STJNBTJRY, JANUARY 0, 1872.
CotfftT. At the opening of Court on
Moudny last, there wns probably a much
larger number of persons in attendance than
'tit any former term for many ycart. The
large court room was filled by parties at
tending court and mnnywlw came here
through curiosity to see his Hon. Judge
ttockcfeller assume the duties of his office.
The Judge's chargo to the Grand Jury,
which will be found in this issue, was re
'ceived with great satisfaction by all parties.
The charge, it will be seen is ably written,
besides it shows that the Judge intends
business from the start, and gives trans
gressors of the law to understand that they
must ceaso as ho will enforce the law to its
fullest extent. Evil-doers and law breakers
will have but a narrow chance of escape
with a light sentence if brought before him.
The mauner sentences were passed during
the past week, it cannot be said that he is
in any way partial, as he deals out justice
to all alike. The people from all parts of
the county appear to Iks well satisfied that
the right man has been chosen to fill that
position, find that the place of his worthy
predecessor is ably lilted.
Thk editor of the Gazette has becomo
Irritated at our remarks on "Fatcnt Out
sides," and alleges that he is saving money
by having his paper printed In New York
city. Since J .ihu had to relinquish the of
fice of State Superintend M.t of public print
ing, he has discovered probably that pay
ing for his white paper is not as easy os get
ting it gratis, nor do we hear him boast so
much about tlio best quality. lie has be
come decidedly moderate on that mibjcct,
nnd only, occasionally, do wo hrarh'mi cry
out '"largest circulation." 'Whether our
neighbor includes any other Xew York
papers iu his "Largest Circulation," we are
unable to fa)', as by the late plan that
establishment has become somewhat mix
ed. It is very probable that John would
never have enlarged his paper had he
thought tho State Superintendency would
some day cease. AVe foe! sorry for our
neighbor, that he is compelled to show a
dificieney in enterprise, for it does not
look well for an ex-superiutendent to get
his paper edited and printed in New York
when it might be done at home.
As our neighbor advises us to mind our
own business, and purchase our printing
paper, on which the Ameuican is printed,
at home, we take pleasure in assuring him
that we have long endeavored to do so, and
procure our paper from. Messrs. Murray,
'& Co., of this place, who have it manu
factured at Cattawlssa, the nearest paper
-mill to this place.
Fou many years past liquors of various
'kiuds were iutroducc-d in tashionablc fami
lies on New Year's day iu the cities, until J
the evil became alarming when all the New
York papers advised the banishment of
"wine at the receptions usual to New Year
:iu that city, where it is a well known fact
' the social custom had become a source of
i fearful contamination, and that many a
: poor wretch dated his entrance on a ca
' ;-eer of wroug and shame to the wine cup
put in his hands on New Year's day call.
The very fact that the press of that city so
unanimously demanded the banishment of
the dram bottle from tho side boards of
private-houses, proves to what an extent
the mischief had grown or it would not be
thus sternly attacked.
It has bceu estimated that more than
three-fourths of the drunkards of tho pres--c-nt
day, were induced to their first diam
lia fashionable familieg at social gatherings.
Commissioners' Clk;ik.A majority of
the Couuty CominUsioners, we learn, have
agreed to retain the clerk of that office for
nnother year. It is a pity that the Com
missioners cannot find a jitrson who is com
petent to till the office. After the people of
tho couuty are ir.ade couversant with some
of Uie transactions in the Commissioners'
flllce, it will uot relieet much credit upon
them for their choice, nor does it show that
they are endeavoring to remedy some
of the evils about the Court House.
Our neighbor of the Democrat is in a
terrible stato of mind in regard to his
friends, Pat Hester and Iioss Tweed. The
thost of Floyd appears to haunt him, a. id
he has become; fearful llmi 1 ss Tweed will
receive his just dm s, and that it would
greatly interf iv with IV t Hester' prospects
for She-nil, particularly as Pin's sins are
fmding hint out. Wo are sorry for our
neighbor, as the loss of these two worthies
would, uo doubt, materially interfere with
him in guiding t!iu modern Democracy of
this county.

