nTdOT - TolfriTali : J. A. NASH, HUNTINGDON, PENN'A ___i__ - JUNE 13, 1879 FRIDAY, Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. Republican State Convention. The Republicans of Pennsylvania, and all others in favor of an Honest Currency and the faithful discharge of National Obligations, and opposed to Communism and the Restora tion to Power in the National Government of the influences which procured the rebellion of 1861, are requested to send delegates, appor tioned accordingly to their representation in the Legislature, to a Convention to meet at Harrisburg, at 12 A. M., on the 23d day of July next, to nominate a candidate for State Treasurer, and transact such ether business as may be brought before them. N. S. QUAY, Chairman State Committee. PHILADZLPAIA, June 9, 1879. COL. QUAY has issued a call for the assembling of the Republican State Con vention, at .11 arrisburg, on the 23d of July, one week after the meeting of the Demo- cratic convention. "BASTARD DEMOCRATS" is what the Okolona States, the leading Democratic paper in Mississippi, calls those Demo. crate who fail to stand up to the caucus programme of the Southern brigadiers. CAPT. WM. B. HA RT i s favorably men tioned in conneetion with the nomination for State Treasurer. He would make a strong candidate, and it is more than probable that he will be selected to carry the Republican standard in next fall's campaign. THE President I;as seal the case of Fitz John Porter, declared innocent by the re cent court martial, on the testimony of rebels, to Congress for their disposal Everybody knows Porter to be guilty, but the rebel Brigadiers will reinstate him in payment fur the service he rendered them when wearing the uniform of a Union General. PREVIOITS to the adjustment of the Legislature Gev. Hoyt vetoed the Mexican Veteran Pension bill. The principal rea son for the veto was that the bill allowed millionaires and paupers the same pension, and that it discriminated against Pennsyl vania Mexican soldiers in other States in allowing pensions to Mexican soldiers of other States residing in this. State. Another reason for the Governor's action is the de pleted condition of the Treasury. The veto was sustained--yeas, 16; nays, 15. SPATTEmnismt, the Lebanon county murderer, who was to have been hanged on Friday last, has been reprieved fur thirty days in order that his counsel may get his case before the Board of Pardons. The telegram announcing the reprieve reached the sheriff while that official was busily engaged in making preparations for the execution. Unless his case is favorably considered by the Board he will pay the penalty of his crime on the sth day of July. Ex-Gov. ANDREW G. CURTIN, Presi dent of the Pennsylvania Reserve Associa tion, has officially notified Major Chill W. Hazzard, Corresponding Secretary, that the Board of Control has determined to hold the usual annual re-union this autumn at a time and place hereafter to be an - pounced. He desires the Secretary to give the matter publicity, thus early, in order that the veterans of the Old Guard may anticipate a re-assembling of the Association—an occasion which in other years proved a source of so much pleasure. THAT sterling Republican paper, the Harrisburg Telegraph, came to us several days last week enlarged to mammoth pro portions, with its typography as bright and clean as a gold dollar fresh from the hands of the coiner. The Telegraph is one of the best dailies in the State, and as an ad vocate of Republicanism, pure and un adulterated, it has no superior between the oceans. We are pleased to mark this evidence of prosperity on the part of our old familiar friend. The paper has done yeoman service for the cause of Repub licanism, and we advise all our readers, after having first paid for the JOURNAL, to subscribe for the Telegraph. Tax fiend, Edward Parr, who brutally murdered his daughter, Mrs. Susan Irwin, about a month or six weeks ago, in Phil adelphia, was convicted of murder in the first degree in the courts of that city on Saturday last. After the jury rendered the verdict the brute, with a smile upon his countenance, remarked to his counsel that he was entirely satisfied with the re sult. He was called up for sentence on Monday, and just as the Judge bad fin ished sentencing him, he fell to the floor in an insensible condition, with froth foam ing from his mouth. Upon examination it was found that he had swallowed poison. Physicians were summoned, who attempted to save his life, but their efforts were in vain, and he died at 3 o'clock on Tuesday morn ing, thus cheating the gallows out of one of the moat brutal criminals of the nine teenth century. His two sons and awo man named Mary Ann Porter have been arrested to answer the charge of having furnished him the strychnine. THE Chambersburg Public Opinion, of Saturday last, contained likenesses of Hez ekiah Shaffer, who was executed in that place on the 17th of April last for the murder ofbis wife, and "Peachy" Swingler, (colored,) who