TES VERNAL EQUlNOX.—Yesterday occurred
the vernal equinox, .when by the laws of na
ture the day and night were of equal length,
the sun rising at six o'clock in the morning
and setting at six o'clock in the evening. For
several days there will be no perceptible differ
ence in the length of the period between the
rising and setting of the sun, but afterwards
the days will gradually lengthen until the
twenty-first day of June, when the summer
solstice will be reached and the sun will again
approach towards the equator. After the equi
nox the weather generally becomes more set
tled, and the work of the husbandman begins
for the year.

Tna Flamm OF ma CITY are under oblige-,
tions to Messrs Patterson of Juniata, Wilson of
Beaver, and Heck of Dauphin, for the zeal and
ability with which they advocated the propo
sition to appropriate each of the companies
one hundred dollars. The "boys" richly de
serve all the compliments paid them by the
above-named gentlemen, for no city of the
same size in the Union can boast a more pa
triotic and glEcient body of firemen. Consider
ing the extent and value of the property in
this city owned by the State, on which there is
not a dollar of insurance, we think the Legisla
ture made a mistake in refusing to grant the
appropriation asked.
.-••••••- , •4/.--.......
114 BAD TAMIL The coarse assault of the
Lock Haven Watchman upon Wm. H. Arm
strong, Esq., one of the Representatives
from that district. No constituency in the
State is represented with more dignity, ability
and fidelity than the people of Lyerening coon : .
ty, and they have just reason to be proud of
their faithful and efficient representative. We
have noted the course of the Watchman for
some time past, and are forced to the conclu
sion that its imprudent and impolitic course is
doing more to damage the Republican party
of Clinton county, than the Democratic paper
possibly can do. Our political friends in that
county better have no "organ" atoll than such
a one as they are now inflicted with; and this
we know to be the sentiment of a large num
ber of them with whom we have conversed
lately.
DBATIL—The following is from Cumming's
"Great Preparation," drat series : "Everywhere
there is death. Is it not a remarkable fact
that there is nothing that you can plant, or
build, or lay aside, that death in some of his
formulas does not instantly set upon ? Build
walls of granite, and they, decay and what is
decay? the breath of death will instantly be
gin to act upon them. Build your 'Rouses of
Parliament of stone.selected by the best judges,
and death with his fangs is alreedy gnawing
into dust the fabric that cost millions of the
nation's wealth. The sweetest flowers that
burst into bloom will no sooner reach their full
bloom and beauty than death will breathe up
on them, and they will wither and be resolved
into earth again. All that man builds, all
that nature throws up from her bosom, all that
is fragrant in the depths, all are under the re
gime of decay, disease and death."
Twa POLITIOIAN.-It is a pretty true Saying
that the politician wbo lives by his "profes
sion" must kiss the foot of every man in the
Commonwealth. He who would climb the lad
der of politics must first go down from his po
sition as a man, to begin to come up as the
other thing. Intrigue, deceit, treachery, are
too often absolute requirements to accomplish
an individual in this bnsiness. The following
description, from Irving's Salimagundi, is as
true at this day as ever it was ; "To rise in
this country a man must first descend. The as
piring politican may be compared to that inde
fatigable Virginia insect called the tumbler,
which buries itself in filth, and works ignobly
in the dirt, until it forms a little ball, which it
rolls laboriously along like Diogenes in his tub
—sometimes head, sometimes tail, foiemost—
pilfering from every rat and mud hole, and in
creasing tie ball of greatness by the contribu
tions of the kennel. Jost so the candidate for
greatness. He plunges himself in the mob,
labors in dirt and oblivion, and makes unto
himself the rudiments of a popular name from
the admiration and praises of the vulgar. His
name once started, onward he goes, struggling
and puffing and pushing it before him ; collect
ing new tributes from the dregs and offals of
society as he proceeds, until having gathered
together a mighty mass of popularity, he
mounts it in ; triumph, is hoisted into office,
and becomes a great man, and a ruler in the
laud."
Soap Emsme.—Mr. Henry Backe nstoss, a farm
er of West Hanover township, brought to this
city to-day a sheep raised by him, which
weighed two hundred and one pounds. It was
purchased'by Mr. Nicholas Reamshart for the
sum of ten dollari.
