Address to our Patrons
As was announced last week, the Jeffersonian
Republican will hereafter be edited and published
under the joint control of the subscribers. By this
arrangement, the political complexion of the pa
per will undergo no change. It will, as heretofore,
continue to support the cause of Democratic-Whig
principles principles, upon the triumph of which,
we honestly believe, the best interests of the coun
try -depend.
In our efforts to assist in carrying cut those
principles, it will become our duty to advocate, the
-establishment of a sound and uniform currency, to
supply the place of the present depreciated and
worthless trash which disgraces the name. The,
prosperity of the country requires its establish
ment. Without it, the financial and commercial
affairs of the people must continue deranged and
unsettled, and the every day concerns of- our citi
zens become still more uncertain than they even
are at present. To be thoroughly good, we must
have a currency which not only passes free at
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, but one which is
equal in Maine and Louisiana,
Arood and sufficient Tariff for the Protection
of American Industry, is another cardinal princi
ple of policy connected with the institutions of the
United States. It is necessary to our very exis
tence as a free and independent nation. Unless
protective duties are laid upon foreign productions,
pur manufacturers may as" well at once close up
their workshops, and our miners cease operations
in their coal and iron mines, for the twelve and a
half cent a .(lay pauper labor of Europe will soon
compel them to do it. Till all foreign ports are
opened for the free admission of our vessels and
their cargoes, we can never acknowledge the prin
ciples of free trade.
The distribution of the Proceedsof the Sales of
the. Public Lands, is a question of vkal interest to
the Old States of the Union. The lands original
ly belonged to them, and when the Constitution of
the United States was adopted, they ceded them
to the Federal Government in Trust for them
selves. The sons of the " Old Thirteen,11 in the
stormy days of the Revolution shed their blood
and perilled their lives for their acquisition, and
surely now, that these stales have become involv
ed in debt by means of canals and rail roads which
were, among other things, constructed to make
these very lands valuable, it is no more than right
that the proceeds of their sales should be paid
over into the coffers of their original owners.
In advocating these and other equally salutary
principles of public policy, we shali'do so with a
just and delicate regard to the feelings of those
who differ with us in opinion. It is one of the
glorious provisions of our Constitution that every
man,'however humble, shall have the uncontrolled
-exercise of his own opinion, and we shall ever
Imttie -for the maintenance of that right. It is
impossible, from the very nature and constitution
of things, that all men should always think alike ;
"tuat'being tho case, we shall be very careful, how
ve impugn the character or motive of any man
?H:o may happen to differ from us, and we shall
.never do so unless we -have the strongest reasons,
antl "feel imperatively calied upon as public jour
nalists to do so in the consciencious discharge of
cur duties. We shall endeavor to live on terms of
peace and friendship with all men.
We shall make arrangements, as soon as possi
ble, to procure-the services -of able and efficient
correspondents, at various places throughout the
country, who will keep us advised of the earliest
3iews, and otherwise enrich car columns with their
Jiterary and scientific productions.
From the high tone and moral character of the
JerTexsonian Republican, as well as Its firm devo
tion Jo principle, ever since its first establishment,
the public will have a sure guarantee of its future
-excellence. Added to this will be the advantages
secured to it by the new co-partnership.
Il is'boped that the efforts which will thus be
;rnade,.iiot only to maintain the good standing of
thepapur, but greatly to increase it in interest and
usefulness, will be promptly met by a jcorrespond-
;rtg iacrease in patronage.

Republican.
tin entering upon my duties as co-Editor of this
er,"l beg leave to say a few words by way of
introducing myself to those with whom I hope to
lie so intimately connected hereafter. . I was born
jn Oxford, Granville county, North Carolina, and
eqred at Norfolk, Va , from whence 1 removed to
J'thabeth town, New Jersey, where my father-the
Rov. S. K. Kollock resided until a few years ago,
when heenoved to Burlington, where he now has'
4he 'Charge of a Presbyterian Congregation. In
I333,4I removed to Eastnn, Pa. in which place I
jSfsrvrtdtmy apprenticeship to the printing business.
have now come J reside among ygu, and make
Monroe County myuture home. In doing so, I
have been iiitfluenced ,not only by the attractions of
jta rich .fertile valleys, -and jjagnificent mountain
scenery, "but also by the .noble, generous, and man
ly cnaracler of its inhabitants.
