avoid it. She stands under many obligations to

received part of the mangled remains of poor Po

EXPLODING Tiff.. CHARGCS —The remarks of Lord
John Russel on the alleged unconstitntional inter
ference of Prince Albert in political matters, with
which he had no business, was considered as hav
ing ioccesstully refuted these accusations. He ana
lyzed the various charges of unconstitutional inter
ference on the part of the Prince, either at the Horse
Guards, or with Ministers ihemselves,byiliwarting
their advice; and I tstly give art emphatic denial to
the assertion of his having kept up a correspondence
with English Ambassadors abroad. He succeeded
in eliciting the sympathies of his hearers, lor the
Prince Consort as an extremely ill used person ;
and was loudly eheered by all parties at the con

however, looks upon the refutation as affording
indirect testimony of their truth.

Towanda, Feb. 14, 1854
Ds \ Tit OT G es. Aasirvitosict —The death ol Gen
Robert Armstrong, so well known as the intimate
mend to whom Jackson bequeathed his war-sword
snd as the confidential adviser of President Polk, is
announced in the Waseington papers. General
Armstrong earned his military title by gallant ser
vice in the Elorida war of 1835 lie had previous
ly distinguished himself In the campaign of 1813
—'ls, and was wounded severely in the battle of
Talladga, against the Creek Indians. in 1829 he
was made postmaster, at .Nashville, by Gen. Jack•
son, and remained there until 1845, when he was
appointed Consul at Liverpool by President Polk
During the past y ear or two he was proprietor of
the Washington Union. His death occurred on
Thursday evening and was caused by congestion of
the brain. Gen. Armstrong was a native of Tenn.,
and about sixty five years of age at the time of his
decease... lie was liked by all parties for his genet
ous, rowdy qualities.
FROM CONGRESS —The Nebraska bill occupies
the attention of the Senate, speeches having been
made by BleSitea. COOPER, PCTTIT and CAS., The
latter deprecates its introduction, would have pre
(erred the bill of last session, tint will now vote for
it in its present shape.
In the House, Mr. Gam made a speech'upon
the Ilomesteark bill, which we shall give our rea
ders, at the earliest possible moment. It has been
universally commented upon, as one of the ablest
efforts of the session.
0;:r About a year since, a bustling little individ
aid, calling himself H. M. Butte, and representing
himseli as an agent for the Democratic Review, paid
this place a visit, and pursuaded several our citi
zens to subscribe for that periodical, paying in ad
vance. Two or three numbers of the work made
their appearance thereafter, and then it stopped en
tirely. What is the mater? Is the Democratic
Revieil defunct, or was Mr. BURR obtaining mo
ney under false pretenses! If the former is the
case, we believe there will be no regret—but peo
ple have a disinclination to have their pockets pick
ed by sharpers.
Foment News —A later arrival brings three
Jays later intelligence, which, however tines not
materially change the aspect of affairs. France and
• England are making active and estensive,prepera
tionstlor.war, and the probabilities are that all Ea.
rope must become involved In the struggle.

