The National Intelligencer, of Saturday last, mentions that WILLIAM J. DUANE, the new Secretary of the Treasury, has entered upon the duties of his office. THE EXAMINER LANCASTER8 8 THURSDAY JUNE 6, 1833. LA counter -communication on the subject of the Shoriff's election, appears in our paper to-day. The second communication from sent in, as the first was, during our absence from was withdrawn by the writer before our return.

We are not aware that it contained any. thing that would have rendered it inadmissible. Not intending to interfere in the discussion in any way ourselves, we think it but consistent with the character of a free press to allow those who choose to use our columns, the privilege of expressing their sentiments pro or con on the proposition submitted, provided they do it temperately and within due limits. We would suggest, however, that it would save both sides much labor, probably without affecting the result, if the discussion wore now suspended and the question left for the decision of the Delegate Convention. The Supreme Court terminated its session for the Lancaster District on Wednesday at noon ing some days earlier in the week assigned tothis county, than has been apprehend that tho "Intelligencer" was misinformed, when applauding the efforts of the Court and ascribing to it the merit of having "succeeded in diposing of all the causes upon our list." Several cases on the argument list, of some importance, we learn have not been disposed of, and will of course have to lie, as the lawyers say, "in gremio legis" for another year.

Four hundred and sixty-five dollars and twen. ty cents have been collected in this city for the benefit of the Cumberland sufferers, and remitted to the Committee of Distribution. The letter of Mr. McKaig, acknowledging the receipt of the contribution, contains the following copy of a resolution adopted by the Committee. "Resolved, That the thanks of the Committee, acting in behalf of the sufferers by the late fire at Cumberland, be tendered to the citizons of Lancaster, Pa.

for their very liberal and truly generous donation of $465 29 aid of those has befallen our unhappy town." have suffered a by the desolating calamity which The Conestoga Navigation was sold at Sheriff's sale on Saturday evening last, for $17,500, sub ject a mortgage of about $7,000. The purchaser is said to be WILLIAM COLEMAN, Esq. of this city. We regret to loarn that the northern and southern sections of this county were visited by a violent storm of wind and rain, on Sunday evening last. In the latter section, particularly, the violence of the wind is said to have been very great, prostrating trees, fences, and buildings in its course.

We have not heard particulars, and hope that the accounts may prove to have been exaggerated. Rumour says that the President will leave Washington to-day, to commence his tour through the northern and eastern states; and the same authority adds, in a whisper, that he will not visit Lancaster, either going or returning. The former part of the story is probably true--whether the latter is, time will show. We publish to day a fourth letter from ExPresident Adams to the Grand High Priest. It contains a sort of argumentum ad hominem bear.

ing with much force against the mute dignitary, inasmuch as it conjures up the "melancholy ghosts" of his past "renown" and causes them to hiss at his yet living fame. The Litiz School. Having been disappointed in our expectation of being able to witness the examination of Mr. Beck's School at Litiz, this spring, we cannot from personal observation of the proficiency of the scholars in that institution, but have heard their productions and performances spoken of in strong terms of praise. The editor of the Columbia Spy, who enjoyed the gratification where.

of business deprived us, and who is both an intelligent observer and a competent judge, has noticed the examination in an approbatory article which we take pleasure in transferring to our columns. The country between this city and York, which we had an opportunity to see last week, presents a beautiful and luxuriant appearance at this season -promising an abundant recompense for the hus. bandman's toil. The corn and oats in the fields along the turnpike, however, are more advanced and in better condition in York county than in this. How they would compare in other sections of the two counties we know not.

Some of the best lands in York county are contiguous to the turnpike, which is not the case to the same extent in this county--and hence a comparison based on such limited observation, might probably lead to erroneous conclusions. The trial of Avery was probably ended on Saturday evening. The examination of witnesses closed on Thursday, 109 persons having been examined for the prosecution, and 132 for the prisoner. The counsel for the prisoner concluded his speech in defence on Friday; the Attorney General was to follow on Saturday, and it was thought he would conclude before evening, in time for the Court to deliver its charge to the Jury. P.

-Since the foregoing was put in type we have received Poulson's Advertiser of yesterday, which contains the following information of the issue of this long-protracted trial. are indebted to the New York Standard for the following information: The Jury in the case of Avery, after being out sixteen hours, returned with a verdict of NOT The quantity of rain which fell in Philadelphia in the months of April and May this year, as indicated by the raingage kept at the Pennsylvania Hospital, is as follows: In April 0.70 inches. 46 May 5.88 Seven inches of rain fell at Washington city, within the month of May; which, according to the National Intelligencer, is a greater quantity han was ever before known to fall at that place within the same period. The Legislature of Connecticut has passed a law prohibiting free coloured persons from set. tling that State.

