BUTLER CITIZEN
JOHN H. L W. C. NE6LEY. PROP'RS,
Entered at the Postoffiee at Butler MS
second-clcsss matter.
WEDNESDAY,
S. B. SNYDER, ESQ , attorney at law,
has his office in that with A. T. Black,
Esq., Main street, south of Court
House.
ME. OLIVER W. STOUOHTON has
been appointed Postmaster at the
Elora office, Brady township, this
county.
REV. JONATHAN SARVER has resign
ed his charge of the English Lutheran
Church at Leechburg, Armstrong
county, Pa. Bad health was the com
pelling cause to this step.
MR. J. C. RICKETS, of Portersvdle i
has charge of one of the departments
in the new Prospect Academy. Mr.
Rickets has quite a good reputation as
a successful teacher.
JUDGE WALTER Q. GRESHAM, of the
State of Indiana, has been appointed
by President Arthur Postmaster Gen
eral in room of the late Mr. Howe, de
ceased. Mr. Gresham has accepted
the place.
THE Mississippi river was higher
last week than at any time this year
and immense damage continues from
its overflow. Near New Orleans last
Saturday the levees broke and the
water was running through parts of the
city. _____
Ma. MICHAEL STSPP, of Middlesex
township, recently went to Crawford
county, this State, and purchased a
horse that cost him oyer SI,OOO. Such
enterprise deserves success. Our coun
, ty is already known as one raising the
best of horses.
MR. PETER KRAMER, of Middlesex
township, the well known mail carrier
and skillful detective, has been sum
moned to attend the United States
District Court as a juror, at the coin,
ing May term at Pittsburgh. Mr.
Kramer, in that capacity, ' will let no
guilty man escape."
Ufa ZIEGI.ER, of the House and Mr.
Groer of the Senate, came home from
Harrisburg last Saturday and left on
Ifnniity last. Mr. Ziegler was feeling
somewhat unwell but started back to
bis post ol duty. He is of opinion the
session may last till June. Mr. Donly
has not put in appearance here since
be left.last December.
THE "Big Injun," of Mr. George
Vogeley, of this place, has returned
home after being absent for some time
past. About Christmas last he fell
and dislocated his head, and other*
wise received injuries that much dis
figured him. He was sent away for
repairs, and has returned with his
head and war paint on, and can now
be seen at his old stand in the tobacco
and cigar store of Mr. Vogeley.
" Tidings," is the name of a new
religious monthly that will be published
in this place. Its object is to promote
the interest of the churches of this place
and vicinity, by establishing more in
timate relations between them. The
first, and April number, contains much
interesting reading matter. It will be
published by Harry L. Waters & Bro.,
and edited by Rev. J. Q. Waters, at
the low price of 40 cents per year-
We wish Tidings all success possible.
A FREE pipe bill for the transporta
tion of oil has passed in the Senate at
Harrisburg, and may become a law
this session, after long years of effort
made for it. Cooper, the leader against
it, and against everything else in the
interests of the public, was defeated in
bis opposition to this bill as badly as
in that of his opposition to the bill to
prevent the issuing of free passes to
Senators, Members ot the Legislature,
•tc.
BENJAMIN W. BREDIN, ESQ., of
Franklin, Venango county, made our
town a business visit last week and
his old friends were really pleased to
again meet him. Mr. Bredin was
raised in this place and removed to
Franklin some years ago, where he
has prospered in business and stands
among the foremost citizens in that en
terprising city. He has energy and a
good name for fair and honest dealing
—•qualities that last.
Tffli evil effect of one editor being
the PofltManter at his town is now
illustrated at Meadville, this State.
The editor of one of the Republican
jMpers there is Postmaster, and the
lite of the other paper now comes
forward and charges unfair discrimina
tion against the mailing matter sent
from his office. Thiß charge is sup
ported by an affidavit- Whether the
charge made in this case be true or
not, everybody can see at a glance
good reasons why one of two editors
of a place should.not be the Postmas
ter at the same. There is every temp
tation and chance to use the office in
the interest of your own paper.
