our own and adjacent States. Almost all of
those who will he here will desire to make
purchases of one sort or another, from the
merchants and dealers of our city, anti who
ever wishes to make large cash sales during
the Fair week should advertise their goods
and their places of business to attract the at.
tention of strangers- The ifetkly I has
by far the largest and hest distributed circu
lation of any Ltemreratie journal in Western
Pennsylvania, and affords.an unsurpassed
medium of reaching the very people who will
visit our city neat week. Advertisements in
serted in-this week's issue will prove at once
remunerative to the advertisers, and will se,
cure -valuable customers. Our TV, ikly will be
put to press this afternoon, and Dill adver
tisers. who may wish to avail themselves :of

In the Daily Post, we will also insert ad
re-rments, handsomely displayed in large

JUDGE BLACK, OF NEBRASKA
The Nebraska papers come to hand with
the name of Samuel W. Black at their edito
rial heads, as Governor, "subject to the ap
pointment of James Buchanan and a Demo,
cratic Senate." The Democracy of the Teri
ritory are, with great unanimity, united in
ti- . 3upport of Judge Black for the Guherna
t chair. All the loading men of the Ter
ritory are active and earnest in their advo
cacy of his appointment. He is in every way
well qualified for the position, and hie inter,
eats are all identified with the people of the
Territory. He possesses the confidence and
esteem of his party at home, and is favorable
known all over the country as a man of fine
talent and great personal and political integ
rity. His appointment to the Chief .Magic,
tract' of the embryo State would be endorsed
by the Democracy of the country, as well as
by the people of this new and flourishing ter
ritory.
The Illusical Festival.
To. night Karl Formes gives the first of
his musical festivals in this city, assisted by
Miss Hattie Andem, Madame Schuman, Mr.
Ernest Perring, and Carl Anschutz, with a
full orchestra from the New York Academy
of Music. The great reputation of the leads
ing artist as the first living Basso, the well
known talent of the celebrities who accompa
ny him, and the musical addition to a concert
in this city of a full orchestra of first class
artists, have combined to excite a greater de
sire on the part of our citizens of all classes
to be present tonight, than any musical
event since Jenny Lind's first concert has
produced. The City Hall to-night will pre
sent a gay, deligh,ied and fashionable throng.
A few seats may be secured at Mellor's and
Kleber's, and admissm tickets will be fur
sale at the door.
Why Don't the Cable Work.
The New York Times, of the lth, says:--
"We are at last furnished - with a reason why
the Atlantic Cable is not working. The Com ,
pang appears to have been taken by surprise
in:the successful laying of the long wire, arid
to have omitted provision for a stouter and
stronger strand re cinired at either tv.minus,to
save the line from the dangers of shallow wa
ter. This heavy , cable was only shipped from
London, under the charge of Mr. Clifford, at
the first of this month. His instructions
were to make the substitution at the Valens
tia end forthwith, and then proceed to Trinity
Bay—a task requiring at least three or four
weeks in the fulfillment. The London morn• ,
ing papers of Sept. Ist, announce according.
ly, that at the end of three weeks the line
would be ready for public use, and that the
London celebration would be reserved for
that occasion."
Canada.
There . is a vigorous effort in progress in
Canada, for the removal of the Governor.
General, in consequence of the breaking up of
the Brown-Dorian Ministry. Indignation
meetings are being called in all parts, at sev
eral of which resolutions have been passed
condemnatory of Sir Edmund Head, and ad
dresses prepared to be sent to the Queen,
praying for his - excellency's recall.
The telegraph from Leavenworth states that
twenty wagons are about to leave that city
for Pike's mountain, and that Wm. If. It us•
sell, the celebrated anti energetic government
contractor, is fitting out forty wagons to fol
low in a few days: We have taken some
pains to ascertain,says the Washington Union,
the characters of the parties who have re.
ported the gold deposits Peak, and
find that at Leavenworth they are fully cred
ited, and the belief universal that very yak
liable mines are abundant. Not long ago, in
speaking of " the great events on the Pacific,"
anticipating just what is now exciting the cu
pidity of our frontier people, we asked :
' Who shall say that California and Frazer's
river have an exclusive deposit of the pre
cious metals of the precious metals of this
great country ?" We have, indeed, believed
that explorations would disclose great mineral
wealth throughout the whole mountain region
extending from about latitude thirty-four up
to the parallel of fifty. Major McColloug,h
and Gov. Powell, in passing to and from Utah,
were invited to examine what the Indians
imagined to I,e rich gold deposits. Those
gentleman, however, do not think it proper to
depart from their line of travel, but express
considerable confidence that at an early day
valuable mines will be disclosed near the Utah
rock.
