THROUGHOUT this country there are
many people who believe In the lay
ipg-on of hands, commonly called
sspow wowing," as remedy or cure for
certain diseases or ailments, and those
who practice it are supposed to possess
some power unknown to the public
mind that is derived from Deity to
assist them in the practice of curing by
the method spoken of. A physician IN
Reading, this State, has been pow
wowing," or " laying on hands," for
many diseases, but be does not ascribe
it to any supernatural power delegated
to hi@. He says it is nothing more or
.ess than "animal aagoetism," and that
in every case wherein disease has not
tee far wrecked the patient, and he can
make himself felt and get the entire
confidence of the sick one, charge is
rapidly wrought on the patient.

"TuE Jewish Chronicle, speaking of
the cosmopolitan character of Freema-
sonry, and alludIng TO it as being a
beautiful illustration of the principle of
brotherly lovo, says that the fret Ma
sonic lodge has just been organized in
Jerusalem. Its ethuographical peculi-
ar ties are that its master is an Amerl-
can, lis postmaster is an Englishman,
its senior warden is German, its junior
warden is a native, its treasurer is a
Turk, its secretary is Frencbman, Its
senior deacon is Persian, and its jun
ior deacon is another Turk. Its reli-
glous peculiarities are that there are
christians, Mahometans and Jews
among its members"

Hatranft for the Presidency in
1876

The Republican State Convention of
August, 1874, that convened and trans
acted its business at Harrisburg, pre-
sented Governor John Z. Hsrtranft as
candidate for the Presidency in 1876,
in the l4rh resolution as follows:
"That, entertaining the fullest conf
dence 10 the high personal integrity,
ability. and craftsmanship of Governor
John f. Hartranff, We unhesitatingly
present hin 70 our Republican friends
throughout tire Union as candidate
for nomination to the Presidency in
1876. His blaRel<s and exalted char
acter as 4 man, bis extraordinary abil-
iiy as an administrative Office, the
purity Of bis private and public life,
and his splcud4d record as sol
der, all commend him TO An enthusias-
sic aud hearty support for a position
which be is SO sell 0ua!ised to adorn."
What was declared ty the above res
olution By the Republican State Con-
vertion of this Ccnnonwealth is being
re-echoed from almost every State in
the Union. Already Governor Hart
ranft is looked upon BY large bodies Of
Republicans throughout the country,
generally, as among the fttest mea for
the Presidential candidacy in lS16.-
The ees.s that have been applied 20 him
dave all been Of the most crutial kind,
and he has stood them 10 such q man
ner that the highest satisfaction is ex-
pressed. The country will rally under
his banner in 1876 with as much, in
deed more, enthusiasm and confidence
than under that of any other public
man in the country. He possesses
many of the sterling qualities of the
lamented Lincoln, and no man leaves
his presence with other feeling or i'm
preston than that he is q man Of the
keeuest diseernment and best inten-
tions. Give the country Harirsnft for
the Presidency in 1876, aud Republi-
canism, or Northern civilization will
again triumph and be placed on an en-
during basis.

.sers at the knees, tearing his clerical
coat, and besoilinz his person generally
in Newtown dust.
The spectacle Of the fallen clergy
man demoralixed The children Of both
persuasions. The door was occupied
BY the combatants, SO taking the only
means of egress left to them, they es-
capped through the windows and fed to
their homes.
But Father McCa-tin was not ecu
quered. lie arose infuriated, and again
attacked the teacher. The latter thrust
him back, and at that moment several
staIwart supporters of the clergyman
arrived with the evident intention Of
wresking vengeance upon Mr. Day.
7 he teacher was in critical position,
but he was not discouraged. He told
them that he had only asserted his un-
doubted right, and that they would get
into trouble If they inoiested him. In
short, he SHIELD the foe in play" until a
party of his own friends arrived. Then
the combat was with some difficulty
prevented from becoming general. AT
last the rival factions dispersed, but the
school was closed that day, for the chill
dren could not be induced to return.
On Tuesday morning mob collected
around the school house, and az first
hindered Mr.. Day from opening it. Mr..
