SUNBURY AND ERIE RAILROAD.
The annual meeting of the Stockholders
of this Company was held in Philadelphia
on Monday, when Hon. Jaws COOPER
WAS unanimously. reelected President.—
The prospects of this work now appear to
to be very Battering, nearly two millions
of, dollars having been subscribed to the
mad, principally by parties in Boston,
since the election of Mr. Cooper as Presi
dent. A subscription of two millions was
necessary to secure the Philadelphia city
subscription of two millions. There is
now a autu'of over six millions subscribed
to this important work, which is more than
half the estimated cost of the road. The
length of the road from Sunbury to Erie
is 269 miles, and the coat is estimated at
$11,012,690. This is the result of a new
survey shortening the dirtanoe by twenty
miles, and with no gradient exceeding fifty
two and eight tenths feet per mile. The
company have resolved to increase their
capital stock from sis to eight millions.—
The road is to be completed early the next
summer, simultaneously with the Catawis
as, and the Williamsport and Elmira roads,
thus connecting Philadelphia with the
Lakes.

CourresidosaL
ICTI.V) Nebraska bill has broken in
upon the natal routine of Congressienni
legishttion, and -has pretty much arrested
everything like practical law-making.
The Senate is engrossed entirely with the
discussion, end in the House members
seem motive and dispreeti to make &Bib
er bills dependent upon the result of the
Nebraska prejeot. What a pity that it
should be in the power of a single dema
gogue th us to throw the entire Union into
an uncalled for and dangerous agitation.—
During the past week Senators Evaarrir, ,
TRUMAN SMITH, sod SAM AMMON have
made strong speeches against the bill, and
Mr. WEILER a characteristic one in its
favor. Truman Smith spoke over four
boors and was unmercifully severe on
Douglass, convulsing the Senate with
laughter, and literally demolishing the
Bill. Gen. Houston opposed the bill
in a masterly speech, denouncing it not
only as a breach of good faith on the Sla
very issue, but as discreditable to the gov
ernment by reason of its trampling upon
all our treaty stipulations with the Indian
tribes located in Nebraska, to whom alone,
under repeated solemn guarantees of the
General Government, that territory be-1
longs. To adopt the bill will be to over
ride all these solemn compacts and turn
nish to the world an other instanceof wrong
and'outrage to the poor Indian.
Petitions and remonstrauces are begin
ning to pour into both Houses in large num
bers from the North and West, strongly
worded tad numerously signed, giving a
premonition of the popular storm of pub
lic indignation which the final passage of ,
the bill cannot fail to evoke. The bill, it
is understood, will pass the Senate ; but as
to its fate in the House opinions vary.—
The strong confidence of its friends seems j
to be giving all under the protracted dia.
mullion, while the hopes of ins enemies
are brightening with the indications of
popular feeling throughout the country.
Douglass' design vs. to rush the bill thro'
both Houses, before members should have
time to deliberate upon its enormities.— i
In this he has been com;iletely foiled. In
the Senate, the other day, he alone voted
nay on a motion to postpue the bill at the
request of Senator Houston, who desired
a day's further preparation before speak-;
ing. The probability is that it will not
reach the House for a week or two yet, as
it is understood that Senators Seward, I
Clayton, Badger, Sumner, Fish, and oth
ers, desire to debate it.
The Washington correspondent of the!
New York Tribune, writing on Monday !
lust, gives us an insight into the the pmt
tion of matters at Washington, in the fol
lowing7paragraph :
oThe Nebraska bill kills everything
here in the shdpn of business het.ire Con
gress stone dead ; and, as things now t
stand, no will they remain 10 the end. If
the bill shall be deleated, something here
after may be done ; hat if it he successful,
then adieu to every expeetat.on of Pacific
Railroads, River and 11 trhur hits, or aliy
don else. All Congress wid then he up
to the war point, and nothing will go,
through. Fierce dissensions will have
arisen between the member... and Wash- '
ington will howl again. The excitement
is already intense, and deepening every
hour. Southern men ate no less denun
ciatory of the movement in pr!tate eh-cies'
than are those of the North. They de. I
clare the South did not ask for, would nut
have proposed, and does not want, the
abrogation of the Missouri Compromise;
but, as Northern men, backed and urged
no by a Northern President, have intro
duced and recommended the measure ,
they are not a going to refuse the boon. --r
It is in view of the impendingstorin, and
the outrageous swindle. of the transaction,
that they condemn its authors. Indeed, the
tone of feeling is such as to encourage the
belief that the whole crew of conspirators
will be ultimately crushed by the scorn
and indignation of both North and South,
and perish in the storm of ther own rais
ing. It is a result richly due to such
traitorous conduct as' - theirs ; and if so
righteous a retribution should fall upon
their heads, it would be a proper subject
for national thanksgiving. • •
The hill will hardly get out of the Senate
till March, and in the House the delay
will be endless. Of the majority now m
ourned to exist in that body in 44, favor,
there are enough that hate it, who will
give its opponents all the latitude in their
opposition that is required.
"Indeed, the prospect is that the con
sideration of the bill will absorb ball or
iwo•lhirds.o( the session. Once in the
House, it will be whirled as in a mael.
strain, and if it he ultimately saved from
the engulfing abyss of defeat, it will only
be brought to land after long and weary
efforts, amid •toeua and tempest, and in
the thick darkness dr midnight rendered
, lurid by the fierce opposdion it will en
counter."

