tht Culide 'lit dad,. NO. 19 VTOL-71 OUR STATE. CONVENTION The Republican State Convention will meet at Harrisburg, on Wednesday, the seventeenth instant to nominate candi date's fdr .6..uditorand_Surveyor_General , As the election for ,these officers, will, doubtless, be the battle-on which 'the for tunes of the next Presidential' campaign will turn, the Action of that convention as sunies a very unusual importance. There may be limes when a political contest may not 'affect anything of greater con sequence, than the success or failure of a few Politicians, but the one in which . we are now engaging must, necessarily, in volve the interests of the entire country. There has been no time since the slose of the'war when a Republican triumph was more necessary to the peace and wel fare of the nation. Emboldened by tome trifling successeand sure of the support of the enfranchised rebels of the South, thO Democratic leader's aro prepared to advocate and sustain measures which must necessarily involve a re-opening of the old issues, now so nearly adjusted forever. The whole question of recon struction, and all -the questions which affect our Natibnal finances, and credit would again be opened, should the De mocracy triumph. The evils attending renewal of these old' controversies, would be incalculable, and they might eventually load to another rebellion. The safety of the Nation, to Say nothing of its future, prosperity, imperatively demands the continuance of Republican rule. To make success assured, in 1872, it is necessary that there ,should be a com plete Republican victory in Pennsylvania, at the coming election. FOr Many years, this State has decided PresidentiaL con tests, and its influence in the coming struggle will be as potent as over before. Tho Democracy are keenly alive to this fact, and will make most extraordinary eiforts to defeat us, iii both the present and coming campaigns. In view of these admitted facts it be comes the duty of the State Convention to consider well their action. It is of the most vital importance that all the in terests of the party should be harmon ized by the selection of such candidates as will add strength to the party, and on whom all can unite in a determined ef fort to achieve a victory. One-half of the fight is already won if the Convention act harmoniously and wisely in the se lection of candidates. • - - TAX COLLECTORS REVIVED The people of this county have been, for-years; relieved of what is always re garded as an insufferable nuisance—we mean tax-gatherers. t On fixed days the, Treasurer has met the people of the dif ferent boroughs and townships, at some _convenient place, and received from them the amounts assessed for State and Coun ty purposes. This method of collecting was admirable in all respects. It pro moted promptness in the collection ()film tax from tho tax-payers, aisd made it certain that the tax when collected was prompPy in the hands of the person Whose duty it was to pay it out. It pre vented many losses on account of de faulting collectors, and often great de lay in getting the money out of the hands of those who Were smart enough to use it for their own purposes as long as pos sible. It also saved fully three per cent on the direct cost of collection. We believe, firmly, that not one man in ten in the county desired to have this law repealed. Its benefits were so manifest, and the defects of the collector system - so.upparent, that there could be no doubt as to the favor with which it was regarded. But the people's desires are not often - consulted by the liolitiCians who run the machine in this county. The new system made one office' less in each township. There was one place less'to be filled, and consequently the hungry fellows became noisy. They quietly determined, that there should be tax-collectors, arid haVing 'so determined, they gave our Senator .and member to , understand, that if a bill were not passed, restoring the office of collector of taxes, there would be trouble when these . gentlemen amps up a g ain for office. Of course this reasoning was conclusive, and the consequence is, that a bill has been passed, and is now in the hands of the Governor, providing for the cle6ion of collectors of the State rind county taxes, in each borough 'and township. It is most lamentable, that this unmiti gated nuisance, and useless expense must be saddled on the people of the county, without .their desire, and in opposition to their wishes. But as king as they see fit to entrust their legislative business in the hands of Democratic politicians they may look for just such performances. WHEN Andrew Johnson was swing ing_arouud the circle, in 18G0, the Demo cratic Council of Harrisbur i g.„entortained - him and his party in great style, at the Bolton' House. With •characteristic • .negligence, those patriots forgot to foot the bill for the entertainment. After Mr. Holton had waited, until patience bad ceased to be a virtue, ho began a suit against the reception committee; Which .Was, last week, decided against him. This is about the' smallest piece of business we bsvo heard of for a long time. The farce of supporting Johnson's administration, for the purpose of Appro. . printing • his offices, was ;despicable . enough,•but doesn'tquito equal the mean ness of cheating a hotel keeper out of his bill . ;:lor'clining and wining a st of Demo cratic politicians.

