WITMILISHMENT OF A REPUBLIC

The MMII/111t Caledonia arrived et Boston on
Monday night with 13 days later intelligence from
tamps, having left Liverpool on the 12th inst.
Tllet.intlalnnunt of the Revolution in Francs is
hilly warmed. The Liverpool Times of March
12 fart :
,it ititaid that the revolution has spread
throughout Frarice. All the Departments
thaveioined• the Republic. Louis Philippe
and the Royal family, with Guizot, have
arrived in England.
The revolution in France is now aufait
'weeomple. The aleheatiou of Louis Phil-,
epos; the appointment and rejection of a'
11.dgeney, the complete triumph of the Par-
Olken* over the army, the establishment of 1
'elvorisignal 4overnment, the proclaim ofd

Peers and titled distinction, the precipitate

Orleans family and their misguided minis
'try moor own shores or other places °lex-,
de; the immediate recognition of the new
Republic of Fraere by Great Britain, Bel-
gium, Switzerland, and the United States,
have all fallen in such rapid succession,
that the events of every hour come teem- ,
ing with some mighty occurrence affecting . ;
. the ilectrines of whole nations and dynes-
ties. The speculations, respecting the caus
el, incidents and probable results of this I
sudden, serious, and mighty social convul- t
rion, - are various and weighty.
The facts stand out in historical bold- `
nese of outline, depicted in such indelible
characters that they must endure until the
last syllable of recorded time. A provis
ional government has been organized by
our neighbors, the members of which are
celebrated throughout the world for genius,
eloquence, and science. Some of them
are of almost romantic integrity. Carried
away by the eloquence of Lamartine, the
excited, ungovernable mob of Paris threw .
down the muskets, which in the first fury
or their newborn zeal for liberty they had
taken up against the popular leader, and
by; their unanimous shouts invested the
provisional Government w fullauthority.
'As . the. Revolutiou of July was the work
of the Bourgeoise, so is the revolution of
1848 the act and deed of the working clas
nes, who have sealed the inauguration of
their labors with their own - bthritt
The question whieVevery one asks of
his neighbor is ..will it last?" Every man
in England and, we believe, elsewhere,
hopes so. Lamartine himself says, in his
address to foreign powers-- , ./re desire,
for humanity, that peace may be observed.
Hi even hope for it." Sincerely do we re
*rho these words, applying them emphat
. Wally. even in a more enlarged sense than
M. Lamartine. We hope that peace may
be observed both without the Republic and
within the sphere of its domestic dominion.
Our sympathies, nay, our interests, are all
interwoven with the maintenance of peace,
but the great social problem which these
men, who are aiming togovern millions by
a stroke of the pen, is of too intricate and
complex a character at once to be solved.
The difficult question of human labor, the
real and only source of wealth,and its more
equal distribution, is the great argument to
des - height of which they propose to direct
all their efforts. They may cut this Got
than knot, but the surer process of de
veloped industry founded upon peace and
security far exceeds the ephemeral power..
Of any provisional government, however
absolute or well disposed. "To make a
government,' said Mr. Burke, more than
haft' century ago, upon a similar occasion,
,"requires no great prudence ; settle the seat
of power—teach obedience, and the work
is done. Hut the formation of a free gov
ernment is to temper together the opponents
of liberty and oppression, which requires
much thought and deep reflection--a saga
cious, powerful and combining mind."
The French are but in the first stage of
transition. They must not only teach,
but they must secure obedience from the
befcire the regular edifice which is
'to crown their hopes can be raised. If the
foundations are laid in peace, the French
people may 'erect a proud monument, to
--eansetnrate throughout all ages the glory and
liberty of a gallant people. But if the ele
ments'of war insinuate their fatal agency
into the fabric, the whole will assuredly
crumble into dust, and.perish.
- The French as yet are hut in the first
stage of transition. They must not only
teach, but they must secure obedience
from the masses before the regular edifies
which is to crown their hopes eau be rais
ed. If the foundations are laid on peace,
the French people may erect a proud mon
ument to consecrate, throughout all ages,
the glories sod liberties of a mighty and
gallant people. But if the elements of
war insinuate their fatal agency into the
fabric, the whole will assuredly crumble
into the duet and perish.
The Provisional Government became
constituted by an usurpation, or by the free
choice of the mob ; but however that may
be, eleven members established a Supreme
authority rt the Hotel de Ville; Royalty
and the Peerage were swept away in a few
brief lines; bur hunger, gaunt hunger,
with one hundred thousand mouths yawn- i i
around the seat of government.
,Something was to be done immediately

