The election is over. The Democra
cy have been beaten —beaten but not
conquered. Radical ism lias been saved
by the military prestige of Grant.
Saved? We shall see. We believe it
has been destroyed by the election of a
man "without a policy."
Grant, as President, must do one of
two things, viz: lie must administer
the government within the Constitu
tion, or he must become a despot. If
he does the former, he will be a Demo
cratic President; if Ihe latter, his fate
will be that of every tyrant that ever 1
undertook to enslave a free people.
Let us hope for the best. Perhaps it 1
is all the better for the Democracy that
they have not been made the adminis
trator- of the rotten estate of the Radi
cal parly. Now the Radicals can make |
their own settlement with the people.
They will have to do it soon, and do it
thoroughly, or they will be held to a ;
fearful account.
We give below the political coinplex
ionof the several states, as reported by
telegraph :

The majority for Seymour in this
county, will scarcely exceed 250. It ;
was impossible to get a full poll of the
Democratic vote, after the reverse we
sustained in(>ctober. ilad Pennsylva
nia gone Democratic then, Bedford
county would have given 600 majority
for Seymour. As it is we have made
a gpod tight. We have returns only
from the following districts:

These districts show a Democratic
los- of 77 on the October vote. The to
tal vote of the county will be consid
erably less than at the last election.
THE RARU'AIA make a habit of
nominating renegades from Democra
cy under the impression that such i
nominations bring strength to their
ticket. This is why they nominated
John Cessna. Now mark the result in
Bedford county. Cessna, for Congress,
received 2655, and Hams, Radical can
didate for County Surveyor, received
2605. Hams leads Ce—na 10 votes!
In Franklin county the result was
-till worse for the renegade. Cessna
received li'-'2 votes, whilst Lehman,
the Radical candidate for Commission
er, receive! ! "•52. Lehman leads Cess
na 160. Lehman has a majority of 90,
whilst Cessna is beaten 211, making a
difference against Cessna ot 301.
Our Radical friends can study these
figures at their leisure and decide for
themselves whether it pays to pur
chase renegade-at that price.— Valley

Tin: OLR GUARD FOR NOVEMBER. —
As we draw near the hour of battle,
TJIK OLD GUARD assumes a tone of
boldness, vigor and pluck worthy of its
title. The ff-ue for the coming month
is most excellent in all itadopartnients
political, literary, scientific and art,
but especially in its political matter.
We find the articles under the headings
of "U. H. Grant, by a General of the
United States Army," "The Plea for
Standing Armies." "Are We a tree
People," Ac., and considerable of the
melange which makes up the Editor's
Table, of especial interest at this event
ful moment in our national history.
Every member ofs lie Democracy should
read these articles. The balance of tiro
number contains the usual miscellany,
very varied and entertaining. The
Book Table is even above the average,
which is no ordinary commendation.
Let every voter who desire to under
stand the principles upon which a good
government is alone established, and
alone sustained, read THE < )LR GUARD.

JEFF RAMS NOT TO HE TRIED.—
The New York San says: "The next
term of the United States Circuit Court
in Richmond opens on the fourth Mon
day of November. There, if any
where, Jefferson Davis will be tried.
There he is indicted, and lias been for
a long time past--indicted for treason
against the United States. But Jeff
Davis will not lie tried. There is not
enough in the case to pay for trying it.
No capital would be a force in which
the actors would necessarily render
themselves ridiculous.

