The Centenary of Methodism—An
.Interesting Occasion.— This is a year of
jubilee among the Methodists of this coun*
try. In the month of October, 1766,
first Methodist class, consisting of five per
sons, was organized in the city of New
York, and from that small beginning it has
flourished and progressed until it is now
one of the great powers among religious de
nominations. Methodists, of course, feel
jubilant, and all over the country are com
memorating their 100th anniversary.
Last evening there was a Centenary Fam
ily Gathering in the First M. E. Church, on
Duke street, and the occasion proved a very
joyous and interesting one to the large con
gregation present. The church was most
appropriately and handsomely decorated
for the occasion. From the centre ot the
ceiling an arch of evergreens was hung in
graceful folds, connecting with the galleries
at different points, and from the centre of
tins arch was suspended a large air basket
of flowers. Clear round the galleries in
largo letters of evergreen work were the
words “Centenary of American Metho
dism.” In loops from this evergreen work
wore suspended small baskets oi flowers.
In the recess of Uio pulpit there were a
number of mottoes in evergreen very ap
propriately and beautifully urrauged. We
give them in their order: “1700—1800;”
»'»christiunity in Earnest;” “100—100;”
“ The Hest of All is, God is with us.” The
letter “ C,” intended to represent the cen
tennial number; “Strawbridge, Embury ?
Heck.” Helow these mottoes was a fine
portrait of John Wesley, the founder of
Methodism, surrounded by a wreath. On
the walls under the galleries were four
crayon sketches, the work of Master Willie
burr, son of Mr. Elias Barr, bookseller,
No. OEast King, which reflected great credit
on one so young. They represented tile Old
John Street M. E. Church of New York,
the new and elegant Tremont Street M. E.
Church of Boston, Embury’s House in
New York, where the first Methodist ser
mon was preached, and the Old lligging
Loft in New York, where the first Metho
dist Class Meeting was held. The festoon
ing and decor..lions of the church were the
pivuiesl we huve ever seen. They were
done hy the younger members of the church,
under the personal supervision of the talent,
ed and esteemed pastor, Kev. C. 1. Tlioinp-
Al 7 o’clock the following clergymen look
seals upon the platform: Bishop Simpson
and Rev. Messrs. Thompson, Major and
Barr, of the Methodist, and Rosemniller
and Koitnonsnyder, of the Lutheran Church.
The services were opened with the singing
■of the anthem, “ Renee be within thy
walls,” hy a full choir, under the direc
tion of Mr. David Hartman, leader. Prof.
J'-seph Sleinhuusor, presided at the Me
i.eon. Thu hymn, “ Love for Zion,” was
Hu n sung, after which a prayerwas offered
-by l.i v. Mr. Rosemniller. Another hymn,
“Got. is in the Midst of Her,” was then
sung ov the choir, and bishop Simpson was
in trod need, and spoke for about three-quar
ters of an hour. He commenced by tracing
the rise and progress of American Metho
dism. From a small mid obscure beginning
iL had grown, he said, to lie the first church
in point of numbers and influence in the
country. The reason for the great success
of Methodism was that God had been with
.them. He then very eloquently and earn
estly pointed oht the duty of Methodists,
speaking oft heir past success and the bright
future opening up before them. lie con
cluded with a thrilling appeal to mako the
hundredth year of Methodism a great bene
ficial season, in a pecuniary sense, to the
different causes and objects the church lmd
in charge. The bishop was listened to very
attentively throughout.
The hymn, “ A Hundred Years Ago,” was
sung, and contribution cards were then
passed around the congregation for their
signatures and amounts. Whilst this was
progressing, warm coffee and cakes were
given to each one in the congregation. This
proved a pleasing fea'lure, and was what
Methodists call aGoncVal Love Foust. The
hymn, “ Great God of Israel, !o, to Thee,”
was sttug, and the result of liie contribu
tion was then announced. The amount re
alized was $1,130.
The services lasted untilabout 10} o'clock,
when the Doxology was sung, and the ben
ediction pronounced by*Rev. ( Mr. Roimen
snyder.
( H'H PHILADELPHIA VISITORS.- —Oil Tues
day the United Slutes lloso oi' Philadelphia
cirunmud by a number of their, fast friends
of the I'uion, visited a number of places in
und about the city, and were cordially re
ceived and handsomely treated everywhere
they went.
