officer in the Board. The duplicate goes into
his hands, and the Board ceases to have any
further control over it, except by due course
of law, which is slow and tedious. The
Board are now suffering severely through
defalcations, and it is of the utmost itnpor :

THE MAILS.
Yesterday morning's mails, from Philadelphia,
went on to Pottp.tille, and those for the latter place
were thrown out here. This sort of thing is getting
to be quite too common to he borne with patience
any longer, and we hope our worthy Po.t-master
wilt make report to " head-quarter•," so that the
authors of the neglect may be' called to account.—
Rrading Gazette of
Amen, say we, most heartily. We noticed
in last Saturday's Journal the lailure of the
Philadelphia mail on the day previous, but
did not know how to account for it. The
mistake, as the Ga - iette has it, it strikes us,
must have resulted from sheer carelessness.
We have had so many complaints from our
sulArribers. of 'late, especially those who re
ceive their papers by the Way Mail between
this and Philadelphia, that the ineoveniente
has become intolerable. One instance in point
-a friend at Valley FOrge, whohas been tak
ing the Journal for some trine, wrote to us the
other day to discobtinue his paper,
,hereafter—
ia.tead of receiving the Journal regularly
every Saturday morning by the down train,
it is almost invariably carried on to Phila
delphia, and he can only get it by the return
Way Mail on Monday, and sometirnes,as
late as Tuesday. Similar complaints are
also madefrotn other quarter's. •
It is equally unpleasant to us as lb" any
body else to be obliged to find fault is this
way, but the duties of Mail officers are too
importacit to the general public convenience
to suffer aay dereliction to go unnoticed—
prompt business depends, in a great measure,
now-a-days, upon prompt Mail commuoica
tions—they, in their turn, uirou efficient offi
cers, and Uncle Sam generally_ pays well
enough to have gopd employees.
TEMPERANCE IN TUE EAST;
Maine set the example on the Liquor ques.
tip and Rhode Island and Massachusetts
Wave not been slow in following in her foot
qeps. The truth is the people are taking
hold of this matter and they seenidetermined
everywhere to carry it through: In Ithode
Island, for instance, the Legislature. prey'.
GUS to the last, refused to 'pass the Maine
Law—the consequence was - the members
were marked, and when their successors as
sembled, almost the first act passed after the
opeoing of the session, was this identical
iass, so plainly and so powerfully was the
opidion of the people expressed in the choke
of a new Legislature.
Governor BouTwam., of Massach use; ts, has
evidently " put his foot in it." Of the two
bills passed by the Legislature, he was forced
at last to sign the most obectionable one—
that refusing to submit the question to a vote
of the people. Of course, everybody under•
stands . perfectly well that his objection. on
this ground, was a mere subterfuge to avoid
giving his signature and thus to defeat the
measure. Hi has, therefore, arrayed the
Temperance men against him, and we are
sine the opposition.. can never become his
friends, slier stopping short their grog, with
out giving them the shadow of a hearing—
to, we take his Excellency stands in rath
er a.hot place,.between two such fires.
We doubt whether the Governor; bow
er strong his personal opposition to the
4W may be, would have•assumed the re
,Tonsibility of rejecting the first bill, but that
by so doing he hoped to defend the for
luta hope" of his political constituents. He
has thus necessarily done the . very things
Lich he wished most to avoid, vi?., made
a political question of the matter in that
:'rate, and in reality greatly advanced the
_ante of Temperance—a shrewd politician
ruly, but a most pitiable specimen of Ere
utive wisdom for the good of any CQUILTIOn•

The Grand Lodge of Petillaylvania, of this

transacted. They refused to recognise the

ordered that the charters be demanded front
all Lodges engaged in the enterprise. Fif
teen large and prosperous- Lodges, which
have been active in -the matter, are, therefore,
liable to suspension by this decision: , It may
yet cause considerable, difficulty, and, per

Lodge persist in its determination, the sus

much of it profitably invested.

