in another part of our paper will be found
the proceedings of 'a mongrel Meeting, held
last Monday evening, p) nominate candidates
for the Borough Election. to be held on Mon
day next. We were not present, bit we
understand there was one continued scene of
wrangling from beginning to end. Certain
parties seemed determined to nominate a
particular clique, and manifested a disposi
tion to be satisfie& With nothing else. We
can find no particular objection to the ticket
—with 'one or two eiceptions, we regard it
a very &rid one, provided the persons, if elec.
ted, will attend tetheir ditties.
At- the time of, our going to press, we can
not tell what the meeting of last (Friday)
evening may deterinine upon, but we advise
that on Monday.- nest, every good sensible !
citizen -tarn out and select. from the candi
dates
presented, ttli best men for the several
officers. regardless!of any nominations pre
sented
to the public under such circumstances.
That is%matter of minor' importance corn-'
pared with the interests all have at stake in
securing food holiest men for Borough offi
ces. It is time these: wranglers were taught
a wholesome lesson- 7 ft would do than good
and be for the general advantage of our citi
zens. Those who mate it-their business to
asperse and villify the names of honest cit
izens, who are laboring for the general good,'
while they do no work, - but only abuse
those who do, with do eye themselves to the
spoils,—they should receive their just deserts
and be put to silence by the united voice of
our citizens. '
W 1101.E'iA;L F 1 FIBBING
Some reports respecting the Public School
Board, have been industriously circulated)
through the Borough of late, in addition to
the public insinuations from a certain quarter.
The-truth of the matter is, the Schoola'are
an exception to :the general managemeht of
the affairs of the &rough, and because they
are conducted systematically and with econo
my, and no opportunity of plunder is afford
ed, there is naturally some opposition to this
straight-forward tint] honest course. The
School-taxeshave iteen held up as a bug-bear,
when. in reality; they are now no higher
than they were in 1846, and for three years
previous to the last. they were one mill less.
As to the "spetulation" charges against
the Editor of thtq'paper, he has been incluCed
to examine his accounts with the School
Board, and he tinds that his bills for' Four
years - past against them, have averaged
$26 72, at probably an aggregate profit of
$2O. Moreover, b e sides devoting a large
portion of his' time to the interests of the
Schools fur several years, he has given them
about Fifty Dallarsl worth of Books. And
tr would further enlighten these busy folks,
urfko,prattle about a; yearly profit of $l,OOO
- among the dirctors by the sale of books
to the Schools, by informing them, that alt
the books belonging to the whole number of
children in the Schools put together. are not
worth $4OO, and, that the yearly sales of all
:he Book-sellers in the Borough, for the use
of the Public Schools, do not exceed slso—
a probable profir,..of $25.
Should the Judge be elected a member of
the Board, it is likely the system and economy
that now characterise that body, would soon
disgust him, as ,no 'chance is now given to
fleece the Schools; as had been practiced in
the Borough and County affairs, by the Judge,
until we exposed his charges. Since which
time, neither the County Commissioners nor
the officers -of the Borough, will pay his
bills, until our charges, for similar work,
are first ascertained.

The following ;petition is about to be cir
culated through the county :for signers—
printed copies - can, be had at this office. The
justice tsfthe petition is evident. There is no
doubt that more drunkenness originates from
the Ale and Tippling houses than at well
kept Hotels, and it seems unfair that one
should be closed and the other, the worse
the two, suffered to keep open on Sunday.