IlAnnasnuna, May 9, 1871 The Legislature is-now at work under a full head of steam, and the chances are that the session oflB7l ts rapidly near ing its close. This good result has been brought about, in a great measure, by the firmness and determination of 'the Re publicans. After they had secured their Apilortionment bill; purely by a persist ent blocking up of legislative business, the Democratic patriots of the Senate determined that they Would.try the dead lock once more. So they determined they would act - - on no House bills until the Governor bad signed the Apportipn ment bill, and the House had agreed to so modify the election law as to enab them to carry the city of Philadelphia by frauds. But forbearance and com promise had ceased to be a virtue with the Republicans and they in turn refused to pass any Senate bills until the Senate would act upon those already passed by the House. They also held a caucus, and determined td issue an address to the people setting forth the position of af fairs, and showing who, were responsible for this etiminal neglect of business. And better than all else, they resolved that they would make no Modification whatever of the Registry' Law, The Democracy found they were ma ted; and believing discretion the better .part of valor, backed down from their high resolve and went to work. Each House is now passing bills with the greatest rapidity possible, and although a very large number remain undisposed of, and in every conceivable stage of prep aration, -a few days of active work, will to a groat extent clear the calendars. On Wednesday of last week, the House voted to adjourn on Tuesday next, sik toenth instant, and although the Senate Was not yet acted on the resolution, it is thought It will concur. • Tielegislation has not been of any general interest or importance. ,Ninne teen-twentieths of the bills are of a pri vate character, and really corigern no one outside of the localities fk which they belong. Thi3 Border Raid bill has" been reported iu the House, and may, or may not come for final action, as those who are interested in it, are much dis gusted and disheartened by the shape in which it passed the Senate. The Local Option bill has had the breath completely crushed out of it in the Seine?, a result which surprised no one, except 'those Awed ulous_ individuals_who_ preteud_to hope that any good can come out of the Democracy. The Philadelphia Building Commission bill was repealed by the Senate, by almost a unanimous vote, and will most likely meet the. same`fate in the House. The Bates, History busi ness was also closed up iu the Senate, by the passage of an act providing for the payment of that work at the rate of 14.75 per volume. It is evident that the Nino Millions bill will not be offered during the session. For the last two months its appearance has been looked for daily. All sorts of rings and combinations have been formed for the purpose of taking the bonds from their hiding-place, but it is now evident that the conspirators have given up the scheme. So the tax-payers may con gratulate themselves that their property will remain untouched for anodic - r year, and that there are still some chances that the proceeds of the 1411) of their public works will not be turned over to the tender mercies of corporations, which have at present only their names to. identify them. For this good result they are more indebted to' the honesty of their, Governor, than to the wisdom of their legislators. LABOR REFORM. Speech of Governor s Geary at Harris burg, Saturday evening, May 6. FELLOW CITIZeNS :—At the urgent re quest of your Committee on Invitatioh, I consented to meet the labor organiza-, tions of thiS city and its vicinity this evening. This I have done; • although I might'well have pleaded as a reasonable excuse for not doing so, the vast pressure of official business by which I am at . this time surrounded. The glorious princi ples upon which our Government was founded, enunciated by its framers nearly a century • ego, I believe to be true, " that all men are, created' equal ; that they are endowed by their Creator With certain inalienable lights ; that among these are life, liberty and the pur suits of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of th e goveined. '', Ili pirery con flict waged fur the rights of men,' either 'in resistanceto oppression, or., to make way for new truths, the world is a gainer. Under' such principles what . eon be more sublime than the efforts of it people whose object is to elevate all the interests of humanity, nub to advance and purify -the Government under which they live., Such, I am informed, is the - purpose, and such I hope and believe is the •destiny of the great Labor Reform movement now in progress, not only in this .country, but throughout the civilized virOrld. And, those who have this moventent in 'charge must not be unmindful of the responsi bilities which devolve upon them, for all its consequences for good or evil has been confided to them. While there may be disagreements : as to the course and, means to accomplish its objects,, one great duty is clear, thnt you must held. fast to that which is goodi and under God 'put yourabidleg. trust in. the virtue' and intelligence of the whole people. - Upon these-yowunnirrely - niikilefl VIT. 