Th« late election in Canada turned on the question of reciprocity with the United States, asd those against it, the conserva tives, seem to yet be in the majority, though they lost eleven seats in Ontario and seven in Quebec. Ami a protracted struggle, continuing over two months, John M. Palmer, the Democratic nominee for 17. 8. Senator, be fore the Illinois legislature, was elected last Wednesday. The Republicans had 100 members the Democrats 101, and the Alliance men 3, and on the 154 th ballot two of the Alliance men voted with the Democrats. Palmer started in politics as a Democrat was a Republican during the war, and was elected Governor of the State as a Republican in 1868, but he went out with Greely in 1872, and baa been in full fellowship with the Democrats since. Thi bill now before the Legislature re garding the pollution of streams would probably be declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court for the reason that it makes exceptions in favor of the drainage of coal mines and the sewerage of cities and is therefore not general in its charac ter, aa ia provided in the Constitution. If it should peas, and beoame a law, and the Supreme Court would not annul it the half salt water and half oil wells of the Hundred-foot fields would hare to be plugged; and the large tanneries of the northern part of the State would have to be closed. The queetions of water supply, drainage asd sewerage an very extensive ones, and any laws regarding them should spply impartially. Harriaburg Notes. In the House, last Thursday, Franklin's bill amending the sth and Bth sections of the Brooks liquor law, allowing applicants for license to go outside their districts for bondsmen, and reducing the license fee in cities wae carried after a hot fight by a vote of 194 to 47. Capt Mease teetiiied be fore the Book Trust committee that GofTs arithmetic, which sells at 85 cts, could be manufactured for 15 eta, and that primers could be made for 4or 5 oents each. The Road mi was amended in the Senate so as to abolish the office ot County Engineer and place the letting of contracts in the hands of the Co. Commissioners. The bill giving the Clarion Co,. Normal School SSO. 000 wae reported affirmatively, and Senator Showalter introduced a bill giving the SHpperyrock school the same amount On Friday, the Anti-discrimination bill introduced by Mr Scanor ot Indiana county was reported negatively from the Judiciary General Committee. The action of the Committee on this bill wae a great suprise, end it wae said that but six members of the Committee were present when the bill wae acted npon. On Monday the Baker ballot reform bill wae debated in the House, and Flinn's two wharf billa were reported affirmatively. On Tuesday a bill was introduced giving borough officials the right to levy a cent on tbe dollar, Instead oi i cent as at present The Board of Pardons refused finally to interfere in the ease of the Nioelys, who will be hung April 2d. The Republicans of both branches of the Legislature held a caucus Tuesday night ana reeolved upon closer action. In the House Monday. Mr. Seyfert of Lancaster offered the following. Whxsjlas, Tbe Hon. Thomas B. Reed, of Maine, Speaker of the Fifty-first Con gress, by his ruling on tbe formation of a quorum, made vital the principle that Rep resentatives in Congress were elected to transact and not obstruct, delay and pre vent tbe legislative affairs of the nation and by his courage and firmness in enfor cing his ruling, secured the passage of im nortant and neoeuary measures;; therefore be it Rbsolvxd. That the House of Rep. heartily indorsee the action of speaker Reed and commends his course to be wise, states manlike and patriotic and deserving the thanks of the people. This eaaaed a tumult but it was finally adopted b7 a party rote. Mr. Skinner, a leading Democrat from Fulton Co, then offered tbe following. Rxso&ra. That the course of our senior United States Senator ia aiding to defeat the Federal elections bill merits the cordial and most hearty approval of this House. Which tbe Republicans voted down. Ufaahlnrtim w>>nin|ion notes. Salisbury baa accepted Blaine's plan for settling the Bering Sea dispute. Among tbe law* passed by the late Con gress was one for the erection of a new mint in Philadelphia, but the friends of tbe bill forgot to Uex tbe neeemry appropria tion to it aad it therefore beoomes a nollity. The Pbiladelphiane are mad abont it and blame their Congressman. Centre Twp. Items. Mr. Alfred Brown is preparing to bnild a new house this Spring. He fainted while at his work a few aays ago and has been in poor health since. Jacob Brown sold two, 2-yr-old, short horn steers laat week that weighed 2800 pounds. A fine colt belonging to Jas. Cranmer broke a log while running in tbe field a few days ago, and Cranmer has swnng it and wiH try to save it. John M. Brown lost a fine horse a short time before. Its leg was broken by a kick from another horse, and it had to bo shot. A Complete Success. Brimstone School, conducted by W R. Hockenbury, closed its winter term on March 6th with a grand exhibition. Tbe house was crowded to its utmost capacity and the speakers