THE POTATO BUGS SQUELCHED.
WOODS' LITTLE GAME PLAYED.
The election yesterday resulted in a glo
rious victory in the State. Maekey's
majority may be 50.000. judging from the
majorities reported. Gordon is 10,000
or 15.000 short in Philadolphia, but may
make it up in the western part of the
State.
In the county the conteu was warm,
and above an average vote polled. Burch
inell left Huntingdon with a majority of
294, and has continued to gain on Lane's
vote of last Fall, in the districts heard
from, save , in Porter and Cass. Porter did
badly, very badly. A majority is reported
for McAteer there. Burchinell is un
doubtedly elected by from 300 to 500.
The balance of the Regular ticket is also
elected by small majorities. We will
publish the official vote in our next.
IMMENSE INCREASE.—The Pennsylva
nia railroad company furnishes the follow
ing figures of the earnings for the month
of August and for the eight months of the
year, compared with the earnings in the
same time last year : Earnings in August,
1873, $1,996,133.13; name mouth last
year,51,862,100.45 ; increase $134,032.70.
Earnings from January 1, 1873, to Sep
tember 1, 1873, $16,252,705.02; same pe
riod last year, $14,148,624.32; increase,
$2,104,080.70. The same ratio of increase
for the remainder of the year will show an
increase for 1873 over that of 1872 of
more than three millions of dollar s. The
loan recently so satisfactorily negotiated
by the company in England is sufficient to
liquidate all the company's current liabili
ties, leaving entire the large and steadily
increasing net revenues to the payment of
interest and the usual semi-annual five per
cent. dividends, which at present there is
no reason to doubt will be continued.

MEMPHIS, TENN., Oct. 14, 1873.
There is no apparent abatement of the yel
low fever here, but the disease is'evident
ly on the increase. The demand for nur
ses is yet greater than the supply, and
Mobile and New Orleans are being drawn
upon and are supplying additional details,
The disease is not confined to any particu

the plague is "Happy Hollow.' lt is el.e.
fully avoided and his being thoroughly
overhauled and disinfected by the board of
health. The Howard citizens, Relief, Odd
Fellows. Masons, the German and all other
relief associations, are actively engaged in
the work of administering to the sick and
providing for the distressed, the chief dif
ficulty being to provide temporary homes
for the great number of helpless children
made orphans by the terrible ravages of
the fever. As yet, ail have been provided
for to a limited extent, but as each day in;
creases the number, oor means at hand
are necessarily diminshed, and what the
result will be in another week is beyond
present calculation. The Masons of Mem
phis are in finanicial distress on account of
the heavy expenses they have incurred,
having buried twenty of their number, and
having new on hand fifty-two cases.
The Waltham Infirmary, under the man
agement of the Howard Association, with
Dr. L. P. Blackburn• in charge is deing
good work. Mrs. General W. J. Smith
and Messrs C. Canning Smith and James
B. Lawrence are among the new cases re
ported to-day. Large gangs of laborers
were on the streets today with brooms
and shovels, and as far as they progressed
the pavement looks as clean as a new pin,
but smells greatly of disinfectants. The
fever rages with unbated malignity, and
no hopes are entertained of its early dis
appearance. Many citizens left yesterday.
The total of contributions received by the
Howard Association to-day amounts to
$4BB.
The daily espouses of this Association
are $l,OOO and this amount is being hour
ly increased by extended operations in be
half of the suffering people. There is great
destitUtion among the poor and all kinds
of contributions prove most acceptable.
Every effort is being made to thoroughly
disinfect the city.
_ .
The President of the Howard Associa
tion to-day issued the following. We re
turn heartfelt thanks to our sister cities
and towns for the courteous aid extended
to us in the hour of sadness and death.
From Boston to San Francisco and
from Lansing to New Orleans—from al
most every hamlet in the land, even from
far off England has come such evidences
of sympathy as to make our hearts over
flow with gratitude, binding us as it does
to them with the dearest ties.
The fever still continues its march
among us, increasing day by day, taking
rich and poor. God only knows where it
will end. Our receipts for the present
are ample to meet our wants and we fell
assured that all the aid we need will be
fortheOming.
There have been three hundred appli
cations to the St. Peter's Orphan Asylum,
by orphans made so by the ravages of the
fever. The sextons provided fur as many
as they were able, but were forced to turn
many away unprovided for.
The following touching appeal will ap
pear in the papers of this city to-morrow :
To Knights Templar of the United
states : In this our dire extremity, any
relief you can contribute will be thankful
ly received.