the gigantic system of out-door relief was I
conceived and executed. Formidable le.,

becoming more numerous daily ; opera

have expelled large bodies of the English
workmen, for the rivalry on the construc

The moderate politicians, the represent

from the scene, amidst the chaos of pas

of things has engendered.
England waits with her arms folded. in'
deep and anxious alarm, for the next scene
of this strange and eventful history.
FRANCL.—The proclamation of the sove
reign people has now declared that Gov
ernment having betrayed the trust reposed
in it, therefore it is defeat° ind de jure dis•
solved, and that consequently the full ex
ercise of sovereignty has been resumed by
the people. A. Decree has been passed
showing the basis on which the govern
ment of France will be based, as follows:
The Chamber of Peers representing the
interest(' of the aristocracy, is suppressed;
and the Chamber of Deputies, which has
been the mere representative of privileged
I monopoly and corruption, and the major
ity of whose members have been participa
' tors in the unpardonable crime of the late
government in subjecting the citizens to a
murderous tire, are hereby and remain dis
solved, and the nation is from the present
moment henceforth constituted a Republic.
The citizens will remain in arms until they
acquire the enjoyment of all their rifeits.
Every citizen who has attained hts ma

The people are advised to meet in com

Arago, the Republican Minister 4 Marine,
sent forthe Admirals in Paris. They all
attended. He then addressed them and
asked them if there were any of them wil
ling to serve the Republic. They replied
all. He then said he requested men of
courage and steadiness,—that he knew
them all to be so,--and he was ready to ap
pint to the commadd of the fleet of the Re
publie-any one they might choose.
He therefore appointed, in accordance
with their recommendation, Admiral Hou