was hanged on Friday last for the murder of John Anderson, at a colored ball on the 17th of December last. The condemned man acted as though he was going on a picnic excursion instead of making a leap into eternity. Upon reach ing the scaffold iSwingler himself placed the rope around his neck. The Sheriff had him remove it to allow him to make any remarks he wished. He then said whisky and bad company brought him there, and advised all to abstain from them. Re thanked the Sheriff and attendants for their kindness, and said he was ready, and again placed the rope around his neck, which the Sheriff again had removed. After prayer the cap was placed over his head, the rope adjusted, the trap sprung at 11:05, and at 11:15 he was pronounced dead. THE commissioners of Franklin county, it seems, have been charging and receiving pay for mileage, hotel bills and livery hire, but the present Auditors have refused to pass an account of over six hundred dol. Lars expended by the present commissioners in this way, and these gentlemen will have to refund this sum, Editor. BEruttE the adjournment the House elected Messrs. Ww. Hill, Gatehell, James Neil, Gentner, S. J. Smith, and Bradford, a committee to receive and open the re turns or the next State election, and the Senate elected Messrs. Gazzim. Royer, Clark, and Craig. SENATOR BRUCE, of Mississippi, the only colored member of that body, is said to be the handsomest man from the South in the Senate. THE STATE COLLEGE. According to the report of the com-, mittee appointed by the Legislature to in vestigate the management of the State Ag ricultural College, it is clearly evident that this institution falls far short of accom plishing the objects it was intended it should accomplish when such large sums of money were spent in its establishment. Under its present management it is worse than useless, and seems to be run with a view to making money for the private purses of those having it in charge. But the report of the committee will tell the tale of its workings better than we can do it, and we therefore publish it : In submitting the evidence the committee beg leave to report, as the result of the investigation into the affairs of the Pennsylvania State College, that while the evidence does not show the actual fraud or disclose corrupt management of the funds received by said institution, yet your committee are of the opinion that the testimony does con nectedly indicate that the institution has been very badly managed ; that its location is a very undesirable one; that the building is entirely un suited for the purpose for which it was erected; that the agricultural department, which was in tended to be the leading object of the institution, has never been a success, and that the State has never received and is not now receiving benefits at all commensurate with the amount of money which has been appropriated to said institution by the United States and this State. We also find that the Congress of the United States granted to this State 780,000 acres of land, which, by bad management, netted the State only $439,000; that the act of Congress granting this vast amount of land required that the prooeeds thereof should be used by the State mainly in the interest of agriculture and the mechanical arts ; that the interest accruing from this fund, in ad dition to some $400,000 appropriated by the State Legislature, is used and controlled by the trustees of said agricultural college; that in addition thereto the trustees aforesaid sold the bond of the State, bearing six per cent. interest, dated Feb ruary 2, 1872, calling for $500,000 and falling due fifty years from date, from which the said trustees derive a revenue of $30,000 annually. Your com mittee find the evidence discloses the further tact that the deeds fur all the freehold belonging to said Pennsylvania State College, including the experimental farms, are held by the aforesaid trustees, not in trust for the Commonwealth, but for the aforesaid trustees and their successors. Your committee also find that the experimental farms owned by said trustees, which were to be conducted solely in the interest of the agricultural classes of the Commonwealth, have utterly failed to accomplish the object intended. This is nut only the case of the Western farm, located in In diana county, which is not now a third-class farm nor in as good condition as when purchased. Your committee ale) find that at the present ses sion of the college but forty six students in at tendance, many of whom were non-residents •f the State, and there is now in the employ of the college eleven professors, which we deem out of all proportion with the number of students in at tendance. Finally, your committee is of the opinion that the trustees have signally failed to carry out the object for which the magnificent land grant was given by the United States, and which was further sought to be accomplished by most liberal appropriations on the part of the State.
