direction. The bnundury line between the

rial (xiiiitc, niBLe by Thomas J. Taylor:
"The house of Harrison Crawford, of Han
cock, was robbed on Friday night, the 3d itift.,
of every thing it contained. InCurinHtion of
this robbery coming to t1te eoranf Gen. Hardin,
he despatched a poese nf twenty men to recover
the property, and if possible to secure the thei

Voo about noon, on Tuesday, the Ttli, and im
mediately searched the house of a Mormon
brother, Duniel Smith, and found there various
items ot property identified by Mr. Crawford as
his own; they tbeo searched the liouse of one
Walton, another Saint, where more of Craw

they went It? the house offcrother Benjamin
Gardner, where they found bed, boding, harness,

ford. While they were aearchuig the last
house, two of the robbert sprung through a win
dow and made tracks for the eentre of the ci'y.
Col. Warren' posse pursued, and after running
the robbera down, secured them. They (the
prisoners) were taken to Carthage and placed
in jail their names are Smith and Gardner."

The Danville Kail Road Convrnlion.
We, among a number of delegates from this
place, attended a large and respectable conven
tion, held at Danville on Wednesday last, the
29th ult. The meeting was call, d to order by the
appointment of Cliarles Frailey, of Schuylkill.
as President, and V. Best and E. V. Jackson, ns
Secretaries. It was soon evident that difficul
ties would occur in the proceedings, as some of
the Danville delegates had conjured tip fancies,
that the Siinhury delegates had ronie tip to entrap
them or probably to effect another removal, and
therefore, upon mere suspicion, resolved to op
pose every thine; that was aid or done by any of
the Sunbury delegation, however reasonable it
might be in itself.
A set speech was made, abtisiiie our quiet town
in no measured terms, which left anything but a
(averable impression of the liberality of the spea
ker, upon distant members of the convention.
C. W. llegins, Esq., repelled these imputation
in a reply that will not, we think, be readily for
gotten. The greatest difficulty occurred upon the mo
tion of Mr. Cooper for the appointment of a com
mittee to report resolutions for the convention,
to which Mr. Hegins offered an amendment ask
ing that separate committees be appointed to re-
port in favor of a Rail Road from Danville to
rottsville, by way of Sharnokin, also one in fa
vorof a Rail Road communication from Philadel
phia to Erie by the valley of the West Rrantb of
the Soscpirhanna, and also one in favor of the
Williamsport and Elmira Rail Road, with power
to report on other subjects. This amendment
was, however, voted down, and a committee of
ten appointed by the Chair, who reported next
morning, resolutions in favor of a Rail Road from
Danville to Potts-viMe by way of Shamokin, a
Rail Road from Danville to Wiltiamsport. and
also in favor of a Rail Road from Philadelphia to
Erie, by the way of either Danville or Sunbury,
as might be deemed most expedient. This was
all that the Sunbury delegation had asked lor,
and had the effect to dissipate the wrath of
our Danville menus witn ne mists nejore
the next morning's sun, when the reolutions
were unanimously adopted. Some further busi
ness was transacted which weareobliged toon.it
until next week, when a full report of the pro
ceedings will be published.
We forbear to notice the illiberality and want
of courtesy of some ef our Danville friends to
wards the Sunbury delegation, ir , as well as out
of the convention. Such conduct can do no good
and in the end is always sure to recoil upon the
aggressor.
C7Tni! Senator i at. CaspioaTis at uoxe
A writer in the "Gazette" previous to the eW
tion. referred to the vote at the election of dele
gates, to show Major Dewart's unpopularity at
home. We now refer to the result of the late c
lection, to show how both candidates stand in
their immediate neighborhood.
In Ilarrisburg there were 917 votes polled, of
which Major Foster received Ai'i and Major
Dewart 113.
In Sunbury and Augusta township, composing
one district, there were SU1 votes polled, of
which Major Dewart received 409; and Major
Foster 33! Comment is unnecessary.

Pennsylvania Interest.
The following letter is from the most respect
able source, and was addressed to an important
firm in this city, that sought correct information.
We may add that many of the counties, most a
ble and willing to pay their quota, are in reserve
for the February interest. And favorable to the
hopes of every true hearted Pennsylanian. the
hopes of paying the interest on our State debt, is
the news from abroad, that the produce of our
farms is to be in demand. When England has I
run the race of speculation into which she has
recently entered with regard to railroads, a race
that does not invoke quite so much exp-nditnre
as some think, she will be ready to turn her eye
towards Pennsylvania again with favor, towards
Pennsylvania redeemed, regenerated, disenthral
led. We copy the letter, however : V. S Gaz.
HAnBtsi.i Ro, Oct. 20, mi.V
Dear Sir : I bad a conversation this morning
with Treasurer Snowden. He tells me be has
no doubt of his ability to pay the interest on the
1st of February. He had on the 1st instant, two
hundred and forty thousand dollais in the trea
sury, available funds.
The Treasurer will address another circular to
the County Treasurers, urging them to be pre.
pared to remit by the members of the Legisla
ture on the 1st of January. Another considera
tion the Legislature will be in session a month
before the 1st of February, and should there be
a deficiency of two or three hundred thousand
dollars, they will make provision for supplying
it at all hazard. You may rely upon it, there is
A riXKO AND fN ALTIR ABI.K rl R51INA1 ION of
every individual in the community, that the in
terest shall be paid for the future. I don't enter
tain a doubt of the payment.
Respectfully, fce.

