A New Trick of ViIlainy,

There appears to be no limit to the
ingenuity of rogues, who exert talents in
obtaining unlawful possession of their
neighbors' property, which if properly
directed in some honest calling, would
insure them, in almost all eases, more
pecuniary proft-besides the advantages
of good conscience. A case of adroit-
ness has been reported to us, as it hap
pened in this city few days since, which
we mention, that others may be on their
guard against any other simular design.
A gentleman, whose watch had been re-
paired at a watchmaker's, returned it
on the evening of the day on which he
received it, with equest that it might
be regulated. The matchmaker took it.
enquiring the gentleman's name, which
he wrote on piece of paper, and attach
ed it to the watch, remarking that it was
not necessary to enter it on the book, as
the repairig had been paid for. The
owner promised to call for it the next day,
should he be in town. On the evening
following, a man came in the store and
asked for his watch, giving the name of
the person who had left one, as before sta
ted, saying that it was not on the book,
having been repaired before and only left
to regulate The matchmaker unsusnici-
ously handed it to him, and on being as
ked if anything was to pay, replied.
nothing, sir" and the stranger thanked
him and left the store with the watch
A few days after, the real owner calleds
for it, and of course it was gone, and
little reflection enabled the matchmaker
to recollect, that at the time the watch
was left, there were two strange men in
the store, who must have heard the CON
versation about it, and had acted on the
information thus received. The watch
was gold lever, worth about 500, and
there is very little chance for its recov-
cry. VI course, the matchmaker suffers
the loss.-Neacark DAILY Aofreuiar.

TIE acw PiYimg Strip.

The Tribune publishes full account
of the new aerial ship Omitted States"
now on the stocks at Hoboken, and near
ly ready for launching in the air We
make the following extract:
"The car is 64 feet IN length, very
sharp at either end, width 6 feet, height
feet a inches, the whole composed OF a
strong, light wooden frame covered with
canvas, with doors and glass windows.
The boilers are ofcopper, on the tubular
plan, and occupy space equal to four
cubic feet; the engines are very perfect,
being composed of gun metal and cast
steel; they are Of 12-horse power and arc
to work 20-inch stroke 66 times per
minute, which will give 400 revolutions
of the floats, which are placed in a sub
stancial framework on the top of the car.
There is sufficient room for 25 passan-
gers, with fuel for hours. The foat is
goo feet in length, of a cigar like shape,
"a feet in diamater in the centre, and
has gas capacity equal to $4,000 cubic
feet, which gives lifting power equal to
$500 pounds. The entire weight of the
car, Fl oat and fxturesis but about 1000
pounds, leaving $500 pounds surplus
1t is designed to run about 20OVfeet
above the surface of the earth, at a rate
of speed varying from 25 to 90 miles
per hour. Their engines are a curiosity,
their weight being l81 pounds, and 50
perfect are they that by the force of his
lungs, Mr.. Robjohn caused both pistons
to work full revolution, carrying a dri
wing wheel of five feet diameter. The
rudder is worthy of minute examination,
and by it it is designed to run up or
down or in any required direction. The
car is suspended by cords to the float,
and when the whole is inflated and sus-
pended in mid-air under the estimated
velocity, it will be rare sight. There
ality of such a scheme can hardly be
comprehended until one examines the
admirable machinery, and acutually sits
down in the car, when its feasibility
seems to be probable. The ship thus
far has cost the inventor about $500,
and he now requires only few hundred
more to perfect and Set afort this air
ship. 1t is designed to drive this vessel
by steam, and to abviate the necessity
of fuel Mr.. Robjohn says he has discove-
ed a plan for decomposing water, igni-
ting the gases, which again become water,
which is converted into steam by the COM
bustion, and this steam is again condens-
ed and returned for decomposition, thus
securing entire immunity from waste,
and uniform weight during the longest
voyages. The present arrangement of
the engineers, are, however, on the usual
reciprocity plan driven by steam genera
ted from coke and spirits of wine"

The Augs.,i Eiecsions.

Kentucky. accounts from this State
are contradictory, but it seems now. quite
probable that Powell (the Locofoco candidate
for Governor) has been elected by small
majority. The returns and estimates for men,
bers of Congress, give five Locos, four Wings,
and one Independent Last year it was six
Wings to four Locos. The Legislature (e-
lected for two years. is believed to be Whig
in both branches
Lndidna.-The Congressional delegation
! now stands eight Locos to two Whigs-be-
fore it was nine Locos to one Wing. Legis-
iature strongly Loco.
1'enneSSee.-The returns are quite meagre,
but indicate considerable Whig gain, and the
election of Judge Campbell (Whig) for Gov
erner-which we regard as very doubtful.
North CarOIiRa.-Sufficient returns have
not been received to give the precise result,
but the various parts of the State heard from
indicate that the Union ticket generally has
been successful. In the 9Th District Edw.
Stanley, Wing, is believed to be defeated
AIdbama.-Party lines are pretty much
disregarded The Unionists (who comprise
the Wings and a portion of the Locofocos)
seem 10 be carrying everything before them

Are the Wings EgeadY3

In late number of the " Pennsylvania
Telegraph we find the above question pro.
pounded-accompanied with the following
reflections on the momentous interest that is
involved in our action:
The day Of election approaches. In about
two months we shall be called upon to deposit
our vote for Governor. Judges of the Supreme
Court, &c. Are the Wings making ready to
discharge this duty, with the requisite zeal
and unanimnyl Are they aware that victo-
ry or defeat depends upon their efortsl A
fufi vote is always Wing victory, while a
failure to poll the entire Wing vote is gener-
ally, if not always, attended with defeat.
The Wings, as party, are generally hard
to stir out, mostly from the cause that. being
so often defeated by their own Incidence. thev
think il Of little use to try. But letthem look
at facts and dispel this delusion. Whenever
the Wings have made an effort, and come
oat in their strength in this State, they have
achieved victory, and shown that they are
a majority of the voters Of this State. To
the lukewarm and indolent we therefore saw
STIR yourselves, and secure the prize of victo-
rg as YOU did in l94s, by bold and trium-
phant effort :.

