BRAZEN EFFRONTERY.
Whom the gods would deqroy
They first make mad.
EDITOR
This trite proverb must have suggested
itself to every well-informed reader of last
week's Globe. Ten or twelve mortal col
umns of that debased sheet, the property
of a baser proprietor, was taken up with
fulsome and nauseating flattery of A. L.
Guss, a name that is a hissing and a bye
word in the mouth of every virtuous man
and woman in the community; and yet,
who has the audacity, in the face of this
glaring faCt, to wheedle the innocent boys
and girls—that under the dire necessity of
penniless mothers—have becomethe wards
of the State—to come upon the stage and
defend him from the most debasing crim
inal charges, under the guise of eqablish
ing an honorable society. If it were pos
sible to write a history of all that is im
moral and debasing in civilization, we
doubt exceedingly, whether it would be
possible to find a parallel to this criminal's
effrontery.
In the school, in the college, in the
ministry, and lastly, in charge of a Soldiers'
Orphan School, the crowning ambition of
his life has been to dethrone virtue and
make it subservient to hisbeastly purpose.
He is a human monstrosity, who revels in
all that is vile and degrading. No child
ever relished sugar plum and rolled it be
neath its tongue with half the zest that
this beast seizes upon the least particle of
slander and drinks it to the dregs, which,
to him, aro the choicest morsels, and loud
ly calls for more. No swine ever laved its
aides in mire, grunting its warm apprecia
tion to its fellows, with half the relish that
this creature laves in this sort of debase
ment. He frequents the lewd and vicious
and uses their vile slanders to intimidate
his enemies. He retails, with great gusto,
to his boon companions, his many intriguesi;
boasts of the number of marriage beds he
has violated and the many helpless inno
cents he has robbed. And, yet it is claim
ed that he has been a father (?) and pro
tector (!) of the orphans! Ye gods !

"• Snob protection as vultures givo to lambs,
Covering and devouring them."
In the garb of a minister and a father,
" With smooth dissimulation skilled to grace
A devil's purpose with an angel's face,"
he has wormed himself, satan-like. into the
confidence of almost every young woman
that has been placed beneath his charge,
until the penniless mothers, the victims of
fratricidal war, cry from half the Com
monwealth ; but they are poor, in desti
tute circumstances and without influence,
and the villain goes unwhipped of justice;
and when he sees that an effort is about to
be made to bring his infamy to the official
knowledge of those who have closed their
eyes and refused to see or hear, he inveigles
many of his unsuspecting and helpless vic
tims into his meshes, and endeavors to
hedge up all the avenues leading to his
conviction, by placing those whom he has
outraged in a position from which there is
no retreat without committing moral per
jury.
We have in our possession the names of
a number of females, who participated in
the "re-union," so-called, whose mothers
have, without stint, charged this beast
with criminal assaults upon their offspring,
and yet, these girls are bribed, coaxed,
bullied, flattered and driven to Cassvillo to
cover the shame of him who would be
to-day the author of their ruin. Cassville
is his Mecca ! Here every tree, and stump,
and stone, on every avenue leading to the
place, is a silent witness of his infamy,
while almost every hotel, within a radius
of two hundred miles, contains a record of
his assignations with some of these or
phans, and every railroad. car, could it
speak, could tell of his pollutions. Hourly
he plots to inveigle his victims from their
homes, and seldom, if ever, a week passes
but he meets some one or more of them.
This is what the Cassville Soldiers' Or
phan
School, with A. L, Guss as its Prin
eipal, has been doing for the orphan girls!
To cover up such hellish conduct the or
phans are bribed, coaxed and driven to
Cassville to make speeches, written by A.
L. Goss or ono of his tools—because there
is a remarkable sameness pervades all of
them—and to pass resolutions, written in
the language and style of hitn whose beast
liness they are to cover up, denouncing a
poor orphan girl whom many of them did
not know, while others knew what she as-
serted was only too, true from their own
sad experience, but, if they halted, they
knew the consequences. They had known
their companions to complain, when at
school, of the vile assaults made upon them l i
by their beastly Principal, and when the
complaint reached his ears the complain
ants—little girls—were driven before the
assembled school and made to recant.—
They were in for it, and Miss Pope, who
had tho courage to expose the lecherous
villain, must bo denounced and her verac
ity impeached, to save him at Harrisburg
and to make the "poaching" of that worthy
a thing to tremble at.
