Broad Top Road and its Business
This road has opened under the most fa
vorable auspices. We noticed yesterday the
cars arriving freighted with pig iron from
Rough and Ready Furnace. The passenger
car attached to the train which is carrying
out the iron, goes out and- cornea in twice a
day well filled with passengers. From the
manner in which it opens, it bids fair to be
a first rate passenger and local freight road,
in addition to the immense coal business
that will be done upon it.
Fourteen miles of the track are now laid
and in use and passengers pronounce it an
admirably constructed, solid road, It is the
straightest road in Pennsylvania, laid with
best quality of T rail, and - American iron.
Track layers are busily at work stretching
out the iron link-that in a few weeks, will
bring one of the richest semi-bituminous
coal and mineral regions of the State, with
inan hour's ride of the Pennsylvania Rail
road--
and Canal at this place. Boats are
building in preparation for the trade; the en
terprise speedily approaches its completion,.
under the vigorous action of its energetic
President, and the most sanguine anticipa
tions of its friends will soon be realized.
[lGabe still believes that the editorials --
of the Globe are prepared by several of our
most talezted,. as well as most respectable
citizens: Pile therri up, Gabe, you will soon
make us believe we are something more than
a natural know nothing: Just think of it—
the most talented gentlemen in town sus
pected of writing our editorials. Thank you,
Gabe; we'll return the compliment if ever
your brain should hatch any thing above a
swamped idea ; or a bible " record."
Xamison's Liue of Stages
We invite attention to the advertisement
of Mr. JOHN JAMISON. The public on the

Open Oiganization
One of the speakers at the Know-Nothing
fizzle attempted to convince those of his hear
ers who had no opportunity of knowing
better, that the dark lantern party had aban
doned their secret, gatherings, and - ,woulii
henceforth act openly and in the sight of all
mankind. The speaker knew that what. he
was asserting was false—known to be false
by a, large majority of his hearers—for the
Orderhere dare not deny that they have held
at least four secret - council meetings in this
place since the 9th inst., and a -Convention of
delegates from the councils of the county ou
Wednesday last. What was done at their
County Convention,- of course, will not be
made public through their organs, neither
will the little arrangementS'entered into in
their council gatherings at midnight, to de
ceive and persecute their neighbors, be made
known to any but the faithful.
As the Professor was President of the
County Convention, perhaps he has learned
by this time that there are at least a. few
applicants for office in his, the dark , lantern
party. Quite a large number :were named
in the Convention for the Legislature—Col.
S. S. Wharton and J. Sewel Stewart, appeared
to stand No. on' the lisi of .aplilicants—_-and
every body knoWs they 'are not o'.d office
hunters• Those recommended' by the Con
vention will be voted -for in the councils of
the county ; and those receiving the highest
number of votes will be the candidates of the
party. , We shall Announce the ticket as
soon as the return judges . from the councils
meet.

the Democratic Union, Harrisburgb, baying

COURT.—Court lasted but one week—all the
jurors were diicharged on Saturday morning
last. BM 'few, eases, and .none of general in
terest were tried.
the Grand Pizzle of the park Lantern
Party.
The' first and only, public demonstration
made- in this county by the dark lantern
party took place in the Diamond, in front of
C. Coots' Hotel, in this borough, on Wednes
day evening last; Early in the evening the
drum and fife were heard approaching the
town from the - swamps below, and every
Democrat and old line Whig expected soon
to see the streets
_crowded with an army of
the faithful. The dogs began to bark, our
Shanghai crowed, and bantam flapped his
wings—we ventured out=the procession was
approaching head quarters—and .such a pro
cession—bantam began to crow lustily—all
told, the procession numbered, without count
ing 'the drummer and fifer, twenty-seven
boys and three natural know nothings,—=the
whole marshalled by Gen. Wm. Dunn. Ar
riving at head quarters, officers for the first
grand open Know Nothing demonstration
were selected: Who they were we could
not learn. The speakers were from the ranks
of the people, not old office hunters, net
they-they
-are opposed to the office hunters
dictating to the people—they are the Ameri
cans now—advocating American principles
such as dictated the action of the dark lantern
patty in Louisville at the late election. The
speakers—who were they We want those
of the Order who were Democrats to ask
themselves the question. It is as we pre
dicted—the most corrupt of the old Whig
party are now managing the affairs of the
new party—and Democrats find themselves
led by, the nose by politicians for whom as
such they never had and never can have the
least respect. The speakers were Wm Wil
liamson, John- N. Prowel, J. Sewel Stewart,
A. W. Benedict, Dr. Wintrode, land we have
been told that Prof. Barr also made a speech,
but we have not seen or heard of any body
that heard any part of it.) All, heretofore
office hunters in the Whig party. Not a
speaker present who had been a Democrat,
and they are not expected to dictate, but to
do the dirty work that such Americans as we
have named may be enabled to crawl into
office.
