We have at last succeeded waking up the hypocritical addle-heads of the llienting don Journal, and promise to keep them awake for some time. To show the . consistency of the Journal we will give a fell/ extracts from -that gaper; Betore the - late General eleCtion the .I:our itat gav_its opinion of Know i iNtothingism in .thefollow.ing words : • 'its it not brit' a plan for - office hiinters to raise thernselve;s to posts which have long eln decl:th'eir grasp ? Is it not a secret. as'socia tion' avowedly for political purposes, AND TX-h.REPO-RD WORSE THAN ANY OF THE SE CRET ASSOCX,ATIO,NS IN THEM WORST DAYS'?" After the result of the — election became known we find the following in tile:Journal: "We have the proud gratification of an nouncing to our friends a glorious triumph of American (Know Nothing) principles thro% out ,theState.?' With the.permission of the hiznimal of the Journal, We will state how it happened that he got himself into such a split :stick. He was very anxious to be with the big crowd of his party, but his: ears being in the tray he - could not see to the right and left at the same time, so he informed his friends in, Shirleys bUrg that as:soon as he could discover which' faction of his .party was the strongeSt the Journal would speak out in favor of the most nurrierons, faction. As the Whig party had ..been in the majority in the county for years, n old,liner suggested to the hanimal that it must continue so, and straightway he gives his opinion of Know Nothingism as quoted above. But the result of the election showed that the Whig party was no where, and pres to, change ! the Journal was the organ of "a secret association avoyedly for political purpo ses, and therefore . Wo.B.SE, - than any' .of the secret associations in their WORST days." But again. In the Journal of last weeCive . find the' following truly rich .moisel of the Journal's hypocricy, to say nothing of its on sistency: - -Speaking of the Know Not hity , s' "supple jack" refusing to,.acknowlrdge the' Globe the organ of his party, the Journal says: "Such being the case, we deem it superflu ous to notice anything which it (the ,Globe) might see- proper, to say, if We did not think it to he a duty we owe to the great and glori ous Whig party, the principles of which we hold dearer than life; and to whose interests we would be willing to sacrifice our.all !" Is the "great and glorious Whig . part)" and Know Nothingisrri one 'in principles as the great ;Whig, patty "used to was'!" Have the old line Whigs of Huntingdon county who refuse to join "a secret association Worse than any of - the secret associations in their worst days," got an organ in the county ? That is the question for the Journal and , the Whigs to answer. Some few individuals, including the addle-headed editors 'of the Huntingdon Jour nal, who are employed to do the dirty' work for the bigoted leaders of the Know Nothing • Order, have lately been very industriously engaged in circulating - that we-are a Catholic. We can inform all who have any desire to kricrw, that we never have been a Catholic— neither are we a hypocritical professor in any other church. Can the addle-heads of the Journal, and others who appear to be peculi arly interested, Mak an honest community in the lace and say the same 1 We have a friendly feeling towards Chris tians of all churches,—we are tolerant in our opinions—and we believe a good Catholic must be an honest man, and as such, if he be an American citizen, is entitled to the enjoy • rent of the same privileges claimed by wor shippers In any other church. In this county, many of its oldest citizens are Catholics, and they have always beer. considered as respec t *table and as good citizens as their neighbors. '" s ` A majority of them have always acted with the Whigs, and maybe doing so still—but if they posseiis good .common sense they will not lung be found acting with their - former friends, who are now secretely sworn to per secute them to the "bitter end.", - - Township Elections. We lave received returns but from three or four townships. In Unior, M. F. Campbell, K. N., was de feated for Justice of the Peace, by J. J. •Pos tlethwait, Dem. In Walker, Abram States, Dem., was elect ed Justice of the Peace - over A. Fraker, K. N. Barret, went anti-Know Nothing.- Jackson went for the Know Nothings. We suppose in most of the townships the Know Nothings were successful, as there ap peared to be but little or -no effort made to defeat them. 117 — .A. - correspandent of the United States Gazette, writing from Harrisburg, hopes the Know-Nothing party Will be spared the fatal results the election of Gen. Cameron would bring upon them. If that's so, we say Si mon "point up !" Oa - The Journal addle-heads *are sorely troubled because we Presuirtedlto express an opinion favorable to the selection of Simon Cameron as United States Senator. It is true we, have no voice r ic the, Know-Nothing councils, and solong as the members of that order acted as one man and supported this caneus . nornineesive were„cotitent with the position of a looker-on. But as- soon as we discovered the glaring evidence that the Whig and Abolition -politicians, the most sorrupt, in the State, had been making "hewers of wood and drawers of water" of the Demo cratic Know-Nothings for the purpose of hav ing thernseiveS elevated to all the offices of honor and profit, we appointed ourself a committee of one with power to instruct Gen. Cameron, (as there was Tto possible„ chance for the success of the Democratic caucus nominee or any other old lino Demo crat) to continue to point up!" And until We can see,a. possible chance for the_elec lion of one of our own -hsusehold' we shall continue to say - Sinitin "point , up !"