Cflvrns HALL, Pa., May 23.1878.
Gor liarl runft has appointed Hon.
.1. B. I .inn, of Bellefonte, secretary ef
the commonwealth, vice Quay alio got
the I'hilad. recordorahip. The senate
unanimously confirmed Mr. Linn's
nomination. The nomination is a gn.*l
or.e—Mr. Linn is a gentleman of the
highest integrity, and well qualified for
the important position.
The Morning Patriot says: urn.
James A. Beaver of Centre county is a
gallant soldier whose mutilated body
bears testimony to his devotion to his
country. He has a high and honorable
record in civil as well as military .te.
But then he does not belong to the
Cameron ring and vet some ol his friend--
fondly imagined that ho could bo nomi
nated for governor, in a Cameron con
vention. Snch a man might have me:
with recognition when the republican
prty existed in Pennsylvania. But t' e
republican party is dead and has been
succeeded by the Cameron rule.
This time it is a Williamaport bank.

Nice story, as always when a bank

The I'hilipsbnrg Journal earnestly
declares that its circulation is consider
ably larger than stated by us. Well, it
ought to know, ami we'll take it for
granted because it says so. We would
not do our Thilipsburg neighbors injus
tice —they are putting out a very fair
ffnd creditable paper, and we wonld
gladly see its list run into Qi* thous
ands.
Relative to the affairs of the defunct
Lewisburg Nat. Bank, the Journal says,
referring to the examination :
By Monday, howeTer, it was found
that matters were bad enough. Cashier
Sheller's account was discovered to be
overdrawn some S42,OX>. Of this amour'
about r24,000 was drawn since the Ist of
Mav, this year. On inquiring of the
cashier what he did with the money, he
declares his inability to explain the
matter ; attributes it to his mind not be
ing right since he received a fall some
months since.
So far as we could learn, the bank di
rectors have not yet decided what
coarse to take. The bank is solvent,
and may commence business with new
officers inside of a week. Another
meeting will be held shortly to decide
the matter.
Tbe Times staff correspondent, on 14
reporting tlie field of the rad state con
vention had this item.
The friends of General Beaver had c
caucus at the Bolton House, at which
less than a dosen were present. The\
appointed a committee to confer with
the supporters of Grow and Wickersham
and agreed to act with them in the fig'it
for the organization of the convention.
Putting these with all the others, ever
including r. possible ten or so for Kawle.
and it is plain that the whole number of
the opposition to Hoyt amounts to less
than a hundred.
Twenty-six exceptions were taken to
Judge Orvis' charge in the Turner case,
out of which only two were sustained
by the supreme conrt, and these upon
mere technical ground. This is bighlj
creditable to Jodge Orvis, whose deci
sions generally^tand the test of the
higher court.
The nomination of Cameron's man
Iloyt, did not go down without a growl,
and did not call ont much enthusiasm.
On the motion to make the nomina
tion of Hoyt unanimous Dr. Taylor, of
Chester county, took the floor and said
that while he did not want to disparage
Gen. Iloyt he wuatod to know whether
it was worth while to spend $15,000 or
$20,000 to oome here and hold what is
called a Convention when everything is
arranged before band- This expression
was greeted with loud applause showing
that while the Convention was carrying
out the plans of the managers the better
sense of the delegates revolted at so
humiliating a coarse. An effort was
mode to choke him off but he went on
to demand n right to be beard in the in
terests of the.Republican party. Loud
cries of "go on" followed, and be pro
ceeded to ask whether the Republican
party could afford to have its ticket
made out in the Locbiel Hotel. He Gil
ded that if the Republican party did not
want defeat, they must take new guides
Dr. Taylor, having said this much, was
proceeding to tell what he knew about
ring manipulations, when he was shut
off by a point of order. It is safe to say
that he reflected the sentiments of a
large number of the delegates, for upon
making iloyts nomination unanimous,
there was a very considerable number of
"noes."
The opposition to Cameronism is grow
ing in the republican ranks. It will be
difficult for them to throw off the yoke,
and the old Winnebago will sooner have
the party goto grass than to lose con
trol of the machine.
As the Reporter goes to press, this.

Congressman Wright of Luzerne coon-1
ty reported from the committee on pub
lic lands, a bill providing for the loan of,
♦SOO out of the public treasury to every
person who will settle on the public
lands. This is a wild scheme and ought
to be consigned to the shades of forget
fulness with its author. It is no part of
this government to support people.
Every one must sustain himself as long
as he is no pauper or criminal, aud the
simple duty of both state and federal
government is to protect him in his
rights to labor and support himself.

