Resolved, That the Democrats of the First ward

Pnicn on Pnor-un’n’ IN H'Anmsnnna.—On Fri»
day evening the Union Hotel property, consisting
of the hotel proper and the ground upon which it
stands, and two small frame buildings, and the
ground upon which they stand, adjoining the hotel,
located in Market street, near Third, were sold in
one lot, under the hammer, to Mr. William Brei—
finger, for the sum of $16,300.
This is an evidence of the rapid increase in the
price of property in our city. The Union Hotel,
and all its appurtenances, might have been bought
gt private sale ten years ago for very little over
one-third of the money which it now brings at a
public sale, at I. time, too, whenzthcre is a general
complaint of a. scarcity of money. The Union has
always been a favorite market stand, or inn for
countrymen, and has at all times enjoyed a. good
run of custom.
Mr. Breitinger has fol some years kept the res
taurant at the corner of the alley, a. little Below the
hotel; which he always kept in such a manner as
to command patronage—the extent of which may
be inferred from his ability to buy the hotel. _ If. is
likely that Mr. Breitinger will, as soon as he takes
ohlrge, enlarge the Union, the only complaint
against it being that it is too small for the accom
modation of all the custom ofi‘ued.
11031!an or ADAMS’ Exmnss.—ln our paper of
Saturday we noticed the fact that $3,000 had been
extracted from a package of $9,445, while in tran
aim between Baltimore and Hagerstown, and slip:
of paper inserted in the package in lieu of the
money, end that the company had made good the
loss to the Bank of Hagerstown. The whole per
tieulars connected with the robbery were known
as fur back he Wednesday, but at the request of
certain parties it was kept quiet until it became
town-talk.
Immediately after 'Jthe robbery Col. Binghnrn,
the President, Capt. Williams, the Superintendent,
and Mr. Houston, the Agent of the Company in
this eity, went to work to ferret out the matter.
Afters thorough investigation it was found that the
opening of the package took place in thie city on‘
Sunday, and suspicion pointed strongly to n young
men med Oliver Simmons, a meleenger in the
employ of the company.
Unwilling to make a direct charge, the officers
laid .‘ trap for him. This they were fortunately
ennbled to do in consequence of all the notes taken
having :1 peculiar marl: upon them. They gave
notice It all business places of this fact, and has“:
one of the notes woe deposited at one of our hnuke
by the keeper of a. lager beer saloon.
This trace-l the robbery direct .to young Sim
mons, who, when confronted by Col. Bingham, not
hoiledged the crime. When asked. what he had
done with the money, he said that he had spen
thirty dollars, had fifteen on hand, and had burned
the rug in Wetzel’s slump. He told Col. Binghaln
where he hsd spent the money, and also _took him
to the place where he burned the balance, and
showed him the ashes and fragmen ts ofnotea, which
fully eatiefied the Colonel that what he lied said
11l true. He recovered the notes epent by Sim
mom, end but! him committed to jail.
It is alleged, and generally believed, that Sim
mom in partially insane, and this belief is strength
onod by the fact that ho'was once, for a time, eon-
Inud in the Sale Lunatic Asylum. Notwithstand
in: “Ii”: there was evidently much “method in his
Mam.” as it. is alleged that he did nol: burn' the
notes until he heard that they had a peculiar mark
11ml! “lam which Would be likely to lead to the
detection of the robber.
It'is said that the Company will not proceed
41in“ Simmons. If they knew of his insanity,
and .ntrustad him with keys of office and safe that
8'79 him access to large s‘fm of money, it would
be injustice to prficeed against. him, since it would
take an exceedingly well-balanced mind to resist
snob '- temptatm-
The proof being made to the bank that the money
has been destroyed, and the numbers of the notes
bowing all been preserved by register, there will
probably be a reissue, and tho company will lose
very little in the and.

the employ of the Express company, and for whom

Lunatic Asylum. - .
Tau FORGERY.-—Th 6 New York Tribune, and ‘
the other little cuts like the Harrisburg Telegraph
that. yelp at its heels, have been very much exer- I
ci'sed at unelleged forged speech which we clipped .
from one of our exchange papers and pflblismd
some four weeks ago. An efi‘ort was made to foist the
onus‘of the original publication upon “’9 ano’l
AND UNION, although it was running the “"qu Of
the papers for weeks undcuiedy before we clzpped
it.
