iNg.The proceedings of the Whig State
Col:mention, held in Lancaster;on the 24th
ult., will be found in to-day's paper. The
candidates are excellent men, well quali
fied for the stations for which they have
been proposed, and their nomination is re
ceived with general favor by the Whip of
the State. We arc indebted to the Har
risburg Telegraph for the following notice
of the nominees :
MIL POWNA LL, the candidate for Canal
Commissioner, is a Lancaster county W big,
a first-rate men in all respects, and stands
high wherever he is known. He is a mem
ber of the present Legislature, and has
made himself many friends by his course
in that body. He stands deservedly high
with all parties. A better man could not
have been found in the State, or one more
thoroughly acquainted with the public
works of the Commonwealth, and who un
derstands how they should be managed to
advance the interests of the State and of
the people, to the best advantage. These
facts will not be denied by his opponents.
Ma. Mcautts, the candidate for Audi
tor general, is a young man of promise
and standing, editor of the Chainbormburg
Whig, one of the best conducted papers in
the State. Ile is "the artificer of his own
fortune," buying raised himself to his
present position by dint of industry and
energy, combined with talent and perseve
rance. ile is every way worthy of the
support of the people, and if elected, will
be found to be a prompt and able officer,
and a faithful agent of the people, in
watching over their interests. Ile is a
strong as well as worthy candidate for the
office to which he is nominated.
JUDGE MYERS, the candidate for the
office of Surveyor General, is the present
Senator from Clarion county, having been
elected in that district, which gives a large
majority against the Whigs. lle is a
wont worthy and est:uncut man, and es
teemed by all who know him. We are
confident that he will receive a much lar
ger vote in the West autl Northwest of the
State, than any other man that could have
been nominated ; and we know of nn rea
son why he should nut in the Middle,
Eastern and Northern parts of the State.
illunterdeavra Academy.
The "First Semi-Annual Exhibi
tion of the Hunterstown English and Clus.
sisal Academy," took place, in the Pies
byterian Church at Hunterstown, on Wed
nesday evening last. Haring been fortu
nate enough to be ono of the very large
and interested auditory in attendance up
on the occasion, we deem it duo to the
young gentlemen who participated in the
exercises of the evening, as well as to the
Institution they represented, to say that
the character of the Exhibition was such as
to reflect creditably upon all concerned—
evidencing as it did a degree of proficiency
in literary culture, for which, in view of
the limited existence of the institution, wo
were not prepared. The exercises consist
0d of Orations, Essays and Dialogues, (sa
-1 lett and original.) We have only space
to give the names of the young gentlemen
in the order in which they occur in the
programme :—S. Neely, F. H. Monfort.

H. Miller, J. C. Neely, Samuel M'llheny,
C. W. Mateer, J. K. bl'llheny. Addi
tions! interest was given to the occasion
by the presence of the "Gettys Lodge
Band," whose very excellent musio fully
sustained the well-earned reputation which
that company has long since acquired.
Mr. CLARKE, the Principal of the In
stitution, is a gentleman of very respell'.
ble attainments, and well qualified to dis
charge the duties of the position be holds.
We are pleased to learn that the Institution
is in a very prosperous condition, and
that it has been attended thus far with
such success as to justify the appointment,

