Th - 4ro - iince of Loo Chow was taken by the rebels on the 14th bf January,.and the Lieut. Governor was killed in its defence. The Emperor has degraded the General who allowed it to be . taken, the Emperor acting upon the 'principle that the Man who allows himself to, be beaten by his enemies deserves to beAtioked out of drum by his friends. flThe coming Wheat crop appears, from the general accounts we have, to be in every flourishing condition.

In the Soutb, taking the whole range, the were never better.

KNOW NOTHING VICTORY Defeat of the Adrainiat ration I WA 8.111N0T0N.,....h1R0 6.—The election for Mayor of this oitY haft resulted as I predicted, in my despatch of this morning, in the success 'of Mr. Towers; the Whig onildidate. ' The of ficial returns have not yet been made public, but enough is known to make'it certain that Towers has received a majority in each of the seven wards, and the entire majority is from four to five hundred. The Board are also Whig. The election derived peculiar interest from the fact that the Administration has openly exercised its influence for Maury, the present incumbent, which it is reported, %vent ,so far as to threaten clerks with removal if they did not.vote_lor_Mauray, and_from_the threats_of prominent Administration 'Senators and mem bers of Congress, that the 'appropriations for the city would be denied if Mr:Maury was not elected. The. Catholic and Native Ameri can principle formed the basis of the contest. Much excitement was' manifested through out the tidy, but the voting possedefl quiet ly, and•nlthugh individual collisions have ta ken plade, no' serious disturbance occurred. The election of Mr. Towers is considered as a decided rebuke to the Administration and those members of Congress who have inter fered in it. A large and enthusiastic procession of the friends of Mr: Towers is now (14 o'clock;) passing through the eity,..with a band of mu sic, on their way to serenade the successful candidate.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 1864 FOR GOVERNOR, of Northumberlaud 'atm, 11161.811 M LAIST 'VETO Great prnioo leliestowed on Gov. , Bigler by 'hie o wri-, — perty preeeeslor hie last - !;i3 - ie . in re- :gard to the small note penalty. - The drown - ataneessays - thd — Wilitelliater - Vinage - Reiord, - - are ue follows. The law prohibiting, the cir aulation of,tareignemall.notea, imposes a pea thy of $5OO, for every note paid out by any corporation of thbi Btato;' Twd railroad corn panies,--the central and tbe,Oble bad prohibited as they . alleged, ,tho payment of all foreign'emaltneiee by their agents ; but nevertheless, the said agents had, for oonven• fence of thepaesengers, being in the habit of receiving and paying them, out. With a view to recover the penalty, some persons in Ohio,• armed a plan for. t passing over the road, re ceived these email dotes from the agents, and noting down the date, &o. They pursued this scheme for some time until they had accumu lated more than a hundred notes—for each-of which the Jaw imposed a penalty of $600,.0r siwy or eighty thousand dollars in all The same parties had pursued the same sys tem towards another Corporation in Pittsburg —obtained a large number of small notes— brought suit—and then offered to comPromiso for flay per cent. Tlie Court decided in that case, that' the .plaintiffs were conspirators against the law, and not its defenders. Ta king the sane tier, of the rail road sults, the tisintuie passed a bill, not for nbs'olving the companies, but declaring that if guilty, they should forfeit the sum of only $lOO, or $5OO each,,,,„. It was considered that the law would 'lle vindicated by thiv act, and a gang of meu who were morally base conspirators, defeated of their plunder. The hill was passed on grounds of public policy—the law never de signed to place it in the power of conspirators to indict a penalty of forty or fifty thousand dollars against s corporation—a sum that would ruin the Maier corporations of the State—make them bankrupt; nod thus rob their poor and honest creditons, Such a power was never intended by the law, as must be ad mitted by everyktere. The bill to compound the penalty has iceived the of tbeG6v ernor. If it is sound his own goinerous par dons aro wreak lie 'condemns hihmelf. How often has Governor Bigler interposed the par doning power— even in doubtful oases ? flow often in cases like those of the Pheenixville rioters,,and the Alberti Kidnapper S—hes he opened the prison doors, and let loose upon so ciety men branded with the mark of Cain ? The Democracy of Pennsylvania are read' to make this titrek - Mnithe Nebraska bill] th issue.beforArthe-pe,p'ple, if our opponents de sire it: We are ready to vindicate the prinoi• pies of the bill, and in doing so we will be but advocating a pdficy for which the Democ racy hate contended since the adoption of the Federal constitution. viz:—the right and ca pacity of the people to make their own laws and manage their ownlocal and domestic con cerns. Judge Pollook and his supporters de ny this principle—the Democracy affirm it.— This. then. is the question; before the people of Pennsylvania.