World's Convention. 87The steamer Cambria brings intelligence of the doings of this long talked of body, which as sembled in London with the view of forming a "Christian Alliance." Its sessions were attended by a large number of distinguished Divines inclu ding about sixty delegates from the U. States.— Among the persons who participated in the dis cussions of the Convention, we observe the name of our townsman, Rev. Dr. SCIIMUCKEII, The friends of Dr. S. will be pleased to learn that he returns with improved health, and that he was ex pected to arrive at Anew York in the Great West ern Conferee Meeting. In to-day's paper will be found the proceed ings of the Wliig Conferees, who Met at Abbots town on Saturday last. It will be seen that Dr. NES, of York, has — teen recommended to the support of all who desire a Repeal of the British Tariff, a Repdal of the iniquitous Sub-Treasury, and a return to the good old line of §ational Pol icy marked out by the Fathers of the Republic. The action of the Conferees will commend itself to the unanimous approval of our friends, and we pledge the Dr. such a support in this county as shall astound his political opponents. The . istie is now fairly made up, and we hope to see it as fairly met : —NES AND PROTECTION TO AMERICAN INDUSTRY—RANKIN AND THE BRITISH TARIFF of 1846 ! Voters of Adams, can you have any dillieulty in choosing between then? 0:Ylt will be seen that Resolutions in favor of Mr. COOPER (113 the Whig candidate for Govern or were unanimously adopted by the Conferees. Rock Creek Farm. By reference to our advertising columns it will be seen that the "Rock Ceek Farm," the Estate of Was.

Farm is a valuable one, arid, from its desirable lo cation and excellent improvement, presents . unu sual attraction to capitalists. Those desirous of making a' profitable investment, would do - well to attend the sale. ca" - - Our neighbor of the Compi/cr quotei; the IN. Y. Courier as originating the remark that the Penn sylvania Germans were "ignorant Dutch asses , without sense enough to judge right from wrong!" On the wrong track entirely. The Courier mere_ ly borrowed the imputation from .Cot. Snvrtn, the Lotofoco U. S. Senator from Arkansas, made in debate before that body, and afterwards reiterated by the Charleston Mercury, the organ of Southern Free-trade Locoibeoisin. The saddle may as well be put on the right horse.

