THE CONGRESSMAN ELECT. Nearly all the papers are publishingthe name of C. B. Curtis, Esq., as re-elected to Congress ftom this District. This is a mistake. Mr. Cur tis was not even a candidate. David Baeclat, Esq., an Anti-Nebraska American Democrat, has been elected by a large majority. Our ex changes can make the correction. v. OHIO ELECTION. Ohio has gone American and Anti-Nebraska by about Fifty thousand ! Never did any ad ministration receive such a rebuke, as the pre sent Pierce dynasty, iu the result of the elec tions in the great States of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana. The people of the North have boldly and almost unanimously proclaim ed their antipathy to thcxtension of Slavery, and by their votes, have denounced the infa jeous Nebraska swindle, thus sending Stephen Arnold Douglass, with all his Presidential as pirations, on a 'tramp to "the other side of Jordan." THE TURNPIKE. The Turnpike, as it is called, between this and Curwensville, is in a most wretched Con dition, and the board ol managers, whoever they are, ought to be most heartily ashamed of it. If some poor fellow don't get his neck broke, this winteonThtThill this side of. the New Bridge, or among the logs sticking iuthe Narrows, it will be because he is better taken care of by Providence, than the ''Turnpike" is ly.it9;ptficers. We cannot ucderstand why .this road, over which there ia more travel than ny other in the county, should not be repaired. The Managers had better attend to it, before somebody gets killed, or . they have to pay damages for the destruction cf property. . T1IE KILKENNY" CATS. It i3 amusing to stand back and look on the beautiful fight now in full progress among the Democratic organs, since they have been so badly licked. The I'ennsy Iranian, thellarris tiurg Union, the Patriot, ' the Berks County Press," and a host of the lesser satelites,'are birkinr and biting at each other, lite as many . peaned-up dogs with kettles tied to their tails, -while- the Ilollidaysburg, Standard is coming down oa Cook of Westmoreland, and the 'im mortal' Drium, like 'a thousand of 1 rick.' Well, boys, "let her flicker," we're like the 1J woman when her husband and the bear were fighting, we "don't care a dam aged ci- - gar which licks." We presume they must sav something, and we had rather sec them spit t their venom at each other, than throw it away. APPLES, EOT.

Master,. Editakd Irvin, a 'bag full ef perfect scrougers" from Mr, ;W. P. FcltoV, and "any -quaii tity" of .first rate cider -' from "Mr. George Hoover.' These friends, together with'all the others who have remem bered us, have the warmest thanks -of -- the whole establishment, and the d l's espe- ciallv. r "FALSE FRETENCES." . - "We are accused of making -"false pretences" in the few remarks we made to the .delegation froEi Curwensville, oh Tuesday night of. last Veek, in reference to the causes of Gov.; Big ler decrease-majority in)iis owa County. Wo raid on that. occasion, that the impression existed among a large portion of our people that the promise made by or for Gov. Bigler in 1851, to procure an appropriation to clean out and remove the obstacles from the channel of our river, had never been fulfilled. We do not know whether such a promise wa3 made or not, but we have, been so informed by someof the most intelligent and Ke3pcctable citizens of our county. It is admitted, however, that such a promise was made for him by some of his friends and it is further alleged that the promise was not only "fully redeemed," but "the appropriation was actually made." This, in their own lan guage, "is simply not true," and we challenge them to show where there has ever leen one dollar appropriated to clean out the channel of the West Branch, under Gov. Bigler's Admin istration. And whether there was or not, it does not alter our position in the least, for our allegation is still truei that the impression ex isted among a large number of our citizens, that ths promise had been made and never ful filled, and that this was one reason why they voted against him. "The second assignment is," that we said it was promised to the people of Burnside town ship and vicinity, that Gov. Bigler would fa vor the erection of Pine County, and that the violation of this promise accounts for the large vote against him iu that section of the county. This they pronounce 'false.' If it is. the citi zens of Burnside township must bear the re- sponsibillty, as we received our Information from them. We were told by several gent'e- m.'S in- New Washington, whose names we c in gire if necessiry, that in 1851, the brother-in-law of Gov. Bigler, accompanied, if we mis take not. by the veritable Daniel himself, and several other members of the "Old Town Clique," visited their village, and promised them, trom the stump, that "if Gov. Bigler was elected they should have Pine County.' And we were further told, by thesime persons, that neither Gov. Bigler, or any of his friends ever took a single step towards the fulfilment of the promise, but that he had "tooled them as bad as Drum." There were some of the local causes we men tioned as accounting for Gov. Bigler's decreas ed vote in