The Newa.
Mr. Clarkson, charged with the delivery
of the Lecompton Constitution arrived at
Washington on Saturday night, and imme
diately placed it in the hands of the Presi
dent. The Constitution is accompanied by a
letter from Gen. Calhoun, President of the
Convention.
The Washington correspondent of the
Press, under date of Jan. 31st, says:
" Hons. Jas. B. Clay of Kentucky, John
B. Raskin of New York, and Win. L. Dew
art of Pennsylvania, after a consultation of
Democratic members, have been selected as
a committee to wait upon the President to
morrow (Monday), and inform him that the
Northern Democrats, with a few exceptions,
are opposed to the admission of Kansas into
the Union, as a State, under the Lecompton
contrivance of Calhoun and others, which
has just reached here in an official form.
The President has had his message pre
pared and ready for transmission to Con
gress for more than a week, but it may be
that the unmistakeable signs given by mem
bers of the House of Representatives will
change the programme which has been mark
ed out. It cannot be known what will be
the termination of the interview between
these Democrats and the chief of.a Demo
cratic Administration. However, it is a step
which is looked upon as leading to beneficial
results. At least, good and fair men cannot
but hope it will."
The Independence correspondent of the St.
Louis-.R roublican gives some additional items
of intelligence from the Utah army.
- :Captain Marcy, -who had been despatched
to New Mexico for salt, was expected back
by the middle of April.
- ,
As soon as he arrives and the transporta
tion has been effected, Col. Johnston intends
making an effort to enter Salt Lake city.—
COI. Johnson's impression, from the demon
strations made by the Valley troops, was
that a fight would result.
The San Francisco News Letter, of Janu
ary 5, has the following strange item :
" The bodies of 300 dead Chinamen are
now lying on one of our wharves, nicely
packed and directed, ready for shipment to
their long home in China. The freight mon
eyon this lot is $7,500."
Hon. F. P. Stanton has written a letter ad
dressed "to the people of the United States,"
stating facts in vindication of his course in
Kansas, and explaining the results of the act
for which he was removed from the office of
Secretary of that Territory.
He declares that he- accepted the office,
which he had not solicited, believing that the
President would adhere to the policy deliber
ately agreed upon between him, his Cabinet,
and Governor Walker. ,
On his arrival in Kansas, in April last, he
bad an imperfect and erroneous idea of af
fairs there. He had thought slavery the only
cause of dissension and difficulty ; but he
ebon found the people dissatisfied with the
whole local government, and denying the va
lidity of the existing laws.
Gov. Walker went among the people, and
strove to induce them to decide all questions
at issue by the peaceful struggle of the bal
lot-box. It was too late to induce the people
to go into the June election for delegates to
the constitutional convention, for it was well
known that half the counties were disfran
chised by the omission of the registration re
quired by law. Besides this, the great cen
tral fact was an utter want of confidence in
the wholq machinery of the territorial gov
ernment.-
Gov. Walker induced the people to vote at
the October election. Gov. Walker found it
his duty to reject fraudulent returns. Against
this the minority loudly protested, and un
dermined him with the Administration.
The constitutional convention was hostile
to, Gov. Walker, and resolved not to give the
people the control of their own affairs. it
made the Oxford fraud the basis of its appor
tionment of representatives, giving a prepon
derance to the counties on the Missouri bor
der. The President of the convention hur
ried on the election in mid-winter, when the
people could not well go to the polls. Thus,
again they were disfranchised.
The people saw and felt this fraud, and
called on him (Mr. Stanton) to summon an
extra sessivi of the Legislature to protect
them against the wrongs contemplated by
the constitution. Had he not complied, there
would have been collision and bloodshed.—
The result hag shown that the apprehensions
of the people were well founded. Enormous
frauds have been again perpetrated at the
precincts of Oxford, Shawnee and Kickapoo.
The President had no right to interfere
with the discretion given by the organic act
to the Governor to call an extra session.
The result of this extra session is, that the
real will of the people in regard to the Le
compton constitution is fully known. This
affords the Democratic party an opportunity
to defend the true principles of constitutional
liberty, and to save itself from disastrous di
vision and overthrow.
