' CTTiic Senti.vel, has much the largest cir
dilation of any paper published in this county
and as an advertising sheet offers superior
inducements to merchants and business men

CTThis is the day appointed by Gov.
Johnston to be devoted to thanksgiving
and prayer for the manifold blessings be
stowed upon us by a most bountiful Prov.
idence. . From what we can learn, we be
lieve it will be generally observed through
out the State.
fFWc have not yet received the pro
ceedings of the meeting held in Johnstown
' a few davs since with a view of forming a
new county out of parts of Cambria, Som
erset, "Westmoreland and Indiana. Our
friend of the Echo did not publish them
as we were led to expect from his article
on the subject. We confess we would
like to see them.
Congress.
This body will assemble on Monday
next. As it is the first session under the
administration of Gen. Taylor, the Presi
dent's Message will be looked for with
considerable interest. We think it will
puzzle the Regency very much to find
excuses for the many blunders they have
committed since they came into power.
It is hoped that every democratic mem
ber of Congress will be present at the
opening of the seession. Should this be
the case, the democrats will doubtless car
ry the organization of the House, and thus
prevent their oponcnts from breaking their
promises by making any more removals
in that quarter. But if any democrat is
absent on that important occasion, the
contest may be doubtful. Let it result as
it may, however, we will endeavor to keep
our readers properly advised.
Col- John W. Forney.
With almost unparalleled unanimity,
the Pennsylvania Democratic Press have
recommended Col. Forney, the talented
and accomplished editor of the Philadel
phia Pennsylvania) , for Clerk of the Na
tional House of Representatives. In Bed
ford county, the Democracy, assembled in
mass meeting, united in bearing testimony
to his merits and ability to fill the station
in connection with which his name has
been brought forward. We are gratified
to see this, as there is perhaps not a man
in Pennsylvania who has labored harder
or more efficiently in the cause of the De
mocracy, or who deserves more at their
hands. His ability as a political writer
has deservedly placed the Pcnnsylvanian
at the head of the democratic press of
Pennsylvania, and he enjoys the confi
dence and esteem of the party throughout
the State.
Pictorial Brother Jonailiaa.
This mammoth sheet of Pictorial illus
trations intended for the coming holidays
has been received, and we must say that
it far exceeds any of its predecessors that
we have seen in point of design and beau
ty of engravings. The large engravings
of "Gen. Taylor and his Cabinet" and the
"Pleasures, Troubles and Miseries cf
Christmas in New York" are valuable
and spritcd pictures, and are alone worth
the price of the paper. There are besides
a number of others of nearly equal merit.
The price remains as usual 12 cents each,
or ten copies for one dollar. Address

We Icarn that this excellent family pa
per is about being enlarged and improved,
and drinted on an entire new font of type.
This paper ranks among the best of our
literary journals, and is very extensively
patronized. We are glad to perceive that
the enterprising publisher has received
such encouragement as to enable him to
improve and enlarge his "JFeekly," and
thus render it worthy " of additional pat-ronagft,
Important!
We learn by the last Johnstown Xeivs
that there is still an editor in this State
who has been unable to-perceive what has
rendered the present National and State
Administrations so unpopular with the
people!! The. editors of that paper ask us
to point out thc actis which I have made
these administrations so- offensive? to the
people as to induce them to place them
in a glorious minorit- and leave" them
nothing mere than the semblance of pow-
er. lien we hrst read the article, we
thought they were endeavoring to quiz
us, but on a second perusal we found that
such was not their intention. We con-
fess that we were considerably astonished
to find that our neighbors were so blind as
not to be able to see what every intelii-
rrant m n n in iha - ti t rr In.- 1,n cfnool
perceived. We did think that no man
who reads a newspaper, much less who
writes for one, would seriously ask such
a question, u e have been decieved,
however, and candidly acknowledge our a
error. And as our younir lnends. in ask-
ing the question, seriously confess their
-w - r
ignorance, we.may on some future occa-
sion, do them the favor of pointing out to
them some of the unpopular acts of the
Regency and Guv. Johnston, although by
doing so we may run the risk of offend-
ing cur other readers, who are all well
acquainted with the causes, with which
was brought about results so disastrous to
whiggery, but who will, we hope, excuse
our charitable intentions.
Taxable Inhabitants in Cambria County.
We have been furnished with the fol
lowing table, mnde out from the official
returns filed in the Commissioners' office
showing the number of taxable inhabitants
in each township in 1842 and 1849. It
must be a source of gratification to every
citizen of our little county to see how rap-
idly and steadily her population is increa-

