Editor, and has been ap pointed agent to collect the subscriptions, in Juniata Comity, to, the Jefferson Col lege Endowment Fund., and to grant certi ficates of scholarship for the same. Thomas P. Campbell, Esq. On our first page will be found the very able and eloquent address of this gentle man, delivered before the 4 , Zetamathean Society," of the Juniata Academy, at Shirleysburg. He has portrayed the mission of the American Scholar in very brilliant terms, and the speceh is worthy of a careful pe rusal, It is instructive and eloquent be cause Mr. Campbell is its author. We hope the young gentlemen, to whom it was delivered, will be hem:fitted by it. Our Paper. As soon as we can make the preliminary arrangements, we purpose enlarging and improving the 'Journal' considerably, so an, to make it, in appearance and size, to equal, if not surpass, any one of a similar kind in the interior of the State. And we hope our friends in the country and else- 1 where, will, give us their aid and influence in this very desirable undertaking. Our wish is to make it a family as well as a political paper, and to do so, we must bare the encouragement of our friends, and we doubt not, we shall receive it. We desire, if possible, daring the former part of the coming summer, to.increase our subscrip tion het several• lezindred; and this will afford us an opportunity to renew our ac quaintance with many or all of you, and to make additional ones, for we intend to vis it you personally. Our county ought, and can, with great ease, support w much lar ger and better paper than the "Journal" now is, and since we have the disposition to make it so, we hope those who feel in terested in the project, will stand by us.— We should be much pleased, at any time, to take by the hand any of our friends from the country, when they aro in town, and feel disposed' to. favor us with a call. We would be happy to cultivate their acquain tance more extensively,, and counsel to gether as to the best policy to pursue to increase the usefulness of the Journal and disseminate the principles it advocates.

PATRONS AND Famps.—After a brief but pleasant acquaintance, we this day make to you our parting bow, and commit the destinies of the Journal into younger and more zealous hand's. Our connexion with your paper was merely an experiment, designed to answer a single purpose—the weaning of our thoughts from intense, health-destroying application to the Pro fession of our young life's choice, and whole life's affections. The experiment has been eminently successful; and has done for us, what medical skill and many months of more indolent relaxation had failed to accomplish •—restored us to com pavative, physical and mental health. We therefore, resign to another, the control of the Journal, with feelings of gratitude to a kind Providence, who has so signally blessed it to our use, and with many thanks to our generous and indulgent patrons, who have kindly borne with our inexperi ence, and nobly rewarded our poor efforts to serve them. :n selecting a successor we have been governed entirely by the unanimous voice of the Whigs whose wishes we were able to learn; having satisfied them, we have, of course, pleased ourself, and we hope, dis charged our duty to the party. The accounts for subscription are now in the hands of Mr. Glasgow; and all that were not adjusted and receipted prior to Friday, the 18th inst., must be settled with him. Those who have paid in advance will receive the paper just as if no change had taken place. The jobs and advertising that hc,ve been done in• the office during the past yeas, or that shall be.done prior to thefirst day of May next; will belong to us. Mr. Nash, who is still Foreman in the office, is authorized to settle these accounts in our.• 'absence; and we hope our friends and all these indebted will call as soon as possible and make payment. J. A. HALL. March 23, 1853. Readers, the political editor is com pelled to withdraw from the conduct of the Journal, as suddenly as he commenced his labors. Only on the assurance, that my services would be temporarily needed, did I consent to take, from my profession, the time and labor, which I have bestowed up on the editorial columns of the Journal; and it is a source of gratification to me that my release from that toil has been sooner than I then anticipated. I then felt, and still feel, an enduring interest in the Hun ing,don Journal.. I brought it into•beitig, and have ever rejOiced in its prosperity.— You will, I know,excuse me, when, in reti ring, I commend it to your warmest con sideration.. It passes into the hands of one abundantly able to make it worthy, of the patronage of all; and one who purposes to spend his whole strength, to make it valu— able, and efficient, as a newspaper, and•as. the organ of that party to which it has ever been attached. A. N. BENEDICT. To the Patrons and Friends of the . 