' From Philadelphia. " Ccrrupondenee of the Democrat $ Sentinel.. ; ' ' Philadelphia, 6, 1855. Our politicians of all parties have of late been very busy in preparing for the election in May j next, when a City Treasurer, City Commissioner, Councilmen and various Ward officers are to be elected. The contest will probably be somewhat animated. ; The regular Whig City Convention lias made its nominations for City officers. Dur ring its deliberations a scries of resolutions, strong ly 4 denunciatory of Know-Nothingism w-ere in troduced, butfLaving been laid on the table twenty-two delegates withdrew, and expressed an in tention of making separate nominations. The Democratic Gty Convention was held a few days since. . Before it was thoroughly organized objec tion was made to the admission of certain dele gates, on tie ground that they belonged to the Know-Nothing or American party. A committee of investigation was appointed who reported that, they should not be admitted unless they would declare under oath their innocence of the charge. The. accused offered to swear they had always voted the Democratic ticket, but as they declined taking the oath prescribed by the Committee, they were not allowed to participate in the pro ceedings of the Convention. ,' The Old Tine Street Church is about to be ex tensively repaired. This edifice was erected in 1760, and is interesting from revolutionary asso ciations. Daring the occupancy of this city by the British troops in the "War of Independence, it was used by them at one time as a stable and at another as a hospital It has had as pastors some of the most, distinguished divines which the coun try has produced, one of whom was Dr. Duffield, one of the Chaplains of the Revolutionary Con gress, Dr. Ely, and Dr. Alexander, afterwards of Princeton. ' - . .'. - A woman up town was burned to death recent ly in a shocking manner. No one was in the house with her but two, or three small children, and it is supposed that she was sleeping before the fire, whea by some mischance her clothes be came ignited. When she was scarce awakened, she rushed to escape, but in her fright, apparent ly mistxk the d xr leading to the cellar, for that leading to the street. About the time her Lus Land come home arid seeing some evidences of a conflagration, broke open the door, and although Lis wife was then still alive he was unable to ex tinguish the flames in time to save her. ; - Lager-bier has become cue of the lest estab lished institutions of our city. Numberless saloons have bce-j established, all of which appear to be d.. iu.tr a good buiuf-c-. The love of lager not only ench uns the souls of our German popula tion, but the citizens generally, and it is with very many of our American citizens a favor ite beverage. In a niim' fr of rooms it is ven ded in enormous quantities night'y in conjunction with sometimes a littie good, a good lleal differ ent, and much bad music, a spccie3 of combined enjoyment appropriately styled Lager Bier Opera. By a despatch from Nova Scotia, it appears that the" Lgislatur oi that rrovir.ee, has just granted a charter to facilitate the construction of a trans-Atlantic Telegraph Line, uniting Nova Scotia and Ireland. It is said that the capital has been subscribed, aud the parties are confident of having the lino in practical operation by the fall of 1858. It i.va grand project, and may suc ceed, but it will probably require years of experi menting and great expense, b-fore a reliable line can he established over so great an cvpanse of water. . Many of our Firemen, even those who belong to accepting Companies, refuse to serve under the present Ordinance; and in the event of a serious fire, scarcely more than one-third of , our recent tire organization would lc engaged in subduing it. -- One of our newspapers in an editorial calling public attention to a beautiful painting of a bull attacked by four dugs, which is being gratuitous ly exhibited at the store of one of our merchants, gravely caution visitors against taking their dogs with them, as on a recent occasion one of the ani mals who happened to behold it, immediately flew to the assistance of his canine friends upon the canvass, anil was only prevented from doing se rious injury by being caught by his "master. . The painter who represented a cabbage so naturally that after It became a few montlis old it obtained the odor of sour krout, must have been greatly infeTTor to the artist of this new work. One of our enterprising manufacturing firms, wluch has two establishments