SAfCTA ANNA TRAVELING
By this time it is probable Santa Anna has
arrived at Havana. On the 17th of this month
he embarked at Vera Crux for Caba. He had
previously signed a letter of abdication, and had
sent his family out of the oountry. Mexioo is
again withoal a government, and a prey to fac
tions, lawlessness and civil war. The departure
of the Diotator gives no relief to the Mexican
people. Bome other military chief will sot him
self up as ruler, and plunder and oppress the
people for a time, and then fly before some other
eucoessfal rebel.
Mexioo can never have peace uotil some other
nation gives it a raler. Were Franco cod Eng*
land free from their war with Russia, tbej
would no doubt rood interfere and take posses
sion of that country. It would bo an easy con
quest, and a valuable one.
It seems to have been the design to let Santa
Anna depart safely aod quletiy. No attempt
was made to stop him, aod he has doubtless
provided well for his future support out of the
publio treasury. His public Life has probably
now closed, and a strange aad eventful career
he has had. With all his servioes to his coun
try he has won no gratitude. Ho has enjoyed
unlimited power and abused it. Two years ago
aQ almost unanimous vote of the Mexican nation
confirmed his power and title as Dictator, and
now be is a fugitive. He has thrioe fled from
hi* rvmntrv anH a&aH limn r«s!nrnpil and h*An
elevated 10 the highest offioes in the State, in
the sirugglo ol Mexico for independence. aaoia
Anna, then a young man. was ono or the most
distinguished heroes or the war. exhibiting un
uoubied oonrage. patriotism and military capa
city : and there oan be no doubt that, in the war
with this country, he aooompusheu more for the
defence of Mexioo than any other Mexican ooutd
have done. He raised largo armies ana equipped
and supplied them, and fought several batues in
whioh nothing was wanting bat suoocss to stamp
him as a deservedly distinguished leader, if he
had had Yankee oourage lo back him. he would
have won renown in that war. Hat the Mexi
cans are poor soldiers. They aro fit neither for
peaoe nor war. They are incapable of self
government, and with them republicanism mnst i
prove a failure. If Santa Anna ooaiu not rule i
them, no other man in the nation oan His
flight win not restoro peaoe ana order. The
most fonun&io event that oan bofaii Mexioo is
to beoonquerod and taken possession of
oiviiired foreign Btate.

Wh. A. Hill, Esq —We invite attention to
advertisements in another columo offering for
sale tho dwelling house and grounds, and the
furniture of Wm. A. Hill, at Evergreen Hamlet, j
Mr Hill, we are glad to learn, has taken n |
position in the large and responsible banking
houso of Drexel Co., Philadelphia, and he
proposes to make that city his home. Hence
the-sale. He has resided in this city twenty
five years, and been extensively engaged in
business, and duriog that time has sustained an
exoellcnt character for integrity and business
capacity. His publlo spirit led him into some
enterprises that probably injured him. He was
generally among the first to subscribe and lend
a helping hand to any pablio improvements like
ly to promote the interests of the oity. Among
other things, he contributed liberally to the
stook of the Market House and the City Hall;
exoellcnt Improvements, thoogh not designed or
expeoted to be investments for pecuniary profit
to the stockholders.
Mr. H. was well known here, and universally
reepeoted and esteemed. His friends will re
gret to part with him; but hie new position will
give him ample eoope for the exoroise of his
n&ncial abilities. Tho banking house of Drexel
& Co., with Its branches in New York and San
Francisco, is now one of the largest in the coun
try, and one of the soundest in the estimation
of business men. The deposits of that house
in the incorporated banks amount, we are told,
sometimes in a single day to half a million dol'
lars. We saw it stated that the deposits in the
California house, a branoh of the Philadelphia,
amounted on the 14th of Jaly to $1,100,000 for
that day alone, and the remittances from Cali
fornia to the Philadelphia house by tho steamers
frequently exceeds a quarter of a million. It is
Into Buch a vast financial houso that Mr. Hill
has entered, and wo have no doubt his services
will be found valuable We wish him abundant
A Growing Town.— The site of Lowell, in
Massachusetts, in I*l9 was purohased for
$lOO,OOO, and in 1820 had not more than two
hundred inhabitants. Now it has forty-five
thousand inhabitants and $16,000,000 invested
ia manufactures alone. Thirteen thoasand per
sons, two-thirds of them females, at the call of
bell enter the mills In the morning, and ere
nightfall earn upon an average two dollars each.
