The Bishop ha.l commended the doctrines and temper of that paper ; the signers to the protest he held respectfully diasented from that opinion.

The Very Last Duel of all. Juhn Mungoand Theopolutj Boon, two strap ping- nrjjropF, undertook on Tuesday afternoon, taseltle anafbiirof honor in the fashionable way, by a report to the Jmllo. Boon was- the challenger, and of course Mungo had a pre Ecnpuve rigni 10 we cnotce 01 weapon, lieinf of the etirrier'u opinion that there is 'nothing like leather," he chose emehides. The paitics met with their seconds in an open lot near the junction of B.oad and South streets. Boon's second objected to Alungo's pants which wero made of thick kersey, and moreover were pla ted or patched in a way that made them as oh durate as the hide of a rhinoceros; whereas Boon's inferior person was covered merely with a thin pair of drillings. As it was found im possible to reduce the two antagonists to equal Urine by getting another pair ol pants to match either Boon's or MungoV, one of the seconds Euggcfted that they thould fight anna culottes; a proposition which met with iti it-ediiite favor, and both chivaliic grntleincn forthwith strip ped for the cotitcet. At the concerted ignnl the fight commenced, and it was ft-arful to see how the instruments of flagellation were plied by both combatants. Boon keeps a school for young gentlemen of color ; Mtingo is a drayman; both were versed in the Hogging business, therefore, and made every stroke teJI. Twenty or thirty lashes were given on each side, when Mungo luid in such a scorcher that Biton could stand it no loneer, but ingloriottBly fiVH, the vic tor hard slier him. Three times) they circled the lot like Ht ctor and Achilles around the wall of Troy, w hen the vanquished Boon jumped the fence and flew at full speed down Broad street towards the city, the conqueror close at his heels, plying the lash moat industriously. Two 6uch opparitions in such ungraceful dishabille, naturally attracted much notice, and finally a police officer took the further wtttement of the dispute into hit own hands, stopped both fiipi- live and pursuer, made them return to the field of battle, resume their unmentionables, and then conducted them to a place where much hot blood ia regularly coolod down. On hear ing the statements of the facts yesterday morn ing, the Mayer ordered the two duellists to find their bail for their better behaviour. Ne verthfclefs, their selection of weapons will fur- nibh a good hint to other brave youths who have a serious rpanel to dispose of. Evening Mercury. Novrx Mode or Eva.ci.vo me Law.

They have lost all confidence in him, and would hardly be lieve him when he told the truth.

Yet these fellows call themselves democrats, and have the impudence to cll on real democrats to help them bri sk down the democratic party. rXj" Who is Wm. Forsythe, that he should be permitted to break down the tirket which be him self helped to form, and which he publicly pledged himself to support t Thia question shoulJ be re eotved in the minJ of every democrat, who is really a democrat in principle. Does any one suppose that Forsythe carea any thing for tho party to which he profetsti to belting ts it not aa evident aa the un at noonday, that all he circa for. is, to get him self, or his peculiar friends into office 1 Does anv one suppose that he would have deser'ed from the ranks of the fsderal party, which hia own friends acknowledge he did, if it waa not lor the aake of of fice ? If Mr. Forsythe's eopv.'raion to democracy, hid been re-al, he would have shotvn it by hia con duct, which should hive been a disposition on his part to decline, rather than seek office. But no sootier had Mr. Forsythe pushed himself into the ranks of tbe party, than wc see bi n push ng bim. self forward as a candidate for office, and when he finds he cannot succeed, he is the fir.t man to offer himself aa a volunteer candidate, to break down tlx ticket. I-t it not an insult to the ilemocra:i.' party, to offer them audi a man as a candidate to breakdown the regularly fortn-d tick't, a ticket too, that every hoi.estjnd honorable man acknowledges, was aa fairlv formed as ni y ticket that was ever offered to the pi opto of ibis county? Can any honest di-iuferetcd democrat support such .1 man, when they are made acquainted with all these facts? We think not, and tbu result of tho election, on Tuesday next, will show these office hunting pa lent democrats that the pcoplo know them too well to suppurt them. The Reason Why. The people generally were, for some time, at a lose to know why Wm. Fur-ythe was su anxiaua to be e'ectrd to the Legislature why it was that certain persona from iho uppr end of the coumy, between whom snd Wm. Forsythe there had here tofore existed a deadly political animosity, we e apen ling their lime ami money in traveling the county to advocate his election; and why, loo, For. sythe w as spending Ai oifrt money so freely in hire- ing other to ride through the county ! ! But the whole matter is now explained. ''The thing's out." Msny a fortune ties been made by the formation of new counties, and a few town lots will fully in demnify a representative for the trouble and ex pense of hia election. No Division o !ltv County. The sttenipt to dismember this county by ihe for mation ot a new county, meet with no fav.ii from a large majority of the people. On this sid of the Susquehanna it has cused a general burat of in dignation. The people w ill not submit to be sad. died with additional laxea fir the benefit of a few speculator. There is no nece-aity fur a new coun ty. Oi l Noilliuml erland baa been cut and carved enough, in all conscience, already. Il is time that ibis qui a ion should be settled forever, and, if we are not mistaken In tbe a'gn nf the times, the peo. pie will effectually settle it next Tuesday, by over whelming Forsythe, ihe diciiion candid ite, with uch a defeat aa will teach speculators and disor. ganiiers a useful lesson.

E. Y. Bright, on the olher herd, bss alwsys been an open and avowed fiiend of the Tar.ff, and im fovor of protecting the inte- rcots of tbe farmer, mechanic aud laborer. A Sign.

In Shamokin, Gossler tuld one vt Forsythe's own friends, that they would give Billy a majority of 1000 on their aide of the river.

In this place, he told an Anguiita farmer, that B.lly wou'd have 1500 majority on that aide, and was again laughed at, and told, that that waa just two hundred more than they ever polled.

A Shocking Mnrder In fteltlmore. A revolting murder waa committed in Baltimore, early on Thursday evening, in one of the most pub lie streets of that city, on the persan of Miss Ma ria Burk, a young woman of irreproachable charac ter. Tbe deceased, aged about twenty-eight years, left the dwelling of Mr. Poultney, m Mulbury 1., to bting home Mr. Moale's daughter who had been spending the afternoon at Mr. P's. When in Mul bury street, only a few yards east of Poultney's house, a man suddenly approached her, and aJ dressed some insulting language to her. Alarmed at being thus accosted by a stranger at night, aha shrunk back, and inquired of him what he wanted with her. To thia the ruffian replied that he pur. posed murdering her. Then, stepping behind her, he atruck her a powerful blow with a club on the right side uf the head, which felled her to the ground, and fled. In her f ill she injured herself aeverly on the left side of her head and neck. Aa soon aa she recovered sufficiently, she crawled to Mr. Poult, ney's steps and rang the I ell. She wast-ken in ly the servants. Slie lingered in great agony un til four o'clock next morning, when ahe died.
