House on Tuesday evening, February 12ih. Sub
ject of debate "Should Congress pass a law
preventing the introduction of Slarery into the
newlv acouired Territories. " The members of
the Lenni Lenape Institute will participate in the
discussion.
The citizens of Stroudslnirg and vicinity ore
invited to attend. S. C. BURNETT Sec'y.
A Chance.
A first rate Gunsmith is greatly wanted in this
place, and a sober, industrious man can do well
Henry Clay and Slavery.
Mr. Clay introduced a series of resolutions in
the United States Senate last Tuesday a week, to
settle the whole question of Slavery. He propo
ses to admit California into the Union without
slavery, reduce the boundaries of Texas, and es
tablish Territorial Governments for all the Terri
tories. He made an able speech on the subject.
Locofoco State Convention The Locofoco
State Central committee have fixed upon Williams
port as the place of holding their next state con
vention, to nominate a candidate for canal com
missioher, the time being the 19th of June next.
A New Fraud.
Notes purporting to be issued by the " Farmers
Bank of Harrisburg," (Pa.,) are in circulation in
the West. There is no such concern.
Appointments iy the Canal Commis
sioners. The appointments of the Canal Commissioners,
says the Harrisburg Intelligencer, have been made
and have caused a wonderful fluttering among the
"faithful." A great deal of dissatisfaction exists
in relation to them, and if threats made in a mo
ment of rage and disappointment were not gener
ally unreliable in their nature, we would expect to
have the support of some of these disappointed ap
plicants and removed office-holders, at the next
election of Canal Commissioner. Many curses
are showered on the devoted heads of the Canal
Board, which, however, will have no effect upon
men who for personal aggrandizement are capa
ble of making promises only to break them. Such
is the nature of Locofncoism no member of the
party scarcely, who will lake an office at all, will
give a hearty support to the nominee, unless in the
distance he sees the prospect of an office and some
shining gold. Such men never act from anything
but the basest motives, and it is not surprising that
they aie often disappointed, and that when disap
pointed, they give vent to their rage in language
not the most refined.
Mr. Gamble, ills said, is entirely without influ
encein the Board. His friends have all been
shoved aside to make room, for the favorites of the
old hunkers.
Awful Calamity in New York.
Terrible Explosion One hundred lives' supposed
to be Lost.
A calamity of a terrible character occurred in
the City of New York, on Monday morning last.
The steam boiler in Taylor's machine shop in
Hague street, burst at an early hour, with a terri
ble explosion, causing an awful destruction of
human life. The building was occupied by Tay
lor & Co., and by St. John, Burr & Co., hat ma
kers, both employing a large number of workmen.
Theie were one hundred and twenty-three per
sons in the building at the time; sixty employed
by Taylor & Co , and sixty-three by St. John,
& Co. Of this number it is believed that one
hundred lives were lost
. The engineer in the employ .of Mr. Taylor,
made the fires this morning earlier Jhan. usual, and
the extreme cold and the fact that the fires had
been extinguished on Saturday evening, caused
the boilers to be frosty, and as soon as warm the
explosion followed.
As soon as the explosion took place, the whole
building was raised from its foundation to a height
of about six feet, then tumbled down, crushing
nearly every one in it. The windows in the neigh
borhood were all broken by the force of the ex
plosion. ,
Thirty dead bodies had been taken from the
ruins up to 12 o'clock. Sixty or seventy bodies
are still buried beneath the ruins. Voices are
still heard from amidst the ruins the cries are
most distressing and heartrending.
The losses of Mr. Taylor, machinist, -and St.
John. Burr & Co., hat manufacturers, arcesfima
ted at $70,000. Partly insured.
Wants a Husband.
Miss Mary G. Willis, of Concord, N. II., adver
tises lor a husband. She says she is neither "rich,
fat, nor forty," but only twenty-five, of slight fig
ure, and poor." She is in " peculiar circumstan
ces," which " render it desirable that she should
receive an immediate answer." Somebody might
have compassion on her, in case of satisfactory
explanation as; to the "peculiar circumstances."
During 1849, there were erected in the three
principal cities of the Union, the following number
of new buildings: N. York, new buildings, 1495:
Philadelphia city and liberties, new buildings,
2000; Baltimore, new buildings, 1984.
Some of the friends of Mr. Calhoun assert that
he wjll never again, in any reasonable probability,
be able to take an active part in public affairs, his
health .being completely prostrated. Mr. C. is
now more than seventy years of age,

