held by the• English or French,
or any other great nation. Again, I never will per
mit an attempt at the reconstruction of a Byzan
tine Empire, or such an extension of Greece as
would render her a powerlul State; still less will I
permit the breaking up of Turkey - into little repub
lics, asylums for the Kossuths and Mazzinis, and
other revolutionists of Europe; rather than submit
to any of these arrangements would go to war;
and as long as I have a man and musket left would
•
carry it on.
At a Inter period of the same conversation, he
thus sketched out the arrangements which would
meet with his approbation:
The Emperor went on to say that in the event
of the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, be tho't
it might be less difficult to arrive at a satisfactory
terrriturial arrangement than was commonly be
lieved. The Principalities are, be said, in fact, an
independent State under my protection; this might
so continue. Servia might receive the same form
of government. So again with Bulgaria. There
seems to be no reason why this province should
not torm an independent State.
As to Egypt, I quite understand the importance
to England of that territory. I can then only say,
that it, in the event of a distribution of the Otto.
man succession upon the fall of the Empire, you
should take possession of Egypt, I shall have no
objection to.offer. I would say the same thing of
Candia. - That island might shit you, and I do not
know why it should not become an English pos
session.
On the part of England, the above propositions
were received with constant protestations, that
Turkey was not so very sick after all; that she
might yet prove long-lived; and that the establish.
ment of a definite understanding in regard to her
final destiny, would almost inevitably precipitate
her dissolution, which it was the interest of both
powers to avoid. As to the final disposition of Tur
key, in case of the destruction of its present - gov.
ernment, the Earl of Clarendon thus stated the
views of the English Cabinet:
But'on the supposition that,,from unavoidable
causes, the catastrophe did take place, her Majes
ty's government entirely share the opinion the
Emperor, that the occupation of:Constantinople by
either of the great Powers, would be incompatible
with the present balance of power and the mainte
nance of peace in Europe,-and must at once be re
garded as impossible; that there are nooelements
for the reconstruction of a Byzantine empire; that
the systematic misgovernnient of Greece, offers no
encouragement to extend its territorial dominion;
aed that as there are no materials for provincial or
communal governmeut, anarcy would be the result
of leaving the provinces of Turkey to themselves,
permitting them to !farm separate republics.
• In regard to the proposed new territorial divis
ion, he says:
England desires no territorial aggrandizement,
and could be no party to a previous arrangement
from which she was to derive any such benefit.—
England could be no party to any understanding,
however general, that was to be kept secret from
other powers; but her Majesty's government believe
that no arrangements could control events, and that
no understanding could be kept secret. They would
in the opinion of her Majesty's government, be the
signal for preparation for intrigues of every.descrip
tion, and for revolts among the Christian subjects
of the Porte. Each power and each party would en
deavor to secure its Injure interests, and the disso
lution of the Turkish empire would be preceded by
a state of anarchy which must aggravate every
difficulty, if it did not render.a peaceful solution of
the question impossible.
The only mode by which a solution could be at
tempted would be that of an European Congress,
but that only affords an additional reason for desi
ring that the present order• of things in Turkey
should be maintained, as her Majesty's government
cannot, without, alarm, reflect on the jealousies that
would then be evoked, the impossibility of recon
ciling the different ambitions and the divergent in
tesests that would be called into Play, and the cer
tainty that the treaties 0f'181.5 must then be open
to revision; when France might be prepared to
risk the chances of an European war, to get rid of
the obligations which she considers injurious to her
national honor, and which, having been imposed
by - victorious enemies, are a constant source of ir
ritation to her. -
In the course of negotiations France was occa
sionally referred to by The Czar with considerable
bitterness, and Austria was mentioned as having
interests perfectly identical with Russia, and as be
ing bound by promises to acquiesce in her arrange
.ments, while the co-operation of England in the
plunder of Turkey was most earnestly, but it' ET,
pears not very successfully solicited.
oua RELATIONS WITH SPAIN.—The Washington
Union seems to consider our relations with Spain
to be in a 'critical condition. An editorial in that
paper, says:
'The indications are daily multiplying that we
are not long to enjoy uninterrupted peace with
Spain. We feared as much when we saw Pezuela
appointed Captain General of Cuba, under what
we believed at the time to be British dictation.
Lord John Russell has since admitted that the
selection of this functionary was in accordance
with the 'wishes of the Aberdeen ministry. And
for what did Victoria's government desire Be.
cause of his known inveterate hostility to the Uni
ted States and their institutions, as manifested dur
ing his residence at Porto Rico, as Captain Ger,e".
al, and afterwards at Madrid!'
It then proceeds to declare that if England and
France think proper to endorse this wrong—if they
send their vessels to the coasts of Cuba to protect
the authorities there in the wanton outrage which
has occurred in the instance of the Black Warrior
—our duty will be too clear to admit of a doubt
uyon the subject, And in conclusion it thus ad
monishes us to prepare to defend ourselves:
'lt is evidently our duty to begin to prepare for
'the worst. We must demonstrcte to the good 01
every land—those entertaining sentiments kindred
to our ownv—in an unmistakeable manner, that we
have not only a good cause, but ttat we are so pre
pared that, with- God's blessing, we shall be ena
bled to maintain it. We should thus contract an
alliance more formidable to our enemies than any
ever contracted between crowned-heads for the sup
pression of political liberty.'

