Beaver, Ps., Nov. 15th, 1871.
Tan elections on i rnesdny c4_last
week, resulted substantially as fol-
lows:
The Republicans carried the State
of New s York by aboutls,ooo major
ity. In the City of New York the
Reform, or Anti-Tammany ticket
Was elected by about2s,ooo majority.
The Republicans have both lions* ,
of the Legislature. Tweed, however, . '
is elected Senator from one of the
New York city districts.
Matmehnsetts .elected the whole
Republican ticket by about 15,000
majority. Both branches of the A.S.
&kw bly are overwhelmingly Repub
lican.
New' Jersey seems to have gone
Democratic bralmut 5,000, ;against
the 4,053 Republican majority of last
year. In the Legislature, however,
we have twelve Senators to the Dem
ocrats nine, and thirty-six Assembly
men to their thirty-four—making _a
trifling Republican gain. We have
had a Republican Legislature. and
Democratic' Governor for sometime
In New Jersey.
In Minnesota the Republicans have
as usual swept the State by a hand
some majority, though Austin, the
present Governor, runs behind bis
ticket, on account of personal weak
ness which ittaihed great disfavor to
bia name In the canvass.
As far as heard from Kansas has
gone Republican by an increased ma
jokty.
Illinois has done nobly ; both Re
publican Congressmen are .elected
and the Union, or " Fire-Proof s '
ticket in Chicago is succeaoal by
about 3,000 majority.
Maryland elected a Democratic
Governor and a Democratic State
ticket,•but by. a greatly redUced ma
jority. The Legislature is - also Dern
ocratic, but the Republicans have
elected fifteen members this year, to
one last year.
On the whole, therefore, the Re
publican successes have exceeded the
mos't sanguine expectations, and the
road to victory next year seems al
most entirely unobstructed.-,
THE earn crop of the west,- the
present seqson, has proved the best
harvested for years. In many por
tions of Indiana, lowa,. Mi&souri,
Nebrriska, and Minnesota corn is
offered in the cribs at from ten to
fifteen cents a bushel. In Illinois
and Kentucky the yield has bl.en
beyond all precedent. The wheat
crop has also been very large. In
Europe, on the contrary, there ap
pears to have been a_heavy deficit in
the grain harvests in nearly all coun-'
tries. In England the general falling
off has been variously estimated at
from fifteen to twenty per cent. ;
while in llungary, the Danubian
Principalities, portions of Austria,
and in Southern Russia—all coun
tries that have usually exported
large quantities 01. grain—there has
been a great decrease from the aver
age production.. The ravages of the
potato rot and the cattle disease in
Great Britain will increase the de
mand forgrain and animal food, and
ply nom m any quantity at reasons
able prices, as cheap bacon and pork,
articles extensively consumed , everi,:-
where, are the natural consequence
of cheap corn.
IT is announced that the Hon. A.
K. McClure will be a candidate for
the Itepnblican nomination for State
Senator in the Fourth (Pa.) district,
in place of Connell, deceased. It is
also stated that General Cameron is
violently opimsedtoClure's nom
ination, and is now, urging the Presi
dent to intimate to the Federal of
ficers in that McClure's
nomination must be resisted. We
are inclined to believe that General
Cameron is engaged in the business
here imputed to him; but we cannot
think that the Pre4dent will allow
himself to be used against one of the
most capable men in Pennsylvania,
simply hetsi.use General Cameron- in
sists upon his doing so. Should the
President, however, yield, and order
his subordinates in Philadelphia to
assist In the unmanly work of defeat
ing McClure for the State Senate,
himself, and not the Pennsylvanian
will suffer most, in public estimation,
by the transaction.,

ANNA DICKINSON
Miss Anna E. Dickenson's tirade
against trades unions, delivered here
last Pada, eveningouder the name
of a lecture on "Demagogues and
Workingmen" appears to have pro
duced in this city are effect exactly
the reverse of the one intended; for
there is scarcely one of the leading
newspapers which has not criticised
her in terms strangely in contrast
with the partial tone in which they
have always been accustomed to
speak of her performanew. Sonic
of their articles nave evi need a degree
of careful thought and acquaintance
with the subjects which certainly did
not appear in Miss Anna's fluent,
but exceedingly flippant utterances.
