Crime
The weekly regialer of crime ia a
fearful one, and it seems to us to be
on the increase. There is scarce day a
panes over but what it baa ita mur
ders, while crime of every other
species ia without end. Truly, the
land seems to be filled with violence ;
and are we not bidding fair to rival
the periods of violence recorded in the
Old Testament, when the Almighty
swept the earth with a deluge and
destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah with
fire and brimstone, on account of
the iniquities of men ? The land ia as
full of violence and wickedness a* it
ia of churches and religious societies.
What does this all mean, aud whith
er aro we drifting? It is a subject
that is alarming to comtemplate.
While the Gospel is preached and
•ought to be spread by good men and
societies with untiring seal, it would
almost seem as though Satan and his
work were gaining ground, and that
his cunning snd arts were more allu
ring to men, to lead them to their own
destruction, than are the wholesome
and life-giving truths and warnings
from the walls of Zion.
Money—or rather the love of it—
is the great root of all this evil.
Most of the horrible murders com
mitted, are for money. Intemper
ance is another prolific source of thia
species of crime, and its victims may
be fall up in number* to those who
are sentito eternity for money. One rea
son why there is no abatement in these
high crimes, may be, because courts
and juries are too lenient with the
guilty ones, and because the appeals
for mercy made by wealthy and influ
ential relatives of these modern Cains
are given too much ear by our exe
cutives,clothed with the pardoning
power, while too, in some instance*,
money may be used to influence ju
ries and judges and governors. Then
can it b a marvel that so much wick
edness abounds where immunity can
bo purchased ?
But, as differing from the crime*
committed from motives as given
above, our attention is arrested by a
late instance in which a horrible mur
der was committed, not for money,
not in a fit of intoxication, or to grati
fy any ainful spirit of revenge, but
simply from a desire to do "something
bad." Horrible aa such a nature
may seem, yet it is true, and we do
not now recollect of |any similar
case. We give the case here as we
find it in one of our New York ex
changes:
Joseph Waltz the young man who
was arrested on . spicion of murder
ing Harmon HL.cner, the Albany
scissors-grinder, at Athens on May 1.1
made a full confession of the crime
a few days ago to Constable Ernst of
Catskill, and directed where the body
and money could be found. The
body was found buried in the orchard
near the house, and the money,
amounting to 162, in the barn. In
his confession be states that the deed
was done about 10 p. m. on J/iay 1, or
a little later. He went to the room
occupied by Hulcber, whom be found
asleep, and struck him three times
with the hatchet; the first time with
the blunt part, and twice with the
sharp side. He only groaned and all
was over. Waltz then took the body
to theztone wall, where the traces of
blood were found, and covered it op.
There be left it until the next night,
when he took it down into]the orchard
and buried it. The officers having
learned all they could, took Walts
out at his own suggestion to the place
where the body was buried in the
orchard. A few inches below the sur
face it was found, wrapped in a blank
et. The head was horribly mangled.
Waltz also confesses to having barn
ed three school-houses iu the town,
and to having buried the books,
which have been found at the place
he designated. When asked why he
committed the murder, he replied,
"I done it for mischief and not for
gain; the bad spirit was in me, and I
wanted to do something bad."
That any one should have commit
ted so horrible a murder, from no oth
er motive but to gratify the thirst
ings of a fiendish spirit like the ons
here shown is what was scarce to be
looked for from Satan himself, saying
nothing of a human being.
JUSTLY INDIGNANT.
The St. Louis Republican is not at
all pleased with the actions or our dis
reputable Senator, Simon Camreon,
trno has disregarded the old command,
"Thou sbalt not set up auy brazen
image," in having his likeness painted
on one of the panels in the room of the
Senate's Committee u Foreign
Relations,"where it must be a by-word
and a reproach so long as it is allowed
to remain in the veiw of the illustrious
living, and in company with the illus
trious dead." It concludes with the fol
lowing paragraph:
Cameron's picture, which is not a
portrait, but an ideal picture of emi
nence, is placed in the panel over the
bead of the table. Sumner's face is
assigned at the foot, Clay's to the right,
and Allen's to the left. So Cameron
looks from bis post of honor among the
eminent men who bad honorably occu
pied his place before him and is satis
fied that he is the greatest of them all
—for, behold the proof in the hand
writing on the walls! If there ever
was such a brazen image of impudeuce
in the world before, we fail to recall its
features or its name.
We wonder whether Gen. Grant
did not take the "blessing" recently
given him—by a Philadelphia tem
perance club,
With a wink of the eye, #
And a little old rye ?
Gov. Dix has vetoed the loeal
option act recently passed by the
Itew York Legislature.
Geu. Grant now gel a $50,000 per
year, and half hia time he ia pleasure
••eking around the country. Thia re
mind* us of a Dutchman who was
shown a picture of the Washington
monument, and asked to subscribe
towards its completion. "No" said
the Dutchman, "I gifa no one cent. 1
goes no use for to build a house mit
such big schimhly." We don't ace
ace any use having a President like
Grant with such a big salary.
Bamberg in South Carolina, has a
colored post-master who cannot read.
When the Bamberger! conic to the
post-office for their uews, the sable
appointee under Grant's civil service
rules, directs them to the pile to select
for themselves what belongs to them
Let his salary be doubled by all
means.