6 Huntingdon Journal.” Having resigned the praotice of the Law, for the present, and assumed the Editorial Chair, I regard it my duty, as custom seems to have established the rule, to give you a short programme of the principles by which I shall be governed iu the discharge of the obligations therewith connected. And I have not made this assumption without feel ing deeply sensible of my inability to pro perly meet the grave responsibilities con nected with the position of an Editor; but I pledge myself, whatever little ability I may have, it shall be exclusively employed to their legitimate discharge. I' hum that I shall be unable to gratify the wisheaof all—to fulfil the expectations of, every one— and to accord with every di versity of opinion, nor indeed is there such desire on my part; but I shall spare no pains, nor consider any task too laborious, in the endeavor to meet the demand of pop ular sentiment, and secure the general ap probation of the Journal's readers and pa, crops. Reflection on the past history. of" the public Press, recalls to memory many sad incidents connected with the career of ed itors. The biographies of many, there is no doubt, have been written in fieep sorrow on the hearts of affectionate and esteemed companions. But I shall try to avoid the shoals on whiels many have wrecked, and sail around the rock against which others have split, and guided by the Vest reason nature has given me, aided by. the intelli gence of the community, I shall endeavor to pursue the course that leads to prosper ity and success. The political complexion of the Journal shall continue to be what it always has been. To me Whig principles and measures are dear; and through me they will ever find a willing and ready advocate; because I be- lieve their proper, practical development! , will tend to elevate the character of our common country to that high position to which, in the destiny of nations, she is en titled—and because I believe their influ ence will result in the prosperity of our people—secure the happiness of our citi zens, and cover our national name with un fading glbry. The management of the press is my own voluntary act. No special influence, on the part of any individuals, was used to in duce me to assume its responsibilities; and of course, I am under no obligations for any private agency, from any source, and I will not, under any circumstances, devote its columns to the advancement of views or opinions of any faction, clique, or coterie, whatever. I will strive to make the paper not only of general utility to the whole Whig party, but of general advantage to all classes of the community. As Editor, I deem it expedient or politic to remain neutral on the subject of forming county or district tickets for the support of the party, until after the nominations !lave been made. But as soon as tickets shall have been formed, by regularly called Conventions, the Journal will heartily en dorse them, by hoisting the names of the nominees to the bead of its columns, and advocating their elections. The retiring Editors have my wishes for their happiness and continued success in their respective professions. S. L. GLASGOW. Accidents on the 'Pa. Rail Road. We cannot refrain from saying a word on this subject, although it has been several days since the last melancholy accident ee curved, and might be considered past the titodwilen public presses should notice it. Whether these accidents have taken place on account of carelessness on the part of those employed on the trains, or of a waist of prudence on the part of the Com pany itself, or by the mere ordinary course of things, may possibly, in the minds of some, be a question; but with us it is none. We are well satisfied, from what informa tion we can glean, that tbey wore the re sult of outrageous negligence on the part of the employees on the cars, and of a se rious want of prudence on the part of the Company. Why don't they procure the services of men who are competent and tem perate, and who have some regard for hu man life? Now, in our opinion, judging from‘ the tone of popular sentiment, it would be po litic and wise, in those divested with the authority, to see to this matter. If this state of things long conticue, it will evidently injure the reputation of the Road, and induce Western travel, going East, to take a different route. It is exceedingly sad to reflect, that the accident which occurred only a few days ago, on the Pennsylvania Railroad;.near Newton Hamilton, by a passenger train running hito a freight train, has caused the loss of eight lives., and othersostill,• we are told, who received mangled woundsi• in the 'melancholy catastrophe, are •expected eve ry hour to pass away. If the Company, wish to save and increase the reputation of. the Road, and thereby secure travel or pa tronage, they must adopt such measures as will ,be considered, by the travelling public, a safer guaranty for human life. We have nothing to say against the con ductors-on the several passenger trains.— They are all, we think, clever and efficient mon, and as far as our knowledge extends, the community, generally, so regards them. State Agricultural School Conven- lion. This body assembled in the Senate Chamber, Harrisburg, on the 9th day of the present month. Nearly all the coun ties in the State were well represented by delegates appointed for the purpose. A. mong those not represented was Hunting don County, which was certainly not inten tional on her part, for we feel satisfied, that she is as much interested in agriculture, and contains as many good men engaged in it, as perhaps any other county in the State, except one or. two. The objcet•of this Convention was to take into consideratien the. expediency or practicability of establishing in Pennsylva nia an Agricultural College, or High School, for the purpose of affording our farmers' sons and others an opportunity to acquire a knowledge of the sciences con nected with agriculture and the usual branches of a common education, necessa ry to make them good,ckillful tillers of the soil, and at the same