that were a burden upon the people, give
assurance that an extension of that control
to oiuer departments of the State Govern
ment will be accompanied hy real reforms
upon etxravagance and irregularities which
have prevailed under Republican aduiinis
tralion.
Third Public moneys are for public use.
and all appropriations should be subject of
rigid scrutiny, to the end that these uses
may be served without personal or local
favoritism waste or peculation.
rouno i ut long continued abuses and
spoliation of the State Treasury and the de
fiance of law by its management make it
essential that radical reform be made so
that large funds shall not be accumulated
by the taxation the of the people and dis
triDutea among the favored depositories
of State official, but that an the surplus in
excess of the immediate necessities of the
State Government shall be invested in in-
tercsted bearing State or Federal securities
ubtil it may be applied to tne extinguish
meat of the State debt.
tilth The demand of the Democratic
Senators and Representatives for an honest,
just and true appointment is in accord
with the letter and spirit of theCoustiution
and with rights and interests of every sco
lion ana ot all me people of the S tate.
The shameless determination of the
republicans in the Legislature to
maintain the present dishonest, un
just and untrue appointment of the State,
by this refusal to accede to any fair proper
tioii is a denial to the people of their right
tj a fair and cijnal representative. We
corumcuii me ijoveruor lor conveneing an
extra session to enforce obedience to the
law, and we counsel the Democratic uiem
bora of the legislature to continue to insist
upon mat ooeaience. ine cost in money
is not to be weighei against the cost of
broken Constitution, tiolate duty and the
denial of the rights o( the people.
fixtn. The long contained imiuuu.ty

Seventh The 16;h and 17tb, articles of
the S Lite's constitution, regarding private

the natural friend to the workingman. The
present unprecedented anl unsatisfactory
-condition of the relations ot labor and cap

Tested rights of capital and the claims of
private enterprise. Legal arbitration is a
proper and commendable means of settling
disputes between employer and employes.
Ten'h The tax laws of the State should
be revised and so changed as to make them
more equal and more just, and bear enualy
upon all classes of property.

The Huntingdon Globe of August
9, says : On Sunday a week ago Wil
liam Straight, of West Huntingdon,
was bitten in the hand by a cupper
head snake while coming over War
rior Ridge To save himself he im
mediately sucked the blood and poi
son from his hand and threw it out.
It appears that he had several de
cayed teeth in his month, anl some
of the poison lodged in them. The
poison proceeded to his brain, and
since Tuesday Mr. Straight has giv
en violent wgns of insanity. The
case is a very sad one. Mr. Straight
has a family.
In the south east corner of the ex
cavation that G. W. Smith, and John
McCov, have made for E. D. Parker,
on the site of the house so long oc
cupied by George Doughman iu this
place, there was discovered a cavity
of about feet long and about the
same in height and wiiltu, tilled witn
ashes, the ash pit was buried under j
ground to the depth of at least 2 and
a half feet The discovery was made
one evening last week about the
time to quit work, and soon it was
talked nbout that a vault had been
found in the cellar of the old house.
A number of people were attracted
to the place. The ashes were care
fully removed by Mr. Smith, and tiie
witnesses to the removal were on the
tip toe of expectancy all the unio of
the operation of tho removal, but
nothing was taken out of the pit or
cavity, but ashes. The sides of the
pit and its floor had once been form
ed of boards, for wood mould adher
ed to the clay sides and bottom of
the cavity. When the mould was
scraped off the clay sides were smooth.
Tho ground or top abov the ashes
was a mixture of old rubbish, egg
shells, bones, broken dishes and clay
enough to cause it to adhere and not
cave in when the ashes were taken
out The general opinion expressed,
was, that it had been a box placed
there, down in the ground, as a place
to hide valuables for some early set
tler, who in his day might perchance
be driven from his home by Indians.
The pieces of broken dishes did not
impress the people ptesent with tho
fact that at the time hostile Indians
inhabited these valleys, the luxury
of eating off of fine dishes was un
known to settlers here and the near
est store was at Carlisle military post
The broken pieces of dishes were
carried away as relics of some
association not well defined in the
mind of the persons that helped
themselves from the mbih on top
of an old ash box that in all probab
ility had been filled for "the purjose
of making soap with. The ground
in tdl probability where it stood was
several feet lower tlian surrounding
ground, and that accounts for the
rubish being on top of the box ; it
was a sort of out of the way place.
When the yard or garden was level
ed np, the most convenient thing to
do with the old osh box and rubish
was to cover it and that was done.
There are a number of places iu Mif
fiintown and Patterson, that have
been leveled np from lower depths
than that but how many ash barrels
or boxes and other rubish lies buried
in such filled np places of course can
not be here stated. Perhaps in ex
cavations that will take place three
quarters of a century hereafter the
excavators will be puzzled to know
how the things that one might expect
to find on top should be dug out of
the ground 5 to 10 feet below its
surface.
A little girl of Henry Mongle, aged
two years, was injured by an ore
team and empty wagon, belonging
to Jacob Sulouff, on the road, in front
of the house, near the second lock,
north of town, on Tuesday evening,
Angust 7th inst, under the following
circumstances. The teamster Tobias
Shotzbarger, had been behind- the
wagon, locking, and unlocking the
same, going down the hill near Men
gle's house, and did not see the child
ou the road. When the child's moth
er, Mrs. Mengle first noticed the child
the team was upon it She screamed
but the teamster could not then stop,
and did not fully comprehend the
cause of the alarm, and the team and
wacon oassed before the child was
reached. It was severely injured
and shocked. The one hind wheel,
at least of a wagon weighing 3,500
pounds passed over tne one nauncn,
and lower part of the body. At this
writing, ednesday Aug o, tne case
is more favorable. Dr. Crawford
was called and conducted the medi
cal and surgical requirements of the
case.