Clearfield, and there are others, with which, perhapsj the illustrious Daniel is more intimately acquainted. For example, the appointment cf Post Master in this bor ough. How many votes did that take from Gov. Bigler? We don't know whether he had anything to do with it or not, nor does it mat ter. The people believed ke had, and for that reason voted against him. ' THE NEWS. During the past week the papers have been teeming with news of the fall of Sobastopol, the Gibr ilter of Russia, enough to exhaust the head and fancy letter of any printing office" to set it up in the usual shape : "Terrible Bat tle," "City in Flames,' "Fort Constantine exploded," "Eighteen thousand Russians Killed," "Sebastopol taken." And yet it has all turned out to be the most brilliant hoax, perhaps, ever known to the world, de ceiving not only the populace, but the crown ed heads of Europe. The new s brought by the Baltic was a grand humbug. Sebatopol is not taken the destruction of the Russian fleet i3 false, and Meuchicolf has not surrendered. The despatch purporting to come from Omar Pasha, proved to be a forgery, and a great reac tion has been produced throughout Europe by tho contradicticu of what all had hoped to be correct. This news has been received by the Anica. which sailed on the 7th inst. ThelaUst intelligence we have of the Arc tic catastrophe, is tbit Capt. Lvce, and uinu others were picked up by the ship Cambria, and carried to Quebec. The detailed account given by Capt. Lie e is very atfecting. .When the ship went down, lie suuk with his little son in his arms, arose to the surface, and again sank. Before reaching the surface the second time, he lost hold of the boy, but the child was furnished with a life-preserver, and arose also, and just as the Captain was in the act of reaching him, he "was struck with a portion of the paddle-box, and killed. AVith the life-preserver round his neck, little Willie, floated by his struggling father, dea 1. Capt- Lcce, with a few others, succeeded in getting upon the paddle-box. from which, alter enduring the most severe hardships, "they were rescued hy the Cambria. Of the 223 passengers on board, and the large crew1, scarc-ly two dozen were saved. " - - CoiNTESFt ir Quarters.

' Preaching.-- There will be Baptist Preach ing in the Lutheran Church, in this place, eve ry evening during the week, and also on Sab bath, the 20th inst., at 11 o'clock, A. M. ; THE CAUSE The Berks county Press, commenting on b.' the recent election, give the following reasons for the-defeat of Gov. Bigler, by the largest majority ever given against any candidate tor Governor in the Coruuionwealth. .-.' ; , In 1851 the Democratic majority in the State was upwards of 20,000, ami in near ly 40,000. The Pennsylvauian, under the ed itorial head, and by letters received from all parts of the State, week after week and day alter day, announced that swarms of Whigs were supporting Bigler and opposing Pollocs, because Bigler was in favor ot religious free dom, and was the friend of the toreiirucrs. .notwithstanding wbichj- he js defeated by a larger in yoaity than ever was given agaihst a-Hif Candida. e jor oiervw-. . .-. The election returns too clearly prove, that the demagogues of the democratic party form ed a union with the foreign voters and tho Citholies to re-elect Governor Bigler, and that they tunned a similar union with the so called Know .Nothiugs, and against,the for eigners and Catholics, to elect Mott Canal Commissioner; each party however voting lor their own caudid.tte lor Judge of the Supreme Court. But wheu we see Governor. Bigler traveling through the State and claiming cied it for having reduced the State debt nearly a million of dollar, while so much of the State debt was paid iTby the operation of a sink ing fund established before . he was serious ly thought, ol'for Governor, and that he, while Governor, instead of doing anything to reduce the State debt, signed and approved laws that authorized him to borrow more than two mil lions of dollars, and actually did borrow the money. The result is easily accounted for. Add to this that he proclaimed the finances of the State to be in an excellent condition, while at the same time Le was borrowing money and making new debts. His message promised a reduction of the State taxes, while the action of his administration kept up and increased the State debt; he solemnly declared the le gislative system, of embracing different sub jects in the same bill and passing all inabatch. unwise: and said that he would veto alt such ( b'lls, notwithstanding which ia 1853 and 1854, he approved of three appropriation bills that authorized more than euien jiiillunf of dollars to be paid out of the State Treasury, which bills enhanced more than a hundred diffe, tai subjects and objects, some of which olight nev er have ben sanctioned by a Democratic Gov ernor. He professed to be opposed to new banks , and in favor, of restricting old oues, while he exempted stockholders from the pay ment of taxes; he avowed himself opposed to corporations, and in less than three yoars signed and approved of .more- than six htindi el laces, that legislated for corporations; he de clared himself