Borough Election. 117 - The election for Borough offices on Tuesday last passed off with unusual quietness—the "Demo. cracy" making no show of opposition. The vote was, of course, very small, and stood as follows : BURGESS, Daniel M. Smyser, TOWN COUNCIL, C. W. Hoffman, Wm. King, John Winebrenner, Geo. W. hi'Clellan, George Little, SCHOOL DIRECTORS, Henry Welty, (3 years.) 81 H. J. Schreiner, (3 years,) 82 John L. Tate (2 years,) 93 ,STREET & ROAD COM INIISSIONERS, Daniel Baldwin, 85 Quintin. Armstrong, 86 Common Schools. Erin pursuance of the usual notice the citizens of thellorough assembled in town meeting at the Court house on Tuesday evening last, to deter mine the amount of tax to be levied for school pur poses during the coming• year, and organized by calling A. B. Kunrz to the chair, and appointing Jens H. BEIGHLY, Secretary, A statement of the condition of the School fund and iheamountof expenditures during the past year having been laid before the meeting by the Secretary of the late Board of Directors, on motion of H. J. Schrein er: Esq., it was . unanimously Resolved that the Board of School Directors ,be authorized to lay a tax of Five Hundred Dollars additional.to the amount which the law empowers the Board to levy, making in all twelve hundred dollars. This, with the - fund received from the State appropria. tion, Will keep open all the Borough schools du ring the entire year. The promptness and una nimity with which the additional tax was voted, indicates the growing popularity of the Common School system among our citizens.

See advertisement in a subsequent column. The Bight of Way. ErNotwithstanding the reputed sharpness o the Philadelphia LaWyers, the Right of Way men have "pnlled the wool over their eyes" most suc cessfully. It' seems that while the attention of all was directed to the grand contest upon the "Right of Wayßill," a few of the friends of the measure managed to have a clause attached to some Act in regard to the "Poor of Erie County," reviving a former Act of Assembly incorporating the Pittsburg and Connelsville Railroad Company, with ,a uthority to construct a Rail-road from Pitts bUrg to the . Maryland 'Lino by the route of the Youghiogheny livery. The Bill , with this clause atinched, passed both houses without exciting 'any attention, and having received the signature of the Governor, is of course a law. The first notice of the trick received by the Philadelphians.was in the Shape of 'the published card of the Com missioners under _the act anhouncing that books feir the subscription, of stock in said Company would be opened in Pittshurg, West Newton, and Connelsville on the 25th inst. I . The route author- . ited by the Act is in,the direct line towards Cum bei rland,'ind'secures , all that was_proposed to be accomplished by the "Right of Way Bill," without any of the "onerous restrictions of the latter. The Pittsburg men seem quite, delighted with the idea of having "come it" so successfully tiver their Philadelphia rivals, and the latter as much cha grined at the idea of having been caught napping. Virginia ElectiOn. •117 The Richmend Enquirer (Loco) thus sums up the 'result of the election, as far as ascertained: "One hundred and 'twentysix members elected, 68 Democrats and 58 Whigs -8 counties to hear from; 'Which , last . year sent 6 Democrats 'and - 2 Whigs.

Ruberiaatorbal. 117 Influenced rearmiss arising ont of the pe 7 , culiar lonation of.thiaPreas with reference lo one of the prominent itatiivirluals named in - ionnection with.thehext Whig candidate for Governor of this State, we have hitherto generally refrained from ' any remarks that we mignt have been - disposed to make "upon the Gubernatorial question, content with occasionally referring to movements upon the subject elsewhere, and transferring to our col nnins a few of the numerous complimentary no tices of our distingtiished . and deservedly esteem- ; ed fellow.citizen. Similar reasons, as well as considerations of proper 8611:respect, have pre vented any notice of the illiberal and exceptionable remarks that, from time to time, have eminated from sundry quarters, in which ungenerous insin uations of selfish and unworthy motives were freely imputed to all such as have. hesitated to shape their preferences ard views.of policy conformably to the teachings of certain political schools. • Firm ly convinced of the propriety of an early, frank and full development. of the preferences of the masses that constitute the strength and hope of our party, we have on more than one occasion urged a direction of attention to suitable candi ' dates for the Presidential and Gubernatorial offices, and frankly expressed our preferences as to the t. It need scarcely be remarked that our confi de in the