Orangovillo Now Academy.
On a recent visit to Orangovillo ,Mr.
Lazarus, ono of tha Trustees of tho Malo
and Female' Academy, just erected there,
showed us through tho edifice, aud we wcro
gratiScd to observe, that the Building Com
mittee havo exercised crcditablo judgment
and consulted good taste, in the erection of
a uoble Academy Ins itutc. It is now
finished, and tho furniture obtained, and
will bo occupied for educational purposes,
in February, as will bo seen by tho card
of Prof. J. A. Shank, in our advertising;
columns, to which wo deem it proper to
call general attention. Wo wish all our
citizens would properly appreciate tho en
tcrpiize in whioh our friends at Orangovillo
aro engaged, by first, taking liberally of
the Stock only 810 per share and sco
ondly, by extending tho next important
encouragement to tho institution, in sending
their children to tho Academy in which
they cannot fail to obtain a liberal educa
tion.
Time tho Eootifyor.
No man mado moro fuss during tho cam.
paign over tho disunionists, than John W.
Forney. No man moro wickedly and
malieiously abused John C. Breckinridge
than ho ; no man defended to 6uch ex
tremetics Douglas and Johnson, and their
supporters, than the white livcred renegado
Fornoy.
IIow is it now f Forney refuses to pub
lish tho speech of Judgo Douglas, which
has met with tho very general approval of
tho Deinocratio party, abandoning as it
did his Squatter Sovereignty dogma, and
professing a willingness to Bavo the Union
at all hazards and prevent bloodshed.
But still furthor. Johnston, tho Vico
President on tho Douglas ticket, and Al
exander II. Stephens, his mott eloquent
defender in tho South, have both signed
the secession ordinanco of tho Stato of
Georgia.
Among all tho men whoso namo, repu
tation and position entered into tho lato
contest, John C. Brcckinridgo stands, in
point of ability, purity of character, hon
esty of intention,and integrity to tho Union,
a head and shoulders above them all. lie
alone, tho abused nnd vilified, he alono,
tho mark of malignity and hate, ho nlono
has never wavered in his devotion to our
country. His name alono, now holds the
Border Slavo States in tho Union, around
him the leaders of the Union interest gather
as their Chief, nnd his patriotio counsels
havo done moro to delay and possibly heal,
than all others together. Once moro I
Hurrah for John C. Breckinridge.
Tnoa. Osterhout, Esq., our Member

Petition in. the Pennsylvania Legislature,
numerously signed by his most rcspcctabla
constituents, prating tho passage of an
Act, prohibiting the interm arriago of whites
with blacks, and making it a criminal of

in his recent mcssago to the Legislature,
thus forcibly condensed tho true policy

"Tho pcoplo of Pennsylvania are do
voted to tho Union. They will follow its
rtars and stripes through every peril.
But, beforo assuming tho high responsi
bilities now dimly foreshadowed, it is their
kolemn duty to rcmovo every just causo
of complaint against themselves, so thai,
they may stand beforo High Ileaven, nnd
tho civilized world, without fear and with-
out reproach, ready to dovoto their live.
and their fortunes to tho support of the
best form of Government that has ever
been devissd by tho wisdom of man."

and say to contending factious, "Peace 1

On tho 11th day of September 1851,
under the administration of William F.
Joiinston, in tho county of Lancaster, in
this Stato ) Henry II. Klino tho Deputy
United States MarshalJaecompanied by
Edward Goreuch tho owner of four fugi
tive slaves from Maryland, and his two
sons with a couplo of friends, proceeded to