becometotorious for its servile devotion
to the Slave Power. Of all "dough-faces"
the moat plastic and contemptible are our
leaders and expounders of modern Penn

from them. It is true there are thousands
of honest minded Democrats throughout
Pennsylvania who may be utterly opposed
to this servile trailing of the banner of
Freedom in the wake of Slavery Propa
gandism ; but they do not often have the
privilege of giving tone to the official nets
of the party. Their honest convictions
are over-slaughed and lost sight of in
the intriguing and ntameuvering of cor
rupt leaders. The only marvel with us
has long been, that men of this stamp can
find it consonant with their feelings and con
victions of duty to remain in fellowship
with a party whose publid acts they must
heartily despise. If fir. Kunkle's resolu

A bill is under consideration changing
somewhat the punishment for murder.—
The first section provides that the jury, in
rendering a verdict of guilty of murder in
the first degree may recommend the cul
prit to the mercy of the Court, and every
person so convicted, whom the jury shall
recommend to mercy, shall be .en:enced to
solitary confinement for life. Tue second
section provides that no person so sen
tenced to imprisonment for life shall be
rcloned except by a "tote of two-thirda of
both Houses of the Legislature. The third
section provides that "on convielion of
any person of any crime thus punishable,
he sht.'t ire thereupon deemed, with re.
spect to a!' contracts to the bonds of mat
rimony, to all rights of property, and to
all civil rights, and relations of what na
ture soever, dead in all respects, as if his
actual decease bad taken place at the time
of suoh convict ion."
The bill to incorporate the Littlestown
Rvilroad Company has passed the House.
The Liquor Law bill has been before
the Senate and considerably amended.—
What its present shape is, would be hard
to tell. The most important amendment
was one striking out the section authori
sing a search of suspected houses, which
was adopted by a vote of 16 to 15. It
contains a provibion fora popular vote.
The bill to charter the Evergreen Ceme

signature of the governor to become a

SALE OF THE PUBLIC WORKS.
—There are several bills before the Legis
lature for the sale of the Public Works of
the Commonwealth, but such is the tenac
ity with which Locofocoism holds on to
the dices they afford, that it is not at all
likely either will pass unless the peole unite
in a general movement in favor of the mea
ours. It appears by the report of the Au
ditor General, that the whole receipts from
these works during the last fiscal year,
were $1,898,261 14, while the expenses
reached *2.780,850 79—showing a foss
to the State in a single year of *887,589
65 ! It appears from the same report, ac
cording to the Pottstown Ledger, that if
the State were to sell her improvements
for $15,000,000, thus reducing the debt
to 27.000,000, the current revenues 'of
the State from other sources than the pub
lic Works would, during the past year,
have paid all the current expenses of gov
ernment, 6 per cent, interest upon 27,009,-
000, and have lei% in round numbers 1,-
000,000 dollars in the Treasury as a sink
ing fund, What,da the Tax payers think
of that f la . it not; high time that the
State robber, who ire now eating out the

would luptantly effect.—Reading Journal.

