116Mingdon Academy.
EXAMINATION AND EXHIBITION.
We have not room to give a minute detail
of the examination of the pupils at the Hun
tingdon Academy, in charge of Mr. I'. C.
MASSEY. The examination took place nn
Thursday last, before an attentive audience.
The manner in which the exercises were,
conducted evidenced that no pains had been
spared on the part of the teacher, and that
the the scholars had not been neglectful of,
the advantages presented to them.
On the evening of Thursday, the Philoma
thean Literary Society, connected with the
Academy, gave a public exhibition. After
a prayer by the Rev. Mr. Peebles, the audi
ence were addressed in a brief and appropri
ate manner, by James Orbison, President of
the society. Speeches, dialogues and select
pieces from the best authors, were recited in
a manner very creditable to the speakers,
and highly gratifying to the spectators. The
crowd who had thronged the house to wit
ness the performances, proved the interest
felt by the citizens in the laudable inst'tution.
I:7llince the above has been in type we
have received a communication on the same
subject, which must be deferred till next
week.
3:74' The Hon. JOHN J. GRITTEXDEN. late
Attorney General, has been elected Senator
of the United States, to fill the vacancy occa
sioned by the resignation of the Hon. Henry
Clay.
Congressional.
We have nothing of much importance from
Washington city. Since our last, the Senate
were engaged chiefly in the discussion of Mr
Clay's resolutfons relative to the Tariff, and
the Retrenchment of the expenses of the
Government. The District Bank Bill has
also been under consideration for several'
days and passed finally. The further con
sideration of the Exchequer Bill has been
postponed to the 21st of this month.
- The General Appropriation 11, and the
Apportionment Bill have been under discus
von in the House for the last week or two.
A BM requiring the Banks to resurneipe
cie payments on the lith of August nest,
passed both Houses of the Legislature of
New Jersey.
West Branch Bank.
The "Williamsport Emporium" of the 4th
Inst. says—"At a meeting of the Stockhold
ers of this institution, held on Tuesday last,
1. H. COWDEN, Esq. was re-elected Presi
dent, and Col. Taos. W. LLOYD elected
Cashier. Every effort is being made by the
Stockholders to relieve this institution from
existing difficulties, and place her affairs in
a sound and healthy condition. There is no
doubt but that in a short time, the West
Branch Bank will have regained her former
credit and standing in society--and enjoy, as
heretofore, the confidence of the People.
Some time since, our attention was directed
to the following article, which appeared in
the Harrisburg Keystone of the 29th of Jan
uary last. We did not at that time think it
a matter of any importance, and as our col
umns were then burthened, as they are yet
to a great degree, with advertisments that
are entitled to a place by contract, we passed
over it, and should perhaps never have
thought of it again, had it not been paraded
forth last week in the columns of the Watch
man, and endorsed by that paper, thus bring
ing it home, where many of the people 'know
the subjcct of the paragraph.' But, to the
article.
"I see that an opinion is entertained that
a change will take place in Governor Por
ter's Cabinet, and that persons have been
already noticed to fill these offices. If
this should be the case, I would take the
liberty of suggesting the name of Col. JOHN
C NESS W ELL, of H untingdon, as a suitable
person to fill the Office of Secretary of the
Land Office. Ido nut bring forward thi,
gentleman for any other purpose than the
one distinctly in view. His long unwa•
vering attachment to democratic princi•
pies—his early and efficient friendship fot
Governor Porter—his Nonnd and discrim
inating mind, and joined to all his affable
manners—pleasing address, and unsullied
character, pre-eminently recommend him
to the favorable notice of the Executive.
His popularity in this county is unques
tioned, and no man be he friend or foe,
will dare charge him with a single devia
tion from the path of democracy, while at
the same time they all concede to him
fairness and uprightness in his whole po
litical course.
Col. Cresswell is a business man of
much experience, and from my knowledge
of him, and of the office spoken of, I feel
well convinced that no man in the state
could fill it to better advantage, or to more
general satisfaction.
AN OLD DEMOCRAT.