PARIS, Feb. 29th.—Mr. Rush, Ambas
sador of the United States, accompanied
by Mr. Martin and Maj. Pisson also. wait
ed on the members of the Provisional Gov
ernment, to whom he delivered a flattering
address. The following details of this In
terview are taken from the National of to
day :
The Representative minister of the U.
States went to the Hotel de Ville, in form
at recognition of the Provisional Govern
ment. It was an appropriate representa
tive of the Union to be the first to welcome
one infant Republic, for there is no bond
more powerful between nations than com
munity of sentiment. The step taken by
the Minister of the U. States has made ex
isting circumstances of serious importance.
Although fully awaited, it has touched a.
cutely die members of the Provisional
Government, and after an interview, in
which were exchanged the noblest senti
ments, they in a body accompanied this
representative of a great nation to the
threshold of the Hotel de Ville,. as a proof
of the cordial a ff ection which must ever
exist between the American and French
Republics.
A deputation of 280 citizens of the U.
States resident in Paris waited on the• Pr
ovisional Government on the 6th of March,
and tendered it their congratulations upon
the success of the Revolution. M. Arago
received from the deputation a flag-staff,
bearing the French and American flags,
with the remark that it soould be placed in
the Hotel de Aille, and he trusted that
"despotism shall never attempt to snatch
it thence."
It could hardly be expected that the great
movement in France should not have pro
duced some effect in.the British Islands.
lu London, a slight disposition to riot was
experienced in the early part of the week,
but the disorders were confined to mischie
vious boys and men out of etnployment.
Order was soon restored.
In Manchester some tendency to disturb
*Tice has been exhibited, but every thing is
now quiet.
IN Liverpool tranquility has been undis-
Limbed. A number of unemployed por
ten and others have assembled in the Ex•
change, but no political feeling is observa
; ble.
In Ireland no breach of the peace has
occurred, hut the exciting language of a
certain portion of the press, whickourpas
es anything within recollection, has not
escaped the attention of the authorities.—
We have no apprehension of any serious
disturbance of the public peace throughout
tigiand generally, by a rising from politi
cal opintbni, although the depressed state
of trade and the existing uncertainty inci
dent to the affairs of the continent, might,
we fear, produce a state of disquietude and
suffering among theiclasses for coins time
to come.
LOINS PHILIPPI IN ENGLAND.—pThe Ex-
King and Queen of France arrived at New-
HaVen, Brighton, on the 3d Inst. On land
ing, the King was dressed in a green blouse
and blue overeoat, borrowed from the Cap
tain of the Express, as he had note change
of clothing. The king and queen had,
for some days, been moving from farm
house to farm-house, in the neighborhood
of Treport, France. They were nearly
exhausted by fatigue; and on -his arrival,
the King stated that a night or two back,
be must have given himself up.
On Thursday the ex-King and Queen
with a male and 'female attendant, their
sole retinue, embarked in a French fishing
boat front Sear Treport, with the intention
of ittiamptin,' t to cross, the channel. At
sea the party wee picked., up by the Ex
press Southampton and Havre Steamboat,
which immediately steered for New Haven,
Yeagar
is the morning. On landing the ex-King
and Queen were 'welcomed by the inhabi
tants, nearly the whole of which floated
out, and were gratified by being shaken by
the hand by Louis Phillippe. /
The King and Queen proceitiled to the
Bridge Hotel. Her Majesty's first act in
reaching the Hotel was to despatch a mes
senger to Brighton to procure the attention
of Mr. Packhouse ; the second to write
our gracious sovereign, communicating in
telligence of her arrival.
The following we believe is a correct
statement of the present abode of the dill ,
lferahl mernbers of theTanailY ; Lonis Phil
lippe and Amelia, who have assumed the
title of Count and Countess de Neuilly,
are at Claremount, with whom are also
