Freemen of Adams!
();:rean you vote for 'filen put forward by
a party who is opposed to every interest
calculated to promote the proepority of
Pennsylvania—the party headed by Martin
Van Buren, who .openly declares that i
elected he will, among other things equally
as important, oppose and veto any bill going
to distribute the Surplus Revenue among
the States, by which Pennsylvania would
loose $10,000,000! Do his friends
deny this? Then let them read Martin Van
Buren's own wotds:—
The Surplus Revenue.
"It is my firm conviction, that any sys
tem by which a distribution is made amongst
the states, of moneys collected by the feder
al government, would introduce vices into
the legislation of both government, produc
tive of the_ most injurious effects, as well up•
on the best intetests of the country as upon
the perpetuity of our political institutions.
1 sincerely hope, therefore, that the good
sense and patriotism of the American peo•
ple will PREVENT THE ADOPTION
OF ANY SUCH PLAN."
"It is now for the majority of the people
to decide whether the measure referred to
shall only be tolerated as a temporary ex
pedient, lbrced upon the country by a con
junction of extraordinary circumstances—
or, whether the distribution of the public do.
posites shall be the parent and forerunner
of FUTURE DISTRIBUTIONS of the
public revenue."
"I hope and believe that the public voice
WILL DEMAND, that this species of le
gislation shall terminate with the emergency
that produced it,—that early and EFFI
CIENT STEPS will be taken to prevent
the concurrence of a state of things calcula
ted to furnish ANY EXCUSE for any
MEASURE OF DISTRIBUTION."
.11. ran Buren.
This is not all! The same party,
whose Leaders . openly declare that if they
gain the ascendancy—if they elect a ma
jority to the Legislature and Convention,
cat Laws. Contracts and other Obligations
entered into between the Legislature and
People for years past, MALL BE NULLIFIED!
That the old system of EXTRAVAGANCE &
TAXATION shall again be resorted to; and
that no FREEMAN Who has the misfortune to
be poor, shall be allowed to send hib child to
school unless he first proclaims to the world
that he is poor—that he is a PAUPER!
Freemen of Adams! Can you permit
this? can you suffer 'such men to arise and
postrate all those interests, so valuable to
yourselves and your posterity? Go for
ward, then, orr TUESDAY NEXT, and put the
following ticket, headed by a Political
Judge, as It now stands, "UPSIDE DOWN!"

Kr A letter from a veteran Anti-Mason

We have assurance from all parts of the

that every man willdo his duty.
From FRANKLIN county we have every
encouragement. Public meetings have been
held by our friends in several of the town
ships and spirited resolutions passed, pledg
ing themselves to support their whole county
ticket with zeal and energy. Mr. M'Sherry's
vote in Franklin will be hlavy,and we should
not be surpriz..d if his majority over the
Political-Judge would fir exceed that three
years ago over the lodge.
In Dauphin, York, Lancaster, Cumber

Indeed, throughout the whole State it is
evident that we shall, ON TUESDAY
NEXT, bear down all the opposition of the
united forces of the Lodge, Fanny Wright
and Van Buren parties! The people have
declared that they will be freed from the
galling chains of the "New York Faction,"

GLORIOUS NEWS FROM MARYLAND!
The IN.glorious Nineteen VETOED by the
People 1
We have highly gratifying intelligence
from Maryland. That State stands forth
redeemed and disonthralled. The People
have pronounced a verdict on the conduct
of the inglorious Nineteen electors that will
consign them to merited infamy. It will
be remembered that at the election for elec.
tors which toek piece only a month ago, a
li&LACITY or 1641 VOTES was given in fa
vor of the Van Buren candidate in the city
of Baltimore. At the election which took
place on Monday last, the candidates of the
same party received a majority of LESS
THAN 300 vorEs; ex . /Outing a change in
favor of the Whig cau.ie the cause of Mw,

The Whigs have carried the city of An•
onpolis, and gratifying to announce—Sprigg
Harwood, one of the inglorious 19, not only
lost his election, but was the lowest on the
Ticket/
Our private letters :nform us that the
State is sound to the core. That the Van

the House of Delegates. That in short the
People have risen up in all their majesty
and power, and given a death-blow to the

