Ddringtbe lost campaign the.wluga attempted
: to make the peoplo believe that Got. Johnston
bad paid over; $600,000t of the state debt by
tonans of .tho smking-fnud.. Now we have ar;
nvod at the horn it.was,-done.. The loonunder
Gov. Johnston of tUo 19th of April, 1849, was
$400,000: the defioit left in the treasury when
Jobnston>left office. waß considerable over $BOO,-
■OOOrfor whieb ■ Bigler bad to sign a bill author
- idng-tbe Slate T&osurcr to contract a loan.—
These two loans; over $700,000 far overbalance
' tho money paid by Johnston ..into, the sinking
innd. - - Does o this show economy on the part, of
the Whigs ? Far from it. It has been shown
that Gov.'Shqnk really did redneo the State
Debt, and although it was not in rash large
"amounts as claimed..by Jolinstonites, yet at
was in reality done, and got by taking from one
place and turning it over to another.
• The above is from tho Lebanon Advocate. It
speaks “by tho card,” and can be relied opon.
There never was a time, when the Whigß were
in power, that they did not show, from tho
books, that they had acted honestly, according
■ to their notions--. But, when tho books came to
be posted by Democratic book-keepers, their
• direlictions were readily discovered. . It was so
during the reign of Sttncrism, tho simple old
man, wh o leaned himself to Stevens, Burrows,
& Co., to carry out their nefarious designs, and
- tho same-party,-when they got Johnston in their
clutches, thought," that,- with their own no*
1 tnrai - canning,' and ■ his innate., duplicity, they
could humbug the people. They failed, however,
and the postingaip of the books shows that
Johnston’s administration, like all the other
Whig ones that proceeded him, is a humbug,
and a serious tax upon the people.
' Wo hope that the people will look at this mat
ter in the proper spirit. Gov.. Bianca has gone
'’into office to servo them, and we knowenough
; of him to say that, in tho disoliargo of his du
ties," he will perform what is required without
the fearef, or expectation of favor from any
man.- The paragraph quoted above showß “how
it was done ” under the Whig administration of
JonssTON; we now wish thepenpleto observe
how it eSI bo done under tbe Democratic admin
istration of Branca.

' ggy A friend has called our attention to the
above which appeared in yesterday’s Journal.
: The story is not only ridiculous but totally do
■void of truth. Having been, an eye witness to
bto of relating the facts, which are simply as
• follows*" 1 When "the cars- arrived at Salerno
-. committee, ofthecUizens of the town waited

him; during the brief period the cars stopped
mowing to the shortness of ihestay, (the whistle
- of cars was even then ringing in Wb ears,) do
- partake of tho dinner, which had been prepared
by the generous hdarted and patriotic people of
-that rich and- beautiful country. Immediately
after the ceremonies at the Hall were concluded,
Gov. Kossuth left for tho cars, which in another
-moment were on ** their winding way” to Cleve
' -landi « The story about taking -‘‘from a bag or
something, a loaf of bread and a great piece,of
? pork,wEichhe conj ugallyshared with Madame/’
"is ataunchousenism,’ aud. has neither wit nor
truth to sustain it. The Austrian presshad bet
ter try again.
Eg&»Wc observe that the editor of the Ga
zette ig apprehensive that his brother of the
-JToUniaZ has made n felonious effort to steal his
Scott thunder, and at the same time that it
speaks in high praise of the Gazette’s favorite,
gives tko gallant General a severe “ fire in the
sear” (in the opinion of the Gazette) on acoonnt
of his non-intervention, opinions.
The Gazette was the original friend of Seott in
"this city. When it committed itself for him, it
- thongbtit had caught a “weakness" that would
; bleose'the whig party, and that “fnss andfenth
"ers” would smt their putpose just os well as tal
ent and experience, Tho Journal kept dark for
’ awhile, and the Gazette felicitated itself with the
idea tbatit had taken tho right schute, and at
the same time, taken the whig wind ont of tho
sails of its colleague. But it appears, that tho
./ourrcZ is right on the Scott- notion of inter,
--vention, and. that the Gazette is wrong. What
-will the Gazette do now 9 Scott is its favorite,
and certainly, the best “available” in tho whig
party; hut he appears to have put his foot into
the Gazetie'rnodona of intervention, and to have
splashed out the “sonp lr in a mostinappropriato
manner. The Journal,, however, Jio3 lapped it
up with, a peculiar zeßt, and we apprehend that
its editorial, columns' will make a noise for
_ months to esme, from the Scott thunder it has
stolen from tho Gazette This is a question that

not even in the Bysfcem of levying duties, will be
mode in tho present tariff, daring this session of
Congress. Tho vote recently taken on the ques
tion of substituting specific for ad valorem duties,
was of Buch a decided character,, that it was
killed outsight.”
At the Bank of England there is a further in
crease to its stook of bullion, but the reserve
had further decreased, showing an moroaso in
its business. Wo had observed a steady in
crease in its business for the last four weeks.—
At the latter part of December, it had over
twelve millions of notes nmssuod, m its banking
department. On the 17th of January, it had
not more than ten, while by its Increase of bul