The speaking commenced—and Prof. parr
was seen scattering the faithful through and
around the 'crowd who were instructed to
hurra whenever he should give command so
to do. Several attempts were made to raise
a harm., but it was no go, until one of the
speakers called for the Sag Nichts, when there
was a tremendous hurra, but it was discov
ered that the noise and confusion all came
from the out-ciders who supposed the speaker
had insinuated that the Professor and his
friend" had deserted their posts, and were
again in Washington street hunting a Sag
Nicht rileeting. l\dr. Williamson quoted large
ly from the scriptures to show that a Catholic
could not be - a good American citizen, and
that an Irishman could live longer on raw
potatoes than he could on the remedies pre
scribed by Dr. Jayne last winter. Air. Stew
art endorsed the Know Nothing principles
with all his hear t, and hoped all true Ameri.
cans, friends of his, would work late and
early until it should be decided whether he
was to be their nominee for the Legislature
or not. Mr. Benedict would have no objec
tions to serving the American party another
Winter at Harrisburg, either as Clerk or Rep
resentative,—if nominated for the Legislature
he would have two chances, arid he thought
his services for years and peculiar cunning
ness gave him claims over all others. Mr.
Prowel was right on the goose or any other
question, and could be found at all times bat
tling for the " dingbatts" and the Constitu
tion. Dr. Wintrode would accept a nomi
nation for the Legislature, and if elected
' would serve—but urged his friends not to
press his claims too vigorously, as he could
afford to wait a little longer !
The meeting finally adjourned, the boys
went home, and Gen. Dunn rested from his
labors.
They Could'ut Come Xp
At the Democratic Delegate election held
in this place on Saturday evening the 11th
inst., the Know Nothings, (those who' have
no political or moral character 'to lose,) at
tended at au early hod') and but for the deci
ded stand the Democrats took, would have
made an effort to control the election. Gabe
and the Professor were there, who with the
assistance of the lapdoa• arid its master, were
able only to make a little 'noise and confu
sion.' Failing completely in bringing about
a fusion with the pure and unsuspected Dent
ocracy, they sneaked back the same night to
their council room in the Court House and re
ported progress, which, judging from the ap
pearance of their elongated countenances the
next morning, did not come up to what was
expected of them by their honorable leaders.
Know Nothings' Outside Influenez:
The dark lantern gentry count largely upon
the strength they expect to have at the next
election outside of their Order. They expect
to' have a few such as 'travelled the county
last fall, previous and on the day of eleotion,
who represented to Democrats that LEAS was
an independent Democratic candidate, when
they knew that he was the Know Nothing
nominee. Democrats cannot be caught in
the same net, by the same fishermen, or any
others of like character, a second time.
NEW POST OFFICES.—On the n.ew mail
route fron West Barree to Pinegrove, Jons
IRVIN has been appointed P. M. at Masseys
burg And JOSEPH E. MITCHELL ) P. M. at
Monroe Furnace. Both excellent appoint
ments.
The Dictionary again.
