VOL. IX.
With this issue the Centre Reporter
enters its ninth volume. When we look
back and sec our commencement with a
list of 175 names, now swelled near un
to 1200, we flatter ourselves that we
have published a paper that met the
wants and desires of the cilisens ofCer
tre. Our list has steadily increased
from the first issue of the Reporter to
the present writing—without ottering
Chromoe, gift*, or sending out canvas
sers. We offered the Reporter upon it
merit* alone, and we are glad that it
finds appreciation in so many families.
Thankful for the friendship and good
will shown us on many aides, which we
have striven to merit, we promise that
in the future our efforts shall be to sus
tain the reputation of the Reporter as
the advocata of truth, honest men, and
true democratic principles, trusting to
retain all our old friend*, and welcoming
all new ones.
Gov. Hartranft ha* granted pardon* to
Parks and several of the miner* conv icl
ed with him in Clearfield county.
Instead of making the taxing of
church-property an issue, as he recom
mends in his message and to help in his
third term aspirations, could Grant not
as well have tacked on itwhelhcrthe tax
on whiskey shall be honestly collected
or not.
Grant should first see that the whis
key tax is faithfttlly collected before he
proposes to collect taxes off of church
propsrty. What guarantee does he give
that he will not allow his agents, the
Babcocka, A vary*, Joyce* and M'Honald*
to steal the church tax as they did the
whiskey tax ?
They have already scorched the White
House, and if the prosecuting attorneys
use all the evidence that willbe brought
to them in the Babcock trial they "1 plat
hell with every man in the Executive
Mansion.— JoAh A. Joyet, Xiuouri JVwi
tmtHmry.
Joyce having been a white-house pet,
he ought to be booked as to what will
play iJfk with every man in the executive
manaion. The whiakey thieves have
been traced right into the white-house
already, and the man next to Grant him
self has been nabbed. The goose having
hung allitudulum, as Babcock tele*
graphed to SL'Lonis after his ride with the
President, it may possibly' play iuh with
every man in the Executive Mansion"
if "not a guilty man is to escape."
The amount of business and number
of in the Clinton coun
ty court, last week, should be gratifying
to the litigants as well as beneficial to
the tax payers of our neighboring coun
ty. Judges Mayer and Or vis kept two
courts in session, whenever the engage
ments of attorneys could be so arranged
to suit. And we understand that it is
the desire and intention of the Judges to
continue holding double courts until the
business now ou hand shall have been
disposed of. The last cases reached had
been of three yean standing, which is
entirely too long, when the litigants are
ready at any time, and anxious to have
their cases disposed of in tbe shortest
time possible. When cases are delayed
so long, it is much more difficult to pre
pare for trial ; the witness get scattered,
some die, and the memories of some be
come impaired, which do not call the
facts to mind as they existed at the time
of commencement of litigation. When
Judge Mayer was alone, his untiring ef
forts to keep the court business from ac
cumulating, almost broke down his
health, which made a viait to foreign
climates absolutely necessary to enable
him to recruit This, of itself, was
sufficient proof that the business of our
courts was too much for one Judge, and
the Legislature acted wisely in cresting
an additional Judge for this district.
With Judge Orris on the bench, the
excuses on the part of the court for de
lay no longer exist, which will be a
source of actual saving to the tax-payers
of our district, as well as to all other
parties concerned.— Brllefunte Republican,