The democratic press all over the
state, aud even outside, have articles
commendatory of thecourae, lestwiuter
of our representative, John H. Orvis,
and we notice that the honester por
tion of the republican press, speak
admiringly of the great services he
rendered the people ; for instance, the
editor of the Williamsport AVyisfsr,
who was in our couuty a few days
ago, says the following in hi* paper :
John H. Orvis, Esq.. who represent
ed this county in the legislature with
markcl ability, and great credit to.his
constituents is at home, and over
whelmed with legal business, which
he postponed duriug the sessions of
the Legislature, in order that he
might serve the true iuteresU of the
peoule more successfully in the ca
pacity of a law maker. Whilst,
politically, the Register may have
nothing to say, for cr agaiust Mr.
Orvis, it is extremely doubtful wheth
er a better, more competent and hon
orable representative man can be
found anywhere withiu the confines of
Centra county, or perhaps this Com
monwealth.
The following item from the Pitts
burg Dispatch, suits Centre county as
well as Allegheny or Philadelphia—
we think there is plenty of room in
our county for well qualified and suc
cessful teachers. To such liberal
salaries should be paid, but there are
some teachers who are dear at any
price. Says the above paper :
A movement is on foot in Phila
delphia for securing an increase of
teachers' salaries, but very naturally
before endorsing it the people are in
quiring into the qualifications possess
ed by those who are now engaged pro
pagating the young idea. The objec
tion urged in this quarter from time
to time that teachers are not properly
trained is repeated iu Philadelphia.
Gradually the public will be awaken
ed to an intelligent understand of
his matter, and tothe propriety of tak
ing measures lor reform.
The latest from the Modoc country