and, forgetting the past, to unite for the success

shall endeavor to givo you an account of Now
Year’s day proceedings. Extensive arrange
ments are making for a grand “ blow out. ’ But
I am forgetting myself. I only set down to give
you an item or two about tlio diggings. Since
I last wrote, I have visited sevoral of the mining
districts in this vicinity. About a week since,
for the first time, I visited Columbia, and was
mock pleased with tho place. Columbia is nbou
five miles distant from our camp; it lies.m a
small valley, surrounded by mountains. The
valley is known us tbo Columbia Flats. Tno
diggings aro noh and very extensive; bnt unfor
tunately they are without water, tlio want of
which has been a very serious drawback upon
the people of Columbia. The water used in tlio
town has to bo carried a distanco of one mile.
It is but a short time since there were one hun
dred and fifty buildings in the process of erec
tion, all of which have sincebeen completed, with
the addition of numerous others. The rains
which have fallen within the last few days, will
make this littlo F.ldorado nourish ci|unl to the
expectations of the most sanguine. The great
ditoh which is now being oonstrnoted to carry
water from the Stanislaus river, tuds through
Columbia, which will enable many of ihc nonets
to reap a rich harvest.
While in Columbia I had the pleasure of moot
ing threo Pittsburghers, viz: 1-icnt. Mcl.aiu, Mr.
Anthony, and Mr. Courtnght. There are seve
ral others in the place; but 1 could not spare
time to remain and see them. Mr. Anthony,
(formerly a blacksmith, and worked for 8.
Stackhouse.) keeps the .American Hotel. Mr.
Courtriglil, (formerly n Pilot on theOmo.) keeps

the Columbia House. Lieut. M’Lain is carry

1 believe ore doing well.
While nt tho American, through the kindness
of the proprietor, 1 Was shown quite a curiosity,
whioh had a few days previous been dog from a
bole at Gold Spring. It was found Jorly fed
below the Barfaoe. It is an enormous bach
tooth of some Levelbian. it measures 8.1 in
ches in length, 2$ m width; nnd !1 tram the top
to the connection of the jaw. It is m a stato of
putrefaotion. Tho miners aro bard after a few
more of the Animal's bones. It they sucoccd,
I presume they will forward them to Bar
num.
There aro many noh portions of country witli
in two miles of Columbia: among the most
prominent of which aro Qold Spring, Expert*
mental Gulch anti Vino Spring. In all of tho
Columbia Flats tho earth pays from the surface.
In Shaw's Flat, on (as it has been lately
named) Pyrmont, tho minora aro all doing
well at tho present time. During tbo summer,
mining operations could only be onrned on by
carting the dirt to tho water, which was both
troublosoma and expensive. let those who ope
rated made from $lO to $2O per day. The Sul
livan’s Creek 'Water Company aro about to fur*
nish water to enable all tho miners to work du
ring tho Bummer months, which will cause this
already thriving little village to flourish.
There aro quite anumborof rospoctable fami
lies located on those Flats, which of itself is suf
ficient to insure tho success and happiness of
those who are so fortuuato as to havo located
their claims omong the ladies.
Mormon oreek has been pretty woll worked
out on tho upper part of it. Lower down, how
ever, tho minors havo been doing well all sum
mer Tho Into rains will put a stop to their
operations. Tho same may be said of Mormon
Gulch There has boon little or nothing done in
Jackson Flats during tho laßt summer. These
Flats aro supposed to bo very rich. ‘I hero is now
sufficient water to commonoo operations.
Tho company to which I am connected, havo
five olaims on those Flats, all of which we expect
will pay us handsomely for working.
Mathews, Wilson, Kane and Marlatt, all Pitts
burghers, have also olaims on this Flat, The
gentlemen named are all well. So also is Mo-
Grogor, who is located a short distance below
us, on Mormon creek.
I may hero mention that nearly the whole
range of oonntry lying between the Table Moun
tain and Stanislaus river, is now paying pretty
well; tins range includes Mormon Crcok, Mor
mon Guloli, Jackson Flats, Jackass Guloh, Sotd
iors’ Guloh, Tutletown, Cognac Guloh, Dead
Man’s Ravine, Table Mountain Flats, and nu
merous other diggings, which I oannot now re
collect. Table Mountain Is the dividing lino be
tween the diggings above mentionod and thoso
of Wood’s Creok, Jamestown, formorly Ameri
can Camp, Camp Saoo, Cbilb, Solomon's Creek,
and others. Wood’s Creek Is about 50 miles in
length, and is litternlly torn up from one end to
tbo other.
Siuob tho late rains, tho miners having been
oompelled to leave tho creeks, havo struok very
rioh veins high up iu tho banks and on the hill
sides. Sonora is situated on Wood’s creok,
about oao and a half miles distant from Table
Mountain, but of thiß more anou.
-Table mountain is, in itself, a curiosity worth
looking at. It is about forty miles'in length,
nndinJ breadth from two to three hundred yards.
The top of it can be oompared to nothing else

Demooraqy is powerful becauao it is the mo

Its chief element is duty—its liberty, the right
of evory mm to live m accordance with the laws
of God, which require him in all his relations os

Invasion or England by France*
The late news from England, in relation to a
probable war between that country and France,

military movements in England, says:
“We do not think that any of these move
ments in England have any special reference to
Franoe, or originate in any fear of rupture with
her. It is more probable, wo conceive, that
Great Britain has resolved tp givo a strong neg

ers have more than once almost demanded that
England shall no longer be a refnge for political
offenders, and is disposed to show those des
potisms that she is quite prepared to stand by
her refnsal to comply with the demand
In confirmation of this idea, the London Stan

it is the intention of Louis Napoleon to redaoe