Such is a true picture of the Cassville
School under A. L. Guss ! Such the re
sult of his infamy ! We forgive the boys
—they know not what they do. And we
raise our voice and the voice of the public
in favor of the girls. Parties stand ready
to in-ove !chat is here asserted, and it HEST
be done. This scoundrel has gone far
enough. His last paper furnishes names
that otherwise could not be had, and the
way is open ! Wo have long had facts
enough in our possession to sink a ship,
but the Republican party was in some
measure responsible for the Soldiers' Or
phan Schools, and we did not °eel like pla
cing weapons in the hands of the Demo
crats with which to break our own heads,
but the School Department has apphrently
taken this creature in tow, and we shall
see whether it can float the weight through
without sinking.
ma_ The Washington correspondent of
the Cincinnati Commercial, gcing over the
list of Senators whose terms expire in 1875,
says : "Honest John Scott goes out. I
sincerely hope he will be elected. John
Scott is an honest man. His record is as
clear as the noon-day sun. John Scott is
poor, having barely anything but his sal
ary to live upon; but his record on the
back-pay iniquity, and every other, is
clear and enviable. He did not finger any
of the steal. He left it in the Treasury,
where it belonged. He is a conscientious
man, and the Pennsylvania Legislature
should mend him back."
us.. Financial and business affairs. are
looking up bravely in Philadelphia. The
bank statement of averages for the last
week, as reported in the papers of that
city, is in every respect a highly favora
ble one, and shows that these institutions
have gained strength in all important. items.
For instance, there is an augmentation of
deposits to the amount or $575,063. In
the line of reserves there is en aggregate
gain of $486,381, of which sum $347,036
is in legal tenders and $139,455 in nation

cut down $561,534, while the dues from
banks show a decrease of $320,204.- A
much heaver business was also transacted
at bank, the clearings being 89,282,851 in
excess of the preceding week, and the
balances heavier by $1,148,748. The
proportion of gold and legal tenders to
deposits and circulation in the aggregate
is nearly thirty-five per cent. "a better
showing," says the Ledger, "than we ever
remember to have seen before from the
Philadelphia banks."
Kir Hon. John Scott delivered a
speech, in Philadelphia, on Saturday eve
ning last a week ago, in opposition to the
New Constitution. He objected seriously
to the Judiciary article and, no doubt,

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 22, 1873.
A large amount of business has been done, du
ring the week, in both branches of Congress. The
House, however. spent over two days in a very
uninteresting debate on the salary question, and
finally passed a bill fixing their pay and that of
Senators at 56,000 per annum. During the debate
Mr. Hale, of New York, took occasion to denounce
the bill of last session, when Mr. Wilson, of Ind.,
charged Hale with receiving ten thousand dollars
for his services as agent of the United States be
fore the American-British Mixed Claims Commis
sion after he was elected to the 43d Congress,
which, with his Congressional salary, would give
him about seventeen thousand dollars for his
year's services ! Hale did not attempt to deny
the charge, but claimed that he had a legal right
to pay from two official positions at the same time,
for the reason that be had succeeded in getting a
bill passed last session to enable him to do so!—
Knowing, as he did, that the receipt of two sala
ries at the same time was contrary to the spirit
and practice of the Government, his act was con
temptible enough; but his remarks in reply to Mr.
Wilson are simply disgraceful. Allow me to quote
a sentence or two as a specimen of Mr. Hale in
Congress. He said:
There were men and beasts who were so filthy them
selves that they were never content unlestethey were defi
ling others with their filth. All have known dirty curs
who had been wallowing in the mud of the gutter to coma
out and defile decent people by rubbing their mud against
them. Tho character of the decent man was not hurt by
the contact with this mud and filth, but the cur was not
benefited, but still always remained the dirty dog. [Sen
sation.]
Mr. Wilson, of Ind., (looking direct at Mr. Halo) said
the Mouse had just had a very fair exhibition of the dirty
dog.
Seventeen thousand dollars a year as the gov
ernment compensation of a third-rate lawyer,
whose manners, judging from the above quotation,
are no better than his morale.
