united States Senator.
This question seems to be creating consid
erable excitement at Harrisburg, just new,
and throughout the. State. The election was
postponed until next Tuesday--Gen. CAME
acasr,, of Dauphin, the nominee of the so-cal
' led Americans, only failed of in election by
a few votes on Tuesday week last, arid doubt
less would have been elected if another bal
lot•had been taken: -•-
I " It' is useless . for the regular line Democracy
.toi,4oPe for, success, and with them it be
.comes a question of choice of men merely:
'We 'ObSesiiye that our Senator Col. CRESS
• :
wled tor Mr. CAMERON on the two ballot
tings had. In this; we , think he was' right,
and is sustained by the feelings of a majority
of the people of all parties in this.region.—:
As a, man,. whatever his enemies may say to
the contrary, Gen , . CAMERON is a gentleman
of ability,;noble and'kind hearted in his char•
acter• He has raised himself from the hum
ble station of a printer's boy, without any
of the adventitious aids of social accidents,
to the high position he occupies ; and no
man in Pen'nsylvania has done more to en
courage and assist young men by substantial
helps to.rise to usefulness in society than he:
As a Senator, although not a debator of emi
nence, his great industry, knowledge
and perseverence, made him amongst the
most influential members of that body, and
no one there succeeded in representing the
interests of his State, or the claims of her
children better than he.
As a choice, then, we cannot see what bet
ter course could be• adopted, than that done
by Mr. CRESSWELL. We cannot carry an
old line Democrat. It is the merest vagary
hOpe it, and no sensible man has any such
hope. It is riot even possible in the chapter
of accidents: And „what then ?- Throw
away abstractions, and elect a man who will
make a good Senator; and a gentleman whose
history, through unaided struggles from child
hood to age—from poverty and obscurity to
competence and fame, are the best commen
taries on the Democracy we profess.
g 'ALTOONA REGISTER AND RAILROAD JOITR
NAL.-TtliS is the name "of the new paper
jtist'commenced at Altoona by W. H. SNY
DER) a practical and . good, printer. The first
number is before us—is the size of the Globe
—and is as neat a weekly paper as there is
any published in the State. The "Rlgister"
is designed to be "an impartial vehicle of
general useful intelligence, local, foreign,
and domestic, avoiding partizan discussion,
as much as possible.". The editor, has our
best. wishes for abundant success.
U The official return of the special
election for Senator in Philadelphia county,
held on Tuesday of last week is as follows :
Henry C. Pratt, (K. N. Whig,) 15,876, J.
Murry Rush, (Democrat,) 13,893. We see
it stated that Mayor Conrad's hosts of police
officers. took- possession of each poll, and by
their disorderly conduct kept hundreds. of
Democrats from voting.
IMPORTANT FROM CUBA.--Havana dates to
the 15th inst., brings the intelligence that
the city is in a great EState of excitement.
New .military companies are 'forming, and
the whole Island is declared in a state of
siege and the ports in a state of blockade. A
proclamation has been made, ordering the en
listment of all volunteers- between the ages
of 15 'and 50, capable of bearing arms.
The Poor
To the Editor of the Globe :
'DEAR Sin :—Permit me to make a few
suggestions touching the wants of the poor
and.neetly - that maybe in this borough and
vicinity. That as the spiritual agents of the
Great Shepherd of us all are nourishing peni
tent believers with spiritual food—philan
thropists should not be remiss in endeavoring
to provide some'way to ameliorate suffering
humanity—although many may be unworthy
objects of charity—but that is not our busi
ness to judge. Our Heavenly Father letteth the
sun rise upon the just and the unjust, and to
rain upon the righteous and wicked. Would
it not be proper to call e public meeting at
•the'Town' Hall as early as convenient and af
ter," .deliberation upon the subject, devise
ways and means and appoint a committee of
two or more faithful agents, and after ascer
taining objects of charity, distribute at sta
ted times to the needy without distinction of
color, riarty'or 'Creed. , "ft might be the means
(through the interposition of Providence,) to
win many from the error of their ways, and
the:lirevention of crime,'which the inclem
ent-sea'son, and want of labor and high pri
ces, of provisions, - might induce. For if we
say to the naked.and hungry, be ye clothed
and - be ye fed, what availeth it, unless we
provide means.. May who are able, act
upon the principle of universal charity and
benevOlence.- - • D.
