- IcT "S5 agwaggaaagaajaim LANCASTER DAILY mTEIMGENCER, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 1882. .dmastci thiteUiflenrrt .. TUESDAY EVENING, JTJl2f 18, MB2. Ceacenlsg "IHeM.' Chairman Cooper is determined to let his party know that he is doing some thing, lie has been engaged in distribu ting, what he calls " an argument show ing that the contest for governor h really between General Beaver and Con boiler Patthon." Without waiting for his executive, committee to meet and make answer to the proposals of the In dependents, Cooper assumes that they are rejected ; and as he appointed that committee and' knows his men he can safely assume this. He berates the In dependents very soundly for their failure to nibble at the cheese in his trap, and scornfully refers to four of the candi dates posing '" in -ihff self-sacrificing at titude of martyrdom " while McMichael, " through a simulated or real difference of opinion, proclaims in an incoherent and inconsistent way that he rejnains n candidate, and shall himself be the judge whether he shall support any nomination made even under harmonious conditions. Exit McMichael." Whereupon Cooper consigns them all to the demnition bow wows as "factious, insincere, trifling and dishonorable men," with whom lie and his can have no affiliation nor fur ther negotiations. Having thus taken the responsibility of declaring the issue to be simply whether Pattison or Beaver is to be gov ernor, the Republican chairman aban dons the tariff question, which was the leading issue last week, and boldly ar raigns Mr. Pattison for having leeu born on the south side of the Maryland line, the sou of a Methodist itinerant preacher. Besides this unpardonable of fense Pattison committed the henious crime of coming into Pennsylvania at the mature age of six, with the deliber ate purposes of a " mere adventurer." That nativity elsewhere entirely dis qualifies one from serving the people of Pennsylvania in a public capacity, Cooper amply proves in this able para graph : Tho office of governor is ono that spe cially calls for an intimate knowledge on the part of its occupant of the people of tho state, their peculiarities and local idiosyncrasies, their special wants and desires, and of the measures necessary to promote their varied interests. This is a knowledge which none but a native can fully attain. A man must grow up among tho people to understand them fully ; and it is the unwritten knowledge and ex perience thuB acquired, and which only a native Pennsylvaniau can acquire, that is essential to tho success of any one in the gubernatorial chair. Seeing that Thaddeus Stevens came into Pennsylvania when he was 23, Ben jamin Franklin 17, and Robert Morris 13; that Blaine left this state after he had grown to manhood, that Daniel Webster was 1 when he entered Massa chusetts, that Henry Clay was 21 before he ever set foot on Kentucky soil and Andrew Jackson of full age before he went to Tennessee, that Abraham Lin- ooln wuo .ilr,.. r Illinois hpforn Ijg had grown to the full stature of manhood and Sergeant. - rrentisshad attained ma majnrity lipfnre he landed in Afi.soio. sippi it is a little remarkable how the men whom their adopted stales learned to cherish, and whose memories they adore, became acquainted with the "special wants and desires ' of their people and " the measures neces sary to promote their materal interests," although they were aliens to the soil of these states at an age when Pattison was growing up with Pennsylvania and fitting himself for that brilliant career in which he has already done the state such signal service. As controller of Philadelphia he ha3 done more thau any other official-whoin that city ever had to accomplish municipal reform and open the way for the wider field of state re form. .It must be borne in mftid that Mr. Pattison wa3 elected both times without the intervention or assistance of the Committee of One Hundred. No such organization then existed, and many of its members, as individuals, did not support Mr. Pattison. It grew out of his labors ; it was organized to sup port the work which he had almost singlehanded begun. It is no wonder that his work does not suit Cooper and his party. It has dislodged the corrupt Philadelphia ring from power and driven the thieves from their stronghold. Penn sylvania ftels far more pride in him than in degenerate native born sons who have sold their birthright and shamed their commonwealth by betrayal of trust, and abuse ofpower. Fi03i the beef-eaters of the custom house, the loungers in thecapitol aud the incumbents of the" thousands of sine cures who hang like barnacles upon the body politic nothing is to be expected but liberal responses -to Rubbell's levy. They get and hold their offices upon the implied condition that they shall use and abuse them for the party service ; they are appointed on this principle and it is logical and '.consistent that they divide their spoils with their bosses. But "when the day laborers, who are paid by the gov ernment a scant day's wages for a full day's work, are taxed iu the same pro portion the outrage is unbearable. When $17.50 is taken from the man who gets $1.75 per day for ten hours work his balance is not so large as thai of the easy-going loafer who pays $100 out of the $3,500 per year which he draws for doing nothing. f tIr Mr. Pattison, in the exercise 'of what Cooper calls the "merely clerical duties of controller of the city of Phila delphia," could save to that city millions of money and; reduce its. debt for tho first time in nearly thirty ' years, wh'at could he do if entrusted with the larger duties of governor of the common wealth ? -n-a- Ma. Robesox, being again remimjed that he has made no adequate answer; to tne cnarge that he is a thief and perjurer, retorts that Mr. Hewitt has a ridhf athjer-in-:w, This ia about the ablet.defense i that? HObeson has yet made, 'if1 J .. ..! gJT r :. . j. ms iiepuDucan state committee says " thiftiftafree:lsf of wnailjin intel ligent one." This Is what puts the Beg vlflpatsucqadistfYtuaage, -'- Wm. Penx was born in England, but it is reasonable to assume that nobody ever told Cooper this. To some of the Pennsylvania methods familiar to Cooper we are glad to believe that Mr. Pattison is a stranger. Blaine of Maine ' born in Pennsylvania. must go. He was Andrew Jackson, of Tennessee, was born in North Carolina, but nobody would have thought of it save for Cooper. Kentucky has been reasonably proud of Henry' Clay, but she put'- on sackcloth aud ashes since Cooper's discovery that Clay was born in Virginia. The U. S. Tobacco Journal has entered upon its fourteenth volume and claims to be blessed with greater prosperity and popularity than ever before. It is well for Thaddeus Stave us that he is dead. Tom Cooper would have ran him out of tho state for having boen born in Vermont. Had Cooper been running the stato iu those days, Benjamin Franklin would never have got into the Continental Cou grass. He was born in Boston. Not satisfied with robbing cradle aud grave, Ilubbell's committee roaches down into the diuncr pails of tho laborers at Hell Gate and tries to take $17.50 each from the poorly paid workingmeu. The Republicans who are dissatisfied with Cooper should hire Mr. Tug Wilson for chairman of the Pennsylvania state committee. Ho won't know when he's licked. Tue Cincinnati Commercial has heard a rumor that Mrs. Gai field has received a letter of assessment from Ilubbell's com mittee assessing her for two per cent, of tho late president's salary. Robert Mounts, the eminent finaucier and Revolutionary patriot, was supposed to have reflected honor on himself and Pennsylvania, but Cooper wiitos " Iclia bod" on his gravestone He was bora iu Euglaud. Pennsylvania is for Penusy! vaniaus only. Tue fame of Daniel Webster has been inseparably linked with Massachusetts. But the link is broken. Cooper has dis covered that Webster committed tho un paidouable siu of having boen born in New .Hampshire. The Massachusetts Legislature will at once order tho destruc tion of Bunker Hill monument. When will Ameiicaus be done calling England "the mother country ?'' She in not tho mother couutry. Comparatively few of our people claim descent from Eng land. Ireland and Germany are the teem iug hives from which our states havo boen and aro being peopled. Ireland is our "mother couutry' and Germany "our fatherland." The purpose of the new constitution to obstruct special legislation has been cir cumvented By measures poised iclatrog only to 4 all counties or cities coextensivo with counties containing over 300.000 in habitants," by which it has Deeu unar stood Philadelphia alone was compre hended. But since the late census shows Allegheny county to have 350,000 popula tion, interested parties there propose to avail themselves of the benefits of this legislation. The salary heretofore leceived by the district attorney of Allegheny is $5,000 a year. He was re-elected since the last census, and on last Saturday he brought suit to recover the additional $10,000 necessary to make hH salary equal to that of the district attorney of Phila delphia. Should the Allegheny district attorney succeed tho annual expenses of that county will bo materially increased, as the addition will apply to the whole line of county officers. Tho assistant dis trict attorney, of Allegheny couuty, enjoys $1,500 a year. The clevatiou of the county to the legislative first class, increases this 91,500 at one jump to $6,000, and creates in addition a second and third assistant with salaries of $5,000 and $3,000 respect ively. The sheriff is promoted from a $6,500 officer to a $15,000 official, the cor oner from $2,000 to $6,000, tho prothono tary fiom $6,000 to $10,000, the clerk of the courts from $4,500 to $10,000, tho register of wills from $3,500 to $10,000, the recorder of deods from $5,000 to $12, 000, the controller from $4,000 to $10, 030. iKK80NAli.

