THE JOURNAL. 41 - (SOAVIIIIT PIIIINCIPLIS+6tIPPOR/211 0 BY TIMTII.I HUNTINGDON, PA. Tuesday Morning, June 11, 1850. TERMS: The "HONTINODON JOURNAL" is published at ra3 following rates, viz $1,75 a year, if paid Avanee ; $2,09 if paid during the year, and $ if not paid until after the expiration of th, year. The above terms to be adhered to in ali eases. Na suS,scription taken for less than six months, end no paper discontinued until all arrearages ore paid, unless at the option of the publisher. Auditor's Notices. On account of the clifticulties heretofore ex perienced in collecting pay for publishing Audi tor's Natio., we have determined to insert none hereafter unless paid in advance, or the pay ment is assum.d by some responsible person. Our charge is $1,25 Neva Advertisements. PRIRRTAL & Boom have opened their new store, and are already doing a rushing business. The "Elephant" is attracting large homes, and we advise all to go and see him. Nur & MILLER are keeping up the "Excite ment" in their line of business, by the low pri eas of their Clocks, Watches, Jewelry, &c. SPEER & IRONS have opened an extensive store at Bridgeport, below Mill Creek. They are young men of enterprise and good business quail firations, and deserve encouragement. SOHN GARNER, Jr., is recommended for nom trj the Whig Co. Convention, for Sheriff: Valuable Hotel fee Sale. It will be seen by an advertisement in another column, that Mr. Tuoatas WALLACE offers his well known “Washington Hotel" for sale. This is a valuable property, and affords an opportu nity to any one wishing to go into the business of keeping a public house, rarely to be met with. The house is now doing a fine business, a- d from its superior advantages in point of location, will doubtless do a largely increased business in the future. 050" . The answer of "Plebs" to the criticism of "Patres," although well written, and entirely unobjectionable in point of language and style, is quite too long. "Brevity is the soul of wit," and as articles of this kind do not possess general interest, we will have to insist on their being condensed into much smaller space. If "Plebs" will compress his article into about one-fourth the space of the communication before us, we will cheerfully publish it next week. The Venu , a. Railroad. The Cars have commenced making ;eir regu lar trips to Huntingdon. The first Locomotive arrived here on Thursday last. On Friday the passenger trains commenced their regular trips to this place, where for some time they will connect with the Packet Boat and Stage Lines. The Cars arrive in Huntingdon at 3 and 8 o'clock P. M., and leave at I and 8 o'clock, A. M., for the East. The arrival of the first Locomotive, as may be supposed, created quite a sensation. Look Out. We advise our citizens generally, young and old, to avoid standing on the railroad, or getting into the cars when the Locomotive is moving. We have known the most serious accidents to occur to persons standing on the track behind the train, tyy the motion of the Locomotive be• ing suddenly reversed. The safest plan is not to steml on the track. Several accidents occurred during tit, past week, with a hand car. Mr. Fox, an engineer, received a severs injury by this car running off the track. Anil a person intoxicated had his toes cut off and his foot otherwise badly injured. On 'Sunday last, Mr. Win, Hight had his foot se verely injured by having it caught in the turn round, below town. Fire Our citizens were aroused from their slum bers about 1 o'clockon Friday night last, by the alarming cry of fire. It proved to be the dwel ling of Mr. David Long. in the neighborhood of the Jail, which was entirely consumed, the fire having gained too much headway before the ar rival of the ci:izens, to be arrested. The night bing calm and damp, the fire was prevented from spreading to the adjoining property. Mr. Long's furniture was saved, and we understand he has a small insurance on the house. The fire originated from a light'd candle, which, as is supposed, fell against a bed. Great caution snould be observed by those having occasion to use night lights. State Senator. Personally, we care linTlitTlefrom which of the three counties of this district the Whig can didate lei State Senator is taken, so that a good man, with the proper qualifications, is selected. Nevertheless, we utterly deny that Blair county is in any way specially entitled to the candidate. The district has just been formed, and we con tend that the three counties stand on a perfe.