70 JUDGE OF THE SUPREME CoURT.-It
is not known who will be appointed to ill
the vacancy occasoned by the death Of
Judge Burnside on the Bench of the Su-
preme Court. Among others we believe
the name of Joshua w. Comfy, ESQ.,, oil
Danville, has been presented before the
Governor. Mr.. Comfy is lawyer oi
fine legal requirements, and possesses the
respect and confidence of all who know
him. Governor Johnson could not well
make better selection.
Since the above was in type we have
learned that the Governor has appointed
Hon. George Chambers of Franklin county

~ APPROPRIATION FOR THE RIVER
BANK.-Mr. John B. Packer our member
has succeeded in passing through the House,
an appropriation of $4,000 to repair the
Schute and abutments of the Shamokir
Dam, and also $4,000 to rip rap and Sc.
cure the Bank Of the river at Sunbury.-
We trust the Senate Will concur with tht
House in granting the appropriation. Mr.
Packer at all events deserves much credit
in getting the matter through the House.

u THE SCHOOL LAw.-We were in
formed by our member Mr.. Packer, few
days since, when at Harrisburg, that he had
succeeded in passing through the Legisla.
ture an act allowing the non-accepting DIS
tricis in this county to decide by vote ol
the people, whether or not the school sys-
TEN should be adopted by them. This Seems
to be the right principle.

A SINGULAR MCAsE.n

The last Miltonian is down upon the
one I-deaed Editor Of the lntelligencer in
the upper end of the County. The Mil
tonian should ask John what has become Of
the free soil principles with which his
whole soul was im5ued few months pre-
vious to his advent into Mc'Ewensville.-
John is certainly most valorous genius.
In bis last paper, he attacked among others,
Col. v. Best of the Danville Intelligencer,
and strange TO say lost his 81" in the con-
test, bringing the redoubtable "we" to bear
on our frightened neighbor with fearful
vengeance. But John is remarkable
man. When he was immersed up TO his l.
brows in free soiism, a few months before
his Herald OF Freedom burst forth upon the
astonished world, from Bloomsbury, he
magnanimously offered to subscribe for ou'
paper, on condition that we would change
our principles. We held the matter undel
advisement, but concluded after due delib.
Grafton to decline the offer. We regre
that our young friend, who officiated for us
during our absence at Philadelphia, should
have threatened John with such an Indignity
as ga spanking" He protests, however
that the matter of "free soil, had entirely
escaped his memory at the time, or h
should never have ventured 10 propos'
such an infiction.

whose family is one of the utmost respecta-

sister, when her mother iaiesfeUed for lis
protection, upon which, horrible TO relate.
the Young girl struck her with poker. The

GERMANS IN THE WEsT.-Of the two
hundred thousand souls in Wisconsin, more
than one hundred thousand are said to be
Germans. This race Of men are settling the
country on the scource of the Mississippi ve'
ry rapidly, and in that region, if in any part
of the Union, the German character and
customs seem likely to impress themselves
on the population.