all deserve praise for their brilliant speaking and graceful ges tures. We have not been to a better entertainment for years; and altbongh it was late we felt sorry when tbe farewell hymn, "Shall we meet beyond the river," was sung, and we felt as though we would like to meet for another entertainment be fore long. It vu opened by a song of welcome by the sebool. There were about fifteen or twenty declamations and re hearsals, and all did excellently. Maggie Hijndman, a small girl, sang a song entitled "Pirst love making," which was very good, aad there were also four dialogues which were very good. While the scholars ware preparing for their plays, Misses Jennie and Roee Stewart favored ns with a duet. "Our way across tbe sea." Tbe farewell hymn was then sung, and I know that teacher and scholars will all join with me and thank ns for our good order. » Y. X. DUATHB OGDEN—At his residence in Middlesex twp.

(Continued.) DCrFT-MTMAB-SKDWICK SQUASH. To the next square on same East side of if»in street, we give the above name. The firtt lot, on passing over alley from Mr. Charles Duffy's store, might with properity be given the name of Walker, as the late David Walker, Esq. U said to have been its owner within fifty years. But -our first recollection of the person living on that corner was the late Mr. Peter Duffy, and as his son Charles is now its owner we give it the name above. Mr. Anthony Kockenstein with his tin and hardware store is the present occupant of this Duffy part of thia lot. Mrs. E. Greib is owner and occupant of the next pert, with her fine jewelry store on same. Mrs. Julia Niggle is present owner and occupant of remaining part. The late Mr. Andrew Marshall,among others, was owner, or lived at one time where either Mrs. Greib or Mrs. Niggle now live. The next and middle lot of this square is the Doctor Neyman one. Fifty years ago and more his mother with her family lived in a small brick which stood where the large one erected by the Doctor now stands. The gable end of this small brick stood to the street In it at one time it is said the late Mr. Mark McCandless was there with his shoe making shop. Mr. McCandless afterwards removed to Cherry township and is deceased bnt a few years ago. Doctor Neyman has lived upon this lot for 60 years and more, and has made the improvements which now constitute his fine residence and office. It is one of the lots that has bad bat few changes in owner ship. The next lot was generally know as the gedwick lot. The late Joshua J. Sedwick owned and lived upon the corner part at least of thia lot He was a saddler by trade and had his shop there. The post office wes there for eight years, between 1861 and 1860, Mr. Sedwick having first been appointed postmaster under President T.inwnin and holding the office for two terms. The people of the southern part of the town thought it a good deal of hard ship to heye to go that far for their mail and when present Mr. F. M. Eastman was appointed to succeed Mr. Sedwick. he removed the office up to the room of present George Beiber building, now occupied by the "Ten Cent Store," where it was kept until Mr. Eastman was suoceeded by Mr. Thomas B. White, who removed it further up, first to a small building that stood where A. & H. Beiber grocery store now stands, and shortly afterward to Cunning ham street, rear of Troutman new building and where the Herald is now published, where Mr. White kept it during his term in office, and where Miss Robinson who succeeded him kept it until removed to its present location in Doctor Byers' building. So it will be seen the post office has been moving southward and more towards the center of population. Mr. Eastman is now postmaster under a recent re-appointment to the office. The old Sedwick lot is now owned by Mr. Charles Duffy and Mr. Sam Teun* Hop has his Chinese Laundry there in the corner part These Chinese names by tbe way are queer and often made to spell like English ones. "Sam" in this case is peculiarly English, and "Hop" is a very American word. However we have no reason to doubt but that "3am Teung Hop'' came by hi* name honestly in China and brought it over here in as good shape as he could. That part of the buildings on this lot next to Doctor Neyman was the property and residence of the late Rev. Mrs. Niblock, who lived there until her recent death. The first recollection we have of this part was tbe living there of a Rev. Mr. Hilton of the Episcopal Church. Afterward* the late Mrs. James Bredin and family who come from Carlisle, Pa. lived there for some years. The present Rev. Mrs. Wil liam White, Mrs. Elisabeth Porterfield, Mrs. John Graham, Esq. and their brother James Bredin, Jr. deceased, were members of this family. In later years Ex-Sheriff John Bcott and others lived there. This is now the property of Mr. Charles Dnffy. Mr. John H tide brand and Son have now a moat shop in the front room whero Mrs. Niblock might often been seen setting. Another meat shop, that of Mr. Blymiller, is between there and tbe laundry of Mr. Bam Hop. WALnKB—HASLKTT—PUBriAIfCE SQL*ARB. On opposite aide of the street is the square to which we give above name. The late David