Or. Livingstone it said to have expre.s

he, chattering one day at a party in Lon
don with Sir Edwin Landseer, "but you

majesty about him in the forest than there
is about that poodle. It is all. poetry
Lions are arrant cowarda—cowardly,
sneaking beasts. You can hardly tell a
lion from a donkey when you coine upon
hini in the forest; and if you come upon
a lion suddenly, his first impulse is to tuck
his tail between bis legs and bolt, lie
will spring upon you if he comes upon you
unawares and can have time to crouch,
but if a man has the courage to look a li
on in the face, you need not even cock
your rifle."

ASSEMBLY,
llox, F. Ki'arz -.—Suitable caodidates
for the Legislature it what the democracy
of Centre are, at this period, looking for.
We want men who are henest and capable
of filling the office, and who will serve to
the best interest of their constituents.
Such an one, and one who is deserving of
theeffiee, and who would command the
vote of the party, can be found in the per
son of 11. Y. Stitxer, Esq., ef Bellefonte.
Mr, Stitxer has heretofore held responsi
ble positions and always served the people
with honor to himself, and left the office
which he held with a spotless character, and
proven himself to t>e one of the most faith
full democrats the county affords. If he
be nominated ai d electeJ, he would make
a member to whom the | eople could point
with pride, and feel confident that they
would be faithfully represented. Should
ho be nominated, we would give him such
an overwhelming majority on '.this side of
the county that it would even exceed the
expectations of the most sanguine demo
! orat. Pisx's Vau.it.
CIi ARM or MANNER. —It is said that
bees will not sliag a person whose skin is
smeaicd in honey. Tho gracious manners
of Charles James Fox preserved him from
personal dislike oven when ha had gamb
led away his last dollar, and, politically,
was the most unpopular man in England.
Ac hariniagmanner not only enhances 'per
sonal beauty,;but hides ugliness and makes
even plainness agreeable. There is hard
ly any career in which an ill-favorad coun
tenance is not a stumblingblock at the out
set, that may nevar be surmounted.
There are people called "unpresentable,"'
who have giants to contend with at tjieir
first start in life. Yet who does not know
how much a happy manner often does to
neutralize the ill effects ol forbidding
looks ? The fascination of the dema
gogue Wilke' manner triumphed over
both physical and moral deformity, ren
dering even ugliness agreeable ; and he
boasted to Lord Townsend, the handsom
est man in Great Britain, that, with half
an hour's start, he would get ahead of his
lordship in the affections of any wertian in
the kingdom. The ugliest Frenchman
perhaps that ever lived was Mirabeau ;
yet such was the witchery ol his manner
that the belt of no gay Lothario of his .day
was hung with a greater number of bleed
ing lemale hearts than that of this thun
derer of the tribune who shook from his
locks "pestilence and war," and whoso
looks were sp hideous that he was com
pared to "a tiger pitted by the small-pox."
The success which Aaron Burr achieved,
up to the hour when he betrayed his party
in ISOI, arose not more from his political
skill and knowlege than from his inimita
ble address and his infinite tact in conver
sation.—From Prof. Matthews' 'Getting
on in the World.'
A SIOO MISTAKE
I( there be one man of this cantinent
who appreciates the value of advertisiag,
lis Orange Judd. A number of year* ago
when he and bis wife spent their eveniugs
in putting up packages of seeds, and a
penny had its full value to them, he sent a
boy with a check (or SIOO to the New
Yerk Herald office, with instructions te
psy what was due arid leave the rest for
advertising. The boy being dull of com
prehension did not understand him, and
told the book-keeper to use SIOO for one
day. The next morning what was Mr.
Judd's horror to see on taking up tbe Her
ald, "Read the American Agriculturist"
repeated fer nearly a whole column. He
rushed down to the office for an explana
tion, and found that they had only follow
ed instructions, and there was no help for
it. "We are ruined," he said to his wife;
"a whole year's advertisement gone in one
day." But instead of being his ruin it
was the beginning to his success. Imme
diately subscriptions poured in from all
parts of the country. The Agriculturist
became an institution, and its proprietor
is one of the wealthiest men in New York.
Mr. Judd has continued from that day of
the lucky mistake to be one of the most
extensive advertisers in the country.