These bosy hands convert eaob year more cotton
into manufactures than is growa in the States of
Arkaosas, Texas and North Carolina. One hun
dred and ten million yards of cotton cloth,
prints, drillings, &c., are annually manufactured
in this industrial hive, besides a million yards
of broadcloths and woollens.
The Helen Jbwrtt Murder —Tho reoent
death of Robinson, the supposed murderer of
Helen Jewett, has brought oat another faot con
oerning one of tho actresses in that awful trage
dy. Rosina Townsend, the keeper of tho house
42 Thomas street, it seems, is still living at Cas
tleton, New York. She has been a resident
there for 16 years, and leading a life which is
said to go far in atoning for her former infamy.
Sbo married, some years siooe, a rospootablo

The Late President of Hungary. j
I From the Washington Union.]
There are many things to admire in the career (
and of Kossuth, the late President of
; the independent nationality of Hungary ; and
I the proper meed of admiration to the distin-
I guiahed exile, few will deny, has been freely and
j fully rendered by the Amerioan people. Bnt M.
I Kossuth oannot or will not realize his true situ*
; ation or the altered situation of Europe from
the time when his brave, eloquent words caused
i bo muoh hope and joy to the freedom
: in every part of the civilized word. He still lin
; gers, naturally enough, in the past —still treats
; potentates and powers with a freedom and equality
1 becoming the executive of an independent nationality
t —and still talks, and writes and predicts as if
\ thousands and tens of thousands of armed men
were ready to leap responsive to his wishes
While indnlging in dreams of glory, greatness
and independence for his beloved Hungary, he
I has Bhown true nobility of character by reso
j lately working at an honorable profession in or
der to obtain the neoessary means for the sup
port of himself and family. He might have se
lected a less objectionable Amerioan journal as
the medium for his paid contributions ; but pro
'bably in this matter there was no oboioe left for
him ; for, rating his poiitioai productions at a
higher standard oa this side of the Atiantio ; he
took his goods to the most profitable, if not tho
only market.
We need not inform the reader that M. Kossuth
is the regular, liberally-paid London correspon
dent of the New York Times, a paper which is
"everything by tarns, and nothing long, n and
consistent only in its advooaoy of Abolitionism
and its opposition to the Administration or Pres
ident Pierce. That the eloquent Magyar should
endeavor to adapt his poiitioai wares to the
wishes, tastos and even prejudices of tb£ editors
and readers of the Times, ia one of tboso se
quences whioh frequently flow from the some
what dependent relations of employer and em
ployee. The Times is unhesitating in its nae of
vituperative expressions when speaking of the
principles, measures and polioy of the presoot
Administration. M. Kossuth takes the hi&t,
and he, too, most havo his fling at the President
of the United States! As wo have not the space
for the whole of Kossuth's oomplaining letter,
we mako room for the following editorial com
ments of the New York Commeroisl Advertiser,
whioh briefly explains its true oharaoter:
*' 1 1 aftetos that t year fego b gentleman, whose proceed
logs Id this country aod eLsevher* have not bees calculate 1
to give b m any other reputation than that of a theorist
and discontent**} intermoddler with the affaira of other na
tion*. addressed a long memorial to President Pierce, 'd*nr
i nff to t-fune.' ac*-ordln< to morning a paper, 4 k-Au* courn our
f/.Nmwn/ would pursue i>% certain sportiest c<>ntin-jenc\n '
U W almost tieedie-M to say that no other Individual than
M. K.o3*ulh would hr guilty of imcb an indiscretion; ao-J
yet the p»per alluded to protases t > be surprised that no
’ ri-ply b&a been made by the President to »ueh apiece of tin
pertioeoce
i r
The conclusions of Kossuth’s memorial lo Pre
sident Pierce ia in the following words :
“ I will, then, in oonrlindou, venture to a.-fk
1. Whether, in the event of a revolutionary roalet*t in
Hungary and Italy, Am-rieao «hipa wilt bo permuted, un
d*r ih* lava of the United State*, to clear for port* In the
p.»!U**ni<>o of the Insurgents ’
And X Whether *uch ahlpa will bo exm-p: from w«n-b
or keuun on the high aoaa t y Austrian nnraU of war -”
Kossuth violated no prxnciple of national ft\
quette or private decorum in sending eueh a memo
rial to (he President. The President is in tbs al
most daily reoeipt of memorials where tho ex
pectatione of the writers are not a wbit less
unreasonable It was jast such a memorial as
might have been penned by on ardent Pole, or
a sanguine Irish Repealer, or a hopeful Red Re
pubUoan of Franoe, or an Italian Patriot. But
M K oBB nth and bis disciples cannot understand,
or will not acknowledge its justice, that polioy
of tho Uaited States whioh discriminates be
tween existing governments and merely iaearrec
tiooary movements —between acquired and ex
pocted independence—between official and un
official persons—between a Secretary of State and a
newspaper correspondent.
