NEW VEAK.
Saturday is New Year's day. What dreams
of overloaded stockings, mince pies, doughnuts,
lire crackers, cakes, candies, rais'.ns, figs, al
monds, &c. &c, will not the young 'uns have on
New Year's eve. The present year is flicker
ing in its socket, and expires on Friday night.
It is LE-vr Yeah too, girls, and one day will take
from you the liberty of "popping the question"
to some ' "nice young man ;" still, who cares,
says she, I can wait four years, I'm young, on
ly seventeen (we never knew a young lady to be
more) no hurry, dou't care about getting mar
ried until the Worlds' Fair opens in New York
in May, iDtend to have a husband who will take
a wedding-trip (nice thing) to the Falls, then to
the Fair, buy me nice dresses, fine jewelry,
beautiful furnituutf, splendid carpets, elegant
chandeliers, take a trip to Europe off we went
in a tangent; wouldn't do a printer. On New
Year's eve we intend to ruminate over the ills of
bachelorhood; ehc can console herself with the
knowledge, that Naomi, the daughter of Enoch,
was not married until she was live hundred and
eighty years old. Notwithstanding the editor
has a tooth-ache and the weather is changeable,
we now proceed to give our annual
ADWRKSS OF TS1C CAURIEIi.
'Twa3 New Year's eve ; the glorious orb of day
Had set behind the western bills ;
A golden hue did rest upon the
Clouds above, giving lair promise cf
A cheerful day to-morrow.
'Twas Leap year's declining sun,
Gone down upon the heads of many who
Were paired ; not so, oue year ago.
We raised our hands to heaven and prayed
That some fair daughter of the Earth,
Who had at least six thousand once a year,
Would, ere the eve had closed, solicit
Our hand to join with hers in wedlock.
Patiently, we waited, shivering in the cold,
Till the night had waned towards the
Witching hour ; the moon had risen
Long before and brightly shone upon the
Sleeping earth ; myriads of stars
Twinkled in the skies; presently a sound
AVe heard, as of the rustling of a dress ;
Fortune we th'mk is at our back; a hand,
A lady's baud, touched lightly on our shoulder
Breathless we stood , happy, yet fearful ; waiting
The question ; she whispered gently
And lovingly in our ear, with sweet
And charming melody of voice,
"Hebe's a r air of your, old boots !"
We vamosed, and concluded to finish the a
Love as soon as the snow fulls.
A word concerning New Year's Addresses.
Their publication is a custom,' we think, " more
honored in the breach, than in the observance;"
and, we will, therefore, issue cone ; permit us.
however, to offer to our numerous patrons, the
compliments of the season with the anxious
wish that one and all may enjoy themselves to
the fullest extent, and receive from the hand of
Him, who "giveth and taketh away," Peace,
Health, and Prosperity. here, and Eternal Ilap

: - MaJ. J no. Brady.
The above gentleman's name is mentioned in
connection wi:h the nomination for Canal Com
missioner, and we are glad to bear our humble
testimony to his eminent worth both as a man
and a democrat. AVe would be highly pleased
with the selection of a so justly deserving gen-
tleman, and promise in that event to give him
a rousing majority in Cambria, whether we
"sink or swim."
Hon. Kpliraini Banks.
The above gentleman, Auditor General of the .
State, is spoken of for re-election. AVe would.

travel far and not rna a better man ; and if we
kic mil aequuiineu twin ouic u t-iii. ujivu me
subject, there is little danger to be apprehended i
it r i :.k c. . v .1
that he will meet with formidable opposition.
He was made a' superior ofiiccr, and should be
retained in office.
Mayor of Pittsburg.
The Democrats of Pittsburgh have rc-uomi-nated
Hon. Johu B. Guthrie, for the Mayoral
ty. AVe earnestly hope the citizens of Pitts
burgh will re-elect hira to the office, because in
the opinion of men of all parties he has dis
charged his trnst ably, impartially and benefi
cially. The stain that rests upon the escutch
eon of the "Iiou City," since the elevation of
the notorious Barker to tVio Mayoralty, tltno
iibue can obliterate ; its magnitude can be les
sened by again conferring the office on one, who,
re-established confidence and order in the city,
thereby rcg;u;iing its character and reputation
abroad. : . .
?rttln uf the Lcgltluturr.
The Legislature cf thi3 state assembles at
rlnrrisburg, on Tuesday next. AVe hope one of
Hie first acts cf that body will be to appropriate
sufficient money to construct the new Portage
road as soon as possible. There should be
no delay on the part of the people's servants to
the early completion of this important work.
True, it id not the interest of our county to have
a new road made at all, but we believe it to be
the interest of the people of the state, and of the
great west, and therefore urge it. AVe Lope
class legislation may be put down and not again
buffered to raise its phantom head. AVe hope
the democratic members will have nothing to do
with Banks, cr a system of Banking upon state
blocks. Let them attend ttrictly to the inter
est? of the state and the wauts of their consti
tuents, fully examining every important and un
important measure before they commit a blun
der in supporting it.

