FRANCIS r. SKUNK, he said, was opposed TO such
monopolies, and the FRIEND OF THE PEOPLE y!
The speaker said that he had been charged by the
Wings with endeavoring to carry water both
shoulders; he wished this matter to be settled
and dIscaimed all connection with the Wing party
henceforth and FOREVERn He said he had deemed
1t necessary say this much in order to place HIM
self in his proper position before the community. He
looked upon FRANCIS r. SKUNK as man of
unspotted integrity, and considered him the most
efficient and faithful Governor Pennsylvania ever had
and concluded By pledging himself to the cordial and
hearty support Of SKUNK and LONGSTRETH
and the entire ticket selected by the Democracy Of

This is but case in hundreds which come to our
knowledge. So goes federal whiggeryl lis toryism

P. G. STUYvEsANT's WnL.-We copy the follow
ing remarks from eastern paper, in consideration
of their justice. 1t requires addition TO satisfy
rejecting minds of its correctness generally.
The late Peter e. Stuyvesant willed $1,000 to the
American Bible Society. $1,000 to the American Tract
Society. $1,000 to the Institution for the Blind, and
$1,000 to the Protestant Half Orphan Society. The
estate is estimated at fourteen millions of dollars
Twelve thousand dollars per annum have been secured
to his wife. The bulk Of the estate is distributed
among neices and hephews, he left children of
his own.
How this benevolent millionaire came to think of
it to leave just tenth of per cent. Of all his
estate TO these benevolent institutions, does not APP
pear. Probably he attached to them value compared
with other things corresponding this per centage.
If a worth Sl400 should in his will leave 90
cents to the Bible Society," 10 cents to the Tract Socl-
ETY., 80 cents to the Institution for the Blind, and 90
cents to Orphan Society, it would be considered
rather queer but it would be precisely proporoned to
what has been done by Mr. Stuyvesant.
Millionares appear to be blessed either with small
souls small knowledge of arithmetic beyond addi-
ton. If a man worth but $1,000 in the world gives
so to public object, it is not thought worth
making very great fuss ahout-but if, being worth
S200O,000, he gives $4,000, the universal newspa-
per press is expected go into ecstacies-and for
the rarity Of the thing 1t very well may

o. WONDERFUL FEAT.-A brick building at the
corner of fremont and Bromfed streets, Boston, was
moved ii II feet Saturday, including the cellar
walls. upon temporary railway, by means of jack
The building estimated to be 200 tons in
weight but scarcely jar was felt in the process of
moving-not much the rolling of barrel of flour

for which it used, not removed but the or
binary business continued III the while without inter-
tuption This is the first feat of the kind
plished, and as may be readily imagined was work
of much difficulty.
The process as described in the Wing, was TO first
dig the new cellar and lay foundation wall to cor
respond with the old one. Upon this wall two iron
bars were affixed several inches apart which the
building was to on small iron rollers. Under
meath the old wall similar preparation was made.
The difficulty of moving made greater by the I'M
evenness of the stones composing the wall, many of
which were taken out, and their places substituted
with others of smooth surface. Six were
used in the operation, which done under the d-
rection Of Mr.. James Brown of Providence.
