Delegate Meetings.
Our Democratic friends•slititild remember l lhat
the primary meetings to elect delegates are- called
for Saturday the Ist day of September. The Com
mittees of Vigilance should see that notices are
posted up in the most .public places,giving the hour
and place of holding the meetings, so that the mat
ter may be fully understood in their districts.
We would Inge upon the Democrats the impe
rious necessity there is for attending the• meetings
to elect Delegates. It is here that public opinion
should he correctly end unmistakably manifested
The Delegates elected. rhould be honest and capa•
He men, and should have such a plain ciemmistra-.
lion of the will of their constituency that they dare
not misrepresent them. This can only be done, by
the punctual attendance of Democrats at the meet
ings. If abuses or errors creep in to the Delegate
system by' the artifices of designing' men, the vo
ters have only to attend the primary meetings. send
to. the Convention gOod and hue men, anti hold
them strictly responsible for their arts, and tie evils
Ay il l be abated. Such a itoursit, toe. Ns ensue sat

victory.
"The Keystone."
We congratulate the Democracy of the Sate,
upon now liavint - .7 at Harrisbnrg, an able and fear
less exponent of their principles The rrttly have
lons felt the need'df a press at the seat of (jAvezn ,
ment, which would represent the true interests of
the Democracy, rather than be devoted to farnons
nod cliques. Such a paper they now hare in the
Keystone, printed by MILLER & BAREET.
,It is
weehy of the patronage of every sound Democrat
—and deserves, and tee trust 1. ill receive, abon
riallkiipp.)rt. Aiming at the welfare of the great
Democratic party. the time-serving and.temporizing
course so characteristic of retin”lvania politicians
is carefully avoided, and traitors and lecreants
meet with no favor at its hands. Its editors have
been publishing from the journals of the la.t
leg
r-lature, facts in regard to the reEcharter of Banks.
mhtch are any thing but cre.-ditati*3 to the character
of some 'pretended Dernrwrats—(amongst whom
we regrel to see the name of the Represeiewlve
horn Tioga county ) Those fearless expOsiioits
of sech shameful direlection from the plain path of
duty, will do the democracy much good. We trust
they will be continued and foTtu:i. The Demo
cracy of tlin State which so siizna'ly sis'aiinc,.l the
rolicy of SiirxK, in re_arj to itirorporations, nerd
only reliable sources ofrinformation to call to.ac

The returns from the - tions holden lately, are
meagre and indefinite. ,NIT , • tither from the latest
accountn, tie following
larnsis.k.—The election in this Stale as for Go
vernor and Congressmen: For Governor, I, news,
a far a received, is favorable to J. A. Watt- T,
Democrat. For Congress, only the 2d and sth dis
tricts have been heard horn. In the former, W.
M. DUNN, Whig is elected over bUNHAM . , Demo
7rat. The Democratic candidate was elected to
the last Congress, in this, district, by 40 majority.
In the sth district, W31..1 BacAviv, Dem., is elected
over W. W hig, by 1,500 majority.
KTN4-tiv.—The election in this State was for
members of Congress, and Delegates to the Con
vention to re - ortn the Slate Constitution. The re
turns indicate that the prollavery candidates for the
Convention are generally elected. The Emanci
pationists are in a small minority. Few returns
fur Congress have been received, but it is pretty
certain that the Democrats have elected four and
the Whigs su members—no change from last Con
gress.
Nowrit Canot.ma 7 —An election for members of
Congress was held in this State. Returns already
received show the election of ‘l"higs in the Ist, 2d,
3d, 4th, and 9th, Districts, and Democrats in the
sth, 6:h and 7th DistriCts. In the Bth District the
enti!em is close between W . R. -T.
ANE, Democrat,
and EEWARD STANLEY, %'big, but there is now no
doubt of Stanley's election, leaving the delegation
as before, North Carolina having been represented
in the last Congress by six, Whigs and three De•
mocrats
TraiNessr.c.—We have the cheering intelligence
croin this heretofore Whig State, that Gen. ‘Viu.rsst
Titousosts. (Democrat,) is elected
, Governor over
Ncti. S. Baown, 'the present Whig incumbent, by
the handsome majority of over 3000 !. The Dem

members of Congress—being a clear gain of three;
and a majority in both branches of the Legislature

