contested Election ease is now progres-
sing in Philadelphia, and exhibits frauds of:
the most astounding 'character. It is now
evident that W. B. Reed was elected by
thepeople, and a fraudulent return made from
Moyantensing, giving the certificate to Hon.
B. Kamm., Many persons who did not re
side in the Ward, and whose names , appear
on the tally list as having voted, swear that
they did not vote at the election, and many
were abient from the Wird. More voters,
than the whole number returned for Reed
in the 2d Ward, have already sworn that
they voted foi Reed.' Lbcofo'coism does not

THE PEOPLE'S ROAD.
A few days 'since, Mr. Frailey, Senator
Iron Schuylkill county, presented to the
Senate petitions ntimerously signed, :asking
for an act of incorporation to construct a Rail
road from Pottsville to Norristown, and on
Saturday last, ,he read in his place and pre- ,
seated a till tor that purpose. This Measure
is auracting,; at this time,a large share of
public attention , and so ras we ran under
stand, a: decided feeling, in its favor is mani
fested. In ;the coal region the people are
moving t n incase, and the inthu.siasm. which
is there felt on the subject is being communi
cated lOng the whole of the contemplated
route. The people of Norristown and its
vicinity are fully sensible of the advantages
which Must result from the Completion of
this great itnprovement;and they will aid in
whatever may be necessary to secure this di
rect comtnnmeation with the mineral wealth
of Me State: •
The above is from the Norristown Herald.
We are glad , to see the right spirit, manifes
ted in so substantial a quarter. The feeling
is gradually, developing itself in different
places, and before long we shall have, a gen
eral outpouring in favor of the :proje ct, from
one end of the line to the other.
• ;TUB RAIL ROAD,
From, the mouth of Mahonoy Creek to
Millersburg. is, we understand, soon to be
placed under contract. The survey > and lo

This is the first promisingmovement in
favor of a Railroad along the East side of
the river, a route which ought to have been
adopted long ago. The success , of the enter
prise at Zerb's Gap has given.rise , to. this
movement, and we hope will atimblate fur
ther enterprise in this section of the county.
We have always believed that the :success
of that enterpnse would stimulate, and

Amongst the *anent men . of the last and
present century,:m4 be named Rev. Robert
Huntington, the founder of a sect of Amino
miani, called after him, Huntingtonians.—
In early lite he was 4, Coat heaver, and rest
, ded at New Castle.; upon the Tyne in Eng-
I land, where he sias employed in lin: business
above designated, and was known then only,
as a very ignoraut. vicious man :i our by .
some instrumentality, he became a Moral it
not-a religious man;_ and ultimately a very
celebrated preacher.; To show how mean
itis.conditiun at one Mine ; it is.stated in a me
moir 'written by hilmself, atter he became
•religio6. and had ledrned to read and 'writ
that on one occasion, he was reduced so c
low by want of emptovilient. and previous
sickness. that he was in danger of petishing
for want. He states, that having been two
days without any food, save a small piece of
drt heed and water, Saturday night found
him without a morsel of forgkof any kind,
for the immediate wants of 'himself and his
wife, dnd their next day's Substiience. They
had locked the door, that their neighbours
should not come in upon them, and ieehliefr
destitution: when he proposed to his wife
that they should kneel down, and Pray to
God for his mercy in the strait, in whieh
they found themselveS. He says, •• I ponied
out my soul iu fervent prayer, and while-on
my knees, there cattle a knock at the door :
this we paid no attentiou to, till I had ended '
my prayer; . when on opening the door, we
found aloaf—a leg of mutton—and a basket 1
of potatoes." , .
'ln some short time after this, he became a'
preacher-shad a Chappel built for him—and
was listened to, by immense crowds., ,Soon
after this, he lost his: wife, and. was persua
ded- to remove to London, where a large
Church was built him. which was always
filled to overflowing. Here he rose to great
eminence—was followed not only by the
masses, hut by literary men, and by persons
of distinction. - He soon after married Lady
Mary -Sanderson—kept his close carriage,
coachthan and footman, in livery—had a
Country Seat, to which he retired in the-sum
mer Months, and there he built a large
Church, in which he officiated, drawing tin
mense crowds from twelve to fifteen miles
round, his, residence,' who might be seen
trudging through the sandy lanes in that
neighborhood—coats l off, slung over a stick'
on the:shoulder. which were burthened also
with the dinner basket, so that the bearer
could stay for the utternoon'esermon. A
friend of
. the writer of this, one hot summer's
day, met au aged woman, a farmers wife.
on her return home (distanee 10 to 12 miles)
after having been on foot to Cranbrook to
the morning service. i He aecosted her Will,
" Well, Dante •• •• so, you have been to hear
the great man." - Yes." she replied. •i but
I could not get in" —‘• I could riot even get
a sight 'Of him, but bless the Lord, I saw
his horses in the stable."
At the time of the death of the Rev. John
Wesley, Mr. Huntitigton was in ,London.
and was oue of a large number of eminent
Divines, and liteiarY men of all denomina.
Lions, who were in the habit to meet almost
daily, at Seeley's (the publisher in Fleet
Street,) who had fitted up an elegant graci
ous room; for their;
accommodation, A-.
mongst other visitors, on that day,-was the
Right Rey. Bailley Porteous—Bishop of Lan-
don, who accosting Mr. Huntington, said,
" I suppose, Sir, you -have heard o f t h e
death of my dear lamented friend. the Rev.
John Wesley, who has gone to his reward,
and, is now resting from his labors. - Mr.
Huntington replied '• I have heard of his
death, my Lord, but as to his reward, or his
rest, I ant in doubt :is he not rather in hell,
suffering the penalty ut ills false teaching:"
On hearing this, thel Bishop lIIICIV up
both his hands. appearing ready to ...ink :
and with horror depleted in his couutenanee,
exclaimed: "Mr. Huntington, did I hear you
aright ?" " Is it poSsible von can entertain
such a horrible thought ?,' To this Mr. Hun
tington replied, " 311 . ' LortU du you. seriously
think I Mr. I:)..egleT, - i-i - tiow 411eaven ?" The
Bishop's
"isoh op. , s