She has iii fact been convicted of
blunders in respect to matters of fact
which; in a person who assumes the.
functions of a public teacher, are
and as to the laws and principles in
volved in-the question she .presume:
to discuss, she is freely accused of an
utter inability to comprehend them.
„ft is quite evident that site has made
great mistake is undertaking to
treat an economic theme, especially
one involving such vast practical in
terests us does the labor question.
Eloquent periods, saucy epigrams
and brilliant flashes of wit may an
swer very well when directed against
no one in particular, or against an
object of general popular dislike. But
I it is indispensable to Miss Anna's
success that her rhetoric should not
be subjected to searching criticism ;
and the fact that she has ventured to
provoke such criticism by, attacking
the dearest interests of so largea por
tion of the people indicates that she
is not only ignorant of, her subject,
but blissfully unconscious of her ig
norance and equally in the dark as
to the general tevel of intelligence
among those who fur the most part
compose her audiences. She might
find more than one intelligent me
chanic in almost any average audi
ence who could not only correct her
on her statements of fad, but could
make very short work with her logic.
Her talent is essentially dramatic,
and she is exceedingly indiscreet in
attempting to dell with questions
in whose treatment she must neces
sarily expose the weakest places in
her intelts:tual armor.
But even her. pitable lack of infor
mation and h'et; feebleness of argu
ment might have been overlooked,
had not the animus of her lecture
been essentially hostile to the entire
working-class movement. This is
looked upon as an evidenee.t.hat she
has deserted the exuse of the pour and
oppressed, for whom in times past
she has uttered such feeling and elo
quent words. It was this apparent
sympathy with the weak and down
trodden, far more than her ability,
which won for her the affection of
the human nubile; and popular as
she has been, it is extremely doubt
ful whether, in this city at least, she
can ever again draw such audiences
as have heretofore welcomed her so
heartily. (JHIEL.
;11A11), OR ERRING WIFE!
The Cincinnati Letter—Another
Phatle or the Story.
In Wednesday's issue we gave a
letter , from an anonymous writer
in Cincinnati, containing the descrip-
Con and paticulars of an interview,
In a den ofinfatny, by a philanthro
pie individual siting himself "R,"
with a beatitiful young woman, who
stated that she had tied from her
home in Pittsburgh to escape
the shame and disgrace of her
downfall.
Yesterday morning another phase
of the story was developed, a gen
tleman from Cincinnati furnishing
the following facts : From the de
scription given of the girl by the
letter, tie was - convinced that the
female in question was his fugitive
wife. Ms statement was `to the
effect that' a short time ago he mar
ried the girt at Remington, on the
Pittsburgh Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railway, and took ber to his home
in Cincinnati. A disagreement took
,place between them and she, in her
,anger left his house and returned to
- her father's. A short time since he
r followed her thither,
but, for some
reason she had left before" he got
there, and her wherebouts was. un
known. In some manner he was led
to believe that she fad taken refuge
In a house of infamy somewhere.
From the description given by this
Cincinnati letter-writer he was con
vinced that ,the inisgqided wife had
entered upon a life of shame in the
city of h'er hUsband's residence. The
unhappy husband took the first train
for Cincinnati. He states that the
date of the Cincinnati letter is only a
little over a week later than the time
of the flight from her fidher,s house,
although she said she had fled six
weeks before. Which of the two
stories is true. If there be truth In
either, is unknown.
TEO{ AVDITOU GicNISIBAL 11,11,1M0.
'IIION.
- The queiltion as to how the place
of Dr;Stantou in the Auditor Genet
ells office is to be filled is a imp
portant one, and we therefore -recur'
to it forlhe purpose of presenting all
the facts and arguments that the dis
cussion of it has produced.