The Nullifiers Rebuked by the Petite.
We have fuither highly gratifying intel
ligence from Maryland. That state is true
as steel to the glorious cause of the Consti•
tution and the Law': We yesterday gave
returns from Baltimore city, showing that
the patriotic freemen of that place had re
duced the Van Buren majority 1300 votes.
The intelligence from other parts of the
State is equally gratifying. In Frederick
county, the Whigs have carried every thing
before them. In Anne Arundel, where the
Van Buren candidate prevailed in Septem
ber by a overwhelming vote, the tables have
been turned. In Harford, where the ma
jority was nearly 200, the kV higs haye suc
ceeded in elecitng two of the candidates.
They have also carried their ticket in Kent;
and whore they have not succeeded in elect
ing candidates, they have greatly reduced
the majorities of their opponents. In short
—the State is safe. The People have pro
nounced a proper rebuke on the atrocious
conduct of the Nullifiers. The Baltimore
Chronicle of yesterday says,—"We feel
authorized to assure our friends abroad that
the vote of Maryland on the Presidential
election, is no longer matter of controversy.
Whatever prospect of success Mr. Van Bu
ren may have had, has been blasted by the
indiscreet and attrocious attempt of some
of his agents to invole the State in the hor
rors of revolution."--/bid:

"MARRIAGE EXTRAORDINARY!!"
MARRIED—In Scott county on the Sth inst.
by the Rev. —, Mr. Thomas W. Scott, a white
man, to Mien Adeline J. Johnson, a mulatto girl,
and reputed, or acknowledged daughter of the
Honorable R. M. JOHNSON, one of the Repre•
sentativen of the Slate of Kentucky, in the Con
gress of the United Staten."
A few days Mr. after Mr. Scott became
the happy husband of the fair and lovely
Adeline he was presented by her father, the
"good Colonel," with a fine tract of land
known as the "Blue Sprin Farm," for which
a deed has been regularly mode and enter.
rd on record in the office of the Clerk of
Scott county Court. The deed runs, to
Uhos. W. Scott, and Adeline J. Scott, his
wife jointly, their heirs, &c.
This is the second time the moral feel
ings of that portion of the people of Scott
county who possess such feelings, have been
shocked or outraged by the marriage of a
mulatto &tighter of Johnson to a while
man, if this mae who will so far degrade
himself as to become the subject and does
tenon of every person that has the least re•
gent for decy, for a little property, can be
considered a white man. About two veers
and a half ago, a Nit. D. Pence married
Imogene, Col. Johnson's eldest daughter ;
and, has been more recently the case, with
Mr. Scott, was soon after rewarded for his
degradation, by being put in possession of a
large farm and a number of slaves to culti
vats it.
How long will the people of Scott county
—of Kentucky—permit such palpable vie
lotion of the laws of their State to be com
mitted with impunity. How long will the
moral and religious part ofthe community
suffer such indecent and shocking examples
to be set for their sons and their rising gen
eration, before they put their veto upon
them?—before they consign to private life
at least, if not to infamy,. those who encour•
age such violations of the laws of God and
man? The laws of Kentucky forbid, under
heavy penalties, n white marrying a negro,
mulatto, or living with one in the character
of a man and wife. Why should Pence and
Scott nor he held amenable to the laws?—
W hat are the Grand Jury of Scott Co. about?
Are they not sworn to take cognizance of
all violations of the laws of the county, and
to present all whci commit them? Will they
suffer Pence and Scott to go unpunished be
cause they have become the son in-law of
Col. Johnson? We hope not—We hope to
see the supremacy of the laws of the country
maintained and persons high in nice should
be made to feel their weight."

