-2 '- HON. GEOUGE W. WOODWARD.
. She Bearer Star, , a sterling Democratic jour
- nalj has raised the name of tho Hen. Geoege
.-iWi'-WoonwAßD, of Luzerne county, to its mast
: head,, as tho Democratic candidate for Jadgo of
the Supreme Court, for tho unexpired term of
Judge Coulteji, dcc'd. The editor of the Star
; says: We think so much of tho man, that wo
-. have put him up as the Democratic candidate to
’ ( fill.tha vacanoy occasioned by the death of Judge
r .Goultcr. ' If this motion, is seconded, as we hope
. it will be, by all tho Democratic papers in tho
'. State, Judge Woodward will bo our candidate,
and'cun he elected, without the trouble .of caU
ing a Convention to make a nomination. ; It is a
■ foregone conclusion, in our mind, if a conven
tiohwas called, Judge Woodward would be the
nominee. Then let us oU unite upon him, and
•• elevate him ta the position bo is so well (Qualified
.to fill."
••• We cordially indorse tho suggestions of our
.friend-of the Star, as we believe ninc-tenthß of
2 the Democracy'of Pennsylvania woutd bo witling
• to consider Jndgo Woodwaud as oar candidate,
. without tho trouhlo and expense of holding a
State Convention. Asa Jurist he occupies the
highest and most enriablo position, and as a
Democrat 'ho is.an honor to-our good old Com-
monwealth. His appointment. by Got. Biolib
baa given universal satisfaction amongst the
Democracy, and has met the approbation of good
men of ati parties; We think- the State Central
Committee might issae ashort Address, (after a
Tall-expression *om the Democratic press of the
State on theuubjeot,) recommending that the
, -Democracy consider Judge Woodwaed as their
candidate without the action of a formal Con
vention. What say our brethren of the.press to
this?
HOMESTEAD BILL PASSED.
. .We learn from the Washington City papers of
Thursday, that the Homestead Bill passed the
- House of - Representatives on Wednesday, by a
■ vote of.yeas 107, nays 66—or a majority of 51 in
favor of the measure. • The bill, has been tho-
discussed daring the session, and was
passed after a foil expression, was hod in regard
to its merits.
• The bill declares that any person who is the
- v head-of a family and a citizen of the United
States prior to January, 1852, shall bo entitled
to enter, free of cost, one quarter section of vn
/ cant and unappropriated public lands, or a quaa
■ tity equal thereto, to be located in a body, in
.conformity with the legal sub-division of the
' ; . public lands, and after the same shall have been
surveyed; Personsapplyingforthebcnciitofthis
; aoV-shall make affidavit before the Begister of
tbb Band Offioe that they are tbe heads of fami
lies, and .are not the owners of any other real
- 'estatrat tho time of snchapplication. . This will
entitle them to enter* at once the quantity of
land specified. Forthermororitis provided that
if the person filing the* affidavit shall.chango his
or her residence, or abtindon 1 tho -entry for more
than six months at any time within five years,
thon the land shall revert back to the Govern
ment. '
. In speaking of-the passage of the Homestead
- -Will,;the Washington" Union pays the following
just' compliment to our friend Dawson, of Fay
ette county:
- “ The debate wss opened on tbo 8d of March,
* 1862, by the Hon. John B. Dawson, of Pcunsyl
■■■■;. vonta, to whose exertions, next to thoso of the
author of tho bill,- (Mr. Johnson, of Tennessee,)
the friends of the measure will always look back
: with pleasure; '. That speech evinced great re
search, was printed in the Union, and we observe
has.been extensively circulated and reprinted.
It3o tho foundation for acharocterin whioh Mr.
.; - Dawson,who Isin young member, (thisbeinghis
first session in Congress,) may bmld with safety
hereafter; for the people of this country willnot
soon forget. those who have been notivo in for-
Warding a measure so important as the home
stead bill.” -
V . S. SENATORS.
The Hon. Isaac Torcxs has been elected a
member of the U. S. Senate from . tho State of
Connecticut for the term which, expires on the
3d of March, 1867. Gov. Tancey will be an or
nament to the Senate. , Governor Msisshaa ap
pointed tho Hon. W. F. Jte Sacsscoe, a Senator
the State of Sooth Carolina, to fill the on
expirod term of the Hon. H. B. BnxM, resigned.
The report of tho appointment of Hon. J. P.