Walker, Esq. father of present Lewis P. Walker, Esq. owned the ground, 90 years ago, where now stand the store lately occupied by Mr. Adam Trontman <t Son, and the house, sjiop and office of Jacob Keck, Esq. and the house and saddlery shop of Mr. Joseph Kockenstein. ▲bout 1847 Mr. Walker erected on this ground the block of buildings now standing there. It was called Walker's Block, ex tending from the corner of Mr Troutman to the then residence lot of the late Hon. Samuel A. Purviance, now Col. John M. Thompson. When this block was erected it was considered the largest and finest in the then town. Mr. Walker bad enlarged Mifflin street, then an alley, by adding 20 feet to same from his own grojnd. He owned at that time the lots or ground on Mifflin street, North side, down to where he then lived, the present James Borland property. This enlargement of Mifflin made the corner lot more desirable as a business place. The first store on this corner we think was that of present Mr. L. Stein and late Bernard Roessing. Then the late James Campbell and present H. J. Klinglar bad a store there. The late Mr. Charles Wiseman was there with a jewelry •tore and shoe shop. Following him were Mr. Adam Troutman and Mr. George Weber. Mr. Jacob Boos bought out Mr. Weber and the firm became Troutman &. Boo*, who kept store there until Mr. Troutman purchased the interest of Mr. Boos, since which time this corner became and is now the property of Mr. Adam Troutman It is now occupied by Messrs Campbell k Templeton as a furniture store. Jacob Keck, Esq is present owner of the greater part ot the middle lot ol this square. Mr Joseph Rockenstein is owner or other part. Mr. Walker himself lived for a time where Mr. Keck now is. The late Hon. William Haslett lived there in part of same for some yearn. His paper, "The lf'hiy," was published for some years in the upper story of what is now Esquire Keek's merchant tailoring shop. Mr. Haslett removed " The H'huj" there from the south wing of the old (first) Court House, where, about 1850, he published it after leaving south end of town, spoken of. "The Whig" continued to be published there until changed into "T he Butler American," also published by Mr. Haslett for a number of years, between 1853 and 1864. About 1807 Mr Haslett established another paper called "The I'resa ' which he published a short time, when its material'was sold by bim to the writer of this, who in April 1860, had purchased the "Citkbk," then called the "Amsbican Citizkx." Mr. Haslett had been an active journalist for near twenty years. As an Editor he was able and wrote with a great deal of elegance and clearness. As a man he was a warm friend, liberal, generous and open banded. He exercised a strong political influence in the old Whig party of this county and was sent to the State Senate by that party,in 1849. In 1863 and 1864, he was elected to the House of the Legislature by the ftepnhlican party. He • >OTO . «„ I From the above It will be observed that | about 1853 there was a change in name of j newspaper*, the name of "American" be coming fashionable about then' The rea son for taking this name may be of interest to some at present It arose from the breaking np of the Whig party in 1852, and the rise of the American party upon its ruins. The cause of the breaking up of the Whig party wa* the defeat of General Win field "Scott, its candidate for President in 1852. And the cause of this defeat was the abandonment by Whigs of their po sition on the slavery question, then great ly agitating the comtry. When they nomin' ted Gen. Scott they put him upon a "milk and water" platform on the slave ry question. It was said at the time that it was no better on that question than was the Democratic party and platform. Tbi9 so disgusted the great mass of the Whigs that thev became lukewarm and indiffer ent, and the result was the defeat of Gen. Scott and the election of Pierce the Demo cratic candidate. Gen. Scott received the votes of but four States, and the effect was an immediate effort for the formation of another partv to take the place of the former great W'hig one. The name Amer ican was given this new party. Just where it was lormed. or how, or when, no body seemed to know or could tell. It had a secret feature in it as to membership, and it spread "like wild fire" over the whole Nation. Candidates of both and all par ties rushed to get into it. Its meetings were held in out of the way places and its memoers were initiated in barns, sta 'les and even in coal banks, as was said. They would not acknowledge being members, and if asked if they were their general re ply was that they "knowed nothing about it." Hence they came to be called "Know Nothings" and the party the "Know Nothing Party." But people, tired of the old parties, joined it and it swept nearly everv State in the Union dur ing the year- 1853-4 and 5. It obtained a majority in Coiigress, anu Governors anil State rjid county officers were elected by it during those three years. Some amus ing things rijibt be told of its effects in Butler ci.u .i -. <»n candidates. A Demo cratic i-.r . • '•, ■ r iustanee, who had qnietly jon.L. elected by nearly 2000 majoritv ov.