VISIT TO WHEATLAND.
At 3 o'clock p. ill., accompanied by
number of citizens of Lancaster, they pro
ceeded in a body to Wheatland, to pay their
respects to Lancaster's most distinguished
and most honored citizen. Arriving on the
grounds, they drew up in order around the
portico of the venerable ox-President’s
mansion, and when Mr. Buchanan made
his appearance, they greeted him with
hearty cheers. The character of his visitors
and the motive of llifir call having been
slated by Mr. J. M. Cooper, a contributing
member of the Union, Mr. Buchanan
thanked them for their friendly call, and
tendered them the hospitalities of his house-
Repeating their cheers several times over,
they then passed in, each taking Mr. B. by
the hand, and many of them expressing to
him the great respect they entertained for
;him. After an hour spent in partaking of
the refreshments set before them, and in
•conversing with Lhe ex-President, and ex
amining objects of interest in and around
the house, the visitors returned to the city,
much pleased with their trip to Wheatland.
THE FRIENDSHIP BANQUET.
Tho Banquet given to them on Tuesday by
the Friendship Engine Company, No. 2, in
one of the upper saloons of Fulton Hall,
was a recherche affair. It was gotten up by
Mr. W. C. F. Sheer, an old- member of the
Friendship, and reflected much credit on
his artistic skill and ability. Both com
panies inarched to the Hull, at nine
o’clock, accompanied by the Liberty Cor
net Band, which discoursed the sweet
est kind of music. After the gastronomic
qualities of tho entertainment were suf.
liciently discussed, speeches were made by
William it. Wilson, Esq., of the Friend
ship, t’hiel Engineer Lyle, of the Philadel
phia Fire Department, Mr. John L. Mc-
Ginnis, of the United States, and others.
Various toasts were drank, songs sang, and
a good time generally was had. The ban
quet was prolonged to a late hour, and
after it was over a number of our citizens
received the compliment of delightful sore
nudes.
The Lost Cause. —Mr. E. P. Smithers,
■of Philadelphia, Agent for Lhe Lost Cause,
a Southern HistoryoftheLute War, written
by ]•:. A. Pollard, Esq., editor of the Rich
mond Examiner during the war, is now in
ibis city, and in Lhe course of a few days
will canvass for subscribers to the work.
Mr. Pollard has a high reputation as a
writer, and doubtless he has succeeded in
making a very interesting and readable
book.
Drowned.— On Thursday afternoon, 25th
Inst., a colored man, named John llonry
Jonas, was drowned in the river at Colum
bia. He was at work on a flat, and was
pushing lhe boat with a pole when he made
a misstep, fell overboard, and sunk to rise
no more. His body was soon recovered,
und Deputy Coroner Cully held an inquest,
and Lhe lollowing verdict was render
ed: “That the deceased came to his death
.by accidental drowning.”
Peterson’s Detector. —We have re.
<j3ived Peterson’s Monthly Counterfeit De
tector,\tor the month of November. It con
tains a description of 18 new counterfeits,
which have made their appearance since
•October Ist, besides much other valuable
information, highly important to every
banker, merchant and citizen. Terms §1.50
.per annum, or single copies 15 cents, and
.can be obtained at any of the book stores in
.this city.
‘The Last One. —A few days ago we
inoticed the death of George Yeckly and
and his family, of Columbia, consisting of
hie wife and two children, saying also that
•the mother of Mrs. Y., who was in the same
bouse, was noj expected to live. Since that
she has departed this life. She was buried
on Wednesday afternoon.
Another to our
hymeuial record it will be seen that the
ranks of Junior Bachelordom are ** growing
small by degrees and beautifully less;”
Benedicts are becoming as numerous almost
as the fall of Autumn leaves. Cupid is aim
ing bis darts with fearful effect, but we trust
to be able to bear with Christian fortitude
and resignation the loss of those who are
growing faint and weary among our rapidly
decreasing number. Mr. Webb Michael,
an old and true friend, has “ unitedbis for
tune in th.e tenderest of ties ” to Miss Deb
bie F. Strine, aud we cannot help but think
and remark, however detrimental to the
interests and feelings of those who intend
traveling down the future years of life singly
and alone, that “our loss is his gain.” May
the pathway of the happy couple be strewn
with roses, and not a cloud appear in the
horizon of their matrimonial happiness so
auspiciously begun.