'you nusy'continuie unimpaired the politi cal fabric and the glory of our, Ma'am. tions of which we are fi4), justly proud. Through' many preceding , generations, ; When the Masses of:Mon Were i ati.; gnort' they weie greatly misruled Ana Wronged'; and it is only tlitreci generaleducation Inge prevailed that the people hrivediscovered, their rights,and priyileges, and knowing; " dare aintaiu them.", It is only'sinee humanabor. and ind4try bute: been, properly recognized -by politicums , and . statesmen that Governments have been bitilt - and administered , upon . the rights: that belong to OH - God's- creatures; that, labor, the useftirarts, and alt the splon=-, did triumphs of human skill began thOir irresistible march.' - Thailb' •• results ;are they are'dear to' the heart 'of the patriotic citizen, .and'.they are iris chief Pride and boast, ~ when. ho says to . himself, "I am an Ainerican citizen;"' Fellow Citizens;\ Aniongthoblessinis of our free - institutions is the constituv. tional right of the -Ameriban people to mcet together for the discussion of measures involving their matmial pros; parity and personal welfare. Free dia -1 cussion is part of the personal liberty of the citizen, and when he has a grievance to redress, or a. right to vindicate, be does:it most discreetly. as well. as . nest 'effectually, by calmly appealing to the constitutional authority and popular in -1 telligence of the land, and by invoking to his support the sublime force of pub . lie opinion. "Ho is thrice aimed whose cause - is just" - The -laboring Man. of the country, when seeking to better 'hie I condition, surely has a just cause, and as the labor of his hands is his capital, ho is justified in' making the most strenuous exertions to get as much for it as he cap command. lc,. will I say ho is not prudent in combining with othera . to ao: complish his object The plain purpose' of all the privileges conferred by acts of incorporation, is to insure for corporate poivers what money itself does net pos sess." Mimillactiring, mining;' trans.: Portittion and banking aro - now carried on most extensively under corporative privileges granted by the State. Why are Those privileges so coveted and so eagerly sought ? Why are nine bills out 1 of every ten passed by the . Legislature, acts of incorporation, or conferring ear porate • powers? Simply because such. powers protect capital and facilitate its accumulation. ``Under this system of legislation, theta has grown up a; mid titude of State organizations for busi ness more potential in their financial' in fluence and monied power than the Corn monwealtls which gave them existence. I do not make this statement as a:re-. preach to the State which gave existence to these corporations, or as an attack on • such bodies for their manner of doing business. I only show by facts what can be achieved by combination: The capitalist has discov'erechtliat "in Union there is strength." Why then blame labor for having learned to appreciate the same truths? As I understand it, you have combined, not to draw bills of credit, not to take deposits at low rates of interest, and loan them again at. orbitant prices, not to charge five-fold prices for your labor, not to resist and stop the highways for the public con venience, not to speculate on the neces sities of the poor, not to starve men, wo men and children into abject submission, not to monopolize the use of any of the material resources of the State, but simply to secure for your labor wages adequate to Meet the necessary demands anon you for the support and education of pour families. You do not propose to interfere with any of the schemes of the capitalist to enlarge his franchises or in crease his treasures. You simply ask the common rights enjoyed by all men, to secure the fair andjust fruits of your daily toil. Those who would attempt, either by the misinterpretation of the powers they now possess, or by securing additional prerogatives at the favor of legislative bodies, to deprive the labor ing man of this right, am they who' in vite to revolution and force by corrupt ing free government. I do riot assert, my friends, that such has been, or is the case. I only infer possibilities ; but whatever may happen, let it be fully understciod, that under no circumstances, can the law of thisland be violated with impunity. That which I would not per mit ill a corporation seeking to oppress labor, I dare not, as a sworn. officer of the