Tribute of Respect
The committee appointed at a special
meeting of Orcgg Post, No 95, G. A. It.,
to report a minute in relation to the
death of Dr. George L.Potter, post sur.
geon, have prepared the following for
entry upon the minutes of the Post and
for publication, as directed.
George Latimer Potter descended
from a long line of worthy ancestry,
which includes Brigadier-General .Tames
Totter of the American army during
the Revolution ; was Lorn in the month
of February, A. D, 1823, at Potters
Mills, in Centre county, Pa. His early
lifo was passed amid the scenes of com
fort and hospitable enjoyment, which
rendered the society of Potters Mills !
renowned throughout the Comrnor.
wealth, and equal to that of any com
munity of its size anywhere. His early
education was pursued at home and at
the academies at I.ewisburg and Mifflin
burg. He was graduated in his profes
sion at "The University of Pennsylva
nia'' in the spring of 1817. His entire
professional life was spent in Bellefonte,
except during the time he was actively
employed in the military service of the
country, from 1861 to 1866. He was
first appointed on the 12th of October.
1865, Surgeon of the 45th Reg't.. Penn
sylvania Vol., of which Col. Thomas
Welsh was Colonel, and in which there
were three and part of a fourth com
panies from Centre county. He served
with the regiment in Maryland and
South Carolina, and resigned at New
port News, Va., August 1, 1862, about
the time that the regiment was incor
porate'l with General Burnside's troops
from North Carolina into what was af
terwards known as the Ninth Army
Corps.
lie was appointed Surgeon of the
14* th Regiment Penn'a Vol., Sept. 12,
1862, and served with that organization,
in the First Division of the Second
Army Corps, until the close of the war,
when he was mustered out with the
itegiment, May 31, 1.865.
He was much of the time Chief Sur
geon of bis brigade, and being a very
skillful operator, was generally placed
upon the operating staff of the Division
during an engagement. The same genial,
kindly qualities which endeared him to
the many at home, rendered him very
popular in his profession in the army,
and not only in the Division but
throughout the Corps, and by many in
other army corps he was sought for as
a medical advisor and friend.
He returned to his home after the
close of the war, and has been engaged
in the active duties of his profession
among his old friends and neighbors
ever since. At the organisation of this
Post of the Grand Army of the Repub
lic, he was very fittingly chosen its Post
.Surgeon, which position he occupied at
the time of his death, which occurred
on Saturday evening, August 2, 1879.
The fraternity, charity and loyalty upon
which this organization is established,
found in his heart a ready and prompt
response. No man in this community
more than he had a large-hearted sym.
pathy with distress and sorrow wherever
he found it. Not content with the
practice of his profession among the
poor and neglected, from whom he
cared not and did not expect remuner
ation, he dispensed as his ability per.
mitted a genial charity in little articles
of diet, which would otherwise have
been wanting in the home of poverty
and distreas. It is, therefore, not sin
gular that his loss is so sincerely mourn
ed by our entire-community, and that
many rise up to bless his memory.

C'UAS. A. QLSXM, j
Mr. Hnyos und his Votooa.
Written fur the Crr HSROCSAT.
The constitution of the United States,
as is admitted by contemporaneous
writers, is a compact between sovereign
States, though tho subject matter of
that compact was a government, the
powers of which were to operate upon
tho people of those sovereign States
Rggregatcly, and not upon the State au
thorities, as is usual in confederacies.
First —H is a confederacy, hecauso in
its fuuntiation it proposes not ono single
feature of a nationality. Tho people of
tho separate States, as distinct political
communities, ratified tho constitution,
each State for itself, nud binding its
own citizens and not those of any other
State. Tho act of ratification declares
it " to be binding on the States so rati
fying. Tho States are Its authors—their
power created it—their voice clothed it
with authority—the government it
formed is in reality their government,
and the union of which it is the bond
is the union of tho States, and not of
individuals."