Important to Distillers. —A circular
concerning the connection of stills with
receiving cisterns has been issued by the
Acting Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
announcing that information had been
received at the Internal Revenue Office
that officers of Interual Revenue in various
parts of the country are permitting the
distillers to continue, under the new law,
the old practice of separating the low and
high wines, by allowing them to run into
separate open tubs placed near the outlet of
the still or worm. It is understood that the
almost universal custom ingrain distilleries
has been to place near the outlet of the
wornr two open tubs, into one ot which the
high wines are conveyed, and into the
other the low wines—the former connected
by pipes with the high wine cistern, and
the latter with the still or doubler.
is arrangement is not consistent with
the terms of the act of July 13, IBM. Section
34 (par. 123; of that act provides that all the
spirits distilled during each day, of twenty
four hours, shall be conveyed on that day
into one of the receiving cisterns prepared
for that purpose, and that such cistern shall
be connected with the outlet of the still by
suitable pipes or other apparatus, so con
structed as always to *be exposed to the view
of the inspector. Distillers must mall cases
connect the still or worm with the receiving
cistern by pipes or other apparatus, which
must be so constructed as to convey ibo
spirits directly to the cistern. Asitisneees
surv for the Interest of tho distiller to
prevent the low wines from running
the high-wine cistern, and as the
use of the open tubs for this purpose cannot
be allowed, it becomes necessary to adopt
some arrangement by which this can be
done. It is deemed entirely feasible to sep
arate the low from the high wines by the
mse of u glass vessel which shall-bo eon
nocled with and made a part of the pipes or
anparalus connecting the outlet of the still
with the receiving cistern. The precise
form of this apparatus for separating tho
low and high wines is not pi escribed, but
distillers are notified that some such ar
rangement must be adopted and put in use
by tho 13th day of November next. Any
distillery which, after that date, shall he
found without such apparatus, will be closed
up and proceeded against according to law.
Interesting Law Suit.— A suit of more
than ordinary interest was tried last week
in the Court of Common Pleas, of this
county. We refer to the case of M. G.
Wenger vs. Tho United States Telegraph
Company. Tho questions at issueinvolved
the rights and liabilities of Telegraph Com
panies, the law regulating these cases being
somewhat uncertain, inasmuch as there
were very few, if any, tried in this Slate,
and none, we believe, iu this county. Tho
main features of the ease were these: On
tho Kith day of October, 183-i, the plaintiff,
then a dealer in stocks, ordered through his
agent, Geo. K. lteed, of tho firm of Reed,
MeGruuu A. Co., Bankers of this city, the
purchase of 30 shares of northwestern and
3U shares of Prairie da Chien Rail road stock®
Mr. Reed immediately called at the business
office of the Company, then in North Queen
street, loft the despatch, paid for its trans
mission to the linn of Win. A: J. O'Briem
Bankers, 38 Wall street, New York, with
whom Reed, MoGrann A: Co.did theirbusi
ness. The latter, according to custom, du
plicated the order by letter, in which they
referred to the telegram sent. The letter
arrived in due course, on thefollowingday,
but the telegram never reached New York.
Mr. Potts, the operator here, testified that
upon inquiry ho could only trace it to Phil
adelphia. It appeared that the Messrs.
O'llrien did not act upon the letter, because
they supposed the order, t liad reference to
another transaction, and probably required
explanation.
During the several days consumed in the
effort to buy and to lind out where tho mis
take rested, stocks advanced in price. The
order, however, was filled on the 13th o*
October, in pursuance of another telegram,
sent through this or the other Company,
but aFan advance of about §462.50 more
than the stocks.coUld have been purchased
on the 10th,.to,recover which difference the
suit was brought. The court, Judge Hayes,
substantially charged the wry that the de
fendant was a “ Cominon'Ciirrior that as
such it was responsible in damages for tho
non-delivery in this case of the telegram
sent or ordered so; and that the measure Of
damages was ,the difference between what
tho stocks could have been bought on the
10th of October and what they cost on the
13th, when the purchase was made. The
jury found a verdict for plaintiff for $486.50
and costs. Win. K. Wilson and Geo. Bru
baker appeared for plaintiff, and David G
Eshleman and D. W. Patterson appeared
for defendant.