law, encourage in an association, drawn to,gether for mutual benefit, when in pursuit of that object, it seeks to interfere with the personal rights of other citizens. While one set of men are legally entitled to obtain as much for their lobar as they can command, they have no right to coerce other men to ad here to the same rate of wages. The first may refuse to work with the last, but they have not the moral or the legal right to interfere with the labor of those with whom they work as to wages. It. is my duty to, make this point perfectly plain. Whenever a combination of men seeking an object, violently interfere, with other men who are pursuing their industry for such wages as they are fo take, the act is' a conspiracy amounting to crime against law _and order ; and law and order must be sus tained at all liazards. This is stern talk, my friends, but as it is not my' habit to deceive those with whOm I am called to deliberate, I do not propose to delude you by false and specious advice. I speak thus emphatically out that wo may per fectly understand each other, and that you May be guided in the right. I did not come here to•night to dissuade you from doing your duty to yourselves, but to encourage you in this right. You-are too intelligent and have too much manly firmness for any man thus to attempt to lead you ; but—you- can appreciate / the truth when you reflect that your govern ment is ono of law, and obedience to'tho law is essential to the success of the gov ernment. Without a government labor and capital would both be in eternal antagonism, without a hope of ever com ing to terms. But with a government respected and the law obeyed, both these elements aro secured in their rights. I never want to see the day when any por tion of the Afiterican people have be come so wrong in their views, and 'so desperate in their character as to oppose legal and official authority, I have seen enough of this already, arid know what it• Costs to punish those who make such attempts. May God deliver this nation from ever again being forced into civil wars Thanks to the framers of our laws, you have a remedy at • the ballot-box, for whatever wrongs or oppressions you may suffer. The elective franchise was given to meet precisely such cases as yours. You have votes, and must 'cast them for your own benefit, If you want representation, learn whom to trust, and when you know a man to be faithless to your interest, or you are eertaln he is unworthy of your confidence, don't , vote for him. The calm and intelligent . use of the ballot is infinitely more mighty as a revolutionizer in the interests of labor than riot and. bloodshed. We aro only just entering on the period of a true ap preciation of the elective franchise, and You have yet to learn fully what can ho effected by itccuscr; while these who sup 'pose themselVes entrenched - behind'spe-, vial legislation will, so9ner or later, ref:, Hz° that there is no hiding place in the. country in which wrong and injustice can escape the castigation of the Free government would fail to be im partial if the situation were, otherwise. That which makes a man superior: in this country is his of chaqteter, tellig,ence, energy, and intrepfility.. Every man is at liberty to display these as best he can, and as he prospers in life by the•fair test , of these qualities," he demonstrates the blessings'of goal gov ernment as'well :is his own ability to succeed. There should be no conflict between labor and capital, and if wise counsels prevail, they will go hand In baud. •_ I have always looked upon labor and capital:la twin sisters, or perhaps to illustrate my moaning more strongly, as the Siamese twins, connected together with a chord, the greatly of which might be fatal or' greatly injurious to both. Without labor capital would be. comparatively. useless. Without capital labor would fail to be remunerative, and public. , and private enterpriso would cease. • Neither can, therefore; encroach upon or wrong the other with impunity. I am ,a friend of that, protection to American labor wild& has brought 'this country to its highest condition of pros parity? and When the nation extends its protective and , Toiteiing policy, over the productive and manufacturing interests; the capitalist and transporter should not be , permitted to apply, all the. advantages . tOtherriseltes, but should willingly at; `fard — ii falr and proper,iiWro. the sweat pf whose brow and by whose • mind and. muscle. the profitable manipn lotion' has been accomplished.'' • • - : :. : lTheni*itallstS learn : forgot! their imitinets; and generously Share -their profits with loluM -they will justly .'receive the loVe and respect of the peo ple.

And whenever the' representa tives of the people pass bills calculated still further to enlarge these benefits, I am ready, while in authority, to appiove them. ' Or two more'and I have done.

