    HI TLER CITIZEN, ]
JOHN H. K W C 7 NESLEY. PBOP'RS,
Entered at the Post office at Butler ass
second-classs matter.
~~A number of Brooklyn clergymen
aaed the revised New Testament in
their pulpits on Sunday last.
THE Republicans of Meadville, Pa.,
fired one hundred gunß on Friday last
as an expression of their approval of
President Garfield's action on recent
nominations he made to the U. S.
Senate.
HON. S. H. MILLEB, of Mercer, rep
resentative in Congress for this district,
was in Washington City last week, ac
companied by H. B. Bowser, Esq, of
Mercer, who, we see it stated, is an ap
plicant for a consulship.
COL. Thomas A. Scott, late President
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
•nd long distinguished as an eminent
railroad man, died at his residence in
Philadelphia on Saturday evening
last, in the 57th year of his age.
IT is stated there were only four
votes in the United States Senate
against the confirmation of Judge Rob
ertson as Collector of the Port of New
York, to wit: Cameron, of this State ;
Ingalls, of Kansas ; Farley, of Califor
nia, and Jones, of Nevada.
ALL subscribers who have not at
tended to payment of arrears are desir
ed to do so during the coming June
Courts. These back amounts are need
ed to pay paper bills, etc., which should
have been paid long since. Subscrib
ers in distant parts of the county can
send by neighbors attending court.
CAPT. JOHN F. DBAVO of Beaver
county, has been appointed by Presi
dent Garfield as surveyor of the Port
of Pittsburgh. This is a good and
worthy appointment and a direct blow
at "bossism" in this State. The strug
gle for the place was a long and bitter
one, and much of the success of ('apt.
Dravo is due to the efforts of the Hon.
Thomas M. Bayne, member in congress
from the 23rd. Allegheny district. We
congratulate both Capt. Dravo aud
Col. Bayne on their success.
.4LI. HESIGXKI).
SINCE Conkling resigned his seat in
the United States Senate the country
generally seems resigned to the same.
President Garfield is resigned. Secre
tary Blaine and the whole of the Cabi
net are resigned. The remaining Sen
ators were go resigned as to immedi
ately confirm the President's appoint
ments by an almost unanimous vote
The Republican party, with a very
few exceptions, is resigned, and all ap
pearances indicate that the whole world,
including the Empire State and the
"imperial" Senator, will remain resign
ed.
COTTKT—TRIAL OF WHITE.
Thz regular Jane term of oar Courts
will commence on Mopday week, June
6th, and continue two weeks. The
trial of William H. White, indicted for
the murder of Charles Egan, rt Millers*
town last March, is expected to come
off during the first week. We will
make arrangements to give the proceed
ings of this important case in the Citi
un, and will endeavor to give them as
fully as possible. To any not now re
ceiving the paper the present would
therefore be a good time to order it.
The services of all friends in extending
the circulation df the Citizen will be
duly appreciated.
It is unfortunate it at Americans are,
as a rule, afflicted with short memories;
otherwise, if ex-Senator Conkling had
shopped to think a minute, he would
have realized that his 'Senatorial cour
tesy' was not worse wounded than he
had wounded others. In February,
1874, Grant was President, Sumner
and Boutwell Senators from Massachu
setts, and Thomas Russell Collector of
Boston. At Ben Butler's request,
General Grant sent to the Senate the
name of W. A. Simmons, then a But
ler 'striker,' for Collector. Boston bus
iness men objected ; Boston merchants
went to Washington and protested; a
majority of Massachusetts Congress
men petitioned the President to with
draw Simmons; both of the Senators
opposed him ; but Mr. Conkling led the
movement in favor of Simmons and be
was confirmed. But perhaps Charles
Sumner and Mr. Boutwell were never
entitled to Senatorial courtesy.— Phila.

