8atcdat Morning, : Feb. IS, 1871.
Geeat apprehensions are felt throughout
the couutry for the safety of steamship Ten
nessee, which sailed from New York on the
ICth of last month with the San DomiDf0
Commissioners on board. The trip is usual
ly tnado in eiht days, but it has now been
thirty-one days since she sailed, and nothing
definite has yet been heard from her. In
cludiiig the coromisFsioners, their clerks and
other officials, as well as the officers and
crew, the Tennessee had three hundred souls
oa board, ller loss would be a great nation
al calamity.
The Bill restoring the "Spring Elec
tions" has passed the State Senate, and it is
to be hoped that tbe House will concur.
With the signature of the Governor it be
comes a law, and thus is restored to the
voters of Pennsylvania an aucient and time
honored right of which they never should
have been deprived, as they were through
the low and contemptible political practices
of the most corrupt one bors-e ward politi
cians of both political parties ia the city of
Philadelphia. The people demand the pas
sage of this law and will wreak their ven
geance on any faithless representative who
refuses to sustain it.
las result of the recent election through
out France has been most mrprisins, and is
not what was expected. It is estimated to
have resulted in at least a two-thirds vote in
favor of a rbecarchy, i.otcne third of the
members elected to the Constituent Assem
bly being in favor of a republic. The friends
of the late Emparor succeeded in electing
only a few members. The contest for the
choice of a king will be between the adhe
rents of the Bourbons and the tupportera of
the Orleanists, with the chances greatly in
favor of the latter. It is conclusively settled
by this election, that the French people are
ttrongly opposed to a republican form of
government, just as Spain declared herself
to be only a few months ago. The results
of the future can alune determine the wis
dom of their choice.
Tuc Ebeneburg Iniquity Bill has parsed the
Senate, and now only await the signature of
the Governor to become a law.
The above characteristic and compliment
ary notice of that mysterious, but in the
editor's heated imagination, all powerful and
active "Ebeusburg Iling." is taken from the
last Johnstow n Tribune It refars of course
to a bill which has passed both branches of
the Legislature, couferiinj; increat-td juris
diction on the District Court of Cambria
County. We deny ruoet emphatically the
truth of the statement. The bill reft-rred to
never originated in Ebensburg. No person
here had anything to do with its prepara
tion. It was a Johnstown measure and
was written aud prepared in that place.
We do not know, nor do we care, who are
entitled to the credit of originating the bill,
but we do know that the provisions of Mr.
Hose's law are identically or substantially
the same as those that were demanded by
the leading members of the Jchnctown Bar
when the District Court Bill was pasted two
years ago. It is an old adage, that "it is a
diity bird that will befoul i(s on nest.
Tils Supreme Court of this State, now
holding its session at Philadelphia, rendered
adeeision last week in reference to the con
stitutionality of the law, erecting the Diss
trict Court of Cambria county at Johnstown.
The decision is adverse to tho legal right of
Jude Taylor, as the President Judge of
this district, as also the same right by the
two Associate Judges, Easly and Murray,
and of J. K. Ilite, Eq., FrothonoUry of
said Court, to exercise the duties of their re
spective flljial positions, as oflijers of said
District Giurt. This decision was autieip"
ted, after the same Court some time ago had
disposed of precisely the same question in
relation to the Recorder's C urt of Scranton
in Luzerne county. We have not yet been
able to get a copy in full of the opinion of
the Court, but when we do so, will publish
it for the information of our readers. Neith
er can we say at this writing (Wednesday)
what effect tho decision of the Court may
have on Mr. Rose's supplemcnt.-.ry bill la
relation to the same Court, w hich we pub
lished two weeks ago, and which is now in
tho hands of Governor Geary for his appro
val or rejection. Before our paper goes to
press we hope to be able to announce tho
conclusion at which ho Las arrived.
Tub AlleohakiaN of this week expresses
the opinion that Cambria county, under the
Apportionment bill to be ras-sed by the
present Legislature, will likely lose her sep
arate representation in the House, which she
has enjyed siuce 1857. Tho reason as
signed is, that the ratio of Uxables required
to entitle a county to a separate member
will be about 8,500, and Cambiia has only
7,653. We do not share in the apprehen
ion of the Alleghanian. No apportionment
bill was ever yet framed in this State, and
none ever can be, and at the same time ab
solutely preserve the ratio. It ia simply not
in the nature of things. Some counties with
an excess must be content to lute it and be
entitled to only one member, while others
having a deficiency are euiitled to bo placed
on political eqnaiity with the former. No
fair and honest Apportionment bill onght
ever to disfranchise the voters of one county
by connecting them with a county of oppo
site politics and which gives a larger major
ity. This feature in the present Appropria
tionment, which was passed in 1864, is
what renders it so unjust and infamous.
W will have a great tleal more to eay on
this important subject when the bill is re
ported from the committee. We feel quite
coo fid en t that Cambria will not lose her
frtent separate rep reipcqtaticu. 1
Judge Tajlor aud the Trllmue.
