a NEW style Of cheap one story houses
has been patented in London. and now they
are being introduced into Berlin by TIE Prus-
sian government. These houses consist of a
light frame work, connected by cross-bars
and filled in between with three layers Of
straw which are sewed together The straw
before being put in is soaked in water glass
to make 1t fire proof, and the layers are we'll
pressed together, after which they are Gov
era with coat of aspha,tum on the outside.
and mortar or plaster on the inside. In the
middle layer the strsws lie horizontally. in
the two Others vertically, an arrangement
which gives the walls solidity. The roof is
supported by iron beams, covered by CORFU.
gated iron and asphaltum. and may be used
as garden or yard. Such a house is put
together in from two to three days, is thor
oughly Gre proof. and warm in winter and
cold in summer. A dwelling house with
two rooms. kitchen and its appendages,
costs in London about three hundred dollars:
with four rooms and the other necessary
compliments less than five hundred dollars.

The Democracy of Bedford county. at
their recent convention, did themselves the
honor of expressing their preferences for B.
F. MEYERS, Esq, senior editor of the Har
Iisburg Patriot and Bedford Gazstts, for the
Congressional nomination in that district
If the counties of Adams and Fulton acqni-
esce in Recommendation and we feel sure
they can DO no better. we have no fear but
that the district now disgraced and misrep
resented by that miserable scalawag, john
Cessna, will be redeemed from radical mis-
rule. and be made to look with honest pride
aud pleasure upon an honorable and high
minded representative in the lower house of
Congress in the person of B. F, MEYERS. Esq.
who is a true gentleman, an unfliuching
democrat and an Intelligent trustworthy
man. So mote it be.

The Last Outrage.

We have frequently called the attention
of our readers to the gross infamy of the pre-
sent Congress in allowing men" who were
never elected to positions in that body. or
any where else, TO take their seats. There
ought to Re some decent respect paid to the
voice of the schife people of the South But
it seems that this cannot be done. JOHN
CESSNA of the Bedford district, has made him
self conspicuous and infamous in the defence
of the most unparalleled outrages during the
present session of Congress. As full proof
of the truth of what we say. the following
proceedings in the House of Representatives
ON last Friday week will emirently serve the
purpose:
Mr. Cessna. I call up the contested
electio case OF A s. Wallace va W. D Simp
son, from the Fourth Congressional district of
the State Of South Carolina | propose In
take but little time. not more than five min
utes, and do not know of anybody else who
wants anv time.
The resolution was read. ne follows:
Resolved, That A. S Wallace was dulv
e'ected a member Of the Forty First Congress
from the Fourth district of South Carolina
and is entitled to the seat he claims in this
House
Mr Cessna. l desire to state that no un-
derstanding or arrangement has heen made in
this case with ANYBODY, and desire to make
no arrangement except spch as The House may
determine to make and therefore in order
70 test the sense OF the House now ask the
previous question on the resolution.
The previous question seconded and the
nnin ques ion ordered and under the opera
ton thereof the resolution was adopted
Mr.. Cessna moved 10 recon slider tho vote hv
which the resolution adopted. and also
moved that the motion to reconsider be laid
or the table.
The latter motion was agreed to.
Ofcourse Mr.. Cessna's programme finished
the whole case, and Mr.. Wallace was sworn
in as member of Congress from puth Car
olns. That any honest man, either in or
out of Congress. ever believed or thought for
moment that A. S. Wallace was elected
and Simpson was not. Is perfectly Incredible
But, as will be seen by the foregoing pro-
ceedings. the infamy was fully and complete
ly accomplished. We have no patience with
this Kind of a fraud 1t is shameful, and
no decen. man can or will defend it.
Mr.. Brooks. sound and able democrat
from one Of the New York city districts.
spoke like high minded gentleman against
this wholesale outrage, as will be seen by
his remarks appended below:

John ". Forney.

This gentleman, whose political character
is so well Snown in this State, was recently
nominated by a leading Republican paper
as the next Radical candidate for Governor
Mr.. Forney, for good and weighty reasons
we'll understood by himself and by all who
have any knowledge of his standing with his
party, has wisely taken time by the forelock
and, in letter addressed to the editor of
the Germantown Democrat has declined to
permit his name to be used before the Con-
vention. We have Eothing to say specially
on the subject, but will simply publish the
following article from the Pittsburgh Com
mereial Radical organ, which shows that
John W. Forney did wise thing when he
wrote his letter OF declination:
A Harrisburg letter writer to The Beaver
Radical expresses the conviction that the
name of John w Fornev will be urged for
Governor before the next Republican cons
vention Of the State. He omits to add that
it will be urged in vain. The writer pro-
ceeds to give history of Forrev's political
career inst as if the people Of the State are
not familiar and disgusted with it. At
tempts like this to bolster up political hacks
only lead decent people to ask if the time
will never come when the Republican lead
ers will cease to Insult the masses in this
way. Cameron for United States Senator.

RENoUNCING TIE RADICAL PARTY.-Geo.
w. Lowry. Esq. through the Ohio NORTH
tcest. makes the following renunciation of
the Republican party. and declares himself
manfully as 'henceforth Democrat"
Having been a charter member of the Re
publican party. consider it due to the pub
lie to present few prominent reasons for
leaving it. | have carefully and dispassipn-
ately read all sides of the political issues
now before the country, and am driven to
the following conclusions as to the purposes
of the party now in power.
l. To destroy the sovereignty Of the States,
and to centTalize the power Of the Governs
ment. This, of course. means Monarchy.
2. To force upon US political and social
equality with the negro race. Take the
present situation for an example. If it does
not mean this, then / do not understand ac-
tions which speak louder than words.
3. Sustaining a swarm of useless Govern
ment loafers called officers, who live of course
on the sweat and toll of the laboring pro-
ducer. For example, see the Tenth Ohio
District
d. Protection to monopolies under the
name Of Tariff, at the expense and without
the consent of the public. Of course all
know that the consumer of goods pays all
tariffs. Who are consumers
5. Unequal taxation. which is therefore
unjust. and tends to establish moneyed and
landed a7istocracy, such as exists in all mon
archial governments.
Relying on the wisdom, intelligence and
patriotism Of the Anglo-Saxon race to redeem
our country from its present disgraceful 20
litieal thraldom. prefer being identified
with them in this noble enterprise. and am
therefore henceforth q Democrat.

his way to Rome, and entered the arrny of

the time the Rebellion broke out in the Uni

enlisted, and rose to lie Lieutenant Colonel

The Philadelphia Ereniny Te7eoronh

The Philadelphia Erening Telegraph
intimates that the Democratic majority in
Pennsylvania next fall may be ifty thou
sand. on account of the appointment of
Wayne M'Veigh and the political intricues
of Senator Cameron. The majority will.
doubtless. be very large but we do not
think that it will altogether come up to
that figure. But the idea of attributing the
anticipated defeat of the radicals to the dis
satisfaction of the people at the appointment
OF Mr. M'Veigh, as minister to Turkey, is
very absurd. The causes of complaint lie
much deeper than that.