the Duke and Do - chess de Nemours and
two children, the Count d'Alencon, and the
Duke and Duchess de Montpansier, with
the Duchess Augusta of Saxe Cobourg.—
The Princess Clementine ja staying with
her husband the Duke, on a visit •to her
Majesty at Buckingham Palace. The
Duchess d'Orleans, with the Count de
Paris and the Duke de Chartres, is stated
to have arrived at Ems. The Prince and
Princess de Joinville were at Algiers at the
latest dates, and the Queen of the Belgian's,
the Princess Louisa, are at Brussels.
PRUSSIA.—.A correspondent at Cologne
writes that the middle classes of Prussia,
as in the Rhenish States, are determined
to achieve political independence, and have
a voice in government. They are peace
ful and devotedly attached •to the govern
ment, but firmly assert their rights.
Aosraia.—The resignation of Prince
Metternich is announced for a certainty in
Paris. On the Bth the oews of events in
Paris caused consternation at Rhiems.—
There was a grand council of all the min
isters. The news of the event was de
spatched in all directions. The French
Ambassador at Vienna is said to have faint
ed on hearing the hews. He started on
the next day for France. Thirty thousand'
troops are to advance to Italy without de,
lay. At Munich a rising has taken place,
and a constitution extorted from the king
at the point of the bayonet itself.
Itaxv.—The ,Jesuits alarmed by the
demonstrations made against them by the
people, have already quitted the city of
Turin. The Journal of Turin fully ap
preciates the tendency of the French Rev.
olution, encouraging the king to put him
self at the head of the national forces to
effect the salvation of Italy.
Advicei from Genoa announced the ar
rival of an American squadron in that port.
The latest advices from Italy stated that
the king had once more violated his solemn
promise, and has carried fire and sword
into the city of Messina, which had been
bombarded foity hours by royal trnops.—
The Punto Franco healmost entirely burn
ed down, causing a loss of ten Aliens of
Fence. It is said that the Messinese have
attacked the citadel of that city and taken
it• by force.
Tenants Sniewasett.—Ober One hun
dred Lives Lost—Dreadful Suffering.—
By the way of Boston, we learn that the
barque Aurora, reported by the Highland
Mary, at New Ydrk, as taking on board
part of the passengers of the British ship
Omega; from Liverpool, arrived at Halifax,
on Saturday week, with seventy-three of
these unfortunate people, having landed
thirty-three at Canso, and , the remainder,
about sixty; having died on hoiril: . Many
of the survivors are suffering from, sick
ness. During the last seventeen days
they were on board the Aurora; the allow
ance of food was limited to 21 ounces of
bread, and a wine *lass of water each day
to every out, on board. The British brig
Barbara, Captain Skinner, from N. York
for Cork,_ with a..eargo of corn, took on
board about 157 more on the llth Febru
ary, And afterwards bore away for, New
foundland. On the 241 of March, the steam
er Hibernia, Captain Shannon, from New
York, via Halifax, hove in eight; a signal.
of distress-: was aide.; the steamer bore
down to the Barbara, when the captain of
the latter vessel acquainted the steamer
that they were out of water, and it was
further added, there were one hundred and
fifty persona on board dying for want of
water—to which the captain's reply from
the steamer was : "there is the land ; go
there and get it"—a,nd then passed un
showing any inclination, or making any
effort torender them any assistance, though
the wind had been blowing off the land so
strongly at the time that it was impossible
to makeit. In attempting to reach St. John.,
N. F., they mistook the land and drifted
into a cove at the entrance of Petty Har
bor, N. F., and went ashore, and, on ac
count of the heavy surf, struck a cliff and
stove a hole in her prow. Thirty-five in
dividuals managed to reach the shore, and
and in about fifteen minutes after, the Bar
bara fell over and went down, carrying
with her about one .hundred and fifteen
abuts, among whom was Captain Skinner
of the Barbara.
Umbrellas were used in Philadelphia in
1771. • They were clumsy and awkward.
Previously to this period, doctors wore