In principle I am a firm Democratic Whig, and
in my editorial capacity shall endeavor, to the best
of my ability to impress the importance of Demo
cratic Whig doctrines. At the same time, howev
er, I shall also endeavour to impress the idea that
I ttm no bigot. My political opponents shall always
find me a fair and candid antagonist; and I trust
a warm.and sincere personal friend.
With these few remarks, having already entered
fully into a detail above of the principles, &c.
which shall be my guide in conducting the paper,
I take my leave for the present.
' THOMAS L. KOLLOCK.
Flic Rate Casualty.
We last week gave a hurried account of the sad
calamity which took place on Wednesday morning
in Pocono township. Since then, a.few'additional
details have reached us, and the melancholy feel
ing occasioned by the horrible dealh of the four
inmates of Mr. Peter Brell's house, has if any
thing been heightened. The house it appears
look fire from the heat of the stove pipe, about one
o'clock in the morning, when all the inmates were
resting in imagined security. Mr. B's daughter, a
young married -woman 23 years old a young man
aged 20 and two children, one 10 years and the
other S months old, were asleep in the second sto
ry, and perished in the flames. The wife of Mr.
Ii. who slept below, was also so severely burned,
that she is not yet considered out of danger. The
house was burned to the ground, and every thing
it contained was destroyed. Among the ruins, the
heart of one of the sufferers, and the arm and crof
another was found the day after the fire: It sel
dom falls to the lot of newspaper publishers to re
cord a more heart-rending tale than the above.
The young and interesting mother, and her inno
cent babe ; the young man just emerging into the
estate of manhood, and the lively playful boy, full
of happiness and hope, all destroyed at a moment
when sleep had laid his balmy hand upon their
breasts, and they were lost in unconsciousness.
How intense too must be the distress of the sur
viving friends, deprived as they are of their rela
tives and property. The latter may, it is true, be
made up to them by the liberal hand of kind
neighbors and friends ; but who can restore to
Jiem the lost ones, or give them consolation in
their distress. The power of Omnipotence alone
can db that.
nollics Culprit.
We learn from the City papers that on Wednes
day morning last, John Porter, a nephew of Gov.
Porter, was placed upon his trial in the Court of
Quarter Sessions of Philadelphia, for the Larceny
of money and various articles of dry goods to the
value of near one thousand dollars, from his em
ployers, Messrs. R. & W. Warnoek, jn whose
store he has acted as Clerk for about a year ; du
ring which time he has been lavishing the most
costly and magnificent articles upon a female na
med Mary Sheets, who resided in a house of ill
fame. A gold watch worth S100, breastpins, fin
ger rings, lace, stockings, dresses, $c. which from
time to time he had given to her, were displayed to
the multitude who thronged the Court-room.
The prisonci's own confessions were brought
against him, whilst the fallen girl surrendered up
the articles, and stated that she had received them
from Porter. Mr. R. Warnoek, in his cross-examination,
testified that an offer of $1000 had been
made him providing the matter .was not made pub
lic, "as the young man might possibly obtain a sit
uation in the Sheriffs his Cousins) Office.11
The case occupied the attention of the Court
till late in the afternoon, when the Jury retired to
their room, from which they returned about half
past 6 o'clock in the evening with a verdict of
guilty. A motion was immediately made by the
prisoner's counsel, for a new trial, and that he
might in the mean time be admitted to bail, which
the Judge fiscd at $3000. No bail, however, was
offered, and Master John, was handed over to his
Cousin the Sheriff, for safe keeping.
Wise asad Cashing.
Since the rejection of these two worthies by the
Senate, as Minister to France, and Secretary of
the Treasury, Captain Tyler has determined that
they shall go home and run for Congress, before
he will offer them any more places He wishes :
their constituents to re-elect them, in order to re
pel the aspersions vvlikh he says the Senate cast;
upon them. Wise, in obedience to his master's
bidding, has already offered himself to the voters
of his District, for a scat in the next Congress,
and Cushing will probably, ere long do like-wise,
Wise boasted once, on the floor of Congress, hat
there was no newspaper printed in his district,
and he may therefore through the ignorance of tho
people, be returned, but as for Cushing, there is
too much patriotism in Old Massachusetts ; aye
and too much intelligence too, to endorse his apos
tacy and treason.
