FOR CORG RERS.—We Understand that Robert Spear, Esq., of our borough will be a candidate to represent this District in the next Congress. The west end of the county, it appears, is determined to assert her rights, and Mr. Spear's friends have strong hopes of his nomination in the Whig coon. ty Convention. I=2!

Cass will be the leader of the Democratic forces, in the campaign of 1848. The military complexion of this ticket will proba bly, we think, be calculated to affect the action of the Whig nominating Convention; and Scott and Taylor stock is supposed to have advanced a few, within the past week. Gen. William O. Butler re ceived the nomination for Vice President. , We have been requested to call the attention of the proper authorities to the condition of the gut. ters in different parts of the borough. It is neces sary, for the health and comfort of all, during this warm weather, that the gutters, streets, lanes and alleys, in every quarter of the borough, should be kept thoroughly cleansed from all filth and dirt. Especially the gutters that arc covered with plank, I where they are " fair to look upon, but within they aro full of" &c. Tits Gtmicr timr. STORM which occured on last Friday afternoon, in the eastern portion of this county, was probably the severest that this section of country was ever visited with. For several miles the grain -fields, orchards, gardens, tke., suf. (bred serious damage. Near 100 feet of the Phila. delphis. and Columbia railroad embankment, near Leman Place, was so much injured as to render the road impassable, and considerable damage was also done to the road some distance below. Arrange. mcnts were promptly made to convey passengers lover the breaks, and but little inconvcnienco was suffered by the tra telling public. The Editor of the Farmers' Library has memo rialized Congress for an appropriation to be applied, under the directions of the Stole Governments re spectively, to the establishment of institutions for instruction in Geology, Mineralogy, and Vegetable and Animal Physiology—in Civil Engineering as applied to Road-making, Bridge.building, and other rural Architecture ; and also to instructions in the mechanical Principles on which depend the Labor saving properties and efficiency of Agricultural implements and machinery,—an appropriation, which in a word, by insuring a more skilful cm• ployment of Agricultural labor and capital, will so far auginetd our solid wealth and power, and thus promote the welfare and "true glory" of our coun try-. The editor strongly urges Congress to do some. thing for this too much neglected interest of the nation. Tne Cnors.—Tlie NVhcat crops of Illinois, are very promising The Wheat crops of Virginia never presented a finer appearance than at present. The editor of the Howard District Advocate, Maryland, has been shown several stalks of Rye grown on the farm of Thomas McCrea, Esq., of that place, measuring 7 feet 6 inches high. In Washington and Cecil counties, the Wheat has headed out, and the harvest promises to be unusu ally abundant, and two weeks earlier than usual.— The account+ from every part of the State are of the same character. The Trenton (New Jersey) Gazette says, the lute rains and the warm sun have done and arc doing everything for vegetation that could be asked for. Every kind of crop is growing rapidly. Every loaf and stem ecems full of life, almost to burst. ing." The Reading Gazette says, our farmers from all parts of the country tell us that the prospects of abundant crops of grass and grain were never better than at present. The editor of the Mercer Luminary, says:— Within the past week, we have visited different sections of the country : and it is with pleasure we can state from personal observation, that the crops of grain look well—very well--in fact, we have never known them give a more promising appear• ante. The other day in pegging through that beautiful and fertile portion of our country, West river, we noticed with pleasure, says the Annapolis Repub. lican, the fine appearance of the grain crops. We are informed that throughout the county, the crepe never looked better or promised a more abundant yield. HARRISBURG FURNACE.