Five Valuable Farms for Salk.—We
would call tho especial attention of parties
desiring to purchase farms to the advertise
ment of Hugh McAleer, Esq., which appears
in another column. These farms are loca
ted near tho Maryland line, in Fulton
Couuty, Pennsylvania, within from one to
three miles of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
Road, and are all valuable and desirable
properties. They are well improved, Mr.
McAleer having spent large sums of money
them. They will be sold very cheap,
and we do not know a better chance for
persons who may desire to secure homes
for .themselves. Parties wishing to pur
chase will call on or address H. G. Smith,
Intelligencer Office, Lancaster Pennn., or
;ugh McAleer, Esq., Frederick, Marylaii'
Don’t be so foolish as to think the inven
tive genius of Yaukeedon has failed in one
direction at least i. e., to produce a fault
less “Cooking Stove !” Why the thing has
been done, tho Stove is already in operation
in hundreds of families, and to Messrs.
Stuart, Peterson ifc Co., the well-known
Stove Fouuders of Philadelphia, belongs
the credit of this achievement. The trade
and all interested parties should inspect the
merits of tho “ Barley Sheaf,” tho greatest
Stove wonder of the 19th century.
Evergreens for Winter.— A process
has been discovered by which a beautiful
show of evergreens may be obtained for the
parlor duringtlio winter. We give it for
the benefit of our lady readers, who are
inseparably associated in our mind with
flowers, and all the beautiful objects on
earth:
“If geranium branches, taken from lux
uriant and healthy trees, just before the
winter sets in, be cut as slip* and immersed
in soap water, they will, after drooping a
few days, shed their leaves, put forth fresh
ones, and continue in the linest vigor all
winter. By placing a number of bottles
thus filled in a flower basket, with moss to
conceal the bottles, a show of evergreen is
easily secured for the winter. All the differ
ent varieties of the plant being used, the
various shapes and color of the leaves blend
into a beautiful effect. They require no
fresh water.”
The plan is simple, easily put into prac
tice, and is said to be successful.
Lancaster Horse Market, Monday,
October 29th, 1866.— Owing to the depres
sing effect upon all kinds of trade and busi
ness daring the late exciting political
campaign, we have neglected for some time
past to furnish our usual weekly report of
the Horse Market. Tho excitement having
subsided—we ure again prepared to give
our regular report each week, and we there
fore commence with the week ending yes
terday :
Trout's, —The arrivals were 46 head of
well selected stock, and the sales 16 headi
leaving 30 head yet on hand.
Copeland & Cline's.— The arrivals were 50
head of choice young horses, and the sales
and shipments to. other markets 43 head>
i leaving but 7 head on hand.
La.ncasteria.ns and 'theib’Farms in
Wisconsin, —We make the following ex
tract from a letter dated Wisconsin,
October 17®, 1866, and .published in the
Chicago Republican of th© 22d instant:
“ In order to fully appreciate the beauty
of the scenery about this place, one should
actually Bee it as I have. While there are
no special points of peculiar interest, the
whole, for miles in either direction, Is most
grand and charming. If you, Messrs. Ed
itors will leave your sanctum, and go with
me to the Northwest three or four miles,
to the Bummit of an elevation on the farm
of Mr. S. H. Slaymaker, when the west is
aglow with a mellow sunset; the trees, as
at this season of the year, tinted with van
gated hue 9, and ranges of cloud-mountains
resting on the horizon, I will show you a
scene not surpassed even in Switzerland. I
•will show you land and sky and groves
glowing for miles and miles in wreathing
vapors of loveliest tint and golden sun
floods—a vast expanse of rolling prairie
and purple and yellow groves. In ttfris sec
tion is a settlement of wealthy farmers,
mainly from the famous county of Lancas
ter, Pa. Here are the fine residences and
highly cultivated farms of John Reigart, A.
E. Reigart, James H. Reigart, S. H. Slay
maker, H. H. McLenegan, and others.
They have all the appointments of first
class farmers ; large and convenient barns,
fine residences, and all else that contributes
to comfort and beauty. You will also find
here choice full-blooded stock, in which
they take special pride.”
The Messrs. Reigart alluded to fn the
above extract are the sons, and Messrs.
Slaymaker and McLenegan the sons-in
law, of E. C. Reigart, Esq., of this city.
They are well and favorably known to
many of our citizens, and their many
friends in Lancaster, where they formerly
resided, will bo pleased to learn ,that they
have located their new’ homes in the garden
of Wisconsin, where they seem to be pros
pering finely in their business.
