    THE JOURNAL
Huntingdon, Wednesday, January 13, 1847.
QD- Mr. Morrison of the Senate, and
D. Blair, Esq., of the House, have our
thanks for early copies of the Gover
nor's message.
Q - Thanks to Hon. Alex. Ramsey,
for pub. doe's.
No Tax on Tea and Coffee.
It will be seen by our Congressional
Proceedings, that the House of Repre
sentatives, on the 4th inst., adopted a res
olution declaring it INEXPEDIENT TO
LAY A TAX ON TEA AND COFFEE.
The vote stands-1 15 to 4s. We
think this is an indication of public opin
ion which Mr. Polk and his advisers will
be able to comprehend.
BITTEN BY A MAD HORSE—RECOVERY
OF THE PATIENT.—BIair Woodcock, who
resides near M'Connelstown,in this coun
ty, recently had his lower lip totally bit
ten off by a mad horse. Dr. Orlady be
ing sent for, performed a labia plastic
operation with complete success. An
excision was first made separating all
the mutilated fragments. A new lip was
then fashioned out of parts taken from
the cheeks. The deformity is now al
most entirely removed ; and the new
feature promises fair to become, in a
a short time, as sightly as the one so un
ceremoniously removed.
Iry- There seems to be much specu
lation upon the subject of the appoint
ment of a Lieutenant General. Letter
writers from Washington, state that the
measure will pass the House—but that
its fate in the Senate is extremely doubt
ful.
To BE DEDICATED. - The German Re
formed Church, recently erected in Canoe
Valley, Blair county, will be dedicated
to the service of Almighty God on the
'24th inst. The public are invited to at
tend. .
re- The Locos of Blair county held
a County Convention on the 29th ult.,
and appointed Dr. R. W. Christy a del
egate to the Loco State Convention, un
instructed.
The Temperance men of Blair
Count} , met in Convention at Hollidays
burg, on the 18th inst., for the purpose
of petitioning the Legislature to extend
to that county, the act submitting it to
vote, whether or not spirituous liquors
shall be sold.
MIFFLIN COUNTY.—Hon. James Cris
well has been appointed representative
delegate from this county, to the March
Convention, with instructions to support
Gen. James Irvin for Governor.
D.- New Orleans papers of the 28th
ult. announce the arrival of the Ist Re
giment of Penna. volunteers.
Oz Union Star—if our articles are
worth copying, they are worth credit

[D=- Hon. John Young was inaugura
ted Governor of the State of New York,
on the Ist instant.
[l:7- The Legislature of Rhode Island
commenced its Winter Session last %% ed
nesday. The session it is said, will be
short,
fr,e- It is stated that Free Trade Sec
retary Walker will resign, on account
of his failure to have tea and coffee taxed.
Would'nt it be a blessing to the Country,
if he would
ri'• We won't say a word about the
weather. It's no use—we can't begin
to keep track of it—so we give in.
[D. STANDING CODIMITTEES.—In our
next we will publish the Standing Com
mittees of the House and Senate.
The Philadelphia Typographical
Society held its annual meeting on the
2cl inst. in that city. The proceedings
are full of wit and humor.

and heavy for the war, as a PARTY :fleas

Shunk's message i 3 its brevity.
o:7' The first No. of the Harrisburg
Daily Argus has been received. It pre
sents a neat appearance. Terms-132
for the session.
The New Orleans papers are
highly delighted with the fine appear
ance of the Volunteers from this State.
SIZUNIC'S NZ lISS.&GE.
The message is a plain, unpretending
business-like document—just such as
we could expect from "the Trappe school-
master."
The financial condition of the Com
monwealth seems to be the burthen of
his discourse. After a careful investi
gation of the whole subject, he arrives
at the conclusion that the present re
sources of the State will be sufficient,
without a resort to additional taxation,
to meet all its liabilities, and that, by
the gradual and steady increase of rev
enue derived from the public improve
ments, the people will be relieved, in
the course of a few years, from all tax
ation for the payment of the interest on
the public debt.
He speaks at length of the citizen
soldiery, who volunteered in defence of
our country, in very flattering terms-1
and also of the generosity and patriot
ism of the citizens, in ministering to
their wants, in the absence of any ar
rangements by the National or State
Government. He recommends that the
exhorbitant charges exacted from them
by the Commissary for travelling ex
penses, be refunded by the State. We
trust this will be immediately done.