•t equality, in this respect. Huntingdon, having the largest population, it would seem but fair should have the first candidate, and on this ground nay possibly present and urge the claims of one of her citizens. Certain we are that she will not concede the candidate to Blair county, as matter of right. GC?' A special meeting of the Huntingdon Presbytery, to ordain Mr. Jaatas GRBISOS, of, this place, for the Ministry, will be held in the Pr , tehyterian church of this Borough, commen cing on to-morrow. L 7 Wm. B. Clark. Esq. has been nominated by the Whigs of Maryland, as their candidate fer Governor. From the name, we should judge that the norninatiot► was a pod one. The Locotoco Nominations. The State Ticket nominated by the Locofoco Convention at Williamsport, is considered the weakest ever placed before the people of Penn sylvania for their votes. This is admitted by many of the more considerate Locofocos them selves. Mr. Monattion, the candidate for Canal Com missioner, is a wealthy citizen of Montgomery county. He wane member of the last Legisla ture, but was never known even to make a sug gestion, much less originate a measure. He was a member of the Committee on Bunks, and a fellow-member of the same Committee informed us that he never knew so stupid and useless a man, who made any pretensions whatever, as this same Wat. T. MORRISON. He is totally unfit to take charge of the interests of the people, as Canal Commissioner. EPHRAIM Bssits, Esq., the candidate for Au ditor General, is a respectable citizen of Mifflin county, and is well known to many of our citi zens. It will not be pretended here that he has the qualifications which should be possessed to fill so important an office. Indeed he is emit ted to be totally incompetent. An old member of the Locofoco party of this district exclaimed, on hearing of his nomination, "Ephraim Banks for Auditor General I why he is nut fit for clerk in a Prothonotary'a office." And the editor of the York Republican, who knows him well, says he always thought Ephraim the smallest man in the State in comparison with his preten sions, except John B. Sterigere, of Montgomery. The office of Auditor General is one of great public importance, and we don't see where this nominee is to obtain the qualifications to fill'it, though to be sure he was once a schoolmaster, which ought to have made him acquainted with figures, and has since practised law, in which he cut no great figure. Nevertheless, notwith. standing their avowed hatred of special privile ges and chartered monoplies, we shall no doubt find the Locos going it with a rush for Banks at the ensuing elections. And next we have J. PORTER BRAWLZY, Esq. for Surveyor General. Now if we were to truthfully speak of this man's depravity, we would doubtless be charged with falsifying; for the people generally would hardly believe that such a walking mass of corruption could receive a nomination for a State office. He is one of the most debased and corrupt creatures that ev er held a seat in the Pa. Legislature. For the last three years he has been a member of the State Senate, anti it is notorious that he very frequently appeased in his seat in a state of in toxication. His other moral delimuencies are equally notorious, but of them we will not speak at this time. During the last memorable ses sion, he was considered the most corrupt among the many corrupt men who disgraced our State Capitol. He voted to increase the pay of the members after the expiration of the oneluindied . days, and to INCREASE THE SALARY OF THE OFFICE FOR WHICH HE HAS BEEN NOMINATED. How he received the nomina tion is an enigma to us. His own county in structed against him ; and previous to the meet ing of the State Convention, the Easton Argus, the Lorofoco organ of Northampton county, thus spoke of him "J. Porter Brawley, of Crawford county, is named by one or two newspaper correspondents for Auditor General. He would do very well for WHISKEY INSPECTOR. If the Demo cratic party wishes to prosper, it must nominate SOBER mid HONEST men—men of good moral character, Personally and politically. The Jackson Democrat, a Locofoco paper published at Bedford says: "That's the talk ! Besides. Brawley Acts teen repudiated by the Democracy of hie own county, aad is connected with the ROTTEN FACTION headed by J. E. M'Farland. of Crawford county, sufficient TO SINK ANY HONEST MAN!