Q 7 The "Huntingdon Mill" with three or•
four acres of ground, has again changed•
owners. Messrs. Fisher & M'Murtrie are the
purchasers, for the handsome sum of $14,500.
Speculators and business men have their eyes
open. Huntingdon property is going up.
The' Cropg
We receive the most gratifying intelligence
from every part of our county in regard to
the favorable appearance . of the grain crop
and vegetation in general. The effects of a
severe winter are rapidly disappearir.g, and
every countenance gives evidence of a pros
perous and happy future.,
137" We learn from the Shir kgsburg Tlcr
aid that during the storm on Tuesday of last
week the house of Allen Buckly on the road
from Shirleysburg to Mt. Union, was moved
off its foundation ;Ind his stable blown down
—and that the stone barn of Wm. Shaver, at
Mt. Unionj was partly levelled to the ground,
killing several of his cattle. The new bridge
across the Juniata below the mouth of the
Aughwick - creek, consisting of three spans,
was entirely prostrated from end to end into
the river below, causing a loss of from 5000
to 6000 dollars.
n - It is just as- every true American
might expect—the old line Whigs finding
that they have no longer an organ in the
Huntingdon Journal, and rather than have
that paper—now advocating all the intoler-
ant anti-republican principles of the order
of Know-Nothings—longer in their families
to poison the minds of their children, are al
, most daily having their names entered as
advance paying subsclibers to the GLOBE.-
We have room for A few more of the same
sort.
Ca - We have been credibly informed that
the Quack-Doctor of the ['agent Medicine and
Know-Nothing Journal will retire from the
editorial chair of that paper with the issue
of this week, and that Samuel G. Whittaker,
known as "the Angel Gabriel, Jr.," late edi
tor of the Standing-Stone Banner, deceas
ed, will take his place. The Doctor we sup
pose, now that he will be at leisure, will en
gage extensively in the sale of Medical Stu
dents, act as general agent for the Baltimore
Lock Hospital, and inquire generally into the
cause of the sleekness of many of our citi-
EOM
Have the Old Line Whigs an Organ
in "Old Huntingdon."
The Whigs of "Old Huntingdon" have
been badly treated by the "Hunting,:on Jour
nal," a press they built up by bestowing up
on it a liberal support for many years. It is
no longer the organ of those who have grown
gray in the support of Whig principles and
Whig men. ~. has sold itself to unprinci
pled, bigoted office - seekers. That the
Wl.igs may know the true political position
the journal has taken, we copy the follow
ing editorial from that paper of last week :
"Go AHEAD.—David Crockett said "Be sure
you're right—ihen go ahead." We say as
much to the American party. Be sure you are
right, then go ahead. It is the best sort of head
out. We think •the Ame:ican party is right.
We know it is aoinf , ahead. There is an
: Y omnipotenpy in "right" which nothing can
withstand. With right principles, right
men, right measures, right hearts, right hands,
Tight heads, is there wonder that WE go
ahead ! Not a bit. Let us be true to our
jelves and the head will be with us every
where. Go ahead. Be careful before start
jog—he sure all is right, and then dash, drive,
)(lap, plunge along. Crockett is right.—sarp
js right."

Selling at $1,75 a $2,1013 a bushel, and half

convicted in the Court of Dauphin county, of
sqtempting •to kidnap a colored boy in Har

