Gicifernor Jobpsum. -
It is with feelings of unalloyed satisfac
tion that we this week place at our mast
WM. F. JOHNSTON,
head the name of
as our first choice for standard bearer in
the approaching contesp. We do this from
a deep ennt intion that no other man can
exc i te t h e same degree of enthusiasm, or
rally
a round him the same number of ele
ments to ensure victory.
In consideration of his deep devotion to
the cherished principles of Pennsylvania,
and his strenuous exertions to maintain
them, it may be safely asserted that no
Governor, since the days Of Simon Snyder,
ever enjoyed the confidence of the party
which elected, him and the respect of his
opponents, to a greater extent than Wm. F.
Johnston. Nor is this strange ; for his
course has been such as to - endear - him to
the people, and they know that he has on
every occasion, when an opportunity offered
evinced a determination to .promote their
interests, by advocating and enforcing such
measures as were calculated to lessen taxa
tion. The advantages of his Sinking Fund
system aro every day beComing more ap
parent. By its operations our enormous
State debt is gradually dwindling away, so
that in the course of time, if 'adhered to,
we may expect to be relieved from that
huge incubus which now clogs the wheels
of enterprise, and disheartens• the farmer at
his plough.
During the last session of the Legla
ture a wily and factious majority endeavor-
ed to force him into such measures, in
making appropriations for certain improve
ments, which, had they been successful,
would have increased taxation ; but, with a
•
courage and firmness truly Spartan, he re
sisted their attempts triumphantly, and had;
sueb measures passed as were more in ac- 1
kv eordance with the true interests and . reall
•,-4;lwishes of The people. He is just the kind
of a man that should be at the helm of the
glorious - old Keystone State, and so long
as he directs her course, the people will
feel assured that though Locofocoism 'may
conjure up a storm in the political sea, with
the hope of engulphing her, or driving her
on some dangereus shoal, yet, in the , midst
of the tempest, there will be that certainty
f safety, that all will feel like exclaiming:
—" never fear, Old Bill Johnston's at the'
helm !"
His past actions have .proven him equal .
to every emergency, and more thou a match
for the whole host of Locofoco intriguers
combined. He possesses firmness which
no menaces can shake, a sagacity which
no artifice, however subtle, can delude; and
an inflexible honesty of purpose which has
never been questioned. These distinguished
traits in his' character have - imparted a' lus
ire to his political fame which places him,
as a statesman and a patriot, on the same
pedestal with, the greatest men of which
the Whig pdrty is proud to boast. -
THE SALT LAKE.—Lieut. Gunnison of
the Topographical Engineers, who has been
employed for a. long time past in the Survey
of ,the Great Basin in which the Salt Lake
is situated, speaks of the lake as' an object
of great curiosity. The water :is about
one-third salt, yielding that amount on boil
ing. Its density is considerably greater
:han that of the Dead Sea. One can hardly
get his whole body below the surface. In
a sitting position the head and shoulders
trill remain above water; such is the
strength of the brine, and on coming to the
shore the body is covered over with an in
crustation of salt, in fine crystals. The
most surprising thing about it is the fact
that during the summer season the lake
throws on shore an abundance of salt,
while in the winter season it throws up
glauber salt in large quantities.' The rea
son; of this is left to the scientific to judge,
and also what becomes of the enormous
amount of fresh water poured into it by
three or fourlarge rivers—Jordqn, Bear,
and Weber—as there is no visible outlet.
BATTLE OP NEW °ELEA:VS.-It is related
by a correspondent of the N. Y. Enquirer,
that the late Major Davezac, when a pas-
sen g er some years ago on board the packet
ship Cambridge, from Liverpool to N. York,
related the following incident illustrative of
:he sharp shooting at the battle of New
Orleans. He stated that, en the morning
after the battle, twelve boiled robins were
placed on the breakfast table prepared for
General Jackson and his suite, which had
been shot with a rifle, through the head, by
one of the Kentucky Riflemen, who , had
been in the conflict; he had fired thirteen
times, and missed hitting his bird in the
head only once! This circumstance being
soon known in\ the neighborhood, a certifi
cate of the faciwas requested 'of and ob
tained from Gen. Jackson and his aids, by
the British officers, that, by such evidenCe,
on their return to England, they might ex
hibit .to their Government the character of
the enemy at New Orleaiis.
