Sr. Louts, July 21, 1850.
We have had excessively hot weather during. the entire
week, and note drop of rain has fallen; every thing bi
dried and parched—the crops in all sections are suffering ;
and unless we shortly have rain a very deficient harvest
may be anticipated. Our produce market is extremely
dull, and business generally is unusually light. The wa
ter in the various rivers continues to recede, except the
Missouri, which is in fair navigable condition. Most ex
cellent health prevails among our citizens; we believe there
has not been a cue of cholera this season. Nothing of to
cal interest has transpired since our last, except, that sev
eral important arrests have beet( made within the last two
or three days. Nathaniel Childs, jr., (the same individual
who you will remember was charged with the embezzle
ment of $121,000 from the Missouri Bank some four or five
years since}—was arrested on Saturday charged with oh.
tabling goods under false pretenses, and required to give
$l,OOO bail for his appearance at the next term of the Crim
inal Conti. His brother, D. J. Childs, was arrested at the
gams time, charged with forgers; and required to give
000 security. The particulars of these cases are not yet
made public—the men under arrest stood as telpf-table eit •
liens; one, Nathaniel, and we believe both, are leaders in
the church of which they are pious members.
Yon will• also remember that we noted some time sin.m ,
the arrest of Capt. Edwin Patti on a charge of forgery, and
we then stated be was connected with wealthy relatives,
and that the probabilities were the matter would be
"hushed up." Ile was arrested In Galena and brought
back to this city by an officer, and upon his arrival hero it

Three men, the brothers Wetmore and Wolf, started to

EXPLAZiATION.-133' your last paper I perceive that -01 d
Huard" has offended some Democrats in the City of Wash
ington, by the writing of a paragraph relative to the ad-
mission, into the Cincinnati Cony ent io n,bf the An t i-Ben t ,
Delegates. This offense was not intended, and we are sorry I
the paragraph was net properly understood. It is not our
object or our wish to detract a single vote from the stand
ard bearers, but on the other hand to do all lu our power !
to strengthen the party. It is scarcely worth while going
into a detailed explanation folly that paragraph was writ
ten,
but let it suffice, it was not dictated by any of Mr. Bu.
'Aimas friends other than She writer, and we do not ask
the editor of the fated igencer to stand responsible for it or
anything else we may write. We haven little private fight
out here in the woods, and we think just as you do, Mr.
Editor, as regards the •'meddlesome interference" of anoth
er State with the politics of our own—we can do our own
fighting here, and oak no outsiders for Md. Had that good
Democratic rule been strictly adhered to, the paragraph
which seems to have caused a little vexation in certain
quarters, would never have found its way into Penosylva_
nla. But when papers in Washington city take upon
themselves the task of advising the people of this State
who are Democrats and who are not, and who are sincere
and who are not sincere In their advocacy of the Democratic
party, we think they are Overstepping their bounds.
If this paragraph has offended certain persons In Wash
ington, what do you suppose was the effect of the Wish
futon Union's articles relative to our State and citizens?
People that live in glass houses should never throw stones.
They broke our windows brat, and no's.. too sensitive not
to throw back. We hare not seen the Sentincrs remarks,
but infer from your article that Mr. Buchanan is censured
for what we wrote. Thiele wrong, unfair as well as ungen
erous. Mr. Buchanan does not pay us for advocatiug his
claims, neither does any one else; we write the events of
the day and express oueviews, without remuneration from
any source.
We here in Missouri are desirous of throwing this State
for Buchanan, and for that purpose are seeking a union of
the Democratic forces; but we never can succeed in effecting
that unioci, if the Washington papers interfere with our
State politics and dictate to this aud that wing of the party.
We hope this explanation will prove satisfactory to our
friends in Washington, who all wish to attain the same
end—the election of Buchanan and Breekinridge. We
know James Buchanan to be a statesman second to none
in the country, and have worked for his nomination, not
only in 1856 but In 's2—and in fact ever since we were
able to lisp his name wei . e taught to hurrah for "Penn
sylvania's Favorite Son;" and there are hundreds of Penn
sylvanians In this State—nearly all of whom support Col.
Benton, because he advocates Buchanan's claims' to the
Presidency—who have expressed themselves astonished at
the Washington Cnon's course. If we and many other
Pennsylvanians are not sincere, who ore the friends of
James Buchanan!
We for ono are willing to bury the hatchet," and sub.
wit to most any sacrifice, to thro'W. this State for Buchanan
and Breckinridge, which we can do by 15,000 majority if a
union can be effected.