Fk:stais Taus.--Yesterday we noticed the ar
rest of .a drunken Irish woman, who had in her
possession two webs of calico and other articles,
supposed to have been stolen The property
was subsequently identified by Messrs. _Eppley
and Nnsbaunt;from whose stores they had been
taken. The woman was committed to await a
trial f9r larceny..
THE COST OF larroArroN.—Among the cases
disposed of in the Court of Common Pleas this
week, was that of Jacob Hartrhan vs. Benjamin
Koppenheffer. This was an action of ejectment
for something less than an acre of land in the
upper end of the county, worth about fifteen
dollars. The jury rendered a verdict in favor
of the defendant. We learn that the costs in
the case amount to over five hundred dollars !
Krim ROUTE AGENT.—According to general
rumor Mr. George B. Ayres, formerly of this
city, has been appointed mail route agent on
the Cumberland Valley 'Railroad between here
and Cliambersburg. There were several appli
cants for the position, and among • the disap
pointed is one who thought he had "a sure
thing of it." In the language of the old song,
"doubtful things are mighty uncertain." We
sympathize with our Republican friends who
are "left oat in the cold," and wish them bet
ter bick neat time.
"TURNIP Juice" CRAMPAGNE.—The drinkers
of spirituous beverages have long had reason to
suspect the purity of fluids they swallowed, but
we imagine few drinkers ever •thought them
selves victims of turnip juice. The fact, how
ever, was disclosed in the Court of Sessions of
New York last week, when a witness in a cer
tain case. testified =that fife wine which had
been sold by him, while in the employ of the
defendant, was made of what was called "tur
nip jnice." . This was "made to sparkle by gas
made from vitriol and marble dust, and then
labelled champagne." No wonder that intem
perate persons so often die prematurely.
A llrr.—The Altoona Tribune indulges in the
following fling at our "patriotic young men,"
and the item contains more truth than poetry :
SPASMODIO.—The military spirit of the HU
dab:tigers. Every time the citizen soldiery of
the surrounding country give them a grand
exhibition of the "pomp and circumstances of
glorious war," we have rumors of several new
companies being formed by the patriotic young
men of that place, but in less than a month
the thing is flat in the mud.
Exactly I The Zouave fever, which raged
for a brief period, has already died out ; and
the permanent organization and equipment of
the "Cavalry Squadron" has been postponed
indefinitely. As regards the Cameron Guard,
it is difficult to muster men enough to make a
respectable parade once in a year. Playing
soldier is an expensive amusement in which
our "patriotic young men" have - EbTilid - ideli- -
nation or the means to indulge. It won't
"pay" these hard times.
A GOOD Movsmarr.—The custom of attend
ing funerals for the purpose of getting a gra
iuitous carriage ride, and enjoying one's self
in a "promiscuous manner generally," has be
come so annoying and scandalous in a neigh
boring city, that several beneficial societies
have adopted resolutions not to attend funerals
unless the number of "mourners" be restricted
to the immediate family, of the fiecedent. Un
der the system .practised in Harrisburg and
other cities, funerals are very expensive affairs.
People of limited means are taxed beyond their
ability to pay, in order to accommodate, with
a "free ride" to the cemetery, persons who
make it a point to attend all funerals for that
express purpose. The custom is a ridiculous
one, imposing heavy burdens upon the`poor,
and ought to be abolished here, as it has been
in most of the principal office.
TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN THE PITTSBURG PRISON.
—A PRISONER MURDERED BY A SUPPOSED LUNA
TIO.—The county in Pittsburg was the scene
of a most extraordinary and bloody tragedy
yesterday morning, the particulars of which
are detailed by the . Chronicle of last evening, as
follows
A man named John Lewis, committed for va
grancy by Esquire Jancey, of Lawrenceville,
was murdered in cold blood by a fellow named
Andrew McMullenovith whom he had had
no previous acquaintance, and to whom no
provocation, whatever, was given for the com
mission of the dreadful deed. It , appears that
McMullen is of unsound mind, and some two
years since was before the Court on a charge
of assault and battery.. The testimony show
ing, however, that the man was a lunatic, a
verdict of acquittal in his case was rendered,
and he was ordered to be sent to the Hospital
for safe keeping. He remained there till about
three months since, when he was discharged,
apparently cured, and since then he has been
leading a dissolute life, passing a part of his
time in jail, and the balance among his friends,
some of whom are said'to be well to do and re
spectable citizens. Saturday morning he was
committed for drunkenness and disorderly con
duct, but at the time he gave no indications that
his old malady had returned, or that his mind
was in the least disturbed. He was placed in
cell No. 13 on the ground floor, and every
night since he has had one or more persona
to sleep with him.
