tCj"Every mail btir.gs us renewed ovi
deuce of Ihc entlnt.iaism that prevails in the
Democratic parly throughout tho country
jn favor of 'he Democratic candidates Folk
and Dallas, and assurance from all quarters
of tho certainty of their election. So. con
fidoni of siicess aro tho Democrats at Wash
jngtnn cjiy, that I,cts 10 nnY amount, aro
offered, that CUy, will not get a single
jlcctornl vote, south or west, except Ken
iiiu v hi. own state. And it is said that if
lie gets these, he will have to scratch for
ilictn.
THAT NAME.
Wliv do tho whig nan-rs and orators
dMiko to call llio Democratic party by its
right and proper name? 'Vhy do they be
stow on it 60)ilo oilier appellation! For ihe
simplo reason that they aro as usual unfair
iind unmanly. Knowing that tho Demo
crats hold at this hour tho principles of
Thomas Jefferson and of 08. they resort to
tlIS poor, pilllUI moans to inaitu me pcopir
believe that tho Dqmocratic party have
swerved from their ancient faith and gone
to'worship strange Gods. All wo can say,
U, that we pity tho poor things who thus-
expect (o creata bucJi a belief. Can any
'pne'ltiTa moment suppose that a reasons
hlo mun will be thus influenced by names?
Surelv the principles of boih parlies will
bo looked into, and although you narno one
Aulimaeon, Whig, Adams party or whatev
cr else you please, nevertheless the cloven
foot of Federalism will appear revealed
Again, call tho other party, Republican
party, Loco Focos, or what you will, still
they are that same old Democratic party.
W hat folly it is then, thus to attempt to
blind the public, for to uso a phrase of Al
exander Hamilton, it's " pork still, only
with a different sauce." Rut notwith
Handing all wo havo said, wo daily seo
some whiirs almost ehoak over that word
Democrat.

NEW COUNTERFEIT.
A now counterfeit nolo of S10, purporting
to bo of the Mechanics' Hank of I'luladcl
phia, was detected -In Baltimore, last week
ll ha? boon offered to one of tho city bank
for deposit, nnd was doloclod by tho teller
I'lio editor of tho Baltimore American says
it is the best executed counterfeit ho has
over seen; tho vignette in tho centre of the
nolo rcptescnling tho signing of tho Deo
laration of Independence and tho orna
merits from each end appear to havo been
obtained from tho genuine, dies. The only
lcfect is in tho signatures of the PicHidcut
and Cashier every thing else U in the
host stylo of engraving. Keep ;i luok out

HENRY A. MUHLENBERG'
Thus fjr our political opponents have not
been able to adduce one single fact or cir
etimstanco discreditable to tho character or
standing uf our candidate for Governor,
Wo have within the last few months con
versed with n number of his immediate
neighbors and acquaintance; most of then
political opponents, who have known him
for years, without a single e.xorpiion the)
have uniformly borno'testimony to hi higl
character and estimable qualities as a man.
I'hcso (acts speak volumes in ptaise of Mi
Muhlenberg. The editor of the U. S, 07.
cite, ll is true, has round latilt with linn
lie charges him with having written smer
al letters from Germany, upon 'uufortiiuaii
subjects,' and thinks his style is not i
classical and chaste as it might be. Now
is the editor of tho Gazette could onl)
Judge of the stylo through the medium of n
translation, vc should hardly think him
competent to decide. Resides, wo think
that an objection of this character come.-
with a very bad grace from ono of the sup
porters of Joseph Market, a man notorious
ly illiterate. When our opponents arc
Irivpn to such shifts as those, ii too plainl)
shows the difficulties of their cause. Sun