TnE Governor's Message. The mes
sage of Governor Geary, which is furnished
to our subscribe! in an extra is quite lengthy
and all who read it will bo favorably im
pressed as being an able document. The
Governor starts out by reminding the
Legislators that having for a time separa
ted themselves from private business and
personal interests to act In a legislative
capacity for the Interos's of more than three
and a half millions of people, it becomes
them to advance to the discharge of their
duties "with minds untainted with party
acrimony, unswayed by selfish or interested
motives, and with fervent aspirations of
praise and gratitude to the Great Preserver
of nations, State and individuals," to im
plore "His guidance and approbation in
the accomplishment of the task assigned."
The finances are represented as in good
condition. The receipts into the Treasury
during tho year ending November 30, 1871,
were $8,500,888 44 ; disbuisemeuts, $7,
024,079 85 ; leaving a balauce of 81,470,
808 59 in tho Treasury at tho close of the
fiscal year.
The public debt, November 30, 1S71,
amounted to 21,980,071 83 ; the funded
debt being 628.800,143 10, aud tho un
funded, $113,920 57.
Deduct nmount iu Sinking Fund, S9,
400.000, and balance in Treasury ,81,407,
808 59, making $10,870,808 59,and there
remains of the public debt unprovided for
?lrt,103,273 14.
The Stato has issued certificates of loan
amounting to 299,748 01 for relief of
citizens of Chambcrsburg and vicinity, &c,
which certificates bear six per cent, inter
est, payable at tlu Treasury semi-annually-
Sinoo the lbt of December, 1S0G, there
has liccn paid of the public debt the sum of
$8,724,338 and during the year ending
30th November List, the amount of debt
redeemed was $2,131,590 17.
Tho amount of loans now over-due is
$2,592,095 1(1, which can be paid as rapid
ly as presented to the Commissioners of
the jinking Fund. There nre $3,870,400
00 of tho debt payable in 1872, and de
mandablo in 1877, which call ho paid with
in tho five years previous to their maturity,
at an annual average ef $775,880.
It is earnestly desired that the Legisla
ture take up and pass the appropriation bill
at an early period in the session, so as to
give the Executive ample time to thorough
ly examine it.
A considerable portion of the message is
devoted to " War Claims," the appoint
ment and transactions of George O. Evans,
special agent, &c, and the "Credit Mobi
lier." In regard to Congressional Apportion
ment, a duty which will devolve on the
present Legislature, the Governor "be
speaks for it that careful and patriotic
consideration which is required by the
manitudo of the interests involved."
The balance of tho message is devoted to
tho Milford and Matamoras railroad Com
pany, Education, National Guard Writs
of Error in Criminal Cases, Proclamations
for Elections, Railroad Consolidations,
Capitol and Capitol Grounds, Codification
of tho Laws, Coal Mines, Compulsory
Vaccination, A Slate Board ot Health,
Removal of tho Quarantine, Tho Powder
Magazine, Public Charities, in Memoriam
(in which lie renders a proper tribute to
the menioiy of Hon. George Council, Hon.
David Stanton and J. W. Dickersou, Esq.),
Pardons, Commutation of Imprisonment,
and General Remarks. Uuder tho last
head the Governor takes occasion to reiter
ate his hostility to the "obnoxious doctrine
of free trade" and his uncharged senti
ments in favor of protection ta American
industry.
Hon, James Pollock has made his annual
report of tho operations of the Mint and
branches for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1871 :
The deposits of bullion of the mint and
branches during the fiscal year were as fol
lows : Gold, $3 1,054.202 20 : silver 5,970,
9S2,54 ; total deposits, $43,030,184 80.
Deducting from this total the rcdt-posits, or
bars m ide at one branch of tho Mint nnd
reilepo&ited in another for coinage, tho
amount will be $3.1,137,404 13.
For the same period the coiuago was as
follows : Gold coin, number of pieces, 1.
