Notices of New Adtcrtiseuiruts. J. Ard Matthews' notice that be has fallen -on a fortune aud requesting claimants and "friends in need" to call on him for their dues -and assistance, was received too late for pub lication this week. The County Superintendent gives notice that a Teachers' Institute will be held in Mc- Yeytown, commencing on the 20th inst., and also of the times and places for holding the ovnnual examinations of teachers.

We hope every taxpayer in Mifflin coun ty will this fall ask himself the question why he should vote for Dr. Bower to rep resent Mifflin county in the next legisla ture ? We have given substantial reasons why he should not be re-elected, by show ing that his votes on most of the impor tant questions up before that body were against the wishes and interests of a major ity of the people, and thus far no defence of his inconsistencies has been attempted, but we have been met with the puerile cry that we are assailing his private character, and that the Dr. is a democrat! Such rca- soiling in years gone by was potent enough to cover sins of all kinds, but now, when small sums of money are becoming of es sential importance to all classes, it is to be hoped that taxpayers will awaken to the importance of economy in legislation as well as at home. It is by such a test that Dr. Dower's course ought to be tried to as certain whether he has been faithful to the few or the many. Examine liis votes —in- quire about his promises previous to his lirst election—compare them with his acts —and you can judge for yourselves wheth er if he were your agent on a farm or in ~ome other important business, you would rtrust him again under corresponding cir cumstances.

BSt-According to the latest British advices, the iron trade has rather more orders, and the impression is that it is likely to be better Do you hear that, laboring men ? IC@uThe wife of Simon Kantz, of Peons township, Snyder county, committed suicide on Wednesday two weeks, by hanging herself with a martingal at a rack in the barn. No reason, says the Selinsgrove Democrat, can be assigned by the family or any other per son why she committed the deed. She leaves ■a husband and twelve children, the youngest being but live mouths old. More Foreign Preferences. A SEFCVIML Water Pipe Business. Captain Meigs, who appears to be the principal favorite of the present and last democratic administrations, it seems some time ago gave another evidence of his pref erence for foreigners quite as exceptionable as his recent course in not stipulating that the great water pipe contract should be of American iron. The Cosmopolitan Art Journal, in a review of the new Capitol, justly censures the course pursued in dec orating that building, and copios a letter from which we make the following extracts: "The best artists of the country, with scarcely an cxcepti HI, have offered their ser vices, and asked to he employed upon the Cap itol. Without an exception their applications have been rejected, and the work of decora tion is going rapidly forward under the direc tion of an Italian, whose reputation is little better than that of a skilful scene painter, and who employs under him a crowd of six ty or seventy foreign painters, chiefly Italians and Frenchmen. The result of their labors is now visible here and there throughout the new wings in tawdry and gaudy ornaments, vile in taste, puor in design, and offensive in color. The most flagrant and conspicuous scene of their exertions so far is the Senate Naval Committee room—an apartment about thirty feet by twenty in size. The decorations of this one room have already cost SIO,OOO, and the ornamentation, suou ns it is, is yet far from being complete. It is scarcely pos sible to imagine anything more absurd, or in more outrageous taste. Yet it is entirely in keeping with the general style of decoration of the Capitol, which is a servile, tastless re production of the Pompeian style, with its worn-out fade, wearisome gods, goddesses, nymphs, and monsters, of which all sensible, cultivated men have long been tired, and which have passed away from literature and art wherever literature and art flourish. The responsibility for this defacement of the Capitol rests, i am sorry to learn, upon Captain Meigs, the engineer in charge of the Capitol extension. I have heretofore defen ded him from attacks that were made upon the new Ifall of Representatives. That llall, after six months' daily observation and use of it, I maintain to be as well adapted to its pur pose as any llall well can he. For that, and for the general construction of the Capitol ex tension, Captain Meigs deserves high credit. He is a man of intelligence and uniinpeacha ble integrity, who has must faithfully execu ted the important duties which have been committed to his charge. liut his approba tion or toleration of the monstrosities under the name of Art, which are being perpetra ted under his eyes, shows that he has not the taste nor the cultivation which might entitle hini to absolute and unquestioned direction of the decorations of the buildings. Such di rection he has assumed. Throughout the Capitol in the matter of art his will is law, and no man is suffered to touch a brush who does not conform implicitly te that will. Our native artists of distinction, with reputations at stake, will not submit to the dictation of a man who may be a good engineer, but who is certainly no artist, and who just as certainly has no taste for art The consequence is, that the Capitol is in the hands of a crowd of IN FERIOR AND NEEDY FOREIGNERS, who paint what they are told to paint at so much a day for their work. If this is suffer ed to go on the Capitol will be for ages the laughing-stock of the cultivated world. This penchant for foreigners and foreign subjects in a National building intended to hist for ages, is singular, but in keeping with many other acts of this democratic administration, which seems to prefer any thing foreign, down to heathenism, to Amer ican battles on sea and land, American por traits, American scenery, or American feel ings. The people however are