4 Stljc men, New BlDomftcfo, )cu NEW BLOOMFIKLD, PENN'A. Tuesday, March 24, 1H74. WSSMllMuJBeVItiiS' A Cincinnati dispatch says n numlier of the largest distilleries of Cincinnati admit that since the commencement of the wo men's tomperance crusade their business decreased fully 7 per cent. Business is gone no orders are coming in, mid wholesale dealers hesitate to trust retailers whose stock mny go to the gutters. A Terrific hurricane, accompanied by thunder, lightning and rain, passed over Cairo, 111., at 3 o'clock on Wednesday morn ing, causing great destruction of property. The centre of the storm seems to have passed south of Cairo, as the wires wotk as usual north of the city, and no damages are reported in that direction. Mr. Sumner's Successor. The contest for Mr. Sumner's successor is narrow I n jj. The principal candidates are now conceded to be Messrs. Dawes, Adams, Iloar, and Banks. It is thought that the democrats, who have 73 votes out of 280, will unite on a liberal republican. The vote is to bo taken to day, and it may be that sonio less piomincnbspoliticiaii will be taken up as compromise candidate. What Cause! It. The death of Mr. Sumner brings again to mind the attack made on him May 22nd, 1850, and which has ever since affected his health. Mr. Sumner on the 19th of that month, made a remarkable speech in the Senate, which gave great offence to the South Carolina delegation, and the follow, hig extract will now be of Interest. In ro fering to that Slate, he said : Were the whole history of South Caro lina blotted out of existence, from its very beginning down to ihe day of tlio eleotiou Of the Senator to his present seat on this floor, civilization miht lose I do not Kay bow little, but surely less than it has Hi ready gained by the example of Kansas, in its valiant struggle against oppression, and in the development of a new science of em igration. Ah, sir, I tell the Senator that Kansas, welcomed as a free State, will be a 'ministering angel' to the Republ io wliou South Carolina, in the cloak of darkness which she hugs, lies howling." As we now see the condition of South Carolina, and compare it with the prosper ous condition of Kansas, the remarks seem almost prophetic. And where are the members who were engaged in this dis grace fl attack ? Brooks, the most guilty of the attacking party, died within a year, despised and neglected by those who had urged him on. Butler soon followed him, and during the war Keitt full, trying to support the Southern cause, and the three are nearly forgotten. Ilarrihburg Correspondence. IIariiibucko, March 21st, 1874.' To record the toying of the Legislature for the week past, would occupy more space than you would care to use. But to record the doingt of real interest or for the good of the public will occupy but a few lines. Never has there been a session held when so little was done in so a long time. By some who properly appreciate their ca pabilities, a disposition is shown to adjourn and leave Legislation to their successors, who it is hoped will have the ability to do more and talk less. The f 10 per day, how ever, is fo much more than the majority can possibly make in any occupation they may have at home, that that class will no doubt out vole those who are willing to adjourn, and so lengthen out the session as fares possible. The great mistake now made in fixing salaries for publio officials, is, that the honor of the position is entirely over looked. The consequence is that the plaoes which were once desired for the honor they conferred, are now sought by politicians only fur the emoluments connected there with. The bill providing for paying the news papers for advertising the New Constitu tion, has been finally passed. The Senate has disagreed with the House on the amendment to the Judicial apportionment bill, aud a conference committee, of the two Houses have agreed upon a compromise. It makes no change as far as Ferry and Juniata are concerned, but leaves Ilium as the 41st district. The Senate bill appropriating $1,000,000 to tho Centennial exposition, ha met with favor iu the House, and passed first rend ing by a large majority. Tho death of Col. Thompson, was referred to in the House on Wednesday last, by Mr. Iletrlck, of Juniata county, in a few appropriate, and eloquent reinaik. The report that Speaker McCormick was to receive the appointment to the place made vacant by the death of Hon. Bucher Swope, was generally believed here for some days, except by a few who knew that Senator Scott had no chance to secure the place for any friend of his, if Cameron ob jected. While there was a prospect that this appointment would be made, bright vision" of political preferment arose before Representatives Mylin, of Lancaster, aud Newmyer, of Allegheny, one of whom was moetlikley to secure the position of