TO POSTMASTERS .—Dering the last
month or two, we have received complaints
from several quarters of the county in re
; gard to the irregular receipt of papers, and
occasionally their loss altogether. In one
or two instances, we have been advised of
1 persons, other than subscribers, being al
-1 lowed to borrow copies of the "Star" from
the Post-offices and neglecting to return
them. This is all wrong. Postmasters,
by laws of Congress, are macro responsible
for the safe keeping and delivery of letters
and papers sent to their °Seas, and noperson
is privileged to have access to them other'
than sworn assistant*. We know that
considerable laxity on this point prevails,
especially in small country offices ; but a
Postmaster, sworn to ripped the laws of
Congress, has no right to permit it. We
hope these suggestions may be sufficient to
obviate the necessity for future complaint.
If not, there may be occasion for commu
nication with the Department at Wash
ington.

New Map of North Americo.
"Monk's Mow Map of North America,"
revised and corrected up to the present
date, is decidedly the best map we have
ever seen. It embraces more territory on
a larger (and all on equal) scale, than any
heretofore published in this country, show
ing the whole expanse of the continent
from the 50th deg. of North Latitude to
within 7 deg. of the Equator. (South of the
Isthmus of Panama,) and from the :plan
tie to the Pacific, Ocean. It exhibits in
due proportion all the United States and
Territories, including even the new terri
tories of Washington and Nebraska, with
their boundaries as fixed by Acta of Con
gress. The boundaries of the counties
throughout the United States, not except
ing California, are also marked ; and by
a table which is as original and quite as
ingenious as the map, the location of any
county in the Union can be ascertained.—
The overland routes to California are
shown in a clear and satisfactory manner,
and the exploring routes are laid down
with equal clearness, and elucidate the pub
lished works on that subject.
On the same sheet, and got up in the '
same handsome, and permanent manner,
is a new map of the World on Mercator's
projection, yet on a new plan,m'aking it au
liriiencem reap. This is an invaluable ap
pendage to the larger one, and makes the
publication all that can be desired aa a work
of reference or study, and equally adapted
to the psrloror the school-room, the closet
of the clergyman, or the counting-room
of the merchant, the lawyer's effuse, or the
shop of the mechanic. '
Mr. Tilpl4A6 M. Nom, the agent for
the map, is now canvassing this county.—
The price of the map is exceedingly low
for a work of the kind, placing it within
reach of almost every family. It forms a
magnificent sheet about b by 6 feet, and
is mounted on rollers. We trust our read
em will give it a thorough examin a tion, its
merits becoming more evident the closer
it is scrutinised. No family should be
without it.

