What does this Meame

We find the following resolution in the pub
llshed proceedings of the Tippecanoe Club Of
Harrisburg, the members of which, the loco TO-
co press asserted, had come ont for Porter. AS
the proceedings are signed by some Of the same
persons whose names are attached to the loco
toco address purporting to emanate from that
Club, the loco ioco editors who have published
that address had better explain the meaning of
the resolution Have the members, since they
deserted our party, been confded with the Sc
crets OF the Porter party, and is one of those
secrets shadowed forth in the resolution!
"Resolved, That the brlbc of nneiy-nine
thousand dollars given to David r. Porter by
the Bank of the United States for the suspen-
sion resolution, passed in April 1910, and the
taking of the same under his especial care,
strongly contrast with The rallying cry of repea!
now raised by him and his party TO the proposed
National Bank passed by Congress-and fully
show their duplicity and insincerity."

A Female SWindler.

The Rochester Daily Advertiser gives a
minute account of the operations of female
imposter in that city, which are worth repeat
ing, and which we will embody in small
space. She came TO that place four or five
weeks since; professed to be an English lady,
though recently from Toronto, in Canada;
claimed the maiden name Of Ann Eliza Hunt;
said she had large property just increased by
the death of her uncle and aunt; was richly,
though somewhat slovenly dressed, of good per-
sonal appearances, and aged about thirty-ive.
AS lady Of fortune she soon became a toast,
and young man of the place rendered his heart
and hand. He was accepted; marriage settle
ments were made; mine host where The lady
boarded was directed TO furnish sumptuous
wedding entertainment, which was done, and
:he marriage was cOnSummated III due form.
The next day, in the best carriage which could
be obtained, the happy pair rode about The city,
the bride ordering numerous articles of furni-
ture, besides wearing apparel for herself and
lord, 10 no small amount. In the afternoon OF
the day she ;old her husband she wished to
take short drive on some business, and hoped
he would not take it amiss if she preferred 90
ing alone, which he willingly assented to- She
went, and night came without her returning: so
did the next day and night; and days and nights
thereafter. People began 10 suspect that all
was not right, but the husband had full faith
Finally, however, he presented draft she had
given upon the bank for more than thousand
dollars, and was met with a rebuff of "no
funds" and then he gave in. The landlord, be-
sides the cost Of the wedding supper, is minus
$50 of borrowed money. The young man is
married but without wife, and has already
had bills TO the amount of $500 Of her crea-
ting presented against him. This is clean
shave on big figure; and those who have been
imposed upon, while they will be ptled by
some, will be laughed at by all.-Poughkeepsie

The Meeting.

The friends of the patent Porter democracy
held meeting in the Courthouse, on Tuesday
evening. 7th inst. 1t was almost the slimest
meeting we ever saw our political opponents
hold in this County. A part of an address was
delivered by Mr.. Shaw Heretofore at such
meetings MessrS Brodhead and Reeder, who
are justly esteemed leaders in their own party,
could be got to make speeches, but at this meet
ing they were amongst the missing. These
gentlemen are too honest 10 advocate the pro-
priety Of making James NJ. Porter the Cover
nor of this section of the State for the next
three years, and permit him to plunder the peo-
pie of the Commonwealth by getting 1000 dol
lar fees, and 10000 dollars for building Dams,
besides what he can get from the Bank of the
United States for getting his brother TO sign
suspension resolutions, and send in special mes
sageS.

Outrageous Proceedings at Kaskas-
kia, Illinois.

The western papers bring an account of an
outrage recently committed at Kaskaskia, llh-
nois, the county seat of Randolph. On the
light of the 18th ult., the house of Mr.. White
head, lawyer from St. Louis; was attacked by
a disguised party, who assaulted the place with
stones which broke the windows, and some
struck Mrs W. and came near killing an infant
on the bed They burst in and were on the
point of seizng Mr.. W. when some ncighbors
came TO his assistance, and the party fled.
Some of the lawless band were recognized and
six bills of Indictment found for burglary, with
intent to kill. The party, however, were not
inundated, but went TO court, and when it adj
journed, as Mr.. w. was coming out with Judge
Breese, they seized upon him and under the
eyes of the Judge himself, they beat, knocked
down; kicked and trampled upon their victim,
until some citizens inlerfered and rescued him.
The cause of this violence and outrage proceed
ed from the fact that Mr.. w. was attending
court in his character of attorney, in suit
brought for a colored man who claims 10 have
legal right TO be free; and some persons of
Kaskaskia apprehended that if the suit progress
ed, some of their coored people held as slaves
since the expiration of the time, and against le
gal right, might also sue for and recover their
freedom These outrages in the west are be-
coming alarmingly frequent

II is well known that the Suspension resolu-
ton passed by the Legislature of 1910, through
the influence of Gov. Porter, and signed by him,
cost the Bank of the u. S. NINETY-NINE
THOUSAND D0LLARS--the fact stands re-
corded upon the books Of the institution. 1t is
also stated upon good authority that a large sum
of money was also paid by other Banks in Phil
adelphla for the same object. The facts can
not be denied, and yet neither the Governor
nor any of his friends have attempted 10 explain
by whom that money was Observation-Disclosures
by James NJ. Porter, or 0. F Johnson, D. NJ.
Brodhead or others-or how it was divided be-
tween those to whom 1t was paid-the part, if
any, that was allowed Johnson, Brodhead, Cam
eron, Wharton, Porter, &c, or whether it was
exclusively monopolized by the Governor and
one or two of his friends.
The advocates OF Gov Porter do not den,
that the money was paid, and for the purEose
specified above. If it was not "a brbe 10 Gov

The Mary Rogers Case.

The New York Courier of Friday last, says:
The spot at which this unfortunate girl lost her
life, is believed TO have been discovered. A
little boy living at Weehawken brought some
days since TO his mother, hat tassel which he
found in the woods or bushes in the neighbor-
hood, and some other articles of female appar-
ell. Information of this having reached the
mayor, he visited The mother, was shown by
The boy to the place, and there found other pie
ces of her clothes and indications around of a
violent struggle having taken place. In conse-
quence Of this discovery, The following notice
has been issued by the mayor TO which we in
vite attention We would further suggest that
the Governor should, in addition to the pecun-
iary reward offered for the discovery Of the
perpetrators of this alrocious act, promise a
pardon to any inforner, who though present,
was not actually a party to 1t.
The Mayor desires TO see all persons Of
either sex who were on Sunday afternoon, 25th
of July last along The embankment at Weehaw-
ken, New Jersey, or at the public house at the
end of he embankmeni. They will please call
on him at The Mayors office in the City Hall,

the bug-being unable to brealhe-was forced
