T115 .Vor4 American eays : It seems
to u lo La no more than right and
just that the Senate of this Common
wealth should be organized and con
trolled by the Republican members
of that body, Pennsylvania is essen
tially, tlmronghly and radically a Re
publican State, and at the late elec
tion the two Republican tickets poll
ed a clpar majority of the popular
vote It is therefore proper that the
majority should rule.
Chsuncey Black, and other Dem
ocratic orators talked so much about
Thomas Jefferson during the lnte
campaign that Pattison has got it in
to his mind to have an inauguration
without show. The average Demo
crat is almost fritrhtened over the
prospect of no display at th insugu
ration. However, show, or no show,
Harrisburg will be over-run by the
untarrined on inauguration day. At
this early day nearly all the hotels
have orders for rooms, flow to ac
commodate the thousands is a per
plexing question. If inauguration
came in snrnmrr time the enthu
piastio r i'crim could t-trelch fciffiEen
on a cellar door, or door stoop, for a
night If the crowd could be separ
ated, the dry followers of Pattison
could be stowed away in the hotels,
and the other fellows could be sent
to Chauneey's Butler, who could
fortify them sufficiently to endure
one night's lodgement on a hay mow.
It is best, however, not to worry Ov
er the unterrified, they will take care
tf themselves on inauguration day,
with or without Jefferson in the play.
Thev have tot had anything of the
kind" since 1SG1. It would be churlish
for the Republicans to do anything
else than stand by as civil and pleas
ant spectators to their jollification.
Go in ye nnterrified.
Tns decline of the interest of
American shipping is a subject that
the Democracy are want to talk about
just now. They are casting about
for something to give them favor
with the people. The shipping of
America is one of their points. They
charge that the interest has gone in
to decay because the Republicans
put such duties on ship building ma
terial that Europeans have the ad van
tage of cheaper material, and for
that reason fill the market with ships
at cheaper rates. But that is only
one side of the question ; bv many
odds the larger side, is the iact that
the shipping interest went into decay
when Relel pirates sailed on the
seas during rebellion and roblied
every American merchant that thev
overtook. Merchants that shipped
goods to and fro on the seas would
not ship in American vessels because
they were subject to capture by Reb
el cruisers or pirates. Ihe goods
were shipped in vessels of other na
tions for the reason that such ships
were not molested by the Confeder
ate pirates. During the period of
18C1 to 18G5, goods from America to
Europe, and goods from Europe to
America were sent in British and
European ships. That drove the
ship owners and ship-builders of the
Republic out of the market After
such a raid as that upon American
shipping interest it is wonderful that
the Democracy have the impudence
to-say a word about tho subject
Thk Philadelphia Record says ; the
claim agents at Washington have
under consideration a new bounty
bill, the object of which is to pay
soldiers who did not receives bounty
$100 for each year's service in lieu
thereof. Out of such an arrangement
there would be rich picking for the
pension sharks.
The Philadelphia Record says;
Tho First National Bank of Denver,
Colorado, asserts that cn an average
one entire mail has been lost or sto
len every mouth between Denver
and New" York. If the Post Office
Department cannot clearly prove the
falsity of this accusation there is
room and necessity for some very
active aud efficient detective work,
followed by an early array of vacan
cies among post oillce employes along
the route taken by the Denver mails.
Drauxo tho past 5 years, Richard
Huffman of Bentleyville, Washington
Co., has been an invalid from an in
jury that he received to his spine, by
a fall. Doctors pronounced his cane
an incurable one. Huffman, it is said
has alwayB been a religious man.
Having heard of a remarkable cure
having been effected by prayer on
some one near Erie, he wrote to the
person. The answer was in substance
as the accounts published in the pa
pers. The next step was to obtain a
concert of action in prayer for his
own recovery. The Erie party and
himself set Thursday the 9th day of
this montdi as the day in which to
pray for his recovery. Huffman
crawled to the barn and there pray
ed two hours. The length of the Erie
man's prayer Las not been reported
The Washington Co. papers say that
Ha.Tinan, is a cured man to all ap

Thursday the 30th inst-, Las been
set apart by the President and Gov
ernor as a day of thanksgiving. The
English dissenters landed on Plym
outh rock in the last month of the
year lii'20. After that time it was a
desperate struggle with them for ex
istence for the period of three years,
but at the close of the autumn of 16
23 the harvests were sufficiently
---Jant to entirely remove the fear
Run -
of want or dre-ad of staivauo- .
from
tho heart and mind of the devout Pur
itan. For the abundant harvest and
the blessing of removal from want
the Pilgrim was devoutly thankful,
and therefore the Governor of the
colony Governor Bradford issued a
call for a thanksgiving feast and men
were sent to collect game for the oc
casion when they all "met together
and thanked God with all their hearts
for the good world and the good
things in it." From the small begin
ning in the woods of Massachusetts
in the autumn of 1G23, the great
thanksgiving day cf 50,000,000 had
its bt-ginniug. In this place there
will be union Thanksgiving service
in tho Presbyterian chapel where
thank will be offered to God for the
good world aud all the good things
in it. Rev. Mr. Smitlx of tho M. E.
Church will preach the sermon on
that occasion.

