THE ROBBERY OP THE FREDERICK
COUNTY DANK.
QRAAT Bait- Rommtv.--We learn by
the this morning that the Frederick
County Bank, at Frederick, 51d., has just
been robbodrifuPwards of one hundred and
eighty ire thousand dollars, in specie,
notes and other valuables. A REWARD
OF .TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS is
offered for the recovery of the money and
the detection of the robber. The thieves,
it appears, conveyed away in gold the
amount of$10,010; in notes and bills of
other banks and checks, $9,788; in notes
et the Frederick co. bank, $134,967; State
6 per cent. bonds $6,000; State 6 per cent.
certificates $14,000; 6 per cent. sterling .
bonds 812,222; making in the aggregate
$185,976. Ate meeiing of the President
and Directors of the bank yesterday it was
resolved to offer a reward 01 . 810,000 for the
recovery of the money, or proportionately
for a part and the detection of the thieves.
We learn that the key done
,of the doors
of the Bank was found yesterday in a
creek about a hundred yards from the build
ing, and a dark lantern was found upon a
bridge in the vicinity.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
The Frederick Examiner of Wednesday morn
ing last gives the following particulars of this im• .
•mcnse robbery:—
.The Bank was entered, it ie thought, on
Saturday night. A key was found in the
creek, near the city milt, on Sunday morn
ing. A dark lantern of rude construction
was also found. The key was filed off end
filled up till it was made to fit tho lock of the
exterior door of the bank quite as well as
the key which belonged to tt. The lamp
does not seem as if it had been the produc
lion of a workman, and looks as if it had
been in service before.. We understand
that two men were seen taking a box to the
corner of the bank and seating themselves
upon it, fur the purpose doubtless, of keeping
watch while the robbers were progressing
with their work. A spur with the strap
broken was found in the vault.
The progress of the robbers was obstruc
ted by seven locks, some of them of the most
simplex construction. The street door
must have been entered some time since,
and the villiane have been at work, doubtless,
for some weeks in discovering the secret
springs of the three locks in the outer door
of the vault, and in taking impressions for
the purpose of making suitable keys.
All the contents of the iron chest in the
•vault were taken without any discrimina
tion—including some of the issues of the
Frederick corporation, notes that were laid
aside as unfit for use in consequence of be
ing worn out, dm. Of the silver, none of
which was in the chest, they took but ten
dollars.
This is one of the boldest and largest rob
beries that we have ever heard of, and the
excitement and commotion which it has
caused in our quiet town is such as we have
never seen here before.
Persons and handbills have been des
patched in various directions, for the pur
pose of effecting the apprehension of the
rubbers. Many persons suspect, and there
are circumstances which justify the suspi
cion, that the robbers have gone to the south
west. It would be well that the police in
that and in all directions should keep a care
fal look out.
• The doors of the bank were immediately
closed upon the , detection of the robbery.—
The capital paid in was 8175,000, and the
amount of funds of every description • taken
is a few thousand dollars morethan the cap
ital paid in.

"TEE GUILLOTINE AT Wonx."—The
poor feds are raving at the loss of their
•'spoiler and their moanings are heard
throughout the land. The most gross and
inconsistent charges are recklessly dealt out
against the adininjstration, and the whole
odium of the system of removals is sought
to be directed against the new dominant
party. The National Administration has
recently exposed the injustice of those at
tacks, and proves that locofocoism is not to
be beaten in the use of the political guillo•
tine, when it is in power. It shows that
within a few months of the first year of the
Jackson Administration, persons were re
moved, in ninety-nine cases of a hundred,
merely on aceount of , their political senti
ments, from a host of offices, of which the
following is , but a partial enumeration: that
is to say— •
Firraart Ministers Plenipotentiary,Char

• Besides these•direct removals from office
by the Executive, there was a host of re
movals of such persons os held office by
secondary appointments, such as clerks,
inspectors, &e, in the Custom-House whom
we have no means of numbering. We
tom a statement before us, however, which
may afford the reader some idea of the ex ,
tent of those removals. In the Custom ,