awakening from their lethargy, and having now the evidence before their eyes of what exces sive importations of foreign goods, manu factured at low wages, produce, the cry will soon ring abroad from every hill and valley for a Protect ice Tariff, regardless of British, French, Dutch, Irish, or any other interests. Senator Biglcr on Weak Knees. It will be remembered that Senator Big ler of Pennsylvania, during the last Con gress, was a most violent Leeomptonite, and aspired to be chief executioner of Wal ker, Stanton, and all others who revolted from the infamous plot to force Slavery up on Kansas. From that fact the following extract of a LETTER FROM MR. BIG LER 1 O MR. STANTON is peculiarly in teresting, if not important, as a contribu tion to tlu: secret history of Kansas affairs. The letter is dated Clearfield Pa., Aug. 14, 185 i, and is doubtless authentic: "Make my special regards to Gov. Waiker, and say to him that he has the poj/ular heart with him throujltout the entire country except only the extreme South. Should thia program me succeed, he will have the most enviable prom inence f any man in the nation. The Admin istration is a little weak at the knees, and winces under the .Southern thunder, hut it must stand up to the work." Bigler don't deny this letter, but his or gan at Clearfield is quite wrothy atßtanton for making known the contents of a pri vate letter. There will be some other Le comptonites "weak in the knees" before IODg 2 KANSAS ELECTION RETURNS. The Board of Election Commissioners, constituted by the " English Bill," have issued a proclamation, declaring the pro position rejected by nine thousand five hundred and twelve majority. The whole vote was thirteen thousand and eighty eight. No fraudulent votes were received, but a few precincts were rejected on ac count of informalities. Nearly ton thou sand majority in condemnation of the bribe tendered the people of Kansas by the Ad ministration, to sacrifice their principles and make Kansas a slave Htate 1 J toes anybody feci weak about the knees? Telegraphic News from Europe, The city papers at the close of last week ; contain the following despatches, transmit- ; ted through the Atlantic cable, which were furnished for general information to the associated press: Triumph of the Atlantic Cable —Eleven days Later —llighly Important News—Treaty of Peace Concluded between England tk China —France and England Indemnified —Mu- ; tiny at Bombay Subdued. VALENTIA, Ireland, August 25, 1858. —8y j the arrival of later advices form India and China at London, we havo intelligence to transmit. A Treaty of Peace has been concluded with China. England and France arc to be in demnified for the expenses attending the war. Bombay dates to the 19th of July say that the mutiny was being rapidly quelled and subdued. The London papers of yesterday (Tuesday) have a large and interesting report of Mr. Bright, the company's engineer, on the Atlan tic telegraph. Tho steamer Asia will leave Liverpool for New York on Saturday. Another Triumph of the Telegraphic Cable— Tendon News of To day—Six Days from St. Petersburg—Sickness of the King of Prussia—Return of the Emjieror Napoleon to Paris—The Terms of the Treaty With China. LONDON, Friday Morning, August 27.—The Emperor Napoleon will return to Paris to morrow. Tho King of Prussia is sick and unable to visit Queen V ictoria. Her 3lajesty, the Queen, returns home on Monday next The terms of the treaty with China open tho trade ot that vast Empire to all nations. The Christian religion is to be allowed. For eign dijlimatic agents are to be admitted, and full indemnity is to be made to England and France. There is no mention of America in the terms of the treaty. ST. PETERSBURG, Saturday, August 21. The announcement of the conclusion of peace with C'hiua gave great satisfaction to the Emperor and the whole Court. ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, AugustO.—Thesteam er Madras arrived at Suez on the 7th, with ButuLay dates to the 19th of July. There is nothing important form India to add to the advices of yesterday. The last despatch left London in the morning, was recieved before the hour of noon and published in the afternoon edition of the city papers. The despatch not only brings news direct from London, but places us practically within less than twenty days of Alexandria, Egypt. It is worthy of remark, as a suggestive coincidence, that the first news despatch over the Atlantic Cable was an announcement of peace con cluded, whilst the second informs us of the terms of the treaty by which the vast Empire of China will be thrown open to the trade of the world. JterTh e Democrat of this week abounds in all kinds of charges against us, against Mr. Peach)*, and against the opposition gen erally, backed by the usual number of "fibs" which annually appear in that print at this season. It considers our advocacy of a sale of all the public works full justifica tion for l)r. Bower voting for what he promised he would not; goes in fur the free whiskey bill of course; and defends the 50 cent militia tax under the pretext that it has been imposed long ago. That's true, but the difference is that it was not collected, while now it will be; and what that difference will be, can be inferred from the fact that in 1857 the amount paid in to the State Treasury by this county for militia tax was but £135. As there arc over 3000 taxables in Mifflin county, any one can figure out, after making due allow ance for exonerations, what a compulsory collection will produce. It is now pay or go to jail, as a good many hard working men will find out, perhaps not l<fore the election, but certainly before the pres ent duplicates are settled. | The Edinburgh lie vie iv for July, con i tains a series of articles on themes of un i usual interest, comprising Hugh Miller, ; Thier's History of the Consulate and the j Empire, The Progress and Spirit of Phys ical Science, Canning's Literary lleuiains, The Health of the Army, The Celts and the Germans, Posthumous Memoirs . and Songs of Berangcr, Chronicles of the i Teutonic knights, Froude's King Henry !

