lidence is expressed at the Fepublican
hea hpiart-rs in New York that the vic
tory in Maine lu-i!a will prove even
greater in proportion than "hat in Ver

the National Committee, after the Maine
defeat pretended that he never had much
confidence in th" State from the tone of
Flaine's letteis to him, the same Flaine
on the day after the ( lection telegraph- ' than 2,000 less than it was in lsTJ, not

Trihi've, that arsenal of all manner of
forgeries and lies, has published in its
columns a'"- .hniJr of this Confederate
Hag as an evidence of the "rebel' sym
pathies and proclivities of the whole ;
iM.m.lf- of thp Stjite of Arkansas. To at-
i"i
i tempt in this dishonest and unmanly i
; way to injure an entire community ought ,
i to damn that journal in the estimation i
1 of all decent people. All the lesser or- j
' gans of the God and morality party, the '
! .lohnstown T,-Unu of course included,
! re-echo the mendacious howl of the New
; York organ, ;ind belch forth their foul ;
j slanders against the Democrats of a i
i whole State for the innocent mistake of
j one man, who was a true L'nion soldier, i
i while his mean and cowardly assailants j
! were lighting the rebels at a safe and ;
secure distance. This, however, has
i been the method resorted toby the (Jar- ,
: field organs ever since the preset:, cani

tinned to the end.
Tin: most remarkable meeting of the
campa'gn took place in Pittsburgh on '
last Saturday night, at Old City Hall. ;
It was conducted by llepublicaus who ,
are supporting ('eneral Hancock. The j
President of the meeting was Marshall !
Swartzwfclder, the well known Pittsburg i
lawyer, with one hundred and twenty j
Republicans, w ho are now Hancock men, j
aoting as Vice Presidents. The speak- '
ers were John V. Forney, Fenjaniin F. t
Futler and (ien. A. L. Pearson, all of! trom the Hands ot ihc spoilers. l-.very-,

canized which was presided over by Ma-
jor F. W. Lyon and was addressed by
Judge John s. M Cahiiont, of Venango
county, and W. ('. Stilwagon, all Hop
pers from ( iari'icld to Hancock. Seven
of the Vic Presidents of the meeting
, were, colored men, Paul J. Carson, who
; served under ("eneral Futler in the late
' war, being amonj the number. Could
. the Republicans anywhere, in all this
broad country gL-t un a meeting in any
, degree approaching tiiis, composed of
, former Democrats who are now support
ing ('arlieid ? Nut much, even it all
the thirty-eight states were raked with
a line tooth comb. Tho Fepublican pa-
pors will of course say that th-y are bet -t
ter off without these voters tha.n with
them that they are men of no influence
: and will not help Hancock's cause.
This undoubtedly is a very large straw
for Allegheny county, and clearly shows

The one hundred and fifty Vice Presi
dents at the great Hancock meeting in
Pittsburgh on Saturdav. all of whom
i,ave heretofore voted the Fepublican
ticket, was very large sized political
straw, lake inc. election in .Maine, u
was an event which marked the rising
of a llood that is destined to sweep over
the'entire land like a mighty whirlwind.
The result in Maine settles to a greater
degree, however, the destiny of the No

the part of the Democracy of the country
the wrong of lST'i will bo righted and
the government of the republic redeemed

The several Republican conventions
of Philadelphia have gone through the
solemn form of nominating the m-.n des
ignated by tlie bosses, and the rank tin. I
!i!e of the party are expected to vo;e for
them becau.ie they are ti.e "regular nom
inees."' No unusual amount of .shout
ing, cutting and ballot-box smashing
was indulged in at tiie Republican pri
maries, but there was more than the
usual amount of cheating. The faith
ful who attended the primaries had -little
left to excite them, and what ballot
box stuffing and doctoring of returns
was done was .simply by way of keeping
their hands in. The county ticket bail
been selected some time ago, and the
candidates for the Legislature had been
appointed bv the same sovereign author

this city there will be but one set of con

the rules of the regulars or MeOowan

place and the conventions will be held

Tiie I leiiiocrals of Philadelphia have set

that body will select the tcmjioiary chair

tions. For District Attorney and City
Controller the present incumbents, Ila

out opposition. For Congress there is
not a single Democratic aspirant in any
of the four Republican districts, while
in the Third district Randall is without
op)Hsition and will be re-elected by a
larger majority than he ever before re
ceived. Major Moses Veale could Ik

I "Providence has been very kind to me in
1 prolonging my life and blessing me with
) health ami strength. I have lived to he 101
. years old. This is a great nge. In my ear
' lier days I took an active part in politics. I
have mingled with your fathcts and irraml
' fathers and great-grandfather on occasions
i like this in days lone gone in the past, I
voted lor Thomas Jefferson for President in
! isoo. We had the same question up then
that we have now. whether this was a (Jov
eminent of unlimited powers or atiovern
ment of a lew simple functions expresslj
cranted by the Constitution. Mr. Jefferson
contended that the great ma of the powers
of our (Joveriiment remained with the States,
while Mr. Adams and his party contended
for a strong central ("overnment, to override
1 the State 7-overnmciits. I never missed a
Presidential election. I voted twice for Jef

these millions are taken from overfed p!a -e-men

enoiiiih to h'iy the whole people is the o'le-r
fact that the indignation ot the people at ,-;i. h

practices are new. Thev come from the

A ( " rkat Ci iaixiTV. An extraordina: v
relic of ant i juity, ot 11:1 age so remoi.- that
tlie human mind can hardly grasp its limits,
was last week found by John Pi ice in Strat
ford's lime (.iiarry near Mt. Hock Mills.
That it is a petrified human foot impresses
itself upon the mind at tirst sight, and the
more it is examined the .stronger becomes the
conviction that it is so. It Is nine inches
long, and measures six ami a half inches to
where it is brokeli ofT. bears the exact pro
Mirtiou of a liM.t from the' big to Ihe little toe,
shows the protruding bones up to the ankle
and above that a few inches of the leg. Tho
sole of the foot is almost level, proving that
the being to whom it had lele.nged either
walked barefooted, or wore sandals or moc
casins. It nmy be the foot of an Indian,
though not likely' ; it iiia3- have belonged to
the mound-builders, or to a lace long prece
ding tliein, but that it is a relic lx-aiing the
impress of thousands of years, can hard!
admit of a doubt. It is a great curiosity and
has already excited the wonder of nil who
Iiav3 seen it. In connection with this wc
may mention tlie fact, given as years ago by
the late Dr. Joseph Henderson, that the only
fossil Trilobire that had ever been discovered
up to that time in this region was taken from
tiiis same belt of rock but a few hundred
yards from the place tiiis singular relic .was
found. The trilohite is found in large num
bers in the granite (juarries of Massachusetts,
Trenton Falls, X. Y., Lebanon, Ohm, and
also in Xorthern Europe. It is the home of
a group of fossil crustaceans, so called frrm
' tiie three lobes into which the body is divided