The following is the decision of
Chief Justice Thompson, of this Stale,
in a recent case respecting gambling :j
"Anything which induces men to risk
their money and proj*rty without
any hope of return hut to get for noth
ing anv given amount from another,
is gambling, aud demoralising to the
community, no matter bv what name
it may be called It is the same
whether the promise be to pay on the
color of a can! or the flcelue** >1 a;
horse, and the same numerals indicate
how much is loat or won iu either ease
and the losing party has received just
aa much mouey in one case as the
other parted with, vi* noth
ing at all. The lucky winner is of,
course the gaiuer, hud he will con
tinue so 'until tickle fortune, in due
time, makes hitu feel the woes he has
inflicted on others. All gambling is j
immoral. I apprehend that the lossrs
incident to the practice disclosed with
in the past five years have contribu
ted more to the failures aud erabex i
dements by public officers, clerks,
agents and others, acting in fiduciary
relation, public and private, than any
other known, or perhaps all other
kuown,or perhaps all other causes ;|
and the worst of it is a vast amount
of misery and suffering by persons
eutirely guiltless of any participation
iu the cause of it."
The Hon. F. B. Gowen, delegate at
large to the Constitutional Conven
tion, retiree from it ou account of cu
grossing occupations and delicate
health, which would interfere with his
continued attendance. The withdraw*
at of a man of his signal ability would
be a great lose to any deliberate body.
The vacancy is to be filled bv the
Democratic delegates at large.
His SUCCESSOR. —Hon Samuel Cal
vin, of Holidaysburg. has bceu cho
sen a member of the Constitutional
Convention to fill the vacancy caused
by the Jeath of Mr. McAllister. We
have known Mr. Calvin for over fif
teen vears, and he is the most decided
old fogy in the State. And. so far as
filling the place of Mr. McAllister is
concerned, his selection is a burlesque
upon the Convention and the dead
patriot.
Au Important Struggle.
A great struggle is said to be pre
vailing in Shainokin, Pennsylvania,
for the posseasiou of over 10,000 acres
of land in the anthracite coal regious,
valued at 120,000,000. One party
lias burned 11 houses which the other
side erected, and retaliation is now
threatened. O. H. Wheeler, of New
York, represents one side, aud the
Keadiug Railroad the other.
The negro vote of the South was the
bolt and bar of the Republican party
to keep the white Democratic majority
of the nation from controlling its gov
ernment. How is the black ally of
ths Northern Republican citizen pros
pering and how is he fitting himself for
his civic duties. Not one nigger out
of a thousand la all Alabama has yet
paid a cent of tax. The most easy
form of homestead was offered them in
the Government public lauds. The
nigger squats here or there and don't
comply with the reqirements of the
law, and don't get his land or found his
home. But the Southern nigger is a
competent judge of Republican states
manship. Trust him to vote the Pro
tectionist ticket. His mind dilates nat
urally and easily to the grasping of
that beueficent polity.

Shamokin, Pa., May 22.—During
the ceremonies of laying the corner
stone of the new Catholic church
this afternoon a portion of the tem
porary flooring which had been erect-;
ed for the accommodation of the vast
multitude assembled gave way aud
precipitated into the basement be
neath a large number of persons. It
is impossible at this time to give the
names and number of the injured,
but it is supposed thatsix are seriously

Bishop Wood, of Philadelphia, and
Bishop O'Hara, of Serautoo, who
were conducting the ceremonies at
the time of the accident, assisted by
about twenty clergymcu, were among
those who went down with the falling
floor, but luckily escaped any serious
injury.
Some of the iojured are prettr bad

I j reive the devastation or realise the force

| A gentleman near the tornado, six miles
north of where it passed, report* that M '
was baloon shaped, with the small end 1
to tbe ground, and moved at the rate of i
, twenty mile* an hour. It commenced its
' tearful work neer Koou, where it demol-Jl
j islied several residence*. We next hear i
jof it about six miles northaast, where it
"jdestroyed two or three houses, and as it'
e passed on to the northeast it scattered toj
' the four winds the fine residences and!
* barn* of Alex. Gibson, J. Uabcock and l

a inches in diameter. Some were brought
( to this city, and four hour* after they
i| were picked up they were still as large a
hens' eggs. The roaring of the tornado
! was fearful, and could have been heard
easily leu miles off. At this place, six
t miles away, it was perfectly appalling,
surpassing anything weaver heard, ex
' eupt the roar of a tern flic battle.
*| A telegram from Kellogg that evening
says that five persons were killed about

K j from only a few point* on the line of the

c the amount of damage done, but it must'
be many thousand dollars.
Many more live* were lost, probably. |
e than those reported, and no estimate can'
. v be made ef (ho stock killed. Nothing
)' heretofore so terrible and violent has ever
r "; befallen the country, and we can only
" contemplate iu devastation with awe and

ir. A man named Baker, who wa* driving

At one e,slock this afternoon One-eyed s

' pletely blown. He made obeisance and at t
once lot hit tongue loose, reporting that (
the Indians ware close at band and ready ;
to anler the camp under escort. All they j
asked was Fairchild to <>ama out and meet 1
them. No soldiers naod come. The pre*- *
ence.'of Fairchild would bo considered at
guarantee of good faith. "Where is Ar- b
lenn?" asked General Davit. "Tied up," 0
said Dixie ; "long ride and no water." h
The absence of Artena gave rise to sutpi- •
cions of foul play which were only din- b
polled by her tuddon advent. She, too, ]
reined her foaming rayute before General si
Davis and raid that tha Indians wore hov- c
ering about the hills near here yearning to