Governnxent tnterference. IVe . invite the serious attention of our readers to the communication of .13saw 1:," in another column, in relation to a most dishonorable and cen gurable agency Of one of the minions of power, ‘vlio; leaving his post at Washington city, eanv: , ,,,ed our county for,uevcral weeks previous to the meeting of the Locofoco Convention, in order to DEFEAT NFCLEAN, who had rendered himself ob noxious to the Briti:;11 Free-trade Rulers at Wa,th- ington by his manly and consistent support of the Tariff of 1842, and to secure the nomination of a FREE-TRADE MAN. The facts charged WE KNOW TO DE TRUE. We have the mimes of the parties, and DARE A DENIAL. We arc but little disposed to interixe in the family quarrels of our political opponentS ; but when the General Government steps aside from its legitimate sphere and throws its pensioned agents into the political field, to control the deliberations of the people in their primary assemblages and crush those who may have too much manliness and honesty to "cringe the knee where thrift may follow favniing," it is high time that the people of all parties arouse themselVes to a true sense of the official insolence that characterises their rulers, and shake oil the ser vile despotism that is attempted to he imposed upon thrin, crc fetters shall have been applied to their thoughts or padlocks to their lip A. What i , :ty the Democracy of Adams to this interference Ni their deliberations ? liVithdrawn. It in said that "there is many a slip 'twist the cup and the lip," and so, no doubt, think Mr. D ts- NEIt. and his friends, by this time. Mr. AFC I. N once beaten, all MIS deemed safe, and forthwith the Compiler ran up the Danner flag, calling upon the Democracy of York, nt the risk of throwing the this trict into the hands of the "Federalists," to give in their adhesion. It was no go, however. The Yorkers stood firm, and declared their determination to support HA NK s, collie what might. Thus stood matters until last week, when Mr. Danner, seeing nothing but defeat and disaster in the pros pect, was compelled to beat a reluctant retreat ; and accordingly, in Monday's Compiler, he abandons the field to Col. RAN al N. It itr - generally under stood that the York County tonferrecs were wil- ling to noydnate Jlr. I‘I'CLEAN, but that this pro position was at once declined by the Danner men, who preferred giving their support to a FREE TRADE candidate in preference Co - an honest friend of Protection to American Industry. Maine Election. Returns of the recent election in Maine have been received from almost all the towns, and give us the gratifying assurance that Locofocoism has been completely routed in its stronghold. Mr. DANA, the Locofoco candidate for Governor, is beaten by a majority against him of not than Prvr, TIIOUSAND--the vote standing l3ronsin, (Whig) '27,016 ; Dana (Loco) 30,1:.'! - -.5 Scattering 5,498. Neither candidate having a majority of the whole vote, there is of course no election by the people. It will be recollected that in 1544 Polk beat Clay in Maine 11,341, and had a majority of 6,606 over all others: Light is beginning to break in upon benighted Maine; another effort will emancipate her from the tlualdum of Lococo- The political complexion of the Legislature is as yet doubtful in consequence of a number of dis .tricts having failed to elect. We have returns of election to the House of 27 Whigs, 19 . Locofocos, 1 Abolitionist, and 43 no choice—to the Senate probably 10 Whigs, and 7or 8 Locofocos. The characterpolitical , of the Legislature will of course depend much upon the result of the elections on second trial. HIRAM Ectentn (Whig) is elected to Congress in the 3d district by a large majority; Messrs. HAMMENS and WILLIAMS (Locos) probably sac cced by small majorities. .I.n the balance of the districts there is no choice. ' Mormon War. In a succeeding column we give the particulars of two engagements at Nauvoo between the Mor mons and their enemies. However much dis posed to condemn the absurdities of the Mormon religion, there can be but few right-minded citizens who will not sympathise with them in their diffi culties, and admire the manly courage displayed in defending their homes from the lawless aggres sions of a lawless mob. A civil war has com menced, and much as we deprecate its continu ance even fora single hour, we trust that the cit zens of Nauvoo will continue the defence of their firesides so manfully begun, nor lay aside their arms so long ds their enemies shall threaten their homes with invasion. There is but one effectual way of dealing successfully with mobs, mid were Gov. Foun of Illinois riot so utterly incompetent to the discharge of the duties of his station, he would long since have ordered out, if needs be, the entire military force of the State, and suppressed at all hazards the spirit of insubordination ere it had become darin 7 g, enough to develope itself in overt acts of rebellion against right and law. lErOur neighbor of the Compiler, in his last pa per, copies from the York Press an amusing essay in political economy, designed to show that be cause the price of flour is now lower than it was in is 12, when a partial failure of the crops in Eu rope created a temporary demand, and a corres ponding temporary advance in price--TITERETORE it is all owing to the mischievious influences of the rascally Tariffof 18.121 Logical indeed, and well worthy Sir Robert Walker himself. Unfor tunately, however, for our neighbor, his paper em bodying this profound argument had searcelmnade its appearance before intelligence was received of an advance in flour to S-1.75-75 cts over the price quoted by the Compiler (sl,oo)—occasioned by precisely the same influents that operated in 18-P2. It is by such miserable sophistry and misrepresen tation that Locofocoism seeks to hoodwink our Farmers into a support of their visionary and ru inous Free-trade theories. fff - A sage correspondent of the U. States Ga zette, writing from Cincinnati, mentions for the inforMation of "the V,Thigs of the East," that he had "barely heard thename of Gen. SCOTT since he - began to ascend the Cove Mountain!"

But besides these. there are , other que-firms to be decided, not less pregnant with gOod or evil, and in the issue of which the people of this State are more immediately inter e,te I. A debt of more than FORTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS is resting upon and pressing dawn the energies of the State, for the payment of which, in effect, every 'house and every farm is mort gagA To prevent this enormous burden fro in swelling its already hideous proportions, not less than ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THon. SA ND DOLLARS ANNUALLY are wrung from the hard-working, tax-paying cirizens of the State ; and must continue to be wruag from them unless some means be devised whereby this monstrous debt may be removed from our shorthlers. And fo efilw.t this, there can be but One policy, a policy , whose reasonableness and justness must at once suggest thernsel'Ves to every thinking voter—a led icy to which the Whig party and their candidates stand pledged —we mean a SALE O 1 THE vu LIC WORKS. By adopting this policy, $ . .1.(t,(Y 3 f1,- ..hip can be at once realized and applied to extin; guishing that amount of the State Debt—the bal ance will be manageable. "For years," remarks the' West Chester Village Record, "the Public Works of Pennsylvania have been the plunder of hordes of political cormorants and other foul birds ' of prey. They have plundered the revenue, beg gared the Treasury, and reduced the credit of the Commonwealth to the lowest point of bankrupt cy. Tired of the imposition, the People of all p arties iu 18 14 voted that the public worksshould be sold at Public auction. The voice of the peo• ple was overwhlnling,. More than :20,001m.ijor ity proclaimed that the freemen of Pennsylvania were tired and disgusted at the continual outi:ages which bad been pmctised,upon them." . „But the will:of the4aople was set at defiance!

