It is charged that the re-election of Geary was secured by the manipula tion of election returns in Philadel phia and Luzerne county and by other fraudulent practices. The Democratic papers in Philadelphia, the Age and the Evening Herald, have asserted that Judge Packer received a majority of the legal votes cast for Governor in that city, art! that the apparent ma jority for Geary is tru hped up and fac titious These charges should be in vestigated. We are tired of the cry of '•fraud !" "Laud !" raised after each successive election, by the defeated party. InISUT the Radicals insisted that Judge jSharswood was elected by illegal and unfair means, but made no effort to show that what they asserted was true. In 186:1 the Democrats claimed that Woodward was defeated by unlawful appliances, yet no at tempt wits made to establish yio fact. There should be an end of this. The defeated party should acknowl edge the triumph of its adversary, or, if it claims such triumphs to have been obtained by foul means, it should re - rt to the propel 1 legal measures to re dress its wrongs, which are as well the wrongs of the people. We were !>eateri in the Jate election. This much is cer tain. If we were fairly beaten, let us admit the unpleasant fact and iuok to the future for a better result. If we were cheated, it is our duty to contend for our rights and to vindicate them at ail hazards. Owing to the representa tion- of the Democratic press in Phila delphia, the masses of the parti* sin cerely believe that Geary's alleged ma jority is fraudulent, and out of this be lief has grown a general sentiment in favor of contesting the election. True there are not many so sanguine as to hope that Geary may be ousted and Packer placed in the gubernatorial seat, for few have any confidence in the fairness of the Radical legislature before which such a contest must be tried. But it is thouj it that an in vestigation should be had, in order that the corrupt practices of the Rad ical managers in Philadelphia and else where may be exposed and the purity of the ballot-box vindicated. We, therefore, hope that the State Commit tee will see to it that the proper peti tion for a contest >.-> filed, anil mat oili er necessary preparations are made for a thorough investigation of the alleg ed frauds by the Radicals at the late election. If ballot-box stuffing, manip ulation of election papers and whole sale disfranchisement of precincts and distrii ts, are to be the rule, the public should know it as soon as possible. Let us lay the ax at the root of the supposed evil, or cease to complain of it- existence. If we make no effort to right the wrong, we deserve to la? the victims of the imposture which we de nounce but fear to grapple with iu earnest. What says the Democratic press of the State. Shall we investi gate, or content ourselves with idle complaints? Gov. HODDEN of North Carolina is engaged in carrying out a plan of ope rations In regard to the organization of negro militia which is creating a great deal of excitement amongst the people of that State. What his actual inten tions are has not transpired, but from the socresv of his movements the peo ple have been led to anticipate conse quences far from being agreeable to themselves. What the assembling of these negro troops means has not yet been developed, but it seems remarka ble that there should be any occasion for convening them, and the reasons why and wherefore lie unknown to the public generally. THE cool assurance with which many radical newspapers of the State in sert the name of Edward Scuil instead of that of Ilirani Findlay in the lists of State Senators, would indicate that their editors, at least, would not hesi tate to conn ait the outrage of throw ing away the vote of an entire election district because of mere informality, in order to gain a party advantage. We have a reason to believe that there is a strong majority in the Senate, which could not be induced to carry into effect such a dishonest scheme, ev en if the attempt were ma le. Pkbsioknt Grant's endless pere grinations have earned for that func tionary the sririyuelof "Tim Great A meriean Traveler." Daniel Pratt and (he immortal J. N., consequently, both consider themselves in the line oT succession as candidates for the radical nomination for the Presidency. The Puritans of Massachusetts, in stead of e iting roast turkey and rejoic ing generally on Thanksgiving Day, propose to employ the time in fasting and prayer, if the rest of the |>eop!e will not agree with them, they intend to have another day appointed to car ry out their views of thanksgiving. TOW* v*. I'OI'STKT. Governor Hoffman, of New York, recently delivered an address before an Agricultural Society, which, though highly colored and joetieal in the main, contained some suggestions of very practical value to farmers. He enforced the advantages arising from a liberal education, the advisability of rendering their homes pleasant and at tractive, and gave rather glowing de scriptions of the advantages enjoyed by the husbandman over bis fellow-labor er—the artisan. The most pertinent point of his addiess, however, was con tained in his advice to the sons of far mers against abandoning the slow and certain success of agricultural pursuits for the uncertain and wearing ones of city commercial life. This counsel was never more needed or applicable than at present, when every description of trade and commerce is duller than usu al in our targe town.. The number of clerks, book-keepers and salesmen out of employment forms a very large pro portion of our population, and the number daily increases as business be comes more depressed. Considering the healthy, invigorating results of a farmer's life, and its absolutely certain profits, it is more than doubtful that it is good to abandon it at any time for the feverish, uncertain hopes of reward held out by the city ; but at present, when, for every vacant clerkship, there area hundred applicants, it is folly for the young fanner to think of exchang ing the country for the town. He is not wanted here, and he is wanted there; it is nothing to urge that the fall harvests are garnered ; that he has nothing to do about the farm, and that ho may find work in the city for his idle hands to do. In both cases he is apt to be mistaken; about the farm there is always work to be done—work that is healthy alike for body and soul. But while employment is only a bare possibility here, want of it is a fact that stares thousands in the face, and plun ges hundreds into the way of tempta tion and vice. As for embarking in any business at