Dead. Hon. II. N. McAllister, of
liellofonte, ono of the membci-s of tho
Constitutional Convention, died In
Philadelphia on tho 6th, aged sixty
four years. Exces.iivo labor in the
Convention no doubt hastened bis

Hon. S. S. Cox, who has lately
traveled over a large portion of tho
United States, writing of tho political
prospect says. : "Our sido is looming

Awful Accident. At Dixon, Illi

Tub Nkw York Herald. This
journal is certainly outstripping all
other in tho way of enterprise We
suspect, from what is going on in Eu

who wisli to know what is going on

Tho great feature boforo tho Amer
ican people for tho noxt throo years
will bo our National Celebration in
Philadelphia on tho 4lh of July, 1376
the one hundredth anniversary of
American Independence. Every State
in the Union it moving in this mat
ter, and, properly, Pennsylvania is
taking tho load. Not only will it bo
a jubilee in which every American can
participate, but enough has already
transpired to show that evory nation
in tho known woild designs taking a
hand in this celebration. And in this
mnnnor hundrods of thousands of for
eigners will visit our shores who would
olborwiso never dream of coming
among us. Theso National Exhibi
tions aro becoming as frequent and
popular as State or county fairs and
never again will so crowning an op
portunity offer itself to Americnns as
tho -llti of July, 1870, In Philadelphia.
Our Stute Legislature acted wisoly
and patriotically In passing an Act
providing fur a million of dollars to
be used is tho erection of proper
buildings in tho city of Philadelphia,
for this great National Colouration.
In has also done well in selecting gen
tlemen of varied talents, and who pos
sess a Stnto reputation for integrity
and business enterprise, to oversee and
construct the proper buildings for tbe
exhibition. With such names as Al
exander Henry, John 0. James, John
Gillinghnm Full, of Philadelphia; Jno.
II. Shocnbergcr and Wti. M. Lyon,
of Pittsburg; Ex-Governor Biglor, of
Clearfield; Ario Pardee, of Wilkcs
burro.; Gcorgo Messcrmith,cf Cham
bersburg, and John Ewing, of Wash
ington ; no Vienna "bargain and sale"
dare bo attempted.
It Is mado the duty of tho gcnllo
men named, under the Act, in connec
tion with tho United States Commis
sioners, to determino upon the archi
tectural design of the buildings and
to contract for their erection. They
are also required, as tho woik pro
gresses, to estimate the valuo of tho
matoiial used and tho work performed.
And only through them can tho con
tractor draw bis pay for tho work dooo.
The duties imposed on tho gentlemen
named is extraordinary in its scope of
expenditure and design, and tho suc
cess of tho enterprise depends largely
upon them. However, an Act em
bellished with such names is a guar
antee, to every Pcnnsylvanian that the
grandest building in America will be
erected in Kairmount Park, tho csti
mated cost of which will not bo less
than three million dollars. And with
in its walls, on the 4th of July, 187C,
will bo exhibited tho finest specimens
of National, Mechanical and Agricul
tural products ever exhibited on this
continent, and from ull tho nations of
tho world, together with tho types
and pictures of the works of tho arts
and sciences of hundreds of years past.
Whero is tho American so unpatri
otic as to rti'vine to contribute a few
paltry dollars toward a 4th of July, in
1870, that ftliull vibrato throughout
tho world and rcdeditatc America to
Virtue, Liberty and Independence for
ever f Wo havo fullon from grace,
and if not reconverted nnd fully re
stored on this occasion, wo may as
well hang our "harps on tho willows,"
striko up a funeral dirgo and march
down ths long avonuos of decayed
States and lost Empires. '
.Vnf.ry's fourth Term.
Tho Harrisburg correspondent of
tho Philadelphia Press asserts that
Stato Treasurer Muckcy has been leg
islatcJ into office, without giving any
socurily. Tho writer says tho resolu
tion which extends bis term docs not
provide for securities, and, as a matter
of course, tbo men on Mr. Mackey's
bonds for his last term cannot bo leg
Mated to continue as such for unoth
or year. Thus Mr. Muckcy will have
tho handling of several millions of
dollars of public revenuo withoutgiv
ing tho Slulo a farthing of security
for the faithful performance of his du
ly, a mark of confidence highly com
plimentary on tho part of his devoted
friends, but an act of legislation which
illustrates how little regard is evinced
for tho people's interest by thoso who
mako our laws. How this omission
in this bill was overlooked by the lo
gul eyes which perform all tho scru
tiny that has impelled tho excrciso of
the veto power during the lust Legis
lature is not for me to say, but I dure
write that it is nraoeountabld. As
usual, in schemes of this kind, tbe
bill thus extending tho term of tho
Stato Treasuroy for another yeur was
nover printed, it being withheld pur
posely from tho publiu printer to pre
vent the detects It contains front bo
ing seen by the people, and it was not
fully understood by iiino-tcnihs of the
numbers of either tboHenato or Hooso.
This beats tho Gcorgo O. Evans plot
ail hollow. If Mackcy don't rob the
Troasury it will not bo beouuso his
loynl brethren have not given him the
chnnco.
A Hank Robber. Tho Atlantic
National Bank, of New York, has
failed. Tho capital (1100,000) is a
total loss to tho ntockholders, and do
pr.sitors loco probubly 1200,000 more
Tho Government oinminers and ox
perls had pronounced the concern
sound only a week before, yet, tho
cashier confossos that the frauds have
run through tho bank for over five
years. So much fur "Qovernmun
examiners." Tho old, old story i
told. Tho cashier, F. L. Puintor,
"ono of tho finest citizens of N'ow
York," g'tmbled and squanduroQ th
funds of his employers. Tbe idea tha
one tinglo scoundrel should waste fou
hundred thousand dollurs is awful.

