the news.
The Democrats beat the Know Nothlogs in
Hanford, Conn., by a large majority.
A resolution has passed the Senate, in Massa
chusetts, declaring that no foreigner is eligible
to office.
The lowa election, which has just taken place,
hca resulted in the eleotion of all the Whig can
didates for State officers, by larger msjoritios
ban in August last. In Wisconsin also, Judge
Cola, the Whig candidate, has been eleoted to
the Supreme Bench.
In the House of Representatives oa Monday
evening, a supplement to the Ten Hoar Law was
passed by a vote of 58 yeas to 15 nays. The
first section provides that, hereafter, no male or
female operative under 21 years of age shall,
under any contract, be employed in any cotton,
woolen, silk, flax, bagging, or paper manufac
tory, for a longer period than ten hoars in any
one day, or sixty hours in ono week. An amend
ment, permitting the parents of children under
21 years of age to make contracts for them to
Work more hours than ten. was debated and lost.
NEATNESS.
Hardly anything can be named that contrib
utes more to human happiness than neatness.
It is one of the distinguishing characteristics of
civilization; and is an infallible Bign of refine
ment, industry, good taste, and good sense. It
is indeed a moral virtue, founded in a proper
regard for public opinion, and a desire to make
those around ns pleased and happy. No mao
ever entered the dwelling of the neat and tidy
housewife without experiencing an emotion ol
ample that is most salutary in its influence.
Bat it is not the housewife alone who i 9 called
on to practice this virtno of neatness. The bus
b&ndman can do as much as the wife to make
h e residence a happy home for bis children, and
& pleasure and a pattern for his neighborhood.
Sv6*y man should have his hoaso painted; bis
door yard and fences in good order; trees and
flowers planted about his dwelling; bis lanes
shaded by trees; his fields free from bushes;
his outhoases neat and tidy; and everything in
its place. It would cost very little to do all this.
A few leisaro hours of oach week for a few years
would plant tho shade trees, the fruit trees, the
flower beds; paint the house, build the fences,
and adorn and make happy every homestead in
the land. However small the farm; however
humble the cottage, flowers, frait and ehado
trees, tidy fences, and a general air of neatness
may soon be thrown aroond it. The labor and
expense will be trifliog, the improvement gradua*
and the result most pleasing. Tho moral effects
of snob cheap improvements are of great value.
The wife and children are more contented and
happy; their tastes are refined and cultivated ;
and their hearts will respond to the song, “ There
is no plaoo like home.” Iq nine caseß out of
ten, the children reared in snob a home will bo
more intelligent, their manners more pleasing,
and their characters more moral and virtuous
than the children of tho slovenly. As they grow
np and go forth into the world, wherever they
may wander, thoy will never forget such a home ;
and seldom fail to imitate suoh an example of
their parents. A pleasant and happy childhood
generally produces a virtuous and useful man
hood. Every emotion of pleasure improves the
heart; and how many such emotions must the
child experience who is reared amid tho flowers,
the fruit and shade trees, and the decorations of
a neat and tastefat homo.
Bat the moral effects of neatness are not its
only benefit. It contributes more to health than
all the drugs and medioines in the world. An
nndrained swamp or filthy stables or barn yards
In the vicinity of dwellings engender malaria
that cannot fail to Injure health, however im
perceptible it may bo for a time*. Unwholesome
food, or food oarolessly oooked, injures health.
The floors of bed rooms covered with dosty car
pets injure health. Frequent bathing, oloan
clothes and clean beds are as essential to health
a 3 pure air; and will preserve health better
than all doctors’ prescriptions. It is well known
that the oountry is much more healthy than the
oity. No amount of labor or expense can se
cure as neat a residence in the oity as in the
country. The smoky atmosphere, the filth
about warehouses, slaughter-houses, work-shops,
vaults, and numerous other souroes of filth can
not fail to poison the atmosphere, and injure
health ; and henoe it is that we are told, con
stant aooessions of bone and sinew, and healthy
people from the oountry are needed to keep np
the population of oities. Add to these usual
onsea of impure air in cities what Pittsburgh
can usually boast of:—muddy or dußty streetp,
with hogs rooting in the gutters ; a deoßo cloud
af smoke pervading the atmosphere ; numerous
pools of water on vacant lots; and a tunnel un
der onr hills filled with tho accumulated filth of
tweity years, and the only wonder is that our
city is not oftener visited by the pestilence,
cholera and general disease.
