OUR DIFFICULTY.
We have just learned from Washington
that ihe Post Office Department has offered
the Reading Rail Road company $14,550 the
full pay allowed by Congress for seven days
service in the Third Class, and only requir
ing the Mail to be carried six days. The
Company, we learn, ask $2OO a mile, which
would give $18,600 for 93 mites. Deduct
one-seventh for Sunday service, and it leaves
$15,946, making a 'difference of only $1,397
between the Department and the Rail Road
Company. We can hardly think it possible
that the community will be permitted to
soffer their present inconvenience long, for so
small a difference between the parties.
. The Philadelphia Mail now leaves this
place at 4 o'clock, in the afternoon, instead
of . 8 A.M. Letters for places along the line
must be mailed by 3 o'clock- 7 thoge for Phil
adelphia by 3i. The clidnge is more favor
able to the business community here, though
so far as our newspapers are concerned, we
are worse off than before.
NEW IIA:fIPSIIIRE'S CLAIMS;
Gen. PIERCE possesses all the elements of-popu
larity, and his selection is a compliment to New
Hampshire, of which that small but uniformly Dem
ocratic State is welt worthy.—Bost. Post.
.A very pretty paragraph—but is New
Hampshire so "well worthy" of, furnishing
a President to the United States, as here rep
resented The Albany Journal O:Kihatically
answers thus :—"New Hampshiiiis the very
last State in the Union which shiitild be hon
ored by a special compliment from any party.
We have nothing to say against either the
intelligence or morality of her people; bill
,we deny their Democracy. No community
with a particle of pure Democracy in its
composition, or entitled to the political re
•'apect of others, would tolerate the odious,
proscriptive and intolerant religious test
which holds its place in the Constitution of
New Hampshire. Was it tlus feature in the
-fundamental law of " this small but tini
lorMly Democratic State" which rendered
her especially deserving the complimentary
matice of a Democratic National Convention 7
If so, it is' an insult to the People, of the
Union, and to every true Democrat through
out;. the world. Out of New Hampshire,
this religious test is as odious as all who
,sanCtion it should be." ,
OCnrsu OR FIGITT.—The late squabble be
sweat the British and American, fishermen,
on the New Brunswick coast, seems to have
excited the Yankee spunk of our people all
over the country,-especially in Congress,
the belligerant spirit of the Locofoco mem
bers is quite terrific. We observe, however,
that Senator Hamlin from Maine does not
seim to'apprehend any difficulty with Eng
land,
about the fisheries. - We are of the
same opinion. England could hardly be
kicked into a war with this country, so long
as Locofocoism is thiowing upwaids of :fif
ty millions of dollars info her coffers gnat:ally,
under the Tariff of 1846. Nor does the blus
tering of Locofocoism in the Senate amount
to anything further than excuse togrant
greater concessions to England. We all recol
lecr,ltheir braggardism about Oregon—"s4 40
or fight," when they ingloriously backed out
and took
_what England offered. Already
are the New Brunswick phpers elaitning the
'privilege of Free Trade, between the Colo
nies and the United, States, as a _ basis on
Nibich•to settle the difficulty between the two
countries. It is'therebare fortunate that we
have a Whig President and Secretary of
State, who will always maintain the honor
and dignity of the country at all hazards
Without blustering, and who will not submit
to anything that is wroeg.
Nrw•Locomo.tivris.—A mammoth lo
comotive has recently been built at Trenton,
for the!Canderi and Amboy Railroad. It
weighs 30 tons and is of 350 horse-power.
The manner of communicating the power to
the wheels, and, also,of heating I h e water,be
fore it enters the boiler, is upon a new plan.
-We, also, notice that the English have
lately been trYing a new tind oeLocomotive.
called the "Air-Locomotive," simi/ar to that
upon which Captain Erricson has, for some
time, been. engaged. The motive power is
.rarefied sir—its pressure on the piston -being
doubled by an increase of -degrees of
heat, a very small quantity of !fuel answer
ing this fait purpose.
O:7DELEGATE ELECTIONS.-Our friends
Muit not forget the Delegate Election next,
Saturday. Every district will of course be
represented in the County Convention—but
it is important that the people should turn
out at the primary elections, and select per
sons for delegates, who will fairly- represent
their views and wishes:
A little attention to these elections by the
voters in the respective distrirts will remove
many causes of complaint, alter the nomina
tions are made.
0714R.GE FEE.—Senstor Cooper is to re
ceive a tee of 54,000 from the State of Ma
ryland for his services in the case of the
Christiana rioters. the amount by direction
of the Maryland legislature, is to be paid out
of the forfeited recognizancel of William L.
Chaplin, who it will be recollected. was ar
rested for aiding the escape of slaves.
trnioNoß TO THE BAH OF PITTSBURG.-
In Pittsburg it is stated that every practising
lawyer of any character- and standing; of
all parties, has signed a petition in favor DI
the passage of the Maine Liquor Law. Such
a Bar is SO honor to the State.