pay a fine of $lOOO and to undergo an impri

Pennsylvania Legislature.
Both Houses have agreed, to adjourn sine
die on the Bth inst.
The bill for the sale of the Main Line of
the public improvements, as it passed the
House has not yet been taken ap in the SelA ,
ate.
A bill for the removal of the seat of gov
ernment- to Philadelphia. is now occupying
the attention of the members. 'he Harris
burg Item gives the following reasons why
the members, of the legislature want to leave
Harrisburg, and go to Philadelphia ;
"Ist. They can get whiaey for three
cents a drink.
2nd: They can displace store boxes, and
tear down signs, without being known by
the police. -
3d. They can fit,d- more female acquaint-
ancess
4th. They will be in the immediate vicin
ity of the banks who hire them to pass laws
for the government of the people.
sth. They have become so corrupt that
they fear the sight of an honest man.,
6th. They can eats at a shilling eating
house.
7th. They are not wanted here."
The _Ftem also says: "The Calithnmpian
Band, a very old and time honored organip
lion, will assemble in great force on the Bth
of Kay, ori capital Hill, at twelve o'clock,
i . );:q the purpose of serenading the Legisla
ture when they adjourn. A number of bays,
who are very expert on tin whistles and tin
pan gongs, are rehearsing the "Rogues
March," and have succeeded admirably in
attuning their old-fashioned instruments to
that well known piece of music. A com
mittee will wait on the Speaker of the House,
the members will fall in line, and they will
be escorted to the depot, and drummed out of
town. A large delegation of "old offenders,"
from ell parts of the State, who. appreciate
this delicate compliment to the "Model Le
islature," have given notice that they will be
or. hand. The festivities of the day will
wind up with a grand stag dance in the mar
ket house, on which occasion it will be
brilliantly illuminated with penny dips."
Little Delaware.
Ttie democracy of Delaware are moving
in solid column against their unabashed foes.
Hon. George R. Riddle is among the fore
most of the champions in the old line, At a
recent democratic meeting held in Wilming
ton, the following resolutions, among others,
were offered by himself and unanimously
adopted.
"Resolved, That t<t no period in our polit
ical history has a title been -more arrogantly
assumed or jopudently applied than that of
'American' tn . the` tnew-nothing party; hat
no true American republican can subscribe
to an oath which will,proscribe a fellow-man
on account pf his religious predilections, en
gender a powerful and dangerous fprei;gn in,
fluence in our midst (as much to be - depreca,
ted as that influence which we have been
warned against by the Father of our,country)
by preventing, forever, alien resid4nts from
becoming interested in, and identified with
American institutions and people, ar restrict
in any_ manner the freedom a the elective
franchise.
"Besolvad,. That ict is the duty of all polit
ical-associations or parties to proclaim the
principles and measures- upon which they
rely for success, and that all good Citizens,
of every political complexion, should depre
cate any and every effort to promote the
success of individuals by the introdbction of
temporary expedients, sectional jealousies,
and religious prejudices." •
All Right in Michigan
An extract of a letter from Michigan, da
ted 17th ult. says:
"Our township elections through Ole State
are just over, and they indicate a far better
state of things than we could anticipate.—
They exhibit the most decisive nitimph on
the part of the democracy. The Stale is re
duccd, regenerated, dfsenthralled. We knew
that the unnatural union and the dangerous
anti-republican doctrines to which our tern
porary defeat was owing could not last long,
and that the sober second thought would
come. It•has come,: and jtifichigan stands
erect.
Got His Eyes Opened
"Some months ago we were induced—
partly by philanthropic and partly, perhaps ;
by curious motives—to attach ourself to a so
called know-nothing council. • The ostensi
ble principles of the order were such as we
could sympathize with most heartily; and it
did not even occur to us that these ostensible
principles were to be classed among the a
goodly outsides" that "falsehood bath.'.' We
were not long in learning, however, that
"confusion to Popery" was only a bait to
catch the unsuspecting; and that the coin-
oil of which we had a part was nothing
more nor less than a political hot-bed,- from
which were produced all sorts of schemes
anti machinations, conducing to theadyance,
ment of individuals and cliques, instead of
enhancing the general good. We, thsrefore,
withdraw."
The above is the confession of the editor
of the Puffslo Express, (Whig.)
RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE.--,The New York
Journal of Commerce aptly says:
'Persecution for opinion's sake; especially
in religious matters, has always helped to
propagate the tenets which it was designed
to suppress. In some parts of the country
sknow-nothing' has become little else than
partisan array .against
scriptive and intolerant. As ,a ,cpnsequence,
we see sympathy
. springing up in behalf of
the class thus injured in the very quarter
where it would have been least expected.—
This is shown by recent occurrences in Mas
sachusetts.
POTATOES.—Four thousand bushels of po
tatoes were bright to j3oston on Wednesday,
in two vessels from Nova Scotia. It. is sta
ted that a large number: of y,ess.els, laden with
potatoes, are on their way to Bpston from
Nova Scotia, wkera Otero is a large surplus
stock. The receipt of so many thousand
bushels of potatoes must bring the prices
down.
Our Legislature
Our Legislature has been in session for
more than three months—and what has it
