Penn Pcriar !tit. 'l.airalkt a re-
cent American celebration at'Bordentown, N.
J., a speaker sstatetithat Mr. Barringcr t U.S.,
Minister at the COurt of Spain, had heea in
formed by a papal Nuncio, previous to its an
nouncement in this 03 untry, that, Hon; 'kr.
Campbell, of Pennsylvania, a Roman Catho
lic, was to be appointed Post Mailer General..
tetpasian Ellis made the same statement at
Washington, and Hon. Kenneth Raynor` says
disg#ctly that Mr. Barringer informed him of
the circumstance. It is *beyond the shadow
of a doubt, that President Pierce on the oc
casion of his election to the position he so
miserably occupies, bargained for the Roman
Catholic votei and it is apparent he did So,.
not through potiticians, but the hierarchy of
' that church. This is the most dangerous ele
ment in Papacy, that Americanism seeks to
crush here, and ,what citizen, possessing a
tithe of common sense, does not perceive the
necessity of checking the - influence of a des
-Footle religious organization, when that influ
ence deliberately tends to bargain and sales,
with mediocre and demagogue aspirations
for the first office . in the gift of the people?—
Do we err under the circumstances, in oppo
sing the encroachments of a power, which,
while wearing the garb of Christianity, con
,ceals a political element inimical to the best
interests of our common country? We think
not. -
THE SRAM DEMOCRACY FACTION'S OF. THE
Coux.rr.—With our coteinporary, the Gazette,
we admit that the Cake &alai is corrupt.—
It is evidently growing beautifully less day by
day. While making the admission r however,
we cannot perceive, or at least have no evi
dence that the leaders of the faction to which"
the editor of the Gazette is attached, are a
whit better than their Cake opponents, The
leaders of both factions are most corrupt, and
the principles which actuate them are becom
ing properly appreciated by the people, as
their features become more familiar. Our
deliberate opinion is that the leaders of both,
are a 'disgrace to the County, and a blight
upon the prosperity of our Region. Both are
allied to the Rum interests, and exercise that
influence in the County calculated to corrupt,
debauch and degrade the community.. Under
existing circumstances, we really must decline
the honor (I) of allying ourselves with either
faction, until we perceive some symptoms of
reform in their composition. These are our
Opinions of the Cake and Straub cliques. The
Gazette'eau make any deductions from them
it pleases.
THE HARVEST AND CROPS.-.---FTOIR every'
State in the Union, accounts speak •in the
most glowing terms of the prospects of a har
vest, superior in productiveness to any that
has ever preceded it. The crops are not only
larger in proportion to the acre, but Ole quan
tity of land under cultivation is at least one
fourth
greater than it was last year. All
kinds of fruit promises an abundant yield.=
The peach and apple_, orchards every where,
are heavily laden with their fruitage. This is ;
cheering, remarks the Smentific American, asp
it offers a prospect of great manufacturing
prosperity, for it is evident that art, science,
and literature are dependent entirely upon the
surplus prodhcts of the earth. In all coun
tries where the inhabitants have to struggle
lith nature for the bare necessities of life, art,
science, and literature are unknown.
ILLINOIS.—The Illinois State Convention
of the Know Nothings had its session at Chi
cago on the 10th inst. The principal busi
ness before them was the, approval or disap
proval of the action of their delegates at Phil
adelphia. A very strenuous effort was made!
to secure-the adoption of the Philadelphia'
platform, but it was defeated by a large mad
jority. A series of resolutions was adopted,
'denouncing the repeal of the• Missouri Com- . ;
promise, and declaring that in all future po-1
litical contests they would require from their ,
candidates distinct 'and unequivocal pledges
upon this subject. They also assert the pow
er of Congress to-legislate on the subject of
slavery in the Territories and the District of
Columbia.
THE NEW YORK LIQUOR LAW.—In New
lith city on Thursday, the Court of Sessions ,
decided that under the new law, imported I
liquors can not be sold after the original Pack
ages are broken. This sustains the opinion
of the' Recorder ; and is undoubtedly the
proper construction q to be placed upon the
operations of the new law in that State ns
regards imported liquors in original packa
ges. It is a noticeable Pact that those Judges
who so far have rendered decisions calcula
ted to clog the operations - of Prohibitory Li
quor Laws, are men who drink themselves,
and are thus influenced to give judicial opin
ions, not in accordance with the spirit of the
law on the subject.