rl, f:, at SoIUDg-r'. in
Near Ironton,. Ohio, on Monday of last
week, two men named Nash and Guthrie, who
had had a previous difficulty, growing out of
a law-suit , met at the house of a .Justice to
have a new trial. Nash went there armed
with rifle and revolver, persistently threat
ening to shoot G-utL7ie it he made his appear
ance. Guthrie did appear,arme4 With a rifle to
defend himself, if necessary. When GuCii
rie reached the place, he was notified that
Nash was on the look-out for him, threaten
ing his life, and would probably fire upon
him at first sight. Guthrie retreated up stai rs
and shortly Nash made his rppearance,
swearing'terrible vengeance, and declaring if
he could see only a hand's breadth of Guth
rie's person, ha would put a bullet through
him. It was in vain the efforts were made
to pacify him by the by standers. A peace
warrant was obtained for his arrest, but he
theatened instant death to any man who at
tempted to arrest him. Nash insisted that
Guthrie was secreted in the house, some
where, and avowed his determination to find
him. Ile had reached the porch, and was en
deavoring to effect an entrance, when Guthrie
from within shot him dead. The ball en
tered his forehead aid lodged in his brain.
The detailed accounts from Utah, are to
the 21st of August. A new line of policy
seeins_to have been adopted by the Mormon
Priesthood in their relations to the people.—
They have come to the conclusion that too
great an intimacy has a tendency to lesson
their influence, and, therefore have resolved to
keep themselves aloof for a season, and to
stop preaching the word as it is in the Book
of Mormon. The Indian tribes in the valley
and its vicinity, have been giving some
trouble, which is believed to be the result of
Mormon intrigue. The officers of the United
States Courts in the Terriitory, find some
difficulty iu properly performing their duties,
in consequence of the obstacles thrown in
their way by the Mormons.
The prisons continue well tilled with po
litical prisoners. Mr. Escandon has been set
at liberty, his brother having paid the $30,.
000 the Government had asked him to loan
it. The money was paid without even a re
ceipt being taken, Mr. Eseandon holding that
the act was a downright robbery, and a receipt
from the Government was of no more signifi
cance than a similar document taken from a
band of robbers on the highway. His con
finement has been a serious disaster to many
industrious; people. Before his imprisonment
he had on his pay list over 21),u01) people
employed on his different haciendas, and in
his several factories and mines. So soon as
ho saw that the Government was disposed to
prosecute him, he ordered his factories closed,
and all labor discontinued in his mines and
on hie haciendas. The only great work which
he has not discontinued is the railroad from
Mexico to Vera Crnz.
—lt is stated that by dipping the part of the
linen stained with ink in melted tallow, and af
terwards washing it in the usual manner, the
ink will be removed without any injury to the
cloth.
—The London Time., alluding to the Canadian
iavita.ion to the Queen to visit her North Amer
ican subjects, thinks the Canadians must admit,
that the difficulties in the way of such an event
are sadly destrnotive of the speculation. Ber
lin is far away for a Queen, though not too far
for a mother, but Montreal and New York are
further still, and, in spite of the telegraph,
there is a stormy ocean between us and them."
Pike's Peak-- tiohl on this Ski..
We know nothing of a definite character of
the alleged discoveries at Pike's Peak, which
is somewhere in the neighborhood of six
hundred miles from Leavenworth City, in
Kansas. If they should prove to be valuable
and extensive, a new turn will be given to the
frontier settlements. Leavenworth City, now
numbering near ten thousand inhabitants and
situated on the extreme westrrn river, on the
direct lire to Utah and New Mexico, and com
manding a large share of the fur and skin
trade to the great interior, promises to be
come, under the influence of the gold fever,
which is just setting in, a most important
place. It is only about three years old, and
having just elected Mr. Dentuan,a Democratic
mayor,'and sot out in its grand career of a&
vancement under the stimulants of large gold
deposits, we may , well look with interest to
its future progress ° and development as an
other "Wonder of the West." But all this is
in anticipation. People should be cautious
how they credit anal 2.et ,t.ipon such testimony.
We are rot prepared to say that fthe half has
yet been told of the mineral wealth of the
country. We are confident, indeed, that the
work of disco Nary in that way has only just
Commenced. Meanwhile the richest deposites
are poor, when compared with the solid fruits
o f agriculture in any I,s.rty Of the Country.