CORRECTION. —In the account given
in the issue of this paper of March 28
ult., of the doings of a "Bold Thief," in
Oakland township, this county, it is
stated that the said thief first went to
the house of Mr. Simon S. Rcep, and
closed a bargain with him for his farm,
before going to the house of Mr. Bort
mess. This, we are requested to say
was not correct. The scamp first went
to the house of Mr. Bortmess and made
a bargain before he went to that of
Mr. Reep. Mr. Reep closed no bar
gain with him for the sale of his farm.
The rascal was evidently after Mr.
Bortmess, who lived alone and whose
mootsj lie succeeded in stealing.
THE farmers of this county, we find,
are very generally opposed to the bill
introduced in the Legislature to de
stroy hawks, owls, skunks, weasels,
minks, etc They consider these ani
mals and fowls as a benefit to farms
instead of any injury, in that they de
stroy the field mice, grub worms, etc
SENATOR GREER has added his quota
to proposed temperance legislation, by
introducing a bill in the Senate mak
ing it punishable by a fine of $25 for
one person to treat another to intoxi
cating drinks. This bdl doesn't go
far enough. The penalty ought to be
extended to the fellow that treats him
self.—Somerset, (Pa ) Herald.
The above is about as sensible a
criticism on the bill as we have noticed.
If it is wrong to treat others it is
wrong to treat yourself. And "the
fellow that treats himself" is the one
who often does the most injury, not
only to himself but to others. Hut at
the best this treating bill was merely
sticking in the bark of the question.
Let the Legislature, if it wishes to
reach the root of the evil, pass the pro
hibitory Constitutional Amendment
bill now before it. And let it be pass
ed without first being clogged and
burdened down with such amendments
as were put upon it two years ago,
among theu>one givingcompensation to
distillers and dealers for their buildings,
and property, for which Mr. Greer
voted. The bill now before the Legis
lature will test who are the friends of
reform in this matter and who are not.
EXECUTION OF MOHAWK.
While making inquiry for a certain
article we believed published in the
Butler papers about the time the In
dian Sam Mohawk was bung we had
occasion to state the time we believed
the said hanging took place. This
gave rise to very different opinions
among some of our older citizens, as to
just when that time was, some main
taining that it was as late as May or
June in 1844, and that the weather
was warm, etc., while otbers as stout
ly thought it was earlier in that year.
Our own recollection from the first
was that it was about the first of
April, and that the day was a damp or
rather cool one.
On reading our issue of last week
Mr. Aaron B. Hughes of this place was
enabled to remember of and find a copy
of the issue of the Herald, of this place,
of April 10, 1844, containing "Mo
hawk's Confession." This was the
very paper we were in search of, and
we "are much indebted to Mr. Hughes
for the same. But it is so much torn,
and some parts gone, that we fear it
will not answer our purpose fully.
We hope, as the date has now been as
certained, that other friends will con
tinue their efforts in the matter, and
that we may soon receive, from some
on?, p. paper of that date, April 10,
1844, which may be better preserved
than the oae found by Mr. Hughes.
But this paper, while establishing
that the said execution, was previous
to April 10, 1844, yet it in no place
gives the date of the same. To a sees*
tain this we wrote to Mr. Donly at
Harrisburg, knowing it would be re
corded there when the death warrant
of the Governor was i*aued, fixing the
date for the execution. Mr. Donly
has sent us the following copy of tiio
same, by which it will be seen that
Mohawk was hung on March 22,
1844.
STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA, SS., DAVID A.
PORTER, GOVERNOR.
In the name and by the authority of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
David R. Porter, Governor of the
said Commonwealth, to Jama O.
TJampbell, Sheriff of the County
of Butler, Esquire, Sends Greet
ing.
WHEREAS at a Court of Oyer and
Terminer and general jail delivery,
held in and for the County of Butler,
on the 13th day of December, 1843, a
certain Samuel Mohawk wa« tried and
convicted of the crime of murder in
the first degree, and on the 17th day of
January, 1844, (after a motion for a
new trial had been argued and over
ruled) the Court sentenced the said
Samuel Mohawk to be taken hence to
the prison of Butler County, from
whence he came, and thence to the
place of execution, and that he be there
banged by the neck until he be dead.
