WM. BREWSTER,
Editor and Proprietor.
Wednesday Morning, January 19, 1859
fig — Ever since the dirty sheet now ow
ned by the Nasher was first called ..ame
rican," it has been a most vile and abu
dive concern, except for a few months im
mediately before it came under its present
ownership. With this exception of a short
period of comparative decency, it has at all
times heaped upon. me the coarsest and
foulest abuse and falsehood. Even when
owned by those pious gentleman (R) who
gave it birth, its columns were open to ev.
ery low blackguard whose fiendish pro
pensities led him to hate every one not as
depraved as himself. 1 have been a spe
cial target for the vulgar assoc!ates of the
present owner. They have heaped upon
we all the vulgar and profane slang phra
ses which form the staple of their conver
sation in their drunken, midnight orgies ;
and they hove repeated over and over
again, the most enormous and wicked
LIES concerning my private character.
The readers of the Journal will bear me
witness that I have seldom noticed their
scurrility. To this general forbearance
and silence I was prompted by my own
feelings of respect no less than by the ad
vice of friends. Only occasionally have I
noticed some of the disgraceful acts of
their scandalous lives, but in no instance
have I answered their gross falsehoods
with anything but truth. Nor would I
now take any notioe of the foul article in
the last American, only to tell the mull
cious scoundrel who wrote it, that he and
his whole base clan of calumniators can
nut scare me into silence. lam as able to
protect my person from violence as most
men; Ind if the cowardly ruffian who has
threatened violence, is at all mindful of his
own hide he will take back that threat in
stead of attempting to ex cute it, and bear,
as best he can, the indirect utterance of
facts, well known and plainly spoken at
least by persons of his own class.

MEETING OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The follmiting was prepared for our
last issue but owing to the great length
of the Governor's message, it was crowd-
ed out.
Democrat, of Blair
county, was chosen Speaker, receiving 17
votes to 16 cast for Glen W. Scofield, Op -
position Wm. H. Miller, Dem., was ele
cted Chief Clerk, and Frank M. Hutch•
inson, Dein., Assistant, over the American
Republican cnnidates ; in each case the
vote was 17 to 16; In the House, Wm.
C. A. Lawrence, Am. Rep., of Dauphin
county, tvas chosen Speaker, receivirg 67
votes to 34 cast for P. C Gritman, Dem.
The House afterwards elected Samuel J.
Rea, of Philadelphia, Chief Clerk, and
Judson Holcomb, Assistant. They are, of
course, both members of the People's par
ty.
In the House, on Wednesday, Mr. Thorn
presented the petition of William Mat
thews, of Philadelphia, contesting the
sent of David B. McClain. Tito customa
ry committee was chosen on Tues day. ,

sed finally ;. yeas 94, nays 6. The nays
were all Democrats ! Mr. Williams, of
Bucks county, read a bill to repeal the act
of the last session increasing the pay of

The Pennsylvania Legislature was not

said, Chase will be chairman of the Com

Judiciary, Church chairman of the Com
mittee on Corporations, and Walborn chair
man on the Committe on Railroads.
STATE TREASURER.—Hon. ELI
Bursa e Republican, of Union County,
was yesterday elected State Treasurer by
the joint vote of the two houses of the Leg•
islature. Mr, SLIFER occupied the saute
position two years ago, and made a faith.
fnl and creditable officer. His election
is alike honoroble to himself and to the
majority which selected him.
THURSDAY, JAN. 13.—1 n the Senate
Mr. Schell, of Somerset, from the Commit
tee on Banks, reported a bill to prohibit
the circulation of bank notes of a lees de.
nomination than twenty dollars. One or
two other bills of little eonsequunce were
also introduced --]n the House, a anot
her of unimportant bills were reported.
and a select committee appointed to try
the contested election case of T. H. Porter
of Cambria county.

schemes and sale of tickets after the Ist of
June, 1860. We think our authorities
shonld exert themselves for the suppression
of the illegal Gift Enterprises and knidred

unlawful, and have a most pernicious ef
fect upon the morals of the people, partic
ularly of the rising generation. We say,
destroy them, root and branch.

Horrible Suffering lap n the Plains
—Ten °Majors and Mussels Men
Frozen to Death at one Time.—Nine
Mules Frozen in One Night.
Mr, John M. Guthrie returned Iron
salt Lake City a few days since ; am' gave
the Weekly Platte ✓lrgue the following
account of the horrible aufferings which
he and his companions endured from the
cold weather on the plains and in the
mountains :
Mr. Guthrie left Salt Lake City on the
27th of November, with the mail on pack
ed animals, in company with G. A. Beard
ly, of New York. If had been snowing
for seven or eight days before Nr. Guthrie
left the valley. The snow was from one
to six feet deep in the Big Mountains,
and they had to tramp the snow to pass
with their animals. Second day out the
Snow was so deep that the compony got
lost and lay out all night, and the men in
charge of the mail had their feet and hands
frozen, and the boots had to be cut off
their feet the next morning,
The third day they made Bridger at son
set, and after traveling about twenty miles
got lost again, and were cimpelled again
to lay down in the snow till morning.
Fourth day they made Big Sandy Station
and left there abaut 2 o'clock in the eve
ning and traveled 20 miles, wind blowing
from the east, The storm increased so as
to prevent thorn from seeing five feet a
head, and compelled thdm again to lay
up. They camped in a hollow, and dti.
ring the night snow drifted on thorn to the
depth of three feet. Here the whole com
pany almost froze. Mr. G. states that
his feet and legs were so numb as to be al•
most unable to stand up. The mail men
having no bedding were compelled to
walk around ail night to keep from free
zing. Fifth nay—left early in the morn
ing—travelled eight miles—one of the
mail men's face and hands froze, and th•
other was ao far froze to be almost asleep.
