The fact that a man wiitcs for a newspaper should add no weight to his personal opinions, but the expressions of a certain gentleman in regard to the Democratic ticket in general and one or two of the candidates for county oil-cos in particular, having hccna'jccp' cd by some people as coming from the editor of the Freeman, we desire to Kay that no one is entitled to that dis tinction, if distinction it be, except ourself individ'ir.Ily, ami that whatever relation the gentleman in question may have held to this paper in the past, be ! holdsnone now nor has beheld any since j the meeting of the last county con-j ven,ion.

We know full well that, Mr. i lleilly'a predilections, as well as his own private interests, are decidedly averse to further ventures in. the po litical arena, and hence, we feel that it is asking almost loo much to insist upon his candidacy for a second term, glad as we would be of the opportuni ty to once more support him to the full extent of our humble ability. Yet if the hope expressed by the Democrat that the Congressional confeiecs will nominate Mr. ISeilly with a unanimity j that will compel him to listen to the wishes of l he party should le fully gratified, we shall rejoice with exceed ing great joy, for we shall then feel that we have a man whose election is beyond ierad venture, which is some thing that could not 'with the same degree of certainty be said about any other possible candidate.

The Indian Democrats who were at Saratoga with Mr. Jlcn ciicks declare that there lias been a complete revolution io sentiment in that State since the adjournment of the St. Louis Convention, and that they nov Itelieve, from the developments, that Mr. Tilden will p.-ove to be stronger than his party in that State.

In viow of Hip I'lcsidential election in November, the rotate elections which will j.ircerlo it. will be 1'vfceil to with interest. The l iUowiiiff is the order of these elec tions : 1. Kentucky, on the first Monday in An pusV. This election will be for members -f the be i;h. hi true and Circuit Judces. Tho Democrats) sue making active prepHiatieus for the election, but t-o fiir the iiepubhcan.s indicate a purpose to allow the election to go by default. 2. California, on the first Wednesday in September. This election is for members of the General Assembly and members of Congress. The parries are pretty equally divided, each claiming the victory, and an exciting contest is predicted. 3. Vermont, on the first Tuesday in Sep tember. This election is for State officers, members of the General Assembly, nnd as tho State is overwhelmingly Republican, the only interest attached to the election will be in noting the relative lost) aud gain of the two parties. 4. Maine, on the second Monday in No veinber.; Here a State ticket will be elected, and there seems to be na doubt of tho re election of Gen. Selden Conner, Republi can, the present Governor. 5. Georgia, on the peeonrt Tuesday in October. Gen. A. II. Colquitt is likely to head the Democratic ticket for the Gov ernorship, whose flection is predicted by 7.1,000 majority. As yet the Republicans have uot indicated a purpose to contest the field. 6. West Virginia, on the second Tuesday in October. This election embraces a State ticket, members of the Legilature, and members of Congress. Tho Democrats are already in the Held with a State ticket, headed by the Hon, A. M. Matthews, pres ent Attorney-General, lor the Governor ship. The Republicans will nominate a Stato ticket dm ing the latter part of the present month. The Democrats claim that all their dissensions are healed, and that they will carry the Slate by a large majori ty. 7. Ohio, second Tuesday in October. In this State a full ticket, with the exception of Governor and. Lieutenant-Governor, will be elected. Tho Republicans claim they will carry the- State by an increased ma jority over If ayes' vote iu 1875, but wo shall tec what, we shall see. 8. Indiana, on the. second Tuesday in October. Hero x full Slate ticket v. ill be elected, tho Democrat ic ticket being bended by tho Hon. J. D. Williams, present mem ber of Congress, for the Govsrnoiship, and the Republican ticket by the Hon. Godlove S. Oi tli, late Minister to Austria. Indiana promises to be the battleground preparato ry to the Presidential onset in Xoveinber, and both parties will put forth their best effort to secure the ascendancy. 9. Iowa, on tho second Tuesday m Oc tober. This is a Republican State, and may be expected to east its vote in thatdi lection both in October and November. 10. Nebraska, second Tuesday iu Octo ber. This is also a Republican State. 11. Texas on the first Monday in No vember. Tbis State will probably go Dem ocratic by from 75,000 to 100,(100 majority, but the election is too near the lime of holding the Presidential election to effect it iu any perceptible uVgrco. n Miss Jenette P.exnf.ttin a Cos vent. The repoits which associated the name of Miss Jcriette ISennett, James Gor don Pennttt's sister, with a conventual life have proved tine. Miss lienne! t, to the great, regret of her brother, who is deeply attached to his sifter, has taken her first vows at the Convent of the Sacred Heart, and is forever lost to the woi Id. Tho event seems n ghastly sort of parody on the little power which tho goods of this world has to confi-r happiness. If two persons in the world possess means unlimited for earthly enjoyment it is Mr. James Goulon Dennett I and his sister, yet she sees nothing better to do with her youth and beauty than in muie them in a convent ! P.tit it is not so strange as it appears aft':r all, and the so lution of the problem is easily found itithe character of th 3nttng l;tdy herself, s il!y Milled to the splendid loneliness of ht i :-r-rotmd-.ngs. Miss Bennett was a 1 -ivfly, shy gil l, very modest and painfully ret Iriiig in her disptisitiou so much so th:-.t s n ii-ly, especially tho somewhat pronounced and ultra-fashionable society into which she was introduced, was the most trying ordeal to her. She was rarely visible at her brother's dinner parties, but on occasion when ladies were invited, and she was obliged to receive them, she did so with an effmt which occasioned her a great amount of self-sacrifice, and receive.? the polite attentions of the most polished gen tlemen of American and English society with a reserve, which was all the more hopeless because it did not proceed from pride, but rather from humility, separation and abandonment to other ideals. The sweet young girl was, however, a charm ing feature of 1 he magnificent home, cor ner of Thirty-eight street aud Filth avenue, and many others will miss her presence in its stately moms besides her brother.

