American Pork in England.
A Lyndon correspondent of the N. Y
Post, says there is one much mote en
grossing subject of conversation in En
gland at present than the Aft ican or Alf
ghan war, and that is—'American Pork!'
It is the topic of the day. Every news.
paper contains a paragraph about 'Ameri
can pork'—every shopkeeper in, the pros
vision line advertises 'American pork.'—
Literally or figuratively 'American pork'
is in every body's mouth. The poor man
buys it because he can get it cheap—the
dainty epicure condescends to touch 'the
thing' out of pure curiosity. British pig
breeders are in despair, and grunt out their
grievances, but the public won't listen.
It is to be regretted however that some
knavish bacon-men have attempted to get
off their old mocks of had Irish pork as Am-
erican; thus running the risk of creating
a prejudice at the outset. It is also said
that some of your undoubted pork is not
cured as well as it might be. On the 1.-Oth
of October, the fiist day the tariff came in
to operation, there were sold in Liverpool
1,199 barrels American pork, at 31s. to
465. par barrel, duty paid; 1,522 barrels
beef, at 38s. to 395. per barrel; 311 barrels
huts, at 30s. to 31s. per cwt. All this is
as it should be. Let us have Ohio pigs—
not New York street fed hogs. Noth
ing like 'free trade.' This 'interest or
that 'interest' may raise its selfish, hypo-
CI itical cry, but nothing like 'free trade'
for the public—There will he some difi.
cult) , throughout the coming winter to per
suade the poor Englishman that he ought,
from 'patriotic' (I !) motives, to feed his
hungry family on British Bacon, at 6d.
pet pound,in place of American pork at 4d.
That sort of horrid twattle has almost
had its clay. It is even going nut of fash
ion amongst country squires,
lf this feeling in fay.rr of American pock
continue. and if Victoria will condescend
to grease her chops with a slice of Ohio
bacon, Cincinnati will no doubt insist
with increased pertinacity that she is the
Queen city.
Diddling.
The Chronicle is extretuely anxious to
ascertion "%% ho did diddle Tom Phillips"
at the South Ward meeting last Saturday
evening. "Tom Phillips" candidly admits
the diddling, as he did not expect nor de
sire that the result should be otherwise in
a meeting where Doctor Callahan, Blind
Sam and the ex-auctioneer who diddl.d
the Chronicle so neatly last winter,appear
cd to be the ruling spirits. The success of
these worthies is proper matter for the re.
joicings of the Chronicle, and as we were
fortunate enough to escape their killing
kindness," we have no objectiox to
make to their organ crowing over the re
sult.
This we suppose will satisfy our friends
in 4th street as to the diddling at the dele
vate ireeting in the "old South Ward," and
wa hope they will now turn their attention
to that other important question—who did•
tastes, or perhaps the gentleman may
leave the enlightenment of the public on
this question, to the future proceedings of
the Criminal Court, where the whole mat
-4.-et will be made so plain that even their
South Ward friend blind Sem,may see thro'
it.
Election Frauds.—We learn from the
Pennsylvanian that the investigation into
the recent election for county olTicers in
Philadelphia, instituted on the petition of
whig pipe -la) ers, who alleged the existence
of frauds, is like to result highly to the hon_
or of the democratic party. It is said tha t
the errors already discovered in re-counting
the votes, make the majority of Mr• Palmer,
the democratic candidate for Prothonotary
of the Common Pleas, about three hundred
more than it was reported in the official re
turns. and that of Mr. Flick, for Clerk of
Quarter Sessions, about one hundred more,
The gain for Mr, Lewis, the democratic
candidate for Clerk of Orphans' Court,
found by re—counting is so great that his
opponent Mr. Smith has given up the con
t'st. •
Another Forgery.----The N. Y. Eli); ess
records anotherforgery that has been br nigh t
to light in that city. A. milkman belonging
to Greenwich, Conn., has diddled ,some of
the brokers of Wall street out of different
sums, that in the aggregate amount to about
820,000. He was caning on his business.
very extensively, and was esteemed a man ,
of great.lwealth. Ile conlessed.the forgery

And fl ., r this reason it has been dec:'arcd

Example.—%V hen a misfortune happens) to a
friaiid look forward and endeavor to prevent the
same thing from happening to yourself
If this advice were followed, but; few
would be compelled to pass the ordeal of
the Bankrupt act.
