OUR readers are, no doubt, ere this
apprised Of the result of the election
on the sth inst. General Grant re
ceived the voters of :11. States,_ giving
him 301 electoral votes, and Greeley
received the voters of 6- States, hav
ing .62 electoral votes. The States
voting for Grant were Alabama, Ar
kansas, California, Connecticut., Del
aware, Florida, Illinois, Indiana,
lowa. Kansas, Maine. Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota,
Nehritska,Nevada, New-Hrtnipsitire,
New-Jersey. New-York, North Car
olina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania.
Ithode Island, Sonth Carolina, Ten
nessee, Vermont, Virginia; and Wis
consin. The States voting for Gree
ley were Georgia, Kentucky, .Louis
iana, Maryland, Missouri and Texas.
This result, though not in so sweep
ing a form, has for some weeks past
been apparent to almost everybody.
In fact the October elections "wok
the starch right out" of Mr. Greeley's
supporters,not only in Pennsylvania,
but it seems everywhere else. After
the elections referred to little interest
was taken anywhere in the tigbt,and
the rani: and file of the democracy
never having had a very tender pas
siou for Mr. Greeley,measumbly suf
fered the November election to go by
default. On the theory, ttTeu, that
the sparrows never fall without the
direct supervision of Di vine --Provi
dence, it is fair to assume that the re
sult attained is the best for all
concerned. At all events it must
be accepted as such, and instead of
whining or repining, it is the part of
gcod citizenship gracefully to ac
quiesce in the will of the majority,
take what good there is in the event
and point out in the future turd urge
the adoption of the reforms contend
ed for by the defeated party. This
at least shall be our course.
GENERAL GEORUE G. MEADE, the
distinguished soldier and former com
mander of the Arms of the Potomac,
died at_Philadelphia on Tast Wednes
day. His age at the time of his death
was 59years. During the first years
of the war he was not one of -our
prominent General's, but he arose to
rank and distinction gradually, and

which resulted in the defeat and
death of Reynolds, and the retire
meat of his column through Cliett., s
burg to a strung position south of the
town, is generally spoken of as the
11-st day's fight of the great battle
tvhich ensued at Gettysburg. The
whole army advanced to this position
during the 'night, and the next day
Sickles's corps went into action and
was driven hack, the day closing

This reverse deealed the day, and

( Meade was promoted to be
a ltrigaolier-General of the regular
army by a coin rolision dated July

movell his army across the Potomac
into Virginia, where he bad several
skirmishes with the enemy in Octo

year ago. leaveing the9youngor
drew to the care of Clara, who was
the oldest daughter. It is alleged that
on account of differences with her
father, who, it is repoted, treated her
unkindly' she left home and her
mind was so affected, by her misfor
tunes that she committed the rash act
which so suddenly terminated her
life.
= —The deposits of gold at the Uni
ted States Mint in philadelphia, for
October were of the value of $W,416-
08, and the silver deptilts and pur
chases $1.13,860 42—making a total
of $358,216 57. The coinage , for the
month includes $315,500 in gold, $lB5,
493 in silver, $43 500 of nickel, and
9,100 of bronze. Besides this coinage
there passed though the Mint, in gold
bars' $1,998 03 and in silver bars $22,-
504 24, giving a total of coin and bars
for the month of the value of $578,-
095 27. Total number of pieces, 2,-
099,450.
—lt will be remembered how Chic
ago was agitated by the marriage of
Miss Ella Hancock, daughter of J. L.
daticock, an -eminent packer, to her
fathers coachman, Thomas Lynden
a native of Great Britain The matter
has been in the Supreme Court, on
the report of a Master, and has caused
further agitation. In every way, the
case is a singular one, Mrs. Lynden
at present is not more than3s years
old, childish in appearence god man
ner. Her husband is 35 years of age,
and bald at that. He used to take
Miss Ella out to drive alone, and im
proved the opportunity to win her
confidence. Hi told heramong other
things that he was a Prince in disguise,
and When she ex pressed admiration
for a beautiful house he would say:"
All right ! you shall have the-house
after we are married." After a deal
of this surreptitious wooing, hounts
got a license from the County Clerk,
swearing that his intended bride was
over IS, and the parties were married.
Ellen returned to her family and '
never cohabited with her husband
or acknowledged him as such. Fin
ally, she told the secret •to her sister,
and Thomas was kicked out of the
house. She has utterly refused to
live %%ith him. The Court, upon
technical grounds, refused to set the , 1
marriageaside,but gave the coin plain
ant leave to amend the bill into a pe
tition for divorce. Lynden by his
attorneys declares that his wife is
coerced in the action which she has
taken. It doesn't make much differ
ence what he declares, as he is evi- '
den tly, upon the facts, a-scoundrel for
whom the State prison would be a
far more luxurious retreat than ho
deseisl4.s.

