the friends of Oenend Irwin , in or

show that this story is untrue. The

On the receipt of the news in titzt

State Treasurer, on last Wednesday
evening, quite' an excitement pre

• The people of New Brighton and
vicinity,Withoutdistinction of party,
were similarly affected; and, since
then, their gratiflattion has manifest
ed itself in cheers, the firing of cannon
and illumination of their dwellings.

the people over a -baud of the boldest
corruptionists that ever cursed this or
any other State.
On last Wednesday evening, when
it became known in Beaver that Gen.
Irwin was elected State Treasurer, 0.

the Radical, declared to several per
sons that it was Quay's influence that
had done it 1 He Atatiml distinctly

attention of Mr. Mackey is particu
larly called to Mr. Wharton's state
ment. The former might do a worse
net than to give the matter his special
attention.

wrote to a person in this town, that
the belief that the Democrats in the
LegislatUre would vote for General
.1 rwin, for Treasurer, would avail him
but little, "for," tuffif he, in substance:
"Mackey will get 11 .4 many Democrat

A friend at Harrisburg says that
during the time occupied in taking
the third vote on State Treasurer,
the Muckeyites rushed up and down
the Hall offering $2.0,000 for four
Democratic votes for their favorite.
They failed to get them. Result:

Such testimony as this is overwhel

settled belief and fixed will of the
people.
The Case of Mr. Cooke.
As the ReV. Horace Cooke's recent
elopement with a young woman of
his congregation Is Jest now attract
ing considerable attention, we will
state the facts as steminetly as possible.
Me was a Methodist preacher of good
repute for piety, learning and elo
quence; had charge of a large congre
gation by *hem he 'was reverenced
and respected. One day, week before
last, ho left his wife and two children
and eloped with a Mist Johnson-:-
about seventeen years of age, very
beautiful and amimplished, and the
daughter of one of the most wealthy
membels of his congregation,—and,
as no traces of them could be found,
It was supposed they had sailed for
Europe. On Thursday, evening last
he returned to tke city uud restored
Mbe Johnston te her parents, as he.
alleges, "pure us when taken away."
Ills subsequent conduct proved him
inane, nod lie has accordingly been
placed in an asylum. The txxitslini
was seized upon by some.of the sen
sational Papers, to publish all man
ner of falsehoods relative to the for
meecharacter of the unfortunate di
vine for chastity. We therefore draw
upon The New York 2i•ibune for the
following strictures on this feature of
the scandal, premising that we fully
endorse them : ,
"A few days ago the public Was,
shocked with the announcement that
a married clergyman. in witxl stand
ing, had eloped with a young mem
ber of his flock. • Over such a story of
shame the journalist ought to have
been glad to draw a veil as quickly
as his duty to the community would
permit. But it was seized upon by
one or two sensational newspapers us
the foundation for a piquant chroni
cle of scandal; It MIS embroidered
and elaborated with a hundred.pru
rient details; the slums of society
were raked for more filth to east upon
the disgraced minister;' the lying
gossips who are always ready with
slanderous anecdotes of the fallen
were invited to pour their vile tales ,
into the hospitable '<shunts of Thr
New York Sewer and The !toady
Journal. Cooke was supposed to have
gone to , Europe, where he could not
answer, at any retell° was an outlaw
and a criminal, and it is generally
safe to kick such menr alter they are
down.. So one of our cotemporaries
published a fictitious history of the
Rev. Horace COoke, showing him to
have been a hypocrite and a poofil
gate for years., the destroyer of house
holds in every parish which had held
him,a freqeenter of houses of fame,
a noted seducer of women. No crime
was too vile for him to commit: ono
might almost say there was no crime
of lust which he had not aireadycom 7
mitted. While the editor of this
shameful collection of libels is con
gratulating hinriself upon the success
of his sensation he is suddenly con
fronter) with his victim. There is an
assault—or the fareb of one—tlie po
lice are called in, the clergymen goes
to the lock up; the editor goes to,
and begs his brother journalists to
keep his name out of their reports,
because hedoes not want to be mixed
up many scandals. . It.seemslo us
that natural desire came rather late.
" We have no apology to offer for
the Rev. Mr, Cooke. His crime (if
he was sane) 'was an awful one; his
assault upon an editor. was an aggra
vation of 4t. But the meanest erhn
inal has the right to just treatment,
and is entitled to - redress when he is
wronged. Mr. Cooke has been wrong
ed by the publication of a series of
falsehoods respecting his farmer life.
He had no right to take redress into
his own hands--but .where Was his
remedy? How, many would not
have done the Kane thing—only done
it- with a little more vigor? A yous-
eeution for libel in such a case would
of course have been ridiculous. The
Rev. Horace Cooke could not go into
Court with an action for damages in
his present situation; and besides it is
well understood that suing newspa
pers for libel is an unprofltubleamuse
went. The consequence Is that noth
ng run retrain a licentious press now
days but the pressure of public senti
ment, or -the fear of the cowhide."
Gen. Banks has informed the Fore
ign pommittee of the Home ,that he