correctness of this policy has been in no' way shaken by the. fact that our motives have been misunderstood or even willfulljmisr‘prereat• ed. Conscious of the purity of those motives, as having in view the sole advancement and final triumph of Whig principles, and scorning as we should to attribute views less disinterested to those whose preferences lir ideas of expediency may differ from our own, the ungenerous insinuations to which we have alluded can excite no other feel ing than that of supreme contempt, mingled pos sibly with occasional regrets at meeting with the imputations from sources" whence better things had been esrpected. But we have said more upon this matt‘r than was intended—more, possibly, than we shall say again—more, certainly, than it deserved Our object in commencing this paragraph was .0 notice the excellent - tone of X' sensible article under the caption of the "Next Governor," in the last I.ll;ntingdon Journal. The editor is a friend of Gen. Invrxs, and warmly urges the propriety of his nomination as the next Whig candidate for the office of Governor. Yet' he deprecates' any "bickering and - heart-burnings between the friends of different candidates," and cheerfully accords the same devotion to principles to the other. gentle men named that he claims for his own favorite.— This is the right spirit—the feeling that should actuate the friends of all the candidates named. The Journal_ emarks : The favorite of the Whigs of thc 17th Congreassonal District desires not to be the candidate of the Whig party, unless it appears to be clearly and unequivocally the wish of a majority of that party, that it should be so. Gen. JAMES 'IRVIN cares more for the success of Whig principles in Pennsylvania, and the ultimate redemp tion of our, c,,, un the - blighting in trunifncnism, than ma litical promotion of himself. There will be no occasion, therefore, for .any bicker ings or heart burnings between the friends of the .different candidates, as we are quite Willing to accord the same amount of pa triotism to the othergentlemannamed, that we clatin for the favorite of our district, and believe all now before the people are "Whigs of the right stamp—willing either to bear the Standard, or do battle,for the suc cess of their principles, as private soldiers in the ranks. If, therefore, the different in terests and divisions of the Whig army but act prudently, the most harmonious and auspicious nomination may be effected with ease, and the candidate, be he Irvin, I Cooper, Markle, Stewart or Strohm, or a ny other good Whig, triumphantly elected. The friends of Irvin, it may be expect ed by all, will be moderate, yet firm and unwavering, in his support. They will stand by the man of their choice, and with becoming zeal support his 'nomination by the Convention, until .they discover that there is a majority against them ; \ but in that event they will go in heart and hand to the support of any other gentleman that may be selected, with as much zeal and industry as if the choice had fallen upon their own favorite ; provided he possesses the indispensable qualifications—"hones ty and capability." The general spirit of the above extract, wo re peat, commends itself to the friends of the differ- ent candidates, and by none, we feel assured, will it be more cordially reciprocated than by those who have urged the nomination of our immediate fel low-citizen. Holding the triumph and successful administration of Whig principles in our State legislation to be an attainment infinitely paramount to all personal considerations, we have but little pre- ference as to the individual to be ourtstandard bear- er, and stand ready to do battle tinder any good Whig to whom the majority of our friends shall point as combining in his qualifications the better requisites for a successful leader. We support Mr. Coorsa not that we regard • him a better Whig than Gen. IRVINE, Gen. MARKLE; Mr. STr.wAnT, orMi.lagrt, but that we believe the qual ifications which shouldattach to the next Whig candidate for Governor develope themselves more preeminently in him than in any other individual named—not that we dciubt the possibility of , an election of any other man ; but that we he lieve that a triumph over our political enemies would be achieved More easily and more certainly With Air. Coorin as Inn 'candidate. • —Sho_uld, however; a majority . of the Whigs' dq termini otheliiise and phice in nomination Gen. Invsnr, Gen. 1114.nfLE, or any other good Whig, no one will rally ter hie stippOrt with more ardor and good will than Mr. Coorti himself, and when the contest shall have heen . elosed, from no county in the State will a better Neidict be renclered-thzih that "which shall be' by the Whig; of the "Young Guard." • • • . .

