declare their, .dey.otion to. the Union.,. John Ser

Chairmain, and George M. Dallas, Josiah Randall,

" We learn from' the North American, that the
se'rilfmenls uttered hy the speakers generally met
with a .'cordial' and hearty response, and 'that the
entire proceedings manifested (what has never
been doubted) " thai the people of Philadelphia
afej'as they always have been, true to the Union,

Larsre Turnip.
Daniel Roberson, of Solebury township, Bucks
- .4 , i
county, presented the. editor of the Bucks County
Intelligencer, with a Turnip that measures 35
inchesjin. circumference, and weighs 8 1-4 pounds.
tt?We invite attention. to the subjoined article,
which we copy from a late number of the "Daily
jYeibs;" and most heartily do we endorse its recom
mendations. It is'a flattering, but well deserved
compliment to a highly esteemed and 'distinguished
citizen of Easton.
The IVexl United States Senator.
. Thus far no one has yet been named as aauit-
ft ' -
able person for the support of the Whig members
of the Legislature. As they are in almost hope-?
lessmmorhy on joint ballot, it matters, perhaps,
very little, whom they may select,as, their candi
date; tillthere is a fitness.jn allr things,; and it
seems but-proper that some one, whose highqual"
ideations and manifold services in the Whig par
ty would render his nomination agreeable to the
Whigs', should be selected as the Whig candidate.
Possessing these qualities to commend him to
their support, and enjoying a position and person
abpopularity Which might render him acceptable
to a portion of our opponents, who can foretell that
thVWhigs might not, perhaps, succeed in electing
him, hopeless as their prospects now seem to be.
That there is such a Whig possessing all the ele
ments of .success that any Whig, could possess,
among the,ir own number, we think all will admit
when they hear his name mentioned. We refer to
the Hon. Alexander E. . Brown, member electrom
Northampton county, wiio is not only an accom
plished, scholar and one of the most eloquent and
popular orators In the State, but, who, while he
hasirendered as .much service to the-Whig party.
asany other man of his age in the State, enjoys
ar the ame time, in an eminent degree, the cor
ridence a'rid esteem of our political opponehtsJ--TwicjehlaVhe
now ' gallantly and gloriously tri-unpfiedrer-an
opposition majority of 1,000 in
olvd' Northampton. At the last election he triumph
ed by a majority of nearly six hundred voles.
But few men enjoy a personal popularity which
would twfce in succession over-ride an opposition
majority like ihat in Northampton no , one could
enjoy it who was. not eminently-deserving of at.5
In view of these things, we submit to our Whig
friends whether -the suggestion thus thrown out is
not entitled to their favorable consideration.'
This Democratic State Committee, at a rneet
ingheld: in 'Philadelphia on the '20th inst. resolved
that, the convention for nominating a Democratic
candidate, for governor and canal commissioner,
beheld -at Reading, Berks county, on the first
Wednesday, in. June, 1851, and that the convention,
be heldat Harrisburg on the second Wednesday
in, June, ,1851, at 10 A..Mt, for the purpose of nom
inating (democratic condidates for judges of the
Supreme Court -of Pennsylvania ; the said con
vention4 to be composed of the same number of
delegates as -are to compose the State convention
to nominate -a. democratic candidate for governor,
andHp be'apportioned in the same manner.
Death of Hon. G. D. Wjlli.. We regret to
learn that the Hon. Garrett. D- Wall, late U. S.,
Senator from N. J., died on Friday night, the 22d