The Sunday Liquor Law.
The - fallowing is Mr. Foust's bill as it , pas
sed the House on Friday last, by a vote of 73
yeas - to 6-nays. -,Ttkere - is no doubt of the

The Know-Nothings defeated in Holli
daysburg.
We find the following letter in the Pitts
burg Daily Union, of Saturday :
HOLLIDAYSBURG, PA., Feb. 17, 1855.
Dear Union :-LOur borough election pas
sed off yesterday. The c'Cayennes" met at
the regular Whig head-quarters, on Saturday
evening last, and nominated what they were
pleased to call a regular Whig ticket. The
bait would not draw.
Those citizens, who are opposed to secret
societies for political purposes, met pursuant
to call at the Democratic head quarters, on
Wednesday night last, and placed in nomi
nation a full ticket—this interfered with the
plans of the "Cayennes." A special meet
ing of tbs. Council was then called, for Thurs
day night- 7 -they met at their council room,
seconil story "Odd Fellows Hall," formerly
"Sons of Temperance room," when it was
put to vote and carried, to place in nomina
tion anew ticket, and by this means deceive
those few Whigs who could not be deceived
by the sham _nominations made, the Saturday
previons = ("ft would not do, however, as
there are traitor's in all their councils.")—
They were sanguine of success offered to bet
high on the result, claimed three to one, &c.
The result shows quite a different calcula
tion, and that they realized their expectations
"over the left slightly." The regulars or old
liners have carried all the important officers
—Councilmen, school directors, Justices, &c.
The "Cayennes" have achieved a tremen
dous victory however, in the election of their
,candidate for constable by one vote. I un
derstand from undoubted authority that he is
an Irishman born. although "not a gentleman
from Ireland," unnaturalized, and of course
incapable of holding the high and responsi
ble office. I wish them joy of their bargain.

New. York Politics
- NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—The Know-Noth
ings who were elected to the Legislature, not
to vote for Seward, but who nevertheless
sold out," to thatAlistingnished demagogue,
aregetting pretty well roasted by their con-
stituents here. Mr. Leigh, the lending ad
vocate of the Main Liquor Law',it seems,
was one of the "traitors," of whom thereare
in all some thirty.. An indi g nation meeting,
to denounce them, was heath the Taberna
cle last night, and it is intended to burn the
whole party. in effigy, on Friday evening
next, in Madison Square.
Rev. Sam May,..who makes his boast of
cursing the Constitution every time he says
his prayers, delivers a lecture on Slavery at
the Broadway Tabernacle this .evening.—
Time was, when a New York public would
not have listened to such a scamp, but after
sending SeWard baCk to the Senate, and giv
ing up . the Capitol, to Fred Douglas, we are
ready for 'anything. •
133 Col. tLi SLIFER, the new• State Treas
urer oTPnnsytvania, was arrested at Potts
town, last week, on a charge ol • stealing a
valuable gold' watch; The Reading - Gazette
gives the following account of the arrest :
. , .
TEE STATE TREASURER ARRESTED !-A.
GOOD JoK.e.L-On Monday morning last an
affair occurred in the Railroad cars, while
stopping at Pottstown, which' is entirely too
good to be lost.'.llCappears that a short time
since, a person "Who lodged there over night
had carried: away with him a valuable gold
wp.tch,.' the_ property of another.. ,On tile
morning above named, as the paSsenger train
wag. passing throu . gh the town; b: person an
sWering the description of ,the .. .Ctilp - rit was
discevered,sitting in one Orthe cars by that
indefatigable officer M. B. Missimer. He
thereuPon imMediately arrested hiiii. The
gentleman remonstrated, but in .vain.—He
was . •talren 'to one of the hotels, where a
search was about being instituted, when some
one happening to drop in, recognized in the
supposed thief, our newly eltosen State
.Treas
urer, Mr. Slifer ! • It is 'needless to say,
that the officer was profuse in explanations
and apologies, which Mr. S. took in good
part, and consented to consider the arrest a
"good joke," although too practical and
personal to bear repetition.