Your whole course has been marked 'with the most fervent attestations of de votion to the institutions of the country; and the firth resolve that the government of the people. for the people, and by the people, shall not perish from the earth. [C,ounu - ofented.) DUTIES AND RESPOAISIBILITIES OF TEACHERS. Who of us fully comprehend the re sponsible duty of the teachei ? • An em inent divine once said, the teacher occu pies a more responsible posision than the minister, for when the, teacher teaches an error, there are none to detect it ; but when the minister teaches an error there arc always those present wile readily de tect the mistaltd,„ and heliecomes the ob ject of censure and reproach. We can easily see that the mind of the child is 'susceptible and will absorb the senti ments given whether they be, but the maturer mind is capable of selecting, and if the evil is not rejected, it will be held amenable. The child cannot judge, and ,when false doctrines are instilled into its mind we- cannot suppose that the child is accountable. Then how careful shout cf the teacher be that he teach nothing but that will induce the youthful mind to seek the path of honor and integrity in every pursuit of life ; this should be, the teacher's highest ambition, to the accom plishment of this he should devote the active energies of body and mind. Then should the teacher enter upon this re sponsible duty, with a careless indiffer ence as to the success and welfare of his pupils, or with -interest and a firm deter mination• to succeed'?, This query can best be answered by a review of our own schooldays ; does not memory love to lin ger around the days spent under the care of those whom wo felt were anxious that we should become wise and good, while she hurriedly passes the days spent un der the care of tyrants with a 'sigh of re lief that they aro gone. Every teacher should remember _that the same acts that prompted him onin the pursuit of knowledge, will clot fail to impel and incite those under his care. It is impossible for pupils to advance rapidly if they entertain a rebellious feeling toward the teacher. There are many who enter upon these duties without a previous thought or prepara tion, or the slightest regard for anything save the compensation they receive. In these schoolrooms we meet the tear dimmed eye, and hear the plaintive sob, because the teacher is impatient, and instead, of a gentle admonition that would reach the tender heart of the pupil; he allows- the rod to accompany angry reproof, ehildren'ti hearts can be won by a smile or kind word, but they can, be as easily, lost by a frown and angry words. A teacher should be governed by certain-rules, -as well as the pupil ; first that he cultivate a deep interest in every pupil, and , exhibit this interest in every recitation, by drawing all the powers of the intellect into action,, leading the •miud of the pupil in sub limest -flights of imagination, in • this way, the dullest lesson will become pleasant_ and_ interesting ; , pupils- --will anticipate the recitation hour, not as they too often do, with sadness and fear, but with ham hearts. Again the teacher 'should treat' all ptuals, alike, whether the goddess of affluence, or the nemesis ,of poverty rules their destiny, whether 'nature has embodied the jewel in a"cornely form or unattractive person. The diamond - is seldom found on the surface, but hurried deep, and ofttimes Where least expected. The teacher should improve every op portunity to bind the hearth of his pu pils, by the ties of affection ; he should study the disposition and talents of each pupil. Every teacher can. find fume good trait in every pupil; and if this trait be cultivated, it will be, a Source of in terest to both teacher and pupil. We frequently'hear teaches complain of the iabere and trialsrdf--their position, but could not these be greatly modified, did the teacher, regard 'his position- as he should? 'There ik iio ,vocation- - that is not attended with some difficulties, and if the teacher's appear greater than some :others, does he not, haVer a greater re ward P Where can yonfind , one, more highly esteemed than he who. has spent yearsiu.the Schoolroom, leetrindlug the youthful .