'I Ito East India Company
On the first of the present month there oc
curred a very important historical event. The
mammoth British East India Company,
which has been in existence for centuries,
and which backed up by the. British Govern
ment, has made conquests more extensive
and permanent than any other in modern
times, ceased to exist. The London Times,
in nitioirig the event, remarks :
" gut the story of the East India Company is
the strangest of them all. In little more than a
century and a half it has woo and attached to
its rule a greater area, and several times the
number of people, than ever fell to any can
queror or family of comprors. China id no ex
ception. There is a vast multitude only changed
their dynasty, scarcely COlElCioille of a conquest of
policy. And this has been done by means un
known before. The founder of the Persian
dynasty, it was said, was the father of hid poo,
pl 3 ; his successor was a soldier, and ho that
followed, a trader. In those days. the institu
tions of peace came the last. In our times a
small company of merchants set up a factory on
the banks of the Hoogbly, and within the life
time of two men Villa might have talked with
ono another, they have annexed and brought to
the gates of the factory, at least a seventh part
of the whole human speulee.
Hereafter India will be ruled directly by
the 'British Queen and Parliament. Hindol
tan will be as much a part of the British
Empire as Ireland.

:Sow the doubting Thomases have all disappear
ed. The news received within the last week
through half a dczon of different channels, is
so positive autl (impolitic tint nothing seems
left to hang a doubt upon, aul'tlie puulla le ztroug
in the faith that the gold mines of 'Western
sunce.ikfully rival those of Cali
fornia.
The sources from whioh information has been
received are quite numerous. A letter from an
old business man of Leavenworth, Mr. Wible,
reached hero yesterday. It was written at
Cherry Creek, and nontaine the latest news from
the gold region. Mr. W. writoo ;W the he has
satisfied himself, from personal Aserve.tions,
that the supply of gold is veolifie and easy
to obtain. lie urges his form r business part
ner and several other old frit:ll4s to come out at
once, and bring heayy Weksf
goods with them
as well as mining toots, to su ply the otraugers
ii
who are now hurrying thither f. om all directions.
A letter of si,milar nurport from the same loom
tine, re;.', 4 .P 7 0 4 in St. 4 bseP4 on Friday evening,
imperfeci'apparatus
states that miners, '7,! k h vu3'
aro making $8 and $lO per day, &sad that. with
proper tools they could realize four or five times
as much. Several members of the LAW -ince
Company, who went out last spring, have just
returned home for tools, eta. They report their
comrades realizing about $lO per day with
tools of the rudest description. A Missourian
who returned a few days since has some speci
mens of the gold with bins in this city. It is of
very fine quality. Several of those who have
returned, estimate that minto o, with the Koper
outfit and tools, could realize on au average $6O
per day.
The first party for the mines from this pity
was organized on Saturday evening, under the
name of the Pike's Peak City Mining Company.
Gen. William Latimer, formerly of Pittsburgh,
was elected President. The party will start for
the gold region about the first of October, hop..
ing to arrive there in about a mouth. Should
they bo delayed on the way, however, they may
spend the winter at Brent's Ford. They will go
with a mule train, taking with them outfit and
provisisions for six months. They expect to ex
perience some hardships, as the weather in the
vicinity of Pike's Peak is very severe during the
winter. They design founding a town, as well
as carrying on miningEoperations. Companies
are also forming in Sumner, Kansas City, St. Jo
seph, Omaha, and at several other points. Some
of them will start this fall, but they will genet.%
ally prepare to go out with the opening of spring.
Oue of the papers of this city says : "Leaven
worth is the main starting point, * * * and th e
trip from here to the gold region can be made in
less time, by some weeks, than by starting from
any other point on the M 7 esouri."
The St. Joseph and Kansas City papers make
the same claim, each assuring the public that
(heir city is much the nearest and most advan•
lageoiri starting point. The truth is, there is
little to choose between these oities. In fact,
ther3 will be four :or five points, when spring
opens, affording nearly equal facilities as outfit
tong poets for the region; and maps, &c., will
probably be issued, showing that eaoh of them
is superior to all the other. Sumner, situated
on the river at its great western bend, thirty
miles above here, is just erecting a large estab
lishment for the manufacture of overland wag
ons—a fact which, in connection with i A natural
position, will give that point important advanta•
gee. But no one town will be able to secure
the lion's share of this lucrative outfitting trade;
it will be divided among the several thriving em
bryo cities, that are springing up along tho Itlia
sonri.
