For some mouths pa:st our paper has nec

Whieli we aim to servo the reader. 'The
ocea.Aion for that lta.4 paned, awl we hope
from this on to devote more attention to
the literary and news department of the
paper. • We Shall aim to Make the /quit"
in every respect worthy of the liberal and
increasing' patronage it sustains from the
good people of the countyz—steering clear
of the personalities that:unfortunately char

and maintaining, as heretofore, a firm and

claim our atte• thin. As conductors of
public press reaching the mind of a large
portion of the ceinmunity, and moulding
to a greater or lists' degree its judgment
and action, we shall in no' contingency'
shrink •from the responsibility devolving
uprin us, or tail to meet that responsibility
fully and promptly in so far us the path of
duty may be made
,plain tons. No con
sideration of self interest or fear of pope
lar disappiobation shall induce us to give
our assent to wrong, "or deter ns from a
bold and fearless denunciatiCin of what we
beileve to be deserving of our reprobation.
To this line of duty we stand committed
by, onr . paNtAiterial career, And need make
to pledges as to the future.
And now, as we acknowledge our obliga
tions to the kind . friends who hivi , 6 so gen
erously stood by us iu the'past, may we
not solicit a continuance of their friendly
offices for the future. We have a list of
subst,Tibers embracing an array of intelli

But there . - aro stillit large number of per

our present subscribers with their friends
and neighbors would materially increase
our.eironlation. The general advance in
the coat of material and products of all
kinds kas made` the_ publishing business
more expensive than it was a few years a
go, and the consequence is that a number
of editors have• been compelled to raise the
price of subacription and adveitising. No
do not propose tO do so at present, asking
from our friends simply that they be prompt
in meeting their subscriptions 'as they be

in our behalf io their friends and neigh

Destructive Fire.
ItCr On Friday eveuing last, between 7
and 8 o'clock, our people were startled with
the cry of "Fire," arising from the burn
ing of Mr. Gaottaz C. STHICK.BOUSER'S
new barn on "York street.- The barn be
ing frame and, filled with hay, grain and
other combustible material, the firespread
rapidly, extending to the stables of Mrs.
Scut= and Mrs. EfrarrEß on the east,
and of Mr. A. B. 'Kuterz on the west, all
of which, with the contents, were °orlon
med in a short time. A wood.shed, be
longing to Mr. JACOB TItOXELL, also took
fire, and was partially consumed ; but the
devouring element was there stayed. It
is riot known how the fire originated. Mr.
EDEN Noma loses some three or four
tons of hay, and other, pioperty, by the
burning of Mrs. Fleriter's stable; but the
heaviest loss fella upon Mr. Strickhouser,
whose barn Nab but recently put up, and
was filled with the produce of his sum
mer's labor. Ile 'also lost two horses, a
calf, horse-gears, &c., probably amounting
in the aggregate to $BOO or $lOOO. Mr.
ANDREW Scuicx had anew carriage, just
finished, worth about $175, in Mr. Strick
.
houser's barn, which was also destroyed.
None of the property was insured except
that of Mr. Troxell, who has a policy in
the Perry County Company.
Mr. strickhouser had made application
to the Adams County Company for an in
surance on his barn, only two weeks prqvi- .
ous, and had received the 'assent of the
Company, but, neglected to complete , the
insurance ! The loss falls heavily on. Mr.
Strickhouser, zs also on Mr. Schick, and
we are gratified to learn that steps are be
ing taken to relieve the sufferers, in part,
from their lows.
Apn , t I,leglect Insturance.
The recent Ores in , Abe borough and
the county, in which total losses have keen
sustained by want of promptness in pro
curing Policies of Insurance, should servo
as a warning to all pilperty holders
. whe
arc uninsured„ or whose policies have ex
pired. Insurances can now be effected ut
so hiwti rate in our Mutual Companies,
the t man can be' excusable for a
single day without an insurance upon all
his property, be it large , or small. Appli.

