    Frarm.s . Jocsgrs.- - -At a recent borse-rae in
Doylestown, twelve females, each rnotfnted on
a " sporting horse,'! entered the list for Ike
prize. Among the list were three circus wo
men from Philadelphia. They started and
made the race in the presence of thirty thou
sand people. The first premium was awarded
to Miss Anna Roberts of Doylestown, the sec
ond to Mrs. Aaron of Norristown, and the third
to Mrs. Jenkins of Montgomery Square. Com
menting on the proceedings the Buffalo Express
remarks
What a comment upon the taste—the mpdesty
—the morality of the times.. ' hero are twelve
females—the wonder and admiration of the gap
ing multitude of a race course, when they
should have been adorning twelve households
with the dignity of modest refinement. It
would have been far better for them had they
been engaged that afternoon over twelve wash
tubs, rather than riding twelve horses in a heat
over the race course surrounded by vile men
and impudent women. This is a kind of pro
gress which bodes no good to a refined and
moral toned society. When our mothers,
daughters and sisters turn horse racers and
gamblers, their influence upon the generations
that follow will be such as to fill the earth with
all manner of iniquity.
FETTIL AT NORFOLK. — The Baltimord Stf
the 26th, says :—By way of Richmond and Pe
tersburg we have news from Norfolk and Ports
mouth up to 6 o'clock on Monday morning.—
The trains on the Seaboard and Roanoke rail
road, it is stated, have adopted the course of
the Bay Line of steamers, and only make three
trips a week. The latest intelligence is not
at all encouraging. The report of the death of
Dr. Walter, of Baltimore, is, we regret to say,
confirmed. On Saturday, in Norfolk the deaths
were 40 ; in Portsmouth .. l7. On Sunday, in
INfolk, 31 ; in Portsmouth, 17. (Another
account says only 3.) The Richmond Dispatch
says :
The mortality among the doctors on Satur
day was surprising. Five physicians died on
that day in Norfolk and Portsmouth, viz : Dr.
Capry, of N. Y. ; Millard, of Montgomery,
and Dr. Burns, of Norfolk ; and Dr. Rizer, of
Philadelphia: and Dr. Walter, of Baltimore, in
Portsmouth. Dr. Rizer had left Portsmouth
and returned home once, but went back again
and fell a victim to the plague. This is the
largest mortality in one day among the physi
cians, except on the sth September, When seven
died.
PROOF THAT TIM MOON IS NOT
Dr. Scoresby, in' an account that he has given
of some recent observationsanade with the Earl
of Rosse's telescope, says : " With respect to
the moon, every object on its surface of lOt s .) feet
was now distinctly to be seen : and he had no
doubt that, under very favorable circumstan
ces, it would be so with objects' GO feet in
height. On its surface were craters of extinct
Volcanoes, rocks, and masses of stones almost
innumerable. Ile had no doubt that if such a
building as lie was then in were upon the sur
face of the moon, it would be rendered distinct
ly visible by these instruments. Dot there arc
no signs of habitations such as ours—ito vestige
of architecture remains to show that the moon is
or ever was inhabited by a race of mortals
similar to ourselves. It presented no appear
ance. which could lead to the supposition that
it contained any thing like the green fields and
lovely verdure of the beautiful world of ours.--
There was no water 'visible- -not a sea or a
river, or even the measure of a reservoir for mil).
plying town or factory--all seemed desolate."
How TO DRY rt:.MPKIN AND MANE ml PIE.—
Perhaps some don't know the best way to dry
pumpkins. It is this :—Cut them up and stew
them till they are soft and dry ; pound and
strain through a colander ; then greaso pie
pans, and spread it on a quarter of an inch
thick and dry it : roll it up, and put it away in
a tight box, or bag, from, the insects. Each
one of these rolls will make a pie. It is very
easy now to make a pie. Put in sweet milk,
and let it soak about ttico hours ; put in an egg
a table-spoonful of ginger,,rind one of allspice
and if you arc lovers of pumpkin pie, as we
are, you will pronounce it good.-- Ohio Farnur.
OrEKING Tllll MAI NTRIMEIIS MUST
TURNED Orr.—The Post Office Department
has issued an order in relation to the opening
and closing of mails. It sets forth that the
mails cannot, in compliance with law, be open
ed or made up by the postmaster or his sworn
assistants within the reach of persons not au
thorized to handle them. The postmaster
must therefore, while discharging these duties,
exclude from the room appropriated to the use
of his office all persons except his assistants
regularly employed and sworn. This law is
often violated by postmosters, and the agents
of the department are required to promptly
report to the department all cases that come to
their notice.
THE EBLANCIPATION IN KENTUCKT.—TheNcw
port (Ky.) News, at the suggestion of a num
ber of prominent slavebolders in Kentucky,
proposes that a Convention be held in Frank
fort, to adopt a plan for the gradual abolition
of slavery in that State. Public sentiment in
Kentucky and also in Maryland and Virginia,
has beeri undergoing a change for some years in
respect to maintaining the slave institution.—
The factis that the proposition for.freedom comes
from slaveholders themselves, is ono of great
significance, and shows that the political bear
ings of the question are as well understood
among intelligent men in the South as they are
in the• North.
PnosTrrunoN n NE - r' YORK.-A gentleman
in New York named Goun, who has been
for some time investigating the causes and pro
gress of crime in that city, from motives of
practical philanthropy, has ascertained that
there are now living iu that, city no less than
twenty-four thousand unfortunate or abandon
ed women, and no fewer than foUrteen hundred
houses of ill `me.; This is trlly a frightful
proportion .of the entire population of Now
York.