COXGRESSMAX MACKYFTS VINDI
CATION.
It must be gratifying to congressman
Mackey, of this district, to notice the
favorable mention that is made of him,
now that he is triumphantly elected and
has taken his seat—we have reference to
the favorable mention he now receives
from some of the few who sought to pre
vent his nomination, and failing in that
carried their opposition to the ballots
box and attempted his defeat there. We
are glad that at least a few of these /etc
democrats who opposed Mr. Mackey'a
election are now seeing their evor and
are coming to his right hand. We trust
that their motives are kanett, pure and
unselfish as Mr. Mackey himself is, and
that nothing sinister is at the bottom of
it. Our member of congress was im
mensely vindicated at the polls against
the cry of "monopolist," "banker" and
"ring candidate"—coming from some
who should have stood by him—by tbe
almost unanimous voice of his constit
uents at the ballot box, and to learn
now that some of these at least, speak of
him "as one of the best qualified and that
no one will make a more efficient mem
ber," is a [little {additional vindication
that will do to Jay in store.
But, besides the gratification it no
doubt affords Col. Mackey to hare these
pleasant acknowledgments made at a
time when he does not ask for nor need
them, we must accept them for him as
entirely spontaneous and devoid of scß
fishness. We share in the gratification
thus afforded—because the Reporter was
one of Mr. Mackey's earliest supporters—
the first to bring him out for congress—
and with the large endorsement that
followed throughout the district, the Re
porter now sees with pleasure the ad
mission of error on the part of his ene
mies, which is additional evidence that
the Reporter was right and brought out
the right man. The Reporter always
was the advocate of good, honest, and
capable men, and ever will be, and its
recommendations and advice can be
followed with safety. The Reporter,
therefore is gratified to notice that those
who were opposed to it and to Mr. Mack
ey are now "coming over" and admit
their error.
We are confident that Col. Mat-key
Will faithfully represent his constituents
and thatat the end of his term we can
proclaim through our columns, "well
done, good and faithful servant."

All (he big and little bell* 'of Centre

on New Year eve w*aa enough to disturb
George the Third in hie touib, and recall
to his recollection te*-prtie*snd stamp
acts ; and the salutes from cannon, anvil*
and smaller tire-arms, that joined the
glad songs of the hells from Maine to the
gulf and from New York to 'Frisco were
enough to give that long departed mon
arch the Bunker Hill nightmare, with
the surrender of laird Cornwullia at
Yorktown for a aide-show, ltnt why let
such sound* disturb him? the bell* were

Now we have no patent on the above
poetry; and Airthcr, we disclaim any
thing of a personal nature between
George the Third or John Bull and the
Reporter. The little unpleasantness ot
l??t>, has passed over and Uncle Sam
(jets along so finely since having set up
for himself that none of his boys feels
like giving him a black eye or blue
shins—but we only feel like letting those
fellows across the Atlantic creek know
that we're all alive aud kicking and in
tend to ring and shoot and celebrate and
go on just one whole year, aud invite
them over to see our big show—admis
sion 50 cents. While they can report
only one sovereign, we can report 40
millions, aud have room enough for 200
million more, and that, taken altogether
we are quite a big thing on ice and
know a thing or two and know how to
make our mark. Johnny Bull may at
tend our big centennialbration aud go to
school here and learn something. Let
them bring over any of their Glumdal
clitches to compare with our own pret
ty American princesses, brought up on
buckwheat cakes and corn-dodgers and
in Freedom's pure atmosphere,—and
who ran cook a dinner, nurse a baby,
chop a piece of wood and dance a quad

Parisian bell. We are up to John Bull
in all these things, can beat him in a
thousand others, andean whollophin; if
he don't behave civil.
.4 VOICE FROM JAIL.
The voice in favor of a third term
though not from the tombs, nevertheless
comes ringing from behind the prison
bars, and Bishop Haven is not tbe first
to make the nomination. Gen. M'Don
ald, the whiskey revenue thief, and
Grant's pet now in jail for his crimes,
nominates Grant in his cell, in the fol
lowing strong language:
"Gen. Grant is one of the best and
purest men this country ever produced.
There is no man for whom I have more
admiration than for him. Grant will be
elected for a third term as sure as I am
now in this jail. He is the man for the
times, and the people intend to keep
him where he is."

