Tremendous Blow.
On Friday afternoon of last week our
Sown was visited by a violent storm of
wind and rain, accompanied with thunder
anil lightning. The wind blew a perfect
imrricane, and owing to the dryness of
the weather for some weeks previous, the
air was filled with an immense cloud of
dust that darkened tho heavens and pre
sented a most terrific aspect. A three
story brick building at the upper end o!
town, owned by Mr. Isaac II. Loder, wa.
completely unroofed and otherwise con
siderably damaged. His loss is about
8400. A number of trees were levelled
"by the storm, uprooting them here and
ihcre, "but more" frequently twisting them
olf their roots.
Godey's Lady's Eock.
The September number of this excel

sustains its reputation of being the best
Ladies" magazine in the country. Tin
number before us is filled with articles o:
the highest literary merit, and the engra

GE0LESA.
Tho cbolera, as we learu from the Bucks
(Ooeiity Intelligencer, has nearly disappear

were three or four deaths from Cholera

. Camphor Producing Ixsasity. Thr
Toronto Colonist says :
'We are informed that no less than
eighty persons have been admitted into
tbe Lunatic Asylum in a state of insanity,
occasioned by consuming quantities of
caaiphor to prevent cholera. Some of
them carried it about in their pockets, and
kept from time to time eating small quant
ities of it. Others took it dissolved in
feraudy. In all cases where it was
taken in any. quantity it produced insan
ity. It is a fact well known that a com
paratively small quantity of camphor will
set a og mad, and that he will soon af
terwards die.'
There is considerable difficulty with
"Western money, and brokers are prepar
ing to reap a rich harvest in the depreci
ated currency. The better way for our
jcatdtrij to do, is to refuse all Michigan
or Indiana Money- It is said that the
Erie and Kalamazoo Railroad bank, at
Adrian, Michigan, and the Bank ol
Washtenaw, at Ann Arbor, Michigan,
have failed for large amounts and that
the bills arc worthless.
Singular Affliction.
A singular and shocking case of suffer
ing now exists in this city, in the person
of a young woman residing in the western
part of the city. She has been suffering
for several j'ears from the growth of a
reptile in her stomach. Various attempts
to destroy it have proved ineffectual, and
she is in momentary danger of death from
it. A singular phenomena connected with
this case is, that when the young woman
looks at anything offensive to the invisi
ble tormentor she is immediately thrown
into violent paroxysms. Utisa Telegraph,

A fire occurred on Wednesday morn

stroyed all the buildings on the Ea?t side
of Railroad Avenue from East Green to
Elm streets. The loss is estimated at
$50,000. Largo numbers of mechanics
are thrown out of employment by this

great difficulty on account of the scarcity
of water.