REVOLUTION IN RAILROADS. • • The Now York Tribune of Friday says : The article on narrow-gaugefail. roads' which appeared in yesterday's Tribune under the above caption, created no little sensation among railroad men. The '" revolution" which it advocated -has-for some-time been the nightmare or the' dream, as-the case might be, of capitalists, engineers and contractors. But the question of the development of the vast regions of country through which 'the rattle of cars and the whistle of engines are as yet unheard, is much' ore -important than the question of profits to corporations or, individuals., _ This de velopment may bo consummated,, long before tho early settlers could have an ticipated, by the newly under Stood rail way system known as the narrow-gauge. On this system lines of railway can be constructed all over, the country_ at. al -most half the cost of the-old' gauge, and none know so well as railroad men how easy it is' tO raise $1,000,0e0 where the raising of $2, COO,OOO would be impossible. But the decreased cost of construction is not the only advantage of the narrow gauge., The decrease in the. cost of operation is proportionate, and affects the, pockets of stockholders and travelers alike. A gentleman writes, asking how the embankment of a narrow-gauge line will be more than comparatively less wide than that of a broad-gauge line. Had he read the article in question care fully, he would have learned that a nar row-gauge lino' admits of much steeper grades, and consequently of less sub stantial embankments. if the embank ment on an incline Or a decline is so many.feet less in heighth because - the width-of the railroad gauge enables the lighter-built engines and rolling stock to travel over it with the same ease as heavier engines and heavier rolling stock would travel over a More evenly graded line, it stands-tmrdason that the base of the embankment will not only be nar rower, but less in height, giving a double gain. The general tendency of the - many criticisms yesterday was that the reason ing," of the article was unanswerable, backed up as it was by statistics from all parts of the world in favor of narrow gauge lines. :Some difference of opinion was expressed as to the -policy of alter ,° the gauge of existing lines, but none as to the necessity of constructing all lines in future on the narrow-gauge system. So great was tilt interest of ' the railroad men in the subject that one prominent character distributed 1;500 copies of yesterday's Tribune through out the country.

Two or three instances has come to our notice during the past ton days of very young lads Prematurely leaving their ",firesides." In ono 'instance, two of them, members of different fan:Mies, got aboard the C. V. R. R. cars and left for Ilarrisburg. Onci of the "stern and Cruel" parents going ill quest of the runaways, 'first caught a glimpse of them fishing in the "raging canawl" at liar risburg, and the boys seeing their ppr 7 suer in clpse proximity took "leg bail" but they wore not sulleientlyffeet-footed and were soon overtaken, and returned to their homes,. It was customary years ago to offer a reward of sic coils and costs for the apprehension of rimawaYs, and we think it would be a good idea to resort to the .seine plan now, as much good might result therefrom.

The game is to be played in 'the College campus, be tween a scrub nine of this borough and a- scrub nine from Dickinson College. Both parties aro sanguine of success,. but we caution the town boys to-be on their guard, and bring out their very best players. I=l LIVERY STABLEB.—OUTyOUIIg " sports" in patronizing the livery stables, should bear in mitid that the Legislature of Pennsylvania has passed a UPI affording protection to the proprietors of livery stables in this county. We insert it for the benefit of a certain class of young then that "sport" on'Sabbaths with a " horse and masheen," and abuse the poor dumb animals under their control. It s reads as follows : "Persons hiring horses or vehicles from livery stable keepers, who shall negligently injure or destroy property committed to their care, shall be deemed guilty of misde meanor, • pithishable by a flue, or an imprisonment of twenty clays in the county prison, or both at the discretion of the court, the parties to be responsi ble and answerable for the value of the property injured or destroyed in a suit for debt." FonErAuan's 6 Ctneui3.—This colossal establishment has been doing an immense business since leaving our town, and the receipts have been exceedingly heavy,• notwithstanding- the 'rainy season with which_ they have had to contend. In York, they received a perfect ovation ; also in Columbia. On last Thursday, they exhibited in Harrisburg, when notwithstanding the rain, about '6,000 persons visited the Circus and Menagerie in the afternoon and evening. From our exchanges-amp the valley" we learn that some persons from the rural districts, in attendance at the show, were victimized pretty badly. In Green 'castle for $B5 ; in Chambersburg, two individuals lost $l6O, and a man in Shippensburg for $6O. Three card monte was the game practiced. We are not aware of the game having been indulged in when the Circus visited our town, but this was owing to the dis agreeable weather, and but few persmis being on the ground during the day. Perhaps if they would have visited Rich Mechauidsburg, some of those nice young men that "play cards in Chestnut Hill Cemetery do Sablidth," might have assisted in fighting the three-card month man. "CHEAPER THAN THE CHEAPEST."- A few years since Mr. J, Wr..,HenderSon, of this place, erected a large lee house on' the banks of the Conodoguinet creek, in the neighborhood of the "Cave."