Eti" nif - Clay Obsequies, and Clay Maw!
rneni.—The 'demonstration, in this place, on Mon
day last,in honor bf Hertzf CLAY, does the highest
credit to the publisjiirit of our citizens. The Pro
cession comprised the Military, Masonic and Odd
Fellows' Lodges, Sons and Cadets of Temperance,
Fire Companies and other associations of the county
—they numbered, in all, upwards of Sixteen taindred.
The citizens did not join in the line, as proliosedby
the Committee of Arrangements, on account of the
rain. This also prevented the attendance of many
'members, who would have , otherwise joined the
ranks of the several companies or societies to which
they belonged. The 'weather was very unfavora
ble for any public display—rain fatting almost con
tinually from 8 o'clock in the nierning till 1 in the
afternoon_ Early in the morning, peliple , began
pouring into town from all quarters—our streets
have not been so crowded for many a long dar, in
deed, we doubt whether the Borough limits ever
contained many people at one time..
THE PEOCESSION
/14 about 11 o'clock, the line of processton was
`formed, as previously prescribed by the Order of
the Chief Marshall, Col. Jxo. P. Hoaawr, and pro
ceeded by the route designated. Business was
.suspended, and the stores, Sz.n. closed abbost the
enure day. The houses, in the streets thrbtlgh
which the procession passed, were mostly draped .
In mourning—some with remarkably good tatte. , —

To speak of HENRY CLAY aright, these are ne
cessary; for there was in his giant intellect, his
comminiding
,person, .his imp sioned eloquence,
and his iinpressive manner, that which the imagi
nation cannot catch, and it it could, no language
could aikiluately convey, unless the tongue were
touched by the electricity of his own ardour.
These privileges, Fellow-Citizens; have not been
ours—we, like the early eastern worshippers of the
sun, have gazed delighted upon his glory, while
the great: source of the light and heat we felt to
emanate from him,was ever beyond the scrutiny of
our vision.
We hnve never been able to measure that ocean
of thougbt, that was peculiarly heti:min, but have
been content to stand upon the shore and gather
those costly pearls which every pnisation of his
mighty intellect has brought within the reach of
every one of us—with those we haye corn* today,
to join tit that deep feeling which prompts, as by a
general impulse. the outpowenng of ; our sorrowing
Citizens who surround us,"and to throw our poor .
mite into the treasury that is to enrich his name for
ever.
The only regret we feel is that it is so unworthy,
of rhe greet object to which it is given.

Oh ! it was like the children of Israel carrying
the bones of Joseph from Egypt to their last resting
place in Canaan, that when his tongue had ceased
to give tmeranee to Divinely inspired promises 6f
delivelance, his dead body carried in the midst of
their host might preach to them in the eloquence of
death,the certainty of every promise made to them,
so when the remains of our great statesman were
making their last pilgrimage to the grave, amid the
thirty-one tribes of America, followed by the sable
procession, the measured step, and the funetil dirge,
solemn as eternity, tind yet sweet as the voice of
Angela, all spoke to us in language , more impressife