persons employed in different capacities,
forty were removed! In all, there were

TOTER EDITOR!) OP TEE STATE OP PEN N.
,
SYLvArnA.---Stepping into the Capitol a few
days since in order to see our members,
they appear to be a -very respectable body
of men. Looking a little more minutely,
I came to the conclusion thavevery member
of both houses was dressed in English broad
cloths or foreign fubricks. If this is a fact,
how much did it take to equip tlich mem•
her? both houses consisting of 133 mem
bers; say on an average $lOO, making
$13,000.
However, whatever the precise amount
may be, the gentlemen members sent it to
foreign countries; instead of encouraging
Pennsylvania and her factories. Members
who thus decorate themselves at the ex
pense of the State I Does' the act render
them more economical, more fit or compe
tent to make pure, w:tolesome, domestic,
Pennsylvania Laws?
What a contrast between our members
and Qunon Victoria's Mother, respecting
national integrity. She, making a present
of a cradle quilt to her grand daughter, ex
clusively of English manufacturing—our
members, their clothing, must be of foreign
manufacturing I
Therefore, for the honor of the state and
the integrity of the people, it is to be ho
ped that no member will ever appear in
the legislative halls, dressed in English
broad cloths or foreign tobricks.
These remarks do not only apply to the
members of the Legislature, but also to
nine•tenths of the people of the State. All
encouraging foreign countries just by wear
ing their broad cloths, in preference to our
own.
When standing before the ease adjusting
these foreign fabricks upon our person,
if we only had Pennsylvania blood in the
body thus decorated, we would shrink back
with indignation at the injury we have
done and are still inflicting on the country
which we are bound by every tie of honor
and gratitude to support.
In order therefore to retrace our steps
and to come out heart and hand for our
country, let us form ourselves into a grand
society, that is, every man, and woman,
boy and girl, within the pale of the State,
to be a society within themselves for the
promotion of domestic industry of every de
scription.
The imports of cloths amount to about
eight millions yearly; this is truly deplore•
ble, lamentable, that we men, citizens of
the United states, should so far forget our
love of country us to pay eight millions
yearly for our clothing, instead of aiding
our own factories which are languishing
for want of our assistance. As the last fir
ty years of government ended with Decem•
ber, 1840, let us commence the present
fifty years as real friends of the country by
using domestic clothing, instead of foreign
—and to live within our income.
The imports of silks, on an average, a
mounts to about sixteen millions yearly.—
The Ladies are patriotic and possess too
much love of country not to retrace their
steps, and lend their aid, which is very
powerful, in lowering the imports and fur.
thering domestic industry. The day is
not far distant when our ladies wilt be more
engaging, and more attractive in their do
mestic calicoes, than those in their costly
French, Italian, or English silks. Why
should it not be so? The former supports
their country, the latter supports foreign
countries. And it is to be hoped that the
day is not far - distant when our ladies will
dress in domestic silks, and appear more
engaging and lovely than they ever did in
there of foreign production.
Agreeably to the late census, Pennsylva
nia contains 1,700,560 human beings.—
Now suppose each only costs 810 for for.
eign fabrieks, the amount yearly would be
17 millions! Were we only faithful to our
own State, and keep this amount of money
among our own people, in a few years it
would not be POOR PENNSYLVANIA! but it
would be _PENNSYLVANIA AGAINST TIIE
WORLD!
The two oindidates tor the highest office
n the State, which succeeds, will for the
honor of the State and his own integrity,
take the oath of office in a domestic suit or
clothes, manufactured on some of the neigh
boring creeks.
Never was there in any age more union
of sentiment, more concert of action, than
is evinced by the citizens of Pennsylvania
in favor, of foreign factories and mechanics.
From tho highest citizen to the lowest,from
the richest to the poorest, from , the father
to the son, from the.mother to the dough.

who can wear the finest foreign fabricks
and send the most money to the subjects of

'These Kings and • Queens, especially
Queen Victoria, must laugh in their sleeves
and would laugh out loud, was it not against
their interest to do so, at our credulity.
No General had .his army better trained
than they have us, in their favor, and

Let us then my fellow citizens throw ofl
tho foreign yoke, and come out boldly as
Pennsylvanians each of us determined t..)
buy no more foreign goods._ Listen not to
others, but do your own duty; consequent