the Cubans are ns able now to awry

We see no sufficient reason to believe
thecontrary. Gem Cespedeslaments
his want of powder; but the Sixan
intkls. have not been able of late to
claim any victories, while the cam
paign of the Cubans in the Eastern
Department of the island has been
unusually active and sucefful. The
statement- that the Spaniards have
-10,000 troops, independent of as many
more volunteers, contras& oddly
with the report of Gen. , Valmaseda
that he has less than 2,000, and with
the fact that Geo. Puello has moved
upon Guaimaro with but 3,000. Ev

I have read with carefultattematiod
the views of W. W. Reed, Esq.; sW
perintendent• of the (PennSylyanitti'
Erie canal, published firths Erie Die
patch and republished' in the amt.
mcreialofJan. 3d, relating rapeehillY,
to the Hegira& of water supply for the
proposed enlarrged canal between
Pittsburgh and Erie, and a number
of gentlemen . conneeted with the coal
and shipping interests of this city,
have requested me to give them my,
opinion of the for publication,
with any views of. my own which
may beappropriate at this juncture
when an effort is about to be made to
establish a ship canal between the
head of the Ohio and Lake Erie.
Some of our citizens will recollect
that in the fall of 1867, I was called
upon by the Erie, Canal Oampany
through their Superintendent, Mr.
W. W. • Reed, to make a thorough
examinationat the said canal in 'View
of its proposed enlargement,' which
was nude in company with Mr. Reed
and a. report submitted, dated Dec.
2.3 d, 1867, which was published by
the Company et the time. It is known
also to many persons here that I was
be principal , engineer in the service
of the State en gad In the constree
tion of the canal and all appendages,
including its feeder from French
creek, from 1839 till 1841, and that
afterwards, when the State transfer
red the works to the Eriethnal Com
pany. they were completed and put
in use in 1845 under my direction as
their Chief Engineer. •
The matter of water supply being
vital in connection with canals, it re
ceived my• particular' attention in
18:21, when after studying the meas
urement and views of engineers who
had preceded me In the same lino of
investigation,! and after mseowu per
sonal examination I lead() my first
report to thel Omni Onnmladoners,
proving to the satisfaction of all par
ties then interested, that there was an'
abundance of water available in
French• creek for the !supply of the
(anal.
Mr. Reed, in his excellent paper
above referred to, 'sets forth clearly
the reason why they resorted to the
construction of a strati lift lock •on
the summit, in order to • have a con
stant full depth of water pumped
from the Conneaut reservoir. It was
because the Company had never cut
down the summit level to the depth
originally ph:mm.4 I concur ln opin
ion with Mr Reed, from a perfect
familiarity with the ground and with
the question that it Is entirely prime-
Ramble to &edge the summit, say
seven feet lower than it is now, and
to maintain it at that depth. With
the canal completed throughout as
originally designed, with the enlarg
ed alio oilocks and canal as now pro
pasal, there is an ample supply of
water available for the of a
constant succession of boats in both
directions, or one hundred and forty-,
four boats every twenty-four hours,'
with locks one hundred and thirty
feet by twenty. feet chambers, and an
average of seven feet lift.' s
These locks, with seven feet depth
of water i n tliecanal, will have suffi
cient capacity to pass boats carrying
three hundred and fifty, or more,
tons; but assuming for a perfectly
safe calculation that they should in
practice carry on mum average but two