Yours, OLD GUARD.
WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
To the Editors of the Intelligencer, dated
Wasimiatox. July 25th, 1856.
The papers have informed you, that both Houses of Con
gress have agreed to a final adjournment on the ISth of
August next. From the business consummated by the ac
tion of the dark-republican majority of the House, it mat

Mr. Banks their Speaker, in the State of Maine, traitorously

who agree and vote with Min in sentiment. We do not
believe, that any patriotic Pennsylvanian will further sus

aentimeuts, and men too, who have sustained Mr. Banks
on the contrary, we think the people will sustain the Uni•

those from their service, now in Congress, who sustain

Banks and uphold him In his treasonable design agaird
the integrity of the Union. Mr. Banks and his friend s
and supporters, must repent long and seriously before ttiey
can make amends fur their political misconduct for the last
two years.
Last week,'when the dark•ltepnblian abolition majority
of the House, voted Col. J. C. Al.Ltf. of Illinois, out of hi s
uat, contrary to evidence and the fact of his election in
Illinois, the same divenion majority misused to vote Father
Arther, the contestant, the seat they have declared vacant.
If It was proper to vote Col. Attu; out gni: scot, the major
ity that consummated this open and palpable fraud upon
the people of Illinois, bad a perfect right to continue that
fraud by voting Ile. Archer into (he seat, for certainly either
Mr. Allen or Mr. Archer was elected to a neat in the 34th
Congress. But, the troth is, the abolition sectiooal
disn
nlsniats, in voting 3lr. Allen out of Congress, could not as
a majority, with the evidence of guilt before them,flogronti
delicto commit the double crime of voting Mr. Archer in
the seat; therefore the election is dent back to the people of

Hessen. Editors, If a great wrong had not been committed
against the elective franchise, and the people robbed of
their rights, in the action of the majority of the House of
Representatives, by the people of Illinois being deprived of
the services of their rightfully elected representative.—
However, Col. Allen will be returned to Congress by a
largely increased vote, over his former election, and then
he will extend to his persecutors a full share of his compli
ments.
Judge Birrust, of the Senate, has this week introduced
a new Bill, allowing compensation to members of both
Houses of Congress. The bill is a very important one, and
one calculated to work salutary reform In the business of
Congress. This new bill allows to members an annual
salary of three thousand dollars, and homey casts per mile
as compensation, coming to and returning from the seat of
government. This sum is not a whit too much, when one
t akes into consideration the immense sacrifice made by
members, of business and comforts at home, for a session
in Congress. Also the great advantage that will accrue to
the public interest, will be so manifested, in the business
before Congress, that the new bill will act as a charm in
consummating and perfecting all important hills fora very
early decision.
The Senate this week, are also engaged in passing many
internal improvement bills fur the Ayers and harbors on
the Lakes. It iF not to be expected that these Mlle will
receive the signature of the President. should they pass
both (louses of Congress.
Thu House, that is the dark-republican majority, have
unmated Mr. Gallegos, the delegate from New Mexico, and
have also reported a resolution, that Gen. Whitfield is not
entitled to his seat as delegate from Kansas. This report
corning front the Committee on Elections is equivalent to
its adoption. as it is from Mr. Washburne, of Maine, who
we all know, is an avowed abolitionist, and at the same
time, entertaining disunion sett liniZuts. Gen. Whitfield
stands but a poor chemoe to retain his seat, now that Mr.
Washburne, of Maine, has spoken against him. The House
majority have denied the military appropriation bill, all
supplies for the army, and have abrogated the laws of
Kansas, so tar as the Government of the U. S. is concerned.
Tie object of the majority of Nock- republicans, is evidently
to dismember the Union. Every day's experience, prove
that they are becoming desperate, end by degrees their
treason against the laws of Congress on the Kansas and
Slavery question are being made manitost in their dower.