-2- Volunteer.. . This is bold assertion, says the Daily News, but lacks the quality of truth to sustain it. It is false, utterly false, that. the Jeffer'sonion Pemocraoy contended - ever for the principles' of the Nebraska bill. Judge Pollock occupies the same ground en, this subject, which, was occupied by Jefferson,. Madison and Monroe. The Volunteer ktinvis_ortlesti its Editor be ig norant of the history of the country, that the ordinance of 1787, by wbioh all the territory of the United States was devoted to freedom, was the handiwork .leffarson himself, who several years - befov introduced the provision into the Congress Abe Confederation. It can not be ignorant of the fact that Mr. Madison was opposed the spread of slavery, and advo tated in the first Congress under the Constitu. tion, the imposition of a heavy duty upon the importation of slaves, so as to . .pretenCthe ex tension of the evil. It also knows that Mon roe approved and signed . _ the Missouri Com promise, the very act which the Nobrasba bill violates. 'These facts show the honesty of the 'Vollisiteer'n'n4 its Locofoco. Nebraska confed erates in - their - attempt to sustain - out of the most outrageous nets which was ever passed by an American Congress. , WHAT A Loco Foca Says.—The Berke coun ty Press, ono of the organs of deinooriioy of Berke " in mitiaing the passage of the Nebraska iniquity, says: "Thus by legislative legerdemain, and a Violation of the resolutions contained in the- Tigtmactatici plntfortn,;Which declared the compratniso of 1850 was a full and final settlement of the slavery question, the repeal of the Missouri Compromise was of footed. Such an unholy consumatiotz aa this act. on the part of the majority in Congress, to de stroy the most sacred„compact_ .existing be tween thOitates, adopted for the common pres ervation in 1820, to a deed .of blackniny infamy, ilocatning the very existence of our institutions, and which will yet be rebuked by the sovereign people. DOUGLAS AND THE CLERGY.—The valiant Senator from Illinois hoe made another assault on the Clergy. , Cause—another remonstrance against the Nebraska bill has been Bent in. it Is fortunste,says an exchange, that the hon orable Senator is eel clothed with the power of the Emperor &Mien, who placed eighty Christian Fathers in a ship,-eat it on fire, and then sent them out to sea. iya.Six Months of the session of •Congress has passed, and the two Moises have rodoalod the Missouri Compromise.

THE PRICE OP TREACHERY A Washington correspondent states that the paying of those who supported the Nebraska bill has already commenced. He says— ,' The secrets connected with the passage of the Nebraska and Kansas bill will leak out through Executive appointments hereafter.— Already by confirmation of the Senate, a son of Geo. S. Houston, of Alubama,, and a son of Dr. Olds. of Ohio, have been rewarded for their father's subserviency to the wishes of the Administration. Others will follow, and when, the slate is full, and the territorial appoint ments all made, then shall we hear of the broken promises made to membexil i s by the President, to appoint them Governors, Alas ! that honorable members should put. their trust in Pierce or princes, and be litirelf-' seed up with promises. It is surprising to see what small prices govern members in this market. A clerkship in one of the depart ments here, for a son, nephew or brother in law, will, alinost any vote of any ordi, nary member of Congress, end with a Saxon exceptions they are very ordinary members.-- Clerkships in advance will always secure a blind compliance with the wishes of the Ad• ministration. As an instance, Mr. Cobb, of ! Alabama, who is one of the most loyal and obedient supporters of the present Adminis tration, has two nephews here in office, with good salaries as appendages. One of these I nephews, was, as a boy, alltige in the House, and advanced front that to a $1,500 salary, under Col. Forney, in the General Land Office. Still a minor, lie continues to serve his coun try and honor his uncle. Such instances aro not rare, and they serve to iliUstrate the pow er of the Executive over the Representatives of thepeople. ,1 THE Boirrox , ‘Rto.r.L"Vlie Boston Traqscr:ipt in noticing the scones attending the delivery of Burns, the fugitive slave, - says. The leeson of the day will be ono of marked interest in our history. Tho resolution of public sentiment which the week hoe brought to light—the altered tone of the public voice— the strange circumstances under which the trial has been held,' from that which .prece, dad it—all have their monitions, which speak / in audible tones. which will be beard where EueNia ternnce will be effective. Perhaps such nn experience was needed to give men .conti r dance in the tone of public sentiment; to brink to a point and concentrate the scattered forces and to awake in Chilstian hearts now interests. in those great questions which loomup in the future. Banton never before wee so deeply moved cts nt this :hour. In all her revolutionary ex iierienee never presented such.a spectacle. As we hear the martial music, and see the long array of soldiers filed over tho spot con secrated by the Boston massnoro, we ask why is all this? Politicians tolLes that the vied lion is over, and that the Nebraska bill is a great meozure of pacification.

