1 1'11E'.(41TERNOIt'13 IgESBACIE —We pre
sent 'the Governor's• mes'Sage •to our
readers to-day in an extra sheet. It
is a clear, able and forcible document,
and should be read by every intelli
gent citizen in the Commonwealth.—
The Governor's views on the State
Treasury accord with our own exact
ly., While wo commend the message
as a whole, we may be allowed to
snigest that it i , ould have served its
purpose equally as well, if the Cuban
question and - that of our National' ft:
nances had been "let alone," whilst
tliedcivernbr's views about Cuba are
tii - Osiiiftiiiab-tentha 'Of the 'Amerfcn
people, yet they are in direct conflict
with the policy of the National Ad
minieaation: - But iea'd the message.
•
AtEir."Dad", of the Globe thinks a man who
bolted part - of a ticket once in his lifetime is
"too fresh", to-express an opinion on the Con
gressional nomination.— Cremer.
Asking the "polish" for ooe of your
kind is a little more than expressing
an opinion. The Republican party is
an organization , to keep . Democracy
andliebels out of power -you repudi
ated the Republican organization and
have not yet' returned to it. When
you: can come back like a repentant
rebel and - show , by your works that
you ititend:'to behave better, true Re
publicans may listen to.your opinions,
-but until then your opinions will have
no weight with men who work for the
success of the Republican party. As to
your bolting a part of a ticket once in
your lifetime, we question. We know
that for several years,when,yon were
not holding office:Yon were not count
ed anywhere—you were out of politics
—atleast yott-Were not counted "in"
when there was work or party ex
penses ott:hatik ;..
IterCremer'thinks we have been . a
political "weather-cock." Let us see
what we have been.' From thd spring
of '46 to the - commencement of the
war we published the Globe as a Dem
ocratic paper. Miring the war we
stood.by..theiUnforr party and defend- .
ed Lincoln and Johnson, its nominees,
until Johnson went over to the Demo
cracy—then without a party we took
an outside seat until the Republican
party re-organized and nominated
our candidate- Gen. _Grant for Presi
dent, and • there we have been over
since, supporting every nominee of the
party, Whilst, armor and his guerrilla
clan hate been working to defeat Re
publican nominees. We are just as
old a Republican as the Grant Repub
lican party, and we have been true to,
itiOrganization and nominees, which
is‘thore than Cretner can say for him
self and his backers, and yet he wants
to be considered our political' equal,
and his guerrilla associates the politi
cal 'equals;otatiy-other Republicans in
the district. Ctiquer.ia too much of
an old fogy to see hitt - tell as true par
ty Republicans see him: Ile is "too
fresh" to give an honest Republican
opinion—indeed ho has not yet come
out from the fuul party.
The Guerrilla Secret League.
At last we have the positive evi
dence of the existence of a secret po
litical organization in this connly, and
the secret of the success of' the guer
rillas in the late..eamPaign is long
er a mystery. , • There is no use deny
ing any longer thit hundreds•-ofße
publicans had the wool pulled
. over
their . eYes'hy . the :secret programme
-of th,o Chief of the secret league, and
influenced to'workin — ther:interest of
the secret . Mr. SEOtt
was put forward by a secret political
organization:to fight an imaginary se
cret Political organization said to exist
tinder the - control - of - Mr; Woods, but
of the existence of such an'" organiza
tion we have not yet had any man's
say that we could believe. Robert
McDivitt, editor of the Journal& Amer
ican,zirravply p-Cremer and-the or
gab OfolldY'teseerot political league,
'in his' lase week's limo, makes the fol
lowing expose :
"Some of them, I Crerner's lies,] however,
are rather amusing; for instance to cover up
the difficulty presented by the Henry Shearer
affidavit by Baying :i t .Vrati attith pt to
initiate him into the Union League. This is
an old dodge which we' were familiar with'
some-iime,ago,.and"might do to toll any per
son who had never been 'in,' but will not
serve to "pull the wool" over the eyes of any
one who hcid been inside of both organizations.
We have been in the Union League and the
°TREK Also, and know all about BOTH. But
Mr. Cremer is willing to undertake to lie his
friends on: of the one, ski it does not suit him at
present, and consequently the affidavit of Mr.
Shearer is of no account. We can see no
imaginable difference between the • state
ments of Henry Shearer and Judge Leas—
both gentlemen of high standing and char:.
aster—so far as importance may be attached•
to either. They were each invited, it seems,
into different organizations, and neither of
them initiated. We were never into the ono
Judge Leas speaks of, and cannot say any
thing about it experimentally, while we were
INVITED and INITIATED into the one Mr.
Shearer speaks of, and IT WAS NOT THE
UNION LEAGUE, but a secret politica or -2
ganization, of which Div Orlady was •the
head, and of which John' Scott is now sup;
posed to be the body, and Theo. 11. Cromer
the tail.. As to. congealing • or denying the
existence of any buret league we leave pus
readers to judge."
What More do the honest and true
Republican voters of the •county want
to satisfy them of the existence of a
secret political guerrilla Otani - tat - ion
with Orlady •as its head• and Cremer's
Republican as its organ ?• Will true,
Republicans• be deceived a second time'
by such. a • bitnd of•disorganizer - s?-:,'
Can menwho have acted and are still'
acting a prominent part, with such an
organization be considered and 'recog--
nized. as the equals of Republicans.who
refused to desert their party organiza
tion and unite with Democrats to de
feat Republican nominees? Mr. Mc-
Divitt was•initiated into the guerrilla
league and he knows all about it, but
couldn't go with it over to the Demb
cracy in the late campaign.

