CPIt is stated that Gov. Geary, since his
return from Kansas, is a thorough American
Republican, and intends to stump the State

E7The Tyrone Herald, is the title of a new
paper started at Tyrone, Blair county, by Robt.
Stodart. It is to be an independent journal.

K7"An unknown "poick" has produced the
followir pointed and refreshing gem:
The firet bird of spring, attempted to sing,
Tut ero he had sounded a note.
He iellfroia ths Mmb ah, a dead bird was him!
The music iial friz in his throat."
7"Thc bi!I separating the office of -Supcr-;r.!enint

ses of lager-becr, between 6 o'clock, A. at.,
and 10 o'clock, p. u. ; and ho finished sixty
one glasses by 8 o'clock, winning the wager.
An animate beer-barrel!
ir7There is trouble in the ranks of the sham
Di-rr.ocracy. The Liquor League is second
only in their army to the Irish Brigade, and
i:e League have found out that Gen. Packer
voted for the "infamous Jug Law !" They can't
stand such a tnan, anvhow, and unless he can
"satif'y" thcia they are resolved to have out a
Free Liquor candidate one who would blow
Packer & Co. sky high alamode "Muhlenburg
ftXo Free Schools" in 1835, There's rocks
efor the Democratic craft.
CyUov. Geary. It is stated that Gov. Gea
ry will soon in self-vindication, publish a
sketch of his sojourn in Kansas as its Gover
nor, and that it will make a profound impres
sion upon the public mind and heart. Let it
all out, Governor, hit where it may. ,
C7Gen. Walker offers a very large bounty
to those who will join his fortunes in Central
America. Those who go thither will doubt
less come In for a liberal share of the newly
grabbed territory, (six feet by two at the very
least) without counting such luxuries as yel
low fever, knife wounds, tec.
CThe "fair election" promised Kansas,
la just such an one as Louis Napoleon had
when he was "elected" Emperor. "Jemmy,"
said Paddy, "you may have your choice of
the two mares, but, be the Howly Virgin, Pit
have the gray one." They may "elect'? to stay
at home or be cheated and perhaps murdered
in the bargain."
HOW SOME THINGS ABE DONE.
We stated a few weeks since that the '"side-door"'
leaders were resorting to every means to get names
to their call for a State Convention. The follow
ing letter shows that the name of Mr. Abr'm Hoyt,
who resides in Lawrence tp., was attached without
his knowledge or consent. Mr. Hoy t authorized ns
to'also make a statement to that effect. He has too
much spirit and good sense to allow himself to be
made the tool of low and base political tricksters.
We copy the letter
From the Harrisburg Telegraph .
Clf.arfielo, April 21. 1857.
Messns. Editors': I see aenll published ia the
Philadelphia Daily iYirtrx, for what purports to bo
an American State Convention at Lancaster, on the
20th of May, to nominate candidates for State offi
ces. I take this method of stating that I neither
placed my name to the call nor authorized it to be
used inthnt connection. I would also ft a to that I
have no affinities with that clique of disorganizcrs
who are at the head of the movement; on the con
trary, I am honestly and sincerely opposed to Lo
cofocoism. and will co-operate with the great body
of the Opposition, in its efforts to overthrow tho
sham Democracy. Respectfully yours.

FEOM THE STATE CAPITAL.
IlARKisnrna, April 2-3th, 18G7.
Mr. Editor of Jocrkal Bear Sir: The
House did not take up the bill to prevent
throwing obstructions in to the Bennet's
Branch of the Sinnatnohoning on last Monday.
What was the reason 1 It was made the order
of the day, and it requires a two-thirds vote to
snspepd the order. The reason is simply this.
No one called for the orders of the day, and it
flipped. Mr. Backus attempted to call it up
on Thursday, but failed, theie being not two
thirds in favor of suspending the orders of the
day for this purpose. He had, however, per
mission of the House to make a statement,
and read quite a lengthy speech on the bill,
and was followed by Mr. Petriken on the oppo
site side, by like permission of the House.
There was some merriment in the House while
Mr. Petriken jvas speaking, when he would re
fer to the bill before the House, tho cry from
different parts of the House was beard, What
Bill V there being no bill before them, and
Mr. Petriken speaking by permission.
The storm on last Sabbath and Monday, the
19th and 20th, was very severe and general.
It commenced here on Saturday evening, and
continued until Tuesday. The wir.d iva9 so
strong, that it was with great difficulty one
could in any way carry an umbrella. The snow
in different places ranged from one inch to two
feet deep. Many places it melted nearly as
fast as it fell.
The House have passed the bill for the sale
of tho Main line. The bill will no doubt, be
made less objectionable in the Senate than it
now is. The objectionable features of the
bill are, it relieves the property of the Rail
road Company from taxation and remits the
tonage tax, for the consideration oJ $1,500,000.
A hill to guarantee the redemption of a loan
ot $3,000,000 which it authorized tho Sunbnry
and Erie Railroad Company to make, and pled"
gi tig $3,000,000 of the bonds to be received
from the sale of the Main Line for that pur
pose, failed yesterday by a tie vote. It may
be reconsidered.
Immediately after the above vote was taken,
a resolution was adopted to appoint a special
committee with instructions to prepare a bill
authorizing the sale of all the public improve
ments of the State, except the Main Line.
While this was pending a member asked "Does
that include the arsenal V Speaker "Yes and
the House of Representatives too." Another
member vociferated, "That is already sold'"
referring to the special fees he insinuated the
members had reoeived for their votes on the
bank bills, and the bill for the sale of the
Main Line, and for the Sunbury and Erie
Railroad Loan bill.
Yours for the truth.
Eur Cocktt.
The Administration ignores the Free State
party in Kansas, while each day develops the
design of the proposed Constitutional Election
as a fraud upon the franchise of resident citi
zens sympathising or acting with that party.
What are the facts 7 All the appointees of
the administration for Kansas, are radical pro
slaveryists of the Whitfield school. Federal
officers, known to have deliberately murdered
Free State men, are retained in office, and no
outrage committed by them has been rebuked
by the past or present administration. Walk
er, radical, supersedes Geary ; Lecompte and
Cato, infamous for judicial tyranny, are re
tained in office ; while every avenue to power
is jealously kept in the hands of the enemies
of the Free State cause. Even the land-offices
are confided to Whitfield, Woodson, el al.
whose decisions of disputed claims invariably
favor the Pro-Slavery side.
The time fixed for tho taking in Kansas of
the consus, preparatory to the election for a
Constitutional Convention, expired on the first.
The Lecomptrm correspondent of the Missouri
Democrat writes that less than half of the Free
State settlers have been counted in. And ev
ery body knows that the great mass of emigra
tion from the Free States, had not on the 1st
inst., reached the territory. That the Consti
tutional Convention act was intended to dis
franchise the Free State men of the territory
is clearly seen. None but those wilfully blind
will fail to discover the grossly fraudulent in
tent. Married Oh the 16th, by B. D. Hall, Esq.,
Mr. Godfrey Fisher, of Bald Hills, to Miss
Eliza IIeicbell, of Karthaus tp.
Died On tho 12th April, at Glen Hope,
Cambridge Boogs. son of Samuel C. and Het
ty Patch in, aged 11 months and 13 days.
On the 1.3th April, Philip, son of Philip
Gilnett, of Union township, aged 11 years and
21 days.
On Monday morning, the 27th inst., Mrs.
Elhabeth, wife of William Alexander, Esq.,
of the borough of Clearfield, at an advanced
age.

alleled success. It is a combination of expecto
rant remedies, simple in their character and used
by every educated physician. It is easily taken.