NEW BRIOUTON. Nov / L.• 18724
COL. J. NV EYAND, Editor "Beaver Ar
gua," and to the honest CitiZazig of Bea
ver county,GßEETllia:
JUMOS S. Rutan Of Beaver return
ed to his office (the Beaver Consertia
4ire), and on lust Sunday printed) a
circular denying that he was a party
to the Beaver Falls &mid. Now.
reader, as I have never written nor
had printed ono word about the above
named counterfeit which was not in
erery particular true, nntl to give him
a fair and open chance to prove him
sett guiltless of the intended fraud at
that place, I make him the following
offer: That J. S. Rutan give timely
notice to Captain Tom Bradford, of
New Brighton, that he will appear
at the office of an alderman or-justice
.of the peace in the borough of BeaVer
Falls, on any day or hour between
the 13th and :..)*2.11 day of this month,
and then. and there make_ oath that
he did not—in company' with H. C.
Patter Sow—at any time purchase; at
a certain plaice in that borough, a bot
tle of liquor; and immediately there
after, with that bottle,go to the room
of the trio from Philadelphia, at the
Metropolitan Hotel. It he will do
this, I will have several respectable
citizens of the town—Grant Repuh
licans,Greeley Republicans and Dem
ocrats—present to confront him, and
establish\ by their statements under
oath the truth of that charge against
him. To excuse himself Itutan mays
he called, the night In question, on
Governor Bard of Tennessee. The
citizens whom I propose to have pres
.e
vet will swear that Governor -Bard
' was not at the Metropolitan on the
I night Rutan and Patterson were seen
taking their bottle to the Philadel
phia ballot-box staffers' room at that
hotel.
Now, Mr. Rutin, come to time, or
stand convicted of association with
James M. Allen, allay Specks, and
his two asgociates in contemplated
fraud. The note you presented Hart
upon the strength of which—instead
of a petition from the citizens of Bea
ver Falls—that officer appointed
M. Allen return Judge, is sufficient
of itself to establish Itutan's compli
city with those scoundrels; but, in
his - recent circular he further commits
himself, because he has drawn the
witnesses against him to the front,
and they will ace the music.
Quay and Itnbrie say: " Itutan is
sure to nut his footin,il„ifnot watch
ed," and thi4 is one of the many foul
pools in which he has immersed that
member, and out of which he is too
weak a vessel to extricate It. Ile is
guilty, and a majority of thecommu
nity are convinced of that fact.
Sound Political Doctrine.
The annual report of the Board of
Directors of the Union League for
I7oeontains the following important
declaration of principles. We agree
with the Press that after reading it,
the recent action' of the Campaign
Committee of the League in reference
to the Republicans who refused to
support liartranft and the Ring,
looks like the broadest satire:
"We shall he ready to advocate
any judicious measures that may lead
to a better plan for the nomination
of candidates- for elective offices,
ts•lieving the present system to he
one of the grws abust , of the time,
which, while it invites the worst
class of into into the political arena.
with equal force and success excludes
from political preferment the bast
elms of our citizens. This it is that
has ma& the name of politician - a
byword and driven common patri
otism and even simple honesty to
turn with disgust from the doors of
the caucus and the nominating con
vention. it is lime .that American
c iti zens seriously pondered this con
dition of political affairs and threw
into some op.posing movement the
weight of their influence. Let our
members be assured that whenever
the outraged publit4 forgetting fur the
time its political hoitilities, shall de
mand a return to the, civic virtue of
our forefathers, the Union League
will be the first. to hail and to join
in that great moral movement."
This sentiment was highly applaud
ed at the time by the NorthAmerietan,
the Pittsburgh Cbmmerei a/ , and oth:
er papers Which; in the late ' cam
paign, were among the Most subser
vient and unscrupulous . Organs- of
the Ring. Their strong utterances
were copied by this paper- pendirig
the October election. The Express
endorsed that , doctrine then, - never
stultified itself hy ignoring it in prac
tice, and still adheres to it. It is the
platform on which the party must
conduct its future operations if it
would • pre,e• rve its own existence.

