Wo understand from the Re. gieter that "it has spread through carelessness beyond the limits to which it might have been confined."

The Ohio State Journal contains the full of• ficial returns of the late election. The total stands as follows Chase, Medi Trimble, Chase's minority on the whole vote, The Vote in Kanzas. The following is the result of the election lately held in Kan.. ) according to the papers of that territory : Total number of votes east for Reeder, 2864 Total number do. do. Whitfield, 2462. The Kansas Herald remarking on this says, by examining the above returns it will be ob served that the principal vote of the pro-slave. ry party is polled at ten precincts, all of which places, save Leavenworth, are sparsely settled. These ten precincts poll 1657 votes, two-thirds of the entire pro•slavery strength. If this vote was thoroughly purged—as it will be before a Congressional committee—it would lie found that less than 1000 votes of actual residents of Kansas were polled for Whitfield. Impeachment of judge Kane. We see stated that petitions are in circulu• tiou in Maine. Illinois and other States, to Con. gross, praying that Judge Kane of Philadelphia may be impeached at the bar of the Unit3d States Senate, for misconduct in office, "in surping a jurisdiction properly belonging to the Courts of Pennsylvania, and committing, to prison P.m, ore Williamson, a citizen of Penn. • sylvania, without authority and in violation of his rights as a citizen of Pennsylvania, and of these United States." We aserved by a telegraphic despatch, that Judge Kane was at 'Washington a few days ago, and had a long interview with the President.— The Judge probably uhticipates some trouble ahead, and ilesii4s to secure the backing of the President and the administration, The British Naval Movement. We !earn from the Pittsburg Journal that att English gentleman in that City has r,• oeived by the last steamer from England a ter from a distingnished admiral in the Brit: Navy, which, under date of October 1.9, sar, `•For what reasons I know not, several ship of the Baltic fleet ant ordered to Bermuda Jamaica, which looks 'al, wcnth, • the westward. It may 1,, however, nals - crews in good health 'till the coming 4 . This corroborates the statements we pultF.:. iu another column, and at the same time sl,:w how it is regarded in the British navy. The,,i -gestllm that it is to I,ovp the crews in hutalth unt.l the coining spring, is said to be the explanation, given by authority, to the govern- merit at Washington. Lisbon is said - to be the usual rendezvous for that purpose, but as portant political purposes may be afoot in the Nest Indies, the health of the squadron serves well as an excuse for the present movement. I Postal Mismanagement. We cite the following, as one among many of the sad effects of post office mismanage moot, under the present Jesuistical rule of J. Ca..ipbell, whose only standard of &nest he has for In2usurin a man for office, is—is he a g .ad Catholic ? We venture to say that the post offie , der vtment of ..ar country was nev er so w"fully mismanaged, as under the super vision of Jimmy Campbell at the present tine. The Boston Post, in noticing a terrible in stance of suffering at St. Louis, caused by Post Office mismanagement or robbery, says a man who went thence to Te:sas, to return immedi ately, found some profitable business which would detain him several months and therefore wrote to his wife, inclosing $l5O for her. The letter never reached her, and being with her five children turned out of her home for non payment of rent, and driven to despair by the idea that her husband had deserted her, she drowned herself and youngest child in the Mis sissippi. The unhappy father and husband re ceiving no answer to his letter, returned to St. Louis to find himself a widower, and his chil dren supported by public charity. The Post master who stole that $l5O will hitve a fearful account to settle with a department, the Head of which it is impoasible to cheat or deceive. The Plan of the Allies. From the latest intelligencef;;the seat of war, it is evident that the Allies intend on the side of Eupatoria to threaten the rear of the Russians and cut off their communications, while they menace their left at Aitodor. Their I movements show that these operations are cots. bined in the same plan, while it is equally evi dent that Gortschakoff intends to keep his corn. munieations open with Perekop. Nur will he remain long contented to see the Allies gather. , ing forces in the rear of his position. The in- evitable consequence is there must be a fierce I and sanguinary struggle on the heights, from which, or either side ho can operate to great ad vantage. If ho worn to dispatch a detachment of eighty thousand to Eupatotia, it would be a bold stroke and disastrous to the Allies. And if such movement wore made with celerity, it would greatly peril the condition of the Allies at that point. The billigerent powers will scarcely remain nntisfied in their present three. toning attitudes ,ithnnt a collision. Reinforce. °Rents are continually arriving and the Allies are full of courage, and anxious to effect some further change in the condition of things at Se. bastopel. We shall soon have further intelli vine in re lad to their MOTeMellti. A Battle with Pirates in China. We neglected to notice last week that an en• gagement had taken place on the 4th of An• ted States stenm-frigate Powbatan and her Bri tish Majesty's steam•aloop Rattler, aud a large fleet of piratical junks which had for Mlle time previously infested the neighboring waters and committed extensive depredations on commerce The Powhatan's boat expedition was in com mand of senior Lt. R. B. Pegram ; that of the Rattler was commanded by Commander W. A. Fellows. The tight was severe, and ceded in a j complete ruute of the pirate. Captain Fellows having engaged a large war junk with his gig's craw and live musketeers, Lieut. Rolando cause to his assistance, and captured the junk by boar ! ding her, after encountering a hand to hand re ! sistance. Immediately after the capture she was blown up by one of the piratical crew, who fighting courageously, was forced below, and is supposed in his despo Mimi to have tired a train communicating with the magazine. The ef fects were tnost disastrous, capsizing the Rat tler's' gig, blowing Capt.:Fellows overboard, to gether with Lieut. Rolando and it number of the Powhatan's men, killing two and and severely wending others, one of whom has since died. Private Adamson, of the marines, Who fought gallantly during the day, was shot severely in the groin, after being one of the first to ::;ain the enemy's deck. Arany instances of individ• ual gallantry and daring arc detailed in the re port, and great praise is given to all who parti cipated in the engagement. During the action, ten war junks, men Ming on an average sixteen or eighteen gulls of from six to sixty-eight pounders, every burnt, blown up and destroyed. Six junks and larch,as were recaptured, one of which, being aground, was burnt. The others were placed under coevoy 146,611 181,091 21,310 8,760 of the Eaglet, a steam tender. Statues smal ler junks made their escape. The exact nun• her of pirates killed; wounded, and drowned during the enga;mment is not known, bet their loss is estimated at between five and six hilted ed. The decks were covered with the bodies of the slain, and the Water was filled with the drowning men. The force of the Pirates atm minted to about fifteen hundred turn. This of occurred on the coast of China, about the beginning of August. The Case of Paeimore ,On Saturday morning Passmo:',• . ,ts. • s appeared is the United States i i, in Philadelphia, accompanied by Me ,, , dith, Gilpin and Hopper, his ecum. , :. aml of fered a petition, in which h. , . .• -. 1 lingness to purge himself of ft, em.temi the Wheeler slave ease, for which he was im prisoned in July last. Judge Kane received the petition, granted the prayer net required Williamson to attires to what he had to say in reply to the interrogatories of the court. Car. tabu interrogatories were then propounded to him by Mr. Vandyke, the District Attorney, to which he replied "I did not seek to obey the writ by producittL: mentioned before the eon the p e rsona e teetsrelnlta there indnot, , at the time of the , 1,1 • the writ, the power ot-er, the ett , tod . ,' ..f them, and therefdra it wet • • : • . ; hear.' • •". f lt ' • • Friday, Lk: • :, .

Some discussion arose between the District Attorney and the counsel oral, Williamson.— Mr. Vandyke contended that the reply of the defendant was evasive and contradictory. 'lie Judge said she difficulty, he thought, :, • easily overcome by amending the answer, tail at the sugAtion of the Court it was amended in the following manlier; 'I did not so seek to obey the writ by produ cing the persons in the writ mentioned before this court. 1 did not seek because I verily be- Howl that it was entirely impossible fur me to produce the said persons agreeably to the com mand of the court. This answer was then accepted by the court and ordered to be Sled. Judge Kane then remarked that the District Attorney had been invited to aid the court in this case, but that he would bear in mind that his relation to Mr. Wheeler was now suspend ed. This was only an inquiry as to what injury had been dune the process of the court. Mr. Vandyke said that he was aware of the position he occupied. Judge Kane then said—'‘The contempt is now regarded as purged, and the party is now released from custody. lie is now reinstated to the position he occupied before the contempt Was committed. Mr. Williamson is now befom me on the return of the writ." Mr. Vandyke then arose and addressed the court, stating that a none pros. had been enter. ed in the case in this court, but that lie had, on behalf of Mr. Wheeler, entered a suit for dam• ages in the U. S. Circuit Court. Judge Katie thereupoti discharged Williamson from custo dy. lie was immediately surrounded and heartily congratulated by his friends. lie is said to look exceedingly e•elt. Think before Acting. The worst thing a man can do is to act with. out reflection. Your hasty person is generally a fool. He is always in hut water himself, or plunging, his friends in for Mtn ; he cannot be trued ; with the best intentions often be never theless does wrong. You might as well throw lots as take his advice for his decision is nev er worth the breath expended in giving it. _ _ . If a nine looks back over his life, he will generally discover that, hie errors have arisen from a want of reflection. He has entered in• to a partnership, without properly considering the character of his associate, the capital re• coked, or the fitness of the company for the work to be done. He has purchased a farm without duly examining the soil, its vicinity to market or the amount of money required fur necessary repairs. He has begun a business without measuring his means to the end. He has married a wife in a sudden whim, without studying her disposition or acquirements. He has embarked iu a speculation, without fully counting the cat'. In short, whatever has tent. ed out ill will usually be traceable to an owls sion on his part to proper reflection. Municipalities, commonwealths and nations are as liable to involve themselves in diflicul., ties as individuals ; and, therefore, reflection is as indispensable to them, before acting, as to private persons. It is easy to embark in im provements, and even pay for them in loans ; but when pay day comes, it is sometimes hard to meet the creditor ; but even many a corps• ration wishes it had thought more salon sly be- Ibre it was too late. It is not difficult to plunge a nation into war ; but it is an Herculean task often to bring about a pence. Young men, when starting life, especially in this "flint" sge, are too apt to,ahn for a char acter of doing things quickly. They forget that, unless things are well done, or a project well•censidered, their quickness is niers apps. rent than real. Davy Crockett said a thing as wise as the wisest of Bacon's aphorisms, when he gave the honest advice, "Be sure peters righl then go ahead." Post Office Depredations. For some time past; says the Cincinnati Times; there have been complaints made by the Post Oilier Department at Washington, of the large number of:otters, with money in them lost in transportation through Ohio, and which is said to exceed that of any other State. In consequence of these complaints, the U. S. Marshal has been unremitting in his efforts to ferret out and bring to justice these depreda tors; in which, with the assistance of Messrs. W. J. Drown and 'l'. P. Shelcross, the mail agents, he has been so far successful us to ar rest within the past five months no less than eleven postmasters, charged with this system of peculation, all of whom have been examined before the U. S. Commissioner, and several add to hail to stand their trial at the October term of the li. S. District Court. This is a pretty state of things. Eleven postmasters detected and arnsted robbing the mail, in one State, in the Union, in the short space of five months. But could anything else be e.speeted, when the Jesuit Campbell has been busy for two years past, hunting out the holiest American postmasters, and appointing in their stead red-nneed,d, ignorant Irishmen? This is bet a begi, . sit the postmasters who suppress Aie , ..rieei newspapers were ar rested tel tried, see think there would be few who wonld escape punishment. liNeullawat: Pacts alai Fancies, Flour for Sale., bair,:s of iluar fur sale.

