Through- out the year, and, indeed, during the entire time of our occupancy of the Chair editorial, it has been our ox,stant aim"to provide the reading public with a newspaper, worthy of the place •and our people. Our labors, we ure happy to believe, have not been unap preciated, and, with the charaeter i pf the Jour nal well established, we have every prospect of a long and prosperous, official, life. 'The next issue* our paper will be in the enlarged form, previously announced. The Prospectus•will he found in another'eolurrin. We urge this as -a favorable time,for coin manning subscriptions. Progress is the spir it of the age, and white enterprise always meets with its appropriate reward at the hands of a generous people, we cannot stif fer ourselves io fall behind in the race. CHRISTMAS. " Methinks I've cast full' twenty years aside, And am a boy again." According to the Almanacs, " Chriiimas comes btu once is year," and sure enough, in the due course of human events, here it is, welcomed by scores of happy hearts, young and old, and overflowing with good cheer and merriment. • Such seasons are the oases in• the broat_ desert of our life, where we stop awhile to refresh us and renew our preparations for the remainder of the journey. Their annual re currence has been-most wisely ordered, and if appreciated and properly used, the peen , liar enjoyments they bring must be highly beneficial to both mind and body ; for. "Pleasures, or wrong or rightly understood, _ Oar greatest evil, or our greatest good " _ And now, hoping, for our mutual sake, to exchange the compliments of the season with our readers' and friends, on many fu • ture occasions, " ail:terry Christmas to all and to all a good-night." A VALUABLE SUGGESTION Yn the late Grand Jury lieport, which we published last week, it is recommended, as the most feasible means of diminishing the great number of groggeries, now multiply ing so alarmingly in this Region; that the price of Licenses be increased and that Pe titions be forwarded to the next Legislature for an enactment for this purpose. , The suggestion strikes us most favorably, ,and we cordially commend it to the notice of the citizens of the County—not to the-avow ' ed friends of Temperance alone, but to all •Fclasses of our people alike. It is notorious that the Region is, overrun with petty estab lishments, licensed and conducted under the name of Beer and Ale shops, but where in most cases stronger liquors are likesiise sold. It is also common, we are told, to - procure a ' license from the County' Treasurer, ostcnsi• I hly, to sell grocertei, Con tectionaries, &e„ on.. 1 der which disguise liquor is illegally retailed . • in any quantity. It is in such places - that most of the cases of riot, disorder, and often bloodihed, that occupy our Courts, originate, and since other legal regulations have so tar proved inefficient for their suppression, the suggestion of the Grand Jury it most prolia . bly,the best, it not the only means Of reach , ing these crying nuisances. Ibises of public entertainment, for the ac commodatton of boaiders, travellers, &c., are indispensable, but the •lewer of them, the better they can afford to he kept, especially if those that undersell them and take off their - custom be removed. Hence all the landlords, disposed to keep gooehouses, will second this recommendation molt heartily. Their I reputation is often made to suffer by the drunkenness originating in 'the lower order of grog•shops complained of. Hence, it is doubly to the advantage of the better class of - licensed houses in have the interior ones re moved. Another idea occurs to us, in this counect. lion; the imprOpriety of granting licenses to women to sell liquor, for the simple reason that they are unable, in most cases, to pre. serve order about their establishments or quell the spirit of lawlessness so prevalent among the frequenters of such places. In granting • , licenses generally, the Courtspretend to have regard to the character of the applicant,on the • ground of his ability to preserve order and • decent behaviour among his customers ; but no such qualification can be expected in the case of many females, who are so privileged. AIR. KING'S RESIGNATION. HOD: WILLIAX R. KING, (Vice-President elect) tendered his resignation, as President of the Senate on Tuesday last, on account of his Continued ill-health. Mr. Atchison, of Missouri t was chosen to supply the vacancy,. pro-torn. Mr. Ring-has been an efficient and popular officer—his - resignation, especially under the circumstances, seems to be iecei- - ved with general regret among the members. Lithe unfortunate event of his death, be fore his inauguration, it is now a -mooted question as to hoiv the office would be filled. The framers of the Constitution seem not to • have foreseen exactly such a case, and hence there is no express provision for it. The on ly article relating to the subject at all being this: Aar. IL Section 1. 'ln ease 'of the removal of the President from office, or of his death, resin _ nation, or inability to discharge the powers and du ties of the said °Mtn, the saute shall devolve upon the Vice President ;and the Congress way, by law, provide for the case of removal; death, resig nation, orinabihty, both of the ;President and Fire President, declaring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shalfat accordingly un til the disability-be removed, or a President shall be elected- . Where, it is evident, that the removal of both the President and Vice-President is con templated, and not the:lrtce;President atone, the President still living. Present speculations, on the subjet i t are however, not only premature, but Wif, hope entirely,unnecesary—at any rate thelemer• geney, if it must come, will suggest hs melt :remedy,, in time.

