Cuavcco Acais Governor Cunin hating
been compelled, by the action of the Presi

.national mourning for the death of Presi

now names June 1st, as the day for that
loUmn observance.

make a handsome thing out of it. But few

This certainly tpeake well for the morality
ol our county, and we venture to say that
there are but lew counties in the. Stale that
can point to the moral fact that their "board

Sheriff of oar county that his jail is empty,
for he would lose money boarding prisoner
at the pay received in ttiis county.
ItfTtniSTiNO to Orrics holders Thefol
lowing resolution was offered by Andrew
Johnston in the honse of representatives,
March 13, 1858: "That rotation in office,
in the opinion of the house, is one of the
cardinal tenets in a republican form of gov
ernment, and ought never to be violated, on
any pretence whatever, and shonldle prac
- ticed upon by all admiuisiratiensegardless

Mirks of improvement are visible opoo
nearly every street in this place. Our ci:i
zens seem to have commenced in good
earnest this spring. ,
Mis Am ilia D. Webb is building a fine
addition to her brick bouse on Main S reet,
below Market, where she designs locating,
in a short time, her Fancy Store.
Jesse Shannon has carpenters busily en
gaged finishing op the new brick, situated a
few doors below Market SqQare, and which
will be completed in a few days.' It will
be opened by L Ruktak & Co as a Grocery

mob law and violence."
inis assertion we i
choose to take exceptions to ; from the very
iact that we havij been as careful a reader,
probably,' as he has on his list, and have
seen very little, if any,, opposition to "mob
violence," in his paper since its publication.
We think there are others of. his readers
who will bear lis out in saying that As has
not written an article "deprecating mob law
and violence" or. the past four years, if
previous. In the fall ol 1862, when his
brethren mobbed William Etlr, ol Green
wood, in this town, for expressing an hon
est cfiflerence of opinion, how much did
his columns teem with articles "deprecating
mob law and violence?" This man was
nearly pummelled to death for taking a po
sition that this same Republican party took
last Spring, not quite (our years since, viz :
against laying a tax for the purpose of rais.
ing volunteers. At that time, too, there
was no legislation on the subject and the
Commissioners, or any other power in the
County, had no authority to levy and col
lect a tax for bounty purposes. This man
Ever was nearly killed for being right, and
Dr. John's papur had not one word to say
against it. Still further along in the case :
The principal actors in this riot were ar
rested and bennd over in the name of the
Commonwealth lo answer, and upon trial
were convicted of riot, assault and battery,
&c. They had a fair trial, before a civil
court, the evidence in the case being'fairly
sifted, and received sentence accordingly.
We shall refrain from giving names in this
matter, as the people generally know who
they were, but limply cite the, editor oi the
Republican to the cas9. Now, how earnestly
did he "deprecate mob law and violence"
through the columns of his paper when
this tning happened ? Nat at all. But on
the other hand, arguedihat the rioters were
unfairly dealt w,th, the jury prejudiced, and
that they deserved pardon at the hands of
Governor Cortijt, which was at once
granted, the Doctor's name being most
prominent on trie petition.
When mobs were about to be incited for
the purpose of destroying the Democratic
offices in this place, we failed to see in his
paper one word deprecating mob law and
violence." Since the breaking out of thin
civil war, between the North and South,
;fcere have been many Democratic p'ese
demolished, in tiis State, tor opinion's sake,
besides, a large number of our public men
have been mobbed, beaten and abused in a
most shameful manner ; yet not one word
have we been able to discover in his paper
deprecaiing mcb law and violence." Ever
since tbe advent of the Republican parly
into power moro or le?s mobbing has been
going on. The principles ol this parly seem
to have educated the people to this kind of
spirit and feeling.
It if a late day for thi Republican editor
to come round aid declare that he ''always
deprccaied mob law and vkWence," when
such is ttof the fact, and we challenge him
to give extracts from his pen, even five or
six years bick, sive in tne case of egging

was down South trying to work op an in

In The Greenwood School Directors' case,
which had a hearing before Jidge Elwell
oo lat Saturday a week, it was decided that
a new election (honld be bold on Friday,
ths second day of June.' .The Election
board held that some of the tickets were
not properly designated and upon that
grouna refused to take them into the couut.
The Democrats voted for JohnLeggott and
Samuel Bofari, with the words "three
years" written opposite their names, aud
William Lawton, wi h "one year" after his
name. The Republicans voted for A. P.
Heller, Joseph Hiyman, and A. P. Young.
All three names were written upon one
ticket, (with a few exceptions) and the
words ''one year ' following the last name.
This ticket the board ru'ed out, on the
ground, we believe, that two of the names
were not designated or that they were all
marked for one t ear. As we stated before
the election was set aside and a new
ordered.

A severe Storm On Thursday last a
ery severe gale, accompanied by a very
heavy fall of rain , swept over part ot Phil
adelphia, doing considerable damage. The
greatest destruction to property and injury
to persons occurred in the Nineteenth ward,
where twenty-three dwellings were either
partially des:royd or completelyrazed to
the ground. They were nearly all three
story houses. Several of the inmates were
serioasly injured by being struck while
making their escape, with the falling brick
and timbers. Their furniture ia ranch dam

these families ii as bad a situation as
though the) had been visited by a fire.
This was the most severe gale Philadelphia
has been visited by for a long.
