THE SUNDAY I^AWS. We publish on our outside, tho Report of the Committee on Vice .and Immorality, :a the State Senate on the subject .of the repeal of tho Sunday laws. This report is the produc tion of Mr. LAXDON, and is just such a paper as might have been oxpected from him . We append the comments of the Harrisburg Tele graph : The Report is a very candid argument of the question upon its merits. Divested of all clap trap appeals to the prejudices of men, and en tirely free from Pharisaic dogmatism, it is an argument which commends itself to.the reader by its*simplicity and directness, not less than by the skillful manner in which it approaches, and deals with a vexed question. It is very correctly stated, that the existing laws prescribing the cessation of labor on Sunday, do not interfere with the private judg ment or peculiar opinions of any man. They requite no man to attend this chnrch, or the other, and dictate to no man in what his rest aud relaxation from business on that dav shall consist. The laws leave him free to attend church, to sit in his own sanctuary at home,'to walk abroad, or to ride in his own, or hired conveyance. So long as he respects the rights and privileges of his neighbors, the law is to him as though it were not. The observance of one day in seven, or re lief from the cares and anxieties, as from the physical exactions of day labor, one day in seven,' seems to be well grounded in necessity. The morality of the requirement is to plain to be mistauea. YY e do not think it extravagant to &ay r that to labor tbree hundred and sixty live consecutive days is to debauch the body and dwarf the soul. Too much physical ex ertion, hke mental overwork, results in disaster —in disease and premature death. The Mosaic law, touching the Sabbath, acknowledged the moral and physical necessity of its observance very clearly, in its exception of the oz and the ass from kibor on that day. All past experi ence proves, that more opportunity for rest and relaxation than is afforded iu the hours ordinarily devoted to 6leep, is absolutely re quired by ihe working world; and since the law does not prescribe the manner in which this rest aud relaxation shall be enjoyed, any fur ther than to provide against disturbance and not, we do not see how any broader license can be asked for by the anti-church-goiug clas ses. The author of the report has earned, and will receive, the commendation of the best friends of society for the able and impartial manner iu which the subject is discussed The committee has faithfully performed its duty. hiCeuieu cf the Bradford district have cause to congratulate themselves oa their happy selec tion of a gentleman to represent them in the Senate, so well qualified, and so willing to dis charge the duties of the position. Senator LANDOX has not guilty of the fault of " too much speaking," daring the session. lie has made hifhself a reputation for close attention to business, and is cue of those gentlemen who wili rather be felt, than heard, iu whatever position he may be peaccd not withstanding his superior qualities as a speaker and debater. THE SCNBUEY AND ERIE RAILRORD.— The Sunbury and Erie bill, which was so long de hated in our State Legislature, passed i n the following form The bill stays proceeding, under the mortgage of the State, for the sale of the road, for non-paymeut of interest, until February, 1862, and authorizes the company to issue scrip to the amount of $600,0()0, to pay debts contracted for labor and materials between the first of August lat and the first of April. This scrip is to be a lieu upon the road, and to fake precedence of the State mortgage. The friends of the road say that .the work upon it will not be suspended during this year, but will be pushed forward to im mediate completion. A®- President BUCHANAN has sent a Mes sage to the House, protesting agaiust the first two clauses of Mr. COVODE'S resolution provid ing for a Select Committee to examine iuto ui.eged abuses by the President or any other officer of the Government. He defends the President's rights and duties, taking the ground that Cougrcss can act ouly under the impeach ing power. The reception of this -document lead to an exciting debate, and was disposed of by referring the same to the Judieiary Com mittee, of which the Hon JOHN HICKMAN is Chairman. I iio.i James K Panlding forme r ly Secretary of the Havy, died on at farrytown, New Yorb. Qy Some weeks ago there appeared in the Buchanan organ at this place what purported to be a ,letter from Harrisbnrg, grossly de faming our Representative#. The Harrisburg Telfgraph noticing the letter, say* —"The writer of the letter in question took occasion to land to the skies Mr. Jackson, of Sullivan, and at the same time to grossly defame both the Republican members from Bradford connty. We refer to the letter published in the Bradford Herald, a Locofoco paper published by the Postmaster at Towanda, and which was read in the House of Representatives on Monday afternoon. The reading of the letter created considerable suprise and disgust among those who were so well acquainted