We learn 4om the;Tribune, that Colonel I
R. M. Johson died at Frankfort Kv. ta 9 o'clock!
(on Tuesday" morning 19th inst., haring; for some
time ueen aeprivea oi ms reason, xie ui
abouUlhe year 1780 and was consequently some
70 years old: In"l806 he was chosen a member
of the House of Representatives from Kentucky,
which post he held for twelve consecutive years.
In 1813 he was authorised toTaise-a volunteer reg
iment of cavalry of 1000 men, to fight ihe: British
and Indians on the North West. In the campaign
which followed he served gallantly, under Gen.,
Harrison as Col. of that regiment. At the battle
of the Thames he distinguished himself "by break
ing the line of the British infantry Gen. Proctor
having stupidily formed.it with considerable gaps
between the different divisions. The. fame of kil
ling Tecumseh in this battle has also been attrib
uted to Col. J. but the glory of the act has other
claimants and it is not quite certain who took the
life of that savage.
In 1819 he was transferred from the House of
Representatives to the Senate to serve but an un
expired term. When that expired he was re-chosen,
and thus remained in the Senate tjll 1820.. Then
another re-election being impossible, he went back
into the; House where he remained till 1837, when
he became Vice-President under the Van Buren
dj.na.sty. From 1837 to 1841 he presided over the
Senate. Since then he has not held any office,,
though his ambition has desired that goal which
all ourgreat men regard with such surprising u
nanimity, Presidency.
;Cpl. Johnson was a. vvftak, man, with inordinate
vanity, but brave and naturally generous.
His long career in political life has- no other
fact so remarkable as his rise to the Vice-Presidency.
Peace to" his remains.
Foreign News. .
By . the arrival of the Steamer Niagara ;at New
York on the 22nd inst. w.e have news from Eng
land to the. 9th. The most important item is the
universal excitement throughout England, occa
sioned by "what is called 'the late Papal Bull ap
pointing a Roman Catholic hierarchy in England.'
All the Newspapers are discussing it ; and meet
ings of the clergy and laity are being held through
out the kingdom. Lord John Russel has address
ed a letter to the Bishop of Durham, in which he .
denounces, 'the late aggression, of the Pope, upon
our Protestanism,' as insolent and insidious,' 4 a
pretension to supremacy over the realm of Eng
land' inconsistent with the Queen's supremacy,
with the rights of our bishops and clergyj and with
the spiritual independence of the nation.' He be-?
lieves, however, that there is more danger from
the tendency of what are called the Puseyites in
the English church, towards popish doctrines,
than there is from any power or influence to be
exercised directly by the Pope himself. '
In Switzerland, the same excitement exists from
a similar cause ; and it is said the movement of
the Pope is extended to allEuropean countries of
a. mixed Catholic and, Protestant population.
In; Ireland, the cultivation of flax is, absorbing
public attention.
The Grain and Cotton markets in England were
dull with a slight decline in prices.'
From California. :
The 5teamerJreocent City arrived at New York
on Thursday, from Chagres, with California news
to the 16th ult. She brings 1,600,000 of gold.
The news of the admission of California was re
ceived' with universal satisfaction. People were
leaving San Francisco for the eastern States fas
ter than they were arriving more persons going
out of the State than into it.. The illusion is be
ing rapidly dispelled, and the accounts from the
mines are less and less favorble. The overland
emigrants on their way were suffering almost be
yond description. Twenty thousand were estima
ted to be beyond the Desert, entirely destitute of
provisions. Private benevolence being insuffi-'
cient for their relief, a requisition upon the gov
ernment for $100,000 was talked of, to aid them.
Flour at San Francisco had advanced several dol
lars per barrel, other provisions maintaining good
prices. Building materials were so low as to hard
ly pay freight.
Counterfeiters. A gang of male and female
counterfeiters have been engaged for a week or
more past, in circulating bad money in our bor
ough. Warrants were issued by N. M. Wilson,
Esq., and several arrests have been made. Geo.
Decoursey was arrested on Saturday last, but
broke out of the lock-up and made his escape on
Sunday morning. His wife was also arrested, and
is now here under bail awaiting trial. Daniel
Rose and wife were both arrested. She is also
under bail. He had endeavored to make his es
capej but was overtaken at Ashland on Thursday
night, and brought back for trial before Esquiie
Wilson yesterday morning. John Sterling was
arrested n Tuesday, and held to bail. He has
since escaped. Other accomplices are suspected,
and more arrests will no doubt be made. The

Yesterday morning a suspicious looking
package was received at the post office in this,
city, post marked "St Louis, 20c, paid, Charles
Baker, care of M. Wickersham." This Baker
to whom1 the package was addressed, was ar
rested some month or two since near Virderi's
on the mail route between this place and St.'
Louis, after being detected in the act of taking
one ofthe mail. bags, and giving his captor's a
race of about a mile. He was brought to this ci
ty, examined and commited to jail. A few days
after this some discoveries were made in the
trunk, in possession of a woman passing for J3a
ker's wife, in St. Louis, which implicated him as
having been extensively engaged in mail dep
redations. During Bakers confinement sever
al demonstrations have been made at night
about the jail, as supposed to effect his release;
and on one or two occasions by his own cun
ning and adroitness ho came very near ma
king his escape. The jailor has therefore,
put him in irons, and secured him to the
floor. The package alluded to was found
to contain three pamphlets, and lettered with
gold. " All for love." Our post master and
Mr. Wickersham concluded that these pam
phlets, one of which was the trial of professor
Webster, were not neatly bound ibr nothing.
Accordingly the book was taken to a bookbin
der, was carefully examined, and pronounced
that nothing was concealed about it. This did
not satisfy Mr. Wickersham. He thought from
the thicknes ofthe covers, and other circum
stances, that the book contained something
which was to assist Baker in making his es
cape. After reaching home he commenced
cutting up the cover on one side of the book,
and while performing a similar operation upon
another one, 11 Io and behold 1" two small saws
about eight inches in length such as machin
ists use in sawing iron were brought to view !
Thus had been foiled another deep laid scheme
for Bakers escape, who is believed to be alt
the head of a large gang of villains scattered all
through the west. None but a workman could
have concealed these, saws in the. cover of a
bppk -none bu a sagacious rogue could have
suggested the plan, and none but a vigilant
jailor, could hate detected it. Illinois Daily

Machinery for Washing Dishes. The Scien

Ogden N, Y., has invented a machine for wash
ing dishes, " so as to save the women folks a deal
of trouble." The dishes are, placed in a rack
and set upright, when it is carried to a vessel con
taining water and a little soap, and by turning, a
crank, the dishes on rack are whirled in great
style to remove the dirt. The unclean water is
then drawn off and replaced by clean boiling wa
ter, and the crank again turned a few seconds.
The dishes are then clean, and can remain in the
rack, which obviates the repeated handling of dish
