(7. S. Hotel,
Philadelphia, June 26, 1354. f
The business season, so far as merchants
re concerned, is nearly over, and Philadel
phia in Market street and other localities o(
wholesale dealers, wears a dull appearance.
Not so, however, w ith the mechanics and
manufacturers ; which after all, are the true
source, of the wealth and prosperity of the
city. These are as busy as ever. In the
summer they provide for the fall and winter
trade, and in the winter, for that of spring
end summer. Thus they are ever busy, and
what is better, prosperous and thriving.
There is not a town on the Susquehanna, thai
iniuht not be made equally so. by the ex
penditure of a little capital and enterprise.
The flourishing towns in the New England
States afford a happy illustration oft bis fact
With a sterile soil and but little mineral wealth
with scarcely any natural advantages, ex
cept water-power and yankee energy, they
have built up towns, which for elegance, taste
and comfort, are not surpassed by any iu
the Unioa.
The political campaign has not yet faiily
commenced here, although it is about the
usual time. The truth is, the late electiou
has upset and-disengaged the old laid plans
and taken the wind out of the sails of many
of the old politicians. Philadelphia has been
ruled for many years past by a set of design
ing and corrupt politicians, who would stop
at nothing in order to accomplish their ends,
Some years past it was no uncommon occur
rence to poll several thousand illegal votes
to carry an election. Politicians who were
most expert at this business, in devising the
ways and means, were considered not only
smart but worthy of reward and posts of
honor and profit. The foreign vote, whether
by naturalized or unnaturalized citizens
formed an important element iu these nego
tiations. It was in this respect that Judge
Campbell, now Post Master Geueral, became
prominent before the public in Philadelphia
His influence with a certain class of people
was said to be extensive, and unfortunately
it was foolishly supposed to be necessary
for the success of the democratic party.
. The result was tho nomination of Judge
Campbell its one of the Judges of the Su
promt Court ; a posili in fnr which he was
wholly unfit and for which he had not a
single qualification. His defeat is now
matter of history. In an evil hour Governor
ftigler was induced to appoint him Attorney
General of Pennsylvania, as if to rebt.ke the
sovereign people of this slate, for exercising
"a privilege dear to them, and formidable to
tyrants only." On the score of qualification,
his appointment to This post was equally ob
jectionable Having opposed the election of
Judge Campbell, I did not hesitate to state
that the appointment was not only unwise
and impolitic, but that it would eventually
recoil upon those who had brought it about
The defeat of the democratic ticket in this
city, at the recent election, was not caused
by the Nebraska or the Temperance, qnes
lions although they, no doubt, had their iuflu
euce. The Democratic Union, in a late num
ber, lakes a proper view' of this subject
when it states thai Campbellism was tho
death of Mr. Vaux the democratic candidate
for Mayor, and that it must prove fatal to all
connected with it." If there was no othe
proof than the defeat of Win L Hirst, lb
talented and popular candidate for Solicitor,
by a vote several thousand greater than that
of the Mayor, it alone would be sufficient.
Mr. Hirst has been for years the political
mentor, counsellor and fiiend of Judge Camp
bell, and hence his defeat. I lake no pleas
ore in recording these facts, but if philoso
phy is history teaching by examble, it would
be well to remember its lessons.
The Uuited States Hotel has changed
bands. Mr. C. J. Maclellan, formerly of
J )Ues' Hotel has taken charge of the estab
lishment, and I can truly say that it now has
no superior in the city, and in many respects
I might add no equal.

Improvements in Lewisdurc. The Lew
isburg papers are gratulating themselves and
congratulating the public upon the growth
and improvement of that active little town.
The Chronicle says: Lewisburg justly bears
the palm from its neighboring towns in re
spect to Ihe regularity and beauty of its
streets, and the comfort and durability of its
dwellings, the latter are open to the objec
tion of too much uniformity or sameness of ar
rangement and appearance. There are many
pleasing exceptions of this general charge, it
is true, for all do not build upon a line with
the street, nor copy every error they may
find among their neighboring dwellings.
Some of our houses seem lo have grown up
hap hazard, or to have been planned by Ac
cident. Among our latest improvements,
are three homos prepared by Dr. Malcom.
Prof. Bliss, and Prof. James, on the new
street yet lo be opened from Third (or Church)
street lo the University buildings. These
dwellings differ from each other materially,
and yet each have superior comfort, utility,
or economy displayed in some point. Their
varieity will add not a little to the genera)
attractiveness they will import to the neigh
boihood. We recommend no particular model or
plan, but we do uige all who contemplate
building hereafter, to study and mature veil
the location, size, material, divisions, finish,
and even the colar of the building. Comfort,
durability, and economy are all aided by
careful forethought. Security against file
and dampness good diaft and ventilation
are all-important points for health and com
fort ; and a little care, and a little assistance
from an architect, will often save much ex
ponse and discomfort in preparing a home
for a family. .
The sensible advice given above, will ap.
ply with peculiar force in this locality. It is
certainly dt-siiublo that our peoplo should
learn to cultivate good taste in building, and
comu to appreciate the lact that there is
moral as well as a physical utility, what
ever ministers lo the former will, upon the
principal of action and reaction augment the
latter. Ed. J
The Union County Mutual Fire Insurance
Company at its lust meeting passed the fol.
lowing order :
Resolved that no properly in which a steam
engine or engines is or are used, shall be in

dollars shall be taken on any one risk, or on
