Judge Junkin has given an opinion that
in commitments nnder the recently passed
railroad act the county is liable for costs.
The Judge says: ' The code of I6C0, sec.
Gl, p. C7, deel ires that wher? a party shall
have boen discharged accnrdii.g to law
without payment of costs, the costs of
prosecution sliall ba paid by the county.
Under the act of March 2J, 1814, which
contained a similar provision, a discharge
under the insolvent laws, arrest, or reversal
of j .dgment, were held in Agnew vs. Com
nionwealth, 12 S. and R-, 53, to throw the
costs of prosecution on the county. So,
too, in case of pardon, because it was
thought unreasonable that officers and wit
nesses should lose their cost.
rte case of Rev. Mr. Wilson, pastor of
toe Methodist congregation of this place,
was tbe subject of ecclesiastical investiga
tion last week. The ecclesiastical eonrt
sat at IlarTisbnrg, at Dnncannon,and in this
town. Tbe question or case that occasion
ed the court was the misfortune that over
took Rev. Mr. Wilson at n.uTiburg on the
day before Cbrruiuas. On the day before
Christmas, and at the place mentioned, he
passed into a scmi-uuconscious state, wbieh
so affected his artion, or conduct, that he
bera-ne the object of the attention of the
police of the city of Ilarrlsbiirg. and they,
not knowing him, put him in the lock-up,
instead of delivering him to his frien ls.
which tbey doubtless aouid have done hid
they known his profession, and his acquain
tances in the city.
The court was held to investigate tb
case and determine as to whether the rev
erend gentleman had fallen among design
ing men, aud had lieen drugged, or bid
lallen a victim to an appetite lor drink, and
becomo intoxicated. After passing three
Jays in investigation the court deemed it
proper to suspend the unfoitunate clergy
man from all church privileges and minis
terial services, until the question can be
considered by Conference, which wiil
meet next mouT
And thus the question goes up to a higher
ecclesiastical court, to determine, whether
Mr. Wilson was intoxicatud, drunk, on a
debauch, or was overcome, as ha says, by
a drink of What ha supposed was sweet
ctdef.
Will a glass of sweet cidtr so undo a man
as was M.'. Wilson undone t Can a power
ful drug be put into drink so as to destroy
the intelligent and moral action of the indi
vidual who drinks it t
Are there places, public saloons, in the
world where men are sometimes given drugs
that should not be given them T lias liar-
risbnrg such a man-trap, and was Rev. Mr.
Wilson to a limited degree one ol its vie
tims t
The reverctd gentleman is nothing to us
in particular ; we arc not a member of the
church of his choice, and never expect to
be, but as he most emphatically denies that
he was on a debauch, and is just as em
phatic as to what he believes was the cause
of his unintelligent conduct, we cannot re
frain from expressing the hope that the
question will be most thoroughly consider
ed ia all its bearings when its gets to the
upper court. It wwuld be a tryiug thing to
made a victim twice.
x. Os Saturday, James Deen, ex-ch rk to the
County Commissioners, was arraigned be
fore Justice Kreider, on a charge ot W. II.
Grouinger and James McLaughlin, ex
County Commissioners, for "having unlaw
fully converted a portion of tho public
money of Juniata county to his own me."
The amount that be is charged with having
appropriated to his own use, is fouud stated
iu the Auditors' report of the receipts and
exjenditnres of this county fCJs published
in this issne, and reads thusr" BVance in
hands or old Commissioners, $117.52."
The old board is charged with tint amount,
and ex-Commissioners Groningvr and Mc
Laughlin aver that the cx-clerk appropria
ted that amount, without their consent,
from the count boni fund. The old clerk
avers that he took the money as pay tor
woik done in fitting up such boil is as were
sold. The Justice held Mr. Deen in the
sum of Solid for a hearing on tuo loth inst.
at 10 o'clock A. M.
On the same day that Mr. Deen was ar
rested last Saturday the third Commis
sioner of the o'd board, David B.Cox, tiled
an appeal in tbe matter of the report ol the
Auditors of the county, tu to the cbargs of
$1372.

The Frey tract No. I was sold.to Joseph

As exchange writes as fol'ows ia ngard
to tbe new penion bill : Tho only persoas
who will be benefitted by the passage ot the
new pension bill are soldiers and dvpend
erit parents who isi'.d to apply until five
years had eiap-d after their right accrued ;
and of these two classes there are of the
foiuier City per cent, that are out entitled
to more than four doll.irs per month, end
many oaly two dollars; while of the latter
all are entitled to neittier more nor less than
eight dollars per month, and there are only
a lew thousand of them. Some dependent
parents now on the rolls are entitled, under
the arrears act, to as many as ten years'
pension, amounting to $900, but they are
comparatively few. Some soldiers may be
entitled to the same amount, but from ac
tual personal knowledge of several hundred
pensions granted within tbe last fonr years,
there are now 40,000 persons on the pen
sion rolls who come within tbe provisions
ot the act. Their arrearages will not ex
ceed $000 each ; therefore, from $ 10.000,000
to $1",000 000 is quite a liberal estimate of
the demands the new bill will make on tbe
Treasury.

