1 i V J ,ttV0ttltt Henrj A. Parsons, Jr., - Editor THURSDAY, JULY 17, 1879. Republican State Convention. The Republicans of Pennsylvania, aud all others In favor of an Honest Currency and the faithful discharge of National Obligations, and opposed to Communism and the Restoration to Power in the National Government of the Influences which produced the Re bell ion of 1801, are requested to send delegates apportioned to their repre sentation in the Legislature, to a Con- vention to meet at Harrisburg, at 12 M. on the 23d day of July next, to nominate a candidate for State Treas urer, and transact such other business as may be brought before it. M. S. QUAY, Chair man State Committee. Philadelphia, June 9, 1879. The summer excursions which the patriotic Democratic Senators voted themselves will cost the Gov' eminent from $00,000 to $75,000, aC' cording to the smallest estimates. The people of the United States pay $700,000,000 a year for spirituous and fermented liquors, $95,500,000 for education Ond $48,000,000 for religion. And yet we delight to brag that this is a Christian land. Mrs. Sarah A. Horsey, of Missis, sippi, has just died, leaving her prop' erty to JefF Davis, and reproving her countrymen for their failure to recog' nize his service and sacrifices. The legacy puts Davis in comfortable cir cumstanees. A Bridegroom at Grinnel, Iowa received a cigar by mail, accompanied by the written assurance that it would be found of an uncommonly good flavor. The bride recognized the handwriting as that of a rejected suitor, and unrolled the cigar, to find several grains of strychnine in the end that a smoker would bite off. Marvin Banning, before dying at Hadlyme, Conn., told where $3,000 could be found hidden in a bag of but ternuts, and that bonds to an equal amount were buried in a cellar. He was seventy-four, and for many years had deprived himself of sufficient food and tire. His sole diet was raw salt pork and coarse bread, and he lived by himself. His property goes to a needy sister. The commission selected to choose a monument for the grave of Gov ernor Geary in the Harrisburg Cem etry, decided to award the contract to George Starkey, of Serauton, who agreed to furnish a granite base six feet in width and a bronze statue the late Governor for $5,000. His de sign as before the commission contem plated a monument composed entirely of granite. The monument will be twelve and a half feet high. State elections will be held this year iu the following order: Kentucky, August 4, State officers and Legisla ture; California, September 3' State and judicial officers, four Congressmen and Legislature ; Maine, September 8, State officers and Legislature; Ohio and Iowa, October 7, State officers in part and Legislature. Maryland, Mas sachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin, November 3. Governors are elected iu all the States named except Mississippi, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. A Buffalo dispatch says : David D. V. Altaian, aged 18, a son of Abra ham Altman, president of the Third National Bank, a member of the Buf falo polo club, while starting in a prac tice game Saturday, was thrown from his horse, fracturing his skull, and since the accident has lain unconscious. No hopes of his recovery are enter tained. Altman was riding a horse that from its light build had been con demned, but he insisted on using it, althought weighing over 100 pounds. He had only become an active mem ber of the club this year, and was locked upon as a skillful poloist. He was preparing to enter college. A later dispatch says the young man died Sunday uight. The failures of farmers are becom ing alarmingly frequent in England. In 1870 they numbered 229; iu 1875, 354; in 1876, 480; in 1877, 477; in 1878, 815; audiu the first half of 1879, no fewer than 614. In addition, tiue facts are well known that farmers in many counties are now losing their capital, that landlords find great difficulty in reletting at any price, and that the re mission of rents have only met por tion of the difficulty. If the land of Eugland becomes less and less able to compete with that of other countries iu the growth of meat and cereal crops, the alteration in the conditions will have an effect not only on the persons immediately concerned, but on Eng land as a whole. The negroes in Jacksonville, Fla., are drawing the color line among themselves, and the Union of that city remarks : "Several colored men have complained to us about the formation of a society in this city whose member ship is to be composed of mulattoes ex clusively. No black men need apply. They also charge that the black chil dren are ostracized and often refused admittance into society by mulatto children under instructions from their parents. The Rev. Mr. Thomas last Sunday night made mention of the matter as the starting point for evil and a division among the colored race of this city. About five years ago the same subject agitated the colored pec- pie here, and at times they would meet, quarrel and fight over it iu the public streets." What Time Hath Wrought. From the Philadelphia Press. The death of Alanson Work at Hart ford, Connecticut, on the 6th inst., the advanced age of eighty-nine yeaw, recalls an meiuent in nis me