Si. Leine, October 8, 1855.
We have had most remarkable weather daring the.
week just closed. On Tuesday and Wednesday last
it turned extremely cold, and heavy white fiesta
were observed by those who rose eaily,'and on Fri
day afternoon, the sth inst., quite a snow storm vis
ited us, and continued for several hoard. In many
places, where the ground was dry, it was fully a quar
ter of an inch in depth. This is the earliest snow
that has ever been known to have fallen in this
neighborhood—nearly two months earlier than last
season. The probabilities are that we will have a
long and hard winter. The atmosphere to-day is
very cold, and a fire feels quite comfortable. Coal,
in consequence, has advanced to 15a18c per bushel.
There has been a slight advance in some of the lead
ing staples of our market. Flour and wheat is active
—the former readily commands $8,25 6,82 i for unin
vpected or guaranteed, whilst fancy favorite brands
are selling at $7,50a7,75 per bbl. Wheat from 81,00
to 1,45, as in quality; corn 57a58c; oats 32a38ic; su
gar tie per lb.; molasses .36a30c per gallon; potatoes
from 3u to 55c per bushel.
Country merchants are still purchasing their fall
and winter stocks, and every department of trade is
quite active. The rivers are also in fair navigable
condition.
Early on Wednesday morning last,a fire broke
out in a coffee house on Main street—the upper
floors being occupied as a boarding house, and in a
few minutes the inmates were cut off from escape by
the stairway. The boarders, therefore, were cord
pelled,to make their escape by jumping out of the
second - and third story windows. Two amen, one of
them lying ill in bed at the time, were burnt with
the building. Their bodies were taken from the
rains, three of four hours after,•charred and burned
in a most shocking manner. They were both French
men. It is thought that others perished in the flames,
as several are missing, and nothing of them can be
found. The building and contents were entirely
consumed, and the adjoining houses much damaged.
On Thursday last a tierman shoemaker and his
wife got into , a family quarrel, when the husband
- seized a knife and stabbed his wife with it five or
six times, and fled to a pond near hy„jumped in for
the purpose of drowning himself, but his faithful
New Foundland dog plunged in after him, and drag
ged him to the shore, when the inhuman wretch
killed the dog with the same knife he had stabbed
his wife with, and again leaped into the water, and
sunk to the bottom. When the flictr3 wore made
known, the pond was dragged and the body recover
ed. The woman is still living, but no hopes of her
recovery.
An unknown man was also found, a few miles
from the city, suspended by the neck to a fence,
with his knees touching the ground. Life was ex
tinct. Some marks tatooial in India ink were upon
his arms, indicating that he had been a sailor.
The Intelligencer chronicles, with great gusto, the
`arrival in this city, of the Hun. Miss Murray, mis
tress of the lied Chamber to Queen Victoria. She io
raid to be in pursuit of her favorite study, Geology'
She is stopping with Dr. C. A. Pope.
The steamer "F. K. Jr.," burnt, to the water's
edge, iu Yazoo river, on Tuesday, the 24th ult. The
lasfengers and crew, were obliged to jump overboard
to save themselves front the flames, and were rescued
by clinging to the cotton bales that had been thrown
into the river. The boat and cargo are a total loss.
She was freighted with 312 bales of cotton.
Lewis M. Baldwin, OF Cooktown, Pa., died in this
city on the 30th tilt., at the residence of his brother.
Ho was in his 45th year.
At Kirkwood, a Tow miles from this city, on the
24.1 inst., Elizabeth Wheeler, of Pa., in the 74th year