Second —lt is a confederacy because of
tho power of the government depend
ing not upon the people of the United
States collectively but upon tho Stato Leg
islatures, or on the separate States act
ing in their conventions. This cannot
be successfully contradicted or ex
plained away, and the contrary tenor
of Mr. Hayes' vetoes is insulting to the
sovereign power of the people and their
State rights. Not responsible to tho
people for the position lie now holds,
ho is determined to have his marshals
ami soldiers at tho poll* to control
State eloctions, ami he gives us four
veto messages because a majority of
both houses of Congress refuse to pro
vide monies to pay them for intimida
ting and arresting the qualified voters
on election day. He, therefore, be
comes a dictator, and intimate* to
Congress that if they applied to him he
would dictate or form a bill for them
that he would approve. He hail read
that Cromwell had " marched his urrny
to !.ondon to give law to Parliament,"
and he was willing to do tho same with
Congress. If the States should la-neh
surrender their jurisdiction over the
j territory, persons, State elections, and
things within their respective limits,
tho last vestige of their sovereignty is
gone. This jurisdiction is the only
sheet anchor of their sovereignty—of
their existence.
That Mr. Hayes is criminally abusing
the veto power and using it for the pur
pose of consolidating the States into an
empire, is self evident. How did Pres. j
idenl Madison act when Congress char
tered the Cnitcd States bank? On
the third of March, Is 17, he vetoed j
that act which "set apart a portion
of the bonus of the national hank* for
internal improvements." Congress re
passed the act with a slight alteration,
and Mr. Madison approved it, giving his
reasons—in which he says, "that the
reasons given in his veto message remain
unchanged, but as Con great by a majority
ha* passed the bill re-chartering the
United States bank, that out of due
regard and respect to the acts of the
othor department of government, it
would he presumption in him to sup
pose that he had more wtsdom, more
virtue and more dtecrrtion than the ma- i
jority of both houses of Congress, he
had approved the act." Unlike Mr.
Hayes, he did not abuse the veto
powor. In 1834, it was proposed in the :
United States Senate to amend the
constitution in this respect, so that {
after a presidential veto the act re
turned should be law if passed again
by a timp/e majority and such should be
the law. This is worthy of considera
tion.
It may be observed that the rights of
the States are two-6>ld. First, those
enumerated in the constitution, and
second, those out of the constitution,
which cannot be 'exercised save by
free, independent and sovereign States :
Ist, to protect the liberty and property
of their citizens { 2d, jurisdiction over
all the territory, lives and property of
their citizens within the chartered
limits; 3d, to repel invasion; 4th, to
arm, train, officer and command their
own militia; sth, to punish treason,
insurrection and rebellion against the
State; 6th, to levy taxes on their own
citizens and on their property ; 7th, to
regulate the rate of interest on money
in their own States ; Bth, to refuse send
ing members of Congress. (Could Mr-
Hayes with his marshals and soldiers
compel a single State to elect members
of Congress against its consent?); 9th,
to refuse to join in the election of
President and Vice President. Many
other considerations might be adduced,
but they are needless.
The usurpation of Mr. Hayes in send
ing his marshals and soldiers to control
Htate elections and secure the election
of bis political partisans is a revolution
of the Htate constitutions and election
laws, and should be resented by every
lover of free government. 11a refers to
Article IV, section 2. of the constitution
of the United -States, which relates to
property, bringing of suite, full protec
tion in person and uetate, Ac., and not
to those rights which form tho very
nature of society and -government be
longing exclusively to citizens of par
ticular States. Such are the rights of
elections and representation, for they
cannot bo impurted to any but citizens
without an invasion of the principles
of tho social compact. A citizen of
Pennsylvania cannot cross the line into
Maryland, or New Jersey,or New York
und vote there. Ho must be domiciled
und qualified in other respects, whether
as to proporty, age, term of residence,
or otherwise, according to the luws of
the particular State in which he may
claim to exercise the right of franchise.
Common sense points out this distinc
tion, and it should ho borne in mind.
Why prevent tho cltisen of another
State on tho day of election from
voting 7 Can Mr. Hayes and his mar
shals compel the judges of State elec
tions to take suoli a vote? And what
: prevents it? The simple answer is
that State rights puts its veto on such
attempts.
