The people in that sec tion are not at all pleased with this action of the pardon board aud freely express tho opinion that such pardons are an encouragement to criminals. JAKI SHAHP, the New York alder man, who is at present in jail, to a wait the result of bis trial, is in a dy ing condition. He is said to be a physical wTeck and his doctor says the slightest excitement may kill him. Sharp's chances to stand before a higher tribunal before the court gets through with him may stop] legal proceedings against him for the pres ent THK Democratic County Committee will have a meeting in the arbitration room in the Court House at Bellefonte, on Saturday, July 9th, at 11 o'clock, a. m., sharp, for the purpose of ap portioning the Delegates to the sev eral election districts in the county, and making arrangements for holding the Delegate Election, Ac. Chairman McClain urges all members of the committee to be on hand. THK "Bears" in Wail street, New York, got off a nice little maneuvore last Friday by spreading the report that Jay Could is dead. The stocks consequently took a big tumble and Manhattan railroad stock dropped from 150 to 120. Fortunately Mr. Gould, who at the time was at his office i n excellent health, could at once contra dict the report, and shaken confi dence was restored to some degree. REPRKSKNTATIVX Blount, of Georgia, favors the erection of a new executive mansion in Washington. He recent ly paid a yisit to the White House and seeing its dilapidated condition remarked that the time has come when congress should take steps in that direction. It will be remembered that Mr. Blonnt was the very man who always opposed any appropri ations wbich congress wished to make fur the improvement of the White House and his change of opinion may expedite matters when the question comes np again. THK Interstate Commerce Com mission has rendered a long and elab orate decision upon the fourth section of the Interstate Commerce law which prohibits a greater charge for the transportation of passengers and prop erty over a shorter than over a longer distance in the same direction under substantially the same circumstances and condition. This has been the knotty point ot the law, and the one which has drawn forth the greatest number of complaints from the rail roads. They haye claimed that it was impossible to comply with tLe terms of the fenrth section in their lit eral construction without disorganiza tion and loss. The Commission has decided, in the first place, that it can neither abrogate this part of law, nor give it a construction which will serve as a guide in all eases. The railroads must fix their own scale of rates for long and short distances at their own risk, subject to accountability before the Commission and the courts in cases where complaint is made by in terested parties, of violation of the law. For tbe guidance of tbe rail roads, however, tbe Commission form ulates its opinion that more may be charged for tbe short than for tbe long haul in cases where tbe railroads have to meet competition by carriers not subject to the act, and where a strict enforcement of the clause would destroy competition. The decision will help tbe railroads ont for a time, but it is very probable that it will soon precipitate a new avalanche of complaints upon the Cotnmission from parties aggrieved by railroad discrimi nations. GOVERNOR Beaver will likely ap point Judge Williams to the vacancy in the Supreme Judgeship in this state. A strong pressure has been brought to bear upon Gov.

