Much value, • especially on prairies, or
wherever the surfer* of the ground is tot
lowed. The vehicle consists of a
large 110110 # wooden wheel, 'fourteen feet
in dreamier and six feet wide; The horses
are placed inside, and propel it along in
the seine manner that a caged sqnirrel
makes ha wheel revolve. Slats are nailed
on the inside floor of the Wheel, by which
the heroes obtain a Pout-hold, In the cen
tre is a small iron shall from which sus
peril hangers which support four coinfnr
table sofas for paysengers ; the wheel thus'
revol tee` hotly, the seats remaining in per
fect equilibrium. 'file arrangement for
guiding the carriage is very simple and ef
leetive ; it can make a much shorter turn
than a stage roach.
A very suaecsbfal trial of one of these
earrieges was recently made on the State
toad between (.7anal Dover and Tusearawas
scanty, Win. which perfectly demon
strated their utilty in transporting very
heavy loads with case and rapidity. The
carriage was tilled by a party of twenty
four ladles and gentlemen, with two heavy
draught horses previously trained to pro
pel them. The distance between the two
places, five miles, was performed in 28
noliautes on the first trip, and 26 mingle);
en the second. The horses are not confin
es{ by ha mess, and as they travel as it were
on an andlees • plank road, their work is
oomperatively easy.
A Naw FACT Dz,eLosao.—We were nut

large extent, by people in business, to as-
Denali' the pecuniary standing of person s.
Debt for newspapers come due once a year;
and persons who pay up regularly for
their papers, are regarded as prompt men,
and worthy of confidence. We had a per

said the man, ••h• owes me shout forty dol
lars, and I can't get it—l don't think he's

and found hint all raid up. We then re
piled to the inquirer, "That man is good
. your debt is safe ; he may have forgotten
it, or somethiug else may have prevented
paying;his hut he is good." Tne ma n's
eyes brightened. Said he—"l have been
to several printers, and could not find where
he took a paper. I thought of you, and
said I would come h'ere." Said he again,
after a pause, “This , is the way to find out
whether people are good. We ascertain
what paper they take, and contrive som e
Way to peep into their account. Men who
are good, are sure to pay their newspapers,
and if they do not pay for these, we do not
think them good." We were forethly
*Fuck With,the idea. "Well." said he,"l
will send my hill by the express." In a
few days the, person came in again. Said
he, "/ sent up my bill." "Well, did he
pay you r "Yes, sir ;" and opening his
hand, he showed a roll of bills. "There,"
said he, give me a printer's books
after all to tell whether a main; good—
they're a complete thermomew ; we al

of such transaction, that a wedding was the

she ground that it was intended as a seren

TIM GERMAN EMPIRE.—The small
states and free towns of Germany have not
only all signified their assent to the elec
tion of the King of Prussia as the head of
tha Empire, but have at the same time ex
pressed a hope that he will without reser
vation accept the constitution as it has
been voted. The Kings alone stand aloof,
and Bavaria and Danover will doubtless
resist to the last, but Saxony is expected
to join. Austria, of course, is the leading
opponent, and in order to frighten Prussia
and to obstruct the movement, she has re
quested the Archduke John not to perse,
vere in his resignation of the post of Re
gent, and has ordered the Austrian mem
bers at Frankfort to discontinue their at•
tendance in the Assembly and return to
their homes. The plea is, first, that the
resolution of the Central Diet, not to ad
mit non-German states such as the Hon- I
widen, Bohemian and Italian dependencies I
of Austria, into the German Union, is op
posed to the rights of Austria, " as secured
by history and treaty," and next, that in
presuming to elect an Emperor the Diet
exceeded their functions. IV bathe r the
German people are sufficiently under the
influence of reaction to recognize that the
history and treaties of a past generation
are permitted to•prevent them from ever
heemning a nation, remains now to be seen.
The Diet, by a subsequent vole of 276
against 159, have declared that they will
nut depart from the constitution as they
have framed it. As to the assertion that
they had no right to proceed to the elee.
lion of an Emperor, tile best reply is that
their body consists of the representatives]
of the people, lairly selected in due 1
pro
portion from each State, and they had just I
as much right to chant a Prussian Emperor
as an Austrian Regent.

BLOODY AFFRAY.-•—lt iiYfefurteu hist at
a place called "The Point, ii ' in Paoide
county, a bloody scene recently occurred.
Some men were playing cards. Two of
them—a doctor and young men, names not
remembered—fell out and concluded to
have a fight with their fists, and welid out
and stripped themselves, but the young men
declined. They then resumed their genie.
After playing awhile the young manse:id
lie was willing ego fight. With: knives;'
whereupon the doettircomtnideed on hint.
After a few mutual stabs the doctor killed
him. His brother then took it up, fought,
and was also killed. The Other brothers
of the two, of whom there were in all eight;
now attacked the doctor and killed hieu.rr.