Now, therefore, this is to authorize and
require you, the said James G. Camp
bell, Sherifi of the said County of But
ler, to cause the said sentence of the
said Court to be executed upon the
said Samuel Mohawk, between the
hours of 10 o'clock iu the forenoon and
2 o'clock iu the afternoon, of Friday
the 22d day of March next ensuing the
date hereof, in the Vianner directed by
the act of the General Assembly of
this Commonwealth passed the tenth
day of April, A. I). 18:54, entitled an
act to abolish public executions; and
for so doing this shall be your sufficient
warrant. Given under my hand and
the great seal of the State, at Harris
burg, the first day of February, one
thousand eight hundred and forty lour
(1844), and of the Commonwealth the
sixty-eighth. BY THE GOVERNOR
CHAS. MCCLURE, Secretary of the
Commonwealth.
Judge McDerniitt on Liquor Li
censes.
Judge McPermitt, of Mercer, has
again stirred up sentiment and com
ment by the promulgation of some
rules governing the granting of licenses
in his district. He will hereafter grant
no applicant a renewal of license to
keep a hotel or eating house who shall
have sold intoxicants to be carried
away from the premises, and will re
voke a license on proof of such offence.
He claims that this is only a reasona
ble construction of the license law, and
necessary to prevent improper persons
obtaining liquor through third parties.
Judge Mcl)ermitt's action is to prevent
the purveying of liquor by third parties
to the class of common drunkards who,
under the license law, are denied ordi
nary gin privileges. Those sufferers
generally have a go-between in the
shape of a friend who can stand up
under the "budge," and who can get a
flaskloaded, which the two divide in
the nearest alley. The Judge's rules
are a severe blow at this alley and
curb-stone industry. -Mew (labile Guar

Free Passes Forbidden.
Tlif State Senate last week succeed
oil in passing the 1•i 11 to prohibit Hail- ;
road companies from granting fret
passes to any other than their officers or
employees. The bill was gut through by
its friends atler every obstacle possible
being put in the way by the opposi
tion to it, led by Senator Cooper, with
whom Mr. Greer, the Senator from
this county, voted on every occasion to
kill the bill, and Mr. Greer voted
against the billon its final passage. Ihe
following are the final proceedings and
vote upon the bill as takt'ii from the j
Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette of,
April 4:
The free pass (juestion that has |
agitated the Senate every since the
opening of the session was finally dis
posed of this morning. The friends of
the substitute introduced by Mr. Bid
dis succeeded in defeating all attempts
at amendment, and passed it finally,
and sent it over to the House for con
currence, after a warm debate that
took up the greater part of the morn
ing session, The bill, as it passed is
so hrief and plain that it can be given
entire as easily as summarized. It is
as follows:
An act to enforce the eight section of
the seventeenth a-ticle of the Con
stitution.
SECTION 1. He it unacted, etc., that
no railroad, railway, or other trans
portation company, nor any ollicer or
agent thereof, shall grant any free pass
or pass at a discount, to any person
except officers or employes of the com
pany.
SEC. 2. Any person violatiug the
provisions of this act shall be guilty
of a midemeanor, and upon conviction
shall be puaished by a line not exceed
ing SSOO, and imprisonment not exceed
ing six months.
When the bill was read the oppo
nents of the measure entered upon the
dilatory tactics of moving to go into
Committee of the Whole for general
amendment, for special amendment,
Ac., which gave rise to spicy debate,
but they were uniformly voted down
The bill was put on third reading and
final passage and went through with
the following vote:

PItOV IDKNEE, April 4, lSS.'t.—The
excitement over to-day't> election was
verv great and an unusually large vote
was cast in consequence. The Repub
lican*, warned by the activity of the
Sprague men, put forth every effort
and surprised themselves for the major
ity they rolled up tor Bourn, which
will settle somewhere between 2,000
and 3,000. The Sprague men began
the fight by counterfeiting the Houru
ballot and attempting to force it upon
the uitwuty, bjjt the trick was detected
iu time to prevent feuy use of
the bogus tickets. From sunrise lo
sunset the Houru (.'lectors worked like
beavers and succeeded in snowing un
der the Sprague ticket in almost every
town in the SUiifi, even in what
Sprague considered hi* own strong
holds and where his follower* had ex
pected big majorities.
