Mr. Jordan is very popular here, -aud was our £r*t choice, but, next t.; him, no nomi nation would have met with so hearty a re sponse as that of David W'ilmot. H nomination has struck as much terror among the Black Democracy, rs did the election of Simon Cameron. Our late election in this township re. suited in a triumphant victory for the Re publican party. On the Judge cf Elec tion, which was'the real party test, our ma jority was thirty. One year ago the Black Democracy had fifty two taijority for Judge of election, and carried their entire ticket.

S„ I WF.TMOKELAN-D Co.—llen.y Jiarncst, I eighty-six years of ago, died in llempfield I township, on the 30tb nlf. He was born iin Bedford 0., in 1772. Ills father's rude i boose, one morning before day, iu tho year 1780, was attacked by five Indian warriors. , The first alarm given to the sleepers was by the barking cf their watch dog; the father ; jumped from his bed, but before he could seize bis fire anus, was shot through tho window by one of the Indians, and instant ly killed. A stranger, who had stopped | over night, was soon after shot at tho door, so that the mother, with her six helpless 1 children, was left without succor. She | however, effected the escape of four of her children through tho clap board roof of ; their cahti), and could have, escaped herself, but being possessed of that heroism so pe culiar to the frontier mothers of our race, aud being unwilling to desert her two voting or sons—Henry cmd a siitl younger trothpr, who were in bed below—she surrendered j bet self and two boys to the Indians. The dead were then scalped, aud the house rob bed; but, while the warriors were engaged i in securing tlfiHr plunder, they left their ■ trophies— the scalps—ou a Dutch chest, l and the wife, unwilling to leave Lcr bus t baud's scalp in their ruthless bands, an! j being unobserved Ly her captors, slipped it.! t bohiud the chest, so that it was never re | gained by the Indians. But the stranger's j f scalp having two crowns, and the British ' ;at that day paying their allies a premium j for'each, was severed in two, that they j • might secure the fall price Of their bloody deeds. After this, the Indians took up | their trail for Detroit, leading their prison- i , rrs, who suffered much on the way from fa.- j ! tigue atnl hunger. But the mother, who j j carried tier youngest Sun nearly the whole ! ; way, fared bettor than she would otherwise | have done, as the journey was not accom- j phshe.l with the usual rapidity of the red j Ban, owing to'the extreme age of two of j the warriors. At Detroit the prisoners were given into the hands of the British, J with ufioni they remained about eightceo u; they were rxchaog d, and re tumad to their home iu Bedford county.— j Here Henry remained, until Lis twenly ! third year, when, being married, he sought out for himself a uetv home in West more- ! land county, and has continued there from ; that tnuc tip to the day of his death, upon j tho same fatm. lie died in his 80th year having had eight children, fifty grandchild ren, and one great grand child—nearly all j cf whom survive him A MAN IN TIIE RAPIDS OF NIAGARA. —Gn Tuesday week, a man named K.

Ou reaching the bottom, ho slipped and fell ! into the water, just above the bridge, aud when discovered, was thirty or forty rods below the bridge, near the shore, rolling over and over, borne along by the resistless ! current, until he caugiit hold of a large 1 : rock, and after some bard struggles suc ceeded in reaching Joe top. The alarm was immediately given in the neighborhood, and ic was soon decided there was no way 1 of reaching him but by means of a rope ladder. This was immediately procured, and after much hesitation, delay and alter- : ■ aiio-.i, occasioned by tho difficulty of deter- ' mining where to pffice it, inasmuch as the ! . man could not be seen from the projecting I bank over his head, it was lowered to the j | distance of perhaps a hundred feet, and he- ! earns entangled anioug the rocks aud trees. ! It was at once decided that some one nuts g down and disentangle i\ iu a few mo ments, \Y iliurd 15. Coburn, porter of t'.c : Lidow Hotel, volunteered iris services, and : proceeded to the place where the ladder I 1 was attached to the trees. Ho nee led as- j sistatice, and soon two more brave men, Anthony Shiiey and Nat Crane offered to !go down. The three worked bravely for more than an hour in conducting tire lad- ' ( der, while men at the top carefully let it down. At length, tho waving of handkor- I chiefs and cheering on the Canada side, izi j dies tod to us that the man had sprung 10 the shore from the rock, arid had Lc-gun to ascend the ladder. Cautiously, and with a ■ firm grasp and step be climbed up throe bun- I dred feet, aud was greeted by the shouts 1 . and acclamations of the hundreds of spec- ' , tators wno had assembled to witness the ex- i i citing scene. # SOMETHING FOR THE DOUGHFACES.— !