A Lawsuit Involving an Eatate of
Over a Million Dollars Camino
mised bg the Payment of One Hun
dred Thousand Dollars —Truth
Stranger than Fiction.
[From the Loubsville Ledgcr.)
A very remarkable lawsuit which.
has been for some time pending in
the courts of Kentucky and Indiana
was brought to a termination a day or
two ago by the agreemeui of the par
ties to the suit of a compromise.
It will be remembered that some
years ago a German ge entlman nam
ed Gustavis Schurman resided in
Louisville. He was the possessor of
a considerable amount of property,
lived in good style, drove title horses,
sported a footman in livery' and
claimed, to be a German nobleman.
He wirs . married to a German lady,
had a .youfig and interesting family,
and to all appearances was prosper
ous and happy, But, as in so many
fatuities, there was to ghost In this
one, the secret of whose existence
did not come to light until the death
of the principal actor in tugs little 90-
cm' drama.
Gustavus was a resident of Aix-la-
Chapelle, a little city In Rhenish
Prussia, purstied the business of
cloth manufacturer, and was what
niigth be considered well off, his real
and personal estate being worth about
140,000 thalers or abou.t 8100,000. He
loved, or thought, he loved a lady
named Amelia Hosrhardine Goll,
daughter of one of the royal coun
selors, and in 1815 he proposed mar
riege, was ucceptdd, and the mar
riage was performed in that year.
An ante-nuptial contract was entered
into between the two, according to
the code Napoleon, which was in
form at Aix-Ifl- Chapelle, by which,
in case of the death of the husband
before the wife, she became entitled
to one-eight In fee simple of his en
tire estate, and one-forth of the estate
during her life-time, besides having
a community of interest in all ac
quisitions to the common fund after
marriage, which community of in
tei a 4 would entitle her to one-half.
The two lived hapily together for
some time, or apparently so. The
life of the wife, however, was soon
rendered wretched by the discovery
that another had supplanted her in
her husband's affections, This,
however, was not exactly the case;
it
,was she in reality who had taken
the place which nature - had assigned
to Anether:(3eborinan=had.to his em
ploy a number of factory girls, one
of whom, Catherine Hengelo, was
possessed with more than ordinary
auty. The impressilde young
bachelor was smitten with her beau
ty, but the inexoraple laws of socie
ty governing the little Rhenish prov
ince in which he lived held over him
a terror of proscription which pre
vented him from doing that which
his heart prompted. He loved Cath
erine IrengeLs, and his love was re
turned; but he married Amelia E.
Gott, who brought to him a pr tut
name and extensive dower. But ,r
the crime which Schurman had c
m itted against his nature he 4 am
ple punished. His married lite was
unhappy, while his love for the low
ly Catherine Bengels: berme even
more intense, now that it was im
possible for them to be legally uni
ted. They met clandestinely,and the
intercoursecoming to the knowledge
of the unhappy wife, she became dis
tressed beyond measure, unbraided
her husband with his perfidy, and
threatened divorce. This rendered
the husband desperate, and, open
ly avowing his attachment, took
Catherine Bengels into his domicile.
Becoming discontented with this
condition of things, Schurman deci
ded upon emigrating to America,
and mane to this country. lie re
turned to IS-19, and gathering togeth
er what property he could, departed
in 0150 for the United States, in com
pany with -Catherine Bengels. Be
fore his departure his wile instituted
suit tor a divorce, On the arrival of
Schurman he prbceeded to Louis
ville, where he took up his residence,
and s ue d for a divorce ffom his wife
Amelia, which wa granted, when he
immediately married the woman
who had eloped with hint.
GustaVusSchurman purehased real
estate in Indianapolis and Louisville,
and by his tact and business man
agement increased his wealth to over
a million of dollen, t At the time of
his death he had seven children, two
by his first wife . and Live by his sec
and wife. In making his will he
left his Prussian property to his Ger
man heirs, and his American proper
ty to his American heirs.
The first wife, Amelia, learning
of the death of her husband, obtained
possession by a legal process, of the
Prussian estate., and sued for her
share, as her marriage contract, of
the decedent's estate in America.
Her son, Gustavus F. Schurman,
represented het with power of attor
ney, and the ablest lawyers in the
city were employed to prosecute the
case. The pleadings were volumi
nous, and a vast amount of property
was involved; great interest was
manifested in the result. It appear
ed, however. that as the case pro
gressed the plaintiff weakened soo , c•
what in oncoming her claims. Ito
ingin a foreign country, and copies
of proceedings in foreign courts be
ing frequently rendered necess ary as
testimony in the American courts,
she became wearied. and finally
agreed to compromise by accepting,
in lieu of all claims the sum of one
hundred thousand dollars.