THE VOL A HIS
AN ACCOL'NTOFCAPTAIN HALL'S
DEATH. ALLEGATIONSOP FOUL
PLAY. A STRANGE STORY.
The Herald hat a letter from 8t John's
Irom a correspondent who hasfiaterviewed
sum* of the men whe wereupoo the Polari*.
The following is the narrative of one of
: the Esquimaux :
Joe says (partly in answer to my inqui
ries and partly speaking on hi* own ac
count, without Ibeing interrogated at all):
Very fond of Captain Hall. We was
crushed in ice. Didn't like Buddir.glen ;
always talking behind back ; asking story
alt time. Ships stern broken. Blow
hard w hen drove from ship. Couldn't get
aboard. Some men here in (St. John's)
and tome in ship ued to quarrel. 1 went
with Captain Hall propose te go to
north. After Hell died Buddiwgton wouldnl
go. I se* with two eye and two ear. 1
tell Buddington 1 coma to go North. He
wouldn't Jiet me go. Buddigtoa end I
quarreled good deal about It. I went
with Hall on last sled and Hans and Ches
ter (the male). We went fifty milt* north
f ship on ice and land. Pound musk ox
track* on land. Sun nearly gone when
•-erne back to ship. Hall told me when
tick
Soinbodv Gave Him Something Bad.
HP M lick two week*. Buddiiftoa did
nutukinn ofkin. I think it not right
mode roe foel b*d. Sick tnaa good nan
too. Throat |welled something ; couldn't
drink. Said he burn intida. I topped
up with him every night with another nan
heikcp 1 wake, i wake ha deep. Hall
in cabin. I talked to Uall much.
He no talk U> other* much a* me. I
didn't ♦# Ilall in fin I night after be came
aboard fntui *led. Came aboard with him
in afternoon. He looked well, happy and
spoke nice. The four of ui. Hall, Cheater,
Han* and Joe, had coffcewben came aboard
I had mine in ray own room, underneath
cabin. Hall in cabin, and t two ether* in
galley. At tea o'clock that night my wife
told me Hall veiy ick vomiting eat
something. >'ett morning I go *ee him
and say, "What; matter?" He all alone in
cabin. He ay "You pretty well, Jee?"
I *ay "Yet." He ay, "You drink bad cof
fee lail night*" 1 ay "no." I a*k him,
"Did be drink bad coffee ' He *ay, "Some
thing bad in coffee 1 drink la*t night mak
ing me tick and itomach bad. " Sam#
morning be get very tick, remitting. Af
ter five day* he feel better ; wake up and
*ay he want to ee my little girl, and *ay
to her think be would leave her, but dido't
like. After he get better be get four doc
tor book* to try and tee what make him
tick. Ho ttudy hard, and tay to ma, "That
name U rnakin' me tick." (Joe explained
that he (Captain Hall) here pointed to a
name in one of the book*, which be read
out] It wa* tomothing about poiton, I
think. After Hall die everybody watch
ing one another ; me no underttand what
they mean ; all afraid tomebody put down
poiton in water, bread or tometbing ; it
looked like it be wat poitoned to ma all
tame. Buddington didn tlikoto goto cab
in ; he wat quarreling all tima-
Hans Christian'* Statement
I upon thli subject, though much briefer, it
to the tame effect. He it more| significant
in hi* action than Jee, although lett intel
ligible In hi* tpeecb. He reprotented. or
rather imitated, the lyroptomt af paralytit
upon Captain Ilall, confining himtelf to
the part he taid he wat affected, which I
undoi stood to'be the right tide. He made
ute, when speaking of Hall't illncat, of the
remarkable word*, "Me plenty aaviea, but
not much tpeak Englith, " and in connec
tion with what h teveral timet called
"porriton " which I understood from him
afterward to imean poiton.
Mystery Somewhere.
The circunittancet connected with the
death of Captain Hall, thus collected, wear
a palpable appearance of my ttery, Setting
aside the testimony of the Esquimaux,
llar.s and Joe, tutpieion it inseparable from
thi* version of the story. No doubt Cap
tain Tyton and Mr. Myers are ia pottat
•ion of information which they are unwill
ing to conituun icale yet, but which will
deubtlass, become public at the proper time
The facta statad, though tbair veracity ba
aituined—which induce the tutpieion that
thermit something more and that thera
hat been a suppression, if not a perversion
of the truth—are that in perfects
health geod ipirita and in the lively po
tension of all hit faculties, should suddenly
be prostrated by a dangerous and ultimata
ly fatal illnest, arising solely from the
simple cause of drinking part of a cup of
coffee or from the beat of bit cabin.
CAI'T. JACK'S FLI GHT-A FIGHT

