half an acre of pictorial literature for the

Among the costly and beautiful engravings
is a spirited one entitled, "Santa Claus's
Christmas Tourney." It is .the largest

Fatal lladrOil Accident.
Rartansuao, Nov. 29.—A car stand
mg on a sideling at the Cove Station, sev
mt miles above Harrisburg, was blown on t o
,e track so that the down train last even

engine, killing the flreroan, and badly inju
ring the engineer.
The Ilerk.s County Meeting and
the Tariff.
The Locofocos of Barks county some
time since held a meeting in the city of
Reading to take measures to obtain anted- ,
ideation of the Tariff of 1846 in favor of
coal and iron. Resolutions were passed
urging Congress to increase the duty on
those articles, while they still give in their
adhesion to the ad valorem principleof l
the present act. They desire the duty to
be increased fully up to the revenue stand
ard, and ask nothing ''or any other r,rticles
than those enumerated. We are informed
by the Berke and 2chnylkill Journal that
it was really laughable to hear old incorri
gible locofocos making Whig speeches. l
They deplored the depressed condition of
the iron and coal trade and pointed out the
remedy in the same language that the
Whigs have been preaching for years.
Not one of them, however, dared to raise
his voice in favor of it before the election,
but since that has taken place to their sat
isfaction, and rather than risk another one
without doing something for the honest
business of the country, they have conclu
ded to become the champions of honest
doctrines, in part, to save their party from
disruption. We wish them luck in their
attempt to run against their party and do ,
right. We are an honest advocate of, and
believe in, the doctrine of a protective tar
iff, and whosoever shall be instrumental iu
enacting it, to them will we give due cred
it. We are not desirous that the glory of
it shall attach solely to the Whig party,
but are willing that our opponents shall
share in the honor of a measure which is
for their interest as well as ours. Let
then both Whigs and Democrats fight
shoulder to shoulder for a measure of such
great importance.
We must say, however, that the Berksl
county meeting held very narrow views on
the subject which they met to discuss.
They ask special favors to be granted to
coal and iron, and nothing to anything else,
although these may be as much depressed I
as those. We do not advocate a protec
tive tariff because it will benefit this iron
master, or that cotton spinner, or yon
wool carder; wo advocate it because It will
put each of these trades in the aggregate
in such condition as to benefit the whole
country. Any other view makes a tariff
a mere bounty to those engaged in the
business proposed to be protected, irrespec
tive of the relation which that business in
a prosperous condition, bears to the wel
fare of the country as a whole. For in
stance, suppose, that under a protective
tariff, the country produced 800,000 tons
of iron in a year, which at $25 per ton
would amount to twenty millions of dollars.
Again, suppose that under a tariff like the
present the country produced only 400,0001
tons in a year, which at the same price
would be ten millions of dollars. It will
thus be seen that during the protective
tariff year ten millions of dollars worth of
property have been created in the country
more than under the year when the reve
nue principle prevailed. The same thing
is also true of every other business, so
that the direct tendency of a protective
tariff is to increase the general wealth of
the country. The Berks county meeting
does not desire that the business system
shall be entirely cured of all its maladies,
but is willing that it shall suffer with rheu
matic pains and occasional convulsions and
seems satised if the patient is able to crip
ple along on crutches. The small advance
on iron and coal asked for, will give but
slight relief; but still we will thankfully re
ceive whatever we can get, on the princi
ple, that "half a loaf is better than no
bread."
BEAUTIFUL TOKEN OF REOARD.-As
the widow of Dr. Judson was embarking
for the United States at Calcutta, a num
ber of noble-hearted and disinterested
friends made her a present of 8,000 rupees,
or nearly 81,500, as a testimonial of the
reverence in which they held her lamented
husband, and the respect and interest
which they felt for for his bereaved family.
By a striking providence she was preser
ved from taking passage on the Bucking
hamshire, which was burnt in the Hoogly
river,
TIME is no longer any doubt as to
the political complexion of the newly-eleet
ed Legislature of Now York. The Whigs
will have a majority of two members in tho
Assembly, whilst the Senate will be politi
cally tied, and presided over by a Demo
credo Lieutenant Governor. It appears,
however, that the casting vote of this of
fice does not extend to the passing of bills,
which, as they are required to receive the
votes of a majority of all the members of
the body, cannot be passed except with the
aid of both parties.