—The Harrisburg Tele. graph says: It gives us pleasure to state that the finnace of kle.thwertior Porter, in this place, which was burnt about seven weeks since, has been so far rebuilt and repaired as to be in blast again, and is said to a ark admirably 014 e lUcrrib abroab. SEVEN DAYS LATER. FROM EUROPE. From M'Makine Model American Courier, By tho arrival of the steamship Caledonia at Boston, we are in possession of ono week's later news from - 125 The Elections in France have closed, and the re sult is the entire success of the Conservative party. In the Department of Seine, Lamartinc raccived the highgst number of votes. The National As sembly consists of 900 Deputies from all parts of the Nation. On the 4th of May, the day fixed for the opening of the National Assembly, the mem. hers elect met, when the Provisional Government formally resigned into its hands the power that had been conferred upon it. One of the first acts of the Assembly was to issue a proclamatiou, de claring to the world, in the name of the French people, that the Republic proclaimed on tlth 24th February, shall remain the form of Government in France. - 133 _ - 55 - - 54 - 156 - 53 In Ireland, Smith O'Brien and John O'Connell have merged their past differences, and agreed to work harmoniously together in the geed cause for the future. This will give •` Repeal" a new im pulse. In the North of Italy things do not look as en couraging as before. The Lombards, so success ful at first against the Austrians, have met with two or three reverses. But Charles Albert is still in the field - - 179 . - 38 - . 33 The English Arms have been torn down from the British Consulate in Vunise. The Consul im med ia tely left. There has been fighting at Cracow, and the Poles were forced to give way to tae disciplined forces of Russia. The great German Diet, made up of Delegates from all the Germanic powers, has proposed a fun. datnental law for the constitution of a German Empire, with one imperial head. A treaty offensive and defensive, is reported to have been entered into between Russia, Sweden and Denmark. If the German troops enter Chios wig, Denmark will, if such a treaty really exists, be sustained by these two powers. In this event, a serious war between two powerful sections of Europe will be inevitable. It is not believed that Austria will constitute a part of the German Em pire if one is formed. She is gathering up her strength, for a determined struggle to regain do minion over Northern Italy. At last accounts, Venice was blockaded by sea entirely, the city was in a state of anarchy, and the people in general and deep distress. In Bohemia, the German flag has been torn down. The favorite idea of the insurgent parties is the formation of a great Western Salvonie state, in which Russia would be included. Lamartine will probably be the first President of be new French Republic. In Poland, the most frightful excesses continue ECM In Gallacia, Moldovia, and %Vallcicle, the people are in a frightful state of insurrection. At Prea. burg, the cruelties practiced against the Jews are truly shocking. At Posen, the guerilla war with the seythemen continues to be waged in a fearfully bloody manner. The U. S. mail steamer Berman Arrived at New York on Sunday, with a day's later news from abroad. The French National Assembly met at noon on the sth of May, when an election for Pre. sident of that body took place. M. Buchey was chosen. FROM MEXICO AND OREGON We copy the following telegraphic despatch from the North American and United States Gazette. PETERSBURG, May 24. The Express package containing New Orleans papers of the 18th inst., bus just come to hand. The schooner May arrived at New Orleans, on the morning of the 18th, from Vera Cruz. A quorum has at last been assembled at Quere taro, and were awaiting the arrival of the Commis sioners from the United States to commence their deliberations. The opinions in relation to the peace question arc various and conflicting. The following is extracted from a letter dated Queretaro, April 27th, at 11 o'clock at night : "The people arc becoming weary with sufrering the oppression and sport of petty tyranny. This, at least, is the case with the Mexicans, and by the omnipotent exercise of will, discarding what is called the General Government of the Nation, es. tablished at. Queretaro, it has prostrated to the earth its treacherous oppressors. " At 9 o'clock on the night of this day, without any resistance, it proclaimed the only plan which, in the present circumstances, can save the coun try, viz: 'war, and war without truce or quarter, until an honorable peace is conquered. "Such is the programme of this happy revolu. tion, at the head of which are the distinguished Generals Almonte, 13ustamente and Paredes., to whose voice all who arc Mexicans rather than par. tisane, will respond. The tocsin of liberty has sounded at last. Sons of Hidalgo and Iturbido awake! The invincible hand of Providence points out to you the road by which every portion of the globe will occupy its true place. Mexicans fulfil your destiny !" American deserters arc continually arriving at Queretaro. During the last three days twenty presented themselves to the Mexican government, and were incorporated in the San Patricio com pany. The garrison of Qucretero is composed of 89.0 men of all arms. A wager of ten thousand dollars has been made for and against peace, in which several of the deputies arc concerned. The same correspondent says that fierera has been nominated as President, and that a majority of the deputies will vote fur him. The Yucatan schooner Aparecido had also ar rived at New Orleans, with dates from Compeachy to the 2d, and from Sisal to the nth inst. The dates from Merida are only to the 29th, not as Into as already published. ST. Louis, May 21. Indian War in Oreg on.