POOR HOUSE AFFAIRS. —The American,
Journal, Shirleysburg Herald, and Directors
of the Poor, have been pitching into each
other for some time. As a committee has
been appointed, at the request of the Direc
tors, to iuvestigate the affairs of the institu
tion, we shall await their report and give it
to our readers at the earliest day.
THE PHILADELPHIA ELECTION.—The Elec
tion in Philadelphia, on the 4th inst., for May
or and Councilmen, resulted in a severe de
feat of the Democracy. Mr. VAUX for May
or, was defeated by over four thousand major
ity. The Councilmen are two-thirds opposi
tion—and this great change has been brought
about by the tyrannical course of would-be
Democratic leaders, who attempted to drive
the party into the support of Lecompton swin
dle. This lesson may serve to teach the pow
ers that be, that the people will only follow
in the footsteps of party leaders when they are
right—contending for principles rather than
spoils.
Zer We are happy to inform the commu
nity that Mr. WK. J. GEISSINGER of this
place has . been appointed agent for the sale
of Dr. CUTTER'S Chest Expanding Suspender
and Shoulder Brace, for ladies and gentle
men.
This is entirely a new, superior and great
ly improved article, combining all the advan
tages of a SUSPENDER and SHOULDER BRACE.
It is constructed upon anatomical and physi
ological- principles, and" is highly approved
by physicians and surgeons as being condu
cive to health and gracefulness, and is far
superior to the old excruciating articles in
regard to simplicity, comfort and durability.
His Brace and Belt for ladies deserve partic
ular attention, being light, elastic and easily
adjusted so as to secure the under garments
in a proper position, without concentrating
their weight in one particular part of the
body. Send your orders immediately and
secure for yourself, at a very low price, one
of the best inventions extant.

RELLIGEAENT PREACHERS.-A correspon
dent of a Louisville journal gives rather an
am:ls - mg account of a belligerent episode be
tween a couple of Kentucky parsons. One
of the clergymen, in applying for a letter of
dismission, remarked; if any of the brethern
bad anything to say about him, "to now de
clare it, or over after hold their peace."—
Whereupon the other preacher said some
thing which was not heard by all the congre
gation, but the lie passed between them.—
The preacher who called for the letter drew
back his fist and struck the other preacher a
heavy blow, and then zommenced kicking
him. Ile kicked him so hard that ho de
molished his boot. The defendant, being a
"nonresistant," made no defence, but went
before a magistrate and made a complaint.
The assailant was fined ten dollars and costs,
and submitted, besides, to a long lecture
from the court. The pugnacious divine is
described as a good-looking man, of fine tal
ents, and a great pulpit orator, with prepos
sessing manners.
The Liquor Law
The Easton Times of Tuesday 4th, says an
incident occurred in the Court there on Fri
day last, which has been the occasion of
much lively discussion and remark, as well
as no small amount of merriment at the ex
pense of the Legislature in general and of
Mr. Representative Goepp in particular.—
To fairly understand the force of the "joke,"
it must be recollected that the new License
Law originated in the House of Representa
tives, and was designed to inaugurate free
trade in selling liquor—to cake from the
Courts all discretion in the granting of li
cense—and to make it obligatory on them to
grant to every applicant whose papers were
in due form, without inquiry into the neces
sity of the house for the accommodation of
of the public. The Senate demurred to this
feature of the bill, and amended, so as to al
low an inquiry into the necessity of the li
cense but by the pertinacity of the House,
was compelled to yield the point, and the
free trade bill of the House became a law as
now in force.
On Friday a number of new applicants
came up before the Court of Northampton
county, and were confidently pressed, upon
the ground that their necessity for the ac
commodation of the public was not to be
considered—that having complied with the
forms of the law, they were entitled to their
licenses as a matter of course, and that the
Court could not refuse them. Gov. Reeder,
however, who was adversely employed, took
the ground that the Legislature were entirely
mistaken as to the meaning and effect of the
law they had passed—that it bad no such op
eration as was generally ascribed to it, and
that in fact, the Court was bound to inquire,
as_ under the old law, whether the, tavern
proposed was necessary for the accommoda
tion of the public, and if, in their opinion, it
was not so necessary, they must reject any
application.
The matter was argued on Friday evening
and Saturday morning, and the Times says
Gov. Reeder so clearly and conclusively es
tablished his position that there can remain
no doubt upon the subject. Nearly, if not
quite all the members of the bar concur in
the opinion that the argument cannot be an
swered, and the citizens generally are of the
same opinion. But what turns the joke com
pletely upon Mr. Goepp is, that the Court
subsequently gave their opinion, sustaining
Gov. Reeder's position, and refusing to grant
licenses to all the parties applying, except
one, which is held under advisement until
the 14th of June. The Times thus concludes :
" Singularly enough, the counsel for the
applicants was Mr. Goepp, who was chair
man for the Judiciary Committee in the
House, and has the reputation of having pre
pared the bill. He is certainly an able law
yer, and a clear-headed, logical man, and yet,
we are told, he was unable to meet the posi
tion taken by Gov. Reeder, and argued the
question in such a, manner as to convey the
impression that he was convinced against his
will. We are not learned in the law, but
we understand that the position is based on
the legal operation of a proviso in the sixth
section of the new law, and also upon the ar,
gument that by the repeal of a repealing law
the third section of the act of 1834 was un
expectedly revived. It is generally consid
ered here as a capital joke upon the Legis
lature."