the recent election in New York, breaks equally resolved to seek its dismember

very consolotary. But unfortunately thcir
assertion is false and every man in the
county at all conversant with political af-
fairs knows it to be so. The Newsmen

Sterling Uemocrai, ii is seusiuie uim ruun-
nnrl;nn of the democracy of this State, as a
gentleman of sterling worth and inflexable
democracy:
Clearfild, No'. 2, I819.
Dear Sir: I have your favor of the
27th ult., reminding me of predictions
which I made in November, 1818, and
which have already been verified, I had
then, as I have now, unfaltering confidence
in the strength of the great Democratic
party of this country. The'" truthfulness
and justice of its principles must give it a
controlling influence in our government.
It may be occasionally, as we "have seen
through some misguided impulse of the
people, receive a temporary check or pros
tration; but the "sober second -thought"
reinstates it in power again:., It. Js the
party of progress, and th3..6TuV party
that keens nice with the 'advances of
M
civilization that properly appreciates and
concedes to man his trite position on earth.
Under its influence our country has grown
and prospered in a ratio approximated by
no other country on the face of the earth.
Ours is truly the "model republic," and
i s influence, and the influences of the
Democratic party, are being felt the world
over. The seeds of republicanism are be
ing sown in all Europe, and sooner or la
ter we shall see the good fruits. Our own
truly Republican Government, founded and
perfected by the American Democracy, is
:he "cloud by day and piller of fire by
light,?' that leads on the friends of human
iberty in all Europe.
Our late victorv. in rnanv rcsneets. was
one of the most important, as well as one
of the most brilliant, that we have achicv-!
ea in many years. Uut opponents, in
some parts of the Union, were really be
1 - V
ginning ot regard Pennsylvania as a whig
State. Our late triumph will make them
sensible of this delusion. It is a well
timed rebuke to arrogant federalism. The
Regency at Washington, will begin to
think that their day of destruction is al
ready a hand. They cannot misunder-.
stand such abominations from the people.
i ours truly,
Wm. Bigler.

we have no doubt, take care to be fully

character and value of the Lake trade,
which is only one of the agricultural out
lets to the market of the world, may be
formed from a paragrph in the Buffalo
Commercial of Nov. 6th; which states that
on the evening previous, 15 steamers, 2
propellers, 2 brigs, and 21 schooners had
arrived in that port, bringing 160,000 bar
rels of flour, 49,000 bushels of wheat, 800
live hogs, 2500 boxes of cheese, and large
quantities of other produce. This is some
thing for one day. It is also noticed that

cargo ever brought in one vessel. So large
an interest as is indicated by the move

the guardian protectionship of the manu

Piussia and the Ottoman Porte.
Whatever may have been the ultimate
views of Russia when she imperatively
demanded the extradition of the Hungari
an prisoners, and threatened in case they
were not delivered up, to regard it as a
cause of war against the Porte; she seems,
by the last arrival, to have greatly changed
tier tone. She finds she is not the arbiter
of all Europe, though she has just suc
ceeded in forging chains for a proud and
noble race; a race, be it remembered, to

