On Tuesday last General McClellan was in augurated Governor of New Jersey at Trenton, and on tbe name day, at Columbus, George II. Pendleton was elected to tbe Voited StateB Senate by tbe Legislature of Ohio. Thisis rather a rematkalie coinci dence. O.i the discussion of a motion made in the U. 8.

Tbe conUft, which was a ' triangnlar oue between Mr. Pendleton, Gen. Thomas Ewing, and General Geoige "W. Morgan, was warmly fought by their respective fticr.ds, and resulted in Mr. .Pendleton's uomiuHtion on the third ballot, lie is so prominent a member of tbe Dem reiatie party, and is so well known through out the country, that it is quite unnecessa ry to refer at length to bis merit and bis peculiar qualifications for tbe high position. His ability is unquestioned, and his services to the Democracy of Ohio in sunshine and in storm placed them under great obliga tions to bim. As a Senator he will oecnpy a place in the fuiemost rank, and no State in the Union will be moie ably represented in tbat body than Ohio with Allen G. Thur man and Gecrge II. Pendleton. TstTatklsh Minister of Foieign Affairs, accompanied by another high officer of the government, left Constantinople on Tues day last for Kezanbk to meet tbe Grand Puke Nicholas, of Russia, and commence negotiations for peace between the two countries. Kezaulik, where the conference is to be held, is a town in Roumelia, at the f ot of the Balkan mountains on their nitbern slope. All military operations will of couise be suspended uu til the result t)f tho negotiations is known, which will probably not be for some time to come. The Bri ish PaiTameiit reassembled jester day, and it is said in London that the views of the English government on the question of tbe proposed treaty of peace will be declared in a few days. Since the fall of Plevna one disaster after another lias befallen the Turkish army. Sophia, a uth cf tbe Balkans, fell into the posses sion of a body of Russian cavalry without auy resistance, and the entire Turkish ar any, about 25,000 men, tbat was defending tbe oelebrated Scbipka Pass, was captured by tho Russians afier a short engagement. TVith Turkey, therefore, peace has become a matter of absolute necessity, even though Bugland may protest against some of its terms. -- TftR serious charge is made by the Har risburg correspondent of a Pittsburgh daily, that a member of the House one day last J tion on Fiiday last for the appointment of veek offered a bill in his own proper hand, a committee to investigate the facts CDn writing for the pensioning of soldiers of j nected with the origin of the Pittsburgh the war of 1912, "dirretpfctive of Uangtht : riots last July, and report the testimony to time of service."

