Michael Davitt sailed from Xew
York for Ireland 011 Wednesday. Dur
ing his brief stay in this country he de
livered addresses in ten cities, the fur
thest western point visitel by him be
ing Chicago. In oiy next issue we will
publish hia eloquent speech delivered at
Troy, X. Y on the 4th of July.
(Je.v. Skobeleff, Ilusski's greatest
military figure, died suddenly of heart
disease at Moscow, on Friday last. His
age was only thirty-nine years, but his
memorable deeds of valor at the soige
of Plevna, during the war between Rus
sia and Turkey in 177, spread his mil
tary fame throughout the civilized
world.
That thorough gentleman and excel
lent journalist, Alfred Sanderson. Esq.,
late of the Shippensburg (Fa.) Cltnnirh
has accepted a itosition on the Dcihi
Pre?, whero his lung recognized talents
as a newspaper writer will have a much
wider field for their display. That his
future nr.j be all that he deserves is our
oiuceie wi.-h, and more than that no
man can ask.
The Democratic candidates met on
Tuesuay night at the office of George
M. I)al!a3, ;in Philadelphia, to choose
the Chairman of the state Committee.
Ail. were present except Judge Clark and
Mr. Elliott, and they were represented.
After a full discussion, lasting until 11
o'clock, W. L". Ilensel, of Lancaster,
was unanimously elected chairman. The
selection's one that was eminently fit
to have been made, though we would
Lave been as well pleased to see Chair
man Logert continued.
Ir is a f ;ct susceptible of proof that
Ireland is sending more children to
school to-day in proportion to population
thau any other country on earth, not
even excepting the Unite! States. Here
aro the figures : Population about live
and a half tuitions; children attending
sehooi, a Jittio over C'UQ million. (lJJ,
000) ; or one child at school to a little
less than five and a-half of the entire
population. Xo other country in the
world can furnish such an educational
exjihit. Ireland, too, ig poor, and has 1
Xio compulsory law.
Guiteac, the assassin of President
Garfield, was hung in Washington City
cn Friday, the oOlh ult., at 12.40 i m
The geneial belief was that the miscre
a'.t, would weaken before-the supreme
moment, bat he seems to have gone to
the gallows with that air of braggadoeia
Which he tlisplayedthrot;ghout his trial
and imprisonment. The body was al
lowed to Lang a hV.f-hour. when it was
cut down and buried in the jail yard.
Subsequently it wa:; resum e ted and is
cow understood to Le in the Medical
Museum belonging to the Government,
An examination Liable lv Dr. Lamb
failed to reveal anything abnormal in
the construction of Guiteau's brain. In
Other words, ho was morally responsible
for tho commission of the crime for
which ho su.T.-red.
jvli uiji. t.u an oi me live nominations
tomposiug the Deuiociatic state ticket
are unexceptionable and eminently fit
to have been ma le, we cannot refruiu
from especially congratulating the Dem
ocracy of the state iipnii the nomination
for JuJ" of the Supreme Court of so
clear-h..ided a mau as Silas M. Clark'
of Iudiana county. In western Penn
sylvania, where he is well know n, there
is no diversion of opinion regarding In3
exceptional qualifications for an able
discharge of the high duties of the office
forwhich he has been nominated. When
Chief Justice Shaiswood and Thomas
M. Mar-hall, the one an eminent jurist
am! a Democrat, and the other a dis
ti.irfuLhcd lawyer and a Republican,
Slid ooth, then tore, conipeteut judges,
became they know the man. cordially
approve Mr. Clark's selection for the
place, any extended argument in hi3 be
half would lje entirely superfluous.
IT was ananged that the candidates
on the Democratic State ticket should
meet in Philadelphia on Wednesday
last for the purpose of appointing a
Chairman of the State Cemmittee. and
that a strong pressure would be brought
to Lear in favor of the selection of some
gentlemen from that city. "We will
know what was done lefore our paper j
goes to press. If there is any sound re a '
Sin why Mr. Bog. it, the present chair- '
man, should not be appointed, we have
liefer seen it rtaltd. He has certainly I
discharged his duties with ability and!
ldstry, and his residence in the anth- ;
