REMOVAL OF THE STATE CAPITAL --The indications are that the present Legisla ture will remove the Sttite Capital from Harrisburg to Philadelphia, unless the people of the rural districts protest ear nestly.against it. It is simply a ques tion:of bargain•and sale. "There is mo ney in it," and that, disgraceful. as the fact.may be, is just what makes the mare of legislation go. Philadelphia has of fered,a million of dollori toward erect ing new•buildinge, on condition that she gets the , Capital. This ie whit: appears openly And above board. How mach is to be paidlor the votes of the members in.addition is notlstatect.but the general admission:of those conversant with 'the matter. about the Legislature, admit that "there Is money in it." ' A resolu tion accepting the million dollars' has atriody•passed the Senate. The com mittee Int 'borers , at Harrisburg confl dentlyconnt on hiving secured over 'lO voterffor* it in 'the` flonse. How they were "secured" we' leave those familiar with modern legislation' to judge. We have not heard a single reason, political or geographic:al, urged in favor of 'the removal, that ought to have the weight of a straw with an honest man. Phila delphia wants centralization. Her ambi tion always has been to rule the State-1. to hive the legislation all her own way —and how can she do this so thorough ly as to , hivi the Senators and Repre sentatives of the State right under her local influence? To accomplish this she can well afford to spend a couple of millions. With the capital at Phila delphia, there will be no necessity for her' to go to the expense of sending a mob to ilarrisburg to influence the election of United States Senators by intiaildation. She can have the neces. eery Wei mustered at an hour's notice I —Laneaster Express. TRIM SLEEP Toarraza.—The remains of Henry Clay—after ,an interment of twelve years—were removed last week, upon the death of his wife, and placed side, by side with hers, beneath the beautiful monument erected to his mem ory in the Lexington Cemetery. It is stated that the wreath of immortellea placed upon his coffin by his friend, the kifted 'poetess, Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, prior to , the removal of the bodY from Washiogtoe, was found to be in an al most perfect state of preservation, being but little faded.; while .a gold ring, bear ing the initials "J. W.," which rested near the wreath, was as bright as though jest from a jtmeler's shop. Haan Moon CIIRRENCY.—The bill, which has been passed by the Senate, will probably be adopted by the House, substituting a bronze coinage for the present nickel cents, to be composed of 95 percent, copper, Ilan 5 per eent. tio. There 'are to be one—cent and two—cent pieces- I —the one—cent pieces to be a le gal tender to the amount of ten canto, and the two—cent pieces to be a legal tender to the amount of twenty cents. Counterfeiting these, coins if Loin pun ishable by fine and impreonment. fir The pair of great guns Which Government is having cost—one in New Jersey and the other in Pennsyl vania—are to carry shot weighing about one thoniandS pounds each, which will penetrate the Iron armor of vessels as a rigs •ball will go through a sheet of tin. The%weight ofiach will bS in the vicin ity of 110,000 pounds, and the cost of each about. $30,000. They are to be smooth bore. I*-Voth branches of the Legislature have - passed the bill providing for a special election'throughout the State on the first Tuesday in August next, at which the people shall decide whether the proposed amendment to the Consti tution permitting soldiers to vote shall be adopted. The Legislature Is to meet on the '23d: day of August to receive the returns. W. Kelley, "Surgeon and Flealth Officer" at Natches, in a recent official report of the sanitary condition of that city, says that "a very cosy heir's° on Pine street was found to be occupied by a widow, three daugh ters aiiditeieri handsome little pigs.