BURGLARY IN SUNBURY.— On Saturday
night last, the residence of Judge Jordan at
Sunbury, was entered by burglars, and robbed
of much valuable family silver, which it con
tained, in the shape of spoons, knives, forks,
&c. Many of the articles taken by the rob
bers, have the initials of Judge Jordan's name
engraven 'upon . them, which if. recogilised;
may-lead to the detection of-the burglars.—
The thieves are supposed to be some "prison
birds" who lately escaped from jail, and a re
ward of fifty d-illarsis offered for their appre
hension.
MECHANICAL TRADE REVIVING.—The 8.09-
ton .71 , aceler states that' the business in the
machine shops of that city is "beginning to re
vive, and that manufactures are returning to
life and activity. A good fall business is,an
ticipated, as orders are coming in rapidly.—
One locomotive firm has recently received an
order for the •bnilding ot 40 new engines.—
Thisis good news. We presume the machine
business of our own State will exhibit a simi
lar activity next Fall. At least we gust that
the trade here will experience a similar favor
able reaction.

KANSAS .A.Frsins.—Late accounts from
Kansas represent that the personal encounter
between Governor Reeder and Stringfellow
was not accompanied by any of the humilia•
ting circumstances with which the first report
invested it. The assault was a trivial affair,
and the timely presentationof his pistol by
Governor, seems to have inspired Mr.
Stringfellow with notions' of discretion and
decorum. The Territorial LegislatUre has

RAsssa.)---The message of Gov. Reeder has
been submitted to the Legislature just as
bled. The Govenor contends for the right of
the people`:, to settle their own affairs, uninflu
enced by other States, and says the territorial
Legislature may act on the question of Slavery
to a limited extent, and temporarily regulate it.
He recominends the enactment of a stringent
liquor law; on account of the Indians. He an
nounces the population of the territory to be
3,383 females, and 5 , 133 males.

by Canal . 503,013'04- against 438,552.10 toni to
same perfod last year. -
The increase last year itivr previous year to date
Was 1i28,110 15 tons. 114 lacrosse the present
Year so tar is only 220,70 17 tons. ,
The increase .on the 'aihigb, owing to deters-1
thins on the Delaware Diklsion Pennsylvania Ca.
nal, has dwindled dowelto 44,40 tons, which
gives an increase of only 205,173 tons so farfrom
two of the principal regisits. We doubt whether
the increase from all the otherjegions would
swell it np to 300,000 tons ' H
The shipments from the Cumberland Region
only execed the shipments to same period last
year 21,211 tons, with a diminished weekly ship
ment from last year', varAtig from 5 to 7,000 tons.
It must be recollected that last year the mines
stood idle for several monks in the early part of
the 'meant). ' This year tl4ro has been no interrup
tion• to the trade; The fremendous schemes of
speculation practiced in that region, is re-noting,
and the trade this year, if'. ; We are not greatly mis
taken, will be less than fiat year, from 25te 50,-
000 Cons. -
We have no new features to notice in the Trade
in this region—prima at*, firm it former quota
dons and the demand is *it moderate. The ship-
thents from Richmond arii% heavy, and no 'Coatis
accumulating at that iloitkt.
At this time last year ate price of freight from
Port Richmond to Bostokwas $2 50 per ton. We
quote it Co-day at $1 25'. sl°3o
. per ton, about
ono half the prices that•.:Truled last year. Coal,
Which was selling last yelik in this region at - $2 50
to $2 75 per ton, now., commands from $1 90 to
$2 25 per ton only. Thrates of transportation
on the Philadelphia atuljteading Rail Road. are
the same as they were at r this time last year... This
-is the only branch of thOusiness that has main
tained last year's rates.
We understand that th4-Managers of the Schuyl
kill Canal_ are urging an ittivance in rates of trans
portation on dui first of August — and the Rail
Road Company are tiver4 to making any advance
befoie the first of Septaitb]nr. We doubt the poli
cy of the Companies maklng.any further advance
whatever this season—bui if it is donl, on no con
sideration ought any advance to take . place beforo
the first of September. Ale 'Trade. will not bear
it. Remember the fablo'qf the dog and shad