of her age.
The Tennessee papers contain an account of an
outrage and murder of a white woman, committed
by a negro, near Sparta, in that State. The culprit
was taken from the jail by an exasperated populace,
and, after confessing the deed, hung him on the limb
of a tree.
The yellow fever has abated at Now Orleans, but
at Vicksburg it is on the increase. In Canton, Miss.,
the epidemic was prevailing ton considerable extent,
and at the town of Waterproof, in a population of
115, there had been 80 oases, and many deaths. At
Memphis, it is said to be raging fearfully, and ap
prehensions are entertained that it will extend still
further up. Thin spell of cold weather, however,
will have a favorable effect, and in all probability
arrest its further prevalence.
From all accounts heavy frosts have been experi
enced in lowa, Illinois and this State, but from the
best information we believe the corn is generally
safe, but the tobacco crop, in some sections, is sup
posed to be in some danger.
The Kansas election took place on Monday last,
mid passed off without any disturbance, as no inter
est, UllateVer, was reanimated in the result. Gen.
Whitfield, the Pro-Slavery candidate. had no oppo
sition, and,polled all the totes. The Free Soil party
. did not go to the polls, but hold their election to
morrow. The Shawnee Indians voted for Whitfield.
In Leavenworth county, out of 802 votes, 'Whitfield
got 800: Gov. Shannon,
the Free State man, voted
the slavery ticket out and out—he is fbr Slavery in
Kansas, and the laws as enacted by the Legislature
illegally in session—all of which Gov. Reeder vetoed.
Gov. Reeder is still in Kansas Two Delegates will
be sent from Kansas, when Congress will have to
decide the validity of the election. Gov. Reeder
' will be voted for to-morrow.
Judge Trumbull, one of the Senators from Illinois,
made a speech in ,Alton, a few days since, in reply
to one of Bon. S. A. Douglas, delivered some tune
ago. I hare not' seen the reply, but if Trumbull's
speech was tinged with the same language as that
used by the famous or infamous Dr. McDowell, of
this city, Judge Douglas, in place of losing any of
Ins former popularity, will gain immensely from the
attacks of such celebrated characters. •
The taking of the census of Muscatine,lowa, has
just been completed, and showsthat that flourishing
city now contains 7,300 inhabitants—going an in
crease of 2200 in a little over a year.
Politicians are beinning to show their hands as
io their "first choice"for the next Presidential can
didate. ' Col. Benton is no doubt the "first choice"
.of a majority of the people of this State, but as he is
opposed to Conventions, will not, as a matter of
course, be a candidate in the National Convention,
to be held at Cincinnati, in June next; and as it is
necessary that union and harmony of action should
prevail in the Democratic party, his friends will no
doubt acquiesce in, and endorse the nominee of that
body. In conversation with some of his fast and
best friends, I learn that "Pennsylvania's Favorite
Son" is their "first choice," proyided Col... Benton
refuses to allow his name Co be used in the Conven
tion. The Hon. James Buchanan stands high in the
Democratic party of the West and South, and a pow
erful support will come from these sections in his
favor, which will no doubt tell in the Cincinnati
Convention. The delegates from Missouri aro cer
tain for the distinguished son of the Ruston° State
—which is by right, and ought to have the next
President, and of we are to judge from the signs of
the times, still have, in the person of the Hon. Jas.
Buchanan. The Democracy are ripe for the result,
and will vote as one man forßrcuaxesi and Borr,En!