had supinely looked on when she poured
her battalions into the heart of Transyl
vania and Hungary, to maintain the inte
grity of the Austrian Empire and with it
the balance of power in Europe she now
finds when she assumes, as she has done
of late, the dictator, and seems to aim at
the subjugation of a neighboring kingdom,
or at least of its Danubian provinces, that
France and England rise up to resist her
encroachments, and if need be, to oppose
by force of arms a barrier to her ambition.
Well may she pause well ma)' she with
draw her haughty mandate to the Turk,
if by persisting in her demands she draws
down upon herself the confederated pow
ers of Europe. Where could. she look
for allies? Is it to Austria, who has so
many rival interests, so much cause to
dread her increasing power, and the bor
ders of whose empire open so many points
to her invasion? Is it to Prussia, Bavaria
and the other powers of Germany, who,
widely imbued with a liberal spirit, have
in the hearts of the people no sympathies
with the despotic views of the Czar? Is it
to Italy, whose aspirations, though sup
pressed by the bayonets of foreign pow
ers, are for the widest liberty to Italy,
ever jealous lest a Russian fleet should
float upon her seas? Would the crowned
heads of Germany dare to engage in a
war in the cause of Russia, when the
French revolutionary armies would invade
their soil, and raise the battle-cry of free-
dom on their march? "The wealth and the
naval armaments of England the war

Venice the bold and free spirits of Ger

whose brave defenders may be traced to
Russian bayonets the Poles, who, sold
and" betrayed, have deep and deadly
wrongs to avenge all would rise up in
one great league against the Northern des
pot and what would be his security at
home? One great battle lost, and he well
might tremble for the stability of his
throne. II is nobles, whose privileges he
has abridged, whose risrhts he has tram
'pled on and abused, whose estates he has
crippled with loans at exorbitant rates and
with the exactions of heavy arbitrary
fines, and whom his frown has filled with
awe his nobles, who control the great
body of serfs? that are the very sinews of
imperial power, would they not seek by
a revolutionary movement at home to re
gain the freedom and position they had
lost? Would not a crv of vengeance come
from Siberia, in the depths of whose mines
many a noble heart has bowed in despair
beneath the mandate of a tyrant's will?
Would not the Church, abridged of its
ancient power and made the menial sub
ject of tiie Crown, seek to regain its po
litical ascendancy in the State, and be
among the first to promote and join the
insurrectionary movement?
Well may Russia pause well may she
recede from the ground she has taken,
and accept a compromise from the feeble
power she has menaced with her arms.
From interest, from sympathies, from
opinions, the nations of Europe would be
arrayed in one unbroken phalanx against
her or if not, she could not rely on the
sincerity and faith of a single European
power. She would have to contend with
the civilized world, unaided and in a state
of isolation, and to dread the disaffection of
her oppressed subjects at home; and out
of the vast, remote and unwieldy elements
of her power might arise in the end a di
vided Empire. Home Journal.
From Mexico.
We received yesterday, 'files of the
Monitor Republicano and Trait d' Union
of the city of Mexico, to the 20th ult., the
Vera Cruz Locomotor of the 22d, and
the Jalapa Zempoalteca to the 23d, in

Don Faustin Villalva, raised the standard
of revolt at Cocula, near Igaula, proclaim
ing Santa Anna general-in-chief of the re
generating army of Mexico. He had but
fifty soldiers with him. He was attacked
by Gen. Palacois, his party dispersed, and
he made prisoner. Villalva was to be ex
ecuted forthwith.
Quiroz, the principal leader in the late
insurrection in the Sierra Gorda, after hav
ing been shot was conveyed to Xichu,

The Monitor says that rumoris current
that speculators in the funds of the Repub
lic, have corrupted some of the members
of the Chamber of Deputies. This is ap
parent from the apathy displayed by that
body, when the report of the Committee
on Public Credit was to be discussed. On
that occasion 22 members were absent,
and their being no quorum, the report was
not brought forward.
The question for and against the re-establishment
of the Jesuits, which has
caused an open war between the Gover
nor and Legislature of Queretaro, has been
referred by the former, Senor Mesa, to
the Supreme Government. The journals
at the metropolis are divided in opinion,
relative to the advantages and disadvanta
ges anticipated to flow from world re
nowned intriguing priests. The Monitor
is for the Universal against the revereud
fathers.

of the district, Gen. Anaya, lately gave in
resignation, on the plea of ill health, al
though the Trait d Union says the daily
reproaches made against the authorities by
the press on account of the inefficient pro

contributed to his retirement.