THE CHRISTIANA TREASON CASES.-
On the 241 it the United States Circuit
Court held by Judges Grier and Kane in
Philadelphia, commenced the trial of the
'Christiana cases.' The Government was
represented by the U. S. District Attor
ney, J. W. Ashmead, James R. Ludlow
and George L. Ashmead, Esqs. Robert
J. Brent, and the Hon. James Cooper ap
peared for the state of Maryland. The
counsel for Hannaway, one of the three
white pirsoners, are Thaddeus Stevens
and Joseph Lewis of Lancaster, and John
Read and Theodore Cnyler of Phila
delphia,
When the list of jurors summoned, was
called, nighty-ono persons answered to
their names. A number of jurors offered
many excuses why they should not be
compelled to attend ; and what is not a lit
tle remarkable, many of them urged they
were hard of hearing. A few wore ex
cused, but the Court directed each de
faulting juror to be fined $lOO if he did not
answer on the following day (Tuesday).
Judge Grier said he must compel atten
dance.
The necessary number of jurors having
been selected in the case of Castner Han
naway, the trial was opened on Fridayl
Morning last by J. W. Ashmead, U. S.
District Attorney. The following is the
testimony of Henry H. Kline, the officer
who accompanied Mr. Gorsuch to arrest '
the alleged fugitives :
He first testified to his authority in
serving the warrants referred to. He
then said: I left to execute those warrants
on the 9th of September, 1851; I had
with use Mr. Edward Gorsuch, John Ages,
Thompson Tully, a nephew of Mr. Gor
such, Dickenson Gorsuch, and a Mr. Nel
son. On arriving at Penningtonville,
about a mile and a half from Christiana
I saw a man from Philadelphia, named
Samuel Williams, a colored man; I made
inquiry after horse-thieves; ho said, your
horse-thieves have been hero and are
gone; I left and went towards the Gap,
and I saw Williams following after; on
arriving at Gallagherville, I took lodgings,
and on getting up I found John Agen
asleep in the bar-room; I asked about
Edw. Gorsuch, and was informed be had
gone to Sallisbury; I there found him at
about ten o'clock; I told him about a wag
on I had broken down, and informed him
that Mr. Agen and Mr. Tully were going
to Philadelphia : I did not make the ar
rangements with regard to Mr. Agen and
Mr. Tully; 3lr. Gorsuch had done it; Mr.
Gorsuch said ho would go to Parksburg,
and induce them to return ; I proceeded
to Downingstown, and found Mr. Agen
and Mr. Tully ; it was arranged that all
should go back; when about a mile from
Christiana. Mr. Gorsuch pointed out a
house where he said ono of the slaves
lived; he proposed to separate here; I
said no; we went on and came to an orchard
facing Parker's house; it was now day
break. (A draft was shown witness, which
he considered a very good one.).
•
Witness resumed-Whenabout forty
yards from Parker's house, I met a black
nian, and when he spied us, he ran back.
I ran after him. His name was Joshua,
Nelson, I should say; I saw but one; some
of the other witnesses say both; I fell over
a couple of bars; my revolver went one
-Nay, and I another; I got up and saw to
the house; Nelson ran up stairs: old Mr.
Gorsuch got to the door before me; I call
ed to the landlord and told him who I
was, and what I wanted ; ho said there
was no person in the house as Nelson and
Josh; I attempted to go up stairs; they
made at me with a thing with a prong to
it; they threw an axe down the stairway;
a gun was fired at once from one of the
upper windows at Mr. Gorsuch; I fired in
return; I then took a piece of paper from
my pocket, and tried to frighten them by
saying that I was going to order the Sher
iff and 100 men; they got frightened, and
Parker asked me to go for white men in
the neighborhood; at this time Mr. Han
neway came along on horse back; Mr.
Gorsuch asked me to go to him, and ask
his assistance; I went to him, and told
him my business, and showed him my au
thority.
He read the warrants twice; and I asked
him to assist; he said the colored people
bad a right to defend themselves.
At this time there were fifteen or twen
ty blacks present, some armed with guns,
which a few were loading; others were
armed with scythes, all had weapons of
some kind; several of the fifteen or twenty
came up after Mr. Hanneway, one I call
an Indian had a revolver; after I had
spoke to Mr. Hanneway another white
man came up in his shirt sleeves, named
Lewis; I asked him to assist also: he re
fused as Mr. Hannaway had done; he read
the warrants; I then said that if they
would not let the colored people fire onus, I
would withdraw my men; they said they had
no control over them; Hanneway went over
to a party whispering something to them;
they shouted he is only a deputy, and run
up the lane and fired; party No. '2 came up,
and fired also; I had got into a corn field;
the first person I saw was Dr. Pierce; Mr.