time, useful and Intel ' ligent citizens of society. This io evidently, to the mind of every reasonable matt, a very commendable un dertaking, and should by all means, in our .!opinion, receive not only the encourage- ment and hearty support of the people gen erally, but also the sanction, and if neces sary, the material aid of the Legislature. Of course we are not infavor of promoting the interests of one branch or class of labor at the sacrifice, or to the total neglect of others, but the purpose of the proposed School demands as immediate attention as perhaps the claims of any other depart ment of labor at this time. It will be an honor to the State to have such a School ; and it will be a projeot sacred to the mem-1 ories of those who were principally instru mental i 3 securing its organization. We wish success to the undertaking, and .we hope those in the State interested or enga ged in agriculture will not be backward in lending their influence and support in ac complishing the object proposed by the con vention. We may have more hereafter to say on this subject when we have room. The Murderer Found. Evidence was discovered on Monday morning which fixes the murder of Han nah Shaw and Ellen Lynch, who was bru tally murdered, in the district of South wark, Philadelphia County, on the 10th inst., On ARTIIIIR SPRING, one of the per sons under arrest. The•evidence, although necessarily circumstantial in its chatacter, is still so complete, as to reduce the ques tion of his guilt almost to a certainty. Tribute Us President Fillmore troi his Cabinet. We have much pleasure, says the National In telligencer, in giving publicity to the following correspondence, which reflects equal honor upon President Fillmore •nd the members of his Ad miniktratiom ft has, we presume, rarely happen ed• that so grant a degree of harmony has existed between a President and every member of his Cabinet. It may he supposed by some that the relations of Mr. Webster and Mr. Fillmore, as candidates for the Presidency, formed an excep tion to this remark. We have, however, the best reasons for believing that their friendly and con fidential intercourse, personal and political, woo never for a moment Interrupted. LETTER TO PRESIDENT FILLMORE. WASHINGTON, March 3, 1833, Su t: As our connexion with yon is about to terminate, we cannot forbear to give utterance to' the feelings of unmingled satisfaction with which we look hack upon our official and pereonatinter. course. We have witnessed with adMikatibu your untiring devotion to the pablie service, and your . patience and . assidnity in . discharge of the in cessanc and' labOrlous duties of your office. Near observation has afforded us innumerable proofs of the enlightened and comprehensive regard for the best interests of the whole Union, which you have brought to the execution of . the hith trust which devolved upon you under circumstances of peen ! liar embarrassment. For the fidelity to its best interests which yon have thus Manifested, the country, we believe, will yet, with one voice; do you . ample justice. We hare the greatest pleasure in adding, that the unbroken harmony which has prevailed in your Cabinet, and between yourself and all its members, has greatly Iheilitated the performance of our ordinals labors.

REPLY OF PRESIDENT FILLMORE, WASHINGTON, MARCH 4, 1853, GENTLEMEN t Your kind note, which was han ded me last evening, was as unexpected as it was gratifying. While I cannot flatter myself with the idea that I am• justly entitled to all the praise which your friendship has so generously bestowed, I am frank to confess that I do feel a conscious ness that Mayo spared'no pains to merit it. Of thii, however; you are the best judges. Yon have been daily companions, and can hest appreciate the motives with which! have discharged my of ficial duties. But it is duo - to • yen, and 'to those who preceded some of you, as my officitiradvisers, to say thee the success °luny Administration' is chiefly owing to the wisdom, harmony, fidelitY, and ability of my counsellors; and that the coun try, us well as myself, owes them a debt of grati tude which I doubt not it will recognise in due time, and cheerfully discharge. No President was ever more fortunate than.i have been in-the' selection of his cabinet. No manifestation of unkind feeling, or even a hard word, has ever distarbeci' the harmonious action of the councithoard. This cordial unanimitrhas not only advanced the • publio• service; hut has been at all times to me a source, of unalloyed satisfaction. I shall ever reflect upon our social and official intercourse with great pleasure, and cherish, to my latest breath, the disinterested friendship with which it has been ntarked. Please to accept my sincere thanks for the faithful, able and satisfactory manner in which you have respectively discharged the arduods and responsible duties of your several offices, and also my best wishes for j our health and prosperi ty; anti believe. me, gentlemen, your sincere friend.

Mr. Editor :—lf you can find space in the columns of your able paper, please in sert the following brief communication.— We were present at the Exhibition of the Cassvillo Seminary, on the evening of the 2cl inst., and take pleasure in saying it was a grand affair, and deem it worthy of no tice in your paper.

The music class, under the instructions of Mr. BLEtstimade a grand display.. The. Essay read by Miss E. V. Mann, (subject Woman's rights) and the Oration, delivered by Mr. J.