We suppose the "powers that be" in authority there mean to the renown of the Commonwealth, by enacting a code of black laws supplementary to their cele. brated code of blue laws. The Grand Jury at Alexandria, D. C. had under consideration on Saturday, the assault committed by Randolph on the President.

The perpetrator of the outrage, is we believe, now somewhere in Virginia. The Wheeling Board of Health reports, under date of the 28th ult. ten deaths by Cholera subsequent to the 24th, and thirteen new cases, of which six were considered doubtful, and seven convalescent. Twelve or thirteen deaths by Cholera occurred in Cincinatti, in the week prior to the 27th ult. On the 21st, the St.

Louis (Missouri) papers stated that the disease had disappeared from that eity, its prevalence having been limited to about fifteen days. It is said that the proscription list prepared by the "Kitchen Cabinet" at Washington, for the guidance of the President, has beon thrown under the table by him, with strong expressions of disapprobation. OLIVER WOLCOTT, who held the office of Secretary of the Treasury under President Washington after Gen. Hamilton retired, and was continued in the same post by the elder Adams, and who was subsequently elected Governor of Connecticut, died on Saturday evening last, in the city of New York, at the advanced age of nearly -four New York American says of character of Mr. Wolcott was strongly marked.

Storn, inflexible and devoted, in all that duty, honor and patriotism enjoined, he was in private life of the utmost gentleness, kindness, and simplicity. With strong original powers, which the "stirring events of the revolutionary days in which he was born, early developed, he had acquired a habit of self-reliance, which little fitted him for that sort of political co-oporation which results from expediency rather than right. He aimed at the right always, and at all events, according to his best convictions; and if any questioned his judgement, none could impeach his honesty and sincerity." To the Editor of the Examiner. Mr. WAGNER was very sorry to perceive, a communication in your paper of the 22d ult.

under the signature of "DONEGAL" upon the subject of the approaching election for Sheriff. It is best a delicate question, and one that requires to be approached with extreme caution; and any attempt to depart from the established usages of the party in relation to it, cannot fail to be attended with pernicious consequences. 1 must confess that the zeal manifested by "Donegal," when taken in connection with some other circumstances that have recently come under my observation, induces me to believe that he is actuated rather more by a desire to advance the interests of a particular candidate, at the sacrifice of all the rest, than by a disposition to prevent distraction and division in the party of which he claims to be a member. It has hitherto been the custom of the different parties of the county to place the names of two of the candidates upon regularly nominated ticket, leaving the people to decide between them. -This course is due to the people as as to the candidates; so far as my observation extends, it has never yet given rise to the contingency deprecated by "Donegal and there i is infinitely less to be feared from its continuance, than there is from the measure recommended by him.

He admits that either of the candidates of the antimasonic party possess the requisite qualifications for a proper discharge of duties pertaining to the station, and it is therefore manifestly improper for him to attempt to interfere between them. If two of them are fairly placed upon the ticket, there is no reason to doubt but that the unsuccessful candidates will acquiesce in the decision and cheerfully withdraw from the contest whilst if the opposite course be pursued, there is every reason for believing that we shall have a host of volunteers running in opposition to the settled candidate, the inevitable conseof which will be the defeat of quences them all, and the election of a masonic Sheriff. DONEGAL WEST. June 5, 1833. learn, that the action brought by our fellow-citizen, Mr.

James Wright, against the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road Company, for the infringement of a patent right, has been decided in his favor. The trial came on before the Circuit Court of the United States for Maryland district, held in Baltimore, and occupied the attention of the same for twenty-five days. On Wednesday the jury returned a verdict of 2100 dollars damages, which on motion of plaintiff's counsel was trebled by the Court--making the whole sum $6,300. An appeal to the Supreme Court was prayed on behalf of the defendants. The improvement claimed by Mr.

Wright, is "the combination of a cone on the edge (or face) of the wheels of the cars, with a vibratory motion of the axles, to cause the car to pass with equal facility on straight or curved -Columbia Spy. mention a freak of a couple of elephants exhibitELEPHANT The Now Bedford papers ing in menagerie in that neighborhood, during the past week. Being tired of confinement they broke loose in the night, and destroyed all the carriages in the yard, which were employed to transport the cages of the more restrained captives, and after gamboling about at random with delight at their feats, quietly submitted to the directions of their keepers. Extraordinary Richmond Enquirer publishes an account of the late outrage on the President, which states that "Major Donelson rushed through the table in his anxiety to protect the President." "We have before us several impressions of seals, engraved by Mr. William Wagner of this place.

One is a new seal for the office of the Surveyor General of Pennsylvania, executed in a style of elegance and neatness that we have never seen surpassed; doing honor alike to the excellence of Mr. Wagner's taste, and to his mechanical skill. The merits of the new seal become more conspicuous when it is compared with the old seal of the Surveyor General's department. In the latter we have a bird bearing a strong resemblance to a buzzard, surmounting the escutcheon; in the new one we recognize at once a finely engraved. highly finished and exactly proportioned American eagle, its feathers appearing as though a breath of air would ruffle them.The other figures on the seal; the ship in full sail; the waves of the ocean; the plough; the sheaves of wheat; are all executed in a manner worthy of high commendation.