Tiir action of the Republican Stare con- i vention of New Hampshire last week was ' complete victory for Mr. Hayes and bis ( Southern policy, and a signal defeat for the j radical wing of the party that Still tights under the banner of the bloody shirt. Tbiee or four weeks ago William K. Chandler, of tbat State, a restless political demaggne ; and tho mere shadow of Blaine, addressed a lengthy letter to the Republicans of tbe ! State in which he bitteily denounced Hayes I aud his administration, and reviewed with ! much detail the alleged bargain, or agree ment, made last February between Mr. Hayes' personal representatives from Ohio, Stanley Matthews, John Sherman and Chas. Foster, on tbe one side, and certain Demo cratic members f Congress from the South on the other, by which it was arranged that the count of the electoral vote should be completed, which would result in de claring Hayes electtd, and that if this was done Hayes would withdraw the troops from xew Orleans and Columbia and per mit tho tottering governments of Packaid aud ChambeiUiu to full from their own inr Lerent weakness. Chandler's sublime im pedence will be properly appreciated when it is stated that he was one of the conspir ators who, with Bub Mackey, of this State, and others of the same stripe, went down t Tallahassee immediately after the Presi dential election, and through their corrupt operations with McLit), a negro, aud Cow gill, a white man, the two foiuiing a ma- ioiitv of the Returning Board, cheated i j Tildcu out of the vote of Florida and de clared it for Hayes. In bis letter Chandler was very careful not to sr.y anything about the part be himself played in this infamous business, as a rewaid for which be asked liases to appoint hint Minister to Spain. His demand was not complied with and hence his letter, which was intended to ar ray the Republican party in bvs own Slate against tbe Southern policy of the adminis tration, and revive the spirit of sectional hate in the rauks of Northern Republican ism. The letter and its author Trere both treated with contempt by the State con vention Governor Piescott, a warm Hayes man, was renominated a resolution square ly et.iloising the pacific couise of Hajes towards the South was adopted, and Chand ler was branded by one of the delegates iu a speech as "a political tramp." This ought to be the last appearance of Chandler on the political stage, aud be a warning to him and all others like bim that if theie is any one thing that the people of the whole country desire more than another, and are determined to have, it is peace, with all its unnumbered blessings, between tbe North and the South, and tbat any man, no matter Itow high may be bis position, who undertakes to iuauguiate an era of stiife and discord Letwcen tie two sec tions, will bo overwhelmed by the inesisti ble power of public opinion. If S1M05 Camep.ok, bis son Don, and lhlr poli'cal retainers throughout the Ftate, have quietly decided, as it is reported they have done, that Henry M. Hoyt, of Luzerne county, shall be the Republican candidate for Governor, all the other fifteen or twenty patiiots, each one of whom supposed ibat the honor was specially reserved for him self, may as well prepare their letters of declination and put on the Cameron collar. In the approaching political contest in this State tbe Cameron clan has but one su preme object in view, to accomplish which it will exert all its energies and resort to all if s piculiar appliances, and that object is the le-eltctiou of Don to the United States Senate. Their objective point will be 'the Legislature, and in order to make that a sure thing, every other eonsideiation wil1 I be made to bend, or be brushed aside. If ! United States Senators were elected by a diiect vote of the people, Don Cameion would be defeated by a majority of more than fifty thousand, while under the pres ent infamous apportionment bill a Leg is-, latin e may be returnedthat will send him back to the Senate, where he has not yet and never will give any evidence of his fitness for the place. Luzerne county will elect one of the two Senatrrs and all of tbe nine Representatives to which she is en. titled at the next election.

Two engines, a baggage and three paasenger coaches went down on the western end cf the briJge, the er.gines touching theshore, three cars breaking through the ice, in thiee feet of water, and one car resting on end on the pier. Seven dead bodies were recovered at 2 A. M, and otheis were bc lievod 10 ba in tho wreck. The more seriously wounded were Rev. Thomas, Me hodist pastor of Winsted, both legs brokcu and side injured.

The Railroad Commissioners examined the bridge two months ago, and pronounc ed it safe. They will hold an investigation at once. The following article from the Pittsburgh Pott will be endorsed by every Democrat. 1 hat Uayes was not elected by the people is the accepted and intelligent judgment of the country, but the difficulty is that theie is no ti ibuual before which the fact could bo legally established. The Poet says : Men of 'all shade of politics may honestly differ na to t he mcst expedient and most ad vls atile course to lie put sued toward a President notoriously placed in office Miroujrh fraud. Whether Mr. Tildenor Mr. Hayes had beon made tr-Mdr'nt by the action or (he Electoral Commission, the whole proceeding whs new In our h istory. and iinknon n to t he Constitution. If re!nrded n hm Hceoinpuidiiient of, or an a ni'oesfMty caused by popular revolution, it miviht be defended, as '1 h.idieus 8teens do ri ndi d Republican uneoiistitut ional hois of Ootiarfus: ti'it on nccount of their Soirn I it v. but OCCHU8C they were expedient, and helped the 1 putty.

It. Hayes had been eh clod President. The civil nt showed, m moiiirst other thing's, thnt the people of tho United iStnt.-s me not cowards; and that they can mid will fixhi for their tiirhts. It ennnot therefore be denied that there was a sreat danger starinp the coun try in the face, when the Uu-clotal Coiiiimism.xi wa created by Con ress. The point .l points, and the real, solid, historical fact, which the citizens ot the I'nited Mutes muwt never lorjret, nd which, robed In truth, munt be handed down to all future sreiicraliot b of Americans, Is, that the Hepiiblic-nn party, through their lendei-B. wi:o should tir forevr held itilnmous, deliberately planned thst intended revolution and senatorial us jrpntion, and otdered the army ol tbe whole Union to the city of Wash ington, for the purpose of heii.fr used to sustain it. The popu'ar brunch of t'oi.jrress naturally shrank from I he responsibility ol n. nuum'n '.in such a bloody revolution as then seemed inev itable, it is now tix laf, and it would be use less to discus the individual conduct of the members or the House at that critical period. The country and the civilissed world know the hinting pr.lnt of the whole matter; which in. that Mr. 3'ilden was du ly elected, and that he was t heated out of his oltice. What remains now ia tn a nut shell. The lanre mcjority or the people never will, nnd they never should, rest contented under the political control of a President whom they t'id not elect, if it is possible to riabt t hemse! ves without a resort to revolution.