The men were in a shocking condition ; sick and dying. None of the healthy and able-bodied persons were sent down. It is said,hu manity induced Commissioner Onid to send these men into our lines. The Columbus (Georgia) Inquirer gives the following reasons. It says : If some arrangment for the exchange of prisoners is not speedily affected the confederacy will derive but little benefit from it. A few days ago, while the cars were at Andersonville, the editor learn ed that the mortality among the Yan kee prisoners at that point was frightful. One of the , guard informed him that fifty two died on the previous day, and that since their arrival the average of deaths per day was thirty-five. Stnall-pox, pneumonia and diarrhcea are taking them off by wholesale. The cartel takes no account of dead men, and hence we trust that din exchange may be resumed twifiire the' ranks of these eight thousand prisoners are much further depleted. gap• The Cleveland Barrel Manufact ory of Scovillels Luce is now turning out flour barrels which are made wholly by machinery, and they are all tested by hot `water, and by blowing hot air into them with a bellows. An engine of 25 horse power runs the whole maelidery. There are various machines for planing, dressing, trussing, of the staves, which are taken in the, rough. The head ings are prepared by machinery. A pro per saw cuts them in circular form and turns them into proper • shape, and the necessary machine is on hand for the purpose of dowelling. Even the hoop, in all its requirements, is looked after. it is cut oil, beveled, and punched by a piece of mechanism so simple in its op eration that a boy can perform the nec essary work. ®' A terrible tragedy occurred in Jefferson county, Ky. Two friends, Heybeck and Frank, bad been strolling through the garden of the former, who cut some vine slips for the other. They Oen went, Into the parlor. The first intimation the family had of anything unusual was the spectacle of Heybeck fleeing from the house bleeding, Frank, with ,a huge bowie knife, being in pur suit. Frank overtook the other, stabbed him thrice in the throat, killing him on the spot, and then cut his own throat so fearfullY that he instantly died. The cause of tho quarrel is not known, and never, perhaps, will be. oir One day last week two colored men whom George Richardson of New villa Pa., had procured as recruits at Chambersbnrg, were arrested at the De pot while on their way_to Philadelphia to join , the army. It appears that they were slaves of a loyal man in Maryland, and were arrested by order of the Prov ost Marshall at Chambersbuurg, and re. turned to their . masters. The affair crea ted some excitement at the time, and has elicited considerable discussion pro and con. ar The plan of confining the desig nation of the national banks tolinmbers, Instead of allowing them to chooso their own names, has; it appear!, been aban doned. The "National Exchange," of New York, and the "Delaware County National Bank," of Chester, Pennsylva nia, have been anthorized, sad will pro ceed to do business, in accordance with the provisions of the law, under their respective titles. tfiriThe colored periling in Washing. ton who were put oil:' a railway car . a few days since, bane begun a proseen• tion against the conductor, with a view of having the legal question involved settled in the Courts. • Senator Bever. dy jOhnsou stated in the Senate the other day, that there could , be no doubt on the point raised—that it is perfectly clear that colored people In the District cannot be'turned out of any cars. sr What to do with the emancipated negro is speedily answering itself. In Maryland laborers are so scarce that it is only by abolishing slavery and en. couraging European free immigration that the agriculturist can till the soil and gather his crops. There'is a project on foot to send a ship from Baltimore expressly for a load of farm' laborers from Great Britain and the Continent. War Scurvy and scrofulus eruptions will soon cover the bodies of those brave men who are fighting their cbtintry's battles. Night air, bad food, and drenching rains will make sad havoc with the strongest, therefore let every man supply himself with Holloway's Ointment, it is a certain core for every kind of skin disease.

In 1858, officer Van Ness, attached to the police force of San Francisco, rescued a man from drowning. The res cued man gave his name as Charles Bernard Egerson, and offered to hand somely reward him, bat Mr. Van Ness refused to accept anything forhis humane act. A short time since Mr. Egerson died in Liverpool, and left officer Van Ness a legacy of $50,000. Two erring damsels at Youngstown, 0., whose charms bad allured two mar ried men from their families, were taken from their bed one night last week• by a party of infuriated women, stripped of the garmenas which women usually wear arrayed in tar and feathers,and let loose in the streets. The Bangor Times says a young lady threw herself into the Kenduskew, near Morris' Mills, Maine, a few days since. She stink once, bet on coming up •gave ' an involuntary scream, which called the attention of persons near by, who res cued • her with some difficulty. Disap pointed affection is the alleged cabs°. The Springfield Union says that a farmer came into that city a day or two ago with over a ton of good butter, which he disposed of readily at forty cents a pound, remarking that that was enough; and that his neighbors had more which they would like to sell at the same price. A cow died at Oswego, last week, of a disease which puzzled the most ex perienced of vaccine physicians. A post mortem examination disclosed the fact that her stomach contained articles that would assist in furnishing both a jewel ry store and a hardware shop, including one small steel watch-chain, twelve in ches in length, and five ounces of ten penny nails. Three of the largest brains in modern times were those of Drs. Chalmers and Abercrombie, and Mr. Tbackeray ; all of whom died suddenly and alone in bed. Anti•butter-eating associations are being formed in various parts of the country. The present price adds a great many involuntary members to the asso ciations.