with the gentle men to whom reference was made. " While we have nothing to say against the laudations heaped upon the radical locofoco member from Sullivan, we do protest, most solemnly, against tho 3landers heaped upon Messrs SMEAD and KINXEY, the members re ferred to. The writer of this article has been constantly on the floor of the House during many sessions of the Legislature, and has not missed a sipgle session of the Honse during the past winter (except a few days beiDg con fined by sickness,) and is therefore able to speak froip the record, and be declares in all sincerity, that Bradford county may be justly proud of her Representatives, Messrs. SMEAD and KINNEY ; both of them have taken active part in the proceedings of the House during tho session just ended, aud were highly res pected by their fellow members. They were alweys able and ready, not only to take part in debate, but engaged in all the important measures before the House. They took a par. ticulariy active part in the passage of the Tariff resolutions, —thus showing that the district which they represent is not in power of free trade, as has been Irequeutly asserted by the Locofocos. The resolutions relative to the organization of Congress received also their active support ; and the able report submited on the subject of the practical establishment of the Slave trade, by Mr. Kinney, speaks for itself. They were always sound on all political subjects. We shall rejoice if their places are so ably filled next session, and would be glad to see the " two term " principle, so extensive ly adhered to in several counties, dispensed with in this case. Messrs. Kinney and Smead are not only fully acquainted with all the busi ness of Legislation, but are well and able to take the responsibility of action." FIRE AT DANVILLE. —Between twelve and ouo o'clock, on Sunday morning, a fire broke out in Finney's building, situated on Mill St., and before the flames could be extinguished, the entire block, consisting of seven or eight buildings, from Mahoning street to Franklin court, were destroyed. The following properties were burnt : Schroth'e restaurant, the Mansion House, kept by Mr. S. Blue, Brum's saloon, Savage's jew elry, and Doran's tailoring establishments.— Mr. Schroth is the heaviest loser. The entire loss amounted to $ 15,000, on which there is a partial insurance. The fire is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. The flames spread so rapidly that it was with diffi culty the personal effects of many of the oc cupants were saved. The firemen and citizens by great exertions saved the adjoining houses. As it is, au en tire square is a pile of smouldering ruins. MR. FRANK SANBORN was one of the wit nesses summoned by the Senate Committee of Investigation in the Harper's Ferry affair, but reeusaut to the writ, was arrested on Tues day evening at his house in Concord, Mass., by a Deputy Sergeant-at Arms. News of the fact speedily flew over that Revolutionary bat. tie-ground, and it was not long before the pri soner was rescued, and 6teps taken to secure a writ of habeas corpus. This was issued by Judge HOARD, and, upon its return befooe a fall Bench of the Supreme Court at Boston, SANBORN was discharged, on the ground that the warrant should have been executed by the Sergeant at-Arras in person. The Court re fused to pass upon other points suggested for the prisoner. An attempt was made to carry the excittment into the Legislature, by a mo tion that the Attorney-General be instructed to appear for SANBORN. It was voted down. A memorial from SANBORN was subsequently presented, setting forth the particulars of his arrest, and demanding protection. No action war had upon it. S&~ Information from Southern Kansas gives rise to apprehensions of serious trouble i:i Linn and Bourbon counties, growing cut of alleged violations of the amnesty act. An at tempt recently made by the Deputy-Marshal to arrest Capt. Montgomery was effectually resisted. Considerable interest is manifested in St. Louis in regard to the approaching trial of the rescuers of the alleged fugitive slave Charley Fisher. The trial commences on Mon day next, before Judge f>ettit of the United States District Court. The river has com menced receding slowly at this point. The wea her is warm aud dry. Mr. IIOOPEB, the Democratic Delegate from Utah, avowed in the House on Monday that Polygamy is now a part of the Mormon Religious faith. In the early days of the sect, and elsewhere than in Utah, the contrary has been maintained. The court of Racine county, Wisconsin, has issued a writ of baiitas corpus in the case of Sherman Booth, now in the custody of the United States, on the charge of inciting to the rescne of a fugitive slave, bnt the marshal has refused obf^euce. S&* By the overland mail with San Fran cisco dates to March 19, which reached Spimg- Geld, Mo., on Friday night, we learn that the Japanese steam -corvette Candinamarrah arriv ed at San Francisco on the 14th of March, in forty days, from Yeddo, sent by the Emperor of Japan to anaonnce that the Japanese Em bassy would leave Kanagawa by the United