No PAPEIL—There will be no paper

Job Rooms will be open daily, and our
friends can be accommodated promptly.
Ng_ Hon. Horace F. Clark, President
of the Union Pacific Railroad, is dead. '
se_ The Constitutional Convention has
resolved to remain in session until the
conclusion of its labors.
Da. The Democratic party is used up.
It appears to be without head, arms, body
or legs—nothing left but one big tail.
oft. The Democratic press every month
or two pays its respects to Gen. Grant by
denouncing him as a "drunken loafer,"
&c. It is their sole stock in trade. As it
appears to please them, and does not hurt
Grant, let them crack away.
Z When the whites massacred a large
number of blacks at Colfax, La., many of
our Democratic contemporaries were as si
lent as the grave, but as soon as Governor
Kellogg arms the blacks to enable them to
prevent such atrocities in the future, they
at once declare that "it is difficult to con
ceive of a greater outrage." It makes a
difference whose ox is gored.
Da,. The Republicans of Bedford coun
ty have nominated the following excellent
ticket, viz: Associate Judge, Edmund F.
Garliiager ; District Attorney. 'William C.
Smith; Treasurer, Wm. Masters; County
Commissioner, John Eichelberger; Jury
Commissioner, David R. Smith ; Poor Di
rector, Joseph. Snowden ; Auditor, John
C. Ickes.
let...onr esteemed young friend, Wm.
C. Smith, Esq., of Bedford, we are highly
gratified to learn, has received the nomin
ation for District Attorney at the hands of
the Republican County Convention. This
is a highly merited compliment. Mr.
Smith has been an ardent and hard-work
ing Republican ever since he has been old
enough to talk politics, and he deserves
the undivided support of the party. We
hope he may be triumphantly elected.
SW We notice by the, proceedings pf
the Republican County Convention, of
Bedford county, that the name of Hon.
William M. Hall, of that place, is brought
fbrward for the office of Judge of the Su
preme Court. Certainly no better man
could be suggested for the position. He
is well known throughout the Common
wealth as one of the ablest judges upon
the bench, and his nomination would give
assurance that the Republican party is de
termined to maintain the high character
of the. Supreme Bench for learning and
integrity.
Dor Three numbers of the Centennial,
a handsome monthly quarto, published in
Philadelphia, by H. W. Crotzer, Esq., de

Centennial Anniversary of American In

with decided ability and contains lunch
that is highly instructive. In it every
patriotic American can find much that

souls" and the characters„who then figured
conspicuously. Price $l.OO per year. Ad