— Both are exceeiiinglyfisAy politicians." Our friend 13ratton, of the Carlisle Volunteer, (a railicalLocoloco paper) speaks in high terms of Morrison and Banks, but ' , knowing Brawley well," dares not praise, and seems afraid to blame. Hence he announces the nomination to his readers in the following laconic manner : "For Surveyor General the Convention nomi nated J. Potter Brawley, of Crawford county. We know Mr. B. very well. For the last three sessions he represented his county in the State Senate." Yes, the editor of the Volunteer "knows Brew ley very well." He knows that he was one of the Porter faction who, in the spring of 1843, defeated him for State Printer, when he was the regular candidate of his party ; and not satisfied with that, personally abused him in the House, in a speech which was considered at the time exceedingly coarse and vulgar. The' editor of the Volunteer also knows that this same Brew ley turned Tyler man, and received as his price a fat government contract. And if he Would only tell the Democracy of old Cumberland all he knows about 13rawley, we venture the pre diction that they would bolt from their candidate for Surveyor General. Such is a brief but truthful description of the Locofoco State Ticket. Will the people endorse it by their votes 7 We shall see ! The School Law. It appears that the changes in the School Law, spoken of in an article published in the Journal of May 28, never passed both /louses. And to correct the wrong impressions which thut arti cle has doubtless created, we publish the fol lowing extract of a letter from A. L. RUBBED, Esq., Superintendent of Common Schools, as follows : "The only changes in the School Law of 1849 made by the Legislature at its lust session, are the rep,al oi so much of the 16th section an pro hibits the admission of scholars over 21 years of of age and reducing the minimum period, fixed by the 22d section, for keeping schools in ope ration, to three months." Etarlinder the new Apportionment law the Return Judges of the 15th Senators& District are to meet in the Court House at Hollidays burg; and the return Judges of the Representa tive District at the Court House inHuntingdon. AN EDITOR TURNIP PREACWIR.-Mr. EDWIN W. BUTTER, former editor of the Lancaster In telligeneer, was licensed to preach the gospel by the German Lutheran Synod, of this State, at it. recent session at Pottsville. SENATOR COOPER. In a private letter to gentleman of Philadel phia, dated Washington, June 2, and published in the Daily News, those who have dared to call in question Mr. Senator Cooper's course, are cautioned to beware how they assail him.— The writer says that "Mr. Cooper is not the man to submit to be the creature of circumstan ce• at every step." Indeed ! The Sena'or bears his crest proudly since he is secure in his place, and beyond the reach of those who gave him his power. We recollect well when he was willing to be "the creature of circumstances." Yes, when he and his friends were begging his election to the Senate, we heard nothing but the most honied words and the most lavish promises of loyalty to the will of the Whig party. No threats were used than. M. Cooper' was then emphatically "the creature of circumstances." And had it been known that he would use his Senatorial office to disorganize, rather than build up, the Whig party, "circumstances" would have consigned him to tl.at obscurity which his subsequent conduct has shown he so justly mer ited. Had it not been for the labors of Wm. F.' Johnston, our glorious Whig Governor, and the all-powerful twine of Old Zack, the Whigs would not hove bad the power in 18441 to elect Mr. Cooper, or any one else, to the U. S. Senate.— And yet, notwithstanding Mr. Cooper owes his election to the labors of the one, and the foray of the other, he has on no occasion shown a disposition to mill ort the administration of either. On the other hand, he did all he could before leaving the Legislature, to embarrass and aid the Locolocos to "head" the State Admin istration- Failing signally in this, we hail hoped he would repent and give a cordial support to our honored and worthy Whig President. Has he done so I No! He has been active In op posing the nominations made by the Adminis tration, and is now opposing the plan of the President for the settlement of the California and Territorial question, and lending his sup port to the Clay Compromise, which is condemn ed by an overwhelming majority of the Whig freemen of Pennsylvania. But in conclusion, this writer, who undertakes to threaten the Whigs on Mr. Cooper's behalf, says "Mr. Cooper has still some lively feelings for the interest of Pennsylvania. Therefore, let all who will, take heed and understand." 