Foster and his Friends.
The Lewistown Democrat copies a para
graph from the Clinton Democrat, alleging
that the extracts we gave a few weeks ago :
were forgeries. All we have to say is,
that if so they are very curious ones, and
a wholesale denial will hardly answer.—
We omitted a few paragraphs from the
\\ atcliman's article because they evidently
had more reference to those who voted for
Gen. Cameron than Foster, and shall there
fore feel obliged to either of the above
Democrats if they point out which para
graphs we published were forgeries. That
the democratic papers at the time denoun- ■
ced Gen. Foster, there is and can be no
doubt. For instance, what did the editor
of the Lewistown Democrat mean bv' the
following, which we find in that paper of
January 15, 1857:
" An fur Gen. Foster and his friends, al-
they did not vote for the opposition
candidate, their course, in declining to go in
to eaueus, and subsequently refusing to sup
port Col. Forney, was extraordinary and un
wise, to say the least of it; and thus far no
reasonable explanation has been made. We I
forbear, however, expressing THE IV PIG- i
NATION WIIICII TIIEIR COURSE HAS,
INSPIRED, until the circumstances arc fully
developed.
< 01. John \Y. Forney, although stricken
down for the present, through the treachery of
a few unworthy members of his own party,
as this day stronger in the affections of the
people than ever before, and we trust Mr. '
Buchanan will rebuke the traitors and vindi- '
cute the party by placing him in a post, better '
and more profitable than the one out of which f
ite was defrauded. His qualifications, his
services, and his personal worth are all ac
knuwleged, and it is due to him, as well as
to the dignity uf the Democratic party that
he should be fairly provided for.
Such has been the course of the Demo
cratic party heretofore ; and it should not be .
departed fruin now. Y\ hen Gov. Findley was
by unholy means, lie was sent to
the L. S. Senate; so to Guv. Bigler; and the i
same course was pursued towards Mr. Y r an
Buren and Judge Campbell. Not one of
tnesc precedents so strong an ap
peal to the of the party as the
present case. YY'e hope, therefore, the Pres
■•dent elect, when he takes his scat, will give
Mr. Forney the position he so richly deserves,
and which the Democratic party is anxious
to see him occupy. It is not for us to name
the place to which he is entitled. Suffice to '
say. in our opinion HE CANNOT BE PL V -
CED TOO IIIGI1."
A Southern Bully Nonplussed.
Almost from the first week of the pres
ent session of Congress a nigger democrat
from \ irginia who figures under the name
of Roger A. Pryor, has been endeavoring
to keep up his name as a professed duelist,
or would be murderer, by insulting remarks
or conduct towards republican mem
bers. Last week he took the liberty ol
erasing from the reporters notes remarks
which had been added by Mr. Potter of
Wisconsin, and then iu bis usual taunting
manner brought the subject before the
House. Mr. Potter plainly t<#3d him that
no gentleman would be guilty of such low
lifed work, whereupon Pryor wanted to know
whether he would stand by what he said?
Immediately thereafter, the valiant Virgin
ran sent a challenge to Mr. Potter, knowing
full well at the time that the laws of Wis
consin would disfranchise that gentleman
lor accepting such challenge, while Virginia
in effect recognizes no law against dueling.
He however waked up the wrong passen
ger, as the following proceedings will
show.
It is understood that after Mr. Potter re
plied to Mr. Pryor's first note, that he
would receive any message that might he
sent to him in the District, Mr. Pryor ask
ed trim it he would aceept a challenge, to
which Mr. Potter replied that he would
inform him whenever a challenge reached
him. Mj. Pryor then sent him a challenge,
to which Mr. Potter replied," referring him
to Col. Lander to make the necessary ar
rangements. The terms proposed by Col.
Lander to T. P. Chrisman were that Mr.
