.on oonmetid nith tho internal welfare of
the Suites, induce caeli oue to give its
emisrnt to iilu' Ur oi the new Union as
embraced in our prrfcni Uonstilution.
Now, wha" uru the term of tho Union?
Why, it i-i too clear fo'r doubt that, upon
the points low in di.-puto, they were as
follows ; The n';ro race was nor admit-
rd to tliu stai ofeiti.i'iiship, anil its con
dition in each Smd wii left to bo detcr
ii ined a the people of each Stale should
ru fit. TJie Fedeial Uovcrniiiunt had no
right to interfere with it in any way what
ovci, except to fee that fugitive negroes
were returned to their mutci. This was
the Union the Coimtiiution, the (iiwrii-
( meiil for.ncd by our forefathers The l'd
' oral Government had uo ucciioion to use
J its 'iLflucuce or power either for or against
, the relation that ljj.o States prescribed for
the negro. It was its duty to treat it just
as it did every other act ol t tic btatos which
thoy had tho right to do, and to rcspoct it ;
as ?uch.
liut it ii notorious tht t tho Abolition
party were never in favor of preserving
that Uuion. They hated it with a perfect
hatred. They declared they would over
throw it, if they could, that it was "a cov
enant with death ami a league with hell."
There was no objurgation too sevcro with
which to condemn it, no cuifcs deep
enough to consign it to eternal perdition.
Dutuosoincr do they get power than
they chango tho Union by construction,
' aud declare thas it includes all men, and

Report of the Surveyor General
Surveyor General Uarr'a annual Heport,
ft mxomam in t10
iusiiiess and receipts of tho tiand Offift
over previous years The number of Pa
tents paid for during tho year is 2,178,
being about the number paid for during
the preceding tcu years. Tho receipt:
were, in round numbers, 802, 000, or about
the same as tue receipts liom tuo same
Bourco for the whulc scv.cn years, begin
uing Dec, 1 ,1850, and ending Nov. 30,
1803.
The Surveyor General expresses the
opinion that, by judicious legUlation, the
sum of two or three million dollars, which
is U't'unated to be still duo on unpatented
landr., might ho brought ii.to the Slate
Treasury in tho next tcu yoars, without
inflicting any injury or distress upon a
sinclc debtor. Tho plan by which he
proposes to effect this desirable purpose
is to tas unpatented lands slightly higher
than thoso that arc patented, aud thus
make it tho interest of all holders of uu
patented lands to extinguish tho claims of
the Commonwealth upon theta.
Thero is certainly uo good reason why
the largo amount still duo the State on
account of Lands should not be collected,
aud thero aro many and very obvious
reasons why it should be brought into tho
Treasury within a reasonable poriod from
this date. To collect it summarily would
bc a hard.-hip to many of the debtors ;
and to avoid this, the Surveyor General hu
mauoly suggests a plan by which it may
bo got in gradually.
From siatistics furnished in lho Rcpoit,
it apprarshat iu the year previous to Mr.
Barr'u oleetion as Survoyor' General, tho
whole receipts of tho Lend Offico did uot
defray much moro than half of its expenses
But the past year has yielded tho Trea
sury an income from lands of at loart
eighty thousand dollars over and above all
expenses. This is tho most gratifying
exhibit that any Surveyor General 1ms
beeu enabled to mako for many years.

ho has changed his residonco to tho neigh-
borhood of tho churoy-Jard,whioli ho hopes
may prove a conVonionoo to bis numerous
patients,
their
lias tnken a stand against tho Church.
In regard lo tho first charge, wo have
only to say that it is void of truthxecpt
ing so far as that the public contempt aud
abhorranco of their fanaticism and liypoc
rioy was pretty freely expressed, and their
evil effects wcro counterbalanced as far as
practicable.
Iu rcg.ird to tho second charge, we pro.
nouncc it wholly and witkedly false. Tho
Democratic paity is now and always has
been the strong protector of religion, of
whatever creed or iu whatever form pro
fessed or practiced. It is tho high and rev
erential regard in which tho Democratic
party ever liom anu now Holds tlie cause
ol pure and undefilcd religion that induc
ed its members to denounco the inGdol hy
pocrils who under the garb of preachers
undertook to convert tho pulpits of the
churches into political rostrums and from
them to flood tho country with doctrines
of hatred, malevolence, violcuce,b!ood,mur-
der, plunder, thieving, oppression, tyran
ny, fanaticism and infidelity. It was to
save ihe church from pollution that tho
Democratic party took the stand it did ;
and that result, under tho beneficence of
God, it will yet accomplish to tho extent
that nothing but His word, His law and
nothing but liis wora, llts law ami
His mandates will issue from what ought
to be a sacred shrine a shrino that pal
pably should be dovoted to sacred things,
and that is as palpably corrupted and do
based when any other arc introduced into
it.