The employees of iho shop turned out en masse and chased Iho mur derers towards tho river. The l:tter leap ed into the river, and attempted to escape across, but wore stoned to death by tho outraged workmen. Albuis aud Elsdeu leave families. Tho body of one of the Thielhorns lias been recovered from the river, and men were engaged in dragging for the others. The murderers were desperate characters, and shot, innocent men out of mere deviitrv. During the excitement, F. W. Dawson, the proprietor, was robbed of $2,230 in checks, which lie was about to deposit. Policeman Dickersou died of his injuries at five o'clock. The deaths number seven Policemen FJsden and Dickersou, tbo three Thieihuins, Alburs and a woikman. Mr. J. P. Campbell, of Florence, N. J., has in his possession tho grapeshot with which Lafayette was wounded at the battle of Urandywine. It has been in his poses sion over half a century, and was given to him by bts aunt, who picked it up after it had struck the Marquis and been stopped by a wall. The heroine wan on that day carrying ammunition in her apron, and when the gallant Frenchman was wounded she tore 01F her clothing to stanch tha blood and bind up the wound. On the visit of the Marquis tr this country several year later he sought her out. The. hall is a cast iron globe, about 11 inches in diameter, aud has been religiously preserved. The Indian lVar.

They fired into camp every night of late, and tried to bum us out by setting the grass on lire all round on the Gth, Lieutenant Sibley, Company K., Sec ond Cavalry, with 23 men. Frank Gruard and Paptisto Powcner, United States scouts, went, on a rcconnois ance, were discovered and sunounded and followed into the timlwr of Pig Horn Mountains, where, by hitching the'horses to the trees and abandoning t hem, the men were enabled to escape on foot by way of a ravine in the rear. They all got back alive and probably this diversion saved the camp fiom a graud attempt at stampede or capture. The Snake Indians, two hundred strong, joined us here yesterday, but unless the Cte.salso come soon, no offensive operat ions will be likely to take place until the arrival of the Fifth Cavalry from Cheyenne Cross ing. The wagon train and additional in fantry aro due from Fetterman to-day. The health of the command is good.

EIGHT nrXDHED CHKTKXXES LEAVE THEIIt AOECY TO GO OS THE WAR PATH. CiietKxne, V. T., July 10.--In conse quence cf a report from Captain Jordan, commanding Camp Robinson, that eight hundred Cheyennes weie about to leave Rod Cloud agency for the north. General Merritt has delayed the proposed movement of tho Fifth Cavalry northward from Fort Larinie to join Crook, and has moved it to a position where he expects to intercept these Indians, and, if joss:blo, give them a warm reception. The two couriers start ed on their return from I'elterman for Crook's camp this evening and will reach him in three days. James Malony and two others, with twenty head of horses, en route for Law rence's ranch from that of W. C.

