We would call the attention of MERCHANTS AND
BUSINESS MEN to the fact that we have just received
ftom Philadelphia a number of fonts of new Job Type, and
ate now prepared to fill orders for Cards, Circulars, Bill
Heads, Paper Books, Posters, and Programmes for exhibl.

-George Laweß’ extensive brewery in Pottsville,
Pa., was totally destroyed by tire on Friday
iight. The lobb is s3o,ooo—insured for $lO,OOO.
The death of the Hon. Morris Longstreth, of
Montgomery county, in the fifty*fourth year of
hiß age, is announced in the eastern papers of
last week. He is not tho former oan&l commis
sioner of this State.
Got. Reeder, of Kansas, has arrived in New
York, on his way to visit his family at Easton,
Pa., his late residence. Ho will return with
them in about two months to the theatre of his
public duties. Tho executive head of affairs of
the territory, in tho meantime, is Mr. Woodson,
the Secretary. Gov. Reeder, before his depar
ture, issued a proclamation for an election to be
held on the 22d of May, to fill vacancies that
ocour in Bix or eight districts. Ho also issued
his proclamation to convene the legislature on
the first Monday in July*
Mr. H. E. Laffetra, a member of tho New
Jersey legislature, and one of the signers of the
card addressed to Commodore Vanderbilt on the
snbjeot of tho Presidency, having come out
Stating that he believed the whole thing a hoax,
Mr. Daniel F. Tompkins, another legislator and
also a signer, has written a letter declaring it
was got up in good faith. Mr. Tompkins insists
there is nothing very ludicrous in Vanderbilt’s
claims fo the Presidency, notwithstanding the
press ridicule it as a mere attempt to head off
»< Live Hoax” George Law.
The Baltimore Sun is out in a strong article
denouncing the rascally conduct of the Mis
sourians in invading Kansas, and controlling its
elections by foroo. Wo predicted some days
ago that the South as well as the North would
denounce the outrage, and join heart and hand
in applying a remedy, Tho Sun invokes tho
power of the general government to put an end
to suoh flagrant violations of law, and to main
tain order, and let the people of Kansas decide
upon their own local affairs. The Sun declares
its indifference to the question whether Kansas
shall be a free or a slave State ; bat it sees in the
conduct of the Missourians the seeds of much
evil to the country if not promptly checked aDd
punished.
The Sun is right. Tho lawless men of Platte
county, Missouri, are doiDg more to spread and
intensify the abolition sentiment of tho north
than ony othor event of the last quarter of a cen
tury. Wo are not abolitionists ; but when we
see an audaoious and lawless attempt to extend
slavery by force and fraud, we would have that
attempt sternly punished ; and would never in
the formation of another territory give a chance
for the reoorrence of similar wrongs. Nor
would we ever vote for the admission into tho
Union as a State a territory where slavery had
been established by such means as have so far
been employed in Kansas.
We believe the South generally will condemn
Missourians, and desire no extension of slavery
by such means. Tho people of Platto county
not only forbid settlers from the free Btates from
entering Kansas, but they destroy a printing
press suspected of favoring freedom, and de
nounce Methodist clergymen and that whole
denomination. They will probably drive them
all out of their county. Did they but know it,
they are making abolitionists fast.
The new building of the First Presbyterian
Church, corner of Wood and Sixth streots, iB
nearly completed, and was yesterday dodioated
to the service of God. It is one of the most
substantially built and Bplendid churches in the
State. The interior and wood work waß done
by David M'Clelland, Esq., an old and well
known builder; and for style and good taste,
and solidity and excellence of workmanship, it
can hardly be surpassed. The churoh, we pre
sume, will seat about 1,400 persons, and, while
arranged and adapted to its use, it iB an orna
ment to the city. The churches and sohool
houses of our oity will now compare favorably
with any other city weßt of the mountains for
spaoionsness, stylo of architecture and finish,
and for the wealth, liberality and publio
spirit which they indicate.
To-morrow evening, about ten minutes past
nine, look out for an eolipse of the Moon. It
will last till nearly one o’clock. The Earth gets
between the Sun and Moon, and for about three
hoars the Moon “can’t shine.” The whole of
this eclipse will be visible in South America,
and it can be seen in all the inhabited
parts of North Amerioa, being only partial in
California and Oregon. The laßt total eclipße of
the Moon, visible in this country, occurred on
the 6th of January, 1852. To-morrow night it
begins on the eastern side of the Moon. At
Albany, it begins at nineteen minutes past nine,
is to tab at twenty-three minutes past ten, and
ends at three minutes past one. At Philadel
phia, it begins at fourteen minutes past nine,
total sixteen minutes past ten, and ends throe
minutes before one.
Ths Annual Abolition Satoenatia is this
year at Cincinnati. Very little intorest is
manifested in its proceedings, and not half the
prominent fanatics usually in attendance are
present. We notice Antoinette L. Brown aud
Geo. W. Julian as the two most distinguished
delegates. To show that there is no suoh
thing as degeneracy in the mutual admiration
society, wo will give the speech of W. W. Brown>
a mulatto, formerly a slave in St. Louis:
The speaker said, that upon the passage of
the fugitive slave bill, he was foroed to remove
to England. While there a pecuniary oriels
came upon him, and he was forced to look out
for a means of sustenanoo. Looking over the
papers one day be saw the announcement of
the death of J. C. Calhoun, with a biographical
sketch. He thought he could write a better life
of Calhoun than 1 the one in the paper by a
“blundering Englishman.” He did so, and re
ceived a fair remuneration. In the coarse of
time, the announcement of tho illness of Henry
Clay oame to hand. He sits down and writes
four articles on tho life and death of Henry
Clay, (laughter,) leaving blank Mb age and the
time of his death, because he was not yet dead.
He watched the papers very closely, hoping
daily to receive the intelligence of hie death :
wifi r ‘) for h ' B money was nearly all gone.
““ * aß presented to him in the meantime.
Sir, said he, I would have attended to this mat
tor before this, but have been somewhat disap-
.A 5 ” Bwa . ltin E a draft from America!
Said he, “it was a draft upon the bank of Henrv
Clay.” (Shouts of laughter and applause ) At
last the nows came, Henry Clay was no more
He sent his artioles to the papers. And, said
he, the man who during life had never done to the
amount of one cent for human liberty, I cold, when
dead, for one hundred doUare l (Boars of an