And to sustain these puppets of power and panderers to official corruption, the life-blood, the bone and sinew of the land—the FARMER, the MECHA N IC. and the LABORER—must be - crushes! and grnrnd down by OPPRESSIVE TAXATION aceumn hating in amount and frequency with every suc cessive year! And as though the people of the State had not been yet sufficiently oppressed, rath ier than dispose of the Public Works, the LOCO : FOCO LEGISLATURE (says the Lebanon Cm]. der) at its last session, saddled upon us a Tax Law far more unjust, odious and oppressive titan any ever enacted heretofore even by Locorocoism of the most radical and destructive stripe, under more plausible and justifiable circumstances. We speak not at random—we have the documents to substantiate our charges. Below we copy the Ist Section of the Act re ferred to, which is entitled "An act to provide for the reduction of the public debt," but which ‘Vould more appropriately read "An . Act to pro vide for the support of Locofoco leechcs and dema- Here is the extract: gogtecs !" "Sr.c.tto:x 1.

Farmers, Mechanics, and Working -Men, you will here perceive that a TAX is now levied upon EVERY SPECIES OF PROPERTY you hap pen to "own, use or possess"—whether it be your farms, or the product of your farms whether it be your book accounts, or wehether it be "flesh, fowl or fish'' —all has been taxed to satisfy the voracious maws of the horde of cormorants who are feeding and fattening upon the patronage of the State Administration. The public affairs of Pennsylvania have for years been under Locofoco misrule, and what has been the result? In sober seriousness, we would put the question to every individual who receives the visits of the tax-collectors in this county, what are the fruits of Locofoco Legisla lotion ? Have not your taxes been altn'ost year ly increased, until they have now become almost intolerable? Let your empty purses answer this question? , And now cap the whole, the cattle in your stalls, the poultry in your yards, and the necessaries of life on your tables, are ALL subject to Taxation according to the.Locofoco Tax Law, approved on the 22d day of April, 1546?

From Mexico and the Army. tr:r Our last advises from the Army represent that Gen. Taylor was advancing his forces by detachments upon the road to Monterey. It was supposed that by the sth of September the main body of the Army would have left Camargo. The ru mors in regard to the position and inten tion of the Mexican forces in the neighbor hood of Monterey, are very contradictory, some affirming that there would no re sistance to Gen. Taylor's advance, while others speak of a determination upon the part of the Mexicans to give battle. A court of Inquiry was about to be held to inquire into the particulars of the dis graceful Riot among the Georgia troops, in suppressing whicCCol. Baker and others were so seriously wounded.' TV/risky, as usual, was at the bottom of the difficulty. The Steamship Arab, the vessel which carried Santa Anna to Vera Cruz, arrived at New Orleans on the 9th inst. The most important news by the Arab, is a state ment that Mexico had dectilled the overtures ofpeucemade by this country. Of this, liow ever, there is no certainty. ' Santa Anna had left Vera Cruz on his way to the city or Mekico. llis reception was by no means enthusiastic as was anticipated. It was rumored that the Army stationed at San Luis Potosi had again declared in favor of Paredes ! But little is known of Santa Anna's feelings in refereirce to a con tivance of hostilities, except what may be ffathered from the significant fact that he was permitted by Corn. Connor to pass the blockade. When the Arab, witli Santa An na on board, arrived benne Vera Cruz it was boarded by the lieutenant of the St. Mary's, who, after a short interview with Santa Anna, re-appeared on deck and ~ f arc ; permission to the „owncrs of the .Irob to Muss the 1.4.1c1m1.r. mlaw.seAtrowt==ailmilaigiiMMMlNl 3== r 4) the Vole..r.s ra-.

We deem it inexpedient at this time to settle upon any one, for the following ainongf 7 t other reasons to wit:— It is very well known that many persons in the district are opposed to eqndidates be ing settled, prelim in , r the custom of having Independent Candidates in the field, and as the Hon. DENBY NES, of York County, the able Representative from this District in the 125di Comrre:;s of the U.

