The Baker Concert,

This celebrated and world renowned fam
ily, gave one Of their So@l-air,ng Con-
certs, on Thursday evening last, in the
Court House of Columbia, at Bloomsbury,
to the largest and most respectable audi
ence ever assembled in our "Halls of Just
ice" To say that the Concert gave salts
faction--evcn universal satisfaction,-'
would convey but an inadequate idea Of the
feelings of delight with which the entire
performance was received-for every piece
and part of the lengthy programme, was
applauded by the audience and received
with rapturous delight. 1t was the most
entertaining Concert, in every aspect and
barring, ever given in Bloomsbury, and
although it followed a two day Convention
and Musical Concert, just closed by Prof
Perkins, aud his Ciass--which was GER
tainly an excellent performance of the
kind-so general was the admiratian fol
the "BAKER Family that they were
strongly importuned by many of our frs
citizens to repeat the performance on thu
subseauent evening, for which they were

pended, while these miserable political
trickstors play their paltry game OF fast
aud loose in thrusting forward measute
which they would be very unwilling to
have succeed. Both manufacturers and
importers desire stability, far more than
anything else, and while a few slight
changes might be acceptable, neither in
terest has asked for any such measure as
that now before the country. 1t is apoit-
ical scheme, without a prctext of fairness,
and covering a bundle of irreconcilable
absupdities, which could issue in no prac-
tcablo good to any part of the country,

From III, n. Y. Express of last Evening
'Fhe Post Office DefalCalions-Furthcr
Particulars

Mr.. Orfutt, the agent Of the Auditor 5
Bureau, will return to Washington this
(Tuesday) evening, leaving the inycstiga-
ton into Mr.. FoY'prs affairs in the hands
of Mr., Guthrie of the Treasury Depart
mcnt. 1t appears, from the examination
as far us it has proceeded, that prior to
the lst of October 1858, Mr.. Fowler's set.
Elements were full and satisfactory. At
that time there was balance in his favor
of 81, ,lGl. The defalaaticn, or the great
erpart of it, has therefore probably &C.
Cured within a year.
It will however, be "A work of much

The Forney Game.

Col. Forney, the Black Republican and
Know Nothing Clerk of he House of Rep
rcsentatives, has, r'some time, through
his /" Press" been protesting great regard
for Judge Douglas---so much so that those
who do not know Forncy, and were not
aware that he has sold himself to the
Black Republicans, might suppose that he
would support Douglas for the Presidcncy,if
nominated by the Democratic party. But
this is all prctcnce, on the part of the
" Press" editor and Abolition Clerk.
Forney is douasl to support the Opposition
candidate for the Presidency, and is just
rs certain to cast his vote and influence
against Judge Douglas or any other man
who may be the Democratic nominee, as is
John Hickman; and Hickman's position is
well known to be for the Chicago Rcpubli-
can, and against the Democratic candi-
date.
Forncy's object in protesting to- favor
Douglas, is to advance the cause Of his
Abolition Republican, masters. He be-
lievcs that Douglas cannot and will not 10
nominated by free National Democratic
Convention representing the regular De-
mocraey Of all the States, and in case of
J the nomination Of some other man, hopes,
from his Douglas professions, to be able,
by an outcry against the South and the
Administration, to draw off anti Lccom
ton men from the Democratic candidate
This is Forncy's great purpose. If, how
ever, by some means, Douglas should sue
coed in getting the nomination from the
Democratic Convention, Or portion Of it,
Forncy feels assured the result would bca
division of the party and consequent de.
feat.
Thus, according to the programme Of
Forncy profcs,cd Dougasism, he would
have the Democracy defeated, whether
Douglas is nominated or not. In this, VIC
trust there will be wisdom and patriotism
sufficient at Baltimore on the 18th of
June, to disappoint him, by union of tn
Democracy Oh some sound National Dem
ocrat, upon a sound National platform.
The friends of Douglas-at least all Of
i them who have any desire for avoiding
tsectonali-m, and keeping the Democratic
! Lpairty unitcd-nust see that their favoritG
i, not the man for the present crisis, that
l. This nomination hazards too much to be
) now vcnturcd on that if they had the
!, power to force his nomination, it would =,
; under the present aspect Of the politics of
the country, be unpatriotic to nominate,-
: and seeing this, we have strong confidence
e they will, with those who have opposed
= him, compr ,misc and harmonic on some
IL able, true and worthy man, and thereby
Il blast the hopes and schemes Of the Aboli
tonists and their Forncy and Hickman

Qeu IIcnry L. Foster.