The Westminster Hi view and 'The Ijundun Quarterly limb w also ! commence volumes with the July number. In order to issue these works at an earlier day alter their appearance in Great Pritain, Messrs.

If | their tales are to be believed, both must bo somewhat inclined to " Mormonism." BM&.The Democrat makes a sour face over ; its endorsement of Mr. Peachey two years ago. Mr. Peachey is now what ho was then, | an upright and honest man, and all that that 1 paper can now say will not afford an iota of a I reason why democrats should not vote for hiui. I LOCAL AFFAIRS. B@t„3lessrs. Shimp & Major commenced pork butchering last week, and furnished the first sausage and pudding at market this season 011 Saturday morning. The stock went off like "hot cakes." Beef, pork, veal and mutton can hereafter be gen erally had every Wednesday and Saturday mornings. Camp Meeting of the 31. K. church for Kishacoqullas circuit commen ced near Reedsville on Friday last, and closed on Wednesday morning. There were some twenty-five tents up, and the at tendance on Sunday is said to have been unusually large. QUARTERLY MEETING. —The 2d Quar terly 31eeting of the 31. E. Church will commence on Saturday morning next, Sep tember 4th ,at 11 o'clock. Camp meeting prayer meetings will be held on Thursday and Friday evenings, in the Lecture lloom of the church.

Mitchell, delegates to attend the election of three Trustees for the Farmers' High School. jfetTThe Juniata Fire Company will meet on this (Thursday) evening, when business of importance will be transacted. SUDDEN DEATH. —Dickson A. Burns, brother of James Burn s, Esq., died sud denly on Saturday morning last. He had arisen and was preparing to go to market, and while descending the stairs fell down. He called on those above, but before tliey reached him he had expired. He was about 4 J years of age and leaves a wife and three children. A military light- infantry company was organized at Belleville on Saturday last under the named' the Belleville Fencibles. Br. K. Bigelow was elected Captain. Ma jor Kisenbise, and the musicians and sundry members ol' the Logan Guards were pres ent at the inspection. BSk-Joseph, a son ot John B. Selhcimer, Esq., while climbing across the iron railing at the court house yard 011 Saturday last, was caught by one leg and fell with con siderable force against the stone capping, injuring his nose so as to require stitching of the skin. He made a narrow escape of sustaining a life injury. feas"'Uev. Thos. Stuart and lady returned from Kansas on Tuesday evening in good health. We arc sorry to learn that the fire at Leavenworth, from which Messrs. Stuart and McCormick suffered so severely, was more destructive than was first reported. The firm lost about 815,000 above the in surance, but is going on again and will we hope retrieve the misfortune. Mr. 8. de signs returning to Kansas. Fit's ANI LEVIES. —The principal mer chants and business men of this place yes terday signed a written pledge hereafter to take these nuisances only at five and ten cents respectively. This course it is ho ped will drive them from circulation alto gether. He would suggest in addition "selling" at 0} and 12A be also dispensed with. IMPROVEMENTS.—Preparations arc truing on lor putting up a distillery near the lieeds ville turnpike, outside the borough limits. This is rather an anomalous "improvement" at tiie present day, but as whiskey is to be a current article during (Jov. Packer's term, we suppose folks may as well get drunk on home manufacture as any other. Fisher, the brewer, we perceive is constructing a large vault for keeping lager, which, taken in connection with the above, would seem to indicate that whiskey and lager are the only paying business now going on. In West Third street, a building has been put up on the old brickyard lot, the lower part designed for dwellings, the upper as a hall for the King Cyrus Lodge of A. Y. M. (colored.) [From the Loraiu Co. Eagle, Ohio.] Many kinds of Tonic are advertised that we are assured will strengthen the hair and prevent its falling out, but none that we have seen used does all that it promises, save that of Professor O. J. Wood. This we know is good from having tried it, and witnessed in several enses its truly benelicial effects. Dr. Wood was kind enough to send usaeoupleof bottles, and after finding that it prevented our hair from falling out, we presented a bottle to a friend who had boeu bald for at least thirty years. It has restored his hair entirely, and it is now as thick and glossy as when he was twenty-five. This we say in all sincerity, and we shall be glad to have our friends try it for themselves, as we believe it is just what it professes to be. See advertisement. High Price for Negroes. —At the sale of the personal effects of B. S. Lamar, deceased, on Thursday last, in Bnckeystown District, Fred erick county, three negro hoys sold for $2,840. One aged about 17 years, brought $l,OlO, and the other about 8 or 9 years of age $725. these prices are unprecedented, and indicate a considerable rise in the market.