120,010 ; value, $21,302,473 ; imparted aud
lino gold bars, Sl3,10l,US'J 41; silver coin,
pieces, 3,004,792 ; value, tl.'.I.VjJOo 2") ;
silver bars, 3,544,190 13 ; uiekio copper
nnd bronze, pieces, 11,072,7"HJ ; value,
$283,700; total nuinbur ol pieces struck,
10.458 ,438 ; total value of coinage, 4',187,
409.80. The continued suspension of specie pay
ments retracts the work of the Mint aud
the amount ot coiu.iL'c. The capacity of
the Mint and branches to do all the coinage
required is ample.
The Director believes from discoveries
and developments in the Wcbleru States
and Territories, that before another decade
the annual production of gold and silver in
the United Males will be tuore than dou
bled. The I) irector proposce to have prepared
such devices as may improve the general
appearance of our coius, retaining their
geueral characteristics, to be used, if ap
proved, in uationa! coinage.
The Director refers to several subjects of
interest, embracing abruded, coins as a
legal tender, token silver coinage, counter
foil and imitation coins, re lining by chlo
rine, tho humid essay of hilver, etc.
The report is interesting throughout.
The present indications are that uo se
rious combination can bo effected against
the re-election of Geu. Grant, and those
who had hopes of accomplishing something
in that direction, are giving it up. Of
course the republicans opposed to Grant
would support uo one but an ultra Repub
lican, while thu masses of the Democrats
would probably vote for Graut if such a oue
Ware his opponent. So, worry aud trouble
might as well be avoided by all going in for
Grant.
Governor Walker, of Virginia, has vetoed

"What tiih West Claims, The Pitts
burg Gazette gives expression to what is
probably tho general feeling of the Republi
cans in the western section of the States in
regard to the candidates for Governor,
Auditor General and United States Sena
tor. Tho Gazette lays claim for the West
to the-United Stales Senator, provided Gen.
Cameron is not a candidate for re-election
and also insinuates that pretentions will
be put forward from that quarter for Go
vernor and Auditor General. It is most
likely our friends over the Alleghenics will
agree with the Gazette to bo satisfied with
two of the offices. Thatls a matter, how
ever, which the Republican State Conven
tion and the Legislature must settle and
they will no doubt do it in a manner satis
factory to all sections. Tho following is
tho Gazette article to which we have allud
ed: TIIE STATE CANVASS.
Tho canvass for the Republican nomina
tion for successorshin to Gov. John W.
Geary has commenced in right good earn
est, and Jhe very interesting work ofsalte
making, and suite breaking goes on with
much nuiinntiou in politicial circles. The
names of many good and truo men have
been mentioned in connection with the
honor, and judging from the outlook, we
feel confident that the material for a wor
thy standard bearer in the important com
ing campaigti will not lie difficult to find.
The question of geographical allotment has
been already raised, the western end of tho
State claiming the ownership of the office
for the next term. This seems to us just
at this time a question that is u little previ
ous, lis solution can best bo solved when
the office, of Auditor Geueral shall have
been filled. Iu selecting for it tho lamented
Dr. Stanton, of Heaver, a right was grantetl
tho western counties by the party. Should
his successor bu choseu also from tho west,
then the east can with good grace ask for the
Governorship. Until after the legislature
shall nreel there can hardly bo any correct
prophecy made as to the political situation
regarding Republican candidacy in Penn
sylvania. So far as we are concerned, and
we feel assured that we arc not alone iu the
matter, we shall be contented with the
Auditor Generalship and satisfied with the
selection of tho candidate for Governor
from the East, but we insist that it is a
right nnd just claim that we now put for
ward for the next United States Senator
provided, however, that our illustrious
present representative, Ilou. Simon Came
ron, adheres to his determination not to
ninin permit his name to bo used as a can
didate. J lis long and distinguished ser
vice lift liini outside of cither the cast or
west and make him the properly of no
section nut that ot tlio w holo people ot the
Commonwealth, and a statesmen in whom
the en t ne nation claim a right ol ownership.