'rid., we suppose, is to be interpreted thus If the Whigs of Pennsylvania dare to call Mr. Cooper to account for misrepresenting them on the slavery question, he will also desert them on the Tariff question, abandon the interests of Pennsylvania entirely, and go over body and soul to the enemy. A Strong Ticket. Several Whigs have joinedin recommending the following gentlemen to the consideration of the Whig State Convention : For Canal Cornntiseioner—Cmuttss C. SvL• LIVAN, of Butler county. For Auditor General—lion. J'AM29 POLLOCK, of Northumberland county. Fur Surveyor Genera[-Rousivr M. BAIR D , of Berke county. These gentlemen are well known throughout the State. Mr. Sullivan was at one time a mem ber of the State Senate, and is known as the father of various reform measures, which have saved to the tax payers thousands of dollars an nually. Mr. Pollock is eminently qualified, and one of the most popular men in Pennsylvania. Mr. Baird is a practical Surveyor, a gentle. man of high standing for honesty and integrity ; and universally esteemed by all who know him. We verily believe this ticket would sweep he State, if placed before the people by the Philadelphia Convention. Finances of the state: The Auditor General and State Treasurer have made a report on the subject of the Finan ces of the State, for the fiscal year commencing oil the lot of June next. From this document it appears that the finances of Pennsylvania are in the most flourishing condition—that after paying the appropriations of the two last ses sions, amounting each to more than four ?nil. lions of dollars, and applying the money be longing to the sinking fund, there will be left in the Treasury, after paying the annual interset, $26,788 32. This will allow, they say, the ap plication of $250,000 towards the completion of the North Branch canal, without any increase of the State Debt, and without embarrassment to the Treasury in the payment of appropria tions to other objects. The people of the State and of the country at large, remarks the Telegraph, cannot but be gratified by a contrast of this condition of the Treasury, with that exhibited a few years ago. Then, the annual interest was not regularly paid—the stocks depreriated—the people groan ing slider taxation and, in consequence, public and private prosperity under a cloud. The pres ent and future prospect is most cheering. This result ought not to pass without render ing credit to the present Executive department of the Government. Gov. JouNs.rox is entitled to gratitude for his efforts to create a sinking fund, and his labors to resuscitate the Treasury; and Mr. BALL, the late State Treasurer, is not. to be forgotten among the gratuilations felt by the people. Justice also requires that proper credit should be rendered to the present Auditor General, for the industry and ability he has dis played for several years past, in the management of that important department of the finances, the result of which is now felt by the people. CONGRESS it is generally understood, will not adjourn before the let of October. A long ses sion and warm work. Our paper of this week does not contain the usual summary, but the fact is, nothing of general interest has transpired, members being engaged in discussing the only matter which seems worthy of their attention-- Slavery. FOURTH DISTRICT, Muss.—The complete re turn from the fourth district of Massachusetts shown that Mr. Pa'fry falls short of an election just 500 votes. The vote stands for Thompson, W., 4581 ; Palfrey, F. S., 4070, and 809 scat tering. LOCOFOCO STATE CONVENTION, Bribery and Corruption. This body met at Williamsport on Wednes day the 29th ult., and after three days session, in which there was no little excitement and management, between the three different seg ments of the party, accompanied with high charges of "bribery and corruption," made the following nominations: Canal Commissioner—Wm. T. Morrison, of Montgomery county. Surveyor General--J. Porter Bromley, Craw. ford county. Auditor General.—Ephraim Banks, of Mifflin county. Twenty-six ballotings were had before the first nomination was accomplished. It was finally made on the afternoon of the third day of the Convention. The principal candidates were Edward B. Robley, Nimrod Strickland, Franklin Vanzant, Seth Clover and Wm. T. Morrison. Vanzant received 23 votes on the first ballot, and increased to 37 on the 21st ballot. Morrison received but few votes till the 20th ballot, which gave him 42, and the next trial showed a majority for him. In the evening of the second day, a great com,notion wa created by a member leaking out n seeret— that two of the members had been BRIBED ! The members referred to, thinking it best to make u clean breast of it, came forward and dis