• HEAR THOMAS JRFFERION.-Iti 1801,
Thomas Jefferson succeeded to the Presi
dency on the overthrow of John Adams.
Hi found the offices of the Federal Gov
ernment almost entirely in the hands of the
Federal party—not placed there, as in the
case of the Van Buren incumbents, by Pro
scription, but la the natural course of things.
The Government had up to that time been
in Federal hands; it had naturally chosen
its subordinates mainly from the ranks of
its supporters, while those among them who
wore selected anterior to the distinct for
mation of parties, or afterward with regard
to other than party considerations, had very
generally accorded with tl•eir superiors in
political sentiment and action. There was
no pretence that the Federal Administra-
tion had then, as now, removed the former
incumbents in order to give a monopoly of
office to :heir supporters. Such were the
circumstances under which Mr. Jefferson
came into power, and he proceeded to re
move some of the Pectoral incumbents of
office and fill their places with Democrats.
Among the instances of such change was
that of the Collector at New Haven, Conn.
The Federalists of that town presented a
strong remonstrance against the change.—
Mr. Jeffsrson replied to it as follows:—.N.
Y. Tribune.
45When'it is considered that during the
late Administration those who were not of
a particular sect of politics were excluded
from all office when, by a steady pursuit of
this measure, nearly the whole offices of
the United States were monopolized by that
sect; when the public sentiment at length
declared itself, and burst open the doors of
honor and confidence to those whose opin
ions they more approved; was it to bo im
agined that this monopoly of office was
still to be continued in the hands of tho mi
nority? Does it violate their equal rights
to assert some rights in the majority also?
It is political intolerance to claim a proper•
tionate share in the direction of the public
affairs? Can they not harmonize in socie
ty unless they. have every thing in their
own hands? If the will of the nation, man-
ifested by their various elections, calls for
an administration of government according
with the opinions of those elected; if, for the
fulfillment of that: will, displacements are
necessary, with whom can they so justly
begin as , with persons appointed in the last
moments of an Administration, not for its
own aid, but to begin a career at the same
time with their successors, by whom they
had never been approved, and who scarcely
expect from them a cordial corporation?
"If a due participation of office is a mat
ter of right, how are vacancies to be obtain.
ed? Those by death ore few; by resigna
tion none. Can any other mode than that
of removal be proposed? This is a painful
office. But it is made my duty, and I moot
it as such. I proceed in the operation
with deliberation and inquiry, that ►t' may
injure the best men least, and affect the
purposes of justice and public utility with
the least private distress; that it may be
thrown as Much as possible, on delinquency
on oppression, on intolereneo, on ante-revo
lutionary adherence to our enemies.
The remonstrance la ments"that a change
in the Administration must produce a
change in the subordinate officers," in oth
er words, that it should be deemed necessa
ry for all officers to think with their princi
pal. But on whom does this imputation
bear? On those who have excluded from
office every shade of opinion which was not
theirs? Or on those who have been so exClu
did? I lament sincerely that unessential
differences of opinion should ever have been
deemed sufficient to interdict hall the socio•
ty from the rights and the blessings of self
government, to proscribe them as unworthy
of every trust. It would have been to me
a circums'ence of great relief bad I found a
moderate participation of office in the hands
of the majority. I would gladly have left
to time and occident to raise them to their
just share. But their total exclusion calls
for prompt corrections. 1 shall correct the
procedure: but that done, return with joy to
that state of things, when the only question
concerning a candidate shall be, Is he hon
est? Is he capable? Is he faithful to the
constitution?"

were lost, a number of horses were either
killed or scalded, belonging to the plaintiff
for the recovery of the value of which the
suit was instituted. The 'defendants were
the owners of the boat, and although • neith•

court held them responsible for the Itegli•

tiring for a few moments returned a verdict
of 82,500 damages for the plaintiff. The
Bee adds, "this is a most righteous verdict,
and it is to be hoped will be followed up by
similar suits in like circumstances.' if the
principle is once acted upon by one or our
juries of making owners • liable for the ea)

THE Comastop; AT SEA —We noticed,'
yesterday. in 'a short paragraph from the
PhiludelphieSentinel, the collision it Sea
of the packet ship Susquehanna with some
other large vessel, off the Banks of Nnw
foutullanch on .the Sth Inst., at 4 o'clock
a. m. The injury to the Susquehanna is
•
very great. The Philadelphia 'North A
merican says .that she had • literally been
rescued from the jaws of the great deep.—
The morning the collision occurred was
not dark, but the sea was running high,and
the vessels did not discover each other un
til the moment of the collision. The Sus•
quehanna's bowsprit is taken offclean, and
the cut-water torn and wrenched from the
ship in a way which shows the encounter
must have been tremendous. She was
running at the rate of nine knots and ship
ping seas constantly at the time.. The im.
pression on board the Susquehanna is, that
the blow was so hard and so near the cen
tre of the other ship, that she must have
been totally disabled, if not stove in, caus
ing her to sink immediately. After the
collision, she slowed round and grated past
tho Susquehanna, with such rapidity, that
no opportunity was given to discover who
she was or the extent of her injuries. The
impression on board is, that she woe en
East Indinman, or some ship of the largest
class, and as the cut water of the Susque
hanna is taken otflow down, she was upon
the . top of a sea at the moment of the colli
sion. Consequently the other ship must
have suffered the more severely.

KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE
That Gov. Porter promised to sign the
Relief Btll if ten loco foco members of
the House would vote for it
That ten of them signed a written pledge
to do so, which they afterwards violated by
voting against the bill, thus encouraging
the Governor to veto it.
That after ho had ietoed it, he induced
thirteen of his friends to vute for it, and
several others to dodge the question, so
that it became a law withciut his signature,
by the Constitutional majority.
That from these evidences, there is not
a particle ofdosbt that he was warmly in
favor of the bill but had not the "nerve" to
sign it, and' therefore threw the responsi
bility of passing it on his friends.
That Porter's expenses have been ONE
HUNDRED AND EIGHT THOU
SAND EIGHT HUNDRED DOLLARS
per annum more than Ritner's.
That the State debt has been increased
from twenty four millions, TO FORTY
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS since Por
ter was elected Governor, being at the rate
of EIGHT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
PER ANNUM I
That the Legislature has been obliged
to resort to the most burdensome taxation
under which any people ever groaned, to
pay the interest on this alarming debt, and
prevent the credit of the State from being
absolutely annihilated.
That if Porter should be reelected and a
Legislature willing to carry out his extra
ordinary schemes (4 expenditure, at the end
of his second term, at the rate the public
debt has increased for the last two years,
it would be about SE VENTY MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS, or four hundred dollars

every taxable inhabitant. •

TUE FRUITS Or • THE Son..—The statis-

United States, possess lumber to the value
ofupwards 0f811,000.000 which with brick
and stone elan incalcUlahle amount consti•
lutes the materials for their dwellings. The
income of their orchards which grow
around these dwellings is upwards of
86,000,000 in value. They had more
than 26,000,000 pounds of wool to convert
into broadcloths, blankets, hosiery, 4ic.,
with which to shelter their persons from
inclement weather, more than 100,000,-
000 pounds of couon to manufacture into
various useful and necessary 'garments,
and more than 300,000 pounds of silk for
elegant and fancy dresses. The amount of
their flax and hemp united was nearlyl,ooo,-
, 000 tons.
For the food that was to sustain and now
' ish them, they had, the last year, more
than 73,000,000 of bushels of wheat, equal
to more • than 14,000,000 of barrels of
wheat flour, a rare article with • those men
who subdued and settled this domain. They
had also more than 17,000,000 bushels of
rye; upwards of 6,000,( 00 bushels of buck.
wheat, and. 3,000,000 bushels of' barley.—
The value of the poultry that strolled about
the yards and enclosures, was more than
$9,000,000. The number of swine was
upwards of 20,000,000, and 'the number of
sheep more than 19,000,000.
These people of the United States had
the last year, more than 317,000,000 bush
els of Indian corn, more than 90,000,000
bushels of waffles, and upwards of 13,.
000,000 neat cattle, which furnished they'
with milk, butter, and cheese, &c., to the
value of more than 813,000,000. They
had at.their command the labor of services
of more than 3,000,000 of horses and mules,
and upwards of 106,000,000 bushels of
oats, and 9,000,000 tons of hay, on which
to feed these and their other cattle. To
sweeten whatever seemed acrid or bitter to
the taste, they had more than 280,000,000
pounds of sugar. Their land yielded to
thorn for their indulgence, morn than 77,-
000,000 pounds of tobacco, and upwards
of 270,000 gallons of wino with which to
cheer their hearts. Such is the income of
ieir soil only; and yet they are over head
in debt. The public debts alone, in a time
of profound peace, are estimated at near
$200,000,000. Surely there must have
been a very bad calculation somewhere.—