While we wonld recommend individual neat
nets for ite valuable tffeots upon health, taste,
and the moral nature, it is equally a dnty of
the public authorities of cities. It is a duty
■ally neglected in our oily, and undoubtedly
that neglect is iojurious to the general health,
and pnblio prosperity.
WSf Attention is invited to the advertisement
of Dr. Morse’s Invigorating Cordial. This cor
dial has-beoorne well known and very popular
throughout the whole oountry.

THE LIBEL SUIT OF THE LEDGER*
The proprietors of the Philadelphia Ledger
were sued for a libel. It was tried lately, and
a verdict of rendered against them. The
object of the jury in giving such a verdict seems
to have been-to prevent the press from discus"
sing the causoß of railroad accidents. .The only
object any newspaper can have in charging
blame on the employees of railroad companies
is to promote the safety of the traveling public
by urging mere care and caution upon those em
ployed. The Ledger, in its article for which it
was sued, evidently had no other deeiga. It
blamed the conduct of a man employed by a
company, and stated facts to show that bis fault
• paused a serious accident. The Company, it
seems, discharged tho man from its service im
mediately, which would be some evidence of his
fault. Yet ho sues the Ledger , and a jury gives
him $2,000. V
APRIL 12
So far as we have learned the facts of the
oase, tho verdict seems to us a perfect absurdity.
The superintendent made a report, after an in
vestigation ; and from that report the ledger
derived tho facts it stated. If is a libel,
the press should say no more about railroad ao
cidents, if deaths by such accidents become
daily occurrences.
The Election in Kansas—" Pipe Lavi.no”
on a Large Scale. —From all tho acoouuts re
ceived It appears the election of a pro slavery
legislature in Kauaas territory was only carried
through fraud and violeDoe. Governor Reeder
gave timely notice that none would be entitled
to vote but those who come into the territory
with the intention of making it a permanent re
: sidence ; yet, notwithstanding this, thousands ot
Missourians marched into the election precincts,
deposited their votes, and then marched back
agaiD. This popular sovereignty “over the left,”
i 9 not relished by the citizens of Kansas, who are
said to be largely opposed to the institution ol
slavery ; and the Governor has declared he wii
not grant certificates of election to persom
chosen in suoh flagrant violation of law. IV.
hope he will remaiD firm in his determination ,
for “popular sovereignty ” woald indeed bo s
mockery, if bands of ruffians cau tbu3 defeat
the will of tho resident voters. But howevir
much tho evil is to be deplored at present, do ap
prehension need be felt for the future. All ac
counts—evon thoeo from a free soil source—
represent that by next year a sufficiently larg*
number of emigrants will have arrived from thi
Northern States to prevent the re-enactment ot
snch scenes. Kansas will be a free State. Mark
the prediction.
Theological Students — ln the several Theo
logical Seminaries connected with the Old School
Presbyterian Church there are two hundred ai d
eighty-three theological students at present,
divided among the establishments thus : at Al
legheny, Pa, 61; at Princeton, N. J., 115; at
Union Seminary, Va., 29; at Columbia, S.C.,
32; at New Albauy, Ind.. 19; at D inville, Ky.,
87. Besides these there are kuown to bo at leaßt
four others studying theology uuder private in
struction, and probably from twelve to fifteen
more, thus making the total about three hun
dred, bo that the annual supply of ministers in
that church for tho next tbrpo years will be
about one hundred. 'This the Home and Fotfiyn
Record thinks insufficient, as there is an annual
increase of ninety in toe number of churches,
all to be supplied with ministers, in addition to
the filling of abbut forty vacancies occasioned
by death every year.
g>gy» An exchange paper from Alton, Illinois,
says that in that part of Illinois, and in many
of the neighboring counties of Missouri, there
are not potatoes enough left for need for this
year’s planting ; nor have tbo farmers the
means to buy potatoes enough for seed, at
the high price they bear. A greui.y reduced
potato crop throughout a largo portion of the
West is predicted as a consequence. This
should induce farmers who have seed, or can
purchase it, to plant wide potato fields.
fogr By an advertisement in anoticr column,
it will be seen that the CaoncHsvilio Railroad
Company are prepared to put under contract all
that part of their road between Turtle Creek and
West Newton. Contractors have a chance of
employment there.
We would call attention to the card of
William lluuter, flour dealer. He U extensively
engaged in the business, and eclls at wholesale
and retail. Wo have tried his flour several
times, and always get a good article.
