A traveller, w hose name Tre have not learned, while walking up Plane No. 6, on 'Wednesday morning, was ran over by a train of freight cars. On Wednesday evening, Miss Margaret Car roll, in attempting to step over the 'wire rope on Plane No. 5,' was caught by the Safety car, which ran over her, injuring her quite severely. On Saturday last, between Plane No. 2 and 3. Mr. James Gallagber, a stone mason on the New Portage Road, while endeavoring to get on a lumber car, his foot slipped and falling on the truck the wheels of the car passed over both his thighs. The unfortunate man died on Sunday morning at four o'clock. On Wednesday forenoon, three or four loaded ears ran down Plane No. S. and there was a reg ular smash up. On Friday, near the Hnlf-way house, a man named Hopkins, lost his right arm by the wheels of a car passing over it. The arm was amputa ted by Dr. Sheridan of Johnstown, and the suf ferer is doing well. C. B. Cotter Esq., State Agent, was caught between two cars and bruised considerably. We hope the Captain is himself again," ere this. The AVtathtr. For five months "old Winter" has been with us and seems loath to depart. Monday was the stormiest, most disagreeable day of the season. Snow, hail, sleet, thunder, lightning and rain, accompanied with strong winds were, the order of ths day. A very mixture of the elements. Ou Tuesday the sleighing was excellent, the tnow being seven or eight inches deep. Wed nesday the sun beamed upon us gently and kind ly, and we had expectations of good weather, To-day, snow and rain, and plenty of it. How ever the "Soap man" has left town and he says we will have rough weather all week because he wasn't sufficiently patronised. Connecticut all 111;; lit. If we can belcive the telegraphic report of the election held in Connecticut ou Monday, the democracy have obtained a glorious victc ry. The whig party, always seeking to incorporate in its creed any new fanaticism which springs up mush-room -like in the country, planted itself upon the Maine liquor law platform in the above State, and if they have been so completely rout ted as the returns indicate, their professions for the intemperance of temperance done them little pood. The renegade Barn urn, who had deserted the flag cf his party to join the enemy, and who busied himself making speeches for the whi candidate for Governor, will yet receive the re ward due him for his apostasy. Humbugs are not so eagerly patronised now, the people are beginning to appreciate them. The telegraph dispatch says : Hartford, April C 1 P. M. The returns received up to this time are fa vorable to the election of Seymour. Dera., for Governor, by the people. Ho gains in every part of the State heard from. The Legislature will be Democratic in both branches, giving the Democrats a considerable majority, probably 20, on joint ballot. Hartford County.Las all gone one way, elec ting 30 Democratio Representatives and 3 Sena tors, against 8 Whig Representatives. "The School Journal. The necessity of a journal for the purpose of promoting the interests of Bducation has resul ted in the establishing, at Lancaster, of a month ly publication under the most favorable auspices, edited by Thos. II. Burrows F.sq. Long experi ence, and a complete knowledge of the wants of the 'people in regard to Common Schools, emi nently qualify the gentle-man for the undertaking, nnd nothing but an attenuate support of this magazine will b: productive of general good. Teachers, school t'.lrectois, and nil interested, can "read and learu" from such a publication, and we arc pleased to lay before our readers the following announcement tal.cn from the March number of the Journal, with the hope thatsome thing will Lo done here for so laudable an undertaking.- Kulargentent of the .School .Journal. When the School-Journal commenced, thede fclgn was simply to make it the organ of the Lancaster County Educational Assiciution, and th means, as stated in the pruppd-tus, " of arou sing a more active and general interest in the cause of Education" than then pre ailed in thi9 county. As such the editor consented to give In labor to it, neither with aa eve to profit nor sv. the expectation that its circulation would extend materially beyond Lancaster. It seems, however, as if it were about to be forced into a wider field. Subscriptions from several adjoining and some distant counties are daily coming to hand, and the work seems to be viewed as a state educational periodical. One gentleman speaks of making up a list of 50 sub scribers and others of considerable numbers in counties to which neither prospectus nor speci-J men numbers were sent. Under these circumstances, it becomes imper ative either to decline distant subscriptions alto gether, the Journal being local in its character; or so to enlarge and generalize it as to justify the reception of "material aid" from abroad. The latter alternative has after mature reflec tion, been accepted; and the following proposi. tion is now made to the friends of the enterprise in other counties: - - . As soon as 1 ,000 subscriptions, paid in ad vance or guaranteed by known persons shall have been received from other parts than Lan caster county, the number of the pages of the Journal will be increased from 10 to 32, at one dollar per annum to each subscriber; and the contents of the work will be made as generally useful and applicable to all the counties, as the abilities of the editor will admit. An average of about 20 subscribers in each county will com plete this number. In order to ascertain whether this proposition will be accepted or not, the number of the Jour nal contain u wU1 be forwarded to a few per sons in each county, with the request to editors who feel interested in the enterprise and its cause, to give this proposal an insertion, and if they desire it to put the School Journal on their exchange list. Should any to whom this proposition is sent, not feel inclined to promote it, they can place it in the hands of such persons that would feel an interest in the matter. Lancaster, March 25, 1S52.