If Congress will heed the voice of the peo
ple and not force upon them a goverment
which they have rejected by a vote of four to
one, the whole country will be satisfied, and
Kansas will quietly settle her own affairs
without the least difficulty and without any
danger to the Confederacy. The southern
States, which are supposed to have a deep in
terest in the matter, will be saved from the
supreme folly of standing up in defense of so
wicked and dishonest a contrivance as the Le
compton constitution. The moral power of
their position will not be weakened by a
vain and useless defense of wrong, when it is
perfectly certain they will gain nothing even
by success in the present attempt.
Mr. Stanton concludes with au appeal to the
deliberate judgment of the people to deter
mine wether he has not chosen the only hon
orable course which the circumstances allowed
him to pursue.
The Fanny Fern, bound from St. Louis to
Pittsburgh, with 400 tons of produce,ls cab
in and 20 deck passengers, exploded her boil
ers eighteen miles below Cincinnati, at two
o'clock on Thursday afternoon last. Fifteen
lives are reported lost, including Capt. Wood
ward, several deck hands, firemen and three
ladies. The boat took fire and burned to
the water's edge, when she sunk.
An important Law Case
The following important cases were tried
at January term, last. We copy report of
the trials from the American.
" The suit of the Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania for the use of the School Directors
of Walker township, against Faries Leberd
and others, was tried in our Court last week.
It was a scire facias upon a judgment entered
on a tavern license bond under the act of As
sembly of 1858, entitled " an act to regulate
the sale of intoxicating liquors."
The principal obligor had been convicted
of selling liquor in violation of the Act of
1854, commonly called the Buckalew law,
whereupon the District Attorney entered
judgment on the bond, and issued a scire fa
cias quare executio non, to which the defend
ants pleaded payment, with leave to give the
special matter in evidence. At the trial, the
defence set up was, that the bond was mere
ly a security for costs, and the costs of the
prosecution having been paid by the defend
ants, the bond was not forfeited ; or if for
feited, remained as a security for costs that
might accrue on subsequent convictions. The
plaintiffs contended that the conviction caused
an absolute forfeiture of the bond, and that
the whole penalty was recoverable for the
use of the proper school district, and relied
upon the 10th, 28th and 31st sections of the
Act of 1856 as sustaining this view.
The Court instructed the jury to find for
the plaintiffs. Verdict for the plaintiffs for
$5OO.
The case was tried for the plaintiffs by Dis
trict Attorney Cremer and A. W. Benedict,
Esq., and for the defendants by Messrs. Scott
& Brown.
The case of the Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania for the use of the School Directors
of Shirleysburg Borough against J. G. Light
ner and others, was like the above, with the
exception that the conviction was for a viola
tion of a store license bond under the Act . of
1856.
The defence was the same as in the above
case, with the addition that the bond was not
executed agreeably to the Act of Assembly.
The Court instructed the jury to find for
the plaintiffs. Verdict for the plaintiffs for
$5OO.
Cremer, District Attorney, and A.
W. Benedict, Esq., for the plaintiffs ; A. P.
Wilson, R. B. Petriken and D. Blair, Esqrs.,
for the defendants.
These cases are new and important, and
will - probably go to the Supreme Court for
final adjudication."
BUSINESS AT PITTSBURG.-A correspondent
of the Press, under date of Jan. 28, says:
" Pittsburg having been unusually dull
since September, has resumed. her good hum
and the dirty face, and a hundred rolling
mills and factories will soon gladden the
hearts of thousands by giving employment
to the honest laborer and mechanic, and by
stimulating business generally. In another
fortnight the "Birmingham of America" will
be sending her products to all parts of this
great country.