Home Southern rogues have invented
and put in practice a method of rob
bing cars which is novel. At a favora
ble point they grease the track, and
while the locomotive is struggling and
slipping to get along with its load,
they break open a freight car and tum
ble out boxes and barrels, and whatev
er they can find to their liking. The
night being chosen for the purpose, the
stolen goods are not noticed by tiie
conductor of the train, whose attention
is occupied by the unexpected deten
tion of the train.
A large stock grower in Texas, dis
gusted with the prices offered by butch
ers and drovers, has posted a notice in
the market place at Brownsville, that
he will begin to slaughter a drove of
beeves and give the meat to the poor
for nothing, and will do the same un
til the whole drove is disposed of, or
until he can get a reasonable price.
This he says, he can afford to do ; as he
can sell the hides and tallow for more
than the butchers offer for the animals
alive.
The Report of the Agricultural Bu
reau at Washington for the month of
October has-been published. It says
the full promise of the early summer ;
has not been realized in the wheat liar- j
vest. The increased area over that oft
last year is about neutralized by dimin
ution in the yield, so that the increase
in the total quantity as shown by the
October returns, will not be more than
three per cent, and that is obtained
mainly from the Pacific coast. In
Maryland and Wisconsin the grain has
not yielded as much in threshing as
was expected.

THE FAMOUS AITS.!, TREE.
The Montgomery Picayune contains
an interesting account of Lee's surren
der from which we take the following:
"Every now and then we see in our
exchanges erroneous descriptions of
the surrender at Appomattox, and how
Gen. Lee stood and surrendered un
der an apple tree—how Gen. Grant ad
mired Gen. Lee's beautiful sword, and
returned it, remarking that Lee was too
brave a man to be without a weapon,
Ac., Ac.
"Gentle reader, none of these things
happened. Lee did not surrender un
der an apple tree. He did not offer
his sword to Grant. Grant did not ad
mire the weapon and return it. If our
readers will bear with us, we will give
the surrender as we saw it.
* "Gen. Lee views the hopeless
conflict from a distance, dispatches a
flag of truce to Gen. Grant, the struggle
ends, and the hostile lines are drawn
back. While this correspondence was
going on, and while General Lee was
waiting the arrival of Gen. Grant, he
took shelter from the sun under an ap
ple tree in McLane's orchard, under
which Talcot, of the engineer corps, had
placed some rails for a seat, and fully
1 half a mile from Appomatox. Gen.
! Grant's arrival on the outskirts of the
i army was soon announced. Lee, in a
full suit of gray, with his English
sword girded to his side riding forward
on his gray to meet Grant—he was a
warrior to whom history itself might
stoop to gaze. The interview between
i the opposing chieftains was severely
simple, but few attendants present, it
took place between the pickets of the
two armies and lasted only a few min
utes. Grant apologized for not having
his sword which was behind in the
wagon. The terms were agreed upon,
and Lee rode back to his army. Com
missioners on either side wereappoint
|ed to arrange details. The surrender
| became known, and then, to us, for
two days a blank. List of our names
were made out,and two days afterwards,
with heavy hearts, we tiled by, brigade
at a time, before a line of captors, and
deposited our banners and arms. Gen.
Lee rode homeward on the third day,
and all was over.
Criii'Kjr to Children.
In Rochester, X. Y., a woman named
Mary Svvingler has just been sentenced
to the Penitentiary for six months for
abominable cruelty toward her adopted
daughter seven years old. It was al
leged by the prisoner that the little
girl had stolen a piece of candy, and it
was to deter her from committing fur
ther thefts that she punished her in
the manner she did. By roasting the
little one's hands over the stove she
said she intended to give her an idea
of what hell is, a place to which she
would surely go if she stole any more.
She thought it her.duty to punish the
child to save its soul from perdition,
and nothing could so well convey her
idea of perdition to the little one's ten
der mind as roasting its hands over a
"young hell," the withering fire of a
cooking stove. The exclamations of
the girl, "Oh! mother, it hurts!"—
"Oh ! mother, it hurts awfully!" and
the noise of the crackling flesh did not
make the woman desist, and only the
interference of neighbors prevented her
from inflicting injuries which, doubt
less, would have proved permanent.
But few women in the city have a
more benevolent and peaceable look
ing countenance than hers.
Another horrible story comes from
Worchester, Mass: Mrs. Catharine
Connor, residing on Foy street, com
mitted a series of outrages on her lit
tle daughter last week that should draw
down upon her head the hottest of
public indignation. Last Friday night,
bitter and biting in its extreme cold
j ness, she stripped the little Lizzie,
who is about eleven years old, and
turned her naked into the cold night
and dark street. The little tl.ing laid
down under a tree and cried herself to
' sleep. The same inhuman treatment
was practised on the succeeding night,
, and on Saturday morning the child
[ j was found and cared for by a kind
neighbor. An appeal was made to the
i mother for the child's clothes, but she
refused to give them up, and since
then the child has been fed and clotli
! Ed by strangers.

