The lowering weather of the past
few days would seem to forteil a frost
about the full of the Juin moon. Of
course every one is anxious on this
point, for while Jack Frost is a wel
come visitor on the ides of December,
his presence In the month of roses is
very undesirable. An estimate of the
loss by a June frost is something no
man can make, although it cannot
help being very great.
A case somewhat peculiar was
tried recently in the Jefferson county
court. Mr. Geo. A. Gourlcy was as
sessor In Perry township last year,
and in giving the occupation of ex
Sheriff Mitchell, a gentleman nearly
seventy-five years of age, inserted the
word "loafer." The ex-Sheriff brought
action for damages and a jury re
turned a verdict of $100 fine aud costs
of prosecution, which will aggregate
nearly three huudred dollars. Mr.
Oourley protests his Intention of
wrong, but the case was a very clear
one, aud be has a heavy bill of ex
pense to pay. This case may be a
warning to other officials, and prevent
too free use of the. names of citizens

Mrs.Malone was taken with a par
aietiestroke two or three weeks before
her death, and never spoke a word
thereafter, although perfectly consci
ous all the time. A husband and five
small children are left to mourn the
loss of a good wife and an affectionate
mother. The funeral took place on
Monday 3l:-t.
A twel .e-vear old girl who is liv
ing with relatives ut East Coiienuuigh,
Cambria county, gave birth to u well
developed child a few days ago. It
appears that the young mother is mi
orphan, having lost her parents when
a mere babe. On the death of her
natural protectors she was taken
charge of by an uncle in Jefferson
county, with whom she lias lived al
most uninterruptedly ever since.
If her story is correct, litis uncle is
the father of bur child.

Con vciilioii. l or on the wise or un
wise action ofiliat hotly may hang the
happiness or misery of a great nation.
Of course there is one consolation after
all, if Wisdom fails to hold her own
in this convention's choice, the people
at the polls on that certain day in
November may teach these party man
agers a lesson that future conventions
Will not be slow to heed. It seems to til!
honest observer that the likes or dis
likes of Cameron, Conklin or any gfe-.it
intriguer should not for u moment
be considered in the choice of a candi
date for the exalted office of Chief
Magistrate. But that the voice of the
great masses should bo heard and tiie
mantle of ncmiualiou be placed on
the shoulders of one worthy of the
honor. We have no fear bin
that t he result will be satisfactory to
the party and the country, but the
whispers of discontent and sharp
practice by the ringleaders make one
wish t litre were u trifle more patriot
ism in the breasts of these great men
and a little less of seliUU aim. Tun

chronicle the Convention's action in

CURTIN AND VOCtIM FOR A SEAT IN
CONGRESS.
Washington, May 28 An amend
ment was offered to the Civil Appro
priation bill to-day to strike out the
amounts appropriated for contested
election cases, except $2,000 each to
Andrew G. Curtin and Seth II. Yo
cum. Mr. Keifer of Ohio, who made
I ho motion, fluted that the first
named had expended $15,001 in mak
ing the contest and the latter $13,000.
lie wanted the consideration of I ho
question to be postponed until Con
gress could get directly at the facts of
the matter. He said it was an insult
to those gentlemen to offer thciu only
2,000 each. The Committee on Elec
tions had recommended an appropri
ation of S,50t) each, and he himself
hail been in favor of appropriating
$10,(100. The amendment was adopted
as an amendment to Mr. Morse's
amendment, and then more than a
quarter of an hour was consumed
amid a great deal of noise and confus
ion in a discussion as to the manner
in which Mr. Morse's amendment
should be submitted. Points of order
were submitted in such profusion that
the Chair and the House seemed ut
terly unable, the former how to state
and the latter how to vote upon the
question. A vote was, however, taken
by tellers, the result of which was to
leave the paragraph in exactly the
state in which it .hud been before any
vote bad been taken in regard to it.
Mr. Keifer. though protesting that his
amendment bad once been adopted,
again submitted his motion to strike
out tli appropriations for Curtin and
Yocum.
This, the Chair stated, was carried,
through the confusion was so great
that it was almost impossible to know
what was being voted upon.
The largest well ever struck in
t lie Bradford regioii was reported on