A good road will he opened to the gold region
early next season ; until then, the routes to it
will be somewhat oirouitous, and will be about
slx hundred miles long. The deposits have been
found in various sections, and the supply of gold
is believed to extend through a large tract of
country.
Charles M. Hays, the murderer of the cripple
Buffum, In 1856, who was arrested by order of
Governor Geary, and set at liberty on straw bail
by Judge LFoompe has just been re-arrested in
Sumner, on a criminal charge. He has succeed
ed in avoiding the officers of justice for the
last two years, but will now, it is said, be taken
to Laysence, and tried on the old charge.
Trio nomination for the members of the terri
torial legislature will generally be made on the
15th inst. Southern Kansas which contains as
much as Northern, (the Raw River being the
dividing line,) is almost entirely disfranchised
under the old apportionment upon which the
election is hold. This foot will materially in
fluence the complezion of the House, for the
radical 'men and the Republicans, are much
stronger in the South than in the North. The
Republican element will predominate in the
House ; but from two or three counties, " free
state democratic" delegations will probably. be
stmt.
The large district in Leavenworth, which was
dertroyed by the conflagration in July, is being
rapidly rebuilt, and some fine edifices, are going
np. There is a wonderful elasticity about this
young city; but unless she Boon makes stronger
exertions than hitherto, for a railroad connec
tion, she will be left in the shade by St. Joseph,
or some of her rivals.

Th• Yanke• Charmer and Hle Rattle-
anakes
A correspondent of the South Carolinian, at
the Sweet Springs of Virginia, thus mentions
an exhibition there by a snake charmer :—A
tail, bony, Yankee-looking fJrrigner, last from
California, made his appearance with a box of
snakes—rattle-snakes, 'moccasins, black-snakes,
vipers, &a, He collected a crowd around him,
though at a respectful distance, and grasping
with both hands a banal] of snakes, cuiledAhem
around his neck, and thrust them into his IH
sore, as if they were strands of silk or cotton.
Their twisting and turnings seemed to give him
pleasure, while the bystanders were tilled with
very opposite emotions. He profec.ses to tame
his savage friends by mesmerism, and thus fights
the rattle-snake with his own weapon.
Some in the crowd suggested that he should
take a wild, untamed snake, and show his power
over it, which he agreed to do for twenty five
dollars. This sum was readily subscribed, and
a rattle-snake, caught the day before, was soon
procured. The operator examined him with
some caution. but presently turned the box over
and threw the venomous reptile upon the green
sward. He kicked him about several times,
caught him by the tail and threw him back and
forth, and finally seized by the middle, and held
him at arms' length. The snake turned his
head towards him, and their eyes met—the lat
ter fixed his gaze steadily upon the snake, and
kept it so for several minuted, when he suddenly
coiled it around his neck, thrust It in his bosom,
as he had done the others, and the snake seemed
entirely docile. Two days after, he repeated his
experiment for twenty. dollars on a large rattle
snake which had just been caught, and with
similar results. A crowd of ladies, gentlemen
and children, in the piazza of the hotel, witn ese d
the singular exhibition. It was painful to be
hold, though the individual seemed to have the I
most entire confidence in his ability to control
the horrid reptiles.
A New way to Recover Stole" Property.
Tho dwelling house of Solomon Wolcott, at
Sp Arbor, Jackson county, was entered, on
Tuesday last, and money to the amount of $1,..
800 taken away. For F. time it was found im
possible to tiud any trace of the thieves. Final
ly two men in Spring Arbor got on track of
them, but could learn nothing positively to iden
tify them. They went in disguise to the house
of one of the enspeoted men, ,and induced him
to go into the wood. When they reached there,
they charged him with the robbery, New e l l h o
denied. They then seized him, and placing a
rope around his nook, hung him to a tree. They
left him there a moment, and then lowered him
again. He again denied being the robber, upon
which they again drew him up. On being let
down the second time, he still refused to confess
any thing about the matter.
until
etw e womaes dead,
unless
told him they would hang him
h
unlese he owned the matter. Seeing that they
were in earnest, he confessed the whole mattter,
stating that another anon, whose name was giv
en, was with him, and bad the money. The
two men then waited upon the accomplice, call
ed him to the woods, and ecrved him in a similar
manner, upon which he_gave them the informa
tion they desired, as to the whereabouts of the
money, which was all recovered but about $ 18.