His recommendation of a grant of land
to the volunteers, and several other sug
gestions contained in the message, we
have no doubt, will receive the public
approbation.
On the subject of the tariff, we can't
tell:where to place him. in one part of
the message he says he can entertain no
doubt of "the Constitutional power of the
federal government, to make such discri
minations in the rates of duties on im
ports, as may afford reasonable encour
agement to domestic manufactures and
productions, which may be injuriously
affected by foreign competition."
This is a very perplexing question for
His Excellency—consequently, like his
great prototype, James K. Polk, he is
unable to "define his position." In
another portion of the message, we find
that the ground taken last year, is re
asserted ; the importance of permanency
in laying rates of duties, elucidated, and
the blessings of the repeal of the British
Corn Laws spoken of. Not a word is
said of the "Tariff of .1842;" but "if
the Tariff of 1846," says the message,
" is found to affect injuriously any of Me
great interests of the country, we must
unite our efforts to induce Congress to
make all just and reasonable amend
ments." The Governor endorses the ' I
Sub-Treasury.
On the war question, he seconds the
views entertained by the National Go
vernment, and refers to Polk's message
for a statement of the origin and histo
ry of the war.
On the Ist December, the public debt
was $40,789,577—1e5s $196,819 22 than
on the Ist December, 1845. The re
ceipts of the year exceed the expendi
tures $194,441 11. The balance in the
Treasury on the Ist January, was $438,-
986 68, and it will be necessary to an
ticipate a small portion of the revenue
of the year to meet the semi-annual
payment of interest on the Ist of Febru
ary.
He proposes a plan to reduce the pub
lic debt, in twenty-three years, to $23,-
175,032; an amendment of the Consti
tution is recommended with it, devoting
the nett revenue from the public im
provements, the sinking fund of $200,-
000, created for cancelling the relief is
sues (with the annual increase of tolls,
estimated at $lOO,OOO per annum, add
ed to it), and the existing taxes upon
real and personal estate, to that purpose.
The Governor thinks the great Cen
tral Railroad will rather increase than
diminish the income of all our public
works, and refers to New York as an
example in proof of his position.
The Banks, he has reason to believe,
are in a sound condition. The policy
of making stockholders individually li
able, has had a good effect.
Not a single case of defalcation has
occurred among all the agents and offi
cers on the public works, during the
past year.
He opposes private legislation to a
certain extent.
Applications for divorces should un
dergo judicial investigation in prefer
ence to legislative interference. He says
it is a perplexing duty to sign such bills
—and strongly hints that he will sign
no more.
The message closes with an eulogium
upon the literary, charitable and benev
olent institutions of the State, and the
universal education of .her youth is re
ferred to with pleasure.
The Organization.
The following are the officers of the
Senate :
Speaker—Hon. CHAS. S. GIBBONS.
Clerk—George W. Hamersly, of Lan
caster.
assistant Clerk—John M. Sullivan, of
Butler.
Transcribing Clerks—John W. Chap
man, of Susquehanna; J. H. M'Cauley,
of iranklin.
Sergeant-at-firms—Benj. F. King, of
Allegheny.
./lisistant Sergeant-at-firms—Wm. P.
Brady, of Clinton.
Door-Keeper—J. W. Cowell.
Messenger—Ph ilipWeber, of Dauphin.
The following are the officers of the
House:
Speaker—Hon. JAMES COOPER.
Clerk—David Fleming, Esq. of Dau
phin.
assistant Clerk—A. L. Russell, of
Bedford.
Transcribing Clerks—Thos. W. Duf
field, of Philadelphia ; John alTerr, of
Washington ; John W. Hunter, of Erie.
Sergeant-at-.4rms—Jno. Morehead, of
Westmoreland county.
Door-Keeper—J. Saunders, of Dau
phin.
Messenger—E. W. Bigham.
Knowing the Speakers, the Clerks,
and their Assistants, personally, we
hazard nothing in saying that better
men have never filled the important sta
tions which these now occupy. The
appointment of Mr. Russell, of Bedford,
will no doubt be well received in this
section of the State, where he is exten
sively and favorably known. Both
Houses had excellent materials to se
lect from for all the offices ; and we are
sorry that all the applicants could not
be provided for.
