does not follow that because the bowels are
not costive they are not required, for some
times IN diarrhea they are necessary. The
stomach must be kept healthy, and an appe-

act on the respiratory organs properly and
allay any irritation. Then all that is re-

The resolution pertaining to the organi-

Central Committee for the past year, and
that he be reappoiuted for the coming

the president of this convention shall ap-
point the chairman, and that the remain
der of the committee shall be appointed
in the usual way, consisting of the same
number as that of last year.

family of A. w. Bendict, late secretary
of the State Central Committee, for his

Burglars About.

The dwelling house of Amos La Bar,
in Smith6eld township, near Dutotsburg,
was burglariously entered on Monday
night last. The burglars entered through
the cellar and found their way to Mr.. La
Bars sleeping apartment, where they
helped themselves to two pair of pants
belonging to him, his vest, two pocket
books, and his watch valued at some fifty
dollars. The pocket-books contained no
valuables, "a counterfeit one dollar bill
being all in shape of money in them.
MIR. La Bar knew nothing of the matter
until the next morning, having slept
soundly during the rummage of the burg,
lars.
On the same evening burglars, sup
posed to be the same parties, affected an
entrance into Mr.. VIM. Snyder's house
in the same neighborhood. They had
reached the parlour, but were disturbed
by the awakening of Mr.. Snyder, before
they had secured any booty. On looking
around to see that every thing was safe
Mr.. S. discovered a valuable horse, be.
longing to him, loose in the stable and fully
harnessed = prepared, no doubt, by the
rascals to assist them in carrying off their
booty. The operators in these cases arc
supposed to be the same parties who were
seen prowling around Brown & Kellcr's,
Raubcnold's and G. S. Detrick a. Co.'s
jeweley stores in this borough, at about
two O'Clock on Monday morning, and the
same who were seen at Bossardsville, later
in the day and who still later endeavored
to hire conveyance at Huntsman's live
ry stable. These latter mentioned par
ties had a suspicious look about them.

Fires.


A dwelling house on Bark Street, in
this Borough, belonging to G.. Hull, Esq,
and occupied by George Ellet and -
-, caught fire on the 4th of July
from a fire cracker which had been
thrown on the roof For time the totaI
destruction of the building was threaten
cd, but, owing to the active exertions OF
several of our citizens, who formed them
selves into a Bucket Brigade" the fire
was extinguished after having but slight
ay damaged the roof. The Phoenix was
On the ground as promptly as could be
expected, but arrived too late to render
service. We regret that for want of the
exercise of little forethought, on the
part of both iremen and citizens, a seri-
Gus disturbance came near growing out Of
the action of the former As it was, a
few " dry knocks" as the Kilkenny boys
would say, were exchanged.
The alarm of fire on Monday last, was
accustomed by the catching of the roof of
Robert Illusions house from spark from
the stove pipe. Its opportune discovery
doubtless saved most extensive confa-
grafton, and heavy loss.

n0- In making out the list of gentle
men to compose the Republican State
Central Committee, we think the Chair
man Of the Convention was particularly
fortunate in the selection of the member
for this county, VIM. Davis, Esq. Mr..
Davis has always been consistent and
active worker in the good cause, and hav-
ing fought the sham democracy, without
a balk, from his youth up, has the ez-
perience necessary to constitute him
most efficient member Of the committee.
His past course is sufficient guarantee
that he will not be missing when work is
needed. Under his lead We think We
may safely promise such report in Oc-
tober, as will make Judge Blacks pop
pets hereabouts look several ways for
Sunday

A Murdered Man Found.

As Mrs. Bowman and her daughter
were picking berries, in the woods, in
Paradise township, on Monday last, they
came across the dead body of man, lying
in what is commonly known as the Devils
Hole, in that township. When discor-
cred the body was partially covered with
old stumps and timbers, which had syi-
IDENTIFY been thrown upon it after death.
Upon the alarm being given Esquire
Storm summoned Coroner's jury, and
an inquest was held on the body Of the
deceased. The deceased, proved to be a
stranger in the neighborhood: no one
knew him nor remembered to have seen
him. lie was well dressed, ia dark cloth
clothing, had dark brown hair, good teeth.
though some of the lower ones had been
knocked out, and had on pair of fine
boots, one of which had been neatly
patched on theinside Of the foot. When
found all his pockets were turned inside
out save one, and there were no papers
nor marks about him to indicate who he
was. In one of his vest pockets which
had apparently not been disturbed, was
found twenty franc gold piece and a
French penny or centime. His hat
could not be found From wounds about
the head, it was evident that the man had
been murdered, and the verdict of the
jury was, that he came to his death from
blows received at the hands of some per-
son or persons unknown. The body was
so much decomposed that it could not be
removed, and was, consequently, buried
near the spot where discovered Rob-
berry was, doubtless, the motive of the
murder

Our Candidate.

But one feeling pervades the Republi-
can party and Press of the State, over the
nomination of Henry W. Williams, of
Allegheny County, to the Supreme Judge
ship, and that is feeling of thankfulness
that one in every respect so worthy has
been presented for the position
As jurist, Judge Williams ranks as
high as any other member of the Bar or
occupant of the Bench in the Common
wealth; and he has this great advantage
over his competitor in the canvass, Judge
Sharswood, in that while Sharswood'
opinions have been manipulated into
shape by the same democratic tendencies
which resulted in the attack upon Sump-
ter, Judge Williams has from first to last
been on the side of his government, and,
on every occasion which offered, threw the
weight of his intellect into the breach for
the preservasion of the Union, the Consti,
tuition and the Laws Numberless are the
decisions of Judge Sharswood, which,
prompted by ideas which acknowledged
only state Of profound peace, in face OF
a cruel war, would have given aid and
comfort to the enemy, and embarrassment
to the country, but for the interposition
of higher power than that which his
judicial commission bestowed upon him.
In political opinion the compeer of Wood
ward, of Black, of Frank Hughes, Of Will
liam B. Reed and the rest, he could
not bring his mind to the patriotic point,
which was so happily reached by the judges
of our courts generally, that the laws en-
acted for state of profound peace left
much to be inferred by the Judge when
wars alarms called. for prompt and eff
cicnt graphing with the questions grow
ing out of wars progress. In this respect
Judge Sharswood was behind nearly all
his brother Judges in the State, and it is
asking more than the people will concede
to ask for his election, as peace-ofering
to Woodward, Black and the rest of the
Corperheads, when such 4 choice is
presented as Judge Henry w. Williams,
who truly and patriotically found the laws
to be fully equal to every emergency
which traitors, in their rapacty, might
create
In the two candidates we have present
ed to US representive men of their respec.
tive parties. The one, the representative
of the principles which prostrated the
country into a rebellion. war, which cost
US hundreds of thousands of lives and
millions of money; the other, the rep
resentativs of principles which con-
quered the rebellion, and which is now
surely and rapidly working out for our
people permanent Union, and for our
country a perpetual peace under a wise
constitution and wholesome and just laws
In such an issue there should be no room
for doubt as to which side will succeed
and there is none. The voice of the Con-
vention at Williamsport on the 26th of
June last, will, as certainly as the world
moves, prove to be the voice of the peo-
pie on the Sth of October next.
