THE COLUMBIA DEMOCRAT. "TnUTII WITHOUT FIAIl 8JlTVltli.1V, JUJVE 1838. DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION" FOR GOVERNOR, t GEN. DAVID K. PORTER, (OF HUNTINGDON COUNTY.) The idle litols in I'Mlailclphia. The commotion in this once peaceful city, caus 'cd by the late disgraceful t iots, appears to havo almost entirely subsided; not, however, without having produced oh tho public mind, a deep and lasting impression of the folly and madness of a few individ uals attempting to bravo tho curront of public opinion by enforcing their own peculiar doctrines and polr cy, in opposition to the prejudices and often repeat t.1 sentiments of tho great mass of society. That every man has n free and undoubted right, un 'der our government and laws, to discuss any mcas. tore of policy, or express any opinion ho may cn tcrtain, at all times and in all places, if, by bo doing, 'lie docs not interfere with sound morals) and th'j pcaco and happiness of his neighbor, no otto will deny. But, whenever he touches llicso rights, he oversteps tho bounds of reason and justice, and true freedom of speech and action, and falls into licen tiousness. It is not maintaining an " inalienable right" of his own, but infringing Upon tho rights of others. This is not UUrlV: On the other hand, in no. case have wo a righl to 'take tho law into our own hands. It should always be left to tho administration df the proper author!. lies. To their decision wo should submit. But by saying this, we do not Admit the right to arouso tho passions and prejudices of tho people by cither publicly discussing sentiments which they abhor, or enforcing customs upon them, by precept 'or ex 'ample, which tliey consider as detrimental to tho well being of their domestic firesides. Thus it was with tho Abolitionists of the city. They knew thev wcro Braving public opinion. They knew that 'tho doctrines of Abolitionism and Amalgama. tionism, as tatlght by them, was Universally de tested bv tho community in which they were; and thev must have been aware that tlieV were enkind ling a flamo that neither law nor justice could con trol, if they persisted in promulgating their doctrines. But notwithstanding they did persist, and the con sequences that followed, arc, in fact, of their own seeking. We do not justify tlio, people in the 'city in tho course they pursued td put down these fanatics ; they ought arid should bo punished ; but .at the same time, we dd think that tlio principal leaders of the Abolition cane, who wcro tho first" Qccressors: should receive their reward from an "equal hand of justice: Federalists of '98 and Whigs of '33 the same. Tho Whig Legislature of Connecticut lias chcted General Kimberly; df New Haven U. S. Senator, in the place of the Hon. JohnM.Nilcs, whoso term "of service expires on tho 4th of March next. Gen, Kimberly is endorsed by tho whigs throughout the country as beinc sound and unchanging in his whig principles." This is true. Gen. Kimberly was a Federalist of tho John Adam's school, and still glories in the principles of that party ; ho must of course be a "sound and unchanging" whig, one in whom that party can have the utmost confidence, He will be a good acquisition to the Federal corpse in tho Senate; for a man, who, for forty years has steadily maintained tho principles of that party. will not bo likely to abartdon them now; Tho dovemor has issued his proclamation offer ing a reward of $500, and the Miyor of the city of Philadelphia, $2000, each, for the apprehension and tonviction of tho participators iri the burning of the Pennsylvania Hall: Tho West Branch Bank, at Williamsport, has commenced operations. Many of the notes are al ready in circulation. John Cdweri, Esq. President, T. Coryell, Cashier. A barn in Kingston, Luzerne county, belonging loCapt. A. P. Winchcll, was destroyed by firo a few days since. Fire supposed to have originated from a lighted cigar being carried into the born Loss estimated at $200 besides tho building.' We once knew a loafer who was guilty of all manner of tricks to obtain a living without work kecuso an honest neighbor of being thecauso of his degradation. Why sol says the neighbor. You have exposed my character. Thus it is with the Federal party.- Th'o Democratic party, by exposing the selfishness of their political career, havo thrown them out of power, and the course they havo pur sued to regain it, has rendered them still more ob noxious. And liko the loafer, they would like to cast tlio odium of their guilt upon tho shoulders of those who have heretofore exposed their conduct, and now prevent them from usurping tho rights of the peopl6, An Irishman by tlio name of John O'Neal, of Kingston, was committed to jail in Wilkcsbarrr, .Luicmo county, a few days since, for attempting to kill his wife in a drunken' frolic. ITEMS Mclancholi.A. liltto daughter nf Mr. Barnes, of Norfolk, was bitten by a favor ite spaniel about five weeks since, ami tlio wound healing over no further notice was taken of it; but at tlio beginning of last week its most horrid form, which terminated in its death in a few hours. The New York Gazette says "Frank Johnson, the celebrated colored- musician, arrived with his band from London in tlio Philadelphia. Tho visiters of Saratoga, to whom Frank is favorably known, Will be glad to hear that ho takes his old station at Hi'o springs this summer, prepared lo greet tnem with iionuon s latest, and in improved style." Imposing Spectacle. The Lowell Ad vertiser states that a concourse of peorile, probably four thousand in number, assem bled upon the banks of the Concord rivdr on Sunday aftcrnodii; td witness the admin istration of baptisih by the Methodists to about sixty persons. Murder. A mulatto; named Miller, was murdered on Saturday, at Duncan's Island, in the Sus'quekannaii, it is believed, by tho keeper of a public house there, named Sil- hammer, who had accused him bf robbing his bar of gome change. Silhammer was seen near him, and Miller was observed to fall, having been stabbed in the breast.