Birmingham, Ala-, November 22
At 9 o'clock this evening a horrible
accident occurred at the Sloas furnaoe,
ia this oity. What is known as "scaff
old" bad formed in tbe ' stack of tbe
furnaoe, and the fire in tbe stack bav
ing apparently died out, two colored
men Robert Mayfield and Alexander
King were lowered by ropes from tho
top for tbe purpose of removing tbe ob
ataole. It is supposed tbey were over

hoping to surmount tbe giade without

the car direotly behind tbe looomotive
was loaded with gunpowder. He im

The Philadelphia Record or Novem
ber 20, 1832, says : Tbe following re
ceipt for diphtheria is from ar English
doctor who never lost a case whsn giv
ing this treatment: "One tesspoonful
sulphur in a wine glasi'nl of water.
Stir with a stick, not with metal. Use
as a gargle, allowing some to pass down
tbe throat. When not possiblo to use
as a gargle blow a little powdered sul
phur through a quill into the throat
This gives instant relief." It is now
known that diphtheria is caused by ani
rnalculrc just below tbe roots of the
tongue, and powdered sulphur is the
most powerful agent (and least barm
less) known. My own children had
tho diphtheria one of them severely
growing worse under the care of a good
physician. I suspended bis medicines
and applied powdered sulphur on a fiat
stick (a fair pinch, tbe child projecting
its tongue), just across tbe lower part
of the tongue. This gave immediate
relief, and atter two or three applica
tions tbe child recovered. Iu a large
town in Western New York there was
an epidemic cf diphtheria, and every
case was fatal op to tbe time tbis rem
edy was made known to tbe people
there, when only one child died of all
tbose who used it. 1 have mentioned
it to others with liko results. This
remedy should be made known in dis
tricts where diphtheria prevails.

A Logging Camp
From a Maine paper.
An interesting bouvenir comes from
tbe lumber woods of tbe north in the
form of a communication written very
leeibly cn a fine sheet of birch bark
and incased in an envelope of the same
material. The letter is dated Matttmis
conns, No. 2, Range 7, about 15 miles
from any settlement, in a lumber camp
where Mr. John McGregor bas a crew
of men encaged cutting wood for bis
factory. The writer gives some idea of
how men live in a logging; "Our camp
is built of rough logs of poplar laid up
on tbe sides about four feet, and run
ning up to a pitch in the centre of
about 10 feet. The roof is covered with
cedar splits 4 feet long and laid tbe
same as shingles, making a very good
covering, though not very tight. Tbe
floor is made ol poles laid on tbe ground
We have two stoves, one a large beater
3 feet long, aud tbe other a cooking
stove. For sleeping apartments we
have a berth made tbe length of tbe
camp, wbscb is 191 feet, and accommo
dates 14 men. In front of this and on
a range with the stoves is the 'deacon
seat,' of tbe e&nie length as tbe camp.
Our living consists of pork and beans,
bread and cookies, gingerbread, old
fashioned doughnuts, dried apples, beef
codfish, mackerel, tea and molassess.
Fer breakfast we bave pork and beans
hot from the oven, with gingerbread,
cookies and tea. For dinner we bave
beans, doughnuts and bread with tea
and occasionally beef. 'Dinner is taken
in tbe woods. For supper we bave cod
fish or mackerel and potatoes with fried
pork. We get any amount of fresh
perch and pickerel close by tbe camp,
Mattamiscontis Lake. Fish form a
prominent item in our diet."

Washington Co., this state is just
now the center of attention for many
minds, because of the cure of Rich
ard Huffman, through the agency
of prayer to God. Huffman's remark
able case is supplimented by another
from Washington town by despatch
last Wednesday the 22nd inst, as
follows : Lesa than two weeks have
passed since the miraculous faith
cure of Richard Huffman of Bentley
ville, a cripple. Another case in this
county is now to be recorded. Ro
gers, an estimable young lady, 22
years of age, who resides on a farm,
a few miles from town, has been for
2 years afflicted is a like manner with
a spinal affeotion. During that time
she has been unable to leave her bed,
not even able to raise her head from
the pillow. A vear ago she was tak
en to Philadelphia before the best
physicians of that city, but without
obtaining any relief whatever. Rich
Huffman had been acquainted with
the family, and several weeks ago
said to Miss Rogers that he was cer
tain that through the power of pray
er God would yet restore them both
to health and strength. The result
in Huffman's case is already known. I
Miss Rogers is very devout and for
some time has been praying for her
relief and others have prayed for
her. Yesterday she got up from bed,
and when her father came home
from work he found his daughter j
sitting in a chair, apparently fully
recovered. Dr. Dodd, her physician I
is as much astounded in her case as
was the doctor, who had made a care
ful examination of Mr Huffman and
pronounced him incurable. This is
the Kecond case of faith cure iu the
connty within ten day, has caused
much comment.

Tbe Shadow on the Snow.
There isn't much snow yet, but thi-re it a
heap of shadow and tbe shadow is the
shadow of Christmas, which, 4iko other

of it. In every family two important prob
lems are hastening to solution; and while
the elder members are asking themselves
"What shall we givef" tha younger are no
lea eagerly speculative as to what they
shall get. Tbe boys drop vague hints of the
dsiiability of skates and sleds, aud books
of adventure and exciting narrative- while '
the little gms are bemoaning aiiauuiated

It really is no easy task to select line
of Christmas presents, so as to insure that
every little one shall get just what it will
most appreciate, and none shall be unduly
avored; and as the holiday season draws
near, the caret ul motber leeis, more, than
at any other time, the need of some reliable