A Word to our Adopted Citizens
The renwrylvanian of Wednesday week has
a powerful and truthful appeal to the German
and Irish citizens of the country, from which.
we make the fulluwing exit act :
We are well aware that hopes :ire indulged,
in certain quarters, that our German fellow
citizens, especially those who have immigrated
within the last few years, will allow them
selves to be misled because Fremont is hostile
to the domestic institutions of the South, and
this is the chord upon which Mr. Sumner and
Mr. Seward so industriously play. But it
will presently become a grave question wheth
er adopted citizens are willing to second these
arch-demagogues in the quixotic experiment
of trying to improve the condition of the slave,
by a series of exciting and dangerous agita
tions; or whether they will adopt the wise
course and oppose the public and practical
identity of Fremont with those men, who are
tne sworn enemies of themselves, of their
father-land and of the religion which many of
them profess. In order to show exactly
what estimate these Abolitionists place upon
the adopted citizen, it may be well to remind
the latter, that Mr. Seward, several years ago,
offered to Ex-Governor Smith, of Virginia, to
exchange a given number of white foreign
born citizens, then residents of New York, for
a like number of Virginia free negroes—the
negroes to go to the city of New York and the
adopted citizens to go to Virginia. Gov. Smith
has frequently stated that Mr. Seward, now
and then the professed friend of the adopted
citizen, was quite sure that the bargain would
result advantageously to the prosperity of the
great commercial metropolis of New York.—
And only lately, within the last six months,
the New York Tribune, also professing to be
the friend of the adopted citizen, came out in
au article to show that Negroes and Irishmen
are exactly alike in impulses, feelings, wants,
sympathies, instincts and sentiments. We
give the language of the Triblqw and defy
contradiction:
NEGROES AND IRISEIMEN:— .. The emigration northward,
now going on from Virginia, springs from exactly the
same causes with the emigration from Ireland to America;
and as that has, eo the-Virginia emigration will be likely
to go on with increasing energy, till a few yearn hence it
may reach a point quite beyond anything now complained
of; nor, indeed, do we imagine that any laws or other con
nivances can check it till the fire begins to die out for
want of material. The Negroes, like the Irish, find them
selves vary uncomfortable at home. Hard work, no wag.,
and tlgfrequent use of the cowhide, make them uneasy.—
These the negroes realize to be disagreeable things without
the nteessity of any abolition emissary to put the idea into
their leads. They have heard, too, like the Irish of a free
county, where wages are high, where one man, in the eye
of the law at least, is just as good as another, and whore
that Virginian distinction of persons into classes of cowhides
and ...hided are unknown. Neither the negroes nor the
Irish are particularly well informed about the geography or
social condition of foreign parts; but the idea of a land of
promise, or city of refuge, is so congenial to suffering hu
manity, that its existence being once suggested, the notion
of it diffuses itself from heart to heart and mind to mind
In an almost miraculous manner. The slave population
throughout the entire South are now perfectly aware of the
existence of such a land; and it is the aspiration of every
suffering soul among them, of every enterprising,touthge
ens, noblesspirited man, woman and child among them, to
make their escape to that land. Every motive which ever
operated upon the Irish to emigrate, operates upon the ne
groes with ten-fold force: 7 .