have not the - shadoliirof a s s liatif toilbt,
that my valued friend is not t 7in }Ettre° :
. hut I fear. Sir, neither you or tut elf ' ill ev
er see him there." ..• HOW so lON LOV," re
plied Mr. Huutingtim, - your virtue , :,iiil
piety , will surely secure you an eutrancni,
whatever"may become of nie." The Bishop
replied, "Mr Huntington, 1 trusc both you
and myself, through the merits of a cru
cified Saviour, may reach Heaven : but my
great and 'good friend, Mr. Wesley, will be
so near the throne of God, and von and I
so tar off, that we may spend au eternity
there. and not catch a glynipse Whim."

11,::i011/11 , ..q1- : • .
\V BERE,S s, The .Dauphin and Susquehanna '
,Railroad Company have now completed, and
in. use their Railroad, froM Dauphin on the '
f=;tlN.quellautia. to Roush Gap a distance of "
twenty miles, and have the balance of six
un t o , to Myrna Eagle under contract, and
W hich . tt•ill be proseeuted to speedy comple- '
MD. And - WIILIILAS, the distance froM
Mount Eagle to Tremont is little it any tier
nine miles, at which - latter place, the West
Branch of the Mine Hill Rail Mad, from
Schuylkill Haven connects with the Swatara '
Rath-cad to Pmegrove. And . WriznXiiip
th, building of a Railroad from Tremont, to '
connect with the Dauphin anti Susquehanna - ...p
Railroad, at Mount Eagle, would be an im
po'ement of infinite importance to the Coll., •
Tr de, in the . Western Coal Region pf-
S huylkill County, by forming a continuous •
i
route io the - great central Railroad, and thus •
opening avenues to ever): desirable - tharket, - :-
and at all ,ea-on , - tt the year: -
And V.'itr.rti:As, the range of - mountains
with the general liice of the country between
Tremont:and,. Mount Eagle, plainly indicates
Mai a practicable route of very light grade.
can be obtained for a Railroad between those .
points. therefore,
/?;.,,,tred, That an effort be made to ob
tain the passage of a Law _by the Legisla-
tort. of Pennsylvania, incorporating a Com•
patty to locate and build a Railroad from or
near Tremont. in the County of Schuylkill,
to Mount Eagle, in the County of Dauphin.
k.-solced. That the building 'of such con. •
netting link of Railroad, will afford a mar.
ket ibr Coal to the Schuylkill Region, that
uuder existing f7irt:umstances,. cannot be - •
made available, and will at the same,tiine
open facilities for the citizens of this County
'to obtain the produce of the fertile valleys
of Cumberland, Franklin, Perry, and other
counties, and incidentally establish a busi. •
nes that will be attended - with mutual bene. -
fit to all with whom we may have inter- ..
course.
Resolved, That.we respectfully. suggest to
the Legislature of this State, that it is prop
er that they should promptly
. aid in the en- -•
terpris.: of the Coal Region, in every effort
develop our resourses, and that, as has
been justly remarked, that the Coal nunes'of
Pennsylvania are the prolific source of more
wealth than the Gold mines of
uti r trade should therefore receive
.a consid
eration commensurate with its importance;
Asoici, That the connecting link of
Railroad proposed, would bring Pottsville,
the great emporium of the, southern Coal
basin, in close proximity with :the seat of.
'Goverment, as well as connect the - Colossal
iniprovements •in Schuylkill County, with
•the various State improvements, a privilege
which we think we have a right to, inn•
much as the taxes paid by this County for
making and snstaining the public improve
mentiz, are a considerable item in the finances
of the Government.
Resolved, That Henry Eckel, T. A. God
frev anti John Stimpfler, Esqrs., be a cost:
mince of correspondence, with power to call
a meeting.
Resolved, That Levi S. Spangler, John..
Barnett, W. Bigler, Esq., C, A. Wyette,
Frederick Wertheimer, 3loses Young and
George Sheeslev be a committee to circulate
petitions for signatures, and - forward the
same to our Represetatives in our State Leg
islature.
Resolved, That the papers , of Schuylkill
County, and all others favorable 'to: the, en
terprise, be requested to, publish- these pro-
Ceedings, and'a copy thereof be forwarded
to our Representatives at Harrisburg.
,On motion this rueetidg adjourn t r o meet