THE COME OF OCTOBER.
How Hcirtranfl
, : Was Elected
At last the. monstiouS frauds, by
which twenty thousand majority in
Philadelphia and thirty-five thous
and majority in the State were count
ed up for Hartranft, are coming ; out
io a light so vived and glaring as to.
startle the most stolid and blind of
the citizens of Pennsylvania. The
processes of addition, division and
silence for hoisting the Evans-Yerkes
candidate into the office of governor
are revealed in all their infamy.
Read the disclosures made by Mr,
Alfred Williams and filed in the
court of common pleas of Philadel
phia on Saturday last. In reading
rememember, too, that thisdoe- not
come from democratic sours s, hut is
the result of the investigations of
the municipal reform aissociation,eon
ducted under the authority of the
court. In forty-one divisioi.s eft hir
teen wards the fraudulent alterations
of the returns make ad: flip envy to
3,310 votes in favor of Ilartritnit.
Tao business-like array of these for
geries running through the returns
is shocking. Such a revelation 01
fraud, forgery and perjury never has
oven made. A guiding hand is visi
ble througout the whole of it. It is
evident that the manipulators of thy'
returns in the precinctts were acting
under the direction of a master. Tilt
system under which the - operatim ,
was performed in these thirteen .
wards extended throughout all the
wards of the city with their four
hundred precincts. " It will bo re
marked that some of the wards in
which the frauds were most transpa
rent in the returns have not ye been
reached. The work I f unearthing
the villainies of the Philadelphia
ring in October has only commenced.
The report of Mr. William t i is mere
ly the first installment.
The false cumiting, be it remem
bered, Is only a portion of this gigan
tic crime on the franchise. Wh a t
the repeaters plying in ail the ‘‘ are is
of the Aj.37 under the escort of 31a3 or
Stokely s police, and their allies, the
ballot stutters, were unable to accom
plish, was tins bed up by thissystt-ei
title alteratioi of the returns. The
ring unanager4s.were too fearful of the
succe of their system -in the interior
of the state, eise they would wit have
cumulated their frauds to such a
height in Philadelphia. They have
at last over-reached themselves. 1t
only remains now for the noble men
who have engaged In the work of ex
posing their villainy to pursue them
to justly mei-lied punishment. The
investigations shorild' not halt in
Philadelphia, but _should be extend
ed throughout the state until . it shall
be shown to all the people that I lart
ran ft, in spite of his majority 91 thir
ty-five thousand, is a fraudulently
elected governor.
This, then, is the glorious political
victory of the ring in l/ctober! This
is•the triumph - of crime Moe h was
flashed throughout the country as the
verdict of Pennsylvania on the night
of the election. These revised re
turns of the Philadelphia vote will
have'a fascinating but gloomy in ter
e,.t. for the , candidate who profits s e
largely by the frauds which they ex
pose. t ieneral Hartranft Icy their
light will discern more clearly th ,,
true judgment of-the people of Phila
delphia on lilt.) Ofildid conduct in the
office of auditor general. He will see
how his majority was raised two
hundred in a, preinct by two strokes
of a scoundrel's pen—one stroke ad
ding a hundwd to his count, and the
other taking a hundred from Mr.
Buckalew. If this exposure shows
how strong the distrust of of hini by
the people of Philadelphia, it at the
same time presents touching proofs of
the affection In which he is held by
the forgers of election returns. Ila
will soot' have an opportunity of
evincing the strength of his gratitude
towards those wh4) raised his majori
ty to teenty ;thousand.— Ilorrixharq

Judge Quint -Brings a Sin 7 Against
Her for $S L ir75 for Hi.g ,S'errices in
Her Two Triale—She Repudiutes
Her Agreement.
From he Sao Fritncigco Storning (MII, Oct. '2li.
Another phase in the affairs of Lau
ra 1). Fair!' Judge Quint, to whom
more than all:others mho owes her life,
or at any rate her freedom, has felt
himself compelled to bring suit
against his former client to obtain
from her the sums due to him for his
services. Thesuit was held yesterday,
and Judge Quint gives the follow ing
statement of the causes which have
led to its institution; The original
agreement illne ease of Mrs. Fair,
previous to her first trial, was that
Judge Quint Was to receiVe;',4s - 000 rar
his services, yiz; $2,100 cash, which
he did recleve t and 552,500 which he
was to be paid after the trial, and
which he bps not recekA. This
agrement was made with Ms. Lane,
on behalf of Mrs. Vair. The verdict
being "Murder in the first degree."
Judg,eQuint did not feel that it would
he right for him to claim the second
$2,500, and therefore he went on with
the case without further reception of
cash. lie drew up the brief upon
‘viiich the Supreme Court granted a
new trial, and did all the heavy
work in connection with the prepß
tvtions for her second trial. The re suit
of it all was that she was acouitted„
as all the world knows. 'Last week'
Judge Quin(went to her and asked
for the halm* of $2,500, and for $.57:")
expenses which he incurred in going
to Truskee tdi look into the matter of
the juror Beach, in preparing the
brief for the Supreme Court, in print
ing of documents, and in various nee.
essary work. To Judge Quint's
amazement.
M Rs. FARR impt'DIATED TH E AC. It I: I:-

She told \lr. Quint—the III:111 who
had saved het life—that she had paid
him all that S his services had been
worth. which in one sense was more
than true. She said she had notau th
orized Mrs. Lane to make airy agree
ment on llt• behalf, and as to
extra expenses, she had not asked
Mr Quint to incur them, and, there
fore did not consider hetielf respon
sible for them. Judge Quint has
therefore breng,ht suit against her,
