LOCAL AFFAIRS
The following are the resolutions
adopts by the Republican County Con
vention last week :
pjtnh fd, That believing Congress, as
t he legislative power of the Government,
t ,, he The only rightful body to designate
in what manner the States lately in re
ion shall be restored, we cord Tally en
dorse tiie proposed amendments to the
pon-titution as an effectual remedy
against future rebellions, a proper punish
ment for leading traitors, and a just and
equitable basis for representation in a
white man's government.
Jt> <r,hrd. That Andrew Curtin, the able
and efficient Governor who carried Penn
sylvania safely through the war, is en
title! to our thanks and gratitude.
frsohTii, That our thanks are due to
the Republican legislatures of the past
-;x years for their prompt and efficient
law- to meet great contingencies—for a
reduction of the State debt—and, at the
ciose of the war. for a repeal of the State
Tax—services which ought to satisfy all
taxpayers that a party whose acta speak
far louder than democratic professions
coupled with extravagance and eorrup-
tion. as in canal days of old, is worthy of
being supported and continued in power.
fi' xotvcd, That we commend the ticket
this day nominated to the people of Mif
flin county, from the character of the
men composing it as good citizens—from
the fact that they were in heart and soul
Union men through the war, who believ
ed a causeless rebellion ought to be put
down at any cost —and whose capacity to
fiii die several offices with credit is*un
doubted-a- deserving of support.
jjfsolvcd, That recognizing in Gen.
John W. Geary, the Union Republican
nominee for Governor, a true, tried and
brave soldier, to whom and his gallant
soldiers the gratitude of the people is due,
we confidently predict his election by an
overwhelming majority over one who was
neither a soldier nor a soldier's friend.
CONVENTION OF PATENTEES. —The old
democracy, with a sprinkling of the new
party, assembled in the Town Hall on
Monday afternoon, and after a laborious
session succeeded in nominating a part of
a ticket, to wit:
Associate Judges—Ephraim Banks,
Win. Ross.
Sheriff—Wm. T. McEwen.
Commissioner —John W. Kearns.
Ephraim, it will be seen, i§ again in
pursuit of his idol, office, and if he keeps
on in his descent we shall next expect to
hear of his nomination for Councilman,
High Constable, or Collector. The de
mocracy is however so hard run for can
didates that they have to take him. For
Sheriff Wm. T. McEwen stepped in and
laid all the old candidates on the shelf,
where they can chew the cud of democra
cy to their heart's content. But the most
extraordinary nominations were those of
Wm. Ross for Associate Judge and John
W. Kearns for Commissioner —two men
whose entire course was so outrageous in
denunciation of the Government, the war,
soldiers, and everything else not rebel,
that it was a great pity they did not live
south of the Potomac. Banks and Mc-
Ewen were both radical enough in all
conscience, especially the latter when he
resigned his commission in the army, but
Ross and Kearns are both representative
men of the New York Day Book and Se
linsgrove Times school; and for any sol
dier to touch them with a forty foot pole,
would be as great a sight as to see them
advocate the claims to office of an army
bummer or deserter.
Pursuant to the plan secretly adopted
for the gradual sale of the democracy, no
nomination for the legislature was made.
A. Reed, Esq. was named for Congress.
REV. J. B. REIMEXSXYDER. —This gen
tleman. pastor of the Lutheran Church
of this place, made the opening prayer
on Thursday last, in the Conglomerate
Convention of rebels, copperheads, north
ern sympathizers with treason, Johnson's
bread and butter brigade, self-styled dem
ocrats, and perhaps a dozen honest and
patriotic men, front which we learn that
God, instead of Andrew Johnson, as
most people had supposed, had "inaugu
rated"' that hungry band of pardon and
office seekers, and also tl iat we had a "noble
President" to whose "patriotic eflbrts to
vindicate the supremacy of the Constitu
tion," all the people ought to rally! Much
as we had seen of Mr. Riemensnyder and
close as we reside to him, we did not know
what his politics were, or indeed that he
had any at all; and we must confess few
things we have read in these times of
strange events surprised us as well as many
others, more than this fulsome adulation
of Andrew Johnson.

