An administration notice.
Th State of the Country.
We do not give the sensation dispatches
and idle speculative? of letter writers, for i
the simple reason that what is published
one
Charleston, fortifications continue to be erec
ted around Fort Sumter, and the miserable
policy adopted by Buchanan of suffering a
State to coerce the General Government in
clear violation of the Constitution, will
leave no alternative with Mr. Lincoln but ;
either fighting his way to that fort or caus
ing its evacuation. At Pensacola the in
dications are that the disunion traitors who j
find o much favor and sympathy with
northern democrats, will soon have Fort
Pickens in the same condition unless al
ready re-intorced. It will be remembered
that among the acts of Buchanan, after he
had been torn from the traitor scoundrels
who had governed him, was the dispatch
ing of troops to that fort, but the orders
to land them were, with characteristic
weakness and imbecility, counterman
ded. Gov. Houston, of Texas, refuses to
acknowledge the State Convention, and op- !
poses Texas joining the Southern Confed- [
eracy. The Convention on the other hand i
claims sovereign powers, and is pre ceding j
to consummate the union of the State with
the Confederacy. Gov. Houston is stated !
to be raising troops on his own account.
In Virginia, Missouri, and indeed all the
Border States, President Lincoln's Inaug
ural Address Las created a strong union
feeling, but no stone is left unturned bv
the unhung scoundrels who sympathise
witli treason and traitors to throw those
States into commotion. These reckless
men will yet, we fear, inaugurate civil war i
and anarchy to accomplish their ends.
It would be better for all, if the masses '
Of the north would closely watch the dem- ! ,
ocratic leaders who are blustering about
Southern rights and defending treason of
the blackest dye. If some northern States
have personal liberty bills which are un- '
constitutional, the supreme Court is the i '
proper tribunal to decide them so; and
therefore to justify open and undisguised
treason with threats of war in the South
OH that account, is to aid and abet treason. !
lo condemn the general government for
endeavoring to protect the nation's proper- j
ty, whether it consists of forts, arsenals,
mints, money, or stores of any kind,
whether attempted to be seized bysnu.ll or 1
large parties of armed men, actin" ; ■> •
orders from persona without governmeni
authority, is inviting anarchy :nd robbery
—for, if the Governor of Pennsylvania
would have the right of seizing the Phila- j
delphia mint and its contents, the city of
Philadelphia might claim the same right
and exercise it. Similar comparisons i
might be made to an indefinite extent, but
are unnecessary. In the meantime we
hope our readers will make a note of such j
democratic speeches as were delivered here ; 1
lately, as well as of sentiments uttered in
various parts of the county by men who I ;
may some day appear before the public as
office seekers.
1
no unkind feelings to the oth
er applicants, we may express our gratifica- :
tion at the appointment of George Berg- ! 1
ner, editor of the Telegraph as Postmaster
at Harrisburg, and John J. Cochran of the
Union as Postmaster at Lancaster. Both
are old stamp whig? wfoe battled for the
right during the past twenty-five years,
while hundreds of the present wouM-be
. leaders aou dictators were atnoti" our m- 't
bitter opponents.

Southern Extracts.
T A VIRGINIAN'S OPINION or CEV. SCOTT.
; Since John M. Daniel returned to the edi
torial chair of the Richmond Examiner, that
, meteoric sheet has barned blue with vituper
ation. The latest diatribe is aimed at Gen.
Scott:
" The infamy of this man constitutes no
small portion of the crushing load of shame
under which Virginia is now struggling.—
She gave birth to this unnatural monster.
She has heaped honors and rewards upon this
war mandarin of the Abolitionists. That
Scctt was born in Virginia is a misfortune
which cannot be remedied ; but there are
means by which the State may brand him
with the ruarks of her indignant scorn. The
treason of Arnold swallowed up and effaced
all recollection of his lung deeds of valor and ,
Fiatrirtism, and his name was blotted from tbe
ist of our Revolutionary Generals. The Leg
islature of Virginia should expunge from
their journals every resolution expressive of
1 Virginia's confidence, respect, and adroira- i
tion of this man. We should offer to pay him
a pecuniary consideration fifty times their
value, if necessary, for the medals and swords ,
which we gave him when he was esteemed a
worthy and grateful son of the Old Dominion,
! and the now dishonored name of Scott should
no longer be borne by one of our counties." 1
A TUREAT.