States steamer Powhatan on the 11th of Feb ruary. The officers and a portion of the crew of the United States schooner Fenimore Coop er, recently wrecked, were. bronght to San Francisco by the Candinamarrah, and at the request of the Emperor,Lieut. John N. Brooks, U. S. N., volunteered to assist the Japanese officers in making the voyage. The excitement relative to the Washoe mines continued, and the emigration thither decreased none. The news from Washington and Oregon, British Columbia, and the Sandwich Islands, is unim portant-. B&f The steamer Niagara, which reached Halifax early on Saturday morning, brings three days later foreign intelligence, her dates being to the 24th ult., from Liverpool, and from Queenstowu the day following. The Sardinian troops had commenced the evacua tion of Savoy, and the French troops, return ing from Lom'bardy, were expected to arrive in that province on the 25th of March. Russia, Prussia, and Austria.in their replies to France, concerning the annexation, had declared in substance that they had no right to interfere. The annexation, it seems, is to be consummat ed without taking the votes of the people, as was done in the Italian provinces jnst annex ed to Piedmont. A demonstration had taken place at Rome in honor of the birthday of Garibald', when the crowd was dispersed by the soldiery ; many persons were wounded.— The agitation in Hungary continued, and a nnmber of arrests had been made in Pesth.— Breadstuffs firm. RHODE ISLAND.—WILLIAM SPRAGUE has been elected Governor of Rhode Island by the combined vote of the Americans, Democrats, and " Conservatives." His majority over the regular Republican nominee is about 1500. Mr. SPRAQCK is the son of AMASA SPRACDE, who was murdered fifteen years ago by a cou ple of Irishmen, named Gordou. This circum stance probably has made him the intense American that he is. He is repnted to be im mensely wealthy and withal liberal. The dem ocrats adopted him and gave him their sup port for the purpose of defeating the Repub licans, in which they have been succersful.— Mr. SPRAOOE'S business relations pave him great strength—every merchant in Rhode Is lund probably bnys and sells Sprague's prints, and many of them, although Republicans, voted for him because intimately acquainted with him, and because he is a worthy man We have no doubt he will make an efficient Governor. fl® - * Senator WIGFALL, of Texas, used the following language, a few days since, in Con gress : " These northern people, of all parties, are a mean, despicable set of starvelings, una ble to see beyond a dollar, and caring for no consideration except money. Threaten them, and they will crouch to your feet like so many hounds. Only swear that you are going to dissolve the Union, and the timid creatures will get down on all fours, bite the dust, and kiss the rod raised to chastise them." The Senator applied this language to Northern Republicans and Democrats indiscriminately. As if to show that it is no piece of empty bravado, the Charleston papers declare that the houses of that city will never be so closely secured and watched as when the Democratic Convention shall be in session, with its hosts of retainers precipitated upon the n. PHILADELPHIA DISTRICTS FOR CAMERON.— The delegatoelections of the Opposition in Philadelphia were held on Wednesday last.— Those in favor of sustaining the action of the State Convention, and co-operating with the delegation appointed by it in support of Sena tor CAMERON for the Presidency,in the Chicago Convention, carried all of the Congressional districts, aud elected their delegates to that Convention. A SENATOR CANED. —The Senator from the Hradford district, Mr. Landon, was handsome ly caned iu his private room at the Jones House, yesterday afternoon, by one of his fel low Seuators, Mr. Ketcham, of Luzerne, in presence of several mutual friends. The last named gentleman, in token ot his high appre ciation of Mr. Landon, as a man and a Sena tor, presented liiin with a magnificent silver mounted ebony cane, accompanying tfie pre sentation with a welitimed, chaste aud eloquent address, to which the recipient, taken eutirely by surprise, made an appropriate response.— We can assure the constituents of Mr. Landon that the caning bestowed upou him by Mr. Keicbam was richly meiited. We would not object to similar treatment at the hands of some appreciative friend.— Jlarrisburg Ttli graph. FRANK PIIELPS is a joker, a jovial fel low, with a ready reply to any remark under almost aDy circumstances, but a friend at our elbow says he saw him completely non plussed a few days since. In a small village in Liv ingston Co., where he had advertised to " act out," his favorite horse was taken 6ick. The process of drenching the horse brought togeth er quite a crowd. Iu order to exercise him.be put one of his boys on him to ride, with noth ing but a baiter to guide him, and from bis style, some one remarked that " that horse would run away if be had a chance." "Run I ruD 1" says Frank with his peculiar emphasis. "Wall, that boss would soouer run than eat." A big-mouthed, slouched-bat boy, with a drawl ing voice, exclaimed : " Why don't you let him run then ? It's cheaper than to feed him The unanimous shout so frightened the horse he was put back in the stable convalescent, .and the t oag was duly placed on the " dead head" list.