The third section of the act of 1834, above
referred to, is as follows :
" No court shall license any inn or tavern
which shall not be necessary to accommodate
tho public and entertain strangers or travel
lers."
Whether Gov. Reeder and the Court are
right or not in their view of the law, the ta
bles have certainly been nicely turned upon
Mr. Geopp, the author of the new license law
CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GLOBE.
MONMOUTH, Illinois, May 3, 1858
EDITOR GLOBE—Dear Sir: We are get
ting along quietly out here this spring.—
Times are rather dull to what they have been
at this season for the last three or four years,
still, the cry of "hard times" is not heard
half so often as it was last fall, people don't
look half so - gloomy, and, although specula
tion in land and lots is stopped, farmers and
business men are going on as usual. Wages
are lower, and prices of produce quite low,
but the currency appears to be safe, and
many of the banks that closed last fall are
resuming again quietly, if not lending freely
as heretofore, at least meeting their liabili
ties. Our merchants are slowly collecting
their dues and sending it East to pay off
their indebtedness, and bringing on a few
goods in comparison to what they brought
other seasons, and our farmers are giving
their old coats and pantaloons another turn,
and buying only what they actually need.
We had a, very mild, open winter, and
early spring, but it has been rather wet for
farmers to get along. The weather has been
cold of late, though the fruit is still unin
jured. It is very healthy here this spring.
The travel on our Rail Road has not been as
large as last season.
Our Democratic State Convention was a
very large affair. Your correspondent had
the honor of sitting as a delegate from this
county. There were over 500 delegates in
attendance. The utmost harmony and good
feeling prevailed. The Lecompton men, most
ly office-holders, headed by IKE COOK, P. M.
of Chicago, held a small side-show in the
Senate Chamber at the same time. They
had come on for the purpose of trying to
control the Convention, but when they found
the delegates there from all over the State
united to a man, they wisely kept out and
organized by themselves. They passed reso
lutions, made speeches condemning our dele
gation in Congress, and adjourned without
making any nominations. Whether they will
continue to give aid and comfort to the Re
publicans of the State by voting with them,
or running a separate ticket to try to divide
the Democracy, remains to be seen. Whatev
er is necessary on their narts to hold the ap
pointments they now have or hope to secure,
they will do. The Democracy of this State,
with the slight exception referred to, are a
unit. They believetan the Cincinnati plat
form and the princiWes of the Kansas-Ne
braska bill, that the people were to make
their own laws, and by the people they
meant the bona fide residents without respect
to party, and they are not willing to allow
Congress to compel them to take a Constitu
tion against their known will, no matter what
may have been the fault of either party in
the Territory before that Constitution was
made. Hoping• that the Kansas question
will seen be settled, and that peace and pros
perity may follow in Kansas and all over
our happy land, I will close this scrawl.
P. J.
You are on the Wrong Road.
[Written for the Globe.]
"Is this the right road to N—?" in
quired a gentleman of a little boy, who was
hastening with book in hand, to the district
school. "No sir," said the lad pleasantly,
happy to set the stranger in the right direc
tion—" you should have taken the right hand
road just below the last farm house you
passed." The stranger thanked the lad for
this information, and hastily retraced his
steps in the course pointed out. When I see
a young man spending his earnings at the
card table-and grog-shop, thus ruining his
health, blasting the fond hopes of indulgent
parents, disgracing friends, and destroying
the noblest work of God—the human soul,—
I feel like saying to him, " Sir, you are on
the wrong road; and unless you retrace your
steps—and that quickly too—you are forever
lost." Go back, young man go back Your
kind father who has supplied your every
want is mourning over the shameful conduct
of his wayward son. Your fond, indulgent
mother, true to her maternal devotion, can
not forget you, but longs to see her darling
boy return a penitent, to her fond embrace.