The Senate has had the financial question under
consideration, but postponed its final oonsideration
until after the holidays. There are almost as tun
ny theories presented in reference to our finances
and how to improve them, as there are men in the
Senate; and after all the more reliable statesmen
think that the less that is clone in the way of
changes the better. Mr. Boutwell remarked that
ho did not propose to go into any extended re
marks at this time. Ile would state, however, that
ho favored neither contraction nor expansion. The
former would bring the business interests of the
country to a stand, would dludniah the revenues
and render taxation inevitable; the latter would
postpone the day of specie payment, and he did
not think it wise to add to the return of a curren
cy of the character we now possessed. Ile viewed
with apprehension any attempt to secure immedi
ate specie payments.
On Thursday the Senate Committee on Civil
Service Retrenchment reported a till to the Senate
with amendments to the House salary bill, in the
nature of a substitute, as follows :
lie it enacted, eta, That so much of the act of March 3,
1873, as provides for the increase of the compensation of
Members of Congress and the several officers and employes
of either beam of Congress, or both, be, and the same is
hereby, repealed; and the salaries and compensation of all
said porous sbyll to ne fixed by the laws in force at the
time of the poeoagc of said act.
Sac. 2. That the compensation of the seveml heads of de
partments shall be each 10,000 per annum.
Sm. 3. That the Secretary of the Treasury is required to
cover into the Treasury all some that may remain undtawn
or which have been received as increased woupensation,
under the provisions of sold art, approved March 3, 1873
and which shall have or may come into his possession by
the return thereof.
On Thursday the Committee of Ways and Means
had a protracted discussion upon Judge Kelly's
resolution looking to the replenishing of the nation
al treasury to !peeps of a currency loan, rather
than to impose the taxes on =toff' arti,iles recom
mended in the letter of the Secretary of the Treas
ury. The dlsousion elicited the fact that Mr.
Kelley's proposition has no element of strength
with the committee, and furtherconsideration post
poned until after the Christmas holidays.
During the short recess of Congress for the holi
days very few of the members will leave the city.
It is proposed to go op with the work by the com
mittees and have it so advanced as to afford the
greatest dispatch, consistent with the importance
of the respective questions, immediately after Con
gress re-assembles.
Gen. Howard has been several times, during the
week, before the House Committee on Military
Affairs, in reference to the charges preferred by
the Secretary of War, of irregular proceedings in
the management of the Freedmen's Bureau. The
General takes the position that he is individually
innocent, and demands the fullest investigation.
For the nets of his subordinates he says ho is
neither morally nor legally responsible.
On Thursday the Committee resumed the sub
ject. Secretary Belknap was with the committee
upwards of an hour and explained the details of
the exhibits accompanying his letter. The com
mittee has not yet determined whether the case
will be remanded to the War Department with au
thority to prosecute Ly court martial or whether
it will be most expedient to proceed to recovery
by civil process, but the majority of the committee
are In favor of reporting a resolution for the action
of the House directing the General of the army to
convene a court martial to examine into, and dis
pose of the alleged charges of defalcation,
The sudden death of Mr. Frederick Dent, father
of Mrs. Grant, on Monday evening, at the White
House, has thrown the President's family into
deep grief. Mr. Dent was 88 years of age. Tho
greater portion of his life was spent in active bu
siness near St. Louis. He was successful and re
tired come years ;go. For some time past ho has
been living with his daughter, Mrs. Grant, in
Washington. He rose in his usual health Mon
day, felt unwell in the afternoon and died calmly
in the evening. The White House has been closed
during the week. Funeral exercises wore held on
Thursday morning, at 9.30, Dr. Tiffany of the
Metropolitan Methodist Episcopal Church, where
the family worshipped, officiating. The relatives,
members of the Cabinet and other offieials, with
their families,
were present. Only those invited
were admitted. After the services, the body was
conveyed to the depot, and the President and oth
er male relatives accompanied the remains to St.
Louis, Mo., for interment.
It is but a few weeks since the President buried
his own father, at a very venerable age,
It is expeeted the President will return to-mor

From. Fulton County,
Jotrimxt MAN :—ln our rambling we
have found our way into this county. On our
way here we passed Maddensville, Huntingdon
county, where we had the pleasure of dining
with 11. C. Madden; esq. We found him dress
ed in old Farmer's style, turning a corn shell
er—his health is improved considerably. But
we are writing from Fulton county and we
must stick to the text. Things look a little
blue here. Every person is cryinghard times.