A FEW counterf.lit•eoupons recently
made their way into the United States
Treasurer's office. The discovery made
quita"a flutter in financial circles, and
General Spinner highly complimented
his lady clerks in making such an im

coupons wore returned to the points
from which they came, oven, in some
instances, to Europe, with statements
that they -would-not be - redeemed; 'as
they were not genuine.

pointed by Governor Geary to be Ad
jutant General of Pennsylvania, in
place of Hon. M. McCleary, of Erie,
who resigned to accept a. scat in the
House._ •
The State Treasurer.
Governor Geary, in his message, confirms
the suspicions of many well-informed men
that the Treasurers of our State have been '
in the habit of loaning Out,the moneys of
the pommonwealth to liatiks, or.private ban
kers, or to others,'and thereby realizing enor
mous gains. - ,Altheugh the salary ',of the
Treasurer is only MOO, 'the, Governor elle
ges that "there are ;hut few men who have
hold this office, however poor they may have
been when they took charge of it, who have
not become rich." He also plainly intimates
that- these fortunes are acquired by the "un
lawful use of the State funds, and subsidies
that dare not be revealed to the pUblie, be
cause they are positively prohibited by law,
under penalti9.4of no ordinary magnitude!'
The Governor has, perhaps, more information
upon this subject 'which it would be better if
he would make known, so that the full ex•
tent of the fraud, if any has been committed,
should be known by every tax-payer.
.The recent excited contest for the'State
Treasureship meant something, and that
meaning is significant. Why should there
- be•such scrambling after such an insignifi
_cant sala'ry as $1700? The Governor tell s
the secretwhen he save that those who have
held the office have become "rich." The Go
vernor having been bold enough to speak his
sentiments, it is now time for our Legisla
ture to profit by his suggestions, and work
about a reform. The people know the sur
plus in the Treasury is appropriated to the
aggrandizement of the official in charge, and
not forlhe good of the State, and they will
demand,•sooner or-dater, that that seKt of
dealing be ended. •
A Child Shot while Walking with his
Mother,
We, take the flallowing from the
Pittsburg Cofizike'rcial of Monday.' It
relates a very distressing case of shoot
ing, resulting from the practice of us
ing fire-arms, in the public streets:
A lady tiain'ed fiti.s: - Neumatt, while
walking along Fifth avenue,heving by
the hand a little boy aged four years,
was startled by the report of a pistol,
which had been fired, off close to her.
She was still wieiVaiarmed when her
child began to scream, as if it had been
shot. Tho firlQtpptession was thfit'it
had been only frightened, but its writli
ings soon showed that it had been in•
lured. 41114:' , '..Netatti j an soon observed
blood running over the child's - shoes,
and fearing the worst, began to scream
and wring liei , frAhtli in anguiSti. Mr.
'J. C. Smith noticed three boys passing
just atuomenl4eforo the shooting,one
of vihtini lititt a Oathl in his hand. Ile
had passed out of sight when the shot
was fired, : and tbo , loudness of the re
port. attracted 'hie notice. The boys
were rather rough in appearance, and
were fonttecn or fifteen years' of ago.
The last glimpse that Mr. Smith got of
the pistol impressed him with the be
lief that the weapon had been aimed
at something, as the motion of the
band indicated that jt was about to t e
discharged. The sereamsof the moth
er, at the sight of the blood, induced
Mr. Smith to run out of his store and
open•the little fellow's cloak and bar
ing his breast the bullet hole was ap
parent. The ball had entered the lett
breast, passing entirely through the
body and coining out at the back.
The mother, almost frantic with
"lief, took the eeild in her arms and
ran with him to Abel's drug store, a
few yards distant. Dr. Wishart 'was
then summoned, and stilted that the
ball had passed through the left lung.
He dressed the wounds, but expressed
fours that death would result from in
ternal bleedirrg. After the dressing,
the child was removed to the real
'dunce of its Ifirkiii." The name of
the boy who did the shooting is un
known, but he should he hunted up,
and his conduct investigated. Dr.
Wishart yesterday reporte the child
in as favorable a condition as could
be hoped for. There was internal
.hemorrhage, but not to any groat ex
tent. Tho prospectaof recovery, hew
ever, aro by no means flattering.