The Law of Auie-Nopllal Contracte.
I'be Cheater Rapabli&tn gives a report of a
decision by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania,
involving the law of onto nuptial contracts, no
der which a Urge amount of property is held id
thia State. John Talbot, son , previous to bis
marriage with Mrs. Hannah Calvert, entered in
to a marriage oontraot by which ebe, after her
marriage, should have and enjoy her property,
freed and discharged from the oootrol of her
husband, aDd ehoald be at iiborty to make her
last will and testament, thereby to give or dis
poso of any part, or the whole of htr estate,
either real or personal, to whom and in what
manor she migblihink fit Hannah died iotes
tale and withou Is&ne, tearing of the estate she
hod at the time of her marriage the snm of $750
at interest, standing in the name of John Talbot,
Jr , the defendant, as her trustee, which sum
bad always been treatod as her own, up to the
time of her death, aod which after her death
was collected and rooovored into possession
by her husband, be actiug as her administrator
John Talbot, sen , died subsequently, having by
his will disposed of the ne dae cf his estate) to
the defendant, aod also appointed him as his ex
ecutor. Two married sisters of Hannah daimed
the money with interest, as next of kin The
caso was argued before Jadgo Haines, on the
lbth of January last, and judgment entered for
tho plaintiffs A writ of error was taken out,
and the case argued before the tiopremo Court
of Philadelphia, when the decision of the oourt
below was revised.
la the opinion of tbo court, “ tbe husband
might have oot himself off from tbe aso of his
wife's goods, bat the agreement that it should
go to whomsoever she plo&sed to designate as
her legatee, iajnot a covenant that the hnsband
will give it to her relatives if she make no wilt
She bad the power to make tbo will, bot did not
exercise it. The presumption is,that she was sat
isfied with the disposition wbioh the law would
make. The plaintiffs had oo title by the mar
riage ortioles, for they are not so much as men
tioued or alluded to; not by any gift of the wife
during her life, for no sooh thing is pretended ;
not by a will, for oo will was ever made ; nor
by the entestate laws of the State, for they give
it to tbo hnsband. They have no title at all,
and yet they most show a good title before they
can demand it Where an ante-nuptial agree
ment limits the wife’s property to certain per
sons other than her hnsband, tbo hnsband of
oonrse oannot olaim It against tbe right of the
parties upon whom it is settled. Where It indi
cates in terms tolerably clear, that tbo bosband
intended to relinquish all the rights whioh he
had or ooold have in the wife’s property, not
only during, bot after the onverture, then it do
soends to her next of kin, and they take it uoder
the intestate laws, just as If sho had never been
married. If euoh intention had boen apparent
here, it would have been equivalent to a settle
ment of it on suoh persons as the wife might
appoint by will, and ia default of suoh appoint
ment, on her next of kin ; bat we do not see the
least glimmer of suoh a meaning In this oon
traot.”

protraoted attack of Fever and Ague, and was completely
restored to health by the use of the Liver Pills alone.
These PUIa unquestionably possess great tonic properties,
and can be taken with decided advantage for many diseases
requiring Invigorating remedies; but the Liver Pills stand
pro-eminent as a means of resioriog a disorganited Liver to
healthy action; hence the great celebrity they hare attained.
