GOV. BIGLER LN MONTROSE.
' One of the largest assemblages ever con
vened inSusquehanna county, met at Mon
trose, ou TueJda:y the :29th ult. At three
o'clOck in the afternoon the multitude con
vened in front of the Academy, where a
platform had previously been prepared for
the occasion. The meeting was called to
order by lion. G. A.. CrßOW,whereupon,
Hon. M. C. TILER was chosen President;
A3LUERST CARPENTER, CAL. LEET, LEWIS
BRUSH, ISAAC RECKHOW, THOS. JOHNSON
and TORRY WilitrxE,Y, chosen Vice Presi
dents ; and A. J. Davis; chosen Secretary.
The President then introduced His Ex
cellency, WM. BIGLEII, who spoke upon
the topics of the day in his usual able and
statesman-like manner, being frequently
interrupted by cheers from the crowd.
The substance of his remarks upon some
of the topics touched upon by him were as
follows:
“He first gave a general review of State
affairs—spoke of the prosperous condition
of the Cbmmonwealth—of the condition of
her finances, showing most clearly that but
for projects of expenditure commenced be
fore his induction into office, over two mil
lions of the public debt might have been
paid within the last three years. He de
clared himself unqualifiedly against. the
construction of any additional improve
ments by the State—that individual enter
prise and capital were equal to tie accom
plishment of all feasible schemes of this
kind, and that the people should be no
longer burthened with taxation for such
purposes. He next alluded to the mone
tary condition of the country—to, the bank
failures which were daily heralded through
the newspapers, and said that it should not
be forgotten, when he came into office a
project was on foot under the auspices of
his predecessor, a Whig Governor, to in
troduce into our state the Free—or to use
the classic language of the New York pa
pers, the Wild Cat System of Banking.—
He showed: that had this measure-of Whig
policy Ren adopted, Pennsylvania, and
especially” her commercial Metropolis, would
now be the scene of these commercial dis
asters—that even had he yielded to the
demands of-the Legislature for an exten
sion of our present system we should . now
be in the condition of some of the sur-:
rounding States. . He defined his views and
the Democratic policy on the subject gen
erally. He spoke of the loose system of
granting corporate privileges in practice
when he came into office—a system which
gave undue rights and advantages to cap
ital, in its relations to labor—that enabled
the shrewd and designing to impose upon
the honest and unwary. He spoke most
feelingly and eloquently, of the Common
School , ystern. He had not supposed that
it would ever be necessary for him,to define
his position on this subject, or repel the'
accusation, that the democracy desired to .
make inroads upon the system; but he had
been mistaken, for there were those who
were bold and reckless enough to make the
charge. ;-: He repelled it with feeling and
manifest indignation, and declared that he
had alwkys been, was now, and ever should
be, the devoted friend of our common
school system—that it should be his pride
and pleasure to labor to perfect and extend
it, and he looked forward to the day when
the Commonwealth should be prepared to
provide for public education of all grades.
He next alluded to the temperance cause
—to the effort that had been made to turn
it to political or partizan account. He said
his position was defined - in his letter to the
State Temperance Convention. He deplored
the evils of intemperance,.and was willing
to sanction any reasonable measure to mit
igate, and if possible, to exterminate the
' vice. But he could not pledge himself to
sanction a law which he had never seen.•
He could not under the obligation cf his
oath say that a statute was just and con
stitutional, not one word of which he had
ever seen; and for this he had been abused
by certain politicians and pretended tem
perance men. He said the question had
been referred to the people, and their
voice would decide so far as related to the
policy of the measure. Should they de
mand the'law,and the representatives of the
people -put it in a constitutional form,
neither lie.nor his opponent would have the
moral courage to reject it.
He next alluded to the strange political
dogmas promulgated by the Whig, Native
American and Know-Nothing Mayor of
Philadelphia,—to the effect that no citizen
not born in this country, should be per
mitted to hold office, nu matter how pure
his character, how strung his love of coun
try, how valuable his services. The acci
dent of birth was to decide the civil rights
of the citizen. We shall not attempt to
give an idea of the biting sarcasm, and
burning eloquence of this part of his speech.
