THE Connecticut Legislature elec
ted Hon. O. S. Ferry to the U. S.
Senate from that State on Tuesday,
the.l4th inst., over General Hawley
the caucus nominee of the Republi
can. party. A sufficient number of
Republicans were found to disregard
party trammels and vote with the
Democrats for General Ferry, who is
a sound.Republican,-and the present
incumbent from that State. He did
good service to his country during
the rebellion.
THE little corporal, when on the
witness stand at Pittsburgh, in the
famous Quay-Conesiercia/-libel suit,
testified that he was worth only ti6,-
.;00. We want to know now if he
did not, a very short time afterwards,
make an affidavit when going on an
official bond, that l e was worth $25,-
000? If this he so, why should his
naked word he taken for anything
he says or prints? Can :my one tell
us?

The Antlussays"he was cou nted in

votes in the borough of Phillipsburg,.
at the primary election, to "count

then secreted or destroyed the tally

"The little Corporal's" pledges are
not worth much. He once pledged
himself to Andrew G. Curtin for
S. Senate, but the evidence of his
broken faith stands on the corner of
the Diamond, from one room of
which weekly issues the medium .
through which he seeks se to de
bauch the Republican party as to he
able still to bleed it, or failing
in that, to destroy its organization.
If the editor of the Radical did not
vote against Arthur Shields he is
sorely belied. It is believed he did
unquestionably vote for Dr. Shur
lock, the fraudulent nominee against
1 ir. Chandler; and for which the
party suksequently rebuked him and
his "ring" by defeating Dr. Shur
lock, as they will do Ratan should
he be nominated.

Five years and a little over have
transpired since the editor of the Rad
ical sold the Senatorship of Pennsyl
vania to Simon Cameron and through
the "political ring" afterwards
organized, procured the election of a
State Treasurer over 3 heavercounty
Republican who had been his bosoni
friend ; and with the proceeds of the
sale and a portion of the interest on
the unexpended balances of the Trea
sury, established the Radical news
paper and instituted a series of move
ments by which he mild' purchase,
wheedle and drive the Republican
party of this county into the support of
dishonest men and dishonest meas
ures. Against these, and to maintain
the._ high standard of Republican
principles the ARacs has labored,
and will continue to labor so long as
corrupt men are nominated and cor
rupt means used to promote their
election.
THE DE-MOM/ad, of the State
of New York, held their State
Conventioo in Rochester, N. Y.,
tail, Wednesday, and adopted a plat
form, teeognizing the changes in
our National - Constitution, and with
out a desire to ri.ipen the question
a the:vast, say they are now ready
to co-operate with those, whatever
their previous party affiliations, who
favor united and localized govern
ments: who seek to restrain the ex
ercise by Congress of absolute and
,general powers; to prevent its enter
ing on general private legislation; to
restrain the growth of vast corpora . -
tions and to work a permanent Civil
Service Reform: In their resotu-
ons they declare that the declara-
tiou of political principles, by the
Convention recently held in Cincin
nati, is evidence of the progreo
public opinion toward sows] and
wholesome views ofgovernment; that
they believe all patriotiecitir ensma y
unite upon that platform fiir the
purpose of restoring an honiNt ad
ministration of national affairs. and
enforcing the obligations of the con
stitution; and they inktructed their
delegates to the Baltimore Conven
f tion tto take the course best calcula
ted to secure the triumph of these
principles., and the selection of any
candidates representing them -tvhe
shall meet the approval of the De
mocracy in National Convention as
sembled.
AND now comes one "W. S. Me
Elhose, operator," who states that
the telegram purporting to have
been sent by Mr. J. S. Rutan to Mr,
M. S. Quay, is not genuine, and that
neither Mr. Dravo, nor the editor ( f
the Attors called upon him to ascer
tain if it was a forgery. We plead
guilty to not calling on MeEthose..
on the ground that we were not
aware of his presence In this vicinity:
and again we did not suppose that
the Besver operator had control of
all the telegraph offices in the vicini
ty. Nor do we believe yet that he
has, and if he haot, how can he
know that the telegram is not genu
ine? The dispatch might have been
written in Beaver, dated at Beaver.
and put upon the wire at Rochester,
New Britetton, or even at Pitts
burgh. However we may safely
conclude that MeEllov,e knows as
much about the transaction as any
other little tiny, and no more; and
we judge the less he meddles with
the local politics of Beaver and vic;n
ity, the more faithfully will he diF
charge the duties which the telegraph
pony sent hint here to perform.
TILE little Corp, and his friend
Intim, produce a column of figures
n the last Radical, to show that the
!onfest for the :sheriffalty lays be
ween Messrs. White, Ihirragh, and
Winter.
The Radical people say th t fig
ures- are obtained from "responsibb
mrties" and are "reliable." Now,
re will be perf ec tly satisfied with
tie nianination of either of the gen-
tieaio above named, but is it just to
Messrs. James Patterson, J. P. Mar
tin, Charles Johnston. U. K. Cham
berlin, J.S. Little, John Boyle, J. W.
D. Smith, and Arthur
,Shielde, to
parade their supposed weakness be
fore the public, just on the eve of the
primary meeting ? Not by any
means, everybody knows it is
only dime now to induce the people
to believe their votes will only be
"thrown away." to give them to
either of the eight candidates above
named. No candidate likes to have
his friends seduced away from him
in this dkreputahle but Ingenious
way, and we will be much tnistaken
if t hvse alleged weak eamlidate. fur
Sheriff,. do no; give Messrs. Quay
and Rutan a Roland fot their Olivtr