Gov. Reeder and lilt Supporters
Tho following is from tho Northampton
(Masß.) Conner, and We are aßsured the IntelU
genoe it communicates can be depended upon.
General Pomeroy, we presume, is a son of Old
lampshire. For anght we know he is a de.
soendant of the.renowned hero, Coloner Pome,
roy, of Bunker Hill. If so, he is a ohip bf the
APRIL 30.
,d blook:
The Lawrence Herald of Freedom, of April
, th, Bays, it understands that the Governor has
determined to submit the recent contested o'ec
tion oases in this territory to tho Attorney Goa
eral of the United States for his opinion. Tho
same paper says:
■'Wo feel proud of the Governor of Kansas.
He has shown himself to be a true steel during
tho exciting times of last week. The Missourians
waited on him in person, and threatened to hang
him unless ho would give the pro-slavery oandi
datos certificates of election. His reply was:
“ Gentlemen, two or three of you can assassinate
me, but a legion cannot compel me to do that
which my conscience does not approve.” Bnch
a man deserves well of tho country, and the
people of Kansas will not bo slow to do him jus
tice.”
We have seen a private letter from Gen. Sam
uel C. Pomeroy, dated Kansas, Missouri, April
7th, in which the above account of Gov. Reeder
is corroborated. Gen. P. Bays:
*« Governor Reeder has Btood up like a man.
The members ©looted by Missouri votes held a
meeting and voted to go to the Governor and de
mand their certificates; if he refused, then to
request him to resign his office, or they wou.d
shoot him. 1 sent a liqc to tbo Governor to ask
him if be wanted anything in the hour of his
trial. He said ‘it would be grateful to bis feel
ings to know he had Borne one to lean upon.’ I
Bent my horse and buggy that same night with
a line to Dr. Robinson. The next day, twelve
good and true men, with revolvers, &c., stood up
with the Governor. Wo remained two and a half
days—determined to do or die- We had been
insulted, nnd had all our rights trampled upon,
daring tho election, and now determined to sub
mit no longer. At last, the members left amidßt
a storm of wrath and oaths poured out upon tho
Governor and the Emigrants’ Aid Company. The
Governor to-day starts for Washington.”
Tho story about tbc ducking of the editor of
the “Herald of Freedom,” sent on by telegraph
by the filibusters, is incorrect.
Tli© Outrage on the Press In Missouri-*
Tho Newspaper Articles that Caused It.
The Argus, of the 14th inst., published at
Weston, Mo., gives the following extract from
the Parkville Luminary, tho paper which wob
subsequently mobbed and destroyed. This quo
tation seems to have caused tho outrageous pro
ceedings which are matter of history.
THE ELECTION IN KANSAS:
“We have occupied conservative and national
ground, promptly opposing tho measures and
men who have brought on this crisis. Will th ■
President meet it ? Surely he cannot longer fol
low counsels from among Abolitionists and Nul
lifiers? The country demands that sound, firm,
energetic men havo tho direction of public af
fajrB who will impress and enforce jastico and
law. There is virtually no law iu Kansas, and
no security for lifo and property, save in tbe
sense of honor and justioe cherished by every
Tauß pioneer. This mat save tbe country from
bloodshed; but tho Government is held up to
ridicule and contempt, and Us authority disre
garded Judges of elections have been displaced,
and others appointed; the polls have in somein
stances been guarded with pistols and bowis
kmves-and some of those elected are going to the
Governor swearing that, if he does not give a
certificate of election immediately, they will ‘cut
his throat from ear to ear !’ Ib the flag of our
country to bo no longer a protection ?—or are
individuals or companies of men to declare We
will ! and it must bo so, without regard to law ?
Is this what tbe authors of tho Nebraaka-Kan
eas bill meant by Squattrr Sovereignty ?”
Wo aro unable to discover anything dreadful
in the above. If tho editor told tho truth, his
remarks are fair and correct. But the Argus
oomments as follows:
“Citizens of Platto and Missouri, is it true that
you support sad patronize the abolition Dog
Star ? Is it trao that you lot your negroes sub
scribe for and read this lieing sheet ? They say,
“wo have ocoupied conservative and national
ground!” We would ask : What were you doing
when you wrote tbo abolition letter to Brown,
