"This renders it unnecessary that I should

LOTTERY SCHEMES AND GIFT
ENTERPRISES.
Tho law enacts severe penalties to be itn
posed on persons engaged iu gambling,
whether by cards, dico, lottery, or by that
raoro transparent humbug and lottery
echemo, sometimes called a "gift enter
priso." For tho last four nights of this
week, beginning on Tuesday, tho second
Etory of tho Masonic llu'.l has been well
filled with anxious individuals, some no
doubt for the purpose of witnessing the few
mcagro performances of tho prestidigitator,
as ho calls himself, but the great majori
ty to indulge in tho gumo of chanco, for
which tho tricks of tho performer wcro used
as a mere cover. Tho prico of a single
ticket was 25 cents. Tickets with six
chances were sold at one dollar. Tho hold'
-er of the tickot, on entering tho Hall, re
ceived a small envelope in its stead, which
was cither a blank or indicated tho articlo
drawn against its number. Somo of tho
green ones purchased as many as twenty to
thirty tickets, during tho evening.
Tho dcsiro to sco tho show was soon
merged iu tho more exciting game of chance,
with no certainty whatever that tho coveted
chance was even a fair ono. FuftTUuro and
other articles wcro distributed, as well as
somo greenbacks, though it is more than
suspected that the big prizes were drawn by
previous arrangements. At a former exhi
bition, several months since, it is said the
prestidigitator awarded tbo big prizes in
proportion to tho amount of his indebted
ness to tho lucky drawers.
When all other means fail tho gnmo of
chanco is sure to draw full houses. Such is
human nature. Whether these things should
bo encouraged, or tho laws enforced, is a
question for moralists.
General Kiicrldun Removed.
Washington, Aug. 19, 1807.
Tho President this ufternoou scut an order
to Qenoral Grant, as acting Secretary of
War, directing him to relieve Oenerul Sheri
dan as Commander of tho Fifth Military
District, and to transfer General CI. II.
Thomas to tho vacancy. Tho President fur
ther directed that General Sheridan bhould
be ordered to tho Department of Missouri
and Kansas, and General Hancock to the
Department of the Cumberland. Before the
Adjutant-General was directed to frame an
order in accorduneo with these instructions,
General Grant proceeded to tho White
Hoiihc and cotiterred with the President ro
latiug to tho transfer of General Hancock,
whoso presence on tho pluin.3 in connection
with tho Indian troubles, General Grant
thinks should not bo interfered with. Tho
President ncquiesced, nnd it is probable
that when tho olHeiul order is issued Geucri.1
Hancock will not bo disturbed. Tho regu
lar order of superacduro will bo issued to
morrow. This chuiifro has been anticipated
so long that it does not create much excite
ment. It appears that tho movement to get Se
cretary MeC'ulloeh outof thoTiea3ury comes
principally from New York. Tn-cluy, seve
ral Hew York Democrats had nn interview
with tho Prcaidrut, nnd urgod him utrongly
to request tho Secretary to resign. Tho
President, however, authorized tho Agent
of tho Associated Press to telegraph last
night that tho relations between tho Execu
tive and tho Cabinet wcro of tho most cour
teous and friendly character, and that flicre
was no prospect of any chauge. This may
bo taken as an authoritativo answer to the
oulbido efforts to effect a'chango.

r PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRACY '
Tho address of tho Democratic Stato Com
mittee of Pennsylvania has ono merit it is
short. , But, brief as it is, It contains almost
as many false assertions at sentences, and is
a specimen of tho vory worst kind of politi
cal trickery. All the ovils of the war the
loss of life, taxation, debt, high prices, pa
per currency aro enumerated as tho direct
work of the Republican party. Not n word
is said of tho Rebellion. Wo wonder what
stuffa Democratic Stato Committee can be
mado of which gravely submits such an ar
gument ns this to tho people
. It la truo that wo have a great debt, which
bears as heavily upon Republicans as on
Democrats j it is true that wo are severely
taxed to pay it ; it is truo that prices arc
high, that the currency is depreciated.' All
this wo know and lament ; but it is also
true that wo owo theso evils, firet, to tho
Rebels, and second, to tho Dcmocratio par
ty, and wholly to their combined efforts to
destroy tho Union. It scorns almost absurd
to repeat theso truths, for no ingenuity will
ever conceal tho great fact that tho South
rebelled, that tho Democratic party sympa
thized with rebellion; and that the Repub
lican party directed and maintained the
War for tho Union, and brought it to a tri
umphant end. It is notorious that tho Re
publican party directed and maintained the
Wur lor tho tuion, ana brought it to a tri
umphant end. It is notorious tlmt tho . Re
bels depended for aid upon tho Democratic
party ; that tho official action ot that party
wits bailed in the boutli as an encourage
ment to persist in rebellion ; that if it had
not boen for Democratic opposition tho war
would havo ended ycare, perhaps, before it
did, and that tho debt and all our national
evils would now be immeasurably less. There
is nothing plainer than that tho Democratic
party next to tho Rebels is resuontlblo
for tho war and tho misfortunes that havo
followed it. Wo repeat, therefore, that to
compare the rate ot taxation in ibou witu
the rate in 1800. in proof that the Rcpubli
can party has mismanaged the finances,
without a word of reference to tho war, is
oimply tho meanest kiud of political trickery
and certain to dumngo tho causo it was
meant to help. This address is insulting to
tho intelligence of tho reader, and a slander
of tho North, for tho Republican party and
the North thrcuchout tho war were ono and
indivisible. It is all tho loyal States that
this Democratic Committee accuses oi tyran
ny, and hatred, and corruption.

Correspondence of the Bu Louia Democrat.
Omatio, Nebraska, August 8. Despatches
forwarded early iu the 'afternoon to tho
olHco of the superintendent of tho Union
Pacitlc Railroad, announced that the dead
bodies of the engineer, llrookes liowers,
and tho fireman, Geo. Hcnshaw, would bo
brought to this city, and would probably
arrive at 4 o clock l M. rue news spread
liko wildfire through tho city, and as tho
hour of their arrival approached a largo
crowd ot men aud boys assembled, it poesi
bio, to catch a glimpse of the remains of
tho unfortunate nieu who but a fow hours
previous left Omaha in the primo of their
manhood on their usual duties, iho train
arrived punctual to its time.
On tho Bamo train was a man named
William . Thomson, a native of England
who turned out to be ono of tho telegraph
repairers, reported killed. Ho attracted a
great deal of attention from the very
extraordinary fact that tho covering for tho
head, which nature had so kindly endowed
him with, was ul sent. Pcoplo flocked
from all parts to view tbe gory, ghastly
ba duoss which had come upon hitn so sua
deuly, without any preuioiutory symptoms,
Tho poor fellow suffered horribly, if we
migUtjudgo by bis lacial contortions, lie
seemed weak from loss of blood. Ho had
received a gaping wound in tho neck, and a
bullet in his right arm. Ho was taken to
the Hamilton House and a physician was
sent lor, who attended to bis wounds, in
a pail of water was his Bcalp, about nine
inches in length, and four in width, some
what resembling a drow ned rat, as it float
cd, curled up. on the water. His statement
which we have been at some paius to get
accurately, is as follows :
About nine o'clock Tuesday night myself
and lave others lctt Plum Creek station and
Btartod up the track on a band-car to hunt
up where tho ureas in the telegraph was.
When we cauio to where tho break proved
to be wo saw a lot ot ties piled ou tho track,
but at tho same moment Indians jumped up
irotu the crass all around und bred on US.
Wo fired two or thrco shots in return, and
then, as the Indians pressed on us, we ran
away. Au Iudian ou a pony singled me out
aud galloped up to me. After coming to
within ten left ot mo be bred, tbe bullet en
tering my right arm ; seeing me still run, ho
clubbed his riilu and kuocked me down. He
then took out his knife, stabbed me in the
neck, aud then making a twirl round his
fingers with my hair, he commenced sawing
uud hacking away at my scalp.
Though the pain was awful, and I felt
dizzy and eick, I knew enough to keep
quiet. After what seemed to bo half an
hour he gavo the last finishing cut to the
scalp on my left temple, and as it still hung
a little be gavo it a jerk. I jus( thought
then that 1 could bavo screamed my iito out.
I can't desci ibo it to you. It just felt as if
tho whole head was taken rignt off. The
Indiau then mounted and calloped away,
but as he went he dropped my scalp within
a few feet of mo, which I mauaged to get
und hide. Tho Iudiaus wcro thick m the
vicinity, or I theu might have nmdu my
escape. While Iviut down I could hear the
Indians movinz around, whispering to each
other, and then shortly after placing ob
structions on tho truck. Alter lying Uown
about an hour and a half I heard the low
rumbling of tho tram us it camo tearing
along, and I might bavo boen ablo to flag it
off hud I dared.