Soldiers of 1812.
Botnrrr LAND—Somalis or 1812.—1 t givec
- •
tut pleasure to know that the Legislatures of Penn
sylvania, Virginia, Maryland,- and NeW Jersey;
have spoken out in a manly and decided tone in
'favor of granting one hundred and sixty acres of
land ,to •the defenders of our daimon country in
the war of 1812, and where they are deceased, to
their widows and children.
Many of our Representatives in Congress seem
not to understand the strength and - popularity of
this measure. In Pennaylvenia there must be fifty
thousand persons interested in the proposed grant.
And in Pniladelphia city and county nearly twenty
thousand persons are concerned in the pa,ssage of
this proposed modification of the bounty land law.
It is true a very large portion of the men who
went forth todetend melt' country in the war of 1812
are dead. But then their widows- or sons and sona
ta-law, are all active in support of the proceeding
of the convention held in this city on the anniver
sary of the great battle of New Orleans.
In numerous instances, both lathers and mothers
have gone down to the grave. The children, there
loie, have a just claim upon the lands that their
parents would have recetvd if they were not dead.
It is true the present detective law authorized the
minor child or children to receive these lands.
But then there are no minor children; or so few
as to render that part of the act little better than
a nullity.
The demands of justice, therefore, are very
strong, indeed, in favor 01 giving the children, gen
enmity, what would have fallen to the parents, it
they had survived and made a personal applica
tion.
From this view of the case, it is very evident
that the proposition of Judge Sutherland, to give
one hundred and sixty acres to the heirs, where
the parents have not
. received the land, must
reach into almost everylamily in the State, and
particularly in and about the limits of
Indeed. it seems sttange that Congress should
delay acting on the bill for a single day. The re
cruits who enlisted about the close of the Mexican
war, and who were in service only two or three
weeks, received one lamidrPd and sixty acres and
why not give the same amount to men ol the •re
cent war of Independence? We are sure that there
is not a more popular bill now pending before
Congress, thau the one that is presented in behalf
01 the soldiers of 1812, their widows and children.
The united press is for it, The voice of the
people Irom every section of the Union is heard in
its favor, and if the Representatives of the people
desiie to meet the wishes of the Freemen of the
country, they will promtly give the soldiers of the
war ol 1812 one hundred and sixty acres of land,
and us place them on something like a footing
witafthe recruits relered to, who received one hurl
dred and sixty acres for only two or three weeks
service.—Pcm.xylvaman.

IMPORTANT Dectstou.—Judge Pearson, of
Harrisburg, recently made an important
decision as to power of Courts of Quarter
Sessions to revoke licenses. A rule was
granted on James Gowan, of Harrisburg, to
show why his license should not be revoked,
on account of violating the law, in selling
liquor to a minor and apprentice; also, for
selling on Sunday. It was proved that he
had sold liquor on Sunday to a minor ap
prentice, and to several others . ; and two
records of conviction were produced, the
one by a justice of the peace for selling li
quor to said minor apprentice, the other by
a different magistrate for selling on Sunday ;
both of which offences were committed since
the renewal of his license at the hinuary
Court. Under these facts, Judge Pearson,
in an able and elaborate opinion, decided
that the Act of March, 11, 1834, invested
the Courts with power to revoke licenses.—
The power was a discretionary one with the
Courts, to be exercised or not as the special
facts might indicate. Mr. Gowan's license
was revoked. The decision is important,
as doubt has existed as to whether Courts
have the power to revoke licenses for viola
tions of the Sunday Act and selling to mi
nors.
TRY New HOLLAND Muanaa.—The person
named Freeman, who is supposed have been rob.
bed and murdered, was found concealed amongst
some hay-stacks on the farm of Mr. Mapes, about
one mile south-west of New Holland, near the
Lancaster turnpike. The *eased had been mis
sed for about three weeks. He had been a school
teacher, and as we hear, was rather dissipated.
When found, his throat was cut from ear to ear,
and a bullet-hole was found in his side. His clothes
had been stripped off, and his money and whatever
he had of value abont him, taken. Mr•. F. was an
Iriat.man, and about 40 years of age. It had been
said for some time past, that he bad received a
legacy from the old country, and it is supposed
that he was murdered for his money by some of
his associates.