BY V. A DO DOE.
lAVosn tkt Xtw York Gtwrvcr.]
Tbo annual pilgrimage of Mobomedans
to Mecca, about which wo in our wastarn
world know so little, it one of tba notice
able recurring events of the werld. From |
Ave to seven great caravans arrive in the
Holy City every year. The Syrian care
van, which creates the desert from Damas
cus to Medina; the Egyptian, which start*
(rum Cairo, plodding through sand* for
many weeks; the Persian, pursuing its
weary way from Bagdad; tba African,
from Morocco , end the Indian, from Ye
men—oompage the bonds which unite lb#
follower* of the Celt# prophet from Indie to
Abyssinia. It it safe la say that the small
est of these caravan* is always competed of
at least 4.OUU camel* and 10,000 pilgrims ;
while the Syrian, which i* the largest,
numbered, two years ego, more then 15,-
OU> camels end CU.OUO pilgrims. Now,
though this it a greet felling off from the
splendor of the pilgrimage made in a. p.
12M by the mother of Moslem b' lllakt, j
when 120,000 camels and dromedaries and
nearly 260,000 peraons made up the vast
crusade, yet even this Syrian caravan,
winding it* way acre** the decrt for many
weary weeks, is something which the
t\ etern mind hardly comprehends.
Perhaps there is no mere impressive
sigh: then that of a religious caravan mov
ing In mld-de*ert at early morning. Thai I
which came from the coast* of Algiers.
Tunis and Morocco to Timhuctoo in IHBB. I
had been in end out of the Grant Sahara
tor eighteen weeks. From every part of
Northern Africa, on the confine* ef the
•ants and in the moat remote village#,
pilgrims had been 'flowing in upon this
Tripolitan caravan, until it numbered a
mighty host, consisting on tba on# band
of n fan rich dignitaries, oetenutieus in
their soiled magnificence, sleeping at cat*
in their litters, and surrounded with luxu
ries even in the desert, and on the other,
of pedlar* and soldiers, servant* and cam |
el-drivers, mendicant* and jugglar*. (not!
ona-quarter of the vast number being
religious pilgrim*), amounting to many
thousand*; no more picturesque scene ev
er beld onlookers entranced then did tbit
long winding line of living masse* It
moved "by nigbt end early morning
Bands of Arab singers and haul-boy play
er* want in groups by the side# of the pro
cession. Torches were lighted a* the
derknee* cam* en, nnd kept burning nil
night. Provieioat were conveyed by
Bedouins, who travelled by day, preced
ing the host by twelve hour*. While the
darkness lasted, the movement of the long
irregular platoons of larches was wonder
fully fine; hut whan marnieg light began
to streak the East, end the veil of nigbt
•lowly lifted itself from off the moving
masses of lurbeaed pilgrims and haltered
camels, teat* and canopies, toiled banner*
end dingy housings, the effect a* they
wound along in straggling sections can
not be described.
It bvdljr iNut possible Utt, il this
late day. lh com m arc* of the Kut should
h (till carried on M it was thousands ol
year* ago. When the hretbera of Joseph
bed cet him into e pit, they beheld e
company of Ishmaelite* coming from Oil
lead, "with their catneU bearing ipicery,
and balm, and myrrh, gulag to carry it
down to Egypt ' To-day the caravan* e!
Pyrin do the tame thing, travel the tame
read, carry the tame article* of trade, and
their harp-eyed leader* are at ready for
a bargain, whether in a precious stone or a
slave-boy. Odd enough it it, too, how
