FOREIGN NEWS,
We to-day orowd our columns with the
late foreign news, received per steamer
Pacific. It is interesting. We have . been
compelled to crowd out a numlor of edit°.
ri6l articles intended for this issue.
American Meeting•
'the article we had prepared about the
American Moss Meeting, in this borough,
on Wednesday last, by somo mishap, was
knocked into pi. The meeting was large
ly attended, and very enthusiastic. Suc
cess to the good cause. •
Scaly.
Young poltroons, scarcely from the nip
ple, dictating to men "learned in the ways
of tho world." It is essentially disgust
ing, and we hope the yeomen, of the coun
ty any .• keep their eyes peeled," for the
lads. Boys, Heaven's net going, to be
reached from crab aliple trees.
Icet it Sol
The ticket formed on Inst week, by the !
Fusionist loaders, reminds us very much
of a Kangaroo—its strorrg parts are be-'
hind. The fore-logs of the ticket arc en
tirely too short for n good run on their own
hook ; and as the hind legs were hitch ed
on merely to help the animal along, we
shall not be surprised to see them become
a little mutinous in performing that up-hill
task. We give the ticket as nominated,
in another column.
The Tempest Chair
Our townsman, E. C. SUIIIIIICTS, EST,
haseotnpleted this novel improvement, and
we understand an agent will start soon for
the purpose of disposing of the rights. It
is a novel contrivance, and no doubt will
meet a ready sale.
It is fashioned after the manner ofa roo
lring chair, and at every motion of the
chair, a fine breeze is wafted over the bo
dy by some internal construction. It con
be seen at Long & Decker's store.
Another Pie Nio.
On Thursday next, a mammoth picnic
party will come off near Marklesburg, on
the Huntingdon and Broad Top Railroad.
It is presumed that some seven or eight
hundred persons will be present, mostly
citizens of our borough. Extensive pro.
parations are being wade, and wo are in•
formed that there will be no lack of any
which might render the participants
comfortable and happy. Providence per
mitting, and the weather continuing good,
we expect to "bear a hand."
NOTICE.

the report that the accounts of some
of the patrons of the Hunt. Journal, have
been left in the hands of a J. P. for collec

