A number of our citizens are already on the ground, and a great many more, we presume, will be, before Its exercises are brought to a close. Camp meeting services will also com mence at "Fish Pot Hollow," Raccoon township, in this county, on next Wed nesday, August 21st. This is a shady, well-watered locality, and for a quiet, healthful retreat offers unusual attrac tions. A Large boarding tent, under the management of the family of Mr. Springer, will furnish food for those who attend the greeting without taking their own provision with them. Isq.tf Explomilonm of kerosene lamps are frequently produced in the attempt to etinguish them by blowing down the ckipmew. This is a very dangerous practice, and should always be avoided. The desired result will be accomplished tritich more certainly and safely by giv ing a sharp and rather prolonged puff exactly at right angles to the top of the chimney. The draft thus created draws tboAlame away from the wick, when the carbonic acid immediately below the de parting flame also extinguishes the red hot charred end of the wick. Suleide.—A very strange case of sui ride occurred in New Castle about 9 o'clock Thursday evening last, Mr. Enos Linagan, an industrious and respectable citizen of that place went to bed at an early hour on the evening referred to, but shortly aficr retiring, be got up and went out of the house. Soon after he was found in a low chicken coop, hang ing by the neck, but his legs and part of his body were on the ground. Ile was dead. The rash act was doubtless caused by mental aberration.

A 3lysterionn Den lb.—A youn man named Daniel W. Harvey. was found dead in an oil tank, on island Run, near Smith's Ferry last Sunday morning, under rather mysterious cir cumstances, There were but six and a half inches of water in the tank, and it was difficult to understand how the young man lost-his life through mere accident. lie bad previously expressed himself as tired of life, and some are of the opinion that he may have committed suicide. lie had been in the tank, it is supposed, about twenty hours, when found.

It is something of an innora tum no the usual run of things to bare a new form of this old plant, which HPE±IIIII to have been the same old buckwheat for sn many years. This one is said to have a golden hail , but in what tespeeta it, is an improvement does not appear. The buckwheat crop, when the seed has been sown in season, is by no means an unprofitable one, and it is rather remark able that it should have remained so long without any attempt at selecting any varying forms for improvement and whether this particular form proves of mush value or not, the l'omtnissioner has done well in thus calling attention to a neglected but iffiportant crop. Now that a start has been made in the buck wheat direction we shall expect to see the usual excitement in new varieties, The Campaign in Penns Is-a- la.--The Liberal Republican campaign has been formally opened- by the State Committee - 03y the engagement of Prof. Leo Miller, of New York, ono of the ablest campaign speakers during the Lincoln campaign of 1860 and the Grant election in IStIS. 'Prof. Miller speaks at Easton this evening ; at Sharon August; 10; Mercer on 'it e 12th; Meadville 13th ; Franklin 14th; Oil City 15th; Corry 16th Erie 17th ; Washington 19th, and--Beaver Falls on the 20th. The indications are that the people of this State will not have any cause to complain for want of enlightenment as to the issues of the coming contest, the Liberals having engaged the services of Senator Cart Schurz, General N. P Banks, Governor Fenton of New York ' Senator,Tipton, of Nebraska ; Governor Bradford, of Maryland , General Kil patrick, Governor Blair, of Michigan; Senator Trumbull and Governor Pal mer of Illinois, besides a number of able Liberal Republicans of Pennsylvania.— Phil. Post Atig. 8. The Crolis.—Vbat with the severe winter, dry spring, - and wet harvest the wheat crop in this county is pronounced two-thirds loss than a full average. Rut, whilst we have made a short wheat crop, we aro glad to learn that the pros pect for &good corn and potato crop is very cheering. Although , neither of these crops are out of danger, the season thus far has been very favorable to their growth, the hot weather and fine showers Orrain pushing them on with great ra pidity, so that we have ivory reason to hope for a very good yiel&of each. With plenty of corn and potatoes, we shall not so seriously miss the wheat crop. The yield of apples Is large, and poaches promise well. Conferee Ileeting.—The Congres sional Conferees of Washington, Greene, Lawrence and Beaver countie4, after a session of two days, in Pittsburgh, last week, closed their labors by nominating William S., Moore, of Washington Co., on the 60th ballot. Mr. Lienry, we un derstand, advised his friends to with draw his name from the conference, Which was done, when the above result was soca reached. The game has been well played by the ring -masters to have a clear course for Quay's pet, Ratan. Washington was appeased by giving her Congressman and one Assemblyman ; Butter, two As semblymen ; Beaver, one Assemblyman and State Senator—of course, Mr. Henry bad to take a back seat when coming in conflict with Quay's interest in Ratan. A Progrownie of Promises.—lt is said the ''ring manageru" have been busy for some time past ill making out a programme of promises for official posi- tins in this county. The number is said to etubraea about NO names. All the offices for five years abead are to be promised right away, so that the expect ants will go to work now for the "whole ticket." Of course these promises are worth nothing as scores of mutilated "pplitical corpses," can testify who "know how it isthemselves." We have only the names of a few of the now ••prowisiles," but presume our readers will bay° little difilculty in picking out the last olio of them by their great activi ty and furious demonstrations in favor of the whole ticket, before the present campaign progresses far. ROM rr to time, comes along the Au gu.t number of that pure and beautiful ly illustrated home paper—the People's Monthly," Pittsburgh, Pa, This num ber contains seven appropriate illustra tions.