And, after all,what does it amount to? The
; sentiments in that atloged forged speech are the
I very sentiments uttered in the streets of the prin
i cipul towns of Pennsylvania in 1855 by many who
' were Know Nothings then, but who are Republi—
I can lenders now. Turn to the files of the Opposi-
E mm papers of 1555', and sentiments fully as «um
i cious as those alleged to have been uttered by Wit
-5 sun will be found published in them.
; But we can tome down later. On the occasion
3 of the ratification meeting of Curtin, held in Phil
adelphia, Dave Taggart, who plays the clown for
the Opposition whenever occasion requires it, made
a dirty fling at the foreigners, “and especially those
who don’t ate mate on Pride-y.” That was the
last of it, for we find them now just where we pre
dicted five years ago they would be during the
present Presidential campaign—on their knees,
begging for the foreign v'ote. .
The publisher of the Telegraph is himself a for—
eigner—a German, and we can appreciate the mo
tives that would induce him to make his readers
believe that his party are the friends of the Ger
mum, and yet W 6 find the following paragraph in
a late issue of his paper :
Sum; THEY Caster—Another swarm of filthy
Foreign l’agranta, recently vomited upon our»
shores, perambul’ated the'streets to-day soliciting
aims. We fed one of them, and the base ingrate
then abused as for not giving him money also. Such
fellows deserve kicks instead of copper-s, and they
should be denied even the poor privilege of lodge
ing in the lock-up or prison. Soon they willcome
hither in swarms, as usual at this season, in search
of winter quarters,and the poor house will be filled
to overflowing with permanent boarders at the pub—
lic expense, while the prison will be crowded with
nightly lodgers of the same class. More than two
thirds of the vagrants and pauper: who fill our
aims—houses, are foreigners 5 and it costs the hard
working, tax-paying people of this country an im
mense sum, annually ,for their maintenance, as the
statistics of these institutions, here and everywhere
show.
These are the kind of articles that appeared al
most daily in the Telegraph about the publisher’s
countrymen ,without. any regard to truth whatever,
until within a. month of the October election,while
the filthy negroes, at least eight. hundred of whom
live by stealing and begging, were permitted to go
soot-free.
Hnumamsu m nu: anuwms.—The ll"ar(¢l
opens a. lengthly lament over the “progress of
heathenism in the city” as follows:
It is a note-worthy fact that in the lower part of
the Fifteenth ward there are now no less than live
church edifices for sale. In the words below the
number of churches have been continually dimin
ishing, so that now in the First there is butane,
Trinity; in the Second but three; in the Third but
two, St. Paul’s and the Roman Gaoholic, St. Peter’s;
in the Fourth but three; in the Seventh, with a.
population of 35,000, but six, and they are so small
as to be able to accommodate only 5,000 persons;
and the Eleventh, with a population of 80,000, has
church accommodations for only ten thousand.
During the last twenty years, thirty-two churches
have been sold out below Grand street, and no
others have been erected in their places. though,
notwithstanding all the enoronchments of business,
the resident population below that line is now far
larger than then.
A. correspondent of the Buffalo Commercial
thinks also that morality is on the decline in “ the
city,” and strangely enough draws an argument
from the brief history of the World itself:
Talking of bogus morality and all that—by the
way, the whole newspaper world is in a broad grin
over the falling away from grace of the World,
which was started, as you know, as a. sort of re
ligions journal, which should ignore the pomps
and vanities at: the,wicked state of being and “all
the sinful lust: of the flesh.” It would not print
theatrical advertisements. It would not touch lot
tery notices with a. fortyfoot pole. Bulls were
tabooed and the proprietors could not be persuaded
to print a horse race 'for love or money. But
though three months have scarcely passed since the
baby was born, the experiment has been given up,
88 one of the things that won’t pay—in New York——
where “the world, the flesh and the devil” have it
pretty much all their own way. The World has
become worldly; it not only tells its readers what
is going on in the theatres, but devoted three or
four columns, the other day, on the page usually
reserved for “ Religious _ Intelligence,” to the
Grand Ball to the Baron, at the Academy ;rit even
oondesoends to talk of Flora Temple and Patohen,
and to-day I see it chronicles the foot that there is
a fair prospect of another set-to between two well
known pugilists. '
Tue myriad leaves which every gust whirls along
our paths are typical of human life. A few weeks
since these faded and falling leaves were as fresh
as the hues of the rose tin Beauty’s cheek. But the
Destroyer passed by the grove and his breath chilled
the sensitive foliage, and' it dropped and fell to the
ground to perish by slow decay. How forcibly its
{ate reminds us of that of multitudes of fellow
creatures, many of whom were lovelier in our eyes
and far dearer to our hearts than the most beautiful
of earthly landscapes. Sad as were our thoughts
when _we witnessed the changes which disease had
wrought in the oountenanees of our friends, the
period will certainly arrive when we shall rejoice
to greet them in forms of surpassing loveliness.
