But stay=he is not dead f- There he lies, alive, in his 'horrible prison, and be knews all that has happened--how, whilst he was reading, Some in. • stentrineous change came o'er him, which deprived hire of. all power of motion, and- paralyzed every facility bat those of thoUght and hearing—how he was prodounced to be dead, - and placed in his cotßn•—how merry the watchers were who sat by his side—bow be was borne to the . grave; and -heir the clods rumbled over his head, yet not - loud enough - to drown the soul thrilling shrieks of his wite and little ones. He struggled in en agony of despair' to, cry aloud, but the nightmare of death was upon him, and when he beard the last foot. steps - of the retiring funeral train grow faint in tbe,distance,he felt that he:was lost—lost forever. In this state of despair all consciousness left him. Time was merged into eternity, and he • laid, , maybe kir a few minutes, maybe a week, as unknowing is the .mouldering remains of his neighbor in the.adjoining grave. At length thought • again took or; its abode in that fearful tenement, and the greatest horror that unburied man:has ever imagined to, beta! the spirit after death, whether it be To bathe in fiery flooda,or to reside In thrilling regions of thick•ribbed ice ; To be imprisoned in the viewless winds, 'And blown with restless violence about The world;" Or .any other, frightful thing that, pen has ever written; falls far, far short of the mental agonies anduied in ~that imprisoned body. -At one time `fincy - conjured ,up the idea that the natural heat of his body had gradually filled the narrow coffin, arid having 'no means of escape was condensing • itself into elemental fire, and eating its way slow , ob,low slowly, into his flesh. The anguish of - rbat'voiceless soul was pent up, but the convolv. . , jag. fiery, streams of a volcano were heaving his . ,- brain,,whilst the; body was. being consumed -by inehei; for there is no hurry in the grave. At length -the powers of nature were exhausted, and alseriielnied all for a. season. Ab t wretched man, cOAd thy sleep but last forever, happy were it for thee. but no such boon shall fall to thy tot. Wire even thy power of motion unlocked per. chance life 'might be shortened by the violence of thy - straggles. But no; all is still as death. '-Now the spirit again awakes, and this time is , frightened by the, thought of suffocation. We rat7"exclaim of a dead man-- • his face is black and fall of blood ; His eyeballs farther out than when be lived, Staring fall ghastly, like ,a strangled man htur opreared,bia nostrils stretched with strag- But what:is that in comparison with the living spirit imprisoned in a body as motionless as a statue. of marble, yet suffering endlessly all the Flange that man on earth can feel but for an in stant. Oh, is is foe horrible. After suffering by; this' phantasm of the brain fora period-which seemed an eternity; because no incident external to his own being could show him the_ lapse of time and mark its flight; he was at length relieved from the power of his ter ribly excited fancy, and judgment was perthitted once more to , have sway, in that dreadful abode. „ "He now perceived the full force of his hopeless condition. Buried six feet beneath the surface of 'the earth-Lsurrounded byg raves—away from the tide of living men—hopeless of any corpse being deposited near—and, worse than all, deprived of every'power, by, which he could draw the attero tion bf any who might approdch, even should the spade graze the very coffin which - enclosed him!

We wish them all succees: The following article which we copy from Suer . dare Chronic/e s completely refutes a wicked . filander widely circulated by Captain Garments enemies: No °rig, we . presume, is disposed to object to the Diapatch favoring whom it likes-best for the ilVlayor. alty ; but when that sheet, or any other, that claims ti moderate share of respectability, resorts to open, direct, positive and palpable falsehood, to injure e gentteman, it is time that a check should be put to the calumny. The story of the Dispatch, that Capt. Guthrie opposed the election of Patrick McKenna to the Mayoralty, because he was a Catholi c, _is wt. true ; the story that Capt. Guthrie opposed rdr.Ble• Kenna at all is also untrue. At the time Mr. Mc- Kenna wale candidate - for the Mayoralty, Mr. Guthrie trail a citizen of Peebles Township. There is not in the City of Pittaburgh a more tol. Brant gentleman than Capt, Guthrie. Raised in one of the strictest Protestant sects, hif does not think it necessary to interfere with the religious opinions of any one; because he would petit:like& ono to in terfere with his. In conclusion, it may be of some interest to the Dispatch to know that Mr. McKenna understands the shallow game which its advisers tire attempting to play off upon some of our Cattle. lic citizens. He sn4 his particular friends are among the warmest supporters Capt. Guthrie has in the community.. The Dispatch will perceive from these facts, the necessity of, some other calumny to injure Capt.

