RAILROAD DIISRIAN AGE MEM 'I
It is not surprising that prejudices against
railroad companies arise, when we see the
insane manner in which seine of them are
managed. The example of careful manage
ment which the Great Central Route of Penn
sylvania has set, we regret to see, is not fol
lowed by other routes, and in their mad com
petition they not only cut their own throats,
but temp44arily injure all railroad enter-
prises.
Those unhappy and ill-managed companies
the New York Central and New York and
Erie, have got into another war. The con
test arose about tickets--each company charg
ing the other with a " breach of faith," and
the result is a competition which is most dis
astrous to both companies.
In speaking of this railroad imbroglio, the
New York Times says that it is really aston
ishing that railroad stooks have any market
value whatever. The recklessness with which
the roads are managed, the disregard of the
interests of stockholders which is evinced,
and the ruinous policy which is frequently
adopted for the purpose of gratifying the feel
ings, or promoting some incidental interest
of leading directors,-continue to render them
nnything but safe and reliable investments.
Indeed, this has become so well understood
by the public at large, that everything like
confidence in them has been pretty thorough
ly destroyed already. The New York Central
and the Erie roads are just now illustrating
this feature - of our system of railroad man
agement in a very striking manner. Each
seems a great deal more anxious to damage
the other than to take care of its own stock
holders. Both have enormous debts, and
have all they can possibly do to stagger under
the load of interest imposed upon them.
The Erie has very nearly touched bottom,- -
its stock being at about as low a figure as ant ,
railroad stocks are allowed to reach in Wall
street. It is a matter, probably, of compar
atively little importance to its managers,
whether they do busines- at a loss or not.
It has accordingly been reducing its fares for
the purpose of injuring its rival,—and the
Central is foolish enough to enter into the
competition. Both these roads are now brin
ing passengers from Buffalo to New York at
a price which—if they have business enough
and persist long enough in doing it,---will
bring them both to the hammer. Every train
run through at these rates is a dead lose to
stockholders. Each road will probably sink
some hundreds of thousands of dollars within
the next few months in the endeavor to dam
age its rival. The stockholders of both roads
pocket the loss ! The public at large unques
tionably gains by the process—just as they
would gain if two rival merchants, for the
'satisfaction of ruining each other, should
give away their goods. And it is the busi
ness of stockholders to look out fir their own
interest. They have two modes of saving
themselves : They can change the direction,
or sell out their stock. Lf this present policy
is pursued much longer, it will be just about
as difficult to do the one, as it has hitherto
been found to do the other.
Nor is this all the evil which results.
While this foolish and suicidal contest is go
ing on, the well managed roads of the coun
try, such as the Pennsylvania Central, suffer
in a degree. The kind of competition into
which these New York roads have entered
with one another, is not honest either to
stockholders nor to the public. The New
York and Erie and New York Central comb
panies are already about as low in the finan
cial world as they can well get without break
ing up altogether, and the course they are
now pursuing must eventually wind them up
so tight as to induce in the end a more honest
and sensible system of management.
SNNTJENCED
We notice with some surprise the sentence
on Saturday, of a young man named Morgan
8.. Bryan to the Penitentiary for the term of
one year, for the offence of vending lottery
tickets. We have no sympathy with law
breakers, and with every respect for the bench,
wo but reflect the almost unanimous dissent
of public opinion from the equity of the sen
tence. Such severity was neither necessary
to reform the offender, nor as an example to
other law breakers. The offence and the
punishment are altogether disproportionate.
What an outcry there would he if all persons
guilty of legal misdemeanors were thus dealt
with.
CAM. OVERTuN CARR, of the Navy, a son
in-law of Hon. William Wilkins, who has for
some time been a resident near our city, has
been ordered to the Navy Yard at Philadel
phia, and will soon leave to assume his official
duties there. lie is to have charge of the
Navy Yard under Commodore Stewart, who
is chief in command at that station. Capt.
Carr has many friends here who will regret
his departure from our midst.
A Libel on Ar.:hblrhop .'tu{,he•
Archbishop Hughes on Thursday last, made
an application to the Grand Jury in Albany for
an indictment against the Albany Statesman
for an alleged libel contained in letters publish
ed in that paper, exposing the doings of a Soci
ety, which it claims to exist tinder the naute
of the "Circle of Je , is." The application
was denied. on the ground that, if the mat
ter was libelous against the Archbishop, the
prosecution should take place in this City
where he resides, and not in Albany at the
expense of that county. The Archbishop
then offered to bear the expense of the prose
cution, but to no purpose.