Coffee Crushed vs. Ground. —The
following is from the Annual oj Scientific
Discovery:
It is not generally knowm that coffee that
has been beaten is better than that which
has been ground. Such, however, is the
fact, and in this brief article on the subject,
Savarian gives what he considers the rea
son for the difference. As he remarks, a
mere decoction of green coffee is a most iu
sipid drink, but carbonizatiou develops the
ar.oma, and an oil which is the peculiarity
of th© coffee we drink. He agrees with
other writers that the Turks excel in this.
They employ no mills, but beat tho berry
with wooden pestles in mortars.
When Jong used, these pestles become
precious and bring great prices. He deter
mined, by actual experiment, which of the
two methods was the best. He burned care
fully a pound of good Mochu, and separated
it into two equal portions. The one was
passed through the mill, the other was
beaten after the Turkisli fashion in a mor
tar. He made coffee of each. Taking equal
weights of each, and pouring on an equal
weight of boiling water, he treated them
both precisely alike. He tasted the coffee
himseif, and causedother competent judges
to do so. The unanimous opinion was, that
coffee beaten in mortar wus far better than
that ground in a mill.
How to Take Care of a Piano.—lt
should be remembered that the piano forte
is susceptible of the change of temperature,
and when tuned iu one temperature will
be out of tune in another. Good and v’ell
made piano fortes will stand in tune iftliey
are tuned at proper periods. Many people,
as they wish to avoid expense, will let
their instruments remain long out of tune,
which is a great detriment to them, as they
are less likely to stand well after having
been so left. An exchange offers tho fol
lowing hints in reference to the matter ;
A piano forte ought justly to be tuned
twice a year, at least. First, when you
commence with a firo in the room; second,
when a fire was discontinued. By follow
ing this course you have the best guaranty
that the instrument will remain in tune for
tho longest period of time. Again, the
instrument should not be suffered to remain
below concert pitch; if it is for years tuned
below’, it will never after stand up to the
pitch without a great deal of labor, if, indeed,
it over stands at all. Many otherwise
beautiful instruments are nearly or quite
ruined for want of attention to these simple
facts. Yet it would not answer for a pro
fessional tuner to recommend these things;
if he does, the people will suspect him im
mediately of selfish motives, and say that he
is planning for his own advantage. Owners
of piano fortes who are not acquainted with
the nature of the instrument ought to bear
these facts in mind, when by a yearly out
lay of a trilling sum they may save to
themselves infinitely more than they ex
pend, by the preservation of their instru
ment, in which theyhaveiuvestedsomuch.
Sold Out. —We learn from the Reading
Daily 'limes that Messrs. Keller A: Yoder
have sold out their lease of the Schmucker
House, in that city, to Messrs. Kitner A Fry,
of this county.
Silverine. —We would call attention ta
this new and valuable article, fortbebenefit’
of our readers, as we have tested it and find
it to be all the manufactuaer claims for it.
It really works wonders with all articles of
copper, bronze, &0., giving them
instantly a coating of pure bright silver
which can be made permanent by an occa
sional application. It is also the bestcleaner
of silver rud silver plated ware we have
ever seen,—giving the beautiful lustre found
on new ware. It is a great saver of time
and labor, and we think after one trial no
house-keeper will be withoutit. Weknow
bv experience, and have the testimony of
scientific men and prominent chemists,
among them, Profs. Whurber and Meyer,
and Orange Judd, Ed. Agriculturist, that
it contains no ingredients injurious to
metals or the hands.
Believing it to be one of the most useful
inventions of modern times, we reocom
mend it to our friends.— N. York Farmer.
A Revolutionary Relic.— We were
shown this morning an interesting revolu
tionary relic. It was found buried four feet
below the surface of the earth by workmen
engaged in diggiug a cellar in the suburbs
of this city. It resembles an Indian toma
hawk, having a poll like an ordinary
hatchet and a long blade. The handle and
the whole instrument proved on examina
tion to be of the best steel. For some time
no one could imagine its use. It looked as
if it might have been the toy of some heir
of an Indian Chief. An old gentleman from
Valley Forge, to whom it was at length
shown, solved the mystery. It was part
and parcel of the equipment of a soldier in
the days when the old flint lock muskets
were iu use. The poll of this miniature
hatchet was used to break the flint when
the surface grew too smooth, the blade an
swered the purpose of a screw driver and
the handle, which was originally considera
bly longer than at present, was tapered to
a fine point to pick the dirt out of the touch
hole. What revolutionary sire carried this
as part of his warlike outfit we may never
know, but in these days of needle guns and
revolving arms this old relic takes the
mind hack into the more primitive past. It
is now in the possession of Mr. I. J. Steel.