that Mr. JOHN Stitoirn, formerly of this
place, has become a joint-partner with Mr.
Sterrett in the publication of that paper.
The Public Improvements.
The business doing upon the public im
provements exceeds the expectations of the
most sanguine. The main lines are all in
excellent order and filled with boats and cars
laden with passengers, merchandaze and
produce. The amount of toll already re
ceived during the present financial year, ex
ceeds seven hundred thousand dollars; and
is now swelling at the rate of about thirty
five thousand dollars a treek. The public
officers are prompt in action, vigilant and
attentive to their duties throughout, as eye-
Ty one acquainted with them testifies. The
filselfoods promulgated by the Van Buren
presses are as destitute of truth, as they are
of decency and morality. They are manu
factured out of their malice, and have not
one fact on which to base them. Their
own political friends where the corduct and
characters of the officers are known, do not
hesitate to condemn and reprobate the slan
ders put forth by their presses. They
avow a sense of degradation at the course of
their oracles.—Pean. Tel.

senger cars broke about midway between

about two years old, fell through the open

position across the railway, that the wheels
of the succeeding cars passed ever her head
and feet, killing her instantly—the child
was so much injured as to die in about two
hours afterward. A coloured man was
also thrown on the hack, in such a position
that the wheels of the cars passed over his
thighs, near the body, and he was so horri
bly mangled by the grinding of the wheels,
that he is probably dead at this time. One

Mr. Gibson. The feelings of the wretched
husband and father cannot be imagined,
much less depicted—his wife torn fern his
side and in one instant, stretched before him,

to render him the raving maniac that he
became.—Gazette.
HANOVER, October 4
A correspondent has furnished us with
some particulars of the death of a German
emigrant, residing near this borough, while
under the treatment of n person generally
known as the "Indian, Doctor," winch de.
serve some notice. His death, which took
place on Friduy last, created considerable
excitement among his friends, who gat her•
ed at different places in our town, and ap
peered, by the expression of their counto•
minces, to be laboring under faelings of
strong indignation. The individual refer
red to labored under severe rheumatic of
fections, and the doctor prescribed that he
should be laid on a bed and a bushel of
roasted oats applied to him for the purpose
of raising perspiration, with directions to re
new the heat repeatedly, to continue in the
oats bath from one o'clock in the morning
until seven in the evening, and leaving, for
drink, some wine and sassafras. About
fi►ur o'clock, while under this treatment, he
died, and was interred, on Saturday morn
ing, in the Lutheran burying ground, N-
I lowed by a number of his brethren who
have left their Fatherland to seek an asy.
lum among strangers.—Herald.
We have been reproached over and over
again with being n vain people, and per.
hops it may be true that we possess a godly
share of that first of blessings, a comfortable
opinion of ourselves, without which men and
nations seldom achieve greatness. But we
contend that we have done enough both in
arts and arms to excuse a little vain glory
now and then, and a guesscan be made from
the subjoined paragraph, which we find float
ing about, and to what we have effiwted and
intend to effect in medical science: "A doc
tor, in a North Carolina paper, boests that
he has discovered a system by which he
can make out of an old man an entire young
man, and have enough left to make a small
dog."
This is more than the enfeebled and aged
Ponce de Leon expected from the Wiled
fountains of Florida. He merely hoped to
be restored to the vigour and comeliness of
youth, and did not dream of asking that
enough should. be left to make anything in
addition to himself, were it only a kitten.—
It is a great misfortune to be born too soon,
and an equally lamentable circumstance that
we cannot, as Doctor Franklin desired, be
bottled up and kept fir any required time,
without being "deeded" in the process.—
When the system discovered by the doctor
aforesaid is perfectly matured by the lights
ofexperienee,men will doubt less live forever,
and every old gentleman, like the polypus,
will be convertible into as many young ones
ns may be thought fit: The march ofscience

Tim DECLINE OF LYNCH LAW.—We
are glad to observe the wholesome tone
which pervades the New Orleans papers on
the subject of the recent assault on Judge
Bermudez, of that city. There is no ill
timed sympathy for the lhte of the young
men who were The victims of their own
rashness. Their fate, fearful as it wasonay
well cause the most poignant anguish to
their friends; but none, except those bound
to them by the closest ties, can regret that
the a'tempt to commit an outrage of the
most lawless character recoiled upon those
who made it. This may seem strong lan
guage, and the immediate friends of the
deceased may regard it 113 heartless and
cruel; but it will be justified by all disinter
ested persons who have at heart the preser
vation ofthe laws, nod the order and well
being of society. The decision of Judge
Bermudez was unpopular in New Orleans
but, judging from 'the tone oldie papers in
that city, his conduct in defending himself
against personal violence is universally justi
fied. If the fife of a Judge is to be put in
jeepnr dy because his decisions are unpopplar
or even erroneous, the reign of anara
fins
already begun.--!-New York Times.

