A Shrewd Turk

We learn by correspondent of the
Tribune from London, August oGth,
That the Austrians had not as vet oc-
cupied Servia. 1t was expected every
day, but it has not yet happened. and
Prince Alexander is prepared for his de-
fence. The Austrians have really an
noInced that in case Of disturbances
they would enter Servia, though Baron
Bruck has now disayowed the declara.
ton in rather curious way, saying
that " since the Emperor has found that
such an occupation would be disasreeable
to the Sultan, he thinks no more of it. ~
The Pasha of Belgrade, TO whom the
first declaration was made, very sensibly
asked the Austrian Consul what dis.
turbances the Austrian Government
meant! The Consul replied, Those
which Prince MiloSh and his family
may create land where are Prince
MiloSh and his family!" asked the Pasha
again. The Consul replied, They are
i'll the next neighborhood, close to the
frontiers of Servia, in the Austrian do
minlons." " Then" said the Pasha, ~ it
Will be easier for the Austrian Enpe-
ror to have dangerous refugees, lowering
on the frontiers of Servia, removed
into the interior Of Austria, as the
Sultan did at the request of Austria and
England with kossuth and his compan-
ions, who were not at the frontier, than
to allow them undisturbedly to plot and
to threaten us with friendly invasions.-
As for myself, will defend the fortress
against any body who attacks it, whether
he processes to be friend or foe
We think the Pasha rather headed the
Consul in that palaver.-Col. Stotcsmnn.

MACHINE FOR SETTING TYPE.-The New
York Tribune has examined a new ma
chine, invented by Mr.. William Mitchell,
of that city, for the purpose of setting
type. 1t has keys like piano, with a
number of endless tapes, kept in motion
by machinery. to carry the types to the
spot where they are set up. The types
are laid with the nicked side up, in little
brass cases or galleys, some fifteen or
eightcenincheslong, and just wide enough
to admit type cros:wise. OF these cases
there are as many as there are small let
ters and punctuation marks, and they are
fixed at al inclination of about Is deg.
over the types, so that when key is
touched type drops fat upon its tape,
and is instantly conveyed to ano, her lar
ger tape, to which all the types are car
ried, and which conveys them all to lit
tie metallic throat, down which they drop
upon table all set up, but requiring to
be divided into lines, or justified, by
hands. Capitals and Italics have to be
laid on the tapes by hand, there being in
the machine no keys or galleys for them.
Two persons are required to attend the
machine-one to work the keys, and one
to Justify and remove the matter composed.
1t is very ingenious invention. All its
parts are simple, and it would not easily
get out of order. Itoccupes rather more
space, perhaps, than a piano. Exactly
how much work it is capable of perform
ing, the Tribune has no means of Judging,
as the ARRANGEMENTS are not vet co,n
plete enough to subject it to 4 regular test.

ESpA meeting of the citizens of Ioretto and
Summitville was held in Loretto, on Saturday
last, at the house of DIR. Pfof, in reference to
the Loretto Turnpike or Plank Road Company
when about four thousand dollars of stock was
subscribed, in addition to the previous subscrip-
ton of three thousand dollars. It viii be noti-
ced by advertisement in this paperzthatlan cleo
ton for officers will take place at Loretto, : on
Saturday, June 25th. This road will be ofplank
and is intended to connect Loretto with the Gen.
trail Railroad at or near when it crosses the pre-
sent Turnpike. The road will be constructed as
soon possible, and cannot but be of immense
advantage to the section of country through
which it will pass. In short time o letting
win be held and every effort win be used to fur
ther the completion of so necessary a highway.
p0r Miss Leslie in her behaviour Book, :"
gives us chapter on chairs, and she expresses
great dislike to the rocking chair. She says
'sthat the dizzy and ungra cefu practice of rock
in a rocking chair, is now discontinued by all
genteel people, except when entirely, alone. A
lady should never be seen to rock in o chair,
and the rocking of gentleman looks silly
Rocking is only fit for a nurse putting baby to
sleep. When children get into a large rocking
chair, they usually rock it over backward, and
fall out. These chairs are now seldom seen in q
parlour. Handsome, stuffed easy chairs, that
are moved on casters, are substituted, and of
these half-a-do of various forms are not con-
sidered too many"

the anniversary of the h-day of the nation,

of those who were instrumental in establishing
a country W hose example is republicanizing the
world. In the Golden time," a score of

age, when business and money occupy mans

The Disputed Valley Question---War Excitemen,
in California.

Quite an excitement was produced in Califor-
Fla by the Intelligence of Gen. Lanes seizure of
the Valley of Mesila, and the difficulty between
the American and Mexican authorities. In the
State Legislature, on the morning of the Cd, the
following preamble and resolution were offered
and debated -
Whereas, Common rumor has informed us
that the Government of Mexico has not hesita-
ted to violate the solemn Treaty entered into
with the United States at Guadalupe Hidalgo, on
the I'd day of February, 1S48-and whereas,
through the same channel we have learned that
the Military Governor or New Mexico {Gen-
Lane, has seized upon certain lands in dispute
between the two high contracting parties, and
from hence we anticipate speedy war between
those powers Therefore,
Resolved, That committee of three be ap-
pointed to draft joint resolution, bill, au-
thorizing certain persons to organize ten compa-
nleS of mounted men, without expense to the
State, and granting them the right to repair to
spot within and near the line of the State
where it touches the river Gila-there to remain
so long as they choose, at their own cost,
til a requisition shall have been made upon this
State for troops, in the event of q war with Mex
leo.
The member who moved the resolution said
that it was now well known that Gen Santa Anna
was again President of Mexico, and would prob
ably turn his attention Immediately to the nor
thern provinces of that country aud that the
safety of our frontier required the presence of
large force there, as war was very likely to COM
mence between that nation and our own SO sud-
denly that troops could not be obtained from the
East in season. Quite an animated debate grew
out of this motion, in which many of the ablest
members took part. 1t was proposed at first to
refer it to the Committee on Federal Relations,
and then to the Committee of Ways and Means,
but the final result was a resolution to lay on
the table, which prevailed The debate, how
ever, goes to show that the s'hearts of the peo-
pie are prepared for war; whenever it may come.

ken of, as Outrageous" nobody doubling that