PLLGUI.ARITY.
For the Bradford Repo
By the following which we take' from the Harris
burg Keystone, of the 0.2 d FebtoarY, those , of your
readers who arisy.ollbare.been, in ;be habit of via.
iting Harrisburg, will see, that a , goOd man is no
mote:— ~ ,
I=l
DR Ltrra . sa,Rxmv.—This gentleman, a native
of whit is now Lebanon county, came to Harris
burg many years ago, penniless, -but honest: hav
ing in Min that sort of sitif which is sore to make
its possessor a place and a name in the world. •Af
ter cornpleaingThis medical studies, under so able a
man as Dr Kurrin'Lirrneti, he launched his bask
in the therkmall town of Harrisborg. Soon a large
practice flowed upon him—extending itself yearly
so that it might almost be said that at one time, he
hail all " the practice" in town—and of course his
fortune was made.
Da Remy was an assistant surgeon; yet under
age, in the war of 1812, in the brigade at that gal.
hint veteran, who ie yet amongst us, Gen. JOHN
FORSTER, while the captains, o.her officers, and
nearly all his companions, have preceded him to
the last roll-call. Although often pressed to do so,
Dr R. never held any public office outside of his
daily walks, except that of member of the House
of Representatives in the Congress of the United
States. In that, as in all others, he acquitted him
self creditably.
Dr. 11 was a model busband,and indulgent parent,
and a liberal man. For many years of his life be
gave away much of his immensely valuable lime to
a large circle of patients, to poor to pay him, and to
this he added the liberal use of his purse. A be.
loved practitioner—a skilful one, it needs no addi
tion to demonstrate that he was a asaccessful one.
He was, besides; an eminently wactical and pro
fessing Christian, Ion." an active member of the
German Reformed church, most of his life one
of its officers, always a cheerful giver, he was
as highly esteemed there '
• as he was amid the
turmoil and vexations ol the world. His death.at,
the comparatively early and useful ,age of sixty
leaves a void in all the circles of this community,
which will long be noted ; as no man in it was
more active, more benevolent, or more frequently
called upon in cases of difficulty, and no one whose
decision was more frequently accepted In this
tribute, care has been taken to speak the truth, and
avoid panegyric, which in this town would be
deemed superfluous. H.
The death of such a man. requires more than a
passing . notice. His reputation belongs not only to
Harrisburg, but to the State at large—and it may be
truly said of him that his place will be a long while
vacant.
Dr Reify was one of those men who are endow
ed by nature with a discriminating mind, and strong
common sense, associated with a suavity of man
ner which will always win roops of friends among
all classes Early in life he succeeded to the
practice of Dr. Luther, and from that time midi ar
rested by the disease which terminated his life, his
practice was limited Only by his ability to endure
fatigue and exposure—his presence was always a
sunbeam in the room of the invalid, and when his
voice was heard in the Hall, or his familiar knock
at the door, no matter how fir gone the patient may
have been, the weak form always reemd to gather
strength during his visit. His temper was always
even, and his manners gentle, and well does the
writer remember the anxiety with which he always,
during a long and violent illness—counted the
hours between his visits—his visits too were al
ways punctual—systematic in all he did—his pa
tients were seldom kept waiting after the hour ap•
pointed. During the time he practised medicine
in Harrisburg, he has stayed the dying hour of a
large number of persons t oth in town and country.
It was one of his maxims that while his patient
liced there was hope, and it became so well known,
that when it was announced that " Dr. Reify had
given up," the recovery ,of the patient was never
looked for.
In the life of such a man every little peculiarity
of manner or dress, derives importance horn asso
ciation. His dress almost the entire year was block,
with the exception in summer, of a loose linen
hock coat, and he seldom went without a cane, and
with his boots always polished, and his clean linen
shirt bosom-..it became a saying among his adrni
rers that " Dr. Reily always approached a sick room
and bed a gentleman!' His extensive practice
gave him a thorough knowledge of human nature
and his success as a physician is perhaps to beat
tributed as much to the manner he treated the tem.
per and mind of his patient as to his prescriptions
One great feature in his mode of treatment was the
power he possessed of insptriug his patient with his
own hope—no matter how desponding the patient
might be, after the Doctor had spent fifteen minutes
with him, hie hope had completely revived and he
seemed to feel that he was going to recover. Dr
Reily was extremely popular with all classes and
all ages; the writer has often seen groups of chil
then ceasing their gambols, to greet him with a
smile as he passed, and deny one in the group
happened to ask " who is that?" it met with the
instant response from almost all the rest, " why !
don't you know Dr.,lleily
Dr. Deily lived and died a Christian; the church
with which he was comm.:Jed at Harrisburg will
feel his loss deeply. In counsel he was prudent,
and in the defence of the right, he was firm and de
cided—and his well known character gave strength
to every project, having the good of the church and
congregation in view. Dr. Deily will be missed by
the poor of Harrisburg, to whom he was always a
generous friend—(lispeak of the industrious poor,
for idleness always found iq him a strong oppo
nent) He will be missed by the residents of Har
risturg more than any other citizen—he will be
missed in the surrounding ne?ghborhood and in the
adjoining counties, (for his; practice extended to
Cumberland, York & Lebanon Counties.) The stran
gers who for twenty-five years past have from time
to time visited Harrisburg, will miss him in accus
tomed walks and rides.
lie leaves a wife and five children (three daugh-
ters and two sons,) to whom his loss will be irre•
parable, and nothing which could be offered in this
communication can assuage their grief, unless it be
the fact that they have the heartfelt sympathy of
hundreds of the good and influential men through
out the State.
Dr. Reily has left behind a very handsome for
tune; the result' of prudent management frugal
kabits.of his noire life.- In paying this last tribute
to a bincere hien() and benelactor of his kind, ihe
riter has; only obeyed the dictates of his own heart