From the Enstonian.
What Shall be Done?
We have repeatedly alluded to the
Whig prospects of success in Pennsylva
nia. They brighten around us, but work
must be done to make success certain.
The opposition are at work with every
power and every influence that their pos
ition can command and their ingenuity
devise. Bigler is shifting sail as far as
possible to adapt himself to the adverse
wind, and to meet the trouble of the
times, lie and his friends look upon the
coming contest as one of the most alarm
ing character, and they intend to meet
like men fighting for their last remnant
of power and position of polities! place
and influence. A desperate fight mu'l
take nlace, and if any Whig hopes for
success without maiuug an effort rcr it,
wc would at once inform him that hi3
hone is a vain one. Success will be ours
if we go into the fight manfully and fight
with one united effort until the end, but
without this wc must expect defeat. Fel
ler Whigs, be forewarned, and put on
your armor for the struggle! Unite in all
your strength in every township and coun
ty of the Commonwealth and go to work!
Now is the time for action! If you work
now you shall surely win, and the State
shall be redeemed. All the power of the
Administration all the cunning of office
holders and politicians will be exercised
for Mr. Bigler, but the popular mind is
against bis policy and his principles, aud
with due exertion by the friends of Mr.
Pollock, Mr. Bigler must expect to be re
moved.
Mr. Pollock advocates the groat prin
ciples which have always been found of
deep interest to the people ol Peimsyiva
uia. He stands the avowed opponent of
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise.
the friend of mtornal improvements and
of tho encouragement of home industry.
He is a true Pcnnsylvaiiian by birth and
feeling; a friend of the Union and a most
ardent supporter or the Constitution.
As IVhigs, wc are interested in the e-
lection of Mr. Pollock; aud we are also
interested in the success of tho principles
which he advocates. '1 he eyes of the
people of the sister States are turned to
ward Pennsylvania, and anxiously fixed
upon her, awaiting her action on the great
national question before her. Will she
approve of tho Nebraska iniquity? Will
she say, by her decision at the coming c
lection, that she sanctions this last viola
tion of faith and this repudiation of a
sacred contract? Fellow Whigs, be sure
that tho answer to these questions shall
be satisfactory. Do your duty, and they
will be answered rightly. Be firm and
active iu the coming contest, and they will
be answered honorably for Pennsylvania.
Be not lulled into quiet by the cheer
ing news that comes to you from every
section. A great infiuence is to be over
come. The Administration have in hand
all the means of iufluenco, and can use
them at their pleasure. They have their
appointees and subordinates in every
county and township, paid to scheme and
work to defeat the Whig candidate. Ik
awake to this scheeming and infiuence,
counteract it everywhere and expose its
falsehood and deception. Disseminate
information upon the vital questions that
agitate the State and common country,
and work coutinually until the polls are
closed and you hear the cheering news
that Pollock is elected Governor, and
that the people of tho good Old Keystone
have repudiated the Nebraska Fraud.
A Defiant Know Nothing.
Blanche's Sunday Press, whose editor,
though well known as a radical LocoFoco,
it is generally surmised knows more about
the doings of tho-e who know nothing
than he professes, or cares to let the pub
lic know, comes boldly to the rescue of
Canal Commissioner candidate Moit, and
thus lids defiance to the throats made of
throwing him off the ticket, if he coes
not purge himself of the charge of being
a Know Nothing;.
Henry S. Mott This gentleman's
name a personal friend is at our maht
head for Canal Commissioner. We Icnoic
Henry S. M'ott, and cheerfully endorse
his pure Democracy, private worth, and
sterling integrity, while a member of the
Legislature.
We have nothing to say about Col.
Mott's opinions on the issue of American
ism, and doubt the propriety of the as
saults made on his good name and fame
by the Pennsylvaniai, Lancaster ian, and
Democratic Union at Uarrisburg. Cer
tainly, wo have a right to our preferences;
we have fought Bigler from June 5th,
1853, to the present time, and wc do not
hoist the name of Chief Justice Black, be
cause he ran away when the decision was
given on the Barr liquor case. Our pa
per is Democratic to the core, and we de
fy contradiction to our principles. If the
Pennsylvanian dare argue the question,
let its conductors strip to the buff, and
enter the ring and if wc don't lick the
scurvy lot of knaves who conduct that
villainous sheet, in less than three round,
we' will 'cave in' aud cry peccavi. Such
insolence needs be rebuked, when it is
threatened to haul Mott's name down
from twenty odd papers in the State, and
call another Convention to nominate an
Irishman in his place. We defy you to
bring about such a result. We dare you
to the issue; and we say openly and above
board that Mott will be elected Canal
Commissioner by fifty thousand majority.
Now. put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Eigler's Abuse of the Pardoning Power.
We clip the following from the York
Republican of a late date
'Two recent additional instances of the
abuse of the Pardoning Power by Gov.
Bigler have come to light. One is thus
stated :
'The Small Note Conspirators Dis
charged. We learn from the Pittsburgh
Post of Monday, that Messrs. II aztn, Da
vis, Morris and Lawson, the defendants
in the celebrated small note case, were
discharged from prison on Friday, hi
pursuance of a pardon received from the
Governor on lh.urs.day night. We un
derstand that the civil action, instituted
by the parties jut named, for the recov
ery of the penalties alleged to have been
forfeited by the Pennsylvania Ilailroad
Company and others, under the small
note law, will be tried during the Octo
ber term of the Di -trict Court.'
from
pi ison
punisn
ment by Executive Prerogative,
are the
individuals whom wo noticed ia-t weeK
in our article on Gov. BiGLEii's Dodging
and Double Dealing, as having been con
victed of conspiracy against the Central
and Pennsylvania and Ohio Ilailroad
Companies by obtaining small notes o!
other States from them in change, and
then suing them for the penalty of S-I00
on each note. This conviction was deci
ded by the Saprc-me Court to bo lawful,
and the individuals named were declared
by tint tribunal to have been guilty of an
offence agaiust the law an offence, in
our judgment, the more aggravated be
cause it sought to pervert a ju-tand good
law to purposes of private emolument and
iirccdy speculation, totally rcardlnss ol
the public welfare. But the Governor,
by Lis prerogative, overrules both the
lower and higher Courts all his sym
pathies are with the criminals, and he sets
them loose to prosecute the civil suits
which, in defiance of the Legislature, hr
prevented by his veto from being consoli
dated into one. Thus Gov. Bigler dis
play's his approbation ofcouspiracy io ex
tort money for private lucre, and is de
termined not ouly that these men without
any merit shall pocket 25,000 or 8:30,
000 without any consideration, but that
they shall also be relieved from the pen
alty of the criminal acts which they re
sorted to in order to effect their object.'
The other case spoken of by the Re
publican is that of Dr. Laciienouu, of
Easton, which we noticed a few weeks a-
s- - -
Egg" letter from Hamilton, G a., says :
"More than four weeks have elapsed since
any rain has fallen here, and during the
entire interval, the sun's rays have been
alarmingly intense. No drought ever oc
curring in this section, has been so sud
den in its effects Within one week after
the rain, the corn was wilted and droop
ing, the small streams had almost ceased
to flow, and the earth was in a state ol
pulverization. Now tho very weeds are
withered and dying in the fields ; the un
ripe fruit shrivels and falls to the ground;
the dumb beasts seem to comprehend that
all is not right, and lounge about iu the
fence corners', and in the shade, with
scarcely energy sufficient to drag one hoof
after another.