SAX FRANCISCO, Oct. 24.—Details of
the destruction of property in the inte
rior of the State by the earthquake of
the 21st have been received. Alame
da county suffered the most damage to
property, extending in all directions
back to San Leandro. Numerous fis
sures of earth were made, from some
of which came clouds of dust and oth
ers volumes of water. San Leandro
creek, which for months was dry, is
now running rapidly. The villages of
San Leandro and I jay ward are almost
in ruins. The brick buildings are all
thrown down or uninhabitable There
was only one building uninjured at Al
amado. Brooklano and Oakland aNo
suffered severely. San Jose, Redwood
City, Great Brick and Aodbe House
and the Mission of San Jose are a mass
of ruins. Petolauuia, liealthsburg,
Santa Rosa Valley and .Martinez all
felt the full force of the shock. Chim
neys and walls were thrown down.
The damage to property is considerable
at Los Angelas. In the State of Neva
da the earthquake was scarcely felt.
The San Francisco committee of arch
itects report the city hall unsafe, and
the building is to be taken down.
Damage to the school house ' 'rilling,
and the schools open as usual 011 Mon
day next. The United States marine
hospital building has been condemned,
and will be demolished. The patients
at present are encamped 011 the grounds
adjoining the hospital. The custom
house is wrecked to such an extent that
it w ill probably not be occupied again.
Laborers are at work to-day on the
shattered buildingand removing debris
from the streets.

NKW YORK, Oct.2B.—An extensive I
robbery took place this morning in Ce
dar street, closely resembling various
others which have occurred lately, and i
in which the perpetrators, by tin' ut
most daring, have escaped scot free,
prybably, never to be heard of again.
It appears that C. W. Woolsey went
this morning to the Safe Deposit Com
pany's office, in Broadway, and took
out a tin box belonging to himself, and
containings6o,ooo in five-twenty bonds,
$40,000 in railroad stock, and $12,000 to
$13,000 in currency, lie took it in his
hand, and walked with it down Cedar j
street, to No. 77, where he entered Ed
mund Coffin's Real Estate office, and
placing his box on a desk, with his hat
and umbrella upon the box. lie turned
around to speak with a clerk, when
whiz! he heard a noise behind, turned
round and saw a young man with the
tin box in his hand making for thedoor.
Theory of "Stop thief!" was immedi
ately raised, but the thief had better
legs than any body else, for he manag
ed to make good his escape with the
box, and poor Mr. Woolsey, who five
minutes before was a rich man, stood
ruined. A good enough view of the
daring thief was got to furnish a des
cription of his appearance, and the de
tectives have been entrusted, with John
: Young at their head, with the duty of
catching the thief and recovering the