We have entirely subdued the panic—a
task easily accomplished because of its ficti
tious character—and our banks are all able
to resume specie payments. But three of
them are in a state of suspension; the Bank
of Pittsburg and. the Iron City continue to
pay specie, and the Merchants' and Manu
facturers' Bank, after a suspension of ninety
days, and a clear riddance of its unworthy
officers and a portion of its directory, has• re
sumed, and is• speedily repining the confi
dence of the public. During the late finan
cial embarrassments, and while hundreds in
every other city in this and foreign countries
were driven to bankruptcy and ruin, the ac
tual capital employed in conducting our busi
ness machinery saved us. No failures here
were eaused by the panic. How forcibly
these things argue that business done upon
a substantial basis will stand. the test, if it
does not remove the causes, of all financial
revulsions
Don't say "Hard Times."
The following good advice from the War
ren Ledger, may be profitably read by this
community : " Don't say " hard times,"—
no, don't say it, even if you really believe
the times are hard. The truth is not to he
spoken at all times, and perhaps this is one
of the occasions referred to. If you• meet a.
man on the street and ask him what 'the
news is, the invariable answer is,' "Oh, noth
ing but hard times." This is a great mistake.
It is not news ; it is an old story, and one
that is nearly worn threadbare ; and it is
quite time that people should learn some
other way of passing the compliments of the
day. It never yet made " good times" by
people crying "hard times" continually; it
only aggravates the disease. Let the people
of etown all say that the Asiatic cholera is
in the vicinity, and we will wager a " Kos
suth" that a score or less will die with the
genuine "gripe." It is all nonsense, and
worse than nonsense to keep up this everlast
ing cry of "hard times." If you cannot say
anything more encouraging, just put your
head in a patent self-sealing can, or cover
your mouth with. shoemaker's was; anything
to put a stop to such senseless bleating. Just
change the tune, and say "the times are cer
tainly improving," and our word. for it, you
will feel a great deal better, and your neigh
bor better and act better; and in a
short time the improvement will be abun
dant. All that is now wanted to restore busi
ness to its proper place is confidence, and a
doleful dismal whining on the part of peo
ple generally, never yet produced that, and
never will. Let us unite in singing,
"There's a good time coming, boys,
Wait a little longer."
FIRE—HEAVY Loss.—We learn from the
last Shirleysburg Herald, that, "On the
morning of the 23d ult., the Mill of Thomas
E. Orbison, at Orbisonia, was discovered to
be on fire. So rapid was the progress of the
flames, that but a small portion of the con
tents could be removed. The Mill was con
structed for a Clover Mill, Bark Mill andSu.'
mac Mill, under one building, and contained
a large amount of stock at the time the fire
occurred. The entire loss is supposed to ex
ceed $3OOO. Besides the building, machinery,
&c., Mr. Orbison is also the greatest loser in
stock consumed. Etnier & Burket lose about
$4OO. Some others lose small amounts. The
fire was discovered about 5 o'clock in the
morning. It was with great difficulty that
the Merchant Mill was saved, it being only
about sixty feet distant—it was several times
on fire, but was timely extinguished through
the energy of the citizens. We are not
aware that any of the property consumed
was insured. The fire is supposed to be the
work of an incendiary. The building was
frame.
PRICE OF PRODUCE IN TUE WEST.-By a let
ter received recently from a friend in Fulton
county, Illinois, we find the price of pro
duce in that region to be as follows -.--Wheat
35 to 40 cents per bushel ; Corn 15, Oats 12k,
Pork, $3 to $3 50 per hundred. We imagine
some of our Huntingdon county farmers
would not like such prices.
Dar' Col. GOM. MORRISON, Conductor on the
B. T. R. R., has been appointed Route
Agent on said road. This appointment will
add greatly to the convenience of business
men on the route. And is a " fat take," we
hope, for Gom, who is " all sorts of a fellow,"
and deserving of the honor.
THE WEATIVER AT THE Somni.—Green peas
and new potatoes are abundant in the vicin
ity of New Orleans. On some plantations
the orange trees are putting forth their blos
soms, and in others are yielding an abun
dance of fruit. The Picayune acknowledges
the receipt of a mess of ripe strawberries
grown in the open air without the aid of
glass. A. letter from Florida says :—"Peach
trees are in full bloom, and all kinds of trees
are out like May. People are very busy
gardening." In Mobile roses and all kinds
•
of flowers are in full bloom.
