' LANCASTER IS 1828,
Seffie of the Quaint and Severely Personal
Observations of Ann Royall.
TUB TitAVET.EH AND PAMPHLETEER.
A Brilliant nnit Brazen Weman, Who Visited
This City Fifty Yeara Age and Matte
Seme Interesting Nete of lit l'ee-
pte and Their Manner.
In the Lancaster Jeurnnt, of Friday, Octo.
ber3I, 1628, then edited by Jehn Reynolds,
who was the father of the late Qcnerals Jehn
F., James h, and Admiral Wm. Reynolds,
appears, Uttj following conspicuous editorial
notlce of a woman who was In thai Oatly day
raiurits throughout the country :
"We have Just been Informed that Mrs.
Royall, n lady who has wrltten an Intertntlng
novel called 'ThoTennossoean and several
volumes of travels through the United States
lias arrived In our city. We are unacquainted
With the object or her visit, but suppese It te
be for the purpose or soliciting patronage for
her various works. A fcuiale writer, we
should suppese, cannot fall or success among
the literary characters of our city for the leve
of literature and the spirit or gallantry com
bined, who can resist?"
In the Lancaster Ixtklliuknckii or Nev.
4, the same year, Uien owned aud pu'illshed
by the widow of Win. Dicksen, and edited
for her by Themas Feran, appeared the fol
lowing editorial paragraph :
"Jins. nevALL.
"This lady, whose reputation and literary
acquirements have been the theiue or se
many pens, has arrived in our city, and asks
the patrenage for her works which her in
dustry and talent se eminently merit. We
hope she will net be without support from
overy gallant son who admires her spirit and
her admirable tact for exhibiting the charac
ters of nieii and women from a single glance."
WHO ANN llOYALIj WAS.
Te the men and women of that generation
who had any general knowledge of public
affairs, -Ann Royall was no stranger; aud all
nf them In Lancaster who had such social,
professional or political proiuiuenceas te jus
tify the expectation or a visit from her must
have heard the announcement or her visit
here with mingled feelings of curiosity, in
dignation and alarm. Fer Ann vv.via tenor
In her day and generation.
Seme or our elder citizens, men and
women, have a distinct rbcoUeclioii of her
personality and her visit here. Hen. II. O.
Leng, of Lancaster; Cel. Sam'l Shech, or
Columbia; Mr. Henry Ruby, ei Chambors Chambers
burg, and some ladles ei' tills geed town re
member her, and all agree that she was a
lield, brassy woman, el icieus temiier, with
a quick tongue, ready pen, aud as unscrupu
lous In abuse of these who oll'eudcd her as
she was lavish In compliment or theso who
patronized her.
She was born somewhoro In Virginia, June
11, 1700, and in her childhood was kldnapped
by the Indians, who held her in captivity Ter
fifteen years. She married dipt, Royall, a
Revolutionary eMccr,aud lived In Alabama
with him. Rut she was venturesome, prone
te dabble in literature, fend of notoriety nnd
of sensation; and about 1820, or thereabouts,
set out en her travels evor tlie country, which
furnished materials ler her ".Skotches"
published in 1820, her novel "The Tonnos Tennos Tonnes
soean," (1627) her "Black Reek" (1823) in
which she remorselessly blackened the
reputation of theso whom she disliked,
her "Pennsylvania" (1829), "Further
-Travels" (1831), and "Lclters from Ala
bama." In 1833 she published the society
and political papers,Pa"J Pry and the Hunt
resit; and died In Washington October 1,
1851.
Frem all accounts and by the testimony or
her own writings, her performances, us she
traveled ever the ceuntiy gathering material
for her books, and at the same time canvass
ing for subscriptions te the work , was such'
as would net oe tolerated nowadays. Re
sides her personal screeds, she lampooned
the anti-Masens and followers of Clay in her
correspondence with Jacksen papers of that
day.
In August, 1832, when he was in Washing
ton city she made a fuariul onslaught upon
Jehn L. Reswell, editor of the Columbia
Up, ami urged an application or tar anil
feathers te his person. Reswell felt the thrust
very keenly and retorted bitterly.

