LJ The Somerset Herald. WCDESDAT . May S3, 1STT. Theri will be a meeting o( the Republican Sute Committee at the Lochiel Ilouse, Ilamsburg, on Tues day, 29th Instant, at 2 o'cJock r. m., to'Cx the time and place for tLe next Republican State Contention, and the transaction of other ImporUot business. IIe5t M. Hctt, Chairman. A. Wilsox oeris, Sec Ova exchangea say that Sewing Machines bare already fallen thirty dollars in price, owing to the expira tion of different patents on portions of them. ' Tn 'ew Orleans Time says "If the President expects bis party will erer carry Louisiana be might as well relinquish this roeeateopinion at once." This shows a Democratic determination to overcome the pres ent Republican majority in the Sute at all baiards. With a Democratic Governor they may do it, possibly, bat with a Republican Governor, ihm wonld hare been some show for the Republicans. Tm Mobilo (Ali.) RegiMer thus speaks : "The Southern people de cline to accept the proposition to ally themselves with that portion or the Republican Tarty which sustains the President's Southern policy. They . stand ready to co-operate with all who will defend that policy, but as to forming a portion ol a Presidential party 'and surrendering the organi zation of the House to the enemies of Democracy, we respectfully beg leave to decline the proposition." Pibixo the month of April, there was exported from the United Slates to Earope 8,410,829 pounds of fresh beef and 169,043 pounds of mutton. The trade shows no signs of falling off on account of the hot weather. A diminution in the amount of the shipments of fresh meat during the hot months is to be expected as a matter of course, if for no other reason than that the demand always falls off largely in the summer sea son. The St. Louis Democrat does not believe that the President's policy will divide the Democratic party at the South, and 'adds: "The only thing that will ever divide the Demo cratic party at the South will be the inability to make 50,000 offices go round among 5,000,000 patriots, and the party may confidently be expect ed to live as long as it has any spoils to live for, and remain united as long as unity will help it in its great object The legislative election in Fair Geld county, South Carolina, is in teresting. It is one of the strongest Republican counties in the State, and sent two Republican membenrto the present Legislature. They bad the manliness to refuse to beg pardon of the Ilamptonites for their support of the Chamberlain Government, and were expelled. A new election be ing called in the county, Democratic members were returned by large majorities. The Republicans stayed away from the polls. While the President is trying to conciliate the Southern Democrats and inaugurate an "era of good feel ing," they are intrenching themselves in power, and rewarding in every available way the men who were the most conspicuous in their hostility to the Union. Thus in Virginia where they are preparing for the next eieciion for Governor, the prominent Democratic candidates are General FitzIIugh Lee, General W. Mahone, General W. B. Tallafero, and two or three Colonels, all of whom served with eclat in the Confederate army. While the President's Southern policy is tbe chief subject of anxiety and commett throughout tbe country, there are outgivings of a new policy in other matters of moment, of much more vital importance to the interest of labor, and in greater di vergence, if possible, with the views of the Republican party in this State. At the late "Chamber of Com merce' dinner in New York, at which tbe President and several members of his cabinet were present, Messrs. Evarts and Schura, tbe chief spokes men of tbe administration, in un mistakable terms advocated the abandonment of the protective prin ciple in our tariff, and of the restric. tion against tbe introduction of foreign built ships into our merchant marine. These have both been favorite ob jects of the Free-trade Democracy, are both mattera of the greatest moment to the home industries of Pennsylvania and the New England States, and have been standing "principles" of tbe Southern Democ racy i or many years past A more cruel blow could not be stricken at tbe laboring, manufacturing, and pro ducing interests of this State, thai the repeal of the protective principles of our present tariff, and yet here are tbe Secretary of Sute, and the Sec retary of tbe Interior, in