This scandalous insult was penned by a
man and published in a newspaper, devoted at
the very time it was published, from all ap
pearances, to opposition to theKnowNothinge;
and yet we venture to say that, amongst all
the calumnies circulated against the adopted
citizens, nothing so gross as this has ever been
disseminated—if we except the assault made
upon the Germans by the celebrated K. N. Sen
ator from Ky., the Hon. John B. Thompson,
who, in the course of his speech, some months
ago, assailed these valuable citizens in terms of
the coarsest contumely. [ Vide correspondence
debates.] And with this record also before
him, we have Senator Sumner calling upon
the adopted citizens to come forward and sup
port John C. Fremont !!
Know Nothingism has written its hostility
to the Irish and Germane, in bloody characters.
Take the case of the treatment by the
Know Nothings, of She German citizens
of Baltimore, when they were driven
brute force froth the polls, and hundreds
of them prevented from voting at the very last
Congressional election, in Van Zones district.
To such extremes did these Know Nothings
carry their hostility, that they brutally attack
ed and lacerated every German who approached
the polls, and drove-him back among his fellow
countrymen to show his bleeding wounds,
and to deter them from making a similar
attempt. Hundreds of these unfortunate men,
with their families, were driven from Louis•
ville by the Know Nothings, and compelled
to seek shelter in the woods. And what are
these proscriptive fanatics in the South doing
now? Are they not assailing and opposing
the Democratic candidates for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency—Messrs. BUCHANAN and
morrow. The same objection that exists
against one exists against the other.
Is it possible that in view of all these facts,
there is the slightest prospect of Seward and
Greely misleading any portion of our adopted
fellow citizens ! Can it be that these citizens
would desert the only party which has ever
stood by them, which to protect them has
repeatedly encountered defeat, which to defend
them within the last two years was thrown
into a minority in many of the- States of the
Union—North and South. Which declared
its unfaltering adherence to liberal laws in
regard to emigration and naturalization and
the rights of conscience, in the last Democratic
platform, and which now as ever stands forth
as the recognized champion of every man who
flies from oppression in the Old World to enjoy
equal rights in the New. We will not believe
it. Senator Sumner's appeals only prove that
we have but to listen to an Abolitionist to
hear a falsehood.
There He Stands
" I hare been placed upon a platform of
which 1" most heartily approve, and that, can
speak for me. Being the representative of the
great Democratic parry, and not simply James
Buchanan, I must SQUARE MY CONDUCT
ACCORDING TO THE PLATFORM OF
THAT PARTY. end insert no new plank nor
take one from it."
The Black Republican, press, says the
Springfield, Illinois, Register, are quoting,
with much apparent gratification, the above
sentence from remarks recently made by Mr.
Buchanan, at Wheatland. We hope they will
keep it stereotyped in their columns. It is
devotion to the principles of the Democratic
platform that will secure Mr. Buchanan the
enthusiastic support of the national Democra
cy. It will be seen by the above that be
pledges to "square his conduct acc,rding to
the platform of the party"—the Democratic
party. Black Republicanism will render him
essential service in keeping this pledge "be
fore the people." The Democracy expect .it,
and will sanction nothing less, and every true
Democrat is proud that we have a standard
bearer who thus gallantly. makes the issue
with the democracy's enemies.

