Some democratic papers denounce this
measure in strong language as a scheme of
the old " State robbers" to fill their dilap
idated purses. In connection with this sub
ject it may not be out of place to remind
our democratic friends that previous to the
last election some excitement was created
by our charge that Dr. Bower, if elected,
would vote for the Sunbury and Erie Kail
road loan, to which the Democrat of Septem
ber 10, 1851, gave the following expdicit de
nial, and subsequently professed to have the
authority of Dr. Bower for a general de
nial of our charges:
"We have FLLL ALHIORITY for saying
that Dr. Bower will not vote for anv appro
priation to the Sunbury and Erie Railroad
Company. No such project is or has been
contemplated, and no such appropriation ask
ed for by that Company. This the Gazette
knows as well as we do—and yet it has the
unfairness to allege that Dr. Bower is commit
ted to such action. But further, our candi
date, Dr. Bower, is opposed in toto to GRANT
ING THE CREDIT OF THE STATE, as a
loan or IN ANY O'IIIER SHAPE, either~t-j
the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Company, or
to any other corporation for any amount
whatever. Will the Gazette do the democrat
ic party and its candidates the common jus
tice to say so, now that it has repeatedly al
leged and insinuated the contrary."
As Dr. Bower voted for the bill as given
above, we leave our readers to determine
how much of a gift it is to the Sunbury
and Erie Railroad Company, and how far
it tallies with the pledges given by himself
and friends last fall as to his course as a
legislator!

American Meeting in Blair Count)'.
The Americans of Blair county recently
held a meeting at which the following sen
sible resolutions were adopted. Union
among the opposition, not merely one of
expediency but of general sentiment, such
as characterised the whig party in its palmy
days, is most desirable; and to effect this,
all ought to be willing to yield something,
though care must be taken to keep out of
the lead the swindlers and political scoun
drels who first destroyed the whig and then
the American party. Purge the opposition
of these, and CRITTENDEN or any other
good man who may be named will be the
next President.
Resolved, That the pandering of any Polit
cal party of our Country to Foreigners or to
Hierarchies, is fraught with manifold evils, is
subversive of the best interests of the country,
and ought to receive the uncompromising
condemnation of every American freeman.
Resolved, That there is no antagonism be
tween labor and capital, but that they are
mutually dependent upon each other; and
that the present prostration of American La
bor and American Manufacturers, admonishes
us of the necessity of protecting the same by
a judicious Tariff of specific duties from that
ruinous competition with the combined capi
tal and pauper labor of Europe; and that Con
gress should enact such laws as will protect
American Labor and American capital from
such ruinous competition.
Resolved, That we are opposed to the ex
tension of Slavery over Territory now free ;
and that the use of the power of the General
Government to that end, as in Kansas, under
the Administration of Presidents Pierce and
Buchanan, is an outrage upon the Govern
ment, disgraceful to the country and to hu
manity, and should ever be firmly resisted.
Resolved, That the attempt of the present
Democratic Administration to force upon the
people of Kansas a Constitution which a great
majority of them have rejected with indigna
| tion and abhorrence, and in utter contempt
i of the popular will, should excite against the
Administration party the determined opposi
tion of the friends of true Democracy and a
Republican government, in all parts of the
countiy ; that this is the 82d year of Ameri
can Independence, and not the Ist year of
American Monarchy, and that we are for
cherishing and maintaining the Rights of the
people against the assaults of truckling poli
ticians, ambitious knaves, and fanatical sec
tioual bravadoes.
Proceedings of Congress.
In the House of Representatives on Fri
day Mr. English reported, from the Confer
ence Committee on the Kansas bill, a sub
stitute recommended by Messrs. English
and Stephens of the House, and Messrs.
Green and Hunter of the Senate, and ob
jected to by Messrs. Seward of the Senate
and Howard of the House. The report
recites that whereas the people of Kansas
did adopt and send for the acceptance of
Congress a State constitution that is repub
lican, together with an ordinance that is
not acceptable to Congress, the said Terri
tory shall be admitted into the Union if the
people thereof, at an election to be held under
prescribed regulations, shall accept in lieu
of said ordinance the schedule of terms
offered by Congress to Minnesota. If not
accepting the said schedule of terms, then
the Territory shall not be admitted into the
Union until it may have the requisite pop
ulation according to the census when it may
enter the Union, after having formed a re
publican constitution. The bill, it will be
perceived, does not submit the Lecompton
Constitution to the vote of the people of
Kansas, but makes their acceptance or rejec
tion of the amended ordinance relative to
lands equivalent to the acceptance or rejec
tion of that instrument.
Immediately on the reception of the bill
Mr. Howard, Republican, moved to post
pone its consideration to Thursday week.
Mr. Stephens, Lecompton Democrat, moved
to make it the order for Monday next.
Mr. Hill, of Georgia, American, named the
second Monday in May, (next Monday two
weeks) and the motion prevailed, ayes 108,
nays 105. At the moment of taking the
vote a personal collision between Mr. Hill
and Mr. Gartrell, of Ga., was imminent,
growing out of the objection of the latter
to Mr. Hill's desire to explain his vote, but
the promptness of the Speaker averted the
danger.
The question was again brought up on
Monday, and postponed to yesterday. —
This attempt to bribe the people of Kansas
I to accept a villainous constitution by vo
! ting on the acceptance of public lands, is
another scheme worthy of a Buchanan ad
| ministration.
Holloway's Ointment awl Rills. —No disease
which afflicts the human family more fre
quently baffles the skill of the regular prac
titioner than hemorrhoids or piles. The nos
trum-mongers are equally at fault with their
electuaries and astringent topical applications.
Holloway's Ointment alone seems capable of
thoroughly obliterating the disorder. It acts
as a styptic upon th orifices of the vessels
which discharge the sanguineous Quids, sub
dues the inflammation and invigorates the
parts. As the presence of irritating matter
in the bowels is often a feature of the com
plaint, a few doses of the Pills may be given
with advantage while the cure is progressing.
W Mar's Balsam In Vermont^
IRASBURO, VT., May 5.
Mr. S. W. Fowle—Dear Sir—l am nearly
out of the Balsam of Wild Cherry. You may
forward, if you please, two or three dozen
more. The medicine gives better satisfaction
here in pulmonary complaints than any oth
ers that I have kept. I have tried it with
perfect satisfaction upon myself, having been
troubled with a severe cough for more than a
year, and having profuse night sweats for the
last month. I had tried various popular rem
edies without material benefit; at length I
tried W Mar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, and
before I had finished the first bottle 1 found
great relief. Iwo bottles have wrought a
cure. Yours, respectfully,