racite n -ivii, where Cameron and his I
fcsrichmen expect to wheedle a consider-
able number of Democrats into the sup- i
port of Beaver is a very strong argu- i
nunt i i favor of Mr. Bogert's continu- j
&nce in the iH.ition. We never knew !
a Phladelpbia politician, of either par- '
ty, who knew much about prominent i
and active paity men in different coun
ties of the State, and especially in the
webtern part of it. That kind of know- '
lec'ge is essentially important in a chair- '
man cf the Committee, and Mr. Boyert j
possesses it. The truo plan would be to '
let the chairman of the Democratic City j
Committee, who seems to understand j
his business, take charge of the cam-'
paigu m that city, -nnd Mr. Bogert, or
some man like him, take the balance of
the State in his charge, with his head
quarters at Ilarrisburg. Jjuch an ar-
mnjpmmt woi.i.i i i
, , jmiguiciii i'iu- j
cuce the most beneficial results, and we
trust that the state candidates w ill come
to the same conclusion.
I he proceedings of the Democratic
State Convention which met at Ilarris
burg two weeks ago last Wednesday,
will be found elsewhere in our paper.
We watched with more than ordinary
interest the result of the election of del
egates to the convention as they occur
red in different counties of the State,
and although in one sense the wish was
father to the thought, still a survey of
the whole field produced in our mind
the firm and well settled belief, that
the nomination of James II. Hopkins,
of Pittsburg, for Governor, was reason
ably assuned, It is the right of a news
paper editor to propose, but a State con
vention alone has the power to dispose.
It is the tribunal of last resort, and po
litical success can only be achieved by
absolute acqueiscense in its declared
will. While, however, the nomination
i for Governor of Robert E. Fattison, of
! Philadelphia, was not the entertainment
! to which we expected to be invited, it
bids fair to prove in the end, judging
rrom tne cordial approval it has met
from the Democracy of the State, to be
the strongest one which could have
been made. Although his name is as
familiar as a household word among , the
taxpayers of Philadelphia, he is com
paratively a new man in State politics,
and like a new broom will make a clean
sweep. He is not yet thirty-two years
of age, and for one so young his politi
cal career has been very remarkable. A
man like Fattison, who, in 177, when
he was but twenty-seven years old, was
elected to the most important and re
sponsible office in Philapelphia, that of
City Controller, by a minority of 5,004,
the Republican Stafe ticket receiving at
' tne sarnP faction a majority of
6,000,
and who three years afterwards, at the
Presidential election of 1SS0, was 're
elected by a majority of 13.r93, has es
tablished a record that even a veteran
in politics might well feel an honorable
pride. Mr. Fattison has shown himself
to be a born reformer in the methods of
administering an office which directly
concerns every taxpayer in Philadelphia
a reformer not only in name, but in
substance and in fact. Absolutely hon
est himself, he is necessarily the sworn
foe of corruption in others. Such a man
w ith a reform and retrenchment legisla
ture to aid and sustain him as Governor,
is imperatively demanded to cut up by
the roots the profligate expenditure of
public money by the legislature, as well
as in all the other departments of the
State government. We have long iook
ed forward to the time when some Dem
ocratic Hercules would be in a position
. and possess the courage to turn the river
, of reform through the Augean stables
I at Ilarrisburg and thoroughly cleanse
i them. It is a consummation devoutly
! t be wished, and Mr. Pattison's con
I spicuous record as a practical and inflex
: ibie friend of thorough reform is the
highest and strong -t reason why the
I people of the State .-honld ratify his
nomination at the polls. His election
, will lie the grave of Cameronism, and
IViverism, of Quayism and Tom Coop
erisrn ; it will end the one man power
forever, and will usher in an adminis
tration whose highest aim will be ,the
promotion of the best interests of the
people.
Tin: Cameron organ at Ilarrisburg,

