FOR GOVERNOB,
WILLIAM BIGLER.
Sytfioi to tht decition of ike Democratic Conventi-
FOR CANAL COMMISSIONER.
IIEiW S. MOTT.
t&ulfeet to the decision of the Democratic Convention
27" Our thanks are due lion. S. A. Douglass,
for a copy of his letter to the Governor Illinois,
on the Improvement of Rivers and Harbors, and
John L. Dawson of the National Legislature and
Messrs. Collins, Daugherty, and Humphreys,
of Harrisburg, for favors received.
The Nebraska Bill.
This movement in the United States Senate
has caned forth the condemnation of many of
the ablest men in the country, and has opened
tip the Slavery Question in its liveliest sense, a
roused the Abolitionists and their co-laborers, to
a lull sense of their importance and accountabil
ity. The Senate is occupied entirely with the
discussion of this subject, and is likely to con
tinue for some time to come. "We hope a speedy
action on the Bill will settle all contention and
Ill-feeling that pervades the breasts of some of
the members of that honorable body,, as their
speeches to plainly indicate. We published the
entire Bill a few weeks since that has raised such
a dark smoke, and which has cast a gloom over
the entire country. Every one was stunned with
surprise, so unexpected was the announcement.
Meetings are being held in all the principal cities
In the Northern States, for the purpose of sound
ing the masses. .
Fenna. Rail Road.
On Wednesday ult., the above named Road
was opened through from Philadelphia to Pitts
burg, th Train passing through the celebrated
Tunnell under the summit of the Alleghany
mountains, forming one of the most beautiful
pieces of railroad scenery in the country. The
grade on the eastern slope of the mountain has
been considered by many a project to heavy to
admit of transporting more then passenger cars,
and that the Company would necessarily have
to convey their freight over the mountains by
Inclined Planes, this has been proven unnecessa
ry by experience. The passengers will hereaf
ter leave Philadelphia in the morning, and reach
Pittsburg by 12 o'clock in the evening.
Liquor Law.
The subject manifesting the greatest interest
to the public has at last met with a partial con
sideration by the representatives of the people.
A few days since the Bill was taken up section
after section and 'put through' for a final reading
tn the House after meeting a successful passage
through the Senate. The bill provides for sub
mitting the question to the people at some future
day ; and omits many of the objections urged to
the Maine Law, and which undoubtly will add
to the popularity of the Bill.
Dr. A. J. Jackson.
The Doctor has arrived in town and purposes
remaining for a few days only. We hope all
those that have occasion to have any Dentistry
performed upon them, will give him a call. He
will be found at his office one door east of Col.
Heyer's residence, where he is prepared to receive
those that will favor him with their patronage.
Case of Jewell.
We were in hopes a few days ago that the Le
gislature would do something in the case of this
unfortunate criminal imprisoned in the Pittsburg
Jail for murdep, but the bill granting him a new
trial was lost in the House by ono vote, defeating
all hopes of escape. The day set apart for his
execution was Friday the 10th inst., but was re
spited by the Governor for a short period.
No paper was issued from this office last week
In consequence of all the hands attending the
Blair county Court as w itnesses, which we hope
will be sufficient excuse for the non-appearance
of the "Democrat Jfc Sentinel."
The Phila. Pennsylvania says that applica
tion is to be made to Pennsylvania and Maryland
Legislatures to allow the parties interested to
consolidate the railroad comprising the lines of
route between Baltimore and Harrisburg, with a
view to a more effective and economical admin
istration of their operations.
We learn from the last Blair County Whig, that
several persons were wounded, and one man kil
led at the Fortage Tunnell, on Saturday last, by
the falling of a portion of the frame work and
arching of the same.
'Hollidaysburg is infested with thieves !"
Whig.
Blair county is at present well represented in
the Penitentiary, and should she be lucky enough
to arrest all that have been committing offences
within her borders, she will bo ahead of any
county in the State. What says the Register
nan ?
We call attention to the advertisement of
'Nicholson Lands Caution to purchasers," by
Ed. Skocmakcr, also, "Kcw Arrangement," by
If hnps'fn and Brawfy.