A CARD.
To the Republicans of Butler County:
I bad hoped to have a fair canvass
before the Republican voters of tbia
county, believing that a nomination
made in any other way was not worth
making and rould end in defeat at the
November election. I believe that
every citizen of our county has the
right to be a candidate and have a fair
bearing before his party as to his
character, past record, individual merit
and ability to fill the position he as
pires to, and deny that any man or set
of men have the right to dictate who
shalljfill our offices. The people are or
ought to be the jury. In canvassing
last week I found the old campaign
dodge had been resorted to in my case,
viz : That I had withdrawn, or that I
would not be a candidate at the time of
the Primary election. No honorable
* man will circulate a report of that kind
unless be knows it to be true. 1 here
by publicly denounce it as a falsehood.
I entered the field not as a tool for any
man or in any man's interest, but to
make the nomination myself if I could
by an honest and honorable effort.
It has also been circulated that I re
ceive a pension of $72 per month,
which is not true. The arm is ampu at
• ed below the elbow and I receive the
pension allowed, which is $lB per
month. 1 bilieve I am the only one on
the list for Sheriff who receives a pen
sion—why ?
Republicans, I am now before yon
soliciting vour support and would be
thankful for it, if you deem me worthy
of it; but if you fiud any other man
who has sacrificed more for his country,
is more deserving, better qualified, or a
better citizen, vote for him. Let each
man use his judgment and vote as a
free American citizen and not as a part
of a machine. I remain,
Your obedient servant,
JAMES B.STOREY.

ALBANY, N. Y. f Mav 18.—In the
senate to-day when the dispatch an
nouncing Robertson's confirmation was
read the wildest excitement ensued.
Amid cheering and clapping of hands
Mr. Sessions jumped upon his chair
and gave three cheers for Robertson,
while Mr. Husted, who had come in
from the assembly, also leaped upon a
chair and aided in the cheering. Mr
Loomis then called for three cheers for
President Garfield, which were given
with a will. A general handshaking
followed, anrd which the senate ad
journed. Robertson appeared to be
deeply affected.
WATEBTOWN, N. Y., May 18.—The
Republicans held an enthusiastic meet
ing here to-nigbt. Resolutions were
passed censuring Conkling and P'att
and sustaining the administration. The
members of the legislature from this
section were asked to labor for the
election of senators in accord with tLe
administration. Salutes 6 red
over Robertson's confirmation.
COOL SPRING, N. Y., May 18—The
Republicans of this town, to-night fired
a salute of one hundred guns in honor
of President Garfield for nominating
tor collector of the port of New \ ork
William H. Robertson.
HUDSON, N. Y., May |8. —The ad
ministration Republicans to-night firef}
a salute in honor of Robertson's confir
mation. Petitions are being circulated
protesting against the re-election of
Conkling and Piatt.
ROCHESTER, N. Y., May 18. —The
news i f the confirmation of Robertson
and Merritt was celebrated here this
evening by one hundred guns.
ALBANY, N Y , May 18.—A salute
of one hundred guns was fired here to
day in honor ol the coufirination of
llobertson.
CONK.LINO'S POOR SHOW.
ALBANY, May 18.—The anti-ma
chine Republicans here are putting iu
some vigorous work, under the spur of
remonstrances against the return of
Coukling and Piatt and the hope of
Robertson's confirmation. The Repub
lican geueral committee of Albany
county has passed a re-olution eulogiz