The origin of the Chester county hog is explained. About thirty-five years ago James Jeffries, a ship captain, occu pied a farm on the - forks of the Brandy wide, a few miles from West Chester, after retiring from the seas. His ship used to trade between Liverpool and Wilmington, Del., and on one of these voyages he procured a couple of hogs from nedtdrdshire, :with the view of in troducing them into the county. They were then called the Bedford breed, and have been recognized by Englishmen who were familiar with them about that time in Bedfordshire. At present the. breed of hogs there is not so distinct having boon crossed more or less with others, from this origin they have been generally distributed in Chester and sur rounding counties, and are now known as the Chester county breed. They are pure white. The Conneautville Courier says: About ton o'clock on Tuesday Mr. Lewis Scott, about thirty years of age, While at work in Stratton's steam saw mill at Evansbnrg, Crawford county, met with a horrible death. He was attempting to throw a belt on the pulley on the main sbaft,when his right arm was caught and be was drawn around the shaft, which was making four hundred revolutions per minute, At each revolution ho struck a beam about a foot above the pn Iley,fairly mashing his body to a jelly. The right arm and both legs were torn completely off, one of the legs being thrown some ten feet from the body; the entire back portion of the head was mashed to a pulp, his face, singular to relate, escaping. Ms brains were spat tered over the mill, and pieces of flesh and bones were found many feet from the scene. The remains, when gathered up, presented a most horrible sight, too shocking even for imagination.

Before starting away from home this time, he deposited in the First National Rank, of Birming ham, the sum of 5:1,510 for his wife, and gave the cashier of Bite hank power of at torney to pay her thirty dollars every two weeks. He also directed the cashier to pay the rent of the house occupied by the family and to provide for a year's supply of coal. The President of the hank and the neighbors of the family were summoned as witnesses and enr roborated the defendant's statements fully. Ile was, of course, honorably discharged.—Pitta. Mail Anglo, Sth. People who are such fools as to stake their money on horse races might have their eyes opened a little by reading such a fact as this, which is told of Mr. Har per, the owner of Longfellow, and his white rider, before the race at Long Branch. The old man observed some thing mysterious, but said nothing. Ile telegraphed to Kentucky for the colored boy, who had driven Longfellow before, to be sent immediately to Long Branch. Ile arrived; but not a word was said, and the white rider was dressed for the contest with Harry Bassett. Then the old man told him that he thought the colored. boy could ride better that day than he. The colored boy was dressed in a moment, mounted upon Longfellow, and won the race. And now coma; the conclusion: The white boy was seen by Mr. Harper to have a roll of money, bowing that ho had boon tampered with.