ith.. A ri(:us) Indon.ed the Irwln-Mnv_key
\Vhen Curtin was sold to Cameron
it was found necessary to use a large
sum of money to aecomplish Camer
on's triumph in the Legislature.
low this could be accomplished was
planned by the "Great Financier,"
Cameron. In such matters he is so
great a proficient, that the "Old
Commoner," Thaddeus Stevens, de
clared there was no use for him to try
to compete with Cameron for the U . S.
Senate, as "he could buy up thy Penn
sylvania LegHslat tire." lie did so.
He must be reimbursed for his out
lays, and to eff-ct this he must con
trol the State Treasury: As the in
cumbent of that office millid not he
manipulated in his interest, it was
fixed by the "ring" in '69 that-Gen.
Irwin should he ousted and it. W.
Mackey—a ring mati—elected. This
programme suceeedeil, he was OKA
ed, and the interest on the unex pen-
duet balances of the puhllc money du
ly shared among the ring leaders.
C.oneron knew how to take care of
his money matters; and Mackey had
to foot the bill. Another term of
of for Mackey was thought essen
tial to make it a good thing for him,
and he was put forward by the plun
derers as candidate fur State Treasu
rer.. Meantime, some of the lioneq
Republicans of the Senate thougl,t,
proper to cry "halt," in this whole
sale game of manipulating and selling
offices of emolument for selfish and.
partizan aims, mid squandering, th
public treasure in individual aggr;
dizement. They united with the
Democrats auff'eleeteil tarn. Irwin

against the system of political cor
ruption above exhibited. The Rad
ical defends and upholds it. Judge

Republican party.
MIL Rt • T,tx, We presume; pro
fesses to be a public economist. He
took. a: we are informed, three per
sons from this county- last winter tit
Harrisburg. They were as fidlows:
J. IL Harrah. ".ii.ferk to apportion
ment conimiltc, and charge of
Speaker's rooni-fl' 7 J. B. Vance, .pas
ter and folder,'; and 11. W. Nelson,
!ulster and folder. Mr. Harrill drew
from the State Treasury one thous
and dollars foehis "services." and
the other tu* drew nine hundred
dollars each for their "services."
Now give to e-a•h county in the State
the same nutnbor of room keepers
and !tasters anti folders at li rrisbu rg

Legislature la - it winter. Thes4., at a
salary s'toooa - -Sch would filch from
the pockets ofjhe people, about $175,
000 in the short-space of three months.
Of course it will be clainfed that there
were not so miipy irregular employ
and that ;Beaver county had
more than its share of th sc who
were there laay. winter. Very well,
but that don't' help Mr. Rutan any,
for it only shoWs, that he had less re
gard for the ;people's interest and
was more anxious to plunder the
guite treasuryi i than any of his col
leagues. Of cour,v, we wish it un
derstood, thatX there is any legiti:

Harrisburg during our legislative
sessions, we Would prefer to see Bea

which their shanteless triekery,has
aroused, are just now lustily shout

sham, of crying out "stop thief" so
long used by the "trade" to divert
the attention of the detective from
the trail. it will be admitted, in or
der to break up these infatnons rings
which are nestling in and around al
most every county seat of this Com
monwealih, deriving their inflows
and vitality from the great Arch
Ring Master Simon Cameron, there
must be counter combinations, but,
if when these "Rings," now so odi
ous to honest Repo blicans,are broken
up, which they will surely be, lftheae
combinations continue, then they In
turn must be broken up also., A sin
gle illustration will make our mean
ing plain—Frequently a ring of horse
thieves will so overawe a communi
ty and so defy the legal authorities
as to make the organization of Vigi
lant Committees a arc Asily; but, if,
after hanging the thieves and break
ing up the ring, the Vigilant Com
mittee should seek to perpetuate its
rule it would Justly become offensive
and would have to lie put down by
a stronger power than the local au

Mica! rings that are robbing the pen

estates of widows and orphans, giv

HORRIBLE MASSACRE!
Sh4l, :ealped, and Thawed.— Battle
H'ith the Fiends:— nem/lbw Detalhe
A report has been received at, the
NVar Department, gifing details of a
massacre by Indians, Mexicans anti
negrm.4 comhined,of persons in charge
of a train ol supplies en route to Fort
Stockton, at Howard's Well, near
old Fort Lancaster. The facts as re
ported to General Auger by ('ol. Mer
ritt of the Ninth Cavalry, under date
of April '29, front Clark are given as
follows: Ou ti .)oth instant I arrived .
with the cavalry of Illy command at
Howard's Well, a fete hours too late
to prey, ti one of the most horrible
liressacreS that hie , ever iwell perpe
trated tat this frontier. A MeNte.ol
train loadell with United States coin
missarY and ordnance store, , , on its
way front San Antonio to Fort statek.
I ton, was attacked by Indians plun
dered and burned. All the tie pie
with the train,seventeen souls in all,
were either killed or wtifinded,except
I t
one woman. My command buried
It level) bodies and brought three
wounded mon and one \corn= into
ti n s ! ,o-t. Before arriving at the
burning train, the first intimation
we had of the horrible disaster was
the charred anal blackened corpses of
!some of the poor victims, but no one
was alive 'to tell the horrors of the
affair. I supposed up to this time
I that Captain Sheridan, ‘‘ It h the in
lautry tartly mminand, wits in camp
at H o ward's ahoUt a mile front
t lin scene of the massacre. and while
et some distance fromilie polnt,the
stoke of the burning wagons, lois
tak,ni for his nom) tires, confirmed
me in this belief. I knew at It ast that
a sergeant and four men were at the
well in charge of forage. The com
mand moved rapidly toward the
well, when the sergeant In charge of
the detachment at that point was met

dians had taken with the animals

than it takes, to tell it the trail was

that night. Captain Cooney was
though not seriously, in

remounted and retained his cum

they squaritieroil their atruntinitiot
'l'he lack of ammunition made a pro
tracted pursuit of the Indians illi
practical,:e. A woman who escaped
reports that six were killed in the
tight. Words fail :o convey an idea
of the sickening atrocities committed
by the demons who overpowered the
t,-tin men. Several of them were
hi ken alive, tied to wagons and
tainted. An obi woman was carried
ante distanre Irma the place of at
tack, and then shot and scalped.
Her grand-child had its cars cut off,
was shot, and had its bruins smashed
out; while her daughter, the mother
of the child, who witnessed also the
death of her husband, was carried oil
by the fiends. More than one poor
wretch crawled front burning wag
ons, after the ropes which bound
them had burned off only to burn
too blackened, unrecognizAble mass
es, with their charred hands and fa
ctts raised in position s of entreaty.
The train bud nine men with it.
Ttie remainder of the party were
women and children. It is feared
one Wolll2tll was taken away by the
band. ' though it is possible that she
as well as the other body unaccount
ed for was burned to ashes with the
wagons. It is reported that the band
consisted of from one hundred and
twenty-live to one hundred and fifty
men, and was composed of Indians,
Mexicans and deserters front the
army. At number of arms and sup
plies of ammunition were taken from
the train by the band before burn
tag it. How many arms I (=not
I say. It was the supply which was
I haely sent from the arsenal at San
lAntonia to Fort Stockton.
,
General Augur, In this report,
expresses the opinion that the Jo
(bans carne from Mexico, and this

