Oil Wednesday tho President was re
moved from bed and placed in a reclining
ohalr. lie enjoyed tho chango and no
ill effects were noticed. Tho principal
danger now lies in the impure condition
of the President's blood. Tho trouble
in the right lung which it was feared
was caused by an abscess does not in
crease, and is not considered dangerous.
Tho President is yet a very sick man,
but hopes arc entertained that ho will
recover.
CAMERON'S V1CT0KY.
Tho Republican Stato Convention was
huld in Ilarrisburg on Thursday of last
week. From tho ueginuing it was ovi
dent that tho Cameron forces were in
tho majority, and that Gen Davics
would bo dofeated for Stato Treasurer.
M. S. Quay, Cameron's right hand man,
was elected temporary chairman, receiv-'
ing 102 votes to 83 cast for Hon. George
Lear. This showed the relative strcneth
of tho two factious and the vole cast for
tho nominees differed but slightly from
tucso ujjuree, oeinrr 107 lor liaily and 84
for Davics. Tho "independents" made
a vigorous fight but without avail. It
was rough on the anti-Cameronians to
have Quay for presiding oflicer and that
is probably tuo reason ho was chosen,
Cameron does not intend to yield tho
ruins of power without a strnefrlo and
has shown that he has yet a strong fol
lowing. What is tho strength of the
"independents" will bo known when tho
votes aro counted m .November.
Gen. Silas M. Baily is a native of Fay
ette county, forty-fivo years of ace and
is a jeweler. During tho war ho was in
tho Eighth Regiment, of which ho even
tually became Colonel. Jtio has never
held a public office, and nover will if
Wolfe can provent it.
DEATH OP GEX. BUUNSIDE.
General Ambrose Everhart Burnside
died suddenly at his homo in Bristol R.
I., at cloven o'clock on Tuesday morn
inr last, Tho immediate cause of death
was a spasm of tho heart.
Gen. Burnside was born at Liberty,
Indiana, JMay aard, 1821 and was there
fore a little inoro than 57 years of age,
He graduated at Wcbt Point in 1847,
and remained in the aimy until 1853
when, having invented a bieech-loadiug
rillf, he icsimiul his commission and t-s
tablished a factory for manufacturing
the arum. Inl8Gl,atthc breakiiiu out
of the war, lie was aniininted Colonel of
the First Rh lo l-lniirf regiment. Ik
was made Uiitrudier General after the
first battle of Bull Rim. November 7th
1862, he as-iiinu d command of the Armv
of the Potomac, lie wi uimiwi'ssful
and re-timied January 2Gth, 18G!$. Ii
May following ho was assigned to tho
'command of tho department of the Ohio,
In January, 18G-1, BurnsiiV-' was relieved
and assigned to tho Ninth Corps. Ho
resigned aom tho army April 15th, 18G5
In 18GG and 1867 ho was elected Gov
ernor of Rhode Island. In 1875 he was
chosen United States Senator and was
re elected. His present term would havo
expired March 8, 1887. Gon. Burnsido
was of fine personal appearance, cour
teous in manner and ol good abilities.
Last week a passenger train on tho
Chicago & Alton R It., was stopped
aud robbed by twelvo masked men, be
tween Kansas City and Independence
Mo. Tho express messenger rylused to
surrender tho key of the, safe and was
fatally beaten by tho robbers. All tho
passengers were robbed of tbei. watches
and valuables. Tho exact losi is not
known. Governor Chittenden issued
proclamation calling upon the people to
riso and exterminate the robbers. Large
bodies of mounted men havo been scour
ing the country under tho command of
sheriffs and marshals. Tho latest reports
announce tho capture of several men,
ouo of whom, named Caldwell, has it is
said made a confession. This it is
thought will lead to the capture of tho
whole gang, and probably will put a
stop to future robberies of railroad trains.
Tho Governor is evidently determined
to capture tho villains.
A most unexpected attempt to kill
Gulteau, tho assassin, was made on Sun
day afternoon. Sergeant Mason, of
Battery B, Second Artillery, when re
lieving the guard at the jail, shot at
Guiteau through tho window of his cell.
The ball grazed the assassin's head and
imbedded itself in the wall of tho cell.
Mason was promptly arrested and im
prisoned at the arsenal. Mason's attempt
indicates the detestation in which
Guiteau is held and goes to show
that tho Bufferings of tho Presi
dent havo increased tho angry feel
ing against his assailant. Tho wretched
Guiteau will experience fresh alarm
for his safety, uow that ho has seen that
oven bis guards are not to be trusted.

