THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL SEWS, &C.

DEAR GLOBE :—Have latterly been refresh
ing in the way of excursion to New York and
elsewhere—all very pleasantly done, but in
such hurry that upon subsiding into this Har
risburg sanctum, being rather tired, I some
how over slept the 13th, and so missed seeing
the comet.
But in quiet contrast to the turmoil of cit
ies and clatter of railroad and steamboat,
there were some few days passed among the
old neighborhoods of Chester—in which I
mote a thoroilgli drive of twenty miles over
the Brandywine Battle-ground.. The Bir
iningham Meeting-house, which had been
klsed as an hospital during part of the en
gagement, still showed the bullet-marks in
the shutters and other wood-work outside ;
but the floor, with its dark blood-stains, has
been sacrilegiously replaced with a new one.
sinee I had been there, eleven years before,
the grove-yard had received many to its mute
habitations. In that time, fifteen aged men
nnd *otoen had passed away—all of whom
well remembered the terrific scenes of Sep
tember 11th, 1777. My heart had burned
within me as we had talked together of other
years, and now I had wandered back from
the beach of the far Pacific to find, instead
of silvered heads and trembling tones, these
brief inscriptions above those who had car
ried hence their unwritten histories to the
Eternal Land.
Two O'CLOCK, AFTERNOON.
At this hour one week ago, I was loitering
:And Musing along the ground of the Paoli
Massacre. It is a quiet meadow slope, hid
away in the woods, and is owned by the
Chester County Volunteers, who there en
camp and have their annual parade. Then
for a little season, the merry bugle is heard
and the sunlight burnishes the military pa
geant; but the thronging thousand come and
go, and this sequestered spot is left again to
the wild bird and solitary pilgrim.
In one corner of the field, beneath the
shade of chestnuts, is the mound of the mur
dered men of Paoli, marked with an inex
pensive monument erected in 1817. Alack I
how history lies!—that asserts there were
three hundred perished here : but the monu
ment says fifty-three.. And on my way here
from the railroad station, stopping at the
Green. Tree tavern, I got two ancient men by
the ears with the mere asking their opinion
as to the buckwheat straw story. One took
bold ground, and averred that none but igno
rant old women had told it: while the other
maintained that there was nothing more cer
tain than that sixteen were so destroyed—
one of his uncles having been burned in the
stack. I incline to the buckwheat belief
myself, holding that Gen. Gray and his Hes
sians were mean and cruel enough to do
anything. The first half hour of my visit to
the mound was interrupted by the advent of
a tipsy gentleman, who insisted upon having
me acknowledge that in coming there I had
been " taken in," as there were finer and
costlier monuments to be seen elsewhere ;
but when rid of him, the squirrels, orioles
and I had it to ourselves in the Sabbath-like
silence of nature. After thinking of all that
we now know of the night of that fearful
•
surprise, I plucked a sprig of strawberry as
a memento from the mossy covering of the
brave comrades of Wayne, and left%them to
their, peaceful rest beneath the soft spring
wind.
'• How sleep the brave, who sink to rest
By all their country's wishes blessed?
When Spring, with dewy fingers cold,
Returns to dress their hallowed mould,
She there shall deck a sweeter sod
Than Fancy's feet have ever trod.
By fairy hands their knell is rung;
By forms unseen their dirge is sung;
And Honor comes, a pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay;
And Freedom shall awhile repair,
To dwell a weeping hermit there."
Among other varieties, I enjoyed two days
4:X " life on the ocean wave." Our good
ship was anchored over night, in thick fog
and rough wind, off the cliffs of New Jer
sey, with .all the passengers sick from being
"rocked in ye cradle of ye deep," except
your correspondent (who hasn't time to lose
in that way when he travels,) and a pair of
Teutonic friends who wore cased in India
rubber to afford their constitutions an oppor
tunity to stretch. The last day of our ma
rine experience, we had a silver sea and
hearts as light and free as the swift-winged
albatross.
Whilst in New York, I had the pleasure
of seeing young Edwin Booth, in his first en
gagement, and in the character of Richard.
