MORTON MCMICHAEL. —Hon Morton McMichael, editor of the Nwth American, and ex-Mayor of Phila delphia, died at his residence in that city, on Monday last, of rheumatism of the heart. A good man has fallen. TIM annual meeting of the Penns)lva_ nia State Fruit Growers' Association will be held in Reading on the 15th and 16th inst. If there are any members of the association in our county they are respect fully invited to be present. TUE funeral procession of Hon 11. W. Mackey, in Pittsburgh, on Monday after noon, was the largest ever witnessed in that city. Prominent men from Phila delphia Harrisburg, and other places were in attendance in large numbers. TELE cold wave which we have been ex periencing in this latitude for the past few days, was pretty general throughout the country. In some sections of the north west the cold was so intense that out door operations had to be entirely buTendtd, and travel was very much impeded. UNCLE JAKE ZEIGLZE," the veteran editor °fibs Butter Herald, is urged for the position of sergeant at arms of the United States Senate under the approsch log Democratic control of that body. If years of faithful service to that party is entitled to reward be ahOildhsve the place. Ur in Bedford county, the Democratic candidate for Commissioner who was de feated by one vote, took it into his head to contest the seat of Mr. Rogers, the Re publican commissioner elect, but Judge Hall, after hearing all the facts in „Limy case, ruled that there was no s for a contest and dim' e petition.

COMMUNEISM is hinted at by an obscure publication in this county. "Ropes and lamp posts," "deluges of blood," etc., are pictured as in side for people who will not divide their_: - -earned wealth with the chronic. rs who spend their time in idleness, finding fault with their fel lows, the government and everything else. Bosh It the tactics of the Nationalist, etc.— Organ No. 2. We must admit that our frieni Speer managed the thing pretty well. After he and Mr. North nominated the Legislative ticket, the former gentleman turned his attention to his new newspaper purchase, and by hard work and considerable "as sistance" succeeded in keeping his pub lisher in the course laid down for him. "How we apples swim." Ex JUDE CHARLES T. SHERMAN, father in-law of Senator Cameron, died at his res idence at Cleveland, on the Ist inst., aged GO years. He was a lapryer of ability and before his appointment as Judge of the United States District Court of Ohio, had a large practice in Washington. He leaves a wife and five children—two sons and three daughters—one of the former a practicing attorney in Cleveland and the other the United States Marshal of the Territory of New Mexico, His eldest daughter is the wife of General Nelson A. Miles, the celebrated Indian fighter ; the second, the wife of Col. Colgate Hoyt, of Cleveland, and the youngest the wife of Z. Don Calmar!';. WE have had a period of unbridled ex travagance, of reckless waste, of heedless enterprise, of prodigious business expan sion, of speculation, kite-flying and wild issues of irredeemable paper money, fol_ lowed by a natural collapse, ruin, bank ruptcy and stagnation. We are now com meneing to build on a firmer foundation an edifice that shall be' both lasting and grand. In fact, the golden age of the Re ipnialie is fairly ushered in by an immense favorable balance of trade, prodigious do .meatic e.lrporte, the rapid extinguishment -of thelorek'gn debt, the large and steady :accumulation of gob) in the National Treas ury, the successful restoration of the coin %anis, the triumph of American mann tfactnres in European markets, the in.. creased power 6( 1 , self reliant enterprise of domestic capital and the progressive reduc tion of the principal and interest of the national debt.—Phila. North Jmerican UP, SYCOPHANT, AND BLUSH FOR SHAME! Editor. Organ No. 2, of List week, contained ;in article, written, we believe, by the man who was hired to do the dirty work of Speer. Foust ik Co. during the campaign of t,i'•. . ii, whieh 1,1 chargod AI S. lay de ; esti. with being the author of au arti cle on "die U. S. Senatorship," published in the JOURNAL of the 13th ult., and in the eours.l of which he tries to be severe on the JOURNAL for its advocacy-of lieu. J. D. Cameron for United States Senator. We don't care to whom he attributes the authorship of our articles, or what he may say about the " tody ism and flunkeyism" of our paper, we give him full license to say what he pleases in this direction, but we cannot retrain front drawing the attention of our readers to fhe reason. why this man is opposed to the Camerons. He confesses his shame when he says : "We (meaning himself) asked the Cameron s to give us some assistance, not only once, but repeatedly, but they turned a deaf ear to our appeals, and having been spurned in this man ner we resolved that henceforward we would help to tear down the house which we had lent at least a willing hand in rearing." There's a confession that " ought to make angels weep" and devils laugh with joy. Poor fellow ! Though known for years, by a few, to be purchasable at the highest, price offered, he has never before flaunted his depravity to the world at large. Party creed, platforms and nil tional issues are of but little account to him who attempts to justify his desertion of party because, and only because, he wanted favors of a man who belonged to the same political household and was re • fused. The Golden Calf, graven by Aaron of old, never bad a more devout worship per than the editor of organ-No. 2. Ile says that he bowed at that shrine until a "deaf ear was turned to his appeals fur us sistance.'' We are a Ciaucron wan from principle, and if we had occasion to ask the Canter ons fur "assistance," even •repeatedly," and were denied it, we would not "hence forward help to tear down the house which we had lent at least a willing hcnd in re3r- jog." From May, 1853, to December, 1539, wo published the Huntingdon American, and a reference to the files of our paper will show that Gen. Simon Cameron was our beauldeal of a Statesman during these years. Under our control the American was the first paper in the Union to hoist the name of Siwan Cameron as a candi date for the Presidency, and in May, 180, we accompanied the large Pennsylvania delegation to the Chicago Nltional Con• vention in his interest. We believed then, and we believe now, that the Repub lican party of Pennsylvania would be infi• :lately safer with men of his make-up as standard bearers than to entrust its man agement to the MeClures, Curtins, and others who are now running side-shows to the Democratic circus, probably for the same reason that the editor of organ No. 2 is—for a price. But enough. We wash our hands of further controversy on this subject, and will use our best endeavor -to edi t and man age the JOURNAL as a Republican paper, in which we have not any secret, assistant or advisory editors, as has been specially mentioned for the benefit of thd National ist. ~.....I.44e6A— M ERON LEADERSHIP. The Lebanon Courier says that the proprie ty of re-electing the Hon. J. D. Cameron to the Senate is now generally conceded. This unanimity of Republican feeling on the matter is due in a great degree to the enemies of the Camerons, who conducted the late election in this State on that issue. Indeed for many years the Camerons have bad very efficient servitors in these self esteeming gentlemen, who imagined that their chief mission in the political world was to send the Camerons into political obscurity. This was noticably so in 1872, when the Greely movement in this State as conducted by Gov. Curtin, Col. McClure, Col. Forney and others, placed the Camerons in the position of the unchallenged leaders of the party; and their fidelity to the party's principles, and their generous liberality, have won them the respect and good wishes of the greater part of the workers in the party's cause. The Courier, as usual, is level headed in the expression of its views. The course of the opposition to the Camerons, in fighting them outside of the party lines, only drew the great mass of the Republi cans more closely to them. They admired their devotion to principle, and their fidel ity to party, while others who had been equally trusted, were faithless. The Cam erons became the leaders of the party by necessity, and because they had adhered closely to it,'they have retained their bold on the affections of the Republican masses. Their worst enemies must concede that their leadership has been a success to the party, as well as to themselves; and so long as they wield the sceptre discreetly, and recognize the just claims of the active members of the party their sway is not likely to be disturbed by any formidable organization within the party lines. Par ties must have leaders, the Republicans of Pennsylvania are satisfied with the present dynasty, and they will be slow to exchange it until well assured that something better is offered. The course of the enemies of the Camerons has made them supreme in the councils of' the party in this State. Gov. Curtin is now a' recognized leader of the Democratic party. Cul. McClure and Col. Forney do not claim, we believe, to be in fall sympathy with the Republi cans, while declining to be regarded as Democrats. When ali were Republicans in good standing, they never could for any length of time harmonize with Gen. Cam eron. If occasionally a treaty of peace would be patched up among them, it would not have the strength of a rope of sand. True, it was difficult fur an out sider to see what they fought about, but. somehow or other they managed to keep up an incessant quarrel. There was no principle involved in it except as to who should be leader, a question in which the masses of the party did not take any very lively interest. The State of Pennsylva nix is large, and if there had been entire harmony is the Republican ranks at that time, all these men who esteemed them selves great, could have been provided for by the National and State administrations. A common interest should have dictated a policy of peace and forbearance, but as both Cameron and Curtin were determined to be dim leader of the ;arty, to the exclu sion of the other, one of them must neeefii sari!), go under in the conflict. Cameron was in harmony witlt the aggressive Re publican setitimout of th pericei, and therein was tite ST: e;•rt of 1a..; strnicth and uccLs Curtin nti,er a xer s:iund Republican, !mil ki,:ked nut the tracys at tome critic Cam•roti al v:t any etner;:,,,y tin vas na'• trteiteil 3 , 1 :vial extent.