Death of an Actor
We learn that Mr. S. E. Harris, well known
throughout the countn as a circus manager,
and who was so successful at the old Nation
al in Philadelphia, with Uncle Tom's Cabin,
died a few days ago at Altoona, Pa., of con
sumption. He had gone to the mountains
for the benefit of his health, but disease had
taken so firm an hold upon him that reouve.
ry was impossible.

We have news from Camp Scott, Utah, to
the 29th ult., brought by the mail. It con
firms the previously received accounts of the
abandonment of Salt Lake City by the Mor
wons. It is stated, moreover, that the Mor
mons intend to rendezvous at Provo City,
where they design fortifying themselves to re
sist the troops, should they proceed against
JUNE 21 1858
them. Gen. Johnson had decided to advance
without waiting for the arrival of Captain
Marcy with supplies and animals. Col. Hot?.
man's command was seventy-eight miles east
of Fort Bridger. It is probable, therefore,
that upon the arrival of CA Hoffman, Gen.
Johnson will commence a forward movement.
The Peace Commissioners reached the camp,
either on the 29th or 30th ult.

Some cur c=ity is usually fcit to know the pri
vate history of men who are proposed for public
office. Judge Pertei -pew a eau ~hirable por
ion of his life in this town. Oa his appoint
went the Supreme Bench, w;_ published a short
sketch of him, which was copied by some of our
exchanges. We add a few more facts, well
knewn to his friends here, which may prove in.
teresting to others.
Hq was burn in Hunting ion county, Pennsyl
vania, in 1821, and is now ebont thirty-seven
years of age. He is the sou of the Hon. David
It. Porter, whose name has long heed fam , liar to
our people. His mother was the daughter of
Mr. McDermott, who emigrated from Scotland
during the last century, fer the purpose of en
gaging in manufacturing iron in Western Penn
sylvania Being Irish on one hand and Scotch
on the other, Judge Porter has a good right to
the title of ScoLh-Irish, so much eulogised in
his life of Judge Gibson.
His early life was passed iu Huntingdon, but
we have no information respecting it. He came
to Easton more than twenty years ago, and spent
several years at college in this town. His teach
ers speak of him as a boy of quick and active
mind: a persevering student and exceedingly
truthful and honorable in his thoughts and feel
iugs. Du,-ing his college coerce he maintained
position at the head of the class. He early
el ,wed a talent ter debate and rep - esented the
I;terary ~:ietles on several occasions. He be
me prAlcieut aieo in aririli and intellectual
philosophy. In the e.ncieat languages he was
p trticularly dietinguished, much s-
graduating he delivered au original speech in
Greek and Latin.