GEN. SCOTT'S RECEPTION OF EIS NEW
HONOR,—The passage of the joint resolu
tion, authorizing the creation of the office of
Lieut. General, as a special honor to Major-
General Scott, has been the cause of great re
joicing. Col. Preston's house is crowded
to-night by the friends of the commander
in-Chief. Gen. Shields and Judge Douglas
both electioneered in the House in favor of
conferring the title. Upon ascertaining the
vote, Col. Preston drove to the War-Depart
ment, where he announced the intelligence
to Scott. The General dropped his head for
a moment, arid tears were seen trinkling
down his cheek. His reply was worthy of
his fame ; and was precisely as follows:
"Let no man say, hereafter, that his coun
try is ungrateful to one who has served her
faithfully.
The bill has beer approved by President
Pierce, and gives Gen. Scott some $40,000
back pay, and about $lO.OOO per annum here
after. •
G GP' One day last week a lady, with an in
fant child in her arms, ; and little boy of
some half doien years by her side, took her
seat in the cars at Elmira, N. Y. add paid
tor the fair through to Canandaigue. As the
train approached the latter place ,the conduc
discovered that she was weeping, and imme
diately inquired the cause of her distress, but
received ne reply. Soon, however, perceiv
ing that the little boy was also weeping, he
inquired again the cause of their trouble.—
Unable to speak, the lady could only point
to her infant child—dead in its mother's
arms.
D The Lebannon Courier, heretofore a
rampant Whig Know-Nothing sheet in speak
ing of secret political organizations uses the
following sensible language:
"For our part, we have no sympathy for
secrecy in political action ; and we hope soon
to see the day when all secret political
societies will be disbanded, and the motives
arid principles of every party hung on the
banner on the outer wall, challenging the
public scrutiny and judgment."
COUNTERFEITING ON A LARGE SCALE IN
OHIO.—IMPLICATION OF WE'LL KNOWN ClTl-
ZENS.—A ' regular counterfeiting league, com
posed of gangs located in Cleveland, Cincin
nati and other portions of Ohio, has been
discovered by the Police, through a stool
pigeon. Many well known citizens, inclu
ding three police officers, are said to be active
ly engaged in the nefarious business. The
Cincinnati Gazette, of the 14th says :
The names of the gangs and their princi
pal places or congregation were- named, as
well as the method of obtaining "covey,"
and becoming an adept in this species of
crime. It was stated that gangs were in
Columbus and tandusky, in both of which
cities arrests, upon information received from
Young, have been made, and the parties
committed to jail, for their final trial in the
z,riminal courts. In this city, no arrests
have yet been made, but we learn that the
necessary steps are being taking to make an
extensive haul. Officer Williams and- his
"stool pigeon, " upon what had been told
the latter by oung and others, went to an
old wooden water station house on the L.
M. Railroad, this side of Polktown, and
there found boxed up sheets of signed and
unsigned counterfeit bills, cut and uncut, of
denominations ranging from $1 to $2O, on
the Northern Bank of Kentuckey, State Bank
of Ohio, Bank of Kentuckey, State Bank of
Indiana, and Batiks in New York, Pennsyl
vania, Tennessee and Virginia. The total
amount found was not far from thirty thou
sand dollars. There was also two plates to
print the sl . 's Northren Bank of Ken tuckey,
and the 2's, State Bank of Indiana. The
money is well executed and well calculated
tq deceive.
REVIVALS.-A revival has commenced in
the M. E. ,Church of this place.
Several persons were baptized by . the Rev.
Still ; on Sunday last. -
SUICIDE INSTIGATED BY WANT.—An un
known middle aged man committed suicide
in Pphiladelphia on Monday evening last.—
His pockets contained nothing but the fol
lowing :
'PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 17th, 1855.
This is for the purpose of informing the
person or persons who may find my body that
T, Henry Hatham Barclay, belonging to the ci
ty of New York have committed suicide, by ta

INDIANA LEGISLATURE.-AS bill has been
introduced in the Senate of Indiana to break

It declares it a conspiracy for person to band
themselves under solemn oaths for the pur
pose of depriving any citizens of the State of