Secretary i War.
The rumor we gave last week that James M.
Porter had been appointed Secretary at War, is
confirmed, and that individual is now regularly in
stalled a3 one of Captain Tyler's Constitutional
Advisers. Alas, that the. head of the A'rmy should
ever have been disgraced by such a man as he w.ho
was cashiered for unbecoming conduct and had
his sword taken from him at Shell Pot Hill, during
the late War. A friend, at our elbow, consoles
himself with Viin idea of- the additional strength
which will be secured to our borders by this new
appointment. He thinks that Porter and Daniel
M. Brodhead will ha -tide to manage the hostile
Indians, so that no danger need be apprehended
from them in the event of a war.
. (Lr'&ook fSere
In the last number of the Clarion Republican, a
paper printed at Clarion Pa. we notice a letter
from the Hon. William Jack,-Member of Congress
from this State, in which he gives a recapitulation
of a number of new mail-routes, to carry the mail
over, for which proposals will be received at the
Post Office Department in Washington. Among the
rest, we notice that there is one connected with a
very impoitant route, in this county. It is to car
ry the mail from Stioudsburg by Spring Mills to
Bushkill, 19 miles and back, once a week. Leav
ing Stroudsburgh every Tuesday at 5 o'clock,
A. M. to arrive at Bushkill at 12 o'clock Mr Leave'
Bushkill every Tuesday at 1 o'clock P. -M. and
arrive at Stroudsburgh the same day, at 8 o'clock
P. M. v
The proposals will be to carry the Mail on the
above route, from the Ist of July 113, to the 30th
of June 18-16, and will be received at the Depart
ment until 3 o'clock on the 13th of April 1813.
We hope that some of our spirited citizens will
busy themselves about the matter, and see that the
contract is taken. It is of great importance to
the interests and business of the- County, that we
should have as many mail routes within our bor
ders as possible. Therefore, when the Depart
ment offers us such facilities, we should not over
look them.
A COBJECt.
During tho clear evenings of the past week, a
Comet of unusual size and brilliancy was visible
in our Western heavens. By observations made
in Philadelphia, it has been ascertained that the
Comet has already passed the Sun, and is now on
its way, tail foremost, to the regions from whence
it came.
Tha ILegisaaiKre.
The only business of importance, which we re
member, transacted in either House last week,
was a disgraceful rupture in the Senate, between
Mr. Champneys, of Lancaster, and Mr. McCully,
of Philadelphia county, and a similar occurrence
in the House betwcenMr. Hinchman of the city
and Mr. Deford, of Fayette. Committees of in
quiry, in both cases, have been appointed. Thus
is the time and money of the people squandered.
"
CorrcclioBi.
In our Congressional news of last week, we
mentioned the name of Washington Irving, as our
Minister to Great Britain, and the newly confirmed
Minister to China. It should have been Edward
Everitt. He is at present our Minister in England,
and has been confirmed for the- new Mission to
China: The most of the edition was printed be
fore the error was discovered, and we therefore
make the necessary correction now.
Economy of a Specie Cwrreiacy.
The Receirer of the Dixon land office pass
ed through town on Saturday last on his way
to St. Louis, with $30,000 in specie. To con
vey this sum it was necessary to employ two
waggons, and three men, making, with the re
ceiver himself two for each waggon. They
left Dixon on Monday previous, and in conse
quence of the inclement weather and bad roads,
did not arrive here, though the distance is over
ninety miles till Friday night, finding the river
closed, the party went on by land and will pro
bably reach St. Louis in tho course of nest
week.
It is estimated that it will cost upwards of 200
dollars to transport this money to St. Louis.
We have been advised that it cost just about
200 dollars Jo collect a draught last fall sent
by the treasury department to the person hav
ing charge of the woik of improving the navi
gation of the Mississippi just below St. Louis;
and we are also advised that it cost about 400
dollars to collect a draught of about 30,000
sent to Prarie dn Chien the present winter.
