The undersigned committee, appointed bv
Lewistown Lodge, No. 81, |. o. of o. F., on
Saturday evening, June l9, TO draft resolu-
tons expressive of the sense of the lodge in
relation to the death of Bro. DANIEL FIcH-
THORN, have prepared the following:
WHEREAS, In the mysterious workings of
Providence. our esteemed aud worthy Brother,
Daniel Flchthorn, was suddenly and unex
pectedly called from time into eternity; there
fore,
ReSolred, That we lament with heartfelt
sorrow the death of our beloved Brother, and
that we deeply sympathize with the bereaved
widow and lonely orphans and while they
lament the absence of the departed husband
and iather, may they look to that God who
will protect the widow and befriend the or
phans, firm reliance on whom, with the
sympathy of kind friends, and the usual min
istrations of the Brotherhood, will have a
tendency to soften the harsh features of sor-
row, with Christian resignation to the will
of Divine Providence
Resoloed, That during his long connection
with us as a member of our order, he has
gained our lasting confidence by his upright
conduct and truthful conversation, and won
our esteem by his pleasant manners and gen.
erous disposition. We therefore cherish his
memory with fondness in our hearts, and
there may it remain, of which the evergreen
is the pledge, forever.

DEATH OF JOS. INGLIs.-The Pittsburg
Gazette of Thursday 9th says: Z" A man
died on board the steamer Potomac, while
on her way hither from Cincinnati. She
arrived here yesterday at noon. The name
of the man was Joseph Inglis He had
on his person a certificate of good char
acter, written and signed by j. W. Shaw,
Chief Burgess of Lewistown, Pa, bearing
date March 4, 1850. The letter says that
Gas Mr.. JOS. Inglis is about leaving his
native place for the far distant West, it
gives me great pleasure to recommend him
as man strictly honest and upright in all
his dealings, and of industry, veracity and
integrity"
Inglis appeared when he came ON board
the Potomac in Cincinnati, to be in very
pitiable condition, exceedingly hungry,
and yet very sick He took deck pas
sage, and wrote, in very neat and even
beautiful hand, note to Captain Harry,
III SOiiS AOON. IL - CuSlOHldI1
for deck passengers to supply their own
food.) We saw his note, and from the
appropriate language in which it was
couched, Inglis was a man Of more than
ordinary education. In fact, there were
evidences in certain papers found on him,
that he had been teacher and, probably,
Of the German tongue. He had no money.
He was supplied with as much food as he
needed, and Captain Harry thought that
he perhaps, hastened his end by the guam
tity he deVoured. On Sunday afternoon
he became very delirious He made an
attempt at one time to jump overheard
On Sunday night he died As soon as
possible the Captain made port Cat Parkers-
burg) and there, at his own expense, had
the man properly and decently buried"
TThe deceased was formerly resident
of Kishacoquillas Valley, having lived we
believe with some of the Kyle family and
perhaps others, and sustained fair char
acter when he left this place in 1850-Ed.

PENSIONS AND LAND WARRANTS
The following, clipped from recent Wash
ington items, may be of interest to some
of our readers:
The President has signed the bill ex-
tending the provisions of the first section
of the act of Sd February, 1858, so as to
continue for life to the widows the halfpay
allowed by said act, and, where there are
no widows, to the children under sixteen
years of age Widows receiving pensions
under special acts are also included in this
benefcent measure
He has also signed the bill declaring
the title to land warrants to vest in the
widow, heirs or legatees in all cases where
proof was filed, but the warrants not issued
during the lifetime of the claimant and
makes them personal chattels. The war
rants issued under the act of March, 1855,
are assignable.

Holloacay's Ointment and Pt1ls.-It is a
melancholy fact that many medicines pre-
scribed in ordinary practice create terrible
diseases. Quinine saps the bones mercury
contracts the joints, softens the liver, creates
yirulent ulcers, and Injuries the ossious system:
iron and colchicum not unfrequently produce
paralysis. Now in all the diseases, internal
and external, for which these destructive
drugs are given, Holloway's Ointment and
Pills will work a safe and rapid cure Nay,
more-in cases where mercury, quinine, iron,
colchicum or opium have injured the general
health, or produced specific maladies, the re-
storatiye properties of the Ointment and Pills
will repair the mischief

FAREWELL TO ADAM j.
No Gazette next week---GOod Chance #
him TO Blow.