FOREIGN NEWS.
ARRIVAL OF THE
CAILIEIDONIA.
t ...
Boston, Nor. 25, 1849.
The Caledonia - arrived here at H
o'clock last night, from Liverpool. -
The intelligence by the Cafedonia is f
comparatively little interest. No-event
of special importance lias occurred in any
part of Europe. The aspect of affair ia
Turkey has not materially changed.-
In England nothing has : transpired oi
special interest. The new Minister to
the United States, H. Bulwer, has sailed
from Portsmouth, in the steam sloop PeV
nate. According to Hant's'- Telegraph,
his first business after arriving "-will be to
know what encouragement, if any, the
United States may give to the attempted
withdrawal of the Canadas from th Bri
tish rule.
It is understood he has full power to
resist energetically, all attempts at interfc
rence on the part of the United States ia
the Nicaragua affairs. It is said that the
English Government has intimated to the
Government of Canada, that no coercive
measures will be taken to prevent annexa
tion to the United States if the popular
will be decidedly in favor of thatmeasure.
Austria.
Some three additional executions h'a.vt
taken place.
Haynau has published an amnesty and
the Emperor has decreed that all ofEcerj
who return to the Austrian standard before
November 26th, 1849, are to be restored
to their rank.
The Jesuits are fast returning to Aus
tria. In Roman States things remain a
before. A deputation had left Rome for
Perticle, to request the Pope to return all
the universities in the Papal States arc to
remain closed until further orders.
Pussia.
Fuad Efifendi has been informed by
Count Nesselrode that the Czar demands
that the Hungarian refugees should be lo
cated in the interior of Caudia, or in such
part of the Turkish territory as may afford
the greatest facilities for keeping them un
der surveillance. If any of the refugees
wish to go to France or England, they
may be permitted so to do. The -Czar
will take no notice of their departure, and
notwithstanding the danger that may at
tend them, for whether inFrance or Eng
land, there can be no doubt but that the
refugees will busy themselves in prepa
ring for another revolution.

It was expected at Rome that the Pope
would be at Benevento, on the 30th Octo.

Hungary.
Mr. Carn, an American, had received
requests from the American residents of
Paris, tiiat he would exert himself in be
half of the Hungarian refugees.

Prance.
La Presse contradicts the statement to
the effect that the French government had
dispatched a courier from Paris to St.
Petersburg, to explain to the Czar that
the sailing of the French and English
fleets towards the Dardanells, was the re
sult of any misunderstanding.
Turkey.
Constantinople, Oct. 26.
Private letters from Constantinople an
nounce the British fleet at the mouth of
the Dardanella. The instructions given
by the English Envoy, on the 24th Octo
ber, expressed still more strongly the de
termination of the English government to
grant material support to the Sultan ia
case of an emergency, and to form a de
fensive alliance with the Porte, in the
event of Russia attempting hostile meas
ures. The French Envoy's instructions
were nearly to the same effect.
But though there was an evident desire
that France and England should actm
concert, it was not certain that a defensive
alliance would be formed with the Sultan.
In the event of war, it was understood,
however, that France would support Tur
key as long as she acted with prudence.
The Sultan and his ministers were greatly
pleased with the support of these two
great powers, and still more so by the ap
proval of their conduct by the Loudon
and Paris press.
No communication had been received
from the Emperor of Russia relative to
the reply of the Porte. It would be im
possible for the Emperor to commence
hostile operations by land against Turkey,
until Mav next, and it was hoDed in the
meantime that the dispute would be ad-
justeu.
nFTather Matthew was lately invited
to Georgia by Judge Lumpkin, President

to be the cause of the withdrawal of the