.The Pilgrimage of the Sir Knights to
California and the meeting of the Grand
Army at Denver, in addition to tho crowd
of other people and tonrits on tho go at
this time ot the year, overtaxed the accom
odations of the hotels in the Rocky Moun
tain towns. The experience of J. Merrill
Linn of Lewisburg Union Co., this state,
with a statement of observations as publish
ed in the Lewisburg Chronicle of Aug. 9,
pictures the situation one night at Gun
nison as follows. There is no want ol ef
fort to accomodate, and rooms and lodg
ings were ollered at all sorts of places,
some so doubtful that they werd not accept
ed. The town was lively. Dance bouses ac
tive, and gambling could be seen as you
walked along the street. A room was as
signed to Col. Hazard and myself at the
Brnuswick, but upon inspecting it, I paid
lor my supper and left the Col. sole posses
sor ot the glories. I weot down to the
train and made myself a bed of the seats ,
and had as nice a sleep as a man can have
with his clothes on. On going back to the
station at this time; I stumbled upon Dr.
Aakinson, congressmon-elected from Jnni.
ata, and a friend, on their way to Salt Lake.
They had been at the Bee bee House, Man-
it on. ine ur.s iriena naa walked np

he was blocked np ou a sort of half .sofa

A Sir Knight's Letter.
Sr. Lot is, Monday Aug. 6, 1S33.
1 o inUiricg friends I will give a brief
SKetcn ot our trip tins l.ir. We left liar.
risbiirg at b.J .jiurday morning, arriving
at Allenioun aiiout '., where we were met
by the .Nr Aingtit s ot that place and enn
iluctnl '.o ;ne Aden house for breakfast,
ai .er into e naa a nan nourwalk through
th-.' t-.'wu, when we were taken to the sta-
i:u!i i -.unices escorted by the Allen-
tew ti Sv inputs. Here we joined our train
wiiirb is composed of 6 sleepers and a bag
g..ge car to which wo have access at all
times. We left Alleutown at 11 o'clock
A. M. arriving at Maiich Chunk for din
ner at i o'ciock. Here we bad a good
'junrr mriu. riominerewe naa a nice
rule through the Lehigh valley and
crossing the Vlilkesbarre mountain we bad
one of the finest views up the Wyoming
valley tuat 1 have ever seen. 1 doubt
whether we will see anything to compare
with it on the balance ot the trip. Our
first stop after leaving Pittston was at
bayre where we met Sheriff Hamilton's 3
boys, Uarvy, James and David. James and
Uavia going wun us to hlmira. After
leaving Elmiraonr next stop was at llor
neiisvme ft. i . where we had one of tho
finest dinners that 1 ever partook of along a
railroad. 1 almost forgot to tell yon that on
the way between Pittston and Say re, we
stopped at a place called Saceyrille where
there was a large tub of ice cream
taken on and which was served to us on
the tram. We stopped for breakfast Sun
day morning at West Salem Ohio, and
dinner at Huntingdon Indiana, both ef
which were excellent meals, arriving at
Chicago last evening Sunday about C
o'clock, where we were met by the Knights
and conducted to the Grand Pacific hotel
lor supper. At 8.30, we were again fram
ed in line in the corridor of the hotel and
escorted to the station by the Sir Knights
ot Chicago of which there were probably
lo(J, arriving at the train we were favored
with some Hno singing, and a speech by
the lirand Commander of Illinois, who is
the Treasurer of the commonwealth leaving
there at 9.15 P. M. and arriving here abont
8 o'clock next morning, we were again met
Dy tne sir amgnts or iU Louis and con
ducted to the Southern hotel for breakfast.
At 11 o clock to-day we are taken through
the city in carriages to view the sights,
conducted by the Knights of this place,
and are to leave here about 8 o'clock this
evening for Kansas city and from thence
t. Ucnver, from where I will write again.
