Mr: Pollock at Rome.
Irr The editor - eta.° Mihon Democrat,
aware of Mr. Poimocx's well
l eserved
popularity et home, is very fearful that he
will receive a too, liberal support trom the
Democrats of Northumberland county.—
litythereforo calls upon the faithful to
stand firm, and not permit their feelings
of personal friendship for Mr. POLLOCK,
to lead them from the Democratic fold.—
Although the Democrat editor hoists of
!the "high character" of our eanfliaata for
purity, honesty and integrity; Go demi
not wish the Democracy to vote for him.
We subjoin the editor's remarks; and our
readers can judge for themselves of the
chante.ter of the Whig nominee torOty
erndr, as it appears in a Democratiyfa
per in his own oounty. If MY:I S- ollook
is not elected by the people, there is no
use in nominating geod and honest men
for office
• "Tut:Contain ELFRTION-Wc have,
thus far, refrained from saying anything
more than to express our decided , appro
val of the nomination made by the late
democratic convention. The time,. how
ever, has arrived- when it becomes neces
sary to call the attention of the party in
this particular locality, to' the importance
of concentrated action. This being the
home of the highly respectable candidate
of the Whig party, it becomes the more
important that we should call the attention
of the democracy to the necessity of main
taining the principles of the party. Can
dor compels us to say, that Judge Pox,-
LOCK has great personal popidanty, and
that his private character is without re
proach ; but, all this forms no reason why
he should be elected by the did of demo
cratic voters, whose principlea are at vari
ance with his. * • • * • *
It most he recollected that Judge Pollock
is not now the local candidate of his neig . h.
bora, for a seat in the Legislature or in
the Congress of the United States, where
he would be but their representative in lo
cal matters, but his party aspires, Ihrough
Ms personal popularity. to the control of
the affairs If Democratic Pennsylvania !
This is the main object of the Whig party,
and let Mr. Pollock be elected, and we may
bout of the
,high character of our neigh
bor *re has been elerated to theExectutve
Chair, but at the same time, wo will be
compelled to deplore the destruction of
our party. and she sacrifice of our princi
ples --
In the above we have endeavored to
place the coming election fairly before the
d'Anocraey of this democratic county,
witheut any desire to do injustice to Judge
Pollock, a gentleman for whom we have
every kind feeling. but duty to our party,
and a sincere wish to see ha principles con
tinue to triumph throughout the State,
leaves us no other course.'
',Wilmot vs: Nebraska.
pzriVe learn from the Bedford Argos,
theta meeting_of the Democracy of-Brad
ford county, opposed to the Nebraska Bill,
was held at Towanda!, on Tuesday week,
at. which Col. Gordon F. Mason, fornier
State. Senator, presided, and which was
addressed by Hon.. David Wilmotorlio is
said not to have neglected in his speech
to,rap theltartekleS,Of Zha deduk;g gentle.
peulOesWite ticket if Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania.
When Judge Wilmot had _ennobled his
speech, he offered a paper--in substance
an address, or•declanition of principles, to
the democracy of the State—which was
passed
,by the meeting unanimously. In
his speech and paper'both, the Judge bOld%
ly declared. the Nebraska question to be
an iasue,, and, one that would overthro*
the democracy in every free State of the
Union, that attempted to back its passage
as a 'party question. ' The addreas called
upon otrr State Representatives to pies im.
mediately the anti•Nebniska &solutions
which hate for some time been pending
before that body ; and incase of its refusal
to pass them, then the Democracy of - the
State are ,ealled upon to meet inconven
tion, to take such action thereon as the ex
igency of the case may require.
The "Kuow Wothlngo.39
The new and mysterious organization,
known as the "Know, Nothings," seems
4)l* extending, very rapidly. Almost ev
ery exchange notices their influence in
some local election'. At Cumberland, Md:,
last week, on closing the polls, certain can ,
didatea selected from the two regular tick
ets were' found to be elected by • large ma
jorities over other candidates on the same
tickets. A "Know Nothing" society had
been at work without any persqwbeing ft
ware of it !
At Bridgeport, Connecticut, there was
recently' a hotly contested election, of a
State Representative to supply a'vacancy. l
Philo P. Barnum, and alter. Mr. Siniat
were the • candidates. ' When the polls
were cotinted, great was the astonishment
at discrivering that Thoinas
whose namo had never boenmentioned for .
the office publicly, had been eleotod by
a majority of 856! Where the tickets
came from and who voted them remains
a complete mystery.
THE DEMOCRATIC PA,Wry.—There is
no disguising the, fact that the Democratic
party, powerful and triumphant as it was,
twelve months ago, is now supine and in
different, and disgustful. There is no dis
guising the fact that the elements of op- .
positionitave been growing everyday.
A uniierstil distrust
,has groan up a
mong the people, even among. the truest
and sternest demo.rats, who believe dial
they have been duped, defrauded,' and
cheated,and that the high places of the'pv
erument are surrounded by mean, low:
and contemptible men, that keep off, from
higher sources every, expression of hones
ty and disinterestedness, and do but
"crook the , pregnant hinges of the.knee
that thrift may follow fawning. 7

