THE DOLLAR.
Clearfield, Pa., Oct. 26, 1849.
The Rail Road to the Pacific.
A convention composed of representa
tives 'from most of the States of the Union
Was held at St. Louis last week for the
purpose of promoting the great enterprize
of the age, that of constructing a railroad
neross the American continent to the
'shores ofthe Pacific. The convention; f
ter a session of four days, adjoUrned to
meet at an curly day in Philadelphia.—
Many able addresses and labored state
ments, showing the feasibility of the work
was presented to the delegates. From one
of the statements, in which a calculation
of time and distance of travel is made, we
learn that, allowing the road to be com
pleted, a person could start from N. York,
and in seven days go to digging the "evil"
in California; or it' he wished to take a
trip down to China, instead of being coop-'
ed up in a ship for from five to seven
months, he could buy his through ticket in
New York and in twenty-seven days he
could take his supper on firs/ dog among
the Celestials.
What a nation we are! But what a na
tion we will be then! Only think of it.—
Our empire stretching (when we get Can
ada) three thousand miles each way, all
rolled up into a heap by means of the
magnetic telegraph, and the manufactures
of the North and East, the cotton, sugar,
'rke, &c., of the South, the Agricultural
products of the 'West, and the gold of the
Pacific, all transported and exchanged
within a:week. Truly, this is the age or!
progress.
Sir John Franklin's Expedition
Simultaneous with the announcemcnt
among the foreign news from England of,
infor ation . from the long lost expedition
01
Joh klin, we have a similar'
announceme rOM New London, a whale
fishing"-port in Connecticut. The report
is, that the vessels composing the expedi- !
tion were ice-bound in one of the Straits,
or inland seas of the North-Atlantic, and
hud been there for two seasons. The ex
',edition left England some four years ago,
with p4visions for a four years' voyage.
No tidings having been heard from it at
the end ofthree yesirs—the period at which
Franklin expected to return—the British
government sent out several expeditions
in search of Franklin, some of whom re- I
. Nun
' ed without having made any discov
. . 1
cry,4ll - givrng the least hope that the lost 1
4vOula s ever be restored to the world. In
thet, all reasonable hope of the recovery of
those composing the expedition had well'
nigh vanished, and those who have recent
ly
lien sent out, went only to search for'
some trace of Franklin's expedition, some
memorial that would give grounds' for rest- I
sonable conjecture as to its fate. Frank- ,
- lin was an old find experienced navigator
—this being his second or third • expedi
tion to the Arctic Ocean in the effort to!
. discover a northwest passage to the Pacif- I
-,. . Should this report be correct, and
'ranklin, after a four years cruise among
the seas and islands of the frozen regions
of the North, be restored to his family, his
country, and to the world, much, very
much that is now unknown, may be bro't
to light.
Another War in Prospect,
By the late Foreign news, which-ve.
publish this week, it will be seen that there
is just now a strong probability of a gen
eral war in Europe—for a war betweenl
combined France and England in digence
of the Sultan, against Russia and Austria,
would be nothing less than a general war.
Such a struggle would undoubtedly end in
the total and entire regeneration of the
European world—the bringing forth and
restoration of man to his natural rights.
But to make the reformation perfect,
and to bring it to perfection at the earliest
possible period, the United States should I
have a band in it. Shaw ? What has
our government been doing for`the last
year, during these death-struggles for free
dom in Europe? Have our representa
tives been faithfully reflecting the true
Character of our government and institu
tions, and seconding the efforts . of the hu
man race struggling to be free? If they
have not, then we are not fulfilling our
mission, and as a just retribution, instead
of being the "model republic," and the 1
freest nation on earth, we may live to see
the day when other States and people will
be more free than we. • . 1
The Difficulty with France.
'Just as the steamer Niagara left Liver
pool, it was announced by telegraph from
Paris, that the French Government entire
ly disavows the conduct of M. Poussin,
French Minister at Washington, and
s appointed M. Bois Lacompt as Minis
ter
to the United States, Thus this atiiiir,
Aliich some newspaper editors magnified
into unavoidable war, bide fair to end in
smoke.

Difficulty at St. Lonis--Senator Benton.
The Washington Union of Tuesday
last contains a telegraphic despatch from
St. Louis, dated the 19th inst., which says
"Senator Benton addressed an immense
mass meeting last evening, on the subject
of his instructions from the legislature.—
He refused to answer questions respectfUlly
put, in relation to his future action in Con
gress on the subject of slavery.
' "Another large meeting, held in the ro
tunda, passed resolutions strongly con
demnatory of Mr. Benton. Much disorder
prevailed, and the police were called in,
there being quite a disturbance."

express our admiration of the embellish

"Household Treasures," (the latter taken
from a painting by LANnstmn of Queen

have yet seen.

Special Telegraph to the Pettlittylvoninn
HAnnisnuito, Oct. 19
Jonathan Gibbons Mills, notorious as
being the seducer of-three sisters of one
family, residing in this town, • was this
morning convicted on the first indictment
for seduction, The youngest of the three
being at the time of seduction barely six
teen. Mills's counsel moved an arrest of
judgment, and for a new trial. Four
days were consumed in the trial of this
case. Four other indictments are yet
hanging over the head of this man Mills,
two for attempts to procure abortion, and
two for other crimes too indelicate to men
tion.

