- severe thunder storm passed over our city on
Tuesday last. The lightning struck the Varieties
Theatre, making a hole in, the roof; and the fluid,
after p•aanng through thepaint-room, ran into the
ground without doing any other damage.
The steamer Winchester, on her way to Alton,
was caught in this storm, and both of her chimneys
were blown down—one of which fell overboard and
the other on the harricane deck. This storm extend
ed to thetown of Arcadia, in Madison county, and
the lightning struck an outbuilding connected with
the High Schoaof that place, where about 100 pupils

'From all quarters of this State, Illinois and lowa,
we have the gratifying intelligence of an abundant
fruit crop. the weather has been quite favorable,
and the trees are full of blossoms, and the advanced
season leaves but little apprehension of its being
blighted from frost. The only fears now entertained
are the hail storms, which are of frequent occurrence
in this country.
The Surveyor of the port of St. Louis paid into

Yours,
Substantial Patriotirni
In 1780, Gen. Washington had been com
pelled to appeal to individuals for aid in order,
to avoid the establishment of a bank, thr the
supply of the army with provisilins. The sum
of £300,000 was needed, and of this the mem
bers of the Society of the Friendly Sons of St.
Patrick subscribed as fidlows:
"Robert Morris, C. 10,000; Blair McClana
han, £lO,OOO ; Wm. Bingham, £2.000: J. M.
Nesbitt & Co., £.5,000; Richard Peters, £5,000;
Samuel Meredith, £5,000; James Mease, £5,