Shocking 1
The Grrcat Storm of 1314.
The predictions from Illinois, publish
ed on tkc 14th instant, of. a great storm
between she 21st and 23d of the present
mouth, brings to mind a fearful hurricane
which swept over this city and circum
jacent country with great force forty years
ago. It is thus described iu the Intelli
gencer of the 1st September, 1814 :
"On Thursday evening last, whilst our
devoted city was in the possession of the
enemy, it was visited by a tremendous
hurricane, which did great damage to the
houses blowing off the roofs of many, de
stroving chimneys, fences, &c. In some
parts of the city every house ncis more or
lesQprnurcd. Much nijury was doubtless
j done higher up the country, where indeed
it levelled an immense number ol trees,
uprooting them Here and there, but more
frequently twLtlng them oft' their roots."
In yivimr an account of hid incursion
up and down the Potomac in 1814, Capt.
Gordon speaks of the good conduct of a
Capt. Napier, who is now believed to be
the admiral in command of the allied
fleets iu the Baltic. The storm above
referred to struck his vessel (the Eurya
lus) and did some damage. Capt. Gor
don said :
"To Capt. Napier I owe more obliga
tions than I have words to express. The
Euryalus lo.-t her bowsprit, the head ol
her foremast, and the heads of all her
topmasts in a taruodo which she encount
ered on the 25th, August, just as her
sails were clewed up, whilst we "were pas
sing the fiats of Maryland Point; and jet,
after twelve hours' work on her refittal,
she was again underweigh and advancing
up the river."
Capt. Gordon admits the loss of seveu
men killed and thirty-five wounded be
tween September 1st and 5th in his ac
tion with Com. Porter at the "While House.
The whole loss of the latter in killed and
wounded did not exceed thirty men.

Important From Europe.
The steamer Asia, which arrived at N.
l ork ou Friday last, brings intelligence
of considerable importance from Europe.
Prince Gortschakoff, the Hussian Am
bassador at Vicnua, has announced that
the principalities of Moldavia aud Wal
lachia will both be immediately evacua
ted. Austria has therefore countermand
ed the orders for the advance of her
troops, but subsequently engaged with
England aud France to insist upon guar
antees of future peace from Ilussia, and
4 i
not to be satisfied with the statu quo.
It appears that an armistice has beei.
a.-keu by Kussia, and refused by the
French Government, which has proclaim
ed through the Paris "Moniteur" that
peace may be had on the following terms:
Fir.t The abolition of the Itesaian
protectorate over Wallaehia, Servia, and
Moldavia.
Second. The freedom of the mouths
of tiie Danube.
Third. The revision of tho treaty with
reference to the limits of Russia iu the
Black Sea.
Fourth. No Power to have a protec
torate over Turkish subjects.
From the Danube there is no news
of further fighting. The Russians con
tinued to retreat and the Turks to ad
vance. The latter are in possession of
the whole course of the river from Orsova
to Galatz.
Active preparations were in progress
for the invasion of Crimea. Three thous
and French troops had landed on the
Isthmus of Perckop, and three thousand
on the Lland of Aland.
There is nothing new fiom tho Baltic

capture of Bomarsund.
The King of Saxony had his skull
fractured on the 9th instant, and died in
half an hour afterwards, by being thrown
from his carriage near Innspruck. Prince
John, his brother, has ascended the throne
thus made vacant.
Madrid is quiet. The people forcibly
prevented the Queen-mother Christina
from leaving Spain, and demanded her
trial by the Cortes, which the Ministry
have agreed to.
In the British Parliament Mr. Hume
had called the attention of the Govern
ment to the necessity of taking still more
tucrgetic measures for the suppression of
the Cuban slave trade, stating that he
was sure Gen. Espartero would give his
best assistance to carry out the object.
Lord John Russell said he believed that
strong efforts were making by the Span
ish authorities, and he thought those ef
forts would be now increased. He prom
ised that the British Government would
keep a watchful eye on the subject.
At Liverpool, August 12th, cotton had
declined in price. No change is men