GERMAN REFORMED SYNOD.—This
body which has been in session in our
town, adjourned yesterday, the 2!>th
inst. There were one hundred and
i seventy delegates present. On Mon
day last, Rev. Dr. E. V. Gerhart was
inaugurated Professor of Didactic and
Practical Theology, in the Theological
Seminary, Mercersburg, in place of
Rev. Dr. ilarbaugh, dee'd. The most
exciting affair of the session was the
case of Bov. Dr. Boniberger. This gen
tleman published, in February last,
among other things, the following:
"Those unwilling to vote for Dr.
Gerhart were not permitted to nomi
! nate their candidate" for theological
i professor.
"The refusal to allow those desiring
to have their candidate was a most ex
traordinary proceeding, unknown ev
en among secular politicians, and
: without a precedent in the Church."
"We charged the Synod under whose
sole and entire control the Theologi
cal Seminary is, with being the 'litur
gical wing,'and as becomingsochurch
" ly as to cease to be Reformed.' "
This language the Synod almost
unanimously resolved should be re
tracted by Dr. Boniberger, under pen
alty of denial to him of a seat in the
Body. On Saturday last, Dr. Boniber
ger tiled the following paper, which
was received by the Synod as honora
ble and satisfactory:
"1 retract the publication of the
words or language which are deemed
objectionable by this Synod, and regret
that they should have become the oc
casion of offence."— Jfugerxtomi Mail,

PRETTY GOOD.— Many incidents of
■ an amusing character happened during
the late war, which have never found
their way into print, hut which are too
good to lie lost. The following, we be
lieve, has not heretofore met the public
. eye:
Wash Petty, a noted bushwhacker,
whilst foraging in Southwest Missouri
with his followers, rode up to a farm
house whose owner was known to have
ample provisions for man and beast,
but whose politics were best known to
himself. Petty and his men being
dressed in Federal uniform, were mis
taken by the farmer for jay hawkers.
! He began to declare most positively
that he was a "Union man ; God nevei
made a better." Petty said, "we art
hunting your sort; we are rebel bush
| wackers." Whereupon the farmei
changed his tactics and declared just as
positively that he was a "Southern
man." "Look here old man," said Pet
ty, "you don't know to which side wt
, belong, and you must take one side oi
j the other, and stick to it; if you hap
pen to take the wrong side we'll
; kill you." This staggered the old
| man considerably, but after thinking v
minute, he said; "Well, 1 said at tin
start 1 was a Union man, I'll stick to it
if it is a d—d lie."
He was left to enjoy his peculiar o
j pinion without further molestation.
CURIOUS CALCULATION. —When the
public debt of the United States caused
by the rebellion was at its highest
point it amounted to nearly one dollar
a minute for the time that has elapsed
since the creation of the world. Ac
cording to generally accepted chrono
logy it was 1,001 years from the crea
tion to the birth of Christ; that makes
this the year of the world 3,872. There
are 000 minutes inayear of 3Gsdays;
I the whole number of minutes, then,
since the beginning is .'1,030,010,200 —
in round numbers, three thousand
millions, which is about tho number
of dollars of our debt at its highest
figure. Quite flattering toour national
vanity, of course.
CUKE FOR IN-GROWING NAILS.—
It is stated that cauterization by hot
; tallow is an immediate cure for in
growing nails. Put a small piece of
tallow in a spoon, and heat it over a
lamp until it becomes very hot, and
i drop two or three drops between the
nail and granulation. The effect is al
most magical. Pain and tenderness
are at ouce relieved, and in a few days
| the granulations all go, leaving the
; diseased parts dry, so as to admit of
being pared away without any incon
i venience. The operation causes little
if any pai>, if the tallow is properly
J heated.
JUDGE CHASE is now laboriously en
! gaged on a number of important eases
1 which were submitted at the last term
of tho Supreme Court, hut in which no
decisions were rendered. He leaves
Washington in a few days to hold a
session of the United States Circuit
Court in Savannah, Ga.
The Burlingame mission treaty has
been freely discussed in the China