Potter, though disclaiming allegiance t >
the code, would fight Mr. Pryor in any
place, in doors or out, in the District, with
Lowie knives. This was declined on the
ground that the weapons were barbarous,
and not usual among gentlemen. To this
Col. Lander replied that Mr. Potter detest
ed the whole system of dueling as barbar
ous and inhuman, but being called to ac
,7
count for the exercise of free speech on
the floor of the House, he consented, not
accustomed to the usual weapons of
• the duelist, to meet him in any way that
■ would place them on equal terms, and to
name the time, place, and weapons; but as
the weapons named by Mr. Potter, through
1 Col. Lander, were objected to, Col. Lander, 1
without 31 r Potter's knowledge, tendered
himself to Mr. Pryor without restriction,
which was also declined by Mr. Pryor, on
the ground that he had no quarrel with Col. j
j Lauder.
The chivalrous Pryor ended this matter '
by publishing an acceptance of Mr Potter s
terms which wa3 not delivered! We think
after this exhibition of his prowess, and t
the fact that 3lr. NeLon of Tennessee a j
few months ago gave him more cause for a
challenge than Mr. Potter had, and from
which he backed out, lie had better retire
from the post of chief bully. j
Among the surprising things in all these ;
transactions, is, that although there are
severe laws in the District against sending,
carrying, or receiving a challenge, no ef
fort is made by the officers to put a stop to ;
it. If principals and seconds were dealt
with according to law, they would all soon
be in the penitentiary.
The Covode Investigating Committee.
George Plitt, late Cleric of the Circuit
Court of the Ciiited States at Philadel- I
pliia, in his examination before the Com
mittee. said that as Treasurer of the Peun-
I
sylvania Ftate Central Committee of the !
Democratic party in 1850, he disbursed ;
seventy thousand dollars. He was very I
oblivious as to most of the items of expen
diture, having burnt his books of account !
as soon as he knew that his old friend
James Buchanan was certainly elected.—
His testimony was, however, very rich, and
makes sad work with the Administration. !
James Vandyke, of Philadelphia, tes
tified that he was still United State.s Dis
trict Attorney for the Eastern district of
Pennsylvania, not having had official noti
fication of his removal, although he under
stood that the name of his successor had
been nominated to the Senate. He be
lieved the cause of his removal was his re
fusal to combine with other Federal office
holders in Philadelphia in their manage
ment of inter-party politics, although the
President put it upon other grounds—to
wit, that the personal relations between
the Collector and the District Attorney
must be preserved in order that the public
duties should be properly conducted. Mr.
Vandyke stated that all the public duties,
between the different officials and himself,
had necessarily to be conducted by corres
pondence, since, unless it was so conduct
ed, the successors in office could not know
the condition of any cause pending; and
that his political differences with the col
lector never interfered, either on his part
or on the part of the collector, with the
proper discharge of official duties.
Mr. Covode enquired whether the witness
knew of any combinations among the Fed
eral office-holders in the State of Pennsyl
vania, to control party politics, and wheth
er any removals had taken place because
collector's subo dinates would not obey the
dictation of the collector'!
Mr. Vandyke replied that he had always
considered that there was a thorough com
bination among Mr. Buchanan's office-hold
ers in Philadelphia, with a few exceptions,
for the purpose of controlling inside party
politics in that city, and that many per
sons have been removed because thev
would not obey the dictation of the collec
tor.
Potter and Tryor have been arrested and
given security to keep the peace.
i here are 105 soldiers of the Revolution
still living. The youngest of them 19 89
years old.

ihe Clearfield Journal says that on the
fifth inst., Mr. Robert A. Hull, of Unionville,
captured a young bear near the plank road,
about a mile and a half north of Julian Fur
nace. He " bagged'' the " varmint" and car
ried it home alive.
A man named Samuel P. Smith, for a long
time a resident of Tyrone, was arrested in
that place, a few days ago on a Warrant charg
ing him with forgery. He was taken to Mil
ton in custody of the officer.