Hence in the event of his continued refusal
to be a candidate for re-clectiou we shall
claim, in behalf of the western end of the
State, h s successor. Tho counties this
side of the Alleghenics have contributed
their full share of work in maintaining the
Republican supremacy of the State, and
have as impoitaut interests iu national af
fairs as they ol'th,, other side, and are un
doubtedly entitled to the next Senator. In
all sincerity we say to our eastern political
friends, parcel out ami distribute other State
ojjiees n inii may, but the irofirn Jlcpubli
eanx trill demand at iour hands the election
of an United States Senator out of thci" own
number. This demand is fairaiid just, nnd
no good reason can exist why it should not
be complied wilh iu all graciousuess and
good temper.
Democratic Cain mule.
Tho New York Tina, of ihu 13th inst.,
in an able article, shows up the talsily of
many of the accusations against General
Grant which tho Democratic papers are
cons'.iit-tly repealing. These defauieis of
the President have published these false
broils i.o often that at last they almost be
lieve them true, and there is danger of
honest men tailing iuto the same error.
One of the charges against the President
is that "he went into ollico comparatively
a poor man and is now a millionaire."
That ho is not a millionaire is ehovru by
the fact that his income, outside of his
official giWnry does not exceed six thousand
dollars a year. "His principal property,"
says the Times, "is his farm ot six or seven
buiid'-ed acres lu-nrM. .Louis, parlol which
was iuheriled by Mis. Grant. The re
mainder was bought by Geu. Giant from
the oilier heirs, out of tho one hundred
thousand dollars given lo hint by tho citi
zens of New York b'J'orc he became Presi
dL'iit." Another ofl.no numberless fabrica
tions set alloat by the New 1'urv Cioi ami
eagerly re pea leu by other Democratic
journals, is that ihe President's Loug
JSrauch coltaL'o was a present from Mr.
Murphy. Sut a dollar's u-orth of property
has bten ijuiii Geu. Grant since he became
1'risnhnt. Tho Sun has also repeatedly
printed a list of iwcnty-iivo "relations"
whom Giant has appointed to office uuder
hiiDnelt. I !.e Tunis has investigated the
mutter and ;is the list in question is false
iu every particular. Of the tweuty-livo so
called relations, sixteen are in no way re
lated tohhn ; three of the others received
llicir !ipohjimonls from Johnson, and were
continued in otlice by iVsiileiil Graut.
"As to ihe objection to Gen. Grant's
course on public ailiiirs," says the Times,
"we do not lU'ol'eia to answer them now :
wo merely re)eat our own opinion, that iu
the main his policy is a sound, wise, aud
benetlcial oue. A man ol purer private
life thuu Gen. Grant uever occupied ihe
Presidential chair, is il just is it worthy
of ihu President's pobitiou, or of this great
nation that he- tdiuuu.1 be called to account
at any moment by every disappoiuted office
seeker who chooses to iuveut a new slan
der ngaiust him 'i W'j have replied to
these charges because, by constant repeti
tion, they might have imposed upon credu
lous niiuds. The more thoroughly they
are siflt d. tho more shamefully false aud
iiialieioLs they will appeltr. We believe
that the majority of the people look upon
tin so calumnies with indignation. They
have inado thousands of friends for the
President among that quiet and thoughtful
class of tho commuuity which rarely busies
itself actively in politics, but which ad
mires pluck aud silence in public men,
which IiuUjs to see injustice done, aud which
despises the cowards who try touudormine
a public reputation by detaining private
character. Whatever rejected ollico-se'ck-ers,
like the calumniators of tho Sun, may
do or say. tho gteat majoiity of the Ameri
can people are lovers of fair play ; the do
test slanderers aud liars ; and they will
liouor Gen. Grant all the more because ho
goes on steadfastly doing their work, in
disregard of the insults aud taunts of men
who hale him because he will uot yield to
their demauds."

did the indignation i nn against him that
an immense enm-ourm- of peoplo assembled
around the jail iu which he had been lodged
for the purpose of meeting out summary
punishment. Tho military were called
upon to aid the police in preserving tho
good order of tins cit. and the dignity of the
law. The excitement continued to increase
until about nine o'clock iu tho evening,
when the military tired upon tho citizens,
killing, at least, two of tho latter aud
wounding several. Despatches received
after uii'iuight indicate that the trouble had
then not yet ended.
