THE COCSTT rBUTOtf.
irt T i . ;il - TI.-
tbe citizens of this county irrespective f
party mill ask that body to repeal the
Special Printing Act patsed last winter
for Juniata county. It is a defeclive act
lly it the Commissioners become a Court
to sit in judgment cn. and award the pub
Ix. and other j riming. There is no pro
vision in it to restrict them to a just
award. It is an act that impose no
penalties for violation. It is nnconstitu
tional. and if submitted to a court of jus
tice would be so declared, and yet under
this 'st called law" men claim to compel
obedience to their rulings, wilhont, pro
per examination, and then also claim
that they are not responsible, if their ac
timiK do not accord with the principles of
lw. jh tl.e act be repealed. Let our
Honorable Senator do justice to his con
tiru;nra Let the law stand n it was
previous to the piasage of any Special
Act for Juniita county. Or, let a law
l.e i.ssed that will give the County
Printing to tbe two papers that will pub
lish it fur the least money. The- tax
payers would be tin gttn-rs by such a
law, and the county printing wonld be
brought by it to tbe common level on
which contract are awarded, namely, by
giving them to the lowest bidders. The
State printing is let to the lowest bidder.

17 ugh Marra, who, few years ago.
in the interest of some parties in Phila
delphia, attempted to kill James Brooks,
and who lately shot Bill McMullin, was
renteuced on last Saturday by Judge
Paxton to pay a fine of $1 000, and un
dergo in imprisonment in the State Pen
itentiary for a period of six years and
nine month -
Marra, after tbe sentence, declared tbat
McMullin and others were the parties
who urued him to shoot Hrnoks Query
W bo stands behind McMullin. Tbe
citizens of Philadelphia should not rest
until the matter has been wsuisfactorily
silted. The Pi n speaks of tbe confes
sion as follows :
A glimpse of the) nether side of Phila
delphia is ataded in the confession of
the ft How 'ftlana, priuted in the
this moru'ng. It shows us the profes
sional politician, aain. burglar, and
thief in the most vivid color. There
are, it appears from this document, a
band of lawless, reckless men in this
city, banded together by the closest of
ties, who will murder a man for the small
sum of two hundred dollars. TlrS only
question now ia their extermination. It
ean be done by punishment. This gang
should be bronght to trial. If they are
not, we may expect assassination to be
come one of the leading industries f the
city. Our authorities an surely not
airaid to prosecn-e these men.

a shocking manner. Her clothes were
literally burnt off her persou, aud all
parts of her body were more or less in

next morning, after suffering the most
excruciating pain.
A younger sister of the unfortuuate