Tyrone, Pa., December 31.—The Asso
ciated Press was shamefully imj>osed
upon, and through it, the leading jour
nalaof the country, by a bombastic report
of what purported to be the proceedings
of a Labor Reform Convention held in
this place on Wednesday last. It was
represented that one hundred and thirs
ty-two representatives, delegates from
various States were in council, and pass
ed resolutions callings national conven
tion at Pittsburg; another instructing the
Legislature as to its duties; another in
favor of a direct election of President by
the people; another against aid to the
Texas Pacific Railway, and several others
regulating such little matters as curren
cy, national debt, resumption, and the
management of public highways. When
the Eastern daily papers reached here
with the pretentious proceedings, our
citisens were surprised to learn that such
an important body had come, delibera
ted and left without observation. Upon
inquiry I found that the "Junior Sons of
Seventy-six" had been here in small
numbers, but no Labor Reform Conven
tion can be traced out, unless it was held
in a garret or cellar. I found twenty
five names registered at our hotela from
Pittsburg, Harrisburg, New York,Clear
field, Phillipsburg and lioncadale. If
these were tlie one-third of one hundred
and thirty-two delegates here for any
purpose, they were auccesaful in being
invisible, and they must have fed on air.
Mr. boon, editor of the labor Reform
Tribune, waa here, and a few peripatetic
adventurers in politics, but tbey were
here, as at home, without following.
From all cities and towns we see ac
counts of firing salutes, ringing of
bells, illuminations, bondfires, parades,
Ac., on New Year's eve—the opening of
the centennial year. Centre Hall kept
pace with the rest of towgs, in ringing
in the centennial year. *
A man in New York hung himself by
accident a few days ago. He merely
tried it to see how hanging felt. He
stood upon a greasy boa, slipped
noose over his head, and unfortunately
slipped from the slippery box. He will
not be at the Centennial.
A despatch from Salt Lake City, dated
Dec, 31, says: There has been a heavy
fall of show here for the past few days.
The enow is now twelve feet deep on a
level at Alta City, and no mails have
been received from there during the past
week. The Central Pacific train from
the west was ten hours late at Ogden
yesterday.
Because we are lucky enough to have a
fresh cow, the Lewisburg Chronicle calls
us a bloated bondholder. Pitty for him
there are 53 miles 'tween us, we'd set up
the cream.

that he (Spencer', dining the election of

He brought the evils of wai upon the
people; cau-ed them in lire their homes

He corrupted United States official*

He caused men to be appointed to sine

Fustolti, a* and Revenue ottlee*, with the
intent and understanding that while pi
otlice they would not be required to ren
der service to the Government, but
would get their pay,and while so jiaid
they would employ their time in secur
ing pledges of votes and infiuence to re
elect lum to the United State* Senate.
He paid and caused to be |etid, money
to members of the Court House Assembly
to secure their votes.

