IlM=2 &tailgate. ''Osiw, rum . 'Wollfts. , —Messrs. Carle, Gets, it Eberman hare recently established a file manufactory in the large frame-building' formerly:ow:o9d 'as EIZIOVe foundry sit uated at.the pernerof Chestnut , and Duke streets not far from the depotuf the Penn sylvania'lta,ilioad. This enterprise has been undertaken at comdderablelexpense by the gentlemen above mentioned, but now promisee to , repay them for all the capital'and labor expended in obtaining the necessary machinery for making first-class ffies. Mr. Curie, a member of the firm, is the originator of &plan by which iron can be converted into steel. All the files, there fore, manufactured by this establishment . are first made out of the best charcoal iron and then converted into steel of a superior quality, so that the tile can be recut as often as•necessary Without destroying the nature of the steel, as the center of, the file being malleable, permits contraction in temper ing. In this way the firm proposes to fur nish one of the strongest tiles now in mar ket, and of such a character that they will not be liable to break. The foreman of the manufactory is Mr. E. F. Spencer, recently of Sheffield, England, and a nephew of the celebrated file manufacturer of that name now in business at Sheffield. The proprie tors of this new enterprise have been fortu nate in procuring the services of Mr. Spen cer, as his extensive experience in the manufacturing of liles will prove an inval uable aid in enabling them to produce an article, in every respect, equal to those of English manufacture. The building occu pied by the firm is now undergoing repairs and it will soon receive a coat of fire-proof paint, which wilt add very much to its ap pearance. The engine used at the present time having proved inadeqaute to drive both the machinery of the tOundry and file works, a new engine will be immediately procured, which, with the one now in use, will afford all the power required. The two frame houses east of the file manufactory have recently been refitted and painted in a handsome manner, which adds very much to the appearance of that part of Chestnut street and reflects credit upon the owners, Messrs. Jno. Beat and Benj. G. Getz. We wish this new enterprise every success, for it is only through such manufactories that a city can be made to- increase in wealth and population. UNLEAVENED BREAD.—Since the final destruction of the temple of Jerusalem, the Jews have celebrated the passover by eat ing unleavened bread during the seven (out of Pale .tine during eight, days. Mrs. Abra ham Hirsh recently sent to our office a number of cakes of this bread. It is made with great care in the larger cities by Jew ish bakers, and is shipped to all parts of the country for consumption during passover. The specimen before us consists of thin sound cakes, some six inches in diameter, of an even thickness, perforated in many places with a fork or some other sharp in strument, and very nicely baked. It is full of irregularities, apparently caused by the escape of air bubbles. To the taste it Is much more pleasant than ordinary crackers, and we should not esteem eating it for a week any hardship. EXPLOSION ON NORTH QUEEN STREET.— A large kettle or boiler full of fat, used for making soap, exploded on Thursday at the Steam Soap and Candle Works of Mr. Her man Miller, on North Queen street. The boiler was only moved a short distance from Sts usual position by the explosion, so that no material damage was done to tho and no Injury inflicted upon the work men in it, when the accident happened. The alarm of fire being raised a number of the fire engines were brougat out; but as no fire originated from the explosion their ser vices were not n eded. NEW PATENT.—David B. Bartholomew, of this city, has just received letters patent, dated the 7th day of April, for an improved Re-sawing Machine. This invention em• braces several highly important improve moms on sawing machines, which are cal culated to yield results not heretofore at tained, and fur compactness, strength, and adaptation to du all kinds of resawing, is not only a model of mechanism and inven tive skill, but so near perfection that it can • not fall to become in general demand. Ob tabled through the agency of Jacob Stauffer, of this city. \ FIRE; IN MOUNT JOY.—Tile hotel belong ing to Henry Sherbauti,situated at the Cross Roads in the upper part of that borough was destroyed by lire on Wednesday last. The furniture was nearly all destroyed ; dur ing the progress of the fire the flames were communicated to several of the adjoining buildings but fortunately did not ignite to such an extent us todo thorn serious injury. The alarm of tire was given about 5 o'clock last evening when the lire wits first discov ered, The Fire aparatus and citizens were promptly on hand but their united efforts could not subdue the flames. The fire lasted three hours; the hotel and out buildings were entirely consumed. Sir. Sherbahn's loss is estimated at about ;?.6,050. Poor. A. L. KCEPPEN.