Sixty-five conversion shave taken place at the NEW CLOTHING STORE! is proposed to be laid off from the present territory of Dakota. It will comprise all that portion of Dakota lying between its northern boundary the forty -ninth parallel of latitude and the forty-sixth parallel, being bounded on the east by the State of Mm nesota.and on the west by Montana territory Mr.

Howard, of Michigan, offered a resolution in the Senate, on Friday; looking to the cession of that portion of the British possessions lying northwest of Lake Superior, This was done on his own responsibility.but not without consulting several northwestern Senators. It may possibly have the effect to introduce the question more easily to the Joint High Commission. The President retained the disabilities bill until after it became a law without his signature, and then returned it with the reason of not signing it, which was that while it relieved active rebels from taking the test oath, it obliged others, and Union men to take the oath. He intimated that a bill providing for uuiversal amnesty would meet his approval. S.

13. The Commission arrived here from Samana Bay yesterday. Every one connected with the j. arty is in excellent health. Want of coaling facilities detained the ship six days at Samana, The Commission found that the inhabitants of that peninsula very generally favor annexation.

A full investigation made into the ownership of land around the harbor showed that no United States official is involved in any private transactions there whatever. Fab-ens and associates and O'Sulli van have a perpetual lease, at a nominal price, of nearly all the available water front for large vessels around the harbor of Samana. There is no valuable mineral land in that section, The Commission landed here this morning and were formally received by Baez. Mr. Wade explained their character and object.

Baez, and his cabinet gave them a cordial welcome. Baez said peace and a stable government would follow a union with the United States the people were all anxious for the union Cabral had no Dominicans with him the commanders of the force he was supposed to command where Haytiens, and Uayti was the real mover in the whole matter. He had information that an incursion was to be made while the commission was here, to influence them, and from his agents he had learned the whole movement.

With ia a few years, the proprietor has laid some four miles of underdrain, thereby causing the low and spouty land to produce excellent erops. In foot these farms are now in the highest state of cultiva tion, and as productive as any in the State. Communicated.

Editor or the Gazitts. There is a statement in your last paper that I think you should eorrect. Ton stated that the Selins Grove and North Branch R. Bill, now before the Legislature, is for the building of a Rail Road from Selins Grove to North' umberland. In this you are partially in error.

The bill authorizes the building of a R. R. from seiins urove to cunoury, or JMortnumberland, or to any point between the two, and, of course, will go where the most favorable terms can be secured For the Gazette. Cure Tor Hydrophobia. Mr.

James A. Hubbard, of Boone county, 111.. says "Eighteen years ago my brother and myself were oitten by a mad dog. A sneep was bitten at the same time. Among the many cures offered for the little boys, a friend suggested the following wmcn ne saia wouia cure tne bite or a rattlesnake 'Take a root of common upland ash generally call ed black-asn peel off toe bark and boil it to a strong tea, and of this drink Whilst my father was preparing the above, the sheep was attacked with hydrophobia.

When it became so fatigued by its spasms, that it could not stand up, my father drenched it with a pint of the ash-bark decoction, hoping to ascertain whether he oould depend upon it for the cure of bis sons. Four hours after the drench was given, the animal got up and went quietly to grazing. My brother and I took the medicine eight or ten days, one gill three times a day. No effects of the dreadful poison ever appeared in either of us. It has been used very successfully in snake-bites to my knowledge." A farmer writing in the Kent New; Chaterton, says a certain cure for hydrophobia is: "Take immediately after being bitten, one and a half ounces of elecampane root, (green or dry) slice or bruise it; put it in a pint of fresh milk, and boil that down to half a pint; strain, and when cold drink it, fasting for at least six hours afterwards.

Next morning repeat the dose, using two ounces of the root, fasting as before, and the third morning repeat this same dose, fasting again, and the cure will be effected. Tne green root is preferred, but dry will answer, and can be had in most of our drug stores, if not saved from the garden at home." WUliamtport, ieb. lotn, 1S71. MARRIED. JOHN LYNN.

SIMMONS FOUKD. Saturday night it was resolved to employ the well-known submarine diver, Lowe, of 308 West street, New York City, to explore the sunken wreck of New Hamburg in search of the body of Doc. Simmons and the body of an unknown man who was riding on the locomotive with him. This arrangement iras expressly in accordance with the wishes of Simmon's brother and the engineers of the Hudson River road, and it was determined that the effort should be made on Sunday morning. Lowe's reputation as a diver is good, and implicit confidence was placed in fiisn.

