iCr The Democratic Awe Central Committee
will meet at BacaLees Horst., in Harriabois, on
Thurud ay the 15.6 of June, at 10 o'clock, A.
By order of the Chairman, J. ECUs &mewl, Egg
Our Paper.
We have commenced improving the appear
ance of the " liirEituosscrs," and will con
tinue in the desirable work of reform until it
is presented in an entire new dress, as well as
somewhat enlarged in its dimensions. This
has been attended with considerable expense
on our part, and we must look to the patrons
of the paper to sustain us in the, enterprise.—
Although our circulation is much larger now
• than it was when we first took charge of the
concern, and gradually increasing,,still there
are hundreds, aye thousands, of Democrati in
thskscunty whose names should be on eur
packet Wok, but who have never, yet given us
any evidence of their willingness to patronize
this old established organ of their principles
and their party. Many, too, have taken the
paper for years, and seem to have lost sight
of the fact entirely that, to carry on the estab
lishment, requires motley. Now, this is all
wrong, not to say ungenerous in the.extreme.
The Whigs of Lancaster county do not so treat
„their papers, all of which are liberally patron
ized and sustained. They hold up the hands
of their Editors, by opening their purse-strings
and contributing two or three dollars a year
promptly, for that purpose—and, perhaps, this
is one of the reasons why Whiggery is so ram
pant and flourishing in this quarter.
But our object is not to write a tedious arti
cle on the subject, or to say harsh things of
our Democratic friends. All we wish to do at
this time is to call their attention to the im
provements which we contemplate in the paper,
and to ask them (as a reciprocal benefit to the
Editor and. the party) to do what they can to
extend and increase its circulation—and we
promise on our part to endeavor to merit their
continued confidence and esteem.
We also inform our Democratic friends, and
others, that we have supplied the office with an
assortment of new and fashionable Jos TYPE,
and are therefore prepared to do any thing in
that line in as neat a style asit can be done at
either of the other offices in this City. All
we ask is a fair trial, and we have no doubt
of our ability to please.
The Whig; Candidate.
What CidiOl or claims, we would 'respectfully
ask our Whig contemporaries, has Mr. POLLOCK
on the people of Pennsylvania, or what has he eve.
accomplished for their benefit, or when and where
has he exhibited any statesmanship which goes to
show superior orkeven mediocre qualifications fm
the station to which his aspirations are directed?
.bas never, we beliette, been honored by hi.
neighbors with a seat in the Legislature, and con.
sequently has little, if any knowleage of the wants
and resources of the Commonwealth. Every Gov
ernor, from the time of Simon * Snyder down to the
present worthy incumbent, had previously served
in the Legislature, and were presumed to be exper•
iented in . State affairs, and familiar with the poll
ey of the government. But not so with Mr. Pot •
rocs. is true, he was elevated by accident, anti
OD the exploded and obselete tariff hobby, to a seat
in Congress several years ago; and, whilst-there .
only distinguished himself by misrepresenting hie
constituents in voting with the more rabid of his
party to withdraw our victorious troops from Mex
ico, in the midst of their triumphs, and thus virtu
ally attempting to disgrace our brave soldiery and
dishonor the flag of the Republic. If he did any
thing esle, whilst in Congress, worthy of note we
are not advised of it, and hope his friends will
make it known, so that justice may he done him'
Mr POLLPIM is, therefore, (although a lawyer)
entirely without that practical knowledge neces•
vary in the incumbent of the Gubernatorial chair
and is it reasonable to suppose that he would be
able to manage satisfactorily the multifarious du.
ties appertaining to the office 'I Especially, we
apprehend, would be be at a loss on the subject of
finance and revenue—of all others the most im
portant to the tax•payers of the Commonwealth.—
Whig Governors heretofore, although men of some
exlerience in State legislation, proved themselves
to be incompetent for the position—•how much less,
then, would be be able to discharge the duties pro.
perly who has had no opportunity of acquiring the
necessary qualifications I
The people made a trial of RITNER and Joust

be willing, at this time, to incur the risk of en•
other such experiment, especially when the caock
date seeking the place is . inlerior in knowledge
and experience to either of hieWbig wdecessors

affairs of this great State in such a way as to ado

VIRGIWIL Lens —We again direct attention
to the extensive sale of valuable lands, in Bath co,

