In the United States Senate on the 23d, Mr..
Bell read the resolutions passed by the Ten
nessee Legislature endorsing the Lceompton
Constitution and intimatng that he ought to
resign, and gave his reasons for disregarding
that attempt to legisatc him out Of the Sen
ate.
The Secretary of War and the General-in-
Chief are diligently engaged in arranging the
spring campaign against the Mormons. 1t
has been decided not to wait the action Of
Congress upon the various propositions for
increasing the military force, but to withdraw
troops from the frontier posts and concentrate
them upon Utah. Orders in accordance with
this design have been already issued. The
call upon the President for information as to
whether the people of Utah are in rebellion
against the federal authorities has been re.
sponded to- The documents however contain
nothing Of Importance on the subject that is
not familiar to the public. 1t is also stated
that the Secretary has decided to convene
court at Washington for the purpose of trying
Col. Summer on charges preferred against him
by General Harney.
Horace Greeley, of the New York Tribune,
was examined before the Tariff Investigating
Committee on Saturday, and the examination
was concluded in seme forty minutes. Mr.
Greeley thanked the committee for calling him
before them, and testified, we understand, !,
that no person ever proposed to put any money
de 10 "a, II
gress on the tariff or on any other question:
and that within his knowledge nothing of the
kind was ever suggested. Until the late ex-
pose in Boston he never knew or heard that
any money was paid or promised by Law
renee, Stone & Co., or any one else, to mem
bers or others to Influence the action of the
last Congress on the tariff.

Counterfeit vvfstar's IsaIsam.

We would caution the purchasers of the
Baisam IF JElAd Cherry against an imitation
article which has made disappearance i'll many
places, and which might deceive the unwary
by its resemblance to the genuine bottle. OF
the mixture we need not speak. Unprinci-
Piled scoundrels can always be found ready
to counterfeit anything, 10y which they can
put money in their pockets, and they are sure
to choose the most popular and well known
n tcle on which to practice their vil!ainies.
1t is lamentable fact that there are also
dealers IN medicines who are willing to lend
themselves ia carry out this imposition, by
selling such traxh as genuine, because they
can buy it for less than half the cost of the
real articlc-Ayoid such a man as you would

greater scamp of the two.

Obituary N9tise Ct my little friepI Lrox.Ep Of
With this little boy | was intimately ac-
quainted. Although but twelve years and
few short months old, he was, have no doubt
at all. an experienced Christian. His mind
had early been directed to the Lord Jesus
Christ and he had found by sweet experience
that those that seek the Savior early shall
find Him. | saw in this dear little boy so
much piety, and such an anxiety to do what
was pleasing to his Heavenly Father, and also,
so much of promise, that | felt an unusual
interest in him, and conversed with him, in
the last interview | had on subject of great
importance-whether he would not desire, if
God spared him, to study for the ministry
He frankly told me he would. Taking him
by the mana, gave nm my parting advice,
and promised when few years more would
pass away that | would see him educated
But now, Leonard, with all his piety, with all
his promise for future usefulness, has passed
away-God has taken him to himself. He
out young, was a shock prepared for the
granary OF Heaven. No longer will Leonard
mingle with you on earth in the family circle
he has gone to join the society Of the re.
deemed in Heaven. 1t would have reioiced
my poor heart could have stood by his bed
side when his spirit took it's fight but this
know, though this privilege / had not, that l
shall meet him again. To his kind parents,
brothers, and sisters would say, weep not
dry your tears-Leonard is not dead, but
sleepeth. He will soon rise again-yes yes,
and you, his dear friends, will meet him in
the haven of eternal repose. He has only
crossed the swelling Jordan of death little
before you. His little bark, though tossed
upon the billsws of the dark river of death
is now safely anchored in the port called
Heaven. BY and by you too must cross this
river Then take Leonard's pilot, and all will
be well. God bless you all, is tae prayer of
your friend. c. NIX.

TO OUR PATRONS.

ANNUAL AND ONLY Dun THE GAZETTE
MAKES.
The most important question to us in
these hard times is, 'Shall we be able to
pay our bond, or even a part of it, this
spring.s.. The principal and interest am
cunt to $3.50, and being the last we must
confess we had lived in hopes that the
present spring would release us from this
incubus, but thus far the prospect is poor.
However our patrons some years ago once
took a whim to furnish us with the amount
needed in a little over month, and We
don't know but they may do so again
Certain it is, if every one will but get the
idea in his or her head that what he or she
owes scW make it up, and pay over accord
ingly, the things done We shall there
fore, like Patience on monument, wait
for the wagon, and if it comes, We'll pay
up-if it don't, we rather think we won't,
because We can't.

Pennsylvania Legislature.

A proposition has been introduced into
the Legislature to abolish the 18th judicial
district, when the present Commission of
Judge Wilmot expires, which will be in
December next.
On the 26th, in the House, the Bank
committee reported the bill to incorporate
the Miffiin County Bank with a negative
recommendation Some Of the majority OF
the committee we believe were willing to
report the bill with clause requiring State
stocks as security for the five dollar notes,
which proposition will probably be accept
ed by the parties interested, and another
attempt made to pass it. The bill has since
been re-committed.
A bill, of forty-seven pages, called an
act for the "Regulation of the Militia" re-
ported in the house, makes every citizen
between 1S and 45, with a few special ex-
ceptions, liable to militia duty. If he does
not arm and equip himself with musket
and bayonet, knapsack and pouch, and
twenty-four cartridges, he must pay one
dollar to the County Commissioners if he
live in the country, but if he live in the
city one dollar and fifty cents The fund
created from these fines is to 60 to the sup
port Of the uniformed militia. We hope
that the Legislature will give the quietus
to this humbug If men want to play sol
dier in our streets, strutting in costly uni
forms, let them do so at their own expense;
there is no reason why the mechanic and
laborer, who arc handling the implements
Of their trade in useful employment, should
be taxed that others may handle gun.
The militia system was always humbug,
and will always be So.
4 bill To increase the rate of interest to
per cent, and legalize as much more as
can be got, has been reported i'll the Leg
islature 1t comprises only two sections,
in the following words -
SECTION l. That from and after the 18th day
of July next, the legal rate Of interest in all
cases, where no express contract shall have
been made for greater or less rate shall be
per cent, instead of per cent.
SEC q That from and after the said day,
it shall be lawful for parties to contract for
the payment of interest at rate higher or
lower than per cent. yearly, as they may
think proper. and to take and receive interest
80 contracted for.

PUBLISHING THE LAWS.-The Harris
burg Herald understands that bill is soon
to be introduced into the Legislature, by a
gentleman of influence and ability, to pro-
vide for the publication of the Laws of
the State, in the papers of the Common
wealth The provisions of the bill, we
are not informed of, other than it purposes
that the laws relating to different counties
shall be published in the papers Of those
counties, and the general laws in papers Of
Philadelphia, Pittsburg and Harrisburg, SO
as to give them the widest circulation If
this understanding of the bill be correct,
we give it our earnest approval.
If TO such a bill provision was added
requiring notice to be given in two or more
county papers Of all intended applications
for private, special and other local laws, at
least three weeks before application is made,
another highly important feature would be
added to legislation, and great deal less
trickery imposed on the people, who sell
dom see more than the title of bill until
it has passed both houses and received the
signature Of the governor Roads, wheth-
er new or for change in location, ought al
80 to be published before application is
made to court.