IMPORTANT TO TnTATOIIB —lt is not
gonerally . l{nolyn,.that there is
. an Act
of the' Pen nsYlvanitt Legislature prod
ding that no estate shall bo bequeath
ed; devised,' or botiVoyed to any body
politic, or to any person, in trust for
religious or charftable uses, except the
same be done by deed or will . at least
one month before the decease of the
testator or. alienor. It is an important
provision, and persons who contem
plate charitable beqUests should pre
pare their wills id season. We have
recently noticed several instances in
which such bequests have failed, be
cause-of the wills not being executed
a month prior to death of the parties.
Last' 'month Mrs. Sophia Idcylin died
in Lancaster, bequeathing $l,OOO to
Trinity Luth. Church, and 310,000 to
Zibn's Lutheran Church. Both be
guests are void, because the will was
'executed less than thirty days before
her death. Not long ago, Henry Law
son, of Norristown,died with a bequest
of a . large amount of money to a Phil
adelphia assciation, whice failed for
the same-reason.
GREAT joy was manifested among•
many of the robelsin certain Southern
'localities, when hearing of the death
of Secretary Stanton, atd it was the
signal of the letting loose of the worst
passions. It seems that so long as the
present generation lives, so long will
there.exist a bitter animosity against
the principal defenders of the Union.
THE Massachusetts Legislature con
vened on the sth inst., and immediate
ly after the election of a President of
the Senate and a Speaker of the House
the members were escorted to the Old
Dutch church, where they board a ser
mon. This is truly a model Legisla
ture.

Wonderful Case of Suspended Anima
tion in St, Louis,
Saint Louis is in a state of great ex
citement over• the case of Mr. Heit
kamp. The Republican of January 3d
has the following particulars : •
The fifth day has elapsed since the
body of Mr. Ifieticamp passed into 'a
comatose condition, resembling death;
and yet there is no change,in the col
or of his features,, the touch of his
flesh, other than a small degree of un
natural coldness. His eyes are closed
as if closed in sleep, and in fact, if the
body was taken out of the coffin and
placed on'•a bed, and • then shown to
persons ignorant of the circumstances,
they would most unqnbstionably de
clare the man was in a dew sleep.--
There is no softening of the flesh, no
indications whatever of putrefaction.
There is an entire absence of that odor
that is alone peculiar to a dead human
body. The fingers and wrist joints
aro still flexible, white there is an
absence of deathly stiffness from the
neck joints. • These facts, at the expi
ration of.the fifth day from the time
it was supposed he died, surround the
case with groat and increasing inter
est, and many aro heard declaring
that the man cannot be dead. If it is
not death, then what is it? So far no
•reasonable satisfactory• explanation,
neither for the absence of the usual
attendants of death, (putrefaction etc.)
if he be dead, nor of outward evidences
of animation, if ho, indeed, -be living,
have been given,.and the quotation—
" God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform,"
Oceurs'to the 'mind' as -often as the
case.is mentioned. He may be dead,
and yet ma hf 3 alive. ,At a late hour
last night, a majority of the people
conversant with the case inclined to
the latter opinion, and were quite free
in so expressing themselves.
There are accounts on record of the
opening of graves long years after bur
rial, when the bodies, once clothed in
flesh, were found in such a position as
to indicate clearly that they had turn
od'over. How did they get that
position ? -Many years ago, 'an Eng
lish countess: apparently died.. her
body was placed in the vault. It was
know that she wore on her fingers ,
some valuable jewelry.. A few nights"
after the vault was broken open, an
attempt made to slip the rings 'frOm
her fingers, but they would not pass
the joints. ThC fiends or robbers, in
order to accomplish their purpose, cut
one of the fingers off. The blood star
ted, and in-lees time than it takes to
write it, the Countess rose in her cof
fin, and iwas finally restored to her
family and friends and lived for many
years. Was her condition when placed.
in the vault the same as that in which
Mr. Heitkamp is now lying, or his
like hers? 'There are other instances
where person were supposed to have
died, and were clothed and coflined for
burial, and yet revived and lived
_for
many years. Thby stated, after recov,
ery, that they were fully cognizant of
all that was going on around them,
but yet 'were powerless—palsied in