We learn from the Democrat that the

confirmed, Robert Campbell, esq., of
Union township, in this county, to be
Revenue Inspector, and also Whisky In

The pay of Revenue Inspector is 84 per

The switch to Glamorgan Iron Works,
which involved the construction of con
siderable trestling and abridgeover Kish
acoquillas creek, is in course of comple
tion. Simon Wittinrueyer built the
bridge, which appears to be a substantial
structure. The furnace continues to do
well, turning out from 76 to 78 tons per
week, a fair proportion of which is No. 1,
and commanding the highest market
price in Pittsburg.
A narrow escape from being poisoned
occurred in the family of Major McKin
ney at Reedsville last week by the acci
dental introduction of a small quantity of
arsenic into a cake, of which all, as well
as a visitor, partook, and were quite seri
ously affected. The poison had been used
for rats, and one of the boys placed what
was left inacupboard, and thence transfer
red into a IH)X where tartaric acid was
kept, for which it was used. All papers,
boxes, Ac., containing poison ought to le
labelled.

The accident occurred near Huntingdon.
A drover from Ohio, named George W.
Hower, was killed on Friday morning a
week, at the Thompsontown station, Ju
niata county, whilst punching some cat
tle that had laid down, when the Fast
Line east came along, killing him in
stantly.
On Tuesday of last week, John, aged
about 15 years, a son of John Balsbacli.
Esq., of Perrysville, Juniata county,
died in that place a few hours after
undergoing amputation of the leg. Some
five or six weeks ago, while very much
j overheated, he had gone into the river to
i bathe, a few days after which his leg be
came very much inflamed and commenced
to suppurate. All that medical skill could
do to save the limb proved unavailing,
and the only hope of saving life was in
amputation, which resulted as above.

the Republicans of Huntingdon county,
made at their convention on Tuesday of
last week:

Iteitf The cop papers, with their usual
tact, are publishing a paragraph which
they say is an extract from Gen. Geary's
speech at York, denouncing most of those
who were at theClvmer gathering at Har
risburg as •shysters, cowards, skulkers
and hospital bummers. No language was
used by Gen. Geary which could be con
strued into any such meaning, and the
whole thing was no doubt got up to offset
the attack on the railroad train headed
by one of Glossbrenner & Small's special
police.

PURIFY THE BLOOD.
If the blood be pure the body which is formed from
and by the blood cannot lie diseased. But if there
be in any part of the body any affection, such as a boii
or nicer, even a bruise, the blood circulating through
that part takes up impure matters from the local af
fection and carries it into the general system. This
is the cause often of sudden death to persons of full
habit afflicted with boils and ulcers, and who use no
medicine; the matter gets into the circulating sys
tem and chokes up the fine blood vessels which suj>-
ply the brain with vitality, and life ceases as if

The first volume of this work is now
ready for delivery- it will be completed
in three volumes, of over 600 pages each
printed on fine calendered paper, and
handsomely illustrated with nearly 2000
tine steel and wood Engravings, in the
highest style of the art, from designs by

quarters of officers: weapons and shii>s of

other gifts of gratitude; costumes of sol
diers, arms and accoutrements; prisons
and other buildings made memorable by
the war; foe-simHe# of important docu
am' autograph letters ; maps of bat
tle fields, sieges and plans of fortresses—
the whole illustrating every important
event in the late civil war. *
I he work, when finished, will le the
most correct, reliable, impartial and hand
somely got ten-up history of the war pub
lished. The three volumes will he issued
at a cost of it has leen written
since the conclusion of the tear, from both
Union and Confederate official documents,
anAprivat* journals of officer* of both ar
mies, not accessible to, nor used by previ
ous writers ; arranged in a clear and con
cise manner, with that impartial and
well-balanced judgment for which the
author is so well known. Mr. Lossing

direction of the War and Navy Depart
ments, Governors of States, and by the
late and present President, for visiting
camps, forts and fleets, while the war was
in progress and since the conclusion.
The work will contain biographical
sketches, in Cyclopedia form, of all the
prominent actors in the war, of both sexes,
and in every condition in life.

New York Herald.
We can assert with truth that it is the
first conscientiously written history of the
war that has been given to the world since
its close. It is neither one-sided as to its
facts nor as to itswnclusions.
We w irk Ti utes.
Mr. Lossing possesses some peculiar
qualifications for the preparation of a his
tory of the war. To untiring industry,
he unites a quick sense of that which po
sesses interest and attractiveness for the
multitude. His pen and pencil are alike
faithful and accurate in reproducing men
and the scenes in which they were ac
tors.
New York Tribune,
To any one who is familiar with Mr. ]
Lossing's oilier works, it is hardly neees- |
sary to say that the materials for thepres- |
ent one have been gathered and selected \
with eminent industry and good judg- j
ment, and put together with the skill of J
an accomplished writer. The book is a I
rich storehouse of historical facts, and |
moreover a very enticing volume to read, j
It is so different from all the other histo
ries of the war. that it cannot readily be
compared with them.