Our Candidates.

Oar ticket for Judges fthe Supreme Court,
says the Lancaster Union, is a noble one
In point Of legal learning, professional repu-
tation, and high character, it cannot he ex-
|celled. Ii is mighty ticket, and " can't be
beat" VIM. NJ. Meredith has stood in the
front rank of his profession for many years,
IS as able lawyer as there is in the State,
and, as General Tayior's Secretary of the
Treasury, acquired national reputation as a
Statesman. Richard Coulter, and Geo Cham
bers are now Judges of the Supreme Court,
were eminent at the bar, and as Judges en-
JOY the entire respect and confidence Of the
legal profession and of the people. Judge
Coulter is favorite in the West, and viii add
TO the entire Wing vote, thousands of 'Dem-
ocrat3c" votes besides. Judge Chambers is
very popular man at home. Joshua W. Com
ly, of Montour, is one of the ablest lawyers
IN the State, and man of the highest char
acter in every respect. At home (Danville)
and in the whole northern portion of the
State, his popularity is unbounded; and he Will
carry everything before him. The same may
be sad of Judge Jessup our other candidate,
and who was appointed by Gov Johnston,
President Judge of tic Susquehanna District.
He resides In Montrose, in said county. He
is an able jurist and gentleman of the high
est character and standing. He will receive
u tremendous vote in the northern counties.

Phenomena i'm Lake Michigan

Several times this season, the people
of Chicago have been startled by the
sudden rising of the waters of Lake Mich
igan to the hight Of several feet, without
any apparent cause. On the 26th of Ju-
ly, according to the Chicago Journal,
the lake played its antics all day, the wa
ter rising from two to four feet, every
half hour or so, and as suddenly receding.
At dusk, while the Lake was as smooth
as mirror, without wind or any apparent
cause, the water rose to the hight of four
feettwice within an hour. What has caused
this great commotion with old Michigan,
is mystery. 1t is certainly very un-
accountable.

The Canal Comm iSSiOners Re-
GMire watching.

The Spread Eagle, Delaware county, at
which the Locofoco meeting was held on the
third inst, is situated few hundred yards
from the Philadelphia and Columbia Rail-
road. Various means were used to secure q
large attendance. The West Chester Regis
ter mentions that ''thc Canal Commissioners
did their part and that the fare from Phlla-
dephia city and back (thirty-four miles) was
reduced from one dollar TO TWENTY
FIVE CENTS" We would like to under
stand this. What law authorizes the Canal
Commissioners to reduce the tolls on the pub
lie works seueaty.fue per cent, for the ac-
commodation of their political friends? The
change was doubtless made for a political
purpose, and beyond question decreased the
receipts of the State. BY what authority was
this done, or was it done as some other of the
Canal Commissioners acts, without law and
against law!
And after this question is sanswered, we ask
attention to this fact that as far as we can
learn the Canal Commissioners have not had
one meeting for the transaction of business for
the last two months Two of the Board are
out in the State electioneering, and the third
is spending his time leisurely at Cape May.
Now who ordered the fare to be lowered in
the above easel Did the Canal Commission
ers order it. If so, where and when did they
meet! If they did not, was this reduction an
act of usurpation by the Clerk of the Board
or some subordinate! The Clerk draws large
sums of money from the Treasury upon his
own estimates and without consultation with
the Commissioners themselves, and thus a
single man-the mere creature of the men
with whom the people confded the trust OF
managing the public works-exercises pow
er which he has no right to exercise-that
of almost absolute control of the entire fund
appropriated by the Legislature to canal pur-
poses! This is an important matter. 1t is
one link in the great chain of evidence we
have produced to show that REFORM IS
NECESSARY, and that the first step towards
it is to keep from Office and power the men
and party who thus grossly and scandalously
disregard their duties.

VI At raising in Huntingdon County a
few days since, there were thirty-nine men
present, when it was proposed by some one OF
the party, that vote should be taken to see
how the question ofGovernor stood with those
present. The vote was taken and TWEEN
TY-SEVEN voted for WM F. JOHNSTON.
TWO for VIM. BIGLER, and ten would not
vote. On being asked the reason why they
refused to vote, they stated that they were
Democrats and could not vote for JoHNsToN
and that they would not vote for BIGLER, be-
cause he had voted in 1916, denying the use
of our jails to the Shareholders, which law
was signed by the patriot SKUNK, and now he
was endeavoring to cast odium upou the men,
ory of that great and good man, by denouncing
that law; that they despised hypocrite, and
that they would vote for no man who would
be guilty of such trucking.

Tobacco and Tishf-Eacing

Mrs. Swisshelm, noticing DR. Shew's
work on Tobacco, says: at would be
well enough for folks to read this little
volume; but of course the lovers of the
weed will not pay any attention to it
We are not sure, after al that Tobacco is
not a blessing in the same sense as tight
lacing is. This kills the silly, ignorant
women, and that the lazy, loafng men;
and tits scarcely worth while wasting ink
and paper on either class, trying to per-
suade them to live longer in the world
from which they can be so well spared"