For that the loved and lost- shall again be folded
to our bosome, is plainly taught in the volume of
inspiration, and is faintly shadowed forth in the
lessons of Nature. As the trees which are being
deepoiled of their verdure by the frosts of Autumn,
will again gladdeu our eyes by budding afresh in
the early spring, so shall those whom we have seen
fading away he quiekened into life in the morning
of the resurrection, and crowned with resplendent
beauty.

Amuse-r or 0315 on: nu: Cnnmox Conxu’ Mun—
nnnnns.—lt will he remembered that on the night
of the 2d of September, Mr. Jacob Lewis, of Cal
leuburg, Clarion county, was killed and Mr. Eli
M’Oall wounded by pistol shots fired by two men
calling themselves Charley Logue and Ira Davis,
who had been committing some depredntions in the
vioinity, and for whom the gentleman named had
been lying in wait. Officer Hague, of Pittsburg,
who had been in search of the murderers for some
days, on Friday telegraphed to the' Mayor from
La Porte, Indiana, that he had succeeded in or
resting one of the murderers and. would arrive
with him at 3 o’clock on Sunday morning. The
name of the man is Thomas Shotwell, we believe:
and the onecalling himself Logno in Clarion oonnty'
Chief of the Police Hague, becomes, by this or—
rest, entitled to a handsome reward.
Ann-nn-Ksnnn Bncnxvns rm: AMERICAS PRE
ssx-r.—Our Beyrout correspondent. writes, says the
Boston Traveler, that the arrival of the beautiful
case of heavily siver mounted Colt’s revolvers, with
a box containing over two thousand‘cartridges, from
the President of the United States, as a. present to
Abdvel—Kader, created some sensation there. It
was on exhibition for several days at the United
States Consulate, end the pistols were greatly ad—
mired. 'l‘he present is worth about $l,OOO, and was
accompaied by a complimentary letter to the Al
gerine Chief. The old hero was much afi'ected upon
the remWtion of this unexpected appreciation of his
lsizantmne efi'orts by the government of the United
es.

lIARBISBUBG, As Smut in: A NEW YORKER.—A
correspondent of the New York Journal of Com
mci'ce, writing from this city under date of the 22d
inst, gives a. long and interesting letter, from
which we extract the following:
Harrisburg appears like an English city, or like
several to be seen in New England; though the
grounds are less spacious, and there are less trees
and shrubbery than is common in the Eastern
cities. The surrounding hills and mountains re
mind one, too, of the cities of New England.
The State Capitol, consisting of three brick
buildings instead of one as in the Eastern States,
makes an imposing appearance, especially with the
elevated site, commanding a fine View of the Sua
quchanna, and of an extensive hill countrY- We
found Gov. Packer busily engaged with his duties
—in his West room, and apparently undisturbed
by the political changes. The room, whose entire
walls are adorned With well executed portraits of
Fail: Governors of the State, including those of the
three Penns, Franklin, Hamilton, Bigler, (lace is
worthy of». visit from the passing traveler.
The State Library finds an excellent and attain.
tivo Librarian in Rev. Dr. W. R. DeWitt‘. It con
tains 25,000 volumes; and the portiOn of it devo
ted to law books is said to contain the rarest and
best collection to be found in this country.
Some years ago the New School Presbyterian
Church of Harrisburg lost its church by fire. Since
that event, on Old School Church has gone out
from’it, and has recently erected a. stone church of
high cost. Thc body they left, has also created a.
micro costly edifice of brick. They add much to
the beauty of the city. Moved by the spirit of im—
provement the Episcopalians are renovating their
church at a very considerable expense. The Lu-‘
therans have a. good church, and are sustaining,
besides, a missionary enterprise. The German
Reformed Church is prosperous; and so are one or
two other churches.
Union prayer meetings are maintained in Her
risburg on Tuesday and Saturday afternoon. The
meetings are profitable, and well attended.