The ag4tessions perpetrated by the Flatheads be

to aid ;hero in the execution of the law.
The Flatheads, hearing of this movement, •the

Fr m a passenger on the Wm. Gaston, we learn
that the Ihdians have murdered several negroes on
a plantation near Tampa Bay, destroyed a bridge
aid other property. A detachment of 25 U.S.
imnps went out from the post at Tampa Bay, and
dt-covered a patty of about 400 warriors, painted
in war style. and being the weaker party, it was
deemed prudent to return to Tampa Bay.
The steamer Ocmulgee has been chartered to

The most respectable Americana reside in the

The market has been completely overstocked

There were fifty or sixty cargoes of goods re

A house about forty feet long by venty feet wide;

• THE ABDUCTION c ABE IN NEW OWLEANP.—The
Washington Republic says of the case:
" We have a„-•ctertained that the statements made
by the Spanish Consul at New Orleans, in regard
lc the alleged abduction off Juan Francisco Rey,
alias Juan Garcia, is as fidlnws: Juan Garcia, un
der-keeper of the prison in Havana, deserted his
post. taking with. him Don Vicente Fernandez, who
was detained there in custody on a charge of trend
lent hatikrimtcy ; and with this prisontr and anoth
er named Don Centro Villav•eide, embarked in the
American schooner Delfina. for New Orleans.—
But there they abandoned him to his fate; and he
laboring under extreme want, and irritated at hav
ing been thus deceived, forwarded a request to the
Captain General of Havana, petitioning fou pardon
and asking leave to return there, in order that he
might point the place where tho fraudulent mer
chant had deposited 8,200 , 000, belonging to his
creditors, with the intention no doubt, of exporting
that Finn when it should be possible or convenient
for him to do so; and also that he might- make
some other revalations which concerned the safety
of . the IslaniL The request was granted by the
Captain General. •But when Garcia was informed
of this he begged the Consul to give him a pass
port under the assumed name of Pedro Murgay
Romeo, resolving to conceal his intended return to
Cuba. and to enibaik secret'y, fearing that his ac
compli,es should endeavor to prevent it by vio
lence or other criminal means. And thus he ef
fected his escape. 'bVe have reason to know that
the Government is now engaged. in ascertaining
the facts of the case."
This abduction case seems to be dwindling down
to a small p Int. A telegraphic despatch from New
Orleans says Rey' is in quarantine at Havana, and
refuses to say whether he was abducted or went
away "onhis own accord—the butter being the
case evidently from his•silence. By the way, that
fleet the Herald despatched to Havana to demand
Rey may now be sent on some other mission.
A SANGUINARY OrricullOt.usa.—A letter-writer

The lion. John C. Clarke, who has been appoint

loose, not tied behind him. This is said to have

being made by the Hungarians fur th achievement
of their independence , and to urge pon the -Eng
lish Ministry of the own the rec ration of the
de facto Government. it is mentioned as a signifi
cant fact, that a Quaker moved the first resolution
which would go to prove that the blends of Hun
gary are appreciated extensively, when they over
come in a member of the Peace Society some
thing like an abhorrence of war. This feeling was
I strikingly evidenced by the meeting whe4 some of
the speakers, instead, of mincin g expressions of
-sympathy, boldly proposed to aid the Magyars by
taking up arms against Austria. The scene which
I ensued baffles description. The whole assemblage,