Judge Taylor has been so unfortunate
as to inccr the enmity of the editor of the
Johnstown Tribune. In an article of last
week's Uaue of that paper, the well known
character of Judge Taylor for judicial integ
rity was violently aseailed and several heavy
accusations preferred against him. We only
hope that the Judge will, be able to survive
the onslaught. It seems that the editor has
heard a report that Judge Taylor requested
R. Bruce Petriken, a Senator from the Hunt
ingdon district, as a personal favor, to aid in
passing through the Senate the new bill in
relation to the District Court of Johnstown,
and that Petriken did so. Was there any
thing either morally or judicially wjong or
censurable in this? If Judge Taylar be
lieved that the provisions of the bill were
wise, and that they met the emergency
which has arisen in reference to that Court,
had he not a perfect right to say so to Mr.
Petriken, and ak him to givo it hissupport ?
This appears to have been the head and
front of Judge Taylor's offtnding. aud for
this natural and harmless conduct on his part
he has been fiercely assailed by the editor of
the Tribune, without cause or leason. Any
person who is at all conversant with Judge
Taylor's well known and high opinion of
Mr. Murrell and his well known devotion to
his political advancement, will laugh at the
idle intimation, that he (Judge Taylor)
aided or in the most remote way contributed
to the defeat of Mr. Morrell at the eltctiou
for Cv'Ugress ia Huntingdon couuty laat October.

says the ongiueer. "if he could jump of the

CnoRPENMXG. The little game of Chor
peuning is just now attracting considerable
attention, and iu common with many we
had supposed that he was, until lately, quite
unknown to fame, though desperately intent
upon scraping an extensive acquaintance
with fortune. It turns out that Mr. Chor
peuning is addicted to iittle arames, and that
the present Congress is not alone in its par
tiality for that centleman. The Congress
which sat in 1857 passed an act f t the re
lief of George Chorpenning. jr., which act
was approved on the third of March of that
year by Franklin Pierce. This act required
the pcfct matter genera! to adjust and settle
the claim of Ciiorpenuing ''for damages on
account cf tho annulment or suspension of
Woodward & Ciiorpenning's contract for
carrying tho mail from Sacramento to Salt
Lake." Also to allow and to pay to Cher
penning $3,000 per annum from the 1st day
of July, 1853, down to the termination of
his coutract, such payment to be made in
lieu of contract piy. The same act author
ized the paymeut of full contract pay to
Chorpeuning from March 15th. 1853. to the
1st day of July next following. Thus, it
will be seen. Mr. Chorpenning has been
pretty liberally dealt with under all admin
titrations, and ought to be a highly conser
vative citiz-'n. The Day.

From the Pittsburgh Leader, Feb. 13th.
Starved to Heath.
A Sad Case in Franksiown A Young Mar
ried Man of Twenty two Dies from Actual
Starvation and Exposure He Lays in a
Damp Cellar Without any Covering but an
Old Shawl He has but Little fool for
Days Too Proud to Tell His Circum
stances The Body Taken Away by His
JHolher His Wife said to be Heiress to a
Considerable Sum of Money.
This morning cur attention was called to
a sad case, which woald scarcely be thought
possible to occur in a civilized community
like this, but which, nevertheless, seemi to
be to true. It is the death of a young man
of but twenty-two years of age. named Wil
liam Young, under circumstances which go
to show that death was caused actually by
starvation aud exposure. The young man
died early on Friday morning at Franks
town, on the Couuellsville Railroad, in the
Tweuty-third Ward.
Thie morning a Leader reporter proceeded
to Frankstown and their obtained from the
people residing in the neighborhood, the
information contained below iu relation to
this sad case :
About four months ago, Young, who lived
in Hollidaysburg, came to this city, accom
panied by his wife, a young woman of about
the same age as himself, both of whom
were in rather poor circumstances. He pro
cured employment at the Pittsburgh Bolt
Company's Works at Frankstown, as helper
toapudler the man for whom he was work
ing being John Williams. It appears it has
betu the rule of the Bolt Company to pay
their hands but once a month. About four
weeks since tho hands demanded payment
semi-monthly, and this being refused they
"struck." Young was thrown our cf mi
pl3 ment, but afterwards was employed as
helper to a man named lleckley, one of the
new hands, Williams, who hires his helper,
and not receiving his money, was unable to
pay Young, and the latter was left in very
destitute circumstances.
Young and his wife occupied the basement
(but one room) of a little one story shanty
on the Fraukstown road, near the works,
occupied by one J. Popp, a shoemaker, who
rented them the cellar. Lift Saturday
a week Young was taken ill.
He was so poor that he was unable to buy
a bed, aud he and his wife had to sleep on
au old straw tkk, laid on the floor. This
basement was entirely under ground, and
was very damp and cold. Young and his
wife had no bed clothes, and the neighbors
informed our reporter that they slept every
night with their personal clolning ou, and
up till the night of Young's death, they had
no covering, but au old ehawrl.
There was a fire-place in the room, but at
times the fire got very low, and rendered
very little beat. Young used to come home
from his work sweating, and then lay down
iu the cold basement.
Then iu the way of necessaries cf life they
were almost entirely destitute. In fact, Mr..