We now proceed to show why we prefer
Webster's Dictionary to any other. The main
principle is, that the tendency of our language
to greater simplicity and broader analogies;
ought to be watched and cherished with the ut.
most care, With this view Webster spells,
words, so far us consistent, according to a cor
rect pronunciation ; and whenever general rules
and analogies have advanced so far as to leave
but few exceptions to impede its progress, those
exceptions are set aside at once, and the analo
gy rendered comp etc. Q►; this ground , the
termination our is changed to or, omitting the
uin such words as favor, labor, &c. In prepa
ring this article 1 observe the significant fact
that a large number of these words came from
latin terminations in or, but in their transmis
sion through the Norman—French, they are
incumbered with the silent u as in emperour,
authour, &e. The termination sir is changed
into eas in music, maniac. The termination
re is changed into er as in center meter, instead.
of the French center, meter. The pronuncia.
tion requires this change. Dr. Webster carries
out another reform required by convenience and
consistency,-ense in place of ence, as in the
words expense, defense, pretense, &c. These
with other modifications are calculated to give
uniformity stability, and permanency of usage,
and add to the variety and harmony of the lan
guage.
It is acknowledged on all hands, that Webster
as a definer stands preeminent. He possesses hi
an extraordinary degree, the faculty of defining
in the happiest manner, not only giving the
word and its synonyms, but he traces it to its
origin, describes it, and gives'the varied man.
net in which it is used. This is a feint idea of
Webster's merits. The fallowing- beautiful ex
tract will present the rest.
"It scenes to be one of the laws of Providence,
that the founders of States shall never divide
their glory with those who come after them.—
Moses, Solon, and Lycurgus ; Romulus, Alfred
and Washiagton, hive left none to dispute their
fame. So it is with the fathers of learning.--,
The name of Cadmus inspires to-day, the same
veneration that was felt for him by Plato, No
dramatic poet will dream of usurpingthe throne
of Shakespeare— no future astronomer will lay
a profime hand on the crown of Galileo. The
world looks for no other Mar—there will be no
second Dante. Daniel Webster has interpreted
the Constitution, and Noah 'Webster left us a
'standard of the English language which will
guide all successive ages.
"The pen is the only scepter which is never
broken. The only real master is he who con.
trols the thoughts of men. The maker of words
is master of the thinker who only uses them.—
In this domain he has no rival. He stands at
the fountain-head of thought, science, civiliza
tion. He is controller of all minds—to him all
-who talk, think, write or print, pay ceasless and
involuntary tribUte. In this sense,Noah-Web
ster is the all-shaping, all.eontroing mind of
this hemisphere. He grew up with his coun
try, and he molded the intellectual character of
her people. Not a man has sprung from her
soil, on whom he has not laid his all-forming
hand, His principles of language have tinged
every sentence that is now, -or will ever be ut
tered by an American tongue. His genius has
presided over every scene in the nation. It is
universal, omnipotent,:-,omnipresent. No man
can breathe the air of the continent, and escape
it.
"The scepter which the great lexicographer
wields so unquestionably, was most worthily
won. It was not inherited, it was achieved,—
It cost a lifc.strugglc for an honest, brave; un
faltering heart-,-a clear, serene intellect. No
propitious accidents favored his progress. The
victory was won after a steady trial of sixty
years. Contemplate the indices of his progress;
for science, like machinery, measures its revo
lutions. When the wheels of our ocean steam
ers have moved round a million_ times, the di-,
al hand marks one. It was so with Galileo and
Bacon—their books marked their progress
through the unexplored seas of learning. It
was so with Webster. When our republic rose,
he became - its schoolmaster. There had never
been a great nation with a universal language
without dialects. The Yorkshireman . cannot
now talk with a man from Cornwall. The
peasant of the Ligurian Apennines, drives his
goats-home at evening,, over ,bills that lopk
down on six provinces, none of whose dialects
he can speak. Here; five thousand milet change
not the sound of a word. Ardund every fire
side, and from every tribune, in every field of
labpr and every factory
_of toil, is heard the
same tongue. We owe it to Webster. He has
done for us more than Alfred did for England,
or Cadmus for Greece. His books have educa
ted three generations. They are forever mul.
tiplying his innumerable army of thinkers, who
will transmit his name from age to age Only
two men have stood on the New World, whose
fame is so sure to last—Columbus, its discover
er, and Washington its saviour.- Webster is,
and will be its great teacher r and these three
make our trinity of fame."