Tub Inland op St Donixoo A Washington
correspondent in the Journal of Commerce says,
the agent Mr. Calhoun, sent to St Domingo to
wards the close of the last administration, has
returned and made a voluminous and interesting
report, it is conjectured relates chiefly to the
Spanish portion of the island, and the situation
and prut-pects of the Dominicans; their war with
the Hay t lens; the policy of the English and French
Governments ill regaid to them, and to tha slave-
holding portion of West India Islands generally,
&. It has been supposed that the British Go
vernment, and perhaps the Goveinment of France
also, will take such a course as will aid the en
tire abolition of slavery in this island, and, in
deed, all the Spanish and French islands. The
subject is one of some interest to tba peopla of
the United States.

Rati natatt Iron, cite.
We learn from the luminary in the Boston Post
that Mr. Huoso the English Railway king, as he
is now styled, has, it appears, been buying up I
all the railroad iron he could get hold of either
for cash or engaging to be made with intent to
monopolixa the article. About the 20th of Sep
tember he purchased 19,000 tons at 9 17s Cd a
9, and his operations had started the market so
that the latest quotation was XI 1 in Wales.
According to theN. Y. Tribune the value of
railroad" iron in Liverpool at the last advices was
12.0s or very nearly $00 per ton. with a pros
pect of going up, too. ' If we had continued to
import it free of duty," adds the Tribune, "and 1
thus largely increased the present and piospec- '
. : . . - .1 . I r... : 1 . .. : - 1 ! - . .
...r u, , ,ur i... ....en,8em lli.ll
uoubt that it would have been still higher? I
Yet at this price it can hardly be delivered in I
New York, freight and charger, paid, for less than '
S70 per ton, duty unpaid. Yet American Iron
masters, we learn, are contracting to deliver rail
road bars of excellent quality at 370 per ton; so
that at this moment our heavy dutyofS25 per
ton on this iron does not essentially if at all en
hance its price to the American consumer. And
the iron business is now receiving such a rapid
and general d-velopment among us that it is mor- i
ally certain that the price of all kinds will be i
gradually and signally reduced, without the aid !
of foreign competition, unless the demand for '
iron shall increase as rapidly as the supply,
which can hardly be possible. Who can doubt,
then, that it is the true policy of the country to
maintain the duty on Iron !"

an.i aiier me preseni monm. i
Mr. Pkam, of the Storkton arid Darlington Rail
way, has in contemplation a scheme to construct
a double track from Newcastle to London, for
the carriage of coals : and as the consumption of
that city is four millions of tons Annually, it is
expected that three fourths of that would b con
veyed by rail way. rather than by watr. as the
coals could be delivered in much better order.
Effect of tiir Tahh f It wi't hardly be
believed, it is certainly not generally known,
that while two years ago there were but two an
thracite iron furnaces in Pennsylvania, there are
now no less than tu-ely teven, in active operation,
consuming 500.000 tons of coal annually. Such
facts should be spread before the people as exten
sively as possible. It would be a curious inquiry
for some gentlemen having the facts at his com
mand, to ascertain the amount of labor employ
ed in these immense works, tracing that labor
through all its operations, the effects upon the
business of the neighborhoods where the ditT-r-
ent works are located, the immense advantage to !
the agricultural interest and the results to the
trade and commerce of the metropolis of the

The richest agricultural sections of the State
of New York have been diminished in population
since 1 fi 0, while that of the cities has increased.
This may partially result from the increase of
commerce and manufactures, but probably it is
in a greater degree to be ascribed to the infatu
ation which induce the mass of those who are
able to do so, to educate their children fur the
professions. How little do they know of the lot
to which they consign them! It has been esti

Tint aACKs. The match between Fashion and
Liatunah, which was to come off yesterday over
the Union course, was unexpectedly terminated
after the first heat in consequence of what is
termed 'an accident' to Liatunah. The spur of
the rider had severed a vein, from which the
blood flowed in such a stream as to form a pu.f
die of gore in a very short time, and covered his
boots and legs to a considerable extent. In con
sequence of this she was withdrawn having gi
ven Fashion a hard run, the four miles were
completed in 7m 35s., and Fashion only won by
a neck. Another race took place for a Jockey
Club puise ot 1 300. $50 to second horse two
mile heats. The entries were S. Laird's Stan
