Six locoloco members of the last Elouse voted deliberately against applying the "individual liability"- principle to certain Batiks, and . . some eight or ten voted for the new JudiCial districts,-iand these men -are now nothing less in Jesse's pure,eyes than "unprincipled democrats, who ark, truly men of principle in proportion to the price offered for their treason." Thus Jesse denounces them with out stint. But since that .party has been so badly whipped both in National and State Elections, and are no longer held together by "the cohesive power of public plunder," they show strong symptoms of falling to pieces like an old tub. Jesse's lead is not followed by some of the more independent spirits. The york r ilecdfoco papers justify and defend the votes - el their members against "individual liability"— the Berke county, locoloco papers defend the new judi cial districts as absblutely necessary—and Mr. Best, a locoloco member of the Semite, who is also editor of lire "Danville Intelli .gencer" .turns up his nose at the denunc.a tinns of Jesse and Forney in this wise : ' MI F ~iY±-_< [, ~ i"; v''; o 1 "The Pennsylvanian, and a lew other Dem - - ocratic papers In this State, not yet satisfied with their success in br . ealcing -- doWn Tthe democratic party by their' arbitrary, dictato rial and insolent deportmerit towards mem bers of the party, whom' Jesse bids them to balk at, to gratify - his personal spleen, are still at their destructive work with as much zeal 'as ever. Do they expect to restore the democratic party to power by turning more out?" The Danville man it will be seen thinks this`"reading out" is a very dangerous busi ness, as the party jnst now has no surplus material on hand ! It may also be noted in this connexion that a new locoloco paper ha bean started in Pittsburg, or the purpose of denouncing and checkingthe destructive ten dencies of its party. So that between "pro• scription" and domestic dis,s.ensions our opponents are in a very uncomfoitablm stew. Gen. Jackson's Plan. The locos have' made as much clamor over the removal of 't poor Drum" as they could possibly have made it all the P. M's of Pennsylvania had been cur off at one broad sweep of the knife. Whereupon it is charitably suggested that they be all decapt tated.,in a isile,iristead of being taken off , " few and far between" as heretofore.' The Washington correspondent of - die D'arly News tells the following story of Col. Benton an en. ac " We recollect of a good story that was told of Col. Benton when he was called upon by the first cabinet .under Gen. Jackson for advice upon the subject of removals. The Colonel said that down in his country the custom used to be when people butchered their pigs, to kill but one at a time. It was found film while one was losing its "vital spark," the rest squealed tertibly—worse in tact than the victim. Hence they adopted an excellent plan, which was still in vogue With them, of sticking all the pigs at once— thus saving a very great annoyance. The application of the story it .seOrns had a tre. mendous effect upon Geu. Jackson—and his cabinet; for immediately the dead (official) bodies of \Vhig office holders were piled across each other like the slain of the French army at the. celebrated charge at Eylan, when Murat, with the !lower of Napoleon's troops moved down upon the enemy's coy alry, beating evety thing before it into one wid gtave. As Headley says of Murat we may say of Jackson at that eventful period— "Ho raged like. an unloosed lion amid the foe, scattering death and dealt uction where ever he left the marks of his loot steps." Locofoco Practices Sale Of Offices.—The N. Y. Courier says, the recent dAcrivery of a large defalcation in the office of Marshal, has led to - other dis coveries equally astounding. It now appears from an affidavit of Mr. Moore, made in the Court of Chancery, that immediately upon the receipt of his appointment, he disposed his office for the sum of $16,000 and .5475 1 per month! Mr. Moore, in justification of himself for this Most unjUstifiable proceeding alleges that the practice is common and that his two predecessors in like manner sold their offices to the same person—the Deputy Marshal ! This will doubtless lead to further inves• tigations into th/ manner in which offices have been •disAsed of Unite!. the VAN Bu !MN; TYLER and POLE dynaittiei. ^• THE STATE TAEASURY.-WO understand that Gideon J.

