A t►ew -Way to Restrict the Exercise of
Suffrage.
There have been numberless devices
*aught out to control or thwart: the privil.•
nes of voters; the rich employer threatens
ledischarge his hands, if they "vote against
his interest:' as he expresses it. Oppo
sing partizans are specially sagacious in
tiosing out any neglect of each other to pay
taxes or be assessed, and if there be any
reason to suppose that these essential mat
ters have been neglected, your vote will be
challenged in no very amiable tone. Then
there is the notable scheme of the man who
went round to a number of voters of nppor
site views to hie own, "pairing off"
with some ten or twelve of them in suc
cession, and then going up quietly on the
evening of election day, and voting him.'
self I Bat all these modes of bamboozling
a man out of his franchise, are common
place, compared with that of an old woman
in thisregion, who resolved to make her
husband vote "right."
In 1840, aa''old farm -r from the Em
erald isle, who had always been an ardent
democrat,began to give more attention than
he should have done to the syren song of
"better times," and "two dollars a day and
roast beef."
He expressed the approaching 'change,'
in his opiniors to his ben.' r ha If, who was
luckily more constant minded, and who re-
calved the disclosure with manifest concern
and no little indignation.
. 'Sure, John,' said she, you don't intend
to Ittru_ you're t0..?...t is your old days, and
bring disgrace on all belongin' to ye,' by
desertin' your party ?'
'But,' expostulated the doubting bus.
band, sdid'nt the mcn who walked in pur.
cession in town the other day, prove to
us that a (change'of Presidents would make
"better times" for uslall—aud find work
for the crowds of idle men who now have
nothing to do but march cp and dawn sing•
log Tippecanoe songs —every one of them
was turned out of work by Van Buren.'
`Riot you ashamed, John,' retorted the
*ld Wife, with some warmth, to 'let a pack
of dandies, half drunk with hard cider, put
such nonsense into your head. Keep clear
of them, John, and never desert y.Jur old
friendS for such a lying set.",
But all the old lady's remonstrances
were useless—the farmer had been smitten
with the idea of a'chan ge,' and he heeded
not, the admonitions nor the reproaches
of his iadignant spuse •
Well, election day came at last, and to.
wards night the old man went home to get I
his 'papers,' intending to give his vote for
the coon candidate. He searched for them
in vain, however; they were no where to
be found. His wife was not there to join
in the search, and he started off at last
without them, in no amiable mood. Of
course, under the high excitement, every
man's vote was questioned, and the papers
of our old friend were demanded. In
vain he asserted that he had mislaid his
certificate,and insisted on his right. to vote.
Like all others in the same predic amens,
he was forced to go home wit bout voting,
His wife, he found had returned, and ho
f2ncied in a rather better humor than she
ought to be, considering his vexation.
In a few days, however, he forgot his an
noyance, and then he learned that his wife
to prevent his .disgracia' himsvlf, as she
termed it, had taken the 'papers' with hi r
in the morning, to the city, and bad staid
away all day I
The old man was very angry at first, but
be soon cooled down, and now he is heart.
ily thankful to his determined helpmate
for saying him from the folly of voting for
the bard cider candidates.
This, it will be admitted, is a novel
mode of restricting suffrage—and it is a-
bout the only case we ever heard of, that
we thought justifiable.

his name a mistake of the , priutera, or did the

is most probable=did Mr. Denny refuse to sanc

'of the address to force the party to which he is at
tached, to drag the slimy principles of political al) ,
olitionism along with it in the next contest, and
thus render antipasoury doubly repugnant to every

