Nkw Northern State. —An excellent
proposition has lately been prumulged by ibe
CtncHgo Tribune, which wo opine will seri.
uusly alarm ihe’slavery extensionists, as like
ly to upset their schemes for further aggran
dizement and the extension of slavery. The
uittmition in the decision of the Supreme!
Court of the United States in the Dred Scon I
case, that the Missouri Compromise is uncon-1
stilui'onal carries with it consequences that I
the fire caters and nullifiers have not pre- ;
pared to meet, as before remarked. If that
fumods compromise has no binding force,
and ive will assent to democratic ideas upon
that point to carry out the aruument, the or
dinance of 1789 is also a nullity, and there
is no valid reason why the division ,of the
northwestern Territory into five States should
be respected by Congress —no reason why It
may not he cut up into as many sovereignties
as are demanded by the political interests and
commercial convenience of the people. All
this 100 under the favorite democratic dogma
of “Squatter Sovereignly.” In this view,
that part of Michigan lying between lakes
'Michigan and Superior could readily be
formed into a new State, and, indeed that plan
has long been pressing upon the people who
occupy that remote and important region.—
Now that all legal objections have been re
moved by the repeats and nullification of the
ordinance referred to, it is well to agitate the
matter and bring the question to an issue.—
Belter now than when olher imporlant ques
tions engross the attention of lhe country. —
The Tribune says : Ftom all that we can
gather in relation to the feeling in that part of
Michigan which lies within the peninsula,
there would be no serious objection to grant,
mg all that is asked. They have no use for
that hyperborean yegion that cannot be served
by its erection into a sovereignty ; and they
will ofier no resistance. If this be true, let
the ball roll. The fire-eaters and nullifiers
h ive removed the impediment to the scheme.
Now let ns lake advantage of their, blunder.

A Rich Sccnr in Church.—One Sunday
whhin ihe las* 100 years, the service had
mrnmfnord m a country church a few mites
from Penrith, uhm in walked a woman in o
«rav cloak, accompanied by two half grown
urchins, with eyes and mouth both fearfully
agape, a °d the I rio took their seats in all mod.
esiy near the door, By-nnd-by the clergy
man gave out the text—“ Jesus I know, and
Paul I know, (>tji who are ye V f The gray
cloak was agitated. The text was energeti
cally repeated, and the minister’s eyes seemed
cast toward the parly seated behind the door.
Oef friend in gray stood up, and wfh the
voice of a shepherdess on the Westmoreland
Foil, replied Jo the pointed question—“ Please
sir, I be Patty Jones, o’ Welsleddale, an’ this
is our Bv»b an’ our Pegg, an’ we’se ga’nn to
Penrith*to- see our Nuncv,an* we ihowl we’d
just come in an see what ve were macken,
an’ git a rest.” —Carlisle Patriot.
A romantic young lady fell the other day
into the river, and was near drowning but
succor being fortunately at hand, she was
drawn out senseless and carried home. On
corning to, she declared to her family that
she must marry him who had saved her.
“Impassible,” said her papa.
“What, is he already married ?”
“No.”
“Wasn’t it that interesting young man,
who lives here in our neighborhood ?”
‘•Dear me, no—it was a Newfoundland
dng.”
Wash cr I
I—Uncleanliness is a breeder of
sin. We care not how professedly pious n
man may be, lei his bide gel crusied wrh
dirt, and very soon his mind, manner and
morals will become tainted. A bar of soap
'\ould do more in many families towards the
cause of “pure nnJ undefiled religion,” than
a bundle of tracts; and if ever the heathen
of our cities are brought to a knowledge of
the gospel, it will be through the instrumen
tality «>f cheap bithing and washing houses,
as much as through fashionable churches.-
So wash up!
A countryman entered Whipple’s da
guerreotype saloon recently, and wished a
daguerreotype of his uncle.
“I can do it, sir, but wh*»re is he ?”
*’o, he’s dead,’* was the simple reply ;
“but I’ve got a description of ftim in an old
passport."
“Oh, Mr. Grabbles !" exclaimed a young
mother, ‘Shouldn't you like to have a family
of rosy children about \our knee?"
“No, ma’amj” said the disagreeable old
bachelor: “I’d rather have a lot of yellow
‘boys in my pocket.”
A worthy minister noted for his wit, on
being asked what kind of a person the wife
of Mr. was, replied, “I will give you her
grammatical character. She is a noun sub
stantive,—seen, felt and heard.”
Thai which is past is irrevocable, and wise
men have enough to do with things present
und to come 1 ; therefore, they do but trifle
wilh themselves that labor in past matters.—

relieves pain; and in many cases of long standing

lost by the old process ol boiling. Hence it requires
great care and skilful management to prepare this

the Burning of the Iron Readings Fkb.
27,1657. ‘ j [‘
“The •undersigned, members af the committee,do
respectfully report, that wo saw the two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by Farrels &|Herring and Evans
&, Watson, 'placed side by side in a furnace, viz;
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadel
pliia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
at Heading, manufactured by Farrels &. tierring,
and the safe in use by H. A. Lab lx, in his store,
manufactured by Evans & Watson,and putinbooks
and papers precisely alike. j
The fire was started at o’clock, A. M,, and
kept up until four cords of greep hickory v lwo cords
dry oak and half chestnut top ’wood were entirely
consumed, the whole under tbq superintendence of
the subscribers, members of the Committee. The
Safes were then coolyd off wiljj water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to H. A. Lanlz’s
store for public examination,|after they
examined and marked by the Committee. The
book« and papers taken from tfte Safe manufactured
by Evans &. Watson were but! slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those |takcn from the Safe
manufactured by. Farrels & Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans & Warson's Safe.
We believe the above to hWc been a fair and Im
partial trial of the respective dualities of both Safes.