FROM BARRUBFRO.
HARRISBURG, Frs. 29, :54
Dr.As finta :
Little of importance now engages the
attention of the Legislature. The bill re
quiring the Supreme Judges to revise the
charge of Judge M'Olure Co the Jury in
the case of David Jewel, now under sen
tence of death fur the murder of Mitchell
at Pittsburg, was defeated in the house by
one vote. The prisoner, however, has
been respited by the Governor, I thin k, in
definitely. This is an extremely hard
case. The charge of the Judgo, it is al
leged, is extremely harsh and vindictive
—that, in consequence thereof, the jury
did not act in fairness and impartiality—
that the power of the Courts being exhaus
ted, it is the province as well as the Con
stitutional duty of the Legislature to in
terpose and shield the victim. On the
other hand, it is averred that the laws are
conclusive and sole, and that no power ex
ists either in the Legislature or elsewhere,';
to take further cognizance of the matter.
But there must be power sornewhere—
and where can it be it be, if not in the Le- I
gislature. :
The "Maine Liquor Law" bill has been
indefinitely postponed. What its fate
may be ne no one can tell. Its friends
are laboring zealously to chop and square
it so as to suit all. I had the extreme
pleasure, the other day, in company with
other gentlemen, of visiting and examin- I
ing the State Lunatic Asylum. This in.
seitution is. certainly creditable to Penn-
sylvania. It is justly her pride and boast.
Situated on a high and commanding emi.'
nenco, about two miles North West of the
Capitol, it overlooks some ;catckes of
beautiful scenery. The building is cepa- '
cious, and, to some extent, convenient in
its internal arrangement, and well adapt.

reason has been rtstored through her in
strumentality. The State Lunatic Asy-
Itinin of Pennsylvania is hers. She claims
it as a chill of her own, and well i, it fol. '
filling the purposes of its birth. We '
were guided through the building by the
gentlemanly assistant physician, Dr. De
Witt, and the walk afforded ample oppor- '
tunity to witness thejnany degries or pha
ses of insanity within its walls, from the I
dull, stupid, vacant stare of confirmed idi-1
ocy, to the bright, glaring, piercing glance
of eyes moving in unison with a fevered!
brain. I shudder yet when I think of the'
mass of imbecility :aid wretehedne , s con- i
fined within the walls of that house.—
There
can be heard the groans of despair 7
that misery extorts—the light, senseless!
el:uttering:4 of merry, light-hearted, happy
imbeciles, anti the loud, piercing shrieks 1
of the raving maniac. There are thoae!