Committee on Capital Punishment in the
Senate of the State of New York have
made an unanimous report in favor of its
abolition.
FROM TILE SEAT OF WAR.
HOSTILITIES SESPENDED I
The steamship Massachusetts, and the
ship Danvers, arrived at New Orleans
from Vera Crux; the latter bringing dates
to the 12th inst.
An -Armistice has been signed, by urhish
it is agreed that the Americans are not to
occupy any part of the country not now
in their possession; the collection of taxes
is suspended, except those on gaming
houses, ligunr-shops, and places of amuse
ment : when elections are held at any place
occupied by the American forces, they are
to tvithdrfw horn the Waite:W=llle lotto
until the election is over. Therkee a
number of other articles, giving the Mexi
cans almost the entire right to the govern
ment. '
General Lane, we see, left the'Capital on
the 17th ultimo. About the fourth day he
arrived at Sequal.taplan. Before his arri
val, however, information reached him
that a thousand ' Mexican lancets. were
posted at that place. - When they got op
posite to the Anti house, at the edge of the
town a volley of escopette balls was fired
from the inside. The doors , y,eritiprced
open, and the assailants kille7l.. At the
next honk, the Scene was repeated. The
town was then assaulted, the enemy , firing
from every house. The enemy was soon
driven from every position, and collected
in a body outside the town, pursued by
Gen. Lane and Col. Hayes. rut Mexi
cans were terribly cut up—about one hun
tired-al them-being-killed: 4n-sheitetiery
the American loss was one man killed, and
four wounded. Fifty prisoners were ta
ken ; among them Capt. Montano and two
lieutenants. Lieut. Col. Montano ifather
of the captain) and Martinez, a osom
friend ot . ,farauta, escaped.
It Was rumored that Gen. Pillow and
Gen. Worth had been restored to their
commands.
The debarkatinn of our troops was cel
ebrated at Vera Cruz on the 9th.
Some difficulty had occurred with the
Ayuntamiento of the capital respecting a
suspension of the assessment for four days,
until the armistice was signed ; the mem:
hers had all sent in their resignations to the
Governor. The Archbishop had written
a protest against the heavy assessments on
church property.
Santa Anna was again at Tehuacan on
the 12th ; the Government had given him
the passport ho desired. It was supposed
that in asking it, he intended only to de
ceive the Government, and to put himself
at the head of a large body of troops.
The Court in Gen. Worth's case had
not yet convened.
Ad vices from Queretaro state that Con
gress was slow in coming together ; at the
last meeting there were but twenty mem
bers.
Tux TARIFF or '46.—The Delaware
County Republican states that one of the
most extensive manufacturing establish
ments in that county intends reducing the
wages 20 per cent. This is just the be
ginning of the end ; and almost every mail
brings us the intelligence of the stoppage
of some establishment or the reduction of
wages. These are some of the "blessed
effects"which. Mr. Buchanan said would
flow from the-46riff of 1848. Where are
the locofocos who in 1844 said that "Polk
was a better tariff man than Clay—that if
the former were elected, the Tariff of '42
would not be disturbed ?" Time has ver
ified all the Whig; predicted in 1844.
The repeal of the Tariff of '42—The Mex
can War drc., were Kehl up to the people
as the inevitable result from elevating such
a man as Polk to the Presidential chair ;
but the locofocos, who stopped at nothing.
and led on by a partrzeal never witnes
sed before, contradicted all this. But time,
which brings all hidden things to light, has
removed the curtain, and the treachery
and iniquity of the locofoco party are held
up to public gaze... They stand convicted
of committing mfe of the basest political
fraua3s on record. Will the locofoco ora
tors ever have the audacity to again ap
pear before those whom they have deceiv
ed, after perpetrating such a fraud as the
one alluded to? Vitters of Pennsylvania,
ring it in their ears, that however much
our manufacturing interests may suffer,
the cause must be charged home upon
them.
CONTPIPT OF COURT.—Hon. Pierre
Soule, a leading member of the Her at N.
Orleans, and recently elected to represent
Louisiana iu the Senate of the U. States
for six years after the 4th of March next,
was sentenced by Judge M'Henry, on the
16th instant. to imprisonment for twenty.
four hours, and to pay a fine of one hun
dred dollars, for a contempt of Court. A
large number of persons visited Mr. S.
while in confinement, and when liberated
he was escorted home by upwards of fif
teen hundred persons. The demonstra
tion is very generally condemned, we are
happy to see, by Abe New Orleans press.
as savoring of insult to the Judicial author
ity, and as encouraging contempt for it.
FATAL Arvaay.--On Sunday last a hor
rible stray occurred between two insane
persons confined in the Lancaster county
hospital. One of them,(William Trego)
assaulted the other, (Sa muel Smith) with
&knife, and inflicted several wounds, which
caused his death in a shortttime after