Tn the Senate, in Moinlay, Gen. Cass
announced hie intenion of speaking on
Monday next, on the subject of religious
toleration to A-modal citizens abroad.
In the House, of lepresentatives, Mr.
Richardson, of Iltinoi, carried out his pre
iously announced intatiea of moving to
lay aside all bills, on the calender, to-ena
hie the house to'reaci and eat on' hoNe
braska-Kansas bill ti the Senate. Tho
motion was entirely siceessful, some fifteen
bills having been lail aside by a decided
vote, and the Nebnu4a bill taken up, when
Mr. Richardson ,Hoed a substitute for it,
being the same bill l with the exception of
the Clayton amendaent, (which restrict
ed the right 'of , votbg in the territory to
the citizens of the thited States.)
The administratiat has been laboring,
industriously to'get its followers into the
traces en this question, and it is said'with
considerable alpacas. Some eight or ten
of a majority are clamed for the bill by
the letter-writers ; hat when the final vote
comes a portion of hose relied upon, will
probably be found witting.
The vote on goitg into Committee on
the Nebraska bill wta f. .—yeas 109, nays 88.
It is said that some of the members who
voted to take up the bill, will vote against
it when it comes w foi passage, , and it
may yet be defeated. The vote, however,
is sufficiently`oniintuts to put the friends
of Freedom on thoir guard. Executive
influence and party dragooning can effect I
much, and this mast infamous 441 the
projects - of Slavery Propagandism may bo
carried through Congress, despite the ar
ray of adverse poplar feeling which its
agitation has developed. We have looked
upon the bill as to utterly fraudulent in
its professions, ace so meanly wicked in
its leading provisints, as to render its fi
nal pottage next to impossible. We must
confess to serious misgivings, after Mon
day's doings in the House. If this Ne
braska Bill passes the Congross_,ef the
,United States, and the people of this Re
public submit to it, we shall cease to be
surprised at any liislation which partizan
audacity or selfmh demagoguism may per
petuate.
The New Fork Tribune, in view of the
threatening aspect of affairs in Congress,
suggests a Mass Sleeting of the observers
of plighted :fitith and the defenders of
Freedom, to be held at Washington; for
the purpose of affording aid and comfort
to the beleaguered forms of liberty, and
to act as emergencies may require. If it .
be the intention of the North to subunit
to the perfect and entire conversion of this
Govern:nout into a stupendous engine for
the support and indelinite extension of Af
rican Slavery, such a meeting could put
that determination in the form of a resolve
to that effect. ; ; If, ou the contrary, the

important bills were disposed of, including
the General Appropriation bill, which had
been referred to a conference committee.

On Tuesday, Mr. hl'Oesurc, Speaker of
the Senate, tendered his , ' resignation, in a
brief address, in order to afford the oppor
tunity. for a new election, and left the
chair.
A motion was made to go into a new

first ballot, Byron IL Hamlin, (Dem.) of

The news from Mexico is of a highly
interesting nature. Santa Anna has
blockaded the port of Acapulco, and the
Government troops and those of the revo.
lutionary party are busily engaged in fight•
ing.
The following report from 'the Purser
of the steamship John L. Stephens, will
be found highly interesting :
On the 22d April, arrived oft' the harbor
of Acapulco ; saw two vessels, showing
what appeared to be French colors. lay.
ing off the main entrance, each of which
fired a gun as the Stephens approached
through the north channel, and soon atter,
wanly fired a shot which fell short of us.
The engine was immediately stopped, and
the helm put to starboard.- The ship
fore•reaching came in full view of the;
foot. which appeared to be crowded with
men.
The steamer then losing her steerage
way, and drifting, towards the rocks on
the north shore of the bay, the engine was
started ahead to bring her round head to
wind and time, when the ship and schoon
er came up under our lee in point blank
range, fired two shots close over us. The
engine was again stopped. a boat, lowered,
and the first lofficer sent to inquire the
cause of their firing into us.
He was not allowed to board the ship,
but was met by an officer in this ship's
boat, who informed him that the port was
blockaded, and that we must immediately
leave the harbor, or he would sink us if he
could.
Captain' Pearson himself then "b sled
the , ship, and was immediately informed
by the commander that his orders were
imperative from Santa' Anna,,to allow no
vessel to pass, and if .we attempted it,
he would fire , into us. Having sufficient
coal to reach San Juan, the ship was put
°tater course. ,'
During the.detention of the Stephens at
Acapulco,shots were frequently exchang
ettbetween the two vessels and the fort,
and without effect on either side. Santa
Anna, with an army. , variously estimated
at from three to five thousand men, was
encamped in the neighborhood, and it was
expected he would make au attack on the
town during the night.

The Exhibition wee exce e dingly inter

all the spectators. The pupils deserve

evening we paid particular attention, to
several familiar airs, and we can say with
truth, that harmony prevailed throughout
each piece and notwithstanding a unints-r
of rests, the time was not hurried or lost
in a single instance. Parents and those
who have children under their care could
not possiblf avail themselves of a inure
auspicious opportunity of having them in

THE !BON .ThITEREST.—Tho prop.
osition to take off the duty ou railroad

total receipts into the treasury were $35.-
093, while the public expenditures for the
same period amounted to $32,072. leaving
a cash surplus 010,021. The present
abilities of the government amount to 813,-
025, which, when the assets are deduc
ted, leaves a balance ageism the State of
$8,002. It is believed that dewing the
present - year, the receipts will be mgt.
cient, nut only for the discharge of the or
dinary expenses, but ills°. for the liquida
tion of the present liabilities and the com
pletion of various important public int