At one time at New Orleans he was under a steamship's hull four hours. Sunday morning be was down 34 minutes when he returned with the body of the stranger, who was on Simmon's engine. He found it embedded in the debris south of where the locomotive lay, and under the tender. As the diver appeared on the surface, with the limpid form in his arm, a cry of horror ran through the throng, and there were exclamations ot "that's Doc," but as the body was brought to full view none recognized it. It was tenderly taken charge of at once, and the clothing searched for anything which might lead to identification.

There were found papers and letters recommending him as a locomotive engineer, and a card of membership of the Engineers' Brotherhood. On all the letters and papers, and on the brotherhood card, his name was written James Humph rey, of Carmansville, Pa. The remains were found at 10.25 a. m. Again the diver dis appeared below the surface, but was not gone so long the second time when he returned with the form of Doc.

Simmons, the heroic eneieeer. The body was not recognized at once by many of the dead engineer's friends who atnnd around, and tears filled rnanv an eve, The dead man's story of his stern perfor mance of duty, and his heroic attempt to save the lives of his passengers, bad already been told in the reversed lever and the open throttle valve, bat it had not been told ho fearlessly he must have met his death. That was seen at a glance as the pallid features of the corpse came to view. Cold, stern and rigid was that face no distortion, no apparant agony. Silently grief-stricken friends and comrades bore his remains to dry land.

No mutilation, no scars, nor gashes he most have been drowned. Everything about him goes to establish that theory. Unlike the rest of the bodies his was not saturated with oil, nor was there hardly a smell of oil about him. lie, too, was found at the south end of whare the engine lay. and under the ruins of the tender.

He and bis friend Humphrey must have gone down together, and as the engine topped over with them, it caught the telegraph wires which were carried down, and the bodies of the engineers became entangled in them.

The Coal Strike. TBS KAILKOAD COMPANIES TAKE THE BULL BT TBSHORXS. Scbajtton, Pa. Feb. 17.

The Republican or to-morrow will contain the following: We understand that the Lehigh Valley and Lehigh and Susquehanna Railroad, com panies yesterday notified the coal operatives who have been shipping over their roads, that hereafter, until farther notice, the tolls from Wilkesbarre to Elizabethport will be $7.10 per ton. Before the suspension they were $2.75 "This tariff effectually prevents all the operators who have commenced mining from hipping their coal. It affects not only the miners, but one hundred thousand other people living in Luzerne county alone, ana all elsewhere depending upon the coal interest of this region. I "In view of the combination of the great carrying companies, petitions are extensively circulating throughout the Wyoming alley asking the Legislature to curtail the franchises of the coat carrying companies. These papers are being very generally signed by all classes, and a stringent act for relief from such oppressive tolls is being prepared for an early introduction into the Legislature.

SERIOUS ASPECT OF THE SUSPENSION. Pottstille, Feb. 18. The suspension of mining operations in Schuylkill county eems to be assuming serious aspects. Business is suffering severely, and there are loud protests from all quarters against the leaders of the Workingmen's Benevolent Association.

There are rumors this morning of furnaces along the line intending to blow out rather than to continue work under the present unsettled state of affairs. leoal pkocesdi.vos against the transportation COMPANIES.

A little son of John O'Brian, of Danville, was severely injured on Monday afternoon of last week, by falling from a balustrade, at school, down which he was sliding. He fell a height of about 18 feet, striking his head on the floor below, and was piak ed up in an Insensible condition.

There seems to be a reaction going on in New York against the Democratic party. At the recent charter election in Bingham- ton, Col. Walton wight was elected Mayor by 872 majority, the largest majority ever given in the city. This result of a charter election, although apparently insignificant, is actually one of the first signs of a "great political reaction" in the Empire State: a reaction which will restore New York in 1872, to her former high place in the Republican column. Exemption From Taxation.

A number of bills exempting Odd Fellows' halls, cemetery companies, parsonages and similar property from taxation, is now pending in the Legislature. the policy or passing such bills is exceedingly bad. Legislators should bear in mind that the relief of one class of property from taxation only increas es the burdens upon another. Many of these cemetery companies are money-making institutions, and are neither charitable nor religious. They return their stockholders handsome profits on the investment, and should be taxed with other property.

This practice of exempting them is an evil which should be abated. Patriot and Uni on. DcATB OF TBS HEAVIEST Mil IN pEXHgTLVAHA. Toe Pottaville Journal says: The death of Mr. John Boussum, of Schuylkill Haven, which oocured on Thursday night, after a brief sllness of four days, occasioned by taking cold and its settling on his lungs, has been the all-absorbing topio in this community ever since its occurrence.