A Chance for the Freznontere
As the Black Ropublidan press have been
busily engaged trying to create an impres
sion that Illinois is going for Fremont, the
Providence (R. I.) Post, of Friday last, fur
nishes these Black Republican boasters with
an opportunity of testing the sincerity of their
professions :
Governor Matteson, of Illinois, is on a brief
visit to our State, and, with his family, is the
guest of 0. W. McKinney, Esq., of East
Greenwich. The Governor is well known as
one of the most distinguished and justly popu
lar Democrats of the West. If anybody sup
poses that there is any doubt about Illinois
casting her electoral vote for BucuANAN and
BRECKINUIDGE, they can have all such doubts
dissipated in a brief period by making the
acquaintance of His Excellency. We presume
being a Governor he would not bet, but we
have good reasons to know that a friend by
his side is prepared to bet $lO,OOO, not only
that Illiuoiswill cast her vote for the Demo
cratic nominees, but she will give them TEN
THOUSAND MAJORITY.

PROFESSOR WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.—This
preparation, although less than two years before the pub
lic, owing to its wonderful Steels upon the human hair and
scalp, has already obtained a celebrity and sale perfectly
unpandlelled. It has without the drdinary appliance used
for such purposes, won its way, and been heartily welcom
ed to most of she cities and towns in the United States the
Cauadas, and the West India Islands. NOr is this result
surprising, when it is remembered that its popularity is
based upon its merits, solely as established by actual tests.
That this preparation will actually RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO ITS NATURAL COLOR, produce a luxuriant growth
upon the heads of the bald, prevent the hair from falling
off, awl when used as a toilet article, produce a continual
flow of the natural fluids, and thus render the hair soft,
glossy and wavy, destroy diseases of the scalp, and expel
dandruff, the certificates of distinguished gentlemen and
ladies, in every part of the country who have tried it ; and
therttlire speak what they know, most fully attest.
Milroith, Worcester Co., Mass., Nov. 13th. 1153.
Prof. 0..1. Wood—Dear Sir; I take pleasure in bearing
voluntary testimony to the magic effects of your wonderful
Hair Restorative. As far back as 1530 my hair commenced
falling off, until the top of toy scalp became bald and smooth
as glass, and it has continued to fall for a great many years,
notwithstanding I have used many celebrated preparations
for its restoration. Seeing your advertisement, I was in
duced to give your article a Dial, and to my utter astonish
ment, I found after a few applications that my hair became
firmly set and assumed a very glossy and beautiful appear
ance; and, by the time I had used a quart bottle full, my
bald head-wAs_covered over with a young and vigrrous
growth of hair, which is now from one to two inches is
length, and growing very fast.
Yours truly,
From the Boston Herald.
SONIETDING WORTH KNOWINO !—By using Professor Wood's
Hair Restorative. gray Hair can be permanently restored to
itsorlginal color. The subjoined certificate was received from
Johnson & Stone, Gardener, Mo., and is but one of [be
many instances that are daily coming to our knowledge of
its wonderful effects. It is no longer problematic, but a
self-evident truth, as hundreds can testify.

Before using it I was a man of seventy. My hair has now

Restorative. We arc too juvenile to require anything of
the kind, but some instances of its use have come to our
knowledge which almost assure us that it is a sovereign
remedy against the hair becoming prematurely gray. It is
not a " Hair Dye;" but upon its application as directed, the
effect is produced on the skin, which brings out the origin

the benefit of those persons who Stutter or Stam
mer.
There has been a floating population of Imposters trav
eling the country, professing to cure impediments of speech
by my system, and many had the audacity to advertise in
my name, and give the names of nien for reference, whom
they never knew or saw. When persons who stammer
called, those scoundrels would represent me, and in sever
al Instances produce a certificate purporting to be mine,
vesting in them full power and authority to practice as my
agents. I have frequently warned the public of these men,
so they:are not in full possession of my system, end cannot
cure. Through untiring perseverance I arrested two of
them, and others will sooner or later share the same fate
This cure for stuttering or stammering is one of my own
discovery, for which I have a Copy Right, secured by Law;
and have successfully practiced the same for the period of
nine years.
My References are of the highest order, ouch as the Med
ical Faculty of New York, Philadelphia, and the University
of Virginia, oil the Press of Pittsburg, Washington,
fireensburg, and Uniontown, Pa., besides 10,000 persons in
different parte of the country.
This cure for Stuttering and Stammering is performed
in less than one hour. There is no pain or surgical opera
tion attending it.
The beauty of all this is, it will cure children of Five,
and adults at the age of One Hundred Years. A pirson
who is cured by it, can never again stutter, even If they try.
I offer to forfeit $lO,OOO if any person ran ever afterwards
stutter, by application of the cure. I will bo at
Michael's Hotel,
in Lancaster, on TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY
and FRIDAY, the 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th of August, and

me one of those days. All who neglect to call may write
me afterwards, and address Box 748 Pittsburg, Pa.