quite gray, I was induced, some six weeks since. to make
trial of your Hair Restorative. I have used Ina than two
bottles, but the gray hairs have all disappeared: and al
though my hair has not fully attained its original color,
yet the process of change is gradually going on, and I
have great hopes that, in a short time, my hair will be us
dark as formerly. I have also been much gratified at the
healthy moisture and vigor of the hair, which, before,
was harsh and dry, and it has ceased to come out as no.
merly. Respectfully yours,
Poor. WOOD:—My hair commenced falling elf some three
or fours years since, and continued to do so until I be
came quite bald. I tried all the popular remedies of the
day, but to no effect; at last 1 was induced to use your
celebrated Hair Restorative, and am very happy to say it
is doing wonders. I have now a fine growth of young
hair, and cheerfully recommend Its use to all similarly af.

r There is a rumor abroad among Druggists and
others who interest themselves in a manner calculat

who introduced the Electric Oil into our city, paid
persons to go to the respective Drug stores to enquire
for the article after they had distributed their circu

This rumor being calculated to attach the idea of
of humbug to the medicine, and thereby injure the

mpany.—letter about the land and resourcos, from
e resident. The following is a totter received from Squire
li.C. Sandhi, 'who has made St. Mary's his riddance for a
length of time, and has bad great baffles Err becoming
acquainted with the laird: lie has been a justice of the
peace, commissioner, county surveyor,
or been in some
capacity ever since he resided there:
ltaeoxvittit, Sep. 11, 1856.
Charles K. Landis, FN.—Dear Sir ; Yours, dated Phila
dabble, Bth inst., came to band an hour ago, and I hasten
to reply. You desire in it a true statement or description
of the laud, du, Aboat,St.. Mary's. in Elk county.. I am
happy to be able to give you a full description, as by liv.
km In , the place for the last five viers, as also uming feu.
queut occasionsto explore the lariat and its mineral worth.
I hare become thoroughly acquainted with the value of
the land and its mineral resources. As an agricultural
country, it surpassee any lend, In this or adjacent coun
ties. It producer the best of rye, oorn,,pats, potatoes and
grass. Last year, when there was a general failure of crops
in Eastern Pennsylvania, ISN Mary's hill an abundant
harvest, and whilst scarcity prevailed everywhere. else,
there was abundance here. Thousands of dollars' worth
of - produce was sold in this settlement last year. It is a
good limestone soil; limestone is found, in abundance, so
that the land can at any time be improved by liming.—
Abundance of coal is found everywhere in these lands; I
have, although wood 'is so plenty, for the last two years
used nothing but coal fie my family use. I know of more
than ten or twelve different coal banks opened within a
short distance of St. Mary's. They all average from four
to six feet vein, running in general Into the hills, or rath
er workingmpwards, so that water never can disturb them.
There is also abundance of iten ore. The Kidney rock,
and some pipe ore has been found. At the base of hills
torn away by the ravines, I can in many places get lumps
of ore weighing from fire hundred to six hundred pounds,
of the best of rock ore. There is also abundance of tire
proof clay lying in strata between the coal and limestone.
The northern part of the St. Mary's tract abounds in the
best of cherry timber and ash; such is the quantity, that
from fifteen to thirty thousand feet of lumber can be
manufactured from the acre. The southern pert Is mostly
fir, pine and hemlock.
The water powers In the various streams cannot be sur
passed; they are on the Elk 'creek, East Trout run, South
east creek, West creek, Dent's run, North Crooked creek,
east branch of the Clarion river, Silver Creek and Kersey
run. All these streams possess first rate mill sites; and
the day will not be far distant when every stream will be
tilled with manufactories of some sort. The Sunbury and
Erie railroad passes directly through the whole of this
land—and when once finished, nothing is able to compete
with this section of the State.
We here have the health; we have the soil for the hus
bandman; we have the mineral for the manufacturer; we
have any quantity of coal; wo have immense forests of the
choicest and best of timber, and, in fact, nothing Is want.
lug, when this road is completed, to make this-one of the
wealthiest portions of the State. To illustrate the place
properly to you, you must think that eleven years ago not
a tree was cut here, Many of the people who settled here
were entire unacquainted with clearing land; now they
possess good farms, and the log huts are giving way to
magnificent buildings, and it Is proverbial that every man
is getting well off. We , now are the support of all the
neighboring lumber factorics=and, as it were, St. Mary's
is the cupboard of the whole county. There Is now about
seven thousand acres clear, and we number over twenty
five hundred souls, and in many respects we aro much
ahead of any of the adjacent towns and counties although
much older In years than we. Any further information
you desire will be cheerfully given.
Truly yours, • E. C. SCIIULTZ.

per week; 50 acres for $4OO.