gorged—one of them to the tune of $BO, and the other $lOO, which they threw down upon the table before the President, with quite a parade of virtuous indignation at the idea that they . could be bribed! The nomination of the other candidates was made without much delay. The following extract from a letter dated Wil liamsport, May 30, gives the following account of the Bribery and Corruption alluded to above: "Mr. Johnson, of Lancaster, then rose and stated to the Convention that Bribes had been oth•red to the delegates to obtain their votes, and charged that corruption of the grossest kind could be provud against certain individuals, whom he did not nano-. Upon being pressed to do so, he referred to Mr. Donahue, of Philadel phia county, to substantiate his atatement, when the delegate °Boiled to appeared before the con vention and threw down upon the table,in front of the President, eighty dollars, saying "there the money is, I despise it." Another delegate, Mr. Green, also from Philadelphia county, an nounced aloud that he had received one hundred dollars from the same source. These statements threw the Convention into the utmost confusion and excitement, and a motion to appoint a COM mitten to investigate the whole matter, was a dopted without objection," On the following day the committee reported tilt Messrs. Renken and Ovenshipe, of Phila delphia, were the pereons who had bribed the delegates. Ovenshine is an old State Robber, who made himself rich on the Columbia Rail Road during• Porter's administration, and Ran ken we do not know. Before adjourning, the bribed and unbrihed delegates joined in the adoption of resolutions sustaining the slavery Baltimore Platform, to which we think a large portion of their party will take decided exception. Tremendous Whig Rally. An immense and most enthusiasti: mass meet ing of the friends of the National and State Ad ministrations was held at the Chinese Saloon, Philadelphia, on Monday evening, June 3, which was addressed by the Hon. Joseph 11. Ingersoll Hon. Joseph R. Chandler, Hon. Charles Gibbons and others. A series of able and patriotic res olutions were passed. The North American says "The meeting was a glorious one for the Whigs of Philadelphia —a proud evidence of her reeling, and a mani- fratation most honorable to those in whose hon or and support it was convened. It was a heart stirring and convincing testimony that the Whigs of Philadelphia• are as one man in their political faith, and that they have an unfaltering reliance on the ability and purity .of President Taylor and Governor Johnston." Nashville Disunion Convention. We learn that the Southern Convention for the purpose of considering the subjects of Sla very and Disunion, assembled at Nashville, on the 3,1 inst., and organized by appointing Wm. L. Sharker, of Mississippi, President; Gov. M'Dowell, of Georgia, Vice President; Wm. F. Cooper and E. G. Eastman, of Nashville, Sec retaries. The attendance of Delegates is comparatively slim. The Southern States are not all repre tented. It is said that Mr. Clay's Compromise will not be sanctioned by the Convention; and that Gen. Taylor's plan of settling the Slavery question will be denounced .most burharouslv.' Let the Disunionists go ahead, and commit some overt act, and they will soon find where "Old Zack" is. The Census Law tor MO. This law has been published, and is very com prehensive. The information which it proposes to embrace includes population, profession, col or occupation, place of birth, number of mar riages, deaths, the persons who can read and write, deaf, dumb, blind, insane, slaves, fugitive and manumitted, the acres of land improved and unimproved, the cash value of each farm, the value of farming implements and machienery, the live stuck, the produce during the year en ding June 1, 1850, and the quantity of each par ticular article; the products of industry sail the values; names of towns, counties and cities; the aggregate valuation of real and personal es tate, the amount of taxes assessed, the number and character of the public schools, the extent of public libraries ; the number, class and cir culation of the periodicals and newspapers; the number of criminals; the cost of labor, the av erage price of board to a laboring man per week, the average payment of a carpenter per day, the average wages of a day laborer, the average wages of a farm hand, the number and value of the churches, and indeed every species of social statistics which can make those kind of tables valuable as sources of public information and reference. 