ble armaments of two stupendous despotisms.
It is difficult to describe intelligibly the military
operations of the contending armies, as all the ac
counts from Vienna to the 21st ult. are exceedingly
confused and contradictory.
13131 TaiusipAANT—Getsr BATTLE.—it is ad
mitted on all eands, however, that the treacherous
Ban of Croatia. Jellachich, has been completely
defeated by the Magyars under Bern. It appears
that Bern crossed the Baer or Franzen's Canal at
the head of 50.000 men, took the entrenchments
of the Croats by storm, and after a series of con
flicts which lasted four days, compelled the Impe
rialists to raise the siege of Feterwardien and to
evacuate the country. ,
The troops of the Ban, dinppointed by the defeat
and diminished by sickness, can make no head
against those Who have matched to the South, and
the Imperialists fear that he will enter Servia and
Sc!aroma.
The Ban itas been driven over the Danube into
Servia—and the Servian Chiet, Knickanim, was
forced to leave his position at The!.
MARCH Or HATNAII TO THE SOOTH.—Gen. Hay

of the people, an fl is now at the head of 100.000

BENI IN TRANSTLVANIA.—Bem writes from Bic.
tritz on the 2d ult. to the effect that atter having ad
vanced in the Grealcago, Vasehleag, Eljafola arid
Bistritz, he kept the Russians shut up in the Rosji
(of all these names, we believe one is right, Big•
tricz; the rest are so twisted that we can't be sure
what they stand for—Ed. 7'rib ) without having
taken a single man from the army operating near
Carlsburg, or against the Wallachians [This is the
first of ally trouble with the Wallicians.— Ed. Trib.
The Commissioner of the Hungarian Govermnt
writes from Hermans adt, under date of the 3d of
Jult•, that the Russsians have been forced to retreat
to Croustadt. Bern was preparing to attack that
city on the Bth or 9th of July.
The seat of the Hungarian Government had been
transferred to Arad'on the 14th of July. This last
circumstance proves the assurance of hopes to fin
ish with the Russians in Transylvania, and, on the
other hand, it confirms the defeat f Jellachich,
because if the army of the South was still formid
able. the Ilurezarian Government would never dare
to select the city of Arad for its residence, as it
would be placed between two fires.
GREAT BATTLE AT WAITEEN.—From a bulletin
by Prince Paskiewitch published in the Weiner
Zerning, we have his version of a sharp action
whch occurred ort the 18th„at or near Waitzen be
tween Gen. Gamey and the Russo-Austrian Gener
als Sass and Ramberg. The bulletin states that on
15th the Hungarian army marched upon Waltzer),
which was then occupied by the Russsian regi
ment, which according to former orders fell
back as the enemy advanced. At night Gen. Gar
gey had secured a stronger position before %Vaiten;
his army was estimate,' at 44,000 men with 120
pieces of artillery. He was at once attacked by
the advanced guard of the Russians under Gen.
Sass. hut his powerful artillery foiled all attempts
that were to dislodge him. The cannonade on
either aide was very severe and the Hungarian
cavalry excuted several violent charges upon the
Russians. On the 16th the main body of. the Rus
sian army was brought up, and on the 17th the
Russians attacked Wei men, and notwithstanding a
desperate resistance, the Hungarians were compell
ed to evacuate the town with the loss of two stand
ards, Iwo cannon and 500 prisoners,
'ln the course of the pursuit it was found that on
ly the rear guard of the Hungarians had been en
gaged, and that their main army had marched to
the North Gen. Rudeger with his cavalry was
dispatched in pursuit.
This is the substance of Russian bnlletin, which
a correspondent of the London Times (an Austrian)
qualifies by stating that it should be used with
great distrust or be looked upon as the forerunner
of very disastrous news.
ITALY. STATE or Roam—Under the military rule
of Gen. Oudinot order and general .tranquility pre
vails at Rome. All public acts are rendered in the
name of the Pope.
Movemr.,rs or Piot!, IX.—ilis Holiness still
continues at Gaeta, but beyond the . fact that he
will remain there until atter the accouchment of
the Queen of Naples nothing seems known. It is
said ho will afterward proceed to Rome in the .full
and unrestricted possession of both temporal and
spiritual authority and that the Preisthood around
him- having learned nothing trom their past niisfor•
tunes resolutely refuse all concession to the popular
party.
THE POPE IN PAT or THE Czan.—lt is stated
how the French army is to be paid but it is repor
ted that Russia has agreed to lend His Holiness
10.000,000 without interest.—the principal to i be
paid at the rate of half a million annually.

