is. The Bedford County Press has been
enlarged and otherwise improved. It is
one of the sprightliest papers received at
this office. We are glad to note its pros
perity.
isk. The elections held last week were
devoid of general interest, and consequent
ly our Democratic friends made con
siderable gains, which has so elated them
that they are wild. The Republicans have
lost very little of real value, and have
learned that their indifference is seized
'pen, by the Democrats, to infuse a little
life into their poor, old, demoralized car
cass. Next ye►r there will be something
worth fighting for, and the Republican
party will be intact again.
am. The Secretary of the Common
wealth has determined to publish the New
Constitution, as provided by Act of the
General Assembly, and we will, therefore,
present it entire to our readers next week.
It is quite a lengthy document, but contains
only such provisions as are absolutely
necessary to meet the requirements of the
various conflicting interests which our
grand old Commonwealth has within her
extended limits. We had entirely 'out
grown our old clothes and a new dress be
came almost abe )lutely necessary. The
old suit did not scarcely in a single par
ticular. The new one has been made to
fit neatly, from head to foot, and those
who are best qualified to judge, say that
it is the best fit in the Union. There may
be, here and there, a small piece about the
quality of which people may differ, but as
a whole, it is very satisfactory. If there
should be a faulty piece, why, of course,
it can be tested, and, if found deficient, or
worthless, it can be replaced by good and
substantial material, in the future. We
are satisfied that, in the main, it is just
what our people want.
The New Constitution
The following is a synopsis of the more
important provisions of the constitution
which is to be submitted to the people on
the 16th of December next:
THE LEGISLATURE.
The house will be increased to not IPss
than 200 members, and the senate will
contain 50—Philadelphia's representation
being 38 members and 8 senators. The
sessions are to be biennial instead of an
nual; terms of senators will be four years
and members of the house two. Salary
and mileage to be fixed by law, with the
provision that during the term for which
the members are sitting they shall not in
crease their salaries. In apportioning the
house each county shall have one member
at least, and an additional member for
every 17,000 inhabitants. The cities are
to have separate districts, but no district
shall have more than four representa
tives.
One important provision requires every
bill to be read on three different days be
fore its final passage, and on the latter the
vote is to be taken by yeas and nays,
which are to be recorded on the journal,
and a majority of the members are required
to vote on the final passage.
Section seven prohibits special or local
legislation in all the cases which heretofore
appeared objectionable. Any local or spe
cial bills not covered by this prohibition
are required to be advertised for at least
thirty days prior to their introduction in
the locality where they are to take effect.
Section twelve relates to contracts for
providing the legislature with stationery,
etc. It provides that the contract shall be
awarded to the lowest bidder, and that no
member shall be directly or indirectly in
terested in such contract. The contracts
are to be approved by the auditor general,
state treasurer, governor, and lieutenant
governor. Appropriation bills are to em
brace nothing but the ordinary expenses
of the executive, legislative and judiciary
departments, interest on public debt and
public school fund. All other appropria
tions are to be made special bills.
Section nineteen prohibits investments
of trust funds by executors, administra
tors and guardians in bonds and stocks of
any private corporation, and such acts now
existing are voidable.
The above are among the prominent
changes of the article on legislation.
THE EXECUTIVE.
This article provides for the increasing
of the term of office of the governor from
three to four years, and also for the elec
tion of a lieutenant governor, who shall be
president of the senate. The article pro
vides for the appointment of a board of
pardons, consisting of the governor, lieu
tenant governor, secretary of the common
wealth, attorney general and secretary of
internal affairs. (This latter officer takes
the place of that of the present surveyor
general, whose office is abolished.)
One of the most important provisions is
that which allows the governor to veto any
item in any appropriation, and approve
the balance of the bill.
The secretary of the internal affairs will
serve a term of four years, auditor general
three years, and state treasurer two years.
Auditor general and state treasurer to be
incapacitated from holding the same office
for two consecutive terms.
THE JUDICIARY
The Supreme Court will be increased
from five to seven judges, whose term of
office will be twenty-one instead of fifteen
years. They are not eligible for re-elec
tion.
Sections five and six relate to Philadel
phia and Allegheny county courts.
Provisions are made that all cases of fe
lonious homicide and other criminal mat
ters provided for by law may be removed
to the Supreme Court for review.
Another provides that parties by agree
ment filed, may in any civil case dispense
with trial by jury, and submit the same
for the decision of the oourt..
The most important provision in this ar.
tide is that which allows a separate judic
ial district for every 40,000 inhabitants.