On the sth inst., a't Lumber City, in Clear,

ecber'ry shot another called " devil" John
lhompeon, killing him instantly. Hocken
berry was arrested and lodged in jail, to
await his trial. So say tho Journal.
Proceeding's of Congress.
The bill admitting Kansas into the L n
ion passed the House of Representatives
on Wednesday of last week by a vote of
134 yeas to 73 nays—more than two-tlisrds
of the patent democrats having voted
against it. The bill, as passed, declares
the State of Kansas admitted into the
Union under the Wyandotte Constitution,
on an equal footing with the original States,
in all respects whatever. The boundaries
begin at that point on the western boun
dary of the Missouri where the 37th parallel
! of north latitude crosses the same ; thence
west on the said parallel to the 25th merid
ian of longitude west of Washington;
thence north on that meridian to the 40th
parallel of latitude; thence cast on the
said parallel to the western boundary of
: Missouri; thcncc south with the western
boundary of that State to the place of be
ginning: Provided, That nothing con
tained in the Constitution of Kansas shall
be so construed as to impair the rights ot
person or property now pertaining to the
Indians in the Territory, according to the
exist ng treaties, nor shall their Territory
be included with the State until the said
tribe shall signify their assent thereto.
Until the next general apportionment, the
State of Kansas shall be entitled to one
member of the House of Representatives.
The remainder of the bill contains the j
usual land provisions and conditions.
Among those who perished in the Hungar
ian was the Rev. James Stuart, a Young di
vine of great ability and promise, whose un- ;
timely demise is much lamented. He was j
the son of Mr. Lewis Stuart, commission
merchant in Glasgow.
The office holders convention, alias demo
cratic, will meet at Charleston next week.
Among the politicians from this State who
will figure as delegates, are Arnold Plurn
iner, Isreal Painter. Gen. John Ross, and a
number of others who understand canal nav
igation.
A man named Wood, for using some lan
guage relative to the Johr. Brown foray, re- !
ceived thirty n:ne lashes, in the public square
of Abbey ville, S. C., a few days ago, under le !

the cars.
Chas. Morton, a tavern keeper, deliberate
ly shot \\ m. Riley, a young man, in Alexan
dria, Kentucky, on Monday. The act was
without palliation, and aroused great indig
nation among Riley's friends, who spoke of
summary vengeance.
We learn from the Cumberland (Md.) pa
1 pers that the recent flood in that section was
the greatest that has been known since the
year 1810. From the Pittsburg, I'a., papers
we learn that the damage done there, and in
i Allegheny city and environs, surpasses any
thing ever known. The Dispatch says it is
estimated, there has fallen four inches of wa
j ter ; an amount which has not been equalled,
I for the same time, for many years.
Died.
On the Ist inst., after a short but severe ill
ness, PAULINA E. daughter of Elias and
■ Sarah Ilummel, aged 8 years and 11 days.
The funeral took place on the Tuesday follow
j ing, when a large number of people with her
. schoolmates and teacher followed her remains
! to the Cemetery.
God in His boundless lovo looked down
Upon His garden fair.
Ar.d His omniscient eye beheld
A bud of promise rare;
Alas ! the storms of life, he said,
Will nip this hud, I see.
But in the eden of my love,
The flower shall bloom for me.
Far in the shining courts above,
A lovely flower is seen.
And in arisen Saviour's love
'Twill ever bloom, I ween.
Then weep not. though thy darling child,
Has left this house of clay,
She has but gone at God's command,
To live in endless day:
O. weep not parents for your child,
For peaceful is her rest.
Her spirit now in sweetest bliss,
Sleeps calm in Jesus breast.
At New Oxford, Adams county, Pa., on
i Thursday morning, April sth, Mrs. ELIZA
| BETH, wife of John Barnitz, aged GO years,
! 1 month and 8 days.
