A correspondent of the Evening Bulletin,
thus describes the recent launch of a barge,
at Schuylkill IlaveD :
SCHUYLKILL HAVEN, Oct. 31st, 1860.—A
beautiful barge was launched a few days ago
at Schuylkill Haven of which Captain Mar
tin Wagner'is commander and owner. She
bus at present her first cargo OD board, con
signed to the city of Troy, New York. She
is a capital craft, built by Wm. Saytor; she
carries well, is a fine veseel, and is perfectly
adapted to shipping of merchandise of every
description. She has been peculiarly favored
and honored with the name of our present es
teemed incumbent elect, Governor A. G■ Cur
tin, given her by Thomas Zubch, Esq., the
worthy Collector of this port, ner beautiful
fancy name, which appears well executed,
and looks very isnpoeing, was .designed and
"lettered by John 11. Guertler, Esq., an aged
gpntlcman of this place, one of the Curtin
Fencibles of Schuylkill Haven, and a person
who displayed a very warm and decided in
terest in behalf of, and for the election of
Col, Curtin. He is much'distinguished for
bringing out novel and fancy designs in
which he generally displays fine taste. With
pen and ink, yery few can excel Mr. Guert
ler, through city, town, or country.
The name of this pretty barge is over
arched, with thirteen stars, in lieu of the
original thirteen States, and among which,
the central star measures double the eize of
the others, meaning to represent the Key
stone of the federal arch, Pennsylvania, aul
is placed immediately over the name Curtin,
who thus appears surrounded with a halo
and galaxy of stars of the old American Uni
on. The letters are five inches iD height,
width in proportion. The whole looks in ev~
try re.-pcct perfect, and pleases the behold-
VICISSITUDES OF ROME AND IIER POPES.—
The Papacy is not so near its end us many
hope and expect. It has survived many a
l ui as bard as the present. In 1527 the
combined German and Spanish armies of
Charles V. stormad and sacked Rome, enact*
in {5 in its ttreets tiie most diabolical cruel
ties, burning, torturing, robbing, ravishing,
and destroying tor ten days. Some 6,000 of
(be inhabitants perished, 10,000.000 crowns
of plunder were collected, and Hope Clem
ent VII. paid 400,000 ducats for bis own
ransom. Lutber thought that the end of
Rome bed come. But it has survived and
recovered, Sixty years ago it was in the
hands of Napoleon, who seemed to hesitate
wbe'her IO crush it or not. In 1820, 1831,
and it was a prey to revolution, Gari
baldi himself, at the lust date, expelling the
Pope, who escaped in the disguise of a foot
man on a coach bcx. A Republican govern
ment was then established, but ano'her year
saw him back again, and now he looks for
support from the despotisms which would
themselves tremble at bis fall. llis tempos
ral dominion may be even now at an end i
but that dominion is really his weakness, and
not his strength ; and when he is well rid of
it he will re:gn as head of thß Roman Cath
olics with more substantial influence than
for a long time past.— English Payer.
Accidents to Royalty in Europe.
Queen Victoria and her court, whiie (rav
eling lately on a German railroad, bad a
m narrow escape from destruction by a colli
sion. Prince Albert came near losing his
liTo by jumping from a carriage when the
bor.-es were running off. The other day the
Queen ol Spain was shot at by one of her sub
jeets, and escaped through the pistol missing
-fi c. About tlie same time, the Count ol
v - Paris, t the Orleans pretensions to the
French Crown, had a leg broken while hunt
. ijag near Ciaremont, England. Francis 11.
King of Naples, fell from his throne the other
day and lost bis crown. What next ?
There are some curious facts in the
census of Ohio. One of tbem is that the en
tire section once called the wheat region,
from Steubenville to Tiffin, has declined in
population. The great staple of that section,
wheat, for several years almost failed entire
ly. Of course agriculture was less profitable
and the emigration to the West was probably
greater.
An ox, a calf, and a sheep, were
roasted in Philadelphia last Saturday, at a
bsrbedue held in honor of the success of the ■
"People" at the recent State eleotion. '

SERiOUS ASSAULT AT ALBANY.
ALBANY, Nov. 2—About 9 o'clock this
morning a lawyer of this city, named John
Percy, eniertd the premises kept by John
Cranfield as a porter-house, on Broadway,
and committed a violent assault on him,
tbrowii g a handfui-of Scotch snuff in his
eyes and ihen beating him over the head with
a heavy cane, making three bad wounds,
Cianlield drew a revolver and shot Percy
twice, both balls entering the stomach. Per
cy cannot survive, •
The quarrel arose out of a suit for the pos
session of the premises occupied by Crane
field. Percy bore a bad character, and the
sympathy ef ihe community is entirely with
Cranfield. whose action is ounaidered entire
ly justifiable.
Two BODIES FOUND HANGING IN THE
WOODS. —On Sunday morning last a rumor
was circulated about the neighborhood west
of Belliar, tbat two dead bodies had been
fi und suspended by the neck in the woods.
Several persons repaired to the spot, and,
sure enough, there hung the stark bodies,
dangling between heaven and earth. The
bodies were identified as those of one "Town-
er" and " Jack," who were known to have
committed sundry depredations in the neigh
borhood. It is supposed that they were de
tested in the act of killing sueep—as their
mouths were bloody—and that they were ex
ecuted by the owners of sheep in the vicini
ty, after an in'formal trial. — Wheeling Intel•