The judges are required to audit and set
tle administrators' and decedents' aceouuts
free of cost to the parties.
Whenever two judges of the Supreme
Court are to be chosen for the same term
of service, each voter shall vote for -one
only; and when three are to be chosen he
shall vote for no more than two, and can
didates highest in vote shall be declared
elected.
SUFFRAGE AND ELECTION.
The general election is to be changed
from the second Tuesday in October to the
first Tuesday in November.
And the local elections will be held on
the third Tuesday in February, at which
the city ward, borough and township offi
cers are to be elected. The article requires
a residence of each voter of at least two
months in the district to entitle him to a
vote, and in the case of foreigners they
must be citizens of the United States for
one month to entitle them to the elective
franchise.
An important provision is that every
ballot shall be numbered and recorded on
the list of voters opposite the name of the
elector. Another section refers all con
tested elections to the courts, including the
election of the electors for President and
vice president of the United States.
TAXATION AND FINANCE.
This article requires that all taxation
shall be uniform up3n the same class of
subjects, and shall be levied and collected
under general law.
It provides that the legislature shall
continue and maintain the sinking fund,
pay the interest of the public debt, and
annually reduce the principal not less than
$250,000. It prohibits the use of the
sinking fund for any other purpose. It
declares (he making of capital out of the
public moneys by any of the officers of the
state or member of general assembly a
criminal offense.
EDUCATION.
The legistature is required to maintain
a thorough and efficient system of public
schools, and appropriate $1,000,000, an
nually for that purriose. Women over
twenty-one years of age are eligible for
any office under the school laws. •
COUNTY OFFICERS.
County officers are to be salaried, and
the fees which they are authorized to re
ceive shall be paid into the state or county
treasury. Provisions are made for the
election of three county commisioners and
three auditors on the limited vote system,
giving the minority a representation in
each board.
PRIVATE CORPORATI ONS.
This article provides that the cumulative
system of voting shall be applied to the
election of directors and managers.
RAILROADS AND CANALS,
This article authorizes any association
or corporation to organize for the purpose
of constructing and operating a railroad or
canal between any points in this state. It
prohibits railroads and canal companies
from making any undue or unreasonable
discrimination in freight charges, and lim
its the charge for freight in the same di
rection to an amount not exceeding the
charge to a more distant station.
It also prohibits the consolidation of
railroads and canals with competing lines
by lease or otherwise, and will not allow
any company doing the business of a
common carrier to engage in any other
business, or to hold or acquire lands.
No officer of any railroad or canal com
pany shall furnish materials or supplies for
such company; and no company shall make
any discrimination in charges or facilities
between transportation companies and in
dividuals. No free passes shall be granted
except to officers and employees of such
company, and no passenger railway in any
city shall extend or construct their road
without the consent of the local authori
ties
The Fire Fiend
Destructive Fire—Miraculous Escapes
from, Death—The State Printing Office
in Ruins—A Number of Buildings Con
sumed—Loss Estimated at $200,000.
HARRISBURG, Nov. s.—About eleven
o'clock this forenoon the fire alarm bells
of this city sent forth a startling peal, in
forming the citizens that a conflagration
was in progress. An investigation devel
oped the fact that the State printing office
and bindery, situate on Third street and
Blackberry alley, was in flames. The fire
men responded quickly; their apparatus
was soon at the scene of destruction. The
men made desperate efforts to stay the
flames, but without avail.
It soon became evident that nothing
would save the building. Huge volumes
of smoke poured from the windows of the
structure, front which emerged the em
ployees of the establishment. There are
about one hundred and eighty-five persons
employed in it, and as there was but one
stairway, and that close by the elevator,
through which the flames and smoke rush
ed from floor to floor, a number of the
workmen and women were compelled to
seek egress through the windows.
A number of girls belonging to the bind
ery forced the iron window frames on the
second floor, through which they escaped
to the cornice on the Third street front,
and were taken from thence to the ground
by means of ladders, although one or two
jumped (one from the second and one from
the third story) to the gl °utri and esca
ped with slight bruises. Several of the
male employees received bruises and
scratches in the rush for safety. As far
as we can learn, all the persons in the es
tablishment at the time escaped, which
may be considered a miracle under the
circumstances. The building was built to
be fire`proof, but the fallacy of this idea
was clearly proven in this instance.
In the meantime the flames spread to
the adjoining buildings on Third street
and Blackberry alley. Swartz's livery
stable, the Lochiel hotel and the row of
brick residences on the opposite side of
Third street, were all in danger. Every
effort was made to save the Lochiel, which
was at last accomplished.