be that s thereia to be a full verification
of this strange dream ? that some un
accountakablo and inexplicable agency
is at-work in this case for the accom
plishment of strange purpose? '
It is the fded determination of the
immediate relatives of Mr. Heitkairip
to retain his body from' burial until

epidemic, and youth as well as age has
caught the infection. The examples
of rascality now so numerous among
men of high estate, aro finding* bold
imitators in young boys. Parents
should look alter their children closer
in these times than they have been
wont, because the temptations to 'fall
into the evil ways are more numerous
than formerly. Young boys aro easily
tempted, and are poor judges between
right and wrong, and the slightest in
fluence is apt to turn a good boy into
the path of evil, from which he may
not be able to extricate himself for the
balance of his life. How important,
then, that the earliest impressions
should be in the right direction. The
worst thing that can befall a boy is to
bare liberty to stay out at night. This
is too often a fatal privilege, because
it is (luring the hour of night that all
mischief is planned and consummated,
and the boy who goes "for the fun of
the thing," , with others who go to com
mit depredations upon valuables, may
himself be the party, in earnest, the
next time, and
,become.a'gallowe' bird
in after times. Boys are naturally
well disposed. An impolite boy, if
properly approached, is hard to find
on our streets; but
,as we have said,
their minds receive impressions as ea
sily as wax, and unless great care is
taken with them, they may as readily
receive bad as good impressions.

Terrible Scene on Board of a British
Steamer.
Kiva,ToN, Jamaica, Dec. 10
Asad accident has happened to the
British ateamer‘Twinkling Star, late
American steamer Estrella, which left'
this port on' the 20th ujtimo for Cape
Hayti,:with a valuable cargo on board,
At about 9 o'clock on Saturday, the,
27th alt, when about fifty miles from
St. Nicholas, and, about 9 o'clock at
night the engineers discovered that
the iron plates about, rnidships,
front of the paddle wheels, had
,been
strained from,the heavy seas ! through
which she was passing, and that largo
volumes s of. water were coming into
the hold of the vessel, through cracks
on either side, below tho Water-murk.
Some of the passengers on board were
advised of this, and gradually the Pas•
sengers and crew were overtaken bY
a panic, when there was a rush to the
life-boat, which was speedily lowered,
and into it. escaped the United States
Consul of this port, Mr. Aaron Gregg,
and several' others. But the lowering
of this boat was so badly managed, in
the effort of every one to Savo himself',
that the bow of the boat 'was elevated
out of' the water,' while'tho -stern was'
submerged in the foam which left the
paddle-wheels, but they managed at
last, to cut the rope, and ao disentan
gled them from the steamer. No
sooner had this life boat parted' from
the ship than a panic overtook the
fireman and others who were left on
board, and - the scene when the firemen
forsook the furnaces, the oilmen the
engines, the stewards the kitchens, the
captain took leave of his senses, was
perfectly hellish. The panic-stricken
crew seeing that the life-boat had left
them believed that the ship was about
ready ta'part itnd ready to founder,
and just at this' critical moment Mr.
Thomas Lewis, the second engineer,
and 'the 'only" American citizen on
board, seeing every post deserted and
'all barids'flying in the jaws of death,
rushed upon, the deck, and
,with a
voice of=thunder and thrilling earnest
! ness,'addiessed :himself to them in this
wiael•-:-"11 - alloo there ! where are you,

(Turning agr,ttini' to the fireman, who
stood with' their bags ready' to quit
the'Ship)-:--"Go heels . to your places,
and do your duty, 'and' if we are to
die, let us'die like brave men, and not
as cowards! I 'am but a young man

necessarily to risk my life 't And I
have a young wife and a little family
in Jatrutica,..and do you think I am
going to leave them to want? Not a
bit of it. I mean - to go back there:and
not to runaway in a little emergency

than, a solicitor, who was buckling on
a life belt, said :—"Tuke that off, sir;
not the slightest necessity for any
nonsense of that kind. You stand by
me, and everything will go well." And
that little American-citizen, Mr. Lew
is, so inspired confidence into the
whole panic stricken crew, that they
resumed.thoir places, and carried the
steamer succeasfally, into the harbor