Your pious sister, who loves you with that
fond endearment, which only a sister can
evince, in her daily orisons pleads with the
fervency of a seraph, for the return and res
toration of her tenderly cherished brother.—
Oh ! young man will you not be entreated,
for their sakes, to abandon those sensual
pleasures, which grow stale and insipid as
we indulge in them ; and hasten to quench
the thirst of your immortal mind at the foun
tains of friendship and love, whose waters
grow more refreshing and purer the deeper
draughts we take. If you continue on in
your present career, your kind father's gray
hairs will be brought down with sorrow to
the grave ; your sainted mother, worn out
with constant care and anxiety for her son,
will soon rest in the peaceful tomb ; your
lovely sister, gathered as a beautiful flower
to adorn her master's crown of rejoicing,
shall no longer supplicate a throne of grace
in your behalf; your boon companions will
forsake you ; the cold, uncharitable world
will call you a poor, drivelling drunkard;
mothers will point you out to their children
as a warning against the allurements of the
intoxicating cup and the gambling saloon ;
conscience, that unerring monitor within
your breast, will accuse you of the murder
of your parents, and the destruction of your
own soul ; and your numerous crimes will
plant a thousand stinging thorns within your
dying pillow. If you, dear reader, are pur
suing such a course, let me warn you, you
are on the wrong road. LEROY.
SPRUCE CREEK, May Bth.
GRASSHOPPERS IN TEXAS.—The Austin Ga
zette of the 24th ult., states that the grass
hoppers are making fearful depredations
both above and below the river. They are
said to be laying waste everything before
them, not sparing a stalk of corn, or a blade
of wheat.
The Galveston News of the 27th, has the
following in relation to the destruction caused
by the grasshoppers in Western -Texas :
A gentleman who has just returned from
a journey through Gonzales, Caldwell, Hays,
Carnal, Guadalupe, Bexar, Karnes, and De
Witt counties, informs us that generally
throughout these counties, the grasshoppers
have destroyed the entire growing crops of
corn, wheat, cotton, and all garden vegeta
bles so that there is scarcely a green thing
left. On the Cipola, the grasshoppers were
so numerous a week ago that our informant
could not put his foot to the ground without
treading on them.
These insects eat everything clean as they
go. Our informant says he saw wheat fields
on the outside of which the wheat was cut
down as clean as it could have been done by
a cradle, and every stalk eat up, while the
balance of the fields had not been touched
at all. They not only eat the corn that is
above the ground, but eat everything under
ground to the roots. They are
,now com
mencing to fly, and this is looked upon as a
favorable omen.
TIIE LAND DONATIOIsT BILL.—A bill has
passed the House of Representatives, atWash
ington, for the benefit of Agriculture and the
Mechanic Arts, which grants 6,340,000 acres
of public lands to be apportioned to each
State in amounts equal to 20,000 acres for
each Senator and Representative in Congress,
to which the States are now respectively en
titled. The monies derived from the sales of
these lands are to be invested in United States
or other stocks, yielding not less than five
per centum ; the monies thus invested to con
stitute a perpetual fund, the interest of which
shall be inviolably appropriated to the en
dowment, support and maintenance of at
least one College where the leading object
shall be, -without excluding other scientific
or classical studies, to teach such branches
of learning as are related to Agriculture and
the Maehanic Arts in such manner as the
Legislatures of the States may prescribe, in
order to promote a liberal practical educa
tion of the industrial classes in their several
pursuits and professions of life. Among the
conditions on which the grants are made as
one that the State shall provide not less than
one College within five years.
The bill has been read-twice in the Senate,
and refered to the committee on public Lands.
Should this bill become a law the share
coming to Pennsylvania will be the proceeds
of tae sale of 540,000 acres of la,ed—the mo
uel interest of which would probably be not
less than $30,000.
Burning Mountain
The editor of the Pottsville Journal recent
ly paid a visit to a natural curiosity in that
vicinity, and thus gives an account of it. It
is very interesting : "As is generally known,
there is a vein of coal located above water
leiel in Broad Mountain, about seven miles
from this Borough, and near lleckscherville,
which for twenty-one years has been on fire.
The vein which contains excellent white ash
coal, is some forty feet in thickness. The or
igin of the fire is attributed to a coupple of
miners, who, having some work to perform in
drift in the depth of miners, built a fire—they
being cold—in the gangway. The flames de
stroying the prop timbers, were carried by a
strong current, rappidly along the passage,
and the fire communicating to the coal, all
subsequent efforts to extinguish it were inef
fectual. The men were cut off from escape,
and were undoubtedly suffocated to death.—
Their remains were never found.
" A few days since we ascended the moun
tain at the spot of the fire, and were much
interested in examining the affect of the fire
übon the surface. The course of it is from
east to west, and where the vein is nearest
the surface, the ground is for the space of
several hundred feet, sunken into deep pits;
and while the stones exhibit evidences of hav
ing been exposed to the action of intense heat,
every vestige of vegetation has been blasted.
It is a desert track in the midst of smiling
fertility. The ground in some places was al
most too warm fur the hand to rest upon it,
while steam from water heated by the inter
nal fire rose from every pore. The fire has
evidently extended for several' hundred yards
from the place it originated, and finds vent
and air to continue its progress, at the pits
to which we have alluded. A score of years
has passed, still it burns, and will burn un
til further fuel is denied the devouring ele
ment. Thousands of tons of coal have un
doubtedly been consumed, and thousands of
tons may yet feed the fire before it is
checked."