opposed to municipal subscrip tions to railroads, and yet sanctioned by his igiiature many such subscriptions, amounting to nearly fifteen millions of dollars; he sug gested to the legislature three modes by which the Relief Notes might be cancelled, all of them as tedious as the days are long in June, when a destruction of them, as they were paid into the State Treasury, .would have been simple and etlicient. He never vetoed a bill that took money out of the treasury, but inva riably approved of all such bills. We might refer to other official acts of Governor Bigler that operated strongly against him, but those mentioned were alone sufficient to bring about the change in Berks county. Governor Big ler was lor and against a prohibatory liquor law, and w hen inthe northern part of the State, he was opposed to that part of the Nebraska bill that destroyed the Missouri Compromise: in other places, he took nefther side of the question. - We did not believe that Governor Bigler could be re-elected, and therefore our paper opposed his nomination tor a second term, and advocated the nomination of a new mau. ' We believe that the Democracy ol'Berks county deserved a new man, and still believe that with a new man the result in this county would have been dilferent. As it is, let others take warning by the fate of Bigler. First, let every one be candid and opn, and not prom ise all things to all men, and be for one thing here, and another there, and smction no un necessary expenditure of the public money, a:id above all let no one boast that he under stands the financial affairs of the Common wealth and can so administer them as to prove beueficialto the people, without, at the same time, reducing the State tax. Objections to the rcnomination of President Pierce exist, as strong as those against Gov. Bigler. We are opposed to his renominatio!i, and in due time give our reasons, and be ready at any time to discuss tho question with the Custom House press, or any other paper that the administration may buy up lor the. purpose. We consider it tar better to begin in time and prevent a nomination, than to forbear when defeat is as probable as to be almost certain. MORE OF THE REASONS. Te Harrisburg Union, pays the following compliment to the rcnnsylvanian, and gives another reason for the defeat of Bigler. That extensive gas macuiactory, the Penn sy Iranian, has been doing an unprecedented business for two months past ; but the light it shed aoroad his been entirely disproportionate to tiie number of cubic yards discharged. Col umn upon column of editorial is dashed off, with the speed of electricity ; the lines roll, tumble, and swell along, whirling and frothing its they go, "full of sound and lury;". but when calmly - read and digested, they are found to 'siguify nothing. ' In fact, the broad columns of original matter which daily make their appear ance in that journal, are as destitute of ideas as the desert of Sihar i is ol verdure. If intellect could be measured by volubility of language by a diarrhua of words the Pennsylvanian. would, unquestionably; istind at the head of the democratic press, and Col. John W. For ney would be somebody ; but as it requires something more than an aptness for black guardism and a command of language, to make a great journal or a great man, they must be content to occupy -the positions, re spectively, which the almost universal senti- meutof the country has assigned them. In Forney 's hands the l-mnaylva-.iicn is a mere grinding niacjiine, in which he prepares fodder for himself and friends, with ''the addi tion of a 2!'h" seatterer, designed to soil the reputations of honorable men, w ho would con sider themselves deliied by his friendship, per sonal or political. . Hanging on the skirts of gr-Jiter men, w'uose. sense of m;ral propriety is not very exalted, by pandering to their weak nesses and vices, he has managed to rise to a position which he disgraces, and to the exer cise of an influence iu cert.tin quarters, w hich is detrimental to the character and interests of the party and the conutry. To the impertinent interference of this man and Judge Campbell m.the political atTairs of. this .folate, through' their satellites in different quarters, we are mainly indebted for the disastrous results of the late election. ' ' The late venerated Dr. Sharp (himself an Englishman,) was reported to have made the following remark, during his last and only vis it to his native country, to some one who spoke slightingly of the statesmanship of . America: "If you can jtoint m-t a. succession of as talented and virtuous Sovereigns of England as you find in the eleven men Avho have filled consecutively the Presidential chair of the United States, then I will yield." There was no reply to this. i (!nnjriirjf.iT''rit tur? Ta Tnl1iwV -..V. . ; Ihe aluiicy Luminary statea that a jinenwind accompanied, by. a delegation of jcitizena of that borough IlagheMjlle, and Jitney Creek oh the evening after theieloetlon, paid a '. visit to Milton, lor the ; purpose of congratulating Judge 1'ollock upon the renal t of .the - late election. Quite a large and enthusiastic"con course of the people of Milton gree.ted