MOUNTAIN SENTINEL. Andrew J. Xhey, Editor. EBENSBURG, PA. Thursday, XoTtmbtr 18, 1S52. The New Portage Railroad. The prospects are that nbout the 1st of Decem ber the above road will be so far completed as to avoid Plane No. 2 connecting with the pre eent Portage at the foot of Plane No. 3. And, about the 1st of January, or perhaps sooner, a connection will be made at the foot of Plane No. 4, (which will be a permanent one for some time,) thereby avoiding Planes 2 and S. Up to that point the road is nearly completed, and the Engineers and contractors expect by the above time to have it in readiness for the cars, r The balance of the road across the mountain cannot be too speedily finished. There are several very heavy sections, for the completion of which, time and immense labor are necessa rv. They should, however, be pushed forward and worked continually. The present road is inadequate for more business, and is entirely behind the spirit and progress of the age. True, the Portage Railroad has performed won ders, and, we believe, more business has been transacted upon it, more freight passed over it, than upon any other road in the country. The rails were good, in fact, the very best, but their occupations gone" and they are nearly worn out. The new road must be made as soon as possible, else the old road will have to be re laid with iron, and other improvements be made upon it. The Central railroad will be comple ted across the mountain in twelve or fifteen months. The interests of the State, and of the Great Best, demand that the canals and rail roads should be placed in a proper position to compete with the central company. This can only be efi'ected by the speedy completion of the New Portage, and for the accomplishment of this object one of the first duties of the nex Legislature tdiould be, to afford means to the contractors, so as to enable them to finish their contract j at an early day, and have a road made which would avoid all the vexations and dangers incident to the passage of merchandise over the present corduroy road. Democratic Celebration at Jefferson. The Democrats of Summerhill township, eel" ebratcd the late victory, on Monday evening, at the house of James D. Hamilton, Esq., in Jef ferson. At nine o'clock in the evening, the per 60iis assembled partook of a most excellent sup per, and afterwards marched in procession through the town accompanied by a band of music, while the "Little Gun" bellowed forth thirty one times in honor of our victorious can didates Pierce and King. The evening passed off in a pleasant and joy ous manner. The democrats of Summcrhilj manfully performed their whole duty in the late contest and gave an increased majority for Pierce over the October election of ! "Will the ed itor of the Holiidaysburg Whij please inform us if he has heard any thing concerning those 29 democrats in Summerhill who, as stated by a correspondent, intended to vote, for Scott. We are desirous of discovering their whereabouts. Any information respecting them, or any evi dence as to the identity of the "prophet," who ' failed in his prediction to the Whij, will entitle the informant to the identical cent which Gen. Pierce gave the boy to buy a stick of candy with. V.'ho bids ? "The Home Journal." The above paper, which is undoubtedly the best literary weekly in tLe "nion, will te pres ented to the public on the first of January, prin ted on fine white paper and with new and beau tiful type. The terms are for one copy, S2 ; for three copies 55, or for one copy three year s S3 always in advance. Subscriptions to be addressed to Morris & Willis, Editors, 307 Ful ton street, New York. There is no paper more useful, more enter taining than "The Nome Journal." We always read it with delight and pleasure, and glean from its columns much that is instructive and particularly interesting. Its editorials are writ ten in an admirable manner and generally on subjects of peculiar interest. Its correspondence from many quarters is a valuable feature of the paper. Its extracts, foreign and domestic, are of the highest and best order of literature. The paper is really the ''Chronicle of all that inter ests all classes of society," and the home circle is hardly complete without it. If Dear Reader, you want a good eastern journal, and should fcubsmbe for the best one 'The Home Jour nal." You will find it to be a paper worth hav ing, containing every thing worth knowing. Fatal Accident. On Friday last, Mr. John Dougherty, a laborer on Messrs. McColgan and Dougherty's section, Pennsylvania Railroad, near the Summit, while at work was almostly instant ly killed by a tree falling upon him. The de ceased had been for some months in the employ cf the above firm, and had earned sufficient mo ney to be able to send for his family to the "Old country," and on the day of his death in tended to have forwnrded the drafts. He was u niofet worthy, industrious and saving man. Accident. A Bon of Mr. M.

