GREAT EXCITEMENT ON TIE
FRONTIER.

A transaction took place at Alburg on
the night Of the 18th, which has produced
an unparalleled excitement on the From
tier. James Grogan, who formerly resi-
ded in Canada, but natural born citizen
Of the United States, while returning from
Michigan to Alburgh, was captured by a
detachment of British Dragons, under
Capt. Jones. Grogan was sleeping at the
house ofhis brother-in -law-the soldiers
surrounded the house, forced it open, and
entered Grogan's bedroom, who defended
himself against his assailants until severe
ly wounded in the legs and thighs by
hayonets. His face was literally flayed,
and his clothes torn of. lie was wrap
ped in buffalo robe, thrown into wag-
on, carried across the lines and sent 10
Montrea! in irons.-When this affair be-
came knows at St. Adams, public meet
ing was held, and committee was APP
pointed to examine into the transaction,
and report at the subsequent meeting to be

The Early Dream; By 1. Z. L.

All! never another dream can be-
Like that early dream of ours,
When Hope, like child, lay down to sleep
Amid the folded flowers.
But Hope has Weakened since, and wept
Itself, like rainbow, away;
And the flowers have faded and fallen around
We have none for g wreath to-day.
Now, Truth has taken the place of Hope,
And our hearts are like winter hours;
Little has after life been worth
That early dream of ours.

Yet still It's snd to think twill be
The samc when we are gone:
Some few, perhaps, MAJ N ~ tor us-
Eat soon the transient gloon,
Like shadows ola summer cloud,
Shall leave the marrow tomb.
For men are like the waves that roll
Along the mighty deep
That lit their crests awhile and frown,
And then are lullcd to sleep;
While other pillows swelling come,
Amid the foam and spray,
And as we view their fiIrrowy track,
Sink down and-where arc they
And ever thus the waves shall roll,
Like those but now gone past
The offspring ofthe depths beneath,
The children of the blast,
And ever thus shall mon arise,
And be like those that be,
And man no more be missed Oh land,
Than wave upon the sea.

Another System of PInnder!

We learn from the Hollidaysburg Register,
that supervisor on the Allegheny Portage
Railway some time since had some locust sills,
or cross ties, brought down from the mountain
on State Cars and by State hands and thrown
off along the road where it passes by his farm,
and that recently these sills have disappeared
from the road, and made their appearance as
locust posts in fence on the farm before allu-
ded TO! This we have been informed is posi-
lively TRUE, by good authority. |. is said also,
THAT THE FENCE WAS BUILT, OR
AT LEAST THE POSTS SET, BY STATE
HANDS!
We are assured also that the Superintendent
of Masonry on the road, has brought stone,
which were QUARRIED BY STATE
HANDS, down from the Mountain, for his
OWN PRIVATE USE, ON STATE CARS
AND FREE OF TOLL!
The people must bear these things yet lit
tie longer: few months will end the Porter
dynasty and its punder system.-Pa. TEL