Military Orders
ST. Lours, May B.—Major Gen. Smith has
issued elaborate orders relative to the move
ment of the trains and troops of the Utah
forces.
The trains are to be divided into divis
ions of two hundred and twenty-six wagons
each. The troops will be organized into col
umns, each column constituting an escort of
the Division general supply train. The first
column, under command of Lieut. Col. An
drews, is already organized and ordered to
march. The second column, under Col. Mon
roe, comprising the escort to the first divis
ion supplies, will march from Leavenworth
on the 15th inst. The third column, under
Col. May, marches on the 20th. The fourth
column, under Col. Morrison, will march, on
the 25th. The fifth column, under Col. Sum
ner, marches on the 30th. The sixth column,
under Major Emory, marches on the 4th of
June." These columns for the present con
stitute the First Brigade of the Utah forces
under command of Gen. Harney. Each col
umn will be supplied with four mouth's pro
visions,. which are to be replenished in pass
ing Forts Laramie and Kearney. Gen. Smith
is yet in this city—the state of his health be
ing such as to require his remaining here
a short time longer. Four companies of the
Sixth Infantry left Leavenworth on the 6th
inst.
, : ,,One company of Infantry, from Fort
join them at Fort Kearney.
John Hartnett, Secretary of Utah, left
here yesterday for Leavenworth.
keY-New York City ought to be proud of
her selection for law-makers. Among the
persons arrested on Tuesday for selling lot
tery policies was a fellow named Alexander
111cGarren, now a member of the Board of
Councilmen of the Fifth Ward. Within a
short time one other member has been arres
ted for beating a woman in a house of pros
titution, another for mauling a policemen
and trying to bite his nose off; another in
dulged in a free fight in a theatre saloon ; an
other pitched into a brother member in the
clerk's office ; another, not a great while ago,
was second or bottle-holder in a prize fight ;
not a few have been keepers of very low
grogeries ; and now one turns up under ar
rest and held to bail as a common gambler,
in an establishment patronized chiefly by the
most wretched of the negro population of the
Fifth Ward. Remark is needless.
ARREST AND SUICIDE OF A POISONER.—Mrs.
Phoebe Westlake, a widow residing in Ches
ter, Orange co., N. Y., was arrested on May
7th, on suspicion of poisonin ,, several per
sons in the village, and last night destroyed
herself by taking arsenic. Before the sui
cide she confessed that she had administered
poison at different times to a Mrs. Fielder,
who died about two weeks since, very sud
denly. She also confessed that she adminis
tered poison to a Mr. J. B. Tuthill, a mer
chant, who has recovered and is doing well.
Mrs. Charles Tuthill and a Mrs. Derrick are
now very unwell, with every symptom of
having been poisoned; and as Mrs. Westlake
had lately sent them some preserves which
they had eaten, it is supposed that they were
also intended by her as victims.
PHILADELPHIA MAI - LICE TS•

Rye Flour and Corn Meal aro liens at $3.25 bbl, at which
rate the latter is freely offered. There has been rather
more doing in Wheat to-day, without change in quotations,

110.01112 c for good and prime lots, and 2,400 bus white,
mostly at 122 , A(ii.1.25c for good to prime Louthern, in store
and afloat. Rye is selling as wanted at Cff'. 70c. mostly at
the latter rate, delivered. Corn is quiet to-slay, there is not
much offering, but buyers are holding off, and about 3,500
bushels Penna. and Southern yellow only have been dis•

and we quote the Southern at 39e, and Penna. at 39040 c,
without much doing.

MAY APPOINTMENTS,
HARD:II.IAN, Physician for ilia
disease of tho Lungs,
(formerly Physician to Cincin

us follows :
Huntingdon, Jack ton's Hotel, Wednasdity, May 26.
Hollidaysburg, Exchange Hotel,
Lewistown, 7National lloteh •' 27,
. Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma,
Larryngittis and all diseases of the throat and lungs, by
Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Broatton Hospital,
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. If the stomach is diseased we take'
medicine directly into the stomach. If the lungs are dim
cased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines arc antidotes to disease and should•
be applied to the very seat of disease. Inhalation is Ulu
application of this principle to the treatment of the lungs,
for it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, and
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 unoffending stomach. whilst the tbul 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 stomacli, or in , -
terfere in the least degree with the strength, comfort, or
business of the patient.
Other Diseases Treated.—ln relation to the following die
eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex
isting, alone, 1 also invite consultation, 1 usually find them ,
prompt/2/ curable.
Prulapsus 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 ear. Neuralgia, Epilepsy,
and all forms of nervous disease.
