I TOWARD! TB6 Rgainse Roan Co. The managers of the Reading R.iil Road. with a view to Invert a portion of the traiel towards the . Susquehannali, from the Crilumbia Rail Road 11114 other routes, hays been induced to deduct fifty cents from each passenger travelling via Reading and Pottsville, by the old NorthUrnherimil Line of Stages or the Opposition Lineko eattawisal and Nottbum' berland. By these mearis the line wall made as cheap as on Other routes,. and the deduction was intended only fur passengers travelling ail the way through to the S ssrandoma. But it has recently been as certained, that the Old line of Stages have for some time past, been giving Northumberland Tickets, to passengers from Pottsville °nig ! This gross fraud, has been traced 'to this end of the dine, and it has been intimated that some of the agents of the Read ing Rail Road were privy to, and connived at it. This we do not believe, but those agents owe it to themselves, andtlie coal interest of Schuylkill county, to disavow any connection whatever with this mean and contemptible outrage. • The consequences will be, that in future, passen gers travelling by the old line, will be subjected to mortifying examinations to ascertain whether they are, innocently, parties to this fraud! We are grati fied to know that the u Opposition - Line ' • is not di rectly or- indirectly implicated in this transaction ; they have taken Honesty as the best policy, and they will reap the ultimate edvanlage. One gentleman, heretofore a supporter of the old line, was so deeply mortified at ascertaining that he had been thus imposed upon, and made a tool by which to work out the dirty, underhand practices, of some of its propnetors, returned to Pottsville in the Opposition Line, honestly declaring, that he Icould not consent to be made, in the most remote manner, a party to such a fraud. STAY/ at re —We. regret to learn that a person by the name of M•Lty, lately from New Orleans, indicted several stabd. with a large Jack Knife, on four parsons, on the afternoon of the 4th, at Mr. James Painter's Tavern, near Port Carbon. No pro vocation was given bu t a refusal on the part of the pers"ns stabbe I to pet mit fum to jotn in their festi vities. Several 'of the wounds are severe, but will not prove fatal. Maley has fled. S Gazette, has appeared this week in an entire new dress; I eing an assuranctthat it meets the deserved encouragement, due to an undeviatipg course of honorable principle and charitable intlEn uon. To one Om understand, us.—. The stormy fields of political strife, and the rough encounters of world ly are alone fur the male portion of crea tion. Nature, good .feeling; and manly virtue, have_ raised a barrier of defence before the female sex which should prove to the honorable mind, an uner ring monitor of their sacred position. The refine-' merits of society encompass them, like. the magic circle of the enehantei, possessed of power to keep out all' evil spirits, and protett those enclosed by its potent agency from surrounding dangers. Is there one who can boast the name of man, unless he have the form alone without the heart, who would invade this sanctity? who would ruthlessly break down the conventional harrier, which society has erected flyi angry feeling engendered by political diffre en allots sufficiently deplorable tn itself, but when the venom which barbs its missiles is diverted from the uriginol object, when the hand of a brute turns the shaft towards the female bosom—then indeed we feel for man's littleness, and. hesitate to claim coal panionship with our species. And there are those base enough to do this : Caereis one, for whose eye there lines are intendeif, who -could with a satanic feeling, cull all the noxiotts poisons from a party warfare, intended to drug the chalice of-a father, and send them under.cover to his daughter! Could his name he blazoned to the world; could community know the viper, who can thus spit his gangrene and pestilence around tile domestic hearth, how would the finger of honest and indignant scorn be pointed at him ! how Would men of elf parties loath hum and his insignificance There is no palliation for such conduct: impulse has its excuse; the beat of strife may ne overlooked; hut the cold, deliberate wretch, who would seat himself dispassionately to collect the gall and bitterness, which unhappily is too often found to stagnate in our public press, and who would seek tei wound a female's feeling, through her fath er's vituperation—in the language of the poet. .r._ 5 ;! 3 J ILLE. ••May have man's fortn; but at his hirth—he suraion't, Sonia devil thrust sweet nature's hand aside, • Ere she had poured tier balm within his breast, To warm his irons and earthly mould with pity.