Courageous, and inspired every heat with a firm
determination to have li6erty or death
If Providence bad gifted us with the power of
irmuferring the Dimness of living things to the can,
vast, I know of nothing in the whole range of his
tory, that would give finer play to genius, or loot
more beautiful in painting, than a representation of
that scene in Co ngress, when, as the great question
of war or subm ission was about to be deci de d,' his
noble form was seen towering above his knows,
and m tones tremulous,with the energy of patnot-_
ism,he hurled defiance at her power,andexclaimed,
" Haughty as she is, we have once triumphed over
her, and It we do not listen to the councils of tim
idity and despair, we shall again prevail. For
such a cause with the aid of Providence, we must
come out crowned with success, but if we fail, let
us, fail like men, let us lash'ourselves to our gallant
tars, and expire together in one common struggle,
fightingfor Free-Trade and Sailors! rights.' The
etTect was electric. The derision was reached, our
canvass .was spread to the breeze, our shores
bristled with ten thousand bayonets, and on know
the result, it is written on the emblems of vict ory
,
wrapt as they are in the emblems of death,tliat sur-
round us to -day.
And when this war was closed by honorable
treaty, in which he was a prominent actor, he re
turned from Ghent, to renew his labors in accom
plishing that great scheme of internal improvement
and protection to home industry which had been
growing. up to maturity in his own mind, and
which, when accomplished, was to make his coun
try both wealthy and independent.
His eye, taking the vast area of the continent
within its range, saw its resources, and his eik
caught the hum ot a swarming population which
should at no distant date, fell the western wilder
ness, and dot its fruitful plains with towns and
cities, and border its rivers and lakes with the.
fruits of energetic industry, until from the Atlantic
to the Pacific our land should be converted into one
great workshop, where nature and art should blend
in one common interest, end tend to one glorious
destiny. To accomplish this, he labored with un
tiring industry, and with distinguished success, so
that, through the scheme of which he was the eu
thor;bur rivers tia`Ve been made navigable to their
sources, canals havebeen opened in our plains, our
mountains tunneled, and the vast circumference
bound to the centre by . iron sinews that bear the
weight of a nation's industry. And to-day, the
rattling of the power-loom, the music of the boat
man's horn, the rush of an army of railroad cars,
and the perpetual puff of the locomotive, form the
best records of that genius that conceived, and the
hand that put this mighty machinery in motion, and
threw around it the power of a protection that en
nobles labor, and makes our merchants the princes
of tbe earth. •
Bin while exemplifying his-high-toned patriotism
in efforts, for his own country, the cause of suffer
ing humanity everywhere met a response in his
heart, and found in him an advocate. HIS Bynumthies could not be limited by a continent, though it
were his own. And when the Spanish Colonies,'
in imitation of our example, determined to break
the iron yoke from their neck, he was the Grit to
advocate their recognition as a free people : when
Greece, crushed by the tyrant heel of despotism,
invoked a return of the spirit of their ancient war ,
nor% to nerve their arm in the contest for liberty,
and looked from their ,erndle of republicanism to
the last child that was rocked in it, for her friend.
ship ind enceouragement, Clay and Webster, the
David ar d Jonathan of America, stood almost alone
to plead her cause, and with an eloquence that swept
opposition like the hot Was t of the desert, they
palsied resistance, maintained the rights ot their
brethren beyond the seas, and cheered them with
assurances s f a nation's fraternal regards.
Africa, too, long in chains and in darknessoduired
the radiance of his enlarged philanthropy, for he
stood 'prominent in that scheme of Colonization
which provides a place Where the Hark man may
be himself again. His fostering care was first ex
tended over the neueleur, of what is now a Repub
lic., employed by Providence as the agent through
which to christinnizei the long-neglected sons of
Ham, and elevate then . ' to that position in their
own land whien they can never enjoy in this. And
when the intelligence reaches them that their great
father is dead, their hearts will sob with as deep
, a feeling as has been felt by any of us, and they
will build his monument on the so-shore, as we
shall build it on the mountain brow.,
Go where you will, you will find the foot-print
of the giant, and see the massive works he has
brought into existence and in every quarter of the
Globe his life will continue to exert an influence
for good, when the thrones and crowns of despotism
shall have crumbled to dust.
That wide feeling of 'rev°!talon that is even now
moving in the OM ‘Vorld, like the g‘ithering of a
mighty storm, and mast soon burst in terrific ven