AIM'KOVKD —May l.th, iss7. A reporter to the Philadelphia Sun day Timt's says that Secretary Fair child is keeulv sensible to the respon sibilties of his position as far as it con trols not only the monetary opera tions of the government but*the quiet and security ol business and trade* It is very apparent that he realizes the lUiigi'W of tlio reckless spirit of spooulution which is now abroad in tlio laiul, us in stanced in tho recent squeeze in wheat, slump in ootVeo and manipulations in the stock market. The maintenance of the statu quo in the money and business affairs of the next few months will largely dc|x-nd UJHUI his use of the] power in his hands. The present heavy tqieenlati ve enter prises are regarded among Treasury offi cers as indicating too much expnnsiou.iuoney bei tig abundant and ready to jump at the most chimerical schemes. It is thought that the accumulation of the surplus w ill o|erate as a cheek II|M>II this. In event of too great contraction one of the two expe dients, anticipating interest or buying Kinds will be resorted to. The Secretary is keeping a vigilant eye ujsm the financial situation, and fi-els confident of his übility to main tain the equilihrum of trade and finances until congress meets, should it lie to Octo ber or December. What the ever-liopeful t'ooper thinks. Senator Coojier was in the city on Sat urday calling on the governor and other state dignitaries. The senator is a strong K liever in ]>o]itical jioliey of an extra session to consider revenue legislation, aud lias ex pressed an opinion that it will l>o called a bout November. He, with many other r*- publicans. thinks the party will go into the campaign seriously h-uulicapi>ed if the |*-o ple are not assured of a special session to repair the wrong done by stranding of the revenue bill, and he seems to have informa tion authorizing him to declare that the gov ernor will issue a call for it before the elec tion. Senator l\>oper is prominently men tioned for chairman of the commission, and if he should be selected an early rejiort may be expected.— lhirrisbttrg l\itri<>t. The State Agricultural Society Makes Well-grounded Charges Against Governor Beaver. At a special meeting of the members of the state agricultural society, which was well attended, President Wilhelm made rather serious charges against Governor Beaver. He asserted that before the bill for the relief of the society was introduced in the legislature the Governor had said lie would be favorable to its passage, and that if passed in both branches it would receive his approval—that there were no qualifica tions aKuit it. He further said that the governor had even urged several senators to vote for the hill. It was also declared that before the bill had passed K>tli branches by an almost unanimous vote the governor told several members of the society that if any constitutional objections were rais<-d to the approval of the bill, he would give the rep resentatives of the society opjiortunity to he heard before him, that notwithstanding all these expressions of approval of the bill, and the promises made as to the hearing in case of constitutional objection to it, the governor not only vetoed the hill,hut vetoed if among the first, without giving the officers or any of the representatives of the society any opportunity whatever of being heard. WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our regular correspondent.) WASHINGTON. June 27,1857 Queen Victoria's Jubilee was celebrated to some extent, even in this Capitol of the greatest Republic. President Cleveland sent a congratulatory cablegram to Mr. West, the British Minister, gave a great dinner, to which many distinguished guests sat down, and a''VictoriaMeniinoialKooiu" was dedicated at tho Garfield Hospital, with appropriate ceremonies, by the Society of St. George. The "Star Swingled Banner" and "God Save the Queen" K-ing sung in honor of the Queen's ,! übilee. S]>caking of the Queen reminds me of the return of our own lovely, youthful, yet crow ideas queen, Mrs. Cleveland, who, for a time, holds undisputed sway iu the hearts of the American people, simply as the JK-O ple's own daughter, who has become the tlrst "Lady of the Land." From her im proved appearance, bright cheerful maimer and conversation far more so than usual— it seems Mrs. Clevalaud has immensely en joyed the brief respite from the duties im posed on her at the White House. In fact she takes the public into her confidence, and informs them of the plans of the Presi dent and herself for the remainder of the summer. She says that she will probably lie able to visit some Michigan friends when the President goes to St. Louis, after which they will lxitli extend the trip to Kansas City, Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit, Grand ltapids and jicrhaps other Western Cities. The printers of Washington are exercised because the Commissioners, acting under the law which authorizes them to let it to the lowest bidder, have given the District printing contract to a Philadelphia firm. The Printers Union have taken up the mat ter and there is a prospect of much undlg natiou, as it will take SIO,OOO out of the hands of the Printers here, and throw a number of them out of employment; at least 50 per cent was saved on the contract. A special officer of the Pension liureau arrested in Va., the other day several per sons, who in conclusion with an old blind soldier, swindled the Government of 000 in pension money. Such frauds are al ways vain, because the Government inva riably overhauls the offenders and inflicts punishment commensurate with the enor mity of the crime. It is better to swindle one's own neighbor than your vigilant and relentless Uncle Sam, who never forgives nor forgets offenses. To give you an idea of the strict disci pline of the Washington police, l will mention that one of the force has been dismissed from office for plucking a magnolia blossom from the Capitol grounds. This looks hard but it is just for these guardians of the city have no right iu the smallest particular, to betrav the trust reposed in them. Within the past week so many prominent Democratic Statesmen have arrived in this city that there are those who think an im portant conference on party policy is pend ing and that it will be followed by good re sults, all of which I hope is really true. The fact that Secretary Fairchild ordered by telegraph the prepayment or the July interest on bonds, amounting to about ?!>,- 000,000, caused some alarm in financial cir cles, when considered with reference to re cent monetary disasters in New York, Cin cinnati & Chicago, but the Secretary ex plains his action by saying that it was not due to any apprehensions about the finan cial situation; the interest being due July Ist, and the cheeks made out, the Depart ment was put to no inconvenience ami the affect, he believed, would be reassuring.