In the National ibuse of Representatives yes terday April 5th, says the Philadelphia Argus, the vote on the adoption of this series of meas ures as a final settlement of this question was a conclusive one, and we think the night has pas sed and joy cometh with the morning. It wants but coolness and determination now on the part of those who have the execution of the law to fasten it fairly on the public mind in all parts of the Nation. In both branches of the Nation al Legislature the voice of the majority have spoken and with an emphasis that cannot be mistaken. It is with unfeigned delight we point to this evidence of the peaceful termination of a question that for some time induced doubts as to the continued joint relations between the States. But this has all been dispelled, and we are once more a united people, in feeling and in interest, as we were in the good old times of Jefferson and his companions, when the one thought was the welfare of the whole and no the sectional interests of a few. Long may this feeling continue ! The following is the resolution offered by Mr. Jackson, of Georgia: Resolved, That we recognize the binding ef ficacy of the compromises of the Constitution. and we hplSo"-- i oe the determinaiofr of the people generally, as we hereby declare it to be ours individually, to abide by such compromise, and to sustain the laws necessary to carry them out the provisions for the delivery of fugitive slaves, and the act of the last Congress for that purpose, included ; and that we depreciate all further agitation of the questions growing out of that act of the last Congress, known as the Compromise Act and of questions generally connected with the institution of slavery, as un necessary, useless and dangerous. To which Mr. 7illyer submitted the amend ment below, which was also adopted : Resolved, That the series of act passed du ring the first session of the Thirty-First Con gross, known as the Compromises, are regarded as a final adjustment, and a permanent settle ment of the questions therein embraced, and should be maintained and executed as such. After all the usual means had been exhausted by the opposition, to defeat the Resolution, it . . was carried by the following vote Veas 100 nays G-5. Mr. Kuhns whig, M.