tending to 'estimate the defection at fi.•ures ranging
trom 300 to 800 votes. Withseveml of these gen
tlemeo the wish is,doubtless,.lathei to the thought'
Elot'the whole thing is mere moonshine, and is on
ly intended for foreign consumption—to give 'aid
and comfort' to dissatisfied spirits in other sections
of the State. The Democracy of Lancaster ei y are
made of sternei and more reliable stuff than to be
thus made a catspaw for Federal Whiggery in any
of its varied phases or r amifications. He may lose
a few votes as he did in 1851, but the idea that
800 . or 300, or even 100 Democrats can be found
willing to strike at their own standard bearer, and
ally themselves to the defunct carcass of Federal
ism, is, to say the least of it, supremely ridiculous
and absurd, and those persons at a distance who
are disposed to believe in such nonsense will find
themselves egregiotisly mistaken atter the election
- That Governor Buns', like Governors Sauk:
and PORTER and all his Democratic predecessors,
has enemies in his own party, no one will deny,
and, indeed, no man of mark in the State has ever
been able to escai e them. But they are as but a
,flop in the bucket compared with the great mass
f the party—the honest farmers, mechanics and
laboring men, who are ever governed by fixed and
cherished principles, and who have no sympathy
with either of the hall dozen unprincipled factions
which now make up the Whig party.
But why should any Democrat oppose the re.
election dl Governor Blaze - a? We should like to
near any good and substantial reason for such op
position. Has he nut been faithful to the Consti
tution, faithful to his party,and faithful to the prin!
ciples enunciated in his inaugural address? Is he
not honest, talented, and a sincere and zealous de
fender of the rights and interests of Pennsylvania
and her citizens? . What public act has he done,
or what doctrine has he advocated which is not in
accordance with all the pledges he made to the peo
ple during the canvass of 1851 ?
And, pray what would be gained by his defeat,
even if that were possible - 1 What would it bene
fit Democrats, or advance the interests of the people
and the glory of our noble old Commonwealth, io
place such a bitter and unrelenting Federalist as
James Pozzocz. at the bead of affairs? Has there
ever, been a Whig yet elected Co the Gubernatorial
office in this State, who did not abuse his power?
It there has not, and we appeal to the sober, reflect
ing sense of our Democratic friends for the truth
or the declaration, then why should a majority of
the people desire a restoration of the Johnston and
Ritner dynasties, with all their sins yet peering
through the flimsy covering that seeks to hide them
froin the public view? We are sure no Democrat
when he comes to reflect seriously upon the mat
ter, will be so recreant to his duty—a duty which
he owes to his country—as to vote against Wiz-
LIAM BIGLER, under whose administration the State
has went forward, with giant strides, in her career
of greatness and prosperity.
What if Governor BIGLER has done some things
that are not approved of by every one—what if he
nas made two or three mistakes in which no prin
ciple was involved, since he has been in office, is
that any sufficient reason why Democrats should
be found arraying themselves with their old ene
mies in opposition to their friends? We think
not. No man is perfect. All our Governors have
committed errors in the same way. Spunk and
Porter and Wolf, and even good old Simon i Snyder,
were far from being free from such charges= r but
were they considered any the less worthy of being
candidates for re-election, and were they not trium
phantly sustained by the people?
We put them questions it, all candor and lair.
pen to the Democrats of the city and county of
Lancaster, and ask them to reflect seriously upon
what we have said. Governor Biome was fairly
placed in nomination by the almost unanimous
voice of the State Convention. Not a murmur of
disapprobation was there beard at his course.—
Every Democrat was satisfied with the action of
that body, and no one then doubted, nor does any
unprejudiced intelligent man now doubt, of his re.
election to the office he has filled for more than two
years with such distinguished and acknowledged
ability. We, therefore, caution our Democratic
iriends to put no faith in the silly stories with
which their ears are saluted from day to day, by
interested persons, some few of whom wear the
the cloak of Democracy only the more readily to
deceive the unwary and unsuspecting. Listen not
to their syren song. They are enemies in disguise
of your party and your principles, and whatever
their professions may be, their practicgis diamett i
cally opposed to the principles and the party you
have so nobly contended for in many a hotly con
eated battle field.
The Long Agony Over I
THE NEBRASKA BILL PASSED
After a protracted session on yesterday week,
until a late hour in the evening, the bill for the or.
eanizarion of the Nebraska and Kansas Turk..
ries (being the House bill without the Clayton
amendment) passed the House of Representatives,
by a Vote of 113 to 100.
.The bill was sent to the Senate for concurrence
which was, (after considerable discussion through
an elln-t to restore the Clayton Amendment.) given
and it will doubtless receive the sanction of the
of !h.. President. It may therefore, be considered
the law of the land; and. as in duty bound, inns
much as it recognizes the great republican doctrine
of the sovereignty of the people, it will become the
duty of the Democratic press to yield it a hearty
and vigorous support, whatever may have been
their opinion previously expressed as to the expe
diency of introducing the measure at this time.
The Clayton amendment being stricken out, re
moves one of the principal objections to its pas
sage with many, and therefore we hope our Detn-
ocratic friends, one and all, will at once rally,p
Sustain the bill, as, by such a course, they do noth•
ing more than carry out the great doctrine embod
ied in the Compromise 011850, and endorsed and
re•endorsed by the Democratic National Conven
tion and the people in 1852.
The following is the vote of the Pennsylvania
delegation on the final passage of the bill:
Ykaii--Messrs. Bridges, Dawson, Florence, Jones
Kurtz, MdNair, Packer, Robbins, Straub, Witte
and Wriglit-11.
N zTs-Messrs. Chandler, Curtis, Dick, Drum

