The Southern Ftates are just now very actively engaged in calling con ventions to amend their State Con stitutions. Those given them un der the reconstruction acta being Re publican in form, and srrjarantceing fijiial right. to all eilizens, do not suit the late rtbt-1 Democracy now controlling iuott of them, hence the general movement to create new ones ia all the Southern States where they have present political power. In a list of twenty-six counties in this State, in which there are Prohi bition candidates for county offices, there are but riv eratic majorities, which give Demo and twenty that majorities. How Certainly not be give does Kepul. ijiican that come? cause the Democratic party has nom inated Temperance men for office. Hut because Temperance men are be ing made use of to destroy the only political party that has ever shown any disposition to favor prohibitory legislation. The trick is transparent and no consistent and intelligent Re publican Temperance man can allow himself to be dectired thereby. Says the Greensburg Herald, whose editor is a well known and consistent temperance man: "Last vear a Prohibition State t'eket was placed in the field by the same influ ence that has placed one in tbe field this year, and it defeated General R. li. Ueath, a life long and consistent! temperance mun, on the Republican ticket, and elected a gentleman who drinks his whiskey, and whose influ encc in public and private is in favor of license, social tippling-, and drunk enness. We know General ueatn persona'!", and wc know also Gen. McCaLdless.:' Last year the Democrats carried North Carolina by a majority of 20, '.75, with decisive majorities in both branches of the Legislatare. Elated with their success, they set to work to devise ways and means to perpet uate their control of the State. The Legislature passed a bill providing for a convention to get rid of the be neficent constitution adopted at the close of the rebellion, and which is closely modeled after that of New York The election for delegates to the convention came oEf last week. The Republicans have a majority of about 10,000 on the popular vote, and but for the "gerry-mandering" of the State by the Democracy, vould have carried the convention. Oxe cl tLe thinest tricks now be ing played by the Democratic journ als of this Stale, is the attempt to make the people believe that they were benefitted bv the election of Democratic Sta;e officers last year. Thus, the assertion is iterated and reiterated that owing to the activity of the Democratic Auditor General Temple the taxes due the State have been promptly collected, and thus the large reduction of our debt during the year ($1,400,000) is attri butable to this Democratic official. Imagine the auditors of Somerset county claiming that they instead of the County Treasurer, received the taxes and paid the expenses of the county! How consumedly the peo ple would laugh at so bold a lie, and yet the Auditor General occupies the 6ame relative position toward the collection of the State taxes, and pay ment of the State debt, that our coun ty auditors do towards the collection of county taxes and tbe liquidation of the county's expenses. Isn't the Democratic party hard pushed for a little capital to trade on, when it will resort to such false pretences for ob taining credit? The late Treasury etatemcnt prov ing the majority of the Democratic journalists of this State to be legiti mate successors of Annanias, was, to use the expressive if not chaste lan guage of Chauncy F. Black, Esq., an "insinuating gutwinder," to such of them as were insisting that there was a defalcation in the State Treasury. The amount of twisting, and squirm ing, and crawling these unfortunates are compelled to undertake to escape from their uueuviable position, was never equalled by the slimiest eel that ever wriggled. The most absurd, however, of all these attempts to crawl iuto a hole and pull it in after him, is made by the editor of the N. Y. Hir'f. This immaculate moral preceptor, ia face of the fact that a large reduction of our State debt has been anuualh made for years past, actually perpetrates the follow ing exquisite absurdity: "The pn-at result is that in actual de spair the "lin"ani1 its chief have throwa up the ajxinize and under the pressure of public oinioa and the Tear ot penal re MHjnsil.ilitv have u'ouuUoDCvl their svsteni of distributive finance and actually pnid off a portion of the Stale debt, not a dollar of hicli. we rejioat. would have been paid but for tlie coining lV-mocratic conven tion." A poor excuse is said to be belter than none, but for originality of con ception breadth of lie, and unmatch ed transparency, commend us to this Tom Pepper. The