All appear to have plenty to live upon, how
ever. At Fort Littleton we stopped with Mich
eal Wilt who keeps the only hotel in the place
which ranks among the best in the county.
The only reason we can give for finding a first
class hotel in this county is that Micheal has got
a Huntingdon county woman fora wife. Hero
we meet J. J. Cromer, door keeper to the last
State senate. Ile is a sound republican and
by the way a jolly chap. The old Fort is just
about what it has been for several yoars back.
The citizens are looking for a rail road which
would be the making of the place. There are
large veins of iron oar and beds of limestone
waiting transportation. We have been talk
ing some about the New Constitution but find
very few that have read it. One man did not
know that there had been a Convention to
frame a New Constitution. He did not think
there would be any election in his township.
Another said he did not take any paper but
the Christian Advocate and it did not publish
th, Constitution. We told him it was only
published in this State. He inquired whether
it was not for the whole United States. We
said it was only for this State; he replied that
he did not know they had Constitutions fur
States. We think some of our newspaper men
should send these men a paper free for a year.
In Wells township we met Hon. Wm. Hor
ton late member of the House of Representa
tives. We stopped over night with Mr. 11.
shared the good things of his table with him
and had quite a pleasant chat, and those North
ern Spy apples were grand. We will call
again, William.
Liver and Blood Diseases
I, R. V. PIERCE, M. 1,
A hearty liver secretes each day about two and and a
half pounds of bile, which contains a great amount of
waste material taken from the blood. When the liver
becomes torpid or congested, it fails to eliminate this vast
amount of noxious substance. which therefore, remains to
poison the blood, and is conveyed to every part of the sys
tem. What meet be the condition of the blood when it is
receiving and retaining each day two and a half pounds
of poison ? Nature tries to work off this poison through
other channels and organs—the kidney, lungs, skin, etc,
but these organs become over-tsxed in performing this
labor in addition to their natural functions, and cannot
long withstand the pressure, but become variously dis
eased.
The bruin, which is the great electrocal centre of all vi
tality, is unduly stimulated by the unhealthy blood, which
passes to it from the heart and it fails to perform its office
healthfully. Hence the symptoms of bile poisoning, which
are dullness, headache, incapacity to keep the mind on
any subject, impairment of memory, dizzy, sleepy, or ner
vous feelings, gloomy forebodings, and irritability of
temper. The blood itself being diseased, as it forms the
sweat upon the sorface of the skin, it is so irritating and
poison°us that it produces discolored brown spots, pimples,
blotches, and other eruptionS, sores, boils, carbuncles and
scrofulous tumors. Tho stomach, bowels and otherorgans
canard escape becoming affected, sooner or later, and We
have as the result, costiveness, piles, dropsy, dyspepsia,
diarrhoea. Other symptoms are common, as bitter or bad
taste in the mouth, internal heat, palpitation, teasing
cough, unsteady appetite, chocking SelleAtioll in throat,
bloating of stomach, pain in sides or about shoulders or
back, coldness; if extremities, etc., etc. Only a few of the
above symptoms are likely to be present in any case at
one time. The liver being the great depurating or blood
cleansing organ of the system—set this great "housekeep
er of our health" at work, and the foul corruptions, which
gender in the blood, and rot out /le it were, the machinery
of life, are gradually expelled from the eystem. For this
purpose Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery with very
small doses daily of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pella.

HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS,
It is over thirty years since this celebrated
remedy was introduced to the American Public.
During this time it has performed hundreds and
thousands of the most astonishing cures, and its
reputation and sale have now reached a point that
far surpasses any remedy of the present or past
ages. It has required this great reputation, not
by a system of puffling, but by the actual merit of
the article itself. If you are afflicted with any of
the diseases for which it is recommended, such as
Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, Nervous Debility, or
disorder of the Digestive Organs, it will not fail
to sustain its reputation in your case. It is net an
alcoholic drink, but a pure Medicinal Bitters that
will do you good. For sale by all Druggists. Be

No. 2, THE STRAWBERRY GIRL, From the Painting of
a Celebrated German Artist. Each 12 by 11 inches. Just
finished by DUVAL & HUNTER, of this city, the oldest
Chrome an. Lithographic Artists In the United States, ex
pressly for FORNEY'S WEEKLY PRESS. These two ex
quisite Chromos, widely renowned for their beauty and
artistic finish, are exactly suited for any residence, and as
produced by Duval A Hunter, are among their most suc
cessful works. Their retail price, 3founted, is $2.50 each,
But we will furnish (post-paid) a choice of either "The
Vestal Virgin," or the " Strawberry Girl," from this date,
November 24th, 1872, to every eubscriber of the "WEEK
LY PRESS" who sends us $2 for one year's subscription,
and to the getter-up of every club of five eopi. or mace.
