AWFUL STATE OF AFFAIRS

The mob have actual possession of thu
Capitol ofPennsylyania, and it is impossi
bic for the Legislature to meet, or the blu
siness in the departments Of Government
to proceed.
AT the hour of half past two this after
noon, as appointed for the meeting of the
House, the Speaker deputed Mr.. Spack
man TO adjourn the House till tomorrow
The hOll was filled with the rioters. who
seized Mr.. S., and forced him to retire.
when they all rushed out, and he was
barrel y enabled to escape without injury.
In the scutlie, the doors were broken and
the hall otherwise mutilated.
The mob have now possession of the
town, and mob law reigns supreme. The
officers ofthe law make no attempt to put
down the disgracefuI scene No life is
safe, but the state authorities we under
stand, have taken all the measures posi-
bic under the circumstances for the pre-
soWotIon of life and property.
We appeal TO the people of Pennsylya-
MA to defend their laws. The reign of
anarchy has been continued long enough.
II liberty be worth an effort, let that ef
fort promptly be made.
Inc loco-ioco papers, we see, are pur-
sung their usual deceptive course in the
accounts they give ofthe scenes hero, and

entatlves of the people, who will shortly.
o doubt, be obliged by the mob to adjourn
nd go home to their constituents, if our
count bonot correct, or if any thing, not
highly colored as the actual truth. In. {

DEFENCE OF THE FRONTIER

Gen. Wool Of the U. S. army having
conferred with Gov. Kent. has gone up
the Northern frontier through Moose head
Lake, in company with DR.. jackson the
State geologist. They will keep company
80 far as is consistent With these different
objects. Gen. Wool will pass around the
frontier to see where military posts are
wanted. F -. + !.
We are glad to see that the efforts Of
Gov. Kent and Of our delegation in Con-
gress have not been unavailing.
j. We have good reason to believe that the
interchangeable efforts Of Col. Davies have
had most beneficial effect in making the
rights of Maine fully understood at Wash
ington. Although Mr. Buchanan. the chair
man of the committee on foreign affairs, has
opposed the bill to direct the President to
run the line, he admist that the claim o.
Maine is clear as sunlight and must be
maintained by the general government
In this opinion evsry.. Senator concurred
Hero then is great point gained. Mr.
Buchanan has promised to make report
in accordance with these opinions.-Ken-

before, and thought he had left his gun dis

pulled the trigger with a merry laugh, and

Dreadful A man by the name Of Van
Buren,, at Washington City, on the 25th
inst. who had for considerable time labor
ed under species of insanity, met with
an accident which should serve as a eau
ton. Nothing would satisfy him but a
ride on very tall hobby horse, at the same
time insisting that his friends Cam, Amos,
and Calhoun, should keep the nag in mo-
ton. whilst jackson held the string to pre-
vent it from capsizing; but on the above
day, by some means, the string broke, and
Van was completely turned over, bringing
down with him in his fall, number Of his
friends. He fell directly on his head; but
fortunately, his fall was little broken by
his skull coming directly on Calhoun's toes,
which were dreadfully, mashed, and it is
believed he will be crippled during life.
Cams brains we're entirely knocked out, and
the rest were badly hurt. saas
Doctors Webster and Clay were called
in, who, after careful examination of the
parties, reported that Van had received a
conc ussion of the brain which they thought
might be Of service to him aud restore him
to reason--that Cams loss of brains would
be of no consequence to him. as he would
do as well without the little he had, as he
ever had done.
