A gentleman writin; from Washington to a friend in this place, states, that it is expected that Congress adjourn to day, without passing a Revenue Bill. County Convention. In to•da)'s paper w.II he found the pro ceedings of the Democratic Harrisonian Delegate Convention. They should have appeared last week; but, some how or other, they were mislaid or delayed, an that they did not come to our possession until Saturday last. It will be seen that the Convention was large and highly respectable, and the Ticket which they have submitted to the consideration of the People is in every respect worthy of the source from which it emanated. It is a ticket which is al together unexceptionable. All that the people have to do, in order to elect this ticket of their choice, is to beware of the plots and tricks of the enemy, and attend the polls and vote. The preamble and resolutions were adopted, we believe, unanimously. They will, no doubt, strike a responsive chord in the bosom of every lover of his country. We commend the whole to the attention of our numerous readers. Ott - The Democratic Harrison party of Union county have elected Congressional Conferees favorable to WILLIAM M. UAW ars ; and Senatorial Conferees favorable to . Naa MIDDLESWAUTH. Fire..--Supposed Arson. On the night of Monday the 15th inst., the barns of Daniel Tague, E-q. and Abra- 1 ham Long,—the latter in the tenancy of John Harman—in Cromwell township. were destroyed by fire. The loss of Esq. Tague is estimated at $2300, and that of Mr. Harman at about $4OO. It is suppo sed that they were set on fire by incendi aries, through malice; and Mrs. Thomp son, resident in the neighborhood, and her son, a young man about 20 years of age, have been arrested on suspicion of being the incendiaries, and committed for trial. Drowned. 'Last week a young German woman was drowned in the dam above this place. She was a passenger on a boat, and in the night got up and walked in her sleep and fell overboard. The body was found the next day. The Loco Focos and Mr. Ty- ler. The Loco Focos, and particularly some of the editors who have lately assumed to be "the true friends of the Tariff" are mi g htily pleased e, ith the President's veto of the Tariff Bill. "Oh, Consistency! thou art indeed a jewel." These same consistent politicians approve of every act which the President does to embarrass the country, and yet call the present a Whig administration, and charge all our difficul ties upon the Whig party. RHODE IPLAND.—Governor King has icetied a proclamation suspending martial law which has been in force in that State. There are only five suffrage men now in prison on account of the rebellion. Hear Ike Parasite John Tyler's organ, the Matlisonian, chile babbling of the veto of the great Tar -I.fr Bill makes use of the following language: tt We believe in the Christian religion.' !hough ever so unworthy the name of Christian. We believe in the special interposition of Divine Providence in he half of Hi: favored people. We believe' America is under lie Prot. W e believe Jour-i TYLen is the instrument selected to work not His will. We be lieve our country is destined to prosper in spite or the devices of gambling politi cians." It may be that Divine Providence has selected John Tyler as an instrument to work out his will towards the American People; but is not the conduct of thisl modern Jam) such as to convince the Madisnnian that he is an instrument for 'the performance of purposes of vengeance rather than of mercy. If his Accidency, the President of the United States, can be flattered with such absurd and fulsome language as is con• tained in the above paragraph, then we have nothing more to say—but recom mend a Lunatic Asylum to both him and his man Jones. The Enemy ',loving. Vk hat will the LOCO Focus do this fall?" is a question which we have often been asked ol late, and to which we were tillable to give any satisfactory answer.— In fact, that party has been wavering and vacillating, and not a man of them could tell what would be the mode of warfare at the approaching election. But, last l week, David R. Porter, the great Kicka ipoo Chief, made his appearance in this ;town, at head quarters," foul was in (close consultation with some of his dupes and tools; and NOW every man of the Loco Foci, party, or at least the leaders of them, know what is to be done. Another: scheme to humbug the Workingmen is set on foot, and the " orders" from the Kickapoo Chief are, as appears below, that a "mass Convention" be held at Alexan-, dria, on the 10th ol September next, for: the purpose of nominating a Ticket with out distinction of party. We cannot, however, believe that the Farmers, Mechanics arid Workingmen in the enlightened county of Huntingdon,: can again be deceived and seduced into a support of a scheme laid by cunning poli. ticians, and disappointed office seekers, fir the purpose of delewing the ticket formed in accordance with the democratic ens.' tools, anti which is in itself totally unob-' jectionable. No, we cannot for a moment, entertain the idea, that the Workingmen, the bone and sinew, and the right arm of the country, can be gut to aid in carrying out the selfish purposes of designing poli ticians. The people of this county, " without distinction of party," would like to see th.. wo,k a hirh the same laCtioll col out last fall, WORKED EP. Oar Crim inal Court is yet full of the bitter fruits 01 that association which was then formed for the purpose of suppressing cot ruption. but which turned out to be the ani,e eon. REPT faction that ever existed in our county. The same persons ►rho officiated as !great high priests around the pure altar of " John S. Isett's Society" last year, are again to assume the sacerdotal robes, and minister. at the same altar. Look out, then, for " bargains and sales"— for " agree ments"—and all manner of corruption. We give the call for a Convention a place in our columns, just as it was han ded to us, only remarking by the way, that we do not believe that more than four of the persons whose names are appended to it have ever seen the paper, or been consulted on the subject. Here is the l call—read it—and beware of the tricks of our wily enemy. Workingmen, ditend. A mass Convention of the Workingmen of Huntingdon county will be holden at Alex andria, on Saturday the 10th of September next, for the purpose of putting in nomina tion a county ticket to be supported by the Farmers, Mechanics and Workingmen of this county. All friendly to the cause are invited to at ttod, and every township in the county is solicited to send as large a delegation as pas. sible. The peduliar situation tuf the times and the oppressive barthens now borne by the laboring p , pulatien, render it advisable that they should (without distinction of party) take the Jr drs or Government into the it own hands. It is high time that party excite.; ment should cease, and that the public pod, and public interest should be attended to. - 11, order of the Central Committee. John Adams Thos.