MR. EDITOR:-My attention has just
been called to an editorial iu your issue
of September 17th, in which you refer
to the movement to secure a more full
acknowledgment of God and the Christian
religion in our national Constitution, and
express your decided disapproval of the
measure, and give a series of resolutions
adopted by the Centre Baptist Association
expressing their opposition to it :
Those engaged in this measure you are
pleased to st yle " a few crack-brained
fanatics." This sounds like language we
were once accustomed to hear from those
south of " Mason and Dixon," when they
attempted to crush the rising spirit of
liberty and equal rights in our laud, and
you it may be, were counted in with the
" Few eiturVbsimed fanatics" of that day.
But you know Apt didn't answer our
arguments, or drive .us to . the wall, for in
the face of this opposition and rnproach,
our cause grew, uud ultimately asserke4 its
power in the overthrow of the enemy.
And be assured the men who are engaged
in this measure will be neither frightened
nor overpowered by such epithets.
Now, who are - some ok those men of
whom you speak so, and who are advoca
ting a cause which. you say, "is opposed
by -ail sensible men."
• Among the leaders and friends are snob
men as Chief 'justice Strong, Hon. Felix
R. Rrunot,..ll,ev. Stephen H. Tyng, D. D.,
Professor Taylor Lewis, LL. D., Rev.
Jonathan Edwards, D. D.. Rev. T. L.
Cuter, D. D.. Rev. J. IL Mcllvaine, D. D.
Rev. A. D. Mayo, D. D. These are a few
of your " crack-brained fanatics," and I
could give you scores of names equal in
position and influence, and intellectual and
moral power. No, sir, this cause numbers
among its advocates many men of the
clearest minds and highest culture, and
men who are eminently devoted to their
country and the best interests of their
fellow-men. They are men who know
whereof they affirm, and. are hold enough
to assert *hat they believe: They have
counted the cost; they know that they
have entered the lists for a powerful em
flict with the hosts of darkness, but they
have all confidence in the truth, and in
Ilitu " whose they are, and whom they
serve."
The National Association, which was
organized fur the purpose of advancing
this .reform. has been in existence about
ten years. It has held its yearly mectings
in our. largest cities. New York, Phildel
phia, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh. It has
been attended by leading mer. and dele
gates from a large majority of the States,
and by men of every political and religious
faith, and another convention is called to
meet in Pittsburg in the month of Janu
ary. They are in earnest, and will urge
on this reform with all the power they can
command.
Now, what do these men propose to
accomplish ? What is their object ? Is
it the union of State and Church, such as
is seen in Great Britain and other parts of
Europe, with the design of•seauring for
the Church the control and patronage of
civil government ? Yes ! any the oppon
ents of the cause, this, in a word, is their
design ; they are seeking to bring about a
union of Church and State. This, I doubt
not, is your view of the matter, and this
is what you say, or wish to say is " oppos
ed by all sensible men." This cry was
raised by the enemies of Christianity who
wish to have it rooted out of our country,
and at least 'some Christians have come
to believe it. But let me assure you
that nothing could be further from the
desire and purpose, of the advocates of
this cause, and were such au attempt made
it would find no more earnest and persis
tent opponents than they would be. And
this is mt. a necessary consequence of
what they desire. Were the objects of
this Association fully accompliShed it would
still be true in the fullest sense in which
the Saviour intended his words to be un
ilerstood : "Thy kingdom is not of this
world.
In another communication, with your
permission, I will endeavor to show briefly
the design of this measure.
Let one say, Mr. Editor, if I had seen
this in an infidel sheet I would have paid
no attention to it., but I hare always re
garded your paper as taking high grounds
in favor of religion, for a secular paper,
and I am pained to see you in this, taking
sides with the enemy. t!,
JUNIATA. Towssmr, September 12, 1873.
ED. JOORNAL.—Dear Sir promised, in a
previous letter, that I would write again when
I would get to Kansas, but, for certain reasons,
deferred it till after I arrived home. I, with
my daughters, left the beautiful city of Omaha
on the 12th of August, at 3 o'clock, p. tn., on
the Kansas City, St. Joseph and Council Bluff
Railroad, bound for Ft. Scott, in the State of
Kansas, a distance of 298 miles, where we ar•
rived on the 13th, and at which place I met
my brother, who I had not seen for twenty
years, and on account of our long absence
from each other we did not recognize each
other for some time. After having a little
friendly chat we started for my brother's
home, a aists-nce of eleven miles west front
Fort Seott,:'l found a healthy, large family,
thirteen in 'number. In passing froM Omaha
to Fort Scoitove were transferred from Omaha
to . Council Bluffs, lows, then down the north
east side of the . Missouri River to Kansas City,
leaving a beautiful valley of the richest soil
between them. Kansas City is noted for its
being built on the top of is bluff, and is quite
a business place.
Now as to the State of Kaneas. I expected
to see it without stone, and uniformity of soil
like most of the Western States, but in this
I was mistaken. The people there call it
4, spotted," and I think it a name well applied.
