T - E HUNTINGDON Wednesday, May 23, 1855 Circulation—the largest in the, County SEE NEVI Anv.—Estate notice of John Conrad, dec'd. Six hundred five gallon kegs wanted. Proclamation by Chief Burgess Cremer. A farm of 210 acres for sale on the 14th June. The Sober Second Thought Some sixty gentlemen of the democratic party in the county of Lauderdale, Missis sippi, have published a card announcing their witndrawal from the know-nothing organiza tion. M. A. McKinnon, the president of the know-nothing council at Oxford, Mississippi, also publishes a card announcing his with drawal, and giving a history of the origin, progress, and plans of the order in that coun ty. In this state, in every county : those who were followers of the distinguished leaders of the Democratic and Whig parties, are dai ly withdrawing from the Know-Nothings.— Indeed there seems to be a general "cave in" of the order in all parts of the country. The Next State Pair The Barrisburzers have succeeded in rais in 2 the amount necessary (61.500) to insure the holdincr of the next State Fair at that place. The days fixed for the Fair, are Tees day, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the 25th, 26th, 27th and 28th of SPptember next. The annual aildress before the Society will be delivered by the Hon. FREDERICK WATTS, of Carlisle, its first President. When shall we look upon its like again.? The Herald and Free Press, the only Whig paper published in Montgomery coun ty, gives the Know-Nothings a severe thrust under the fifth rib in the following : "In the whole history of Pennsylvania von may turn in vain to find another Legis lature as that just adjourned—particularly the lower branch of it. Reckless, corrupt and irresponsible, it rushed wildly into every scheme which was presented before it, and we cannot now call to mind any measures which seemed in danger of defeat or over throw, except those which were calculated to benefit the people or advance the interest and prosperity of the State. Selfi.shness stood out as the great leading pr;nciple and person al benefits and advantage were the chief ends to he accomplished, in its whole career of legislation. if we are to believe its Mem bers, corruption stalked abroad at noon-day, bold and unblushing in its venality, and men could be found who would chaffer and huck ster to the value of a cent as to the consider ation to be paid for services rendered. Let us be thankful that at length such a body has passed away, and pray earnestly that we nev er "shall look upon its like again." The Neva - Bounty Lana Law The number of applications under this law now amount to 10 I,BOG, and are still c.cming in at a rapid rate. The Union says It is probable that the Pension Office will commence the issue of warrants about the Ist of June next, as the engraving, of the plates is rapidly progressing; !roady has a portrait of the Secretary of the Navy been completed for the 160 acre warrant, that of the Secretary of the Interior for the 320 acre warrant, and that of the Secretary of War for the SO acre warrant. The portraits of the President and others are still in the hands of the engravers. The engravings already executed are greatly admired by all who have seen them, and are proud - evidences of Amer ican skill and genius in this department of the fine arts. The commissioner has decided that the :rights of a widow of a deceased soldier are loSt in a second marriage, but are revived again on the death of the second• husban-d. If, howeyer. there be minor children living of the first husband, they may claim in right of their father during the second marriage. A power of attorney cannot be executed un til after the warrant has been issued. There is about as much truth in the following as there is 'in nine-tenths of the Know-Nothing victories now going the • rounds of their papers : "A mast residing in Humboldt county, Cal ifornia, lately cut down a redwood tree, from which he built a two-story frame house, 24 by 30 feet, and furnished complete ; after which he fenced in a ten-acre field with rails split from the trunk, and sold enough to build a good sized hotel. It was found, on meas uring the remains of this forest monster, that only thirty feet had been used altogether. At least, so says the ,Sacramento .California) Union." Opinion of the Attorney General The Attorney General has given the fol lowing 'opinion, as to the operations of the anti-licence law passeed by :the last legisla- tare Although the .14th section of the Act of April 13th, 1855, entitled "An , Act to re strain the sale of inzoxicating liquors," de clares that no license wanted between Abe date of the act and the first of July next, shall authorize the retailing of liquors, by innkeepers after the first day of October next, yet the adt does not provide for ,any appor tionment of the price of the license for a less period than one year ; and 'innkeepers whose licenses have been granted since the date of the act, must therefore pay the price of a whole year's license, to enable them to continue their business until the first day of October next, at which time all such licenses will expire by the express terms of the law. After the first day of July next, no licen ses for the sale of intoxicating liquors can be granted or issued in any other manner than that provided by the act. Until the first of July next, I am of . the opinion that the Coun ty Treasurers -may issue licenses as hereto fore. The applicants in such eases must pay the prices now fixed by law for the whole year ,- and the mercantile appraisers must make their returns for the present year as usual ; there being no change made in their duties by the act, nor any provision for an apportionment by them. THOMAS E. FRANKLIN, Attorney General. 