The Legislature of 1847 will compare
well with any of its predecessors. The
hopes of the Commonwealth at present
centre there. We trust her hopes will
be realized.
ARMY APPOINTDIENTS.—The President
and Senate have nominated S. H. Mont
gomery, of Westmoreland county, As
sistant Quartermaster ; John W. Shu
gert, of Centre county, Assistant Com
missary ; Benj. S. Muhlenberg, of Lan
caster county, Surgeon ; and Geo. Dock,
of Dauphin county, Assistant Surgeon
—all to join the 2d Regiment of Volun
teers bound for Me :ico,
HANDSOME PRESENT.—In Philadelphia
they are raising a fund, by public sub
scription, for the purpose of purchasing
a Sword, Epaulettes, and a full suit of
Uniform—to be presented to the gallant
JAMES LAWRENCE PARKER, of the
U. S. Navy, for his daring exploit in fir
ing and burning the Mexican brig Cre
ole, while moored to the Castle of San
Juan de Ulloa, and for his noble conduct
in refusing to leave the unfortunate brig
Somers until she had sunk to the depths
of the ocean.
BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILROAD COM
PANY, AND THE PEOPLE OF PITTSBURG.-
The people of Pittsburg will now, no
doubt, part company with their Balti
more friends. The reply of Mr. Mc-
Lane, President of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company, to the Board of
Directors of the Pittsburg and Connels
ville Railroad, which appears in Friday's
Baltimore pepers, is, we think, conclu
sive as to this fact, especially when ta
ken in connection with the resolution of
the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad
Company. The Pittsburg folks must
begin to look towards Philadelphia, and
lend a hand towards constructing the
great Central Railroad.
Our Regular and Volunteer Force,
The Washington Union publishes the
report of the Adjutant General of the
Army, which shows the number of reg
ular and volunteer troops, which were
in the service of the United States, on
the sth December, to be, including offi
cers and all, 24,984—0 f which Major
General Taylor has 18,332 under his
command ; Gen. Wool, 2,660 ; and Gen.
Kearney, 392. Add to these the nine
additional regiments recently called into
service, it makes the whole amount to
more than 30,000.
[l:7- At an election for officers of the
2d Regiment of Pa. Volunteers, Mr. Ro
berts, of Fayette county, was the suc
cessful candidate for Colonel, by a ma
jority of 6 votes over Capt. Hambright,
of Lancaster. Capt. Z. W. Geary, of
Cambria, was elected Lieut. Colonel.
EE The State Legislature is compo
sed of a majority of Whigs, and we may,
therefore, look for a profitable session—
not loug, nor noisy,one quietly but stead
ily tending to the public good, by the
initiation and confirmation of measures
that will promote the interest of the
Commonwealth.
Shameful Conduct
A brother typo, v.vh.o is attached to the
Wyoming Artillerists, now on their way
to Mexico, in writing to the editor of the
Luzerne Democrat, from Pittsburg, says:
"William J. Leiper, Comm isary of the
State of Pennsylvania, charged a bill of
$650, or $6 50 to each man, against the
Wyoming Artillerists, for "provisions
furnished, transportation, &c.," on their
way from• Wilkesbarre to Pittsburg—
when the Company had paid all their
expenses on the route, except where the
hospitality of the citizens provided for
them."
This is not the only instance of ex
tortion—or we might say robbery—com
mitted by this fellow. The Pittsburg
papers mention cases even worse than
this. It is really outrageous.. And, at
the same time, too, the Government was
bound to deliver the regiments from this
State, to their place of rendezvous, free
of charge. In some instances, where
the poor volunteer had not enough to
satisfy his demand, he drained him to
the last cent. The man who would thus
rob the gallant soldier of his all, should
be branded as a traitor to his country.
We go for an investigation of the mat
ter, at once.
President's Message.
The following is the Message sent to
Congress by Polk, asking an increase of
the Army, and the appointment of a
Lieutenant General:
To the Senate and House of Representa
tives of the United States :
In order to prosecute the war against
Mexico with vigor and success, it is ne
cessary that authority should be prompt
ly given by Congress to increase the reg
ular army, and to remedy existing de
fects in its organization. With this
view, your favorable attention is invited
to the annual report of the Secretary of
War, which accompanied my message
of the Sth inst., in which he recommends
that ten additional regiments of regular
troops shall be raised to serve during the
war.