Dismounting, they returned the fire, wounding one Indian, when tho sttck stampeded, tho Indians finally gaining possession of it aud leaving for the bluff's." A Fated Family. Tho family rf ex Chancellor Hoisted, or Newark, J., appears to be a fated one. Six eons wero born unto tho venerable gentleman, five of whom have met violent deaths. Caleb.the eldest, was killed at a fox hunt, nrar P!iz abf.th. some forty years ago. He fell from his horse, was caught in the stirrup and dragged until his brains were dashed out. Robert was captain of the bark Griffin, owned by the famous "Pet." In it be carried round the Horn to California, in 1K4s Pet, Abe, George and Frank and other Xewaikeis, among tiie first at the gold fields. The captain was carried off in his prime by an at!a-k of "Yellow Jack." Tho terrible fate of "Pt "tl, r. mous of ail t he 1 Ialst eau, is yet fresh in the public mind. A woman of Bubylon, the mistress of a charcoal dealer named George Potts, wiled Pet from his household gods and to his death at the bands of Potts. Not long after Abe Halsted, the fourth of tho brothers, had bolh legs mangled by a horse car accident so that he died. His friends alleged that he whs assisting a lady wlin he was caught under the wheels. And r.ow comes Frank, whose body was found drowned in Minnetoaka lake, Wis consin, a few days ago, with a sack of stone about his neck. A coroner's jury says bo suicided, but his father thinks dif ferently, and has sent his Ron, Major Georee P. Hoisted, to look after tho "de ceased's interests in tho West and biing the body home for interment. Meanwhile the poor old Chancellor lies at his home at Lyons Farms, wondering if even his .boy George will be spared to closo his father's eyes in death. A Rich Ui-it.okk's Awful. Death. Mr. William MoGuirc, a wealthy builder of Brooklyn, died 011 Friday, IIo was rid ing in a light top buggy with his eldest son, Charles, behind a spirited horse, in Clinton avenue, and the front wheel of the buggy passed over a broken hoop, which entangled itself in the spokes, leaving one end projecting from tho wheel. As the wheel revolved this projecting point, which wris ragged and sharp, struck the horse in tho think, aud at every revohrtinn of the wheel reflated tho blow. Tho horse bounded forward and sped over the pave ment with amazing swiftness. As the iron inflicted its repealed stings, the horse plunged on more swiftly until he was in a mad gallop. Mr. McGuire, who had tried to check him, suddenly grew pale and said to his son, "Charley, we're gone!" When they reached Atlantic avenue, the horse turned toward Vandeibilt avenue, and the wheels catching in the car track, upset the carriage in an instant with a violcut shock. Mr. McGuire was thrown in a complete somersault, alighting on his head and shoulders. His son, who clung to the reins, was thrown out on hiship. Mr. McGuire's skull was fractured and his collar bone broken. Ho was carried homo iu an am bulance. Ho had been one of the most ex tensivo builders in Brooklyn, having erect ed nearly 500 brown-stone houses "on the Hill, and has accumulated a laige fortune. Ho leaves a widow aud several children. A Plucky Passenger. During the great storm in Ohio a train of cars ran into a tunnel near North Bend, in which the water was so deep that it put out the lire in the locomotive, and over a hundred pas sengers were imprisoned. Another train would Ixg duo in an hour, and it was neces sary that somebodv should get out of the tunnel and reach a neighboiing signal to prevent a terrible disaster. The water was about four feet deep, and running swiftly. A young man, whose name is not given in the Cincinnati Times' account of the occurrence, volunteered for tho exploit. The total darkness increased tho danger" and the distance was oue-eighth of a mile! The j-oucg man removed his boots ami coat and plunged in. The current carried him along, and bo easily kept his head abovo water, although collisions against the rocky sides of the tunnel nearly disa bled him. but he mado the passage and stop ped the threatening train. In the meantime the passengers in the tunnel wore tremb ling with hope and fear, aDd the suspense was not relieved until several hours later, when the water subsided, the fire in the lo comotive was kindled, and their journey was continued. jS'ctrf aii'l fit her X'otinfs, Cucumbers are raised in Florida four, and a half feet long.

