proprietor of "White's Hotel" at Easton
and we'll known to many of our citizens
as whole souled, clever gentleman, takes
charge of the United States Hotel, OF tha

The Jury Reform,

Two bills have lately been introduced
into the Legislature with this object, and
both propose to effect it in the same man
ner. Mr.. McCIures bill in the House Of
Representatives is as follows:
An Act to change the manner Of select
inc iuries in the several counties Of this
Commonwealth.
Section l. Be 1t enacted by the
Senate and House Of Representatives, Of
the Commonwealth Of Pennsylvania IN
General As3cn,Jly met and 1t as hcre5y
enacted By the sqn1e, That at the next
General election and every year there
after, the qualified electors OF the several
counties Of this Commonwealth shall
elect two of their citizens in each county
jury commissioners, whose duty it shall
be to select the grand and petit juries in
the several counties, and perform all du-
ties pertaining thereto III Ike manner as
they are now performed by the sheriffs
and county commissioners PrOrided
houeuer, That the qualified electors at
each and every ELECTION shall vote for but
one candidate for said Office Of jury com
missioner.
Section ?. In case Of vacancies 10
said Office the court of common pleas Of
the proper county shall Ell such vacan-
cies BY appointment until the next gen
eral election.
Section 5. The pay Of said jury com
missoner8 shall be three dollars each per
day for every day they may be actually
employed in the discharge of their duties
to be paid by the commissioners of the
proper county, Provit}ed That this act
shall not apply to the city Of Philadel-
phia aud the county A!leg gheny,
\ later bill, introduced in the Senate
by Mr.. Householder, embodies the same
idea of electing Commissioners on the
plan of clecting inspectors, but is much
more full and explicit, and is, probably,
preferable on that account.

@We we're pleased to take by the

rOur friend of the Milford Eagle broke
out in new spot in his last issue. Having
settled the Enrolment Board to his satisfac-
tion, we presumed that our friend had regain
ed his wanted good humor: but feeling that
somebody has stirred the irritable within him
by giving his toes most unmerciful squeeze,
he suspects the Hon. Henry d. Maxwell, of
Easton, and s'pitches into him like thousand
of brick" AS Judge Maxwell has lived in
the District long enough to obecome acquain-
ted with its people, and for the people to be-
Eagle can but fall harmless at his feet, and,
at most, hut recoil upon its author. 1t will
be hard, indeed, to make those who know the
Judge believe that he has taken the distri-
hutton Of the local Offices of Pike county in
TO his keeping.
We regret, exceedingly, that the path Of
our friend should again be crossed by dis
appointment, and we would most affection
ately, and most sympathisingly, remind him
that it is as true now, as it was in the Gays
of Robby Burns, that
"The best laid plans O. mice an men
Aft gang glee."
This trueism may be one of the "Old Fossils
with which our friend appears to be particu-
larly at war, but we can assure him that it's
vitality is SO perfect that he will be lucky
man indeed if he does not, in the course of
his life, receive repeated reminders of its stir
ring existence.
We are reminded, however, that it is con-
venient, occasionally, forsuch temperaments
as control the Eagle, TO have post to kick
against, when underlined causes vex them;
and as we are satisfied that such attacks as
the Eagle isdulges cannot possibly iujure
Judge Maxwell, we do not know but that he
might as well be the Eagles post as any one
else.

All hail unfurl the Stripes and Stars
The banner of the free
Ten times ten thousand patriots greet
The shrine Of Liberty
Come, with one heart. one hope, one aim
An undivided band,
To elevate, with solemn rites,
The ruler of our land !
Not to invest a potentate
With robes Of majesty;
Nor to confer king or crown,
Nor bend a subject knee,
We bow beneath no sceptred sway;
O5ey no royal nod
| Columbia's sons, erect and Tree,
Knecl only to their God!
Our ruler boasts no titled rank;
No ancient, princely line;
No regal right to sovereignty,
Ancestral and divine.
A patriot at his country's call
Responding to her voice;
tOne of the people he becomes
A sovereign by our choice F.!
And now, before the mighty pile
We've reared to Liberty,
He swears to cherish and defend
The charter Of the free
God of our country seal his oath
With Thy supreme assent,
! God save. the Union of the States
God save our President.

A NEW OIL STRIKE.
THE JACKSON OIL COMPAN

1tlE JAChSON Oi1 OOhI nv l.
A despatch was received in Philadelphia
a few days ago. to the effect that a large
well yielding 200 barrels daily, had just been
struck. at the mouth of the East Sandy Creek,
on the Allegheny River, one hundred rods
above the lands of the jackson Oil Company.
In consequence Of this intelligence the Stock
ofthis Company is greatly enhanced in val
ue, and we learn that the Directors are not
anxious to sell any more shares at the sub
scription price, as it is the opinion of many
that before the summer is past it will readi-
ly command 50 per share.
We learn that application has been made
TO the Company for privilege to make a
steamboat landing On their property, at a
point opposite the mouth of the West Sandy.
as it is designed to establish depot there
for the shipment of oil to Pittsburg. OF
course this tends also 10 increase the value
of the property, and those persons who wish
to subscribe to the stock must do so soon, as
the subscription books will probably close in
a short time.
For particulars consult the Prospectus, to
be found in another column.

The Confirmation of Mr.. McCulloch.

The unanimous confirmation of the
Hon. Hugh McCulloch, to-day, as Secre-
tary of the Treasury, is another evidence
of the estimation in which he is held as
fancier and as gentleman Of cour-

generally believed that the Hon. Freeman
Clarke, of New York, late member of
Congress, will be his successor as Com
ptroller of the Treasury, although the
nomination has not yet been made.