By the packet ship Erie, Capt..Funck
from Havre, the Editors of the New York
Commercial Advertiser have files of Paris
papers to the 25th of August, inclusive, hut
they add very little to our previous intelli
gence from the continent.
The advices from Spain are of a painfully •r!
interesting character. The constitution of •
1812 has indeed been proclaimed, but its •
proclamation seems to be every where at
tended with violence, tumult, anarchy and ,
bloodshed. The queen acts under the influ
ence of terror and all against whai the
diery and excited people bear animosity, uT
oblidged to fly for their lives. The ineWk .
hers of the lute cabinet have all soughtsafriliZ'S".—•..
ty in a perctpitate departure, or in
concealment. General Quesada, the comma `°
mandant of Madrid, has been assassinated:; _ : ,
by some of the National Guards.
The day previous to the proclamation of
the constitution, there was sharp fighting tn•
the streets of Madrid betwevn some of the
regular troops and parties of the National
Guard, in which Ooveral of the former were
wounded. The arrival of the queen and
regent from San lldefonso put an end to
these disturbances, but the existing state of_
tranquility was not expected to endure.
' There is nothing of moment from the
seat of war except an averment that the
forces of Don Carlos are suffering much .
from want of provisions, and that numbers
of them are leaving the ranks and return
in., to their homes in order to get in
harvest.
The quarrel between France and Switz
erland, or rather the canton of Basle, seems
to he growing serious. We are not advised
us to the origin and cupse of the difficulty,
which appears to be of an individual rather
than a national character.
Marshal Clause! was expected at Algiers
early in September, intending, it is said, to
prosecute the war with great vigor. Three
thousand French troops and ten thousand
Arabs were to be employed.
The cholera was still making progress in
Austria, Hungary, and Bohemia, but its
ravages are much less dreadful than in 1831.
In Lombardy it seems to have subsided.
LATEST FROM EUROPE.
The ship Ajax, Capt. Hiern, sailed from
Liverpool on the 25th of August, brings to
New Yolk London papers to the 24th.—
They contain nothing new of importance,
except a few items of intelligence from
Spain. .
Among these is nn onnouncemet of the
death of M. RAYNETAL, French Ambassa.. -
dor at Madrid until about two months since,
when he solicited his recall. It is said that
he will be succeeded by Marshal Mollor.
The Quean nod Queen Regent had re
turned from San Ildelonso to the capital,
where nil was tranquil. The Meeting of
the Cortes was to take place on the 20th of
August.
The Constitution of .1812 had been pro-
claimed at Valencia Ma bout di s t or t ) , ace.
By till- time it is no doubt in force thioUgh.

Navarre and the Basque provinces. There
had been som^ disturbances at Barcelona
but we have not the particular: 4 .
A telegraphic despatch states that en
the 17th, General LEBF:AII, the new com
mander of the' French Legion, attacked &
defeated the Cal lists, destroyed their works
at Engut, and took posession of their mag
azines.
The Courier de Lyons, of the 10th, says:

nounces that the son of Lucien Bonaparte,
who was imprisoned in the castle of St. An
gelo, has been secretly removed."