THE MINEW3:-JOURNAL. New Vork Misror.—Morl than seventeen years have now elapsed, since tane Jourtialves•firat com menced., Its infancy was attended by firths- minisl concomitants of original literary effort, but those perils were safely .passed, and the fifth .year of its teens has found it, not backward, and lack adaisical miss, whose dress is her only claim to dis tinction, but a bold, dashing tolle,a.kader of the ton, whose attire is copied, whose gait is studied, whose music is [mitt:Fred, whose poetry is repeated, and whose pre-eminence is paramount. We are willing to acknowledge, that a partial feeling inclines to to IViss Mirror it was on her sweet bosom, we poured forth our young song of love,: a kind of platonic feel ing subsisted between us ; to her, we told our griefs, and she in turn revealed them to our juvenile ideal of female beauty. Not us a " base Sir Panda rus of Troy," but in those tones and strains, when the heart's first music is awakened, and the strings of young affections are first touched, as Memmon's , lyre, by the rising sun of loveliness. But one third of a century has rolled past us, still should we out live "as many lives as Plutarch had," never could we forget, the intense anxiety with which we await ed the recurrence of that momentous Saturday, whit was to seal our fate; We had sent a piece of poetry to the Mirror for insertion fit had been .promised " next week'. " but bow slowly the days did wear'. We could not with Mrs. Hailer ask, "Is Saturday come again.rn soon ! " it seemed doomed, like Vainkrdecken, never to double the promontory of time ! At length it did come—the lines appear ed, and we were ordained a scribbler! Then sought we other bosoms to pour our joys arid sorrows upon —the " Minerva 4 ' of Brooks, was a favored one, and we 'divided our leisure between the two. Poor Minerva died! but she did not take with her from earth the ./Egia—its protecting power was shed over the Mirror, and she outlived the , thousand ills' which a literary journal, as well as flesh 'is heir to !' Our love has grown with her growth, and strengthened with her strength. We do not often indulge in lau datory strains on her charms, for who of us. is not chary of exposing his first love." We now are wedded to another—instead of passing the current of our life, on the green margin of literary life, " where flowers perennial bloom," the stormy camp of political war, the winter of discontent, and bruised monumental arms, have proved the arena of our be- ing's struggle! Yet memory fondly reverts" to days bye-gone ; our sympathies are uil enlisted in the success Of the Mirror, and great is our pride to find her worthy of our first, oar long-enduring lore ! Her example has been most beneficial, in co , rrecting the standard of literary 'taste: it has reformed the reading matter of that soft set, whom it is our delight to love, and un der whose soft influence our infant years are formed. In correcting that, it has worked a moral reform— no longer do we see our journals loaded with jargon to feed the imagination, pithout improving •the mind. Amusement and instruction now walk hand in hand, through the delightful puterre provided fur us ; the choicest flowers of literature, whether indi genous or exotic, are spread before us—the fragile are nurtured, and the hardy, skillfully pruned of their wild exuberance. The pleasure grounds of intellect are thrown open, and all may feast on the sunny verdure and fragrant charms of their productions. The noxious weed—the poisoned flower, is extermi nated, and the rich fruits, worthy the skilful culture of the flerist, are alone presented. With s - fich feelings and views, we announce the commencement of the seventeenth volume of the New York Minor." Did we think a single per son in our region was unacquainted with its merits, or its design, we would publish the " prospectus in full, " for his especial edification; but there are few comdlunities where it has not made its way, but few fire sides that are not gliddened by its weekly rims, and none who have heretofore omitted to join the number of its patrons, should hesitate to lend their rid in supporting one of the olds-t, best and most beautiful Journals which either continent of ehris tendom can boast. Cuoper. the Nctielist, or it would be as well to write it, Cooper, the Libehet, has obtained an•indict !tient. against James W. Webb, of the N. V. Cour ier end I,,nquirer, from the Grand Jury of Otsego County. We gave up our "Homeward Bound" and "Home as Found" for the Cooperstown Editor, but in justice, may say we carot part with our Naval History. We fear Mr. (doper is entangling himself by the trial in the web of his fate, and we advised Col. Webb to remove the trial if possible to Cataraugus Cs., where, When three young men were tried for shooting and mortally wounding a dog, the written verdict of the Jury was—" All three guilty ; plaintiffs damages assessed at 6 pence : and each of the defendants to have another shot at the dog!' Gieszl - R.