Mr. Brown, of Mississippi, moved a suspension of the rules, for the purpose of in troducing a resolution to take up the Senate bill, giving priority to those not giving rise to debate, Mr. Clinguian objected. Mr. Jones sgggested to take up the Senate bills, the reference of which would not be ob jected to. Mr. Stanton asked leave to rejwn-t a bill to en- force the discipline in the Navy. Leave was had subsisted on one biscuit a day, for a consid granted, and he reported a bill providing for id-able time before arriving at San Diego, and punishment in the Navy. In a fcpeech of some length he explained the bill, and urged the pas sage of it In place of the lash, it punishes sailors for their offences by diminishing their ra- tions, and restricting them to diet of bread and water. In cases of theft, in addition, to wear a badge bearing the word "thief" upon it ; and to change the statute of solitary confinement to the wearing of ball and chain ; and the depri vation of liberty on shores, &c, are likewise to be provided as an inducement to good behavior. A system of rewards is also incorporated. The committee proposed to strike out the penalty of the thief badge. Mr. Stanton said that the commanders of the squadron about to sail are anxious for the pas sage of the bill, and he would urge its passage. Objection wa3 made by Mr. Stanton, who wished it postponed, and made the order of the day for Thursday. The demand for the previous fjuestion was made, and sustained, which cutoff the motion to postpone. The clause requiring a guilty sailor to wear a badge with the word thiefon it, was stricken out. The House then adjourned. HOUSE OF KEPKESENTATIVES. Haruisiu kg, Tuesday March SO, 1852. Mr. Kelso, from the select committee appoint ed yesterday to investigate the bill providing for the payment of the expenses of the Kossuth re ception, made report a 5 follows : That they have examined the several charges contained in said bill, snd recommend the fol lowing deductions : From the chanre of Daniel Herr $179 95, leaving his charge $100. From that of J. M. Lytic, at Hollidaysburg, !?50 CO, leaving his charge $300. They recommend the payment of the remaining charges, lnuke the whole bill .$1,335 87. After a long and unpleasant debate, and the proposition of various amendments, Mr. Flani- gau submitted an original preposition, making an appropria,ion of $1,555, corresponding with the origiual report of the committee, which was adopted, and the bill thus passed. The Latest from "Washington. Washington, April 5. The Senatorial caucus held on Saturday, to which, allusion is made in the Union this morning as being " a coalition between Seward and the Southern whigs," &c., was simply a preliminary meeting, with a view of consulting with the whig members of the House as to the time and place for holding the national convention. Mr. Mangum was in the chair, and Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, acted as secretary. The feeling ef the meeting was in favor of fixing the time about the middle of June, and Philadel phia, Baltimore, and Annapolis were spoken of as the place for holding, with a decided feeling in favor of the latter. All those points, however, emain for future consultation, after conference with the whigs of the House. The matter will probably be arranged thia week. 1 Two H'eeka Later from California. New Yojk, March 30. The steamship Cres cent City, ' from Chagrcs, arrived at 10 o'clock this eveniig, bringing 240 passengers, and one and a haV millions in gold dust. She brings dates from San Francisco to the 2d of Mrch, being two weeks later than our last prevous advices. Among the passengers by the Crescent City, are J. f. Clay Mudd and George Davis, Dele gates fm California to the Whig National Con vent iou. The Crescent City's passengers made the first trip orer the Panama Railroad to Navy Bay. AV the passengers upon the Isthmus had been taken off by the steamers Northerner and Oregon. The town of Downieville was destroyed by fire on the night of the 21st ult. The loss is over $200,000. The proceedings of the California Legislature possesses little interest, both political parties be ing busy with their State Conventions. The Whig State Convention met on the 29th, tnd the Democratic on the 23d ult. They each elected delegates to the National Convention, but left them free on the Presidential question. The efforts to call a Convention to revise the State Constitution, were being prosecuted with energy, and a bill for that purpose had been in troduced into the House of Representatives. Several defalcations have recently come to light. The Treasurer of Calveras county had absconded, taking with him some !30,uoo, ana the Treasurers of Sacramento and Toulumue had also absconded, each with large amounts. The Boundary Commissioner s party, under command of Major Bartlett, had arrived at San Diego, having lost on their route all their ani mals by death, and had themselves suffered the greatest privations. Major Bartlett had him self