geance on the head.of oppressors, lins gathered its
stiength from our land, and the fires that 'lan light
up their darkest hour and path to glory, bave,been
Luken from altars built and consecrated to liberty by
her,greateat statesman.
It is trite, that great sun has gone down; but his
brightness yet remains, and those scintillations of
beauty that paint the evening sky with the splen
dor of the Northern lights, are eomins up from eve
ry point of the entire.. circle, and, !conning them
selves into one glorious dome, on the summit' of
which shall Nash, in fadeless characters of living
tight, the name of HENRY CLAY.
There was yet another position occupied by him
which. if it is possible to add new lustre to hip ,
jewcll-bright name, must do it : That of the great
prase-mater between party and sectional enemies
—here every feeling of u personal consideration is
fcirgotten, private preferences • and opinions are sac
rificed to Secure the peace and prosperity of the
fiation, his collossal form was thrown into the
breach, and he bore the vengeance of both parties
until he effected a reconciliation—and had it not
been for his bold and• self-sacrificing interposition
in the difficulties of 1833, when South Carolina
was led on by the mail zeal of her people, in her
Millitication movements, to the verge ofa war with
the federal government, the American name would
have been disgraced forever, and the sin of fratricide
in its worst form, would have left a statn.npon our
history which neither time nor eternity would have
obliterated. But when the storm was the highest,
and the sky was the darkest, and the hope of peace
was about to expire, CLAY was seen standing oft
the deck, like the sleeper in the fisherman's boat,
on stonily Galilee. lie spoke to the winds; thro'
his Compromise measures, and there was a great
calm—the danger and diltEculty passed away, and
the Union stands in all its proud proportions.
Often had he thought to retire from public life
to spend the'evening of his days in the retirement
of Ashland, where he might bless his family, till
God should call him hence, but as oft was be called
back, like the patriarch Jac s, to bless -hia chil
dren.
There was yet one great w rk to be accomplish
ed by him, which should ter inate his career, and
shed glery over all the rest+the re-union of a na
tion, separated the second !time by strife which
should never have had an existence. It is still fresh
in the memory of every one of you. and needs on
ly to be referred to. God spared him to accom
plish the work, but the enfeebled sage could not
hear the shock ; the sorrow that seized upon him
drank up his spirits, and`lie ratified the covenant of
union by the sap:nice of himself.. Like the great
leader of. Israel, 'who labored forty years for the
establishment of his: people in the promised land,
and wasrmitted to stand with them in sight of
its beautiful monntains and volleys, and then lie
I down and die on the top of Pisgah, our great leader
and lawgiver, after toiling for thesiame lengthened
period, and accomplishing almOst every wtslt of his
heart, White standing in the presence of all the peo
ple, on the Pisgah of the nation, with hisdying eve
fixed upon a glorious land, prospered and united fry
his efforts, God sent an escort of angels to bear him
from Pisgah to Zion's top.
He has passed away to a better inheritance.—
The, brightest star that ever sparkled in the galaxy
of our national firmament is quenched in death.—.
His extensive experience and almost infallible coup.;
sel will no more be heard in the chambers of state.
But though his eye shall no more fire with concep
tions, tinder which language bends and breaks, nor
shall he be seen walking forth in debate, as the
brightness of morning, yet such is the rich inheri
tance helms lett behind, and the illumination he has
thrown down upon the pathway toglory, 'Eat we feel
as though he were not dead, but that his spirit pul
sates in every bosom as a .guardian angel of those
memorials he has built with his toil and consecrated
with his tear e. Everything around us bears thel
marks of his presence—the stirring energy by
which you are distinguished as a community, in
dicates that presetfre as much as the ornaments of
his own Ashland. So that, if we were sent to re
cord his name on the emblem of his endurance, we
should carve it on the marble, the emblem of im
, mortalitv; and not upon the cypress, the occupant
of the church-yard. ,
Vet the marble may be broken by the blast, or
worn by the waste of time, thei granite and the
iron of this Monument may he reduced to dust, but
•while generations shall succeed each other, as the
waves of the sea :the name of our great statesman
shalt roll on in imperishable majesty, till the events
of time are lost amid the changeless grandeurs of
eternity.
Our institutions are-peculiarly adapted to foster
genius, and while the present furnishes_ great men,
and the future will not be destitute of them ;
nines may roll over us before another will 'arise,
who shall combine all the eharaetefictica of true
greatness, in the same perfection that hedid.

