Congressional departments.
There hare been some eliiloges in the

ROWDYISM IN PHILADELPHIA
Ain .last:fltursday, at the meeting of
the ieturn judges in Philadelphia, was
enacted one of those scenes which Intro,
on several occasions, disgraced that city.
It appears that the judges passed a reso
lution inviting Wm. B. Mann andiewis
C. Cassidy, two leading lawyers of the
City, and who are of different polities,
to be :present at the counting of the - re-
This-was-not-in accordan cewi th
the wishes of those eminent Monocrats.
Alderman McMullin and llon.. Sam..
Josephs, and they determined that Mr.
Mann must be kept out, pcacebly if pos
sible, forcibly if need be. As soon as
Mr. Mann was admitted to the room, these
scoundrels with several other members
of the gang broke ,in the doom, and be
gan an attack .on the judges. During
the melee, one of the judges named
Crawford, fired a pistol at one of these
rowdies named Nolan, the shot taking
effect in his neck. After the rowdies
had driven the judges from - the room
they withdrew, :List after a short time
the--judges—m , lts-s.,mined and compkW

A. more high-handed outrage than this
has not been known recently in political
affairs. The intention .of these fellows
was doubtless to wrest the documents and
returns flout the
,judges and destroy.

had received at the polls, and were ,dc
tennined to obliterate the record of it.

the pefice, wig so Lite doors. of the room
allowed to lie broken in, and the
officers despersed thile in the perfopr

We have, in this oeviTrrenee, a lively
illustration of the beauties of Democ

Shay Nolan, who are used generally to
carry out their orders, anti to work up the
details of the election in the strong Dem
ocratic wards, having all been in the
fray. These are the men on whom the
Democracy rely for their majorities on
election day. They marshal the forces,
distribute the corruption funds, dictate
the — candidates, and in short, run the
the whole • Democratic machine for that
great city. A more graceless set of
scou t udrels don't exist anywhere,
and yet under -the present city gov

• TrrtDavenport - Brotlieitg - al,fe an ex 4,

night, to a very large
. and respeCtable
audience. Their. performances were re

familiar With the published accounts of
their doings. The "brothers" consist
Of four persons all told, including the
man that sells the tickets, arranges the
stage furniture, and does the rhetoric
during the performance. Their imple
ments are a cabinet, made of thin walnut
or mahogany boards, some eight feet high,
six feet wide and three feet in depth; a
guitar, tambourine, violin, a brass horn,
and perhaps a hundred feet of bed Cord.
The front of the cabinet consists of three
doors,.which fasten, when closed, by an
ordinary spring ldek ; the middle door
havling a small aperture near the top.
The cabinet is placed - upon two chairs on
the stage, so as not to be in contact with
the floor, the instruments enumerated
are placed within it, thedoors are opened
so that every one can see distinctly all it.
contains, and then the machine is ready
to run.
The brothers then' request the audi
ence to appoint n committee to - inspect
the•box, and to remain on th'e stage dur
ing the performance, so as to prevent
deception or assistance from outside par
ties. After the comMittcp has reported_
that the cabinet has no false floors, sides,
traps or other contrivances, the brothers
enter it, and request the committee to
Lind the'm hand and foot, as Securely as
they know how. This 9s done with a
great deal of care,. and in such a way as
to render any motion of their arms or
feet impossible. The , doors giare then
closed, and immediately, all sorts of
noises are hoard within. The guitar and
violin play at th 2 same time, the tam
bourine is shaken, the bells are rung, •
the born thrown out.on the stage, sev
eral hands appear
,at.the aperture, and
all this simulta,musly. -It would be
impossible for,t, vo -persons to do all these
things at oncVaven if unbound. Just
in the midst of the noise, the doors are
opened and the persons are found bound
just_ as they were when-the doors—w
closed. After several repetitions of these
performances, the doors arc closed for a
very short time, and when opened the
brothers step out on the stage entirely
free.
They then re-enter the'ertbinet, and
less than two minutes are found to be
most securely tied, and in a manner in
dicating
veiy . extraordinary skill in the
process. One of the committee is then
invited to sit with the bmthers in the
cabinet, and after he is securely tied with
one hand resting on each, the •doors aro
closed, and the same sounds are heard:
When the door is opened the violin is
found on the head of the person who is
in the cabinet with the performers, the
guitar on his shoulder, and the hells and
tambourine lying on his knees. At their
.request that the gentleman give an
account of what took place, the audience
is informed that these things were so
placed by hands which appeared mys
teriously. and made quite free with his
person and pockets, and that the lit others
renutined perfectly still all the time. •
After about an hour's performanee
with the cabinet, they give what is termed
their "dark seance." • The whole party
is seated on the stage in full vies ofs.the
audience, each ono having a man not
connected with the party seated
beside him, so as to detect, any move