Tha superintending Committee, Messrs. How.

good taste and workmanship, in the beautiful 'res.

HEAVY ROBBERY —J. S. Stager, Esq., of ew
Holland, was robbed of his pocket book con alit
ing about $2350.00 on Saturday night last in Phil
adelphia. It appears that on the arrival of the 4ars,
there was an alarm of fire in the vicinity of the
depot, when rnany•of the passengers hastened to
the place, Mr. Stager among them. On his ref arn
and going to Die Hotel, he found his coat bad been
cut, and the pocket book containing the nuiney
abstracted.
EPHRATA, April 1, 1851.
To Me Commissioners of Lancaster County,
GENTLEMEN :--Having been selected by khe
Court to represent this district in the late Rev
enue Board of Commissioners, which has j6t
closed its labors, after being in session 29 days.
It may be interesting to you and the 'Citi4tlS
of the county generally, to be informed of .the
result and more particularly of the disposition
of Lancaster county.
The following table shows the relative coridi
tion of the assessed valuation of the county as
-made by the County ComMissionerAnd adolpt
ed bythe Revenue Board. The regular increase
of the taxable property at the four last trienial
assessments, shows clearly .that our county has
been fairly assessed, and the increase of newly
two millions of dollars between each trienial
assessment, proves that the wealth of the county
is progressing with marked rapidity.
It gives me much pleasure to state that the
Revenue Board passed our county without lin
creasing the assessed valuation as returned by
the County Commissioners, although the Board
found it necessary in order to equalize the tits
ation of the several counties of the Common
monwealth, to raise the valuation of other
counties, varying from $2,000,000 down to
half a million and less.
Lancaster county contains 593,920 acres of
land valued at s2s,333,B63—average value
$42 82 per acre.
Horses,
Cattle,
Money at interest,
Furniture liable to tax,

The valution of the several counties of

adopted by the Revenue Board, is $533,270,41
—being an increase over the last report (185 1
of $40,371,626.
There will be published by the Board a ge

