Tbo Senatorial Contest.
The fiat of the people of this Senatorial
District has gone forth, and our esteemed
-fellow citizen, Louis W. Hall, is declared
ear Senator elect, by over six hundred
majority. When Mr. Hall’s name was
first mentioned in connection with the of-
' t
fioe, .WO said that if his party was wise, it
woald make him its standard bearer. We
'believed if any man in the Opposition par
ty ;cpnld Carry the district it was he. —
Large as were the odds in favor of the
Pemocratio party .and its candidate, Mr.
Ball took the nomination, believing he
. eonld carry the district, when almost all
his friends here thought there was-scarce a
possibility of ,his doing so. - Blair county
stood nobly by him, and despite the un
fair efforts of interested politicians, in cir
culating false stories in quarters where it
was thougbt they would operate advanta
geously to his opponent, she rolled up the
largest majority ever given to any candi
date, clearly showipg that her people just
ly .appreciated the worth arid merit of one
-of her moist worthy sons. Each district
didl ’so well that it is difficult to say to
which the: party prize is due. Altoona
and Logan township, where Mr. H. is well
known, far exceeded the expectations of
his most sanguine friends, and we can now
eongratqlate the editor of the Ebensburg
Democrat & SetUincl onibe happy effect
,pf .his fiaUering notice of Mr. H., in his
issue a week or two previous to the elec
tion. It is a true saying that “ curses like
ehidkens, always come home to roost,”
and the .editor referred to has doubtless
found it so. But now that the election is
•▼or—the smoke of the battle cleared

Within a shorttime exper
iment has been tried at Wilmington, Del.,
to manufacture gas out of water, but os
there appears to be a diversity of opinion
regarding it, it is hard to decide whether
it was a failure or success. The Wilming
ton papers say that it .was an experiment
made by interested parties in Philadelphia,
that the gas gave a very poor light, and
emitted a horrible smell. This is entirely
contradictory*to the statements of the Phil
adelphia papers. It is said that this gas
was at one time used in several towns in
England, but all gave it up after a brief
trial. It may be chat gas will yet be man
fuctured from water, but like many other
discoveries of a similar character, it will
require several testings to ascertain its de
fects and devise remedies.

Terrible Riot at Harper’s Ferry.
Within the past few (Jays, the whole country
has been startled by the reportthat an insurrec
tion has broken ont at Harper's Ferry, Virgin
ia, apd that it is the work of Negroes and Abo
litionists. From to® many telegraphic reports
with which the daily papers are filled, we con
dense the following account; —
It appears that Jthe insurrectionists are com
manded by a man named Captain Brown, of
Kansas notoriety, and Captain Cook, both of
whom hare been living in that vicinity for some
time past, and that it was the intention of the
party to free all the negroes in Virginia and
Maryland. On Sunday night last, about 9
o’clock the Armory at Harper’s Ferry wps taken
possession of by the insurgents in such a quiet
manner that the citizens new nothing of it un
til the trains on the Baltimore and Ohio R. R.
were stopped.
' Information of the wsurrection was immedi
ately communicated to the Governor of the
State and to the President at Washington. The
letter immediately ordered out ,a company of
ninety-three marines with two twelve-pound
howitzers to proceed tothe scene of insurrection.
Information having also been sent to : Baltimore,
three military companies were immediately or
dered out and proceeded, to the scene.
1 The insurgents had taken several prisoners,
ampng whcm were the Draftsman of the Ar
mory, the Master of the Armyry, the Paymas
ter and a prominent citizen. They had fortified
themselves in the armory’and engine house,
the latter .of which could not be stormed with
cannon for fear of injuring tile prisoners.
Previous to the arrival of the soldiers, Capt.
Cook with a large party of dates, left ,the place
and lore supposed to be moving towards Penn
sylvaaia. On the .arrival of the the
Arjnojy was stormed and captured. Capt
®tvwbbndhis spn were: both shot The latter
was dead and the former dying’ when the dis
patch was forwarded.

The Picjudenthas ordered out a number of
horses bad Wien to pursue the fleeing insurrec-:
tionists (who have te&en to toe mbmrtains,) into
every state and locality where they mayhave
fled. ; v
The Jest dispatch states that there are now
probably a thousand men 1 congregated at .the
Ferry and reinforcements are constantly pour
ing in. Where the matter will end we cannot
at present conjecture. We hope it may be all
over by this time, although the reports give us
o® reason to presume so. Altogether it is one
of the most disgraceful difficulties ever origina
ted in the countiy, and even should it now he
at an end, the valuable lives already sacrificed
is terrible tci contemplate.

Sons of Malta.
The local of the New York Tribune
gives the following history of this new
but now well known order;—
This Order came here from the East. It is
said to be coeval with Masonry, and to have had
its origin in Egypt, the home of those higher
degrees of Masonry only conferred in the work
ings of the “ Rite of Memphis.” Indeed, there
are not wanting those who assert that the cere
monies of the Sons of Malta are but those
sacred mysteries of the Masonic Temple, which
it is well known, are mourned as forever lost
by the members of that fraternity. The mystic
brotherhood of the Sons of Malta has an exist
ence in this city dating back, as an Order, not
quite 2 years. Many of its rites have been prac
ticed here, however, ever since the time of
Peter Stuyvesant and the other old Dutch Gov
ernors. Old Peter himself, it is well known,
was legally the G. R. J. A. of the Dutch Colo
nies in North America for many years, in spite
of the loss of his leg, which rendered him to a
certain extent incapable pf performing the ardu
ous duties pertaining to the office. His misfor
tune rendering him ineligible, he was not re
elected, a courtesy which would otherwise have
been extended to him. He positively refused,
however, to give up to his successor the regalia
and working tools of the position, to which he
had formed a strong attachment. So much re
spect was shown the sturdy old Dutchman by
those high in' authority in the Order, that no
attempt was made to coerce him in the matter;
and history informs, us that all t|ie insignia of
bis office were buried with him. The Eastern
magnates of the Fraternity bearing in mind this
rebellion of their early representatives in
America, have steadily refused to grant work
ing charters to this country till abpat eight years
ago, so that whatever work pertaining to the
Order has been done hero before that time has
been surreptitious, and deserves the reprehen
•sioh of all the true members of the mystery.
When Capt. James Leonard, in the legitimate
performancp of his duty ns member of the
Detective Police, visited the World’s Fair, in
London, in 1851, he made strenuous efforts to
procure a revocation of the prohibition against
the restoration of the Order in this country
He was partially successful, and was appointed
G. E. J. A.; for the United States of America,
with the privilege of re-establishing the Sacred
Mysteries here after a lapse of Seven years.—'
He has done so,' and in the incredibly Short!
space of les than two years the Order has com
prehended more than 80, 000 members. Capt.
Leonard’s duties have been arduous, but he has
v?,-? .devoted to Jiiswork, and us; the'reword of’
his persistent exertions he now! bebohis this
multitudinous offspring. ; j
Wherever the Sons of Malta are known thev
are distinguished for their deeds pf charity and;
love. It is recorded that in all the pities of
Europe, in plague, pestilence, and famine, tbdy
have been ever foremost in the' good work of
rehef. During their short existence in this
country they have won a similar reparation fpr
, ®®tiar philanthropy., ; All their public parades ■
a"nd processions take , place after sunset, and

of charity,-which are all perform