GEN. Scorr has little else but his sword
`1 to recommend him as ,a candidate I for the
Presidency.—Easton Argus. •
Gen. Cass has'nt even that—he has only
half a sword to recommend him, having
broken off' and lost the •other half, in a
furious charge, upon a stump - during the list

Buffalo Cori. Adv
An Interesting Incident.
The Greenville (S. C.) Patriot relates
the following :
The other day, in conversation with.
Miss Dix, the philanthropist, during her
visit to Greenville, a lady said to her,
" Are you not afraid to travel all over the
country alone, and have you not encoun
tered dang ers and keen ' in perilous situa
tions ?" " am naturally timid," said Miss
Dix, " s and diffident, like all my sex; but,
in order to carry out my purposes, I know
that it is necessary to make sacrifices and
encounter dangers. It is true, I have been,
in my travels through different States, in
perilous situations. will mention one,
which occurred in the State of Michigan.
I had hired a carriage and driver to convey
me some distance throUgh an uninhabited
portion of the country. In starting, I dis
covered that the driver, a young lad, had a
pair of pistols with him. Inquiring what
he was doing with arms, he said he carried
them to protect us, as he had heard that
•robberies had been committed on our road.
I said to him, gisfe me the pistols, I will
take care of them.' He did so, but very
_reluctantly. •
In pursuing our journey through a dismal
finest, a man rushed into the road, caught
the horses by the bridle, and demanded my
purse. I said to him with as much self
possession as I could command, Are you
net ashamed to rob a woman ? I have but
little money, and that I want to defray my
expenses in visiting prisons and poor houses,
and occasionally in giving to objects of
charity. If you have been unfortunate,
are in distress, and in want.of' money, I
will give brou some.' While thus speaking
to him I discovered his countenance chan
ging, and he became deadly pale. My
God,' he exclaimed, That voice !' and im
mediately told me that he had been in the
Philadelphia Penitentiary, and had heard
me lecturing some of the prisoners in an
adjoining cell, and that he now recognized
my voice. He then desired me to,pass on,
and expressed deep sorrow for the outrage
he had committed. But I drew out my
purse, and said to him, will give you some
thing to support you till you can get into
henest employment.' He declined at first,
taking anything , until I insisted on his do
ing so for fear he might be tempted to rob
some one else before he could - get into
honest employment."
Had not Miss Dix taken possesssion of
the pistols, in, all probability they would
have been -used by her driver, and perhaps
both of them been murdered. ," That
voice" was more powerful, in subduing the
heart of a robber, than the sight of a brace
of pistols.
The Witchcraft of Women.
I want to tell you a secret. The way to
make yourself pleasing to others is to show
that you care for them. The whole world
is like a miller at Mansfield, " who cared for
nobody—no, not he, because nobody cared
for him." And the whole world will serve
you so if you give them the same cause.
Let every one, therefore, see that you do
care for them, by showing them what
Sterne so happily calls, " the small, sweet
courtesies of life," those courtesies in which
there is no parade, whose voice is too still to
tease; and which manifest themielves by
lender and affectionate looks, and little kind
acts of attention—giving others the prefe
rence in every little enjoyment at the gable,
in the field, walking, sitting or standing.
This is the spirit that givei to your time of
life, and to your sex, their sweetest charm.
It constitutes the sum total of all the witch
craft of woman. Let the world see that
your first care is for yourself, and you will
spread the solitude of the upas tree around
you, in the same way, by the emanation of
a poison which kills all the juices Of affec
tion, in its neighborhood. Such a girl may
be admired for her understanding and ac
complishments, but she will never be be
loved. The seeds of love can never grow
but under the warm and genial influence of
kind feelings and affectionate manners.
Vivacity goes a great way in young per
sons. It calls attention to her who displays
it ; and, if it then be found associated with
a generous sensibility, its execution is irre
sistible; On the contrary if it be found in
alliance with a cold, haughty, selfish heart,
it produces no further effect, except an ad
verse one. Attend to this, my daughter.
It flows from a heart that feels for you,all
the anxiety a parent can feel, and not
without the hope which constitutes the pa
rent's highest happiness. May God pro
teqt and bless you.
William Wirt to his Daughter.
A BOY CARRIED OVER NIAGARA FALLS.