Between SOO and 900 men employed in the five departments of the Atlantic Oil Refinery, at Point Breeze, are now on a strike. At noon yesterday they quit work, marched to the pay window and were paid off. The strike of all the departments was occasioned through sympathy with the troubles of the slillmen. The trouble began last Wednesday among the still cleaners, who number twenty. The men object ed to the firm's employing Hungarians and presented a bill of grievance to tiie firm, with tlie alternative that if the requests were not acceded to all would go out. The men all went out. Most of them are non union men. The Atlantic HubbcrCompany Untitl ing Destroyed—Loss $40,000. ELIZABETH, N.

In the awful tragedy of to-day three men were instantly Killed. One died at noon, and three others are so badly injured that it is thought they will not recover.

Tlie Kx-Lletemuit-Governor Talks About National Polities. NEW YORK. June 20. Ex-Lieute nant-Governor Chauneey F. Black of Pennsylvania, is at the New York ho tel. To a reporter he said: "I cannot make any prediction. 1 will say this though, about tlie part Pennsylva nia will take at the democratic national couvention in 18S8. It will go there witli more haitnony and uuity than for a long time j>ast, and the result will be that the candidate tiominateJ will re ceive a l.u ger vote in the stale than any democratic nominee since 1850.

Singular Habits and Appetite of|an Animal Out ill llielilgan. HILLSDALE, Mich , June 20.—Silas Snort living five miles from this city,on a farm, owns a horse quite as uncom mon,as horses go. as its master's name. The horse delight 9in such morsels as spring chickens,rats,mice and flies, and is not averse to fat rats when it can catch one. On a lecent occasion the horse attacked a half-grown hog that had strayed into his flesh-loving horse ship's pasture. He is a very intelligent au<mal, showing remarkable reasoning faculties in his methood of catching rais. On seeing a rat disappear in a ! hole, the horse approaches the hole quietly, lies down at full length and places his rose a fen* inches from the 1 hole, so that when he opens his mouth ! and lets his tongue hang it comes quite close to the hole's mouth. There he lies and waits for hours sometimes. The ro dent is supposed to be Anally attracted I out by the smell of the horses tongue, only to be snapped up like lightening | and devouted. Sometimes while rat 'catching the outstretched tongue be comes covered with flits, when tlie 1 horse will withdraw tlie tongue and swallow the mouthful of blue-bottles as a stimulator to his appetite. Tin horse recently snapped off a boy's mid die finger, and is considered dangerous to feed, but is otherwise a docile and well behaved animal. Joseph Snowden's Way of Doing H. BEDFORD, Pa., June 27.—Joseph Snowden was appointed a justice of (lie peace by Governor Beaver for Wood berry township, this county, because it is said qpbody else wanted the place. He has been a staunch republican and assumed to be a politician, and he wanted to be the candidate of his paily for Bbeiiff. Being the committeman from his township it devolved him to make the hoard for ihe primary election on .lur.e 18. lie wanted to make things solid for Joseph and lie ap pointed two clerks. One of the latter said that the law rrquiied time men on the board, but Snowden said he would help, and adininistertd the oath tothe cleiks. While serving in this capacity lie lost his chai ce, tx cause one of tlie cl"rks was against him for sheriff, and dining the count Snowden was detected iu slipping tickets out of the pile which had leen read and re corded and tianding them back to the cleik as tickets just taken from tlie box. These tickets had his name on Night came on, but Snowden would not allow a light. When completed tlie votes counted did not compare with the tally sheet. Bassler, one of the clerks, then chaiged Snowden with fraud and asked him to return tlie tickets which he put in his pockets Snowden denied emphatically that he had taken any of the tickets. While ths diScussion was going on Snowden dropped a handful of tickets behind him on the lloor. Tlie two young men instituted a search and found all of the tickets but four,and a recount defeated the Snowden delegates by a decided ma jority. The two clerks lodged informa tion against Snowden charging him with violation of the election laws. Joseph was ambitious and wanted the convention to make him a delegate to tlie state convention for vindication, but lie was knocked clean out all a rou nd. —Druggists as a rule are extremely jealous and careful of the honor of their profession,and are.loth to praise a med icine which they do not from personal knowledge know to be a meritorious article.