And as the locoloco leaders of York and Adams counties by their re jection of the Hon. .1/ums _lbChi - in - and the selection of Col. .lonN RANINN in his stead as their candidate for Congress, give the strongest indication that t h e. latter has been selected. in prefer( nee to the former, uu acemint of his greater attachment to the prineiples of the BRITISH 'FA RIFF of ISwhich are to be found record , - ed the votes ofall the members of Con gress from Pennsylvania with one excep tnid—such biing the case, what Pennsyl- Valliati ID . :-..itate for a moment in, casting his vote on the second Tuestlo. of Octo ber next for Dr. tl:e tried friend of protection, in iirclerener givin , r it to John Punkin, the TRADE CANDI DATE L We. thin!: there cannot be a doubt but that a majeritv of 1000 tommes in the ili,trivt will prod:tin] at the ballot boxes, that their servants this day assem bled at Abboustown have judged correctly, and that it would he fully in the extreme to select any other candiClate at this time. At the sane! time :Ind I,laec the conferees adopted the following Preamble and RCS 01111i011S : .„ Whereas the question of %OM is to be the Whig - candidate for Governor in 18.16 is beginning to be agitated; and whereas it is or the utmost importance that a name should be presented, around which the people would be likely to rally with u nanimity and entlitviasni. Therefore Resolved, That we present to the whi!rs of the Commonwealth the name of .1:1A1 Et; COOPER, id:Um - IN ('Dotty, as one \\Alia Krill eminently serve to arouse the people, and rally theta in support of their trite and best interests.

()n ascertaining the movements of their .foes, the Mormons beat to quarters, mmter ed between three and live hundred men, and went forth ni meet their adversaries. The antagonistic partica out about one mile east of the Temple, %viten a battle coin menced. The "Ssints" and the "Gentiles",.fired upon each other for about two hours, but the distance was so great that their leaden missiles were materially depriNed of their death-dealing. propensities. Having, somewhat appeased their wrath, the belligerents drew off, each part , : return ing to its original position in the in Ornilr. The Antics, numbering Upwards 01S00, 'returned to canip. with several of their men wounded. The excitement was very great in the vicinity, and it was generally supposed that the battle would be resumed, either that evening or the next morning. Letters had pa:ssed, previous to the fray, heWeen Mtj. Parker, conimanding'in Nan von, and Col. Singleton, the, leader of the Anti-Alormons, in' which the latter made certain propositions, which he said it the Mormons would accede to, all difficulties would be adjusted. These were: • Ist. The' Alormons to surrender up their arms. 2d. All their iT-ents, • who may re main to dispose of their property, must leave the State in sixty days. 3d. An at torney to be selected to take supervision of all writs, serve and settle the same be tween the parties, Sze. 'These proppositions were agreed to by ' the Mormons, but when submitted by Col. Singleton to the officers of the Anti-Mor mons, they rejected them. C(d. S. and Col. Chittenden immediately threw up their commands, both declaring that the HAlormon'S had shown a willingness to make peace, highly creditable to them as a people, and they resolved to take no fur : flier part air:dust them. Col. Brockman Was then elected to the c;onimand of the as sailing force, and the fight w t c Was the result. I,:.'I'EH . 1 1nothr*I. Battle al .\'auvoo—•The Alormon3 againforcell to I i scut The tit. Louis papers recieved by the 'estern mail bring the particulars oh an other battle between the contending parties at: Nauvoo. The Navooites, sinvo the previous action, had erected an entrench ment, and mounted, six cannon upon it. The Antics on approaching to the, attack, 6 tired two pound balls into the vamp and then proposed a parley, but the Nauvuoites refused, saying that the tune for talking had passed. The battle then recommenced with ar tillery, continuing for nearly an hour, and closing with musketry. The attacking,par ty were then driven off at every point, and they finally retreated. The Nauvoo leader, Anderson, and his son, were killed, with two others. The Antics acknowl edge but six wounded—one mortally. Another battle was hourly expected.— Great suffering existed at Nauvoo on ac count of the scarcity of provisions. Am munition was also scarce. The Mormon force is estimated at from five to six hundred, but our informant states that they have very little amumni lion, and are almost entirely: destitute of provisions. He thinks that their destitu tion 01 provisions and anununp.ion must yet render them an easy conquest,,although many of them, men and 'WOIIICII, swear they on the soil before they will be driven away. His description of scenes of distress and alarm to be witnessed in the city is truly apalling—women and children franticly running through the streets, with their husbands in the field, and they without home or refuge from the s:orm. In many cases the balls fired by the An tics are gathered up by, the women and carried to the Mormon camp to be used again. Such of the women and children as can, have crossed the river Montrose. Many of the new citizens have also gone over. NA.RR.IEI), A CHEAP FAMILV PHYSICIAN—Dr. • CHANCE FOR FAINERS ! ! Benj.