—The numerous friends of Prof. Kceppen, recently a mem ber of the faculty ut Franklin and Marshall College in this city, wilt be glad to learn that he is in excellent health ; and that his present position us Librarian of King George, the First, of Greece, is a very con genial and pleasant one. The Professor purchased, during his visit to this country last summer, a choice selection of American works by our best authors, which on his return to Athens he presented co the King, who expressed himself as being muchgret ilied by - this mark of esteem and affection, and immediately gave the books a promi mint place in the royal library. The Pro fessor iu the seine letter, dated the 7th ult., from which the above statement is taken, expresses the strongest love for America, the land of his adoption, and hopes that he will be able to revisit it at no distant period. SEEP COPIES OF YOUR LETTERS.—Every business man should keep copies of all im portant letters. The reason why so few do so is because of the trouble of doing it by means of an ordinary letter press. But u new plan has been devised which enables letters to be copied instantly into a book of convenient size, which can be kept always at hand on the desk. This new invention is meeting with a hearty welcome wherever introduced, and is destined to supersede all other methods. The agent for this system called on us yesterday, and we fully satis fied ourselves that it is in all respects the quickest and most economical method for copying letters yet devised. It will com mend itself to every intelligent man at once. No professional or business man should be without one of these books. TILE Passover.—This Hebrew festival commenced on Monday last, which accord ing to the Jewish calendar was the 14th day of Nisau, and continued for eight days from that date. The Passover was instituted by Moses in commemoration of the Israelites remaining intact during the night of the destruction of the first born in Egypt, im mediately preceeding the exodus from that country. since the final destruction f the temple of Jerusalem, the Passover has been celebrated by abstaining from all kinds of leavened bread, the substitute beingknown as Passover cakes. The first and last days of this festival are kept sacred, all business being attended to during toe four interme diate days. Various rites commemorative of the deliverance from Egyptian bondage are observed, and lu all synagogues formal exercises and ceremonies are practised. FILE Youa NEWSPAPERS.—The impor ' lance of preserving newspapers is hardly I thought of by the groat mass of persons, . who subscribe for and read them. As an illustration of this, we understand that the publishers of the Examiner of this city offer $5 for a copy of the first issue of the Ex amino . , commenced in Lancaster, March, 1830. They also offer $5 for a copy or the first number of the Anti-Masonic Herald, started at New Holland, this county, June, 1828. A copy of the INTELLWENUER In which title article appears would, probably, fifty years from the present time, command a considerable sum of money. Every per son, therefore, should subscribe for some good newspaper and carefully preserve for future reference, in this manner collect ing an entertaining record of passing events, and one that will become every clay more and more valuable and interesting. COLUMBIA ENTERPRIsE.--The Harris burg Slate Guard thus speaks of the coal trade of Columbia': The coal trade o; Co lumbia, Lancaster county, will soon be es Important ae was and Is the lumber trade of the same locality. While passing through that borough on hfonday, we noticed that the Columbia and Reading Railroad Com pany was just completing its immense docks, for the loading of canal boats with coal, which, when finished, will rival those at Richmond, ou the Delaware river, owned by the same company. The shipment of coal from Columbia southward is destined very soon to become an immense business, SALES OP VIRGINIA LANDS.—The Win chester Tones of laic week states that within the next ten days, between 5150,000 and 5175.000 will bo paid for land in that vicinity' by persons from the North. One gentleman from Lancaster county, Pa., deposited last week in the Shenandoub Valley National Bank, the sum of 528,500, to be paid out on the Ist of April to par ties from whom he had purchased land.