We understand some of the Hotel-keepers
express their willingnes to sign it, and it
_ is hoped theywill. thus far at least co-oper.
ate with the friends of Temperance, for the
suppression of a -common nuisance. The
petition 'should be distributed Immediately,
• • i
and filled up ready, for presentation at the
next session of the Court :
.„---' To TEE HONOILtaLt, rat SVDOIS or TES Cocars
or Sawsuu.t.. Corns':
This memorial of your petitioners respectfully
represents. that the keeping open of the Ale and
Tippling lta Houses' of.ther County on Sunday, is re
as a nuisance, and is a source of great an
salience to the sober and more moral portion of the
eitisesis.• The Reports of the Grand Jury, and the
.concurrent testimony of general observation for a
'number af years past, attribute to this cause most
of the riotous and disorderly conduct, and the ma
bonty of the Assault and battery nail criminal cues
rought up for trial .beforis our Courts: The num
ber of paupers has been rapidly multiplied, and the
County taxes greatly increased by it. A great part
of the drunkenness now prevalent in the County,
origins's , * from the traffic of intoxicating drinks on
the Sabbath—quarrelliog, fighting, riots, and in same
few instances, murder, have been tbe result. We,
the undersignectllitrefore respectfully. but earnest
ly, request that the Coun instruct all Constables,
Justices of the Peace and other officer*, as to their
duty respecting such Ale and Tippling Houses of
the County, whether or unlicensed, as con
tinue to violate the Laws of the Commonwealth,
pertaining to such; traffic, and provided for the ob
servance of the-Sabbath—that the same be closed,.
and the nuisance thereb-.removed.
Your Retitiooerl els hereby tender their thanks
40 the Court for, th promptness with which the
ov )
, previous order, reflecting the closing of the bins of
Hotels was issued. and are happy to testify to the
good effects already result iogfivin its enforcement.
Your petitioners would also suggest the propriety
of the Court commending , the .epaduct of the Con
stables of 'Blythe, `Schuylkill, and other townships

We last week mentioned the promptness of

to close their Bari on Sunday. and "the good
effect it was already producing. We learn
since that the Constable of Schuylkill town

charge of his duty. •He also notified the Ale
houses of his district respecting the ream
•order of the Court. Some of the keepers
complained that it was hard. but upon his
showing them the laws on the subject (which.
by the way, we understand he clipped from
the Jourard) they consented, and now their

THE COAL TRADE.,IPOO 1851.
We stated last week. that the Rents of the Navi
gation Company would pay the current expenses.
We intended to say that the Rents and the toll re
ceived from the miscellaneous tonnage of the Ca
nal, other than Coal, would pay all the current ex
penses, :ncluding, the repairs, of Cars in thisßegiou.
thus leaving all the toll deriVed from Coal to be lip.
propriated to interest and dividends. The actual
capital of the Canal is about six millibar of dollars
—the interest on which is $360,000 By maintain
ing tow rates .lae will build up a trade of one mill.
lion tons of Coal, in less then two years, which, at
an average toll of 40 cents, will pay a dividend cut
her actual capital' of 6 per cent, and relater her
property Productiv:e. afterwroi , To unite again
with the Railroad in maintaing high rater, would
destroy all confidence in hermanagement,bnd blight
toe great davee, her future prospects.
. The agenfs of the Reading Railroad Company,
are very ketive in this Region in trying to secure
trade to' the Railroad—but the strum' current jg
greatly in favor of the Canal. If Cars and Boats
could be obtained, their shipmenie would equal
those of the Railroad.

sacEunsirr nuanso.
