Pursuant to notice, a meeting of tho Demo cratic County Committee of Correspondence was held in tho office of the Morning Post on Satur day, May 22, 1852. After: a full and fair, expression of opinion from Ae members present, the following resolu tion, offered by M. C. Milligan, was adopted: Resolved, That the Democratic citizens of the different Townships, Boroughs and Words, in Allegheny connty, be requested to meet on Sa turday, tho 19th of June, at their usual places of meeting, to select delegates to represent them in the County Convention, to be held on Wednes day following, (Juno 23d,) at 11 o’clock, A.

HAMILTON, Cli n. L. llabpkb, See'y. THE CROPS. Although wo are on the eve of a warn politi cal campaign, yet we shall by no means neglect Other interests. The farmer, especially, will find the. .Post‘quite as interesting as heretofore. Wo aro rejoiced to know that tho prospects through oat tho country for bountiful harvests were never more flattering than they are the - present season. Daring tho last few weeks, we have been in various portions of Western Penn sylvania and Ohio, and, so far as we couldjadge, the crops looked very promising. Tho Armstrong Democrat of the 2diost. says: “Tho prospect for a plentiful crop of fruit and grainin this county was never better thanit is at the present time. For 6ome years past, the plnmh frees have nearly all failed in this borough, but now they give promiso of a largo yield of fruit. The.farmers anticipate a fine grain crop, with tho exception of oats, the wet weather pre ■ venting a full oropjbclng put in.” Tho Wooster (Ohio) Democrat says that “ the ' prospect for an immcnsocrop of wheatin Wayne connty is unprecedented. The wheat is luxriant beyond anything we ever saw in that connty, and ont ofthe way of oil donger of blight, save from rustßyo and oats look well—corn backward— much replanting." The Guernsey (Ohio) Times says, “the wet weather has been unfavorable to corn, and mnch has yet to be planted. A good deal of that sown has'rotted; the wheat crop most promising; grass crop fine. Frnit—apples, plums, cherries, quin ces—will ho abundant; peaches scarce. The season promises a rich yield.” The M’Connelsville (Morgan co., 0.,) Chroni de says: “The prospect for a good crop of op ples.in this connty is very flattering. We also leant that our neighbors of Washington connty will have'a full supply of this frnit the present .■ year.” ■ The Bucyrus (Crawford county, 0.,) Forum of the :14th nit. says: “ from present appearances, we ore going to have an abundant supply of np ples this season. The trees are very fall of blos soms. The cherry and plam trees bid fair fora luxuriant yield. Peaches are all killed.” Vie learn that the prospect for an abundant crop of apples was never better in Franklin co., Ohio, Of cherries, there will be a medium crop. Peaches will bo scarco,- and, of course, in de mand.. Tile Galveston (Texas} Journal of the 13th nit, says : A friend of oars, just returned from the ' Brazos, informs us that' Ihcre.never was a better promise ,of a large cane' crop. The cotton, al though retarded by the late cold weather, has - recovered,'and ■ generally bids. fair to be large. - The corn, though salfering some from tho drouth, Is in a forward condition. The prospeot for large crops was never better in that seotion of tho country.” TheMobilo IWiune says: « Although the late frost this spring caused some injury to the wheat crop .of South Alabama, wo are glad to learn’that thoyicld will be generally satisfactory, both ns to quality and quantity.” t&&“ The Trumbull Democrat, published at Warren, Ohio, by our old friend J. B. Buttles, has enlarged its borders and made its appearance in a new and beautiful dress. It is now one of the handsomest and best papers in tho Buckeye State. ■■ A ridiculous despatch was received at Baltimore on Saturday evening, and posted on the bulletin board of the Patriot, announcing that Pierce declines the nomination. It caused considerable excitement. Of conrso it was a hoax. Samuel Barker wits killed by lightning Inhlontgomery county, Pa., on Thursday lost. James McLenny was also killed by lightning in Sampson county, N.: C., on the 27th ult. They were both in a field at work at tho time. Our excellent friend Charles ®. Behas, of Strnttqnville, h Clarion county, has been ap pointed; an Aid-de-Comp to the Governor with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Hon. George W. Thompson, of Wheel ing, at present amembor of Tin« been chosen Judge of. the VFheellng Judicial; District, by a majority of nearly 2,000. The Commercial Journal haß Stmok out A new lead in the way of enterprise whioh should entitle it to the appelation of the “enterprising journal” of-onr city: some time since, were in favor of Scott, ;aud no* body else. But since the. nominbtion -of Geu. Pierco; he seems to havo . modified, his ardor ~ in. favor