making out deeds, transferring documents, and
doh like.
MEETING TO StIiTAIN THE NATIONAL GOVERN
MENT:4R pursuance of- notice given in the news
papers, one of the largest' assemblages ever con
vened in this city met at the County Court House
for the purpose of giving expression to the views
of the citizens of this and the surrounding com
munity, in relation to our present National diffi
culties.
The meeting was opened in a few preliminary
and patriotic remarks by A. Jackson Herr, Esq.,
upon whose motion his Honor, the Mayor, William
H. Kepner, was called to the Chair, and Judge
Dock, Frederick Trace, and some thirty others were
chosen Vice Presidents, with the necessary num
ber of Secretaries.
A committee to draft resolutions was appointed,
consisting of fifteen persons, when
William H. Welsh, Senator from York, was called
upon, and addressed the meeting ably and effectu
ally, taking the ground that it was no. longer a
question of party, but that as the issue of whether
we have or have not tt Government had been thrust
upon us, it was the duty of every geed citizen to
come forward and renew his fealty to the General
Government, by giving to that Government his
whole and entire support, without any reservations.
Mr. W's remarks were enthusiastically received. ,
William H. Armstrong, of Lycoming county,
followed, and was greatly cheered, as was R. A.
Lamberton, Esq., who succeeded.
Wm. B. Sipes, of the Sentinel, reported a series
of resolutions, which, together with the resolve of
the House of yesterday, were adopted. The reso
lutions, of which we could not obtain a copy,
breathed a warm spirit of devotion to the Consti
tution and the Union.
A. Boyd Hamilton moved that Gen. B. C. Wil
liams, Capt. L S. Waterbury, and Maj. L. N. Ott ,
be appointed a committee to collect funds to enter
tain the soldiers whilst in town, preparatory to be
ing taken into service, remarking that as a general
thing they generally were not persons who were
possessed of overly much of this world's goods,
and closed by saying he would give fifty dollars.
Others said the same thing, and the motion was
agreed to.
The meeting then adjourned, but another was
forthwith improvised, and Col. James Worrall made
a patriotic speech, with a little about our present
difficulties, and a good , deal about a late election,
the causes thereof, ana the Constitutional Union
Party.
An address to President Lincoln, similar in terms
to the one drawn by Horace Blaney, of Philadel
phia, was circulated' and received a large number
of signatures. The address can be read and signed
at Brant's European Hotel at any time during to
morrow, as we understand the design is to dispatch
it as soon as possible.
DEATH OF Dm Owru.—The sudden death of Dr. E.
L. Orth, Monday evening,startled greatly our whole
community. He was in his usual health during the
day—attending to his large professional business,
up to 9 p. m., when he returned home, and, after
his usual office business, went into his family, and
immediately after sitting down, sank back in the
chair and died without a struggle. A peaceful
death—meet close for a peaceful, gentle life !
Dr. Orth's death (at the comparatively early age
of 47 years, after a long practice bere,) is more than
usually noticeable and impressive. Patient, gen
tle, kind and liberal in his ordinary intercourse
with society, and in his profession assiduous, unti
ring, sympathizing and skillful, his presence will
be missed in all the walks of life, and eapeeially in
the many chambers of sickness which he was wont
to cheer.
How strange it is that the physician should go
before the still lingering patient, and that the in
firm and aged amongst ns; who might have been
expecting his kind ministry in their soon-coming
death struggles, will now follow his body to the
grave—cut off in advance, and only too early, as
would seem in human judgment.

ONLY ONE DOLLAR EACH !
16.000 BEAUTIFUL STEEL PLATE ENGRAVING
OF THE LORD'S PRA vER FOR SALE!
VAL /TABLE PROPERTY GIVEN AWAY!
The idea of representing the LORD'S PRAYER by an
engraving, and of ornamenting and arranging it in such
a manner as to produce at once a model of neatness and
taste was conceived and. carried out by ORMSBY, the
celebrated Bank-note Engraver of New York city. It
commences with exquisitely executed words of “Ona
FAtnatt.” arid then follow in succession the other parts
of the Prayer, every phrase of which is engraved in the
most elegant and tasteful manner. Near the bottom of
the picture is a superbly executed head of OUR SAV lOU 8,
and encircling the upper part of the engraving are ten
angels, each bearing one of the TEN COMMANDMENTS.
The engraving has received the most unqualified praise
from the religious community, ae there is nothing of a
sectarian character about it, having been recommended
by clergymen of all denominations. As an ornament it
is one of the most splendid ever published in this country,
and is destined to take the place of a poorer class of
engravings. The size of the plate is 20x28 inches, and
is unquestionably the cheapest engraving ever offered in
this country.
Who that loves Art—who that delights to study n, fine
engraving—who that would possess a beautiful Picture
—who that would receive the impressions which such a
work is calculated to imp•irt, wou'd fail to 'secure a copy'
when the price is only ONE DOLLAR, with the chance of
securing for that EOM in addition a permanent home or
another valuable Gift?

is worth more thatfthe dollar asked fot it, as will readiily
be acknowledged on an inspection , of it; but the
subscribers intend to make a Gilt Distribution to
purchasers of the engraving of valuable presents, as