In various parts of tho State there is
strong opposition to the continuance of
tho Cameron rule, and Mr. Wolfe may

machine candidate at tho polls in Novem

of voters who have blindly followed the

SPECULATIVE INSURANCE.
We publish this week tho chargo of
Judgo Elwell to tho jury, in tho caso of
tho Uomruonweaitn against Andrew
Roup. The court refers in severe terms
to tho practices of many of tho assess
ment hfo iusuranco companies that havo
been chartered within tho past few years,
and clearly asserts that policies taken
out on tho lives of thoso in whom tho
holder has no interest, cannot be col
lected. Wo know of at least ono of
theso companies whoso oflicers havo used
overy endeavor to provent fraud, but it
is an unfortunate fact for tho reputation
of tho business, that many of tho per
sons engaged in securing policies are
not men in whom tho public placo con
fidence, and it is the fraudulent practices
of theso peoplo that havo brought down
tho censuro of tho courts and tho publio
generally upon this particular species of
speculation. If any ot these insurance
companies hopo to establish themselves
on a permanent basis, and live down the
odium now attached to them, they must
abandon tho purely speculative aspect of
their business and build up classes of
younger and healthier men and women.
-. . . ... ... e
A littlo more caro in the selection oi
agents and physicians through the coun
try would also tend to elevate them in
tho eyes of tho public. So far as has
como to our knowledge, the companies
located in this county have endeavored
to transact all their business on a fair
basis, and have done all in their power
to prevent agents from securing bad
risks How well they havo succeeded,
time alone will tell.

Last week tierce forest fires in north
eastern Michigan destroved hundreds of
lives aud thotisuuds of dolhus worth of
valuable property. The Innied district
comprises the townships of Tittabawassie,
Kochville, Frankenluth, Saginaw, Buena
Vista, Blumheld, Bndg'port, Birch Run
and Taymuuth, in Saginaw County, and
from a point about three miles west of
Sagiuaw City to within ten miles of St.
Louis, on the Sacrinaw Vallv and St.
Louis Railroad, a strip ono mile wido on
both sides of tho road. In Tuscola Coun
ty, tho townships of Millington, Novesta,
Dayton, Tuscola, Denmark, Vassar,iair
grove, Nowburg, Arbela, Gilford and
Wells havo been swept clean. Hurou
County has been burned over from ono
end to tho other, and presents the ap
pearance ol a blackened desert
Crops were destroyed, barns, houses
aud fences burned and the ground was
strewn with tho dead bodies ot human
beings and animals. It is probable that
lully hvo hundred persons perished.
More than two hundred charred corpses
havo been found and buried and moro
are discovered daily. Moro than fifteen
hundred families aro utterly destitute
and homeless, seeking shelter in barns,
Their condition is pitiable and aid is in
voked from tho whole peoplo ot the
country. It is estimated that fully ten
thousand peoplo aro suffering from bun
ger, halt clad and shelterless. This is
ono of the most frightful misfortunes in
the history of tho country aud appeals
most strongly to the sympathies ot tho
generous and charitable.
REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
The Republicans of the county held
their convention in tho Opera House, on
Monday aitcrnoon. There wero about
forty delegates present. Tho conven
tion was called to order by J. C. Brown
chairman of tho County Committee, and
tho certificates of delegates were pre
sented. When urango township was
reached two sets of delegates claimed
scats. Silas Conner contested tho scat
of II. C. Eves, and Camden Mcars that
of Joseph Crawford. Dr. J. Schuyler
was elected temporary chairman and bo
appointed fc. J. l'ealer, ilieouoro W,
Smith and Peter Laubacli a committee
to decide tho contest in Orange. The
committee retired and tho liveliest kind
of a debate look placo between the mem
bcrs and wituesses. There was evident
ly much bitterness of feeling. Tho
conimltteo finally reported in favor of
seating one of tho contestants, tho chair
man to name tho other, Dr. Schuyler
flatly refused to do anything pt tie Hind
and sent tho committeo back to finish
their work. When they returned they
decided in favor of Messrs Meaiu and
Crawford and tho convention agreed to
this. Then Mr. Eves liuide a very am
mated speech in which he said that ho
hud been duly elected and would repiain
una voto on every question, unless re
moved by force. Ho was sharply inter
runted bv Isaiah Hagenbuch who claim
ed that Eves bad no right to address (ho
convention, as ho was not a delegate
Tho molarity apparently agreed witl
Mr. Ilaoenbuch and Mr. Eves subsided
and refrained from further participation
in tho proceedings. Some novel proposi-
tlons were made ono delegate wished a
committeo on disputed elections appoint
ed before an organizaJon had been pf.
fected or a chairman elected, and another
asked for n committeo to examine cre
dentials after tho delegates had already
voted two or threo times. After tho
ripplo of exoitement caused by Mr. Eves'
speech had subsided, tho convention
settled down to work, G. W. Groveling
was nominated lor prothonotary, by ac
clamation, George A. Buckingham Esq.