Democratic journals of the State are complaining that tbe Re f .... . ... fourteen million.,the interest is paid promptly, every obligation of tbe Commonwealth is redeemed at matu rity, State bonds are above par, and cannot lie redeemed unless at a pre mium, ur State taxe3 are merely nominil, and yet it is complained tbe debt h being paid too fast Imagine a farmtr with plenty of money in his pocket refusing to pay the outstand ing"gale8" against his farm, and thus save the interest on them, on the plea that this would be paying oooncr than be was compelled to, and there fore it was paying his debts too fast! And yet this is precisely w hat the Democratic politicians are urging the people to d3, and they call it whe statesmanship. Thi Democrats are continually howling over the corruption of the Republican party and urging the peo ple to return tbern to power, so that they may restore honesty and purity to the administration of State and National affairs. Aa a smgle in stance of their honest administration of affairs in this State when they con trolled it, we refer the younger class of our readers the older ones will remember it to a report made in compliance with law, by Jos. Railey, State Treasurer, during tbe last year of Governor BiglerV administration, by which it appeared that there were four hundred and thirty-six official defaulters in this State, the total amount of their defalcations being $469,223 42. As to bow honestly Democratic officials are at present administering public trusts where they have power, may be judged by the following summary of very re cent official transactions, taken from an exchange: " Two Democratic Councilmen of Baltimore expelled for accepting bribes. Eight Democratic officials in Cincinnati indited for fraud and corruption. The Demo cratic Treasurer of Ohio a defaulter to the amount of f C50.000. The Democratic Treasurer of Georgia "short" in his accounts upwt rds of half a million dollars. Thirtv-eight Democratic members of tbe New York Assembly published by the JlWii as openly and notoriously cor rupt, accepting bribes as low as $50. The Democratic House of Connecti cut refusing to inquire into ppeciGc charges of bribery of members of its body. Eight Democratic county Treasurcrs in Ohio proved to be de faulters in large amounts. Democrat ic Canal Superintendent M'Rae in dicted in New York for corruption in office. And Tweed in jail, unable to obtain bailor the six millions which he has stolen from tbe treasury of tbe thief ruled city. Is this not an in structive page of Democratic history? PrnnaylTBnlai State Flnanrra. For gome time past certain Demo cratic and Liberal journals in New lork city and elsewhere, have been making a desperate effort to induce people to believe that the fetate Treasury of Pennsylvania was in a very bad way : that there was a large deficit in it ; and that the finances of the Commonwealth were generally mismanaged. As the object of this was evidently partizan and intended to tret the funds into the hands of some political tool of the New York 6tock gamblers and others who have exhausted the resouces of tbe I am manv Ring in the citv and State Treasuries of New-York, do one in Pennsylvania has paid much attcn tion to tbe subject. But the clamor being kept up in order to force notice br sheer reiteration, the Board of Commissioners of the Sinking Fund have met at Harrisburg, the Demo cratic State Auditor-General Temple being present as a member. Treas urer Macket presented a full state ment of tbe Treasury balance with the places of deposit accompanied by vouchers: the Treasury accounts were examined and verified, and the Board ordered the whole of the out standing due and overdue bonds of tbe State to be called in and paid oil, amounting to over naif a million dol lars, making a reduction of $1,400,000 within a year. the balance in tbe treasury is large enough to redeem half a million more of the debt if the bonds were available, but as they are selling at a high premium and the State Treasur er has no autboritv to purchase them in that way, nothing more can be done at present. The whole amount of the debt is a little over $22,000,000, but deducting the bonds in tbe Sink ing fund tbe net debt is only a little over fourteen millions, to which point it has been reduced by a policy of re trenchment, economy and close man agemcnt from an aggregate of $42,000,000. The revenues of the Commonwealth are d?iived from sources that render tbe burthen light. Tbe State levies no tax on real estate, and could well afford to abolish tbe State tax on personal estate. Tbe more we reduce the principal of tbe debt the less interest we have to pay annually, and consequently tbe more the balance in