Tlie Next Election.
TWc noiico with much pleasure says the Daily
...News the active preparations on the part of the
, Whigs in the several counties of the interior , for
. the coming State election. The importance of the
canvass cannot be lost sight uf. Upon it, in a
Ureal measure, depends our future prosperity.
The contest is -with an unscrupulous opposition,
whose every measure of public policy, as we have
unfortunately seen them carried out in past years,
has been to cripple home industry, and make us
subservient to foreign capital. Our agriculturists
have been told they must look to Europe for a
market, and our manufacturers, whether of fabrics
or iron, have been irretrievably .ruined in their ef
forts to contend against a policy which seeks rath
er to reward foreign than home labor, and places
Jn competition with our own artizans,lhe half-clad,
half-starved paupers of Europe. Such is not the
policy of Pennsylvania. It is her policy to devel
op her vast resources to foster agriculture to
fill her valleys and manufactories, and to swarm
her mountains with miners ; to give constant and
profitable employment to her people to make her
railroads and canals productive, and to, release
her citizens from the enormous taxes and heavy
debt which now hangs over them. From the ru
inous policy which has been forced upon us, the
strong arms and stout hearts of our people, strug
gling as liiey have been against treachery and cor
ruption, most strenuously appeal.
In view of the vast interests involved in the is
"sue now presented, the importance of sustaing the
present administration rises far above all partisan
obligations or prejudices. If the Whisr cause shall
Air . - . ... .
... , . ,
victory, will be in a great measure lost to us. If j
... i ii -ii i ii iit i ii i
it shall succeed, all will be well. We shall have I
once more a tariff, and protection to our domestic
.industry, upon a firmer basis than it has ever be
fore stood; and .our forges, manufactories and
mines, guarded against the blighting effects of a
free trade policy, will spring into new life, enrich
ing both labor and the State.
If every Whig in Pennsylvania will "but give a
few hours to the cause, all our great interests will
be safe. Let every Whig perform his full duty
let no one be found wanting in zeal. The cause
is worthy of the effort every dictate of prudence
demands it.

The Strange Forgery Case at He w Or
leans to be Explained. ,
Some time since we published a singular story
of a young Iench girl (Wile Elise Clement) with
a New Orleans merchant named Callot she hav
ing told her intended husband before marriage that
ho was worth some $20,000 in hard cashi exhib
iting notes of responsible persons to that amount.
One of these notes was that of -Mr. Michoud,, a
responsible man, but he unfortunately pronounced
it a forgery, when it was presented for payment.
'Klise heard of this while with her husband in
'-New York. She appeared to be much astonished,
solemnly declaring that Michoud had her money.
She immediately went back to New Orleans, but
was arrested for forgery. She asserts that , she
can prove the signature of Mr. Michoud to be gen -'
Vino, and' she is anxious to have the matter inves
tigated. The-whole affair is involved , in mystery,
and, we are as yet unable to form .any opinion in
regard to it. The accused asserts that she was
.for a considerable length of time upon the most
intimate terms with Mr. Michoud, and that the
ronseo4uencespksuch intimacy wilLshohly-appear.

Some of the papers call the trial of Walker, for
the murder of his wife, a " farce ;" it is rather an
expensive one, howover, both for the county and
the friends of the accused. It is said that Mr.
Walker's father has expended over $20,000. Each
witness brought from St. Louis was paid 151300,
and one of the counsel employed for the defence
received,we understand, $200 a day during the
trial ! The cost to the County must have been
about $12,000: 2V. Y. Mercury.