G.v. Bigler and the Democracy.
Ilbtwithatanding all that the Opposition
New my! about the popularity of Gov.
Btomett's administration, and the unauint-
ity of the party aa to his renomination and
election, there is evidently a
.strong under
current of hostile feeling, which all the
care and anxiety of the leaders cannot ef
fectually disguise, It will occasionally
break out and give the lie to the constant
reiteration of the Governor's friends.—
Last July we had a sample of it in Phila
delphia county, and occasionally since iu
Lancaster, Northumberland, Northampton,
and other counties. Recently a muss hue
been kicked up in Westmoreland, the De
mocratic "Gibraltar of the West," and a
mission of the Governor, backed by the
Canal Board, and other personal friends of
his Excellency, to Greensburg, has not on
ly failed to suppress the threatened diffi
culties, but has given opportunity for a
free expression of the hitherto smothered
hostile sentiment. As a sample, we copy
a few paragraphs from a recent number of
the "Pennsylvania Argue," one of the Dem
wade papers published at Greensburg,
which seems to think that the Democracy,
after all, are not quite so unanimous in fa
vor of Gov. Bigler's administration, as
some of the "organs" would have us be
lieve. It will be seen also, that the Argus
more than sustains all that the Whig
papers have charged in regard to the ex
travagance and profligacy of the State Ad
ministration :
[ From the Pennsylranis Argus
We are opposed to the re-nomination
of Governor BigleF for other, and it pos
sible, stronger reasons than the one just
referred to. Our people remember well
his pledge made to them in person, before
the election. Those pledges he has con- !
stonily violated by encouraging the most
profligate and useless expenditure of the
public monies. So mien so, that while
he_peumised us economy and retreheh
ment—and while under like circumstan
res, a portion of the State debt had been
paid during ihe term of his predecessor—
our State debt will, at the end of Govern
or Bigler's term, be some five millions of
dollars larger than it was at the begin
ning !
fie has virtually sustained the Canal
Quaid in their system of public plunder,
at the lettiiion the, Portage Railroad,
whereby the tax-paters were robbed at
one blow of $154,380, (one hundred and
fifty-four_ ltiOtttOittL_ three hundred and
eighty dollars.) by 'neglecting and refusing
to condemn their treachery—as a faithful
guardian of the interest of the people
would led hound to du!
Governor Bigler's organs. here' or els
where, will have it said that he will be
nominated and elected at all events. We
say, thrust) long RS our party stands By
its treat first rule—awl goes for principle,
not men—he never can be nominated—
and if, forsaking dint great rule, the prin
ciples of the party are sacrificed to Gov
ernor Bigler, as a mall, and thereby his
nomination forced upon the party, he never
can be elected.
At this time there are not thirty dele
gates instructed to support tiovernor Ilig
ler. There are forty delegates who will
go into Convention, his open and avowed
enemies, stet so continue. %While of
those who are still in doubt, the oppo
nents of the Governor fire most likely to
be in the majority. 11 such is the posi•
Lion •if things sinong the delegates—the
masses of the people are still more deci
dedly against Governor Bugler's re•nuuti
natiott.
In this county, that feeling of hostility
is almost unanimous. in Philadelphia
City and County, in Allegheny, North
ampton, Indiana, and a number of other
counties, the party will never suppport
hint ! All over the State, the same leaven
is at work among the people, and is only
prevented from breaking out by the adroit
maneuvering of interested politiciana and
oflce•holders. They prevented an ex
pression against Bigler in Berke county,
in this very way, with the aid 'of their
game of Brag ! For it is well known that
'Jerks desired and still desires a favorite
son of her own for Governor in his
stead.
We say, then, broadly, that Governor
Diglei cannot be re elected if lie is ;mini.
noted. It will not do in Pennsylvania to
force a candidate upon the Democratic
party. That game has been unsuccess
fully tried by reckless politicians more
than once, and we trust it is not now to be
repeated with like disasterous results.
On Monday last the Democratic County
meeting of Westmoreland county, passed
resolutions against the re-nomination of
Biorme, with but six dissenting voi
cos. It was the largest meeting ever held
in the county. The Canal Board was also
denounced, and the course pursued by the
two Democratic Journals, the Argus and
Republican, in their opposition to Gov.
Bigler's administration, was sustained.
THE SUNDAY LAW.—Judge JONES,
of Bork. county, at the opening of the
Court on Monday, the 7th, devoted part of
his charge to an elucidation of the Sunday
Law. The Press states the Judges posi
tion lo be—
"'l'hat the enfercement of the Sunday
Law was strictly within the province of
Aldermen and Justioxe of the Peace, and
that the Court bad no jurisdiction in re
gard to said laws ' except upon certiorari
or writs of error from the action of those
officer.. The penalty imposed is four dol
lars for each violation of the act of 1794,
which prohibits all worldly employment,

111[7"The Young Men's National Demo
, erode Club of New York has issued an ad
dress to the National Democraoy,of the U
nion, in which they olearly and distinctly
set forth the course the Now York Hard
Shells intend to pursue in the future
The address is signed by the non. James
T. Brady, Hon. John Wheeler, and oth
ers. In referring to the result of the lute
election, they say
wile. majority was obtained through
the votes of men actuated exclusively by a
deliberate determinaticn to maintain the
principles of the true Democratic faith,
alike against the open and secret faith.—
Our victory was achieved, although the
President and his Cabinet, the State ad
ministration, the combined influence of all
who hold office under either the National
or State executives, and the efforts of
those who adhered to the Yree Soil faction,
in the hope of reward, wore all exerted a
gainst us."
lti this determination they are strength
ened by the conviction that they have the
sympathies and will have the support of the
truly honest and independent of their par
ty. They say :
"The vote has shown that the people
are with us,and will remain with us, though
President. Cabinet, and all the scheming
politicians who MI or seek office, unite
for our overthrow; and we assure you that
our glorious victory gives us conclusive
evidence that the support of this State
need never be expected hereafter by any
administration or individual, except upon
the express condition of recognizing us, and
us alone, as the Democratic party."
Referring to the future, and the impor
tance of active co-operation on the part of
those in other States who agree with them
in sentiments, we find some expressions in
tho address which are significant, and point
pretty distinctly to the Hon. Daniel S.
Dickinson for the Presidency. We refer
to such remarks us the following :
"We call upon the young men in this
State, and throughout the Union, to begin
forthwith patriotic and thorough organi
zation ftr the next Presidential contest.—
We may have to contend, until 1556, a
gainst those in power, from whom we
should rather export cheerful and efficient
aid. We have no &Ott that a combined
effort of the national democracy will wake
it certain that wheu wo next elevate ono
of our party to the highest station, no in
trigue of traitors lurking among us will
induce the ~,an of our Fdeelioll to disre
gard the wishes or oppose the interests of
the party by which he was elevated. We
have already commenced the campaign."
ste-The following brief but pointed let
ter from lion. Daniel S. Dickinson, in res.
passe to complimentary resolutions passed
by the Old Line Democracy, at a recent
meeting, is significant of what President
Pierce may expect fruits that portion of his
party during the balance of his adminis
tration.