in his presence. and acknowledged his superiority.
None but the father of his country over filled so
large a circamference, and gathered around him
such ardent and undying friendship, and although
Om field of labor assigned to him, differed from that
occupied by the immortal Westin:droll, yet in his
sphere he acted his part with equal fidelity, and
for all those qualities that constitute a great states
man, he stands side by side with the great deliverer
of his country, in all that constitutes a great corn

their labors and beautified by their devotion, then'

COUSEIL-BTONE LAYING
The oration concluded, the ceremonies of hying
the ; cornerstone were begun with an ode, pre
pared for ;he occasion by otir townsman, D. G.
hrtlowa.i, Esq., beautifullysung,by a choir of la-
dies and gentlemen, who had kindly volunteered
theitserviees. Prayer by Rev. A. Levering as R.
W. G. Chaplain. A metallic box, containing a

and hermetierilly sealed, the stone properly adjusted,
[tad Win. B. Poth; r Esq., as R. W. G. M., having
made the necessary 'examination, pronounced the

In thettame of the people of Schuylkill county,
and by virtue of the authority of the R. W. Grand
Lodge of Pennsylvania,, we lay this corner stone,

*ell tried, true; and trusty, and to the memory of

statesman, HENUY CLAY, we dedicate the monu
ment hereafter to be erected thereon. Long may
it remain to perpetuate the memory of this great
man, and to proclaim to the world that Republics
are not ungrateful, but that they know how.to ap
preciate the memory of their distinguished sons.—
But shall this Monument be the only memento of
this illustrious man? The voice of a nation an
swers, No! When time, the destroyer of all things,
shall have done its work, and this proud Monument
ottall be tumbled to the earth, the .memory of the
great man will remain engraven on the hearts of
our children's children, and thousands yet unborn,
will, in connection with our beloved •WASIIINGTON,
with the proud feelings of en American heart, pro
claim the name of HENRY CLAY. -
Then handing the Masonic toi)l.c'to F. llewson,
as Chief Architect, he added:
Chief A'rellitect.-r-We have now laid the corner
stone, our,dutv is thus far performed ; io you; as
the Chief 'Architect, it will belong to rear tipcn

which will be placed the statue of ITErtav CLAY,
may we also look up to, and though at ati humble
distance, endeavor to - emulate the bright example
of patriotism and philanthropy which he has art.
Receive the implemelds of your craft.
To which Mr. H. replied :
• Right Worshepful Grand Alaster.-,The good
work. commenced by the generous people of Schuyl
kill county, and this day entrukted to my cafe, shall
be done, and done. well, in good faith, up to the

tant symbolical meaning.
In the selection of these articles, we significant..
Iv point to the Christian religion—the religion of
the Bible—and the diffusion of knowledge, as the
elementary basis of alt national, as well as indivi
dual and social, character—the chief corner-stone of
every moral edifice.
We,..also, manifest a becoming respect toward
all laCvliilly constituted authorities of bodies, whe
the politic or social, and recognise the great princi
ples of our governmental organization, as the fowls
dation of our .national permanency and future
growth.
As the column shall spring upward in its beauty

py of Him, whom it is intended to honor, so
may our united 'nation rise in strength and great
ness, train the practise of those vtrtues, whose em
blems we here enclose.
The ceremonies were concluded by anethea ode,
elm prepared by Mr. M'Gowan, followed by the
benediction pronounced by Rev. Win. C. Cooley.
SZE=
During the'singing of the„•,first ode,-art openingthe
ceremonies of the corner stone laying, the Sun, for
the first time, that day, suddenly burst through the
clouds and lighted Hp the whole scene with an orn
nous halo of brightness, as though in token of Hea
vett's Pm de upon the generous work. begun by air
patriotic citizens.
The CoMmittee .of Arrangements deserve the
warmest thanks of the people of the Cotlly, for
the manner in which they discharged the duties as
signed them. . Mr. Sillyman, in particular, teemed
perfectly devoted to the object in hind, and so bent
is he upon the erection of the Monument, we almost
believe he would build it himself, rather than have
it fail.
We have no idea of the number of persons that
may properly be considered as forming part of the
day's demonstration .— it is impossible to estimate
them even approximately, as may ladies and gen
tlemen, too, Who were specially attracted to town
by the occasion, did not malre their appearance ei
ther in the street or on the Hill, on acceuht of the
rain. The Procession, large as 'lt waS, would have
reached twice its actual number, we piini4e, had
the weather been fair. A number of gentlemen,
members of the Masonic Order, and OffiFi9r fro*,
Reading, arrivedlo late to be assigned "places.
The Military 'Were accompanied hy_their tisind
music, besides several Brass bands, from Tamaqua,
Tremont and Pottaville,distributed in different parts
of the Procession. '
During the moving . of the Proces.sien, the bells
of the several churches, Court-Honse, tic., tolled;
minute-guns were fired, and / the national colors, dis
played in various places, were suspetrded, at half
mast, throughout the day.
Everything passed off well—without accident or
any oceurreneewludevei to interfere wifir the de
sign of the dernonstratitap---altogether, at will
long be rememberedius a great day in the annals of
Schuylkill County.
11:7'Accident in a Powder e't'
plosion occurred in the Powder Mill of M:
Seltzer Ze• Co., St. -Clair, Tuesday evening
last. Fortunately the workmen were all ab
sent at the time, and no one was hurt. The

Just about this time, two years ago, a simi
lafaccident took place at • this Mill, which
resulted in the instant death of two Orions,
and seriously injured several others. Such

more particularly so, when -Standing so close