the Treasury increas. es. This balance appenrs to trouble the New-lork financiers very much They never see any balance in the Treasuries of New-York citv or State, for tbe good reason that there is nev er enough money to meet accruing liabilities. Consequently they think there must be something wrong at Harrisburg, though probably it would all be right if tbe balance could be de posited in Wall street, New-York citT. In the State Treasury this balance is a perpetual answer to tbe slanders upon this Commonwealth in connec tion with ber debt and interest. Tbe attempt of a set of political specula tors to renew the injury to our state r;an oy riving circulation to a re- part of a deficiency in the Treasury, is very effectually answered by the latest more of the managers of the State finances, to call in and pay off tie entire body or tbe due and over due debt As tbe holders of those bonds have never really wanted their money eo long as tber were sure of getting their interest regularly, most of them will bestow left-handed bless ings on tbe New-York agitators. Tbe stated purpose of the whole agita tion is to influence the Democratic nomination for State Treasurer, which has yet to be made. The Democrats of Pennsylvania mostly are shrewd enough to manage their own affairs. Bat tbe New-York journalists dispute it, and actually (we do not know whether our readers will believe it true era joke) they have s-leetel a candidate of their own for Treasurer of Pennsylvania, and give ic out that I lie 13 f. It' I luau iij v. K,atcg 0fwuom tUe home party seems he is better than anv of tbe candi to be in favor. Such an anomaly a3 this ia strange in American politics. Rut Wall street wants the custody of that balance, and therefore courtesy must stand aside. Getmanloxrn Tel r'jrnp. - OI'B XTW YORK 1.ETTEB- New Yokk, August 9, 1375. THE rOLlCE INVESTIGATION. The committee investigating the police of this city are unearthing seme very odorous matter. It has been sho wn that captains of precincts ha ve for years accepted from the proprie tors of gambling-houses and bouses of ill-fame regular sums of money per week, the consideration being that those houses should not be mo lested. And when a new policeman, or an nonest one, reported luesc houses as proper subjects for pulling tbe captain wtull run his pencil through their names and rebuke the subordinate for officiousness. Of course this speculation could not be long confined to captains. The po licemen on the beats very soon went into the business on their own ac count, and made it pay handsomely, They charged the girls $5 per week for nrotection airainst arrest, lue same bargains were made with noto rious thieves, fnl it has gone so tar that it is almost impossible to either bring one of them to justice or recover property tu at nas Deen Bioien. iou may imagine the condition of the city when the police, its guardians, are in league with the thieves, swindlers, and prostitutes. A little occurrence that came to my knowl edge last night illustrates the work inercfit. A citizen was coming out of an up-town street at about nine o'clock, when be was attacked by two foot-pads, one of whom snatched his wa'.ch. He seized the thief and yelled to a policeman who stood with- la twenty feet, calmly looking on What did the policeman do? Arrest the thief and restore to the man his watch ? Nothing of the sort. He clubbed the citizen over tbe head till he let go his hold upon the thief, lel- linar him. with an oath, that ho bad made disturbance enough around there. The thief ran away with his booty and the policeman disappeared. Of course the citizen will complain, but nothinfr will come of it. It was raining very hard at the time, and ihe policeman hid on his waterproof Ilavelock and coat, so identification will Le impossible. The condition of affairs in the city is anything but pleasant. I do not know which class is tbe most feared, the outlaw s or the pelice. One thing is evident, eo city like New York, with its vast irrespon sible foreign population, is fit to govern itself. The decent citizens are largely in tbe minority, and as a consequence the lawless element governs it What the remedy is, heaven only knows. TRAMPS. The hard times effects everything, even tne proiession or begging. When the times were flush it was easier to give a beggar ten cents or a quarter than it was to be twice: importuned. Notv it is different Men have not got the ten cents or the quarter to spare, and the beggar, unless it be a certain case of absolute. honest distress, is turned off at short metre. Now, your regular beggar will never work, no matter how des perate bis case may be; and conse quently, when the times got so hard here in tbe city, he