down upon the Buchanan administration like

Mr. Buchanan was Simple enough to believe
that the people were blind to the outrageous
wrongs which he bad done, them -that they
were insensible to bis reckless disregard of
the fundamental principles of government,
and his contempt lor the rights of the people.

OTIS VICTOBY.
"At the election held in this State last week
defeated, and we will have a decided majority
in the lower branch of the Legislature.
The victory is s complete one in all its bear
ings . It is a severe rebuke to the Buchanan
have already produced for its masters such a
heavy crop of disasters. It has even the
hardihood to claim that trie result in i cnu
sylvania followed an adherence to principle on
the part of the President and his Cabinet, when
the fact is notorious thai notning couw na e
Administration, its corruptions, extravagance T1I.,iii.t.i K,.h a catastrophe but the desertion
' and , misdeeds. It demonstrates clearly that of principle on the part of those to whom had

the masses in Pennsylvania are opposed to a I p3rty."
President forcing an obnoxious constitution
upon a protesting people that they arc op-
posed to the "progressive free trade" policy
of the Democratic party, by which the indus

ruined to benefit foreign capitalists and manu

A Damaging Disclosure. lion. Y. P. Stan
ton, Secretary of Kansas under Gov. Walker,
in a late speech at Lawrence niado the follow
ing statement:
He Mr. Stanton came to Kansas in 1857,
believing it to be the intention of Mr. Buchan
an to deal fairly with tho people. Had not
this been his opinion, ho would never have ac
cepted the position of Secretary, nor Walker
that of Governor of the Territory. Justice
demanded the admission that he still believed
the intention of the Administration to have
violate their pledges, and sell their votes to ueen cood. Its present line of policy was an
political speculators, they will lay aside their after-thought. Until the month of September
1 he and Gov. Walker were sustained through-
Darty predilections, and, rising in their sover- I mlt i,v te Administration. He would men
cign might, will drag the traitors from the pla
ces they so unworthily occupy.
In speaking of this victory, wo trust the
press of our party will do ample justice to all
who contributed to it. It is not an exclusive
American or Republican triumph, for under
the broad banner of the People's Paity, Anti
Lccompton Democrats, as well as Republicans
and Americans, arrayed themselves, and by
their influence and votes aided in its achieve
ment. All honor to the gallant men who com
pose the People's Party !
' J. Glancy Jones, Mr. Buchanan's leader of
the House, who was re-chosen two years ago by
6,004 majority, is run out. now by 19 majority.
This is to outsiders the most amazing result in
all the Pennsylvania revulsion. "Old Berks"
never till now failed to elect any candidate for
Congress who had the regular Democratic
brand, and was supported by the tidier (Eagle,)
which has been termed the "Dutch Bible."
Major John Schwartz, who is elected, is an
Anti-Lecompton Democrat. We understand
he voted for Henry Clay in 1844.

the celebrated Sth Ward of Baltimore, Shutt,

3,303 majority, which is only about fourteen
hundred votes more than thero are voters in
the ward, and nearly as many majority as its

tion one circumstance which was not general
ly known, as showing this conclusively.
"On the 1st of September. General Whit
field and Dr. Tebbs, of Kansas, who were then
in Washington, signed a letter "expressly stat
ins that the course of Gov. Walker ana feecre
tary Stanton was acceptable to the people of
Kansas, inasmuch as an unaonotca majority
were in favor of a free State." 77' letter was
written at the special request of JTr. Buchanan,
who was anxious to shield himself from the
assaults then being made upon him by the
South. Through Mr. Buchanan's agency the
letter was sent to tho Union oflicc, and was ac
tually in type, accompanied by editorial com
ments endorsing the character of Dr. leuos as
a "gentleman of unimpeachable veracity,
when it was seen in proof by a Southern mem
ber of the Cabinet, who ordered its suppres
sion. From that day to this the course ot the
Administration towards Kansas had been a
most unscrupulous and shameful one."

Hon. James T. Dale in this county will be
gratified to hear of hjs election to Congress in
the Centre and Lycoming district, by a ma

Free Institutions, a strenuous advocate of Pro

TnE Pope to make a Pilgrimage. His Ho
liness the Pope is as singularly quiet this sum
mer, in the ample walls of the A'atican, as he
was active and erratic last year through his
own dominions and those of his immediate
neighbors ; but if report speaks true, tho year
1859 is'to witness a very much more distant
excursion on the part of his Holiness than any
he has undertaken since his diplomatic mis
sion as Nuncio to the Republic of Chili. Since
the recognized supremacy of the See of Rome
throughout Christendom we liavo no instance
of the supreme Pontiff ever venturing upon a
pilgrimage to the Holy Land, and it is, indeed,
difficult to imagine what would be the correct
etiquette to be observed between two persona
ges of such exalted positions, and sech mixed
attributes as the Pope and the Sult.it. It is
nevertheless rumored in several credible quar
ters that Pio Nono, who has already ventured
upon many steps that his more cautious pre
decessors would never have dreamed of, is de
termined to add to the memorabilia of his e
vcntful reign a papal pilgrimage to Palestine,
with the full consent and approbation of the
Sultan Abdul Medjin.
The Administration Sold. It appears, says
the Daily News, that the Cabinet at Washing
ton has been humbugged by the Nicaraguan
Minister, Jerez, who it seems is but a bogus
representative of that State. Mr. Buchanan's
Administration is cxceedinglj unfortunate,
and every cunning diplomatc seems incliued
to impose upon it. When Sir William Gore
Ousley outwitted the dignitaries, it probably
afforded them some consolation to know that
they had been gammoned by a very noble
personage, but it will be hard to extract coni
foit from a knowledge of the fact that they
liavo been "sold" by such a small potato Min
ister as Jerez. It may be, however, that the
Administration is realizing the truth of the
assertion f Iludibras, who says :
"Doubtless the pleasure is as great
Of being cheated as to cheat."

