He says further— " I have been freduently asked by well-dressed men, with a knapsack on their back, for money on the road, and of one of thorn I got a deal of infor mation. There is also a custom among the me chanics, when they go from one town to another, and it in &recognized privilege of theirs, from time immemorial to ask assistance from passers by as they travel along, and at the towns they pass through ; and at every town there is a herherge,' as they call it, whore thb master of the inn, has agreed with the guild of that trade to lodge them at a very low rate: so that, when they arrive, they immedi ately ask for the tailor's or shoemaker's, &c., her bergs, and by that means can travel very cheaply.— A very had system, which was originally intended to give them an opportunity of improving them selves in the knowledge of their art, hut it is pecu liarly favorable to vagahondizing.

And yet you arc ravely told by men calling themselves Democrats, rhat this is the true democratic doctrine. Whether it is so or not I leave you to judge. I now pass on to Austria and Prussia. He says-- wander-schaft system of course prevails there, and most of the trades are supplied by the itinerant journeymen. A carpenter can earn from It. to 18. 6d. and even 18. Bd. per day, millwrights the same. In Northern Prussia, wages are not quite so high. Mechanics earn in towns front Is. 6d. to le. 10d. per day ; shoemakers, tailors, about 18.2 d.; common laborers in towns Is. in sum mer, and 9d. in winter; and in the country from bd. to Bd. Agricultural laborers, besides house rent, fuel, ancrsomethno half an acte of land, earn from bd. to 7d. per day. The food of the working dames in Prussia does materially differ from that of the Austrians, as it is described as follows: In the morning they eat soup, potatoes, or bread; for din ner vegetable or pudding; between dinner and sup per, bread ; supper, potatoes and milk, or soup; once or twice a week meat. In colt! weather, the titan would have a glass of inferior brandy before going to work in the morning. On Sundays, the men would hive a little beer or wine, and the women coffee, of which they are very fond. No wonder! for they don't get it often !

"A poor tailor in Sogua, whose business does not afford him the means, supports by day labor himself, his wife, and eight children, who, on ac count of their youth or attendance at school, can cant little or nothing, that is ten persons without incurring debts and without support of others, ex cept a few articles of clothing which are given them for presents. The work on which he is engaged is chiefly wood cutting and stump grubbing, by which he tams one day with another at the most, 24 kreutaers or 120 Coring per year, which in our money would be 16 cents per day, or 48 dollars per year.

These people taste meat, at the most, sometimes on Sundays, never wine or beer." There is one advantage in this kind of living, I presume; and that is this, that those who live on such food are not often troubled with dispepsia or gout. d Fatal Duel in Virginia, We learn theta duel was fought on Friday morn ing, about fl o'clock, in Virginia near the Chain Bridge. ne parties were a young lawer,Juiian May, sun of Dr. F. May, and a young student of medi cine, Joseph Cochrane, brother of John T. Coch rane, Esq., disbursing clerk of the War Depart ment—all of Washington city. They fought with rifles at fitly paces, an d upon the first fire, young Cochrane was shot in the forehead, and was, at the last accounts, lying in a farmhouse in the imme diate n"ighborhood, with no Hopes of his recovery. The Washington Standard says:—"' Dr. J. C• Hall hastened to the ground, immediately upon the receipt of thin intelligence, to render his surgical aid to the young unfortunate. Prom the various rumors and reasons afloat in the city on yesterday, in relation to this disastrous affair, we learn that it originated in a quarrel be tween a Mr. Ash, of Philadelphia, HO a Mr. Pool, of Georgia, in which Cochrane and May acted the friends of either party, and that they settled it with- out much difficulty. Growing out of this, a discus sion arose as to the bravery of each ; and, in the Nahum and heat of youth, without pausing to re flect upon consequences, a challenge was passed, a meeting arranged, and above is its lamentable ter- I urination. Thus has a young mar.. jag setting forth in the world. with the brightest prospects, been cut off in the flower of his youth, and the survivor—but we pauses—hfa own feelings and those of his family, Must by this time be sufficiently acute, without ad ding to these any remarks of ours.