done?—What, but pass bank charters, and
acts taking the revenue from the Common
wealth and bestowing it upon mammoth mo
nopolies, upon greedy corporations And
shall they go on, unrebuked, in their whole
sale recklessness The press, we trust, has
still some power, and it should speak out
boldly and unhesitatingly.
The appellation of Legi&lator is fast be
coming a by-word and a reproach. Let a
stranger go upon Capitol Hill, expecting to
see the assembled wisdom of the State, grave
ly deliberating upon what concerns the we)-
fare of their constituents, and what will be
his surprise to find some of those eavans in
dustrieusly engaged in the intellectual oper•
ation ut throwing paper balls at each other
and• tickling the ears of the drowsy with
feathers.—Harrisburg .Ptztriot.
.Can I Get Out ?.
Yes, sir, you can ! Write the following :
"To the President, Offices s and• _Members of
Council No.
"I hereby withdraw from said Council and
from the Order which. said Council repre
sents."'
Date it, sign it, and send it to- one of the
officers, an kee . Fateay, and yon are g free
man. again. It is of no consequence what ac
titan the Connell, may take in ygur case.-r•
Having done as prescribed, Sop are absolved
from all obligation to the o,rder. There need
be no fear of the oath. It is illegal and ex
pressly forbidden by the statute of the State,
and the man who administered it is g candi
date for the State prison. Such an oath has
no binding legal, or moral force, and the
man who repudiates it, in no sense compro
mises himself as a gentleman or man of hon
or.—Harnsburg Union.
importpait Correction
The Harrisburg Herald calls attention to
an important proviso in the new license bill
that was omitted in the first - publication of the"
law at Harrisburg, and generally through
out the State. It was added to the bill as an
amendment in the Senate, and is in these
words :
"Provided further—That so much of any
act or acts of Assembly, as require a license
from a city or county Treasurer to authorize
the sale of spiritous, vinous or malt liquors,
be, and the same is hereby repealed."
This clause refers to the licenses for res
taurants, eating and oyster-houses and gro
ceries selling.by the quart, and uncondition
ally repeals Treasurer's licenses. As they
are invariably, we believe, granted about the
first of May, none but tavern keepers will be
permitted to sell under the old law until Oc
tober next, or until their licences expire.—
Proprietors of eating-houses, groceries, &c.,
cannot procure license until October, as has
generalfy been supposed; and all those taken
out, or to take effect, since the passage of the
new bill, are necessarily null and void.
All licenses already granted by the courts
extending to a period beyond the first of Oc
tober next, are not affected by this act ; but
all licenses granted after this time shall ex
tend only to the time when the new law goes
into operation.—Carlisle Democrat.
Anticipation of gatiirTO.g Events.
.Little news on any subject has come to us
from either of the two great centreg of triter.?
est. The Vienna congress is at a stand still,
waiting, the atrird of the Turkish Plenipo,
tentiary and of the Czar's final ' orders tp
Prince Itlenschikoff and de Titoff , A and
Lord Raglan has for the time intermitted the
series of his meteorological dispatches. 411,
however, leads us to 13onsider this unusual
quiet as a lull before a storm; and to calculate
that in the course of next week we shall
learn tidings, both from the seats of War and
Conference, of greater importance than any
that the electric wires have flashed across
Europe for many a long day.
We know that the Conferences at Vienna
are to be resumed immediately, and we know
that with such important negotiators as
Lord John Russel, and E. Drouyn tie Lhuys
who cannot be spared from their own coun
tries one clay longer than is absoliitply ne
cessary, there is no danger that the negotia
tions will be allowed to trainer en longueur;
so here, too, in a week the best or worst must
be known.
Then, again, before Sebastopol, there are
now encamped a hundred thousand French
and English—forty thousand Turks are at
.Eupatona ; it is impossible that such im
mense bodies of men, now tolerably healthy,
and perfectly supplied in every way, can re
main any longer in state quo. So it is more
than likely that the intelligence received in
the nett week will fill a wide page—pray

THE CINCINNATI. ELECTION.—The miser
able attempt of the know-nothings of Cin

in his inaugural a determination to enforce

the late Legislature of New York; was one
repealing the law against the circulation in
that State of small notes issued by banks in
other States. Here is a fine chance for a pep

NOVEL RELIGIOUS MOVE3rlENT.—Gerritt
Smith, Berriah Green, and a few other spirits
of that order have lately been holding a mee
ting of several days at Oswego, N. Y., to
adopt measures to break up all old religious
denominations and organizations, and blild
up a new system of their own, to take the
place of every other. They hold that all sec
tarianism is wrong, that there should be but
one universal church, and that honesty
should be the only test required to entitle a
person to the rights of membership, and so
on.—Poughkeepsie Eagle.
Cautions in Visiting. Sick Rooms
Never venture into a sick-room if you are
in a violent prespiration (if. circumstances
require your continuence there); for, the mo
ment your body becomes cold, it is in a state
likely to absorb the infection, and give you
the disease.. Nor visit a sick person (espe
cially if the complaint be of a contagion's na ;
ture) with cm empty stomach ; as this dispo
ses the system more readily to conceive the
contagion. In attending a sick person, place
yourself where th,e air passes from the door