1 Eaticaster, Rlay -10); Every class of living things has its uses,-- 7 - ', its design and mission on earth; and no class or kind can be exterminated without inflict ing injury on the human family. Even in sects have their uses and beneficial effects in the economy of natrue. if they check veg etation and reduce the crops, they in many regions and districts prevent overproduction, and exhaustion of the soil. But, while na ture, has assigned to them a task and a use, it has provided against the too abundant increase of their numbers by making the insects them selves food for the birds. But for the birds the insects, worms and vermin would be come so numerous as to destroy all, vegeta tion. The feathered tribes keep down their increase to a safe limit, and would thus preserve a just balance in nature but for the wanton propensity of man to destroy the birds. A gin may be found in almost every farm house in the country, and, while it is useful for some' purposes, it destroys and frightens away the best friends of the hus bandman. They not only greet him with their morning songs, and delight him with their gay plumage, their infinite variety and their active and sprightly industry, but they protect his crops from the increase of vermin that would destroy them. If they devour a few bushels of his grain they corn': pensate him for it by preventing the destruc tion of ten times more than they claim as their own reward. Were we a farmer we would cultivate the birds as assiduously as we would the domes tic fowls, and would welcome them to an undistnrbed home in our neighborhood.— Their morning melodies are more delightful than the best serenade of a city band. Their cheerful activity gives life to the orchards, the fields and the forests. They are pleasant and harmless friends of man, and their wan ton destructions is not only cruel, but most injurious to the farmer and gardener. PA But strong as the reasons are that demand an increase of the feathered tribes, man with his murderous gun pursues them until in thickly settled regions they are almost exter minated. Were the uses of these birds un derstood, and their melody, their innocence, and their beauty duly appreciated, the guns of the urchins and the sportsmen would al most as soon be aimed at the domestic fowls. A. writer in the Gennesscc Farmer, an excel lent agricultural journal, has the following just remarks on this subject: Suppose the State of New York had a thousand robins where it now has one, how many caterp'llars, moths, worms, grubs. and other voracious insects would these birds consume ? If public opinion were only en lightened on this subject, so as to protect all insectivorous birds, we should soon cease to. complain of cureulios, weevils peach tree and apple tree borers, peabugs, and a hundred garden bugs, flies, snails, grass hoppers, lo rusts, cotton and tobacco worms. «'e have had opportunities for studying most of these depredators and regard the unnatural destruc tion of birds, or their expulsion, from all so called civilized communities as the principal cause of the increase of insects. Let us study nature and observe how nearly all the feathered tribes, with which we are familiar, hatch their young at that season of the year when insects and their larva most abound, when to many millions are daily consumed to feed the voracious broods of rapidly . growinc , birds. In Mary land and Virainia large flocks of turkeys are reared expressly to be driven through tobac co fields by children "to worm the crop."— A turkey, from the time it is large enough to eat a worm til it attains its fell growth, will consume an incredible number of insects, and forcibly illustrates an imporjant law.— Barn yard fowls, doves, and pigeons may al so be cultivated at a profit. Were it not for the fact that insects devour each other, and are destroyed in countless _numbers every year by the bird 3, they might soon accumulate to such an extent as to sweep every vestige of vegetation from the face of the earth. The extermination of all the feathered tribes in wanton sport, and in ignorance of Nature's laws, would tend rap- idly towards such a result. There are very few birds that do harm and their mischief can be prevented by far better means than by killing them. it should be made a penal of fence to kill a harmleSs bird, for it is a public injury. Nor is the injury in the ag gregate a trifling one. Let every farmer cul tivate birds, encourage their free and unmo lested use of his forests 'and fields, and their rapid multiplication -in his neighborhood.= They will help to protect his ,crops, and in crease their quantity. They may commit some depredations but they will do fox him ±enfold more good than harm. Nature's God has adjusted a nice balance among all living things, and for a•wise and bencficient purpose. If there were no in sects and worms the ranknesS of vegetation would soon exhaust the soil. If there were no check to the multiplication of insects and vermin they would soon destroy all vegeta tion. The birds are the check. Tf mankind for mere wanton sport destroys the birds the insects and vermin increase, and the crops are consequently reduced. Birds fit for food may be killed for that purpose. But such as are not used for food should not be de stroyed.