HARMONY or NATMte AND aryiN.Arnal.•
All the precepts of ChriAtianity are agreeable to
the dictates ora . sound mind; and its promises are
happily fitted to calm the troubles of the human
heart. The system of galore supports a moral
goverrinient; Bud the doctrines and precepts of
the gospel have s direm moral tendency. The
Scriptures give &eider and, fuller views of duty
than what could be learned from the volume of
creations and enforce the discharge of what is in
cumbent upon us by the most powerful motives.
From the perversity of their hearts, men are of
\ten inclined to lay the Chia . stress on external
rites and ceremonial observances; but the gospel
ketches us that nu ritual worship can be pleasing
to nod, without holiness of heart and life; and
that justice, mercy, and faithfulness, ire hides
oensible matters of the law. Everything in the
'religion of Jesus, wether we gonsider the disposi.
lions wich it recommends, or the conduct which
it epjoii 2, promotes the welfare of the individual

to his precepts, will be the happiness of mankihd;
for in proportion he this obedience will they dis

them iq their several relations of life. If men
gormielty cherished the same mind that was in
Christ; if they were just ant Merciful, meek and
holy, what a different picture would the world

to the preservation of the PEIGH TREE.

This valuable fruit has fo a.considera,

to a destructive insect that reya upon it
near the root, which ,is discoverable, by a
gummy substance issuing from the trunk.
Many 'receipts have been published - to pre

they have not had the beneficial effect that
Could be desired. The writer of this has
a favorite tree in his yards which has for
some years been infested vvitlithere insects,
and whiCh he has taken great pains tole,
move by the application of ashes, lime, tar,
&e., all of which have failed to answer
the intended purpose. In the course of
the last spring, when the leaves came out
they soon changed , to a-pale color, and to
all appearance the tree - was ,going to die.
As the last resort Cot its restoration he had
recourse to charcoal, and a small box wa,4
placed around the roots of the tree and fil

that in a short time the tree revived, and
took a second growth, and now is in a lux• .

and much surprises all who had previously

Porter men in ambush in Centre street, above

conduct isip perfect keeping with their outrage
eins conduct at Harrisburg and Huntingdon.
They succeeded in hurting, no body, and look
good care to keep oat of danger themselves. But
what was most discreditable in their behaviour
We; that the Pottsville Band of Music parading
that evening, without any connection with the
Ritner Procession, was also assailed with stones
from the same place. Mr. Coahrisorth received a
blow on his elbow with a stone, which cat through
his clothes and 'bruised his arm considerably—
Mr. Barims was also struck but not miliaria*
injured. This was a most gross outrage; and dr.
serves the Severest punishment. No decent man
belonging to any party can justify such assassin.
like and blackguard conduct.

in coat Shipments, owing in some men(
ure to.low Water in the canal—but to a
much greatin extent to the mans of buyers.
The Coat-business, we regret to state, is
at present at a very tow ebb.- It has of
forded no profits; whatever throughout
the- season.• In . sOmeinstsnces, the arti
cle has been cold- below. Cost: -And yet
we are -told,- that consumers are holding
back .under the' erroneous idea that the
price alba article - will be still lower..--
This holding back on the part of consu
mers, prevents the dealers from contract
ing with tbe collier, and hence the busi
neascornes almost to a scan 1. This back
wardness of, the . consumers is tkerefore,
the real cause' of the present depression
in the cut}( business. It should be re-
Membered by the consumers, that only
about 150,000 tons was on hand at the
opening ohhe Navigation in the general
market, and that provided the demand
were now brisk, and were to continue so
till the end of the present season, the Sup
ply must necessarily fall short to the ex
tent of frdm 150 to 175,000 tons. The
consuniptien last year was upwards of
700,900 tons—and the quantity sent to
market this year from all the regions, a
mounts. to only about 355,000 tons—
and we have only now about three months
in which coal can be shipped, before The
Navigation will be closed by ice s From
the present want of demand for the aril
ale, it may be infeired that the abort
supply will far exceed"the amount above
stated. - How; fella - cloud then, if thtwe
premises be correct, mu-t theinterence be
that the priceit of coal will be still iower;
on the contraily-the probability is, that the
price will rise .in a very short time, and
indeed WE hesitate not to say that it would
promote the';interest of all parties con
corned, if the dealers below - should raise
the price at once, arid thus create a de
mand for the articlel—if consumers are
still resolved to hold back under the notion
ofa reduction la-prices.
Meeting of Coal Dealers.— A call 'for
a meetin,,o of the Coal Dealers will be found
in' anotherpart of the paper. The Navi
gation Company, we learn, has authorized
Mr. COLE, to take such steps as he may .
deem necessary to teat the company'a
scales, at tlasichfrerent Weigh Locks on
hue of the Navigation,—Mr. Cole, has
therefore, deemed it expedient to call a
meeting of the operators, for the purpose
of appointing a commute to accompany
him throughout the whole hiie, for said
purpose.

pertience 'that, we have had for many

want of larger quantities.
C*- The ' .ner men in this Borough"

of the election, begin to look rather blue
—and aro as, quiet as ,mire. We rather

The Porter Men had better take care how
they attempt to,play this game. •
frr The P I
_(termen novir acknowledge
that David 4. Porter was confined in the
Huntingdon county Jail. Heretofore they
have denied ;it. A short' time ago, they
also denied that be had taken the Benefit
of the Insolvent Act, and induced several
German Fariners to make bets Co that of
feet—which they have lost. Farmers of
Schuylkill county, can you place any fur
ther -confidence in the statements of , the
Porterites ? •
Resumption.—Confidence appears to
be restored, find there has been but a small
quantity of specie drawn-out of the Banks.
Every, mar-'in this community ought to
bear in mind that every dollar in specie
drawn out of Ole Banks, only increases hard
times by preventing the Banks from dis
