CHOKING TO DEATH.
It appears that ware to have again, in a
few weeks, one or more terrible scenes enact
ed on the scaffold in the county jail. Ifowev-
er deserving of death the criminals may have
been—tho incidental part of it—tile exam
pies lately exhibited have not, as it happens,
diminished the numbers of victims by slung
shot and knife. Several murderers have
since escaped from any, even a secondary,
punishment. Yet in the face of all these es
capes, a vast amount of piety and patent thek
ology is still poured forth from the press and
pulpit to sustain the choking process as a
part of the code.
Nothing can be clearer to them than that
Holy Writ justifies it, although they find in
the same book that a mark was set on Cain,
that whosoever should find him, might not
kill him. Nothing could be more blasphe
mous, in their opinion, than to doubt the
binding morality and expediency of this old
saw, as they- construe it, although, if it is
worth anything, as a rule, it should be taken
altogether with its company—a plurality of
wives being another luxury found in the
same category: But these advocates have
never Set told us e where they get the authori-
ty to twist and modify the shedding of blood
into three of four different grades, and tinker
alit, until, in the uncertainty of a conviction,
ninety-nine of a hundred felons escape from
any punishment whatever.
The execution of criminals within the pre
cinct of the prison was a great reform, but it
should go farther, so that in the chance of be
coMing penitent, they may not become ab
sorbed in the opportunity afforded them of
being transformed into heroes and heroines.
If, therefore, the solemnity of the punish
ment is to be carried outas intended, by mak
ing it more secluded, the sentence of the
Judge should be the last public notice of the
fact; and let it be known to the criminal in
the dock, when he is advised that he is to he
taken thence, and hanged within the jail
yard until he is dead, that from then land
thenceforth, the gates of eternity for him
have swung inward upon their hinges to the
exclusion, As far as possible, of the whole
world, and that whatever may transpire be
tween governor and sheriff in the matter of
the warrants, &e., nothing further shall be
known until the sheriff shall certify under
the statute, that, on a certain day, the sen
tence of the law was consummated. But,
for; whaQgood, some will exclaim? Briefly,
this, and we think its importance has been
made obvious morally and socially.
Who was not disgusted with the beastly
conduct of the vagabonds outside the prison
walls, shown against the sister of the wretch
ed Charlotte Jones, while she attempted to
convey away for burial the lifeless corpse,
after the roro had done its work? It was a
brutal riot, well nigh ending in another mur
der.
A quiet execution, fixed, but known only
to the sheriff and his jury, would have pre
vented all this. There was no danger of an
escape, as it was not an open ground, and,
therefore, there was no necessity for the at
tendance of the military. As it was, their
presence tended to draw together the ewell
mob around the jail wall, and, indeed, our
fine volunteer companies should hereafter de
cline any such doubtful honors and bad dis
tinction.
As to the time `spent by the criminal be-
tween conviction and the rope's end, it has
been made a mockery and scandal. All man•
nor of intercourse daily with curious gapers,
male and female, is allowed during this time,
which should be to him a very solemn peri
od; or he should have the opportunity to make
it so. Instead, the prisoner has his levees,
with plenty of visitors and abundance of vi
ands and condiments, unknown in his previ
ous life ; these sentimental philanthropists
scorn, of course, to minister these wholesome
meats to the scirrhous stomach of the drunk
en pauper in the next cell, who needs it and
has, not forfeited his right to it. Prison fare
is good enough for him. He is guilty, perhaps,
of a three cent "jigger" of whisky and a
snooze in the gutter. The other must have a
jolly time of it, as a'gentleman of ascertained
character. We have even heard the satin
faced•folon complimented on his good looks,
with the solemn averment of his Pccksniff
visitant, that if ho is really guilty, (a con
victed murderer, mind you!) that he would
be the last man in the world (brothers, uncles,
and all included,) that ho would take to be
a criminal.
These be their humble preparatives for
death and judgment, and during the pleasant
re-union, pardon is freely spoken of
And furthermore, if the law is jealous to
guard the morals of the community and en
deavor to suppress bawdy and obscene pic
tures and flash publications, kvhy are the spe
cies of " Game," they dramatically call them
solves, permitted to thrust forth from the
scaffold the story of their filthy lives, and what
good under Heaven can the confession of
their prurient sins do to 4lublic morals with
their photographs, lies, and all. If this state
of things is loft to the discretion of the officers
of the law, they shbuld reform it altogether ;
if not, the legislature should amend it. As it
exists, the intention of the law ha's failed, and
we may as well return back to the old style
of executing criminals on the broadest spot
of the most public common in the county.
A funny correspondent Df the Gazette, gives
the following unkind "rap" to a distinguish
ed repudiator supposed to be connected with
the "preen" of this City:
I see by your paper, the Daily. Press and
Union, that Mr. - ll'linight is not the right man
for Congress in your estimation. As you say,
dear Thomas, we want some man of distinguish
ed talents, like yourself, for that position; in fact
modest mon in these days of political degeneracy,
stand no chance for office. Permit me to say
affectionately, Thomas, that diffidence and die
trust of your own abilities have prevented you
thus far from doing yourself the justice your tal
ents might demand. lam glad you are at last
speaking out boldly like a man.
Yon must run as an independent candidate.
We may not be able to elect you, but then we will
teach the party the lesson that we want office for
ourselves or friends, that we aro determined to
have it. Our friend, Capt. Schottky, is enthusi
astic in your favor. He says he will compel hie
tenants to vote for you or turn them out and put
130W ones in their places who will do their duty,
and that he will oheerfally pay all leases incur
red in the publication of your paper, and vote
for you himself if ho can get out his naturaliza
tion papers in time. ,