present that requires capital, the in vestment would hardly be considered judicious, unless supported by experi ence and knowledge of trade, neither of which young farmers would be like ly to have. In any case, however, the risk would be great while business re mains in its present flat condition, and, undoubtedly, those who take Governor Hoffman's advice, and stick to the plow, wiil be doing the wisest thing imssihle City JTj-ch <mfr ■■ IN every report of the Secretary of the Treasury, we are informed of a large amount of capital laying idle—of gold and silver and greenbacks. What good does that amount do the coun try in its hoarded piles? Why not put it to use? All the government abso lutely needs, is sufficient for ordinary outlay and expenses; beyond that ev ery dollar should be used to reduce the debt and relieve the taxation. We are paying heavy interest on the millions now laying idle in the Treas ury vaults. Is there an honest farmer or badness man in the country that would mortgage his property to the a mount of millions at a heavy per een tage, while he had the capital laying idle in bank? The country is suffering in business for the wan: of capital; let the Treasu rer pay it out. WHO was the Philadelphia account ant employed by Gov. Geary to cipher out the defalcation in Ex-State Treas urer Kemble's accounts, so strongly suspected by his Excellency, and what did his figures prove? Some people want to know.

The chestnut trees have already submitted to some dele terious agency, and their growth is nearly exhausted, and this year the oak and in fact all the trees of the forest in certain sections are dying.

Appalling l>issltr—Over 200 llvin lott. CHICAGO, October 28.—A special from Cnrbondale, Illinois, says that the steamer Stonewall, which left St. Louis on Tuesday evening for New Orleans, heavily laden with passen gers, horses, mules, bay, and other freight generally, last night about eight o'clock, when near Neely's Landing, ten miles from Grand Tow er, took fire, and despite all efforts to save her, was burned to the water's edge. When the fire broke out every effort wasjmade to land, but the steamer was so heavily laden that she could not be brought nearer than one hundred yards of the shore. Great confusion and terror prevailed. There were a bout two hundred cabin and deck pas sengers aboard, quite a number of whom were women and children. The flames spread with great rapidi ty. Scores of men sprung into the water and attempted to reach the shore by swimming. Nearly all these were lost. Every conceivable object that could he obtained was thrown into the water, and to those the passengers clung with all the tenacity of life. The steamer Belle Memphis, ('apt. C'ranly, on her way to St. Louis, reach ed the scene during the fire and picked up from the water all that are known to be saved. The pilot, engineer, sto ker, carpenter and forty-four passen gers are known to be saved. The cap tain, clerks and other officers, deck hands and many passsengers were lost. All the books and papers of the boat were lost, as also were the cattle and other freight on board. A num ber of persons died after reaching the shore, from exposure in the water. There was no explosion. All of the women and children were lost—near ly if not all being burned to death. The conduct of the passengers and officers is said to have been heroic. Such an appalling scene has not been witnessed on the Mississippi for many years. The saved were kindly cared for by the officers of the Belle of Mem phis, and were carried to St. Louis. The number lost is over two hundred. Three Boy* lioltl ;t T'ourtli over n I'ire and Boast Him. We have heard of an act perpetrated on the 20th inst., near this borough, which surpasses in cool ferocity and fiendishnes- anything that ever took place in this country. It seems that on that day, three boys belonging to this borough or Mt. Carbon, it is not yet definitely known, vent out on the road between this borough and Cress ona. uutii they reached a point about a mile beyond Hillside. About a quar ter of a mile from the house of a labor er named Hornickel, several children were playing, among them his son Frederick, between 11 and 12 years of age. The boys when they reached this spot, built a fire, seized and drag ged Frederick to it, and most horrible to state, held the little hoy over it, un til he was aciuany roasted. When found the injured boy was in a terrible condition, and it is feared that he is burned internally by inhaling the flames, lie has not been able to talk since the occurrence and is in a critical condition. We understand that the motive for the inhuman act is suppossed to have revenge fur information th.it Frederick had given of some boys who had re cently robbed a neighbor's spring house. One arrest has been made, and after a partial hearing before Squire Fraiiey the accused was held for a further hearing on Wednesday next. That mere boys should be guilty of such a fiendish act seems incompre hensible, but the facts of the case are to that effect If discovered and con victed, the incarceration in the prison for a lifetime would not be too severe a punishment.—J liner's Journal. Ijwaal*ofOuc Hundred Indians mim ed to Heath. The Sioux City Times learns from Cap tain Hill, commander of Fort Rice the details of one of the most harrowing tales of loss of life by fire that has ev er came within the range of later day occurrences. About five weeks since a band of the "Sioux," under "Little Bear" were camped on the South side of the .Missouri river above Fort Riee. A large number of squaws with their papooses accompanied the Indians. They camped for the night, and not thinking of danger, had all gone to sleep ; about midnight the pra irie contiguous to their lodges was set on fire, and before the alarm could be given, or measures taken to save their lives, about one hundred were consum ed in the flames, together with a con siderable amount of dried meats, and such articles as I hey usually carry with them, or use while in camp ; about sev enty ponies, were likewise burned, the others made their escape by being driven to a place of safety. Appletons's Illustrated Almanac for 1870 is the most elegantly-Illustrated publication of the kind issued in A merica. Its brilliantly-tinted cover, and its numerous illustrations, from o riginal designs by American artists, make it in pictorial attractions su premely beautiful. It is edited by Miss Susan Fenimore Cooper, one of the most agreeable writers on rural subjects that we have. The price of this most elegant volume is only thir ty cents, which remitted to 1).