He forthwith addres sed a letter to the Secretary_ of War in_whigh he-set forth the novel and extravagant claim, that he is entitled to his office for life I He say :L :)]. claim, legally, to hold a We-es t: ' my appointment, it being, a perma nent one, or for so long as the office exists --removal only for good- cauSe." And he even goes so fat in his pretensions, as to in •sist, that "if there should be no material to employ him upon then he could not, right fully, be removed." On receipt of this let ter, the Secretary of War replied in the fol lowing laconic note. ~R eplying to your' letter of this date, have to ktate, that your services as a cle . k are no longer required in this Department. Your obedient servant, . • . G. W. CRAWFORD, Sec'y 01 War. This lile•oflice doctrine isllie-very essence ot ancient Federalism, and this impudent case ot Peebles' is an apt illustration of how little democracy there really is in-the pretended "democratic" party. THE CHOLERA. We learn by telegraph, that ~there were 190 deaths at St. Louis during the week ending on the Ist of May, 96 of which were horn cholera. The cholera appears to be on the increase, although the weather has ben cold. A Bostonian writes,,,as follows; under date of the 14th ult. of the cholera at Brazos: The cholera comatenced its ravages on the 28th of February; and continued for thir ty-five days. , During this time no less than 60 or 70 fell itm victims. Our population does not exceed 25 souls, so that we lost one in every four. Just imagine the cholera in yinn city sweeping away in five weeks one fourth of its population, which would be about 30,000, or one thousand per day, and you have an idea of the number of deaths. MURDER AT BALTJAIORE:—An individual named George W. Campbell, was shot on Wednesday morning last, in Baltimore, by John Price, known in the city, aslCity John.' The parties had been, up to Wednesday, on friendly terms, They had been at the May Ball,'et Washingtonliall early in the Morning, where a slight difficulty occurred. Upon meeting, a few hcurs afterwards, at Petherbridge's Hotel, in High street, Price attempted to provoke Campbell to a quaiel, but failing in this, he deliberately dreW a revolver and shot the latter through the Olt breast, causing his death to about ,half an hour. Price was subsequently arrested and committed to prison to answer the charge of murder. They were both gamblers. .

Allaye-am FRANKLIN GARDNER. Notice to TAlg - ravers._ N E tlig - provisions-Of--the-Aet-or 4844, _ Ili any county paying into the State Treasury the Slate Tax levied on such county, prior. to the 17th of July in - any year, is omitled:4o an Ithareillellt of 6 pen cent.-on the amount au paid. . The undersigned, Commissioner 4 of berland county, in view , of the above provisions consider it equitable and proper that those who by the prompt payment of their taxes prior to the above date, enable the Treasurer to pay over.the State- 'l'ax, so as to receive the afore said abatement of 5 per cent., the benefit of which hos hitherto been enjoyed by the citizens of the county generally, ,should be allowed 'a' deduction of that atnount by the collector—have authorized the different Collectors to make said abatement from the State tax, in all cases where the State and County las is paid to the Collector before the 17th day of July, 1849, when said abatement shall amount to one cent or more,. no fractions of a cent to be credited. Since the Act of '44, the Commissioners have paid the State tax of this county,, annually to the Stott Treasurer, within the time prescribed b y the act, and the county hos received the benfiet , of an anatemerc of five per cent. thereop, but but to meet said payment they havetaiund it necessary heretofore to appropriate a part 'of the county funds to meet the deficiency occasioned by delinquents, until the balance of the State Tax was pollected. It therefore becomes ne. cessary to require the payment of both Sidle and county tax to civil le the payer to the afore solo abatement, upottlie aforesaid State Tax. The undersigned therefore confidently antici pate that the above , arrangement, and the further inducement of enabling. Cumberland cout.ty to maintain the—ehoraeter- 2 for-prompt nese—and-ft delity which she has occulted in the discharge of her obligations to the Commonwealth, will induce every citizen to discharge their State and County Tax prior to the 17th day of July. • DANIEL COBLE, JOHN' , MELL, JAMES , KELSO, County.