— Elmira Press. LOCAL AND GENERAL. The Black Democracy of thla Coonty have baen la a ferment for the past few days la relation to the appointment of Aasietant Marshals to take the census or this County. We have no dispoeition to pry into their family matters, but we understand that the gentleman from Wysox, who haa the especial chargt of " the party " here, is anxious that a part of tha profits shall enure to hia benefit-by being applied to the purchase of the Herald materials, which he claims to own. The prominent applicants object to being thus black mailed, and the inevitable Col. is playing his usual game to pre vent their appointment. The army in Flanders never swore more roundly than some of the " faithful " at his dictation—bnt for all that,we surmise they will be obliged to submit. RUNAWAYS. —During the past few days sev eral runaways have occurred in onr streets from horses becoming frightened. On Friday, a young lad named O'KXEPE, driving a horae belonging to the Catholic Priest in descending the hill on Pine street, the horse became unmanageable, and ran away, npaetting the wagon, and aeriocaly injuring the boy. DELEGATES TO CHICAGO.—A Connty Con vention was held in Montrose, on Monday evening, April 2d' for the purpose of taking measures to provide for the election of district delegates to the Chicago Convention. ALBERT CHAMBERLAIN and 0. G. HEMPSTEAD were elect ed Conferees, and Hon. WM. JESSOP and W. J. TCRRELL, recommended for delegates. —We were in error in stating that Tioga had chosen Conferees. We observe in the last Agitator that a meet ing was called for last Tuesday evening fot that purpose. MUSICAL CONVENTION.—A Musical Conven tion will be held at Rome, commencing Tuesday, April 24, 1860, to continue four days and close with a Concert, the whole io be under the direction of Prof. T. E. PER KINS, of the Normal Academy of Music, Geneseo, N. Y. Prof. P. has lately held a Musical Convention at Troy, and those who attended were de'ighted with him as a conductor. A pleasant and profitable time may be ex pected at Rome. The citizens of that place will exert themselves to the utmost, to make the Convention satis factory. a®" The members of Franklin Fire Compa ny, No. 1, will meet at the Engine House next Saturday, (April 14) at 4 o'clock, P.

Subject for discussion," The Pathology and Treat ment of Rheumatism." E. H. MASON, Secretary. LATHROP BALDWIN, one of the oldest citi zens of Elmira, died on Tuesday last. Many Of the older citizens of this County, knew Mr. 8., and mourn his de cease. 4®- Mr. William T. Ross, a shoemaker, who has been working in this place, for a short time, and latterly doing business over Phinney's store, has been engaged in playing a sharp game, by purloining Sheep pelts, belonging to Solomon A Kirby.and selling them to different palties. On Monday last, he offered a lot to these gentlemen, when on examination they were con vinced that they were a part of their stock, and Ross was charged with the theft. He suddenly had business which called him away. and when last heard from, he was several miles from town, making hia way for gome other place. REPUBLICAN CLUBS. —The Republicans of Burlington township are entitled to the credit df having organized the first Club in the County, with reference to the approaching Presidential campaign, as will be seen by the following proceedings. In pursuance of a call of the voters of Rurlington town ship, a meeting was held at the Mountain Lake School House, on Saturday evening. March 31st, for the purpose of organizing a Republican Club for said township. The meeting was called to order by electing D. M. ALEXANDER, Chairman and A.M. HAIOHT, Secretary, pro Urn. The meeting was thenaddressed by C. F. NICH OLS and others, after which they proceeded to organize the Club by electing I. A. WEED, permanent President of the meetings duringthe campaign, and ZEPIIAMAH LANK D. I). SELLECK, Vice-Presidents, and A. M. HAIOUT, Sec retary. On motion, the following gentlemen were chosen Cor responding Committee—M. J. SMITH, S. DODD, D. M. ALEXANDER, R. M. PRUYNE and J. TKAVEKS, Jr. C. F. NICHOLS, was elected Treasurer. On motion, the meeting adjourned to meet at the School House at Lane's Coiners, Saturday evening, April 7th, 1860. . o> r A.M. HAIGHT, Sec'y. JST Temperance address will be delivered at the Baptist Church, in this borough, on Friday even ing next, by CHARLES M. MANVILLE. On the 13th inst., a little boy in his sixth year, a son of THOMAS BURGESS of Smithfield, while laughing with a kernel of corn in his mouth accidentally sucked it into his windpipe. This was followed by a se vere paroxysm of coughing, which lasted a few minutes and nearly subsided. Dr. E. P. ALREN saw him a few hours after, aad on examination found that the kernel had passed into the left bronchial tube and seemed fixed in its position. There being but a slight