    The apportionment Bill.
The Washington Correspondent of thel
U. S. Gazette, in his letter of the sth
"inst. says :—" There is a strong probability
that the Apportionment Bill will pass the
Senate with the clause requiring the State
Legislatures to lay off the States into
single Congressional districts, and to lay
off' the districts, too, in such a way that
each shall be composed of convenient and
compact territory. This is the fairest and
most republican mode of electing members
of Congress, because it gives the people
an opportunity of voting for men whom
.they know, and of knowing the men for,
whom tf ey arc called upon to to vote.—'
It is right, too, that there should be a
uniform mode of electing members in
every State.
The Crops.
It is pleasing to the people generally,
and to the tillers of the soil particularly,
to see so fine a prospect of a bountiful har
vest spread before them.
In this county, so far as our information
on the subject extends, the crops have
never presented a more favorable appear
ance so early in the season.
All our exchange papers from the differ
ent counties in Pennsylvania, as well as
from adjacent States, bring like gratifying
intelligence.
With all our national and individual
difficulties, we are a truly favored people.
O Mr. GIDDINGS, the censured mem-'
bur from Ohio, has been re-elected to
Congress by a majority of upwards ol three
thousand.
frr Mr. GEO. MOFFELANE has written
a letter to the Slifllin County Gazette, in
which he declines to act as one of the
Central Committee of the pseudo-Work
ingmen's Party of Huntingdon County.—
.He is too much of a loco loco to advocate
41 Protective Tariff, and therefore he
declines.

A NEUTRAL IN ARMS.—The Philadel
phia Ledger which professes strict neu
trality in political matters, and condemns,
all partizan presses for their violence, be•
ing galled by some remarks of a Harris
burg and other papers, alter declaring ,
...war to the knife" against all party pa
pers, breaks forth in the following man
gier:
-"We shall show that the "Loco Foco"
presses with all their professions of love
for the people have never consulted, but
:have frequently opposed their interest,
and that with all their prolessimis of hostil
ity to the banking system, they have al•
ways insidiously and covertly supported
4t, whenever the honest portion of the
community sought a reformation of its
abases, or whenever its iniquities were
in danger of exposure; and that whenever
..Whiggery" attempted to sustain the
system by bribery, "Loco Focoism" was
almost invariably the recipient of the cor
ruption; that it "Whig" politician, in the
plentitade of "Their" wickedness, brought
voters like cattle in the market, "Loco
Foco" politicians, in the plentitude of
their wickedness, were the cattle who
were bought."
DtscnAnoEn.--Messers. Biddle. Cow
perthwait and Andrews, who were bound
over for conspiracy to cheat and defraud
the stockholders of the U. S. Bunk, were
en Friday last discharged from their re..
cogniaances by Judges Barton and Conrad
of the Philadelphia Criminal Court.—
Judge Doran delivered an opinion differ
ing from the majority of the Court, and
in favor of bolding the accused to bail.
Dnimbim. ACCIDENT.—Aaron Van
horn, of Solebury township came to his
death on Saturday last in a most distress
ing_manner. He had gone do,vn into a
well for the purpose of cleaning it, and
in doing so he moved the pump which
loosened a stone in the upper part of the
well that fell and struck the unfortunate
man on the head and killed him instant
ly. His head was completely split open
by the force of the blow.—Bucks Comiy
Intelligencer.
,BOWDOLN COLLEGE, MAINE, has been
disgraced by a Hot, of students, who
on the evening of the annual Fast Day,
smashed the college windows, dislodged
and threw from the belfry the college
bell, and brutally assaulted Professor
Goodwin, who, in endeaVoring to identi•
fy the ringleaders, received a strong so
lution of nitric acid in his .face, which is
feared, will deprive. hiM of his eye-sight.
The miscreant who discharged it at him,
was partially identified, however, and
will receive the punishment due his crime.
Four of the ringleaders have been arres
ted and committed for examination.
A DUEL.—A duel was fought opposite
,Vicksburg, on Monday afternoon, the
'lBth ult„between Mr. J. Fall, Editor pro
tem. of the Vicksburg Sentinel, and Mr.
Thomas Robbins. Each was armed with
.two pistols, and fired both without taking
effect, when a general row took place be
tween their friends, on account of an al
leged violation of the terms by Mr. Fall.