The above was handed to us at a late hour, and we cannot, therefore, say all that we have to say in relation thereto at time, but will refer to it again, The Elections. Wc are not yet able to give any defi nate returns of the August elections. It Is, however, certain that in Nor, It Carolina the Whigs have elected the Governor, and j the Loco Focos the Legislature by a deci• tied majority. 'chi., will enable them to elect a Loen Vitro Senator to Congress the place of Mr. GrAhatn. Kentucky the Whigs have carried a majority in both branches of the Legisla• tore. In in liana the Lcco Foca% have a ma jority of 2 or 4 on joint ballot, which will enable them to elect a United States Sen ator in the place of Mr. Smith.

Stn:—The time is al most at hand when a Senator is to be nom inated in this District, and as the election will be an important one, it will not be improper at this time to enquire briefly, which of the five counties composing this Senatorial District is entitled to the man ? I take it of course, there are men it► either, well qual.fied to fill the station. First then. This district is composed of Hun• tingdon, :llilili n, Union, Juniata, and Per ry— well, Huntingdon had her Bell—Mit flin her McCullough—Union her McClay I --and Juniata has her Mathers. If this' then be true, as it most certainly is; then is not Perry entitled to the min at this time, and is there any reason why their claims should not be allowed! I True it may tie said Perry has always been largely' in the minority—but even that minority, she Ilan always held her own, and invari ably maintained integrity; a fact which cannot be said in relation to either Union or Huntingdon. Now the only interest I have in this matter is to see a Whig elected this fall, and to be successful Jog• lice must prevail. It is needless for me to say, that Perry has men well qualified for the station, and should John R. McClin. tock, Esq. who appears to be the favorite in Perry, Juniata and Mifflin, be a candi date, and a successful one, the Whigs will find, that a more worthy and talented representative they have not had.

Permit me, therefore, thro' your columns, to urge him up to his gen. emus work of enlightening the citizens of this county on so important a subject— they are anxious to see what this YEARLING who has seen but one crop grow in our county, knows about its firm/1,141 affairs.

MrsTznious.—A gentleman belonging to, one of the most ancient and wealthy families of this city, who must be well known to nu merous friends, having since the year 1818 up to recently, been bent nearly double, and for several years confined to his bed, has been restored to good health—has regained his natural erect position—and has quitted his carriage, and now walks with ease!! We believe this is the gentleman's own descrip tion as near as possible, and there is no ex ageration in it, We will give inquirers his address, and doubt not his humane feelings will excuse the liberty; so that any one doubt ing Mai know these facts—though he re quests his name may not appear in print.