TIIK BRACK OF KUHorK.
A Mighty Wnr Imminent —Ilia In
crcnec of Huge Armies llcconiitig
liitolemlilo—Opinion* of tho loin
don "Times."
London, May IJS The leading article in
the Times ol yesteidav is ono well worthy
•f the attention which it will everywhere
receive. It was a plain warning that Ku
rope is on lha eve of a mighty war. Af
fairs have come to such a pas* that the
burden of maintaining the armies which
all the nations have prepared tor the coin
ing war is ti'o great long to be endured.
But still these armies are constantly In
creased. "The process of turning ciltaeus
into Soldier*," says the Times, "goes en
all ever Europe without any apparent lim
it." The German army is more than halt
as large again as it was fifteen years ago,
but still it i> large enough to satisfy Bis
marck and Moltke France, Austria,
Italy, Russia, Belgium, and Sweden is
each following Germany's example, and
are increasing their armies. Kaeh is afraid
.•fall the ether- and "Kuropo is it turning
to the traditions of an earlier age, when
every free man was a soldier, and the pur
suits of industry wore wholv subordinate
to the claims of military service Each
nation says its. arming only for defense
but some of them base already ariuics tor
defense more numerous than auy offensive!
army thai can be brought against them
For, says the Times
Germany ha- a tola! army of l,'.V>l,te<ll
men, and this is very nearly twice as large
as the entire ofl'ensiv e army of European
and Asiatic Russia, and falls very little
short of tha combined offensive forces ol
France aud Austria and Italy. The
French army, again, is much larger than
the army with which Germany could
make the attack. Nor is Italy less well
defended against all pctible assailants
Within the last fifteen years she has al
most doubled her standing army, and has
increased the available etfctiiivo purl of it
in an even larger proportion, She has
now wXj.PIO soldier* with whout she can
defend herself, and with whom she
can attack her neighbors. If we measure
her defensive forces against the offensive for
ce of ai y other nation whatever, we shall
| rind that they do not full far short of any,
and that they are considerably in excess of
most. The very pretense of reason thus
altogether disappears, and the jeluusie
ard luspicions of the nations of Europe
with regard to each other's future move-!
uieut. are shown clearly to be as baseless
as they are ruinous."
England for every I.OUD of her popula
tion, mnuilams only three soldiers for of- <
tensive purposes , Italy and Belgium main- •
tain twelve; France aud Austria fifteen;
and Gettnany twcnly-ena. It is in vain <
fur Germany to pretend that she wishes i
enly to defend herself—she means mis- s
chief, aud the guu which will be the sig- r
Bel of the next great war, will be firx-d by c
her. 1
TOPE TIL S To THE PILGRIMS
Reception of the Americans at the
Vatican—The PuutilFs Address
Rome, June 9. —Tlio pilgrims from the
L'nited States, accompanied by one hun
dred American Catholic residents of Rome,
pteceeded to the Vatican to-dav, and were
received by the Tope. Bishop Dwenger,
introducing them, expatiated on the un
alterable devotion ot the Catholics of the
United States te the Holy Father. Hon
estly loving liberty, he heartily condemn
ed the tyranical persecutions of the Church
by braggaits false to liberty and estranged
from God.
l>r. Thoard tpoke briefly in ttie same'
spirit. The Tope replied that amid the
darkness which encompased the world this'
manifestation was a ray of light. Ene
mies of the Holy Church were numerous.
It was a great consolation to look upon
the New \N orli, where true faith had so
marve'leusly develeped as to require the
the creation of new dioceses. Still false
religions prevail in a large, part of that
continent, and we must constantly pray
for the restoration of all to the true faith.
The pilgrims advanced one by one and
kissed the Pope's hanj, and presented
gifts they had brought from America.
After this most intere-ting interview the
pilgrims withdrew, deeply impressed.
They propese on a future occasion to
present an album containing the signature
of each member of the pilgrimage. Thurs

THE REFORMED CHURCH SYNOD
A Stormy Discussion on the Revised
Litu-gy—Sweeping Change*.
Poughkeepsie, June 5 —The Synod of
the Reformed Church to-day discussed the
report of committee appointed to revise the
liturgy. The discussion wa* a very spirit
ed one throughout The Rev. Ir. Ganz
declared that the revised liturgy should
be placed beforethe-cla'se* for deliberation,
and charged that it w< leading to ritual
ism. The Rev. A M MSAN opposed any
tinkering with the liturgy whatever.
Somo of the members favored the striking
oat of the liturgy, which brought out the
assertion from another member that he
did not believe eight churches of the
American Synod worshiped alike. Sev
eral times there was much confusion in the
discussion.
The evening session was a liorray one.
Finally the following resolution, offered by
Elder Pruyn, was adopted :
Rsiolmi, That the Synod approve of so i
much of the liturgy reported by the com
mittee a- is not inconsistent with or forbid
en by tho constitution, and give permis
sion to use the same, this resolution not
sanctioning any change in the habtisnial
form or the form of the administration of
the Lord's supper.
The revised liturgy thus adopted almost
entirely revolutionizes the marriage ser
vice, the burrial service, the service of the
lay ing of the corner stone of a church or
chapel, and the service of the dedication
of a church or chapel. The churches in
the various classis, however, have permis
sion to use it or not as they deem proper.