A Slander Nulled eo the Counter. t -' ~ v "~:_ :DUTY OF. THE DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS .OF :The most important buiness that wilt be brought before the Legislature of Pennsylvania, now in onion, will be the election of a 'United States Senator, in plaid of Dr. -TIIAGEON. The Pemoetate haven large majority on joint ballot, and therefoie have it in their power to elect-u member of our own Party to fill the highly lin. portent dike mentioned. It -le now and alWaychas beert.the custom of the Democratic members of the Legislature to go into Caucus, Tot the purpose of making party no minations. Every candidate's name goes sbefore 'the Caucus, with the clear understanding that the one who receives a Majority of votes shall tie de• dared the choice of the party, and the friends of all other candidates will honorably abide by the. result. - Such being the established usage of the party, we take it for gritnted that the Democratic mem bers Of. the Legislature, now in session at Harris burg, will not depart therefrom. If, iherefore, any member who was elected as a Democrat, should refuse to go into the. Legislative Senatorial Cau cus, or- having gone in. shciald afterwards refuse to regard its action` as binding, such person thereby makes war upon the principles of our party; is a traitor to its organization, and should never be trusted •again. If ever the. People of Pennsylvania decided any matter, by their vote at the poll; we think they last October decided that no one but an honest, talented, patriotic, radical Democrat, should be elected U. S. Senator. Had a single person who came before the people as a candidate for their suffrages previous to the last annual election de. dared that he was opposed to going into Legisla tive Caucus, or proclaimed that he was in favor of the election of that unprincipled renegade, St.. xe CATIEWIN, to the U. S. Senate, we think we are perfectly safe in saying that he would not have received ten votes in his district! So deci ded are the Democracy in their opposition to the disorganizing and dishonest schemes of Casiattorr, that no man calling himself a Democrat would have dared to have avowed himself es the politi cal friend of that bold, bad man," previous_ to submitting his name to the judgment of the Peo• pre. We think that the duty of the Democratic members of the Legislature is clear as the noon. day sun. fhey should all go info Caucus, and then agree to honorably abide by its decision. Any other course would be attended with disaster to the party. So far as we are informed, every good Democrat whose name has been mentioned in connection with the Senatorship, will allow his name to go before the Caucus. C....Kano:es only hope for success is in bargaining with the Feder al members of the Legislature, and giving them secret pledges. That many of the Representak tives of that party will be disposed .to favor the ambitious schemes of the Cashier of the Middle. town Bank, we have abundant reason to believe. They will do any thing and every thing in their power to disorganize and destroy the Democratic party. Their motto is "divide and conquer."— But at the same time we incline to the belief that 1 there are some Whigs in the Legislature who are too honest to assist in again sending the %Vi.,ne. bago Chief to the United States Senate. • For t 3 / 4 s Manning Post.