tbe presence or tne President, and with bis tacit consent at least, advocating ia the city of New York, whose commercial interests are controlled by foreign im porters and capitalists,their pet theory, Adopted by tbe Democratic party, of a tariff for revenue aimply, thus forcing our manufacturers to compete with the saieerabiy paiai labor of Europe, and depriving oar farmers of the advantage of a home market for their products. Is view of these and atfcer late events, it is not to be wondered at, that our Republicans are inquiring, one of the other, wherein doea this administration differ from that which we would have had if Samuel J. Tilden had been elected t Sammt J. Tildes, still has the sulks. On Monday of last week, the Chamber of Commerce of New York gave its annual dinner, at which President naves, and Secretaries Evarts and Scburz and General Sherman were present, with a dis tinguished company of the leading business men of thst city. "It was a purely social affair, prominent men of both political parties joining in it Ex-Governor Tilden, and the Democratic State officials sulkily declined invitations, because of the presence of the President General Hancock, Mayor Ely, and other not ed Democrats accepted invitations and were present PsEViors to embarking for Europe on Thursday last, General Grant spent several days in Philadelphia, where he received marked attention as the guest of the city. Grest crowds of people of all classes called noon him to par their respects and wish him a prosperous voyage and safe return. The bitter political ani mosities of the past appeared to be forgotten, and as usual, now that he is no longer in power, his fierc:t Democratic opponents, vied with bis friends in showering courtesies upon him. The next generation will do fuller justice to the men and the great services he rendered the Nation, than will the present, with its petty political jealousies and disappoint ments still fresh upon it Jidge W. W. Chiholm and his heroic daughter have both died of the wounds received at the hands of the Democratic ruffians of Kemper county, Miss. We publish a full account of the brutal attack, in another part of this psper. There is no excuse, no palliation fo' this most infamous mur der of almost an entire family for political purposes alone. Tbe lives of a mere boy and a heroic girl were taken by "chivalric Southern Demo crats" while attemptiug to shield a beloved father from their weapons. So shameless, so cowardly a murder has no parallel in history, and is the crowning infamy of Southern Dem ocracy. That it will be avenged by tbe authorities of tbe State, there is not tbe slightest probabilty. We publish elsewhere a copy of a letter received in Washington by a friend of Miss Chisolm, the brave girl who has died from the wounds re ceived in the heroic defense of her father from the Mississippi Democrat ic mob. The letter which we publish was written at tbe bedside of the dying girl, at her dictation, and adds an additional thrill of horror to the crime that must shock humanity wherever read. Tbe Chicago Inter-Ocean says: Governor Stone, of Mississippi, wentjto DeKalb to investigate the Kemper county tragedy, and on his return, to Jackson is reported to hare said : "We can't afford to stir tbe matter up any further; it must be permitted to die out" This is in famous, but what are we going to do about it? The business of shipping fresh beef to Europe is steadily on the increase. Tbe last report from the Treasury Department showed that the Febru ary shipments were tbe largest re ported up to the date of tbe state ment Tbe aggregate tbat month was 3,605,610 pounds. On Saturday the 12 inst, the shipments were upwards of a million pounds, and, as they have been heavy throughout tbe month, the inference is fair that tbe aggregate will largely exceed tbat of February. A correspondent writing from London esys the effect of thes shipments has been felt much less in tbe London market that jis generally supposed. Tbe reason is that it is in great deniard, is bought up as soon as exposed, and that no small part of. tie shipments Gnd a sale elsewhere. Last autumn, American beef shops were opened in Glasgow, and tbe price in that city has fallen four cents a pound. London capital is going into this business, however, and the result, it is expected, will soon be seen in the reduced prices. lireChtMrem BarmceJ Stoat k. Bisc.hamtom, X. Y., May 16.