Slendard of Value.—The worth of everything
is determined by the demand for it. In the de •
serts of Arabia, a pitcher or cold water is worth
more lhan a mountain of gold.
When people can rightly apprebiate
this doctrine, locofocoism will not be so
abhorrent. Money is only valuable ac
cor.ling to the amount of the necessaries
of life which it will bring. One dollar for
a day's work is as good wages as ten, dol
lars, if one dollar will purchase as much
Hour as ten dollars. This is a truism
which cannot be controverted.
Luck and Labor.—A guinea found in the
street will not do a poor man so mach good as
halt's. guinea earned by industry.
This is true, but some people cannot be
convinced of it.
There's no such thing as ill luck —lt is true
that smile misfortunes are inevitable, but in , gene
ral they proceed from our want of judgmen t and
foresight.
This admonishes us to lake Davy Crock
et's advice; "Be sure you're right, then
go ahead."
The end of the World In 1843.,
Miller the Millerism preacher, gives the
following passage from the 26th Chapter
of Leviticus, verses 27 and 27.
"And if ye will not after all this hearken unto me
but walk contrary unto me; then I will walk con
trary u ,to you ale• in fury; and I, even I will chas
tise 3 ou seien times fur you s:ns."
This he gives as God's prophecy which
is four times repeated in the Biblei as a
warning to his people. The words "sev—
en times" he explains as follows:—"The
prophecies that have been already fulfill—
ed, such as the destruction of JeruSalem,
the scattering abroad of the Jews; &c.,
and from them defines the word "time" in
a scriptural sense to mean a period of 300
years, (the number of degressrin a circle,)
of 800 revolutions of the earth around the 4 .
r haleq Fueuictit.—The srhfinner
Sun. By this calculation— 1 Anna Mo.;a, Capt. l'e'ers, art ived at New
Orleans rntthP 29th ult„ f rum Sisal in six
d lys. The Picayune says
not Lou of poji.
•at inlinent )ktv.tirr.! 1 ol the P..ninsula
360 years,
The extent of the punishment"seven times"
is thus represented by 2520 years. The
next point is to ascertain when this period
of suffering comme.rced, in order to'deter.
mine when it closes. Mr. Miller 'insists
that it began under the reign of Manasseh,
who was carded captive to Babylon,by the
Assyrians, six hundred and seventy-seven
years before Christ. He quotes chapter
15 of Jeremiah—
"And l will appoint over them four Junk, Faith
the Lord; th.t swords to sloy, and the dogs( to teat,
an I the fowls of heaven,and the beasts of the earth
to devour and destrof. And I will cause them t
be removed into all Iringdomq of the earthiheea use
of Menassah the son of HI .z.tittah, King of Jud ah,
for that which he did in Jerusalem."
The 2520 years of punishment therefore
commenced under Manasseh, 677 B. C.—
As corroborative evidence Mr. Miller shows
that Isaia:t en) .hecies chap. 8 verse,
Ephraim shall be broken so they ' be not
a people. Tbat prophecy was, in 742 B.
C. Just 65 years after that time the cap
tivity took place. Take 65 from 742 and
six hundred and seventy•seven remains!—
,
The result then is this:—
Years before Christ,
Years after Christ,
Yrs of Punishment of the 7 times ,2520
Or thus—
Total time of punishment, 26.10 yra.
Captivity or punishment begun 6Z7 B. C
The end of' ptinishmest, 1843
Thus in 1843 is the dear in which our
punishments are to come to an end. The
23d of April is the day set apart ler the
great event, but he does not state his rea
sons for setting apart-this partistkigtr day.
•
He may think, how‘ver, that he has good
Scriptural reasons fur supposiing that the
23d day of Apiil *ill be the day.