It was truly great. He exhibited the fla
grant injustice of the idea, denounced it
as immoral,—as unjust—as a proposition
to disgrace our country, by breaking the
faith of our fathers as plighted in the Con
stitution. The secret order of "Know
Nothings," who enffirree the doctrine of
Mayor ionrad, together with another dog
ma that seeks to proscribe
. citizens from
their civil rights, because of their religious
belief, was 'next reviewed and rejected as
a most insidious, dangerous, and unjust
measure. • He enquired why a secret and
oath-bound association was necessary in
this country, and argued that if there be
political or moral evils amongst us, which
need cprrection, that it should be a day
light bpsiness, that the end should bei ac
compliShed in a manner consistent with the
Aineriean character, that they were out
spoken
,and gloried in the liberty of speech
. and the freedom of the press. He invoked
all denominations and all classes of people
to show by the constitution, that they had
a perfect guarantee against 'encroachment
from any quarter. he should stand by it,
not for the benefit of one class or sect, but
for the sake of all.
The laws organizing the territories of
Nebraska and Kansas were next referred
to by the Governor. He said he was well
aware that this was the absorbing topic in
the Northern part of the State. He said
that officially he had no connection with the
subject—it was not a part of the steward
ship for which he must account; that he
had not covetianfed witn the people to or
ganize territories, nor to control the action
of Congress on any question. lle should
not claim for himself any of the honor that
might flow from Congressional action ou
this or any other subject, and he did not
intend to bear the responsibility, for this
was the work of members of Congress, and
they must account for it to their constitu
ents—that he should not ask them, or the
President to bear the responsibility of his
errors of State policy. lie did his duty
without consulting them, and he certain
ly did not and probably never could have
any official connexion with this subject,
and that it was scarcely possible that the
election of a Governor whoever might suc
ceed, could have any influence upon the
future policy of those territories. This
much he thought it right to say as to his
official relation to the question; but as a,
citizen. and a member of the Democratic
party,
,amongst whom a diversity of opinion
exists on this subject,he sholild4uost cheer-
fully say what he thought about the ques
tion. He did not think his views of special
importance for he made no pretensions to
experiencAr National politics- '
that from
1848 to 1850, however, he had given the
slavery question some consideration. That
the national controversy growing out of the
attempt to adjust the question of slavery
in the territories acquired froin Mexico,ab
sorbed all other topics and seemed for
awhile to threaten the stability of our Na
tional Union. It was at that time that Gen.
Cass, the patriot and statesman, proposed
the octrine of non-intervention—that Con
gress should forbear to act on the subject
of slavery in the territories; that such ter
ritories at the proper time should be ad
mitted as States with or without slavery as
the people might decide. He said that he
thought this doctrine was wise and safe.—
He became its advocate—that he had said
.so in 1851, when travelling the State as a
candidate. 'All, however, remember that
he endorsed the Compromise measures of
1850. That he was still the advocate 'of
the doctrine of.non-intervention,—that he
was willing to trust the people with a ques
tion of morals or politics,--that he had
more confidence in their judgment,patriot
ism, and love of freedom than he had in
that of Congress. Indeed, if we were to
believe half that is said of the impressible
character of that body, we should be com
pelled to regard it as unsafe on any and
all questions. He thought .the reference
of this vexed and dangerous question to
the people well calculated to allay the ex
citement and give greater stability to our
national confederacy. And as to the ex
tension of slavery, he did not embrace the
doctrine of non-intervention, believing that
it would extend the institution,—he be
lieved just the reverse, that the tendency
would be to restrict, to drive it south of
the Missouri line. That sues was his es
timation of the value of the Union, such
his ideas of the blessings which it has be
stowed on the American people—such the
blessedeinfluence which our institutions
were exercising in other parts of the world,
that for one he was willing to labor for its
preservation and be sacrificed if needs be
to secure its perpetuity. Its dissolution,
in his opinion, would be the most horrible
CITY - OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORiN - ING, SEPTEMBER 19, 1854.
calamity that could befal both races,—it
would be a'sad calamity to the North and
the South, to .the master and to the slave.