in the city a mile or two apart, has recently made arrangements for the erection of a magnetic telegraphic line be tween them, as a means of communication for the - numerous messages which are constantly "passing between them. It is probabiy the first private telegraph erected in the country. The large and valuable lot opposite the Girard House, in Chestnut street, upon which Welch's Circus and the Chinese Miueum were burned -down nearly a year ago continues to be covered with an unsightly mass of ruins, and uo arrange ments have yet been made to erect hew buildings upon. It is owned by a man of wealth residing in New Jersey, but he teems disposed for the pre sent to indulge in the " Dog in the Manger" policy, and neither build upon it himself nor sell the lot so as to allow anybody else to do so. In the very heart and centre of the most fashionable portion of the city, it ' a great eye-sore in its . present condition. . , ,'- Within the last few days ntimber of signs Lave been blown down from the tops an? fronts of houses, and in several instances have inflicted serious if not fatal wounds upon persons passing at the time. In the town of Progress, in New Jersey, a few miles up the river, a glass factory Las also been blown . down, and some seven or eight persons killed, and twelve or fifteen serious ly wounded. . Our markets have not recently undergone any important change. Beef cattle sell at the exLorbi- tant ate of from ill to 13. Flour commands to 410 per barrel ; Eye Flour,' $6,25 ; Corn Meal, $4,50 j Wheat sells for from $2,40 to $2,50 ; ye, $1,31 ; Corn, 95a96c; Oats, 58a59c. '- ' ... y.:':' - .. V-" Truly, Tours. " '"n. t Philadelphia, 12, 1855. ibe Hoard of Controllers of our Public Schools L adopted a resolution .recommending the Di rectors to set apart an Lour in each week for in traction in the science of music. Quak.erdoro.was horrified at the innovation end protested lustily against it, but all to no purpose. This is a !Qua ker City " now in nothing buta mere name. The sway and glory of the sect has departed forever. No proselytes Lave been made to it for years, and the ? vanities of the world " are entirely too at tractive to the great mass of young Quakers to per mit them to walk in the simple paths of their fore fathers, and to wear plain coats or plain bonnets. Quite a large portion of the decendants of former Quaker families have connected themselves with the Episcopal and other churches. It is only txn casionally that the prim old dress of the society is met with, and were William Penn to return to his beloved " city of brotherly love " he would find but a small portion of its inhabitants true to the creed and practices he was so much attached to. Avery athletic colored woman was arrested here a few days since on a charge of the commis sion of a burglary in New Jersey, (where she was sent for trial,) while disguised in male apparel. During the past wiuter it was a common thing for male robbers in this city to disguise themselves as females, but she seems to have preferred exhi biting her genius in that line in the garb they were so anxious to conceal. ; . . The Historical Society of Pennsylvania have re cently issued an Address recommending the es tablishment of a new. National Holiday, on the 17th of September, the day upon which the Con stitution of the United States was finally ratified. The suggestion is a good one, and should le gen erally adopted. The National Constitution is the great link which binds our seperate sovereignties together, and thus constitute .us a iKwerfnI nation, and this fact should be thoroughly and fully im pressed upon the public mind. .- Experiments ore now being tried with the new street sweeping machines, of WLich there are se veral varieties. ' In' one of them. the apparatus consists of a series of revolving brooms, which re volve with the wheels of the vehicle, with which they are connected. By Icing arrr.nged diagonal ly, they sweep the dirt into a straight line at the side, and thus they clean up a space of about four feet in width ' with each trip through the street, the horses travelling in an ordinary Wp.lk. ' ' A street of twenty-five feet in width, and one mile long, would be swept by it in from two to three hours, with the assistance of one man and one or two horses; and it is preceded by a sprinkling machine to prevent it kkkhig up too much dust. It appears to operate pretty well, where the sur face of the. ground is even, hut the old '( fogies" are ihcliV.fid to think it ho very great improvement