The whole of the arrangements relative to the obsequies of the late departed Duke, have now been definately committed to the care of Messrs. Banting & Sons, of St. James street. It was at first supposed that Messrs. Dowbiggin hid been instructed to carry out the necessary arrange ments, but this departure front the usual course of public funerals has not taUen place, and 'the whole routine of the procession to, nnd inter ment in, the o-iJh:ral. has been intri'sted to the h inds of Messrs. Banting. th:in wlr,n. from the lon experience of the firm in ceremonials of this nature, none could be better fitted. To the care of Messrs. Dowbiggin has been com mitted the preparations and fitting up of the large hall of Chelsea Hospital, where it is in tended that the revered remains shall lie instate during three days, most probably the 15th, 16th and 17th of November. The whole of the large hall and approaches leading to it will likewise be hung in black upon this solemn occasion. It is believed that on the night of the 17th, the body will be escorted to the Horse Guards, where a state chamber will have been prepared for its reception by Messrs. Banting, to whose care the whole of the subsequent proceedings will then be given. Beyond these almost general orders little has been decided upon, the greater part of the details being still under consideration. The superb and appropriate designs (most of them emblnmatical of Ihe career of the dis tinguished hero) have already been executed for the catafalque or funeral car ; and Messrs. Banting only wait until a selection has been made by the proper authorities to give the ne cessary orders for its construction. Though, of course, only designed to serve a temporary pur pose, it will be as rich in its various fittings and emblazonments as befits the solemn occasion on which it will be used. It is intended, 'we be lieve, to be drawn by six horses, and will be as CUBA. We insert at length in another art of our paper, a somewhat remarkable article that ap peared in a late number of the London Times. The subject is "Cuba," and the disposition which is manifested by a portion of the people of the United States to invade and posses themselves of that Island. The Times has heard of the Order of the Lone Star, and has attached to the asso ciation more than ordinary importance. The Editor says that he can scarcely credit the state ments which bave been transmitted to him, re specting the power and extent of this associa tion, and he thinks it highly discreditable to the American people, that such a body should have been formed at all, for the deliberate purpose of plundering a foreign State. In thi3 seutimenta very large portion of the American public will concur. But the truth is, we have ever regard ed this Lone Star business as a "paper tiger" in other words, a very fearful scar crow upon paper, but a very insignificant organization in fact. Most of the prominent citizens whose names were associated with it in the rumors o FR03I OUR EXCHANGES. aB-When Alexander the Great was asked on his death bed whom he wished to succeed him in his empire, he answered, "the most worthy." When the fathers of the American Republic were framing a Constitution for the preservation of its liberties, they cherished the hope that the people would confide the administration of the new Government to "the most worthy." It has already been proposed to tear down the old State House in Boston, to make room for a monument to Daniel Webster in the very heart of the city. It should be a colossal statue of Quincy granite towering above all other ob jects. "Let it rise till it meet the sun in his coming. Let the earliest ray of the morning gild it ; and the last light of departing day, lin ger and play upon its summit."' jggyA Washing, on letter says that Gen.

It is added "No man regrets more than he does the unmanly vituperation and libels with e which the private character of his adversry was - 1 1 - l .11 1 A A the dav. have in the mostindignant manner, dis- I assaueu oy a poruon o. wie pn-M aau ... iuip Hnimixl all onnnPdmn thorpwith. m,l n fn thU I orators, during the late eanvass. lie recipocates hour we have no knowledge of any movement of the Order, looking directly to invasion. True, ever and anon we have a report from Washington, from New Orleans, or some other point, that another expedition for Cuba is in a forward state of preparation. This may be so, but we "aeg leave to doubt it. One of the latest stories is, that all arms an ammunition necessa ry have been procured, and are now deposited beyond the bounds of the United States, in a ! the feeliings which Gen. Pierce has repeatedlr expressed for him during and before the brief period of corruption now ended EQwOn the night of General Scott's nomina tion, the Washington Telegraph says, he paid a handsome compliment to Gen Pierce in the speech he addressed from his pizza to the mul titude before him ; and when General Pierce comes to Washington City he will undoubtedly receive from the old hero a greeting in the same Depot known only to a few leading spirits. The! spirit. During his administration, also, should men, it is added, are to leave the country as em igrants, unarmed, and will sail from different any emergency arise, calling for his counsels, the Telegraph predicts the existence of a most ports. But who are these men, and where have j friendly and agreeable intimacy between Gen. been organized ? Who are the leaders, and j Scott and President Pierce. where do the funds come from ?

A most magnificent can opy of black velvet, appropriately adorned, will also be erected over the space in the cathedral where the body will be placed. In the mean time the erection of galleries within St. Paul's continues to proceed rapidly, though we believe the scaffolding, about which the workmen are already employed outside the west front cathe dral, may very likely not be retained, or if so, subject to considerable alteration. The whole of the galleries erected within the sacred edi fice, Messrs. Banting are instructed to rove'-with black cloth, and judging the space occupied by the scaffolding, we should think between 11,000 and 12,000 yards would be the least required unuer me circumstances, ana the madmen en gaged in it would deserve no sympathy at the hands of this country.

According to uni. versal custom, in the town of Marshfield on tie Sabbath of Mr. Webster's death, between tL? hours of seven and eight in the morning, tie bell of the parish church was rung violently, to announce to the startled inhabitants within Lea ring, that a death had occurred among them Then it was struck three times three .as a signal that a male person had died. Next the bell wns struck slowly and deliberately seventy stroke to denote the age of the dead ; and then there went tip a mournful voice from every house, "it must be that Daniel Webster is dead."

The murderer was arretted early the nex1 morning and lodged in the jail at this place to await his trial at the next term of tbe Court.

Pittsburgh Chronicle. g,President Pierce is about visiting Vir ginia, where, it is said, he intends spending the winter. The Thiladelphians are making great preparations for bis reception. Meagher has just received a letter from his wife, who was still in Van Diemen's Laud.

Mrs. Meagher is expected here in the spring. From the same letter it ap pears that Galavin, the district constable who refused to obey the order of the magistrate to arrest Mr. Meagher when about to escape, has been subjected to persecution. He was not on ly dismissed from the service, (his salary being 120 per annum,) and fined 10, but was threatened by the government officials, who said he ought to be shot like a dog.