PREPARED FOR THE "RAFTSMAN
Centre Colstx; On the 11th, about 4 !
o'clock, some villain entered the public house !
of T. M. Hall in Milesuurg, ana stoie xrourme
drawer attached to the bar, about sixty dollars
in gold and silver. Ihe thief effected Ins en
trance through the cellar and was discovered
in time to see him making good ms escape.
The same mcrning another attempt was madS
to break into the store of Mr. Cook in Miles-
burg, but the parties engaged in the burglarious
enterprise having accidentally made noise c
nough to arouse the people of the vicinity,
fled. Suspicion has not attached itself to any
one. On the 12th, some notorious scoundrel
entered the public ' house of Mr. J. W; Gard
ner in Howard, and stole several articles of
value. The thief entered the room where our
excellent friend J. J. Lingle. Esq., (who had
taken quarters for the night with Mr. Gardner,)
was sleeping, and quietly purloined 1rom his
bedside, his vest, pantaloons, and pocket book,
with which he ellected his escape. Ho did
not succeed however in getting much money.
How Mr. Lingle succeeded in getting back to
Bellefontc, minus his pantaloons and vest, we
are not informed. .... On the 13lh, says the
Central Press, the body of an infant was found
in a cess-pool in the neighborhood of Boals-
hnrx. Tho discovery created consiUerame ex
citement, and an inquest was held, but the ver
dict is not known. Madam Rumor, however,
has iriven her verdict, but as it contains the
names of respectable persons we forbear giv
ing it publicity. When we gel tne omciai re

Lycoming Cocntt. On Friday the 18th,
t":o clothes of a Iitllo daughter of Mr. Henry
Dieffendeifer, residing near Hughesville, ac
cidentally caught fire in the absence of her
parents, "and before assistance arrived, she
was so horribly burned that she died in twelve
hours afterwards. This is truly a distressing
occurrence and should serve as a warning to
parents not to leave their children alone where
there is fire. ..... The Lycoming county
Mutual Insurance Company sustained losses
to the amount of $20,000 the last three months.
Inpiaxa County. On the 14th a fire was
discovered in the barn of Mr. Henry Altman,
Blacklick township, about two miles from
Blairsvillc. The bain with a large amount of
wheat, rve. oats. &c, were totally destroyed.
A fine saw mill which was close at hand, was
also destroved with a considerable amount of
lumber. The loss is estimated at $lo00 and
will fall heavily upon Mr. Altman. It was the
work of au incendiary.
Montour Cocstt. Mrs. Twiggs, under sen
fence of death at Danville, made an unsuccess
ful attempt to escape from jail some night ago
By means of a small spike and a bone she
made an opening in the wall of her cell, but
was anticipated in her design by the Sheriff,
who olaced her In irons in another cell. She
is to be executed on the 22d inst.
Somerset County. On the 10th, a little
son of Sebastian Geissler of Somerset town
ship was poisoned by eating a piece of cake
containing arsenic, placed in some out of way
place to poison rats. A spoonful of mustard
was quickly administered, and by that mtans
the little fellow's lifo saved.
Perry County. A store was broken into
in New Bloomfield, last week, and the safe
taken away into a field, where it was blown
up with gunpowder. About $3000 were found
in the safe by the scamps, of which $100 be
longed to the Insurance Company.
Northumberland County. A small child
of Wm. Follnier, Esq., of Turbut township
was drowned in tho mill-race, near his resi
deuce, on the 5th. The child was running a-

Masonic Curiositt. A few days ago, Mr.
C. Blackburn, of Covington, Ky., found in a
sack of Rio coffee a copper medal, bearing
upon one side the representation of the tent
of a Knight Templar, surmounted with the
crown and cross, and surrounded with the mot
to, "In hoc signo vinces." On the reverse,
in a wreath, the number "20" has been stamp
ed over the number "40." There is a motto
on this side, but ihi medal has been so much
worn as to make it illegible. The date is
"1328." The peculiar siguificance of this
medal will be appreciated by all masons who
have attained the degree of Knight Templar
The steamship Afiica arrived on the 14th

The defeat of Gillis is tho uioro decisive
when we consider the means that were used,
and the efforts that were made to carry his
election. The district was thoroughly can
vassed by tho friends of the Administration,
and Senator Bigler used bis personal and po
litical influence to elect Gillis, but all to no
purpose. He and his friend were a little too
"weak at the knees" for the load they bad un
dertaken to haul over the road they were tra
veling, and consequently they had a regular
break-down by the time the election came 011.
Poor fellows ! We pity them.

Torn Corwin made a speech, in the course of
whicb be said : "I think I could convince
every impartial man that the horse of Popular
Sovereignty was a dead borsc blown to atoms
by democratic guns. And as for tho wind
broken, spavined pony tho Wilmot Proviso,

it'a the horse I mean to ride while there's a

Acqcitteo. The trial of Martha Morgan, a
young widow called by the letter writers hand
some for tho murder of Alexander Allen, a
constable in Johnston county, X. C, has re
sulted in her acquittal. The prisoner was
poor, but "proverbially honest," and the offi
cer was levying on her little.stock of worldly
goods, a duty which he accompanied with
some harsh' words to the poor woman. She
seized a shot gun and killed him, and was ac
quitted, more by sympathy than strict justice.