1:13 - Of the ninety Democratic members of Con.
gress from the free States present, 45 voted for the
bill, and 45 against it—being equally divided. The
Whigs from the Northern States,all voted against
it.
Of the fiftii eight Democratic members present
from the Slave holding States, 56 voted for the bill,
and 2 against it. 12 Southern Whigs also voted
for the bill and 7 against it
There were absent and riot voting 12 Democrats

storeLtrristet.—The toilowiog cunuits and.im
girous mode of shoplifting in New York, - We
m the Police CAa7 . 4te of a recent date: ,
Foraome time ties!. Mesars..Barly & Co., the silk
add nbboe dealers m Broadway, found themselves
subjected to depredations" by pehions coming to
their store, pretend* to be . customere, and carry
in off a great deal.or properly. The visits of one
laity were regarded as being-particuleirly suspiciois,
out though closely watched, wris,not detec ed, and
yet whenever she left the store some rulicle, some
times a bulky roll of silk, was missing. She was
usually enveloped in a large handsome shawl, and
was a continual visitor at the store, her pinches s
varying from one to ten dollars. Messrs. Burley &
Co.. feeling convinced that this lady was the thief,
determined to have tier watched. Accordingly they
caused ,a hole to be' mein the partition, and in
structed a lad in their employment that when she
cams he was to go behind the partition and take
particular notice of her actions. On Friday she
came again, and desired to look at some silk. The
hid was in his biding place, which he soon left,
861 informed his employer that he had, seen the
lady slip beneath her shawl a piece of black silk.
Between the first act and the time the boy could
'Worm Mr. Burley, she was observed by toe book
keeper to slip another piece of white silk beneath
her shawl. An officer was sent for, and Mr. Bur
iey politely told, his customer the suspicious he had
of her, and desired, bet to remove her shawl, ex
peeling be would find the two pieces of silk be
neath. She appeared very indignant, and acquies
ced ha,bis request, when to his astonishment no silk
WO visible, nor any particular protrusion of her
dress which would indicate goods of so bulky a
.character being concealed. He began to tear be
was mistaken, and that both the boy ani his book
keeper had been deceived, and was in a difficulty
as to what he should do. At this juncture Sergeant
Devoe, of the Chiefs office came into the store and
the whole facts were detailod to him, Findingmat
mere were becoming serious, the lady changed co-
lor, especially when she found Devoe insisted sport
raking . her to the Chiefs o ff ice. She then slipped
born her dress two pieces of ribbon, but in her agi
tation rather bungler the* !Latter, and her act was
observed by the officers. On her arrival at the
Chief s office she was undressed. On ber gown
being taken off there was tumid rou. d her waist
a cord, to which was attached a strong bag or
sack, and in this bag the two abstracted pieces of
silk were found—the black containing thirty-eight,
the white forty yards, and valued at $lOO. Between
her shoulders, attached to her petticoat, was found
a portemonnaie, containing $l3O, morly gold.
There was a large slit in her dress, by means of
which access was obtained to the bag. The while
matter was most ingeniously arranged. Messrs
Burley & Co. state that by similar means they
have lost over $2OOO worth 01 property within a
very short period. The prisoner gave her name as
Mary Bride, and is besides known to the police as
Bertha. She is believed to be associated with a
gang of systematic ahop•lifters. She is about five
teet five inches in height, nfit very stout, sallow
complexion, dark hair and eyes, and wears a figured
mousseline de laine dress. Sue was taken bane
the Mayor and held for examination. She refused
to give her address.
Ten CLATTON AMENDMENT.—The attempt by
Mr. Pearce, a Whig Senator from Maryland, to re
engraft in the Nebraska bill as it came from the
House, the Clayton Amendment, can or.ly have a
tendency to unnecessarily retard the final passage
of that law, and we are therefore glad to learn that
