CVvngresmau Spoor, of tho Huntingdon
district, has introduced a bill for the
repeal of the duty on friction matches
Ix>t tho law compelling stamping of
checks also be repealed —it is Wth a
bother and a nuisance.

They have now identified the horse
whieh the abductor* of t'harley Kv**
(Imvo ; they have shot the abductor* of
Charley, and next—the intelligence will
come that Charley himself has not yet
Wvn found.
It is rumored—and ia highly prol*able
—that Mr. Wallace, if elected to the I .
S. Senate— will not resign his scat in th*
state senate before the 4th of March, in
which event there would 1* no election
for state senator before next Nov.
On 12, in the lower house, at Harris
burg, resolutions were adopted censur
ing president Grant for the outrage oom
mitted against the state of lamisiana.
Many other state legislatures have l*a.<*-
ed similar resolutions, and governors
have sent in special message's arraigning
the president for his unlawful action.
From the resolution of tho lVtuocra
tic Standing Committee, published in
another column, it will be seen that the]
late IVrn. Co. Convention is to re-assem
ble on Feb. 2, to nominate a candidate
for Assembly; also that on Saturday
preceding, 30 Jan., the democratic voters
will meet at the places for holding elec
tions to re-instruct the delegates. Re
member, then, democrats, Saturday
in-ii . you can instruct your delegates
whom to support for Assembly. Be at
your post on that day—it is important.
The legislature is close, and we must
have a good and true representative at
Harrisburg.
The more Grant's outrage is j
received in detail, the blacker becomes
his crime against the *-ountry. Besides!
taking jKisst'ssion t>f the state, house and
disjiersing the legally elected and organ
ized legislature with the bayonet—be
cause it was democratic —a later account
show s what other means wer*- ready fr
bloody work and destruction, viz :
" Ihtriioj th< day and about the h<Htr of the
no. tbling of the Legislature the gun* of the
r! xj-Ai}> mere loaded, mnnneti and [tainted
in the direction of the Staft'Hiaue ' So you
-co every appliance of the General Gov
ernment. even-thing at Kellogg's com
mand, was employe*l to prevent the
organization of the House in the inter
ests of the Democrats. It is the impres
sion here that the first step towards im
jerialism has been made. The jn'ople
an" 1 stunned. They see, for the second
time in two years, the fruits of a fair vic
tory at the polls snatched front their
hands by Federal intervention. They
-ee, and I might almost say they feel,
tlie Federal bayonets at their throat*,
and—they know of no present redress."
When we think of the overwhelming
victory achieved by the democrat* in
Rmixiana, on the same day that New
\'*rk, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and
a score of other states routed Giantism,
it will make any true patriot's blood boil
t>* read of the outrage against a sovereign
state to defeat the will of its people,
without tlie semblance of law. It is too
much to ask freemen to submit to such
things.
Here is .-oinething that may interest
Supervisors everywhere. Persons sus
taining losses on account of the bad con
dition of roail*. can recover damages. A
case of the kind oecured in Union coun
ty, which is related l>y the Telegraph as
follows: Onorahout the4thult.,Mr.J.E.
Buoy, of Limestone twp., whilst driving
on the highway along Penns Uroek, met
with an accident, by reason of the bad
condition of the road, his horse falling
down an *-ml>ankment, into the ereek.
and was drowned. He immediately
made complaint to the Supervisor* of
-aid township, Messrs. Ja*. Crossgrove
and Daniel Smith, putting his damages
at SIOO. Failing to pay the same, suit
was brought and the case tested lefore
Esq., (ietgen on Monday week, F. J. R.
Zeller, of Snyder Co., appearing as coun
sel for Pl'ff. Itecision was rendered in
favor of Mr. Buoy, the Justice awarding
him $-50 damages.