—By the arrival of Maj. Meek, from the West, 'we have late and most im portant news from Oregon, where all is confusion and bloodshed between the Whites and Indiana— Four powerful tribes have united, and commenced a deadly war. Four battles took place in January, in three of which the W bites were successful in beat. ing their enemy. Five hundred Whiles fought a body of two thousand Indians a whole day, when the Indians retreated, after wounding a great number of the Whites. On the 29th of November,a most horrid and brutal massacre was committed by the Cayuse Indians, at the Presbyterian Mission, at the Wal lah-Wallah valley. Dr. White, his man and wife, with eighteen others, were illed, and sixty or seventy taken prisoners. The houses of the Mts. sionaries and their neighbors were burned to the ground. Tho unfortunate prisoners were subs°. quently ransomed, through the agency of Peter Sken Ogden, chief factor of the Hudson's Bay Company. Major Meek pusbed up the river yesterday, on! his way to Washington, with despatches for thel Government, asking for immediate aid on the part of the Oregon settlers. WASHINGTON MONUMENT The corner stone of the National Monument to the memory of Gen. WASHINGTON is to be laid, with imposing ceremonies, in the city of Washington, on the 4th of July next. The Monument Associ ation extend their subjoined :nritotion to the peo ple of the United States to be present on the occa sion : NATIONAL WASHINGTON MONUMENT OFFICE, t May 3, 1348. s The National Washington Monument Associa. lion have already, through the hoard of managers, made public, the design to lay the corner-stone of the National Washington Monument, on the 4th of July next; and the undersigned have been ap. pointed a committee to make the necessary at ! rangements for that occasion, which is one that appeals; directly to the patriotism and to the heart of every American citizen. Throughout this wide country, every one is, or ought to be, emulous to unite in this lasting token of veneration ; which is to aid in transmitting to posterity the memory of him whose fame has spread throughout the world, and whose name is made the watchword in every struggle for liberty. We therefore deem it expedient—looking to the concourse which will assemble in this city—to learn by correspondence as far as it is practicable, what can be done to ren der the ceremonies imposing, and suited to an ob. ject so august. With this view, we desire to re ceive from every part of the Union information as i to the number of persons who will be here ; and whether they will come as associations, civil or military. We invite the citizens of the States to co-oper ate with us in the general design which we now submit. As the monument is national, a delegation is requested from each State and Territory, with a banner inscribed with the great seal of State, and some other appropriate device, to be hereafter de posited in the monument, with a suitable inscrip. tion to perpetuate to the latest posterity a know. ledge of their origin and use, and the names and services of the delegations that bore them. If wrought by females, there names to be recorded and perpetuated in the same manner—with state. ments of the times and places of presentation to the respective delegations. A military corps is invited from each State, so as to form, when united, one great military and civic procession. Washington was " first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his coun. trymen." Combined with these, we propose to form in the procession the masonic, odd.fellows', firemen's, and temperance associations ; the vari ous trades and pursuits, with proper devices and banners. Literary and scientific associations are invited to attend, together with the schools of the District, under the care of their respective teachers. The different State delegations, military corps, societies, associations and schools are requested to hand to the marshal a roll containing the name of each person in attendance, to be recorded and per. petuated as in other cases. As the board of managers consider the fund contributed by our liberal and patriotic fellow.eiti. zens for the erection of the monument too sacred to be diverted and expended for any other object, we can only promise the visitors on that day a hearty welcome, good water, and beautiful grounds fur encampment. The editors and publishers of newspapers through out the United States see requested to publish this communication, and are invited to attend the cere. mony of laying the corner-stone of the monument, and to bring with them one number of their paper containing this article, to be deposited in the mon ument. If a personal attendance aholl be ineon. venient, they will be pleased to send their papers to the general agent as soon as practicable, that sea sonable arrangements may be made for their being placed in the monument. To carry out this general design, we earnestly desire communications from every part of the Union, without delay, to be addressed to Elisha %Vhitticscy, general agent, who will deliver them to Joseph H. Bradley, chief marshal. Signed by the Contrniitee. KEEINNO COOL. IN HOT WCATllTlR.