sr...Louis : March 27, 1854.
We are now enjoying delig htful spring weather ,
old Winter has'filled its mission and ta
ken-its leave, tope entire satisfaction of alland
More particularly the poorer class.
Strangers from the .country towns continue to
pour into our city from all quarters--the country
merchants are parchaairig large stocks of good;
and our business :thoroughfares are literally choair: -
ed up with drays, boxes and barrels.
The examination in the Kate Kearney case was
concluded a day or two since, the result of which
was, the Captain, Mr. John Bruner, was commit
ted to answer at. the next session of the 11. S.;Dis
trict Court, which will be held in two weeks. lie
is now under bail in the sum of $5,000. The en
gineer was unable: to appear, in consequence of the
injuries -received at the time of the explosion,, The
evidence in this case covers 120 pages of closely
written matter, and it is said furnishes some most
startling disclosures, not only in this case, but what
seems to have been the pradica among steamboat
'men. It was proved that the boiler of the Kate
Kearney was leaking the day previous to the ac
cident, and that the Captain was apprised of h.—
But, it was also proven that other boats had run
for weeks, and in fact months with defective boil
ers, and they leaking badly all the time. The
steamboat Inspectors are highly censurable for al
lowing such boats to ply on our western waters
with their endorsement.
The Hoffman and Baker case has also been ter
minated. Baker has been held to bail in the sum
of $5,000 to appear at the oezt term of the Crim
inal Court. Embree, an accomplice of Baker, was
held in the sum of '52,000 to appear at the same
time. On affidavit of Hoffman, Baker's wife was
arrested for shooting with intent to kill. Hoffman
is last recovering from his injuries.
Some time since Maj. Bryant, U. S. Marshal for
the District of Missouri, attempted to' execute
writs against trespassers upon the public lands in
M'Donald county, in this State. It appears that a
large body of men were engaged in cutting timber
on the land belonging to 'Uncle Sam,' he presented
his writs, the men resisted and actually drove him
out of the State into Arkansas; they pnrsued.•him
thither, and with great difficulty he escaped with
tits lite. A man by the name of James M. Barker
was arrested in this city on a charge of being - con.
cerned in the rebellion above alluded to. He islet('
to be a lawyer and a merchant, and in the former
capacity gave aid and countenance to the resist
ance of the law. He is now in ourjail on a charge
of high treason, for which there is no bail. His
case will come up at the next sitting of the U. S.
Circuit Court, ‘Which will be held in this city in a
Lew days.
The steamboat 'Federal Arch,' was run into by
the Aleonia a lew days since, about 30 miles be
low this city, and sunk. No lives were lost. The
ooat is saki to be a total loss, but the cargo will
se recovered in a damaged state. She was bound
fur Cincinnati with a heavy freight. This is an
other to add to the already frightful list of disas
ters.
Our municipal election takes place to-day week.
Bath parties h,ave their tickets in the field.
St. Louis, as well as the State of Missouri, has
heretotore been very backward in the construction
railroads—sbe depended too much upon the rivet
.rude, and would not move in the matter of rail
'wits, until she is forced to'clo so to competewithi
tie adjoining States, who are now far in advance
of us. Our citizens are now beginning to see and
leel the effects of railroad communication with the
‘eaboard cities. Let me show you how the trade
d a single State effects St. Louis, and that. State
..ne or the youngest of the constellation; I allude
.0 lowa. The trade ot that State with St. Louis
.s estimated at $12,000,000; now much oi this
trade, it not nearly all l ,for the northern mart, finds
Its way to Chicago via the Rock Island railroad.
Chicago alrecdy competes with St. Louis for a
urge portion that formerly came to our city, and
we are beginning to feel the want of railroad com
munication,. What was our city during the six
seeks the river was ice -bound, and navigation sus
pended? /k mere unit in the Commercial world,
ve scarcely could get a mail to our city lrom any
quarter, and all for the want of railroads. She now
finds that to compete successfully with other cities
she must have such facilities; and she has et last
taken steps to that effect. Although it is done at
the eleventh hour, I think there still remelt's 'vir
tue and patriotism enough to save the city I'
The am...unt of hemp raised in the Western States
as near as can be ascertained, is 29,000 tons per
annum. Oi this great western staple Kentucky
raised 15,000 tons, and Missouri 10,000 tons. Each
of these- States is capable of producing 100,000
tons,per annum.
The number 01 slaves in this State in 1850, was
87,422. In 1852, 87,207—a decrease 01215 slaves`
in two yearn. The white population increased 42 ;
930.
The number of lawyers in St. Louis city and
county is 211 !
I learn that the small pox is raging with great
violence amongst the Chippewa Indians along the
south shore of Lake Superior and on the •head of
Chippewa river. This tribe is suffering fearfully
irom the scourge. A quantity of vaccine matter
has been forwarded to Lapointe and Fond du Lac,
and it is hoped may have a timely effect in check
ing this fatal disease.
The Black Warrior affair has created no-little
excitement in this neighborhood, and the sympa
this ot the people seem to be with the Captain.—
The message of President Pierce on the subject, is
a clear and sensible document, worthy the head ot
our Republic. The National Flag has repeatedly
been insulted in that quarter; and so long as we
look quietly on it will continue. 1 do not claim
to be a Filibuster or countenance any such class,
yet when we look back at the several insults to
the American Flag, the spirit of the Revolution
cannot be concealed. lam for the immediate an
nexation ot Cuba, either by purchase or by force.—
In the Black Warrior case let us have indemnity
for the past and security for the future-let tut learn
these Spaniards thal. the American colors cannot be
insulted and hauled down with impunity—that we
claim the freedom of the seas, that we will protect
the glorious 'stars and stripes' in every clime and
on every sea.. . .
I take the following information from a value
article published in the Chicago Democracic Press:
The name of Illinois is derived from Lena, man,
and ois, which latter is undoubtedly of French or
igin.
The first white men who ever visited our State
were. Marquette and Joilet, two'Jesuit missionaries.
This was - in1662.3,and Hennepin and Lasalle fol
lowed a lew years later.
Illinois , w as organized as a county of Vir
ginia, in October, 1778. •
In Mardh,l7B4, Virginia'ceded to the U. Stites
her claim to all territory northwest of the Ohio.
In 1790, Goy. St. Clair organized the ,county
which bears bis-name.
Illinois was attached to the Territory of Indiana
irom 1800 to 1809, and in the following year it
was established ,a territory.
The first territorial Legislature convened at Kea
kaskia, on the 25th of November, 1812, and in
1815; Hon. Nathaniel Pope was elected as Repre
sentative to Congress.
Illinois became a State in 1818, and Shadrach
Bond was elected Governor, and Pierre Menard
Lieut. Governor.'
We have some very 'big' States out here, and
they are rapidly filling up. To show your readers
lie size of a lew of these States, I will ade the tact
that Illinois would make forty such such states as
Rhode Island, and Minnesota six.y. Missouri is
larger than all New England. Dino exceeds either
Ireland, or Scotland? or Portugal, and equals Bel
gium, Scotland, and Switzerland together. Missouri
is more than halt as large •es Italy, and lar
ger than Denmark, Holland, Belgium and Switzer
land. Missouri and Illinois are larger than Eng
land, Scotland, Ireland and Wales.
Yours, OLD GUARD.