most mysterious manner. In 'order. to

The committevccommend that a spa ;
Cial premium or a diploma be awarded
to D. 11. Kerns, for the lies E ) display of
poultry or different varietie frem Cum
berland county, He displayed eight va
ricticp; all of excellent qiudity. It is
true that this entry appears small com
pared with that of our enterprising
neighbor, Joseph Snively, jr., of Greon
castle, who is always the largest exhib
itor of poultry at our fairs, and Wle9 has
no less than twenty entries of cltionct
vatieties, in the present fair. But there
• rextensive poultry breeders in Cum
'berland county, and the committee are
of opinion that a premium for the fin
est displayof different kinds owned in
this county,. would attract largely. to this.
interesting and useful department. •
There aro - Several entries, which
though, not awarded any premiums,
(because the committee are limited in
their awards to the best of each- class,)-
aro yet deserving of favorable mention.
They are as followS, viz

ited by John D. Neck eoop of black

. The committee desire to say that the
contributions to the exhibition made by
MpLanalian, Stone & sett manufactur
ers, of Hollkaysbtirg, were extensive,
'and was ovidpnce that no agricultural
implement has escaped their ingenuity.
They furnish every implement which a
farmer can want.
A now patent thresher and separator
was exhibited by . Gardner & Co.,
which attracted the' attention of the com
mittee as an excellent machine, new
and promising, and to which they would
have awarded a premium, but the ma
chine was untried, and from a view of it,
however favorable our opinion, we could
not pronounce positively.

PAI.NTINGS, PHOTOGRAPHS, &C.
The conamit i tee have -examined care
fully, the articles submitted to their taste
and judgment. It is difficult to deter
mine the best collection of photographs,
owing - to :the variety in execution,
style of pictures and ntunbers exhibited.
The large collections of C. L. Lochman
and IL- P. Chapman, demanded the
special attention of the committee and
examinations, 'lire find it
impossible to say that either Dliossesses
such a decided advantage over the - other
as to.;clainr the title of best, and the
premium is, therefore, divided between
the two, viz':
Collection of photographs, C. L. Loch

After listening patiently for more than
three hours to the. expositions, by the
skillful operafOrs in charge of the vari
.us-nrachinesi-of—their-almost—imuune
able excellencies, your committee have
arrived - at,the . unanimous Verdict that it
is beyond fli * Mi. power to decide, deli„
'kitty, in favor of any single machine.
In coming to this conclusion, your
committee dekire to state that each ma
chine presented some points of superi
ority. over all others, but that no single
machine proved to be so far s ( ttperier.as.
to warrant/us in awarding a preydum
which might be susceptible of au

The exquisite taste'and skill displayed
by exhibitors in this depiirtment, ren
dered it most difficult for the committee
to form any conclusion 'as to the most
tneretorious.
Owing to exhibitors entering articles
for exhibition in the wrong class, the
same kinds have, in some instances, been
or avoidably• referred to different corn
_mifitee,s, and thus the first .T:remiuin
awarded to different persons fn• the
same article.

Our Teachers? 65e, entions have :gener

mittee, deeming ex,t,iia efforts in behalf of
education well expended,' desire to make
their'coming meeting excel any effort-of

bring this about ; excellent lecturers
'have been employed, the best the field
affords, who will both entertain and in
struct; leading teachers are selected -to•
conduct sonic exercises, and teachers.
generally are expected to lend. their aid
in making the exercises highly interest
ing and instructive.
most respectfully urge upon alt
teachers of the county, the duty of at
tending and participating. Good teach
ers, wherever and whoever they are; caw
never refuse to make known to their fel
lows the secret of success, or give the
benefit of their experience. Let such

useful. Tofthe young and inexperienced,
those just (Miming the profession, wo
present the necessity as well as' the duty
of attending. All, whatever their aim

Hay() you started life as a teacher?
You have done well; noise 'will gainsay
,your judgment in that respect. The
calling is an honorable one. See that
you are successful in it, and you will be
„laying the foundation for• a successful
future, whether as teacher or otherwise.
It is not 'held that all who attend Insti
tutes become successful tottehersi but it
in Fundy held that all successful teachers
are favorable to well - conducted Insti
tutes, and that none disapprove of them.
If any one class of teachers may be bone
fitted more than another, it is the
younger and inexperienced chinn whose
. .
presence we ,urge, and expeetthat they ,
may hea'r, see and acquire the, elements

fare o f themselves and pupils. Let eah
distri - ct vie with the other in having a
full attendance. . ..
It is sincerely hoped that, the directors •
of the county Will show thee zeal iii the
noble cause,"'hy generously giving their
teachers the full time to attend,' and also
,by their own presence, as matters will
lie , discussed and acted upon in ,which •
they, 'as ollicers,!aro directly interested.