In a late number of the Louisville Journal, appears a long and able communication, signed A Ken tucky Lawyer," reviewing this case, which, the Journal says, was vvritto-u by one of the ablest meu and soundest jurists in that State. In tho course of tho review, the writer thus pronounces; •"The majority f the Court decided in this case, thai, the plaiuiiff Scott, being a negro, could unt he a citizen of Missouri, . that therefore.the Court had no jurisJie i tiou or power to.decide the ease on its mor as, and it was accordingly di-iaiD-ed for ■j want of jurisdiction.

THOSE OLD LINE WHIGS.

'i be ; people ean have no mm.; faith in the protn- I ists of government officers relative to Kan j sas. The plot of making it slate territory j Wit# conceived with a purpose, and, if pos j sible, that purpose will be curried out. It I bus been a swindle on the people from the | begtntmig, and will b<- to toe end. When : the liuc limiting slavery wj, repealed, it was said that tire people should frame their j own institutions-. Even that apparent ness has been abandoned. Mr Buchanan , and the Supreme Court now say, that .he j people of the territory have no right to pro i iithit slavery; and Mr. Buchanan further I ' Su y s > that the afia rs of the territory must be carried on under the authority of the : barbarous laws of the bogus ivgt-iu; u'c. la tuc face o> these facts, winch doom ICansas | to slavery, Mr Buchanan and hi- supporters in the conspiracy of extending shivery, would sing a syren song to lull the awaken ed indignation of the people, about Walker -.oiog to Kansas to see justice done to ail! Their jnstii-e is of the kind that the vvulf gives to the lamb. Their determination Is to fasten the tetters of slavery on our ter ritories wherever possible, and their hypoc risy in denying it but adds insult to the in jury they are inflicting on the iue# of thy tree bt-atei. Their action-condemn them beyond all reasonable doubt; and the evi dence of their designs is sufficiently strong te convict them before any Court of Justice in the world. Ui the real merits of their actions let them L judged. Justice Lewis has been conwel- I le 1, says the Pittsburg Cazeftr., by the out side pressure upon him, and the almost cer tain prospect of defeat, to decline the norn- j illation ior re-election to the Supreme Bench. His ostensible reason for declining j is, tii.it iie lives in' the same county with the ; Looofoco candidate for Governor. Vv e arc sorry to lose the anticipated plea- i su*e O; defeating this political Judge. Ills j unrighteous and pitiful ilecisioa in the I'assuiore \\ iiiiam-on case made l.im the embodiment; of Locofoeoism in its pro- i Slavery position, an i the people ought to j have iiad the ehancu of rebuking In n for j that decision. But the tiring vs of the par tv tiaro not meet, fairly, the issues th y hare raised. We present a candidate for Governor who fiist put the ball iu motion against the extension >fSlavery, while they, when they have chanced to fall upon a can didate who has not scrupled to carry the principles of his party upon the bench, hur ry him out of the way; and they will en deavor, in every possible wry, to shirk the real issue of the campaign. The policy thus adopted indicates fully the timidity tint has seized upon that party. It betrays what they would faia conceal—an appro heiisiou ot defeat. Tho apprehension, we take it, is not without foundation.

GOV. POLLOCK AND HIS TRA DUCERS.—The fact that the Union State (J mven'ion, in the luirrv and excitement which occurred at the end of their session, overlooked the customary resolution endor sing Gov. PoI,LOCK'S administration, fur nishes the Patriot and Union with a text for half a column of low, sneaking sialic on the Governor personally. When the fuel has been known, and pnb iiely announced for more than a year, that Gov. POLLOCK absolutely declined being a candidate lor re-nomination, it continues to reiterate the known falsehood, that he eould 'Rot oLt.iin-) a re-nomination. This nny not be, but looks very much iiko wil ful lying for the love of the thing. That such a resolution would have passed unani mously the Patriot knows as well as wo do: that its omission w is accidental they are as well aware. But because Gov. POLLOCK foiled them in their attempt to plunder the treasury through the public printing, by interposing his veto, they seek iheir revenge by bespattering hint with their fiilth "Cease vipers, you gnaw at a file." The honor, purity and sterling integrity of J.VMLS 1 CLLOCK is too firmly fise-i in the minds of the penpla of Pennsylvania to he in the least affected by the insane palings of disappointed cupidity. 3 "Xo roguo ever felt the halter draw VV itii good opinion of the taw." lltrr is'jurg Telegraph.