hundred and fifty tons each, it would
give 36,000 tons per day, and for two'
hundred and fifty boating days, 9,000-
000 tons, an enormous tonnage, on
of which would be a magnifi
cent trride: ' •
Mr. Reed, who has been the super
intendent ofthe canal for eleven years
and ; who has during that year paid
the eloseetittention to the water sup
ply, state! that, for the dryest month
n the last four years, during which
time he has had perfect means of as
certaining the quantity actually used
for leakage and evaporation has not
averaged over 5,000,000 cubic feet per
day. This is not thery, but work
ing experience. ,
it is very gratifying to know this
filet, since-it proves. in the most prac
tical way, that lime calculation of the
loss from evaporation and leakage,
as given in my report of 1839, name
ly, 6,192,000 cubic feet per day, was
not only safe, hut it has been more
than sustained in practice the loss
by leakage and, evaporation on the
canal fed from, the summit having
been during the dryest month, 792,0181
cubic feet per day has than was orig
inally estimated.
Mr. Reed, in his paper now under
consideration, adds one fifth to the
daily has from evaporation and
leakage for an enlarged canal, and
knowing all the circumstances per
fectly, 1 regard this as liberal and
ample. This allows for the leakage
and evaporation 6,4140,000 cubic feet
per day.
The lockage water for the passage
of 144 boats, In actual practice, where
so many would Ame passing as herein
assumed, would not be equivalent to
one loekful for each boat, because it
must uetassary be in such a trade
that In most C 1186; as ono boat passed
out another from tine opposite direc
tion would paSs in, thus melding
the lock only Once in pas s ing two
boats; but taking the very liberal
and perfectly safe allowance of Mr.
Reed, of a lockful for each of the 144
boats the enlarged •locks being 130 by
20 feet, and averaging. 7 feet
there would be 18,200 Tor one lockage
and 2,6A800 for, 141 boats; then as
suming further that every boat
should pear iqto!and outof the sum
mit level, and that each. should use
two lockfuls the quantity would be
as Mr. Reed shims, 5,241,600 cubic
feet, which added to the leakage and
evaporation, 6;480,000 cubic feet,
makes 11,721,600 cubic feet per day.
Mr Reed states that the lowest
measunueut of ;the flow of French
creek during thepasteleven years was,
over 15,000,000 ; cubic feet per day,
which corresponds sufficiently with'
my former mea S urruents, to satisfy
me that there is never any month in
the year when the flow in French
creek at Beinus'S date averages has
than 15,000,000 Cubic. feet per day.
The measurement I caused to he made
in 1867 gave 17,766,000 cubic feet but
allowing no more than 15,000,000
cubic feet for twenty-four hours, even
with time immense tonnage assumed,
(9,000,000 tons in ' 250 days) there
would remain a ;daily surplus of 3,
278,400 cubic feet, and this may prep
erly be regarded as the result deriv
ed only from !experience. With
Conneaut Lake and the Pymatun
ing reservoir arranged as .real auxil-
Wrier, •as indicated. the supply of
water for the proposal enlarged ca
nal will, in my opinion, be more
than adequate for the acconnoda
tionsof the vast nmount of tonnage
mentioned; and should double the
amount be required at some distant
period in the future, it can be secured
at moderate tortof reservoirs on the
head waters of French creek, as we
know from long; surveys..
At has been aptly illustrated in Mi.
Reed's paper teat' the consumption
of lockage water for a given amount
of tonnage, is kiss with large boats
than "with small once. • Every one
who has had canal , experience must
beacquainted with this fact.

