The Democratic delegates are unani
mously in favor of the renomiuation of
Mr. Asa Packer, of Carbon couuty, for
Congress, and of the nomination of Mr.
James H. Walton, of Monroe county, for
State Senator, in place of Mr. E. W.
Hamlin, whose term of service has expir
ed. "We have heard it said that Mr.
Packer does not wish to continue in Con
gress, and that after he shall be rc-nom-inatcd
he will decline. The reason assign
ed is the pressure of his large private bus
iness. We hope there is no foundation
for this report ; not that we want to have
Mr. Packer re-elected, far from it; but
we do desire that the people of this Con
gressional district should have an oppor
tunity to pass judgment on his course
upon the Nebraska bill. We are not full
in the belief that in case he should be tbe
candidate he would be defeated ; but we
arc couGdent that his majority would be
eo greatly reduced as to amount to a very
decided rebuke, and we arc not without
hopes that he would be entirely over
thrown. Wc do hot say this lightly, or
in the way of political gasconade ; but
from an inwrought conviction that Mr.
Packer can be beaten by an independent
anti-Nebraska democrat of good abilities
and unexceptionable character. Hones

From the Bedford Chronicle
Rev. John Chambers, Again.
In another part of to-day's paper will
he found a letter from the lie v. John
Chambers, which has at last been wrung
from him by tlfc Philadelphia News. We
invite the particular attention of our
readers to it. It will be seen that the
private letter which he boasted to have
from Gov. Biglcr does not accompany it.
It will also be seen by those who heard his
address hi the Prc'sbytcrian Church in
this place, that he does not directly deuy
in any particular, a single charge that
wo brought against him; but he gives as
his recollection of what he did say, state
ments which he never made, and which,
if madoj would have altogether precluded
the present controversy. His speech,
we said at the time, and now repeat, was
mainly intended to exert an influence iu
favor of Gov. Biglcr; and for this purpose
lie spoke of his ability as a statesman, his
excellence of character, and the earnest
ness of his zeal in the cause of temper
ance. For this purpose he went out of
his way to introduce an account of the
Governor's temperanco experience in
Clearfield county! "With all this for Gov.
Biglcr, he never mentioned the name of

Since reading the letter of Mr. Cham
bers, we have "compared notes" with a
number of our citizens who heard his ad
dress, and their " recollections'' in cverv
essential point accords with ours. We
now repeat what we before charged him
with baling said, and his "recollection"
wiii not permit him to deny it. If he at
tempts to aver that he did not use in his ad
dress the following language iu substance,
we will prove it upon him by the a?nj)lcsl
testimony.
1st. That Gov. Bigler had expressed
to him in recent conversation, his willing
ness to sign any constitutional prohibitory
liquor lair that the legislature might enact.
2d. That he had a letter from the Gov
nrnor in his nnrkof fwJili swrnlfip-iTit

