L. that neither Curtin nor any of the rest of
the ettnning wireworkert who have charge of

see a Tariff bill passed by the present Congress,
because if it should be passed part of their pro•

hue and cry on the Tariff for the purpose of
gulling th 4 people into the support of tie Re

fy his conduct to those who feel a deep interest
in this Tariff question in his own State! What
will he say in justification of his backing out
at Baltimore, and staying from Washington till
he supposed the Tariff bill was killed ! for, be
it remembered, that Curtin did not make his
appearance at Washington till the morning of
the Sth inst , and the resolution to adjourn had
passed the day before. This attempt, on the
part of Curtin, to create the belief that he de
sired the passage of the Tariff bill, by going to
Vinhington, not , at the eleventh hour, but af
ter all the work bad been done by others, is
too transparent, and will not win. Why was
he not at Washington, like his manly competi
tor, aiding by the weight of his presence and
the prestige of his position, to pass • bill so
vital to the interests of Pennsylvania The
true answer is, he does not want a Tariff bill
passed, and his conduct proves it.

Dena Bta : —Esteeming you to be s personal
Mend and a *ood Republican, I take the liber
ty qaddressikg you and saying that I shall be
a candidalvi before the approaching county
Conventions and conference, of Crawford au.l
Erie, fur nomination to a second term in Con
gress, and would feel utyself much obliged, as
I ant sure I would be touch benefitted by the
efficient and valuable aid which it is happily
in your power to render me iu your vicinity.
A favorable mention of my name as a candidate
for Congress among your Republican neigh-
bore—an early attendance on the day, and at
the place appointed in your District, for elect
ing dedegates to the County Convention, and
endeavor to have them instructed to support
my nominst:on, would place me under a high,
but agreeable obligation, which would be re
membered, and the favor of which I would ever
be most happy to reciprocate in any way in my
power.
I am they solicitous on the subject, because
the custom of allowing to amenities of Congress
a second term has been so uniform among all
parties, that a failure to du so, (whatever the
real cause may be,) is universally considered as
a censure upon either the official ur private
conduct of the member thus discarded. The
high estimation in which I hold the good opin
ion of my fellow citizens, impels me seriously
to deprecate, and to seek to avoid, whatever
might imply such censure.
The handsome vote I received when first
elected, I view with gratitude, as evidence of
the esteem in which I was then held by the Re
publicans of the district, and of their confidence
in my capacity and sound Republican princi
ples; and hope and trust that I have since
done nothing to forfeit that esteem and confi
dence : And sure I ant that the practical knowl
edge I have acquired, ka knowledge which
nothing but practice can impart,; of the rules
and mode of transacting business in COngress,
will enable me to render more efficient service
during a second term than I way. or mild
have heretofore performed.
With sentiments of most high respect.

sir We see by the New York papers that a
new Religious daily-is about to be started in
that city, to be called "The World." The
prospectus of this new candidate opens with a
statement that the time has come for living
Christianity to assert itself in secular journal
ism, and it states that the capital is supplied
by members of various Christian denominations.
In all departments of news, The World is to be
reliable and "authentic," and it will be inde
pendent in polities.
"It will keep true to the doctrine of the
Father of the Republic, that slavery is it moral,

can be safely and effectually treated only by
those who have a legislative and legal juris
diction over it. Recognizing the duty of both
the Federal Government and of the States to
keep strictly to their own respective constitu
tional spheres, this paper will oppose, on the
one band, any action of the Federal Govern
ment towards planting slavery where it does
not exist, and, on the other hand, any nction
by the Federal Government, or by the nun
slaveholding States, towards uprooting the in
stitution where it does exist. While it will
entertain nu fear for, and listen to no threats
against the Union, it will ever be thr.roughly
national in its tone, ever on the side of the
Constitution and the laws, and, by just state
ment and calm appeal, will seek to allay the
sectional discord which designing and hut
headed partixans labor to excite "
The World is to be one cent per copy' It will
be published morning and afternoon. From
the fact that Cruutss. late of the Philadelphia
Badlehn, is the 'lather" of this concern, we
are inclined to think that it will be devoted
more to "the world, the flesh, and the devil,'
than to pure Christianity.

Mr. Babbitt would ask a re-nomination .—and
hence ha assures his Republican friends if he
shall be presented by the Erie Coaferees, it is
his desire, and he has at all times so expressed
himself, that he shall receive the nomination
in which event, ho will most certainly have his
cordial support. And it is proper for /um to
say further, that should Erie county present
for nomination any one of her able men, whose
names have been mentioned in connection with
the office, fur the approaching term, it is his
wish, that the nomination be at once yielded
by Crawford county " Magnanimous Rich

down as the year of Tornadoes. The Western
and Middle States have been visited by four
within the space of a fortnight ; One extending
from Louisville to Central Ohio one in Cat
tarengus County in New York ; one in Arm
strong and Clarion and some of4.he adjoining
counties in this State, and one l in lowa and
Western Illinois. The last surpassed all the
others in violence and destru ctiveness By
the storm along the Ohio not less than 100 lives
were lost, mostly in coal boats ; by the one in
this State some 10 or 12 victims Tare reported ;
the loot and greatest visitation, in lowa and
Illinois, has left at least 150 dead bodies, with
more than double that number of persons in
jured or dying. The number of deaths which
may be placed to the account of the wind storms
within the lost month is not less than 300. The
destruction of property is incalculable ; in the
City of Alton alone the total loge is estimated
at 1i200,000. and in Camanche, $250,000.
Whole counties are mourning, and many per
sons will Ming remember with sorrow the re
markable wind storms of 1860.
air The boy Budget understands that John
Mortissey, the pugilist, is to go immediately
into training at the "Abbey," with a view of
fighting Heenan in August. He has left New
York, and expresses his determination to van
quish the Champion of the World, notwith
standing he (Morrissey) is threatened with
sosinuoption.
sar Tom Bayees and Jack Heenan are each
to have a fee simile of thechampion belt ; have
become the best of friends, and are to give
sparring exhibitions first in England, and next
in the United States. Now, to have a silver
belt around yon, and your pockets filled with
gold is a much happier finale than most fights
come to. We, therefore, hope that the admir
ers of the manly art of self-defence will be en
tirely satisfied with the gold and glory won by
Sayers and Heenan, and that we shall have no
more announcements to make about the fist
cuffs of these unmitigated bullies. Bull-dogs,
wild-cats, hyenas or tigers could, any ~f thAtu,
whip either Sayers or Heenan.
sir The Republican papers are just now
engaged in publishing the letters of acceptance
of Mr Abraham Lincoln and Hannibal Ham
lin. Mr. Lincoln says. "the declaration of
principles and sentiments" of the Chicago Con
vention meets his approval, and it shall be his
"care not to violate or disregard it in any part."
Hr. Hamlin writes more in detail ; and con
cludes by saying that if the Republicans suc
ceed, "as they hope to," they "will be held in
grateful remembrance by the busy and teeming
millions of rummages." If brevity in, ay assert