We wish our readers to see the above arti
fur a Pore-fold ream. First—to show how
easy a matter it is to make a GREAT MAN, on
Japer, by 'slathering' him up in a manner
not slow ; and in the next place, to point out
a few inaccuracies in the article ; and lastly,
to show the object which prompted, and the
motive which actuated the author (who no
doubt lives hereabout,) in penning the same.
You perceive that the author signs himself
I 'An Old Democrat,' and talks of the 'long
unwavering attachment to democratic princi
ciples' which has characterised the valiant
COLONEL,, from a boy up ; and then, we
suppose, as a necessary consequence, 'his
popularity in this county is unquestioned.'
Such is the text, 'An Old Democrat's' story.
Now let us add a little, by way of comment,
gathering some collateral facts. It is believed
by many respectable elderly citizens, that in
' the year Anon Domini 1822, the same John
' Cresswell (perhaps before his promotion to
to the rank of Cotortxt.) was elected Com
missioner of this county, by the FEDERAL
party. So much for 'his lung unwavering
attachment to democratic principles.'
And now a few words in relation to his
mnuestioned popularity.' In 1836 John
Cresswell was a candidate for the office of
Sheriff of this county, and received 1362
votes, when Thomas Lloyd was elected. In
1839 Col. John Cresswell was a candidate for
the office of Prothonotary, (which he then
held by virtue of an Executive appointment)
in opposition to James Steel, Esq. He receiv
ed 1942 votes, being the lowest man on the
loco foco ticket except one. In the spring of
1840 John Cresswell was elected High Con
stable of the Town of Huntingdon, receiving
77 votes, being a majority of 42 over his
competitor. This was a complete victory:
an overwhelming triumph !! and we need
not say any thing more to prove that his 'pop
' ularity is unquustioned' at least in this town.l
Such is his political history.
We also see a .wce bit' of Col. Cresswell's
'early and efficient friendship for Governor
Porter' held forth by the writer of the above
'puff,' but we suppose that by this he means
nothing more than that the said COLONEL
has all his life been content to 'play second
fiddle' to Governor Porter. We see nothing
wrong in this.
The 'sound and discriminating mind,' the
'affable manners,' the pleasing address,' and
the 'unsullied character' of Mr. Cresswell,
are matters about which we have nothing to
say, for we know but little about them ex
cept what we have learned from the Key
stone's correspondent. As a man, a neigh
, bor, and a citizen lie is highly esteemed by
some, t.nd considered a gentleman altogether
too decent to associate with a certain person
age who holds a much higher office than that
filled by himself.
The object and the motive of the writer
no doubt was, to have Col. Cresswell ap
pointed to a higher office than the one he
now holds, in order to vacate the office of
Collector of Toll In this place, and thus
make room fot himself or some favorite ;
and his assertion that he does 'not bring this
gentleman forward for any other purpose
than the one distinctly in view' manifests an
over anxiety and an over cautiousness to con
ceal, that plainly betrays the author's real
motive.
The Resumption Bill.
This Bill has passed both branches of the
Legislature, and only wants the signature of
the Governor to become the law of the land.

Cough, Consumption, and of
Breathing cured. Mrs. Levy, a very
highly respectable lady of Philadelphia :
residing in Locust street between Fourth
and Fifth, had been laboring for upward
orsix months under a very bad cough, at•
tended with difficulty of breathing, pains
in her breast and side, and a sickness at
the stomach, having lost all appetite; she
became so very much reduced in strength
as to be unable to work; she was consid
ered in a consumptive state, and given up
by the physicians that attended her. In
this situation she had recourse to Brand
reth's Vegetable Universal Pills, and to
her great astonishment, before she had ta
ken one boa, (25 pills) hound herself very
much relieved ; she expectorated a great
quantity of phlegm, which has eased her
of one of the most violent coughs that ever
was experienced by mortal man. She has
taken the pills regularly ever since, and
now finds herself completely recovered,
and will certainly for the benefit received
recommend them as far as she can, belie
ving them to be a most effectual medicine
in the above complaint.