' Our yes , iii(Oi;l6R 11 0 4 " ' . „ In oar recollection Lancaster county has never been so .unfortunate in her Repre sentatives in the State Legislature alit is in the present' session. We all remember how virtuously the immaculate Armstrong led off at the organization of the House ; swore, as the soldiers aresaid to have sworn In Flanders, that he never would consent to Davis being made Speaker; that he (Davis) was corrupt, incompetent, and the paid t,ool of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, but for some potent reasons his virtuous resolutions suddenly gave way, and while protesting be "Never would consent—oonsented," and the intelligent (e) Davis was placed in possession of the gavel.. Neat comes the youthful Blenheim Zott aye, decorated with tinsel and a dozen silly school-boy devices, also ambitious of wear ing a policeman's star, (vide return of Blen heim township election,) haranguing the demagogues, public plunderers, and mid night debauchers of his party upon, the drunkenness and party infidelity of the President; frightening all the Democrats of the :House, and of the State, with the awful threat that he. the puppet Zott eve, always returned the enemy's shot." Oh dear 1 how our flesh did creep when we reflected that it was Little Leather Leggings made that threat. And just to think, too, that said Little Leather Leggings has, on occasions we wot of, had as heavy loads on as any individual of his size and weight ought to carry. Spare Andrew Johnson, our beautiful Zonave. This diminutive specimen of humanity, with stilled expres sions on his lips proclaiming the equality of the human race, attacks, in the next moment, the ignorance of the Dish, Ger mans and foreigners generally. It may not be known, but it is nevertheless a fact, that there is not a member of Little Leather Leggings' family, including L. L. L. him self, who can divest himself or herself of the "sweet German accent." Further, that the mem era of his immediate family cannot hold a conversation in the language of the laws and literature of our country. It is fitting that this infinitesimal specimen of creation should advocate the equality with the white of a race that, since the foundations of hu man society, has never had a history save as savages and cannibals. The only ap proach the poor African has ever known to civilization has been when the helping hand of the white man dragged him by force from his native barbarism. Nomatter what na tions hive sprung up, flourished and de• clined, the African has remained the same. Nearly contiguous nations, such as Egypt; and of the same continent, such as Carthage; or nations invading Africa, such as Route, have ever been able to add the smallest scintillation of intelligence to the netive African or Ethiopian mind. There, in his rude hut and on his burning sand, as he was thousands of years ago, without intel lect higher in order than that of the gorilla, he remains, baffling all the attempts at im provement of the missionary and the phil anthropist. And this is that portion of hu manity that such school boy dreamers as Little Leather Leggings would force into social and political equality with the men who have built up the whole edifice of hu man civilization. Not one stone in that magnificent structure has been laid by the sons of Ham. It is more than doubtful thatwith the ad vantages of attention with the white man he can be elevated to the most obscure com prehension of political economy. The whole scheme (If it were honestly advocated) is more likely to result in the political and so cial degradation of the Caucasian race, than in the elevation of that which is known as the African. We speak by the records of the past. We have given to L. L. L. more space than his dimensions called for, but in so do- Mg we hope we have thrown out a hint to him and many who think like him, that will cause them to stop and think in their Insane attempts to accomplish an :impossi bility. Another of the unworthy representatives of Lancaster county in the present session. of our Legislature, and the last we can find space to refer to in this issue, is Joe Fisher, Gen. Joe Fisher, Know Nothing Joe Fisher, once of Columbia, but now we have been informed, of this city. This disinterested patriot has regently, in the Senate of the State, been indulging in the abuse of "ignorant Irish Catholics," and the Swag bellied, lager beer swilling Dutchman." This is an old theme and will spring up wherever bigots and demagogues wield influence. Joe's training in the dark lantern gatherings of 1854-'55, have amply prepared him for any dirty work of this kind. Unfitted from lack of those shining qualities which makes a man conspicuous among men, and which of their own innate power elevate the man to prominence and fame, such- grovellers amid depraved hu manity as this slanderer is, Creeps upward his slimy way by flattering and pandering the lower and meaner qualities of men. Incapable by lack of moral training and by education to contend in the more elevated regions of