The numerous formidable diseases arising from a diseaeed
Liver, which so long baffltd tbe skill of the most eminent
physicians of the United States, are now rendered easy of
oure, thanks to the study and perseverance of the distin
guished physician whose name this great medicine bears—
a u&me which will descend to posterity os one deserving of
gratitude. This invaluable medicloe should always be
kept within reach ; and on the appearance of the earliest
symptoms of diseased Liver, it can be safely and usefully

duty to the afflicted alone prompt me to'fwad yoa this voi

Spanish Mixture, for that almost iDCurabledUaaae,
Scrofula.
Without being disposed or deeming U neees-ary to go
into the particulars of the ease, I can say that the astonish,
that have been produced by the ose of that
medicine on a member of my own family, and under my
own observation find superintendence, after the skill of the
best physicians bad been exhausted, and all the usual rem.
edies had failed, fully justify me in recommending its use
to all who may be suffering from that dreadful malady.
I do not mean to say'taiat it is adapted to all constitu
tions, or that it will afford the same relief in all cases; for,
of course, I con know nothing about that—but from what
1 have seen of the effects, 1 would net hesitate to use it, In
any and every case of Scrofula, with persons fbr whom I
felt an interest, or over whom I could exercise influence or
control. Respectfully yours,

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
GREAT DISCOVERY!
AMPLE TESTS, both by able Practitioners sod Chemi
cal Analysis, have demonstrated (he great value of
PROP. DB G RATH’S beautiful combination, called MELEO
TBIO OIL,” for the relief and core of Ptin. Bnt the people I
themselves are rendering their verdict in a manner both
uumistakeabl* and satisfactory. More than 2y,000 bottles
bate been sold in a very short time—a great proportion to
these who heard others recommend It, who had tried it.
That it Is a splendid discovery Is everywhere acknowledged,
and noiblog like It was ever if fore prepared. Why, for
Cbrru alone, It is worth £lOO,OOO a year to the people, as II
alw ys cures these painfoltormentors in tioentyfbur hours.
Bat what Is It not worth to the, people' if it cores Bait
Rheum, Erysipelas, Canker, Ulcers, Sores of all kinds, (fre
quently taking away ail the pain in twenty-roar hours,)
Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Palpitation, Headache, Bronchitis,
Piles, Womb Complaints, Cramps, Sprains, Sore or Swelled
Breast, Felons, Wounds of all kinds, Ac. 7 Woo’d $500,000
express its value to the people 7 Because a man will
give freely for relief from pain Will this Oil relieve pain t
Certainly it will. Such men as we have often named, hon
orable and high-minded merchants, mayors, doctors and
others bare so said, after from ten to fifty trials. They say
the Electric OH is the finest medical combination ever pre
pared, neither offensive nor injurious, but effectual in all
the above and many other cases- Some honorable, and
heavy business firms have, it Is true, sold some of the old
(turpentine, bituminous,'or«al tar, Ac. do.) external ap
plications, until their customers returned bottle after bot
tle, with the remark that “the remedy, was worse than the
pain ;** yet such men have never recommended nor riven
countenance to them. Bnt see some of our best merchants
ordering more every ton days, and always giving additional
testimony to the value of this wonderful discovery. That
b great many&dies are using It as a medicinal toilet article
for themself# and children, is well known. It cures
off pimples, blotches and eruptions on the fsce and neck in so
short a time,, yon would scarcely credit U. It frequently
reduces a painful swelling in two hours; has done It in ha f
an hoar; cured many effectually in six hours. If ladies
knew the soothing , strengthening and healing virtues in this
Oil, they would never be induced to use anything else for
womb com plain is or pains of any kind.
We now insert a letter Just received from Henry Wiley,
Ksq., who went to England six weeks since, (to die.)
Losdoh, July 12,1865.
Peof. Ds Grata, Phlla.—Dear Sir: When I left home for
my health, erQptions, A 0.,) I never expected to
return again, believing that my complaint would soon
carry me off. When you gave me three bottles of your
Electric 00. to take with me, as merely a palliative, t did
aot think X would so very soon be called upon to thank you,
as I now do, for my complete-restoration.
1 can only say, before the departure of the steamer, th«t
you have only to oomo here with your OIL to make a for
tune in one year. There Is not another simUar medicine in
England, If in the world. 1 will write by next steamer.
Toors. most truly, Hmav Won.
