testimony was offered in his favor of any

the motive too agreed with tho acts; had
M'Conaughy succeeded in murdering

for tho mind to draw any other conclusion,

whon aoked if he had any thing to say why
the sentonce of the court should not he pass
cd upon him, after his attorney had explain.
ed the question, his head rolled kw!y from
side to side, his eves cast down, his mouth
partly open and drawn in at the corners.and
with a faint, trembling voice he whined
slowly out: "I am not guil
ty."
Never wus a face so expressive of horror
guilt, remorse; it was haggard, pale, distor
ted and trembling, as if before the fiends of
darkness; he trembling stood before the
Judge, while he pronounced liisseutence.
Deeply did Judge Bumside feel the so
lemnity of the rwful duty he was about to
discharge, and truly solemn and affecting
was the manner in which it wa3 performed.
He' called to the prisoner's recollection the
crimes for which he had been tried; he
elanoetl at the manner la which- the trial
had been conducted, and then told him that
the verdict of the Jury fixed his guilt; but
when ho came to detail the crimes he had
00 rami lied, and to trace the fiend through
all the scenes of blood, his own heart mol
ed at the afflicting detnil, and his own e-
motion rolled through lite aisemhlv; it was
indeed an affecting picture ot the bloody
tragedy drawn by a master hand. We saw
the artful murderer, as lie allured his victims
from their mother s fide, and one by one
slaughtered them with fiendish barbarity;we
saw rum when, with hellish cruelty, no re
turned and struck down the kind aod aged
mother; we saw him when, like the tiger,
he lurked in his hiding plaee, and drove tfte
fatal bullet through the heart of her firsl
born, and draggvd him l the bed where lav
his murdered mother;anu we saw mm when
he aimed his last bullei at the brains of the
aged father ! Yes ! ve saw all this the
murdered group, the aged mother and her
slaughtered ones, from her iirat born to the
child of her old age, lying around her; 1
was truly a masterly prodiic'ion. The pri
goner was ordered back to prison, and sen
tenced to be hung ey th neok until dead;
tiid never did a sentence of the kind fall
uoon a mora guilty wrdteh the enormity
of hid crime, as Judge Burnside declared,

STANDING ARMY HUMBUG.
Of .all the humbugs raised by the whigs
io gull the people, the standing army hum
bug stands among tho most prominent.
Knowing that there is not n si 11. word in.
the bill to bear them out in their statements,
they refuse to publish the bill a reported,
while they publish column nfior, column of
misrepresentation of its details, and cull up
on tbe people to believe their absurd and
false statements, without oven examining
fur ihs'mselves. But they are mistaken.
The ' sober second thought of the people"
will eventually put all things right, and rea
son aud judgement prevail .in' opposition to
log cabins, hard cider and koon skin argu
ments. .
The following extract from a speech dc-
dnlivcisd by Senator BuehaiiHtm, nt the Lan
caster Convention, is a complete refutation
of the whig hug-bear stories about 'a stand
ing army and shows conclusively that 110
such thing was aver contemplated, or even
thought of
From every Whig orator in the land, we
have heard it over and over agair. reiterated
that Mr. Van Bui on has attempted to estab
lish a Standing Army of 2U0.0U0 men.
On what does this ridiculous charge rest ?
On a plan or hill reported to Congress at lite
!... c
iut icooiuih in tiueuii'iiutj at nu ruqitssi 01
a Committee of the House of Representa
tives, by Mr. f oinsett the Secretary of War.
Now the first striking fact connected with
subject is, that Mr. Van Buten not only did
not approve this ptau, btt was ignorant of
its existence. In the emphatic unguage
of the Secretary himself, " with ii or its de
tails ho (Mr. Van Buren,) hod nothing to
do." At is tho usage in such cases, it was
sent to Congress " wihout being previously
submitted to flic President." It is,. there
fore, emphatically and exclusively tho plan
ot Mr. romacii, aim not ot Mr. Van Jiu
ren.
But what is this plan ? There arc nt least
0110 million five hundred thousand men in
ihe United State subject 10 militia, duty;
and probably not much, if any, less than
two millions. From thiii mass" it was pro
posed by Mr Poinsett to take one hundred
thousand mon betweon twenty Jand thirty
sevon veaw of age, by dmft or by volun-
cram, or 0110 man 111 every fifteen, which