Indeed, so muoh interest has been excited, and so ma ny questions raised with regard to the deceased, that we have taken some pains to inquire into the matter, and give a brief account of his life, as well as his death. John Bousium was born in Manheim township the present site of Schuylkill Haven in 1819, and was consequently fifty-two years of age. In the 1849 he entered the service of the Schnlkill Navigation and it is reported of him that shortly after so doing he met with an accident by the bias of a rot which raised him in the air some dis tance, and injured him considerable in bis descent. Shortly after recovering this shock he commenced gaining flesn, and notwithstanding his frame was only of medium stature about fire feet ten inches he soon pulled down 494 pounds on the scales with perfect ease, and has for many years been considered the heavies mon in Pennsylvania. One would naturally suppose that a man nearly as broad as long would scarcely be able to move around without assistance, but this was not the case with Mr.Boufsum.

He has performed the duties of Lock Tender at Schnlkill Haven for these many years, and was active and as supple as the majority of those who carried less than half his own weight of flesh, and has usually enjoyed excellent health notwithstanding the constant exposure the duties of his position have subjected him to. It js however related of him that about three years since he felt unwell, and got the idea into his head that be was not long for this world. At that time he was in the habit of sleeping in the second story of his residence, and it suddenly occurred to him that should he be taken away suddenly while up stairs it would be an unhandy piece of work to get him down, and from that time to the time of his death be has slept nightly in his watch box at the canal look, where, on Thursday night, he olosed his eyes In bis last, long sleep; and that, too, at his post of duty, where he was ever found in life. After his death it was found impossible to remove him from the watch-box without enlarging the door, and this was done by tearing out nearly the whole end of the building, when he was removed to the collector's office, near by, where his remains were viewed by thousands of people from different sections of the country. The coffin in which he was placed was made of very heavy plank, and securely fastened together with iron bands and braoes to prevent the possibility of an accident while moving the eorpse.

Its measure, inside, was two feet nine inohes wide across the breast, eight feet three inohes around, and five feet eleven inches in length being large enough to hold four ordinary sited men, with room for half a docen small boys. Pennsylvania Items. Watsontown is clamoring for a bank. Sheep-killing dogs cost Lycoming county $2,148.10 last year. The Danville, Hazleton and 'Wilkesbarre Railroad Company want two hundred men to work on the north end of their road, near Black miles from Hasleton.

The Bucks county treasury is practically bankrupt, and county bonds will have to be issued to carry the expenses till the next taxes are collected. The State Normal School at Bloomsburg, Prof. a a w.n.H.. A the 22nd inst. Last year the liquor dealer's licenses in Dauphin oounty amounted to $8,693.

The building of the railroad through Muncy will infuse new life and vigor into that town. Many improvements are already projeoted. Four persons were baptized in the river, just below the Shamokin Dam, by the Rev.

The Erie oounty poor house is rapidly ap proaching completion. It is an immense building, being 200 feet long by 135 deep, three' stories in height, with Mansard roof. It is of brick. It is proposed to build a railroad from Harris burg to Hamburg, Berks county. Over one thousand persons died in Reading during 1870.

Lock Haven is going to borrow $75,000. A movement ia being made in the section interested to have a new county erected out of parts of Northumberland, Schuylkill and Columbia, the new baby to be named North Schuylkill. Huntingdon county boasts of a young lady of eighty-nine summers, who has worn a calico dress twenty-three years without washing or soiling it, and who earns one dollar a day sewing. Some of the boys and girls of Newport, Perry county, having behaved badly at a religious revival, a member of the church, in the "News," takes them to task sharply. He says the girls "chatter and smirk, and bob their heads about like senseless monkeys and shift and twitch their bewitching bodies as though the benohes were cushioned with chestnut burs." The next semi-annual meeting of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias is to beheld in Allen-town on the 25th of July next.

-The Huntingdon Journal says that, on last Friday, Philip Chamberlin was descending a shaft in a colliery, at North Point, Bedford when his head struck a frame, and his neck caught upon a pin. His head was instantly torn off and impaled upon the pin, while his body fell to the bottom of the shaft. When the head was discovered it was fast on the pin, with eyes wide open staring apparently at those who gathered around. The City Councils of Harrisburg have appropriated $79,758 for the expenses of the current year Price Ingram, of Harrisburg, whose arrest we noticed some months ago for personating Mr. Daniel Mengis, of Northumberland county, in going on the bail bond of John Mengis, we learn has been convicted of the charge before the V.

The stories of trouble here are untrue.

The commission intend to start for home in about four weeks. To-nigkt Baez agreed to give a safe conduct to Cabral or any of his officers to come here and meet the com mission, and a messenger will be dispatched at once. The State Convention. The State Convention of the Republican party, which meets at Harrisburg on the 10th of March, will be in many respects an important assemblage. Its immediate duty will be to nominate candidates for Auditor and Surveyor General, who will be satisfactory to the masses of the party and can carry the State.

