EFFECTS OF THE FRESHET.
From all quarters wo hoar of damages sus
tained by the present freshet. The breaking
of a lumber-boom, in the West Branch of the
Susquehanna, above Williamsport, set several
million feet of, lumber adrift, and for miles
bislow,the river wits covered with lioatinOogs.'
Along. the Juniata river, we,learn the flood
was very destructive, aid' the cars on the
Pennsylvania Rail Road• were delayed on Sat
urday by the land-slides which blocked up
the road. •
We were informed by a gentlenian on Mon
day, that a land-slitio occured on Friday near
Perrysville, on the Pennsylvania Rail Road,
which carried about forty feet of the rail road
into thti river; the passengert and baggage,
were at once removed from the cars to the
other aide of the break, when I;ritzther mass
of earth and rock wont down carrying three
te the empty care; into the river. 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 Sunday fifteen passenger oars left,jlar
risburg for Pittsburgh all crowded, and freigh

CONSTITUTIONAL UNION CONVEN
The National Union Convention,• to uomir

dent, met at Baltimore on the 9th inst. Del-,

•J. J. Crittenden, Joseph IC\ Ingersoll, .and
many tither distinguished Men..
Hon. Washington Runt; of New York, presid
ed over the Convention,assisted by,ttventy Vice
Presidents and twelve Secretaries: , The Pros.
ident made an eloquent address to the Con
vention. 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. So
"deeply have I been-impressed with the impor
tance of a platform to 6. seat political party
that I . have Laken upon myself the labor of
preparing three—[laughter]; • ono for the har
monious Democracy— [laughter] —who have
lately agreed together so lieaut ifully - tit Charles.
ton - [laughter; one ter the "irrepressible
conflict" gentlemen, who are about to assem
ble at Chicago—[laughter]—and another for
the National Unionists now before and around
us. [Applause ] - First, Dien, for thebarmo-
Diens Democracy, I propese . tee Virginia and
Kentucky resolutions of '9B—'99; one in fa
vor of excluding. slavery from the Territories,
and the other in favor of forcing it into them
=[laughter]-both to be adopted, unanimous
ly, without debate, under the previous ques
tion, and no questions asked afterwards.
[ Lau g hter. ] For the "irrepressible conflict
ists' abott: to assemble at Chicago,-I suggest
the Blue Laws of Connecticut; first, in refer
-once to the burning of-witches, provided, that
wives •shall have the privilege to be, kissed,
and old witches to be burned. [Laughter.]
The third is the Constitution of the United
States as it is, 'and the Union under it, now
and forever. [lmmense . applausej •I will
not speak with reference to the first, at large„
but I will venture to say that it will be as in
telligible hereafter to the wide spread Demoo•
racy as it hali - been heretofore—[latighterl;
and, tieing as intelligible,4 venture to state,
on all that I sin worth, that not one out of
five-hundred ever read these resolutions; and
of those who did, not one in five hundred un
derstood them. [Laughter and-applause.] In
referenes to our platform, the legislative, ju
d!Baal and executive - departments -shill be -ill
ependent and supreme. I think teat will be
platform enough for a Union party
. to stand
upon.' [Applause.] 'The Congress of the U
nited States to indicate the laws; the judicial
department to interpret them, and the execu
tive to. liave them executed. That is all we
need. Why,-sir, If I were In -an assemblage
of Christians about to establish a.platform,
do you think I would take "sprinklings" or'
"clippings". for, ts planks? No!—I would
takeAsernilkOntLftbo Bible as it is, and leave
'all to construe it, and be responsible to Odd
for the construction. [Applause.] •
Mr. Bw*ler, of Missouri, was ,about to,
speak, WlAtc.lbe Chair announced'• that the:
delegatiOn from Texas were at . theloor ottbs
building and desired admittance.
. - - 04
This announcement was received with deaf
ening applause, and the delegation proceeded
to the Secretaries desk and presented their
credentials. 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.

PEWS OP TEE WEEK.
- TRIAL OF Mosom—The- development, of
muscle leads not always to the prize ring.=
In Troy, New York, the other day, Joh n
McKinney and Patrick Kennedy; blacksmiths
both, had an-extraordinary trial of skill. , The
former challenged the latter to compete with
him hi making horse shoes for the champion.
ship. The challenge was accepted, and the
working timo.,fixed at ten hours; each man,
with his " helper, " went at the metal. Their
shops were surrounded through the day with
an interested throng, and ropes were stretch
ed about the forge to give sufficient space.
At the expiration of the ten hours Kennedy
had made 240 shoes, and McKinney 210.-- .
Near the close of the contest the" helper"
of the latter fainted from fatigue. It is not
probable that an equal font has over been
accomplished before.

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

that laeality by Pitt street, which - some years

and only occasionally do we see a streak of

that had such "water privileges," as May,

to the conclusion that like some love-sick mai

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.

to Miss Richings, - who played a recent engage:

--Our readers may remember we hare on several arca-
Mons spoken In very eulogistip terms ofa preparation
which Dr. SETH S. HANCE. of 108 Baltimore street, Balti
more, Md., has discovered for tan cure of Epileptic Fits.
Now, in doing so, we have been actuated. by the very
Treat motives, viz: the alleviation of human suffering.
From circuthstanies which have lately come to. our
knowledge, we fear there is a certain class of persona
who'are not disposed to try this remedy in a common
eenso manner. We allude to the fact of selecting a par
ticular case in a town whore' perhaps' there are six or
eight cases, and trying It ou one rase.
.Now, perhaps
the rase selected might be the only ono of the whole
number that it would not cure. This is neither doing
themselves or the niedlclue justice: If a dozen persons
were stricken &rn with cholera In ono town or neigh
borhood, would they all send fore physleirtn, or would
only ono employ him, and wait and see if he cured the
first patient? That plan of procedure would be moot
absurd. So in the rate of Dr. ilance's.remedy, every pee
who hoe Fits should try It fora reasocable length of
Limo.., It will not cure In aday or week; nothing worth
doing can be accomplished at once. What is easily dot.
is as easily undone. The growtivol time is •ndurlng
