WHIG STATE CONVENTION.
At a meeting of the Whig State Central
Committee, held at Harrisburg on Tues
day the 4th instant, it was resolved that
the Delegates to the late Whig State Con
vention be requested to assemble in Phila
delphia on the NINETEENTII DAY OF

Broadtop Railroad.
We call attention to the proceedings of
the Broadtop Railroad meeting held in this
place on last Friday evening—and to the
notice in our advertising columns for a
meeting of the Commissioners on the 10th
June next, in Huntingdon. The names of
all the Commissioners named in the act of
incorporation are appended to the call, and
it is hoped they will all be in attendance
on the day mentioned. An organized and
vigorous effort will insure the success of
the project.
Irr We have been presented with a
very neat fancy portrait, drawn with pen

He is well known to be in favor of the

[l7'lee .appropriation bill passed by
the last legislature amounts to $5,492,-
432,5.1, more than one million of dollars
more than the largest ono passed under the
administration of Gov. Johnston. Under

of some thieves.
Prohibitory liquor laws have passed in
the States of Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, Texas, and the Territory of Mine
sota. In the latter it was submitted to
the people of the territory, and was car
ried by a majority of nineteen votes.
The Homestead Bill, giving to every
actual settler 160 acres of the public lands,
has passed the House of Representatives
by a large majority.
From California.—The steamer Dan

gold. It is reported that the Indians in
Scott Valley had killed 140 white men
and stolen $240,000 worth of property.—
Crimes among the Whites had decreased.
Indian murders are reported in several

fL:' The Washington Correspondent of
the North American says—
It is as fixed as the decrees of fate, that
Winfield Scott will be nominated for
President by the Whig National Con
vention at Baltimore, and will be elec
ted in November next by a vote North,
and South, and East, and West, that will
astound even his most sanguine suppor
ters. In less than six months this predic
tion will be fulfilled or falsified. In the
fullness of faith I abide the result; and if
our Democratic friends are skeptical on
this, subject, and will name any candidate
on their side in opposition, they can have
the chance of improving their fortunes by
certifying their confidence.
'We advise the Locofocos to look out

