Our campaign subscribers will be entitled to

of the Presidential election. We should be
glad, however, if all such would consent to be

Take a Paper.
Now is the time to subscribe for a newspaper,
and the ,4 Huntingdon Journal" is the Paper
that should be in every family in Huntingdon
county. The election is now over, and we

opportunity for those desiring a good county

they would make the effort. Come, friends,
give us a lift.
To Postmasters.
We know of three Post Offices where our
subscribers have not received the Journal since
the October election. We feel sure that Mr.
Wallace, the POstmasrer here, treats us fairly.
And we know, too, that the Huntingdon Globe
has been received regularly at the offices in
question. Now we can inform the scoundrels
who act as Postmasters at those places, that
whether Gen. Taylor is elected or not, we are
bound, in justice to ourself and the public, to
make an efibrt to expose and bring them to jus
tice for their high-handed conduct. We aranot
disposed to have our business ruined merely be
cause a set of perjured public officers desire to
keep the truth from the People.
Gov. Johnston in Huntingdon.
His Excellency Gov. Johnston, arrived in
Huntingdon on Wednesday afternoon last. A
large concourse of people, both from town and
country went out to meet and welcome him to
old Huntingdon. All appeared anxious to see
him and take him by the hand. At three
o'clock the People assembled in the Diamond
to hear an address from the man who had been
elected Governor of Pennsylvania in oppositien
to the Locofoco party. The meeting was the
largest assembled in Huntingdon this season.—
The Guvcrnor spoke for more than an hour, in
strain of eloquence and argument that could
not be resisted. All were delighted who heard
him; and those who had voted for him, rejoiced
that they had aided in electing such a man to
the Gubernatorial chair of Pennsylvania.
DEATII or GEN. KEARNEY.-The heroic Brig
adier General Kearney died at St. Louis, Mo.,
on Tuesday last. He had been ill for a long
time, and hopes had been entertained until very
recently, that. he would recover, but a day or
two previous to his demise, his disease took an
unfavorable turn, which baffled the skill of his
physician.
a?" The amount of wine already made this
year, in the neighborhood of Itermana, Ohio,
is about 6,000 gallons. It is worth on an aver
age $1,25 per gallon. A considernnle amount,
however, remains to arrive, as the Catawba
grape has not yet attained perfect maturity.
HURRICANE IN CUIIA.-A terrible htorm corn
rnenced in Cuba, on the 311 Inst., anti continued
four days. The wind blew with great violence,
the rain fell in a deluge, and thick clouds obscu
red the light of the sun, suspending all business
in the towns, and putting a stop to agricultural
labor in the country.
DEATH OF A VETERAN STATesmsN..--Ifarrison
Gray Ottis, Esq., of Boston, who has been suf
fering for some time past from a.most painful
disease, died on Saturday morning. His age
was 83. Mr. Otis seas a man of the olden
time. He lived and died houored and respected
by all who knew him.
DE MIS ay YELLOW FEVER.-The New Or
leans Commercial Times of the 11th contains a
list of all that have died of Yellow Fever, at
New Orleans, during the last summer. The
record occupies five columns, and contains the
names of 703 persona, of whom a very small
proportion of American birth.
A PRECIOVSBrsTi.c.-An Eng paper says
the wife of a Cornish bankrupt was supposed
to have co/Keel.' about her person money, or

GLORIOUS
VICTORY!!
HUNTINGDON COUNTY, 0. K.
"The Enemy Lea fled, and the field
to ouis 35'
The result of the election in .‘ Old Hunting
don" yesterday, is such as should cheer the
heart of every lover of his country. The Tay
lor men have gloriously triumphed over their
opponents, under the lead of Cass. At the Hun
tingdon
box, the most desperate exertions were
made by the Locofocos. They confidently ex
pected, from the material they had on hand, to
largely increase their majority. The means
they used to do so, we may speak of again.—
The townships come in gloriously. We have
received the returns from all the districts save
Springfield, Hopewell and Tell, which show a
gain for Taylor over Johnston of over 200.-
1 Should we have a like increase in the three dis
tricts to hear from, Taylor's majority will not
vary much from SOO. Glory enough for one
Taylor.