Returning home from Russia in the summer of that year, when the paliti cal campaign was fully inaugurated, and when the Republican leaders were doubt ful of the result, .he could have had any position at the dasposal of the administra tion, if he had taken the field for Hartranft. Ile would have been credited with securing for Ilartrauft the large majority by which lie wes elected, which tettled the presi dentin! contest, and he might then even have realized his dream of being a bigger man than Cameron, but he did the wrong thing at the wrong time, by going for Duekalew, to whose support he did not contribute a corporal's gull-J. Curtin was shora of Lis locks the moment he stepped outside of the Republican party, in whose bosom, as the War Govern , r, he acquired what strength he pos, , essed. With this action his connection with the Republican party cased, and be has continued on the downward course until he has reached the uncuviabie po,ition el' a defeated Demo cratic candidate for Congreas in a district where he should have been elected easily. A corrupt majority in the House may award him his seat on a eintest, as usual, hut his chequered political career is a 'failure, when measured by what it might have been, if marked by a higher devotion to principle.—Mambershurg Repository. N EWSPA TOR IA • According to promise the Altoona S. , .tn came to hand last week enlarged and im proved in appearance. The Suu is hand scmely printed, and considerable time and care is bestowed in its get up. We learn from a private sourco that. John Lutz, esq., of Bedford, has purchased the Everett Press, and that our old friend, Col. John M. Bowman has been engaged to run the establishment. We wish all parties success. The Centre Democrat, the .new paper just started at Bellefonte, is under the editorial management of Messrs. Shugart & Foster. It is an eight page paper, part of which is printed in New York and part in Bellefonte. The paper is started, we understand, with the intention of break ing down Meek's Watchman, because that gentleman refused to eat crow a n d support the "War Governor"' for Congress at the late November election. It is said that the new concern has ample capital,—some of Curtin's profits in the mule and shoddy. clothing contracts during the war we sup pose—but with all its boasted wealth it will find that it has a big contract on Imuti. when it uniertakes to supplant the Watch man.

Our Washington Letter. WASIIINGTON, D. C., Jan. 8, 1579 The recent murder of witnesses in Louis iana oa their way to testify bef4e the United States Courts has been the last feather to break the democratic camel's back. Many Detuoiratic parrs begin to see the truth which they have beca deny ing and cmiceating for the List ten years, and sAne of them denounce the cry of the bloody shirt as no longer potent to keep back the disagreeable exposure, to follow the rebel methods in the South. The patient and long suffering colored people of the South are apparently at last Pe re ceive ,justice from an unexpected quarter, and, as in 1856, the democratic ranks can be no longer kept intact on the line of ruffianism and fraud. The latest outrages in Louisiana, by the way, arc what finally decided the Blaine Committee to change the first objective point from South Caro lina to New Orleans. They will stay in Louisioh 'b!y_ two week... 4oll__arte.z_. go to Linde Iritupton s hunting; ground. The evidence already in the hands of the Cabinet Officers is sufficient to damn any party but one which bad be-. fore shouldered treason and repudiation and assassination, but the evidence which the Committee gather will be more damn ingyet We have private accounts in. dicating that many democrats and con servaties in the South will make startling confessions, having become sick' of main• taining the usurpation of fraud and vio• lance, since it is apparent that it can only be done by making anarchy and terrorism perpetual. They realize that the material interests of the South are suffering beyond repair by the continuance of this wrongful system. and are-ready to turn a new leaf. Meanwhile the democrats do not press the inquiry into "northern outrages" any more vigorously than they do into cipher de spatches, and judging from Mr Thurman's letter to the Committee, his vise is decidedly gauzy and lie is not at all jubilant about it. The assured sueceis of resumption justi fied the Cabinet at the