the ar rival of the visitors. At 8 o'clock the com pany repaird to the residence of Judge Pol lock, where they were received by ttie Gov ernor elect in a chaste and appropriate address. the appearance ol Judge Pollock was greeted by three spontaneous, hearty cheeis by the was altogether impromptu, and unexpectedly called forth, yet the Lnminaty says it had nev er listened to one of a similar nature breathing more geneious and noble reference to the vic tory achieved and the opposition vanquished, lie said he congratulated those who now ap peared before bim,and. the people of Penn sylvania, upon the result achieved Ly them the people. We had just come" out ot a evil contest, peculiar in jts prosecution and its re sults, to our own land and her glorious insti tutions. , The people-of Pennsylvania, -exsrei--siiig the right to decide upnjireat and. mo mentous priric'p'os involved in the late elec tion, had given an; expression of their senti ments through the "ballot i.ox' and a majori ty had declared himself to be their choice. It was not the m.in when the people chose or rejected, but th2 piin-ij let which they advo cated aud sustained, lie wished it to b re membered, that, although he was now , and had been identified with a Whig p trty. yet he did not claim his election ;n a Whig victory, nor did his Whig friends 'deenl' it ' such," bul'tti.t it was emphatically a victory of the ' pecf-lc' ov'-v the advocates tl principle which they could not smction or support. To.. all alike Whig.s and Democrats, the victory was to be sc.-it.el as me rcsua 01 ineir own nanus, in speaking of Gov. Bigler . he said, in substance. " "In reference to my opponent in the canvass.. I urn proud. to call Gov. Bigler my person i! friend, Wc"have - been since tho commencement of the contest, and are now on terms' of- intimate and pie is ant personal friendship, no matter how widely we may differ in our political view s and opinions. No act of mine shall wantonly disturb that relativnship.' - He siid he had been charged with being proscriptive in his religious opinions. So far from being so, he, aclvuowledged.no right in one man todictite to anotherwhat should not be his belief or ruolj of worship. IIoMiiig religion a sacred th.'n r' a:d- cla'tr.ivg the pnv.legc of Worshiping God according -to the dictates of his own conscience ha, grinted the s inie right to every living being. Believing the Constitution of our country sufficient to guard an 1 protect the rights and privileges A all, he des.red thit all might receive the- b ne fits of its wi.-,e provisions ai a: cemmon Id s sing. He. paid a:i eloquent tribute to the in telligence and patriotism ot the ' people i?i their repudiation of the iniquitous Nebraska bill, and the .attempt to perpetuate the cause of slaverv in our land, by Congress", nil legis lation, and s lid that freemen even, where re volved at the idea of extending and perpetua ting oppression, and that in the trial hour, the people true to their own instincts and the les sons taught by their fathers, would be found on the side of liberty. In conclusion, " he thanked the' people ot Lycoming county- for the renewed expression of their regard, ; at tested by a in 'jority iu his f ivor in the strong hold of the opposition, and the presence of the delegation before him.

Are we to believe that the Washington d.ion, the Richmond En quirer, the Albany .fz-gnt. and other papers of their class, are better exponents of popular feeling than the people themselves ? Cannot a man who attends t honest .business, draw his own conclusion, and deposit his ballot ac cording toll. a own convictions of rijrht. see r with his own eyes as well as the "scurvy pub lications we iook only through the '.glass eyes" of prejudice and partizan proscription? We believe tl.e people are never wrong.- Van Bcre.v insulted them by ni pealing to their "sober second thought," and he has ever since beeu a doomed . man! So. will it always be with those who' dare offer resistance to the voice of the ballot-box on the flimsey pretext so subversive of every- democratic principal that it was uot fairly or honestly, expressed, or was ignorently spoken. If the will Of the majority, expressed in aconst:tr.tonal manner, is to be lightly treated and derid-jd upon snch shallow grounds, our rcpul lie is no tetterthan an oligarchy under thn control of some dozens of hungary leeches whostick like barrucles to the ship of state,, and not like to be scraped nflf. n-hn ih nl.1 v.-l lc : r..1,l...l i...'.t., people' : : " .- v.... 1 1 '.. , ' Gea.

So gross ly did he outrage public oiuiou, at every pub lic meeting he attended, in both Cumberland and Perry counties, by his offensive disparage ment of American citizens, that his insulted auditors could not. restrain their expressions of indignation. To 'none wore than himself, in fact, do we owe the thorough rousing of that deef American feeling which,1 by the voice of its Omnipotent w ill, has swept him and his co lilforers into political oblivion. His over throw is one to .be remembered by political demagogues forever. i?wn. - -' : : Ano her.A fjl ihip x: eak. ... The - high-pressure steamship Nebraska, Caj,t. Pierce, S. A. Dor.glas.
