Stever, Spruce Creek, on Saturday next. The Contest for Governor. The late legislature Investigation has brought to light the fact that some of the printers at Harris. burg for many years, and without distinction of par ty, have plundered the public treasury• by exorbi tant prices, and over-charges for work. Thousands of dollars have thus been filched from the State. This of itself throws some light on a matter that might otherwise seem strange to HONEST persons. •An effect is made, and a most unfair one too, to prevent the nomination of Gen. Irvin for the office of Governor by the 4th of March Convention.— That gentleman's well known character for honesty and integrity in public and in private transactions, does not seem to take with those disinterested creatures at Harrisburg. for they know that with him as the guardian of the interests of this much abused and plundered Commonwealth, there would he no chance for them. These remarks are inten ded only for such as may deem themselves justifia ble in appropriating the same to themselves. A most unprincipled attempt is made at Harris burg to stir up a strife between some of the promi nent candidates for the Gubernatorial Chair and their respective friends. Special pains are taken to create a " war" between the friends of Gen. Irvin and those of Judge Banks. The contest seems to have narrowed down to these two gentlemen, and the truth is either of them would make an excellent Governor and we could cheerfully enroll ourself un der the banner of either, and struggle for victory; although our preference, as is well known is Irvin. 'lime Harrisburg editors, whose motto is " rule or ruin," think by stirring up a strife, and setting the respective friends of the gentlemen named against each other, their choice, Gen. Joseph Markle, may stand some chance of the nomination. A small paper of a most disguisting character, railed The Old Warrior," was issued last week at Harrisburg, for the special praise of Markle. For the honor of the party, however, we state that the paper is not to be continued, unless there is a good prospect of dealings ahead. The " Stevens faction" too, with the Telegraph, are striking for Markle; and they, no doubt, are at the bottom of the whole movement. They use the most deeperale means to succeed ; but the people, who are tired of following in their wake, will take a short turn upon these rule or ruin" leaders.— We say nothing against their favorite, (;en. Joseph Markle, for we know but little about him; nor has his " fame" reached this "meridian." We are A Shocking Case. A case involving circumstances of extreme mis ery was tried at the Wiltshire (England) assizes lately. One Litton was put to the bar charged with murdering his own child. The prisoner woe a laboring man, and for want of employment was obliged to go into the union workhouse, but soon came out again, and returned with his family to his former cot. Thence ho was ejected, and borrowing some hurdles and some straw, raised a kind of shel ter by the roadside. He obtained a little work but was warned by the police that his frail habitation was an obstruction to the road. In despair, the A Strong Delegation. i wretched man fired it, and his three little ones were The Lancaster E xaminer came to us last week burned to a cinder. One poor thing had his skull with seven columns of names of persons appointed i fractured, and hence the prosecution. The jury delegatesby various townships, to the Young Men's I acquitted the prisoner. Convention at Baltimore told by hispecullar friends that he is an "Old war rior," and they dub him "the Indian fighter."— Those terms, however do not possess the magic potter which their authors ascribe to them. The old " Indian"(—and we hope he is not related to the "Kiekapoo" tribe)—may be a good man—hon- est and capable—but is his present company good? Would he, if elected, govern the State; or would his peculiar friends have the kindness to govern for hint; and talk "Indian talk" to the "old Indian lighter." Of these matters his diBinteruted friends do not inform the people. " Tecumseh Veeting," is advertised by the China, and Sir Charles Metcalf, Governor General fitorelteeporti in the iteddinc paper..

I am, and ever have been an unwavering democrat, and as ouch subscribed for the Globe," recently established in your place, in eider that I might know what was going on, and what measures were adopted for the good of the party. I was pleased to sec a call in said paper signed by Az.ax. Gwts chairman of the County Commit tee inviting the democracy to send delegates to a County Convention, to be held in Huntingdon, on „ Tuesday evening, the 9th of January" (last) "to select delegates to represent Huntingdon County in the democratic State Convention, &c &c." Well, the time came, and passed, and I heard that ouch Convention was held, and that the two gentlemen were appointed delegates to the 4th of March Con vention, but on looking over the "Globe" I found no notice whatever taken of the Convention, until two or three weeks after the time said Convention teas to meet, according to the call. A preamble and resolutions relative to the government of future County Conventions submitted by Thaddeus Banks, Esq., were published in that paper, but no notice was given of any other proceedings. Such being the state of the case, diversity of opinion prevails in OUT township, one party says, that a Convention was held, which most unanimously discharged its duties, and for the truth of their declaration refer to the township delegates, both of whom fully sustain them; another party says that the Convention did not meet, and in evidence of their opinion refer to the "Globe," which does not contain any notice of its proceedings, they say that the t Mho" pledgeit itself, in its opening address, "to uphold the dele gate system," to sustain "all its" (the democratic party,) "regular nominations," to rebuke "every factious ntovement, from what ever source it may come, sit ;" and that of course a paper thuspledged would not attempt to STIFLE the voice of the rep resentatives of the people. Now, sir, I wish to know from you, as you were on the spot, and of course, know all about it, being an Editor, whether such Convention was held, and whether delegates were appointed. I cannot think, until I hear so frotn some one disinterested, that a paper claiming to be democratic, and dependant upon the party for its support, would thus deliberately set up its opin ion, in opposition to the voice of the democracy, and in doing so violate its solemn contract mode with its subscriberswhen they gave it their support. BARREE. For lhe "Journal." Washingtonian Lecture No. G. On Saturday evening of last week, the 6th lec ture in the course was delivered by J. SEWELL STE wA str, Esq. The subject was " Public Opin ion," and a snore than ordinally large audience at tended, end listened with pleasure to the speaker, who forcibly and ardently, illustrated what public opinion was—showed that it was not the frenzy of a mob, but that it was the well digested, and firmly expressed sentiments of the majority. The hearers were highly gratified ; and gave evidence that each succeeding lecture, increased the zeal in our good Nor can I close this brief and imperfect notice without expressing my thanks to the Ladies, for their presence and smiles of approval, for without them, "what is there here to cheer one"—among whom we saw many from abroad ; and it gives me pleasure to see our fair friends, at home and abroad, thus encouraging their friends of the other sex, in their "labors of love." And I earnestly solicit their continued assistance, in carrying on this work of moral reform. A. Printer's Investigation. The committee appointed to inquire into the al leged frauds in the election of State Printers, final ly closed its labors, and reported to each branch of the Legislature on Wednesday last. The committee reported the testimony taken only, so that the whole subject is now again in the hands of the two bran ches, and will no doubt undergo another thorough discussion before it is finally settled. In the House 2000 copies of the testimony were ordered to be printed. Calhoun Withdrawn. The Charleston papers of tile 29th ult., contain a long Address from John C. Calhoun to his politi cal friends and supporters, assigning his reasons for not permitting his name to go before the proposed Convention, to be held in Baltimore in May next. The Charleston Courier says that between Mr. Van Buren and Mr. Clay, John C. Calhoun will main tain an armed neutrality. Want of time and space permit us merely to mention the above fact to-day. tCr During the year 1843 there were 304 vessels lost at sea--61 of which belonged to Great Britain. There were also several others of which we have no account, except that they were passed at sea, and have never since been heard from. To the above we are pained to add that six hun dred and forty-two lives have been lost. Ten ves sels have been reported as missing, whose crews it is to be feared have all perished. cd. Sir H. Pottinger, British Plenipotentiary in Venusylvania Legislature. The Harrisburg Inteltigencer of the 2d inst. says —The Legislature have been in session precisely one month to-day, and although a similar body, per haps, never assembled under a more imperious sense of duty to enter at once upon the transaction of the important business confided to them, we aver with out the fear of any one daring to contradict our statement, that for all the good interests for which they assembled, a tea-table coterie of old women could have done more good in a single afternoon, than they have accomplished in all this time. Nay, we will go further, and say that up to the present, their humbug legislation—so far from proving in the slightest degree beneficial to the Commonwealth, has actually operated adverse to its interests—that so far from having done any thing to retrieve onr sinking credit, they have but plunged us deeper in the mire—so far from having advanced one step to retrieve our honor, they have branded the Com monwealth with a more scathing disgrace if possi ble than that which before marked it for the sneers and scorn of the civilized world. What have our Solons' done during the past month—what mighty interests of the Common wealth have received their grave consideration I' Tell it not upon the mart where our credit is alrea dy the jest of every stock-jobber—proclaim it not to the world, in whose eyes we are already branded with disgrace and infamy—whispor it not within the precincts of Bond street where our dishonored State bonds are the subject of writhing sarcasm and bitter jest—a tehole month has been wasted—liter ally wasted in hypocritical whinings about " re trenchment atl4 reform !—retrenchment that may justly be styled a most reckless profligacy—a reform that is calculated but to plunge us deeper in the mire of disgrace. The present is styled par-excellence—a " Re trenchment and Reform Legislature."—"Retrench ment and Reform !"