Taa SMALL NOTE LAW.--A man was recently
prosecuted at Bristol, Bucks county, for passing
a note of less denomination than $5, contrary to
the laws of this State, and the magistrate fined
hint $25.
The Consequence may be.
The severe drubbing butcher Enynau received
in London it seems has had the effect to restore
him to favor with his sovereign, and as the North
American remarks in the following paragraph, may
lead to Infinitely snore Important consequences
Says the American—
Considering the proverbially small amount ofl
wisdom with which the world is governed, and the ,
little that small amount has to do with the ques
tions of peace and war, we may say it ought not
to be deemed a very surprising thing should the
late unlucky adventure of Gen. Ilaynaii with the
London brewers and coal-heavers lead to a sus- I
pension of pacific relations between Great Britain
and her ancient ally of Austria. Out of that slight
and somewhat iiircical divertisement may grow a
very serious and tragical play—a long piece in five
acts, the first being some retaliatory nonsense and
governmental affront on the part of Austria; the
second the sudden bombardment, by angry John,
of Venice and Trieste ; the third a renewal of the
Hungarian revolt, instigated and aided by England
in a way to render it terribly effectual and trium
phant; the fourth a general war in Europe marked
by all kinds of strange events and exciting vicis
situdes ; and the fifth the mutual ruin and perhaps
demolition of both empires.
The Man with the Wheelbarrow.
Our readers will doubtless be glad to bear from
"the man with the wheelbarrow." The Alta Cal
ifornia of August, 6, chronicles his arrival.
The Man with the Wheelbarrow, who has been
often noticed by emigrants who have seen him on
his way across the plains, arrived at Cotome,
about a week ago. He states that he got the Cal
ifornia fever, and as be had not the means to pur
chase a team, be loaded his wheelbarrow with 150
lbs. of provisions, besides his cooking utensils and
baggage, anti started from the States on his long
juurney. ile was able to make greater headway
than most of the teams, as he lost no time except
for his meals and sleep. When he arrived at Salt
Lake, he found an opportunity of joining a com
pany then almost starting ; so be lett his faithful
band carriage by the side of the road, and "on he
came a whistling." That man will make his pile.
Earthquake at Cleveland.
We find the following despatch iu the Buffalo
Express of Wednesday :
" A very severe shock of an earthquake was felt
in this place this morning about twenty minutes
past five o'clock, which lasted nearly two seconds
and then gradually died away. A very sensible
trembling could be felt by any person standing up
on the ground in Euclid, about eight miles east of
this city. The shock was sufficiently violent to
throw crockery from shelves. We also learn by a
gentleman from Berea, about twelve miles south
west, that the shock was sufficient to awaken per
sons from a sound sleep."
For the Huntingdon Journal.
The Poor nouie.
Mn. CLAIM :—The law passed last winter by
the legislature of Pennsylvania, authorizing the
♦voters of Huntingdon county to decide by ballot
fur or against the purchase of a fitrm and erecting
a house thereon for the poor, have voted at the
lagt election and by a handsome majority decided
in favor of the measure.
For the benefit of the public, an abstract of the
law as passed, will perhaps not be out of place at
this time.
The first section provides, that Thos. Fisher, K.
L. Green,Benjamin Leas, James Gillam, ohn
McCulloc, John Porter, Isaac Taylor, A. P. Wil
son, John Watson, Caleb Gicenland, S. Miles
Green be appointed commissioners whose duty it
shall he, or a majority of them, on or before the
first day of January 1851, to determine upon, and
purchase such real estate, as they shall deem ne
cessary for the accommodation of the poor.
The sixteenth section provides, that the County
Commissioners shall pay the commissioners ap
pointed by law, the expenses incurred by them in
the performance of their duty.
The eighteenth section provides, that the Sheriff
of the said county shall in due time notify the said
commissioners of their appointment, and when and
where they shall meet for entering upon their du
ties, assigned them by law, which place of meet
ing shall be as near the centre of the county as
possible.
This much desired law was passed through the
energy and unwearied exertions of a citizen, whose
feelings were prompted only, through charity and
benevolence, for the poor and unfortunate, hoping
that they would be supplied with the necessaries
of life in a land of plenty.
It is now expected that those upon whom the
remaining linty devolves, will speedily exert them
selves :Ind devote a small portion of time to the
duties required, and he the instruments in the hands
of an allwise Providence to provide for the support
mid comfort of the suffering class of this county,
and prevent at an early period that damnable prac
tice of selling out the poor and unthrtunate for
their sustivance to the lowest bidder; at such leaf
.tie, charity shudders, and the benevolent may prop
erly say, 0, shame where is thy blushl
For the want of proper accommodations at some
places, the poor are crowded together in a small
room, different sexes with different diseases ; which
is more apt to increase sickness than to restore
health. I shall only add, that those upon whom
the duty devolves, should hear in mind, it is for
the poor and unfortunate that they are called up
on IT the laws of God and man, to act promply.—
Those who are aiding and tending a helping hand
for the support and maintainance of the poor are
"lending to the Lord, and that which he hath given,
will he pay him 09001." REMEMBER TUE POOR.

that place, on one day, of forty-five fugitive slaves,
who had tied front Pittsburg, and were going to
Canada.

Ahead of all others with New Clothingl
THE undersigned have just received and are
now opening the largest and most splendid
assortment of FALL AND WINTER CLOTH.
ING ever brought to Huntingdon. Our new
stock consists of black, blue, green and brown
Frock and Dress Coats, from $6 to $l2, worth
more money ; black, brown, drab and blue Over

$l5; a line assortment of Business Coats, Pea
Jackets,
black Satin and Figured Vests, cassi
mere and cassinet Pants, Shirts, Suspenders,
Gloves, Stocks, Trunks and Carpet Bags, all o
which will be gald at auction prices.
Also, the Ilan styles of NEW YORK FIATS
and BOSTOMPOOTS, the superior quality and
low prices of which have astonished the world,
dumb founded Queen Victoria, and brought
Kietts off their Thrones to purchase from iisi—
Purchasers should BEWA RE OF IMPOSTERS
who ask five prices to their cloth ing, and who
allow themselves to be beat down to two prices.
Such a system is certainly not in accord.,
with fair &Riffle, and will not be practised at
the Hall of Fashion, as long as purchasers are
opposed to the "five price" system.
The HAM. OF FASHION has, after an existence
of three years, won a character for selling good
and fashionable clothing client., and it will en•
deavor to keep up that character, by selling at
FURTHER RES,UrED PRICES.