cheaply acrote-detert freight it done. A
camel load it about TWO lb*., avoirdupoit,
and il it taken from Bagdad ta Aleppo, a
dittance of tlx hundred milet, for twenty
dollar* in geld.
There are twe kind* of commercial cara
van*, heavy and light, compoeed both of
camel*, but at different from each ether at
the dray hone from the hunter. The
former, tbo heavy camel, make* a mean
daily rale of eighteen milet; the latter, if
puthed, can turpaat a hundred. Some of
thete lait, when in goed conditien and
light-weighted, will lake up a nine-mile*
an-kour tret, end keep it up without re
fTethmenl for twelve contecutive hour*.
Deaert travel* have lott in our dey tome
of their horrer*. Whole caravan* no long
er die of thint, nar are the bone* of deed
camel*,—at Burckhart tayt they were in
hit day.-the only guide of the pilgrim
through the watlet of tand. Ketervoin
of water have been established wherever
pottible in the more travelled detertt, and
the trantiu are made with lest danger
from Bcdeuiat. Still, however, water hat
to be carried for the traveller, and tkin*
containing about til gallon* aacb,—wbicb
U a three day*' allowance for a tingle
man,—are put on the beast ia addition to
hit ordinary load. Ha,—the traveller,—
however, it expected to drink only when
the whole caravan stop*. No matter hew
thirsty he may ba, "he mutt net," ia Arab
phrase, "have hit mouth tied to the water
tkin."
The bait* in the dctert are exceedingly
curious. Tli# tight of the ooxing water, if
the stop bo at a spring ; the verdure of the
merest around; the flowers, and fragrance
of aromatic herb*, and aong of bird*; tht
self-satisfaction of the patient dumb beatts
who have drunk tkeir 111; the low hum of
tbe Arab telling hit stories under the start;
and, bye-and-bya, asal! fall off asleep, tht!
impressive silence that reign* everywhere,
are what one enjoy• at the time aad re
nt embers pleasantly in after year*.
Speaking of tbe cheapness of desert car
riage, let tbe reader note thi*. Caravans
from tbe tea province* ef China to Kiachta
in Bussia,—a Journey of savanty days,—
bring annually about twelve million
pounds, avoirdupoit, often, at two cant*
per pouad. The ostrich feather* and
gums which reach Cairo from Arabia ;
the gold dust and ivery that cross the
Sahara from Timbuctoo ; tbo flna fabrics
displayed in tbe markets of Thibet, which
come by caravans from the remotest re
cesses ef Africa, art exchanged and sold at
a cost of freight that teems ridiculously
small.
Tbe transition from tand to toil it per
haps one of tbe roast pleasant recollections
of desert journeying. For days you have
been perplexed with the Rivers
aad lakes start up on every side; stunted
shrubs appear as mighty trees, iaviting
you to their shade ; and in a moment the
wbola expanse melts awgy, and there
rises before the eyes a shiplots see, with
irregular coast and bluff bead-lands, green
inlands and precipitous promontories. Ac
customed to thss# perplexed and shifting
•fHM you doubt **iy thing, so th# when
the ground begin* to undulate, and palm
treat to appear, they are counted at cheat*
<>f the mirage. It it only when ascending
rending the brew of a gentle ilope, behold
ing acacia* and flowering lupia* tpreading
••ver tbe landscape, and lUteuing to the
wavelet* of some stream breaking upon
the thiagle, your camel quicken* her pace
onward through tree*, thrubt and under
wood, that you are a**ured of your ten tot
and your Joy it complete.