He next went on to say that had it been I
his business to organize the territories of
Nebraska and Kansas, he should have done
so in the terms of the Compromise acts of
1850, without disturbing the act of 1820
fixing the .Missouri line. Whilst he said
this,he was also bound in candor to declare
that he did not believe that the policy of
the territories would be different from what
it will be under the present law—that he
firmly believed that slavery could not ex
tend there—that nine-tenths of the people
would decide against it—that the laws of
Nature were not congenial to the institu
tion—that some of the wisest opponents
of the measure held this opinion. He said
he never had and never should seek to ex
tend or"strengthen the institution of • sla
very, that he regretted the existence of the
institution as sincerely as any man; but he
had had and he should maintain the clear
constitutional rights of southern as well as
those of northern states. He should not
acknowledge the overshadowing influence
talked about so much, whether that influ
ence came from the south or the north.—
To the question by some one in the crowd,
whether slavery did not exist in the terri
tories at this time, he replied that it did
not—that individual slaves might be there
doing what white men directed them to do,
but the institution was not there in any'''
legal form, and could not be without ex
press kcal law—that it had no legal exis
tence there—that the constitution of the
United Stares, in Lis opinion did not carry
it there—that Congress had not and could
not establish it there—that it could only
derive a legal existence from the local law
making power—that it was the creature of
law—that when the people of the territo
ries constituted a law-making power—in
the shape of a local legislature, that pow
er, and that only, could give the institu
tion legal existence in the territories—that
he sincerely believed and hoped that when
that power acted for those territories tha
institution would be rejected.
He said he was desirous of being sus
tained or condemned on his- own official
acts---but lie could beg no question of the
Whig party—they had a right to make all
the capital they can out of the acts of any
member of the Democratic party, and urge
it as an objection to all ; but not so
amongst members of the same party—with
in the family each should be held responsi
ble for his own acts. If Democratic mem
bers of the same party—within the family
each should be held responsible for his
own acts. If Democratic members of Con
gress had voted wrong, that was no reason
why Democrats should strike down a Dem
ocratic Governor if he has done right. Dif
ference on great national questions is very
comnion. We have differed about the Tar
iff, but that is no reason why we should re
ject the State administration if it be a good
one. This argument might do for the
Whigs but it will not answer for Democrats,
If the Democratic party are defeated, it
will be claimed all over the Union as a
Whig triumph, and nothing more or less,
except .that the Whigs, Natives and Know-
Nothings may dispute as to who produced
the result. He said he had not been an
agent in the repeal of the Missouri Com
promise, and those who east their votes for
him did not therefore, by any fair construc
tion, endorse it. He would have organ
ized the territories, could he have controll
ed it, under the act of 1850, and not dis
turbed the Missouri line."

NoTE.—To prevent misconstruction, the
above report relating to the Nebraska ques
tion was submitted to the Governor in
manuscript, and endorsed by him as cor
rect in substance and meaning.
EMBALMED BODIES
_A writer in the London Notes and Quer
ies, furnishes the following interesting ac
count:
"A few weeks ago, in clearing out an
old chapel at Nuneham Regis, Warwick
shire, which had been pulled down, all but
the belfry tower, forty years since, we
thought it necessary to trench the whole
space, that we might more certainly mark
out the boundaries.of the building, as we
wished to restore it in some measure to its
former state. It had been used as a stack
yard and a depository for rubbish by the
tenants of the farm on which it was ever
since its dilapidation. We began to trench
at the west end, and came on a great many
bones and skeletons, from which the cof
fins had crumbled away, till finding the
earth had been moved, we went deeper and
discovered a leaden coffin, quite perfect,
without date or inscription of any kind.