of his whig preference, -and now has a. :::3UNE 10. strong leaning to tho demoerntio candidate. - He - appears to have; resolved i to make his : paper every alternate day a Pierce and then nn.anti- Pierco organ. One day he will set Gen. P. up with a very complimentary notice, and the next day endeavors to knock him down by a lick back. The faot iB, the editor doOB not know what to say against the domooratio: candidate. When he feels inclined to speak- the honest feelings of his heart, be cannot refrain, from referring to him in: courteous terms, but when ho thinks of tho fealty ho owes to the whig party, ho is forced to use tho slang whioh the enthusiastic members of his party consider strong against theiropponents. His honest feolings appear to bowith the democrats, bat his long and perverse adhesion- to whiggery., induces- him to alternate between tho two. Monday was the democratic dsy with tho Journal, and he complimented our nominee in the most: laudatory language. On Tuesday, however,liistemper was whig, and ho snarled and sneered in a manner whioh was no doubt pleasant . to his party rcadofs; But yes terday he was under the , democratic influence again, and lie published two mortal columns of good democratic matter. Wo love to see this on the part of tho editor of tho Journal. Wo know him to have been a most incorrigablo po litical sinner; bat his present course, not only on our national hut his own connty tioket, gives, us hope that the grace of repentanao has reach ed lus heart, and it is a cheering indication that hB will cro long embrace the true faith, and abandon tho errors he has practiced so long. We have, also, a slight—but Very Blight—hope of his coadjutor of tho Gazette. We obsorvo ho is becoming as mild as a sacking dove, on tho Presidential question, and has, comparatively, little to say about the enormities of tho “locofo- C 03.” Ho is equally quiet on the county tioket. What docs all this mean? Wc do not wonder so mnch at the amiable temper of the Journal, for it is a “non-resistant,” bat the Quakerish con duct of .the “billicose Gazelle,” whioh once re solved to“fight on, fight ever,” surprises us ex tremely. However, speculation ns to their pres- ent course will throw no light upon tho Bnbjecl, and wo will have to wait patiently nntil after the lGtb, and then we will bo able to announce the schutc each of our respectable cotemporaries in tend to navigate. In the meantime, we would advise each and both of thorn to write to Mr. Fillmore, make an affectionate, enquiry about tho state of his health, and, also, endeavor to ascertain his prospects for tho nomination. Tub Feeuno.— The Democracy appear to ho thoroughly aroused to action by the nominations by tho Baltimore Convention and aro everywhere receiving the intelligence with a spirit which shows that they will be most enthusiastically Bnpported. : The ringing of bdls, tiring of can non, and shouts and hazzas, are some of the ra ther extravagant symptoms of the joy they ex perience that the difficulty at Baltimore, which threatened their destruction in tho next Presi dential campaign, is so happily and harmonious ly settled. Tho Whig party, it is evident, will have a competitor worthy of their best man, and requiring their most united and determined no tion—Phil.-Ledger. pggn. The above coming from a neutral paper of extensive circulation and wide-spread influ ence, shows clearly that the editors consider the election of Pierce and Kisa as certain. The truth is, wo have never known such enthusiasm in the Democratic ranks ns exists at present.— We have not heard of o single Democrat who Is dissatisfied with, or will oppose the nominations made at 'Baltimore. The Democratio party is now united and invincible, and onr triumph in November will be without a parallel. Thewhigs know this—they feel it; and thoso of them who have been growing fat upon tho spoils of cffice, are beginning to tremble, like Belshazzar, when be beheld the handwriting open tho wall. Their doom is fixed! Gen. Cosihandeb. —Some of the South Caro lina papers are down upon this gentleman for coming to Baltimore as a delegate to the Demo cratic Nationol Convention. Tho Wlnynh Cou rier publishes the nnmes of the forty-seven sign ers to his credentials, and adds, that of tho list, thirty-one where not born in the district —twenty arc not natives of tho ■ State —fifteen aro Whigs— and nine have no right to vote in the district,— Balt. Sun. The impndenco of that same Gen. Com mander exceeds any thing wo have heard of or read of daring oar potitioal life. Hispersevc* ring attempts to represent the State of Soath Carolina in the Democratio National Convention were cool, to say tho least of it. We are truly rejoiced to know that his ridiculous pretentions were not considered for o moment worthy of bo ing:entertained by tho into Convention at Balti more. “Gen. Commander” should stay at