HUNTINGDON COUNTY.—From the Auditor
General's Report on the finances of the Com
monwealth, we compile the following rela
ting to our county:
Money paid into the State treasury.
Tax on Real and Personal estate, $11,074 25
Tavern Licenses, 776 25
Retailers' Licenses, 857 80
Brokers' Licenses, 28 50
Billiard Room Licenses, 14 25
Restaurants, Beer Houses, &c., 103 00
Patent Medicine Licenses, 19 00
Militia Tax, 83 16
Millers' Tax, 19 95
-
•
Tax on Writs, Wills, Deeds, &c., 303 77
Collateral Inheritance Tax, 1,005 00
Canal Tolls taken at Huntingdon, 10,949 31
To incorporate the Huntingdon
Gas Company,. 10 00
Total, $25,844 24
Money Received
Common Schools, $2,068 10
fl SPECIE HOARDED.—There never was a
period in the history of our country, When so
much specie was hoarded as at the present
time. Indeed it is contended by the New
York .Evening Post that the specie - ziw the
- United States exceeds the bank-notp-chttda
tion. It is estimated that there is' ibout
$200,000,000 of coin outside of the banks and
in the hands of the people. The - amount in
the Banks is estimated at $60,000,000, mak
ing a total of $260,000,000. The Secretary
of the Treasury puts down the bank note cir
culation at $214,000,000. Thus it appears
that the specie exceeds the bank-note circula
tion to the amount of $46,000,000. The
country is certainly rich. There is an abun
dance of money. Confidence is all that is
wanted to bring it out.

MONDAY, Feb. 1. JUNIATA.
lair The New Orleans Bulletin., speaking
of recent suicides, says ;
. "The extensive adulterations of liquors
which have taken place-of late years, act up
on the brain and destroy the proper func
tions. Physicians and others know well that
the brain is liable to disease, almost as much
so, perhaps, as any other organ, and when it
is so, the individual is—crazy 1 and does not
know 'what he is doing. The brain of the
drunkard, it is well known, will take fire,
emitting a bluish light, and causing a smell
like burnits alcohol. We are strongly in
clined to think that most suicides by males
are referable to this as the primary cause.
Horrible Murder at the P6or HoUse by
an Insane Man.
[Vroni the Greensburg (Pa.) Republican.]
On Monday afternoon a horrid murder was
perpetrated at the county poor house, by an
insane Irishman named Dennis. The victim,
a child, whose mother's name is Fritz. Den
nis is the man who some two years ago was
tried in our court for arson, in burning the
barn of a Mr. Neel, in Derry township. lie
was acquitted on the ground of insanity, and
was ordered by the court to be confined at
the poor house, as a man unfit to run loose
in society. He has been an inmate of that
institution over since, evidently insane ; he
would lie in bed for about a week, and then
for a like period keep on his feet most of the
time without exhibiting any indication of vi
cious habits.
On Monday last a young lady who teaches
a private school in this borough, at the ear
nest request of a number of her pupils, visit
ed the poor house, accompanied by some
twenty of her largest scholars. The steward,
Mr. Hammer, accompanied the lady and her
school children through a portion of the
building, when he was called into the office
on business. The lady visited the basement
of the building, and in the long hall met
Dennis, who showed evidence of excitement
at the children—he appeared to - want to
shun them—rubbed his hands and shied off
to one side. After passing the children he
proceeded to the hall door where the child
aged between one and two years was sitting.
He stared at it a moment, then took it by
the feet and struck its head with all his force
on the door sill, knocking out its brains and
killing it instantly.
Another insane man named Miller, who
was near at hand, sprung at him to seize
him, but be failed to secure him. Dennis
then ran out of the yard, met one of the
male inmates going towards the house, struck
him on the head with a stone, inflicting a se
vere wound. He ran down the road near
where some inmates were chopping wood.—
Mr. Hammer who was in pursuit hallooed to
them to stop Dennis. They attempted to do
so, when he ran violently against one of
them, throwing him down and breaking his
collar bone. Before Dennis had recovered
his feet, Mr. Hammer caught him, a struggle
ensued, Hammer struck him two or three
times with his fist, when assistance arrived.