Issj...lt is true that the United States
and British Commissioners tendeied to ex.-
President Van Buren the office of Umpire,

The post, the Albany Atlas says, was press

sioners, and seconded warmly by Lord
Clarendon, the English Foreign Secretary.
The grounds of Mr. Van Buren's refusal
are stated in a letter to the commissioners,
dated at Florence, on the 22d October.—
He says that several years ago he with
drew entirely from all participation in pub
lic affairs, by which hepbtaiued that de
gree of repose and happ i ness suitable to
one of his age, and that nothing could be
more repugnant to his feeling than to
enter again upon the discharge of a public
trust.

Court--Joffe'• Charge.
Court is still in session as we go to press,
having adjourned over from Wednesday
evening until this morning, in consequence
of Thanksgiving day intervening. We
will give a record of the oases disposed of,
next week.
His honor, Judge - Fistz Rlll, tn charging
the Grand Jury, took occasion to refer to
the Act of 1794, in regard to the profana
tion of the Sabbath, which the Supreme
Court has recently decided to cover the
selling of liquor, &c. This decision of the
Supreme Court has directed attention to
the Act in question, and the Courts thro'-
out the State have been "defining their po
sitions" in regard to its enforcement.—
Judge JoNzs, of Berks county, as will be
seen by a paragraph in another column, de
volves the enforcement of the Akt entirely
upon magistrates, insisting that the Courts
have nothing to do with it, except on cer
tiorari, and that a violation of its provis
ions could not even be good ground for a
refusal to renew a license to a person so of
fending. Judge Fisurtt takes a different
and more sensible view ; affirms it to bo
the duty of the Court to see that the men
whom it licensee to sell liquors are worthy
and law-abiding citizens, and announces
his determination to refuse license to any
person who shall be convicted erM,iolating
the Act of 1749 by selling liquor on Sun
day. It is proper to say that in this view
Judge FISHER is fully sustained by hie as
sociates, Judges RUSSELL and blitoiN
In charging the Grand Jury, Judge
Fmnfm, among other things, remarked as
follows :
"The President of this Court, in his charge to
the Grand Jury of the county of York, on the 7th
instate, expressed the views of that Court on a
portion of the Act of the 2'.. 1 / 4 1 of April, 1794.
.-For the preservation of Vice and Immorality.'
the first section of which makes it en offence to
"do or perform any worldly employment. or herd.
new whatsirever on the Lord . s day, commonly
called sunday, tvoiks of necessity and charity on
ly excepted." And it affords him great pleasure
to be enabled to express to you with the approba•
lion of hie brethern on the bench of this county,
the views he then expressed, and thus have a
uniformity of opinion and practice on the subject
throughout this Judicial District.
That the law in question is not a violation of
the Constitution has more than once been declared
by the Supreme Court, and the constitutionality
of the Act has lately been again affirmed, and its
provisions further considered, until at length it
has beer, decided that an Inn or Tavern keeper
has no right to sell liquor on Sunday, under a li
cense to keep a public house of entertainment, to
any person whatever—not even to a traveller
That this adjudication of the highest Court in this
Commonwealth may be known: respected and
obeyed, in letter and spirit, we hove taken this
opportunity to refer to it. although action under
it is no part of the duty of the Grand Jury, nor
its violation one of the matters that you ore bound
to inquire into
It is a prevailing but erroneous idea that the
Court have power to revoke • license already
granted for a violation of the section in question.
There are some causes for which a Court may re
voke a license during the year for which it had
been gr anted, but selling liquor on Sunday is not
one of them. The Ac: fixes the penalty for that
offence at lour dollars, and gives original jurisdic•
lion Over offenders, not to this Court, bat to J ug
lier., of the Peace. Every citizen has the right
to prosecute before thentifor its violation and it is
the fault of those who know that its provisions are