The late Mr. A. T. Stewart, Qu mill
ionaire, once came to the conclusion
that, although advertising was a MM
thing as a ladder, it wasot no great 1 cn
efit to him. ad his name sold the goods.
\s a test, one department only of his
establishment was advertuied. Its busi
ness overtopped that of the other* so
immediately anil so largely, that Mr
Stewart concluded that to get the full
power of his name it must appear in
printer's ink. His advertising uianaj
gers say, "from that time he advertised
more largely than ever in the papers.
Mr. Fly said at the last meeting of the
New York Farmer's Club that there are
iwo or three substances that are obnox
ious to the flea —lie does not like the
smell of them, or does not like to think
about them—and these are carbolic acid
and sulphur. If yon want a barn thor
oughly purged of weevil, or lice, or lien*
the best way is to fumigate it with sul
phur. But if von whitewash all around
the stAbles and posts of the yard with a
whitewash made by adding carbolicacid
to the litne, it will drive most of these
beas** away. AV ashing an animal thus
infested with carbolic soap-suds willgivt
relief.
However much ItMsia may desire to
recall the troops, they will only retire
after the Turks have surrendered the
fortresses and the English fleet ha* l-ft

Inasmuch as the putsu- tiding only
costs the couutry a tritle of
per annum we oau hardly expe, t to ex
tract much instruction or amusement
from the publications of the Govern
ment office, ami yet a few of these cheap
iitlle documents would make attractive
Summer reading. The Engineers' He
port, for example, is one of nine or ten
which go to make the consolidated re
port of the War Pepartment, and the
particular engineers who reported to the
second session of tbe XLI A th Congress
used up three octavo volumes, contain
ing 2,211 pages, before they succeeded
in telling all they know. These expert*
made accurate topographical surveys ol
every hir.l, bug and beast which Uiey
encountered while on professional duty,
ami returned estimates for dredging and
straightening out the crookedest ami
muddiest dialects which are ;>oketi by
aboriginal Americans, so that altogether
the informat'on furnishetf by tbe engi
neers is varied and surprising. We re
gret to add that several acres of the re
port will hardly be considered ofperma
nent value.

THE FRAUD INVESTIGATION.
Washington,. Jlay 13. —As soon as the
business of thu morning hgur was over
Mr. Clarkson I'otter rose to amir/licp
of privilege nn<i offered a preamble and
resolution for an investigation, not only
ir.to the frauds in Flotilla, hut intothose
alleged in Louisiana. It was deemed
best by those having the subject in
charge that Mr. Potter, who is a ready
debater, should present the resolutions.
The Republicans at once instituted a
store./ t;m" and finally, by refusing to i
vote, broke up & cnorntn, so that tlie t
House came to <! Jea/ilpcJ; and was ,
unable to puss the resolution#, air. ,
Potter, finding that the Democratic vole
fell below a quorum, hud no alter
native but to move an adjournment and
await the return; of the Democratic ub- t
aentees. These have been telegraphed c
ta jjpd are expected to-morrow. The f
Democrat*i. yoto is 156, which is ten ,
mora than a quorum, if all of the
Democratic members uro on l;an4 fhe
revolutionary game of tho Hepulilicana 1
will be broken up and the investigation
ordered. jc
The introduction of the resolution L
produced a decided sensation on the!
Itepublican side. The Republicans had
not anticipated that it would inculpate, *'
Governor S'oves, Minister to France, or,
Secretary John Kherman. They were,
therefore, t to ruise a question of fi
order tlmt the proposed investigation
was tint privileged. Mr. Poller held
that if nn inquiry into the title of the
President was not n question of prlvilege
the House could hardly be called Lipase
upon a more important question, wheth
er privileged or not. The Republican!
then wrangled a good deal over the
rights ufa Male iu the House,ami dual
ly settled down on General Garileld'i
n-sumption that the question was not
hum of privilege unless it was hiu-eil on
the Constitutions! nw< r of Impeach
jment, and that the Houseconhl not now
go Into the validity of tlit* President's
title, Mr. Mills, of Texas, fro in the
'Democratic side, contended that tin
whole question was settled iu the Forty
fourth Congress, and any attempt to in
tcrfere with that settlement by the
Forty-tilth Congress he regarded as an
■ usurpation of power. This declaration
j was loudly applauded on the Kcpuhil
can side. >1 r. Potter fully answered
I Mr. Mills hv saving that if ever there
' was a case in w Inch fraud should he in
quired into it was when that fraud had
been Mteees-fully accomplished The
Speaker then ruled the resolution* a*
privileged iu a very clear and concise
decision, and recognized .Mr. Potter L
move the previous questiou. The lie
publican side was prompt to appeal from
the decision, and Mr. Pottei was as
prompt to move that the appeal he laid
>n the table, and tlu* wa* carried by Ids
to It's. the vote wan a utru-t party vote
except thai General Puller and Repre
sentative* Port and Mitchell, Republi
can*, voted with the Democrat* to lay
on the table, and Mills, of 11 xas, and
Ituckner. of Missouri, voted with the
Republican* to set a-ule the S|-aker'*
ruling. The Republicans followed the.r
defeat by u succession of points or order
which were ruled out uml voted dor. r
till the House came to a direct vote < n
the previous question, when, pending hb
demand, they attempted, through Mr.
Hale, to amend the scope of the investi
gation *o a* to include Oregon and Mi ■
si*sippi and even South Carolina. Mr.
Potter said he would vote for a separate
committee for those State*, but would
non consent to include them in this ui
vestigntii n, though i;i the ease of .Mis-i -
sippi the tiepubbcans had already us
vestigated that Stale, while in Oregon
if there had been fraud, it had not ac
cotnphshed anvthing, a* in the case of
Florida. The bouse then proceeded to
vote on seconding the demand for the
previous question,and, on a viva voce
vote, allot the Republican* refused to
answer. A division was thun demand
ed, and Mr. Potter and Mr. Hale were
appointed teller*, aud still every He
publican but Mr. Jlule declined to
Vote.
The intention of the Republican* in
tins was evident, owing to the ;di*en
tees on the llemociatic side, and the re
fusal of the Republicans to vote, tlie
House was left without a quorum. Un
der the rules the usual call of the House
was made, and then Mr. Potter uioved
to adjourn, which was carried. If the
Republicans fail to earrv their points to- 1
morrow, as they will, they contemplate i
inaugurating in the Senate an investiga- ,
tion into the other State*.
On Hi. The select democratic -.nv .
advisory commituo mat immediately uf-!
tcr the adjournment of the house, to
take into consideration the pi> -cut xin
ditionoftbe Potter investigation resolu
tion. Several prominent democrahc
number- were invited to be present at
the con imitation.
Tho committee decided that the dem
ocrats should adhere to their dcteriuiu
ation to admit no amendment* to the
resolution, ami to persevere in the pres
ent courwo until th resolution shall be
adopted, and fu.Uic,- that public
basincsk be transUted meanwhile.