The Addreu or fixe Ladleg ofEngland.
It was once eloquently said in the Senate of
the United States, "there is a spirit, which, like
the father of evil, is constantly 'walking to and
fro about the earth, seeking whom it may de
vour:' it is the spirit of false pniLAMiiBOPT
The persons whom it possesses do not indeed
throw themselves into the flames, but they are
employed in lighting up the torches of discord
throughout the community. Their first princi
ple of action is to leave their own affairs, and
neglect their own duties, to regulate the affairs
and duties of others. Theirs is the task to feed
the hungry, and clothe the naked, of other
lands, whil they thtust the naked, famished,
and f-hivering beggar from their own doors ; to
instruct the heathen, while their own children
want the bread of life."
Sucli is the spirit that actuated the aristocrat
ic ladies of England when they issued their ad
dress to the American ladies, for the purpose of
inducing them to take measures for the amelior
ation of the condition of the slaves of the
South ; which address -iwill be found in this
week's paper. Charity should begin at home,
and there tccomplish its true mission. This in
termeddling of England grates harshly on the
mind of every American; for, if the government
under whose laws these "christian" and "affec
tionate" women live, is so wonderfully humane,
and detests bondage so much, why not give the
benefits of freedom to the patriotic, liberty -loving
O" Brian and Mitchell. For their liberation, if an
appeal was made to the English government by
these quasi' benevolent ladies, it would merit
commendation and would exhibit a true and
praiseworthy charity. 'This, however, wc can
scarcely expect, and, doubtless if these eminent
ladies had the power, they would delight in
stili stronger riveting the chains cf slavery upon
the persons of these noble martyrs to the prin
ciples of liberty and the right cause of their
heart-broken country. These ladies need not
look across the "big pond" to rescue shattered
constitutions and broken-hearts from bondage.
The address begins in error and ends with,
the same. Thre is no "common origin." no
"common faith" between these high born ladies
of England and the ladies of America. The
forefathers of our American ladies taught the
English this doctrine at.Buukcr's Hill and
Yorktown. Nor arehe slaves of the South
denied "education in the truths of the Gospel
and the ordinances of Chiistiauty," as every
one of us is aware. -
The commencement of this interference in
our domestic relations is caused by the circula
tion in England cf "Uncle Tom's Cabin," a work
! written by an American lady, in which the evils
of slavery are so forcibly portrayed; not, we
think truthfully, but iii fictitious style, the book
savoring more of the novel than a faithful delin
eation of negro life in the South. Such publi
cations, intended to benefit the condition of the
colored race, exhibit u spirit of "fale philan
thropy ;" they do no service to the cause of free
dom lor-the blacks, and tend to alienate the
Southern and Northern portions of this Union.
As evidence of this the. "South and West Trade
Convention" recently, at-Baltimore; appointed
a committee of thirteen to report resolutions re
commending united action on the part of the
South and West, to concentrate on Baltimore as
a great commercial emporium. These publica
tions, along with a few more ..Lions in the
Northern Courts similar to tb.it of Judge Payne
in the Lemon slave cae in New York city, will
have the effect of removing the immense trade
of the South and West from the cities of Phila-
delphia, New York and Boston, and transferring
' it to Baltimore ; and in this wa', when there is
j no union of commerce, will the bonds of the
Union be loosened and the . affections of the
, northern and southern people sundered. We
should guard against such an evil, and watch
with vigilance the designing movements now
making to sow the seeds of anarchy and desolu-

Ihe "Woman s Rignts Convention, of this
,
I vuuuuv .jiave aiioruca mucu amusement anu
speculation for the English press. Often have
they berated us soundly ou that account, and
the present instance alf'ords au opportunity to
"turn the tables" upon them. This late pro
nunciamento looks as if the English ladies had
taken uch foolish assemblies from us, and
transplanted them upon their own soil. AVe
hope so. These English Duchesses, Countesses,
&c, move in such high life, above the suffering
millions of their countrymen, that they cannot
hear the pitious lamentations they pour forth
every day on r.ccount of the state of abject mi
sery and destitution in which they live. From
the cradle to the grave there are persons in
that country to whom the existence of a Supreme
Ruler isuukuown ; to whom the knowledge of a
Savior sent to redeem the world has never been
taught ; to whom the words of Divine Truth
have never been read, nor preached; who live
in a state of beastiality, degradation and w retch -ncss.
AVould it not be well for these kind ladies
to give freedom to these poor benighted crea
tures ; to teali them virtue ; to give a fraction
of their means to provide bread for the starving
thousands who howl around their palaces ; to
abstain from one luxury so as to appropriate
the cost3 of the same for the purchasing of cof
fins and decent burial-ground for those who
seek the grave as their only friend instead of
offering their gifts to. us. Let them alleviate
the slaves of their own country, they will find it
quite a task. Slaves of their nobility ; of their
moneyed interests ; of their mines, factories and
workshops ; of their establishment of church
and State, ye have wrongs to redress and these
"ministering angels" will fiftd enough of work
to do ut home. . . .1

Canal Commissioner.
Mr. Editor : Col. Henry S. Mott, of Pike
county, (familiarly known as the right wing of
the old 10th Legion,) has been named by many
Democrats as a suitable person for Canal Com
missioner. Suffer a subscriber to your pnpor to
suggest to the next Democratic State Convention
the propriety of nominating Col. Mott for that
office. He is a inan who in himself combines all
the requisite qualifications both from his edu
cation and pursuits in life to make as able a Ca
nal CommissioiK-r as has ever filled the office.
In the prime of life, active, industrious and
energetic, with "a thorough knowledge of the
resources, and an intimate acquaintance t
the improvements of the State, he is capable of .
bringing to the post all the essentials, requisite j
to make him equal to the first men who have j
ever discharged its duties, and a popularity ns
a man excelled by that of no other in thej.