THE RESCUED BURGLAR
His Body Found Buried near the
Scene of his Attempted Robberv nnd
Murder.
Milton, Pa., Juno b.—On Wednesday
afternoon last two boy* were gathering
(lowers in the wood* about three miles
from Samuel Bond's house, in which the
light with the burglar occurred on Satur
day night last. About a hundred yard*
from the read they came upon a fresh
mound of earth. They commenced dig
ging, and after uncovering about two feel
of earth came to the body of a man. They
ran frightened away, and told Wm.
Coles, who was coming up the road with n
team. He exhumed the body. It had
nothing on but a shirt. Tbo face wa* dis
colored, but as the corpse was not decom
posed it could not have been buried long.
Coles concluded at once that tbe body
was that of the burglar who had been so
badly wounded by the Bonds, and rescued
by his companions. He put the body on
i his wagon! mid took it to Bond's house.
| They identified the remains as those of the
burglar Meyer.
There is no doubt that the conditioner
tbe burglar was so critical at the time he
was rescued by his companions that he
was not able to stand the ride, and ho died
in a short time after being taken (rom the
house.

About threa hundred ai d forty colored

4 o'clock tbi* |m< rning, having collec ted
in Columbus by different route* last night.
They were accompanied by twenty-one
special policemen from Columbus. They
passed the Neltonville depot and proceed
ed directly la I.* ngslreth's mines, half a
rail* below, but still within the village
corporation, where they faund everything
quiet. They ware immediately placed on
military duty. Arm* were placed in (heir

tory of half a mile in diameter, rounding
the entrance to Longtlrelh'i Mines, were
ettablisbrd During the day the American
flag has floated from Lo:>g*trelh't where
the new men collected. Ihe camp line*
have been marked down, and the colored
men hare been petroling the outskirts all
day with musket* and fixed bayonets, re
fusing admittance within the lines to all
not endorsed by the operator* or police.
About twenty-seven are on picket duty
around the hill* in the rear ot the work*,
and a reserve picket force is to he added

Any one presenting himself for admission

Meeting of the Miner*.
At the urns. meeting of union miners
yesterday the demand of L. D. Poston Tor
an increase of one hundred inches to the
bushel was considered. The minors re
fused, but agreed to recede from their bas
is of three dollars per hundred to two dol
lars and eighty seven cents which Poston
accepted. During the strike Poston has
not opposed the miners' demands, but lie
works but a few hands, and is not in ttie
general conferences of the operators. The
minors say they are willing to treat with
the other operators the same a. with Pos
ton, and that they have been sonll through
the strike ;!but the operators this afternoon
repeat their declamation that they will
have nothing to do with Union miners at
any price. Sixty strikers have just arriv
ed in procession from C'arbondale, and
four hundred are expected from Sttuits
ville to-night.

AFFLICTED SOUTH CAROLINA.
An old resident of South Carolina, who
came East on business, wu- recently met
by the editor ef the Newark Journal, and,
in the conversation thnt ensued, told a sto
ry af tho social and political condition of!
that State, ef n nature so disgraceful that
every honest man in the country would at i
once indignantly deny iu truth were it
possible to do so in the face of the floods
of similar testimony from other quarters
The story i* in substance as follows: Its
Charleston County alone there have been
•2/Jt) parcel, ol property lately .old for
taxes, and forfeited to the State for want
of bidders. Between the imported thieves
and the native thieves there i hardly any
thing of value left. Governor Moe* and
his friends have demoralized tho negroes
and got control of the State, and now hold
what there i* left of it. The negroes hnv.
great confidence in all Northern men, and
that is at the foundation of much of tin ;
evil. For instance, there came a man
through n certain section of the State rep
resenting himself a a son ol General Sher
man, telling the negroes to select their
forty acres of land secretly, and in consid
eration of so much money they should
soon have the deeds. Tho swindler, of
course, realised largely. Again, many
| "missionaries" sent troni the North cheat
and delude the poor black men by making
them pay roundly for bibles, school-hooks,
Ac., sent by charitable associations, and
when any Southern mnn attempts to ex
pose the game tho blacks call him a
"Detuacrack liar." The whites complain
more ol high assessment. than high taxa
tion. An illustration of this is furnished
by tho case of a gentleman in Orangeburg
County, who was assessed $27,0n pro
perty that would not bring $10,(1X1 in cash
under the hammer. Tha same party had
State and county claims, but could not pay
his tax with them or get them paid with
out submitting to a heavy shave by some
of the ring agents with State funds. Pro
perty sold for taxes when purchasers can
be found scarcely brings more than the
amount ol tuxes and costs, as there is no
"lie but those in tho ring uhlo to buy.