Thanksgiving' Day in Pennsylvania.
PENNSYLVANIA, t>S:
In the na r e and by the authority of the
C< mmnnwealth of Pennsylvania, WILLIAM
i F PACKER, Governor of tbe sa<d Commsn
-1 wealth ;
A PROCLAMATION.
FELLOW CITIZENS :— The revolutions of the
year have again brought us to our annual
! festival of Thanksgiving to Almighty God.
In no preceding year have we had mure
i abundant cause for gratitude and praise.—
The revolving seasons have brought with
them health and plenty. The summer fruits
| and the autumn harvests have been gather
i ed and garnered in unwonted exuberance. A
healthlul activity has pervaded all the de
i partments of life ; aDd provident industry has
I met with a generous reward The increase
of material wealth has been liberally em
ployed in sustaining our Educational and
Religious Institutions ; and both are making
the most gratifying progress in enlightening
and purifying the public mind. While, in
Europe, central and absolute governments,
by their pressure on personal rights aDd lib
erty, are producing excitements, which
: threat n to upheave the very foundations of
) socieiv, and have'led, in some instances, to
I bloody and cruel wars, we, in the enjoyment
| of constitutional liberty, and under the pro-
I tectioD of jast and equal laws, are peaceful-
I ly pursuing the avocations of life, and enga
ging in whatever promises to advance ourso-
I cial and individual improvement and bappi
! nes6. ''The lines are," indeed, "fallen to us
i in pleasant places, and we have a goodly
heritage." In all this we see the orderings
of a kind and merciful Providence, which
calls not only for our recognition, but for our
public Thanksgiving ard Praise.
Under this conviction, I, WILLIAM F.
! PACKER Governor of the Commonwealth
| of Pennsylvania, do hereby appoint
l
Thursday, the Twenty-ninth day of No
vember next,
; To be observed as a day ot public Thanksgiv
ing and Prayer, and recommend to all our
' people, triat setting aside, on that day, all
1 wordly pursuits, they assemble iD their re
' spective places of worship, and uoite in nffer
! ing Thanks to God for his manifold good-
I ness, and imploring his forgiveness aud tbe
continuance of his mercies.
Given under my Hand and the
IL S 1 ea ' l^e ® tate ' at Harrisburg,

A half a dozen dandies—
Who paid no board, but s pent their dimes
For whiskey, wine, and brandies.
Bhe thus soliloquized : " I am
A Murphy, not a Morphy;
And as I cannot play at chess,
I'll play a game of coffee-"
So she upon her table placed
Her fare, and, looking slyly,
6bo he boarders much enraged
To see her coffee " riley."
One dandy, picking up his knife,
As if with purpose bloody.
Said, " Mrs. Murphy, do you think
I'll drink this coffee, muddy !"
She answer'd : "While upon my books,
You are for board a debtor,
You must that kind of coffee drink,
For I shall make no better.
| You call my "offee, 'muddy stuff'—
Your wrath no wisi restraining—
| But in your cup there wouZd not be
The yroumts lor such compZaining.
If I, by your negZect to pay.
Had not been sor ly nettZed;
And tiZZ you settle biZZs for board;
Y'our coffee won't be set'.Zod !"
This proved a " settler" for the boys,
And they resoZved instanter :
j "We wi/Z the coffee pot exaZt
Above the viZe decanter.
" 'Tis coffee versus brandy now,
And we wi 11 show OUT metal ;
j We'ZZ settle Mrs. Murphy's biZZs,
Aud she'ZZ our coffee seltZe !
ThencZidin cZothes r rom TOWER HALL,
As 1 y the Bard directed.
We shaZZ, for eoaracter and dress,
Be honored and respected."
NOTI
One and all, to Tower HaZZ, at once shouZd go ;
! at prices low, yo there can buy what suits the
eye, and what is strong, to Zast yoq Zong. These
are the time to save your dimes : you can't save
all at '.'oer HaZZ; but uiay a part, and. bZessyour j
heart ! why shouZdn't you, your duty do ? Y'ou
wiII, I know, you'ZZ quiekZy go, and buy a suit
which, past dispute, you'ZZ cheupZy buy, and that
is why the Bard invites, when'er he writes, his
: readers all to Tower HaZZ.