Exautisii : your Tickets!
We earnestly request our friends, one
ttnd all, 'to examine their tickets before de
positing them in the, ballot h.,x.
The Importance if the next
Election.
O::!rNEXT TUESDAY will probably decide
whether the Lodge or the People shall
ru l e .—Whether zt shall be monarch, and
they slaves; or they free and it prostrated.
NEXT Tut:so/r will determine whether
this State shall continue to he governed by
a Consti , ution and Laws, or be made the
sport of Anarchy and lawless Demagogues.
NEXT TUESDAY Will determine whether
lawles ruffians and profligate demagogues
shall he permitted to rob the people of their
rights, annul their charters, and destroy the
Deeds and Patents of their Lands, or not.
N FAT 'TUESDAY will decide whether the
present exemption from burdens shall be
continued tc the people; or whether .he
Surplus Revenue shall be nkcied, and the
people loaded with Taxes by the Mo'onic
Van Buren party.
- Never, since the existence of our present
Constituti , m, has Pennsylvania seen so im
portant a dayas NEXT TUESDAY.
Go, then, to the Polls, EVERY FREEMAN,
and crush this Masonic Conspiracy, through
the exorcise of that peaceful remedy, the
ballot box.
False inagnaninaity.
Or• Many very honest and patriotic men
forsake their own ticket, anti vote for some
one of their political opponents, because he
is a neighbour and a clever man.
This is a fatal error. Those very men
- possess political principles just as bad and
more dangerous than the most unpleasant
and unpopular man in the county.
Remember, we should vote for candidates
(1 account of the correctness of their poll
,:-4.1ies, not because they are kind neighbors.
Pod nn accommodating neighbor your
'tom or your axe, but do not give him your
Ir VOlO. You thereby injure your Ct,unt r y
— and betray your party. You thwart the
hopes, and paralize the exertions of your
friends.
Jon -Masonic Freemen! Go to the Polls!
O::rANTI- MASONS OF ADAMS COUNTY!
You are considered the text-book of our
principles—the sample of our purity. The
eyes of the whole State are upon you. Do
not disgrace your professions and your high
character, by negligence or treachery.—
You will not. Not a man among you, who
is able, but will go to the polls, and vote the
Anti-Masonic ticket throughout from Con
gressman to Sheriff and Coronerq. Vigi
.lance is necessary. Never was the Lodge
more active. Never did it exert itself
through more insidious or fraudful means.—
Let the Democratic Anti-Masons of Adam,.
County once more march to solid column to
TRIUMPHANT VICTORY!
The Sherillidiy.
Oz" - Some of our good friends and honest
Anti. Masons think that the Office ofSheriff
stands on a different footing from other
political offices, and are thereby induced to
cast: fiteit votes for a Jack or a Masonic
neighfiiittrl
In this, we talk, they commit a fatal
error. The Sheriff has more political in
fluence; and the opportunity of doing more
political gorod or harm, than any other offi
cer in the county. Far better lose our
Member of Congress or Assembly, than the
Sheriff:
But we shall lose neither. Anti-Maso ns
act too much from principle thus to be led
astray. "A word to the wise, is sufficient."