He is a handsome young man with well
trained moustache, long curling black hair,
and all the electric genius of his father.—
Ah ! how the memory of that father came
back to me as I have sometimes seen him, at
the side-screen, nervously awaiting the mo
ment he was to tread the boards, a king,
self-merged in the enthusiasm of his high
art. I thought too of the last time I had
looked upon him. One balmy May morn
ing, twelve years ago, sauntering up Chest
nut street, Philadelphia, in company with
Buchanan Read, the poet-artist called my
attention to a wan, dissipated man wander
ing by with uncertain step. I did not know
him until he said it was Booth—he was so
worn and ghostly and different from the
royal and fiery Booth of the "mimic show."
I looked after him in sorrow ; for I knew
that; drunkard as he was, he was broken
hearted rather than debased with appetite.—
He had ones a well-loved child, in whom
centered his every hope and joy. The little
HARRISBURG, June 15th, 1857
boy sickened and died in his absence. He
had returned from a long journey to meet
an engagement in Baltimore, in the vicinity
of which town he lived. The letters an
nouncing the illness of his favorite little one
had failed to reach him as he traveled from
place to place—and it was before the days
of magnetic telegraphs. Deferring his visit
home, he remained in the city and went on
the stage in the evening ; it was not till
after the first act of _Richard that the intelli
gence reached him that his boy was dead
and buried. When the curtain went up for'
the second act, Booth was not to be found,
and the mnager was obliged to substitute
another play. On the next morning, his
friends becoming alarmed at his continued
absence, broke open the door of his room at
the hotel, and discovered him chattering over
the dead body of his child! In the insanity
of grief, he had left the theatre, hired a
horse, rode fifteen miles to the family vault,
and brought thence the corpse, and locked
himself alone with it in his room. How sub
limely terrible the picture of that grief-strick
en father, galloping at midnight over the
moonlit road, and bearing along, through
the streaming winds, the shrouded form of
his dead boy ! Ever after poor Edwin Booth
was a reckless man.
One afternoon in New York, looking into
the Directory, for the name of a friend, in
running my eye clown the page, I read.
"Max. Greene (segars) house 134, Avenue C."
Without considering the matter, I went forth
with to see who it was had embarked the
family honors in the segar trade ; arrived at
134, was admitted, and stood in the presence
of a wholesome-looking Russian—said that
he had been six years in America (thought
that our country would do for a new one)—
and insisted that his name was not a trans
lation, but that the Greenes were numerous
where he came from. He apparently was
as much surprised to see me out of Russia
as I was too see him in America. He had
been married four years to a Belgian woman
(not pretty, sorry to say,) and a promising
Max. Greene, Jr., did up the juvenile Scla
vonie for that interesting household. So
there are three of us, you perceive ; and it
may have been one of the others, and not
me, that your heavenly-minded cotemporaries
have been rapping themselves with over the
knuckles.
The Lutheran grave-yard in Harrisburg is
being "dug over," and the remains removed
to Mount Kalma Cemetery. It is a strange
sight through all the hours of the day, and
fur weeks as the work progresses, to see
from ten to twenty laborers in a row, digging
away at the embankment before them, and
as they proceed from grave to grave, turning
up, now the coffin of last year, and anon the
skulls and mouldering limbs that have lain
there half a century. There are several
Revolutionaries among these, who are to be
re-interred with the "honors of war." Sad
relics of humanity ! their City of the Dead
was too near the iron channels of commerce
for their rest to be undisturbed by the cough
of the locomotive and the living tide that
presses by.
As the subscription list of the Pennsylvania
Magazine, in Huntingdon and Blair counties,
already counts up into hundreds, allow me
the pleasure of saying to these friends, that
Number One will be in their bands ($1 for
6 mos.) on or about the 4th of July, sooner
or later—and would have been sooner, but
that our original plan has been " enlarged,"
&c. Yours in amity,
School Tax.
The following Act relative to the Tax for
School purposes, was passed at the last ses
sion of the Legislature. It will be seen that
the Tax to be imposed upon trades, profes
sions, and occupations, or on single freemen,
shall in no case be less than One Dollar,
heretofore it was but 50 cents.
A supplement to an Act for the regulation
and continuance of a system of education by
Common Schools.
