V The State Fair.
TVe trust our brethren of the press will
direct attention to the groat State Fair that j
is to commence at Harrisburg, on tbe 29th
October. New York has just bad 100.000 j
visitors at her fair at Rochester. The
young State of Oliio has just bad 50,000
visitors, at ber fair last week at Columbus,
and why can not tbe old Keystone have
as great a congregation at Harrisburg?
Wc invite all our farmers to come, but
above all we invite those having pood
horses, cattle, bogs, theep, poultry, ngii-
cultural implements, &e., to brmg tnem ton s modern palace of Aladdin. Even

PhilaJ. San.
Close of llie World's Fair.
The Exhibition, at the Chrystal Palace,
closed on Saturday, the 11th inst. U ben
this great fair was Cist projected, the were
many skeptics as to its success; In', the
result ha proved one of the greatest tri
umphs of its kind,which ever was achieved.
The expenses of this gigantic undertaking
have been more than reimbursed from the
fees paid for admis.sisn; while the mutual
feeling of acquaintanceship, wbich it has
introduced among the principle citizens of
different natson,basbccu highly beneficial
to the cause ft civilization. At first, this
country gained little credit by her contri
butions, but those aroe from attention
being directed to her more elegant articles
of maiinfacturc, in wli-h she vainly tried
to surpass Ihc old Wo. Id, instead of those
useful implements, cf which the reaping
machine waa one, ia which she stood with
out, a rival. Time, however, remedied
this omission, and brought tJ notice what
had been overlooked. So country, in
consequence, has gained as much credit,
at tbo World's Fair, as tbe United States.
The Exhibition indirectly led to another
triumph for America; wc allude to that
won, in ship-building and rigging, by
Commodore Stevens' Vacbt Without the
World's Fair, it is pruhablj that the Yacht
would never have visitco England, in
which event Europe would still ha. e yfld-
ed ta Great Britain that palm of superior-
....... ....
ity in ship-building, which is now trans
ferred to the United States.
The great question uow is what is to
become of thc Chrystal Palace. The des
tiny of this wonderful structure is uot yet
determined, but tbe probability is that it
will be removed from Hyde 1'ark, even if
erected elsewhere. The a'i-powerful Eng
lish aristocracy covet iheir old drives,
beneath and around the eims which sow
stand enclosed in the transept, aud demand !
the destrcuuon of the building in cousc-
a . . - I
quence ; and it is generally believed that
their itllaenM wxll jvJ, so f at Ut
as to compel compromise, based on its -removal,
auj its re-ercction somewhere else.
It hs been suggested that tbe Chrystal
Palace be taken to the New Perk, wbich
is now being laid out on tbe Thames at
Battersc-a,oppositc to wbcre the new llouscs
of Parliament stand, -and be there kept as
a winter pardon. The location is certain-
j Iy a very desirable one.
Thc effect of the
long line of building, as seen from tbe
river, would be superior to any thing that
has been obtained in Hyde Park ; while
iU contiguity to Westminster would be an
additional argument iu favor of the pro
posed location. It is probable, therefore,
that this will be the destiny of Sir. Pax-

California News.
The r-ter.mer Illinois, from Chagres, via ! -
Kiiigt,-r, Jamaica, arrived at New York
:n S.i'urday morning with 374 passergcrs,
$r,S -37,359 iu gold dust, and the California
nulls to September 15th the news is
consequently Iwo weeks later.
Among her passengers were Senator
Givinn, and seven persons who have made
S100.OO0 each in the mines.
The latest returns of the election show
a majority of 422 for Heading, the Whig
candidate f'r Governor.
The division of the State still attracts
considerable discusoion. The members
elected to the Legislature from the southern
counties, are pledged to aid the movement.
From reliable returns, says the San
Trancisco Herald of the 15th, the Whigs
have elected two State Senators and the
Dt'inocrsts eleven, one Whig and five Dcm
'icratiu Senators bold over. Tbe Senate
consists of 1.3 members.
To the Assembly 14 Whig, 26 Demo
crats, and two Indepcndants are elected.
The Iiouse consists of G3 members, of
which 32 13 a majority. The counties to
he heard from will undoubtedly give the
Democrats a clear majority. That paity
will then have both branches of the Leg
isLture, and the U. S. Senator. Messrs.
K. C. Miir- hall aud McKarklc, Dem., are
elebted to Congress.
The gold diggings continue to yield rich
returns. The auriferous quartz veins are
hoing worked with great success. In the
dry diggings the miners arc only waiting
fir the rainy season, to take out large
amounts of gold.
The news from the whaling fleet is most
disastrous. Several vessels have been lost,
including the Aramalta, and Henry Thorn-s-'in,
cf New London, and the Arabella,
New Bedford, and America, of New Bed
ford. Distressing.
On Thursday evening last, an insane
woman, by the name of KhodaChampbell,
was burnt to death in the Wmtport jail
by her clothes taking fire. She was in
the care of a man from another county,
who was taking her to the Insane Asylum
at Harrisburg, and by the kind permission
of the Sheriff of this county, was lodged
in one of the jail rooms for thcertning.
She ,,!ul lfCCn in but sIlort time.howcvcr,

fire. The p001- sufferer made no alarm
herself, and there were but a few shreds
left of her clothing when found. She was
literally burnt to a chrisp, and survived
but a short time after the occurrence.