intellectual combat, he must, by force of his own mental gravitation, descend to those miserable appeals to prejudice and passion which honest or educated men have long since abandoi3ed. Like all demagogues, this would-be Censor Is inconsl.tent. By what right does Joe Fisher condemn any people- for a Tree indulgence in lager beer, when it is known that the imbibitions of the said J. F. are as frequent as his invitations to drink ; - and that, too, not the mild bev erage which he makes the subject of his censure, but of the worst "rot gut" his trembling hand can carry to his constantly craving lips. Our upon such demagogues. They are a hissing and a reproach to the morals and intellect of any people who make them their Representatives. it Nor the Intel Homer. MESSRS. EDITORS :—ln the local column of your issue of Wednesday the Ist inst., is a paragraph rotating to the ' Locust Year," in which you say—" we hope some mem bers of the Linnwan Society of this city will inform us with regard to this interesting fact in nature, ike." At a stated meeting of the Lancaster City and County Horticultu ral Society, held on the first Monday in March last, a saiember of the Linnman So ciety—who is also a member of the Horti cultural—read an Essay before its mem bers, on the subject embraced in the above request, relating historical facts and expe riences, which were so interesting to the members, that they desired the privilege of its publication, which was accordingly done, in the Daily and Weekly issues of a co temporary journal ; and yet, the existence of that Essay seems to have been entirely overlooked, and you publish a paragraph— seemingly condensed from certain deduc tions of the Reading Times—which is ex ceedingly lame and unsatisfactory, as well as incorrect in its details of facts. For in stance, it is not a fact that "the first chroni cled appearance of these locusts was in 1800." Their first chronicled appearance within the territory of the United States was in 1833, and within the limits of eastern Penn sylvahlit, records of their appearance have ' been made In every seventeenth year, from 1715 to 1851, and I have seen an earlier record than this, but I have not access to it now. These insects partake of little or no tiod during their brief visit to the upper world—they are not migratory—and there fore it cannot have been literally true, that "the air seemed full of them." They can now be found et a less depth than ''four or five feet," perhaps not more than that many nches, where the frost is clearly out of the ground; but as to the reasons for their re miring seventeen years to complete their development, I don't think any naturalist can truly give them. There is no uniformity of development In the various species be longing to the insect world. There are, for instance, the delicately organized Ephemerada—"Day thee—that continue [rout one to three years in . the larva and pupa states, and then issue forth perfect insects; meet their mates; woo and win each other; enjoy their honeymoon; deposit their eggs and die • all between the rising and the setting of the sun of a single day ; whilst on the other hand, the Ap/ri dida—" Plant lice "—and allied species, bring forth ten, twelve, fourteen or sixteen generations within a single season, and some of them even without re impregna tion ; but the reasons for these things are. thus far, only known to the Deity. We only know that some insects develop very rapidly, and others very slowly, and the slowest of all on record is the Cicada Sep tendecim, erroneously called Loc u st. 1 do not wonder that the notion that they work their way down for eight years and a half, and then the same length of time up again, is beyond your belief, for this has never yet tieen demonstrated as a fact. Living as 'hey do on the sap of the roots of trees, shrubs, and other species of vegetation,they probably do not go down far below the frost line. Last season they were found in this oily, not more titan four or live inches be low the surface of the soil, but the time had not yet come for them to emerge forth, and so they remained In statu quo, The igno rance and the error that prevails in the common mind, in reference to the phe 'tomens of the Insect world, is not less ro• inarkable than it is deplor tble, nor is it likely to be any otherwise for a long time to come. For instance, I have now before me No. 2 of " Tho Bible Natural History," published by Virtue it Yoreton. of New York, in which, in describing the Locusts of the Bible, the writer says: 'ln America there are several species of the genus Olca da," thus confounding these insects; when they differ fully as much, as an eagle differs from a quail. The article I refer tole other wise full of errors, and therefore It must be seen that, coming with authority, the ten dency must no to perpetuate error In the youthful minds of those for whose instruo lion and edification the book:was specially , intended. In another article the writer says: "The Scorpion Is a pilule of in- sects belonging to. the order