the friends of the, measure to the Senate will ac
quiesce in the action of the House with great una
nimity. We were surprised and mortified to see
Mr. Brodhead, one of the Senators from this State,
supporting this amendment, for we are well satis
fied that such a course on his part is in direct op
position to the wishes and feelings of the Democ
racy of Pennsylvania and of her citizeas generally.
That portion of the Congressional delegation from
this State which sustained the bill were unani
mous in their desire to have the amendment strick
en out, arid in doing so they but fairly represented
the wishes of their constituencies.
It is well understood. we believe, that the bill
could not have been pas'sed in the House if it had
contained this amendment, and we are at a loss to
conceive why a sincere friend of the main princi
ples of the measure, with this fact before him,
should insist upon a course of action which would
necessarily return it to that body, and thus renew
the scenes of strife and confusion which have just
been closed to the general satisfaction of the coun
try.—Pennsylvanian.
WHIG Durriscvroas.—That portion of the Whig
party, says the Lebanon Advertiser, which may be
considered the leading platoon, composed of a he
terogeneous concoction of all creeds and isms, pur
sues at this time a course that is fraught with den
ger, and derogatory to the character of the Amer
ican people. While it professes sympathy for the
negro race in general, and attacks the very pillars
of our institutions for the slave in particular, in its
endeavors to free them from their bonds, and place
them on an equal footing with the whites in every
political and social respect,,they at the same time
and in the same breath abuSe, denounce, and open•
ly avow their purpose of degrading their own col
or, the descindants of the same forefathers with
thennielVes, to the condition of the blacks. The
negroes they would make freemen, the Irish and
German slaves. They in effectargue that the for
mer are deserving of freedom and*the right of suf
(rage. and the latter not. They would place the
Plesidential chair within the reach of an African
and make the European ineligible to the office of
constable. Let the matter be viewed in its true
light and this truth will present itself clearly and
undeniably. Read their papers. Is not every
other paragraph an abolition story or sentiment,
and the Intervening a "Native American" one!
Are they not in alliance with both these organiza
tions? and is not the object of the former to ele•
rate the African — to the present position of the
whitee, and the object of the latter to degrade the
European to the condition of the blacks? Divest
the Irish, the German, or any other portion of our
population of the right of suffrage, (only one of the
objects of the Native American organization,) and
their position, politically, will be precisely that Of
the colored race.
The Periodicals.
"Tea BRIDE or Tae WlLDsansts."—Through
the politeness of Mr. T. B Peterson, No. 102 Ches
nut street, Philadelphia, we have received a copy
nt this admirable work :mom the pen of Emerson
Bennett, one of the foremost novel writers of the
,lay. Speaking of the book, the Ladies' National
Magazine says:
"This is a masterly production, from the pen of
one who stands at the head of American novelists.
It is a xil/ t i.,n of genius, and a work that
will live. As a correct picture of lite in the wil
derneks, prior to, and at the period when, the bor
ders were literally laid waste by the savage hordes
that poured in upon them, deluging the land with
blood, and which is narked in history as 'Lord
Dunmore's War,' we do not know where its equal
can be found. '1 he characters are varied, and ile•
lineated with that distinct individuality, and fidel
ity to life, for which Mr. Bennett stands pre-emi
nent. For vivid description, irresistible humor,
moving pathos, thrilling incidents, graphic power,
lofty sentiments, and wholesome moral, it deserves
to rank as one of the gems of American literature.
Tbe volume contains 325 pages, and may be
had at any of our Bookstores, or by enclosing 50