It is spotted in various ways. I have traveled
considerably in the southeastern portion of
the State, and would frequently senratene
fences and stone houses, and flat roc*, level
with the surface of the ground, tbatwould
cover acres, this you will generally see on up
or rolling lands. On the low and flat lands,
especially that portion lying by the creeks, is
of a deep, rich soil, and produces well, whilst.
the up-land is unproductive. The water is
also differeht in quality; some hard, some
soft, and some sulphury. Here fruit trees
appear to grow rapidly, especially that of the
peach, but there are no peaches this season.
The settlers of this (Bourbon county) are
principally Pennsylvanians, and quite a num
ber of them are from Huntingdon county.
Fort Scott is about the size of Huntingdon.
It derives its name from General Scott, who
had a fight there at the time of the Mexican
On the 3d of September we took the train
at Fort Scott, on the Missouri River, Port
Scott and Gulf Railroad, homeward bound,
ninety-eight miles to Kansas. City, at which
point we changed cars, and took the Vandalia
route to St. Louis, a distance of two hundred
and secenty-five miles, at which point we were
transferred through the city and across the
great Mississippi River to the Panhandle route,
thence to Indianapolis, a distance of two
hundred and thirty-eight miles, and from that
point to Columbus, a distance of two hundred
and sixty miles, and from that point to Pitts
burgh, a distance of one hundred and ninety
three miles, and from that point to Hunting
don, a distance of one hundred and six y
miles, making a total distance of about one
thousand two hundred and twenty-four miles
from Fort Scott to HUntingdon.
In leaving Kansas City w e passed through
the central portion of the State of Missouri,
from west to east. This State abounds with
timber of the white oak, poplar, and black
walnut kind, and the land, when cleared, pro
duces corn, tobacco, and hemp in abundance,
and recently large quantities of minerals of
various kinds have been discovered.
The city of St, Louis is situated on the west
ern banks of the great Mississippi River, and
is the largest city,in the West. There we see
an enormous railroad bridge across the Mis
sissippi River, built at the enormous expense
of three millions of dollars, and which is
rapidly appronehidg
.completion, and when
finished will put an end to that long and
troublesome way of transferring passengers
across the Mississippi River by ferry-boats.
We then pass through the eastern portion of
Illinois and Indiana via Indianapolis, the cap
ital 'of Indium, auti also through Ohio by
Columbus, which is the capital of Ohio, and
from that point over the rallies aa4 under the
mountains to Pittsburg, and there changed
cars for Tiontingdon, at which place we arri•
ved on Friday, Septomber fitli, at
P. st., from where we started oe two months
age, baring traveled over eight SMtes.
It appears to me that there are two eatrones
in the West—wet and dry weather. When it
does rain it rains for months at a time, and
when dry it would be dry for months together.
I was informed in Nebraska that there was
a time, some years ago, that it did not rain
for the space of eighteen months. And so
with regard to cold and heat. • :
While I Was in liansa,, is the month of
August, I thought it was fearful hot, the ther
mometer was up -to one hundred and fifteen
to one hundrel and twenty de7rees in the
shade. It has been very dry in the West this
season. The corn crops had a good appear
ance is the early part of the season, Ina when
the draught conics it dried everything up before
it matured. The wheat crops were spotted
and considered not very good. Fruit gener
ally scarce.
Now, as I have seen the West, I hare a
great anxiety fer all the readers of this letter
to take a visit to the great, and almost bound
less region, to see the beautiful country that
Providence has yet in reservation for His
people whilst living on this earth. I feel
confident that any perseu taking a trip to see
the Great West will not regret the time and
cost. It cost me, with my daughters, the net
little sum of $4O. hut I do not', in the least,
regret it.

VINEGAR BITTERS.
PURELY' VEGETABE.
FREE FROM ALCOHOL.
Dr. J. Walker's California Vinegar Bit
ters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made
ehiefly . frem the native herbs found on the lower
ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
nia, the medicinal properties of which are extrac
ted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The
question is almost daily halted, "What is the
cause of the unparalleled success of Vinegar Bit
ters?" Our answer is. that they remove the clause
of disease, and the patient recovers his health.
They are the great blued purifier and a lite-giving
principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of
the system. Never before in the history of the
world has a medielne been compounded possessing
the remarkable' qualities of Vinegar Bitters in
healing the sick of every disease man is heir to.
They are a gentle Purgative as well as Tonic., re
lieving Congestion or Inflamation of the Liver
and Visceral Organ . •, in Bilious Diseases.
Pr. Walker's California Vinegar Bit
ters act on all these cases in a similar manner.
By purifying the Blood they remove the caller,.
and by resolving away the effects of the inflamma
tion (the tubuecular deposits) the affected parte.
receive health, and a permanent cure is affected_
If men will enjoy good health, let them use Vin
egar Bitters as a medicine, and avoid the use of
alcoholic stimulants in every form.