The tollowni eloquent and Just tribute
to the character and qualifications of Gen
Henry ID. FOSTER, the Democratic can.
didatc for Governor OF this State, wa,
made by the Hon WILLIAM 4. PORTER,
III the course Of speech at a recent Dem
ocratic Mass Meeting in Philadelphia:
"And now perhaps, as my hand is in,
you will cXpc:4 to hear something of Cen
cral Foster. Very well. Little need be
said Of his public career, for that is as well
known to. you as to me. He has been Il
member Of the State Legislature and of the
National Legislature, and he has measured
his strength with the great men Of the
country. At all times he has preserved
his escutehron from spot, and i'll these
times, let ne tel you, that is something,
| never heard an act Imputed to Gene.
Foster unworthy of high-toned gent
man. AS member of the party his c
duet has been especially prudcn& Whc.
he has differed from other party leaders,
hc has refrained from striking the Eparty
itself for the errors committed by them,
Z
Of the people should work the correction,
But | am best able to speak of him as II
lawyer. There is one thing true Of every
lawyer, and that is that his reput alton is
always genuine. The poor ass who should
venture into court of justice with any
other skin cn him than his own, would he
very likely to come out without any skin

ter has, for more than twenty years main
tanned supremacy at the bar over large
district otscountry such as that which lies
south Of the Allegheny river, between the
borders OF Virginia and the Allegheny
mountains, and where ho has been employ
, ed IN all the most important controversis'
which have arisen there respecting the pr.
vate rights of men, think you may take
it for granted, without much doubt, that he
, is just what he seems to be. Indeed, if |
} have read him Alright, the combination Of
. his mental qualities is rare one, that OF
the very coolest judgment and the very
greatest quickness. | do not know any
man cut of the city of Philadelphia who
l can more rapidly concentrate all the eneE
= gies of his mind on any one point. These
are among the highest attributes of minG.
and our present candidate possesses ahcn
: in an eminent degree. In his social rela
lions, his character is full of interest
do not believe there is man here VIII
could talk With Gen. Foster half an hou
V without feeling for him sentiment o
: friendship. There is no coldness, no as
y. sumption, no fawning, no double dealing
1t there is no selishness, no grasping no Gu
y pidity. In other words my fellow citizsn
: l believe We have gotten hold of genuin
: man for our candidate, and if he were no
= so, you never would have heard that vas
= shout walked its echoes in the valley OF til
il Schuylkill, when his name was suggeste'
v to the late Convention, thus sseepEip

The ADJOURNED BALTIMORE CoNVEN-
due consultation, an address
to the seeding Charleston Convention from
the Democratic members of Congress has
been prepared ,and is being very generally
signed by them, preparatory to its publ
cation. The Star says:
1t is understood to set forth the urgent
necessity of their return to the Convention
when that rcassembles Oh the 18th of June
proxilno, at Baltimore. 1t is further un-
derstood to embrace proof sufficient to sat
isfy the most sceptiral of the seceders that
on re-assembGhg, the Convention Will a
dopt as the platform of the Democratic
party the report of the Platform Commit
tee endorsed by the delegations as the sew
enteen Democratic States, and that a har'
monious nomination can and will doubtless
be made upon that platform,
From all we have been able to learn il
the premises, we are satisfied that it vii
be signed by every Democratic member o
both Houses of Congress not well know
| here either as a disciple Of slavery restrict
ion under the plea ofsquatter sovereignty %
as having be9n more or less disappointed
in not being made a Democratic nomine
for the Vice Presidency, by and througl
the favor of the slavery restriction inter
ests in that body-such expectants having
been much more numerous in Congress
than the outside world dreams of.

Of the kiln after burning or what may be

them uR, Enough may be had at any
BRICK yard for mere trife to last great

root, such as dophenes, heaths, cape jesa,
mines, ETC., l till shallow cutting pots en-
tirely with brick dust, Except about an
inch at the bottom, which is filed with
coarse Jumps of brick, to secure q good
dpainage,) For plants that root more cas-
lily, L use half brick dust aud half sandy