His agent, Mr. Conrad Earnest, makes his daily round, offering all put citizens an opportuuitz . of procuring ice at ex tremely lOw figures. His terms are as follows : Fifteen pounds for jive cents. Competition.is very' ively among theice merchants the present season, of which our citizens will be highly- delighted to take advantage. For cheap and good ice,- warranted to keep until melted, p4tronize Mr. Earnest. I= Tats LITTLE FOLICEI ARE CO.3IING.

Lent, residing On Liberty alloy, froth one of the most formidable diseases,‘ If the_nervous system—lock jaw-. - .About 'lwo - weeks since, the weather being very pleasant, the little girl, like many other little folks, was running barefooted. While so do ing she run a splinter in the solo of her left foot. It pained her soino at first, but nothing more was said about it, until six or seven days subsequently, when she again com plained of her foot paining her very much. . . Dr. Stewart was called in, but from the Persistent, intense and painful con tractions to which she was subjected, it soon, became apparent that lock jaw would ultimately take place. , For 48 hours provious to her death the pen would fail to portray the terrible agony iyhich she was compelled to endure. Finally ou Tuesday, the second instant, death put an eud•to her sufferings. I=l ASSAULT AND BATTERY. OR last Thursday evening, Meer Charles Sanno arrested Joseph Arnold and Daniel Hen ry for assault and battery, on oath of B• Maglaughlin, of Doubling Gap. They wore - ainunitted for trialby Squire Sham berger. STILL ANOTHER.—George L. Gouch or, the celebrated bill poster and fence decorator has come to grief. Hearing of his arrest, we were •slow to belieVe it, thinking it was some idle rumor, but finally were compelled, though very re luctantly to believe the report. Accord ingly- we determined to interview (ac cording to the New York Herald,) Gou chay and learn whence these give charges. Upon arriving at t the " Brown Stone," theepolite turnkey„ r ndmitted us within . the prison walls. there being no pris onefs in the cells of the lower corridor, wo "ascended on high;" in quest of the prisoner We'passed around the entire corridor• but could gain no sight of his . noble form, and were preparing to make -a hasty flight, - when a' gentlemaff, that had accompanied us, spied him in a distant corner of_cell No. 26, George having hid himself when we passed by his cell. It seems that Gou-chay bad been arguing the morality of the " Local Option bill" and become sadly delnoral ized. While in this conditiOn he asserts that some boys were throwing stones at him and. otherwise maltreating him, 'N ' vhen he tripped a little fellow over. • • He was immediately arrested by Officer Oiler, and though making considorable resistance, was finally: incarcerated 'in Fort Foreman. Little did we suppose George when yOu made your last visit, that so very soon would you be an inmate of that institution, with the prospects of 'remaining there until the end of the "dog days." In this connection, We. would say, that we found George minus a ,bed, having nothing to lay on, but a chance soft spot on the hard floor,- and no covering, excepting a single blanket. Other prisoners, we arc told, are also compelled to forego the luxury of a bed. A SHAM' PATENT RIGHT SWINDLE.— The Pittsburg Real Estate Register thus exposes ono of the sharpest patent right swindles of the day, against which we caution our readers.