A duty almost equally important wilt be to adopt such a platform of principles as the Republican masses of the State can fairly and honestly endorse. Almost two years have elapsed since the Republican party of this State have met in convention. During that time there have been many changes. Old things have passed away and new ones taken their places. Old issues have become obsolete and new issues are being rapidly developed by the progress of events.

We do not propose to enumerate these, orto indicate the policy to be pursued in regard to them, except so far as they relate to the great principles upon whicn tne party was founded. These should always be kept in view, and no policy endorsed, no principle incorporated into the platform, that will not square with those undying sentiments of Justice and Right that brought the party into existence, crowned it with victory ana honor, and made it the instrument in accomplishing the most beneficent reform that adorns the civilization or the age. During the period that has elapsed since the last State convention there has been considerable strife in the party in This. however, has in a measnre happily subsided. It is of the last import ance that it should not be revived, we state what everv intelligent Republican knows to.be true when we say that the mem bers of the party of this State cannot auord to be at war with each other.

We must have peace, or the common enemy will drive us from the field. Every delegate who goes to the Harrisburg Convention should be im pressed with this fact. man should be sent there who is not willing to sink all personal or factional considerations for the sake of the unity and integrity of the Republican party. Foreign Newi. London, Feb.

20. A report was current at the stock exchange to-day, that Germany would demand of France as the terms of peace the payment of a sum equal to two hundred and eighty millions of pounds Ster ling and the cession of the province of Al sace and the greater portion or Lorraine, with the fortified cities of Metz, Thionville and Bel fort. A despatch from Versailles, dated the 19th, state that the Emperor of Germany will lunch at L'Ecole Militaire on his entry into Paris, in consequence of fever having been reported as existing at the Tuileries. It is the intention of the Emperor to return to Berlin directly after the review of troops in the Champ de Mars. The South German sovereigns are invited to attend the review personally, but at present no answer has been received.

The Crown Prince is to receive a triumphal entry into Berlin, where he has gone to inspect the second army. He will return on the 23rd inst. The special correspondent of the London Times telegraphs from Versailles, as follows The Moniteur says a prolongation of the armistice would injure the position of the Germans. Germany is resolved to continue the war if compensation for the past and guarantees for the future are not given. Germany must insist on guarantees, and especially those procurable by the occupation of Paris.

No food is now allowed to leave Versailles for Paris. The TYmea'Berlin correspondent telegraphs that the German terms of peace have been presented in definitive form, and are an ultimatum. The same correspondent says a prolongation of the armistice is aecorded in return for the surrender of Belfort, No further extension of the armistice will be conceded on any ground whatever. If a treaty of peace is not concluded on the Ger man terms, or if such terms are not met a satisfactory spirit by noon of the 23rd inst. the German armies will immediately march southward.

It is believed here that the French National Assembly will name a triumvirate, including an admiral and general, to arrange terms of peace, and that they will then pass a new electoral law and dissolve, shifting the responsibility of reorgan izing trance on the shoulders of others. Government Pensions to Soldier Of 1812. Ths President has signed the bill granting a pension of eight dollars per month to sol diers and sailors of the war of 1812 and their widows. This act repeals the law granting a State pension of 40 dollars in the opera tion of a clause in the act of Assembly of March 24, 1868, which provides that the State annuity shall cease as soon as provi sion shall be made by Congress for tne sol diers and their widows. Those who hitherto have been drawing the pension of 40 from theState.throngh the County Treasurer, will now be entitled to receive $90 from the Government on application to the Pension Bu reau.

There are a considerable number of State pensioners in this county. Washington Items. Gov. Alcorn has made known his inten tion to resign his U. 8.

Senatorship to which he was some time ago chosen by the Legislature of Mississippi, and it is hinted he will resign the office of (iovernor also and retire to private life. This is an unusual proceeding, especially for a young man. It is believed that Senator Revels, whose term will expire on the 4th of March, will be chosen to the full term to succeed himself. It is stated that the Senate Committee appointed to investigate Senator Sprague's connection with alleged cotton speculations in Texas.during the war, have not yet taken a step toward getting at the truth of the matter. Why not? Congressman Bowcn was criminally tried at Washington last week for bigamy.

The jury failed to agree, there being only one for acquital out of the twelve. There was a great deal of hard swearing. The Congress-man was at once rearrested and will be tried again. Altogether it is adisgracefull affair. A new territory, to be called Chippewa, S.