departed for pas tures fresh. They took their worth less carcasses to tbe country, and then an idea seemed to strike them simultaneously. A farm-house, with nobody at borne but a womaaortwo, afforded them scope for something besides begging. And so three of them together march into a farm house and ask for food. If the man of tbe bouse happens to be in they get food and go away, but if they find the house unprotected they change their tone. The Lc.gar's whine is dropped, and in its stead is the demand of the sturdy tramp, who appears in his true character of thief. Connecticut and New Jersey are fairly swarming with these pests. Indeed, so numerous aro they that the authorities in some sections in Connecticut have appointed special police to look after them. There is but one way with these fellows. Every beggar or mendicant, genuine or otherwise, should be at once arres ted and put at labor in a workhouse. If they are legitimate that is unable to make a living, they have a living furnished, for which they contribute as much labor as they "can do. If they are frauds, as ninety -nine in a hundred are, they will be forced to work, steal, or starve. If they do tbe first they will be entitled to live; if tbe second, tbey come within the grasp of the law; and if they choose the third, the world is happily rid of tbern. Every State in the Union ought to make mendicancy a crime, and aught to deal with beggars as criminals of the worst class. "One in cident occur-d to me yesterday that shows the material of which" these people are made. 'A tall six-footer, stooped ad tottering, approached me, and in a voice so low as tot to be fully understood, mumbled some thing of which only "tin cints" and ate nothin' for forty eight hours" was distinct. "Speak up," paid I, "I can't understand you." "I can't shpake loud, I'm too wake." "Get out, you thief," was my response, for I had seen the fellow before. "To hell wid yez!" was the response of this starved, weak man, in a stentorian voice; and straightning himself up, he looked what he was, a brawny, muscular ruffian, who, in tbe night and in the dark, would be an exceed ingly uncomfortable msn to meet That man is a beggar to-day, a foot pad to-morrow, and a burglar the next. By this time, probably, be is frightening the soul3 of women and children fifty miles out of the city. TILTON-BEECHER. There is a dif agreeable prospect that this mess of nastiness, which every one hoped was closed forever, is to be opened once more. " Tilton has filed an application for a new trial and asserts that he has new evi dence to introduce, that will double Mr. Beecher up in -just ten days. What tbe new evidence is no one knows: but Theodore nnd his law yers look and act very conn lent Ia the meantime Tilton is at his house in Brooklyn, writing a new novel and ar.-anging bis lecture for the win ter, which will be a very extensive one. He has a hundred more appli cations than he can fill, and they are pouring in upon him daily. Beecher' is up in the White Mountains taking his vacation. His church made his departure the occasion of an ovation, ana a deputation or bis deacons went with him in a special car. I should suppose that Beecher should tire of all this fuss. For over a year now he has been in the hands of his church, who have watched over him, and called on him, and gone with him, and stayed by him, and so surround ed him "that he has not bad a minuie to himself. They were at his house before he arose in the morning, and the last earthly object his eyes rested on as he went to sleep was a deacon in the act of hoping that the terrible Tilton and the mendacious Moultin might be confounded, and "our be loved pastor" be vindicated. And now that the trial is over, they are going to bore him for six months with their rejoicing over his victory. Were I Beecher, I should pass my summer in Alaska, Tit BIO FAILURE of Duncan, Sherman & Co. doesn't hok as we'l as it did. When the creditors came to look for the real estate held by the firm, it was discov ered that only a few days before tbe failure it had been all transferred to the fathers and relatives of tbe part ners. It wa3 gravely stated by these gentlemen that tbe sale had been made years ago, but that the deeds hart narnr hpen nut UDOO record, to strene-then the credit of tbe firm That ia tn ear. Duncan. Sherman & Cn were jrettintr credit on property that i;l not belonir to them. This may be all riirht. but it looks, to nlaiii man. very -hkB a swindle. The failure did not produce a panic nor did it make any perceptible im- nression on the city. Nothing could I think. The citv" is so dull that I ean't imar-ine anvthin? that could - - - - - c -J make it duller. BUSINESS is worse than it has ever been known in the history of tbe city. There is absolutely nothing doing, and there is no prospect of improvement There was hopes of a little fall trade, but the floods in the West have cut those hopes down to nothing, and every body is bracinsr for the worst. 1 os- sibly the reports may be exaggerated and tbe damage be less man is sup p 'sed, but the outlook is bad at best. THE WEATHER HERE i terrific. It is hot, wet, muggy, nasty, uncomfortable, and altogether fhnroti !lil v disacrecabie. un. ior a Oh, for change of some kind! PlETRO. Tne Slacnra Fall Horror.