' THE CHRISTIAN DENOMINATIONS IN THE
UNITED 'STATES.— = Maryland, the first State
in the Union,' says the Boston Transcript,
where the Roman Catholic Church- gained a
footing, now contains eight hundred and
seven Protestant Churches, -and only sixty
five Catholic congregations. Id Florida the
Catholics early settled. Now there are one
hundred and seventy Protestant and only
five Catholic churches. Louisiana was set
tled by the Catholics, who now have •fifty?
five 'Churches in the State, while the Protest
ants have two hundred and forty-seven con
gregations. In Texes the Catholics were the
first sect • in point of - time—they: now hive
thirteen churches, but the Protestants report
three hundred and seven societies in the State.
The number of Episcopal, Lutheran and Ro
man Catholic Churches are nearly the same
throughout the country, but
.each of the three
denominations have about one eleventh 5.) f
the number of Methodists, scarcely one
eighth that of the Baptists, and notone-fourth
that of the Presbyterians.
The entire . Protestant population of the
country, compared with that of the Catholic,
is about as 12 to 1.
BALTIMORE, Aug. 20.—Wheat dull ; re,
ceipts 30,000 boshels, and the market closeU
at $1,80a1,93 for good to prime white, and
$l,BO for red. corn, sales white at:BBa9oc.
Flour, a decline of about 5 cents; market
heavy ; sales of Howard street at $8,75.
D" A Hartford (Ct•.) paper tells a story of
an American wbn deposited -$lOO in the
hands of an Englishman, for which he was
to receive $25 per month until Sebastopol
was taken. This was the Ist of November
last, and the American has received his
per month, ever since that time. One hun
dred dollars could hardly have been invested
better. •
Cl" . To show the folly of persecution for reli
gious opinions, we recommend the following
eloquent and "truthful lines from the pen of
EPES SARGENT, not only to the murderers of
Louisville, and the Protestant ladies of Bards
town, but the people of this Union generally.--
Tligy are true as God is just.
'The very worst mischief that pan be done to
religion is to pervert it to the purposes of fac
tion. Heaven and hell arc not more distant
than the benevolent spirit of the Gospel and the
malignant spirit of party. The most impious
wars ever made were those palled holy wars..r-
He who hates another man for not being a
Christian, is himself not a Christian. Tolera.
tion is the basis of all public quiet. It is a
charter of freedom given to the mind, more
noble, I think, than that which secures our per
sons and estates, Indeed, they are inseparably
connected ; for, where the mind is_ not
,free,
where the conscience is enthralled, there is
no freedom. I repeat it; persecution is as
impious as it is cruel and unwise. It not
only opposes every precept of the New Testa. 1
ment, but it invades the prerogative of God
Himself. It is a usurpation of the attributes
.which belong exclusively to the Most High.—
It is a vain endeavor to ascend into His Throne,
to wield His sceptre, and 1101 His thunder.
bolts.
"And then its own history proves how uselegs
it is. Truth, is immortal; the sword cannot
pierce it, fires cannot consume it, prisons can
not incarcerate it, famine cannot starve it; all
the violence of men, stirred up by the power
and subtlety of hell, cannot put it to death. In
the person of its martyrs it bids defiance to the
will of the tyrant who perseputes it, and with
the martyr's last breath predicts its own full
and final triumph. The Pagan persecuted time
Christian, but yet Christianity lives. The Ro„
man Catholic persecuted the Protestant, and
yet Protestantism still lives. The Protestant
perseeuted the Catholic, but yet Catholicism
lives. The Church of England persecuted
Nonconformists, and yet Nonconformity lives.—
Nonconformists persecuted Episcopalians, yet
Episcopacy lives. When persecution is carried
to its extreme length of - extirpating herities,
Truth may be extinguished in one place, but it
will break out in another. If opinions cannot
be put down by argument, they cannot by pow
er. Truth gains the victory in the end, not on,
ly by its own evidences, but by the sufferings of
its confessors. Therefore, if we, have a mind
to establish peace among the People, we must
allow men to judge freely in matters of religion,
and to embrace that opinion they think right,
without any hope oftemporal reward, without
any fear of temporal punishment.
The Cost of Snow Nothigtgism
It is stated in one of our exchanges that sev
eral thousand .naturalized citizens have left, or

full' enjoyment of their constitutional rights.
Our neighbors of Canada, keenly alive to their