Of the additional regiments of volun
teers which have been called for from
several of the States, some have been
promptly raised ; but this has not been
the case in regard to all. The existing
law requiring that they should be orga
nized by the independent action of the
State governments, hay, in some instan
ces, occasioned considerable delay; and
it is yet uncertain when the troops re
quired can be ready for service in th e
field.
It is our settled policy to maintain in
time of peace as small a regular army
as the exigencies of the public service
will permit. In a state of war, notwith
standing the great advantage with which
our volunteer citizen soldiers can be
brought into the field, this small regular
army must be increased in its numbers
in order to render the whole force more
efficient.
Additional officers as well as men,
then, become indispensable. Under the
circumstances of our service a peculiar
propriety exists for increasing the offi
cers, especially in the higher grades.—
The number of such officers who, from
age and other causes are rendered inca
pable of active service in the field, has
seriously impaired the efficiency of the
army. •
Fiom the report of the Secretary or
War, it appears that about two-thirds
of the whole number of regimental field
officers are either permanently disabled
or are necessarily detached from their
commands on other .laties. The long
enjoyment of peace has prevented us
from experiencing much embarrassment
from this cause; but now in a state of,
Avar, conducted in a foreign country, it
has produced serious injury to the pub
lic service.
. An efficient organization of the army,
composed of regulars and volunteers,
whilst prosecuting the war in Mexico,
it is believed, would require the appoint
ment of a general officer to take the com
mand of all our military forces in the
field.
Upon the conclusion of the war, the
services of such an officer would no lon
ger be necessary, and should be dispens
ed with upon the reduction of the army,
to a peace establishment.
I recommend that provision be made
by law for the appointment of such a ge
neral officer to serve during the war.
It is respectfully recommended that
early action should be had by Congress
upon the suggestions submitted for their
consideration, as necessary to insure ac
tive and efficient service in prosecuting
the war, before the present favorable sea
son for military operations in the ene
my's country shall have passed away.

\X TE have been permitted to copy the following
1 , letter front a lady of the highest respecta
bility in Boston, to her son, a young merchant, do
ing business in Baltimore. The : nide the old
lady alludes to, we believe, to Dance's Deerhound
Syrup and Candy, which is doing wonders in the
way of curing attunes and Voughtr..—Moreau,
Dear Thome, you know my affliction,
The cold that 1. caught at a dance ;
So I beg you will send me a bottle
Of Hosrhound, extracted by Hance.
Mrs. Johnson, I dare say you knew her,
And the story will sound like romance,
Has been cured of her cough of long standing,
Ely buying some Syrup from Hance.
There'd the doctor, too, bless the old fellow,
For his h ealth went atravelling to France,
And came borne to be cured of consumption,
And lays it to lio3rhound and Hance.
Mrs. Martin, your father's first cousin,
Lay two or three days in a trance,
And the (list thing she said upon waking,
Was 'send for some Hoarhound to Hance.'
I yesterday sent for the Doctor.
Who said 'I can see at a glance,
There's but one thing can cure your disorder,
And that is some lioarhound from Hauer.'
So you are, dearest Tom, my condition,
If you would my enjoyments enhance,
Do not fail to forward to morrow,
A bottle of Syrup from Hance.
Do not trust it by William nor Peter,
For fear of some ugly mischance,
For what shall I do, dearest Thomas,
If I get not the Hoarhound from Hance I
One bottle for me, and another
Don't forget to direct to your Emits ;
They sell it nt Sands', I reckon,
But be sum 'tis the genuine Hance.
Mrs. Drown was heat double with coughing,
But now site's as straight as a lance ;
And the change has been wrought, she assures me,
By taking the Hoarhound from Hance•
As I went to the store but last Friday,
Mr. Huttermn eyed me askance,
And whispering said, 'Mrs. Davis,
You must scud for some lioarhound to Hance.'
Mrs. Pitts, who subscribes to the Mirror,
In that .1 urnal encountered by chance,
Very lucky, the fist advertisement,
Had been seen 1.1 our village from Hance.
I remain, my dear Thomas, as ever,
Your mother, i love's fond durance,
And if you would keep me here, darling,
Pray a nd mo the Hoarhound from Hance.
Hance's Syrup and candy are for sale at 108