Hind.*,caused a member of that body to
he drugged and almost killed to prevent
hi* attendance. He dealt iu United Sta
tes office* as iu merchandise to secure
money ami gaiu vote* for Senator.
Hi* managers, with his concurrence,
caused a State Senator, for a money con
sideration, to break hi* pledge of honor
to another Senator, having pre-arranged
a scheme thereby to secure a seat in the
United StAtes Senate through lii* said
manager*. He procured the presiding
officer of the Senate to connive at this
iiaud and to rule iu violation of all par
liamentary law ami usage so a* to unseat
a Senator elected by the people and seat
iu hi* place a partisan of Spencer, w ho
was not elected by the people and who
hail no certificate of election. He caus
ed to l>e tilled the lobby of the Senate
with artned retainer* to overawe Sena
tor* and sustain bv force and violence
what he had ai hieved by fraud. He used
hi* power and influence and money.
He contracted through Id* position as
Senator to deluuch men iu otlice and
out, so that iu his conduct he was work
ing evil continually.
The report was received and ordsred
printed with evidence and the commit
tee given time to prepare a memorial to
the I'uited State* Senate against Spen
cer's further occupancy of his seat in
that bodv.
The report was signed by the whole
committee on which both parties were
represented.
One of the things that Republican pa
pers do not tell their readers is that the
Democratic congress intends to reduce
the expenses of the government some
forty millions less than last year. It is
proposed to cut down expenses every
where. The army is to be reduced to
15,000 men, which alone would save
sa,<*lo,ooo. When the country is nearly
bankrupt, business is at a stand still,
working men art* on the verge of starva
tion, and everybody is economising, it
is right that the government should also
be saving of the people's money, and
thus reduce taxation.
Brother Moody misled a rare chance
when he got Boas Grant on his platform
at last Sunday evening's revival meet
ing in Philadelphia. Having managed
to put biai there, he ought to hare pre
vented his escape without repentcnce.
He made a personal uppesl to Grant, but
it was one which could not affect such a
man. lle ought to have addressed him
on the danger of his career, explained to
him the vile nature of the peculiar sins
in which he indulges, warned him ofthe
penalty of his evil ways, and implored
hiin to repent and lead a new life.
Brother Moody should have asked Grant
as he often asked other people, to kneel
down while being prayed for ; he should
then have asked hiin to stand up while
Brother San key sang with him; he
should then have made him show him
self directly to the congregation; he
should next have called on him to make
public confession of his long-continued
wickedness; he should have kept up
this sort of thing, alternately appealing
to him, praying for him, singing with
him, and displaying him, till the hard
ened sinner was laid low. It would
doubtless have taken Brother Moody a
longtime to describe the various sins of
Grant, even if he only mentioned them
in groups; and it would have taken
Grant a very long time to make such a
confession as is required from penitents.
But even if the meeting lind lasted
through the whole of Sunday night and
passed into yesterday, the audience
would have remained together; and if
Grant had been converted, the consum
mation would have been worth all the
trouble. — Run, 21 ult.
The resolution pending in the House
as offered by Randall, calling on the
Secretary of the Treasury for the corres
pondence and documents relating to the
Whisky Ring, will be pressed to a vote
when the House reassembles, and it is
l>elieved will be passed. The objection
which has been made that to furnish
these documents would embarrass the
Government in its pending prosecutions
and inquiries, is offset by the fact that
the Secretary will not be required to sub
mit any of that nature. The correspon
dence which the department it is said is
not averse to submitting is rich with im
portant revelations. Tlio latest Chicago
story that the Government has promis
ed immunity to all of the illicit distillers
who will turn States evidence lacks con
firmation here.

THE WEEKLY SUN.
1776. NEW YORK. 1876.
Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is the
Centennial year. It is also the year in
which anOppoeilion House o( Representa
tives, the first since the war, will ba in
powarat Washington ; and tha vcr of the
twenty.third election of a President of the
United State*. All of theee events are
sure to be of great inleraal.and importance,
•specially tha two latter : and all of them
and everything connected with them will
b* fully and troshly reported and expound
ed in tne Sun.
The Opposition House of Representa
tives, taking up the line of iaquiry opened
years ago by the Sun, will sternly and dil
igently investigate the corruptions and
misdeeds of Grant's administration ; and
will, it is to he hoped, lay the foundation
for a new and better period in our natural
history. Of all this Tho Sun will contain
complete and accurate accounts, lurnisbing
its readors with early and trustworthy in
formation upon those absorbing topics
The twenty-third Presidential election,
with the preparations far it, will be memo
rable as deciding upon Grant's aspirations
for a third leriu e! potytr and plunder, and
still more as deciding who pbalj he the
candidate of the parly of Reform, and as
electing that candidate. Concerning all
these subjecU, those who read The Sun
will have the constant means of being
thoroughly well Informed.
Tha Weakly Sun, which has attained a
circulation of over eighty thousand copies,
already boa its readers in every Slate and
Territory, and w trqsl tbft the year 1876 '
will see their numbers doubted. Jt will
continue to pea thorough newspaper. All
the general news of the day will be found 1
in it, condensed when unimportant, at full
length when of moment: and always, wa 1
trust, traated in a clear, interesting and in- 1
atructive manner. <
It is our aim to make tho Weekly Sun
the best family newspaper in tha world,
and wo thai! continue to give in its col
umn* * Urge amount of miscellaneous
reading, such 1 !•, poems, sci
entific intelligence and ugrik'ulfural infor
mation, for which we nre not able to make
room in our daily edition. The agricultu
ral department especially it one of its
prominent features. The fashions are reg

sketched tome of the terrible tuilering*
and privations of the great Apostle in the
Gentiles, w hick neverilielett i ounied at hut

and eternal weight of glory," ~f which
I'aul speaks in bis First Kpistle totheCor-l