The N. Y. Freenian's joiernal, -. which is
understood to be in the confide:meet Arch
bishop Hughes:hest the followingirtiCle re
specting his prospects for the Cardiaidate:
It is hardly necessary for us to say thakthes
idle stories which liave appeared mime of
the papers about 4rchlnshop Hughes in
Rome, are without; foundation. Oise day
they have if that our Arehbishop / iinot to be
made a Cardinal.- next day that he has not
only been named Cardinal, buf that the gel
, emu ceremony of giving the hat tins taken
place. The date given for this last event
was the 22A ,ult. Our/own adviees from
Rome are to the 04th. At that liate the
Consistory was again put off till one of the
first days of April,!' on which occasion . His
Eminence Cardinal Gousset, Archbishop of
Rheims. and H: E, Card. Fornari, were to
receive, solemnly the hat. The various rut
mots about the elevation of Archbishop
Hughes are without defined authority, but
nothing:is known iiontrary to the intention
and desire of the Holy Father thus to, honor
our Country at a very early day. The reason
brought against it by
. some of the Cardinals,
on the ground of the impossibility of a Car
dinal to maintaizi-his state in America as a
Prince of Rome, seems to apply to an order
of politics that isubw antiquated. Thello
lr Father himself:looks to the reality, not
the emblems of dignity. Although the re
ports we allude to are without foundatioD, it
is nevertheless true as ever that at Rome all
such important questions move ponderously
slow, and that if our Archbishop should be
J so soon elevated to' the Cardinalate, it would
be an unusual thing, and a testimony of extra
ordinary regard for the United States on the
of His Holiness the Pope. Our infor
mation from Rome on this subject comes not
horn Americans but from Europeans.

sad bays, for they have not only henna to clear op
and cultivate this wild land, but have doubled. tre
bled, and in many . Matinees quadrupled, the priers
of their wild lands, thereby showing the estimatios
they now have of that kind of property which a few
years stare they regarded as of little importance.
ai few facts will show : 41100 per acre bas been re.:
tused for land that wu purchased 'about six years'
since for less than 0.5 per acre, and the very hest crops
of wheat, rye, cons and English hay have been taken
from these new lands ; and it is admitted now by the
Wand farmers that these lands will - produce more
ter acre, with the same cultivation, than the old
farms or lands of the island. They have been exam
ined by the beat agricultnriste, who have unhesitat
ingly pronounced them to be of excellent quality for
alt purposes of culture for grain, Suite, and garden
vegetables. .
'Prof. Renwick: of Columbia College:ln the city of
New York, the Hon. Henry Kelp and. Gen. Adonis
ram Chandierof the American Inathute, who visited
and examined these lands. expressed their entire eon-
Arlene' In their virtue and valise for cattiest loe.
Dr. Underhill, celebrated for his successful culture
of the grape at Croton Point, Bald. more than the, e
years ago, after as examinatiotr,of that part of the
island. that he was willing to risk whatever of repu
tation he had as as aviculturist, that these land.
would b. found tote most productive for MI kinds of
grain, (reit. and Omits grown in this laStude.
Dr. Perk. soh , first ilir"ned public attention to the
cultivatlim of these lands, said they would bo found
to be, when cultivated. highly 'productive and the
puce", of his eattivation at Lake Road has proved the
truth of the prediction.
Those who wish to know moth , of the bathing, of
gentlemen who Insect:sled the subject ofeultivating
these lands.thre referred to the "Transactions of the
American Institute for the year 1847," at page 1180, as
published by the Legislature of the State of N. Y.
The advantages of these lands are many. The ell
wale of the taland being mild and beatiby,the soil and
surface being easy and plelasanltto till, two men will
probably cultivate as muchdand on the Island as three
men can in almost EU other pertof the State of New
York. As a general thing. there la no Wia.ta land,
fur example, in a tract of 100 or 1000 mires (if Long
island land, there are no ledges of rock. deep ravine..
nor swamps, nor morass. to obstruct cultivation, or
places that cannot be cultivated. or rendered (It for
use, except at great tabor and coat, thereby taking out
a very large per rentage of the land. as-in all the nor
thern parts of the State, or avec( In the 'county of
Westchester. The vrintera on the Island 'are shorter
and milder Limn in any other part of the. State, and
these lands are accessible at all seasons of i be year by
means of the Long Island Railroad, and hare, in ti's
respect, a very great adtranlage over the lands and
farms that are situated on the bays and harbors, for
they ate obstructed by ice at certain seasons, and
mogul imeP when it is highly important fne the farmer
to gat to market in order to obtain the highest market
price for his produce. For example, a farmer living
on the north chore of the Island, and ?citrons of the
harbors, had 1000 bushels of potatoes, which he kept
for a higher price than they were bringing In the ni
and in toe winter. when potatoes wart bringing one
dotter and one dollar and s quarter per bushel in New
York, the harbor was frozen up, and there was no
way by which hr conid get his produce to market,
and thereby avail hiatielf of the hest pricer by the
time the harbor opened and navigation , commenced,
potato', were only
the
cents per bushel . Had. lb.'