The Faro of the Turkish Troops.
A letter writer states that the faro of
the Turkish troops consists of a bread and
meat ration that you would not give a dog
in England ; the bread is dark and coarse,
flat and soft, totally without crust, and in
tho shape of a pancake, and one fifth sand;
the beef is that of the buffalo, at all times
innutritious, now more than ever, the an
imals being nothing but skin and bone.
The water, too which the men have drank
from the river, is at this season of tho

The Drouth.
We copy the following from the New
York Tribune:
Just as everybody was congratulating
himself and his neighbours upon the se
cured crop3 of wheat, oats and grass, as
uv.ll .in nn the cheeriaff appearance of
' ' -" W
the crowing corn, and the bountiful sup
ply of potatoes in prospect, isolated ac
counts of drouth began to excite some un
easiness, but no great anxiety. Iu places
where winter wheat had failed, and a
backward spring had prevented putting in
aa much corn or potatoes as could have
been planted iu a more favorable season,
great fields of buckwheat and turnips
were sown, and the hope of a teeming
supply of food for the coming winter was
almost universal.
At first, the reports of drouth came
from some of the western and northern
counties of this State, but thoy recently
became more extensive aud more alarm -
has read our ex
tended reports in the present numbers of
The Tribune, must no convmeeu iu.u
the drouth now prevaling is more wide-
snrcad and more destructive than any
heretofore known iu America. Ihe corn
in manv of the best counties of Illinois
aud Indiana, that promised an average
yield of sixty bushels per acre, will, in
many fields, not poduce a single bushel,
and the product cannot possibly equai
one-half the usual average, if indeed, it
equals one-fifth. As we have before sta
ted, this drouth is no longer confined to a
few isolated localities ; it extends from
Maine to Missouri; it has not only cutoff
Indian corn, but potatoes, turnips and
buckwheat, and the fall feed for cattle,
n some places the poor brutes are liter
ally starving. Some feed them out of
their winter store, and some drive th'-m
to the woods to browse ; all sell them as
fast as they can, and many are sent to
the Gambles, though only fit for the
knacker's yard.
Now what is the prospect? for we may
as well look iuto the fact at once. It is
undeniable that the greatest of all Amer
ican crops Indian Corn will bo woe
fully below the anticipations of every far
mer in tho country, and greatly below
our actual wants. The consequence will
be, that Western pork cannot be made at
such prices as have prevailed for many
years, and our supply of Western beel
cattle, though it may not fall off in numb
er, will be like Pharoh's lean kine sadly
deficient in tallow ; and if we have grum
bled at what we have heretofore received,
we shall groan at what wc get hereafter.
The loss of the corn crop must be frit by
all classes of society, whether .they eat
corn or wheat bread, or whether they pat
consumers of meat or vegetables. The
flattering prospects of abundance of cheap
food next winter, is now to be counted a-
moug things past. Let all who read and
think, husband their resources. There is
no danger of famine, but there is need of
economy
The Democracy of Sullivan for Pollock..
The Sullivan Democrat of the 16th in
stant contains the proceedings of a Demo
cratic Mass Meeting at Forks of Loyal
Sock, iu Sullivan county, atv.hich Henry
E. Shippen, Esq., presided, and was assist
ed by a number of Vice Presidents and
Secretaries. The meeting was addressed
by the Hon. David Wilmot, of whose
speech a glowing account is gjp?cn; after
which T. J. Ingham submitted a pream
rle and set of resolutions, which sqyqh?i
animovsly adopted, and among which
were the following:
Resolved, That the first work before us
is to secure for Kansas and Nebraska the
inalienable right of liberty to all by an
act of Congress prohibiting slavery iu
those territories; and we will, therefore,
go to work, like practical voters, to elect
honest, competent men, who arc known to
bo in favor of this measure, to all omcc
of responsibility and influence.
Resolved, That we have no reason to
believe that Gov. Bigler agrees with us in
any point connected with the questions of
Slavery now agitated ; wc know he rec
ommended the passage of a law allowing
slave-holders to carry their slaves through
this State; wc know he endorses the Fu
gitive Slave Law, which tramples upon
our personal rights; we know his election
would be regarded in every part of the
Union as a triumph of the allies of slave
ry, and as those who arc not for us, in
this matter, are emphatically against us,
wc deelaare Gov. Bigler unworthy of our
support.
Kesolvcd, That inasmuch as Judge
Pollock has declared explicitly that he is
in favor of re-enacting the law which pro
hibited slavery in territories north of
thirty-six degrees and thirty minutes north
latitude; and also in favor of the manu
mission of any slaves illegally held there,
he occupies a position so much more just
and liberal thau Gov. Bigler, that (with
out endorsing the cautious address of the
(Whig Central Committee) wo esteem it
our duty to give Judge Pollock our full
and active support in the coming election.
A man named Burden, li