—An ukase has been issued at St. Pe tersburg to restrain the wandering habits of the gip seys. They are ordered to provide themselves with fixed habitations by January 1, 1841. This will be more difficult to compass, than teach ing the Russians to shave ! The Zingari sre a wild lawless race, and have been well described, As the lion in the wood, Ae the eagle tit the air, As the king-whsle in the flood, So the gipsey in his lair. " Chambersburg.—This town it 'most delightfully located in the very centre of Franklin county, and in the midst of an agricultural country, which will bear comparison with any in our Union--the valley of Cumber/and. We should judge its population must approach 5000. and the-moral tone and intelli gence of its inhabitants may best be tested by the fact that nine houses of public worship 'idorn its limits, and support is given to three newspapers. The Frank lin Repository has been near 45 years in existence, 32 of which it has been under the charge of Mr. Harper who still conducts it, and may probably be considered the most veteran editor in Pennsylvania'. To his polite attention end courteous conduct were we indebted, during a recent visit, for much .valuable information and ass/stance,. May his grey hairs go down in honor to therrresting place, attended by the respect and esteem of all who enjoy the happiness of hie acquaintance. The Court House and Bank are fine buildings, the latter especially being built with considerable taste. Immediately through the heart of the town a fine stream, whose name of Indian euphony, we ' have fergoitee, or rather could never pronounce, af fords • water power which is very advantageously employed in the manufacture of carpinter's tools, straw paper, die., for which large and commodious factories are erected. Their products find an outlet by the rail road to Harrirbw.g, and from thence the whole union is at their command. In a short time the Franklin Rail Road will connect with Maryland improvements, and a direct communication, perhaps by rail road, be formed to Pittsburg. Abaence of Mind.—A drunken fellow in.N.

American Martufadtarea.—Mr.Narris of Philadel phis, has shipped two-more locomotives, intended for the Austria rail road.

Liberal Thmatiori.—lt is said that John Lowell, of Boston, died in some remote part of Asia, while on his travels, and left half of his estate, amounting to $ 250,000, to the support of free lectures to the people of Boston. The first course is to be given next winter, and Mr. Billiman, of New Haven, and Drs. Palfrey and Walker, of Cambridge, are engaged for the season. The increase of public lectures in our country is si new era in its literaty annals, and the most happy results may be presaged from, the general diffusion of knowledge. Mackevtlf a lakind.—This place, it is well known, is just below Hell Gate, in the East river, and but a few miles from the heart of the city of New York. The corpolation of that city have erected large pris ons and other works on it, although it has been in litigation. The Chancellor's Court of Orange Co. has recently adjudged the proprietorship to George Hummer, Esq. for his mother, Mrs. Bell. It is worth near a million dollars, half of which sum has. been offered by way of compromise. .

From Lexington he writes the following Hap pening to meet, and to be introduced to Mr. Clay in the morning, he very politely invited us to call at his seat, a mile and a half out of town, which we did at 4 o'clock. He received us with all the ease and urbanity for which he is so much distinguished, and entered freely into conversation upon a variety of topics as they happened to come up. It is de lightful to find a great man so perfectly affable and unaffected; and indeed this is one mark of truo greatness. " Asutexo is an enchanting spot. The mansion simple, spacious and venerable ; standing just on the border of a park of eighty acres; which for the ma jesty and beauty of its thousand forest trees, is the finest I ever saw. Mr. Clay has two other wood land pastures, and in all, something like 800 acres in his farm. He has lately turned his attention very much to raising stock, and it is said no man in Kentucky, even, can show you fiver oxen and cows than he can. He spent an hour in welkin% with us over his grounds, and detained us, almost impercep tibly to ourselves till nearly sun down. " Precocious.—On the 4th July a young 'un said to his father: "Pa, you must give me a quartet of a dollar to-day." Why. I never give you more than ninepence•on other holidays," was Pa's cool answer. "Yes, Pa, I know that," said the lad, "hut proration has since lost year, and a quarter don't go no further than a ninepenee used to."