A PAINFUL SCENE IN FLORIDA.-A cor
reipondent of the New York Herald, wri•
ting from Jacksonville, East Florida,under
date of the 15th inst., furnishes the follow
ing painful sketch:
"Day before yesterday, a party of In'
dians, who, it appears, ha d been lurking in
the vicinity, attacked a house of William
Barber, on Brandy Branch, about 85 miles
from this, and after killing Mr. Barber, by
shooting him twice through the body,
scalped him, and then stabbing him a num
ber of times stripped him of his clothes,and
left him dead. His wife was at a little dis•
tance from the house, at the cow•pen, about
to milk her cows, when the report of the
rifles startled her, and loooking up she saw
a young Indian within the distance of 20
feet of her, standing on a log, with his gun
trailing in his hand. She sprang towards
her husband, and the young Indian did not
molest her, though he could have killed her
on the spot. Her husband seeing her
come into danger, begged of her for God's
sake to save herself by flight; for said ho,
"I am done; save yourself and 'your chit.
dren." She did fly, and as she turned
away from the partner of her joys
,and son •
rows on earth, he fell back on the ground,
his hand grasped convulsively some , pine
straws on the ground, and his spirit sped to
God that gave it.
"By this time tho Indians were in the
house, and were plundering 'it' of whatever
they could carry off, when a little daughter
of Mr. Barber rushed in among them, and
seizing hor infant brother' that was left by
its inother.when she went out, she hurried
offiq triumph with the iiin'ocent in her tiros.
The Indians did not see hei—nor the infant
till she had it already outside tho door; one
of them gave a horrid yell and commanded
her to stop, but fear only lent her wings to
fly for, safety, and the savage was too
greedy for plunder to follow. Mrs. Bar
tier, with , her children; hastened away
from the scene 'of danger, and soon met
four men who were coming to this place,
and who returned to the house, which the
Indians had just left. They fiaind the
body of Mr. Barber, in the situation as be
fore related, and after assisting in its' burial
they came on to town, and from .one of
them, whose clothes were then wet with
the blood of the •murdered victim, I had
these pagiculars to-day. [-le also gave me
the full history of the murder of M r. Daniel
Green by the same party, lit 'the same
time, about three miles from the house of
Mr. Barber. It is only a repetition of what
I. have already written, and forbear; 1
have already written enough. ' Day' after
day the same sad tales are repealed, but
there are none to help us in distress. All
the volunteers are disbanded and sent home
(if they can bo said to have homes) with

bufor to each number.
THE present volume' commences with
two Steel Engravings by A. L.. Dick. Sun
day Morning and the Sale of the Pet Lamb.
Also, a beautiful coloured Pashion Plate.
This is an outlay for Embellishments un•
ptecedented in this or any other country.
The great beauty of the pictures will give
pleasure to every lover of the beaUtiful, and
it shell always be our aim to. procure such
subjects for the engraver as Will, even With
out the poetical illustration, tell their own
tale. While thus giving attention to that
which pleases the eye, we will show that
equal attention has been paid to catering for
the mind.
Mrs, L. H. 'Sigourney, who has lately
returned from Europe, has made such ar
rangements as will ensure us a supply of
articles from the best Female Writers of
England.
Mary Russell Milford, Mrs. S.
Maria Edgeworth, (their first contributions
to an American periodical,), will each con
tribute to the Ladies' American Magazine;
from the two last we now have articles on
hand. The Hon. Mrs. Norton will alSo be
a contributor.
While from abroad we are receiving such
assistance as will serve to make an agreea
ble variety, we must not forget to mention
that we are now publishing an article from
an eminent writer of our own country—the
author of 'Losiiig and Winning,' and 'Sen
sibility.' This tale we are certain will
cause as great a sensation as did the pub
lishing of "Losing and Winning,"• which
was republished in half, the papers of our
country.
Let it not be forgotten that Miss Leslie
contributes to the Lady's Book only. No
other Magazine has articles from her pen.
She commences in this No. another of those
graphic sketches that give so much pleasure
to our readers, "Leonilla Lynmore."
While paying a proper tribute to the great
talents of the English ladies previously men
tioned, be it remembered that we have our
own Halo, Sigourtvoy, Leslie, Parsons, Ent
bury, Hontz, and a host of others, to men.
lion which we havo neither time nor space.