A dispatch on Saturday says : Exporters
ot live cattle to England are in a state of
intense excitement over the announcement
that the English goverr.THf nt has under con
sideration the desirability of temporarily
prohibiting the landing of American live
stock in British ports. This contemplated
action is based upon the grounds that a
large cargo of cattle, which arrived at Liv
erpool from Portland, Maine, on the steam
ship Ontario a few days since, was found to
be affected with plcuro-pnetimonia. Up to
the present moment the prohibitory orders
have not been issued, although the shijfers
have received what may be considered as a
preliminary warning by tbe State Depart
ment, baring been notified by Sir Edward
Thornton that immediate action ma; be

Obituary.
Dr. Philo niu!in died in this borough, a't
his place of residence n Third street, on
Tuesday, the 28th ul'., aged 79 years. He
was a native of Sharon, Connecticut, and
came to Juniata in the year lM j, read med
icine with D-. Doty, who bail also come
from Connecticut, and after grodu Uioo at
the Jefferson Medical College in Philadel
phia he practiced his profession in this
place rrtany ye u-s
He was one of the oldest of a family of
eighteen children, composed of ten boys
and eight girls. I have olten heard htm
narrate how it was a custom of his mother
to hare an annual fail ily re-union, at wbieh
time she would always stand them in a row
according to their respective ages.
Several of bis brothers were men who ar
rived to great distinction in their respective
localities. Ills brother WillUm, ho Was a
intn widely known lor bis ability and scaltli,
died at his hotue in L'lica, N. Y., aboil t
four years ago. His younger brother, A Ion
so, li'ing near Chicago, stiil survives him,
he wss one of the sutfjrers of the Chicago
fire to the extent of about $100,000, which
was supposed to ne about half of his wealth.
Fur more than forty years. Dr. Hamlin
stood a sentinel to the emergencies of a
suffering and afTlit-ted hutuanity, as an ac
tive," skilllul, and efficient practitioner of
niedieioei and was no doubt the agent in
arresting thd destruction of lite by disease,
in tliousands of cases. He was a man of
generous mind and heart. Unmindful of
self-exposur;, he responded with equal
alacrity to the calls of both rich and poor,
who rewarded him with the patronage of
au extensive practice. Be-ides the strong
professional confidence which families re
posed iu hi in, ho staa alo especially en
deared to them, for his kind and sympa
thizing deposition. His constitutional ele
ments were such as to naturally mingle with
tbclr sorrows, aud add consolation to their
bereavements.
He was fond of congenial companionship,
full bf anecdote and apt in illustration, with
a memory well stored with the traditions of
tbe good old times of his boyhood, and the
history of early settlers ; and on such topics
made himself an agreeable aud instructive
companion. He bod a quaint mixture of
wit and wisdom iu his conversation, which
very quickly produced upon strangers a fa
vorable impression. He was not au.b:tious
in aspiring to position, outside of his pro
fession, nor ostentatious in his ra inner.
Iu his consultation! aud counsels on med
ical cases, he was always courteous and
very considerate of the feelings and opin
ions of other physicions. Without arbi
trarily contending, be was prompt iu advo
cating his opinion of eases, and was partic
ularly noted for his eligant judgment in
diagnosis. On all topics he was a mall of
Onu views and solid judgment. When con
sulted, as he frequently was, abont quarrels
or misunderstanding between neighbors or
individuals, uo nutter whether his con
sultee was ou the right or wrong side, his
advice was always the same, "Make it np.'
lie had a great disgust to enviable friction,
in social circumstances, sn I exemplified by
precept and example that glorious motto,
Live peaceably with all men." Those
who knew him, or knew of him, in his
pal'iiy days, knew him as a mm of remark
able muscular power, and activity, as well
s iron constitution; without which he
couid not have endured the hvdships of so
extensive a pnetife, at a time when the
saddle was the only means of travel.
TreWous to hi professional pursuits blar
ing heavily upon him, his principal love and
indiiif ence in recreation were wrestling,
jumping, fkstinp, running foot races, t-;.,
in all of which he was a champion; and
even yet, you will hear him spoken of as a
reroarkab'e type of that early day, iu the
aforesaid resjects.
Thus ends another of those mysterious
snd paii.ful dispositions of Providence,
which we are so often called tipr.n to chron
icle. This solemn truth receives almost
daily CHiifirmation, witliin the sphere of our
acquaintance, and those a hs ; mioion it is
to attend the bedside of lhesi-k and dying,
ad minister to their wants, to alleviate the
distress of life, are not more exempt them
selves, lint must likewise bow to the deciee
of I.'im who doeth all thin-s well, and be
carried to their last resting place in the val
ley and shadow of death. But to one aged
snd infirm, e ti list that death itselt has
enlarged ti e bounds of life, coming as a re
lief to one well strickeu in years.

We have heard of tbe business i f Court
biiig suspended on account of the sickness
of s j.iror or the indisposition of tbe Jud e,
but it U b-tt for a Huntingdon County juror
to cause the adjournment of court because
of drunkruneas. Yesterday morning, Wil
liam Houck, a former of Tod township,
was draarn to s-rve as a juror in th'.- case of
George Fleming vs. The Pennsylvania Ca
ll:!) C'oiiipiny. The cams proceeded,- al
though, as the sequel provrd, .Mr. Kouck
was then under Ihe iufi.ience bf liquor, with
find unlit to weih the evidence, this
morning couit was called and Mr. Houck
was absent. The sheriff was sont in search
of him, and found him out of town, wend
ing his way bomewanl. He was brought
back aud lodged in j ail until this afternoon,
when he was summoned before the court
and aked if he had anything to sie in ex
culpation of his misconduct. He hesita
tingly leplicd thai he had not. Judge Dean
then recounted Ihe duties of Ihe Jury Com
missioners to place in the wheel the names
of sob t, discreet and intelligent citizens, a
duty in which they tad utterly failed in tits
case. He then pictured to the cn'prit the
lUgrace he had brought upon himself by
icd ligiug his appetite iu atioiig drink, and
the luss of at least $1000 he bad caused.
He was sentenced to piy a Cue of $J )0,
and have his name stricken from the list of
jurors hereafter. The eleven j uors were
then discharged, defendant's counsel refus
ing to contiuue the case with less than the
Constitutional nnmber.
