Mob law in Northampton County. The Easton Argus, Democratic, publishes an exciting account a mob which collected at Mooresburg, in that County, ac broke up a meeting of a Know Nothing Lodge. The members of the secret organization assembled quietly in an upper story of a public house, and while transacting their business, the mob of opposing politicians gathered around the exterior of the house, armed with a fifty-six toand cannon, which they fired off until broke all the window glass in the house, Every man in the mob, not engaged aud Baritou Canal and Amboy loading and firing the cannon, was armed Companies was held at Bordeutown on Mitb some noisy musical instrument, Thursday, and a semi-annual dividend as a horn, bugle trumpet, bass arum with jof pj cent wn3 d(lcsLVcd pajable in mcu they all kept up such a defenmg on the 17th iust Th ff th noise tuat the lodge was obliged to dis One op the Men.

By the 29th section of the act of 15th of March, 1852, it is made the duty of every Register, before he allows the accounts of executors and administrators, to carefullv examine the same, and re- quire the accountants to produce their voucuers or oiuer sauMuciury uviuuhl-i; ui the several terms in their account. arc similar to those of an Auditor appointed by the Orphans' Court.

By the 27th section of the same act, the Keg ister is allowed a fee of for tbi service; in practice however it is never done, although the fee has always been i charged, and is included in the 50,0" usually paid to the Register, when an account is filed. On Friday the Orphans' Court condemned this omission, aud refused to confirm the administration accounts that have been Sled in the Register's office i-ince the new Register, Mr. Baskirk, can into office. Judge Jones said that hereafter the Register would be required to comply strictly with the act of Assembly, and that the Court would not act on any account unless it had been first passed upon by the Register.

Pickpockets among" the Ladies. All ot our larger cities arc b) a class of rouges who devote themselves to the picking the pockets of ladies perhaps. because they think the chances ot capture, in case of detection are slighter, or perhaps because they think that in there days of women's rights these ladies' hold the purse strings aud carry the money. In New York, a few days since two well men got into au omnibus, 'and assuming opposite seats, accideutly, as it seemed, threw portions of their cloaks over the dresses oTtwo ladies who sat beside them. After riding a short distance they stopped the coach and went their way.

Wo observe that potatoes have been imported from Scotland froland. into New York, and sold at! prices four-fold grca'gr than the usual prices at home. It is true that the cropi 1 in this state are short, but in the eastern states there has been a full average crop, and if we are not greatly mistaken, potatoes will be worth less next April than now.

Soldiers of thenar oi The national convention of the soldiers of the war of 181.2, with Great Britain, assembled in Washington, on the. 8th infant, a day memorable in the military annals of this country, and one which may compare proudly with that of the Alma or of Inkermaun, or any other that has been signalized by high aud heroic achievement. There was in attendance, a largo number of the patriotic defenders of their country, during the war that has been not improperly designated the second "War of Independence not less than seven hundred, wc have been informed.

They called in a body on Pres ident Pierce, by whom they were most cordially received, and at five o'clock, reassembled in convention for the transaction of business. The result of the session was the adoption, unanimously, of the following preamble and resolutions Forty vcars have now elapsed since General Jackson fought and won the last great battle of the late war with Great Britain at New Orleans; and that glorious anniversary is a fitting day for the surviving soldiers of that war, to meet and take counsel together. This city. too, named after the Father of ouk Country, is a most appropriate place for our assemblage. I he war of the Revo lution achieved our liberty the war of 1812 secured it While the green sod marks the graves of our revolutionary fathers, a few oulv of those who staked their lives in our lact immortal contact, survive to tell the tale of their sufferings and services by far the greater number have passed down to their last homes on earth many of them in penury and want.

In less than forty "years after tiic close of our revolutionary struggle, a grateful! Congress of the United States, passed a general pension law for the benefit of the surviving officers and soldiers, at a time when the Treasury was empty, and heavy war debts were hanging over us. Is it, then, unreasonable for us to ex-pcet that similar justice will be done to the survivors of the war of 1812, nnd the widows and children of those who arc dead, while the public Treasury is 'overflowing with gold, and we have, comparatively, no debts to pay Or is it asking too much to have fair portions of the public domain, which wc fought and paid for, allotted to us Wc think not. Be it therefore resolved, That a committee be appointed to memorialize Congress on thi3 subject, and to urge upon our Senators and Representatives to make each oficcr, soldier, sailor, and marine who served during the war of 131214, appropriate of land at least one hundred and sixty acres to the lowest grade, aud for the shortest time of actual service. The benefit of 'the law to extend to the widows and children of those who are dead. Resolved, That similar provision ougTit to be made for our red brcthern who fought bj- our side, and all those confined in foreign prisons during an' part of the war of 112, if alive, and also to the prisoners in Tripoli, who wore forced to labor as slaves or felons.