A boy two years old, named James Mc-
Grath, was carried over the falls on the
18th instant. He was playing on a board
at street's' factotY, on the Canada side, in
company with an elder brother; their fa
ther-saw them, and chided the elder one
who suddenly jumped off, when the other
ono was precipitated into the stream. Ho
soon got into the rapids, and the-father hur
ried to rescue him ; but in vain—the" boy
went over the Falls. Great consternation
and horror pr'evailed in every quarter, and
this distressing incident has created such an
excitement as seldom_ arises from such a
cause, But few cases of this kind have
occurred at Niagara Falls.
HUGE BALLOON.—The Lancaster ßepub•
licon states that Mr. John Wise has nearly
cothpleted a.Mammoth Balloon, Capable of
bottling fifty thousand cubic feet of gas, and
carry up sixteen persons of one hundred
and fifty pounds each. He intends , to make
hiss first .i voyage from the city of Philadel•
phis, some time soon.
CALIFORNIA LION,—A lion over three
feet high, and nine feet in length, has beep
caught at Brannan Ranch, near Nicholus,
in California. It is very ferocious, and has
beep secured by chains. It was caught in
a pit trap, and effort was making to catch
the tnaie and cub, whiciPhave been seen in
the vicinity.
THE WELLSBOROUGH ADVERTISER.
Seasonable Hints.
A cotemporarysi , es the following advice
fOr those whom it .may concern :
• To THE 80r5. 7 -Never marry a girl
who is fond of being always in the street—
who is fond of running to'night meetings—
who has a jewelled hand and an empty
head—who will see' her mother work and
toil while she lays in bed and reads novels
or feigns.sickness—who ip ashamed to own
her mother because she dresses plain, nev
er learned grammar; or was unaccustomed
to the etiquette of the 'drawing room—who
is always complaining that she cannot get
money enough to dress like Miss So-and
sot or go to parties like Such-a-one, who
wears her shoes slipshod or has - a hole in
her stockings and is toe lazy to blend it.
Should you get-such a one depend upon it,
you will have a dirty, untidy, miserable
home and life of it. You will be kept poor
all your life. But the kind, affectionate,
tidy girl who helps her mother, is always
ready and anxious to accomodate mother,
father, brothers and sisters; who is kind to
kthe poor ; who dresses neatly and according
to her means ; who is always cheerful and
fond of accommodating others; you may
marry if you can get such,a -treasure, and
your home will be a paradise. " Boys do
you hear that ?"
To THE Grans.--i-You are all in wantof
husbands as soon as you can get suitable
ones, and that is all right and perfectly
natural. But we think, (contrary to the
old lady's opinion,)i that a bad husband is
worse than none. In choosing observe the
following rules : Never marry a fellow who
is ashamed to carry a small bundle ; who
lies in bed till breakfast and until his father
has- opened his shop, store or office, and
swept it out ; who frequents taverns, bowl;
ing saloons, prize Rights, .&c., who owes
his tailor, shoemaker, washerwoman, jew
eller, barber, printer and landlady, and
never pays his debts; who is always talk
ing about his acquaintance and condemning
them, whose tongue is always running
about nonsense, and who -thinks be is the
greatest man in the' neighborhood and yet
who every one despises and shuns. We
say never marry a fellow with-- all or any
of these qualifications, be will be sure to
treat you badly er desert you after the
honey-moon.

How to, Prevent Taking Cold.
Next to living much in the open air they
who would break the habit of taking cold,
should accustom themselves to the frequent,
or at least daily, use of cold water—not
only externally but internally.
The application of' cold water to the in
ternal surface of the human body has 'been
chiefly confined to preventing or mitigating
thirst ; Mille its application to the outside
has been regarded as a means of promoting
cleanliness. Now; its value for these two
great purposes, is !beyond human ken or
estimate, despite of the criticisms which
have of late) been brought to bear against
it. ' But important as water is to dilieje the
blood, quench the thirst, and keep the skin
mucus membrane clean, it basos I be
lieve, a much higher mission.
The higher office or'mission of cold wa
ter to the living dOmain, consists in impar
ting tone and vigor to the skin and sympa
thising membrane's. The first effect of
this sort is to keep up a healthy action in
the textures of those membranes. 'How
many there are who have eruptions not
only on the skin, but on various portions of
the mucus membrane which lines the ali
mentary canal as well as other internal
parts opening to the external air, on which
cold water acts like a charm—their skin
becoming like that of little children, both
in color and softness.