Douglas In the Field.
Chicago Times, of Sunday, contain the
peech of Senator Douglas on the occasion of
his public reception in ehleap as reported
by Mr. Sheridan, the accomplished stenog
raph,r of the Philadelphia 1'r, , 33. The speech
of Senator DutOas is, as might be antici
pated, clear, comprehensive and eminently
national. We sincerely hope his efforts may
be successful, and that he will be returned to
the Senate of the United States, which he
has adorned for the past twelve years.
e w Work on Central America.
We noticed some time ago, the departure of
Thomas F. Meagher to Central America, in
company with Ramon Paez, son of the
Ea-
President of Venezuela, for the purpose of
writing a work on that country. The eastern
papers announce his return. With Mr.
Meagher's obsevvaut eye, and brilliant powers
of description, we will doubtless have 5 work
of surpassing interest and usefulness in rela
tion to this region of country, which is much
talked of, but little known, either in a do
mestic or social way. It is his intention we
understand to proceed as rapidly as possible
to the completion of his work.
Foreign Itliesione.
The Washington correspondent of the Ba
more Sun says :
Three or four of the chief foreign missions
are to be filled during the summer, It is true
that they are not yet vacant, and they are to be
filled when the President hes settled upon the
policy which hs is to adopt in regard to great
questions connected with them. It is well un
derstood that New York must have a first-class
mieeion. She hal now no place in the Cabinet,
and only two second-rate missions.
Clen.2re.l Dix's name has been mentioned for
France, but that mission is to go to Louisiana,
without a doubt. It follows that the London
mission must go to Nev . York. Lotters from in
fluential men in that Stato przsent urgent rea
sons for the appointment of Judge Roosevelt.
He is fitted for tho post by reasons of his large
fortune, conciliatory department and excellent
good sense. The intimate and important com
mercial relations between New York and Eng
land would seem to require that the minister
from the United States should be selected from
New York, if no politini obstacles be interpos
ed to prevent it. Ia this case political reasons
strongly favor the selection.

J. P. BARR, Esq.—DEAR Sin: Presuming that
in the absence of news of more general interest,
your renders are rea.dy to pitch into any thing
savoring of news from any quarter, I take a
spare moment to drop you a few lines on sev
eral subjects.
The contest for the Democratic Congressional
nomination in this district, is likely to be a warm
one. Somerset county has already instructed
for Judge Kimmel, but it is conoeeded that his
chances ere slim. Cambria county will proba
bly instruct for C. L. Pershing, Esq. It is al
together uncertain who will get the Conferees
from this county. The contest lies between Major
J. R. Crawford and Thad. Banks, Esq. Hun
tingdon has no candidate, but, if I am rightly
informed, her Conferees will go for Crawford.
Packer carried the district last fall, so that we
feel quite sanguine as to the result this fall.
But, politics avainat! The weather is too
sweltering to let such matters disturb the equa
nimity of our temper.
The fashionable points about the mountain are
likely to be well patronized, in spite of the dole-
ful wail of hard times. Bedford fairly opened
on the 6th, and the fashionablee aro flocking
thither in immense crowds. At Cresson, too, a
great many have congregated, with a prospect
of more to come. I believe it is not claimed that
the waters of Cresson possess medicinal quali
ties, but they are remarkably cold, much too
cold, it is said; to drink on a warm day, unless
dilute.' with a dßs'n cf well, never mind,
presume you understand, eh '? There in one

