VOL: V. EE, ,- Q - .1,D AND EXPOL'ITOR. BoROUGH ELF:CTION.—The Election for Borough officers on Friday last passed oft without excitement. The victorious "Sam" had it all his own way. No Whig ticket was nominated in either ward, and but a feebly show of opposition made by the Locos in the East Ward. The members elected to Council, tough a majority of them are Democratic Americans, are good men, who may be relied upon, we think, to forward the "march of im provement." Three excellent members of the last.council_have_been,re elected. We subjoin the returns: Chief Burgess: E. Ward. W. Ward Armstrong Noble,* 202 189 Joseph 11. Blair, 80 41 Assis'ant Mavis.

His death enusAvnuch more excitement in New York than we bould think such an event would Tho cause probably was, that there was con. siderable of national feeling mixed up with his case. 'He, Tom Ilyer, and some more of his friends were the fighting Americans, while Morrissy, and his party were , Irishmen. His last woras before his death were of regret at falling before - a foreign foe. Poole societies have been formed in New York, Philadelphia, and probably other cities. The party engaged in his murder have all been arrested with' the eiception of the man Baker, who, kis thought, has escaped from the country.

MEETING OF THE BAR. At a meeting of the Carlisle Bet:, held in the Court House, on Tuesday, 'the 211th inst.; the following proceedings were had in relation to the death of Mr. Bonham. Judge GRAHAM was called to the chair and Lemuel Todd, Esq. nppointod Secretary. The followingzireamble andresolutions, off ered by Mr. Miller, were seconded 'by William M Penrose, Samuel Hepburn, A. B. Sharp, and James It. Smith, Esqrs. in a few brief re. marks : ' Another of our number has gone, and we arc called in sadness to bear his body to the tomb. but a few days have passed away since we followed to the grave one, who, although not old in yelrs, was looked upon by most of us as a professional father, nn assisting friend and adviser. Now, we mourn a broth er and . companion suddenly stricken by the hand of death, and snatched from our midst with appalling quickness. In the death of J. BUIS BONHAM we re cognise the hand of an All Wise Omnipotence who giies life and takes it away at his own will : While man, whose existence hangs on so 'brittle - thread bows wonderingly andsub- Missively to the decree, without impiously da ring to question the reasons of his God It may appear mysterious to us that one so young, so full of life and hope, aspiring to the goal of a high and honorable ambition, endowed by his Maker with brilliant talents, and qualified by education and laborious research io reach the highest point he might desire to attain— should be so suddenly and to us apparently so untimely called from mirth. But such has been the Lord's will and in his presence we stand silent rind bow the knee with deep reverence and binnility. In view of this dispensation of Providence, and as a testimonial of our high regard for our deceased brother, and sorrow for his loss, the members of the Carlisle Bar „have- Reso'ved, That in the death of J. ELLIS BONIIAM Esq., the Republic has lost from her Armament a rising star, and the profes sion an ornament daily growing brighter and brighter. Resolved, that wo sincerely deplore the de cease of J ELLIS BONHAM, in the full vigor of his manhood and the prime of his intellect. Resolved, That in the view of the talents of our departed friend, his eminent social qualities, his amiable disposition, and noble heart, we adopt as expressive of our sorrow all the usual tokens of outward mourning. Resolved. That we deeply sympathise with the father of the deceased, who is called upon in the desolation of old age, to bear the sad relics of an only child, to the sanctuary of the dead. Resolved, That ; a° committee of eight of our number be appoiThed to attend the body of the deceased to Chambersburg, and rerniiin there to assist in the performance of the last duty of the living , to the dead. Resolved, That the proceedings of this meet ing be entered on the records of the Court, that a copy be forwarded to theifriends of the deceased, and be published in the papers of the county. The Chair appointed the following gentle men a committee to accompany the remains to Chambersburg Hepburn, A. B. Sharp, Wm. M. Penrose, Win. H. Miller, J. B. Parker, James S. Colwell, R. M.