—the braying of -the thing of tho Journal and the capers of the,"supple jack" to the contrary notwithstanding: Borough and Township Election We give below the full returns of the elec tion held in this place on Fri:iay last. We are not certain that all the successful candi dates'are members of "a secret association worse than any of the secret associations in their worit days," and therefore shall' wait . until we hear from the knowing ones, before we give them - the political position they_ are by right entitled to enjoy.-- Those in italics, have heretofore acted with the Democratic party, and those in roman have heretofore ac ted with the Whig party.

Business in San . Francisco was en tirely suspended, caused by the suspension of five•banking houses. There were also ru mors of heavy failures among the merchants. Owing to the scarcity of water but little gold had been taken from the mines. No election of U. S. Senator had taken place, and the joint convention had adjourned sine die. Several large fires had occurred in many of the cities and towns. The Indian troubles were on the increase. Flour was selling at $l5. The columns of the Globe have been weekly ladened with libidinous and absurd articles, concerning the 1Cn01.7-Nothings.-- Journal. If the Journal editors are not members of "a secret asssociation worse than any of the secret associations in their worst days," how can they know whether our articles are "lib idinous and absurd," or not. If they are members of such an association their denial of the truth of what we publish amounts to nothing, as they are instructed if not sworn, to LIE, and know-nothing. Important to Poptmasters and to the Public We are requested to call special attention to the law just passed by Congress modify ing the rates of postage, &c., particularly to those provisions requiring that all letters be tween places in the United States shall he prepaid from and after the Ist of April, 1855, by stamps or otherwise and that, from and after the first day of January next postmas ters must place postage stamps upon all pre paid letters upon which such stamps may not have been placed by the writers, or which may not be enclosed in stamped envelopes. From and after the first of April, 1855, the postage to be charged on each single let ter for any distance in the United States not exceeding 3,000 miles is three cents, and over 3,000 miles ten cents. The law does not change the existing rates or regulations in regard to letters to or from Canada or other foreign countries, nor does it affect the franking privilege. Tire provision in retard to .the registration of valuable' letters will be carried into effect, and special instructions issued to postmasters on the subject, as soon as the necessary blanks can • be prepared and distributed. We beg to suggest that editors generally throughout the United States. would render an essential service to their readers by call ing attention to this subject. —Washington 140 132 49 68 155 150 '79 74 144 30 EM 127 71 76 32 60 53 49 49 PeririSylvania• Legislature, PAOPESSIONS , yEastrs .PaAcTrce.—Since the . state government - passed in to the hands of the anomalous .party now in power, we have quietly watched the Course •of events without, thus far, seeing. the fulfilment of any of the promises made previous , to the election. . Know-Nothings seeking office are entirely different from know-nothings in of fice. Before the election they were eloquent in depicting existing' evils and promising effectual remedies. Among the leading measures to which they pledged-themselves, arid certainly the most important, Were the sale of the pnblic improvements anti the ab olition of the canal-board.. In addition to these.the time of naturalization was 'to be extended, politico-religious association's over thrown, the requirements of the conotitution strictly obeyed; and economy and reeerm in troduced into every department of the gov- . ernmene. Taking them at their word, the voters of the state, by - e n unprecedented ma jority, testified their approbation of the' principles thus distinctly put forth. Under these obligations the present legis lature assembled and the new administration took up the reins of power. After a lapse of more than two months , nothing has been done evincing a serious intention of putting in practical form a single - measure to which they staml.pledged before the