tke PMiideot is to be Impeached,
how Deposed* and who la to
Sneeeed him. ""
Correspondence of the New York Herald.
Washington, Oct. 22, 1866.
When President Johnson was on his
late trip in the West a United States
Senator and two major generals of the
Army; who belonged to his party, were
approached at Indianapolis by a promi
nent Conservative Republican, wno had
been colonel of an Indiana regiment
during the war, and who is now a cap
tain in the regular service, and wdck
made the following startling statement:
He had been making speeches for the
Republicans in Indiana in August last,
and at the request of Governor Fletcher,
of Missouri, visited that State, and made
one or two Conservative speeches. He
was told by Governor Fletcher that his
speeches were too tame; that the most
radical of declarations were wanted in
Missouri; that the people must be told
that the Republicans bad decided that
the rebels should not vote, and that the
State was to be carried by force of arms
if necessary. Governor Fletcher also
told him thatt he had thirty thousand
muskets in the State in loyal hands,
and that they should be used if neces
sary to carry the State. The Indlanian
told Governor Fletcher that he was a
Republican in principle, but did not
approve of such measures and would
not advocate them. Governor Fletcher
thought him merely weak-kneed, and
answered him that he would come into
the harness after awhile. A few nights
subsequently he was present on invita
tion at a secret meeting of radical lead
ers at the Lindell Hotel. About fifty
prominent radicals were present, in
cludiugGoveruorFletcher,of Missouri;
Governor Oglesby, of Illinois, and Sen
ator Yates and John A. Logan, of lUi
; nois. The whole plan of the impeach
ment of the President was discussed,
eveu to the arrangement of filling
Washington with an armed force of
“ Boys in Blue” to protect Congress,
and also to decide who should succeed
Johnson in case Vice President Foster,
as his successor, should not prove
equally positive, and pliable to the will
of the Jacobins. Butler, Governor Mor
ton, of Indiana, and others were dis
cussed. Butler was looked upon as
lacking in courage, and Morton was
feared as being too ambitious for the
purposes of the conspirators. General
Grant was mentioned as too conserva
tive, and Sherman was scouted as a
copperhead. Finally Senator Yates
was decided upon as possessing more
stamina and less scruples than any
other available man. If President John
son offered serious resistance, and Fos
ter did not act vigorously, Yates was to
be put in to control affairs.
When he was about leaving St. Louis
the informant in the case was requested
by Governor Fletcher to ask Governor
Morton, of Indiana, what number of
arms he could spare to Missouri. Gov
ernor Morton replied, when the message
was delivered, that he could not say
that he had any to spare ; that there
were about one huudred thousand staud,
with plenty of ammunition, in the
arsenal; he would see what could be
spared, and confer with Gov. Fletcher.
Out of this correspondence grew the
conference of the Governors at Phila
delphia, which it is now well known
was for the purpose, among others, of
distributing arms throughout the
country. Outside of the statement of
this officer, there isindubitable evidence
in the hands of President Johnson of
the secret distribution of large quanti
ties of arms throughout the Northwest
on various pretexts, all of which, how
ever, are legal and plausible enough.
While the startling character of this
story causes it to be incredously received
by many, the character of the officer
making the statement, the known
desperate characters of the leaders im
plicated in the scheme, and much cor-
roborative evidence received, cause it to
be generally believed among the Presi
dent’s adherents.
Radical Murders In Hagerstown.
t Correspondence of the Baltimore Gazette. 1
Hagerstown, Oct. 20.
Our town is at present the scene of
great excitement. The Radicals are
now holding a large mass meeting, hav
ing gathered together all the roughs
from our own and also from the adjoin
ing counties of Pennsylvania, with the
full determination of cleaning out the
Conservatives in this portion of the
State. Two policemen, Mr. Charles
Gaul and Robert Sands, in attempting
to queli a disturbance, were setupon by
the mob and driven with stones some
distance, when Gaul turned and fired,
checking the crowd for a short time,
but immediately upon the engine bell
being sounded, a preconcerted signal for
them to rush to streets were
soon filled with arffied men rushing
towards the scene.
