VHINVIN CURISTIANITIL-Ml accounts,
says the New Vork Mirror, confirm the
hetwessiott that the insurgent party in
China, either sincerely or for political
reasons, have renounced idolatry. and em
braced something which bears resem
blance to Christianity. Idols, idol tem
ples, and idol priests are destroyed from
the pail; of the insurrection, root and
branch, while the proclamations of the
leaders recognise one Cod, Christ, the
Trinity, &c. The creed of the insur
gents is thoroughly Calvinistic. All imps,
which means enemies of the revolution or
friends of the Tartars, are sent, or to be
lent, to hell, while the delights of a pars
ditte, fully equal to Eden or that promised
by Mahumet, is in store for all true be
lievers.
One of the chief insurgent leaders styles
hinted( the younger brother of Christ,
though he utterly fails to exemplify the
precept of the latter," love your enemies,"
and in almost every respect departs far
ennrigh from the teachings of Christ.
"Kill the imps !" is the great battle cry
of the Chinese Christiana. Nevertheless,
if idol worship—which seems to us
the lowest degradation of a professedly
thoughtful and intelligent people—should
be brought in disrepute. the chances are

"Alas !" he replied, ~ a few days ago,

Delegate Sleetloam.
VT Our political friends must not forget
the Delegate elections to-morrow afternoon.
It is at all times important that good and
true men should be placed in nomination
as candidates to be supported by the pee.:
ple, but especially so at this juncture.
There ate breakers ahead, to clear which
requires a sound, judicious and clear-head
ed policy. These delegate elections are
too often neglected by good citisens, indis
posed to raingle in with thesaprimary con
tests, and the determination of Legislativ e
and other candidates is thus frequently
left to a few men in the several townships.
This is wrong. Every citizen is interested
in the selection of good men, and every
citizen should therefore make it a point to
be at the delegate election, and give an
effective expresSion to his wishes. This

PROHIBITION IN YORK. —The

Van Wagner was there on the 16th, 17th,
18th and 19th, with his mammoth tent,
and notwithstanding its immense capacity,
the meetings were so large that great num
bers were unable to gain admittance. The
papers speak of Mr. Van Wagner as being
an extraordinary speaker. We annex
several of the resolutions adopted at one of
the meetings :
Resolved, Thai we hereby respectfully
ask the several parties, when assembled in
their respective Conventions,' to put in
nomination for the Legislature such men
; as will pledge themselves, if elected, to vote
for a law submitting to the people of this
Common wealth whether we shall have
law prohibit ing the sale of intoxicating
quors as a beverage or nut.
Resolved, That if the respective politi
cal patties will not nominate for the Legis
lature men who will pledge themselves, if
elected, to vote for a law submitting the
question of prohibition to the people, that
the County Committee be requested to call
a Convention to settle a ticket composed
of men who will pledge themselves so to
do.
fiiirA new political organisation—call

what Greely would call the following
planks—Universal aincation—reforma

river and harbor improvements and the
extension of Government aid to the Pacific
Railroad—the sale of the public lands to