nomination for the third time of A, J.
Col born ns a member of the House from
Somerset county, saysof him : "He was
an able and faithful representative, and
well deserves the endorsement of his
people.7' A year ago last winter, when
the judicial apportionment bill passed !

Fultoil "were tnatle a jiiilicial district.
Colburn was a member of the Judicial
apportionment committee in the House
and was said at the time to be anxious i
although no other i-erson was, to ba j
madePresident judge;of the district. By
some process which we were never able
to comprehend, he induced the House
committee to strike Fulton county from
the district, leaving it to embrace Sotn-
. , r i i- i ii i
eis t and Bedfe.nl counties and attach
j. tiuoii couiiiy ui vuaiii. .fii ouo
I who will look at the map of the State
i will see that Franklin county, having
itself tho ne":0hsa'ry number of inhabi
j tants to entitle it under the constitu
; tion to a separate judge, is located be
j tween Fulton an I Adams, just as Blair
' county is located between Cambria and
Huntingdon. What ought to be done
I with a member of the Legislature who
i would so outrage common sense and
I legislative decency as to advocate the for
; mation of a judicial or any other kind of
: district out ot Cambria and Huntingdon
I counties ? If the bill had not been ve
toed by Gov. Hoyt this Somerset states
man would have been wholly responsi
ble for the unparalled monstrosity of a
judicial district, both counties compos
ing it being separated from each other
by an intervening district. "We under
take to say that any member of the leg
islature who would attempt for any
imaginable reason to do with a judicial
apportionment bill what A. J. Colburn
did, is a disgrace to that body, and
ought never again be iormitted to out-
rage the public sense of justice and pro
priety in shaping legislation at Ilarris
burg. But he will be re-elected, for
Somerset is a Republican county, and
her Republican voters will again com
mission Colburn to show his hand in
manipulating a judicial apportionment
bill at next winter's session ; but we
venture to say he will not again try the
experiment of making a district out of
Fultou and Adams.

LETTER FROM M1XXESOTA.
East Minneapolis, July 8, 1832.
Friend McFike In my last letter
I promised to continue my sketch of
Hastings and other notable places. Has
tings is pleasantly situated on the west
bank of the Mississippi river, some
twenty miles from St. Paul. It is a
flourishing place, all things considered,
but has still plenty of room for improve
ment. Hastings is the seat of justice
of Dakota county, and possesses a Court
House which would be a credit to a
much older city. Several manufacturing
establishments are located there, at the
head of which stands the'Gardner Roll
er Mills,' situated at the falls of the
Vermillion, with a capacity of 500 bar
rels per diem. This mill has recently
been refitted, and is one of the best in
the land.
About eight miles south of Hastings
resides onr mutual friend, Mr. William
O Connell, who owns in the neighbor
hood of 500 acres of fine fertile land
which is susceptible of the highest cul
vation. Last year his crops (exclusive
Df com, of which he obtained a large
'f l?re?ateJ near,r 9- bushels.
Mr. O Counell is highly pleased with
his western home, and well he may be
for it would be as difficult to find a more
desirable spot to live in as it would be to
find a more courteous gentleman than
our worthy friend O'Connell. Mr W
H. Elder lives three-quarters of a mile
west of Mr. O'Connell, and he too pos
sesses an excellent farm in a high state
of cultivation and very pleasantly situ
l ed'.r- ?'lder foIIs the business
or well digging in connection with far-
anu is ooing well 5nancially and
otherwise. (Xo pun intended.) Mr.
James Elder resides at Cannon Falls
seventeen miles south of Hastings. lie
also owns ft valuable farm and a fine res-'df,lic?-.!,IIe13
extensively engaged in
well drilling and pump business and in
the erection of wind-mills for pump
ing water, etc. 1

Some twenty mites from Moorhead is

is surrounded bva rich farming country
Here our friend Michael McDunn car

praise of the Red river country. There

will speak of in future letters.