On the latter occasion, one item was the pay
ment of 70 dollars fur transporting tho specie
in the state from Dixon to Galena which is
about half way to tho Prairio.
Who pays the enormous tax ? Does the
Government or tho draft-holder 1 In either
case it is certainly oppressive.
How beautifully the system works ! Peoria

Tlze Comet.
Messrs. Eritors : I noticed in your -paper
a few days since something about a comet be
ing in sight. I in vain tried with a small glass
to see it in the day time, and in the evening I
saw only a faint light. Since that time it has
been growing more and more distinct. On Sun
day evening jl was brighter than the zodiacal
light. Last evening I saw it still plainer. This
evening tho nucleus was seen by myself and a
few others, soon after sunset, through the haze
near the horizon". Its Jenghth is 35 or 40 le
grees. It is to be seen clearly rom seven
o'clock until it sets, lis nucleus is quite largo,
and so rare that ii gives but little light. Most
will be ahle onlv to sec its tail, which is certain
Sybeau'iful. It L in the south-western part of
the heavens, and appear to be fast muvtng
southward, so that in a few "days It will cease
to be visible. Yours, &c. P.

native of the ftmerald Isle, died- recently and his
widow was assisted by a warm-hearted oountvy
man in the settlement of the husband's affairs.
Aftpr the interment the undertaker brought in his
bill for the funeral expanses, nmong which was an

Messrs. Editors. The farce of pulling no
ses, and fighting with .umbiellas, came off this
day at one o'clock, just after the curtain fell, at
the close of the comedy, oi the morning ses
sion, in the House of Representatives. During
the regular performance yesterday, Mr. Deford,
who takes pan in every piece lhatcomes up,
whether he is "engaged" or not, was rebuked
before the whole audience, for his meddling
propensities, by Mr. Hinchman, who claimed
to be " manager" of the play then being per
formed. Whereupon Mr. D. pronounced Mr.
ti. a "blackguard" Mr H. then said he should
not make a reply there, for a reply in language
had no effect upon that gentleman, but that he
would pull his nusfl the firs't opportunity that of
fered. Mr. D. was understood to say that he
was welcome to do so. Nothing more was
heard of the matter until the time above men
tioned, when the first thing observed was Mr.
D. striking with an umbrella, over the head of
Mr. Thomas, of Bucks, who was at his heels,
back at the "knowledge box" of Mr. Hinch
man. The latter, as a matter of course, re
turned the salutation, in due form, with the
same kind of weapon.
Mr. Thomas here concluding that he was in
rather a ticklish situation, doged away from be
tween them, and in a moment a ring was in
stinctively formed by the company, and the two
gladiators had a regular set-to, in the area front
ing the Speaker'.-dejk, for two or three minutes.
They handled their silk covered weapons very
dexterously,- until the dry bones not of the
gladiators, but of the umbrellas rattled, to the
great terror of some spectators, and the infinite
amusement of others. It was rather disgrace
ful to see a couple of grave legislators, in the
very hall where laws are enacted, thus openly
and notoriously violating them; but still it was
more ludicrous than any thing else, to see them
do it in such a puerile way, by raising an um
brella above their heads, shutting their eyes,
and bringing it down broad side, in a manner
that would disgrace any battle of broomsticks
ever kicked up by fish women in the market
place.
There is a difference of opinion as to the real
merits of the case; some avering that the gen
tlemen were both very anxious to be separated,
all the while looking wistfully over their shoul
ders, as much as to say, " Wont nobody hold
me?" Others that they were brimful of fight.
1 incline to the latter opinion, and give them
much credit for their choice of weapons, as they
"may live to fight another day." At all events,
the friends of the gentlemen interfered, and they
were separated. Mr. H. went immediately to
his dinner, and Mr, D. remained a few moments
behind, to recover his equanimity. They both
board at the same house, and can light it out at
tho tabic some day. Mr. Hinchman is much
the stouter man of the two.