farmer lived on the borders of the railroad, he could
have had the full benefit of the New tort merketi—
thaktng the small &detente of at leastllsoo for his
year's work. The very largest crop* of wheat, rye.
earn and potatoes can be raised on this land, and Of
fruit, apples. pears, peacherr. then's", quincee , and
grapes of Onest qualities, and at small cost, and - also
every variety of garden vegetables It is not gener
ally known how much money the Long island farmer.
and gardeners realize in cash for their products: they
are mostly, as a class of men, unesteatatioasoand pre
fer to quietly psis their money out at interest, than to
tn.thea show of.wealth ; and in every instance, when
a man Is industrious and attentive to his business, hr
soon becomes independent. Mr. John J. Stoothoff, of
Jamaica. received. in the year 1847, from about 30
acres of land, cultivated In peaches, peas. potatoes,
and asparagus; about 413,600.' He lent all his produce
to market with teams, a instance'of more than twelve
miles.
Mr. Van Sick len, of Jamaica. cultivates 69 of
land at a coat of about $l,lOO in labor and manure,
and receives about 113,600 per year. (See American
Agriculturist. Feb. No. tfhlkand also the Transactions
of the New York State Apirattoral Society.) These
important cases show what industry and prudence can
do on Long Island land. ' The land of Messrs. awe
boff and Van Blcklen is very much such land a* this
now offered for sale, being in the same range of the
island, and In no way superior trt these new lands
Objections,have been made by some to the new lands
along the line of the railroad, on aerostat of the sup.
posed difficulty of steering them of roots—the old
mode of clearing by the island people being to gAb
or dig out these roots by band, at a coot of Bill) per
acre! This procesi 4a not only unnecessary, but ab
solutely injurious to the lend, by depriving it of a
great quantity of roots and woody natter, which it
left in the ground to decay, adds greatly to Its (*eclat.
ty. The true plan is to clear with ttre ntough end the
barrow, which can be done without difficulty for-*3
or per acre. By taking a little time it call beeub
dued by simply harrAwing into the top of tbeground,
after the bushes are removed, a crop of rye, or wheat
and grass and clover seed, The surface can be Oiled
with grass and olover in this manner Without either
ploughing or grubbing; and by successiie mowing
for two or three years, all the small bushes, scrub
oaks, and whortleberries w ill be killed ; and when
thus deprived of life by repeated cutting of their
tops, the roots soon decay, so that by about the :bird
year the land can be ploughed by one yoke of oven,
or a pair of horses anda common plow, and the land
in fart greatly eartehed by the decay and decomposi-•
non of all the roots in the ground.
To reader this mode most suceenful.about IVO lbs..
of guano, or 50 bushels of ashes, should be applied to
the acre with the seed, and the ground well harrow
ed with an iron tooth harrow. Guano or ashes will
cost fro mti to per acre.
All Kinds of manatee end fertilizers can be obtain
ed as cheap on these 'softies in any part of the coon
try, as they can be carried by railroad 50 miles for
less than they can be 7 miles by common •road car
riage.
Building materials can be bad at all seasons with
out difficulty, at the prises of the New York markets. -
Labor can also be bad without difficulty, and at rea
sonable prices.
