A' writ has been issued by the Governor to the Sheriffs of the several counties composing the E leventh Congressional district, directing an elec tion to be held in the district on the 31st of De cember, Inst , for the election of a member of Con gress, to supply the vacancy occasioned by the death of Hon. Chester Butler. The counties com posing the district are Luzerne, Wyoming, Col umbia and Montour. Christina and New Year Presents. The time has arrired when every body looks for a Holiday present to renew old acquaintances and to strengthen new ones. Our neighbor J. H. Melick, has just returned from New York with a splendid assortment of Fancy Goods suitable for the Holidays. You who have wives, children, cousins or sweet-hearts to make presents to, just step into his stoie and you will be astonished to see the splendid assortment. Dont all go at once. The total number of emigrants arrived at New York for the mouth of November, was 20,237, of which 1 1,272 were from Ireland. In October the arrivals were 25,374, showing a decrease of 5,047. AVe learn from the Boston Atlas that, a night or two ago, Mr. Paine gave an exhibition of his wa ter gas-light, at Worcester, previous to sendfng an agent to Loudon, to introduce the gas at the exhi bition of the World's Fair. The party present pronounce the exhibition as astonishing, without humbug, and are satisfied "thai the child is there.'11 Dunbar the young man, who brutally murdered two little boys near Albany, a few weeks ago, that they might not fall heirs to his step-father's property, is to be hung on the 31st of January next. Sixty Days without Food. Abram Van Au ken, who died in Mount Morris, on the 1st inst., ae3 GO, of paralysis, with which he was seized in February last, had subsisted for 60 days immedi ately next preceding his death entirely without food. Nothing passed his lips but pure water. So says the Livingston Union. Collector Lewis. A enmmitto of Philadel phianB formally waited on President Fillmore at Washington, on Wednesday last and presented 6ome grave charges against Messrs. Lewis, Sur veyor Noiris, and Weightmaster Reed, and re- qnesieu uieir removal irom omce. ii is saia the disclosures recently made by Francis E. Bra dy Esq , m relation to the first named gentleman, are making considerable stir at Washington. An investigation has been ordered. ICPli is certainly a remarkable fact, which we find stated in the Illinois Stale Register, that the Hon. Wm H. Bissell, now representing the first Congressional district of Illinois, being a candi date in the same district at the election lately held for Representative to the next Congress, was e lected without opposition, -receiving every vole, to the number of twelve thousand nine hundred and forty nine ! California Gold. The amount of California gold received at the Philadelphia Mint has aver aged for the last eleven months two and a half mil lions .of dollars per month, as will be seen by the following statement from the Treasurer : Gold dust deposited in November, $4,400,000 Coinage during the same period, 4,104,000 Aggregate receipts of California gold dust from January 1st to November 30, inclusive 27,350,000 From other sources. 1,200,000 From the Great Salt Lake. . The Frontier Guardian (Mormon journal) of the 13th ult. has a few additional items of intelligence from the Mormons at the Salt Lake. The crops were very fine, the wheat yielding forty bushels per acre; oats, barley and vegetables succeeding well, but too short a season for corn. Wheat was worth $4 per bushel, oats $2, board S3 50 per week, common day labor Si 50 and board, me chanical labor from $3 to $5 per day and board. Provisions bore a fair price; flour $10 per cwt.; beef, as good as ever ate, 12 cents per lb.; pota toes $1 perbushel, and other vegetables in pro portion. -Groceries were paying a fine freight; coffee 50 cents per lb.; sugar 40 cents; rice 35 cts.; tea $4.- All the merchants were doing well. 'Stock was exorbitantly high. Mules from $125 to $200. Californians swept the Valley. Paid at Fdrf Bridger $110 for mules and $100 for Ameri can horses. The population of the Valley is from 23,000' to 25,000. We learn that at the late session of the Luzerne countfipourt, it was insisted upon that the Grand Jury should make some sort of a presentment in relation to the "Small Bill Law;" whereupon the Jury repotted that, in their opinion, the Law is a dead letter, and thai the judges, jurors,. witnesses, lawyers, and parties, as well as the whole com munity, were in the constant practice of violating its provision's. We have not learned whether up on .that presentment any of the criminals were brought to justice; but we presume not, as it would have been utterly impossible to obtain a fair trial; the "peace and dignity of the Com monwealth" being rather slirolf represented. But,iseriously, what a commentary -upon Locofo co legislation as this .same "Small Note Law." Wyoming Whig. H LtPThe Legislature of Virginia has re-elected the 'Hon.,J.ames M, Mason, to the Senate of the United Stales, for six years from the 4th of March next. The vote was 1 12 to 42. Mr. M. is the