which Illustrates the mighty change that has beeu wrought in public opln- on upon certain moral and political questions, within the last half century. Mr. Work when a young man cmi- granted from Connecticut to Illinois, and in 1835 located at the Mission In stitute on the cast bank of the Missis sippi, not far from Quincy, at that time an insignificant village. Slavery was an established institution on the other side of the river, and stories of cruelly frequently reached the cars of the anti slavery people at the Mission Institute. Mr. Wofk and two theological btudents formed a plan for crossing- the river and bringing away a slave family whose condition had touched their sympathies. By some means or other the Missouri authorities were apprised of the contemplated "raid" and when the three philanthropists crossed the river they were seized by a band of armed men, and, after suffering great indignities from the mob, they were committed for trial. In due time they were convicted of conspiring together to abduct slaves, and were sentenced to a term of twelve years' inprison meut in the Missouri State Penitentiary at Jefl'erson City. A mob of ruffians at tended the trial for the purpose of hanging the prisoners in the event of their acquittal. When the three "abolitionists" ar- rived at Jefferson City a great mob fol owed thein to the prison and hurled all manner of opprobrious epithets after them as they disappeared behind the gates. Mr. Work, being a consci- entious observer of the Sabbath, re- fused to shave himself on the first Sunday of his imprisonment, and for this breach of discipline the one side of his head was shaved and a ball and chain fastened to his ankle. On the following Sunday he still held out, and was severely lashed on the bare back No further attempt was made to conv pel him to act contrary to his consci entious convictions, and the prison authorities amended the rules so as to make Saturday shaving-day. There are not many men who would be will inir to be scouraarnd rather than shave on Sunday, but the early abolitionists had the spirit of the martyrs. After serving three years six months of his term of imprisonment Mr. Work was pardoned on the condition that he re turn to Connecticut. The two theo logical students were subsequent par doned, Mr. Burr after he had served four years and six months of his term and Mr. Thompson after he had served four years and eleven months. At the time these three conscien tious, pious and highly reputable gentlemen were sent to the Pen itentiary their punishment was justified by public sentiment not only in Missouri, but in Illinois and other free States. Governor Marmaduke, who, although a representative of the slaveholding oligarchy, was not des titute of humanity, paid a visit to Mr. Work in his prison and told him that he would pardon him, but public sen timent would not sustain him in such an act of clemency. Nevertheless, the Executive conscience was not entirely easy on the subject, and, as above started, the three philanthropic "con spirators" were pardoned by Governor Mormanduke's successor in office. Mr. Work returned to Connecticut and spent the remainder of his long life in his native State. His eldest son, Henry C. Work, is a song-writer of considerable .note. He is the author of a number of popular ballads, includ ing the famous battle-song of the colored troops, "Babylon is fallin'." Mr. Work lived to see his motive in crossing the Mississippi to rescue a slave- family from bondage fully vin dicated in the judgement of the whole civilized world. Death of Got. Allen, or Ohio. Cincinnati, July 11 Ex-Governor Wm. Allen died suddenly at his home near Chillicothe this morniug. Gov. Allen was born in Virginia and was in the neighborhood of seventy-five years old. His public services have been of avariedand valuable character having besides serving in the Legisla ture of his adopted State, served a full term in the United States Senate some thirty years ago. In 1873 he was nom inated and elected Governor of Ohio, and again in 1875 was renominated and after a gallant and vigorous fight was defeated by Mr. R. B. Hayes by a small plurality of between five and six thousand. His name was pre ssnted to the Democratic convention at St. Louis in 1878 as the choice of Ohio for President, aud though the vote of the State was cast for him, no great effort was made by himself or friends to secure the prize. On the expiration of his term as Governor on the 1st of January, 1876, he retired to the privacy of his comfortable home in Chillicothe, where he has since re mained, enjoying the comforts by which he was surrounded and the highest esteem of his fellow citizens throughout the State and nation. Charles Wolf, a resident of the village of Glen Hope, was killed at James Patterson's barn raising on Friday, June 27th. He was about 66 years of uge. His head was crushed by the falling of a "bent," and he died within two hours without uttering a word. He seems to have had a pre sentment of his fate. After agreeing tc-'go to the rising of the barn, he tried for several days to get a substi tute, but failed. Wheu inquired of why be did not want to go himself, he always replied that he was afraid something serious would happen, and that he had