his Palmetto home hereafter, and lot the Democracy attend to their own business; far they can cer tainly get along without his assistance in their National Conventions. . USy* We regret to learn from the western pa pers that the cholera is prevailing, to a fearful extent at many points along tho river. The tel egraph of yesterday informed ns that several fatal cases had oocurred at Maysville, (Ky.,) not far below ns, and wo fear it will wend its way to our viciuity. In the small population of Lasalle, Illinois, the disease prevails in an opidemio form. At tho last.advices sixty deaths had occurred, and a general panic prevailed. The inhabitants wero leaving the town inlorgc numbers. These reports should admonish oar city authorities to dean and pnrify overy street and alley of tho ■dty. ■ B@“ The New York Evening Foil, we oro pleased to see, advooates .the election of General Prunes to the Presidency, although tho editor doeß not altogether like the platform adopted at tiio close of the Baltimore Convention. The F'oit eays, in speaking of the nomination:— ! •< Tho testimonials of its popularity thicken upon us. Sir/ Pierce, if alive on the fourth of next Nlarch, will be tho President of the United States. .Tho approbation,: the enthusiasm, the fueling of confidence, with whieh-the Democrats gverywhero receive the news of his nomination, [ffe a sure proof of his success in tho election.” f Itgy Tho - war between some of the journey men printers of Louisville and the publishers of the Courier has bccome-so -worm that they have gone to a court pf justice to settle the difficulty. Wo wonder if this long contest is not pretty ranch like a quarrel about goats wool ? Both parties appear to think: that tho quelling of the Uittle tempest in a tea-pot whioh they have raised i’u the only question whioh excites the. pnhlio blind at present. If it is not settled soon it may interfere with the presidential election and en danger the safety of the Union. ; What is Said at Washington. —The Wash ington correspondent of the Baltimore Daily Himes (neutral) writes: “The ‘Young Hickory bf the Granite Hills’ will awaken'the greatest en thusiasm throughout the whole country. His election is considered a ‘ fixed fact’ by tho De mocracy, and there’ are found bnt few whigs to dispute it I learn that when Gen. Scott heard of . Pierce’s nomination, he remarked that he was the strongest ffian in the Democratic party, and complimented him very highly as a man of abil ity andbravery.” ■ jESt* A German by the namo of Lawrence Spinglo, a member of Capt Almstedt’s artille ry, had both his arms blown off, on Monday, while in the. act of loading a cannon, Jat Lucaß’ grove, St Louis, where they were holding a fes tival.

Messrs, Editors : As tho coming Prosidential contest promises to bo a very cxcitiog one, and one in which all the energies and talents of the opposing parties will be brought Into ploy, I would suggest to the Democratic County Con veatton which is shortly to assemble, tho propri ety of plociog in nomination, for Congress, tho most eloquent and most able expounder and ad vocate of onr principles that tbo district can fur nish. If this course is deemed advisable by tho Con vention, (ho name of the Hon. Charles Sualer will at once suggest itself to that body, and his nomination, I doubt not, would bo unanimous. 1 have no authority for saying that Judge Shalee desires to bo a candidate. I know, how ever, that ho is too high-minded, honorable and Independent, to personally urge his claims ou tho party, and I suppose his acccptanco of the nomination would be attended with great pecu niary loss to himself; still, if the party welfare demands it, I feol assured ho will make the sac rifice. ■ As a public speaker, Judge S haler has no equal, perhaps, in Western Pennsylvania. Stand ing at the head of his profession, ho bos acquired a reputation which is ns extended as it is well deserved. On tho stump he is most powerful; and lam only saying that which most of the whigs will admit, that he can demolish Richey and Howe, along with Andy Stewart and any other half doien they can bring to meet him. Let us, then, nominate him. FIRST WARD Zeniths from Italy and Sicily is tho title of n new work from tho pen of William M. Gould, and published by D. Appleton & Co., Now York.

On the’ morning of his arrival he took a look about the town and not being oveijeycd at the appearance of things was about to abandon his contempla ted project, and so expressed himself to Mr, Tat tle, the proprietor of the Palmer House. Mr. T. told him not to bo nneasy; but this was of no avail, until the landlord, getting his blood up at suoh imputations against the Capital of Indiana, offered him §5O for the profits of the concert. The bargain was quickly closed, and the result was, ntt proceeds, slB3—Mr. Tuttle paying the eoncortizor $5O, and sinking $B3 in his own trousers.