Van Buren's dancing attendance at Court was the subject of much ridicule in tbis coun try, but we do not apprehend that the plain, bluntex-President will sub ject himself to like criticism. He will indulge in no set speeches ex pressive of adulation. He will main tain tbe dignity of an American citi zen who has just retired from the most exalted position within the gift of his countrymen. THE PANG EE OF CONCESSION TO THE ENEMY. No one who takes a survey of the two great political parties of this country can fail to see tbat in tbe near future the truth of the old prov erb will be illustrated "that politics makes strange bed-fellows." On tbe one side Democrats working like beavers to secure as many favors as possible from the Hayes administra tion, with no purpose whatever of giving up a title of their doctrine in consideration for concessions. On the other protest after protest is made by the Republicans against any aban donment of the platform npon which the party was organized, the war of tbe rebellion fought to a successful termination, and tbe administration of the Government carried on since treason was crnsbed. Tbe experi ment of inviting those who were con spicuous in renouncing allegiance to tbe Government into the councils of the President is fraught with danger. It is not to be wondered that the loyal party of tbe Nation is apprebcnsiTeof fatal results. ARLINGTON ESTATE. Tbe visit on tbe .".0th inst of thous ands to the Arlington Cemetery, to bedeck the graves of the dead who fell in bloody strife for tbe national existence, will bring to mind the cir cumstances under which the Gov ernment became possessed of tbe es tate. It was tbe residence af Gen. Lee before the war. 1 1 was the prop erty of Mrs. Lee, having been be queathed to ber by Geo. W. Custis. Tbe Cemetery was located upon it Ab whatever interest Gen. Lee bad ia tbe estate would revert to Mrs. Lee at tbe Gen's, death, it was sold under the Ux law of 18G2, the Gov ernment becoming tbe purchaser. This is tbe title under which the United States now holds it Several attempts bare been mad a by the heirs of Mrs. Lee to regain posses sion.Tbe infamous proposition has been made by some to remore the bones of our soldiers. Tbis sugges tion raised such a storm of indigna tion that we do not hear of iu repe tition. At some future day it may be that tbe heirs will receive some pecuniary compensation. ANTICIPATED , CONSISTENCY IN AP POINTMENTS. There is the authority of a South ern Republican U. S. Senator for the statement tbat tbe President, after having given tbe subject a second consideration, has abandoned tbe idea of appointing . Democrata to office, with the view of strengthen ing bis boutbern policy, . and will now appoint only Republicans in the South. Every honest Republican jn tbe country, will say. "amen' to tbis latter determination, and will hopefully look for tbe application of tbe rule. It is but air and in ac cordance with a ' prudent regard for tbe future of the party which elected Mr. litres to the Presidency. The Republican party will . be re joiced to be informed, and nntU con vinced otherwise by official ata w!JJ bfiikreibaLSecretary Srerman in tends in bis department to appoint none other tbso oet and ont Repub licans "who have bean dyed in tb wool." He wbo is not blind to tbe teachings of experience and common sense will admit that the macinery of tbe Government must be operated by iboc? who placed, iu administration in Republican Lands, if the benefi cent reaulu of Aba Resublan ascen dency are, to realized. 4ny other course is to yield all for which we as a party have contended.

The Trustees engaged bim some time sgo, but became dis satisfied with him and gave him no tice to quit. He refused to go, and the Trustees gave bim notice tbat be would be excluded from the pulpit. Issue was therefore joined, and both sides were determined to have tbe upper hand. On the succeeding Sunday Mr. Wright preached to a congregation of curiosity-seekers having obtained an entrance to tbe cburcb several boars before tbe Trustees put in an appearance. On tbe next Sunday, however, the Trus tees were masters of the situation! The night previous word was sent aroucd tbat Rev. Mr. Wright and his friends would break down tne doors of tbe church if refused admit tance. Tbe trustees and tbeir friends wished it to be understood tbat some beads might be broken if force was attempted. A large crowd collected early in tbe morning, and were well pleased with tbe subsequent perform ance. ben Mr. VVneht and uis friends went up the steps to force tbe door 8, tbe Trustees and tbeir body guard pulled tbem down.

Last Sunday there was a very stormy time at the church, and the village was excited all day over the difficulty.