Our doggery boy at Mitfiintown, who
has been yelping and snarling at us for
several weeks, while laboring under an i'm
preston that we had ceased to notice him,
got 10 growing last week like dunghill
fowl with nothing to contend with, or per-
haps to render the simile more appropriate,
like poor inebriate who unexpectedly
found whiskey jug, danced, whistled and
sung around it at interludes of a few min
utes, during which he drank and drank
again, until in his ecstacy he thought it
was his own-but suddenly found his
dreams dissipated by ''fire in the rear in
the shape of boot toe. The appearance
of the Gazette we learn laid him out for
forty-eight hours, when having slightly re-
covered by the aid of ''Juniata water" he
waxed wrothy, and forthwith hunted up
" ROchesters works and other favorite
authors, from which we infer that the
SQUIRT viii be changed this week into
q The Venus Ntscellany'
Well, keep your courage up, Adam-lie
1t out-swear it out-or do anything else
but drown yourself, either in the Juniata
or a-whiskey barrel-but by all means
lie it out, for that is your forte. Remem-
Der, it sounds beautifully for you, who pub
hshed yourself over your signature as a
LYING LIBELLER, to talk about truth /:
1t sounds beautifully for a POLITICAL SWIM
DLER to talk about honesty; it sounds beau
tifully for a POLITICAL HARLoT to talk
about principzej it sounds beautifully for
the son Of an Irish tavernkeeper who never
shouldered a musket in defence of his
adopted country to call the descendants of
an American born citizen, one who was
twice in the service of his country, descen-
dants ct revolutionary Hessians it sounds
beautifully for a PRoFANE MOUTH to talk
about decency and virtue; it sounds beauti.
fully for one who has several times profes.
sed to be CONVERTED MAN and then sank
deeper and deeper in degradation, tC
talk about the attributes Of Heayea
and above all does it sound beautifully fo,
one who was known within the past few
years as poor, inebriated wHIsKEY soT
making an exhibition of himself that wonlG
have shamed many of the most hardened
and depraved, to talk about characte,
and respectability! But 90 on, Adam, %
on-the day is not distant when your pres
ent readers, who as yet know you not, vii
learn what beautiful expounder Of de
mocracy they havc-perhaps by acts O.
your own perhaps by some little paragraph
headed " MORE Of Runs Doangs."

Drunken Persons.-1he streets on Monday
evening were full of drunken persons. whose
noisy demonstrations were q shame to the
community, and o disgrace to our citizens
Some of them-the greater portion--were
young men of hardly more than twenty one
years of age. Are these yodfng men aware of
the discreditable position they place them
selves in by this conduct, or do they, as many
seem to believe, think it is manly to get in
toxicated Harrisburg Herald
Gen. Packer is a gentleman of some ex-
perience in legislation-is a man of ability,
though perhaps too much of partlzan-
and generally regarded as useful citizen
He is now the Governor Of the people OF
great State, and when he read this para
graph in his organ did not the conviction
strike him that when he signed the free
liquor bill he aided these young men in
procuring that which will destroy both body
and soul. And what is true of Harrisburg,
is true of all places in the State; drunken
ness is increasing, bringing shame and dis
honor to many family that had hoped for
a better future under the salutary laws
passed few years ago, and which but
needed enforcement to render them effec-
tive Let the Iawmakers-the Governor,
and members of the Legislature who voted
for the free whiskey bill, among whom we
are sorry to say were our member and SEN
ator--look on such scenes as the above and
ask themselves, in the Silly hours of night,
whether they are altogether guiltless in
producing them?

KINDNESS TO OUR FELLOWS.

Messrs. Edit0rs-I offer YOU few thoughts
on the subject of Kindness What barren
world this would be were it not for that spirit
of kindness which is found to exist to a great
extent in the human breast There are, it is
true, some human hearts that show no symp-
toms of kindness. and for all they care, the
world might 20 down to perdition. But hap
PLY for our race, there are but few of such
1t is the law Of kindness that binds families,
communities, societies and churches together
thus afording an opportunity for the people
to become enlightened, religious, and great
and good. Without kindness, there can be
no beney0lence, no charity, no love, no har
mony, no union, no peace, no religion, and
no good towards God or man. Who, then,
will be unkind? Think back over the past,
and see if you can call up any instance where
you have acted unkindly to any one-little
child, young or aged person-and if you find
you have, pray God to forgive you, and solemn
ly VOW that you will do so no more | have
known persons who would have given almost
anything within their power if they could but
have recalled unkind words spoken and uu-
kind actions that wounded the feelings Of
others, who are now beyond the reach OF rep
aration. 1t must be an unfeeling heart in
deed that will not respond in kindness to the
enquiries of little children, or take some pains
to instruct the ignorant, and be polite and
attentive to strangers.
The life that is worth living for is made up,
after all, of little kindnesses and little atten-
tions to one another. And particularly are
they cherished and appreciated in times of
trouble, sickness. or distress. BE kind al
ways. Be kind to every one and every living
thing and verify | say unto you, you shall
not lose your reward. SOL.