Singular Freak of Nature.-
The fable of Jphis and lantho, which forms one
of the most striking tales in Ovid's Metamorphoses,
was probably true after all. Just such a thing has
happened in the state of Massachusetts. A peti
tion was yesterday presented to the legislature on
the pari of an individual in the town of Chilmark,
stating that he has a child 15 years old which was
born a female apparently and christened Rebec
ca, but that recently it has manifested itself to be
of the male Sex. He therefore petitions that the
name of this androgynous offspring may be changed
to William. We are informed that this account
is perfectly correct, and that the instance pre
sents one of the most curious cases in physiology.

Discovery of a Northwest Passage.
A letter in the Courier and Enguircr, dated
Mazatlan, Nov. 23d, states that the British frigate
Amphy trite, sloop-ofwar Hecate, and the Thames
yatcht club, schooner Nancy Dawson, arrived on
the 19th inst. from, the Northern Ocean. The
writer affirms that they have discovered a north
west passage in lat. 73 and Ion. about 30, having
gone one degree and a half further north than any
vessel had previously been. He also states that
they discovered a new continent, but on account
of ice could not approach nearer than 15 miles to
land. They did not find Sir John Franklin and on
account of ice were forced to leave.

The important fact taught in the above table, is
that during the administration of Whig treasurers,
between the years 1845 and 1849, the finances of
the State have been in a flourishing condition
and whenever we had Locofoco Treasurers, the
finances were in an unhealthy condition. During
1845 and '46, when Mr. Snowden, (Loco,) was in
office, there was a deficiency pf over two hundred
and seventy-nine thousand dollars, (279,172)
in 1847 when Judge Banks (Whig,) was Treasur
er, there was a surplus in the treasury of two hun
dred and ninety-six thousand dollars, (296,212)
in 1848, during the term of Mr. Plummer, (Loco)
there was a deficiency of one hundred and three
thousand five hundred dollars (103,500)--and in
1849, during Mr. Ball's (Whig), administration,
there was a surplus of over three hundred thou
sand dollars (384,910.) Last year at the recom
mendation of Mr. Plummer, the State Treasurer,
$200,000 was borrowed, to meet the February in
terest, and $55,000 which were to be appropriated
to the payment of outstanding canal debts, were,
we believe, applied to the same purpose. This
year the interest will be paid without the necessi
ty of a resort to a loan, or if any, a very small one.
We have now a Whig Treasurer, last year we
had a Locofoco officer.
The people cannot fail to discover who. are their
true freinds, who are more careful of their inter
ests'. Pa. Intel.
Coffee Its Present Scarcely.
Coffee, which has come to be an article of prime
necessity in this country has been unusually
scarce for a year past, and is now selling all over
the country at greatly advanced prices. Accounts
from abroad do not justify the hope that there will
be a very great decline in price for the present.
The last crop in South America is said to be great
ly deficient, in Java the eruption of a volcano has
destroyed a great number of the coffee trees; in
Venesula, according to letters received recently,
severe rains had greatly reduced the crop ; in
Ilayti, sumptuary laws had prevented its reception
at the various ports, but latterly it was coming in
more freely. The enhanced prices of the article
will take a goodly sum out of the pockets of the
people of this country.
Remarkable JDealh.
An old lady named Montague, of Newpoit, Ky.,
while sitting in her chair at the fireside, on Tues-
day morning, in company with her family, sudden
ly rose from her seat, and requested those present
to go lor certain neijjnours, aimuiy mm sue ue
siired them to come and see her die. She was then
in apparent good health. Her way and manner
were so solemnly and seriously earnest, that her
request was complied with immediately. The
neighbors came : Mrs. M. was seized with sick
ness and carried to bedand died in the presence
of those whom she had sent for! She said, be
fore she died, that she had received a summons
while seated in her chair.
" The itch at Hagerstown'" is not so bad as has
been represented. No schools were dismissed,
but some scholars who had it were; and no fami
lies are down with it, as all who have it are up
and scratching. So says the Pledge.
A clasp, to fasten the bed clothes to the bed
stead and keep restless husbands from "kicking
the kivers .off" their spouses, &c, has recently
been invented in Baltimore.
Iron Trade of the West.
The Cincinnati Chronicle states that there are
in that city six rolling mills, employing 765 hands,
and operating with an aggregate capital of $700i
000. The annual product of the iron manufac
tured at these mills is $1,280,000, and the quanti
ty of material consumed is 21,400 tons. The
number of foundries, engine and machine shops,
&c, is stated to be twenty-six, and the amount of
capital invested in them, $1,448,000. In these,
1,805 hands are annually employed to work up
15,095 tons of iron, which, when manufactured,
produces $2,439,000. There are also sixteen
stove manufactories. These employ 938 hands,
who annually convert 11,325 tons of iron into
stoves, with their appurtenances. The aggregate
amount of capital invested in these establishments
is $617,000, and the annual product of their man
ufactures, $917,000. Including the " ware," and
incidental expenses, the products of stoves and
stove manufactures may safely be estimated, the
Chronicle says, at a million of dollars annually.
The .growth of the iron works has been more rapid
than even the increase of the population.
Iucrcac of Business at the Mint.
Since January 1st, 1849, there has been depo
sited at the mint in Philadelphia, $0,000,000 of
California gold. In the year 1817, there was 510
deposits of gold for coinage; in the month of De
cember, 18-19, there were 545 deposits. We learn
from Messrs. Adams & Co., that they haye, at the
present time, upwards of a hundred deposits at the
mint, waiting for coinage.
A "Itablit Story."
A singular incident occurred, the other day, in
Berks County, which deserves, a notice. The
Reading papers informs us that a fellow lost
his leather purse, containing a small amount of
money in notes, in the following singular manner.
He was loading wood on his wagon, when he ob
served a rabbit in the pile, which he caught. Re
moving a few moie sticks, another made its ap
pearance; and in order to secure it, he tied the
hind legs of the captured one with the strings of
his purse, and in fancied security, laid down the
rabbit, when it started off at a fleet gallop with
purse and money. The countryman pursued it for
upwards of six miles, when getting exhausted and
out of breath, he gave up. the chase. This is a
pretty tough story ; but as it occurred in " Old
Berks," where such things are more likely to hap
pen than in any other place, it is no doubt true to
the letter,
I
Oppressive Taxation. We learn by theWis-. J
consm papers, that tne taxes oi matiatesare sp.;
heavy, that many ol.thc collectors nav,e given up
their, commissions .rather than incur the odium or.