SECTION 1. Be it enacted by the Senate
and House of Representatives of Pennsylva
nia, in General Assembly met, and it is hereby
enacted by the authority of the same, that it
shall be the duty of the borough and town
ship Auditors, in addition to the duties now
imposed upon them by law, to settle annually
the accounts of the School Treasurers of the
different school districts in this Commonwealth
and that either party may take an appeal as
is now provided for in other cases of settle
ment of accounts by township Auditors, Pro
vided, That this act shall not apply to the City
and county of Philadelphia.
SECTION 2. That hereafter the tax impos
ed by section thirty of the act approving May
eighth, one thousand eight hundred and fifty
four, for the regulation and continuance of a
system of education by Common Schools on
trades, professions, and occupations, or on
single freemen, shall in no case be less than
ONE DOLLAR.
Approved this twenty-first day of May one
thousand eight hundred and fifty-seven.

SLAVERY IN KANSAS.—WhiIe it is univer
sally conceded that slavery can never exist,
except temporarily, in Kansas, intelligent
southern men who have visited the territory,
are coming to the conclusion that it is of no
use to attempt introducing it there at all.—
A Virginia gentleman who was in Cincinnati
a day or two since, and had just returned
from Kansas, expressed the conviction which
he said was the opinion of all intelligent
southern gentlemen, that the territory is not
adapted to slave labor, as there is not fuel
enough in Kansas to keep the negroes from
freezing, In his own language, if five hun
dred negroes were introduced into the terri
tory, it would take at least two hundred and
fifty of them to procure wood to keep the
others warm. This conclusion is the result
of the gentleman's observation during the
past winter.
MAX. GREENE.
Rebukes the Shriekers
• The Herald of Freedom, published at Law
ience, Kansas, utters a scathing rebuke to
the Black Republican papers and croakers
who are constantly proclaiming Kansas will
be a slave State. We extract the follow
ing from the Herald, which by the way
is the organ of the Free State men of Kan-
eas.
THE CROAKING POLlCY.—Eastern journals
continue to predict that Kansas will be a
slave State, evidently with the intention of
preventing immigration to the Territory and
making it a slave State. If Kansas is not a
slave State it will not be the fault of dema
gogues throughout the North, who, we hon
estly believe, desire it to be made such that
their predictions may be verified. We say
again and again that Kansas can never be
come a slave State! Nineteen twentieths of
the population of the Territory, at the present
rate of increase from the North, are, or soon
will be, in favor of freedom, and will never
consent to be enslaved. It is an outrage upon
the people of Kansas, those who have borne
the fight in person in the past, to be thus mis
represented in the East, and through political
journals. Travel over the entire length and
breadth of Kansas, and it is almost impossi
ble to find a man of either party so lost to
truth as to express a doubt as to the ultimate
result.
The Defunct Know Nothing Party.
The gallant Democracy of Virginia, have
followed the example of their brethern of the
Keystone, and put the last nail in the coffin
of Know Nothingism, in their State. The
Richmond Whig, the able but mistaken ad
vocate of the proscriptive policy of "Ameri
canism," gives it the coup de grace, by advi
sing the party to disband, as it is powerless
to do any good. While this honest counsel
leads us a high estimate of his judgment, we
must confess we think him a little crazed
when he urges the resurrection of the Whig
party. Why the ghost of that defunct thing
could not be raised by all the political exor
cism ever imagined, and we doubt if spiritu
alism itself could ever obtain a responsive
rap, should its shade be summoned. All
that was good in the Whig party has sought
the congenial bosom of Democracy, which
watches its returned prodigal with parental
fondness, while its worser instincts are bat
tening on the swill troughs of Black Repub
licanism, or rioting with the harlotries of
Know Nothingism.
SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—As a son of Mr.
Jacob Reinhart, residing at Upton, Franklin
county, Pa., a lad about twelve years of age,
was passing along on the bank of the West
Conocoheague creek, his attention was attrac
ted to a boy, still less than himself, preparing
baits for his hook and line, as he was fishing.