immediately proceeded to San Francisco, where he arrived on the 28th ult. The yield of gold from the mines has somewhat diminished, owing to the scarcity of water, very little rain having fallen since the sailing of the last steamer. Crime is on the increase in all the more pop- ulous towns and cities, particularly burglaries j and robberies The weather had boon remarkably and the Spring crops look promising. The Legislature had recently held its sitting in Sacramento. The Fugitive Slave bill wai 1 4 . , .,. t, . , , . , , , j likely to pats the feeuate, having already passed the House. Later accounts of the disastrous fire at Dow nieville on the 21st ult, represent the loss at $50,000. A great project is ou foot for the organization of a company to turn the South Fork of Ameii- can river. A series of Indian atrocities had been commit ted on Feather river, and some hundred miners had executed summary vengeance and justice 'upon as many of the criminals as could be dis- covered. The steamer Ohio arrived at San Francisco on the 23d ult., with the unfortunate passengers from the steamer McKim, previously reported at San Diego. Some of the McKim's passengers j had afterwards suffered extraordinary privations The ship Pactolus, which left San Francisco on the 3d of November last, eas not since been heard cf. The steamer Independence, from Panama, ar rived at San Francisco ou the 25th ult., with a large number of passengers. The steamship North America was wrecked ou the night of the 28th of February, about 70 miles south of Acapulco. She had an immense number of passengers on board, all of w hom were saved, but the vessel became a total loss. A number of Indians had been arrested at Onion Valley for murdering travellers, and sev eral of them were executed. The San Francisco Herald considers the mi ning news highly favorable, and says the miners have adopted a method of seperating the pre cious metal from the clay, known as "sluicincr." which will add largely to the yield of gold, and give an impulse to trade. Two Sidney men, supposed to be connected with a daring set of villians, who had committed numerous robberies at the Calaveras diggings, were arrested by the people, and executed on the j spot. The Whig State Convention was in session three days. Its proceedings were somewhat stormy. The delegates elected are W. F. Stew art, J. O. Goodwin, J. II. Clay Mudd, and R. W Heath. The Democratic State Convention was in ses sion four days. Considerable feeling and excite ment prevailed at first, owing to there being two sets of delegates from San Francisco. The Con venton elected as delegates Judge Lyons, Joshua Ilolden, AV. II. Itichardson, and J. M. Covarru bias. An attempt was made to instruct the del egates on the Presidential question, but failed. Ituiu commenced falling throughout the coun try about the time the steamer sailed, causing great rejoicing among the miners, The steamer Northerner, from San Francisco for Panama, had 250 passengers, and one million five hundred thousand dollars in gold. A regular line of clipper ships has been estab lished between San Francisco and Boston. Charles Dexter and Captain Daniel were found cut to pieces in their beds, at Spanish bar, on the 16th. The Anniversary of Washington's Birth-day was celebrated with much splendor at San Fran cisco. In Southern California the Indian disturban ces had ceased, and the Indians were again coming in to their settlements. The journey of Major Bartlett's surveying party across tho desert was very severe. The Mormon settlement at San Bernadino, was in a prosperous condition.. The followiug is now being debated before the Tilletudlem Lyceum : "Which causes a girl the most pleasure to hcai herself praised or anoth er gal run down ?" We shall issue the deci&ion m an estra. I Charles Louis Napoleon. We accidentally met, yesterday, with a shred of an old newspaper, containing an extract from the Boston Evening Transcript under the above heading. Some of the incidents'-given iy . tne writer, whoever he was, recent events have ten ded to render peculiarly interesting. We there fore give a condensed sketch of them. "This prince," (thus announces the article,) "whose late residence in Switzerland was a source of so much uneasiness to Louis Philippe, and who no doubt cherishes the delusive hope that he will at no very distant day be called upon to sway the sceptre of France, is the third son of Louis Napoleon, (King of Holland) brother to y Lugeme, and T:1 the Emperor, and of Hortense daughter of the Empress Josepl born at Fans on the 2Uth ot April, iuts. ms birth was announced by the cannon of the Grand Army along the whole line, and his name was the first inscribed in the register which was to regulate the right of succession in the Imperial family." .ot so very -ueiusive, aner an, as have turned out. It seems that Louis Napoleon v i it ? rA M ,. J was a particular favorite of the Lmperor, nnU in proof, this anecdote is related : "At the return from Elba, he stood bc-side Napoleon during