It is understood that the thing was stirred
up by Mr. Hinchman, who attempted to fulfil
the benevolent purpose intimated by him yes
terday, of pulling Mr. D.s nose, the latter hav
ing expressed some curiosity in regard to the
execution of the design. Whether the tweager
succeeded in performing il to the satisfaction
of the ticeagee, hath not as yet transpired. It
appears however to have taken immediate ef
fect. The Sequel. As soon as the House had met
in the afternoon, Mr. Elton, of Chester, offered
the following, to wit:'
Resolved, That Benj. M. Hinchman, a mem
ber of this House, from the city of Philadelphia,
be and he is.hereby expelled from the said
membership, for the assault ,by him this day
committed on the person of Jno. H. Deford, a
member from the county of Fayette, on the
floor, of this Hall, immediately after adjourn
ment. Said assault having been perpetrated
for words spoken in debate, and therefore a
violation "of the constitution of this Common
wealth. Mr. Lowry moved to amend by substituting
the following:
That a committee of three he appointed to
inquire into and report to this House, whether
any, and xvhat order should be taken on the dif
ficulty which occurred between Benjamin M.
Hinchman, a member from tho city of Phila
delphia, and Jno. H. Deford, a member from
the county of Fayette.
After sorno conversation, the above proposi
tions were withdrawn, and the following; offer
ed by Mr. Elton, was adopted, viz:
Resolved, That a committee of five be ap
pointed, with power to send for persons, and to
inquire into the conduct of Benj. M. Hinchman
and John Ii. Deford, members of this House,
in relation to conduct towards each other on
this floor, on yesterday, and this day immedi
ately after adjournment of tho morning session,
.aid report accordingly.
The commitieo consists of Messrs. M'Cul
loch, Carson, Baily, Kennedy, of Cumb., and
Tustin. And a3 tho affair is lo undergo formal
investigation, I .shall not prejudice the case by
the expression of an opinion upon its merits, or
demerits, father than to say that both gentle
men are of very unparliamentary conduct. But
it seems to mo that all which took place after
adjournment is not within the jurisdiction of
the House. 1 here is another remedy. D.

The New Orleans Tropic of the iSthidr.,
gives this graphic anecdote :
An amusing incident occurred' at Yicksbttrg
while Mr. Clay was on his way lo New Or
leans. After Mr. Clay had received the hear
ty welcome of the genetous Yicksburgers, aii I
taken leave of them, the Rainbow, on which 1
was a passenger, was just about to shove r3
from the landing, when an enthusiastic int
Frenchman a good Whig and well knows,
many of the citizens. of .Mississippi, was s m
rushing down the hill at full speed, crying
"stop de boat! stop do boat ! 1 shall see Mr.
Clay !" He succeeded in getting on board "c
fore ihe plank was pulled in, but in answer t
the remonstrance of the mate that the b-ct
would start before he could have an opport'rr
ty of seeing Mr. Clay, he replied: "Start ai.l
be d d! Suppose you take me to New Or
leans ? I shall not care I have come all i!j
way from Jackson to see Mr. Clay, and h ira
just arrive in de cars, and I shall see him I J
gar!" Saying which he rushed up into tht
cabin, and cleared forhimself a passage through
ihe crowd which surrounded the great ssava
man, placed himself in front of Mr. CiiV
"Are von Mr. Clay?" he- demanded, cl an,
sir," replied Mr. Clay. "Den Sir I shall bo
very happy to make you acquainted wtd me."
I am very happy to make your acquamtace, re
plied Mr. Clay, extending his hand to the g:l
Frenchman; pray sir fa.vor me with your nam?.
'Oh! dam de name,' said the Frenehm in, grasp
ing Mr. Clay's hand, "suppose I tell you ..y
name, you shall not recollect hiui five miiu
I have come all de way from Jackson to sto
you Mr. Clay, and I am so happy you shall not
suppose. 1 novair was so happy but onetime
before, and dat was when I shake hand wid do
grand Napoleon, and I shall nevair cxpec to lo
so happy again till I shake hand wid my Sa
viour in de Kingdom of Heaven. Now I -am
satisfy and I must go. Good, by, Mr. Clay. I
hopo you shall be our next President. By gir
I know you shall. I have bet my whole j
on you, Mr. Clay, and I doni care otto dan it