The act act'of 1850, ' c antles iseldih
the Auditor :General is' made eleo;.
tive, does not specify, as the Consti-
Intim dfieli" th6tase comity Of
ficers, that he 'shalt hold. office "for
three years," and - until his successor
is duly qualified, but' simply pro
vides that he shall be elected "every
third year." It further provides
that "he shalt be commissioned by
the Goverpor-;"' that he shall assume
the duties of his office on the first
Tuesday of May following his elec
tion ; that before entering en the du
ties of his office "he shall take the
oaths or affirmations" -required by
the Constitution,
and give ball in the
sum of $5,000. And it further pro
vides that in caseany vacancy should
occur In said office, "by death, resig
nation or otherwise, the same shall
be filled by appointments of the Gov
ernor, and the person so appointed
shall continue in office until the end'
of the term for which his predecessor
was elected."
Several questions here arise 7. First.
—What is necessary to constitute a
man Auditor General ; and second—
What constitutes a "eacomey in said
office?"
The answer to the first question
would seem to be plain :
First—He must be elected by the
people.
Second—He must be commissioned
by the Governor.
Third—He must be sworn, or
"qualified ;" and,
Fourth—He must give bonds for
the faithful performance of the du
ties of his office.
No one, or two, or • three of'these
things.would constitute a man Aud
itor General ; Wilbur are req uisite';
and he cannot berin office "failing
one of them. Could, therefore, the
death of any man who had not filled
ail these conditions, create a vacancy
"in said office ?" Colonel Stanton,
be it - remembered, at the time of his
death, had filled but one of these con
ditions. He had been elected by the
people, but tie had not been commis
sioned the Governor, he had not
been sworn or "qualified," and he
had not given bonds. lie was not,
therefore, at the - time of his death,
Auditor General.
The second ques'tlbn, as to what
constitutes "a vacancy in said office,"
is a little more complicated, but not
difficult of solution. At first blush
it would seem clear that the death of
a man elected to' an office creates a
vacancy in that office, but it does not
follow •, and a little reflection will
show that a man must be in office be
fore his death can create a vacancy in
that office. The Governor's power
of appointment depends , solely upon
the existence of a a racanc,y in said
offiee ; and if it can be established
that the death of Colonel Stanton
does not create such a vacancy, it
follows that the Governor has no
power to appoint.
Fortunately ive have a judicial de
cision which seems to cover the
whole question. It is a decision con
struing Sec. 3 of Article° oftheConstl
tution, which provides for the elec
tion of county officers by the people.
That section provides 'that "vat4an
cies In any of said offices ball be filled
by appointment of the Governor -"
and as Section 3of the Act of 1130,
relating to Auditor General and •
Sttryeyor General, provides that, "in
case any vacancy should occur in
either of said offices, by death, rest" -
'nation, or otherwise, the same shall
be filled by appointment of the Gov
rernor"—words identical in meaning
and purpose with the provision we
have quoted from the Constitution,
.any judicial construction of the for-
Mer will apnly with equal .force to

in 9 BARU, 513,, and was decided by
the Supreme Court, Judge Rogers.
delivering the opinion. It is the case
of Commonwealth exret. Brown vs.
Hanley, and it came up on a writ of
quo warrant°. Hanley was elected
Clerk of the Orphans' Court in Oeto
ber, 1845. to October, 1848, 0.
Brooks was elected to succeed him.
On the ith of November following,
before he had been commissioned or
sworn, Brooks dies!. The Governor
then appointed Brown to till the va-
eaney assumed to have twee created
by brook's death, but .'Hanley re
fused to deliver the °glee to Min,
and the writ a quo warranto was
brought to test the right of the Clov-
ernor to appoint. It vas untended
that the death of Brook's created a
vacancy, and that therefore the Uov
ernor had the right to appoint
Brown.
This, it will he seen, is nimagt n
similar case to that of Dr: Stanton.
The only difference is that Dr. Stan
ton died in the 15th of November
and Brooks on the 7th—a difference
totally immeterial.