COLD WEATHER. —Quite a change occur
red in the weather on Saturday last, an oc
casional snow squall giving a rather un
pleasant variety. On Sunday and Monday
mornings a scum of ice was observable, and
on Tuesday morning it was formed in tubs,
Ac. a quarter of an inch thick. Cherries
and other fruits that were in blossom, as
well as tender vegetables growing in gar
dens, have of course been severely nipped
if not altogether destroyed.
IMPROVEMENTS. —The Town Council
have commenced stoning Market street, be
tween Dorcas and Brown, with a heavy
coating, which it is to be hoped will last for
many years. The Water Company has de
termined to extend the pipes about 300
feet on Mill street beyond their present
termination, and have ordered pipe for the
same. This extension will add another
fire plug to that section of the t wn, in it
self a matter of some consequence to prop

breaking off a wheel and the tongue of the
wagon.
THE STREET LAMPS. —One of those
low-lifed acts which none but a scoundrel
who ought to end his days in the peniten
tiary would be guilty, was perpetrated on
| Friday night last, between nine and ten
o'clock, by some one wantonly breaking the
frame and glass of the street lamp on the
corner of Grand and West Market. The
whole neighborhood owe it as a duty to the
Borough to ferret out the villain and have
him punished in a manner he will not soon
forget. A reward of 620 is offered for his
discovery.
PETTY THIEVES. —()ur up-river commu
nities, like this region, have been troubled
considerably this winter and spring by dep
redators who would steal whatever could
be laid hands on. Last week constable
Kiefhaber nabbed several whom he com
mitted to Jail, and got hold of another
who however escaped from his house, for
whom he offers a liberal reward. This
prompt action will probably break up the
gang, and leave more security for meat
houses, Ac. hereafter.