action, neither have wo served notices on

Appointment.
MISS ELLA DRAYTON, of this borough,
has been unanimously appointed by the
school Directors of Hollidaysburg, teacher
of the Cirantmar School of that place.—
Miss Drayton is one of the most accom
plished teachers Huntingdon County has
ever produoed and the people of Hollidays
burg have shown their good judgement in
selecting her for that responsible station.
For the Presidency.
The name of Judge Gardiner, now of
the Court of Appeals of New York State,
is mentioned in high Democratic quarters
as a candidate for the Presidency. Judge
is a democrat of (ho Radical school and
by his course with reference to tho Anti-
Rent troubles, was chosen Lieutenent.Gov
ernor of the State 'over Hamilton Fish, In
4+46 whoa Silas Wright was defeated us a
andidate for Governor by John Youug.
ORAB-ology,
The action of a few individuals, in this
borough and county, reminds us of the
scientific movements of a crab. But
a few years ago, says a cotemporary, these
men were members of the Whig party,
but being disappointed there in the gratifi
cation of their aspirations, they left it.—
There is a class of individuals in Hunting
don County, who would not scruple de
stroying the Whig Party, if their own sel
' fish ends could thereby be advanced. It
is very plate that such men have had a
great deal to do with the late "fusion" ac
tion. 'Phey have joined the ranks of Le
cofocoistn, and they have proposed to the
firm-hearted Whigs of the county to do
likewise. And this invitation has not been
altogether rejected ; a Whig or two has
consented, out of a mere desire for pastime
we preSume, to take a hand in fixing for
the "hewers of wood and drawers of wa•
ter" of the now so called Democratic par
ty, their political tactics. Degrading as
a "fusion" position is to the Whigs of old
Huntingdon County, we have no idea that
they twill tamely submit to such humilia•
lion. They are men, as well as others,
and have all the feelings of independent
manhood that will lead them to reject with
scorn the dominion that is thus proposed
for their control. They arc not so blind
that they cannot see that the mantruvering
going on among the Locofoco leaders is de
signed for selfish purposes, and for the el
evotion of these men through the election
of Simon Cameron to the United States
Senatorship. If they are content to be
come mere inanimate blocks on whose
shoulders these men may seek to mount to
power, they will submit to the degrading
position in which Locoloco management
has placed them ; but if they have the spi
, rit and independence which two take them
to have, they will refuse thus to be sold to
their enemies like unresisting sheep, at so
much per head. Now is the time for Bo•
!necrotic Whigs to show to the world their
attachment to the great celiac of Whig
principles. That they will stand upon
the old Republican principles of Clay and
Webster, and oppose the centralizing pow
er of despotism, orhich the Pierce admin
istration is endeavoring to build up.
Kanzas Matters, Again.
The proceedings of the Kanzas Legis
lature, part of which we publish in anoth
er column, will be read with interest by
those vlio are lovers of law and order.—
The laws are unworthy of a South Caro. •
lina Legislature, and of course, wo do riot
presume that the free citizens of Kanzas
will pay the slightest regard to them.
loist they should not. Gen. Pierce may
now see in what precarious position his
anti-republican actions have placed him.
The sympathizer with, and supporter of
lawless ruffians. The St. Louis Democrat
commenting on these diabolical laws of the
unprincipled scoundrels who compose the
present Koons Legislature, justly observes
—it is ru ither more nur less than making
a dtflerence of opinion upon a constitution
al question a penitentiary offence. It is
not less true that if the Kanzas Legisla
tors had laid their heads together to study
out a scheme whereby to defeat their own
plans, and to play into the hands of the ab
olitionists, they could not have devised one
more efficacious than this. It indicates
the extreme excitement at present prevail
ing on the subject of slavery in Kanzas,
and it also shows the absurdity of permit
ting any political subject whatever, to whirl
away those affected by it into a vortex of
madness and folly. A correspondent of
the above named paper, thinks that in its
utter disregard which it shows of the nat
ural rights of free speech and thought, it
is only paralleled by the Massachusetts
.'Personal Liberty Bill." The comparis
on is not a fair one. Equally unconstitu,
tional and unjust, the Kanzas law is more
worthy of reprobation from its sanguinary
hue. Extremes beget extremes, and front
the conflict of warring forces, results peace.
After a few more displays as these, we
shall perhaps see the sober and rational
majority of the country shamed into dis
cussing political subjects in an impartial,
temperate, and reasonable manner ; look
ing more confidently titan ever to the con
stitution, federal union, and States' rights
—one and inseparable, as the guiding prin
ciple of our policy.
The American Organ.
We have frequently been asked the
question, whither we ere the Organ of the
American Party of the County. Our sub
scriptions list embraces the principle men
of that party, and n o are looked upon by
the majority of the leading members of
the organization as the only to/ Ameri
can Paper in the County. As no action
has as yet been taken by the different
councils, in regard to the appointing or
sclecting,an organ, we would suggest to
our American bretheren throughout the
county, the propriety of increasing the
subscription list to the Huntingdm Jour
nal, as the only recognized organ of Amer
icanism in the county.
Pue Yer,Low Favna.—The increase of
the yellow fever at Norfolk anti Richmond
together with the commendable exertions
inching, in almost every direction now, to
send forward relief to the sullbrers, are the
newest events of the day. We have no-
thing new by telegraph from New Or
leans.
The Late South Carolina Movement.
A meeting of the K. N. State Council,
was held at Charleston on the 14th inst.,
at which time and place the order emphat
ically declared its independence of all oth
er organizations in the United States, and
repudiated connexion with those Councils'
that disapproved of the Philadelphia plat
forms. The meeting was significant, not
only from the fact that it distinctly repudi
ated the Catholic test, and refused to be
bound by the National Council, but from
the unanimity with which its proceedings
were conducted. As there is also in Lou
isiana, a strong body of sympathisers with
this South Carolina section, the movement
will probably be watched with interest cit.,.
en among the many and varied political
entanglements which tire daily developing
themselves. On the following day a meet
ing of the State flights and anti-KnoW Ne
thing citizens of Charleston was held, at
which the American party was denounced
all its phases and principles, as oppos
ed to the doctrines of State and the inter
! ests of the South."
The Kangaroo Ticket,
On Wednesday last, the committees ap
pointed by the Whig and Locofoco Con
ventions, for the purpose of fixing up a
ticket to be supported by the filibusters of
the County, met in secret conclave, and we
believe, harmoniously agreed Upon the fol
lowing ticket. The Whigs in Italics, and
the Locos in Roman.
For Assembly—lh•. John .VcCulloch,
Treasurer—Gralliim Miller.
" County Commissioner—Stun - nal Elm
" Poor Director—Win. Menu.
" Auditor—D. Tisscy.
It will be seen that the head and t nil of
the herring are topped off with W higs, as
if that would enable the Locofoco kite to
sail gaily into office. It reminds us very
sensibly of the fable of the monkey, get
ting the cat to pull the chestnuts out of the
fire, and of the monkey then enjoying a
monopoly of the nuts. We shall see what
the Whigs of the county think of these so
called "fusionists." For the present, we
are mum.
DEATH or JUDGE CONETABLE.—Hon.
Albert Con Alb le, Judge of the First Ju
dicial District of Maryland, died at Cam
den, N. J.., on Wednesday evening, sur
rounded by his family. fle had been for
a long time past suffering from a disease
of the heart, aggravated recently by a long
and arduous trial. In the death of this dis
tinguished jurist, the Bar of Baltimore
has lost one of its brightest ornaments,
and the State ono of the ablest judges
that graced the Bench.

snatched from all prospects and onjoymonts of

Such persons beforu contemplating Marringo,
should reflect that a sound mind and body are
the most necessary requisites to promote cOnuu-