praise of cither the old or new firm, as their rep

lished. Ovid F. Johnston formerly Attorney General

Bradford Cocnts. The Democratic Conven
tion of Bradford county has instructed its dele
gates to the State Convention to support the
nomination of Chester Thomas, of Towando, for
Canal Commissioner. Resolutions of instruction
were also unanimously adopted, in favor of the
re-nomination of Governor Bigler and Chief Jus
tice Black. Resolutions complimentary to Pres
ident Pierce and Postmaster General Campbell,
were likewiso adopted without a dissenting
voice.
Tns Erie War Over ! The prompt action of
the Legislature in repealing the Franklin Charter,
and the no less praise-worthy promptitude of
Governor Bigler in repairing to the scene of the
disturbance, has had the desired effect. The
track on both roads has been re-laid, and cars are
again running. The two tracks lap at Eric, and
facilities for changing freight conveniently have
lccn made. Order once more reigns in Erie !
and the Governor has returned to Harrisburg.
Prohibitory Statu Ticikt. Among the reso
lutions passed by the State Temperance Con
vention, which assembled at Harrisburg, is the
following:
Resolved, That should the present Legislature

Convention to meet in Harrisburg some time du
ring the month of June, to consist of delegates

Burning of the Steamer Georgia.
Further Pabticclars. The telepraph some
days age reported the burning of the steamer
Georgia at New Orleans, and the loss of a large
number of lives. The New Orleans Bulletin,
which puts dowa the loas of property, including
the boat and her cargo of cotton at $120,000,
says :
Women and children were thrown from the up
per deck, on the wharf, like so many sticks of
wood, while others, in their fright, leaped into
the water and found a watery grave. By this
disaster it is supposed that no less than forty per
sons perished. Mr. Jackson and one child, of
Barber county, Ala., were lost ; his . wife and
eight surviving children are now in the city in
destitute circumstances. Mr. Jackson had on
his person checks or drafts to a considerable a
mount, which were lost with him.
Mrs. Jolley and one child of Randolph county,
Ga., were lost. Mr. Jolley also 900 in money ;
which was all possessed. W. W. Dunn, of Le
noir county, N. C, one negro boy, with $250 in
money, but was fortunate enough to save bis
trunk. B. F. Loflin of Lenoir, N. C, lost two
negroes. Rev. J. M. Carter, of Clinton, Ga.,
lost three negroes, and his wife was badly but
not fatally injured in making her escape from the
burning boat. Dr. J. M. Young, from Hancock,
Georgia, lost a valuable servant boy, all his med
icinal books, surgical instruments, clothing
every thing, in fact, but what he stood in. Mrs.
Davidson, Ihun Macon county, Ala . lout several
negroes. Mr. Graham, from. Williamsburg, S. C.
lost two negroes and 500 in gold, Thomas J.
McLanathan, of Bristol, Ct., is among the mis
sing. J. B. Hubbard, of Bristol, Ct., was saved
but lost all his baggage, etc. A gentleman from
Stewart county, Ga.. whose name we could not
ascertain, lost several negroes. He was en route
for Arkansas.
The True Delta says :
One woman, who fell or jumped from the cab
in floor to the main deck, was caught on' the
points of the hours of an infuriated ox, and was
torn most dreadfully. But the ox threw her in
to the water and she was saved. Of the negroes
on board of the boat twenty at least, were lost
some planters losing all they had, and some lo
sing but a few. Scarcely a single family were
entire. A father, who had rescued his wife and
six children, went back for the seventh, and was
lost. A young man returned to the boat to look
for a female friend, but the names "yawned a
round him like a hell," and he was numbered
with "the unreturning brave."
A father saved three of his children, but his
wife and six others left their ashes in the funeral
pyre of the Georgia. A young husband lost his
wife, and he sat apart on the wharf as if indif-.
fercnt to whatever else might befall him. A child
three months old was taken to the Hotel, but it
had no relative to claim it, and none knew whose
child it was. A young man who lost his father
and mother, appeared to be more concerned about
$1000 which his father had left in the safe of the
boat than about the loss of his parents.
W. B. llhenn, of Newborn, N. C, with his
wife and five children, were saved, but he lost
nine of bis negroes.
ONE WEEK LATER FROM EUROPE.
AEJRIYAL OF THE PACIFIC.
New York, February 0.
The steamer Pacific arrived at 3 o'clock this
afternoon, with Liverpool dates to the 25th.
The Paris correspondent of the London Times
writes that the Einperior of Russia's reply though
not couched in very strong language, and de
manding an explanation, was yet of such a char
acter as to leave little hope of a change in the
Emperor's mind. It is stated that the popular
excitement at St. Petersburg is indescribable,
and the French government anticipates that an
explosion of such a kind may take place as shall
force the Emperor to make a formal declaration
of war before even his plans are arranged.
It is believed that 10 or 15,000 Russians have
crossed the Danube.
It is rumored that a despatch has been receiv
ed from St. Petersburg, announcing the resigna
tion of Nessclrode, and its acceptance by the
Emperor.
The ship An tart ic brings the rescued passen
gers from the wrecked San Francisco.
The splendid new iron emigrant ship Taylor,
from Liverpool on the 10th, for Melbourne, struck
and sunk in Dublin Bay ; 400 lives were lost.
The news may be briefly summed up as fol
lows : there is no abatement of actual hostilities,
and preparations are making for an attack, but
no further battles arc reported either on the Dan
ube or in Asia. The allied fleets were last seen
steering for Baloum with a fair wind.
The Russian fleet was also at sea.
On the morning of the Pacific's sailing, it was
said on the authority of the Times, that the Czar
has not proceeded to extreme measures. On
learning the entry of the allies into the Black
sea, he replied by the question, "are the fleets to
observe strict neutrality, or to take an active
part with Turkey ?"
It is telegraphed from Vienna, that the Czar's
final reply will be a contemptuous refusal of the
Vienna note, also referring Turkey to Gortscha
koff for further particulars, and asserting posi
tively that he will not give up one jot of Moni
schikoff s first demand.
Considerable movements are made along the
Danube, but no further battles have taken place.
The English people, foreseeing an immense
war, appear to have made up their minds to the
necessity, and quietly accept it.
Mr. Mason, Minister to France, has presented
his credentials.
The India and China mails havo been telegraph
ed. Calcutta dates to the 20th represent trade
in Indian dull.
New York Crystal Palace. The New York
Herald of the 13th, says, that the stockholders of
the Crystal Palace Company are out of pocket
$125,000 by the operation, and that no other
cause can be assigned but the mismanagement
of the directors ; the first and roost striking in
stance of which was the delay which occurred in
the opening : that had the Palace been opened
on the 1st of May, instead of the 14th of July,
it is probable that there wouldjhave been a sur
plus as large as the deficit now is ; that country
people lost faith in the scheme when it failed to
open as announced ; and thousands who would
have visited it remained quietly at home.
Pennsylvania Legislature.
Harrisburg, February 12. ,
SENATE. The Senate met at 22 o'clock when
a number of petitions were presnted.
Mr. McClintock presented a remonstrance from