From the eyealmenli lately alide in New York with thetrild-boat Ericsson, propelled by 'this newly•invenjed Engine, there is hardly a doubt of its entire steams. 11 1 . .43, the invention wilt justly be regarded as one of . the most tmportast of "the' age, perhaps the greaten-awe the laventica. of 4he Isco• motive. The complete revolution which its introduction must necessarily cause in mo- tire power, both at sea and ,on land, in sta tionary and iomotive Enginm, iswonderful to anticipate—Supplanting- almost entirely the present extens . iveapplieation of steam.— The following are the - advantages claimed for theCalortc Engine, as stated by she New York Home Journal: ' I. The Caloric Engine burns about one-tenth as much fuel as a steam engine ; hence a caloric ship et the largest size may circumnavigate tke globe without stopping to take- is coal; hence, nova sail will be seen on the ocean in fifty years after the success of the new principle is certain ; hence, ma chinery will be applied to a thousand arts which now require manual labor; hence, the possibility of that lonidesiredstatichine-Plaugh: and hence, the rapid coming of that good time when animus manual toil will absolutely cease under the sun. 2. The cost of the Caloric Engine is about the same is the steam engine, minus the cost of the boilers. .; 3. Only one-fourth as rosaY cefele'reee will be required oul2ottritsrea/oric - ahiP a'A are necessary for a steamer. . - 4. Nosmoke whatever will issue trom a Caloric. furnace when anthracite is used, and consequently. no huge, cmsightle smoke-pipe will be necessary, end the rigging will be as clean 23 that of a sailing all. ). There can be no bursting or collapsing abol lers, for the simple reason that :here will be no boilers to burst. The worstaccident that can hap. pen to a' Caloric Engine is for it to slop; nor is watchfulness imperatively required, as in no case can a dangerous accident occur. i el. Owing to the extreme simplicity ot the Calo rie Engine, the wear and teat will be very slight, and the duration of the engineproporticinally long. Although the Ericsson is ncit:yet entirely finished, so that the invention can be fairly , . and fully tested, still it is said to - have alrea dy.surpassed the most sanguine:expectations of its author and friends. Resides, two f sta tionary Engines, on this principle..bave been 1 at work in a factory in New York, for a con siderable time and found to answer the pur pose admirably—hence. from their success, originated the idea, of propelling a boat after the same manner of-motive power. Sever al gentlemen, accordingly, contributed some $300,000 to build a baat of Iwo thousand tons burthen, which they very appropriately called " Ericsson," to tear-the new principle, on a scale that would _he satisfactory to the [ whole world. • It is difficult to give any condensed de scription of this invention that will he intel-i ligible. For , the benefit of our readers, there fore, especially in Ibis Region, where the . subject naturally possesses unusual interest, 4 - we will endeavor to present a comprehen sive summary ofthe principal -features oft the ,Caloric- Engine and their general modus qperandi, at the same time avoiding, as far 1 is possible, a tiresome detail of the minutia' lof the machinery. . , The main parts of the Engine are two Cy- tinders, the Receiver and the Regenerator. Neither boilers nor water are, used. The ry. tinders are distingtiished as the 4 ,' supply" upper) and the '" working" (lower and of larger diameter,) cylinder—Under the latter of which fire is kept. They are connected by One and thesame piston rod, which in its reciprocating motion, opens and closes cer tain valves for the ingress or egress of at mospheric air, the motive agent. This, the, air, is first received into the supply cylinder, when, by the hack action of the piston, it is forced out successively into the receiver and regenerator, iu the latter of which it takes up some, 450 deg. of heat and is then passed into the working cylinder, gaining here again 30 degrees more heat, from the fire before 'mentioned. But atmospheric am heated to 4SO de grees, is expanded to double its original bulk. The same quantity, therefoie, -which filled the supply cylinder will how