fear of death, should swerve them from
the path of duty.
II Ho Sobriety and Mortification.
John inured himelf to hardness ot life
Says J etui, What went ye out to tee? *
man in soft raiment, in a tilk ([own, with
a gold watch, spectacle*, cuff-button*, etc.

\ minitter should not ho a tenderling or

hut uterniy dec are the truth to all clate,
the 'armtr, mechanic, the beggar on the
dunghill, and the king on hit throne.
John -ebuked the adultery of Herod with-
out regard to rank or office. Lk. T : 19.
The Jewt desired the old prophet' to
preach with smooth word*, I*. 30. 10 , but
thie was not Jobn' atyle. A good shep
herd will d" juttifp to his iy>ck. Uj ili
do hi. duly in u>o lace uf danger and
death, knowing that ho who aont him, will
be a wall of fire around him.
ill Forbis Humility. John confessed
and denied not. saying, 1 am not the
Christ, but a poor minister of his, willing,
but not werthy. to do him service. Such
n spirit would, everywhere, commend the
mini-try of Christ to the people.
IV. His Office. What went ye out to
mw 1 a prophet, yea, more than a prophet.
Tho Savior commends his clear preaching
and revealing of f.hrist to tho people. The
ancient prophet* saw (Jbrist afar off. John
beheld him face to face i they prophesied
of him ; he pointed at him saying, This
in hk. And yet the moune-t evangelical
minister that preaches Christ come, is to
he preferred before nil tho old prophet*,
who prophesied of Christ t > come.
Reflections.
1. Christ i* the great Physician. In
John's day. the blind received their fight,
the lame walked, loner* were cleansed, the
deaf heard, the dead wore raied up, and
the poor had thag.>tpol preached to them,
lie is tho same 4'. Physician now He
wus thuu. What more'du vou want, read
er. —como to this yrrril Physician then.
He will heal you—Ho will save you.
Comf one, ooUK all.
2. There i a great contrast between
Christ and the world. Christ tay*, Blest
ed is he, whosoever shall not be offended
in me. First, the world take* offence at
the doctrine of Christ, e.g. Matt. 7: 18, 14.
Enter ye in at the strait gate, etc., and re
mark*, perhaps, why the preacher want*
to go to heaven alone I Who can believe
such a humiliating doctrine a* that of Ro
n*nUnc>T Secondly, at the life of Christ,
ili* humility, meekness, forgiveness, tub
mission, etc. Who tan iivif such a life a*
this? None but Christ himself. The
world say*: When you aro 'among the
wolves you inut howl with them. Rut
this i tho teaching of the Devil. St. Paul
say*. Rom 12:2, Be not conformed tolhi*
world, but be yn transformed by tho re
newing of your minds, that ye may prove
what i* that good, and acceptable and per
fect will of God.
3. Inconstancy i* a great evil. It is an
unfortunate affair with respect to both
world* to ho a resd shaken by tho wind, to
bo a hypocrite, to have tho form of j,od
lines* and deny the power thereof; foe the
hoito of the hypocrite shall parish.
i. There are too many soft raiment
Christians, effeminate and feeble Chris
tians, easily led astray from Christ and his
church. Away with your soft-raiment
men, they don't Hvail much.
5. The characteristics of u true Chris
tian nro: f. An inquiring mind, Art
thou lie i 'U. 4 stekiMj miml. • A
sighing mind, expressing Itself ahor Thiel
manner. lam blind, iaine, deaf, etc. 1
A Christlike mind,—having obtained help
from Christ, love manifests itself to our
neighbor, and a true Christian will teach
and instruct others and try to bring thonil
to Christ. J. T., Aaronsburg. 1