The following letter is nearly as lateas anything
lira liitn Tvnm f (in
actual workings in j the Gold
Region of California. It was written to Mr. James
Spears of Lafayette, la. by a young man from that
(Tippecanoe) County, and by. Mr. S. communica
ted to the Lafayette Daily Journal :
Gold Minks, Feb. 26, 1849.
When. I left home, it was with the intention of
going to Oregon ; but happily for me, I changed
my mind at Fort Hall, and came direct to Califor
nia, where I landed among the gold mines up to
my eyes. The first two weeks I dug $275 worth
ofgold. Since that I have dug $1,000 worth more,
frequently digging as high as $50 worth per day.
It i3 common to dig from one to five ounces per
day ; and not unfrequently men dig from $300 to
$500 worth per day.
This you can rely upon as true ; for I have my
self seen it. These mines excel any in the world.
Their exact extent is not known. They seem
to follow the range of the mountains North and
South. They are known to be one thousand miles
in length ; and their width has not been ascer
tained. The gold is found in large chunks. I
know of one which weighs 26 pounds.
The Gold seems to have been melted and from
all appearance these" mountains have been volca
nic. Blown, as it is, from the face of almost
everything, goes to prove the supposition.
I have no room for a farther detail of the mines,
but if I live to get back again, I will show you a
sample of Gold. This is the place to make a for
tune, but I would advise nobody to bring a family,
for it is a mixed multitude from all parts of the
world. Vice of all kinds is without bound. I
saw three men hung almost without judge or jury.
I can give you no description of the country, for
I have not seen much of it. 1 have not seen a
house since I left the settlements. If I keep my
health this season, 1 shall have all the gold I want.
1 intend to work during the good weather and then
leave for home. I have traveled the wide and ex
tensive plains, and have seen the numerous Buf
falo herds, and the various tribes of Indians ; and
intend to ride the billows of the Pacific on my
way home. JOHN HARE.
Freaks of Xa&Iiliiiug.
On Saturday, 9lh inst. there was a terrible thun
der storm at Rochester and Buffalo, during which
a large number of buildings in both places were
damaged by the electric fluid. In Rochester, the
louse of Washington Gibbons, was struck, the
fluid passing from a tree to the tin conductor of
the house, melting it, and tearing off the clapboards
right and left, made its way into the building,
through a closet, then through the chimney, and
out at the other side of the house.
The inmates of another house who were Ger
mans, were engaged in the usual evening prayers,
when their house was stuck, and a young woman
knocked down, but not seriously injured. The
fluid also passed down the lightning rod of the
Brick Church, and tore up the ground at its foot.
It also passed down the chimney of Miss Allen's
Seminary to the cellar. Two or three Telegraphic
wires were cut off.
Mr. Bishop's house on Jay street, was struck
and considerably injured.
The house of Judge Buell, west of the city was
badly injured, its lightning-rods furnishing no pro
tection. At Buffalo, the storm was equally severe. The
southwest pinnacle of the main tower of St. John's
Church was struck by lightning and shattered the
fluid passing down and bursting out through the
wood work which encloses the upper section of
the tower, on three sides, doing considerable dam
age. The choir of the Church were rehearsing at
the time, immediately under a portion of the tow
er, but'received no other injury than a severe shock
and something of a fright.
A Journeyman tailor was leaning against the
counter in a store, in company with two or three
others during the storm. While in this position,
the lightning tore off the tails of his coat and
struck his hands doing no other injury. A prompt
application of cold water to his hand soon relieved
him 'from pain ; and it is presumed he will readi
ly repair the damage of his coat.
The Oldest Alan in America.
The American Bible Society Record for May,
says that :
' George Buckhart, living in Harlan County,
Ky., is the one of the most extraordinary men of
the age, and perhaps is the oldest man now known
to be living. He is one hundred and fourteen
years old ; was born in Germantown, Pennsylva
nia, and has lived for several years in a hollow
sycamore tree, of such large dimensions as to con
tain his family, consisting of a wife and five or
six children, bed and bedding, cooking utensils,
&c." The exploring agent of the American Bible
Society, in his travels in Kentucky, recently found
him, and also saw several gentlemen who had
spent one or more nights with him in this singu
lar home. He professes to hold the Lutheran
faith, being of a German family, and received tho
Bible with peculiar manifestations of gratitude.
What a life for one man to spend ! What a train
of events has marked this century through , which
he has drawn the thread of existence."

John Quincy Adams.
A life of this distinguished man, by Governor
W. H. Seward, of New York, has just been pub
lished. The last scene of his life is thus impres
sively described in it :
" He could not shake off the dews of death that
gathered on his brow. He could not pierce the
thick shades that rose before him. But he knew
that eternity lay close by the shores of time.
He knew that eternity lay close by the shores of
time. He knew that his Redeemer lived. Elo
quence, even in that hour, inspired him with his
ancient sublimity of utterance. 'This,' said the
dying man, ' is the last earth I' He paused for a
moment, and then added, I am content !' Angels
might well draw aside the curtains of the skies to
look down on such a scene."
Odd Follows' Celebration.
The occasion of the dedication of the new Odd
Fellows' Hall, at the corner of Grand and Centre
streets, N. Y., on the 4th isnt., was one of unusu
al display and splendor, and the ceremonies were
most imposing. The building is one of the finest
in the country, 78 by 74 feet, built of free stone,
and cost $120,000. Tjje corner stone was laid
on the 4th of June, 1847. There were at least
4,000 members of the Order in the procession, and
Horn RrKneass, Esq., Grand Sire of the United
States, officiated at the dedication.
The system of granting divorces runs to a fear
ful extent in some of the Stales. We see it sta
ted that in one case before the Connecticut Legis
lature, the husband asked divorce because the wife 1
was insane when he married her. In another, the
wife asked divorce because her husband was " a
very uncomfortable fellow any how" " put dead
chickens in her tea pot" u went to bed with his
boots on," &c. In this last case the divorce was
granted " right off" in the other under certain
modifications. It is time measures were taken to
check legislative disposition to grant divorces.

Taylor. He now holds the office of First Assist
ant Postmaster, undera Whig administration which
his friends denounce with a ruthlessness unparal

1829, gave. the following toast, at a political festi
val in Washington :
" Toast by' the Hon. Mr. Hobbie. The President

The Gallant Hungarians. Despatches
had been received in Loudon announcing the
defeat of the Russians by ihe Magyars, amlihu
capture of 36.000 prisoners and an immense
quantity of arms and munitions of war! This
intelligence, which came in the shape of an
official proclamation of General Kossuth, U
confirmed by a letter to the house of Roths
child, from Frankfort-on-lhe-Maine, dated May
17th. The letter adds that the Russians bJ
fallen back on Cracow. If these reports ate
true, and they are apparently from authentic
sources, the Russian invasion may prove a fail
ure, for Poland and Gallicta will assuredly rise
and join the Hungarians if the seat of war h
transferred to those territories. The Czar'i
army of half a million would be a mere mouth
ful for such a combination, if animated by oris
spirit, and led by such chief as Kossuth and
Bern. The dismembered kingdom of Poland
alone contains twenty millions of inhabitants,
and'those who remember tho gallantry with
which Warsaw was defended by a mere hand
ful' of Poles against the vast army of Diesbitcb,
will admit that the Sarmation soldiery are
worthy brothers-in-arms for the legions of
Hungary. Well may the monarchs of Russia,
Austria, and Prussia lock arms and swear fideli
ty to each other. The Philistines are upon them!