THE hewing machine drop. Tbe most enteresting thing tbat has happened for many yearn, is the drop in sewing machines. Tbe busi ness has been controlled for years by a ring organized by two or three ot the largest companies, who io the early years of the business succt-ed-ed in getting control of the points without which no machine can be made. These companies compelled all the others to pay royalties, and really kept a great many out of the field by refusing to license tbem at all. Last Tuesday all these patents expired, and now the trade in sewing machines is free and unincumbered That the burden imposed by this ring may be understood, I may Bay tbat one company has paid in the last ten years nearly a million of dollars. But tbe great trouble with tbe busi ness has been tbe credit system and the enormous expense of selling. The commission paid to agents mount up terribly, and then most of the ma chines bave been sold on two years credit, on what are called leases, tbe company owning tbe machine till it is paid for. There was tbe loss of in terest on tbe vast capital tbis system necessitated, and there was tbe enor mous expense of detectives, collectors and processes to recover, all of which made tne business ot selling a ma chine, the first cost of which was per haps for $70, not very proGuble. All this changes. The Weed com pany reduced the price of machines nearly a half, the day tbe patents ex pired, and all the other companies wbo make machines competing with it, were forced to follow suit They intend as far as practicable to bring the business down to a cash basis, and tbe peoplo who can pay will have the benefit of tbe reduction ; inasmuch as under tbe old system a woman wbo couldn't get credit for a loaf of bread could get possession of a $70 sewing machine, tbis change of base trill work to tbe disadvantage of tbe poor, but t fee really paying peopla will be advantaged by it. MACY. One of the richest merchants in the city was R. II. Macy, who died a few weeks ago. Mr. Macy made a will, and to the astonishment of bis friends, be left bis only son an income of only $1,000 a year, and gave as a reason for it tbat tbe young man was hopelessly depraved and to tally unfit to be trusted with property. As it happens to be entirely true, it is a striking commentary on tbe useless ness of human calculations. Macy's ambition was to have bis son a gen tleman, and to have him spend the vast estate he was gathering like one. Accordingly he was all his life furn ished with all tbe money be could spend, and he went through the usu al routine of a fast young New York er's life. . He bad high company, drank expensive wines, drove fast horses, etc., all of which pleased tbe old gentleman weil enough till he woke one day to tbe bitter knowledge tbat bis boy had contracted habits wbicb he could not throw off, and which made a blackguard of bim in stead of a gentleman. He made tbe old man's life nnbappy by bis low as sociations ; and be bad tbe bitterness of seeing tbe boy wbo bad been his pride, degenerate into a debauchee, who could not hold the respect of any one, and who was the laughing stock of his acquaintances, and tbe disgrace of bis family. Now for tbe moral. Tbe immense business of tbe Macy establishment will hereafter be controlled by a man wbo entered tbe store a friendless boy, and who work ed his way up slowly but surely, and wbo, ten years ago, would nave been glad to clean his employer's son's boots. This is only one case in thousands, though few make known tbe delinquencies of their children as did Macy. Tbe average young man of rich parents in tbis city is not a reliable being. THE dog snow. The prettiest show of the last six teen months, not excepting the big Centennial, and one of tbe most com pletely carried out is tbe dog show udder tbe auspices of the Westmin ster Kennel Club, which is composed of sporting gentlemen fond of fine dorjs who wish to awaken interest in improving their breeds. About fif teen bundled entries of handsome dogs of almost every degree, from tbe great St Bernard and bibenan watcb-dogs to toy terriers makes a collection as interesting as it is possi ble to name, to anyone baring a com mon liking for tbe noblest kind of brnte, hardly excepting tbe hone. Tbe Rev. Mr. M'Donna, tbe celebrat ed English authority on dogs, kindly crossed the ocean to attend the show, and brought dogs with him of tbe highest breeding known in tbe world. O'ber English lovers