REPUBLICANS OF PENNSYLVANIA.
The time has arrived when, in our judgment,
the vital interests of the Republican Party, and
its solemn duty to the cause of Freedom, La
bor and and humanity alike imperatively de ,
wand that Republicans should assemble, from
every part of the State, for the purpose of firm.
ly organizing the party on the solid basis of its
own principles.
We therefore invite our fellow Republicans
to meet in formal CONVEN fION, at HAR
RISBURG, on the 22d of FEBRUARY. 1858,
at three o'clock, P. M., to adopt such measures
as may be deemed best ealealateil to impress
upon the legislation of the nation, the princi
ples enunciated by the Philadelphia Republi
can Convention of June, 1856.

IL—Ft. In our issue of last week we sta
ted that our office was again entered by
burglars who stole our Pack Book con
taining a list of our subscribers, Which we
had been striving with great labor to com
plete since they stole the one in October,
But after more minute examination we
find strong indication of a loss of typO.
mr" We find the following in Dr.
Johnston's Dictionary :
Garret—The uppermost • room in a
house
Cockloft—The room above the garret.
OW After ourtet book and type wero
stolen, the theft was kept a profound se
cret by us, nor was it spoken of by us, until
it was announced in tho Journal.
Eno) this tact, it appeared strange to
us and rather unaccountable that any so
licitude or anxiety should have been man
ifested to see the Journal by the clique of
the American Office before it was issued,
after our office had been robbed of the
type and book ? We ask for information,
did they suppose that for want of typo
that it could not be issued? Had they
any inkling ot our loss? Or what was
the meaning of their sending for the Jour
nal two different times that morning be
fore it was ready for distribution to sub
scribers ? Did they wish to hear what
we had to say on the subject of our loss?
Or had any of them any knowledge of our
Pack Book or type? If they have we
would be glad to be informed.
OW A telegraphic despatch from Washing.
ton to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin says:
"The President is much chagrined at Gov.
Packer's Inaugural Address, or rather at that
part relating to Kansas, where the Governor
dissents from his views in regard to the Le
eompton Constitution."
Gov. P. has clearly committed tho "unpar
donable sin" in declairing in favor of the peo
ple to mould their own institutions. If he were
Governor of Kariess, instead of Governor of
Pennsylvania, ICOUithel ho be made to walk

For the Journal.
My duties for a few weeks past. hove
been so arduous, that I could find no time
to pen anything for your columns. But
since I had the pleasure of attending on
Friday Jan.. 29th, an examination of the
school under the care of George P. El
dredge Esq., - of Morrie township, I now
regard it, truly, as a mental lewd that I
can report to the..friends of education the
result of so successful an examinotion,
I will not attempt to give a detail of the
various recitations of the school. for nei•
ther time nor space would permit. I
will however, say that while witnessing
the exercise of several boys in Book Kee
ping we were highly delighted with th. ,
proficiency they hod made in said branch,
as we learned front the teacher, that they
had been engaged in this exercise only a
short time.
We were also much gratified with the
chanting of a number of girls and boys
on Outline Map: which had b.en drawn
and colored by the teacher of the school.
And as 1 designed to be brief, suffice
it to say that the entire exercises of the
day were highly entertaining. The
scholars quitted themselves admirably—
thus reaecting great credit not only upon
themselves, but also upon their devoted
teacher
Before the close of the examination, a
nurnfer of citizens and directors being
present, the faowing resolutions were of
fered and adopted.
Resolved, That as directors and
citizens, ure highly pleased with the
rapid advancement of our school, under
the charge of Mr. Eldredge. And that
he deserves great praise tor his zeal and
untiring labor, in advancing the interests
of our children.
Res°lvo', That we regard Mr. El
dredge as one among our First Teach
era and that we will lend him our midi.
vided assistance in support of his school,
And since "the laborer is worthy his
hire" it is but just that I should odd, Mr.
Eldredge is truly a teacher for the times,
and I dismiss the subject by commending
to public confidence TO successful an in
structor.
A VISITOR
' Some further developments were
made yesterday before the Committe on
hhiligfaer"allida.
and °can't remember" of witnesses could
be treated with a few doses of commit
ment for contempt, the examination might
prove something more than a farce.
From Kansas.
ST. Louis, Monday, Feb. 8, 1858.
The Westport correspondent of the Re
publican say that difficulties have again
broken out at Fort Scott, Kansas, and that
a requisition has been made on the Gov
ernor for troops.
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED
STATES.
(Concluded.)
They provided still more, effectually, en
they supposed, for the perpetration of their
minority government, by adopting the Oxford
frond as the basis of their apportionment,
giving a great preponderance of representa
tion to the counties on the Missouri border,
and affording at the same thee every possible
facility fir the introduction of :parlous votes.
The President of the Convention was clo•
thed with unlimited power in conducting the
elections and receiving the returns, while the
officers are not required to take the usual
oath to secure fair and honest dealing. The
elections were hurried ou in midwinter—the
21st of December and tho/lth of Janaary—
when emigrants could come only front the
immediate borders, under the qualtfient,on
which invited to the ballet box every white
male inhabitant “in the Territory no I but derv."
The same men who did this had previously
denounced Governor Walker for the sugges.
tion io his inaugural address, and in his To.
peke speech, that the constitution should lie
submitted to all the bona fide itiliabitnets,
although.he invariably stated, when asked for
planation ; that some reasonable length of
Teaidence ought to be required as evidence of
the bona Ale character of inhabitancy.
It was apparent that all the machinery had
been artfully prepared for n repetition of gross
frauds, similar to those whieh had been at
tempted in October; and it was in view of all
these fitcts, after the adjournment of Oa; con
vention, that the people of the territory, by an
almost unatihnousdeinand, called • upon me,
as the acting Governor, to convene an extra
session of the Legislature, in order to ena
ble them peaceably to protect themselves a.
gainst the wrongs evidently contemplated by
the adoption of this constitution. There was
no law to punish frauda in election returns.
The people were intensely excited; and it
was the opinion of the coolest men in the ter•
ritory that, without a call of the Legislature,
the elections tinder the constitution could not
have taken place withont collision and blood
shed. The meeting of the Legislature di
verted the attention of the people from the
schemes of violence upon which they were
brooding, substituted the excitement of de bate and investigation for that of fierce and
warlike hatred, and enabled their representa
tives to devise means for counteracting the
wrongs which they justly apprehended.
i Recent events have shown that their op
probensionli were well founded. Enorrcoue

