the great interests of the people have been
eminently prosperups, except only the agri
lultural, which, in parts of the State, has
suffered from the. drought.
With the exception of a few cgmmunities
Which claim our sympathies, the blessings'of
health have prevailed. Our institutions of

The devastations of war which are now so
sorely afflicting the people of Europe—the
desolations of famine 'and ravages of pesti

favored Commonwealth.
These manifold blessings are the gift of
God, and to Him our most devoted thanks
should 'be offered. Under the sultan convic

Would be "acceptable to the entire Amer

The Votunierr, by the way, which has
been heaping the fimlest vituperation up
on Americans because they deem it safe
policy to exclude .AreiVners—natives of
Ireland, Germany, &c.,—from a too hasty
participation in the honors and emolu
ments of office in this country, makes it
a - ground of objection to Prof. Tiffany's
election that he is a native of Maryland,
ilthough that paper well knows that he
has been a citizen of Pennsylvaniaever
;ince his arrival at the years of manhood.
Phis is consistency, truly! Our prefe
rence for another distinguished gentle
man has• been previously expressed, but
we feel bound to say that the mere fact
of Prof. Tiffany being a native ef Mary
land is nut to be regarded as a bar to his
election. Our present Senator, the lion.
James Cooper, is also, if we are not
mistaken, a naive of Maryland. The
Vol wrier,. has a great horror of depriving
a raw Irishman or German of his "con
stitutional rights" to hold office, and yet
objects to the election of a native Amer
ican to a Pennsylvania office because he
happens to have been born in an a.ljoin
ing state about. eighty miles distant from
our capitol. What a rare „jewel is con
sistency !

SALE OP Tup ,PUBLIC WORKS.
One of the first duties, says tiie Lan
j caster Whig, that . will devolve upon the
new Legislature, will be the passage of a
law for the sale of the Public. Works of
the State—or at least. for the sale of the
Main Line. We mean no sham law or
bill pla%ing them beyond the reach of cap
! ital,or reason, but such a law as will sell
thenyat . the very highest price that thiy
are worth—or that can• be obtained for
them. The annual robberies committed
on these works, under the cloak of offi
'cial sanction and the protection of law
have not only amounted to startling mill
ions, but created in the public mind a
feverish and unquenchable determination
to rid the State of the nuisance, and
stop the anttal drain from their pockets.
The majority of new, antranimeled, In
dependent Representatives of the People
are expected to bring about this reform,
without delay, and without regard to the
murmurs of whining office holders.—
Let the Legislature destroy this source
of corruption and fraud, root and branch,
and dismiss the horde of political lazaroni
tricksters, and- plunderers, who have -for
a century quartered upon the indsutry of
the people eating out their substance.
The repeal and-abrogation of the,Canal
Board will give more joy to the people
than any other' act that the Legislature
I can do. - The pdblic mind is ripe for the
deed, and the popular voice has declared
for it. The letters of Mott cannot save
the public plunderers from their
. fate, an
indignant dismissal by the People. —' '

POLLOCK. FOR PRESIDRNT.
The manner in whie►
Whig papers of
high standing outside of. Pennsylvania ,
have responded to the suggestion of Judge
Pollock's name for the Presidency, is
significant of the strong hold which the
old keystone State now has upon the
country. The Detroit Advertiser of the
27th ult., after remarking that " Penn
..
sylVania, the Keystone of -the Pederat .
arch, the state which never looses its
electoral vote, the state which always
gives tone to the politics of the country,
has never yet had a candidate from her
borders, " des on thus :—" Smaller and
younger States can boast the honor of
furnishingo President. Even Louisiana
which did not belong to the colonial ter
ritory of Great Britain, when Pennsyl
vania was fighting for the freedom of the
eohtinent, has, given us a chief magistrate;
New York, one by election and one by
accident; NoNg, Hampshire a very small
one; Virginia several; - Tennessee one;
Ohio one ; and other state's, candi
dates without 'end. It is time that
Pennsylvania had her dues, and theie is
an appropriateness in nominating Pollock.
NEW YORK ELECTION.
The - State Election in New York took
place yesterday, and we may pbssibly re
ceive some returns before putting our pa
per to press. If the Teturns- -- are as cow
fused as the state of parties before the e
lection, it may be some time before the
precise result.is clear. A few days ago
it was announced that there were no less
than twelve parties in the field with dis
tinct State nominations -L'-CLARK, the An
ti-Nebraska Whig candidate for Gover
nor, being on seven of them. His chance
would therefore seem pretty fair. There
are five regular candidates for Governor
—Clark, Whig; Bronson, 'Hard ;' Sey
mour, Soft;' Goode], Abolitionist, and
Ullman, Know Nothing. The latter or
ganization it' i,s said is divided, a large
portion of thorn going for Clark. The
contest it is probable lies mainly between
Clark and Ullman.
A NEW PARTY.
The Locos of Philadelphia it appears
are -forming Clubs in the various wards
to be culled " Constitution Clubs," as an
offset to the Know Nothing moVement.
Ex-Vice President Dallas having been
appealed to, has given it as his opinion
that secret political associations - 4- this
sort are perfectly Const it ut ional, and ur
ges them to go ahead. The Pennsylva
nian, ive see, keeps rather shy of the new
niovement, seeing, probably, what is the
troth, that it is only intended to trip up
the heels of Mr. Buchanan, instead of at
tending exclusively to the preservation
of the Constitution.
TERRIBLETIMES COMING. The York
Rtpuhlican says, " some of the old Locofo
cos throughout that county are wonderful
1y put out about theyesult of the late elec
tion-. An old " residenter" of Codorus
a few days' ago, in conversing about the
- downfall of Locofocoism, said before six,
months "we will have war and a .king."
A brightpea truly, and worthy of en
lightened Codorns.
CUTTING LOOSE !-At a grand dem
ocratic rally in Detroit, on Monday - night
last, Gen. Cass presided and made a long
address. the course_of his speeclilie
commented severely on the attacks made
upon him in the Richmond Enquirer.—
Ho said ; he desired nothing from the

paper of so large a size; can be sustained
in that wilderness region of oui country:
