STATE AGRICULTURAL FAIR.—The Ex
hibition of the Pennsylvania State Agri
cultural Society for 1859, is to be held at
the Poweltown Grounds, Philadelphia.—
'rhe time for holding the fair has not yet
been decided upon. The merchants and
business men of Philadelphia have been
quite liberal in making subscriptions to•
wards defraying the expeases and getting
it the Exhibition on an extensive scale.
MOP When it is rememberedthat the
only two U. S. Senators that the Locofnco
party could boast of in all the New Eng
land States were defeated in Connecticut,
thus sweeping out the last onstage of the
party in the Eastern States, the render can
early imagine what trifling.matters it takes
to encourage the unterrified Democracy.'
The only position they held in Connecticut
they lost, but because they did not lose
their last hold there by an entire unanimous
vote, they are gratified. They are wel
come to all that kind of comfort, if it of.
fords them any.
ICT'When Mr. Buchanan was running
for the Presidency, we were promised
that he would leave the institutions of lion•
ass in the hands of her settlers; that lie
would build a railroad to the Pacific ; that
he would gladden the home of the laborer,
at least in Pennsylvania. by protection, and
that he would guard the national gold with
strict economy. What has become of all
these promised measures ? Kansas is still
kept outside the door, because she reluses
slavery; the first sod has not been turned on
the Pacific railroad ; the Pennsylvania la
borer finds by the defeat of the Tariff, that
he has been duped and the expenditure
of the public money has been doubled.
All the promises he made to get office were
broken as soon as he got it.
The War in Europe.
The aspect 01 zuropeati aani, a „-
sent is by no means flattering, and it may
be ere this that actual hostilities have ta
ken place between some of the leading
powers. France and Russia have enter
ed into an alliance, and are rapidly send
ing troops to the threatened territories.
The ultimate aim of this war on the
part of France and. Russia, the two Brent
powers whose policy has brought it on, is
very probalajy the possession of the left
bank of the Rhine for the one, and of the
Bosphorus for the other. As yet, howev•
er, the lull scope of the conflict is not de
veloped ; but its immediate and apparent
objects are simple and easily explained.
Hostilities have been begun by Austria
against Sardinia, and the step is justified
by the former, as a necessary act of self
defence. Austria complains in her mani•
festo that, after years of liostility,Sardinia•
has finally taken up a position of declared
antagonism to her rights. By her arma
ments she has placed herself in a state of
perpetual preparation for attack; and the
invasion of the Sardinian territories pro
fftses to have for its object only to compel
her to disarm.
Sardinia, on the other hand, complains
that Austria, not content with the posses
sion of those parts of Italy assigned to her
by the Treaty of 1815, aspires to a com
plete control of the whole Italian peninsula
that, by means of her garrisons on th e
south aide of the Po, she sustains Govern
ments of so oppressive a character as to
keep up a constant state of agitation and
discontent; and that the peace of Italy can
only be preserved by the withdrawal of
the troops of Austria within her own limits
and the renunciation of the right of inter
vention which she claims against any at_
tempt on the part of the inhabitants of those
countries to depart (rain the Austrian mod
el of government and to approach to that
of Sardinia. She alleges that her arma
ments are strictly defensive, and that they
are necessary to guard her independence,
and to save her from being reduced to the
humiliating position occupied by all the
other Italian States.
The manifesto of the French Govern.
ment assumes as the basis of the action of
France in the case, the alarm produced in
the kingdom of Sardinia by the warlike
preparations of Austria, end the necessity
which France is under of protecting Sar
dinia against Austrian attack.
The objects of the Austrians and Sar.
dinians respectively are plain enough.
They represent two hostile theories as to
the government of Italy. It is clear that
neither would be satisfied without the en
:ire overthrow of the other. The problem
if indeed it is a problem, is to tell wha t
the French Emperor wants or what would
satisfy him. Upon this point Itis mani
festo tails to throw any light. lie pre

champion of the rights of the Italians gem- IMPORTANT PROM MEXICO. DEFUNCT LANCASTER BANK.—AI length we

He also pleaded another duty, to which

on whom he relied—the parties, namely
from whom the rescue had been made—
had been arrested under an indictment

must appear at Elyria on the 17th instant

The War News.
By the arrival of the last steamer from Eu.
rope, we have the most startling intelligence
from the seat of war. The question of war or
of peace - is definitely settled by this news, and
it is not necessary to comment or speculate on
the chances. The war is a fact. 'rho Austri
ans have crossed the Ticino, and hostilities
have already commenced. The French trunps
are pouring into Sardinia to assist the lied•
montese, and another week may brmg us stews
of a great battle on land already made histori•
cal and classic by great battles in repeated for
mer wars.
The main body of the Austrian army messed
the Ticino by the bridge of Boffalora on the 28th
of April. This bridge is a splendid structure
of stone, with eleven arches, all of tho same
size. It is 1,000 feet long, and cost about
$640,000. R•e are glad to find in the news no
confirtnation of the report that the bridge was
blown up after the passage of the army. oth•
er divisions of the Austrians crossed at other
points, and we bear already of their occupyi--
Amnia, on Lake Magiore, as well as the impor-
tant Sardinian posts of Intro, Palanza, Nova•
ra, Mortara and others. These embrace a
Ilse of 80 or 100 miles in length, and each tin,
ultanious movement of strong forces along the
entire Sardinian frontier, shows a grand milita•
ry plan, and a determination to carry on the
war sea inagni6ceut scale. do far as the ate
counts reach us, the Austrians have met with
little resistance. The allies seem to hu /e been
taken by surprise. Austria has made the
premier pas, and has all the advantage of it.
But we shall soon hear from France and Sac•
dinia, and in spite of early Austrian success,
we have faith that the ultimate triumph will
be with the allies.

he would leave in the evening for Cincinnati.
About 9 o'clock, however, he returned unex

SiorA correspondent of the St. Louis Repub.
lican writing fronneavenworth City, confirms
the reports which have heretofore been circu
lated in regard to the foray upon Chihauhua
and Sonora, in the event of the failure of the
Pike's Peak gold adventure. It is stated that
agents have been at work in getting up the
expedition, and that hundreds of those who
have repaired to the mines, are ready for any
enterprise, however bold or hazardous, provi
ded that it promises plunder. The great diff•
culty however is, to raise sufficient fu ds to

the men with a month's pay in ashram,

to save the rest.

Fires at Harrisburg
Ilmtnisnunn, May 13.—Two barns attached
to the State Lunatic Asylum near this place,
were burnt last night, together with their con
tents. Four horses were burnt to death, and
the wagons, mowers and reapers of the estab
lishment were destroyed. The loss is estima•
ted at $4,000. Two tenant houses adjoining,
were atso cormidembly damaged.
Martin Henry Wolf, formerly an inmate of
the hospital, has been arrested and committed
to jail on the suspicion of having set fire to the
property.
Another fire occurred at '2 o'clock this morn
• ing. The barn attached to the Dauphin, Coun
ty-Poor House, about a mile from this place,
was destroyed together with the contents: 23
tons of hay, 100 bushels of rye, and other pro
ducts of the farm. Four mules, five horses and
sixteen horned cattle were burned to death.—
The loss is estimated at $4,000 to $3,000, and
it is supposed both fires were caused by the
same individual (Wolf), as he escaped yest er
day from the Poor !louse.
era'An ardent young naturalist left Chicago
on Monday, and entered on a journey overland
to the polar sea. His object is the pursuit of
his fluorite science. Mr. Robert Kennicut (for
that is the name of the ndventuror) will go first
to Fort Carey, on the Red River of the North,
nod thence will make his journey with the
agents of the Hudson Bay Company, to whom
he has letters from the Governor, Sir, George
Simpson. He will visit York Factory un the
Hudson flay during the summer, and return.
in to Fort Gamey, will make a winter trip on
dog sledges to Groat Slave Lake, reaching
McKenzie's river in the spring of 1860, with
the whole of the summer of that year before
him, to pursue his explorations along the coast
of the Polar sea. He expects to return in
1861.
MURDER.-A Mrs. Mott, of 'thinning. Pa.,
mysteriously disappeared on the night of the 3d
inst., and, the next day her body was fcund
Boating in the river, about too miles below
town. The body exhibited various -marks of
violence, showing conclusively that her death
had been caused by blows. The coroner's ju•
ry rendered a verdict in accordance with those
facts. Circumstances appear to point to her
own son, John, as the murde.er, and he has
since been arrested and committed for trial.—
John was addicted to intemperance, and, tho'
an industrious, clever man, when sober, was a
fiend when intoxicated. If found guilty, in all
probability, he will lie hung; vet the Law