To the Editou op Tire Hf.ralo.—Dear Sir; —ln consequence of some misstatements re garding my escape, which I have jast seen in two or three of tho European papers, and which appear to have been copied from an Australian paper, 1 think it right to set the true facts be fore the American public, to whom, alone 1 now hold myself responsible. The remarkable kindness I have experienced from tho press, and the public generally, ever since my arrival in this noble oountry, and tho anxiety 1 feel to have it understood that 1 am got deficient in tho honorable spirit which quali fies a stronger to become its citizen, compel mo to break the sllonco which no act or word, on the port of my enemies, could disturb. The facts aro these: In the month of April, 1851, I was called up on to renew my parole. I did so in writing, and in the following words:— I heroby pledge my word of honor not to leave tho colony so long as I bold a ticket of leave. I banded this pledge to the police magistrate, in tho open court. Any one can see it who wishes to refer to it. Towards the end of December, the Borne year, I came to the determination of attempting my escape. Accordingly, on tho 3d of January last, I sent tho following letter to the polioo magistrate of the district iu which 1 resi ded:— , Lake Sorell, District op Cajupbell-towh, j Saturday, Jan. 8, 1852. j Sir—Circumstances of a rcoent occurrence urge upon me the necessity of resigning my tick et of leave, and consequently, withdrawing my parole. I write this letter, therefore, respectfully to apprise you that, after twelve o'clock to-mor row noon, I shall no longer consider myself bound by the obligation whioh that parole im poses. In tbe meantime, however, should yon con ceivo it your duty to take me into custody, 1 shall as a matter of coarse, regard myself as wholly absolved from tho restraint which my word of honor to your government at present inflicts. I hove the honor to be, sir, With sincere respect, jour obedient servant, THOMAS FRANCIS MEAGHER. To the Police Magistrate of the District of Camp bell Town. : : The police magistrate received this .lottcr at 11 o’clock the same morning. I remained in my cottage, at lake Sorell, until seven o'clock that evening.A few minutes after that hour, four of my friends arrived on horseback, and communi cated to me the intelligence that tho polico wove coming to arrest me. I went out with him into the bush, and remaned there, : about 800 yards from the cottage, until my servant brought the news that the police had arrived, and were sit ting in the kitchen. We mounted our horses immediately, and rode down to the cottage.— One hundred yards from it my friends drew up. I rode'on until; I came close to tho stable, whioh was within pistol shot of tho . kitchen door. I drew up there, and desired him to go and toll the police I was waiting for them; He left me at once, and entered the cottage. ; Two or,three minutes elapsed j the police ap peared. The moment they appeared I rose in my stirrups, called out to them that I was tho pris oner they camp to arrest, and defied them to do so. This challenge was echoed by my friends with throe hearty cheers, in the midst of which, I struck spars to my horse, and dashed into the woods in the direction of the coast. Accompanied by my generous and Courageous-hearted friends, I reached the sea shore on Monday afternoon, at a point where a hpat was in readiness to receive me. I jumped from my horse, got into the boat, put off to Boa and beat about there for a few dnyß, until the ship, catno.up, which,. thank God ? bore me,.-at' last, to a free and hospitable land. In plain words, these are tho plain facts of the case. As I have written them here, they were written by one of my friends; at the . house where we changed . horses, on our way to the coast. containing them, was forwarded next morning, Tuesday, to the editor of the leading journal of the colony, and bare the names of my friends, written by their own bonds, in attestation of Us truth. The gentle man to whom it wes sent, was instructed to pub lish the names that were attached to it. He was however, at the same time, requested to insert the document itself in the next number of his pa per,and was left nt fall and perfect liberty to show the signatures to any person who might Wish to be satisfied upon the subject, and would pledge his honor not to abuso tho confidence re posed in him, by involving the parties ooncerned in any legal difficulty.

William Roulatt, a well-knownMetbo diet clergymen, residing at Naples, draws the following amusing but apt comparison, between Dr. Al’Lane’s celebrated Vermifuge and a ferret (> A terret, when placed at tbe entrance of a rat bole, enters, the aperture, travels along the passant, seizes upon the rat,exterminates his existence,and draws tne animal’s defunct carcass to the tight. And in like man* ner have I found Dr. M’Lane’s American Vermifuge to operaioon worms, those dreadful and dangerous tormen tors of children. This remedy, like the. ferret, enters the aperture of the mouth, travels down the gullet, hums round the stomach, lays hold *>( the worms, shakes tbe life oatof the reptiles.sweeps cleau therr den,and car ries their carcasses clear out of the system. Tins, at least, has been the effect of the Vcra ifuge upon my children.” A neighbor of Mr. Roulatt, Mr. John Briggs, adopts tbe simile of tbe reverend- certifier, thus both giving their most unequivocal approval ol this great specific, after having witnessed its operation tq>on their own children.