HAIR RESTORATIVE,
PRODUCING lIAIR ON BALD HEADS,
AND RIISTORING
Grey Hair to its Natural Color.
This astonishing and unequalled preparation
has never failed to produce a growth on Bald
Heads, when used• according to the direction,
and turn hair back to its original color, after
having heroine gray, and reinstate it in all its
original health. lustre, softness and beauty. Re
moves at one,• all scurf, dandruff and unpleasant
scrofula, eruptions and feverish heat
from the scalp. It also prevents the hair Irma
becoming unhealthy and lulling Mt and hence
acts as a perfect HAIR INvifion.tron AND To -

A gentleman of Boston writes to his friend
in Now liedliwd thus:
To

first cOolmenced to two Prolessor Wood's Hair
Restorative, my hair was almost white, nod had
been No for the lost ten years and it was very
thiu on the top of my head, and yore (nose, and
pulled out very freely; but I found that before
I hail used all the second bottle, (which wan
eight weeks) my hair was entirely changed to
its ocighwl color, light brown, mid is now free
(root din chuff said quite moist. I hove hail my
hair cat five or six times since the change, and
lave neesr seen anything like white hair start
ing from the roots; and it is now as thick as
it ever was, and does not come out all. It has
proved in at, case all that I could wish to oak.

WOOD'S HAIR DYE.—This admirable ar
ticle is rapidly improving the hair. No article •
of a similar kind, now before the public, inlays
a better reputation as a restorative and invigo
rating hair tonic. Its peculiar chemical plan.
ties have a beneflcial °fleet upon the growth and •
character of the hair, giving a silky and glossy•
texture to that which woe formerly of a coarse
and dry nature. It hos, also, we understand, a
tandem to preserve the youthful color and up- •
permute° of the hair, and destroying or counter
acting the effects of old age. With such recnin•
mendations in its favor. we hardly perceiveliow
nov lady or gentleman should Ito withoutse
unLle nn adjunct to their toilet.

and seldom more then on, bottle is required to
cure any kind of LIVER Complaint. from the
worst Jaandice nr Dyspepsia. to a common head
ache, all of which are the result of a M. taco
LIVEN.
The Liver is ono of the principal regulators
of the human body, and when it performs tts
functions well, the plwers of the system are ful
ly developed. The stomach is almost entirely
dependent on the healthy action of the Liver
for the proper performance of its func
When the stomach is nt fault, the bowels are at
fault, and the whole system suffers in consa
wilco of ono ormm—the Liver—haviwZ conscal
to do its duty. For the diseases of that organ
one 01 the proprietors has made it his study, in
a practice et more than twenty years, to find
some remedy wherewith to counteract the many
derangements to which it is liable.
To prove that this remedy is nt lnst found,
any person troubled with Liver Complaint in
any of it, forms, 'has but to try a bottle, and
conviction is certain.
A compound has been formed by dissolving ,
gums. and extracting that part which is soluble'
for the active virtues of the medicine. Those
gums remove all morbid or had matter from the
Vslem, supplying in their place a heal by flow
of bile, invigorating the stomach, causing food to
digest well, purifying the blood, giving tone and
health to the whole machinery, removing the
causes of the disease, .4 effecting a radical
core withont any of the disagreeable after ef
fects, felt by using Calomel or Mineral Poison,
that are usually resorted to.
To all who will follow these directions a cure

be cured by the use of two ten-spoonsful taken
as soon as the attack is felt.
The Invigorator never fails to cure sour sto
mach or the had (Abets experienced after eat

13iHOUR ftitfill)s yield readily tobne bottle, and
Chronic Dierihma, difficult, as it is to cure, is