Tho engineer and fireman wcro shot and
scalped, but beforo tho Indians burut the
train they plundored tho box cars of every
luiuK inui luigm provo or tbo least value
or what attracted their flcklo fancy. They
decorated their pcrsous by tho bonfiio which
they mado of the boxes already plundered,
their ponies wcro caparisonod with gaudy
pieces oi musiin, ami iiicir tans wero adorn
cd with ribbons of variogated colors. Tho
scalp locks of tho Iudians were adorned in
the samo manner, while hanging over their
shoulders wcro rich pieces of velvet.
Borne of them came across a barrel of old
Bourbon whisky. Quickly they stove the
head,and quickly they quaffod huge draughts
of tho tiro-water, which sot their brain on
firo and renderod them delirious. A violent
war fcoug was chanted while they wore thus
luobriateu wiui furious getiouluUous, tn
uonor ot tuo victory achieved over the pal
faces. , At day-break they eat fire to tho
wreck, taking tiro from tho furnace aud
throw mg it iu the boxcars, und while tho
flames roared and crackled at the wind
came ou, aud reared themselvei into pyra
mtds and tall-cpiral columns, tho Indians
danced and bold high carnival.
' The doad bodies were thrown into the
fire and terrible yell, announced, to the
calncd and trembling man the fat of the
engineer and fireman. 'Louder yelled the
Indians as the firo raged fm its terrible
work, and as tho stench of the hitman
holocaust spread, it seemed to give-intense
satisfaction to the tawny devils. The Indi
ans saw their work iully accomplished, and
then left.
Thompson mannaod to crawl away,- and
found refuge at Willow Island station,, until
ho was taken care of by a party sent for
him, when ho was brought to this city.

For the American j
DEATH OP JUDGE ARMSTRONG
MEETING Oi' THE BAR.
At a meeting of the Bench and Bar of
Northumberland county, held in the Court
House at bunbury, immediately after the
adjournment of the court on the 14th day
of August, 1867, tho Hon. Alexander Jor
dan, President Judge, announced the death
of tbo Hon. James Armstrong, of Williams
port, Lycoming county, in this (Sth) Judi
cial District.
Judgo Jordan said : Associated with the
learned nnd distinguished deceased for a
long period of years, ho was able to bo wit
ness to his wisdom, worth and industry to
his learning in the science of jurisprudence
to his fidelity in the pcrformauce of the du
tics of pleader, advocate and judge; to his
love for truth, and tho purity and iutcgrity
of his character. Ho thought it proper that
this Bar should suitably record their esti
mate ot bis worth.
On the motion of J. B. Packer, Esq., tho
Hon. A. Jordan, was called to preside, and
C. J. liruncr.i.30., was made becretary.
Mr. Pucker said, death has closed the la
bors of a wiso and good muu; a long life of
practical usctulncss is ended at tbe scpul
chrc. It is our melancholy duty to give
utterance to expressions of friendship ; aud
profitable to contemplate tbe example which
his life has given us. Mr. Packer spoke of
tbo Iong.and successful lilo of tho deceased
a life, he said, of marked consistency ; pre
senting a combination of estimable quahtii-i
which had secured the confiduueo and
esteem of his follow citizens, and tho venera
tion and love of those who enjoyed the inti
macy of close tricndship. While wo rcmcui
bered his multiplied virtues, we might well
labor to make them part of our own posses
sions ana enjoyments.
Juo. Kay Clement, Esq., moved that
committee of five persons bo uppointcd to
prepare resolutions cxprcssivo of the esteem
und respect of this meeting for the memory
of tho deceased. Whereupon the President
appointed Jno. Kay Clement, J. li. Packer.
Geo. Hill, S. P. Wolverton and O. Reimen
snyder, Esqrs., to bo such committee.
Uaviug retired for a briof period, the
committee returned to tho meeting and re
ported as follows :
. The Court and Bar of Northumberland
county have learned with deep regret tbo
death of tho Hon. JAMES ARMSTRONG,
ot JLycoming county; while we yield an
humble submission to the will of Him whoso
ways are just and true, and the "habitation
of whoso seat are righteousness and judg
ment," wo consider it our solemn duty pub
licly to express that siucere feeling of sor
row which has filled our hearts, therefore it
is
Resolved unaninumtHy, let. That, in the
decease of the Hon. James Armstrong, we
have lost one whose placo cannot easily be
supplied. During a period of (nearly) fifty
years bo labored at the Bar and on the Bench
with eminent ability, industry and success;
ever exhibiting those rich ami sterling qual
ities of head and heart which adorn the
Christian tbe Patriot, the jurist and citizen.