“Where's Ike Howe Blarket.”
The "Pennsylvanian"' of the lilth
with a recklesuess entirely its own, asks
" Where is the Home Market f" anti adds,
that "the prices of grain are going down
rapidly, as if only to verify the historical
fact that grain always commands the Worst
rates when the Whip; are in power."--
The answer to the question is plain. The
ruinous measures of the late administration
have destroyed the home market by crip
pling every branch of domestic industry;
thereby limited the power of consumption
Hot less than the means to buy ; while the
foreign market, to which our agriculturists
have been told to look, and which in sea•
sons of famine, afforded tolerable prices,
are now abundantly supplied from other
sources. Is it at all singular that under
such circumstances with supplies pressing
upon the sea board markets, and in the face
of declining prices abroad the products of '
the farm should be dull of sale f It is one
of the effects of Locoftwo policy, long for
seen,
and it ill becomes the "Pennsylva
nian" to taunt the farmer under an injury
of its own intliction.—News.
CANADA.—The present distubances in
Canada are a political anomaly. Thay
are the result of an excess of loyality
The Tot ies are setting the laws at defiance
because of their jealous affection for the
Qateeti ! They consider the indemnifica
tion bill an imposition upon her Majesty,
and, to prove the sincerity of this opinion,
act the part of incendiaries. and burn down
public property which will recuire almost
as much money to replace as it is propos
ed to pay the ••rebuts !"
ilut in all that has been done "the revo
lution el Canada" probably never entered
the heads of the rioters. they are oppose
ed to "revolution." The whole affair has
grown out of their unwillingness to have
a law ratified which is intended to bene
fit those who are or have been in"fvuor of
"revolution," combined with their hatred
of the Canadian French. ji they could
exterminate that (which has no sympathy
with the English government) they would

THE MORALS OF "LITTLE LEIII0111."
The Allentown Democrat informs us, that
in charging the Grand Jury last Monday,
Judge Junes paid a high compliment to the
moral character of the iuhabitants of little

worthy of remark,. that for a period of nine
months not a single fiiminal trial had been
jirutight before the Court of Quarter Sea.

rarely occurs, in a district containing thir
ty thousand inhabitants, and Lehigh may
safely challenge liar sister counties to pro

A WORD ON 1111,,t.—Auith of our read
ers who have paid tiny attention to astronomical
matters, are aware that distinguished astronomers
have accounted in the sudden appearance of large
and brilliant Mari in the heavens, and their dia•
appearance again at er blazing forth fora short pe
nod, upon the theory that they are distant worlds
undergoing changes by conflagration, similar to
that spoken of relative to our own globe, when
.! the heavens shall pass away with • great noise,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the
earth also, and the works that are therein shall be
burned up." One of these phenomena is now at
tracting the attention of astronomical observers.
Lieut. lif soar, liuperintendent of the National
Observatory at Washington, says in a late ad
dress :
"It may be that there is noW, at this
very time, in the firmament above, a world
on tire. Argus, a well known star in the
southern hemisphere, has suddenly blazed
forth, snd from a star
,of the second or
third magnitude, now glares with the bril
liancy of the'first."

NOBLE BENTIMENTB —The speech of
Gnv Neill B. Brown, of: Tennessee, in accepting
the nomination of the Whig Convention a Gm
days since, contains the following patriotic and
filial passage, whiCh deserves a plate in every pa
per in the Union : .
•• He congratulated the Whigs upon
their success in the Presidential campaign,
and remarked.that some questions had re.
cently arisen, to one of which he would
allude—the slavery question, arising from
the acquisition ol new territories. He
said that on a gentian such as this, he
need give no pledges—he had in his birth
and education something better than pledges
He deprecated the fanaticism that seeks to
array one portion •of this glorious Union
against another; was Opposed to the prop
osition made in some - quarters, of non-in.
tercourse with the North in case of the
Wilmot proviso ; said • he would not give
one foot of ground .on Bunker Hill, or Ser.
'lege, or Yorktown, for all the land west
of the Rio Grande, though all its hills were
studded with .gold, and its valleys filled
with slaves.' lie was opposed ui those
who would deny the Southern people their
rights in the newly aequired territories,
mid thought that, in the present threaten
ing aspect of things, a compromise should
be made; but he • was for the Union.st all
hazards ; ' fur the South, so; as he
could be eonsietently with the preservation
of the Union, but • lot' the Union at all
events.' Here the speaker passed on to
the. question Wintering! lat pro vemen te sod

Tennessee, and dative to Wisher attain the
high destiny for which Nature intended
,her; and after extending his thanks to the
Convention, and soliciting the active exer.
tions of all, old and young, men and .wo
men, in his behalf, closed his remarks."
For ape, says lb. Nashville Bowser, we admire
and eppleud Gov. Brown for ibe noble wend be

swim, we an with him to the end. His triumph
we look upon es certain before he makes a blow.
ra "TOW ///1 IaND Bwcretaly of State,
has iasurod propoull for a loan of $400,000, at six
per cent. or less, to be relleetuabla in thirty years
after date. This money is to h 0 expended in the
construction of a new railroad, which will super
sede the use of the Inclined plane at the Philadel
phia end of the Columbia (mate) Railroad. The
loan of $400,000 .was authorized by the late Leg
islature.
(o•The Compiler is of the opinion that the
trick of the Loeofoims in attempting to surprise
the Whigs and run in their ticket under profes
sions of " no opposition,' was simply designed to
to scare the Whigs, "and nothing more." That
story, hoWever, wont tally with the ficre so freely
offered at the close of the polls by our neighbor's
political friends, while tinder the full assurance
that the 'Whig ticket bad been defeated..

the nation a service if he removes ev e r y

20 years, or even half of that time. It is
certainly bad policy to create a nest of got ,

sooner General Taylor rids the public of

for the people.