Dickson Gorsuch now came up to me, and
was wounded in the arm; he was bleeding;
Mr. Lewis I saw just after this, but would
not obey my call; I sought out a doctor;
on the way I met a man on horseback; I
told him I thought he was one of those
who were informing the colored people; he
made no reply and rode on; I afterwards
mot a man on horseback, called a squire;
I asked him about a doctor, and he direct
ed mo where could got one; I asked
about a horse and wagon, but he gave me
no information; I finally got Mr. Dickin
son Gorsuch to Penningtonville, and when
the train for Lancaster bad come along, I
put him in; I then made an effort to get a
wagon for the other Mr. Gorsuch; in the
Meantime I got information of Mr. Gor
such's death; I went to Christiana, and
Soon after the body of Mr. Gorsuch was
brought in; here a squire held-an inquest
on the body: a queer inquest; no witnesses
were examined, and I demanded to be
heard, but was not; the corps was shortly
after sent home; the next Morning I went
to the scene of action; met Dr. Pierce on
the way; he had not seen Nelson or Hutch
ins; I afterwards learned they were sick.
By Mr. G. L. Ashmead—l saw at
least one hundred negroes at the scene of
action; all were armed; some with scythes;
some with guns; at the time the firing com
menced I was in the long lane; I was
about ton feet from the short lane when I
got over into the corn field Mr. Hanneway
was about forty yards off; he was at rest
on his horst; several negroes came up and
passed him; I could not see if they were
armed or not;one I think bad a club; ho
did net attempt to stop them; after he had
spoken to them they shouted he's only a
deputy, and ran up the lane and fired; they
did-fire at me; party No. '2 fired in the di
rection I was; I got into the cornfield and
that saved me; I did not see Mr. Edward
Gorsuch killed.
By Judge Grier—At the time the first
gun was fired no one was injured; I did
not wound any one with my revolver.
By Mr. G. L. Asbmead—Mr. Dickinson
Gorsuch was wounded in the arm and body
and was bleeding out of the mouth, I set
him under a tree nearly facing the long
lane; he was badly wounded; I had a con
versation with Mr. Hanneway about an
Act of Congress; I told him that if any
one should interfere in the execution of
the Fugitive Slave Law, it was $lOOO fine
and imprisonment for five years; be said he
did not care fop any Act of Congress; af
ter I met Dickinson Gorsuch wounded; I
saw Dr. Pierce and Joshua Gorsuch • pur
sued in the long lane; they ran towards
Hanneway, and it seemed to me as if Mr.
Gorsuch tried to get behind of Mr. Han
neway's horse; or on top of it; I saw
Joshua Gorsuch afterwards a mile or a
mile and a half front the scene of the dis
turbance; ho was cut very bad, and was
not in his senses; when Mr. Hanneway first
came up to the bar, I saw the Indian Ne
gro and another; one of them loaded his
gun in my, Hanneway's presence; I saw
Mr. Hanneway the morning after the oc
currence; I had no conversation at that
time; I saw him afterwards at Christiana,
on the day of the arrest; I said to him you
are one of the men; he did not•deny it.
By Mr. Cooper—l saw Mr. Hanneway
the next morning after the occurrence at
Rogers' house; on the morning of the ar
rest, when I said he was one of the mon,
several were present.
By Mr. Brent—Ml my information
about the names of the blacks was derived
from the elder Mr. Gorsuch, when I first
got to the house, I heard several horns,
and I heard the guns being loaded up
stairs.
IMPORTANCE OF ONE VOTE.-000 vote
has achieved many strange results, but the
most curious exhibition of its importance is
given in a recent case in Maryland, where
the decisive ballot appears to have been
illegally given. It seems that a man at
Boonsboro' voted twice, giving as a reas
on, when cornered, that he had forgotten
the exercise of the privilege in the first in
stance. This illegal vote caused a tie be
tween the two candidates for the State
Senate in his district. The absent minded
' individual was a Locofoco. As the new
Constitution makes no provision for a bad
memory, he will hereafter be forever dis
franchised, and if marked, as he should
be, will make one vote less for the Loco
foco party in all future elections.
LANDS NOT PDBLIC &CURIUM-Up
tho trial of James Irwine, for forging
and uttering a land warrant, the circuit
court of the United States, for the dis
trict of Ohio, on the 4th inst. quashed the
indictment upon the motion of the defen
dant's counsel, who contended that there
was no law of Congress making the forging
of a land warrant a crime. Judge Lea,
vitt, who pronounced the judgement of the
court, hold that a warrant is not a public
security of the United States, within the
Imeaning of the act of Congress of 1825.
A PUZZLE INDEED.—Copway, editor of
the American Indian, puts the following
pertinent and puzzling question to the
abolitionists. It is worthy, also, of the
consideration of all reasonable men:—
some of our wise brethren tell us
how it is that the cause of the Indian is
met with such total indifference on the
part of the philanthropists of this nation
and the 'mother country,' while the zeal
with which they enter into that of the ne
gro almost shakes the earth with its vio
knee We speak here of philanthropists
—good men—not politicians."