ing President Garfield and denouncing
the resignations of the late Senators.
Petitions agaiust the re-election ot
these gentlemen have begun to pour in
from the Republican strongholds in the
interior of the State.
A remonstrance was read in the sen
ate, signed by all the Republican
voters in the town of Homer, Cortlandt
county, except two, protesting against
the return of Conkling or Piatt. The
Robertson forces are now believed to
consist of thirty in the assembly and
sixteen senators. Should this estimate
prove reliable, the machine 'jig is up.'
A feature of the canvass is the pres
ence of noted Democrats from all parts
of the State. They are not likely to
exert themselves much to return the
late Republicans. Governor Cornell
still refuses to notify the senate of the
resignations, holding that tbe notice
sent to the house is legally sufficient to
warrant An election next Tuesday. It
is believed that, in case be does so, the
upper house will refuse to admit Conk
ling's letter of explanation, on the
ground that it is an insult to Judge
Robertson, tbe presiding officer. Ar
rangements have been made for a sere
nade and jubilee here to-night in case
the collector is confirmed.
CONKLING AND PLATT WON'T BE RE
ELECTED.
The general belief here is that Conk
ling and Piatt can't secure a re-election.
Tbe friends of tbe administration have
made a vigorous canvass of the legisla
ture during the past two days, and now
feel certain that they can command
within a few votes of a majority of the
Republican members before the time
for the election. They think the tide
of public sentiment will be so strong in
favor of the position of the administra
tration that two new senators will
surely be chosen.
THE STRENGTH OF THE inDEPENDENTS
It is rumored that forty-five members
have already signed a paper pledging
themselves not to vote for the re-elec
tion of Conkling and Piatt. There are
one hundred and six Republicans in
bo<h houses, so that only nine more are
needed to obtain a majority in the cau
cus. If the stalwarts hold out. it is
possible there may be a deadlock simi
lar to that which occured in Pennsyl
vania this winter, in which case it is
not improbable that the election may
be postponed until next winter. Three
prominent assemblymen who were
among the fifty.seven signers of th
document protesting against hobert
son's confirmation, referred to in Conk
ling's letter of explanation, have come
out as open friends of the administra
tion. It is expected that others will
make a similar declaration shortly.
SOME OF THE CANDIDATES.
Among the candidates mentioned
are Cbauocey M. I)epew, Sherman S.
Rodgers, Congressmen Frank Hiscock
and Warner Miller, ex-Governor Reu
ben E. Fenton, cx-secretaay William M
Evarts, ex-Vice President William A.
Wheeler, and Chief Justice Charles J.
Folger.
THE TURNING OF THE TIDE.
The Express, (Tammany) Albany
dispatch says : 'Conkling is politically
dead, and Robertson, since bis confir
mation, has been intrusted with the
command of the party The substitu
tion ha? been endorsed by a large ma
jority of the Republican State Sena
tors and Assemblymen, as well as by
leading members of the party in vari
ous sections of the State, who have
sent close on to two thousand telegrams
to the new leader, conveying words of
cheer and congratulations.'
The Telegram also says a dispatch
was received from Albany setting forth
that Judge Robertson declared posi
tively that he would not take possession
ol tbe office of Collector until Conkling
and Plait were beaten.
At Jamestown, the home of Fenton,
arrangements are making for a demon- J
stration in favor of Garfield's adminis
tration.