£2,000 ; John Mease, £5,000 ; thinner, Mur

Caldwell, £2,000; Samuel Caldwell, £l,OOO
John Shee, £2,000 ; Sharp Delany, £2,000 :
Tench Francis, £5,000.
Here were more than £lOO,OOO, Pennsylva
nia currency, equal to $270,000, being more
than one-third of the whole amount raised,
contributed by these gallant Irishmen, a sum,
taking into view the scarcity of money during
that period of the Revolution, of greater value
than three millions of dollars now, and of
which not one dollar was ever repaid the sub
scribers.
These facts may be found in a duodecimo
volume of 112 pages, containing a "brief so
eonut of the Society of the Friendly Sons of
St. Patrick, with biographical notice of some of
the members, and extracts from the minutes,"
prepared and published by order of the Hi
bernian Society.
This is one of those volumes that occasion
ally spring up in our way, to show how much
patriotism and public good owe to social inter
course.
lilt. EDITOR. :—Should It man undertake to answer
the gibberiugs of a monkey, give echo to the cackle
of silly geese, or pay back, in kind, the snort of a
porcine patriarch, he might raise a laugh;—but it
would be against him. au 1 think, and thinking so,
have really little inclination to notice the -stturley
yows"—who on lilt hands, are barking at and ma
king queer noises, to frighten me into silence. Gen
uine Thunder, always wins to itself respect; but we
don't often have it iu terrible reality, front a cess
pool. Some of our senses may be affected by the
emanations from such necessary evils, but not to such
an extent as to produce a tear of their power. Be
sides, we must reflect, that they are productive of
great benefit to the vegetable kingdom, and as such
may be tolerated. It is related by Boccacio, that a
fellow, setting out upon ajuurney, was much annoyed
and irritated by the incessant chirruping of grass
hoppers.. Excited by anger, he was almost every
moment springing trom his home, in - order to silence
summarily, some one or other, of the no.sy crew. In
consequence of this querulous disposition, upon the
part of our traveler, in made but tittle progress, and
sat down at the end of the first day almost within
the shadow of his own domicil—his starting point.—
If I shall take warning from the example of the fool
ish traveler, I think that even my •Thuggish' friends
must commend my discretion—however much they
may curse its application.
. .
like hifalutin bombast of -Slippery Elm," the
puns—(oh ! most execrable !) of our -curly Daniel,"
the two-penny whistle of -Benjamin," taken in con
nection with the babblings of the “Hairy Tailor,"
the inanities of "Hercules," the whinings of the
-bilious Watchmaker," and the lucid, sparkling,
and witty quips of the cricket -.Pettifogger," are in
my opinion only a concert of grasshopper music. I
may err in judgment,—but upon my word, I look at
it in that way. They with one voice, curse, as it
were, with one accord, make ugly faces, and "mow"
in unison their condemnation of "Anon." They
"don't care," not a bit—not they—who "he" is; but
scarcely an old 'pretzel woman' or scissors-grinder
passes unquestioned upon this matter of identity.—
in the meanwhile, 1 pursue "the even tenor of my
wity," have my eye upon the -assassins," and in
fact am only getting ready to go at them, in grand
style. 1 shall examine their claims, jointly and sev
erally, to gentility, decency, honesty—moral and
political—and their title to the respect of their fel
low men, and--the rest of mankind.'' I shall, I
think, prove seine professed patriots to be but miser
able poitroonz; moral reformers, but worn out debau
chees; professors of political honesty, the most de
graded and despicable of toad-eaters; whilst those
who speak of Truth and Candor, as their governing
virtues, shall stand denuded of the cloak which hides
their Hypocrisy. I. think ; sir, that • I can show, by
tracing the ancestral line of some of cur Patriots,
that their progenitors were simply Tories; of others,
the convicted felons of foreign lands; and of not a
few, but beggarly adventurers, the objects of the
pity and compassion of our forefathers. But of these
facts the reflecting world, is already pretty well con
vinced, and the tremendous efforts that the "assas
sins" are now making to get character, prove them
positively.
The conspiracy has in it some dupes, some fools,
and a great many scoundrels. The latter, as a clans,
aspire to office, and how they lill it, is becoming a
matter of history. Our present Legislature, affords
one example,—let the Legislature of Massachusetts
—Mrs. Patterson, and all .—be a second; and let the
municipal government of the City of Philadelphia,
take the third place. Could a more corrupt body be
gathered, even by 'Thuggish' means, than that of
our &ions ? Where could a more debased and cow
ardly set of scoundrels, than the Massachusetts Leg
islature, be drummed up ? and, "oh ! tell me where,"
more disreputable villains, than those who misrule
the Quaker City "Let Americans rule America!"
Yea ! surely, let Americans rule ! true Americans—
such as prove themselves by love and respect for btu
Constitution and our Laws,—such as have honesty,
and decency of character to support them,—not cut
throats, nor assassins, the villainous dregs of society;
nor whining, smooth-faced, nasal-toned Pharisees,
who seem "to worship (Sod for 'spite." Not loud
mouthed, hair-brained fools—a disgrace to them
selves, and the people they represent. Not such, does
oar Country need in her Councils, but men whose
lives have not been an embodiment of every crime
under the sun. What gave birth to this monster—
this 4i'-crate ret track-on"—to quote the words of an
illustrious Thug The desire of gain—a disposition
to filch from the public crib—Avarice—open and un
disguised Avarice ! taking to itself, us a hand-maiden,
Bigotry ! Do you ask for proofs? Ask of our Solons,
'why so many new charters for bogus Banks? Who
miters ? who bleeds ? whose pockets are pouched with
the rag currency ? Who stilled the investigation with
regard to bribery; and who voted to themselves two
'hundred dollars each, from the public purse ?
Shame ! Shame ! And this assumes toitself the
name of a Reform Legislature,—an American Legis-
Haute ! A foul desecration of the name—a miser
able hoax—a mean assumption of honorable
character for, dishonorable purposes. They say
that there is "honor among thieves." The pro
position is entirely false when applied to
those known as "Thugs ;" no such proverb finds
application among them. No sir, Dishonesty has
•taken another name, it is--"Thuggism" ! Pertinent
'to this, would be a a few words with regard to the
conduct of certain "Thug" officials, in the infliction,
collection, and disbursement of certain fines, mulcts
and penalties, for the violation of Sunday and
License laws ; no return of which has, as far as
my knowledge extends, appeared in the report of
the County Treasurer. .1. defer to a future time,
the further consideration of this matter; but as
Thug : dem must "come out of its hole," no hook
shall be lost that may be turned to account.
Allow me, Mr. Editor, in conclusion to remark,
that in my opinion, no better subject for the student
of nature, can offer than the phenomenon of Thug
gism. Let him take' his stand at the vomitory
of a lodge, and he shall have food for thought. There
he shall see what, - under the influence of 'Bigotry
and Ignorance, becomes of poor human nature—
therejwhat that noblest of animals, man may become,
when fettered by the degradation of membership
with oath 2 bound conapiraoy, and midnight treason.
There shall he see those whom, perhaps, under hap , '
pier auspices, he 'may have hailed as brethren ;
ready now to -become in fact, at the bidding of
bigotry and treason, what they are in principle—
assassins—a standing curse upon society. "Virtuous
indignation" may attempt to reprove my strong
language. Let reproof come from a pure sourcko—
let ma be convinced of offence . against propriety—
, and I ahall respect it. Let my reprover be a - man
—an honest man—not a Thug, a creature lost to all
sense of honor—a liar by open Profession. 'That's all,