Suddenly the cry went front mouth to
mouth, "The walls will fall !" when a rush
from danger was made by those in the vi
cinity. Without warning the walls slowly
leaned away from the centre, and gather
ing momentum as they fell, crushed to the
ground in a confused mass of bricks and
cinders. The front wall fell toward the
opposite side of the street, knocking in
the front of one of the houses there, occu
pied by Mr. John Stahl, and scraping and
damaging the one occupied by Anthony
King from top to bottom. The street
was filled with bricks, yet strange to say
no one was seriously injured.
The fire originated in the paper shaving
pile in the cellar, near the elevator. It is
supposed to have been caused by sponta
neous combustion, as there was no fire
used near the place where it started.
The following is a list of buildings de
stroyed : State Printing office, Swartz's
livery stable, Lentz's grocery, dwelling
occupied by George Swartz, building oc
cupied by John A. Stahl and McCormick's
stable, adjoining Mr. Bergner's stable.—
The loss by this fire will be severely Mt,
as the printing office was not insured.—
Much household property was also de
stroyed in the sudden transit to a place of
safety. The estimated loss is $260,000.
Among the property destroyed were
1,500 copies of 1,200 pages of the Consti
tutional Convention journal ; 20,000 school
reports complete; about 10,000 copies of
Constitutional Convention debates contain
ing seven volumes; 6,000 copies Soldiers'
Orphan reports; 5,000 Teachers' Monthly
reports; 5,000 copies of school laws; a
portion of the State Treasurer's reports
and bureau of statistics, and many thous
and school books, of the Osgood's series,
which were printed at this office. The
manushript of the last four days' proceed
ings o# the Constitutional Convention were
also destroyed. Among the articles burned
were the debates which the Constitutional
Convention contracted to take off the hands
of Mr. Singerly at $1.30 a copy, or about
$19,000 in all. The loss in the debates is
estimated at $50,000. Thousands of dol
lars worth of paper belonging to the State
was burned. The entire loss by the de
struction of the building and contents are
$175,000, all of which will fall on Mr.
Singerly. There being no insurance there
are rumors that the loss will render Mr.
Singerly insolvent.

A Circular to the ntembets of the
Convention
The executive committee of the consti
tutional convention has authorized the
transmission of this circular to the mem
bers of the convention.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ROOMS, PHI
LADELPHIA, Nov. 5, 1873.—Sir : The ex
ecutive committee appointed by the con
vention having conferred concerning the
duties assigned to them, have deemed it
expedient to address a communication to
each member of the convention upon the
fol owing points, viz :
First. To communicate with the county
comuisssioners in reference to the duties
assigned them by the ordinance of sub
mission.
Second. What assistance may be ex
pected from the local press ?
Third. To what extent will the county
committees co-operate ?
Fourth. The prevailing sentiment re
specting the adoption of the constitution.
Fifth. Are public meetings desirable,
and at what points, and when ?
They further urge upon the members of
the convention the necessity for personal
effort in giving information to the publie
by such means as they may deem best
adapted to their respective localities and
to local circumstances, and to this end
suggest the propriety of each member giv
ing personal attention to the organization
of such canvass as will insure the largest
vote and the fullest understanding of the
merit of the new constitution. You are
requested to communicate with this com
mittee at your earliest convenience, and to
suggest such matters touching the most
effectual mode of submitting the work as
you may deem expedient. It is desirable
to secure the co-operation of the respective
county committees in obtaining a full vote,
and such further assistance as they may
think proper to render.
Please address your reply to the chair
man of the convention at the convention
hall. W. P. ARMSTRONG, Chairman.

In the valley of Mahoning is situated
this bTutiful town of 2,000 inhabitants,
and being situated on a small elevation,
and surrounded by a beautiful and fertile
country, it becomes attractive and worthy
of note. In the centre of the town stands
Westminster College, that noted seat of
learning, which has sent forth many high
ly educated men and women, who are now
filling places of honor and trust, not only
in America but - also in many other parts
of the world; some are missionaries in
India, Egypt, China and many other pla
ces. Westminster has had her troubles,
her trials and misfortunes, along with oth
er institutions; but notwithstanding all
she has come out victorious, and now ranks
among the first-class institutions of Amer
ica, and by the earnest labors of Rev. E.
T. Jeffries, D. D., President, she stands
forth as a shining star which casts its rays
of light over every nation.