fill another'of double the capacity.. Suppose, for the sake of alit:qv:mon, that the working cylinder is double the"size of the supply cylinder, and that the area of the piston within the former contains a thousand square inches and -that of the latter but five hundred ; the calcula tion then, according to Hunt's Merchant's' Magazine, is as follows: I ~ The air presses upon this (the upper pistony 1 with a mean force, we will suppose, of about &e -t ven pounds to each square inch; or in other words„ with a weight of 5,500 pounds. Upon the surface `of the lower piston, the heated air ix, however, pressing upward with a like force upon each of its one thousand square inches ';'or,- in other words, with a force of 11,000 pounds. Here, their, is a' form; which, after overcoming the weight -above, leaves a surplus of .5,500 prima', if we 'mike no al- lowance - for friction. This - surplus furnishes the 1 working power of the engine. It will be readily] seen that, after one stroke of its piston is made; it will continue to work: withthis force, so- long as sufficient heat is supplied to expand the air in. the working cylinder to the extent stated; for, so long as the area of the lower piston is greater than that ' of- the upper, and a like pressure is upon every (1 square inch ot each, so long will the greater pis tor. push forward the smaller, es a two pound ~.weight upon one end of a balance will be quite sure to bear down one pound placed upon the oth- I er. We need hardly say, that after toe air in the working cylinder has forced up the piston within it, a valve opens, and es it passes out, the pistons, by force -of gravity, descend, and cold air again rushes into, and ,fills the supply cylinder, as we have before described. In this manner the two cylinders are alternately supplied and discharged, causing the piste°, in each to play up and down, substantially as they do in the steam engine." . The Regenerator, which is the most im portant, ait it is the most ingenious, part of the machinery, is thus described in the same article from which the fait was extracted : r-Tb• i - ' f" Thi s structure s com,posed of wire net, some what like that used in the manufacture of sieves, placed side by side, until the series attain a thick , nets' say of, twelve inches. Through the almost ' innumerable cells formed by the intersection of, thew.Nvires, the air must pass, on its way to the' working cylinder. la passing through these, it is so minutely. subdivided that the particles rompers- I ing it are - brought - Into close contact with the met al which forms the wires. Now, let us suppose what actually Mires place, that the side ot the- re generator nearest the working cylinder is heated [to a high temperature. Through this heated ' sub stance the air most pass before entering the cylin der, and in effecting this passage, it takes up, is is demonstrated by the thermometer, about 450 4eg. of the 480 deg. of heat required, as we before stated, to double its volume. The additional 30 der. ere communicated by the fire beneath the cylinder.— The air has thus become expanded; - it forces= the piston upward; it his done its work—valves open —and the imprisoned air, heated to 480 deg., pass ea from the cylinder; and again enters the regener ator, through which it most pass before leaving the machine. We have said that the side of this in strument nearest the working cylinder is hot, and it should be here stated that the other side is kept cool by the action upon not the air entering in the opposite direction at each up stroke of the pistons. Consequently. as the air from the working cylin der pastas out, the wises absorb its bent SO of that, when it leaves the regenerator, it lets been robbed of it all,ezeept about 30 deg. In oth er wants, as the air plumes Into the working cylin der it gradually receives from the regenerator about 450 deg,. of heat; and as it passes out, 'this is re turned to the wires, and is thus used over and over, the only purpose 01 the fires beneath the cylinders being to supply the 30 deg. of heat we have, men tioned, had that which is lost by radiation and ex-; pension. Extraordinary as this statement may seem, it is neverthetmer incontrovertibly proved by the thermometer to lie quite true. [17 .