The National House of Representatives
on 7th passed the Senate finance bill by
a vote of 13ti yeas to 99 nays, and it now
only needs the President's signature to
become a law. That it accords with his
views and will receive his approval there
i* no doubt. The leading features of the
bill are First. Free banking. Secmtd. Tlie
retiring of an amount of greenbacks
equal to eighty per cent, of the new na
tional notes issued, until the greenback
circulation shall be reduced t053,000,000,
after which no further reduction of the
greenbacks is to take plate. Hard. The
withdrawal and destruction of the frac
tional currency and the substitution of
silver coin, the arrangement to go into
effect as soon as practicable, under the
direction of the Secretary of the Treasu
ry, who is authorized to use the surplus
money for supplying the silver coin, and
if this is not sufficient, to sell the re
quisite amount of bonds of the new se
ries to obtain the funds for that purpose.
Fourth. Removing the charge for the
coinage of gold at the several mints.
Fifth. The resumption of specie pay
ments, to commence on the Ist day of
January, 1879.
The democratic standing committee
which met at Bellefonte, on Saturday
last, to take action relative to calling a
convention to make nominations for the
]>ending special election, resolved that
the former instructions were not bind-
ing beyond the convention held in Au
gust, and that the different districts are
empowered to send their delegates to the
special convention with new instructions.
This action is proper and sensible, and
can not fail to be satisfactory to the peo
ple, as it puts the matter into their own
hands. Interested ones who are afraid
of the people may not like this.
Francis Kernau, democrat, will be the
liextXJ. S. Senator from New York. Mr.
Kernanisan able man, and New York
will be well represented.
Andy Johnson, it now seems certain,
will be elected U. S. Senator from Ten
nessee.
Gen. Frank M. Cockrell, democrat,
will be elected U. 8. Senator from Mis
souri, in place ofSeharz. Hope be will
prove as able as Schurz.
Pinehbaek, mulatto, has been elected
U. S. Senator, by the Sheridan legislature
vf Louisiana.

LOUISIANA.
Washington, D. ('., January U>. —The
report of the special committee of the
House of Representatives on the true
condition of atfiurs in Louisiana, publish
| e*l in full here to-lay and throughout
the country, is pronounce*! the cajv-stone
of the refutation to the long column of
slanders and falsehoods by which the
President, ami more latterly his Kitrap,
General Sheridan, have maintained the
authority of the Kell**©; usurpation.
The character of the sub-committee is
so high in both political parties —Messrs.
Foster, Phelps on one hand and Mr. Pot
ter on the other—that no one ha* been
found to-day who doubts the absolute
truth of their statement*. The re|irt
has had the effect even in a day to create
quite a revolution of sentiment among
the supporter* and adherent* of the Ad
ministration who favor fair play rather
than fraud and violence in the Louisiana
situation. They find that there is abso
lutely no defence to be made of the He
turning Board whieh cheated the Con
servatives out of the control of the 1-eg
islaturebv the fabricate*! accounts of in
timidation in the Parish of Rapides,
while many of them now swell the tide
of indignation at the course of the Feder
al troops in perjietuating the infamy by
force of anus. The Administration is
j exceedingly anxious that the rest of the
Republican members <>f the committee
should go to New Orleans and take tes
j timonv, to see if this report cannot l>e
I impeached or mollified some way in the
interests of the Radical party.
Assembly
We are authorized to announce B. F.
Philips, of Aaronsburg. a* a candidate
f>r .Assembly, subject to the usages of
democratic party.
Assembly.— \fr. Kurt: —l was pleased
to see Hon. Sam'l Gilliland recommend
ed in last week's Reporter, for Assem
bly. He is a common man and the
friend of the common classes and seem*
to be the choice of the people generally.
He is a gentleman of large intelligence,
good judgment, and no more upright
citizen can be found in the county. He
is not a beging office-seeker, Init will
serve the people if they call upon him.
Let us have the old-fashioned, upright
men as our lawmakers, and the public
will have better servants. POTTER.