But the truth is Mr. Hayes is prepar
ing tho way to elect his successor. The
| chaste Conkling and tho base-born
gladiator of Maine having lashed him
' into obedience, aro now prompting and
I urging him to his present tyrannical
| acts to destroy every vestige of the
rights of Slates in the hope of contin
j umg their party in power through ccn
| tralixation and consolidation. I<et the
i pooplo look to their liberties, for tho
! danger is great and it must le averted
if possible. The only salvation for the
people is to have an amendment to the
| constitution that will enable them to
; vote i/i 'rrctly for President and Vice
' President, and the sooner the better.
These letters have already been ex
j *
tended much beyond what 1 originally
(imposed a* their utmost limit. They
1 have been hastily written, never revised
and are altogether unpretending in
their character. They have been de
signed merely to revive in the minds of
those who may read them almost
forgotten principles of '9B and '99. and
call public attention to the attempt of
Mr. Hayes to prevent the citizens of
the States from holding free elections,
ami thus change our republican form of
government into an elective monarchy.
Of course, like other newspaper para,
graph* upon the same subject, they
may be forgotten with the passing hour.
This is exactly the fate that 1 wish them
to experience, if they can have the de
sired impression as they are read.
I'ATBICR lliMr.
■i a. ...
Read This.
The following truthful and eloquent
extract from a speech delivered a few
day* since at Cleveland by General F.w
ing ought to l-e treasures! in the heart
of every American citizen. It is the
briefest and most powerful extinguisher ,
we have ever seen of that dangerous
fallacy of the Republican (arty that
maintains the unlimited power of the
National Government. If the doctrine
of centralization is to prevail, we will
only he a republic in name, and soon j
the name itself will become odious to !
tho aristocratic classes who are trying i
to make this a splendid government at
the expense of the working men :
My fellow-feitizens, the war was not
waged to change but to preserve and
perpetuate the *ystem of government
devised by our forefathers, ft squelched
and ended for all time the pretended j
right of any Stale to secede from the j
I'nion, but it were a result of war most '
disastrous to the people if, in blind re- ■
sentment against the supporters of that I
exploded fallacy, they suffer the party
which conooctcd the war to itself de
stroy our system of government by
abolishing the reserved rights and lib
erties of the people of the State*. The
attempt to do it is founded on the false
and insulting pretense that the people
have become corrupt and cannot be
trusted with the management of elec
tion of member* of Congress. In
God'* name, if the people are so de
based, is the Federal Government purer
and better ?
No, fellow-citizens, republic* com
mence to rot where the wealth and
power and patronage of the Govern
ment centres. The greater the power
and patronage of tho Government the
quicker corruption sets in. It was to
guard against this that our furefathera
were jealous of every grant of (rower to
the General Government, and carefully
reserved to the Slate and the people
all powers not indispensable to form
and preserve the Union. The State
Government* arc administered more
purely than the General Government,
precisely because they are nearer to the
tieople, the ultimate source of power.
The county governments are as a rule
purer than Uiose of the State*. The
township governments are purer than
those of the counties, and the achool
districts are purest of all, precisely
in proportion to the nearness of the
government to the people in its pu
rity and efficiency. If this be not so
popular government is a delusion and a
snare. Then the farther you oan take
the government away from the inspec
tion and control of the people the bet
ter and purer it is.
The police department, as required by
a State law, completed on Saturday a
census of voters of Baltimore. The
result is a total of 71,501, of which 61,-
133 are white and 10,368 colored. This
gives an increase of 4,976 of over the
census of votera taken*two year* ago.
The KIIHIIH'NH Revival.
Hon Abrom 8. Hewitt, of New York,
1M not only a successful business man,
but he has made bin mark in the coun
try an a remarkable clear thinker and
a* one of the most promising of our ris
ing statesmen. The following para
graphs, published in the New York tun,
embodying his opinions in regard to
business prospects, are well worthy of
public attention:
''The revival o( the iron trade," said
Mr. Hewitt "is the legitimate result of
the revival of business generally. In
February I said in Congress that as soon
as we came down to a basis of solid
values —that is, values measured by gold
we should have prosperity. The trou
ble was not that there was no money.
There was plenty of capital, but there
was a lack of confidence. Capitalists
were afraid to invest their money when
we had u depreciated and fluctuating
currency. Now that values are fixed,
an era of prosperity begins. Railroads
aro being constructed, factories built.
Western settlements are rapidly spring
ing up, and long hoarded capital is
again in circulation. In short, there is
a general increase of prosperity. A re
vival of the iron trade never precedes,
but follows a revival of general business.