There had been an outer wooden coffin,
which was decayed, but quantities of the
black rotteu wood were all around it. We
cut the lead and folded back the top, so
-as not to destroy it; beneath was a wooden
coffin, in good preservation, and also with
out any inscription.
"As soon as the leaden top was rolled
back, a most overpowering aromatic smell
diffused itself all over the place. We then
unfastened the inner coffin, and found the
body of a man embalmed with great care,
and heaps of rosemary and aromatic leaves
piled over him. On examining the body
more closely, we found that he had been
beheaded. The head was separ,ately- wrapped
up in linen, and the linen shirt which cov
ered the body was drawn; quite over the neck
where the head had beeu cutoff. The head
was laid straight with the body, and where
the joining of the head and neck should have
been it was tied round with a broad black
ribbon. His hands were crossed on his
breast, the wrists were tied together with
black ribbon, and the thumbs were also
tied with black ribbon. He had a
peaked beard and quantity of long brown
hair, curled and clotted with blood, round
his neck. The only mark on anything
about him was on the linen on his chest,
just above which his hands were crossed;
on it were the letters •'T. B.' worked in
black silk.
"On trenching towards the chancel, we
came on four leaden coffins, laid side by
side, with inscriptions on each. One con
tained the body of Francis Earl or Chiches
ter, and Lord Dunsmore, 1653; the next
the body of Audry, Countess of C'hichester,
1652; another the body of Lady Audry
Leigh, their daughter, 1640; and the third
the body of Sir John Anderson, son of La
dy Chichester by her first husband. We
opened the coffin of Lady Audry Leigh, and
found her perfectly embalmed and in en
tire preservation, her flesh quite plump, as
if she were alive, her face very beautiful,
and her hands exceedingly small and no
wasted. She was dressed in fine linen,
trimmed all over with point lace, and to
rows of lace flat across her forhead. She
looked exactly as if she were lying asleeP,
and her beauty was very perfect; even ler
eyelashes and eyebrows were quite perfec,
and her eyes were closed; no part of :her
i i
face or figure was at all fallen in. We al o
opened Lady Chichester's coffin, but wi h
her the embalming had perfectly falle .
She was a skeleton, though the coffin was
filled with aromatic leaves. Her hair, h , -
ever, was as fresh as if she lived; it was
long, thick, and as soft and glossy as tht
of a child, and of a , perfect auburn color.
""In trenching on one side where the
altar had been,_ ye found another leaden
coffin with an inscription. It contained4e
body of a Dame Marie Browne, daughter
of one of the Leighs, and of the lady Marile,
1 daughter of Lord Chancelor Brackley. tliis
body was also quite perfect, and embalmed
principally with a very small coffee colored
seed, with which the coffin was nearly fill
ed, and it also had so powerful a perfume
that it filled the whole place. The linen,
ribbons, &c.. were quite strong and good
in all these instances, and remained so Af
ter exposure to the air. We kept a piece'
out of each coffin, and had it washed witt
out its being at all destroyed. Young Lady
Audry had ear-rings in her ears, bladk
enamelled serpents. The perfume of the
herbs and gums used in embalming
them was so sickening that we were all ill
after inhaling it, and most of the men ein
ployed in digging up the coffins were all
also. My object in sending this is, if posri
-4
ble, to discover who the beheaded tri n
was. The chapel is on the estate of d
John Scott, who inherited , it from , 's
paternal grandmother, the Duchess of
Bucleuch, daughter of the Duke of M015.a
-1
tague; into his family Nuneham Re s,
and other possessions, in Warwicksh e
came by the marriage of his grandfa.t er
with the.daughter of Lord Dunsmore, Flrl
1
of Chichester." , 1
A Pic Nic PARTY SURROUNDED BY
FIRE IN THE Woons.—On the 28th :tilt.,
a party of about 30 persons, males and fe
males, left Albany to gather blackberries,
on one of the tallest of the Berkshire range
of mountains between that city and Boston.