For a day two it seemed 2.8 if there would be no "let up," and that we wore being subjected to a second deluge. All things have an end :sometime or other, and the rain was no ex ception to the rule, as it finallY.cleared off on Saturday night. Since that time the temperature has been very cool, no doubt, owing to 'the hail storm which' visited Illinois the other day: The -Conocloguinet-was bank full, but no serious damage was done ; many cel lars-in the lower Mid of town have been inundated since the recent rains. Our farmers aro unanimous in assert ing that no serious damage - was sus tained by the growing crops. CHICKEN CLEPTOMANIACS. —The follow ing chapter on chicken thefts„ we pub. lish for the benefit pf our many readers, in town and country, that they may be 'on their guard, against the stealing, pro pensities of this class of chicken-hearted thieves. During - the past week, the premises of Mrs. Askew, a widow lady, residing on Eat Louther street, were intruded upon, and about 40 chickens stolen. No clue to the Perpetrators of this bold theft has yet been discovered. _ The chicken. yard of Mr. Corbett, living in Middlesex township, about two miles from Carlisle, was entered a few 'nights since, and seven " hatching"liens "confiscated•"' Suspicion attaches to a yOung . man of this piece, having " no visible means of support." . Some individual desirous of enjoying a Sunday dinner on " chuck," resolved to do so at the expense of Squire Dehuff, residing on North East street. To this end, his "liennery" was entered Vn Saturday night last, and, a fine young Brahma lien stolen. , . On Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings last, some miscreant, taking advantage of the damp weather, stole upwards of SO chickens from Mr. Harry Givler, residing in this borough. No trace of tbelhieves has been discovered. ON Sunday night, about 12 o'clock, the house of Mrs. Esclibnch, on North East street, was entered twice by bur glars, but the parties wore frightened away each time. They finally succeeded in capturing abaut 15 chickens. Offi cer Sanno was made acquainted-with the foul trausfiction in dice 'time, and im mediately proceeded .to ferret out, the guilty parties. Finally getting on their feathery tracks, (feathers being scattered from the yard from which they were stol en) they were traced to the residence of ono of the parties named Heed, on East South street, and the chickens re covered. There were two instividuals en gaged in this little transaction. Ed wards, managed to escape, Wit was final ly captured on the Lisburn road, about 'fite miles from town. Both parties were taka before Squire Holcomb; when, by orderof the Justice of the Peace, they aro now rusticating within the walls of .Fort Foreman. 'We iVould caution our citizens to be on the look out for this class of individuals, for the community appears to be overrun with clicker* thieves. • We challenge any of our country exchanges to report as ninny cases of " weakness for chuck," in a single issue. RP:PORTERS SLIORTLY XED.—News paper r9orters, like all other human be ings, are iable to mistakes. Below we give the following news items contained in two of the leading Philadelphia jour nals, referring to the movements of the President during the past week. The Philadelphia Press, of Friday last, "says : "President Grant designs leaving Washington on Saturday, for Philadel phia, 'to return on Monday with Mrs. Grant, who is now on a visit to that city." The correspondent of the Press that forwarded the above highly interesting information must have been well In formed regarding the President's move ments. From the Inquirer of last Monday, un der the head of Germantown items, we clip the following paragraph : "VISIT 01r . PRESIDENT GRANT.—On Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Grant and her son Jesse • arrived in this city from Washington. Since 'that time she halt been the guest of Jay Cooke, esq. On Friday a telegram_ was received from the President, stating that he would leave Washington in the early morning train, and reach Philadelphia Saturday even ing. He arrived in due season,•and, carriage being in waiting; he was driven 'rapidly actay': In company with Mr. Cooke, he pro ceeded to join Mrs. Glant, at Chelton Hills. Here the President and his wife and child , remained' yesterday. In the morning they attended divine service, and in the afternoon took a drive through the surrounding country. It ls expected that the President will visit G. Dawson Coleman, of Lebanon county, and re turn to Washington on'Tuenday.." This is news to the, people of this Place, decidedly, and a person is almost compelled to 'exolaim "Do my eyes de ceive me." We JWonder if the reporter that penned the above articio attended the same house of Worship that the President and hie lady did on Sabbath last P Also, whether " the drive through the - surrounding country" ,was enjoyed by the above-named, parties.' We won der rho imparted the above 'important information to the reporter in quasthm, aiwe think they must haie been draiving somewhat upon his credulity. Now for. mfr. version of this matter. On ThurSday last, Mrs. Grant, *Comps , Aiied - by her son. visited Pine drove, at the terminus of the South Monntatii Pailread. On Saturday afternoon She returned, and, passed through this 'Place to Newville, on the'Mail Train, to remain with - her:sister, Mm, Dr.. Sharp, of that burg, over the Salibeth.'
