who was the aniljnr. of. tha.rnQvemi'nt which
broke the Biitish lines at Tippecanoe. He

command. General Harrison issued his or.
ders for the order of battle ; Col. Johnson's
regiment being behind to support the infan
try. After the line, was formed, Gen. Harri
dan said to hiirt, (Gen. Cass).that he believed
ho woulJ change the orderof battle and
place Col Johnson's hoiso in front. He sug
gested to Gen. Harrison the diflionliy of tlio
movement, that Col. Johnson, men and hor
ses were but-raw Mroops. Gen. Harrison re
plied that he ha.deo'usideied that, ami Col.
Johnson was ' willing -to do it. Tho chutgu

The 'Ski-pisski'' Brothers. Tho New
York i:Abend Zeitnng," a German evening
journal of that city, translates into its col
imins the suggestion of the Ledger, that tho
Fkupinskiea had been concerned in the mur
der of tho Polish noblemen of 1846, and ap
pends to it some remarks of its own, which
confirm those suggestion, and also the sus
picions of the Polish gentlemen fiom New
York, of which mention was made yester
day. The following is a translation of the
remarks of the editor :
'This suggestion we are able to confirm.
A Hungarian gentlemen, who arrived in this
country in company with Kossuth, and now
lives in this city, (New York) has assured
us, with all certainty, that he very well re
collects that the brothers Skupinski made
themselves remarkable during the year
!81fl, in the bloody cruelties perpetrated
upon the Polish noblemen by the peasantry
during the insurrection, to which they were
instigated by the Austrian Government."
National Free-Soil Convention, Pitts
bubs. Pittsburg, August 9th. The delegates
to the National Free-Soil Convention are as
sembled here in great numbers. The hotels
aio already nearly filled. Ohio, Pennsylva
nia, Illinois, Wisconsin and Kentucky are
largely represented. Four cars, loaded with
delegates, camo in this evening, among w hom
noticed Mr. Giildings and Judye Spnuldii.g,
of Ohio, and Hon. Rodney French of Mass.
Charles F. AJams, of Quiiicy, Lewis Tap

cinnati, and several other ptominet men, aie
expected soon. To morrow will be spent in
canvassing tho claim! cf the various candi
dates for the nomination that are to be made.
It appears to be the geneial determination to
nominal. Senator Hale fur the Piesidency,
notwithstanding his declination, and thus
throw on him the responsibility of disorgan
izing the party, if it is to be broken up.
Messrs, Giddiugs, Spaulding and Lewis, of
Ohio, are sjoken of for the Vice Presidency.
Gen. Scorr"s Regard for His Rear. The
following is iho passage in Gen. Scott' letter,
in w hich reference i made to his apprehen
sions of a "tiro in the rear:"
I am too old a soldier, and have had too
much special experience, not to feel the infi
nite importance of securing myself osainst
danger (ill-will or precondemnation,) in my
rear, before advancing upon the public ene-
my. Not an advantageous step can be taken hii advertisement gives notice that he will
in a forward march, without tho confidence remain but one week longer. Persons
that all is well behind. If insecure in that wishing pictures should not neglect this op
r, ia tcr, no General can put his whole heart -....(.,
and mind into the woik to be dune in his j
itn llirt wnib- In .a i!oni to lia i
front. 1 am, therefore, not a little alarmed
nay crippled in my energies by tho know
ledge, and tho impatience in question, and I
beg to say, I fear no other danger.