breed—is well .worthy the attention of the tax.-
pa:ying community:—.•
MEofyi. F.DITORS:—I want you to pub
fish the following facts: Seventy tnembeis
of our Legislature addressed the people of
r eno gyivaniu on the .5111 lust., and state from
the public records ihrkthe Canal Commis
Siouers had given 9,040 dollars for ropes for
inclined planes; *hen they had the offer of
having them supplied for 7,877 dollars. It
became necessary to , relay eleven miles of
rail road near our city, it was in unques
tionable proof that this work might have
been done for 36,000 dollars; it was done at
a cost of 54,580 dollars, for reasons nc.doubt
as patriotic as those that regulated the pur
chase of ropes. For grubbing and clearing
two contractors offer to do it fur 350 dollars;
Jno. Mitchell charged 700 dollars, and has'
the contract for rock excavation. TWJ
contractors offer at 30 cents; Mitchell has
it at 48 cents. For common excavation be
low water two contractors offer, one at 20
cents and one at 24 cents; Mitchell has it
at 33 cents. For good earth embankments
ono contractor offers 19 cents, another 17
cents, Mitchell has it for 30 cents. As I
don't want to tire your readers I will refer
them to the address itself, published in the
United States Gazette on the 7th inst. In
addition to the above proofs, an iron master
in Franklin county offered to supply a quan
tity ofcast iron chairs for laying the rails
on the road at $35 per ton; this ho was in
duced to do as he was in blast and had no
other business at that time, and in order to
keep his hands employed he made this low
offer, but did not get the job; and last win
ter being in Harrisburg he mode inquiries
to see how it was that he had not got the
contract, and found that the contract was
given to W. Cameron at $9O per ton. As
these things are all matter of record, is it
not high time that the people should know
why it is and who it is that has been rob
bing them? Now I leave the matter en
tirely to the candid reader and tax payer.
and ask him if he can support a set of men
in office who are disposed to rob the people
in this manner. I am no politician; my
object is that the people may know who is
daily cheating them out of their money.
CANDIDATES.-Our Locoloco brethren
have already four candidates for the Presi
dency in the field—Commodore Stewart,
Mr. Van Buren, the Hon. James Buchanan,
and Chief Justice Taney.