This hymn was followed by prayer by Bishop Andrews. The remains were then borne to the hearse by six grandsons of the deceased, and in the church memorial ser vices were held. A YACHT CLUK'S UNLUCKY CKUIHE. The Captain of a Pleasure Farty FnUs Over board and Loses .His ljfe The Doily not Recovered. With gay spirits and high hopes the Pickering Bay club hailed away from Christian street warf, Philadelphia, Mon day morning for a three weeks cruise, Nantucket being the objective point. "Six hoars latea it was tho saddest party on the river Michael Downs, the captain was drowned. It was the eighth aunual cruise of the club, which is composed of two dozen young men well-kuown down town. Tho start was mado at 7 o'clock, the warf being drownsd with friends of tho amateur mariners. The vessel was tho scoonor yacht Buckalew, which was diawu by tho tug Boulton. As the craft passed down the harbor the excursionists enjoyed themselves debt merrily. Everything went happily until the pufliug tug and its convoy had arrived abreast " Grubb's Lauding," twenty-five miles below Philadelphia, aud a short dis tance from Maicus Hook. Dowus and Leon Eckert were frolicking ou tho deck and indulging iu a mock sparring exhibi tion under the aliases of Sullivan and Wilson, to the groat entertainment of the rest of the pleasure seekers. It was with in ten minutes of noos, and Downs, who had backed to the side of the yacht, being dazzled by the sun, turned to grasp a coil of rope. His arm slipped, aud he foil overboard between the yacht and tho tug. Immediately all hands sprang to his re lief. In the excitement a rope intended for Downs struck Dr. Groves, treasurer of tho club, aud precious seconds were lost forming a now coil. Frank Stevens jump ed into the water and cut the hawser bold in:; the yacht to the tug. Tho vessels fell off and a boat was lowered. Downs was seen to rise twenty yards away and immo diatoly to disappear. It is supposed ho must have been crushed between tho tug aud yacht when ho Hist rose after his fall. Every effort was mado to rescue him but without success, aud attempts to recover the body were as fruitless. Three members of the club returned to the city last evening as a committco ap pointed to apprise Mrs. Downs of the dreadful tidings. Samuel Baizley was tho spokesman, aud the woman read the story iu his pallid face. Whou ho informed her that her husbaud was no more she foil with a scream of agony, losing conscious ness. Up to a late hour last evening she had nut recovered from the swoon. Mr. Downs resided at 27o. 842 South Secoud street, and was iu tho tallow busi ness He leaves a wife -hut no children.

