SURGICAL OPERArIoS-An extraordinary sur
gical operation was performed by Drs. Field
and lnnes about ten days ago, Oh the person
of Miss Amelia Miller, daughter of David Mil
Ter, of South Whitehall township, Lehigh coun-
ty, The young lady is about Is years of age
and had an enormous tumor over her right
eye, or rather behind her eye ball, which had
been growing for ten years. 1t had so dis6g-
ured her face that although she was otherwise
very fair looking girl, it was sickenng to
look at her, and she says she led life of mis-
cry and often wished herself in another world.
The tumor had forced her eye down over her
cheek until it was almost on level with her
nose With the assistance of Dr. Innes, the
whole tumor was skiIlfuy removed byDr Field,
the patient being under the influence of choro-
form. Portions Of the bone above the eye
were found to be diseased, and had to be re-
moved also. The patient is doing very well
and says she feels like new being Eas!on

ty for the last six years, will be astonished to
learn that he is drunkard and q gambler
that no political opponent can obtain fair
hearing in Court that he is tyrannical and
over-bearing in his disposition. Yet these
things are charged upon him at Harrisburg,
and falsehood and perversion Of facts are en-
ployed to sustain the allegation.
The aim and object of the Conspirators, was,
and is, to make "party question" OF the
matter By SO doing, they hoped that blind
partizan zeal, would hurry it through the Leg
islature, without regard to its merits. its injns
tice, or its entire impotency to effect any use
ful party purpose. The abolition Of this Judicial
District, would not strengthen the Democrat
ic party. Let this outrage be consummated, and
Judge WnMor is stronger with the people of
this District than ever. This the men who
are pursuing him understand perfectly WE'LL
They have no expectation of accomplishing
anything political by effecting their plans; their
sole object is to crafty their personal malice.
But it is necessary, in order to succeed, to
make the members of the Legislature believe
that great political revolution is to be effect
ed in Bradford and Susquehanna by wiping
out the 18th Judicial District The idea is too
ridiculous. to be seriously entertained but it
is nevertheless asserted at Harrisburg with
great vehemence.
This conspiracy receives, as it deserves, the
reprobation of the candid and honest men of
all parties. Outside of small circle, where
jealousy and malice towards Judge WILMor
have festered for years, it has no support or
sanction. We hear of neighborhoods which
demonstrate unanimously, Democrats as well
as Republicans, against such an outrage upon
their own rights, and such gross injustice to
an officer who they respect for his ability and
integrity If the voice of the people controls
the action of the Legislature, the 18th Judi
cial District will be allowed to stand intact,
and the people allowed to elect who they please
to preside over its Courts.

WlSUISGrOS February


The action of the Republicans assembled in
State Convention yesterday at Harrisburg, Pa,
is deemed judicious | learn from gentle
man who was present that the leading Repub-
licaus Of the state consulted with some of the
principal anti Lecompton democrats before the
convention assembled, and it was agreed upon,
in convention, that they would not proceed to
take action against the Lecompton constitution
as Republicans. but adjourn sine de- with in-
strnctons to their State Central Committee to
call convention, at au early day, of all those
opposed to the Lecompton fraud. This will
be done, and the convention will, probably, be
held sometime in June This action of the Re-
publicans meets the wishes of the tLecomp-
ton democrats of Pennsylvania, and is viewed
blythe anti-Lecompton democrats of the House
of Representatives from Pennsylvania as q
wise movement in the right direction.

1t is but justice to Messrs. BARsrow,
PATRICK and II. c. BAIRD, to say, that in sign
ing this memorial they did not intend to call
in question the character of Judge WnMor, as
a man, nor his impartality as Judge.
The names of the signers of this petition
were obtained in the most private manner
The whole plot was enveloped in the deepest
secresy. While Judge WuMor was engaged
in holding the February term of his Court, a
portion OF the members of the bar, were pri-
vately concocting nefarious scheme to pub.

The Bowels and their FunctiOns.--Dr
MOrse'S Indian Root Pills.

perfect health is the greatest blessing that we
can enjoy, without which all other blessings
of little consequence, we deem it Of great import
ance to point out the way for you to enjoy it.
The bowels must be kept in state by which they
are enabled to carry off the useless matter; they
are the main channel which nature has appointed
to carry everything that is unnecessary. And it
is impossible 10 tell what large amount of sick
ness has been caused by constipation, or costive-
ness; in other words, by not keeping the bowels
regular: it is the main road to all diseases: it is
the of unnatural irritation to the mucous or
lining membranes of the bowels. Having lost
their natural strength they cannot object to what
is required Of them. Hence, the bowels become
inhamed, and unless you find speedy relief, a
thousand other complaints are ever ready to drag
you through miserable and wretched life. Such
medicines must be given will cleanse the stom-
ach and bowels and restore their natural strength.
To accomplish this there is no compound so valu-
able as these Pills: all other medicines sink to ut
ter insignlfcance when compared to them; 1t seems
as though the Author OF Nature had designed them
for this as we'll as other complaints. From two
to five Pills day will increase strength and appe
tite, and cleanse the stomach and intes:ines from
whatever is injurious.

The lamented author of the charming story that

behind her many lasting and beautiful souvenirs
of her literary triumphs. But, among them all,
there is not one, perhaps, more worthy of her
reputation than the affecting story Of 'The Lost

so often and truthfully said in praise of the dra-
matte powers displayed in the writings of the

gracefulness Of her style-of the purity or the
strength of her moral principles-or of the APP
pllcabillty of her lessons and examples to the
prudent regulation of the affairs of everyday
life Like her works, those high opinions of the
critics have become household words among
American readers. But there is still room for
the spread of the authoress reputation, and for
the extended influence of her writings, which
are so well calculated to elevate and enlighten
the minds of those who may not yet have had
the pleasure to peruse them. It is due also to
the worthy publisher, who keeps these works
before the public, that he should be remunerat-

hands are engaged, and on their way to the re-

on Friday last, about fifty miles down, and sold
in Alexandria on Saturday; these were strictly
the first of the season, and were taken by the
