CoNeREss.-None OF the important bills
which were passed in the Senate have been
acted on in the House, and some entertain
a belief that the abolitionists of the North
and the ultra slavery men of the South
n most strange union-will combine to de-
feat them. We trust, however, that there
are liberal-minded men enough III Congress
who can look at public measures in the
light patriot and statesman would view
item, and act for the good of our common
country. He who expects to have every
thing his own way in this land of Z" free
thought" can hardly be called good citi-
zen, because from the nature of our insti-
tutions and diversity of interests, there
must always be "A concession from one por-
ton to the other on any question affecting
the north, south, or west. In this light W.
feel confident the people view the bills 81
long before Congress, and although perhaps
not approving their features as whole
they would rejoice in any action that woulo
result in more quiet state Of things.

DIR TTCkET.

The whig ticket nominated on Monday
last, viii commend itself 10 the support of
every whig in Mifliin county, composed
rs 1t is of an array of men of unques-
toned character and ability, against whom
not word Of detraction can be truly Ut
tered.
ANDREW MCFARLAND, the nominee for
Assembly, is well known throughout the
valley as an industrious farmer, well ac-
quainted with political theories and famil-
lar with all that relates to the wants and
interests of Miffiin county. That he
would make an attentive and impartial re-
preventative in the Legislature, d" USAwEB
BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED By GAIN"
no one who knows the man can for mo-
ment doubt. The estimation in which
he is held, and his sterling integrity and
fitness for the office, viii secure him vote
that will tell the intriguers in the late loco
foco convention that there is point when
torbearance ceases to be q virtue"
JOHN BALsBAcH, our candidate for Pro-
thOnotary, is a resident Of Newton Hamil-
ton, where he enjoys the respect and good
will Of all classes. He is well qualified
for the post, and having lately taken to
himself lady fair for companion, has
shown himself much better citizen than
his opponent, who still remains perverse
bachelor, insensible to the charms of
Heavens first best gift to man. Itwould
serve the locofoco candidate right If all
the wives and daughters in Mifllin were to
clcchonecr against him.
For County Surveyor, the convention
selected WILLIAM LYTTLE, of Lewistown,
for several years teacher in the public
schools Of this place-a situation he has
filed in manner satisfactory to the Board
OF Directors, TO parents, and, what is not
often the case, the children. He has
good knowledge Of surveying, both prac-
tIcal and theoretical, and as he would with
out doubt zcalously labor wherever re-
qulrcd, we commend him to the support
Of all who wish to reward merit. We do
not think his opponent, Mr.. Weckes, cares
much about the matter, barring being beat,
and as he would soon get over that, there
will not be much lost should the voters Of
Mliliin decide with us that Mr.. Lvttlc
ought to be the man.
Col. WILLIAM CuMMINs, the nominee
for Commissioner, is a gentleman extern
siyely known, having some years ago ably
represented this county in the Legislature
Ills qualifications are undoubtcd, and be-
ing himself heavy taxpayer, his election
viii ensure 4 faithful member Of the Board
OF Commissioners.