WILLIAM .4.. Pi:TATE:R.
In 1839, Mr. Porter commenced the study of
tte law in the office of lion. J. M. Porter, who
has turned out more lawyer .i than some of our
bars contain. Several years were here devoted
to the study of the law. During this time he be
came a general favorite of our citizens, and that'
will vote for him with unanimity which few
phblre men could commend.
In 1842 he was appointed by Attorney General
Johnson, District Attorney for Philadelphia,
which brought him in contact with some of the
;ildest m‘-mbers of that bar. We have always
understood that he discharged the duties of the
f ) ffiee with ability. The Sheriff of Philadelphia
having died, a violent contest for the remainder
of the term ,usu: I Unable L..) please either
oition, Judge Porter's father, theu Governor,
.:ppoint.id him to the office. This was an uncotn-
fortable position, for the uproar on all sides was
great. Besides the political discontents, pro-
Le, , dings wen• commenced to test his eligibility,
cu the ground cf . age. But the character of the
Alice was soon changed. Order was brought out
f confusion and all illegal fees abolished.
Money was promptly paid over, and the business
-as conducted with an exactness and precision
ah are said to bP memorable to this day. The
o able riots of that period commenced about
time 0.,e of the most exciting occurred in
lloparting from the custom of his
ort•dectssors, Sheriff Porter placed himself at
heal of a pose of several hundred citizens
ag,tl:_st nli renetonstrunce proceeded to the
scene of disturbance. The newspaper accounts
a still fresh in ur minds. At the first dis
eia.rge of fire arms, the posse left the Sheriff
with but a handful of supporter,. The testi
m oy afterwards given in Court, brought the
faote prominently to view One of
toe witue,i• te-•titied that after a tong search be
fund the Sheriff in the midst of the fight, sur
reunded by several hundred of the rioters, and
severely injured On being urged to retire, he
replied, not until the riot is quelled. In the
presence of th. 3 witness he was again knocked
down and very much trampled. The result was
a long illness. We have frequently heard Mr.
Porter say, that on recovering from his illness a
tow world seemed to open upon him, for all op
position to his administration as Sheriff, was
t. The frowns with which he was formerly
met were changed for congratulations Those
whom his amiable temper and integrity had failed
r. ) influence were won by his disposition to do
his duty.
At the close of his term as Sheriff, the mem
oars of the bar, without distinction of party,
presented to him an address which was re
published in this paper, at that time. Among
other things, they say " we cheerfully bear our
testimony to the faithfulness and purity with
winch you have discharged your responsible
trusts, to the decorous manner in which the
affairs of your office have been managed, and to
' the promptness and correctness with which all
I its business has been conducted." On turning
to the list of signatures, we see the names of
Meredith, Randall, Ingraham, Mallery, Dallas,
Gilpin, Brown, Price, Reed, Tyson, Campbell,
Tighlman, Wharton,. Cadwallader, Ingersoll,
Scott, Hubbell, Perlzu2a, Bayard, and several
hundred equally distinguished and of all polit
ical opiniobs.
On retiring f ruw lie Small:Us office, Mr. Por
ter resumed the practice of the law, in Philadel
phia, and continued it with success :or fifteen or
sixieen years, and until his appointment to the
beach. His succese, which was almost unpre-
cedented, might have been expected from hie
ability, industry and legal knowledge.
In 1840 the Trustees of the late Bank of the
[hilted Btriies selected him as their e,une:el.
Somo of his opponents, we see, abuse him as the
Solicitor of the Bank. This was not so. He
was c-'unsel - dY the Trustees, who were hostile to
the former managers of the Bank, and were en
gageu in suits against many of them. This ap
pointment, which brought him in contact with
lawyers iu nearly every county in the United
Stairs and many of the cities iu Europe, added
to his practice Several hundred thousand dol
lars were thus collected and in the end the notes
and deposits of the Bank were paid in full prin
cipal and interest, (a result at first wholly unex
pected,) and the remainder of the assets vre.-0
distributed among the other claimants.
In 1856, when the finances of Philadelphia
Ise.d been greatly reduced, and a vigorous effort
to overthrow the dominant party, had been de
termined on, Mr. Porter was selected as the
Democratic candidate for City Solicitor, and the
ticket was elected by a large majority.
His skillful, energetic and independent course
in that office, is well known. Hie letter to Coun
cils, composed of a majority of his own party,
in which he refused to interfere, at their request,
in a case pending in Court, was ceuera.lly read
nd qpplaaded by men of all pariiee
When Judge Knox resigned from the bench of
the Supreme Court, Governor Packer, in accor
dance with the wishes et the pasty thr , :ughout
toe State, appointed Mr. Porter to his presfmt
position; and the convention which :assembled
at Harrisburg on the fourth of March last, con
firmed this selection by ea almost unanimous
vote.
Such has been his political and professional
e:urse. Hie life has not, bowever, been wholly
ievore , i CO professional occupations. At college
exhibitoii much literary taste. His address
before our literary societies, in 1843, vr :is highly
iir-truutive. We remember also his delivering
air address before the Law Academy of Phila
delphia, of which he was one of the Prevosts,
but she subject has escaped us. His most sue
cessful publication is his work on the character
of John Gibson, who, it seems from the preface,
showed him much kindness in esr;y life. This
work was extensively noticed by the reviews
throughout the country, and had a rapid sale.
He has been engaged in other labors somewhat
peculiar for a lawyer. He was for several years
one of the Managers of American Simday-Scl; eel
Union and a member of tho committee of publi
cation. In this capacity he selected, supervised
or assisted in the publication of some of the
important treatise published by that Institution
which have exerted so much influence on the
minds of the young throughout the country.
In private life the character of Judge Porter
is without a blot. In his deportment and dispo
sition he is frank, and cordial. In private char
ity he is liberal to a fault. As an advocate he
was exceedingly clear and f( roible. The books
sre full of his arguments. Of his fidelity to
clients, the citizens of this county, of whose
business in Phitadeiphia he head the almost ex
clusive charge, requite autliag to be said; and
besides a safe