REMAINS or GEN. Hennisori.—A letter
from Cincinnati says:—Judge Burnett, Col.
Todd, and John Scott Harrison, will leave
here on the 3d or sth of June, for Wash
ington, to bring on the. remains of General
Harrison. They expect to remain at Wash
ington some eight or ten days.
ANOTHER Stox.—The Carlisle Volun
teer is out against Cum. Stewart, and bays
ho was "before the public in 1838, as the
rival of Mr. Van Buren and the supposed
enemy of the Sub-Treasuri."
ANOTHER HONORABLE FOIWER.—The
Honorable Asa Child, of Norwich, lately
President of the Norwich and Worchester
Railroad Qotimany, has absconded with
about e 40,000, obtained from that institu
tion by peculation and forgery. He was
last seen in Philadelphia en route it was
supposed for Texas. He was appointed
District Attorney of Connecticut by Gen
era! Jackson; and was a candidate for Van
Buren Elector of President last fall. In
alluding to this circumstance . the Tribune
of this morning says--" Our neutral and
locofoco journals are most vociferous in
cackling over the villany and disgrace of
Mitchell, because he was once trusted by
the Whigs, but they have nothing to say of
Child's notorious rascalities. Perhaps
they do not consider it so wonderful that a
locofoco dignitary should prove a rascal as
they would if he were a Whig. How is
thisr
IL MOST DISTRESSING DISASTER. —The
Quebec Gazette of Monday week last con
tains the following account of an occurrence
in that city, by which eight houses were
destroyed and many lives lost:
A most distressing accident occurred
this' morning at about eleven o'clock; a
large mass of Cape Diamond, with the wall
from the Governor's garden to the .base of
the Citadel, gave way, and buried under
masses of stone and earth the houses in
Champlain street, opposite the Custom
House. , About 8 buildings in all are de
stroyed. Part of the inmates were at work,
but it is supposed that between twenty and
thirty persons were in the houses. Thir
teen dead bodies have been taken from the
ruins. Some were alive and sent to the
hospital. The military are assisting in re
moving the rocks and earth and searching
the ruins.
A LETTER FROM COBS. STEWART.— ft will
be remembered that Commodore Charles
Stewart was nominated to the Presidency,
a few days since, by the Old Ironsides
Club of the city and county of Philadelphia.
A committee was appointed to apprize him
of the tact, and iel the Pennsylvanian of
yesterday, we find a long letter from the
gentleman who has been thus honored, in
reply. Ho avows himself a Democrat of
the Jefferson and Jackson school, and says
he is the firm, consistent and devoted friend
of equal laws, equal rights, political, civil
and religious liberty. He returns his ac
knowledgements for the distinguished pre
ference, but expresses a hope that before
,the assembling'of National Convention,,
his follow, citizens may be able to present
a name mere worthy of the high distinc
tion., •In short, the gallant Old Comm
lore will consent to be the candidate, pro-
vided he shall receive the nomination of
our Loco Foco friends, when assembled in
National Convention. His letter is a very
fair specimen of political prefeiston, and
will do its author no harm. It appears to ,
us, however, that this agitation of Presi
dential polities is entirely premature. The
people have had quite enough of this busi-
ness for the last year , or two, and they need '
tepoee.—Phila. lnq.
DREADFUL SHIPWRECK-149 Lures
LOST.-It again becomes our duty to record
a calamity involving destruction of human
life to an awful extent. Four of the crow
and four of the passengers of the brig Min
strel, Captain Ontertindgei arrived here
yesterday, bringing the disastrous intelli
gence of which the following is an accurate
summary:.
The Minstrel left Limerick, Ireland. on
the 21st April last for Quebec, with one
hundred and forty-one passengers, emi
grants intending to settle in Canada. The
vessel had a tolerable passage up to Tues
day last, at four o'clock in the morning,
when she struck on Red Island Reef
There was a heavy sea running at the
time, but the boats were launched and
made fast to the fore chains. Upwards of
one hundred passengers embarked in the
boats, but their doom was quickly sealed;
the vessel "heeled or into deep water and
went down stern foremost, so suddenly that
the "painters" of the boats could not be
cast off, and the people who had embarked
in the boats perished, with their equally
unfortunate companions on board the ship
except four of the crew and four passengers,
who alone of upwards of 150 souls, remain
ed to tell the sad tale. These eight per
sons had embarked in the gig, which was
lowing astern, and fortunately for them,the
rope which attached it to the vessel broke
when she went 'down. They succeeded
in pulling to White Island, where they re
mained until the following day, when they
were takenioifby ship %V illington, m 'ln ty re /
and brought to Grose Isle.
Capt. Outerbridge, of the unfortunate
Minstrel, behaved most .gallantly during
the awful scene, until he perished with the
rest. He declared that ho would not leave
the vessel until his passengers were saved,
and he was the last person seen by those
who were in the gig.
Following is a statement of the number
of the crew and passengers who perished:—
Crew—Capt. Outerbridge, mite and 9
othere. Passengers—Male adults, 47; fe
male do, 41; males under 14, 10; females
do, 6; males under 7,9; females do, 12; in•
rants, 10. Total perished, 149.—Qacbec
Mercury, May 22.
A TAX PAYER.
• THE Fisnmuss.—The mackerel fishery
has for several year 4 been so ur,secessful,
that it will probably he abandoned in a.
great measure, before long. The entire
catch of Massachusetts last year, was only
50,000 barrels, having been gradually
eimished since 1631, when it was 363,.
000 barrels. In Portland, were 45,000
barrels have been packed in a • single sea
son—there were but about 500 barrels pack
ed last year.
The cod fishery is so uncertain, both
from scarcity of fish and low
,pricee, that
unless they had the bounty-• to rely upon,
it would be abandoned, as the vessels now
in existence would wear cut or be lost.—
The French and • English pay a mach
higher bounty to their fishermen than the
United states does, and hence tiro fish of
those nations is sold in the markets at low
er prices Ang i ft v tmerican fisherman is
able to compete wdu. The cost of carry
ing on the cod fishery found to average
about 8100 a season, for leads, lines, nets,
knives, salt and provisions to each man em
ployed.
It is estimated that a vessel in the cod
fishing, will take, on an average, seven
quintals of fish, when dried and fit for mar
ket, per ton, and will use nine bushels of
salt, per ton, on an average. Large ves
sels will use more, and small ones less--
The earnings of a man for a season will
average from 850 to 875 clear of expenses
of living--IVewbursiport Her.

letter writer says:—"The general position
of affairs in this country is, prosperous and

favorable—the , bullion account continues
good. The falling off in the revenue will
perhaps increase the luxes, bin there is
abundant means to replace it, and their re ,
lotions with all the world are , pacific or ap
proaching to it."
In atioiher part of his letter the writer
excepts the Manufacturers, who are said to
be In a deplorable condition.
"TOE WAY OF THE TRANSGRESSOR is

charged with the murder of Professor Da

The expenses of the funeral of Napoleon
exceeded t he estimate and money granted by .
£12,000; 20,000 are asked in addition, for
a monument to the Emperor within the

granted for the fetes of July.
IMPORTANT DECISION ON Srdiv,cnv.--..At
the recent term of the Supreme Court of
Ohio—Judges Lane and Pitchcock on the
Bench—Judge Lane delivered the opinion
of the Court on a - slave case as follows:
"That it the owner of a stave voluntarily
bring him icto this State, or permit to
come, although it should be only tor the
purpose of visiting or travelling through
from another State to another,' the slave in
each cases becomes a freeman the moment
he touches the soil of Ohio.
A young man lately committed to the
jail of Rockingban county (Va.) charged
with the murder of - hit father, has been
tried by an examining court in Harrison
burg and acquitted. The Register says
'This horrible atrair, the killing of a father
by his son,wat the result of a drunken frolic,
in which father, mother, and eon were all.
engaged! The father, it appears made an
attack upon the son, who repelled the as
senat by striking a blow with a hoe, which
stove in his parent's 'skull and laid him
dead at his feet ! The young man has
been acquitted by the lawasf his country;
but remorse and anguish anal ur.d will tor