Educate Your Children.
If "a little learning is a dangerous
thing," wc know no better way to cure the
evil than to increase the dose. Unlike
physical maladies, the larger the proscrip
tion and the oftcner repeated, the better
hopes of the patient ; though it oftjn bap
pens that " tbe family" are slow to believe
it in advance. The oracular precept
" Drink deep, or taste not," is of very
doubtful orthodoxy ; especially if its appli
cation be not confined within the limits of
its original Ftrict construction. On the
contrary, let every one draw as deeply be
it much or little from the fountain of
learning, as their ' length of rope' will
permit, and quaff its refreshing waters as
often and largely as thirst may prompt, or
opportunities offer. There is no danger of
a surfeit ; and if there was, repletion, in
such a case, is better than emptiness, and
even a homceopathio morsel better than
no le at all.
We may be allowed, therefore, to ask
our readers all of them who may need a
rord of seasonable admonition ; and we
fear their name is nearer " Legion" than
it ought ta be to take a sober second
thought upon this subject, and see if they
arc doing as much for the proper education
of their children and wards as they might
or ought to do. A bountiful harvest has
just been gathered in, and material com-
forts are abundant and cheap; and if the '
" price of wheat" and the vicissitudes of j
finance and politics, aio not in all respects i
as satisfactory as every body could wish, so
much better the opportunity to call a halt, !
take a fresh reckoning about matters and j
things in general, and home affairs in par- :
ticular. It may enable one to realize more '
clearly that there are other things under j
tbe sun to be accomplished besides sowing
and reaping, and gathering into barns, or ;
eternally delving ' like muck-worms' for j
moneythat there are higher duties, con- j
ncctcd with a higher destiny ; involving ;
weightier responsibilities, with heavier j
penalties and more cheering rewards.
We need not expatiate here upon thc
benefits of a good education, fur in this
enlightened day it surely need not be for
mally proved that the educated man, in
any position in life, has greatly the advan
tage of him who has been 1ss fortunate in
his early opportunities. And now while '

to urge home this self-evident proposition
' upon the attention of every body, educated

Pareuts who have not enjoyed educational j
privileges in their day, can find large rec- j
ompeuse for their own privations in the!
superior advantages which they are enabled
to command lor their children ; and it is
their imperative duty to avail themselves
of these advantages with a free and liberal
hand. It is not a nocessary result that the
sons should become idlers, and the daugh
ters butterflies, with a smattering of this,
and a taste of that, just enough to demon
strate the hopeless vacuum within though
this is unfortunately sometimes the case.
But it is desirable and possible, no matter
what their condition and prospects, that
they shouli have a sound and thorough
education, that shall develop and discipline
whatever natural talents they may possess,
aud Ot them more perfectly for lives of
usefulness and respectability.
When ecIiooIs were scarce, and colleges
remote, sonic excuse could be found for
neglect und indifference in these matters.
But that time has gone by in this section
of country, aud no parent who is at all com
fortable in his n eans can justly cxeuo
himself for any ouiiaiiou of duty on this
subject. His devotion to interests that
are exclusively material and perishing,
while indifferent or hostile to others of
equal urgency and much greater real im
portance, proves him a traitor to those
wuom i roMuencc i as piaceu under ms
charge, and unwoithy, to that extent, cf
the -octal blessmss which surrot-n i buu ;

countaoiiity. I he good people ot ti:s
vicinity, in addition to their own local com-
mon schools, can now find in this place
varied and efficient cdeeitional facilities,
.second to none in the interior of thc State.
The University, as will be seen by tbe
programme in our advertising columns, is
adapted to either a full or partial collegi
ate course ; and can turn out gradual! s
with as directly practical an education as
tne most unra utilitarian could desire
or as liberal and finished, as could be ob
tained in either of the most ancient insti
tutions in the Union.
Thc Lcwisburg Academy is also in the
' full tide of successful experiment '; and
our town can also boast a Select Boarding
School for Young Ladies, and a Female j
Seminary into the bargain ; besides well
filled common schools, and private schools
for young children. These have all just
commenced their winter session, and this
is the most su table time for all, who wish,
tJ avail themselves of thc rare privileges
hire so abundantly and cheaply afforded.
Tbo Election Over.
The election is over, and the public
mind, which has been agitated on thc sub
ject for so many weeks, will now subside
iuio quiet. Xcwspi.pcrs from the interior
will no longer reach us, covered with long
black letters; band-bills will no longer
stare us in thc face from every wall ; nor
will Chestnut street, below Sixth, Lo im
passible from the crowds of eager poli
ticians.
We bear certain mercurial persons, Vi Lo
love excitement as topcr3 love wiue, com
plaining that the result is so quickly
known, and regretting the "good old times"
before telegraphic wires were invented, or
railroads kuewn, when the community was
kept in suspense for a week. Wo hear
others, who expected a tighter contest.
lamenting tbat things were not as they
were in 184S, when the struggle was so
close that every day appeared to alter the
result. The elaborate tables of former
majorities, with counties alphabetically
arranged, which these epicures in election
had prepared, arc now useless ; and their
owners mournfully lay them aside, with
many a 6igh. Well, so goes the world. If
the amateurs in excitement bewail thc
speedy determination of the suspense, the
successful candidate, we trow, docs not.
And, perhaps, even the defeated governor,
since he was to be defeated, is secretly
thankful that he has been "put out of Lis
misery" so soon. I'hilad. Bulletin.

further on, around the point of the hill,
lay the old homestead,whcrc I first saw the
light. Bat, alas ! the old house was gone,
and nought but the old will in the midst
j of a field of grain, marked the spot. The
same beautiful rivulet crossed the road as
in days of yore, but now was soon lost in
a luxuriant meadow. Nearly all the forests
had given way to fields of waving corn.
Enquiries at the Tarious farm hoUst-3

old inhabitants were still here, many had

Tbe country lying upon the Genesseo
river is very interesting and peculiar to
itself. While it is destitute of mountains.
it is also tree of the vallies peculiar to
4 ennsylvauia. Thc country is rolling,and
stretches outcn a magnificent scale; rising
very high above the level of the river, but
taking so many miles fir its ascent and
descent that the traveler has at all times