A New invention
A new coal gas apparatus, suitable for the
manufacture of gas, either on n large or small
scale, has been invented. It consists of a re
tort placed inside a case lined with fire-brink,
such retort being furnished with an Arohimedean
screw for the facility of supplying it with fresh
inateriat, the screw at the same time discharg
ing the coke or other carbonized substances which
have been exhausted of the gas. These sub
statices fall into Z.-`l.l iron vessel through a de
seenriing discharge pipe.
Chaoutohouc, or india rubber, which consti
totes an article of such extensive and valuable
importatation, reaches this country in masses of
varied shape, but mostly of a dark color. In its
state ac. at first received, it is used for very few
purposes, considerable modification being neces
sary for its adaption for practical service. It
requires f , 3 be transformed into cakes, or sheets,
or tissues, or tubes, or solutions, preparatory to
its ultimate use ; and this transformation re
quires operations a somewhat peculiar kind,
owing to the necessity of rendering the whole
mess, homogeneous in substance. The masses
ao.c: fragmentti,as imported, have much inequali
ty in texture, and are also contaminated with
dirt and refuse. Tu separate these. the
India rubber is first cut into very small fragments
and then steeped iu warm water, by which the
dirt is precipitated. The fragments are dried,
and then thrown into a kind of a kneading :na
chine, where immense pressure is employed to
bring them to one homogenous mass. The India
rubber, though put cold becomes so hot by the
agitation that it cannot be touched by the hand ;
it is necessary to supply the machine with cold
water, which is made nearly to boil by the calo
rie driven out of the elastic mass. So thorough
ly is the mass pressed, rolled, pricked, cut and
kneaded by the severe operation which it under
goes, that all dirt, air, water and steam are ex
pelled, and it presents the appearance of a dark
colored, uniform, smooth mass. It is put into
oast-iron moulds of great strength, and brought
by hydraulic or screw-pressure, to the desired
form.
PHILADHLPHIANB IN Rio.—The construction of
the Railroad, Don Pedro the Second, now being
built in Rio de Janeiro, has been awarded to
American citizens, and the contract is a job of
$3,000,000. The parties who have obtained it
aro two Philadelphians, C. J. Harrah and W. M.
Watts, and W. M. Roberts, a native of Pennsyl
vanin, and three other individuals. They ob
tained the contraiq against the competition of
the English engineers, who had built the first
section of the road, and wiao was backed by a
large English influence in Rio. The locomotives
for the road are to be built in the United States,
and the Philadelphia locomotive builders are ex
pected to put in proposals. The grade of the
road is heavy, over and through the mountains,
and the engines are eipeoted to be of the right
sort.
THE BASIS OP A SETTLEMENT WITH CHINA.-
A private letter from China, which reached us
to-day, states that the Plenipotentiaries at Shan
ghee have agreed to make the following de
mands upon the Chinese Government :
1. The opening of the coast and great rivers
of China to foreign commerce.
2. The access of foreigners to the interior,
tinder the restriction of passports.
3 A reduction of duties on certain articles of
oommmeroe.
4. Residence of an Embassy at Pekin.
5. Indemnity, but no territory.
A peace with China upon the terms here pro
posed will be an auspicious event for the whole
world, but especially for the United States. `