Plated Veal — " Plated veal” was described
by George Pessinger, witness iu the case of
John Jenkins, hauled up at New Vork, and fined
ten dollars for selling the same. Mr. Pcsaia
ger’s testimony is curious ami interesting:
“ I mean by plated veal putting a pieco of fat
pork where the kidney ought to be ; if the whole
of these nine quarters were tried out, after tak
ing away tbo pork, enough fat could not bo got
out to groase a jack knife; butchers cal this
‘bob veal.’ I have been a butcher for forty
years ; I consider this meat very unwholesome;
it was very youog, and had been starved either
hero or while it was being brought hero. Pcs
singer asked accused if bo knew whether tbo
moat in question was veol or dog meat. Jen
kins did not know, but supposed it must be veal,
as he bought it for that. Pessinger—This comes
from licensing men to sell meat that know noth
ing about it. I can produce a woman in Wil
Hamsburgh that cooked steaks cut from tho
thigh of tho pirate Gibbs, who was hung, and
people ate and pronounced tbem'thc finest they
over ate, being under the impression that it was
tho flesh of an animal.
Haebisddg, April 9 — The bill providing for
the Bale of the main lmo of the public .works has
oooupied the attention of the House of Represen
tatives, in committee of the whole, for several
days. The bill was put through oommittco this
morning. It will be reprinted and come np on
second reading for consideration. The bill which
passed committee is an entire substitute for the
bill originally introduced. Tbo minimum of
seven millions was increased to eight miliions by
the informal vote taken in committee. Whether
this will be the minimum finally fixed by the
seven millions, cannot bo certainly determined
antil ft vote is taken on second reading, wh<*n
the yeas and nays can be called. The bill in its
present form contains a sliding scale of prices
and credits, so oonstructeu that the purchaser at
tbo highest price would have to pay down the
smallest sum and receive the moot extended
oredit. If the works arc said for $8,600,000,
then the purchaser thall pay twenty per centum
of the purchase money withia ninety days, and
the remainder in ten equal aunual instalments,
with interest. If they are sold for nine millions,
the purchaser shall not bo required to make any
payments, except interest, until aftor the expi
ration of five years, and then pay in ten equal
annual instalments. If they are sold for Dine
and a half millions the time for payment is ex
tended to ten years, after which to be paid in ten
equal annual instalments. If sold for ton mil
lions, the time is extended to fifteen yodrs ; and
if for ten and a half millions, to twenty years,
upon the conditions above specified. The pur
chase money is to be secured to tbe State by the
bonds of the purchasers, which shall be a lien
upon the works.
By a telegraphic despatch from Pittsburgh,
we learn that our townsman, Mr. Jno. S. Riddle,
died in that city yesterday, at eleven o’clock.
Though the long and severe illness of Mr. Rid
dle had prepared his friends for this melancholy
event, its announcement has caused, among nu
merous circles in this community, sinoere sor
row. He was a man of superior information on
roost subjects of public oonoern, and so long as
his health permitted, he took a large interest in
public affairs; and in social life he was greatly
esteemed for his amiable disposition and his
singularly winning manners. Though a martyr
to disease in some of its most oruel forms, Mr.
Riddle maintained a surprising equanimity of
temper, and his genial and instructive conversa
tion, and the comely grace of his deportment,
will long be gratefally remembered by those
who enjoyed the pleasure of his intercourse.

MM;4=R
Spain and Uncle Sam •-•Prospect of a
Washington, Monday, April 9. j
The President really has determined to make .
a demonstration against Spain at last. The
selection cf Commodore M’Cauley to command
the Gulf Squadron is sufficient, and the rumors'
of an increase r of the Equadron, which I gave
you some time since, arc all confirmed. As
stroog a naval force as can be spared for tho I
purpose has been ordered to cruize in the neigh- ■
borbood of Cuba, in tho track of our steamers,
and future insults to our flag seem likely to be
promptly redressed. Captain General Concha
is much frightened about tho El Dorado affair,
and makes all the apologies in his power. The
President has taken very decided ground in that
matter, and assumed the reBponeibiU.y of carry
ing out his own views of the measures proper to
be adopted:. These, you may rest assured, ore
vigorous and extreme. It seems that not only
the El Dorado and the Daniel Webster have beon
brought to on the high seas by Spanish oruisors
within tho last month or two, but tho Illinois,
also, was served the same way not long ago.
She did not report the fact, however.—each out
rages, without atonement, having become too
common to be deemed, in tho estimation of her
officers, worthy of notice.
There will be trouble with Spain soon, unlese,
with the usual pusillanimity of insolent imbecili
ty, she tumblesjto her knees at the first exhibi
tion of spirit part of the Uuited States.