Gaul and Sands having taken refuge
in a saloon kept by a Conservative of
this place, a returned United States
soldier, and a man of sterling qualities,
the house was soon besieged by the
mob; who immediately opened fire,
whereupon policeman Gaul fired from
the window of the second story in order
to check the mob, so that the few per
sons from the inside could make their
escape, and having exposed himself too
much, was shot through the head by a
minnie ball, and fell from the window
to the pavement. The mob immedi
ately rushed in the house in awildscene
of confusion, tearing everything within
to pieces. Policeman Sands in attempt
ing to make his escape from the
house, was stabbed in the right
lung, and, after falling, was beaten ter
ribly by the mob. He is still living,
but his wound is pronounced fatal. The
mob then cut down the Johnson pole
that stood near the saloon, with the
stars and stripes floating from it, the
bodies of the two policemen still lying
on the pavement, unheeded by the
mob, the one dead, with his braius
oozing out, and the other in a dying
condition, crying for help. Several of
the mob were wounded, but I believe
slightly, save Joseph Renner, who was
shot through the body, and it is sup
posed his wound will prove fatal.
The two policemen, Gaul and Sands,
served in the United States army with
great distinction, and were honorably
discharged at the expiration of the war.
Great Fenian Meeting.
A vast concourse of nearly fifty thou
sand people assembled on Sunday in
Jones’ Wood, for the purposes of listen
ing to au address by James Stephens,
C. O. I. R., on the prospects of the ap
proaching culmination of Fenian af
fairs. The speaker was greeted with
the wildest enthusiasm, and experienced
great difficulty in making himself heard
to even the small circle of the assem
blage who happened to be within the
scope of his voice, on account of their
eagerness to crowd toward the stand.
It was understood to be his last speech
previous to departing for Ireland, where
he said he will strike a blow for Ireland
before the dawning of the new year.
He remarked that much had been al
ready done in Ireland ; an army of fifty
thousand men had been organized, the ■
aristocratic tendency of her people re
publicanized, and the nation taught to
reject the political dictation of her
Catholic clergy. This latter he urged
upon the crowd assembled, while ad
vising them to respect their spiritual
advisers in all that appertains to their
special calling. Efforts in the cause of
Ireland had failed heretofore, he said,
because of a want ot sympathy and aid
in America. A disturbance occurred
at the close of the meeting by the sup
posed discovery of a British spy, who
was badly cut and beaten before he was
rescued by policemen and proved to be
innocent of the charge.

The Eastern branch of the Pacific
Railroad is progressing at the rate of
about fifty miles per month. The
present terminus is Fort Riley, 125

400 miles from St. Louis. To show the
amount of traffic that this road is likely
to enjoy, from the start, that the mili

alone, in 1865, amounted to 47,500,000
lbs.; the private freight, merchandise.
&c., to 35,000,000 lbs.; making a total
of 82,000,000 lbs., or 41,Q00 tons, or
ducing the amount to car measurement
(ten tons each), sufficient to load 4,100
cars. This amount of freight must pass
over the railroad in the interest mainly
of St. Louis, and which must from her
present connection, bestow a Corres

Shocking Tragedy.
A Boy In Kaahvllle Bfeootk'Uie Agent of
... Uio Associated Brega Mr the Sedue
. (lon orUUHotber.
iFrom the Nashville Dispatch, Oct. 23.1
Yesterday afternoon, shortly after one
o’clock, Chas. H. AV. Bent, who is very
generally known in Nashville, and for
some eight or nine years past a resident
of the city, was Bhot in Cherry street,
near Union, by a young man named
Hugh McGavock.
The affair was the result of a bit of
scandal which transpired in Louisville,
and was published in the papers of that
city about a week ago, implicating the
mother of the latter in connection with
Mr. Bent. The occurrence is one of
those sad episodes in society with which
the journalist occasionally has to deal
Without, however, reproducing the
story detailed by the Louisville papers
we shall give only the particulars of
the melancholy result which trans
pired yesterday. About one o’clock, as
aboveatated, Mr. BentcameoutofCone’s
bookstore, on Cherry street, and in com
pany with a young man named E. P.