would be a eßndidate In the joint con
vention of tbetwo Houses, and if his
filen& chose to vote for him :they
were at liberty to do so, the question
assumed another shape, and there
was little•publielaik about it. This
mornit h ylviiis charged a combina

had. effected, and Mackey's ad
hererilit„Wenkbpsy with endevos to
check`lelldh -till there was noth

This I e pemoctatic eau
ens met AY t r. Scott of Columbia
11.4 Chairman, - and nominated Daniel
.0. Barr: of Allegheny, with the un
derstanding that if on the first ballot
n sufficient .nypnbei of Republicans
rejected Mackey!, nomination to in
sure lEO3'B election, should the
Demoeflits vote for him, then Barr
would be dropped on second 'Allot,
and the vote of. the Democratic
members should be given to Irwin.
There was timpposition of uuy ac
count in caucps to this resolution,
which had the warm supportof both
BuckaleW anit-Wallace. Thwe facts
became Whispengl about, end when
the joint- convention .met ut noon
tho excitenfeht was most Intense.
The lobbies mere crowded, and all
the membecikof both houses In their
seats save Billiugfelt of Lancaster.

an election, The excitement was
very great du b cl7 the progress of the
vote, but at I CR3O the Mackey men
lost confidence, as it became evident
that ho coulcl , not command enough
Republicans to carry him through:
The second ballot was oven more
exciting. Wtteb Beck, the first Dern
ocratieSenaWroo the roll, wastulled,
and ho voted far Irwin, the unpalata
ble truth' was, shown to Mackey's
friends that atozubluation had been
made against their candidate. The
interest in•the'4toult became absorb
ing as Democrat, atter Democrat voted
for Irwin. tilben Beaus, of Bucks,
and Brobst, of Berke, renewed their
allegiance tolkwr, the caucus candi
date.' there Was exulting laughter on
the Republiput. side. Before the re
suit was announced, and when it be
tume understood that Irwin lacked
only one vote kf election, Brobst de
sired to change is vote from Barr to
Irwin. Speaker Stinsog decided It
could not be One after the Speaker
had voted. - Vki decision created a
great deal of ukroar, but was finally
acquiesctd in,lathough some of the
majority desired an appeal. The vote
announced showed InVin had sixty
six ; Mackey, sixty-three; Barr two;
Shoemaker one.
It Is town tekthat during the pro
grm of the - t frmembec crossed
from the Republican to the Demo
cratic side, and made certain offers
to a Democrst noted as a
conditional on his remaining faithful
to Barr. A young Democratic ..Scna
tor,Troin the eastern part of the State,
overbearing the offer, said to the wa
vering renmsentative: "Yen sell us
out, will you? If you do I'll knock
your d—d head off," at-the mme
time showing a piece of hickory tire
wood sufficienh to brain an ox, let
alone a Bucks county copperlasul.
The result of the second ballot sat
isfied the Mackey men that their only
hope lay in an adjournment, !tarry
White moved to adjourn to the 2d
Tuesday of Odbiber, but the conven
tion voted on a less remote day, de
feating it by ayes rai, nays 70. Dur
ing the vote, appeals were made to
- the Republican Irwin men to adjourn,
and an arrangement would be made
perfectly satisfactory to them but they
were unsum...ssful, and quitea num
bor of the supporters of Mackey, in
cluding both Speakers voted against
the motion. This seemed, to show
the bolters had the sympathies of
more members than voted directly
for Irwin. The third ballot was
formality, for every one knew how it
would terminate from proceeding in
diattions. When the Sperker an
nounced that Irvin had 70 votes and
Mackey 01, and officially declared the
former elected State Treasurer. there
was a lib rail amount of applause, but
the Speaker checked it. The joint
convention then adjourned, and the
Members returned to their respective
chambers.%
There were no particular exhibi
tions of ill-temper by the defeated
after the result had been declared,
while the successful party refrained
from any jubilant manifestations.
The Senators an 4.. Representatives
whoseparated from their political as
sedans on Obi question, represent
strong Republican, districts, except
Corny, of Lutente, and they are all,
with this exception, and that of the
six members from Lancaster, front
the Western part of the State. They
were sent to Harrisburg to battle for
retrenchment and reform, and to
break up theCatmeron Treasury ring.
Thepursuit of this object !misled them
to reject a Republican caucus nomin
ation, and for this political sin they
exprm themselves cis perfectly will
ing and able to answer to their con
stituents. There is ilbt so much talk
of reading out of theparty as was to
to be expected, possibly owing to the
feet that it is the counties these gen
tlemen represent that make Pennsyl
vania a Republican. State. 1 annex