The subject of
. burning Anthracite Coal in our
National Steamers', with a view of avoiding Spars
taneous Combustion, has attracted the attention
of our Government for several years past, and after
repeated experiments, Mr. &renter, the Engineer
in chief of the Navy, has made a Report to :the
Navy Department, in which be strongly recom
mends its use for National Steamers fitted with
iron I boilers , as bein , g more economical, and entire
ly free from smoke and accidents from Spontane
ous Combust i en,t6 which some kinds of Bituminous
Coal is peculiarly liable. We have not seen the
report, but we find the following statement in the
Philadelphia Ledger with regard to it :
"His conclusions are founded upon actual experi
menti'm our war-steamers; and he intends, with
the permission of the Department, to continue these
experiments, to see whether anthracite may not he
used advantageously under copper boilers, bitumi
nous coal being generally considered less injurious
to such boilers, and, therefore, used in the service
in preference. He turtbeeree ommends to the Bu
reau of Yerds and Docks the use of anthracite in
the several navy-yards. and especially for t he - eneine
of the dry-dock at the New York navy-yard. This
recommendation' is important to the interests of
Pennsylvania,imd the day is probably not far dis
tant when anthracite will he Ivied exclusively for
purposes of locomotion in our steamers end upon
our railroads. An intetTestim experiment is now
being made with anthracite upon the Reading Rail
road, on a locomotive which has been built, espe
cially adapted to the use of that kind of coal.'
Our readers will recollect that ■ fen , years ago
when this paper first suggested the idea that the
Steamer President was probably burnt by the sponta
neous combustiotrof her Coal, it was ridiculed, at
the time, and even - Captain Hoskin, of the Brit
ish Navy, and Commander of one of.the Atlantic
Steamers, published a card in reply to our article, in
which be declared that such a thing as a vessel ta
king tire by the spontaneous combustion of her Coal
was unknown in the British Navy. Since the mul
tiplicity of the Ocean Steamers, and the numerous
accidents arising from this cause, the . public- are
now satisfied that many kinds of bituminous Coal
stored in the hold of vessels will ignite,and although
the Coal Bunkers have been divided into numerous
apartments, and tubes - introduced to circulate air'
into the muses of Coal, the danger of ignition, on
long voyages, has not yet been removed.
The freights from Richmond have advanced a
shade during the 'weer to New , York and Boston,
and Vessels still remain scarce. •

There are two very plain looking, yet pretty Piano

The truly wonderful and remarkable cures that
have come under our immediate observation, have
more ilidn ron•lneed us that Doctor Dull is a °sear
man, and that Ala Fluid Extract of Sarsaparilla is the
~,,, st valuable combination of 'vegetable extracts that
the science of chemistry has yet produced. All 'me
rest to the Doctor In his new enterprbe, nay we.—
Louisville Cowrie, .
We agree with our neighbor of the Courier. that
Doctor Bull is a great many, and his Sarsaparilla a
nansves MEDICIN6 and We'are fully emtvlnced that
the Doctor, with his Sarsaparilla, will create a far
more enthusiastic excitement East than Barnum did
with Jenny Lind. We would not have our readers
ro understand us as classing the Doctor and his Sar
saparilla with Barnum and Jenny Lind, because all
who spend their dollar for a bottle of Bull's Sarsapa
rilla will get its equivalent; and we have hsard It
slily . hinted, that many, after hearing the divine Jen
ny, and finding thgliporket minus Damien to twenty
dollars, thought it was paying pretty dear for the
WHISTIR. One objection we have to Bull's Sarsapa
rilla, and 6NLY ONE—it is so exceedingly pleagant to
the taste. and invigorating to the system, that, once
in the habit of using it, it Is equal to smoking floe re
villas, chewing Langhorne's best, or drinking Walk

of the Louisville Jourmal, in the following liatteting
notice:—
There is no doubt in the World of the greatness of
Doctor Bull, and the'excellence of his Sarsaparilla.—
Some of the most aeleritiac physicians in lbo city
have applauded the Sarsaparilla, and. what Is a great,
deal better, the million applaud it too. It Is having a
tremendous sate. The celebrated Jayne has, from
the prolits of his, medicine, built a granite palace in
Philadelphia, seven stories rhigh r anil Dr. hull, if be
chooses, can very soon build one iWiera9 high as that.
It Is, we are told, very difficult for hint to walk thro'.
our streets at all, as be Snits himself arrested, at eve
ry step, by grateful men and women, many of whom
have travelled from great dirtaneesto look upon their
benefactor, and to bless him for their wonderful re
storation to health. The Doctor. with all his estraor
dimity merit, Is very • modest and 'retiring ; yet we
trust that the Eastern cities will, in Justice to them
selves, give a fitting reception to the distlngutahed
man who has made as glorioui a campalgnagainst hu
man diseases as General- ScolCmade against the

NOTICE TO 'FEMALES
John Bull's Sarsaparilla Is one of the greatest fn.
male medicines now la existence. in those numerous
case. whets the constitution is debilitated, the ner
vous energy is lessened, when the efforts of nature
are weak and deficient. or are profuse and over
wrought, when the face is pale and tolotless, the
strength feeble and yielding, the -spirit troubled and
depressed, the health broken., mind shaken, and con
eminently, the happiness destroyed—then Bull's Sar
saparilla is a sovereign remedy. It assists Nature in
the performance of her duty; braces therwhnle sys
tem, renews permanently the natural energies, re
moves obstrutttons, checks excesses, creates pore and
healthy blood, and Imparts health and happiness.—
Were Ladles generally to adopt the use of this medi
cine. we would see fir Imo sufesing.disease, and
unhappiness, among them.' than .now este; health
would take the place of disease. the ,rosy cheek
would succeed the' pallid face we should hays
smiles instead of tears,and perhaps a long life. in
stead of one cut short by disease, or made miserable
by continual suffering and affliction. At that critical
period termed "the tarn of life." which is often at
tended with so-much danger, Hull's Sarsaparilla is
found to exert a most beneticialeffect. All ladies ap
proaching this crisis should be apprised of this fact,
and avail themselves of this voluble medicine..
A BEAUTIFUL CLEAR SKIN.
How - we all admire a clear, beautiful white skin,
and a rosy catered cheek! How often do we see per
sons not possessing this desideratum. "on devonsly
to be wished," resorting to cosmetics, lotions, wash
es, paints, and coloring materials, to remote them to
a semblance of what disease hi m deprived them of.
and that, too. wan great injury oche skin.