se" The Posh:l:taster of New Orleans, Mr.
Kendall, was •arrested on Tuesday last, on a
charge of purloining letters containing money
to the amount of $6OO. So says the Telegraph
—but we apprehend either the intelligence is
wrong, or there is some mistake in the charge.
We hardly suppose a man occupying such a
position—thatotTostmaster in one of the large
cities of the Union—would sacrifice himself
for the petty sum of $6OO If he intended to
commit the crime of embezzlement, he would
have went it on a much larger scale, on, the
Galphin principle—and taken thousandti in
stead of hundreds—at least it strikes our mind
in that way.

OLD GUARD
fie,. The German papers have a queer bit
of news that we have nut seen in English
prints. They state that upon .the death of
the Emperor Nicholas, decomposition of the
body was so rapid that it was found necessary,
in order to preserve the royal corpse during
the two weeks requisite for the ceremonies:
"to cut off the head and fit it to another
body" in a better condition than the august
carrion of the Czar. Some remark was
elicited among those not in the secret by the
slightness of the body, "but this apparent
falling off was supposed to be accounted for
by the severe illness which- had preceded his
death.

New Advertise ment.--CaItarBITILDING Lora
—A 'HOME WITHIN TELE REACH OP EVERY MAN
BY PAYING A WEEK...—ONE MORE OPPORTUNI
TY I!—Thiilding Lots at 5135 i payable one dollar a week,
located in the mast eligible and Improving part of Lancas
ter. In' situation they are immediately within the improve.
merits, fronting upon the test main, streets, as follows:
Chesnut, Walnut, Fulton, Marion Ann, Frank li n, Mar.
shall and Marion streets. A more desirable and beautiful
locality cannot be found by persons wishing to wive their
money or have a pleasant home of their own near their
business. It is a known tact that in this direction prop
erty within the past two years has rapidly improved, and
either for the purpose of an investment or residence cannot
Ibe excelled. An opportunity is now presented to all in
dustrious persons to obtain a holfie and a freehold upon
terms which were never before offered, and at a price which
for cheapness is unprecedented. The Lots being payable
in the small sum of one dollar a week, every workingman
has a chance. He would scarcely miss the outlay, whilst
he would be paving his way to a competency.
There can be no better means of economizing than thi s
the ground is purchased at Its present value, and judging
from past experience and the past ratio of increase, It will
be worth by the time it is paid for, three times its present
price. at that time man can have a Lot of his own and
rid himself of his landlord, or by' means of these small
savings scarcely noticed, together with the accumulation
of profits, have a sum sufficient to start him In business.
Many who have made fortunes would never have been
worth a cent, if by accident or otherwise they had not
made a commencement and gathered together a small sum;
and subsidiary to this we may well my, that the founda
tion of wealth is Investment in rest estate. If we look
around amongst all our acquaintances who have attained
an Independence, we will dud it done through their In
vesting in real property; it is the solid stepping stone to
prosperity, one which, amid all the fluctuations of the
times, and the panic of the money market, is,permanent
and secure r; or in other words "is still there." Those re
marks are appilEable to every circumstance of life. The
Lots are 22 feet front, and from 90 to 160 feet in depth, all
running upon back alleys.
The demand has been so great that hundreds have al
ready been sold—enough to cover the whole property with
improvements in a short timer During the month of July,
or the beginning of August, the principal streets will be
thrown open. Under these circumstances the mind may
readily conceive the rapid rise In value which will take
place. One lot will mutually tend to improve the other.
On account of the flue situation of this laud, and its su
perior cheapness, such an opportunity as this can never
be presented again lu the city of Lancaster; and the sales
of these have been so very numertaffs that they will soon
be entirely disposed of and withdrawn from the market.
By early application Lots can be purchased at the office