More about that "Report." Why it was that the Huntingdon Globe utter. ed that contemptible falsehood, when it assert. ed we had left out a portion of the carriage committee's report, we cannot tell, unless it was to quiet the cravings of its inborn Loco. foco propensity ; or, perhaps the pocketbook of a certain gentleman in town, could explain the mutter at once, and satisfactorily. We feel called up fn to "make a note on" this matter. The Globe asserted we had "taken the liberty to strike out a portion of the mechanical entrain. lug committee's report." Any person who will go to the trouble ul examining, will find this to be a malignant lie. Will any gentleman of that committee say we did not publish every syllable of their report '1 The conduct of the Globe in willfully lying to array the mechanic:, of this county against us, if it could, shows the musturd.meed principles of its editors in no ve ry enviable light. Note as to whether Mr. Boat's carriages were superior to Mr. De Armies we leave the public to judge ; we don't know nor care, neither do we wish to know. But that is not the question. We spoke of De Armies carriages particular. ly, because we conscientiously considered theta to be superior to any oflllekixd ou exhibition, and we presume he had an equal tight although not a citizen of the county, to a notice from us. Mr. Boat's carriages we noticed, and they Were very creditably constructed, and they very justly drew a premium, but Mr.. Do Armies manufacture were equally handsome. We pre sume we are not compelled to limit our remarks and confine our encomiums to special manta• fbcturers disregarding honest worth in rt'l ,th• era. We give place to an extract from a com munication from Mr. De A. to a Uol. paper. "Why it is that the Globe persists in adding insult trsinjury, I cannot understand. Is their issue of last week they try to make the impres. slot, on the minds of their readers that the Journal is opposed to their own mechanics, be cause, forsooth, the editors take a favorable no• Lice of a Blair county mechanic's work," etc. Mr. DeArtnit uortainly any wonder, but the "reason why" is very apparent—tt dislomestat tempt, by willful fabrication, to injure his neigh. bees business.

There were found in the cellar 22 brigs, each contain• ing 1000 ducats in gold, and in different chests securities out of date and lost for a sum of ISO,. 000 florins.

Interesting News of the Week. Railroad Conspirators Arrested. Our readers will remember that 011 the 9th of Juno last, II serious occident occurred by the placing of obstructions on the railroad traok, near Stoughton. Governor Partstow very rightfully °Wired a reword of $5OO, td which the Superintendent of t h e road added $lOOO more, Inc the arrest of the conspirators. Ofli. eye Beck, Chief of the Police of Milwaukee, and an officer from Chicago, placed themselves about the train on the watch for the conspire. t ore. They went to live in the neighborhood hiered out by days' work; slept with them and ate with them. "Patient search and vigils long" the officers at length discovered, no they thought indications of a renewal of the attempt for the destruction of tho train last evening. So they stationed themselves Ly the road, secreted in the gross. The attempt was made within about five.yards of where Mr. Beck lay.,The depre dators were five in number. Tey first at• tempted to pry up the rail. This they failed to di). They then brought a log from a short distance, and placed - it directly across the track. They were in perfect view of officer Beck during the whole operation, and he re• cognized each of the individuals engaged in it as living in the settlement where he had been staying. Aftrr the log was placed on the track, n pad. estrian passed along the track and saw it there. He stopped and looked at it; looked around and passed on without removing it. HO woo also arrested as an accessory, but explains his conduct by saying that he saw two guns polo• ted nt him threateningly, in ease he attempted to remove the obstructions. Officer Beck and his companion, after wit nessing the operations of the destructionists, left n signal fur the train to stop. They then proceeded to Stoughton, where they procured the assistance of John Van Natter, and tinder Sheriff Weleh, with whom they visited the set tlement where the detected scoundrels lived nod arrested them. There W. little or no rests. tance made. The prisoners were conveyed over to the track, pat on hoard the 'evening train which awaited them, and the whole l o wly was brought to town. By this net, our whole community has re ceived a sense of relief. The Warm,us gang has rendered unsafe all travel over the road for the past nine months.