The Reran In the Connt7•
• We have the mortification to4;is:y to re
cord a result of the election' in our county,
altogether unfamiliar to our columns. Le
cofocoism, by the aid of the Foreign and
Catholics vote, has achieved a partial tri
umph in Adams County. For details we
refer to the official returns in another ool
ntun. They toll the whale stery—exam
ine them well. Wo refrain from comment
upon them at present. Hereafter. when
the excitement of the present moment
shall have passed from oft the minds of oar
readers, we may have some suggestions to
address to the "sober second thoughts" of
the voters Of the 'county. One thing is
evident upon the face of the returns. The
efforts of tho Locefoeo leaders to excite
the prejudices of . Catholic voters and a
dopted citizens against tho Whig' party,
haire been entirely successful, add that vote,
with but a few honorable exceptions, has
been thrown dead against the Whig tick
et. We must.. confess our • surprise and
mortification at this result—surprise that
intelligent voters should not have been
able to see through tho flimsy hypocrisy of
the demagogues who, to secure their votes,
wore bitterly denouncing Know-Nothing
iam, and at the saute time oadially uniting •
with the Know-Nothing' organization in
sup Port of
.acknowledged Snow 7 Nothing
candidateb—mortification that these hypo
critical profession should be so eagerly
heeded, and a deaf ear' turned to all the
warnings anffirotestations of old political
associates. But more of this hereafter.
The voting for the_different candidates
presents some singular results. Poi LOOK I B
Majority in the county is but 84. The
polling of the Catholic and Foreign, vote
against him, would have loft him 'in a mi
nority of about 600, had not some 300
Democrats, disgusted by the anti-Ameri
can policy of their leaders, come nobly to
the rescue.
Morr, who ran on both the Locofocoand
Know-Nothing tickets, has an- unprece
ridded majority in the county—so with
Hamm 11,x and WALTER.
Mr. M'CLEAr goes to Harrisburg, by a
division of tho Anti-Nebraska vote between
NEELY and WILSON. It having become
apparent early in the Camp that Mr.
Neely could , not be elected, and that the
contest lay between Wilson and M'Clean,
the great mass of the Whig voters went
over to Wilson, who also received the votes
of some 300 or 400 anti-Nebraska Demo
orate. Mr. APClean's majority is 101.
For Prothonotary,' Mr. PICKING has
301 majority; THOMAS for..sheriff 254;
WALTEtt for Register 1718; BALDWIN
for Clerk 54; Mitus for Commissioner
6; HORNER for Director of the Poor 74;
WRIGHT for Auditor 14; and HENDRIX
for Coroner 2532. The majority against
Prohibition is ONLY 13481
It is generally understood that the
"Know-Nothinge" voted, with some ex
ceptions, for Pollock; Mott, Baird; Robi
son, Wilson, Picking, Walter, Minnigh,
Baldwin, Myers, Horner, (Director)
Wright and Hendrix.
Der We point with pride to the Prohi
bition Anu Gettysburg-800 for Prohi
bifida, and 70 against—just 70 too many,
but we are satisfied. It was gratifying to
observe the manly stand our young men,
Whigs and Democrats; took on the morn•
ing of ihe -election, battling openly and
earnestly for the suppression of the rum
traffic. The vote for Prohibition would
have been larger, but for the fact that a
largo proportion of the Democratit3 tickets
in the borough wore circulated with. anti-
Prohibition ballots attach'ed - to them, a
number of which were unintentionally vot
ed. The same remark will hold good as to
the County.
We have but few returns of the vote for
Prohibition in the State. Allegheny coun
ty gives 4,000 majority for Prohibition,
and•Philadelphiu about 5,000.
The Result In the State.
'l3y the returns which we give elsewhere
it will be seen that Locofocoistu has been
routed in Pennsylvania, despite its dis
graceful cooing and wooing with Catholic
and Foreign voters. We do not claim this
result as a distinctive. Whig triumph. In
every part of-the State, as in our own
county, the Loeofoco leaders, Conscious Of
the damning infamy of the Nebraska twin
did, and its deadly influence upon their par
ty prospects, deliberately 'went to work to
*gnoro all legitimate political issues, and
sought to save their sinking craft, by bold
ly and shamelesslysbidding for the Catho
lic and Foreign vote. In doing so, how
ever, they have aroused a storm of indig
nant American sentiment in their owe
ranks, which hail scattered Locofocoism to
the winds. So bo it. The Locefoco load
ers and their new allies have in augurated
a new era into American. politic:4.-8n era
which we have long anticipated, but which
the Whigs,aa a partYh . ave earnestly and
steadily. labored to avoid. For ibis result
and consequenceey be they what .they
may, the Whig party,at least, cannot be
bold responsible. • The issue has been
forced upon us—in accepting it we shall
know how to do our duty.
05'We learn from the Baltimore San
that Mr. Berger, of that city; has just e
rected in tho. Catholic pkt urch at Littleton',
a handsome organ, 18 feet .high,..7 feet
deep, 8 feet wide, 10 full stops,. with a pe
dal, one row of keys, and an oak case of
Grecian architectUre: ° Thin organ Cis a
- new 'step, known in Eurepo as the Vox

of American steamships, plying between
hLiverpool and 'New York, came into collis
ion with an iron steam propeller on the
17th ult., having left Liverpool on the,
20th. ~: T he fog was very dense, and the,
propeller was not seen a minute before the
collision. An awful gash was made at
the bows, through which the sea poured
in, and in an hour or two the noble vessel
was sinking. Intense excitement and
confusion ensued among the , passengers, i
who crowded the boats to excess and sunk
several of them. The Captain and his son
clung-to the vessel and went down- with I
her. There were 431 souls on board, but
57 of which are known to bo saved. These
were picked up in the boats. Among the
lost are the wife, daughter and son of Mr.
Collins, one of the proprietors of tho steam
,er. Prof. Reed, of Philadelphia, is said
to have been on board, and albo the wife,
brother and sister of Wm. B. Reed, At-
torney General of this State--all missing.
It is hoped that some of tho missing pas
sengers may have boon picked up by oth
er vessels. The propeller with its entire
crew suuk . immediately, without even its
name being discovered. It is supposed,
however, to hiVe been the Cleopatra, which
left Quebec on the 24th, with the. 71st Re
giment of Highlanders on board.