It is seldom that any new project, however fea sible, is suggested or started, but sneers and jibes are thrown out in various quarters, end Editors are prone in lend their "sheets. for tic exhibition of 'opposed wit. The above extracts are an exemplificatien of this truth. They refer to the plan of Mr. Ellett, ler providing water, by its retention in reservoirs, suffi. dent for supplying the Ohio river with water Tor navigation, during the dry and cannier months. To those acquainted with the topography of North Western Pennsylvania and its adaptation for retaining a large supply of water, the plan of Mr. Ellett is far from appearing problematical. As early as 1896 the attention of the writer was drawn to this plan of reservoira by Mr. Ayeoigg, the talented Engineer then in the serviro of the COM. monwealth. His explorations were for the object of ascertaining the beat and moat feasiblit coedit and route for connecting the West Branch Canal with the Allegheny River, along its tributaries, the Clari• on or Red Bank. The face of the country, its large and numerous natural basins upon every tributary of the Allegheny, cheapness.of;land to overflow, will, to the moat C-211* ual observer, conceive the plan of Mr. Ellett as en titled to great consideration. The city of Pitts burgh has more interest in this matter than any other on the Ohio; for while the Ohio is rendered naviga ble the entire season, the Allegheny is made no tees so, by this retention of its surplus waters, to be let off as occasion require.. The writer is not disposed at present to enter in to a mathematical calculation of the cubic feet of water required for supply and evaporation, nor to measure the. waters of the Ohio with a quart pot, but: simply to suggest to tho witty scribblers against Mr. Ellett.s plan, that ridiculing' projects of improvement and the enterprises of the age, is no mark of wisdom. NORTH-WESTERN PA. A Tragical Affair. MAN SHOT BY A Wortatr.—We learn from the Marion (Ma.) Commonwealth, that, on the night of the 24th ult., a man by the name of.R. J. Morse was shot and instantly killed by Mrs, Sarah Ann Still. man, the wife of John A. Stillman, who is by trade a painter. Morse was a carpenter, and leaves a wifo and four children. The Commonwealth says : Mr. Stillman resided in a small house near the walls of the new Female Seminary building, now in the course of erection in Marion. Morselled been at work on the new building. Mr. Stillman was elp sent, while his wife and three small children were left at home by themselves. The report of the gun aroused the neighbors—who upon repairing to the spot foiled the gun of Mr. Stillman lying on tho floor, with ono barrel empty, a hole through a pane of glass and Morse on the outside dead, with a shock. trig wound over the right eye, his face blackened with piawder and his brains literally blown out." It is truly a tragical affair. Mrs. Stilltnan is a small and.delicate female, and we are sate that she must have believed her honor and perhaps her life to great peril, before she could have been , induced to take a gun oven into her hands. Sn fearfully alarm. ad was she that she fled from the house in her night dress, after firing the gun, leaving her children where they were found and conveyed to her at the neigh hoes, where she had taken refuge. We learn from a private source that great excite ment prevailed the next day, and that public opinion fully justified Mrs. Stillman.

This is a coesequence.rloWing.Oht of .the harmonious course resolved upon by the Democracy, and which it is to be hoped will be.observed -during the remainder-td" the Session. _ - to;Monday 13 vening the all absorbing question was, who' shall be !pinker t Although a,- best of candidates were announced.in.tho.early- part of the 'canvass,:,bydegreetrifie'number grew less;-iintil at, length all had withdrawn, save ,three—ifr. Cessna, .Mr. Rimy and Mr. Scofield. The contest now be came exceedingly interesting eta trier-ids of the respeative candidates laboring with most cometenda- ble zeal in beitalf of tlieir favorites. #o Close did the chances run, that -on Monday morning, all , seemed doubt and uncertainty; but as the hour for the meeting of the caucus advanced, there appeared little difficulty in the minds or the members in re• gard to the fortunate man. Ceesneti star was in the ascendant, and on first Ballot he was ,chosen the candidate by the following htindsome votes Cessna, Rimy, Scattering,— ..... This important matter disposed of, the Speaker ship of the. Senate next claimed attention. Con jecture was rife as to the cause of the Whigs.