It is a notable circumstance, that the Mifflinburgers Lave devised every means possible to divert and mislead the public during the present contest for county site. The providence of God in sickness, Las teen with them a theme of gratification, ana oi aiino inuuaie enlargement, l-ut perhaps their most fivoiitc hope of blind ing the eyes of the people, is in trying to raise the dead-and-buried Bond question which Xew Berlin bruited until it killed them as a county scat. That it will have the same effect, on MiUUuburg we have no doubt. The allegation of Mifflinburg is, first, that County Commissioners have the pow er to subscribe stock to Railroad Compa nies. This is false as a general thing, aud we have repeatedly defied them to show one word of Law for their assertion. The power of Counties to aid in const ructing Hailroads by lending their credit, is a ;- . , , , ' , ! ruti gram oi power oy lue legislature ; and not a general power. The Legislature did grant power to sc- i veral couuties, to take stock in the Suubu-' tj k Erie and Susquehanna Railways. The former is now completed, along the oppo site side of the rivcr,and there is no desire, j wish, or expectation, on the part of any t ono in Uuion county to take stock iu it, : n'(,n county, were recently favored with for it is fiuished to our purpose. j a viiit fl0in Lim on tia way l t" Con The Susouehanna Kailroad Company ' ferenco at Lebanon. Mr. Dreisbach onco died by being merged with the Central ' Kailway Company, aud before so doing surrendered back all its Bonds from Cor porations, which wc suppose were cancelled. There is therefore no power wc again defy all the M iffliuburgers to show it no power whatever for any Commissioners to ' take one dollar of stock in the Snruce 1 Creek or Northern Central Railway com- I panies. They can not do it if they would, j The SECOXDllegation is that Messrs. JlCMMEf., fcCHOCn and LINCOLN lfM . and bad promised to take Railroad stock !

The "outsiders" heard of no appointmcut of Delegate State Conv. next year, or of Senatorial or Kcprcseu la tive Conferees, but the "insider" claimed that the latter were appointed. The whole proceeding shows a determi nation, on the part of a few, to keep up the local quarrel among the Whigs of tho county, even when its last occasion the location of a county seat will soon be settled. The speech of Mr. Weirick was a ming ling of denunciations against Stringfellow and Seliusgrove Nebraskality and Lewis burg. He described Svlinsgrove aud Lew isburg as extremely, dangerously unheal thy and the same of MifHiutowjj in Juni ata county ; and if people had believed all ho said, n'lU'dy would dare to vote for ! any of tV.-o scats of justice.

On Sunday morning of last week, a fire broke out io Carbondalc, in a room occupied by a cir cus coinpinr, and before it could be arrest ed destroyed a large portion of the build ings of tiiat ii'.tle city. The loss by the fire we Lave seen estimated as high as 100, 000, of which the most was insured, but it is supposed the Lycoming company will lose $15,000 or 820,000 by the fire, the Franklin company also a large sum, and other companies smaller sums. The poli- dale, were rather larger than they com monly are. More Corn. Dr. Locke of Lewisburg last week brought iu a stalk of corn 15 feet high with two cars ; and Dr. Gcrhart of Lcwisburg one 14 feet high with three good cars and one imperfect one.

But, how can that union be tffec j ted, by wLich that voice may be heard ? : Hy a union of votes on ONE MAN for Ca- n d Commissioner! Of itself, the elect ion ! of a Canal Commissioner is of little im - ! portanee, for the Board would still remain ! entirely in the control of the so-called De mocracy. But its injtuenee as a popular test on the great Natiuual question, would be felt throughout the Union The Wllios say, " we have been, as a i State party, always right ; let the other parties come with us, and elect Joseph Henderson, our unexceptionable candi date." The Americans declare, " As a. party in this State, we are sound on the Slavery question ; let old party differences be forgotten, and, each yielding a little, nnite upon one broad platform, and honest Peter Martin, our nominee." And the Rei'Uulicans say, "Wc present to you a candidate so peculiarly situated that he would command fur the greatest vote, and wo would also show sympathy with him and strike terror to Slavcocracy every where, by uniting upon Passuiore William son."