of dogs sent tbeir pets, and noble animals they were though not handsomer to the uneducated eye, and not more intelli gent looking than many not valued so highly, belonging to American owners. " Contrary to tbe general idea, the St Bernards of pore breed are not black and white, but red, and fawn and yellow, with not a single black bair among tbem. The larger part of entries we-e of sporting dogs, some of which were sent from Michi gan, Missouri and Virginia. The dark Irish setters, and field spaniel were tbe handsomest exhibited. Tbe pet toy dogs, though costly were tbe ugliest of tbeir race. Tbere were pugs, wbicb nearly drew a scream of disgust at tbeir horrid ugliness, ter riers, bred in and in till tbere is noth ing of them but enough black coat to shiver with, and greyhounds tbat looked like skinned chickens, blue and starved. Tbe pets lay on satin cush ions and had lace on their collars ; but ne honest Newfoundland or Spaniel, with most of my readers would outwtigb io interest tbe whole weakly, expensive set, representing though they did a value of thousands of dollars. " There were a very large number of these monstrosities valued a thousand dollars each, and for which tbat price is actually asked and obtained ; and it does seem as though tbe uglier and more frightful tbe beast, tbe more money a fashion able woman is willing to give for it. The show was instructive as well as pleasant Tbere'were dogs trained to a degree of intelligence that very many human do not possess, apd tbe usefulness of that animal was demonstrated in very many ways. Tbe proceeds of the exhibition goes to tbe founding ot a bospiul for dis abled dogs, under the charge b Mr. Bergh. Curious that dogs ' should have a hospital', when so many hu mans are unsheltered. ' ' pSHIONS. ( Taste in the smalj accessories of the toijet js ipore pufijraVejf year by year among our country tjrbmea. Ele gant silk stockings, delicate,, fanciful handkerchiefs and neckties,, to say nothing of tbe extravagances ander the name of lingerie, take a large share of fashionable women's spend- ing money. Of course those who bave lees will not be satisfied without at least approaching tbe luxuries of others above tbem. Embroidered silk stockings are hardly called for so much as tbe lisle thread, in shades to match those of the dress, light blue, rose color, lilac and violet, the same being repeated in stockings for children. Blocked stockings are no longer in first taste. Handkerchiefs in lawn with Gne, tbin silk borders almost as sheer, in rose, sky blue an I pale violet are pretty, cheap add re refined looking. Smyrna lace has tbe same run tbat Cluny did ten years ago, and is seen everywhere, from the inner garment of a lady to the parasol, and tbe collar about her neck. Bat it is in no way fit for the liner uses of the toilet, and should be con fined to useful underclothing, and in finer qualities to trimming linen lawns, on which it is very well plac ed. The extravagance with which children are now dressed is startling. Tbe writer saw led into a large store tbe other day a boy of five years, wearing an overdress of light blue velvet, bordered completely with tbe expensive silver fox fur which adorn ed toilets of the highest cost last season. Another boy in vbbt velvet wore bis coat and sleeves trimmed with very heavy point. It is possi ble tbat the carnival shows and ta bleaux in which children have been . 1 so conspicuous u.eiy nave losiereu this love of finery where it is barmy best placed. It look9 very pretty to see boys and girls dressed like tbe court children in antique pictures, but when they don't happen to be young princes or even counts or countesses at all, but the offspring of hardworking and anxious financiers in Wall Street, a dozen of whom go down every two years, tbe idea doesn't seem so well carried out. Theatricals on American streets are uncalled for. Pietko. UKAT 1KD HAYES. YESTERDAY'S EVENTS AT PHILADEL PHIA DEPEPARTtRE OF THE EX PRESIDENT FOR, EUROPE. A POPU LAR OVATION TO THE TRAVELER.

Numer ous salutes were fired as tbe escort ing steamers passed down tbe river. The fleet came together near New Castle, and at tbat point the river was covered with gaily dressed steamers and rirer cratt, and amidst salutes ot cannon and steam whis tles, tbe dipping of fl-gs, waring of thousands ot haokercbiefs and re sounding cheers, ibe ex-President and bis family were transferred from tbeir steamers tc tbe Indiana.