There is much comment over the
defeat of Major William Pierce, the
chairman of the Republican State Cen
tral committee, for State Senator. Ho
! was literally wiped up and shaken to
pieces JI is bold ami defiant treatment
of the Johpspu people iu defeating

Roberts' Torpedo Patent.
PTI/'A, March 30.—1n the torpedo
case to day Spcnetr Clinton, of Uuffalo,
made a formal application for a tem
porary injunction restraining the use
of Huberts' patent. A. H. Richmond,
of Meadville, Pa., opposed it in a live j
hour speech, introducing the testimony
of Harvey and others, of Marietta, ().,
taken by a commission. This evidence
was that Harvey and others used iu.
1801 the same process as that patented
by Huberts in ISfifi, 011 which the;
Pennsylvania courts granted an iujune- !
tion, and that the pai.":;L ci'pire.d, and ;
the reissue contained no new principle, j
Hamilton Ward followed, charging I
that the efforts cl Roberts to buy Har- i
ver threw lurid glares backward over
the proceedings of plaintiff for years, j
He claimed that the new patent was I
reissued, and that reports gf the case I
in the United States Supremo Court
during the last two years show every
reissue of the patent declared invalid.
/Justice Cox refused to jfrant the
prelimiußty injunction on the ground
that the* cases were not just the same!
ns passed upon by the Pennsylvania
courts, but he provided that each of j
the fifty defendants should furnish
within ten days, S2OOO security for
any damages they might inflict be- ;
tween this time and May 20, the day
the patent expires, otherwise the in
junction would bis granted.

EDS. CITIZEN :—As some reminis
cences of Mokawk and the Mohawk
war, as it was called at the time,
would seem now to be in order, 1 give
you a couple from memory. The
jlouse, (Mr. Keister's) in which the
Indian wft3 taken had a hull leading
QcroßS the house in which was the
htairs, at the bead of the stairs were
twi>rooms, right and left, and the In
dian played across the head of the
stairs, from one room to the other,
throwing stones and brick-bats, which
he procured from the hearth in one
.room; and his captorj could seldom
tell which room held the Alio ig'n
The men gathered from every quarter
and soon there was quite a crowd;
the last was a stalwart Irish
man, who fo,.!i;J fi. mattock lying by
the spring. He knocktu out the
handle on the stone at the spring and
grasping the weapon thus obtained in
his hand, and hefting it a little, re
marked, "jinlcss he beats the very
deei.il himself, I th'mli with the help of
the Lord we'll t;ike him.'' He started
up the stairs; took a peep in one room,
and got a stroke from the other, and
rolled down the stairs and horn d.i
combat for the rest of the fight.
My other recollection is of a very
worthy young man from the north end
of the county, lie encouraged his

DRUGGISTS KEEP IT
EVERYWHERE.
The Bad and Worthless
nre nevt-r imitated or counterfeited.
This especially true of a family med
icine, and it is positive proof that the
remedy imitated is of the highest
value. As soon as it had been tested
and proved by the whole world that
llop Bitters was tho purest, be*t and
most valuable family on earth, many
imitations have sprung up and began
to steal the notices in which the press
and people of the country had express
ed the merits of H. 15., and in every
way trying to induce suffering invalids
to use their stuff instead, expecting to
make money on the credit and good
name of H B. Many others started
nostrums put up iq sioiilar style to 11.
8., with various devised names iu
which the word "Hop" or Hops were
used in a way to induced people to be
lieve they were the same as Hop Bit
lers. All such pretended remedies or
ayres, on matter what their style or
name is, and especially those with the
word 'TIop" or "Hops'? in their napp
or any way connected with them or
their name, are imitations or counter
feits. Beware of them. nor.p
of them. L ! se nothing but genuine
Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster
of green Hops on the white label.
Trust nothing else. Druggists and
dealers are warned agaiust dealing in
imitations or counterfeits.