the editor of the Herald of Freedom ? Why have
you been publishing lies and abolition senti
ments, if you occupied neutral ground? Why
have you opposed every measure tbe South has
t&keu to defend herself, and defended every
move of the North to abolitiooize Kntwas ? Why
do’you support and uphold tbe Abolition Gover
nor of Kansas? How dare you tell such a lie
as to say “judges were displaced nud others ap
pointed, and the polls guarded with pistols and
bowie knives,” when it is kaown that a more or
derly and quiet election dcvct was held in any
territory in the Union. Verily, the truth is not
in you.
“As you are sick, we would advise you to move
your office to somo other coantry, where the cli
mate will be more congenial to your health.
“If the people in theueighborhood of Parkvillo
were not the most forbearing individuals in the
world, the materials composing the Luminary
printing office would go into the Missouri river, and
the falsehoods that hod an outlet through its
polluted columns would therefore cease.”
It will be remembered that tho “materials
composing the Luminary printing office ” were
subsequently thrown into the river, as hinted.
The office that most richly deserves a bath in the
Missouri is that of the Argus.
Lumber and Coal. —Tho Legislature at tho
present session has repealed the tonnage tax on
the Central road so far as relates to coal and
lumber. This will enable the road to carry those
two artioles eastward cheaper than heretofore,
and may enoourago the sending of larger quan
tities to the Beaboard markets. We believe this
was Mr. Darsie’s bill, as be has been known to
favor it for some years. It is right. On suoh
heavy articles a tax of three mills per ton per
mile makes a pretty large item, in a trip of about
two hundred miles. But for tho protection that
tax affords to the Main Line of thopublio works
all would be in favor of its total repeal. It is a
tax on oommeroe, and the burden falls mainly
on our own citizens.
Increased School Appropriation— Unneces
sary Tinkering.— The Harrisburg correspond
ent of the Philadelphia Ledger, writing nnder
date of Wednesday last, says :
The House Increased the appropriation for tho
support of Common Sohools to $300,000, and
by a large majority. The sum appropriated
last year and fixed in this bill was $230,000.
Previous to last year, but $200,000 was annually
appropriated. This sum was given frem the
very commencement of the Common School sys
tem, and has remained without any material in
crease, while the system has expanded and de
veloped, and more than doubled its capacity for
good—owing to tho financial embarrassments
undor which the State has labored. An amend
ment was engrafted upon tho seotion which
would have a disastrous effect upon the county
superintendenoy of Common Sohools if it should
become a law It makeß it lawful for the School
Directors in the several counties of the State to
assemble in Convention on the first Monday of
June next, to deoide whether they will oontinne
to employ a County Superintendent; and in
case they deoide not to employ each officer, then
the amount of hie salary to go into the oonn
ty sohool fund. This would cause a oonteet in
most of the oounties in the State, would de
stroy the uniformity of the sohool system, and
would so mutilate it that the balance would
hardly be worth preserving. There is no prob
ability that this seotion will pasß the Senate.
Gone a Coitoting. —By tho following, from the
Colambus State Journal, itwill.be seen the
newspapers are prying into tho bachelor Gover
nor of Ohio’s private affairs:
The Statesman says that “ Gov. Medill is ab
sent from the State on important business of &
personal nature.” Well, well, we do hope she
will come to termß this time. She has led the
old fellow a chase around Robin Hood's barn,
until she haß set every hair in his wig about
crazy. When she gets him tied to her apron
striog, we hope he will come home, settle down,
and behave himself, for he has been runnin ’ a
long, long time. Why don’t he come home
and oall that extra session, according to pro
mise ?
Gently as SnowFlaess. —On Sunday last,
among the contributions at the Church of the
Holy Communion to the funds of St. Lnke’s
Hospital, was a roll of five one thousand dollar
bills. They were dropped so quietly into the
plate that not even the gentleman who received
them knew from whenoe they oame.—AT. T.