Land Titles in deserct. A correspondent of the
Ohio Statesman says that the land system at Salt'
Lake city is based upon the Free Soil System.
The land is not allowed to be sold. Every man
can have as much as ho can occupy by paying for
the survey and recording. The record constitutes
his title of occupancy, and that is all the title he
has. This and his improvements he can sell
nothing more.
A New Pedestrian Feat. At Savannah, on
the Oth'inst., Messrs. Jackso.n and Max field pro
ceeded to accomplish a singular pedestrian feat.
One hundred potatoes were placed in two parallel
rows each potato one yard from the other, and
each line extending one hundred yards, so that the
distance to be traversed, in order to place each
one separately in the basket at the starting point,
was nearly six miles. The work was done by
Jackson in thirty-six minutes, or two and a-half
minutes less than the time stipulated. His com
petitor gave over immediately after the expiration
of the thirty-six minutes, leaving two potatoes not
raised.
Gold and Silver Good in this World and cur
rent in the Next The N- Y. Spirit of the Times
gives sorno reminiscences of a Tennessee miser,
named Tyson, who loaned money at enormous dis
counts, and would handle nothing but specie, hold
ing a bank note, in perfect abomination. The
closing scene in the old fellow's career is thus re
corded in the columns of the veritable " Spirit."
Old Tyson lay upon his death bed, and he knew
it, so he called all his children around him and spoke
to. them as follows:
James, I give you the farm on Beaverdam.
John, I give you the place next to Robinson's. Ma
ry, you may have all the bed clothing, and the
papers you will find in this pocket book ; and so
he went on disposing, saying not one word about
his money. His children looked at each other
and then at him, and as he was waning fast, John
ventured to remind him of his cash on hand.
" My money oh, yes," exclaims the dying mi
ser, mv money whv mv cm dren. 1 have left

