Gov. Pollock will! not. Let those claims

or if a Locofooo Legislature, controlled by
them, will not consent—to adopt this fair
method of dealing, let

The Appropriation Bill was detsit,ed
from the hands of the Governor until the

Legislature felt the bill deserved. The

is illustrative dike important)e of physical

and animated by an honest desire 14irrese
the imply of, political power from a par
ty that he, pro van itself unfitted to wield
it for the popular good, the citizens of
Pennsylvania oppoied to the policy of the
Pierce and Douglas dynasty seem disposed
to unite in a commoti movement to secure
the defeat of anti-American Nebraska Lo •
cofocoiam at the October election. The
tiaket nominated at fiarrisburg by the U
nion Convention is warmly supported by
the entire American, Whig and Republican
Press of the State. This policy, honestly
carried out, must achieve a brilliant tri- I
uroph. That there is a largo majority in ,
the State hostile to Llcotoookm, will not
admit of serious controversy. The diffi
culty last fell was to eombine and develops
ibis opposition, in snob a, was as to be ef

to bo successful. A better feeling and tru

movement )itts auspiciously 'commenced.,

red to adopt a similar basis of action in the
arrangement of local politics. A call will
'be found in to•day's paper, for a COUN
TY MEETING on the evening of the 27th

nomination of a County Ticket to be sup

'derstood. has halm prepared after an exten
ded interchange of opinions with our po
!ideal friends 'in various parts of the °nun-
Sy, and reflects the general sentiment 10
far as it hu been ascertained.
The American party, representing full
tbrewfourtim ofthe anti•Lecofooo voters of
the County, yielditig to the getieraldesire to
carry out hi the County the Union an au.
spiciously inaugurated at Harrisburg, have,
through their Executive Committee, con.

who desire honestly to accomplish the do.
feat of Lociafoccisni. All they ask is that
they shall r.t be requirsii es-seelincesbeir

this.
There is so good reason why every bon:
eat Americas, Whig, sad Republican vote
should not be commanded in support of
common candidates, reflecting enough of
opposition to the peculiar policy of Ne
braska Locofocoisin to satisfy every rea
sonable win- The repeal of the Missouri
Oompromise, and the reckless re-opening
of the Slavery agitation—the base pander
ing to the prejudices of the Foreign vote,
and the development of au anti-American
policy in our National Lotlation--the
sacrificing of the interests of American
Labor—and the general 'demoralization of
partizan politics—surely, in all this there
is enough of common evil to challenge
united and harmonious action on the part
of all opposed tott policy's° destructive of

DEOLMIATION.
We declare our tbted and unalterable de
-1 region if,/ the Constitution of the United
States.
We revere those just rights which the
Constitution deelares to be inviolable—
Freedom of Speech, of the Press, and the
Free exercise of Religiono belief.
W. sro davotod to ;be rjnion of these
States; we recognise no geographical divic
ions—no narrow or 'sectional prejudioes.—
The rights, and priviltiges, and liberties,
which we claim as our inheritance, we con
cedcru their inheritance, to all the citizens
of this Republic.
We bold Slavery to be a political institu
tion, abhorrent to tbe moral sentiment of
humanity, and detrimenval to the natural
development of population—material pow.:
er.
We 'hold the Repeal of the Missouri
Compromise to have inflicted dishonor upon
the age in whicitt we live.
We demand, and shall attempt 'to secure,
the repeal of all laws which allow the intro
duction of Slavery into Territory once con
secrated to Freedom.
We will give the full weight of our po
lit ical power in favor of the immediate ad
mission of Kansas to the Union as a free,
sovereign State.
Holding then these views, wo do associate
ourselves together under the name of tho
"REPUBLICAN AESOCIATTON of New Ox
ford, Adams county, Pennsylvania," and
adopt the following as our political
,PLATFORM
First. That Congress bas no power over
the institution of Slavery in the several
States; but that outside of State jurisdic
tion, the Constitutional power of the Feb..'
ral Government should be exerted to secure
life, liberty and happiness to all men : and
therefore,
Second. There should be neither Slavery
nor involuntaryservitude, except for pun
ishment of crime, io any of the Territories
of the United States'.
r Third. The people are the rightful source
of ill political power, and all oSoers should,
as far as practicable, be chosen by a direct
rote of the people. . •
fourth.' Ginclidates for political odsOes
should be'men of undoubted integrity, and
sobriety, and pledged to support the prittol
plea of this Platform, by all lawful and oon-
Means.

That hallowing eloquent passage is front
Shi pia of Albert Barnes : seA whole
family In Heaven ! Who can picture or
deemikst the eradiating joy. No one is
abient. Nor lather, nor mother, nor son.
nor daughter. are away. In the world
below they are united in faith and love
and peace, and joy. In the morning of
the romurection they ascend together.—
Before the throne they bow together, in
united admiration. On the banks of
the River of Life, they walk hand in
hand, and as'a family, they have cow•
menoed a corset of glory which shall be
everlasting. There is hereafter to be
no separation: 111 that family. No one
is to lie down on a bed of pain. No one
to wander in. temptation. No one to
sink in the arms of death. Never in

slow procession, clad in the habiliments
of woe, to consign one 01 its membere
to the tomb. God grant that in his infi
nite 'merely every family may be thus
united.'
GROWING WHEAL-A gentleman
just returned trout a Western trip informs
us that the crop of Wheat. in Ohio looks
exceedingly promising. From Lake Erie
to the Ohio, through ,the section traversed
by our informant, the fields were cover
ed with the beautiful green plant, now
some six or eight inches high and with
out a bare spot in sight. It is the convic
tion of farmers and others,---that unless
(some unforseen disaster checks the growth
or destroys the wheat before Maturity,
one of the largest crops that have been
gathered will rejoice the farmer next au
tumn. Of course, every one looks (or a
decline of prices in consequence. In
this region the crop looks well, but is thin
in some places, on account of the sowing
of the grown wheat last fall. Farmers
put one quarter more seed per acre, in or
der to make up for what was defective :
but they say that, after all, some fields
show that the germinating principle was
effected more extensively than they sup
posed. We hope strongly for a good,
sound crop of Genese wheat this
yeti, that the reputation of our Flour
may be restored. and the farming cow.

A Canton Oun.—About a year and
a half ago, a widow lady by the name of
Smith, residing on Suffolk street, in this
city, drank some water from a spring at
the sea-shore, and u she supposed, swal
lowed a small eel. Since then she has
gradually been getting out of health, and
at last her illness became se severe and
alarming that her life was thought to be
in great danger. No medicine or physi•
vista could give her relief, till last week.
Dr. Huntoon being !milled in, gave her a
potion that. on Saturday morning, roller
ed her of a lire eel a foot ht length. The
eel has been preeerved and is
decidedly an ugly looking customer. The