au-. thor of the Fugitive Slav.e Law; and an orthodox discjple of;the Calhoun. school of politicians. Thirty-First Congress. SECOND SESSION. v The Presidents' Message was sent, in ton the first;day of the session, and everybody .looked for i Congress to go to work in earnest; but the week was wiled away and nothing done. Rev. Mr. Gurley (Presbyterian) was elected Chaplain of the House, and Rev. C. M.. Butler (Episcopalian) Chaplian of the Senate. The death of the Hon. Chester Butler, of Penn sylvania, was announced, and the customary pro ceedings had. Mr. Benton introduced a bill for a railroad from. Missouri to San Fraucisco. - . . , " On Thursday both houses adjourned over to Monday the Senate having referred the Presi dent's Masage to appropriate committees. Monday, Dec. 9. -In the Senate, petitions and memorials were presented and referred, bills in troduced, &c In the House, the reference of the Presidents' Message to committees was in order. Mr. Gid dings made a violent speech against that portion of it relating to the Fugitive Slave Law. Mr. Brown, of Indiana, was opposed to the discussion of the question at this time. The House'then a greed to limit the speeches to one minute, and the reference of the message to committees was soon accomplished. Mr. Schenck made an ineffectual effort to sub mit a resolution for the fitting out of the U., S., ship Pennsylvania, to convey articles to the Lon don World's Fair. Dec. 10. In the Senate, little of interest was done bills and resolutions introduced, and pri vate bills passed. In the House, the. credentials of Wm. Messe vey, Delegate from New Mexico, were presented and referred to the Committee on Territories. A number of bills and resolutions were intro duced, among them one by Mr. Hampton, of Penn'a. granting a portion of the public lands in Pennsylvania to aid in the construction of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad. Referred to the Com mittee on Public Lands. Dec. 11. In the Senate, Mr. Hale presented a petition of citizens of New Hampshire, praying for a revision of the military laws based upon ths case of soldiers lately tried and sentenced to a se vere and barbarous punishment in that State. It was referred to the Committee on Military Affairs. The death of Amos E. Wood, M. C. from Ohio, was announced in both houses, and they then ad journed. Dec. 12. In the Senate, nothing of importance was done, and they adjourned over to Monday. In the House, nothing of interest was done. Dec. 13. In the House, private bills took up the chief part of the lime, and they adjourned over to Monday. The St. Louis papers contain full particulars of the recent tornado on the Mississippi river, by which the beautiful village of Cape Giradeau, in Missouri, was almost entirely destroyed. The convent, Catholic church, and other build-, ings, in the immediate vicinity, are heaps of ru ins. The St. Vincent College is also prostrated, and the Methodist church, and all the other houses be tween that and the bridge, are injured. The professors and students were at the college at the lime of the awful visitation, and many of them were severely injured. One has since died. Upward of one-half of the residents of the place were left without a roof to protect them from the weather. It is said that for a distance of fifteen miles back, and round Cape Giradeau, everything bears the aspect of utter destruction. The accounts do not give the number of injured and killed. Prompt measures have been taken at St. Louis for the purpose of extending aid to the distressed and suffering families who have been rendered houseless by this awful calamity. No Liaiwr sHiinir in Vermont. The sa intoxicating liquors is prohibited absolutely, by ahct of the Vermont Legislature, except for.i medical, chemical and mechanical purposes'. 1 The Selectmen of the several towna are the licen sing board for their respective U'owns, and lhey may license not more than two persons in each. - i . . . ... ... . ------ ."-. m le of V The Easion Whig comes to us enlarged and in an entire.new- dress -The Whig" is conducted with ability and is an excellent paper. Of the 97 paper mills in the State of. Massa chusetts 32 are in Berkshire Co., anil of these 32, nineteen are in the town of Lee. A French lady came into a large fortune, and immediately. she fell into, a profound jmelanchply ; she expected to be robbed every moment, and at length locked her doors and received food through a small window. She soon had fear of poison, dismissed the cook and starved to death. The-Johnstown Wreath goes for Scott fqrPres ident. and William F. Johnston for Vice Presi dent, Johnston makes so good a Governor that the people of the State will hardly agree to spare him from that post for a while yet ; but a better man or Vice President would be hard, to find. A great Hen Convention or fair, has been hold ing in Boston. At the closing sale of fowls on Friday, one Cochin China cock brought $30. There were pure and beautiful Cochin Chinas, Java and other fowls. -Libel. We understand that at the sitting of the Court of Quarter Sessions, of Bucks county, last