From the St. Louis Republican, Oct. 6
The California Gold.—We were yesterday
visited by a gentleman who has been for many
years a conductor of gold mines in Mexico.
Ile examined our specimen, and theri informed
us that he had travelled over a large part of the
Sacremento region in search of gold mines, de
scribed the evidences he found, and concluded
by assuring us, that after spending five thousand
dollars in experiments, and attempts at discov
eries, he came out minus the investment. This
is one side, our readers may compare it with the
other.
RONGE, THE REFORMER.-The Vienna corres
pondent of the London Dailey News says:—
"
Range is preaching his new doctrines here
with unabated zeal, and with no slight success,
his auditors in the Odeon being eight or nine
thousand strong. He denounces the Trinity,
Confession, the Pope, the Calender of Sainte,
Convents and Monasteries, celibacy of the Cle
gy, and praying in foreign tongues."
ABOLITION or SLAVERY IN KENTUCKY.-A
gentleman of most respectable character and
standing, who has recently made a tour of the
state of Kentucky, and who conversed with a
large number of the leading citizens of that
state, says that it is generally conceded, that in
the Convention about to be held to frame a new
Constitution, provision will be made tor the ab
olition of Slavery in that state. Its immediate
and unconditional extinction, he thinks, will
probably not be secured; but that it will be
done within a few years, is certain.-2V. Y.
Post.
A C newts WILL. Case.—The Baltimore coun
ty court has been occupied about two weeks in
the trial of a will case which developed some
curious facts. It was the will of old David Hut
son, who died a short time since, and left a will
bequeathing about $30,000 to his boon compan
ions, and cutting oft his biood relations, or most
of them with a dollar each. The suit was
brought to set aside the will, on the ground that
the testator was not, at the time the will was
drawn and signed, of sound disposing mind ;
that he was exposed to undue influences when it
was signed ; and that the influences and means
to which he was exposed were fraudulent.—lt
appeared in evidence that Hutson had been plied
with
- liquor for some weeks previous to his death
and also that his companions had kept a constant
watch and guard over him to avoid his coming in
contact with his relations. The case occupied
ten days, and was finally disposed of by the ju
ry unsettling the will, and directing the execu
tors to refund all the rents collected.
EXPEDIENT OF A BEGGAR.—The star
vation of a child is a strange and re
volting sort of capital to trade upon ;
yet a woman in New York was detect
ed in having famished her child so that
it exhibited a sufficient degree of vora
city to excite the commiaseration of
street passengers. What a wretch nntl
what a commentary on street begging.
THE PRICE or A Kiss.—A young man in Fall
River was fined three dollars and costs for
kissing a young lady in the street. The charge
is only a dollar here, by the last decission; but
perhaps the Fall River damsel was the prettiest
which makes all the difference.—Providence
Journal.
THE Pittsburg Mining Company have recent
ly blasted down and cut up a mass of copper,
nearly pure and malleable, which weighed no
less than eighty tons, and the value of this mass
when deliver/. in market, will exceed $23,000.