vent debtors, and also a bill to restrain the sale
of liquors in Philadelphia.
The bill appropriating three thousand dollars
to aid the Rosine Association of Philadelphia,
was taken up, on motion of Mr. Goodwin, and
after passing committee of the whole was post
poned. Mr. Haldcman offered a resolution, which was
adopted, calling upon the Canal Commissioners
for information in relation to the issuing by them
of free tickets to the Directors of Railroad, 4c.
The Senate then resumed the consideration of
the bill prohibiting the manufacture and sale of
intoxicating liquors in this commonwealth.
The question being on the adoption of the 8th
section authorizing the search of suspected prem
ises.
Mr. Heister opposed the provision in en argu
ment of some length.
Mr. Buckalew moved to amend by striking out
so much as authorized the search of private hou
ses. He thought the bill so far incompatible
with strict justice and right.
The motion was rejected yeas 15, naya 10.
The section was then further debated by Mes
srs. Price, Heister, Darsie and others, and was
still pending when
The Senato adjourned.

A Valuable Squaw.
We clip the following from the Pittsburg Union:
An excellent opportunity for a philanthopic
young man of an educational and agricultural
tnm of mind, is now open "out West." The
Chief of the naynse Indians, in Oregon, offers
one thousand head of horses to any respectable
white young man, well recommended, who will
marry his daughter, a girl of about eighteen ;
settle down among them, and teach them agri
culture. - - 4
A correspondent ofthe Sturgis Tirarie Journal,
in making the matter known, says :
"These horses are worth from fifty to eighty
thousand dollars, I have seen this valuable
squaw. Site is about the medium size, with tol
erable regular flaturcs, high cheek bones, sloping
forehead, black eyes, and dark hair. Her form is
square and stut. Her long hair hung over her
shoulders, profusely ornamented with shells and
beads. She wore a robe made of fawn skins, most
beautifully ornamented with beads and shells.
Her step was light and proud her gait easy and
graceful."
, A fine chance for all all the objects men dream
dreams about. Fame, power, fortune, love, and
romance, all in a bunch, dangling from the hand
of an Indian Princess, only eighteen years old,
which hand and its accompaniments await the
acceptance of any respectable, well recommend
ed white young man. Who wants "a recommend?"
A Female Soldier. In the United States