Among other impressions before us, we have one which satisfies us that there is no branch of seal engraving in which our ingenious townsman cannot do himself credit. We allude to a very neat seal for a savings institution in one of our cities, the ornament of which is a head of Franklin. To preserve the likeness of heads engraved in basso is no doubt one of the most difficult operations in the whole business of seal engraving. The head of Franklin in this seal bears a striking likeness to all the best prints and other representations of the great "master of the forked lightning," that we have ever Wagner is, we believe, self-taught; the eminence which he has attained in his art is, consequently, the more honorable and meritorious." -York County Farmer.

They confine themselves mostly to the woods, and from sunrise to sun-set keep up an incessant buzzing, not unlike the ringing of thousands of little bells, so that it is dfficult to hear any thing else. -090- Charcoal respectable citizen of Washington city, recommends a plaster of charcoal as preferable to any poultice for the cure of sores, or any eruption on the body, and states that a boy belonging to him who was unable to use his legs from a sore, was soon cured by charcoal application, when other medicines had been ineffective. -aceTravelling On dits, sc. It is said that the Vice President after having made the tour of New England with the President, will go down the Mississippi, and see the "great west" for the first time. We believe it.

The Hon. Daniel Webster has set out on a visit to the western states. He will be accompanied by his lady to Gennessee river. Stephen White, Esq. formerly of Salem, is in his party.

It is his first visit to the West. Mr. Clay is expected to visit New England in July or August. He will not proably leave Kentucky till he shall have wel. comed Mr.

Webster to his domain. It is Mr. Clay's first visit to the East. Mr. Calhoun, it is said, will visit the Virginia Hot Sulpher Springs this summer.

Generally the Nullifiers will flee to the mountains for cool shades, but particularly to the sulpher springs. Mr. Calhoun is a charming man in society, and knows better in his heart than to be a nullifier -but what can he do? General Hamilton sits a month on the cool edge of the Table Mountain. Col. Dick Johnson, as the "workies" call him, will not travel this summer, unless it be a flying trip over the Ohio, to see how Judge McLean tends his crop.

Judge McLean will visit all the state of Ohio a little further west and may probably come over the mountains. He does things very quietly. It is also said that the President of the U. S. Bank will visit the western States this summer.

Apart from all "fair business transactions," Mr. Biddle is a man of science, literature, and fine taste. He has a considerable portion of a "magician" about him too. Governor Cass gees down to New England -he is a native of New Hampshire, but no fireeater. Governor Wolf, it is said, intends to visit Easton soon.

General McKean is still at the north--cooling himself. Judge Sutherland and Doctor Burden, are, or were recently, at Washington.They may be in New York soon. Travelling is nothing now-a-days. The Postmaster General is expected to make a visit into Virginia in the season of visiting the Hot Sulphur Springs. The editor of the Harrisburg Reporter has taken a trip somewhere, but we can't tell the direction.

Several prominent editors will also be wandering about the country soon--they had better stay at home end attend to business. We are going to New York soon to commence actions, and institute indict. ments for a libel against the editors, proprietors, of the Evening Post and Standard-but that's on a "fair business transaction."

The number of passengers between Baltimore and Fredericktown exceeds 400 daily. We learn, says the Easton Whig, that on 1 Saturday last there was a fracas between a party of the miners at Mauch Chunk, and some of the people at Mahoney Val. ley, in which three of the miners were shot, and three or four of the Germans badly hurt.

We snppose the Irishman used bludgeons and the Dutch neighbours -these being their usual weapons. Whan our informant wrote, he stated that none of the miners are dead, althodgh one is supposed to be mortally wounded. The Germans although, badly wounded, are not supposed to be dangerously hurt. A From the Gennessee Farmer. CATERPILLARS.

A friend of mine wishes to inform the public of his method of destroying the Caterpillars onifruit trees. Wherever he discovers a nest of them, he with a swab of tow on the end of a pole, applies, brine to them; he says that it is certain death to all that the brine touches. If this is so I should think a more expeditious way would be, to apply the brine to the worms through the medium of a common syringe, or "squirt gun;" I am inclined to think that the brine would be injurious to the young fruit, if there should happen to be any on the tree. My method of destroying the Caterpillar is to shoot I examine my trees once in three or four days, (during the season of their depredations) carly in the morning while the worms are still in their nest. and, if I discover any, put a light charge of powder only, into my, gun, and blow away worms, all.

I do not use a wad because it would be in danger of bruising the limbs of the trees. -epeThe Virginia Free Press proposes as a means of reforming political error, that in lieu of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States shall be publicly read every fourth of July, and that it be also made a part of the School exercise of this country.