this is not a fact, and a well established one too,
that we sell

as cheap and a little cheaper than they can
be bought anywhere else. We have lately re-•
ccived the Fall and Winter styles and have
now on hand a large stock of Moleskin, Silk,
Beaver, Neutria, Russia, and in fact,
every kind and .quality of Hats that
can be thought of. being satisfied that
e ei. we are able to suit the taste and in
clination of all who may favor us
with a call, as we have the article from five
dollars down to. fifty cents, and such that will
become old and young. Our stock of Caps is
the largest in Allentown, and at extreme low
prices. To convince the public of what we say,
it may be well to state that we have forty-one
different styles. Surely enough to give a per
son a chance of suiting his taste. Call and
see us.
Being both practical hatters and much expe
rienced in the businesS, they feel satisfied that
they can give entire satisfaction to all who
will favor them with their custom. Remember

S ITERF.BY GIVEN to the citizens of Allen
town and the surrounding country that the
undersigned have made great additions to their
stock of Boots, Shoes, Hats, Caps, Trunks,
Valises, Travelling Bags. Lamps, &c., &c., and
are determined to sell at low prices. Although
leather and other articles in their line have very
largely advanced, we employ a very large num
ber of the very hest mechanics, who work un
der the superintendanee and direction of the
most experienced foremen in the country, con
sequently our Boots and Shoes arc all got up in
such a manner as to enable us to warrant them
to our customers. We feel confident that for
neatness and durability our work is not exceed
ed in any country town in the. State. To en
umerate all the various kinds and styles of our
goods would take up too much space—suffice it
to say that we have by far the g largest stock
in town, and thatSe are always title and wil
ling to supply- the wants of our numerous pat
rons with any article in our line they may call
for, at very small prblits.
To our wholesale customers we would say
that we are now selling our own manufactured
and Eastern Boots and Shoes. Gum, Buffalo and
Calf Overshoes. Hats and Caps at the lowest
city jobbing prices. We are ablo'to furnish at
short notice any odd sizes that may be wanted,
both.of our own and Eastern work.
All we ask is that we may receive a call from
those wishing to purchase :'we charge nothiag
for showing our goods. We are very thankful
for the liberal share of patronage with which
we have been favored thus far and hope by
close attention to business, and selling good
goods at low rates to share the 'same in future.

Without a dress coat, pantaloons, and vest.