Piollet, a Member of the Legislature, and of the Conimit tee on Banks, by giving him $4OO and promising him 11100 more, for his vote in favor of the Lehigh County Bank, 'an investigation of sundry charges against which was then pending before that Com mittee, pursuant to a resolution of the House, was closed in the Court of Quarter Sessions of Dauphin I county, on Saturday last, having occupied the time of the Court since the previous Wednesday morning. The Harrisburg correspondent of the U. S. Gazette states that the prosecution was con : ducted by John A. Kane, Esq., the Attorney Gen eral, and his highly respectable Deputy for that county, Richard 31Vallister, Esq. And the de ! fence, it possible, was still more ably managed by James MCornsick and J. A. Fisher of Harrisburg, and the lion. James Cooper of Gettysburg. "When Greek meets Greek Allen comes the tug of war," —and yet the whole case was conducted with great decorum and due courtesy on both sides, the Court-house being crowded with spectators; attract' ed thither by the novelty or importance of the trial, and the ability of the cotinsel concerned in it. The whole two depended upon the tea. timony of two witrresses upon the part of the Com monwealth, Mr. Piollet and Mr. Galloway, both member of the Legislature. The defence was di rected principally to discrediting this testimony and adducing evidence of the uniform good char acter of the accused. The counsel fdr defendant also argued to the Court that the offence of bribing a member of the Legislature is not an indictable offence at Common Law, and that the prosecution I could not be sustained ua we have no statuary provision upon the subject. Judge Eked, in his charge to the Jury, corn 'batted this view, and decided that the case before the Court was indictable at Common La.w, and that whatever amounted to a public wrong was the subject of indictment. He then reviewed the ' testimony, and instructed the jury, that if they be lieved Piullet and Galloway, they must bring in the defendant guilty. At half past 2 o'clock, the Jury returned a ver 'diet of ouri,Ty- 7 when the counsel for the defence moved„ an arres.t. of judgeinent, with a view of re arguing the legal points. On Monday after a short arguinent, the Court sen tenced McCook to pay a fine of $6OO and the costs of prosecution. The $4OO Which Piolet had re ceived from McCook and-handed =over to the Speaker of the House, was restored to McCook. Support 'Your own County Papers. CETI I e last Westchester "Record;`" in an arti: de upon the' propriety .of T encouraging County Newspapers, has. the following sensible remarks, which we transfer to our columns, and commend to the attention of our readers: Substituting Ad dams for CI ester, every word becomes peculiarly applicable to this region. While on this , subject, we may say a word in reference to the tricks . constantly practiced by the Philadelphia papers to gull the public into their support. Quite recently one of them has offered to supply nf 7r, rnntn tl niece the present 3rear, and next year for nothing, zi . they get More subscribers than any other office ! Their chance is as one to a 1000. In one or two _instances, we understand, the take in has been effectual and numbers of men have subscribed for a distant paper, that gives not a stiver of Chester county news, be cause it is cheap. Some of these men arc mechanics, who think it strange that their neighbor should go to the city to buy boots, coats, hats or cabinet ware; when ' they could get a better article at home, which if it cost more would suit them bet ter. We do not think any store keeper, or shoemaker, or cabinet or chair maker, or other mechanic, who goes to Philadelphia or New York to buy his papers, while he. borrows his own county papers from his neighbors, has aright to complain f he finds his own customers going to the same places to buy their goods. Now, we say to the storekeepers and all others in Ches ter county, encourage your own county papers—make them respectable by giving them support. Every citizen of Chester county will find in his own county paper news that he cannot get 'elsewhere—im portant news—marriages, deaths, adver tisements, local items, proceedings of Court, jury lists, notices to Drs. and Crs. and thousand other things, interesting and impor tant to him, and not to be found elsewhere. Come, fellow citizenssupport home in dustry—support us and we'll sup sort yon —every dollar that is added _to 'bur sub scription enables us to add something to the value. and appearance of our paper. To all merchants and mechanics, we say— support your own county newspapers, and you can fairly ask and expect your, neigh bors to support you. Example is every thing. Congress. ID - Nothing of general interest has transpired in either branch of the National Legislature du ring the past week—both Houses having adjourn ed for several dayi in order to have the Halls re fitted and furnished for summer use. - In the House of Representatives on Monday last, on motion of Mr. Adums, a resolution was adopted requesting the President of the U. States to inform the House whether any deserters lrom the United States army have been shot while in the act of deserting, and if so, by whose orders. On Wednesday the President transmitted to the House a message in reply, stating .that no orders upon the subject had been,issued by the War De partment, but that a despatch had been received from Gen. Taylor, commanding the army on the "frOntier of Mexico, by which it appeared that two deserters had been 'shot by the picket guards while attemptini to swim across the river.: Pour others hid droWned in the attepvt, • ID'On Thursday week, the Hon.

