A Pointers for Outsiders.
The jury in the St. Clair murder

the case on Catlierman a fathur. who
it is said, attended the trial, hud the
gall to say on ono or two occusiols
that our model young man St. Clair
oujjht to be puui-hod for uiurdoriug
his sou. Isn't that Union county
r resumption for you? Punish one
of our populir youug boys a leader
in juveiulo reliirious circles, au
obedient so a who helped his mother
wash and delivered her washings to
her patrons, ami fairly tumbled oyer
himself in his efforts to assist her?
Puuish him becuuso ho had the
courage to stand up and protect the
dignity of Milton and shoot a man
down who presumed to come into
our quiet town and walk up the
streets with an independent, world
ly air f Well we guess not. That
isn't the way Northumberland coun
ty justice is built. Here is a little
data for outsiders to study when
they feel inclined to invade the
peaceful precincts of our county
and walk over her lawabiding peo
nle. 1886-1800 : killin's 67 : hantrine's

Hon. (Jrorg; Mrrntrp 4'liTillrnitril
Henry ('Uy to .norlnl t'ombiil.
t Onl ridayof Teachers' Instituto
in Middleburgh Dr. Baer made al
lusion to Hon. Gcorgo Kremer who
lived at one time near Middlpburirh
and who was challenged by Henry
Clay to light a duel. " 11 r u e s't
George." as ho wus cille 1, whs born
at Middlctown, Duupliin county,
Nov. 21, 1775 and died on his furin
near Middleburgh, Sept. 10, ls.'il. at
the age of 7H years, lie M-rved t wo
terms in Cotigp44 fioni IS2.-lto 1J7
represeiitiiig Union (including Snv
dor) and Northuiuberlaiiil counties.
Mr. Kremer, in his second term in
Congress, became involved iu a dis
pute which brought him into public
notice. These events took place
about or when Henry ('lav was
appointed Secretary of State bv
President John Quincy A lams, uud
are known as the "bargain and sale"
excitement. Mr. Kremer was linn
ly convinced that Mr. Clay threw his
influence against General Jackson
by which the electoral oto of Ken
tucky was given to Mr. Adams for a
consideration, and when th? first
pluco in the Cabinet was tendered to
and accepted by the Kentucky
Statesman honest George opened
his mouth and poured forth the hot
shot that set the entire country
agog on the all-important accusa
tion. John Randolph of Roanoke
dilated upon the accusation against
('lav to such an extent that the ne.v
Secretary of State was compelled to
challengo him to mortal combat. Af
ter Kremer had exposed it in the
papers, Clay replied as follows :
"I pronounco the author of the
charge a base and infamousc ilumni
tor, a dastard and a liar anil if he
dare unveil himself uud uvow his
name I will hold him responsible for
the laws that govern men of honor."
This challenge was accepted by
Kremer who published his name
with an acceptance to tight a duel.
Kremer searchod tho hardware
stores of Washington to secure the
best II ro arms in t he land and it was
noon noised abroad that honest
George was one of tho best marks
men about the National Capitil.
Tho news was euougli for the re
nowned Kentucky orator. Ho never
appeared against the plucky states
men of "I'eiinsylvania Dutch" fame.
Georuu Kremer occupied a on
spieioiiR position iu the carlv d iys
of Union (then including Snyder)
count v, uinl lived for inativ years at
Lewisburg. For a while" young
Kreamer clerked for his uncle, (L it
eral Shyster, who came from (i,u
inany where he had been iu Military
Service. Iu 17W our young hero
went to Selinsgrove. where ho was
iu t ho employ of his uncle, Simon
Snyder, afterwards G m i nor, who
t hen carried on a grist null, store,
farm and warehouse. In l-titij he re
moved to Lewisburg, then called
I lerrstown and started a store in
Isiis, which he continue I until 127.
He was elected t- th" Legislature iu
11.! uud iMl l uud iu lHIO he whs de
feated for congress, but was elected.
as before stated, 1822 and re elected
in 1821.
Upon his retirement from congress
hotitirchasod about :tOu acres of laud
in Franklin Township, Suvder (then
Union) county, near this place and
moved his family from Lewisburg to
tho farm April -', IX2i, where lie. lived
until the day of his death.
Mrs. Thomas Bower of Swiueford
is a daughter of the distinguished
George Kremer and now lives on
the Kremer homestead. Oconee
Kremer was married iu 1811 to Cath
erine Evans, only daughter of Col.
Frederick Evans and wife. Mr.
Evans lived with Mr. Kromar until
Evans died in 1811. He uud his wife
and Hon. George Kremer were bur
ied iu the old cemetery lot on tint
Krouier homestead. These bodies
wero due up iu 1801 bv Hurrv Snccht
and ro-buried in tho Middleburgh
cemetry where they are now resting.
We recall this bit of historv at this
time because there are many of the
younger generation who havo never
I .l 1 1 l-
ufiini m uuu, vioo. jvreiuer, a gonr.li)
man of national reputation in his
day and we propose to do our duty
toward preserving historical data of
our own county a duty that has
been too much neglected by tho
peoplo of Suyder county.

A NtraiiK Drram.
One night, recently, a Newport
woman awakened her husband by a
hearty laugh, in her sleep. Tho bus
baud did not interupt her merry
dream, but when sho awoke next
morning, ho wantod to kuow whut
ths fun was. She said she had
dreamed that one of Newport's min
isters (a young divine) hud grass
growing out of one Bide of his head
and a large tomato stalk was spread
ing its branches out of the other Bide,
therefore furnishing much food for
laughter to her. This eccentric
dream was the outcome of an oyster
supper before retiring.