adem of intellect. Charles Fenno Hotf.l

greater poet and prose-writer. :k I, , Togom- i
4ery, too, once a greet luminary of the law,
and many otlicrs also, mere wrecks of their
former selves, lost, forever lost—the man
departed, the animal left—teaching us
that we are but shadows, and that they are
but shadows we pursue.
The Littlestown Railroad Charter pass
' cd the house finally on Saturday last, and,
is now in the Senate. It will become u'
law in a few days. Harrisburg has now a i
i pretty fair sprinkling of members of the i
.•third" house—a elever set of fellows,'
truly, but always with a view to a special
object.
Consolidation is becoming fashionable.
Philadelphia led off in the dance—Harris
, burg is about to follow. She wishes to-1
become a City. She will take in "Hard
I Scrabble," and other notable suburb', and
lincorporate them in one grand municipal
body. These, however, ere but detached
I parts of the great drama of this age of
:paste and pretence. Some chaps away
. down in Lancaster county, about the 'Buck'
tavern, where they are cut off from the
"rest of mankind," are striving to have a
State road laid put from McCall's Ferry to
Gettysburg. Cool, exceedingly. They
might, at least, have consulted with us on
the subject. But they shall hear from us
—they shall. The candle resolution was
called up yesterday, for the third time., and
I passed by a decided vote in its favor. A'
small affair—to legislate for three hours I
about giving each member four pounds of
candles. The opinion seems to prevail
here that the amendment of your borough
charter will not be grunted by the Legis
lature. The Courts have authority, and
they seem to think no other power should
interpose. Evergreen Cemetery Associa
tion will soon be incorporated, and those
interested should strive to so accomplish
the enterprise that it may be a pride and
an ornament to your borough. More a-

Nebrsteka Territory.
sOrWe hardly think the free people of
the North realize the importance of the
Nebraska bill, now before Congress, and
the evils which its passage will entail up
on the future destinies of the country, or
they would at once unite in a strong and
determined remonstrance. As was very
properly remarked by Mr. Everett in his
speech before the Senate the other day,
"the principles involved in the bill are
great and momentous." It lays the fours.
dation of two independent States, hereafter
to be admitted into the Union—one free,
the other slave, and both North of the
Missouri Compromise -line. •It further
proposes to repeal that Compromise alio•
gather, in which event, the door will be
-open hereafter for as many new Slave
States as the South, with the aid of North-
dough-faces, can find votes to carry. Are
the people :of the North prr,pared to en
dorse this movement ? Are they willing
that this ;axed question of Slavery, which
has threatened the peace and stability of
the Vnion times without number, and
which all , thought, had been definitely set
tled by the ordinanco of 1787, and the
Compromises of 1820, and 1850, shall be
again thrown open, in order to further tho
Presidential aspirations of every sebum
tag demagogue. Pot. one .wo-say no. and
we think the people will say no, with one
voies,if time is given them toles* the in-
iniquities of tide bill, and express their
sentiments upon it. phignias It as the
friends at thili project may, the repeal of
the Missouri Compronsose is a virtual re.
peal of all compacts, so far as Slavery is
concerned, and-who can estimate the fear-
ful results that must follow such a state of i
affairs. The Union, wbioh the Slavery
propagandists have been 'saving' for the I
Last few years, will not be worth a straw if
the measure they now have in hand is suc
cessful.'
The following short history of Nebras
ka will serve to give our readers an idea
of the extent of the territory, and the ;
immense inroads which will be made up-
on the cause of freedom by the passage
of the bill. We copy it from oue of our
exchanges.
The immense territory of Nebraska—
the Indian name for the great river run.
mug through it under the French name of
La Platte—has the State of lowa On the
Missouri on its Eastern limit. and on its
Western the Rocky Mountain Ridge,
which separates it from Utah. On Ha
Nor,hern limit is what is known an the
Nnrth•Westcrn territory, and a portion of
Minnesota—and its southern boundary is
the same parnilul of billtlltiO as that of
Missouri, 30 degrees, 30 minutes North.
The territory is at tie eastern extremity,
about 350 miles from North to Small—at
the ‘lestern end, about 200 miles, and
having an average width of about 240
miles.
It is estimated that there are about 12.-
000 Indians in the country. They are
the Cherokees, (in part) the Osages, the'
Cherokee Reservation, %Vyanilottes. Pat•
towato mice, Ottowas and eitippe was, Pe
orins and Kaskaskias. Wears and Polkas
haws, Shawnees, as, DC11441111441.
Kickapoes, 'owns, Sack and Foxes, 11•tlf
B reed , °toes and Missouri:is.
At Port Leavensworth, on the Western ;
side of the Missouri river, there is a nes- r
ervation of nine square miles belonging to ;
the United Statetif.iiivernment. Here is
centered the entire white poptilation of the
territory, which varies according to the
season of the year, and the demands of
the army. It v prises, officers, soldiers,
civilians, in the set vice of the government,
tiler hanies, 'armours, teamsters. 4.c. Tits
whole pqmiatmn varies from lour to
twelve hundred persons, and ordonarO•
the number does not exceed six hundred.
About seventy votes were polled las , year
for a delegate to C.mgress. None of these
cotes came from Fort I,en ,, ettoorilt, and
most of the white residents Elul not vote at
all.