In this case the Supreme Court de
cided that the death of a peem elect
ed to fill an (Alice, before he has been
com m issioned and swurn'does not m
ate a Tarancll." Judge Rogers, said:
"The second Tuesday of October;
1848, Oliver Brooks was elected ; * *
but having died the 7th of November
* he never was or could be
q nail II edsto fill the office by taking
the necessary oath or by giving bond
as the law requires."
"The respondent is entitled to hold
until his successor is duly qualified
Was there a successor duly qualified
Is the Point on which the question.
mainly, if not entirely, depends. Be
ing duly qualified unquestionably
means that the successor shall pos
sess every qualification; that he
shall all respects comply with
every requisite before entering on
the duties of the office ; that hi addi
tion to being elected by the qualified
electors, he shall be cominissioned by
the Governor, give bond as required
by law,-and that he shall be bound
by oath or affirmation (vide eighth ar
ticle of the Constitution) to support
the Constitution of the Common
wealth, and to perform the dutics of
the office with fidelity. Until all
these pre-requisitesarecompfied with
by his successor (for if you can dis
pense with one, you can dispense
with ail), the respondent is de jute
as well as de facto, the Clerk of the
Orphans' Court."
"The Constitution (as does the act
of 11:00 in this case) provides not on
ly that the officer shall be elected,
but that he shalt be commissioned by
the Governor. This is conclusive
proof that the election alone does not
constitute Min an officer in a constitu
tional sense. For there may be cases
where the Governor would be bbund
by an imperious sense of duty to
withhold the commission from a per
son duly elected by the qualifiedelec
tors ; as, fur example, in cases of in
sanity developed since the election,
or the conviction of some high crime
or misdemeanor. Where this occurs
—and it is - possible, although not
probable-no person will venture to
contend that the .office ;Is tilled by
election, as the relator contends, so
as to create a vacancy by death."
So far the Court, as to the general
principle that death, before a person
has been sworn into office, does not
create a "vacancy."
The third section of the sixth arti
cle of the Constitutia, which this
-Ilecisloh construes, differs froth the

practically
_limits the term 'of office
of Auditor General to three years,
and makes no provision fur holding
over until a successor Is qualified, al
though it provides that the suc

it will take up this case and• dispose
of it an thobroad principles laid down
In the decision we have quoted from.
I The language-of the act of 1850,
moreover, limits the power of the
Govenor to appoint a successor for
the , unexpired portion!. of 'the term
fora hkh Ma-predecessor - was elec
ted." Dr. Stanton was elected for
the term commencing the first Tues
day of Allsy, 1872;
_but as he has not
beets_ econtnlssened ,or quallfied4.te ,
cannot, In any sense, basalt' to have I
occupied the office, and it is therefore
impossible that, ho conk, be the, pred

cesior in it, awl as the appointee
of the Govenor can servo only for
the -term of his predecessor If clierg i s
no prtdeceasor there can be no tip

The only practical way, then, Is to
adopt the principle laid down in the
Constitution in similar cases—contin
ue the incumbent In office until a
successor is duly qualified.

Affairs in York Countp, 8. C.—The
Innocent Members of the Klan Re
leased—The Participants in the-
Outrages Held for Trial—Orer
whelming Proofs 'if Their Guilt.
YotiKvii.i.F., Nov. 7.—The num
ber of Ku-Klux prisoners now in the
Jail and guard-house in this village
is Hr!, who were all arrested in this
county. Some Who were arrested
under misapprehension have been re
leased, and also a number of men
who were merely inactive members
of the order, and who took no per
sonal part in the criminal acts com
mitted. These have been released to
make room for the more guilty. A
few men are detained as important
witnesses. Between 250 and 309 men
have confessed their connection with
the Klan, and have told all they
know about its performances.. Most
of these have come in from the coun
try of their own accord. Every day
11 crowd of men assemble at the attics.
of the military commandant., who,
with the S. District Attorney, is
constantly occupied in hearing their
voluntary confessions, which are ta
ken verbally by short-hand writers.