Legislature from Fayette county,, .states that it
is the intention ofthe company to order, as soon
as.theircorpß of engineers can bo spared for that

ALL. RIGHT t
Wo lately published, from the Philadelphia
North American, a synopsis of the general appro

are now rejoiced to have it in our power to state,
however, that suoh is hot the case. The Hnrris

official appropriation Act In fall,-signed by the
Speaker of the House of Representatives; and

Horrible Accident on tile Michigan Ccn-
Irak Railroad.—Seven Elves Xost,
We are indebted to Mr; Wood, of Chicago, for
the details of a most horrible accident on the
Michigan Central Railroad, which happened on
Tuesday, about noon. -The; second class train
proceeding west, bad Btoppcd at Niles. In n
few minutes a freight train came in under fall
headway, and ran into the passenger train and
with a forco sufficient to cut down and totally
demolished four cars, scattering tho. passengers
in ail directions, Sovcn wevo killed and ninety
wounded, thirty so badly that many of them
must die. : . ;
The narrator ..describes it is one of the most
awfhl and heart reading sights man ever beheld.
Arms, legs and ribs were broken, and the mass
of human beings were mutilated in every possi
ble manner. It is altogether one of tlie most
fearful railroad accidents of which we have ever
heard. In addition ■to the mclanoholy loss ;f
life, the-damage to property must bo very great,
and certainly the reputation of the rood must
sutler by the cansality.
Who is to blame, wo, of course, do not know,
but there must be negligence eomewherO. The
engineer and fireman, who were saved by jump
ing from the train, havo been arrested and im
prisoned In Niles, and it is said tho inhabitants
are determined to have their conduct rigidly in
vestigated. Wo hope if there is guiltjfrom care*
lessness or design, the offending parties will be
punished to the full extent of tho law. When
we obtain further particulars we shall lay them
before our readers. —Cleveland Plain Dealer of
Friday.

respondent of the. St. Louis Intelligencer, writ
ing fromßome on the 20th of March, notes the
creation of four Cardinals, and says:—
11 To settle tho matter about. Bishop Hughes,
I may say here that I learn from several sources
that the Pope has said lie should appoint none
for the United Stateß hat a native American,
and that tho honor was properly dne to Mary
.land, as the State was settled by Bomon Catho
lics. There is no talk; at present,:of matting an

It is built in the form of a cresont,. and: inter
sected in almost every street by canals, their
banks being planted with rows, of beantifnl trees.
Tho city is not surrounded* as most eastern ci
ties. are, by a wall, hat hits'll strong'castlo to de
fend it. The riverTongag, waters it, and sap
plies the castle ditch ; and, being 7, divided into
five streams, Jias a bridge over each,
The public buildings are on a magnificent
scale. The imperial palace is formed by three
cinctures, or circular piles of buildings, and en
closing many streets, coarts, apartments, pavil
ions, gates, guard-houses, draw bridges, gar
dens, conalß, &c. In it resides the emperor and
his family, tho royal domestic, tributary princes
and their rclinue3, the ministers of state, many
other officers of government, and a strong gar
rison. The walls of tins magnificent palace are
built of freestone, without cement, and the
stones ore prodigiously large.: The whole pile
was originally covered with guijit tiles, which
gave it a very grand and beautiful appearance.
Many of the stately apartments are formed and
altered at pleasure, by moveable screens. . The.
principal apartments are tho ■ Hall of Attend
ance, the Council Chamber, Hall of a Thousand
Mats, &o. Thocityis under therulo of two
governors, who rule a year each.
Tho next largest city is Menco. It is also a
royal city, and is situated on a lake near the
middle of the island of Kiphon, and sarronnded
by mountains, which give a remarkable and do-,
lightfal prospect to tbo wholo. Tho circumja
cent country between the city and tbo mountains
is covered with temples, sopnlehres, &0., and is
embellished with a variety: of orchards, groves,
cascades, and purling streams. Thrco considera
ble rivers water this fertile plain, and unite
their streams in the centre of the city, where a
magnificent stone bridgo facilitates the commu
nication botween tho different ports of the city.
A strong castle defends the town. It is GOO yards,
in length, has a towor in the centre, and is sur
rounded by two ditches, the one dry, the other
fall of water. This splendid city is twenty miles
long and nine wide within the suburbs, which
are as well populated as the city.: The number
of tbo inhabitants of tbo city proper is supposed
to bo 520,000. Tho universities, colleges, tem
ples, &0., are almost incredible in number and
magnificence; It contains twelve capital or
principal streets, in tho centre of which are the
royal pnlaces, superbly built of marble, covered
with gardens, orchards.. pavillions,. terrepines
grapes, &c.
The next principal town in Ozcaco. It is
deemed the chief seaport, is very populous, and
has an army of 80,000 men always ready at the
pisposal and command of the emperor. It Is
near fifteen miles in circumference.
Almost the first accomplishment learned by
tho Japanese is the art and grace of suicide.
Tho child in the : nursery stabs itself with its:
finger or a stick, and falls back in imitative
death; tho lover cats out his intestines before
his obdurate mistress, and tbe latter pours out
her hearts blood in tho face of her faithless
lover; the criminal executes himself; and, in
fact the whole nation, from early youth, revels in
the luxury of suicide.
The mechanics and manufactures in Japan
excel in their different branches and are even
liir superior to tho Chinese. Their silks and
cottons are excellent, aqd their Japan wore and
and porcelain unequalled. Their exports are
raw and manufactured silkß, iron, Bteol, artifi
cial metals, fars, teas, finer than the Chinese,
Japan ware, geld, silver, copper, gums, medici
nal herbs, roots; diamonds, pearls, coral, shells,
amborgris, &c. Whatever goods tho Japanese
want they pay for in gold and silver. .
The Japanese worship principally two gods,
Xaoa and Amido. At Meaoo.there is a stately
temple built to one of these gods. It is of
freestone, as large as St. Paul’s with on. arched
roof, supporton by heavy pillars, in which
stands an .idol of copper, which reaches as high
as the roof; and, according to a description
given by Sir Thomas Herbert, his chair Ib seven
ty feet high, and eighty foot long ; the head is
big enough to hold fiftoon men, and tho thumb
forty inches in circumfcronco. There is anoth
er statue, called after (ho god Dabio, made of
copper, twenty-two feet high in a sittingpost
ure. This shows that the Japanese understand
the art of working in bronzo; and thoy are far
ahead of Christian nations in this particular.—
They allow polygamy, and they often strangle
their female children, but never the males.—
The nobility extract the two front ieeth, and
supply them with two in gold.
B@wNo man. of senso will ever allow himself
to fall into dolors , at any disappointment to life.