At another pointof the journey she tied the pony ( dotlbt9 tl , c tcrorted settlement, believing that
up to a rail by the roadside, and left it standing Conoba hfl(J nQ anthority t 0 treßt .
uncovered for two hours. On returning to her piae , 0 und Cadel embar ked on the 23d for

from her pocket, and strike the pony withtt sev- C onoha iuvited McCauley to a grand banquet,

what might happen retired a few paces, upon aband(med . ■: - .
which Miss Gordon seized the reins with her loft

the pony’s nostrils, and about its mouth.
T-ho blood flowed copiously upon tho Rnow, (
and after the defendant had retired Mayliug
called the attention of his master. Mr. Ilolindcr
to the state of the animal. Mr. Ilolindcr, found
incised wounds in various parts of the body,
some five or six inches in length, and upon the |
back, near tho tail, was a deep stab. This gen- l
tleman felt it his duty to report the case to the
local police, who had, in turn, asked the assist
ance of the society. Miss Gordon, in extenua
tion, declared that her peny being a confirmed
“jib," sho had been told of two cures; the one
was to apply a hot iron to the animal's hocks,
and the other to cut slightly the animal near tho
flank and apply a little turpentine to the wounds.
She admitted she had cut tho pony, and that it
was her intention to have applied some tur
pentine next day. If it was wrong she was sor
ry, and would untortake not to do so again. She
concluded by remarking that she was prepared |
to pay any fine that might bo inflicted upon her. 1
The magistrates left tho court to examine the
pony, which even then, five weeks after the oc
currence, gave evident proofs of tho torture it
had suffered. Fortunately, however, it hal got
a more humane owner, the defendant having
sold it on the 2d of March. The chairman of
the bench, Mr. M. Porter, M. P., after com
menting on tho gross cruelty of which tbo de
fendant had been guilty, ordered her to pay a
fine of £5 and costs, or in default to be commit
ted for one month. The defaudent threw flown
a £lO note, and, receiving the cbiDge, walked
out of tho court in the most unconcerned man
ner.— English Paper.
Mrs. Patterson, a Myth, probably.— A des
patch from Boston, on Saturday, says:

Opinions or tUe Press.
The following Is from Gen. Qeo. P. Morris, in the Home
Journal of Nov. 7, 1846 ;
All editors profess to bo the guardians c f the rights of
the people, and to keep them advised, through their
columns, of whatever shall arise for their benefit. W«
will live up to this letter, and inform tharn that the most
wonderful and valuable medicine for their general use ever
invented, is “ Dallxt’h Magical Pain Extractor.” Its vir
tues are so rare, mighty and eccentric, that eften they ap
pear to work more like miracles than by science, so effect*
ive, electric and astounding are its powers on the human
body, that, though now it is daily tried by thousands cf
people, not one of this great mass but is delighted beyond
comparison, and candidly confess they, on no consideration,
will ever again be without it.
The Inventor, Mr. fl. Dailey, has wisely kept the secret io
himself. Counterfeits are busy about it, but without suc
cess. Its overwhelming merits defy all competition, and
its peculiarities analysis. We confidently commend all pa
rents to seek its acquaintance, for suiely such a friend, who
laugh* at death and suffering, restores the blind, lame, halt
and scarred to perfection, am all from pain, Ls a “friend
indeed.” .
We wish the discoverer of**this mighty blessing, who lan
real benefactor to mankind, God speed.

Important Orders from the President*
Pin la Delphi a, April 25.—New Orleans papers
of Sunday are received.
The Washington Union of this morning has a
long article on our affairs with Spain. It states
that the President regards the recent bringing
to ami examination of AmCricau vessels as a vio
: latiou of international law; as indignities to our
I flag, and aggressions uj on oar rights which will
not be tolerated. Mr. M’Ctuly is not to argue
with the Spanish cruisers as to their right of
search or visiting, but to s. yto them: “\ou
oan clajm no right of search, visiting or exami
nation of any vessel rightfully bearing our flag
upon the high seas, under any guise or pretext,
in my presence or within niy reach ; if yon at
tempt it. the act will bo done, at your peril.”
The Union further says that the Spanish govern
ment have the issue of war or peace in their
own bauds—if they persist in aggressions, war
is inevitable.

chines. but that they had agreed to account
with plaintiff, and took license under him. In
junctions were ordered in the last two cases,
and was waived io the first.

_ AND THE RIVER, PITTSBURGH, PA.
jvOCTOR BAELZ, Graduate and Practitioner In the Old
±J Schools of Medicine, AUopathio and Homoepathic, and
for the part ten years a successful Hydropathlst, has opened
a WATKII CURE in the above location.
The perfectly safe, direct and immediate effect this sys*
tem has on all Fevers, and all diseases acute and chronic
while it Is mild, grateful and invigorating to the weak and
debilitated, renders it peculiarly desirable in families, who
will be treated at their homes. ,
Allopathic and Homeopathic treatment will be adminis
tered where‘desired; bat, after long and thorough expo*
riunce, Doctor Baelz' gives a decided preference to Hydro
pathy, which has, throughout the old and new world,
proven so eminently successful in every form of disease,
including Incipient Consumption, Bronchitis, Dyspepsia,
Inflammatory and Chronic Asthma, Cuta
neons, Nervous and Liver Diseases. Testimonials of cures
from highly reputable citizens of nearly every State in the
Union, can be examined at Doctor Baelz’s office. The Rev.
Clergy are invited to consult him gratis.
Warm water being used In the commencement, and often
throughout the treatment, it is a luxury instead of unpleas
ant, as those unacquainted might suppose.
