were bitterly opposed to 1t. A petition was
handed round for signatures, understood to be
inasigntod by a leading provision operator, ask
lug TINT the call may he instituted, and somo on
tho other side sought to head of the movement

HARRISBURG. Feb. 14th. X

HARRISBURG, Feb. 18th, 1874.
The only bill passed in the Legislature
this week, of any general interest was a
supplement TO the election law. The two
first sections are merely explanatory but
the third section and the one that is really
important, is as follows:
-" In all elections hereafter the certificate
Of naturalization, if genuine, shall be con-
elusive evidence of the facts mentioned
therein; and when the person offering to
vote claims the right on the payment of
tax, the receipt for such tax if signed by
the proper officer, shall be the evidence
thereof; if such person does not produce
such receipt then the payment of such tax
may be proved by the oath of such person
or other evidence stating when, where and
to whom such tax was paid"
This supplement was passed by a strictly
party vote which is evidence that the law
is to be used to further party ends, and
proof that it should not have been passed
at all. 1t is sign of our weakness as a
party when we rely upon such means for
aid, and we may see the time when we
would wish this bill had not been passed
The judiciary apportionment meets with
very decided opposition, and Senator Wal
lace has taken up the cause of Perry, and
in forcible speech protested against the
attaching OF that county to Cumberland.
The fears that some have, that in case of
such an arrangement, the attached county
has no vote when judge is to be elected,
causes much of the oppostion but many
Senators hold that such is not the case and
that the voters of both counties have equal
right to vote for judge
The discussion on the salary of Judges
has occupied considerable time this week.
and the proposed bill has been amended
somewhat but there is still chance for
further amendments.
A bill has been introduced in the Senate
exempting homestead from levy andlsale
to the amount of 5000, 90, and sundry arti-
cles of personal property besides, and vesting
the title to the property in the family of
the debtor.
Petitions for and against the repeal of
the local option law, continue to arrive,
though so far petitions for repeal are the
most numerous. A bill to pro vide for pay
ment of the bills for advertising the New
Constitution continues to furnish theme
for discussion and the question is yet un-
decided. Both houses have adjourned until
Thursday next. QUID NUNc.

In a Fix.

At six o'clock on Monday morning a man
named Thomas Brannan was found by one
of the keepers of the Hudson county peni-
tentiary, at Snake Hill, hanging by his
hands to the iron bars which form the graf
ing of the windows in the building, He
had no clothing on him but all undershirt,
a pair Of drawers, and a stocking on one
foot.
The keeper tried to take him down, but
found that the mans hands were frozen
fast to the bars, and he was unable to re-
move him without assistance. With the
aid of some of the other keepers Brannan
was removed from his terrible position and
carried inside. His legs, arms, hands and
feet were found to be frozen. He was
crazed with typhoid fever, and had travelled
four miles.

DIssolyed Their Pastoral ReIatIons.

A short time ago DR.. Strong, pastor of
the Presbyterian church OH Third and Pine
streets, requested his congregation to unite
with him in an application to the presby-
terry to be dissolved from his ministerial re-
lations with the congregation on account
OF impaired health. 4 commissioner was
appointed to represent the congregation at
the meeting of the presbytery, which was
held in the church last week. After hear
ing the statements of Rev. Strong and the
commissioner the presbytery granted the
request.
The pastoral relations of Rev. A. d.
Mitchell, of the Paxton church, few miles
east of this city, were also dissolved by the
presbytery.- Patriot