If dead, then to their widows or children. Resolved, That while wc deeply dc- piore the untimely deaths of so many of our brcthern in arms, we pledge ourselves ever to aid and protect their bereaved widows and orphans, and here, on this most interesting occasion, we extend to each other the right hand of fellowship, and bind ourselves by every sacred obligation to stand by each other while we live, in defense of all our rights at home and abroad. Resolved, That Congress ought to ex-tend to the-soldiers of the late war and their widows, the same pension systemn adopted lor those ot the devolution, ana the thanks of this convention are hercDy nerve already to move in this matter, Resolved, That in our judgement, every Mcsotvcd, 1 hat in our judgement, every principle oi justice require uiuu wt i pensions should commence from the time cn the wounds were received or dia- bilities incurred in the service of the U- nited States. Resolved, That our grateful acknowledgments are hereby tendered to the Hon. Mr.

Brodhead, Senator from Pennsylvania, and to other Senators and Repre- entatives who have co-operated with him I 1 1 in endeavoring to nave justice uone 10 and that we also recognize our great ob- fration to the patriotic editors of the pub lic pJsss, who have so ably and efficiently sustained our cause. We hope they will notbe weary in well-doing, butspread our present proceedings through their columns, from one end of the Republic to the other. Resolved, That each State delegation now present be appointed a special committee to wait upon their respective Senators and Representatives, and urge them to aid in obtaining justice. Resolved, That in order to obtain justice for ourselves, and the widows aud orphans of our deceased brother soldiers, it is important to have a complete organization in each Stato of the soldiers of the war of 1812-14. Resolved, That when we look back on the past history of our country, and the great result of the war of 1812, in securing the respect of foreign nations, in consolidating our free institutions, in increasing our love and veneration for the heroes aud sages who established our inimitable form of Government, in proving to us the inestimable value of our glorious Union and priceless liberty, "now and forever, one and indivisible," wo cannot forget our debt of gratitude to James Madison, who fearlessly recommended the declaration of war against Great Britain, or the bravo men in Congress who voted for it, led on br the immortal Henry Clay, William Lowndes, and John C.

Culhoun. Resolved, That inasmuch as those who performed military duty in the war of 1812, and their children and representatives are scattered over all parts of our vast torritory, the Congress of the United States, in granting our petition, will euti- tie itself to the grateful prayers of millions of human beings, now looking with anxious hopes to us and to them. Resolved, That the monument to Washington, now being erected in this city, is one alike due to his illustrious services, and to the national honor, and ought to be finished by Congress, with all convenient speed. Resolved, That such of the Old Thir teen States as have not acted in relation to the nronosed construction of the monu ment to the signers of the Declaration of Independence, in Independence Square, in Philudelnhia. be respectfully requested to take the necessary steps to carry that ruitriotic object into effect.

There is at present in circulation a counterfeit gold dollar.

It is made of pure brass gilt. It "differs but slightly from the genuine coin, in its appearance; though a close inspection of the wreath, on one side, will show they are uot exactly the same. The weight of this counterfeit is only 16 grains, while that of tho reuuine is 28. The differeuce in weight is such as to bo plainly perceptible, on comparing the two, notwithstanding the dimunitive size of the coin3. The counterfeit is a dangerous one, from the fact that being so small, it is not apt to be so closely scrutinized as would be a larger coin.

The Arkansas Herald recently publish ed an alarming account of a supposed volcano, in Scott county, in that State. A correspondent ot the same paper writes as follows respecting it: About one year ago, while travelling in Franklin county, in this State, my attention was attracted by the report of a similar esplosion, which was said to have been so violent as to project rocks and other heavy substances to a great height in the atmosphere. Not feeling much disposed to credit the various exaggerated accounts given of the phenomenon, I proceeded lo investigate for myself, and soon became convinced that it was owing, not to volcanic eruption but to the decom-nnsition of subhuret of iron, (iron pyn- Xs, one ol.Wo IrnYi which abound tins region, aim i nrna Ims which, uncier ccuam unfl l-nown to undergo spontaneous uu composition, attended with a loud noise, and the evolution of light, heat, and sul-nimrnns vanor.