and there is Iiulo prospect of their fallinff

Lift? Pills and Phflcnix Bitters.
These Medicines have now been he fore the
public for a period of FIFTEEN TEARS, and
'during that time have maintained a high charac
ter in almost every part of the globe for their ex
traordinary and immediate power of restoring per
fect health to persons suffering under nearly every
kind of diseaseio which the human frame istliablc
IN MANY THOUSANDS
of certificated instances, they have even rescued
sufferers from the very verge of an untimely
grave, after all the deceptive nostrums of the day '
had utterly failed ; and to many thousands they
have permanently secured that uniform" enjoyi""
ment of health, without which life itself is. but
a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has their
efficacy invariably and infallibly proved, that it
has appeared scarcely less than miraculous to
those who were acquainted with the beautifully
philosophical principles upon which they are com
pounded, and upon which they consequently act.
It was to their manifest and sensible action in
purifying the springs and channels of life, and en
duing them with renewed tone and vigor, that
theywere indebted for their name.
Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries which
boast or vegetable ingredients, the UEE MEDI
CINES nrc purely and solely vegetable; and '
contain neither Mercury, nor Antimony, nor
ArEenic, "or any other mineral, in any form
whatever. They are entirely composed of ex
tracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues
of which, though long known to several Indian
tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmaceu
tical chemists, are altogether unknown to. the--ignorant
pretenders to medical science ; and were
never before administered in so happily efficacious
a combination.
The first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the stomach and bowels the various impuri
ties and crudities constantly settling round them ;
and to remove the hardened fujcea which collect
in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habitual" ;
Cosliveness, with all its train of evils, or sudden
Diarrhrca with its imminent dangers. This fact -is
well-known to all regular anatomists who ex
amine the human bowels after death ; and hence
the prejudice of these well-informed men against
the quack medicines of the age. The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDI
CINES 's to cleanse the kidneys and the blad
der ; and, by this means, the liver and lungs,
the healthful action of which entirely depends
upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The
blood, which takes its red color from the agency
of the liver and lungs, before it passes into the
heart, being thus purified by them, and nourished
by food coming from a clean stomach, courses
freely through the veins, renews every part of
the system, and triumphantly mounts the ban-;
ner of health in the blooming cheek. ;
The following are among the distressing va- . .
riety of human diseases in which the VEGE
TABLE LIFE MEDICINES are well known
to be infallible.
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomachs, and creating a flow ol
pure healthy bile, instead of the stale ami acrid ,
kind ; Flatulency, Loss OF ArrETrre, Heart-J
burn, Headache, Restlessness, Ill-Temper;
Anxiety, Languor, and Melancholy, which
are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will
vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure,
Costiyeness, by cleansing the whole length
of the intestines with a solvent process, and ;
without violence ; all violent purges leave the
bowels costive within two days.
Diarrhcea and Cholera,' by removing the
sharp acrid liuids by which these complaints are
occasioned, and by promoting the Iubricative.se.;
oration of the mucous membrane.
Fevers of a kinds, by re storing the blood to a
regular circulation, through the process of perspi
ration in such cases, and the thorough solution of
all intestinal obstruction in others.
The Life Medicines have been known to
cure Rheumatism permanently-ill three weeks,
and Gout half that time, by removing local
inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of
the joints.
Dropsies of all kinds, by freeing and strength
ening the kidneys and bladder z. they operate most
delightfully on these important organs, and henqe '4
have ever been found a certain remedy for tKe
worst cases of Gravel.
Also "Worms, by dislodging from the turnings'
of the bowels the slimy matter to which, these
creatures adhere.
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the
air-vessels of the lungs from the mucous which t
even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not'
removed, becomes hardened, and produces these .
dreadful diseases.

Common Colds a"d Influenza will always be
cured by one dose, or by two even in the worst
cases.
PILES. As a remedy for this most distressing . ..
and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES deserve a distinct and emphatic
recommendation. It is well-known to hundreds
in tills city, that the former proprietor of these
valuable Medicines was himself afllicted with this
compaint for upwards of thirty-fivb years; and
