The News from Europe.
The intelligence brought by the last steamer
from Furope, is not of that exciting and inter
cstiug character which was generally antici
pated. We are still without definite informa
t ion as to the bombardment of Sevastopol, but
it seems to be certain that great preparations
were being made to renew the attack on a
larger scale than any yet attempted ; and that
it. is intended to be followed by an assault. We
may therefore, expect soon to hear of some de.
risivo action, either resulting in the triumph of
the Allied forces, or a repulse which will he
equivalent to a defeat, and settle the mooted
qaestion whether Sevastopol can be taken.
The news from Germany in relation to the
grain crop is of a very unfavorable character.
The supplies at, this time or the year are usu•
ally very small and the prices not high, but the
uceounts from Nist Prussia,Pomeranio, Silesia,
Mecklenburg and Holstein have caused great
excitement. Rye will give hardly onelittlf the
average. The Wheat has been so much ui
lured by the rust that the entire loss of it is
feared, while the disease of potatoes has been
of so great extent, that the worst is to be ex
r•cterl. The stock of old Wheat is entirely ex
haosted. Under CiretintStanrem price. in nll
the Continental Markets, with the exception
.1* Holland, have considerably advanced.
The Yellow Fever,
There appears to be no abatement of this
terrible scourge at the Smth. Hundreds
have already fallen victims to the dreadful
plague, and the accounts still being recei
ved are by no means indicative of any .
change for the better. The news from the
cities of Portsmouth and Norfolk, receiv
,d sip to the time of our going to press, is
awful in the extreme. The citizens of the
places who coald, have left, and tho re• '
staining inhabitants are suffering front fa
mine as well as fever•. The number of
deaths for the twenty•four hours ending on
Thursday morning, at 2 o'clock, was sev
enty. The fever has attacked the physi
cians wlu went from this and neighboring
Staten. No less than four from Philadel
phia, and one front Columbia, are down.
It is hoped that they will speedily recover.
Only one man is left out of 18 employed
ut tho Railroad Depot at the commence
ment. About five hundred cases exist at
Portsmouth, up to the last date.
The citizens of Baltimore, send down
daily a steamboat loaded with pt °visions,
for the sufferers. Besides this, they have
subscribed very liberally in answer to the
uppdals for assistance from other places.
In Boston a very largo meeting of the cit
izens had been held, and measures adopted
for the aid of the sufferers. Some $lOOO
have been forwarded by the merchants,
and a similar amount by the other citizens
of Ike place. Assistance is pouring in
from all quarters.
Monsieur Tonson come Again.
The liitle croaker of this borough, with
remarkable condescension ' , hails with do
light another American paper." Oh, ye
godsand little fishes ! That's cool. An
other American paper—g.ro-organized,"
ot that. Now we would simply advise the
voluminous editor of the little croaker, to
lake a walk among the people of the coun
ty, and then inform us whether lie will in
sist upon his self-constituted, meat-axey
organ shi p.
Bachelor's Fare.
We have noticed for some time in the
:hitleysburg Herald, a writer ender the
signature "Fannie." Fannie is an enthu
siast, or something akin thereunto. Wo
like Fannio's style well, and if she is an
good as the sentiments she utters we would
he tempted to give up our bachelor's fare.
How is it friend Lutz 1
Crowded Out.
We are again compelled to crowd out
a number of communications intended for
last week's paper. We are sorry for this,
but it is unavoidable. .Wait a little longer.'
The Little Croaker.
The two hundred and ten readers of the
Huntingdon fimerican, printed and pub
lished in this borough, are treated to a con•
glomerated hash of suspicious rhetoric.—
We cannot spare much space in criticining
upon the learned professor's hashed, re
hashed and balderdashed nonsense, but we
will do what we can to give the "little
croaker" some notoriety, and lay its claims
on the public, before our readers. In the
last sheet, three columns of matter are de
voted to the Huntingdon Journal ; a long
winded, and agonized article, to prove the
"American" the organ of the k. n. order,
Of the county.