3 6,,. It is strange how time meliorates'
the views of men about men. Forty years
ago, when the Anti-Slavery agitation be
gan, not a paper in the United States da
-red say a kind thing of Lewis Tappan. He
was, says the Pittsburgh Commercial, on
the contrary, denounced vilely and perse
cuted bitterly by nearly all classes and
conditions of men. He, however, kept on
the even tenor of his way; and now, when
he has dropped into the grave at the ripe I
old age of eighty-five, with all the work
grandly done, the beginning of which
made him so odious in 1832 and for years
after, all the papers in the Union speak
well of him, praise him for his nobleness
of heart and grandness of purpose, and
speak of his philanthropy as the distin
guishing mark of his career. There is
nothing succeeds like success. The Lewis
Tappan of 1873 was the Lewis Tappan of
1832, unchanged in all except age. But
he had not succeeded then, and he has,
now. Besides, the world does move, and
the progress made in those 40 years has
aided greatly in dispelling the harsh judg
ment which greeted this good man when
he helped to begin the greatest of all the
good works of the nineteenth century.
Dar The Republican County Conven
tion of Bedford county, which assembled
on last Wednesday, passed the following
among other resolutions, viz :
Resolved, That we most earnestly del
preciate the course of many of our public
officials and Representatives in their va
rious capacities, in voting for and receiv
ing increased salaries during the term for
which they were elected, such a policy be
ing in direct opposition to the fundamen
tal principles of the Republican party and
seriously detrimental to its best interests,
as well as those of the country.
Resolved, That we heartily endorse the
administration of John F. Hartranft, his
wisdom, prudenceand fearless course on all
matters of public interest, having already
fully demonstrated the fact he is worthy
of the most implicit confidence of the men
of all parties in the State and entitled to
preeminent praise for his valuable service
to the Commonwealth both as her defender
on the field of battle and her protector in
the executive chair.
Resolved, That this convention instruct
in favor of Hon. William M. Hall, the
able and accomplished President Judge of
this Judicial District, for Supreme Judge,
and that the representative delegates be
instructed to present his name to the neat
Republican State Convention, as a suits-
Me person for the Republican nomination
for said office, and that they use all hon
orable means to secure his nomination. _
Resolved, That the course of Hon. John
Scott in voting against and of not using
any portion of the extra pay voted to Con
gressmen meets our entire approval.
THE CONSTITUTION
The Work of the Convention
Now that the convention is approaching
the close of its labors for the summer,
having extended its sessions almost daily
over nearly six months; it is thought fit to
give a general but comprehensive epitome
of its work, in order that the people might
see in a short space exactly what has been
done and what it is proposed to do. For
this purpose Mr. J. McDowell Sharpe was
requested to give shortly his views of the
work of the convention. Without more
ado than to take up the appendix contain
ing the printed articles lying on his desk,
Mr. Sharpe gave the following informa
tion :
A good deal of the work of the conven
tion is yet in a crude condition, but enough
of it has been done to form an idea of the
general course of the revision and amend
ments made by the body now sitting in
Philadelphia.
GUARDS AROUND THE BALLOT.
The article on election, suffrage, and
representation has passed second reading,
and is now in the hands of the Committee
on Revision and Adjustment. The prin
cipal modifications in the present law made
by this article are : Every rotz-r is required
to have been a citizen of the United States
for at least thirty days before the election.
Under the old constitution they (foreign
born denizens) can be naturalized up to
the very day of election. This state of
the law was a fruitful source of fraudulent
naturalization papers: The advantage of
having the thirty days is apparent. It
enables these of the opposite parties a full
opportunity to ferret out and circumvent
fraud of this character. So, too, the resi
dence of the voter in the district has been
increased from ten to thirty days, and the
payment of the tax must be made sixty
days before the.election instead of on the
day of the election, as may be done now.
The object of extending the time of resi
dence was to enable the election officers
and those actively conducting the interests
of the opposing political candidates to get
acquainted with the new comers. Bat es
pecially was this constitutional provision
launched against "colonization," as it is
called, whereby a surplus of voters for
either candidate are enabled to move into
a district, otherwise about evenly divided
as to its voting population, and live there
for the ten days before election. The
thirty days provision renders the processes
of this fraud much more difficult to be
carried out. The object of requiring the
tax to be paid so long before the election
was to throw another obstacle in the way
of unscrupulous party men in their efforts
to control the voter.
As a further security to the ballot, the
requirement is made of the election offi
cers to number each ballot as it is present
ed, which number will correspond with
the number of the elector on the polls.
Each elector may, if he chooses, write his
name on the ballot. In the Committee of
the Whole the convention made this wri
ting of the name obligatory, but on second
reading it was made optional with the
elector. This change was made because,
as it was argued, the committee's provision
was supposed to destroy the secrecy of the
ballot. It was also considered by the
country members inconvenient, and a re
striction on the free exercise of the ballot.
The city members were about equally di
vided as to whether this obligatory , clause
should be enforced in the cities.
OVEII4EERS OP ELECTION
There is a still further provision to
guard the ballot-box in this article, and a
most important one. The court may, upon
the petitipn of a certain number of citi
zens setting forth that there is danger of
fraud in some election precinct, appoint
overseers composed of men of different
political parties who, in case of dispute,
will join with the board of election officers,
and a majority of the whole number will
settle the disputed point. The object of
this is apparent. When the inspector and
judge fraudulently take illegal votes or
refuses legal ones, the other inspector may
call to his assistance those overseers ap
pointed by the court. The difference be
tween these overseers and the "watchers"
provided for by the United States author
ities, is that the latter are "mere lookers
on in Vienna," and can say and do noth
ing, though the most flagrant fraud be
committed, while the former are permitted,
under a certain state of facts, to exercise a
voice in settling the disputed point.
So, too, a most important modification
lof the present law in regard to contested
elections has been made, as well as a most
extraordinary cases omissus remedied.
Contested elections of the electors for
President and Vice President, State Sena
tors and Representatives, shall be tried by
courts of law and not by partisan commit
tees of the Legislature. The caws omissus
provided for is that suggested by Mr.
Buckalew, viz: that there has never been
provided any mode by which the contested
election of a seat in the Electoral College
could be tried.
THE LEGISLATURE.
The important changes in the make-up
of the legislative body isself are : The pe
riod of the tenure of Senators is changed
from three years to four, while that of the
members of the House is changed from
one to two years. The sessions of the
body have also been made biennial, and
the construction of the Senate limited to
fifty members, and that of the House to
one hundred and fifty members.
In the article on legislation all power
to pass special bills has been taken away;
also, all appropriations made to charitable
or educational associations, which the State
has not absolute control of, have been ren
dered illegal, except upon a two-third
vote. Appropriations to sectarian institu
tions have been refused absolutely. The
only other article•of general interest gone
through with on second reading is that en
the Executive.
THE EXECUTIVE.