The Band Flays and a Big Crowd Ch". tt. xx. neubei. cbii., returned home last evening from a Hying trip to Philadelphia, and hearing of the event a number of en thusiastic spii its hired a band of music for the purpose of giving him a reception aud serenade. Mr. Hcnsol arrived at 7:40 p. m. and shortly before 9 the City band, preceded by a number of well-known citi zens and Democratic partisans, started on a short walk aronnd. Tho route led from Centre Square to tho Pennsylvania railroad depot, returning on tho opposite side of North Queen street, thence out East King street to Lime, and to Mr. Hensel's resi dence. By this time the crowd had swelled to unexpected propoitions;the lino num bering six or eight hundred, and including some of our best known representative citizens. At Mr. Hensel's residence tho procession halted, the band played a lively air, and when Mr. Hensol appeared in his doorway B. F. Davis, esq., mounted the steps and on bchalfaof tho Domocracy of Lancaster expressed the deep gratification which Mr. Hensel's election to the state chairmanship had awakened here at his own home and throughout the com monwealth. Ho congratulated tho chair man and the party. He predicted au car nest, aggressive light by tho Democracy under the now leadership, and said tthat the wisdom of tho candidates iu choosing Mr. Hensol to lead the Democratic hosts to victory would be vindicated in November next by tho cleutiou of the first Democrat ic governor that tho state has had for twenty-two years. Mr. Davis was loudly cheered. Mr. Uetisel, in reply, said he felt deeply moved at tho cordial greeting tendered him. Ho found himself in the midst of friends warm and true, to whom ho knew ho could look for earnest support in tho arduous duties he was about to assumo iu tho acceptance of a position that bad been conferred upon him without any interfer ence by his friends or any solicitation by himself. He said the prospect for victory iu this campaign, so far as he has been able to learu from reports from every quarter of tho state, is most cheering. Tho ticket and the platform havo been aunounced lor more than two weeks, aud during that time have remained unchallenged and gathered strength day by day. The candidates were not nominated in a parlor caucus or at boss dictation, but their selection voiced tho Democratic sentiment of tho entire state. As a couseqnenco of this freedom of choice wo have a united, harmonious, aggressive party, moving forward, elbows touching, and without any private griev ances to militate against the common cause. The north joins hands with the south ia approval of the work of tho con vention, the west echoes tho enthusi asm that has been awakened in the cast ; tho ranks are closed up, and tho great army of Democracy is marching onward to victory. Mr. rlenscl added tha , it was tho pur pose of the Democrats to wage an activo and aggressive warfare. The Democrats had nothing to do with the factional quar rels in the ranks of their opponents, nor did they propose to wait until thosu differ ences had been healed or intensified. The battlo would be fought and won without regard to tho prevailing dissensions among tho Republicans. With our matchless ticket and platform wo can well afford to be on the offensive from the very start ; we have nothing to explain ; nothing to dofend ; and where the fight is thickest, and where my duty calls me, added the chairman, there will I always try to be found, conscious that among the raifk and file of the great Democratic party there are no sturdier soldiers of the cause thau right here in old Lancaster, where so much has already been done in wresting power from the hands that had so long abused it.

Barr has for sale, from the publishing house of A. Williams fcCo., Boston, a fife of '"Thaddeus Steveae, Com moner.'' written by E. B. Callender, who is alleged to bo a member of the Boston bar. Mr. Edward MacPberson, who is understood to be the literary, as well as one of the financial executors of Stevens, is about as slow in discharging one trust as the other, and it is no wonder that some unauthorized person has anticipated him. The Boston biographer of our late emi nent fellow-citizen appears to have had no material at hand except that which is com mon property, and as his book, besides, was undertaken mainly to vindicate a "stalwart1' policy in national affans, at a time when such a policy is assailed, he could not be expected to make much of a biography of it. Of the 210 small pages, printed in large type, over 40 are devoted to an appendix which contains the Missouri compromise aad Sumner's eulogy on Stevens.