the Legislature to interpose a check, and

NEW USE FOR BED-BUOS.—The
New York Atlas announces that a discov
ery of the utmost importance to wine-drink
ers has been made by Mr. Struggles, a ma
ker of port and champagne wine in New
Jersey. The Lancaster Express, from
which we derive our facts, states that the
rapid consumption of cockroaches which
used to give the nutty and peculiarly pi
quant flavor to wine, had made it difficult
to find a sufficient supply. In this diletu•
ma the wine-maker conceived the happy
idea that bed-bugs might be used as a sub-- 1
stiture. 11. tried the experiment, and the,
result was far more satisfactory than he had i
anticipated. It was found that a quart of
of bed-bugs contained as much of the fla
voting principle as three pints or more of
roaches—and that the former have but lit
tle of that narcotic or sleep-producing ef
fect which is , attributed to the latter.--
Contracts have been made with some of
the fashionable boarding-house keepers iu
Philadelphia and New York for an am
ple supply of this new article of traffic. It
is thought the boarders will be somewhat
pleased wi t h t his intelligence.
RETRENCHMENT AND REFORM.
—The Baltimore Clipper, in an article on
official salaries, remit ks that "the last
Congress was composed of a majority of
'retrenchment and reform' members, pledg
ed to reform abuses and to confine expen
ditures within the most eethotnicai limits
—and yet they raised the compensution of
certain foreign ministers from nine to twen
ty thousand dollars—increased the sia
ries of the several secretaries from five In
eight thousand dollars ; of the Vice Pres
dent from five to eight thousand—besides
voting extra compensation to pages and
other persons employed by Congress, a
mounting in the aggregate to some twenty
or thirty thousand dollars. And these
members will return to their constiinents,
to renew their pledges in favor of retrench
ment and reform. Verily, humbug is tri
umphant in these days, end people are
gulled with surprising facility."
81 - 7-IVe mentioned last week that tho u
amendment passed by the late Congress to
the Post-office law, allowed a Post-master
whose compensation dues not exceed *5OO
l a quarter, one cent for every "free" letter
&livered from his office, and that each
Postmaster ix allowed two mills for deliver
ing front his offi.m to a subscriber, each
newspaper not chargeable with postage.—
These amounts are not to be collected
from the yublir, but are In be allowed by
' the Government to the Poiantaater on the
settlement of his acrount. Betwoeen sub
scribers and Postmasters the law remains
as before. It is only between the Post
masters and the Government, that a change
has been made.
snle of Ike Public Works.
1 1n the Senate, on Monday, Mr.
Evans introduced a resolution which was
adopted, directing the Committee on Fi
nacce to bring in a bill providing for the
sale of the Public Works of the State.—
The vote on the adoption ofthe Resolution
stood 21 to 10. We do not know what
the prospect is for the passage of such al
a bill in the lower House, where the influ
ence of the Canal Board is so controlling.
The impracticability of reforming our pre
sent system of management of the State
Improvements is so palpable that the only
way to get rid of the plunderers that live
and make fortunes at the expense of the
publio treasury, seems to be in a sale of
the Public Works. We believe that pub
lie sentiment is in favor of the proposition,
and we believe the State would gain much
by its adoption.
WHIG PROSPECTS.—The N. York
Tribune thinks that either the Whig par
ty is strengthening itself amazingly in vir:
rioue parts of the State of Maine, or else
the people there are growing sublimely in
different to politics in their municipal oleo
tions. In the cities of Bangor, Hallo
well, Augusta and Belfast, Whig Mayors
have been chosen by very nearly unani
mous votes. There ire not a huidred
votes thrown in opposition to the Whig
candidates in all four of these cities, em.
bracing a population of at least thirty
thousand. Verily the "era of good feel
ing" is returning, or our Democratic
friends are rapidly passing lollop infinites

Death of "Arc Fillmore
Mrs. Fillinore, wife of Ex-President
rillmore, died at W aliard's hotel at 9 o'-
clock on Wednesday morning. She had
been suffering with pnenmunia for some
time pact, but no serious apprehensions
were entertained until within a few days.
The immediate cause of her death was
suffocation, caused by an accumulation of
water upon the lungs. A marked degree
of official respect was shown to her mem
ory—President Pierre, on learning alter
demise, causing all the public departments
to be closed ; and the Selate of the Uni
ted States also adjourned immediately al
ter assembling.

NEWSPAPER EDITORS.—Dr. John

community from whom so much disinter
ested benevolence and thankless labors are
expected as from editors of newspapers.—
They aro expected to feel for every one
but themselves—td correct public abuses,
and private ones, also, without giving of
fence—to sustain the difficulties of others
without regard to their own—to condemn
improper measures of every one and no
one at the same nine. They are expect
ed to note sterytlilog that is important or
ex , raordinary of men's opinions, their
notices must be calculated to please every
one, and at the same time offend no one."

six hundred families, with nutne syn
agogues, and about a hundred copies of the
Law, written, upon parchment, some of '
which were more ancient than any he had
ever peen.' •
But this is not all ; other curious Mails
reached Dr. Philip from another source.
A Jew, who had accompanied a Gorman
traveller as far as Tim buctoo, found near
the boundary of Bambara a large number
of Jewish negroes. Nearly every fatuity
among them possesses the law of Muses,
written upon parchment. Although they
speak of the prophets, they have not their
writings. Their prayers differ from those
of other Jews, and are committed to little
leaves of parchment, stiched together, and
contain numerous passages derived from
the . Psalms.
These Jews have mingled some of the
superstitions of 'oral law' (which they
have not committed to writing) with thinie
of their neighbors, the Multimitulatei and
the heathen. They enjoy equal liberty
with' the other subjects of the African
chiefs, and have their synagogues and
their rabbis. The explanation which they
give of themselves, in connection with their
!flack skin, is this—that after the destruc
tion of Jerusalem, at the time of the first
captivity, some of their aneestors, having
neither goods nor land, fled to the desert.
The fatigue which they endured was so
great, that nearly all the fetneles died by
the way. 'lite children of U4lll received
them with kindness. and by inter-marriage
with their daughters, who were black,
communicated their color to their children.
These children became, generation by
generation, of a deeper hue, miiil no differ
ences of color now distinguish the children
of Sham and those of Hain. The form
of their features, however, is very different
from the negroes around them.
These are highly interesting facts, soul
create a strong desire that these unexplor
ed regions may he speedily opened to in
tercourse with the civilized world. Ac.
cells to these ancient manuscripts, 'which
are probably older than airy other now ex•
