Professing to be an honest man, the candidate of nn honest organization I favor honest money. The volume of the currency should be regulated by legitimate demnnd, and not by the requirements of bank rupts and wild speculators. The currency should be redeemable as early as the exigencies of the Gov ernment will permit, in the currency recognized by all civilized nations. The contracts of the Government should be held as sacred as the con tracts of individuals, and the bonds, theevidenceof its indebtedness, should be paid according to the understand ing between the Government and the lender.

The .Standard Dollar. Washington, Sept. 7. The Secre tary of the treasury has addressed the following notice to the United States treasurer: Treasury, Dep't, Sept. 7, '78. Hon. James Oilfillan, Treasurer U. S.: On and after the 10th day of this month you are authorized at the treas. ury in Washington and at the several sub-treasuries in the United States, to exchange standard silver dollars for United States notes. Very respectfully, Signed, John Sherman, Secretary. Ben. Butler Nominated for Governor. Boston, Sept. 11. The State Con vention of the independent greenback party of Massachusetts met to-day, nearly one thousand delegates occupy ing the scats. Among the delegates was one lady, Mrs. Josephine R. Stone, of Boston. Hon. B. F. Butler was nominated for Governor on a rising vote, and three cheers were given for the nominee. The resolutions which were adopted unanimously call on the people to de clare their independence of false guides and regain the priceless rights be queathed to us by our patriotic sires j declare that an economical govern ment cau and shall be established ; de mand the immediate repeal of the re sumption act, and that the public lands be reserved for actual settlers ; oppose the letting out of convict la bor; demand that all persons shall have the right to deduct from the value of their estates the sum of the mort gage thereon, and said mortgages should be assessed to the persons to whom they are due. It Is further Resolved, That the liberties of this people Imperatively demand that the far-reaching and deadly hand of capi tal as it appears in the infamous moil opoly known as the Associated Press must be torn from the throat of public intelligence. The telegraph companies must be forced to sell the daily news upon equal terms to any paper. Adjourned. M. T. Reedy, of Wallacetown, Clear field county, was arrested on Thurs day, the 29th ult., by a U. S. Marshal, on a charge of taking a letter or pack age from the P. O. at rhillipsburg, bo fore tho same had been delivered to the person to whom it was directed, with a desire to obstruct the correspondence and pry into the business and secrets of another. Mr. B. was taken to Johnstown, and after a hearing was placed in $1,000 bonds to appear at the October term of U. S. Court for trial. The prisoner explained the trouble by stating that he had been instrumental in capturing some of the friends of the complainant who were engaged In counterfeiting, and that the prosecU' tion is a matter of revenge. The "bulls" und "bears'' iu the TI tusville oil exchange have tremendous encounters, In which the bears, as rule, carry oft the fruits of success. Notes' of News. The Episcopal House of Bishops met in New York Sept. 4. They unanimously deposed Bishop Mc Coskry from the ministry. Twenty-two tons of fine silver, amounting to $800,000, were shipped last week from New York from the United States assay offlee to the Philadelphia mint for tho coinage of silver dollars. Total amount of silver shipments to date from 24th of July, $2,100,000. Negroes In New Orleans believe the height of tho fever has been reached. Tneir faith Is founded on a prophecy. Last New Year's day a negro sorcerer in an incantltation said that a plague would come over the south this summer with terrible ef fect, killing whites and negroes alike. It would continue, he claimed, until tho number of degrees registered daily on the thermometer should be equalled by tho number of daily deaths. During the past few days it seems there has been a singular coin cidence between the death rate and the height of the thermometer, and the negroes are reported to be very ju bilant and confident that the crisis has been reached and that deaths will now decrease in number. At Rosendale, New York, two men named Cummings and Miller have a controversy for the possession of the quarries of the New York ce ment company. The difficulty cul mined In a fight between the contes ants and their men. The Hon. Isaac Becker, manager for Cummings, and his son were both shot and danger ously wounded. The Cummings party were finally driven away, after about thirty shots were fired, and the Miller party, numbering fifty persons, re main in possession. They are headed by two sons of Mr. Miller, president of the company, one of whom is charged with shooting young Becker. The Cummings party had prepared for the attack by laying a mine. Their battery failed to operate, or a great loss of life would have ensued. This con troversy grew out of the company leasing the quarry to Cummings and then attempting to regain possession. Several years have been spent in law suits. The Kentucky lotteries have got a 'favorable decision from the Court of Appeals to the effect that their grants cannot be repealed by the Legislature. A Mexican, under arrest for mur der, was taken from the Texas author ities by some of his countrymen who crossed the Rio Grande for that pur pose.

Employment for Ladies and Gen tlemen at Home. Our attention wm recently ftllraoted by an advertisement in another paper to the " American Housekeepers' " Scale and the extremely low prloe induced us to send for one to use in our kitchen. We find the soalo the most convenient and valuable household artiole we have! It is worth five times its cost, in testing grocers' packages, pulling up preserves, making cake, eto. W. II. Thompson A Co., No. 2" 5 Washington street, Boston, Mass., are llio manufacturers, and they have the most complimentary Testimonials of the Soale possible to be written. They have as yet no General Agent for this County ; and as the Scales are sold exclusively by canvass ers to families, we cheerfully recommend the article for the benefit of our numerous lady readers, and parties wanting honor able employment. We would say that the " Church Journal," N. Y.. "Christian Union." N. Y., " Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper," New York, " Church Union," N. Y.,Boston "Traveler" Herald" and "Post," and hundred of other papers, all speak in the highest praise of the Scale, its low price, and convenience to housekeepers. Weighs up to 24 pounds, and costs $1.50 prepaid or about one-half that of any other Platform Scale in the United States. Where is the man who wants the exclu sive control of our County, and thereby se cure a very profitable business?