infringed if violations of the law Sr. not pun.
ishe d .
But is the Court altogether powerless in this
matter? If the Court cannot fake oteny a li
cense from the individual who misuses it. would
it be right to rrneto it? Suppose a law to he
enacted authorizing the Governor of this Com
monwealth to lease annually our Railroads and
Canals to any one who would pay a certain
license for their exclusive use, but prohibitirw
the lessee from carrying freight on Sunday un
der a penalty of four dollars. What would be
thought of the Executive who would renew the
lease, at the expiration of the year, to one who
carried freight on that day ? Would not every
right thinking man and every reputable press
in the land condemn such an exercise of power
Would the people receive from that Governor,
ss an excuse for his conduct, the answer --If
the law is infringed, the law has fixed the pen
alty to be paid for it; let it be executed. I
will renew the lease, and if the law be again
and again infringed, again and again let some
one infortu against the offender and exact the
penalty."; Who would say that thus talking
and thus acting was a performance of Guber
natorial duty Who would say that such con
duct was taking care that the laws be faithfully
executed I
This Court is composed of Magistrates whose
duty it is to see that the laws are execu
ted, as far at least as they come within the
sphere of their official duty. The Courts have
no power to enact laws, but only to construe
them, and when the Supreme Court has done
that for them, it is their duty to obey that con
struction. The Supreme Court has said that
the law only allows the licensed Innkeeper to
sell liquors on six days of the week, not seven.
We hold that that individual who abuses his
privilege to sell on six days. by adding to it an
excepted day, shows such a disregard of duty—
such a disposition to make all he can out of the
privilege granted to him by the Court, legally
or illegally—such a disrespect for the law of
the land, and such a contempt for that "higher
law" which commands all mankind to keep
holy the Sabbath day—that it would not be a
judicious exercise of the discretion, which the
Court is invested with by the law relating to
Inns or Taverns, to renew a license to a person
so offending.
In short, the Court consider the grant of a
license, a trust to the individual in confidence
that he will use it within the limitations pre
scribed by law, and the violation of these limi
tations a breach of the trust—such a breach as
would make it not only improper but criminal
again to confide to him the exercise of that
power which he has unfaithfully executed.
This Court, therefore, unanimously announce
it as their determination not to renew a license
to any Innkeeper who violates the Ist Section of
the Act 0f1794 by selling liquor on thauhiy.

A Discovsay.—As the wheat worm
does no; attack rye, it has been shown by
experiment, that if a bolt of Rye is sown

not find the wheat to deposit its egg.—
Mr. 0. Smyley, of Princetown, has sown
two broad cuts of Rye, all round his
wheat-field, for the last four years, and
the wheat has completely escaped from
the insect. Perhaps one cast of Rye
might be sufficient to protect the wheat.

A HUNILIATINO FACT.—k Mica lion
was recently made by two brothers, both
colored, to a Courtin Richmond, Virginia,
for permission to go abroad without re
gisters, as they 'were so far removed frnm
their original blood. as to entitle them to
the privilege asked, in accordance with an
Ant of the Virginia Assembly, which de
clares that persona with less than one
fourth negro blood shall be considered
white persons. After hearing the case,
the Court refused the application. On
which the Richmond Enquirer thus re
marks :
"The law and circumstances tinder
which this application was made, would
free about one-fourth of the slaves of the
Commonwealth, and lead to interminable
difficulties on the subject. One-lentA
negro blood would be little buttes lo•
place a negro upon the footing of a white .
person."
The age being progressive, the Enqui
rer opposes the old law, and calls for •
new one requiring that persons shall have
hut one•tenth negro blood before they abalF

(and observe the reason I) the law as it
now stands, under certain circumstances,