The murderer was secured in chains.
SURPLUS WHEAT IN CANADA :- The To
ronto Colonist, in a statistical article on the
grain crops of Canada West, states that the
surplus wheat on bands is not less than
8,000,000 bushels, and that no facilities ex
ist, unless they are afforded by the Grand
Trunk Railway, for the exportation of this
produce. Hitherto, Canada has had pur
chasers for its surplus wheat in every fron
tier town of the United States, and, indeed
purchasers in the New England States and
New York have regulated prices in Canada;
but this year the United States itself has a
surplus crop, probably better saved than that
of Canada. This occurrence, so fortunate for
the United States, is the means of locking up
in Canada for the present some two millions
sterling worth of produce, for which there
seems to be no outlet.

SAruankr EvExixo, Jan. 30.—Breadstuffs are without
much alteration, but the market generally - is dull, and the
price of Flour, under a limited demand, rules in favor of
the buyers-350 bbls. Ohio extra and 400 bbls. superfine,
only having been sold at a price kept secret, supposed to
be about $4.87@55 for the former, and $4.50 per bbl. for
the latter, at which rates they aro freely offered. The re
tailers and bakers are buying within the range of $4.50l
$5 and $6 per bbl. for common to clear brands, extra and
fine familly Four, according to brands and quality ; but
the demand is light. Corn Meal is held at $3 per bbl. fur
Pennsylvania Meal, and very dull. Rye Flour is lower,
and a small sale is reported at $3 per bbl, which price .1 , 4
generally refused. Wheat meets with a limited inquiry
only, and prices arc lower, with sales of 1,500 bushels good
red at $1.12@51.14, and 1,800 bushels fair to good white at
$1.23 ®sl;32, mostly at $1.30. Corn is not so plenty, but
the demand has fallen off, and about 3,500 bushels new
yellow only have been sold at 5037 2 '&53c, chiefly at the lat
ter price in store. Oats are dull at 33c for Delaware and
34c for Pennsylvania. Rye is steady and commands 70c.

each, (which are cheap at that price,) and they throw in a
gift or prize with each Pencil, worth' froth $2 up to $5, $lO,
$l5, $2O, $25, $3O, $5O, $7 - 5, $100,..00, and $5OO. Don't
cry out, , 4 Humbug I Lottery I" It's no such thing. Tho
Pencils are sold at their cash value, and all the profits over
the first cost are thrown into the gifts, which actually cost
the purchaser nothing. The prizes are distributed on a
simple plan of drawing, which would take too much room
to explain, but - which has never failed to give complete
satisfaction. We have drawn and sent to purchasers 183
gold watches of various prices, 74 purses of gold dollars,
238 gold lockets, 850 geld chains, and a corresponding
number of other prizes, within two months.
THERE ARE NO 111.AN'liS,
but every purchaser draws a prize Worth $'L certain, and it
stands thousands of chances to be a higher figure.
We want r good agent in every neighborhood through
out the ebuntry, to solicit purchasers, and any agent, to
be successful, must have a Pencil andprize to exhibit.—
We pay agents $1 cash for each purchaser he obtains, and•
the first person in .any neighborhotid who applies for a.
Pencil and gift, will receive the agency for that locality.—
Should an agent obtain a valuable prize to exhibit with
his Pencil, he Would have little difficulty in obtaining
scores of purchasers, and making it a paying business.

We ask nobody to send their money - till they know what
prize they draet. Any person wishing to try their luck,
can first send us their name and address, andwe will make
their drawing and inform them by return mail what prize
they drew, when they can send on. and take the Pencil and
prize, or not, whichever they,cheaso. We give this privi
lege only once to a purchaser. After the first drawing:ev
ery purchaser will he required to send in advance, through
the authoriied agent. We will send with each drawing
the number taken out, with full description of the plan of
drawing. Address C. E. TODD St CO.,