Ann Royall's visit te Lancaster was made
In 1829, late in the fall, aud her account of it
is embodied in her velume en Pennsylvania,
of which row copies are new extaut. It be
gins with an ueceunt or her trip from Wash Wash
ten and her visits te Baltimore, Annapolis,
Newcastle, Wilmington, Philadelphia, Eas Eas
ten, Rethlchem, Nazareth, Mauch Chunk and
Reading. Everywhere her own story reveals
her obtruslve perhenallty, her impudeuce
and virulence, her vulgarity and Impecu Impecu
"nleslty, and horbhter animosity te nearly all
church people, except the Meravians,
and especially toward the Presbyterians,
whom she calls " Rlack-Ceats," "Blue
skins" aud "Graybacks" in turn. She
came this way with intense prejudices
against the " black " and boorish "Dutch"
whom she heard inhabited this region ; but
her prejudices began te be dissipatel soeu
after she entered the borders of the county,
and especially when around Lititz thore
burst upon her view the beauty or tlie ricli
and highly cultivated landscape.
A CWKAT CAMrAlUN.
At the outset or her article en Iamcaster
she praises its surroundings aud the regu
larity of Its plan : "The houses are low, ex
cepting a few In the centre of the city, and a
few scattering ones here and there." She
says:
"As 1 drove Inte the principal street, I was
no little amused at a large body of men
singing Jacksen's March, end dragging a
great hickory trce large enough ler u most
for a 71 gun filgate. I waved my handkor handker handkor
chier te a uniform company, and was
cheered down the street te the tavern. In
the evening soveral called te see and loam
who I was. We passed soveral of theso
trees en the way, with green boughs en the
top,as though it were growing.
"Thore are two principal stroeta in Lancas
ter which divorge from a large square In the
centre of the city; at the oxtremity of theso
streets, all of which ascend from the ccutre
square, wero te Iki seen, at once, four of
these lefty trees, doceratod with Hags and
boughs."
In the same Issue or the Journal, from
which has been quoted an account of the ad
vent of MadameAun, appears this notice of
tlie pole raisings In the town In that cam
laign ;
" Hickory peles w ere yesterday (Oct. 30,
1828), erected In the lour quarters ofeur city.
They ere surmounted with overgreen and
decorated with the Star Bnniiulcd Manner,
which new lleats en the breoze in honor or
the brave and suecessrul deronder of his
country."
ULKUTION DAY IN 1828.
This vigorous female historian remained m
Lancaster ever the olectlou day of that event
ful year, and she gives this vivid description
of the scenes during the day and the celebra
tion of the victory en election night ;
"As tlie hour for opening the polls was
drawing near, and the court house (Ibriuerly
the state liouse) was near my window, I
hastened te Mr. Parker's te witness the
sceue.
"A llltle ulter I sealed myself at the win

polls wnre epen. 'inore was out very low

They de uet go Inte the court house -te vete j

and slip In the ticket through a pane. But
never, of all elections I have witnessed, did
I poe ene conducted with less eclat! The
Syoters walked up one by ene, slew and

crowding no taking aside, as they de in the
Westeru states me whispering j no drinking;
be swearing (all was sllence and dollbcrate
decorum ; and this, I was told, Is the manner
In which elections are always conducted
throughout the state. It would be dilllcutt
te enslave Pennsylvania they are tee deter
mined, and value their safety tee high.
Every thing was as still as a Itmeral tilt the
election was evor, which was about sundown.
But then the rlty rang with acclamations
and hum for Jacksen, the hore of Orleans
A-. The band struck tip, (a very full ene)
and a large party marched through the
streets, proceded by the music.
"At length as I sat listening, through the
window, with the sash up, I saw several
large lights approaching, el a deep red. The
sight startled me no llltle several moving
llery machlnes, high In the alrt At llrst I
took it te be a supernatural appcarance ; in
short, I could net tell what te think el It
thore wero six moving llgures In all, of dif
ferent size. The music kept with it, and
they kept drawing near me they wero
transparencies I the first I evor saw, except
ing a small ene at a theatre At length they
came under my window 1 was about te run,
when I was told the natne and nature or the
phenomenon they began te turn around, as
if by magic I could see no txsrsen, as they
wero stuck en the cud of long poles the
machines shaded the persons wiiocurrled
them. They had soveral sentences. In large
letters, printed ; and the light within was no
bright, the llgures and llnej could be
distinguished with ease
"aencral Jacksen was visible, arrayed In
a rich suit his Hwurd, opaillets, Ac., shene
like the sun; Blnn's cellln handbills, Ac.
Ac.
"They paraded through the streets for ftome
hours, and then dispersed. Next day 1 was
told the drawing undwhole project was exe
cuted by n youth about lirteeu years et age.
"I was introduced te him in the ceurse of
the day, and he furnished me with tlie size
of the transparencies, as fellows : a large
transparency ;1 feet 0 Inches square, with a
large pyramid en the top Pennsylvania,
and 43,000 majority. The second transpar
ency was nearly lliree feet squaro;the oilier
two wero something less. Resides theso
thore wero small ones, merely as ornaments.
General Jacksen was represented In various
attitudes, sometlmos drawn In a triumphant
car, In u splendid dress; en another side, in
a cloud el glory; and again, at the head of
his army, and then eating acorns, and as a
stripling In the American army; Rlnns and
his cellln hand-bills, Ac.j Ac The drawing
was admirably done the naine or the young
artist was Julius A. Ktffcr he designcd anil
conjured up the whole or It. This was the
greatest displuy or beauty and Ingenuity I
ever expect U see Tims ended the election
or Lancaster I de net recollect the majority,
but it must have been considerable."
Mrs. Royall was right in her conjecturos
that the majority for Jacksen was "consid
erable." Lancaster city gave him 1,211 te
355 for Adams; and in the county the vete
steed 5,181 fur Jacksen te 3,710 for Adams.
Jacksen carried the state, as he did In each
of his thrce campaigns.