Speaker incase McCormick resigned. But alas! for human hopes ; with the appointment of Uon. David Keen, as U. B. District Attor ney, for Western Penn'a., there will be no vacancy in the Dpeiiker's chair, and con sequently these hopes wore blasted. I tendor them my sympathy, but congratu late the people of the western part of the State, in their escape froiu the Infliction of McCormick. A joint resolution ha passed the House, requesting the U. S. to donate the Carlisle barracks to the use of Soldiers' Orphans' schools, and if tho building are not to be used for the purpose for which they were originally Intended, no butter use than the one proposed could be made of the property. The temperance wave has readied this place, but so far the proceedings have been conducted with great propriety. The action taken on the license quest ion, the bill hav ing been referred back to the committee, shows that the Legislature will hesitate to touch the subject this session, and this proves that the agitation of the temperance people has had its ell'ect. Tho House has passed a joint resolution requesting the President to appoint a court to re-examine the charges against General Fitz John I'oiter. Some persons might think it would bo better for the House to show nn ability to transact its own legiti mate business before attending to National affairs. Neither House in session to-day. Quid Nunc. Miscellaneous News Items. An extraordinary circumstance in the history of the country occurs on the death of Mr. Fillmore. Never before since the administration of Jefferson has it hap pened that only one person was alive, ex cept the incumbent, who had filled the Presidential office. Andrew Johnson is now the only ex-President living; and even ho was not elected to that office, but came to it ns Vice-President on the assassination of Mr. Lincoln. While the younger Adams was President, the eldor Adams, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe wore living. 'When Buchanan was elected, Van Buren, Tyler, Pierce, and Fillmoro wore alive. When Lincoln was inaugurated Van Buron, Tyler Pierce, Fillmore, and Buchanan were liv ing. Within thulast thirty-seven ycars,seveu Presidents have been elected besides Grant. It is an extraordinary fact that not one of the seven is now alive. tSf Women are clearly proving their light to a perfect equality with men. Here is Miss Belle Murray, acting deputy-clerk of the Circuit Court of McLean County, Illinois. Not only has she discharged the duties of the office as well as any man could have dono, but it is charged that she has embezzled money with true masculine boldness. She is now on trial for the of fence, and it will doubtless appear that fast horses, wine, and disreputablo male com panions have been the cause of her ruin. Now that women havo thus proved their ability to steal quite as successfully as men there need be no further discussion as to their right to hold office. Miss Murray ought to be sent to Congress or the Legisla ture as soon as she is out of her present difficulties. tW Littlo George Gnugh was sliding down hill in East Hampton, Conn., about half a mile from home. His mother stood at the window aud saw him slide into a pond at the foot of the long hill. Nobody was with him, and he was too young to help himself. She started for the pond as fast as she could run, climbing fences and stumbling through banks of snow. Before reaching the place she became so breath less, soared, and exhausted that she fell half fainting; but she got on her feet again, and staggered on. When she came to the water.which stood three feet deop over the ice, she waded iu aud drew out the boy, but he was dead. tSTSome years ago a letter was received in Now Orleans, directed to " the biggest fool in New Orleans." The postmaster was absent, and on his return one of the young clerks informed 1dm of the receipt of the letter. " And what become of it ?" in quired tho postmaster. ' Why," replied the clerk, "I did not know who the big gest fool iu New Orleans was,so I opened the letter myself." "And what did you find in it?" inquired the postmaster. " Why, " replied the clerk, " nothing but the words, 'Thou ait the man!' " tW The salaries paid to postmasters differ very much. The postmaster ip New York receives $0,000 por annum, the high est salary paid, while the Boston official re ceives $4,000, Philadelphia $4,000, Pitts, burgh $4,000, Reading $3, COO, and Lancas tor $3,800. One of the smallest salaries is paid to the postmaster of Britzmauville, N. Y,. who receives the small sum of $3 per annum, while very large number re ceive salaries ranging from that amount to $12. tST Adam Forepailgh, proprietor of the great animal show, which baa been exhibi ted all over the country, has received a letter from the office of the cousulate of the United States in Bangkok, Siam, stating