-r .. s old Whig opponent who had declined to join it, and a Whig who had quietly joined it was elected by about the same majority over his Demo cratic opponent who refused to join it. It began to break up in 1856 and the Repub lican party rapidly arose in its place, gath ering to itß ranks manv old Democrats who were dissatisfied with the position of their party on the slavery question. The name "American" fjr papers began to drop on with the dropping oat of the American party, otherwise called the "Know Noth ing Party." Its principles were hostility to Catholic* and foreigners in general and their holding office in particular. Where Mr. Joseph Kockenstein has his present fine saddlery shop, part of the old walker block, were many stores within the last 50 years. The first there we think was that of a Mr. Orinond, followed by the late Charles Wiseman,the late Sheriff John Scott, and the late Campbell E. Purvianee, Esq. Mr. Jacob Boos became owner of it and lived and kept store there for a short time. He probably purchased from Mr. Wiseman and sold to Mr. Kockenstein, who is present owner of this part of this square. PCRVIAKCK LOT. This brings us to the lot and former residence of the late Hon. Samuel A. Puiviance, no-r the residence of Col. John M Thompson, who bought it of ilr. Purvianee, about 1859. Mr. Purvianee erected the large house standing there about 1840. He also erected the office there use 1 by him hb bis law office lor many years. Col. John M. Sullivan was a law partner with him between 184»> and 1853 Then Col. Thompson was partner with Mr. Purvianee. They were followed by Mr. Thompson and Hon. John 11. Mitchell, present United States Senator iron the State of Oregon. Mr. Mitchell left here about 1800. Col. Thompson with his son continued to practice law there until they removed to the Diamond, where tbey n.iw are. The office is at present oc cupied by Doctor W. K. Titzel as his medical office. SAIILKL A. prRVIAKCE. Much has been spoke:, aud written of the Hon. Samuel A Purvianee since his death. But no word of praise or encomium of him, has ever been too great. He was a citizen of Butler whom all respected,and all know ing him will continue to respect his memory. This respect arose from the high character of the man, bis pure life, his private integrity, his public services, and his honorable bearing in all his intercourse with liis fellow citizens Mr. Purvianee was a good man. an honest man, and an enterprising,useful citizen in and to Butler. His charnct -r was appreciated by the people and they made him their repre tentative in the State Legislature, 1838 Previous. 1837, he was chosen a member of the Convention to reform the State Con stitution, which gave us the Constitution of 1837-183 H. Then he was twice elected to Congress, 1854 and 1856, serving with credit and distinction. He was Attorney General of the SUte for a time. When the Slate Constitution was again reiorroed, 1872, 1873, he was sent as a delegate t > that Convention by the people of Allegheny County, in which he then resided. He also filled other positions of trust and houor. In political aud public aflairs ho was always active and influential, in the practice of his profession of the law lie was always honorable. Asa man he was always a gentleman, pleasant and agree able. . _ ~ After serving his time .'n Congress Mr. Purvianse removed from here to Allegheny City, about 1859, where he practiced his profession and lived until he died, ia Feb ruary. 1882, in the 74th, year of his age. tlAVIl) WALKKB, KS<j. A ward is due to the memory of Mr. David Walker who we have seen was closely identified with this wjuare, build ing all the house* upon it except the Purviance, now Thompson one. Mr. Walker was a plasterer by trade and also carried on brick making. Ho was indus trious, and about 1850 was one of the largest property owners ol the town. He was a Jurtice of the I'eace iu the town for a time. When he left the house he lived in, below Klingler's mill, and now the property of Mr. James Borland,as stated, bis brother, the late Mr. Nathaniel Walker, went to live there and also carried on brick making there Mr. Nathaniel Walker »»< the father of our present Cant. Samuel Walker and Clarence Walker, Lsq. Shortly after this the project of building the ill fated North Western Kailroa.l began, about 1853, anil Mr. David Walker undertook the con tract of excavating the deep aDd long cut on same about a mile or two west of town. This Kailroad enterprise was unfortunate ana fell through, about 1855, involving Mr. Walker in its iailnre to su«h an extent as to result in the loss of all his property here. He retnmed to and worked at his trade until the war of the late Rebellion broke out. when, 1861, he accompanied the Butlb. boys, Company IJ. of the 7Hth Regiment, to KentueUj' and Tennessee. Here he was in charge of the sick in the hospitals and was otherwise attentive to and useful to the soldiers. He was a charitable man and always good and liberal toward* the poor. He died while in tiie army,at Howling (ireen, Kentucky, in 1802, in the 59th year of his age. His remains were brought home here lor interment.