A Singular Case.
Nothing has yet transpired to throw
any light upon the cause of the strange
disappearance of Mr. Lite relive ; and Ihi

this tinforitot.ite affair, the hillowiiig singu
lar circtonstaiten ix rel 'Led from a highly
responsible source. The veracity of t h e
gentleman from wl we received t h e
story is unquestionable, and all the peisittis
connected it•tlh the matter are of the high
est reepectal‘iliiy. The wile 01 one
r. Lawrence ' s most Intonate iriends who
had for a number of years been on terms
of the closest friendship w ' Rh that unlui in
nate gentleman, le at IlltFlllVrill
and her brother is in the habit of occasiiinly
placing her in a mesmeric state. Being at
the house of an acquaintance in Latayette,
on last Saturday toglii, ',bow tell o'clock.
(beJuce any person bad the least liitimatiou
that any misfortune ttad befallen Mr. La w•
renee,) the company requested the brother
to mesmerize his sister, as many of them
were anxious to see the effects of mesiner-
18111.
The ladv was placed in a niesrueLic
sleep ; and, on the request of several per.
suns present that lie would propinind to
her a few questions. lie asked her, What
do you see, stater 1" rilie iminelliatel)
replied : •'l see three men engaged in a
tight on the levee." “Dit you know any
of them 1" Yes, one lit them is Mr.
Lawrence : the others I don't know. One
a very tall min, the other about meth- ,
um viz° ; and these two men are striking
Mr. Lawrence. Why don't he shoot
them 1 There, now, they have knocked
Mr. Lawrence down. Good heavens !I
they killed ham." "What are they doing
now r "The tall man is taking his
watch, and the other is teeling tl, his pock
ets. Ile is taking some bank hills out of
Mr. Lawrence's pocket ; now he is taking
some gold. They are talking together
now ; and now they pick Mr Lawrence up
and are carrying him towards the river.—
Will . nobouly save him. There they have
thrown him in. Pour Mr. Lawrence is
gone !"
She stopped talking for a minute or so.
when she was again asked, "What do
you now see 1" tihe replied, "I see a
steamship l) Mg at the wharf. It is about
to leave. There is a great number of
passengers on hoard ; and among the pas
sengers I see the two men who killed Mr.
Lawrence and threw him into the river.
The tall one has his watch ; they are
both better dressed than they were before."
Here the company having become satisfi
ed with the experiment, the brother woke
Isis sister ; and when she was informed
of what she had auitl• she hiugheil inered
uously, remarking that she recollected
nothing of what had taken plaint. The
sister of Mr. Lawrence was present, and
the company wee pretty tree in passing
' their jokes about the matter ; and all were
vociferous in their denunciations of mes
merism as a humbug.
Little did they think that the very
scene this piling lady had described was
actually at that moment perhaps being 'mi
med, and Mr. Lawrence wes then giti
more., It is also a remarkable fact that
two steamships
...ailed for California from
the wharf on Sunday morning. Mr. Lilur
retire was not seen alter leaving his (dee,
with five or six hundred' dollars in. his
pocket, at a late hour on Saturday night.
No anxiety was manifested by his friends
until Monday morning. when, beginning
to be alarmed, they instituted search for
him. His hat and • some other articles,
with blood upon them, were found on the
levee, in the Fourth district. Ali then re
membered the mot) , of the mesmeric sub.
ject ; and mesmerism had more than one
convert in that company. Was Dowse'
romance of the "Pentium Brothers" all 'a
fiction.