Connected with the institution is a lec
ture association, called the "Westminster
Lecture Association '
" through which we
have been furnished with some first-class
lectures, delivered by Elihu Burritt, Gen.
Kilpatrick, Prof: Kidd, the Fat Contribu
tor, and others. Gen. Kilpatrick, a short
time since, gave us an eloquent lecture on
the subject, "The American Stump." The
lecture was not only highly entertaining,
but also a great literary treat, and was
greatly appreciated by all.

APPLETONS'
AMERICAN CYCLOPEDIA
NEW REVISED EDITION.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type, and illustrated
with Several Thousand Engravings and Mope.
The work originally published under the title of
Toe New AMERICAN CYCLOPEDIA was completed
in 1863, since which time the wide circulation
which it has attained in all parts of the United
States, and the signal developments which have
taken place in every branch of science, literature
and art, have induced the editors and publishers
to submit it to an exact and thorough revision,
and to issue a new edition entitled THE AMERICAN
CYCLOPEDIA.
- Within the last ten years the progress of discov
ery in every department of knowledge has made a
new work of reference an imperative want.
The movement of politieal affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful
application to the industrial and useful arts and
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our owncountry, which
was at its height when the last volume of the old
work appeared, has happily been ended, and a new
course of commercial and industrial activity has
been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowledge
have been made by the indefatigable explorers of
Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last decade,
with the natural result of the lapse of time, have
brought into public view a multitude of new men,
whose names are in every one's mouth, and of
whose lives every one is curious to know the par
ticulars. Great battles bare been fought and im
portant sieges maintained, of which the details are
as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the
transient publications of the day, but which'ougbt
now to take their place in permanent and authen
tic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possible
dates, and to furnish an accurate account of the
most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh
production in literature, and of the newest inven
tions in the practical arts,
as well as to give a
succinct and original record of the progress of po
litical and historical events.
The work has been begun after long and careful
preliminary labor, and with the most ample re
sources for carrying it on to a successful termina
tion.
None of the original stereotype plates have been
need, but every page has been printed on new
type, forming in fact a new Cyclopwdia, with the
same plan and compass as its predecessor, but
with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with
such improvements in its composition as have
been suggested by longer experience and enlarged
knowledge.
The illustrations which are introduced for the
first time in the present edition have been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
lucidity and force to the explanations in the text.
They embrace all branches of science and of natu
ral history, and depict the most famous and re
markable features of scenery, architecture and art,
as well as the various processes of mechanics and
manufacturers. Although intended for instruction
rather than embellishment, no pains have been
spared to insure their artistic excellence; the cost
of their execution is enormous and it is believed
they will find a welcome reception as an admire
blefeature of the Cycloptedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

THE SUN.
WEEKLY, SEMI-WEEKLY AND DAILY.
THE WEEKLY SUN is too widely known to
require any extended recommendation; but the
reasons which have already given it fifty thousand
subscribers, and which will, we hope, give it many
thousands more, are briefly as follows:
It is a first-rate newspaper. All the news of the
day will be found in it, condensed when unim
portant, at full length when of moment, and always
presented in a clear, intelligible and interesting
manner. .
It is a first-rate family paper, full of entertain
ing and instructive reading of every kind, but
containing nothing that can offend the must deli
cate and scrupulous taste.
It is a first-rate story paper. The best tales and
romances of current literature are carefully selected
and legibly pinta:. in its pages.
It is a trot-rate agricultural paper. The most
fresh and instructive articles on agricultural topics
regularly appear in this department.
It is an independent political paper, belonging
to no party and wearing no collar. It fights for
principle, and for the election of the best men to
office. It especially devotes its energies to the
exposure of the great corruptions thatnow weaken
and disgrace our country, and threaten to under
mine republican institutions altogether. It has no
fear of knaves, and asks no favors from their sup
porters.
It reports the fashions for the ladies and the
markets for the men, especially the cattle-markets,
to which it pays particular attention.
Finally, it is the cheapest paperpublished. One
dollar a year will secure it for any subscriber. It
is not necessary to get up a club in order to have
THE WEEKLY SUN at this rate. Any one who
sends a single dollar will get the paper for a year.
We have no traveling agents.

colums. Only $l.OO a year. No discounts from
this rate.

New To-Day
P ROSPECTUS FOR 1874—SEVENTU TEAR
THE aLDINE,
An Illustrated Monthly journal, universally ad
mitted to be the Handsomest Periodical in
the World. A Representative and
Champion of American
'Fade.