87 - Mr. Edmund Burku has retired from the editorship of the Washington Union. New Coins. A bill on this subject, presented to the U. S. Senate a few days since, by Mr. Dickinson, con taining provisions which will be greatly promo tive of general convenience and comfort. It di rects the coinage of one cent pieces; to be ohe tenth silver and nine tenths copper, and to weigh twenty grains. It also directs the coinage of three cent pieces, to be composed of three fourths silver and one fourth copper, and to weigh twelve and three eighths grains ; the de vices to be conspicuously different from those of the other silver coins. A peculiarity is attached to this one piece, that it is to be procured at the mint only let ezehanya for small Spanish money (fips, levies and quar ters,) at there current value, and not by weight, as also for some few other denominations of for eign silver com current among us. This provis ion (justly remarks the Philadelphia Bulletin) will certainly clear the country of the worn out and irregular currency, long since become a plague and nuisance, and often a cause of con tention amongst dealers, For the Huntingdon Journal. Candidate for Senator. Mr. CLARK :--As the time is drawing nenr when it will be necessary to put in nomination candidates for the different offices to be filled at the ensuing election, permit me, through the columns of your paper, to present the name of JOSEPH HIGGINS, Esq., of Blair county, as a suitable person to represent this Senatorial district, consisting of Huntingdon, Blair and Cambria counties, in the Legislature for the en• suing three years. Mr. Biggins is identified with the Agricultural and Maninacturing inter ests of the district, and is well qualified to rep resent them. Via. THE MARKETS. PHILA. June 7. 1850.

On the 4th inst., in Penn Township, Mrs. MARGARET ENTREKIN, aged 72 years. [From the Lewistown Democrat.] Departed this life on the 25th inst., about 0 o'clock P. M., at his residence in this borough, Rev. JACOB Genesis, of the Baltimore Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, aged 72 years, 2 months and 22 days. The subject of this brief notice has been long and favorable known as a laborious and faithful watchman on the walls of Zion. He entered the ministry in the Spring of 1800, and has con tinued to labor in the vineyard of his Master w.th almost unparalleled zeal and industry Inc flay years, without an intermission of four con secutive week, at any onetime lurmg that whole period. Hie sound and vigorous constitution— which he never allowed to become impaired by any needless self influlence—enable him to per form a vast amount of work, and endure great fatigue and exposure in different climates, at all seasons and in all kinds of weather. He preach ed on an average from 250 to 300 sermons annu ally, besides doing the work of a faithful pastor and vigilant overseer of the souls under his charge. It may well be said that he was a sin gular and extraordinary man. Singular as well for his strength and originality of trued, energy I of character, depth of piety prodigious labors, power of endurance and extensive usefulness, as for the abstemiou.ness, simplicity, economy and regularity of his life. He out-lived, out-labor oil and out-suffered most of his cotein poraries.— Although good health smiled upon him fur halt a century, yet during the past three months his sufferings were extreme. A lir w, trying and painful season this—yet he passed through it with christian firmness and resignation. He anticipated his approaching dessolution with great composure, and joyfully awaited the sum mons of his Lord, front a couch of pain to a crown of glory. The hour came and round Imo ready to meet it; his work done, his suffering ended, he tell asleep in the arms of his Redeem er, and was gathered to his fathers, to author and die no more. "Servant of God—well done; Rest from thy loved employ; The battle's fought—the viet'ry's won— Enter your Master's joy." Thus has fallen one of the oldest and most faithful ministers of the Gospel. The loss will be keenly felt, not only by his surviving compan ion and relat , ons, but by the church of his choice and the community in general, who have been greatly benelitted by his labors and liberality.— Though dead, yet his name and example will live in the memory oh thousands; and in the great Judgement, many will rise up and call him blessed. May the Gull of all grave sustain sup port and comfort the afflicted widow, and cheer her lonely pathway, till she shall overtake her sainted husband in the church triumphant. B. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