former Mexican pension act, which was
substantially similar to the one under
consideration.
The senate refused to go into com
mittee of the whole for amendment, and
Mr. JSyerbart was prevented from in

to perfect the bill by objections from

of tbo Leguloiiae Uecqrd were on the

AFTERNOON SESSION.
At the afternoon session of the
house Mr. Colbcru called up the seuate
resolution as amended by the house
committee providing for a final adjourn
ment of the legislature on May 26.
Mr. Graham moved to indefinitely
postpone, which placed the question
before tbe house.
Mr. Colborn could see no reason
why a day for final adjournment
should not be fixed. All necessary
legislation could been acted in ten days'
time. The members might remain
here until August and would still have
two or three hundred bills untouched
on the calendar, and he thought for the
good of tbe state they ought never to
be touched.
Mr. Ruddiman thought the resolu
tion ought not to be passed until the
mandamus bill is enacted into a law
and tbe legislature given an opportu
nity to assert its rights and vindicate
its dignity.
Mr. Myers said the day ought to be
fixed More work would be accom
plished and there was no reason why
this mandamus bill could not lie passed
afterwards. The probabilities were
that the bill would only be vetoed
again.
Mr. Ruddiman replied that he did
not know by what authority Mr.
Myers had spoken. But it made no
difference whether this bill was vetoed
or not. The legislature ought to
remain here and pass it over and over
agaiu until a law liad been secured
under which the body could assert its
rights.
Mr Wolfe made some remftrki in
reference to the mandamus bill: said
he di<! not think it was unconstitution
al. In its present shape it would prob-
I ably W acceptable to th© governor.
Mr. Amerman was in favor of re
maining until all thu preat reform
measures were passed, and the work
accomplished.
Mr. Colborn said they were not here
to get up a law suit with the officers of
the commonwealth. Tbey ought not
to remain here simply for the purpose
of licking the governor and attorney
general. They ought to do this work
and not meddle with what was none
of their business.
Mr Ruddintan said, we have made J
a contract with the state, have left
our business and families, to transact
her business. When an officer of the
commonwealth thrusts in our faces
that we will not be permitted to fulfill
our contract, we have a right to pass
any number of writs of mandamus, in
order that we may appeal to the su
preme court and determine if we are
correct in the conception of our con
tracts.
Mr. Bierly said the only reason for
opposing this resolution is that the
state treasurer may be compelled to
pay members the extra sqoo. Thp
people of the state were anxiously
awaiting for an adjsnrnment. The
legislature is simply remaining here as
a menace.
Mr. Wolfe answered that this was
nlacing the members in a ful«e position,
'rhere is legislation hanging in the
senate which it was hoped to defeat
bv parliamentary tactics and delay.
This reform legislation, mentioning
the telegraph anti-monopoly bill in the
house, the recorder bills and the frep
pipplwe bill and otters in tlio senate,
were demanded bj the people, al
though some people were opposed to
them. [Applause.] The house has
prepared the field of legislation and
ought not to go home viitbuut reaping
the harvest. He was tired of, this
cheap buncombe about the people de
manding an adjournment. This legis
lature has done as good work as any in
twenty weaps, yUCStiot) Pj
law iuvolved in this case that shoula
be settled definitely.
A motion by Mr. Ruddiman to post
pone for the present was agreed to by
the following vote: yeas, llOj nays, 44.
EVENING SESSON.
The b< njse met at p. m. for the
consideration of the bill empowering
the court ot Dauphin county or courts
within a radius of sixty miles from the
state capital to issue writs of manda
mus on state officers.
Mr. {'covins moved to indefinitely
postpone the further of
the bill and demanded the yeas and
nays. There were 132 against the
motion and 14 for it.
The bill then passed second reading
and the house adjourned until 0 a. ni.
to-morrow.

The bark Anna lately arrived at
New York in ballast from London to
Read, Lauder & Co., after a most
eventful voyage. One of the princi
pal incidents is entered upon the cap
tain's log book a» follows ; February
28, 3 P. M., latitude 42° 31' north,
longitude 35° west, hard gale blowing
and ship running under lower foretop
sail and main sail, sighted a large
whale over bows. The fish bore down
on us, and struck ship on the port side
of the stern, and knocking the foreport
into matches and kindling wood ; sound
ed pumps, but no leak ; whale went off,
leaving a track of blood behind.' Cap
tain McPbail states that he was sur
prised at the whale dashing right into
a large vessel in mid ocean. He says
that when he first saw the big fish it
was rolliug and spouting water 15 feet
high. He had not then any idea it
would charge his vessel, but soon dis
covered that the w hale meant business.
As the whale came on he luffed a little
to prevent it from strikiug the side of
the vessel and ripping a plank off. It
dashed by and just gave one slap with
its tail that fairly kuoeked the cut wat
er of the boat off from the 11 inch mark
to the keel. He thinks it was stunned
and hurt.

I saw so much said about the merits
of Hop Bitters, and my wife who
was always doctoriug, and never well,
teased me so urgently to get her some,
I concluded to be humbugged again ;
and I am plad I did, for in lees than
two months use of the Bitters my wife
was cured and she has remained so for
eighteen months since. I like such
humbugging.—H. T. St. Paul.—

—A 'parlor cattle car, with twenty
head of cattle, arrived in New York
the other day from Cincinnati, the eat- j
tie havinar come through without un
loading. The cattle were fed and water
ed liy a mechanical contrivance operated
from the end of the car. With an or
dinary car the cattle would have had
to be unloaded for feeding three times,
with considerable injury and delay. The
superiority of the new car was shown j
not only in its increased capacity and
the superior comfort of the animals,
but also in the savincr in weight by di
minished loss, which is usually about ;
t n per cent. With the 'parlor' car the j
loss was under three per cent.