THE Cnops.—The crops of the South, from
Virginia, down to Louisiana, are spoken of in

North and West, the floods have damaged the

WASHINGTON CITY, June 20.—C01. Kane eirivet:
here last night, bringing desitatehes from (le r. Cum
ming, whom he left at Camp Scott on the 16 , tof
May. They were delivered to the President of the
United States,. Their purport has not officially trans.
pirod, bat it is ascertained that many of the accounts
with which the public mud has been pro occupied
are erroneous, end calculated to deceive the countr y
in respect to [Judi matters generally. To this fact
may be attributed the uncourteous refusal of Kane
to communicate with the press. It is udder-deed
that Kane denied the truto of the telegrapne .tu
neuncement from Booneville, intimating that
army should move on tee arrival of the Peace Gem
missioners, when in fact Cumming has reques,
to remain where it is until orders shell be ree,,ved
free Washington. Contrary to reports widely sir.
(misted Kane does not admit that there, have been
any such want of harmony between Guy. Cumming
and Gem Johnson as would jeopardize the public in
terests; he spells in eulogistic terms of Johnson and
the high state of discipline which ilia latter main
mined over his forces, and of the praiseworthy spirit
manifeited by the army daring the winter. The
friends of the administration aro much pleased with
the manner in which ho is understood to allude to
the conduct of Cummins, saying that ho is deserte ,
ing of the gratitude of the country. There was great
hope in Utah, as elsewhere, that the war was at au
end; a peace party had been formed and was suffi
ciently strong in time to arrest the march of the
Mormon forces against our own ; last spring it was
the impression in Utah that Brigham Young, who
openly espoused the cause of the United States,
would in this respect be able to maintain his posi

the House any information co:.cerning the proceed
ings of the British cruisers in the Gulf.
Lord Malmesbury said he had nothing but ex
parte statements, but from a conversation with the
American Minister, ho believed there we-. no great
difference in the views of the two countries on the
question, and from the orders sent out to the officers
of the West India squadron, no repetition of such
proceedings was likely to occur.
The leader of the Times, speaking of these out
rages, says "' The treaties with France and Amer
ica having expired, it is madness for England to
assert pretensions to which no strong and independ
ent power is likely to submit. The good done by
searching foreign vessels, is nothing compared with
the bad bleed engendered. And though many so
called outrages are undoubtealy exaggerations, yet
enough is known from the practice of searching ves
sels under the American fleg, that it ought to be
ended at once."

The number and formidable character of diseases of
the Liver have long challenged the attention et medical
men. Some - of their diseases, classed under the general
i term of Consumption, have been supposed incurable, and
the unhappy patient allowed to die, without medical science
to offer him a hope of recovery. Happily this can no longer . .
be the case. A . rem.dy has been found which will cure all
' complaints, of whlitever character, arising from derange.

have their origin in tins dicuaee. of this organ. Remedies
hitherto proposed for liver complaints, have failed to oper