Two new officers have been constituted
by this article—the Lieutenant Governor,
who shall preside over the Senate, and in
cases of a tie shall cast a vote, and the
Secretary of Internal Affairs, who shall
have the duties of the Surveyor General,
superadded to which shall be the duty of
attending to the industrial, manufacturing,
charitable, and agricultural interests of
the State. The term of the Governor is
extended from three to four years. There
is a restraint put unon the pardoning
power, as follows: "He shall grant no
pardons or reprieves, except with the con
sent of the Secretary of the Commonwealth,
the Attorney General, the Superinten
dent of Public Instruction, and the Sec
retary of Internal Affairs, or a majority of
them."
The above are the only articles which
have been disposed of on second reading.
It may not be generally known that every
article is to be read three times; first, in
the Committee of the Whole, where it is
freely discussed and amended. It is then
reported back to the convention for a
second reading. Here, too, the sections
way be debated and amended. But when
it comes up on third reading the matter is
not susceptible of amendment unless the
majority of the convention agree to go back
into the Committee of the Whole, for gen
eral or special amendment. It is not
likely that the mind of the convention
will be changed after second reading.
VIE BILL OF RIGHTS,
The only discussion or difference of
opinion upon any section of the Bill of
Rights arose on the seventh section, whioh
is that relating to the freedom of the press 4
the article on jury trials. The old
constitutional provision in regard to the
freedom of the press was changed so for as
to permit the defendant to show that there
was no actual malice, the other requisites
to a proper publication being also proved.
Several amendments were made in com
mittee of the whole, looking to an alter
ation of the present jury system so 111 r as
to make a trial before a jury in civil cases
optional with the litigants. and that three
fourths of a jury only should be necessary
to fix a verdict. Both these propositions,
however, were voted down, and the jury
system left untouched.
WHAT THEY WILL DO.
There will be a very stringent article
against corporations. There will not be
any essential change in the judicial system
of the State. Scarcely anything more in
this regard will be done except to Increase
the number of the judges, their salary, and
their tenture of office. This latter will
cause to be made an inelegibility to hold
an office a second term, especially as to the
Supreme Court. After they have arrived
at a certain age they will be allowed a pen
sion. Also, all functions not purely judi
cial will be taken away from the judges,
such as the appointment of commissions,
&c. The article on cities and city char
ters contains a restriction against incurring
a debt of more than 2i per cent of the as
sessed valuation of the real estate within
the limits of the indebted city. The crea
tion of a sinking fund is also compelled.
The exemption of property from taxation
is prohibited, except in such cases as an
exemption by general law.
_ _ _
The article on railroads and canals is a
very elaborate one, covering fourteen sec
tions. It is, of course, impossible to tell
how this article will be finally passed.
In the opinion of Mr. Sharp, every ar
ticle might be passed on second readmy this
week, and the convention ought to adjourn
by the Fourth of July, or certainly by the
15th.
AWAITING PASSAGE.
They still have to pass the articles on
railroads and canals, education, judiciary,
militia, impeachment, future amendments,
finance, and private croporations.
THE RAILROAD ARTICLE.
By this article the free railroad law is
enacted, a law which enables any one to
build a railroad under certain general
rules. Various important restrictions are
placed on the present railroad companies
and their officers. The companies are re
strained from making any discrimination
in their charges for freight. One of the
evils complained of now is that the rail
roads will carry freight coming from be•
yond the borders of the State at a less rate
than they would carry the freight of our
own citizens. Another of the evils com
plained of was that there were rings form
ed inside of the managers and officers, who
established independent lines of transporta
tions over their own roads. These officers,
•in their official position, would therefore
give preferences to persons using their in
dividual freight lines, and delay and ob
struct those using the regular lines of the
company. There is also a provision intend
ed to meet a supposed abuse in the engag
ing by railroad companies, or the officers
and managers thereof, directly or indirect
ly, in mining or manufacturing operations
for other corporations, or of transporting
over the works of their own company.
Neither shall any street-passenger railway
be constructed within thp limits of any city
without the consent of the local authori
ties, and all corporations are made liable
for the payment of damages, consequential
as well as direct.
CONCLUSION
It is believed that we have thus, with
the aid of Mr. Sharpe, given a thorough
resumption of the work of the convention.
One of the most important points yet to be
settled is as to the mode in which the new
constitution shall be submitted to the peo
ple. There are those in the convention,
whose legal opinion is valued very highly,
who think that there exists in that body
the power to bring the consitution into
being without a submission to the vote of
the people in general. Admitting the
power, the policy of doing this is question
able. The moral effect of withholding its
ratification from the masses would be bad,
even though thelegal
power to do so ex
isted. The moral effect of a popular vote
in its favor would thus be lost, and much
discontent, and even revolution might en
sue.—Plandelphia Press.
Death of Hiram Powers,
The long illness that closed on the 27th
ult., with the death of Hiram Powers, at
Florence, has taken the most distinguished
merit this country has ever contributed to
the highest branch of art, and inscribed
one name that, though lower, is still upon
the same column with Phidius and Praxi
tiles. Centuries hence, when the aspira
tions of American art, have ripened into
realities—when the desire and effort have
found fruition, still, though that should be
perfect—Powers' name will survive as of
one who hoped and labored nobly for the
best.
His renown could hardly have been
achieved against more unfriendly condi
tions. Born at the close of July, sixty
eight years since, at Woodstock, Vermont,
he was the youngest but one in a farmer's
family of nine children. His early edu
cation was limited to the common school,
and when his father had emigrated to
Ohio, and died, the son was obliged to do
what he could for a living. He was em
ployed by a German, who taught him to
model in plaster and make busts. Then
he spent seven years in the waxwork de
partment of a museum, constantly trying
to improve as a sculptor. He spent a cou
ple of years in Washington after 1835
modelling busts, and was assisted to visit
Italy in 1837 by Mr. Longworth. Ile
settled in Florence—lived there and died
there.
Powers' first success was his 'Eve,"
produced the year after he reached Flor
ence, and pronounced by Thorwaldsen
worthy of any ambition and fit to be the
masterpiece of any sculptor. The "Greek
Slave" was completed in 1839, and follow
ed rapidly by the "Fisher Boy," "II Pen
seroso ," "Proserpine," "California,"
"America," "Washington," "Jackson,"
"Adams," "Webster," "Marshall," "Ever
ett," "Van Buren." "Calhoun," and oth
ers. The "Greek Slave," "Eve," and
"Fisher Boy" were frequently duplicated
in marble; and, though criticised sharply,
have held a high place in modern art—the
highest in American sculpture. His
"Webster," in bronze, stands in the Bos
ton Statehouse. The great praise that
Edward Everett awarded him, and that
W. W. Story endorsed, are made more
valuable by the consent of the European
artists, by whom he has been very highly
esteemed for the correctness of his princi
ples, and the felicity of his performance
in art, as well as for an unstained, honor
able, and laborious career. He was the
representative whom all Americans united
to honor in Florence; and won no ordinary
commendation from the best of other
countries.
The Pennsylvania Editors
WILKBBARRE, June 27.—At a business
meeting of the Pennsylvania editorial as
soMation this evening, the following was