The office of the branch of the Bank of
Tennessee, at Sparta, was destroyed by
fire, on Tuesday night, the 19th ult. The'
books, papers, &c,, of the bank were for
tunately saved.
Loco loco editors and politicians de;
nounce the Bankrupt law, but neither
hesitate to "take the benefit" of it•—the
latter by availing themselves of the bene
fit of the "rascality" law, and the lormer
by publishing such intentions. Consis
tency is said to be a "jewel," and that is
probably the reason why the loco-focos
cannot afford to wear it.—Nor• Free Press.
Arvo•ruii BRADDEE CASE.—We no
tice that Constable Hague, of Pittsburg,
arrested a stage driver a iew days since,
8 miles below that city on the Beaver
road, for robbing the mail in Ohio. It is
said that he is connected with an exten
sive gang, and is only an instrument in
their hands.—lndiana Register.
A WAnxxxo.--The Houston (Texas)
Telegraph warns young men about to cmi•
grate to Texas, to beware of intemperance.
It says Texas can offer naught to the
intemperate but an early grave. Of a
party of seventeen persons, who emigra•
ted from New York three years ago, one
only survives. This mortality is attribu
ted to intemperance.
The Ledger states that last week, a
poor woman living in Cohocksink, gave
birth to three children. This is hard luck
for such times as the present, but what is
still more hard, the father is out of em•
ployment. For cases of this kind there
should be a fund raised by a tax upon
bachelors, and expended by a committee
of old maiden ladies.
From B.iird's Travels in Europe.
The Sun at Midnight.
A steamboat leaves Stockholm every
week, and touches at Gene, Hudiksvall,
Ifernosand, Unica, and other points oh
the western coast of the Gulf of Bothnia,
at 'Vasa, on the eastern, on its way up to
cornea, at the head of the Gulf. This
voyage is a very pleasar.t one and gives
an opportunity to those who wish to go
up to that very northern city at the sum
mer solstice or on St. John's day, wheu
from the neighboring mountain they can
hive their Nth confirmed in the truth of the
Copernican system. For, at that epoch.
the sun, to those who are on that elevation,
does not descend below the horizon, but
is seen to decline to the northwest, and
verge more and more to the exact north ;
until it reaches at midnight its lowest
point, when it is just visible above the hor
izon. In a few minutes it is seen to com
mence its upward course towards the
northeast and thus continues its glorious
progress until it reaches again its zenith
in the south. Even to one who is at
Stockholm, at the epoch, the nights for
two or three weeks are sufficiently light,
from the refraction of the sun's rays, ow
ing to its being so little beneath the hor
izon, for the performance of almost any
business. We happened about the time
lour years ago, tube going up to the promo
tion of Upsala, and were obliged to trav- 1
el all night; and we have a distinct recol-1
lection of reading a letter at midnight,
with ease, even whilst passing thro' a for-'
est. And the year after the same season, we
often whiled away our leisure moments by
sitting at the windows of the house where
we stayed, on the English Quay in St. Pe
tersburg, a city which is situated in the
same degree north of Stockholm, and rea
ding unfil midnight. During that period
scarcely a cloud was to be seen in the sky,
which had both day and night, that light
blue which is peculiar to those northern
regions at that portion of the year, and
which is occasioned by the rays of the
sun striking the atmosphere of that portion
of the earth at so small an angle. Scarce
ly a star was visible in the heavens at
night, and the moon even when full, hard
ly formed a shadow. At that season,
there is something unnatural and death
like in the appearance of things, as night
sets in. Business comes to an end befiire
the sun goes down, all nature falls into
stillness and repose, whilst it is yet light.
And if you have been unaccustomed to
such a state of things, you seem, as Sou
pass the streets, whether itbe of Stockholm,
of St. Petersburg, Hernosand or Tornea,
to be in the midst of a city which is unin
habited. No living thing, perhaps, is to
be seen any where, as you puss street af
ter street, save some solitary sentinel,
with his grey coat and musket,
The Albany Journal of Friday says that
Christian Bork, the wretched man who•
murdered his wife so brutally—because
she remonstrated with him fur drinking
num—hung himself from the door of his
(dungeon soon after his commitment to
l
Jail. Here are more of the doings of the
demon of intemperance. One innocentl
being went down to the grave at his foul
behest—and another soul—stained with
the guilt of a double murder—is hurried .
to the presence of his Judge.