want in uoing so. ve do not Iook lor a
denial from Mr. Chambers, the editor of
the Gazette, or any one of the large num
ber of persons who heard the address.
It ran not be successfully made, and will
not therefore be attempted. But if, con
trary to our expectations, a deniel is ven
tured upon, we will establish ail we have
said upon the most satisfactory authority.
J he only point in the letter of Mr.
Chambers which approaches a contradic
tion of us, is this: "But Gov. Bigler has
writte n no letter to me inconsistent with
his manly letter to the Temperance Con
vention." Then the private letter of
which he vaunted gave him no warrant
for saying that "Govi Bigler was in favor
of an' constitutional prohibitory liquor
law that the Legislature might enact."
And Mr. Chambers did say, most distinct
ly and equivocally, that he had such a
letter in his pocket from Gov. Bigler.
If the letter was of the same import with
that which the Temperance Convention
pronounced unsatisfactory, there was no
necessity for alluding to it at all, for cve
ro body had read that letter, and was as
well acquainted with its meaning, per
haps, as the reverend lecturer himself.
In the warmth of his advocacy of the
election of Gov. Bigler, the reverend gen
tleman permitted himself" to be carried
beyond the strict couflucs of truth, and
he is now compelled to make the humili
ating acknowledgment that he has not
the letter of which he boasted. He is
now forced to make the reluctant admis
sion that he has mis-stated Gov. Biglcr's
position on the temperance question. He
does not deny anything that wo have
charged against him, but simply makes
ttie avowal that Gov. Bigler gave him no
such assurances by letter as those which
lie made for him in this place. And it
will be remarked, further, that ho does
not attempt to deny what he said about
ins assurances '"from tye lips of the Gov
ernor." The awkwardness of his retreat,
amid the "vulgar clamor" for " that let
ter," and his assumption of virtuous in
dignation against those who arc eudeav-
mg to defeat his favorite, only serve to
place him in a more ridiculous attitude be
fore the public.
With the vapid twaddle of Mr. Cham
bers about the Know Nothings, this con
troversy has no concern. The public have
not yet manifested much anxiety to dis
cover the opinions of Mr. Chambers on
that or any other subject, and his croco
dile lachvymationa over the "poor- for
eigners" will not much engage their sym
pathies, nor serve to avert attention (as
they were no doubt intended) from the
question at issue. What the public have
demanded, and now require from Mr.
Chambers, is that letter in which Gov
ernor Bigler assured him he vould sign
any constitutional prohibitory liquor law.
lie docs not now deny that he has such
a letter, but endeavors to make a false im
pression by saying that he has no letter
inconsistent with the Governor's letter to
the Temperance Convention. There
tnajT possibly be some difference of opin
ion in regard to its "consi.tency," and as
Mr. Chambers is bciginning to be consid
ered a rather unsafe guide in this temper
ance progress, it would relieve the public
if he would produce the letter and let
them decide upon its contents. It at last
remains from all Mr. Chambers has said,
that Governor Biglcr or himself, or both
cf them, are playing a dishonost, double
game on the temperance question, and
unless Mr. Chambers produces the letter,
the odium of a gross attempt at political
fraud lies justly with him.
The Mott Know Mothingism.
The Evening Argus of 'csterday pub
lishes a letter from Henry S. Mott, theJ
Loco Foco candidate for Canal Commis
sioner, in reply to a letter from the Chair
man of the State Committee, inquiring
whether he is a Know Nothing, which let
ter the Argus pretends to regard as en
tirely satisfactory, and which, we have no
doubt, will this morning be proclaimed
by the Peunsylvanian as conclusive a
gainst the charge made against him.
In being thus easily satisfied, these Lo
co Foco journals afford a striking proof
of their insincerity and hypocrisy, and
show clearly that a Know Nothing is on
ly objectionable to them when he happens
to be a Whig. Were they honest in their
dedunciations of the Order, they would
not be satisfied with Mr. Mott s answer,
but, eager to catch at anything that will
throw the cloak of oblivion over his Know
Xothingism, they do not hesitate to take
a deniable as satisfactory, which if made
by a Whig, they would pronounce whol
ly unsatisfactory. When the Clinton
Tribune positively affirmed that James
Pollock was not a member of an order
called Know Nothings, both these journ
als bristled up at once and pronounced
the deniel as equivocal and unsatisfacto
ry, declaring that the Order did not re-
cognize

they will not have the hardihood to re
fuse to acknowledge a similar deniel from
Mr. Pollock as satisfactory; and now that
Mr. Mott, one of their own candidates,
has set tbe illustrious example of purga-
! tion, we hope to see Judge Pollock follow
it, and in doing so that he will adopt the
very words of Mr. Mott's epistle, varying
onh' that part relating to the Democratic
party as to read that the only member
ship to which he confesses is the Whig
party. If the Argus, which so valiantl'
calls upon us to retract our charge against
Mr. Mott, will agree to receive a similar
answer from 3Jr. Pollock as satisfactory,
we may then be better prepared to takej
into serious consideration its demand to
make a retraction. Y"bat say you, gentle
men ? Yhat is sauce for the goose should
also be sauce for the gander. If you
are willing to let Mr. Mott off on his own
recognizance, 3'ou should be equally wil
ling to treat Judge Pollock in the same
way.

J. Ellis Bonham, Esq., Chairman Stale
Central Committee.
Df.au Sjk : On my return home, af
ter a considerable absence, I found await
ing my arrival yours of the ISth. In re
ply, 1 have to say that I am not connec
ted with secret association organized for
political purpose's, commonly called Know
Nothings, and that I have never made!
any promise, effort, or request, to be ad
mitted as a member, or given the least
intimation that I would do so. The only
political membership to which I confess
is that of the Democratic party of the U
nion, bound in the bonds of tbe constitu
tion, and the glarious and liberal princi-
pies wnien nave demonstrated tbe problem
of self-government, which has made our
country the beacon light of freedom for
a wondering and admiring world.
In the love of those principles I have
always lived and expect to die.