months extra pay, and a warrant for one hun
dred and sixty acres of land to Mrs. Elizabeth

ritOCRASTlXATIOX IS THE THIEF OF TIME
Delay is dangerous neglect that cold and couglj,
a few weeks, auj the tope of recovery be lost to
you forever. Let not any pecuniary consideration
deter you from trying to save your life and health
while there is a chance. Consumption is annually
sweeping off thousands to the tomb; no disease has
baffled the skill of the physician like it: no pliysi
cian, perhaps, has done more for the cause of suf
fering humanity than Dr. Wistnr. An" ounce of
prevevUtive is worth a pound of cure, " therefore,
before your lungs become ulcerated, and so diseas
ed that no human means can save you from an
early grave, try in season, try at once, a medicine,
which has been of aueh infinite value to thousands
obtain a bottle of Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry, take it, get another if necessary, persevere
in ussng it, until you have removed the disease en.
tirely, which if neglected will terminate your life.
. Pulmonary Consumption has, until within a gew
years, been generally considered incurable, al.
though many medical wen ofthe highest standing
among whom we might mention Laennc and his
frieud Bavle both distinguished authors admit
that this dreadful disease may be cured, even in
its most advaced stages when the lungs are not com
pletely disorganized. The remedy which we now
offer, Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, not only emn
nates from a regular Physician but has been well
tested in all the complaints for which it is recom
mended, with entire success.

day the 8th inst., William O'Kekfk, Esquire,
in his eighty sixth year.
The deceased was among the early settlers of
Cambria county, where he located in the year
1805. Since, he held many official positions, the
duties of which he discharged faithfully and well.
He was born in the County of Meath Ireland.
He received an excellent Education and was
ranked amongst the clearest mathematicians of
his time ; his acquirements fitted him peculiarly
for the office of county Surveyor, which he held
for twenty-six consecutive years. The duties
and labors of this office, in the early history of
the eounty was responsible and vast, requiring
for their proper discharge & " great amount of
Physical and mental labor.
The duties of this position Mr. OTvecflb dis
charged faithfully, and has left the enduring im
press of his mind upon the archieves of the coun

cd him in youth and happiness, and the bleak
winds now murmur around his grave: The place
he once filled around the fireside, engaged in boy.
ish sports with his brothers and sisters, is now
vacant. The chair in which he tat, the loveliest
ofthe olive plants around our table, is now with
out an occupant. His voice, ever first to gro:
our return is now hushed. His eye, that rV
while, Fparklcd with intelligence, is now lustre
less. He is gone but the tears of affection will
bedew his grave, and many, many sad memorit
will cluster around it. Manly above bis years
for three weeks he bore his severe sufferings with
astonishing fortitude. Farewell, Drar Willie!
No more will thy merry carol awake us in the
morn to another day of toil and strife. TLy
bright, brief existence is ended, like that of soir
summer bird, v hich sings its song and dies. Thy
sufferings are over. Thy happy spirit has found
a brighter home than Earth, in the Palace halls
of Heaven." Again, Farewell, Dear Willie I We
would be resigned, but life's shadows arc gathi
ing thickly around us, and we fell like some old
oak, whose greenest bough, its joy and its pride,
has just been blasted by a stroke from lltavm.
A last Farewell, Dear, Willie! It is haid to
part with thec, but we submit with tearful res
ignation, to the decree of that Cod who doeth all
things, well, and with faith in the word cf Ilim
who said, " Suffer little children to come uuto
mc, and forbid them not, for of such is the king
dom of Heaven."
" Our dear ones are torn from us, ono by wie.
The golden links of our soul's love are severed ;
And mid the quicksands and shoals of life.
The heav' billows of adversity
Cast us forlorn and sorrowing. It is well, '
For God hath stricken us " . .