—Chambers' Journal gives the following well.known devices in hot climates and seasons : The means in present use for artificial refrige. ration are very various, some of them very into. resting. Among these, the employment of porous earthenware may receive an early place. The Moors introduced into Spain this luxury, in the shape of very elegant vases, wonderfully light and porous. Water kept in these,' became rapidly deliciously cool, and from some peculiarity in the process of the manufacture of the vessels, it ac quired, in addition, a very agreeable flavor. In Egypt and in India, and in most sultry regions, this expedient is at the present time a very preva lent one. It has also for some time been eaten. sively employed amongst ourselves—porous wine, butter, and water coolers, of many elegant designs, being now produced at our pottoriom. But porous ware keeps water coolest where the clinic is hot test, the very increment of heat being made to re. act in the production of cold by rapid evaporation. The Moorish names for their earthen jugs was Al &mem, or B ucarros. The Arabs burnt up with the eternal fire of their scorching country, make use of goat skins for water vessels, which suffer a little water slowly to exude, and thus keep the re. maindcr comparatively cool. A common method of cooling wines in India, is one which will almost appear a paradox: the bottle is wrapped in flannel wetted with water, and placed directly in the rays of the sun; violent evaporation ensues, and the wine actually becomes cold. It is a common plan, too, for sailors, in warm latitudes to cover their wine with cloths constantly wetted. Apartments are cooled on a similar principle, and an abundance of water is frequently dashed against the walls with the most gratclut effect. In India, also the cold, so dangerous and penetrating on a clear night, is often applied in a peculiar manner for the par. pose of freezing water. Near Calcutta, in an open plain, there are large shallow excavations made in the ground, and filled with straw; upon this many rows of small, shallow porous pans, filled with wa. ter, are placed atstinset. During the night ice forms in thin cakes upon the surface of the pans ; it ix carefully removed before sunrise, carried to a pro. per repository, and pounded into a mass there, and then covered over with blankets. This manacla tore can only be pursued during the months of ' , December, January, and February ; and in the dia. (riot where the ice is formed in this manner, it is never produced naturally. This ingenious process must wholly disappear before the new import of Wenham Lake ice. What a revolution has com merce effected in India, when we remember that early travellers in that country were looked upon as liars and imposters for asserting the possibility of solidifying water into ice!" There is now no doubt that the crop both of Maryland and Ohio, in 1848, will be less than an average one. Since the stagnation in the Tobacco market, caused by the political changes in Europe, letters from different parts of the Tobacco growing districts of Maryland have been received, express_ ing the determination of the planters to make less Tobacco then usual. The circulars sent by some of our commission merchants to their friends in Ohio, have had the effect of checking the prepare. tions for largo crops in that State, and the probabi. lity is that the crop there will be under the ave. rage. 511/OR GENERAL Pizzow.—General orders bavo been hewed from the War Department, containing the President's review of the finding.of the Court of Inquiry in the case familiarly knotin as that of " General Pillow and the two howitzers." The President decides that there was an unintentional error of a material fact in the finding of the Court . lie finds nothing in the ease for which General Pillow deserves censure, and. concurs with the Court and Gen. Scott that there is nothing in the case which requires further military proceedings. The President acquits the young officers wt.:, took the howitzers from their carriages and desired to retain them as trophies, of any criminal or impro per motive. = DEATH WARRANT.—The Harrisburg Union sap : The Governor has issued a warrant for the execu tion, on Friday, the 29th of September next, of Harris Bell, convicted in Wayne county, of the murder of Mrs. Eliza Williams, wife of the Rev.

