If Mr. Jones mills the proesodinv of the moult

lie 4 eirtataly very easily plumed.
The ineetietwu the largest and most exalting
aver held In our county, and had the Jones men
behaved with eonimon deeeney, all would bare
pulsed off harmoniously. The meeting was called
to order by At. M. Sailed*, Esq ~ who nominated
Dr. Jamie Donisirin for ehairmen, and he wail fair
ly and honorably elected. Then ensued a scene of
bullying and confusion that baffles all desaription.
Our littlas)talff, Indeed of being a conservator Of
the pose., was the worst of the crowd, yelling out
the nuthof ' , Anti," theta' SOGOLOd for obeirinen

himself quite coupieuons in 'a similar men

style, but he .didn't strike anybody. Another lad,

y o u: - hairs - R on ie . annourolid: in a, tb ) dgrapbio
despatch from this city, and alai in the,Weshing
toh Star, that the commission appointed to seleot
and determine upon a site for a new ptisintiloe and
customhouse In - Philadelphia, lately been in tea
l/10,3,1'nd are about to announce their deolaion. r
A O fanned to believe this announcement ',reme
lting. 'A And the= law has been disoovered, and
nittlY to give considerable trouble. By the
csmstitutlon'of the Vatted States, 043ngress is to

for the. erection of . forts, 'megastrics, - ,titebriabi;
dockyards, and other needful buildings. The
sot .of 'Assembly of the State of -Pennsyleaula,
Pasted in 185 T, sired the aoasent of the Common=
wealth to the, purolnir's of the '.hanir. of ?entieyll
vitals 9 for the purpose of a .post office." .',Tbe
&Id conveying the property to the:United Meta
followi the aot of Assembly. Renee, it is argried
that as tholaw now hands, it le not within the
power of the Goiernment to convert that building
IMO a custom house. Tim oontent of the State of
Penneylvanla to the purchase, for the purpose of
a poet ojiis, it is said, lain the nature of condi
tion, and the. ThitaiStates would 'have about as
much right to nee the ground fora powder 'nage
sine as for a Custom borne. Under; these °Wein
stances, the individual partite interested in the
preeent oontraet bave beill lately urging their ne
cessity of going on with the work already+ begun
on Second Street. The biggest of the "Rice .70-,
ben," as they are stalled in your city, I be
lien; was here last week to effect that object. In
the meanwhile, a queer story has got afloat about
a large quantity of marble, originally designed for
the Capitol, but width was found to be unsuitable
when sent on here, being destined for the Second
street building.
There are niorithlngs In heaven sad eaFth,liointlo.,
` Let your citizens keep a good look-out. The
delay arises, I imagine, from these canoes, and
treat "strong dedreouthe part of the commilaricm
to locate the post °pee on Chestnut street, and the
sustom hones on Second atroet, in complianoe with
the wishes of a vast majority of your °Mama. But
tite`y must *limey pones, the power to do so be
fore they vehtnro to attempt It. One of two things
will hive to be dona 7 -elther togo on with the work
on Second street, already begun, (which is not
likely to be the oeute,) or !upend the whole sub
jeot until the next meeting of your Legislature,. in
order to obtain the proper kind of consent. The
true course is' to combine the Post Omoe and
courts In one building, and to put the Custom
House Into the tobacco warehouse, on Dock street,
which would leave the Pennsylvania Bank and the'
building In Fifth street to oil to pay all outside
expenses, if the appropriation failed.
Truday's States (a daily Demooratie paper
here) complains of the number Of leading Mill
stone gluon to Pennrybrania. I give you the
most Irreverent paragraph :
A telegraphio despatoh from Philadelphia in
forms us that strong effort le being made In behalf
of ex-Mayor Vaux, of that city, for an appoint
ment to a foreign • mission. In behalf of equality
and Pasties, we would like to know how many
more foreign missions Pennsylvania expecte ?
Besides a legion of oozing., secretaries of lega
tion,, and commercial agents, the old Keystone
State hits been complimented with the following
fait missions : •'
George M. Dallas, Minister to London. '
Wm.B. Reed, • China.
Joseph R. Chandler, Naples. •
Joseph B. Clay, " Lima.
Ohm. R. Bookslow, " Eouador.
We think Pennsylvania certainly has straitly
rather the.llon's share Of oomfortable places, and
that modesty would Motete the propriety, even if
the old State hu any further claims upon the De
mousey, to withhold them for the present.
The States. should recollect that, as yet, not
one of the old guard of Mr. Buohanan's friends
in Pennsylvania has_ got a place, and .that
every one on this list
,Is composed of people
heretofore indifferent or hostile to Mr. B. • I
believe Mr. Clay is an .exoeption, and he Is
retained becatuie" he IS almost indispensable;
Out It Ii a'fact that Mr. Buohanan has no
vet given ono of his friends a foreign mission
ors leading consulate. The foot that the "table's
full," to use a Muleltdan phrase, doea not luduoe
others to apply, and.if anybody 'loots to come in,

a
tor, as goneralthing But I notiooda suggestion
or retreat In to.day's paper, addressed to the pre- -
sident if 'a oeitaln railroad, : deolringithat hi
should furnish a Ocelot Sunday train between Phi
ladelphia and Atlantis. City.. 'Nor, this 'anneal is'
professedly founded on:reasoistorlittratinitiitha,
aoundness of which the.wrltortfegs ittavaieo4 l /
question.,,
Those who are to :be, benefited are styled
." tired overworked masses," henoe, such as,
need rest, real repose, and quiet. But • the Sug
gestion of The Preto ',reposes that these" tired
and over-wpried " persons add to their week's
labor the additional worker preparation to' leave
home on the morning of the Sabbath " by' dip
light," or before that limo, in.order to Make their
way to the oars, which are to alert at that hour.
This, to the majority Of loch persons, would be no
small itoin of labor, when, they' to spend the
day midst scenes eroltatnent, If not of dissipa
tion, and the night, too=till midnight—before
they start for their distant homes, baiting ex
pended half, or perhaps all, that for which they
had " tired" themselves in labor during the past
week. • ..
Now, it strikes the : writer that instead of being
loss weary through the week following such a day
of rest, those persons would feel unusual lull
tulle. Therefore, I behave, leaving the moral
tendency of the suggestion of The Press entirely
out of view, (which should not be lost sight of
those who instruct the publio Mind.) that it Is it
considerate, and would be hurtful Instead of bone
dotal to the very clan of persons for whom it Is
proposed. We have never known men to be in
jured by too great reverence for the precepts of
the desalogue, and the Writer is still disposed to
think, that be who Is, Indeed, the friend of the
poor and lowly, knows best what will most con
done to their oornfort and elevation. Bet tboei
who esteem God aa the friend of the poor and
lowly, and reverence his word and his day, would
tot desire railroad employees to be engaged upon
the Babb4ll2 to carry them from their tranquil
homes and loved sanotuarles; the Sabbath to them
is a delight, tho holy of the Lord honorable.—See