-- Rumors of the disaffection of Senator Brooke were industriously circulated, in every direction, by Whig and Democrat. The hopes ofthe candidates for the offices in the gift of the Senato;"silddenly sunk beg low the freezing point, while Democratic stock was at par. The Whig Caucus met, but Senators Brooke" and Savory were among the missing, and the Whig Caucus adjourned without doing any thing. At 9 o'clock on Tuesday morning it again met, and with similar tesnita--Brooke and Savery being still amongst the absent. At 3 o'clock the Senate met, and hundreds ,of spectators crowded the chamber in anticipation of ORIO rich scenes. But in this, they were disappointed, as the grave Senators pre.. served their dignity, and conducted themselves throughout with a decorum highly creditable un. . der the circumstances. Several ballotinga were had; through the whole of which, the Democrats, with commendable unanimity, gave their entire strength to their worthy former Speaker, Senator Mc. Cardin. The Whigs, en the contrary, were as widely separated es the antipodes. A dozen candidates were voted for, and Senator Brooke, with one eye to number one, always reserved his vote to the last, with the hope of securing the election of a particu lar friend, or, what seems more likely, his own.-- But disappointment is the lot of mortals, and Sena tor Brookes maneuvering was not successful. Dis pirited by what had transpired, a motion was made to adjourn over to Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock. In the meantime, another Caucus was held—Senators Brooke and Savery still absent. This last meeting resulted in the nomination or Mr. Matthias of Philadelphia ; and this morning, we shall know whether Brooke will carry his point or fail. Without having any particular authority for raying so, my impression is that a Whig Speaker can be elected only by dividing the patronage of the Sen ate with those who rightfully claim a share—the Democrats. The chalice presented to the lips of the Dernocrats last winter, is now returned to the Whiga; and they mutt drink of its contents—per haps, drain it to the very dregs. There is an old adage, that *I , curses, lih young chickens, come home to roost." Altering the - phraseology slightly, it wilt apply most forcibly to the Whigs. The ta him mst:trued, and the puty who last winter threw firebrands into the midst of the Democrats, now finds itself at the mercy of the elements of discord en fully scattered by thorn at that time. The Decincratin 4 Curses, enc. tho °ruination or sobotati4to otritors, mot loot might, and selected Mr, Kelly, of Philadelphia county, as their condi. dote fur Sergeant-at-A . rme ; Mr. Coleman, of Derks, for Doorkeeper ; and Mr. Acrood, of Schuylkill, for Messenger.

They are brief, and to the paint, and will command general adreirati lion. The success which has attended Mr. Cessna's career thus far, is highly creditable to him, To his active business qualifications, together with his un impeachable Democracy, may be attributed this re• suit ; snit, if properly used, as I have no doubt it will be, his elevation to the Speakership of ‘ ihis House, will only be the stepping stone to other and morn distinguished honors. It is rumored here that tt is the intention of the Senate not to go into an election for United States Senator. Mad as have been vomo of the pranks of Whiggery, it is ddlicult to conceive that they will so far abandon their policy is to adopt a course so certainly destructive to them. The voice of iodic. nation that would be raised against them from every bill and valley of our glorious old Commonwealth, would appal and paralyze them. They dare not do it. The results that lollowed a like step, in 1837, have not been forgotten—nor are they likely to be. It is the earnest prayer of the Democrats that they will attempt it—as the consequences that would itn. mediately follow, would beanother tower of strength to the Democracy. The Senate has just been organized by the election of Mr. Matthias, Speaker. As this could be effect ed only by. Mr. Matthias , own vote, several of the Democratic Members relieved him from this unplea sant necessity by withholding their votes—thus giving him a - majority on the second ballot. Brooke was rebellious until within fifteen minutes of the opening of the Senate, when her suddenly wheeled into ranks and pulled as vigorously as any otherSen titer for the regular nominee. It is said that Judge Myers threatened - to vote for MiCselin, if Brooke did not retreat,—which threat, it is thought, brought the rebellious Senator to his business. The elections and appointments , yet to come off, will tell whether be was influenced bye promise or Judge Myers , threat. Yours, SPRIG.