Young told a neighbor that her husband had
oftsn gone to his work with but a crust of
bread to eat before starting, and that often
they were without anything for a whole day.
It is said that Young and his wife were of a
j sort of proud disposition, and never allowed
the neighbors, if possible, to know their real
circumstances. It is alleged that during
Young's sickness, his wife sent to a grocery
for something to eat. She got the groceries,
but Leiug unable to pay fjr them the grocer
seized cu the goods and took them back. It
is said that this firae person also took back
somo clothing from Mrs. Young which she
had got at his establishment, but for which
t-he was unable to pay at the time. We
give these statements merely as the rumors
current.
Young Iy in the basement for six days,
every day growing worse. The Ltighbure,
it Seems, were not acquainted of the ext;eme
poverty that existed in that basement, and
there William Young, who had just reached
his maturity, was allowed to give up his
young life, from want 6imply cf proper
nourishment and covering from the cold.
Young died on Friday morning at two
o'clock, and it was eight hours afterward
befoie any one in the neighborhood was ac
quained with the fact. Mrs. Young when
questioned afterwards, said she believed that
her husbaud died Irom starvation and expo
sure. Yet these two persons, knowing what
was to come, were both too proud to ask as
sistance from the neighbors. .
When it became known that Young was
dead, the neighbors telegraphed the fact to
his mother, living in Hollidaysburg. The
mother and brother of the deceased arrived
on Saturday, had tho body coffined, and
then accompanied by tho wife, started with
tho body to Hollidaysburg. The mother
etated when she left that it was her inten
tion to have a 2WS mortem examination!
upon the body upou their arrival at Holli
daysbur. and learn if her son actually died
from starvation aud exposure. The mother
appears to be in rather good circumstances.
The wife of the unfortunate young man
was formerly a resident of Allegheny City
and her maiden name was Kate Ann Clark
She has an uncle now living iu Allegheny
She told her neighbors in Frankstown some
time since that the had $10,000 coming to
her from an estate which she soon expected
to get. She has been married to Young
about fifteen months, and it is said by the
neighbors that they did not. live very hap
pily together of late, and that they frequent
ly had little quarrels.
Last New Years, the husband, after get
ting his pay, started on a visit to his mother
at Hollidaysburg. without telling hi3 wife.
The latter, thinking he had left her, sued
him for desertion. The matter was explain,
ed, ami they went to together again to live.
It is believed, however, that she rendered all
the assistance she could to her husband du
ring his illness, except that her proud dispo
sition would not allow her to acquaint the
neighbors of their sad case.
Taking it ail in all, this is one rf the sad
dest cases that we have been called upon yet
to record. A man dyiag in a Christian
community from starvation and exposure is
indeed astcuuding. It is very singular that
the coroner was not notified of tho matter,
and an investigation had into the matter.

RUMOR OF TliK GilEATJCST CONSOLIDATION
IsCilKMiC YKT.
A despatch from Steubenville, Ohio, to
the Cincinnati Commercial iu regard to the
annual meeting of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati
aud St. Louis Railway, says :
Gov. Deuuisou, Hubert Sherrard, jr., and
Thomas Meats, are supplanted by Scott, of
the Pennsylvania Central, M'Cullough, of
the Fort Wayne and Chicago railroads, and
Thaw, of the Union Line monopoly. It is
rumored here that this is the prelude to one
cf the greatest railroad movements of the
present time, and that neither of tho Jewotts
will have any participancy in it. Hugh J.
Jewett, will not serve on tho new board,
and Judge Jewett, now President, will de
cline re-election, in view of the movement,
which ho will be powerless to prevent.
Under recent Pennsylvania legislation,
Scott, M'Cullough and five or Bix others,
have formed a corporation known, or to be
known, as the Pennsylvania Railroad Bu
reau, which is to control tho leased roads of
the Pennsylvania Central wet of Pittsburgh,
being the Fort Wayne and Chicago and its
leased roads, and the Pan Handle, with its
loases. The stock of the corporation is nom
inally $12,000,000, $3,000,000 of which is
to be paid the Pennsylvania Central for its
interest in theae leases, all of which have
from ninety-five to uiuety-eight years to run,
and which are to be turned over to this cor
poration aud its successors.
It is said the Philadelphia meeting, where
the execution of this scheme was determined,
was quite stormy, and that Judge Jewett
warmiy protested agaiust an injustice which
would forever destroy all hope of dividends
to the stockholders of the old Steubenville
and Iudiana Railroad, and the recent show
ing of earnings warrants the opinion that
fair management with the increasing busi
ness of the road justified hopes of stock divi
dends at no very remote period. The Penn
sylvanians who now control the road, fully
understanding this, and taking advantage of
the terms of a lease, which is tully satisfied
by tbe payment of the interest on the road
bonds, have apparently determined that no
mora through business shall pass over this
road than wiil enable the lessees to fill the
bond, and the balance of the through traffic
is to be thrown over to the Fort Wayne to
swell the surplus which will remain to the
corporators after they pay their annual ren
tal of that road. It is further said, here,
to-day, that Scott is to be President of tbe
great monopoly, and M'Cullough general