T advice; . which went out from this country by the Hiber nia, were considered in England as tending to preserve peace between the two countries. The English people are engrossed by their own public affairs, and the excitement upon the Corn Laws and the Irish Coercion Bill has reached such a pitch that it was : expected Sir Robert Peel would have to retire from his position at the bead of affairt. The opposition'to - his measures'was expected to be led by Lord Stanley. The Cotton Market had advanced one-eighth of a . penny, the Hibernia having carried out a confir mation of a short crop. Business generally was dull. No improvemeiit since the last advices. There was no change to note in the flour mar ket, which continued firm at former prices. The iron trade had undergone no change. The provision market dull, large arrivals having recently taken place. As Louis Philippe was returning from his drive in the forest of Fountainbleau, a man seated on the wall, fired at the King. His family were with him. Several balls struck inside the carriage but no one was injured. The assassin was artested. The news from Ireland is distressing—in some parts of Tipperary the peasantry, unable to resist the cravings of hunger any longer, have broken into the shops and helped themselveS. The town of Clommell is• in a state of siege, and the poor, starving people are only kept down by fear of the bayonet. The latest accounts from Spain announce the very gratifying fact that Narvaez has been driven Out of the country. lie has fled to the South of France.

By the steamship New York, which ar rived at New Orleans on the 29th ult., ad vices have been received from the Army of Occupation to the 22W On the 19th Lieut. Porter, of the 4th Regiment, (son of the late Commodore Porter,) being out with a fatigue party of ten men, (some of them wearing uniform) was fired upon with in a few miles of the camp. Lieut. Porter and three of his men were killed in the at tack, the rest of the party escaping, return ed to the camp next day. It is stated that the guns of the Americans 'were wet and would not fire. Nothing further had been hoard of Col. Cross up to the 19th, but the general opin ion is that he is still a prisoner, though not at Matainoras. In answer to a message o inquiry from Gen. Taylor in regard to the capture of Col. Cross, Gen Ampudia sent several officers to the American camp with the answer that they knew nothing of Col. Gross, but they had made Lieut. Doas a prisoner. This officer it appears, had pre viously crossed the river (but without or ders) in search of Col; Cross, (who was his particular friend,) and had fallen into the hands of the Mexicani. Gen. Ampu dia, in his answer to the inquiries of Gen. Taylor concerning Col. Cross, expressly disavowed any acts' hostility that might have been or might hereafterbe committed by Mexicans op this side of the river, sta- ting that all such acts were unauthoriaccl by him or his Government.

There were also in the room, where it passed' down and up, Mr. elute and his wife, and Peter MeHuey and a boy; none of them over eight feet from the current, and none of them hurt. The house was considerably damaged, and the chimney cracked in several places. A SAD ACCIDENT.—The Washington (Pa.) Reporter says :—"A. most distress ing accident occurred in our borough on last Tuesday evening. A well-digger nam ed Stewart Lynn, engaged in sinking a well at the new foundry of Brice, Frisbee and Hitchcock, met -with an accident which is likely to terminate in his-death. He had placed the fire to the match in order to make a blast, but unusual delay in the ex plosion led him to suppose that the match was cxtinguised by the _ damp air in the well. While descending the well to reig nite it, the, explosion - tool: place, which mangled his lace in a most horrible man ner, lacerating every ligament, breaking his arm and otherwise dreadfully mangling his body. .His appearance is described by those who saw him, as horrible in the ex treme. The poor sufferer is enduring the tortures of a thousand deaths at the moment' of this present writing." COITSTERFEITS.—A letter, published in .Bicknell's Counterfeit Detector, says that the new counterfeit lives, on the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank of Baltimore, -arc in circulation at Stoyetowiri-Pa., of the fol lowing description :—Lett er A. J. Loney, Cashier; Geo. McKinstry, President; da ted Marelr4, 1245. Vignette two females IME reclining, shipping'in the distance.— Instead of The Bank, &c., they read THF, Lite. Paper thin. The words The, and Bank, much darker than, the others ; alSo Baltimore at bottom or the, Bill. There are also counterfeits of the above descrip tion on the Farmers' and Merchants'llank at Middletown Point. New Jersey. EXTENSIVE Ronumtv.—Mr. McCabe o Howard st., Baltimore, was robbed of $B,- 221 in Bank bills, a few nights ago, while on his , way to Philadelphia, in one of the steamboats.