TTIE PEACE CONFERENCE Halifax, March 15.—The Royal mail steam er Africa arived here this forenoon with Liver .ool dates to Saturday the 3d inst. She brings the startling announcement of the death of the ttnperor of Russia. Early on Saturday morning, the 8d inst., it was an nounced by telegraph from London to Liver pool that reliable intelligence of the death of the Czar had been received. It was previous ly known that his physicians. had glven,him up; and This fact on Friday caused the funds to advance. There is no mistake about the matter. The fact. was announced in .the House — of -- 1-.ordErlkt Lord Clarenden,- and' in tho House of Corn-'-, mbns by Lord Palmerston. No particulars arc known. It is most probable that he died from apoplexy. His . death occurred on Fri day morning, the 2d inst. Theannouucenient caused - intense 'excitement - in -- England; - and France. The Peace Conference was to.open on the sth and the expectations of a peaceful rest* were stronger. Russia seems to be making attempts to come to an understanding with the Western Powers. An official editorial in the Correspondence of the Vienna enys: " A draft of a general treaty has been pre pared, securing the integrity of Turkey, and preventing the future encroachments of indi victual powers; also guarantying the rights it Christians. This- will be considered at tl.e Conference." All the Plenipotentiaries, with the exceptiett of Lord John Plisse!, had arrived at Vienna L )rd John had arrived nt Berlin, and immedi• ately procured an audienco with the Ring an.: Nlanteuffel. Advices from the Crimea _are of the ease -tenor- as those brought by -the Pacific. G t the 13th of February during the night; tl Russians made a sortie but not a formidnbh oie. Five Frineh so'diers were killed. Do ring another night sortie on the Atli the French lost thirty-five. On the 15th the con dition of the French troops were reported ex cellent. It is rumored that the north side of Setas topol is to be invested. Admiral Brouat tele graphs the following: "Camiesch Bay, Feb. 20.—0 n the 17th Eu patoria was attacked on the eastern side with eighty pieces of artilary and six regiments c.l Cavalry, under Gen.

The r loss was estimated at five hundred killed, non the wounded in proportion. The Turks had thirty-eight killed and two hundred and fiftj wounded,. The latter also lost seventy Irene The 'attack was not-renewed by the Russians. The steamers which anchored in the roadstead contributed energetically to the defence of the town " At Liverpool cotton continued dull, at pre vious rates. Breadatuffs generally were qui et at the reduced prices brought by the Pacif ic. Indian corn, however, was 6d. to ls. low er. LAVER FROM CA LLIFORNI.A. The steamer Northern Light has arrived nt New York with ten days later news from Cali• fornia.—Several banks at Sanfrancisco hail suspended, causing a great si•nsation, nod there are rumors of heavy failures among the • merchants. No election of Senator had taken place, nod the joint convention. had been bro ken up, by an . ndjournment, finally. Tito large hotels in Snit Francisco have been burn ed, and si.xteen houses in Nevada and twenty five houses in Stockton. The Legislature of Oregon adjourned on the 18th of February.— The Legislature of Washington Territory has fixed on Olympia ns the Capital. BOUNTY LAND WARRANTL-It is said that the Oommissioner of Pensions will not be pre pared to issue land warrants under the new. 'law for at least three months to come, The plates are yet to be engraved, the blank war 'rants printed, tho clerical force increased, and other preparations to be made. The firit warrant under the net giving land to those in the Mexican war, passed Sept22B, 1850, was not issued until January 11, 1851, more than three mouths after tho law was passed. We presume, it will take as long to get the new warrants ready. This will give applicants am-. ple time to prepare their papers, so that ne delay will occur when each case is presented. The Commissioner has issued his instructions, showing how applications shall be made for hounty land under the, late act, and who are untitled. The instructions say that where the .ervice has been rendered by a substitute, be s the person entitled to the bounty. A wid low, or if no widow, a minor child, or minor , thildrem'may claim the benefit of the act.— .'ersons within the age of twenty one yearn at the 8d day of March, 1655 are deemen mi. Mora.
