NO APPROPRIATION.
The bill appropriating $200,000 f,,r the
Middle Penitentiary came up in the House,
on Tuesday afternoon, and was lost by a
vote of 61 yeas to 89 nays. We are with
out the yeas and nays on the question,
and consequently cannot give the vote this
week, but propose to do so as soon as we
can, when we may have something to say
of the causes which brought about this
result.
On Wednesday, Mr. Huhn, of Philadei
phia, moved a re consideration of the vote
by which the bill was lost. Messrs. Doyle ,
Davis, of Philadelphia, and Hewitt, of
Blair, supported the motion. It was op
posed by Fenlon; Sherwood, and Hill, and
the question to reconsider was lost by a
vote of 77 yeas and 96 nays. The "dog.
in the-manger" members have carried
their point for the time being.
HON. ASA PACKER, the millionaire,
died at his residence, in Philadelphia, on
Saturday night, aged 74 years.
THE United States Treasury will pay
out, on the first day of July next, S6U,-
000,000 in gold for called bonds.
WE are indebted to Hon. M. P. Doyle
t - Jr a large number or public documents,.
some of them contaiuing matters of inter.
est.
THE Congressional majority would like
to back out, but the truth is, it burned
all its bridges, and must have time to rig
up a balloon.—Buffalo Express.
THE Yankees forced us back into the
Union, and we propose to give them
enough of that Union before the curtain
rolls down. We hoe got 'em just where
we want them.-07colona States..
BOTH branches of the Legislature, by
resolution, have agreed to adjourn on the
6th day of June. It would have been
more to their credit, and a saving to the
tax-payers, if they had adjourned sine die
immediately after the organization on the
first day of the session.
WE don't know who is conducting the
Blair County Radical in the absence of
brother King, but he proves that he is a
judge of good things by the wholesale ap
propriation of about half a column of edi
torial squibs, without credit, from the col
. tIMIIB of the JOURNAL.
BILL SCHELL is welcome to all the pop
ularity he has made by his bitter opposi
tion to the Middle Penitentiary oicasure.
If ever William appears before the people
for their suffrages he will find that Hun
tingdon county will not forget the dirty
part he has played in this matter.
TEN thousand pages of manuscript have
been taken in the Curtin-Yocum contest.
This will be printed, and the people will
have to pay the bill. "Qur Andy," the
shoddy contractor, will get a seat in Con
gress to which he was never elected. The
Democrats want him and that is enough.
THE Blair County Republicans will hold
their primary elections on Saturday after
noon. There is a spirited rivalry going
on in that county for the office of Sheriff,
there being no less than fifteen candidates
is the field. If we had the naming of the
candidate, we would name our old friend
Over, who has given the best years of his
life to the Republican party. We hope
he may win..
AMOIIO the candidates for State Treas
urer the name of Hon B. L. Hewitt, of
Blair county, is favorably mentioned. Mr.
Hewitt is an able lawyer, and besides ta
kieg an active part in State politics he has
always labored in advancing internal im
proVejnexi& 'lli, advocacy of the appro
priation bill fgt. the Middle Penitentiary
will insure him more than a party vote in
our county. He was a gallant soldier in
the late war, and will make a strong can
didate.
THE Democrats have caught a Tartar
in the person of Kernan, the editor of the
Okolonn States, a "red hot" Democratic
paper. published in Mississippi. He pub
lishes to the world the opinions which
Southerners entertain of the North, and
they are so vindictive and wicked that even
the dough-face Democracy of the North
are frightened at the injury they see will
result to their party by the publication of
such treason. They now assert that Ker
can is not a Democrat, and that he is pub
lishing the States according to contract
with Northern Republicans. But this as
sertion is not true; he is a Simon-pure
Democrat, and means exactly what he says
when he publishes his damnable treason
to the country, and the North will hold
that party responsible for the utterances
of one of its leading organs. They want
to choke Kernan into silence, but he con
tinue! to "talk out in meetin'."
HONORABLE MENTION.—The Harris•
burg Patriot of Wednesday morning has
this to say of one of our fellow citizens :
Gen. John Williamson, of Huntingdon
county, is on a visit to the State capita].
Gen. Williamson is one of the landmarks
of the past. He is now in the eighty third
year Of his age, and he still retains with
much physical vigor all the mental spright
liness and humor which delighted a for
mer generation. Fifty years ago he was a
representative in the house from Hunting.
don county, and took a prominent part in
its deliberations. In 1845 he was appoint.
ed recorder of the land office by President
Tyler sad held that position until the close
of Tyler's term. He was on terms of per
sonal intimacy with some of the most dis
tinguished men of the past generation.
His memory is a great stoie-house of
knowledge concerning the history of the
events of the long period in which he has
been actor and observer, and his fund of
personal anecdotes is full of interest. Gen.
Williamson visited the capitol yesterday
and was the object of much friendly atten
tion on the part of the members of the
senate and house.
WASIIIN(iTON, D. C., May 17, 1579
Senator Windom has taken up the cud
dropped by Conklieg, Blaine, Ed-
Lunn& and others last week, and is vigor
ously laying them on the smarting backs
of the rebels this week. His speech on
3londay was a scathing review of their
disloyal designs, and an exposure of their
sham pretences. He showed by indisput
able evidence that the North and the Re
publican party had done all they could to
avert the war, even offering to protect the
"rights" of slavery in the name of peace.
But it was all in vain, as the men whom
the Confederate Senators call "Union
secessionists" were determined to go out
•of the Union or rule it. He ridiculed the
idea of any true union sentiment among
men who still hold that they did right in
going with their States instead of with the
Union, and clearly demonstrated that the
political legislation the Democrats are at
tempting in appropriation bills is but
another name :for State rights rebellion.
It was a device to accomplish what war
had failed to give the enemies of the na.
tion. Senator Windom's speech is pro
nounced as one of the best yet delivered
in the Senate, and that is saying a good
deal, for never was debate carried on so
ably as this has been by the many eminent
Republican Senators.
Yesterday Wade Hampton attempted to
deny and explain away assertions of Sen
ator Windom that he (Hampton) had boldly
declared that the mission of the Democratic
party was to nullity the constitutional
amendments made necessary by the war.
Senator Windom caught him securely. He
read from a printed speech of Hampton
these words : "That was my plank in the
platform. I wanted nothing else, for
" when the great Democratic party had
" pledged themselves to that, when
" tbey had declared that these acts
" (the amendments) were unconstitutional,
" and void, I was to wait in patience
" until that patty would be triumphant
" and apply the remedy in their own time."
This was a very plain endorsement of a
certain revolutionary democratic platform,
and oil llamptm could say was that he
"couldn't recollect," but lie might have
endorsed the language without going to
the extent they seemed to imply. This
was so humiliating a position for the hero
of fraud and violence that his Democratic
friends got very nervous and he got very
red in the face under their
,frowns. Mr.
Windom said triumphantly "this is all I
want," and took his seat amid the smiles
and plaudits of all who enjoyed the dis
comfiture of his Confederate antagonist.