Kr The Russian war has at last assum
ed a phase of profound interest. An alli
ed army, 58,000 strong, has landed in the
Crimea, unobstructed, and is marching on
Sevastopol; while 14,000 men are on the
way from Varna to swell the invading
force to above 70,000. Precisely how
strong the Russians are in the Province,
we have no means of knowing, but it may
well be doubted whether in a pitched bat
tle they can cope with the allies; and as
for a siege, the result at Bomersund does
not lead us to expect anything brilliant
?tom the Russians in the way of defending
fortifications, nor anything very solid in
the fortifications themselves. Nor is our
confidence increased by the fact that the
supreme command in the Crimea is in the
hands of the arrogant and Shallow Men
ohikoff, who has never yet distinguished
himself as a soldier. However, wo shall
see; after having been surprised by the
bravery and skill of the Turks, the world
may now receive a similar surprise from
the Russians. At any rate the question
must be rapidly decided; the allies must
promptly. capture Sevastopol or, take to
their ships again and flee, still more dis
gracefully than Napier is about to do from
the Bailie.

we have the proud gratification

The returns o! the Eleations

Baltimore City.
Ory`The election for Mayor- and City
Couticil took place on Wednesday. The
Whigs had no ticket—the contest- being
between the regular Locofoco ticket and
the Know Nothings. Wind Thomas
VMS the candidatei . of the former, and Sam
uel. finks the eantlidate.of she latter—both
Democrats. The contest was excited, au d
the American triumph complete. Their
candidate for Mayor has 2,741 majority
being a gain of 6,425 over the lost Mayor's
election:- The Know Nothings have also
elected a decided majority in both branch
es of the City Councils.
CALIFORNIA.—The State election
in California took place on the 6th in
stant. Except a most overwhehuing Know
Nothing tornado in San Francisco, sweep
ing all old parties like chaff before the
wind, the result of the election in Califor
nia seems to be a little misty. Whigs and
Democrats claim a victory, and the returns
are not yet satisfactory as to the actual re
sult. The Democracy were split up into
Broderick and Anti-Broderick Democra ts.
It is thought the present Democratic mete
hers of Congress aro beaten by Denver
and llerbert, anti-Broderick Democrats.—
The State Legislature will be Democratic,
but so discordant in material. that the
Democratic majority will not be able to
pull
,together. In San Francisco, the
Know Nothings put up a ticket 'on the
morning of the election, and swept the
city, electing their entire ticket over both
the regular Whig and Democratic nomi
nees, electing some of their candidates by
over 4000 majority.
Export or Specie.
It is well for us that we possess the Cal
ifornia.mines, and still better if the opin
ion shall prove to be well founded that these
mines are inexhaustible; for from no otli
er quarter could we derive the precious
metals in sufficient quantity to meet the
constantly increasing demand for specie to
pay for the manufactures of foreign na
tions.
Tho New York Journal of COmmerce
gives the following statement of the a
mount of specie which has been exported
from that port alone during nine months
of the present year:
Reported in January,
Reported in February,
Reported in March,
Reported in April,
Reported in May,

Total since January la> 530.218,047
Same time 1853, • 15,207,76%
Same time 1852 " 40,652,870
All this indicates a very unequal sort of
"free trade." The importations of for
eign goods must have been indeed execs-
SiVC to require such heavy drafts upon the
specie of the country.

held an inquest on the body of 'Melinda
Harman, a young ladyaged twenty years,
at the Baltimore Cemetery, said to have
come to her death by poison. Mrs. Ring

she was taken ill, and sent to the. drug

been procured to kill rats.. Miss Harman .

as she supposed, a table-spoonful of meg

what it was. The answer was arsenic ;

THE LORING TRACIEDY.—The jury
empanneled in New York to try Dr. Rob
ert M. Graham, for the murder of Col.
Charles Loring, brought in a verdict of
manslaughter in the second degree. Pre
vious to the verdict the jury - Waked to be
discharged, on the ground that one of
them was cousin to the prisoner by mar
riage, but it was withdrawn by consent,
and the trial proceeded with eleven jurbrs.
Dr. Graham is very wealthy, and was so
journing during the summer at the St.
Nicholas Hotel with his family. In a
drunken spree lie deliberately killed Cul.
Loring, who was also boarding with his
gamily at the St. Nicholas. Upon the
rendition of the verdict, the counsel of
Graham obtained a stay of proceedings
for twenty days, to enable them to file a
bill of exception.. The punishment of
the offence is not less than four, years' im
prisonment nor more than seven years.

tatoes of stiperor quality from lorty rods