Loyal Itapnrlly.
A trial, which has just been conclu
ded in the courts of Virginia, will
serve to illustrate one of the processes
by which loyalty contrived lo flourish
on tho calamities and misfortunes of
lb civil war. Th prominent parties
to this swindlo are Judge John C. Un
derwood, and Messrs. Ames, Alley
and Iloopor, a loyal triumvirate of
Alassachuaelis congressmen. In lfoi
William N. M Voiirh, rrosident of a
bank in Alexandria, Vs., who was up
wards of sixty year of age, obtainod
permission from the United States
military authorities to pass through
their linos and join his family in Cul
pepper county, ' Ilia real estate in
Alexandria consisted 01 a Due resi
dence, and warehouses und wai f prop
erty worth 175,000. Tho absenco of
U'VeiL'h furnished an excellent op
portunity to rob him under the protcxt
of bis disloyalty to the Government.
Judge Underwood covotod tho hand
some rosidenco ol tno aosontoo; as
bettor suited to his now-born judicial
dignity, and tho ring of Massachusetts
Congressmen wanted lo make a splen
did speculation in tho sulo of the
wharf property to tho Government.
Tho first thine in the rascally job was
lo sell tho property under a decree ol
confiscation. Una Juuire Underwood
hud no difficulty in accomplishing.
Tbo properly was seized and sold at a
mock auction, and knocked down at a
mere nominnl figure
In the meanlimo, a Uiiltirr.ors cred-
tor of M'Voigh, with a clulm of ,7.000,
discovered this proposed game of con-
nscalion and Went to tVaabinirton to
confer with Amos and Alloy n order
to have the sale postponed. Thoy re
ferred him to Underwood, who refused
o poslpono the sale. - lie wanted to
buy a nico property for hi wife, and
this residence of MVeigh suited him
exactly. As to th Baltimore claim,
lie was willing to nay hair or It lor
his share in case he obtained the house
On the 11th of April, 1804, the sale
took place In Alexandria, Ames, Alley,
Underwood nnd tialdcrson, tho Uulti-
more croditor of M Voiuh. boing in
attendance, fialdcrson announced the
priority of his claim under the at
tachment. The mansion of Jl'Voiirh,
worth 630,000, was knockod down to
John U. Alloy for Mrs. Maria u. Ln
derwood for (1,300, who, with her
husband, thojudgo wont into I in modi
ate possession. Anothor portion of
mo property was sold to Ames und
Alley on equally lavorablo terms, A
house nnd lot wore conveyed to John
Underwood, United States Marshal,
and his Deputy, Wm. A. Duncan, for
their share in tho infamous swindlo.
liitldcrson, tho liulliiuore creditor,
then sold his claims against M Veigh
and assigned tho judgments to Alley,
Ames, Hooper and Duncan. The
property was then sold again to satis
fy thene judgments at a Sheriff's sale,
unit tho ring thus obtained what they
considered a double title lo it. For
less thun f 18,000 they obtained real
estate intrinsically worth four times
tho amount, on which thoy expectod
to reanzu an untold sum in specula-
tion. A judgo of tho courts of ths
Llnitod States, two Federate Marshals,
and three loyal member of Con if res"
Iroin loyal Massachusetts, constituted
this nolarinu ring of plunderer. At
lust the courts have untangled the in
tricute wob of villuiny, and the con
spinlors have been compelled lo dis
gorge their booty. Underwood mast
not only surrender the mansion to its
rightlul owner, but he and Ins fellow
conepiiulora must pay a claim, for