Fot Engineers mud MillwriVals.
The Keauckian thus describes some new, and it
believes, important inventions of a citizen of Lou•
D French, the lather of the eelobra•
ted steamboat architect Win French; and the
builder of the first steainbout—the compeer of
Fitch and Fulton—a most ingenious and assidu
ous inventor—th e Adam Warner of our time, has
a legacy fir p sterity in the shape of a model tif a
Isteam engine, pilot wheel, tiller, &c.— a perfect
eureka, which be will exhibit at Washington (Lil
-1 By his invention the cylinder vibrates, instead of
being. stationary; dispensing with -the pitm,n in
ordinary engines, and applying the power in a di,.
rcct line instead of an obtrwe angle. It also en
ables the pilot to perform the duties of engineer at
the same time he is at the wheel. Instead of hav
ing to ring the bell for the engineer to stop th.:
boat, the same ?over r squired to ring the bell,
will stop the boat. The tiller, ton, is wo7lied on
an improved principl• : there being no sliek, and
consequently the tiller can be all ti ties worked ,
the boat answering the she test movement, not
compelled to wait fur way. Another, and perhaps
the greatest improvement, is the simplicity of the
machinery and the small space it occupies. There
is less friction, and consequently a saving of pow
er. Altogether, we look upon this as one of the
most valuable improvements in the construction i
of the steam engine. Its cost is not above one
half of the present engines.
Mr French is very old. fie has s pent a long
life in the invention of models. ►fe has devoted
his means to the carrying out of his mathematical
calculations. 11 , 2 desire.; to exhibit his new mo

his past labors, from those who may be pleased
with their result, that he may be enabled to carry

Mr French also exhibits at the sarno place, an
invention to he applieJ to mils by which any

Riot in Carlisle.
A letter in the Philadelphia Spirit of the
Times dated Saturday, the 20th inst., gives
an account of a disturbance (the second of
the same kind that has occurred within a
short period) between a military company
and the students in Dickenson College.—
It is said that in passing the college, th e
soldiers insulted several of the students and
on. of the professors, very grossly. The
students then assembled in a body, (about
100,) and arming themselves with knives,
pistols, clubs, &r., drove the mihary off
the ground. They returned, however, al
, ter having augmented their force consider
bly, and succeeded in driving the students
behind the walls of the 'campus' at the
point of the bayonet. The students rallied,
and fought very surcessfully behind the
wall. They kept possession of the ground
until a detatchment of U. S. Artillery, un
der the command of Lieuts. Dales and Hill
house arrived from the G orison and put
the party on the outside of the wall to flight .
upon which the students retired in order
to their rooms. The officers cf the Infan,
try have been arrested and committed, tos
gether with several privates. There was
much blood shed nn both sides, but there
few were wounded seriously. Many, no
doubt, would have been killed bad the sol—
diers been provided with hall cartridges.—
It is the general opinion of the citizens
that the students did right, for they can
scarcely ever passrlirough the streets with
out being insulted
P. S. 10 o'clock, P.M. An attempt has
just been ma& to rescue the prisoners erre,
ted yesterday; but owing to a strong guard
kept at the prison by Sheriff Martin, it wa s
unsuccessful. At present the excitement
in town is very great. A patrol is walk
ing every street. The U. S. Troops have
liteir cannon loaded, placed by the county
prison, to keep off the mob, who seein bent
on a rescue.
Democratic Selittnel.—We , received
yesterday the first number of tho "Demo
cratic Sentinel," published by our friend
Scriba, in Allegheny city, near the Union
Cotton Factory. It is neatly printed, and
is well filled with po!itical ant miscella
neous matter. In the editor's salutatory
he pledges himself to sustain pure demo•
cratic principles, and as an.earnesr. of his
intention, pours some heavy broadsides in
to those who have objected to the course of
his Excellency, David R. Porter. It is in
favor of the nomination of JAMES BUCILVN
AN for Presi font in 1844, and it promise s
to let the public to know in a short time
who is its favorite for next Governor. It is
published for t Aro dollars per annum, and
considering the quantity of matter it con
tains.it is well worth the price of subscrip
tion.

that the country has been exporting more titan she

foreign goods pouring into our sit ports in such

made some inquiries, and find tuna our intelligen t

for money will not increase very materially until

Our New York friends continue to speak in a

Advertiser of Saturday saybe general aspect
of bus i ness is daily becoming mo e satisfactory.—
The large importations of specie in retcrn for the
crops of the country, and its gradual diffusion
throughout the interior in place of importations of
ineichandiza, have placed th. pending business
upon the soundest possible basis. Stern necessity
has for the last three or four years compelled the
practise of the most rigid enconomy, and the res
toration now going forward may be considered as
its fruit.
So lar as business is concerned, matters appear
to be resuming their former channels, and a more
cheerful and confident feeling I.ervades the com
munity. Money is, if possible, more abundant, ,
loans have been made as low as 4 per cent., and
from present appearances the prospects are favor.