Mr Moody preached from the words
"Lav up for yourselves treasures in henv*
en , in an iniuiiction with another l-n of
similar import: "Net your affections on!

been a Christian at well as being rich, but

for their children are doing the worst

Every Christian man must do something
for the Saviour, and than he will have
tieasures in heaven. Our treasures are in;
heaven if our hearts are there. Our treat- j
ure that is laid up for us there is rest. Wc
don't want talk about resting here. It it

that money could buy. The greatest mit

"No." that little boy says, "you don't
quote that rigbt" "Greai is your reward
in heaven." AAd if the Lord calls it
great, depend upon it. tha reward will be
great indeed. Christ did nut receive hon
or from men ; he would not take it; there
fore we ought not to cxpeel it, otpcvialll
when it is worth to little, for tnen will
boaor you to day and slab you to mor

Thtn Mr. Moody drew a graphic word
pu ture of I'aul's trials which he called
"light afflictions," and of the honor which
he has been enjoying for eighteen hun
dred years in heaven where ''wa. if faith
ful, witi see the great warrior by and by."
The conclusion of Mr. Moody's sermun
was very forcible. Illustration after illus
tration. each more striking than the last,
brought home the truth lo the heart- oi
the listeners, and many were affected by
the urgent appeal and invitation to so live
el at last to enter upon the joys of heaven.
The opening prayer at last evening s
service was offered bv He*. B D. Thome*.
I> li., pastor of the Fifth Baptist ( buret
ot this city : and among those present on
the platform were Hoa Thos. 11. Powers,
Hon. Geo H Troutman, President of the
Central National Rank ; Rav. Dr Nichol
son. of the Reformed Kpiscepal Church,
and Dr. J. C. Thomas, a minister of the,
Society of Friends, from Baltimore. It
was a damp and unpleasant night, hut lb*
audience numbered over seven thousand]
persons.
At the noon prayer meeting to-day, af
l*i tha request* had be.in read, Mr.
Grave*, an evangelist of the itapl t I
Church, well-known in New York and
othar cilia*, led In prayer, remembering
each class of eases specifically, and earn
estly pleading for a Spirit-baptism on the
churches for which supplication had been
asked. Mr Moody read a letu-r from a
lady, who, although a member of* Chris-
I tian Church, was very unsatisfied about
, her spiritual condition, and sought advice
and ualp. He ;bco tl>ko to backsliders,
quoting largely trout lue Loo'* of Jeremi
ah the passage* most suited to their case,
a* Inviting them back to the Saviour
whom they have forsaken. 1 used l
think, years ago, he said, that it would;
have been a grand thing to live in the
days of the old prophet* ; out when I got
'jo know my Bible better I changed ray
' view*. Alf ay; when a great prophet war
raised up in Israel, it was bacaut* the na
tion had forsaken God —they were thue* of
, backsliding, so that very much of prophe
cy was specially suited to persons who, af
ter being really converted, had forsaken .
the fountain ol living waters. I neverj
knew a happy backslider. Tha scripture 1
is) l, ' Jinow. therefore, it is an evil thing, I
i and bitter that you htvo left the Lord.
> your God." ' W'th tlsipe own wjeked-
I ness," say* God, '1 will destroy thee."
r \\ hen the Jews entered upon the promo
ted land they were told to give the land a
•' rest every seven years : but they refused
,to do this, and disobeyed God. Then
jcamo captivity For four hundred and
- ninety year* they had neglected God's
command, and the seventy year* of Sab
baths which they bad neglected to ob

they would notgiri, thai.:. Lie J look them
by force. There was alwajrs forgivunoa*
for the repentant backslider "Only ac

will forgivo .-" and He is more willing to
receive us than we are to return to Him.