tint keep our mi;ustri-
ous friend.; from the election. Devote
NEXT TUESDAY to sowing the Seed of
Patnotism into the ballot-hoses. It is the
.4oiry seed-time of FREEDOM. It-will pro
7doce a goodly crop of National Pro9perity!
TO TIIF:
The Fanny Wright Cornytkr and its forty
Editors!
o:,'We desire to bavl but little contro
versy with this blue-light, speckled back
sheet. It is in the hands of men who have
sold themselves, body and breeches, to the
Fanny Wright and Dallas party; men who,
to please Martin Van Buren, would dance
upon the grave of their native and adopted
State! Else why this violent, uncalled for
dnd unnecessary opposition to the Public
Improvements of the State—and more than
all, of their own County? Let theni look
back to the' time of the formation of the
County, and ask themselves what part of
the millions paid in Taxes since that time,
by the Citizens of Adams has been expended
•n Public Improvements in this County.
Until within late years, we have received
comparatively nothinlr! And now, for
sooth, because much good has been done for
Old Adams through the agency of men po
litically oppescd to the "forty Editors" of
the Compiler, this good must he pro.trated
—torn from us, and the money sent to some
other county! Away with such vile tools
who would in truth "bite off their - nose to
spite their face!"
13(7 - The Poll-Tax Pole-Cuts of the Corn
piler lie mightily about the School Law
and the Poll-Tax! Will then be good
enough to inform the people whether they,
or any oilier person, have set been called
upon to pay any "POLL•TAX," great or
small, for school purposes?
OZ7 - The Major calls Mr. Penrose's letter
a "labored apology for the poll-tax law."
We guess the "apology" is not at all suitable
for the Major's palate. It shows the people
how the Major can imitate somebody else
in "fibbing!"
KTThe Major can't, for his life, get over
the Inspector's election! He says the tick
ets looked "yellow!" Whatever may have
been the color -of the people's tickets, they
trade the Major and his underst rappers look
pretty "BLUE!"
Oho ! Look Here !
Oz:rThe Major of the Compiler sass,
"The inspectors election went as formerly,
in this County, for the democracy [Mason
ry] as usual."
Was there ever n more brazen lie put
forth even in friend Jacob's time?
The proof, aleijor!
o;7"Faniay Wright's hopeful boy, the
Major, says the statement about Mr. Van
Buren's "English Carriage, Horses and
Servants," has often been refuted.
Now, Major, this must be something like
the tale about Old Adams going •'as usual
for the Democracy!!" Why, my dear sir,
the charge about Mr. Van Buren riding in
a splendid English Carriage, drawn by
beautiful English horses, and attended by
impudent, wellfed .English servants, has
been repeatedly made by papers under the
nose of his official pet, the Globe, and we
have yet to see its contradiction! Probably
Aristocratic Malty has told English Fanny
to till the Major to tell the people that—
it is not true! Well, but the people won't
believe any of you—they think you arefib
bing—"as asua I!"
O ) , -If the Major is so horror-stricken at
yellow tickets, how can he have the con
science to advocate the election ofa man to
the second highest office in the gift of a free
people, to whose yellow daughters he may
be called upon to introduce some of his fe
male friends!
o::TlUtike SHEFFER pretends to be op
posed to Slavery, and promises, if elected,
to vote for the abolition of Slavery in the
District. Judge Sheffer knows well enough
if he should be elected, of which there is no
danger, he would be compelled to vote as
Van Buren said, and it is well known that
he iq in favor of Slavery, as well as in favor
of prohibiting the circulation of Anti-Sla
very papers. This cannot be denied.
Seven Hundred Barrels of Corn were
recently destroyed by fire, in Elizabeth
city, N. C.—a disaster particularly to be
lamented, whet the crops of grain are short,
when the prices of bread stuff.; are error•
mous, and when all manner of eatables cast
more than ever before.
SUPREME Counr.—The indctment of the
slate of Rhode Island vs. Elij.th Ball, for
the murder of his wife, engaged the ntten•
Lion of the Court until 8 o'clock last eve•
ning, when the jury retired, and in about 10
minutes brought in a verdict of Guilty.
COVNTEY BANKS IN ENCLAND.—The
number of Joint Stock Banks established in
England and Wales, in April, May, and
June last, was no less than fifteen, two of
them having each about 750 partners;
whereas the whole number established from
1826 to 18:13, was Mil% thirty•four, and
f ro m 16:13 to I-36, thirty-two.
A stone coffin was recently discovered in
the church-yard of Hemel Hempstead, in
England, on the lid ~ fwhich is an inscripti..n
partly effaced by time, yet still stillicientl,
legible to prove it contained the ashes of the
celebrated OLfii, king of the %lercians, who
rebuilt the Abbey of SI. Alban's, and died
in the eighth century. The coffin is very
curiously carved, and altogether unique of
the kmd.
FOR TIIY ORTTYSBURCitI STAR APO BANNER
To Anti-Masons.
MIDDLETOI;:-I would . ask what
claim Judge.SnEFTER has to expect that
any of the Anti-Masonic or anti Van Buren
votes will be given to him.
,It is well known; that he has uniririnly
opposed the Anti-Masons; and to effect their
defeat, has mode use of every intrigue and
plan ihat was enrndered in the darkest
and deepest recesses of the Lodge and
brought forth by its emissaries, to secure
their power and aggrandizement by the
defeat of their opponents—no matter wheth
er true or fillse, the ends were always con•
sidered sufficient to justify the means! Nor
had they a more active, nor a more indus
trions tool in the State to hold out their
managed plans to the People, and urge
their support.
It is as well known, that he has, in tha
same manner, supported the present admin•
istration in opposing the United States Bank ,
and every other measure whether the oppo.
sition to the Senate—the division of the
Surplus Revenue, or any other step taken
by his favorite, an Buren! It is only ne
cessary for him to know that. Van is sup•
portini , it, to warrant his sanction of it! It
would have amused a party of Children to
see him, in his zeal against the Bank, rat.
fling a few pioces of Gold at an election,
and while looking at it, exclaiming, "that's
Jackson!"
If, under all these impressions and party
influences,'he be elected to Congress, and
the Presidential question come bet ire that
body, he will and must give his influence to
Martin Van Buren, in opposition to the
wishes of every Antimason and Anti Van
Burenite who had voted for bind I, then,
would say. do not deceive yourselves by
voting for him: but give your whole support
to JAMES McSIIERRY, who is of the
same opinion with yourselves on the most
interesting political measures that would
come before him in his Legislative cape
city.
Judge. Sheffer has expressed it as his
opinion, that every representative of the
~
people, in legislative duties, SHOULD
BE GOVERNED BY THE OPINION OE THE PAR
TY WHO ELECTED HIM; and said, that if he
should be elected, he would act in accor•
dance with that opinion ! ! !