world. - Their promised economy and reform • have been exemplified in numerous adjournments, trav elling toward all points of the compass, un less. waste of time, and providine , for an ex tra session.. Serious duties, anti, important legislation have been almost entirely neglec ted-under frivolous pretexts or-A. reckless .dis regard of even seeming excuses. Are this trifling and• inaction to continue to the - end I Was - the programme of the campaign, - solemnly presented to the people before the last election, intended' to end in a farce at the expense of their disappointed hopes and depleted treasury ? Is the history of the present Legislature Co continue to its close what it is up to the present time--a history of broken Prothises, unredeemed pledges, neglect - of constitutional duty, child ish travelling and unnecessary expenditures? Should it turn out thus, it will be consoling to reflect that there will .not be another 'like it during the present century.- e Notwithstanding the worst is to be appre hended from past indications, there are some among' their,confiding constituents who'still hope for. better Things—that reflection and an awakened sense of duty will torn their rep-, resentatives from a career of folly to a labo rious discharge of their official obligations.— We ebnfrss we see but little ground for such a.lope. Suspicious movements already por tend that no fair and effectual steps will be ta ken to carry out ,any salutary measure, or Any of the measures promised before the election. Especially' is, this the Case in re tard to the. momentous movement for the sale of the piiblic works, the promise of which carried away more democratic coon ties and democratic voters to swell the dorni- I nant majority than all other causes combified. Bills for selling the different divisions will probably pass, hampered with terms and conditions to defeat their operation; specious ly framed to be a seeming compliance with an unqualified pledge. But that any provis ion will be made intended in good faith to effect the sale, there is little reason to bed lieve. And - so it is with all their promises and their dealings with all the public interests. Finesse, fol:y and chicane are in the ascend ant, and duplicity and• recklessness the order of the day. Thebusiness to which they ad dress themselves most earnestly is the man ufacture of banks, thus shoWing a wonderful perspicacity in discovering the most potent method of doing evil within their reach, and an equal wonderful proclivity to its exercise. Without the slightest pretence of necessity the State is threatened with a litter of these currency *corrupters more numerous than that stifled by Simon Snyder, Even the so nility of the Senate, from whose long expe rience better things were looked for, urges the increase of our bank-capital on the ground that other states have more than we have, thus putting to a base use the very reason why we have a - sounder currency and less monetary difficulties than - they. We shall have more to say hereafter.—llarrisburg- Kewstone. Extract of a letter dated H arrisburg March 1131 The House holds afternoon sessions daily —evincing at least a show of doing business —but lam sorry to say, it ends there. Al though the legislature has, been in session about two months and a half—that body has just posse(' three public bills—a state of thinvs which I will venture to say is without a paralell in the history of Pennsylvania legislation.—At the present rate of doing business by the legislature, it will take that body till next October, to finish the public business. So much for the ever to be re membered legislature of Pennsylvania far the year 1855. But after all, the members ate not td blame. the fault lies at the doors of the people who sent them here. They came here fresh from the ranks of the people, as professed Know-Nothings, and most admi rably are they fulfilling their high calling,— The people are at fault in this instance, and it is for them to apply the remedy. Know-Nothing Hypocrisy.. It is a well known fact that whilst the ReV. STEPHEN MILLER, editor .of the .Harrisburg Telegraph, boasts of ministering to the spir itual wants of four hundred and forty-four communicants, and affects publicly to be hor ror stricken at the dangerous tendencies of Catholicism and foreign influence, privately - , among intimate friends, he laughs in his sleeve at the cities who obey his nefarious behests. He has frequently acknowledged, with a monky-like grin on his saintly coun tenance, that "Catholics were as good citi zens and as republican in feeling as any oth er class of professing christians ;" yet, for the sake of power and plunder—for the sake of being recognized as one of the "meek and lowly," he would persecute with fiend-like ferocity, poor, innocent men, women and children, and gloat over the misfortunes and ignorance of his fellow-man. May God in His wisdom have mercy on his soull—Har risburg Dent. Union. [l:7'Sorne of the Whig and Know-Nothing papers are already giving Gov. Pollock some sharp tligs. The Chambersburg.