When near him, the boy suddenly manifested
great alarm and fell back into the creek.—
Young Reinhart, with unusual presence of
mind, immediately procured a" pole, and,
thrust the end of it into the water where the
boy had fallen, and although he was so deep
in the water as to be out of sight, yet he took
hold of it, when young Reinhart drew him to
the shore. He had scarce got him out ere he
perceived the cause of the little fellow's alarm
which was that a large black snake, about
four and a half feet in length, had wrapped
itself tight around the boy's body. Fortu
nately, he had been using a knife for cutting
baits, which he dropped when the snake first
attacked him. Picking it up, young Reinhart
immediately applied it to his snakeship, to
release the little fellow from his coils; but so
tight was it fastened around his body that he
had to insert the blade flatwise between the
body of the boy and the snake, and then
turned the edge, and by a vigorous cut sever
ed it in two. In doing this, however, he did
note scape being himself bit in the finger, with
out, however, being much injured therefrom,
as the infatuation produced from the bite was
slight. The snake had wrapped itself nearly
twice around the body of the boy. This is
certainly a singular circumstance, and owing
to the presence of young Reinhart, the lad was
saved from a premature death.—Franklin,
Repository.
A GERMAN'S OPINION OF THE NEW CENT.-
Speaking of the new American small coin,
the Baltimore TReker says that "the idea of
making German silver do service as small
change is a good one, and originated in
Switzerland at the time of the introduction
there of the decimal system." The new
American cent, however, the Wecker thinks,
is not, either in design or execution, very cred
itable to our country. The unsightly hump
backed eagle will never soar high enough to
reach the throne of Jupiter. Images of the
kirq, , of birds are found in such variety upon
ancient coins, that one would suppose it easier
to select from among them a suitable device
than to concoct such a wretched original.—
A picture which is daily before the eyes of
the million should not be a deformity. The
impression of the dye is also too slight, and
after a few years' wear will be quite obliter
ated—a consummation, however, not partic
ularly to be deplored.
FlRE—Horrible Scene:—The most heart
rending spectacle that it has been our pain
ful duty to record, says the Steubenville, 0.,
Herald, occurred in Aleppo township, near
Steubenville, Ohio, on the 25th ult. The
house belonging to Mr. Peter Lyons, who re
sides in that township, was burned to ashes,
while he was in the field at work. The only
occupants of the house at the time of the fire
were Mrs. Lyons and a small child. Mrs.
Lyons having discovered the fire, which origi
nated in the upper part of the building, and
leaving the child lying on the bed, she went
to get some water, but on attempting to re
turn to the house she was prevented by the
flames. After making. several unsuccessful
attempts to effect an entrance in order to res
cue her child from the devouring flames, her
clothes unfortunately caught fire and were
literally consumed. When Mr. Lyons re
turned he found Mrs. Lyons lying a short
distance from where the house had stood,
almost in the agonies of death. The child
was not rescued, and nothing remained of it
but a few of its bones. Mrs. Lyons at last
accounts was not expected to survive but a
short time.
There are in the United States 1,217 dis
tilleries, in which 5,240 persons are employed ;
a, capital of $8,507,674 is invested. They
consume yearly 11,367,761 bushels of corn,
2,787,170 bushels of bar1ey,1,143,927 bush
els of rye, 56,240 hogsheads of molasses.—
They manufacture 42,461 920 gallons of ale,
41,364 gallons of rum, being about four gal
lons of liquor for every man, woman and child
in the country.

What is Beauty ?-4Dlfterent Views;
Different persons fix their admiration on
very different points of beauty. For this man
there is but one thing that touches him--
beauty of the eyes. For another man beauty
of forehead is the only charm. One looks for
beauty in a nose, a second for beauty of
hands, a third for beauty of feet. A Paris
journal playfully remarks:—ln the different
Quarters of Paris,
there are different stand
ards of beauty. In the First and Second
Arrondissement it is the quantity of crino
line. Among the market women of the Halles
it is freshness and good health. In the Stu
dent's Quarter, it is a tight white stocking
and a coquettish boot. In the Lorette Quar
ter, it is a complexion made with rice powder
and carmine. With the stout citizen it is a
turned-up nose and heart-ensnaring ways.—
In the Champs Elysees, it is in having plenty
of laces, a Cashmere, diamonds, and an ele
gant carriage. But quit Paris, and take a
bird's flight the world over.
Your Chinese admires only the form that
is fattest and coarsest; and the eyes must be
small and flat, the nose short and the ears
long. And his worship is kept for a defor
mity in feet uselessly small.
In Spain, the women perfume their hair
with sulphur, and soak their black curls in
strong lye to make them red.