K The Tnt.F.GRArii. We are pleased
to announce that we are aain in tele
graphic communication wilh the Susque
hanna lines. The wires, which were sev
ered by the deitruclioii of the Northumber
land bridge, have since been stretched
across the river from the tops of a tree on
either side of the bank.
017" The Goose pond in Market street,
( wlich was ,)rt.s(,nteH by the Grand In-
quest as a nuisance, still continues, although
we were informed that it was to be filled
forthwith. The authorities are, however,
moving in the matter as Mr. Wilson was
engaged on Tuesday last, in making a sur
vey ol the street lor a sewer or tlrain of
some kind. Perhaps a good swer put in
would, in the end, be the cheapest, as it
would undoubtedly be the best.
C17" The Special Court commenced its
session on Monday last, Judg Jordan pre-
fWing. The Court was called specially
for the purpose of trying the cases of John
G. Lowrey & the Executors of David Love,
decM., vs. Win. Allison, arising out of the
proceeds of Ihe sale ol the personal pn
peily of J. & J. Potter, by the Sheriff ol
Centre county. These cases were moved
troni Centre to this County, by an act ol
the legislature. Including the parties,
counsel and witnesses, &C, there were
something like sixty persons in attendance,
mostly from Centre county. Among them
were many of the most distinguished citi
zens of Centre aud the adjoining counties-
ZT". Messrs. Walus and Gaucler have
established a new stage line from Selins
pr tve to Williamsport, on the West side ol
the river.
THE AVIIIU MEETING SCOTT Ac TimCE.
A whig meeting- was held at the Court
House, in this place, on Monday evening
last, in pursuance of previous announce
ment by the bills. The house was well
filled by whigs and democrats, and the
meeting was ably addressed by "David Tag
gart, Esq., of Northumberland, Andrew G.
Curtin, Esq., of Belleibnlo, and Hon. James
Pollock of Milton. Mr. Tacgart's speech
was a chaste and classic production, though
deeply tinged with romance and heroic
verse. General Scott' military exploits
and his acknowledged talents as a great
General, werp, of course, the basis and
ground work of all the speeches. Mr. Cur
tin was next loudly called (or. When he
rose he did so for the purpose of declining
to make a speech, on account of indisposi
tion under which he had been suffering nil
day. The audience, however, would not
let him off", and he was betrayed into a
speech of some twenty or thirty minutes,
into which he infused some of the humor
which generally characterise his speeches.
He remarked that it was so easy to speak
in favor of the whig candidate for the Pres
idency, that it was difficult to restrain him
self. We thought, however, that it was
not quite so easy, but rather with some re
pugnance to his own feelings, that he made
some ill natured remarks in regard to Gen.
Pierce. Mr. Cr.rtin has few superiors as a
humorous and interesting political slump
speaker, but it is just to say that he should
not be judged wholly by his rfiorton Mon
day night last.
Hon. James Pollock was next called out
and made the concluding speech, and an
able. one it certainly was, considering the
subject on which it was based. Judge
Pollock has the good sense to see that it is
not good policy to attack the character of
a man like Gen. Pierce, the couduct of
whose whole life has been, probably, as un
exceptionable as any public man in the
Union. Judge Pollock spoke highly ol
the military services of Gen. Scott and ar
gued that a man who had the abilities to
make a good general must necessary have
sufficient talents to make a good President.
We cannot assent to any such a proposi
tion. As a skillful and successful comman
der, Gen. Scott has certainly given evi-
I

j ei t0 thj on way 0f thinking and have

We regrtt to see the want of harmony
and good feeling, between the city council
and the Sunbury and Erie Rail Road Com
nanv. Some ol the council have made

themselves opposed to anj' subscription by
the city as long as the company is managed
by its present officers. The friends of the
company and of Mr. Miller asked for a
committee to investigate the matter which
was relused. In this we think the council
were decidedly wrong. When accusations
are made the accused, should have a chance
to defend themselves.
Executed. Matthias Skupinski,
one of the murderers of the pedler boy
Lehman, suffered the extreme penally ol
law at Philadelphia, on Friday last. He
made a confession acknowledging his knowl
edge of the crimp, assisted in deposing of
the remains, nud charges a man Keyser,
with having murdered young Lehman
He died without a struggle, and all the ev
idence since his arrest, show him to have
been a hardened criminal.
lXIXTIOMKLilllXn SONGS.
Our whig friends are determined to use
every means to carry the election of Gen.
Scott. Not finding anything vulnerable in
the life ol Gen. Pierce, they assail him with
songs intending to cover him with ridicule.
Some of thpse songs are curiosities in their
way. The following verses are a speci
men ol what they can get up at Mauch
Chunk, and were copied by a Philadelphia
paper, from the Mauch Chunk Gazette. We
should not wonder if Ihe author, after this
wonderful effort, had fainted.
One day a riding 'Ions ihe roaj,
He saw a buy a eryina,
At mice quito touched, ho was thereby,
His heart was sympathising.
Ho Hopped his horse, an.! asked tho boy

To buy a slick of Candy."

y have nominated Col. C. M. Straub as
their candidate for. Congress aud Nicholas
?e'itzinger for Sheriff. Bernard Reilly and
Samuel Hippie are on the ticket for the
House of Representatives.
The opinion of the Supreme Court
delivered by Chief Justice Black, on the
injunction case vs. the Sunbury and Erie
Rail Road Company, will be found on our
first page. It is a most able production
clear, concise and conclusive in its argu
ments. We cannot see how any man pos
sessing a modicum of common sense, after
reading this opinion can come to any other
conclusion than that arrived at by the
court. This was the opinion of every
member of the bar from our neighboring
Counties, now attending Special Court in
this place, whom we have talked to on the
subject, and whoso local feelings and pre
judices were altogether on the side of the
Sunbury and Erie Company.
COUNTERFEITER ARRESTED AMI &1IOT !
On Monday afternoon last, Dr. Giltner was
arrested at his residence in Moulnnr county,
about five miles from Washinetonville, by
two Police officers from Philadelphia. After
they had taken hiin he attempted to escape
when the ollicers fired three bulls into his bo
dy! He fell, und exclaimed, "1 am a dead
man !" the blood gushing out of his tnc.ulh
rapidly. Ho was immediately taken by the
ollicers to Washiuglonville, where his wound
were dressed, and from there taken to Dan
ville. The wounds, we learn will not prove
fatal. Two other men weie in 'he house
who made their escape. The oflieeis found
a large amount of bills in tho house, signed
and unsigned, together with numerous im