• Tn E ST. Lome, TRAGEDy. —We have
already, says the Baltimore Sun of yester
day, noticed that A negro named Brown has
been arrested at Cincinnati: and taken to
St. Louis, and arraigned as one of the mur
derers of Baker and Weaver. At. the last
accounts he was in prison at St. Louis,
awaiting a trial, with the whole . people
much exited against him. By.the Southern
mail of last night, we have rceived a New
Orleans Bulletin of the 19th inst., from
which we learn that a negro named Brown
has been arrested in that city, and has con
fessed to his participation in the horrid tra.
gedy. But hear the , Bulletin—.
4. We are authorised by the Recorder of
the Second Municipality of this city to state,
that the real and identical Brown that was
engaged in that horrible tragedy, is now
confined in the Municipality jail, and has
been there for more than a week. Brown
was arrested on another charge, but subse
quent investigation excited suspicion of his
being one of the St. Louis murderers,whon
he made a minute and. circumstantial con•
fession of the whole affair, to the Recorder.'
It was perpetrated by Madison, Warwick,
Ennis, Seward and himself; Madison and
Warwick killing the men."
It will be a horrible business• if the Cm.
cinnati Brown should be convicted and
hung, an innocent man, while the ,real cul.
prit remains untried..
A Iliarnr Sotnren.—Ever. since Sack
Falstaff commanded his company with but
two shirts between them, we believe it has
been the fashion to consider bluntness of
manner the peculiar property of the Soldier,
and that like Othello, he was to be "rude of
speech." This perhaps was the freak of
by gouo tittles, and destined to remain
amid the lore of the past, if a IMO event
had not revived it, in all its original beau.
ty.. The joke is a good one if true, and` if
not only shows how we have been gulled
by some waggish friend. . •
On W.ld Cat's knot view with Major
Childs, at Fort Pterco, tho other day, after
exhibiting his consequence in several out•
breaks of impudence, ho saw an • Iron pot,

ed eloquence. "You call yourself, a war

from an old woman. If it'had been a man,
and 'taken in fair fight, tt would have been
your pot. That was not a warrior's act.—
I would as soon take baby linen from a
piccaniny, as u pot from a squaw: . But I
am a warrior, and I want my .pot," Tho

.Ino Smuitsuirs.--The great iron atearh
ship now being built at Bristol will proba•

of untried pinciples than were ever before
united in any one enterprise of the same
magnitude and importance. The vessel
herself—her enormous magnitude—(about
360 tons it is said)—her material—(plato
iron)— her engines, nearly twelve hex ;ctrei',
horse power—cylinders one hundred and
twenty inches in diameter I—no piston rods!
—no boamsl—the connecting rod having
hold immediately on the piston and a move•
able hollow casing playing through a stuff
ing box in the top of the piston to give play
to the said Connecting rod!—an unlimited
application of the expensive principle 1—
and to crown all. no paddle wheels, no pad.

bting her to move with any required velo

ComaioN SENSE.—No one is so foolish
as to suppuse for u moment that we Can
Ott, wit hoot eating, any more than a tree
could derive nutriment from the air alone,
without the soil. Chameleons may live un
air, though' t is well known that such air is
full of living insects. .AII, therefore / hnow
that it is what we put into the stomach
which calms us to live. We make over
our bodies from the stomach. In from
three to five years we make over our bodies
entirely. Thus what is part dint to-day
is absolutely not a part of us to-morrow. =
The secretions, such -as perspiration and
other evaeutions, continually make ' our
bodies waste, and it is from the stomach
that we supply this waste—all we have to
do to rnake,our . bodies ultimately healthy,
is to prevent - unhealthy particles from mix
ing w)th,,the blood. Purgation does this
forus proti'ded. the purgative we employ
contains in it nothing which will weaken us
or do us injury.
Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills,
for this'purpose, will be found all that is