Arrival of the Pacific.
The U. S. mail Eteamcr Pacific ar
rived at New York on Sunday, with Liv
orpool d atca to the morning of the 23d
ult. The Africa arrived out at 0J A. M,
on the 20th.
The fall of Bomarsund is confirmed by
this arrival. It appears that a cousidera
ble nart of the garrison had retired be
fore the attack, leaving only a garrison of
two thousand, and it was intended to c
vacuate and destroy the Works entirely
but. the attack of the allies prevented this
intention from being carried out. Ihe
attacking force amounted to twelvo thous-
and, inoitly French, and the licet, or a
portiou of it, seems also to have fired up
on the ATorKs.
Fifteen sail of the line, of which four
ships and four steamers were French, arc
stated to have lain within range of the
works during the fight, and probably a
part of them, at least, participated in it
The credit of the victory, such as it is, is
given to the French. The loss was not
great, the French having about 120 kil
led, and the British only. 3 or 4.
The detached forts Tzec and Nottich
were first taken! They were garrisoned
by about 120 men each. Fort Tzec was
attacked by the French, and of its defen
dcrs, seventy were killed or wounded,
leaving only thirty-five captured unhurt.
Port Notticb seems to have made less re
sistance, as 115 prisoners were taken in
it.
The attack on the main fortress then
commenced. One account says it was
bombarded from 5. A. M. on the 15th
to 2 P. M. on the lGth, and that part of
the works were blown up before propos
als were made to surrender. About
1500 prisoners were taken, who were cm
barked on board the allied fleets. The
capitulation is said b' one account, to
have taken place at 12.30 P. M. on the
10th. Ihe allies claim to have captired
a hundred pieces of cannon. Genv Bara-

A long aud warm discussion ensued, at

ner, took place a lew days since in the
town of Hamburg, in this county. An
Irishman was engagged in digging a well,
and, alter getting down to the depth of
some eighteen feet, found signs of water
very perceptible. At last he struck bis
pick through a thin layer of slate, when
all at once, and with noise like thunder,
sufficiently loud to be distinctly heard all
over the neighborhood, a stream of min
gled gas and water burst through the or
iGce, instantly killing the unfortunate man,
and filling the well to the depth of ten or
twelve feet with water. Gas still escapes
profusely, and the water is in constant
and violent motiou, resembling a larce
cauldron of boiling fluid. Buffalo Dem.

Frightful Calamity in Louisville. Dis
tressing Loss of Life by the Fall of a
Church.
The telegraph furnishes a brief account
of an appalling tornado whicb-risited
Louisville, Ky., on Sunday the fFtb ult.
about 12 o'clock, while service was going
on in the churches. Tbe storm passed
over that part of the city lying between
Fifth and Twcnty-Grst streets, and so
great was its fury that fully 100 build
ings were unroofed or otherwise injured,
and others were completely demolished.
The Third Presbyterian Church, on the
corner of Eleventh and Walnut streets
a large brick cdiGce was destroyed, roof,
rafters and walls falling while the conr
grcgalion wore worshipping. Twenty
persons were instantly crushed to death,
and some ten or twenty others were seri
ously wounded; the scone was heartrend
ing. In a few moments a large crowd
assembled around the ruins and commcc
cd an active scrach for the victims. A
mother and her three children were found
grouped in death. Another scene pre
sented a father, mother and young child

tally wounded, while their little child,
placed between them, escaped unhurt, be
ing protected by the forms of it3 parents.
In other instances persons were extricated
terribly bruised and maimed.
The catastrophe has stricken constern
ation into the very heart of the city, and
its citizens are appalled beyond expres
sion. The following is a list of killed :
Mrs. Uldabee, and three children; Wm.
Taylor and child; Mr- Godfrey; Mrs.
Salisbury ; Miss Ileadly; John McGowan;
Mrs. Sweeny; Mrs. Martin, wife of John
A. Martin, saddler; Mrs. Wicks, neicc of
Mrs. Martin; Mr. Harbour; Mr. McClel

bany.; Mr. McBrido and child.
It is thought that one or two others
were killed, whoso names have not been
learned.
A splended block of four story houses
recently erected on the north side of Main

blown down.

"Do yon wish to Laugh? Dou you wih lo

the mot remarkable Book of the age! Just
.ub!i-ihpd bv Mim.ek, Orrton & Mulligan,
Auburn aiui liufTalo, N. Y.
The publishers cmiralunily commend tbi.i
Sccond Offering of Feam Leaves to the p'ii
lic attention, ll is composed wholly of ori
ginal matter, and such an amount of wii, pa
thos, humor, common sense, intelligence,
amusement and instruction, was never be
fore wrapped up in four hundred l2mo pp.
Fanny Fern, is to-day, beyond question,
not only the most original, but the most vig
orous and spirit-stirring, as she is also the
most fascinating and effective writer, either
here or elsewhere..
Her past is certainly a remarkable Histo
ry, as tbe sale of nvne than 150,090 copies
other works in lesa than a year, clearlv at
tests; and the ronti-i'ieJ demand indicates a
future still more brilliant.