The Charleston Courier warns President
Lincoln and General Scott. It believes "that ■
Washinton city, and some places not very
far from it, and in the Middle States, are in .
more danger now, than at the time of the mil
i itary inauguration."
OTHER FORTS TAKEN.
The Galvestou News, of the oth instant, .
says: "From an arrival to day we learn that j
Fort Washita and Fort Arbuckle, just beyond i
our northern frontier, have been taken posses
sion of by two hundred Tex an s assisted by
friendly Indians."
A COMPLIMENT TO SCOTT.
The Florida Sentinel, published at Talla- ;
hassee, thus compliments Gen. Scott:
" Our indignation, contempt, and abhor
rence of this plebeian (Lincoln)
are Q&ly equalled by what we feel for his
friend and adviser, the traitor to the home of
his birth, ' 'lie jackass in politics, and Jupi
' ter in vanity,' Lieutenant General Winfield
Scott. If there be not 'some chosen corse,
some bidden thunder in the store of heaven,'
to blast this wretch who causes his country's
ruin, the curves of unborn millions will damp
him to the lowest depth of human degrada
tion."
5 - E, ''JN BROW SLOW ON LINCOLN'S INAUCCARL. ,
Parson Brownlow, of the Knoxville W'hig, ,
fully endorses Lincoln's inaugural. He says:
We endorse the entire address, as one of
the best papers of the kind we have ever seen,
and we commend it for its temperance and i
conservatism. .It is peace uving and con
servative in its recommendations and emi 1
nently firm in its nationality of sentiment.—
It is, out and out, a Union address, worthy of i
tiie approbation of every Union and conser- 1
vative man South, as weli as North. Had it I
been delivered by Jackson. Polk, or Breckin
ridge, even the Cotton States would have de- 1 '
clared it to be the height of political perfec
tion. We shall have no war unless it be forc
ed upen vh? country by the reckless conduct
of the South.
MODEST DEMAND.
The Oxford, Miss. Intelligencer demands '
as a condition from Tennessee, before she i 1
will be allowed to unite with the Southern
Confederacy, that she shall produce the scalps (
of Senator Johnson and Representative Eth
ridge, as evidences of her sincerity. Tennes
see is not disposed to join the rebels ou any 1
such conditions.
EXECUTION OF A TRAITOR AT FORT SUMTER.
The Charleston correspondent of the New ,
York Tribune tells this singular story:
"While speaking of Major Anderson's loyalty
to his country, and to his own honor, I can
not do better than give you an illustration of
it, and of his promptitude in dealing with trai- 1
tors. There is an Irish ruffian who loafs 1
upon the wharves, who has an ironical tribute
to his extreme ugliness, being dubbed 'Hand- •
t re "harlev.' This vagabond is to Charles j ■
ton w Billy Mulligan was to New York—
as not - JUS a scamp as ever went unhung.
The her-in-law of Charlie was a soldier j
attached to the garrison of Fort Sumter, and
WAS often sent by Major Anderson, with
ers, forjprovisions. These two villians, oroin- '
ers in 'crime' as well as in 'law,' had, it seems
been plotting treason >n connection with
their betters against the Goverment of the Uni- j
ted States. One of their plans was to smuggle !
in files for the purpose of spiking the guns of
i ort Sumter* llow they expected to accom
plish this rascality is another question; but
certain it is that files were introduced into the
fortress, concealed in loaves of bread. The j
files and the traitor were both discoverd. A
messenger was despatched to Cbarlston for a
priest. The cause assigned for sending for !
him was the premature confinement and con
sequent danger, of a soldier's wife. The real
need for him was toshrive a dastardly wretch '
for the next world, who was utterly unfit to
live in this. The brother-in-law of' Handsome
Charlie' was shot; a fitting doom for a traitor." i
TREASON IN MISSOURI.
