a POTTSVILLE. Saturday Morning, 26c0v.27, 1847. V i LNEY B. PALMER, - At Ms Real Estate and Coal Armies, Cornet of Third & Chesnut Streets, Philadelphia, No.lbn, Nassau Street„Piew York, No. ld, State Street, Boston, and South east corner of Baltimore, dr Calvert Streets, Baltimore, is our Agent for receiving subscriptions and advertisements for the Miners' Journal. • /Yeah, Circulation,. --- OiTER TWELVE - HUNDRED COPIES THE TAIIIrr ACT OF 1842; c. The Country demands its rutoratiow. For President, General Z4OHARY TAYLOR; Ouidoct to tho Decision of the Whig National Convention ~t~l :. ~n eM • y:• •p: ~ At the commencement of our new volume In January 'nett, It Is our Intention to enlarge the dimensions or the Miners' Journal, and introduce varions.other I ations and improvements, with the view of 'increasing . out space for news-matter, and affording additional (e -dibles for our increasing advertising patronage. We shall arrange the enlargement in such manner as to preserve the present shape lit the paper, and in troduce three or four columni of additional space. We will thus furnish more matter, titan is provided by many of the mammoth publications of the more popillout towns, and have none of their, itzwomfortableueso of shape. Our arrengements for furnishine the latest intern genre are ample and complete. The Magnetic Tele graph connecting this place with all the leading Cities In the Unfou, enables us to procure Important news ter the very latest moment. This is of course a very heavy expense to tit, and we may ..add that this is the only, Journal in this section of the State, that has engaged its services. The markets' of New York, Philadelphia, &c., are reported to within a few hours of our going to Oress,.thus pldeing us considerably in advance of the regular publications of the cities. The character of the newspaper is, as a general thing, a certain - index to the character of the people -supporting it. Like a minister representing our Govern ment at a foreign-court. the people are wont to esti mate our character from the conduct and appearance ofour representative. A newspaper abroad is regaiiied as the representative of the people supporting it. The Miners' Journal has a vOy large circulation among theheavy capitalists of the larger cities, and is looked uprin as the immediate representative of the in-, terests of this region. Now, to render this representa tive worthy of the position, is nor object and should be every Citizens pride—for in proportion as the appear ance and respectability, of n journal is maintained abroad, is the character of the people far intelligence, :And substantial integrity established. cr The yiewe of our correspondent 01.1 °rase," ere certainly correct; btit so much has already been‘said on the subject, that we cannot think the publication of hie-letter would add anything to Abeihterest of our columns at this time. • • We are requested to call attention to the valu. able prolieky advertised in our coluihns • to -day, by the raecutors of the late Col. Krebs. It is eligibly isjittrated on• Atte - Orwigsburg and Potts. villa road, and is well worthy the attention Of eapitaliste. • ITJ ive are under obligations to J. B. Chand• ler, tog.; of the North American, for a copy of Mr. Clay's speech, in acivanco of the mail. . The speech was issued' from that establishment, from the authorized copy of Mr. Clay, st4eral hours in advance of its contemporaries. - rgir' Erratum.—There ere several errors in the communication of our cprrespondent,X. Y. In the 19th line from thtr . sigriature, instead of " de. feosive"—read' diffusive. In the 11th line from I:ic;ttom,, instead of :" hie," read Mm, &c. There are several typographical errors, which the reader will hails to forego. . ta' Clerk of : the Rouse.—The Whigs having secured a clear majority in the lower house of Congress, the election of 'a competent Clerk is exciting attention. We have before expressed a preference for Mr. Nathan Sergeant, of Philadel- Phis; and we perceive that his claim. ore . , urged in opposition - to those cf B. B. French, who I will, it is presumed, be the caucus candidate of the locofocos. '1 • CT Mr. Clay's Speech.—The speech of Mr. Clay Was received on Tuesday last. We have read it, with the tnost profound admiration, and „are prepared to fully ,endorsi• every sentiment and pesition iissomed. It is \ iilm, dignified, and searching, and there is not a syllable in the whole paper l t that is t, , not strictly true s , just, and honor's ti!o. ';lWe laidlt before the public in an extra, and should have ,transferred it 6 our"columns, if our iiiniU permitted, though the resolutions published i tour i last, embrace. the main principles of the e: h. :1 , ['Death of Volunteers.—lsrael and Henry • i4cr r cher, of 'this county, and metithers of the Fleading Artillerists, died in June last, at Perote, Mexico. I I Kennedy Cochran—The death of this young g6ntiernen, in Mexico, is-announced by: Col. Viryn k,rp iri•ei letter to . Mr. J. G. Cochran, of this p aea r a brother of the deceased. . I ' IVVe also notice the death of Mr. James Shaw, a printe'r, and an exemplary rosin, who be longed to the Oemeron Guards. He was in say :ere' batiks, and, sustained severe wounds, which, ' niidotibt, hastened his death: • g7").l.lanufdclure. of Gas.—The hotel keep erstof several of the most prominent cities and towns are availing themselves of the recent die '.eo4ry I, of an ingepius mechanic, for manufac 'wring gas to light their own premises. The cost of the apparatusand the materials used for gener ating the gas, are, in the aggregate, less than the' rates charged. by the gas companies. The travelling circus exhibition , of Gen: :Welsh, it will be re membered, was supplied with gas=light manufac tured on the spot. We think it would scarcely be amiss to introduce an apparatus somewhere in Centre street, in our borough, as the greater por tion of the , business stands could be supplied by it at a Ilea; Cost their mrinyof theM encounter for lamp lights, or. 4 Nevis of last Saturday did us injustice in its silo lions to our course with respect to the late man• agempnt of the Schuylkill . Navigation. Our re- Dierks were invariably directed with a view to thO success of that company, and with the most pro found respect, personally, for the late President. It wee only in his official capacity that we felt cal led upon to observe his actions, and ;his we did in the most respectful Berms. It . vras not until he, himself, in reply to our plain, matter-of-fact state ments, became grossly personal in -his remarks, and denied ourstatementi in lobo, that we felt cal led uponito set him right, and We did this as gent ry as the circumstances seemed to - alloys, as the Newsleyli l ior may'discover upon referring to our articles. s ko• On the 13M inst. we noticed the resignation of Mr. P. Firlll, from the managemet of the comps. ny, and casually remarked, "that the live , mem. I.leftl Of all? Board were now in the ascendent." The News objects to this term as disrespectful to thew venerable and esteemed gentlemenrbut we must repudiate any such thought er intent. It is a term well-known and in universal use in 'the sense We aPplard it, and could not have . been ap plied to him with more propriety than to another, under similar circumstances. • Seco7d Pa.