Salo of the Pointe Works.
The sale of the main line of the public
k works between Philadelphia and Pitts
burg, is booming to engross a largo share
of the attention of the tax-payers of on
' commonwealth. The question is in no way
connected with 4)oHG: o —it is ono of deto
interest to every man in the State, ant
must be met sooner or liter. A writer it
a recent number of the ledger reviews tht
subject at length,
and adduces arguments
to support his position, which should be
generally ktiovie The arguments he ad
vanees'are sustantially these.
The tax-payers of our State, are obliged
to sustain the burthen of an enormous
State dept which is very .oppressive to her
citizens, hind an incubus to hetr prosperity
and advancement. The main line of the
public works has by i.o means equalled tbe
"expectations of thomiwho sanctioned and
directed their construction. Their cost,
according to the Canal Commissioners' re '
ports, exceeded fifteen millions of dollars.
This money was borroded at about 5} per
I cent., and to pay the interest upon they
principal, these works, which' hive been iii
operation now for more than twenty years
should have yielded a mit yearly dividend
of about $825,000. Supposing the has
to have been in operation twenty-one
years, the true net yearly dividend las
been 'only an average of •268,072,*0r
per cent., on the nrighal cost. Thus the
tax-papers of Penonlvania have been
obliged to give yearlAso,ooo to support
the unprofitable pubic burthens, and the
object for which 'heroin erected, viz :
of first paying their on cost, and, event
ually relieving the Stte from an oppres
sive debt—has entiriy failed. Nor are
the prospects for the future more anspie
ions. Than those of tie past have been.
By retaining poasesson of the main line,
the State. sustains 1 yearly loss of from
three to five handed thousand dollars.
Gov. Bigler in his last annual message
states, that " vow of the energetic
competition which las grown up around
us, it would be unsife to anticipate any
increase in the net income for any year
hereafter, until The North Branch Canal
and Portage railroat shall have been com
pleted." And a vow large increase on the
present receipts of the main line, would,
not probably be mere than sufficient to
discharge the inters( of the monergz pend
ed on the Portage and Columbia Railroad.
Hence, if this mail line was sold, even
fur a sum of aevortl millions below its
original cost, the State- would be the
gainer.
The cause of the failure of the public
works is not attributed to the amount of
trade, but to the corrupt management. If
tho works iltould pats into the bands of a
private company, where the controllers are
men selected for their ability, honor and
integrity,rand not because of their services
except their own private emoluments,
they would yield handsome yearly divi
dends.
The subject is recommegdelt o the earnest
attention of the citizens of the State. It
is a subject closely entwined with the
prosperity of Pennsylvania, and unless the
people discuss the matter, and the press
continues to agitate it, the important ques
tion .will not meat pith that share of pub
lic sidentlon to which it is justly en
titied.—Blair Co. Whig.
OtrHistorical developements tell a sad
tale of southern tergiversation. Thurlow
Ward of the Albany. Evening Journal ex
hibits in a clear light the efforts made in
1840 to defeat the nomination of Edward
Everett for minister to England on the
ground of his supposed abolition tendqn
ties. Col. Benton at the same time ex
hibits the faithfulness of John Quincy
Adams, to the interests of the nation in
the settlement of the South Western