The Missouri Legislature has appointed a
committee to invesrig the charge that a se
cret movement is afoot j overthrow the con
vention, and take'h- State out of the Union.
There is ve.y . f <le dowbt that underground
lodges have been organized in many parts of 1
the State, with the view of carrying the
Southern revolution to our utmost borders.
Some districts are honey-combed with these
pestilential secret societies, whose name, in
day time is Minute Men.
Missouri Legislature on Monday
elected Wai'Jo 11. Johnson United States Sen
ator for the ensuing six years, vice Senator ,
Green, of Lecompton memory. The support :
ers of that infamous measure are rapidly be
ing removed from the roll of Senators.
A CHANCE FOR BARGAINS.—B. K Firo
ved, agt., intending to relinquish business
at his present stand, offers for sale AT COST,
from now until the first day of April next,
his entire stock of Dry Goods, &c. This
will afford :in opportunity fur all desiring :
to lay in z supply for family use or for :
dress, not often met with. As the fact : J
will soon spread far and wide, ladies and 1
gentlemen are invited to call and secure 1
undoubted bargains. Those iudebted to
.the store will of course call and make set
tlement at an early day, deeming thie likit ]
that money is needed sufficient. s
LiOCAJL. AFFAIRS.
TEMPERANCE MEETING. —An interest- j
ing meetiug was beld in the Town Halloa
Monday evening, John C. Sigler in the ,
chair, during which remarks were made by
Rev. Dr. Woods, C. Stratford, M. J. Smith, j
Jos. Milliken. and John Evans. A num- :
ber addicted to intemperate habits again
signed the pledge, and it is to be hoped
will abide by it. Another meeting will
be held on Monday evening next, at which
the public are invited to attend.
i People who visit Nat Kennedy s
store under the Odd Fellows Ilall, gener- j
j ally express their surprise at the quantity
and variety of goods which loom up on all .
sides. Ask for dry goods, and they appear
; in piles—ask for groceries, and they arc
there in stacks—ask for almost anything
■ from a pin to an anchor or a hogshead, and !
you will see it, and all cheap at that, and j
no mistake. j

®§yThe Altoona Tribune of last week
has the following notice of a member of
the Methodist ministry formerly of this
county:
REV. SAMUEL CREIUHTO.Y.—This gentleman,
wbo, for the past iwo years has had charge of
the Methodist congregation of this place, de
livered bis farewell address before the Sab-
Is* School and a large audience, on Sunday
afternoon last, and on Tuesday morning left
for Conference, which met at Chambersburg
yesterday. According to the economy of the
Methodist Church, he cannot be returned to
this charge, the itinerant system requiring a
change every two years at most. His labors
here have been crowned with success, and he
leaves the ehurch in the midst of a spirited
revival. He takes with him the best wishes
of his coc?rpo'fltion and acquaintances for his
future wcLare. As an evidence of the sub
stantial manner in which he was appreciated,
we may ~dd that a few day 9 previous to his
departure a party of young persons called
upon him and presented him a purse con
taining $25. In times like these, such evi
dences of good will Bpeak loudor than words.
gefThomas E. Shull has removed o
Patterson and taken charge of the Patter
son House.
TAVERN LICENSES. —At April term the
question of licensing public houses— many
of them merely for the sake of selling
liquor —will again come before the Court.
e presume there is not a man or woman
living who, when seeing the exhibitions of
drunkenness among old and young so of
ten witnessed on our streets of late, is not
conscious there is a radical wrong and evil
in putting so many places of temptation
before the unfortunate victims who are
hurrying themselves towards the embraces
of that most hideous of all demons, mania
a pot a. Surely there is a discretion ves
ted in the court, and surely there ought to
be firmness enough on the part of our lead
ing citizens to remonstrate against licen
sing houses which by no perversion of lan
guage can be construed as being " neces
sary to accommodate the public and enter
tain strangers and travelers." Besides, no
house which sells a glass of liquor to a hab
itual drunkard, ought to be licensed.