diseased matter from the blood, making it pure. heal

day. more particularly the general movementp of the
people on the various stlhjects it professes to discuss,

N 0.113 INTR nEsTS.—A caucus, consisting of the Iron
rowers of Pennsylvania. headed by Ex-Governor
Porter, all the BucrisNArt members from -Pennsyl
vania but one, arii.l the interest of alternate section
grant's for the construction of State Railroads,. was
held, and propositions made and rigreed,to,- for dir
tying all the land bilk now before Congress, and
suhstitutin7 home valuations for the present system
of levying doges.
This would increase the tarete . nt tariff by about
2.5 per cent., that is, it would add 10 pet cent. to 30
percent. ad Pa/tweet, and increase taxation by about
twelve millions of dollars per annum. As a.conse
quenee of 'this agreement, the Missouri Railroad
Bill passed this morning. Let us Fee whether
spun will now pay Pennsylvania in nun. Suppose,
to-morrow, or the day after One of the . New Eng

to attend the caucus, spurned the proposition with

- ONPIUS!.ON AHONGI THE fePIIIIITS.
The 'Baltimore Democrats lately onstilted
the spirits" as to the political fate of Gen.
CASs, and werecomforted with an immediate
reply that , he was alive nd kicking, and well
to do in the coming cimpaign—in'shon'that
he was the man for the people. The table,
made use of as the "medium" of Communi•
cation, jumped clean off its legs, atmouneing
this important fact. By a' singular coinci
dence, the 'General's friends in Ketaucky re
sorted to similar sources of inspiration for
knowledge and comfort, but, unhappily,
with a diametrically opposite result.. The
Louisville Journal chronicles the fact
There has been some dispute among the'news
papers as to whether Crnaeral Cask is politically
dead or not. We are .able' to announce authorita
tively that he is. At a latelvisit to the Spirit Rap=
peri we thought- of General Cars, and inquired
whether the spirit or ghOst of the person in our
mind was pre4nt. The response aistne, '
We asked him what he died of ; and he informed
iv= that he died of Old Fogybm. We *mired if he
was happy; and he said that the noise and confu
..ion' were so great that he:eould not answer." - .
We shouldn't wonder, it a set oLspirit del
egates were specially sent for at the Conven
tion next week, to settle this perplexing en
igma. But remember) Macbeth; General,
and, be careful how you trust any of them,
gray or white.
CU - MINESOTA.-A correspondent of the
Albany Registerovriting from Minesota says,
it is a singular fact that the ordinary field
birds, so common in old Settlement's, ;Ind also
the honey hee, unknown there before, have
migrated thither with' civilized Man. Tfie
Indians say that the rattlesnake follow' in his
wake also. Be that as , it may, while they

7- THE Boszott iournal saye The
main Cochituate water, pipe, which- passes
through Congress street, burst Wednesday,
A. M., (about the time, the Governor's veto
message burst upon the Massaclnisetts Sear
ate,) flooding the cellars to the neighborhood,
stopping steam engines, and brriging our
own press to a stand still. Some wag hal
suggested that - the buisting at the Water
pipe at the announcement of a veto on the
Liquor bill, was like the crying out of the
stones in the street at an act of astounding
wickedness."
00" A YOUNG woman', says the Philade!.
phia Argus, employed at the mint, who had
been deaf and dun?‘ for several years; occa- ;
aioned by scarlet/ fever, a few days ,since,
while engaged at her usual occupation, ex
claimed; .‘ Oh, I believe I can speak." The
astonishment of those in the apartment with
her was so great that one of, the temalei
fainted, and most of them were surprised be
yond measure. She has since entirety - re
covered her speech. ; ;
07* TiE NEW tom gold dollar is now out.
It is about the size of a' dime, andlariog an
open centre of l / 4 .nearly the size . of the present w
coin. On the one side is theword iDollaar,'
under which is a wreath, and on . the other
side 'United States of America, 1852.". We
think the coin a decided improvement' on the
one now in use, as It is not so likely, to be
given out for another, as is freqUently now:
the case. It will doubtless become popular,
and supersede the old dollar, as wart as put

in circulation. "