Last night the deceased was brought in and
taken to McMullen's cell, where he was locked
up for the night. He did not appear to be
drunk at the time, and demeaned himself like
a quiet, inoffensive man. During the night
great noise prevailed in the cell, but unfortu
nately the man on guard failed to hear it, and
no attempt was-therefore made to ascertain the
cause from which it proceeded. The fact, how
ever revealed itself this morning, when the
turnkey came to unlock the door. On the bed
inside lay stretched the body of the unfortu
nate Louis, his face covered with blood, and
features so disfigured that recognition was
barely possible. He was still living, but so
near his end that but some three quarters of
as hour elapsed ere his spirit had departed for
another world. Near him stood McMullen, ap
parently contemplating his bloody work. He
had a piece of stick in his hand, which was
covered with the gore of his victim, and looked
stolidly on while the turnkeys shrunk with
horror from the bloody spectacle before them.
In reply to the interrogatories of one of them,
he merely answered that he beat the deceased
because he could not speak German,. and de
clined sayingmp. ' removed
another cell, , while hiiiiviotkm;Wati washed and
a physician sent 'for, but before le could k
ilt ii'be had died.

Now Is THE TIME to plant trees and grape
vinee. Those who have such work to do should
give it their attention.
Pocirwrs PICKSD.—Last night two ladlias,
while passing out of Brant's Hall, after the
"show," were relieved of their money-purses.
Now-a-days, when pick-pockets infest every
place where large crowds of'people congregate,
ladles, and gentlemen too, who visit shows and
conceits, should leave their money at home.
Ix Luox.—Our clevei and good looking co
temporary of the Clearfield Bailsman, Mr. Rowe,
has been appointed by the Postmaster General
a through route agent between Philadelphia and
the West. Mr. Samuel B. Lauffer, of this city,
at present a clerk in the Surveyor General's of
fice, was an applicant for the same position.—
Having failed in this, Sam will no doubt try
his luck again. He deserves a '!fat take," and
we hope he will get it.
A HARD " CAim."—A tramping typo, with
dilapidated apparel, a " battered form," and
completely "out of sorts," came here yester
day, got on an extra load of tanglefoot, and
this morning was found "rolling" about the
streets in a drunken condition. Officer Wick
ert took him to prison, and placed him behind
the "cross bars" of that institution, where he
will have an opportunity to get sober, "com
pose" his mind, and indulge in profitable re
flection. '
Tan OLD STABS AND STRIPES.—When every
State has adopted its ,distinctive flag, every
county its banner and --every town its pennon,
the old stirs and stripes will float majestically
above them all, and inspire more respect ,than
all the rest. Like the scene described in Scott's
poem of Idarmion
"In air
A thousand streamers floated fair,
Various In shape, device and hue,
Green, sanguine, purple, 'red and blue ;
Broad, narrow, swallow-tailed and square,
Scroll, pennon, pencil, bandrof, there
O'er the pavilions flew ;
Highest and hindmost was descried
The Royal Banner floating wide."
The SUN GOING OUT. —There are now more
spots on the sun than have been seen for many
years ; some of these are visible through a
smoked glass to the naked eye. Several stars
—some of them of great brilliancy, which, from
their ascertained distance, must have been as
large as our sun—have totally disappeared from
the sky ; and the question has been raised
among astronomers whether the, light and
heat of the sun are fading away. As this
would be accompanied by the destruction of all
plants and animals on the earth, it is rather an
interesting question. The sun's light and heat
are diminished by the dark spots at the present
time about one per cent.
