This moruing, the jailor discovered that one of his birds had Down, and nothing was left to tell of his Might but the rags that hung on the stone wall. In a short period of time the news spread over the town, and a large number of persons visited the jail to see where he got out. Hie prisoner was placed in the lower cell on the south side of the jail, and made his escape from the cell at the southwest corner. He had been provided with two sizes of augers and a saw, of some description, with these tools he made a hole through the floor about eighteen inches square, cutting through a sill ten inches or more in depth. This aperture allowed him to reach the ground, about live feet below the flour. After reaching the ground he pried out a stone from the wall and gained the jail yard, llavlug pro vided himself with a rope, made from the sheets of his bed, he attached a stone to the rope and cast it over the wall, where it caught on the outer coping thus holding the rope so that he was enabled to scale the wall, and make good his escape. The marks of the auger and saw were not fresh showing that lie had made prepara tions for his escape for some time The namo of the recent prisoner is Edward Garmerly, and he w as sen teneed by the court, yesterday, to two years at hard labor in the Western Penitentiary for the seduction of a young woman at St. Mary's about a year ago. We would suggest In this connection that the floor of the cell from which Gannerly escajied, is in very bad condition, and might be all taken up by a strong man without the aid of any tools whatever. We might make some more suggestions but for bear for the present. ELK COUNTY REPUBLICAN CONVEN. T10N.

J. History of the 10"tli Regiment. Having gone lo considerable trouble to furnish, for "History of the Pennsylvania Volunteers," at the request of the Stat; Historian, a sketch of the l'5ih P. V. we found that owing to the abridgment of that work, very little of the data lurnished was used, and that a very unsnticfactory ac count of the regiment was given. We then yielded to the urgent request of metnberi aud frieuds of the 105th, and agreed lo finish and publish a complete ''History of the 105th" in book form. In 1873 we hud the work almost ready for publication, but owing to circumstances beyond our control, we were obliged to defer publishing it at that time. But we have now concluded to finish it, nnd having completed arrange ments fur its publication, as soon as the work can be carefully revised it will be put in the publisher's hands. The work is designed to be a full history of all the battles, marches, it J., participa ted in by the regiment; with a personal record of each man, biographical sketches of all the officers, nnd copies of All official reports as copied from the originals at Washington. U is our desire to make the work a complete, truthful nud impartial history of the regiment; one that every member of the regiment will be proud to hand down to his children. Then, soldiers of the 105th, we cull upon you to aid us by at once seudiug us any fact, incidents, or autidotes relatiui; to yourselves, your com rades, or the regiment in general. Look up your old letters, diaries, &a., nnd send us all the data you can before we make a filial revision of the work. It is your his tory we are writing and we ask your aid to enable us to give you credit for all the glory you wou. The work will contain full page port rails of Cols. McKnight and Craig, Lieutenaut tirccuuwalt, aud two or three others of the line officers, and already twelve portraits for groups are promised. It is necessiry that the officers decide at onoe concerning portraits, as the work is now ready for a final revision, all data must be sent in within twenty days. R. M. Scott. Brookville, Pa.

Taking advantage of the fnol ihat the papers are not sufficiently in terested to report him, he is said to have taken up the weapons of the politician of low grade misrepresentation and abuse. His canvass is exciteing very little interest, even among his partizans. The amount of grain carried over the Wubash Railroid during August was the largest ever known in the history of the road, an uveruge of 200 car-load of grain being received daily at tho elevators in loledo- The total number of cars during the niouuth was fi,000 measuring about 34 miles in length, and carry iug 2, 100.000 bush eh of grain the estimated production of 01,000 ucres valued at !il,O08,000. Hurrisburg, Sept. 12. The Governor to day issued a proclamation recommending the citizens ot I'ennsylvama and desceti dants of l'ennsylvanians residing abroad to observe Thursday, September 28th, 1870, as a holiday, and that they assemble in Philadelphia on that day to take part in the ceremonies aud assist in making the day memorable in the annals of the Common wealth. The day selected will be the an niversary of the adoption of the first cou sliluiion of Pennsylvania. A singular instance of an affection en tertained by a norse for another appears among the trotting horses at the Lawrence Kid in g 1'ark. A bay gelding, owned by C. 11 Oilman, of Brooklyn, N. V., wheu an colt, was pastured with a gray horse, for whom the coll conceived such an enect'on that it has been impossible to separate them. He will not eat unless the old horse now nearly 20 years old, eats at the same time and he cannot be removed from his stall unless the old horse is led out with him. In Philadelphia Sunday considerable damage was doue by a heavy storm which prevailed all day. tortious ot the roots of tue .Mnu bxhibitiou biulliux aud Mi- chiuery Hull were blown away, and injury was done to many ot tue exhibus, Ameri can and LngsisU exhibits suffered most. beveral others of the smaller buildings within the grounds were somewhat duiuaged by the storm. In all sections of lhe city trees were blown down, roofs and chimneys carried away and several persons injured -noue seriously. According to Hon. Demas Barnes, Demo crat, ex-Coiigressiuau and editor of the Biooklyn Argus, 8. J. Tilden cannot carry New Vorkiu November. Mr. Barnes says he helped tu elect Tilden Governor iu 1874, and auows how it was doue, which be does not explaiu further than tins. Mr. 