The whole amount paid up to last week ag gregates $2,100,000, which includes the elaim of the Pennsylvania rail road, much the heaviest of all the demands against it. As a general rule all tho claims were compromised at amounts far below their face, and with one ex letion, which is a claim for oil destroy ed, it is said that the amount of losses jet to Le paid will not exceed 53,000.

If it is ever conceded that the State Committee has the right to direct its chairman to place upon the roll the names of certain dele gates from a county, no man can have much difficulty in foreseeing the results to which its exercise would inevitably lead. If. as t fie Patriot claims, the chairman of the State Committee lias no discretion in preparing the prelimina ry roll of the convention, but must ' "place on the roll only the names of ' delegates returned to him by the proper J authority,-' etc., and if Geo.

The State convention is superior both to the Com mittee and its chairman, and will take care, we have no doubt, that the dele gates from Philadelphia who arc regu larly elected shall get their seats, and we trust we w ill never again hear of the State Committee interfering in a matter with which it has no legitimate concern. , t, t .,,-,1 I Board'of Directors of the Pennsylvania d of I anions at a f-peaal Ra:,ro-aJ 0mpany fleeted bv 'he stock 1 on Saturday last to con- i i,0;,..1:j cn Tue.-d.iv. met on Wednesday Tut.

During a recent thunderstorm, the city hospital, located just east of Kan sas City, was burned to the ground. It contained eighteen inmates, several of them suffering fromdi-vase and wounds, and the scenes that ensued were horri ble The unfortunates were carriod or i crawled out into the rain storm, and some of them were unprotected ftir near lytwo hours. None were burned, but several will elie from exposure. The main building was destroyed and the patients were taken care of for the night in the woman's ward. As Henry Clark, ef Jefferson City, Mo., was driving to Cassville a stranger asked to ride, and his request was grant ed. The stranger proved a genial com panion, and treated Mr. Clark to a ci gar, which the latter puffed with enjoy- ! ment until be suddenly became di'zy, and nearly fell out of the w agon. The ; stranger caught him and set him down ' iu Die bottom of the wagon, and that was all that Mr. Clark rememliered un til two hours later, when he awoke to find that hlK pocket book, with S1G5, was gone. Likewise the stranger. i A special dispatch to the Chicago ' Times from Cairo, 111., dated March :2s, ' ssiys : During a gale yesterday the stern i line of the steamer Guiding Star became entangled in the wheel, ami three roust abouts, two colored and one white, were 1 ordered by the mate into the wheel to , loosen it. While the pilot, unaware of 1 their position, rang for the engineer to start, which he did, and before the men ' bail time to escape, they were caught by .. the revolving wheel and dashed into the water. The colored men did not reap- ; pear and the white man was picked up ; alive, but horribly mashed by the pad- , dies of tho wheel. He is not expected to recover. The oldest bishop in Catholic Christ endom at present ofliciat ing lohn. Arch bishop of Tuam entered his ninetieth year on Monday, March .". He still sails about the wild isles of the West, carrying his e-rozier and preaching in the native tongue. He holds his mon ster stat ions on the hillsides and takes care o! the interests of his arch-episcopal province. His Grace, who Ins lived and acted in more chapters of Hiber nian history than any man of the age. is engaged iu arranging his papers and his literary notes in such a form that w hen--possibly early in the next cen tury he shall go over to Die majority his memoirs may easily be written. James Creese, a native of England, came to this country s-ven years as-o, leaving his wife, son and rlancrhrer be hind him. II is son and w ife followed him to this countiy poon afterward, and the farnily settled at Bergen Point. N. . J. They intended to bring tho girl from : England as soon as they could save mon ey enough to defray the expense, but when the sum ha ! been saved. Mrs. : Creese became sick and died doctor's bills arid funeral expenses ate up the fund. The son aud father areumu'.ated a second fund for the wm" purpose, when the son (lied, and tho money was again diverted.

A speei.U teloirram from Kittanning to the Pittsburg 7;ki'c?. dated Sunday last, says: One of th" largest raves dis covered since tho M;irai:M'h, e;f Kentuc ky, was found on the farm of Casper Flick, in Madison township, Armstrong county, by some ore? dickers in th early part of iast week. A j arty of twenty from Kittanning explored it to-day, and pronounce it one of the greatest natural wonders e.-f the age. The entrance to the cave is betwee n twodarge rocks, and it is aimo.-t impossibe for a man to creep in. ; The height ranges from six tei twenty fee. The cave is divided into roems, the pi it it ion bedng crystallized 1 i me stone of which the roof is also hamring full. Five balls of twin-' were unraveled, so t hat Dm party exploring could not lose themselves. It is thought to be four or live miles in length. A party from Kit tanning will explore it to the end this week. George Smith, confined in the Williamsport i;ii! on the charge of kii! incr Andrew Miller, learning that Mrs. Miller and her children bad made state merits charging him with the murder, hr.s made a full confession of his guilt, lie states that, having decoyed the old man to the barn by making a noise, he laid in wait with a piece of hard wood i edgings, five feet in length, ami struck him a powerful blow on Die back o Di ! head, which felled him to the ground. The old man only exclaimed : "Oh I"' a few times, when he struck him again and he was dead. He then went to the house, got a clothes-line from Mrs. Miller, which she had all ready for him, , returned and swung Miller up in the barn all aleme. He then went to the house and teiid the woman all i.bout it. She cautioned the children to say noth ing about their father's murder. They : have both confessed, however, and their statements agree with that of Smith, so . that the story of tlui atrocious crime is complete. Smith claims that the v.'o- ; man insisted that he should murder her husband, suggested th plan to decoy ; him out of the house, and proposed ; hanging him up with the clotlips-line? to ' allay suspicion and fixed upon that night foi the commission of the crime. A yocno wife cf IS years maf.e her exit from'this life of troubles rur.l cares, at Pittsburir, ly means of a revolver. The husband, only two years older, had agreed with her to do the same, but she anticipated his fiction. An investiga tion brought to light the fact that t his youthful couple entered into the man ied state against the remonstrances of thir parents, that they had no means of sup port, and that tho dream of wedded bliss wat soon dispelled by the hum-drum of every day lifo and the necessities that come to all, however high or humble their stations in Jifo may le.