you on leaving home, I am about to address you
a few lines, which will derive most's( their value

a stone's throw of the Forum of old Rome. i I have
I been five or six days in this city, so MI of the,
monuments of past sires, @risking of times and

The Coliseum is needing where its founder placed
It, still tiniest entire ; and hard by it, is the Cam.
taro which the gladiators, who survived the
combat in which they were engaged, washed the

the modern city stands the Pantheon, in a state of
preservidlin which iswonderful, when it is recol
lected that it was built sevend centuries before the
Christian Era. The gods have been removed
from the niches which they occupied to the gal
leries of modern Rome ; where they stand as mon
uments of ancient genius in the art of sculpture.
The column erected to Titus for his victory over
the Jews, as well as the triumphal arch through
which ho made his entry into Rome, is still entire
with its this relief, rep senting the assault upon
the city of Jerusalem ; and some of the trophies
which be carried awl with him, especially the
seven candlcsucks ctrl the goolden table 1 the

the great Appian Way, which, like the arch, at

of the Scipio, and the Cornelii.
But a description of the ruins of Rome, such as
I could give - you in a letter of ordinary lenghth,
would 'Cord you but little satisfaction. If we
should both live to meet, I will some day give you
a description which will be more extended and
more satisfactory. I will therefore dekote the bal•
once of my sheet to a description af things that
are more modem, and acutely of leas interest.
In architecture, Rome. in some respects, exceeds
all the rest of the world. St. Peters is a wonder
of architectural skill. Its dimensions, as a whole,
arc greater than any other building in the world;
but, notwithstanding this, yon are not at all struck
with either its extent, superficially, or its height,
when approaching it. Theme is such a harmony
in the proportion of every thing, that you aro de
ceived in regard to the vastness of the edifice. I
will mention one fact in illustration of this. On
entering the church, near the altar you see. cher
ub on either hand, siffiiih appears to be the size of
as infant, two or three months old. As you ap.
prouch you remain deceived as to the size, until
you come to examine them closely, when you dis
cover that they are gigantic marble statues, much.
larger than the largest sized men. In looking at
the vast ceilings, you wonder how such arches ev
er were spiting, and almost feel that the genius
and power which was sufficient for such a purpose
might have built the vault of heaven itself, Fly
ely new view of St. Peters increases the awe with
which you behold it. The men at work upon its
cupola look, from the ground, like flies creeping
about upon it. But you have seen better descrip
tions' of this world-renowned edifice than I can
give you
Many of the galleries of Rome are filled with
paintings and sculpture of the great old masters.
At the capitol are two or three of the most
renowned works of art, extant in the world.
The &Indere .fppe!lo, a statue by Phidias, is the
second, if not the first, statue in the world. In
the judgment of most persons the Venus dr Medt
re, at Florence, by Cleomenes or Praxiteles. (it is
not ascertained which,) is regarded as the chef
d'eaurfre of sculpture. This is my own opinion,
though I pretend to but little skill in such matters.
But without entering into the controversy which
amateurs wage on the subject, it is eiough to say,
that it is astonishing how the chisel should ever
have imparted to the shapeless block of mar.
ble ouch perfection of form, such inimitable
expression and life-like appearance as these stat
ues possess. In looking at the Venus in the
Ducal Gallery, at Florence, you nn almost
fancy that you we her breathe, that you see
• her becoming animated with thought and hfe.—
Another of the great wonders of art at Rome, is
the Dying Gladiator, executed likewise in marble.
Here again you stand astonished at the • power
which genius possesses to make even the cold done
speak. In the countenance of the dying &ladle
tor, you see depicted the unshaken courage which
carried him through the combat; but you see
like
wise the bitter grief which rings his heart, es his
last thoughts turn upon his wife and children, who
are far away in the foresee of the meth, from which
he was himself torn by his cruel conquerors. I
cannot' now particularise all the works of excel
lence of this sort which Rome containe. She is
regarded seethe richest city in the world in statuary ;
while Florence Is regarded the richest in Paintings.
At Florence its collected the master pieces of the
most eminent painters that ever lived. There Ra
phael, the greatest of them all, is represented by
his Minions Della Seggiols; Titian by his Made
line; Guido by his Lucretia; Carlo Doke by his
Madeline; Andrea Del Sato by his Holy Fend
ly ; Dornenchino by his Annunciation ; ease Fe
nno by his Virgin; &c. ribc. Previously to my

Beeman :—On Monday last. I attended
the examination of the pupils in the r'New Oxford
rolltgiate hatoutr." at the close of the
wilder session ; 1111 d I deem it but common justice
to give a public expression to the feelings of gest

It is a common remark that men are too apt to

those that he at their feet. Person; who have
lived all their lives within the sound of the rush
ing waters of Niagara, have been known to roam
thrimeh foreign tends in search of the picturesque
and sublime, without ever having seen the "falls."
This may help to account for the faet that so little
is known, and so little interest exhibited. by our citi
zens in regard to this truly admirable Institute.
The Principal, Dr. M. 1).1; Pr Mersa, is a gen
tleman, not only of acknowledged skill in his pro
fession, but of various and extensive learning; and
his Assistant, Mr. Slla as, if I am to judge from
the-fruits of NA teaching, as exhibited in his pupils,
possesses, in an eminent degree, the qualifications
of a successful teacher.
The pupils were, in the course piths day. ex
amined in Arithmetic, English Grammar, History,
Geography, Algebra, Naomi Philosophy, Geom
etry, and the Greek and Latin languages; and I
was at once pleased and surprised at the prompt
ness of reply, correctness' and proficiency they ex
hibited.
- There was now of that herebug so often -dia. -

part of the pupils, of lessons specially conned for
the occasion; but they were examined prondettur.-
°wily on such parts as any date audience mdtkraiL
within the range of their acquirements.
But what most of all pleased me, was the evi—
dence furnished by envoy pupil, from the youngest
to the oldest, that he not only recollected, but un—
derstood what he had learned—that towns trained.