The Greatest ➢ledlcal Discovery of the
Age.
Dr. KENNEDY, of Roxbury has discovered, in one of our
common pasture weeds, a remedy that cures
EVERY RIND OF RUMOR,
from the worst Scrofula down ton common pimple.
He has tried it in over 1100 cases, and never failed except
in two cases, (both thunder humor.) He has now In his
possession over two hundred certificates of its virtue, all
within twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing sore mouth.
One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of Pimples
on the face.
JOHN SILISzLER,
Justice of the Peace.
Two to three bottles will clear the system of Blies.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst canker in
the mouth or stomach.
Three to tire bottles are warranted to cure the worst case
of Erysipelas.
One to two bottles are warranted to cure all humor in
the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to core running of the ears
and blotches among the hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and
running ulcers.
One bottle will cure scaly corruption of the skin.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of ringworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most des
perate case of rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the salt
rheum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of scrofula.
A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and
a perfect cure is warranted when the above quantity is
taken.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this iu the
vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of it in every case.—
So sure as water will extinguish, fire, so sure milli this
cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it, but that sold an-
other; atter a trial it always speak for itself. There are
two things about this herb that appear to me surprising;
first that it grows in our pastures, in some places quite
plentiful, and yet its value has never been known until I
discovered it iu 18,16—second that It should cure all kinds
of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise, and great
popularity of the discovery. I will state that in April,
1853, Lpeddled it and sold about six bottles par day—lu
April, 1854, I sold over one thousand bottles per day of It.
Some of the wholesale Drugglrts who have been in the
business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing In the
annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a
universal praise of it from all quarters.
In my own practice I always kept It strictly for humors
—but since Its introduction as a general family medicine
great and wonderful virtues have been found in It that I
never suspected.
Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease which was al
ways considered Incurable, have been cured by a few bot
tles. 0, what a mercy if It prove effectual in all cases of
that awful malady—there are but few who have seen more
of it than I have.
I know of several 'cases of Dropsy, all of them aged peo
ple cured by it. For the various diseases of the Liver, Sick
Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague, Pain In
the side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in diseases
of the Kidneys, &c., the discovery.has done more good than
any medicine.ever known.
No change of diet ever nerPiaary—eat the best you get
and enough of It.

Spring rend Summer Clothing.—Short floats
with long sleeves, long sleeves and chart Coats. PAN
TALOONS that have actually got legs • • them, but there
appears to be no allowance for any other convenience.—
I .ESTS that positively have holes where thearms may rest
at ease, but no danger of chafing the goods, as the muslin
of the back extends sufficiently Into the body to supply
the deficiency of material. Gentlemen who are in want of
clothing had better inquire before they buy of those who
are not mechanics. Some men follow a trade they never
learned. They cannot feel the Mechanic's honest pride
and high ambition to excel in his legitimate busi
ness. Every man to his own trade Is the old ad
age. The Clothing business in particulai, is beset ip
with individuals who were formerly Merchants,
Pedlars, Tinkers and traders, who are now following a trade
they never learned. We always feel happy when we see
the Mechanic raise himself superior to those Vandals in
business. The extensive business done at the
Lancaster Clothing Bazaar
this season is particularly gratifying because the Proprie
tor (Joseru Goanisr) isnot only a Gentleman, but a Me
chanic, who has risen to the highest point of Tame, always
maintaining his reputation for the manufacture of superi
or clothing on the principle of large sales and small profits.
We recommend all ia want of good and cheap clothing' to