Aptera." rho commonest perceptions of classill ca ion in natural history, would scorcely rank the scorpion with meets any more lion it would rank crabs and lobsters with them ; and yet this writer does so, without the least qualification, The term aptsra is applied to an order of insects - that are des titute of wings—as, for instance, the com mon flea—but this does not entitle the scor pion to a place among them any more than it does a snapping turtle, or tiny other ani mal that is destitute of wings. Again, "the scorpion is about the size of an egg, and hence the allusion of our Saviour to this animal-if he shall ask an tog will he offer him a scorpion 9" If this rule is to be ap plied to the whole passage, then a loaf of bread must be about the size of a stone. . . . - But it was,not the Intention of this article to enter into an explanation or discussion .of the significance of these natural objects, as symbolic manifestations of spiritual his tory, but merely to afford'an illustratlowof 'prevailing ignorance and error, and of the+ tendency to perpetuate those errors, through books ostensibly . written as_ instructors of the risingjpineratlon. , , ..4,we may. expect the aPpearance of the etoddis. stgaferideetts abont the 25th et. next Mont h, (May) an opportunity will be afford ed perhaps, to make more - accurate and fuller observationson theirsingularhistori cal and natural characteristics. If the Spring opens pri early and warm, these in sects may appear on the date above named; and if cold and fate,. then , likely . they, will make their appearance later—possibly not until the lst of June:. By.the 4th of July there will not probably be a single sped men to be found in Lancaster . county, so brief are their visits, after an absence pro tracted to seventeen years. It is the gener al opinion of those who have made records of the appearances of these insects, that their numbers are growing "beautifully less" every pear, and therefore by the ex piration or the present century, their num bers may be so small, and their regular pe riods so interrupted, as to leave us in doubt which is the true Locust year. S. S. It. State Items. A petrified snake, twelve feet long, has been found near Petroleum Centre. The new bridge over theSchnylkillat Birds boro' Montgomery county, has been com menced.

Mr. Chariea Fbrrey: Dear Str : Yonn of the lath Inst., Is at hand, and In reply, would say, we make three kinds of Bitters. The one you used for Dyspepsia Is called MIBHLER'S HERB BITTERS, generally sold for a dollar, or one dollar and twenty-five cents a bottle. It is always used for Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Kidney Affections and Diseases of the Lungs and Throat, dr.c.; and in these itis a sure and permanent remedy. Dr. Hartman, on referring to his books, finds that we have cured, sham the Id of July, 1837, the Urns we became the proprietors of this in stitution, 213 cases of Dyspepsia; 78 of Chronic Rheumatism; 107 of Lingering Coughs and Colds; 93 of Kidney Affections; 17 of Yellow Jaundice; Hof ftenraigia; 43 of Headache and Sick Headache; 19 of Lumbago or Pain in the Back; 10 of Gensral Debility; 27 of Chills and Fever, and 37 not well defined. There are, of course, thousands who have used klishier's Herb Bitters, that never visited Dr. Hartman, nor wrote to him, with doubtless the same effect. But the number above given are carefully recorded in a book, with their ad dress. Tuose that have visited the Doctor are marked V. and those that have written to him, W. This book is open to °Tea ybody, and all of them can be written to, If desired, MISRLER'S GREEN LABEL BITTERS, is the kind that has always been used for Scrof ula, Old Running Sores and Ulcers, and deli cate diseases, caused by Imprudence, excess, exposure, or early indiscretion ; also, for Skin Diseases of ever kind, and Inflammatory Rheumatism,' These Bitters are now sold everywhere, at one dollar and fifty cents per bottle; and although never before advertised, have at present nearly as large a sale as the Herb Bitters. They have been sold in Phila delphia, New York, Baltimore and some other places at two and three dollars per bottle. They are the only sure remedy for the diseases Just named. We could refer the reader to over five hun dred cases of the moat miraculous cures pro duced within the last six months by the GREEN LABEL BITTERS; but most persons, suffering irom these complaints will not allow tl,elr names to be published, a thing we never do except by special permission. . MISEILER'S RED LABEL BITTERS, which is the third variety of our preparation, will surely cure all Chronic Complaints pecu liar hatemales. Ladies Buffering nom any Ir regularities will tad them a great boon. Every lady that is pale with palpitation of the heart, or a fluttering sensation about that organ,with a shortness of breath after a little exertion will find these Bitters a panacea. From two to four bottles will entirely cure all such cases. In short, every other lady, young or old, the world over, should use this medicine.