A SOCJID WORD or ADVICIC.— Hon F.
Kurtz —Dear Sir. At it become* our duty
to elect a man to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of the lamented S. S. Wolf
we thould certainly be very cautiom, and
endeavor tojjet a good man—a man of
sound principle* honest and upright in all
hi* action*, one in whom the democracy of
Centre county can place implicit conl.-
dence, and who u willing to serve the peo
ple and work tor the general welfare of his
constituent*. Sometimes men are aipiring
to office who are ao selfish that when they
fail in their effort*, they will either go
back on their former friends or else talk of
coming before the people as independent
candidates, or if not independent candi
date*, they become so lukewarm on the
subject of politics that you scarcely think
thev had ever been candidates for office,
and sometime* even throw barrier* in the
way of their successful competitor* in or
der to defeat them, and perhaps for the
sake of having a little revenge, will vote
fur a republican, or an independent candi
date rather than for the regular nominee
of their own party. Such men Ido think
should not be nominated. In the first
place, you cannot trust tbem. In the sec.
ond place, thev do not hesitate to sacritlce
their word anu honor in order to accom
plish their own selfish aims. Now 1 would
say, fellow Democrats, let us always nom
inate men who are r.ot so over anxious for
office, but who are willing fe servo pro
viding the people say so, and moreover
who are willing to fall in ranks as privates
and help to fight and gain the victory in
case they should be defeated in llio noini
nation
Such men we can trust, such men I con
sider truo to their pledges, and such men
deserve our united support. 1 do hope,
I fellow Democrats, the day is at hand when
the people shall select the candidates, and
not the candidates going to every nook
and corner in the county, and by fuir
promises, and perhaps dishonet pledges
persuade the people to support them. Let
us be honest in politics as well as in all our
other actions, and no doubt the party will
prosper and our country will be the better
for it. A Dkmocrat.

If these words mean anything, the
object is to encourage Sheridan topursu

GOV. TILDEN OX THE LOl
ISJAXA OUTRAGE.
(iov. Tilden, on Tuesday of last wee
sent a s]w, ial message to the New Yor
' legislature, relative to Grant's erim
against luisiana, which is so plait
sound and logical, that no fairminde
men will dispute the governor's reasot
ing. Gov. Tilden says:
On your reassembling I deem it to 1
j my duty to invite your attention tograv
C events which have transpired in oursii
tor State of Ixuisiana. The interval <
your adjournment has afforded you a
- opportunity to receive statements <
parties concerned in those occurrence
particularly that of Lieutenant Gcncri
Sheridan in his official report to the Se<
rotary of War, dated January 8, 187-
• You ure now enabled to know with cei
tainty all the facts necessary to form
just and deliberate judgment as to th
nature of the principal acts which hav
created so much public excitement. A<
cording to the official report of Got
Sheridan United States soldiers entere
the House of Representatives of th
State of Louisiana while that body w u
in session, and removed from it five
its memtiers. The pretexts for that a<
are:
Fimt. That it was done under direr
tions from the Governor of the State rcc
ognized by the President.
Second. 'flic pereons removed lun
been illegally seated, and had no legal
right to he tliery.
Third. Fear existed in the mind ol
General Sheridan that in some undefin
ed contingency violence might hap
pen.
With r'S|K- l to the tirst and second ol
these pretexts, it is a decisive answer
that the Louisiana House of Represen
tatives had by the constitution of that
State exclusive judgment of the right of
its members to seats; that its judgment
is subject to no review by any judicial
uithority, still less by the Governor or
t>y officers of the United States army ;
liat its judgment in favor of these mrin
jers, thus partly reviewed, is binding in
aw and conclusive upon the Governor
ind Lieutenant General Sheridan, and
ipon everybody else. In respect to the
bird pretext, the fear in the* mind of
Lieutenant General Sheridan of possible
uture violence, when no violence really
existed, is not only no lawful occasion,