on the eld plan after all. - -'- ; One of our physicians recently visited a family where a lady and her son, who was about fifteen months eld, were both ill. He wrote a" prescrip tion for each," and the apothecary negligently re versed the the endorse i:nt, so that the mother took the medicine intended for the child, and the child that intended for the liiethor. The latter died soon after, it was bolieveelfrom the effects of the medicine thus erroneously administered, and the apothecary was arrested ; but a postmortem examination satish'ed tLe physician that the child was carried oft' by a disease uninfluenced by the medicine, and the apothecary is thus relieved from a very unpleasant but de'served predienieut.. By the America, we have later news from Eu rope. " Before Sebaotopol there bad I ecu some hard fightiag, but without any ilecitlcd results. The sallies of the Russians are lepulsed J and those. of the Allies sliare the same fate. Louis Napoleon and wife are to visit Queen Victoria on the leth of April, and he is expected to start for Abe Crimea soon after. - Meanwhile, there is a faint hope" of peace from the deliberations of the Vienna Con ference. The first and second points abolishing the Protectorate of Russia over the Moldavian pro vinces, and placing them under joint guardian ship of the five Powers, and securing the freedom of the navigation of the Danube, appear to have been pretty well agreed upon. ... The third point lefers to " the attachment of the Ottoman Empire to the European Balance of Power," and on this question the Allies have rcceeded from their re quirement of the demolition of the fortress of Se-bastopcl.-The exact nature of their proposition is not known, but it has been referred by the Rus sian Envoy to St. Petersburg, and further procee ding i are suspended until he obtains an answer from the Czar. Gov. Pollock-has signed the bill abolishing the present tavern license system, and allowing it to be sold only by the quart, under very stringent re strictions.

What was the origin and purpose of it 7 We hear it frequently spoken of as connected with slavery, and as originally relating to that subject. Nothing can be further from the truthat the time that liue was established slavery existed on both sides of it. A brief account of its origin may be of some interest. As early as the year 1C82 a dispute arose botwecu William Penn and Lord Baltimore, respecting the construction of their respective grants, of what now -form the States of Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland. Lord Baltimore claimed to and included the 40th degree of north latitude; and William Penn mild ly yet firmly resisted, the claim. .-The debatable land. Was one degree ot 69 English miles on the south of Pennsylvania, and extended west us far as the State itself. The matter was finally brought into the Court of Chancery in Euglanl, and after tedious delays, on the 15th day of May, 1757, Lord Chancellor Hardwick made a decree, award ing costs against Lord Baltimore, and directing that Commissioners should ba appointed to mark the boundaries between the parties. . The com missioners appointed met at New Castle on the 15th day of November, 1775, and not being able to agree, separated. After a further : litigation aud delay, the whole matter was settled by the mutual agreement between the surviving heirs of the origiiutr-applicants. ; Tn' tnc year l"Gl 'Mr.' Charles .Masouof. the R.yal Observatory, was sent to Pennsylvania, with all the needful 'astron omical instruments to measure a degree of - lati tude. V That duty be performed, and a report of Lisproceedings was mad fcAhe Royal Secretary of London, for the year 1767.- Thk Mr. Maion and Jeremiah Dixon were appoint! to'nro the line in dispute,' whicb appears to Lave been done in conformity with the Lord Chancellor's decree. TLis is the famous " Mason and Dixon's line,f and the boundary between Pennsylvania on the south and Maryland on the north. -Any one de sirous of more detailed information will find it in Douglas History of America, published in Bos ton in 175l.v Proud's History of Pennsylvania, the Memoirs of the Historical Society of Penn sylvania, and 1 Veeey's Reports.

Lord Baltimore Little did the actors in this mat tcr think that in after times the line established with so much trouble and expense would ever be connected with subject calculatod to shakes great nation to its centre. .". .:.;' v - . .DIED ;: In Altoona, March 29tb, after a short illness, Johk LiLLy.in the 22d year of his ago.