The latest contkibution to the

avers that its editor "can name scores
of clerks in Washington City who have
for years refused to contribute to the
Republican campaign fund, but, on the
contrary, have contributed to the Dem
ocratic fund, and they have not beon
discharged, and are not liable to b e dis

cies that Republicans rs well as Demo
crats, spoilsmen as well as reformers,
will unite in the cry of 2ame I Name I'

to produce the names, the general reply
will be that made in au evil hour by the
young passengers n the good ship Sairy

TriE Ohio Valley, between Steuben
ville and Moundsvilie is in mourning
over the terrible disaster at(Mingo J unc
tion through the collision of the Scioto
and the Lomas. But something moie
than mourning is called for. The case
was cleaily one of reckless sacrifice of
life. The testimony already taken thows
that the crash occurred simply because
both steamers were determined to take
the same side ot the channel, and that
each proceeded to do so without waiting
to observe whether the other had con
sented to sheer off. Both pilots then
simultaneously reversed their engines ;
but it was too late, and within three
minutes the Scioto had sunk. ' If there
is any law in that region to protect hu
man life, it should be invoked to punish
all who can in any way be held respon
sible tor this slaugher- y. T. Sun.

TKIZE ESSAYS.
MR. WANAMABElt'S EMPLOYE TELL "WHAT
IS THE J4KST WAY TO WAIT ON
A .CUSTOMEll."
About three months airo, Mr. John "ana
maker offered to his employes at the Cratid
Hepot a series ot live prizes, ranging from i
$o0 to $10 tor the best essay on tlie subject, ;
"What is the Best Way to Wait on a Custo- j
iner?" Over eighty essays were sent to the '
committee of pulses, and last evening a larsre j
audience, consisting of Mr. Wanamaker's I
employes, assembled at the Grand, Depot to ,'
enjoy the exeicises incident to the award of !
ttie prizes. I
After an enjoyable programme of vocal i
solos, duets, quartettes and choruses, and i
addresses by P.ev. . H. Tiffany, D. D , and '
John Fi' Id, of Young, Smyth, "Field & Co., j
the esay which secured the prize that by
Miss Ma'ry Brewer whs read. Miss Brewer j
assumed that the foundation principles in a
salesman or saleswoman are: First, true
loyalty to her employer; second, lovaity to
the customer, with tlie legion of elements
implied in them, cordiality, politeness, hon
est, tact, patience, perseverance, decision,
confidence, willingness and enthusiasm, each
in its turn being requisite, some occasionally,
others alwajs. The second prize was award
ed to v m
to Wm. H. Brokaw, the third to Thomas i
Bennett, the fourth io James Clarencv. i
and the fifth to J. ". Cot son.
In a brief address Mr. Wanamaker ex
pressed his gratification at the success that
had attended his scheme of cettiug his sales
people to concentrate their thoughts unnn a
suhject of so much importance to bitii and
them, and intended that the idea should tie
hereafter elaborated. He suggested that in
so large a family, numbering ' ?,.V0 people,
the members might not only irstruct and
entertain each other, hut aid even them in
times of need. He spoke of the excellent
results that would attend t he organization of
a beneficial or insurance society among; the
employes, and showed that if the latter w-ould
only put ten cents a month out of their wages,
it would probably be sufficient to aid even
other cases of sickness, accident, or death.
In conclusion, he tillered to pav the expenses
of a secretary, or whoever else might be
needed, in order to make such anoiganiza
tion go smoothly, and to contribute fi.ono to
the fund as a starter. The proposition was
enthusiastically received, hut Mr. Wanama
ker suggested that tlie employes should not
decide hastily, but wait and consider it care
fully. I'hiladelphia Hiilleiin, June 10.