that his agent is now on his way hither, In the Dutch ship Osten, bringing with hint a white elephant, the first that ever left the kingdom of Slam. lyilr, Brady, who after the chief officers of tlie Pennsylvania had beon swept overboard by a heavy sea took command of the ship and brought her safely into port, has been appointed her captaln.which looks as if, in one instance at least, the right man is to be found in the right place. tW A couple ' were recently married in Hardin county, Iowa, and after the cere mony the bride asked the husband his name. They had been acquainted only a few hours when be proposed and she accepted. tW The Now Orleans City Railroad re cenlly .sunk in the river a bag containing 47,000 counterfeit nickel coins, the returns of one year's business. The railroad com panies have oflured a reward of $1,000 for Information which will load to the discov ery and punishment of the counterfeiters. tSf'A. Hartford gentleman who had tar ried late at a wine supper found his wife awaiting his return in a high state of ner vousness. Said she : " Here I've been waiting and rocking In a chair till my head swims round liko a lop." "Jess so where I've been," responded he j " it's in the at mosphere." Willianisport, March 17. The temper ance movement is still in progress with increased interest. Many of the saloons are closed. The ladies started out this af ternoon and on reaching Washington street it was ascertained that 200 or 800 Germans had congregated. Lager beer was served from a wagon, and the crowd was boisterous and threatening. Tumblers were thrown and the police threatened. The movement was unexpected and has greatly injured the cause of the liquor deal ers. Two arrests were made. Rockland, Mo., March 10. At Hosmer'a Pond, Camden, last evening, a young man named Kellar, accompanied by Miss Holt, were driving on the road used for hauling ice, when the team broke through, carry ing the buggy and occupants usder the ice and were both drowned. Biddeford, Me., March 10. The head of a woman nppaieutly twenty years old, with dark hair and regular, handsome features, was found on the bank of . the Saco river yelerday. A card was tied around hor forehead, with a brick attached. The head had been chopped from the body close to the chin. SI nut go Phenomenon. A dispatch from Raleigh, N. C, contains the following remarkable story : " Intense excitement prevails here at this moment over the startling discovery of the commencement of an astonishing physical convulsion in the midst of a coun try which for hundreds of years as far back as tradition extends has lain undis turbed in the perennial growth and matur ing of superficial nature. Bald mountain, iu the western part of tho state, is in a state of volcanio eruption. People who have recently arrived bete are eager with the information that the farm houses and cottagos along the sides and tho base of the mountain have boon thrown down by tho rocking of tho great mass to Its foundation. Many of the in habitants have fled in fear aud terror to seek safety elsewhere from the terrible de vastations which may result from the ama zing phenomenon. A thin vapor issues from the top of the mountain, and an up heaving of fire and lava from the deep bowels of the earth is hourly expected. There is a low rumbling sound of mighty volume constantly audible over the entire surface of the mountain, and the snow melts as fast as it falls from the heavens." Treating the Wrong Disease. Many limes Women call upon their fam ily physicians, one with dyspepsia, nnother with palpitation, another with trouble of the breast, another with pain here and there,and iu this way they all present alike to themselves and their easy-going and in different doctors, separate and distinct dis eases, for which he prescribes his pills and potions, assuming them to be such, when, in reality, they are all symptoms caused by some uterine disoider; aud while they are thus only able perhaps to palliate for a time, they are ignorant of tho cause, and encourage their practice until largo bills are made, whon tho suffering patients are no better in the end, but piobably wotse for the delay, treatment, and other com plications made, and which a proper medi cine directed to the cause would have en tirely removed, thereby instituting health and comfort instead of prolonged misery. From Miss Lomnda E. St. Clair, Shade, Athens Co., O., Oct. 14th, 1872 : "Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. Your Favorite Prescription is working al most like a miracle on me. I am better already thati I have been for over two years." 1 From Ei.i.a A. ScnAPER,Znnesvillc,Iud., Aug. 8, 1872 : ' Dr. Pierce I received the medicine you sent me aud began using it immediate ly. As a result of the treatment I feel bet ter than I have for three years." From Mrs. John IC.