J. R. STAFFORD'S OLIVE TAR
A GREAT ELECTRICAL REMEDY FOR PREVENTING
AND CURING ALL DISEASES OF THE
THROAT AND LUNGS.
Olive Tar is Applied and Inhaled, and is not Taken.
'llIffECTIONS.—Apply by rubbing where pain or disease
exists: then cover the parts with a plaster made of oiled
Silk, to which stitch a thin layer of cotton batting; then
cover the batting with thinmuslin.,Cotton or woollen
flannel may be used instead of the oiled silk plaster, bu t
the operations of the remedy will not be as speedy, nor as
effective.
Fon Isnauxo.—Place,i saucer over a bowl of hot water,
(and keep it hot;) pour into the saucer enough Olive Tar
to cover the bottom; the apartment will soon be tilled with
its odor, affording to the patient an atmosphere impregna
ted with the delightful blended aroma of
• The Olive and of the Pine.
.‘M. Renew the Olive Tar daily for Inhaling by the above
method.
- .
• • :.
Another Method of Inhaling is to put Olive Tar on the
Oiled Silk Plaster, which being worn upon the chest, the
heat of the bodywill cause the Olive Tar to evaporate grad
ually, and as it rises it will be inhaled.. The Oiled silk
Plaster should be medicated with fresh °Rio Tar every
other day. In acute canes, or in those of long standing,
Loth of the above methods of inhalation should be used.
By adhering to the above direction, the very worst forms
of diseases of the Throat or Lungs, If not speedily cured,
will be greatly relieved • while temporary Colds, Sore
Throats, Inflamed Lungs, I.latarrh, Croup Coughs, Ecc., .tc.,
will yield at once to its combined curative powers.
STAFFORD'S OLcVE TAR softens and penetrates the
skin; therefore in all all Chronic or active inflammations
it will be found highly beneficial, as it acts directly upon
the Nerves, the Muscles and the Joints.
OLIVE TAR OINTMENT is made by mixing Olive Tar
and Mutton Tallow In equal parts. Tide 'liniment is is
positive cure for all diseases of the skin.
Aar Pain cannon exist where Olive Tar or Olive Ointment
is :applied.
STAFFORD'S OLIVE TAR does not contain any mineral
substances, nor any poisonous drug; the principal ingredl
tints are Pitch Pine Tar, and Oil of the Spanish Olive.
STAFFORD'S OLIVE TAR is manufactured by a process
recently patented by Mr. .1. R. Stafford, Practical Chemist,
by which process ail the Acid and Acrid properties con
tained in the substances forming this Compound are sepa
rated without the one of Chemicals.

y 10AL.—It is not more than twenty-flue years since
I,j Coal began to be 4 recognized articleef production and
commerce. Tklls year the .production of our anthracite
mines alone will amount to more than six millions of tons.
This may be regarded as an amount of solid wealth dog
annually at the present time from the bowels of our State.
We do not here undertake to show the additional advert.
mge it gives, in the aucouragement of industry, and the
employment of hundreds of thousand. of persons in manu
factures and commerce. We only wish to Impress upon
the minds of our readers that twenty millions a year is n
low estivate of the sum now paid to Pennsylvania for the
Coal dug from beneath her surface. In a few yean hence,
when railroads, caneilm, mining, manufactories, and popu
lation shall have vastly multiplied, our annual product of
Anthracite Coal alone will probably reach eighteen millions
of tons, and be worth at the 1:11i13101 thirtyelx millions of
dollars, whilst Bituminous coal will amount to as much
more. it J 4 the latter which has chiefly given the Western
part of our State its wealth, an the termer has the Eastern.
Since the rapid growth of the great Lake country and the
increase of population of our Western cities, the market
afforded for tho consumption of the bituminous is enor
mous. It is used iu every' variety of manufactures—it is
this of which our gat is made. its uses are Increasing so
fast that the supply has never equalled the demand. It
may be not down as a general fact, that the trade doubles
every six years. The Sunbury and Erie Railroad, and the
Allegheny Valley Itailrinul are about to open soma of the
richest tinkle of this coal; more advantageously located
than any other. The Elk county basin has for some time
attracted a large share of the public attention. It. presents
I the advantage of being inexhaustible In Its coal resources,
whilst its location has an unequalled superiority. A cop.
centration of live railroads will shortly take place, commit.
nicating to the Lakes, Now York, Philadelphia, and - the
Northern cities of the West, by a much nearer route than
Pittsburg, and givlrig it the advantage of the markets.—