— Westmin ster {Mil.) Sentinel. For the Gazette. One of Dr. Bovver's Legislative Feats. Editor Gazette—ln this part of the county wo are at a loss to understand the utility and object of Dr. Bower's snake bill, or in other words, his bill legislating out of office the Poor Directors of Mifliin county. We fre quently hear the question asked, Why was this done? The current report which is gen erally believed runs about thus. Some one, two, or three Individuals in or about Lewis town, who have ruled the Democracy of this county for a number of years, had a personal grudge at one of the Poor Directors, and be ing foiled in every attempt to injure him, re solved to try what could be done by special legislation. To accomplish this object, a pe tition of some half dozen signers, or therea bouts, was got up secretly and sent to Harris burg in charge of the Doctor. lie drafted the bill and hurried it through the Lower House. When it reached the Scrsate he went into the Senate Chamber and requested tliat it be passed immediately, giving assurance that there was no opposition to the bill in Mifliin county. While the bill was yet pending in the Low er House, the trick was discovered, and the citizens of Lewistown being advised of the Doctor's doings at once got up a remonstrance, and in one day about one hundred and fifty signatures to the paper were obtained, lu the valley remonstrances were also signed by almost every taxpayer who was applied to. These remonstrances were without delay sent to Ilarriaburg, and reached the Senate Cham her just too late to prevent the passage of the bill. When they were presented to the Sen ate, one of the members arose and expressed strong indignation at the fraud practiced on that body. The Governor was immediately apprized of the imposition and requested to veto the bill. After holding it over several days, one of the originators of the conspiracy, who had influence at court, informed the Governor that "ail is right," when he signed the bill and it became a law. It is further rumored that as soon as the snake bill was discovered at Lewistawn, the Doctor was written to and requested to stay proceedings until a general expression of sen timent would be obtained from his constitu ents, hut the Doctor, true to his clique, turned a deaf ear to the multitude and had this hill passed for the express purpose of doing a personal injury to an honest, unsuspecting individual, and all this at the bidding of some two or three politicians to whom the election of .John Cubbison was objectionable. \\ e hope this is not the true state of the | case, and therefore call 011 Dr. Bower to vin dicate himself before an incensed community. If he is slandered, let him give good reasons (if he can) for getiing up and passing clan destinely this uncalled for bill, by which such men as John Atkinson. John Peachy, and John Cuhbis in, were legislated out of office, at an expense of several hundred dollars, so speedily that they were beheaded before they j dreamed they were in danger. OLIVER.

Dr. Geo. B. Green—Dear Sir—Having been a great sufferer from Dyspepsia, and having been cured.as I believe by your Oxygenated Bitters, I most cheerfully attest their etiieaey. My case was a bad one. In the space of four months I lost my strength, and forty-seven pound of flesh, was compelled to abandon business, and remained an invalid for fifteen months. Travelling and absence from office duty had done something for me, but there seemed little probability of a cure until I be gan to take the Bitters. In oue week 1 was greatly relieved, and in three weeks I was perfectly well, and have since regained thirty pounds of flesh. You are at liberty t use this, if it will at all further your laudable purpose of diffusing this valuable remedy. Respectfully yours, C. C. TRUWIJRIDGE.