better not go. Clearfield Republican. Sketch of John A. Ninull. (From the Harrisburg Patriot) John Augustus Smull was born September 1, 1832, and consequently at the time of his death was nearly forty seven years of age and in the prime of life. He was the second of the three sons of John Smull and Harriet Paull who were of German ancestry. The father at the time of his death was proprietor of the Washington house, which stood on the site now occupied by the Jones house and was so called because General Washington had spent a night under its roof. John A. Smull whose death is now chronicled received a public school education and in his fourteenth year was apprenticed to the printer's trade in the office of the Harrisburg Telegraph, having de clined the appointment of midshipman in the navy at the desire of his parents. At the age of seventeen he succeeded to the position of page in the House of Representatives made vacant by the death of his brother Levan, and be came the sole support of his mother The appointment was made by the clerk of the house W. D. Jack, of Westmorelaud county. From this position he rose by the faithful and ef ficient performance of his duties to be bill clerk, bill and petition clerk, and at length created for himself the posi tion of resident clerk, an office which has now become a necessity to Penn sylvania legislatures. This position he filled with marked ability and suc cess until his death, -save during the session of 1875-6 when Major Elbridge McConkey occupied the desk. Not the lease considerable work of Mr Smull's life was the yearly compilation of "Smull s Legislative Hand book,'' a remarkably clear, condensed, yet full manual of all that pertains to parli mentary law and the business of the state legislature. Mr. Smull was for many yeara prom inently indentined with the Masonic fraternity of the state and held a num ber of positions of trust and responsi bility. He was also one of the found ers of Robert Burns lodge No. 4G4. Owing to his long connection with the legislature there is no man in the State better known or more highly re spected for warm courtesy of de meanor and genuine ability in the so lution of intricate parliamentary diffi culties than John A. Smull. and it is to be doubted if there has been a speaker of the house within the last twenty years who does not owe to him much of any success attained as presiding officer. As a generous brother and devoted son Mr. Smull has had few equals. To his friends he will always tne Kina, courteous, willing friend, a friend whom everyone sought and everyone valued. As a citizens he will be missed iu many ways. No man was more ready than he to give his time, energy and mens to the furtherance of any philanthropic scheme or any plan for the improvement of the city. The tears which will be shed when the last duties are paid to him and he is laid to rest In dreamless sleep forever beside his mother, whom he loved so well and cared for so faithfully, will not fall from the eyes of his relatives alone, but will come from a wide circle of our citizens, who have felt his benefactions, known his heart and loved his fellowship. The coining Republican State Con vention lias an important duty to per form. The Democracy are consider ing the advisability of adopting the "Ohio idea," and if it will increase their ehunces of carrying the State they will not hesitate to call not only Greenbackers but all other disorgan ganizing elements to their aid. The Republican party is responsible for the Greenback and since it became necessary for the Government to issue a promise to pay, the party has worked faithfully to bring it to par in gold 1 his has happily been accomplished, and is now the duty of the party to present an unbroken front in defense of the financial policy of the Govern ment and allow no "steps backward to be taken" in the Important matter, To this end the Republicans of each election district should meet together and instruct their committeemen to vote for no man for delegate to the State Convention who is not known to be a firm advocate of honest money, competent officials, and no stealings, Williamsport O. & B. Fatal Accident. Wm. S. Lininger, in the employ of Geo. i. Smith, residing up the Port- tage, near the Potter county line, started out Sunday evening, 6th inst., to watch a deer lick, taking his gun with him. The next morning, Lin inger not returning, Mr. Smith started to look for him, and after searching an hour, found him dead. Coroner Heil man was notified, and proceeded to hold an Inquest," when the following facts were brought to light : The deceased was iu the act of climb ing a tree, for the purpose of watch ing for deer, and drawing his gun up after him, when the gun (loaded with buckshot) was accidentiy discharged and the contents passed through his left thigh, midway betveen the knee and hip, making a hole about the size of a musket ball; thence through the outer edge of his left forearm, six in ches from his waist, and one or two shot passiug into the edge of the nose through the buck of the eye and into the brain, which must have caused in strant death. The body was found tin derneath the tree. The deceased was a young man, aged about twenty-three years, and unmarried. Cameron Prest.