—Heaven save the mark! To give the people of Pennsylvania an idea of the kind of "retrenchment and reform" that their represen tatives prate about so much and care so little, we would inform them that one half the time already wasted, has been occupied in discussing the merits of the most trifling propositions. When the peo- ' pie are told that at IeastTWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS have been wasted in the bare DIS CUSSION of party measures, they will be better enabled to judge what is meant by this favorite text for Legislative Buncombe speeches, and perchance they will not have quite so exalted an opinion of those of their representatives, who having no per sonal popularity of their own, are compelled to re sort to the most contemptible and hypocritical ex pedients to attain that consideration which they can never hope to reach in any other way—most of them being lamentably destitute of those high-min ded and honorable Rrinciples by which men of ster ling worth and integrity never fail to acquire the confidence and respect of the people. A matter which has already cost ten times more than it con ever, by any possibility, come to, is the 4 , Printing Question," and the results growing out of it. It has been usual, heretofore, for each House to elect three printers to do the public work, but so flagrant were the abuses and so vexeilous the diffi culties arising from this system, that nearly the whole time of the Legislature was occupied in de vising a means to remedy the evil. At length, after being repeatedly thwarted by the Executive, a bill was passed by the aid of the Whigs, and received the signature of the Governor, providing for the election of Stale Printers to do the work in the English and German languages, and under its wholesome provisions certain gentlemen wore dully elected for the ensuing three years. This was fond ly hoped would settle for a time at least all the dart collies, vexations and abuses which had occupied so much of the time of preceding Legislatures, and leave the representatives of the people for the next three years free to attend to the legitimate duties for which they were to assemble. It chanced, however, that the persons chosen State Printers, were not such as to please His Excellency, the Governor, and inasmuch as by the law he was required Co approve the bond, he abused the ministerial duty confidsd to him, and made use of a contemptible quibble to treat the election as if it had never been held.— , Charges of bribery and corruption were gravely promulgated by one who is admitted on all hands, to be himself the most corrupt and unprincipled demagogue that ever betrayed a party, or disgraced a State ; and the Legislature, instead of rebuking the Executive interference, and treating the impu tations which had been cast upon their body, with a proper contempt, very gravely constitute a commit tee of Investigation, which after putting the Com monwealth to a greater expense than the printing itself would have amounted to for the whole session, elicited nothing but what was well known at the time the election was held, and what has since been the subject of common conversation. The main object for which the Legislative and Executive Departments of our government were constituted, was to make laws for the promotion of the general good—which, once solemnly enacted, it is the duty of the Executive to see that they are faithfully executed. Had he attended to his duty in a proper manner, the Legislature at the opening of the Session, would have had all the important documents printed and laid on their desks, and they could at once have entered upon the discussion of those important matters which so imperiously de , mond their attention. Had this been done, we are persuaded the firet of February would not have been permitted to pass without some action upon those momentous questions, which should properly have first claimed the attention of the people's represen tatives. What, we should like to know, do the great body of the people care who are elected the officers of the Senate or House--clerks, doorkeepers, sergeant-at-arms or printers, so that their duties are faitkfuliy performed? What matters it to them whether these officers are Whigs, or Locofocos-- Tyler men, or Porter men 1 Suppose that combi nations calculated to influence the votes of members of the last Legislature did exist, what security have the people that more powerful combinations—com binations with the grant dispenser of patronage and pardons, David it. Porter, himself at their head, do not now exist, and are not now exercising the whole weight of their influence upon the members of the present body? Are the members of this Legisla ture more pure and incorruptible than those of last year How aro the people to know that a system of bribery and corruption is not even now going on that will require to be investigated by the next Le gislature These are plain, common sense ques tions that must occur to every one. How absurd then was it to make such an ado about nothing, put the Commonwealth to an expense of thousands of dollars, and postpone the legitimate business for which they assembled, to follow up the vague and indefinite charges of the Executive in the manner they have done? We trust that tlte members of the Legislature, and especially the Whig members—the great body of whom we know to be governed by the moat honorable and high minded principles, and who scorn an alliance with any thing that is mean and contemptible—will frown down the attempts that have been made to waste the whole time of the session is gravely discussing the two-and-sixpence measures, while those more important provisions for the maintenance of our credit are unattended to. The people are in favor of " retrenchment and re form"—a retrenchment of the time of their legisla tors to the legitimate business for which they have assembled, end a reform of the flagrant usurpations and corrupt and unprincipled abuses which for the last four or five years have disgraced the Executive department of government. Let them apply the corrective to these flagrant abuses in high quarters and the smaller ones will follow in the natural course of things. From Mexico. By the arrival of the brig Lime Rock, on the 18th ult. ? at New Orleans, files of Mexican papers to the 30th December, wore received by the Dee.