The officers of the road with that promptness and energy which characterize its management, immedi -ately seta largo force to work, and by Sun day morning, the track was all right, and no further trouble is appreheniled.

On a resolution to . proceed to nom bate candidates a lengthy discussion anti() in regard to a platform, most of the speakers Pro posing to take the Constitution as a platform, during the disscussion, Oen. Leslie Cootnbs • of Ky.; said: . , • . ' Mr. President attsl gentlem en—i have given 'much thought to the question not' presented for the consideration of this ConVention.

The chairman of the delegation, At B. Nortmi, woro a beard reaching nearly to his waist, which attracted' great attention. —whereupon • Gen. 'Leslie Coombs rose, and thought it proper to account to the Convention for the extraordinary hairy appearance of the gen tleman from Texas. — Some fifteen years ago he had made a vow that he never would cut his beard until Henry Clay was elected Presi dent of the. United Staten—and it will be per ceived he haimost religiously kept hie vow. After several members had addressed the Convention, a*Committee on business tims'ap- . pointed, and the Convention adjourned until Thursday. The following resolution reported from the Business Committee; was adopted by acclama tion. That, Whereas experience has demonstrated that all platforms adopted by political 'parties have the effect to mislead and divide political divisions by encouraging geographical 'and sectional parties: Therefore, Resolved, That both patriotism and duty require that we should recognize no policy or principles 'but those resting on the broad foundation of the Constitution of the country, the Union of the States, and the enforcement of the laws; (great applause, and six cheers] and that, as the representatives of the Con stitutional Union party, and of the country, we pledge ourselves to maintain, protect, and defend those principles, thus 'affording secu rity at home and abroad, and securing the blessings, of liberty to ourselves and our pos• terity.

NEW Goons.— We refer ourremlers to the advertiseniMit of L . Liyingston's' second opening of Spring and Summer Goods, em bracing a large assortment of thelatest styles. THE MAttimr.—Our Market no Satur day last, owing to the rain, presented a very slim appearance ; butter was in demand at 31 etc., and could not be had even at that price. LA COMBER'S ALE.—WO were quite interested, a few days ego on visiting,the stone . building, so long, known as i.Barnitz's Brow House," to see the improvements which have been made there, by Mr. .LA COBWEB, - an en torpriiing gentleman from Philadelphia, who has leased it and commenced-the xnanufacture of Palo--Ale.---The .main building has been thoroughly renovated, and extensive additions .erected, to accomodate the increased -machin „pry Imocssary in BO large an establishment. 'Pure - Ale has - beeMentrequently - prescribed by Physicians, as a wholesome beverage for invalids, 'that it must afford some satisfaction to know' where it c can be had, and from the examination we made, ,We do not hesitate to say that those who use LA Counutt!s Ale, may rest assured that nothing - filthy, or deleterious enters into the composition of it. From the steep-tub, -where the barley is first prepared for molting, through the different processes of growing, drying, crushing. boiling, cooling and fermenting, until the ale is placed in the casks to "ripe e” for use, every thing is in perfect order, and the best evidence of its purity is a glass of the ale itself which is clear and sparkling as amber. With such a brewery here, it will be un necessary to vend for "Philadelphia Palo Ale," as by encouraging "home manufacture," we have the certainty of a pure' article, and we advise those who wish to be convinced of that fact, to order a keg of LA COMDEEL'I3 Ale. .TIIE OLD COLLECIE.—ID our notico twriweeks ago, of the destruction of the"Qld College" by fire,wo stated our inability to . get any definite information, as to the origin of the building. Since thed, a friend has kindly placed iu our hands, — an old volume of tho laws of Pennsylvania, which throws some light on the subject. From an act of assembly of 1788, we learn, that in 1773, the Proprietaries, Thomas and John Penh, granted to John Montgomery, Robert Miller, John Armstrong, James Wil son, George Stevenson, Robert Magaw; Ste. phen Duncan, Wm. Lyon and Writ. Irwin, this lot of ground, in trust for the purpose of "keeping and maintaining a Grammar School." The trustees named in the patent, erected a building which was used as a Gram• mar School until 1783, when Dickinson Col. lege 'was• established at Carlisle, by act of assembly. The Trustees of Dickinson Col• lege, enlarged the building, and occupied it as a College and Grammar School combined. In 1788, the surviving trustees, named in the original patent, and a number of the inhabi• tents of the borough, presented a petition to the Legislature, setting forth the fact; and as they, conceived that th,e good intentions of the Proprietaiies were answered by the es tablishment of the Collage, to Whielri mnr School, under the immediate direction of the faculty, was annexed, they prand.the Legislature, to pass a law, vesting the said lot and buildings in the Trustees of Dickin son College;. which was accordingly done, and the buildings continued to be used as a College, until the completion of new build-. ings rendered the occupation of the "Old COl• lege," no longer necessary. THE LATE RAINS.-bknoe our last issue, we have had a "juicy " time ; from Monday,. evening the 7th inst., until Sabbath afternoon it rained eldest without intermission. The 'Letort Spring overflowed its banks, and'all the low ground in the vicinity of the borough was under water ; along. South, East and the lower end of heather streets, the cellars have more or less water in them, no doubt, doing . considerable damage. From the old "Logtie' property, west of the Colored gravelar4, to the Fair Grounds,' thereis now an extensive lake, from twe to four feet deop, carried to that laeality by Pitt street, which - some years ago, was made a common - sewer, to drain - about' one half the town. Along the • Cone. doguinett, tin& Yeller! Breeches creeks; the fences are detilroyed on both sides, and ono or two bridges more orleas injured.

In faot, wo never knew a month that had such "water privileges," as May, and if she don't soon "dry-up," we may come to the conclusion that like some love-sick mai den, she has get the bystericke and can't atop crying. • . • seirWE were shown a few days age; a akin taken from a lamb abotit'tWelve weeks old, dressed in the wool by Charles B. Neck, of this place, in 20 hours, which, for its fine texture, and beituty or finish, we have never' seen equalled. It was dressed we believe fht:'Mr. Lenoir of Philadelphia. For mats and cushions,' nothing_is more desirable than those lambskins, , and Mr. Mock, has become quite celebrated for his proficiency dressing them. Ii„ATHErt WOOLY,—Our. young friend, ROBERT NOBLE, JR.,, sheared two sheep Mai; week, the wool from 'which weighed twenty pounds. This -is an unusually large yield, as five pounds per head is considered a fair av erage. We would suggest to our Democratic friends the propriety of keeping a vigilant eye on these-animals, as they undoubtedly have strong Abolition prooliA~ties. • • Tim - AICIIINGS.—A Memphis (Tenn.) Paper pays the following flattering tribute to Miss Richings, - who played a recent engage: meat in that city : •••- Gazzaniga, came with her great ireputat ion, and hung twice at the hall. The second night - it -was half empty. Miss Richings was con sidered the best singer of the two; and having heard both, wd r Tntlorse that- opinion. Be. sides the highest vocal powers, she possesses admirable acting powers. She is not a great tragedienne, or a great comedienne, but she is something more than either. She is good -in everything .she _attempts.--if-she -thrills you with her singing, she delights , you with her comedy ; if she makes you weep, at her sorrows, she makes you glad with the spirit of her mirth." • _ .