England in ilondurasi Our telegraphic dispatches from New- Orleans on Monday announce that a Brit ish frigate has anchored off Truxillo, in Honduras, and forcibly taken possession of that place, and that the sound of a cannon ade had been heard at Limas probably from a repetition there of the same process. Truxillo is the chief sea port of Hondu ras, and is a town with about two thousand inhabitants, and sotto considerable fortifi catibns remaining from early Spanish times. .In fact it was dine of the first places on the Continent dikes , eted and Settled by the Spaniards, Columbus himself hating touch ed there. Since the establishment of Cen tral American independence it has always belonged to Honduras, and no pretence to claitult for any other proprietor was ever thought of till November, 1847, when Mr. Walker, H. 13. M. Consul General in Mes quite, being on a flibustiering excursion with the frigate Alarm, suddenly descended on this unsuspecting place and ordered the inhabitants to haul down the Honduras flag and acknowledge the King of the slosqui toe as their sovereign. This they utterly refused to do, and Mr. Waker not daring to bombard then, went off with the Alarm, first having sot up the Mosquito flag on a lonely beach without the harbor. For this escapade he received front his superi om a more or less serious reprimand, and there the matter ended for the time. Lf the report frotilNew-Orleans is not exaggera ted, his attempt is now renewed, the triutu phant experiment with the Bay Islands, having probably developed 'the taste for fur ther operations in the same line. This time, however, the demand is made in earnest with bombs and round shot to enforce com pliance: But while this affair of Mr. Walk er in 1847, and the equally unjustifiable 1 seizure of the Bay Islands, concur to ren- 1 ! der Tts i t i ts t er o ipe i ;s us h i a ie v i ie t 7ts r oc e iatel together, un- NEW FIRM , der possible just such an outrage as this I present teported act of burglary, it is pto lot' merehundizing, respectfully .. t iu r tiirm ar t t li i e le ir p r i i r c l inds e per toss nit for further and more certain de tails. before . forming a decided opinion on • and the public, that they will continue business s A til Dm Goons, wherethey otter a general assort . the ease; In truth there Is a slight improb-1 at the old stand of Porter & Bucher in the borough of p ability about it.

M u u ""' Esq.,Committee ' T. I. .ATTON, No. 17. We, ourselves, and perhaps no other' person, ever knew a set of medicines to gain such universal confidence as Dr. J. W. Cooper's In. , dian Vegetable Preparations, prepared only by C. P. Hewes, neither have we ever known any medicines to be so universally successful in the cure of the disease for which they are recommen ded. They. are also different from most other preparations before the public, inasmuch as they are offered for the cure of but one disease, and we must say, that even if we knew nothing of their wonderful success, the simple fact of their being recommended each to cure but one disease, would ' give us more confidence in them, and be sufficient to induce us to give them a trial, in preference U . ; any others, for we must say that we have but little confidence in any medicine which is recommen ded to cure mote than one disease. But this is not all; the universal success and wonderful cures which these medicines ate every day performing is sufficient to warrant any person who may be afflicted with .y of the diseases for which they are recommended, in diving them a fair trial.— They consist of Dr. J. W. Cooper's Indian Vege table Cough or Consumptive Syrup, for the cure of Coughs, Colds and Consumption. Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Dyspepsia Bitters. They are a certain and never failing cure for Dyspep sia, even in its worst forms. Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Rheumatic Drops. These drops oper ate upon a principle entirely different from all other Rheumatism Medicines, and are universal ly successful in effecting a cure. Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Compound Fever and Ague Pills. The Pills are a certain and never-failing cure for this disease in from three to six days.— Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Worm Powders; for Use destruction of Worms, nod pleasant for children to take. Dr. J. W. Cooper's Anti-Dys pepsia Pills; for the cure of Costiveness, and for all diseases requiring a purgative medicine, they cannot be surpassed, they operate without causing the slightest pain. These medicines are for sale by T. Read, do Sou, Huntingdon; G. W. Brach man, McVeytown; and J. M. Belford, Mifflin town, who is agents for the Proprietor, C. P. Hewes, 6 6 - We have frequently heard the celebrated German Bitters, sold by Dr. C. M. Jackson, 126 Arch street Philadelphia, spoken of in terms of the highest commendation, and we honestly be lieve that it is one of the best medicines advertised for the complaints for whin it is recommended. They are pleasant to the taste, and can' betoken under any cirednlsfences b 7 the most delicate stomach. The press far and wide, have united in. commending this invaluable remedy for dyspepsia, debility, &b.; and such are the healing effects of this panacea, that we hope it may be introduced into every family where dyspepsia has, or is like ly to have,,a victim. 4.
