The Huntingdon Journal. J. A. NASH, HUNTINGDON, PENN'L. _. ÷ _..._. FRIDAY, MAY 30, 1579 Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. HON. L. W. HALL will deliver the ad dress in Harrisburg, on Decoration Day. THE testimony taken by the Riot In vestigating Committee is to be printed in full in the Legislative Record. Gov. HOYT has accepted the invitation of the Grand Army of the Republic, and will be present at Gettysburg on Decora tion Day. JUDGE ASA PACKER bequeathed $l,- 500,000 for the permanent endowment of the Lehigh University, and $500,000 for a library for the same institution. THE new riot bill, recently introduced in the Senate, was dropped from the cal endar, on Monday, at the instance of Senator McNeill, who introduced it. THE Altoona Tribune says that Judge Dean is credited with having Congress ional aspirations in 1880. The Judge would make an excellent Congressman. THE Centennial Association of Valley Forge will dedicate Washington's head quarters on June 19th, on which occasion Senator Bayard will deliver an oration. A LARGE barn, situated five miles from Detroit, Mich., which contained French's menagerie, was totally destroyed by fire on the morning of the 22d inst. Five lions, the elephant "Sultan," a zebra, a leopard, and many other valuable animals were cremated. As STATED by is last week the Repub licans of Blair county held their primary elections last Saturday evening, which resulted in the selection of G. F. Bell for Sheriff, G. W. Burket for Prothonotary, A. F. Orr for Jury Commissioner, and Jerry C. Mattern for Director of the Poor. A majority of 165 was cast against the Crawford County System of making nomi nations. THE Warner Silver bill, which passed the House on Saturday, was voted for by the following Republicans : Belford, (Col.); Cannon, Fort, and Marsh, (Ill.); while the following Democrats voted against the bill : Bliss, Covert, and Wood, (N. Y.) ; Deust er, (Wis.) ; Morrison, (Ill.); and Pochler, (Minn.) The bill will hardly pass the Senate, and if it does, it will then certain. ly encounter a Presidential veto. ON Sunday last the Catholic Cathedral, St. Patrick's, situated on Fifth Aveue, New York, was dedicated by Cardinal McCloskey, assisted by Archbishops Pur cell and Gibbons, and a host of Bishops from all parts of the country. An im• mense multitude was present to participate in the ceremonies. The corner-stone was laid by Archbishop Hughes, August 15th, 1858, and the edifice is the largest and most imposing church structure in the United States, built of white marble and costing an enormous sum. GEN. GRANT is coming. lie will leave Yokohoma by the next Pacific mail steamer about the last of June, and will reach San Francisco in the neighborhood of July 20 The arrangements for an excursion of cit izens to meet him on his arrival have been completed with the leading trunk lines be. tween the east and Omaha, and from there over the roads of the Union and Central Pacific companies. The programme of arrangements is now being prepared, and will be made public shortly. We expect a number of our citizens will join the ex cursion to welcome the next President to his native land. A WAVE of economy seems to have engulphed the members of the Legislature, on Monday night, when disposing of the appropriation bills. The bill appropriating $170,000 to the Norristown State Lunatic Asylum was defeated. Instead of the Normal Schools of the State getting the $200,000 asked for, they are put off with half that amount to run them for two years. The Soldiers' Orphan Schools shared no better fate. The $90,000 appropriated to pay the quarterly expenses of these schools was cut down to $BO,OOO. The geological survey appropriation of $lOO,OOO was reduced to $50,000. By these curtailments the appropriations have been reduced $350,000 for two years. AN HONEST CONFESSION. The people of this town and county know why and by whom the bill appro. priating $200,000 far the Middle Peniten tiary was killed, and in order- that there may be no doubt of the cause of its defeat we publish the following from the Bedford Gazette, one of the leading Democratic papers in the State, and whose editor was in Harrisburg on the day that the bill came up in the House: An appropriation of $600,000 was ask ed in the early part of the session fur the construction of this building but the mat ter met with so much opposition on second reading that the amount was reduced to $200,000. To day the- bill came up on final passage and in anticipation of this a car load of Huntingdon's distinguished citizens put in an appearance last night. Lobbying was at once entered upon and the members hunted down and bored until the vote was reached. The roll call show ed but 61 votes in favor of the appropri ation to 81 against it. The Democrats voted almost solidly against this bill, first because it is believed by nearly every one to be a useless expenditure of the public money, there being no necessity for such a building at this time, second because the Treasury is virtually bankrupt and no prospect of this Legislature providing ad ditional revenues, and lastly but not least, because the whole matter was conceived for the purpose of electing Ex-Senator, now Congressman Fisher, to Congress. The object of the bill having been accom plished at a cost to the State of about $lOO,OOO, there seems to be no use in wast ing $200,000 more to secure his re-elec tion in 1880. Good judges estimate the ultimate cost of this building if continued at $1,500,000 and this is looked upon as a very large expenditure for a wholly use less purpose. Already arrangements have been made by which 1300 additional cells will be furnished at the Western Peniten tiary and this will be done at a trifling cost to the State whether the Huntingdon Penitentiary is built or not. DEATH OF WILLIAM LLOYD GAR- Editor After a long illness William Lloyd Gar risen breathed his last at five minutes past 11 o'clock, Saturday night, at the West moreland Hotel, in New York city, in the 74th year of his age, surrounded by his four sons, his daughter, and three warm personal friends. Mr. Garrison was born at