Four or five years ago the Legislature erected the county of Clinton, to satisfy the Lock Haven Lor en, A comparison between that county and our own will serve to show the coot of 'new counties to the people. The expenses incurred in carrying on the affairs of small counties, whether old or new, are always higher in proportion than those of larger counties. It appears front the census of 1840 that there were at that ante 35,483 inhabitants in Huntingdon county, and 8,323 in Clinton. The published statements of the county commis sioner's show that in the year 1843 the tax levied, for county purposes, in Huntingdon county was $15,568 31, and in Clinton county $12,437 66. A rough calculation shows that the tax in Hun tingdon county is about 44 cents to each inhabi tant, while in the smaller county of Clinton it is about $1 50 to each inhabitant. It is apparent that the taxes in the small county are more than three times as high as those in the larger. Will the people look into this matter before they ask for new counties I 6:,:j" Ex-Senator James ilathers, Esq. has been appointed to represent Juniata county in the 4th of March Convention.

Last Saturday evening the people of Huntingdon were delightfully entertained and instructed by Lec ture No. 8, in course, delivered by GEOUGE TAT- Lon, Eoq Hid subject, " The responsibility of the Liquor Seller." was handled beautifully and forcibly. His arguments brought conviction, so that every one who heard him, must believe that liquor sellers, as such never do one particle of good to society, never aid in the support and welfare of the community, ne ver benefit any person but themselves! He distictly showed by proofs and , xamplcs cited, that the liquor sellers were the cause, directly or indirectly, of of least two thirds of the crimes which flood our land, and that, hi very deed and fact, they were murderers !—in this enlightened age, with the truth before them, murderers with malice aforethought!

The dwelling house of Dr. Lucien Spencer was discovered to be on fire about midnight, and Mrs. Spencer catching up her two youngest children, succeeded, with Dr. Spen cer, in making her way out of the homing tene ment. The screams of her other two children, who were still in their room, reached them where they stood, and Dr. Spencer, almost to a state of frenzy, dashed into the flame to save them—hut was him self consumed with them. A portion of the remain~ of Di. S. and one child have been recovered from the burning ruins, but of the other child no vestige remained. Madame Cetiline has addressed a letter to a I.eipsic Journal, denying emphatically the report that she is dead. She asks pathetically "What have I done to the Gorman Press, that they have now, for the fourth time, killed me ?" She adds, that at the age of 64, aho still retains good health, and lives in quiet retirement. Her letter is very plea- santly wrist on. The Murder Case, The Phila. U. S. Gazette of the 21st says: A boy about 15 years of age, named Gotleib Williams Jr., was yesterday taken into custody and brought to the Mayor's office, about 3 o'clock in the after noon, on a charge of killing a boy somewhat older than himself, named Peter Dcescher, by stabbing him in the back or side wills a butcher knife, in the High street market, near Second street. It appears that Williams was left by his father, Gotleib Williams, who is a pork butcher, to take charge of his stall. During his father's absence, he had a fight with the other boy. Scveial persons who were eye witnesses to the whole transaction, testified that after they had ceased lighting, some words passed between them ; Drescher then struck the prisoner in the face, when the latter ran to a stall, about eight feet distant from where they had I been standing, and taking up the knife, rushed up on his assailant, and inflicted the deadly wound.— The deceased was taken into a drug store, on the south side of Market street, where lie shortly after wards died. The prisoner was then brought to the Mayor's office, where a lengthy investigation of the facts of the case took place; after which he was committed for a further hearing this morning at 11 o'clock. The body of Drescher was conveyed to his place of residence in Third street, near Brown. The Coroner to-day will hold an inquest—having been prevented from doing so yesterday, from the atten dance of the witnesses at the hearing at the May or's office. Further (fearing of Goileib IVillionts, Jr.,— The Mayor at 11 o'clock on Wednesday, continued the hearing of Gotloib Williams, Jr., charged with the wilful murder of Peter Doescher. Alexander S. Rutherford testified that he saw the beginning of the affray. He says that Williams attemped to take some candy from the table of the deceased, when the deceased resisted, and the fight ensued as related in the paper yesterday. J. F. Hight testi. lied chat he thought Williams was going after a knife when he started, and he did not stop him, for fear he would stab him, as they were not friends.— The knife was taken from the stall with blood on it, by George noes, sobs gave it to one dale Mayor's officers, sod it was taken by him to the Mayor's office. Williams was committed (the Mayor decli ning to take bail) for further hearing. o — j - The last doubt removed!— ELlZA§irrwrow Iv, N.J., Feb. 20, 1843.