Thompson, connected, we believe, with
the tax office, turned up towards Union
street. He had gone but a few steps,
however, before he was confronted by
McGavock. That gentleman stepped
out of the ice house, just across the
alley, pushed Mr. Bent from the pave
ment, probably to get him clear of Mr.
Thompson, with whom he was walk
ing, and then drawing his revolver,
fired. Not a word was spoken by either
party. Mr. Bent, after receiving the
shot, walked leisurely across the street
in an oblique direction, never once
looking back, and was continuing his
way up Cherry street when McGavock
fired again. Mr. Bent then ran to the
corner, turned up Union street and
continued his accelerated pace until he
reached the alley just beyond Curry’s
undertaking establishment, where he
fell dead. McGavock, after firing the
second shot, ran up to Union street and
was about to shoot again, but was pre
vented by the cries of several persons
who called loudly for him to desist. He
then turned back down Cherry street,
where he was met a moment or two
afterwards by officers Conley and Mans
field, who took him into custody.
The body of the unfortunate Bent
was taken into Mr. Curry’s shop, where
an examination showed that both shots
had taken effect, the first entering the
left arm near the shoulder and passing
through the chest into the lungs; the
second in the left side, entering from
the back, and passing out a few inches
below the nipple, severing the left ven
tricle of the heart. Either would have
proved fatal.
Much excitement was produced by
the occurrence, and a large crowd was
collected abouttheestablisliment of Mr.
Curry, where the body was carried. The
Coroner was notified and an inquest
was held, which resulted in a verdict in
accordance with the above facts.
Au examination of Mr. Bent’s person
showed that he had two pistols in his
pockets—one a small Sharp’s four-shoot
er, the other a Smith & Wesson —and
why he acted thus passively, under the
circumstances, is perfectly unaccount
able.
Mr. McGavock, after being arrested,
was taken before ’Stpiire Wilkinson,
and there appearing no prosecution, he
was released on So,ooo bail, James Sloan
and Jacob McGavock entering upon the
bond.

SCHENCK’S SEAWEED TON IC.
This medicine, invented by Dr. J. H. Schenck. of
Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve ihe food and
make it into chyme, the first process of digestion. By
cleansing the stomach with Scbenck’s Mandrake
Pills, the Tonic soon restores the appetite, and foo ll
that could not eaten before using It will be easily
digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck's Pul
monic Syrup unless the stomach and liver Ls made
healthy and the appetite restored, hence the Tonic
and Pills are required in nearly every case of con
sumption. A half dozen bottles of the Seaweed Tonic
and three or four boxes of the Mandrake Pills will
cure any ordinary case of Dyspepsia.
Dr. Schenck makes professional visits in New York,
Boston, and at his principal Office In Philadelphia
every week. See dally papers of each place, or his
pamphlet on consumption for his days for visitation.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two like

are on the Government stamps.

A NEW AND ORAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE
Dr. Magglel-is the founder of a new Medical System’
The quantitarians, whose vast internal doses enfeeble
the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give pre
cedence to the man who restores health and appetite,
with from one to two of his extraordinary Pills, and
cures the most virulent sores with a box or so of his
wonderful and all-healing Salve. These two great
specifics of the Doctor are fast superseding all the
stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extraordinary cures
by Maggiel’s Pills and Salve have opened the eyes of
the public to the inefficiency of the (so called) remedies
of others, and upon which people have so long blindly
depended. Maggiel’s Pills are not of the class that
are swallowed by the dozen, and of which every box
ful taken creates an absolute necessity for another,
One or two of Maggiel’s Pills suffices to place the
bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach, create an
appetite, and render the spirits light and buoyant!
There Is no griping, and no reaction in the form of
constipation. If the liver is affected, its functions are
restored; and if the nervous system is feeble, It is in
vigorated. This last quality makes the medicines very
desirable for the wonts of delicate females. Ulcerous
and eruptive diseases are literally extinguished by the
disinfectant power of Maggiel’s Salve. In fact, It is
here announced that Maggiel’s Bilious, Dyspeptic and
Diarrhea PUls cure where all others foil, While for
Burns, Scaids, Chilblains, Cats and all abrasions of
the skin Magglel’s Salve is infallible. Sold by J
Maggiel, 43 Fulton Street, New York, and all Drug
gists, at 25 cts. per box.