Car Queen Victoria.—The tumor gains cred ence, says, the correspondence of the Courier des Etats Unii, in circles of the highest authority, of th symptoms of insanity having been manifes ted by her majesty.

Cr-furors must not Drink.—On motion for a new trial, in the Circuit Court of Yazoo, Miss., recently, it was proved to the court that some of the jurors during their deliberations, partook of spirituous liquor, upon which the Judge set the verdict aside, granted the prisoner anew trial, and fined each juror who partook of therapirits $5O.

He wished to know, particularly, the reason why the Democracy always earned the Sheriff, in this county, when the balance of the Whig ticket were etected. Of course we could not tell him. We ca Me to the conclusion that if his informatiori:was as accurate in regard to'every eounty in the United States, he must be a prodigious politician, l Horace Greely is one df the finest and most intellectual men we ever saw.

He bad been at Tunnymede, where the bold barons wrung from King John the MagndCharta—the con stitution of England. He had stood on the field of Bannockburn, where .Bruce won the liberty of Scotland ; and on the 4th of. July last, amid the wild hills and mountains of Switzerland--the land of Tell—he had in company with a compan- . ion and countryman, toasted once again his native and beloved land. But •amid all his wanderings, he had seen no land like his own land—no hall like Faneuil Hall-L•nolill like Bunker plains like those of Lexington—and no rock like that of Plymouth. , • rirWorkinguaen Should Study Politics.—l respectfully council, those • whom I address, (the' Working men of America,) I counsel you to labor for a clear underitanding of the subjects which ag itate the comniunity—to make them your study, instead of wasting your leisuie in vague passion ate talk about them. The time throvin away by the mass of the people on the rumors of the day, might, if better spent, giye them a good acqusiat ance withlbe'constitution; laws, history, and in terests of their country, and thus establish them on those great principles by which particular mea sUres are to be determined. In proportion as' the people thus improve themselves, they will cease to be. the tools of 'designing politicians. Their intel ligence, not their passions and; jealousies, will be' addressed by those who seek their votes. They will exercise not a nominal, but a real influence in the government and destinies of ' the country, and at the same time will fdrward their own growth in truth and virtue. oz 7. Loveliness.— ! lt is not your neat dress, your expensive shawl,.or your golden fingers that at tract the, attention of men of Tense. They look beyond these. it is your character they study. If you are trifling and -looie in your conversation —no matter if you are' as beautiful as an angel --you have , no attraction for them. It is the true loveliness of your natures that win and continue to retain the affections of the heart. Young la= dies sadly •miss it, whoiabor to improve their out ward look, Mils they bestow • not a thought on their minds. Fools may be won by...gew gaws and fashionable, showy dresses; but the WiWand substantial are never caught by such traps. Let modesty be your dress. Use pleasant and ,agree. able language, and though you may not bn•cour ted by the lop and the sap, the,, good and truly great will love to linger in your steps. A Hogiah Conveyance.—A far Mer of St. Al- bans, Vermont; recently Made a grand entree into that plaCe, mounted on a small car drawn by four large hogs. He entered the town at a brisk trot, amidst the acclamations of. hundreds, who were soon drawn together to witness this uncommon spectacle. After making the tour of the. market place three or four times, he went into the wool pack yard, had his swinish cattle unharnessed and taken into a stable together, where, they were re- gilled with a trough full of beans and wash. They, remained about two hours; While he despatched his business as usual at the market, when they were put to and driven home again, Multitudes cheering him. This man, it is said, has only had these animals under training six Months. A gen tleinan on the spot Offered him $lOO for the con cern as it stood, but it was indignantly refused.

This fact has caused several unprincipled counterfeiters and linita tors to palm off spunous mixtures, of similar name and appearance, for the genuine Balsam. Some are called "Syrup of Wild Cherry," " Balsam of Spikenard," " Wild CherrY, Comfrey," &c. Another " %Vester's Balsam of Wild Cherry." mispelling the name, and forging certificates to resemble those of the trite Balsam. "Dr, Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry" is the only ge nuine.