Newburyport, Mass., in 1805, and had as unpropitious a start in life as some of the waifs of larger cities. his father, Abijah Garrison, was master of a vessel engagel in the West India trade and a man of some literary ability and taste; but he became intem perate, and went away from his family while his children were young, and never returned. The mother, left in utter pov erty, became a professional nurse, and in 1814,went to Lynn, taking young William with her, and placed him with Gamaliel Oliver, a Quaker, to learn the trade of a shoemaker. He was extremely small for his age, and his knees trembled under the weight of a lapstone. His mother, finding that the business did not suit him, sent him back to Newburyport at the end of three or four months, where be was cow mated to the care of Deacon Ezekiel Bart lett. To save his mother the cost of board he helped the deacon when out of school in his occupation as a wood sawyer, going with him from house to house. At school he was taught reading, wri ting and a smattering of grammar, and this was the education with which he entered the world. In 1815 he went with his mother to Baltimore, where he remained a year in the capacity of chore boy. Then he returned to Newburyport. In 1818 he was apprenticed to Moses Short, a cab inetmaker, in Haverhill, but, as he strongly disliked the trade, he persuaded Mr. Short to release him. In October of the same year, he was indentured to Ephriam W. Allen, editor of the Newburyport Herald, to learn printing. Here he met something to his tastes. Ife not only learned to set type, but he began, when only sixteen or seventeen years old, to write, under an in coE,rnito,artieles which his employer printed, and at length eagerly sought and praised It was a long time before Mr. Allen learned that the correspondent whose communica tions were so welcome was his own ap. prentice, who often had the satisfaction of putting his own articles into type, and once received through the postoffice a letter of thanks from his master, with a request that he would continue to write. He soon commenced writing for other papers, in cluding the Haverhill Gazette, the Salem Gazette and the Boston Contmercial Ga zette, which received his contributions with favor. Robert Walsh. at that time editor of the Philadelphia _National Gazette, at tributed a series of Garrison's articles, signed "Aristides," to the venerable Tim othy Pickering, and this was one of many signs of commendation which approved his adoption of an editorial career. In 1826, his apprenticeship at the Her ald office being closed (and baying edited the paper during a protracted absence of the owner), be became the proprietor and editor of the Free Press in his native town. He was then twenty-one years of age. As an editor be was next connected with the National Philanthropist, a temperance paper, published in Boston ; then with the Journal of the Times, at Bennington, Vt. ; then with the Genius of Universal Entan eipation, at Baltimore, and finally with the Liberator, which he established in Boston, January 1, 1831, and of which he held control during the thirty-five years of its existence. Of all the pioneers of .the anti-slavery agitation William Lloyd Garrison was the most aggressive an uncompromising. To the destruction of human slavery he de voted the best years of his life, attacking it at a time when its supports were most powerful, and defying persecution with a constancy that was storm proof. In his own word., he stood "like the oak, like the Alps—unshaken. Opposition and abuse and slander and prejudice and judi cial tyranny," said he, "add to the flame of my zeal. lam not discouraged ; lam not dismayed; hut bolder and more confi dent than ever." He was not, however, as is generally supposed, the first con spicuous man who enlisted in the anti slavery movement after the Missouri strug gle, where freedom lost, and slavery won. The devoted, effective and prominent worker who preceded him was Benjamin Lundy, a native of New Jersey. of Quaker origin, whose labors from 1815 to 1830 were immense, involving great personal hardship and sacrifice, and placing him far in advance of all cotemporaneous or earlier abolitionists. Of him Garrison said in after years. "If I have in any way, how ever humble, done anything toward call ing attention to slavery or bringing about the glorious prospect of a complete jubilee in our country at-no distant day, I feel that I oRe it, instrumentally and under God, to Benjamin Lundy." IT Is rumored from Washington that Secretary of War McCrary will retire from the cabinet to accept the position of Cir cuit Judge for the Eighth District, to be made vacant by the resignation of Judge Dillen, but that he will not leave the cab inet before the first of September. FROM THE HUB.—There is perhaps no tonic offered to the people that possesses as much real intrinsic value as the flop Bitters. Just at this season of the year, when the stomach needs an appetizer, or the blood needs purifying, the cheapest and best remedy is Hop Bitters. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, don't wait until you are prostrated by a disease that may take months for you to ii€cover in.—. Boston Globe. may3o-2t. A Dangerous Torpor. 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, nut excessively, but moderately, an effect produced by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a general invigoraut and alterative, 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.

The fashion of coloring butter is so universally approved, that dairyman naturally prefer a color which is reliable, uniform in action, harmless in all respects and free from odor or flavor. Such is the Perfected Butter Color of Wells, Richardson & Co., which is the most desirable article of the kind known. New To-Day CAUTION.

We have introduced such improvements as have from time to time been found necessary, nearly all of which were originated by oar predecessors in business (Messrs. Bennett 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 most cases better than by goods made to order, and at prices 25 to it per cent. lower.