In the first place, the 'American' quotes
a number of articles, which it unblushing
ly asserts appeared "verbatim" in this pa
per at difTerent periods ; we have a recol
lection of the articles in question appear
ing in the Journal, but not in the mutilat
ted condition they appeared in the 'Amer
ican."Phe ungenerous editor of that pa
per, has, by publishing false statements,
and in many instances openly and wilfully
prevarilliting, made himself entirely ob
noxious to the lovers of morality, and we
could not of course exrct anything else
from him. But, we do not shrink from
anything we have ever said. All the ar
ticles alluded to by the American, as they
appeared in the Journal, convey 'our pre
sent sentiments entirely, and that our rea
ders may know them, wo will give their
suns and substance in a nut-shell. We
said the k. n. ,)arty should not proscribe
experienced men, and we think so yet.—
We said the k. n. party should repudiate
old, worn out, party hacks—we think so
yet. We said we were in favor of open
American organization—we think so yet.
We said the Whigs should have nominat
ed a full Whig ticket, and we would have
supported it, and that ns they refused no
to do, but rather unite with Locofocos, all
allegiance betwixt loyal republicans, and
the party representatives who would es
pouse Locofocoism, was, and should be
at an end. This in sum, substance, and
bulk is the whole matter those articles con
tained, which the "American" paraded in
its columns, to prove that the Journal was
not the ' , re-organized" (as it terms it) or
gan of Americanism ! Does it not bring
vividly to mind the picture of the drown
ing man catching at straws 1 S•al ?
In the second place—we now propose
showing the grounds upon which the A
merican lays its claim to the organship.—
The , American" printing materials were
purchased by a company. Some of the
stockholders wets politicians, some office
seekers, one, and the principal one, a traf
ficker in the damning poison, whi•:h de
stroys its 80,000 victims in this Common
wealth annually. The object of the poli
tical office-seekers is very evident. They
wish to make it the raft whereon they can
drift into office. But it would never do
for one of the stock holders to become ed-
itor, but the editor must be a pliant tool,
a mere drudge for the "company," never
theless, notwithstanding. The "compa
ny" It must be confessed, showed the
phrenological knowledge of its members,
in the selection of James S. Barr, a good•
natured, simple soul, and we believe, an
itinerant schoolmaster. (Our devil informs
us, he is the same individual who, to the
immortal shame of Iluntingdon County,
be it said, was elected County Superinten
dant, to prevent his filling•..a place in the
Peer House.) ln the selection of the work
man, honesty, we presume was not consid
ered of any vital consequence. Now the
“Ainerican” stands before the American
party of the County in its true colors. A
tool for a few office•hunters. Will it
support such men as its editor's masters ?
We have but one more word, and we
dismiss the subject. Who is the most
consistent American ? Let us see.
The Huntingdon Globe assails one of
the editors of this paper, for editing the
first American paper in the county ; we
now allude to the Standing Stone—and,
denounced him because he "supported
and labored for the success of the Ameri
can ticket." This was when success to
the American cause appeared hopeless.--
The Globe asserted all this, as every one
knows. Now, where was James S. Barr,
then. Did he practice the principles ho
preached ? Did ho dare, poor as he was,
act a freeman's part ? No ! Shame to
his craven heart, lie dishonored his profes
sion. We have the evidence, in his own
language. We have reasons to believe
he done his utmost against the success of
the ticket.
Now in view of this, would it not be
creditable for the present editor to engage
in some occupation to Nhich his natureand
education may call him. We think so.
That Address,
The able address we published last week
should have been credited to James C.
Clarke of Birmingham.

This article is now prescribed by some of the
most distinguished Physicians in the country,
and has proved more efficient in practice than
preparation of Sarsaparilla yet offered the pub
lic. Several cases of secondary Syphilis, Mer
curial and Scrofulous discuses have entirely re
covered in the incurable wards of our Public In-
StillitiONS which had for many years resisted ev.
cry mode of treatment that could be devised.—
These cases furnish striking examples of the
salutary effects of this medicine in arresting
some of the most inveterate diseases, after the
glands were destroyed and the bones already af-
Acted.