From Harrirfbarp and virinity we have had remits of the birth of two ?et3 of triplets this year, one fct beinrr ghls and the ether Intys. Aud now Reading comes to the front with triplets, two boys and a iil. Mrs. Michael I-atus, wife of a Seventh street baker, has done this thirrtj, and Read ing is T.rnud of her. The multitudinous progeny are dohig well. With a promptitude worthy of the cause the House cf HepresentaMves has unanimously psssetf resolutions awarding pensions to the widow, father and mother of the brave Custer. We are glnd t note that amid all the b'ckei irs and wup'ea antness of legislation at this ei iod enough public spirit and patiiotism exis'ed to p'lh the matter through without delay. Accounts from Crooks, received on Saturday, represented him a till safe. Hut the Indians on the war-path are mul tiplying, and the situation is ready a dan gerous one. Generals Sherman and Shpri dan express tho utmost confidence that Crooks can cope successfully with the In dians. But would they not have volun ter red ashnnch for Custer before his defea"? 1 he funeral of the three Tbiflhortis, the Trenton murderers, 011 S.ituidny, was a sai affair. Amelia Thielhoru tried her bet to get lier wretched brothers interred in sonio one of the cemeteries-, she cued not which, only that they might be spaicd the Potter's Field. She otfered over -fToO all she had but tho mocry was refused, and there was no recourse but the Tottei's Field. John Mooie. aged sixty eig'it years, a resident of New burg, X. Y., fell from his wagon on Friday, July 7. lie was picked up apparctitlj' r.nh'jtwed ar.d went alont his business. Qu the uay folio wing he was affected by the intense hear, and sank into a deep sleep. From that time until the 14th six days he neither sjike, opened his syes nor ate or drank anything. Ho died on Fiiday. Uu Thursday evening last a heavy rain storm produced tremendous flood at Free dom, Beaver county, Pa., which destroyed a large amount of property, and at Crow's Run, about half a mile above Freedom, a frame house occupied by Thomas Light hill was swept away and his w ife and four children were drowned. Much damage was done to crops and farm property on the line of the etorm. A remarkable fatality seems to attend the family of Charles I,. 5laib e,of R..beits Meadow, Northampton, Mass., who was killed by n fall last week. Three of bis children fiave been killed, one having been burned to death, one killed in a mill and the third killed by a mowing machine, w hile still another had a very narrow escaikj from death by tho Mill River Hood. Tho father, two sisters and a sister's child have also died through accidents. Friday morning. Win. J. .Taekman, a clerk in the ofticeof Auditor General Tem ple, was arretted on the charges offbrgery, embezzlement, conspiracy and corrupt -licitatitn, 011 oath or Governor Hartranft. Jackman, it is alleged, acted in conjunction with Court right, Jate treasurer of Luzerne county, Millspaugh. treasurer of Scrantou, and others, in falsifying ,uid forging re ports mndo to the department, thereby de frauding the State. He entered bail in the sum of$:l,r,00 to answer at the August term of court in that comity. In 1S: Randall Montgomery, a native of New York, at that time in the service of the Emperor of Brazil at Rio Janeiro, rescued fiim drowning a young son of the reigning monaixh. He was duly rewarded for the act. Afterward, returning to New York, he died, leaving a widow and step son, the latter being Mr. J. U. Dillon, the present chief clerk of the Harlem police court. While in New Yoik, Dom Pedro sought out Mr. Dillon and piesented him with an elegant ling set with rubies and diamonds, in the form of a horseshoe. Thnt was rather a funny scene which occurred during tho sittings of tho "peace" Congress in Philadelphia last week. hilst the advocates of peace and mm combativcpcss were quietly tutting in their seats nbsorbed in the beauty and sacred uess of their belief, a crazy delegate mount ed tho stand, and imngiuing himself im bued with tho warlike spirit of Georgo Washington, snatched a chair and threat ened to demolish all before him. The lay peace delegates rushed Tor the doors and windows, but tho President of the meeting, illustrating the efficacy of the principles and powers of his pet theory, stood his ground, until the madman was "leized and placed beyond tho power of further mis chief. Non-combntiveness in this instance carried the day ; but it was fearfully at the expense of courage and will. The lunatic was using what might bo called a kmvk down argument. i 0iJ!G AT THE PURCHASING PUBLIC- PDi.vrs- AFII rnxd -rr-r ?. . !! - V- loa-ea feoia l. i a...:" r ?