The Appropriations for the Public
Works of the State.
Among the last acts of the Legislature
was the passage of the General Appropri
ation Bill. From this bill, a tolerably fair
idea may be formed as to the cost of keep
ing up and prosecuting tho public works
for the coming year. We give the items
exactly as they appear in the bill :
Paym't of interest on the fund
ed debt which was incurred
in building our State roads
1: and canals, $2,000,000
Repairs and improvements on
the public works, 199,900
For relaying Columbia Railroad, 200,000
For the Allegheny Portage
Railroad, 400,000
Delaware Division of Canal, 60,000
Ordinary repairs, 112,000
Motive Power, 444,000
For paym't of Commissioners,
Collectors, &c., 93,307
Rebuilding of the Northumber
land locks, Shamokin Dam, 25,000
For Repairs &c., 28,732
Damages by floods, &c., 174,070
Completion of the Western Re
servoir, 55,000
For future repairs and damages, 60,000
Add to the above the loan for
the North Branch Extension, 800,000
Total, $4,652,009 li
Hero is a grand total of four millions
six hundred and fifty-two thousand and
nine dollars to be raised during the pres
ent fiscal year for the riblic works of
Pennsylvania. At the end of the year
the account will stand thus :
Expenditures, $4,652,009
Receipts from canal and rail
road tolls, if we have luck,
say about,
To me made up, $2,852,009
Tax payers of Pennsylvania! The above
is the amount of the bill which you will
have to foot, in the public improvement
line, for the year of grace, 1852. For the
glorious privilege of owning and managing
railroads and canals, and keeping in office,
countenance and power, a whole army of
robbers and defaulters, you will have to
raise this year, by loan or otherwise, (in
addition to your other taxes) the enormous
sum of hoe millions eight hundred and
fifty-two thousand and nine dollars.—
Pleasant, isn't it? Don't you think it
high time to assume the management of
your own affairs, and to elect to office only
such men as aro known to be opposed to
the designs of the public plunderers and
known to bo in favor of the unconditional
sale of the public works.—Lycoming Dem.
Prospects of Gen. scoff.
A Washington Correspondent of the New
York Journal of Commerce says that the
friends of General Scott aro not at all dis
couraged as to his nomination, by the pos
ition taken by the Southern Whigs. They
claim four votes for him from the Kentucky
delegation, and four from Virginia. They
allow Fillmore and Webster only three
votes in the whole New York delegation,
and not twenty altogether, from all the
non-slaveholding States.
The friends of Gen. Scott, in the present
state of circumstances, claim ono hundred
and sixty votes from the non-slaveholding
States; three votes from Delaware; four
from Kentucky; and four from Virginia;—
making 177 votes, leaving Mr. Fillmore
and Webster in a minority of 119. This
they state as the result of the first ballot;
and they go on to claim the ultimate as
sent of all or nearly all the Northern Whig
delegates from the non-slaveholding States.
[Reacting Journal.
A COMPLIMENTTO6IEN. SCOTT FROM AN
ENEMY.—In a recent history of the war,
published by a Mexican, we find the fol
lowing:
"The benevolence of Gen. Scott on all
occasions, his kindness, as evinced to eve
ry individual, and his sympathy and atten
tion to the sink and wounded, endeared
him to the whole army, officers and men.
In fact the very generosity and excellence
of his heart led him sometimes too far, and'
he has since reaped in ingratitude the good
seed sown in the fullness of his noble sensi
bilities."
ANOTHER INLAND SEA.—A lake, ORO
hundred miles in circumference, heretofore
unknown to the whites, has boon discover
ed within fifteen miles.of St. Anthony.
EnormOtiv Extravagance.
The appropriation bill passed by the Le
gislature, together with the $850,000 bor
rowed for the North Branch Canal, and
Portage Railroad amounts to FIVE MIL
LIONS ONE HUNDRED AND NINE
TY-TWO THOUSAND FOUR HUN
DRED AND THIRTY-THREE DOL
LARS AND FORTY-FOUR CENTS ! a
larger amount than was ever expended in
any one year before. What say you, tax
payers of Old Berks to such a state of thingsl
Where is all this money to come from?
The money is to come from the pockets
of the people, and go into the pockets of
the office-holders, contractors and 'brig
ands' who control our public improvements.
What a very economical administration wo
have to be sure !
SENATORIAL TERMS EXPIRED.—The
terms of the following Pennsylvania Sena

TO OUR READERS.
By the announcement made last week
you are informed of the arrangement which
places under my supervision and control
the miscellaneous and business department
of this paper. I have not assumed this
position without considering the responsi
bilities it imposes. And though I darn
not flatter you with pompous professions
and promises of improvement in the col
umns over which I am called to preside, I
may say that my time and attention, and
my abilities, such as they are, shall be
faithfully devoted to my new sphere of du
ty; and that under all circumstances,
whether prosperous or adverse, my motto
shall be " onward and upward." More
than this it becomes me not now to say.—
Other pledge or assurance I shall not now
presume to offer, but by my works ye will,
in time, learn to know me.
1,800,000
[l7 We commence this week sending
our paper to a number of prominent indi
viduals in distant counties, hoping that
the generous friends of former days will
cheer us on the threshold of our editorial
pilgrimage, by the light of their approval,
and extend to us at least a temporary pa
tronage.
Tux PUBLIC SOIIOOLS.-By the ener
getic and united notion of our school di
rectors, the Senior and Secondary depart
ments of the public schools are now in
successful operation under professional
teachers of approved ability and experi
ence. A Primary, fifth school, has also
been organized and assigned to the care
and instruction of Miss Fisher, of Alexan
dria, a lady of dignity and address, and
apparently well qualified for the responsi
ble charge committed to her trust.
With this ample provision for the intel
lectual and moral training of the children
and youth of our town, it is to be hoped
that all " will grow in knowledge as they
grow in years," and become qualified in
head and heart to discharge the duties of
good citizens, and thus do honor to thar
parents and teachers, and illustrate the
glory and excellence of our freo institu
tions.
REMOVAL.
The Journal Office will hereafter be
found on Hill Street, in the brick building,

hope to make ample amends for this omis
sion.