Prompt atonement will doubtless now bo rai:d?
for tho outrages upon the El Dorado and lbs
Daniel Webster. But they will be repeated,
doubtless, in tho cases of other vessels. Tbo
Spanish Naval Commanders, rejoicing in this op
portunity of indulging their hatred of los Yan
kees, will doubtless insist that they cannot per
form their duty without firing a shot at our
passing ete 'Biers, and pursuing tbtir insultiug
search. They will probably, therefore, quite
liuregard Concha’s frightened exhortations to
greater propriety ; but tho next time a Spanish
jruiser brings to one of our mail steamers on
he high sea?, it is intended that a United States
*ar vessel shall be near enough to participate in
he entertainment by pouring tier broadside into
ho Spaniard forthwith. Mark the truih of this
The instructions to McCauley will confirm what
t say wheuever theyaro madq public. Such a
iemonstr3tion will make an issue not to be evad
ed ; and wc shall theu learn the true character
it the secret protectorate of Spain maintained
»y England and Franco. What a capitat priva
ecr fleet our Cuhan Filibusters would fit out in
he event r.f a war with Spain arising oat cf
these events.
What is a Ton Weight T—The Supreme Court
of Pennsylvania recently decided, that accord
ing to the laws of this State a ton weight con
sisted of 2000 Itn., and that a greater number of
pounds could not be legally exacted in purchas
ing a toD of coal, notwithstanding the custom of
giving 2,2*40 in one part of the Stale, and 2,26 S
in another. The United States D.strict Court
yesterday decided in a suit in admiralty, that
the legal weight of a ton of coal is 2 240 lbs ,
and that tbo coal dealers have no more right to
give less, than grocers would have to give lees
than sixteen ounces to the pound. As tho Con
stitution cf the United States gives to Congress
the power to "fix tho standard cf weights aod
measures,” we suppose that the act of 1834,
passed by the Assembly in Pennsylvania, must
yield to the higher authority, and all the laws of
this State preecril ing the size of the yard mea
sure, the cubic contents of a bushel and of a
g-tllon, are null and void where they differ from
the United States standard. If this be the case,
<he Sealer t f Wrights and Measures and ether
anulagou? offices in the are co
urtly useless uod illegal. Tho State laws will
doubtless bo made to conform to tho‘United
States laws ia thos* 1 points where they now differ.

A GREAT MEDICINE FOR FEMALES.
The unparalleled effects of this great restorative in all
complaints Incident to females, mark a new era in the annals
of medicine. Thousands of stimulants have been invented—
thousands of invigoranta concocted —all purporting to be
specified in the various diseases and derangements to which
the delicate formation of woman render her liable.
EVERY WOMAN OF BENBE,
Who suffers from weakness, derangement, nervousness,
tremors, pains in the back, or any other disorder, whether
pecnll&r to her sex, or common to both soxoa—to give the
invigorating Cordial a trial.
MARRIED PERSONS,
Or others, will find this Cordial after they have used a boi
tie or two, a thorough regenerator of the fyetem. In all
directions are to be fbund the happy parents of healthy off
spring, who wonld not have been so but for this extraordi
nary preparation. And It Is equally potent for the many dit
eases for which it is recommended. Thousands of younp
men have been restored by using it, and not In a single in
stance has It failed to benefit them.
PERBONB OF PALE COMPLEXION.
or consumptive habits, are restored by the use of a bottle cr
two to bloom and vigor, changing the skin from a pale, yel
low, sickly color, to a beautiful florid complexion.
These are some of the sad and melancholy effects produ
ced by early habits of youth, vi*: weakness of the back
and limbs, pains in the head, dimness of sight, losa’of mns
eular power, palpitation of the heart, dyspepsia, nervous
irritability, derangement of the digestive function®, general
debility, symptoms of consumptions, etc.
Mentally, the fearful effects on the mind are much to be
dreaded. Loss of memory, confusion of ideas, depression
of spirits, evil forebodings, aversion to society, self-distrust
love of solitude, timidity, etc, are aomeol the evils produ
ced. - All thus afflicted
BEFORE CONTEMPLATING MARRIAGE
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the most ne
cessary requisites to promote connubial happiness; indeed,
without these, the journey through life becomes a weary
pilgrimage—the prospect hourly darkens the view; the
mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with the
melancholy reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with your own.
Dr. Morse's Invigorating Oordial has been counterfeited
by some unprincipled persons.
In future, all the genuine Cordial will have the proprie
tor’s facsimile pasted over the cork of each bottle, and the