The Logan, at Altoona, has some strangers,
and I em pleased to notice quite a number of
city folks at the Exchange Hotel in'this place.
The exchange is kept in most excellent style by
the Messrs. Wingate, and it is there we resort
daily to read the Post—now the only daily Dem
ocratic paper in Western Pennsylvania.
Local news, at this season, is generally very
scarce, because business is very dull. Chimney
Rock Furnace met with an accident last week
which brought operations to a sudden stand. I
did t learn the nature of it clearly, but it is
said to be a serious damage 'to the stack and
hep.rth. It will be repaired as speedily as pos
sible.
Tho iron busines3 is much depressed, and i
here ig no'L an advance in the price very goon,
more of out furnaces will be compelled to blow
out. I hear it stated that Lemon & Baily have
twenty-seven hundred tone of metal lying on the
bank of Bennington Furnace. Other furnaces
in the country have also heavy supplies on hand,
and must realize before long, or stop for a
season.
I am gratified to observe your notice of our
Bank ; at the same time I protest against having
it plooed in the same category with the Wild Cat
concerns kncwo as the "Shamokin," the Craw
ford County, and the Tioga Bank. No sir; I
want you and your readers distinctly to under
stand that the "Central Bank of Pennsylvania"
has gold and :liver enough in its vaults to re
deem every dollar of its issues, and there never
yet has been a note presented at its counter that
was not cheerfully redeemed on the instant. The
crusade against. this Bank comes from interested
parties—hence should be looked upon with all
due . allow - ance. le this and the neighboring
counties there ore some four or five brokers'

Back. The peity spits of some of these
tutions is exhibited in their throwing out the
notes of the Central Bank, for which they could
gat either gold or silver by sending less than a
square ! This is one phase of the opposition,
and now for another.
I do not knew Mr. Brewer, the Cashier, and I
am acquainted with but few of the Directors.
Such of them as ddo know, however, are mon of
probity and character, and are wealthy enough
to start eoveral banks like the Central. Col. I'.
C. Maoclowell, the President of the Bank, I have
known for years. He is a man of sterling integ
rity and worth, and has used more exertions to
benefit this place than any man in it. No person
here dare say any thing against his standing and
character, in the community. Had Col. Mac
dowel' recognized Rob Roy's ancient Scotch sys
tem of levying "black mail" as legitimate trade,
and paid certain newspapers a handsome douceur,
the bank would no doubt have boon loaded to
the skies; but he choose the more honorable
course of making the bank stand upon Its own
merits,