Ridgway Farm and Agricultural Com
quny.—A Farm within the reach of every Alan.—
Pennsylvania Land. Twenty-seven thousand acres of good
land have been purchased, with the intention of giving a
Farm of twenty-five Acres for each share, payable by
Instalments of one dollar a week.
It Is located in the county of Elk, where a junction will
soon be formed by four railroads, Immediately connecting
it, with Its great agricultural and coal resources, with Erie,
Dunkirk, Buffalo, Rochester and all the cities on the Lakes.
Also a road leading directly to N. York, one directly from
this property to Philadelphia and Intermediate places, one
directly from this property to Pittsburg, and one directly
from this property connecting with the Western roads,
forming the grandest concentration of railroads upon any
one splus in Pennsylvania, tending at once to develop its
Immense agricultural and coal resources. The soil is not
surpassed In richness by any iu the State. It is divided
-I.—lnto farms or shares of twenty-live Acres, at the
price of two hundred dollars, which Is. payable In instal
ments of one dollar Per week.
11.—Into farms or half shares of twelve ands half acres,
at the price of $lOO payable in instalments of two dollars
ienionth, or by the week.
Besides this, there is a valuable saw mill upon the prop.
erty, and one hundred & fifty lots in thc i ihriving town of
St. Mary's, which the subscribers get.
This originally farmed part of a large trot, a great por
tion of which was settled by industrious and educated
Germans, numbering some twenty-live hundred. They se,
tested the land on account of Its agricultural and mineral
wealth, which alone is an indisputable evidence of the
facts, as they are well known to be superior judges upon
these subjects. They went there some twelve yearn ago,
and they now have a thriving and beautiful settlement,
which is laid off in regular rotations of fine farms, St.
Mary's is the tows of the settlement, and Is rapidly in
creasing in population. It has hotels as good as any in
the elate—line stores—a college, where the highest brandi
es of education are taught, both literary and musical—saw
mills, grist mills, coach (manufactories, and every thing
com.eivable'to :Add wealth and prosperity to the place.—
The laud of the company surrounds this town, and all the
improvements, thereby reaping the benefits, and present.
ing a splendid opportunity for settlement. Limestone
abounds. This Is both au evidence of the quality of the
soil sod a great fertilizer. At St. Mary's It sells at from
ton to twelve rents a bushel, burnt.
The timber Is of great value, and consists of Cherry, Ash,
Chesnut, Pine, Cab and Hemlock, all of primeval growth,
of great site, and towering from eighty to a hundred and
twenty feet high. That which the stockholders do not.
want will be sold to the timber merchants, with conditions
to cut It in a certain time. This will clear the hand, and
bring a large revenue into the treasury, which will go to
the reduction of the price of the farms.
This explains its agricultural resources. Itut there is
another consideration of equal, it not greater, importance.
The land is one great bed of coal. Upon this property it is
literally inexhaustible. By taking a glance at the latest
map, first at this locality, and then over the State, It will
be found to possess the grandest features of prosperity,
Im
proveinout, and almost immediate development. It is en. I
perior to any other. It is the only place having the great
concentration of railroade, by which New York, the Lakes,
Philadelphia and Pittsburg are at its doors. Vivre is no
coal in Nest York, and on account of its northernly situa
tion, f,t, possesses the advantage of nearness. This is des
tined to become the Pottsville of that portion of the State.
The prospect iu the future.for tills place exceeds any that
Pottsville ever had; and there, laud which a few years ago
was selling at five and ten dollars an acre, when the rail
road opened its mines sold fur from two to live hundred
dollars an acre. Ttitse are facts. Those who are ignorant,
let them make inquiry. Improvement Is still progressing.
So arrive at the truth. Judge the future by the past, and
thee what will this land be It is proper that reason
should give the answer.
The Sunbury and Erie Railroad, of which Gov. Bigler
Is President, and which connects this land with the Lakes
and Philadelphia, and the Allegheny Valley Railroad, of
which flov. Johnkflh is President, connecting this land
with Pittsburg, are In rapid course of completion, and up
on a great extent the locomotives are running. The refer-
Hoes which suggest themselves upon this subject are
these—lt takes two hundred weeks to pay Inc the farms.
They will be distributed when they are half paid fur. By
that time the railroads will be finished. That will be
early enough for all practical purposes. The advantage
of buying it before their completion is evident. When
that Is done property will go up one hundred per cent.
Speculation in coal would at ones run it up to such a
price no would make it impossible to obtain for agricul
tural purposes. We now get It without paying the then
improved price, and the stockholders will enjoy the rise.
A tract of about two thousand acres will be laid off at
once, and ready by next Spring, in order that who
wish to farm immediately can do so.
Friends and relatives,
as well as those having more than
one share, can have their farms together.
An Improvement Department will also he connected
with the company. By this means, in order to accommo
date those who aro unable to give their personal atten
tion to fencing and preparation, or desire to rent their
properties out instead of residing there, arrangements can
be made to place each farm in complete order, so as to he
ready for cultivatiou. After the farms have been ail sold,
stockholders eau have manure furnished, houses built,
and other work done upon credit, they securing the pay
ment to the company within a reasonable time, so that a
man in the first place receives a farm at the lowest possi
ble price, and thesis afforded every, assistance - in placing
It under crops.
These embrace the principle features, and an excellent
opportunity is now offered for a man to obtain a home
for himself, his wife and children, either at the present
or time to come. Many business men, mechanics, and
workingmen upon farms who save several dollars a month,
can, by thus uniting together, becoMe freeholders, whilst
they scarcely miss the outlay, and at leas expense than
the annual cost of tobacco or the most trifling luxuries.
A. saving and purchase of this kind cat nothing, and con
stantly increase in vain.. In case of sickness or misfor-
tune by which he Is' thrown out or employment, he has
a home to go to, where he cau always make a good liv
ing. The title is unexceptionably good--one of the old