The Miners' Strike—Leaderd Arrest.;
ed and Rescued.
DETROIT, hiuL y IG.—lnformation
received from Houghton last night
relPirding tho strike in the copper
lames states that on Thursday morn
ing it portion of the workmen .were
satisfied with the terms offered by
the mining Superintendents, and do-.
Oared their wish Logo to work again.
Upon proceeding to do volley were'
interfered with. The Sheriff being
notified, he summoned one hundred
special deputies from among the cit
izens Of Hancock - and libugh ton to
protect the workmen. Four of the
waders in toe strike were arrested
and placed under an armed guard t f
di X lAA.II to take them to jail at Hough
ton, thirteen miles distant. The dis
content( d miners rallied and started
alter Hie sheriff. When one mile
from Calumet six hundred armed
strikers rescued the prisoners. The
Sheriffs force, being so largely otit
numbered, yielded the prisoners at
the deinatal of the strikers, who
made many threats in mise they
were Interfered with, but injured
none.
Many women Joined in the attack
on the guards. A meeting of the
strikers was held on Tuesday after
noon. A few were In favor of re
smiling work, believing all they
could reasonably :Ist: for had been
_complied with by the mining Super
intendents. The majority thought
otherwise, and decided tail to work
except under the eight hour rule.
They are all satisfied with the wages
offered.
The arrival a the troops is unx
tously awaited. The expectation of j
their presence MI soon 41aZ4 alr tidy
had r•I )111e t first at tirh Mien% ft,
Frnklin, (Olney, and the Pewabie
wines- Some meu have returned to
their work, and as far as heard from
have not been Interfered with. ,A
few are elamorGus and inclined to
noisterotts talk.. As a rule the stri
kers are imiet but tirm in their de
mands. Their leaders comsel tem
perance and sobriety, which up 10
the present time. has not been In
fringed, and no injury has liven done
to property. The total nt m'ivr of
persons now engaged in ll.e strike
and will not work themselves, or
permit others to do so, is two thous
and. The troops are expected to
reach Houghton or morrow ,and it is
supposed that the moral effect of
their presence will he sutii2ient to re
store order and obedience to the. le
gal authorities. A number of miners
are on their way, having been previ
ously employed to work in the
mines. The on ly danger apprehend
ed now, is that they may oe inter
fered with by discontented strikers.
Mr..kossiz, President of the Calu
met and Heela mines, has left De

turbance on Friday.
Terrific Mountain Fire% in the
Neighborhood of Toby haulm.
ScitANToN, May 16. A person,
returned from the scene of the
territic mountain tires in the neigh-
Ilia al of Tohylianna, reports that the
village is entirely surrounded by
tire. On Wedtm,day it swept up
within a short distance of the saw
will, where thousands of feet of
Mother were piled up. The villa
gers mustered all their force, and
while an engine front Struudshourg
kept the lumber and ground wet
around the mills, the villagers beat
hack the tire until they got it under
control. Ihi it not been tur a
swamp, intervening' bet ween the
town and the tire, there is no doubt
but that the whole town of Tohyhan
nu v.. llt i have been destroyed.

was extinguished before much daw•
age was done. ()tiler buildings were

1 resp«.tfully invite the attention of
the •leinite to the prop(*ed ttclesul -
milted by the British Government
with the object of removing the
ferenevs which seem to threaten the
proms eutiou of the arbitration, and
yequest-an expression by the Senive
of their disposition in regard to ad
vising and consenting to the formal
adoption of an article such as is pro
posed tly the British Government.
fi►e Senate is aware that the ctin►sult
ation with that body in advance Of
entering Into agreements with for
eign States has many premslents. In
the early days of the Republic, Gen
al Washington repeatelly asked their
advice upon pending questions with
such poiA ers. The most important
precedent is that of the Oregon Roun
clary Treaty iii iS 16. The import
mince of the results hanging upon the
present state of the Trea4 with
Great Britain leads me V) follow
these former precedents, and to d► -

The New York Tribune of May 15,

"A CARD.—The Tribune has ceased
to he a party organ, but the unex
pected nomination of its editor at
Cincinnati seems to involve it in
new embarrassment. All must be
aware the position of a Journalist,
who is nt the same time a candidate,
is at least irksome and difficult, that
he is fettered in action and restrained
In criticism by the knowledge that
whatever he may say or do is closely
scanned by thousanar, eager to find
in it what may be interpreted sons to
annoy or perplex those who are sup
porting him as a candidate, and to
whom his shackled condition will
not permit him to be serviceable.
The undersigned, therefore, with

of the Tribune, and will henceforth,
until further notice, exercise no con
