U. S. Senator for two years ensuing, in place of
Hon. I. . Bates, deceased.
Tarcrwo Cans or ins ows Houssuotn.—The
Governor has appointed his heather-in-law, JOHN
K. FIDDLET, Esq. of Lancaster, a Judge of the
District Court of Philadelphia, in the room of Judge
STROUD, one of the ablest Judges in the State and
the best on that bench. The appointment is very
unfavorably received in the city, and a meeting of
the members of the bar has been held to remonstrate
. against it. Judge Stroud appears to be so unfortu
male as to be a V 1 hig, and the Governor thinks this
a fine opportunity to provide for a member of his
own household, and at the some time revArd a po
litical favorite for past, and perhaps future, party
services. Judges Petit and Jones, both Locofoco,

assault he received a letter which perfectly satisfied
Lim that Sangster did not commit the assault with
any malicious intention; and he freely forgave him;
hoping that as far .ris be was personally concerned,
that no punishment night 1w inflicted. The Court,
however,seatenced hint to thirty days' confinement
in the county jail, and to pay a fine of $lOO. The

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS-MORE DAMA•
AGES FOR THE STATE TO PAY.
The Columbia, Pe., Spy says, the passenger
car did not arrive here on Thursday until four or
five hours after the usual time, owing to a serious
crash occasioned by the passenger cars running in
to a train of burthen cars, and breaking four or five
cars, belonging to D. Leech & Co., all to atoms.—
We understand that there were Revers! boxes of
specie in one of the ears, which were broken open,
and the specie scattered over the road.
Another--Yesterday morning as a train of bur
then cars were coming down • the grade' into town
at a very rapid rate, it run over a horse which was
about crossing the road, throwing the train off the
track, and precipitating part of it over a slight em
bankment, breaking in the front of a store house be
longing to Peter Haldeman, Esq., and the other
part directly across our principal street. A four
sectibri boat was completely demolished, and four
trucks belonging to the State, ditto. Although
several men were on the cats at the time of the col
lision, not one of them was seriously injured .$
Shocking Accident.
We learn front the Hollidaysburg Register that
a most shocking accident occurred et the Basin in
that place on Tuesday the Ist inst., by which a
fellow being was instantly hurried into eternity.
It is unnecessary to describe the circumstances Mi
nutely: suffice it to say that the unfortunate indi
vidual, Mr. Levi Trine, conductor of a train of coal
cars, by some means lost command of his cars its
they turned oil the main track on to a side track
which terminates abruptly in the basin, and that
he was on the front car, when it pitched °tithe track
into the water and was caught beneath the car fol •
lowing and buried in the wreck, and thus crushed
and drowned. He leaves a wife and three or four
small children to mourn his untimely end, who
must now become objects of charity, and arc worthy
the kind attentions of the philanthropist.

arrival at Rio Gr<nide there were seventy
six on the sick list. including, the Ist
Lieutenant and Sailing Master. A cor

following interesiing particulars:

lie purchased it lot and had a licat para

railing on top. w ith a cross on each angle
and ill,: over the gateway, This preeau•
thin has been taken in order to setitire the
crown y trout any molestation on the part
of tile natives, who would tint pay the
least reverence to it were it not fur these
precautions. On the extremity of the

has a handsome head board, 101111 all epi•

There is a small foot board also with the
initials of the deceits, d's name on it ; the
Euglishinesi's graves weie taken in with
ours, and the head boatds rectified, as
the epitaphs were nearly illegible. The
boatswain of the Proble, Mr. Samuel
Drew, who laid out and sulierintentted the
plan tit the burying grounds, represented
to the Comohotlioe the necessity of hav

; and having the graves, avenue and
paths paved, to secure them from the in •
clemency of the season, which, While it

without intermission. The Conitntaloie

a subscription list made out, and every

their respective grades. As there was no

trines and principles of Loco Vocoisni—
e asked with some surprise, it lie cred
ited any such story with regard to the in
tentions and detertninations of ,2t. Polk.
lie hesitated, and then frankly confessed
his belief, that whatever theory F.ll. Polk
might have adopted at Nashville, Or be
rme he depot rd from Tennessee, he
would find himself so overwhelmed by
persuasions and threats, not do ett per
haps, but equally cogent, that lie would
be compelled, even against lciu better na
ture, not only to turn out hundreds of
lionest,.faltlii at, and capable officers, but
in tunny cases to supply their places with
partizans not so capable, becitu•e of their
experience, to say nothing of other qual
ifications. Thiti view ha. since been ful
Iv confirmed. The removals of last seek
were so nutnerotis, that at Washington it
was called the.' Bloody Week." Not
only men of tile very highest elthraeter
were removed, as in the case of the Hon.
John S. Skinner, but in some instances,
Tyler-men, who were absolutely dying,
as in the case of Reuben M. W liiinev.
Let us, therefore, hear no more of Polk
magnanimity or liberality, the Admin
istration is likely to be as proscriptive as
any that we have ever had in the country.
Kr The Madisonian is evidently an
noyed at the course pursued by President
Polk. In a leader in a recent number of
that paper, symptoms of strong disappro
bation are manifested. The truth is, the
Administration has determined to throw
Ty lerism overboard. The first blow was
at Mr. Cal , oun, and now, according tee
the e some of the particular
ft lends of the ex-secretary of State are to
sacrificed. The Madisonian says that

official says If it is to be the ofli•

limn% tate.es en from the Preside! t himself:
't•he Cabinet mould he regarded by th e
Globe men as the mere mercenary instru
ments of their pleasure, their cupidity,
and their revenge."
The removals of Mr. Skinner, Mr.
Penrose and Mr. Clark, are also advert
ed to in ternib of disapprobation ; while
the Mailisonian learns with pain that Ma
jor Lewis has also been decapitated ; as
well as Di. Jones, the Postmaster at
Washington. The troth is, Mr. Polk has
found it impossi!ile to gratify the Tyler
ites a• well as the anti-Tylerits and their
friends who are, or who desire to be in
office, and he has chosen the latter. The
result will lie opposition from the Callum,
and Tyler branch of the hi-retofore sop

The subject is followed up in the Mad
i.nni in of Mondry, in vn article headed
"Proscription ," Ih which ,nine broad
Iwo: are given to Ih Executive; and this
language occurs:
"During every Administration, all, or nearly all'
of the public offices of value become vacant by the
expiration of commissions; when vacant, they
should unquestionably be filled by the friends of the
President and members of the dominant party. Both
friends and foes, (political) when guilty of official
misconduct. should be dismissed, of course; but to
do so merely because their opinions do not accord
with those of the Executive, or for the purpose of
rewarding approved friends, is, we conceive, an act
of tyranny. in violation of the spirit of the Consti
tution, and repugnant to the nature of our Republi
can institutions."