E R Y SINGULAR PHENOMENON
A friend, who bus just leturncd from the
South, te?!s us that about forty miles this
-tide of Tuscaloosa, on Ihc road to Hunts
ville, the driver pointed to a large hole in
lield, which he said was the greatest curios
it y in the world. The passengers wont to
ho spot, and lound a round hole about scv
nty feet 111 diameter, with the earth on a
-lidos apparently solid, and overgrown will
grass. I here was waicr al tho bottom
apparently 100 feel Irom the surface. It is
at the lop of a ridge of earth, upon which,
al ihc distance of twenty rods, stood the
descried dwelling of the owner of the plan
tation. The driver staled that about three
years ago, ir. tho dusk of the evening', ihe
planter was starilcd by a rumbling noise,
and stepping from his door, was astonished
to find that a magnificent nine nee, .more
than a hundred foot in height, and a noble
oak which stood by its sulu in an open
lield, had both disappeared I On going to
the spot, tins Hole appeared, hut nothing
was 10 tie seen 01 me irecs, nor lias the top
ol these over oecn reached though a
lO'.inding line had been sent down three
Hundred feet. The planter deemed it un
safe to remain so near a neighbor to such a
catastrophe, lest that should befal himscll
mil his family which be I'd the piuo and the
oak; ahd so he removed to another Ihhiso n
111 i 1 0 distant; yet, nuilung of tho kind has
happened since, and the wonder still re.
mains unaccounted for. Saturday Court

A FEARFUL
LEAP AND
ESCAPE.
NARROW
Otto of the most extraordinary instances
uf pieservation, under circumstances ul
imminent peril, occurred a few days since,
111 the vicinity 01 ISoriuamplon. in this
Sutc, which is thus related by the Demo
crat: ' Un fritlay, the .list tilt., at the
Jilk factory of the Northampton Association
1 building four stories in height, George
Washington Sullivan, a young man connec
ted with that association, went out on 10
the roof lot the pttrpuso of picking up n
mineral which he nnd accidentally droppeo
there while standing in tho belfrv, To
set ore himsell from failing he look off hu
shoes. Notwithstanding this prechutio:i.
.liter descending the roof a few steps, find
nig himself s'ippinp, he took oil' 0110 of his
stockings, but win, si utimupling lo take oil
the oilier, his motion became so much ac
celciated that further ellbt is to savo JinnseH
Irom the leorlul fall wero useless, lie then,
with romai katdo presence of mind, rolled
Himsell uvcr 11,1011 Ihe roof whilst ho wa
sliding, 111 order to prevent falling upon tin
platform, and iv hen he reached the eaves,
having lirst drawn 111 and held his breath,
clenched his teeth and haluls, and contract
ed his muscles, he leaped lo the ground, a
distance nf '10 or JO leel, and came upon
his feet I The concussion was so great a
temporarily deprive him of tho power ol
standing; He was earned into tho Ihiiim-
and pl.iccil in bed, and was soon after vx
linuicd by a surgeon who decided that no
hums hi ie broheu and no joints dislocated
dihough theiu was reisou to apprehend
iei lutis injury to the muscles about ih
spine, where there appealed to bo greai
soreness. The oiiiil' man's friends then
wrapped him in sheets wet 111 eold water.

cure' system, whi.ih soon produced persiii

Islered. In tho al'icniuon uf ihe

onnti'tcd with this occurrence is, that
vmplous of a serious dlsouse With rltieb

a cfcnt measure, disappeared. It seems
.is if the change of action which was prod n
ceil in so unusual a manner has been sola-
tan, and that instead of so frightful an ac
chljmt being ratal in its ellects, as might tie
expected, it has been the mcaitsof rcstonng

THE POWER OF MEMORY.
Scncci sn j s ho could in his youth repeat
a thousand names in the same order as tho)
were read-to him. Thctpistoclcs mailt
himself master of the Persian language in f
year's liino.i Mithlidatcs understood as
many languages as he commanded nations
that is, no less than twenty two. Cyril
relaiucj) iho name of every soldier in hi
irmy. 1 1 ully says ol Julius Utcsur, 111 his
oration for Ligarus, that ho never forgot
inv thliii! but injury. A cirl a', u Sabbath
eycninir school in the north, repealed the
1 10th Psalm, in .prose, without a mistake
,V blind man, who lived in Stuilins, could
repeal the whole Bible, which ho had no
quirc(l by hearing children read at school
lie used to say, that if ho hoard any thing
read twice, he never forgot it afterwards.
Mr. Wesley remarks, Thpmas Walsh was
fo 'lhoroughly acquainted with tho Bible, il
tie was questioned concerning any Hebrew
tvord in the Old, or any Greek word in the
New Testament, ho would tell after a littl
pause, not only how often one or the olhei
occurred 111 the Bible, but also whatil mcani