Respectfully yours,
BREEZE
Anserlaan Mining Company.
It is not generally known, we believe, that
there is an American gold mining company
in the Province of Veraguas, New Granada,
which has been in operation now about three
years, and has been incorporated under a reg
ular charter from the State of Pennsylvania-
This company purchased their lands from the
Fabegras, from whom they received pefect ti
tles. The mines have, after a great deal of
expense and labor, become valuable ; but it
is now alleged that the former owners, with
the sanction and encouragement of the Govern
meat of New Granada are making unlawful
attempts to re-obtain possession of them.
Wholesale Plunder.
We learn from the Memphis Bulletin that
in addition to the plundering by the Secreta
ry of the State of some $35,000, and the em
bezzlement of $123,000 of bonds, that should
be in the controller's office—by nobody knows
who—there has boon discovered by the inves
tigating committee a further plundering of
$200,000 —by nobody seems to know who—in
the shape of coupons taken in the Bank of
Tennessee. So far, then, there is found out
to have taken place pilfering to the amount
of some $300,000.
Ron. Lewis D. Campbell of Ohio. to his
late Constituents.
Eon. L. D. Campbell has issued the follow•
ing circular to his late constituents :
Since the United States House of Representa
tives placed me en their " Retired list," I have
not addressed my late conealuente, who have eo
repeatedly honored me, in regard to the recent
exercise of the Federal power, by which lhe'r
sovereignty, as well as the right of the people
of Kansas to govern themselves were trampled
down. I have preferred to remain silent, for
the time being, because it was charged by some
who projesa to advocate the principles to the
support of which I have devoted the best of my
energies of my life, (in and out of Congress,)
that I. would attempt to excite the sympathies of
a wronged constituency, for the purpose of per
sonal aggrandizement.
It hes been, and is my desire, that the people
of the Third Congressional District of Ohio,
who oppose the efforts of the present Adminis
tration to force the African Slavery upon Kansas
against the known will of her people, should be
left "perfectly free to regulate " the means of
redressing their wrongs and of rebuking the
acts of tyranny to which I refer, and which have
no parallel in the history of any portion of the
civilized world, where the God-given right of
man to govern himself is respected.
I cannot give better evidence of my profound
gratitude for the oonfidencereposed in me in the
past, than my promise to make any reasonable
sacrifice in the future, in behalf of the principles
of "Popular Sovereignty.
When the Anti-Lecompten people of the dis
trict open their campaign, I will, if alive be in
the field? Personal interests, if not the superi
or qualifications and claims of others to the hon
ors which I have been permitted to enjoy, sug
gest that I should enter as a private in their
ranks rather than a e.te.ndard bearer. The po
sition, however, which I must occupy in the
coming conflict, is left entirely to them.
LEWIS D. CAMPBELL.
HAMILTON, July 1, 1858.
Lewis is modest and "retired." We hope
his late constituents of both sexes, sand all
colors, will permit him to enjoy thelaury of
private life, and not again oppress the little
man with the cares of public office and three

—When Daniel Webster, says an exchange,
was delivering his memorable speech at the
dedication of Bunker Hill monument, the crowd
pressed forward to such an extent that some
wore fainting and some being crushed. Officers
strove in vain to make the crowd stand back;
they said it could not be done. Some ono asked
Mr. Webster to make an appeal to them. The
great orator came forward, stretched forth his
hand, and said, in his deep stentorian tones,
" Gentlemen stand back !" "It cannot be done."
they shouted. "Gentlemen stand back," said
he without a change of voice. " It is impossible,
Mr. Webster, impossible !" "Impossible !" re
peated Webster, " impossible I Nothing is im
possible on Bunker Hill," and the vast crowd
swayed and rolled back - like a mighty wave of
the ocean.

tiliiver up, Stranger, till the Gala tan
There is a spot in the south-western part of
this State, known as the "fiery Fork of Honey
Run"—a delicious locality, no doubt, as the run
of "honey" is accompanied by a corresponding
flow of "milk," and a mixture of milk and hon
ey' or, at any rate, honey and "peach" is the
evidence of sublunary contentment every plane
they have preaching!
"Honey Run" is further Christianized by the
presence of an extremely hcspitablo
whose mansion, comprising one apartment—
neither more nor less—is renowned for never
being shut against the traveler, and so our friend
found it during the chill morning air, at the ex
pense of a rheumatism in his shoulder—its nu
merous unaffected cracks and spaces clearly
showing that dropping the latch was a useless
formality. The venerable host and hostess, in
their own apartment, usually enjoy the society
of two sons, four daughters, sundry dogs and
"niggers" and and as many lodgers as deem it
prudent to risk the somewhat equivocal allot
ment of sleeping partners. On the night in
question, our friend, after a hearty supper of ham
and eggs, and a canvass of the Fiery Forkers—
the old lady having pointed out his bad—felt
very weary, and only looked for an opportunity
to "turn in," though the musquitoes were trum
peting all sorts of wrath, and no net appeared to
bar them. The dogs flung themselves along the
floor, or again rose restlessly, and sought the
door step, the "niggers" stuck their feet into the
yet warm ashes; the old man stripped, unscru
pulously, and Bought his share of the one co
lepsed looking pillow, the sons cavalierly fol
lowed his example, leaving the old woman, "gals"
and "stranger," to settle any question of delica
cy that might arise.
The candidate yawned, looked at his bed,
went to the door, looked at the daughters ; fi
nally, in downright recklessness, seated him
self upon "the downey," and pulled off his coat.
Well, he pulled off his coat, and he folded his
coat, and then he yawned, and then he whistled,
and then he called the old lady's attention to
the fact that it would never do for him to sleep
in hie muddy trousers ; and then he undid his
vest, and then he whistled again, and then, sud
denly, an idea of her lodger's possible embar
rassment seemed to flash on the old woman, and
she cried ;
"Gals, jest turn your backs round till the
stranger gits into bed."
The backs were turned and the stranger did
get into bed in "less than no time," when the
hostess again spoke :
"Ream stranger, as you ain't used to us you'd
bettor kiver up till the gala undress, hadn't
you ?"
By this time our friend's sleepy fit was over,
and though he did "kiver up" as desired, some
how nr other the old eountorpane was equally
kind in hiding his blushes, and favoring his sly
glances. The nymphs soon stowed away, for
there wero neither bustles to unhitch nor corsets
to unlace, when their mamma, evidently anxious
not to smother her guest, considerably relieved
him. 'You can unkiver now stranger; I'm
married folke, and you -ain't afeared of me, I reo
on 1"
The strange: happened to be "married folks"
himself; he unkivered and turned his back with
true connubial indifference, as far as the ancient
lady was concerned ; but with regard to the
"Gals" he declared that his half raised curiosity
inspired the most tormenting dreams of mer
maids that ever he experienced.