THE OCEAN BALLOON VOYAGE,
interesting Letter from Professor John
Wise.
NEW Yonx, June 26, 1873.—The ar
rangement for the transatlantic balloon
voyase is now definitely settled, and set
tled in such a way as not to embarrass the
integrity of its successful termination by
any pecuniary considerations. The cost
of outfit is made purely as a contribution
to science for the promotion of the art of
aerial navigation, and a better knowledge
of the conditions of the great Aerial Ocean
in which we live and creep about, and in
which we hope before long to float from
place to place. We are not so enthusias
tic as to promise the immediate establish
ment of aerial transit lines from America
to Europe, but we do anticipate a result
that will make commercial science east its
eyes in that direction. It will open the
eyes of scientific men so as to induce them
to look at the thing with the respect that
it is fairly entitled to, and which hereto
fore has been too much looked upon as the
merest bauble of a toy—a simple, spectac
ular, foolhardy amusement. That it was
so, was to me humiliating enough—for the
duration of an ordinary lifetime ; but now,
thanks to an overruling Providence, the
thing is to be lifted up in the scale of res
pect, if not to an immediate commercial
success, at all events to a decent niche in
the arcanum of meteorological science. In
this we are as much benighted as were the
old Pcolemys in astronomy. It is not too
much to say that the investigation of the
atmosphere will lead us to au understand
ing of the true nature of malaria—the
propagation and spread of epidemics, and
to learn those periodic things we now look
upon as convulsions and disturbances of
nature, and which things scientifically re
duced will teach us how to better shield
our health and life from calamities that
we now look upon as mysterious judgments
of an angered Deity.
Should we succeed in this project, as we
really and earnestly believe we shall, it
will be a sufficient requital for a long life
of study and experience, in which I desired
to add an increment to the "increase and
diffusior of knowledge among men." And
should we not, peradventure, sail across via
atmosphere, but be cast upon the waters, we
hope to still prove how well we la id our plans
to meet the emergency of such a misfor•
tune. This part of the paraphernalia is
the symbol of difference wo have for ou •
doubting friends, who say we will
be "sure to land in the water." We have
taken this bull by the horns, and thus
conciliate that apprehension, although my
friend Donaldson thinks it may lead peo
ple to suppose we have more faith in the
water craft than in the air craft, which
we surely have not. We have so many
admonitions, and so many advises, that to
meet them all might overwhelm us with
kindness too great to bear, and so we have
determined to stick to our well-digested
and matured plan, trusting, with an
abiding faith, that we shall cross the Ru
bicon in less than three days from the mo
ment we cut loose from the earth.
Truly yours, JOII.N WISE.