Below will be found the sentence of Smith
O'Brien, the Irish Patriot, after having been con=
victed of Treasdn against the Government. No
American—no diristian can read file sentence
without a feeling of horror. Before passing
the sentence, the Clerk of the crown asked Mr.
O'Brien what he had to shy why the sentence
of the law should not be passed Orion him.
Mr. O'Brien said :—My lords it is not my in
tention to enter into any vindication of my con
duct, however much I might have desired to
avail myself of this opportunity of so doing.—
I am perfectly satisfied with the consciousness
that I have performed my duty to my country—
that I have done olny that which in my opinion
it was the duty of every Irishman to have done,
and I am now prepared to abide the consequen
ces of having performed my duty to my native
laud. Proceed with your sentence.—(Cheers
in the gallery.)
THE SENTENCE
The Lord Chief Justice then proceeded, amid
the most profound and painful silence, to pro
nounce the extreme sentence of the law upon
the prisoner. He said—William Smith O'Brien,
after a long, painful and laborious trial, a jury
of your countrymen have found you guilty of
high treason. Their verdict was accompanied
by a recommendation to the mercy of the crown.
That recommendation, as is our duty, we shall
send forward to the Lord Lieutenant, to whom,
as you must know, exclusively belongs the
power to comply with its prayer. It now re
manes with us to perform the last solemn act
of duty which devolves upon us—to pronounce
that sentence, by which the law marks the
enormity of your guilt, and aims at the preyen
tion of similar crimes, by the example and in
fliction of a terrible punishment. Oh ! that
you would reflect upon that crime, and dwell
upon it with sincere repentance and remorse.—
Oh I that you would regret it as it is regretted
by every rational being—that you would feel
and know that it is really and substantialy as
repugnant to the interests of humanity and the
precepts and spirit of the divine religion you
profess, as it is to the positive law, the violation
of which is now attended by the forfeiture of
your life. The few words you have addressed
to the court, however, forbid me proceeding any
further with this subject. It now only remains
for the court to pronounce the sentence of the
law. Here his lordship assumed the black cap,
and, amid a silence at once solemn and painful,
proceeded as follows That sentence is, that
you, William Smith O'Brien, be taken from
hence to the place from whence you came, and
be thence drawn on a hurdle to the place of ex
ecution, and there be hanged by the neck until
you be dead; that afterward your head shall be
severed from your body, and your body be divi
ded into four quarters, to be disposed of as her
Majesty shall please, and may God have mercy
on your soul ! (The most profound sensation
followed the conclusion of this sentence, and
continued to manifest itself for several minutes
afterwards.)
Capital Execution.
Charles Langfeldt, convicted of the murder
of Mrs. Rademacher, of Philadelphia—a most 1 1
horrible crime, of which the details were pub
lished in the Spring when it happened—was ex
ecuted at the Moyamensing Prison on Friday
last. The Daily Republican says:
Langfeldt, from the time of his conviction,
to the last moments of his existence, endeavor
ed to establish his innocence of the crime, by
asserting and reasserting that the witnesses on
the trial swore falsely. He was attended yes
terday by several Catholic Clergyman, but in
consequence of his refusal to submit to them
alone, they retired, and he was attended by sev
eral Protestant Clergy. He prayed with them
after considerable solicitation and advice, and
said that he had no confession to make to man.
That God knew his heart. He was led from the
sell to the scaffold at 20 minutesbefore 2 o'clock
and after he hail ascended, he addressed the as
semblage in German, which was interpreted by
the Rev. Mr. Fleischam, of the Protestant
Clergy. Langfeldt said that he was standing
on the point of going from this world to his
Creator, that the fifteen witnesses swore falsely
against him—that the Judges of the Court had
no spirit in them in condemning him under such
circumstances, and that from the evidence of a
man lying on the bed of Mrs. Rademacher, a
conclusion of guilt could not be drawn. He for
gave all,—the Judges, the Jury, and the wit
nesses, and concluded with the following sen
tentious remark: , 6 God will Judge."
The cap was then drawn over his face—the
rope was placed around his neck by Sheriff Le
lar, and all the props except the main one being
removed, he stood on the brink of eternity. The
next moment and lie appeared at the bar of a
righteous God. He was cut down in half an
hoer and an examination conducted by Dr. W.
T. Duffle proved that the vertebrae had been sep.
erated, and of course death was instantaneous.
There were about five hundred people present,
and there must have been more than a thousand
out side of the walls.
THE STATE or Onto is now in her 61st year,
or rather it is now 61 years since the first white
citizen moved into what is now that State—yet
she polls a vote approximating to three hundred
thourand. The fact abundantly shows the rap
id progress of the country.
The Markets.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3, 1818.
FLOUR AND MEAL—The week opened
with a moderate export enquiry for Flour, and
holders, in order to meet the views of buyers,
submitted to a slight decline. Sales of the
week embrace some 4000 or MOO brls at $5,23
for fair, and $5,3'7A a 5,44 for standard and good
brands. The bulk of the sales were at $5,37
which is the nominal asking rate to-day, closing,
however, with a very dull market. For home
use there has been a moderate business doing at
$5,371! a 5,50 for Penna. and Western, and
$5,821 a 8 for good and extra brands. Rye
Flour—There is little or no demand, and no re
cent sales have been made to fix a price, we
quote nominally at $4,121. Corn Meal—With
a moderate enquiry for export, is dull, and prices
are rather lower; sales of some 2000 brls have
been made, chiefly at $3, including several lots
lined and delivered at that rate.
GRAlN—Receipts of Wheat have been light,
and both the price and demand towards the
close of the week have fallen off. About 25,000
bushel=, including nome choice lots for ship
ment were disposed of at 112 a 115 ets for
Southern and Penna. reds, (the bulk of the sales
were at 113 cts.) and 118 a 120 eta for white.
Rye has declined, and sales of Penna. were
made at 67 a 66 cts. Corn has been in fair de
mand,
but the market closed heavy. Sales of
the week comprise about 40,000 bushels South
ern and Penn 'a yellow, at 67 a 68 cts. chiefly
at the former price, including several lots de
livered at that rate, and white at 62 a 61 eta.— •
New Corn is beginning to arrive, and sells at ,
56 cts per bushel. Oats have been very dull,
and several cargoes of Southern sold at 28 a 29
eta ; Penna. are worth 33 cts.
SEEDS—But little doing ; we quote Clover
dull, with small sales at $3 50 a 3 73 ; in Tim
othy
we notice sales of 300 bushels at Si t a 21,
mostly at $2 a 21. Flaxseed is taken in lots
at I'ls a 130 c.
MORE MISSIONARIES.-Five missionaries left
Boston on Saturday fol India, under the care of
the American Baptist Union, namely, Rev.
Messrs. H. L. Van Meter and Judson Benjamin,
with their wives, and Mrs. E. W. Brown. In
connexion With devotional services on board,
the Rev. Dr. Sharp made some animating sug
gestions on the very great changes' of public
sbutiment in regard to mission enterprises.
Youxo ADVtNTURER.-Capt. Baxter, of the
brig Venkre, picked up a boat containing a boy
about 12 years old off Conneaut, some ten
miles from shore, on Saturday last. The little
fellow had gone down to the shore to see a steam
boat pass, and entering a boat to get a better
view, the wind being off the land, he was driv
en out to sea-ward. The little fellow was
brought to this port, and sent home on steamer
Sunday morning.—Blialo Express.