«I El PORT ANT TO THE LADIES.”
fl-ps HAVING noticed the above Card in the Morn-
IkJ tng Post, of the 14th instant, we, the undersign-:
ed. Vestrymen of St. Pant's Church, (LaeeyviUe,) deem
It important to the Ladies, that they should -be made
acquainted with certain facts, before making purchases.
In the first place, we might state, (hut, in the summer
of lßdl, the vestry and members of St Patti’s church,
(Laceyvillej/coniemplated the erectioaof a new bail
ding, larger, and more convenient for the Congrega
tion, than the present strecturo.. The vestry and others
were making efforts to obtain the means to, erect the
new building; and the Ladieaof the Congregation,with
a determined spirit, concluded to raise sufficient means
to decorate ana furnish the new church, when built.
' With thtsobjectln view,anorgantx&uonwnsframed,
‘•The Ladies' Association ol St. Paul’s Cburch, (Epis
copal,)’’and. Mrs.Goshorn, wile ,of the (then) Pastor,

Sarah Arthurs, Treasurer. This association hail regu
lar meetings, and by extreme ii dastry, were able to
hold a fadhuav fair, on the 22d and 23d days of Decem
ber; ISSI. -Mr. Goshorn, as the printing committee, had
various noticesof.saia Fair.fubltshed in the daily pa
pers; and,ln those notices,the punlia were informed of
the object of IheFalr—vtx I for the benefit or St Tadl'a
charclt, (Episcopal.) The tickets,-also, printed under
the direction of the-President, and Mr..Goshorn, set
forth, that the “ festival’and sale" was for St. Paul’s
Chuich, (Episcopal-) , - ,
Tbe-proeeeds oh this Fair amounted to $517,00, which,
by are solution of the Society, was banded overto the
vestry, or. the .church, in -its - corporate capacity; to be
loaacd on Real Estate security, until sachilmeas it could

jointly and severally that it sbould be n<ed.fotno otber
purpose. This resolution, and the resolution to be adop
ted by the vestry, was drawn up by the President of
the association, and her husband, ana the latter resolu
tion was presented by Mr. Goshorn, to the vestry, for
their approval, which was ndopted by them, and record-,
ed on the minutes of the church;-
. The resolution ofiho Ladies’Association was ne*
composted wiib a recommendation to loan the money
to:a certain individual, on certain security,'(who then
held, and still holds the stone,) the church being in. the
possession ofbisdr&fts, only, for the amount
After said Fair, a calculation was made by the.Presi*
dent of the Association* ot the amount and value o! the
goods remaining unsold, which atnouoted to abouts2so
it is these goods which are* advertised in the card
copied above; as far sale at Mr. Hodkinson’t, N0.,Ul
Wylie street.
At *'mee?ingof the Society,after the Fair, at the sag*
gesiionof the President, Mrs.Goshorn.ir was conclu
ded upon m hold no more-meetings; until afteT the busy
spring season, when their efforts shouldbe comimied.
Accordingly on the 21 st day of April last, a call, sign

was presented to Mrs. Both well, Sr by, with a request
to nodfy;«U the members of tbe Associanen cf.eaid