In his intercourse with his clients, ho was
patient, frank and unassuming ; and they
always relied upon him with unwavering
faith, and spoke of him as courteous, sin
cere and skillful. As a Judgo he was learn
ed both in principles and cases, and prompt
in their application. It was bis delight to,
sustain the hopes and protect the feelings
of young and timid counselors while he
never failed in respect to the aged. Such,
indeed, was the true dignity of Ids deport
ment and his whole character as a lawyer,
a judge, and a christian gentleman; such
tho urbanity of his manners ; tbe kindness
of bis heart, such the uprightness and puri
ty of his conduct, and his scrupulous fideli
ty in tho diBchurgo of every duty and every
trust, that be could not fail to secure the
respect of his follow-citizens, tbe regard of
bis clients, tbo confidence of the Court, the
friondsbip of the Bar, the approbation of
his own heart, and leave, for imitation and
emulation, a life marked as a consistent
whole, with no irregularity of proportion.
Always active in works of virtue, benevo
lenco and usefulness, his memory will be
cherished by his fullow-cititens with affec
tion, by the Court and Bar with reverenoe,
by his personal associates with love. In the
circle of borne it can only be forgotten when
memory shall perish. .
8d. We kinoerely sympathise and condole
with his bereaved and alllietod family, rela
tives and friepds. Their grief is our grief ;

UNIONPACiFIC
RAILROAD COMPANY,
THEIR
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
AS AN INVESTMENT.
THE rapid progress of tho Union Pacific Railroad,
now building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and form
ing, with Its western connections, an unbroken line
across the continent, attract attention to the valuo
of tho First Mortgage Bonds which the Company now
offer to tho public Tbe first question askod by pru
dent investors is, "Are these bonds secure?" Next,
' Are they a profitable investment?" To reply in
brief:
Int. Tho early completion of the whole great lino
to tho Pacifio is as certain as any future busiiiesi
event can be. Ihe uovernment grunt ot over t wen -I
ty million acres of land and fiAy million dollars in
its own oonua practically guarantees it. una fourth
of tho work is already done, and tbo track continues
to be laid at the rato of two miles a day.
2d. The Union Pacifio Railroad bonds are inucd
upon what promises to be one of the most profitable
lines of railroad in tbo country. For many years it
must be the only lino connecting tbe Atlantic and
Pacific ; and being without competition, it can
maintain remunerative rates.
3d. 42i miles of this rood are finUbod, and fully
cquippod with dopota, locomotives, cars, Ac, and
two trains are daily running each way. The mate
rials for the rerauining 92 miles to the eastern bnso
of tbo Kooky Mountains aro on band, and it is undor
coutrnct to bo done in September.
4th. Tbe net earnings of tbo scotions already fin
ished are several times greater than tbe gold interest
upon tho First Mortgage Bonds upon suob sections,
uud if not another mile of the road were built, tho
purt already completed would not only pay interest
aud expenses, but be profitable to the Company.
5th Tbe Union Pacifio Railroad bonds can bo is
sued only as the rood progresses, and therefore cuu
never be in the market unless they represent a bona
JStie pniperty.
otn. ineir amount is strictly limited bylaw ton
sum equal to what is granted by tbe U.S. Uovern
ment, and tor wnicn 11 take a second lien as it se
curity. This amount upon the first 617 miles west
from Oinaba is only 10,000 per mile.
7th. The foot that tbe U. S. Uovernment considers
a second lien upon the road a good investment,
and tbat some of the shrewdest railroad buildors of
the country have already paid in five million dollars
upon the stock (which is to them a third lion), may
well inspire confidence in a first lion.
8tb- Although it is not claimed that thcro can bo
any better securities than llovornmonts, thero nro
parties who oonsider a first mortgage upon such a
property as this the very best security in the world,
and who sell their Governments to re-invest in theso
bonds thus tecuring a greater interest.
Vth. As the Union Pacifio Railroad bonds aro of
fered lor tbe present at V0 cent on tbe dollar and ao
orucd interest, they are tbe cheapest socurity in thu
market, being more than 15 por cent, loss thou U. S.
Slocks.
- 10th. At lb current rate of premium on gold, they
pay
Over Nine Per Cent. Interest,