The Galena (111.) GazetU says: One of tbe most singular curiosities in nature that lias ever come under our observat ion ia the nest of a tarantula, a species of spider. It ia cotfs'i ucted of clay and stones, and is about four inches long and two inches wide. A bole three-quarters of an inch in diame ter passes through it lengthwise, one end or which ia closed by a trap door, beveell ed on the sides and top, and ii ting ho per fectly that when closed scarcely a s'gn of the opening is visible. The door is round ing at the top. perfectly straight at the bottom and working on a binge construct ed on the snme principle as the joints on which the door bangs. The nest is lined with a soft gosaamer substance, and is as round an if bored with an auger.

She was undoubted ly the oldest peisou iu this Sta;e, probably in the United Stales. The incidents of so rem u kubly long an experience 111 thia vile world can but bo of interest. Sho was bom January 10, 1TC9. You will better arineciat this walenient when you consider that she was twenty yeais old when Geoige Washington was inaugurated j first President of tbe United Slate, nnd j was old enough to have taken cognizance or all the events of tbe siniggle for i.Kle- oendence. S!:e w.s a contemporary ot ;a Dolc.iii and H elliuu ton. icea-eil was a native t.f Italy, having tuigra'.ed to this country in 1843. At the age of twenty years she was mar ried to Podesta, by whom she had eight children, four boys and four gills. All the children, save one, are still iu the old coun try. The youngest child, John Podesta, who is now in hia rifty-tirst year, is the proprietor of a beer saloon at No. 427 Main street. This son, w hen quite a youth, came to this couuliy, and during the gold ex citement of IS 47 went to California toeek his fortune. He was but moderately suc cessful, and a few years Ultr made bis home iu this ci'y. Before she cittne to America her hus band, Podesta, had died. Af:er wander ing for Boino months from place to place in this countiy, bhe finally joined her sou iu this city. A few years after coming here, and in the eighty-sixth year of her age, she was mar lied a second time to one Unetta, a wander ing musician, who died some yeate ago, since which time bbe has lived with ber son John. She was in possession of all ber mental faculties to tbe last, and befote this lata illness was as spiy on her feet aa many women fifty years her j-.tnior.

About two weeks ago a shabby tramp enteud a well-known music stoie on Main street, and asked pei mission 'o use a piano for a short time. The pi opt ietor refused at tiist, but afterwaid.s consented because the man's manners were much bet ter t ban his cloi lies. The tramp sat down and played a difficult coiiipr.sii ion with great ease and brilhatvcy. The pity and contempt of his listeners we: e at once changed to admiration. Pi ieods sprang up aiouiul him, and they ate tijing to get him once moie on his feet. His his tory, as told by the Parmer, is as follow: He belongs to a titled Gelii::ui f.tmily, atid had for hia gdmother and pttroness mo less a personage than the Queen of Wfcr tenihuig. II received a university educa- I ! tion and became a lawyer. He was at one ( time Consul to Paris from Wurteniburg, ; and nioven in the highest circles of the capital when Napoleon and Eugenie were outhe throne. Tho cause of his fall from all this high estate was dissipation of the wildest kind. As a result of his wild and teckles courses ho lost his oflicial position and his standing in socify, and not only squandered the income from his family es tate as fast as it came to him, but, in order to raise more moncx, told his claim to what should be duo him for twenty Keven years ahead. When be bad exhausted his j lesourcesat homo he came to this nonntrv, ! and engaged in some kind of business or j occupation in rsew loik. His ignorance of the language, or th dishonest v f his associates, or both, caused him to fail, how ever, and left bim utterly destitute. It was then that he started out from New York on the tramp, picking up an odd job now ant) then on the road, but growing all the while more ragged and wretched. His aimless tramping journey had brought him as far as lit irlgeport on the morning when he passed the music store, and was irresisti bly impelled, by a sight of the pianos, logo in and nsk to be allowed to play.