of a minister of the Saviour of men, with a
serpent concealed under his cloak. To
denounce aud successfully oppose corrup
tion is necessary to denounce those who
practice it.
In tho two preceding paragraphs tho
political preacher and the public will find
the reasons why Democrats oppose politi-
cal gasconade from the pulpit and the men
who practice it. lf they choose to inquire
further they will also find that tho Dem-
ooratio party believe that the faithful ex-
pounding of tho Scriptures is a field amply
comprehansive to ooupy tho wholo of tho
mou expansive human intellect. Snoh
being the fact as to the great, it is impos
sible that the mere pigmies who by human
graoo tuceeed to the miuiutry should bo
profitablo in either when thoy undertake
'o instruct peoplo iu both sacred and polit-
'cal duties, Tho mind that can scatcely
comprehend cither must become lost when
it foolishly undertakes to grap both, and
are thereforo mere vehicles of blunder, er
ror and false teaching in both.
Let no mau bo deceived by the subtlo

not livo with her, and that sho went to
England against his wishes. About two

and proceeded lo Mccdham, Mass., her
former home, where sho lsarned that her
husband was writing soft letters aud mail

written her frequently, during her absence,

Daring Thieves.
The Easton Uxpress says, on Saturday
ovening tho 24th ult,, a bold and desper
ate attempt was niado by two scoundrels
to rob Mr. Joseph Unangst, an old and
rcspcctablo farmca residing in Bethlehem
township, about seven miles from Easton.
For some reason, suspicion it appears at
onco rested on two young men,who of lato
had resided in Bctlilchoin South, and ac
cordingly one of tho party, tv man named
Michael Hurley, was arrested on Monday
morning by oonstable Transuo and brought
before Esquiro Borhck, of Bethlehem for
an investigation of the caso. Iu the
meantime a messenger had boon sent for
Mr. Unangst, who foot: made hia appear
anco at the Esquire's office, and at tho
first glanca at tho prisoner recognized him
as ono of tho men concerned in tho rob
bery Tho following statement of Mr. Un
anget gives all particulars in tho caso,much
better than wo oan portray thorn :
''On Saturday evening, at about eight
o'clock, or perhaps n little later, whilo I
and tho rost of my family wero seated in
tho room around thostovo, tho door sud
denly opened and two men cams in. Each
had a revolver or two in their hands.
One presented his toward mo, and tho
other towards my son John, and at one
demanded my money. I told him 1 had
none, which ho would not bclicvo- He
then asked mo for the koy of my dest,
mhich I gavo him, when he unlooked it
and ransacked every drawer, throwing tho
papers out, aud finding only between threo
and four dollars in silver and a few pen
nies. Thoy then demanded my safo koy,
which I gave them, and they unlocked it
also, and cxaminod it very closely without
finding any money. I told them, after
asking mo for my gold, that I always de
posited my money in the Easton Bank. '
They then also asked for my bank book,
and after looking over it threw it on lho
floor. In tho meantime my son was try
ing lo loavo tho room, when one of tho
men shot at him, the ball entering the hip,
where it still icmains. Aftor discovering
that they could not find any, this man,tho
(the prisoner,) pointed a pistol at my head
and threatened to shoot mo if I did not
give them money. I knocked tho pistol
away, when it went off, and the bullet
struck tho wall in tho rear of me. This
happened up in my room. At this time
tho candle was knookod over, and vc
wero in tho dark, and beforo thoy had
time to light it again I opened the window
and jumped out of the second story into
the garden ( a venturesome jump for a maa
of sixty-three years of ago,) and went to a
neighbor and gavo the alarm. While I
was gone thoy threatened one ol tho fe
males, my daughter, and sho gave them
her pockc-book containing about $15 in
bills, aud before assistance arrived thoy
got into a sleigh and drovc off towards
Bsthlehcm. Four shots wcro fired inmy
house, and this is the very man (pointing
againat the prisoner) who held tho pistol
at ; face, aud shot over my head."