KEEP WARM AND SAVE YORK
LIFE.—At this season many deaths
take place which might lie prevented
by wanner clothing. Many a fatal
ease of dysentery is caused by the
i want of a woolen undershirt, or of an I
extra blanket at night. The sudden
changes of temjierature which occur at
this period of the year are very trying
to the constitution. People with weak
lungs quickly feel the effect of them.
Frequently the thermometer talis
many degrees within a few hours. Not
only the feeble, but robust and strong
persons suffer from such great varia-
I tions of temperature. When the
weather grows cold rapidly, the pores
of the skin are suddenly closed, and |
the result frequently is a bad cold,
winch many hold on all winter and
terminate in consumption, or a fatal
| attack of dysentery, or that dreadful
I disease the typhoid fever.
If the day seems ever so warm and
! bright, it is much safer to wear plenty
of underclothing at this season. In the
evening the dews fall, and it grows
chilly very suddenly. At all times,
even when it feels warmest, one ex
periences the difference which is so j
marked, between the autumn atmos
phere ami that of the summer. There
is something more than the mere dif
ference in temperature; it may be in
the electricity. An occasional tire in a
| room dries the wall and purifies the at
mosphere. A little timely attention
I to all these things would prevent a
great deal of the disease and sufferings
which are among the ills to which hu
manity is liable.
GORGEOUSSUNSETS.— I low few there
are who really enjoy the gorgeous sun
sets of the autumn. This is the season
when they are seen in perfection, and
! the sight, to those who are fortunate
enough to have a west window, with an
unobstructed view, is one that fills the
mind with the most pleasing emotions.
; No painter can rival the magnificent
I tints of gold and purple in the clouds,
as the sun gradually sinks to rest be
! hind them. Who can look upon such a
scene :uid remain unmoved ? And yet
we are often too unmindful of all that
the Creator has done to render the
world agreeable and pleasant. The
sight of the beautiful autumn sunsets
j ought to raise the soul out of the slough
of grinding commerce to the contem
plation of scenes that money cannot
I purchase. What a pity it is that so
many men endowed with eyes, can see
! nothing above them! nothing good,
massive, glorious, soul-purifying or in
! spiring. '
ENCOURAGE THE YOUNG.—If a
young man deserves praise be sure you
give it to him, else you not only run
a chance of driving him from the right
road by want of encouragement, but de
prive yourself of the happiest privilege
you will ever have of rewarding hi- la
bor. For it is only the young who can
receive much reward from men'.-praise;
the old, when they are great, get too
far beyond and above what you may
think of them. You may urge them
with sympathy, and surround them
with acclamation, !>u f they will doubt
! your pleasure and despise your praise.
You might have cheered them in theii
race through the asphodel meadows of
their youth. You might have brought
1 the proud bright scarlet to their faces
1 if you had cried but once, "Well
done!" ;is they dashed up the first goal
of their early ambition. But now their
' pleasure is memory, ambition is in
' heaven. They can be kind to you, and
' you can never more be kind to the m.
SOAP.— Get from a druggist a pint
box of concentrated lye for 40 cents.
Empty contents into a gallon of boiling
water. Let it have ten hours to dis
solve. Then empty it into a boiler,
add another gallon of water, and welin
the two gallons boil pour in four
pounds of liquid grease, stirring it well
until thoroughly mixed. Let it sim
mer for four or six hours, and half an
hour before taking it off a gallon of hot
water may be added. Two tablespoon
fuls of pulverized borax and four of
rosin add greatly to its detersive quali
ties ; but a teacup full of salt must be
thrown in. When thought done, dip
in a case knife, and if the mass drops
clear, ropy and chills quickly it is soap.
Empty into a wash tub having the
sides wet, and in a few hours you will
have twenty-five pounds of hard
white soap ready to be cut for use.
SHORT RULE FOR MEASURING
GRAIN.— An exchange says: It is con
venient to farmers and croppers to
have an easy and correct rule by which
to measure corn in cribs. Here is one
having leveled the corn in the crib,
measure the length, breadth, and
depth, and multiply them together,
and deduct from the product one-fifth;
and you have the number of bushels in
tho ear—for shelled corn take one-half
of this. To be strictly correct, add half
a bushel for every one hundred. Farm
ers who are fond of cyphering can test
the correctness of this rule by taking
1,728 solid inches for a foot, and 2,130
inches in a bushel, and see that the lat
ter is nearly one-fifth larger than the
former.
It is estimated that there are 7,<K10,<11 0