l'opinan Sorms.—While thousands of songs
have been published, very few comparatively
survive. Some fall still-born from the press,
some linger for a few days, and some hold out
a little longer. It is rare, indeed, to find one
outlasting its generation 4. even.the ,great ma,
jority of Moore's have "died and made no
sign." Those of Bayley perished still- more
rapidly. The lyrics of no song-writer survive
to those of the extent of Burns. Of living
songs the beat of his and a few older ones are
nearly 'all that remain. Time has winnowed
the bad, the indifferent, and the ordinarily good
away, till only those are left which approtiinate
towards perfection. How much better it would
be if those old lyrics, which bear the approval
of ages, were oftener sung! We do not com
prehend how ladies of culture can patronise the
trashy songs which lumber up their music
racks, vitiate their own taste, and outrage the
ears of their listeners. We are, atieast,certain
that if they would sing the really good songs
the language affords, there would be less talk
ing while they were at the piano, and probably
more sincere lovers at their feet.
USA ,or TOBACCO en Parsons —We wonder
how the prisoners in our county jail would like
to be deprived of the use of tobacco and segars ?
Such a regulation migh be adopted for sanitary
reasons, as well as to form a part of prison pun
ishment by cutting off the "luxuries of life."
About two years since, the Inspectors of the
Philadelphia County Prison prohibited, the use
of tobacco in that institution. Since - that
time, the physician of the prison has given
much time in testing the question whether it can
be withdrawn'at once without injury to those
who have been accustomed to its use from youth
to old age. It was feared, says thedoctor, "by
some philanthropic persons, that its sudden
withdrawal would Mince a mania similar to
mania-a potu, dyspepsia, and a large catalogue
of nervous complaints. The sudden disuse of
tobacco, opium, alcoholic stimulants, &a, es
pecially when shut up in a cell, must of neces
sity make the prisoner feel the want of them
as a =eat privation ; but why give him tobac
co, and refnstyte others
_luxuries,:the want of
which is deemed as great a privation to them
as tobacco is to the chewer and smoker ? At
one time large quantities of opium were given,
under the erroneous idea that it was Judispen.
sable ; as some now believe that' Mania-a-potu
cannot be successfully treated without the' ad
ministration of stimulants in the form of spirit
ous liquors." The doctor-further states, "that
after having watched its effects carefully, be is
strengthened in the opinion formerly given,
that tobacco is simply a luxury, and its use a
bad habit. It is in no way necessary to life, as
the health of mitny of the prisoners improved,
and certainly not one of them was injured by
the prohibition, and he knows of no good and
substantial reason why it should be given in
any case ; and in this opinionniany other phy
sicians having penal and reformatory institu
tions under their own agree." The doctor also
says, "that he can allow for the sympathies and
prejudices of old smokers and chewers, but at
the same time he haino hesitation in concur
ring in the conclusions of Dr. Morat, that the
mass of positive testimony accumulated in India
and elsewhere as to the absence of any ill ef
fects from the cessation of the use of tobacco,
even in those habituated to it ftom infancy,
shows that it is not needed for the performance
of any healthy function in the human stomach,

fords ne pleasure to announce the appointment
of our old-time friend, Wm. P. L Painter, Esq.,
formerly one of the editors of the Muncy Lumi
nary, to the office of Superintendent of Public
Printing. The nomination was sent to the
Senate this morning and promptly confirmed.
He will enter upon the discharge of his official
duties immediately. We have known Mr.
Painter long rind intimately, and heartily en
dorse his appointment, confident that he will
make one of the most efficient and useful Su
perintendents that has ever filled that position.
RAILROAD AGOIDENT.—MALL AND BAGGAGE
BURNED.—The mail train on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which left Pittsburg for this city on
Wednesday evening, was detained several
hours by an accident which occurred this aide
of Altoona. It appears that as the train was
passing along near the small town of Peterr
burg, there were some cattle upon the track,
and the engine could not be stopped until it
had come in contact with one of the animals.
The locomotive was damaged and the baggage
and mail cars thrown from the track. The
baggage and mail car then took fire from the
stove, and the mail matter, together with the
baggage of about eighty passengers, was de
stroyed. Only a few remnants of the mail
were saved and brought to this city. We are
glad to state that no lives were lost, nor were
any of the passengers or employees injured.