said fugitives. Two( at least, of them,
were in tho houso of ono Parker, and wero
scon and recognized by Mr. Gorsueh, who
called them to como down. They refused.
A largo number of negroes were with them,
up stairs in Parker's houso. Tho warrants
wero read, and Klino attempted to go up
stairs a sharp instrument was thrust at
him, and an axo thrown down by somo
one, wounding two of tho Marshal's party.
Mr. Gorsueh went out before tho door
and callad his slaves by namo; he wa3
answered by having a shot fired at him
from tho window. Horns wcro blown by
tho nogroes, and directly Hanway and
iiowis two whito men roue up negroes
followed, emboldened by tho presenco of
the whito men who took tho lead aud en
couraged them.
By this time anothor gang of negroes
had arrived, armed with guns and clubs,
and Hanway rodo up to them and said
something in a low tono of voico. He
moved his horso out of tho way of the guns;
the negroes shouted, and immediately fired
from every direction. Hanway rodo a
short distanco down tho lane leading from
Parker s house, and sat on his horse watch
ing the blacks. Kline then called to Lewis,
telling him a man was shot, and begging
him to como and assist, which Lewis re
fused to do. While this conversation
was going on, and just beforo tho fir
iBg commenced, Edward Gorsueh was
standing in the short lane, about half way
between the bars and tho house. Joshua
M. Gorsueh was standing near him ; Dick'
inson Gorsueh was in tho short lane, not
so near his father as was Joshua, and Dr.
Pierce ; Mr. Hutchings and Mr. Nelson
were somewhere near tho same spot. The
number of negroes assembled at this time
must havo exceeded one hundred. Before
tho firing commenced, Edward Gorsueh
was struck with a club on tho back part of
tho head, and fell forward on his hands
and knees. As he was struggling to rise,
and in the act of getting upon his feet, he
was shot down, and when prostrate on the
ground, was cut oa the head with a eorn
cutter, and beaten with clubs. Dickinson
Gorsueh, on perceiving tho attack made
upon his father, immediately rushed to his
assistance, when his revolver was kuocked
out of his hand, and he himself shot in
various parts of tho body, producing in
tenso agony, and rendering him utterly
helpless. Joshua M. Gorsueh was attacked
at the same time, and defended himself
with his revolver, which ho twico snapped
at'his assailants, but the powder being
down and eruelly beaten and maltreated.
When the firing commenced, Klino, Deputy
Marshal, in order to avoid its effects,
escaped into a corn field, but on 6ecing
Dickinson Gorsueh struggling in the short
lane appprcntly wounded and bleeding, at
tho risk of his own life ho went to his as
sistance, and placed him under the shelter
of a tree until aid could be procured.
Hutchings and Nelson, two of tho others,
wcro at thb timo making their escape, tho
negroes being in full pursuit. Dr. Pearce
and Joshua Gorsueh rtreated by tho short
lano, and a number of shots wore fired at
them ai tbey moved off. Dr. Pearco was
shot in tho wrist, lido and shoulder, and a
ball also passed through his hat just abovo
his forehead. In tho effort to escape , theso
latter gentlemen rushed towards Hanway,
who was still sitting on his horso in tho
long lano. They besought him to prevent
tho negroes from pursuing any further.
He said ho could not. They then asked
for permission to get upon his horso, which
would afford the means of making their
escapo. Ho refused their request, and put
ting whip to his horso rode off at full
speed. This modo of a safo .retreat bein
denied to Dr. Pearco and Joshua Gorsueh.)
their only hope was to continue to run. .
Pearco was in front, and Joshua Gorsueh
behind. In looking back, Dr. Pearco saw
a negro who had previously fired at him, I
siriho dosuua uorsucn with a gun, which
felled him to tho earth, and only escaped
himself by rushing into a neighboring
iarm-uouso, wnere ho was concealed from CTCr nt "ichmond. Tho Senato also pas
view. Joshua M. Gorsueh and Dickinson sei1 tuo bill fixing tho 13th of February for
uurautu wero BUDsenuently carried to
houses in tho vicinity, ond wcro a long '
timo recovering from their wouuds. .
tuch is tho history of ono caso; one
man killed, and thrco moro wounded
almost to their death. The blood of our
Southern Brethren shed upon our own soil '
a groat wrong, a foul crime committed. '
and yet Republican Senators stand up and
assert that Pennsylvania is without sin.

stipulations by, any Stato or section, a
gainst the rights of any other Stato or
section, whereby its operation should be
come, or bo deemed, more intolerable than
tho perils of secession, which is another
namo for rovolution. Tho true method,
wo tako it, is, to look at tho caso as now
presented, not in tho light ofthoConsti
tution, (which, as it contemplated no such
complication, provides no key for its so
lution,) but as a naked fact, with which
tho remaining States,through tho national
government, havo to do. Call it secession,
or revolution if you plcaso. but do nnt
belittle it by calling it a simple breach of
tho laws.
It is a great movoment.as they will find
who undertake to suppress it by forco of
arms. Already tho States of South Car

will bo more than 000,000 equaro miles,

ing a drawback upon tho strength of
whites, as many persons at tho North
seem to suppose, will bo in somo respects
more valuahlo than so many whito men,
as they can bo employed to do all tho
! drudgery of tho campaigu, tho building
of earth-works, bearing of burdens, and in
short, almost every thing but tho actual
fighting, for which latter service said
States could easily set on foot a quarter
of a million of able-bodied men, inured to
tho eliinato which would provo fatal to
.Northern Wide Awakes who Bhould at-
tempt to remain thcro through tho hot
season. But enough of this. Wo will
only add, that a resort to coercion, which
appears to bo tho determination of tho
Republicans when they come into power a
few weeks hence, will bring nearly or
quite all tho other slavcholding States to
tho support of those whioh aro attacked,
and thus tho nation will bo divided into
two parts, as nearly equal in respect to
population, territory and resources, as
will bo ncocssary to ensuro a protraelcd
and terribly bloody fratricidal war.
Wc have already intimated our belief
that much of the zeal which is manifested
among certain classes all over the North,
including many notorious law-breakers,
for tho faithful execution of tho laws iu
South Carolina and other seceding States,
is only an out-cropping of that intenso
hatred against tho South which thirty
I years cultivation has produced. At first,
such malignity is measurably satisfied by
hard words and foul imputations. But
as it becomes moro fiendish nnd diaboli
cal, it craves bighcr-ssasoucd food. It
longs to get at its victim with a butcher
knife. .It thirsts for blood. JohnBrown-

hazardous business, and too circumscribed.