Breaking Jail at Meadville.— \ Sanday evening last, at about eight o'clock, It was. discovered that five pris oners had escaped from the Meadville They effected their escape by sawing ofT the iron bars at one of the gratings in the rear end of the buliding end bend ing them back. They then crawled out and got on the street running along the rear of the jail and so made good their esra We are unable to learn the nitmes of all who escaped, but among them was Williams, who, it will be remembered, stole a horse last May from the stable of NV. T. Neil, esq„ of this city, and was afterwards captured and sent to Mead ville to wait trial. Another of the party was Richards, who robbed a Mr. Groat, Just above the Titusville Driving Park, of $2.50. A boy named Jobn C. Mooney was also of the party. His parents• re aido in this city, and he Was confined for some potty offence, having been led away by bad associates. lie was al way.l before his arrest considered a very trustworthy honest boy, and has certainly made a grave mistake in Joining thektil break era. James Partin, of this city. who was in Jail awaiting trial, on a charge of inoon charism, refused to leave with the rest, ami,slissuaded other prisoners from fol lowing. He is the young, man who was arrested upon suspicion that he attempt ed to set tire to the American House. Up to yesterday afternoon none of the escaped prisoners have been caught, and no extraordinary effort seemed to be making to rearrest them. /crier . PI lIST WEEK Following as ('Dena.—Last night at about midnight, Lieutenant linger, of the Nlayor's Ix:dice, wag passing along Penn I , treet, when be was approached by two young girls who asked him to direct LT them to the Red Lion Hotel. They were evidently strangers, and the Lieutenant questioned them. In answer to his que ries they told him they belonged in Erie, and had come here to visit an aunt, Mrs. (inv. They could not find her, and so were looking fur a phice to, stay all night. They wore well acquainted With one of the star performers of the circus, they said. They gave his name, and stated that they bad gone Le school with him and knew him intimately. They had heard that ho was stopping at the Red Lion, and if they found him, he would take them under hia protection. The officer went with them to the Rod hut the man they Rought was not " •1.•,`.• there. They then went to the Robinson House and mule inquiries: The young man they sought was stopping there, an I was summoned. lie, however, de nied all acquaintance with the girls. He said he bad been introduced to them at Beaver Falls when the circus was exhib- tin there last wool:, but had no further nr•ltutintanco with then, than that. Ho refused to have anything to do with them. They had no money, am] the ho tel authorities refnsed to allow them to stop at the hotel in any ease, as some of their language and actions were not of the best. the ()Mee of the Central Station House. There in view of some rather disorderly conduct in which they indulged it was del!ided to leek them up until this morn ing. A eeordingly they were placed In a eell, and kept there until the Mayor's morning court was over, when they were brought before his Ironer. They told the Mayor the same story that they had told the Lientenar t, saying that they were sisters, and lived in Erie. They gave their ages as fifteen and six teen years, respectively. It 'was asked how they came to Beaver Falls, and also how they came hero without any money . It was replied that their mother gave them money enough to go to Economy to visit an aunt, and they concluded to come on here to visit their other aunt, Mrs. (fray, They cave their residence as Walnut street>, Erie, lint (-mild not Wive the number of their residence. The Mayor decided to telegraph to Erie so that their father could come for them if he wished, and told the girls they would he kept in custody until an an swer was received. This seemed like a rather unpromising prospect to the girls, tine of them ratted Lieut. Hagar to one side and informed him that they had heen Iviaag , that they did not live in Erie at all, hut at New Brighton, and It would he a hopeless wait to wait for nn answer to a dispatch sent to Erie. The girls then confessed that I hey were not sisters, and gave their names, Nilifeb we with hold, and the name and address of their father, They had become infatuated ' with the young man whose name they Lad used, and with the, idea of circus life and had followed the circus here in the hope of obtaining situations in the company. Chief I rwin telegraphed to t h e f a th ers o f the-girls, and in the mean while the two children, (for they ar e scarcely more than children) are kept there in custody until answers to the dis patches are recei (Hr. The Pittsburgh rommerciiii of Friday last adds the following to the above strange Case of infatuation: An accoutithas already been published of the two girls, Annie Young and Liz zte Reed, who ran away from their homes in New Brighton and followed a circus company to thin city. It will be remembered that they were arrested here, and that on Wednesday afternoon they were taken to their homes. Yes terday, strange to say. the two girls are reported to have been seen riding on horseback in East Liberty, where the -circus exhibited. Lieut. Mart Hazen, who, with Lieut. Hager, accompanied the girls to their New Brighton home, from this city, are after them again. Mr. Hazen has but little encouragement in the task, however, for the reason that when he delivered the girls up at New Brighton on Wednesday, ono of their mothers told him that he was. 