The death of this estimable lady has left a
void in the community in which she so long
resided not easily replaced. The residences
j of the poor and needy, the wayfarer bv the
roadside, will sadly miss the kindly heart
that was ever ready to minister to their wants,
! both temporal and spiritual, for go long as
she was able to be about no call of this kind
i was ever made in vain. Although long suf
fering with rheumatic pains, and towards the
j close of her eventful life sadly afflicted, her
thoughts centered altogether in that future
which " eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard,
| neither hath it entered into the heart of man
to conceive of the glory which is in reserva
tion for those who love God." Well hath it
been said " there is but a breath of air and a
beat of the heart, betwixt this world and the
! next. When the good and lovely die, then
I the memory of their deeds like the moon
beams on the stormy sea, lights up our dark-
I ened hearts and lends to the surrounding
gloom a beauty so sad, so sweet, that we
would not, if we could, dispel the darkness
that environs it." So has it been with the
deceased, who leaves the partner of her life
and many warm and devoted friends, for a
while longer to sojourn in this temporary abi
ding place, but who, while life remains, will
: not cease to remember her as one whose lamp
was trimmed with oil. Be it their aim to em
ulate her virtues and Christian resignation,
so that when their eyes shall close to scenes
of earth, and the body yield the spirit to
Adonai's judgement and mercy, we all may
be ready with the " Apaen" that ended her
'mortal career.
! ,Tkou art gone to the grave, but we will not deplore
thee,
Though sorrows and darkness encompass the tomb}
| The Savior has passed through its portals before thee,
And the lamp of his love is thy guide through the
gloom.
Thou art gone to the grave, we no longer behold
thee.
Nor tread the rough paths of the world by thy side;
But the wide arms of mercy are spread to enfold thee,
i And sinners may hope since the Savior hath died.

UgL-The heavy rains last week caused a
considerable flood in the Juniata, the wa
ter having continued to rise until Thursday
morning last, at which time it had reached
some of the back buildings on Elizabeth
street, causing a general removal of furni
ture, &c. from the lower stories. It then
began to fall, though very slowly. Large
quantities of drift wood, rails, and timber
passed down, enabling quite a number to
secure their summer wood.
On .Saturday we had a regular snow
storm, followed by a cold night, ice having
formed in various localities to the thick
ness of half an inch. On Sunday after
noon it was again warm and pleasant—on
Monday a cold rain fell during a great
part of the day—on Tuesday and Wednes
day it was again cool, but otherwise pleas

[For the Gazette.]
Mr. Editor—Permit me through the col
umns of your paper to give an account of an
Exhibition held on Tuesday evening, (April
3d,) at school No. 5, Menno township, known
as Weilec's Schoolhouse taught by Mr. M. J.
Davis. The school room was decorated in a
handsome and tasty manner; wreaths, flow
ers, and festoons were strung around in all
directions, which in the glare of the numer
ous lights presented a picturesque and beau
tiful spectacle. The motto "Excelsior" was
neatly and tastefully arranged in the back
ground, and underneath it a wreath of roses,
standing out in bold relief to green spruce
which formed the motto. The exercises were
everything that could be desired, and in fact
rivalled efforts of some of our Academies and
Seminaries. The salutatory and valedictory
were both original, a feature not often seen
in our common school exhibitions. The es
says, of which there were seven or eight, were
quite creditable to their authors, though, ow
ing to the immense crowd that filled thebuil
ding, they were at times, indistinctly heard.
With the dialogues, we were particularly
pleased. The performers acquitted themselves
in a Lighly creditable manner, at times pro
voking peals of laughter from the auditors.
One dialogue, " Kill or Cure/' we think par
tieularly deserves notice, from the very com
ical and natural manner in which the per
formers sustained their several parts. Of mu
sic there was both vocal and instrumental.
The singing was delightful and rendered in
an effective manner. This was the third an
nual exhibition held in the same place, and
under the superintendence of the same teach
er, who now quits the profession for that of
medicine. He leaves behind him many warm
friends, both among pupils and parents.