We learn from the Minnesota Pioneer,
of the 27th ult., that Col. Woods, who
had just returned from his expedition to
the British line, established a military post
at Pembina, and at. one other locality cast
of that point. Col. Woods left Fort Snell
ing early in June, having in his company
Capt. Pope, U. S. Engineer, under direc
tions to report the most feasible road to
I Pembina, which is situated on the line,
and to describe the general character of
, the country. The journey was very toil
some, for most of the way through mud,
and over streams, many of which they
crossed by means of pontoon wagons, ar
riving at their destination on the Ist of
August. The post at Pembina was mere
ly designated by marks. When Colonel
; Woods arrived, the Spring floods had not
then subsided, and the inhabitant's had
fled to the Highlands to escape from the
inundation of the plains of Red river.—
' Later in the
s season, the country is dry,
S fertile and beautiful. The moral charac
ter of the people who are worthy half- ',
breeds, is spoken of with respect. They i
' devote more of their time to agriculture!
than the chase. Good garden vegetables I
Were procured at Pembina, and choice I
' beef was worth twenty-five cents. Grass r '
and the small grains flourish well. Indianl
corn is an uncertain crop. On account ofi
the early Snows, n body of nutrtious grass ;
is preserved, upon which the horses sub-1
' sist well all winter. About 250 miles
{.from St. Paul, some small herds of bull-!
to were seen. About a dozen voyageurs '
came in from Pembina, with the eApedi-1
tion, and had a long talk with Gov. Ram- s
soy. They complained of aggression on!
11.11eir rights by persons on the British side
of the line—stated that certain obnoxious
men had been appointed chiefs over them '
I —that they were restricted in their hun-1
Iting privileges—and demanded protection i
'as AtiVricans.' Gov. Ramsey assured!
them of the ability of the U. S. Govern-1
ment to protect all her citizens, and that;
he would represent their case at Washing.
'ton. With this assurance they were sat
isfied. Lieut. Paige, who had been doing!
duty as Quartermaster and Commissary, I
at Fop Snelling, left on the 27th to join'
hip iogiment in California. Gov. Chain-!
lta arrived at St. Paul on the 28th, tol
on in the commission with Gov. Ramsey,
to negotiate a treaty with the Sioux Indians.
I Two bands of-the Indians were at Fort
l Smiling on the ?2d, to receivo their a nnu- s
ities. The other bands •-were to be paid S
at a latter day--some, this month.
A Sail Alliiir.—Our readers will re-,
member that some months since the barn
of Mr. Henry Black jr.. Of. , Wolfcrcck
b--
township was burnt and 41dttly itaer one ,
of his'Stacks of g , ~hok tlici:work of
tin incendiary. Si : lthat4le, with others,
'have kept a pieqy strict' watch about his
premises, which resulted in the discovery
of the guilty person,' one night last week,
while in the act of, firing another of his
stacks--and who proved to be none oth
er than Mrs. Black, his own aunt! She
was arrested, and the next day lodged in
the jail of the county ; but has since been
bailed by her friends in the sum of $2,000.
The csuses whichliave led to this most
unfortunate afliiir, arc briefly as follows:
Mr. JoSeph Black, the husband of Mrs.
Black, died a few years since, and left his
property to his nephw, Henry Black jr.,
(whom he had adopted, not having any
children of his own,) with the agreement
that he shonld support his widow during
her lifetime. Mrs. Black we undistand
has felt 'much dissatisfaction with this ar
rangement, has lived elswhere part of her
time ; but for some time past has resided
in a house on the same farm with her
nephew, erected for her accommodation-
She appears to have brooded the subject
until, unfortunately, her feeling drove her
to the commission of those most fearful
Crimes.

RUSSIA YND TURKEY—Three times du
ring the present century the Turks and
Russians have been at war, andeach time
the former have been beaten. The last
was in 1820, when a powerful Russian
army penetrated the hitherto considered
impregnable mountainous barriers of the
Balkan, captured Adrianople, and dictated
ignominious terms of peace under the
walls of Constantinople. It remains to
bo seen whether the Turks will have again
to meet their terrible northern adversaries
for refusing to deliver up the Hungarian
refugees—but with France and England
to back her, they have not so much to
fear as formerly.
A boy tinted Franklin Boats, aged a
bout 17 years, an apprentice to the black
smith business, on Sunday morning last,
fell some eighty-seven feet from the top of
a chesnut tree to the ground, breaking his
.neck, one shoulder blade, all his ribs on
one side, an arm, and also one leg in two
or three places,--He was seen to gasp
twice after the fall and then expired.—
His parents live a short distance peyond
Franklin, Venungo county. He was ad
monished that morning by his kind mas
ter to refrain from such conduct on dip'
day : but, alas, in disobeying he has added
another meloncholy warninff a to the reck
less Sabbath breaker l—Clarion Dent.