—Pit tburg post. TEES END OF A GLUTTON.—English papers mention the suicide of a Mr.',Raylstone, who ten years ago was worth . one hundred and fifty thousand pOunds sterling, which he has since squandered in the gratification of his appetite. He had agents in China, Mexico, Canada, and other places.to supply him with the rarest delicacies, and a single dish some times cost him fifty pounds. At length, on the 15th of last April, nothing was left him but a solitary guinea, a shirt, and battered hat. He bou7ht a woodcock with the guin ea, which Ile had carved ,up in the highest style of the culinary art; he gave himself two hours for an easy digestion, and then jumped into the Thaines from Westminster bridge. Don't Kill the. Birds, News from the Seat of War. Sebastopol not yet Taken--Attempts to assassinate Napoleon---Critical posi tion of the Allies---100,000 Russians near Sebastopol---&c. &c NEW YORK, May 18.—The steamer, Baltic arrived this evening with Liverpool dates to the sth. The Allies are gaining ground. All the Russian outworks were taken after sanguina ry encounters, which were frequent. A large number of Russian mortars were taken, with many prisoners. The Sebastopol dates are to the 4th. Louis Napoleon narrowly escaped assassin ation on the evening of the 28th. An Ital ian fired two pistols at him while riding on horseback. Personal revenge was the object of the attempt. There is nothing in the news from the siege to warrant a result. The bombard.- ment was much slacked, and had not pro duced the result anticipated. The position of the Allies is regarded as critical. Notwithstanding the advantage trained, the firing slacked on the 28th, in or der not to exhaust the ammunition. An immense Russian force is reported as concentrating near Sebastopol . ; it is said to be 100,000 stronz: Daily telegraphic communications are had with the Crimea, but the Government is cap tions with the news. Lord Raglan admits that:the bombardment has not produced the result looked for.— The list of casualties to the Allies was not heavy The general impression in England is that the siege will be abandoned for the present, and the whole of Kannesch and Balakleva left to defence by a few corpse. The main portion of the Allies will try to penetrate into the interior-, in order to cut off supplies to Sebastopol, and then completely to invest the town. Numerous reinforcements were constantly reaching the Allies. 'A French reserve of 80.000 men near Constantinople are expect ing to be sent to Balaklava. Russian official accounts, dated the 24th, represent the damage as of but little account. ft was actively repaired, while the skirmish es were generally successful. The loss sus tained by the garrison, from the llth to the 15th, was 7 subalterns and 436 men killed and 6 superior, 34 subalterns officers and 1899 men wounded. The English captured the first rifle pit on the nigh of the 17th, after a desperate encounter, in which Col. Graham' Errerton, a field officer in command, was kill ed. On the 20th an attack was made . on the 2d Russian rifle pit, which was almost im mediately abandoned. According to the statement, of two Polish deserters, 100,000 Russians were in the vi cinity of Sebastopol, 60,000 of whom arri ved from Sebastopol. The forts on the north stale of the harbor had taken part in the cannonade, carrying shots clear intodhe lines of the. Allies. .The telegraph to London from the Crimea is perfect-except a small portion across the Danube. Dispatches reached _the "British government in a few' hours, but Were not generally communicated to the public, al though nightly questions were asked in par liament. The ministers declared that they should exercise due discretion in the publica tion of the news. There was an insurrection in Ukraine, Russia, which extended to three other gov ernments. Twenty landed proprietors with their wives and families have been destroy ed. GREAT BRITAIN—The loan bill of £16,- 000,000 was passed on the Ist by.the Com mons, and on the same night was ordered to be committed to the Lords. The monthly returns of the Board of Trade are short as contrasted -with the same month last year, showing a falling off of about £lOO,OOO. Metals have experienced the decline, owing to the diminished demand for iron in the United States. Sir John Burgoy'ne before the Robuck Committee.gave important evidence in rela tion to the war in the Crimea.• Latest Despatclt.—A. sharp engagement took place on the night of the Ist of May.— The front and left attack, of the whole Mis sian rifle pits were taken, with 8 light mor tars and 200 prisoners. The whole affair was brilliant for the Allies. Constantinople, 24.—Stratford :'Do Rackliff has returned to Constantinople. Mehemet Alin has been recalled from exile. Conrobert speaks of his troops as being ready for immediate operations. Orders have been received to prepare trans ports. Sebastopol, May 4.—On Wednesday night the French, under Gen. Pellissier, attacked the advanced orks at Quarantine 13astron, and carried them at the point of the bayonet, taking 12 mortars, and establishin7 them selves in the position. The following, night the Russians made a sortie to retain the posi tion, when, after a sanguinary encounter they were, driven back. PHILADELPHIA MARICETS. NONDAY, May 21, P.