It is very difficult to understand what excuse can be offered for suoh a work as this. It isjer tainly no more a life of Stevens than the work of Mr. Harris, which was rather a criticism upon his public career, viewed from the directly opposite standpoint to that occupied by Mr. Callender. Mr. Stevens as a Lawyer. Philadelphia Tunes. Intone respect Mr. Callender greatly errs in estimating Mr. Stoveus. He says that Mr. Stevens "was uot a first-class lawyer iu tho true meaning of the term." The one thing in which Thaddeus Stevens most nearly approached perfection in greatness was at the bar, and no one of his legal e.m tempoiaries, either in or out of Pennsylva nia, equalled him iu all the attributes which complete the circle of a great law yer. He was thoroughly grounded in the fundamental principles of the law,J he was a great oiiginal lawyer from the standpoint that law is the perfection of human reason; he was studious, never forgot his reading and ho was exceptionally familiar with de cisions, past an I present, quoting them most aptly from memory; ho was an ex pert in eliciting testimony from witnesses, although asking fewer questions than most of even tho best lawyers; he was au advo cate of singular eloquence and skill, and few men so ably and successfully argued the most abstruse questions of law before the courts. Others equaled or pobsibly surpassed him in some ono attribute of a great lawyer, but no man of his day equaled him iu tho combination of all tho great qualities of a great lawyer. LANDISVILXE CAMFMEETIMU. Its Openlns To-day Large Attendance. This was the first day of the.Landisville campmeuting, which will continue for ten days. The weather is very pleasant and it is uot nearly so warm as in other years'at this time. There is but little dust in tho woods and every tiling presents a bright and cheerful appearance. It was all bus tle and confusion on the ground to-day, as everybody is putting up tents aud getting ready for the meeting, For some days past there havo been several families on tho ground, including that of our old friend Henry Shuberr. He is always among the first on the ground and usually lemains for some time after the meeting concludes. Ho is in a good humor and grcet3 bis many friends with a smile. About forty families are now on the ground and that is a larger number thau on any first day for years. People are arriving on every train aud there are a number of ministers on hand. When our reporter left the ground, Presiding Elder Dickerson, of Philadelphia, had not yet arrived but was expected this afternoon. The first services will be held this evening when there will bo preaching. It is not known who will hold the services, as tho programme is not announced until the presiding elder arrives. Tho hours for services are as follows : G a. m., prayer meeting ; 8, prayer and experience meeting ; 10), preaching ; 1 p. m., children's meeting ; 2), preaching; G, prayer meeting ; 7), preaching. The arrangements at the grounds for board, &c, are almost perfect. The large boarding tent and restaurant are in charge of George E. Wisner, of this city. His rates may be interesting to our lead ers and they aro as follows : For the torn), $7 ; tiansient hoarders, $1 per day ; 50 cents for dinner and 40 cents for breakfast or supper. Children under 12 years of ago aro charged half price. Tho price for ministers is $1 for the term or 75 cents per day. Good rooms under shingle roofs, with two Jiunks, can be had for $3 Ipr $4 for tho term. The music during the camp will be iu charge of Prof. Ellenberger.of Harrisburg, and Prof. Kirkpatrick, of Philadelphia. Tho former has tho book tent, which is also the postollico of thi ground. Isaac Powl & Son, have charge of the transportation. They Lave a lino of bosses and baggago wagons ruuning irom the grounds to the depot. The omnibus fare is 15 cents or 25 for the round trip. Jacob Hollingcr, of this city, will serve in his old position as polico officer and will see that the rules of tho ground are en forced. During tho camp an admission of ten cents will be charged to tho ground and a season ticket cau bo had for 20 cents. No collections aro taken up at tho stand. Both railroads usually sell excursion tickets to tho ground at a Blight reduction. The Pennsylvania company did not do it to-day as their agents had received no orders in regard to it. They were also unablo to tell which of the through trains, if any, would stop. It seems strange tbat this company is always behind at the opening of the camp, and people can obtain little or no information on the secoud day. THE CKOFS. An Abundant Harvest. From all parts of the county come the -- cheering reports of an abundant harvest. The wheat which is about all harvested, is ono of the best crops ever raised. Not only is the yiold large but tho grain is lino and expectations are 25 bushel to the acre. Althopgh corn is later than u&ual.itis show ing very rapid growth, is of good color and will bo a full crop with a few good rains. Oats is short but will bo a good crop as far as tho grain goes ; straw will not bo so plentiful. Potatoss are elegant and bid fair to yiold an immense crop ; in fact all vegetables are looking well, and farmers aro consoling themselves that if they don't have as much tobacco to sell as they hoped for, they will have plenty of bread stuffs. A BOLD KOBHERY. A Kallroad Boss Tackled By Highwaymen. On Saturday near midnight B. W. Hcr ncisy of near Elizabethtowu, fared badly at the bands of two highwaymen who robbed him of $150 iu cash. Mr. Ucrneisy is foreman of sub division D of the Penn sylvania railroad, and on Saturday was pay day. His assailants probably knew this and it induced them to attack him at that time. He left the station and was on his way home when he was pounced upon and robbed. Ho offered resistance but in the tassel that ensued ho was thrown to the ground, his clothing torn and himself somewhat bruised. There is no clue to the robbers. COLUMBIA mm.
