We observe says the Norrlstown Herald ana
Free Press, that several loco-foco papers IN the
interior of this State are endeavoring to make po-
tica capital out of the present high prices OF pro-
duce of all kinds, which they assure the Farmers
is one of the blessings bestowed by President Polk,
through the Tariff of 1916, upon the people =
Every one Qoco-fo editors included) knows that
the present high prices were occasioned by the
failure of the crops in Great Britain and Ireland,
and in many countries on the continent OF Europe,
reducing vast number Of people TO state OF
starvation, and causing the death of thousands. -
That Polk caused this famine, as the loco-foco
papers assert if their language means any thing,
is rather more than his political opponents are
willing TO charge him with, though they little doubt
his disposition TO do any hing that he might sup
pose would promote his personal or party views.
But if the present high prices of agricultural
products are, as the loco-foco papers assert, the
effect of the Tariff of 1876, that Tariff would seem
10 be very unequal in lis operations. Mechanics
and working men do not find their labor more IN
request nor their prices increased since the pas
SAGE of the new Tariff, while the prices of provi-
sions are such as TO render il difficult for many to
procure even the bare necessaries of life. AS this
seems to be the effect of design on the part of the
administration, we would recommend early re-
vision of its work by the same skilful hands which
have ACCOMPLISHED such wonders.

Accounts from the Capital state that Santa

il is no, known whether Congress had accepted
I il or not. This step was taken by him in con
sequence OF the opposition 10 his views IN reia-
ion to the defence OF The Capital as Wen as
The defamalory articles i'll the public prints OF

The American army was generally expected
to be at The Capital by the 18th of the present
month, and bu, a slight resistance anticipated
Santa Anna had commenced The foriicalon
of Gaudaloupe in person. and ordered The same
measures at Mojicalzlngo, near the suburbs, but
this causing general disapprobalion, his resgna-
ton followed Ii was believed hat it would be
accepted and Herrera nominated. The troops
al The Capital were bu, three thousand in mum
Der.
An exciting fumor prevailed at Vera Cruz, to
the effect that the citizens OF Puebla had risen
upon Gen Worth, and ou, off six or seven hun
dted of his men. The rumor was in every
mans mouth and much credence was given 10
it, though The Plcayune's Vera Cruz conespon-
dent is scepica.
The murder of Col. Sours appears To be con-
frmed. A wagon master and Quarlerinas-
ter's clerk, supposed to have been murdered
between Camargo and Monterey. are now as
cerlalned to be prisoners in the city of Mexico.
Suspicious are entertained al Jalapa that all
attempt will be made TO relake ha, place.
Further robberies have taken place between
Vera Cruz and Jalapa, and the RancheFos be-
tween those points are eslmatedat so
ate letter from Jalapa states that Col,
Lawrence a bearer of dispatches, and one oi
his escort had been killed on ihe road This
report originates probably through mistake ;
Col Sours murder is no doubt alluded to.
There are later dates from Gen, Taylors
army, but very liule of importance. The Mas

Lit. Col. Wrigh, had been elected to the vacan!

A Scene i'm the SchuyIkIIl.

The North American of the 9ih inst. says ::
man by The name of RYNINGER attempted
yesterday afternoon to convey himself, la
magnetic telegraph, across the Schuylklil river.
The wire was stretched, the crowd was duly
gathered, and lined the bank Of the river in hun
dreds-women and children, as usual, occupy
ing the FROM rank One after another, The close
packed omnbuses deposited their living cargoes,
until several thousand people had disembogued
upon the scene of action. The hotels and
drinking shops tfor whose benef', in connection
with that of the omnibuses, il is said the affair
was gotten up,) were crowded, and immense
quantities Of liquor were swilled and guzzled
by the thirsty spectators.
AT length, after Z" wait" which would have
done honor TO a theatrical star of the first mag
nitude, Mr.. RYNINGER appeared, dressed hare
qunwise. He mounted the wire with hesi
taing step, and when abou, one-,hird across
his slippery bridge broke down and he was
precipita,ed into The river. Nothing cooled
however, by the splendid ducking, The wire
was mended and he started ygain. Fhis Time
he made better progress; and the excited Grove
were just about congra,ulaling themselves upor
the possession of a new lion, when the temer
ilous adven,urer lost his balance, and fell sec
ond time into fhe river. striking his shoude
against he boa, that kept along beneath him, II
his descent, and receiving somewhat sewers
injury. So you see lha, The magnetic telegraph
is not yet brought 10 perfection, as i. is in th'
habit of losing small packages entrusted TO it.
After this choice folly, Mr.. RyNINGER depart
/ ed in very unsatisfactory frame OF mind, whil
the foolish crowd wen, about its business witt