"Every thing is in commotion here. The Cherokee order arrived last nieht. Col. Smith has somo 107 Indians. Col. Taylor 49 or 50, and captain Monroe has Alligator and most of his people at Pease Creek. The Indians appear to be inclined to emigrate; it is manifested by their coming in. There arc about 200 Indians here, and it is thought about 4uu more will shortly be in. Tins Will diminish their force consequently iri the field, so you perceive there is a prospect of tho term nation of the war." P. S. A younjr Naval officer has iust ar rived here (Washingtori,)rro'm Tampa Bay, which no leu on mc 'tin nisi, just previous to leavincr, an exnrdss arrived from Gen. Taylor at Fort Gardner, stating that 400 Scminolcs, men, women, and children had come in and surrendered to him. Tliey be longed to the bands of Alligator and Coa- choochc. My mlormant thinks there are not more than 250 warriors out; but thoy aie of thb most determined character. Some three or four express riders havo been recently killed, ono at Fort Arm strong one at Fort King, and one near Fort Gardner. A few days since, some lb or 14 Indians attacked about the samo number of soldiers belonging to tho garrison at Micanomy, whilo bathing in a ppnd and killed three, and severely wounded one. A horribta affair occurred in New York a. few days since. A woman named Sarah Kerrin, perished under the following cir cumstances: "It appdared that Kerriri arid his httoily, consisting of a wife and two children, a few days since moved into town from Har leam, and located in appartntents in a house on 3d avenue', si couple bf doors abdvb 7th street. The testamony of several who know tHem is somewhat al variance, some attributing to the husband, and some to the wife, habitual drunkenness; but they agree in one thing, to wit, that the husband was grossly drunk on Saturday eveningj add thb Wife wa3 not sober. Between 9 ind 10 o'clock on that evening a woman.resdingin the house passed through the entry, Where she found Kerrin seated with his two chil dren; and when she passed the ddor of their room, which was ajar, she perceived that the room was unusually light; arid filled with smoke. She asked Kerrin what was the cause? to which hp answered, 'ph nbthing, only my wife is burning!" The wornan entered the room ana tound the wretched wife lying on the floor, her clothes nearly burned olfofher, and her body-in a dreadful condition from tho effects of the firo. She instantly alarmed the neighborhood, arid the miserable moman was soon relieved of her smouldering garments; ahd the fire, which had communicated to the ddor and a trunk, was put out. DUrihg all this time Her un natural husband did not movp a finger to assist, but appeared w.holly indifferent to what was transpiring; "The deceased, though mosi horribly burm cd about the chest, breast, shoulders and arms, was not wholly insensible after being relieved from the horrible situation in which she was found, and she at that time stated that her husband had set her clothing on firo by throughing a lighted candle in her lap" .. Life on Wheels'.- The Messrs Lyons, Coach Makers of tliis city, are building a small moveable village for the Utica and Syracuse Railroad. This company havo now oh their road Iwo steam engines which drive the piles upon which the road is built aud saw them bfl' at tho proper level, the rails arc then laid, and the road completed as they go along. The 'village,' consisting of d number of neat looking cottages; is to be placed on tho road in the redr of the pile-drivers, for dwelling houses for tlio mechanics and la borers on the road. Improvements will never stop; arid we shall yet see the time whert one. may take a tea-kettle in his hand, put a few chips in his pocket, get astride of a broomstick and go where he pleases: Utica Democrdt. Severe Sentence. Tho Wilmington (Del) Gazelle says "The trial of John Kennedy, who was arrested a few weeks ago in this citv on a charge of robbing Mr. Thomas Vandever, while on his way to market, Wasjjlosed on Wednesday last when tho jury retumed a verdict df guilty. He was yesterday Sentenced to pay the state a fine of five hundred dollars, to stand on tho pillory for the space of one hour, shall be publicly whipped with thirty-nine lashes on tho bare back well laid on, imprisoned for a term of two years, and upon expiration of such imprisonment, to be disposed of as a servant to the' highest and best bidder or bidders for the term of ten years."

Mr. James Black, beinir interrogated upon his oath, before Allegany county court how long a man could live in Old-town, in that county, without fighting? answered "Tho. Angel Gabriel himself could not help fighting if ho wero to live more." A Decided Move. It is stated in the Cin cinnati Gazette, that near two hudred voters Harden county, Ky., have published a pledge tliat they will vote 'for no candidate wlio treats at elections, or suffers others to do it for him, directly or indirectly. A lit tle more of such nerve would mako election treats unfashionable'. Good. HYMENIAIiJ MARRIED On Tuesday evening the 29th Ult. by tho Rev. J. D.