The Woodhull and Claflin Trial Clos
ed.
NEW Irons, June 27.—At the trial
of Woodhull, Claflin and Blood for send
ing obscene publications through the Uni
ted States mails, Judge Blatchford decid
ed that under the act of 1872 a weekly or
daily newspaper was not intended to be in
cluded among the lists of obscene publica
tions. In the act of 1873 the word "pa
per" is inserted and was intended to in
clude a newspaper, which, as he construed
the previous acts on the subject, was not
included in the statutes. The indictment
in the present case was drawn under the
statute of 1872, and the prosecution must
consequently fall. The jury then render
ed a verdict of not guilty.

The imperial postage stamps are still

A WORD TO WORKING PEOPLE OF
BOTH SEXES.—Mechanies, artisans, facto
ry hands, and people who labor for a liv
ing, find it very difficult if not impossible
to keep the hands free from stain. Hand
Sapolio will not only remove every particle
of stain, and what is called "grained in
dirt," but it will also keep the skin soft
and pliable, rendering the muscular action
as quick and easy as is the case with those
who do not perform hand labor. It is only
10 and 15 cents a cake, according to size.
Every mechanic should use it constantly
in place of all other soaps.

Centaur Liniment.
There Is no pain which the Centaur Liniment will not
relieve, no swelling it will not subdue, and no lameness
which it will not cure. This is strong language, but it is
true. Where the pats are not gone, its effects are mar-
velous. It has produced more cures of rheumatism, Den
ralgia, lock jaw, palsy, sprains, swellings, caked breasts,
scalds, burns, salt-rheum, ear-ache, &c., upon the human
frame, and of strains, spavin, gall, &c., upon animals in
one year than have all other pretended remedies since the
world began. It is a counter-irritant, an all-healing pain
reliever. Cripples throw away their crutches, the lame
walk, poisonous bites are rendgred harmless, and the
wounded are healed without a scar. It is no humbug. The
The recipe is published around each bottle. It is selling
as no article ever before sold, and it sells because it does
just what it pretends to do. Those who now suffer from
rheumatism, pain or swelling, deserve to suffer if they
will not use Centaur Liniment. Slone than 1000 cern&
cater of remarkable cures, including frozen limbs, chron
ic rheumatism, gout, running tumors, &c., hare been re
ceived. We will send a circular containg certificates, the
receipt, &c., gratis, to any one requesting it. One bottle
of the yellow wrapper Centaur Liniment is worth one
hundred dollars for spavined or sweenied horses and
mules, or for screw-worm from sheep. Stock owners—this
lin i ment is worth your attention. No family should be
without Centant Liniment. Price CO cents a bottle, largo