'iilden was not eleoted Governor of this bluie by 00,000 majority. His ma jority was only 38,411 on a total vote of uvir 700.000. Uvei oue-third of this uia jorny, 12,'J'JH, was obiaiued iu this oily by the help of lhe Argus Outside of New York and Brooklyn, Tilden waa beaten iu I lhe btute by 17,077 majority. Political Notes. Iloth Peymour and his health are still on the decline. Governor Hayes will celebrate his fifty-fourth birthday in October Tilden, the perjurer, is what they call him now, instead of t he reformer. The reform club of New York has endorsed the nomination of Governor Morgan. The Hon. Ben. Wood, of New York city, has bet $400 against $2000 that Hayes will carry New Jersey. The Erie Republicans are raising jiolcs nil over the county, and tho camjinigii there is fairly on its legs. (Speeches are being delivered in In diana at the rate of tioo a week, and a full vote is certain to be polled. We never knew the Democratic papers so unanimous ns they are about Tilden's perjuries they don't say a word. The emblems of the Hayes and Wheeler club at York area pftchfork nnd wheel to pitch into the canvass aud wheel out a heavy vote. The Democratic city officers of Ual timore have been assessed two per cent, of their salaries for camjiaign purposes, und some of them are com plaining about this kind of "reform." Allen, Thurman and Pendleton are astonished when they read in eastern Democratic pa pern that "Hayes has no record." Who was it that whipped us so confoundedly? they ask. The other day lhe St. Louis Repub lican, one ot Tilden's supjiorters, printed on its editorial page Fattier Ryan's tribute to "The Conquered thinner." The Atlanta (Ga. I Com monwealth, on the Soth ult.. gave a prominent place to a series of verses eulogistic of John Wilkes Booth. General J. M. Tuttle, of Iowa, says he is constantly receiving from ex soldiers who refuse to sujijiort Tilden and Hendricks. Indeed, he says, "I don't see how an intelligent soldier can do anything else, as the rebels and copperheads are now running the party their own way." South Carolina Democratic papers are printing the rebel war records of their candidates for State officers. Of one it is said that "he participated in the grand movement ol Gen. Jackson hurling McClelland's advance forces back into Maryland," and that his was "a military career of which any Carolinian might be proud." Kev. llarnar Sears, agent of the Peabody Fund, has written to North Carolina, where a Democratic oflicial stole the fund, as follows: "Tho money due to your schools has long nceii in tne nanus ot ex-;supt. l'ool. l?ut to save you and your teachers from further embarrassment, I will pay it a . second time and look to Mr. Pool to refund." It Is noteworthy that the General James 11. Steadman who is believed to have projected the now exploded story relative to Governor Hayes' tax re turn, was wrong about -300,000 in his accounts when General Grant re moved li i 111 from the New Orleans Collectorship. Appearances are that the Republi cans can elect Hayes without carrying Indiana in October, but ujion tho whole they should carry Indiana. We are indeed of the ojiinion that when a party tights to win a national battle, it should carry all the States within its jxiwer. Cincinnati Commercial. "The Democrats chose Sevmour with their eyes open chose him be cause of his objectionable record, and must bear the burden of their choice as well as the disgrace of their own trickery aud double dealing with him and with the public to the end. They declared then that they could not hojie for success with anybody else, and tho people will now take them at their word." New York Tribune. The Democrat have been bragging very loudly that Governor Tilden has saved New York some live million dollars in decreased taxes, but it turns out now, as the Comptroller's last re port shows, that this reduction is simjily due to the extinguishment of the State debt in the ordinary course of liquidation, and that the cost of Mr. Tilden's State administration is just as costly, if not more than any preceding. Our South Carolina correspondent is almost sure the Democrats will carry that State at the ajijiroaching election. We presume there is no doubt of it. The Southern Confeder acy would not be solid without South Carolina. The ltciiublican majority in the State will be overcome, as iu Mississippi. The Derringer policy will prevail. That is the reason why there is such a howl about bayonets. Cincinnati Commercial. This sentiment from a Mississippi inner reminds us nt Konipthimr. Wasn't such talk common in 18uo? 'If the coming election demonstrate that the sentiments of the Republican party are the sentiments of the North, then let the South make tier arrange ments to let tne jNortti severely alone. We believe we will find within our borders sufficient of patriotism and ability to devise some means of ren dering ourselves Independent of those who hate and would destroy us." The Democratic candidate for tho Presidency is worth about five mill ions of dollars. Some of his partiut friends will not put the figure less than six millions. He has been in the enjoyment (especially since the abolishment of the income tax) of an income exceeding three hundred thousand dollars a year. He has hail a net return from his Lake Superior iron mines 01 more man a quarter ot a minion Hollars in one year. He will be able- to live comfortably without tho .Presidential salary ana perqul sites. thn. Com. The New York Sun having stated that Hon. Carl Schurz, in writinsr to a friend in Washington, had aaid that in Ohio the German vote was arrayed against the Republicans, and he had doubts whether Hayes would carry the State, a friend of the ex-Senator telegraphed him yesterday about the Sun's story, asking for the facts ami the privilege of making his reply pub lic. Tho following is Mr. Scliurz's reply: Michigan City, Ind., Sept. 12, 1870. I wote no such letter, aud entertain no such opinion. Ohio seems to me sure for Hayes. Use this as you please. Signed C.