— Santa Anna had issued a decree expelling from the Californians and New Mexico all Americans, citi zens of the United States; but that our minister, General Waddy Thompson, had remonstrated so warmly on the subject, declaring that in case of its enforcement he would immediately demand his pass port, that the decree was revoked within 24 hours after its promulgation. Another version is that Mr. Thompson declared that if the decree was not fulfilled, he would quit Mexico, with or without his passport. However this may be, the principle fact may be considered as positive. It is stated that the decree had been pro mulgated under the influence or extreme mental irritation caused by the reception of President Ty ler's Message in the city of Mexico. It is rumored that Gen. Thompson has changed his views in regard to his resignation, and intends Isimply asking for a temporary leave of absence. The Mexican schooner Montezuma left Vera Cruz on the 26th ult., for Campeachy, having on board the Commissioners of Youcatan,—who were on their return, after having settled all existing trou bles to the satisfaction of both parties. Much excitement prevailed at Vera Cruz about the period of the departure of the Lime Rock, on account of rumored quarrels between Mexico and Great Britain. From Texas. Our Into files of New Orleans papers contains news from Texas to the 17th ult. Hoffmeister, who was sentenced to be hung at the last term of the District Court at Galveston, has been pardoned by the President. The injunction of secrecy having been removed, publication has been given to an interesting message from President Houston, communicated to the Sen ate on the 22d December. It paints in deplorable colors the situation of the Texian navy, traces its history for the last twelve months, contends that it has proved inefficient and cannot be supported in the present crippled condition of the financies of the i Government, and finally recommends the dismant ling of the Navy and the sale of the vessels com posing it. This message was followed by a bill to authorize the sale of the ship Austin, the brigs Wharton and Archer, and the schooner San Ber nard. An important bill was before Congress at the iciest accounts, entitled, An Act concerning the re lease c,f captive Toxin's in Mexico. It provides that if certain information of the release of the Texian captives in Mexico, be not received by the President, on or before the first day of March, the Major General of militia is required to make a pub lic call for volunteers, to repair to his standard at some place designated, west of the Guadaloupe, for an offensive campaign against the towns and settle ments of the Mexicans, situated in the valley of the Rio Grande. It further provides that the army thus organized, shall endeavor to procure a sufficient number of Mexican prisoners, of the highest rank and consideration, to be held as hostages for the good treatment of the Texian captives; that the warfare shall be transferred to the Mexican soil; and that the Texian troops shall be supported and paid by confiscation of property and forcing could j butions. WomEN.—Perhaps a more just or beautiful corn• pliment was never paid to woman, than the follow. ing from Judge Story : "To the honor, the eternal honor of the sex, be it said, that, in the path of duty, no sacrifice is with them too high or too dear. Nothing is with them impossible, but to shrink from what love, honor, innocence and religion require. The voice of plea sure or of power may pass by unheeded, but the voice of affliction never. The chamber of the sick, the pillow of the dying, the vigils of the dead, the altar of ;'religion, never missed the presence of the sympathies of woman. Timid though she be, and the winds of heaven may not too roughly visit her, on such occasions she loses all sense of danger, and assumes a pertenatural courage which knows not and fears not consequences. Then she displays the undaunted spirit which neither courts difficul ties nor evades them; that resignation which utters I neither murmurs nor regrets, and that patience in suffering which seems victorious over death itself. c:y. Out of every 100 children born in Man chester, 57 die before they reach five years of age ......and in Liverpool 54i. It is believed that a con siderable portion of these deaths arise from causes which night be prevented by efficient sanitary regulations. llAnnowrir.Ln, N. J., April 20, 1843. On or about the 13th day of October, 1841 , I was taken - with a violent pain in the side, near the liver, which continued for about five days, and was followed by the breaking of an ulcer, or abscess, inwardly, which relieved the pain a little, but caus ed me to throw up a great quantity of offensive mat ter, and also much blood. Being greatly alarmed at tins, I applied to a physician, but he said lie thought he could do but little for me except give me some Mercury Pills, which I refused to take, feeling satisfied that they could do me no good ; many oth er remedies were then procured by my wife and friends, but none did me any good-and the discharge of blood and corruption still continued every few I days, and at last became so offensive that I could scarcely breathe. I was also seized with a violent Cough, which at times caused me ro raise much more blood than I had done before—and my disease continued in this way, still growing worse, until February, when all hope of my recovery was given up, and my friends all thought I would die of a galloping Consumption. At this moment, when my life was apparently drawing near its close, I heard of Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, and got a bottle, which relieved me immediately ; and, by the use of only three bottles of this medicine, all my pains were removed—my cough and spitting of blood and corruption entirely stopped, and in a few weeks my health was so far restored as to enable the to work at my trade, (which is a carpenter,) and up to this lilac I have enjoyed good health.