Assured by several judicious friends that our community is not apprized of the efforts of the American Colonization Society, to extend the boon of freedom to a multitude of slaves proffered grat uitously to its care, we feel it en imperative duty to state that no less than four expeditions are now afloat, bearing nearly 500 emancipated emigrants to Liberia. An equal number anxiously await our ability to send them. To secure at once their free. slum and settlement in the new Republic, we soli cit the means of meeting the generous overtures of some masters, and the bequests of others. This may be effected at the small outlay of $5O for each emigrant, the estimated expense of the voyage to, and settlement in Liberia. Neatly two hundred of the slaves to be liberated, are on one estate and must be sent speedily to prevent the forfeiture of their freedom. Collections in the several churches aro therefore respectfully suggested. All other contri butions will be gratefully received at the office, or by P. T. Junes, Esq., Treasurer, 85 South Front Street. ELLIOTT CRIMSON, Corresponding Secretary. rl Editors in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, are respectfully requested to give the above one or more insertions. == LAKE SUPARIOR IRO:..—The steamer Champion arrived at Detroit, from Sant Saint Marie, on Satur day week, bringing several bars of Lake Superior Iron, manufactured at the Jackson Iron Company's Works. The iron is pronounced by competent judges to be of a very superior quality. 'rho bars are hammered from the rough ore, and what is ex traordinary, is so pure that it is ready fur use with out further process. The agent who came down, states that the texture of the iron is unusually fine, and with a slight process can easily be converted to the best article of cast steel. The present facili ties for manufacturing arc two forges, capable of turning out half a ton a day, but several companies are erecting works on different locations for exten sive operations the present season. The works arc located eight miles from the Lake, on Carp river; and the ore is found four miles above, ita inexhausti ble quantities. The surface of the country is un dulating and covered with heavy pine timber. The ore is found in fragments on the surface and in perpendicular cliffs from one to two hundred feet in height. = St. Joseph's, Mo., is crowded with emigrants on their route to California and Oregon. Two hun dred and ten wagons had crossed the river at that place. and forty or fifty at the ferry above St. Jo seph's. The emigration this year will not be so large as that of last year—probably not numbering more than five hundred men. The Mormons arc said to be crossing in large numbers at Council Bluffs, and from 1500 to 2000 wagons aro expected to leave in a few weeks for the Great Salt Lake. Major Harris recently arrived at St. Joseph from the front camp of the emigrants. They were all getting on well, except the last. some 35 miles from the town—this party was without a leader, at a place distant from water, and nearly all of their cattle lost—either driven off by Indians, or strayed away in search of water. Major Harris is to go out to California, iii company with Col. Fremont, who was expected at St. Joseph by the 15th of this month. :=Z Why should not Louie Phißippe not resume the teaching of the languages?—Because he is not master of the French A chaplain in one of our State Prisons was asked by a friend how loia parishioners were.

MEM GILZIAT CONTENTION of Purchasers of Elegant and CHEAP CLOTHING, at prices extremely low, is still in session at the Philadelphia Wardrobe,IOSCHEST NUT Street. The session of this Convention is conducted with uns Parraholefi harmony, and the amount of business done is immense. The President—P. R. MINEILLE, assisted by numerous Vice Presidents, presides with great efficiency; and the Treasurer is kept constantly busy with' receiving money. The Delegates to this Convention are in fits of delight. and have unanimously consented to nominate P. R. M'Nrat.mt, as GENERAL TAYLOR, Of the United States. If every one ofthe 100,000 patrons of the Philadelphia Wardrobe, should vote for Liar-.p. R. TPNe ale, will prove a troublrsome rival Mother Pre. sidential competitors, We are happy to say that at this Convention all sets of Delegates are received, and no-p arty men's money is accounted just as good as anybody's money. This mag nanimity is highly extraordinary Phila., May 47, 1642.-2 t G. A. SCIIWAIIZMAN
