MERCI.:O TOWN CLEANLINESS As the season advances and warm weather is likely soon to overtake us, (we hope so, at least—though the indications are rather unfa yorable just now) ii is especially important, at this early day, that the proper officers of the Borough see to,ilie removal of all causes that might interfere with the general good health of our citizens. The people of Pottsville, and, indeed, of the whole County „have, reason to congrau late themselves, in this respect! Poi a num berof years there has been comparativ l ely very little sickness in our midst—such a thing as ' any c dangerous epidemic or contagious disease is'hardlv known here, and our Borough has long retained, very justly, too, the reputation of being one of the healthiest places in the State. Still it is-=well to observe the old ; fashioned caution, that an " ounce of preven tion is worth it pound of cure,"—much might be done for decency's sake, if not for any consideration of sick beds and doctors' bills. Pools of stagnant water should be drained off and their places filled up, to pre vent the recurrence of .a similar nuisance, in future—heaps of dirt and rubbish, that are often inadvertently suffered to collect in alleys and by-streets, shOuld be removed— the street gutters cleaned out, and everything that can either offend the 'eye or vitiate the purity of the atmosphere be carried away ; that ourEoroug h may bias fanpus for its gen eralcleanliness as for itsgood health. Every citizen is.equally interested,and should make himself personallyresponsilile to the commu- : nity for whatever is left Officially undone. to : accomplish this desirable object. The Doc tors and Druggists might be cheated of many a dime by a liberal use of soap and water-- nothing tends more to the general comfort, harmony and good health of a U than cleanliness. " community. SPIRITUAL M ANIFESTATIONS. The monomania of Judge Edmonds, of New Verk, bas been cited as an argument against.,the public exhibitions of the " Rap; pers and - ether humbugs of the day—it has been suggested that they are liable to prose cution for obtaining money under false pre , tences,and thus the injurious tendency of their imposttions stopped. That, however, would be a difficult rule to enforce—it would punie all the lawyers in Christendom to make the distinction, in many cases, between true and false pretences for money-getting. Such a precedent. established in the case of :the " Spirits," would be likely to interfere very frequently with the more tangible plans of " flesh and blood." It is evident that the devoted affection of Judge E. for his deceased ,vife was the prin ciple " medium " through which his morbid imagination was wrought upon, and the fearful' influence induced,, under which he is now laboring. fn his recent " vision "he never advert to her, except in the most en dea,ring terms, attaching to her present e.Oll-' - dition all the attributes of purity, pithiness and happiness found in the spirit world. Among the several most febsurd revela tions pretended to be made in the vision re ferred to ; tare is a positive contradiction of a fundamental doctrine which, we opine, only some of the " Spirit" D. D.'s can satisfactorily 'explain—the calibre of the present generation is rather narrow :Or such a task. The Bible teaches that there is no . work nor device beyond the gra've—repent once, after death, is, impossible—all Protes tant christians agree upon this point ; but the Judge, after telling us of h!s> onference with Dr. Franklin, Swedenborg, Sir Isaac Newton, Penn and other . distinguished char ' acters, then describes the condition - of the bad spirits; and concludes with the reclaiming of one of them in the following truly vision- ant strain: • " Amid thelurnmil and coMmion, I saw a good spirit approach. lie was ,one. 1 thought. whose nthusiasm was stronger than his judgment. and he approached that awful society in the rain hope `that he might he able to wean them from their evil ways. The contrast between the I , rightness of his' appearance and the darkness of theirs, was most striking. He seemed like s a solitary star shining amid the hiaelmess i of midnight. His presence was beyond measure offensive to them. They ar rested his progress in crowds. They Met his ad- ValleeS with bold and impudent looks. They re ceived his entreaties with derision, and la=lied his remonstrances to scorn. They insisted he should • leave them, but he refused. . Thee then turned and fled his presence with shouts and - Intlhtcr. All so fled—all save one.. And he was or. e - rved .by that good spirit, prostrate in the dust. The good spirit approached him and lifted him up, and spake words of comfort, lo;foo. , It was one who had begun to pros sin gixslao , s—whosc eves were beginning to open to the evil of his ways, it was-one who had begun to repent Instantly the announcement sped through Hea ven, with the celerity of thought, that a fallen man might be saved; and in crowd s the' good spirits docked to the scene, and welcomed the rising hope that was in him. They took him in their arms, and bore him in triunitdi from that evil place. to- their own happy ma n s ion s . There an apartment was Lassigaed to him ;. and'while he was not progresised vough yet to associate with those who had redeemed him, he was at least secure from the intrusion and influence of his former unhappy companions. There he. is new, attended by that enthusiastic good spirit, with-a humility, a gentleness, a kind ness and patience. to be found. alas! only in Ilea- Yen. The.promPtings of the despatr of that un happy one are soothed ; the waywardness of his • temper is patiently endured, and lits new-born as pirations for good are cheered and borne along. It is a parent lA-eh:on - A.l3g rita return of a prodigal child. It is a mother nursing' eternal life an infant immortal.

DITLITARY ASYLVjG SCOTT ON THE The Hon. Jon M. BOTTS, a delegate from Virginia to the Whig National Convention, has written a letter to the Richmond dated Washington, May 3d, in which he thus speaks ofan interview he had that morn ing with GEN. SCOTT in relation to his pub licly " defining his position" on the_Corn promise : " I had a very 'long, illx and full interchange of views with him, and I foetid his position to Le pre eisely this in reference to writing, ; 'he is differently advised by friends North' and South (whosi , cent'. svls are entitled to consideration) to write, and not to write; a large majority, including many from the South, urging him to remain silent. This con dition of things embarrasses him not a little, as his individual preference would be to publish hil'iews at large, while he does not feel himself at liberty, in his prevent position, to take the bit between his ' teeth, in disregard of the advice of much the lar ger portion of his friends from both sections of the country.

Under the circumstances mentioned, he has come to the conclusion (and I ucelinc to think wisely) that the true course for him to pursue is to rathiish no thing, unless he shall he, the nominee, when, - 11 the convention - shall adopt a course that will ninke his acceptance necessary, or otherwise afford hint the opportunity, he will speak out freely anti fdll.y. and this would place him, in my opinion. in a more de %Veil position than if he Were to permit _himself now to he bellied into writing to receive the nomi tion. A BAD BUSINICSIS HABIT. Business transactions, like good morals, of ten suffer from the insidious encroachments of bad habits. They frequently begin in the veriest trifles, but by indulgence soon grow to monstrous nuisances. A serious inconve nience to the public has arisen within the laSt few years in this county, and, we pre-, sume, also, elsewhere, from the habit of Tax-Collectors and others entrusted with pub lic funds, disposing of the same in some in vestment, where it is impossible to get' at them when wanted. The consequence is a general inconvenience-, and sometimes con siderable speculation. It is necessary to is sue orders, which pass from hand to hand, discounted more or less at every transfer,. while all the time" the Collectors are making the best possible personal use of the cash. The Borough School Board has long suffered in this way, and now, instead of being obliged to levy an extra mill, as tax, for school pur poses, they would be able to reduce the rates from one-half to one mill, if the funds could be had, which justly belong to the %ord. The practice of Collectors making safe in vestments of their money, no dolt hi, origi nally began very innocently, and Might be continued, with perfect impunity, if the li cense were properly restricted ; but the man ner in which it is now done is too gross an injustice toward the public to be toltiOted any longer—it ,ought to be stopped at once, or such conditions imposed as would reader the collected funds always available, when requi red. We propose publishing every such de reliction-hereafter, and we shall be glad to have the cases reported whenever and wher ever they occur. V" . IMPORTANT LE GA!.