That was one of the causes of Clay's defeat and the triumph of Slavery in the annexation of Texas and for that very fraud, Kane was rewarded Ly an elevation to the bench he now disgraces. The Foresight of our Fathers. Mr. Berrian states, in his American let ter, that prior to 1800, the annual foreign immigration was not over 5000. In 1787, when the Federal Constitution was form ed, the Washington, Franklins, Madi sons, Shermans, and Haniiltons that made it, deemed it their duty to provid 1st. That the President of tha Unitcd States should be a native born citizen. Sd. That the Army of the United States should be in Lis native loru American hands. 3d. That the Navy of tho Unitcd States should bo under native bora American control. 4th. That Treaties should be organized and made by a native born citizen. 5th. That Federal appoiutments and patronage should come from this native born American source. Gth. That the militia of the several States when called into the service of the Unitcd States, should bo under tho Presi dent's native born command. 7th. That only a native born citizen should Lave the Federal veto power. 8th. That the Vice President of the United States should be a native. 0th. That thus that branch of govern mentthe three branches of the Legisla ture which makes Treaties and confirms Federal appointments, should have a na tive to preside over it. 10th. That in case of a tio vote ic the Senate, a native only should have the cas ting rote. 11th. That Congress and the President should make uniform naturalization laws that President a native. 12th. That to Le a Senator io Congress ono must Lirve been naturalized nine years. 13th. That to be a Representative one must have been naturalized seven years.

Farm Yard Poultry. From time to time the columns of the "Poultry Chronicle" have urged the neces- sity of increased care and attention to farm yard stock. It must be apparent to any person conversant with tho amount of 1 poultry and eggs annually required in the United Kingdom, and the large quantify : 0f breeding poultry kept ou farms, that the produce is not cqnal to tho demand, ; tbe name of apiolj equivalent to q-iinin-. nor does it reach the amount it ooght to j ;n the ireMmtnt of the local intermittent do ; this arises chiefly from farthers keep-1 feTer9. ing bad small stock, breeding in, and re-1 "; ; taiuing old and useless birds.

The followiug figures will show i i , that the trade is very considerable, they refer only to the quantities brought into two of th? principal London markets,and are as follows : Eggs Fowls Pigeons Turkeys Gecso Ducks 75,000,000 2,00(1,000 400,000 100,000 100,000 300,000 In addition to these quantities, the vast amount sent to poulterers and private hous es must be considered. It U difficult to say what proportion of this comes from abroad, but the fact that sixty million of eggs are imported annually from France, aud that the Brighton Railway alone car ries yearly about 2,600 tuns of eggs bronght from Belgium and France, are fair indications as to the rest. If this very large trade is so valuable to foreigners, it must be apparent to any poultry keeper that the British producers should take steps to secure it for themselv es. It is notorious that this year there has been a great want of ponltry, not only in London, hut in poulterer's shops through out the kingdom, and it is equally well known that, except in London or some of' the largest towns, a good plump well fed fowl is nvcr f juu 1 This i the result uf ' tbc present farm-yard system, if sneb care lessness can be called f ysteni.

It can scarcely be doubted that the bent stock for table purposes is the Dorking ; the varieties Lave been mentioned beforo in these pages. Those who wish to breed a very large bird should procure the light grey or speckled kinds ; those who wish to have a moderate plump bird may get the Silver Grey variety, snmetimesnown as "Lord Hill's breed." These birds aro to their larger brethren what the South down shc p is to the Leicester, and other larger varieties, and they Lave one advan tage to the fancier, viz , that they breed true to color,whicb the larger birds do not, and there are few things more agreeable in ponltry keeping than a yard filled with evenly-marked birds, all alike ; but what ever breeding stock may be decided upon, no poultry keeper who wants eggs should be without Cochin ct Brahma pallets : as winter layers they are invaluable, and pro dace a constant supply when fresh eggs command a high price. If Ducks arc kept, the Rouen or Aylesbury will answer best ; and if Turkeys are required, the Norfolk ' or Cambridge birds will make as fine meat as need do wisnca. .-in. Ayricuimrw. To stop Potatoes Rotting. An experienced agriculturist imforro ns that about six years ago be applied diked lime to potatoes that were partly rotten, and that it immediately arrested the decay. Potatoes that were partly rot ten when the lime was applied, remained as they were, the progress of the rot being stopped, while potatoes to which the lim was not applied, continued to rot and wew lost. Since then he bas mado it a con stant practice to apply slaked slime to his potatoes as he takes them up. He puts k ttlin aycr of j;me up(m floor were tu. potatoes are to be kid, and sprinkles som of it over the potatoes about every tea inches, as they are put down. The Virtues op Parsley.
