ily, the most necessary to be properly un
derstood, of all sciences, and whereas, it is
also an admitted fact, that in "union there
is strength," consequently a united action
on our part, cannot hut be of the greatest
benefit to the farming community. not only
in . n theoretical, but at the same time, in a
'practical point of view, in collecting infor

The Sinking Fund,
The following in regard to the report of
the COMILISSICOICTS of the-Sinking Fund,"
we take from the Philadelphia Sun:
So much was said dining the recent gub
ernatorial canvass in disparagctinent of Gov.
Johnston's Sinking Fund ; so many sneers
were directed against it ns a “humbug," and
SO many falsifications were committed as to
practical workings and bencfi:s, that we
.have looked with much solicitude for the first
kltriennial repott of the Commissioners of the
Fund, and we arc enabled to lay it before
our readers this morning having personally
taken the trouble to copy it front the rapt' U:s
in the Slate Senate, in preference to await
ing the slow process of being printed by leg
islative authority. The Commissioners of
the Sinking Fund are by law the Secretary
of the Commonwealth, Auditor General
and State Treasurer: they have made the
report, to which we ask attention, and as
the last two are politically opposed to Gov
ernor Johnston, the important evidences
which they nfford of the utility of the Fund,
'will not we trust be discredited by the in
/
tcoming administration of Gov. LVg,ler, nor
be permitted to be impaired by any such
sophistical arguments and ha :less state
ments as Col. J. Russ Snowden has seen
proper to invent concerning the financial
-affairs of the Commonwealth.
From a 'Airmail of the report it will be seen
ghat the total amount of loans purchased
s.,inciphe Sinking Fund . went into operation
was $059,122 9S, and that at the commence
ment of the year there was a balance of
.815,309438 in the fund so that the to
ut of its operations has been $704,4:32 30.
—Although this amount of reduction of
the State Debt is small compared with
the gross indebtedness, being somewhere
in the ratio of 1 to 57, still it is cheer
ing to know that a commencement has been
..made.—The evidence of a willingness on
the part of Pennsylvania to apply certain
sources of revenue. and set them apart
nvith fidelity, atust tend to elevate her cred
it and wipe from remeMberance the former
zins of financial repujiation. Never in the
history of the Commonoealth has there

Message, "citizens of the State asu:.2 front
'other sources of contentment, have at last
'realized that n cause of disquiet, which has
for ;the last twenty-five years oppressed

has been in the practical liquidation of the
Public Debt :
Dec. 1, '4B, the total debt $10,8 , 12,379 21

, Thus within the last three years, there
has been effected a reduction of upwards of
seven hundred thousand dollars of indebt
edness, Without impairing the efficiency of
`the public works, or retarding any plans of

according to a policy of wise economy, have

'Governer does riot 'hesitate to attribute this
important result to the successful operation

A Wife of Three Husbands.
Mrs. Gertrude Kohler, a lady of Ger
man extraction, was charged with making,
atithmeti,tal mistake by retaining,
two husbands more than the regular and
legal allowance. Mrs. K. was married to
Christopher Phelni, in Carlisle, live
years ago. Two years ago shit removed to
Lancaster, forgetting to take her husband
iimmur her other ba, , gton , , and, in a very
short dine she contracted a matrimonial al
liance with a Lancaster man, named AI ich
ael Gephard. "One more remove," as
Hamlet says, and we find her in Philadel
phia, Alessrs. l'heltz and Uephard aban
doned and forgotten, and the capricious
lady in matrimonial copartnership with Ja
cob Kohler. ‘Ve have it on philosophi

both gentlemen agreed to pursue her pres

to delay the settlement of their respective

Leaving a Fortune to Lovers.
A lady of considerable beauty, and still
young, died recently in France, leavim , a
fortune. The Constitutional thus narrates
the troubles as to the heir :
"As she had lived alone, the Juge, do Paix

ture and her efThcts'on behalf of the heirs.
Amongst other things, was a rather large
collection of richly bound hooks. On open
one. of the volumes, the Jug(' de Paix
found a will : in a second there was a •sec
ond will, and in nearly all others th;.re were
others. Each of these wills was of a difiln•-
ent date, and each constituted a diGrent
person universal legatee. These leg,atees
were all young men—officers of the army,
advocates,. shopmen, artists, actors, si Intents.
architects, plivsicians—iu short, of every
profession, and of almost every class of so
ciety. Inquiries having been instituted, it
was a,certained that the lady had married
eight er ten yeas before. but, being .
of a ro

ed him, had indulged Openly in intrigues
with every young man who struck her fan
cy. F-1 , .4 relations with each were, howev
er, of short duration, owing to the fickleness
of her disposition ; but having, it appears, a
sort of monomania for making wills, she reg
ularly drew up one in favor of every new
lover. Each trill thus set 'aside that which
preceded it ; but the last of all was valid.—

But .t few days ago-the husband presented
himself, and destroyed all -the artist's hopes
by producing his marriage contract, which
established him inheritor of all his wife
might leave at her death."

NEW VOLUME
The December number commenced the
fourth volume of IlarPer's New Monthly
Magazine.
The Magazine has reached its present
enormous circulation simply because it
gives a greater amount of reading matter, of
a higher qualify, in a better style and a
cheaper price, than any other periodical ev
er publishers have spared, and will hereaf
ter spare, no labor or expense which will
increase the value and interest of the Mag
azine in all these respects. The 'Outlay
upon the present volume has been from
five to ten thousand dollars noire than that
upon either of its predecessors. The best
talent of the country has been engaged
in writing and illustrating orignal articles
for its pages; its selections have been made
from a wider field and with increased care ;
its typographical appearance has been ren•
tiered still moreelegant, and several new de
partments ha en been added to its orignal
plan.
The oljects of the publishers is to com
bine the greatest possible utility. Special
care will always he execised iii admitting
nothing into the Magazine in the slightest
degree efflutsive to the most sensitive deli
cacy; and there will be a steady aim to ex
ert a healthy, moral and intellectual influ
ence by the iliost attractive means.
