ble source that the month of June, which
has just &Wed, hes btent extraordinary in
several respects. Ackttate metereological
data, running through the last fifteen years,
show-that it has been the driest month du
ring that period: The quantity of rain
which fell in any June of that period was
not less than 1.15 inches, whereas during
the month just elapsed there was not more
than j inch. It has also been the hottest
month, the them:meter Writ% been above
99° for nine days, and 'several times as
high as 98° and 99°. Vegetation is suf

East Berlin, and the appointment of Mr.
Woods in his stead, we alluded to the re
neat incumbent of the Ablitittlitbilyn office
as having been a Democrat also. We
were under the impression that Mr. Ickes
(Whig) had resigned at the close of Mr.
Pikbnore's Ainsinistration in favor of a
Democrat, and had been so informed.—
This. it seems, Was a- mistake. Mr. Ickes
remained in office utitil removed by the

of 32 large quarto page., under the above
title, at $5,00 per year, that promisee to
be one of the best journals ever published
in the country-. The 'Living Age,' pub

years presented to the American public
the choicest literature of the Old and New
World, and we may expect the "Franklin,"

THE FOURTH AT HANOVER.—
The citizens of Hanover are making liberal
preparations for the reception of the Balti

, canoe has ceased to be at virtue: Many of
us have been compelled to sell our time.,
paying from 10 to 15 per coot. to specula
tors, to pay debts which we had contract-
ed to support ourselves and families, and
on those debts had to pay an advance of
from 10 to 20 per cent. more than we
could have purchased for cash, thus losing
at least 25 per cent. of our wages, in o6n- ,1
sequence of not being promptly paid." . As
the money for carrying on the work is rep
ularly drawn from the State Treasury, the
inference is Irresistible that it is withheld
from the laborers by the agents of the Ca:,
nal hoard to enable either themselves or
friends to speculate upon the claims of the
laborers by buying them up at the heavy
discount complained of above. This state
of affairs is disgraceful to the Comtnoti ,
wealth, and furnishes another illustration

co The corder-stone of a Lutheran Fe

on the 23d inst., at Lutherville, about 10
miles from Bahimore, on the Baltimore

Law, for the State and the city of New
York, is a "manifest destiny." If we es.
cape it dow, there is but little prospect :of
escape at the next session. And thus the
Liquor Law rises to the imposing magni
tude of the paramount question of the day ;
for the establishment of this law in New
York will inevitably work out a revolu

parties of the comity." So it will be in
Pennsylvania.

1117" The Census of Great Britain, in
1851, has just been published in two thick
volumes. The number of people returned
were 21,121,907, of whom 10,486,048
were mules, and 10,735,919 females, thus
giving the ladies the advantage. Gu the
night of the census 12,934 were sleeping!
on barges, (vessels,) 9,972 in barns, and
8,277 in the open air or under touts.—
The number of families in Great Britain'
were 4,312;385; inhabited'houses, 3,648,
347. The towns, villages, I:c., in Great
Britain, number 17,1501 The British
Isles, 500; inhabited, 176. Great Britain
has upwards of 21 millions, and Ireland
upwards of 6 millions of souls. Anglesey,
Jersey and the Isle of Mad - have 50,000,
and Guernsey, Lewis,• 6k - ye and Shetland
over 20,000. These numbers, however,
rapidly descend in the remaining islands
from 10,600 to 1,000, 500, 400, 100, 40,
30, 20, 10, and, finally, at Indicant', an
appanage of Fife, there is . au island with
only one man of i it.
THE BEAT.-- I From all' quarters, we
have complaints of the excessive heat of
last week, from the effects of which we
have accounts of many deaths, The Bee-i
ton papers state that the thermometer bad
reached 97°. In New York it had reached
97°, and nut-of-door work was generally
suspended. In Harrisburg and also Phil
adelphia, it went as high as 9S°, at Cin
cinnati 98, at Pittsburg and Wheeling 98°,
at Hagerstown from 90 to 99, and• nt
Fredeiiek from 95 to 100. In Newark,
N. J., we notice several workmen fell dead
on the 21st, from the effects of the heat.—
In Philadelphia and neighborhood, we
count three deaths on the 21st and eight
on the 22d, and the New York papers con
tain a long list of persons who died from
the (fleets of the beat, to the number of
30, and say, "about twenty others were
sun struck, and some of them not expect
ed to 10e." These aro warnings which
should act as a caution to the reader to
keep of good temper, eat and drink mod
erately, avoid the sun as much as possible,
and be cautions in drinking ice-water.