There were live $l,- 000 notes among them. A LAWYER SENTENCED in the U. S. Dis trict Court sitting at Baltimore on Satur day.—By this Court the sentence was pro nounced on E. P. King, a lawyer convict ed of attempting to defraud the U. S. Treas ury Department, at Washington. Judge Heath reviewed the transaction, setting forth to the prisoner the enormity of his of fence, and concluded by sentencing him to the Penitentiary for five,years., THE SECRET SERVICE FUND.—The N. York Sun say's :—We learn that President 'Tyler has written a letter to the commit tee of Congress, in which he alleges that Mr. Webster never applied any portion o the secret service fund without consulting him, and . receiving his entire sanction; that no part was applied without proper consideration, and that he, and not Mr. Webster, is wholly responsible for its ap plication in all cases. INCREASE OF POSTAGE.-111 the course of the discussion on the Post Office appro priation bill, on Friday last, in the _House of Representatives, in reply to an enquiry made by Mr. Payne, Mr. Hopkins, (chair man of the committee on Post Offices and Post Roads,) stated, that . the committee had agreed upon a bill proposing an increase of the rates of postage established by the Into law, but not a heavy increase—and that the bill would be reported in a few days. 131tUTALITi AND • AVARICE.AII atiVer titement in the Huntingdon, Mifflin, and 'Bedford county, Pa., papers, by Isaac Wolverton, gives notice to the inhabitants of those counties, that he intends erecting on the lot adjoining the jail yard, in' Hun tingdon, au ample and substantial scaffold, for the aceommodation . of all who desire to witness the execution of James McCaffer ty, on the Bth day of May—price of tick ets-moderate: • Another large Iron Foundry is now be ing erected in Hanover, by Messrs.

Sun. BREACH OF PROMISE.—During 63 7 SCS sion of the Supreme Court of Massachu setts, which was begun. silt Lowell; April il3, two cases of breach of promise of mar- Hag have been tried. Iri the East Caro. line Frost sued Wheelock Newton for breach of promise of marriage and seduc tion, claiming $2,000 damages. The Ju ry gave the plaintiff a verdict of $2,500-- $5OO more than she claimed. She can avail herself of $2,000, the amount claim ed. Poor Newton got badly frost-bitten. Both' of the parties' belonged to West Cain bridge, Mass., and arc very young; and tho connexions highly respectable. In the other case, Lucelia Pearl sued Philander Cheswell.for breach of promise of mar— riage and seduction, and the jury gave a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $2,000 The girls of Massachusetts are not to be trifled with. We wonder if the faithless wooers feel chat]; 7 .. • MARRYING IN JEST.—The Legislature of New York has refused to annul the mar riage of Miss Lilhe, who, it will be recol lected, stood up and was married during a sleighing frolic. It is hard, but just. A ceremony of such importance is not a lit subject for mockery. As she married in haste, she must repent at leistii.e. The Albany Citizen, of Monday, says the mat ter has been finally settled as follows : "Miss Lillie and Mr. Hall, whose ap plication for divorce has occupied much of the time of the Legislature, were married last evening, in the South Pearl street Baptist Church." WESTERN PRODUCE.—The amount of bread stuff waiting shipment at Milwaukie was a short time since, 150,000 bushels of wheat, and 15,000 barrels of flour. And there was in store at Racine 150,000 bush els of wheat, 2,000 hides 1,000 bbls. flour, 450 bbls. pork, 4,000 bbls. beef, '2,000 bushels oats. DISPARITY.—In all marriages care should be taken to encourage no disparity of years between the parties, which is ev er the source of unhappiness. The Lex ington (Mo.) Telegraph announces the marriage of Mr. Eden Myers, a youth of 10,_to Mrs. Mary Nash the mother of 25 children ! And also, Judge John Briscoe, formerly of Cooper county, and_now a res ident of Van Buren, aged 70, to Miss Drake.. aged 16! THE NASHVILLE TRAGEDY.—'!'he Pitts burg Despatch contains a statement from Edward Z. C. Judson, who it rill be re membered, shot Robert Potterfield at. Nas hville a few months since. He posith;ely denies all and every charge that has been brought against him at Nashville with re gard to his having seduced Mrs. Potterfield and pronounces all that has been said a bout her as base libels on.an injured and virtuous lady. DIVORCES. —A paragraph is now doing the rounds, stating that sixty divorces were granted by the laSt,Legislature of this State, and that each case paid a tax into the State Treasury of twenty dollars. The Senator from this county informs us that this is a mistake. But twenty seven di vorces were granted, and the tax of $2O is only paid when the application is made by the husband.—Lan. Examiner. REDUCTION OF FARE.-.A. material' re duction in the rates of travel has been made on the Baltimore and Susquehanna Rail road. Passengers are now conveyed be tween Baltimore and York, Pa., a distance of sixty miles, for $1,50, in three hours and a half, and to other points on the road at proportionate rates. Two HUNDRED AND FORTY-THREE TAV ERN LICENSES were granted at the April term of the Court of Quarter Sessions, at Lancaster, and twelve applications refused. The Court will not grant a liemise to any new stand unless the applicant makes out a very strong case, and is without the op position of any respectable portion of the community in which it is located.
