Republican State Convention. 11EADQUALITEILS REPUBLICAN S'"AVE , COMIIITTEE, HARRISBURG, February 1,1876. n pursuance of a resolution of the Repub lican State Committee, adopted at a meeting held in Harrisburg this day, a Republican State Convention, to be composed of delegates from each senatorial and Representative dis trict, to the number to which such district is entitled in the Legislature, is hereby called to meet in the city of Harrisburg, at twelve o'clock, noon, on Wednesday, March 29, 1876, for the purpose of nominating art Electoral ticket and of electing Senatorial and Repre sentative delegates to represent the State in the Republican National Convention, to be held at Cincinnati, Ohio, on the 14th day of June, 1976. By Order of the Committe, HENRY M. HOYT, Chairman. A. WILSON Nona's, Secretary. PECKSNIFFIAN The Local News thinks we should ex plain why we refer to ourself in connec tion with the passage of the special print ing act for this county. We will do this, and, while our hand is in, we will mention some other things that this little contro versy suggests. We referred to ourself because the editor of the Local News re peated, time and again, that the special act was passed in 1871, instead oflB7o, there by creating the impression, repeatedly mentioned to us, that we had secured its adoption on our coming into the county in the latter year. If the gentleman did not wish to convey this impression lie could, very easily, have exonerated us, but hay lug failed to do so, we were obliged to speak in our own defence. We hope the explanation so far is satisfactory. As to our opposition to the provisions of the bill —that is neither here nor there. We have never been ungentlemanly enough, nor selfish enough, to do that which would injure our neighbor, fur the express pur pose of injuring him, theref 're, we left the matter with the people. The position of the News in this matter is certainly open to severe criticism. It occupies the position, to some extent, of an interloper, and, to be pointed, we regard all this outcry about printing as supremely Peck sn iffian . When we came into the county in the winter of 1870 1 we were obliged to be come responsible for a large sum of money to purchase the Republican, and merge it with the Journal and ./Inzerican. and to equip the JOURNAL office for a larger pa per. We incurred an indebtedness, in dividually and jointly with our partner, of about $6,500, making with the Journal and American, a total of almost $lO,OOO in vested. We had promised the gentle men, who were instrumental in inducing us to cast our lot amongst Huntingdon county politicians, that we would establish a first class county newspaper, one that would be a credit to the town and the party. We left no stone unturned to do this. The Globe and Monitor, stimulated by our example, incurred great expense,— expense which subsequently bore down the editor of the latter,—and rivaled us. We had proceeded but a short distance before we were satisfied that there was not suf ficent patronage in the county to support three papers of the dimensions of the Mon itor, Globe and JOURNAL, without great efforts on our part and a bountiful supply of partizan patronage. We strained every nerve, however, for support. We de termined to procure first class job hands at first class wages, so that none of our people would find it necessary to go from home to get their printing done, A great many appreciated our efforts, and others, who might have been quite a spoke in our wheel, did not. Well, after all this out lay on our part and the part of our neigh• hors, and the establishment of three local newspapers that would do credit to any county, with twice the population of Hun tingdon, the editor of the Local News de termines to push, to force, a new paper into the newspaporial field to the great injury of each of the other three that had so lav ishly spent their money to give the people ofthe county creditable newspapers. There never was a*worse case of bad faith—not only on the part of the editor,—but on the part of those who encouraged it. The former was in a measure bound by every sense of manliness and decency to observe good faith with the purchaser of the Globe, if he did not consider himsalf' under any obligations to the publishers of the Monitor and JOURNAL. But if the establishment of the Local News was a violation of the usual courtesies and proprieties between gentleman the mode adopted was doubly reprehensible. The price was established at just one-half that charged by the other papers and the advertising a few cents per line less, so that it would be brought into competion. Having estab lished a paper that was uncalled for, and having - thereby jeopardized, by dividing the patronage, the money invested by his neighbors, he now turns about and en deavors to ruin them by having the re mainder of the patronage legislated out of existence. We admit that all branches of trade are open to cornpetion, and we are willing to take our chance, but we have no toleration for the man who will push himself in where he is not needed, by trampling down others, and when he does make a landing makes use of his position to crush out his rivals. This is the posi tion of the Local News towards some, or all, of the three leading papers to-day.