A gentleman, having in his possession ten or
twelve hundred dollars on a certain banking in

one fine morning, and addressed the teller in the
following language :
"Good morning, sir. Beautiful weather; sir !
Ahem I I have something over a thousand dol
lars worth of your money in my pocket. Do
you redeem?"
The teller says— •
"Wed morning, sir ; " smiles blandly, and
answers, "we redeem, sir, but we do not pay
specie.
"Da not pay specie, hey 't Suspondetl I sup
pose ? "
"Suspended."
" What do you redeem with `t" was the next
question.
'• With bills on the other batiks," replied the
clerk, pleasantly.
"And those, I presume, are al.n non-specie
paying banks?"
"Very probably they are, sir," bowing very
politely.
"Well, thou, what kind of bills can you give
" Most any kind, sir. Giv3 you RA Cat ?"
"Can't stand it."
"Well, then, how'e Grey Cat '!"
"Tain't 17orth a cuss!"
"WO, I'll try and aooonsadate, you with

"It wouldn't bo any acoemodation at all, I

neither Red Cat, Grey Cat, Black Cat, White

Eastern backs ?"
"No, sir," softly and very polite, "Eastern
banks are principally specie, paying institutions."
"If not Eastern, then, have you bills on any
other banks that do pay 6peoie 1"
"No, sir," bowing most courteously.
" Well, then," drawing his package from his
poc , ket with a desperate expression of counte
nance, "can you give me tolerably executed counter
feit bills on any bank that does pay specie I"
"No, sir!" very loud, anti looks as if he felt
insulted.
TELE Vl:ay LATEST YET.—During the summer
of '49, trays the Knickerbocker, corn being very
scarce in the upper country, and one of the citi
zens being hard pressed for broad, having worn
threadbare tho hospitality of his neighbors by
his extreme lazine.Es, they thought it an act to
justice to bury him. Accordingly, he was car
ried to the place of interment, and being mot
by one of the citizons, the following conversation
took place :
" Hello, what have you get there ?"
" Poor old Mr. S."
"What are you going to do with him V'
" Bury him."
"What, is he dead? I had not heard of it."
"No, he is not dead, but he might as well be ;
for he has no corn and is too lazy to work for
an."
" That is to cruel for civilized people. I'll
give two buzhels of corn myself rather than see
him buried alive."
Old S. raised the cover end asked iu a drag
giug tone, " Is it shelled?"
"No, but you can shell it."
" Drive on, boys."
Acidity of the Stomach and Indigo/atoll
"I can oat anything after taking your Holland
Bitters," is a remark frequently made to us.
To persons troubled with acidity of the stomach,
Indigestion, or any disorder of the stomach, we would
only say, try it. Its world-wide reputation has been
established alone by tho many wonderful cures it has
effected. When used for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver
Complaint, weakness of any kind, Costiveness and
Piles, it should be taken in small doses—say, half a
a teaspoonful, regularly three times a day, before