The principaUieasons upon which thrsn
great and good men, ever since tho origin
ot otir.ttoveriiHient, havo advocated a stun,
lar plan for re-organising the militia, aic,
that whilst the present militia sysii ni was
a heavy bt.rden and expense both of tiu0
and money to the people, they acquired but
little useful instruction iu the rt ot defend
ing their country. It was th; ivlwrt', darn
ed by them to be wier to eli.gbif' i,r.d m.
struct a small portion-of the yomiter men
or tae great mass, and relieve the reu,,a.
der altogether from the burden of imhua
duty. Their recommendation howWr,
have never found favor with Congress. Re

Poinsett's plan bv the Committee on tliu
Militia, both in hc Semite and 111 the House;
and if iheie wafj single Democruic mem
berof GongiessHi faiorof its adoption, I
known not ihe man. , For :ny on 11 part, 1
was always opposed to it, believing that tho
true defeuce at the country consists iu ihu
brave hearts and strong inns of the mass of
the people. Whenever danger is impend
ing from a foreign foe, hundreds of thous
aitds tjf ?uch men will volunteer to defend
their country; and under the impulse of pat
riotism, they will then acquire nioto knowl
edge of the military art in a shoitor period
than they could ever do, in theso equips of
instruction, during a tirne of profound pencx-.
Hesides 1 believed that 0110 feature of ihu
plan conflicted with the Constitution. But
this plan in now dead and buried, and il
ghosi is conjured up by the Whigs, merely
for the purpose of afliightiwg the tin. id, ur.d
inducing them to oppose a Presid. nt vbn
never approved it, and of supporting a tin
didaio who has been one of the chief advo
catts of a Minilar measure.

Our Schuylkill friends have nominated
ohn Weaver, of Pollsrille, as their oandi-
ate for the Legislature. Mr. Weaver is a
sound democrat and a popular man, and
will faithfully represent his constituent.
i'hero is 110 douM of his election.'
From all parts of the county, we loam
that there is a general determination to sus-
aln the ticket. The volunteers whe were
defeated in their nomination at the conven
lion, are striving to create division and dis
sention iu our ranks, but from what ire cn
learn, it will avail but little, and that the
whole ticket will Ite Iriomphniuly elected.

her, say 25,000 men. to be determined by
lot, waif to pass out of the at; live force into
what is called the reserve or sedenary force,
was also to consist of 100,000 men. Un
der the system in complete operation, twenty-five
thousand men would pass, each year,
by draft or volunteering from the mass of
ihe militia into the active force; the same
:nurhber of men woald pass each yeorTrom
tho active into the sedentary force; and the
like number would return each vear from
the sedentary force inio the mass of the mi-
ilia (torn which they hd been originally
drawn. Each of the mih'.ta men thus il rut
ted was to servo four ye.irs in the active
force, and was to .constitute a part of the
bederitary force during four years longer.
It waij a new denomination by which to
call a grand division of the Standing Army;
that of sedentary corps; but never was
name better applied. This division of the
grand army ate literally to sit-stlrl, bavhig
perfected their military accomplishments
during their first four yeats' service in the
active force. They arc not to bo called out
even in defenej of the country, until the ac
tive force shall have bren exhausted. At
one fell swoop then, one, half of luo Grand
Army ot two hundred tUouermd men are an
nihilated 1.
Then as it regards the renaming 100,000
men of the active force; what duties had
they l perlorui : 1 lie United suites was

the President was nuthorized (0 assemble

you, is kuudiuiiiiaiiy 111c piau, iu y iiuib

sett, so far as it proposes to make any
change in the existing law. This is the
standing army not ot uu,uuu but ot IUU,-

the United States, fur the purpose of im
proving themselves in the military an; and
that for a period not exceeding thirty days,
iu fuch yeut; and thin the Whigs proclaim
to be portentous to liberty. We havo been
told that ttiese sons were to ride against
their own fathers, and the fathers against
their own children, and were to destroy
their own libertiet; because they were to be
assembled. from ten to thirty days iu caeb
year for die purpose of learning hew to de-
feud their country. Ami it is out ol this
miserable material that tho Whig would
manufacture u panic end induce the people
to believe that the President desires to es
tablish a standing army of 200,000 meu to
usurp the liberties of the country. What
renders this humbug still mere farcical and
ridiculous, if possible is, thai General Har
rison himself whilst a member of Coueie,
advocated and strongly urged the adoption
of a similar plan to cliaify and train ihe Mi