The greater part of the vast arched excavation will be inlaid, with strong and substantial masonry. More than halt 91 this masonry wilt be composed of sandstone :well laid in hydraulic cement ; and the remainder will be hard burnt brick. This whole masonry will be 22 inches thick. The Tunnel passes the Allegheny Mountain in Sugar Rtin Gap, and lies partly in Blair and partly in Cambria County. Taking into account the length of the Tunnel and its in terior breadth, and the quantity and solidity of its masonry, it may be regarded as the largest work of the kind in the Untied States. About 400 hands are erpployed upon it. IRELAND. In the late Census Report, we find the fol lowing significant facts respecting.theile-po pulation of Ireland : • With respect to Ireland and the return of 1821. the number of inhabitants at_ that period was, 6.801.827. In 1831, 7.767,401 —lncrease 965,574; rate per cent 14, 19. In 1841, 8,175,124, increase, 407,723; rate per cent. 5,25. In 1851, 6,515,794 ; decrease, 1,659,330, rate per cent. 20. By this state ment we perceive that the population of Ire land increased from 1821 to 1841 at the ave rage rate of about.one per cent. per annum, while a decrease of 1,659,330 from 1841 to 1851, indicates - a most appalling diminution ot;popnlAtion amounting to two per cent,per annum, or 20 per cent. tor . the entire ten years,. a reduction amounting to the total emigration from the whole United Kingdom from 1839 to 1850. 137" MANUMITTED AND FUGITIVE SLAVES. -=The late Census Report gives some inter estiog statistics in regard to the number of slaves manumitted and escaped, during the year ending June, 1850. The latter amount. in all to 1011; the former, to 1467. Mary. land - loses the most, 279; then Kentucky, 96; and then Loutiliana, 90. Of. the manumit ted.

THE - SEASON is now approaching when ma ny of our renders; (as is , usual at this reason of II the year,) may be-atilicteti with Coughs stlyl Colds which', tf neglected, or improperly treated, are apt to terminate in Consumpion. We don't say that every Cough or Cold has terminated in Consump tion, but we do say that nearly nine-tenths of the cases ... of Cfusuniption hive proceeded from this very cause, and it you have a (rough and •neglect or treat it Improperly, perhaps you too may be ad tied to this list ; therefore, we say do not let it run on, but arrest it immediatelic a , s and, for which,. pur pose, you should. use no Other mplicine but Dr..r. W. Cooper's Indian Vegetable Cough or Con sumptive Syrup. It hasimdoubtedly, saved many from an untimely grave,and for the cure of Coughs, Colds and Consumption, mfe 'do conscientiously re commend It, and its use , has, also proved it to be the very best medicine for the cure of these discs; see Which has ever been discovered—therefore, we again say, if yon haven cough get - one bottle of this Syrup, and give it a trial before you try anything else. The price is °ni l + 75 cents a bottle,mnd one bottle, if taken to time,imay save you many dollars, - besides months or years of suffering; and if, un fortunately, you have already become the victim of this terrible disease, (Consumpiion,) upon this med icine, only, you may rely fora cure. We. do not say that it never has failed in curing any case of Consumption, but we do say, upon the best author ity. that it has cured many cases of it after they had been given up by Physicians, which is testi fied to by Physicians themselves. For'the convenience of the public, JoHN S. C. Asarite, of this place hat been appointed Agent for the sole of this medicine, and•ol whom the gen ume may'alwais be had. We are requested to ay that if there is any person or persons in this County who wish an agency of this medicine, by addressing an order to the proprietor, (C. P. Hewes, of West Chester, Chester County, Pa.,) they will be supplied. Yours, drc., 49.41 C. P. HEWES. CONSUMPTION.—Though often hereditary, it ,arises more frequently from causes which few medical writers have yet noticed: The higher classes are more subject to it than the lower, who have to labor for their support by exercising their arms, by which means the viscera of the chest and all the organs of the stomach are developed.— These are the regions where till the vital organs are seated. The upper classes, on the other hand, generally exercise their lower limt4, which can Sever be done but at the sacrifice and - expense of the upper extremities and chest. Alas! consump tion and premature deaths are .but too often the results of their error. Wigar's Beltran of Wild . Cherry is the great remady for Consumption, and the best meshcine known to man for Asthma of every stage, Liver Comptainty Bronchitis, Influenza, Coughs, Colds, Bleeding Of the Lunge, Shortness of Breath, pains and weakness in the side, arc., and all other di seases of the Pulmonary Organs. - (From the Cincinnati DAILY TIMES I We would advise our readers who ate labor ing under an erection of the Inns, to make im mediate-trial of this truly excellent medicine.— The, meet intelligent and respectable families of our city have adopted it as a favorite family Med icine; and persons predisposed to Consumption who have used it, speak in the highest terms o its efficnof.*. • None genuine unless signet' I.
