The conferees of this Senatorial district, composed of the eoanties of Northumberland, Boy e'er, Montoor and Colombia connties, after a number of Inefficient attempts to make a nomination, at Northumberland, adjourned ever and met at Danville tfn Friday last, when the present incumbent, Rrcbkm K bl ur, Esq., of Snyder county, was cominated. A. Snyder is tbe smallest county in the district, aod anti-Democratic at that, aod has already bad a two years' term, while Nor thomberland and Montour, (the former a Urge Democratic county,) have had none, tbe re salt naturally created no little surprise amoog those wbo are not acquainted with the mode and manner by which these things are too frequently accomplished, io tbi. progres sive age. Borne years since, when Tbaddeo. Stevens advised Governor RitDer to "throw conscience to tho devil," some of our pious and patriotio politiciao. threw op their bands in holy hor ror. Bat it is needless to say what i. well known to all wbo are acquainted with what i. called "wire workiog" io political circle., that conscience i. an ingredient, now seldom need, and deemed entirely too inoperative in despe rate case.. We confess we were not much sur prised ourselves, as we generally manage to keep our.elvea posted io regard to tbe move ments of these wire workers, aod are no longer sorprised at any legerdemain or feats of ground and lofty tumbling that these po litical Blondins may see fit to accomplish. But whatever foundations there may be for the run o:f afloat it is due, alike, to the people as well as to the eandidntA oomiuated, that the conferees should, by some formal and nnequivocal action, clear up theae matters.

Tbe yield of some of theto wells ia enormous. At a welt recently opened at Tideout, Erie county, the flow is said to be one barrel per minute.

Dudley Mann, to the Richmond Enquirer, gives the gratifying in telligence, that ho has the assurance of tbe Directors or the Great Eastern, who came oot to this country on ber recent voyage, that .he will trade regularly to tho water, or the Chesapeake, if she cm be guaranteed the requisite quantity or outward bound freight, to complete ber cargo, and tbat she can make eight voyages a year. t7 Pfad headish As an erroneous idea prevail, that tbe Pres. 1. greatly favored by tbe system of dead-beadism or free passes, it will be well to let the public know that the reciprocity, "as the Irishman said, is not all oa one side," aod tbat these favors are but small in comparison to favors granted In every community by the newspaper press. Io placing the spur opon the other boot, we quote the language of a veteran New York editor, whose experience and position have afforded Lin the best oppoituoitiel for the troth of what be tsy. : "Railroads, steamboats, and stage coaches complain of dead heading tbat is to say, all editors and brethren of the craft riding so much without pay. Tbe newapaper press endures more of this dead heading than all three of these modes of conveyance combined. The pulpit, the bar, and the theatre ; corpo rations, legislative assemblies, societies, reli gious. beoevoleDt, agricultural ; mercantile establishments, railroad companies, steam boats, stage lines, and every variety of indi viduals, including political parties and poli ticians, draw largely opon the liberality of tbe press. The pres. ia expected to yield to all tbe.e interest. ; it i. required to give strength to all weak institution, and enter prises ; it is asked to puff small preachers into overshadowing pulpit orators ; to puff small politicians and unpriocipled demagogues into great men and patriots ; to magoify incompetent railroad officers into railroad kings ; it is expected to herald abroad tbe fame of q-iacks or all case., bolster op dull authors ; immortulise weak Congressional speeches ; it is required to give sight to the blind, bread to the buogry, talents to fools and honor to tbievea and rubber. ; it is asked to cover op the infirmities of tbe weak, to bide the faults of guilty men and wink at tbe fraudulent rchumea of scooudrels; it is expected to flatter the vain, to extol the merits of those who deserve oothing bat tbe scoro and contempt of all good citizens; it id required, in a word, of the newspaper press, that it become all things lo all men ; and if it look for pay, or send out its bill for sub scriptions and advertising, it is denounced as mean and sordid, and ita conductor as want ing io liberality. There is no interest on tbe face of tbia green earth thnt is expected to give as much to society, without pay or 1 thanks, as the newspaper press or the coootry. Tbe little sooled mao, who inserts io yo':c columns a fifteen shilling advertisement, expect, yoo to write him at least five dollura' worth or editorial uotices. Aod the obscure and niggardly mao you have written iuto a position or importance fur beyond his merits, considers that bis name adorns your columns, and gives circulation to your journal." 0"Tlie American contribution to tbe j Syrian Relief Fund will be very largo. New York recently dispatched to Damascua the sum of $13,407.13. There are now in Syria as maoy as fifteen thousand Christian suffer ers, many of them widows and orphans.

This ia not only bad logic, but in bud taBte, aa well as beiug unkind and unjust. A place notorious for anything cannot well, be obscure.