Specimens of those Splendid Works of Art can be seen at
the business office of "THE PRESS," Seventh Street, near
Chestnut. ANOTHER PRIZE! Rirney's Anecdotes of
Public Alen, also offered as a premium. Retail price, $2
per copy. In anticipation of the Third Edition, we offer
(postpaid) a Dopy of the "Anecdotes of Public Men" to any
person who will fiend as ten subscribers for the WEEK
LY PRESS, one of the most varied publications in the
country, abounding in literary, agricultural, political, and
business matter, printed in quarto form, on strong white
paper, and with clear, beautiful type. Forney's Weekly
Press claims to be The Best Family Paper, The Best Re—
publican Weekly, The Beet Weekly Newspaper, The Best
Literary Journal, The Best Agricultmal Organ, The Best
Advertising Medium in the Keystone State, It is, in all
respects, the exponential journal of Pennsylvania, going
everywhere, and always atriking the leading fond represen
tative men in each township. The Agricultural page of
this paper lee marked speciality. Its management is in
the exclusive control of Hr. THOMAS MEEHAN, whose
reputation throughout the whole country as a practical
and successful agriculturist ix well known. His flourish
ing farm and nursery near this city are the beat evidences
of hie fitness for this importand position. The articles from
this department are widely copied and sought after by the
loading country weeklies—the surcat testimony possible of
their intrinsic value and worth. The Editorial Corree
pondcnco this year alone presents a bird's-eye view of the
farms and fanning of all the principal Western States.
No intelligent farmer can well afford do without this page.
There is, perhaps, no weekly journal which gives so
flinch interesting and instructive reading matter in a sin
gle number as Forney's Weekly Press. A very casual in
spection will justify this assertion. Excepting the editori
y pages, all of thii paper is net up in minion or nonpareil,
while most of weeklies indulge in brinier, or even larger
type, and leaded at that. Its connection with the ARO
elated Press enables the proprietor to furnish the readers
with the very latest Foreign and Domestic News by Tele
graph, Steamships, and the Atlantic. Cable. Full Market
Itoporte—money, grain, cattle, and general—of Fhilailel
phia and all tho leading &lee of the Union, constitute a
prominent and invaluable feature of the Weekly Pre..
The greatest care is exercised in theselertion of the varied
table of contents, and in the making up of the paper.
Urged on by the law of growth, etimulated by a high
journalistic pride, and encouraged by the recognition and
appreciation of the public, its proprietor seeks still longer
to bold for it the place of the Representaitive Newspaper of
Pennsylvania.

APPLETONS'
AMERICAN CYCLOPADIA
NEW REVISED EDITION,
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers en every
subject. Printed from new type, and illustrated
with Several Thousand Engravings and Maps.
The work originally published under the title of
Tna NEW AMEILICAN CYCLor,EDIA was completed
in 1983, 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 Tim AMERICAN
CYcLOP.EDIA.
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 political 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 own country, 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 geographioal knowledge
hare been made by the indefatigable explorers of
Africa.
The groat 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 have 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 ought
now to take their place in permanent and anthem
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-.
litieal and historical events.
The work has been begun after long and carefuL
preliminary labor, and with tho most ample re
sources for carrying it on to a successful termina
tion.
None of the original stereotype plates have beers
used, but every page has been printed on now
type, forming in fact a now Cycloptedia, with the
same plan and compass as its predecessor, but
with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, sad with
such improvements in its composition as have
Leon 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 fordo to the explanations in the text,
They embrace all branches of science and anat.,
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 coot
of their execution is enormous, and it is believed
they will find a welcome reception as an admire
blefeature of the Cycleptedia, and worthy of its.
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery °teach volume. It will be completed.
in sixteen large octavo volumes, eaoh containing
about SOO pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Ensravinge, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.