The men who have confessed have
nearly all been discharged and Sent
home. A few who have been con
cerned in murder, and in whippings
and torturlngs of a peculiarly brutal
character, have been held for trial.
About 1 2 2,0 men have run away to
rscape arrest. 'Phis is the lowest esti
mate. Many think over three hun
dred have left the county, or are hid
ing In the woods. .
The investigations and confessions
have established the fact that 1•2 ne
groes have been murdered by the
Ku-Klux in York county during the
past yet r, and five of these murders
had not previously came to light.
The victims'hati di.. appeared, but it
was not known what had became of
them. Full details of six elites of
murder, with the names of the men
engaged in them, have been obtained.
In the other six cases the evidence is
not yet complete. A majority of the
then in jail, and or those who have
fled , behtug to the respectable classes,
being worm-lineal men, merchants,
well-to-do farmers, and their sons.
The greater part of them are shown
' by abundant testimony to have been
concerned in- the Ku-Klux crimes.
The poorer classes have. as a rule, re
mained at home and made confes
sions, and in the language of One of
' the city officers "Broadcloth is in
jail, or has run away, and Home
spun has,-been paroled." The pris
oners arin the hands of the mili
tary, and have not yet been turned
over to the U. S. Marshal, as requir
ed by the Ku-Klux law. It is un
derstood that an effort will be' made
`by the lawyers and other prominent
citizens to test the constitutionality
of this law, and also the legality of
the proceedings under it, which are
alleged to have been irregular;
Time Net for Mrs. Wharton's
Ei=l3
The trial of Mrs Wharton, charged
with the murder ofGeneral Ketchum
and others, is definately fixed to take
place at Annapolis on the 4th of De
cember next, and the interest in the
case is consequently again revived.
Applications are already pourink in
on the officials from large numbers
of persons requesting permits to wit
ness the proceedings. The array of
legal counsel on boa' sides Is formi
dable. Mrs. - Wharton has Oust been
transferred from the city jail at Dal
thnore to thejall at Annapolis, where
she will await her trial. She is accom
panied by her daughter, who has so
devotedly attended her and shared
her Incarceration since the day of her
arrest,, never leaving her night or day.
They occupy a nicely furnished room,
situatedover the apartments in which
the sheriff and his family reside, and
which has nothing in its a pearance
to indicate that It Is a 'po On of the

tract:
From the. New Fork !kraal
• • • Women and children are going round,
seeking something to satisfy their hunger, which
there is nothing to supply. No one has provis
ions or money: What provisions there were to
the city are burned or eaten. A few people have
enough for a day or two, not lodger. Provisions
are arriving, bat are distributed as fast as-possi
ble. Twenty dead bodies ha. e been taken to the
station on the North side. At present It is impos
sible to know who they are. As night comes on
the want of gas is keenly felt. There are few can
dies In the city, and no water except what is taken
from the Lake. Great fears of thieves are felt ou
the West side; and General Shethian is atti call
lug for troops from different posts to keep order.
'AU business and work are Susrendod, and every
one Is occupied in obtaining something to eat and
places of shelter. The sufferings on the North
aide are heart rending: Fifty thousand men. wo
men and children are huddled together like so
many animals. seventeen thousand Gannon' and
Irish are praying for relief. Delpless children are
asking tt r bread from heart•broken parents who
know not which way to torn, nor to du. except to
await supplies which must he slow in coming, ss
there la part of the burnt district where it is al
most impossible to travel. Patients had been taken
from beds of sickness to save lives, which were
nearly spent, were all esposed to the rain last
night and the cold raw winds to day. Several
deaths hive occurred at Lincoln Park. Another
night must be spent In Lhicoln - Park and the brick
fields of Division street, and yet another.. Trains
and extras are loaded to their fullest capacity In
taking people away, who hi many icstances have
no Olga to go to, bat 3 , 1 - 3 Cannot stay here, and
each train leaves five tittles as many passengers as
It takes away. The - Ev'ening Journal" got oat