The 2articular land I wish to offer, and to which I
woubrehli attention, is at HER/d ANN VILLE. about
50 miles from the South Ferry depot, Brooklyn. on
the line of the Long Island Railroad. This is a beau
tiful tract of land, and near the famous Ronkonkoma
Lake one of the most delight fel sheets of water that
can be found any whcle and In a perfectly healthy
situation. The Wide at Hermannville are laid nut
Into lots or parcels, and will be sold In quantity to

K NOWLEDGE IN DEMOCRATIC
The following remarks, from the Scienti
fic American on this subject, are SQ full of
wisdom and good sound " common sense,"
we are sure our readers will thank us for
copying them. They are just such senti-
ments as should be generally diffused among
he people of our country—plain—practical
and to the point: •
The few remarks which we are now abou t
to make, are applicable to men of every age '
and in every condition of life: t• Knowledge
is power ;" wealth is only desirable because
of those things which it can purchase to
gratify' the desires, 'but there are somethings
which cannot be purchased with wealth,
and knowledge is one of them. Wealth can
purchase houses, lands, adherents, and bau
ble honors, and a- man may sit down and
enjoy thes e=t4p th i n gs at once. An heir to an
empire may b born, he may be the legal
successor to t tropes, armies and . navies ; ..
over all these he may exercise dominion and
be their ,posiessor, but no man was ever
born an heir :o knowledge. An idiot maybe
born a prince or lord, a fool among beggars,
while the son of a beggar may be more than
a prince among kings and more than a titled
lord among magnates. Books, teachers,
and money may be lavished to procureknowl
edge, but the individual cannot obtain it
from teachers or ,kciok", without personal
effort. Knowledge hn. only be obtained by
labor, and without this no man can obtain
it : and However poor a man may be, if be
labors to acquire knowledge, he cannot fail
of success accdrding—yes according—to the
amount of labor he expends in the search of
it. The nobles and magnates of European
nations are well aware of the" power of
knowledge." This is the reason why they
have endowed splendid colleges to which they
send their sons to labor as any plebian's sons
must labor, in acquiringinowledge. Knowl
edge therefore, is democratic : it is true that
more time and means may be at the command
of the rich than the poor, and in this res--
•pect, the former' have the decided advan
tage : but they are brought to the same level
in, one respect, they must work. One ac
quires knowledge faster than another, all
haire not the same faculties, but talent is in
the mass. The Majority of great men have
sprung from the people. Shakspeare, New
ton, Franklin, Watts, Burns, Fulton, Sze.,
were men of the people, the workers—
plebians' born, but kings of mind while '
crowned monarchs beside them are but kings
of mud.
. . . .
There is another wronertotion abroad re
specting " a learned man." Some suppose
that a man cannot be learned unless he is a
gteat astronomer, or can speak twenty or
thirty languages, and so on : and others that
a man must be profoundly acquainted with
alt the sciences- There are very few who
acquire a profound knowledge of more than
one science, as a single science requires a life
time of study. Such men as Humboldt and
Henry are exceptions 'hut although iiTew
men become eminent in a number of sciences,
the tact is beyond dispute, that a man must
pursue continually one branch of Science
to become profoundly versed and eminent
in it.
We talk of this and that influence, level
ling the mass of men upwards, but the great
elevator, and democratic reformer is knowl
edge. The well behaved intelligent man i s
respected although he may be poor, and we
wish this fact to be spread far and wide, and
to be felt by every man. The possessor of
knowledge who enjoys the simple pleasure of
reading, is more rich strictly speaking, than
the rich ignorant man and he feels conscious
that he has the
,means ol gratifyinga desire
--of enjoying an enjoyment (tautological
though the expression be) of a more pleasu
rable nature thin any -Which can be enjoyed
by the most wealthy barbarian Who cannot
say his A B C.
uorr THE 31.124 that first introduced a fin=
niag,-mill into Scotland, l was denouneed as
an'atheist. In the opinion of the• ad-fogies
of that generation, it was " flyinuitato.. the
face of the Laird' . '—and getting up a:gajas4'
wind when Providence willed a calm. •
