Perforated Postage SiampS.-A Great
CoaUenieace-Hon, James campbell, the
Postmaster General, has recently introduced
an improvement in the postage stamps,
which according to the Philadelphia Lcdg-
er, adds greatly to their public convenience.
He has had them prepared on sheets with
perforations around the borders of each
stamp, so that they can be separated, one
from the other, without using a knife or
pair of scissors. Besides the savingo OF time
in this improvement, there is greater Sc
curity that the stamp will adhere to the
letter, for the points or rough edge left by
the perforations will stick better to the let.
ter, there being none of the risk of the
edge turning up as when it is continuous.
This plan Of perlorating letter stamps is
practiced in Europe, and Mr., Campbell
had the contractor to procure machine
from that country for use here. The con,
tract is made with foppau, Carpenter &
Co., of Philadelphia, and, in addition to q
supply for that city the stamps have already
been sent 70 New Y York, Boston, Baltimore
Cincinnati, st. Louis, New Orleans, Chicago
and Albany. The amount Of letter wri
ting in the United States may be inferred
from the number of postage stamps used
The number sold by the government las
year reached nearly one hundred and fifty
millions of stamps. (

The inaugural Suit.

The Lancaster Independent Wig gives
the following description of MI. Buchanan s
Inaugural suit The entire suit is to be
black the coat and pantaloons of the finest
cloth, and the vest of silk, fowered. The
entire affair will reflect credit upon the su.
pcrior Workmanship Of our townsman, who
finished it. In the inside of the coat, across
the shoulders, and around the arms, thirty
one stars are tastefully embroidered in silk,
with the Keystone in the centre, represent
ing the glorious trio, of brilliant stars, which
Mr.. buchanan will endeavor to bind still
moro firmly together, with the keystone of
the whole, strengthening, and holding firmly
the splendid arch"

HolIoWdy's Ointment and PiNs.-Posses-
sed of these remedies every man is his own
family physician. If his wife aud Chi
dren are troubled with cruptions, sores,
tumors, white swellings, sore throat, as
thma or any affection Of the skin, glands
or muscles, aperserving use of the Oitment
is all that is necessa y to produce a radical
cure. If on the other hand, the internal
organs are ass lied by disc ,se whether it
be located in the liver, the stomach or the

Judge Blacks Successor.

The transfer of Hon. jeremiah S. Black
by President Buchanan, from the Supreme
Bench of Pennsy ylvania to seat in his cab
met, has created vacancy in the Supreme
Court, which will be temporarily filled by
appointment of Governor Pollock until the
Election in next October. Mean time,
the Democratic State Convention, will re-
assemble and nominate candidate for the
succession. 1t is uncertain who will be
nominee, but as matter of information,
we gave the names Of several distinguished
democrats, who have already been named
by the newspapers-viz:
William Strong, of Berks county.
Charles A. Black, of Greene.
William A. Stokes, of Westmoreland.
James Thompson, of Erie.
Hopewell Hepburn, of Pittsburg.
From such an array of distinguished
gentlemen, with others who will yet doubtless
be proposed, the Convention can have little
difficulty in making judicious selection.
Either of whose nomination would greatly
strengthen our State Ticket. They arc
good men and sound democrats.

BLEEDING KANsAs.-Let the people
bear in mind (says the New Hampshire
Patriot) that Kansas ceased to "bleed" as
soon as the presidential election was over
which proves that she was made to "bleed'
for effect upon that election.
Let them remember, also, that every
statement and prediction of the black re.
publicans in regard to the effect of Mr.
Buchannn's election upon Kansas and sla-
vory-every statement and prediction in
regard to the slavery question-have 7'rovea
utterly false and deceptive, ). while every
position assumed by the democracy ha.
proved correct.

/ one of the greatest and best men of tho
country, He is Pennsylvania by birth
and wus born in 1910. He devoted him
self to professional life, and never held q
purely political Office; In 1912 he was APP
pointed one Of the district judges Of Penn.
sylvania became on the bench the chieI
justice, and in 1854 was elected to the su-
premo bench, His literary attachments
are of the very highest order. He is pro-
found in his knowledge Of law aud his
opinions as judge have won for him the
highest respect of his professional brethren.
Ills selection has elected the Aattoring Gu
logiums even from the opposition press -
Thus the Philadelphia Gazette says-"He
is lawyer of very high attainments, and
of most accomplished mind in other re.
spects; and we are sure he will do emf
nent credit to his new position The
Pennsylvania (democratic) remarks
The purity of his character. the inbred and
incorruptible honesty of his nature, the
soundness of his principles, the superior
brilliancy and clearness Of his intellect, all
stamp him with the genious attributes of
true greatness. The nation could not have
marshalled into her service a nobler spirit"
This glance at the antecedents of the
personnel of the new administration shows
that it has marked homogeneous charac.
ter. Not that the members went as a unit
on the exciting questions that have lately
divided the country; but that they all held
their views and action US subject to the
paramount duty of the preservation of the
Union. Hence, while this cabinet is rep.
rosontahvc of the strictest fidelity to con-
stitutional rights, it is cmphatically rep.
resentative Of that national sentiment, that
comprehensive regard to all the interests
ofour common country, which should ever
mark the counsels and the conduct oe pa
trot statesman.
And at its head, as the dispenser of the
politicalpower, as emphatically the PRES
IDENT, is the illustrious statesman, who
has just solomnly declored, that he is con-
vinced he owes his great Office "to the
inherent love for the constitution and the
Union which still animates the hearts of
the American people," and who can have
no motive to influence his conduct but the
desire ably and faithfully to serve his coun-
try, and to live in the grateful memory Of
his countrymen. Let patriotic citizens, of
whatever party, sharply review the past and
calmly survey the present in the legacy of
"the richest political blessings which Heav.
en- has bestowed upon any nation;" and
then say whether such an administratio n,
based on such platform as the inaugural,