cough and no very great difficulty in respiration, the Doctor thought not best to interfere until more urgent symptoms present ed ; hoping that it might be thrown from the lung dur ing a fit of coughing. The little fellow kept about three or four days, when a high fever obliged hira to take his bed. Itespiratiou became more difficult. On the 23d the symptoms became so alarming it was thought unsafe to defer longer an operation, when Dr. ALLEN, assisted by Dr. HOLMES, of Canton, performed Tracheatomy in a neat and skillful manner. The corn had swelled and become impacted in the bronchial tube to that extent it could not be removed. The wound in the windpipe was left open with the expectation of suppuration taking place around the corn, when the corn would be raised into the windpipe and thrown out of the opening, which happy result took place on the 17th inst., followed by about one half ounce of pus. The little fellow is now decidedly convalescent, and the painful anxiety of his parents and friends greatly relieved E. J. B. PIKE'S PEAK.—A former resident of this County, lately returned from Pike's Peak, has communi cated to us the following information, which may be use ful and interesting to those who have turned their tho'ts towards that El Dorado. He says—l arrived at the mines about the first of July last. The principal difficulty we had to encouuter was the discouraging reports brought back by returning emi grants who had never reached the gold region. The In dians have been very friendly up to this time, and have not molested a single party. After arriving at the mines the miners are too apt to become excited \jy rumors of other and better diggings, and Wave a good claim to start on a prospecting tour, and not being accustomed to work, and inexperienced in the business, in many instances make a failure, while others who have made np their minds to hard labor, and stick to their work, get well paid. lam satisfied that gold abounds in paying quanti ties, and the relations I had with the miners from the different districts warrants me in saying that it is destined to become a rich gold producing country—sec ond to none. Much gold has been nndoubtedly wasted by careless washing , as in California the dust In many pluces pays wsll for a second washing. The gold la diffbrent in vari ous mines! the Sooth Platte being seals gold, while North Is shot and mgget. Ths largest pices 1 saw weigh ed 170 pennywnight*—vahw Meant* per pennyweight. I think the average per man woaid be abont 10 peMiy weights a day Mat indnMand that all have made that—for the majority did not make day wages, $1,60, while ether* made their thousands of dollars, and hare valuable claims left. The lead claisu are considered by Califore'lans to be 50 per cent, better, while the gulches do as well as those in California In the same time and under tl same ci reams Unco*. The amount of farming land la small; being a narrow atrip along the streams. This Is very productive, vegeta tion growing very rapidly. The climate is said to be very much like California and Salt Lake Valley. My brother writes me that np to the 18th of February there had been no severe weather, stock living on grass and doing well. If any person from Bradford contemplates going to Pike's Peak, 1 would advise them to go to St. Josephs, by railroad, then the California road to Fort Kearney, and the South Platte. St. Josephs ia aa good an outfitting post as any. Stock, wagona and provisions can be bad there on favorable terms. A good supply of dried fruit is desirable, to counteract the effects of the alkaline wa ter. Great quantities of arms and ammunition is a nui sance, and not wanted. A good rifle is necessary how ever, as thousands of buffaloes, deer, wolves, Ac., will ba seen. While I have no question aa to the existence of gold in abundance, yet I think that persons who are doiug well in Bradford had better stay there. The labor in the mines is very hard, and precarious ; for one man who ia repaid, ten are disappointed, and lose their time, money and health. It partakes too much of the nature of a lottery to make it desirable or certain. Stt' Let oar readers and especially the af flicted, remember the Indian Doctor, from Elmira, N. Y., will be in Towanda, at the Ward House, the 25th and 26tb of April, to help all who are within the reach of his remedies.

Brother Rossei.r.'s sickness was very brief but severe, for only one week from the day he was taken, we laid him in the silent grave, in hope ot a blessed immortality. For some time previous to his death, he was impressed with the klea that his time was short upon the earth, and hence, he had been setting his house in order for his de parture. His family now set in sorrow around the fami ly altar. Yet they mourn not as those who have no hope, for their loss is his gain. May the great head of the Church bless this affliction, to the good of the children, and lead them to the God of their Father. The M. E. Church has lost one of its prominent mem bers, and society one of its best citizens. May the Lord sustain the widow in her affliction. E. F. ROBERTS.