For the Gazette.
At a meeting of the subscribers, physicians
of Lewistown, held on the 24th of December,
1857, the subject of remuneration to the phy
sicians appointed by the Directors of the Poor
of Mifflin county being brought up and care
fully considered, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted :
Resolved, That the remuneration to the
physicians attending the county poer, owing
to the nature and extent of their services, has
been entirely inadequate.
Resolved, That the physicians attending the
Poor House should receive the annual com
pensation of two hundred dollars.
Resolved, That the "out door poor," or
persona receiving professional relief, should
be attended by such physicians as they may
themselves select, and the physicians so at
tending be compensated by the county at a
fair and just rate.
Or, Resolved, If the Directors prefer it, the
physicians appointed to attend the " County
Poor House" will attend that house for one
dollar a visit, two visits to be made a week,
and as many more as the cases may require.
Should the Directors accept this alternative,
in preference to the first proposition of two
hundred a year, then in addition te one dol
lar per visit, five dollars will be charged for
every "obstetrical case" in the house, and
surgical cases shall be paid for at the usual
rate of the "fee bill."
THOS. VANVALZAII,
S. S. CUM MINGS,
JOHN I. MARKS,
T. A. WORRALL,
ROBERT MARTIN.
By the foregoing statement it will be seen
that the alternate proposition gave the Direc
tors the power to receive the professional ssr
vices of two physicians to be selected by
themselves, at the old established rate of one
dollar for every necessary visit. This is the
same rate a private family is charged for this
distance. The number of necessary visits
the past year did not exeeed one hundred and
twenty-five, making $125
Five obstetrical cases at $5 each, 25
The out door practice may be set down at 40
Making for the wbole year, $l9O
It was a year of general health, neverthe
less it is not conceived that the whole expense
under any circumstances could have exceeded
the sum of S3OO.
Had any compromise been offered, they
would have been willing to give a guarantee
that the whole expense for the year, embra
cing every branch of service, should not go
beyond the sum of $250 ; and had the year
proved one of health, the sum would not have
amounted to s2oo—thus the county would
have been the gainer. In their opinion, this
is not too much, when the nature and extent
of the services are considered, embracing the
Poor House, the Borough and the district of
seven miles around it. But the premature
and precipitate appointment in February in
stead of March, the usual time of appoint
ment, prevented any accommodation. It will
be thus seen that the allegation made that
their proposition would cost the county from
SSOO to SIOOO, is entirely gratuitous and
without foundation. Respect for themselves,
no less than the public, renders the foregoing
statement proper and becoming on their part.
With this exposition, impeaching the motives
of no one, they dismiss the further considera
tion of the subject, leaving the public to form
their own opinion.

Broth for the Poo'r or Broth for Dr. Justice.
THAT'S THE QUESTION.
My article was only intended to draw pub
lic attention to the misrepresentations in the
Press, not to enter into a discussion wiih
"Justice" or any other demagogue. He re
pents his chicken story however with so much
gusto, and calls on the late steward so author
itatively, that 1 desire to ask whether said
steward could not have purchased some of
the chickens from Derry and Decatur that al
most daily passed the poor house, whenever
needed ? It is known that he exercised the
authority to purchase other matters he
thought necessary, in amount sufficient to
have bought two or three hundred chickens,
without particularly consulting the board,
and it therefore sounds passing strange, if
Justice's statement be true in the sense he
desires to convey it, that be could not supply
a sick pauper with broth without applying to
the board. The late steward may have said
that be had no chickens for broth, but I do
not believe either he or the directors were
bound down not to purchase chickens, or that
he ever said so. More likely it is a cock and
bull story of Justice's, on a par with the
statement in a late number of the Press that
there was swill enough at the poor house to
keep twenty-fee hoys, when the whole num
ber of inmates, including the steward and his
help, did not exceed twenty persons! It is
by such silly statements that Justice expects
to raise a candidate for the next election who
will furnish him with "broth," (not the poor)
a project quite worthy of a baby editor, but
of which an M. D. ought to be ashamed, or if
he is not. the profession ought to be ashamed
of him. Should he continue to administer
his quack nostrums to the public, on this sub
ject, when the election comes around he may
again hear from AX OLD STUDENT.
P. S. Did Justice ever read the story of the
ram who hutted himself away all hut the tail?
if he lias not, it is time to hunt it up. as it
suits his present Sancho Panza pursuit to a

He does himself up into a ball, eighteen
inches square, and makes himself comforta

behind him, and walks forward with his
heels in front; he carries a hump on his
shoulders, which, by a sudden movement
of the body, he thrusts forward upon his
chest, he showing its entire disappearance
from behind. l>y another movement, he
throws it to its more convenient restingplaee
on his back. On seeing his acting, one
would feel but little additional surprise to
see him take his head off and put it back

aged about 40 years.
The death of Mr. Cunningham is a loss to
our community of a valued citizen. With
the exception of a few years, his manhood
was spent in Lewistown, and through his
connection with the press, and as a public
officer, he was well known throughout the
country, and highly esteemed. He came to
this place from Huntingdon county shortly
after attaining his majority, and soon
won the confidence and regard which integ
rity and genuine manliness of character al
ways inspires, and sustained it to the last.—
lie' was loved most by those who knew him
best. lie was modest and unassuming, as he
was frank, open and generous. He had a
large heart which met the demands of mis
fortune more than half way, and alw ays
with a free and open hand. If he was gen
erous, he was also a just man in all his
intercourse with the world, discharging
every duty and meeting every responsibility.
Our friend has gone, and while this commu
nity laments its loss, it sympathizes with the
relatives in their painful bereavement. To
the God of the fatherless and the afflicted we
commend them for comfort in this hour of
misfortune. He was a good man, and his re
ward is on high ; his work is done and his
labors, in answer to his dying prayer ap*
proved. He rests in peace.
There's a world where all are equal—
We are hurrying towards it last —
We shall meet upon the level there,
When the gates of death arc passed ;
We shall stand before the Orient,
And our Master will be there,
And try the blocks we offer
By his own unerring square. W.