the holding of the Champ de Mai, and was presented to the deputations from the people and the army, and when the Emperor embraced him for the last time, at Malraaison, although then but seven years of age, he showed very strong feeling. He wanted to follow his uncle, and cried out, weeping, that he would go and fire off the cannon. It was with much diffi culty that his mother pacified him. -His exile now commenced." In Switzerland, he devoted himself to military study, contracted the manly personal habits of the mountaineers, and in one of L13 letters to his mother, (dated Sept. 2d, 1820.) he writes thus: I am engaged in military reeonnoitering in the mountains, walking ten or twelve learrue ijy v main IVil Vi. ltl.iH. iVilUn' " ' . r f T , . , , ' . of Mr. Twvero a Radical Dcputv. S..in napsack n mv back, and sleermg i . . ,- . , . . - ,t I, r r ' i cl" whica were found in his house sovum it the foot of a glacier. .-, - day, with a k under a tent a He was thus employed when he was surr riseJ by the news of the Revolution of July, 1X a ) Revolution which he flattered himself would en- nul the treaties of 181 G, and put an end to ban- ishment. But, like xaany other exiles, he was sadly disappointed. A curious anecdote is told cf him, in connec tion with our gallant Lafayette, which ve copy. .vuer tne 1'uko oi Orleans Louis rhilir pc had been placed upon the throne by Lafayette, Louis Napoleon knowing that the Duke had frequently said to his mother, in 1S20, that should he ever ascend the throne, iie would recall the Emperor's family wrote a letter t-j the Citizen King,'' asking permission to serve a,-, a common soldier, so anxious was he to return to his native land. This applicati on of the enthusiastic youth, as is well known, was answered by afresh act of banishment .' Thisis cot the only instance in which the " Citizen King'' neglected to fulfil promises made by the " Duke of Orleans," as the great and good Lafayette soon, to his sor row, found ; w ho, in ISod sent word to the Prince that he much desired to have au interview with him. They accordingly met, and Lafayette em braced the young pretender with great cordiali ty, declaring that he bitterly repented of what he had helped to do in July, and strongly recom mended Louis Napoleon to seize the first favora ble opportunity of returning to France : " For," said he, "this government cannot stand, and your name is the only one that is popular." This, if true, is a very significant and impor tant fact in history. After many hopes and more fears, several es capes from danger from the Austrian Govern ment, who insisted on his being driven out of Switzerland, Hortense resolved on a bold and daring step. Though her sou was forbidden, on pain of death, to enter France, yet, " by means of a passport furnished her at Genoa by an Englishman, she boldly entered France, and after arriving at the Hotel de Iloli lande, in Paris, wrote to inform Louis Phillippc. An interview took place the " Citizen Royal" was all kindness made many promises which he had not, of course, the slightest idea of fulfil ling and in a few days afterwards, sent a mes- engcr to acquaint Hortense that herself and son must immediately quit France ? On his arrival in Taris, the Prince received an invitation from the envoys from Warsaw to repair to Poland, but the news of the fall of Warsaw, stopped him on the very point of departure." After spending some more jcars in Switzer land, where he wrote and published several pol itical, military, and scientific works, came the affair at Strasburg, (the attempted insurrection, and revolution,) in 1S3G; and the defeat of this was followed by his embarkation for this coun try. Hence he went back, at the time of his mother's illness, and was soon after obliged to leave Switzerland as a propitiation to France. And the writer we have been quoting concludes by saying " the last accounts we have had from him were that her Majesty's subjects were salu ting him in the streets of London with, " Long live Prince Napoleon!" Such sounds from such a source must have fallen pleasantly on his ear !" What a whirlagig is time, and what queer things does he bring about ! The Antt-L.ia.uor Bill. The bill to prevent the sale of spirituous, vi nous or maitous liquors in less quantity than thirty-one gallons, passed the Senate of Pennsyl vania on Thursday last, and was sent to the House of Representatives for concurrence on the same day. Whether the House will concur is a debateable question, and one which quite a large number of the members would just as leave not see debated or agitated; but the matter is before them, and it is hard to dodge the question. By many it is regarded as a question likely to lay them in their political graves, no matter how they vote, and heuce the indisposition to meet it face to face. But will dodging it not just be as likely to slaughter them, as to meet it fear lessly ; and we apprehend the present Legisla ture is as fit for the slaughter as any that is to come after it. liar.
