Sad Casualty!

This morning, about ! o'e..uck the house Of
Peter Brell, of Pocono township, in this Coun-
ty, was burned, with four of lis inma,es-a
married woman, aged 23--daughter of Mr..
Brell, young man aged 20, and two children,
one aged 10 years, and the other 8 months.
The wife Of Mr. b. was very badly burned, so
that her life is in imminent danger. There
were four sleeping on the second floor, all of
whom perished; and four sep, below, who es-
scaped without any Of their clothing except
what they had upon them. The fire, it is sup
posed, originated from the s'ove pipe. The
survivors are left, ii is said, in very destitute
condition.

End of the Volume.

The present number of our paper concludes the
third volume of the letfersonian Republican. 1t
also brings to close the second year OF our con-
nexion with it as Editor and Publisher. Itis Gus
lomary, in almost every business, the end of the
year, to overhaul the books settle up accounts,
pay off old scores and begin the new year on a
rev scale. OF all businesses, that Of printing
more particularly requires that the old rule should
be adhered TO. There is no trade or occupation
which requires more outlay upon the capital in
vested, whilst there is none in which there is one
third so much credit given or required Where
another business man has one account outstanding,
the publisher OF a newspaper has at least three or
four. What is more, every thing he buys, types,
presses, paper, ink, &c. &c. must be paid for in
cash, OF what is equivalent, and no trust. Instead
OF squaring up with us at the end of the year,
however, upon looking over our books, we see that
two years have gone by and that great many OF
our subscribers have not yet paid cent on their
accounts. Most of the others owe US for eighteen
months, or a year--very few having paid up the
full amount Of their subscriptions. To them, in
dividuay, the amounts are small, but TO collec-
lively, they are large. In consequence of the ir-
regularity of payment by our subscribers, we have
often been put TO great Inconvenience during the
last eighteen months. We hope our subscribers
will see the propriety of complying with this ap-
peal, and at once put end to our cause Of COM
plant. In fact it is absolutely necessary that all
our claims should be settled. We are making ar.
rangements which positively demand it. With
cur next number VIC intend to open a new set OF
books--and once say ,ce must hare our old
ones settled up.

Hollow Shot.

From recent experiments made at Albany,
N. Y, in presence of Gen. Wool and MaJor
Baker, of the U. S. Army, the hollow shot and
shells invented by Scott and Bardick, OF that
civ, were found 10 be terrible missiles, and
fully answered the expectations of The inveners
and The gentlemen present The shells are
loaded with composition designed 10 explode
them at the instant Of striking any object al
which they are simed, and the effect Of SIN
gle shot upon large ship would be to sink her
almost ins,anianeously, and exploding IN or
near body of troops, il would prove awiulIy

To the Patrons of the JeffersOnian
Republican,.

Dear Patrons, two years have now glided by
since first made my bow TO you as Editor. Du-
ring that period with but one or two exceptions
we have held weekly converse together. We
have discussed the affairs of State, specuated
upon the prospects of the country, read the news
of the day, and looked anxiously forward to the
future. Nothing has occurred during all this time
IN tho good feolings which have uniformly
existed between US. 1t is true that on more occa-
sion than one, Pecuniary pressures have been felt
by me in consequence of some of you forgetting
that the Printer ,oOrthy of his hire, but have
always attributed your neglect in that respect to
any thing but bad hearts. My duty as Editor has
consequently been pleasant task-a task which
was performed singly, and the recollection of which
can never be forgot
Hereafter that duty will no longer devove upon
me alone. / have made arrangements to associate
with me in business, Ma. Thomas L. KoLLocK,
and his connexion with this paper will begin with
t!Ie next number. Mr. K. is son of the Rev. S.
Is. ko!lock, of Burlington, n j. and is a young
man OF good education and fine talents He SER
we'd his apprenticeship at the office of the North
amPion Whig, under the superintendent Of Mr.
Josiah P Hetrich, the 4ble and gentlemanly Edi-
tor OF that paper, and is thorough printer He
IS Wing in principle.
BY this new arrangement, the political complex
ion OF the paper will undergo no change. 1t will,
as heretofore, advocate firmly and fearlessly, but
AT the same time in mild and conciliatory manner,
The cause of correct principles. The literary, ag-
licutural, and miscellaneous departments of the
paper, will be well attended, and every effort made
so render the Jeffersonian Republican an interest
5ag and instructive family visitor BY strict atten
non to business. and with our united energies de-
voted to ii1e Improvement of its columns, trust
we shall be able net only to retain the former pat
ronage Of the paper but also greatly to increase it,

Land Sales.

The Chicago (llI.) Express, OF the 10Th uli.
says, Iha, land to the amount in value of $780,
2l5 36, was sold al the recent land sale N that
city. The tracts were situated in the counties
of Kane, De Kalh, Kendall, Du Page and
Cook, and they compise some Of the finest land
in the Union. OF course much had been pre-.
viously entered by pre-emption. About Co.,
600 acres were offered at the Land Sale. but
10000 only sold. This result is TO be altribu-
ted mainly TO the extreme scarcity of money.
Fine, well improved farms remain unpurchased'
but no one will have the hardlhood, we suspect,
TO interfere with the rights OF claimants