— Every dollar of patronage that it has, leg itimately belongs to those who were induced to invest their money here in good faith, and its efforts to destroy them is as su premely selfish as anything we have wit nessed or read in many years. We have said here publicly what has been hundreds of times repeated privately, not that we have ought against Mr. Lind say or his enterprise,—because we have al ways treated him as a gentleman,—but be cause his sweeping assault upon the little patronage of the three papers. which he has done so much to embarrass, is the en kindest cut of all. DANIEL DREIY, one or New York's millionaires, has gone into voluntary bank ruptcy for several millions of dollars, The First Gun for '76! EDITOR NEW HAMPSHIRE ! THE STATE GONE REPUBLICAN. Gain of Over 2,000 on the Right Side. CONCORD, N. H., March 14.—Little or no excitement prevails at the various vot ing places. The vote up to noon has been unusually large, and the Republicans have made an increase over last year. They will doubtless gain between 100 and 200 over last year's vote. In the central wards, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh, a count was made at noon, which gave on the State ticket 780 for Cheney, the Republi can candidate for Governor, and 380 for Marcy, the Democratic candidate. George E. Todd, the Republican candidate for State Senator in District' No. 4 is running considerably ahead of his ticket in this city. CoNcottn, March 14.—Returns from sixty-nine towns and wards give Cheney 11,931, Marcy 10,57?, Kendall and Scat tering 92. In 1875 the same towns and wards give the Republicans 11,462, Dem ocrats 10,791, Prohibition, &c., 175. Re publican net gain this year, 671. Esti mated returns from 103 towns show that the Republicans are still gaining. BOSTON, March 14.—A Concord spe cial to the Post (Dem. ) concedes a Re publican victory in New Hampshire. A majority in both branches of the Legisla ture and the e'ection of Cheney by the people by a small majority; but, as was the case last year, later returns may ma terially affect the results. One hundred and sixty-six towns and wards gave Che ney 27,739, Marcy (Democratic) 25,224, Kendall and scattering 254. The same re turns last year gave the Republicans 26,- 583, Democrats 25,963, and scattering 477 ; Republican net gain 2,118. BOSTON, March 14.—Returns from sev enty four towns of New Hampshire show Republican gains. THE election in New Hampshire has gone all right. The Republicans have made handsome gains. This is the first important gun for 1876. The ball is now in motion, and will continue until the close of the polls on the 7th of November next. TIIE Democrats have so badly managed the Belknap tusiness that, in all probabil ity, nothing will come of it. They suc ceeded in interesting the country for some thing like nine days and now they are, apparently, only too anxious to cover the whole affair up, We pity the party that is so unfortunate in its leadership. IT is now thotight Richard H. Dana, jr., will not be confirmed as Minister to England, it being charged against him that he was guilty of perjury and literary piracy. Ben. Butler is reported to have taken up his quarters in Washington, to do all he can against Dana's confirmation, for the reason that Dana opposed Butler's election to Congress in 1869, after Butler had received the nomination. Kentucky Flesh Shower. THE FLESH DECLARED TO BE DEAD SPAWN OF FROGS LOUISVILLE, March 11.—Dr. J. Law rence Smith, scientist, to whom was given the specimens of flesh, has furnished the following report of his analysis : "•I have examined the specimens of mat. ter that were sent to me from Bath county as baying fallen from a clear sky. in a limited space, in the neighborhood of Mud lick Springs. The pieces recieved by me had been placed in alcohol, and they had evidently shrunk considerably from their original bulk. The four pieces furnished me by Captain Brent, of Mount Sterling. and Mr, Madden, of the Courier-Journal, were from one-half to an inch in size ; they had the appearance of dried gelatin. ous matter of irregular shape and were more or less colored. Filaments were at• tached to the exterior. Under a feeble magnifying power the edges were translu cent; when heated in water the pieces be came enlarged and more translucent. The dried pieces when cut across showed on the exterior a soft gelatinous substance without any fibrous structure. Under the microscope the parts that had dried show ed a filamentous structure. The dried pieces when placed on a flame, burned readily with the strong and well known smell of animal matter. The peices were examined carefully under the microscope, but there was not the slightest indication of any muscular fiber or other structure belonging to what is known as animal tis sue. In my mind this matter gives every indication of being the dead spawn of the batrachian reptile, doubtless that of the frog. It has been transported from the ponds and swampy grounds by currents of wind, and has ultimately fallen