In the afternoon, in a quiet nook, surround=
ed on all sides but one, by towering cliffs,
they sat down to a lunch, and afterwhilds
indulged in songs, tales, dances, and other
past times. All at once, and in the height
of their enjoyment, they discovered theft-
selves almost begirt by a tremendous con-
flagration, and the flames fanned by; .a
strong wind, rapidly .approaching. Alhe
Albany Express says:
Their only way of escape was thrOUgh
the narrow gorge down which the little
brook plunged, and the flaaies.were rapid
ly- approaching both sides of even , that
chance for exit. Not a moment was to lbe
lost ! All rushed instinctively for the mix
row opening before them; leaving behind
them more than half the berries they had
picked. But they found the little hrciok
could run where they could not, and: that
precipices, underbrush, no path, and the
stifling smoke that blew hot in their faces
and blinded their eyes, rendered their pEo
gress slow. And it was slow. The lathes
had to be helped at every step almostl—
ON erhead and nearly all around was a world
of . fire. Before them was just a na:ri ow
way of escape yet, and that might at any
moment be crossed and they complethly
surrounded by a belt of fire !
Eagerly they passed forward, the stoltit
est leading the way, and all encouragf.ng
each other as well as they could. The air
grew thicker and darker. The heat was
dreadful. Sparks and cinders fell like, thin
around them. Their clothing was repeat
edly on fire. The roar and crackle of the
flames was almost deafening, and occasion
ally the fall of a burning tree crashed upon
their ears and adddd to their terrors. -
At last, when some growing too weak
to go further, two had fainted and had to
be carried, and their condition was mo
mentarily- becoming more and more des
perate and hopeless, suddenly the :wind
chopped around and blew a fierce 'blast up
the narrow ravine the party were travel-
Hue All were instantly invigorated, !re
lieved of the smoke in front, and • heartily
encouraged. With a shout they' pressed
forward again, and in about fifteen minutes
succeeded in gaining a point beyond imme
diate danger, and in an hour more. were
on their way home in the railway car.
Their escape was a narrow one indeed.
Not half an hour had elapsed aftet 'their
escape ere the trees and brush of the
ravine were in a blaze, and their trys ing
place was lost in a deluge of fire. ,

HUSBANDS AND WIVES.-^MTS. Denirn,
in one of her capital editorials for thd Bos
ton Olive Branch presents the following
striking contrast between two homes and
two husbands: • '
"I wish I could see a pleasant face. When
I come home. Tired ! Yes! that's I al
ways the cry. I never get tired—oh,mo!
Customers to please—clerks to overhaul—
accounts to cast up ! Hush! I shall hate
that child. Now walk the floor and spoil
him. Bill, hunt up my slippers. Mary,
draw up the rocking chair. Other inen
I
have these things,
comfort. Ris wi is
ready for them. Th ' e's
Saunders, he takes
as the day she was married. If th e's
anything I hate it's a faded woman. Light
the lamps and give me my newspaper. If
I can't read here in peace, I'll go ov to
Sauuder's."
I
"My dear, how tired you look. ive
me that strapping boy. No wonder our
arms ache. Oh ! never mind me. I' al
ways 0. K. at home you know. Take the
rocking chair yourself and just be. com
fortable. Ain't I tired? Why yes II am
—a little, but then I've feasted on fresh
air and sunshine to-day, which you
haven't. Besides,
I don't have such a
lump of perpetual motion as this to man
age." ‘ I
" Bless my soul, how do you live these
hot days? Never mind the room, every
thing looks well enough—you includ e '
except that you are looking; a trifle be tier
than well.. How do you manage to keep
so young and pretty, bonny wife."
Well might the smiling answer be , i . he
freshness and fulness of any husband's
love keeps my heart green.",

pewter, lead, coptter, zinc and iron points, either,

Magnet Lightning rods, have been examined by
many of the most scientific men in the world, who
have pronounced them to he the only rods that
they have ever seen, which are calculated to save
lives and property from destruction by lightning—
among these are Professors Henry M'Murtrie,
James M'Clintock, Walter R. Johnson, of the U.