week, F. P. Sellers, Editor and Publisher of the Olive Branch, was convicted of libel, and sentenced to pay a fine of fifty dollars and costs of prosecution. The libel was founded upon some strictures made upon the Temperance principles of an individual in Newtown, in that county. The large Wilkesbarre rolling mill was sold re cently by the Sheriff for $9,000. The, white population of Dallas county, Ala., is 7941 ; slave population 20,955. A New ail it Singular Clock. We have seen and examined a very singular piece of Mechanism in the form of a clock, or time piece, invented and manufactured by Dr. W. H. Stenton, practical dentist. It will keep the time of day, day of the week, day of the month, and also the name of the month, iiut the: most peculiar feature is, it keeps the odd days of the month, and also leap year, and the odd minutes of every moon, so that it never requires any setting. This, we believe, has never been done with any other time piece made in this country. The strik ing properties are no less remarkable. On either side of the temple is a door, and at the hour for striking, the figure of a Knight fully equipped in his panoply, walks out of one door, which immediately closes again, on a semi-circular area, and when in front of the temple, lifts his hands and strickes very distinctly the hour of the day; he then resumes his circuit, and when he ap proaches the other door it opens for his ingress and then closes as soon as he gets into the inner court. There are several other unique matters connected with his ingenious piece of mechanism which we cannot now notice. Dr Stenton never turned a piece of brass or steel until his attempt at this work. He planned and worked out its intricate combinations without assistance, and has made the whole of the struc ture with his own hands mostly at night during the last year. Balimore Patriot. Henry Clay Nominated Once More. Mr. Foote, in his speech made at the City Hall, New York, on Mondry, stated that Gen. Cass had become a partizan of his old opponent, Mr. Clay. His words, as we find them reported in the Trib une, were these : " Gen. Foote complimented the 'Union Trinity,' Clay, Cass and Webster, for their services on the Committee of Thirteen. When it was told to Gen. Cass that the prospects of the committee would finally lead to the election of Henry Clay to the Presidency, Gen. Cass, with great good feeling, was perfectly enraptured, expressing his perfect willingness to support such a nomination for the success of the ' Union' party. The narrative of Gen. Foote was listened to throughout with the utmost attention, and he was frequently applauded." The Bounty Isanti aw. We learn from the Pension Office thai,- in' answer to various inquiries relative to the Boun ty Land Act of September 28, 1350, decisions hae been made as follows : 1. That where the service has been ren dered by a substitute-, he is the person entitled to the. benefit, and not his. employer. 2. That the widow of a soldier who has rendered the service required by the law is entitled to boun ty land, provided she waa a widow at the pas sage of the law, although she may have been married several times; or although her marrige to the officer or soldier may have taken place after he left the service ; but if not a widow when the law passed, the benefit of the act in ures to the minor children of the deceased sol dier. 3. That no person who has received or is entitled to bounty land under a prior law is entitled to the benefit of the act of the 28th of September, 1S50. 4. That no soldier is enti tled to more than one warrant under this act, although be may have served several terms ; but, where a soldier has served several terms, he will receive a warrant for the greatest quan tity of land to which the several terms consoli dated will entitle him. 5. In all cases where any portion of the marine corps in the several wars referred to in the act of the 28th of Sep tember, 1850, were embodied with the army in the field, and performed service as a portion of the line of the army, the marines who so served, if they served the time required by law, and were honorably discharged, are entitled to land. No seaman, nor any other person be longing to the navy proper, is entitled to land. And no teamster or artificer is entitled to land. Persons who were eneased in the removal of rc m the Cherokees from Georgia in 1836, or in re moving Indians at any time are not entitled to land. How much Pork will a Bushel of corn make? By some experiments tried, it is believed that a bushel of corn, fed to a thrifty hog will make 12lbs. of pork. fco that corn at 24 cts. is equal to pork at 2 cs., and corn at 75 cts a bushel is equal to pork at 6 cts. a pound. The manure will more than pay for the labor of feeding and killing the hogs. Hoaxed. It turns out that Amin Bey, whom our great men at Washington have been feast ing, toasting and making appropriations to, out of the National Treasury, as a Minister from Turkey, is nothing more than some inferior officer in the Turkish naval service whom the Sultan has sent to this country to learn some thing of our naval affairs.