on the spot where it was found. "This is no isolated occurrence of the kind, I having come across the mention of several previous instances in the course of my reading. The only one I can now fix the date of is recorded by Muschubroeck and occured in Ireland in 1675. The mat ter is described by him as very gelatinous and fatty and softed when held in the hand, or emited an unpleasant odor when expos ed to the action of the fire, "The ovum or egg of the batraehian reptiles is a round mass of transparent jelly, in the center of which appears a small black globule. In the pesent case the pas sage through the air would have dried up, more or less, the gelatinous mass, so that the exterior would have become hard and the interior, as I found it, still soft and gelatinous. As regards the quantity sup posed to have fallen there is doubtless con siderable exaggeration, for the singularity of this phenomenon would doubtless have such a startling effect on the Jninds of the witnesses as to cause them to magnify the number. I have desired more of the mat ter to be sent to me, when, if there is any modification of these views, I will make them known. [Si g ned] "J. LAWRENCE SMITII, Considerable oxcitement exists among the people generally concerning this affair, and it will be hard to convince the coun try people, who witnessed this phenomenon of Professor Smith's theory. The Unity of the Republican Party, The objection to last fill's convention, is that it wsis "set up" job ; and in our opinion, these objections, to a reasonable extent, are tenable. When yi, , u hold a convention that must nominate a friend of Woods, Scott, Orlady, Guss or somebody else, there will be no union 40ause the people, having no axes to grind, will not support a ticket of this kind. If tins) par ties are to successfully nominate the candi dates, why go through the fortnality of convention ? But, how else can we get at the matter ? I'Ve answer : let the two chair men join in a call for a convention, having two delegates from each borough and town ship in the county, regardless of party faction ; letting the moral fitness of the candidates for delegates be the only question considered. When this convention meets lot the two chairmen resign, recommending, or ap pointing a man to fill their place until the convention is permanently organized. This man should be one who is not identified with either clique—for instance Mr. Bow- man of the Mt. Union Times. Then let this convention go to work, regardless of outside influence or party factions, giving us honest, capable men and thepeople will elect them.— The Mountain Voice, Publish al by Dr. Gehrett, at Broad Top City.

WHETHER THEY ARE Jews or Gentiles, Christians or Moslems, Brahamists or Worshippers of us, Is not the question in these hart times, hut Are lay sex Chu Goois? and this everybody, who has tried, and has a spark of common sense about him, MUST admit, even our heathen friend of the Gentile stan dard. We, as business men, consider it mere cowardice to draw religious topics into business questions, and with sensible people will avail noth ing. If our heathen friend would have only taken in considertion that "A Dollar Sand, is a Dollar Earned," especially in times when a man cannot earn a great deal, and save all he can, he would easily compre- hend why our Storeroom is Crowded, and his—void of customers. We pity the man to the fullest extent of our ability, but are unable to help him, if he cannot help himself. If, in these hard times, an oppor tunity is offered to the public To buy Goods for less money than ererbefore. of con rse ereiwbod y in embrace it. The enlightened people in the present age, cannot be talked out of common sense and reason by a few merchants who have well shown the material they are made of by asking Exorbitant Prices, when they had the opportunity. without any compensation of their conscience. So do not listen ye en lightened people of this county, to the sayings of these men who have. when opportunity offered, fleeced you constantly, with an endurance worthy of a better cause. See to your interest ye people of Huntingdon and County, and come at once and buy what you need. as we cannot stay here but a FEW WEEKS MORE. The merchants having made it impossible for us to rent our pres ent store-room, and we are unable to rent another. This alone should glee you suffieient eridence how much they like iss; for whieh they certainly hare sufficient cause. Show them your intelligence, ye people of Huntingdon and County. and convince them that the 19th Century is too far advanced in age for one class of people to impose upon the balance with impunity. Show them that you resent their action, and also show that you appreciate our presence, by call ing at once and looking at our stock. Our Rules Are Ist. One price only, to everybody. 2d. Goods exchang ed at any time, if not cut. 3d. Money return ed upon application. This shows sufficiently that we are not like others who try to get the advantage of a customer, as it would avail us little because we re turn the money whenever demand ed from us. Convince yourselves of the above by calling at once at B.