Torpor or inactivity of the kidneys is seri
ously dangerous to those organs, since it is
the precedent of diseases which destroy their
substance and endanger life. This sluggish
ness may be overcome by stimulating them,
not excessively, but moderately, an effect
produced by Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
general invigorant and hlterative, possessing
diuretic properties of no common order. The
impetus which this admirable medicine gives
to their evacuative function counteracts any
tendency to congestion which may exist in
their tissues. Both they and their associate
organ, the bladder, are invigorated as well as
gently stimulated by the Bitters, which exerts
a kindred influence upon the stomach, liver
and bowels, and by strengthening the system,
enables it to withstand malarial epidemics; to
which when exposed it might otherwise
succumb. [may2-lm.

devoted, unites all the conveniences and appliances which have been found necessary or desirables
3—We have an ample cash capital, enabling us to make all purchases for cash, and giving us a se

WE HAVE ADV iT.TAGES SHARED BY RUT FEW OTHER HOUSES IN THE TRADR. This feet is well
known to the public.
4—We sell goods for cash only, which, though it restricts our business to those prepared to purchase
in that way, enables us to give them advantages such as no house doing a different business can.
5—A business experience of over a quarter of a century has informed us fully of the wants of the pub
lic, and of the best way to meet them. We have introduced such improvements as have from time
to time been found necessary, nearly all of which were originated by oar predeeessors In business
(Messrs. Bennett tt Co.) and many of them adopted by other houses in our business, so that long
published accounts of "Systems of Doing Business" need not convey to the public an idea of any
thing new or peculiar, as the whole of such accounts are an almost, verbatim description of meth
ods which were mostly originated in this establishment, and have been in use in it for years.
6—We employ the best and most experienced cutters and workmen in making up our goods—the
style, fit, and make of which are unsurpassed.
7—All persons, whatever may be their physical peculiarities (unless deformed,) can be accurately
fitted at once from our stock, in must case better than by goods made to order, and at prices 25
to 50 per cent. lower.
B—Our business is large and constantly increasing, enabling us to keep the largest, boat assorted, and
most complete stock of Men's, Youths', Boys', and Children's Clothing in Philadelphia, to which
large daily additions are made of fresh goods, replacing those sold.
9—For reasons already enumerated, we can and do sell at prices guaranteed in all cases lower than the
lowest elsewhere, or the sale canceled and money refunded.
10—All goods when offered for sale are represented to be exactly what they are.
ll—When buyers are for any reason.dissa.tixfied with a purchase made, if reported within a reasona
ble time, we pledge ourselves, by i eileatmge, refunding of money, or otherwise, to give full satis