meeting yesterday in the indulgence of congratulations. The result has been brought about by patient and persevering effort and steady faith, and the Republican party is credited with the honor. Doubtless the next elections will testify to the popular appreciation of that fact. Much regret is expressed at the publi cation of a letter purporting to have been written by Senator Ingalls, of Kansas, to a Kansas Postmaster, in which he accuses the official of not keeping his contract to pay a certain monthly sum of money to another man as c)nsideration f'm his ap• pointment. The original of this letter is in the hands of a gentleman in this city, and Senator Ingalls' friends made great efforts to keep it front the public. It looks badly for the Senator's aspiration for re election, aitcl it revives the old stories of his joining the conspiracy to break down Senator Pomeroy on a former occasion. Many men of all parties in Kansas have had occasion to regret that occurrence, and some of them are now urging the election of Senator Pomeroy as a measure ofjustice to one wbo as a Senator did more for the interests of Kansas and the West than any other man ever did. It is now pretty well determined that Senator Conklin,, ,, withdraws from the field as a Presidential candidate. He has been overwhelmed with offers of aid and en couragement in the next Presidential cam paign, and the business was occupying more of his time than he could well spare from his public and private duties, when after all the place he most likes to fill is the place he already holds and will hold for another term and probably as long as he likes. He authorizes the formal announce ment that he will not be a candidate in 1880 nor in 1884, which many Republi cans will sincerely regret, knowing his un equaled popularity in New York and his great ability.

LIGHTNER, __ . _ RIMIBTZIeB Omen, Huntingdon, Dee., 10, 'Th. 1879-THE NEW YEAR-1879 In entering upon a new twelvemonth, which begins with every sign auspicious for all the ac tive, literary and artistic interests of the country; with every indication of an immediate future ac favorable to the advance of liberal enterprise as the immediate past has been adverse; the pro prietor of the THE NEW YORK MERCURY proposes to have a new life, as it were, infused into this so long representative metropolitan weekly repository of Literature, Dramatic and Musical specialities and general news. Always a pungently original and endlessly varied epitome of the most attractive literary novelties, artibtic information, social saliencies, choicest regular con tributions and brigheet journalistic department of the day, it is intended that it shall be made yet brighter and more comprehensive in general by the addition of striking new features and the' aid of an increased force of first-class writers. Any current number of the paper now will serve to ohnw the progress of these invigorating and re juvenating improvements, at once recalling to thousands of readers the most brilliant past epochs of their favorite weekly's veteran career and eclipsing all precedents therein. The Nsw YORK MERCURY for the year 1879 will be far stronger than ever in its great standard specialities, SPLENDID SERIALS, OFFICIAL DRAMATIC INTELLIGENCE, COMPLETE STORIES AND POEMS, STRIKING SOCIAL NEWS, and its usual unrivaled array of the best of con tributions and fresh ideas in every line of inter esting reading ; and it is designed that inimita ble new specialities in ORIGINAL HUMOR, THE ROMANCE OF REAL LIFE, SOCIETY'S WIT AND SPARKLE, LITERATURE'S NATIVE STRENGTH, and the grandest work that liberal inducements con obtain from the most celebrated foreign, as well as native, pens, shall be among the future characteristics, of the paper. Better times seems to have come, indeed, at last, to encourage fresh outlay in the interests of pablie instruction and amusement, and the Nsw Yost( MERCURY will be found FOREMOST IN THE VAN of institutions recognizing and acting epos every escoaragement to fresh and generous enterprise that the New Year promises to afford. A goodly, loyal army of old friends and new are already subscribers, in every part of the Union sad in many parts of Europe; but an even greator con stituency yet needs just such a combination of all the choicest Literary and Artistic attractions of the whole newspaper world in one great weekly, as they may Sod in the New York Mercury for 1879.