The Charleston Mercury records an extraordi nary shooting match, which took place at Mount Pleasant, South Carlina. A Mr. ICing backed himself to break 95 wine bottles (viz. the hard Sherry or Madeira bottle) out of 100 thrown up, and to be fairly broken in the air. Considerable speculation took place, and many heavy bets were pending on the affair ; the odds were againts his doing it, and 50 to 10 against this hitting all, and 75 to 10 against breaking 98, which was taken by himself. After smashing one as a trial, the match commenced ; the first 5 double shots were loaded and fired by Mr- King in ten minutes, and ten bot tles smashed into hundred pieces. He broke all up to the 60th, which was hit, but not broken. Mr. King loaded himself, washed out his gun three times, and hit, including the by-shot, 101 bottles, broke 100 in 101 shots. Tjine 2 hours and 8 minutes. ICPThe Norfolk Herald says that a cow belong ing to Mr. J. P. Scott, in Norfolk, bore four calve3 at a birth, on Friday night, all perfect, but two of them died next day, and the other two the day af ter. The same cow at hef preceeding parturition had twin calves. Force op the wind. In a tornado out west, not far from the mammoth cave, a cow was blown in to the lop of a tree sixty feet high. Whether she was injured, or how she got down, the telegraph forgets to inform us.

The Daily Tribune is issued every morning except Sunday on a large sheet of fine white pa per, forming eight pages of six columns each, or about the size of two average Country Newspa pers. About six of these pages are new every morning ; the aggregate of Editorials, News and Miscellanies being greater than that of any other paper in America, and greater than any but ono or two in Europe, though its price is but half that of other first-class Dailies in this Country and less than one-fourth the cost of similar journals in Eng land. Two Evening Editions are issued to sup ply each subscriber with the latest news up to the hour when his coppy must be mailed. The Tribune is edited in chief by Horace Gree ley, who has special charge of all matters per taining to the Politics and Legislation of our own Country. Its Foreign (Old-World) department is in charge of Charles A. Dana, assisted by able correspondents in London, Paris, Constantinople, &c. &c. Its California intelligence and its City department are in charge of Bayard Taylor, as sisted by an efficient corps of Reporters. No ex pense is or will be spared to render its news from all quarters, by Telegraph, Expresses, Steamships and Mails, as early and reliable as that of any other paper. The Semi-Weekly Tribune contains nearly all the non-advertising matter of the Daily, except such as is of local interest, or has been superseded by fuller and more exact advices before the Semi Weekly is issued. It is of the same size with the Daily, and has few adevrtiscments. The Weekly Tribune is issued every Thursday morning, and contains most of the matter of the Daily with more summary accounts of such E veuts and Proceedings as cannot be published in full. We mean that no Weekly shall surpass this in giving a full graphic and faithful account of what the world is Doing, whereof it is Ihmking, vanciug on the coast from the Gulf of Mexico. We are only on the threshold of the r,eal sub stantial advantages which may be rendered by trie electro-telegraph. Poisoned by Eating a Worm Quick Death. A small boy was poisoned to death in iftunson, last week, by eating a part of a worm in an apple, dropped it, and complained it did not taste good. In a short time his mouth be gan lo swell, and in two hours he was dead. His parents picked up the apple, and upon ex amination, found in it a portion' of a worm known in common parlance, as the thousautl legged worm. We did not learn the name of the boy. Clarion (O.)