Arrived at tbe cave, they were advised by Mr. Wright, the lesjee of the cave, to take a guide, but as they were all thorougnly fa miliar w ith the place, and bad made repeated trips through the cave in former years, they declined the proffered assistance, and started down the Biddle Stairway. They followed the usual pathway until they reached the extreme eastern end of the railing, when they clamber ed out upon the rocks immediately in front of the cave. llliam 1 bilpott and his wife seated themselves on the rocks, while the other four ven tured out still further, and descended to a stream which flows down over tbe rocks, in front and a little to the right of the cave. Here they re mained for some time, amusingthem- folves in the water, which brawls over the rocks and rushes through the crevices with great force. Finally Miss Lottie went still further down the river and entered an eddy, which, however, was par tially protected by encircling boul ders. Here she played in the water, which at this place affords an excel lent current bath, and was soon re joined by her three other friends. Mr. Parsons entered the water with her, and while he was getting a foot hold, that be might guard against any possible accident, she slipped. He had hold of her hand, and, as she fell he caught her, and together they were swept into the current, which bore them down about thirty feet toward the river. Those on the banks report that Miss Lottie was next seen standing up iu the water and leaning against a large rock. Tbey were now in a powerful cur reut, and both seemed to be making endeavors to save ons another. Her position was the more precarious, since the slightest movement either way would expose her to tbe full fury of tbe water, and once fairly in the power of the current all hope of es cape would be ended. Mr. Parsons, from his position, could have easily sav ed himself, but thinking that he could rescue her, he seized her and tried to reach tbe rock above them. Though he battled w ith the current with that strength which despair alone can give, they both were swept frotr their vantage ground on the rock and whirled into the maddening flood below. They were soon to dis appear below the surface. By this time they had been carried well out into the river, and to their agonized friends on shore they ap peared to be standieg on rocks, about eight reds or so from the edge of the river. To one unacquainted with the great depth of the river and the tremendous force of tbe under cur rent, it seemed that they bad at last found a place of safety, and might yet be rescued. But the treacherous turrent was bearing tbern rapidly down the river to the death w hich was now inevitable. Parsons made heroic endeavors to reach the shore with her for w hom he had rUked his life. He was a strong swimmer, and was seen floating on his back, supporting her, and struggling agaimt the current All his efforts were of no avail; tbe fatal current separated them, and Miss Louie, deprived of the Btrong protecting arm that had before upheld her, disappeared with hands raised despairingly above her head. Mr. Parsons inu.-t have seen her go under the water, but be Kill made brave efforts to preserve his own life. From the shore he was seen struggling in an aimless way to keep his head above the water. A thick cloud of spray in ervened for a moment between the drowning man and the friends who were powerless to lend him aid, and when it disap peared, Parsons was gone, and the cruel river swept on as though this tragedy bad nut been. The spct where thev were Iatt seea is about one-third the distance from the Cave to the American Falls. . Mi Philpott was twenty-five years of age, and the only daughter of Mr. William Philpott, an old and highly respected resident of tbe Falls. Ethel bert Parsons, who lost his own 'ifc in tbe heroic attempt to save that of his companion, was twenty-nine years of age, and tbe son of Horatio A. Parsons, Esq. of La Salle. At last accounts the bodies had not been recovered A Northern paper offers to take huckleberries on subscription. Eatraordlaarjr Jaaaplaar Match. jumping match announced to tula ulaoa