on Friday lust, by cock crowing, wending
his way to the country with his saddle.bag.:
supposed to he filled with divers kinds of
LYING BILLS, SPURIOUS TICKETS,
and other nick nacks in his line! Beware
of him and his "notions." Although he
never "kilt no dead Ingens," yet he thinks
himself a ring-tail-roarer! No doubt to de
livering his "flannel sausages," he will en•
deavor to imitate the "Bull of Basilan"
in bellowing; but it will be -"no go.", He
cant "hold a candle" to the way in which
our friend Zephaniah "goes it!" If he at• •
tempts to pass any of his "spurious" tickets
and lying bills upon our friends, we hope
they will CARRY HIM OUT!

LATEST FROM EUROPE. --The New York
Journal of Commerce of yesterday says—
Just as we were getting our Evening Edi
tion to press, our news men came up from
the ship John Taylor, bringing us English
papers to August 30th.
They contain the important news of the
dissolution of the French Ministry on the
25th of August, in consequence of u differ
ence with the King on the question of a
Spanish intervention. All the members
retired except one.
The Kin. was opposed to intervention,
on the ground of a protest from the North-
ern Powers.
Two MORE NEW STATES, making twenty
eigt in all,are already begun to be talked of,
and their names are already given—lowa
and Wisconsin, at present comprised within
the newly formed Territory of Wisconsin.
This tract by the flood of emigration which
is pouring in there, already amounts to 50,
000, of which the lowa country contains 25
to 30,000. This latter lies west of the Mis
sissippi river, and is 450 miles in length,
including the head of the Mississippi, which
is technically called Itasca, ingeniously and
playfilly derived by the learned Editor of
the Grand Gulf (Missi.) Advertiser, from
!he latin words Ver•ltas (truth) and Caput
(head.) The same Editor adds:—“To the
west of the future state of lowa, others
soon be added, mid the child lives who will
travel through twenty states lying north of
the mouth of the Ohio, and west oft he Mis
sissippi, and containing 20,000,000 of be
inks, as yet unborn."—Poulson's Dot. Ad.
TIIE STOLEN MONEY FOUND.—The old
adage, "that murder will out," wus never
better illustrated, than in the case of the
robbery of New Haven. Mr. Asa G. Sand•
ford, who, it was stated, had $3,700 taken
out of his room in Exchange Place, and who
offered a handsome reward for its recovery,
was arrested, with two accomplices in
Bridgeport, to which place they had do.
camped on Wednesday on suspicion of
having robbed himself. They were bound
over in the sum of $lOOO each, to . answer
to an indictment for conspiracy to defraud.
Part of the .lost money was fiund on Mr.
Sandford. This robbing one's own pocket
hardly ever answers--the thief is almost
always detected. This taking out of one
pocket and putting into the other, for the
purpose of cheating the unsuspecting credi
tor, is a 'species of swindling, which makes
the culprit liable to a fine and imprison
ment.

dated September 19th, communicates the
particulars ofanother eng agement with the

which the lattep s were - routed and driven to

then the left, and made two charges upon
the Artillery, but were beaten elf, at all
points. The action lasted one hour and a
half. No Indians were found dead, hut from
the traces of blood, many must have been
killed and wounded. No whites were killed,
and but five wounded, one mortally.—Bait.