Si3htiol Directors Conventicin The Convention of School Directorswhieb met in our borough on Monday last, was both ;large and resifstable. The diseussio - enwere characterized by enlarged and liberal views, and gave gratif,qing evidence that.our excellent . Common Sehool system is valued and appreci ated as it • should be by our intelligent agri cultural community. A number of candidates far the new office of County Superintendent wore Ware the Convention, the most of them in all respects meritorious both as gentlemen and.. teacherif, - After three ballotings the choice of the Convention was declared to be Mr. DA XIEL SHELLY, of Allen township. • Mr. Shelly is a gentlemen of unblemished charac ter, fine attainments and greet experience as a teacher, We have known him for a number of ritrit. and feel confident that in his discharge of the duties he will not disappoint the eipee tations of the friends of education. In the district in which he now teaches be is univer sally esteemed, and his patrons will feel sin cere regret et parting with him. His eatery is fixed at Bfioo per annum, and be is elected for three years. Our borough schools will not be under the control of the new Superinten dent, having been specially exempted froth the —operations - oftbis - provlsinn — erthithew law-' "Brushing Up." The plasterers and painters are engaged in mnking somemuch_needcd-repnirs to the Court Ilouse. The mouldings on the ceiling of the Court room aro to be re modeled and the walls to he painted. We woulienlso suggest Wilt the keeper of the building he instructed to keep the grounds in n little better order, ns the walks are sadly over-run with weeds. Wo aro lookingiMpefully forivard,,tsq the day when our citizens will call for the enclosure of each of our public squares with tasteful iron railing to protect the trees nod preserve the grdwth of the grass, while clean gravel walks through the centre shall at the same time ensure to nl l progressives the indispensible "short cute' , across the squares which lost men need in hurrying and bolting through life. Sometimes we dream too of the time uherf lofty water jets shall rise from chaste marble fountains in our squares, flashing their diamonds in the sun and shedding refreshing coolness cn all around. A few superfluous dollars will give fruition to this fancy, And after our Fairmount is completed we may hope they will be forth coming. "A thing of beauty is a joy forev er," and if our public square, so naturally beautiful, is properly eared for it will be, a delight to generations yet unborn. The jnil wall along Bedford street contrasts badly wyr the elegant and imposing front of that edifice. We think it would be a decided improvement to make it correspond in color with the brown stone.of the front. ttesielling the Sheriff The Volunteer tells us of quite a desperate encounter which our worthy High Sheriff, Major 111c*DAntoosn, had some days since in arresting a black fellow at Cumberland Fur nace, known. as Whistling Tom. The arrest i gi f was mode with some ifficulty and the Sheriff was on his way ho 'di the prisoner. Af ter travelling severs ilea the negro was al lowed to get out for - a few minutes, but soon returned to the vehicle and while the Sheriff thought he was going to sent - himself he quick ly snatched his coat frino the' seiii and made oil to t)be mountains,- 'Fhe - Sheriff pursued and sooh overtook him, when Toni again made fight.. AbAlesperate scuffle ensued in which the Sheriff would probably have got the worst but for the aid afforded by Mr. Jne. McCul lough and others who saw the struggle some distance off and hastened to the neon°. The prisoner was then well secured and brought to Carlisle, from Whence be was taken to the Dauphin county jail. Sheriff McDarmond re ceived a number of severe blows but no serf ous injury llrag WhitAit We were shown a stalk of Mediterranean Wheat yesterday, taken from the farm'of Col. A. NOBLE, just on the border of our bM:ough, which measured foto feet eight inches high I A specimen like kliisgiy . ,es fine promise of the ' rich and abundant halfest whip our Farmers are soon to reap. . The reports of the growing crops are eo far highly encouraging from every section of our county. Both in quality and yield the grain crops are likely to realize the molt sanguine expectations of the Farmer. Ea—Sine° the above was in type we have been shown a stock of white Wheat, measur ing five feet nine inches, and a stock of rye six feet seven inches, from the farm of Mr. W, oT. BROWN. This rather beats the Colonel, and shows that Brown is "some" on produc tion. - New Buildings In Carlisle We believe there are not so many buildinss going up In our town this spring as there were this time last year, nevertheless there are several new ones now in progress of erection, and, as the summer advances probably. a few more will be commenced. On West High, street, ,we notice that Mr. HEN4I" RUOADB has .had the old tavern house owned by him torn away, and on its place there is now a handsome three story brick house, which; judging from the exterior, will bo a oomodiouo and spacious hotel' The•old building was unfit for a tavern stand, but the new one will be an ornament to that section of the borough. On the eorner of, Pomfret and Bedford streets, Mr. PHILIP MIIBBERSMITII , has orcoted for himself n very handsome brick Ilona°, intended for a dwelling and store. The"new building ocuPios the site of the - one destroyed by fire last fall, and in ct short time Mr. M. will be able in • his new quarters to wait upon his old eustomers.— On North Hanover street, T. B. Plhicart, Bag: has had pulled down the old And dilapldated frame shanty which so long disfigured that „ part of town, and soon-Its place will bo sup plied with an elegant brie* building. On West street,,Mr.• JACOD RneEM has erected two very pretty and eligible trick tenant hou ees. lOn East 'Louther street, the school di rectors are ablut having erected a. large and substantial brick edifice, intended for the ac comodation of two' of the public schools. On Dlekinson alloy, another building will soon he erected, in which will be held the school for colored 'ohildrtin.-- Volunteer. 8011001.4 DIRECTORS CONTENTION pursuance of, the,net of Assembly, pass.. pitat,the last tieeSiOrl of the Pennsylvnia Leg islature, authorizing the election of ti" County Superintendent of Conno'n Schools, the flOard of School Directors of the. several townships of Cumberland county wet in Convention hi , Carlisle, on,,tbeth of June, l titli. o'clock; A.