» The principal points of interest to a. stranger in
Harrisburg are the State House and Arsenal, the
delightful residences upon Front street, bordering
on the Susquehanna, the cemetery, the spacious
State Asylum for the Insane, and the most elegant
of the churches.
By invitation of Rudolph F. Kelker, Esq., I
rode to Lebanon, northward enty—five miles from
Harrisburg, in his private carriage. There was a
third genial friend from Baltimore. We passed
through the beautiful Lebanon Valley, celebrated
for its superior farms and fine scenery. This is a
limestone region, and the soil is of the first quality
for wheat and corn—the staple grains produced in
Pennsylvania. A mile from the State capital land
can now he purchased for $l,OOO per acre. The
farms in the Valley are carefully cuttivatod, and
very large hams, celled hank barns, with a front
overshot, under which cattle may be sheltered
while in the barn-yard, abound. The value of
these forms is somewhat surprising to NeW‘En
glenders. A farm of 200 acres, with the necessary
buildings, is worth $25,000; whereas such a farm
in New England is not valued above $5,000 or‘
$lO,OOO. Both houses and burns are often built of
lime-stone obtained there. And when the soil be
comes exhausted, lime-stones are burnt. and ground
to powder, and the product is spread upon the land
for a. topdressing.
During our drive we passed hundreds of these
excellent farms, all in a high state of oultivation,‘
and in excellent. order. They are generally owned
and cultivated by Germans,aud more independent
farmers cannot be found in this country.
It may he observed, that runny persons of con
siderable wealth. residing in such places as Harris
burg, Lancaster and Lebanon, have their property
principally in farms, which they either carry on
themselves, or rent to tenants. They have not the
opportunity to invest in the various stocks, like
the wealthy capitalist, residing in a. large commer
cial city. From their farms they obtain only
about 4- per cent. on the capital invested, whereas
he who invests in our large cities, obtains, on an
average, at least, 6 per cent. Hence, a. wealthy
owner of farms has not so much ready money as
the owner of real estate and stocks in our principal
cities. '
0n Sabbath afternoon the 14th inst", a. Union
meeting of the various Evangelical denominations
was held in the German Reformed Church of Her—
risburg, in behalf of the Southern Aid Society.—
Several of the city pastors assisted in the devo
tional exercises, and the Boston Secretary gave an
address, advocating the claims of the institution,
which was favorably received. The society has
been but little known in Central and Western Penn
aylvania ; but as the people understand its merits,
they are extending to it active sympathy.
GAME Lewsr-From the frequent streetworner
discussions on the existing gnme'lnws, it is very
evident that they are imperfectly understood; and
that the section against killing inseefiverous birds
is daily violated, in known to every man of intol
ligenee in the city. Why cannot our gunners
form a. club, having for its object the preservation
of game, and the enforcing of the law to its full
extent? Surely any one must: Eee the advantage of
such an association. The following is the act and
supplement new in force:
An Act for the better_ Preservation of Game and Insec
, nverous Birds. '

Read the following from the 156 w York Courier :
Exonuons Bosmxsa you 02m NEW Your; MERCHANT.—
We are happy to inform our fellaw—citizens that there is
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country mer'chant,‘can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality.
We do not intend to give an elaborate description of this
merchant’s extensive business, although it will well re
pay any stranger or citizen to visit Unomao Womm’s
extensive warehouse, Nos. 18, 20 and 22, Beaver street
and NOB 17, 19 and 21, Marketfleld street. His stock 0%
Schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not have
been less than thirty thousand cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1836 to 1856,- and ten
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wines,
Scotch and Irish Whisky, Jamaica and St. Croix Rum,
some very old and equal to any in this country. He also
had three large cellars, filled with Brandy, W ines, &c.,
in casks, under Custom-House key, ready for bottling.
Mr. WOLPE’S sales of Schnapps last year amounted to
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope in
less than two years he may be equally successf mth
his Brandies and Wines. \
His business merits the patronage of every lover or
his species. Private families who wish pure Wines and
Liquors for medical use should send their orders direct
to Mr Wows, until every Apothecary in tlie land make
up their minds to discard the poisonous stufl‘ from their
shelves, and replace it. with WOLFE’S pure Wings and
LIQUOBS. .. ‘
We understand Mr. Won-z, for the accommodation cf
smsll dealers in the country, puts up assorted cues of
Wines and Liquors. Such a. mu, and such a. merchant,
should be sustained against his tens of thousands of op.
ponenta in the United States, who sell nothing but imi
tations, ruinous alike to human health and happiness.