NOTES OF A TRIP TO EUROPE.
Messrs. EDITORS :—The greatest luxu
ry a traveller can enjoy i 6 agreeable com
pany. The most charming scenery wears
a lovelier aspect, and the most dull and
disagreeable day loses all its gloom when
your fellow travellers arc intelligent, live
ly and sociable. On our way from Lon
don to Edinburg the company in the cars
was composed of au Irish, Scotch, cud two
English gentlemen. The Scotch man' s man
ners reminded you of the kind and good
host who watches every opportunity of add
ing to the comfort and enjoyment of his
guests. • It seemed as if ho had expressly
provided himself with the numerous little
conveniences which assist in making trav
elling a pleasant pastime. He anticipated
many a wish and joined heartily in every
conversation. The Irishman seemed the
very personification of life and fun.
He related many amusing anecdotes in a
most admirable manner, and said many
good things in a happy way. His every
action showed that be was intent upon the
company's enjoyment. The Englishmen
joined in the conversation and were socia
ble to a certain extent. Being thus pleas
antly situated I need scarcely say I had a
most delightful journey . The country
through which we , bore the stamp of
diligent culture andextraordinary fertility ;
every inch of lhnd was tilled and seemed to
have reached tie highest pitch of-cultiva
tion. The scenery in Scotland is bold and
varied; along the sea coast and rivers it
is most beautiful aidivereified. Through
out the country m 4 be seen pastoral hills
and fertile lawns, cities, towns, and ham
lets alternately crowning the mountain top
or scattered along - the .richly cultivated
plain. Here a dilapidated fortress crumb
ling on, the mountain side, there a richly
cultivated farm stretching in fertile fields
and verdant pastures to the water's edge.—
The scenery in and about Edinburg is bold I
and attractive, and the many interesting
historical associations lend it a charm and
awaken 'for it an interest, which offers ma
ny
rival attractions to the poet, painter
and historian. The appearance of the city
is greatly enhanced by its picturesque lo
cality, and the most striking object which
first attracts the stranger's eye is the bold
outline of Edinburg Castle, and the rug-1
ged rock on which it reposes, frowning down
sullenly on the oit7 below. Anthur s Seat's
is the name of a high mountain at the edge
of Edinburg. From its top you have a
fine view of the surrounding country, which
presents a grand and imposing appearance.
Near by is Calton Hill, wit/sitanaonumenta
to Burns, Prof's. Stewart and Mayfair,
Nelson's Tower, the New Observatory, and
the gigantic columns of the National Mon
ument, crowning the eminence ; below you
is the city, and standing high above it in
isolated grandeur is Edinburg Castle.—
Far to the North are the ram ian
and towards the SoutraThinTsihic. the eye
reposes is as graceful as wood, water, high
cultivation, modern mansions, and foudel
ruins, can render it. At the aide of Edin
burg is the harbour of Leith; its pier, be
ing carried a considerable distance into the
Frith of Fourth, offers a delightful prom
..
made, while it affords all the benefits of
fresh sea breezes. The harbour at Leith
recalls one of the most interesting and im
portant incidents in the life of Queen Mary
L*
Korn from Francs. Having in the
tanC us. 1.1.06 -
has been stationed to prevent her return
ing home, she landed at Leith amid the
deafening cheers of her faithful subjects,
who were overpowered by the mingled feel
ings of joy, sympathy and admiration,
which her youth, the elegance of her mien,
the dignity of her deportment, and the
eloquence of her beauty, had created.—
Here she thus landed to assume a crown
entwined with many thorns. At the foot
of Authur'a seat is Holyrood Palace and
Abbey. Obtaining a guide on Calton Hill,
we started oat together to visit the most
interesting parte of the city. Edinburg is
divided into the new part of town and the
old town. The former is composed chiefly
of modern houses, built in.the most'elegant
style. It extends towards Leith. The
old town is built among the hills, and poll
sesses the greatest interest. It is nearer to
to the Castle. ,Most of its houses remain
unchanged, and wear the queer aspect of
olden Umes. 'Alley. are wooden structures
of the most pieturesqUe style with carved
pannels, jutting porticoes, massy balus
trades, and projecting roofs. Part of the
old wall is yet standing. and many of the
old houses which were built on the side of
the bill reach to the extraordinary height
of thirteen stories. The pour occupy the
greater part of the Old town, and you arc
unable to form any ideaof the filth, wretch
edness and misery in, which they live, un
less you visit it. We think that there is
poverty about our cities, but there are
hovels in some parts of the old town of
Edinburg at which our most degraded slaves
would tarn up their noses in disgust. Im
agine a house thirteen stories high, and a
family occupying each room, and the odd ap=
. pearance of poles projecting from the dif
ferent windows on which are hung, to dry,
the clothes of the different families. It is
a fearful sight to see so many poor and so
little proapectof. relief. Composing at least
one half of the community, you wonder
how it is possible for them all to live. A
large field here presents itself to the char
itable and benevolent. But in this very
place, many of the good people of Edin
burg, forgetting that charity begins at home,
presented Mrs. Stowe with five thousand
dollars. After winding our way up the
side of a very steep hill we reached Edin
bure castle—saw the crown jewelry of
Scotland—the room in which Queen Mary
gave birth to James—the prayer which she
offered inscribed on the wall—the window
from which ho was let down, a fearful
height, along the hill side, when he was
eight days old. Among the curiosities
in the Armory room is the sword of Bruce
and the dirk of Rob Roy. The castle is
fortified iu the best manner—seems im
pregnable,:and has full command of the en
tire town. In front of the moth is placed
the largest and oldest cannon in Scotland;
it was made out of long bars of iron and
hooped like a barrel; it is called Mona
Mag. Leaving the castle for Holyrood
Palace and Abbey, we visited the house in
which Allen Ramsey, the author of "the
Gentle Shepherd," lived, and his grave
—also the house in which John Knox lived.
It is a queer looking old house, with sever
al singular inscriptions ongravcn on the
stone, and has a window shaped something
like a pulpit, from which be formerly
preached. Passing on we saw the house in
which the mother of Mary Queen of Soots
lived—Queen Mary of Guise,

WISTAIPS BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY
was knoirs' many years ago that the wild
cherry Wm of this climate possessed valuable
medicinal properties. Indeed, this fact was known
to the aborigines, and a decoction, of the leaves '
or bark of this Use has ever been ',girded by their
physicians as one of the most effectual remedies
in many diseases, This fact, several years since,
arrested the attention of Dr. Wistar, a highly re.
'portable practitioner of Virginia He investigs•
ted with aim, the heeling properties of the wild
cherry—tested its effects when administereed a.
lone, and when in combination with other remedial
agents. He found that its natural virtues might
be greatly improved, end by combining it with in.
gredients, whose properties were well proved end
generally recognised, a medicine was produced
which constitutes a remedy of great value in
pulmonary affections and diseases of the • cheat
and throat—diseases which are proverbially peeve
lent in our cities and large towns, and often prove
fatal, swelling the bills of mortality to a much
greater extent then is the cue with snit others,