wmas 'Nerr t—The authorities of the
city of Charleston (S. C.)have prohibited
the sale of the "Discipline of the Method
jet , Church, South," because it retains a
section of the general discipline of the
Church which testifies to The ..great evil
of slavery" and inquires how it may be
“eitirpated." And what is perhaps even
more kilruing,
_ilia Anaitita c9oference, of
that state sanctioned the uncomplain
ing submission of the Charleston clergy &
• laity to the restriction. So that the South
ern branch of the Methodist Episcopal
Church is in the singular position of hav
ing an authorised code of discipline which
cannot be circulated among its members.
SINGULAR PREDICTION.—The French
Courier states that among the papers of
one of the marshals (since decased) at the
celebration of the French Revolution in
1880, was found a sealed package with
the following inscription : "To be opened
on.occasion of the coining revolution in
Freda.' As the event has now taken
place, the package has been opened and
found to contain the badges worn by the
deceased at the proceintion of 1830, with a
detailed description of the ceremony. On
the interior of the wrapper was written:
-To serve on occasion of the next revolu
tion in France, which will take place about
the year 1847." It would have been dif
ficult to make a more just prediction.
MR, BUCHAN/Oh—The John Donkey
hits Pennsylvania's Favorite Son, so shock
ingly hard, that the (latest mind can ap
preciate its severity, and be inclined to pity
the victim ; at the same time a sight of
the caricature will cause a smile in defiance
of all the efforts to repress it. Mr. B. is
represented as a Thimble Rigger, or as a
French ()endemic, on the Race Course,
with his cups on his thigh, marked '46 and
'42 while he says : "Now its under the
Tariff of '42, and now its under the Tariff
of '46. Now you see it, and now—you
don't see it; and I'll but twenty-five thou
sand dollars a year that he can't tell where
the little joker is."
Matt itonsett.—For sometime past mo
ney has been missing from the mails in
Bradford and Susquehanna counties, and
eventually suspicion attached to Jas. Sick
ler, a mail carrier on one of the routes, and
for the purpose of detecting the robber the
Post Master at Mehoopany mailed $2OO
ter Priiladelphia, Sickler being present at
the time. The Post Master then follow
ed the mail to Easton, where he found the
package containing the money missing,
and returning immediately pursued him
to within seven miles of Towanda, where
the fellow was overtaken, and tits being
searched. the money was concealed in the
toe of his boot.
AWFUL ETFLCTII or INTEMPERANCH.—
'rho dead bodies of George and Jonathan
Archer, father and son, were found on the

Monmouth county, N. J. The father had
a quart jug containing liquor under his arm,
and another half gallon jug, nearly full,
was found a short distance from the bodies.
BEWARE OF COUNTER/WTI AND 'MITA
TIM:I.—The unparalleled and astonishing
efficacy of DR. WISTAR'S BALSAM
OF WILD CHERRY, in all the dime
es for which it is rocommendnd, curing
many cases after the skill of the best phys
icians was unavailing, his effected a late
and increasing demand for it. This fact
has caused many unprincipled counterfeit
ers and imitators to palm off spurious mix
tures, of similar name and appearance, for
the genuine Balsam. Some arc called
"Syrup of Wild Cherry," "Balsam of
Spikenard," " Wild Cherry Comfrey,"
die. Another "Waster's Balsam of Wild
Cherry," mispelling the name, and forging
certificates to resemble those of the true
Balsam. "Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry," is the only genuine. The rest
merely imitate the name of the original,
while they possess none of its virtues.
Look ma to the Mark, of the Genuine.
The genuine Balsam is put up in bottles,
with the words "Dr. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry, Philad.," blown in the glass ;
each bottle bearing a label oh the front with
the signature of H. WISTAR, M. D.

be dry, and the phlegin would rattle on my

wail. A friend who had used your Expectorant
ad•ived me to try it, which I did, and am happy
to inform you that I have been cured by the use

phlegm, which came up in large quantities, and
by the time I had taken the whole of it I felt like
another person.