Iron is needed to carry out the revival.
When an era of prosperity begins, when
trade revives, and great enterprises are
planned, iron is needed to carry on ihe
work. Hence the revival of the iron
trade is proof positive of a genuine reviv
al of business generally. The evidence
is this : Kvcry iron works that kept at
work during the period of depression is
now overrun with orders, is working at
its full rapacity and unable to fill its or
der*. Others, that had to stop opera
tions, are nqw going to work again. The
raw material for making iron ores, pig
and scrap iron has advanced from ten
to twenty five per cent, t'oal alone has
not advanced. The reason is unusual.
It is because the producers have a ca
pacity for putting coal on the market
far in advance of the demand, and not
warranted by the condition of things.
Hence coal can't go up.
"Gray forge pig iron, the standard pig
iron, ha- advanced from $l4 to $ IT a ton,
and there is a demand for all that can
l-e made. But the price will not go up
much higher, for the reason that, if the
price goes up, then foreign iron will be
placed on the market. We are now im
(sirting iron in the form of steel and
iron rails and old rails. The great de
mand for iron baa stripped the country
of the immense stock of old rails that
had accumulated in the era of depres
sion. <ld rails are used, you know, for
working over, and are made into new
iron. Most of the material u<-d on tin
elevated roads is made from old rails.
"The only <juetion is whether the
prosperity will continue. It is bound to
continue, 1 think, but we shall have no
era of high price*, simply a healthy, re
munerative busine*-. with moderate
price*, that will enable consumers to go
on with their enterprises. This is true
tirosjierily. High prioea check progress.
>Ve have got to that stage when every
thing will go on without an era of high
price*. I said that many iron works
were again lieginning operations. This
relates primarily to blast furnace*. But
the furnace* that are again going into
blast are those that can make iron
cheaply. Those that from their situa
tion or any other cause# cannot make
iron for less than $l5 a ton cannot go
into blast. This country can now pro
duce aliout 4,000,000 tons of pig iron ;
2,000,000 of this can lie made under $l5
a ton; the other 2.000,000 cannot l>e
ma<le for leas than $2O. Now. pig iron
can't go above $2O: when it d<w-s the
importer steps in. Why, I can import
first grade grny forge iron for $l9, pay
ing a duty of $7. No you see gray forge
iron can't go above $l9.
A Deaf Mate Recover* Hl# Speech.
A serious collision, bv which five per
son* were killed, occurred on the Atlan
tic City Narrow guage railroad on Thurs
day afternoon last. Among those kill
ed was Charles Scholl, a deaf mute,
who, strange to say, recovered his
speech and hearing just previous to his
death. The interesting particulars are
thti* described by the Philadelphia
Rrrord :
One of the strangest incidents con
nected with the accident was the re
covery of his speech and hearing by
Mr. Hcholl just about ten minutes before
he died. After he was caught between
the cars and his right leg crushed he
immediately called in an incoheienl
manner for help. Noon his tonea could
lie distinctly understood, and ho begged
piteously to be released. Strong men
rushed to his aid and with axe* broke
the limbers that held him in their vice
like grip. The young man was laid on
the grass, and he saia : "Oh ! give me a
drink of water."
He was given a draught of water,
when he said in a faint voice : "I feel
better now ; I'll get l>etter." The doc
tor shook his head ominioualy and re
marked : "We'll see how ho is in ten
minute*."
The remark had harely escaped his
lips when Ncboll cried out:
"Give me some water! Oh, do! It
will be the last I'll ever ask for."
The poor fellow was given another
drink. Ilia potion was deep and long.
Then hia eyes closed, and he seemed to
pas* off" into a quiet sleep, but it was
that deep slumber which knows no
waking.
A Congressman Not Allowed to Preach.
From th Portland A runs.
Rev. Mr. De lot Matyr attended the
Chestnut Street Methodist Church Sun
day afternoon, and some of the promi
nent members desired to have the rev
erend gentleman preach. A council of
trustee* and official waa held, and while
some of them were in favor of listening
to the words of wisdom aa they fell
from the gentleman's lips a majority
were opposed to his preaching, thinking
it might exert a bad influence. Rev.