• Gen: Irwin made a very plain and
explicit statement' to your corres
pondent as to his alleged negotia
tions with the Democrats. ' He says
on Friday last after it was known
é would be a candidate in oppcei
'don td Mi. Mackey, he had an in
tervieiv with Senator Wallace at the
Bolton House at the latter's request.
Wallace said the Democrats were as
anxleas as Irwin's friends to break
up the Cameron TreasurY ring, and
asked ' the General i if a sufficient
number of Republicans would vote
for him to make hiajelection 'certain,
if the Democrats would throw their
votes ;for hint. Mr. Irwin replied
he had assurance that he would get
more Republican votes than he need
ed if the .Democrats would vote for
him. 'Subsequently, Mr. Irwin aqw
Mesars.'l3uelialew and Wallace and
gave them the names_of hLs Repub
lican supporters. This was all that
took pirrm between them, and they
were the only Derhornatic members
Irwin' talked with on the subject,
No pledges were required from Ir
win and none given by hint, and as
far as he knows by any gentleman
supporting him. -Messrs. Buckalew
and Wallace said.the Democrats
wanted a hand in sfnashing the Cam
eron ring, and were willing to unite
with Republicans in supporting a
Republican for State Treasurer to
promote this result. On their rec
ommendation the Democratic caucus
passedthe resolution it did to go for
Irwin 'should the first ballot show he
had the needed Republican strength. -
Outside of politicians hero .the re
sult isiooked on as having very lit
tle brazing ou politics, except in so
far as Politica are connected with and
dependent on the Cameron Treasure
-ling. "That Is the idea of the free'
thinkers on political matters, but of
couTsetntense partizans magnify its
propertions vastly and predict all
manner of evil malts to tire Repub
lican party. Bergner,' of the fele
graph, 'who only got sixty thousand
dollars'out of the State Treasury last
year, and feels sore over the Record
job, says in his paper this evening
that ho has it in the mostpasitive
terms that the the ks which were
given to some
of the
. most promi
nent boltersthave been seen.
The events of to (lay make it toler
able clear that had Huff, of Greens
burgh, the third candidate, remained
in the field, he would have been
notnin ted in caucus over both Ir. ;
win and Mackey. He was here ; to
day, and it was proposed to place
him in Mondhation in theconvention
but he' declined mixing up in the
tight as it stood. A large number of
people attracted hereby the Treasury

Thequmtion of economy was up in

ply the country with cheap iron ?"
—The Democrat does not tell us
why Alabama, &c.,don't supply us
with cheap Iron. Will it? If Iron
can be made in Alabama for $11; per
tun, why is not, our market supplied
from that quarter? If Pennsylvania
asks too much, why don't the other
States named quadruple their product
tilt the- price conies down to a fair,
living rate?
If we were asked why Lake Erie .
was higher than Lake Ontario, we
must answer, Bemuse of the rocky
barrier which separates those Lakes.
Will, The Democrat specify the bar
riet which confines so large a propor
tion of our Iron products to Pennsyl
vania, when Iron can be made so
much cheaper in otherStateswith the
same Thrill - as the Keystone?
If there be one proposition on which
Political Economists are agreed, we
should stay it is this—Capital, linter
prise, Labor, will seek and find the
employment wherein the probability
of recompense is greatest. If Corn
growing or Cotton-growing will pay
ten per mitt, and Iron-smelting but
six, then the former will steadily in
crease, at the expense of the latter, till
an equilibrium of profit is secured ,
and rice versa. If this is n't a law,
what is?—X. Y. Tribune.