for county treasuier and Gurrick Mallery
for county auditor in tho same manner.
M. G. Hughes was named for Associato

Tho convention refused to receivo his
declination and nominated him despite
his objections and also nominated John
Hatitz for tho ofllco of Associato Judge.

Terminal Organization
On the question of an active pcrma-
ncnt organization of tho Democratic
party, tho llarrisburg Jt'atriot makes tho
following Bcnsiblo remarks :
It is tho sublimity of folly to attempt
to organizo a half million of voters in n
three months' canvass. It is utterly ri
diculous to think of adding proselytes to
tho ranks of tho party by distributing
documents and holding mass meetings
in mo neat oi a campaign. 11 is a con
tinuous, ueyer-cuding labor to build up
a party. Not only must tho central or
ganization bo constantly familiar with
overy detail ot party work throughout
tlio State, but it must bo ready at any
and overy moment to take advantago of
any weakness of tho enemy of which it
may bo advised. In tho winter months
when tho average voter has moro leisure
to read and on account of the absenco
of political excitement is moro iuclincd
to think for himself than at any other
time of tho year, tho Stato Committoo
should makoits principal effort at prose
lyting th.o igh tho circulation ot sound
aau instructive puny muruturu. in
deed this kind of work should bo kept
up tho wholo year round. But in order
to accomplish such a task tho (Jhairman
of tho Stato Committeo and his clerks
must bo constantloy employed. Tho
party headquarters must bo kept open
and busy year in and year out without
any intermission. Tho "machine," as
tho vulgar independents would say, must
run with a perpetual motion, it may bo
objected that tho idea is visionary and
! .!--,., 1 !i ! 1 .1
lmpnicuuaoiu uccuusu it nivuivca mu ui-
pendituro of too much monoy. Tho ob-
iection is not well-founded. Tho money
misspent in tho ordinary uiuneso gong
campaign to which wo aro accustomed
will siiilice to carry on all practical and
sensible operations of a State organiza
tion in permanent activity. Besides one
year's trial of tho 'jlan would so com
mend it to tho party that there would be
no difficulty afterward hi raisi.ig the
necessary sinews of war. Tho Chairman
of the State Committee and his cleiks
should, however, be paid annual salaries
sullicieiit to enable them lo devote their
whole time and attention to the party
work. Thev should be men who nro
separated entirely iconi the interests of
taction and who have no amoitious anrs
of their own. Indeed the work of the
State Committee should be pel formed as
systematically as that ot a government
bin can and the functionaries selected to
perform it should hold their places during
good behavior subject to removal only
by the full committee.

Georgo Thompson, who farms the
placo of Dr. Leo Cummins, on tho lino
of tho Wilmington and Northern Rail
road, for shares, made an agreement last
Winter to dispose of his sharo of tho
peach crop to B. B. Allen for a horse
and sleigh valued at $150. After dili
gent search in the orchaid last Saturday
week two peaches woro found, ono of
which Mr. Thompson delivered to Dr.
Cummins as his share, and tho other ho
handed over to Mr. Allen, according to
agreement. It is not often that a man
gives a horso and sleigh for a singlo
peach of tho Mountain Roso variety, as
this ono happened to bo, or of any other
kind.