JUSTICES OF TIIE PEACE. —Those who
were elected this spring to this position
throughout the county, are reminded that
they are required to file written notice to
that effect in the Prothonotary's office with
in thirty days after the election, otherwise
no return can be made of their election to
Ilarrisburg, and no commissions will be is
sued for them.
FlSH.— Weber's market car has been
supplying our citizens with fine shad, pike, j
cat-fish, Ac., generally arriving here on \
Thursday morning. The last lot were con- i
siderably cheaper than the previous ones, '
and unless the weather continues too cold .
for fishing in the Chesapeake and Dela- j
ware tributaries, wili be still further re- ;
duced in price.
- J
Ilimmelwright. who some tin..
ago advertised his business in the Gazette,
has been graining the front of Parker's
new establishment, where a specimen of
his work can thus be examined.
HOGS.— As the frost is coming out of
the ground, it would undoubtedly be good
policy to keep hogs from the streets and
alleys. During the recent fine weather we
noticed a number of places where the i
ground had been rooted up, and in some
cases stones loosened in the gutters, which
is a matter of jursc results in serious in
jury to the streets. Few towns of anv j
note now permit this nuisance to exist at [
any time of year, and we think it would
be difficult to advance a single argument
why it should be here, as it is generally ac- :
knowlcdged that swine penned up, with
good stable room, are better off than when
worried on the streets hv dogs or r db<ect to !
injury from wagons, horses, Ac.
EMIGRATION MEETING.—A large meeting of
the colored citizens of Lewistown was held
in the colored public school house-cn Mon
day evening, 18th inst., to take into consider j
ation the sending of a delegate to the repub I
lie of Ilay ti, to select a situation that may suit
the Mifflin county colony in that republic.
After singing and prayer, the Rev. William
Grimes was call to the chair, and the Right
Rev. Bishop Paine was called upon to give
his views upon the subject of emigration.—
He rose and stated briefly that the time has ■
arrived when the colored man has become a ;
subject of legislation in this country, and that ' 1
his condition can be bettered in no place so I 1
well as in Hayti, and urged them in ihe strong I
est language to sobriety, industry and agri j
cultural pursuits. His lecture was received
with marked attention—after which the com- i
ruittee reported, and the society went into an
election for officers, with the following result: !
President—Samuel Baptist.
Vice President—James Sherman.
Secretary—ll. C. Molson.
Corresponding Secretary—X. Fields.
Treasurer—Samuel Moison.
Committee—W. M. Palmer, Charles Wil
liams, W. M. Butler, J. F. Thomas, J. L.
Griffith.
After the election, a resolution was offered !
that all the money paid into the hands of the
treasurer shall be deposited in the bank of
William Russell until such time as the so- j
ciety shall deem it proper to draw it.
John L. Griffith has offered his services to I
go to Hayti, examine the country, and if pos
sible find a location for the colony.
A letter will be published next week re- j
questiDg information i'ronr those of our white j
brethren who feel interested in our behalf in
carrying out this good work, and in what I
manner means can best be raised to defray 1
the expenses of the agent in going there, as i
the society is not yet able to provide for sucb i
an expedition.

T"'uetoncl Traitors. —lt is said that among
the Secessionists now in arms against the
National Government, are persons who are
on the pension rolls of the Republic. These
traitors deserve to receive their pay 'from the
public treasury regularly and promptly.

Dec. last. He leaves a family.
IguAn agent from Mississippi visited
' Springfield, Illinois, a few weeks ago for the
. purpose of soliciting corn for the suffering
I por of his State, and the home of Lincoln
contributed 1000 bushels. A southern pa
per considers this a humiliating position.
Democrat is very censorious of
; Michigan and its Senators for refusing to
' sanction the Peace Conference, but has noth
ing to say against the democratic gentlemen
' in Virginia and other States who occupy pre
, cisely the same position as Michigan.
BSL.The Secession Convention of Louisiana
has defeated an ordinance which proposed to
submit the new Constitution of the Southern
Confederacy to a Tote of the people. It was
' ; probably afraid that they might reject it. We
I hear a great deal in tiiese times of the whole
i Government being based solely upon the con
1 . sent of those under its jurisdiction ; tut this
action is a strange commentary on that doc
j trine.