A siiocial dispatch from Now Gr
oans say that tho partisans of the
Kollngg and Packard usurpation in
Louisiana are endeavoring to retrieve
themselves of the odium of tholr po
sition by sending lyiug telegrams in
respect to the trouble in Grant Par
ish, Louisiana, and in this are warmly
seoonded by the mendacious organs of
the 'resident at this point. Jtlarslial
Packard and United Slate District
Attorney Bockwith.sre tho loaders in
this disgraoetul business, and have
forwarded highly, inflammublo dis
patches to Attorney General William,
based upon the reports of Douklyno,
ono of Marshal Packard' hired un
derlines. In theso dispatch) tho im
portant fact i ignored that the ne
groes had instituted a war against the
whites, and oven upon tno county ol
flciuls commissioned by Kellogg, and
instituted a mob rolgn ol rapine and
violence, undor which no white man
or woman was safe. The administra
tion and thoir oity organs aro much
distressed that in this conflict of races
the whites should have proved victo
rious, and accordingly there I to be
an invostigation by United Stato of
ficer, bayonet rulo, arbitrary arrests,
uries packed by ruckard ot hi own
partisans, and triuls orcranitod to con
vict, to be conducted by the Infamous
Enroll, by way of putting tbo blacks

The mercantile proclivities of Grant's
administration, in the salo of office,
a as notorious to the publio as uis
wandoiini;s oter the country. Far
o(T Mormondom has been tampered
with. Tho Salt Lake Herald, of tbe
6tb nit., stales that an action has been
commenced in one of tho Courts In
Utah Territory, by ono Thomas J.
Drake, ot 1'ontiac, (Mich.) against
Obed F. Strickland, for tbo recovery
of 12,800, as promised by promisso
ry note, dated Washington city, March
2t, IKfjO, in which Mr. Strickland
promises to pay to Mr. Drako, or lo
his order, 1700 on the 1st of October,
1809, and a like sum on the 1st of
January, 1870, and on the 1st day of
July, 1870, and on the 1st day of Jan
uary, 1871 ; but providing that no
pay moms falling duo after the maker's
death can be collected 1 hero Is some
thing more than meets tho eyo in this
business. Drake, at tho limo this
note was mado, was a Judge of tbe
United Stste Court, in Ltuh, and
Strickland was in Washington after
an office. Ho proposed to Drake that
if he would resign and get him his
place (a lour years berth) he would
give him the first yeur' sulury. Drako
resigned and Strickland was mudohis
successor, (erred his fonr years, but
forgot to pay Drake the money no
promised, wherefore, as tbo declara
tion doubtless slates it, ho brings suit.
Here is another spccnnon of tho suc
cess of Grant in his selections for

judicial commission purchased.

There has been found in Eldrcd town