Not for Sale in Book or News Stores
THE ALDINE, while issued with all the reg
ularity, has none of the temporary or timely inter
est characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It is
an elegant miscellany of pure, light and graceful
literature ; and a collection of pictures, the rarest
specimens of artistic skill, in black and nhife.
Although each succeeding number affords a fresh
pleasure to its friends, the real value and beauty
of THE ALDINE will be most appreciated after
it has been bound up at the close of the year.
While other publications may claim superior
cheapness as compared with rivals of a similar
class, THE ALDINE is a unique and original
conception—alone and unapproached—absolutely
without competition in price or character. The
pessessor of a complete volume cannot duplicate
the quantity of fine paper and engravings in any
other shape or number of volumes for ten times
its cast; and then, there are the chromos, besides!
ART DEPARTMENT, 1574.
The illustrations of THE ALDINE hare won
a world-wido reputation, and in the art centres of
Europe it is an admitted fact that its wood cuts
are examples of the highest perfection ever at
tained. The common prejudice in favor of "steel
plates," is rapidly yielding to a more educated
and discriminating taste which recognizes the ad
vantages of superior artistic quality with greater
facilities of production. The wood-cuts of THE
ALDINE possess all the delicacy and elaborate
finish of the most costly steel plate, while they af
ford a better rendering of the artist's original.
_ .
To fully realize the wonderfulwork which THE
ALDINE is doing for the cause of the art culture
in America, it is only necessary to' consider the
cost to the people of any other decent representa
tions of the productions of great pail tern.
In addition to designs by the members of the
National Academy, and other noted American
artiste, THE ALDINE will reproduce examples
of the best foreign masters, selected with a view
to the highest artistic success and greatest general
interest. Thus the subscriber of THE ALDINE
will, at a trilling cost, enjoy in his own home the
pleasures and refining influences of true art.
The quarterly tinted plates for 1874 will be by
Thomas Moran and J. D. Woodward.
The Christmas issue for 1374 will contain spe
cial designs appropriate to the season, by our best
artists, and will surpass in attractions any of its
predecessors.
PREMIUM FOR 1874.
Every subscriber to The Aldine for the year
1874 will receive a pair of chromes. The original
pictures were printed in oil for the publishers of
The Aldine, by Thomas Moran, whose great Colo
rado picture was purchased by Congress for ten
thousand dollars. The subjects were chosen to
represent "The East" and The West." One is a
view in the White Mountains, New Hampshire;
the other gives The Cliffs of the Green River,
Wyoming Territory. The difference in the nature
of the scenes themselves is a pleasing contrast,
and affords a good display of the artist's scope
and coloring. The chromes are each worked from
thirty distinct plates, and are in size (I2x18) and
appearance exact fac-similes of the originals. The
presentation of a worthy example of America's
greatest landscape printer to the subscribers of
The Aldine was a bold but peculiarly happy idea,
and its successful realization is attested by the
following testimonial, over the signature of Mr.
Moran himself.
NEWARK, N. J., Sept. 20, 1873.
MesiTs. JAMES SUTTON Jc Co.
Gentlemen.—l am delighted with the proofs in
color of your chromoe. They are wonderfully suc
cessful representationq by mechanical process of
the original paintings.
Very respeetfully,
(Signed,) THOS. MORAN.
These chromos aro in every sense American.
They are by an original American process, with
material of American manufacture, from designs
of American scenery by an American painter, and
presented to subscribers to the first successfu
American Art Journal. If no better because of all
this, they will certainly possess an interest no for
eign production can inspire, and neither are they
any the worse if by reason of peculiar facilities of
production they cost the publishers only a trifle,
while equal in every respect to other chromes that
are sold single for double the subscription price of
The Aldine. Persons of taste will prize these pic
tures for themselves—not for the price they did
or did not cost, and will a;opreciate the enterprise
that renders their distribution possible.
If any subscriber should indicate a preference
for a figure subject, the publishers will send
"Theughta of Ileme,"wnew and beautiful chrome
14:20 inches, representing a little Italian exile
whose speaking eyes betray the longings of his
heart."
TERMS
$5 per annum, in advance, with Oil Chromes free.
For FIFTY CENTS extra, the chromes will be
sent mounted, varnished, and prepaid by mail.
The Aldine will, hereafter, be obtained only by
subscription. There will be no reduced or club
rate; cash for subscriptions must be to the pub
lishers direct, or handed to the local canvasser,
without responsibility to the publishers, except in
cases where the certifioate is given, bearing the