'the circus follow" who enticed them away, and she know that 'he acted in the Ring." The Lieutenant felt aggrieved at. this accusa tion, and will redouble his efforts to cap ture the runaways. Finally they aceom pan ied the officer to The North Carolina Election— Titne's Changer.—Tho, result of the election in North Carolina is its follows: tho Giant men havo elected their Stip ticket by about 1000 majority, while) the Greeley party havb secured five out of the eight congressmen, and a majori ty in both branches of the State'Legisla'; tore, which gives them , a United States Senator in place of Pool (Grant man) whose term expires March 4, 1873. Four years ago, General Grant carried the State by 12,900 majority, and his Monde confidently expected to be ebb) to carry it on theist of this month by a similar or greater number of votes. Some one, whose name we have not yet ascertained, had apprised Mr. J. L. B. Dawson Esq., the Beaver Falls post: master of the political condition ofthings in North Carolina four years ago, hence two days before the election on the first of this month, we sent a special reporter to that town to interview Mr. D. and if possible to obtain a photograph of that illustrious individual. After many trials and tribulations he succeeded in attain. % ing the desired end, and hero is a faith ful likeness of Mr. I). as he appeared two days before the North Carolina electqui ,bully realizing that time's changes Were worth noting, wo sent the same re porter to Beaver Falls one week alter the North Carolina election, and after a two hour's seareh of the most dilllgent char acter that enterprising man succeeded in unearthing Mr. Dawson, and obtaining a seeond portrait of that popular, inde fatigable, handsbme, clever, genGetrianly °nicht'. if the reader will now turn this paper upside down and take a look at the above efft lie will see what changes time made to Mr. D., in the short spins , of two weeks, and In the meant' nit' hav ing official result. in North Carolina. It will be noticed th9tanguish overspreads his usually placid ermine nance, and our reporter was told while in that locality that Mr. it., was about to, or had already sent out a elreular to his friends, which would read about as fol lows: X ItOADS, nr.AVEn FALLS POS4T AF 11K.

Bounties to Noldlers. _ To the Editors of the Lyeonlioy Sl(tla• lard:—Brit : The article you send me, cut from the Pittsburgh Cuourierriof, is a remarkable specimen of mendacity, concocted upon tho pretense of reciting my record in Congress. I take the first item given in the arti cle for illustration : "December 21, 1 13.—0 n an amend ment, to the Deficiency Appropriation 'that no bounties except such as are now provided by law shall he paid to any person enlisting after the sth day of January next,' Mr. Iluckalew voted Upon this the Commerriat says : "Ho voted against paving bounties to volunteers. He would have deprived the moldier of all bounties because he hated the'cause for which they fought, and wanted to discourage the enlistment Of volunteers. I n fact the hill in question was for an appropriation of twenty millions of dol lars "for the payment of bounties and advance pay" to soldiers, and I was for it heartily and voted for its passage. The record shows that I was present and that the bill passed unanimonsly. The amendment mentioned above, against which I voted, was an amendment to reduce bounties, or to prevent the mili tary authorities front paying more than tie() bounty for each.soldier after sth of January, 1-til, whet eas they were then paying -100 under the President's proc lamation of 17th Qctober, IStia. The President had called for three hundred thousand men and haul promised this large: bounty to all who should c‘unn into the service before the sth of January following, except veterans re-enlisting, who were to receive $10). The amend ment was simply to prevent the Presi dent from paying., or engaging to pay, under any circumstances, more than $lOO in future. I was opposed to this amendment and voted against it, con sidering it to be unwise, unjust and im practica We—unwise because it would discourage the tilling of the army and limit the President's diseretion in case of emergency ; unjust because it would fix different rates of compensation for sol diers of equal merit and serving for equal terms, anti wholly impracticable because !wither the spirit of the country nor the manhood of the soldier would sanction it. I may add that it was not maintained afterwards, for the larger bounties wore voted and paid. For in stance, the Joint Resolution of Janu ary W, IS6I, provided, that the larger bounties should continue to be paid front the sth of January to the Ist of March of that year, and by subsequent legislath the ground taken by toe in my vote of 22d of Det.eanher, was folly assumed and endorsed by Congress. This false imputation which 1 havo ex posed is no more gross and unjust than many others in theartide sent me, but I have taken it because it stands first in order among them and constitutes a tit representative of the whole. c. it.