Among the Indians of South America, it
is beautiful to have a flat face; and they near
ly smother their infants by sitting on their
faces when they are born, to flatten the fea
tures before they lose their softness. In an
other tribe, on that same continent, it is
beauty to have the leanest of lanthron jaws
and the thickest of legs.
The inhabitants of Macassar, paint their
teeth black, green and red; and the exqui
sites of that country extract their eye teeth
for the sake of inserting false ones of gold,
silver or pinchbeck.
In the Mariannes Islands, it is superb to
have black teeth and white hair. In Paris
it is quite the contrary!
Certain Tartar tribes embroider their vis
ages as the French stitch their boots. And
Arab beauties prick their lips till they bleed,
and then insert black powder in the wounds.
In Greenland, the youthful misses tattoo
their chins with colored radii spreading from
the under-lip downwards.
In India they carve upon their faces repre
sentations of flowers—ornamental scars.
And after all, what more of unreasonable
ness is there, in any of these fashions, than
in our European monstrosities—corsets, stain
ed eye brows, feet cramped to look small,
false representations of various kinds—if
large, laced unmercifully to appear small ;
and if small, the dimensions are increased.
with bran and. hoops to appear large 1 False
pretences all through, and no more excusable
than the practice of the South American In
dians, and quite as barbarous and unnatural.
GERMAN EMIGRANTS.—According to the New
York Abend Zietung, the emigration from
Germany this year promises to be larger
than ever. From all parts of Germany—
even from the parts that have never had the
western fever on before—from Pomerania,
Western Prussia and Brandenburg, parties
are making up to leave for America. Most
of the new comers are mechanics and farm
ers•—men used to working, and used to the
rewards and comforts which industry every
where secures to a greater or less extent.
A GOOD PLAN.—The keeper of a lager
beer saloon up in Toledo has hit on first rate
plan to put an end to bad debts. He posts
up over his bar, in conspicuous letters, some
thing like the following:
Gobbs owes this house 75 cents for beer.
Nobbs had better come and settle for them
beer and sausages. Total-45c.
Hobbs, why don't you be an honest man
and pay up for the beer? Total-99c
Bobbs owes this house $2,00. Gone away
Tam scoundrel. Total—s 2.
And so on. The plan is certainly a novel
one, and no doubt works well.

Also to Invalids _Retreat, Author of "Letters to Invalids,"
IS CO3IING I See following Card.
JUNE AND JULY APPOINTMENT.S
R. HARDMAN, PhysiCian.. for the_
disease of the Lungs, (formerly Physician to Cincin
nati Marine nospital 7 ) will be in attendance at his rooms
as follows :

Pittsburg, •June 19 Ai 24. •
Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma,'
Larryugittis and all diseases of the throat and lungs„ by
Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Bromton Hospita l ,
London. The great point in the treatment of all human
maladies, is to get at the disease in the direct manner.—
All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ
requiring relief. This is the important fact upon which
Inhalation is based. It' the stomach is diseased we take
medicine directly into the stomach. If the lungs are dis
eased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines are antidotes to disease and should
be applied to the very scat of disease. .Inhalation is the,
application of this principle to the treat inotit of thelungs, ,
for it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, `aria
tubes which lie out of reach of every other means of ad
ministering medicines. The reason that Consumption,
and other diseases of the lungs ' have heretofore resisted
all treatment has been because they have never been ap
proached in a direct manner by medicine. They were in- .
tended to act upon the lungs, and yet were applied to the
stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and yet,
they were so administered that they should only act con
stitutionally, expending their immediate and principal ac
tion upon the mail:fending stomach, whilst the foul ulcers
within the lungs were unmolested. Inhalation brings
the medicine in direct contact with the disease, without
the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is
so simple, that it can be employed by the youngest infant
or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or
terfere in the least degree with the strength, comfort, or
business of the patient.
Other Diseases Treated.—ln relation to the following (Us--
eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ea- ,
isting alone, I also invite consultation, I usually find them
promptly curable.
Prolapsus and all other forms of Female Complaints, Ir
regularities and Weakness. "••• • • -
Palpitation and all other forms of Heart Disease;•Liver
Complaints, Dyspepsia, and all other diseases of stomach
and bowels, &c.
All diseases of the eye and car. Neuralgia, Epilepsy,