On Friday morning last, a firececur red at the Licking County Infirmary, situated 2 miles south of Granville, Ohio, Two building- were destroyed. The one was occupied by ten insane persons, and when the fire was discov ered if was too late to rescue them. — They were locked in their rooms, and all perished. The fire originated from the furnace. The people in the vicinity of Day ton and Forest Station, Ohio, were startled early, Wednesday morning of last week, by the appearance of an im mense meteor, which filled the air with sulphurous otlor, and was accom panied by a booming sound, causing the houses to shake and some of the windows to break. Miss Pet McKay, a young lady of Quiucy, 111., deliberately drowned her self in that place, 011 Thursday of last week.

H c h c nek's Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pi lis, will curoCon sumption, Liver Complaint, and Dyspepsia, it ta ken according to direction? They are nil three to be taken at the game time. They cleanse the stomach, relax the liver,and put it to work : then the appetite becomes good ; the food digests and makes good blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh : the diseased matter ripens in the lungs, and the patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This is the only way to cure consumption To these three medicines Dr J II Schenck. of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treatment of pulmonary consumption The Pul monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the lungs, nature throws it oil'by an easy expcctora tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slightcough will throw it off, and the patient has rest and the lungs begin to heal. To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the food will make good blood Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, removing all obstructions, relax the ducts of the gall-bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved ; the stools will show what the Pills can do ; nothing has ever been invented ex cept calomel (a deadly poison which is very dan gerous to U3C unless with great care), that will unlock the gall-bladder and starts the secretions of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pills Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent causes of Consumption. Schenck's Seaweed Tonic i? a gentle stimulant and alterative, and the Alkali in the Seaweed, which this preparation is made of, assists the stomach to thr.w out the gastric juice to dissolve the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made into good blood without fermentation or souring in the stomach. The great reason why physicians do not cure consumption is, they try to do too inuch ; they j give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they derange the whole digestive powers, locking up the secre'ions, and eventually the patient sinks and dies Dr. Schenck. in his treatment, docs not try to stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or fever. Ite move the cause, and they will all stop of their own accord. No one can be cured of Consump tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarh, Can ker. Ulcerated Throat, unless ihe liver and stom ach are made healthy. If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lungs in some way are diseased, either tubercleg, ab scesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lur.gs are a mass of indammatior. and fast de caying. In such cases what must be done? It is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is the whole The stomach and liver have lost their power to make blood out of food. Now the only charce is to take Schenck's three medicines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the patient will begiu to want food, it will digesteasi ly and make good blood : then the patient begins to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body begins to grow, the lungs commence to heal ap.and the pa tient gets Uesny ant well. This is the only way to cure cor,sump!ion. When there is no lung disease, and only Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient without the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills freely in all billious complaints, as they are per fectly harmless. Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyel uninterrupted health for many years past, and now weighs 225 pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption, his physicians having pronounced his case hope less and abandoned him to his fate, lie was cured by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery many thousands similarly afflicted have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with tho same remarkable success Full directions accompanying each, make it not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr. Schenck, unless tho patienis wish their lungs examined and for this purpose he is professional ly at his Principal Office, Philadelphia, every Satur I iy, where all let ers for advice must be ad dressed IP' is also professionally at No. 32 Bond Street, New York, every other I uesday, ami at No. 35 Hanover Street, Boston, every other Wednesday.