The American Consul at Rome had not resum

Na PEACE BETWEEN SARDINA. AND AUNTRIA,—The
Sardinians perhaps with a view to favor the Hun
garians. have been delaying from day to day the
exeeption of the treaty of peace with lustria,-wheie
by a large body of the Ausitian force have been
compelled to remain in Lombanty while they might
be advantageously employed in Hungary.

do not, therefore, appear in the following report.
The untiring application and anxiety with which
those anticipated rewards were Sought, offered a
bundant evidence of their usefulness even to the
most juvenile learner ; and it is gratilying to state
that the solicitude of the teachers and their atten
tion to the mental and moral cultivation of their pu
pils as well as to their acquisition of graceiul man
ners and deportment, have been more than repaid
by the corresponding exertions of the young ladies
during the past year to meet their wishes, and by
the continued and increasing encouragemencwhich
the Institution receives from an enlightened public.
In the Instruction of the French, Spanish and
German classes, 011endorfrs New Method is adop
ted lin the school.

by the votes of their school-mates in the Senior De
partment to Miss Rosanna Sheridon,and in the Ju
nior to Miss Mary Whitney.:
The next session of this institution opens on, Mon
day, September 3d. It is hoped that parents and
guardians will not loose sight of the import nce to
the young ladies of a-return to school without de
lays that cause discouragement at the outset, on
finding their class-mates in advance of them.

Tat TRENTON FALLS DIUSTER.—The Albany
Argus has the following iterative of the melaneholr
event which caused it* death of a gentleman and
lady, brother and sister, at Trenton Falls, near 1:4-
ca, New York, and whieltwas briefly recorded W.
der the telegraph head yesterday :
A son and daughter of Mr. Bryan, of Utica, ant.
wed at the Falls yesterday, and intended to remain
only one day. T,.e daughter Eh= Bryan, was an
accomplished. young lady, aged about nineteen'
Fears. She was remarkable . for great persottal
beauty ; and she possessed all those virtues which
exalt and enoble the female character. The eon,
Edwin Bryan, wasp young gentleman 1)1 fine. tal
ents, aged about twenty-two years. - He, with the
sister, whom I have described, was drowned tbo
morning at a short distance above the tipper fall.—
They went out in the morning from the hotel for
the purpose of viewing the ma,giifieelit scenery
surrounding the falls. They were actrompauiedbp
t vep young ladles, (Misses Campbell s of &Metter•
and also by two young gentlemen from t - tt•
ea : one a Mr. Parker, and the other a Mr. Brown,.
a clerk. in the store of the brother of the younzloo
whose existence was so suddenlyterminxed. Ai
ter a short ramble, the brother and sister separmed
from th- company and started upon an excursion
up the river. On taking their leave they stated that
they would return inAnediately, and desired then .
companions to remain until tliey returned. But :a
consequence of their protracted absence, Mr. Bro%l
started in pursuit of them ; but his search wan gust.
less, he;eould find no el..e to their disappearance'
Parties of gentlemen volunteered to search - for them
and until evenitt,g, active and energetic efforts o'eYe
made to find them. These eflorts all foiled.
Late last night the body of Edward was loan I ton
a peel about forty -lee: deep, at the foot of a rem
ince, from which he had doubtless falleu...Search
was continued for the young lady, but her body
was not found trwil daylight, his morning, wlieti
was taker. from the stream, about fifty heA below
where her brother was found.]
It appeared trom the position of the bodies that
they had wandered—gone further up the stream
than is usual-fot visiters, and proceeded along the
side of the pieclptce, where the path was but iota
or five inches wide, had fallen. and being severely,
bruised by the way, were unable to extricate therii
selves horn the water. It is probable that the yoting
lady fell first, and that the brother was lost
rot at
tempting.tosave her.