He made but one cut at Dunbar, which was given
with powerful force, the knife entering to the hilt,
cutting one rib sourly off, and penetrating the lungs

was strange that Dunbar survived so long. He bled
prolusely, and the pavement where he stood when
he was stabbed was covered with blood.
(p'H..JI. Basscruatriax in a series of anti
clew in the Pittsburg Union on the Nebraska bill
makes the following quotation .frOm a pamphle
published by him in 1850 as applicable to the pre
sent question:
•Tbey•claim(the south) the right to go to the
acquired or conquered territories with their slave
property: The mere attempt at exclusron is re
garded as offensive and unjust—it it be arsenic they
demand their share: If, according to my view or
the subject, the conquered territory is neither a
part of a State, nor a part of the Union, the sovei
eignity is either in Congress or in the inhabitants.
Accoidirig to false European reasoning, as to toe
origin or source of political power, it is in the
government that is in Congress; acco rding to' our,
Democratic mode of viewing the subject it is in
the inhabitants, on people to be governed. Accord
ing to our mode of reasoning, power ascends from
the governed to the governors; according to the
despotic mode of ,viewing the subject, it descends
from the assumed superior to the supposed inferior;
in other words, that it has a source higher than
the people."

the Chfet Engineer, Samuel W. Illf3iin, Esq., has
commenced operations on the above route:
A corps of engineers consisting of some ten or
twelve individuals commenced; here one day last
week to:survey the proposed route for the Octora
re Railroad, as it is called. This railroad, is in
tended to penetrate the great coal regions of the
Susquehanna valley, end make New Castle the de
pot. W 6 have conversed with a number of indi
viduals along the proposed route of this road from
Pennsylvania, none of - whom entertained a doubt
but thaCit will be built in a fcw years. I have
been told that so anxious are the people of Penn
sylvania for its construction, that there is scarcely
an individual, through whose land it passes, that
,could not give the right of way without any com
pensation; being fully convinced that he would re
ceive an,ample reward iu the enhancement of hie

A. Naw INSTRUMENT OP WaRPsRE—The Wash•
3ngton correspondent of the New York Express,
under date of May 8, says:
'Several army officers were this morning en.
gaged at the arsenal in testing the qualities of a
newly invented rifle, or, more properly speaking a
rifle cannon submitted to government for examina
tion and appriwal.
'The instrument in question is very similar to
the common rifle, having the same sights, the tel.
.escope, and grooved barrel; the only difference that
we could discover being that one is destitute of a
stock, is upon wheels and so arranged that by
means of machinery it can be elevated, depressed
or rotated at pleasure, while the motions of the oth
er are regulated by hand.
'The barrel ia about three feet in length, weighs
eighty pounds, and carries a one-inch ball, weigh.
ing five ounces, and also an explosive ball, which
discharges its contents the instant it strikes any
object. This rifle was [tied at a target, eight hun
dred and eighty yards distant, (about hall a mile,)
and with great accuracy, nearly every shot taking
effect. So far, we learn, it has given general saris
faction ; though the report to the Ordnance depart
ment in regard to it-has not been made known.
'The instrument was invented by Mr. Gilbert
Smith of New York.'
Naw YOE'S ♦fID NOarOLK RA I LUOAII.—Th e
New York Express gives the route of the New York

This proposed road, we understand, will com
mence on the New Jersey shore, opposite to the
Narrows, and run by nearly a straight line through
West Jersey to Delaware Bay, after crossing which
(a distance of tweloe miles,) it will extend down
the Peninsula or. Eastern shore, lying between the
Atlantic and Chesapeake Bay, to Cape Charles op
posite Norfolk. At this city, (which now bids
fair to rise to the importance which its commer
cial position Warrants,) it will connect with all the
important roads through Virginia, North and South
Carolina, Georgia and Alabama to New Orleans,
and the Mississippi river. It is also intended to
form a part of improved routes to San Francisco
by steamers from the South side of Florida across
the Gulf of Mexico to the Isthmus.
