We have no late intelligence from
Harrisburg. On the 9TH inst, the Reve-
nue. bill finally passed the House, AZ 10
40, the Wing members generally or all
voting against it. A number Of private
Bills also passed the Honse; but neither
these nor the Revenue Bill are likely to
have been disposed of in the Senate as
yet.
In the Senate the Appropriation Bill
had been under consideration, but no def
mite action taken upon it.
The Bill for the right OF way to the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
had been up in the House on Monday
and several speeches made on If, and was
then postponed until Wednesday.

month, and we doubt not drivers aud hor-

As many as one hundred and seventy
passengers,-requiring eighteen stages
have been sent out from this place, on

THE OREGON QUESTION.


The Oregon question IS still under dis
cassion in the Senate, and no one can tell
how il will 'erininaie. il is somewhat
remarkable that, with majority OF pc
litical fieuds in both Houses of Con-
gress, Mr.. Polk should be unable to bring
ibis question TO a close IN one way or an
other. Congress has now been IN ses-
sion more than four months, and the views
and intentions Of the Administration on
this subject appear to be less understood
at this time than they were before the
meeting of that body. IL the .'Democ-
racy" wish to 60 10 war. why not make
the necessary preparations, and proclaim
iheiE intentions! Or, if they mean 10
adjust he difficulty IN an aElieable man
ner. why noi say so and adopt measures
accordingly! They have all the power
Of government in iheir ewn hands. and
why not come 10 some determination in
regard to the manner of using il, The
minority in Congress can throw no OBJ
stacles in their wav, were ihev even dis
posed to do so. Why. then, dis hating
between two opinions on the part Of the
MAJORITY Why all this waste of lime
and money, when ii is not pretended that
any new light can be thrown upon the
subject, or that the difficulty can be reno
red by procrasdnation! If Dir. Polk and
his friends are determined on fight, let
them say so. Ii they are for peace, let
them say so. Or, if they find that. by
their buDgiing management Of this ques-
ion. they have go. themselves into ''fix."
let them saw so again. and perhaps the
Wings may exercise lisiie compassion
and help them out Of it.

The sub-Treasury.

This ofj-rejected measure is likely 10
be fastened again upon the country. A
Bill for its re-establishmeni passed the
IIoase o. Representatives The other day,
AMI viii in all probability pass the
Senate also and receive the approval
Of Mr.. Polk. The party in power
appear to have but lirle regard for
public opinion. Their FIRST object evi-
IDENTIFY is to provide for themselves, and
if they can do anything for the people
afterwards, why, then they may possi-
bly do it, provided it does not interfere
with their own interest. The Sub-T'rea-
sury had been re jecied again and again by
the Peoples Representatives, and was f.
nslly in manner forced upon the coun-
iry-and every body knows with what
indignation il was received, and with what
uRanimity it was condemned BY the Peo-
pie from one end OF the Union;o the 9TH
er. To lhe advocacy OF it, more than to
anv thing else, Mr., Van Buren owed his
defeat in 1910. Yet in the face Of all
these facts the presen. Congress and the
present Administration seem determined

From SanfaFe.

A company of Mexican and American
traders have arrived at ST. Louis from
Santa Fe. They were robbed of their
horses and mules on the plains by the
Pawnee Indians. The Eutaw Indians
had killed FIVE Mexicans and wounded
one on the Santa Fe road. Another COM
pany were some DAYS travel behind this
company, having also met some obstruc-
ton from Indians. All was quiet al San
ia Fe. They had just heard of the revo-
luton in Mexico, and the troops at Santa
Fe were ordered below immediately
The gold mines of New Mexico had been
worked with unusual success during ths
year, increasing the demand for goods.
II is estimated that million OF dollars
win probably be invested in that trade
this year. This company hronght with
Them $50 pounds OF gold. in dust. and
expect 70 return with heavy stocks OF
goods this spring.-Bicanell

Tie Ensuing Election.

The ensuing general election will be
an important one to the people Of this
county and Congressional district In
addition 10 the election of Member of the
Legislature, Commissioner and Auditor
which are elected every year, we shall
this wear elect a Sheriff and Member OF
Congress, and vote also for Canal Com

for the purpose of impressing upon the
Wings of this county the importance of
acting prudenlly in regard to the October
election. as our opponents viii no doubt

ONE OF THE EFFECTS OF TIE
TARIFF.

The Charleston Free Press relates an
interesting incident Of j poor family in
the neighborhood of Harper's Ferry, who
were living few months ago in the most
squalid poverty, without work and IN the
greatest suffering. Recently they were
removed By the Hon. John Wcthered to
Baltimore county. Md, and given em-
ployment in q factory. There are some
twelve or fourteen children in the family,
about half of whom, with the father, are
now engaged as operatives; and their IN
come is near one thousand dollars per an
nun. A happy illustration. truly, of the
wisdom and bsnefcience OF The protective
policy.

The Henry Car.

The Steamer Orus which came up
Friday evening about 6 O'Clock, brought
up between one and Two hundred OF OF The

Ras,bcrT.

On last Sahba,h morning at the distance
of hall mile moth of this town,In an old
uninhabiied cabin were found Carpet
bag and Valice with various other things,
that evince that robbery has been COM
mitted recently, al or near our town. The
Carpet bag, cantained towel, marked N.
L. Williams. There were also various
other articles in it, such as The American
Arithmetic, Smiths GramHer. Browns 5
Grammar. written school Composition,
a pair of fine morocco shoes, tooth brush
&c. with various articles of clothing
The books are marked with the same
name-which leads Us to believe that the
articles have been stolen from the Stage,
and that the owner of the above mention
ed articles, was going either TO or from
same seminary or school.
There was also found al the same time
and place, pair fine cloth pantaloons, d
/ cloth coat, marked Alex. Thomas.-and
2 shirts and OF shirtees, marked John
B. Mcdowell. Some old clothes were
also found, not marked, except with age
and DIRT.
On Monday morning last 2 trunks
were found near the turnpike, between
Lgonier and Laughlinstown, which were
empty, having doubtIessly been taken
from the stage and pIundered. One OF
the trunks is almost new, but has no visi-
bic mark. The other has the following
writing on label: viz. John B. Mellow
ell, Lewistown, Fulton county. H. There
is no doubt, the contents of the trunks
were conveyed from them 10 the old
house.