The Philadelphia and Itending Railroad Com

"The progress of Coal ecinsumption is a curious

Coal was scarcely .known in dwelling houses.—
Twenty years since it haii just began to be used in

dividends of the stockhotders just so

"Will take place in re.gard to Loesmotives"—
Coal has been, used in 'titicomotives for the last
twelie years, to some ext'#at and its cheapness ful
ly demonstrated. The lOtimore and Ohio Rail
road, before its 'extension to the Cumberland
Mines, used Coal iri some of their Locomotives

twelve years ago, and obtained it from Schuylkill
County. The transporteis on the Beaver Mead

What astonishes us is, Oiat a single Locoiaotive

that inclined planes would be preferable; but the
road,.t well and substantially built— ' la factOt has -
no superior in the world, both as regards the qualt
ity of "the iron and the construction of 'the.road--4
and the Locomotives in use are generally power::
fel and well built. They take twenty six tun curl
—42oteas of Coal—up the heaviest grade from
Sdranton. I have not_ yet had time to examine _
thdrorighly the. Engineer's Report, but lam told
that the average grade from Scranton to Cobb";
Girpt;the summit of the road through the Ploosie
,Bibuntaina—is about eighty feet to the mile.
4eatup is three miles below Archibald, anttnine
milea below Carbondale and consequently, ascend
ing to the geological formation, as far as we.have
investigated, the basin hero contains more Coat
Senna than it does at tbe s last named place, bul
less then it doeriat Scranton: It is a well known
fact—'proven by the sad exp erience of ,too many
'—that: "reins of Coal vary 'heth in quality and
quantity io localities. In eoineplaces theyare thick
while In others they are thin • in some places pure,
and in others impure andfinity. In the first case
this theory, or fact, holds good throughout all
the Great Northern Anthracite Valley; but lathe

Yet there are Many old and experienced wets

delightful and fruitful theme to, readers and to

• There are twe shafts being reitik at Jessup,—
knoi n as the,lower and the upper shafts. The
upper shaft I. now, he 20th June, 120 feet deep;
having cut through' two semis in . .that . distance.;

the nine feet vein, .which is supposed to be the
Pittston or Baltimore Coal, or Nu. 4 vein.; cense
quently, if this theory be . correct, there are still
three:veins below. the Nine Foot vein ; though'it
is generally supposed that these lower reins occa
sionally forte one or two large ones or divide into
even live small ones.
The lower shaft, approaching nearer to the cen
tre of the basin, is now 80 feet deep, and has been
driven through three veins; first the "Grassy,Jl
- vein, here bout cleft feetAhick, and the
two mentioned ab ve, as being cut in the upper
Arita
The company int rids to operate principally in
the nine foot, or No. 4 vein. The shafts are 10 by
14 feet in diameter, and well anti substantially
secured with heavy timber. Each Shaft has : ; a
40 tome power engine for hoisting and pumping.
A breaker is to be put-up immediately which is ba

The natural position of the place is' well adapted
for mich improvements, and we presume—though
we are not sure—those advantages will ho im
proved. We say "nut surer because se many
seenalind .or deaf to the hints of nature. We
havecalculated at random guesses, that a million
of dollars might have been saved in Coal inveit-,
mantis throughout the three Anthracite Coalfields,
if Architects had adopted their plans to the natur
al petition of places.

Act. The company will have
every convenience for mining anti, shipping Coal
when their improvements are completed, which
will pot be ranch earlier than next season.
We know that some of the Jessup people are
intelligent as well as enterprising, from the fact
that they take the, itivere Journal; indeed with
the Wit and good umeinf a Waters, the courtesy
and kindness of our hostess at Boyerley, and the
natural beauty of this hitherto neglected portion
of the Lackawanna valley, we. think the geed
things at Linyhridge's and Jessup, will be justly
appreciated under the inspiring influences of the
dear fold 'Journal. When you pass up the.Lacka