THE AMHAtr JtUVT.
Declaring That an Afghan InciirMen Made
the IttiMlun Adinnre a Neceully The
Nete of Preparation Hounding In
Kncland nud In India,
It is stated in Londen that the premised
orders te have the Russian advance stepticd,
which M. de (Iters, the Russian foreign min
ister, gave assurance he would send, were se
managed that they did net reach the head
quarters of Ucneral Komarell', Russian com
mander at the front, until after his attack
upon the Afghans.
A letter recelvcd from Meshed, whence it
was dated en the 7th of March, states that It
was at that time rumored that recently the
Afghans had sent a ferce out from Herat, and
troops In Zuillkar Pass and compelled them
te retreat from the Pass. This letter added
that the rout or the Russians en this occasion
was se complctethat forty of their seldiersand
two ofllcers were driven te seek rolugeon
the Persian slde of the llcirl Hud river. M.
Lessar, the Russian Afghan boundary com
missioner, at present in Londen, In an Inter
view published in the lill-ilall Gazette,
concerning tlie statements made m this
Meshed letter stated that he regarded the
news as of the greatest Importance, if It was
true. He added that tlie Mcshed letter, if re
liable, allbrdcd a complete explanation or
General Komureirs attack upon tlie Afghans
at Pcnjdcli.
M. Lessar, In further commenting en the
news from the Afghan frontier, said that
Ucneral Koiuareffs return te PuM-Khisti
after defeating the Afghans showed that the
Russians had no designs te occupy Penjdeh
during the negotiations with England. He
tollevcd that tlie dxplaualleu of M. de fliers
would be fully satisfactory te tlu English
government.
WAIt ritKTAIIAritlNH.
There Is great agitation in all the govern,
meut departments. It Is stated that 12,000
reinforcements will be at ouce sent te India.
The First army roseno will probably be
called out Immediately. Tlie Karl of Duf
ferin, at Rawal-Pimli, was Informed by tele
graph of what had occurred at Pcujdch. He
at once told Abdurrahman, the ameer of
Afghanistan, and the native Indian chiefs,
who are in attendance at the councils. The
uatlvochlefs unanimously recommended the
Immediate throwing of troops into Afghanis
tan. This recommendation has been placed
before the home government In Londen.
Later en Thursday the surmises of thogov thegov thogev
ernment in regard te the movements of Mr
Peter Lumsdcu were substantiated by the
receipt of a telegram from him at Outran.
This telegram was dated April 1, aud com
pleted the broken dispatch. It states olllci elllci
ally that tlie Russians attacked tlie Afghans
intrenched in their position at I'eiijdeu and
slaughtered 200 or the garrison. Seventy
thousand Rritlsh and India troops, new sta
tioned along or near the northern frontier,
may, it is thought, icach Herat in time te
prevent the capture of that Important point
by the Russians.
IN Till: COMMONS.
Mr. Gladstone, when the liouse of Cem
incus reassembled Thursday evening after
the Easter reccss, In answer te Interroga
tories said that en Saturday the cabinet had
considered Russia's reply te England's pro pre
Ihw.i1 te limit the zene el survey te the deba
table points, Russia's reply was iui agreement
te de this provided the zoue of Miirvey
.no marked out by England, was extended
.southward se as te include the l'arapainisHan
rauge of mountains. The government con
sidered that tlje reply did net advance tlie
question toward a conclusion aud was dissat
isfied wlthrthem. Within the past twenty
four hours, however, said the premier, a
subsequent communication had wen received
from Russia, uud this appeared, in the opin
ion of the government, te nlace the matter in
a mere hopeful position. Being asked what
the nature of this sulisequcnt communication
was, Mr, Oladstoue said that It would be Im
possible Jut present for the government te
make any further statement' concerning the
pending negotiations about tlie Afghan fron
tier in view of the grave occurrence Just re
ported. Ml!. OI.AIISIONK'S KTAIKMKNT.
Continuing, Mr. Gladstone said that it was
evident that the Russians had attacked the
Afghans. The A fgliaus had In this attack been
defeated alter making a gallant resistance.
It wit'i upparcnt, also, that tlie Russians, niter
tlie light, had returned te their former posi
tions, or at least te the left bankoftheKushk
river, which might be equivalent te such
u retirement. Tlie government had been
informed, the promler went en, that
the RuHsians had made everv endeavor te
Induce the Afghans te begin the light
ing. Russian troeishadoventwicoattoinptcd
te forcibly pass through the Afghan picket
lines. Alter ene or theso attempts had failed
te proveko an Afghan attack, Captain Yates
met a Russian chlofef stall' and talked te him
about the conduct or the Russian soldiers
being un evidcut violation or tlie Russian
agreement te net advance pending the out
come et the negotiations. The Russian eflicer
stated that he had no knowledge that any ar
rangement existed agalusta Russian advance.
Captain Yates referred te the elllcial dispatch
sent from Su Petersburg en Mrrch 17 te Lon Len Lon
eon, assuring England that orders would le
at en co sent te the Russian efllcersatthn front
directing them te forbid any advance and te
de all in their power te prevent provocation

clared he knew nothing whatoverot any such