Mr. I>e I-a Matyr has been a minister of
the (Jospel thirty years, and he says thia
is the first time he waa ever refused a
Methodist pulpit.
IHsiisfrotis Fire In Boston
*
TREMORT TIVPU DESTROYED ARD THE
PARKER HOUSE lIAHEI.V SAVED.
A fire broke out about eleven o'clock
on last Thursday night, in the rear part
of the roof of the Tremont Temple,
situated on Tremont street and adjoin
ing the rear portion of the Parker
House, The flames got pretty good
headway before the arrival of the fire
department, and before the engineer
got fairly at work the roof was destroy
ed and a portion of the walla on the
side and rear had fallen in, almost com
pletely destroying the building.
The fine organ near which the fire
broke out is destroyed and the build
ing is very thoroughly gutted. The
blaze soon assumed the proportions of
an extensive conflagration and the
proximity to the J'arker House, on
.School street, opposite the City Ilsll,
occasioned general alarm to the guests
of that hotel, nearly all of whom had
feli rod.
The building seemed in imminent
j danger, and the guests made hasty pre
parations for a change of quarters.
Many of them not being willing to
! stand the risk of the hotel catching on
| fire promptly left the house, while oth
ers quickly got their baggage into the
hall and corridors, awaiting the moin-
I ont when it would he necessary to seek
! safer accommodations.
| In about an hour, however, the fire
was well under control, and, beyond a
i slight scorching of the walls in the
j rear portion of the hotel, no mutcrial
damage was done.
The loss on the Temple, which is
owned by the American Bible Society,
is estimated at from |I<X),'XX) to $125,
! 'XX>. Several fireman were injured by
falling walls, but it is thought none
j were dangerously hurt. The fire is be
liever! to have originated from the com
bustion of gas.

A Shoemaker's Strike.
TfriH*, Auguat fl.
A wedding occurred lm-t evening in
this city which recalls strikingly some
of the incidents in the "Arabian
Knights." It was between two favor
ite* of fortune whose sudden removal
from poverty to opulence has few paral
b Is in fiction and far fewer in real life.
The bridegroom is Mr. August Kiache,
who wa*, a year and a half ago. a jo<ir
man, obtaining a meagre living by work
ing at his trade an a shoemaker, lie
| one of the pioneers of J-eadville,
and had the good fortune to "strike it
rich." He was the discoverer of the
Little I'ittsburg mine. He is now the
partner of Governor Tabor and the
owner of fourteen or fifteen mine*,
some of which are among the best silver
mines in the country. Among them
are the Saxon, Nevada, Hard ( ash, Pen
field, Red Rogers and Alaska. lie it
forty-five years old. '1 he bride was
Mis Minnie lungbuhn, twenty four
years old. Till a lew weeks ago she
supported herself by sewing in the •
lablishment of Glauz A I'eriolat, fur
riers. The engagement occurred a few
week s ago. Mr. Rtsche met Miss
lunghubn at Glauz A i'eriolat's and
proposed at once. The time of the
wedding was not decided on, however,
till Monday, when it was determined to
have it the following evening. The
wedding occurred at the residence of
Mr. and Mrs. C. F. IVriolst. No. 14 I'ark
avenue. The ceremony wo* solemnized
at half past seven o'clock by the Rev.
T. N. Morrison, dr.. of the Church of the
Lhiphany. Mr. and Mr*, iurighuhii,
the parents of tho bride, and Mr. and
Mrs. I'eriolat stood up with the bridal
couple. The bride was attired in a
j-esrlcolored silk and brocaded satin,
. cut a la pnncese. with a long, square
train, trimmed with orange blossoms.
-ho wore diamond solitaire ear-rings
and diamond pin and bracelets. After
the ceremony a supper of the most
sumptuous character was served. The
bridal pair go to New York, Washing
ton and Baltimore, and then return by
way of this city to Denver, where they
1 will reside. Mr. Kiscbe has just paid
$42,000 for a furnishes! house in I>enver,
to which he will take hi* bride. Mr.
Riscbe's (.resent to the bride consisted
of a watch and chain and diamond jew-'

fineat present* were sent by Mr. Uische's
Denver friends, and did not arrive in
