Glorious News!
PHILADELPHIA REDEEMED!

just as our paper was going to press, we
receiveda dispatch that the election for muni-
cpal officers in Philadelphia, held yesterday
had resulted in the total rout of the Know
Nothings, and the election of the whole Dem
ocratic ticket by a majority of about FIVE
thousand
This is glory enough for.one day. After
years of misgovernment. misrule, indebted
ness, and waste of their finances, under which
Philadelphians have suffered, they have at
last thrown off the yoke. and freed themselves
from the degrading incubus of Know-Noth-
ingism With Democratic Mayor and 9TH
er Municipal officers, the character of Phila-
delphia win not be disgraced as heretofore,
nor her own illustrious sons or those of the
State, insulted by the exhibition of petty NAL
ice and spite on the part of her authorities.
This is the first gun from Pennsylvania in
this campaign. and may be given as an evl-
dence of what may be expected from the
odd Keystone" in the event of the nomina-
ton of James Buchanan, at Cincinnati. His
majority would be fifty thousand.

HUSBAND AND WIFE The Legislature of

HUSBAND AND WIFE The Legislature of
Georgia has passed an act to define the liabil-
tiles of the husband for the debts of the wife,
and to define the liabilities of property received
through the wife for the debts of the husband
existing at the time of the marriage. 1t pro-
vides that hereafter, when persons inter-
marry, the husband shall not be liable for the
debts of the wife further than the property
received through the wife will satisfy, and
that the property received by the husband
through the wife shall in no case be liable for
the debts, defaults. or contracts of the husband
existing at the time of the marriage Sew
eral other States have looked into and secured
woman's rights in this important particular.

Sick of KnoW Nothingism.

The Louisville Courier, edited by Walter
Haldeman, Esq, formerly Wing, but more
recently Know Nothing, has repudiated
that party. Hear him:
"The next election will SEAL THE
DOOM OF KNOW W-NOTHINGISM IN KEN
TUCKY. Thousands of Wings who voted
the Know Nothing ticket last August. are
now utterly Disguised with the party, and will
work with will at the next election to secure
its defeat. Within the last FIVE months such
changes have been going on as to leave not
the slightest doubt as to what will be the po-
sition of our noble State in the next contest" :"

LOST CUILDREN.-The two little children of
Mr.. Cox of Bedford county whom we noticed
last week as having been lost some place upon
the mountain, we regret to learn have not
yet been found. After the news reached this
place, meeting of our citizens was held in the
Court house. and arrangements made by
which number of them subsequently, left
town, and aided in the search. Most of them
have since returned home, but without any
tidings as yet of the lost children. A great
number of citizens from Bedford and Blair
counties we understand, are still engaged in
searching for them.

The West Chester Republican and Demo-
crat, has very strong and we'll written edi-
torial advocating the nomination of Mr. Bu-
chanan for the Presidency. Amongst other
things equally truthful and pointed, the edi-
tor says:
The State of Pennsylvania never lacks in
receiving her modicum of fattery. She is
reckoned at every political crisis most ex-
celleut pack-horse, and we are very pleasant
ly told of our patriotism and devotion to prin-
ciple, but when we come to ask for substan-
tial, return of our political virtures in the
way of nomination of one of our own sons
our request is very generally set aside, and
we are cody informed that the time has not
yet arrived Now we profess to have some
little State pride; but we ask the nomination
at this time, not simply because Mr.. Buchan-
an is "to the manor born," but because he is
the most experienced statesman, and the most
arotlaUe candidate before the people for the
next Presidency. At this particular period
he is fortunate enough to have aUaittbtttty far
above his fellows, and that is great deal in
these days. The disjointed and fragmentary
opposition have adopted line of policy which
is now perfectly apparent. The nomination
of Mr.. Fillmore simply amounts to nothing.
Most likely his name will be withdrawn when
he returns from Europe. No nominations
will be made by the Know Nothings and sham
Republicans until after our candidate is an
nounced. If that candidate proves to be Mr.
Buchanan, they will find it utterly impossible
to unite their forces against him, because it i.
well known that large body of men pre-
viously acting with the old Wing party would
be satisfied to vote for him entirely on hi
conservative antecedents. If, however, W.
take up weak man, unpopular with his owl
party, the opposition elements can much NOR
easily combine, and it is clearly their inten
ton to make the strongest efforts to do so.-
How imperative, then, the obligation on th,
Democracy, soon to assemble in .Nationa
Convention, to give us the man for the occa
sion. Availability without capacity for tn
high and distinguished Office of President O
the United States we should be ashamed t
advocate, but where it is coupled with grea
governmental experience and high intellectual
attainments, it should not be overlooked.

LIBEL sUIr.-A somewhat singular case of
libel is in course of trial at Morristown, N j.,
the parties being young lady named Dun

young lady, from the clothes line, where it
was hanging, and after making some marks
on it, publicly returned it to the owner in the
shape of parcel The charge to the jury

Mr.. BUcHANAN.-The Pittsburg Post in
alluding to the nomination of this gentleman
says desperate are the efforts of the K.
Ms and Republican," now, to prevent
the nomination of Mr.. Buchanan by the
Cincinnati Convention. His nomination would
destroy those last shadows of chance for the
opposition. Rut they are very poor politi-
clans indeed, if they do not see that this be.
trayal of their fears of Mr.. Buchanan does
but add strength to his claims, and encour-
ages his friends. 1t is an admission of his
popularity with the masses of the people, and
of the certainty of his election if nominated.
And we think now that his nomination is al
most assured. State after State pronounces
for him in unequivocal terms, and from all
parts of the Union come the opinions of the
Press, that no other candidate could, at the
present time, poll so large vote as the Great
Pennsylvania.

GOVERNOR PoLLocK.-The Governor is still
absent from Harrisburg, and how long ne may
remain at his home in Milton Northumber-
land county is uncertain. He has not yet
signed the General Appropriation bill, the
claim bill, the bill relative to Gbels, or the
supplement to the bill consolidating the city
of Philadelphia. These are all important
bills, and such as demanded instant action i'm
mediately upon their passage by the legisla-
ture. The public creditors of the common
wealth. we suppose will however, have to pa
tiently suffer, and wait until his Excellency
sees proper to release them from his brooches
pocket. 1t is hoped that as the Philadelphia
election is now over they will soon be brought
to light, and that the tricks of the know
Nothings" will be fully exposed, as they have
failed in their expectation of gslling the
people"

Amendments to the Libel Law.

The following important bill was passed at
the late Session of the Legislature. A mea-
sure of this kind has long been needed, and
freedom of the press will now be placed upon
a footing more in accordance with the spirit
of the age.
The old English law of libel is shorn of its
terrors, and the maxim "the greater the
the truth the greater the libel" will no lon
ger govern our courts and juries, when the
publication is made for public information" !"
Section 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the Common
wealth of Pennsylvania in General Assembly
met, and it is hereby enacted by authority of
the same, That from and after the passage of
this act, on the trial of indictments for wri-
ting or publishing libel, the truth of the
matter charged as ibelous may be given in
evidence, and if the jury in any such case
shall find that the same was written or publish
ed properly for public information, and the
act was induced by good motives and with no
malicious intent, and that the matter so charg-
ed is true, it shall operate to the acquittal of
defendant or defendants.
Section 2. That in actions for damages for
the writing or publishing a libel, where the
truth is pleaded and given in evidence, if it
be found that the same was written or pub
lished properly for public information, and
with no mischevious or malicious motives, the
jury may find for the defendant or defendants.