iiort&'pnn I tirt wlol.ratr.fi jumpers James W. Freeman, of Chi cago, and Robert H. Ryan, of Nevy York, was decided at Hoboken, New Jersey, on Wednesday. A large crowd assembled to witness the affair. Tbe contest was looked forward to with eager interest, and there were large sums of money invested on the result Last Monday tbe men jump ed three standing jumps for $200 a side, when Ryan was victorious, jumping 36 feet 4 J inches. Freeman immediately challenged Ryan to another contest, and on Monday night a match was made. Ihe con ditions of the contest yesterday were for the men to jump one single jump, each to cavil six trials, for ?250 a side; spring shoes barred. As soon as the two contestants came on the ground the betting commenced, Ryan's friends betting $100 to $30 that he would win. Mesara. Creigh lou and Mitchell were tbe judges, and Walter M. Maxwell was chosen referee. The ground being prepared and the arrangements for tbe contest settled, the match began. Freeman woo the toss and Ryan had to jump firs. Tbe crowd formed in two lines and crowded upon the contestants, not seeming to be the least afraid of being struck by the dumb-bells of the jumpers. As Ryan stepped forward to the mark to make the first jump, $100 to $70 was offered that he would win, and tbe odds were readily taken by Freeman's friends. On the Erst trial Ryan grasped his fifteen-pound dumb-bells and covered 12 feet 2 inches. Freeman, with a graceful evolution, followed and landed over Ryan's mark' jumping 12 feet 2 inches. On the next trial Ryan jumped 12 feet 4 inches, but when tbe judges announced that freeman's jump was 12 feet inches, be was loudly cheered. All eyes were in tently watching Ryan wbeh be toed the mark f jr the third trial: $100 to $G0 was offered that Freeman would win, and there was a change in tbe betting. Ryanjumped 12 feet 8j inches, amid the wildest cheering; but when Freewan followed and landed again over Ryan's mark, the wildest excitement prevailed among the crowd. I reman s jump was 12 feet Cj inches. At Chicago in July, 1S70, Bob W ay won tbe champion ship of America, by covering 12 feet Si iuches. This jump was the best on record up to June, 1870, when Ned Searles jumped 13 feet 1 inch, in a match with Bob Way, at Bing- bamton, for the championship cf America; and the fact of Freeman covering the above distance created a furore. On tbe fourth trial Rvan jumped 12 feet Hunches, amid tre mendous cheering. Freeman follow ed and the rain began to comedown. lie changed bis dumb-bells, using his niteen . instead ot his twentv- pound bells. Alter making one or two evolutions be covered the extra ordinary distance of 13 feet, i inch, and without making any great effort. Freeman wa3 now made the favorite at $100 to $00, and the odds were :eadily taken. Oa the fifth trial Ryan covered a greater distance than freeman, jumping 13 feet linch. Freeman followed and jumped- over Ryan's mark, but slipped down, and the jump was scored against him. Then followed the final trial. Bettine was stiil $100 to $60 on Freeman. Ryan kept quite cool, and had a little the best of the contest, for Freeman had to jump first, not haying beaten Ryan's last effort Intense excite ment prevailed amone the crowd when Freeman stood on the mark to make the final jump. lie did not keep the crowd long in suspense, and cleverly jumped 13 feet 2 inches. Ryan's friends were now jubilant, and offered $100 to $50 that their man would win. He at once picked on his bells and jumped 13 feet 31 inches, beating Freeman's wonderful performance one-half inch, and win ning tbe match, freeman's friends were very much surprised at their man's defeat Freeman belonrrs out West, and Was brought East express ly to defeat the best jumper in this section. He has failed having bten defeated in two contests. Freeman's friends thought, since the death of Ed Searles, of Sing Sing, X. Y.: Bob Way, of Olean, and Chas. A. Loomis, that man that could cover 13 feet 2i inches could beat anybody in Ameri ca, but tbey were mistaken. Ryan is a wonderful jumper, and bisfriends claim that be can. beat tbe best jump on record made by Searles, at Vtica, 16 ieet o inches. The River Mill Rialaff. Memphis, August 12.

The engine and tender made a sheer plunge of twenty feet into the creek below. The forward exrress car was hurled across tbe creek and utterly demolished. Tbe second ex press car and forward day coach were driven beyond the trestle and turned partly over. Tbe second day coach and forward sleeper were driven across the bridge, running on the ties, and remaining. Two sleepers did not leave the rails. The engi neer and fireman went down with the engine, but were only slightly bruised. No one else was injured.
